SACRAMENTO, Calif.-March 21, 2013: The Sacramento State University and the UC Davis campuses are proactively educating and engaging their students to promote the concept and importance of sober driving. This is especially relevant as spring break approaches for both campuses, starting March 20 until April 1. Many students on these campuses have family that live locally, or they simply choose to stay local during the break. In recent years students have also enjoyed nearby attractions during spring break, so promoting road safety and non-drinking sober drivers is vital.
"It's a great way to get students in the positive habit of thinking about their sober driver to get home safely"
One proactive measure utilized by both campuses is partnering with RADD--The Entertainment Industry's Voice for Road Safety. RADD's efforts were lauded in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's report showing DUI deaths in California declining from 924 in 2009 to 774 in 2010 and 774 in 2011.
As a regional team, the campuses launched promotion of the RADD Designated Driver Rewards Program over the past few years. Each year, popular establishments near the campuses are recruited to become RADD Partner Establishments, agreeing to provide some kind of incentive for non-drinking designated drivers. They practice responsible beverage service and provide incentives such as free soda, ice tea, or food samples to non-drinking designated drivers. This partnership with the local establishments makes up the RADD Designated Driver Rewards Program and is then promoted to students on campus, encouraging them to utilize non-drinking designated drivers when they go out.
Currently there are over 40 RADD Partner Establishments registered in the Davis and Sacramento areas. A list of these establishments is distributed on-campus to the students, and is also available on the website College is RADD . Students enjoy the simplicity of visiting the venues, identifying who in their group is the non-drinking driver, and receiving their free incentive. "It's a great way to get students in the positive habit of thinking about their sober driver to get home safely," says Amelia Stults, Health Outreach Coordinator at Sacramento State.
Other proactive efforts include supporting fun, large-scale campus events that highlight the importance of non-drinking designated drivers in a relaxed and engaging way. One such event will be on March 21st 10am-2pm in the Serna Plaza in front of the bookstore at the Sacramento State University campus, 6000 J Street. The event is called "Safer Spring Break" and activities will include games and prize-giveaways. The brightly wrapped RADD Designated Driver Car, a 2012 Scion xB, donated by Toyota Motor Sales USA, will be showcased at this event. There will also be evening activities in the Residence Halls from 7pm-10pm.
The California College DUI Awareness Project is a partnership between RADD and the University of California, Irvine's Health Education Center, and is funded by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety through federal funds from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The project brings the RADD Designated Driver Rewards Program to 17 college and university campuses across the state, encouraging the use of designated drivers, cabs and public transportation to avoid driving under the influence.
Campuses that have signed onto the California DUI Awareness Project are: San Diego State University, UC San Diego, University of San Diego, CSU San Marco, CSU Fullerton, UC Irvine, Concordia University, Orange Coast College, CSU Sacramento, UC Davis, University of the Pacific, University of Southern California/USC-KECK Campus, UCLA, CSU Northridge, CSU San Bernardino, University of Redlands and UC Riverside.
WHO: Sacramento State University, UC Davis and RADD -- The Entertainment Industry's Voice for Road Safety.
WHAT: Spring Break events created to proactively educate students about sober driving and road safety.
WHERE: Sacramento and Davis, CA
WHEN: March 21-April 1, 2013

Iteneriary is one of the dozens of words that bring me to a complete standstill. I can be typing along at a brisk pace when my brain feeds a word like itenirary down to my flying fingers, and they freeze over the keyboard like mummified buzzard claws.
Itinerary. I-T ... E? ... I? Pretty sure it's I. N is easy. Another E? or is it A? ... R ... Two Rs? A? A-R-Y. Itinerrary.

Mabon Celebration: September 17, 2016
|Adam & Ben at the 2015 Mabon

The Autumnal Equinox: the magical time when the day and the night are divided equally and the cooling air and quieter tempos of autumn beckon. We call it MAY'-bahn. And for more than a decade on Planet Bluegrass we've celebrated with our Festivarian family from Colorado and beyond.
We invite you to join us for this final summer weekend of song, spirit, and festivation with your Planet Bluegrass family on Saturday, September 17 featuring Adam Aijala & Ben Kaufmann of Yonder Mountain String Band.
Tickets and camping are onsale now at shop.bluegrass.com or 800-624-2422.
Music of Mabon
Turn your sun dial back to the last eight years of Mabon celebrations. They have been magical days capped by an unforgettable, intimate set from Adam Aijala and Ben Kaufmann. Relaxed, warm, and deeply musical. As Ben Kaufmann said onstage at last September's show: "This is always one of my very favorite shows. It's a very, very special gig that we get to do."

If you've been to one of these shows, you're probably still talking about it. As much as any of our Wildflower Concerts, these shows have caused a stir: two of our favorite musicians from one of the most vital bands in acoustic music, Yonder Mountain String Band, performing two long sets of music, sometimes including a completely acoustic encore performed on the edge of the stage.
As we celebrate the end of summer, the fall harvest, and the Autumnal Equinox, we're thrilled to once again invite Adam and Ben back to share in this musical feast for a ninth year.
Whether trading vocals on some of the most beloved songs in the Yonder catalog (including some not often heard), covering a broad swath of traditional music from Celtic to Americana, or trading leads on guitar, banjo, bouzouki, and mandolin this will be a show befitting the summer's finale.

'Tis a Gift to Be Simple
In the early 'oughts, our grand Festival of the Mabon occupied the main stage, the workshop stage, and vendors, artisans, and folk performers all over the Planet Bluegrass Ranch.
In 2007, we refocused our Autumnal energy on its essence: a casual afternoon of revelry on the Ranch and an intimate evening of acoustic music in the Wildflower. The intimate 300-seat Wildflower Pavilion replaced the main stage as the focus of live music. A few of our closest Festivarian and musical friends, replaced the large crowds of the Festival of the Mabon. And the experience became richer and more true than ever –- music, late-summer revelry, and the magic of Planet Bluegrass.

September 2014 featured Yonder Mountain String Band's epic Kinfolk Celebration on Planet Bluegrass, and its opening night Mabon Concert kick-off. This September, we're again returning to an intimate Mabon Concert in the Wildflower Pavilion for Yonder's Kinfolk, the Festivarian family, and lover's of summer's end on Planet Bluegrass.
A Day of Mabon
The Planet Bluegrass Ranch opens at 2pm on Saturday, September 17 to setup your camp in the onsite campground. We'll be serving food and hearty beverages all day to accompany a relaxed afternoon of Mabon revelry.
- Happy Hour from 2-5pm: featuring $1 off all beer, wine and our Bloody Mary Bar
- A selection of warm artisanal soups with vegan and gluten-free options (3-7pm)
- Authentic wood-fired pizza made by Seb's Portable Wood-Fired Pizza & Cusine (3-7pm)
Doors to the Wildflower Pavilion open at 7pm; Adam & Ben take the stage at 8pm. We'll be lighting the Mabon bonfire next to the St. Vrain River around dusk. A ticket is required to access the Planet Bluegrass grounds throughout the day.
Mabon Camping
Camping will be available to spend the Saturday evening (September 17) under the redstone cliffs of Planet Bluegrass, as the Mabon bonfire will likely go late into the night. Who knows... maybe we'll even spy a stray bagpiper wandering the Ranch as a reminder of the Mabons of yore.
- Tent camping ($10) is available for Saturday evening only. Camping is sold per-person not per-site. Only the front campground area closest to the Wildflower Pavilion will be used. Sorry, to protect the trees in the campground no RVs or pop-up campers are allowed.
- The grounds open at 2pm for camping or Mabon revelry on the festival grounds.
- Campground closes at noon on Sunday.
- All campers must also purchase a ticket to the concert.
Mabon Tickets
Tickets ($30) and camping ($10) are available now at shop.bluegrass.com or 800-624-2422. As always, Planet Bluegrass charges no handling or service fees.

text: NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Storage specialist NetApp ( NTAP) is proving popular with star hedge fund managers, according to the latest 13F filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Citadel Advisors added 5,771,479 NetApp shares to take its stake to 6,535,127, while D.E. Shaw added 994,888 shares, increasing its position to 2,053,775. Steve Cohen's SAC Capital Advisors made a more a modest increase in its position, adding 78,312 shares for a total of 111,765. Shares of NetApp, which competes with EMC ( EMC) and HP ( HPQ), have risen almost 19% over the past three months. The Sunnyvale, Calif.-based firm beat analysts' estimates in its third-quarter results earlier this week, and also delivered robust guidance. Renaissance Technologies, however, cut its position in NetApp by 1,094,100 shares, reducing the stake to 1,528,532. D.E. Shaw had added 630,907 EMC ( EMC) shares by the end of 2012, according to the filing, taking its position to 1,818,535. Citadel Advisors, however, significantly reduced its position in the storage giant to 194,175 shares, from 5,203,504. SAC Capital Advisors also cut its EMC holding to 113,126 shares from 3,481,140. EMC recently edged past Wall Street's estimates in its fourth-quarter results, although tepid guidance weighed heavily on the company's shares. Shares of the Hopkinton, Mass.-based firm are up 2% over three months. -- Written by James Rogers in New York Follow @jamesjrogers >To submit a news tip, send an email to: email@example.com.

The post-void residual (PVR) urine test measures the amount of urine
left in the bladder after urination.
The test is used to help evaluate:
The amount of leftover (residual) urine can be measured by draining the
bladder with a thin flexible tube (catheter) or by using ultrasound. The
catheter method has a slight risk of causing infection or injury to the tube
leading from the bladder (urethra). But the catheter method is safe when
done carefully. And it may be less expensive than ultrasound.

By Jane Walsh,
VP, Development
As someone whose job is Development (AKA fundraising), it is a rare opportunity when I get to co-lead a student program. NFTE "cross-training" as we sometimes call it, is a great way for staff members to get out of their regular day-to-day and directly be a part of the exciting work we do with youth. I have been raising funds for BizCamps for 15 years and I've had the chance to participate in several over the years, but admittedly it had been a while.
NFTE's BizCamp program leads students through an intensive version of our "core" program which is typically held during the school year. However, this time students attend class full-time for a 2-week period (80 hours) over summer vacation. They don't get paid, they don't get a grade, and they have to get up early to be on time for an 8:30am start.
Like all NFTE programs, BizCamps are taught by skilled teachers and cover a wide variety of business and entrepreneurship literacy lessons in fun ways and at lightning speed. As the centerpiece of the program, students create and present an original business plan based on their own interests and talents which they then present in increasingly high stakes business plan competitions in the hope of advancing from classroom to semi-finals to finals – all with a chance of locking in one of two coveted spots to NFTE's annual National Youth Entrepreneurship Challenge and prizes totaling $25,000.
Through engaging lessons and a rich array of experiential activities, participants learn applied mathematics, and analytical and communications skills through the framework of entrepreneurship. The wholesale buying trip and selling event teaches students about purchasing, pricing, and selling, including the concept of buy low/sell high as the basis of making a profit. Technology is essential to the program – students learn to use word processing, spreadsheets, and presentation software as they develop their business ideas, create video commercials, and learn to use the Internet for market research, website development and e-commerce. Volunteer involvement is another essential component. Local business leaders and entrepreneurs bring subject matter expertise, real world perspective, and enhanced support to NFTE students as guest speakers, business plan coaches, field trips hosts, and competition judges.
In two weeks, the teachers and students have to move very quickly through both the course content and the business plan template. It's not a lot of time to conceive, develop, test, refine, and pitch their ideas. Coaches make a substantial difference in this process by helping each student think critically about the viability of their plans. Every year I get excited to see the new ideas that students come up with. This year was no exception. The Start It Up St. Louis BizCamp had everything from colored toilet paper to magnetic shoelaces to wearable technology to charge your smart phone, plus several socially-conscious businesses and nonprofits to help youth fight important issues like bullying and domestic violence.
Programs like NFTE are important for myriad reasons. (I'm biased of course.) First, kids want opportunities to learn new things that can give them unique advantages. While it might take some cajoling to get them to the program on time, once they're committed they become fiercely competitive and begin to stay past class time or work on their plans at home. They quickly seize upon and utilize the resources – namely volunteers – they are given. Second, teachers want the program. I hear over and over from seasoned and novice NFTE teachers alike that the NFTE program has given them a new way to get through to students who just didn't see the value of school or believe they are capable of dreaming big about their futures. Entrepreneurship can capture the hearts, minds, and attention of some of the hardest to reach students. It is way for teachers to show students how they can build careers around their personal interests, skills, and talents. The St. Louis camp was no exception and I was in awe to see two dedicated NFTE teachers motivate and inspire students. Third, the workplace needs programs like NFTE. With growing demands on the future workforce to be problem-solvers, analytical, creative, and adaptable employees, entrepreneurship hits the mark on all of these skills and more. Whether it's in the best interest of a company to support programs like NFTE for future employees or for the creation of new businesses to drive the economy, our program provides awareness, opportunity, and experience to youth.
MasterCard stepped up in a big way for NFTE's students. Our camps were a big success in large measure because more than 40 MasterCard employees as well as others from the St. Louis Rams, Emerson, EY, Brighton Agency, Maxine Clark, and others lent their time and business experience to our students. This investment is not a one-time impact or experience. It will pay off ongoing in ways the volunteers may never know. The students will remember them for a long time, maybe forever. Really. I say it all the time, volunteers are NFTE's required ingredient for any program to be successful.
While it is often the case, it is striking to me how personal many of the students' business ideas are – ideas that are connected to what's happening in their lives and neighborhoods and how they want to be part of solutions to make life better for themselves and those around them. I'm proud of the students who participated in BizCamp. It was a true privilege to watch 34 high school students grow over two weeks. They are a special group young people who want to succeed, who are smart and innovative, and who care about their futures and making the world a better place.
It often happens that students drop out of the program after the first or second day. It's just a reality that some kids aren't interested or can't make the commitment. One student, Trayveon, quit after the second day and told us the program just wasn't for him. On the second to last day of BizCamp he called my colleague Priya and apologized. She thanked him for the call and asked him to attend the finals the next day to show support for his friends. He came and he told Priya he wished he hadn't quit.
Learning entrepreneurship as a teenager is a powerful tool for changing the futures of individuals, neighborhoods, cities, and the world. Stakeholders continue to strategically invest in the future of St. Louis and NFTE is proud to partner with MasterCard and others to create opportunities for youth.

NEWTOWN, Connecticut - President Barack Obama offered heart-felt condolences during a vigil for the victims of the deadly Connecticut school shooting.
Hundreds of friends and neighbors of the heartbroken community of Newtown shared hugs and tears as they gathered for an interfaith vigil Sunday. Parents clung to children, who clutched stuffed animals given to them by American Red Cross volunteers.
Law enforcement entered the room to a standing ovation, as was the president. Glowing candles lit the front of the room as the president made his remarks.
"I can only hope it helps for you to know that you're not alone in your grief," said the president. "That our world has been torn apart. That all across the land of ours, we have wept with you, we've pulled our children tight."
The president wiped his eyes as he spoke.
"I come to offer the love and prayers of a nation," said the president.
Reverend Matt Crebbin from Newtown said there were several important reasons to gather together.
"We gather to grieve together, to care for one another, to pray and to embrace," said Crebbin. "To weep and to remember, and to declare in our many voices or darkest days of our community shall not be the final word heard from us."
The president also touched on government policy during his remarks.
"Surely we can do better than this," said the president. "If there is even one step we can take to save another child or another parent or another town from the grief that has visited Tucson, and Aurora and Oak Creek, and Newtown and from communities from Columbine and Blacksburg, then surely we have an obligation to try."
The president said he'll do whatever it takes to prevent another tragedy like the Newtown school shooting from happening again.
"In the coming weeks, I'll use whatever power this office holds to engage my fellow citizens," said the president. "From law enforcement to mental health experts, to parents, educators, in effort aimed at preventing more tragedies like this."
President Obama's visit to Newtown marks the fourth time he's traveled to a city after a mass shooting.

Mayami Transitions From Women's to Men's squad.
SAINT LEO, Fla. – Coach Ray Cisbani has selected Andres Maymi as the team's newest assistant coach, it was announced Tuesday. Maymi will begin his duties immediately.
A native of Dorado, Puerto Rico, Maymi comes to the Lions as an established golfer in the Division II level. Playing four seasons for Texas A&M International University in Laredo, Texas, Maymi was the top golfer on the Dustdevils and was also the team's captain during his entire time at TAMIU.
After graduation in 2009, Maymi was invited to join the coaching staff at his alma mater where he assisted both the men's and women's teams. Maymi also spent the spring season with the Lions' 2011 women's golf team, who reached the NCAA South Region Tournament for the second consecutive year.
In addition to his coaching duties, Maymi was also a four-time member of the Puerto Rico National Team where he represented his country in the Dominican Republic, Cayman Islands, St. Croix and Costa Rica.
Maymi obtained his bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice from Texas A&M International as he also holds a minor in Political Science.
Maymi currently resides in Tampa, Fla. and is close friends with assistant volleyball coach Carlos Ramos.

text: I was aware that Grove City College was one of the most affordable private Christian colleges anywhere. But after visiting campus I knew it was the right place for me. I wanted smaller classes where I'd be able to ask questions, collaborate, get to know my professors and have them get to know me. Grove City College's low student-faculty ratio of 15:1 meant that I'd be in the type of environment where I knew I'd learn best.I came to Grove City College as engineering major, but quickly discovered engineering was not for me. So I talked with my professors about my strengths and talents. I also worked with the Career Services Office and they helped me find my passion in Marketing.Being in the right major is everything. And Grove City College helped me discover who I am and what I want to do.

Funeral.....Situation puzzles (sometimes called lateral thinking puzzles) are ones where you need to ask lots of yes or no questions to figure out what happened in the situation. These are good puzzles for groups where one person knows the puzzle and answers the questions.
I heard this teaser this weekend from a medical student. Apparently, they ask this question to people to know if they are psychopaths. If you can answer it right away, you may have bizarre tendencies. You have all the elements to answer it, you don't have to elaborate complex theories. Ok, here it comes:
A young girl is at her mother's funeral. She meets a young man she had never seen before, but who's there as a part of family. She instantly falls in love with him. A few days after, she kills her sister. Why?
HintRemember, you have all the elements of the problem in your hands.
AnswerShe only wanted to see the young man again, assuming he would show up at her own sister's funeral.
Are you a psychopath? :)

Should I be concerned about pesticides in the food my child eats?
Yes. Pesticide residues are often found on produce, and fruits and vegetables are an important part of your child's diet.
Pesticides protect crops from damage, which helps keep groceries affordable. But research shows that pesticides also contribute to a wide range of health problems, including cancer, lung disease, reproductive problems, and possibly disorders of the endocrine and immune systems.
Animal testing indicates that pesticides can cause permanent changes in brain chemistry that may lead to behavioral disorders, learning disabilities, and even long-term damage to the brain and nervous system.
Pesticide exposure can affect your child's health today and in the future. In fact, some effects may not become apparent until later in life.
Are children more vulnerable to pesticides than adults are?
Yes. Children tend to eat a limited number of foods, which can increase their exposure to specific pesticides. They also eat more food relative to their body weight than adults do.
Children may also absorb pesticides more easily. And because their gastrointestinal tract is still developing, their bodies may be less capable of breaking down toxins. Finally, pesticides can block absorption of the nutrients that are vital to healthy growth and development.
Keep in mind that eating food isn't the only way your child can come in contact with pesticides: They can also get into drinking water.
And if you use pesticides in your home or yard, that's another way your child will be exposed. You can even track pesticides into your home on the soles of your shoes. Then your child can ingest the chemicals if he plays on the floor or puts something from the floor into his mouth, for example.
(Pesticides can also cross the placenta, so pregnant women need to take care to minimize exposure.)
Aren't there regulations to protect my child from pesticides in food?
In the United States, existing regulations are intended to do just that. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) sets limits on the amount of pesticides that may be used on crops. The limit is based on how toxic a particular pesticide is, how much residue will remain on the crop, and how much of the crop a consumer is likely to eat.
The Food Quality Protection Act, passed in 1996, requires that the residue levels of pesticides be safe for babies and children, taking into account children's special sensitivity to pesticides. However, under certain circumstances – like in the case of economic hardship to the farmer – the EPA can authorize the use of pesticides that don't meet safety standards.
Some consumer advocacy groups believe that limits on pesticides should be stricter to protect children.
While federal regulations have been gradually prohibiting the most dangerous pesticides, more remain in use. In addition, tests have found that some produce contains high levels of pesticides that have long been banned in the United States because these chemicals are still in the soil. And when farmers plant in contaminated soils, they often end up with contaminated produce.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Pesticide Data Program tests foods for pesticide residues. According to the program's annual report, 64 percent of the fruits and vegetables – both fresh and processed (including baby food) – tested in 2010 had detectable pesticide residues. Low levels were found in eggs, oats, catfish, and drinking water.
The USDA emphasizes that these foods are safe to eat. Pesticide residues were largely within the limit deemed acceptable by the EPA.

Get the Recipe
When it comes to easy cookies, drop sugar cookies are about as simple as you can get. No rolling of dough, no messy pastry bags dripping with icing. The best part about the dough is that it's simply mixed by hand, so you can leave your mixer under its quilted cozy.
For a denser, less cakey texture, you want to avoid adding too much air into the dough. That's why you don't need to cream the sugar and butter together, and why the butter is melted. Though most cookies use all purpose flour, the higher gluten in bread flour offers a chewier bite.
To bake, just roll in your favorite sanding sugar, non-pareils, and sprinkles, and you'll have a quick assortment of fun and delicious cookies. The texture is just want you want from a sugar cookie: chewy, soft, and crisp on the edges.

RACE nights in the Legends Lounge at Blunsdon won't quite be the same when the new speedway season gets underway in March, following the death of two-time world champion Freddie Williams.
The Welshman died at Great Western Hospital in Swindon on Sunday morning at the age of 86, leaving behind three children from his marriage to Pat, a former Olympic skater.
Despite never riding for the Robins, Williams had been both a regular and popular visitor to the Abbey Stadium in recent years, attending most home meetings in the Legends Lounge with his younger brother Ian, who himself rode in close to 450 meetings for Swindon between 1952 and 1963.
The older Williams became the first British rider to win two world crowns following his victories in 1950 and 1953, a feat only matched by Peter Craven, and claimed five national league titles during his time with his only club Wembley Lions.
Williams also presented the winner's trophy to Chris Holder at last year's British GP in Cardiff, on the same day his son David took charge of golf's Johnnie Walker Championship at Gleneagles as tournament director. Ian, himself 81, paid tribute to his brother and was not surprised in the slightest by how much he achieved during his glittering speedway career.
"Of course we are sad, but it was coming I think," he said.
"As well as a brother he was always a really good friend to me all my life, and I will of course miss him very much. He always smiled and even in the hard times he was happy.
"He was dedicated to his riding and that came first, and he was a very good rider.
"Winning two World Championships was a great achievement, and we were all very proud of him.
"We all expected it of him because he was riding really well, and we were not surprised at all when he won his titles because he was very good.
"I enjoyed going to meetings with him at Swindon, and speedway looked after us very well, and although he never rode for Swindon they took him in as part of the family."
Robins team manager Alun Rossiter always enjoyed spending time with Williams, and insisted he learnt a lot from him when they met at the Abbey Stadium.
"It was always nice to see him, and it was good that he was able to come and watch the speedway because he only lived in Newbury," he said.
"He was a really nice guy and a true gentleman, and he always had a smile on his face and was pleased to talk to people.
"It is always good to remember the people that have made a big contribution to our sport, and I learnt a lot from talking to him over the years."
The funeral will be held on January 30 in Welford near Newbury.

ExxonMobil CEO Defends Manmade Global Warming, Says Humans are Able to Adapt

Rex Tillerson, ExxonMobil CEO
He also addressed fears associated with drilling techniques and oil dependency
ExxonMobil's CEO defended oil and gas drilling by saying that
climate change
is something humans can adapt to.
Rex Tillerson, ExxonMobil CEO, said issues like climate change, energy dependence and oil/gas drilling are blown out of proportion. He blames a lazy press, illiterate public and fear-mongering advocacy groups for the bad light placed on the oil industry.
Climate change is a controversial topic that has been subjected to much debate. Tillerson said that fossil fuels may cause global warming, but argued that humans can easily adapt to the warmer climate. More specifically, he said that humans can adapt to rising sea levels and climate changes because he doubts the validity of climate modeling, which predicts the magnitude of impact associated with climate change.
"We have spent our entire existence adapting," said Tillerson. "We'll adapt. It's an engineering problem and there will be an engineering solution."
Others, however, disagree with Tillerson's assessment. Andrew Weaver, chairman of climate modeling and analysis at Canada's University of Victoria, said that adapting to climate change would be much harder than just preventing it in the first place.
In addition, adapting to climate change could be much more expensive than preventing it. According to Steve Coll, author of "Private Empire: ExxonMobil and American Power," adapting to climate change would require moving entire cities. A better alternative would be legislation that slows the process of global warming.
An example of such a measure is the
proposed fuel standards for 2017-2025
, which will require automakers to create vehicles capable of 54.5 MPG by 2025.
The effort aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and lessen the country's dependency on foreign oil.
These standards will cost the auto industry $157.3 billion and
add an extra $2,000
to the sticker price of new autos, but it will save consumers $1.7 trillion at the gas pump.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) will finalize the fuel efficiency standards
by the end of July 2012
Such measures could hit ExxonMobil's wallet with less gas used.
Tillerson also addressed the topic of consequences related to oil/gas drilling techniques, saying that drilling will always present possible risks like spills and accidents. But he mentioned that such risks are manageable and worth the end result, which is the energy provided.
Tillerson also said that drilling in shale formations doesn't pose life-threatening risks to those living nearby. However, drilling mixes millions of gallons of water with sand and chemicals that creates drilling wastewater. If this water is not treated, it can contaminate drinking water through cracked drilling pipes.
Tillerson also mentioned his problem with views on oil dependency. He said that there will always be access to oil, and that it doesn't matter where the U.S. gets oil because it is priced globally. Tillerson added that the U.S. only receiving oil from North America would still increase gas prices in the U.S. because it would cause a "disruption" in the Middle East.

"I know I want to work with animals, but I'm not sure if I want to be a zookeeper, or a vet."
As the Teen Programs Coordinator here at the zoo, this is a sentence I hear frequently from teens looking to get involved at the zoo. Zookeeper or vet, vet or zookeeper; teens seem only to be aware of these two options when it comes to having a career in the animal world. It's a phenomenon I have personal experience with; as a teen growing up with a love of animals, I knew that being a vet wasn't for me…so I assumed I would be a zookeeper. I knew that being a zookeeper might not afford opportunities to speak with the public or give presentations- things I really enjoyed as a volunteer- but I thought it was the only viable option out there for a teen wanting to work with wildlife.
Now, as a staff member in the Conservation and Education Department, I know that I was mistaken. I now work alongside educators, marketers, grant writers and of course, many hardworking vets and zookeepers (more properly called "animal keepers" these days). I also have the opportunity to meet a variety of people in conservation and wildlife fields, who represent an amazing array of just what you can do in terms of animal-friendly careers. It made me think: if only teens could see this diversity, their minds might be opened to all of the possibilities in wildlife careers. And so, as someone once afflicted with Vet/Zookeeper Limitation Syndrome, I hatched a plan: to have an entire wildlife-related career day for teens, with no zookeepers and no vets.
Hence, Wildlife Careers Day was born! On March 13, 2010, we hosted our 3rd annual Wildlife Careers Day, with over 50 attendees. Teens went to workshops hosted by the Animals Asia Foundation, Red Panda Network, the East Bay Regional Parks District, Ventana Wildlife Society, and the zoo's own Conservation and Education Department. They learned about jobs as field biologists, paleontologists, naturalists, and conservationists. Perhaps most impressive, they learned about the paths that each speaker took to arrive in their current positions. Brian Williams of the Red Panda Network began as a Peace Corps volunteer in Nepal, and now runs the first and only NGO working to protect this unique species; James Frank of the EBRPD passed out copies of the curriculum vitae he used to get his job as a naturalist. In the end, teens left with an important message: don't limit yourself! There are so many careers in this ever-expanding field that, as Williams said himself, "anything you think you might want to do as a job, you can do." Indeed, now more than ever, it is so important that young people choose to pursue an environmentally sound career. In my position, I know that I make a difference for wildlife around the world; seeing 50 pairs of eyes focusing on the same goal makes me profoundly hopeful for the future.
Still think you might like to be a zookeeper or vet? Don't worry- these are still important and rewarding jobs! We'll host another career event all about these two professions in October.

Kevin Federline and his personalized Ferrari
a href="/">
Here's Kevin Federline doing what I can only imagine is his best Lollipop Kids impression. All he needs are some striped socks and a little more 'kick' and he'll have it down perfect.
More of Kevin and his personalized Ferrari after the jump. And by personalized I mean personalized. I've never been so offended by brake pads in my entire life.

MATT McKee led the way with four tries as Swindon College Old Boys tore their closest Berks/Bucks & Oxon Premier rivals Chipping Norton apart to secure an impressive 47-3 victory.
The two teams are locked in a battle for second place in the table with Saturday's clash expected to be a tight affair with both sides gunning for victory, but Old Boys took control in the second half having led 11-3 at the break to move level on points with their opponents with six games to play.
Old Boys head coach Mark Roshier admitted his side were in shock at the size of their victory, and believes the margin of their success should have been even greater.
"We prepared all week and had great numbers in training, but they were all a little bit pumped up so we took the contact out of training and worked on some other things," he said.
"Going into the game I kept things under control because I didn't want any of them to have niggles with each other or be unhappy with any big hits they made on each other.
"It seemed to work because in the game we tore them apart really, and it was great to see.
"It could have been more too because we were held up over the line three times and dropped passes when we had the chance to score, so we were left kicking ourselves a little bit at that.
"So many tries went begging, but our number one aim was the win, so the size of the win and the bonus point were some added extras.
"We were all a bit shocked at the end, but the atmosphere was fantastic all the way around the club."
Roshier also revealed an early shock proved the perfect motivation to go on and win the game.
"They hit our first scrum and they moved us, and I think that shocked us a bit because they are one of the only teams in the league to manage that," he said.
"We got a bit of a kick up the backside from that, and we never went backwards at all after that.
"We took their lineout ball and took scrums against the head, and charged down their kicks at will, and to be honest they never looked like scoring."

E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial: Anniversary Edition
DirectorSteven Spielberg
Release Date(s)1982 (October 9, 2012)
- Film/Program Grade: A+
- Video Grade: A
- Audio Grade: A
- Extras Grade: A-
E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial is today, more often than not, shunned and mostly overlooked when film fans reference Steven Spielberg's career. When people talk about his body of work, usually the films that come up include Jaws, Saving Private Ryan, Schindler's List, Empire of the Sun or Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Perhaps the reasons for this are because it was such a massive blockbuster & pop culture phenomenon, it cross-pollinated with another blockbuster moment in time (Michael Jackson) and it's a more family-oriented affair than the other films in question. It seems to be in a class all by itself and it usually isn't even mentioned. I guess I also sometimes feel that way, but not in a negative way. After all, E.T., for all intents and purposes, is a masterpiece, and probably the greatest family-friendly masterpiece in the history of cinema.
Despite that, it's just not one of my favorite films, but I do give it the respect that it deserves. Upon revisiting it, I had forgotten just how powerful it was and all of the imagination that went into making it. Even as a child I don't remember being over the moon for it the way that I was with other movies at the time. It's an emotional roller coaster from beginning to end, and it's just not a film that I revisit all that often. Almost all of that emotion can be attributed to John Williams' masterful score, which has its way with the audience more potently than most film scores of recent memory. It's a tour-de-force and truly stands out as one of his best works. I may be more impressed by the technical wizardry and filmmaking techniques that went into making the film, but the performances and the score are still as powerful as they were in 1982. It may have struck a bitter blow to the theatrical performances of more adult-oriented films when released (Blade Runner, The Thing), but you can't deny that the film is a masterstroke, and it's great to see new life breathed into it thirty years later.
Although it was theatrically re-released in 1985, it was the 2002 special edition re-release that marred the film a bit in the eyes of film fans and left a bad taste in their mouths. The most infamous change made to the film was the eradication of all of the guns from the hands of the F.B.I. guys and being replaced with walkie-talkies. Well, I'm pleased to inform you that this is not the version you'll fine with this new Blu-ray release. Steven Spielberg has decided to ignore that particular version of the film, which featured a lot of updated special effects and newly-inserted scenes, and give us the original version only. There was also a line of dialogue that the mother character said to Michael during the Halloween scene: "You're NOT going as a terrorist!". This line was previously deleted from the original video release but now remains intact. One has to wonder about the influence that George Lucas, one of Steven Spielberg's closest friends, had on these changes at the time. I don't hold a personal grudge against Spielberg because of it though. I, along with many other people, just didn't think that the changes were necessary. Fortunately (unlike Lucas), he usually maintains and includes the original versions instead of casting them aside (thankfully, no one says that they hate Pizza Hut in this movie). To make a long story short, this release is exactly what audiences saw in 1982.
The back of the Blu-ray case proclaims that E.T. has been "Digitally Remastered from High Resolution 35mm Film Elements". As with other recent Universal releases, many videophiles have derided them for appearing too clean. For those people, rest easy - E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial on Blu-ray is as stunning as you could hope it to be. It's an absolutely beautiful presentation, free of any overabundant digital manipulation. I'd venture to guess that it looks better than it did in 1982 (or even 1985 and 2002, for that matter). The color palette is much bolder than I remember it being. The Halloween scenes during sunset in particular stood out, popping and fizzing with color. Blacks also appear to be very deep without being crushed and the grain texture is completely solid and even throughout (and pleasantly film-like). The newly-enhanced resolution displays an amazing amount of fine detail, particularly on the E.T. puppet. Every fine layer of skin texture can be seen in much higher clarity than ever before. The skin tones and textures of the human players are also equally impressive. Contrast seems a little too high at times, but not enough for me to make any major complaints. There appear to be several instances of softness throughout the film, but these moments seem to be inherent in the image itself and don't reflect the restoration process. This looks and feels like a newly-struck print using the finest film stock available, and I can't honestly find anything to complain about.
I also can't find anything to complain about when it comes to the audio. We've been given four options to choose from: English DTS-HD 7.1, English DTS Digital Surround 2.0 and Spanish & French DTS Digital Surround 5.1. I'm always happy to have the original soundtrack so for me that's all I really need. However, the new 7.1 track is great unto itself. Even if it's sourced for a 2.0 mix, they've done some great work with it here. Of course John Williams' magnificent score benefits the most from it, but so do the small ambient sound effects. Crickets chirping, owls hooting and all of E.T.'s little groans and noises come through with amazing clarity. The dialogue is also on an even playing field, which is nice. Sometimes with these new mixes it's a bit too low, but it's perfectly audible and fits in nicely in this case. The film doesn't have too many LFE moments, mainly in the beginning and the end, but those moments do have some nice deep bass to them. All in all, it's a great soundtrack. I would even go so far as to say that it rivals the original soundtrack, but the purist in me just won't completely agree to that. There are also subtitles in English, Spanish and French for those might need them.
As far as the extras go, most of the previous extras have been carried over. Newly included with this release is the Steven Spielberg & E.T. featurette and The E.T. Journals on-set production footage in two parts. Carried over from the previous releases are two deleted scenes that were originally inserted into the special edition, the A Look Back documentary, The Evolution and Creation of E.T. and The Music of E.T. featurettes, The E.T. Reunion segment, the 20th Anniversary Premiere musical segment, the film's original theatrical trailer, a Special Olympics TV Spot and a collection of photographs under the banner of Designs, Photographs & Marketing. Additionally there's a pocket Blu app, BD-Live, a D-Box motion code option and Ultraviolet & Digital Copy options with a redemption code paper insert. The DVD features audio in Dolby Digital 5.1 in English, Spanish & French; subtitles in English, Spanish & French; the two deleted scenes; and the Steven Spielberg & E.T., A Look Back and The E.T. Reunion featurettes.
Missing from the previous releases (other than the 2002 special edition version of the film) is the introduction by Spielberg himself, the isolated score track, the interactive tour of space with E.T., the re-release trailer and the swag from the DVD Gift Set. Also sorely missing from the great Laserdisc release is the long form The Making of E.T. documentary, which featured even more behind-the-scenes material, interviews and additional deleted scenes. A lot of this same material was used in some of the featurettes included with this release, but a lot of it is exclusive only to that documentary. It's non-inclusion is a real shame but the wealth of extra material that HAS been included makes up for it the best that it can. I also think that Steven Spielberg has made it more or less clear that he isn't interested in the 2002 special edition version of the film anymore and that the definitive version of the film is the original version. Thank goodness for that.
Revisiting E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial has been a bit of an emotional experience for me. I can't think of another movie that has ever turned me into such a blubbering mess as this one does. Perhaps that's why I don't watch it too often. Nevertheless, it IS a masterpiece of storytelling. It dominated the box office upon release and for many years was the highest grossing film of all time. No matter how many years go by, it still manages to touch us. I think it's about time for a proper revisit to this film, and with this Blu-ray release, there couldn't be a better time than now.

Mathematics is challenging – but isn't anything worth doing a challenge? With Mathematics at Hastings College, though, overcoming that challenge opens doors. You'll know how to think critically and be confident in your ability to tackle the problems of today and tomorrow. Math majors can tackle just about anything!
At Hastings College you'll have unlimited access to professors with doctorate degrees who want you to succeed. Their broad experience across all areas of the field means you'll have exposure to a wide range of mathematics, and that you'll have multiple resources for assistance and expertise.
Our faculty offer great flexibility in areas that interest you specifically, as they are willing to work with you to develop directed study options that go beyond the Hastings College catalog. During the College's famous January Term, you'll have a chance to dive in and experience courses that are of significant interest to professors, including computer hardware, game theory, science fiction, non-Euclidean geometries and designing online games.
Through challenging coursework and in-class projects, you'll test your skills and enhance your abilities to apply mathematics to real world and abstract problems. You'll also have outside opportunities for internships with a number of local businesses and organizations throughout the state, and the chance to participate in research experiences for undergraduates (REUs) at major research institutions all across the country. In recent years, students have secured and completed REUs at such places as the University of Tennessee, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Central Michigan University and Lafayette University.
As a senior, you'll complete a project that relates mathematics to something you love. Maybe that's integrating math with another field such as economics or physics, or maybe it's developing numerical methods to analyze baseball statistics. Perhaps you'd rather write programs to digitize music and from that determine the identity of the person playing a song, and what instrument is being used. Or maybe you'll end up constructing and solving 3D mazes, and finding interesting relationships between their complexity and fractal geometry.

First-time explanations by Adnan Oktar
Adnan Oktar Says...
A9 TV: April 2nd, 2013
ADNAN OKTAR: There is also incitement in universities. Our security forces should be more punctilious and take better precautions. They do not have a police presence in universities. In my view there should be large numbers of police. There should be plainclothes and uniformed police in universities. Many young people cannot go to many universities because of their views. That is a fact. A right-winger cannot go to a university where left-wingers are in charge because they cannot study in peace. Young girls who wear the headscarf cannot go. Maybe leftists cannot go to some places. That is why there should be plainclothes police in all classes in schools. Where is the harm? That is a good thing. Are the police not our brothers? Students could be present as police, as official police officers: Security, in other words. They beat teachers up and knife other students. That would all come to an end. So where is the harm? How could police officers annoy anyone? They should be friends with them, and the police should chat to them. I am not saying the police should be cold and stand-offish. They should be friendly and chat in the canteen. Where is the harm? But there must be a police presence. It is difficult for students to bring that about in schools. It has never happened anywhere at any time. That is why we would ask it from the government.
There should be plainclothes and uniformed police in all schools, even in high schools. Now young people threaten their teachers, at the age of 15-16, for instance. Just as they are approaching maturity, some of them go through a phase of bullying; they want to prove themselves. But if there were a police presence, they could not challenge their teachers.
July 12th, 2013: Vatan
The prime minister spoke at an iftar program in Bingöl. Touching on recent events he said, "If there is violence, the response to violence is violence. Everyone will see that. That is why we will soon be installing our own security forces in universities, rather than private security. Because seeing very different things happening here imposes a special responsibility on us."

Stars push for Boy Scouts of America reform
Star Trek actor Takei has previously supported calls for the youth group to end the policy, and he was delighted to hear scouts bosses are now seriously considering reversing the ban.
The final decision will be made when the group's national board members meet next week (beg04Feb13), and a number of other stars have joined Takei in urging members of the public to call and email the association to back the change.
How I Met Your Mother star Neil Patrick Harris writes in a series of posts on Twitter.com, "Come on, Boy Scouts, do the right thing. Diversity should be honoured and valued. There should be a merit badge for it… The Boy Scouts have created a line to call for your opinion on keeping the ban in place. Call 972-580-2330 and affect change!"
Hairspray director Adam Shankman adds, "Hey friends if u (sic) think the Boy Scouts should accept ppl (people) like me: entertainers (ok, fine,& gay). Write 2 (sic): firstname.lastname@example.com."
Actress Mia Farrow concludes, "It's past time that Boy Scouts lift their (ignorant, hurtful) ban on gay kids," and DeGeneres adds, "The Boy Scouts are close to changing their policy… We can all make a difference."

Preheat the oven to 350°. To prepare the stuffing, heat the oil in a skillet and sauté the onions for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms, celery and shoyu. Sauté another 5 minutes. Place the sautéed vegetables in a mixing bowl. Add the bread cubes, Edensoy and sage. Mix well. Add more shoyu and sage, if desired.
Lightly oil the skin of the squash with safflower oil. Stuff each squash half with equal amounts of stuffing. Cover with foil and place in a baking dish. Bake for 40 minutes until the squash is tender when poked with a fork. Remove the foil and bake another 5 minutes or so to lightly brown the stuffing. Place on a serving platter.
