Can young Jews give as good as they get?
On the last day of a Birthright alumni mission to Israel last year, participants got a taste of something that was not a part of their initial trip to Israel: a fundraising pitch.
Birthright is credited with reframing the formative Jewish years for 200,000 young North Americans who have received the gift of a free trip to Israel over the last 11 years. The experience also put them squarely on the receiving end, and some wonder if it has also imbued this generation with a sense of Jewish entitlement.
But this group of 25 alumni — who each paid only $500 to go on the mission organized by the Jewish Federation of Greater Washington — donated $14,000 to Federation while on the trip, signaling their readiness to pay it forward. The same group raised $22,000 for Federation in 2011, and, on top of that, members of the group organized a photo exhibit to benefit a program for Ethiopians they had visited in Israel, bringing in hundreds of people and raising thousands of dollars.
"I think Millennials will act and become those funders, but only after they see where the money is going, and after they've been inspired," said Rachel Cohen Gerrol, a Birthright alumna who led the mission and is a founder of The Nexus: Global Youth Summit, an organization for young philanthropists.
Figuring out how to get these 20- and 30-somethings — alternatively called Gen Y, Next Gen or Millennials — to pivot from receiving to giving Jewish philanthropy is a challenge whose outcome will define the Jewish future.
As teens, Jewish Millennials were beneficiaries of the Jewish community's "anything to get you through the door" response to their alarming indifference to Jewish involvement — free pizza to come to Jewish clubs, free Hillel Shabbat dinners, services and events in college, capped off with a free trip to Israel. Raised by parents focused on building their self-esteem and their college resumes, they turned out to become more dedicated to community service and more diverse, tolerant and fearlessly active than generations before them. But, they have shown little patience for formalities, bureaucracy and hierarchical structures, believing passionately in their own power.
How that will play out in terms of financial giving is still unfolding.
"There is an incredible amount of education and awareness that needs to happen," said Irit Gross, who heads the Birthright Israel Foundation's Alumni and Young Leaders Campaign, a fundraising department founded last year. "If you can create awareness that other people have done things for you, and if you can make a good enough case for giving, and get people to understand that we're not looking for millions and that every $18 check counts because collectively we can make a difference, then it actually clicks that they've received a gift and want to do whatever they can to pay it forward and make a difference for the future. It's about changing the mindset of giving," she said.
The largest challenge, to be sure, is that the vast majority of 20- and 30-something Jews are not actively connected to an organized Jewish community, and so have no reason to give Jewishly. For the small percentage that has a strong Jewish identity, Judaism might be one of many pieces of an identity that may or may not rise to the top as they determine where to focus their giving.
Gerrol asserts that because this is a generation so focused on community service, to give them a Jewish context for that work and for their charitable giving might accomplish the dual goals of making them stronger Jews while also making them bigger givers.
"I think we are plagued as a generation by a picture in our minds of what it looks like and sounds like and feels like to be Jewish — Federation happy hours, pro-Israel rallies and High Holy Days services. But I think our generation is actively choosing not to opt into those activities in big numbers," said Gerrol, who sits on the board of The Jewish Federation of Greater Washington. "It seems like the Jewish community needs to work to connect the dots between the values that Millennials are already living by and how those values are Jewish. …We need to reframe the Millennial experience."
Next summer, Gerrol hopes to take 100 Jewish philanthropists to Rwanda through a new organization she founded, the Olam Project, which will bring young Jews to rebuild in areas torn apart by genocide.
Gerrol was inspired to found the Olam Project after she realized at a Nexus: Global Youth Summit that, of the 400 young wealth holders there, many were Jewish.
"I started asking people, 'How does being Jewish inspire or influence where you give your money?' And the resounding answer was there was no correlation. One is about my family and where I celebrate holidays, and the other is where I spend the money I earn," said Gerrol.
The 2011 Millennial Donor Study, conducted by nonprofit consultants Johnson, Grossnickle and Associates and Achieve, surveyed 3,000 mostly college-educated 20- to 35-year-olds, not specifically Jews. It found that 93 percent had donated money to nonprofits in 2010, and that most gave small gifts to multiple organizations. Nearly 80 percent volunteered time, and while they do their giving through online mechanisms and research the organizations online, they are most likely to give to organizations that are endorsed by peers or to which they are personally connected. Eighty-five percent reported they are most driven to give by a compelling mission or cause.
They want to know how their money is being spent, and to believe they can trust an organization to use the money to make the impact they seek.
In its first foray into turning to alumni as funders and fundraisers, The Birthright Israel Foundation has found some of this out firsthand.
The Birthright Israel Foundation doesn't solicit alumni in the first 12 months after participants return, other than giving them the opportunity to donate back some or all of their $250 deposit. In 2010, more than 1,000 participants donated $165,000 of their deposits.
While the Birthright Israel Foundation works with Birthright Next — the alumni programming arm — for the most part, Birthright Next stays away from fundraising and focuses on building on the positive Israel experience with opportunities for engagement and networking. A Birthright Next office in Los Angeles has two full-time employees and eight community engagement fellows, who plan events and meet personally with some of the 18,000 alumni in Los Angeles.
In June 2010, The Birthright Israel Foundation set up the Alumni and Young Leaders Campaign to reach out to the maturing population of alumni — the oldest alumni are now 37. In 2010, the alumni campaign raised $230,000 from 1,400 past participants, and so far this year it has already reached nearly 1,900 alumni and young donors, who contributed a total of $272,000.
Most of the alumni fundraising for Birthright has been through personal solicitations with select participants — those who stepped forward wanting to give back after the trip transformed their lives, or those who had been identified as potential donors or having connection to potential donors.
Birthright's fundraising material lets past participants know that tens of thousands of young people are wait-listed because of lack of funds and gives them specific giving targets — $36 for a night in a Bedouin tent for one participant, or $150 to pay for five people to hike Masada at sunrise.
But the campaign revealed some surprising results, too.
"Although this generation lives and breathes e-mail and handheld devices, we have not yet had tremendous success from e-mail campaigns," Gross said.
Jeffrey Solomon, president of The Andrea and Charles Bronfman Philanthropies, said the Millennials who choose to engage in philanthropy fall into two extremes.
"The first extreme is the growth of Twitter philanthropy — when there's a spontaneous, almost impulsive giving, whether to the Haiti earthquake or because it's Justin Beiber's birthday," Solomon said.
"There is a second group that studies philanthropy a bit more, and thinks about it more, and engages with a quest for information that has the potential to make them far more effective in philanthropy than their parents and grandparents, because in every aspect of life, information is available and they want that same information about their philanthropy, and want to be certain they are making the impact they want," Solomon said.
Solomon has worked with the population through two organizations the Bronfman Philanthropies spawned — 21/64, which guides family foundations in involving all the generations, and Slingshot, which produces a Zagat-type guide to innovative Jewish organizations.
Slingshot was founded in 2003, and in 2007 it added the Slingshot Fund, composed of 30 young philanthropists who pool their resources to support a subset of undercapitalized organizations featured in the Slingshot guide. Over the last five years, the fund has distributed $1.8 million to organizations from the list, giving members experience in analyzing institutions and making thoughtful grants.

Restaurante Veggie House
in San Jose, Costa Rica
Jan 1 13
If you are trying to travel vegan in Costa Rica, you won't find many restaurants that feature that word on their menu. My son and I wanted to check out Veggie House because we were staying at Hostel Bekuo near San Pedro mall in San Jose, and we saw the name on a map. The restaurant is only a couple of blocks from the hostel, right next to the main entrance of the mall.
We were feeling hungry, so we went there right after we arrived at the hostel, and it proved to be our favorite place to eat in all of Costa Rica. Every menu item is a visual treat and worth a gourmet rating. We felt very special each time we went there, breakfast, lunch or dinner. If you are in San Jose, you really need to try this place out. The staff is so friendly and the food is just the right blend of heartiness and nutrition and presented so attractively. Prices are very affordable, scaled to attract anyone who wants great vegan food, whether local or international travelers. The restaurant looks a bit small on first impression, but some of the seating is hidden from view. If we lived near there, we would be definitely be regulars. Be sure to ask what the featured menu items are for the day, and save some room for some decadent looking dessert. They do great take out too, if you want to pack a lunch for the sightseeing.
Food Fight!
in Portland, Oregon
Aug 8 13
OK, I'm lucky to be close enough to drop by regularly, but I love these people. Food Fight is an attitude, note the exclamation point. This store is about providing vegan alternatives so you can stop buying animal derived products. They are trying to show the public how easy it is to do that by putting everything in one place. Sometimes the prices are slightly higher than the big stores, but it's because they don't get the big volume price breaks. I honor that and try to buy those items from them whenever I can, because they don't represent a sellout compromise to carry stuff that vegans consider unethical just to make money.
Their current store is a real effort at trying to be the best they can be, with fresh fruit and veggies and quite an array of staples and munchies. It's easy to be an informed shopper there and choose healthy options, but it's also possible to load up on snacks when that's what you want. Yes, I want a vegan twinkie as a self reward once in a while.
Whatever you buy at Food Fight! is a vote for a better future for animals and the planet. I'm never sorry to shop there and support the food sources and employees making a living off goods and services that I can really believe in, because I know the owners and I know that their motivation is to help change the world.
Go there or go to their website and give them a try.

Nourishing the soul
Take a virtual tour of the new Art Museum of WVU before you visit in person.
What you once knew as an empty lot beside the Creative Arts Center has since sprouted brick and glass and grown into the Art Museum of West Virginia University.
For decades, there were those who dreamed of the University's first art museum. For decades, WVU amassed an art collection of more than 3,000 works, visited by scholars and students with appointments. A consensus built that it was time for a place where children could take field trips, college students could have a space to imagine and professors could make more connections between science and art.
When the late 2000s came, most people weren't thinking about building art museums. They were thinking about staying afloat in an uncertain economy. WVU believed the museum would become real so strongly that the University and the College of Creative Arts selected architects and a museum staff and talked to supporters who also had a vision of the museum that wasn't there yet. They gave their art, they gave their energy, they gave from their pocketbooks.
When the crowds rushed inside on Aug. 25, decades of dreams became reality. There are still more dreams unrealized — the dreams of what this place will do.
At the museum opening, members of the class of 2033, so tiny that their feet barely touched the floor, sat on small stools. The WVU Nursery School students assembled on the patio of the sandy-colored building are inevitably going to grow, much like the museum has. And as they grow, they will have this place to experience art.
"The arts, quite simply, nourish the soul," WVU President E. Gordon Gee told the museum's visitors on opening day. "They make our lives richer, more compassionate, more fulfilled. They are what makes us human."
Inside the walls, you can catch people being very human. They stop on the stairway and hold aloft camera phones to capture their favorite vignettes — a sailboat, a face, a heart in a bottle — in the two-story mural painted on the wall by graffiti artists How and Nosm. As they climb the staircase, they approach it from different literal and figurative vantage points.
At the back of the downstairs gallery is an Andy Warhol print in black, known as "Untitled, 1974." Each passerby in succession crouches down and then crouches some more to see the light reflect a Campbell's Soup can or a Brillo box, or both.
"It's almost like a hologram, isn't it?" one visitor asks.
"Oh, now this one is too cool!" another says.
You may not know what you're looking for on the second-floor gallery. But you'll see it anyway. Framed by an alcove's entrance is a Blanche Lazzell untitled canvas made in 1934, a bit taller than an average-sized human. Morgantown folks don't really need a title for it. It's clearly depicting WVU's Stewart Hall, what's now known as Wesley United Methodist Church downtown and glass factory smokestacks that dotted the landscape.
Lazzell graduated from WVU with a fine arts degree in 1905. She was a West Virginian who went on to be one of the greats in printmaking, part of the Provincetown collective on Cape Cod. The museum exhibit creates a sanctuary for 13 of her works in an alcove that uplifts her art and serves as a reminder that she was one of us.
She was not likely to have thought of the class of 2033, but she can remind them, the class of 2019 and everyone else who visits the museum that creative inspiration can make a future, a more meaningful life and an afternoon that leaves you with a full heart and a nourished soul.
The Art Museum of WVU is open from 12:30-4:30 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday. There is no charge for admission. Go online: artmuseum.wvu.edu.
"It was while attending West Virginia University at the dawn of the 20th century that Blance [Lazzell] developed a passion for art that changed her life. And now at this great University and at this great art museum we can experience art's life-changing power ourselves as we view works by not only one of our own but by Pablo Picasso and Andy Warhol and many other important artists."
"[Art] allows communities to interact with the University in different ways, adding to the cultural vitality that makes Morgantown one of the best small cities in America while contributing to its well-being and that of our region and our state."
"The purpose of art, as James Baldwin once said, is to lay bare the questions that have been hidden by the answers."
"Art in all media changes the very scale of our lives. It makes us feel smaller at times, like when we look up at the mural or the first day of a challenging class or meeting, but that's OK. We all need to be reminded in the face of art how small we are in the world sometimes"
"Art is freeing. It frees people to explore, to feel, to learn and to create. In this stimulating environment, art calls us to take some risks and invites us to discover who we are and with that knowledge to connect with one another."

A judge ruled Wednesday that a British man can be extradited to South Africa to face trial for the murder of his bride on their honeymoon but said interior minister Theresa May should take the final decision.
District Judge Howard Riddle said there was a public interest in honouring the extradition treaty between Britain and South Africa in the case of 31-year-old Shrien Dewani, accused of murdering his wife Anni in November.
But he added: "I must send this case to the secretary of state for a decision to determine whether he is to be extradited."
Anni Dewani's family welcomed the ruling, saying that although it would not bring the 28-year-old back, it gave them some closure.
"Nothing will bring Anni back, my beautiful, little, innocent sister who was killed. But getting this decision, today at least we will get somewhere," her sister Ami Denborg said.
"I think she will not rest in peace until all this is over, and this is one step in the right direction for us."
South African authorities want Shrien Dewani, from Bristol in southwest England, to be sent back to the country so he can be put on trial for the murder of his Swedish-born wife in Cape Town last November.
The newlyweds were being driven through the dangerous township of Gugulethu when their taxi was hijacked on November 13. Dewani was thrown out of the vehicle while his wife was driven off and shot dead.
He denies any involvement and has fought extradition proceedings, arguing that he is suffering from severe post-traumatic stress disorder and is too unwell to be extradited.
Giving his ruling at Belmarsh Magistrates Court in London, the judge said there would be "undoubted hardship" for Dewani if he were extradited to South Africa.
"However, when all relevant factors are considered, the risk of hardship falls short of oppression. The public interest in extradition and trial outweighs the competing hardship," Riddle said.
He said Dewani, whom he described as "good-looking, youthful and physically well-preserved", would be particularly vulnerable to sexual abuse in a South African jail.
But he said he was satisfied that he would be held in a prison with a good level of facilities and be kept in a single cell.
A spokeswoman for the Home Office, or interior ministry, said the court had found "there were no statutory bars" to Dewani's extradition, but added: "The secretary of state will now decide whether to order his extradition."
Speaking to reporters outside court, Ami Denborg said the last few months had been a "nightmare".
"We are just so happy today. We hope Shrien will help the police as much as possible and that he will return to South Africa," she said.
Anni Dewani's father, Vinod Hindocha, said the judge's decision was "a fair one" but showed no ill will towards his son-in-law, saying: "I wish Shrien a very speedy recovery from his illness."
He said the case was not about the accused, "it's about my beautiful daughter Anni, and not forgetting her". He added: "This is a step to closure."

Mike Perry made quick work of Hyun Gyu Lim, who fought a good fight but could not keep up with Perry's wicked aggression.
Perry finished him with a big right hand and then some ground and pound. It was Perry's UFC debut -- and he made quite the impression. Referee "Big" John McCarthy almost stopped the fight several times before he finally stepped in during the first round.
Perry moves to 7-0 with the victory. With the loss Hyun Gyu Lim drops to 13-5-1.

brewhobo22 (5) Omaha, Nebraska | November 17, 2011
Quality dining with quality beer and wine. The Grey Plume focuses on seasonally-driven contemporary American cuisine that places great emphasis on locally-grown produce and livestock. This focus on local also features local beers. A recent beer dinner featuring Nebraska Brewing Company was a success. The quality of the food paired with exceptional beers was a wonderful culinary experience. From the squash soup, the roasted trout and the homemade marshmallow smores, the sensory experience was amazing. If you like good, local, beers and a wonderful dining experience, this is a "date night" place for beer lovers.

Institutional Investors Can Help India Meet Its Climate Action Pledge
Earlier this month, India announced its pledge for action on climate change beyond 2020, ahead of the United Nations summit on climate change negotiations this December in Paris. Laudable though it is, India's pledge, called an INDC (Intended Nationally Determined Contribution), is also very ambitious and achieving it is going to require mobilising a lot more financing, at more attractive terms. There are several avenues the government could explore for a more cost-effective and realistic pathway to the INDC.

Speak (film)
Fourteen-year old Melinda Sordino starts out her freshman year in high school, and struggles on the first day. She doesn't have any friends to hang out with, and appears awkward and uncomfortable when speaking to others. Throughout the day, she is made fun of by several students, repeatedly called a "squealer". A series of flashbacks reveal that she called the police at a house party during the previous summer, her real reason for calling 9-1-1 was that a senior student at the party, Andy Evans, raped her, but while on the phone, she was unable to talk to the police about what happened, and when the police arrived, she did not report the rape and went home instead. The party was crashed, causing mayhem and everyone to flee from the police.
When her parents see her report card, they prompt her to see Mr. Neck (nickname for a teacher), who tells her to write an essay on any history topic, after refusing to read her paper aloud to her class, she is sent to the principal's office. Melinda is nice to a new student named Heather Billings, who claims to be Melinda's "friend", but Heather soon abandons Melinda when the chance for social advancement arises, the only other student with whom Melinda has a positive experience is her lab partner, Dave Perkins, who has successfully managed to avoid affiliating himself with a clique.
As the year progresses, Melinda begins a painfully slow recapture of her confidence, with some help from Dave and her art teacher, Mr. Freeman, her former best friend, Rachel Bruin, starts dating Andy, and as the only other person who knows about the event, Melinda fears that Rachel will suffer the same fate. Melinda meets Rachel at the library and tells her the truth about what happened at the party by writing it on paper, at first, Rachel refuses to believe her, thinking that Melinda is lying out of jealousy, and calls her "sick", but comes to realize the truth by confronting Andy. After Rachel begins to tell other people what happened, Andy threatens, and begins to attack Melinda, he corners her in the art room and tries to force her to tell everybody at school that the incident is false, and she struggles to get free, eventually overpowering him. They are found by one of her old friends, and a group of girls who help Melinda, and trap Andy. Mr. Neck sees Melinda walking away from the scene and asks what was going on, but Melinda doesn't respond.
On the way back from the hospital after being treated for her injuries, Melinda rolls down the window of the car, breathing in deeply, she finally finds the strength to tell her mother the truth about what happened at the party. Although it becomes clear that Melinda will still need time to fully recover from her ordeals, this is a significant and empowering event in her life, as she finally finds the courage to speak.

Producer and screenwriter Annie Young Frisbie read the novel and successfully made a bid to get the rights to a film version. Production took place in Columbus, Ohio because a production partner, Matthew Myers, was relocating there with his wife.
Film production took only 21 days in August 2003. Flooding during an especially heavy summer rain caused filming to be temporarily postponed and during that time author Laurie Halse Anderson visited the set with her daughter. Anderson herself cameos in the film as the lunch lady who gives Melinda the mashed potatoes.
The school scenes for the movie were shot at Eastmoor Academy on the east side of Columbus.
Although New York Times reviewer Neil Genzlinger praised the work of Stewart and Steve Zahn, he concluded that, overall, the cast was populated with "dismaying caricature[s], so much so that it costs the movie some credibility," and that the film "comes nowhere near capturing the wise, subtle tone of the book."[1]

The Rocky series is, in my opinion, the greatest movie series of all time. Don't agree with me? No big deal, I'm pretty sure there is about a million people that would, if we start talking about the movie ratings. So, why is it that so many people love Rocky? Well, here are my 5 reasons why I think Rocky Balboa is such an inspirational, lovable character.
Reason One: His Looks
In the opening scene of the first Rocky movie, we are given what he looks like in his gear during a fight in the ring. Even with just shorts and shoes on, he looks professional. He has what seems to be a perfect upper body, which fits great in the boxer shorts, and he looks like a killer with his gloves on. Even out of the ring, it seems like he fits perfect in all of his cloths, even though they are beat up and old. I think this gives the audience an immediate first impression as far as looks go, and it seems like this guy can look good in anything. This definitely gives the audience something they are interested in relating to.
Reason two: He is a Nice Guy
Despite living in an underclass neighborhood and being surrounded by crooks and crime, Rocky never gives into it. He is an all around nice guy who may look like a thug, but is the complete opposite. He is open and interested in everyone he talks to, especially his future wife, Adrian. For example, Rocky wears a black shirt, black pants, a black leather jacket, and black shoes with black gloves. As you can tell, he's decked out in black. If someone saw him on the street and didn't know him, they would probably walk the other way. In the first Rocky when he enters the pet shop, he immediately starts to play with the animals and talks to Adrian like he's known her for years, although she is a shy girl and doesn't speak that much. Audiences can appreciate people like this. With Rocky fitting into that kind of character personification, people are able to relate to him as a likable guy.
Reason Three: His Never Quit Attitude
This is what the whole move is about. If you don't give up on your dreams, you can accomplish anything. In every "big" fight Rocky has, he always seems to get is butt whooped in the beginning. Most fighters wouldn't get up after taking the beatings that Rocky did, but Rocky always got up and finished the fight. Win or lose, Rocky finished the fight. This fills us with motivation that we can relate to in our lives. If Rocky Balboa can take a beating from Apollo Creed, come back for more, take another beating, and then win, we can certainly get a three page paper done that's due in two days.
Reason Four: Rocky Makes it Big, but Never Changes
When Rocky wins against Apollo Creed, he becomes champion. He makes more money than he could ever imagine. He is able to buy anything and everything he has ever wanted, and he does. But in doing so, his personality never changes once, only his wardrobe. He is still a fun loving guy who would give the shirt off his back to anyone in need. He even takes part in a big fight that he takes a beating in, just to end up giving the proceeds to charity. This also relates to audiences in the way of showing that even with fame and fortune, it's your choice to change into a snob, or stay the same person you were when you made it.
Reason Five: After Losing Everything, He's Still a Positive Man
When Rocky loses all of his money to a scam, he is forced to sell everything that he owned and move back to his old neighborhood with his family. Through this whole experience, he stays positive. He shows his wife and son love everyday. He even has to pick up a local job to support his family, and even with him and his family hurting for money, he still does not want his wife Adrian to go to work. He would rather break his back everyday than have Adrian work so he can take it easy. This shows that even after losing all that he worked for, he still has a never quit attitude. This is motivating and inspirational in itself.
So, in the end, through the good times and the bad, Rock Balboa is still the same loving, hardworking man with a never quit attitude that he always had. Rocky's character fits perfectly into the hero category. This is because he possesses the looks, character, and attitude that we as movie lovers expect from a hero. The only difference is that Rocky Balboa is a person just like you and me, and this goes to show us that if we live the same way as he did, anything is possible. That's what gives that special edge to Rocky and his story.

Irrespective of your age, losing weight can anytime be a big challenge. But fitness experts believe that losing weight after 30 is especially tough. Why is it so? It takes a lot of time to ensure weight loss among women who have crossed 30 years or who've just reached 30. Moreover it becomes well-nigh impossible to find that little bit of extra time for yourself during a stage when family and career are your life's top priorities. So, does that mean that it is impossible for a woman in her 30s to lose weight? No, you just need perfect planning and organization to make that tough task possible.
If you feel that the scale has got stuck since you hit your thirties, you're not alone as there are many more like you who go through this slight drop in metabolism rate during adulthood. According NIH or National Institutes of Health, premenstrual symptoms may include weight fluctuations and this can get serious in the late 30s. So, here are some tips to maintain a steady scale even in your thirties.
- Stay clear on the things that motivate you: Try to ask yourself on the real reason behind losing weight. You may want a slimmer and sexier waist but beyond that what is it that you want in reality? Is it more sleep or more energy or better mental clarity? Once you're clear about your health goals, write them down so that you can make better day-to-day decisions while seeing the bigger picture.
- Eat at least 5 times in a day: Yes, this means eating 3 meals and 2 snacks in a day. But make sure the snacks are limited to less than 200 calories in a day. You may even make smarter decisions by choosing high protein bites which can leave you well-satiated for at least 2-3 hours like protein shakes, boiled eggs, deli meals and snacks which are low in sugar content. Don't ever skip your breakfast as doing so might not have a good impact on your health.
- Consume lot of protein: Ensure all your snacks and meals have minimum 14 grams of protein and 25g or less than 25 g of carbs. A perfect example of this kind of diet can be a 6-ounce container of non-fat Greek yogurt which has around 17g of protein and 6g of carbohydrates.
- Stop yourself from cleaning up your kid's plates: None of us prefer to throw away food but if you have the habit of constantly finishing whatever is left on the plates of your kids, this adds up to your body. Eating up 3 chicken nuggets on your effort of cleaning up your kid's plates will add up to around 142 extra calories for dinner. So steer clear from this temptation.
- Embrace technology and gadgets: You don't have to look further than your pocket for seeking the right kind of weight motivation. There are smartphones which have an in-built pedometer which measure the total number of steps you take in a day. Aim to walk 10,000 steps in a day. You may even install third-party apps in your phone to track the foods you eat and compute the daily intake of calories.
If you're a busy woman who has been trying hard to shed those extra pounds after reaching 30, you can be tempted to set back all your health needs. Worse enough, you may start following the calves workouts for women and the diet regime mentioned in fashion magazines. Don't make such mistakes as they will have a costly impact in the long run. Try to make the best choices for lifelong well-being and good health.

Shirish B Pradhan
Kathmandu, Feb 17 (PTI) Nepalese Premier Jhala NathKhanal''s CPN-UML today failed to strike a power-sharing dealwith Maoists apparently over the issue of key portfolios ofHome and Foreign demanded by the former rebels, delaying theexpansion of his four-member cabinet indefinitely.
Khanal was expected to expand his new cabinet todaybut the tussle over the power sharing issue continued betweenthe two Left parties.
The CPN-UML has now formed a team comprising Khanal,senior leaders Madhav Kumar Nepal, Ishwor Pokharel and K PSharma Oli to start fresh negotiations with the Maoists andother political parties following a high level meeting,according to the party''s sources.
On the other hand the Maoists decided not to join thegovernment immediately. They are demanding key portfoliosincluding Home and Foreign.
Though, Prime Minister Khanal had earlier assuredMaoist chief Prachanda that he would give them Home and otherkey portfolios, the decision was opposed by his own partycolleagues.
At the moment there are only three ministers besidesthe Prime Minister in Khanal''s cabinet.
Senior UML-leader Bharat Mohan Adhikari has beengiven the portfolio of Finance with Deputy Prime Minister''sposition while other two members of the cabinet Bishnu Poudyaland Ganga Lal Tuladhar are without portfolios even a weekafter their appointment due to the tussle between the twolargest communist parties over power sharing.
Reports had said yesterday that Khanal appeared tohave reached an understanding with the Maoists over sharing ofgovernment ministries, with indications that the former rebelsmay get 11 portfolios in the new cabinet, including Home andForeign Affairs.
The CPN-UML and the CPN-Maoists were sparring overpower sharing for over 11 days when the new prime minister wassworn in, making it impossible for the government to function.
Earlier, the Maoists had threatened that they wouldnot join the government if the seven-point agreement reachedbetween the two top leaders prior to Khanal''s election, is notimplemented.

For those who fly frequently, jet lag is a part of their life. Disrupted sleep, daytime exhaustion, difficulty in concentrating and function, and even digestive problems are common symptoms associated with jet lag.
Though it might not be possible to completely eliminate jet lag, you can always make efforts to reduce it. In this article, we will focus on ways to reduce jet lag.
However, before that, let us understand what a jet lag is and what causes it.
Meaning Of Jet Lag:
Jet lag generally occurs if you are flying for long hours - sometimes across two or more time zones - and in quick time. The more time zones you cross, the more your body struggles to acclimatise and the more you feel sleepy and out of energy.
The longer the duration of your flight, the more intense the symptoms of jet lag become. Jet lag is worse for those who travel from west to east, since it involves loss of time. For old people, overcoming jet lag can be more difficult.
Causes Of Jet Lag:
Jet lag occurs when rapid and excessive travelling throws our biological clock off balance. Crossing of time zones disturbs the circadian rhythm and the internal clock, thereby causing the jet lag. Besides, lower oxygen in blood and lack of movement during the flight can also aggravate the symptoms of jet lag.
10 Ways To Deal With Jet Lag:
1. Start Preparing For The Shifting Time Zones Even Before You Board The Flight:
Yes, you can do this so that your body gets adjusted to the upcoming challenge when it will actually come up. If you are due to travel east, bring your bedtime up front. If it is a trip scheduled much early, go to bed at least half-an-hour early every night. Do the opposite if you are heading west. You can also make changes in your eating schedule as per the country you are visiting.
2. Adjust Your Watch To The Time Of The Place You Are Visiting:
This is more psychological though, yet it helps you in getting into the time table of the country where you are heading to. While trying to get adjusted to the time of the country you are going, don't force yourself to take a nap or stay awake. Just take rest.
3. Arrive At Your Destination Early:
It is always wise to reach the country you are visiting a few days early, so that you can get familiar with things before your actual work begins. Just think of those sporting outfits.
4. Disciplined Eating:
Though there is no diet which is capable of preventing jet lag, it is better to avoid high carbohydrate or fatty foods before sleep, so that you get a complete rest.
5. Drink Adequate Water:
Start drinking before you leave the ground and continue even after you touch it, so that dehydration doesn't affect you. Also, avoid alcohol and caffeine before you plan a sleep. They may disrupt your sleep and also leave you dehydrated.
6. Make Use Of The Natural Light:
Expose yourself to the sunlight, so that your circadian rhythms get regulated. While heading west, get the morning light while in the east, get more light during the close of the day. This will help bring your body clock back to track.
7. Don't Remain Stagnant:
Don't sit idle for the entire flight. Take a light walk periodically and stretch yourself. But don't start doing heavy exercises soon after you reach your destination. Do things gradually.
8. Take A Hot Bath Before Retiring To Bed:
Your tired muscles will get a boost if you take a hot bath after the long travel. The drop in the temperature of the body after the bath will also make you sleepy.
9. Minimise Distracting Factors During Sleep:
Wear an eye mask or put on earplugs or ensure that the curtain is completely covering the windows, so that no light or sound distracts your sleep after you reach your destination, which is so very essential to overcome the jet lag disorder. Also ensure the same during the flight.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 126.96.36.199
Forum Moderators: incrediBILL
However, I am struggling to decide what to do with the meta tags on the page. I don't want to put keywords, description etc. in the metatags if these don't appear in the page itself. On the other hand I don't want to leave the metatags empty. Also, don't think it's wise to cloak the text these days :-)
So, any ideas on how to have meaningful metatags that will describe what the photo is about, even if these words don't appear on the actual page?!
Thanks in advance.
If the requirement is to have minimal text, is there a requirement to have these pages indexed at all by the SE's?
You could experiment with the longdesc attribute of the img tag in addition to alt etc.?
You could still have the descriptive text in a hidden div which is displayed as a tooltip type of thing? This descriptive text could be shown when printed, if required.
I am making a photo-gallery site, and the client has stated that he wants basically, just the photo on a plain black background. Minimal text, just some navigation...
Hmmm, I'd be more apt to go back to the client and explain to them the benefits of surrounding that image with relevant content. I'd let them know that without it, the performance of that page will suffer considerably and the alternatives to displaying that content may or may not be in their best interests. Heck, you only need a few paragraphs of content for each image, that is not that much. But, the more the merrier as they say. And, when it comes to Image Galleries, the text around that image plays a "very important role" in the process.

Can You Measure Rigor?
EXEMPLARY SCHOOLS is a great forum on Linkedin.
The other day, a discussion started on engagement in learning featuring a great infographic.
Kevin, my husband, I wrote a comment as follows:
"The concept of 'engagement' is like 'fun' – everyone claims their program is fun – except they are never asked to prove it. Same with 'engagement' – except not as used as often and certainly never required to be demonstrated but it is critical to learning. A 2007 PISA (OECD) study, showed levels of 'engagement' was the single factor that differentiated the nations with the highest and lowest levels of student achievement….!!
The reason he did this is because I was working in an inner city school putting engaged learning into practice!
So here's the story!
Jazzles ELA excels in engaged learning! Seriously you could stake the proverbial house on Jazzles versus any other program to engage today's diversified classes.
It's one of my hobby horses because it is so important yet no one seems to care!
So we were both somewhat overwhelmed by the followng response from Professor John Sizemore, M.Ed., who teaches in the highly respected Annsley Frazier Thornton School of Education. He's a bit of an expert in this area. His resume notes: "John brings a practitioner's perspective to the students entering the field of education or honing their skills to be principals. He has served in many administrative roles in public education, most recently as assistant superintendent in the 100,000 student Jefferson County Public Schools. John has served as consultant to a variety of urban and rural districts across the country, focusing on restructuring schools. Additionally, John has published articles on teacher advisory programs and principal leadership in restructuring the middle school. John received his B.A. in Social Studies, his MA in Guidance and Counseling, and his Rank I in Supervision and Instruction from Eastern Kentucky University."
If you are a member of LinkedIn, you can reference the article by clicking this link: 27 Ways To Increase Student Engagement In Learning
Here's what Professor Sizemore had to say:
"Maria, I totally concur with Kevin. School leaders and teachers speak of rigor, but it is really just talk. Until you measure rigor, it is all conjecture. With research I have been doing on rigor and engagement, in over 40 schools engagement follows rigor. As goes rigor so goes engagement. Early on l speculated active learning was the trigger to engagement, meaning that if you pedagogically tended to active learning that rigor would result. After more than 20,000 observations, it is clear rigor (thinking level) is at the top of the food chain. In every school's data, when rigor increases so does engagement. You can have high engagement, but it is resting on the good nature of compliant students. This was determined by schools results that had high engagement, but very, very low rigor. In this case, it was a rural school district with students that did what the teacher asked.
Kevin is so right on with his analysis. School and teacher leaders talk of rigor and engagement, but until you measure these areas, you do to know. Thankfully, I have developed a quick assessment tool to get empirical results. The schools with whom we work know the difficulty of trying to change rigor and engagement. The difficulty in improving schools is In knowing how to change systems which then change school results.
We have found school leaders are challenged with knowing what to do too change results. It is not more PD, but the right PD which focuses on how to increase rigor,
By John Sizemore"
At long last we have found someone who knows how to measure rigor – we hope to use his assessment tool either directly or as the basis for a thesis. If you know anyone interested in this, please have them contact me.

Hey! This is my second guide so i hope this works for everyone! I have played a few games with this build and the results were awesome! Anyway...On to the guide! :D
Summoner Spells
OK! So, I choose Flash because it get you in and out of tight spots! Its good foe engaging and great for escapes.
Ignite is good for when you go into long term fights with someone and you need the extra power! If the enemy is faster than you then can quickly ignite them so you can get a kill.
So when playing Malphite you will need to ensure kills on creeps. To do great damage for minions, i'd start with your AOE ability, Ground Slam. You can happily walk into the middle of a minion wave and deal a buttload of damage to loads of them!

Steve Turre, Chembo Corniel, Nestor Torres, Elio Villa Franca, Richardo Rodriguez, and Diego Lopez take the stage as one unit to render an evening of brilliant music! The ensemble has performed to sold out crowds and packed houses all over the country. This "super band" features no leader; the participants share the spotlight and showcase each other.
Trombonist and SNL band veteran, Steve Turre has consistently won both the Readers' and Critics' polls in JazzTimes, Downbeat, and Jazziz for Best Trombone and for Best Miscellaneous Instrumentalist (shells). Turre's sound has drawn upon jazz, Afro-Cuban, and Brazilian sources. His recordings are always innovative and have featured Cassandra Wilson, Randy Brecker, Graciela, Mongo Santamaria, J.J. Johnson, Herbie Hancock, Jon Faddis, and Pharoah Sanders. Turre has a strong command of all musical genres—he always keeps one foot in the past and one in the future.
Néstor Torres has recorded thirteen CDs to date. His fifth and seventh records, Treasure of the Heart and My Latin Soul, were nominated for a Latin GRAMMY, and his production This Side Of Paradise won the Latin GRAMMY Award in the Pop instrumental category in September 2001.
Elio Villafranca is at the forefront of the latest generation of remarkable Cuban pianists, composers, and bandleaders that for several years has been making major creative contributions to the international development of modern jazz. In the 2010 GRAMMY Awards he was nominated in Best Latin Jazz Album of the Year, for his performance, composition, and co-production of Chembo Corniel's album, Things I Wanted To Do. Elio is now an official Steinway Artist.
Conga-player, Chembo Corniel divides his performance time between his two musical loves: Latin jazz and "old-fashioned salsa that swings." He made waves this year and garnered a GRAMMY nomination for Best Latin Jazz Album for Things I Wanted To Do.
Ricardo Rodriguez is a bassist's bassist! He resides in New York City where he has become one of the premier bassist for Latin, Afro Cuban, and world music. He has worked with the legendary Candido, Chubby Checker, Wanda Sykes, multi-Emmy Award-winning Disney Music Producer Martin Erskine, and Primo Casper Gomez of Sootyz Groove, among many others. Diego Lopez began playing drums at age eleven. By age fifteen, he was working professionally. In 2000, he established himself on New York's music scene. He has worked and toured with many artists including Hilton Ruiz, Paquito D' Rivera, Giovanni Hidalgo, and Gato Barbieri.
Combined, these talented musicians have played with an enormous range of greats, including Dizzy Gillespie, Celia Cruz, Tito Puente, Candido, Art Blakey, Grover Washington, Max Roach, Paquito D'Rivera, Paul Simon, and Dionne Warwick, just to name a few. M.F. Production's Latin Jazz All Stars is a musical extravaganza that is sure to bring any audience to their feet!

Wars Bring A Command Economy
April 21, 1999
There is a vast difference between a declared war and the kinds of operations the U.S. and NATO are involved in currently in Kosovo, legal scholars point out.
In a declared war, the President assumes substantial powers denied him otherwise.
- He could temporarily nationalize war industries, and even arrest and detain people without trial -- as well as abrogate contracts and requisition ships.
- In World War I, the government levied price and rent controls, confiscated private property, nationalized the railroads, assumed control of all shipping, regulated the allocation of coal and oil, subsidized wheat production and instituted the draft.
- The Wilson administration launched a massive pro-war propaganda campaign and denied postal privileges to hundreds of newspapers and magazines which didn't cooperate.
- In addition to these powers, President Franklin D. Roosevelt during World War II added wage and price controls, nationwide rent control, rationing of many consumer goods and central planning of production.
Price controls were applied again during the Korean War and President Harry S. Truman seized control of the steel industry in the midst of a strike -- but that action was later ruled unconstitutional.

Ford has partnered with SunPower to come out with a rooftop solar system that could potentially reduce the charging expenses of Focus Electric buyers. This move is a part of the "Drive Green for Life" program.
It consists of a 2.5 kW rooftop solar system that features SunPower E18 Series solar panels that generate an average of 3,000 kilowatt hours of electricity yearly. Compared to conventional panels, these efficient solar panels offer about 50% additional electricity.
They also use a smaller roof area. This system is meant to fill the needs of a customer who drives an average of 1,000 miles (1,600 km) monthly. Mike Tinskey, Ford director of Global Vehicle Electrification and Infrastructure, said that with this program, the ownership cost could be reduced by producing enough energy from the SunPower rooftop solar system to offset the electricity needed to charge the vehicle at night.
Tinskey added that this is a solution that's eco-friendly and is a perfect match to its plug-in products and other green initiatives.
The SunPower solar system has a price tag of about $10,000 after federal tax credits. Ford asserts that other incentives like local and state rebates may lower the price further.
This system is compatible with the Focus Electric as well as with the C-MAX Energi plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, which will arrive in the market next year. Tom Werner, SunPower president and CEO, said that SunPower's innovative partnership with Ford is a "win-win" for customers as it offers a comprehensive sustainability program.
The rooftop solar system is made up of the SunPower E18 Series solar panels that give you an average of 3,000 kilowatt hours of electricity yearly. These are highly efficient solar panels that generate around 50% more electricity than the standard solar panels and leave a reduced footprint on your car's roof. These solar panels can easily power your Ford Focus exclusively if you drive 1,000 miles every month.
The 2.5-kilowatt solar panel system is available for a base price of not more than $10,000, exclusive of sales tax. That can be lesser, assuming you qualify for federal tax credits, state rebates, local rebates and other incentives. Also included in the package is the residential monitoring system where you can track the performance of the solar panels on the Web or through a mobile app on your iPhone. If you need financing options, you can talk to SunPower about the packages they have.
If you own a Ford Focus Electric, you might be contacted by a SunPower dealer who will then visit your home to install the solar panels. The company leads the industry with at least 400 dealers in the United States alone. SunPower has enough dealers to support the Focus Electric launch in 19 markets.
Aside from the Focus Electric, the SunPower rooftop solar system will also work on the C-MAX Energi plug-in hybrid electric vehicle that Ford is launching in 2012.
Two Charging Solutions for the Focus Electric
With its partnership with SunPower, the American carmaker can now give their Focus Electric two charging options to make it easier to own the car. In January, Ford has said that they have partnered with Best Buy to distribute a 240-volt charging station for the home, and this charging station would work for Ford Focus and other electric vehicles.
Ford director of global vehicle electrification and infrastructure Mike Tinskey says that the partnership with Best Buy and SunPower gives Focus owners more solutions to their charging needs, as well as drives down the overall cost of ownership.
The Power of Choice
Electrification is a significant component of the car company's overall product sustainability strategy. Ford is launching five electrified vehicles in North America by the year 2012, and in Europe a year after. The company also launched the Transit Connect Electric commercial van in 2010 and will release the Focus Electric this year. Other models in the pipeline are the C-MAX Hybrid and C-MAX Energi plug-in hybrid. All of these electric vehicles give Ford the chance to cater to an assortment of their customers' driving needs.

SAN ANTONIO -- Still-dropping prices, near-in suburbs and Mexican real estate's image problem were among the real estate topics discussed last week during an annual gathering of the National Association of Real Estate Editors, where industry leaders shared their insights about the state of the real estate industry and real estate market.
Some notable quotes:
"Did we cannibalize future sales? The answer is yes."
--Ted C. Jones, senior vice president and chief economist for Stewart Title Guarantee Co.
Jones described what he termed the long-term failure of the homebuyer tax credit program in 2010. Still, he said, "Thirty to 36 months from now we will look back and slap ourselves for not buying now," he said of current affordability levels. "That glass is half-full and getting fuller."
"Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac haven't wanted to deal with investors (on foreclosed properties), but ...
