The weather is officially frigid, which means your motivation to venture out is probably decreasing along with the temps. However, rest assured that when you do decide to pound the frozen pavement, there's a light—er, flame—at the end of the tunnel. Here's where to thaw out by the fireplace (or pit!) in Philadelphia. –Chelsea Karnash
Step off the frozen sidewalks and into this warm, enchanting French creperie just off South Street, where owners Jim Caiola and David Salama have perfected the Brittany-style crepe (flat, round, light). You'll be hard pressed to choose between savory and sweet, but who says you have to? Warm up near the cozy little fireplace and order 'em both!
Old school Italian in a historic granary the Founding Fathers could have chilled in. Think exposed brick, lush draperies and one sweet working fireplace…add your current flame (as in significant other), and you'll warm up real quick.
This Old City venue might conjure up images of drunken bachelorette parties and excessive dancefloor grinding, but outside of weekend nights, Plough is actually, like, a restaurant. Grab a stool near the fireplace and de-frost—okay, a glass of booze might help, too.
Quiet, dark and creaky…in the best possible way. Enter this labyrinth of drinking, and after a few drams (because ya know, it's British) you might not be able to find your way out. And if you scored a seat near the fireplace—one of the oldest working examples in the city—you probably won't want to.
My first experience at Black Sheep was on a cold, dreary night…exactly the type I recommend this place for. Like the Dark Horse, the Black Sheep is historic, named for a farm animal and in possession of both a sweet fireplace and a cozy atmosphere that encourages its patrons to curl up in a ball and pass out. Whether that's from copious amounts of alcohol or actual exhaustion is up to you.
Whether you come in for brunch or a beer (there are over 1000 to choose from!), the fireplace at Hawthornes will keep you warm and comfy. Insider tip: Beeline it straight for the overstuffed couch by the fire (the best seat in the house!) and linger for as long as you can without being thrown out.
When it comes to style, the words 'chic' and 'Old English' don't exactly go hand-in-hand. But when you take into consideration the fact that this is a Stephen Starr place, it makes sense. Enter through the wooden door on the corner of 18th and Sansom, then settle in by the well-stoked fireplace for drinks and apps. Just don't forget to explore all of the nooks and crannies upstairs on the 2nd floor.
Farmhouse-in-the-city Standard Tap not only offers an ever-rotating menu of delish, local fare, but a blazing fireplace upstairs on the second floor. Oh, and a plethora of craft brews, a yummy brunch and killer burgers, too.
Inexpensive food, lots and lots of beers and an easy walk from the Art Museum. A low key place like Brigid's is just what you need sometimes, especially when the lovely fireplace is stoked and the temps are hovering at or below freezing.
Valley Green Inn
I cannot possibly say enough good things about this adorable, cozy spot nestled in Wissahickon Park. I just love it. Especially in winter.
My rec? Bundle up and take a hike (no, really!) through Wissahickon on a cold, snowy day, then head into the creaky, low-ceilinged Valley Green Inn for hot apple cider or hot chocolate in the Fireplace Room.
Crammed into a dirty alley that probably looks much the same as it did when McGillin's first opened in 1860 (minus the cars and dumpsters, of course), Philadelphia's oldest continuously operating tavern is still going strong—and still one of the best places to have a drink on a cold winter's night. Elbow your way as close to the fireplace as you can get; this place is always crowded.
Retro-fab Jones will have you feeling like an extra on the set of the Brady Bunch. In the winter, there's also a neat see-through fireplace to help you warm up, and with things like tater tots and mac 'n cheese on the menu, this is one Stephen Starr eatery that is surprisingly kid-friendly.
You're less than 10 miles from Center City, but you'll feel like you're in a ski lodge. Manayunk's Ugly Moose is in the weirdest location ever (up near Roxborough, behind a fence in what looks like some sort of industrial park), but there's ample (free!) parking, good food and a cozy fireplace to be had at this off-the-beaten-path dive.
Better wear your best snow boots to this one! Uber-swanky XIX is perched at the top of the Bellevue, and the views are fantastic. If you prefer loose-leaf tea and champagne to cheap beer and moules frites to mozzarella sticks, this is your place. Oh, and the fireplace is beautiful…just like everything else in this upscale establishment.
Designed in Ireland and built by Irish craftsmen, this charming corner pub in Fairmount offers fireplaces, a well-focused beer selection and pretty excellent food. An ideal neighborhood bar—if it's located in yours, consider yourself lucky.
Beer pong, board games and s'mores? Yes, please! At this newly opened outdoor beer garden in Fishtown with more than 18 heat lamps and a fire pit, you can enjoy all three in comfort—even during the coldest months of the year.
Mingle with the Penn crowd at this massive newbie to West Philly, where you'll also find five sweet fire pits on the outdoor terrace. And keep your eyes peeled for events involving s'mores and beer—a winning combo any time of year.

I enjoy seeing my thoughts take form on paper, and get a great deal of satisfaction working with the different characters as they are blended into the story. Writing also takes me back to my childhood--when things went a little slower than today's pace--especially my Holiday stories. The titles are LITTLE MOE'S CHRISTMAS, TOBOGGAN WAX, and my newest title, SANTA'S MERRY, MARY CHRISTMAS. So, if you
I grew up out in the country along with six sisters and two brothers. Stories were a big part of my life growing-up and--with that many siblings--there was never a shortage of imaginative-storytelling, book readings, or just simply being an avid listener. Everyday was a wonderful learning experience with my family, and an experience that will stay in my head and heart forever. I attended St. Mary's Elementary School in Herman, Pa., then went on to the local high school. I enlisted in the military in 1969, and was honorably discharged in 1971 from the United States Army's infantry division, and was awarded two Bronze Stars.
I've always had room in my head for daydreaming--actually a lot of room. I enjoy seeing my thoughts take form on paper, and I get a great deal of satisfaction inventing all the different characters--along with the scenes--for my books. But the best part of writing a story,to me,is working with the illustrator, and watching in amazement as the characters (in my children's stories) begin to emerge, when blended into the story.
Interests: I like camping, inventing, drawing, and especially, writing fiction stories for children and young adults.
My first novel titled, Rampage, can now be purchase in paperback and in ebook form at Amazon, B&N,Write Words Inc. www.writewordsinc.com/rampage.html or ordered through your favorite bookstore. Several of my stories are ready for download for your Amazon's Kindle, Nook reader PC and more. The link for downloading books to your PC is listed on the Amazon KDP Select site. Most of my children's titles--Under The Wishing Well, Little Moe's Christmas, Toboggan Wax, The Six Wrinkled Pickles, The Mystical Blueberry Bush, The Ghost Of Kaiser Rock, Buffalo Horn, The Painted King Roosters, Emma May's Sand Box, The Silent Song Birds, The Yellow Yellow Airplane, and The Magical Rocking Horse are in the Amazon Kindle KDP select loan program for FREE.
If you get time please take a look at my eBooks at Amazon... I think you will enjoy reading the various stories to your children--as much as I did writing them.
Below are my titles in the Amazon KDP Select program. To find a title on Amazon simply type in the ASIN number. You can also copy and paste into your browser. Most of my titles are listed in the Amazon Kindle loan program. They can also be downloaded on your PC. The link for the PC download is listed on the Amazon KDP site. I hope you enjoy my stories as much as I did writing them.
Amazon My children's stories are for readers 6/11 and read aloud for younger children.
I've been working on my newest children's story titled, ATTACK AT THE GIANT OAK TREE. It's an exciting story about animals of all kinds living in a large oak tree. Everyone loves living in the tree, but one day the entire tree starts to vibrate, and Junior Squirrel leaves his home in the tree to find out what is causing the problem.

Smiling TigerI wanted to get everyone's impression on his race. I was quite impressed. I really believe Bonde has done an exceptional training job with this horse.
Re: Smiling TigerLooks like Smiling Tiger has come back better than ever from the second surgery. Great job by Bonde and team to keep him going.
Re: Smiling TigerA "Tiger" on BHP's cushion track but will be up against it at Santa Anita if he has too much to do in the stretch with
track profile always seeming to lean towards front runners. Still a very nice horse!!!!
Re: Smiling Tiger
Crazykid never gave up on him.
Re: Smiling Tigeri singled him in the bc, ran 3rd at 20to1. bonde has had great success buying horses at the washington sale.
Re: Smiling TigerI absolutely love the Tiger, but this 100%...
He's a total synth runner. I will bet against him every single time he's on the dirt.
Re: Smiling Tigerhe ran a winning raCE IN THE BC SPRINT AT CHURCHILL A COUPLE OF YEARS ago but got in a ton of trouble
he was much the best that day. so he is just as good on dirt.
Re: Smiling TigerConnections report that Smiling Tiger could be Dubai Golden Shaheen-bound after his win the Grade 3 Underwood Stakes
http://betfairhollywoodpark.com/news/sm ... erwood-win
Re: Smiling Tiger
Let's see... 2012 Sprint (SA Dirt) - 3rd 2012 Triple Bend (Belmont) - 3rd 2012 CD Stakes (Churchill) - 5th 2011 CD Stakes (Churchill) - 6th 2011 Count Fleet (Oaklawn) - 1st 2011 San Carlos (SA) - 1st 2011 Palos Verdes (SA) - 3rd 2010 Malibu (SA) - 2nd 2010 Sprint (CD) - 3rd So, 2 for 9 on dirt... He's 7 for 14 on the synth... Don't get me wrong, I love the guy! But he don't like the dirt...
Re: Smiling Tigerbest race of his life was at oaklawn. bonde paid $40k for him at the washington sale. he bought another horse at that sale for $32k, the horse broke her maiden at bay meadows then ran in the hollywood starlet won that by 7 then the owner sold her for $450k to henry pabst. she won just over $100k before he sold her and he only had her for 4 months, so a half a million profit on $32k investment in 4 months. pretty sweet. she has turned out to be a nice broodmare too, her babies have sold for as much as $350 at keeneland september. she herself sold at keeneland last month for $85k

Just Watch Clock Locket Necklace
If you love turtles BUY IT
I love love turtles & when i bought this for my graduation it was so simple but pretty, ya know? it goes with literary everything & it became my favorite necklace ever i wear it all the time, & is very strong & sturdy! I always get compliments about it & half the time people don't even know it's a watch too so when i reveal the secret time they always ask me were i got it from & since i'm not a fan of wearing a watch it was a perfect two even my old teacher loved it!
October 14, 2012
Just Love it!
Since I wear a scarf over my hair (I'm Muslim), I can't wear short necklaces, because it will never show. The chain is long, a good length for me. At first, I didn't know how to work it, and I had thought it was broken, but after reading the instructions (really, really helps!), I was able to work it. My friends always constantly ask if they can see the time. I absolutely adore this product, it's a must-have, you love cute things!
I've dropped this necklace so many times, and it hasn't broken for me, so I would say it is pretty strong. ^____^
September 29, 2012
I love it !
The first day i got it my friend asked my if she could wear it. That is how i know i loved it.

It's an interesting contrast.
Dream. Achieve.
One comes before the other.
Republicans called the 'DREAM Act' amnesty. That it rewards law breakers and encourages more illegal immigration from Mexico.
But oddly, since they got a whopping 27% of the Hispanic vote this time around, the GOP has suddenly changed it's mind. Now they proposing a version called ACHIEVE, a bill similar to the one Florida Senator Marco Rubio began drafting this past summer.
Interestingly ACHIEVE has much in common with the failed DREAM Act of 2010.
Both require things like a medical exam, at least five years previous residency, registration with the selective service. As well as the ability to read, write and speak English and have a knowledge of U.S. history.
But that's where the similarities end.
The DREAM Act offers permanent residency as soon as two years.
ACHIEVE requires illegal immigrants who qualify be given a W1 work visa to go to college or join the military. If that is completed in six years the applicants can get a non-immigrant visa good for four years and can also be used for graduate degrees. After which they can apply for a permanent visa.
And maybe, just maybe the dream of citizenship "could follow".
Jump the hoops, no guarantees.
But is does resolve conservative concerns that these children brought here by their illegal immigrant relatives are being allowed to get ahead in line over those who "follow the rules".
It will be interesting to see if Republicans can get those in the party who advocate "self deportation" and "border fences" on board.
Is it possible Congress can finally hammer out a bipartisan agreement?
Dream. Achieve.

Archaeologists Without Borders |
Friday, 08 May 2009 23:54 |
Archaeologists Without Borders is a unique endeavor aimed at supporting archaeological education and training in economically disadvantaged countries and strengthening regional networks of students in archaeology. Through a network of training programs, WAC members in different parts of the world may travel to the host institutions of other WAC members to provide educational opportunities, and to learn from the archaeological communities they visit. This program derives from the WAC mission to foster international academic interaction, and to redress economic barriers to education about archaeology. The World Archaeological Congress provides support for students from the host country and neighbouring countries to attend lectures, workshops and other events. The host university is expected to provide accommodation, food and ground transport for the guest lecturer, and the guest lecturer is expected to provide their expertise in a voluntary capacity. Scholars from the first world are encouraged to finds outside support to cover the cost of international airfare, where possible, though WAC may also provide this support. The Archaeologists Without Borders program is being trialled in 2009, in Nigeria and Colombia. It was was run at the University of Ibadan, Nigeria 18-22 February, Professor Peter Schmidt (University of Florida, U.S.A.) presented the 9th Bassey Andah Memorial Lecture on the topic of African Archaeology and the Ancestors'. The Archaeologists Without Borders program was run at Santa Marta, Colombia, 22-29 May, in collaboration with the Fulbright Commission, the Colombian Society of Archaeology and the University of the Magdalena. A workshop "Current archaeological Theory" was led by Professor Joan Gero of the American University, Washington DC. Future developments of the program will be developed based on these trials. Participation in this program is open to WAC members only. DONATE TO 'Archaeologists Without Borders' via paypal below, e-mail or fax.

John Piper says if your church doesn't support you in missions, find out why.
John Piper explains why the historicity of Adam matters for world missions.
A missionary in China asks, "Can a missionary lie in order to do ministry in a closed or persecuted country? For example, can he sign a statement saying he agrees to obey the laws of that country when he actually plans to break some of them, particularly religious based ones?"
In Episode 146, Pastor John talks about God's plan to take his glory to the nations.

Like many others here, I am going to begin studies at 'college'. It's not really college, but the second year of my A-levels (the 6th form in the UK). It's the last year of my pre-university studies, and this time next year I will be studying mathematical engineering at Bristol or Aberdeen University.
My studies begin tomorrow, but I will still visit CC regularly in the afternoons.

As we replace old electronics with new ones we might pass them along, recycle them or simply toss them. Unfortunately, the latter two might result in illegal exportation, poisoned waterways and toxic communities.
China's e-waste problem was recently in the news. To curb this polluting trend consumers should get educated how important it to reuse and recycle electronics. Below, the EPA gives some options that are safe for "end-of-life" electronics:
- Basic Information about reducing and recycling electronics
- Where You Live provides information about regional and State eCycling programs
- Where Can I Donate or Recycle My Old Computer and Other Electronics? lists organizations and retailers with donation and recycling programs
- Statistics on the Management of Used and End-of-Life Electronics
- Regulations/Standards for handling electronic equipment
- Frequent Questions and answers about electronic waste
- Resources publications and links that offer additional information on the management of electronics

Original Rolled, Single Sided Film Poster from 2003 in EXCELLENT - NEAR MINT condition from Thailand, size: Thai 27x40/41 inch 70x105 cm - One Sheet Movie Poster 1-Sheet 1Sheet.
AKA, Also Known As, Working Title, Alternative Title, Foreign Title, Informal Title:
Unknown - N/A
Condition, Flaws, Defects, Imperfections, Details, Style, Description:
Rare poster with excellent bloody artwork! Poster has creases/wrinkling, dents and other very minor imperfections. Overall look is near mint. Whether not you'll enjoy Azumi therefore has much to do with how much on screen violence you can tolerate. Swords hack into bodies left, right and centre and it could only get more vicious if they had somehow devised a way to get the DVD to squirt blood out of the speakers, subtle this definitely is not. Being a teenager in Japan has got to suck. After sending an entire classroom to their deaths in Battle Royale, the kids are in for another going over in Azumi, this time as either ninja masters or sabre fodder civilians, but either way, the majority of them are destined for nothing more than a hastily assembled grave in the countryside with a Samurai sword as a headstone.
Plot, Summary, Synopsis, Story, Script, Novel:
In war-torn Japan, the Tokugawa Shogun, desperate to restore peace to his people, orders the assassination of the hostile warlords. A beautiful young woman is raised from birth with nine other orphans, to become an assassin. Her name is AZUMI, the ultimate assassin. Azumi begins the film as the only girl among 10 warriors who have been trained from childhood by Jiji, a gray-bearded samurai. One day, Jiji tells them they must pass a final test before they embark on the mission they have prepared for all these years. He pairs them up, and, only five survive, including Azumi. Led by Jiji, this small band descends from the mountain that is the only world they know. Their mission, we learn, is to stop a nefarious plot to unseat the current shogun, Tokugawa Ieyasu, by the supporters of Hideyori, the son of deceased warlord Toyotomi Hideyoshi. In other words, they are out to prevent a civil war of the kind that devastated their own families before Ieyasy wrested power from his rivals at the battle of Sekigahara in 1600 and imposed peace...
Starring the following cast of actors/actresses:
Aya Ueto, Shun Oguri, Hiroki Narimiya, Kenji Kohashi, Takatoshi Kaneko
Directed by Director(s):
This item is variously known to the public as a(n) Azumi poster, a(n) Azumi movie poster and a(n) Azumi film poster.

Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
As rented out his reelection campaign and also ramping up his tax the rich campaign.
My next guest says he's that's -- clamping down on the folksy doesn't like and rewarding those he does -- doesn't want oil companies bankers.
These days even the Supreme Court silly if you -- no friend you're gonna have to fend for yourself bestselling author Suzy Welch joining right now.
Susie I don't like ended July a modern day enemies list but -- a twist on explain.
Well you know I think what.
I in our recent column -- husband Jack and I were writing about leadership styles and we're looking at.
Romney's leadership style and president Obama's leadership -- if you're putting ideology aside in one of the things that we've observed.
Over the past three years is that Obama has sort of been not sort of has been compiling.
An enemy's list you know first it was bankers an oil company executives insurance company executives.
The list goes on and on Paul Ryan wealthy tax payers and congress itself now the Supreme Court and it just sort of brought back memory just sort of enemies list followed.
You know Richard Nixon and you know in Europe.
You know I think.
Neil what happens is that you've got a -- vilification.
Of groups.
By the press -- And you know it was a Richard Nixon's case you get to do individuals.
And usually -- he didn't trust that it in this case we might be.
Spreading it out the whole industries but having said that they -- what is the harm they've just hard getting.
That you know industries are groups -- saying.
-- whatever the justification.
Are are hurting this recovery or -- averted if you wanna focus on them and just to make a bigger point.
You're saying he risked doing well.
Well I think that Americans hate hate.
I think America does not -- today.
It does not like haters and of course you've got the fringe OK you've got the far right and you've got the far left right and they spew all day long.
Venom and hatred towards each other.
But your -- -- local American is not a hater.
And they want people to come together mean we are built on the melting pot -- deal that is America that we can all get along that they can.
-- -- people who are different can go to school together and can work together -- can play together.
And so what's wrong with targeting certain groups is it.
It it's separates us and giving normally eight no I -- polarizing.
So the point of that column and it.
But here's what I think there might be some -- to do believe I don't agree with that strategy but I think that.
The more you can point to others the less you can remind them to point back to you.
And -- -- you could say boy I'd love to get this under control if not for those greedy.
Or less -- -- that's what you're getting stuck to the guest -- I'd love to continued to see this health care law make progress and everyone benefit if not for those.
Clueless judges on the Supreme Court another would you always have someone to blades in -- when it comes to -- Susie I do it -- president.
Look it's a thyroid condition it's not make you know it but I think you are kidding aside that's what the president's up to.
Well that's an interesting psychological theory really did not know that you were also a psychologist along with being a yes anchor on TV absolute that was the maybe that's what it's about but then the outcome is still the same which is that what you've got -- this balkanization of America.
And you know.
Maybe America was more polarized at some part you know time it's passed the civil war -- mean there's probably some -- -- historian Newt Gingrich could point out.
When we've been more polarized but we are certainly have not been -- polarized.
In a long time and we were definitely -- polarized than before what Obama who was going to be the great you know later that was our.
That was -- great hope for him was he was gonna bring people together.
And instead what we've got is this sort of massive vilification of large swaps of American -- society an industry.
-- you have you if you conclude the industries in the sectors.
It's it's by a factor of -- thousand.
Bigger than the White House enemies list under Richard Nixon because.
RS including -- table and number one.
He did individual that he kept -- secret or at least try to -- we've got the president on the stop making it very public.
Well there is that you know at least is probably letting us know how many people -- Susie it's always -- and our best to Jack thank you very much.

Featuring beautiful weather, carnival rides, delicious barbeque food and more, the third annual Alumni Great Lawn Party was a blast for guests of all ages.
Photo gallery
A record draw of over 1,500 alumni and friends attended, many of whom brought their families to take full advantage of what the party had to offer. Guests brought folding chairs and picnic blankets to camp out on the Great Lawn, catching up with old friends as they enjoyed the warm, sunny afternoon. James McGuire '92SVC served as DJ throughout the party, playing catchy pop songs to create a lively yet relaxing atmosphere.
Kids particularly loved the bumper cars and ferris wheel, while adults seemed more keen on the all-you-can-eat barbeque buffet. Most of all, though, alumni loved showing off St. John's to their children.
"It's so exciting to show my daughter where I went to school," said Jim Littlefield '84C. "As parents, we all want to encourage our children and teach them that college is something to look forward to. When I saw how beautiful the weather was going to be today, I knew my daughter would have a blast, and she's been loving every second of it."
Littlefield was amazed to see how different campus looks from when he was a student.
"I haven't been back since they first started building the dorms," he said. "I've been getting more in touch with my St. John's friends lately, thanks mostly to Facebook. I'll be meeting up with some of them later today, and it'll be fun to check out campus with them and reminisce. The place looks beautiful."
The Kiddie Zone, a new feature of this year's Great Lawn Party, featured activities specifically geared for children. Members of the President's Society made arts and crafts with the kids while the Squeaky Clean Band played popular children's songs.
Janet Keller '94L appreciated the family atmosphere.
"I love how St. John's made sure that the kids would have fun at this event," she noted. "Since a lot of us are parents, entertaining our kids is oftentimes what we want to do on weekends. A party like this makes it easy for me and my old friends to get together and bring our kids along. There's something here for all of us."
Many young alumni also attended, eager to reunite with other recent graduates.
Michael Hanisco '10C, for example, met up with four of his closest St. John's friends – former classmates that he doesn't get to see as often as he'd like.
"We're from all across the East coast, so we don't have that many chances to all get together and hang out like this," Hanisco said. "It's great to have an event on campus that brings the whole gang back together. And the environment here is really lively, so it's been great."
Cara Gaver '10C, one of Hanisco's friends, agreed.
"This is my first trip back since I graduated, and it's exciting to see everybody. It's especially great to meet here, since this is where we met and where we spent so much of our young adulthood together."
Other recent graduates were amazed at all the recent campus renovations.
"I was curious to see the newer dorms and the D'Angelo Center," said Courtney D'ne Brown '07C. "With all the hype surrounding the men's basketball team this year, I've really been missing St. John's. I don't necessarily miss going to class every day, but I miss just being a part of the University and seeing my friends. There are so many people here today and such a great energy on campus, so I'm really glad I came."
Additionally, a group of 28 former Resident Assistants gathered to take a special tour of the Founders Village Townhouses, a series of apartment-style dormitories adjacent to St. Thomas More Church. Opened in 2009, this recent addition to campus was not around when most of the former RAs were students.
"I can't describe how different campus looks from when I first started here in 2001," said William Herr '05CPS, '07GEd. "They hadn't even built St. Thomas More Church back then, so I find this whole transformation really fantastic. It looks like a whole new campus."
Herr especially enjoyed reuniting with old RAs.
"These are people who I spent a lot of nights with, taking care of the residence buildings and working with students. I went from seeing them 24-7 to not seeing them for years, so that's what makes this such a fantastic experience."
As the day began to wind down, guests participated in a raffle drawing to win prizes like an XBox 360, a Nintendo Wii, a Nintendo 3DS and an iPod Nano. Meanwhile, kids made sure to get in a few last rides on their favorite attractions before they had to leave.
"I was anxious to show my wife and children how much campus has changed," said Steven Gallagher '92CBA. "My children loved all the rides and the crafts and all of that, so everyone had a ball."
He added, "It really brings your college experience full circle when you can now share it with your children. I'm glad that a fun event like this is becoming a yearly spring tradition."

Holyoke Launches Needle Exchange Program
Holyoke has become the second city in Western Massachusetts to offer needle exchange as a way to reduce infectious disease among drug users.
Holyoke has the third highest rate of HIV infection in the state, behind Springfield and Boston. And health officials say one third of new HIV cases in Holyoke come from shared drug needles -- which is almost three times the state average. Still, it's taken years of advocacy to get unanimous approval from the board of health to start a needle exchange program -- this time with support from new mayor Alex Morse and police chief James Neiswanger. While opponents of needle exchange say providing clean needles condones illegal drug use, supporters say it's been proven to reduce rates of HIV and Hepatitis c. Leslie Laurie is head of Tapestry Health, a health organization that's been contracted to run the Holyoke needle exchange program. She says she's hoping to duplicate the success of a similar program in Northampton, where 40 percent of participants go onto get drug abuse treatment.
Laurie says replacing needles also reduces the public's risk of coming across a dirty needle in a park or trash area.... Meanwhile, Western Massachusetts aids activists say they hope Holyoke's example will help build the political will to launch a needle exchange program in Springfield, which currently has the fastest-growing rate of new infections in the state.

Customizing SMF > Building Your Community and other Forum Advice
How can i monetize pictures uploaded on my forum
I would like to create an interactive SMF webforum and i expect the users to upload lots of pictures either directly or through an image host link . My question is this - how do i monetize the images that would be uploaded by the users . I would appreciate well detailed and explanatory suggestions and help. Thanks in advance.
You can check out something like britepic from adbrite they add some ad's to images.
Yes i know that but the problem is this : I want to monetize images that posted by my users on the forum so is there like a modification here on SMF that allows me to manage the content / images posted even though i am not the one who posted it
there are two internal gallery mods and three or four integrations between smf and external gallery software.
If you mean attachments or images posted within posts using the IMG tag -- no, there is no way for you to manage those, easily
You can monetize your forum images using http://www.luminate.com/ :)

School for Hackers
Here's an article that promotes the idea of hands-on learning for our young'uns. The article points out that according, at least, to researcher Peter Gray traditional education in the USA leans more toward scholarly pursuits than making things... and that that's a problem. In his own words: "in the narrowest sense of the word, meaning someone who spends their time reading and writing. Of course, most people are not scholars. We survive by doing things."
There's plenty of research cited in the article pointing towards the value of project-based hands-on education. I heartily suggest you read it.
The Triangle is alight with organizations (both non-profit and commercial) providing supplemental education to grownups that weren't offered Shop Class and likewise to our children who won't be offered the same.
Choices include Raleigh's TechShop RDU, Durham's SeeSaw Studio, the newly-founded Durham Hackerspace, WoodCraft, Student U, Citizen Schools, and, of course, long-time proponents (before it was cool!) of hands-on education from the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, and 4-H. I'm sure there are more. How about put them in the comments?
Just last night my six-year old was operating the drill press with considerable precision. Teach your children to make things. Our kids are more capable than you might think.

The question of what the president and administration knew about the nature of the attacks on the consulate in Benghazi has become a huge political controversy. In addition, the potential nomination of Susan Rice to be secretary of state has been endangered by the controversy.
U.S. intelligence told President Barack Obama and senior administration officials within 72 hours of the Benghazi tragedy that the attack was likely carried out by local militia and other armed extremists sympathetic to al-Qaida in the region, officials directly familiar with the information told the Washington Guardian on Friday.
Based on electronic intercepts and human intelligence on the ground, the early briefings after the deadly Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. consulate in Libya identified possible organizers and participants. Most were believed to be from a local Libyan militia group called Ansar al-Sharia that is sympathetic to al-Qaida, the official said, while a handful of others was linked to a direct al-Qaida affiliate in North Africa known as AQIM.
Those briefings also raised the possibility that the attackers may have been inspired both by spontaneous protests across the globe on the 11th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks and by a desire to seek vengeance for the U.S. killing last summer of a Libyan-born leader of al-Qaida named Abu Yaya al-Libi, the officials said, speaking only on condition of anonymity because they were discussing intelligence matters.
The details from the CIA and Pentagon assessments of the killing of Ambassador Chris Stephens were far more specific, more detailed and more current than the unclassified talking points that UN Ambassador Susan Rice and other officials used five days after the attack to suggest to Americans that an unruly mob angry over an anti-Islamic video was to blame, officials said.
Most of the details affirming al-Qaida links were edited or excluded from the unclassified talking points used by Rice in appearances on news programs the weekend after the attack, officials confirmed Friday. Multiple agencies were involved in excising information, doing so because it revealed sources and methods, dealt with classified intercepts or involved information that was not yet fully confirmed, the officials said.
"There were multiple agencies involved, not for political reasons, but because of intelligence concerns," one official explained.
Rice's performance on the Sunday talk shows has become a source of controversy between Congress and the White House. Lawmakers, particularly Republicans, have questioned whether the administration was trying to mislead the country by suggesting the Benghazi attack was like the spontaneous protests that had occurred elsewhere on Sept. 11, in places like Egypt.
Obama has defended Rice, and he and his top aides have insisted politics was not involved. They argue the administration's shifting story was the result of changing intelligence.
U.S. intelligence officials said Friday, however, the assessment that the tragedy was an attack by extremists with al-Qaida links was well defined within 48 to 72 hours.
"We knew this was an attack by extremists, a terror attack, and that this was more violent than the embassy protests we saw that day," one official said. "But it also had an element of spontaneous opportunity and disorganization."
The Washington Guardian was first to report just 48 hours after the attack that U.S. officials believed the attack was linked to al-Qaida sympathizers and may have evolved from spontaneous early attacks to a more organized mortar shelling.
Among the early evidence cited in the briefings to the preisdent and other senior officials were intercepts showing some of the participants were known members or supporters of Ansar al-Sharia -- the al-Qaida-sympathizing militia in Libya --and the AQIM, which is a direct affiliate of al-Qaida in northern Africa, the officials said.
The use of rocket propelled grenades and mortars also indicated the players were engaged in more than a spontaneous uprising, though ground reports also showed some of the attackers were somewhat disorganized during the early waves of attacks, the officials said.
Senior officials were briefed within 72 hours of the attack that the attackers may have staged or used a spontaneous crowd that formed outside the consulate in Benghazi to launch the first wave of attacks with gunfire and rocket-fired grenades, and that they may have been aided by sympathesizers inside Libyan security forces who were supposed to protect the consulate, the officials said. Stephens is believed to have been killed in the first attacks, most likely from smoke from related fires, officials have said.
Officials were also told a second-wave attack -- about four hours after the first evacuations of the consulate -- focused on an annex where the CIA and others had significant assets. It was more sophisticated and lethal in force, though only 11 minutes in length. Two mortars missed, while three struck the building, killing two former Navy SEALs who worked for the CIA and were trying to fend off that attack, the officials said.
The Washington Guardian was among the first to report that the Navy SEALs were not part of the official State Department embassy security team but nonetheless stepped into the breach to protect the diplomatic staff.
U.S. officials acknowledge that annex housed an American intelligence operation that was buying back weapons from Libyan rebels that had been provided by the West during the effort to overthrow Libyan dictator Moammar Ghadafi.
The president and other officials were also told during the early briefings about other attempted acts of violence that had occurred in Benghazi and around the consulate before the deadly attack. They were also told that there was at least some intelligence indicating some efforts to surveil U.S. assets in Benghazi had occurred in the days and weeks before.
Fragmentary intelligence briefed to the president also offered several possible motives for the attack, including a desire to join other Sept. 11 uprisings at embassies around the globe, and a videotaped call by al-Qaida leader Ayman al-Zawahiri for LIbyans to avenge the death of al-Libi, who was killed in a drone strike in Pakistan in June. The videotape was released early on Sept. 11, just hours before the attack on the consulate.
"By that first Friday, we already knew the al-Qaida signatures and players, specifically Ansar al-Sharia, and the senior-most leadership was briefed," one official said.
Officials also provided the Washington Guardian a detailed timeline of the CIA's response the night of Sept. 11 and morning of Sept. 12 as the waves of attacks pounded the compound and annex, showing:

But then the 3rd person in Ash's group is relegated to the sidekick role. Why is it okay for the 3rd person to stay in the sidekick role while the girl gets to be proactive? Might as well just have Ash and the girl travel together since they have reasons to take up screentime while the 3rd person is useless filler.
I say next gen have everyone in Ash's group have proactive roles, or just cut out that 3rd person who's wasting screentime that could be better used to further Ash & the girl's goals.
I think we're most likely going to get a new sidequest for the female character to do IF contests don't return.
I hope we don't get just the gym quest as the only quest or if the new girl is a sidekick character like Misty and Iris were, I just find the anime more boring if the new girl isn't a co-star like character.
The only 2 that I really felt got screwed over in BW during the battles were Oshawott and Snivy and that wasn't until the later episodes (probably after the Clay Gym Battle) where that happened. But even so, Oshawott still got plenty of screen time and did great as the comic relief. I don't see the complaints over Pikachu, Krookodile, Pignite and Scraggy. And Pokémon like Leavanny, Palpitoad, Boldore and even Unfezant weren't really supposed to be anything more than Ash's reserves and back-up team but all of them were still treated better than Muk, Kingler and Tauros were in Kanto.
Ash fan. Luffy fan. Gintoki fan-Gintama. Endou fan-Inazuma Eleven.
Multi Luffy {One Piece} and Ash {Pokemon} Shippers.
No, it's time for the female characters on this show to start doing other things.

Well as of now Iris is sorta doing nothing special! Yeah, I miss contests. And I think may's contests were a little better than Dawn's too....and it was cool how it was introduced when she was like not that into pokemon but was going to collect badges, then learned of it and that like became her thing...would have also been cool if she DID get badges like ash, but it still was cool. Dawn was pretty good too, I mean, there just was something more special about may....idk....
Hi I am back and hopefully really will be active again! LOVING XY so much but there really isn't even a point of saying I love it since it is just....arceus. Yeah. Anyways, my 3DS friend code is 0688 5572 5678 if anyone wants to battle or register me!
Friend Safari: Slugma, Growlithe, Braixen
It was more new?
IDK, I thought dawn's were better because she actually lost in the appeal round despite May like...failing (or more really "tripping") in here first one.
Maybe i have bias for Dawn, buy lol
String shot disc throw? @.@
(granted, Dawn's imagination of cutting up balls with razor leaf was probably worse...but that was an imagination. XD)
When refering to learning..."In other words, groups are not where ideas are born. Groups are where ideas are evaluated."
like what? There's no competition value in PokeMusical and PokeWoods. How much would've have enjoyed it if girls started to do Pokeathlon? Tbh I would've like Iris more if she did something else other than being sidelined.
XY better throw something (like contests) that a female character can do, because seeing a girl sidelined is pretty much lacking development. That's why I favour May and Dawn being co-stars.

The match was quick and brutal. No word on eSports partnerships yet. You can sign up for the beta through shootmania.com, and check out the debut trailer. The PC exclusive is expected to launch this year.

Commentary: Worst anti-biotech study ever
resize text | Tweet |
"Basically, the paper is garbage."
Indeed, the researchers used the Sprague-Dawley line that is bred to be highly susceptible to the development of tumors. That particular strain has a more than 80% chance of growing tumors within two years under non-experimental conditions.
"You can't draw any conclusions from that small of a population," Van Eenennaam said. "To suggest that the tumors were the result of Roundup, the GMOs or an interaction between the two is ludicrous. It's Fantasyland stuff. How was this study was even published in the first place?"
The Frankenfoods card
That's a good question, and one without a good answer. There simply aren't any data to suggest that the genetic engineering of crops poses any significant threat to human health. Even the staunchest critics of Frankenfoods can only invoke the precautionary principle to support their fevered opposition—that, and vague warnings that "we don't know about the long-term effects" of consuming genetically engineered foods.
This study won't add any heft to the activists' portfolio, that's for sure.
"I think someone who had taken a basic biology or statistics class could have rejected this paper," said Dr. Bruce Chassy, Professor Emeritus in Food Science and Human Nutrition at the University of Illinois.
Chassy noted there have been more than 200 studies comparing GM foodswith non-GM foods in at least 15 animal species, and almost every one shows no difference in animal health. He suggested that the researchers have a political agenda and noted that the primary author of the study is the leader of an anti-GM lobbying group called CRIIGEN (Committee for Research and Independent Information on Genetic Engineering).
If all that isn't damning enough, Dr. Van Eenennaam raised one final point that identifies perhaps the most egregious departure from scientific protocol.
"What really concerned me were the photos of the rats with abnormally large tumors," she said. "I realize that they were trying to prove a point, but you don't make animals suffer to do it. At our lab, once a tumor exceeds 40 millimeters, the animal is sacrificed. We take animal welfare very seriously, and for these researchers to allow the [treated] rats to grow tumors as large as the ones they photographed is absolutely appalling."
As are their methods, their conclusions and their betrayal of the most critical aspect of scientific inquiry: Its credibility.
The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Dan Murphy, a veteran food-industry journalist and commentator.

The # 1 seller in the nut family--Pistachio nuts are a popular snack, and chock-full of nutrients. California pistachios are roasted to perfection and lightly salted.
Why are Pistachios good for you?
● Did you know that pistachios are good for your heart? Pistachios can help keep your heart healthy and can help fight cell damage caused to free radicals in your body. That's one hearty nut.*
● Scientific evidence suggests that eating 1.5 ounces per day of most nuts [such as Pistachio nuts] as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol may reduce the risk of heart disease.
● Good Source of fiber (See Nutrition Information) which is important for digestive and intestinal health.
* Source: http://www.pistachiohealth.com/consumerondering
A Nutty Nutritional Powerhouse
Pistachios are not only eye-catching; they have a unique nutty and slightly sweet flavor, and are packed with natural compounds. The compact nuts contain beneficial fatty acids, fiber, protein, vitamins, minerals and numerous phytochemicals, providing a good source of potassium, copper, phosphorus and vitamin B6. Pistachios also contain the carotenoid lutein, which gives them their signature green appearance.1
In addition, research has suggested the green nut appears to promote multiple aspects of overall cardiovascular wellness.**2 Scientific evidence suggests, but does not prove, that eating 1.5 ounces per day of most nuts such as pistachios as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol may reduce the risk of heart disease. See nutrition information for fat content.
The Pistachio Principle
As if these tasty little edibles didn't have enough going for them, pistachios might also work well in a healthy weight management regimen.**3 The nut even has the distinction of prompting the "Pistachio Principle." This was developed during a small study that compared two groups of college students – one that ate shelled pistachios and another given pistachios still in their shells. Since the latter group had to remove the shells, they ate less nuts during the allotted time, yet reported feeling as satisfied as the other group, despite reduced consumption.4
Shelled or unshelled, it's clear that the pistachio is the "top nut" on the healthy snack playing field. Don't forget, pistachios are also great with other foods, whether tucked into a cool bowl of pistachio ice cream or sprinkled on a spinach salad. Given the nut's versatility, there's plenty of ways to eat well and be well by going green with pistachios!

Trey Martin doubled twice, the second one a laser-shot off the RF fence that drove-in the go-ahead run and capped a four-run 7th, as the AZL Cubs rallied to edge the AZL Indians 6-5 in Arizona League action this evening at HoHoKam Park in Mesa, AZ.
well Ervin Santana, Garza and Ubaldo don't have jobs yet, so I don't think it's that slow.
The plan for if none of their prospects turn into anything is to be a terrible team, just like every other team's plan is if none of their prospects turn into anything.
You can't be good with a farm system that produces nothing.
-when +if.
i wonder what the "plan" is if baez/soler/almora/bryant aren't 1/2 - 3/4 effective...and if none are, then what...
When Castro becomes Pedroia, Rizzo becomes Ellsbury, Samardzija becomes Lester, Raley becomes Buchholz, etc. the Cubs can do what the Red Sox did in 2013...
WSCR reporting......
Rahm telling roofies, behind closed doors, sue and your f'd. Also telling Cubs to get shovels in the ground.
Interesting part to watch out for, more night games. Cubs insiders now believing day games disadvantage to Cubs.
Very solid the previous three seasons.
you can pretty much forget about lucas simms unless the braves lose their f'n mind. tommy la stella is rather boring...average D, low-mid power...
it seems like if they try to work out something with the braves it's going to be a bunch of shot-in-the-dark arms rather than centering around a single strong arm or bat...unless the braves are stupid enough to throw in l.simms.
it's an interesting system...underwhelming, though.
braves do need pitching, but with minor/medlin/teheran up top and a.wood in the mix they're not desperate for top pitching.
a chance to pick up a sub-.700 OPS hitter...what's not to like.
this is the cubs.
it's important to tank the team for a 5th year in a row because that's a good thing.
look at BOS in 2012 after finishing 69-93. they took 2013 off to rebuild because it makes sense in their market even though they free'd up a lot of loot for 2013. they might have to wait until 2018 to re-emerge. they could win another world series one day. eyes on the prize. there's only 1 way to do it.
88 ERA+ last season?
Benoit with offers from Indians and Padres, 2/14M, Padres may be offering 3rd year option
Brave Prospects: http://www.minorleagueball.com/2013/12/4/5173214/a...
What's going on with Maholm? Why is there so little interest in him?
1/6M for Mike Morse from the Giants
Braves/Samardzija chatter
other rumoring via rotoworld
Infante asking for 4/40, Yankees offering around 3/24 allegedy (Joel Sherman)
Padres making a strong push for Joaquin Benoit (Ken Rosenthal)
Orioles confident of signing Grant Balfour (Chris Cotillo)
Twins keeping tabs on Paul Maholm (Jerry Crasnick)
Phillies sign RHP Roberto Hernandez for 1/4.5M (Cubs were allegedly in on him)
C. Barmes signs 1/2M deal with Pirates
I think the new regime--mostly Sveum--fouled up Jackson (seriously) along with Castro and Barney but I also think many people are overlooking Vitters' very respectable numbers at AAA in a season's worth of at-bats (spread over two seasons).
138 g, 552 pa, 60 xbh, 80 rbi, 22 hr, .302/.361/.513(/.873)
Vitters and Lake had injuries in each of the last two seasons and were second-tier prospects at that point anyway, so they didn't get the hands-on treatment and attempted makeovers that the other three received. Lucky for those two, and maybe for us.
