In January of this year, Oakland Zoo received four new Hamadryas Baboons. We received a male named Martijn with his three females, Maya, Maud, and Krista. They range in age from seven years to sixteen years. They came to us from the Netherlands. During their relocation journey, they had to spend forty-five days in CDC quarantine, Center for Disease Control, at the Bronx Zoo in New York. Once at the zoo, Martijn and his females spent another thirty days of quarantine at Oakland Zoo's New Veterinary Hospital. After a clean bill of health from the veterinarians, the troop were allowed to go to their new home at Baboon Cliffs.
Before letting the new baboons go out on exhibit, they had to get familiar with the night-house and Rafi's group (older baboon troop residing at zoo). This troop consists of Rafi, the harem male, with his three females; Jennifer, Violet, and Dink. Introducing a new troop to the current baboon residents was going to be a big change. Martijn's group adjusted well to their new night-house. They were not able to share space with Rafi's group, but could see them. This is called Howdying; it lets the animals get use to each other without the risk of getting hurt. The process also allowed both males to see that the other male has females. Traditionally, Hamadryas Baboons will respect the other male's females and not try to take them once they are introduced.
After about two weeks, it was time for the baboons to be introduced. First, they had fence to fence access to each other. This means they could only touch each other through the caging. This went well with only minor aggression between the two groups. The males acted in the manner that was expected. They show possession of their females by herding them about the exhibit. The harem males will sometimes show affiliation towards each other by lip-smacking to one another. They will also approach each other, show their hind quarters to each other, then quickly walk away. You may see this behavior out on exhibit, which happens naturally in the wild. Chasing may also occur between the two males over choice spaces in the exhibit, like a sunny log or a shaddy platform. The males do not groom each other, like you will see the females do. The females are more relaxed and will groom a female from the other harem. There is no dominant male. The males are only dominant over their females in their harem.
While Martijn and his females were at the CDC, we received exciting news that one of the females was pregnant. Oakland Zoo had not had a baby baboon in many years. The gestation of baboons is 170 days or five months. Maya had her baby on April 9. She gave birth overnight without complications and by morning had a clean little black bundle clinging to her belly. Baboons give birth at night, so they have time to rest before they have to start foraging or interacting with the other troops. The infant will cling to the mother's chest and nurse in that position for about five weeks. At around five or six weeks, the infant will start trying to ride on the mother's back. At two to three weeks, the infant begins to walk. Maya's infant, Mocha, took her first step at around two weeks. Now at six weeks, Mocha is able to clumsily run about and climb on logs. Mocha stays close to her mother, and Maya is always ready to grab her if she feels Mocha is in danger. It will be another two months before Mocha starts to venture farther from the safety of her mother.
Baboon teeth start to come in at five days old and at three weeks Mocha had eight incisors. It was at that time that Mocha started teething on anything that she could put in her mouth, like twigs, leaves, and food her mother was eating. At one month, the babies start to eat solid food. Mocha has not mastered the art of bringing food to her mouth, so she bends over and takes little bites out of vegetables that are on the ground.
The mother baboon takes care of the infant with no help from the father. Other females in the harem will offer the baby a ride on their backs and will sometimes try to hold the infant, but if the infant vocalizes, the mother is there to quickly take the infant back. Krista, one of Martijn's other females, has shown interest in little Mocha and often offers her back for a ride or tries to hold Mocha. At her age, Mocha is full of energy and unless she is sleeping or nursing, she wants to be free to explore her exhibit.
Mocha has many more milestones ahead of her. She will stay with her mother for about ten months. At that time, her baby black hair will have turned brown, no longer signaling she is an infant. At this time, her mother will also start to push her away. She will still be able to stay with the troop, but she will no longer get to nurse or have free rides on her mother's back. It will be time for Mocha to find her place within the troop.
Please note, you can observe some of the behaviors mentioned in this blog by visiting Oakland Zoo's Baboon Cliffs.

Global Day of Prayer for Peace in Iraq
Friday, August 1, 2014
Aug. 6, 2014--Feast of the Transfiguration
"Please stop, I ask you with all my heart, it's time to stop. Stop, please." Inspired by these words of Pope Francis (June 27, 2014), the international pontifical foundation Aid to the Church in Need, united with His Beatitude Louis Rafael Sako, the Chaldean Catholic Patriarch of Iraq, appeals to all persons of good will to join in a Global Day of Prayer for Peace to be held on August 6, 2014—the Feast of the Transfiguration.The feast of Transfiguration marks the moment when Jesus, on Mount Tabor, appears to three of his disciples in a state of glory, shortly before His ultimate trial on Calvary. This feast holds out a sign of hope for humanity: it is a source of courage when obstacles appear impossible to surmount; a sign that light is stronger than darkness; and testimony that death can turn into life. Meant to be observed in churches and homes across the country, this Global Day of Prayer in the midst of so much suffering in Iraq—particularly for the ancient Christian community of Mosul—tells the world at large that US Christians have not forgotten and abandoned their suffering brothers and sisters.Patriarch Sako has personally composed the Prayer for Peace:Lord,The plight of our countryis deep and the suffering of Christiansis severe and frightening.Therefore, we ask you Lordto spare our lives, and to grant us patience, and courage to continue our witness of Christian valueswith trust and hope.Lord, peace is the foundation of life;Grant us the peace and stability that will enable usto live with each other without fear and anxiety,and with dignity and joy.Glory be to you forever.The Patriarch also said: "Let us unite our voices and hearts before the Lord of peace. May the light of Tabor fill the hearts of all suffering people with consolation and hope. May the message of Tabor, through our prayers, inspire the leaders of Iraq to sacrifice personal interests for the common good and welfare."Please click here and join ACN's candle vigil for Iraq.

Don't tell anyone, but I think I'm a closet beauty junkie. I can't get enough!
I was so excited when L'Oreal Paris invited me to visit their beauty suite at the Emmy's Luxury Lounge! It was held inside the beautiful Four Seasons hotel in Beverly Hills, on Saturday.
Whenever I get invited to an event I honestly don't know what to expect.
For example, I almost bumped into Modern Family star Eric Stonestreet, who plays Cameron Tucker, when I exited the elevator. I also spotted Jerry Ferrara who plays Turtle on Entourage. He's too cute!
I made my way to the L'Oreal Paris Beauty Suite and was greeted, offered a yummy cocktail, and headed to get a manicure. I was so flustered when I arrived, but the amazing Danielle from L'Oreal and Cindy from Soy Fashionista quickly calmed my nerves. Thanks ladies!!
After my mani and chatting with celebrity makeup artist and L'Oreal Paris consulting expert Johnny Lavoy, I went over to get my hair done. Johnny is amazing by the way.
Before I knew it, my hair was styled and it was time to go. I'd like to send a BIG thank you to L'Oreal Paris for the invite and pampering. Let's do it again sometime!!
Here's what I wore…
Check out photos from the beauty suite event below…
Disclosure: This is not a sponsored post. I did receive a complimentary gift bag from L'Oreal Paris. The above is my true and honest opinion.

Ron Seman: Everyone has a hero. My hero is Chester J. Koch, known affectionately as "Chester" by a legion of fans everywhere.
I first became acquainted with Chester, who is now deceased, in 1972 when I was writing proclamations and responding to letters addressed to Cleveland Mayor Ralph J. Perk.
Friends in the veterans movement told me that I made a serious mistake when I told him I was a veteran. I soon became a part of his team in performing volunteer duties on behalf of veterans in Cleveland and throughout the state. After all, he was the City Coordinator of Patriotic Activities, a service he admirably performed for more than 15 mayors. And by the way, I was always impressed when he telephoned one of the corporate leaders whose secretary put his call through without hesitation. Usually, Chester was after some money to fund a favorite veterans program.
Chester had friends in high places. He contacted his close friend, Newton D. Baker, the secretary of war, who made arrangements for him to join the Army where he served as a mess sergeant of the 308th Motor Supply Train, 83rd Division , during World War I, in France.
He did not miss a Cleveland parade marking a patriotic observance for decades, starting in 1933, and was marshal and organizer for most of them.
He maintained so much respect for the flag of his country and was interest in its proper display that he once took on the U.S. Air Force in 1961. He protested placing the flag emblem at the rear of the jet used by President Kennedy. On another occasion, he telephoned the White House to correct the flag position during a President Nixon telecast. His love of flag and country earned him the title of "Mr. Veteran."
In his job, Chester personally shook hands with some 450,000 area men and women he saw off to the wars. He made preparations for more than 1,000 military burials and was always available on a 24 hours basis to resolve the problems of traveling service personnel, veterans and their families.

Hands and wrists are the most common location for deformities caused by
rheumatoid arthritis. As joint damage progresses, the joints between the hand
and fingers (metacarpophalangeal joints—MCPs) swell and move upward (dorsal
subluxation). The tendons over the joints slip and cause the fingers to bend
toward the little finger (ulnar drift). In addition, muscles in the hand thin
and weaken, creating valleys between the long tendons.

DEBRIS which piled up under Worcester Bridge during the recent floods has appeared again.
Worcestershire County Council and the Environment Agency joined forces to clear the rubble while the road passing over the city centre landmark was closed almost a fortnight ago.
But the same is unlikely to happen this time around after the Agency said the current debris "is not causing a flood risk".
"We have an agreement with Worcestershire County Council, Worcester City Council and the Canal & River Trust about clearing debris from the River Severn in Worcester," said an Agency spokesperson.
"The debris currently under Worcester Bridge is not causing a flood risk."
The county council says the debris is not new and has become uncovered since water levels dropped.
"(We) fully support colleagues from our partner agencies, including the Environment Agency, to investigate any measures to help prevent future flooding and to help with the current flood recovery efforts," said Cllr Anthony Blagg, cabinet member for environment.
The county council says it "made sense" to help the Agency last time while equipment was available and bridge closure in place.

Ball Park Franks: Singles
Now you can enjoy a single dog fresh from the grill (or microwave) and save the rest for the next game. Not as good as enjoying a dog in the park, but also not nearly as pricey. For rookie pitcher Adam Miller, franks are probably the least of the perks he is enjoying now that he has joined the Cleveland Indians bullpen. Be on the lookout.

"I was a little nervous that the picture quality would be poor since it is a decent sized pic, and you can't really tell how it will look from the previews. However, the picture and the invites came out perfectly! Our designer was extremely fast and got back to us within 12 hours every time until we were 100% happy with the preview. We added "Together with their families" above our names on the right page and it was perfect! Very happy!"
"I love my invitations! This was a simple yet elegant way for me to invite my guests to our wedding. Our picture on the invitation came out beautiful. I love how I was able to print on the front and back of the reception card, making it easy for both myself and my guests. Highly recommended for a simple, chic, and elegant girl!!"
"After a few days of search; I finally found this site and I'm excited with my invitation! The cards are easy to customize with so many designs, fonts and colors to chose from. This one caught my eye and I just received them in the mail. Right on time I must say! The paper quality is rich, the print for my photograph is beautiful and the envelopes are thick. It's everything we hoped it'd be and more. I would highly recommend getting this. It gave us an opportunity to share a little bit of who we are as a couple on the invitation as well. In my opinion, it makes it more personal and different. Different is good."
"We loved these invitations. The card was nice thick quality but didn't go over the weight to use a normal stamp (Canadian stamp). The picture was excellent quality. The editor did a great job to unify the font (although did make a grammatical error but we caught it on review)."
"Could not be happier with this product or the service I received during the ordering and review process. We added multiple customized features, which were all implemented beautifully. The picture we chose printed clear and consistently."

Honey Shakespeare: Details, the metrosexual male's magazine of choice, is known for popularizing faddish cultural buzzwords (like "metrosexual"). The latest, from the current issue: "Lesbros." What's a lesbro, you ask? According to the magazine, it's a straight man who enjoys hanging out with, but not sexually pursuing, lesbians. And get this: "The term lesbro was coined by Honey Harris, a DJ for Santa Fe's KBAC," Details says. Move over, Cormac McCarthy. Harris tells Details the word, as she coined it, had a different meaning: "I used it to describe lesbians like myself who like to hang out with guys but sleep with women."
Of course, there's already a term for straight women who hang out with gay men…What about lesbians who hang out with straight guys in hopes of sleeping with them? Oh, that's right: The word is "imaginary."
No Castro Speeches Here: The Northern New Mexico Central Labor Council will hold a health care reform rally on Labor Day—the Monday you should get off, Sept. 7—from noon-3 pm at the Santa Fe Railyard Park. There will be food, and Joe West will play "labor songs," SEA-CWA Local 7076 President Robin Gould says. Gould promises speeches will be limited to three minutes because, in past years, "they would go on for an hour and a half…enough is enough."
US Dems Rep. Ben Ray Luján and Sen. Tom Udall will be there, but not Sen. Jeff Bingaman, who is playing a key role in the health care debate and draws Gould's ire for not supporting the Employee Free Choice Act (which would make union organizing easier). Gould wonders if this is Bingaman's last term. Last year on a lobbying trip she asked his staff that question and "they denied that his plan was to not run again and get a nice fat cat's job," Gould says.
Aw, Natural: Two Santa Fe legislators are among the handful of state lawmakers to receive 100 percent ratings on the Conservation Voters New Mexico's annual scorecard.
Rep. Brian Egolf and Sen. Peter Wirth, both D-Santa Fe, each cast 11 votes on bills in agreement with CVNM on issues ranging from water quality to green-industry investment.
Other Santa Fe Democratic legislators didn't score nearly as well: House Speaker Ben Luján earned 60 percent (down from 81 percent in 2008); Rep. Luciano "Lucky" Varela, 75 percent (down from 88 percent) and Sen. Phil Griego, 20 percent (down from 74 percent).
Republican leadership flunked the environmental group's test with House Minority Whip Keith Gardner, R-Chaves, scoring 11 percent and Senate Minority Floor Leader Stuart Ingle, R-Chaves, scoring 8 percent.

Jays' offensive struggles continue vs. Samardzija
Hutchison gives up three runs, but support is lacking
OAKLAND -- The Blue Jays' series in Oakland couldn't have come to an end soon enough for a club struggling to score runs and suddenly searching for answers.
The four-game set vs the A's basically turned into a worst-case scenario for the former division leaders. Toronto was not only swept out of town but it also lost a core player in Edwin Encarnacion, who says he will miss at least two weeks because of a quad injury.
Without Encarnacion in the lineup Sunday afternoon, the Blue Jays' offensive problems went from bad to worse as A's right-hander Jeff Samardzija held them to one run over seven innings in a 4-2 loss at O.co Coliseum.
"We got shut down big time here," Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. "In three of the games, early in the games, we had a chance to do some damage, open up the game, and take the lead. Today was the perfect example, groundout, yesterday same kind of thing.
"That's our chance, with the right guys up, it didn't happen. We pitched good enough to win every one of these games but it didn't happen."
The Blue Jays scored a total of four runs in those four games while adding five extra-base hits and eight walks. A home run by Steve Tolleson in the ninth inning was the only thing that saved the club from going four games without a homer for the first time this season.
The last time the Blue Jays were swept in a four-game series by Oakland was May 22-24, 1981. The last time Toronto was swept in a series of three games vs. the A's was July 31 to Aug. 2, 2000. The lack of production with runners in scoring position certainly didn't help this time around as Toronto went 0-for-20 in those crucial at-bats.
This loss likely stung even a little bit more than normal because it came against a pitcher the Blue Jays were hoping to acquire prior to the non- waiver Trade Deadline. Toronto had been linked to Samardzija dating all the way back to the offseason but in the end it was the A's who pulled the trigger on the deal and he was almost flawless in his Oakland debut.
Samardzija allowed one run in the sixth inning on a groundout by Melky Cabrera but that was it. The former Cubs ace surrendered one run on four hits and one walk while striking out five to make a strong first impression with his new team. The only real chance besides the sixth came in the first when Jose Bautista grounded into an inning-ending double play with runners on the corners.
"He was pretty unbelievable today," A's catcher Derek Norris said of Samardzija. "It was even better than I anticipated. Definitely had some adrenaline going through his veins today, and you could tell the passion and the excitement in his body language."
Right-hander Drew Hutchison took the loss for Toronto, but just like has been the case for the past two weeks, it was another example of a Blue Jays starter giving his team a chance to win. Hutchison allowed one run in the first and two runs in the fourth but did enough to keep his team in the game.
Hutchison was charged with the three runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out four in 5 2/3 innings. It was the first time in 14 games that a Toronto starter didn't record at least six innings and the staff has a 3.14 ERA over that same span.
"It's tough, I thought I threw the ball real well," Hutchison said. "With the exception of two walks in the sixth. Other than that, the only thing I really want back was the 1-2 to [Jed] Lowrie, the changeup, I didn't execute it, I didn't bury it. But other than that I thought I threw the ball pretty well."
Toronto's lengthy road trip will now continue with three games against the Angels. The Blue Jays will then finish the first half with a series in Tampa Bay before taking a much-needed four-day break for the All-Star Game.
"We're just not very good right now," Gibbons said. "We have a couple of guys injured, but not everybody. We have guys that are regulars who are cold right now. I don't necessarily think I see something different with the approach, we're just not producing."

Adobe Generation Is Back! 5 New Courses To Hone Your Creative Skills
November 12, 2013
Following the huge success of Adobe Generation last year, we're excited to announce that it's back for the 2013/14 academic year – and it's even bigger than before. We're rolling out five new free online courses for up to 50,000 students (aged 14-19) and teachers across the country, adding Video Production and Apps Design courses to the Photo Imaging, Animation and Games Design sessions that we offered last year.
We know from our own research that there is growing demand from employers for so called 'new creatives' – they want a multi skilled workforce. By introducing the extra courses to Adobe Generation, we hope to support industry in creating this new workforce, and young people themselves in becoming multi-skilled, by giving them the opportunity to develop a wider range of digital design skills.
Adobe Generation is a great resource for anyone looking to expand their creative skills. Each of the five courses on offer will run over a five week period, with one live session taking place over Adobe Connect every Tuesday. During each weekly session, we, together with experts from each field, will be teaching a different creative discipline – for example, how to plot a story line of a game, or cut and edit a video into a final narrative sequence. We then set weekly tasks for students to do in between sessions so they can put those skills into practice, using a free trial of Adobe Creative Cloud.
In addition to learning practical skills, students will also be able to explore different creative careers firsthand through the help of our industry experts. This year we've got a raft of fantastic people lined up, including world class fashion photographer Kevin Foord and national newspaper Photo Editor Jason Brake, who will lead each session and share their own experiences of working in their chosen profession.
On completion of the course, students will be given an Adobe certificate to validate their skills and bolster their portfolio ahead of applying for university or a job. They will also be encouraged to continue their learning through the Adobe Certified Associate (ACA) – our national qualification validating entry-level skills in digital communications using Adobe tools.
Details of the new set of courses are as follows…
- Photo Imaging – runs each Tuesday from 19th November – 17th December at 7- 8:30pm
- Animation – runs each Tuesday from 7th January – 4th February at 7- 8:30pm
- Video – runs each Tuesday from 25th February – 25th March at 7- 8:30pm
- Games Design –runs each Tuesday from 29th April – 27th May at 7- 8:30pm
- App Design – runs each Tuesday from 10th June – 8th July at 7- 8:30pm
So what are you waiting for? Sign up today at www.adobegeneration.com and follow all the latest #AdobeGen updates on Twitter.

Students' videos focus on bullying
Byline info is not available
A computer literacy class at Carroll High School created videos about bullying. One video of about 20 submitted was chosen to compete at Governor Terry Branstad's Bullying Summit in Des Moines. The chosen video was Melissa Miller's, who is a freshman this year. From left to right: Kelli McCaulley, Shelly Hutchinson, Rylie Riesberg, Hannah Patterson, Micaela Bretey, Brent VanErdewyk, Melissa Miller, Bryce Widdel, Nate Danzer, Dakota Boyer, Dayton Hoffman, Maria Cullen, Blake Toms, James Dirkx and Jason Ramos.
You can't always tell what a victim of bullying looks like.
Sometimes it's a girl with strawberry-blond hair and hazel eyes.
Sometimes it's a boy who's smaller than everyone else.
Sometimes it's you.
Students at Carroll High School created videos to help stop bullying.
About 20 videos were submitted for teachers to rate, and one of the videos, made by freshman Melissa Miller, was sent to Gov. Terry Branstad's bullying-prevention summit.
The video begins with the blond girl's face.
The words: "If you really knew me, you would know that I am called ugly and a worthless human being. Someone told me that if I died, no one would care," flash over her face.
The video then moves to a picture of a boy. This time it says: "If you knew me, you would know that I hate school. I come home with bruises from big kids who think I am a punching bag. If I told teachers, they would beat me harder and call me a wimp and a snitch."
The last picture is of a different blond girl. "If you really knew me, you'd know that I am called some terrible names. I spend more time crying in the guidance office than I do in classes. I leave early from every class so I can avoid the nasty words I hear in the hallway."
The video goes on to ask, "If you really knew us, would you defend us? Are you one of us?"
Then it says, "Stand up for yourself! Stop bullying. Stand up for the silent! Be a friend! Love others!"
The video suggests that students begin anti-bullying clubs at schools to prevent bullying.
The stories in Miller's video were made up, but for many the consequences of bullying are something they struggle with every day.
The students who made the videos in Kelly McCaulley's computer literacy class said they found the project fascinating because they were able to see different perspectives on bullying through each other's projects.
Micaela Bretey said she watched YouTube videos of real people struggling with bullying.
"We watched kids who were writing on flash cards, and they were talking about suicide," Bretey said.
Bretey said she worked with a group to create her video.
Her group's video told the story of a victim of bullying. She said the bullies in the video knocked books out of the victim's arms and made rude comments to the victim while she was doing her hair in the bathroom.
Bretey said that at the end of the video they filmed a pair of shoes sitting on the ground and asked how it would feel to be in the victim's shoes.
The videos were supposed to be about what the school is doing to stop bullying or how it could improve on its anti-bullying policies.
Miller said she added in a line her video about an anti-bullying club because she thinks it would be a place for students to create new friends.
She said if a person had more friends maybe they wouldn't be bullied. She said if the person was still getting bullied at least they would know someone else cared and knew what they were going through.
Miller said the group could also help because some kids are afraid to go to teachers about bullying because they are afraid the bullying will just get worse.
The students all agreed that Carroll High School was trying its best to prevent bullying.
Bretey said about once a week students watch videos about bullying and talk about what they see outside of class.
She said most of the bullying happens online instead of in school so there's only so much the school can do.
Bretey said that kids can now get online and send texts to other students and make it look like the text came from someone else's phone.
The winner of the governor's contest was Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn Middle School, which won $500 for its school. Its video is up to 37,165 views.
That shows a group of students on a bus with signs saying that 43 percent of reported bullying at HMS starts on the bus.
The video features seventh-grade students who call themselves the bionic bystanders who help a student get his backpack from a group of bullies who took it while on the bus.
The winning video at the summit was chosen by how many viewers it had during the summit.
Miller's video had 746 views before the judging began.
Bullying is defined by the Iowa Code as: "Any electronic, written, verbal or physical act or conduct toward a student which is based on any actual or perceived trait or characteristic of the student which creates an objectively hostile school environment."
To be considered bullying, the situation must either place a student in reasonable fear or harm to a student's person or property, have a substantially detrimental effect on the student's physical or mental effect, have the effect of substantially interfering with a student's academic performance or have the effect of substantially interfering with a student's ability to participate in or benefit from the services, activities or privileges provided by a school.
Branstad has been making a push recently to end bullying in schools.
During the anti-bullying summit in Des Moines, Branstad launched a website with the Department of Education to allow students, teachers and parents to report incidents of bullying at their schools.
The website will release annual figures to school districts to give them an indication of how many students are being bullied.
The website is www.reportbullyingiowa.com.
Warning signs your child is being bullied:
— Student comes home from school with ripped clothing or damaged books.
— Student has bruises, cuts or scratches that he or she can't explain.
— Student appears afraid or reluctant to go to school in the morning.
— Student chooses an illogical route going to and from school.
— Student has bad dreams or cries in his or her sleep.
— Student has lost interest in school or his or her grades suffer.
— Student appears sad or depressed or experiences unexpected mood shifts or irritability.
— Student requests more money from you than usual.
— Student seems socially isolated with few friends.
Warning signs your child could be a bully:
— Student has a strong need to dominate and subdues others. Student asserts himself or herself with power and threats to get his or her way.
— Student intimidates his or her siblings or kids in the neighborhood.
— Student brags about his actual or imagined superiority over others.
— Student is hot-tempered, easily angered, impulsive and has a low frustration tolerance.
— Student has difficulty conforming to rules or tolerating adversities and delays.
— Student is oppositional, defiant and aggressive toward adults, including teachers and parents.
— Student is antisocial or displays criminal behavior, often starting at an early age.
What parents can do:
— Remember that hitting back is never a choice at school and should not be encouraged.
— Encourage your child to walk away and tell an adult if he or she feels threatened or bullying.
— Talk about safe ways to act in different situations that might be dangerous. Identify safe houses or stores where a child can go.
— Give him or her a telephone number of an available adult to call if he or she is afraid or needs help dealing with a situation.
— Teach your child how to report bullying incidents in an effective way. Adults are less likely to perceive the child's report as tattling if he or she includes what is being done to them that makes them feel uncomfortable, who is doing it, what he or she has done to try to solve the problem and a clear explanation of what he or she needs from the adult to get the bully to quit.
— Brainstorm and practice strategies with your child to avoid further victimization.

Bats lead 1 - 0 after a half inning. If they win, they will gain a game on all teams ahead of them in the wild card race.
Heaven forbid, Chacin blew a save by giving up two in the top of the ninth. But the AZL Reds loaded the bases in the bottom and Steve Selsky won the game, 4-3, with a single. Carlos Gonzalez had an excellent start over 5.2 IP (1 R, 4 H, 8 K).

I don't think I've ever seen anybody mention Quintin Berry as a prospect. And I'm not sure he is one. But I think it's worth asking the question. Here's where he stands.
Age: 26
Playing at: AA Carolina
Position: CF
Defense: I don't know.
He leads off for the Mudcats. Just singled, stole and scored on a hit from Soto to give Carolina a 1-0 lead.
Anyway, whaddya think?
He's in his prime now, and only in AA. Not really a prospect. Could possibly pull out a Freel-type career though.Age: 26
The bullpen struggled and Billings lost the second game 7-4. Nick O'Shea (2-3), jockeying between catcher and first base, is up to .302.
If O'Shea can play catcher, that'd be a nice bat to have at that spot.
Behind Barnhart, Grandal, and Mesoraco, that's really, really nice depth.
"You can learn little from victory. You can learn everything from defeat."
-- Christy Matthewson
"Show me a good loser and I'll show you an idiot."
-- Leo Durocher
Berry now has 4 SB on the night, up to 38, and both runs scored. Carolina leads 2-0 after 8. James Avery went 7 innings.
Gustafson completes the final two innings with no issues, and Carolina actually wins a shutout, 2-0.

Security Council: Statement by Ambassador Wittig on Working Methods
(Security Council: Statement as delivered by Ambassador Wittig in an Open Debate on Working Methods)
"Thank you, Mr. President, for scheduling today's open debate and for the useful concept note. We are also very grateful for the work undertaken by the Chairman of the Working Group, as well as for his presentation today.
Germany welcomes the increased efforts of the Council to interact with and seek input from a broad range of relevant actors, including the wider UN membership. Open debates, Arria formula meetings and the holding of interactive dialogues are regularly and successfully used formats to ensure communication and exchange of information that are vital for the Council's functioning. Also, the briefings provided by the Department for Political Affairs are a particularly important improvement, and we call on all Council members to consider conducting one such "horizon scanning" during their respective presidency. We also welcome the increased use of modern technology such as Video-teleconferencing with enhancing the timeliness and efficiency of the Council's action.
Mr. President,
An interactive and dynamic relationship with a multitude of interlocutors such as thematic Special Representatives of the Secretary General, is crucial to the fulfilment of the Council's mandate. And the interactive dialogue of the Council held earlier this year with the Chairpersons of the Peacebuilding Commission's country configurations has clearly highlighted the potential for further cooperation between both bodies. For example, the participation of the Chairpersons also in Council consultations should be envisaged, not least to ensure a broader peacebuilding perspective in the Council.
We also support the enhanced involvement of regional organizations in the work of the Council. These organizations can play a crucial role in furthering conflict prevention, mediation, and peacebuilding in their respective regions, and thus effectively complement the role of the Council. I should like to recall in this regard the successful High Level Meeting held on 26 September on Peace and Security in the Middle East which focussed on the cooperation between the UN and the Arab League.
Mr. President,
While much has been achieved to improve the Council's Working Methods, we are looking forward to the completion of work that is currently in progress. I'd therefore like to provide a brief overview on where Germany stands on some of the main points:
- Regarding penholderships and chairmanships of subsidiary bodies, we are of the view that all Council members are eligible to fulfil these functions, and that elected members should therefore increasingly be assigned penholderships. Germany is currently holding the pen for Afghanistan as well as the chairmanship of several subsidiary organs. This has been a very positive experience;
- Consultations on the appointment of penholders and chairs of subsidiary bodies for the following year should take place soon after the elections of non-permanent members and before the end of the year, and should be fully inclusive;
- The mandates of working groups should be flexible and open to necessary adaptions. In this regard I should like to state that Germany is ready to consider the expansion of the mandate of the Council Working Group on the International Tribunals so as to also include issues relating to states' non-cooperation in the context of Council referrals to the ICC;
- Of enhanced interaction in the context of open debates, Germany views these debates as an important opportunity for Council members to benefit from the input of non-member states. We therefore support the early circulation of concept notes to all UN members, as well as the delivery of concluding remarks by the Presidency;
- Both the Council's annual report as well as the monthly assessments can be improved further. The Presidency responsible for the annual report should continue to informally consult with non-members well ahead of the report, and report to Council members on the suggestions and expectations raised in these consultations. Since the monthly assessment is prepared under the responsibility of the Presidency, it should allow for a more substantive reflection of the Presidency's views and analysis of the Council's work during the respective month;
Mr. President,
The reform of working methods is part of a larger, comprehensive reform. Let me therefore be clear: We must not stop at addressing working methods only. What is required is a structural reform of the Security Council – a reform that makes it more representative of the world where we live in today. A reform, that lends the decisions taken by the Council more credibility and therefore greater effectiveness.
The desire for real, meaningful reform is evident more than ever. An overwhelming majority of member states - small and large, from the developing and the developed world – sees a true structural reform as the best way forward. Anything else would only address the symptoms, and not the root causes of the problem.
I thank you, Mr. President !"

Kolkata, Sep 23 (IANS) West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee Monday said a special drive beginning Nov 5 will boost the availability of jobs to unemployed adults under the 100 days work scheme implemented in rural areas.
"A special mission mode would be launched Nov 5 to Nov 30 in addition to the ongoing drives," Banerjee told mediapersons after holding an administrative meeting in Purulia district.
The scheme would provide 100 days of jobs to unemployed adults under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA).
Criticising the central government for failing to fulfil electricity requirements in the district, Banerjee said the state government would take the initiative to provide facilities for continuous power.
"The central government was supposed to provide electricity here through one of its agencies but it has failed to do so. So, our government would provide power to below poverty line residents by December and to above poverty line inhabitants in the next six to eight months," she said.
The chief minister revealed plans to introduce onion farming in the arid regions of Purulia, a district in the western part of the state where the Maoists were active for long.
Banerjee also unveiled plans to open an engineering college and a slew of tourism projects.
Banerjee said a fair price medicine shop and fair price diagnostic centre, including facilities for dialysis, would also come up in the district.

Welcome to the Wikia Book Club – a place where the Wikia community can together read and discuss novels currently heating up the pop culture zeitgeist. To kick the tires on this new program, we're piggy-backing our launch off the announcement that all seven books in the Harry Potter franchise are coming to the Kindle Owners' Lending Library. As such, we're going to be reading and discussing the first book in the "Boy Who Lived" saga, The Sorcerer's Stone.
Whether it's your first or fifth time reading the story, join us via live chats (schedule outlined below) on the Harry Potter Wiki to discuss:
Monday, July 2 at 5:00 p.m. PST
Read Chapter 1 ("The Boy Who Lived") through Chapter 8 ("The Potions Master"). Discussion topics to include:
- How many of you just read the book for the first time? How many of you are rereading the Harry Potter series?
- Throughout the story, we share Harry's point of view. We see what he sees and experience what he experiences. In the first chapter, however, we are shown Mr. Dursley's point of view as he drives to work, sees a cat reading a map, and encounters oddly dressed people on the streets. Rowling could have given us a more straightforward third-person story without any particular point of view. Why does she choose to show us Mr. Dursley's thoughts and reaction in this first chapter?
- The title of each of the chapters provides some clues as to what will occur in each. Do the titles tell the whole truth? How do they reveal some of the more symbolic meaning of the story?
- How does the Hogwarts world compare with the Muggle world? Does Rowling want us to make such a comparison? What were your first impressions of Hogwarts?
- How would Harry be different if Dumbledore decided that he should be raised in the magical world, instead of with the Dursleys? Did Dumbledore make the right decision?
Monday, July 16 at 5:00 p.m. PST
Read Chapter 9 ("The Midnight Duel") through Chapter 16 ("The Man with Two Faces"). Discussion topics to include:
- Many novels of high fantasy borrow from the traditional stories of fairytales, myths and legends. The dog Fluffy which guards the trapdoor at Hogwarts School resembles Cerberus, the three-heads dog which guards the underworld of Greek mythology. What other creatures from traditional tales are paralleled in the story? How does each of these creatures play a pivotal role in the advancing plot?
- Quirrell tells Harry that, "There is no good and evil, there is only power, and those too weak to seek it." Do you agree with this? Is this the reality of the world? Or if good and evil do exist, what makes them so? Which is more important in the world, power, or good and evil?
- At the end of Harry's adventures, when the Sorceror's Stone has been safely destroyed, Dumbledore reveals to Harry that he devised the Mirror of Erised in the knowledge that Harry would succeed where Voldemort would fail. This admission raises the question of whether Dumbledore orchestrates other parts of Harry's adventures too. Does he know, for instance, that the troll will be let into Hogwarts, and does he foresee Harry's defeat of the troll? Is it possible that Dumbledore has a godlike foreknowledge of the whole story from beginning to end?
- Besides harry Potter himself, who was your favorite character in the book? Or which character did you find most interesting? Why? What details did Rowling provide that made that character come alive in your mind in all his or her complexity? Did you learn more about the character from their words, their appearance, or their actions? Did your first impressions of the character remain unaltered, or did you change your opinion of the character as the story went on? Do any of the characters remind you of someone you know?
- If you could talk to the author, is there a question you would ask her?
And if you haven't done so already, sign-up to win a FREE Amazon Kindle Fire and a one-year subscription to Amazon prime. Details can be found here. And be sure to follow us on Good Reads and Twitter . While you're at it, tweet @WikiReads with the title of the next novel you'd like us to Book Club.

R&D Sponsored by
Researchers at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) have created nanoscale droplets that can be used to deliver ingredients to skin. As reported in the Sept. 4, 2008, edition of Nature, the droplets are smaller than the human cell, allowing them to penetrate the skin to deliver ingredients such as pharmaceuticals.
A double emulsion was created by Timothy Deming, professor and chair of the UCLA department of bioengineering, and his team, by which a water droplet was located inside an oil droplet in water. The researchers were able to make these molecules stable at a sub-100-nanometer size range, a feat reportedly done for the first time.
According to the researchers, including Thomas G. Mason, a UCLA associate professor of chemistry and physics and founder of thermal microrheology, the nanoemulsions can be used for drug delivery and anti-cancer applications.
Deming and Mason have made nanoemulsions containing billions of double nanodroplets. According to the two researchers, both water-soluble and water-insoluble drugs can be loaded inside the droplets together, delivering the drugs simultaneously in the same delivery package.
This approach could be used for a combination therapy to deliver two drugs simultaneously at a fixed ratio into the same location. The researchers speculate that it might be possible to insert a pharmaceutical inside a droplet and inject the droplet inside a cell, which the researchers currently are working on.

A Car for a Parish in Nepal
Friday, January 11, 2013
Success Story
In 2007, following centuries of a strongly Hindu absolutist monarchy, Nepal became a secular state. Nonetheless, it continues to be strongly influenced by the Hindu establishment, and Hinduism is still regarded de facto as the state religion. Hindus are forbidden by law to convert to Christianity, and non-Hindus are not even permitted to establish their own cemeteries, a situation that obliges Christians and members of other religions to resort to emergency measures, such as burying several of their dead in one grave, for example. But despite these restrictions, there are still some 8,000 Catholics living in this mountainous country, which lies between India and China.
The Church of the Assumption of Our Lady in the capital, Kathmandu, was the first ever Catholic church in Nepal, when it was consecrated in 1995 by Cardinal Josef Tomko, the then Prefect of the Vatican's Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples. Many of the Catholic faithful, however, live scattered throughout the Valley of Kathmandu, and the cathedral parish accordingly has a number of mission stations, some of which are extremely remote. As a result, there is an urgentneed for a robust vehicle that can cope with the rough roads and with difficult off-road conditions as well. However, the previous vehicle, which was already several years old when the parish took it over, was finally deemed beyond repair.
The parish appealed to ACN for help, and we responded with $29,300. Now the parish priest of the Assumption parish, Father Robin Rai, has written to ACN to thank us: "The Parish of the Assumption of Our Lady and all its faithful are deeply grateful to ACN and to all its benefactors. I thank you and all at ACN for this wonderful gift, which is a true blessing for us, and I assure you of our grateful prayers."
