Obesity and Lack of Exercise May Diminish Intellectual Function in Lupus Patients, According to Study Findings
Wednesday, February 29, 2012
Results of a new study at University of California San Francisco show that impairment of intellectual skills like memory and the ability to plan, organize and pay attention is more common among women with lupus who are obese and not physically active. Researchers call for further study to see if interventions encouraging weight loss and exercise could make a difference.

DDB Remedy picks up Novartis OTC launch
By Sara Kimberley, campaignlive.co.uk, Thursday, 21 March 2013 08:00AM
Novartis, the pharmaceutical giant, has appointed DDB Remedy to handle the international roll-out of a new over-the-counter product.
The intermediary Hestbæk Consult handled the pitch, which began in November last year.
DDB Remedy, DDB's health arm, will create a campaign for the product, dubbed "Project Cool", across Europe, the US and Asia. It is expected to target consumers and healthcare professionals.
The product is thought to relate to Novartis' US high-strength pain-relief brand Excedrin. The tablet was recalled in the US last year after a series of faulty batches were distributed.
Novartis works with a number of agencies including DraftFCB London, Wunderman Switzerland and Grey Group.

I don't know if you know this about me, but I love to read. I still remember the day when I was 7 and my parents were watching the movie Last of the Mohicans. So not my cup of tea. I didn't want to go to my room, so I picked up a book. I think it was the first book in the Girlfriends series. Maybe? Anyhow, I started reading it and got HOOKED on books.
In fact, it's my answer now when someone asks me what I like to do for fun. I read. Learning is so important and I love learning new things about my favorite subjects. And since I read pretty quickly, I get to learn a lot. Yeah, I'm a nerd like that.
So I thought I'd share some of the books I've read recently. They were so good, you should check them out, too.
Stripped Down. My friends Tony and Alisa DiLorenzo are two of my favorite podcasters. They recently released their book, Stripped Down, to give couples the 13 keys to unlocking intimacy in your marriage. It's a quick, easy read and it gives so much useful information. Ian and I have started focusing on recreational intimacy by working out and it has been great. I didn't even know it was a category. Be sure to check it out.
Sew Liberated. This book is so cool. I'm learning how to sew right now (more than just curtains) and this book has totally inspired me. I'm going to make Isaiah the felt baby book in there for Christmas and I'm hoping to make myself a new purse in my spare time (ha ha).
Handmade Home. Another sewing book full of cute crafts. I love that this book focuses on upcycling – reusing old materials. I really want to make the picnic blanket as a gift for someone and there are some easy looking projects in there that I can use for decorating the kids' room. I need a lot of help with that.
A Million Miles in a Thousand Years. Donald Miller, author of Blue Like Jazz (I still need to read this book) wrote this last year. I purchased it after signing up for his Storyline Conference in Portland. If you can, you must go to this in January. I may even go again. Anyway, this book is about living your life as if it were a screenplay for a movie. Would anyone want to watch it? Ponder this.
Write to the Bank. Dan Miller shares some excellent tips for turning your writing into income. I got an amazing deal on it and even got it in audio and e-book format in addition to 3-ring binder. (I got to spend a little time with Dan at the Storyline Conference a few weeks ago. Really nice guy.)
Herbal Medicine. I had to buy this book after I renewed it at the library, oh, six times. It's full of lots of great herbal information to help you prevent and cure all sorts of ailments. Herbal Medicine seems to be geared to the beginner, giving a good foundation of herbal knowledge. I highly recommend adding it to your library if you're a fan of natural healing.
Currently Reading
His Needs, Her Needs. Right now Ian and I are reading this book together. We are having a great time snuggling and taking turns reading aloud. It totally goes in line with what Tony and Alisa have to say and is a great resource in addition to their book. According to His Needs, Her Needs, Ian's greatest need is sex (duh) and mine is affection (yup). It's giving us both great pointers for meeting each others needs better.
On deck
Out Live Your Life. Thomas Nelson Publishers is sending me Max Lucado's latest book to review. I'll be sharing my review here and most likely recommending it.
Get Naked: Stripping Down to Money and Marriage. Derek Sisterhen does a weekly podcast at pastdueradio.com where he talks about life and finances. Great stuff. He put out an especially great show on simplifying that you should definitely listen to. His book is targeted at those married five years or less, but there's something in there for any married couple to learn from. I love the title.
The Creative Family. Yet another sewing/craft book from the author of Handmade Home. What can I say, I love projects.
What's on your reading list?

Chilly nights are expected to continue across parts of Utah.
The National Weather Service in Salt Lake City said people living in the Salt Lake and Tooele valleys, along the Wasatch Front, the Western Uinta Basin, Castle Country, the San Rafael Swell, west central Utah, Sanpete and Sevier valleys and extreme southwest Wyoming can expect to see frost overnight.

The weather service recommends people in those areas cover or bring in cold-sensitive plants, provide shelter for pets or bring them inside, disconnect hoses from faucets and drain and winterize swamp coolers.
Lows were expected to reach 43 degrees Monday night and 48 degrees Tuesday night, with a Monday high of 71 degrees in Salt Lake City; Ogden looked for Monday and Tuesday lows of 39 and 41, respectively, with a Monday high of 68; Provo lows of 40 and 43, with a high of 73; Logan lows of 29 Monday and Tuesday nights with a high of 69; Wendover lows of 40 and 42 with a high of 67; Duchesne lows of 35 and 37 with a high of 66; Cedar City lows of 46 Monday and Tuesday nights with a high of 70; St. George lows of 58 and 53 with a high of 84; and Moab lows of 40 and 48 with a high of 76.
Temperatures are expected to warm slightly before Wednesday night and Thursday, when much of the state will face a chance of rain.

Did you go mad last week trying to get ready for the new EU Cookie Laws when their enforcement deadline expired on Saturday?
I certainly did – in a mad rush on Friday evening. I've uploaded an appropriate Cookie Consent plugin (causing more cookies to be attributed to it!) and added a Cookie Compliant Disclaimer in my sidebar.
But it seems all to no avail, as hardly any websites have risen to the occasion. This isn't only due to apathy and confusion, but perhaps to defiance, as these laws are totally inappropriate for any decent website that wants to make an honest living.
So I wasn't surprised when, lo and behold, the powers that be have realised the situation and given up a last-minute compromise – albeit still a bit woolly. According to the Guardian and (more carefully) the BBC News on Sunday, the wording has been changed so website visitors will provide a valid "implied consent" if they continue to use the website, especially if there is no intrusive pop-up demanding their "informed consent".
As you see, it still isn't very clear, so I'm keeping my cookie consent pop-up and sidebar disclaimer for a while, even if it does interfere with my Google Analytics statistics. Let's hope the Cookie Law Enforcers either see sense very soon, or extend their compromise to include all non-spam related cookies so we can get on with our lives as before.
One good thing has come from this law, I'm not bombarded with annoying advertising when I update my Facebook profile and page – such a nice relief.
And if anyone wants or needs help with their Cookie Law compliance, you only need to ask the Fairy Blog Mother (by clicking on her logo to send an email) – as that's what she's there for!

Dog attacks youngster
10:30am Tuesday 1st October 2013 in News
A 10-year-old boy has been treated in hospital after he was bitten by a dog.
The child was walking in East Street, Bodicote, when he was bitten on the thigh by the brown dog, which was on a lead, at 4.30pm on Thursday.
Police said the dog's owner – a woman in her 60s – stopped to see if the boy was all right, but left the scene.
The youngster was given antibiotics at the Horton General Hospital in Banbury.

Not disabled.
Not crippled.
Those words (especially the last) are only to be used by persons with disabilities who want to reclaim them.
When disabled people, Autistic and non-autistic, say that they use identity-first language to refer to themselves, a common retort is "I don't understand why you would define yourself by your disability." To me, this doesn't make sense. I call myself disabled because I don't think my disability needs to be held at arm's length, not because I believe that I'm autism on legs.
(As with my other traits, I refer to my disability with an adjective-noun construction which is common to the English language. I would also describe myself as a long-haired woman. So far no one has come forward to demand that I instead refer to myself as "an individual with long hair," or accused me of "defining myself by my hair length.")
I'm starting to think that when people say "defining yourself by your disability" they really mean "talking about yourself in a way that reflects the belief that your disability is not detachable."
On Being a Cripple -By Nancy Mairs
*Note from the mod* I wanted to share an essay that has always meant a great deal to me, but I see it's only available in paid academic library systems now; so I bought it, and will be hosting it here. *
To escape is nothing. Not to escape is nothing.
—Louise Bogan
The other day I was thinking of writing an essay on being a cripple. I was thinking hard in one of the stalls of the women's room in my office building, as I was shoving my shirt into my jeans and tugging up my zipper. Preoccupied, I flushed, picked up my book bag, took my cane down from the hook, and unlatched the door. So many movements unbalanced me, and as I pulled the door open I fell over backward, landing fully clothed on the toilet seat with my legs splayed in front of me: the old beetle-on-its-back routine. Saturday afternoon, the building deserted, I was free to laugh aloud as I wriggled back to my feet, my voice bouncing off the yellowish tiles from all directions. Had anyone been there with me, I'd have been still and faint and hot with chagrin. I decided that it was high time to write the essay.
First, the matter of semantics. I am a cripple. I choose this word to name me. I choose from among several possibilities, the most common of which are "handicapped" and "disabled." I made the choice a number of years ago, without thinking, unaware of my motives for doing so. Even now, I'm not sure what those motives are, but I recognize that they are complex and not entirely flattering. People—crippled or not—wince at the word "cripple," as they do not at "handicapped" or "disabled." Perhaps I want them to wince. I want them to see me as a tough customer, one to whom the fates /gods /viruses have not been kind, but who can face the brutal truth of her existence squarely. As a cripple, I swagger.
Forever reblog. If I ever teach a disability studies class - which I hope to god I do someday - this will be a staple.
Just a heads up
If you say "fuck tard" or any variation of the word "retard", you're instantly unfollowed.
Just an FYI.
Let's start with that point from earlier that it DOES suck — in this society — not to have the same freedom of movement an abled person. (Although of course, here, we're already starting in with ableist assumptions, because a big portion of the reason it sucks is because society is set up for people with bodies we consider normal.) OK, so let's rephrase. Having functional legs is useful. Therefore, the state of having legs which are not as functional as other legs is not as nice as the state of having normally functional legs. (Again, there's some ableism around the concept of normal, but moving on.)
But even accepting that impairment to mobility is itself a sucky thing, MAYBE DISABLED PEOPLE DO NOT APPRECIATE BEING THE CULTURAL GO-TO FOR THINGS THAT SUCK.
And maybe — since people have been historically all-too-willing to relieve disabled people of the burden of having to live through all that suckiness — just maybe disability activists know what the fuck they're talking about when they say that the constant condensation of visible disability with "suckiness" as a metaphorical cultural touchstone has real, concrete, and evil ramifications on the lives of people with disabilities.
"Why Not to Use the Word Lame"
There's been a lot of talking about ableist words and what ones are okay to use and what ones aren't, and I always think about this post when I see that stuff. It focuses specifically on the word lame and the use of it by able-bodied people, but the point of it really works for any word that is ableist in root or has ableist connotations.
I do get weird feelings whenever the word cripple is used, and it's because, like the author says, I hate feeling like so many go-to bad things in this world come back to being disabled, because I don't think my body, or my life, is really that inherently horrible.

What's wrong with the word special? →
- Ableist Word Profile is an ongoing FWD/Forward series in which we explore ableism and the way it manifests in language usage.
- Here's what this series is about: Examining word origins, the way in which ableism is unconsciously reinforced, the power that language has.
- Here's what this series is not about: Telling people which words they can use to define their own experiences, rejecting reclamatory word usage, telling people which words they can and cannot use.
- You don't necessarily have to agree that a particular profiled word or phrase is ableist; we ask you to think about the way in which the language that we use is influenced, both historically and currently, by ableist thought.
- Please note that this post contains ableist language used for the purpose of discussion and criticism; you can get an idea from the title of the kind of ableist language that is going to be included in the discussion, and if that type of language is upsetting or triggering for you, you may want to skip this post.
Special. Special needs. Special education. Special bus. Special treatment.
Disability euphemisms are sometimes very difficult to untangle, which is why I hesitated so long to write an Ableist Word Profile on 'special' even though a number of readers requested it. Euphemisms illustrate a world where good intentions and changing language norms collide, leaving some of us in an uneasy position on the sidelines. When I wrote 'Needs Are Not Special,' for example, some people resisted the personal opinion I laid out in the post.
And I think that resistance demonstrated some interesting conflicts in the way people think about disability as well as language. Some people find 'special' a safe and comfortable word, one that takes the scary disability out of the matter. Others find it patronising, cutesy, and dehumanising. Some people think it's more friendly, making people with disabilities more approachable. Others think that it feels like an insult. Some people honestly don't care.
Some people with disabilities really don't like 'special.' Others actively identify with it and like it. And the same holds true with a lot of disability euphemisms. This makes the point about self identification above extremely important; our goal with this series in general is to think about the role of ableism in language, not to police self identification or reclamatory language use.
It is also to acknowledge and discuss the fact that the disability rights movement has been having conversations about language and disability terminology for decades, and that many nondisabled people are (perhaps willfully) unaware of these conversations. They come up with complex and tormented euphemisms to talk about disability instead of just asking a disabled person if there's an appropriate term. Many nondisabled people are shocked that many people with disabilities, including myself, view 'special' as a rank insult that is horrifying to encounter. This word makes me so angry. So angry.
Thus, when I say "special' troubles me,' I mean 'please do not use this term to refer to me, because I find it personally insulting, and I have an identity, that identity isdisabled, please respect my identity by using the word I self identify with to refer to me' and I also mean 'I would vastly prefer that you consider not using it as a default/general term, but use it for self identification if you identify with it, and to describe other people who self identify with it.' And, in return, if I know that someone identifies as special needs or with any other term involving 'special,' I will refer to that person that way, because I believe that respecting self identification is a critical thing. However, I note that I don't personally know anyone who identifies with this term; I see it being used by nondisabled friends and family, applied as a label by others and not claimed as a self identification.
I think that people, including earlier generations of disability rights activists, started using 'special' to talk about and frame disability from a place of kindness. With the goal of inclusion. To humanise disability and make it seem less frightening. Perhaps, even, to stress the need for accommodation. That was certainly the intent behind, for example, the Special Olympics. Yet, even as it was being used in this way, it was also being twisted and used in the opposite way, to insult people with disabilities. 'Special' became a double-edged sword: A respectful term for people with intellectual disabilities, for example, and an insult along the lines of 'r#tarded.' Accommodation, a basic human right, turned into 'special treatment,' a nuisance. A hassle. Something that isn't really necessary.
Euphemisms are hard to talk about because of the dual nature of their use. Yes, all ableist language is used in many different ways, including coded ways, but euphemisms feel particularly tricky to me. Because I see them used as insults and as proud self identification. I see them used by people who are struggling to find the right words to say, and not wanting to cause offense. And, sometimes, their usage reflects cultural and political differences; English is spoken in a lot of countries and it's used in a lot of ways, and a word or phrase that rings wrong to me is entirely polite and appropriate somewhere else, just as some people cannot stand the phrasing 'people with disabilities' that's used here in the United States. When you enter translation between languages, things get even more entangled.
So, here's what I, personally, don't like about special: I feel like it's an isolating word. I feel that the concept of 'special' stands in the way of full integration into society, and it also perpetuates some very harmful myths. It sets people with disabilities aside and stresses that they are different and alien. That using a wheelchair, for example, is 'special' and different and weird.
This word, to me, stresses a hierarchy of normality. And, thanks to the way that it has become twisted, it has become a singularly loaded word. Everything from ramps to quiet rooms for taking exams is considered 'special treatment' and sneered at. Nondisabled people think that we are pulling off some kind of giant scam here and that's reinforced when we talk about, for example, 'special education.'
The very idea that accommodations are 'special' stresses that they should not be expected. That they are a prize or treat. That you don't deserve them. I want to see accommodations normalised. I want to see it assumed that everyone who wants to participate in something is able to do so, that no barriers are presented by other participants or the venue. I don't want that to be 'special.' I want it to be ordinary.
Likewise, the idea of referring to human beings as 'special' is one I find troubling, not least because this term has become weaponised. I have trouble parsing whether it is being used as a celebration of identity or an insult whenever I encounter it.
What about you? Do you like or dislike 'special'? What does this word evoke for you when you encounter it?
What's wrong with saying "wheelchair-bound"? →
Welcome to Ableist Word Profile, a (probably intermittent) series in which staffers will profile various ableist words, talk about how they are used, and talk about how to stop using them. Ableism is not feminism, so it's important to talk about how to eradicate ableist language from our vocabularies. This post is marked 101, which means that the comments section is open to 101 questions and discussion. Please note that this post contains ableist language used for the purpose of discussion and criticism; you can get an idea from the title of the kind of ableist language which is going to be included in the discussion, and if that type of language is upsetting or triggering for you, you may want to skip this post.
I considered making this entire post "People don't like being told they're wheelchair bound. Stop doing it. Try 'wheelchair user' instead. Thank you."
Then I remembered how often that argument is rejected. [My favourite: But I don'tlike the terms that people with disabilities prefer, and I'm way more important!]
[I used to make really flippant comments about how no one is actually bound to their wheelchair, in order to make people think about what their words meant. Then I started reading reports of people being bound to their wheelchairs and, in extreme cases, left to die. Flippant comments are less funny after that.]
Shackling language like "wheelchair bound" is problematic because it leaves the average listener with the idea, again, that wheelchairs are a tragedy. You're stuck in one, and it's horrible, and you can't do anything or go anywhere and it's so very very sad, and isn't their life such a tragedy. Just because of being bound to that wheelchair.
The thing is, a wheelchair is the exact opposite of a tragedy. As the blogger atAccessibility Net in New Zealand put it:
I then explain: I'm not wheelchair bound. I'm not tied to the wheelchair. To use the term "wheelchair bound" implies *limitations*. When in fact, the wheelchair is a tool of freedom. It's without that wheelchair that I am seriously limited.
So each time I am told I am wheelchair bound, the implied message I get is "you're in a wheelchair, you're limited". Yeah, I'm in a wheelchair, it gives me wings!
This certainly mirrors the experience Don had when getting his sexy sexy wheelchair of awesome. He went from not being able to get out of the house more than once a week, if that, to being able to not only go out several times a week, but doing it with only limited pain. The wheelchair opened up the possibility of our enjoying this strange, hilly city we moved to. [That's us in the picture, after two days of handling the hills in historic downtown Lunenburg. Usually he uses an electric wheelchair, but we rented the manual for the trip. I vividly remember how exhausting getting up those hills were, which I think is obvious if you look at both our faces.]
Wheelchair user also reminds us who is (or should be) in charge of the chair. The person using the chair should be directing it, even if they're not able to control it themselves. [This is a great post by Wheelchair Dancer about how to push a wheelchair. Learn it, live it, love it, folks.] When we talk about people who are using wheelchairs as though they have some agency, we're reminding ourselves and others that they should have that agency.
Thirdly, wheelchair user is inclusive of people who are either full- or part-time wheelchair users. There are people who only have to use a wheelchair during high pain days, or in the winter, or after an accident, or for only six months, etc. "Wheelchair bound" always has an air of permanence to it, while wheelchair user can be both permanent or temporary, and using terms like full- or part- time wheelchair user reinforces the idea that folks who only use wheelchairs for certain activities aren't faking a disability.
I hope this much longer version of my originally-planned post still gets at my basic argument: People don't like being told they're wheelchair bound. Stop doing it. Try 'wheelchair user' instead. Thank you.
This, glorious this. My scooter gave me so much freedom.

Sasha_feather is a science fiction/fantasy fan and anti-oppression activist. She is a contributor to Access Fandom
Image: Dr. Kerry Weaver from the US television show 'ER', a white woman using a forearm crutchHas anyone ever told you that you are using something as a crutch? Have you ever used this metaphor yourself as a pejorative?
What do people mean when they use this metaphor?
The metaphor implies that crutches are universally bad and that they prevent the user from moving onto the next stage of development.
There are underlying messages within this attitude that one should rely upon the self and not be using outside help or tools to deal with problems. All of this is ableist, and falls in line with similar prejudices against medications. If you cannot support yourself, well then, there must be something morally wrong with you: this is the message of our ableist society.
Crutches are assistive technology; they are tools. While it is true that tools can sometimes cause harm, tools are not essentially bad. I think most people would agree that tools are good things. Often tools such as crutches are the products of many years of innovation, design, engineering, and human ingenuity. People with disabilities often rely on tools more than fully able-bodied people do to help us navigate and live in the world. Crutches and canes are mainly useful for helping people to walk. They have other uses too. If you watch the US television show "House", you might observe Dr. House using his cane for a variety of other creative purposes, such as a reaching device.
The metaphor of "crutch" can be reclaimed by using it as a positive metaphor. Some examples of this:
"I appreciated having creative projects to do as a crutch to help me through the grieving process."
"I handed out fliers at a recent event. They were a good crutch for helping me go up and talk to people I don't know."
If you are looking for another metaphor to use for a tool that a person uses for a short time before moving onto the next stage of development, I suggest using "training wheels".
yes yes yes this!!!!

Foreign cancer treatments offering victims false hope?
Courtny Gerrish
Courtny Gerrish reportsPhoto: Video by tmj4.com
A Wisconsin family well known in the sports arena after their son wins a gold medal in speedskating is now making a name for themselves in a new arena, one that deals with life and death.
The Fitzrandolph family knows what it's like to take on a challenge. Their son's gold medal pursuit meant a lot of sacrifices for many years. The family's new challenge? Standing behind their daughter's alternative path to healing her cancer. Casey Fitzrandolph won speedskating gold at the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics. His biggest supporters? His family. But these days the Fitzrandolphs are facing a bigger challenge.
"When I felt it, it wasn't small by any means," says Casey's sister Jessi.
She found the lump in her breast when she was 33-years-old. It was cancer. Doctors also found it in her bones.
"First I did a mastectomy on my left breast," Jessi remembers.
Then Jessi underwent chemo. However, there were complications and at stage 4, her diagnosis was not good.
"When they said you have a 50 percent chance of living 5 more years that's kind of like 'well, I don't agree with that,'" Jessi says.
Her parents, Ruthie and Jeff, didn't agree either.
"It's not good enough. There's got to be something else out there. We're going to find a way to keep this girl alive," they explain.
They turned to alternative medicine. The idea behind the approach is to heal the body so it can help fight off the disease and give patients quality of life.
"They're non toxic. They're not harmful to the body and they also reduce pain," says Jeff Fitzrandolph.
Jessi follows a number of different alternative protocols. She has a magnetic pulser that helps with the pain. An elecromedicine device emits a continuous air wave like a small radio tower. It reportedly turns cancer cells back into normal cells. However, the big push in alternative medicine is rebuilding the immune system.
"Everything before just destroyed the immune system," Jessi explains.
Jessi takes daily supplements and follows a strict diet.
"All the veggies and fruit is organic," she says.
She even drinks special water from a spring up near Rock Springs, Wisconsin.
The Fitzrandolph's have also left the country for care. They have traveled to Germany and now to a small, private hospital, International Bio Care, in Mexico. Both hospitals offer hypothermia treatments.
"When the body temperature is that high the chemo is supposed to go directly to the cancer cells," says Jessi.
And treating cancer with heat is slowly catching on in the U.S. including at Froedtert and the Medical College of Wisconsin.
"What we've found is the heat actually improves blood supply and helps us get better concentration of chemotherapy to the areas," says Dr. Kiran Turaga with Froedtert and the Medical College of Wisconsin.
As for clinics in other countries, Dr. Turaga warns patients some are just offering false hope.
"It's something we are very skeptical of because there is no data, there's no way they're able to support what they're doing."
For now, Jessi is staying on the alternative path with the belief it saves lives.
"I don't have a lot of new pain going on so that to me is a good sign," Jessi says.
Positive thinking is part of the cure but it has still been a frightening journey. Jessi is now 35 and she says if all else fails she will go back to conventional treatment. The Fitzrandolph family is writing a book about the alternative approach to healing cancer. It will most likely be out by Winter 2014.

Botswana, officially the Republic of Botswana (Tswana: Lefatshe la Botswana), is a landlocked nation in Southern Africa. Formerly the British protectorate of Bechuanaland, Botswana adopted its new name after becoming independent within the Commonwealth on September 30, 1966. It is bordered by South Africa to the south and southeast, Namibia to the west, Zambia to the north, and Zimbabwe to the northeast. The economy, closely tied to South Africa's, is dominated by mining (especially diamonds), cattle, and tourism. The country is named after its largest ethnic group, the Tswana.

And WHERE Did I Say Anything...
That's not entirely true, the problem is the terminology "The Man" does not represnt the "White Man" any more and the oppression is not necessarily the "Black Man" today it's not about color although there are still issues, but its about power ($$$). how is it posible that only 1% of the American population is make all the decisions? Aprox. 35.9 million people live below the poverty line in America, including 12.9 million children.
In these comunities the educational system is worse than schools in more affluent communties, although they are in the same school district. The drop-out rate is higher and far less students are accepted into the 4 year college/university system even though they excell in their high school standard classes and cllege prep classes. So there is a valid issue, it's just not black & White anymore.
Not my opinion just research
Not complaining, because I believe in action and working in the community to change the stats,just saying that something fishy is going on when the most powerful nation has the worse education system than any other develope nation and the poverty rate is higher.

The Atari 130-XE was first shown at the Winter Las Vegas Consumer Electronic Show in 1985 (with the Atari 130 ST), it has the same characteristics as the Atari 800 XL except its added memory (128 KB instead of 64 KB for the 800 XL). The extended memory can be used as a RAM disk, or can be accessed by bank switching routines. It was an attempt to extend the life of the old XL series, but Atari abandoned it pretty quickly to concentrate on promoting the ST series, which uses the same case style. Several XE machines were also produced : - the Atari 65-XE (which is exactly like the 800 XL, except for the rear parallel connector, which it doesn't have), - the Atari XE Game Console (1987) which is a 65-XE with an optional detachable keyboard. It was Atari Corp.'s attempt to do what they felt the 5200 should have been. - the 65-XEM (a computer with a special custom sound chip called "Amy"). Reports stated that the Amy chip sounded better than the Commodore 64's SID chip (!). This machine would never be released, - the 65-XEP (Atari's answer to the Commodore SX-64, it would never be released either), - and a modified 65XE was sold in Europe as the 800XE. The Atari 65-XE and 130-XE will have a very short life due to the 16 bit home computer competition. _________ Jesse comments: The XEGS differed from the 65XE in another way: It had the game Missile Command built in. If you held Select key down (maybe it was Start or Option) when turning on the machine, Missile Command would start.
A cousin owned one of these, with the Amy chip, and I have to agree that this chip did sound better, but not by too much.Also, there were ROM and other hardware differences which made it incompatible with some games and other software on diskette, necessitating the use of a special DOS patch.Still, this was an interesting and fun system to program and use.
I spent my youth on atari & commodore. Started on Atari 2600, had commodore 64 for a while and when that died I had an 800xl which I soon upgraded to a 130XE which I still have. Now I've been using Atari computers for 20 years straight and have a decent collection now. I still have the same 130XE and it's still used alongside its 600XL and 800 brothers. And I'd like to say Hello to any members of TAF (Toronto Atari Federation) who happen to visit this page.
The 65XEM machine did have the AMY chip, but nobody at Atari knew how to program the Amy soundchip, so the machine was abandoned before it was released. The specs of the chip were indeed very interesting. It was very powerfull, with several polyphonic channels and also the ability to play samples, without slowing down the main 6502C CPU.

Amazing! Most hospitable hosts I could ever imagine
New York
Great friendly family run business and really make you feel welcome
This is a beautiful B&B run by a wonderful family who is so happy to help. It is the perfect place to start and end the path of the gods (walk of the Gods). The breakfast is home made and delicious. We will certainly be back. Parking was convenient.
Very well received with excellent service above and beyond the call of duty. Roberto and Gerardo were excellent hosts and I can't wait to go back to Nido Verde...
Very friendly and service minded staff. The staff guided us through the city and showed key restaurants. I use booking.com three times a week, and have never felt to give feedback, but our experience at Nido Verde was so good, it deserves a feedback.
Warm and friendly approach Lovely family thats runs the place Helpfull advice and escorting when needed Good value for the money
La struttura molto carina,e semplice ottima posizione per altre escurioni sulla costiera.

The Amalfi coast is simply the most enjoyable place I know to go walking in spectacular 4000 foot mountains whilst never being far from a swim, supplies of water, wine, parmesan, fresh bread, fruit, and the company of cheerful, helpful people. This was my second visit - on the first, with my family, over a period of a week or so I grew to actually enjoy walking up and down ancient, often superbly engineered steps to villages like Pogerola, Pontone, Ravello, Atrani, Positano, returning by bus or boat, both of which are reasonably frequent - this is no place to bother with a car. This second time, I've hiked on my own, and staying at Nido Verde has been perfect. Roberto, Alessandro and Gerardo have all been really enjoyable company in spite of my limited Italian, and very helpful - details on how to get from Naples airport to Bomerano by bus (7 euros or so), weather info every day, free use of a bike - I never had any problems, but it was invaluable to know they were a phone call away. Breakfasts were great - all home-made, lots of fresh produce from the garden. Looking forward to going back - I could happily explore this coast for weeks - always new paths, incredible views, places to watch the world go by, cultivated terraces in impossible places, lemon groves, wafts of rosemary, bougainvillea. Nido Verde is two minutes away from the famous 'walk of the gods', but there are lots of other hikes of equal excitement - I especially enjoyed a day walking up to Pontone from Amalfi, along to Torre della Ziro and back, then down to Atrani for a swim.
Our stay at Nido Verde was absolutely brilliant. The family running the hotel are so friendly & went out of their way to assist us wherever they could. They even drove us to the local bus stop. The rooms are clean & comfortable & breakfast was AMAZING! We also loved being out of the tourist towns by the sea & up in the mountains. The local restaurants served amazing home made pasta/pizza at a much cheaper cost. This hotel/village was a highlight. Definitely recommended.
Nothing! If you visit Sydney, please contact us! Jenna & winston.
The location is perfect for the Footpath of the Gods hike, and the area is much less crowded than neighbouring Amalfi or Positano. It's a very relaxing place, and the staff were excellent. They can give you advice on any place you want to visit, public transport timetables, places of interest, where to eat etc...The breakfast is really good, made by an ex-pastry chef with fresh ingredients from his garden. The icing on the cake was when I had to get a bus to leave on a Sunday, and it didn't come. The next bus was 5 hours later. Instead of letting me wait around, one of the owners drove me to the train station 20 minutes away. All round great place, can't fault it.
Excelent location on Amalfy coast, aside from crowds on the hill, but not far from the seaside, close to restaurants, bus stop, little main square and to Path of Gods. In the same time quiet place. Private parking next to house. Beautiful rooms and facility with relaxing terrace for breakfast. Spacy shower and very well running WI-FI also in the room. It is family run B&B, all family members really nice and friendly and offer the best care we experienced during our round trip in Italy. Fresh local products from own garden and from village neigbours are served for breakfast. We liked our stay very much and would recommend it to all our friends. Andrea and Roman
Amazing! Most hospitable hosts I could ever imagine
Great friendly family run business and really make you feel welcome
Best place we stayed on our trip around Italy! The staff were so nice and helpful, organising last minute travel for us, great advice on what to do in Agerola and surrounds, and provided an amazing breakfast of homemade cakes, bread, proscuitto, tomatoes from their own garden and cappuccinos. The room was so clean, modern bathroom, great towels, little private patio, comfy bed and great wi fi! Close to the bus stops to both Amalfi and Naples. Great being in the mountains and experiencing true Italian way of life, we were very lucky and were in town while the Agerola World Music Festival was on! So glad now we chose to stay at Nido Verde instead of Positano or Amalfi....we did not want to leave!
We loved everything about Nido Verde!
Family owned. Roberto, his father Gerardo, and his brother Allesandro were all very friendly and accommodating. All speak English. The hotel is more like a big B&B than a hotel. It is the original family property and a small apartment building renovated into a hotel in 2007. Great garden. Good breakfast--Gerardo is a retired pastry chef and he cooks pastries and bread for the guests every day. The hotel is close to everything in the little town of Bomerano (restaurants, markets, etc). The bus stops right out front. Hiking trails, including the Trail of the Gods, start just up the street. Amalfi and Positano are only a 20 minute drive or bus ride. Bomerano is quiet and inexpensive and much less commercialized in contrast to those two glittering jet-set town on the water. Looking for peace, nature, and reasonable prices on the Amalfi Coast and Monti Lattari region? This is it. The property is even part of the EcoWorldHotel association dedicated to sustainability.
Surprisingly, I can't think of anything that was disappointing. We had planned to stay for three days and we extended it to five.
The staff was exceptionally welcoming and friendly - from Roberto to his father, Gennaro. Well located, close to the starting point of the Sentiero degli Dei trail. Breakfast was fantastic, and it included home made Sicilian cannoli (baked by Gennaro, a former baker), fresh bread from a local bakery and family-produced olive oil. Clean and comfortable rooms. Free parking included.
Roberto was charming -nothing was too much-his hospitality knew no limits Like wise his parents were charming -Geraldo showed us his garden and cooked fresh bread, lemon cake and lemon biscuits for breakfast they are situated on the Walk of the Gods so ideal for walkers lovely views of the mountains -a welcome break from Positano great restaurant for home made pizza at the back of the B'B-Roberto's recommendation
It is in town so you can hear traffic from the room
Unlike no other place we have ever stayed. Everything about our 5-night stay was perfect! The rooms are spacious, clean and ecologically friendly. The beds and pillows are comfortable and the linen is fresh. We had the best sleep here that we have had on our travels. Our room had a little balcony which was super cute. The bathrooms are clean and the towels are large and soft! The room has air-conditioning and heating if needed, and although it was cold at night and hot during the day these things were not required as the hotel has adequate ventilation with windows. The staff is so hospitable, they go out of their way to assist you in any way possible. The son and owner, Roberto, who has fantastic English and is able to assist and provide you with any information you may require, greeted us. His mother and father made the most delicious cakes for breakfast. The breakfast provided was utterly divine – everything is fresh, fresh bread from the local bakery, and other produce from their garden out the back. You are welcome to look at their garden, which is a fresh produce's lovers dream. The Wi-Fi worked fine within our room. The location in Agerola is easily accessible and away from the hustle and bustle of Positano and Amalfi. The B&B is a short walk from the bus station coming from Napoli and the bus station to Napoli is across the road. Each day, there are frequent buses to Napoli and Amalfi Coast. The bus ride is about 40 minutes however the ride is scenic and worth staying up the road. Don't let the distance to Amalfi deter you – honestly, the location is pristine. The restaurants in Agerola are traditional restaurants with local customers rather than tourists, and much cheaper too. The owner will also assist you with tours etc. He assisted us with two beautiful hikes and a day trip to Capri. Honestly, there needs to be more 'Nido Verde's' around the world because I never wanted to leave and if I could visit more often I would.
Nothing - everything was perfect!

Absolutely nothing :)
Loved our stay! The two bothers - Roberto and Alessandro - are so friendly and helpful, while being relaxed about it! Alessandro just walked us to the start of the Sentiero degli Dei through the town as not a big deal. Breakfast was great - I had 2 large pieces of the easter cake, it was so good! Rooms and bathrooms are clean, new and comfortable. And this is also a very eco-frendly! Best - free lemonchella at night!:) Thank you guys!
Very friendly and service minded staff. The staff guided us through the city and showed key restaurants. I use booking.com three times a week, and have never felt to give feedback, but our experience at Nido Verde was so good, it deserves a feedback.
I liked everything, fantastic hospitality and ideal accommodations in lovely Agerola. I really appreciated the special cakes of Gerardo, the garden and the special help with my travel arrangements, Roberto! Be sure to hike the Sentiero Degli Dei from here. I would rate this hotel 10/10 and highly recommend this to anyone looking for a place that is truly Italian spirited and far from the tourist crowd
Roberto, the owner, is absolutely wonderful - nice, helpful, friendly, and speaks English well. We asked him many questions and he gave us many good advices. The room is modern, very clean and tidy. Breakfast is made and served by Roberto's father, who is a pastry chef - the best breakfast we had! The hotel is very close to "path of the god's" route. There is parking in the hotel. STRONGLY RECOMMENDED!
Warm and friendly approach Lovely family thats runs the place Helpfull advice and escorting when needed Good value for the money
room picaso, a little noisy during the day but comfortable to handicapped and quiet at night
L'accueil chaleureux, la générosité, les conseils précieux, la gentillesse de la famille complète. À tous les matins, un petit déjeuner copieux avec un gâteau ou une tarte faite maison, pain miche aussi maison, toutes les magnifiques petites attentions avec les marrons chauds, les plats typiquement d'Agerola frites avec aubergines et poivrons servis sur une tranche de miche maison... Tout ça fait maison par le papa. Le bus directement devant la porte qui mène à Amalfi, Salerno, Positano, Naples. Le Sentier des Dieux qui débutent directement au centre de la ville, un délicieux petit resto familiale au coin de la rue, délicieux et très peu cher, tout comme un bar vin à côté avec un service impeccable et chaleureux. J'y retournerais demain, et le recommanderais à tout le monde! Un vrai coup de cœur!
Rien du tout!
Der Sohn hat das Hotel vor wenigen Jahren geschmackvoll und mit guter Qualität umgebaut - alles wirkt neu und gepflegt. Herausragend aber war die Herzlichkeit mit der sich Vater, Sohn und Bruder um uns gekümmert haben - von der Begrüßung über den flinken Umbau unseres Zimmers, das Super-Frühstück mit Spezialitäten aus eigener Produktion bis hin zur persönlichen Führung zum Einstieg in unseren Wanderweg. Alles in Allem: sehe gerne, immer wieder
La struttura molto carina,e semplice ottima posizione per altre escurioni sulla costiera.
Prima BenB van zeer vriendelijke en behulpzame familie. Een verademing vergeleken bij de drukke Amalfi-kustplaatsen.Het was de zoons geen moeite te veel om ons te helpen met wandelingen, uitjes en praktische tips. Lekker ontbijt; wel wat geluid in kamers te horen; van medegasten en van het verkeer.
Tsja.... Eigenlijk alles!!! Wat een fantastische plek om te verblijven. Zeer gastvrije familie die alles in het werk stellen om het je naar de zin te maken! Absolute aanrader. Doe ook het pad van god. Leuk met Ferry terug. Leuke restaurantjes in het dorp!!
De badkamer is erg klein maar dat is bijna overal in Italië
Mi è piaciuta la cura del dettaglio che questa famiglia ha per la sua struttura. Atmosfera rilassante lontana dal rumore dei maggiori centri turistici della zona. Immersa nel verde vicino ai più bei percosi escursionistici della costiera. Ottima colazione a base di prodotti locali. Pulizia delle camere. Ottimi consigli per passare un bel weekend, al mare o in montagna. Vista mozzafiato dalle terrazze naturali di Agerola. Fermata dell'autobus di linea davanti la struttura.
Se non siete amanti della montagna, la distanza dalle principali città turistiche in linea d'aria è poca, ma a causa delle strade strette e tortuose il tragitto x es. per Amalfi dura 25/30 min.. Consigliato spostarsi in moto/scooter o mezzi pubblici (che dimezzano le corse nei gg festivi).

It's Sunday!!
So, before I make any review about this place, let me say Happy Sunday for all of you. ^_^
May all of us have a great Sunday and better week in ahead.
It's been a while that I make any review about a place to go.
So sorry all, since I have totally overload works from my boss so I couldn't push myself to make any review about food/beverages or places like usual.
But now, I made it! Yay! Thanks God! ^_^
For today, I will make a review about Mr.Pancake restaurant @ Tunjungan Plaza 4 , Surabaya, Indonesia.
I like the decoration and interior of this place and so cozy for hangin' out.
The seats also from a well-made couch that can make you stay at this place for a long time.
But somehow, if they have event nearby (since this shop just nearby for exhibition ), it's totally annoyed me.
The sounds from exhibition are totally loud and make me not really comfortable to talk with my friend.
But beside it, this place is one of the places that I think that you can put in your list as your hangin' out place.
The decoration has vintage idea with some cute chandeliers.
And if you like to take some pictures, I think you can take this place in one of your references.
And for the foods they offer you start from sweet pancakes, savory pancakes, sandwiches, pastas, steaks, until finger snacks.
And for the beverages, they offers vary of hot coffees, cold coffees, chocolate, iced tea, sundae, assorted tea, smoothies, milk shake, soft drink, juices and some specialties (such as punch etc.).
For the prices will start from IDR.20,000 – IDR.70,000.
And like they slogan it's all about getting your day started with the right meal.
Have fun and enjoy the food all!!
God Bless! ^_^

Roasted Jerk Tofu recipe
Coconut Curry Tofu Recipe
If you are a vegetarian, you know it well--tofu disaster, slimy tofu dishes where the tofu has disintegrated into a flavorless mush. How do restaurants do it? My special method uses dry-frying and marinating, resulting in firm, flavorful tofu that leaves even meat-eaters impressed.
How to Cook Tofu Like the Pros: Dry-fry and Marinate Method
Tofu is also known as bean curd. It is very popular vegetarian and vegan food item that is made of soy milk. The dish has become very popular in most parts of the world. Since tofu has a very little flavor of its own, it is used as an ingredient in a wide variety of dishes.
