The decision to outsource manufacturing to a contract manufacturer comprises two basic choices.
You can either transfer management of your existing supply base to your assembly partner or let them use their own suppliers.
Most EMS providers are happy to work both ways however many Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) end up allowing their contract manufacturer to choose its own suppliers.
Why? Because, from a cost perspective, it often just doesn't make sense for an OEM to maintain its own procurement team alongside its EMS partner's operation.
And if your assembly partner has already proven its reliability, then it makes sense to entrust it with greater responsibility.
In any case, it's relatively easy for an OEM to determine whether an EMS provider has a reliable supplier base.
Reputable EMS's will have long-standing relationships in place with their suppliers. They will have selected suppliers that can demonstrate an intimate understanding of the market, are capable of producing a wide range of products and can cope with the inevitable peaks and troughs in demand.
And a word of warning. If the EMS provider you are considering to move forward with needs to establish a significant proportion of the supply chain in order to accommodate your business, ask yourself how far their reach is.
An established EMS should already have a global supply chain in place. Of course, they may need to set up a handful of new suppliers when they first take over a project but the majority of the material needed to assemble your product should be able to be managed through their existing supply partners.

The Cat Rescuer of the Day
The Cat Rescuers is an upcoming documentary about four dedicated volunteers who are saving the lives of hundreds of abandoned and feral cats on the streets of Brooklyn.
Our film calls attention to a global issue being addressed by thousands of organizers and heroic human beings – those who do TNR, volunteer at shelters, take on fosters, what have you. Since we could only put a fraction of those wonderful people in our film, we've created the Cat Rescuer of the Day program to celebrate the efforts of as many as possible.
Meet Today's Rescuer: Abby from Washington DC!
Abby has worked with Humane Rescue Alliance, City Dogs Rescue & Kitties, Animal Welfare League of Arlington, and Lost Dog & Cat Rescue.
Rescue Efforts:
Mostly I focus on kittens. For the last three years I have been an active kitten foster through several DC based organizations, primarily through the Humane Rescue Alliance (HRA). In addition to fostering with HRA I also volunteer to work with other fosters with kittens they are fostering – answering questions and trying to triage non-medical issues. I also do quite a bit of foster work with shy or semi-feral kittens up to six months of age, working with them to socialize them so they can be adopted!
One Rescue I'll Never Forget Was…
There are so many special stories! Since I work with kittens, sometimes they come into the shelter with such a sad story, left behind at such a young age and completely unable to care for themselves. Singleton kittens can be one of the most rewarding kitten experiences. If you are lucky, they get paired with at least one other kitten when they are sent into foster.
Once, I took in a mom and her three babies and a singleton kitten named Adelphi. Adelphi was tiny (under one lb) and all on his own. The mom ended up rejecting her babies once we got everyone into my home, so I ended up having to bottle feed the babies, but Adelphi took over the rest.
He taught those kittens how to play, how to eat, how to use the litter box, and most of all how to love. From the moment he was paired with those babies (which was five minutes before they were put in the carrier to go in my car) he loved on them and was so happy to have found playmates. He was always cleaning everyone and snuggling with them. He ended up going to his forever home with one of the others and they are still snuggle buddies today.
One Thing I wish People Understood about Cats or Cat Rescuing Is…
Getting involved in cat rescue can be at any level of commitment of time and resources. You do not have quit your job to do it or sell you home to pay for it! If you cannot take cats into your home to foster, there are so many other ways to help shelters and rescue organizations in your community. For me, getting involved in fostering brought a fulfillment into my life that I did not know was possible. I am eternally grateful to those that I work with. Cat rescue does not mean you will end up owning lots of cats! To give the gift of helping an animal in need find a better life is in fact a gift to yourself!
When I'm Not Rescuing Cats, I Like to…
I love to travel and be outdoors.
I'm Looking Forward to The Cat Rescuers Film Because…
I know it will shed light on an area where we need more help and inspire more people to get involved.

A recently discovered new form of Android malware called DroidCleaner can not only infect your smartphone, but also targets your PC to spy on you.
Researchers at the security firm Kaspersky Labs have uncovered new malware which poses as a "cleaner" app — or an app used to free memory on Google's OS — in the Google (GOOG) Play app store. Once an Android user downloads the app, the malware infects the user's smartphone and can also be uploaded to the user's PC if they plug the device into their Windows computer in the USB drive mode.
While the malware that attacks the smartphone is more sophisticated than the malware that infects the PC, according to Kaspersky, the primary function of the malware that installs on the computer is pretty invasive.
The malware that runs on an infected user's PC can take control of the microphone on the machine and use it to eavesdrop. As soon as the microphone detects sound, it can begin to record the audio and then send it back to cyber criminals.
Kaspersky points out, however, that if a user has a current version of Microsoft (MSFT) Windows, then the function that automatically allowed the malware to be installed will not work because the setting is disabled on current versions. The PC attack is really focused at users that are using older versions of Microsoft Windows.
As for the malware installed on a user's smartphone, Kaspersky researcher Victor Chebyshev said in a blog post that it was the first time his firm has seen "such an extensive feature set in one mobile application."
Some of the functions the malware can perform on an infected device include:
Sending SMS messages
Enabling Wi-Fi
Gathering information about the device
Opening arbitrary links in a browser
Uploading the SD card's entire contents
Uploading all SMS messages
Deleting all SMS messages
Uploading all the contacts/photos/coordinates from the device master

Today many NHS and health trust managers rely heavily on the versatility of care agencies, to supply quality nursing staff quickly and effectively to meet their demands and staff shortfalls.
In the public or private domain SureCare offers direct experience in these markets and the problems which can arise. We can therefore supply solutions by using the experience of our in-house officers, who have been active in the field of community care since 1989 and in nursing care since 2009
Staff are only entered onto the SureCare register once they have completed a rigorous recruitment procedure, which includes at least one formal interview, an induction course in how and in what way SureCare wants to deliver it's care, a comprehensive professional and personal referencing process and full quality briefing.
From the viewpoint of a user of the nursing service, Surecare can be relied upon, not only to supply a nurse at short notice or prearranged time, but will, subject to availability, offer a range of individuals with a variety of additional experience, grade and clinical specialties. Quality of service supply however does not end there, Surecare operate a system of following up each assignment of its nursing staff, with a brief quality questionnaire and pledge that, if for whatever reason, we receive 3 or more negative responses regarding a particular individuals clinical skills or professionalism, whilst on assignment, we will cease using the services of that nurse through our agency.
This pledge therefore not only promises to service users a practical quality commitment, but allows the nursing staff of Surecare to be viewed as belonging to an agency who has and will maintain, their professional status.

In advance of visits to Japan this Autumn, and the release of the album "Illumination" there, journalist, writer and broadcaster Naoki Hayashida interviews Composer and Artistic Director of Anúna Michael McGlynn.
Please tell me about ANÚNA at its foundation, just come together in 1987, for example, the concept and atmosphere of the members.
First it was a sound in my head. Then I had to get people to make it. I didn't realise at the time that that was not the way things were supposed to be done in classical music as I only began to sing in a choir at the very late age of nineteen years. I spent about four years trying to create the noise that I could hear very clearly in my ears, and I wrote songs to help my singers create that sound.
Early concerts were a mashing together of medieval music, contemporary music, some traditional and rock music and then my own material of which there was very little performed by us at that stage. I remember us standing on Grafton Street singing an arrangement I had done the night before of U2's "Mysterious Ways" with Bono listening on the launch day for the album in Dublin. We did everything – and Anúna could have just turned into a novelty choral group able to do jazz, rock, folk and classical. But even at this early point in Anúna's life it was my own work that was getting the strongest reaction from the audience. So I chose very early on to stop performing works by other composers and writers, and to concentrate on reinterpreting the music and literature that inspired me from my homeland.
The singers were and continue to pass through our group. Some are very influential and have a deep personal relationship with what Anúna is and what it stands for. Some do not really understand what the basic nature of the group is, but everyone of us is affected by what we do. In the very earliest times of the choir the singers were not engaged with the ethos that we now recognise as Anúna. This is very understandable, as I did not clearly see what we were doing myself! It is very hard to explain a sound.
What has been inherited, never changed, since the beginning until now where ANÚNA has became a world renowned ensemble?
Me I suppose!
I have a sound in my head that I want to create and mould as I wish. The singers are the instrument, and I encourage and train them to be the most accomplished that they can be as vocalists. In recent years we have clarified and created the Anúna Method of choral singing, and this has helped enormously in unifying the vocal sound of the group. Also many of the singers in the last two years in particular have become actively involved in defining that special sound we make, and this has been very exciting to see.
Our Method is a simple idea – a child can breathe, stand and sing naturally and with a relaxed flow of air. We spend our later childhood and adulthood forgetting what we could do so naturally when we were five or six years old. So, I try to take the singers back to that time, before they were able to hide their true selves. It can be very hard with some people to be honest and open when they sing. Much of our adult existence is taken with concealing how we feel. The purpose of the Anúna Method is to facilitate the singers to transmit genuine emotion and truth – both the true nature of themselves as singers and, for me at least, the truth that is within the texts that I set to music or the songs that I arrange.
In the last year or so we have begun to give workshops of this Method. We learn as much from these as the participants do, so I am very excited about travelling Japan in advance of the tour to pass on some of these methods to singers and choral ensembles. This technique, I believe, is at the basis for what distinguishes Anúna from so many other choral groups all over the world today. We analyse and develop our vocal sound at every rehearsal and every show. No two performances are the same in any way. That is what it has always been like, and why I continue to perform with the choir after so long.
Which composers of church music of the Medieval/Renaissance are you influenced by? Also, how are you influenced specifically?
Gesualdo, Victoria, Tallis, Palestrina and Machaut would be my greatest influences. I love the work of Purcell and early Medieval music too. I have also been strongly influenced by the work of Hildegard von Bingen, the great German mystic. I'm not particularly interested in whether something is sacred or secular.
I recently wrote a piece for the American ensemble New York Polyphony which strongly echoes the tonalities of Carlo Gesualdo called "O Pia Virgo". I particularly like his work, as the sense of the unexpected can catch your breath. Hildegard's influence can be strongly heard on my arrangement of "Jerusalem" and my "Sanctus", with their meditative purpose and the arching soprano lines that echo her own musical phrases.
My use of block, homophonic writing could be traced back to Renaissance masters. Palestrina has been a particular influence in relation to the use of motifs within phrases and harmonic structures. I love also the energy of early music. The first time I heard Perotin's "Viderunt Omnes" many decades ago I knew that this was the kind of atmosphere I wanted to generate in my own compositions.
The oldest forms of Irish and Scottish music have always been of great inspiration too – Psalm singing from the Western Isles, Puirt a Bueil and the long and elegant phrases from Irish traditional slow airs have blended together with these medieval colours to produce my particular compositional voice.
Is Anuna music created by singing with a clear musical score, like a classical choral ensemble? Or is each member doing something improvisational or using personal decoration? Otherwise, do you it create only in a studio while recording?
Unfortunately there is no improvisational element to Anúna. That may change with time, but every note that the choir sing or that is heard on CD is notated. In Ireland the art of classical singing is not old. People from Southern Ireland have a great sense of being musicians, and there is much great music happening in other musical forms such as Traditional music and Rock music. In Classical music it is very different. It is often closed and a clique. I don't like cliques. I often find it difficult to get Southern Irish singers that can read music, but it is almost impossible to get young Irish singers who do read music adequately and have choral experience to audition for Anúna and they often have no understanding or appreciation of what Anúna does and what it stands for.
Anúna and my own work as a composer have always existed outside of music in Ireland. Far too difficult to put in a category or musical box. Riverdance was not a help to us in that respect, as people still associate us with the myriad of Irish shows that promote Ireland as a country of athletic dance champions or ballad groups. We are not a traditional music ensemble, nor a classical chamber choir. We are admired by some musicians here, but in my specific field of composition and choral music we are pretty much ignored.
In the last few years most of the singers we have taken in are from Northern Ireland, which is part of the United Kingdom. They have a much better music education system and Anúna is very well respected there by many musicians. We also have singers from other cultures – Dutch, Italian, American, English – I am always very happy to include singers from different musical backgrounds. It provides a perspective to the music that is vital to keeping it fresh. Although we travel with only twelve singers, they are drawn from a pool of up to twenty five from all over the world.
ANUNA's music consists of not only Irish but also various traditional music from all over the UK, Europe and beyond. Is there any point in common?
There is no conscious point. Sometimes when I put an album together I see patterns forming that I was completely unaware of after the fact. Yes, I have a very strong sympathetic reaction to Ireland itself, understandably. I use it as a battery charge in many ways and that helps me work. But it is only one place, and the people's experience here is often limited and sometimes, as with all small countries, parochial and without a world view. My inspirations are sited within the land of Ireland, but my intellectual stimulation comes from outside it.
In my art forms of choral music and composition, I no longer gain inspiration or stimulation from working in Ireland, which has always been a source of regret to me. I don't work here either as a composer or as a performer with my group Anúna despite my best efforts. This has had quite a negative effect on my work unfortunately. It is hard to create in a place where there is no interaction with other artists. So when I travel, and increasingly I am doing that, I interact as much as I can with everyone I meet. That, I suppose, is the thing that ties my work together in an indirect way.
Outside influences are what have created Anúna and my own compositional voice. The musical inspiration I have gained from my home country has come from my limited exposure to the traditional music of my land and the sublime texts that flood out of the mouths of Irish writers, past and present. Writers in every culture have drawn on their own homeland for their inspiration. It is no different in most great literary countries.
Ancient words from past centuries are often used in ANÚNA's lyrics. I guess you have researched these a lot. So, how has experiencing many languages from ancient cultures influenced you?
I majored in English when I went to college. Throughout my career as a composer I have concentrated on the relationship of language to music. I see my compositions and arrangements as creations to transmit information, not really as entities in themselves. Often I will choose a text because it touches me very deeply, and more often I will write a song text because I have a feeling that I want to transmit, maybe something I have felt while out in the Irish landscape.
Ireland is an ancient place, and all ancient places have a resonance or an echo from the past. I believe that my compositions have a dual relationship to this resonance. I remember those people that lived, loved, worked, played and died in the past. But also there is something else – something I cannot put easily in words. You could call it a subliminal understanding of the land itself. Ireland has a particularly strong aura within the landscape. I have been to many countries, and often this aura is hidden under cities or manicured by farming or even tourism, so it is less obvious than in Ireland. But it is there nonetheless. In a recent visit to Arizona I was deeply effected by the sensations of the American landscape in that area, and it has compelled me to find out more about the Native Americans and their relationship to that land.
One of the reasons I love travelling to Japan is because I believe that many Japanese people understand this aura better than Westerners. It is part of your culture, your heritage. It is in your literature, your art, your traditional and contemporary music. The main reason I set older texts is because I believe that virtually everything that we need to say about the human condition as artists has already been said. All we are doing is finding new ways of saying the same thing over and over again. It was David Bowie who said that he has been writing about the same things all his artistic life. Maybe that is because only the simplest things are of any importance in the greater scheme of this existence.
The lyrics of "Illumination" which is the album title, is like a letter from past to present, I'm very interested in it. What kind of person was James Galwey who passed away in 1627? Why is this song titled "Illumination"? Please let me know about the source of this song in as much detail as possible.
There is nothing more illuminating than death. In modern culture it is seen as a horrific thing, something to be terrified of and to deny. In ancient cultures death was present in every aspect of daily life, so it is seen as something inevitable and part of the natural cycle of things. The atmosphere I tried to create in this piece was one of acceptance of what cannot be changed. We remember those who have passed on because the realisation of the fragility and beauty of life enhances the experience of it. You could imagine that Lucy Champion's voice on the solo is that of the soul itself, soaring above the declamatory voices of the congregation. It sings with them, but also exists above them, almost like an angelic guide to acceptance and illumination. We know nothing about Galwey except what is left carved on a stone, but I imagine such a philosophical man is one that I would have liked very much.
Strangely enough, the song "Mignonne Allons" which is in French and dates from the sixteenth century is like a companion piece to "Illumination". For the Japanese release of the album I have recorded my eldest daughter Aisling, who is ten years old, singing with me as a duet. That song expands on this theme. The rose, so beautiful in flower, has scattered its petals all over the grass. We are no different to a flower, so we must value what we have and accept what we cannot change.
In the case of a Japanese Amateur Choir trying to sing one of your songs, what points should they take note of?
If you buy my music from my website at www.michaelmcglynn.com, it comes automatically with pronunciation guides if it is in the Irish language. While the language is difficult, it is less difficult that English! No, Japanese choirs have no problem with singing my songs at all. If they do not make the sound artificial and forced, for example, singing the songs that are folk-like in a classical manner or ignoring the speed markings, any choir in the world is perfectly capable of singing these pieces.
I am so proud that my choral music has introduced so many people all over the world to the beauty of the Irish language and the songs that I loved as a child. However, much of my output is in other languages – Latin, English etc. Choirs would need to approach such pieces as they would any other work by a contemporary composer.
I heard that you performed for the children of Fukushima Elementary School. Thank you very much. Please tell me your impression of that time. The tragedy is still continuing in silence. Please give your message to the people in Fukushima who are still suffering having been driven from their contaminated homes.
There is no need to thank me or any of the singers who travelled so soon after the disaster to Fukushima. We were honoured to have been able to sing for those children. We were not representing Ireland, just ourselves. We were humbled by the strength and positive mindset of the people we met. Our intention of going there was to raise awareness in Japan of the great horror that had been visited on these innocent people.Our music is often called healing music in your country, and if it gave any comfort at all to the people of the area I am very grateful for that.
In great disaster we see the true nature of humanity. If there has been any good to be salvaged from this terrible event it is that there has been a greater strengthening of community and a desire to help others. I am so looking forward to returning to meet the children of Iwaki, as they performed brilliantly for us and their energy and joy on that day has stayed with me

Topology is the field of Mathematics that studies properties of spaces and objects which are not affected by continuous deformations. For instance, properties such as length or curvature are not topological while the number of holes in an object is a topological property. Topology has tight connections and many interactions with other fields, including Differential Geometry, Algebra, Combinatorics, Mathematical Physics and Applied Mathematics. The research interests of our Topology faculty are very diverse and cover several topics such as:
Our group works closely with the Differential Geometry and Geometric Analysis group. We have many overlapping interests and hold many joint seminars. In particular, the combined Geometry & Topology group at MSU has a long history in mentoring and training successful graduate students and postdoctoral fellows.

Sanskrit Quote : Category Good Speech
|कटु क्वणन्तो मलदायका खला:
तुदन्त्यलं बन्धनशृङ्खला इव।
मनस्तु साधुध्वनिभि: पदेपदे
हरन्ति सन्तो मणिनूपुरा इव॥
English Translation of Sanskrit Quote:-
Spewing dirty, harsh speech, the wicked, torture much, like an arresting iron chain. The good, on the other hand, captivate the mind at each step,by their nice (sweet) speech like bejeweled anklets."
Commentaryon Sanskrit Quote:
This time, it is about good and bad speech from Banabhatta. This is taken from "Kadambari".
This seems so obvious and oft-written, but going by the way it is taken for granted, the purport is usually missed. We hardly stop to think about our daily speech and its consequences, before it is uttered. There is a proverb in kannada to this effect- "ಮಾತು ಆಡಿದರೆ ಹೋಯ್ತು, ಮುತ್ತು ಒಡೆದರೆ ಹೋಯ್ತು." a speech is done when it is uttered and a pearl is spoiled when it is broken- they can never be the same.
Restraint over thought and speech is something hard to come by. Everything happens in MIND as the Buddha says, before it is translated into deeds. Tongues wag as if by force of habit. A little restraint goes a long way in setting a salutary mood around. The quality of being taciturn or silent is for the same reason extolled very much in every literature. They say "Silence is Gold".
Our speech reveals so much about us- our mood and mindset, our upbringing and our culture, our education and tolerance-level. It is interesting to note the simile Banabhatta uses to denote harsh and healing speech. The harsh and unwelcome speech is like an iron chain which can taint by rust. It also gives out an unmusical clang when it is shaken. We speak such harsh words, most of the times it makes a deep dent in the mind of the hearer. It also transfers the dirt of thought to another person just as an iron chain showers rust.
A person with his sweet disposition and healing words is comparable to a bejeweled anklet with its musical and timid -jingling sound. It pleases and attracts, creating an ambience of friendship and love. You ask for more of it.

Tens and transcutaneous electrical nerve muscle stimulation machine
Transcutaneous electrical nerve muscle stimulation machines are a highly effective soreness management device that has been developed to help people with all kinds of pain problems. It differs from the management of chronic and enduring pains to temporary pains that are much more intense and require a remedy that will help reduce the effects of such a pain. Examples of these types of would be to manage the continuing pain of arthritis or perhaps gout as an enduring pain that lasts a long time. Regarding the short term discomfort that are much more intensive you could compare them to child beginning as an example. There's been a substantial amount of scepticism about their effectiveness, but once you try using it you will experience it for yourself.
The name itself may seem arbitrary or over and above the need of any medical condition that could occur outside of a hospital, but a Tens Machines is portable and perfectly safe for simple treatments for pains that are intense and short term like labor for example. More enduring pains just like arthritis or gout can affect you on a long term basis. It might take a while before the pain for that subsides and you also have to take medication to be able to get rid of the feeling caused from the arthritis.
The severity of gout may require the fluids to be extracted from the joints to be able to alleviate the pain. Fortunately, you can change your diet so that your body stops producing the uric acid that receives trapped in your joints in the first place. In the at the same time, you need some kind of remedy for the pain until the uric acid is broken down over time. Sadly, this you experience from it until that happens is unbearable. Fortunately, you can remedy the problem and never have to experience it without the hassle of taking medicine that can affect your own liver renal system in a negative way.
The way it works is by transmitting short bursts of electrical impulses through a group of electrodes which are stuck to the skin. The impulses stimulate the central nervous system straight into force the body to produce the particular normal pain killers that the body can produce on its own. Dopamine and endorphins help the body cope and eradicate pain in a natural way. At a higher frequency rate the electrodes actually block out the pain altogether, leaving you clear of the pain you have under the normal circumstances of any kind of given ailment.
Gout natural remedy Gout natural remedies are much sought after by gout sufferers who aren t pleased with their mainstream drug-based gout remedies and continuing gout attacks. Gout natural remedies are safe and easy to use because these natural gout cures use...

EPA Guidelines
EPA Requirements
Common renovation activities like sanding, cutting, and demolition can create hazardous lead dust and chips by disturbing lead-based paint, which can be harmful to adults and children.
To protect against this risk, on April 22, 2008, EPA issued a rule requiring the use of lead-safe practices and other actions aimed at preventing lead poisoning. Under the rule, beginning in April 22,2010, contractors performing renovation, repair and painting projects that disturb lead-based paint in homes, child care facilities, and schools built before 1978 must be certified and must follow specific work practices to prevent lead contamination.
Until that time, EPA recommends that anyone performing renovation, repair, and painting projects that disturb lead-based paint in pre-1978 homes, child care facilities and schools follow lead-safe work practices.
The rule will affect paid renovators who work in pre-1978 housing and child-occupied facilities, including:
Under the rule, child-occupied facilities are defined as residential, public or commercial buildings where children under age six are present on a regular basis. The requirements apply to renovation, repair or painting activities. The rule does not apply to minor maintenance or repair activities where less than six square feet of lead-based paint is disturbed in a room or where less then 20 square feet of lead-based paint is disturbed on the exterior. Window replacement is not minor maintenance or repair.

Life is filled with many twists and turns and I've experienced a number of them. I draw comfort from the three major tenets by which I live my life. I hope that you draw comfort from them as well:
1. People are doing the best that they can. This is probably the most difficult one to explain, so I don't explain it. If you understand the concept of empathy or the "glass house" analogy, then you should understand my thinking.
2. Life is short and life is great. I can't even recall the last time I said that I didn't have time for something. Hmm.. Stop and make time to do what you like to do. Make time to write it down at least.
3. If you love someone, then tell him/her the truth. Honesty is beautiful. When you are honest, you show who you are and you are beautiful just like honesty. You want your words to match your inner and outer beauty.
Okay? Yes; #ihavefaithalldaylong that you are okay. And, if you're not, then please tell someone. You're just that important.
Abundant Blessings,

Five Things To Be Prepared For As Your Denture Pickup Date Approaches
If you are about to go pick up your new dentures, you are probably filled with a mixture of emotions. You may be excited about finally having replacement teeth that enable you to eat normally again, but a little apprehensive about the adjustments you'll need to make in your lifestyle over the coming weeks. You'll have an easier time adjusting to your dentures if you know what to expect. Here are five challenges you may face as you adjust to dentures -- and some advice for dealing with them.
Challenge #1: Speaking with dentures.
Speaking with dentures can take a little time to get used to. You will feel the dentures when you place your tongue against your teeth or the roof of your mouth to make certain sounds, such as "th" and "s." Sometimes, people who just got dentures feel like they are speaking with a lisp or speech impediment. However, your speech will eventually improve to the point that you sound completely normal and natural.
Prepare for this challenge by not scheduling any important meetings or events for the first week or two after you pick up your dentures. Use this time to practice saying words you struggle with; you will soon improve.
Challenge #2: Chewing with dentures.
One of the primary reasons to get dentures is so that you can chew food normally, but chewing is a little difficult at first. You will have to get used to the different sensation of chewing with dentures and figure out where to best place the bite of food in your mouth. To combat this challenge, start by eating only soft foods, like soft-boiled pasta, fish, and cheese. Over a week or two, slowly add chewier foods like chicken, tender beef, bread, and vegetables.
Challenge #3: Remembering to take out and clean your dentures.
Are you worried that you'll accidentally go to bed and fall asleep with dentures in your mouth? You would not be the first one! You should really take your dentures out each night before you sleep, thoroughly cleaning them and placing them in storage solutions. To help you remember to do this, set an alarm in your phone for 20 or 30 minutes before bedtime. If you eat dinner late and go to bed soon after, you may even want to get into the habit of removing your dentures post-dinner.
Setting your denture case right on your bed stand can also help jog your memory. You'll see it as you climb into bed and be prompted to take out your dentures if you have not yet done so.
Challenge #4: Answering questions from friends or acquaintances.
In the first few weeks after you get your dentures, you will have friends and acquaintances say to you, "something about you looks different" or "did you do something to change your appearance?" This may catch you off guard. So, prepare an answer now so you are equipped to give people a good response. Some people prefer to be honest and just respond "Yes, I got dentures!" Others just change the subject and may say something like, "No, nothing major has changed."
Challenge #5: Dealing with fit issues.
If your dentures fit properly, they should not move around as you chew and speak. Be prepared, however, for them to wiggle a little when you first get them. This happens as your gums first swells and then shrink as they adapt to your dentures. It is an indication that you need to go back to the dentist and have the dentures adjusted slightly for a better fit. Some people do not suffer this problem at all, but many do -- so don't be alarmed.

ParaGard and Pregnancy
As a pregnancy Category X device, ParaGard (the copper IUD) can cause serious complications and should not be used during pregnancy. This device can increase the risk for miscarriages, birth defects, premature birth, and serious infections. To avoid these complications, women who are using this product should let their healthcare provider know immediately if they think they might be pregnant.
Can Pregnant Women Use ParaGard?ParaGard® (the copper IUD) is an intrauterine device (IUD) used to prevent pregnancy. It is a small device that contains copper. It is inserted into the uterus and left in place for several years. Although this product is usually quite effective at preventing pregnancy, rare pregnancies may occur. ParaGard can cause problems in these pregnancies.
What Is Pregnancy Category X?The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) uses a category system to classify the possible risks to a fetus when a specific medicine is used during pregnancy. Pregnancy Category X is given to medications that should not be used during pregnancy. This is usually because these drugs can cause problems like miscarriages or birth defects.
Although the prescribing information for ParaGard does not specifically mention a pregnancy category (as is common among older products like ParaGard), it is considered a pregnancy Category X device.
ParaGard and Ectopic PregnancyAn ectopic pregnancy is a pregnancy that occurs outside of the uterus, including a "tubal" pregnancy. Although pregnancy is rare in women who use ParaGard, women who do become pregnant while using this device have a higher risk for an ectopic pregnancy. These pregnancies cannot survive, often require surgery, and can result in permanent damage that can lead to infertility.
Be watchful for any signs of an ectopic pregnancy, such as severe abdominal (stomach) pain and unusual vaginal bleeding. ParaGard might not be a good choice for you if you have ever had an ectopic pregnancy or if your healthcare provider believes that you are at risk for an ectopic pregnancy.
Because of the high risk of ectopic pregnancy (and because waiting to take care of an ectopic pregnancy can be very dangerous), let your healthcare provider know immediately if you become pregnant, or even suspect that you may be pregnant, while using ParaGard.

During handling, the rings and roller complement of spherical roller bearings may be axially displaced from their normal position. This is especially likely where the bearings are mounted with the shaft or housing in the vertical position:
- The roller complement, together with the inner or outer ring, will move downward and result in no more clearance.
- When the bearing rings expand or contract as a result of an interference fit, preload is likely to result.
Therefore, wherever possible:
- Mount spherical roller bearings with the shaft or housing in the horizontal position.
Rotate the inner or outer ring to align the rollers during mounting.
Where this is not feasible, use a bearing handling tool or other device to keep the bearing components arranged centrally.
Mounting sealed bearings
SKF does not recommend heating sealed spherical roller bearings above 80 °C (175 °F) during the mounting process. However, if higher temperatures are necessary, make sure that the temperature does not exceed the permissible temperature of either the seal or grease, whichever is the lowest.
Mounting bearings with a tapered bore
Bearings with a tapered bore are mounted with an interference fit. To obtain the proper degree of interference, one of the following methods can be used:
- Measuring the clearance reduction (table 1)
- Measuring the lock nut tightening angle (table 1)
Measuring the axial drive-up (table 1)
Applying the SKF Drive-up Method (→ SKF Drive-up Method Program)
For bearings with d > 100 mm, SKF recommends using the SKF Drive-up Method. This is a fast, reliable and safe method to achieve the appropriate interference fit.
- Measuring the inner ring expansion (→ SensorMount)
For additional information about these mounting methods, refer to Mounting bearings with a tapered bore, or the SKF bearing maintenance handbook.

Chat with Mark Schlabach
Welcome to SportsNation! On Tuesday, college football writer Mark Schlabach stops by to chat as the SEC wraps up its spring season.
Schlabach joined ESPN.com in July 2006 as a college football and basketball columnist. A graduate of the University of Georgia, Mark spent nine years at the Atlanta Journal-Constitution covering Georgia and the SEC, as well as the NFL and NASCAR. Before joining ESPN, Schlabach spent two years at the Washington Post covering college football and basketball, and boxing.

Mark Schlabach (4:01 PM)
OK, here we go. Thanks for joining the chat today. Chris Low is en route to the beach, so I'm filling in today.
Taylor (Birmingham)
Mark, big fan...Your thoughts on the situation with Bama and their scheduling issue. Rumors of moving Ga. State to a Thursday Night...
Mark Schlabach (4:01 PM)
Doesn't seem right that so many of Bama's SEC opponents have off-weeks before playing the Tide. Traditionally, an open date has been a pretty big advantage. Doesn't matter if Tide plays Panthers on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, etc. Georgia State is going to get rolled.
Frank (Dallas)
How do you think that the Arkansas Razorbacks will perform next season?
Mark Schlabach (4:03 PM)
If the defense steps up, Arkansas can be one of the more improved teams in the country. You know what you're going to get with Mallett and the receivers. Have to stop the other team, though. I thought they were one of the more improved teams in the country last year, even though the record didn't necessarily show it, but they were very close to winning a few more games. Definitely headed in the right direction under Petrino
Will (Metairie, LA)
What is your take on LSU's QB situation. Is Les Miles just trying to push Jefferson or is Lee an actual threat to start?
Mark Schlabach (4:04 PM)
Everyone I talked to in Baton Rouge says Lee out-played Jefferson the entire spring. Not sure what's going on with Jefferson. I thought they asked him to do too much last year, with all the various formations, "Wildcat," option, etc. Stick to one thing and ask him to do it well. LSU offense needs to find an identity.
Clayton (Destin, Florida)
Hey what do you think will happen of the 2010 Florida vs Alabama football rematch in T town?
Mark Schlabach (4:04 PM)
Would have to go with the Tide at this point, but let's see how the early season plays out. I think Brantley is going to be fine, but both teams are replacing some studs on defense.
Will (Metairie, LA)
What is your early take on LSU-UNC at the GA Dome to start the season? UNC has a NFL talent-laden defense, but LSU's is pretty solid too with Kelvin Shepard and Pat Peterson. Low scoring slug fest?
Mark Schlabach (4:05 PM)
Definitely a low-scoring slugfest. LSU needs to find some consistency on offense, and Tar Heels need to protect T.J. Yates and run the ball better. UNC defense is going to be very, very good.
Mike (Nashville, TN)
Ok - Alabama is the clear favorite in the west but, if they were to stumble, how would you rate Auburn's chances of winning the SEC West?
Mark Schlabach (4:06 PM)
Right now, I'd put Auburn fourth behind Bama, LSU and Arkansas. Probably about even with Hogs, but I want to see Cam Newton in action before making a real opinion on Tigers. They've recruited well and they're going to get better. But I'm not jumping on the bandwagon just yet.
Gus (Malzhan)
Arkansas has a good qb, but their defense is almost sissy-like. Why the high ranking?
Mark Schlabach (4:08 PM)
Offense, offense, offense. QB and wide receivers and RBs. Came close to beating Florida, Georgia and LSU last season. Defense was getting better.
Mike (Nashville, TN)
How do you think Cam Newton will do leading Auburn this year?
Mark Schlabach (4:09 PM)
I think he'll eventually be fine. I know Florida was optimistic about him when he was there, but let's see how he does against SEC competition. He is really, really tall and has a big frame. Throws the ball pretty well.
Edward (Oviedo, Fl)
Florida has very little depth at quarterback beyond John Brantley. I am wondering where is all this talent that Meyer has supposedly stacked up. The only viable option after Brantley is Jordan Reed who is nowhere near gametime status. Should Florida fans be worried?
Mark Schlabach (4:10 PM)
Gators fans should be worried if Brantley gets hurt. Georgia fans should be worried if Aaron Murray gets hurt. Same can be said for a few other SEC schools. Not a lot of QB depth in Gainesville.
Big Al (Nashville)
Is there a conspiracy against the Tide? It seems that they were crushed by the NCAA for the Means (justifiably) only to watch USC go unscathed for years - that may change now. Now they get a schedule where everyone get's an extra week off before they play them. When will the madness stop? I still think the Tide will win it all, but may lose one along the way.
Mark Schlabach (4:12 PM)
At least they're getting the sideline calls on interceptions, right?
Nick (Atlanta)
Any chance UGA can win the SEC this year with Murray?
Mark Schlabach (4:13 PM)
Defense would have to really be improved. I think as long as they get something out of Murray, they could win nine or 10 games. Experienced OL. Best WR in the SEC. Two great TEs. Best kicker and punter in the league. Big ? mark is defense. Can they get pressure on the QB? Vance Cuff gives them optimism in the secondary.
Brian (Richmond, Ky.)
Kentucky's better than 11th in the SEC, right? Newton's a year older and more prepared at QB if Hartline doesn't keep the job, the receiving corps is better and the defense is young but talented. Do I have any hope of a fifth bowl game this year?
Mark Schlabach (4:16 PM)
I think a bowl game is a definite possibility. I don't think the 'Cats slip much under Joker Phillips. Two big weapons on offense, and Randall Cobb is one of the most underrated players in the country.
Shane` (Trenton GA)
What is the chance that BAMA can reapeat
Mark Schlabach (4:17 PM)
I've got the Tide No. 1 going into the season. Lose some big guns on defense, but Hightower and Dareus are sitting there waiting to take over. Ingram and Richardson are as good as anyone, and Jones should be better since he's healthy this season.
Chris (Montgomery, Al)
What are the odds that the SEC knocks themselves out of the BCS championship by having a conference loss this year? Or win another with a one loss team?
Mark Schlabach (4:17 PM)
I would think a one-loss team would still have a chance, like Florida did in 2008.
Matt (Philadelphia)
What is C-Low doing today that required a sub? I see he's on Finebaum in a couple hours.
Mark Schlabach (4:18 PM)
Headed to the beach for a much-deserved vacation.
Matt (Philadelphia)
What's your pick for the biggest SEC game this season not involving Florida or Alabama?
Mark Schlabach (4:19 PM)
Georgia at South Carolina Week 2 because it sets up momentum for winner early in the season, and LSU at Auburn on Oct. 23. Winner challenges Bama?
Will (Metairie, LA)
What are your thoughts on SEC expansion? I am against it, but if we have to, maybe: FSU & GT in the West and Clemson
Mark Schlabach (4:19 PM)
I'd be surprised if SEC expands, but FSU and Georgia Tech and Clemson would seem like logical choices.
Tim (Chattanooga, TN)
Does UT's record of most games won against a FBS school (Kentucky) come to an end this year?
Mark Schlabach (4:20 PM)
Very well could come to an end. I think the Vols are really going to struggle. It's going to take Derek Dooley a year or two to restock the roster after all the attrition.
Terry (the 'Burgh)
I can certainly understand a league like the Big-10(11) or Pac-10 adding up to the minimum 12th team needed for a league CFB champs game. Beyond that, isn't bigger just bigger for bigger's sake, and certainly not better?
Mark Schlabach (4:21 PM)
It doesn't always work out like you anticipate. The ACC expected Miami and FSU to be playing for ACC title and BCS bowls every year. Hasn't happened yet.
Shaz (Tulsa, OK)
So what do u think about expanding the SEC to 16 teams. Picking up Florida State, Clemson, Texas and GT. Divide them up to 4 Different conferences SEC north: SC, Clemson, Tenn. Vanderbilt. SEC South: Florida, FS, Arkansas, Georgia. SEC East: Kentucky, Georgia Tech, Auburn, Alabama. Finally SEC West: LSU, OLEMISS, Texas, Miss. ST. And the championship game be in final four style format. Lets say LSU out of the West vs Florida Out of the SouthBama out of the East Vs. SC out of the NorthAnd then a SEC championship game to Cap it off.You think there could ever be a possibility of this format coming into play in the SEC?
Mark Schlabach (4:21 PM)
You're not going to see four-team divisions.
Derrick (Athens,Ga)
How do you see the new 3-4 defense working for UGA, and can A.J. Green compete for a Heisman?
Mark Schlabach (4:22 PM)
I think the 3-4 will be more aggressive, but Dogs still need more pass rushers and interior tackles. I think the scheme can potentially mask some of their deficiencies up front, but secondary is going to have to be good.
Terry (the 'Burgh)
Saw the impromptu comments by UConn's Randy Edsall, thanks to the link on ESPN's Big East Blog: give ND a long-overdue ultimatum to join in CFB, which they'll reject. In turn, league boots ND in hoops (a sport for which they MUST be in somebody?s league...), ND joins Big Ten, who in turn stays with a pat hand at "only" twelve members, thus preserving the Big East, Big XII and ACC more or less intact, thus to avoid a nationwide melt-down in CFB. It's brilliant, simple, and might even work! Everybody wins (even the BEast): cuts off the diseased foot (= ND) to save the rest of the body. You like (too)?
Mark Schlabach (4:22 PM)
I don't think N.D. is going to be strong-armed into joining a league.
Parker (Orlando, FL)
Do you think that the SEC will expand and who might be included?
Mark Schlabach (4:23 PM)
I'd be surprised, but I guess it depends on what happens with other leagues. SEC seems to be more healthy -- competitively and financially -- than any other league.
Ed (Oxford, MS)
Any chance Houston Nutt surprises everyone and Ole Miss has another eight or nine win season?
Mark Schlabach (4:24 PM)
I think Rebs take a step back this season, but Nutt's teams tend to do well when not much is expected of them. We'll see what happens in Oxford.
Ryan (New York)
Bama lost a lot of key players on defense, namely Rolando. Who do you think will take charge and be the "mini-Saban" on the field?
Mark Schlabach (4:24 PM)
Guy by the name of Dont'a Hightower. I hear he's pretty good (maybe better than McClain).
Jax (somewhere)
who will be better down the stretch for the tigers at rb: onterio or michael
Mark Schlabach (4:26 PM)
McCalebb really seemed to hit a wall late last season with some nagging injuries. I think they'll both get a lot of touches, but if Dyer is as good as advertised, he might end up being the guy.
Brian (Birmingham)
So by ranking Boise 2nd behind Bama, do you really think that Boise is that good, or do you think they are just the beneficiary of an easy schedule that could land them undefeated at the end of the year? If you think they are that good, what record would you have them with if they played Bama or TOSU's schedule? Because it seems to me, if you don't have them undefeated or with just 1 loss, then they do not deserve to be ranked 2nd.
Mark Schlabach (4:27 PM)
Boise has 21 of 22 starters coming back. Kellen Moore is a legit Heisman Trophy candidate. They beat a very good TCU team in the Fiesta Bowl. I think Boise is legit. If they beat Virginia Tech and Oregon State and run the table in the WAC and other non-league games, they probably deserve a shot. No one game Utah a shot two years ago, remember?
Larry (Glendale, CA)
Why is there NO bowl games featuring a Pac-10 vs. SEC match-up?
Mark Schlabach (4:28 PM)
Geographical differences, I guess. The ACC-Pac-10 matchup in San Francisco didn't seem to work. Too far for the ACC team to travel.
Jeremy (Athens, GA)
Ok, So what is going on in TN? They keep losing players like crazy. Is it just the change in Coaching regime or is it something to do with Dooley? As much as I can't stand to see TN win i really do hope dooley is successful! Do you think he can be there? Thanks!!!
Mark Schlabach (4:28 PM)
I think Dooley will be fine. New sheriff in town. Establishing ground rules early. Laying down the law.
brett (louisville) [via mobile]
I have heard that kentucky is interested in joining the big east? is there any truth to this? thanks
Mark Schlabach (4:29 PM)
Haven't heard it and don't believe it. Why leave the SEC, where you dominate in hoops (the sport that really matters in the Bluegrass) and join the Big East, where there are five or six legit programs?
Howard (Montgomery)
Will there be a playoff in our lifetime?
Mark Schlabach (4:30 PM)
I would have said no way two years ago, now I'm starting to wonder if it will happen. Bigger conferences and fewer conferences makes it easier.
Bryan (Auburn)
About the Bama scheduling situation. As an Auburn fan why doesn't Auburn change LA Monroe or Chattanooga to break up the season better? We still have depth issues and in my opinion pure exhaustion is what made us lose games against Georgia and Alabama last year.
Mark Schlabach (4:30 PM)
It's called lack of depth....Recruiting fixes the problem and if Chizik keeps recruiting well, the Tigers will have depth.
Jeremy (Athens, GA)
Do you think AJ Green will stick around after this season or will he bolt for the NFL? I just really believe 2011 will be the year UGA has a real shot to compete for a NC. Without Green though that changes completely. Thanks!
Mark Schlabach (4:31 PM)
He's projected as a top-five pick, so I think it would be hard to pass up the money. He's a pretty humble kid, so he might stick around, but I'd be surprised if he's there for his senior season.
Jeff (Baton Rouge)
How are my Gamecocks gonna do this year? Can they compete for the EAST?
Mark Schlabach (4:32 PM)
If Garcia plays better, the Gamecocks have a chance to be better. Very good on defense. Offensive line has to be better. If Lattimore is the real deal, he'll take pressure off Garcia.
JM (Orlando)
Most polls have UF and UGA ranked above SC in the east. Is SC's "best shot" in years to head to the SEC championship game a real chance or just a chance to fail better?
Mark Schlabach (4:32 PM)
We've been hearing about SC's "best shot" for the last four years. This might be the year, finally, but Garcia has to be consistent.
Sean (NO-TOWN)
Everyone has Bama #1 and deservedly so. But they lost a ton on defense much like UF's NC team from 06'. If they can just plug new personnel in then whats to say UF can't do the same and be just as scary as Bama.
Mark Schlabach (4:33 PM)
Florida is replacing Tebow and Hernandez and still doesn't have a proven every-down back. Hightower and Darius are going to plug holes on defense. Everything coming back on offense for Bama, except a couple of lineman. Florida isn't going to fall off the map, but they have bigger pieces to replace, in my opinion.
joseph (sarasota)
i think the two powerhouse in the sec are florida and alabama. Yet, i would give the edge to alabama in the match up on oct 2. But, if they meet again for the sec championship, i will have to give the edge to florida by then. I believe florida will get their act together by then and urban will be prepared the second time around. just my thoughts. i see florida improving this year and next. your thoughts?
Mark Schlabach (4:34 PM)
Lots of great talent, but the Gators are going to be very young. Brantley is going to be fine. UF is going to be a tough out in 2011 and 2012. Not sure if they're the team to beat this year, though.
Mike (Nashville, TN)
Which freshman RB will have the greatest impact next year - Dyer at AU or Lattimore at SC?
Mark Schlabach (4:34 PM)
I think both freshmen will have significant impacts. Lattimore might be asked to do more at South Carolina.
Andrew (Arkansas)
Who are your favorite heisman contenders in the SEC going into the season? And with a favorable schedule, could the hogs make a BCS run?
Mark Schlabach (4:35 PM)
Mallett and Mark Ingram would be top two choices. Hogs can make a run at an SEC West title with a better defense.
Bryan (Sewanee, TN)
There hasn't been much talk about Alabama's offensive line during the Spring. They weren't dominant with pass protection during the A-Day Game, but they were also missing their starting center. How do you think D.J. Fluker will mature into the right tackle position?
Mark Schlabach (4:36 PM)
He's big with really long arms and good feet. Not worried about Bama's OL. Played remarkably well last year after replacing two All-Americans.
Sean (NO-TOWN)
I'm with you on that Mark, but even though Saban is a defensive guru and a secondary coach at heart. That secondary better show drastic improvements over the course of the next 5 months or all of Florida's weapons in the passing game could outshine their running game.
Mark Schlabach (4:37 PM)
Two good coaches coaching up the Bama secondary. Have to replace three really good players back there, but Tide has recruited well. Plus, Bama gets pressure on the QB better than almost anyone.
Matt (Philadelphia)
Do you foresee Muschamp bolting for one of the big SEC jobs that could open in the near future which he has ties to (UGA, LSU) or waiting it out in Austin for Mack to retire?
Mark Schlabach (4:37 PM)
He's about to inherit the best job in the country in terms of recruiting base, financial resources, tradition, etc. I don't see him going anywhere.
JT (Birmingham)
What are the chances Les Miles is around next year? Another non-BCS type year may sen him packing.. True or False?
Mark Schlabach (4:38 PM)
I think there's some pressure on him, but I think it would take a disaster for him to be fired. Could he leave for Michigan if Rich Rod leaves or gets fired? Possibly.
Will (Metairie, LA)
Same question about Pat Peterson leaving after this season? Would he come back knowing LSU is set up well for 2011 to make a serious run at conference title.
Mark Schlabach (4:39 PM)
Again, a guy that is a projected top-five to top-10 pick. A lot of $$$ to pass up.
kevin (atlanta)
From what you have seen of John Brantley, do you think he could possibly a top QB in the nation?
Mark Schlabach (4:39 PM)
He has the arm and size and smarts. Different QB than Tebow. UF has to find a running game to protect him and the young WRs have to step up.
Chris (Hawaii)
I am assuming that the blame for UT's lack of talent is attributable to Kiffin, but is this because of turning-tail, or bad recruitling before that? How much blame lies at Fulmer's feet? Thanks,
Mark Schlabach (4:40 PM)
I think it was a couple of years of poor recruiting, so I don't think you can blame Kiffin entirely. Fulmer didn't recruit very well at the end, truth be told.
Jeremy (Athens, GA)
What coach in the SEC do you think is in the most trouble if they have a rough yr? Miles, Richt, or someone else?
Mark Schlabach (4:41 PM)
I don't think Richt is going to be fired anytime soon. Miles is catching heat, but are you going to fire a guy who won a national championship for only winning eight or nine games? Doubtful.
Brandon (Montgomery, AL)
What is the one game Bama can afford to lose and still make it to the National Championship game?
Mark Schlabach (4:42 PM)
Lose to Florida during regular season and then come back and beat the Gators in the SEC title game?
James (Houston, TX)
Do you think UK will take a step back? They should have better overall talent this year than last, but I'm worried Joker may be a significant step down from Rich Brooks as the head man.
Mark Schlabach (4:42 PM)
I think Joker is going to be fine. Paid his dues and learned under Rich Brooks.
Nick (Charlotte)
Caught a squirrel today with my bare hands. What does this mean for Auburn?
Mark Schlabach (4:43 PM)
You can recover onside kicks? Might make the hands team.
Mark Schlabach (4:43 PM)
OK, folks, I'm outta here. Enjoy the offseason. It lasts about another week in the SEC. Thanks for stopping by.

About Us
Our History
The DRC story began on a spring day in 1997, when bestselling author and former newspaper reporter Jeff Guinn stepped from a downtown bus station to spend a week living on the streets of Fort Worth.
His harrowing, first-hand account of street life was published on June 8, 1997 and revealed heartbreaking gaps in help for the homeless.
Guinn's story opened eyes to the human cost of homelessness, and civic leaders responded, opening the DRC as Day Resource Center for the Homeless in 1999.
Our Future
Day Resource Center for the Homeless is now the DRC.
Our mission is to provide respectful, responsible and effective community-based solutions to help individuals and families emerge from homelessness as productive, healthy people.
We believe this mission will take us beyond a single site to deliver community-based solutions to homelessness where and when they are needed.
In all it does, the DRC is committed to being pragmatic in practice and aspirational in outlook. In collaboration with our sister social service agencies and faith-based communities, DRC solutions work to meet ever-increasing needs compassionately, creatively, efficiently and cost-effectively.
Each new day brings new struggles for many of our neighbors.
These are people facing or experiencing homelessness.
Today the DRC is reaching out to meet them with a new community-based, scalable model. We're taking our programs and professionals to places where people in need still search for answers.
DRC's expansion will encourage and energize collaborative, customized community efforts in co-located facilities, reaching both those in need and the broad spectrum of individuals, businesses, health care providers, schools, families, faith-based organizations and partner agencies touched by homelessness.

Governing Body Structure
Church school governing bodies vary in size, but the general composition does not vary much from school to school. Regulations govern the size and constitution of governing bodies and each school has an Instrument of Government which details the constitution.
A typical voluntary aided primary school governing body in the Diocese comprises the following:
|Foundation Governors
|Non-Foundation Governors
|Parochial Church Council x 4
|Parent Governors x 2
|Diocesan Foundation Governors x 2
|Staff Governor x 1
|Incumbent x 1
|Headteacher x 1
|Local Authority Governor x 1
|Total - 7
|Total - 5
Voluntary aided secondary schools usually (but not always) have a larger governing body with wider representation from the church.
|Foundation Governors
|Non-Foundation Governors
|Parochial Church Council x 2
|Parent Governors x 3
|Diocesan Foundation Governors x 2
|Staff Governor x 1
|Incumbent x 1
|Headteacher x 1
|Deanery Governor x 2
|Local Authority Governor x 1
|Other Foundation Body x 2
|Co-opted Governor x 1
|Total - 9
|Total - 7
Governing bodies may choose to vary their instrument of government, but must consult the Diocesan Board, trustees and foundation governors before sending their proposal to the local authority.
In 2012, new regulations provided for a slightly different model which includes co-opted governors. Any school wishing to vary their instrument of government must follow the new regulations.
The SDBE provides guidance for its schools on effective working practices for governing bodies. Model terms of reference for committees can be downloaded from the Members' Area.
Governors should decide what type of committee structure works best for them and are required to review the committees each year. The more usual model for most governing bodies is to have committees for personnel, finance, premises, curriculum, admissions and pupil discipline. This can be difficult for a small governing body to maintain, an option to reduce the number of committees by combining responsibilities has been tried and tested by several governing bodies. In determining the committee structure, governors should be aware of the work-life balance of the headteacher, both in terms of the number of meetings and the time they are held.
Foundation Governors
Foundation governors have a special responsibility for securing that the character of the school as a Church of England voluntary school is preserved and developed and that the school is conducted in accordance with the provisions of the school's Trust Deed and its ethos statement. The Trust Deed is a document which relates to the original foundation of the school, the ethos statement has statutory force and it is within this context that governors of Church of England schools carry out their responsibilities.
Ethos Statement
A copy of the ethos statement adopted by the majority of Church of England schools is reproduced below.
- Recognising its historic foundation, the school will preserve and develop its religious character in accordance with the principles of the Church of England and in partnership with the Church at parish and Diocesan level.
- The school aims to serve its community by providing an education of the highest quality within the context of Christian belief and practice. It encourages an understanding of the meaning and significance of faith and promotes Christian values through the experience it offers to all its pupils.
A more detailed summary of the foundation governor's role in a C of E School is given in the Board's Factsheet:
Governors' Code of Conduct
Governors accept far-reaching responsibilities and it is important to recognise that governors operate as part of a team. Many governing bodies choose to adopt a Code of Conduct so that there is clear agreement how governors should conduct themselves:
Ideally a school's complaints procedure will be used rarely, but there are occasions when informal approaches have been exhausted and parents seek to place their concerns on record. Schools are required to have a complaints procedure in place and should ensure that governors agree the procedure and make parents aware of it. Our full guidance booklet can be downloaded from the Members' Area.

WITH house prices on the rise again as demand outstrips supply in prime locations, budding buyers are struggling to get on or up the property market.
New research carried out by the Economic and Social Research Institute found that while more consumers think it's a good time to buy – and sell – they are still a little cautious and have money worries.
The proportion of those questioned who expect house prices to continue rising rose to almost 45pc in the first three months of this year, up from 42.1pc at the end of 2013.
Dublin-based residents think house prices will jump by an average 4.3pc in the 12 months, compared to a 1.5pc increase in the rest of the country.
"This report shows strong demand with two out of three people surveyed saying it's a good time to buy," said Jim O'Keeffe, head of mortgages at AIB.
"From a banking perspective, 62pc of people are worried about future income and affordability, which shows the key role we have in supporting customers to get a mortgage that they can afford and meets their needs.
"The challenge for us all is the current lack of new housing stock in key locations to meet this demand. If this demand is realised it would get us to a normal 3pc or 4pc of total housing stock being transacted."
The index – which measures perceptions in relation to the Irish housing market and house price expectations – found the majority of potential homebuyers – 66pc – believe it is a good time to buy.
The numbers who equally think it's a good time to sell rose steadily to 9.4pc in the first three months of the year, from 6.5pc at the end of last year.
When quizzed about the risks associated with buying a home, the quantity that cited worries about future income and affordability rose to 61.2pc, up from 58.4pc. Other concerns included interest rates (15pc), changes in family circumstances (14.5pc) and house prices (7.4pc).
Just 5.5pc revealed they were not in the market for a new home because they could not get a mortgage. Another 5.5pc said it was because of income or job security, more than 11pc cited affordability concerns, and almost seven out of 10 said they were not considering buying a new house as they are satisfied where they live.
Overall, the index shows consumers were slightly more cautious about the market this year. It started in September 2013 on a baseline of 100, and rose steadily towards the end of the year averaging at 104.4. Despite peaking to 105 in February, the three-month average weakened to 103.1 by the end of March.

Argentina and "The Macri Factor" on mining stocks
So I got to thinking about all this hype on Argentina being newly business friendly and welcoming and the new wonderful and after a bit, it occurred to me to put together an unscientific comparative chart of a few mining tickers against Yamana Gold (AUY) (YRI.to), what with that one having the most direct exposure to Argentina of its production mix (Gualcamayo, Alumbrera etc) as well as development projects (Cerro Moro, Suyai). And here's what came out:
Seems to be more hot air than substance. By the way, the one Tier 1 I left out was Goldcorp because it has its own significant exposure to Argentina and (but?) its own unconnected travails right now. That one is about 20% down, just less than AUY.

What a Singing There Will Be is Helen Schneyer's final album prior to her passing on July 16, 2005. This recording was made on November 9, 2003, at a live concert in Calais, Vermont. The audience was all musicians. Helen said of this event," making a recording at a concert instead of in a studio was like a family gathering (except that there was no food throwing). I owe the opportunity most of all to Gordon Bok, who will probably try to deny that he bullied me into it, but it would never have happened were it not for Gordon's generosity."
"Helen Schneyer's contralto voice was a force that grabbed you by the collar and sang directly into your soul," as described by Mary Cliff. Mary 's remembrance of Helen can be found in the Fall 2005 issue of Sing Out! magazine.

To be issued a visa and enter the United States, a foreign national must generally not be ineligible for admission (also known as "inadmissible"). Even after a foreign national has been determined to be ineligible, it may be possible to apply for a waiver (akin to a pardon). The requirements for a waiver depend on the type of ineligibility. Common requirements for waivers include one or more of the following:
- The applicant has a "qualifying relative"
- That relative would suffer extreme hardship if the applicant were denied the visa
- The applicant deserves the waiver as a matter of discretion
Common ineligibilities and corresponding waivers can be divided into the following categories :
|Medical-related grounds
|Crime-related grounds
|Security-related grounds covering Communist Party members seeking immigrant visas
Prior J-1 exchange visitors subject to the two-year foreign residence requirement
|Illegal immigrants and immigration law violators, including fraud or misrepresentation
|214(i) waivers for fraud or misrepresentation
|Persons previously removed or unlawfully present in the U.S.
|I-212 permission to reapply after removal; Waivers of the 3- and 10-year unlawful presence bars
|Prior J-1 exchange visitors subject to the two-year foreign residence requirement
|No objection, hardship, and persecution waivers
In addition, a 212(d)(3) waiver will waive most ineligibilities in connection with an application for a temporary visa.
For more, read about the grounds of inadmissibility and your options after a consular officer denies your visa application.

SALEM, Mass. - Senior captain Elena Gualtieri (Rome, N.Y.) found the back of the net twice in the third period as the Connecticut College women's ice hockey team rallied to post a 2-1 victory over Salem State on Tuesday evening at Rockett Arena.
Gualtieri, who scored both of her goals less than two minutes apart, tied the game just 17 seconds into the final frame by collecting a loose puck and firing it past Viking goalie Isabelle Woodward. Just 1:42 later, the captain struck again on a give-and-go play that was started between junior Kylie Wilkes (Howell, N.J.) and sophomore Erin Dillon (Hazlet, N.J.). Dillon cycled the puck to Wilkes behind the net, received it back, and then slipped the puck to Gualtieri in the slot. The senior forward then put the Camels ahead by beating Woodward with a shot to the top shelf of the net on the goalie's glove side.
Despite being outshot by a 9-3 margin in the opening period, Salem State (5-8-1) struck first in the frame's waning minutes when Casie Curtin slipped a shot that made its way underneath the pad of Camel netminder Carly Denora (Verona, N.J.). The Camels, however, continued to pressure Woodward by outshooting the hosts, 14-3, in the second period and eventually breaking through in the third.
Venora only had to make six saves between the posts to pick up the victory for Connecticut College, which had a lopsided 35-7 advantage in total shots. Woodward of Salem State finished with 33 stops in the losing effort.
Connecticut College (5-4-2) will next visit Wesleyan for a two-game series over the weekend.
