Abstracting and indexing services providing coverage of Clinical Practice in Pediatric Psychology®
- PsycINFO
Prior to submission, please carefully read and follow the submission guidelines detailed below. Manuscripts that do not conform to the submission guidelines may be returned without review.
Submit manuscripts electronically (.rtf or .doc) through the Manuscript Submission Portal.
For all inquiries, please contact the Incoming Editor:
Jennifer Verrill Schurman
The Children's Mercy Hospital, Kansas City, MO
Clinical Practice in Pediatric Psychology® is now using a software system to screen submitted content for similarity with other published content.
The system compares each submitted manuscript against a database of 25+ million scholarly publications, as well as content appearing on the open web.
This allows APA to check submissions for potential overlap with material previously published in scholarly journals (e.g., lifted or republished material).
A similarity report will be generated by the system and provided to the Clinical Practice in Pediatric Psychology editorial office for review immediately upon submission. Authors will receive feedback regarding any concerns noted during the similarity check.
Masked Review Policy
The journal has adopted a policy of masked review for all submissions.
The cover letter should include all authors' names and institutional affiliations. The first page of text should omit this information but should include the title of the manuscript and the date it is submitted.
Every effort should be made to see that the manuscript itself contains no clues to the authors' identity. Particular areas to double-check for blinding include self-citation of related studies and naming the institution/site(s) in the method.
Types of Manuscripts
Clinical Practice in Pediatric Psychology publishes articles representing the professional and applied activities of pediatric psychology.
Specific manuscript types that will be considered are:
- Original research (full-length manuscripts), including:
- Brief reports
- Case studies
- Qualitative analysis
- Quality improvement
- Economic evaluation
- Topical reviews
- Systematic reviews/Meta-analyses
- Commentaries (by invitation only)
Also: See the Calls for Papers for Journal Manuscripts page for current special issue/section calls, timelines, and other details.
Brief Reports
Brief reports are acceptable for innovative work that may be premature for publication as a full research report because of small sample size, novel methodologies, etc.
Brief reports should not exceed a total of 12 pages, inclusive of all parts of the manuscript, including the cover page, abstract, text, references, tables and figures.
Case Studies
Case reports are appropriate to describe new clinical phenomena, describe novel treatment approaches, provide preliminary documentation of treatment efficacy, promote evidence-based practice, highlight important areas for further empirical study related to biopsychosocial phenomena, and advocate for the value and relevance of pediatric psychology in the current health care.
Authors are strongly encouraged to plan ahead in order to collect relevant practice-based data, incorporate quasi-experimental or single-participant experimental designs, and/or replicate across multiple participants whenever possible to increase confidence in, and impact of, findings.
Case reports should not exceed a total of 12 pages, inclusive of all parts of the manuscript, including the cover page, abstract, text, references, tables and figures.
Guidelines for case reports can be found in Ernst, M. M., Barhight, L. R., Bierenbaum, M. L., Piazza-Waggoner, C., & Carter, B. D. (2013). Case studies in Clinical Practice in Pediatric Psychology: The "why" and "how to". Clinical Practice in Pediatric Psychology, 1(2), 108.
Qualitative Studies
While emerging from a distinct philosophical perspective, qualitative methods complement quantitative research methods in the general pursuit of knowledge. With a focus on capturing the subjective lived experience of groups of individuals, qualitative research methods have inherent value for improving a broad range of clinical care contexts, such as: building theory relevant to clinical care (e.g., Long, Marsland, Wright & Hinds, 2014); describing medical experiences (e.g., Alderfer et al., 2015) and clinical care needs (e.g., Hodgetts, Zwaigenbaum, & Nicholas, 2015); providing information for the development, evaluation and implementation of clinical screening tools, assessment batteries and interventions (e.g., Beresford, Stuttard, Clarke, & Maddison, 2016; Bingham et al., 2016; de Visser et al., 2015; Kitzman-Ulrich, Wilson, & Lyerly, 2016); adapting and tailoring clinical approaches for new populations or specific subgroups within populations (e.g., Valentine et al., 2016); and, evaluating educational approaches (e.g., Robert & Castell, 2016) and clinical training in psychology (e.g., ten Napel-Schultz, Abma, Bamelis, & Arntz, 2016). For further examples and discussion of the value of qualitative research in pediatric psychology, please see Alderfer, M. A., & Sood, E. (2016). Using qualitative research methods to improve clinical care in pediatric psychology. Clinical Practice in Pediatric Psychology, 4, 358–361.
For helpful guidance on writing up qualitative studies for publication, please see Wu, Y. P., Thompson, D., Aroian, K. J., McQuaid, E. L., & Deatrick, J. A. (2016). Commentary: Writing and evaluating qualitative research reports. Journal of Pediatric Psychology, 41(5), 493–505.
Quality Improvement Work
Clinical Practice in Pediatric Psychology seeks to publish articles that educate readers and lead to positive change in pediatric health care systems and the way providers, especially pediatric psychologists, deliver patient care.
Quality improvement articles should describe and evaluate an intervention that aims to improve a process or system of healthcare. The project does not necessarily have to show improvement, but should describe an attempt to improve a process or system, document any measurable benefits attained (including quality, cost, and/or access), and detail lessons learned.
Authors are expected to generally follow the Standards for Quality Improvement Reporting Excellence (SQUIRE 2.0) Guidelines for reporting their quality improvement projects. The SQUIRE guidelines are described in detail on the SQUIRE website. In general, the manuscript should still follow the usual structure (Introduction, Method, Results, Discussion), but the SQUIRE guidelines suggest specific areas that need to be addressed in each of these sections.
Please note that authors should carefully review their institution's guidelines around quality improvement projects. Authors should state whether they obtained IRB approval and/or formal IRB exemption after review. If not required to undergo review at their institution, the authors must state how the project described in their submission met criteria for not being reviewed by their institution's IRB.
Guidelines for quality improvement reports can be found in Schurman, J. V., Gayes, L. A., Slosky, L., Hunter, M. E., & Pino, F. A. (2015). Publishing quality improvement work in Clinical Practice in Pediatric Psychology: The "why" and "how to." Clinical Practice in Pediatric Psychology, 3, 80.
Economic Evaluation Work
In efforts to improve the "patient experience of care" and "health of populations" while "reducing the per capita cost of health care", the U.S. health care system is increasingly shifting towards alternative payment models which incentivize a collaborative and integrated approach to care within a fixed budget (Institute for Healthcare Improvement, 2016). The continued growth of pediatric psychology in the context of these changes will likely require efforts to demonstrate the role of behavioral and psychosocial interventions in improving health outcomes while minimizing or reducing health care costs (Rozensky & Janicke, 2012).
Consistent with our mission to address issues such as "funding/reimbursement patterns and…cost-effectiveness", Clinical Practice in Pediatric Psychology seeks to provide a platform for disseminating clinical and research efforts related to the economic evaluation of clinical services provided and/or developed by pediatric psychologists.
Manuscripts reporting on economic evaluations should be prepared in accordance with the Consolidated Health Economic Evaluation Reporting Standards (CHEERS; Husereau et al., 2013) which can be located on the International Society for Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research (ISPOR) website.
Topical Reviews
Topical reviews focus on hot topics/emerging new issues in pediatric psychology. These reviews might include a summary of a hot topic, identify areas of controversy, highlight innovative models of care, or provide a relevant summary of current health care changes and how they affect real world practice.
Topical reviews should not exceed a total of 12 pages, inclusive of all parts of the manuscript, including the cover page, abstract, text, references, tables and figures.
Authors are encouraged to utilize focused, representative (versus comprehensive) references. Authors may consider utilizing online links for supplementary materials.
Systematic Reviews/Meta-analyses
Systematic reviews and meta-analyses should focus on clinically relevant topics. Authors are required to attach the PRISMA checklist and flow diagram as supplementary material for each submission. This checklist and flow diagram can be downloaded from the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) website.
Given Clinical Practice in Pediatric Psychology's focus on clinical applications, authors must take an additional step and clearly state the clinical implications resulting from the review or meta-analysis, e.g., how does the paper impact current clinical care occurring in real world settings?
Systematic reviews/meta-analyses should not exceed a total of 30 pages, inclusive of all parts of the manuscript, including the cover page, abstract, text, references, tables and figures. Authors may consider utilizing online links for supplementary materials.
Commentaries are opinion pieces consisting of a main point and supporting discussion. Commentaries may pertain to a specific article and be published concurrently, with the goal of encouraging broader discussion of a specific topic. Commentaries also may address general issues or controversies in the field of pediatric psychology.
Commentaries are by invitation only. Authors who wish to propose a commentary must email a proposal letter and formal academic outline of the manuscript (i.e., introduction, thesis statement, supporting ideas, and conclusion), to the current editor for consideration. Commentaries submitted without prior invitation will be returned to the author without review.
Call for Papers
- Call for Papers: Ethics and Pediatric Psychology
- Call for Papers: Global Reach of Pediatric Psychology
Manuscript Preparation: General Instructions
Prepare manuscripts according to the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (6th edition). Manuscripts may be copyedited for bias-free language (see Chapter 3 of the Publication Manual).
Review APA's Checklist for Manuscript Submission before submitting your article.
Clinical relevance of the research should be specifically and thoughtfully addressed in submitted manuscripts. A special section on clinical implications can be included, but is not required; instead, authors should integrate implications for practice, as appropriate, into all relevant areas of manuscripts to be submitted.
Length of Manuscripts
The page limit for all full-length manuscripts is 25 pages except where otherwise noted. The page limit is inclusive of all parts of the manuscript, including the cover page, abstract, text, references, tables and figures.
Please note that the page limit for Brief Reports, Case Reports, and Topical Reviews is 12 pages.
The page limit for Systematic Reviews/Meta-analyses is 30 pages.
Submissions that exceed the page limits will be returned to the author for shortening prior to the initiation of peer review.
Authors may request consideration of longer papers, in advance of submission, when there is clear justification for additional length (e.g., the paper reports on two or more studies or has an unusual or complex methodology).
If possible, excess material should be placed in an online supplement rather than in the manuscript (see Supplementing Your Article With Online Material).
Manuscript Formatting
All manuscripts should be double-spaced, with margins of at least 1 inch on all sides and a standard font (e.g., Times New Roman) of 12 points.
Please note the references and tables should be double-spaced, in addition to the manuscript itself.
Other formatting instructions, as well as instructions on preparing tables, figures, references, metrics, and abstracts, appear in the Manual. Additional guidance on APA Style is available on the APA Style website.
Below are additional instructions regarding the preparation of display equations, computer code, and tables.
Display Equations
We strongly encourage you to use MathType (third-party software) or Equation Editor 3.0 (built into pre-2007 versions of Word) to construct your equations, rather than the equation support that is built into Word 2007 and Word 2010. Equations composed with the built-in Word 2007/Word 2010 equation support are converted to low-resolution graphics when they enter the production process and must be rekeyed by the typesetter, which may introduce errors.
To construct your equations with MathType or Equation Editor 3.0:
- Go to the Text section of the Insert tab and select Object.
- Select MathType or Equation Editor 3.0 in the drop-down menu.
If you have an equation that has already been produced using Microsoft Word 2007 or 2010 and you have access to the full version of MathType 6.5 or later, you can convert this equation to MathType by clicking on MathType Insert Equation. Copy the equation from Microsoft Word and paste it into the MathType box. Verify that your equation is correct, click File, and then click Update. Your equation has now been inserted into your Word file as a MathType Equation.
Use Equation Editor 3.0 or MathType only for equations or for formulas that cannot be produced as Word text using the Times or Symbol font.
Computer Code
Because altering computer code in any way (e.g., indents, line spacing, line breaks, page breaks) during the typesetting process could alter its meaning, we treat computer code differently from the rest of your article in our production process. To that end, we request separate files for computer code.
In Online Supplemental Material
We request that runnable source code be included as supplemental material to the article. For more information, visit Supplementing Your Article With Online Material.
In the Text of the Article
If you would like to include code in the text of your published manuscript, please submit a separate file with your code exactly as you want it to appear, using Courier New font with a type size of 8 points. We will make an image of each segment of code in your article that exceeds 40 characters in length. (Shorter snippets of code that appear in text will be typeset in Courier New and run in with the rest of the text.) If an appendix contains a mix of code and explanatory text, please submit a file that contains the entire appendix, with the code keyed in 8-point Courier New.
Use Word's Insert Table function when you create tables. Using spaces or tabs in your table will create problems when the table is typeset and may result in errors. Please note that tables should be double-spaced, with margins of at least 1 inch on all sides and a standard font (e.g., Times New Roman) of 12 points.
Submitting Supplemental Materials
APA can place supplemental materials online, available via the published article in the PsycARTICLES® database. Please see Supplementing Your Article With Online Material for more details.
Abstract and Keywords
All manuscripts must include an abstract containing a maximum of 250 words typed on a separate page.
The abstract generally should include the following parts:
- Objective (brief statement of the purpose/rationale of the study)
- Methods (summary of the participants, design, measures, and procedure)
- Results (the primary findings of this work)
- Conclusions (statement of clinical implications of these data)
After the abstract, but on the same page, please supply:
- Up to five keywords or brief phrases that will help to identify your manuscript during relevant searches
- Implications for Impact Statement. As part of article revisions, authors will be asked to submit a short statement of 1–3 sentences written in plain English for the educated public. This text should summarize the article's findings and why they are important pediatric psychology.
For a clinical practice journal like Clinical Practice in Pediatric Psychology, a critical factor is ensuring that information reaches the psychologists, health care professionals, administrators, and legislators who could use it.
This new article feature packages research findings for easier distribution. It also allows authors greater control over how their work will be interpreted by and impact key audiences globally and locally who are interested in the physical health and psychological well-being of children — practitioners, policy makers, news media, and members of the public.
Please refer to Guidance for Translational Abstracts, Public Significance Statements, and Social Media Messages to help you write this text.

Today, U.S. district Judge Denny Chin rejected Fox News' lawsuit against Al Franken, for mocking their tagline "Fair and Balanced" on the cover of his book. Some of Chin's quotes on his ruling include:
"There are hard cases and there are easy cases. This is an easy case. This case is wholly without merit, both factually and legally."
"It is ironic that a media company, which should be protecting the First Amendment, is seeking to undermine it,"
The Judge also noted that the 'Fair and Balanced' trademark itself was "unlikely a valid trademark. The mark is a weak one as trademarks go."
The publisher moved up the sale date of the book to yesterday, so as to coincide with the publicity that this case has generated. Last I checked, this book was #1 on Amazon.com.

Hangar fire at Atsugi injures 3
By STARS AND STRIPES Published: November 16, 2009
TOKYO — A fire at a Naval Air Facility Atsugi hangar Saturday left two Japanese workers hospitalized and a third with minor burns, base and Japanese fire officials said.
The fire was reported at about 11:55 a.m. at Hangar 183, base spokesman Tim McGough said.
Three Obayashi Corporation workers were burned and transported to Kitazato Hospital in Sagamihara City, he said, adding that the cause of the fire is still under investigation.
Two people suffered burns that could require three weeks of hospitalization, an Ayase Fire Department official said. The third person suffered minor burns and was released.
Kitazato Hospital officials declined comment on the extent of their injuries.
Part of the hangar wall and an office attached to the hangar sustained damage, the Ayase official said.
The fire was largely suppressed by about 12:45 p.m., though fire control measures continued for hours afterward, officials said.
The Yamato, Ayase and base fire departments all responded to the fire, McGough said.
A Naval Air Facility Atsugi, Japan, firefighter prepares to cut a hole in the roof of Hangar 183 on Saturday after a fire there was suppressed. The fire was reported about 11:45 a.m., and fire departments from the air facility and Yamato and Ayase cities responded. Officials said three people were injured.

The New York private equity firm that struck a deal to buy Caritas Christi Health Care could build the chain of six Catholic community hospitals into a competitive lower-cost provider of medical services in Massachusetts, analysts told the Boston Globe. Cerberus Capital Management plans to invest $830 million to acquire Caritas Christi and turn the charity into a for-profit venture. The hospitals could emerge as an attractive lower-cost alternative to Boston's big teaching hospitals as healthcare reform moves forward soon in Massachusetts and later across the country, the Globe reports.

what takes up the most space on a iPhone ?
- Asked by Brady H from Arlington
2 Answers from the Community
This is a very popular question! The answer, however varies. Depending on how you use your phone, and what content you have on it, your space will be filled differently. Typically, music/photos/videos are responsible for the majority of storage use. You can manage you content in Settings on the phone, or with iTunes on your Mac or PC.

text: From 1686 to 1695 Giambattista Vico resided at Castello De Vargas in the service of the Marquis Domenico Rocca, who employed Vico to tutor his children. It was at this place, said to enjoy 'a most beautiful situation and the most perfect air', that the philosopher developed his thinking and wrote his fundamental text 'New Science'. The Fondazione Giambattista Vico restored the castle, bringing it back to life, and established on its site the Museo Vichiano and the Biblioteca del Parco Nazionale del Cilento e Vallo del Diano, which holds more than 20 thousand volumes. As visitors wander through the rooms of the palace, the presence of Vico and his thought will echo with every step they take. The small town of Vatolla lies halfway between Paestum and Elea-Velia, thus creating a metaphorical link between the origins of western civilisation and of modern thought.

Creative Confections
Upper Marlboro Travel Blog› entry 1 of 6 › view all entries
Two little girls--mid-elementary school age, I guess--hurry ahead of me, their grandmother leading them to the brick house. Despite the cold breeze, I pause on the gravel driveway and wait for them to open the wooden door and disappear inside the brick home. I smile at the photo opportunity. I had come to visit Darnell's Chance to see the confections created for their annual Gingerbread Contest, and coming up the steep drive, I had been surprised to see a life-size gingerbread house awaiting. After a few shots, I head inside where I am greeted by a friendly proprietor who explains how visitors get to vote on our favorite gingerbread house in two divisions: child and adult.
I head into the child's room first to look at the six entries.
I wander through the doorway into the adult entries room. The smell of gingerbread has subtly been working its way into my nose, and I enjoy the pleasant scent as I begin to look at about a dozen baked masterpieces.
I put my vote in a white basket and walk across the hall to the two rooms done in period style, the period being that of the early 1700's. The parlor shows four adult mannequins enjoying some simple entertainment such as a game of cards. I prefer to look at the elaborate gowns on the women. While I wouldn't want to have to wear such heavy clothing everyday, I think it would be fun to own at least one dress in that beautiful design. The main bedchamber behind the parlor is dimmer and not as interesting, so I return to the hallway and head up the stairs to the second floor.
Upstairs I spend a few minutes reading the placards of two small exhibits.
Back down in the main hall, I pause to snap a picture of the Christmas tree and then head down a flight of steep steps (with a low ceiling although that's not a problem for me) to the basement. Here I glance in the wine cellar and winter kitchen and briefly browse the gift shop.
My visit complete I head back outside and on towards home.

Part 2.4 - A Wet Conclusion
Tarlac Travel Blog› entry 8 of 8 › view all entries
July 7th, 2008 – by: JeAr
We checked out of the hotel at 1PM and started the long drive back home (or better yet, Foyan started to drive again hehehe). We needed to get back to Manila before 9PM because I had to go to work. While still in Pangasinan, it started to rain hard again. We couldn't even see the mountains in some parts because of the very thick rainclouds hanging above us. Other than that, the drive went on smoothly.
By the time we reached the province of Tarlac, the sun was out again. We stopped by Chowking (yet again) to get some refreshments, then went back on the road. We got a bit lost in Pampanga though, trying to find the road that leads to the expressway. We eventually found it, but it was already 6PM when we did. Cool thing Foyan drives fast, and the traffic wasn't that bad yet, and we reached Manila in no time. They dropped me off at some point and from there, I took the train to my city.
That's it, my almost-always-wet weekends in lovely Pangasinan. I now therefore conclude that it's one of my most favorite provinces, and if anyone invites me to go back there, I'd do so in a heartbeat, typhoon or no! :D

NEWARK, N.J. — U.S. Senate candidate Cory Booker's campaign is downplaying the disclosure of Twitter exchanges he had with a stripper.
Booker, the Democratic mayor of Newark and a prolific Twitter user, is running in a special Senate election that is less than three weeks away.
Booker, 44, exchanged direct messages earlier this year with Lynsie Lee, who works at a vegan strip club called Casa Diablo in Portland, Ore.
Lee provided a screenshot of the exchange Wednesday to the website BuzzFeed.
In the messages, Lee told Booker the West Coast loved him. Booker, who is single, said the East Coast loves her, "and by the East Coast, I mean me." Lee responded she was blushing. Booker replied "it's only fair."
Booker, an early Twitter adopter, has 1.4 million followers and uses the social media site constantly.
He received two degrees from Stanford, where he also played varsity football, then studied at Oxford on a Rhodes Scholarship and received a law degree from Yale.
His campaign issued a statement noting that the two-term mayor has long used Twitter to direct city resources and communicate with supporters across the country.
"In an era when nearly every moment in most public officials' lives is scripted and controlled, the mayor remains accessible to regular people," the statement said. "The most shocking thing about this story is the news that there's a vegan strip club in Portland."
Lee did not return an email seeking comment.
She told Portland television station KPTV that she had never met Booker. She and the mayor both appeared in a documentary about Twitter.
She told the TV station her message to Booker was: "I just hope this doesn't hurt your political career, because I'm rooting for you. And, you can take me out to dinner any time."
Associated Press writer Angela Delli Santi in Trenton contributed to this report.

2,100 Republic jobs saved
More than 2,100 jobs have been saved by Sports Direct International's purchase of 116 stores from fashion retailer Republic.
More than 2,100 jobs have been saved by Sports Direct International's purchase of 116 stores from fashion retailer Republic.
The administrator for fashion retailer Republic has said welcomed the move to secure 2,100 jobs, after Sports Direct International bought the chain.
The undisclosed deal comes after administrators Ernst & Young closed five Republic shops in Scotland on Tuesday, with the loss of 105 jobs, and axed another 150 jobs at its head office in Leeds. Administrator Hunter Kelly said:
In what has been a very challenging time and volatile climate for retailers, it is particularly pleasing to have completed the successful sale of Republic, saving 2,100 jobs across the UK high street and at its Leeds-based headquarters.
The brand Republic is well-recognised and well-respected by customers for offering quality, high-fashion goods and it is a testament to its strength that Sports Direct has made this investment to secure its future and high street presence.

I'm sort of all over the place. I LOVE period dramas, but only if I can take the time to watch it without a million interruptions (something that rarely happens around here).
I adore Downton Abbey, Call the Midwife, and Bomb Girls.
I'm also a huge fan of Doctor Who and Once Upon A Time.
If I have to watch something that I know will get interrupted by the girls or Dh, I tend to watch reality shows, because then if I miss something, who cares?

Unique handcrafted works, process demonstrations, music and artisan foods all come swirling together to make up the 38th annual Sugarloaf Crafts Festival this weekend in Timonium, just north of Baltimore.
The 250 jury-selected artists will be exhibiting their works in ceramics, sculpture, glass, jewelry, fashion, furniture, home décor, leather, fine art and photography. In addition to art for sale, the public will be invited to watch the artists at work, perhaps one of the more unique aspects of the festival.
"Seeing [the demonstration and] the educational aspect brings a whole different level of appreciation," said DeAnn Verdier, president of Sugarloaf Craft Festivals. "Otherwise it's hard for people to imagine the hand you just shook made the piece you're going to buy. You can watch them take a lump of clay and create a beautiful form before your eyes."
Artisan food exhibitors will be bringing candies, chocolates, soups, breads, jams, dips, syrups and olive oils for visitors to sample and purchase as well.
John Akkus, originally from Istanbul and now living in Virginia, has been participating at Sugarloaf since 1996. He is the artist behind A Touch of Silver and will be selling everything from jewelry to Judaica, as well as demonstrating his unique artistry called metal spinning. Metal spinning combines spinning with a Turkish method of engraving, primarily using copper.
"The metal spinning exists, but not very many people do this anymore," explained Akkus. "It started in the 1800s but then was lost, and high tech took over. [The technique] is very different and exclusive, and it's interesting to watch."
Smadar Livne, originally from Israel, now works from her studio in Owings Mills. Present at Sugarloaf for about 20 years, Livne is best known for her large acrylic paintings on canvas, utilizing mixed media and featuring bold contemporary colors.
"Every time, I come [to Sugarloaf] with a new series," said Livne. "People will be expecting to see my bold colors; this time I'm going with pastel — and gold and silver."
Livne explained she is still working some of the same themes, but the change in palette evokes a very different feeling. "It's very fresh and light," she said. "And the gold and silver … because of the metallic, it becomes a totally different painting."
Olga Goldin, her husband and two young sons came to Baltimore from Belarus. This year will be her 14th at the festival. She creates from clay, applying multiple glazes and firings; her pieces are all hand built. She makes Judaica, such as menorahs and Kiddush cups, but is perhaps best known for her figurines.
"Customers collect my pieces," said Goldin. "They buy figures with instruments — they're little characters with a 1920s and 1930s shtetl feeling. When I was living in Belarus, in Minsk, I would see the pieces in my grandparents' house. Those memories have influenced my work."
Livne hopes that the public will not only shop, but also take the time to talk to artists and experience the event.
"They don't know what's behind the scenes," said Livne. "The artists all work very hard. They create from nothing — it's about the feeling. Try to get the creative inspirational feeling from this event. … Take the time to talk to the artists and get to know what's behind what they're making."
The Sugarloaf Crafts Festival will be held Friday, April 25 and Saturday, April 26 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday, April 27 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Maryland State Fairgrounds, 2200 York Road in Timonium.
Admission is $8 when purchased online and $10 at the door, and a ticket is good for all three days of the show. Children under 12 are free. Free parking is available on site.
For more information, including exhibitor lists, directions and admission discounts, visit sugarloafcrafts.com or call 800-210-9900.

EEOC to Reduce Number of Directors as It Revamps Field Organization
The chairman of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission announced yesterday that she plans to overhaul the agency's field structure and will cut the number of district directors by a third.
But no employees will lose their jobs and no offices will be closed, the agency said.
Inside the EEOC, there have been discussions of reorganization plans for three years, but the agency's field officers got the official word yesterday at a meeting called by Cari M. Dominguez , the EEOC chairman.
Dominguez, in her announcement, said she has called a commission meeting for Monday to debate and vote on the reorganization plan. The commission has four members -- three Republicans and one Democrat -- and one vacancy.
The EEOC estimated that the reorganization will save several million dollars over time. Nick Inzeo , the agency's director of field programs, said the agency will reap some of the savings by abolishing some positions and filling others deemed critical to the agency's primary work.
He noted that the agency, going into the reorganization, has eight vacant Senior Executive Service positions and an empty position at the top General Schedule pay grade.
The proposal calls for redeploying staff, including some managers, to enforcement, litigation, mediation and customer service positions. The EEOC's announcement noted that the workload has been declining in some cities and that it no longer justifies large offices in those locations.
The plan will reduce from 25 to 16 the number of district directors reporting to headquarters and will put the remaining directors and regional attorneys in charge of larger geographic zones and workloads.
Nine district offices will be recast as field offices, Inzeo said. Under the proposal, the EEOC will operate with a four-tiered structure: district offices, field offices, area offices and local offices. The reorganization will permit the EEOC to open two new area offices, in Las Vegas and Mobile, Ala.
The plan also reduces the number of regional attorneys from 21 to 15. Some will continue as agency lawyers, and some may become field office directors, Inzeo said.
If the reorganization is adopted, EEOC will have one frontline supervisor for every 10 employees, the agency said. Currently, the agency has about one supervisor for every seven or eight employees. The EEOC has about 2,400 employees.
Dominguez cited changes in demographics, business practices and technology, along with budgetary considerations, as reasons for the reorganization.

Good reception site in Brown CountyReviewed on 7/24/2014 Kara E
There aren't very many reception sites in Brown County, IN with large capacities. Explore Brown County advertises that they can hold 150-200 people, but you can have far more than that by adding additional seating (indoors and outdoors). XBC was reasonably priced... Read More (comparatively speaking), although they are somewhat difficult to deal with. Watch the paperwork - oftentimes their website and paperwork state different policies.
Affordable but poor PRReviewed on 6/26/2014 Kara E
If you're a bride who knows what you want and how to make it happen, Valley Branch is a very affordable option. Be forewarned, though: their website and information packets often disagree with each other so be ready to ask lots of questions.
Rustic beautyReviewed on 9/26/2012 Christa M
We've spent many weekends camping at Valley Branch Retreat, but hosting our wedding and reception there let us see the place in a whole new light. If you're looking for a rustic and natural location, this is it! There are many places to get married outside, and the Harvest... Read More Hall barn was amazing for our reception of ~130 people. Plenty of space, rustic charm, and still the amenities of actual bathrooms, air conditioning, and a kitchen for your caterer!

Megan Rain
Petite teen Megan Rain is becoming a legend in porn for her ability to take the biggest dicks in the business. Her secret is her can-do attitude: "If you think you can, you can." Megan's confidence extends to every part of her porn career. She got her start in 2014 after a friend suggested she would be great in porn. Megan knew she didn't have the big boobs and booty of a typical porn starlet, but this spinner believed her tiny body was more than up to the challenge, so she applied. This raven-haired stunner immediately started getting booked for hot teen jobs, but Megan would never be satisfied confined to only one type of role. Megan was soon pushing her limits with harder, edgier scenes, stretching her tight pussy and ass around massive cocks and loving every minute! Once again, Megan proved she could do anything she put her mind to, and she's been rewarded with multiple AVN nominations, including Female Performer of the Year in 2017. Megan is definitely the Little Pornstar that Could, and she's just getting started!

Millard F. Smith
MILLARD F. SMITH, manufacturer of, and wholesale dealer in, coal miners' supplies, is probably best known by reason of his invention of the M. F. Smith Double and Single Post Drilling Machine, which is widely used in the mining states of the West. He is a practical man, and has met with success in his business ventures.
Mr. Smith was born June 13, 1851, in Logan county, Ohio, and is a son of John Milton and Jemiah (Sudith) Smith. John Milton Smith was a native of Virginia, - of Scotch-Irish descent. He was a millwright by trade, and at an early age went with his widowed mother to Logan county, Ohio, where he assisted in clearing a farm. He moved from Ohio to Missouri and resided in different cities in the latter state, and in Iowa. He was also in the mill business in Texas, in 1860, and molded the first cook stove made in that state. He was a molder by trade, having formerly operated a foundry in Ohio. In the vicinity of Jefferson, Texas, in 1860, his mother was killed by an explosion. In March, 1861, he moved to Jefferson county, Kansas. Previous to this he had been employed at Independence, Missouri, by Overfelt & Dodd, Southern sympthizers, and being a Northerner he was compelled to seek safety in flight. He had owned and operated mills at Eddyville and Ottumwa, Iowa, and was an able mechanic in every line, but paid particular attention to the millwright work. He died at Cedarvale, Kansas, in June, 1886, at the age of seventy-seven years. He and his wife were parents of three children: Dulcina (Sproul), of Cedarvale, Kansas; Millard F.; and Jesse F., a farmer living near Cedarvale.
Millard F. Smith attended the common schools until he was thirteen years of age, after which he was obliged to clothe and support himself. He worked in a woolen mill at Grasshopper Falls, Kansas, now called Valley Falls. He was left in Wilson county, in 1870, and was employed in the grist-mills owned by Beam & Sons. He purchased a farm in Wilson county, which he rented, and in 1870, located at Parsons, and was employed by G. W. Chess, who built the Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railway shops. His first work there was in guarding around the machine shops, and he helped Foreman Burns to carry the first ladle of iron in the shops. He had begun to work as fireman when a lad of but fifteen years, and by 1870 was a good engineer. In the early "seventies," he ran the engine, in the old Parsons flour mill, owned by Knox, Chess & Matthewson, and then went to Lake City, Colorado, where he operated a shingle-mill and sawmill by contract, until 1877, for Gibert, Hall & Company. In the fall of 1877, he returned to Parsons, and ran a flouring-mill engine for one year. He returned to his farm in August, 1878, and remained there the following winter. He then engaged as engineer for the National Mill & Elevator Company, of Parsons, for eighteen months, and in 1882 bought a patent-right for Nebraska and Dakota, of a rotary pump, which did not prove a success. In Plattsmouth, Nebraska, he worked in a foundry and was also fireman on the Burlington & Missouri River Railroad, from Plattsmouth to Omaha and Hastings. He also put the machinery into a grist-mill in that city. In March, 1884, he returned to Parsons and engaged with the Parsons Coal Company, - putting in machinery and running their engines at the Daisy Shaft, Weir City, at which work he remained for three years. It was while there he invented the Smith coal mining drill and brass checks, of which he has since manufactured many thousands, selling them in Indiana, Indian Territory, Arkansas and Colorado. In 1889, the Smith Manufacturing Company was organized in Parsons, with Mr. Smith as president and general manager, a position he held until 1895, when he withdrew, taking with him the iron and brass departments. The company still turns out the woodwork, handles, etc. The plant was destroyed by fire in 1894. Mr. Smith now owns the building which he occupies, and manufactures Smith drills and coal miners' supplies. He is the only manufacturer of brass checks with raised figures. He owns all the machinery and employs five men. He also handles coal, and is the only dealer in Parsons who sells Piedmont blacksmithing coal, in car lots. He has two natural gas engines, one of 1 1/2 and the other of 4 horse power, which run the machinery. He is the inventor of various novelties, among which is the Eclipse Embroidery Frame and Embroidery Hoop Holder, adjustable to chair, table or bed rail, and used to hold embroidery and fancy work.
Mr. Smith was united in marriage, at Parsons, Kansas, in May, 1885, with Matie A. Lamb, who was born in Schenectady, New York, in 1868, and they have three children: Cora W., Vesta, and George M. Politically, Mr. Smith is a Prohibitionist and a Republican. He is a member of Lodge No. 117, A. F. & A. M., of Parsons; and Lodge No. 1, A. 0. U. W., of Parsons. Mrs. Smith is a member of the Christian church. Mr. Smith purchased the A. G. Harris house, at No. 2115 Forrest avenue, where he now resides.

The BookBuild tool has been pre-configured to comply with the Airbus CDIM to streamline the production of the output for customers and reduces the complexity of the publication process.
The application accepts S1000D Data modules that have been created using the A350 Business Rules and automatically creates a compliant Component Maintenance Publication as a PDF file. The output is configured by an A350 compliant Publication Module to determine the structure of the document and the Data Modules to be used. All relevant Tables of Contents and other 'management' pages are automatically generated and included in the publication.
To complement the A350 BookBuild output, the Mekon Eclipse S1000D for FrameMaker application has been extended to work with the Airbus A350 CDIM. The application can now reference a Business Rules Exchange file (BREX) supplied with the package. Using this A350 BREX file the application constrains the author's choice of elements in certain contexts. This prevents an author from inserting elements where they are not allowed by Airbus.
The publication module used for specifying the publication content can also be created with the Eclipse application.
Content Management
As with the S1000D solution, the R4i Common Source Database (CSDB) from can be used as a secure repository for A350 Data Modules. The Mekon A350 tools will work seamlessly with the R4i CSDB and additional tools and output stylesheets are being developed for the R4i CSDB to support the A350 requirements. Mekon will soon be able to offer additional tools and options to support the creation, management and publishing of A350 content.

Municipal and county road agencies are responsible
for maintaining over 220,000 miles of roads and 12,000 span-type bridges while building more to meet the transportation needs of the state.
All of this amounts to a tremendous need for sound technical advice from experienced road, bridge/culvert, and traffic safety professionals.
In 1982 the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) launched an initiative with the goal of improving local roadways, known as the Local Technical Assistance Program (LTAP). The nationwide program is modeled after the successful agriculture extension service and is supported through funds provided by FHWA and the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). The Texas Local Technical Assistance Program (TxLTAP) is managed by the University of Texas Arlington's Public Works Institute.
TxLTAP is focused on preserving and enhancing the local road system by delivering quality training and technical assistance to local city/county road agencies in Texas. The training provided through this program will increase the performance of the transportation workers in Texas by ensuring they conduct their duties in a safe, efficient, environmentally sound, and cost effective manner. This program will also allow city/county agencies to maximize benefits from their often limited fiscal and staffing resources.
Through training geared to local government circumstances, customized technical assistance, advice provided at events, and a library of resources, TxLTAP provides relevant and impactful information focused on road and bridge/culvert maintenance, the use of traffic control devices, and other techniques to promote traffic safety.
The TxLTAP Advisory Board consists of engaged individuals who represent Texas' diversity in terms of geographical location, population size, and government organization. The board members have a variety of skills including insight into particular challenges and trends , current conditions, and technology research.
TxLTAP's staff of professionals offer over 500 years of firsthand experience and education in transportation and traffic engineering, road and bridge maintenance, heavy equipment operations, safety and workforce development. Kimberly Johnson 817.272.9617 firstname.lastname@example.com
Ashley Mathews, Director, Public Works Institute, serves as the TxLTAP Director. She has nearly a decade of experience working closely with Texas' county commissioners courts in her previous position as education coordinator at Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service's V. G. Young Institute for County Government. In this role, she was responsible for planning, coordinating, producing, and evaluating continuing education programming for all county elected officials, but with an emphasis on county judges and commissioners. Prior to this role, Ashley managed a statewide adult education and hands-on skills training program for Texas Parks & Wildlife Department. She holds a master degree in resource development which a focus on program management (financial management, marketing, program analysis and customer service). Given her experience working with local governments, Ashley has unique insight into the workings of local government, their resource challenges, employee strengths/weaknesses, and gaps in their knowledge base.

Last summer I went to Amsterdam with my three best friends. (You can read all about it here and here.)
Last year I decided to do a photo book of every trip or vacation I`ll do. I always take a lot of pictures and it is too sad to let them get dusty on my computer. Let`s be honest, how many times do you look at your photos that are on your computer? Not often I guess… I can tell you, when there lies a book on your bedside table (it can also stand in a shelf), you`ll probably look more often through your pictures! And the best thing about it: all the memories are right there, you just have to open the book!
I`m not the scrapbooking type of person, I prefer digital photo books. I used Blurb to design this book. They have several options how to create a book and I always work with their program called BookWright. They have finished layouts, but you can also create your own ones. It really is so easy! Just choose your layouts, insert your pictures and upload the finished book. That`s it!
For my vacation or trip books, I always take the 25×20 cm size and I choose the hardcover, because it is more resistant.
I`m always so pleased with the result! The quality of the books is excellent!
My dream is, that some day I`ll have a shelf that holds all my vacation books! (Like this.) But first I have to travel! And my next trip is only six weeks away! Stay tuned!
Love, Caroline ♥
Please note: This is not a sponsored post. I used the services of Blurb several times and am very pleased with the quality of their products.

War Against Criminals Imperils Constitutional Safeguards
October 6, 2000
In an effort to pursue crime -- especially drug-related crime -- lawmakers are putting the liberties and interests of honest citizens in jeopardy, critics warn. Nowhere is this threat so evident as in cases involving asset forfeiture proceedings, they say.
Here are several horror stories they cite:
- When an Alabama doctor who distrusted banks finally decided to deposit $316,911 in cash he had hoarded in his home over his lifetime, the FBI and the U.S. attorney seized all of his assets and indicted the banker on charges of money laundering -- simply on the assumption that such a sum was evidence of wrong-doing.
- A California multimillionaire lost his life as a result of a deputy sheriff's plot to confiscate his 200-acre Malibu estate on fabricated drug charges.
- These are not isolated incidents, since 80 percent of the victims of asset forfeiture are innocents who are never charged with a crime.
Law enforcement agents seldom differentiate between inadvertent violations of the law and the activities of criminals, experts charge. Offenses such as money laundering are technical in nature and do not require intent to commit a crime.
Laws are even now being proposed to further strengthen law enforcement powers at the expense of honest citizens' rights and freedoms. Critics point to a bill by Rep. Spencer Bachus (R-Ala.), that would permit the Customs Service to open anyone's mail without a warrant as a tool to combat money laundering.
Such legislative efforts strike critics as evidence some politicians believe the ends of law enforcement justify unconstitutional means.

The Danish wind turbine producer Vestas Wind Systems and the Japanese conglomerate Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) have agreed to form a joint venture aimed at gaining a strong position in the market for offshore wind turbines.
Vestas, the world's largest wind turbine maker, announced in August last year that it was in dialogue with MHI about the offshore segment. Vestas will transfer the development of its large V164 8 MW offshore wind turbine, the order book for its V112 offshore turbine, existing offshore service contracts and about 300 employees to the joint venture, while MHI will inject 100 million euros in cash and a further 200 million euros based on certain milestone achievements,
"Leveraging on the respective strengths of each organisation, the joint venture will be well-positioned to win an expanding share of the offshore wind turbine market and become a global leader in this attractive and high-growth market," Vestas said.
Regional Project Manager at Invest in Denmark, Peder Bo Sørensen sees the new joint venture as a clear benefit to the Danish wind industry:
"Denmark has a leading offshore wind industry, but bringing in a large international player like Mitsubishi Heavy Industries definitely helps to maintain and develop this position."
The head office of the joint venture will be located in Aarhus, Denmark, from where the company will handle all aspects from design, further development, procurement and manufacturing related to the V164-8.0 MW turbine as well as all marketing, sales and after-sales service related to offshore wind. Vestas will continue to manufacture and supply the V112 turbines which the JV will offer for offshore projects.
The main markets for offshore wind turbines are the North Sea coastal countries, particularly the UK and Germany. In these and all other markets, today, measures are being taken to support the introduction of wind power generation equipment to supersede outdated coal-fired and nuclear plants, and solid growth in this area is expected to continue going forward. The establishment of the JV between MHI and Vestas is the two partners' joint response to this market's robust growth potential.
About VestasVestas was founded in Denmark in1898 has delivered wind energy in 73 countries. Vestas has 62 per cent more megawatts installed than the closest competitor and more than 50,000 wind turbines equivalent to 57,000 MW of cumulative installed capacity worldwide.
About MHIMHI is one of the world's leading manufacturers of machinery within power systems, nuclear energy and commercial aviation and aerospace. The company has approx 68,000 employees and consolidated sales of JPY 2,818bn in the fiscal year of 2012. Since delivering Japan's very first wind turbine for commercial use in 1982, MHI has supplied a total of more than 4,200 units worldwide, having a combined output of almost 4,400 MW. Presently, MHI is undertaking development of a 7 MW wind turbine (known as the "Sea Angel") adopting the world's first digitally controlled hydraulic drivetrain.

Dealing with stress more effectively has become my main objective lately. Life is too short and I certainly want to make the best out of it. Unfortunately, difficult situations are all around us; that's why living a happy and healthy life may take some strategizing.
Here are a few of the approaches that may help us all reduce stress:
SEE ALSO: 21 Sarcastic Zen Sayings You Need In Your Life
Jump Start the Day with a Balanced Breakfast
When you skip the most important meal of the day, you are setting yourself up for moodiness and less coping capacity. Missing out on breakfast lowers your blood sugar levels and make you feel cranky.
Solution: Start your morning with some cold cereal or puffed grain served with berries and low fat or soy milk, or have a whole grain toast or tortilla topped with low fat cheese or nut butter.
Eat Smart All Day
Eating the right mix of carbohydrates and protein can help your body and mood stay steady all day, which is done by increasing serotonin levels, the "happy hormone". Foods high in protein tend to contain large amounts of tryptophan, an amino acid precursor of serotonin. However, without carbs, the body have a hard time producing serotonin.
Solution: Select a low-sugar version of oatmeal with milk in the morning. For lunch, have a salad with lean meat and chickpeas or beans. For dinner, enjoy some quinoa with fish.
Gamble on Magnesium for Comfort
Severe stress can make you anxious, irritable and unhappy; symptoms caused by the production of some powerful hormones, cortisol, and adrenaline. Magnesium appears to regulate tension by suppressing the release of these hormones.
Solution: Have seafood, beans, nuts and leafy green veggies to protect your brain from these symptoms.
Boost Your Vitamin C Intake
A German study found that vitamin C may help reduce both the physical and psychological effects of stress on people. Vitamin C appears to also reduce cortisol levels. When the body feels tension cortisol is produced and triggers the fight or flight response.
Solution: Have orange juice, strawberries or guava for breakfast or snack; add more green leafy vegetables, tomatoes and asparagus to your meals.
Don't Overdo Caffeine
Moderate amounts of coffee, tea or other caffeine-containing beverages may put you in the right state of mind. Caffeine may keep you mentally alert and overcome fatigue, but excessive use may cause you to feel anxious instead of calm
Solution: Aim for no more than to 2 to 4 cups of coffee..
Disconnect From Technology
When you feel overwhelmed by your online community, it may cause you to feel fatigue, headaches or back pain. Pay attention to your wise body and take a break.
Solution: Step away and take a walk, do some meditation, yoga or tai-chi or get in touch with your family and friends.

How are the seats of Ranult Scala ?
By: Ronit on 18 december 2014
5 Answers:
|The seats of Renault Scala are amazing. The seats come with just the right amount of cushioning and thigh support. The thigh support is a very crucial thing, if you go for a long ride. The better the thigh support the better you can tolerate long drive. The good thigh supported seats are a necessary features for touring cars like Renault Scala. Many manufactures cut out seat's thigh support in order to get better cabin space, but this is not true in case of Renault Scala. Renault somehow managed to get best in class cabin space and that though without compensating the seat comfort. The seats are also curved inward so that the passenger gets fits into it ensuring that no one slips during tight corners and everything remains stable.
Sonal Gupta 2014-12-18
The seats of Renault Scala are amazingly good and are well cushioned. The curved design of the seats help the passengers and the riders to remain intact at their places even at those tight curves and curvy drives. The flat seat design on the other hand, which is being offered in its competitors, is instable and can be a major problem in the long run. Overall I'll give seats of this car a 10 star out of 10.
Khushi 2015-01-09
Renault Scala seats and upholstery is of leather with driver height adjustable seats. Although there are certain things which are not available in the car such as driver armrest, active headrest, lumbar support, folding rear seat and audio control in armrest but its manageable. Interior has its own advantage like cup holder placed at rear armrest, adjustable head rest front and rear, front seat pockets and leather wrapped steering wheel.
Yashwant 2015-01-16
This is not just a car it is a car. They have rightly said for this car and this suny. It is very spacious and the seats of this car are very good and comfortable enough for you to fall asleep on a long drive to your favorite place in India.
rohit dabas 2015-01-21
The seats of this costly car are not just enough up to the mark. I love this car because of the performance and driver comfort but the seats could have been much better as they always feel cheap and unworthy of the title of such a big price tag after all.
