I'm based in Kansas but I want to hire people in Texas and Florida in the cities I plan to do business in. I want to hire people as a local representative/sales rep. But I can't travel to these places or open an office. I have to hire/train/pay using the internet tools. If anyone has experience with this type of operation, your input is very valuable to me and I would appreciate it very much.

Last updated April 12, 2010
Every year in the U.S., over a million women lose their husbands and find themselves widowed. According to the U.S. Census Bureau there were 11.4 million widows in the United States at the end of 2009.1
Each widow's circumstances is very different from the next, but almost all widows experience a dimension of grief invading their lives, clouding the decision-making capabilities of even the sharpest among us. That's why one of the greatest gifts a husband can share with his wife is to pre-plan with her. While they are together, couples should pre-arrange a financial plan that will survive the husband's death. The plan will be on auto-pilot, relieving the widow of a significant amount of additional stress during her grieving period. Also a financial support team can be put in place to see to the details that need to be addressed post-death.
Grief and Early Bereavement
Widows attempting to make vital financial decisions are highly likely to find the process exponentially more challenging than it is during happier times. Grief adds an extra layer of complexity to an already challenging process. Emotions can run the gamut, from fear, loneliness and confusion to guilt, even anger. Little wonder that grief can interfere with sound decision-making!
We've identified three phases during the journey from widowhood to "selfhood" (Widow to Widow author Genevieve Davis Ginsburg's eloquent term for the process): a period of initial shock and fog; a period of reclamation; and a third, optional period of regeneration.2
Here, we focus on the first period of shock and fog. Shock is different than grief, which is defined by therapists as a specific type of cognitive dysfunction. In English, that means we can't think straight when we're grieving. Shock is not a dysfunction. In fact, it may be nature's way of helping us continue to function at a basic level, even if we don't remember anything we say or do. A widow may go about her daily activities and appear to be calm and collected, but she is often in a deep — some might say a protective — fog, with little or no lasting memory of the events.
In light of early bereavement shock, the period immediately following the loss of a spouse is usually the worst time for making financial, legal and other planning-level kinds of decisions that could impact her and her family for years to come.
And yet, decisions large and small, familiar and foreign, crowd a widow's life. Certain events and decisions must take place at this time. Clearly, funeral arrangements cannot wait. A death certificate must be obtained; family, friends, business and social associates must be contacted and various levels of government notified. Credit cards should be cancelled, joint assets re-titled, insurance policies examined, outstanding bill payments arranged, and so on.
Pre-Planning: A Pound of Prevention
Pre-planning prior to widowhood plays a critical role in mitigating many of the above challenges. In fact, the plans most effective during the shock of early widowhood and the subsequent grieving period are those crafted by the husband and wife together, well in advance:
- Pre-planning can significantly reduce stress and anxiety during crisis periods.
- It ensures that decisions are made within a relaxed timeframe, when the family can contemplate their plans in a rational mindset instead of in panicked reaction.
- The husband and wife are still a team. They can listen to and support each other in the decisions made, and share preferences under various "what if?" scenarios.
- Pre-planning can render stronger legal documents that clearly define the family's wishes.
Planning involves various types of expertise, preferably orchestrated in a coordinated manner to avoid redundant, missing or conflicting directives. A wealth advisor or seasoned financial planner can coordinate moving parts, including funeral arrangements, investment, tax and risk management, estate planning and family business operations. He or she can coordinate the efforts of a team of specialists such as funeral directors, Certified Public Accountants (CPAs), attorneys, insurance specialists and company executives.
Thus, one of the greatest gifts one spouse can leave the other is the gift of freedom from fear of financial concerns. Couples should work together in life with their trusted advisors to put a plan in place that survives beyond the point that death do they part.

The University of Maine Geology Club (originally the Rock and Hammer Club, founded in 1947) is an undergraduate run organization that plans a wide variety of activities associated with geology. Past activities include: local hiking and camping trips, a week long trip to the Colorado Plateau, as well as some non-geology related events such as bowling nights and a Department chili cookoff. The club is usually for Earth Science undergraduate students, but anyone interested in geology is welcome to join. Check out the Club Archives below to see what activities the club has done in the past, as well as information on how to join.
The following links will take you to sections below.
In recent years, the Geology Club has been on numerous fun and exciting adventures, both locally and afar. Most recently we went on a week-long trip to the Colorado Plateau. The trip had 10 students and three faculty members. While out there, the club hiked the Grand Canyon, explored several state and National Parks, including Petrified Forest National Park, and learned about the geology of the American Southwest. The year before that we also took a week-long road trip down to North Carolina. On the way, the Club did some hiking, lots of camping, went to several museums, and even got to rock climb. A smaller trip earlier in the year took the Club to Grand Manan Island, Canada to explore the geology there.
Click on the links below to see slideshows (with picture captions!) of some of the more recent trips.
If you are interested in joining the Geology Club, or are curious and would like some more information, email one of the contacts below. Anybody is welcome to join the Club, Earth Science undergraduate or not. The Geology Club is a great place to learn about the Earth around us outside of the classroom, as well as the perfect opportunity to visit some fun and exciting places!

I bought a house, and had a small leak in one of the bathroom ceilings. I got the flat roof resealed, and now have to deal with the mold. It is not much - mostly on the ceiling (a 2 foot section) where it leaked. Can you just clean and paint - or do I need to tear out the walls and ceiling? | |||
It depends on how bad the drywall material is. If it's bowed or soft, then you may as well cut out the bad and replace. If the drywall is still solid, then kill the mold, use a barrier paint like BIN and repaint the ceiling. Jaybee | ||||

Friday, October 26, 2012
SAN FRANCISCO — Mayo Clinic researchers are presenting new findings on the early treatment of child and adolescent attention deficit hyperactivity disorder this week at the American Academy of Childhood and Adolescent Psychiatry annual meeting in San Francisco. They include a method to get better input from parents and teachers of children who are being diagnosed with ADHD for the first time — allowing for more effective treatment upon the first consultation. Researchers also showed how a tool can help clinicians better diagnose and treat children who have both ADHD and oppositional defiance disorder.
Journalists: For video and audio of the researcher talking about the study, visit Mayo Clinic News Network.
In the first study, Mayo Clinic researchers required parents and teachers of children coming in for their first ADHD consultation, defined by some combination of problems such as difficulty sustaining attention, hyperactivity and impulsive behavior, consultations to complete extensive background forms and analysis. By offering incentives and stressing the importance of being prepared for the first consultation, clinicians were able to boost parent and teacher compliance from 25 to 90 percent at the Mayo Clinic Child and Adolescent ADHD Clinic. As a result, researchers have been able to better recommend treatment and therapy right off the bat.
"I'd compare treating a child with ADHD for the first time to consulting with someone who has type II diabetes — we need to measure a diabetic patient's blood sugar level before we can properly treat them," says study lead author Jyoti Bhagia, M.D., a Mayo Clinic psychiatrist. "The same goes for ADHD. The more we know about children in the early stages of treatment, the more quickly we can get them the help they need."
In the second study, Mayo Clinic researchers gave 75 patients with ADHD at the Mayo Clinic Child and Adolescent ADHD Clinic a written, subjective evaluation to test for oppositional defiance disorder, a persistent pattern of tantrums, arguing, and angry or disruptive behavior toward authority figures.
They found that the test was far better able to pick up whether the child had the disorder than an anecdotal physician diagnosis. Of the 75 patients in the study, 27 percent, or less than a third, were diagnosed with oppositional defiance disorder by their providers. After taking the subjective test, 48 percent tested positive for oppositional defiance disorder. That shows the presence of oppositional defiance disorder with ADHD is underdiagnosed and children may not be receiving the behavioral treatment they need.
Children who have both ADHD and oppositional defiance disorder benefit from a combination of medication and behavioral therapy, says Dr. Bhagia.

KDE 4: Beta Four and RC1 of the Kitt Developer Platform
The KDE development team has set itself beta goals as milestones en route to the first release candidate. An initial release candidate of the KDE 4.0 developer platform is now available along with the improved beta four.
Much work has gone into Plasma and there have been many bugfixes accompanied by much code polishing. The KDE team is looking to remove showstoppers before KDE4 enters the release candidate phase. The to-do list includes the Plasma project, which is basically complete but still open for a performance boost, along with a bug that occurs on playing short sound files.
Parallel to the beta four of of KDE 4, developers can look forward to the first release candidate of the KDE developer platform, Kitt, which contains libraries and tools for the development of KDE applications.
The Live CD with KDE4 Beta4 includes a full set of KDE 4 modules except Kdewebdev and Plasmoids.
Testers are welcome: as always, the new version is available from the project's info pages. A text by programmer Simon Tatham explains how to write useful bug reports. The beta four is referred to as version 3.94. At the same time, the KDE team from Open Suse is offering a Live CD with the latest KDE 4 version for Intel 686 platforms, while Debian is working on a similar offering.

Kelly scored -- second session on the docket today a growing royal scandal over topless photos.
Of the future queen of England Kate Middleton.
So far three gossip magazines have published pictures of prince William's wife sunbathing topless while on vacation in the south of France.
The couple's lawyers now taking legal action to prevent the spread of the images with a French court expected to rule on the challenge there tomorrow.
But one magazine says the pictures are perfectly legal since it claims the duchess was visible from the street.
The scandal evokes memories of the constant coverage a Princess Diana who died in in 1997 car crash.
And she was chased through the streets of Paris by the paparazzi in there is a question about whether there is any privacy.
For the British royals and whether there should be.
Kennedy now least -- and please call both -- Fox News legal analysts and so now we've got.
First it was a French.
Tabloid then it was picked up on by an Irish tabloid and in good -- Italy gossip magazine.
Owned by the former head Silvio Berlusconi publish a 26 page spread of the topless photos.
But the brits say it not us know we would never.
But many events at least does the royal couple have a case to actually shut this down legal.
Yes they have an excellent taste both the civil injunction which is going to be ruled on tomorrow Wednesday.
To say look you've got to stop this and other damages are gonna be even greater you stop them you pull them -- your website all of these magazines pull them off no more exposure shall we say and then there's also under the fat and and that's for system.
Liability here make it up to a year in prison.
For both the editor and the photographer because of -- -- if that's code is very specific it says if you take these pictures in a private place now ms.
Middleton was out on the street itself.
That would be different but if she's back in a private place that she apparently was.
That is illegal without consent of that person how private can it be if it was visible by a telephoto lens receipt that's exactly right that you hit right on the head it's exact.
What the reporters -- -- and it.
She is visible from the street we're not sitting there from a satellite looking down on those images.
We put a wet -- in their bedroom she is on the balcony yuk it up with a husband it's -- it's sad that it happened but frankly she's the royal.
Take precautions collected in -- glass bubble everyone wants to know what she does everyone want to know what she where she wears what -- where she goes what you want.
He talents behind -- that's not a lot under the French criminal code and I'm reading from a section to hear.
-- 22 seeded French yes in front of my friends I Harvard I am.
Also I know you don't get up -- yeah.
Picture -- a person who -- with any write the plays without consent of the -- or she's in a private place it doesn't matter that that zoom lens camera can take it from the street which is a public place.
Latest that's true so so SO under the French -- -- Mercedes at Kate Middleton went into her private -- -- -- -- And stood in front of the front window the dining room window that oversaw the side block lifted up the sheets and took off all her clothes the paparazzi could not take a photo of her.
I mean that's some pretty implausible because give -- that's what happens when you stretch it to the limit that's really what was anticipated by apple doesn't doesn't cut above the law.
Is that -- in a setting where people cannot see that's why they're -- up in the better that's why when you're out of and a in the balcony you don't take your top well it's it's this gracefully shouldn't publish it.
But those -- -- in this thing about these criminal sanction it's very unlikely if anything's gonna happen Fred.
There's going to be split the bid well I want I talk about the criminal aspect of Montserrat and hold you over after a break -- because I wanted -- -- -- how does is really to Princess Diana what we signed in France with her.
But there is a question about whether she assumed the risk -- I mean you know you -- all three of us are on TV are somewhat public figures.
There's a reason you don't -- oft -- top.
When you go out there some -- thought she was in a private place she didn't expect that this -- -- coming to -- hundreds -- -- -- way how could you not.
-- -- talk about that in a criminal possible criminal and.
Occasions I don't go away.
-- -- and Mercedes are back now so I wanna talk for what -- you -- criminal charges -- talk first about this Italian magazine chi.
Which is published the topless photos that they they piggy backed off of the initial photos that were in a French magazine but they added more because -- today she was on a terrorist B one -- the presence of publish them and see.
We did add this third one because we thought it was so great of her putting sunblock on her rear end her.
So now -- allowing have a topless photos but they've got some rear end shot that the others showed -- mean the French magazine chose not to publish.
Are they going to be in the clear because they say that it wasn't in they were the ones actually took the photos that.
I don't think so because they're only exacerbating the problem then they're moving it forward.
And again you can't put an American -- lens on this -- the French law issue not American and French slot is very different on privacy actions than it is here in America so.
In for in France this is a real legal liability for anyone who publishes those those photo net.
That same magazine Italy was the same magazine that published a picture Princess Diana moments after the car crash that killed her.
In Paris so they've got a sketchy history Mercedes which brings us to the question of criminal liability.
In France.
The reason magazine published this is because -- get it slap on the wrist money -- for publishing it's like 45000 bucks equipment up.
They're gonna make we more than that in sales of sure but it's the criminal liability -- as potentially did the photographer ended the editor could go to jail.
And it says very specifically -- really anticipates trespass.
It anticipate that the photographers actually trespassing as opposed to this objective test of whether someone -- the reasonable expectation of privacy.
And that's the US -- here that's not that doesn't exist -- -- right it really it really depends on if the public said he is that a private setting.
And were there it was there any trespassing by the the talk of the photographers -- a perfect -- I am I am well a couple of blocks away maybe 456 spots -- the their saints about a half miles of what possibly up to ten box like so those.
My way way -- is a fundamental difference so in in these two stories we're talking about princes Diana she was on a highway she was on the road.
She was -- a public -- -- drunk.
Do driver and that -- definitely look up rather not on the and the paparazzi but -- But -- that the -- -- only talking about the paparazzi and their implications in this she was not a public venue.
Princess and it is Middleton it was not to -- and a private plays that is lens camera coming in all right got to go thank you both so much.

Jon is the morning meteorologist on WNWO Today and an avid outdoorsman.
Sunny & cooler by mid-week
Scattered showers and thunderstorms possible throughout the day today - but most likely this morning and again late this afternoon. Skies will remain mostly cloudy, but we will likely see some mid-day sunshine - which will likely lead to scattered storms developing by mid to late afternoon. Muggy highs top out in the lower 80's.
Expect more of the same Tuesday as a cold front moves into the region. The front looks to move in by mid-afternoon and will offer more scattered showers and storms before moving east Tuesday night. We'll see muggy highs in the mid 80's.
By Wednesday a refreshing dome of Canadian High Pressure builds into the region and will deliver sunny skies, low humidity and highs a good ten degrees below normal - in the mid 70's. That nice weather will continue for the remainder of the work week as a gradual warm-up kicks in. By Friday highs get into the lower 80's.
So keep your umbrella handy today and tomorrow and be ready to break out the sunglasses Wednesday and beyond.
Make it a great day!

You need to do more research. His second wife never had children because she was herself a child when he died (marrying kids was a common political practice back then), and back then gay royals DID usually have children (France's gayest prince, Duke Philippe d'Orléans, managed to produce three).
Lack of children does not automatically mean gay, especially in the noble classes back then. Gay royalty were expected to lie back, think of England and produce a bunch of heirs.
Was he gay? Possibly, but your arguments are fatally flawed in several areas.

How to be an effective "free agent" in a multimedia world
Educators and learners are no longer limited to a specific curriculum and pre-approved textbooks. The internet offers easy access to diverse educational content from all over the world! Watch out though, there's a caveat: not all open educational content is good educational content, and you have to decide for yourself what to feed your brain.
"Open Education wants to address and equalize the power dynamics between teachers and learners by empowering learners to essentially be 'free agents'" says Renee Hobbs, Director of the Harrington School of Communications and Media. Prof. Hobbs identifies the three core skills you need to be an effective "free agent."
Intellectual curiosity. Asking questions is a core media literacy competency that applies to open education and lifelong learning. Rather than passively learning, free agents seek out information and question everything they see or hear.
Good decision-making. There is an abundance of information and entertainment available and you only have so much time. "The ability to make good choices is essential in an attention economy," says Prof. Hobbs. You need to decide which resources are the best for you.
Reflective creativity. Whether you are commenting, tweeting, writing or recording, you need to ask yourself what the consequences are of the content you create. "Am I really probing? Am I really investigating? Am I applying my unique position and place in the world to create something that reflects my lived experience?" suggests Prof. Hobbs. "The authenticity of that kind of creator is something we are really hungry for at this time at the beginning of the 21st century."
If you want to develop your "free agent" skills, a worthwhile place to start is the recently published Web Literacy Standard from the Mozilla Foundation. It maps out the key competencies you need to effectively read, write, and participate on the web.
What motivates teachers to use media in the classroom? Recent research identifies 12 teacher motivation profiles.
Powerful Voices for Kids is a new project from the University of Rhode Island's Media Education Lab that identifies 12 teacher motivations for using media in education. Published as a website and as a book, Powerful Voices for Kids also provides ideas and resources for educators tailored to each type of motivation.
Technology and media are ubiquitous in our lives, including the spaces where we teach and learn. Some of the pervasiveness of media happens inadvertently, but many educators intentionally use media content as part of their teaching practice. How they do so depends on their motivations, which differ from one teacher to another.
Professor Renee Hobbs, Director of the Harrington School of Communication and Media at the University of Rhode Island and co-founder of Powerful Voices for Kids, said, "I think that our work with educators across the K-12, college and informal learning contexts suggests that teachers use a variety of different criteria to evaluate the media content that they use in the classroom."
Prof. Hobbs gave the example that a teacher trying to motivate and engage learners might select content with a "hook" that connects with the students' personal lives or interests, while a teacher who wants to introduce learners to professional norms and academic knowledge would probably select media content based on the quality of the content." There are 12 teacher motivation profiles such as the Trendsetter, the Techie, and the Watchdog. Educators can take an online quiz to find out their motivation profile.
The profiles are based on research conducted by Prof. Hobbs and German visiting scholar Silke Graf, who interviewed educators from the US and Germany at all different levels of education. According to Prof. Hobbs, "With the rapidly changing digital environment, teachers need to stay on the sharp edge of keeping their skills and their knowledge current. That means that teachers have to be motivated to be lifelong learners. We believe that when we can activate the heart of teachers' passion for this work, we can do a better job of offering them professional development programs that are meaningful."
Prof. Hobbs will give a keynote speech at the upcoming Media & Learning conference in Brussels, where she will discuss in more depth her findings on teachers' motivations to use media for education. Registration for the conference is still open.

Meet the two main award winners MEDEA Awards 2012 on 22 November at 16h00
On 22 November 2012 at 16h00 CET you can meet two award winners of the MEDEA Awards 2012 that were announced last Wednesday 14 November. During this one-hour webinar Petros Michailidis (Greece) and Catherine Loire (France) will briefly present their entry and describe how they have successfully used media to enhance the learning process in their specific circumstances. There are still places available and participation to this webinar is free but prior registration is required.
To celebrate the MEDEA Awards 2012, the MEDEAnet project is organising a series of webinars where you can meet the MEDEA Awards 2012 winners and finalists:
Petros Michailidis (5th Primary school of Alexandroupolis, Greece) will talk about the eTwinning project 'And the Oscar goes to ... ' for which he collaborated with Christelle Vouillot, Ecole Primaire de Rolampont in France and won the MEDEA Award for User-Generated Educational Media 2012. This collaborative project incorporates the way storytelling is used in movies in everyday teaching practice for subjects such as language learning, mathematics, social and science studies, art, English, ICT, as well as for learning attitudes like how to handle bullying. This project gives students the skills and competences to create their own videos on these subjects in collaboration with other countries. It gives learners an opportunity to learn to express themselves in other ways beside the traditional written and oral communication.
Catherine Loire (TICE, Paris 1 Pantheon-Sorbonne University, France) will present the entry 'Quand la colère fait tomber les masques' by Université Paris 1 (France), which won the MEDEA Award for Professionally Produced Educational Media 2012. This 35-minute movie with a gripping story of a social conflict between an employee and the new management of a family owned company while becoming a large multinational. The movie shows the events from different angles: human resource management, employees' rights, conflict management, business ethics and corporate law. And in that way it is an interesting case study for Master Students in these areas, a case study that is much more effective and involving than it ever could be on paper.
After each presentation, participants will be given an opportunity to exchange experiences and to ask questions during a moderated online live chat discussion.
This webinar is aimed at teachers and trainers as well as representatives from educational ministries and professional educational media producers interested in finding out more about innovative practices in media-enhanced education and training.
Register online
Participation in these webinars is free but prior registration is required via an online form since the maximum number of participants for each webinar is 50. The link will be sent to you after registration as well as close to the event. As seats are limited, come early if you want to be sure to have a spot!
The webinars will be recorded and published online in the Media & Learning Resources Database.

Storytelling tops the bill at the MEDEA Awards 2012
The winners of the MEDEA Awards 2012 were announced during the MEDEA Awards Ceremony which took place on 14 November 2012 as part of the Media & Learning Conference in the Flemish Ministry of Education and Training headquarters in Brussels. Speaking at the awards, Mathy Vanbuel, Chairperson of the MEDEA Awards Committee, highlighted the fact that both winners have a really strong narrative element which highlights the importance of storytelling for learning. Discover their names here.
French entry 'Quand la colère fait tomber les masques' by is the winner of the MEDEA Professional Production Award and the entry And the Oscar goes to ... is the winner of the MEDEA User-Generated Award, a collaboration between two classes from 5th Primary school of Alexandroupolis in Greece and Ecole Primaire de Rolampont in France. This announcement was made during the MEDEA Awards Ceremony which took place on 14 November 2012 as part of the Media & Learning Conference in the Flemish Ministry of Education and Training headquarters in Brussels.
Speaking at the awards, Mathy Vanbuel, Chairperson of the MEDEA Awards Committee, highlighted the fact that both winners have a really strong narrative element which highlights the importance of storytelling for learning. "Narration is increasingly used to capture interest in the learning context, it is a way to keep learners motivated, to encourage them to press forward and to take a real interest in what is going on through their concern for what is happening to the characters in the stories that we tell. Everyone loves a good story, and nowhere is this more evident than in the MEDEA Awards this year."
This year the Special Prize for European Collaboration was awarded to Historiana - Your Portal to the Past by EUROCLIO - European Association of History Educators, The Netherlands. The prize for Educational Media Encouraging Active Ageing, set up to coincide with the European Year of Active Aging and Solidarity between Generations was won by All that Jazz made by Fundación Universidad Carlos III, Spain.
Two additional prizes were awarded: the first, the Special Jury Prize was given to Flying Start made by the University of Leeds, UK. The second, winner of the audience favourite prize, was won by Schoolovision made by schools all over Europe. The other finalists who took part in the MEDEA Awards last night were: Il Girotondo del Tempo made by Hyperfilm srl, Italy; Moving Image Techniques by Christina dePian, Greece; and SignMedia by the University of Wolverhampton, UK.
This year the competition attracted 213 entries from 32 countries. In addition to the finalists, the Organising Committee also announced 15 entries that are Highly Commended.
Find out more about these winners, finalists as well as the 15 Highly Commended in the press release (PDF) and don't forget: the closing date for receipt of entries for MEDEA 2013 is 30 September 2013.
"When I make a film, it's out of my head": Expressing emotion and healing through digital filmmaking in the classroom
This article by Brian Bailey was published on Digital Culture & Education, volume 3, issue 2.
This article examines how adolescents are using digital video production in school to express emotions, deal with personal and community problems and even draw on their multimedia compositions as a form of healing. In this sense, youth are using literacy to help them to make sense of their lives while attempting to make changes within themselves and their communities.
The data for this paper comes from a two-year ethnographic study in two high schools. Field observations, interviews, video data, pre-production texts (storyboards, scripts, screen plays etc.) and student films were analyzed to understand what language and literacy look like when students use digital video production and distribution in school to tell stories.
Drawing on a New Literacy Studies theoretical framework, the author argues that the literacy practices in this study allow students to make sense of issues and emotions in their lives and cope with their life circumstances by showing their stories to real audiences both within and beyond their schools.

A Pedagogy of Abundance or a Pedagogy to Support Human Beings? Participant Support on Massive Open Online Courses
This paper published at International Review of Research in Open and Distance Learning Vol 12, No 7 (2011) examines how emergent technologies could influence the design of learning environments.
The paper examines the roles of educators and learners in creating networked learning experiences on massive open online courses (MOOCs). It proves that it is possible to move from a pedagogy of abundance to a pedagogy that supports human beings in their learning through the active creation of resources and learning places by both learners and course facilitators.

The finale was good but I'm already getting bored of them dangling the Beckett/Castle relationship in front of us. At least now they've both realized they like each other, but they don't realize that the other likes them. Bah.
+1 for the title. I never even thought of that.
The relationship dangling is getting a bit old. Is Joss Whedon secretly writing this show?

More about yoghurt... Yoghurt came to the West from Asia and has been a staple here since the 1950s. This cultured milk product stays fresh longer than milk and is easier to digest too. The typical flavour and texture of yoghurt is due to a portion of the lactose, or milk sugar, being fermented by lactic acid bacteria. Also: Yoghurt is healthy. In mountainous regions of Bulgaria, yoghurt made from fresh milk is part of the simple daily diet. The people here live to an unusually old age.Yoghurt drinks such as lassi, raiti ayran, etc. can be made with vegetables (cucumber) or fruit (mango) and seasoned with the appropriate herbs.
More about forest fruit... Blueberries, blackberries and redcurrants are common berries that can still be found growing in woodlands. Blueberry pieces lend the sorbet a touch of juicy detail. In a blender combine frozen berries with a little confectioner's sugar, lemon juice and cream and mix until well blended. Chill until half frozen, place in a glass and top with Yoghurt & Forest Fruit. Yoghurt & Forest Fruit is perfect with... Sweet dishes and desserts: Currant muffin with cocoa Red berry compote Woodruff jelly Elderflower beignets
This practical size is used for take-away. It's the perfect format to indulge oneself and to enjoy a moment of pure pleasure!

These are my first pair of glasses. The other reviews were good so I decided to give them a try. They have a nice frame and fit securely. I was afraid they would be a bit loose, but after reading other reviews that they fit well I decided to give them a try. No problems, nice pair of glasses. Also fast shipping, especially to an APO!
These +.50 glasses are perfect for my needs. Even better was how FAST the delivery was!! Thank you :)
needed my first pair of glasses and dr suggested I go online for a .50 pair - these are adorable, smart looking, super well priced and the hard case is great too. have received many compliments on them and that helps offset the pains of knowing I am getting old!
I just had an eye exam and am at the age where I needed my first pair of reading glasses. After paying an arm and a leg (even with insurance) for a pair from my eye doctor, I decided to look for another pair as a back up. Not only did Debby Burk Optical have .50 reading glasses (hard to find), but they are cute, well made, and shipped very quickly (not to mention the price couldn't be beat). Thank you!
These are very good quality, affordable glasses. I have a very small face, and they even worked for me. Very impressed.

Browsing Faculty of Community & Health Sciences by Subject "Health equity"
Now showing items 1-2 of 2
Zarowsky, Christina (BioMed Central, 2011)[more][less]
Abstract: The papers in this important collection reflect a mature and confident way of doing global health research which is anything but business-as-usual. In the context of increasing competition for individual or institutional "leadership" of the field (and business) of gobal health, these contributors instead speak of active and sustained collaboration -- listening, responsiveness, flexibility, willingness and capacity to follow as well as to lead -- in learning what to transform or sustain, and how, in order to move towards greater equity in both health and health research. Each paper and the collection as a whole is an important contribution to the evidence base for a range of issues from maternal health, HIV and access to services, to chronic disease, health system strengthening, occupational health, ecosystemic approaches to health, and social inclusion, exclusion, and neglect. In addition, they challenge conventional models of research focused on narrowly defined research questions and a narrow range of pre-specified research methods, documenting instead how both the research questions and the methods most appropriate to address them change over time. Finally, they challenge both the idea of "pure" science undertaken by independent researchers on behalf of science and specific communities, and the conventional wisdom that North-South and research-research user-community partnerships are necessarily either North and researcher-driven, or scientifically dubious.

Scott, Vera; Stern, Ruth; Sanders, David; Reagon, Gavin; Mathews, Verona (BioMed Central, 2008)[more][less]
Abstract: BACKGROUND: While the importance of promoting equity to achieve health is now recognised, the health gap continues to increase globally between and within countries. The description that follows looks at how the Cape Town Equity Gauge initiative, part of the Global Equity Gauge Alliance (GEGA) is endeavouring to tackle this problem. We give an overview of the first phase of our research in which we did an initial assessment of health status and the socio-economic determinants of health across the subdistrict health structures of Cape Town. We then describe two projects from the second phase of our research in which we move from research to action. The first project, the Equity Tools for Managers Project, engages with health managers to develop two tools to address inequity: an Equity Measurement Tool which quantifies inequity in health service provision in financial terms, and a Equity Resource Allocation Tool which advocates for and guides action to rectify inequity in health service provision. The second project, the Water and Sanitation Project, engages with community structures and other sectors to address the problem of diarrhoea in one of the poorest areas in Cape Town through the establishment of a community forum and a pilot study into the acceptability of dry sanitation toilets. METHODS: A participatory approach was adopted. Both quantitative and qualitative methods were used. The first phase, the collection of measurements across the health subdistricts of Cape Town, used quantitative secondary data to demonstrate the inequities. In the Equity Tools for Managers Project further quantitative work was done, supplemented by qualitative policy analysis to study the constraints to implementing equity. The Water and Sanitation Project was primarily qualitative, using in-depth interviews and focus group discussions. These were used to gain an understanding of the impact of the inequities, in this instance, inadequate sanitation provision. RESULTS: The studies both demonstrate the value of adopting the GEGA approach of research to action, adopting three pillars of assessment and monitoring; advocacy; and community empowerment. In the Equity Tools for Managers Project study, the participation of managers meant that their support for implementation was increased, although the failure to include nurses and communities in the study was noted as a limitation. The development of a community Water and Sanitation Forum to support the Project had some notable successes, but also experienced some difficulties due to lack of capacity in both the community and the municipality. CONCLUSION: The two very different, but connected projects, demonstrate the value of adopting the GEGA approach, and the importance of involvement of all stakeholders at all stages. The studies also illustrate the potential of a research institution as informed 'outsiders', in influencing policy and practice. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10566/171 Files in this item: 1

This season, he had just eight points in 20 games before being benched at Florida. Foligno said, "I was pretty surprised, you don't really want to hear that, it was tough. The biggest thing for me was Ron didn't just say you're not playing, he showed me a lot of what I can bring, the good things on the ice and things I've got to start doing so it was a big learning tool and I'm looking forward to getting back into the lineup." The winger went on to say that maybe he was confused on what kind of player he is, "I'm learning, being scratched has taught me a lot. I think in the beginning of the year I might have been getting caught in the middle, trying to be physical, trying to be offensive so I just gotta play my game and start winning one on one battles. I know what I can bring and my team knows what I can bring."
As far as what went wrong Foligno said, "I think I was trying to do too much, just simplifying my game I think is the biggest thing. I've got to be a simple player and when I'm a simple player, I'm most effective. I think that's using my speed on the walls and battling pucks. For myself I was losing a lot of battles and that's not how I play so I was disappointed with my effort and I have to be ready to go come Saturday."
As far as what Ron Rolston is thinking he said, "Marcus is a player that can be a dominant hockey player in this league and he was when he came to Buffalo last year, but in order to do that he has to play a certain way and he hasn't been able to do that thus far, but we have full confidence that he'll be able to get that game back." Rolston added, "He's got to work consistently in doing the things that makes him a good hockey player and that's being a player that can be north and south and get to the net and attack the net, be good on walls in our zone and just be a presence for us. If he's playing with guys who are water bugs like Ennis or Gerbe, he's got to be a guy that makes space and plays his game and not their game."
Thomas Vanek was given the day off from practice. He should be ready for Saturday afternoon against New Jersey.

The Philadelphia Inquirer ( http://bit.ly/OQuhuX) says U.S. Bankruptcy Court Judge Eric Frank applauded lawyers for arriving at a plan with minimal litigation and wished the Pops luck.
Frank Giordano, president and chief executive officer of Encore Series Inc., said after Wednesday's hearing that "Now we have to sell some tickets."
The firm filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy last year as part of the bankruptcy of the Philadelphia Orchestra Association, with which it was in the process of merging.
Earlier this month, the court approved a deal calling for Pops artistic director Peter Nero to step down next year after more than three decades as the group's leader.

Quick FactsU.S. college debt, student loans, at nearly $1 trillion, is larger than housing or credit card debt.
In addition, 37% of workers surveyed felt that women who had slept with their bosses improved their career chances by doing so. US healthcare worst, and most expensive. The U.S. is a worse place for newborns than 68 other countries, including Egypt, Turkey and Peru, according to a report released on May 6, 2013 by Save the Children. Canadians live three years longer and are healthier than Americans, and the lack of universal health care in the United States may be a factor, researchers say. ___________________________________________________
