It is no secret that the first item on the cutting room floor in times of budget constraints is training. Training being delivered, funds to purchase materials, and staff allocations for trainers are all subject to reduction.
Thankfully, there are several case law decisions that back those trainers in the trenches, when the time comes to defend training programs to managerial staff.
Zuchel v. Denver
One such case is Zuchel v. City and County of Denver. The case centered on the actions of police officers dispatched to a disturbance involving Mr. Zuchel on the night of August 6, 1985.
At the time the officers arrived on scene, Mr. Zuchel was engaging in an argument with teenagers adjacent to a fast food restaurant, and was facing away from approaching officers. As the officers approached, one of the teenagers involved in the argument informed officers that Zuchel was armed with a knife.
Officers shouted at the suspect, who then turned to face them. Zuchel was subsequently shot and killed and was found to be in possession of fingernail clippers. For those not familiar with the case, it warrants a read.
Several issues were raised at the subsequent trial, one of which was the lack of training Denver Police Department provided to its officers.
To quote the plaintiff's expert opinion:
"It's my opinion that the absence of training caused the shooting of Mr. Zuchel. Officer Spinharney handled this just the way any guy on the street would. He did not handle it as a professional, trained police officer who had received training on when it was appropriate to shoot and when it was appropriate not to shoot would have handled this situation."
Following the outcome of this case, Denver Police Department rapidly became — and continues to be — a model agency for both simulation training as well as live-fire perishable-skills training.

I love the autumn me, it's so much more beautiful than the blistering days of summer here.
And being in the autumn of life myself it's rather sweet..
Leaves are falling all around,
Its time I was on my way.
Thanks to you, I'm much obliged
For such a pleasant stay.
But now its time for me to go,
The autumn moon lights my way.
For now I smell the rain,
And with it pain,
And its headed my way.
Ah, sometimes I grow so tired,
But I know Ive got one thing I got to do….

First 2012 Chassis Design Submission!
Posted on: July 22, 2010 | Comments(13) | 2012 Chassis Designs |
{Admin Note} With all of the excitement——and questions around the Future IndyCar Concept Announcement. We at IndyCar.com thought we'd enlist our users to have fun with the open design concept that the 2012 IndyCar chassis will endorse. Thank you to Patrick Koepke, and congratulations to him for being the first fan to submit a design. Below is his note about how his design was created. Enjoy.
My name is Patrick Koepke. My inspiration for the design was to blend the old Dallara chassis design with more modern "wind-tunnel" inspired sculpting, including a progressive front nose layout that increases surface area for additional downforce (like a modern propeller.) The engine cowling maintains the current design intake with additional air flow channels, and the tail (in this case a super-speedway tail) is simplified with an additional vane to adjust.
What are your thoughts?
DID YOU KNOW that you too can design your own 2012 IndyCar!? Visit Here

I've Seen the Promised Land: The Life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (Hardcover)
Not currently in the store – Usually ships in 1-5 days
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., is one of the most celebrated figures of the twentieth century. A crusader for nonviolent social justice, he led African Americans in their demands for equality through peaceful protests during one of the most tumultuous times in recent history.
Set against key moments in the civil rights movement, here is the story of the powerful, eloquent spiritual leader and his belief that nonviolence could be used to overcome racial discrimination.
Walter Dean Myers's moving narrative and Leonard Jenkins's compelling paintings portray a vivid and striking image of the man who moved American society closer to the ideals of freedom and fairness. Dr. King's dream that all Americans would be judged by their individual actions and character is one we still cherish today.
About the Author
Walter Dean Myers is the National Ambassador for Young People's Literature, New York Times bestselling author of Monster, and winner of the first Michael L. Printz Award. The critically acclaimed author of Kick, Lockdown, Dope Sick, Game, Street Love, The Autobiography of My Dead Brother, Handbook for Boys, and Bad Boy, he is considered one of the preeminent writers for children. Walter's novel shooter is the inspiration for the film Case 219.
His latest picture-book collaboration with his son, Christopher Myers, We Are America: A Tribute from the Heart, is a love letter to the United States that reimagines what it means to be an American. Visit www.who-is-america.com to find out more!
Walter lives in Jersey City, New Jersey, with his family.

During an agricultural aerial application flight near hilly terrain, the pilot pulled up at the end of an application run in order to execute his reversal turn. During the pull-up/turn sequence, the airplane encountered a localized wind shear, which resulted in the airplane's nose dropping down and to the right. Although the pilot attempted a recovery, he did not have enough altitude to do so, and therefore the airplane impacted the terrain. The pilot reported that there was no indication of problems with the flight controls or the engine. The impact sequence resulted in substantial damage to both the fuselage and the wings.

I pulled out this embossing folder that I haven't used in FOREV-A! So glad I did!
Seriously, after I finally had it planned out in my head (I *see* all my cards in my head before I make them!) this card took 5 seconds! Well....maybe a couple minutes! hehe!
Thanks for coming by today! I was super bummed to not play along with the PTI hop! Other than having no mojo, I really have had NO time! I am working on several events for church and school and keeping up with kids too! I know I am way behind on my blog commenting too! Oh and we made a new rule...NO computer on Sundays! I came up with the rule so I figured I better abide by it! (We will see how long that lasts!)
Better get going...my 2 year old just handed me my entire role of Scotch foam tape in a large, unrolled mess...omg. bye.

Breaking: Obama orders hospitals to grant same-sex couples visitation
Breaking News: President Obama orders hospitals to grant same-sex couples visitation rights
News Alert: Obama orders hospitals to grant same-sex couples visitation rights
From The Washington Post
President Obama signed an order Thursday night requiring hospitals to allow gays and lesbians to have non-family visitors and to grant their partners medical power of attorney.
The president ordered the Department of Health and Human Services to prohibit discrimination in hospital visitation. The memo is scheduled to be made public Friday morning, according to an administration official and another source familiar with the White House decision.
An official said the new rule will affect any hospital that receives Medicare or Medicaid funding.
This is incredibly important.
I think a lot of Straight people have come to understand the difficulties Gay and Lesbian couples often face at a critical time in the hospital. My guy and I had to fight nurses and administrators through 14 amputations, no matter how much legal paperwork we had.
This order will make a real difference. So I thank the president and all you fair-minded Straight people who have tried to understand and support us even when we seemed to be the strangers.
God is love, and you show that.

Belle Santora recognized the photo in the April 23 issue of the Enterprise Pilot as, "Beekman Beach where the kids walk down to the beach with their kayaks."
Billy Minicozzi said, "It is two girls by a picket fence going rowing or canoeing." He added, "Good luck to Billy Starke on his retirement after 24 years in the lighting bureau." On a sports note he said, "The Mets have a new stadium and I want them to win the World Series."
Rhoda Crawford said, "The picture is Beekman Beach where they do the rowing to Centre Island beach and back." She added, "Have a good spring. I'm heading back to Florida."
Bon Voyage - and keep in touch via email!
Ray Castellano caught up with last week's mystery picture answer saying, "It is the old town hall taken from the corner of Spring and Audrey in Oyster Bay, across from the U.S. Post Office and Café Al Dente."

Orlando Music News
Dead Milkmen ARE coming to Orlando for the first time since 1993
Make two fists and then use your knuckles all you like to rub your eyes, but you read it right. Those hardcore jokesters the Dead Milkmen have been contracted to play a show in Orlando on April 12, AND even crazier news for our punk-loving community, they're booked at a new club, Fabbio's Live. The Dead Milkmen haven't been to town since 1993 when they played the Station in Fern Park (which, incidentally, you may want to like this Facebook page for the former rock club's reunion event in 2014), so this show comes way out of left field in a super-gratifying way for longtime fans and signals the birth of a notably curated venue you'll want to keep track of.
I had a hunch the rumors would be right about this show, which is sure to be one of this year's craziest. Tickets are not yet available, and I can't share the venue info just yet, but the show promoter did tell me the tickets would be $20, and there'd be at least 500 of them available. Keep coming back to Orlando Music News, cuz I'll announce the ticket on-sale date the second I get it. But if you're wondering what the difference is between the Dead Milkmen now and the band in 1993, here's a video from 2013:
And here they were in 1993 at a show in Philly:

WASHINGTON -- It's happening throughout the region: Stealing copper piping from homes under construction or being renovated.
In Prince William County, almost 30 homes have been victims of copper theft since June.
In some cases, water pipes have been stolen with water still in the pipes.
Experts warn that if the pipes are part of a gas line or if the theft isn't noticed, gas can build up and be a threat for explosion the next time a light switch is flipped.
If you notice piping has been stolen, call the fire department at 703-670-3700. They can ventilate and test the home to make sure it's safe.

Associated Press
Oil edged above $94 a barrel Wednesday, recovering slightly from an extended slide ahead of a report expected to show another increase in U.S. crude stockpiles.
By early afternoon in Europe, benchmark U.S. crude for December delivery was up 78 cents at $94.15 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract slid $1.25 to $93.37 on Tuesday, adding to a monthlong slide. Crude is down about 10 percent since closing at $104.10 on October 2.
U.S. crude stockpiles have increased in each of the past six weeks, mostly because of rising domestic production, and were more than 10 percent above their five-year average near the end of October.
A report from the industry-funded American Petroleum Institute released late Tuesday showed a rise of 871,000 barrels in crude stocks last week, while gasoline stocks fell by an unexpectedly large 4.3 million barrels.
The figures from the Energy Information Administration -- the market benchmark -- due Wednesday are expected to show a further increase of 2.5 million barrels in crude stocks and a draw of 1 million barrels in gasoline supplies, according to a survey of analysts by Platts, the energy information arm of McGraw-Hill Cos.
"The surprisingly marked decline in stocks of oil products despite a higher level of crude oil processing points to robust U.S. exports of gasoline and distillates," analysts at Commerzbank in Frankfurt said in a note to clients. "Alongside a noticeably firmer U.S. dollar, plentiful supply is also weighing on oil prices."
A stronger dollar tends to boost oil prices by making commodities like crude priced in dollars cheaper --and a more attractive investment -- for traders using other currencies. The euro has fallen from highs around $1.38 last week to around $1.3511 on Wednesday.
Brent crude, the international benchmark, was up 88 cents at $106.21 a barrel on the ICE Futures exchange in London.
In other energy futures trading on Nymex:
-- Wholesale gasoline added 3.8 cents to $2.5541 a gallon.
-- Heating oil rose 2.27 cents to $2.8868 a gallon.
-- Natural gas gained 2.6 cents to $3.492 per 1,000 cubic feet.

Two huge construction projects off Interquest Parkway near I-25 in northern Colorado Springs appear to be moving along very slowly, if at all.
Colorado Crossing, a mixed-use retail, entertainment, and office complex southeast of the intersection of State Highway 83 and Voyager Parkway, has been stalled for months after the developers, SRKO Family Limited Partnership, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in March. Exterior shells of the sprawling complex on 153 acres of prime property across from New Life Church were erected long ago, but virtually no interior work has been completed and most tools and heavy construction equipment have been removed from the site. Dozens of contractors and subcontractors have filed liens on the developers. El Paso County Assessor Mark Lowderman says no part of the Colorado Crossing project is more than 40 percent finished, even though a sign on the property boasts that the anchor tenant, Cinemark Theaters, would be "Opening Fall 2008." Lowderman says the project likely collapsed due to a series of factors. Another cinema complex opened a quarter-mile away, the project was largely funded out-of-pocket by developer Jannie Richardson at the same time the economy went sour, lenders tightened their purse strings, and tenants got shy about committing to long-term leases. The snowball effect financially crippled Richardson, SRKO, and any hopes the project would be finished on time, if at all. Perhaps a sign of the lack of confidence that the project will gain traction anytime soon: utility crews have removed the stoplight along Voyager Parkway at Colorado Crossing's west entrance. Until this week, the light had only flashed yellow signals at traffic on Voyager Parkway. There is still no estimated completion date for Colorado Crossing.
Meanwhile, a Summer 2011 opening is still slated for the Renaissance Colorado Springs Hotel, Spa, and Conference Center, a 300-room hotel complex on Federal Drive and prominently visible from I-25. The hotel's web site boasts that, when finished, the facility will have 50,000 square feet of flexible event space. As of now, the road to the hotel is blocked off, "No Trespassing" signs encircle the facility, entryways are boarded off, and a sign warns that alarms will sound if intruders try to gain entry. "Conference center anchored lodging facilities seem to be doing pretty well right now. I think it would be an addition to the north part of town once it comes online," says Lowderman, but he continued, "I'm not sure what niche they're after, but I would hope they'd have that lined up before they started construction."

Publisher: Chess Digest Author: GM Andrew Soltis Year of Publication: 1997
Pages: 179 Notation Type: Algebraic (AN)
Essentially, Soltis advocates a 1 c4, 2 g3 sequence against virtually any set-up by Black. The rare exception is the response 2?d5 after either 1?e6 or 1?c6, when 3 b3 is recommended, although even here, the King?s Bishop does end up fianchettoed, but just a few moves later.
The book maintains the same basic coverage as the second edition. It is divided into four sections: I ? c4 e5; II ? c4 c5; III ? c4 Nf6; and IV - c4, others. There are two basic systems presented in the book: The set-up credited to Botvinnik, with the KB fianchettoed, the QN on c3, pawns on c4, d3 and e4, and the KN on e2; and a variation of this, with the pawn on e3, with the d?pawn retaining the option of going to either d3 or d4, depending on circumstances.
American Grandmaster Andy Soltis is one of the most prolific chess writers in the world today. He has carved a particular niche out in the area of repertoire books, the proverbial "Winning withthe?" fare. His latest offering is the third edition of a work first released over fifteen years ago, "Winning with the English."

Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to destroy cancer cells. At Memorial Sloan Kettering, radiation therapy is used in many different situations for breast cancer patients.
Following a lumpectomy, radiation is focused on the breast and sometimes the surrounding lymph node area to destroy any stray cells that may have been left behind. This treatment reduces the chance of a recurrence of cancer.
In addition to using radiation to target the entire breast with the cancer (this approach is considered the standard of care), Memorial Sloan Kettering is evaluating an approach called partial breast radiation in which radiation is delivered only to the section of the breast with the cancer.
Your oncologist, breast surgeon, radiation oncologist, and plastic surgeon (if reconstruction after mastectomy is planned) will work together to decide the best sequence of treatments. A course of standard radiation therapy for breast cancer typically includes five days of treatment a week for four to six weeks. At each session, which generally lasts about 15 minutes, the patient lies on a special treatment table.
Recent clinical studies have demonstrated that hypofractionated radiation treatment, in which shorter courses of radiation are given to the breast, is as effective as the longer conventional course. More radiation is given during each visit. Your radiation oncologist will determine whether this is an option for you.
Memorial Sloan Kettering offers several newer forms of radiation therapy for breast cancer. These include:
In IMRT, a special computer program is used to deliver a uniform, or homogenous, dose of radiation to the breast. This technology prevents the emergence of so-called hot spots (areas that receive more radiation than others due to the shape of the breast) and minimizes acute and late reactions. In special situations, IMRT is also used to limit the radiation dose to organs close to the breast or lymph nodes being treated.
Some patients are able to lie on their stomachs instead of their backs, and radiation is directed to the affected breast as it hangs through an opening in a special table. This approach reduces radiation exposure to nearby vital organs such as the heart and lungs. It has been found to be especially useful for women with large breasts.
In IGRT, doctors and radiation therapists use imaging technologies to locate the tumor just before the radiation dose is given while the patient is in the treatment position. This results in a more accurate delivery of radiation directly to the tumor.
While all of these special technical innovations are available at Memorial Sloan Kettering, some applications are limited to clinical trials. Your radiation oncologist can discuss the specifics of your case during your consultation.
Radiation treatments today are very precise, resulting in little harm to surrounding skin or healthy tissues. Radiation is generally very well tolerated, but after approximately three weeks there may be some side effects, such as a sunburn-like condition on the skin, fatigue, discoloration of the skin, or swelling and heaviness in the breast. Your radiation oncologist will explain in detail what to expect and when side effects are likely to appear. He or she can also prescribe a topical skin cream to minimize the side effects.

Answer: Did someone install a radio, CD or other such device? If so, you (probably) are getting feedback through the ground circuit. Disconnect all the above items and see if the dash lights go out.

I can't even tell you how much I suck at coming up with titles. O jeesh, I hope I did okay, though.
-Davidson Manor, Brownville, Maine. 12 years ago-
I was sitting in my room at my little pink table with my dolls and Mr. Ted. Mommy and Daddy were downstairs talking. At least that's what Mommy said they were doing. They were talking really loud and I thought Mommy was crying, but they said it was okay and that I should get back to my tea party. I was pouring Mr. Ted some tea when Mommy came into my room. She started getting my clothes and putting them into the bag she had.
"Mommy? What are you doing?" I asked her. She didn't look at me.
"Sweetie, I need you to grab a couple of your toys and come with me, okay?" she said, still putting clothes into the bag.
"Why? Are we going on vacation?" I asked. She was quiet when she answered.
"Yeah, honey. We're going on vacation, just you and me," she said, smiling. It looked more like a sad smile than a happy one.
"What about Daddy?"
"Daddy....daddy has to work," she said.
"Oh, I want him to come with us," I said.
"I know you do, baby, I know you do."
"Maureen!" Daddy shouted. Mommy closed my closet and walked toward me. I got a chance to grab Mr. Ted before she picked me up and took me out of my room. She went down the stairs really fast and I saw Daddy by the front door. He looked really mean and scary while he was looking at Mommy. He looked at me and his mean and scariness went away. He looked sad.
"Daddy, are you sad?" I asked. He shook his head and looked down.
"No, baby, I'm not sad," he said. There was something wet by his eye.
"Daddy, you're crying!" I exclaimed.
"Alright, we have to go now," Mommy said, opening the door.
"Maureen, hang on a sec," Daddy said.
"Hurry up, Will," Mommy snapped, putting me down. Daddy got down to my height and took my hands.
"Hayley, it's going to be a while before I see you again. I want you to take this and promise me that you will keep it and not lose it," he said, placing the crescent shaped sparkly gray rock in my hand. This was mine and Daddy's moon rock. We found it when he took me to the beach one day. He said that this kind of rock was hard to find and that it was special because we found it. I nodded my head.
"I promise I won't lose it, Daddy," I said.
"Good girl," he whispered.
"Will I see you again, Daddy?"
"I promise you will," he said sadly. He hugged me tightly and I hugged him back. When was I going to see him again? He said it would be a while and every time Mommy or Daddy said a while, it always meant a long time.
"Okay, we have to go now," Mommy said, taking my hand.
"Bye Daddy," I said, waving at him.
"Bye baby," he said. Mommy took me out to the car and put me in my booster seat in the back of her car and she ran to the front seat and drove away from our house, with Daddy still in the door, watching us leave. I watched him out the back window until I couldn't see him anymore.
"Where are we going on vacation, Mommy?" I asked.
"I don't know, hon. I don't know," she sighed. She must have decided to take us someplace far, because it was getting super dark outside and she was still driving. I saw the lights of the cars and the lights on the street getting brighter and brighter each minute and soon, my eyes were too heavy to keep open anymore.
-Tallahassee, Florida. Five years later-
That long vacation mom told me we were going on? Turns out it was a permanent vacation. She left my dad five years ago. I still didn't know why. The only thing I did know, and was sure of, was that I really missed him. In some way, I knew that I shouldn't. It's not like he tried to find me or contact me or anything. I was pulled out of thought when I felt a little pain in my thumb. I jumped and saw that I pricked it with the moon rock I was squeezing in my hand. I sighed and put the stone back on the nightstand. I looked out the bedroom door at the front door and waited for it to open, but it didn't. I looked at the clock. It was midnight. I shook my head and laid down in my bed. Whatever, I was done waiting for Mom to get home. If that's what I could call this place, home. Maybe not. A hotel isn't really a home. I sure as hell didn't want it to be. Most of the people here were snotty rich butt faces who came here for paradise beach vacations and were only here to escape their boring every day lives back home. Not me, though. I would give anything to go back home. I would give anything to go back to the family manor and see my dad again. But no. The front door slammed open and the living room lights flicked on and snuck under my door.

Return of the Church Committee?
By C4L_Intern on November 12, 2013 in National Blog
By: Matt McBride In 1974, it was revealed that the CIA was involved in illegal intelligence operations against thousands of American citizens. The following year, a special committee, chaired by Idaho Senator Frank Church, was tasked with conducting an investigation into the agency. While there was no dramatic overhaul of the federal programs, the Church […]

The Skyguard fires 40mm flak rounds that are highly effective against enemy aircraft.
The Skyguard is a Lightning with a Skyguard turret. This loadout is simply referred to as a "Skyguard" by players. The Skyguard is very effective against ESFs, Liberators and Galaxy. With its high rate of fire, long range, and relatively small cone of fire, it can inflict damage to aircraft quite quickly. The Skyguard shoots flak that explodes on impact or proximity to an aircraft, increasing the chance of delivering damage.
While the Skyguard has a significant advantage against aircraft, it cannot protect itself against enemy tanks or infantry with anti-armor weaponry. The Skyguard turret is capable of damaging all targets, but flak shells will only explode near aircraft. This significantly reduces its firepower against any other threat, requiring Skyguard operators to choose their firing positions wisely or to travel with allies capable of defending the vehicle.
Turret and ammunitionEdit
With 75 rounds in the standard magazine, the Skyguard can take out any ESFs using one magazine, if most of the flaks hits. Liberators need 2 magazines and Galaxies need closer to 4 magazines. The turret has an elevation angle arc from 0 to 90 degrees relative to the hull of the Skyguard, allowing the entirety of the sky to be covered, but leading to severe blindspots on the ground.

MONTESANO, Wash. (AP) - A jury has acquitted a Washington man accused of breaking into a home and throwing a dead mink at another man during a confrontation that made weasel headlines across the country.
Defense lawyer Chris Crew said Monday that 33-year-old Jobie J. Watkins of Hoquiam was found not guilty of burglary.
Police said Watkins was carrying the dead animal when he went to the other man's apartment looking for his ex-girlfriend on June 6. The other man said he was struck after he asked Watkins why he had a dead weasel and Watkins reportedly insisted that it was a marten.
Crew said witnesses provided inconsistent accounts and the "prosecution failed to prove a link to the mink."
The Daily World of Aberdeen reports Watkins never explained why he had the carcass.

Police say a 5-year-old boy was shot in South Bend Thursday night and that it was his 7-year-old brother who pulled the trigger.
Authorities say he is now recovering at an Indianapolis hospital.
It happened at about 8:35 p.m.Wednesday in the 1300-block of North Huey Street on the city's west side.
"It was horrible," said Jimmy Lee Gillam, who lives at the home . "Everybody was just hoping that he is alright."
According to police, the child was shot in the hip and wrist by his brother in the bath tub. A babysitter had been watching over the children that night, but was not in the bathroom when the shooting happened.
"He was struck with a single bullet," Capt. Phil Trent, from the South Bend Police Department. "It went through his left arm then hit him in the hip. So he's got two injuries on two spots on his body but it was one shot that caused that."
No word yet on how the older 7-year-old brother gained possession of the hand gun.
"Everybody's still real hurt from this," Gillam said. "But, we are just trying to figure out. Just trying to get past this."

Our Campaigns
Global Non-communicable Disease Framework
Of the 57 million global deaths in 2008, 36 million, or 63% were due to Non-communicable Disease (NCDs), mainly cancers, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and chronic respiratory diseases. Nearly 80% of NCD deaths occur in low- and middle- income countries
In 2011 the cancer and NCD community made history with the adoption of the UN Political Declaration on the Prevention and Control of NCDs, which recognised NCDs as a global health and development priority and commited governments to take urgent action to address this growing crisis. Success followed in 2012, with the adoption of a global target to reduce premature deaths from NCDs by 25% by 2025. Most recently, at the 66th World Health Assembly in Geneva (May, 2013), Member States unanimously adopted and supported an omnibus resolution on NCDs. This groundbreaking resolution fulfills commitments made in the UN Political Declaration on NCDs, and signals consensus on the three pillars of a new global NCD architecture - action, accountability and coordination.
The key decisions in the resolution are:
• To endorse the WHO global action plan for the prevention and control of NCDs 2013–2020 (GAP);
• To adopt the global monitoring framework on NCDs (GMF), including the 9 global targets and 25 indicators;
• To develop a global coordination mechanism (GCM) by the end of 2013 to coordinate activities and promote engagement of all actors in the global NCD response.
The GMF and GAP include cancer-specific targets, actions and indicators including in the areas of:
- Cancer planning and surveillance
- Vaccination for HPV and HBV against cervical and liver cancers
- Early detection and screening for breast, cervical, oral and colorectal cancers linked to timely treatment
- Access to essential medicines and technologies
- Palliative care policies
These achievements are the outcome of lengthy and complex consultations led by the WHO, to which UICC and its members have contributed every step of the way.
Our next challenge as cancer advocates is to ensure that governments take concrete actions at the national level to make these commitments a reality. We encourage you to use the template letter (available to download in righthand column) to reach out to your Minister of Health and explore how cancer organisations can further support these efforts.

- Morel Mushrooms
- 1 Egg
- 1 Cup of Milk
- 1 Cup of Flour
- Salt
- Pepper
- Butter
I was at a friend's house the other night and they had picked up a half pound of Blonde Morel Mushrooms at a local farmers market. They were flown in from Oregon. What a great find! They also had picked up a nice selection of root vegetables and some bone in rib eyes. (Sorry about the poor quality of the photos. They were taken with my phone.)
She first cut them in half and rinsed them under cold water. This gets rid of dirt and bugs that may be lodged in the holes.
She whisked together an egg and 1 cup of milk.
After placing the morels in the egg milk mixture she dredged them in flour that had a bit of salt and pepper added to it.
Some butter melting in the pan.
Over medium heat she placed the breaded Morels in the butter. It only took a couple of minutes per side to cook them.
Here is what they looked like after being turned once. About 4 minutes total cook time.
Here is what the complete meal looked like. Boy howdy it was good.
If you have never had Morel Mushrooms, I strongly recommend you try them. They are by far my favorite mushroom.

HUNTINGTON, Ind. – Huntington University Director of Athletics Lori Culler has announced that the Foresters will increase its intercollegiate sports offerings to 17 with the addition of women's golf beginning in the fall of 2015.
"We are very excited to add women's golf to the growing number of athletic programs we offer at Huntington University," said Culler. "The addition makes sense given that the Crossroads League added women's golf as a conference sport in 2012 and that we believe there are many talented female golfers both locally and in surrounding states that will find HU a good fit academically and athletically."
Women's golf will the third sport added at Huntington in the past three years with men's and women's bowling competing in their inaugural seasons in 2012.
Pete Schownir will serve as the program's first head coach. Schownir brings plenty of coaching experience to the position having served as HU's men's golf coach from 2001-2006.
In his first year, the team's tournament stroke average improved by 18 shots. During his five-year stint as the men's skipper, Schownir coached five NAIA Academic All-Americans and was named the MCC Co-Coach of the Year in 2004.
Schownir, who has served on the board of the Indiana Golf Foundation for three years, will also put his playing experience to good use as he looks to build the program. In addition to winning five local amateur tournament titles, he has played in six Indiana Open and Amateur tournaments, six Indiana Senior Opens and one Indiana Senior Amateur,
"I am thrilled to be the first coach for women's golf at Huntington University," said Schownir, "I look forward to building a competitive program but will also encourage the young women that come through the program to enjoy a great game for their rest of their lives and pass it along."
Schownir has been hot on the recruiting trail and has already inked a blue chipper with the signing of New Palestine High School standout Abby Poole.
The New Palestine native is the program's first recruit for 2015 and Schownir couldn't be more excited to build his program around her.
"I am especially thrilled to have Abby Poole be our first recruit signing," said Schownir. "She personifies the qualities of a Huntington University student-athlete that I look for - a servant's heart, academic excellence, and a quality golf game played with the right perspective. She is a great centerpiece to build a program around."
With her senior year still to come, Poole has already amassed a laundry list of accomplishments. The three-time All-County and All-Conference honoree has also been deemed her team's MVP the past three seasons.
Poole stormed through her junior season by claiming medalist honors in 11 of her 14 regular season matches and topped off the year by repeating as the sectionals medalist. Poole also earned her second All-County medalist title last year by shooting a one-under-par 35, a new school record.
When not playing for the Dragons, Poole has been active in various tours which include the Mountain Dew Junior Tour where she has racked up three championships and five other top four finishes over the past two years.
"I chose Huntington University because I wanted a Christian education and opportunity to participate as a student athlete in a sport I love – golf," said Poole. "Huntington University will challenge me to be the best student, athlete and represent Christ on and off the course. I look forward to leaving footsteps worth following as the first signee of the women's golf program and HU."
Abby is the daughter of Wayne and Dee Dee Poole of New Palestine, Ind.

Use the glyph and the black heart.
Dodge trinkets are meh
After doing some reading on these forums I've confuzzled myself with which trinkets afford the most EH. Stamina seems to be the obvious choice, but it seems there are some arguments to support Armor. I understand certain situations will ask for different itemization (+stam has more benefit Vs casters than +armor) but I'm looking for the, 'as a general rule' rule.
My armory
Current equipped trinkets are The Black Heart and Bubbling Brightbrew Charm
In my bags are Glyph of Indominability and Eitrigg's Oath
Should I aim to reach the 75% armor cap or continue to stack stam? Or only use the armor trinket's on melee heavy bosses? Or 1 of each? If so, which is lesser value? Black Heart or Brightbrew? Thanks for the suggestions/clarification in advance
Use the glyph and the black heart.
Dodge trinkets are meh
I agree with Glyph + BH, just make sure to replace Glyph with Brewfest for magic-heavy fights like that dude in VoA (not that he hits hard but it never hurts to gear to the encounter).
Eitrigg's Oath is garbage. Vendor it.
^ truth. Save up for the Corroded Skeleton key if you can, then swap it with the black heart, then use those two (skeleton key and black heart) on magic-damage heavy fights.

German Business Confidence May Stay at Record High as Exports to Asia Boom - Bloomberg
Written on January 21, 2011
German business confidence probably stayed at a record high in January as booming exports to Asia and stronger household spending bolstered growth in Europe's largest economy.
The Ifo institute's business climate index, based on a survey of 7,000 executives, probably held at 109.9 in January, the median of 41 forecasts in Bloomberg News survey shows. That's the highest since records for a reunified Germany began in 1991. Ifo releases the report at 10 a.m. in Munich.
Germany's economy expanded a record 3.6 percent last year as declining unemployment encouraged consumers to spend more and companies increased investment to meet export demand. German growth is driving the recovery in the 17-nation euro area as countries such as Ireland, Greece, Portugal and Spain introduce austerity measures to rein in budget deficits amid a sovereign debt crisis. French business confidence also rose this month.
"Clearly, Germany is the high-flyer of the euro region," said Stefan Schneider, chief international economist at Deutsche Bank AG in Frankfurt. "We're benefitting from strength in emerging markets while private consumption is supported by an extremely good development on the labor market. Germany will once again grow above potential this year."
Ifo's gauge of executives' expectations probably eased to 106.5 from 106.9, the Bloomberg survey shows, while an indicator of the current situation may increase to 113.2 from 112.9. That would be the highest since December 2006.
Corporate Profits
Investor confidence jumped to a six-month high in January and the benchmark DAX stock index this week rose to the highest level in more than 2 1/2 years after companies reported higher profits. The index rose 0.3 percent at 9:30 a.m. in Frankfurt.
In France, an index of sentiment among factory executives increased to 108 in January from 102 in the previous month, national statistics office Insee in Paris said today. That's the highest in almost three years fast cash.
Douglas Holding AG, Europe's largest makeup and perfume retailer, said on Jan. 12 that annual profit rose 21 percent and first quarter sales increased as Germans boosted spending at the company's bookstores and Christ jewelry outlets.
Germany's Bayerische Motoren Werke AG, Daimler AG and Audi AG, the world's three largest luxury-carmakers, will expand factories this year to ease capacity constraints driven by record demand for their vehicles.
German factory orders surged five times more than economists forecast in November, driven by demand from outside the euro area.
"Germany is benefitting considerably from the strong recovery of the global economy, especially in Asian emerging markets," Bundesbank President Axel Weber said on Jan. 18. "Foreign demand is once again providing stronger impulses."
Debt Crisis
At the same time, demand from within the euro area, Germany's biggest export market, is declining as governments from Spain to Ireland cut spending to reduce excessive deficits.
Euro-area growth will slow to 1.5 percent this year from 1.7 percent in 2010, the European Commission forecast on Nov. 29. The Bundesbank predicts German growth will ease to 2 percent.
"While exports will slow, they'll continue to contribute to growth," said Jens Kramer, an economist at Nord LB in Hanover. Germany will continue to be the locomotive of the euro region."

Fairfax, Virginia - The NCAA Men's and Women's Rifle Committee has announced the eight teams who will compete for the 2013 National Collegiate Men's and Women's Rifle Championships early next month.
Held March 8-9 at Ohio State University, these eight teams were selected by combining the average of a team's three highest regular-season aggregate scores (no more than one match per site) with their aggregate from the designated NCAA qualifiers.

Fairfax, Virginia - This year's NRA Metric Championship looks fun, right? The only problem is it's in the summer and we're in February. Camp Perry? The Bianchi Cup? Black Powder Championships? All in the summer too. Where can a competitive shooter find some action during the winter?
The answer is the NRA National Indoor Rifle & Pistol Championships. Shot between multiple sectional tournaments across the country, the Indoor Championships are the NRA's biggest competition with thousands of participants. Between smallbore, air rifle, BB gun light rifle, pistol and air pistol, competitors have a lot of options.
More on the 2013 NRA National Indoor Championships ...
Fairfax, Virginia - After its first week back from the winter break, everything remains in place in the Collegiate Rifle Coaches Association Poll. Most teams have one or two matches left before their conference championships and/or the NCAA qualifiers.
The top seated West Virginia Mountaineers hosted the then-No. 8 Nebraska Cornhuskers at their range January 19, winning the match 4689-4661. The next day, the No. 3 Kentucky Wildcats beat the then-No. 10 Memphis Tigers 4646-4598. Although both the Cornhuskers and Tigers lost, the two teams each moved up a spot in the CRCA Poll. Nebraska now sits at No. 7, trading places with Air Force despite losing to them the weekend prior and Memphis moved to No. 9 after Murray State's defeat at the hands of Jacksonville State.
More on the final leg of NCAA Rifle's 2012-2013 season ...
Fairfax, Virginia - We're almost a month into this year's NRA National Indoor Rifle & Pistol Championships but there's still plenty of time to take part. Unlike NRA's Bianchi Cup or National Matches at Camp Perry, the Indoor Championships are shot through multiple sectional tournaments across the country during the winter.
Your results are sent to the NRA where they're compared to everyone else's and winners are determined. It's a fun way to compete with many other shooters and it's easy to get involved.
After getting bumped to No. 2 for three weeks, West Virginia took the top spot back after an impressive showing at the 2012 USA Shooting Winter Airgun Championships Nov 30 - Dec 2.
Five Mountaineers attended the championships where they faced off against six members of the then-No. 1, and defending NCAA champions, Texas Christian University Horned Frogs and dozens of other collegiate shooters.
As WVU rose to No 1., TCU fell to No. 2., adding another chapter to the tight race the 2012-2013 season has been. NCAA rankings are based on the average of a team's top three qualifying scores and these two teams have been neck and neck all year. I'm sure they are itching to settle things when they face off in the NCAA Rifle Championships this March.
Everything isn't about WVU and TCU though, and still-threatening Kentucky and Alaska-Fairbanks stayed at No. 3 and No. 4 respectively.
Jacksonville State moved up one position to No. 6 and Army, Nebraska, Murray State, Air Force and Memphis sit in that order to round out the top 10.
The season is almost over and teams are preparing for the last slate of matches to begin this week. If the last part of the season is anything like the first, it'll be close all the way to the crowning of the national champion at the NCAA Rifle Championships at Ohio State.
Each March, as much of the country is gathered around televisions watching the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament, I'm out covering some NRA-brand March Madness for the blog. Four years ago we started the NRA Intercollegiate Rifle Club Championships to go alongside the NRA Intercollegiate Pistol Championships and they've created quite a bit of action.

Fairfax, Virginia - In just a week's time it will be 2013 and competitive shooters may begin taking part in the sectional tournaments that make up the NRA National Indoor Rifle and Pistol Championships. Already the NRA's bigest competition with thousands of participants, the addition of BB Gun and Light Rifle this year is expected to give even more of a boost.
Unlike NRA matches shot at one location such as the Bianchi Cup or the National Matchesat Camp Perry, the Indoor Championships are fired at local sectional tournaments whose results are sent to the NRA and pitted against everyone else. Aside from being a fun way to compete with so many other competitors, the Indoor Championships are one of the easiest ways to get involved with the shooting sports.
Fairfax, Virginia - The NCAA Rifle season takes a break this time of year to allow students to focus on their school work and the upcoming winter break. Now that the Collegiate Rifle Coaches Association poll is out, we see there was some change, but not among the top-ranked teams.
More on the NCAA Rifle rankings ...
Fairfax, Virginia - West Virginia has been unseated by defending champions Texas Christian in the most recent Collegiate Rifle Coaches Association poll that now has the Horned Frogs back on top.
After dominating a four-team invitational at Ohio State and setting a school record for team aggregate at 4708, Texas Christian leaped from No. 3 to No. 1 in NCAA Rifle. WVU did not falter as they beat North Carolina State the same weekend, however TCU's big win at Ohio State was enough to propel them to first and end WVU's reign over the poll at five weeks.

On October 18, the Agape Debate Institute made the trip to the New York City Invitational debate tournament located at Bronx Science. Agape Debater Adam Pahlavan of Jericho High School saw a tremendous level of success in the varsity policy debate division. In this division, more than 80 high school teams from all over the nation competed for the championship trophy.
Pahlavan and his team partner Johann Yang, advanced to the "sweet sixteen" round of the playoffs by beating the 12th seed in the tournament. As freshmen, these young men, only faced juniors and seniors in each debate round. After a valiant fight, they lost to the 5th seed in the tournament on a 2-1 decision. This has been one of the best showing of any underclassmen team in the history of this prestigious tournament. Pahlavan also was awarded the 11th best speaker out of a field of over 160 participants.
This is not the first time this spectacular duo as won big at national tournaments. Last year as eight graders, they advanced to the playoffs at the prestigious Harvard University debate tournament. They have advanced to the playoff round both last year and this year at the Yale University. They are also the reigning 2012-2013 New York State champions in novice high school policy debate, which they won last year as eighth graders.
