Knitted Bat Specimen
This pattern is available for $4.00 USD buy it now
I'm really quite proud of my newest addition to my aKNITomical line: Chiroptera (more commonly known as the bat!)
Bats are not just for Halloween decorations. They are an integral part of a healthy ecosystem, and they help keep the insect population in check. Beyond being badass flying mammals, they're also pretty darn cute.
To knit this bat you will need the following skills:
- long-tail cast on
- bind off
- knit
- purl
- increase
- decrease
- I-cord
- needle felting
Pattern difficulty level: Intermediate

Sisi Property Ltd came to tile my shower at the drop of hat. First impressions were that they seemed a little slow, it quickly became apparent that they were in fact perfectionists.The end result was genuinely outstanding and I am delighted with their work. True craftsmen.They took their time because they were meticulous; not slow.The job manager was excellent, polite and friendly; and while the tilers were brilliant, I'd suggest John learns 'hello', 'thank you' and how to crack a smile though ;)
I highly recommend these guys first class work and an excellent team. On time as promised and very respectful in all ways.
I rarely leave feedback on these forums, but these guys really deserve it. Our kitchen tiling and painting was done to an excellent standard. Our decorator put dust sheets on everything, taped up areas so nothing was painted that shouldn't have been. He hoovered, and placed everything back that he'd moved at the end of each day. He even sent us photos of progress! Would highly recommend and be happy to ask them to come back in the future. Thank you!

Institute for War and Peace Reporting/allAfrica
Student-led demonstrations coupled with growing frustration among sections of Sudan's broader population provide the strongest indications yet of a real push for regime change, analysts say.
But opposition forces are still a long way short of being the kind of organised, unified movement that could topple a government.
Now in their sixth day, the student protests began in the capital Khartoum on June 17 in anticipation of austerity measures that President Omar al Bashir's government plans to put in place next week. The cuts include raising taxes, lifting fuel subsidies and cutting the number of government ministers, all in order to reduce the huge budget deficit.
Even before the measures come into force, the price of basic items like sugar, fruit, and public transport fares, have risen by as much as 50 per cent this week as fears grow about their impact.
As hundreds of demonstrators took to the streets, the security agencies banned three newspapers from publishing and detained local and international journalists.
Students have led a number of demonstrations against the government in recent months, but these have been crushed by the security services and never built up enough momentum to threaten the government. (See for example Police Get Tough on Student Protests.)
But there are signs that this time, things may not die down that easily. Read more…

To day I sent the wagon to move Perry from the mill house. nothing doing in the crops. weather cloudy with rain & hail.
Thus closes my notes for the month of December and also for the year just passed and gone and now numbered with the things that were. Whether the Almighty will spare me to chronicle the daily events of the incoming year is more than I know but trusting in Him I shall enter upon the pleasing task, which is useful as a reference and may be profitable to those who have an interest in me.

Goodbye all, it was fun being here and thanks for the ideas and the replies and the advice. I want to mention that during my time here apart from the regulars, I really enjoyed the non-JW Dispell. You remember her? she was good fun, I wonder if she ever looked in again?
I battle away on JW Discussion Forum as do many others from this site which is much more impersonal than we were here because there are so many posters but good nevertheless.

Rostraver Township woman's bucket list formed with her children in mind
Watching newborn children in the pods at a neonatal intensive care unit, Kate Crawford was touched by their innocence amidst a struggle to survive.
"We felt they looked like little peas in a pod," Crawford said.
One of those sweet peas was her daughter, Shannon, who was born Jan. 16, 2007, with heart and diaphragm defects that took her life three days later.
Moved by grief and a desire to help other mothers facing similar situations, the Rostraver Township mother co-founded Project Sweet Peas.
The national organization helps parents with children in neonatal intensive care units.
The organization provides wellness items for the parents as well as baby blankets, hats, booties and specialized care packages like little Halloween costumes, bracelets for Mother's Day and stockings for Christmas.
The organization works with hospitals that operate neonatal intensive care units.
In 2009, Crawford gave birth to twins, Gracie and Lillie – who arrived six weeks early.
Her son, Stephen Jr., was born eight weeks premature. Now 3, he has faced a host of developmental issues. He receives speech therapy five times a week and physical therapy twice a week.
Stephen has the expressiveness of an 18-month-old child, which is a great improvement.
But Crawford has voluntarily "stepped back" from the organization and taken a "medical leave while I'm going through everything."
The board of directors of the nationwide organization will take over her duties, for now.
Crawford was diagnosed with stage II breast cancer on Jan. 25, her husband Stephen's birthday. Two weeks later – just two days shy of her 29th birthday – she learned the cancer had advanced to stage IV.
Crawford found a mass in her breast in August, but her son soon was admitted to Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC and ended up undergoing six weeks of physical therapy.
"There was no way for me to get to a doctor, and that's why it advanced," Crawford said of her cancer.
Crawford's cancer is aggressive and has spread – to both breasts, right shoulder, right ribs, thoracic spine, pelvis and liver.
Doctors have given her a less than a 30 percent chance of living five years.
In the wake of that, Crawford has created a "bucket list" – group of things to experience – although she admits it's as much for her children as for herself.
"There's so much more I wanted to do with them, and I wanted to keep track," Crawford said. "Say that list never gets completed; they will know the things I wanted to do with them and have a scrapbook of those memories."
Another helper
Jamie Holmes formed Jamie's Dream Team in 2005 to "provide dreams for terminally ill or seriously injured" people.
The organization has made more than 500 dreams come true.
Holmes was inspired to form the team after her battle with VATER syndrome – characterized by congenital abnormalities of the vertebrae, lower intestine, trachea, esophagus and kidneys – which has required her to undergo dozens of major surgical procedures.
"My passion and mission in life is to help other people," the White Oak woman said.
"We were working on a few dreams in Westmoreland County, and one of our volunteers (said), 'There's this wonderful woman, Kate, who has her mommy's bucket list.'"
Crawford said Holmes "just started marking things off my list."
Crawford wanted to see her three children go to the prom. Holmes helped arrange for the toddlers to participate in a promenade, complete with a tuxedo for Stephen and prom dresses for the girls.
"On Saturday, we went to a Pirate game," Crawford explained as her daughters pranced across the living room floor wearing Cutch's Crew Bucco T-shirts.
Jamie's Dream Team bought the children "big kid bicycles," Crawford said.
"She's giving a graduation party for them, because I don't know if I'll be around to see them graduate," Crawford said.
The graduation party will be July 6 at Round Hill Park in Elizabeth Township.
"I feel a connection to Kate," Holmes said. "I saw that list and said, 'I can have fun checking off a bunch of these.
"I'd really like to get as many donors as possible to send her to Disney."
The bucket list contained 63 items – everything from camping trips and visits to Washington, D.C., and Salem, Mass., in October to simpler things like a swing set in the back yard, a pet dog, or watching the sun rise with her husband.
"We're such a young family," Crawford said. "We have so much left that we have to do in a short span."
Living on faith
"Faith – that's all I have," Crawford said. "God is working miracles through me. Even if he does not heal me, His grace is working through me.
"People say, 'How are you smiling now?' They don't realize it's because people are blessing us every day."
Holmes said there has been an outpouring of support for Crawford.
"People are coming forward, because they remember Kate from when she helped them, and they now want to help her," Holmes said. "I hope that when I make an impact, I hope I make as much of an impact as she has."
Holmes is seeking donations and volunteers to help make Crawford's dreams a reality.
A "Crawford's Rocking Cancer" benefit dinner and dance will take place 6 p.m. to midnight Saturday at the Rostraver Central Fire Department social hall.
Crawford has tried to put it all into perspective.
"The best-case scenario is that it all gets done," Crawford said. "My main goal for it was for the kids."

Verbier Snow Report 05/03/2013
Here is the latest snow report from our team in Verbier
There is 260cm of snow at the top of the Verbier ski area with 105cm of snow in resort. The last snowfall was on 24th Feb with around 4cm falling.
There are 177km of pistes open in the Verbier ski area with 35 out of 35 ski lifts open.
Spring is most definitely in town and the sun has got his hat on as we jump from winter into springtime. The temperatures have been high throughout the ski area but with previous cold temperatures and great seasonal snow falls there has been plenty of great snow for the February/ March crowds to ski and spread into. The snow itself is still in good condition after so much snowfall at the end of February, lasting us throughout the warmer weather. All the ski area is open at the moment, and the better snow is to be found around the glacier and the off piste runs down to Tortin. Lac de Vaux is also in great condition with great quality bumps and smooth pistes in all direction. The weather in resort for the next few days looks to be powder, powder, powder with a huge snowfall expected to last till the end of the week. Temperatures have already dramatically changed since yesterday which saw 14 degrees and bright sunshine, today is much more cloudier and snow is definitely in the air!

Embodiment of Fire (決着だ!!炎の化身 20倍界王拳のカメハメ波, Ketchaku da!! Hono no Keshin Ni-Ju Bai Kaioken no Kamehemeha) is the sixteenth episode of the Frieza Saga and the ninety-first overall episode in the uncut Dragon Ball Z series. The episode first aired on May 22, 1991. Its original American air date was October 12, 1999.
Captain Ginyu blows his cover while inside Bulma's body, and frantically attacks Krillin, but to no avail. In a last ditch effort to survive and rejoin Frieza, Ginyu prepares to perform his Body Change technique on Piccolo, but Gohan throws Bulma, who is in the Namekian Frog's body, in the beam's path, switching Bulma to her original body and Ginyu to the body of the Namekian Frog again. As Bulma celebrates, an attack from Frieza blows her away, and she lands safely elsewhere.
Goku continues to battle Frieza with no success whatsoever, being pummeled around by the tyrant. Finally, Frieza throws Goku into a lake and stops him from resurfacing until Goku finally loses consciousness from lack of oxygen. However, a vision of a destroyed Earth and the deaths of all of his friends at Frieza's hands snaps him awake, and in his rage, he explodes out of the water. Declaring that he will not let Frieza win, Goku furiously powers up another Kaio-ken 20x attack and topples Frieza. He follows this up with a Kaio-ken Kamehameha which hits Frieza directly, but Frieza survives the blast, albeit with a singed palm.

Photo Flash: Houston Ballet's THE NUTCRACKER Rings in Holiday Season
by David Clarke - November 30, 2013
Since its Houston premiere in 1987, THE NUTCRACKER with choreography by Ben Stevenson has been one of Houston's favorite and most cherished ways to kick off the holiday season. Since it first opened 26 years ago, the gorgeous and spectacle filled holiday treat has been seen by over 1,000,000 people. The dazzling production always delights audiences and is, as the Houston Ballet puts it, 'the perfect way to introduce young children to the power and beauty of classical dance. Tchaikovsky's magical score, Desmond Heeley's fairy-tale scenery, and Ben Stevenson's vibrantly theatrical staging combine to create one of the most visually stunning productions of THE NUTCRACKER in the world today.'

Thank you very much for the birthday greetings!
I got a job as a (part timer) translator so I got quite busy until last month. ^^;
It's a fun job and it really made me feel challenged. I worked for a local TV station and my job was to translate an anime script for dubbing. When I saw the final result on TV, it's a mixed feeling. I felt happy because my work's done but at the same time I felt "Ah! I thought I did good.... I should have done a better job!" ;_;
Also, the assignments for campus kept me busy too. xD
Speaking of game, I still have the dream of owning a PC but for now, I agree with you. Laptop is good in general. xD
I see you're enjoying your new PS3, that's nice. xD
I really like smartphone games lately, I'm playing Love Live game now. And Idolm@ster Cinderella Girls just released their new rhythm game too for smartphone, have you tried it?
Ah, by the way, Anzu's role is getting bigger in second season of the anime (at least she's not always sleeping when we see her). :3
And a little bit about my mom, she did find a job that she liked, she really liked working in a bank. xD
But she quit her job after she married my dad (I think this was a common thing in the 90's?). ^^;I'm the one who should apologize, I hadn't checked my messages in ages! >_<
Haha, no problem, everyone can get busy! :)
That's really nice with your work as a part time translator! And I know how it it, as I also had part time jobs that ended up eating all of my free time, haha. xD
And that is absolutely amazing! :O Which anime did you translate? :D
Yes, yes! I'm still enjoying my PS3 a lot! I didn't have much time to game recently, but I pick up my plastic guitar every once in a while to play a few songs of Guitar Hero. xD
Ah no, I don't play games on smartphones or tablets. D: How is the new Cinderella Girls game? I absolutely love rhythm and music games!
Oh man I didn't even have time yet to finish watching season 1 from Cinderella Girls...I'm such a bad person. :< I now looked up some spoilers of season 2 and Anzu is so cute!!!! HNNNGG!
Haha yeah, that was pretty common in the 80's and 90's (make a career until you're married and then stay home for the kids). First both of my parents worked and then when my mom got married and had my sister she quit her job. She then started again after my sister and I were big enough to look after ourselves! ^^ Nowadays you don't see that more and it's pretty common for both parents to be working fulltime and the kids in daycare. A lot of my coworkers are young parents and can't pick the kids up much themselves.
As for my job, I'm still in the same position at work and I'm actively hunting for a better department with tasks that are more close to my liking! ;)

Some 75 per cent of companies are not ready for privacy changes and accompanying fines of up to $1.7 million that start on Wednesday, a survey has found.
But they aren't worried, according to a survey by
The survey, conducted by phone interviews with 50 senior technology officers of multinational and top 100 ASX companies, found that as many as three-quarters of businesses aren't ready for new privacy laws.
It also found that only 15 per cent of the 50 companies polled were considered likely or certain to be ready by their senior technology and network officers.
Further, 74 per cent of the officers said it was "highly unlikely" their organisations would be ready at all for the new Australian Privacy Principles, which are backed by civil fines of up to $1.7 million for companies and $340,000 for individuals.
Senetas chief executive
"I think that's what really makes an organisation sit up and pay attention," Mr Wilson said. Mandatory breach notification is in place in most US states, the EU and Britain.
The cost of compliance for firms also significantly outweighed the potential financial penalty for a breach, Mr Wilson said.
Experts told The Australian Financial Review the Privacy Commissioner's lack of teeth in the past may also have contributed.
"Businesses are failing to acknowledge the true cost of a data breach which includes not only regulatory penalties or possible civil litigation costs but also the risk of lost IP, damage to the brand's reputation, most importantly, the loss of trust and potential harm to their customers," said Mr Wilson.
Detailed disclosure
The new laws mandate detailed disclosure of how companies collect, store, use, disclose, provide access to and correct personal data. Tough special provisions cover direct marketing and the use of offshore cloud computing providers or other contractors to store and process personal data.
Senetas has a commercial interest in painting the state of unreadiness for the new privacy laws in as bad a light as possible.
It says more Australian companies need to use encryption services of the kind it sells to meet global best practice in personal data privacy.
Its figures are higher than anecdotal industry estimates published by the Financial Review on Monday that as many as half of Australian and multinational firms doing business here might not be ready.
But they echo similar themes. Many companies have approached the new laws complacently, underestimating the scale of the task and leaving their run to prepare it was too late.
Senetas found from in-depth phone calls with 50 senior officers that only one third had detailed knowledge of the new privacy laws, and only 14 per cent had sought specific legal advice about their potential liabilities.
More than 90 per cent said data security planning was driven by commercial imperatives, which did not include the potential impact of data security breaches on stakeholders or customers. Any changes needed to minimise the risk of data breaches would be subject to budgets.
Mr Wilson said the responses were particularly concerning given the growth of cloud computing, which often occurs offshore to save money. Some large cloud computing companies such as Amazon and Microsoft, offer an Australian based option to host customers' data, which can me more costly.

Army Lt. Col. Jon J. Lovald, Minnesota National Guard director of human resources offered an official statement as to the consequences of a U.S. government shutdown, beginning Tuesday, Oct. 1.
According to the Office of the Secretary of Defense, by law, the Department of Defense can only conduct activities designed to protect safety of life and property in the event of a lapse in appropriations.
The Minnesota National Guard began notifying military technicians Thursday that there is a potential for furloughs beginning on Oct. 1, if there is a government shutdown. Practical management requires that the Minnesota National Guard is prepared for all contingencies, including the possibility that a lapse could occur at the end of the month.
Approximately 2,100 full-time military personnel support the activities of the Minnesota National Guard and 1,118 are technicians subject to furloughs.
"In the event of a government shutdown, it is important that the people of Minnesota know that our citizen -soldiers and -airmen remain ready to respond to state or federal emergencies," said Lovald.
At Camp Ripley, staffs and agencies have been directed to begin notifying employees and service members of their status during a potential government shutdown. Camp Ripley will continue to support key military operations.

Thursday, June 28, 2012 5:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.
Location: At the harbor and at former Rockport Elementary School, West Street, Rockport, Maine
For more information: Jasie Costigan; 207-763-4478; mainewine.com
Cellardoor Winery and Megunticook Market will take guests on a dazzling journey to Motown at their fifth annual Pop the Cork party in Rockport on June 28. The evening will be highlighted by a concert by Boyz II Men, the silky-voiced, four-time Grammy winners whose records have out-sold all other male R&B groups. Pop the Cork tickets are limited and usually sell out, so everyone is encouraged to buy tickets early.
Midcoast Habitat for Humanity will receive one hundred percent of the proceeds from the evening, and Cellardoor's Bettina Doulton and Lani Temple of Megunticook Market say they are counting on another sell-out this year. "If we sell all the tickets," says Doulton, "it will be a big start toward building a house for a hardworking family in our community. That would be so wonderful!"
In addition to Boyz II Men, there will be more Motown music by the group North Shore Acapella, which was featured on NBC's "The Sing-Off"; plus Portland's own soulful 20-piece band, the Fogcutters.
The party will take place from 5:30 until 10 p.m. in two tented venues in Rockport. Doulton and Temple and their teams are busy putting the finishing touches on plans for the evening, which is always a spectacular celebration of the arts, wine, and food. The night's entertainment will be complemented by fabulous food from Megunticook Market and wines from Cellardoor's vintner Aaron Peet. Many new surprises are being planned as well, including a colorful troupe of performance artists.
Boyz II Men will sing their much-loved ballads, including "End of the Road," "I'll Make Love to You," and "One Sweet Day," which holds the record for number of weeks at the top of Billboard magazine's Hot 100. Their concert will also include Motown classics made famous by such legends as Marvin Gaye, the Temptations, and Smokey Robinson and the Miracles.
Pop the Cork 2012 is organized and produced by Bettina Doulton, owner of Cellardoor Winery, and Lani Temple, owner of Megunticook Market. Tickets are $75, which includes admission to all events, and advance purchase is required. Tickets can be purchased by calling the Winery at 207-763-4478. Check-in to the event will be held at the large tent on Rockport harbor, beginning at 5 p.m. Parking will be available at Camden Hills Regional High School on Route 90 in Rockport. Trolley service will be provided between the parking area and the two venues.

Just three years ago the world was entering a terrible economic crisis. If you don't remember, the official start date of the recession was December 2007, according to the National Bureau of Economic Research.
And now, look at us!
Well, that's enough self-reflection. Unfortunately, things are not quite copacetic just yet in the economy.
But on the bright side, the stock market has mostly rebounded from the depths reached in 2009. On March 9, 2009, the Standard and Poor's 500 index clocked in at 676.53. But on Tuesday, the index finished the day at 1,181.35.
The consistently positive movement upward has apparently soothed some of the angst investors may have felt last year. Some recent surveys have found that American investors are beginning to recover a little of their swagger.
For instance, a survey by Charles Schwab found that 88 percent of investors feel somewhat confident about making investment decisions.
As part of Schwab's quarterly investor confidence survey of their retail clients, fifty percent of their clients reported that now is a good time to invest in equities.
The survey was conducted in September, but the results were released Nov. 17.
Another investment company has also found that investors are feeling good about market prospects as 2010 begins to wind down.
A survey released Nov. 10 by Fidelity Investments found that more than a third, 31 percent, of active investors, defined as making 36 or more trades per year, expect the S&P 500 to rise more than 100 points by the end of the year.
More than half, 51 percent, expect the index to remain stable through the end of the year. Eighteen percent predict a decline.
How do you feel about the stock market today? Are you feeling more confident?

Historical Sailor's Boarding House with Modern Updates
There are traditional pubs, cobblestone streets, and a brass works near Chesapeake Bay in Baltimore; it almost feels like 19th-century London at times. This is where you'll find the red-bricked Admiral Fell Inn, situated on an inlet on the bay. The inn has a historical feel to it as well—it dates as far back as the 1770s, when some pieces of its multibuilding complex also served as a ship's chandlery, a theater, and a seamen's YMCA. European elements are evident throughout the property, too: inside the lobby, broad wooden slats stretch out before a crackling fire surrounded by regal high-backed chairs and low, sprawling couches.
Each of the uniquely decorated standard rooms exhibits a more American style; they evoke coastal New England towns with white walls, understated bedding, and cherry-wood accents. Each room has a different view, offering sights such as the historical Fell's Point Square, an inner courtyard, or tugboats chugging along in the harbor. Beyond the historical aesthetic are modern amenities, such as complimentary wireless Internet.
Within the hotel, the American Meli Patisserie & Bistro has a dining room and bar where you can get late-night drinks and desserts until 2 a.m. Lauded in Baltimore magazine's Best Restaurants 2011, Meli—which means "honey" in Italian—infuses each of its menu items with the sweet nectar, whether it be in one of the lip-smacking cocktails or starters such as the potato gnocchi with roasted butternut squash, broccolini, and mushrooms in a honey-sage butter. Even the ceiling pays tribute to the sweet syrup—it's modeled after the classic tessellation of a beehive.
Baltimore, Maryland: Historic Waterfront with Urbane Pub Scene
Shipbuilding and fishing largely shaped the village of Fell's Point, dating back to its roots when William Fell established the wharf in 1726. You can encounter many fabled spots on various neighborhood walking tours or even by embarking on a private stroll around the harbor. The village also has plenty to offer laid-back revelers in the form of eclectic shops and cozy taverns.
The harbor began to transform in the 1970s from a burgeoning seaport into Baltimore's cultural center. It has a bevy of galleries, shops, street performers, and harbor cruises where you can get skyline views of the city's plentiful churches and monuments.
Blocks away from Baltimore's Inner Harbor, bright lights emanate from the Power Plant Live compound, which features popular lounges and piano bars. Fresh seafood from Chesapeake Bay is always on hand at a variety of upscale and quick-eats restaurants, or by simply snatching a striped bass right out of a passing baby's hands.

Discrimination against the Deaf
Locate a Local Employment Lawyer
Are Deaf People Protected against Discrimination?
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a federal law that prevents discrimination against deaf people in employment, housing, at places of public accommodation (such as movie theaters), public services (such as transportation) and telecommunications.
Therefore, deaf people are entitled by federal and state law to certain services and protections against discrimination. A lawsuit may be brought if the services are not provided or a deaf person is discriminated against.
Employment Protections for Deaf People
Almost every state (and the federal government) has laws which prohibit employment discrimination based on disability, as long as the disability does not impair the employee's ability to do the job. As long as a deaf person can perform the functions of the job for which they were hired, the employer cannot take his or her disability into account when making employment decisions, such as:
- Hiring and firing
- Promotion
- Discipline
- Transfers
- Training
- Fringe and retirement benefits
- Investigations into hostile work environment and harassment
In order to qualify for protection though, the deaf person must apply for or hold an existing position and meet the minimum qualifications for the job.
Finally, the ADA requires employers to make reasonable accommodations for an employee's disability. For a deaf person, this might include installing a speech-to-text service for phone calls, keeping written records of meetings, and hiring a sign language translator, if doing so would not place too large of a burden on the company.
The accommodation is reasonable if the costs do not outweigh the benefits to the company. In some states, the accommodation can be an undue hardship in relation to the benefits to the accommodated worker.
Housing Protections for Deaf People
The ADA and the Fair Housing Act prohibit housing discrimination against deaf people who are seeking to rent or purchase a home. As long as the deaf person can pay rent, follow the terms of the lease, and in general be a good tenant, it is illegal to deny housing or engage in any acts which would dissuade them from purchasing or renting housing.
The exception to the reasonable accommodation rule, in the context of housing, is if such accommodations would create an undue hardship on the landlord or seller. The accommodations are considered an undue hardship in relation to the landlord or seller's financial situation.
What Services and Accommodations Are Deaf People Entitled to by Law?
Any business that offers goods or services to the public cannot discriminate against people who are deaf and must apply accommodations. This includes stores, theaters, restaurants, amusement parks, public transportation, housing, hotels, motels and government. However, it is important to note that many private clubs and religious businesses do not need to abide by these regulations. The following accommodations are required in most states:
- Assistive Listening Systems (ALS) – computer-aided transcription must be provided in any assembly area with a public address system and court hearings if a deaf person is a participant. Similarly, hotels must provide a caption-decoding device for the television.
- Hearing Aids – states are often required to provide a hearing aid if one is necessary for a person who is deaf to communicate in the workplace.
- Insurance – a person who is deaf cannot be denied insurance on that basis.
- Interpreters – must be provided in police interrogations, administrative hearings and court hearings, if the deaf person is a participant. Must also be provided by businesses, hospitals and universities if the deaf person is a customer, patient or student.
- Signal Dogs – can bring a signal dog to any commercial flight, business public transportation vehicle or rented housing and cannot require an extra charge, even if there is a no-pet policy.
- Teletypewriter (TTY) & Amplifiers – assists with telecommunications and must be provided to a person who is deaf, free of charge, by the local phone company. Must also be provided at major airports and railroad, bus and transit stations.
What Types of Discrimination Claims Can Be Brought?
The law protects persons who suffered discrimination from the government or a business, or whose employers or landlords did not provide reasonable accommodations. The person who is deaf can bring up to two types of disability discrimination cases:
- Disparate treatment (intentional discrimination)
- disparate impact (unintentional discrimination)
Do I Need a Lawyer?
If you think you have been discriminated against because you are deaf, you should contact a lawyer as soon as possible. Your attorney will help you understand the complexity of law and determine where the boundaries of discrimination law are in your state.

Cantata Singers Present 50th Anniversary Season Finale Tonight
Cantata Singers presents the final concert of its 50th Anniversary Season with a program that celebrates the organization's commitment to the continually rewarding exploration of Bach's cantatas, as well as to creating new repertoire for the canon.
A singular desire to bring to Boston's listeners music that isn't being heard anywhere else has inspired Cantata Singers' programming for 50 years.
In 1964, that music included the cantatas of J.S. Bach. Today, it may be hard for us to believe, but when Cantata Singers was founded in 1964, live performances of Bach cantatas were quite a rarity. In fact, Cantata Singers' early concerts featured the first Boston performances of many of the cantatas.
Bach's music, from the cantatas to the B-minor Mass to the Passions, remains an essential part of Cantata Singers' repertoire. However, the ensemble's repertoire has expanded to include music from the 17th century to today. Cantata Singers has commissioned 13 works for choir and orchestra-including one that was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in Music-and has presented more than fifty Boston premieres of music both old and new.
Cantata Singers has always focused on the music-be it by Bach, Verdi, Harbison, or Pärt-and its audiences do, too. Our audiences return year after year to hear fresh visions of iconic music, or an intriguing unfamiliar work that is-in fact-quite approachable. Each Cantata Singers concert is often surprising, sometimes challenging, always beautiful, and ultimately inspiring.
Cantata Singers' 50th Anniversary season finale concert, featuring music by J.S. Bach, Jan Dismas Zelenka, and the World Premiere of The Supper at Emmaus by John Harbison, is set for NEC's Jordan Hall, 30 Gainsborough Street, Boston MA tonight, May 9th, 2014 at 8:00pm. Pre-concert talk at 7:00pm with composer John Harbison. Post-concert reception, free to all ticketholders.

I want to upgrade my ancient JavaScript popups to something a little nicer. I'd like as much freedom to style my popups as possible, and I'd like to be able to open multiple popups at the same time. (I just upgraded to a non-JQuery popup script that works nice, but it will only open one popup at a time.)
Anyway, I wondered if anyone can recommend a good JQuery popup script that you've tested. I've found lots of stuff in Google, but I tried a couple that didn't work, and a few others cost money. (I'd normally buy them, but I'm really broke this month.)
Thanks for any tips.

Governor Signs Drilling Bill But Orders Environmental Update
Governor David Paterson signed a bill this afternoon to streamline the application process for drilling in New York's Marcellus Shale, but he also ordered the state to update its 1992 generic environmental impact statement in the process.
The directive comes one day after the release of a joint investigation by ProPublica and WNYC radio into the state's regulatory and environmental oversight of the gas industry. The report found that the state was relying on a 16-year-old environmental review and had not addressed the large quantities of water needed for the drilling, or the treatment of that water as toxic waste.
In a release that accompanied the announcement of the bill's signing, Department of Environmental Conservation commissioner Pete Grannis promised that "DEC will be vigilant in ensuring environmental safeguards. Water protection will be a top priority."
"The update will examine potential impacts from new horizontal drilling techniques, including potential impacts to groundwater, surface water, wetlands, air quality, aesthetics, noise, traffic and community character, as well as cumulative impacts. The update will occur as part of a public process that ensures that concerns raised by residents who could be affected by drilling activities are heard and considered.
"In addition, DEC is reviewing a variety of other areas, including staff resources, existing regulations, jurisdiction over water withdrawals, permit application fees and procedures, and legal and regulatory compliance, that could be implicated by increased drilling activity."
There's more to say about what this all really means, so check back for developments tomorrow.
Fracking: Gas Drilling's Environmental Threat
The promise of abundant natural gas is colliding with fears about water contamination.
The Story So Far
The country's push to find clean domestic energy has zeroed in on natural gas, but cases of water contamination have raised serious questions about the primary drilling method being used. Vast deposits of natural gas, large enough to supply the country for decades, have brought a drilling boom stretching across 31 states. The drilling technique being used, called hydraulic fracturing, shoots water, sand and toxic chemicals into the ground to break up rock and release the gas.

Jeep Australia's Partners Team Up to Toughen Up
MELBOURNE – Nov 30, 2012: The Fiat Chrysler Group has announced that two of their premier ambassador groups have joined forces in a bid to improve their physical and mental stamina.
Mark Visser, Jeep Grand Cherokee driver, big wave surfer and elite athlete adventurer, has flown to Cairns in far north Queensland to run training sessions with leading AFL football club, the mighty Richmond Tigers. The aim is to make the Tigers even tougher as part of their pre-season training.
Visser is an international expert on underwater fitness training – a handy skill considering his day job is surfing 40 foot monster waves – and shares his techniques with elite athletic groups to help them reach the pinnacle of mental and physical fitness. Although the Richmond Tigers are, according to one commentator, "as fit as Mallee bulls," the team is very excited about honing their toughness in preparation for the 2013 season.
The training sessions involved teaching the Tigers breath-holding techniques that allow people to stay alive in situations previously considered impossible to survive, and which enable them to stay calm under extreme physical pressure.
Sam Tabart, director of marketing at the Fiat Chrysler Group, commented on the commonalities between the two Jeep ambassador groups.
"Mark and the Tigers have been an integral and rewarding part of our brand platform and it's great to see two of our longest standing partners join forces.
"Both groups share the Jeep philosophies of passion and strength and epitomize the Jeep mantra of "Don't Hold Back," Tabart said.
Mark Visser will feature in the latest Jeep Wrangler television commercial, scheduled to air in January 2013.

Top 5 French Bakeries in Houston: Bon Appétit
You won't find these exact pastries in Houston; they're from Paris. However, there are fabulous French bakeries in Houston.
Photo by Molly Dunn
One of my fondest memories of traveling to Paris was buying a baguette that was nearly as tall as I was. My mother and I gathered slices of prosciutto, pont-l'Évêque cheese, apples, strawberries and grapes from a farmers' market to make a picnic lunch behind the Eiffel Tower -- all we needed was some bread. As soon as we walked inside the bakery, we were hit with the smell of freshly baked bread. The baguette was warm and soft on the inside yet crispy and crunchy on the outside. It was absolutely perfect. And it was nearly five feet long.
When made properly, French pastries, breads, sweets and cookies can make everything seem right. For that brief moment when you bite into a buttery, flaky croissant or pain au chocolat, you are in heaven.
In an ideal world, I would travel to Paris any time I wanted a macaron, éclair or warm hunk of baguette spread with butter, but alas, that is impossible. Thankfully, Houston is home to some outstanding French bakeries. So, without further ado, here are the top five French bakeries in our fair city.
These macarons are almost too pretty to eat.
Photo by Molly Dunn
Bite Macarons opened just a few months ago, but is already making quite an impression on Houstonians looking for a beautiful, sweet and delicate macaron. The store features a wide variety of flavors, including the classic pistachio, rose and lemon, as well as more exotic ones such as blood orange, Earl Grey and salted caramel. Executive Pastry Chef Sandia Horng creates perfect macarons -- the crust on each meringue is crispy on the outside, soft and sticky on the inside; each filling, no matter which flavor, is creamy, smooth and decadent. Horng is also introducing other types of pastries, including classic French tarts. The simple, fresh fruit tart has a sweet and delicate crust with a vanilla bean custard filling and is topped with fresh seasonal berries. The honeycomb pecan tart is the ideal fix for your sweet-tooth craving; it's filled with crunchy pecan pieces. While Bite Macarons currently offers only two classic patisseries, it nails each of them. We can't wait to taste the new additions to the menu.
You can't go wrong with a palmier or almond croissant from French Gourmet Bakery and Cafe.

This adorable French bakery off of Westheimer stands out to those driving through River Oaks. The light-orange building with bright-blue window coverings is home to some of the best croissants, palmiers and quiches in the city. Upon entering the bakery, you will instantly smell fresh pastry dough baking in the back and salivate over the marvelous display of croissants, cookies, éclairs and tarts. Stay for lunch and enjoy a sandwich made with one of the bakery's croissants, baguettes or country French bread, or grab a pastry and cup of coffee to go for your morning commute. The bakery also makes French and American cakes suitable for any birthday or holiday celebration.Next Page

Being a film major I love movies. Mostly stuff that would be considered top 100 movies, but thankfully I still enjoy some of the really bad movies that come out. Some favorites are The Lost Boys, Most Johnny Depp movies, Empire Records, Garden state, Anything Chris Nolan does (Memento, Inception, new Batman). Anything Alfred Hitchcock touches. Plus so many more.
My other passion is music. Mostly pop punk and indie/folk, but will literally listen to anything. New Found Glory, The Format, Fun., Say Anything, A Day To Remember, Childish Gambino, Of Monsters and Men, Hit the Lights, City and Colour, The Wonder Years, and Foo Fighters, but there is so much more.
TV shows : Gotham, Sonic Highways, How To Get Away With Murder, Top Chef, Adventure Time, Game of Thrones,
I love food. A lot of what would be considered "American" style, but will try anything at least once. Anything the Charm City guys touch is delicious. Pizza is life.
Good times
The opposite sex.
I'd rather be at a show.

US struggles with cyber-crime
The US Government lacks the resources to deal effectively with the growing menace of cyber-crime, hi-tech companies believe.
Database giant Oracle has notified the government of a few threats, Bill Maimone, Oracle's vice president of server technologies told a conference this week.
Authorities stymied
Authorities know they have to do more, and the FBI has asked Congress for $75m to better police cyberspace.
In 1998, the Justice Department was successful in prosecuting only one out of every 50 cyber-crime complaints from private industry, according to the latest figures from the department.
At a Stanford University Law School conference on cyber-crime on Wednesday, US Attorney-General Janet Reno said the private and public sectors must co-operate.
But as the threat of cyber-crime has grown, they have had to try to keep pace without adding staff.
Congress says no
The Clinton administration has asked Congress for additional staff for fighting cyber-crime for the past four years, but each time, Congress has refused.
"We're only able to respond to a limited number of the complaints we receive because we're starved for resources," said Associate Deputy Attorney General John Bentivoglio.
And as funding has remained flat, the number of computer crimes has exploded, quadrupling in the last four years, according to a survey by the FBI and San Francisco's Computer Security Institute.
As the number of attacks and intrusions rises, the cost is expected to skyrocket.
Corporations spent $7.1bn last year to protect themselves against cyber-attacks, and that number could increase to $17bn by 2003, according to the Aberdeen Group, an IT consultancy in Boston.
'Digital Storm'
The $75m budget request from the FBI in next year's budget would include $15m for a system dubbed "Digital Storm".
"Advanced digital collection (will) increase the number of (wiretaps) by as much as 300% over the next 10 years," according to the FBI's budget request.
Privacy concerns
But the FBI will have to satisfy privacy concerns as it works to adapt law enforcement in the information age.
Digital Storm and other proposals worry privacy groups such as the Centre for Democracy and Technology (CDT).
Individuals should not have to voluntarily surrender their privacy by using new computer and communications technologies, James X. Dempsey, senior staff counsel for CDT, told a House of Representatives subcommittee.
He says the government needs to translate Constitutional protections to the "global, decentralised, networked environment of the Internet".

" Brand: Mutsy "
* Prices may differ from that shownMore Offers
It took me a long time to decide which pram system I wanted to buy for my son....after all it is a big purchase & there are so many options & features nowadays, making it difficult to figure out which combination will suit you best. I opted for the 'Mutsy' (pronounced 'Mootsy') 4-Rider light. Mutsy is a Dutch company, making their products a little harder to find here in the UK (which suits me just fine - I like to have something a little 'different'!).
There are several options available for sitting/laying baby down - all of which can be attached to the chassis with great ease, & can be positioned either forward or rear facing. As well as buying the pushchair & car seat, I splashed out on the carrycot too. Carry cots are recommended for use until babies are 6 months old, as a flat position helps the spine develop correctly.
The Mutsy carrycot is available in 3 styles - 'Active', Team' & 'College'. Each style is then available in several colours. (See mutsy.nl for the full listings). I knew I wanted the College style which has takes on the style of an American sports team, with logo's such as 'Mutsy Sports' & 'Baby Team 01'. Having opted for the pushchair & carseat in 'Ocean' colour, I went for the green carry cot, just to vary things up a little (by the way the colour in the above picture is a little misleading - the shade of green is more of a khaki green).
The carry cot is full size (same size as a moses basket), & can also be used for overnight sleeping & daytime naps. (Personally I used a seperate moses basket, but you could save some money by using the pram carry cot for this purpose). The cot comes with a mattress & also features a carry handle which can be unclipped & stowed away in a pocket on the front - this is useful for anyone wanting to take the carrycot off the chassis with baby still sleeping in it.
The cot has a removable padded liner which can be machine washed - a very useful feature! There is a full-size hood which can be easily put up or down by pushing 2 buttons - one on either side of the cot. A removable apron is included, which is easily fastened on by 2 press-studs either side. The exterior of the apron also features a very useful large zip pocket, which is discretely hidden. One downside is that the apron cannot be fastened on, but with the raised flap down so that you can keep a closer eye on baby. I find that when my son is awake, he would prefer to see more of what's going on, but then ends up kicking the apron off if it is not tethered!
Another useful feature (which also contributes to the overall styling of the 'College' range) are several zip pockets around the exterior of the carry cot. There is a large pocket on the rear of the hood, & 2 further small zip pockets along either side of the cot exterior.
The carrycot retails around £120-£130 (internet prices tend to be around the same as in-store prices, but since the Mutsy brand is often difficult to locate, it is probably easier to purchase from the internet). Package deals can often be found on the internet, such as chassis & carrycot together. This saves a few quid, but not usually a great deal.
Overall I'm really happy with the carrycot. It's such a unique style & I am frequently stopped by people in the street who want to know where I bought it.
The mutsy carrycot is the perfect environment to place your new born baby, they offer complete protection and comfort for your child.
