Kate Moss, Bradley Cooper, Stephen Fry… which celebrity hasn't

has become the hottest table in town and an absolute mustvisit
- whether you fancy rubbing shoulders with the famous or
just want to feel at the centre of things (if only for one evening).
The man behind all this breathless excitement is New
York-based hotelier and developer André Balazs, although
Chiltern Firehouse is far from being the rst triumph he's
pulled o : Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles and The Mercer in
Manhattan have long been A-list hangouts. His rst European
outing occupies a Grade II-listed building that once housed the
Chiltern Street re station, now a 26-suite boutique hotel. It's an
address with fabulous bone-structure built in - extant features
such as plain tiling and the old re-station doors lining one wall
balance chintzier, more hotel-ish details such as twee carpets.

2 Ultra Calcium D3
What is Ultra Calcium D3?
Ultra Calcium D3 is a well-balanced mix of several salts of calcium that are gentle to the GI tract and that do not negatively affect your GI chemistry.
How does Ultra Calcium D3 help thyroid patients?
Thyroid patients may become at risk of having bone loss, osteopenia, and osteoporosis. The risk is even greater in menopausal women. Many thyroid patients do not receive adequate dietary calcium from foods, especially those who need to follow a low fat diet, or are intolerant to dairy. Calcium is not only important for bone health but is also helpful for many bodily functions. In fact, insufficient calcium intake has been associated with weight issues and calcium supplementation facilitates weight loss in people who follow a weight loss program.
Package content:
- 2 bottles of Ultra Calcium D3

A gloomy day with warm light.
I've got some good friends in NYC & Brooklyn who have a band.
Their band is called Pacific Theater and they on on Whaleheart. I'm close to the cause as I did Whaleheart's logo and have done some art for pacific Theater. So I know them pretty so good.
But I really know the bassist cause he's a Southerner. He is from Atlanta and was in a band years ago with my best friend and best man from Alabama. They both had the name Daniel and they were in the band with two other guys named Daniel. I kid you not. Both the guys in the pictures are Daniel. And I like they didn't call themselves The Daniels.
Well, at any rate, Pacific Theater just put out a new album called Warm Light and you can listen to the whole thing now on Soundcloud.
And on a gloomy day like today in Boston, there's nothing like some new music to make the time pass.

by Lisa Moore
A beautiful poetic novel
I absolutely loved this book. It is the story of a woman, told in flashes, before and after the death of her husband in the sinking of the Ocean Ranger oil rig off the coast of Newfoundland. The book is beautifully-written and poetic. I expected it to be somewhat depressing, based on the topic, and was surprised to find that it was actually quite uplifting. The slow-moving tides of grief and life and carrying on.
So very, very.
Moore creates the perfect mood to flush out the story of loss after tragedy. I was struck by her language, it was so "very, very." (Loved that!)
February by Lisa Moore
Elegant and eloquent! Moore handles this topic with great sensitivity, balancing the line between love and loss to perfection. This is a book that should be read slowly, so that the full impact of the emotions of the fully crafted characters can be understood.
This is a great book for discussion, and will be enjoyed by book clubs; as well as anyone interested in gaining an understanding of how we move on from the most horrific of tragedies.
February by Lisa Moore
Excellent book. Simple, poignant story of real life, told with truth and simplicity - wonderful insight into a woman's life. Would recommend highly.

In 1982, the oil rig Ocean Ranger sank off the coast of Newfoundland during a Valentine's Day storm. All eighty-four men aboard died. February is the story of Helen O'Mara, one of those left behind when her husband, Cal, drowns on the rig. It begins in the present-day, more than twenty-five years later, but spirals back again and again to the "February" that persists in Helen's mind and heart.
Writing at the peak of her form, her steadfast refusal to sentimentalize coupled with an almost shocking ability to render the precise details of her characters' physical and emotional worlds, Lisa Moore gives us her strongest work yet. Here is a novel about complex love and cauterizing grief, about past and present and how memory knits them together, about a fiercely close community and its universal struggles, and finally about our need to imagine a future, no matter how fragile, before we truly come home. This is a profound, gorgeous, heart-stopping work from one of our best writers.close this panel

AMHERST, MA – The top-seeded Amherst College women's hockey team opened up the 2010 NESCAC Championship this afternoon against No. 8 seed Colby College at Orr Rink. The Lord Jeffs avenged their only conference loss of the season in the quarterfinal round game, earning the right to host next weekend's semifinals and final with a record-setting 10-1 win over the Mules.
With the result, Amherst will host the lowest remaining seed after the conclusion of this afternoon's other three quarterfinal games. Colby's season comes to an end with the loss, finishing the year with a 3-17-5 (1-12-3 NESCAC) record.
Amherst had the first two scoring chances of the game, coming from leading goal-scorer Courtney Hanlon (Fullerton, CA) and Randi Zukas (Glen Head, NY). Six and half minutes into the first period, Hanlon broke in alone from the blue line, and after slowing to let a Mule defender fly by, lifted a wrist shot that was saved by Colby goaltender Loni Pisani (Kanata, Ontario). With just under 11 minutes remaining, a Zukas slap shot from the point just seconds into Amherst's first power play of the game hit the crossbar.
Seconds after the Colby power play expired, Amherst senior tri-captain Kate Dennett (Highlands Ranch, CO) made her way through the Colby defense and pulled a snap shot just wide of Pisani's left post. With 6:55 remaining in the first period, Amherst went on the power play once again. Seven seconds into the 5-on-4, Geneva Lloyd (Calgary, Alberta) scored on a slap shot from the right point off an assist from Zukas and Hanlon.
At the end of the first period, Amherst held just a 1-0 lead on the scoreboard but had an 18-2 edge in shots on goal. Colby started the second period on the power play, but shortly after Amherst killed off the penalty senior Michelle McGann (New Berlin, WI) scored her eighth goal of the season for the eventual game-winner on a redirection effort in front of Pisani. The assists on Amherst's second goal went to Josie Fisher (Norwich, VT) and Emily Vitale (Cheshire, CT).
Amherst extended its lead to 3-0 as Stephanie Clegg (Woburn, MA) finished off a goal on assists from Hanlon and Dennett. The score was Clegg's eighth of the season, and came at the 7:08 mark of the second period. Minutes later, the Lord Jeff advantage grew to 4-0 as Fisher broke in all alone on Pisani. Fisher went in one-on-one with Pisani without another skater even past the blue line, and put a few quick moves on the Mule goaltender before sliding a shot five-hole for the score. Less than two minutes later, Hanlon lifted a rebound into the top of Pisani's net to put Amherst on top, 5-0. Dennett grabbed one of the assists on the score, which marked her 100th career point for the Lord Jeffs.
Following Hanlon's score, Colby called a timeout and head coach David Vendetti rallied the Mules. Just 19 seconds after play re-started, Colby's Stephanie Scarpato grabbed one back from Amherst and ended goalie Caroline Hu's (Cerritos, CA) bid for a shutout. Amherst refused to let the Mules back into the game and responded with its sixth goal on a great redirection by Ellen Swiontkowski (Minnetonka, MN) just half a minute later.
With 5:35 remaining in the second, Vitale scored Amherst's sixth goal of the period, extending the Lord Jeff advantage to 7-1. Vitale's score came from a hard angle after she had fallen to the ice and Pisani was caught off her line. In the final two and a half minutes of the stanza, Amherst added another two scores. Amherst's seventh and eighth goals of the period came from Braidie Campbell (Surrey, BC) and rookie Megan Doyen (Ortonville, MI) and sent the Jeffs into the second intermission leading 9-1.
The eight-goal second period broke the previous NESCAC Women's Hockey Championship record for most goals in a period by three scores, and with one period to play Amherst had already tied the record for most goals in a tournament game. With 18:31 remaining in the third, Amherst took a 10-1 lead on another score by Campbell off assists by Fisher and Kirsten Dier (Appleton, WI). With Campbell's second goal of the day, Amherst had broken every single-game tournament scoring mark in conference history.
The game finished with a final score of 10-1, as Amherst punched its ticket for next Saturday's semifinals. Hu finished the night with 10 saves before giving way to Sinead Murphy (Rochester, MN), who made three stops in the third period. Pisani made 30 saves in the loss.
Dennett became only the fifth player in program history to record 100 points, as she now has 40 goals and 60 assists for the Lord Jeffs.

After a sweet girl named Lizzy finds a seemingly lost cellphone in the donations her church is collecting, she makes the fateful mistake of seeing if the phone is unlocked, taking on more than a mere message meant for the original owner of that phone.
Lizzy has mistakenly been Bimbo Bombed, and the good girl may go forever bad unless she can somehow find a way out of this life and mind altering punishment she never deserved.
On a cheery sunny summer morning, sweet wholesome church girl Lizzy is about to discover that sometimes falling into sinfully bad ways is not a decision she gets to resist making.
There's few girls like Lizzy, always one of the first to arrive at church events, just like that fateful morning she shows up to help with donations for an upcoming church fundraising sale. She's happy to help sort the incoming donations as the youth minister Pastor Quinton works outside getting the huge truck unloaded with the help of two of the older boys, Zack and Ben.
But when Lizzy discovers a cellphone she believes had to be mistakenly put in the donation boxes with all the other stuff, she only wants to see about finding the owner, doing another good deed for the day.
As they say no good deed goes unpunished, and for poor sweet Lizzy the punishment may forever change not only her life but everyone working around the church that day. Unlocking the phone, Lizzy is literally shocked and then fully unprepared for the message on screen, a message clearly meant for a female attorney named Cassandra.
Whoever sent this to Cassandra was not very happy at all her good deed meddling and in effect Lizzy has intercepted a Bimbo Bombing, one that will leave Lizzy forever a sinful bad girl, only capable of thinking of more and more bad things to do, unless she can get ten men off in under ten minutes.
Frightened and worried, the church janitor is the one who does his absolute best to help prevent what seems destined to happen, trying to destroy the phone before the timer counts all the way down… but just what will happen when he fails?
Is it possible a sweet wholesome virginal girl like Lizzy can truly become a whorishly bad slut of a girl, willing to do anyone and anything, only interested in being as bad as she can be forever and ever?
It's a case of mistaken identity that truly has one church girl finding infinite reasons to repent, and only seeking to further outdo her own bad behavior. Readers Choice Month leaves a very special dangerous message on a lost cellphone, a message Lizzy really shouldn't have read.
Coming next… There's only one left standing…

New Streetscape Will Transform Toole Avenue
September 1, 2011Quick, head on over to Toole Avenue where the warehouses are, park your car, and walk the two blocks from Stone to Sixth Avenue.
Do it in the next month or so, do it with a camera or video camera to capture for eternal memory the bleak, even forbidding, streetscape that runs alongside the century-old warehouses.
This is the "before" visage, one that will be quickly forgotten after an ambitious one-day streetscape transformation slated for Oct. 22 in a hands-on public tree planting event starting at 8 a.m.
Community members will help plant the trees and then the partying starts and continues throughout the day and evening. It's not just partying, but also a prime chance for the Warehouse Arts Management Organization to strongly promote the 25-year-old Warehouse Arts District, which still remains a mystery to many people.
"We have to tell our stories really well," said Michael Keith, executive director of the Downtown Tucson Partnership.
Some of the warehouses – now all privately owned after 25 years of state ownership – have been dressed up colorfully. But walking the sidewalk is quite the gauntlet with changes in surface and levels, barely a trace of shade unless you're under The Arches, and eerily dark at night.
That will all change on Oct. 22.
Like the Berlin Wall went up in a single day in August 1961, this two-block stretch of Toole Ave. is destined to be transformed into a pedestrian Art Walk on one day in October 2011.
The Downtown Tucson Partnership is leading the Art Walk project in partnership with the Warehouse Arts Management Organization.
Some 50 trees will be planted that day along those two blocks of Toole. In the days or weeks before Oct. 22, the city is expected to build a new, uniform, pedestrian-friendly sidewalk and add lighting. The city already repaved that stretch of Toole one year ago, in September 2010,
Each warehouse on that stretch is planning to install a temporary outdoor art display that day, and permanent art is also being considered for the Art Walk.
"We want to create a street so compelling you want to park your car and walk those two blocks," Keith said. "There is going to come the day when everybody who has an event will want to route it here."
That's why the "before" image is so important, to truly appreciate the revitalization of what could become the premiere event street once the Modern Streetcar puts a crimp on street events on 4th Avenue, Congress Street or Broadway.
"We're excited that it's helping to move forward the vision of the Toole Avenue Art Walk," WAMO President Liz Burden said.
Keith has championed this Art Walk for Toole Avenue for some five years, ever since he lead the charge to compile a Downtown Infrastructure Study, which identified the myriad utilities above and below the ground as well as future needs: such as an Art Walk for Toole.
"This was always nearest and dearest to my heart for its potential," Keith said. "We pitched that to everybody in the world but we could never get any traction on the idea."
Keith remained dogged on the Art Walk and, in the mean time, became executive director of the Downtown Tucson Partnership in May 2010.
Keith was able to assemble a $100,000 cash and in-kind budget to build the Art Walk, funded one-third by the city, one-third by the Partnership and one-third by the private sector. He said Providence Service Corp. will provide constructions teams, Cox Communications will provide PR and construction management, and Toole property owners Ron and Patricia Schwabe, Steve Fenton and Geoff Sheppard are contributing to the cause, too.
Some trees will go into the ground. Some trees will grow in raised planters. A few trees will be in the street median. Some will go into bump out planters between parking spaces. There will also be three brick crosswalks across Toole.
Keith envisions a gateway artwork for Toole and Sixth Avenue to boldly proclaim entry into the Warehouse Arts District.
Crews will drill holes for the trees bright and early on Oct. 22, and the community is invited to help plant trees, starting at 8 a.m.
All the work will be on the warehouse side of Toole. Across the street, Pima County in the coming year could start building the Joint Courts Complex.
"Discussions have begun with the county about landscaping on their side of the street," Keith said. "They would landscape before construction begins."

Ship Conversation Edit
Buddy: Off to the Forest of the Elves! Who do you think we'll meet there, pal?
Lyndsay: I'm willing to wager we'll meet some elves.
Buddy: Oh boy! Do you think they'll make some toys for us?
Lyndsay: Buddy, elves don't make toys all the time. It's just a stereotype.
Buddy: Neat! I wonder what type of stereos they make?
Lyndsay: ...
Plot Edit
The story begins when you, Lyndsay, and Buddy arrive on the island. You and your friends are greeted by Petal, one of the only elves left on the island. After a brief discussion and a few introductions, Petal explains that most of the animals have fled from the island,and those that remain are acting strangely, like Hopper, a resident frog (but he appears to be a boy in a frog suit). She also somehow recognizes that you are the Royal Wandolier, and pleads for your help. She advises you to consult a mystical Unicorn Statue for help. The statue tells you to prepare a broth to help Hopper recover from this spell.
Petal asks you to help her prepare the broth to get Hopper back from insanity. You must harvest special fruits in order to prepare the broth, but Leaf, another rather careless elf that resides on the island, has used up all the water used to nourish the fruit, in order to use his hot tub. You manage to bring water to the plants, and finish the broth. When she finishes the broth,you will have to do socializing to convince Hopper to drink the broth. After recovering,Hopper asks to bring his frog friends (who seem to have turned black and have red eyes) to the cleansing pond, where the frogs turn back green and look like normal frogs. Petal then asks you to consult the Unicorn Statue once again. The statue tells you that the Temple of the Woods was torn down and disrupted the Balance of Nature.
Leaf, you, and Petal then gather at the Temple of the Woods. Petal mourns about the vandalism of the temple, and then Leaf insists that he just needed wood for his hot tub. Petal is mortified that Leaf took the wood from the temple for his hot tub, and begs you to help rebuild the temple.
After building the temple, the animals have returned. But Petal is still unhappy that the unicorns still have not returned, and asks you to consult the Unicorn Statue one last time. The Unicorn Statue says to do a rock 'n' roll concert to bring the unicorns back.
Leaf decides to come in and help, since he is a rock star. After you help Leaf redesign the stage and connect the guitar to the solar panels on top of some ruins, Leaf will start the concert. After Leaf strums on the guitar a bit, does some kind of stunt move, and plays the guitar a bit more, the unicorns finally trot into the scene. Petal thanks you and the story ends.

- The animals that reside in the Forest of the Elves have names that are all puns on the names of famous rock stars. At the exception of the Unicorns, who have normal common names.
- There are three unicorns seen in Leaf's concert despite the fact that Lance and Spike are the only unicorns seen after the story of this island (Although, someone could have taken it to give to Butter).
- The music that plays while in the Forest of the Elves also plays while near the top of the Gaia Tree in MySims Agents.
- Despite the fact that Petal said all animals in the forest fled or were cursed at the start of the story, some species of fish are still seen perfectly fine in the water.
- It is strange how "Sea" Urchins are found in the Cleansing Pond considering that they should be residing in the "sea."

Prop 23: The National Economic Showdown
For past months we have been educating Californians about the intent behind California's Prop 23, the proposition that aims to reverse AB32. AB32 'ups the ante' of California's progressive energy policies by mandating CO2 limits on State entities. This law is the closest state regulation to a national energy policy that is currently in place. It was signed into law in 2006 by a Republican governor.
If the citizens of California overturn AB32 by voting for Proposition 23, it demonstrates to political and business leaders the lack of public support for energy regulation and alternative energy investment – in the most energy progressive and technologically innovative state in the Nation.
What the general public might not know is that the economic health of California depends on the continuing innovative business investments of alternative energy, green tech and other sustainability sector technologies/products/services.
If Prop 23 passes, this is all at risk. And make no mistake about it, as California goes on non-fossil fuel energy innovation, so will go the nation.
Learn more about Proposition 23 and support efforts to defeat it.

Starsweep is a puzzle game for Japanese Arcades, Sony PlayStation, and Nintendo Game Boy by Japanese developer Axela, published in 1997.
The gameplay is similar to that of the Puzzle League series, but with a more traditional Tetris-like gameplay where pieces fall from the top of the screen.
Pieces come in three colors: red, yellow, and blue. Pieces commonly have a star on one end, or occasionally, a star on two ends. The aim of the game is to clear blocks from the playing field, by matching stars from same-coloured blocks. Players are rewarded for creating combos (which are called 'links') of piece clearances. The game ends when someone's piece level reaches the top of the playfield and is not cleared after three seconds.
The one player 'story' mode revolves around moving around an island and playing against opponents who gradually become harder, and consists of playing against 9 opponents (although this can be adjusted). There are also activities that involve the player concentrating on a specific task within a time limit. These include getting a high score, a high number of links, surviving for as long as possible, and clearing a field in a short time.

Well, what can I say about this place. A three story house with the ground floor used as a watchmakers & jewellers workshop. Sat unused and untouched for years, cram packed full of stuff.
The house had belonged to the Mallinson family for a couple of generations, the watchmakers father was a businessman in his own right and owned a shop in the city called The Great Supply Company. Evidence of this company was inside the house.
The place was a true time capsule. It was full of vintage equipment, old tools clocks, watches paperwork dating back 100 years. There was no evidence of the metric system anywhere, it must have been sat like this for years. We were lucky enough to visit during the brief period it was open.
It had appeared online only a week previous to us visiting and within a week of our visit it had been totally cleared. A lot of the stuff ended up in a nearby antiques shop but I'm betting loads was just binned.
The building is to be sold at auction.
Such a shame the place could almost have been a museum, there can't be many more places like this left now.
To think in the ten years or so I have been doing this hobby this place was sat here like this unknown to me in my home town!!
Visited with Rusty early on a Sunday morning in July last year.

If we're going to talk about service, let's talk about his opponent, Patty-Pat Kozlowski. A Google search will yield articles going back to at least 2010 that record her deep involvement in the neighborhood. She has attended countless neighborhood events that include picking up trash to scrubbing toilets.
Hohenstein, on the other hand? How has he been active in the community? I would like to more about his stance on sanctuary cities — how making Philadelphia a sanctuary city might benefit his own personal career as an immigration lawyer.

Return from the Caliphate
After the tenuous declaration of victory against ISIS, the fallout is only just beginning for child soldiers recruited for the cause, reports Kimberly Dozier.
Before the caliphate's collapse, an estimated 40,000 people left home to join up; others have been indoctrinated from home.
In Iraq, scores of Sunni boys have been charged with joining ISIS; many others have returned home, scarred inside and out after being ripped from their families and brainwashed with grandiose ideas about the rewards of martyrdom.
As the legal fallout of the caliphate's collapse takes shape, the boys now "occupy the gray zone between guilty and forgotten."

Today has been quite a day! We started at 530am for breakfast and hit the sites hard! Most groups spent the day staining decks in a retirement center. The kids were rocking it in the sun and getting it done! Definitely proud of them for their hard work! Some of the other groups put up a wall for a deck and also tore down some gutters and what not! Another dug a trench for a brick flower bed garden.
Please pray that we will trust God with the work we are doing. Pray that we will rely on Him to do the work so that those who receive it will hear Gods goodness. Pray that we will have flexibility for all that may change as we continue. Thank you!!

Rebellion in the Streets!
Exciting and frightening! People in Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, and elsewhere took to the streets to demand the replacement of the ruling regimes. It is exciting because the people no longer fear the guns of the state. The people have reinstated their sovereignty. They will no longer be dictated to.
But it is frightening also because we know from history what happened to the French, Russian, and Iranian revolutions. Around the world, the liberations from colonial rule degenerated into internal dictatorships and new oppressions.
The street rebels call for the dictators to step down. But they also need a vision of what will replace it. Otherwise, extremist supremacists, who are best organized, can become the new masters. Rulers need two tools to impose power. They need force, but they also need propaganda. There has to be some story that provides a willingness to follow by much of the population.
In the old Soviet Union, the story was state socialism, which was supposed to rationally plan the economy to serve the people. In Iran, the story is supremacist religion. In the United States, the story has been representative democracy. When many people stop believing the story, the regime's rule is finished.
A third source of support for the state consists of benefits. In the United States, Europe, and Japan, the main benefits have become retirement income and medical services. Folks support the state because otherwise, where will they get their retirement income and medical benefits? In countries around the world, folks get various subsidies. They don't realize that the costs imposed by the state far exceed the subsidies.
In Tunisia and Egypt, the people were getting few benefits from the state. In many countries, most people live at subsistence, just getting enough to survive on, while the wealth of the economy goes to the ruling class oligarchy. The regime depends on propaganda and force, but eventually the story goes stale, as it did in the old USSR. When propaganda fails, it becomes clear that the purpose of the state is only to serve the ruling class. Force alone cannot maintain the ruling class unless the rulers are willing to slaughter with no mercy, as happened in Iraq.
When all that is left is force, the regime is supported by fear. In Egypt, the propaganda was no longer effective. The Egyptian revolution of 1952, the military coup which overthrew the king, had gotten stale. The regime could not provide the people with economic benefits, since the very purpose of the state had become the enrichment of the rulers. U.S. government chiefs and others called for economic reform, but that was impossible, as it would have voided the purpose of the state to serve the landed ruling class elite.
Thus the chiefs hang on to power as long as possible. Shutting down communications is a sign of desperation, an act of futility, as commerce needs communications media. The people also recognize the shuffling of cabinet ministers as meaningless.
But the street revolutionaries should learn from the history of the French revolution. The French overthrew the monarch, and then mass democracy become mob rule and a reign of terror. The street rebels need to also learn from the Russian revolution, where a tyrant was replaced by a much worse regime that lasted for decades because they had a gripping story. Some rebels seek to impose a different type of tyranny, or they seek to copy the mass democracy that has failed and degenerated in much of the world. Mass democracy does not even work all that well in the USA, where it is ingrained in the culture.
If he were wise, here is what the government chief would do. He would declare a state of freedom. All censorship would be eliminated. All restrictions on non-harmful economic activity, gone. All taxes other than on land and pollution, eliminated. He would announce that sovereignty was hereby transferred to the people individually. The chief would organize local elections in villages and city neighborhoods, to which government power would be transferred. The chief would go down in history as heroic.
But such is a fantasy. It has never happened, because having been a tyrant, the chiefs think tyrant thoughts. And the people are not enlightened enough to demand free markets, decentralized governance, and the implementation of the universal ethic of liberty and human rights. What usually happens is that street rebellions result in violent chaos, and demagogues take over.
It is exciting that the people are boldly rejecting tyranny, but it is frightening that new tyrants with a fresher story may replace the old tyranny, rather than true liberty and democracy.

We did not mention it in our June 20 post, but the federal court opinion that found the Minnesota Sex Offender Program unconstitutional is 37 pages long. Even if it is an interesting read, the length may have surprised some: The judge, the Hon. Donovan Frank, made it clear that the findings and conclusions of law included in the opinion did not address the issues presented by the plaintiffs -- that is, it did not solve the problems MSOP has created for the men and women in the program. Determining that MSOP is unconstitutional just cleared the way for real reform.
The opinion does list more than a dozen potential remedies, but the list is just a start. The real work, Frank wrote, would be accomplished by the attorneys for the detainees and state officials during the remedies phase of the case.
Earlier this month, the parties met with Frank to discuss proposed changes to MSOP. The judge's objective is to have a full proposal, with law changes and budget considerations, ready for the 2016 legislative session. While plaintiffs' attorneys claim the state has dragged its feet complying with Frank's court order, the meeting produced a 30-page memorandum from plaintiffs detailing 18 specific program reforms. The state must submit its own proposals by Sept. 30.
Before we discuss the reforms, let's review how MSOP works -- or, for that matter, doesn't work. It's important to remember that the program is designed for individuals who have committed a sex crime, but it is not a substitute for prison or jail. And while the program serves convicted sex offenders, the Department of Corrections does not manage MSOP. The Department of Human Services does, because, ostensibly, the program's objective is to guide the offenders through a treatment program that will help them re-enter society.
We'll continue this in our next post.

Summer holidays
6 tips for making the most out of your summer
Many university courses and apprenticeships require candidates to have specific skills or experiences and the summer break can be the perfect time to get yourself prepared. Here are six tips for making the most out of your summer:
1. Summer jobs
Never underestimate the importance of part-time or full-time work. Communication, teamwork, drive and energy can all be evidenced in many jobs, whether or not the job itself is mundane.
If you haven't already, it is imperative that you put together a CV, to present all of your previous employment and experience. Most companies will ask for this when hiring. Use Unifrog's CV tool to make this process straightforward.
Start looking in May for summer jobs, because there is often a lot of competition for the best positions. Some useful websites are: Student Job, Just Student Jobs, E4S Student Jobs and GumTree. Check newspapers, social media, your local Job Centre or ads in windows of shops/restaurants.
2. Work experience
Work experience is the perfect way to get a taste of a future career, whilst also acquiring more useful material for a CV or Personal Statement. Particularly if you are applying for a degree course such as Medicine, Veterinary Sciences or Law, work experience is an essential part of your application.
Some companies, such as British Red Cross or HSBC, offer work experience schemes specifically for 16-18 year olds. However, for most placements you will need to make your own contacts by emailing companies directly with a copy of your CV, and writing a few paragraphs about yourself and why you would be interested in gaining some experience, as well as explaining what you could bring to them.
3. Volunteer
Volunteering is a really good way to mix with people outside of your school and develop your interpersonal skills. There are many websites to help find opportunities, such as Volunteering England. For local opportunities try YouthNet UK, and for international volunteering check out WorldWide Volunteering (WWV). Alternatively, National Citizenship Service, is a low cost, three-week team building and volunteer programme in the UK run by the government.
Whether overseas or on your doorstep, volunteering can be a rewarding way to meet new people and learn different skills, as well as making an excellent addition to your CV.
4. Extracurricular study
Get ready to apply to university by boosting your academic credentials over the summer. This will prepare you for your future studies as well as giving you content to discuss in your Personal Statement.
You won't have enough time to learn everything about your subject so look for a specific topic that you find interesting then conduct your own research. For example, I was interested in French cinema so I studied the work of a French director then wrote about my findings in my Personal Statement.
Look for ways to explore your subject which appeal to you. If you want to study Zoology at university and you enjoy photography, perhaps start a wildlife photography blog. Listen to podcasts, watch documentaries, attend open lectures, read books and articles: anything that you find interesting could be discussed in your Personal Statement or at a future interview.
There are free MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) available in almost every field of study, from languages to computer programming, so they are a great way to expand your knowledge outside of the curriculum. Use Unifrog's MOOCs tool to find the best courses for you.
Evaluate everything you learn and try to form your own opinions on it. Admissions tutors will be impressed by your independent research skills and curiosity for the subject.
5. Other opportunities
Exchange programmes and summer schools are a great way to work independently, away from home, surrounded by students your own age - in other words, perfect preparation for university. Here are some examples of the opportunities on offer:
- Youth exchange
- Rotary Club International: Exchanges for students 15 to 19 years old are sponsored by Rotary clubs in more than 100 countries.
- Lions Club International: Youth camp and exchange sponsored by local lions clubs.
- Summer schools
- Sutton Trust: foundation which improves social mobility in the UK through evidence-based programmes, such as UK summer schools and USA programmes.
6. Don't forget - record it
Record all your activities, paid or voluntary, in or out of school. Use Unifrog's Activities tool to make the recording process straightforward. Having a detailed record makes for much easier CV writing and university application form filling.
Unifrog Insights monthly email
Progression-related teaching materials, and insight from the Unifrog platform, emailed to you once a month.

INDIA has incessantly plotted to destabilise Pakistan but Narendra Modi's regime has gone the extra mile in its machinations against Pakistan. It was Modi's election manifesto to annex Indian Occupied Kashmir (IOK) into India, subjugate Pakistan and force the Indian Muslims to accept Hindu supremacy. Modi's government went into top gear directly after his oath taking ceremony to fulfil each item on his heinous agenda. IOK received special treatment to bring the Kashmiri youth to its knees and give up its struggle for independence.
Modi's nefarious plan in Kashmir went awry with the brutal assassination of popular Kashmiri youth leader Burhan Wani on July 08, 2016. Instead of being cowed down, Kashmiri youth came out in droves to protest Wani's murder. Indian armed forces turned the protest rallies into a blood bath; slaughtering hundreds while blinding thousands by firing pellets into their eyes and faces. The protest rallies snowballed into an unstoppable freedom movement.
To divert international attention from its atrocities in IOK and further its odious plot in Pakistan, Modi's goons launched its secret service RAW's operatives in FATA, Gilgit Baltistan, Azad Jammu Kashmir, Karachi and Balochistan to sponsor terror attacks. Although RAW operatives caused serious damage in FATA and have been driven across the Durand Line as a result of Military Operation Zarb-i-Azb and Rad-ul-Fassad, yet they continue to wreak havoc in Pakistan with sporadic terror assaults from their safe havens in Afghanistan. In Balochistan, RAW executed an elaborate conspiracy to misguide Baloch youth and provoke them to launch terror attacks. The apprehension of senior RAW operative Commander Kulbhushan Jadhav from Balochistan exposed Modi's plot. Kulbhushan Jadhav confessed to hatching a monstrous plan to set fire to the strife torn province. Disgruntled Baloch youth have been recruited, trained in insurgency, armed and launched to carry out terror attacks. Kulbhoshan sang like a canary and named the ring leaders, who were apprehended before they could cause further damage.
India's latest reprehensible deed is establishing the Hind Baloch Forum with Pawan Sinha as the president of this forum while Swami Jitendranad Sarswati is the General Secretary. On June 20, 2017, the forum organised its first event as a seminar on the topic "How Indians can play a role in the freedom struggle of Balochistan" at hotel Howard Plaza Fatehabad Road, Agra, Utter Pradesh India. Notorious Pakistan bashers were invited as guest speakers on the occasion. They include Major General G D Bakhshi (Retd), who appears in various discussion programmes on Indian TV Channels, spewing venom against Pakistan and promoting the cause of Balochistan's liberation. Colonel RSN Singh (Retd), former RAW Director, who is also bitterly opposed to Pakistan; Pushpendra Kulshrestha, Bureau Chief of Aaj TV News Pakistan and Govind Sharma National General Secretary Ganga Mahasabha.
India is now openly supporting "Separate Balochistan" movement by spreading anti Pakistan propaganda on electronic, print and social media. It is perceived that India will use such forums to gain support of anti Pakistan elements, create unrest in Balochistan and project the Balochistan issue at International level to create impediments for CPEC projects. The founding of Hind Baloch Forum is tantamount to direct interference in the affairs of Pakistan but India is trampling good diplomatic norms and basic principles of sovereignty of nations and is, instead, openly supporting separatism in Baluchistan by spreading anti- Pakistan propaganda through all channels of dissemination of information, not only inside India but also abroad.
Last year during his Republic Day address to the nation, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi declared his support for the so called Independence Movement in Balochistan. It is a fact that Balochistan, despite being Pakistan's largest province and being rich in mineral resources, is the most neglected and has suffered at the hands of various federal as well as provincial governments. External forces have tried to exploit separatist elements to foment trouble. Senior RAW operatives like Kulbhushan Jadhav have admitted that their target have been Karachi and Balochistan. Karachi is the commercial and financial capital of Pakistan hence India's aim is to paralyze the trading capacity of Karachi to destabilize Pakistan.
The China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) emanates from the port of Gawadar located in Balochistan and meanders through the province with various commercial and trade centres being established to bring prosperity to the Baloch nation. Kulbhushan Jadhav shared the blueprint of how India had planned to sabotage CPEC, targeting various projects and kidnapping and murdering Chinese engineers to harass them into abandoning the mega project. It may be noted that Indian Prime Minister Modi highlighted the Indian concerns about CPEC during his visit to Beijing and told the Chinese leadership that it was "unacceptable" to him. The Indian government also summoned the Chinese envoy accredited to New Delhi to register its protest.
In order to thwart India's nefarious intentions of creating mayhem in the restive province, the Government of Pakistan has deployed a special security force to safeguard CPEC and provide security to Chinese engineers and technicians working in Balochistan. Despite the arrest of Kulbhushan Jadhav, fragment groups of RAW operatives are still at large in Balochistan, who are engaged in the detestable task of creating shock and awe through terror attacks. The Hind-Baloch Forum has been set up to gain support of anti-Pakistan elements; create unrest in Balochistan and project the Balochistan issue at international level to create impediments in way of CPEC projects and its activities need to be watched.

As Benoit Treluyer watched the rest of the LMP1 field, and a majority of those teams in LMP2 it looked as though the #7 Audi's involvement in the 6 Hours of Silverstone would be short lived. Fortunately for Treluyer, and co-drivers Andre Lotterer and Marcel Fassler the problem of finding a gear on the run towards Abbey for the first time was overcome quickly and Treluyer was able to catch the rest of the manufacturer prototypes inside of a handful of laps, before fighting through the order and staying out of trouble (just about) to open the 2015 FIA World Endurance Championship season with a win
Whether they were leading the race, or fighting for position the #7 crew had a starring role in the race. Double stinting to start the race Treluyer caught Toyota driver Sebastien Buemi napping the moment a full course caution lifted before moving to within two seconds of the leader before he handed the car to Fassler.
Treluyer's progress back towards the point had been accelerated by the retirement of Mark Webber in the #17 Porsche that had led from the drop of the green flag. Webber had leapt ahead from pole position, pulling out a comfortable margin of nearly twenty seconds during the first hour, punctuated by a first full course caution period when Paul-Loup Chatin spun the Signatech Alpine LMP2 entry into the Copse tyre wall.
It was after a second caution, called for marshals to finish repairing the barrier struck by the Frenchman's car, that Treluyer picked up third from Buemi as Marc Lieb in the #18 cut Webber's lead in half. Only a few laps later Webber was in the pits, the dominant car to that point having developed a gearbox issue.
"It was really going smoothly," said Webber, "and I had a nice run at the front of the field. Then we had a drivetrain issue. I only felt it a lap before, but I couldn't continue. It's a real shame because we were in a great position."
Only nine laps after Webber's exit Treluyer and Lieb pitted a lap apart. The proximity in strategy was soon matched on track with an exchange of positions that served as the perfect appetiser for the rest of the eight round WEC season. Fassler picked up second in the Audi, but had Neel Jani's Porsche 919 Hybrid to chase down.
Around the Silverstone Grand Prix circuit the Porsche and the R18 e-tron quattro were in stark contrast. In a sequence of moves repeated numerous times Fassler would outbrake Jani into Village and manage to take the line though the Loop and Aintree. However, once out onto the Wellington Straight the power of the Porsche pushed Jani back into the lead before both drivers called upon their brakes in preparation for Brooklands.
The battle continued after the next round of pitstops, Lotterer at the wheel of the Audi for the first time, starting driver Dumas back in the #18. On a set of tyres scrubbed in qualifying Dumas could not fight off the Audi down the straights the same way that Jani had done time and time again leaving Lotterer able to make, arguably, the race's crucial pass. At the time though the move only gave the Audi third behind the pair of Toyota TS040. Lotterer made easy work of Mike Conway in the #2 car, the team running a different strategy having, uniquely among the LMP1 leaders, pitted under both the early cautions before closing in on Anthony Davidson in the #1 car, running the same strategy as both the #7 and #18 entries, but unable to match their stint lengths.
Lotterer passed Davidson for the lead shortly before the half way mark, building up a margin over both and Romain Dumas before the Brit began the next round of pitstops. He gave way to Kazuki Nakajima but, having made the crucial passes it was left to Lotterer to deliver the race for Audi. The quicker pitstop allowed by not changing driver gave him a sizable lead of Nakajima and Lieb, back in the Porsche as the #18 team shied away from double-stinting drivers.
The fresher driver and tyres should have given Jani back the advantage but he was unable to match the pace of Lotterer. Over the course of a fine triple stint by the German he built up a lead of over a minute – importantly enough to absorb a pitstop – over the chasing Porsche. After Fassler finally heaved his teammate from the car after two-and-a-half hours at the wheel he returned to the track leading, the Porsche only a second behind. Battle was – briefly – rejoined between the two drivers who had wrestled each other for position in the first half of the race. With the Porsche a stop behind there was little immediately at stake, but neither driver was ready to cede position. Trying to fend off the Porsche Fassler blasted around an Aston Martin though Club, running all four wheels over the kerb.
The stop marked a departure for the squad, searching a strategy to give them the advantage over their rivals. Having single stinted drivers and tyres all race Jani remained in the car and the team fitted only left side tyres. It was a small tweak to the team's tactics, but it nearly paid dividends over a breathless final hour.
Fassler's wider than wide line though the final turn had not gone unnoticed, stewards handing him a stop-go penalty for gaining an advantage by running off the track. The Audi started the final hour with the undoubted advantage. Lotterer's pace had more than compensated for the time needed for the timed fuel stop the car would need to see the end of the race, but an unforeseen pit visit put more pressure on the lead margin.
The fuel stop halved the lead down to 40 seconds, but the stop-go – served a lap later – left Audi and Porsche only a dozen seconds apart with a charging Jani closing in all the while.
From twelve seconds he cut the lead to less than seven seconds before some ill-times (in Jani's eyes) traffic started to help the gap out again. At the end of 201 laps – a distance record for the 6 Hours of Silverstone – only 4.6 seconds lay between the top two with the #1 Toyota only another ten seconds behind.
The second of the Toyotas finished a lap behind with the #8 Audi ended the race four laps in arrears to the sister car having had to spend time in the garage for the team to replace the rear bodywork after minor contact with a slower car.
Team Bykolles' debut with the privateer CLM design was curtailed by several lengthy stays in the pits, including a 40 minute repair in the opening hour. Their race came to an end a little over 40 minutes early when Christian Klien pulled the #4 off the track.
G-Drive Racing dominated the LMP2 class, finishing first and second in the class with the #26 crew of Sam Bird, Roman Rusinov and Julien Canal taking victory ahead of teammates Luis Felipe Derani, Ricardo Gonzalez and Gustavo Yacaman.
The two Ligier-Nissans had dominated the class in the build up to the race but found themselves pushed back in the early laps, Nick Tandy taking the lead for KCMG. However, after leading five laps first Bird, then Derani made their way past, taking positions they would not leave for the rest of the race.
An additional pitstop late in the race pulled the two cars – inseparable so often during the Silverstone weekend – apart in the final standings the two cars finishing a lap apart.
After Tandy's early show of pace in KCMG's new Oreca coupe the car began to fell behind, slipping into the pack under the pressure of mechanical problems and penalties. In their stead third place at the end of the race was taken by Extreme Speed Motorsport's #30 HPD. However, after the race the stewards found that the floor planks on the car were too thin, excluding the car and moving the Strakka Racing combination of Danny Watts, Jonny Kane and Nick Leventis onto the final step of the podium.
Like the Audi that won the race the team, and specifically Watts, could have been forgiven for giving up hope of a strong result when the race was still within sight of the green flag. As the field streamed around Abbey for the first time Watts arrived in the gravel trap backwards at the end of an incident he was – at least immediately after the his stint – at a loss to explain.
Fortunately the car was undamaged in the off and Watts was able to rejoin the race without losing a lap. Though the remainder of the 6 hours the three drivers drove a sensible race in their first outing with the Dome S103 chassis, avoiding the incident and accident that affected many in the class to take eighth overall, the best of the British entered teams in their home event.

One of Kansas City Scott Gallagher's core values is the education of both players and coaches. To support that mission the KCSG Soccer Club will budget a set amount each year from Club fees to be available for reimbursements to coaches seeking continuing education through licensing clinics, coaching seminars or other types of coaching education approved by the Board. This does not include instructional CD's, DVD's, subscriptions, equipment or other written materials. The following guidelines have been approved by the Board and must be adhered to by coaches wishing to obtain financial reimbursement from the Club for some or all of their continuing education:
You must be in good standing with the KCSG Soccer Club as a coach, trainer, administrator or team manager.
You must fill out a Request for Education Reimbursement prior to attending such event which you are requesting a reimbursement. Your request must be approved by a majority vote of the Board of Directors to be eligible for reimbursement.
You must commit to being a carded member of the Club for at least 1 year after receiving such reimbursement.
Coaches receiving reimbursements for earning a "National C" license or higher degree, or an equivalent degree from another licensing body (i.e. NSCAA) are required to conduct 4 hours of a free Club coaching clinic open to all KCSG coaches in the seasonal year the degree is earned.
"Independent" coaches who do not pay KCSG Club fees, but are carding their team through KCSG for purposes of playing in KC Metro League are not eligible for reimbursements.
Coaches dual carding with KCSG and other local soccer clubs are not eligible for reimbursement.
New members to the Club or members coaching 2 or fewer teams are allowed to request up to $50 per year.
Members with greater than 1 year tenure with the Club and coaching 2 or more teams are allowed to request up to $100 per year.
Members with greater than 3 years tenure with the Club and coaching 4 or more teams are allowed to request up to $400 per year.
Members who are representing KCSG in an event requiring Club attendance (i.e. MYSA AGM) will have their full expenses reimbursed, provided that the approximate expense amount is approved in advance by the Board.
Directors of Coaching will be allowed $500 per year in addition to any agreed upon salary for the position.
If a coach is also employed to coach soccer for a high school, college or university then KCSG will consider 50% of such expenses as eligible for reimbursement, subject to the criteria listed above. The remaining 50% should be requested from the coach's employer.
The Board, at its discretion, may allow for greater reimbursement if in its opinion the educational reimbursement will be a general benefit to the Club and the Club has adequate funds in that budget year. The Board may also set additional requirements for the member seeking reimbursement if the amounts are in excess of the guidelines above (i.e. if the coach's teams pay a percentage of the amounts greater than the limitations above, the Board may choose to increase its reimbursement for that coach).
The KCSG Board has final authority for approval or rejection of any request for educational reimbursement.

It's hard to believe it is June 11th already. The month is flying by.
Some writers are able to craft stories in their heads and then commit them to paper or computer file. I can't really do that. I might have some general idea of where I want a scene to go, but most of the time, I just work it out while I am typing. I really don't even think about the story I'm working on except when I have that time to type. Throughout the day, I give my attention to whatever I've doing at that moment. When I do sit down to type, what comes out is almost always a surprise.

Are sessions confidential?
We consider all private sessions confidential. It is possible, however, that you will see another client upon arrival or when you depart. When taking part of group events, we can not guarantee that all parties will treat the conversation as confidential.
How many sessions will I need?
Services can be purchased as a package or on a session-by-session basis. The number of sessions varies per person. For Personal Development, you may want to consider regular sessions for a minimum of six months. Similarly, for self-care the recommendation is a series of 5 sessions. However, there is no specific requirement.
How long do sessions last?
A majority of the sessions last one hour. There are a few exceptions. Longer sessions do cost extra and are identified in advance.
Do you work with people of all ages?
We work with people age 13 and over. There are limitations, however, on the services provided to anyone under the age of 18. All services for minors must be performed with the consent of a parent/guardian. A parent/guardian will be required to be present for most sessions. We reserve the right to refuse specific services to anyone, especially to minors.
Are there people that you will not take on as a client?
We will decline a potential client's business if we feel that we are not the best fit for the client, feel the services requested are not appropriate, or believe the client would be better served by a therapist or a medical doctor. In particular, we do not take clients that have serious disorders, such as, bi-polar or schizophrenia. Clients currently in therapy or under some types of medical care may require written approval of the attending physician and/or therapist prior to the commencement of service. We reserve the right to limit services to a client or discontinue service at any time.
Do you do workshops, presentations, or group sessions?
Yes. We have regular virtual meetups held via conferencing as well as actual meetups in the Denver metro area. We also do presentations and workshops for other groups. Contact us if you are interested in having a presentation or workshop for your group. Events for specific groups will be tailored to the needs of the group.
What forms of payment do you take?
We take cash, debit cards, and most major credit cards. Checks are accepted with prior approval.
Where do I start?
You have already started by identifying the desire for some assistance in improving some aspect of your life. The next step is to contact us so we can arrange a free consultation and ensure we are the right match for your needs. From there, we will prepare a plan for your sessions based on what you want to achieve along with scheduling a time for your initial session.
Do you offer sessions remotely?
Yes. We can do most energy healing, life coaching, intuition training, and business coaching sessions remotely via video conferencing. When you contact us about a session, let us know that you would like a remote session and we will assess if we can do the specific session remotely. Past Life Regression and space healing sessions are not offered remotely.
Mind-Body Healing (Energy Healing)
How does energy healing work?
Prior to a treatment, we work with the client to formulate an intent (goal) for the treatment. During a treatment, the client relaxes so that their body and mind are open to receiving healing energy. While the client relaxes, we act as a conduit to pull unnecessary or stagnant energy out of the client's energy field and insert positive energy into the energy field. This improves physical functions of the body and can also result in emotional, mental, and spiritual healing.
How do I know if I need energy healing?
Everyone can benefit from energy treatments, whether you want to address physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual aspects of your life.
What benefits can I expect to gain from energy treatments?
Most people experience relaxation from an energy treatment, which is a benefit in itself. Energy treatments can also reduce pain, anxiety, effects from medical treatments, and much more. There is an intake process that helps identify your needs, which is also used to identify a specific intent for an energy treatment.
Past Life Regression
Can Past Life Regression be used for healing?
Yes. Matter of fact, we recommend that people who want to do past life regression have a specific issue that they want to address. The issue can be physical (e.g. an unexplained birthmark), mental, emotional, or spiritual. We have found that you will end up experiencing exactly what it is you need, which may not be related to your original goal.
How does a past life regression work?
The process we use for past life regressions is very much like a guided meditation. You are always in control and will never do anything that is against your nature. You may, however, be surprised (in a good way) by what you experience.
Are Past Life Regressions real?
Clients have amazing experiences with and responses to past life regressions. It has been shown that people sometimes report verifiable facts during regressions that they could not have known. However, most experiences will not find you in the role that is easily verified. That does not, however, take away from the experience. To learn more about Past Life Regression, we suggest reading Many Lives, Many Masters by Dr. Brian Weiss.
Life Coaching
Will you tell me how to "fix" my life?
We will work with you to explore issues and will give you tools that you can use in your life. The most effective changes to your life happen when they come from within. Therefore, we will not under any circumstance tell you the "fix." We are simply here to help you on that journey.
What is the format of personal development sessions?
Most sessions are available in person, via phone, or via video. Some limitations may apply.
Sessions begin with an intake, where we briefly discuss any information that we need for the session including any results since the last session. Then, we move into the session itself. We end with a wrap-up that summarizes key points and discuss the next session and activities to be done to prepare for the session.
What is a life coach?
A life coach is someone who facilitates your personal development by listening to you, acting as a sounding board, and providing tools and guidance. They are there to give and independent perspective as you dive deep to identify what truly inspires and drives you. A life coach often helps you set goals and create action plans, while keeping you focused and on track as you transform aspects of your life.
What is the difference between therapy and life coaching?
Life coaching should never be used for or mistaken for therapy. Life coaching is for healthy people who are not in need of therapy. The focus of therapy is on the obstacles or issues seriously affecting one's life; whereas, the focus of life coaching is on finding solutions to problems for the purpose of enabling the client to move forward towards self identified goals.
What is your coaching style?
Our coaching style is a very individualized approach that is geared to the specific needs of the client. We can work with you in a textbook style approach, an experiential approach, or a more spiritual energetic approach.
Business Coaching
Do you coach people in all sizes of business?
We focus primarily on coaching people who are starting or growing a small business. If you have a larger business, we will consider opportunities to work with you regarding leadership, team building, and related activities. However, we reserve the right to decline opportunities with larger companies if they are not aligned with our business goals.
Do you do professional/career coaching?
We can assist with career transitions, goal setting, college majors, and other area of your professional life. Although we can assist with career direction, we do not get involved in the details of a job search.
I have no idea where to start to create a business. Can you help?
Yes. We can give you guidance into a wide variety of topics that you will need to research and understand in order to create a successful business. It is important to know that we will not hand answers to you, but instead give you guidance.

Emotional Processing and Memory Evaluation in Epilepsy Patients
Brief description of study
The purpose of the study is to assess the effects of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) on memory and emotional functioning. The study will evaluate the known lateralized neurological dysfunction(Right TLE versus Left TLE) on emotional verbal and visual memory function. Study data will assess the ability of participants with known lateralized neurological dysfunction (Right TLE versus Left TLE) to differentially perceive emotional stimuli. Another component of the study will evaluate possible changes in memory function for emotionally charged material following right or left temporal lobectomy for the treatment of medically intractable epilepsy. It is expected participants with known lateralized dysfunction will exhibit differential ability to discriminate emotional charged visual and verbal material.
Detailed Study Description
Epilepsy is a relatively common neurological disorder diagnosed when individuals suffer from repeated unprovoked seizures. Estimates of prevalence rates vary, but it is generally considered to be about 1% of the U.S. population. Of the patients diagnosed with epilepsy, about 60-70 percent are diagnosed with complex-partial seizures, and of these about 30-40 percent are medication refractory. The majority of individuals with medically refractory epilepsy have seizures arising from the temporal lobe area, labeled as Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (TLE). Patients with TLE experience neurological and psychiatric comorbidity. The surgical treatment of patients with medically refractory epilepsy has become increasingly recognized as an effective treatment to reduce or eliminate seizures in selected patients. Up to 90 percent of selected participants with TLE have been seizure free for a year following temporal lobectomy. However, patients undergoing neurological surgery for medication refractory epilepsy can experience a variety of cognitive and emotional comorbid complications. These include declines in memory and language functions as well as onset of depression, anxiety, and, rarely, de novo psychosis has been reported. This study will assess the material specific memory and emotion functioning of subjects with medically refractory temporal lobe epilepsy. The incorporation of neuropsychological assessment in the pre-surgical evaluation of patients diagnosed with medically refractory epilepsy has been successful in reducing the risk of individuals experiencing catastrophic declines in memory and language functioning following neurological surgery. However, material specific memory loss remains a problematic issue in the surgical treatment for TLE. Despite 30 years of research, there remains questions about the lateralized function of mesial temporal structures. In addition, it has become increasingly recognized emotional function in patients with medically refractory epilepsy are related to quality of life and functional outcomes following temporal lobectomy. Indeed, post-surgical symptoms of depression and anxiety are significantly related to patient quality of life and, to a lesser extent, seizure freedom. Initial results suggested patients with right TLE were at greater risk for post-surgical emotional difficulties; however, more recent data question earlier observations and suggest hemisphere dominance has little affect on psychiatric outcome. There is little doubt neurological surgery for medically refractory can significantly decrease, and in many instances, eliminate seizures in patients. However, individuals are at risk for cognitive and emotional comorbidity with these medical treatments and there remains a paucity of empirical study to help guide treatment. Despite increasing empirical evaluation of emotional (psychiatric) status in individuals with medically refractory epilepsy, there is a paucity of data exploring the interaction of learning and emotion functions. The purpose of this study is to prospectively evaluate the memory functioning of individuals with medically refractory TLE for emotional material. In addition, a component of the study will evaluate if there are differences in the ability to evaluate the emotional content of stimuli. Data from participants with epilepsy will be compared to a control group of healthy volunteers. The stimuli will consist of positive and negative material. It is suspected these data will, in the future, improve the pre-surgical evaluation of individuals with medically refractory epilepsy and reduce risk of the person having a pronounced psychiatric complication following temporal lobectomy.
