Over 260 young people have been left without land after a land grab in Curuguaty, Paraguay. 37,572 people asked President Horacio Cartes to give the farming families of Curuguaty the land they demand. The world has re-acted and now President Cartes must act. He must give the families the land they need to sustain their futures. Together with the families of Curuguaty we ask President Cartes to make their dreams come true. And we will continue to work with the people of Curuguaty until this happens.
Over the past 10 years, land grabs and the lack of governmental support has forced 585,000 young people from the farmlands of Paraguay. Young people such as Dolores and Luis have been left with no land on which to grow crops or live within their community, Curuguaty. The two of them could build their future on a publicly owned stretch of land of 2,000 hectares that is currently in the hands of a company that produces soy – a product that generates huge profits and which is exported to Europe and China where it is used as biofuel, animal forage and human food. Oxfam, the affected communities and Articulación Curuguaty, formed of over 40 organizations representing the civil society of Paraguay, have launched a campaign to support the young people and farming families of Curuguaty who have lost their lands to claim their right to a place where they can cultivate their own food and build a future for themselves.
What happened in Curuguaty?
The company of a landowner - Farming families without land - Public land to which farmers have claimed a right but which an agribusiness owner has claimed as his property - A violent eviction - Seventeen people killed. These are some of the facts that describe what happened in Curuguaty, a small city in eastern Paraguay, near the Brazilian border. In this region, farmers are rapidly losing their lands to soy crops – a crop which is rapidly expanding because taxes on it are very low while profits are huge for landowners, who grow this and other crops for export. This could be just another example of land-grabbing, but it is not. There are several factors that make Curuguaty an exceptional case:
Rodolfo Castro: "We value land because she is like a mother to us, she gives us life. To those who cannot understand this we tell them that land is our mother because she gives us life and nourishes us.There are many young people in our same situation, but instead of thinking of ways to obtain land, they go live in the big cities".
Ramona González: "I ask President Horacio Cartes to grant us the land we claim because we know these are public lands. What's more, I demand he gives it to us because we want to work the land. There is no possible future without land. I also ask him to free my husband.
Dolores Peralta: They told us they would give us the land right away, but things turned out differently. We came here to cultivate the land; that is what we wanted to do. For those who cannot understand it I will tell them the following: for us, land is our mother because it gives us life. If we do not have land, we do not have a future.

The Investment Management Consultants Association has released the findings of a survey on investor expectations of their advisors, and it turns out that the younger the investor, the more highly they value their advisor holding professional credentials, especially licenses and registrations that they are not required to hold.
As part of the 2014 Advisor Impact "Economics of Loyalty" research, 84% of the millennials surveyed said it was "important" or "critical" that their advisors obtain voluntary certifications. Among the total of 1,200 investors surveyed, 62% felt that way about their advisors, while 65% said they found it either "somewhat important" or "critical" that their advisor's credential was issued "by an objective, nonprofit, third-party certifier."
The survey polled 1,200 individuals who have worked with or are currently working with a financial advisor, and was conducted online in February. IMCA contracted with Advisor Impact, the international research firm headed by Julie Littlechild, to include several custom questions as part of the annual survey.
In a statement, IMCA CEO and Executive Director Sean Walters called the findings "the latest in a long line of consumer research to foretell rising client expectations, particularly among millennials," but noted as well that the survey is one of the first in the industry "to rank the most important criteria for advisor credentials."
To Walters' point, when respondents were asked which of six advisor competencies was "most important to you," 59% chose investment management, followed by "holistic financial planning" at 22% and tax and estate planning knowledge and strategies at 9%. While 79% of respondents said it was important that their advisor "met a rigorous set of standards to be certified," an even higher number — 81% — said it was "important" or "critical" that their advisors meet "ongoing standards" to maintain those credentials. Another 80% of those surveyed thought it important that an advisor would lose his or her credentials if he or she "failed to meet ethics standards."
The survey also asked how respondents came to choose their current advisor, and recommendations from a friend or family member topped the list, at 46%, followed by "general word of mouth" at 22%. However, among millennial investors (ages 18 to 29), 22% said they used online search to help identify their advisor, compared with only 7% of total respondents.
Wealthier clients also differed in the resources they used to pick an advisor. Among respondents with a minimum of $5 million in investable assets, 16% cited "advisor rankings," like those published by Barron's and Money magazines, compared with 9% of overall respondents who said they used third-party rankings to choose their advisors.
Finally, of those high-net-worth investors, 17% of those surveyed said they used online searches to identify their advisors, compared with 7% of all respondents.

"You can't always get what you want. But if you try sometimes, you just might find you get what you need."
The Rolling Stone lyrics have ran through my head over the last two weeks. And today, like many other times in my life, the lyrics hold meaning. In the past, I've applied the lyrics to my personal and social life. But today, the lyrics apply to my professional life.
Some of my time and energy away from this blog during the fall semester was for something I wanted. While I do not know the result of the desire and energy, I feel positive about my role. I realized about two weeks ago, that while I'm thankful for chasing the "want" I need to find a way to get what I "need." This blog, my research on video games strategies and information literacy, the research community I've been lucky enough to tap into, and the people I've met in the field are really what I "need."
Regardless of what my professional situation is, I have the ability to continue my professional development and advocacy of games in information literacy. My renewed commitment to this blog over the past week is part of realizing I have to provide what I "need" no matter what I think I "want."
While this may sound a little cryptic, it's been cathartic for me. Steven Bell's ACRLog post that I talked about earlier discussed how blogs provide younger people in the professional a voice. This has most certainly been the case for me, and I'm very grateful. Even though my voice over this year has not always been as clear (learning) and as consistent (sorry) as I'd hope, I am very thankful for the opportunities this blog has helped create.
During this time of year of reflection and celebration, I want to thank everyone who's helped provide those opportunities. Thank you to everyone for reading. Thank you to everyone who's engaged in conversations, both online and off. Thank you to those whose work I've been able to highlight and discuss over the past year. And thank you to anyone out there who is advancing video games in libraries and education.
Thank you for giving me what I need. And I hope that I can continue to work to find ways to effectively give our students what they "need" as well. And maybe through video games and game strategies the students can even get what the "want" as well.

Albert Mohler on Franklin Graham being Disinvited from the Pentagon
May 6th marked the United States' National Day of Prayer—with Franklin Graham leading prayer at the Pentagon.
Outside, after being disinvited two weeks previously due to his commitment to biblical Christianity.
Albert Mohler provided some thoughtful commentary regarding the situation on his website:
Evangelical Christians in the United States had better see a big challenge staring us in the face. Franklin Graham was disinvited by the Pentagon for making statements that are required by faithfulness to the gospel of Christ. As reports make clear, it is not just his statements about Islam being prone to violence that cause offense, it is his statements that Islam is wicked because it does not lead to salvation in Christ that cause the greatest offense.
The Pentagon failed its test, but many more tests will follow. Faithful witness to Christ requires an honest statement about what any false system of belief represents — a form of idolatry and false teaching that leads to eternal damnation. There may be more and less offensive ways of saying that, but there is no way to remove the basic offense to the current cultural mind.
In reality, every evangelical preacher and every individual Christian will face this question — and probably sooner rather than later.

Nausea and vomiting in pregnancy, often known as morning sickness, is very common in early pregnancy.
It can affect you at any time of the day or night, and some women feel sick all day long.
Morning sickness is unpleasant, and for some women it can significantly affect their day-to-day life. But it doesn't put your baby at any increased risk, and usually clears up by weeks 16 to 20 of your pregnancy.
Some women develop a severe form of pregnancy sickness called hyperemesis gravidarum. This can be serious, and there's a chance you may not get enough fluids in your body (dehydration) or not get enough nutrients from your diet (malnourishment). You may need specialist treatment, sometimes in hospital.
Sometimes urinary tract infections (UTIs) can also cause nausea and vomiting. A UTI usually affects the bladder, but can spread to the kidneys.
Non-urgent advice: Call your midwife or GP if:
you're vomiting and:
- have very dark-coloured urine or have not had a pee in more than 8 hours
- are unable to keep food or fluids down for 24 hours
- feel severely weak, dizzy or faint when standing up
- have tummy (abdominal) pain
- have pain or blood when you pee
- have lost weight
These can be signs of dehydration or a urine infection.
Treatments for morning sickness
Unfortunately, there's no hard and fast treatment that will work for every woman's morning sickness. Every pregnancy will be different.
But there are some changes you can make to your diet and daily life to try to ease the symptoms.
If these don't work for you or you're having more severe symptoms, your doctor or midwife might recommend medication.
Things you can try yourself
If your morning sickness isn't too bad, your GP or midwife will initially recommend you try some lifestyle changes:
- get plenty of rest (tiredness can make nausea worse)
- avoid foods or smells that make you feel sick
- eat something like dry toast or a plain biscuit before you get out of bed
- eat small, frequent meals of plain foods that are high in carbohydrate and low in fat (such as bread, rice, crackers and pasta)
- eat cold foods rather than hot ones if the smell of hot meals makes you feel sick
- drink plenty of fluids, such as water (sipping them little and often may help prevent vomiting)
- eat foods or drinks containing ginger – there's some evidence ginger may help reduce nausea and vomiting (check with your pharmacist before taking ginger supplements during pregnancy)
- try acupressure – there's some evidence that putting pressure on your wrist, using a special band or bracelet on your forearm, may help relieve the symptoms
Find out more about vitamins and supplements in pregnancy
Anti-sickness medication
If your nausea and vomiting is severe and doesn't improve after trying the above lifestyle changes, your GP may recommend a short-term course of an anti-sickness medicine, called an antiemetic, that's safe to use in pregnancy.
Often this will be a type of antihistamine, which are usually used to treat allergies but also work as medicines to stop sickness (antiemetic).
Antiemetics will usually be given as tablets for you to swallow.
But if you can't keep these down, your doctor may suggest an injection or a type of medicine that's inserted into your bottom (suppository).
See your GP if you'd like to talk about getting anti-sickness medication.
Risk factors for morning sickness
It's thought hormonal changes in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy are probably one of the causes of morning sickness.
But you may be more at risk of it if:
- you're having twins or triplets
- you had severe nausea and vomiting in a previous pregnancy
- you tend to get motion sickness (for example, car sick)
- you have a history of migraine headaches
- morning sickness runs in the family
- you used to feel sick when taking contraceptives containing oestrogen
- it's your first pregnancy
- you're obese (your BMI is 30 or more)
- you're experiencing stress

You guys. I discovered a tip for making grilled cheese that will blow your mind.
Are you ready?
You can bake it in the oven. And … it turns out better than cooking it in a skillet!
A week or so ago, I had whipped up a pot of tomato soup and wanted grilled cheese sandwiches to go with it. I typically use my cast iron skillet to make each sandwich one by one, but I was looking for a way to make multiple sandwiches at once (we have a big appetite). Apparently, other people have wondered the same thing and I found a recipe online for baked grilled cheese sandwiches.
All you have to do is preheat your oven to 450 degrees. From there, butter one side of your bread (I use Earth Balance), throw your cheese in the middle (Daiya slices work perfectly), and bake on one side for 6 minutes, then flip to the other side and bake for 4 to 6 minutes. And, voila! You can make as many as your sheet pan will hold at one time.
It's the little things …

METS: Matt Harvey shuts down Chicago Cubs with arm and bat
CHICAGO >> Having already impressed with his arm, Matt Harvey got to show off his bat.
The 24-year-old right-hander won his fifth straight decision, allowing five hits in 7 1-3 innings and singling in the go-ahead run in the seventh to lead the New York Mets over the Chicago Cubs 3-2 Friday.
"This guy is different. He's not your run-of-the-mill young pitcher," Mets manager Terry Collins said. "This guy has got some savvy. He's got great confidence"
Daniel Murphy and David Wright homered for the Mets, and reserve right fielder Marlon Byrd preserved the lead by throwing out a runner at the plate in the eighth inning. The Mets won consecutive games for the first time since May 1 and 3.
Harvey (5-0) won his first four starts of the year, then failed to get a decision in his next four outings.
"I think today, the big thing was the curveball," Harvey said after his 19th major league start. "I had that working well and was able to throw that for a strike when I needed to."
Collins that earlier this year he would have pinch hit for Harvey when the pitcher's spot came up following Ankiel's seventh-inning double. But with the Mets' offense struggling, Collins is thinking more about pitching and defense.
Harvey went up to the plate and singled to break a 2-2 tie.
"That was awesome," Harvey said. "That was huge for me."
Chicago took a 2-1 lead in the first with three hits off Harvey, who had allowed just three first-inning hits this year.
Startlin Castro singled, Anthony Rizzo doubled and Alfonso Soriano hit an RBI single to shortstop Ruben Tejada, who ranged behind second and bounced a catchable one-hop throw past first baseman Ike Davis for a throwing error as Rizzo came home.
Nate Schierholtz lined to center, starting a streak in which Harvey retired 20 of 21 batters around Castro's one-out single in the third.
"All of the sudden, he got it going," Collins said. "He had such a rough first inning. You worry about it late in the game. Then all the sudden he started cruising. He started getting a feel for it. I tell you, he is a horse, no doubt about it."
Harvey gave up both runs, struck out six and walked none as his ERA rose from 1.45 to 1.55. Scott Rice, Gregg Burke and Bobby Parnell combined for one-hit relief, with Parnell pitching a perfect ninth for his fifth save in seven chances.
"After that first inning, it was kind of the Matt Harvey show," Cubs manager Dale Sveum said. "He's obviously the real deal."
Edwin Jackson (1-6), coming off a victory at Washington on May 11, gave up three runs and seven hits in 6 2-3 innings.
Wright's sixth homer of the season, on a 1-2 pitch, put the Mets ahead in the first. Murphy's opposite-field home run to left leading off the fourth tied the score at 2.
Ankiel doubled to right just over Schierholtz's glove with one out in the seventh. Harvey, at that point 2 for 18 at the plate this year, singled to left.
Byrd preserved the lead in the eighth. Darwin Barney singled leading off and was sacrificed to second, and Rice relieved Harvey.
David DeJesus singled sharply to right, and third-base coach David Bell sent Barney home. Byrd threw on the fly to catcher John Buck, and the ball beat Barney by about 15 feet. Barney didn't even bother to slide and slowed down as Buck applied the tag.
"Turned out it wasn't a very close play," Bell said. "It's disappointing, it was the wrong decision. I just watched the replay again, and it wasn't close. As a third-base coach, you want to make the right decision, and that wasn't the right decision."
NOTES: Cubs manager Dale Sveum would not put a date on the return of RHP Matt Garza to the starting rotation. Garza threw 75 pitches in six innings Thursday for Triple-A Iowa. Garza suffered a training camp lat muscle strain and has not pitched for the Cubs this season. "He did what we asked him to do," Sveum said. ... Davis ended an 0-for-24 slide with a sixth-inning single.

Data and Statistics for Cerebral Palsy
Prevalence and Characteristics
- Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common motor disability in childhood. 1
- Population-based studies from around the world report prevalence estimates of CP ranging from 1.5 to more than 4 per 1,000 live births or children of a defined age range. (2, 3, 4, 5,6)
- About 1 in 323 children has been identified with CP according to estimates from CDC's Autism and Developmental Disabilities Monitoring (ADDM) Network. Read summaryexternal icon
- CDC tracks CP through the Autism and Developmental Disabilities Monitoring (ADDM) CP Network.
- In 2008, the ADDM CP Network included areas of Alabama, Georgia, Missouri, and Wisconsin. Based on children who were 8 years old and living in these four communities in 2008, the ADDM CP data showed that: Read summaryexternal icon | Read Community Report pdf icon[PDF – 13 MB]
- CP was more common among boys than among girls.
- CP was more common among Black children than White children. Hispanic and White children were about equally likely to have CP.
- Most (77.4%) of the children identified with CP had spastic CP.
- Over half (58.2%) of the children identified with CP could walk independently.
- Many of the children with CP also had at least one co-occurring condition—41% had co-occurring epilepsy and 6.9% had co-occurring ASD.
Walking Ability
- In 2008, 58.2% of children with CP could walk independently, 11.3% walked using a hand-held mobility device, and 30.6% had limited or no walking ability. Read summaryexternal icon
- According to 2006 data from the ADDM CP Network, Black children with cerebral palsy were 1.7 times more likely to have limited or no walking ability compared with White children. Read summaryexternal icon
- Another study found that 41% of children with CP were limited in their ability to crawl, walk, run, or play, and 31% needed to use special equipment such as walkers or wheelchairs. Read articleexternal icon
Co-Occurring Developmental Disabilities
- Almost half (41%) of the children identified with CP by the ADDM CP Network had co-occurring epilepsy. Co-occurring epilepsy frequency was highest among children with cerebral palsy who had limited or no waking ability. Read summaryexternal icon
- Some (6.9%) of the children identified with CP also had autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Co-occurring ASD frequency was higher among children with non-spastic CP, particularly hypotonic CP. Read summaryexternal icon
- It is important to note that the overall identified prevalence of ASD among children in the US is about 1% (7). That means that the identified prevalence of ASD among children with CP is much higher than among their peers without CP.
- The ADDM site that tracks CP in metropolitan Atlanta is the Metropolitan Atlanta Developmental Disabilities Surveillance Program (MADDSP). MADDSP 2006 data show that:
- Approximately 60% of 8-year-old children with CP had another developmental disability.
- More than 40% of children with CP had intellectual disability, 35% had epilepsy, and more than 15% had vision impairment. Nearly 1 in 4 children with CP had both intellectual disability and epilepsy.
Risk Factors
Low Birthweight and Premature Birth
- A study in metropolitan Atlanta found that the prevalence of CP was 6.2 per 1,000 livebirths among children born weighing 1,500 to 2,499 grams (3⅓ to 5½ pounds) and 59.5 per 1,000 livebirths among children born weighing less than 1,500 grams, compared with 1.1 per 1,000 for children born weighing 2,500 grams or more. Read articleexternal icon
- In data from Europe and Australia, the prevalence of CP ranged from: (8)
- 35.0 to 79.5 per 1,000 live births for children born at 28 to 31 weeks gestation
- 1.1 to 1.7 per 1,000 live births for children born at 37 or more weeks gestation
- In data from Sweden, the prevalence of CP was: (8)
- 43.7 per 1,000 live births for children born at 28 to 31 weeks gestation
- 6.1 per 1,000 live births among children born at 32 to 36 weeks gestation
- 1.4 per 1,000 live births for children born at 37 or more weeks gestation
- A study in Scotland found that children born as part of a multiple birth pregnancy such as being a twin were found to be almost five times more likely to have CP than children born as singletons. Part, but not all, of this increased risk is due to the fact that multiple birth children are more likely to be born prematurely or at low birthweight. Read summaryexternal icon
- A study in Denmark found that children born after in vitro fertilization (assisted conception) were 1.6 times as likely to have CP, due to the fact that they were more likely to be born prematurely or from a multiple pregnancy. Read articleexternal icon
Disruption of Blood and Oxygen Supply to the Developing Brain
- Ischemic stroke, when a blood clot blocks a blood vessel in the brain, is recognized to cause brain damage that can result in CP. It can occur in the developing fetal brain during pregnancy or shortly after birth. Read summaryexternal icon
- Disruption of the oxygen supply during birth (birth hypoxia) has been estimated to account for less than 10% of CP cases. Read summaryexternal icon
Infection Among Mothers
- Infection of the placental membranes (chorioamnionitis) or other signs of infection (blood infection in the mother or fever during labor) have been associated with an increased risk of CP for children born full-term. Read articleexternal icon, Read summaryexternal icon
- Chorioamnionitis has been found to account for 12% of spastic CP among children born full-term and 28% of CP among children born prematurely. Read articleexternal icon
- Maternal genitourinary infection has been associated with an increased risk of CP among children born prematurely or at low birthweight. Read articleexternal icon
Other Factors
- Birth defects of the central nervous system (brain) were found to be more common among children with CP than among those without CP. Read summaryexternal icon
- Data from metropolitan Atlanta showed that about 10% to 15% of CP was acquired in the early years of a child's life. The most frequent causes were brain injuries from motor vehicle crashes or falls, and infections (such as meningitis). Read article, Read summaryexternal icon
Economic Costs
- Among children enrolled in Medicaid in 2005, medical costs were higher for children with cerebral palsy. Costs were highest for children with both cerebral palsy and intellectual disability. Read summaryexternal icon
- Medical costs for children with cerebral palsy alone were 10 times higher than for children without cerebral palsy or intellectual disability ($16,721 vs. $1,674 in 2005 dollars).
- Medical costs for children with both cerebral palsy and intellectual disability were 26 times higher than for children without cerebral palsy or intellectual disability ($43,338 vs. $1,674 in 2005 dollars).
- CDC has estimated that the lifetime cost to care for an individual with CP is nearly $1 million (2003 dollars). Read article
- It also has been estimated that the combined lifetime costs for all people with CP who were born in 2000 will total $11.5 billion in direct and indirect costs. Read article

Non-perturbative effects are responsible for the
essential dynamical features of the four-dimensional gauge theories such as
QCD. The N=2 supersymmetric four-dimensional theories are an interesting
class of models in which non-perturbative computations can be carried out with
arbitrary precision using localization of the path integrals. I will explain
the new exact non-perturbative results and the relation to classical and
quantum integrable systems for a large class of N=2 supersymmetric QCD.

I want to do shipment of consigned item to our Vendor. But for any shipment "Sales order" is mandatory in compiere.
How to do shipment for Consigned Item?
I followed the below approach,
I created a dummy sales order with product A (2 Quantity) Once i complete the document A (2 Quantity) is moved from On hand quantity to Reserved quantity.
When i create the Shipment i use the above dummy sales Order so in the shipment line A - (2 Quantity) was appeared. I also add other consigned product in that shipment like B (5 Quantity)(Which actually not in Sales Order). Now if i click the complete and i saw the product info for Product A it reduced the Reserved qty and the reserved quantity was 0. But for Product B the reserved quantity become -5 and available quantity was doesn't changed. Only onhand quantity was reduced.
Please let me know how to handle this consigned item??????

I know! I can't believe it either! My baby girl is one today! In remembrance of that special day I'm going to take a little look back…
February 24th, 2008
I woke up that morning extremely uncomfortable because I was ridiculously pregnant and baby girl was hanging out with her feet jammed under my ribs. Also, today was my due date and baby had not dropped…I was NEVER going to have her. Jared knew I was not in a good mood so he said he would watch Cedi while I went and sewed a bit…sewing relaxed me.
My mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and I had decided to make a quilt for Katrina's wedding (Barb's daughter). Karma had just gotten me her blocks the day before and I decided I would try to get my portion done since I knew that once baby did decide to come I wouldn't have much time for sewing. I ended up finishing my part in the quilt that morning.
I think Karma called me around 1:00 to wish me "Happy Due-Date." I responded with, "Shut Up, this baby is never coming." Around 2ish I felt something weird…but wasn't quite sure what it was (I was induced with Cedi and once I started contracting I pretty much had my baby-so I wasn't really sure what contractions felt like). Cedi was napping so I told Jared that we should do the bills while she was down.
I decided to take a shower. When I got out I realized that my contractions were really close together. I told Jared he should call his parents…we needed to go to the hospital.
I think we arrived at the hospital around 4 or 4:30. Jared said that the roads were the best they had been all winter. (thank goodness!) I felt like I was in Triage forever before they finally got me my own room. All I wanted was an epidural.
My doctor got to the hospital pretty quickly…it was her first anniversary and I tore her away from their dinner (sorry but thanks!). All I wanted was an epidural. My doctor ordered one for me as soon as she got there but she knew my labor would probably be short. They called to say the epidural would be there in fifteen minutes. I made Jared tell me the time so I could try to keep track. Thirty minutes later and 8 cm I had given up all hope. I even looked at my doctor and said, "This is going to be you in three months!" (she was pregnant too…)
But, miracles upon miracles, the anesthesiologist arrived right then. Stuck an insanely large needle in my back while I was having contractions (I had to sit absolutely still, but it really helped me deal with the pain by having something to focus on). It started to work pretty much right away. I had them put the Oscars on. They told me that a lot of women like to wait and rest before they start pushing. I said, "Let's just get her out." Fifteen minutes later (at 8:16pm), my beautiful baby girl, Capri, joined us. She was 8lbs 1oz and 21-inches of absolute perfection!
Happy Birthday my beautiful and sweet baby girl!
Cedi (at 15 mo) meets her baby sis for the first time!
And here we both are…exactly ONE year later! Happy Birthday Capri!

I'm a little late but Happy Birthday Capri!
I love birth stories, thank you for sharing this. Also, I love that your girls are only 15 months apart - don't know if it will happen, but we'd love to have ours that close in age.

KC teen describes hit-and-run crash
Friend suffers serious head injury after wreck
One of the three teenagers who survived a crash late Thursday when their car was hit by a pickup truck says he's been worried that one of his friends won't make it.
Mohamed Mohamed, 17, a senior at Northeast High School, has been at the University of Kansas Hospital since the crash last night.
Police said they tried to pull over a truck late Thursday but the truck sped away. At Independence Avenue and Van Brunt Boulevard, it hit a car with Mohamed and two friends inside.
Osman Mberwa, who was also in the car, said they didn't see it coming.
"That was when the car came and hit us in the back. I blacked out for three spins. The driver said we spun three times. Then, after we hit the light, that's when I woke up and I was confused," Mberwa said.
He said when he woke up, the truck was gone. He also didn't see his friend.
"I asked the driver, 'Where's Mohamed?' He looks out. Mohamed is outside. I said, 'How did he get there?' And the window was broken," Mberwa said.
Police said Mohamed had been thrown from the vehicle and suffered a head injury. Police said late Friday that they do expect him to survive.
Mberwa said Mohamed, the goalkeeper for the Northeast High School soccer team, is a good friend.
"He's nice. He's always smiling. He's always happy. He liked to joke around," he said.
Police said the women in the truck that hit the car eventually crashed on the ramp connecting interstates 70 and 435.
"I'm just wishing that they weren't making the bad choices in the first place and nothing like this would've happened," Mberwa said.
He said that he and his friends were at Northeast High School late Thursday to run the concession stand for a junior varsity basketball game.

Don't Help the Users – Move Your A$$ Monday #32
Warren has a great solution to help you separate the advice-seekers who want to waste your time from those who really want and need your help.
To inquire into Warren's availability for speaking at your keynote or seminar, send him some info here: Keynotes and Seminar Speaking.
Move Your Ass Monday! #32 – Don't Help the Users
Hi this is Warren Greshes and welcome to, "Move Your Ass Monday!" I'm here to eliminate all the excuses, get your week started on a high note and make sure you reach your fullest potential.
Don't you just hate it when people ask for your advice and help but when you give it to them they come up with a Christmas list of excuses for why they can't do it or why it can't be done.
What's even worse is when you spend a lot of your own time and energy helping someone who asked for your help, let you do most of the heavy lifting, and then flaked out on you.
That is why years ago I decided to live by one very simple rule, which you might be very interested in. It's designed to separate the serious people from the time wasters. And it is this:
I will give you all the help and advice you want and ask for as long as your commitment to yourself remains larger than my commitment to you. The second my commitment to you becomes greater than your commitment to yourself, I'm outta here.
Unfortunately, I had to have my time wasted way too often before I figured it out. Now when people come to me for help or advice, I tell them I'll be glad to help them as long as they complete a list of tasks I give them. These tasks are related to what they want to achieve, and by completing them will get them on the way to where they want to be.
Once they've done those things, I ask them to come back to me and I'll give them all the help they want. Why not; they've shown they're willing to do what it takes. Of course, asking them to do those tasks eliminates 97% of the people who approach me, otherwise known as the "Time Wasters," or "Users."
They were never serious, but figured, "Hey, if this dope wants to do all the work for me, I'll take him up on it." Well not this dope. Besides, the time you waste with the "Users," is time you could have spent with the 3% who need your help and advice, will use it and prosper because of it.
If you like this video series and want the link delivered right to your email first thing Monday morning go to my website at greshes.com and in the upper right hand corner sign up for a free subscription. See ya next Monday.

Justin Bieber Crusading to Lower 'Bully' Documentary Rating
Justin Bieber is the latest in a long line of celebs and stars to etch his virtual John Hancock on an online petition that hopes to have the rating for 'Bully' lowered from an 'R' so more people across a larger age group can see the film. A-listers are signing the petition in hopes of enacting change.
MPAA censors branded the film with the 'R' rating, which means that children under 18 cannot view the film unless accompanied by an adult. However, the film's backers are fighting that rating, since the movie is designed to help and inspire kids who are dealing with bullying. It's crucial that the rating being lowered as it would open up the potential and increase the impact for this incredibly important film that takes a hard look at a topical issue in our society.
According to WENN, Michigan high schooler and former bullying victim Katy Butler launched the petition on Change.org.
She said, "I can't believe the MPAA is blocking American teenagers from seeing a movie that could literally save thousands of lives. The MPAA needs to give 'Bully' a PG-13 so the students being bullied and bullies themselves can see this film and schools can show it as well."
She continued, "It's awful. Everyone either gets bullied or is a bully. We need to change this, and showing this film is one way of doing that."
Demi Lovato and Lady Gaga are also supporting the crusade to lower the rating. Each pop diva has already done plenty of work to combat the bullying epidemic and this is another avenue for them to use their star power for good.

Gels are three-dimensional polymer networks with entrapped solvent (water etc.). They bear amazing features such as stimuli-responsive (temperature, PH, electric field etc.), high water content and biocompatibility and thus find a lot of applications. To understand the complex physics behind gel's swelling phenomenon, it is important to build up fundamental mechanical model and extend to complicated cases. In this dissertation, a coupled large deformation and diffusion model regarding gel's swelling behavior is presented. In this model, free-energy of the total gel is constituted by polymer stretching energy and polymer-solvent mixing energy. In-house nonlinear finite element code is implemented with fast …

Folic acid Benefits And Its ImportanceFolic acid are forms of the water-soluble vitamin B9. Folic acid, which is also called folate, is a B vitamin. The best food sources of folic acid are fortified cereals. Folic acid plays an important role in the production of red blood cells and helps your baby's neural tube develop into her brain and spinal cord.
Folic acid actually have no side effects, hence it is said to be the safe substance to consume for health benefits. Folic acid is also important in the metabolism of protein and the prevention of anemia. Therefore, folic acid is said to be very essential for pregnant women and in prevention of many severe medical conditions including Spina bifida (split spine), which is a severe spinal cord disease found in infants.
Folic acid is a water soluble vitamin beneficial for almost all aspects of human health. The biggest benefit of folic acid is observed in pregnant women and women planning to conceive. Women in childbearing age must consume at least 800-1000 mcg of folic acid in their regular diet. Folic acid is necessary for the healthy development of our cells, a healthy brain and protection from cell damage that may lead to future cancers. Folic acid aids drugs used to treat depression and may even hold great promise for the growing autism epidemic that faces the world today.
What Folic Acid Does:
Folic acid helps the body to make RNA and DNA, the body's genetic material that contains all the code for new cells. Because of this role, deficiencies of folic acid can have far-reaching effects, and is especially important during pregnancy, infancy and adolescence when the body is growing rapidly. Folic acid also is used in creating red blood cells and regulating the use of iron by the body. It also works closely with vitamins B6 and B12 to help control levels of the amino acid, homo-cysteine. Researchers suspect that elevated levels of homo-cysteine may be implicated in a number of illnesses and conditions, including come cancers, heart disease, diabetes and depression.
Folic Acid Benefits
1. Fetal development
Erythrocyte production - the adequate and appropriate development of an unborn child's brain and spinal cord - is dependent on foods rich in folate. A lack of folate during pregnancy can lead to gaps in the development of the spinal cord, which can result in paralysis, brain damage, or a stillborn child.
2. Production of red blood cells
Folate is key in the development of red blood cells or erythrocytes. A lack of this compound can make the body susceptible to cancer. In addition, the body's defense mechanism, the white blood cells, are also manufactured in the presence of folate supplements.
3. Thwarting heart disease
Folic acid supplements also help the heart stay healthy and function optimally. Folate deficiency can lead to an increased risk of heart disease, coronary complications, and strokes in patients. In the U.S., after bread and cereal companies were asked to add vitamin B12 to their products, the rate of heart disease and stroke decreased by about 15 percent. Folic acid also helps remove homo-cysteine, a toxic compound that can lead to severe artery damage if not eliminated from the blood.
4. Helps in depression
Several studies have indicated that folate supplements can reduce depression. A deficiency may cause an increased risk of depression and dementia.
5. Helps keep brain young
Adequate folate levels are necessary for proper brain functioning. Studies have shown that folate benefits the brain by slowing down the effects of aging.
Other Benefits
Recent study shows that a sufficient intake of folic acid lowers the rate of recurring miscarriages. More benefits are mentioned below.
• Increases breast milk
• Prevents Alzheimer's disease
• Good for skin care
• Improves Brain development and functioning
• Prevents cancer
• Improves Fertility
• Prevents eye diseases like Macular degeneration
Sources of Folic Acid
There are two main sources of folic acid:
• Food
• Vitamin Supplements
Folate and folic acid are different terms for the same B vitamin. Folate is found naturally in foods and folic acid is the synthetic form of the vitamin found in multivitamins and supplements.
The body does not use the natural form of folic acid (folate) as easily as the synthetic form. We cannot be sure that eating foods containing folate would have the same benefits as consuming folic acid in a multivitamin. Also, even if you eat a healthy, well-balanced diet, you might not get all the nutrients you need every day from food alone. Even women who eat foods enriched with folic acid are still not getting all that they need. That's why it's important for all women of childbearing age to take a multivitamin containing a minimum of 0.4 mg of folic acid. High-risk women need to take even more folic acid every day.
Folate food sources
Good dietary sources of folate include: green leafy vegetables like spinach and broccoli, bananas, strawberries, oranges, tomatoes, asparagus, legumes, yeast, cereals, mushrooms, fish, eggs, poultry, meat (specifically organs like liver and kidneys), and dairy.
Symptoms of Folic Acid Deficiency:
Folic acid deficiency can cause poor growth, tongue inflammation, gingivitis, loss of appetite, shortness of breath, diarrhea, irritability, forgetfulness, and mental sluggishness. Folic acid deficiency in pregnant women has been proven to cause neural tube birth defects in the newborn.
Recommended Amount: How Much You Need
Aim to get 700 micrograms (mcg) of folate per day. The average daily diet contains about 300 mcg, so choose a multivitamin with 400 mcg of folic acid to top off your daily dose. Pregnant women as well as people who have cancer, severe burns, or skin diseases may need extra folate to maintain healthy levels.
Don't exceed 1,000 mcg of folic acid per day - too much could lead to nerve damage or vitamin B12 deficiency.
