DAVIS, Calif. - UC Santa Barbara and UC Davis were picked to finish 1-2 in the Big West's preseason poll and the two battled like it on Thursday night at The Pavilion.
However UCSB's Achilles Heel, the turnover, crept up on the team again as the Gauchos committed 27 turnovers in a 54-49 defeat to UC Davis.
Despite the turnovers UCSB (4-10 overall, 1-1 in the Big West) was in the game until the final half-minute, using a hot first half of shooting and a huge rebounding advantage to stay tight with the Aggies (9-6, 2-1).
The Gauchos outrebounded Davis 46-19 and nearly had as many offensive rebounds (16) as Davis had total rebounds. Jordan Franey and Mekia Valentine led UCSB with nine rebounds a piece as Franey just missed on her second double-double of the season as the senior scored 11 points.
Meagan Williams, playing near her hometown of Sacramento, led the Gauchos with 12 points while filling up the stat sheet. She had seven rebounds, three assists, three blocks and four steals.
Freshman Sweets Underwood tied her career best with seven boards while chipping in four points. Valentine and Emilie Johnson each had eight points.
UCSB took a 39-38 lead with 10:46 remaining in the game on a Williams bucket but missed its next eight shots, allowing the Aggies to take a five-point lead. The Gauchos closed the game to two points on Ariana Gnekow's layup with 2:48 left, but that was as close as they'd get.
Santa Barbara made it a three-point game, 52-49 with 22 seconds remaining on another Gnekow basket, but a pair of free throws by the Aggies closed out the game.
UCSB will finish its road trip on Saturday vs. Pacific at 4 p.m. The game can be heard live on AM 990 or streaming online by clicking clicking here..
UCSB Athletics has a new weekly radio show called Talk'n Gauchos which airs every Tuesday from 6-7 p.m. on AM 1490 KIST.

Civil Rights Commission Celebrates 50 years
The Fair Employment Practice Act of 1961 was expanded in 1963 into Indiana civil rights laws. Consequently, the Fair Employment Practices Commission was changed to the ICRC, with powers of enforcement over the areas of employment, education and public accommodations.
Recent legislation has continued to modify and expand the role of the ICRC. In 1991, the legislature amended the Indiana civil rights laws to comply with the enforcement provisions of the federal Fair Housing Act. These amendments expanded protections for Hoosiers by extending coverage to families with children, providing fines, civil penalties, injunctive relief and (for victims of housing discrimination) the right to elect agency or judicial enforcement of claims.
Enacting the Indiana Fair Housing Act and promulgating rules and regulations were part of a process that allowed the agency to be certified as a substantially equivalent fair housing enforcement agency with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The Indiana Fair Housing law prohibits activities like blockbusting and discriminatory advertising which have the effect of making it harder for a person to live in a neighborhood or individual housing unit of their choice. This legislation enabled the ICRC to share jurisdiction with HUD and receive funding. In 1996 funds from HUD totaled $324,120.00.
Similarly, the Hoosiers with Disabilities Act passed the legislature in 1992. The act amended Indiana civil rights law to comport with the Title I of the federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Like its federal counterpart, this law ensures that individuals are not denied equal opportunity in employment because of disability and further requires employers to reasonable accommodate individuals with disabilities.
Although the term "reasonable accommodation" encompasses a myriad of possible modifications an employer might be required to make, it is tempered by the limitation that an employer is not required to make modifications that would impose "undue hardship" on its business. The Commission has the authority to enforce this law and promulgate rules for implementation of the law.
Along with new laws that have changed the ICRC's jurisdiction, new legislation has been enacted which affects its operation. In 1993, the agency proposed and the legislature passed House Enrolled Act 1509. The act changed several aspects of adjudicating a case with the Commission. The designation of "hearing officer'' was changed to "Administrative Law Judge." The change is meant to bestow an enhanced perception of the dignity and significance of the office as well as Commission proceedings. This classification is similar to other administrative agencies that have quasi judicial powers. Also, the act enlarged the statute of limitations for filing a complaint of discrimination from 90 to 180 days.
In 1994, legislative changes included enactment of two laws which reformed the agency's jurisdiction over a case. The law was changed to allow any civil rights case to be heard in a trial court with the agreement of both parties and to have judicial review of Commission decisions by the Indiana Court of Appeals. Previously, the right to choose whether to have an administrative hearing with the Commission or opt for a more formal trial was available only in housing discrimination cases. The legislature extended this right to all areas covered by Indiana civil rights laws. Prior to the new law, judicial review of ICRC decision was conducted first by local trial courts and then appealed to the Indiana Court of Appeals. The agency noted that trial courts are not staffed to review decisions in an efficient manner. By directing the reviews straight to the Indiana Court of Appeals, a three and a half year delay in achieving appellate court review was eliminated.
Legislative endeavors in the last two years have included, modifying Commission time frames to accommodate mediation occurring during an investigation to allow parties to attempt conciliation before choosing a forum for adjudication of their complaint. These legislative measures have streamlined the ICRC's complaint, investigative and adjudicatory processes.

MANKATO, Minn. (AP) - Minnesota State University, Mankato, has reassigned a football coach who was cleared of child pornography charges last month.
The university said late Friday that head football coach Todd Hoffner will serve as the school's assistant athletic director for facilities development.
In his new role, Hoffner will be responsible for helping develop the school's master plan for athletics and recreation facilities. The new assignment takes effect immediately.
Hoffner was charged with possession of child porn in August after school officials found videos of his naked children on his work-issued cellphone.
A judge dismissed the criminal charges last month after concluding that the short videos of his children acting silly after a bath were not child porn and showed nothing illegal.

Have you "learned today" yet? Because Jay-Z has spoken… or well, written… with his latest song, "Open Letter," produced by Swizz Beatz and Timbaland. In it, Jigga drops lines like "Obama said, Chill, you gon' get me impeached" and "the world's under new management." He also calls people "dweebs." As always, the tweets are either over-dramatic or unimpressed with the song. Click through for a few mixed feedback.

Completely Untrue Facts: The Big Ten
In honor of the college football season, we're going conference by conference extrapolating useless facts and lies about each team. Since we live and die by the Wisconsin Badgers (we die a lot...), today we start with the Big Ten.
Illinois: In 1976, while coaching at Orville High School in Orville, Ohio, Ron Zook made extra money by working as a male stripper in nearby Wooster.
Indiana: Despite overwhelming support from the student body, the President of the University of Indiana steadfastly refuses to change the schools motto to "Texas Tech Likes Sloppy Seconds".
Iowa: Kirk Ferentz once wrote a book entitled "101 Sexual Uses for Corn, and Other Football Strategy".
Michigan: The student health administration at the University of Michigan reported a 55% increase in condom purchases during Tom Brady's time at the college.
Michigan State: Michingan State fans were the only people in the world who were suprised when Jeff Smoker admitted his addiction to drugs.
Minnesota: During his time as head coach at U of M, Glen Mason regularly "borrowed" the Goldy Gopher costume for furry parties at his house.
Northwestern: Northwestern alumni are the only people in America who aren't joking when they reference "the good old days when we had Gary Barnett"
Ohio State: Jim Tressel mistakingly thinks his sweater vests make him look sassy, when in reality they just look gay.
Penn State: Joe Pa once had a threesome with two cheerleaders in the Penn State press box, thus the name "Happy Valley".
Purdue: This spring Joe Tiller unsuccessfully petitioned for a 12th year of eligibility for Drew Brees.
Wisconsin: The Iowa Hawkeyes logo on Bret Bielema's calf covers up the original "Milwaukee Mustangs 4-Ever" tattoo he got during his time with the Arena League franchise.

Honey-Glazed Baby Back Ribs
Honey-Glazed Baby Back Ribs Recipe | Easy Asian Recipes
Prep time:
Cook time:
Total Time:
1 rack baby back rib, halved lengthwise
Salt to taste
2 tablespoons honey for broiling
Marinade Sauce:
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
2 teaspoons unsulfured molasses
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped peeled fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (or 3 garlic cloves, minced)
1 tablespoon sambal oelek/Chinese chile-garlic sauce
Lightly season the baby back rib with salt, to taste.
Brush the ribs evenly with the Marinade Sauce on both sides and marinate for at least 8 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a large baking sheet with heavy aluminum foil, lay the ribs on top, and tightly cover with foil. Roast for 2 hours.
Remove the ribs from the oven and uncover. Brush the ribs with the honey.
Transfer the ribs to the broiler and broil at 500°F (260°C) for 5-6 minutes or until the ribs are glazed and browned to your liking.
Slice them into individual ribs and serve hot.
One of the favorite food of Mr. Rasa Malaysia is baby back ribs. He loves all sorts of ribs, but especially partial to Chinese-style ribs and American BBQ ribs. He doesn't have much of an opinion whenever we dine out as I am always the ones who decide where we eat at, but whenever he is in the mood to take charge, his answer is pretty predictable: ribs. He has taken me and his friends to unknown restaurants at obscure places, for some hole-in-the-wall ribs. If there is one thing he is obsessed with when it comes to food, I think that would be it, and very lucky for us, our good friend Slap Yo' Daddy is one of the top BBQ pit masters in the US, and he would always bring us some of his award-winning and extremely delicious baby back ribs.
These honey-glazeed baby back ribs was prepared for him. I am not much a ribs person, other than using them to flavor my Chinese soups or stews, but I was pleasantly surprised with the sticky, gooey, and addictive great taste of this recipe. This honey-glazed baby back ribs recipe is adapted from the Food & Wine magazine. I love the addition of sambal oelek or chili-garlic sauce for a tint of spicy note.
Either way, Mr. Rasa Malaysia happily devoured the dish which was specially cooked for him. If you love yourself some Chinese/Asian-style good ribs, you can certainly try this recipe out!

Any gardener knows that plant roots are critical to growth, flowering, and fruiting. Strong roots enable plants to withstand pest attacks, adverse weather, and poor gardening practices. For the hardcore gardener comes a new book that not only explores the diversity of plant root systems but also shows how you can be a better gardener by understanding how roots function.
In his book, Roots Demystified: Change Your Gardening Habits to Help Roots Thrive (Metamorphic Press, 2007, $25), author Robert Kourik provides down-to-earth advice on root-efficient planting and cultivation methods. Kourik looks at major plant groups, such as vegetables, lawns, ornamental shrubs and trees, and fruit trees, and discusses how understanding each plant group's root system and how it functions can help you provide the right environment for the plants to thrive. For example, he highlights those trees that grow well in lawns and tells which ones need mulch and which ones grow better without it.
Roots Demystified also features 25 hand-drawn illustrations of various plant roots by a famous 20th-century horticulturist. For more information on Roots Demystified, go to: Robert Kourik's Web site.

Younger women also can develop osteoporosis, usually due to a poor diet, low calcium intake, and excessive vigorous exercise. Dancers, gymnasts, and long-distance runners have this problem most commonly, and it is exaggerated with anorexia and weight loss. These young women often have associated low body fat, low estrogen levels, and irregular or nonexistent menstrual periods. A more nourishing diet, reduced activity, and calcium-vitamin-mineral supplements can help to correct this problem
and prevent future ones.
For menopausal hot flashes, irritability, and/or night sweats, supplemental calcium and vitamins D and E will often help. Dong quai herb has also benefited many women with those symptoms. Two capsules taken two or three times daily is the standard usage in this regard. Ginseng has also been helpful, especially when there is associated fatigue. Other herbs that work are some of the female tonics, such as the cohosh herbs, unicorn root, and licorice root. The FE-G and female formulas described in the section on Premenstrual Syndrome in Chapter 17 may also be helpful in menopause, as they seem to support estrogen production by stimulating the female organs. Sarsaparilla root has been used as a female herb, and valerian root can be used for insomnia and irritability. Calcium-magnesium is helpful for muscle and back pains or cramps. Kelp tablets have been used to support thyroid function, which helps women through the changes of menopause. Iron is still needed in premenopausal amounts until there is no more bleeding; then the iron requirements decrease from 18-10 mg. per day.
The nutrient program presented here includes dietary plus supplemental needs. Nutrients such as chloride, phosphorus, fluoride, sodium, and potassium are usually not supplemented, but obtained from diet. The ranges allow for individual comfort in using the higher amounts, which may be best for this program. (See the following program for the Elderly for further information. The programs on Anti-Aging and Anti-Stress in Chapter 16 may also provide assistance to the menopausal woman.)

The mission of the Professional Development and Research Institute on Blindness is to prepare highly qualified professionals to educate and rehabilitate individuals who are blind or visually impaired, and to conduct research that broadens and deepens our understanding about blindness and the best methods for increasing independence for individuals who are blind or visually impaired.
Founded in 1996 with the help of an experimental/innovative grant from the U.S. Department of Education, the Institute on Blindness was established to create the first non-discriminatory program in equipping people interested in teaching cane travel and braille to blind students using Structured Discovery Cane Travel (SDCT)™ methods and principles. Using this methodology, we have proven over the last two decades, that it is the non-visual techniques that keep blind people safe while learning to travel…not the instructor's visual acuity. All PDRIB programs are based fundamentally on the premise that structured discovery methods, positive attitudes about blindness, and high expectations for performance are the keys for helping children and adults who are blind or visually impaired to become independent, productive members of society.Bonanza Boots Industrial Goodyear Men Goodyear s 6" Premium Construction Leather Industrial Moc Work Boot Slip-Resistant Welt Construction Light Brown 308160a
The Institute on Blindness provides outstanding professional preparation for individuals entering the field of working with blind children or adults, and our graduates have been eagerly sought after by employers from all across the United States in both public and private sectors.
We are committed to providing leadership in creating programs and conducting research that empowers blind individuals not only to live independently, but also to participate fully in society. We take pride in maintaining high academic standards. The Master's degree programs at Louisiana Tech University are non-discriminatory and designed to exceed the standards and competencies of traditional university training programs.
The Institute on Blindness has worked in partnership with the Louisiana Center for the Blind, one of the leading adult orientation and adjustment training centers in the United States, to develop rigorous and high quality graduate degree programsProfessional Development
The Professional Development and Research Institute on Blindness offers three Graduate degree programs, each of which is designed to provide high quality education and support for students.
The Masters of Arts in Counseling and Guidance / Orientation and Mobility program remains the only university-based degree program that prepares individuals to teach cane travel skills to children and adults who are blind or visually impaired using Structured Discovery Cane Travel (SDCT)™ methods and principles. Core to this program, all students undergo a minimum of 400 hours of immersion in blindness, where all students (blind and sighted) wear blindfolds eight hours per day learning nonvisual skills for accomplishing travel skills safely and efficiently.
The Master of Arts in Counseling and Guidance / Rehabilitation Teaching for the Blind program was founded in 2014 and is designed to teach a broad range of skills, including cane travel, braille, activities of daily living, and access technology to children and adults. Similarly, students matriculating through the RTB program begin their training through immersion in foundational nonvisual skills based on Structured Discovery methods and principles.
The Master of Arts in Teaching / Teaching Blind Students program prepares teachers of children who are blind or visually impaired the skills necessary to educate children with visual impairments in the regular and specialized classroom settings. Foundational to this program, all students must demonstrate mastery in reading and writing the Unified English Braille code before student teaching. Teachers gain a deep understanding about the impact of attitudes and expectations on education, and are given broad exposure to Access Technology, and the Expanded Core Curriculum.
Regardless of which degree track is right for you, all individuals seeking to become students at Louisiana Tech should be familiar with information related to applying to the University.Research
The Professional Development and Research Institute on Blindness at Louisiana Tech University also provides information to the broader community about blindness, dispelling misconceptions, and promoting training and education about the potential of individuals who are blind or visually impaired.
The Critical Concerns in Blindness book series provides in-depth discourse into specific strategies for training young children and adults in ways that capitalize on their strengths and promotes the capacity, rather than deficiencies of individuals living with vision loss. From mobility concepts for teaching very young children the importance of movement, helping parents to get the best educational experience for their children, to the methods and principals that underlie high quality rehabilitation training for adults and seniors.
Our Research Reports serve as a centralized location highlighting some of the contemporary research being done in the area of training and education for individuals who are blind or visually impaired, and provides links to download these reports directly. The latest employment and rehabilitation statistics on the lived experiences of adults who are blind or visually impaired, Research on reliability and validity of reading media assessments necessary for educating children with a visual impairment, and research on the role of attitudes, expectations, and mentoring on the lives of children and adults who are blind or visually impaired are a few of the reports you will find here.
In an effort to impact the field more broadly, we work to provide continuing education opportunities to professionals nationwide in the areas of Structured Discovery, teaching, and braille literacy. We also work closely with the National Blindness Professional Certification Board to ensure high-quality certification standards for professionals who wish to teach Orientation and Mobility, Rehabilitation Teaching, or Braille literacy.Propet Women s TravelActiv Ss Sandal Purple/Black , Zorgen Mens Western Boots Genuine Leather Pointed Toe Nubuck Leather Blue Sansha Women s Rhine Character Shoe , Comfortview Women s Plus Size Bodhi Tall Calf Boots Olive , CRC Women s Stylish Peep Toe Mesh Satin Ballroom Morden Salsa Latin Tango Party Wedding Professional Dance Sandals Sfnld Women s Retro Buckle Medium Chunky Heel Double Strap Side Zip Knee High Boots Brown GetMine Women Latin Ballroom Dance Shoes Wedding Tango Salsa Shoes Dance Heels LA07 , Lane Boots Women s Maggie Western Boot Tan , Dingo Womens Artesia Tan , Baffin Women s Storm Canadian Made Industrial Rubber Boot Forest Green , Forever Young Women Full Rubber Rain Boots, Animal/Black - ROTAN Womens Professional White Casual Work Garden Clogs Mule Shoes For Nurses White/1748 Itasca Men s Ketchikan CM RT Ski Boot Brown/Camo , B.O.C.

What's the point? This has three benefits: First, it saves the reader the trouble of typing in a Web address into their phone -- an annoying process for the majority of wireless subscribers that don't have phones with QWERTY keypads. Second, it can take the reader to a very specific page, based on an individual ad -- like a coupon or a map to the advertiser's store. And third, it ties into Google's analytics tools, so advertisers can get a very specific sense of which ads work and which don't, when people are viewing them, where they're standing (GPS), etc.
These barcodes are big in Japan -- we were there last December, and saw them everywhere. A Google exec presenting at a NY Advertising Club meetup the search company hosted Monday night said the barcode software's penetration is about 10% right now in the U.S. We're told that's a liberal estimate -- a mobile marketing exec we talked to at the meeting said he'd be surprised if the software is set up on even 1% of phones in the U.S.
Either way, there are big hurdles before the barcodes catch on here. The biggest: Getting the four biggest mobile carriers, which sell the vast majority of cellphones in the U.S., on board.
First, Google, carriers like AT&T and Verizon Wireless, and phone manufacturers like Motorola and Samsung need to figure out how to split up the revenue pie. Second, they have to get the software on enough phones to be relevant. And third, they have to convince advertisers that people know what the barcodes are for, so they don't get confused.
Some of Google's (GOOG) problems will be solved as it rolls out Android, its mobile operating system, later this year -- Google can put pretty much whatever software it wants on those phones. But there are 240+ million wireless subscribers right now in the U.S., and none of them runs Android. Google has its work cut out.

Exeter man sentenced to prison for his child pornography 'hobby'By JAMES A. KIMBLE
Union Leader Correspondent
February 14. 2013 8:09PM
BRENTWOOD - An Exeter man found with 246,000 images of children engaged in sexual acts was sentenced to 15 to 30 years in state prison on Thursday, and remained defiant to suggestions that there was anything wrong with what he called his "hobby" of collecting child pornography.
Thomas Rogers, 46, pleaded guilty to 22 counts of possession of child sexual abuse images in Rockingham County Superior Court for his collection, which included 1,300 video files.
Thursday's sentence was the longest prison term handed down by a state court in New Hampshire for possessing, but not creating, child pornography.
The images and videos were largely kept on seven external hard drives, but Rogers also had printed photographs and a photo album left in plain sight in his bedroom, prosecutors said.
Property managers found some of the photographs on Dec. 22, 2011 while inspecting Rogers' apartment when he wasn't home.
Exeter police executed several search warrants at the apartment and for Roger's home computer, which exposed the larger collection he kept archived.
Rogers acknowledged to Exeter police that he collected the material.
He said in court on Friday that he believed he was deemed guilty on the day he arrived at county jail.
"I don't understand how anybody could be clear-headed about this," Rogers said. "My life is gone. Everything that I hold dear - the one thing I held dear, my daughter, is gone. I have nothing left, your honor. Send me up to Concord and let me get it over with."
Rogers insisted he never harmed his teenage daughter who was living with him at the residence. He was not charged with abusing her.
But Assistant County Attorney Jerome Blanchard said Exeter police uncovered disturbing material that Rogers had kept that contradicted his claims of being a good father.
It included video footage of him hiding a camera in his daughter's bedroom, and recording his daughter and friends when they were over.
"He put it up on multiple occasions," Blanchard said. "You can see him on video. It didn't rise to level of child pornography; however, it shows you who you are dealing with."
Rogers also had photographs of girls as young as 11 years old at a local water slide dressed in bikinis, Blanchard said. Exeter police recognized two of the girls from their town, he said.
He wrote a letter to the Attorney General's Office on Dec. 23 claiming his activity was not illegal. "I am innocent of doing anything wrong in my apartment," he wrote in the letter, saying he had been a good father ever since his daughter was born. "I will not deny I possess a lot of porn. It's a hobby I keep to myself."
Judge Marguerite Wageling told Rogers that he "epitomized the very people" that society needs to be protected from. "You are the poster child of a wolf in sheep's clothing," she said. "For you to stand here and tell me you didn't harm your daughter is fantasy on your part," Wageling said, adding: "You deserve every day you receive from this sentence."

Anyone who's worked in a senior position on a major political campaign can attest that things get pretty crazy, especially near the end. Responses to the unexpected must be both fast and right.
Three Catholic University law school students were put to the test on May 1st during a campaign finance "Urgent Response Scenario" simulation, realistically scripted for them by Professor A.G. Harmon and adjunct faculty member Troy McCurry, who teaches the Campaign Finance Seminar.
Antonio Moore (3E), Erim Canligil (3E), and Michael Flynn (2D) took on the role of attorneys for a political organization that is pressed for an answer to a novel campaign finance law question, submitted via a frantic phone call. The "attorneys" were obliged to research election law and provide an answer within the hour—even as the scope of the legal question kept morphing.
"Unbeknownst to them, the party's executive director called back from time to time with new requests—both changing the problem and shortening the time frame," revealed Professor Harmon.
Two judges who've worked in the trenches of national campaigns for the Democratic and Republican parties judged and critiqued the law students on strategy, substance, and communication of the answer.
"The simulation recreated a scenario faced by political lawyers operating in the intensity of election season," explained Harmon. "A political party wants to use a portion of its coordinated funds to employ voter ID data compiled in a past election in service of a current candidate's campaign."
Is the tactic legal? Can it be justified? The students set to work quickly on finding the right answers, aware that they were being measured on how well they researched and analyzed the relevant issues and on how well they formulated an appropriate course of action for their hypothetical client.
Serving as judges were Eric Wang, legal counsel to Americans for Prosperity, where he advises the ideological non-profit organization on federal and state campaign finance, lobbying, and tax laws. Wang writes frequently in Roll Call, The Hill, and The Washington Times on political law issues; and Sam Brown, associate at Allen & Overy, where his practice focuses on political law issues. Brown served as counsel to Commissioner Ellen Weintraub of the FEC where he assisted in formulating the commission's response to the Citizens United decision.

Just when you think that blemishes are a thing of the past, they rear their ugly black or white heads once again. Up to 70 percent of adult women experience bouts of acne -- and they're especially likely when you're expecting a baby.
Regardless of your age or reproductive status, pimples develop when the sebaceous glands, attached to hair follicles under the skin, produce excessive amounts of the oily lubricant sebum, explains Elizabeth Carr, M.D., clinical assistant professor of dermatology at SUNY Health Science Center in Brooklyn, NY. The sebum accumulates and mixes with shed skin cells as well as acne-causing bacteria, and a plug develops in the follicle. This can take the form of a whitehead (a pore clogged underneath the skin), a blackhead (a pore clogged on the surface of the skin), or a cyst (a painful pocket of pus). And as everyone knows, when this happens, the results aren't pretty.
Hormonally Yours
What triggers these oil slicks? Hormonal fluctuations are often to blame—and nothing drives hormones wild like motherhood. "During pregnancy, the skin may react to the body's increased level of progesterone, which can induce acne," says Carr. (Some women, on the other hand, find that the corresponding rise in estrogen curbs sebum production and reduces acne.) After delivery, when progesterone and estrogen levels drop, acne frequently clears up. At the same time, however, the body's higher proportion of androgens (acne-causing sex hormones) can mean new or continued outbreaks for some moms.
In addition to hormonal changes, external factors can bring on adult acne as well. Some medications—including corticosteroids, androgenic steroids, phenytoin, and progestin-only oral contraceptives—can spur oil production. And while many women use abrasive scrubs, astringents, masks, and exfoliators to help keep zits at bay, these products can backfire, triggering an overabundance of sebum, aggravating acne, and irritating the skin; oil-based facial and hair products may also clog pores. Another common culprit is stress, which can contribute to a surge of acne-inducing androgens. Finally, although many women find that downing a chocolate bar or an order of greasy fries invariably provokes an outbreak, dermatologists disagree about whether such foods are actually to blame.
Zap Those Zits
Fortunately, a slew of recently approved acne treatments are coming onto the market. Unfortunately, many of these are off-limits to pregnant and nursing women. That's why it's vital to discuss acne treatments with your obstetrician as well as a dermatologist who knows that you're pregnant or breastfeeding, even if you plan to use an over-the-counter (OTC) preparation. A look at your treatment options:
The clean routine
The first line of attack is unclogging the pores—and that doesn't mean popping. "Picking, squeezing, or scrubbing can irritate inflamed skin and make acne worse," Carr warns. "Plus, it can lead to scarring." Instead, wash your face twice a day with a mild cleanser, such as Neutrogena Cleansing Lotion or Cetaphil.
Topical solutions
If acne is stubborn, the safest treatments for expectant or nursing moms are OTC gels or lotions that contain salicylic acid, glycolic acid, or benzoyl peroxide -- which help dry up surface oil and increase the shedding of skin cells. If these don't work, a dermatologist may prescribe a topical antibiotic, such as T-Stat or Emgel, that contains erythromycin to curb inflammation or a new medication (Azelex) with azelaic acid, a skin-bleaching agent that speeds cell shedding and kills bacteria.
Other drugs called retinoids—tretinoin (Retin-A) and adapalene (Differin)—can be applied to the skin to stop oil plugs from forming. But dermatologists don't prescribe them to pregnant women, since their oral formulations can cause birth defects and it's unknown whether topical retinoids pose a similar risk. For the same reasons, doctors don't prescribe gels or lotions that contain the antibiotics clindamycin, sulfur-resorcinol, and metronidazole.
Oral medications
Like retinoids, oral antibiotics—such as tetracycline, minocycline, doxycycline, and amoxicillin—can cause birth defects and contaminate breast milk. The only oral antibiotic that's considered relatively safe is erythromycin, but many doctors are still reluctant to recommend it to expectant or new mothers. "If the acne is causing emotional distress, I might prescribe it in pregnancy—but only after the first trimester, when the early stages of fetal development are completed," says Carr.
And although taking birth control pills containing estrogen often helps to clear up acne, that's not an option for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
An Ounce Of Prevention
Since the treatments for expectant and new mothers are limited, the key to fighting pimples is preventing them from forming in the first place. A healthy lifestyle goes a long way toward keeping your skin blemish-free. So reduce stress, drink lots of water, eat well, exercise regularly, and get as much sleep as possible, advises Elizabeth Hughes, M.D., chief resident at the Stanford Dermatology Clinic in Palo Alto, CA.
When it comes to skin care, "look for the words 'noncomedogenic' or 'nonacnegenic,' meaning non-acne-causing, on the labels of facial products and cosmetics," says Hughes. Also, keep your face clean, choose an oil-free moisturizer, and, while you're at it, an oil-free concealer or foundation to mask occasional flare-ups. Most important, don't despair. Your skin may not rival a baby's for beauty right now, but with proper care and a little time, it can come close.

GOTTHARD have unveiled the first single from their forthcoming album Bang!
Here's what the Swiss rockers have to say about the song and its accompanying promo clip:
"Only a little more than four weeks and it will finally be here – the big Bang! we're all waiting for. Great that there's the strong first single to tide us over, because Feel What I Feel definitely whets the appetite for more.
"Even more so watching the video, which stars former Miss Switzerland, Anita Buri, in the super-hot leading role. Because let's face it – what could possibly be better than: awesome track + beautiful woman = perfect.
"During the shoot of Feel What I Feel it got quite warm in the pfalzkeller [wine cellar] of St. Gallen monastery – and that wasn't only caused by the spotlights. Apart from the elaborately filmed scenes of the band's performance, the amazing Anita Buri raised the temperature in a tasteful, sexy alien costume, seducing our friend Nic [Maeder, vocals] good and proper. All very professional-like, of course."
Find out how the story ends in the clip below.

Inaugural medical class honored
The first of three one-year classes

GREENVILLE, N.C. (Nov. 8, 2013) — In 1972, when he and his classmates made up the first group of East Carolina University medical students, Dr. Douglas Privette said they knew they had to excel.
"We worked very hard," he said. "We basically studied just about continuously, except maybe Friday and Saturday night. We had regular tests. You were forced to keep up."
Privette was one of 20 in the program, after which students transferred to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. It was the first step toward ECU having its own medical school.
"We knew we were sort of under a microscope, under the gun to make sure we weren't behind when we got to UNC," he said.

The ECU Medical & Health Sciences Foundation honored Dr. Douglas Privette with this year's Distinguished Alumni Award, and Dr. Amy Howell of the Class of 2006 is the Katherine Bray-Strickland Young Alumni Award recipient for this year.
The program helped fulfill the vision of Dr. Leo Jenkins, president of what was then East Carolina College, to build a medical school in Greenville. The first class is being honored this weekend by the ECU Medical and Health Sciences Foundation.
In 1965, a year after Jenkins began his campaign for a medical school, the North Carolina General Assembly authorized East Carolina to establish a school and provided planning funds for its development.
The first ECU medical faculty members started work in 1970, under the leadership of Dr. Wallace Wooles, a pharmacologist and the first dean. The following year, the General Assembly appropriated operating funds to allow enrollment in the one-year program.
In 1972, those first 20 students arrived, followed by two more classes of 20 each, all North Carolinians, in 1973 and 1974.
"Oh, what an exciting time to be starting a medical school," said Dr. Lynis Dohm, a physiologist and one of the original ECU medical faculty members who still works as a diabetes researcher at the school. "The first-year class was just excited to be here. They were all good students and worked hard."
Dr. Hubert Burden, a professor of anatomy and another original faculty member, described the one-year program as a compromise, a chance for ECU to show it could operate a successful medical school.
"Considering the politics of those days, I think it was important for our people to go to Chapel Hill and show they were just as good as any recruited at Chapel Hill and better in many cases," said Burden, who still teaches part-time. "Everybody was under the microscope, and I think everyone passed the test."
Classes were held on main campus in Room S109 of what is now the Howell Science Complex, a room specially refurbished for the medical students. Burden taught anatomy in a double-wide trailer near Christenbury Gym. He doubts passersby knew that inside students were cutting and examining cadavers.
"For the most part I don't think so, and it's probably better that they didn't," he said with a laugh.
The thinking in Greenville, Raleigh and at the UNC General Administration offices in Chapel Hill was that ECU would grow to a two-year program, with expansion to a full four-year program later.
But in late 1974, plans changed. The next year, upon recommendation of the UNC Board of Governors, the General Assembly appropriated $43 million for initial construction of facilities and implementation of a four-year medical school at ECU. The charter class of 28 students enrolled in 1977. The school received full accreditation in February 1981, and the first class graduated that spring.
Today, the Brody School of Medicine at ECU enrolls 80 students with each class.
Privette retired from patient care in 2008 and now works as an administrator with the East Carolina Heart Institute at Vidant Medical Center. He's also a board member of the ECU medical foundation.
"The opportunity to go to medical school was something I was excited about but knew I didn't have the GPA or MCAT to get into UNC or Bowman-Gray," he recalled. "They basically gave us a chance to go to medical school."
The son of a Baptist minister from Havelock with a biology degree from ECU, Privette fit the demographic East Carolina was aiming for: North Carolinians who wanted to stay in the state, preferably in the region, to practice. He and his classmates knew they had to do their best to make the school successful.
Once in Chapel Hill, however, they experienced a different, learn-at-your-own-pace environment.
"All of a sudden, we didn't have weekly exams," he said. Instead, students were given self-instruction packets to study on their own if they preferred. "It was so much more relaxing."
After completing medical school and a residency at N.C. Memorial Hospital, Privette completed a fellowship in cardiology at Vanderbilt University in Tennessee, then returned to Greenville to open his practice. The program helped fulfill the vision of Dr. Leo Jenkins, president of what was then East Carolina College, to build a medical school in Greenville. The first class is being honored this weekend by the ECU Medical and Health Sciences Foundation.
Dr. Douglas Privette
For the first few years, he also served as an ECU clinical assistant professor, with students rotating through his practice for a month at a time.
Privette said he, probably like most graduates of UNC, is proud of his medical alma mater. But ECU holds a special place, too. (His daughter and son-in-law have medical degrees from ECU.)
"We are lucky we got into medical school," he said. "We were lucky ECU was starting its medical school the year we were starting. If ECU had not had its medical school, it's conceivable I would not be a physician now. All 20 members of the class feel the same way. We were at the right place at the right time."
Today, the class members have spread north to Ohio, south to Florida and west to the Rocky Mountains and have impressive accomplishments. For example, Dr. Sheldon Michael Retchin is a national expert in health policy and health care delivery, senior vice president for health sciences at Virginia Commonwealth University Health System and chief executive of the VCU Health System.
"It is just fascinating to be here at a time when the school has clearly come into its own, and the earliest graduates are displaying all of the high qualities of the profession, in leadership and service, that were imagined so many years ago," said Dr. Paul Cunningham, dean of the medical school.

There's a fresh new way to order at every Cousins Subs store in the country. Wisconsin-based Cousins Subs rolled out nearly 170 new indoor and outdoor menuboards throughout its system. The vibrant new menuboards will help establish consistency and increase margins at all Cousins Subs locations.
The new Cousins Subs menuboards feature a contemporary aesthetic and have been re-organized to focus on placement of premium products. Now highlighting product descriptions rather than images, the entire Cousins Subs menu is presented to the consumer, with hot items on one side and cold items on the other side.
Cousins Subs' menuboard initiative was completed in just seven months to support the company's roll out of 10 new products in 2012. Cousins Subs' menuboard roll out engaged nearly every department in the company, including marketing, IT, operations, and the Cousins Subs Franchise Advisory Council.
"This was an 'all hands on deck' effort which demonstrated our commitment to refreshing the Cousins Subs brand image and supporting our owner/operators and franchisees," says Justin McCoy, director of marketing at Cousins Subs. "The new menuboards have given our system the fast-casual look we desired and highlight our new creative direction. After just three weeks in the system, we're already seeing increased margins and consumer trial of new products, even those with limited or no marketing backing."
Re-investing significant advertising fund dollars for the program, Cousins Subs' new menuboards can be efficiently changed at any time based on menu mix and sub sales. The consumer-friendly menuboards are modular with a set middle section, interchangeable tiles, and quick turnaround paper inserts. While the sub offerings make up the middle section, the exterior panels feature Cousins Subs bread offerings, toppings and dressings, salads, extras, sweets, soups, quenchers, and even catering options.
"The new menuboards are the biggest marketing tool we have. Our customers have noticed the difference and are starting to try new offerings that they never even knew we had," says Cousins Subs franchisee Maria Piotter.
Cousins Subs teamed with Visual Graphic Systems of New Jersey to design and develop the new menuboards. Cousins Subs is also installing refreshed new point of sale and in-store materials in all stores.

BOISE, Idaho (AP) — After learning that the Idaho State Veterans Cemetery won't allow her to be buried with her partner's ashes, a U.S. Navy vet is working to overturn a state constitutional amendment that says Idaho doesn't recognize same-sex marriage
Madelynn Taylor of Boise said after her spouse Jean Mixner died in 2012 that she went to the cemetery to make arrangements for them to be buried together. But cemetery rules require a valid marriage certificate.
The Idaho Constitution does not allow the state veteran's cemetery to recognize a same-sex marriage for burial rights, said Tamara Mackenthun, a deputy administrator with the Idaho Division of Veterans Services.
"I could take the same documents and get buried in Arlington if I needed to, with no problems," said Taylor, who married Mixner in California in 2008. "But here they said it's a state veteran's cemetery, not a national cemetery. So we have to go by the state laws. So, we gotta change the state laws."
Taylor, 74, served in the Navy from 1958 to 1964, when she was discharged after another recruit told superiors that she and several other women in her unit were gay. Taylor later petitioned and had her discharge revised to honorable.
As a longtime Idaho resident with brothers and sisters in the state, Taylor said she wants to be buried in Idaho — with Mixner.
"I just feel that it's the right place for me. You know, I'm a veteran. So they should let me ... in fact they would let me alone, be in that crypt," Taylor said. "But I don't want to be alone. I want Jean with me."
Taylor, who said she is usually a "background" person, has begun lobbying to overturn the 2006 voter-passed amendment that says: "A marriage between a man and a woman is the only domestic legal union that shall be valid or recognized in this state."
She joined the Add the Words campaign that sought to amend the state's Human Rights Act to make it illegal to discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity. She said she was arrested twice during the recent legislative session.
For now, Taylor keeps Mixner's ashes in her closet.
She said the boxes are smaller than the space the veteran's cemetery allots for cremains.
"Two of them will fit in there easily," Taylor said. "If they're going to put me in there, they might as well slide in a second box."
"I don't see where the ashes of a couple old lesbians is going to hurt anyone," Taylor said.
Taylor said if she dies without both being accepted for burial in the cemetery, someone will keep their ashes together until the rules change.
"Eventually I'm going to be there," she said. "It'll happen. They might as well give up and let us go now."

Morgan, LeVert and Albrecht keys for Michigan
Apr. 07, 2013
ATLANTA (AP) — Jordan Morgan hurt an ankle midway through the season, and he lost his starting job at the beginning of the NCAA tournament.
He was on the court at the end against Syracuse, though — and he made perhaps the biggest play of the game.
Morgan drew a charge on a driving Brandon Triche with the Wolverines clinging to a two-point lead, and Michigan went on to beat Syracuse 61-56 on Saturday night to advance to the national title game.
Player of the year Trey Burke scored only seven points, but the Wolverines were lifted by three key reserves. Caris LeVert and Spike Albrecht made some early shots to loosen the Syracuse zone, and at the end it was Morgan who helped hold off the Orange.
"I always talk about the outliers that are out there — you just don't know who it's going to be," Michigan coach John Beilein said. "Whether it's Jordan Morgan's charge, or Caris hitting those or Spike hitting. That's been the key to our season. So many times, somebody else stepped up."
Michigan will face Louisville in Monday night's title game.
LeVert and Albrecht — hardly the team's top options offensively — combined for four 3-pointers in the first half. Syracuse (30-10) rallied and trailed 58-56 when Triche drove to the basket. Morgan, who has ceded playing time to freshman Mitch McGary, was waiting to draw the offensive foul with 19.2 seconds left.
"He was going to be in there at the end when we needed stops," Beilein said. "Really happy for him."
Syracuse had another chance with Michigan up three, but the Wolverines (31-7) got a stop, and it was Morgan who capped the victory with a breakaway dunk.
Quite a moment for a guy who still hasn't played more than 6 minutes in any of the Wolverines' NCAA tournament games this year. Morgan played 5 on Saturday.
"You can get down if you want to, but I didn't let myself do that. My teammates too, they've really been encouraging me and just keeping faith and knowing that my team is going to need me at some point to step up and make plays," Morgan said. "If I'm not there, then that could be the end of our season."
Michigan already passed one big test in this NCAA tournament when the Wolverines picked apart Virginia Commonwealth's press on the first weekend. Syracuse's 2-3 zone figured to pose a different set of challenges — but Michigan has a deep roster of shooters.
That was obvious in the first half. Burke scored only three points in the half, but he had plenty of help. LeVert, who looked like he might redshirt at the beginning of the season, made a 3-pointer with 11:25 left in the first half. That snapped a dry spell in which the Wolverines missed eight straight 3s.
"We all tried to come in and give quality minutes off the bench. I think we did," LeVert said. "They really keyed in on Trey and I found myself open a couple of times."
LeVert's second 3-pointer gave Michigan an 18-17 lead. Then it was Albrecht's turn. Burke's backup at point guard connected twice from long range, and after Burke made a long 3-pointer of his own, the Wolverines led 36-25 at halftime.
LeVert had made only 11 shots from 3-point range coming into the game. Albrecht had made only 12.
Michigan was doing what no other team seemed capable of lately — the Wolverines were beating the zone by shooting over all those long-armed defenders and moving the ball well enough to create more space on the perimeter.
LeVert's main contributions this season have been at the defensive end, and Albrecht's job is usually to take some of the ball-handling pressure off Burke. Any scoring Michigan gets from either is a bonus, but on this night, those points early on were big.
In the second half, the Wolverines wore down a bit. But they held on, thanks to Morgan, who had struggled to come back from a right ankle injury.
The 6-foot-8 junior, an elder statesman on a team with several important freshmen, was on the court at the end — and boy did Michigan need him.
"Jordan Morgan came off the bench and did a fantastic job for us," Michigan guard Tim Hardaway Jr. said. "He goes out and makes a lot of plays that we don't see out there."

Fitbug vs Fitbit: Survival of the Fittest?
With fitness technology devices becoming a rapidly exploding category, companies are competing for consumer attention in an increasingly saturated market. More than 300 million body sensors are expected to be in use by 2016, and each fitness tech company is eager to win over consumer attention and loyalty to their products.
Fitbug, a company that has been producing what they term "health coaching devices" since 2005, filed a lawsuit on Friday against competitor Fitbit alleging that the company has engaged in trademark infringement as well as unfair competition and business practices. Fitbug has asked the U.S. District Court in Northern California to order Fitbit to permanently cease the use of the Fitbit mark, and prohibit the company from engaging in conduct that would continue to cause confusion between the two brands and services.
Fitbug is alleging that the Fitbit trademark infringes upon Fitbug's rights and causes confusion among customers and that Fitbit's unfair business practices have cause irreparable harm and damage to the Fitbug brand. Fitbug, known for devices such as the Fitbug Air and the Fitbug Orb, has been making fit tech devices since 2005; Fitbit, founded in 2007, is known for the Fitbit One and Fitbit Zip.
Fitbug's lawsuit states that Fitbit began distributing nearly identical fitness-related portable electronic devices and online services four years after Fitbug began U.S. operations and three years after Fitbug obtained its first U.S. registration. Fitbug claims it was one of the first companies to combine portable electronic devices, nutrition advice, digital coaching and the Internet to help users lose weight, track calories, and be generally more active. Both companies specialize in fit tech "appcessories," which center on an activity tracking device and complementary app or web services.
Fitbug claims in the last 12 months they've had numerous customer service calls and emails about Fitbit devices by consumers who were confused about the difference between the two companies. They also claim that multiple media publications and social media sites have confused products from the two companies--and that even potential business partners have been unable to keep the two companies separate. (Which, hey, we can sympathize with--do you have any idea how many times a relative has asked me how it's going writing for PC Magazine?)
The complaint also maintains that Fitbit consistently uses a logo, icons, photographs, and imagery that is similar or identical to Fitbug's and that many of the images placed on user manuals and packaging is infringing. Furthermore, Fitbug says that the Fitbit name, which differs in only two letters, and logo (both include blue dots over the 'I' and similar fonts) is hurting business. Fitbit has yet to respond to the allegations; it is unknown how this may impact devices in development or currently on the market.

Immigration law is the set of rules that regulate entry into the United States. The Immigration and Nationality Act, or INA, is the main body of immigration laws. It was created in 1952 as the original set of organized laws governing U.S. immigration. While it has been amended many times, the structure and idea of the INA remain the same. In addition to standing alone, the INA is also contained in the United States Code (a collection of all federal laws). When someone talks about certain immigration laws, they are generally referring to statutes in the INA.
Immigration law is regulated and implemented at the federal level by the Immigration and Naturalization Service. The INS is a component of the United States Government Department of Justice; it decides who may enter the U.S., how long they can stay, and when they must leave. It also regulates the ways in which one can become a United States citizen (naturalize) or under what circumstances one can remain in the country or be deported.
While United States immigration policy is complicated and confusing and it may seem impossible for someone to come to the United States, or to stay after being threatened with deportation, there are various rules and loopholes which may apply to your particular situation. Much of United States immigration law covers four main categories: green cards, visas, citizenship, and deportation.
Green Cards
A green card, also called an immigrant visa, is a document which allows someone who is not a United States citizen to stay in the U.S. indefinitely. Green cards are generally granted to those with immediate family members who are U.S. citizens or those who are coming to the United States for certain types of work, such as agricultural labor. Green cards are commonly denied, most often to those with elicit criminal records or a contagious disease. Most aliens who wish to apply for U.S. citizenship first enter the U.S. with a green card.
Non-Immigrant Visas
A non-immigrant visa, commonly referred to as simply a visa, is a document that allows temporary travel to the United States and can be granted for various purposes. Most aliens who receive non-immigrant visas are students who wish to study in the U.S. while others are tourists or temporary workers. A non-immigrant visa grants someone access to the U.S. through any "port-of-entry", which are most commonly airports. Non-immigrant visas eventually expire, and anyone who remains in the United States after the expiration of their visa is considered an illegal alien under the United States Immigration Law.
For more information on non-immigrant visas, including the various types, .
To become a U.S. citizen, one must undergo naturalization. Naturalization is the legal process in which an immigrant or foreign citizen completes an application and passes two tests to eventually become a formal citizen of the United States. In addition to being a certain age and living a lawful life, one must also have a basic belief in the fundamental ideals of the Constitution in order to undergo naturalization. The first step in the naturalization process is the Application for Naturalization.
To view the application, and more information on citizenship, click here.
Deportation is the process by which an illegal alien is forced to leave the United States. Deportation happens to people who have either entered the U.S. illegally, entered with a visa that is now expired, or entered and stayed lgally but have now broken certain U.S. laws. What most people do not realize is that while the alien has broken the United States Immigration Law, he still has legal rights and can even challenge his deportation on certain grounds.
For more information on deportation, including under what circumstances it can be avoided, .
Why to Consider Hiring an Immigration Lawyer
Immigration laws are often complex and whether or not you want to visit, the United States, move to the United States or become a U.S. citizen, an immigration lawyer can help make sure that you are able to accomplish your goals. Immigration matters are often serious and can have profound consequences for you and your family, so the right immigration lawyer can make sure that your interests are well represented.
How to Choose the Right Immigration Lawyer
In evaluating an immigration lawyer, the most important factors to consider are experience, fee structure and simply whether you like that lawyer or not. Typically, less experienced lawyers are more appropriate for uncomplicated immigration issues like obtaining a visa or green card. If the issues are complex and you are facing deportation, a more experienced immigration lawyers may be more appropriate, though there are excellent lawyers who have only a few years of experience.
Immigration lawyers generally charge on an hourly basis, though some lawyers charge a flat fee for specific uncomplicated issues.

I was doing some maintenance on the SQLSaturday web site recently and one request kinda low on the list was to try using Bing Maps. We've been using Google Maps (see SQLSaturday #17 for an example) because it's easy to use. Just enter the address and make sure it's the one you want, then click "Link" in the upper right hand menu and copy the HTML, giving you something like this:

View Larger Map
Not much to look at but it works, no code. We've got a column in event table where it's stored, making it easily and nicely data driven. When I added the task my thought was it only going to consist of changing the prompt in the setup to "bing". No…..
Turns out that Bing doesn't provide that same kind of support, that I could find at least. Putting a link to the map is easy, but a live working map seemed to require code. I found a couple of blog posts like this one and groaned, didn't really want to put time into it. Finally convince myself on a Sunday morning that it would be a good learning opportunity and off I go.
If you look at the code in the post I just referenced they are calling a JavaScript function in the Body OnLoad event. That's easy enough to copy, except – I'm using master pages (a easy way to apply consistent elements to each page) and the master page has the BODY tag. I don't really want this function running on every page when it only applies to one. Finally I ask the right question and end up with this in the Page load event:
'only run map code if we have the data
If Me.lblLatitude.Text <> "" And Me.lblLongitude.Text <> "" Then
Me.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(Page.GetType, "Startup", "")
Me.BingMap.Visible = False
Me.litMap.Text = oEvent.MapURL
End If
For those less code inclined by the time this runs I've already loaded and displayed the lat/long from the database (stored as varchar if you're wondering) and now I'm branching based on whether those values exist. That is to avoid breaking all the old events that have the Google code stored. The meat of it is the RegisterStartupScript that ultimately adds the call to the GetMap function in the Body OnLoad event.
Then, I need to add some JavaScript to the location page. I think this can be injected at runtime as well, but since it won't change much, saw no reason not to embed it:

SAN CRISTOBAL CUCHO, Guatemala (AP) — An 11-year-old boy killed in Guatemala along with nine relatives when a 7.4-magnitude earthquake buried them in rubble at their rock quarry was a U.S. citizen, the family said Friday.
Aldo Dominguez Vasquez was born in Santa Clara, California, and his parents still live in the United States, a cousin, Julio Vasquez, said.
The boy returned to Guatemala with his mother when he was 1 year old after his parents divorced. Shortly afterward, Aldo's mother returned to the United States to work and left the boy with an aunt and uncle who owned the quarry, Vasquez said.
Aldo, his uncle and aunt, six of their children and another cousin were working at the quarry when the earthquake hit Wednesday.
Only one son survived, a 19-year-old who stayed home when the others went to the quarry so he could take care of last-minute details for receiving an accounting degree. Ivan Vasquez was the first in his family to have a professional career, and his father, who was killed, had been saving for a party to celebrate the Nov. 23 graduation.
Aldo, who according to his U.S. passport was born Dec. 27, 2000, was one of at least 52 people killed in the quake, which was Guatemala's strongest in 36 years.
He was buried Friday along with seven cousins, the oldest a 14-year-old girl, and his aunt and uncle after an all-night wake in San Cristobal Cucho, a farm town of about 15,000 inhabitants.
Relatives carried the 10 rustic wooden coffins on their shoulders from a hilltop down to a park, where hundreds of people approached them to pay their respects. From there, the coffins were taken to the cemetery while people in the procession sang "beyond the sun, beyond the sun, I have a home, a sweet home."
Ivan Vasquez hugged each of the 10 coffins, then collapsed onto the ground, crying uncontrollably.
Antonia Miranda, Aldo's teacher, said she would miss the boy's warmth.
"He would caress my hair while he talked to me," she said sobbing.

Pancreatitis is inflammation of the pancreas caused by activation of its own digestive enzymes inside the organ. Treatments are geared toward helping the pancreas recover from inflammation, preventing problems with other organs such as the kidneys and lungs, and reducing pain and other symptoms.
The University of Chicago Medicine's gastroenterologists and gastrointestinal surgeons are experienced in diagnosing and treating all forms of pancreatitis, which include the following:
- Acute pancreatitis, which is marked by one attack followed by complete recovery of pancreatic function
- Chronic pancreatitis, which is an ongoing problem that typically does not resolve and may lead to chronic pain, exocrine insufficiency and/or endocrine insufficiency
- Hereditary pancreatitis, which is a rare, inherited condition characterized by early onset of repeat episodes of acute pancreatitis, frequently leading to chronic pancreatitis. This condition increases the risk for developing pancreatic cancer
Our pancreatic care team offers the full spectrum of diagnostic and treatment options for pancreatitis. In the few cases where surgical treatment of the pancreas is required, our specialists can perform a number of advanced procedures, including:
- Autologous islet cell transplantation (islet cell autotransplantation) to prevent diabetes or limit diabetes after total pancreatectomy. This treatment is only available at select hospitals.
- Duodenum-sparing pancreatic head resection, including the Beger procedure, the Frey procedure, and the Bern modification.
- Spleen-preserving pancreatic tail resection (distal pancreatectomy)
- Minimally invasive (laparoscopic) pancreatic operations, such as pseudocyst drainage and distal pancreatectomy
- Endoscopic (non-surgical) placement of pancreatic stents and drainage of pancreatic fluid collections

You can bet it would be front page news if the FBI were investigating 100 Christian extremists, extreme racists, or potentially violent homophobes in the military. But its only potential Islamic terrorists in the military, so it is no big deal.
The FBI has conducted more than 100 investigations into suspected Islamic extremists within the military, NPR has learned. About a dozen of those cases are considered serious.
Officials define that as a case requiring a formal investigation to gather information against suspects who appear to have demonstrated a strong intent to attack military targets. This is the first time the figures have been publicly disclosed.
The FBI and Department of Defense call these cases "insider threats." They include not just active and reserve military personnel but also individuals who have access to military facilities such as contractors and close family members with dependent ID cards.
Officials would not provide details about the cases and the FBI would not confirm the numbers, but they did say that cases seen as serious could include, among others things, suspects who seem to be planning an attack or were in touch with "dangerous individuals" who were goading them to attack.
Will it take another Fort Hood style attack or worse to get America serious about this problem again? Or is the problem that Americans are serious about the problem, but Americas leaders -- and the lapdog media -- are not?

Author Vince Flynn's counterterrorism operative Mitch Rapp is not the only literary character to have new adventures after his creator's death. Others include:
— James Bond. Novelist Ian Fleming, who died in 1964, wrote 14 books and short story collections featuring his iconic, debonair British superspy. Other writers, including Kingsley Amis, John Gardner, Raymond Benson, Jeffery Deaver and William Boyd, have written new Bond adventures, some modern-day and some set in the 1960s. The latest, Boyd's "Solo," the 38th Bond book, was published in 2013 to commemorate the series' 60th anniversary.
— Scarlett O'Hara. The estate of Margaret Mitchell has authorized two sequels to "Gone With the Wind" — Alexandra Ripley's "Scarlett" (1991) and Donald McCaig's "Rhett Butler's People" (2007). Simon & Schuster's Atria Books (also Flynn's publisher) plans a prequel, McCaig's "Ruth's Journey," this fall that gives the back story of Mammy, O'Hara's devoted house slave.
— Spenser. The estate of crime writer Robert B. Parker, who died in 2010, has authorized at least three novels by Ace Atkins that continue Parker's series about the Boston private investigator.
— Jason Bourne. Thriller writer Robert Ludlum penned three novels featuring the globe-trotting adventurer. After Ludlum's death in 2001, author Eric Van Lustbader wrote nine sequels; the latest, "The Bourne Ascendency," was published this year. (Flynn's new ghostwriter, Kyle Mills, has written three novels under Ludlum's name.)
— Hercule Poirot. Agatha Christie's estate has licensed a new mystery about her famous Belgian detective. "The Monogram Murders," by British crime fiction author Sophie Hannah, is to be published in September.
