Professor Keri K. Gould
Assistant Dean for Professional Skills, Professor of Clinical Education, and Director of the Center for Professional Skills. B.A., Union College; J.D., American University.Professor Keri K. Gould directs the Professional Skills Program and created the Center for Professional Skills in 2004.The Center for Professional Skills seeks to prepare law students for lawyering in the real world through experiential education and real-life legal opportunities for learning and reflection. Courses and programs offered through the Center include: The Externship Programs (the General Externship, Civil Externship, Criminal Justice Externship, Judicial Externship, Summer Externship, Special Education Externship, International Human Rights Externship seminars, and Matrimonial ADR seminars); Criminal Defense, Prosecution and Domestic Violence Litigation Clinics; Trial Advocacy Programs (criminal and civil concentrated trial advocacy courses and the intensive trial advocacy course); the Polestino Trial Advocacy Institute (student organization dedicated to bringing training, education and competitions in trial skills to the law school community); and the Peter J. Johnson-National Civil Rights Trial Competition (annual national mock trial competition in civil rights law). As the Assistant Dean for Professional Skills and the Director of the Center for Professional Skills, I believe in challenging our students academically, giving students opportunities to reflect upon their professional growth and experiences and providing a strong platform upon which our students practice and excel in lawyering skills. Prof. Gould joined the St. John's faculty after having directed the externship programs at Fordham University School of Law from 1995-1998 and New York Law School from 1991-1994. She also taught at University of Utah College of Law from 1994-1996. After law school, she practiced with several public interest organizations, including the Legal Aid Society (Manhattan Criminal Defense Division) and the Mental Hygiene Legal Service (NYS Appellate Division, First Department). She has published numerous articles and is a frequent lecturer on clinical legal education, trial advocacy and extra-curricular student competitions and therapeutic jurisprudence. Professor Gould is the Faculty Advisor to the Polestino Trial Advocacy Institute and the Peter J. Johnson National Civil Rights Trial Competition.Professor Gould is very interested in the global application of experiential education. To that end, she has served as a legal education expert consultant for the American Bar Association Rule of Law Initiatives. Professor Gould went to Oman in 2009, working with the Asst. Dean of the Qaboos University College of Law to write a proposal creating the first law school clinic in Oman, to Lebanon in 2008 working with professors at the University La Sagesse Law School in Beirut on strategic planning, curriculum development, skills training and the development of a new Human Rights Clinic, as well as creating and teaching courses in ethics and legal writing, and, in 2006 Professor was in Phnom Penh, Cambodia where she designed an ethics course syllabus and lesson plans using interactive and participatory teaching methodologies. Most recently,she returned from a life-changing experience in Poland where she was a Legal Education and Observer and Participant (and photographer) for a week-long course on Genocide and Mass Atrocity Prevention in Military Practice held in Krakow and Oswiecim (the town where the Auschwitz and Birkenau camps are located). The program, organized by the Auschwitz Institute for Peace and Reconciliation (AIPR) www.auschwitzinstitute.orgwas open toselected students from the Fort Leavenworth Command and General Staff College. Situating the program in the shadow of the infamous work and death camps gave new meaning to the concept of experiential learning; there the sights, sounds and smells resonated with the fascinating and provocative course content.She was also the law school's representative and delivered a lecture, "Teaching Lawyering Skills in a Global World" at the International Conference on Globalization and the Role of Law Schools at Yeungnam University, Daegu, South Korea in 2005.Each year Professor Gould writes the casefile for the Peter J. Johnson -National Civil Rights Trial Competition. The inaugural National Civil Rights Trial Competition ("NCRC") was launched in February 2004. In 2008 the National Civil Rights Trial Competition was renamed in honor of Peter James Johnson '49, a law school graduate who has dedicated his legal career to excellence in the practice of law. The competition is the only national civil rights trial competition in the country. Sixteen teams from law schools around the country demonstrate their trial skills while being evaluated by experienced trial attorneys. The law school provides two predetermined witnesses to each team. First year law students are encouraged to learn about the court system and litigation practice by serving as witnesses during the competition. The initial rounds of the competition take place in real courtrooms at the Nassau County Supreme Court, often in front of sitting judges. Later rounds are held at the Law School. The 2011 competition case Zarr v Greenwood City, seeks a declarative judgment on the civil rights of a state employee to adhere to his or her religious beliefs while at work and the corresponding obligation of the government to reasonably accommodate the religious beliefs of its employees. The plaintiff, a corrections officer, wishes to wear a religious head covering while on duty. Each year the casefile is based upon a different area of civil rights law.

Anne Hathaway's Oscar dress raises questions
Actress said she didn't know what she wearing until 3 hours before event
Anne Hathaway's floor-length Prada halter gown was cut to show off the Best supporting Actress winner's back ... but depending on what angle you caught Hathaway, you might've thought you saw a bit more.
Not only is there a gif of her "side boob," courtesy of BuzzFeed, floating around, but some on Twitter also said they noticed Hathaway's nipples showing through the fabric.
TMZ dubbed the dress "Les Nipplerables," as others weighed in:
"Anne Hathaway's stylist should be fired for not forcing her to wear pasties! HELLO NIPPLES!!!" celebrity blogger Perez Hilton posted to his Twitter account.
"OH MY GOD ANNE HATHAWAY'S NIPPLES. Hathaway : Nipples :: Angelina : Leg," said New York Magazine's Maureen O'Connor.
"I spy with my little eye a little bit of Anne Hathaway nip," added Smallzy.
Speaking with E!'s Ryan Seacrest on the red carpet, Hathaway admitted that she "didn't know what I was wearing until three hours ago."

Good product
Service and delivery comments:
Srevice is good and freindly people who are there to give you what you need. They were very knowlogible about the product and installayion tips
Best Uses
Looks awsome seems to have a very hard finish Time will tell
Best Uses
This flooring was 5 star ,until they changed the production of it. The original was in several different sizes. Now it comes in just 4 foot sections, and for some reason impossible to connect flooring without damaging it. The original flooring was so easy to connect.
Best Uses
Very nice looking product but not moisture friendly. Had water sitting on it for a little time and it soaked and bubbled up. My 9 month old son dropped plastic toy and it dented and chipped floor. It was easy to install and looks great. Nice color and real looking
Best Uses
This product is holding up to 2 large, high energy dogs and two small ones. Water sits on top. easy to clean. Not one Scratch. And I look for them every day. The dogs and the grandchildren are the reason I choose this product. I highly recommend it to all parents whether they have two or four legged children.
Everyone thinks it's real hardwood. They can't believe it is laminate. You can't find anything close to it's durablity or beauty in the box stores. I plan on using it in the 3 remaining bedrooms.
If you are concerned with cold floors, I recommend the Bellwood padding. Actually, it's the only one with a R factor that is compatible with the 1/2" attached pad. It was so worth the money. The house is warm and quiet.
This product improved our quality of life!

UNIGINE Corp. has released a new, enhanced version 4.0 of Heaven Benchmark, the GPU intensive benchmark that gained massive popularity among overclockers and hardware manufacturers for hammering their graphics cards to the limits. This powerful tool can be effectively used to determine the stability of a GPU under extremely stressful conditions, as well as check the cooling system's potential under maximum heat output. It provides completely unbiased results and generates true in-game rendering workloads across all platforms, such as Windows, Linux and Mac OS X. Heaven Benchmark immerses a user into a magical steampunk world of shiny brass, wood and gears. Nested on flying islands, a tiny village with its cozy, sun-heated cobblestone streets, an elaborately crafted dirigible above the expanse of fluffy clouds, and a majestic dragon on the central square gives a true sense of adventure. An interactive experience with fly-by and walk-through modes allows for exploring all corners of this world powered by the cutting-edge UNIGINE Engine that leverages the most advanced capabilities of graphics APIs and turns this benchmark into a visual masterpiece. DOWNLOAD: Unigine Heaven 4.0 for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux Key Features Extreme hardware stability testing Accurate results due to 100% GPU-bound benchmarking Support for DirectX 9, DirectX 11 and OpenGL 4.0 Multi-platform support for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X Comprehensive use of hardware tessellation, with adjustable settings Cinematic and interactive fly/walk-through camera modes Dynamic sky with volumetric clouds and tweakable day-night cycle Real-time global illumination and screen-space ambient occlusion Support for multi-monitor configurations and different stereo 3D modes What's New in Heaven 4.0 Benchmarking presets for convenient comparison of results GPU temperature and clock monitoring Drastic improvement of SSDO Stars at nighttime Improvement of lens flare New, improved version of UNIGINE Engine under the hood Detection of multiple GPUs Anti-aliasing support on Mac OS X Enhancement of automation scripts in Pro version New Advanced edition (see details below) Russian and Chinese localization Heaven Benchmark comes in three editions: Basic (available for free), Advanced and Pro, each aimed to meet the needs of different users. For more information, visit this page.
They added more graphical glitches instead of fixing the old ones. It's like they've never used their own program for stress testing despite offering a loop feature.
Render: Direct3D11 Mode: 1920x1067 8xAA windowed Preset Custom Quality Ultra Tessellation: Extreme Unigine Heaven Benchmark 4.0 FPS: 37.2 Score: 937 Min FPS: 20.9 Max FPS: 80.6
Tested @ 2560x1600 res, Tesslation=Extreme, Quality=High and Anti-Aliasing=x8. Single 7970. All stock: Two 7970's. All stock: Three 7970's. All stock: So with two 7970's the scaling is great, with three not so much (66% usage).
Well they definitely beefed this thing up beyond Unigine 3.0... maxed out 1440p 4xAA I get 89.6 fps in 3.0 but only 58 fps in 4.0. They did make the lights prettier, though I'm hoping that Valley isn't a total slideshow. (edit) Anyone know why they picked the pathetic resolution of 1600x900 as the "extreme" resolution? There's not much extreme about 1600x900...
We need a reference for those tests. Everybody is testing randomly here. To bad there are no predefined profiles... Or are they??
My guess would be on the resolution because most people could run 1600x900 even with laptops for comparison's sake. That is the reason I made my run without any tweaks to the benchmark, but it seems everyone else has made adjustments so far in their extreme runs...no way to make any comparison that way.
There are but when I have a 1440p monitor why the hell would I want to run a benchmark at a puny 1600x900 (the "extreme" preset resolution)? I thumb my nose at things which encourage this current trend of resolution stagnation to continue. Benchmarks should be about pushing technology, not pretending it's 2005.
The entire idea is to be able to compare different hardware...without a standard there can be no comparison. No one said you could not do as you please, but without a standard you have nothing to compare with except yourself.
Thought i'd update my heaven 4.0 run here..I just checked my ccc and it was on "override application settings" and forced to 2x tessellation for that first run I posted lol so that explains why the screen shot looked kinda lackluster in the heaven run. Changed both tessellation mode and maximum tessellation levels to "use application settings" now and here is the new extreme run. Managed to get a much higher minimum fps this time round?
My fps was awful..what am i doing wrong?!? 2500k @4.6..gtx 680 stock,occed by 225 on the core and 550 on the ram done not much!

Good filler.
The watcher was really short....
And Tracey got more screentime than usual.

That Dr. Quackenbooger guy really creeped me out. They should've just ate the Magikarp. I'd like to see his reaction then.
I have claimed the yummy, creamy Vanillish!
My Black and White team!
This episode aired yesterday on Boomerang. It was a really funny episode. Dr. Quakenpoker was full of funny one liners. Tracey wasn't so boring in this episode either.
The way Ash called Bulbasaur out to battle was really cool, since his hands were full he just knocked the pokeball out of his pocket and kicked it around like a hacky sack towards team rocket. Then Bulbasaur hit James in the face with a Vine Whip.
Very funny episode.
I've officially claimed Swampert!
Nice episode, Pokemon Watcher is a good idea to find and follow fish pokemon like Magicarp.
James had problems with his head... Very funny.^_^
This episode was ok... "Quakenpoker" was a really funny name, he was very funny as well. Nice to see how devoted he was to studying the Magikarp and how they evolve and climp up the waterfall. It did move too slow for me personally though...
Yes, yes this was a cute episode I suppose. Tracey getting an episode before the end of the Orange Islands was good for him I guess. Magikarp aren't really the most interesting Pokémon though so yeah. it was boring even at the end of the episode.

This was a good episode, focusing on Magikarp. It's sad that our favourite salesman, the Magikarp Salesman didn't appear.... Good that Tracey got an episode dedicated to him. It's an enjoyable filler, 8/10.

A Magikarp found in the pants of a kid named Quakenpoker... how very odd. This episode was okay. I don't see why Ash and co assumed it is perfectly safe being in the middle of the ocean. The most impressive thing about the episode was probably the way he brought out Bulbasaur's Pokéball.
I'm a HUGE Groucho Marx fan and Pokemon was absolutely the last place I expected to see him. Amazing!
The 'Magikarp in my pajamas' gag is one of Groucho's most famous bits, when he played a big-game hunter in 'Animal Crackers'. The original line was 'elephant' not Magikarp.
This episode had some pretty funny parts, like when James got that Magikarp stuck on his head. The name "Quackenpoker" itself was pretty amusing too. I also liked how Team Rocket was stranded on that tiny island at the end surrounded by Gyarados - I was expecting something like that to happen after seeing lots of the Magikarp evolve.
Made on Pokecharms.com
Another good episode elaborating about both Magikarp and Gyarados. In a way, I really liked this character of the day. He was intelligent and he explained on a interesting way. A good filler episode in my opinion.
And this episodes adds more to Magikarp and Gyarados' origin. The fish traveling upstream to transform into a dragon. I wish the Gyarados would have started to fly after they evolved. It would have shown their flying capabilities.

I've noticed something interesting after watching the episode again. When Team Rocket is sent away in that water cyclone, I initially attributed this to the Magikarp evolving into Gyrados. However, the Magikarp don't actually evolve into their Gyrados forms until after Team Rocket's been swept away. For me it shows that Magikarps are no pushovers when they don't want to be.

ZIMBABWE has emerged the most powerful and influential country in the United Nations World Tourism Organisation after landing three crucial positions at the ongoing 20th session of the UNWTO general assembly here. Zimbabwe has been unanimously voted to the chairmanship of the UNWTO African Commission and was elected into the highest decision-making body, the Executive Council, and also took over the co-presidency of the organisation with Zambia.
The United Nations world tourism body said Sunday it has chosen Zimbabwe to lead its Commission for Africa, the continent-wide group for tourism development for the next two years. The U.N. World Tourism Organization said that conflict-troubled Mali also joins the African tourism commission. Zimbabwe and Zambia are co-hosting the 155-nation tourism organization's summit, held every two years, at the resort of Victoria Falls on their common border.
UNITED Nations World Tourism Organisation General Assembly delegates yesterday toured Gushungo Dairy Farm in Mazowe to get an appreciation of the work being done by the First Family. Mrs Nisrine Rifai, the wife of UNWTO secretary-general Mr Taleb Rifai led the delegation, which also toured the Grace Mugabe Children's Home and primary school in the same area.
China's top tourism official has pledged to promote African destinations against the backdrop of the country's growing middle-class travelers with a penchant for overseas tours. Shao Qiwei, head of China's National Tourism Administration, told Xinhua in an interview on the sidelines of a global tourism meeting held at Zimbabwe's resort town of Victoria Falls that Africa's well-preserved wildlife, among other attractions, is worth a visit for any Chinese tourist who can afford it.
The United Nations World Tourism Organisation does not regret allowing Zimbabwe to co-host the 20th session of the General Assembly with Zambia and detractors will be put to shame by the record breaking success of the event, UNWTO secretary-general Mr Taleb Rifai said yesterday.
ZIMBABWE'S tourism and hospitality industry has the potential to employ nearly 1,2 million people riding on a peaceful post-July 31 period, a government official has said. The country is set to hold watershed harmonised elections on July 31 to replace the inclusive government formed four years ago.
Victoria Falls Town is to host a carnival on 23 August to welcome the delegates to the UNWTO. Karikoga Kaseke, the Zimbabwe Tourism Authority (ZTA) Chief Executive said that US$300,000 had been allocated for the event.
Air Zimbabwe has been re-admitted to the International Air Transport Association's International Operational Safety Audit registry after complying with the aviation body's minimum standards.
This means the national airline now meets IATA's operational safety, efficient and quality benchmarks observed by operators worldwide.
Transport, Communications and Infrastructural Development Minister Nicholas Goche yesterday announced the re-admission of Air Zimbabwe to the IOSA registry through a statement read on his behalf by his ministry's secretary Mr Munesu Munodawafa at a press conference.
"We are, therefore, proud to announce the airline's re-registration following the international air transport association operational safety audit (IOSA) in December 2012," Minister Goche said.
He said IOSA was an internationally recognised and accepted evaluation system designed to assess the operational and management and control systems of all member airlines. Goche said the re-registration was crucial for attracting a strategic partner.
Fast facts about IATA: | |
IATA | International Air Transport Association |
Formation | 19th April 1945, Havana, Cuba |
Membership | Approx. 243 airlines (84% of scheduled international air traffic) |
Purpose / focus | Represent, lead, and serve the airline industry |
Fact | Present in over 150 countries through 101 offices |
Air Zimbabwe first registered with IATA | 1981 |
"As an IOSA registered operator, Air Zimbabwe retains its IATA membership, meets part of the requirements to attract strategic partners with world class airlines, meets high safety standards while realising notable cost savings and operational efficiency," he said.
IATA's IOSA safety and operational audits are carried out bi-annually.
The re-registration followed an IOSA audit programme undertaken from December 17 to December 21, 2012 after which Air Zimbabwe had 12 months to close gaps that were identified.
"These findings were officially closed on May 24, 2013 which resulted in the airline being re-registered by IATA," Goche said in a statement.
The development augurs well for the rebuilding of passenger and stakeholder confidence as Air Zimbabwe resumed operations starting with regional flights to Johannesburg and selected domestic routes recently.
The government leased two 150-seater Airbus A320 planes for Air Zimbabwe to help boost the airline's fleet as it resumed operations last July. One of the aircraft has already been deployed on the Harare-Johannesburg route.
"After the resumption of its operations and the acquisition of two Airbus A320, Air Zimbabwe has signed a contract with Air France KLM Group to ensure the aircraft have the necessary support," the Air France group said in a statement.
"The contract includes access to the Air France KLM pool, with repairs at the time of flight and the provision of a Main Base Kit, located initially in Johannesburg, then in Harare.
"Along with this agreement, Air Zimbabwe has decided to entrust AFI-KLM with the maintenance and repair of the aircraft engines."
The re-registrations make Air Zimbabwe one of the 25 airlines in Sub-Saharan Africa on the IOSA registry out of a total of 34 in Africa.

(Pack of 30)
Order in the next 3 hours 45 minutes for express home delivery on Monday
The Bibs & Stuff Potette Plus Liners are disposable liners for use with the Potette Plus Folding Potty. The Liners come in a handy pack of 30 and are leak proof, airtight, super absorbent and fragranced.
I've not used these yet - but from reviews, it seemed to be a good lightweight system for carrying a potty around. The bags are eyewateringly expensive though!
Superb product. Superb service. I have used both product and Kiddicare on previous occasions and would not hesitate to recommend either. Can't rate highly enough!!
The travel potty and bags were so useful when potty training my daughter. These bags are easy and quick to fit to the travel potty. Once used they are easy and quick to remove. Best of all you don't get your hands dirty. The one big downside is that they add to the landfill. However since they mean my daughter can go to the toilet whenever and wherever we are they are fab.
This is a great invention! I bought Potette when my first child was potty training & kept it ready for my second child. I am so glad the liners are still available! We use it anywhere - long journeys, out shopping, at the beach, at the park. You just tie up the bag when finished & dispose of it in a bin, so convenient. It also means you are not restricted when potty training, you can go anywhere.
These liners work with the Potette Plus portable potty. Very easy to use, contains everything and easy to throw away. Just been camping for one week with our potty training 2 year old and this potty/liners saved us many embarrassing situations whilst out and about!

EASTBOURNE, England, October 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
A detailed publication entitled "Treatment of diffuse systemic sclerosis with hyperimmune caprine serum (AIMSPRO): a phase II double-blind placebo-controlled trial" written and submitted by Professor Christopher Denton, Doctor Niamh Quillinan, Professor Syed Haq, Doctor Deirdre McIntosh and Jeffrey Vernes has been published in the globally renowned Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases journal, the EULAR journal.
The results from the trial showed statistical and near statistical significant changes in key clinical outcomes, such as a reduction in the Modified Rodnan Skin Score, mRSS (p=0.041); a responder rate of 50% (AIMSPRO) vs. 10% (placebo) (p<0.061); improved Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) (p=0.029); Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) (p=0.079) and in the Neuropathic Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) (p=0.046). In addition,no treatment-related serious adverse were recorded during the entire duration of the trial.
Professor Syed Haq, Daval's Chief Medical & Scientific Director commented, "this is the first time that AIMSPRO has appeared in an international peer-reviewed journal focusing on a complex heterogenous connective tissue disorder and it is extremely satisfying to witness that AIMSPRO is receiving this exposure,as a well-defined clinical trial, by healthcare professionals and researchers in rheumatic diseases."
Professor Denton was the principal investigator and Doctor Quillinan was the clinical research fellow on the recently completed Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Phase II Clinical Study evaluating the safety and tolerability of AIMSPRO given as a monotherapy to patients with Late Stage Established Diffuse Cutaneous Systemic Sclerosis (diffuse scleroderma). They are both from the University College London Medical School, Centre for Rheumatology and Connective Tissue Diseases at the Royal Free hospital in London. Professor Haq, Jeffrey Vernes and Doctor McIntosh are with Daval International, who were the sponsors of the trial.

One argument that I tackled in an earlier post was the fine tuning argument. I thought about it for a while, and I thought of one of my interests: Astronomy. I realized that there are thousands of galaxies and millions of stars and planets out there. So are we really "fine tuned"? Why us and not any one of the other millions of planets? Why haven't we found life on other planets? For those of you who do not know much about cosmology or astronomy there is a certain Goldilocks zone that a…

Heidi Bond was desperate. No matter how much she cajoled or threatened her daughter, the 9-year-old refused to finish their workout.
Used to this struggle, Bond pushed harder, encouraging Breanna to complete the four-mile loop. She had already lost weight, Bond reminded her. She couldn't give up now, or her hard work would be for nothing.
Breanna ignored her mother and turned for home.
Watching the 173-pound girl walk away, Bond's heart sank. She realized this was a fight she wasn't going to win in a war she couldn't afford to lose.
Reality check
As reports of the childhood obesity epidemic hit home, parents around the country are struggling to figure out how to help their kids lose weight.
About 12.5 million children 2 to 19 are obese, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That extra weight can lead to serious health problems, including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and psychosocial issues such as peer discrimination or poor self-esteem.
"Parents are in a really tough position," says Dr. Elissa Jelalian, a staff psychologist at the Weight Control and Diabetes Research Center who focuses on the development of intervention programs for children. "They feel they are not doing a good job as parents if their child is struggling with weight. ... Parents see the potential health consequences, but kids aren't in tune with that."
Bond understands that frustration well. As a baby, she says, Breanna had a hearty appetite, and her parents joked that she would grow up to be like her dad -- a 6-foot, 200-pound man.
By the time she was a year old, Breanna weighed close to 25 pounds. Bond asked their pediatrician whether she should be concerned, but he assured her Breanna would grow into the weight.
Over the next few years, Breanna packed on the pounds. In preschool, she was bigger than any of the other kids in her class.
Her parents hired a nutritionist, but the healthy habits didn't stick. They brought their daughter to a psychologist and an endocrinologist; both said Breanna's test results were normal. Breanna joined a dance class and a swim team, but her weight continued to climb.
"Kids teased me," Breanna says. "They called me chubby and fatty-o."
"It was horrible for me and my husband," Bond remembers. "We felt helpless. We honestly didn't know what to do."
Their family was not one for a lot of fast food, soda or sugary treats. Bond cooked dinner most nights: fried chicken, roast beef, enchiladas. But the large meals, combined with a lack of physical activity and the junk food Breanna ate at school, continued to create a big problem.
"Imagine going through life and carrying around seven sacks of potatoes," Bond says. "That's what it's like for these overweight children. It's taxing on their hearts, organs. It's hurting them tremendously. And society isn't helping."
At 9, Breanna weighed 186 pounds.
Red light, green light
Conversations about a child's weight can be fraught with psychological landmines, says Dr. Denise Wilfley, director of the Weight Management & Eating Disorders Program at Washington University School of Medicine.
"Mainly what we suggest is actually having the whole family take on a healthier lifestyle -- for everybody to eat as well as possible, as nutritiously as possible, so the overweight child is not singled out," she says.
Wilfley encourages parents in her programs to "walk the walk" and be a role model for their children. She talks about food as energy for kids' bodies -- eating better will help them think harder, jump higher, play more.
Her families try to follow the traffic light diet, with green-light foods such as vegetables, yellow-light foods such as lean protein and red-light foods such as sweets or simple carbohydrates.
"We focus a lot on not defining self-worth by the number on the scale," she says. "The best way to prevent eating disorders is having very healthy eating patterns."
Bond realized that in order to get Breanna to exercise regularly, they would had to make it a family activity. The Bonds started walking four miles, four days a week, on a trail near their home in Clovis, Calif.
"It was the hardest thing I've ever had to do," Bond says. "There were times where she refused to move." But in the end, "a little tough love to save the rest of their life" was worth it, she says.

O's Minor Leaguer suspended 50 games
Baltimore Orioles Minor League catcher Michael Ohlman has received a 50-game suspension after a second violation of the Minor League Drug Prevention and Treatment Program for a drug of abuse.
The suspension of Ohlman, who was on the disabled list for the Single-A Delmarva Shorebirds, will be effective immediately. Ohlman is the second catcher in the Orioles organization to be suspended for violating the League's drug prevention program, with Brian Ward serving a 50-game suspension that started at the beginning of the season.
Ohlman was drafted by the Orioles in the 11th round of the 2009 draft out of Lakewood Ranch (Fla.) High School and the 21-year-old spent the 2011 season with Delmarva. He suffered a right shoulder injury this spring from a car accident and was expected to miss substantial time with the injury.

Ryan Gosling Death Hoax
April 18, 2012 by Staff
Filed under Breaking News
Comments Off
Ryan Gosling Death Hoax, Hey girl, you can stop sobbing uncontrollably, because Ryan Gosling is alive and well. As if The Notebook isn't enough of a tear-jerker already, on Tuesday the disreputable Global Associated News reported that the Canadian heartthrob fell 50 feet to his death while filming a movie in the Kitzbühel Alps.
Gosling is just the latest victim of the Internet's most boring trend: The celebrity death hoax. It seems we're now hearing about celebrities' unexpected and totally bogus deaths at a rate of about two per week, and in the past few months death rumors have circulated about Justin Bieber, Bon Jovi, Snooki, Usher, Chris Brown, Reba McEntire, Patrick Dempsey, Paul McCartney, Ja Rule, and even Boo, the "world's cutest dog."
As fans of April Fool's Day pranks and every online meme from LOLCats to Rickrolling, we find this prank totally puzzling. The reports themselves are never amusing. It's not like we're told that Bieber was trampled by a pack of lovesick fans, or that Snooki OD'ed on a chemical in self-tanner. All the hoaxes prove is that information spreads fast on Facebook and Twitter, which we already knew, and the prank is over as soon as a celebrity says, "Hey, I'm not dead."

Broad band looks at e-government
Hempstead County aims to be the most connected region. For several months, the group was larger initiative in the transition to Hempstead County. Dave Phillips of the University of Arkansas Community College at Hope, and Wesley Woodard with the Economic Development Council, were key in the organization of the district generally.
The goal according to Phillips, is gaining partners to support the use of powerful Internet connection to improve business and communication through out the county. Other related community workshops held in May were telemedicine and e-commerce seminars.
Janet Grard, is the general manager of information, with the Arkansas.gov website. She was the guest speaker on e-goverment.
Grard explained how vital it is to have what she called, a portal.
Grard stressed that many people want to go to website and find out everything they can about a city, such as what it offers in the way of commerce, specific locations, or attractions.
A county may apply for a $2,000 grant to get help with their website, according to Grard.
Sandra May, Hempstead county tax assessor, attended for Hempstead County. The site can set up and allow taxes to be paid online. Hunting and fishing licenses can be bought on-line. Traffic tickets and much city business can be done on-line. Court records can be put on line and accessed.
She said Arkansas.gov has state of the art security to protect against hacking into classified information on-line.
She stressed also that a website should make things very easy to access. They should have a "common look and feel," she said.
When the conference came to a close, Woodard began making plans to organize a meeting with county officials. The meeting will be discuss the e-goverment opportunities for Hempstead County.

IM IMBryanSmith | Good players don't see the chess pieces as just bits of wood or plastic. They see them as bundles of energy. A piece gathers more energy from its surroundings, from the structure of the position. In the past few weeks I have shown some examples in my endgame column where bishops defeated knights - an article about Fischer's games with this imbalance, some endgames by Carlsen which featured bi...

IM Keaton87 | IM Keaton Kiewra draws several parallels between the fourth Carlsen-Anand game and other world championship matches. What similarities did he see? This game saw more fight from both players. You'll see the action ramp up, and you'll learn a ton about the Berlin Defense and even a smidge about defending rook and pawn endgames. History lessons, opening lessons, endgame lessons, all in one! Read More

They come in, get the job done, and they make sure you're happy with it.

New York Geek Girls, Inc. has been handling my computers' maintenance, upgrades, etc. for a little over a year and I've been very pleased with their response time and effectiveness. They do the job right the first time. I'd recommend them to other small businesses.
I am a sole proprietor of an educational consulting company. My previous service solutions can't hold a candle to NYGG and their knowledge. They have engendered a sense of calm – even when the computer gods are against me. They are fair, direct, help empower me for the future and have always done the work with a smile, sense of humor and a very fair price.

Faced with setting up a new computer system, I'm very lucky — and happy — I chose NY Geek Girls. They arrived on time, set up my system in an efficient and thorough manner, added all the bells & whistles I wanted and many they suggested, explained key points, and patiently answered all my questions. I highly recommend their services.
Ny Geek Girls is a great company! I used them about a year ago for a crashed Mac — they came to my office, worked quickly and charged very fair rates. We recently had an internet connectivity problem, and again, the service was prompt, efficient and all for a great price. I love to support small local businesses, and…NY Geek Girls make that SO easy to do!
They are GREAT! They picked up my computer, fixed it, and brought it back to me. I would use them again in a heartbeat!
This service is worth every penny. Roberta is a complete professional. She was mindful of the clock, yet took time to answer my questions and make (helpful) suggestions. Best of all, she saved me a few hundred dollars by being my advocate with Microsoft's Customer Service so that I did not have to re-purchase some of their of software. (I would never have known that was an option!) This experience could not have been better…
