The Stanardsville Town Council wants to ban 18-wheelers from driving through its downtown area.
People who live on Main Street are complaining that the trucks speed, leave behind soot and are loud at night.
Many of the truck drivers are using Route 33 (Main Street) as a short-cut in their route.
People living on Main Street and business owners there are telling the Town Council they are fed up.
"Day, night, middle of the afternoon, just very loud and very noisy," said Rosa Stalworth who lives on Main Street.
Noise isn't the only problem for Stalworth and her family. She says her daughter can't even ride her bike in front of the house.
"You're scared one of the kids are going to fall into the street and get hit or something like that," said Stalworth.
Roy Dye, director of the Stanardsville Area Revitalization Program, says safety is another reason the Town Council wants the restrictions.
"Safety of pedestrians, both those walking along the streets on Main Street in the town as well as school children," said Dye.
If passed, the truck restriction will only apply to semi trucks that are using Main Street as a way to cut through. Trucks that are making deliveries would still be allowed.
The truck restriction is now in the hands of the Greene County Board of Supervisors. If the board votes in favor of the truck restriction the proposal will be forwarded on to the Virginia Department of Transportation. From there - VDOT officials would study the plan to see if it's a fit for the area.
"Stay on 29 and use the bypass - 33 bypass - whether they're going across the mountains or coming from the mountains, that's what the bypass is for," said Dye.
The Greene County Board of Supervisors will hold a public hearing about the restrictions Tuesday, May 28 at 7:30 p.m. They're asking anybody with concerns, questions or comments to come out. The meeting is being held at the County Administration Building.

Sleep Train Arena, Sacramento, CA
SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- DeMarcus Cousins pulled his Sacramento Kings teammates together just prior to overtime and passionately let them know what needed to be done. Play together, urged the second-year center.
And that's just what the Kings did, putting aside the somewhat selfish play that has been prevalent much of the season.
Marcus Thornton scored 28 points and Tyreke Evans had 26 points and nine assists to help the Sacramento Kings beat the Golden State Warriors 114-106 in overtime Saturday night.
Cousins was a huge factor with 21 points and a career-high 20 rebounds in helping the Kings win consecutive games for only the second time all season. His impassioned speech heading into overtime didn't hurt, either.
"Usually when we get in that situation like that in the past we've had a tendency to do it one-on-one and do it by ourselves," Cousins said. "So I just made sure I made it clear that we weren't going to win the game playing one-on-one, we've got to play together, team defense, team offense."
The Kings scored the first nine points in overtime to win consecutive games for the second time this season.
Evans scored five points in the overtime for the Kings, who ran off nine straight points to begin OT.
Some sound defense by the Kings was evident as well. The Warriors went cold in overtime, making one of nine shots.
"They outworked us in overtime and we are going to have to individually and collectively look in the mirror and own up to a lack of effort," Warriors coach Mark Jackson said. "Their starters outscored our starters 104-63. You can sugar-coat it all you want, but that was just bad basketball."
Dorell Wright scored 24 points for Golden State, which made a season-high 16 3-pointers. Nate Robinson had 20 points, Monta Ellis scored 18, Klay Thompson had 16, and Stephen Curry finished with 11.
Salmons made a 3-pointer and Thompson scored inside on the next possession to give the Kings a 107-102 lead in overtime. A drive by Evans put the Kings up 111-102.
"This group has shown from day one that they have the ability to get back in games, especially at home," Kings coach Keith Smart said. "They haven't done that yet on the road. They have shown they can somehow make shots and make plays, rebound, and come out with steals."
Cousins had 21 points and a career-high 20 rebounds, the first 20-20 game for the Kings since Brad Miller did it on Jan. 14, 2009. Jason Thompson added 15 points and 16 rebounds, and John Salmons contributed 15 points.
Trailing by three points, Thompson made a corner 3, his fourth of the quarter, to tie the game at 102 with nine seconds left. Evans missed a long jumper with one second left to send the game into overtime.
Thompson and Robinson each had 12 fourth-quarter points when the Warriors outscored the Kings 26-15. They combined for Golden State's first 21 points of the fourth quarter when both Ellis and Curry remained on the bench. Ellis and Curry were also on the bench for much of the fourth quarter in Tuesday's comeback win over the visiting Kings.
"Sometimes our first unit is not always going to bring us energy," Robinson said. "That's our (the reserves) job. We come off the bench to bring the team energy and build it up for the starting five. I think our bench just buys into it."
It was the first time the Kings have scored 100 or more points in 15 games and only the third time all season that Sacramento has been in triple digits.
Thornton struggled with his shot in the first half, but made amends in the third quarter. The Kings guard made four 3-pointers and scored 18 points to energize Sacramento, who outscored the Warriors 34-22 and took an 87-76 lead into the fourth.
Thornton got going quickly in the third quarter, scoring 15 of the Kings first 24 points. His 3-pointer at the 4:51 mark put the Kings ahead 77-71.
"You see that over and over again. I call him Mr. Big Shot," Cousins said. "He can score with the best of them."
The Kings are the youngest team in the NBA, at an average of 24 years, 347 days, and the Warriors are next, a mere two days older. Their youth was evident at times in a fast-paced game that had a combined 39 turnovers
Wright scored 19 points and Ellis had nine in the opening half when the Warriors took a 54-53 lead into the break. Cousins had 12 points and eight rebounds, Thornton scored 10 points, and Thompson added nine points and nine rebounds.
Game notes
The Warriors made eight of 12 3-pointers in the first half. ... Wright exceeded his previous season high of 23 points with a baseline drive for a basket midway through the third quarter. ... The lead changed hands 20 times in a tight first half where the biggest lead for either team was five points. ... The Kings recalled second-year C Hassan Whiteside from the Reno Bighorns of the NBA Development League.

20. Academics at Think Tanks
John Blundell, Distinguished Senior Fellow, the Institute of Economic Affairs
The interface between academics and wannabe academics and the think tank world is both potentially very rich and potentially hugely problematic.
Our typical academic goes from grade school through the undergraduate and graduate school years, maybe a post-doc, and then the tenure process and finally the full professorship. It can—it does—take a couple of decades, and at each stage the potential synergies change. Let's take a walk through each stage.
Undergraduate: Opportunities start to open up for you as an undergraduate. In my two decades as head of one of the leading think tanks in the world, London's Institute of Economic Affairs, I accumulated many memories of really stellar young students. Intern, write, learn about the ideas, prepare yourself for grad school. Other sections in this guide can give you more advice in these areas.
Graduate School: Here the dynamics start to change. Now you are very firmly on possibly several professorial radar screens. I have knowledge of departments that have made life unbearable for graduate students who have been working for or published by free-market-leaning think tanks. Equally, I know of departments that positively welcome, encourage, and even reward such involvement. And I've known departments which are ideologically neutered or maybe balanced: neutered in the sense there is no pervading climate of opinion—balanced in the sense they have one of every "ism."
So the choice of program starts to influence what's on and what's not.
This is also the point at which your choice of dissertation will hugely affect your usefulness (or otherwise) to the policy community. I think I can safely say that an economist with some tax and growth model will be more in demand than an archaeologist—even though I know of one of the latter who writes great stuff about why digs do better when privately as opposed to publicly funded.
And then you need to think about where the dissertation will appear: as a bunch of journal articles, as a university press book, as a trade book, or as a think tank book. That list goes in descending order of importance for most wannabe academics! In some "academic" circles, think tanks are equal to vanity publishers—as in paid-for and therefore not worth a darn thing. I once heard a professor call think tanks a cancer on the academy.
Tenure Track: This is very similar to graduate school—it really does depend on what the department wants from you. If they want publications in the top twenty journals, teaching, and departmental service, then your brilliant policy paper for some think tank won't win brownie points. It will probably even lose you some votes. Be careful.
Tenure: So now you are tenured. It is interesting to note how many professors on gaining tenure feel themselves much freer to go into more policy and think tank type areas. In the life of the classical liberal academic, there is often a dip in think tank interest as they navigate the final stages of the Ph.D. and tenure and then a surge as they reach the latter.
So what is going on? I think the two main broad veins are these:
• Academics address tiny audiences; by publishing the "accessible to the layman" popular version of their work I risked being hugged and told, "You made me famous!" as I was on several occasions.
• On the other hand, think tank entrepreneurs like me know a great deal about who is doing what and are able to write immediately for the less academic, more popular and accessible market, and we can thus step in and shortcut matters; we can propel an academic to the forefront of debate because we have one foot in academia and the other in the policy world. We act as a bridge. We platform the academic. We are the springboard into a much wider, more prominent role.
One final point: Not all think tanks are the same as to where they position themselves in the war of ideas. Some are much more "academic," while others are much closer to the coalface of politics. Some target the intellectuals who create the climate of opinion, believing like Hayek and Keynes that the politicians will follow. Some write books and monographs; others do shorter papers. Some use outside academics to review manuscripts, while others do not.
This last observation is quite important. At the IEA, we use a double-blind outside review process, and all manuscripts go to at least two experts. The author is not told their names, and the experts are not told who the author is. This means the IEA monograph can appear under the heading of "Refereed Publications" on the CV. And the refereeing process does improve the product.
I have worked with thousands of academics and hundreds of think tanks all over the world. To close this article I asked myself who has done the best job of combining a serious academic career with think-tankery. Many great names came to mind from Milton Friedman and George Stigler, whose "Roofs or Ceilings?" was published by the Foundation for Economic Education in September 1946, to F.A. Hayek, James Buchanan, Gordon Tullock, and Axel Leijonhufvud's classic IEA papers of the '60s, '70s and '80s. But I kept coming back to Dr. James, who is the professor of education policy in the Department of Education at the U.K.'s Newcastle University. Over the past two decades, he has flawlessly built a great academic career, a serious list of think tank publications, and even his own think tank, the E.G. West Centre.
He has won huge international prizes and acclaim and done very serious media work. His IEA monograph The Global Education Industry became the Cato Institute's The Beautiful Tree. Penguin then picked up the rights, and The Beautiful Tree went to number one on the nonfiction bestseller list in India and won the 2010 Sir Antony Fisher Memorial Award from the Atlas Economic Research Foundation. The Beautiful Tree really is the model for any ideas-oriented young person to read: it is original, beautifully written, insightful, exciting, jaw-dropping, scholarly yet accessible, eye-opening and mind-changing. Buy it, read it, study it, and learn from it.
John Blundell is the distinguished senior fellow at the Institute of Economic Affairs, where he was director general from 1993 to 2010. He is a past president of the Institute for Humane Studies, the Atlas Economic Research Foundation, and the Charles G. Koch Charitable Foundation. He is author of Waging the War of Ideas and Margaret Thatcher: A Portrait of the Iron Lady. He serves on the boards of IHS and the Atlas Foundation and is writing a book on the 25 women who have done the most for liberty in the history of the United States.

A Simple 4-Step Sciatica Home Treatment
Are you suffering from sciatica? Maybe you need some immediate relief to get the pain under control just so you can make it through the day. Treatment from chiropractors and other medical professionals can be costly, and to be quite honest, not very effective. Let's go over a quick sciatica home treatment that should get you back up and on your feet in no time.
First, ice to affected area. Sciatica is caused when the sciatic nerve is irritated and becomes inflamed. There are many reasons why this could happen, but either way, the problem is coming from inflammation.
Some people may tell you to use heat to help relax the muscles around the nerve. This is helpful, but for the first two days or so, you should limit yourself to icing the area. This will reduce the swelling.
Discover How to Heal Your Back on Your Own
After that you can move on to using heat. Using heat too soon will actually worsen the inflammation. So take care of the inflammation first by icing it as the first step of your sciatica home treatment.
Secondly, align your pelvis. Muscle imbalances can cause many of the problems of sciatica. By making small postural changes, you can often reduce or even eliminate sciatica pain.
Stand up as you normally would and place your hands on your hips. Notice if your hips are tilted backward (most probable) or tilted forward. Ideally you want your hips to be in a neutral or middle position.
Imagine it as if your pelvis was a bowl of water. If you pelvis tilts too far in one direction or another, the water will spill out. Try to keep the bowl balanced and don't let any of the imaginary water spill out as a sciatica home treatment.
This may take some time to get used to sitting and standing in a new way. Your muscle may get tired quickly since they are not accustomed to supporting you in this way, but keep it up and they will adapt.
Thirdly, take care of your Piriformis. Your Piriformis muscle is a small muscle that connects your hips to your legs. It is responsible for helping your rotate your legs, and it also happens to run right next to your sciatic nerve. If the Piriformis becomes too tight or tense it can crush your sciatic nerve and cause you a lot of pain.
There are some simple stretching exercises for Piriformis muscles you can do as a sciatica home treatment that will help you release the tension in these muscles and ease any pain on your sciatic nerve that is caused by a tense Piriformis muscle.
Forth, keep active. Muscles are generally looser and less tight if you keep active. Maybe you've noticed that your pain is worse in the morning? This is because after a night of sleeping (where you are not active) your muscles are not as "warmed-up."
Now, this doesn't mean you need to engage is serious and intense sports for this sciatica home treatment. Take things at your own pace. Even something a simple as taking a leisurely walk can help keep you active and help those muscles stay loose. What is most important is that it is something that you can comfortably do.
So try these four things together as part of your sciatica home treatment. It can sometimes take a few weeks to notice real improvement so stick with it for a while and dedicate a little time each day to make sure that you can eliminate your sciatica and regain your mobility.
Put an End to All the Pain and Suffering. Take Control of Your Own Health

I'd say druid just because going kitty is so cool, plus with new models, it'll be fun. However, you have so many choices you might have a hard time deciding. If you like trying a lot of things out, go druid. If you like setting your sites on one thing and not switching, still go druid if you get the notion.
However, above all, if you get to the point that the class you play isn't fun...stop and try again, or find out why you are bored and spark a new interest in it. In truth, doing a little research before picking your class will help you see if the playstyle matches how you are. If you are into mashing buttons and being up close a personal...warrior tank in my opinion. If you are cold and calculated about every move you make, and every action you react with lightning speed...any healing class. Just have fun with the game, but don't let the game have fun with you.

When Loki falls from Asgard to Midgard, he ends in Torchwood where he meets Rose Tyler. She automatically sees something is off with the way he looks at her. It takes her weeks before she finally finds the nerve to ask him about it. So he tells her about Sigyn, his lost wife whom Rose looks perfectly alike.
"She was more beautiful than the sun, more refined than the moon. Legends say the stars were jealous of the light in her eyes. There was more gold in her hair than there will ever be in the palace of Asgard. Her heart was more gentle than all the others Asgardians combined. She could have chosen any noble warrior. Any duke or any count, and yet she decided to stay with me. I could live a thousand more lives and never deserve her."
"She sounds… perfect."
"You are."
That is…in some ways a very weird couple but I like the idea! Also Loki describing her was just *__*
This text has destroyed my life.

sno cones and fuzzy kittens for the following:
I made this chapter super long and super funny especially for you reviewers.
06: S t o c k h o l m s y n d r o m e
Soap's POV
"Just when I thought that things couldn't get any more boring..." I mumbled to myself.
After staring out the bus window for almost an hour, cornfields and windmills were still the only things staring back at me.
/You wanna know what we say in the club? (ay bay bay)
White folks, gangstas and them thugs (ay bay bay)/
"What the?"
I broke my gaze with the passing trees and fished the cell phone out of my pocket.
I smiled. Gabe must've programmed himself into my contacts.
"Hola, mi amor." He chuckled at my greeting. "What's up?"
"Meh. Bus ride is really boring, so I decided to call my favorite señorita." I smiled at the comment. "So what's up on the FOB bus?"
"Not much... Joe and Andy are jumping around, playing Guitar Hero. Pete's playing with Hemmy. Patrick's belting out show tunes."
"And you?"
"I'm talking to some sexy fucker."
"Sounds like fun!" he said, enthusiastically.
"It is."
"Who is it?" I heard someone faintly ask.
"Ooh, gimme the phone."
"C'mon, Gabe."
"But I'm talking to her!"
-shuffling noises-
"Hey Soap! It's Vicky!"
"Did you just beat up Gabe for the phone?"
"Yeah, I'm sitting on his skinny ass as we speak."
"I have a very bodacious ass, thank you very much," Gabe protested.
"Haha, that's great," I said, chuckling.
I've only known them about a week, but Vicky and Gabe were already on my list of favorite people.
"We've gotta hang ASAP."
"For sure. This sausage fest is boring me," I said, looking around.
"You just read my mind, Soap...Ow, stop that!"
"Gimme the phone and I will."
-frustrated groan-
-shuffling noises-
"Stop being a bitch!"
"You're the one being a bitch, bitch!"
-more shuffling-
"Soap, Vicky's gonna grab the phone from me any second now, so I'm gonna keep this short and sweet. We have to hang out soon, and no matter what Vicky says, I have a very voluptuous ass--"
"Haha, okay."
"Okay, okay! Take it!"
"Vicky again."
"I call dibs on you once we get to the hotel."
"That can be arranged."
"Crap, gotta go. Gabe's going through my underwear."
" 'Kay. Bye."
Within half an hour or so, we pulled up in front of a Holiday Inn. The driver wasn't even done parking, but that didn't stop me from grabbing my bags and hopping off the bus.
After being stuck on a smelly bus for 6 hours, fresh air was a Godsend.
I waited outside of the hotel lobby as the huge vehicle came to a complete stop.
"Soap, you're insane," Joe said, carrying his stuff off the bus. "Couldn't you wait until the bus stopped moving?"
"I could've, but where's the fun in that?"
Andy, Patrick, Pete and Dirty filed off the bus after him, then we all headed inside.
As soon as the guys and I checked in at the front desk, I found myself thrown over someone's shoulder and heading for an elevator.
"Gaaaabe!" Vicky yelled. "I called dibs on her!"
"All's fair in love and kidnapping!" he yelled, steel doors closing as he did so.
He leaned against the wall, squishing my head against his back.
"Gabe, what the hell?! Move!" I said, while his Clandestine hoody muffled my voice. However, my plea for air sounded more like "Abe, ut dallel?! Mooo!"
"Shit, sorry," he said, stepping forward. "Forgot you were there for a second." I rolled my eyes as he set me down.
"What are you planning on doing with me?" I asked.
"Just having some spectacular-awesome-amazing fun."
"Where do we begin?"
"My room... and no we're not gonna get it on," he said, wagging his finger at me. "Your boyfriend, Jesus, wouldn't be too pleased with that, but I promise it will be the funnest afternoon ever."
"Wait, you know about me and Andy?" I asked.
"Kinda walked in on you guys all hot and heavy, but you were too busy sucking face to notice," he said chuckling.
"Did you tell--"
"Your secret's safe with me. Just remember to lock the door next time."
With a ding! the elevator doors slid open. Gabe led me to his room then quickly started grabbing "party supplies."
"Sure, this is the right room?"
"Yeah," Gabe said, nodding.
"Oh man, Panic's gonna hate us..."
I knocked on the door while Gabe cleared his throat.
"Maid service," he said in a surprisingly feminine voice.
Within seconds, Ryan opened the door. "What the--"
We barged in, covering everything in streams of pink and yellow silly string. Jon and Spencer chased Gabe around the room while I jumped onto Brendon's back and covered his eyes.
"Soaaaaaap!" he groaned, spinning around. I have no idea what possessed him to do that, but I guess he thought I'd get off his back if he did.
"Yes, Brendon?" I innocently asked.
"Could you get off me?"
"Mmmmm... No."
"But I'm a very fragile guy."
"That might be true, but the answer's still no."
"C'mon, If you don't, I'm gonna end up dropping you," he said, still spinning.
"I'll take that risk."
"Ughh..." he said, stopping. He wobbled as he tried to regain balance.
"Fine, I'll make you a deal. If you can walk in a straight line for 5 steps, I'll leave you alone."
As he walked forward, he was surprisingly steady.
"One...Two...Three...Four...Fi-- OW!"
I had successfully walked him into a wall. Laughing, I quickly jumped off his back and pointed my can of silly string at him. He was still somewhat disoriented, so it wasn't too hard to dodge his grabs.
"COBRA FOREVERRR!" Gabe yelled, throwing a plastic snake at Ryan's head.
After invading everyone else's rooms-- successfully prettifying them with the colors of the rainbow-- Gabe and I grabbed some beach gear and headed to the pool.
"What are you doing?" I asked, jumping around in the water. He was fiddling with something in his bag.
"Catch," he said, tossing a ping pong paddle my way.
"What exactly am I supposed to do with this?"
He got into the pool, holding the other paddle and a Jell-O cup.
"We're going to play the first ever game of Jell-O pool pong." He peeled off the plastic and slid the cherry Jell-O out of the cup. Tossing the cup aside, he threw the Jell-O straight up, then smacked it with the paddle.
Once the jiggly red substance made contact with the wood, it splattered everywhere, leaving chunks all over the place.
"Wait, lemme try," I said.
We went through a 12-pack of the cherry before coming to the conclusion that Jell-O doesn't bounce off wood.
"Maybe we should try it with the packaging on," I suggested.
I grabbed one of the cups and served it toward him. It flew through the air and with a /slap!/, made contact with Gabe's chest.
"OW!" He yelped. "Soap, you're gonna pay."
"Oh shit!" I laughed.
I tried swimming away, but Gabe was too fast. He came up from behind and dunked my head underwater.
As my head reached the surface, I gasped for air.
"Asshole!" I yelled.
"Bitch!" he retorted.
"Penis wrinkle!"
For the next few minutes, we both laughed uncontrollably.
"Soap, you're an idiot."
"And you love me for it."
We got out of the pool and gathered our stuff.
"Do you think we should clean up?" I asked, pointing to the pool, which was covered in Jell-O chunks.
"Nah," he said, shaking his head. "If anything, we can blame it on Pete and Dirty."
i love hearing from you guys.

Hans Rosling on population growth and climate change
He's been called the Jedi master of data visualisation, dubbed a statistics guru and introduced as the man in whose hands data sings. When it comes to celebrity statisticians, Hans Rosling is firmly on the A-list.
The problem is, the market for intelligence is now largely about providing information that makes decision makers feel better, rather than bringing true insights about risk and opportunity. Our future is now being planned by people who seem to put their emotional comfort ahead of making decisions based on real — and often uncomfortable — information. Perhaps one day, the discipline of real intelligence will return triumphantly to the world's executive suites. Until then, high-priced providers of "strategic intelligence" are only making it harder for their clients — for all of us — to adapt by shielding them from painful truths.
The move to lateral power (Jeremy Rifkin)
Jeremy Rifkin talks about this important observation in his new book "The Third Industrial Revolution" and in this New Statesmen piece excerpted below. The meme of 'lateral power' is a key topic in my new, upcoming book ("From Ego to Eco" - still very much in-progress) and is an important piece of t he puzzle, going forward. How can we truly change and address the issues that are crucial to our future success… or rather, survival:) ?
One answer will certainly include the switch to more lateral and side-by-side power as has been exemplified with the Internet: peer to peer, decentral, networked, real-time. More on this very soon. Comments would be very much appreciated.
"We take internet technology and transform the power grid of the world into an
energy internet. So when millions of us are producing our own green energy on site, storing it in hydrogen, our energy internet will allow us to sell and share any extra. We become our own energy producers. We then collaborate and share that energy in the same way as we share information on social media spaces on the internet.
Do you see this vision becoming a reality?
Young people now favour lateral and side-by-side power. That's the new politics, and it's favourable to a third industrial revolution. [They] grew up empowered on the internet to create its own information and share it freely. They now need to create their own green energy that they share in vast continental spaces…"

How 1-Minute Intervals Can Improve Your Health - Gretchen Reynolds via NYTimes.com
Researchers at McMasters University have discovered that a very different approach to physical conditioning can be as effective as conventional techniques. A ' low volume' version of High-Intensity Interval Training — that requires only 20 minutes workout, multiple times per week — can be nearly as effective in conditioning:
Gretchen Reynolds via NYTimes.com
This modified routine involved one minute of strenuous effort, at about 90 percent of a person's maximum heart rate (which most of us can estimate, very roughly, by subtracting our age from 220), followed by one minute of easy recovery. The effort and recovery are repeated 10 times, for a total of 20 minutes.
This could be a tremendous breakthrough, since so many people put off exercise due to time constraints. It is also another example of new research overturning conventional — and incorrect — wisdom: in this case, the idea that the duration of exercise is strongly correlated with its benefits.
He also reports that standard climate-change mitigation tools – efficiency measures, renewable energy standards and carbon markets – are likely to drive up costs for those with the fewest resources. "Any increase in the price of carbon will bear most heavily on low-income" households, Dr. Gough writes, reflecting a "contradiction between environmental sustainability and social justice goals."
He recommends personal carbon allowances as a first step toward addressing the problem. As unusual as the idea sounds, the British government considered the policy quite seriously in 2006. David Milliband, then environment secretary, led the initiative, announcing the need for "cumulative consistent radicalism" in the face of climate change. Two years later, the Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs scrapped the plan as "an idea ahead of its time."

Update 3:30 p.m.: If Tuesday's hearing was any indication, Gov. Sonny Perdue's choice to become the state's first transportation planning director should have little trouble getting confirmed by the House Transportation Committee next week.
Todd Long, a veteran civil engineer with years of service at the Department of Transportation, encountered little in the way of opposition Tuesday at a confirmation hearing before a special transportation subcommittee. After more than three hours of questioning, the subcommittee unanimously voted to send Long's nomination to the full committee.
"We look forward to seeing you then for more fun and frivolity," subcommittee chairman Rep. Ed Rynders (R-Albany) joked after the voice vote. The full committee will meet Aug. 19.
Long, a Georgia Tech grad, is Perdue's choice to lead the state's road planning efforts, via a position created by the transportation reform bill approved this past legislative session. That bill also gave the House transportation committee the power to approve the governor's nomination.
If confirmed, Long will work for the governor, but have to navigate the sometimes conflicting interests of Perdue, legislative leadership and the state Department of Transportation board.
Long said Tuesday he would rely on the "checks and balances" built into the new system through a system of "engaged discussion."
If there were spots of disagreement between Long and the subcommittee, it often focused on the split of state transportation dollars between metro Atlanta and rural parts of the state. Rep. David Lucas (D-Macon) said it appears to him rural Georgia often gets the short end of the funding stick.
"If you look at the numbers, Atlanta has not gotten all the money," Long said. "Listen, I'm bottom line. I don't want to create two Georgias. I want to do transportation planning for Georgia. Not for Atlanta and for rural Georgia.
Update 10:30 a.m.: Downstate lawmakers are questioning Todd Long, the governor's choice to be the state's new transportation planner, about balancing the needs of metro Atlanta with those of rural Georgia.
Rep. David Lucas (D-Macon) said he's concerned that rural Georgia does not get the attention it deserves and that metro Atlanta gets more than its share.
But Long challenged that position.
"You feel Atlanta gets all the money," he said. "If you look at the numbers, Atlanta has not gotten all the money. Listen, I'm bottom line. I don't want to create two Georgias. I want to do transportation planning for Georgia, not for Atlanta and rural Georgia."
Update 10:16 a.m.: Facing questions now from members of this special transportation subcommittee, Todd Long just addressed the one highway issue near and dear to metro Atlantans' hearts.
In response to a question from Rep. Jeff May (R-Monroe), Long said to "move the needle on transportation in metro Atlanta, you do have to spend some major money."
Tunnels, he said, could be one possibility. But any time you start trying to improve traffic through the heart of the city, the dollars ring up fast.
"Doubling down on your investment is the only way to move the needle big time," Long said.
Original post: Todd Long, the veteran Department of Transportation engineer, is giving his opening statement right now to a House Transportation subcommittee charged with considering his nomination to be the state's first transportation planner.
If you'd like to watch, go to this site and click on the "stand alone player" link to the right.
Long is Gov. Sonny Perdue's choice to fill the new powerful position that was created through the transportation reform bill adopted by the Legislature this past session.
It is an unusual situation. The Senate, not the House, has traditionally been the legislative body that affirms or denies gubernatorial appointments. But as part of the negotiations that led to the overhaul of the DOT, the House gained this important role.
Whether this subcommittee, chaired by Rep. Ed Rynders (R-Albany) offers pointed questions for Long remains to be seen. But the eight members of the subcommittee here today are listening intently.
"It is a chance of a lifetime," Long said.
August 11th, 2009
9:39 am
Good Luck Todd. If the House and Senate Members are smart they will move swiftly in this confirmation and make this transition a smooth and flawless operation. The GDOT and The state of Georgia need strong Leadership and Guidance.

Tigers relief pitcher Al Alburquerque angered some Oakland A's by kissing the baseball after inducing a ground out during Game 2 of the ALDS on Sunday.Alburquerque relieved Phil Coke in the 9th and got A's slugger Yoenis Cespedes to ground out with men on first and third to end the inning. After the ball was hit back to him, he took a few steps toward first before kissing the ball. He then gave an underhand toss to first baseman Prince Fielder for the inning-ending out. Some A's apparently viewed Alburquerque's actions as disrespectful. "It did get under my skin," outfielder Josh Reddick said, according to Casey Pratt. "We didn't appreciate that. I thought it was immature and not very professional. You don't do that on the field. Save it for the dugout.""He must not believe in baseball gods. Baseball gods take care of that stuff," said A's DH Jonny Gomes, per Bob Nightengale. Alburquerque said after the game that it was just a spur-of-the moment reaction."It's the emotions of

I actually came down to the comments to post this, glad someone else covered it. It's not really necessary in this particular case, but a) it's handy to have the "/cast [@mouseover,help][]" (or whatever - my actual selector is "[@mouseover,help][help][@focus,help][]" because I usually want to fall back to my focus after my target) in your clipboard for easy pasting if you're making a bunch of these, and because if your macros get more complicated you'll run into the character limit.
Good catch!

As I mentioned in a few other posts, I spent the week before last in Florida with my family. My family has a pet that I think the most hilarious dog ever: a massive, 130-pound, year-and-half old Greater Swiss Mountain Dog named Troy. Troy weighs as much as many grown women, and when he stands on his back legs, he is as tall as many as well. Despite all that, he thinks he's a lap dog. If I'm sitting on the ground, he'll come up and sit his entire body on top of me and bark until I pet him. For this reason, sometimes I think of how hilarious it would be to have a pet carrier large enough for a dog like Troy from a luxury house like Louis Vuitton.
Clearly this will not happen for Troy, but for the smaller, more portable dogs, Louis Vuitton has always been the pet carrier of choice. (more…)

366 Million people worldwide have diabetes (WHO 2011) and the International Diabetes Federation expects this to soar to 552 Million by 2030 (equating to three new cases every 10 seconds!).
In Australia, one in every twelve adults has diabetes and it is becoming increasingly common. The number of Australian's with diabetes has increased three‐fold over the last 20 years and it is expected that there will be more than 2 million Australians with diabetes by 20201.
Diabetes is largely a preventable disease impacted by lifestyle. If you are obese, you are four times more likely to develop type 2 diabetes than someone within the healthy weight range2. Much of the Australian community and workforce are inadvertently leading lifestyles which put them at significant risk of developing preventable diabetes.

"This is such an adorable invitation and can be used for either gender. (I also checked with a local cake decorator and it will work well on a cake for the shower.) The colors are vibrant and fun and the animals are simple and cute. I can't wait to send them out!"
"I was browsing through many sites for my baby shower invitations when I came across Tiny Prints. The invitations were delivered quickly and with ease. The prices are very reasonable especially in comparison to local vendors. The layouts are fun and easy to customize. I would recommend Tiny Prints to anyone!"
"This baby shower invitation was for my cousin who is having a little boy and decorating the nursery in a forest animal theme. So when I saw this card I was thrilled - - it was perfect - - so nice to see a baby shower invitation in a style other than the traditional pink or blue. I love Ann Kelle's work."
"I loved everything about these cards, great design, easy-to-edit and quality product. I received nothing but compliments from all my guests."
"Hosting a gender neutral baby shower, I was please with this card. It was very cute, friendly and a big hit with my family and friends."

DANVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) -- Danville police are now releasing new evidence against the preacher accused of three murders.
Kenneth Keith is charged with killing the owners of a Danville gold shop as well as a customer last month.
According to an affidavit obtained by the Advocate Messenger newspaper, police searched a different pawnshop in Somerset that Keith owns.
Inside, they found two shell casings.
Police said one had been fired from the same gun that was used in the murders.
Investigators haven't said if they've recovered the murder weapon, but they believe it was a Ruger 22-caliber pistol.
Keith is being held without bond in the Boyle County Detention Center.
His next court appearance is November 5.

Hi, I'm Jaden, a professional recipe developer, food columnist and food photographer specializing in fast, fresh and easy recipes for the home cook. Most of my recipes are modern Asian! About meFast, fresh & easy recipes for the home cook.
Friday, October 10, 2008
I'm currently in Mexico at the beautiful ClubMed Ixtapa resort with my good friend, Diane of WhiteOnRiceCouple and my brother. It would be silly to call this a "work trip," since we've done more relaxing, napping, eating and drinking than actually working, but I guess that's the whole point of ClubMed, right? They're hosting us for a wonderful Food and Wine festival and I'll be posting more when I return. In the meantime, enjoy this recipe for Grilled Fish Tacos with Roasted Corn and Pepitas.
All my friends from "not-Florida" and are gushing about their cozy Fall dishes, how it's time to break out the dutch oven and that finally, they can start wearing boots without looking like a summer fashion faux-pas. And I'm just here loungin' in my swimsuit, sipping iced tea, toes dangling a $3 flip-flop and beaming from ear to ear, gently shaking my head.
Don't get me wrong, I love long braises and warming stews, but Fall is just starting to breeze in and it's still too damn hot to turn my kitchen into a sauna. Fall is finally grilling time. Oh, sure, we grill plenty during the summer, but pity the poor person with grilling duty outside in the middle of the sweltering, suffocating summer heat, which usually is my husband. It's worse especially when we have a dinner party and I have to hand him his sunglasses, hat, sunscreen and a mountainous platter of foods to be grilled.
I get the glare. He heads outside.
And then we air-conditioned folks feel all guilty for leaving the lone man outside (but not guilty enough to join him), huddle right in front of the patio sliding glass door and give him the occasional smile-nod and thumbs up to make him feel like he's still part of the party.
Fall is time when that dinner party heads outside, guests hover around the smoking grill, husbands gets the congratulatory slaps on the back, beers are passed around and all is well and dandy. That is…until I am forced back inside the very lonely kitchen to finish off a dish on the stovetop that couldn't be grilled and to assemble that salad last minute so it can be served chilled.
My husband strolls towards the glass door, entourage behind him, raises his drink towards me and smirks.
Buy firm fleshed fish at leat 3/4″ thick, otherwise the fish will come apart on the grill. If using thinner fillets, cook the fish in a frying pan. You can still stay outdoors – just use your frying pan directly on the grill grates. To prevent the fish from sticking to the grill grates, make sure your grates get a good scrubbing. You can also pour a little oil on a wad of paper towels and wipe on the grates. The fish will be coated in some olive oil to also prevent sticking. This recipe was inspired by Jim of The Lucky Pelican in Lakewood Ranch, where I had the best fish tacos outside of San Diego.
Recyclable plates made of pressed fallen leaves from Verterra. These biodegradable plates are so cool – they are oven, microwave and dishwasher safe. Time.com has a slideshow on how they are made.
1 1/2 pounds firm fleshed fish fillet, 3/4 inch thick (I like grouper or mahi-mahi)
3/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon paprika
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 ear corn, shucked
1 large tomato, 1/4″ dice
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon finely chopped cilantro
8 corn tortillas
1/2 cabbage, shredded
2 limes, cut into wedges
1/4 cup pepitas or roasted pumpkin seeds
For the sauce (stir together)
1 cup light sour cream
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon ancho chili powder (substitute with regular chili powder)
Preheat your outdoor grill. Cut the fish into 8 thick strips, about 1″ wide x 4″. You'll be using 1 fish fillet per taco, 2 tacos per person. On a plate or bowl, toss the fish with the garlic salt, paprika and olive oil. Brush a bit of the oil onto the corn on the cob. Grill the corn on the grill over direct heat, rotating a few times.
Three minutes after starting the corn, it's time to grill the fish for 2-4 minutes each side, depending on thickness of the fish. During the last 2 minutes of grilling, throw the corn tortillas on the grill, flipping halfway. The corn, fish and tortillas should be ready around the same time.
Use a serrated knife to cut the kernals off the cob. Toss with the tomato, salt and cilantro. Assemble tacos with cabbage, a piece of fish, a spoonful of sauce, grilled corn/tomato, a squeeze of lime and a sprinkling of pepitas.
Serves 4
Wow this looks so delicious.
I read in dianes place that you all were in Mexico.
I am realy jealous.
Dude…are you working for AIG?
I love the idea of grilled fish rather than the fried variety that I always make.
Wow, your photo skills are now complete! Masterful!
Hope you're having a great time! And say hello to Diane for me. I'm totally jealous.
You're talkin' to a fish taco fanatic here. Love fish tacos of every kind, and I've tried quite a few. Haven't had one w/ roasted corn or pepitas so that's a fun and interesting twist.
Yeah, I KNEW I had reason to be jealous when you IM'd me from there yesterday! I did notice you were up early again this morning. I didn't IM then … why? BECAUSE I'M FRIGGIN' JEALOUS!!
Oh, hugs to Diane again …
I've had fish tacos once, at a Wahoo's near the La Brea Tar Pits. They were pretty darn tasty (the tacos, not the tar pits), and since Mary doesn't like fish and abhors the idea of a fish taco, I may ave to make these sometime when the kids are here. Looks great!
BTW, I hope a coconut drops out of a tree and lands in your morning Margharita. So there. :-p
Beautifully written, Jaden. I remember once visiting Miami in February, basking in the gorgeous weather and telling a local I wouldn't mind living there�if for no other reason than to never have to shovel snow again. He reminded me that snow shoveling would be replaced with year 'round lawn mowing.
I love fish and I love tacos, but I've never gotten my head around the two combined. Interestingly, though, I recently told my wife that we needed to try fish tacos. I think this may be the recipe to get me there.
Those tacos look so yummy! I crave fish tacos every once in awhile, and yours are making my mouth-water!
This may not sound an elegant enough technique to flourish in front of guests, but if you put one end of that roasted corn cob into the hole in the middle of a bundt pan that you've wedged up on top of a dish towel against one corner of your sink, you can cut the kernels off easily without the cob slipping around and all the roasted corn bits fall neatly down into the pan.
Maybe that's part of what you do back in the kitchen while your hubby and entourage are outside smirking….
I love fish tacos (but avoided them for so long. The name "fish taco" just doesn't help, lol)! These look delicious and I hope you enjoy the rest of your trip!
Wow…. These sound FAB – they'll be on the menu next week for us at home.
Have a great trip…
Ciao, Alvin
Hilarious, sounds like something that would happen in our house (the glare that is!). What an insightful post on Florida life and what Fall means here. With Matt home, every night seems to be grill night (I'm lovin' it!). These fish tacos look delish! Mexico?! So jealous! Have fun…
These look awesome, I would LOVE these! Nice and simple, too!
We love fish tacos at my house, I've never added corn though, what a great idea.
This is exactly how it is in Tucson! In summer you can be out in the early, early morning – but after that you'll get fried. It's finally time to grill again and I can't wait to hang out outside! Whoopee to grilled fish tacos!
I spent 2 weeks in California, in March, and all I wanted to eat was Fish Tacos. I just love them. Yours looks so yummy. Enjoy your trip and have a drink for me.
MMM those look amazing. It's been getting cold in michigan for a few days, then warming up for the next few. I'm not sure if I should make a pot of Guinness stew or grill some brats.
I love grilling. Nothing says "I love you" like serving food that's been kissed by fire.
I'm a 4-seasons lovin' person. I don't do too well in heat and high humidity! I have a tendency to melt(-down) like chocolate. Right now, the leaves are all turning red and falling and the kids are already gearing up for a chilly Hallowe'en night of trick-or-treating. Fall is my favourite season, but it doesn't stop me from drooling over tish tacos. Looks good any season!
Ohhh yeahhhhh … Jaden you are a legend! Whenever I hit the "argh I don't know what to do for dinner" wall, you always save me. I am SO making these this weekend. We're heading into full-on summer BBQ-ing mode here in Western Australia [we don't have spring & autumn, just winter & summer, the changeover lasts about a week] & these will be a perfect addition & break from red meat overload. Gluten free too, you goddess you! I like the DIY possibilities too, everyone makes up their own – great party idea.
those press trips are the best!! L.O.V.E. them! I'm so glad you and D are having a great time! Have lots of fun and careful with the water, for real… I've gone through that….
And wait, have you tried "sopes" there yet? If not, have someone recommend a whole in the wall that serves them. Especially the marlin ones. You'll like them a lot.
Be safe!
funny story, and oh so true! The dish looks delicious!! thanks
you deserved the break… enjoy and cheers to both of you there in mexico… i love your tacos…
Wow! Yummy! Is this the dough that is used in pizzadillas?
You had me at the photo. Can I come over for dinner?
Just when I thought I was sick of tacos! This looks delicious and I love the addition of pepitas!
Yum. Have fun in Mexico!
Oh MAN! This looks sooo amazing. I love that sauce, too … simple yet flavorful. These tacos have me hugging my computer screen. Loved the story about you and your hubby at party time … I could just picture everyone looking outside while he's grilling, and them him giving you a thumbs up when you're stuck inside! Eating one of these tacos would make all of it worth it!
A tough job, but someone has to do it!!
Great food shots as usual!
Wow Jaden, you could make Burger King look tasty! I'm glad you're using your powers for good, not evil. Our plates look almost edible here, yum. If anybody has any questions about Verterra plates, just give a holler here, I'll track comments and get back to you here.
Meanwhile, if you want to see how they went from fallen palm tree leaves to sturdy, toxin free, easy on the eye plates, mosey over here to this photo essay in Time: http://www.time.com/time/photogallery/0,29307,1846838,00.html
I can picture your poor hubs slathered in sunblock while baking in the heat of the grill and your giving him the thumbs up. You're too much!
Your poor hubby
Your fish tacos look just as good as the ones I remember in Mexico – fantastic!
Welcome home, too …. like I told Diane, "Definitely jealous reading all the tweets & now this fantastic post. Nothing like being in Mexico, on a beach with cold cocktails in hand! Beginning to see a pattern here; did you two even do anything remotely related to cooking or was this the story told to the men! Okay � time to stop reading your blog!
(kidding) .. can�t wait to hear rest of the capers!"
I always wondered if fish tacos were possible and there you have it I didn't dare try it because I never see it on Mexican restaurant menus. Looks delish!
I am so jealous, of Mexico and being able to still grill outdoors. The pumpkin seeds add a nice fall touch to the tacos.
Hi Jaden,
I already miss our afternoon taco feasts overlooking the Pacific. Thanks to you we had fish tacos off the menu.
I just posted some images from our visit to the market in Zihuatanejo on my blog at http://www.kimsunee.com.
All best,
bad enough that seafood is expensive here in germany – we are not allowed to grill on our balcony! reason being, it has to be a unanimous vote from the neighbors to allow certain things. we're not even allowed to have a satellite dish sticking out on our balcony or on the roof. oy…
back when we used to live in MD – we used to grill all the time. even when it was snowing! haha. we miss that. good times.
Hope you're having a great vacation!
you're in the sun, i'm in the rain and cold, i want that fish taco now! hope you have a great time off.
awesome delicious taco . . . . that piece of grill fish sounds really yummy . . . have a nice time in CluMex .. .. send my regards to Diane too! take care and have fun on whatever you do . . . we boys have been busy till now!
I LOVE fish tacos and these look perfect!

Clinton Denies US Paid Blood Money in Davis Case, Then Talks Personal Exit
|By: emptywheel Thursday March 17, 2011 8:15 am
Raymond Davis has been released after the families of his victims were paid blood money per Sharia law. We've really gotten to bizarro-land when a possible Blackwater contractor has been saved by Sharia law.
Express Tribune: Some US Operatives Leaving Pakistan
|By: Jim White Monday February 28, 2011 6:30 pm
The fallout from US-Pakistan tensions over the arrest of CIA contractor Raymond Davis for killing two Pakistanis on January 27 has continued to expand. Dawn.com reported on Friday on the number of US personnel in Pakistan believed to have diplomatic immunity, and on the same day, an American was arrested for overstaying his visa in Pakistan. Taken together, these bits of information suggest that Pakistan is carefully analyzing the data it has on potential US operatives within Pakistan and is carefully documenting their status. On Monday, the Express Tribune reported that it has received word that some suspected US spies in Pakistan have stopped their activities and some have even left the country.
It's Not the Pakistanis from Whom Papers Were Withholding Davis' CIA Affiliation
|By: emptywheel Tuesday February 22, 2011 3:40 pm
So almost all the people we'd like to keep Davis' identity secret from–the Pakistani government and the Pakistani people–already either knew or have been operating based on the assumption that he is a spy. The one exception, of course, is the Taliban or other extremists, who would no doubt like to know whom Davis was speaking to in their ranks. But to the extent they haven't already guessed those details, the Pakistani government now must be trusted to keep them secret, if they will. There's no more or less that the Taliban and Al Qaeda will learn about Davis based solely on US reporting confirming he is a spy.
In other words, had they revealed his CIA affiliation, American newspapers would not have revealed anything to the key people we're supposed to be protecting Davis' identity from; those people already knew or assumed it.
Raymond Davis' Work "with" the CIA
|By: emptywheel Monday February 21, 2011 5:45 pm
After the Guardian confirmed for the Anglo-American world what the rest of the world had already concluded–that Raymond Davis is some kind of spook–the government gave the American outlets that have been sitting on this knowledge the go-ahead to publish it.
Raymond Davis Crisis Escalates: US-Pak Diplomatic Freeze, Three Americans Can't Leave
|By: Jim White Tuesday February 8, 2011 7:00 am
The crisis sparked by US "consular employee" Raymond Davis shooting and killing two Pakistani citizens in Lahore on January 27 heightened on Monday, when it was revealed that his victims were part of Pakistan's "security establishment", that a second Congressional delegation had intervened with the Prime Minister on Davis' behalf and that the widow of one of the victims had committed suicide. Developments in the case continue at breakneck pace, with the story once again breaking into the Washington Post for Tuesday, where we learn that the US "has suspended all high-level dialogue with Pakistan" over the incident. Dawn fills in more detail on that suspension, noting that Pakistan's President Asif Ali Zardari had been scheduled to visit Washington next month, but that trip now appears endangered. Further, we learn that Pakistan has added three more consular employees to the exit control list, preventing their departure from Pakistan. The unidentified employees are believed to have been in the car that rushed to Davis' defense after the shooting, hitting and killing a third Pakistani who was on a motorcycle.
Raymond Davis Update: Victims Worked for Pakistan Intel, Second House Junket, Widow Suicide
|By: Jim White Monday February 7, 2011 8:50 am
When we last looked in on the ongoing saga of Raymond Davis in Pakistan, we saw that Congressman Darrell Issa was there, meeting with the President and the Prime Minister, arguing for release of Davis after he shot dead two Pakistanis on the streets of Lahore, with a third Pakistani killed by a US consular vehicle rushing to the scene in the aftermath of the shootings. Now, despite earlier US claims that Davis' victims were thieves trying to hold him up at gunpoint, a report has surfaced in the Pakistani press that Davis' victims were actually intelligence operatives for Pakistan's government and that they had found Davis' actions to be "detrimental to our national security." In further developments, a second Congressional delegation met with Prime Minister Gilani, threatening US military funding to Pakistan if Davis is not released quickly and the widow of one of the victims has committed suicide because she believed that Davis would be released without being tried in Pakistan.

On April 11, 2010, private US military contractor DynCorp threw a party at its US-taxpayer funded Kunduz Regional Training Center where its employees train Afghan police. DynCorp's employees allegedly took drugs and paid young "dancing boys" to entertain them.
Why Is Darrell Issa in Pakistan Asking President, PM for Release of Raymond Davis?
|By: Jim White Tuesday February 1, 2011 9:30 am
We learn from Dawn.com Tuesday that Raymond Davis, a US "consular employee" who killed two men on Thursday in Lahore, has been placed on the exit control list, barring his exit from Pakistan. Remarkably, Representative Darrell Issa led a small Congressional delegation that met on Tuesday with Pakistani President Asif Ali Zadari and Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani, seeking release of Davis, according to Pakistan's Online International News Network. Those meetings came a day after State Department spokesman Philip Crowley declared that as a consular employee, Davis has full diplomatic immunity.

This is one of the most important pieces of advice I can give someone.
DON'T GIVE UP!!!! I mean it.
I know it's easy to say I am to busy, I can't do this, I'm sick, the kids are sick and a million other excuses out there. Don't do it. Once you give up it's hard to get back into it and you lose your readers and your momentum to keep plugging at it.
There are plenty of bloggers out there that are doing great. You can too. You just have to work at it and in the beginning it is really hard. You don't know much. Your not sure of yourself. What do you write about. Will people like you and a million other things go on.
Take your time and you will blossom and so will your blog. Trust me I know. I am not the biggest blogger out there. I probably never will be. But I do know I love it and it's fun and I do make a little money at it and it helps me. It makes me feel like I am contributing to my family and helping people. At least I hope I am. I can't even describe how great I feel when someone tells me they like my blog or send me an email. It makes me feel like in the end it's worth it.
I know it's hard and frustrating and discouraging sometimes. But don't give up.

1. There are still six wins on the schedule. To enumerate: Two against Tampa Bay, one more against Carolina, home victories over Washington and Buffalo and a road victory over the Jets. That would make 10, and 10 generally gets you into the playoffs. And the Philadelphia game here — maybe you've heard some discussion about it — on Dec. 6 is a tossup. That would make 11, which would make the Falcons a postseason lock.
2. There's room for growth everywhere. This is a polite way of saying the Falcons aren't tearing it up in any single category. They're 19th in the NFL in total offense, and they should be in the top 10. They're 25th in total defense, which is one spot down from last season, which was to be expected with the changes made on D. Given the losses of Peria Jerry and Brian Williams, it will be hard for this defense to improve much this season. But the offense should have some breakout games in it, which would give the Falcons a puncher's chance against anybody.
3. Jason

Dealing with Aggression in the Classroom
Tip Sheet No . 23
from the CTL workshop:
October 10, 1996
Horace Johnson, Howard Bailey, Richard Greer
1. It is better to report problem behavior and ask for help rather than try to handle it ourselves. Be more preventive or proactive instead of reactive. If you have a student who is a "pain" or a possibly violent student, don't wait until it turns serious.
2. Call Public Safety for violence involving personal injury or threatening; call
the Dean of Student Life for less dangerous behavior.
3. Keep the following phone numbers available for necessary intervention. These offices communicate with each other so the process is not politicized. Counseling Services Center 3159; Student Life 2791; Public Safety 2548
4. There is more violence at the secondary education level. We need to use that as a predictor for later actions.
5. Violence is anxiety--the violent person is scared and anxious. If we can reduce the levels of anxiety, maybe we can reduce the violence. There are different degrees of violence.
6. Clarity (or control of the situation), caring (or respect) and courtesy reduces the incidence of anxiety & frustration, in turn reducing the chance of aggressive behavior.
7. We need to acknowledge the feeling but let the person know the behavior is unacceptable.
8. Speak slowly, quietly and confidently if a student is being hostile or aggressive to prevent the situation from turning violent.
9. "Ask for small, specific favors, such as asking the person to move to a quieter area."
10. Do not invade the individual's personal space. Keep about 3 to 6 feet between you and the individual. [The last two tips are from a handout available at the CTL.]

NCC MERP 15 Year Anniversary Report
Use of Medication Error Rates to Compare Health Care Organizations is of No Value
The use of medication error rates to compare health care organizations is not recommended for the following reasons:
The National Coordinating Council for Medication Error Reporting and Prevention believes there is no acceptable incidence rate for medication errors. Use of medication error rates to compare health care organizations is of no value. The goal of every health care organization should be to continually improve systems to prevent harm to patients due to medication errors. Health care organizations should monitor actual and potential medication errors that occur within their organization, and investigate the root cause of errors with the goal of identifying ways to improve the medication use system to prevent future errors, and potential patient harm. The value of medication error reports and other data gathering strategies is to provide the information that allows an organization to identify weaknesses in its medication use system and to apply lessons learned to improve the system. The sheer number of error reports is less important than the quality of the information collected in the reports, the health care organization's analysis of the information, and its actions to improve the system to prevent harm to patients.
