New U.S. aid strategy for global hunger gets praise
Nov 24, 2010
Bread for the World president and winner of the World Food Prize David Beckmann recently commended Feed the Future, a new U.S. anti-hunger program that aims to improve food production among 20 developing nations.
Even though Bread for the World has been critical of a lack of U.S. initiative to curb global poverty, the organization said in its 2011 Hunger Report that the Obama administration's Feed the Future program "may be the best opportunity in decades for the U.S. to make significant progress against global hunger."
The program is part of a general response to the 2008 food crisis, during which U.S. policymakers began refocusing their attention on agriculture-led development in order to stave off rising food costs.
Beckmann lauded the initiative, noting its distinct capacity to allow those receiving the aid to decide how to use it, whether it be funding for infrastructure, school nutrition programs, or seed and fertilizer supply. Beckmann also praised its promised attention to measuring child malnutrition.
"Makes sense, but it's hard to do, and it's often not been done," he said, according to Voice of America.
The news source reports that the administration will invest $3.5 billion over three years to fund the effort, which aims to combat poverty and malnutrition by helping farmers improve their productivity.

Medication Safety for Babies
Many medications for babies and small children look and taste like candy or food. While this might make it easier for little ones to take medicines, it also means parents need to be extra careful to keep medicines up and away when not being used. Here are some simple tips to ensure your baby's safety.
Top Safety Tips
- Put medicines up and away and out of sight. Make sure that all medicines, including vitamins and adult medicines, are stored out of reach and out of sight of children. (In 86% of emergency room visits for medicine poisoning, the child got into medicine belonging to an adult.)
- Even if you are tempted to keep it handy, put medicine out of reach after every use. When you need to give another dose in just a few hours, it may be tempting to keep medicine close at hand. Accidents can happen fast. It only takes a few seconds for children to get into medicine that could make them very sick. Put medicine up and away after every use. And if you need a reminder, set an alarm on your watch or cell phone, or write yourself a note.
- Talk to your kids about medication safety. Even if their medication tastes good, don't compare it to candy to encourage kids to take it.
- Close your medicine tightly after every use. Buy medicines that come in child-resistant packages when you can. But remember, child-resistant does not mean child-proof, and some children will still be able to get into medicine given enough time and persistence. Make sure you close the package tightly after each use.
- Educate grandparents. It is estimated that in 38 percent of ER visits involving a medicine poisoning, the medicine belonged to a grandparent. Talk to grandparents about being extra mindful with medicine or pillboxes when children are around.
- Consider places where kids get into medicine. Kids get into medication in all sorts of places, like in purses and nightstands. (In 67% of cases, the medicine was within reach of a child, such as in a purse, left on a counter or dresser or found on the ground.)
- Be alert to visitors' medicine. Well-meaning visitors may not be thinking about the medicines they have brought with them in their belongings. When you have guests in your home, offer to put purses, bags and coats out of reach of children to protect their property from a curious child. (In 43% of cases, the medicine a child got into belonged to a relative, such as an aunt, uncle or grandparent.)
- Use the dosing device that comes with the medicine. Proper dosing is important, particularly for young children. Kitchen spoons aren't all the same, and a teaspoon and tablespoon used for cooking won't measure the same amount as the dosing device.

Love Crocs and wear size 8 always but these do not measure up. Uncomfortable! Great shoe if they would have fit!
Size Alert!
I have a thousand pairs of crocs. All women's size 8. I ordered 2 pairs of the crocband. They run about a size too small. I sent them back and got a women's 9. They fit just fine. Love these shoes!

Weird, but problem solved... somehow!
I ordered these shoes in a size 7 for my niece. She had an old pair that was perfect for her on that size. When this pair arrived they were too small for her!! How could that be? They were the same size than her old ones! A couple of weeks later we stopped at one of the Crocs store. My niece tried a pair of the same exact shoe, and size, and that pair fit perfectly fine!! Come to find out that the size 7 that didn't fit was made in Mexico, and the size 7 that fits was made in China!! We purchased the size 7 made in China and returned the other pair. HOWEVER, I find it quite unfair that WE HAD TO PAY $11.00 FOR THE RETURN, when it was NOT OUR FAULT AT ALL that we had to send them back! We would have kept them if the sizes didn't change depending on where the shoes were made!!! So, DO NOT order Crocs unless you are able to try them on first!!!

Santorum: 'I'm open' to 2016 bid
Former senator focused on staying 'in the fray' for now
Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum hinted Monday he may see another presidential run in his future.
"I'm open to that possibility," the Republican said when asked on CNN's "Piers Morgan Tonight" about a 2016 White House bid.
"But we're a long way..." he added, pausing, then continuing, "I'm focused right now on trying to stay involved in the fray and make sure that we do the right thing up on Capitol Hill right now."
Santorum proved a tough opponent to Mitt Romney during the Republican presidential primary, ultimately forcing the contest to run as late as April when Santorum dropped his bid and paved the way for Romney to clinch the nomination.
Since then, the social conservative launched a nonprofit group, "Patriot Voices," which advocates conservative causes and backs conservative candidates. The former senator also has maintained an active role as a political commentator and was an occasional surrogate for Romney during the campaign.
Santorum said Monday he was also focused on the Republican Party's inner debate about its future, adding that he wants to make sure "that we're going to be very active and engaged and stick to America's founding principles."
The former senator first told The Weekly Standard on Monday that he was "open" to another run.
His comments come one day after another 2012 Republican presidential hopeful said he hasn't ruled out a possible bid. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Sunday he has "no idea at this stage" whether he'll make another attempt at the Oval Office.

Comparing and Contrasting PowerPoints
Article posted March 9, 2011 at 08:44 PM GMT-6 • comment • Reads 9220
Mr. Luehmann shared with me that you were studying bacteria and viruses in science class. There are a lot of different ways to show what you've been learning, but I'd like to challenge your searching and evaluation skills a little. We will be working on a short project over the next three class periods.
1. Using the "filetype:" search option in Google, find PowerPoint files posted on the Internet that teach or present informaiton about bacteria and viruses.
2. Actively find, view, and evaluate a minimum of three presentations.
3. Compare, contast, and evaluate the presentation slides to determine which presentation in your opinion is the best presentation for helping someone to learn the basics about bacteria and viruses.
4. Write a blog article linking to the presentation you thought was the best, while including a summary of your comparing, contrasting, and thinking behind why you chose the presentation you did.
5. Things you will want to include in your article: a link to the presentation and some type of image reflecting the topic of the article.
Note: I'm not requiring a Venn Diagram or other graphic organizer for taking notes. Comparing, contrasting, and evaluating are pretty "brain-heavy" activities and you'll remember what you've done later better if you've taken SOME type of notes. It is up to you to decide which note-taking strategy works best for you.
Don't hesitate to let me know if you have any questions or suggestions.

6th Grade Assignment--Google Earth Street View Updates
Article posted March 1, 2011 at 07:48 AM GMT-6 • comment • Reads 4743
So do you remember Google Earth (G.E.)? Some of you may have fond memories of using it to create informative and pleasant looking placemarks. While others of you may want to forget the sad thoughts of losing and redoing hours of work in unsaved folders of mishandled KML files!
Either way you look at it, Google Earth is a powerful tool and is by far one of the best programs that helps connect knowledge and infomation to geographic location.
Here is a link to the Google Earth Blog, please read the latest article regarding the use of a tricycle to capture "street view" type images inside of places. Here is what I'd like you to DO:
1. Read the blog article about how Google is using a tricycle to get "Street-View" images inside of famous places. Feel free to follow the hyperlinks and even take five minutes to open G.E. and see what is new (don't get lost in there, you have more to do!). Clicking the "KML" links will download the placemarks and street view of those locations.
2. Write a blog article regarding your thoughts about what you just read. Include your opinion about other places you think Google should use the "trike" to get street view images. Also include in your article what you think is really good about doing using something like street view. On the opposite end, what do you think could be bad about Google taking images of the whole world?
3. Using GaggleTube, embed a video overview of street view and how it works. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5aSw1JgYUE&feature=fvwrel">Something like this)
4. Be sure to include tags at the bottom of you blog article.
I look forward to hearing your opinions!
Quick reminder: Remember how annoying it was to read other students blogs that didn't make sense, because it looked like they were just completing and assignment for their teacher? Wouldn't the article have made more sense if the person writing it wrote it with the understanding that the reader likely doesn't know what the assignment is! That is what you should. Write your article with the idea that a person who reads it, doesn't necessarily know the context of WHY you are writing it. Please include in your writing enough background information so your reader isn't lost! Thanks!

After enjoying the four games about the Judicial branch of governement at iCivics.org, reflect on your time by answering the addressing the following ideas or topics in a blog article:
1. How does your game reflect the purpose of the judicial branch in our representative democracy?
2. What new thing did you learn about our legal system from playing the games at iCivic?
3.Which game do you think will help you the most with your jury trial coming up (if your game did at all)?

Depending on engine speed, intake manifolds of different length are advantageous. These requirements can be met by installing a variable intake manifold: at low engine speeds a longer pipe increases torque and improves responsiveness. At higher speeds the shorter intake manifold is effective for high performance. Variability is the basis for an optimum torque curve over the entire engine-speed range, as well as for good acceleration and elasticity.

Microsoft has sold 40 million licenses of Windows 8 after one month on the market, the company announced Tuesday.
Microsoft is "very pleased with the customer reception so far," Tami Reller, Microsoft's new Windows division financial chief, said at a technology conference held by Credit Suisse.
The rapid adoption isn't all that surprising, considering that the launch occurred on Oct. 26 -- just before the holiday shopping season began. The comparison to Windows 7 is a bit tricky, since that OS was released in July.
Upgrades to the new operating system from previous Windows versions are outpacing Windows 7's early rate, Reller said. That's also not surprising: Microsoft has been offering $40 upgrades to Windows 8 during a promotional period (which ends Jan. 31) to anyone with a PC that runs Windows XP, Vista or 7. Customers who bought Windows 7 PCs since June were also offered $15 upgrades to Windows 8.
Though Reller herself made the comparison between Windows 8 and Windows 7, she quickly dismissed its significance.
"Each release of Windows has its own characteristics," she said. "It's always tempting to want to compare sales to Windows 7 ... but Windows 8 wasn't built for any one single selling season -- it was built for the future."
PC industry analysts expect Windows 8 sales to cool in the coming months. Gartner, for instance, anticipates sales of the new operating system coming in 6% lower than the first full year of Windows 7 sales.
At the conference, Reller acknowledged some of the obstacles Windows 8's path, including the lack of touchscreen PCs, a scarcity of Windows Store apps, and the large number of companies that just recently upgraded to Windows 7.
She said it will take "a few selling seasons" to get all the PC designs Microsoft wants into the marketplace and to build up a critical mass of apps in its store. Microsoft has sold $25,000 worth of apps on the Windows Store so far -- a clear sign that it's not going to blow the doors off Apple's multi-billion dollar app business quite yet.
As for Surface, Microsoft's own Windows tablet, Reller said it has been a success so far, despite "very limited distribution." Microsoft is only selling Surface at its small handful of stores and on its website. She declined to provide any sales numbers for the tablet.

Stocks traded higher Wednesday as the U.S. government's strong report on jobless claims offset new worries over Greece.
European finance ministers failed to finalize the details of a debt-reduction package for Greece before the close of their meeting Wednesday.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average, the S&P 500, and the Nasdaq traded between 0.2% and 0.4%. Trading volume was light Wednesday ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday on Thursday.
The inability of finance ministers to reach a deal over Greece has reignited worries about European sovereign debt, but European stocks closed higher Wednesday.
Britain's FTSE 100 and the DAX in Germany edged up 0.1% and France's CAC 40 rose 0.4%. European finance ministers had been expected to agree to release the funds for Greece so it would be able to make its December payments.
In the U.S., new jobless claims totaled 410,000 last week, impacted by storm conditions in the Northeast, but better than the 423,000 analysts had predicted.
In corporate news, Deere dipped 3% after the equipment maker released quarterly results. Shares of jewelry maker Zale dropped nearly 30% after the company reported a steep quarterly loss. Publisher Scholastic stock dropped nearly 18% after it lowered its forecasts for next year.
YY, the first Chinese IPO since April, jumped 10% in its debut on Nasdaq.
U.S. stocks ended flat Tuesday, amid a sharp sell-off in Hewlett-Packard shares after the company reported a massive loss. HP's shares were flat Wednesday.
World markets: Asian markets closed higher. The Shanghai Composite gained 1.1%, the Hang Seng in Hong Kong rose 1.4%, and Japan's Nikkei posted a 0.9% gain.
Economy: The University of Michigan's final version of its consumer sentiment index for November rose but was slightly less than analysts had expected.
Currencies and commodities: The dollar was higher against the euro and the Japanese yen, but slipped versus the British pound.
Oil for January delivery rose 73 cents to $87.48 a barrel. Turmoil in the Middle East has contributed to oil price volatility in recent days, with ongoing violence between the Israeli military and the Hamas leadership of Gaza.
Gold futures for December delivery rose $4.40 to $1,728.00 an ounce.
Bonds: The price on the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury edged lower, pushing the yield up to 1.68% from 1.59% late Tuesday.

| Posted by David B. | (San Francisco, CA)I put these on my 2014 Forester. They fit well, and the installation was easy. When you buy a pair, they are sold as a front and rear pair, but the difference is not distinguishable and nothing on the package or in the enclosed instructions made note of this. I haven't noticed any increased noise, and I often drive with the roof open, so I think the aeroblade is a smart design. As far as roof racks go, they look nice and look like they will last a long time.
