Bully Free Zone Video Contest in Albuquerque, New Mexico
Albuquerque 9/07/2011 03:52 PM GMT (TransWorldNews)
New Albuquerque business, QponABQ.com, tackles youth bullying issue
A newly-formed Albuquerque company, launched just two months ago, is taking on a timely "back-to-school' community problem. www.QponABQ.com provides registration-free online and smartphone coupons to consumers as well as local event information.
The new company is making a positive impact on area youth, even before most people know the company name. www.QponABQ.com is a major corporate supporter of an anti-bullying effort now underway, encouraging youth between 8 and 18 to create their own "Bully-Free Zone" Video.
Amos Roady, the owner of QponABQ.com says, "Yes, we're a new company but we are native New Mexicans and we want to be a driving force for good in our hometown. We've learned that bullying is an issue that affects 160,000 American students each day, who actually miss school for fear of being bullied. By encouraging kids to make a video about this issue, they also are learning how to help stop this problem."
As an online source for consumer savings at many local businesses, QponABQ.com is also offering online access to anti-bullying information, including the video contest details. To learn about the contest, visit www.QponABQ.com. More information about how to prevent bullying and the Bully-Free Zone video contest can also be found on the community Facebook page: "Don't Just Stand There: Stop Bullying Now".
Experts say students' peers play an important role in either preventing or promoting more bullying. Boys tend to partake in physical forms of bullying—punching, hitting, tripping and kicking, Girls' bullying more often involves gossip, or excluding and withdrawing friendship to manipulate others. Cyberbullying involves sending hurtful or threatening text messages and images with a computer or cell phone, in an attempt to damage the target's reputation and relationships. Being a target of bullying during adolescence is linked to higher levels of depression and anxiety in early adulthood.
Youth who make a "Bully-Free Zone" PSA or music video can submit it online by Sept. 18, 2011, at www.newmexicoscw.tv. Four winners will receive a Netbook computer and have their videos broadcast in October, National Bullying Prevention Month, on the CW, KWBQ-TV, in Albuquerque. Other prizes will be awarded to runners-up at the video Premier Night, Sept. 29th, 6pm-8pm at the Wool Warehouse in Albuquerque.
The contest is sponsored by www.QponABQ.com and Bernalillo County Parks & Rec, who has established a hotline for youth to report bullying at any county park, pool or community center. The hotline is 505-933-1113. Prizes donated to support this video contest have been received from MHS Law; Sandia Area Federal Credit Union; Sam's Club; and Dion's Pizza. Media sponsors for this effort include New Mexico's CW, My50 TV, KISS 97.3FM, and Albuquerque the Magazine. The media effort has been coordinated by Edit House Productions, LLC.

The classic--Volumes One and Two--two hardcovers in a hardcover slip case.
About Vol 1: Immediately hailed as a masterpiece when it was published in 1961, Mastering the Art of French Cooking was the first book to translate the subtleties of French cooking reliably and clearly for an American audience. It was also the first true teaching cookbook, leading its readers step-by-step through the preparation of each dish. It remains as essential today as it was then--a great teaching cookbook and the preeminent French cookbook for the American kitchen.
About Vol 2: Here is the sequel to the great cooking classic. Each of the new recipes is worked out step-by-step, with the clarity and precision that are the essence of the first volume. 5 times as many drawings as in Vol. I make the clear instructions even more so.
Julia Child, a native of California and a Smith College graduate; Simone Beck, French-born and -educated; and Louisette Bertholle, half French and half American, educated in both countries, represented an even blending of the two backgrounds and were singularly equipped to write about French cooking for Americans. Mrs. Child studied at Paris's famous Cordon Bleu, and all three authors worked under various distinguished French chefs. In 1951 they started their own cooking school in Paris, L'Ecole des Trois Gourmandes, at the same time that this book was taking shape. After that, Madame Beck published two cookbooks, Simca's Cuisine in 1972 and New Menus from Simca's Cuisine in 1979, and she continued to teach cooking in France. Madame Bertholle also had several cookery books published.

Big game, little event, and a couple of boneheads
Am toddling off the Buffalo today to set the scene for the big NFL match coming to Toronto on Sunday and got to thinking:
Are neutral site games such a big deal any more?
I mean, if you're in a major city like Toronto (where the Mayor isn't nearly as well liked as she is in Hazelville; nyah, nyah, nyah) is a visit from a team like the Bills to play a regular season game something that's important?
Can't imagine it really is any more, although Silvio at the Rogers Centre tells me here that ticket sales are up, which I would think has to do as much with the Bills not sucking as it does any sense of "event."
Back in the day, when you couldn't see basketball, baseball or hockey games every night from the comfort of your home or every game every Sunday either in some local or on that same couch, it would be a big deal when something new and exciting came to the city.
I imagine there were people who very much looked forward to, say, a visit by the Buffalo Braves to the Gardens back in the day because it finally presented a chance to see something live that you couldn't normally see.
Now, so many people don't care about the drive to Buffalo, games are so prevalent on your television every night, the sense of big time event seems to be gone.
That's not to mean it's not a good thing that they're here to play, though.
(Speaking of, we've got a little poll thing going on over at the Facebook Bureau; I know some of you are adverse to it and that's cool, there's not much there that you can't get here, but if you want to take part, we'd be glad to have you. If the 'likes' increase, the Tall Foreheads are happy and if they're happy, I'm happy and we know it's all about me).
Anyway, back to the Bills.
It's certainly not going to be like a "real" NFL game because all the ancillary stuff can't match what you can do in a parking lot at, say, Orchard Park and that's what makes it a unique experience for so many of you.
I guess the thing that makes it a bit hum-drum for some is that it's not really a one-off event. They'll be back n ext year, probably, and the year after that and they've already been here three times so the draw has to now be the game, rather than the event.
I'd imagine promoters would have a difficult time drumming up much interest if the Bills were their usual below-average selves; they've kind of been rescued by a quick start to a traditionally average team.
And that's what's making this a special game, not the event.
So it's 5:25 a.m. when I get in the car to start the journey (Niagara Falls and then Buffalo to continue to my role as Mr. Football) when I learn there's something called:
National Sleep In Day!
How could no one have told me?
Here's the deal, I'd appreciate some warning when it's:
National Take The Afternoon Off And Go Golfing Day.
Figure that's a biweekly occurrence in the spring, summer and fall, right?
National The House Buys Many Rounds Day.
In celebration of regularity.
National Don't Leave The Couch Night
Oh, wait. We celebrate that often. Never mind.
National Super Son Does Everything Around The House Day
May never happen but a guy can dream, right?
National The Leaves Magically Disappear From The Backyard Day.
See "a guy can dream, right?"
What have you got?
Man, are we getting old or what?
It was 25 years ago today – a quarter of a freaking century – that Bill Buckner let that ball go through his legs in Game 6 of the Red Sox-Mets World Series.
Now, Irregulars will know I was a bit of a Bosox fan back then, sitting quietly in Super Dad's living room watching by myself, a small bottle of champagne at the ready.
Wonder what kind of vinegar that's turned in to?
Anyway, the Buckner news – and I'd almost forgotten about the Bob Stanley wild pitch that preceded it that was almost as disgusting – got me thinking about the major gaffes we've seen in the game, not including Tony LaRussa's mental meltdown with his bullpen and phone the other night.
Fred Merkle?
Ever hear of him?
Well, it's detailed here and if Buckner's a goat, Freddy Boy might be the goat of all time.
And I know for years Buckner, a former batting champion and pretty darn good ballplayer who probably should be remembered for things other than one error, took some umbrage at the abuse he was dealt.
Well, imagine how Fred felt when he woke up one day and saw this.
Yes, newspapering may never be the same; we should find ourselves a good sports cartoonist.
First call for mail, folks.
Please do your thing here, it's much appreciated, as always.
Okay, debate time.
On this day in 1962, The Rolling Stones recorded their first demo tape (it wasn't the version we know now but you get the point).
On this day in 1965, the Beatles were invested with their MBE's (Member of the Order of the British Empire) by The Queen.
Now, I don't know about you, but as a wee tot and into my mis-spent youth years, there used to be a discussion every now and then:
Beatle fan?
Stones fan?
Not sure that then, as you can now, you could swear allegiance to both; if that was the case for Irregulars Of A Certain Vintage, which side did you come down on?
Beatles. All the way.

Atlanta Gas Light installed the city of Atlanta's first gas streetlights in 1856. Ever since, we've been a constant source of reliable, safe and clean energy -- and a constant partner to the 243 communities we serve throughout Georgia. Today, we're the eighth largest natural gas distribution utility in the United States and the largest in the Southeast.
When Georgia's natural gas market was deregulated in 1998, our business changed. We no longer sell natural gas directly to customers. Instead, we operate and maintain the gas pipes, read meters, maintain the natural gas infrastructure and distribute gas to certified marketers, who in turn sell gas to customers.

3.3 Case study 1 For much of the last century, many children who would today be regarded as being in need were caught up in the long-running child migration scheme. This scheme had been running throughout the 19th century and into the 20th century and its role was to export children to the outposts of the Empire. In all, it is estimated that 150,000 children were exported in this way (Bean and Melville, 1989). The scheme continued to run throughout the post-war years, which saw a rapid expansion of children's

Prime Minister signals end to funding for onshore wind turbines
David Cameron has indicated subsidies for turbines will be axed, potentially halting the march of wind farms in the Westcountry.
The Prime Minister, who was previously anxious to burnish his green credentials, told the Sunday Telegraph he did not want to keep the hand-outs – paid for through energy bills – for "a second longer than they're necessary".
In an interview on the eve of the Conservative Party conference in Manchester, he appeared to be responding to Ed Miliband's promise last week to freeze energy bills for 20 months if Labour sweeps to power in 2015.
Opponents claim the "renewables obligation", which subsidises wind farms and other green technology, adds £23 to each household bill.

The coalition Government has already scaled back wind farm subsidies, but the Prime Minster appeared to be going further.
He said: "What we've done in energy is try to make sure there is a balance of different technologies to give us a balanced energy supply. We do need some of these new renewable technologies and that's why there are subsidies, but we shouldn't have those for a second longer than they're necessary."
On wind farms specifically, which have divided communities across Devon, Cornwall and Somerset because they are seen as a blot on the countryside, the Prime Minister indicated offshore wind was more preferable to onshore.
He said: "Recently, I opened the London Array, the biggest offshore wind farm anywhere in the world, and it's good that Britain is leading the way in this technology. But as I say, you shouldn't keep the subsidies for any longer than is necessary."
In a round of interviews, Mr Cameron denounced Labour leader Ed Miliband's plan for an energy price freeze as "nuts", warning: "Bashing and taxing business is going to cost us jobs, set us back and make sure our economy is weaker."
And he ruled out a mansion tax if he remains Prime Minister after the 2015 general election, in what could be a major "red line" to any renewed coalition deal with the Liberal Democrats. The Prime Minister also confirmed that he is not planning post-election tax rises.
Positive economic indicators meant the Prime Minister's party was in relatively buoyant mood as it gathered under the slogan "For Hardworking People", which was displayed on every possible surface in the Manchester Central conference centre.
Defence Secretary Philip Hammond was heckled during his speech by retired army colonel Ian Brazier, who called him a disgrace for cut backs to his former regiment, the 2nd Battalion Royal Regiment Fusiliers.

Welcome to The Deep science and technology column where we cover topics from the deep sea to deep space and beyond.
Well, as I try to clean out the files, there are always lots of articles about the animal that absorbs the most research money; humans. There have been some interesting medical studies in the last few months so I thought I'd share a few.
As you have no doubt noticed, I'm attracted to the bizarre and this first story is certainly that. I've noticed that lots of people on Guam have a great fear of the dentist. I'm not sure this will help!
Humans have had cavities for a very long time. Even Lucy the Australopithecine and her friends and neighbors suffered from toothache. Today we know what causes these painful holes in the teeth: a combination of too much sugar (did you ever notice that the metal-mouth little kids always seem to be holding a soft drink or a candy bar?) and bad cleaning practices. But those causes are very subtle and although we've forgotten it, most of your ancestors knew exactly what caused cavities. Tooth worms.
The belief in tooth worms was remarkably widespread. Most people believed that the tooth worm bored a hole into the tooth and hid beneath the surface. It caused a toothache by wriggling around, and the pain subsided when the worm was resting. Although no one could tell you exactly what tooth worms looked like, they've taken many forms through the years. British folklore said the tooth worm looked like an eel. The Germans believed the maggot-like worm was red, blue and gray in color. The Chinese and Japanese also believed cavities were caused by tooth worms.
Tooth worms weren't ruled out as the cause of tooth pain until the 18th century. During the Age of Enlightenment, doctors replaced superstition with science, and the Western world gradually realized what really causes cavities. But the change didn't happen overnight — some cultures believed tooth worms to be the cause of tooth pain well into the 1900s!
Recently scientists at the University of Maryland Dental School have taken some pictures of the inside of a tooth with an electron microscope and discovered, yep you guessed it, something that looks remarkably like . . . worms. The structures are extremely tiny and they aren't worms, but what they are is still in question.
The pictures showed cylindrical objects extending or 'growing' out of the natural pores or tubules in teeth. There are more than 50,000 of these tubules in every square millimeter of a human tooth. They act as channels that run from the nerve up through the tooth and they transmit hot or cold sensitivity to the nerve.
Dentists are puzzled by the worm-like structures. "Most say 'I have no idea.' Others say they are made of bacteria, or minerals, or the branches of yeast cells (C. albicans) which have infected the tooth structure, or perhaps they are a cellular process of the dentinal tubules," says Gary Hack, DDS, associate professor in the Dental School. For the sake of humoring his students, Hack says, tongue-in-cheek, "I call them tooth worms and I'm sticking to it."
The scientists at Maryland made some observations that raise new questions. For example, they found two of the 'worms' in a single tubule, a discovery that says they probably aren't natural extensions of the tubules.
The tubules ranged from 2.6 to 3.5 micrometers in diameter (a human hair is about 40 micrometers in diameter) and the worm-like structures were smaller than the tubules they were in. Some of the 'worms' extended as far as 9 micrometers out of the tubule opening. Some of them looked hollow but several of them appeared to be solid. Other pictures revealed a comparatively thin, hollow structure emerging from a single tubule.
What are they? Nobody knows yet but I agree with Dr. Hack. I'm going to call them tooth worms!

And speaking of sugar, well, we all know what else it leads to besides cavities; it leads to weight gain. But there's something else in your diet that leads to even more weight gain and that's the consumption of animal fat. There's a new study out that will either make you very angry or make you think "Hmmmm, that doesn't surprise me at all."
New research at Oxford University in England shows that rats fed a high-fat diet have a dramatic reduction in their physical endurance and a decline in their cognitive ability after just nine days. The study was funded by the British Heart Foundation and may have implications not only for those eating lots of high-fat foods, but also athletes looking for the optimal diet for training and patients with metabolic disorders.
Rats that were switched from their standard low-fat feed to a high-fat diet showed a surprisingly quick reduction in their physical performance. After just nine days, they could only run 50 percent as far on a treadmill as those that remained on the low-fat feed.
High-fat diets, common here on Guam, are known to be harmful in the long term and lead to problems like obesity, diabetes and heart failure. They are also associated with a decline in cognitive ability over long time spans. But little attention has been paid to the effect of high-fat diets in the short term.
All 42 rats in the study were initially fed a standard feed with a low fat content of 7.5 percent. Their physical endurance was measured by how long they could run on a treadmill and their short-term or 'working' memory was measured in a maze task. Half of the rats were then switched to a high-fat diet where 55 percent of the calories came from fat. After four days of getting used to the new diet, the endurance and cognitive performance of the rats on the low- and high-fat diets was compared for another five days.
The standard feed is low in fat and very few humans (except for perhaps, vegetarians) routinely consume only 7.5 percent of their calories from fat. The high-fat diet, where 55 percent of the calories came from fat, sounds high but it's actually not extraordinarily high by human standards. A junk food diet would come close to that figure.
But here's the really interesting part. Not only did the 'fat rats' have trouble with the treadmill, they also had trouble with the maze. The number of correct decisions before making a mistake dropped from over six to an average of 5 to 5.5.
While this research was done in rats, the Oxford team is now carrying out similar studies in humans, looking at the effect of a short term high-fat diet on exercise and cognitive ability. The results will be important not only in informing athletes of the best diets to help their training routine, but also in developing ideal diets for patients with metabolic disorders such as diabetes, insulin resistance or obesity. People with such conditions can have high levels of fat in the blood and show poor exercise tolerance, some cognitive decline, and can even develop dementia over time.
Does fat equal stupid? I'll leave you to draw your own conclusions.

For some of us, that weight gain thing is offset by smoking. Keep reading!
It certainly won't be a best seller, but if people paid as much attention to The Tobacco Atlas as they do to say, Twilight, things here on old planet Earth would be a lot better. Don't believe me? Don't stop reading now!
Data found in The Tobacco Atlas, which is published by the American Cancer Society and World Lung Foundation, shows that tobacco use kills some six million people each year- more than a third of them will die from cancer- and drains $500 billion annually from global economies.
According to The Tobacco Atlas, 2.1 million cancer deaths per year will be attributable to tobacco by 2015. By 2030, 83% of these deaths will occur in low and middle-income countries. Unique among all cancer-causing agents, the danger of tobacco is completely preventable if you and your family and neighbors DO NOT SMOKE.
The global economy lost a staggering $500 billion due to tobacco use last year. These economic costs come as a result of lost productivity, misused resources, missed opportunities for taxation, and premature death.
- Because 25 percent of smokers die and many more become ill during their most productive years, income loss devastates families and communities.
- Cigarettes are the world's most widely smuggled legal consumer product. In 2006, about 600 billion smuggled cigarettes made it to the market, representing an enormous missed tax opportunity for governments, as well as a missed opportunity to prevent many people from starting to smoke and encourage others to quit.
- Tobacco replaces potential food production on almost 4 million hectares of the world's agricultural land, equal to all of the world's orange groves or banana plantations.
- In developing countries, smokers spend disproportionate sums of money relative to their incomes that could otherwise be spent on food, healthcare, and other necessities.
Burden Shift to the World's Poorest Countries
The Tobacco Atlas also showcases a horrible fact. The tobacco industry has shifted its marketing and sales efforts to countries that have less effective public health policies and fewer tobacco controls in place:
- In 2010, 72 percent of those who die from tobacco related illnesses will be in low- and middle-income countries.
- Since 1960 global tobacco production has increased three-fold in low- and middle-resource countries while halving in high-resource countries.
- In Bangladesh alone, if the average household bought food with the money normally spent on tobacco, more than 10 million people would no longer suffer from malnutrition and 350 children under age five could be saved each day.
Look at yourself. Do you smoke? How much do you spend on cigarettes a month? What could you do for your children (besides be around longer) with that money? THINK!! (Unless all those gigantiburgers are keeping you from doing it!)

LEESBURG, GA -- It's been a week of great success and disappointment for the Lee County Wrestling team.
On Saturday, the Trojans qualified, a program record, seven wrestlers for the GHSA State meet. On Tuesday, the wrestling world was told their sport didn't have a place in the Olympics.
"Wrestling to me in the Olympics is like taking one of the founding fathers off of Mount Rushmore. It makes no sense to me," Lee County coach Tom Matheny said.
"You want to go to college and wrestle. You want to go to the Olympics and wrestle…that's your dream. When you hear that, it's not good," 132 lb Trojan Alex Davis said
The IOC voted to toss wrestling off the mat for the 2020 Summer Olympics. A decision that won't affect the seven Trojans heading to state, but may hurt the high school wrestling program in the future.
"You would eventually see the dominos hit at the high school level as that dream of an Olympian is removed. Hopefully it won't be (though)," Matheny said.
There's still a chance wrestling could remain on the Olympic slate, but it will be decided by politics of the sports' governing bodies, FILA.
As for Lee County, tthey'll keep fighting like they always do. With a program record amount of state qualifiers, they're bringing a lot of heart to Macon this weekend.
"We may not be the most technical team in the whole state, but we're going to keep coming forward and forward and put the pressure on," Davis said.
"These kids are high character…a lot of integrity in these kids. I think that defines a wrestler," Coach Matheny said.

Jingle got into her copies of "50 Shades of Grey" just like everyone else. Her mind was running wild, so she had to try some things out. Hubby found a few scarves laying around and gave her just what she needed. Tying her down and pleasuring her until she begged him to stop and fuck her. But he didn't, instead he pushed her up on her knees and licked her until she came some more, and THEN he gave her what she wanted. Have your own idea for a photo or video shoot? Email us and let us know. We just might use your ideas to make something sexy!

New horse in the stable - I couldn't pull a brand new custom mountain sled with an old Jeep. So today I took advantage of the $3500 Cash for Clunkers, our Toyota employee discount and an additional incentive of $1200 for left-over 09' and turned the Grand Cherokee in.
I won't be picking the new truck up until next Monday. I am tearing all the Alpine stereo equipment out of it, putting junky tires on it, pulling my 4.6L stroker motor out, the scoops and rear spoiler and then turning her in.
The rig is a 2009 Tacoma Double-Cab short box. It has a camera of the trailer hitch, 115V outlet in the bed, bed liner, XM radio, V6 w/tow package and the TRD Sport package - in addition, it has a 3" TRD lift kit, 18" rims with off-road tires, running boards and I am having a toneau cover installed.
My only problem is going to be keeping Sheila from stealing it. She absolutely loves it.

Just like finding the right furniture and accessories for your home takes time, finding the right color palette takes time too, and often some trial and error. In a recent spate of color updates (you can read about them here, here and here), I've worked to bring a little more energy and texture into our place, but also to unify the colors throughout. Fortunately, everything was already naturally inclined to harmonize (that's really thanks to my limited color comfort zone, more than any deliberate planning), but just needed that extra nudge.
So our place went from this...
... a mish-mosh of espresso wood tones, glossy whites, beige, light blue and green...
To this...
... a much more cohesive palette of espresso wood and bright glossy white base elements, beige, robin's egg blue and sage green tones as main colors, and turquoise and lime green as the occasional accent color.
The flow throughout the whole condo has improved a ton, and now everything feels like it belongs together. And believe me... that's very novel for me!
What do you think? Is a whole house color scheme a good thing? Or should you just decorate each room as you choose, independent of the others?

The Resource Center has all the info you'll need From content to user feedback, the resource center has the information you need for every level of the entrepreneurial process.
For David Moody, giving back should be a "habit from the heart," started even before success arrives.
As an entrepreneurial company grows and adds layers of management, it can and should consider policies that address work and family issues or risk inconsistency across departments, writes the founder of a human-resources services firm.
When Arthur M. Blank talks about entrepreneurship - what it takes to create, build and grow a company - he talks about principles. And, when he talks about principles, he talks about giving back.
You know you need a mentor, but finding one is not always easy. One mentor may not meet all your mentoring needs. But before you start finding mentors, determine what kind of advice you need.
Entrepreneurs benefit from knowledgeable third-party advice provided by advisors, writes the former chairman of a family-owned diamond business. The author describes his own dealings with informal mentors and the members of his formal advisory board.
Think of your board of advisers like your old college friend and your board of directors as your parents, says the author. Their roles are very different and your relationship with each should be customized for their part of your small business.
Should women should seek out only women for mentors? Not for a second, says Joanna Krotz, author and owner of Muse2Muse Productions.
Many founders have cited the importance of access to mentoring and coaching that the peer-to-peer organizations, as well as industry groups, Chambers of Commerce, and trade associations, have provided for them.
Mentors help us confront adversity, seize opportunity, learn from mistakes, understand our strengths and grow as leaders. Learn how to be an effective mentor to other entrepreneurs. (Published Oct 2002)
Entrepreneurs loath to seek mentoring should take at least one piece of advice: try it, you'll like it, writes the author who built a business by accepting help from smarter and more experienced founders. Included is a look at the workings of her relationship with her current mentor. (Originally Published October 2002)

Rihanna Strips Down In Bed!
First Published: November 2, 2012 6:23 PM EDT Credit: Instagram
LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- While many stars spent hours getting into costume for Halloween, Rihanna decided to strip down the day after the haunted holiday!
The 24-year-old bombshell posted a picture of herself on Instagram Thursday morning in bed looking comfortable with just wearing a crown and veil over her head.
"The morning after! Hello November," Rihanna wrote with the photo.
The sexy star celebrated Halloween the night before at Greystone's Supper Club in West Hollywood.
Her on again/off again boyfriend, Chris Brown, also attended the event dressed as an Arabian terrorist with full on gear consisting of face make-up, a turban, ammunition strapped to his chest, and was even seen holding a pistol.

BALTIMORE—Ninth grade science at the Academy for Career and College Education began the usual way last fall. Victoria Matthew's students learned the difference between biotic and abiotic characteristics, then progressed to the basics of scientific method. By Thanksgiving, they were ready for climate change. That's when Matthew braced herself.
"Initially, I thought I was going to get a lot of pushback from the kids, said Matthew, a teacher at the inner-city charter school for grades six through 12. "But I didn't encounter any. I was surprised."
Like teaching evolution, efforts to improve climate science lessons have opened rifts in classrooms and school districts across the United States. Parents have pressured teachers not to teach the subject. Teachers have watered down the science. Special interests – from the Heartland Institute on the right to Facing the Future on the left – have vied to influence curriculum. Some states and districts have ignored the topic altogether. Others insist on a "balanced" debate that pits a small minority of scientists who deny human-driven climate change against the findings of nearly all earth and atmospheric scientists.
But the landscape is changing rapidly and profoundly in public schools.
Earlier this month, the education-based nonprofit Achieve, Inc. released draft "next generation science standards" for elementary, middle- and high-school classrooms. Developed from recommendations by the National Research Council, the standards represent the first comprehensive revision of U.S. science curricula in 15 years. They highlight "cross-cutting" concepts that touch various disciplines, giving students a "cumulative, coherent and usable understanding" of science and engineering. Climate change plays a key role.
Groups are stepping forward to buttress climate science in schools, pushing to ensure the topic is well-represented in new national science standards. Science and education leaders are seeking ways to broaden climate science from a narrow unit of earth science curriculum into an interdisciplinary subject taught across a variety of physical and social science classes.
The hope is that, if educators can effectively teach the nuance and complexity of climate change, the gains would bolster larger efforts to improve science education overall, aiding literacy and critical thinking.
"The reality of climate change is that it's utterly interdisciplinary," said Frank Niepold, climate education coordinator for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. "Effective climate change education ... has to have strong earth science, biology and physics components, and it has to connect to social science, history, psychology, and economics. It has to answer 'How did we get into this pickle?'"
Two problems with climate change make it a subject teachers are loath to teach: Climate change is complex – touching on economic, social, political and scientific issues to a far greater degree than most other science topics. And climate change politics put teachers square in the middle of an ideological battle.
Climate science is now taught in many districts in the earth science curriculum, mostly in middle school grades. Left there, it's doomed for failure, Niepold said. As students advance to high school, core science becomes specialized, displacing interdisciplinary, predominantly earth science-based concepts like climate change.
Statistics show that 83 percent of U.S. high school students take biology, 50 percent take chemistry, 20 percent take physics, and just 20 percent take earth science courses, said Niepold. "Even if the earth science classes were amazingly effective, we're only reaching 20 percent of all high school students."
More troubling, earth science is frequently reserved for kids not destined for college, said Niepold. Many college-bound high school students are fast-tracked through biology, chemistry, physics, and advanced placement science classes, skipping the topic. As a result, college-bound seniors can emerge from high school without much exposure to climate science.

Making noise in the blogosphere with beer.
Would there be anyone agreeable to/horribly against using IRC instead? I don't want to push 'my format' on people but it's a pain to have a second window open and remember to check it (I missed Two Beer Queers this morning). The way I see it, if people have to click a web link then which one specifically doesn't matter; on the other hand (I tend to Devil's Advocate my way out of winning arguments a lot ;)) people might be more inclined to click the link at the bottom that says 'X people are in chat now' (DA to the DA being that it doesn't mean people are actually in the chat).
I made an IRC channel, just because hey it took two seconds even if we decide not to use it, and here's the web link if people want to try it out: http://icanhaz.com/beerbloggerschat

Minister of State for Tourism & Sport Michael Ring has urged anyone interested in the Gathering Ireland 2013 to head along to one of the last three Town Hall meetings being held over the next two weeks in Mayo, Limerick, and Kerry.
Some 7,000 people have attended 52 of these meetings since they kicked off in June, including at least 5,000 people in the last two months. Some 600 new Gathering events are now being planned at community level.
"The Town Hall meetings have been a great success. Thousands of people have attended, and loads of great events and Gatherings have been identified. The whole point of these meetings was to get communities involved right across Ireland, and the response has been tremendous," Minister Ring said.
"I'm delighted that so many people took the opportunity to find out more, and to see how their families, businesses and communities can be part of it all. I would urge people everywhere to start making plans for their own Gatherings."
These meetings are an opportunity for people to find out how they can get involved in the Gathering, and see how it can benefit their own region. They have also generated loads of new ideas:
International Garda Festival, Longford – Ireland's first Ban Garda came from Co. Longford and a Gathering is being planned to invite female police officers to Longford from across the world to participate.
Dig Deep in Castlecomer – A Gathering is being organised in Castlecomer to invite miners and people whose family members worked in the Castlecomer mines to come back for a reunion in 2013 and record their stories for posterity.
Lighthouse Keepers' Reunion – Hook Lighthouse is one of the world's most famous and photographed lighthouses. A gathering of lighthouse keepers from all over the world is being planned, including a visit to the lighthouse, is being planned by Wexford communities.
Gathering Ireland Project Director Jim Miley said: 'The momentum is really building for the Gathering and the community meetings really were a big part of this. There are over 600 Gatherings already planned and so many of those great ideas came directly out of the Community meetings. I would encourage people to extend an invitation to people they know overseas to come to their gathering. Big or small, corporate or community these gatherings will benefit communities.'
The final three Gathering Ireland 2013 Town Hall meetings are taking place as follows:

Disconnect button (at game end)
*updated on 27 Aug 2009 04:10 GMT-5*
***Does not work on Regular ratio screens (4:3) right now, and only works on Widescreen (16:9). If I find the chance to plug in my old 4:3 LCD, I'll be able to release another version for it.
***Update causes the game.interface file to be reloaded after being pressed to fix a bug for now.
I created this mod because some people (like me) get really tired of having to press three buttons to leave at the end of a game to leave it. This mod adds a button that slides down from the top of the screen (where the voting panel comes down from). It's a big blue Disconnect button which makes it easy and instant to leave a game and return to the game's lobby.
For those who are wondering, when you click the button, it sends "disconnect" to the console instantly. You can achieve the same effect by pressing Ctrl+F8 during the game and typing disconnect.
The button slide down occurs when either one of the main building's health drops to zero.
***** Screenshot coming soon! *****
Note: This mod will NOT work with other game.interface mods currently, because it adds two lines of code to that file. I will add it in some of my combination mods soon.

0.2.1 (27 Aug 2009 04:10 GMT-5):
- Bug was found. After clicking the disconnect button and joining another game, the button stays up in the next game from the beginning. This is probably not the best solution, but I added a "reloadinterface game" command when you click the button, so there might be a slight ~1 second pause after clicking the button. That's normal, but let me know if your pauses are very long (5-10 second range).
0.2.0 (26 Aug 2009 10:25 GMT-5):
- It should now be fully working. It shows when the base's health is below 0.1% (so around 45hp left).
0.1.1 (25 Aug 2009 23:40 GMT-5):
- Found that initial release was broken
- Tried to fix, and it works to an extent, but still now how I want it. Consider this to still be in beta.
0.1.0 (25 Aug 2009 22:20 GMT-5):
- Initial release.
This is officially modification 025 in the Modification Repository!

:/ It's not working right now... -.-
Someone was asking for this in clan chat about an hour ago, nice.
Released an update. How I was trying to make it work is that when main building hp = 0, trigger the slide to show the button. That didn't always work. I tried doing 0.1, but that made the slide happen when the base's hp was around 460hp. Then I tried 0.000001, that didn't work at all, then I tried 0.01, didn't work either. So the released version is with 0.1 for now, but I'll try and figure it out. (by the way those numbers are in percentage, so right now, it's at 10% hp).
I'll try to find a more sure-fire way to do it, but for now this'll have to do.
I just updated it. The link is in the installation section. Sorry.

I would use this if you had it dropdown when a team concedes as well
Would be a cool future feature
Update. Read the changelog in OP.
For the 'bug' you found, can't you have the button slide back up when it's clicked?
Found that it only works on widescreen. Info in OP.
i've tried to created a similar mod based on yours and bard's buttons... it seems if i send a disconnect + reloadinterface game via one click my game crashes. is there any way to read the dump files?
did you find a way to make the button placement relative, so that the screen resolution / size doesn't matter?Code:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <package> <panel color="invisible" x="158.5h" y="-69.0h" height="2.1h" width="2.1h" name="minimap_disconnect_quit" > <image texture="/ui/nqa/nqa_button.tga"/> <button texture="/ui/elements/button_roundhl.tga" onclick="Cmd('disconnect'); Cmd('reloadinterface game');" onrightclick="Cmd('quit');" interactive="false" /> </panel> </package>
