Teaching With Scholastic Discover More
Scholastic Discover More is a groundbreaking, highly visual and immersive new nonfiction series that offers today's kids compelling entry points to learning. With its multifaceted ways of learning, it offers many rich and varied tools to teach the Common Core State Standards, helping make sure that your students are on the track to college and career readiness. All levels of the books contain grade-appropriate academic and domain-specific vocabulary as well as complex text that is both engaging and motivating.
Use the Scholastic Discover More books to teach students not only important informational facts, but also the skills necessary to gather meaning from expository text and to gain proficiency in foundational skills, writing, speaking and listening, language, history/social studies, and science and technical studies.
An Immersive Learning Experience
The Scholastic Discover More series submerges readers in new, fascinating worlds and motivates them to become lifelong readers.
- The fact-packed text and high-impact photographs will help students build knowledge networks and analyze complex text.
- For each book there is a free digital companion that extends learning by engaging students through games, videos, and additional vocabulary and informational text.
Text Features Appropriate for Each Stage of Learning
There are three levels of books—Emergent (PreK–Grade 1), Confident (Grades 2–4), and Expert (Grades 5–8)—as well as the Discover More Readers, which are short, leveled chapter books for various grades.
- The complexity of text and the difficulty of academic and domain-specific vocabulary increase through the levels.
- Text features help students easily see important information and understand the meaning of the text.
- All of the books contain a glossary and an index to help students locate information so they can begin to answer their own questions and monitor their reading.
- Information is not only presented through text, but through visual presentations like charts, time lines, flowcharts, graphs, and lists of stats, which help students understand advanced concepts and also introduce math skills.
Learning Through Technology
Every Scholastic Discover More book, at each level, has a digital companion to extend learning from the book to the computer. Each digital companion book has a Help Page, which shows the special features students can access. You can download a FREE sample digital companion book for each level by visiting scholastic.com/discovermore and entering the codes below.
- The digital companions for the Emergent Reader books reinforce important ideas through math and literacy games, build a network of knowledge through videos, introduce academic and domain-specific vocabulary, and provide opportunities for students to use computers for learning. Code: DISCMOREEMER
- The digital companions for the Confident Reader books continue to expand students' ability to read informational text through glossary entries, encyclopedia entries, complex graphs, time lines, stats, and more complex academic and domain-specific vocabulary. Videos provide real experiences to cement their knowledge network, and quizzes check their comprehension. Code: DISCMORECONF
- The digital companions for the Expert Reader books provide students the chance to become real experts in the topic by focusing on specific concepts. Students will learn from eyewitness accounts, videos, maps, photo galleries, and through additional academic and domain-specific vocabulary. Code: DISCMOREEXPT
- The digital companions for the Discover More Readers provide grade-appropriate activities for students that reinforce reading comprehension. Students will answer text-based questions, decode text across disciplines, learn by doing, and integrate information from multiple sources. Code: DISCMOREREAD
Reading: Foundational Skills
To help students become proficient readers, differentiate instruction to ensure all students in Grades K–5 learn print concepts, phonological awareness, phonics and word recognition, and fluency.
Emergent Reader Books: Practicing Phonological Skills
Use the words in the Scholastic Discover More books to play phonemic awareness games. Find practice words in the glossary, the text, and from the digital companion. For example, when reading Animal Babies, try these activities:
- Add a phoneme: egg = leg, beg, Meg
- Substitute a phoneme: fish = wish, dish
- Read a sentence using one word with a wrong phoneme and ask students to choose the correct phoneme. A chock slowly loses its fur. (chick)
Confident Reader Books: Reading Multisyllabic Words
Teach students to attack multisyllabic words instead of giving up on new and unfamiliar academic and domain-specific words. Stamp your feet to demonstrate the syllable breaks as you teach these six syllable types from Dinosaurs:
- Closed Syllables have a short vowel and end in a consonant. fos-sil
- Open Syllables have a long vowel sound and end in a vowel. tri-cer-a-tops
- Consonant + -le, -el, or -al Syllables end with the /ul/ sound. an-i-mal
- VCe (vowel-consonant-e) Syllables contain the vowel-consonant-e pattern, which usually means the vowel will have a long sound. cop-ro-lite
- Vowel Team Syllables contain two vowel letters that stand for one vowel sound. crea-tures
- r-controlled Vowel Syllables feature a vowel followed by the letter r, which can change the sound the vowel stands for. rap-tor
Expert Reader Books: Mastering Morphology
Teach students to look for common prefixes, suffixes, and Greek and Latin roots as they try to figure out the pronunciations and meanings of new words. As a review, copy a page from the Expert Reader book the students are reading and ask them to look for a particular morpheme (word part, unit of meaning). Ask students to read the text and underline that morpheme throughout the page. Then ask students to list the morphemes and the words in which they occur in the book and create a web. Discuss the meaning of the morpheme and how it changes the meaning of the word. Brainstorm other words that contain the same morpheme and add them to the web.
Discover More Readers: Cluing Into Context
Students need strategies to check if they are reading unfamiliar words correctly, to ensure they comprehend the text. When students come across a challenging word, guide them to:
- Reread the sentence, paragraph, or page.
- Use pictures to help figure out the meaning.
- Try to think of a word that would make sense in the sentence.
- Check to see if the definition is located on the page or in the glossary.
- Use a dictionary to check the meaning and pronunciation
Discover More Tip: Differentiate instruction by using words from the Discover More books to help small groups focus on high-frequency words, concepts of print, the alphabetic principle, and phonological awareness.
Discover Even More: Project pictures from the digital companion and ask students to raise their hand when they see a picture that contains the specific phoneme spoken.
Reading: Informational Text
Use the Scholastic Discover More books to teach students how to read complex informational text by teaching them about key details, craft and structure, and integrating knowledge and ideas.
Emergent Reader Books: Reading Pictures
Early readers will be transported to other places as they look at the photos in the Scholastic Discover More books, but they need help connecting the pictures to the words. Spend time explaining the relationship between words and the pictures of places, things, animals, or people they represent. Try modeling this example that's based on Farm.
Model: Let's open to pages 6 and 7 of Farm and look closely at the words and the pictures. What do you see on this page? Yes, right in the center is a big chicken. What do these other animals have in common with the chicken? Exactly, they are all birds. Now I'm going to read the words at the top of the page. I know they are important because they are very big. This is the heading. It says, "farm birds." Let's look on the bottom of page 7. I see smaller pictures of the birds, and they all have words next to them. What do you think those words say? That's right! They are the names of the animals. Let's look at the first one. I see the word begins with the letter d. I think that is a duck. It begins with the letter d, like duck, and ducks sometimes live on farms, so I think that word says, "duck." Let's check the next one out together.
Confident Reader Books: Finding Important Information
When you introduce Scholastic Discover More books to your students, allow them time to sit with a partner or small group and look through the books. Let them know that the group will be discussing the things they notice about the books. Once they have had enough time, draw a semantic web on chart paper and ask the students to help you fill it in. See sample at right.
As students name the text features, write them on the semantic map and then ask questions to help them understand the roles the features play in comprehension:
- How is the table of contents helpful?
- Why are there captions with the pictures?
- Why are some words bigger than others?
- What do headings tell you?
- How would this book be different if it had no pictures?
- Why are some pictures labeled?
- Why are graphs, time lines, and maps used?
- How is the glossary helpful?
- How would you use the index?
Expert Reader Books: Finding Cause and Effect
When reading informational text, students will not only learn facts but will begin to make connections between events and people. One connection students will frequently see in the Scholastic Discover More books is cause and effect. For example, when reading the book Disasters, guide students to find the cause and effects of each natural disaster. Help students to track cause and effect as they read with a chart.
|The cause of a tsunami is an earthquake below the seabed that shifts seafloor rocks and creates a huge ridge of water.
|The effect is fast-traveling waves that spread out, and as they approach land, slow down, grow taller, and devastate communities.
Discover More Readers: Unlocking the Main Topic and Key Details
Independent reading requires that students not only read the words, but also understand the words. Provide strategies to help monitor their reading, find the most important idea or main topic, and locate the key details. Ask students to cite the information in a chart. For example, after reading the chapter on Incredible Fish in Shark Attack!, students might fill out the chart like this:
Main Topic: Sharks are amazing fish!
|Key Details:
|The whale shark is as big as a T. rex.
|The dwarf laternshark has a belly that glows.
|The swell shark can drink water double its size to protect itself.
|The shortfin mako can leap twenty feet out of the water.
Discover More Tip: Teach the difference between narrative and informational text so students understand the purpose the author is conveying as soon as they start reading.
Discover Even More: Review the Help feature of the digital companion so students can investigate each clickable button independently.
History/Social Studies
Teach students in Grades 6–8 to use strategies for reading History/Social Studies texts, such as comparing sources.
Expert Reader Books: Analyzing Sources
The Scholastic Discover More books contain both primary and secondary sources. Explain to students that primary sources are materials produced by someone who was at the scene of the event. They include photos, paintings, videos, letters, speeches, poems, and eyewitness accounts.
Secondary sources contain information that has been analyzed by someone else or rewritten, like the information in most textbooks. Guide students to analyze the text and find the differences and similarities between primary and secondary sources.
Discover More Tip: Encourage students to use academic and domain-specific words in their writing.
Discover Even More: Access the Explore More page in the digital companion to World War II to find out more about the eyewitness accounts through websites and additional books.
Help students increase the sophistication of their writing by using different text types and purposes, creating and distributing their writing in various ways, and using research to build and present knowledge.
Emergent Reader Books: Stating Opinions
Guide students to use dictation, illustrations, or writing to compose a piece of opinion writing. Ask students to choose a topic, state an opinion, supply a reason, and provide closure at the end. As an example, try modeling your thought process to show them how it is done.
Model: We have read the book Puppies and Kittens. I have learned many fun and interesting facts about puppies and kittens. Now I'm going to think about all the information we read and decide which pet is my favorite! It was a hard decision, but I've decided that kittens are my favorite because I like the way they pounce and jump! Now think about all the information and decide which is your favorite. Write down your favorite, a fact from the book that convinced you it is your favorite, and a closing thought to end your piece. Try this sentence starter when you are ready to write: My favorite pet is ___________.
Confident Reader Books: Organizing Ideas
One challenge writers face is writing a piece and then deciding that they would like to write it another way. Guide students to edit a piece of writing they already worked on and try a new approach. Help students look at organization, additional text features, additional details, different points of view, pictures, and graphs. For example, if students write a piece about life in the Amazon after reading Rainforest, they may decide to write from the point of view of a child living in the Amazon or they may decide to break up their story using text features. Demonstrate your thought process on a shared piece of writing by asking these questions:
- Can I break it into smaller sections?
- Can I write headings that would grab the reader's attention?
- What else might a reader want to know about the topic?
- Is there a different point of view I can try that might make the topic more vivid and more exciting to the reader?
- Can I add pictures, maps, charts, or graphs to clarify my ideas?
Expert Reader Books: Analyzing Complex Text
The Scholastic Discover More books provide students the chance to use evidence to support analysis, reflection, and research. Guide students to write short research projects using self-generated questions. After choosing a topic, have students use text, time lines, vocabulary, maps, and eyewitness accounts to write their piece. Also, have them use the digital component to add to their wealth of knowledge.
Walk students through an example to help them learn how to use the table of contents and index to locate relevant information in the book and the digital companion. For example, a student might decide, after reading a section of World War II, that their question is, "How was life difficult for the children of the Blitzkrieg? How does that compare to the lives of other children during the war?" In addition to the book's factual information about the Blitz, they can also read the eyewitness account of a British artillery soldier. Then students can access the digital companion to read another eyewitness account of a child evacuee, watch a video of Anne Frank's hideout, and learn about child heroes and heroines. They can gather all of this relevant information using quotes and paraphrasing to answer their questions.
Discover More Readers: Scripting the News
Your students will be excited to write their own news report. Support students as they choose a topic from the book, list key details, and include a photo with a caption. If students are reading Shark Attack!, they might consider writing a news report about the number of sharks that are killed; their report can include information from the conservationist and discuss what can be done to stop the killing. Guide them to answer these questions: who, what, where, when, and how.
Discover More Tip: Divide the book into sections or chapters as students learn how to write about a topic or analyze a topic.
Discover Even More: Use the digital companion to show students videos and interviews with important people, and guide them to include additional information in their writing.
Science and Technical Subjects
Guide students in Grades 6–8 to use strategies to read Science and Technical Subjects, such as finding central ideas, considering the author's choices, and understanding craft and structure.
Expert Reader Books: Using Focusing Questions
Help students stay on track as they read through complex science text. Think about asking students one of these questions as they read:
- What are the central ideas of the text?
- What point is the author trying to make?
- What steps were taken to carry out a procedure or experiment?
- How is the information in the book different or the same as the information in the digital companion or other resources?
Discover More Tip: To keep track of evidence and new words as students read, have them use sticky notes or a reading notebook to write down ideas.
Discover Even More: Project the digital companion on the whiteboard or on a screen to model reading informational text fluently, using context-clues to figure out meaning, and using text features to pick out important information.
Help your students demonstrate a range of skills and applications, including conventions of Standard English, knowledge of language, and vocabulary acquisition and use.
Emergent Reader Books: Understanding Inflectional Endings
As students face the challenge of reading unfamiliar words, teach them to look at all parts of the word to find meaning. Look through the Scholastic Discover More book you are reading with the class and find words that contain the inflectional endings -s, -es, -ing, and -ed. Write each inflectional ending on a colored index card. Write each root word on an index card of another color. Have students work with a partner or small group to form new words with the inflectional endings. Have students describe how the inflectional ending changes the word and have them use it in a sentence. Then draw a web so students can easily see how each word changes. This activity can also be used with affixes.
Confident Reader Books: Using the Vocabulary Routine
The Scholastic Discover More books contain an abundance of academic and domain-specific words that need to be explicitly taught. Teach students words from the glossary and throughout the text, providing repeated exposures.
1. Say the new word and ask students to rate the word.
1=I don't know the word.
2=I've seen or heard it.
3=I think I know the word.
4=I know it and use it.
2. Pronounce the new word, break down the syllables, and ask students to repeat it.
3. Explain the meaning in student-friendly language and discuss the part of speech.
4. Provide examples of the word that are meaningful to the students.
5. Ask questions using the word and ask students to answer in a complete sentence that contains the word.
6. To review more than one word that has been explicitly taught, give students cloze sentences and ask them to provide the correct word.
Expert Reader Books: Using Word Relationships
Academic words need to be taught explicitly since students will frequently encounter these words in complex text. Teach students to think about the word family, synonyms, and antonyms by using the example below.
Academic Word: transform
Word Family: form, transformation, transfer
Synonyms: change, alter
Antonyms: preserve, stagnate
Discover More Readers: Learning Greek and Latin Roots
Many domain-specific words contain Greek and Latin roots. Explicitly teach these roots and their meanings to students so they can break down new words into familiar word parts. Use word webs to help students see the meaning, brainstorm other words, and write a sentence.
Discover More Tip: As you read aloud, discuss and provide examples of the four different types of sentences: declarative, interrogative, imperative, and exclamatory.
Discover Even More: Have students keep a reading notebook to write down new words and definitions from the text and digital companion. Ask students to refer to these words when they are reading and writing.
Speaking and Listening
Teach students to gain the skill of listening comprehension by taking part in collaborative discussions and presenting their ideas and knowledge.
Emergent Reader Books: Reading Pictures
After reading aloud a Scholastic Discover More book, show a video from the digital companion. Ask students questions about key details of the video such as:
- What is the topic? How do you know?
- What are the key details?
- What new information did you learn from the video?
- Can you provide more information about the people, places, things, or events?
Allow students time to answer by engaging them in a Think-Pair-Share, asking them to formulate their thoughts, share their ideas during a collaborative discussion with a partner, and then present their ideas to the group.
Confident Reader Books: Comprehending Media Formats
Students are expected to learn from books read aloud, factual information presented in conversations, and from videos. Play one of the videos on the digital companion and ask students to take notes on what they saw and what they heard. Then play the video again and ask them to write down new things they saw and heard. Ask students to talk to a partner to identify the main idea and key details, and to discuss how watching the video twice helped them.
Expert Reader Books: Translating With Words
Students might know that the text features included in Scholastic Discover More books make learning factual information interesting and engaging, but help them understand the importance of charts, graphs, time lines, and other numerical representations. Ask students to discuss what the visual representation means using words. Also ask them how the representation helps make the information easier to understand. Then have groups take turns presenting their thoughts to the whole group. Provide time for a question-and-answer session.
Discover More Readers: Reporting the News
Have students write a script for a news presentation, as described on page 7. Next, have them present their script in a news report. Students might want to include opening and closing music, an interview with a scripted expert or an eyewitness, or a video from the digital companion. If possible, introduce students to using new forms of technology by audio or video recording their presentation.
Discover More Tip: Work with students to create a list of agreed-upon rules for discussions, such as listening when someone is talking, taking turns to speak, and talking about the topic under discussion.
Discover Even More: Help students develop their auditory skills by using the listen buttons in the Emergent Reader books and asking them to describe the sounds.

Terrance Howard—is he depressed?
Howard and wife Michelle Ghent (biracial Eurasian IMO) are in divorce mode. She is calling him the N word. I've seen this often in mixed race couples. The white partner resorts to calling the black one the N word or their family does it. He has allegedly thought about killing himself and is also exhibiting tons of self-destructive behavior. Terrance you got money–get help before it's too late.
11) Over Thanksgiving weekend, Terrence Howard called Michelle Ghent Howard and told her "I felt like killing myself today." He stalked her for several days after, on the telephone, until he sent the following email on Dec. 2:
"If you wanted, you could crush me with the push of a button. I have no recourse, I have pleaded with Jehovah to fortify my heart that I do not fall into angry and revengeful retaliation against my forsaken love.

A ship with a displacement of 10,000 tons is set to be deployed by the China Coast Guard next year, the largest coast guard vessel in the world, according to Shanghai-based New Outlook.
On Dec. 13 a Chinese netizen uploaded a picture of the ship at the Shanghai Jiangnan Shipyard, which shows that the country's first coast guard ship to break the 10,000 ton displacement mark is already in water and the paintwork is almost complete.
The vessel, the Haijing 2901, is bigger than any of the Japan Coast Guard ships, making it the biggest coast guard ship in the world. The ship will be deployed in spring next year at the earliest, according to reports.
Maritime enforcement has become a major isssue for Beijing, given its determination to assert its territorial claims in the South and East China seas. Chinese law enforcement units outmatched the Japan Coast Guard in the April 23 standoff over the disputed Diaoyu (Senkaku or Diaoyutai) islands, the website asid.
Before the China Coast Guard Bureau was set up last year, the chief engineer at the Jiangnan Shipyard, Hu Keyi, said the shipyard had received orders for two maritime patrol ships with a displacement of 10,000 tons.
As early as 2013, a report from Japan's Fuji News Network had already suggested that China was developing law enforcement vessels on this scale.
The report stated that China had purchased 40 powerful new diesel engines from German engine manufacturer Man Diesel & Turbo, reportedly for use by the China Coast Guard Bureau.
Reports suggest that the loaded displacement of the ship could reach 12,000 tons, with a speed of 25 knots.
The vessel has 76mm rapid-fire naval guns, two secondary turrets and two anti-aircraft machine guns. Its cruising endurance, seaworthiness and speed give it an advantage over other countries in the region, according to the news organization.
As the first number in the ship's serial number is 2, the ship will likely be deployed to the East China Sea, with the disputed Diaoyu islands its main area of patrol.
After examining the photograph taken by the Chinese internet user, observers have stated that the Jiangnan Shipyard is also building a Type 071 Yuzhao-class amphibious transport dock, a Type 054A multirole frigate and a Type 815G electronic intelligence ship.
Reports have stated that the ship began the painting process last month and that it will be completed by the end of this year. The ship will displace Japan's Shikishima PLH31 and the Akitsushima PLH32 as the biggest coast guard ships in the world.

- Premier League round-up
City leave it late as Arsenal leapfrog Spurs, Reds cruise
This season ESPN Goals is completely free. It's the first place to see every goal from every Premier League game, all season long
Gareth Barry scored a last-gasp winner as Manchester City broke Reading hearts, while Arsenal beat Wigan to leapfrog Tottenham, who were held to a goalless draw by Stoke. Everton came from behind to beat West Ham, while Norwich's unbeaten run came to an end at West Brom.
Premier League table & results
Manchester City closed the gap on leaders Manchester United in the Premier League title race as Gareth Barry scored a dramatic late winner to sink Reading 1-0.
Barry scored in the dying minutes to earn three points at Etihad Stadium after the Royals had frustrated the champions for 90 minutes. Reading have the leakiest defence in the Premier League, but neither Sergio Aguero nor Carlos Tevez could make the home side's dominance count in the first half.
The visitors stuck to their game plan, often playing with eight in defence and camped in their own half for most of the match. They had their own chances to snatch a goal, and Jay Tabb felt aggrieved not to have been awarded a penalty after he was checked by debutant Karim Rekik.
Reading looked to have done enough to earn a point and stem a run of six successive defeats, but suffered a heartbreaking defeat after Barry nodded David Silva's cross into the bottom corner in the 93rd minute.
Arsenal climbed to the dizzy heights of third in the Premier League table with a 1-0 win at Wigan in Saturday's lunchtime kick-off.
The Gunners and their manager Arsene Wenger have come in for criticism this season, but they produced a battling display to claim a third straight win in the Premier League and consign Wigan to Christmas in the relegation places.
It was not vintage Arsenal in dire weather, but they kept plugging away and a Mikel Arteta penalty on 59 minutes after Theo Walcott had been felled in the box by Jean Beausejour sealed the three points.
Tottenham missed the chance to move into third as they were held to a 0-0 draw by Stoke City at White Hart Lane.
Spurs had won four of their last five matches, but were fortunate not to fall behind early when Kenwyne Jones blasted over after Kyle Walker had given the ball away in defence.
Gareth Bale, back from a hamstring injury, showed Spurs what they had been missing, and his cross to the far post found Emmanuel Adebayor, whose header looped well off target. In a game of few chances Jermain Defoe's long-range effort flew wide while Bale headed over from six yards from Aaron Lennon's cross.
Stewart Downing played a starring role as Liverpool returned to winning ways with a resounding 4-0 win over Fulham.
The Reds suffered a shock home defeat to Aston Villa last weekend, but Downing restored festive cheer at Anfield, scoring one and providing another as they cruised to victory.
Martin Skrtel gave the Reds an early lead with a thumping volley before Steven Gerrard doubled the scoreline after being fed through by a lovely Downing through-ball.
Downing then scored his first Premier League goal for Liverpool, beating former Reds defender John Arne Riise before rifling in a powerful strike from the edge of the penalty area. Luis Suarez put the icing on the cake with a fourth in injury time as Liverpool moved up to eighth.
Steven Pienaar scored the winner as Everton came from behind to beat West Ham 2-1 Upton Park as both teams ended the game with ten men.
West Ham took the lead just moments after Everton had a goal disallowed in the first half before the Toffees launched a second-half fightback to earn all three points.
Leon Osman's header found the back of the net from a corner, but referee Anthony Taylor deemed that Victor Anichebe had impeded Hammers keeper Jussi Jaaskelainen. Carlton Cole added insult to injury just two minutes later, turning neatly to beat the Everton defence to smash the ball past Tim Howard from the edge of the area.
But Everton made a bright start to second half, Nikica Jelavic and Darron Gibson both threatening Jaaskelainen's goal, although the visitors were leaving themselves open to breaks. But they were soon rewarded for their pressure, and Victor Anichebe rose to meet Pienaar's whipped cross to draw Everton level.
Sam Allardyce was left fuming when Cole was given his marching orders after he caught Leighton Baines with his studs. And the sending off proved costly as Everton made the most of their numerical advantage, Pienaar bundling home from close range after some neat play from Osman.
Gibson was sent off in the dying minutes for a high challenge on Mark Noble, but Everton held on for the victory.
Newcastle secured a much-needed three points as they earned a narrow 1-0 win over Queens Park Rangers at St James' Park.
In a poor game of few chances, Harry Redknapp's unbeaten start to life as QPR manager came to an end as Shola Amoebi scored a late winner to earn three points for the Magpies.
Adel Taarabt, who scored twice to inspire the Hoops to their first victory of the season last weekend, showed glimpses of brilliance, waltzing through the Newcastle defence, but Djibril Cisse could only find the sidenetting.
But Ameobi, on as a substitute for Papiss Cisse, collected a pass from Sylvain Marveaux before cutting inside and stroking a neat strike past Robert Green.
Southampton are hovering dangerously above the bottom three on goal difference after they were beaten 1-0 by Sunderland at St Mary's Stadium.
Ricky Lambert had a handful of chances to give the hosts an early lead, but his free-kick was deflected wide.
Saints had been in a good run of form after taking 11 points from their last six matches, but it was Sunderland, who had won just one of their last 16 away matches, who took all three points thanks to Steven Fletcher's eighth goal of the season.
Stephane Sessegnon's scuffed shot found its way to Steven Fletcher, who smashed home from close range shortly before half-time.
Southampton continued to press and came close to grabbing an equaliser, with both Guilherme Do Prado and Gaston Ramirez having shots blocked in the dying stages.
Norwich's unbeaten run came to an end as they were beaten 2-1 by West Bromwich Albion. The Canaries took an early lead at The Hawthorns courtesy of Robert Snodgrass' free-kick, but Romelu Lukaku scored the winner after Zoltan Gera's equaliser.
Ben Foster, returning to first-team action after a double hernia operation, was called into action early, and looked rusty as he was beaten by Snodgrass' free-kick. Snodgrass, who had been fouled by Peter Odemwingie from 25 yards, curled a superb effort into the top corner for his third goal in five games.
But the Baggies bounced back, Gera knocking in from close range after Mark Bunn could only push Jonas Olsson's header onto the bar. And Lukaku grabbed all three points with a late winner, burying a powerful header to beat Bunn.

SURPRISE, Ariz. — Based on how they've been used in the past and how they've pitched in spring training, Paul Maholm and Seth Rosin could both be in a major-league rotation this season. Somewhere.
If either pitcher makes the Dodgers' Opening Day roster, it will probably be as a reliever.
That's simply a function of where the numbers stand right now; the Dodgers began camp with five healthy starters on guaranteed major-league contracts aside from Maholm and Rosin. Aside from Zack Greinke's mild calf injury, that hasn't changed.
The 31-year-old Maholm has been a starter for his entire career, and he started the first of two Cactus League games Saturday for the Dodgers. Maholm threw more than 50 pitches — 41 in the first three innings of the Dodgers' 5-5 tie against the Texas Rangers and another "12 or so" in the bullpen.
"I'm preparing for the season like I have for, I think this is my 11th spring," he said. "I'm going to try and get quick outs."
Rosin is on a starter's program, too. The 25-year-old right-hander threw three innings while allowing only one unearned run before an announced crowd of 8,153 at Surprise Stadium. His third Cactus League appearance was easily his worst so far. He struggled with command, walking a batter and throwing a wild pitch, and also balked runners to second and third base in the fifth inning.
But he left the game with the Dodgers ahead 3-2, allowing only an unearned run. Rosin still hasn't allowed an earned run in eight spring innings while striking out 10 and allowing only five hits.
"These guys are both being built as starters and right now that's where we're at," Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said, after declining to comment on the possibility that either would begin the season in the bullpen.
"I'm going to prepare and pitch whenever they tell me to," Maholm said. "If I pitch well everything's going to work out. I'm not concerned with roles or anything. You pitch well, they find a spot for you."
Dodgers tie Rangers, play Mariners
Texas scored three runs in the ninth inning off minor-league reliever Henry Sosa to forge the 5-5 tie, the Dodgers' third of the spring.
Two players vying for utility roles might have helped their causes. Justin Turner finished 2 for 2 with a walk, raising his spring batting average to .375. He committed a fielding error at shortstop in the fourth inning on a routine groundball hit by Mitch Moreland, and also made three clean plays for assists. Mike Baxter went 2 for 2 with a double, raising his spring average to .333.
Chone Figgins started at second base and went 0 for 3 with a walk, lowering his average to .150.
Starting a rare night game against the Seattle Mariners, Dodgers right-hander Josh Beckett allowed five runs — including three homers — in three innings. He allowed six hits and walked one batter among 52 pitches. Justin Smoak, Jesus Montero and Stefen Romero clubbed the home runs, all off Beckett fastballs.
Dee Gordon stole his sixth base of the spring in the first inning, went to third base on a throwing error, and scored the Dodgers' first run on an RBI single by Scott Van Slyke.
Games on horizon for Greinke, Kemp
Greinke and Dodgers outfielder Matt Kemp got closer to returning to game action.
Greinke threw approximately 35 pitches in a simulated game in the morning, about half to Kemp and the other half to prospect Scott Schebler. He threw another 50 in the bullpen.
"I'm feeling healthy," Greinke said. "I wanted to see some hitters, try to throw several different pitches. They all kind of came out pretty good. Not midseason form or anything, but pretty good."
Greinke's health and repertoire are still works in progress. He got Kemp to swing and miss at a big curveball, "but he was hitting the fastball good," Greinke said. In a couple days, Greinke thinks his strained right calf will be fully healed; for now, fielding ground balls off the mound remains an issue.
"I can field," he said. "If Dee Gordon hit a ground ball to first, I wouldn't be able to beat him to first. Right now I wouldn't be able to get there in time. But if A.J. Ellis did I still might not, but I'd probably be able to get there in time."
Mattingly said that Greinke will throw another bullpen session if he's healthy, then possibly jump back into a game.
Prior to the simulated game, Kemp ran the bases under the watch of Dodgers head athletic trainer Stan Conte. Later, he practiced tracking fly balls in center field at less than full speed.
"We're seeing good jumps," Mattingly said of Kemp, who will not be on the roster for the Dodgers' season-opening trip to Sydney, Australia. "He's obviously swinging the bat good. It won't be long before he's in a game."
Also …
Dodgers general manager Ned Colletti said during the radio broadcast of the Dodgers-Rangers game the mystery surrounding who will start in Sydney will end soon. "I think it's very likely we're going to announce this the next couple days," Colletti said. "Clayton (Kershaw) is probably going to be on the mound there." Mattingly declined to elaborate after the game. … Yasiel Puig is expected to return to the team today after an excused one-day absence.

July 2005
DOE review of proteomic informatics capability given high marks
Contact: Dave Koppenaal
PNNL's proteomics and bioinformatics capabilities were reviewed by DOE's Office of Biological and Environmental Research (BER) March 29. The purpose of the review was to understand PNNL's informatics capabilities and evaluate the Proteomics Research Information Storage and Management (PRISM) system and related tools for their ability to address the informatics challenges of the proteomics research program as outlined in the proposal for continuation of BER support. The reviewers were BER program manager Marvin Stodolsky; Theodoros Topaloglou, Protana, Inc.; Nathan Goodman, Institute for Systems Biology; and Terry Gaasterland, University of California-San Diego.
The review was extremely well received, and the reviewers' overall assessment is that "the current informatics platform meets the needs of the high-throughput proteomics production operations. The platform has grown in an environment of evolving requirements driven by the proteomics technology development efforts...however, it has been established in practice that the platform is scalable and extensible. The team follows the data standards initiatives in the area of proteomics data and has presented a plan for incorporating parts of these standards in their future work."
This was Stodolsky's first visit to the lab, and he noted that it was a useful trip, because "The scope of the proteomics facility and the depth/enthusiasm of the support team could not otherwise be appreciated. BER thus considers the review started in the Fall 2004 concluded, entirely successfully."
Staff involved in the review included Dick Smith, Gordon Anderson, Ken Auberry, Deep Jaitly, Matt Monroe, Mary Lipton, and Dave Koppenaal.

The former Pineapple Isle is abuzz over the nonstop changes — widely viewed as positive — that Oracle mogul Larry Ellison has brought to this quiet island of under 3,000 residents since taking ownership last June. I'll write more about those in the coming weeks, but old-time Maui and Lāna'i
visitors and potential eco-travelers may be most intrigued by Ellison's plans for "Club Lanai," a long-abandoned oceanfront destination near remote Lōpā Beach with a wharf once used by day trippers from Maui.
Along with building desalinization plant and a second, larger runway at the airport — the other big news from Thursday night's community meeting, reported to me by several local sources — Ellison wants to revive the palm-tree-graced area as an eco-friendly bungalow resort, perhaps similar to the old Kona Village or what used to exist on Moloka'i Ranch. He may even pave the bumpy, stone-strewn dirt road that takes about an hour from Lāna'i City, or (more controversially) turn a partial road and ancient Hawaiian trail from Manele Harbor into a faster route from the ferry.
Here's a sneak peek at what's there now, which just a few weeks ago was wildly overgrown. Ellison's staff works fast…

Wisconsin-based Company Opening Facility in Sioux Falls
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) - A Wisconsin based company has announced it is opening a 40,000-square-foot cereal ingredient processing facility in South Dakota.
Glanbia Nutritionals Ingredient Technologies announced Tuesday that the company is opening the new facility in Sioux Falls. It will employ 38 people and begin operations in July 2013.
The facility will produce whole and milled flaxseed ingredients for the food and beverage industries. It will replace a plant in Canada that was destroyed by a fire in March.
Company president Jerry O'Dea says Sioux Falls was selected as the location for the facility because of its proximity to the Canadian Flax growing region, its transportation infrastructure, convenience and support from state and local leaders.
Gov. Dennis Daugaard says Glanbia is a leader in the agricultural industry and he's pleased to welcome them.

Five Original Arguments in My Book
For people looking for new arguments I actually think I can count five new ones that have probably never been used before in one book (at least not in the way I do that I know of). That's quite an accomplishment since most people don't come up with a new argument their entire lives. It has been quipped, "Confound the ancients; they've stolen all of our ideas." New arguments are hard to come by because there have been thousands of years of books that predate ours. A.N. Whitehead said all philosophy is but a footnote to Plato (This is a gross exaggeration).
And yet, I think there are five things in my book that are probably original to it: 1) My outsider test for faith; 2) my version of the problem of evil (which assumes God exists); 3) Testing the results of prayer by praying to change the past; 4) Looking at the superstitious nature of the people in the Bible (this has been suggested before but mine is probably the first detailed discussion of it); 5) the structure of the whole book itself having three parts containing one cumulative and comprehensive argument against Christian theism.
Some very good reviews are being written about it, for which I'm very thankful. [I update this link periodically.]

It all looked so simple for the Vancouver Whitecaps. So easy.
Pedro Morales driving a flat screamer of a corner kick from the right flag, finding Carlyle Mitchell alone at the six-yard box after he had wriggled clear of Chivas defender Eriq Zavaleta.
The athletic, six-foot-two centre back didn't even have to elevate. He simply bent a bit, nodded the ball down and it squirted through the legs of goalkeeper Dan Kennedy.
A 1-0 Caps' lead in the 27th minute on Saturday at BC Place on a sparkling play.
But this was just the Caps' first goal off a corner kick in 81 tries over 17 games this season. And their first corner conversion since fullback Jordan Harvey's glancing header just under the bar in Portland last August.
With the exception of a penalty shot, or even a free kick from just outside the box, the corner kick would appear to be the best gift-wrapped scoring opportunity. It's a chance to freely put a ball into an opponent's box while bringing up one or both of your header-proficient centre backs.
While the Whitecaps have not done well the last couple of seasons at converting corner kicks into goals, they aren't particularly alone. Around the world, the success rate has fallen, often dipping below five per cent in many leagues and competitions.

Which made it kind of surprising, then that Chivas tied Saturday's game three minutes into the second half off a corner of their own en route to a 3-1 win.
It was poorly defended by the Caps, something that plagued the club early last season. Mauro Rosales' kick went just over the head of a leaping Matias Laba and with neither Johnny Leveron nor Steven Beitashour blocking out Agustin Pelletieri, the Chivas midfielder easily nodded the ball low past goalkeeper David Ousted.
"(Allowing) a goal off a set piece is not good," said Caps' head coach Carl Robinson. "We scored our first goal off a set piece for a while, so that was pleasing, then sod's roll, we go and concede off a set piece as well, so that was disappointing."
Two goals off corners in the same MLS game is an anomaly. More often than not, for defences, corners have become little more than a routine exercise in clearing balls.
Hard numbers on corner conversions are difficult to find, particularly because some consider a goal scored with more than one pass after the corner has been taken to have come from run of play. Others consider any goal scored after being touched two, three or four times after to have resulted from the corner.
A 2011 study of English Premier League corners showed that 80 per cent don't even result in an attempt on goal. And the best ratio of corners to goals that season was 0.07 for Fulham.
It doesn't help offences either that the box has too often turned into a freestyle wrestling mat. Anybody who watched the zoomed-in, slow-motion replays on corners into the box at this year's World Cup, has seen defenders tugging on shirts, using armbars to hold attackers down and all but tackling players to keep them from balls. And they seem to do it with impunity. Rarely are fouls ever given.
At the 2010 World Cup, just nine goals were scored on a shot off a corner into the penalty area from the 627 corners taken.
On Mitchell's goal, there was a bit of traffic jam at the near post, but, surprisingly, he had plenty of room to fake Zavaleta that he was going inside, only to backtrack a step or two to get room to handle Morales' perfect ball.
It was the first career goal for the Trinidad and Tobago international in his 24th MLS game. Nearly all his previous nine shot attempts had come off corners and he'd come close on a couple of occasions last season in his 13 starts.
"I've been getting close ... and I've been saying 'One day it will be in.' It was a great cross by Pedro and I just had to finish," said Mitchell, who limped off late in stoppage time Saturday with a groin problem.
"It's a good feeling getting my first goal for the club, but unfortunately we didn't get the result we expected."
A week earlier, in a 1-0 win over Seattle, Mitchell nearly scored his first goal with his foot. A Morales free kick from just outside the box on the right bounced crazily before landing at Mitchell's feet. But his quick shot from eight yards out was blocked by lunging Sounders' centre back Chad Marshall.
Robinson said he hopes that Mitchell's goal will lead to more tallies off corners now that the ice has been broken.
"I thought the service has been there the last few games, it really has. We need to attack the ball more because we have got good service."
With Mitchell having finally opened his MLS account, perhaps all that good service from Morales won't be going to waste.

Negative re-enforcement

Funny how the assholes can be the guys to give you just enough push though!ReplyDelete
It has been 3 days and no new posts - what's UPReplyDelete
No replies since 2009? I just reached you blog searching for some random thoughts concerning "Hovey" frames. I traded in my perfect Schwinn Paramound track bike for a forest green Hovey and build a bike that I have been riding and lugging around ever since. I think 1976 and the the bike has been ridden all around the west coast and eventually being painted gray (the paint was never the high spot of this bike). My kid recently moved out and without asking took my "Hovey" with him. He commutes on it daily! He has excited young riders in Seattle stop him and like me when I was riding it, ask him where he got it. The first thing you have to do is spell the name of the builder, because coming from the birthplace of "Huffy", that is what they all assume you are talking about. Anyway, even young afficiandos know a classic bike when they see it. Being loaded with Phil Wood components doesn't hurt either.ReplyDelete

It's often said that real-life spy work is nothing like being James Bond. James Bond is all about shooting things and explosions and women and car chases, which is supposedly not real spy work. But with a new change in law, that last bit may just become reality, because British spies are now allowed to break the speed limit.
Officers of Britain's two awesomely-named spy agencies, MI5 and MI6, will be allowed to drive like absolute maniacs if circumstances warrant it, according to The Independent:
Officers with MI5 and MI6 will soon have the same legal right to go through red lights, over zebra crossings and ignore road markings as the emergency services, if they can prove that national security was at stake.
Secret agents will still be required to drive in a "responsible manner", however, and be subject to the same checks under the revised Road Safety Act as police, ambulance and fire service drivers. They will also be required to take a course in high-speed driving.
Bad ass. We should all expect to see spies flying through the air and bashing through fences and generally everything in the UK will look like this now:
In a totally unrelated story, all British government employees will now being driving Q'd-out Aston Martins.
That last bit is probably not true, but if you told me it was, I'd believe you.
H/t to Ilya!

How to Use the Images
The surrender of the British forces under General Burgoyne was reported throughout Europe. France, where this image was engraved, followed the story with great interest as it weighed whether to form a military alliance with the newly declared United States of America. According to the surrender agreement, the "Articles of Convention," Burgoyne, his officers, and staff rode to Gate's headquarters between American soldiers (few uniformed) lined on either side of the road. Burgoyne's army marched out of camp with "the Honors of War" (regimental colors flying, bands playing), laid down their arms on the parade ground, then marched between the American lines. Both armies observed Burgoyne surrender his sword to Gates who immediately returned it to Burgoyne.
Questions for Drawing 3
1. What evidence is there in both the foreground and the background of the picture that this engraving depicts a surrender ceremony?
2. What appear to be the emotions of General Burgoyne and General Gates? What appear to be the emotions of the officers accompanying Burgoyne? What appear to be the emotions of the soldiers accompanying Gates?
3. What aspects of the engraving seem to be most accurate? What seem to be historical inaccuracies, and why?

Hope College Theatre will present "The Nina Variations" on Friday and Saturday, Oct. 5 and 6, and Wednesday through Saturday, Oct. 10-13, at 8 p.m. in the DeWitt Center studio theatre.
"The Nina Variations," written by Steven Dietz, explores the final scene of one of Anton Chekhov's most respected Russian plays. "Having been approached several years ago about writing a new adaptation of 'The Sea Gull,' I immersed myself in the play. And what I found surprised me: I could not get the final scene between Treplev and Nina out of my mind. In fact, I could not focus on the rest of the play at all," Dietz writes in his author's note.
The production, directed by Hope professor Daina Robins, is divided into 43 different variations of the final scene from the varying perspectives of ill-fated lovers. Treplev, a troubled writer, loves Nina, a young actress. They have known each other since childhood. Their adolescence tempted love, but when Trigorin, a well-known author entered the scene, Nina fell head over heels and ran away from Treplev's love. The production starts where their separate lives connect after two years have passed. Jaded by her failed relationship with Trigorin and unsuccessful acting career, Nina has returned to Treplev. Both Treplev and Nina try to recapture the love of their youth, but it eludes them both.
"It is the eternal dialogue between men and women, lovers and the loved," Robins said. "Many times two people are not at the same place at the same time. It is the eternal misunderstanding of desire, expectation, fantasy, dreams: all things not based in reality. The production asks: how do we find love in life? So often we make so many mistakes in that search."
Although the play was originally written for two actors, Robins cast the show with six students in an effort to support the great interest shown by student actors. "There are multiple ways to perform this production," she says. "The Theatre Department is dedicated to creating the strongest experience for the students."
In addition to Robins, other faculty members on the design team include: Richard Smith, scenic and properties designer; Michelle Bombe, costume designer; Perry Landes, lighting and sound designer; and staff member Paul Anderson, technical director.
Student members of the production team include: junior Pat Feder of Grand Rapids, assistant master electrician; sophomore Jeri Fredrickson of Wheaton, Ill., stage manager; sophomore Elizabeth Ogle of Holland, assistant stage manager; sophomore Candice Tindell of Grayslake, Ill., assistant stage manager; junior Katie Terpstra of Zeeland, assistant properties designer; and junior Laura Van Tassell of Spencer, Iowa, master electrician.
Cast members include: senior Katherine Bramley of Northbrook, Ill., as Nina; sophomore Isaac Bush of Muskegon as Treplev; sophomore Alex Martin of Holland as Treplev; junior Naomi Pointer of Manistee as Nina; senior Jon Sprik of Grand Rapids as Treplev; and senior Whitney Thomas of Granville, Ohio, as Nina.
Tickets for "The Nina Variations" are $7 for regular admission, $5 for Hope faculty and staff, and $4 for students and senior citizens, and are available in the ticket office inside the east entrance of the DeVos Fieldhouse, which is open weekdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. In addition, the theatre lobby ticket office in the DeWitt Center will be open on performance nights shortly before 8 p.m. The ticket office may be called at (616) 395-7890.
The DeVos Fieldhouse is located at 222 Fairbanks Ave. between Ninth and 11th streets. The DeWitt Center is located at 141 E. 12th St., facing Columbia Avenue at 12th Street.

Facebook Delete Friends CSRF Flaw
- May 19th, 2010
- Write comment
I recently came across an article regarding a CSRF vulnerability on Facebook discovered by M.J. Keith. Keith documents how Facebook does not enforce the CSRF protection token "post_form_id". He states that when it is omitted entirely from some of the requests, Facebook executes the request as if it wasn't even required in the first place. A demo video is located on the site which shows how someone can exploit this flaw to seamlessly update a user's Facebook profile information.
Although Facebook has reported that it has fixed this flaw, I decided to look into it a bit further.
After playing around with a few requests, I noticed that there still remains a CSRF vulnerability pertaining to the request used to delete a friend. By completely omitting the "post_form_id", as well as a few other parameters, I noticed that Facebook will still carry out the deletion of the friend whose id was specified in the request. This allows an attacker to seamlessly delete specified friends from the currently logged in Facebook user by getting the user to visit a specially crafted web page.
I than began thinking if it would be possible to delete ALL the friends of the currently logged in Facebook user at once, just by making them visit a malicious web page. Being aware of Facebook's privacy settings, I remembered that most users' friend lists are public. Having done a little bit of Facebook application development in the past, I began looking into some of the old REST API calls to see if there was a quick and easy way to obtain the profile ids of each of the victim's friends without authorization. I noticed that this was possible, but it required authorization from the user. Authorization is also necessary for the new API calls. I decided to do a raw HTML scrape of their friends list. After parsing out the id from each friend on the target's friend list, I can then execute the user deletion request for the id of each of the victim's friends.
The PoC that I wrote to demonstrate this uses Ajax to constantly fetch and parse waves of friend ids from the victim's public friend's list. It then dynamically creates an iframe in the DOM for each friend id gathered and uses the iframe's source to pass the id to a another script. This script then populates a form with the appropriate request variables, then auto-submits the vulnerable request to Facebook, using javascript. This process seamlessly loops in the background until all of the victim's friends are deleted.
Below is a simple demo video demonstrating the CSRF vulnerability on a single friend.
*Update (5/22/10): After reporting the flaw to Facebook Wednesday afternoon, I have confirmed as of Friday afternoon that the flaw has been successfully patched. Facebook now strictly enforces the existence of the "post_form_id" CSRF protection token in the request. Hopefully they do this for all other serious requests as well. I have updated the above post with more details pertaining to the flaw, as well as my method of exploiting it.

Sudan: Tunisian solidarity with women in Sudan
The Sudanese court decided on Tuesday (August 4th) to adjourn the trial until September 7th. The delay, the second of its kind, came after the defendant's lawyer filed a petition with the court claiming that his client had diplomatic immunity based on her work with the UN mission in Sudan.
The latest trial was marked by confrontations between police and female protesters who staged a sit-in opposite the courthouse to condemn both the trial and the laws that ban the wearing of trousers. The protesters carried banners reading "No Return to the Dark Ages."
"The case has turned into a public opinion case and has attracted more sympathizers, men and women alike, and women's rights activists, especially because [Hussein] works as a journalist for the UN," said Abdi.
According to Salah Zghidi, a founding member of the Association for the Defense of Secularism in Tunisia, the case confirms the "backwardness" that he said characterized "obscurantists" everywhere.
"It's become necessary for people and the so-called international community to deal with backward regimes based on what they do to women in particular," said Zghidi, adding: "I absolutely can't accept that international human rights movements, international community bodies and the EU take lots of action when an opposition figure in this or that country is illegally arrested or tortured, while they turn a blind eye to the horrible daily acts of aggression committed against women."
The defendant's lawyer says the case has nothing to do with women's rights.
"The [charges] on which Lubna Hussein is being tried are not the original cause," Hussein's lawyer, Soumia Sandali, told Magharebia in a statement. "The case is fabricated and has nothing to do with women's freedom issues. Rather, the real reason is Lubna's work for the mission of the UN, which recently backed the trial of Sudan's president in the International Criminal Court."
However, according to a CNN report on Tuesday, Hussein deliberately resigned from her post with the UN mission's media department in order to lose immunity and face the charges.
Even given Sandali's statements, the perception that women's rights are at stake, and that the trial is linked to regional religious extremism, continues to permeate the conversation in Tunis.
"I don't think that the punishment was only the result of her wearing of the trousers; rather, according to what [Hussein] said in an interview with an Arab TV station, it was also because of her writings as a journalist," journalist Douaja Eweidni told Magharebia. "[She] is just one example of thousands of women who suffer discrimination and violence in some societies that prevent them from exercising their most basic rights."
"I'm shocked by the idea of punishing a girl or a woman because of wearing trousers, or the idea of interfering in personal freedoms," student Salim Ben Arafa told Magharebia in a statement. "I'm also against any religious text dominating public or political life. This is the source of our problems, and it's a disaster that such a situation lingers on in the 21st century.""

Human rights defender, Ms Ammal Habani, is facing judicial prosecution following the publication of an article she wrote in defence of Ms Lubna Ahmad Hussein who is currently being prosecuted for violating the Sudanese dress code by wearing trousers in public. Ammal Habini is a journalist for Ajras Al-Hureya newspaper and a defender of women's rights in Sudan.

Years ago, I was new to town, broke and suffering from Endometriosis. I was working at a fast food place that didn't offer a secure place to put my belongings. My second day on the job, my money and my meds were stolen.
I made several panicked phone calls. No doctors would see me or write a prescription without seeing me. No body would help. The longer I was off the pill… the worse my symptons [sic] were going to be in the coming months. And I knew that I could lose my job if my cycle was so painful I was down for the count.
I finally found the Planned Parenthood in our community. I went. They charged me less then $25 and that included a month worth of the Pill.
It is thanks to Planned Parenthood that I was able to get to the place in my life that I could be the mother I am. That is what they do best.
Planned Parenthood provided me with access to birth control while I was involved in an abusive relationship. If I had gotten pregnant while being married to a man who used to physically and emotionally abuse me, I'm not sure I would have survived.

Spartanburg-based Milliken & Co. was recognized Wednesday for its ethical business practices.
It marks the seventh consecutive year Milliken has been named to the World's Most Ethical Companies list put together by the Ethisphere Institute, an international think-tank dedicated to promoting best business practices. Milliken is one of only a handful of companies to be named on the list every year since its inception in 2007.
"This honor is one of the most highly prized for Milliken and our associates," Joe Salley, the company's chief executive, said in a statement. "It enables us to continue to celebrate what we as a company have known for nearly 150 years; that acting ethically and with integrity is not only the right thing to do, it is the foundation of our success."
The institute said it received a record number of nominations and applications this year. Ethisphere reviewed nominations from companies in more than 100 countries and 36 industries.
Selectees were chosen based on their codes of ethics, litigation and regulatory histories, investments in innovation and sustainable business practices. The institute also looked at activities designed to improve corporate citizenship and studied nominations from senior executives, industry peers, suppliers and customers.
"Not only did more people apply… but we are also seeing more companies being proactive and create new initiatives that expand ethics programs and cultures across entire industries," Alex Brigham, executive director of Ethisphere, said in a statement.
A few other companies with local operations also made the list, including AECOM, CH2M HILL, Cisco Systems Inc., Eaton Corp., Flour Corp., Johnson Controls Inc., Robert Half International, Timken Co. and Waste Management.
"We are certainly proud to be named one of the 2013 World's Most Ethical Companies," Lee McIntire, chairman and CEO of CH2M HILL, said in a statement. "This is a tribute to our employees who, in today's complex, global business environment, are making honorable choices."

Stratos was one of the figures i never intended on getting because I didn't like him. However, for some reason after seeing the TRU version I decided I wanted him and his regular version too. I've been watching the original series, just got the complete set , and found myself wondering what he'd look like under there? I do however prefer the MYP voice, which brings me to what I thought he'd look like. While in our library I found this staring at me and I thought of course, Stratos!
What you think he'd look like? I know we'll never get one, but what would you like?

KASU to treat supporters to jazz concert
JONESBORO, Ark. — KASU, Arkansas State University's public radio service, is inviting its financial supporters to a jazz concert in Riceland Hall at Fowler Center, Oct. 18 at 7 p.m., featuring the Arkansas Jazz All-Stars. The group includes the Claudia Burson Trio, a piano, bass and percussion combo from Fayetteville, and trumpeter Gary Gazaway and his wife, vocalist Lisa Ahia of Pocahontas. The complimentary concert is the station's way of thanking its contributors.
Supporters of KASU include individual listeners, known as members, who make financial contributions to the station, and underwriters – businesses that receive on-air recognition in exchange for sponsorship. The station conducts two membership drives each year and the 2013 fall drive is in progress October 12-23.
Members and underwriters received free tickets to the concert enclosed in the October "Wavelengths," the station's newsletter. The ticket entitles any KASU member to bring an unlimited number of guests. KASU Program Director Marty Scarbrough said, "Riceland Hall will seat about 900 music lovers and we want to fill as many of those seats as possible with people who appreciate great jazz provided by one of Arkansas' premier musical alliances."
On the night of the Arkansas Jazz All-Stars concert, KASU patrons should show up at Riceland Hall with their mailed tickets and accompanied by their designated guests. Members will be asked to sign in at the entrance. KASU Development Director Mark Smith said, "Anyone who becomes a new member by pledging during our current fall drive can attend the concert with guests. We'll have a list of the new members at the Riceland Hall entrance so just check in with us."
A 1975 A-State alumnus, Gary Gazaway is the friend of musicians all over the United States and in Latin America where he has lived, performed and recorded. He has played trumpet on stage and in the studio with legendary North American music figures in rock, rhythm-and-blues and country. Gazaway's musical associations in Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay and Puerto Rico include some of the best-known names in jazz-fusion, mambo, salsa and Afro-Cuban sounds. His musician friends from Latin America fondly bestowed the nickname "El Büho," which means "The Owl" in English, upon him.
While Gazaway lived and performed in Hawaii, he met his wife Lisa Ahia, the daughter of Samuel Ahia, one of Hawaii's premier jazz guitarists and Polynesian entertainers. She enjoys singing from the "Great American Songbook," the timeless canon of popular songs with melodies and lyrics created by superb songwriters of the 1930s-1950s ranging from George Gershwin to Johnny Mercer.
KASU station manager Mike Doyle observed, "Since Gary and Lisa moved back to Pocahontas, they have developed a strong local fan base performing for KASU Bebopalooza, Blue Monday and Jazz Thursday events, the Jonesboro Public Library's lawn concerts and at private functions throughout northeast Arkansas.
"Anyone who hears Lisa's rich voice and Gary's virtuoso trumpet skills wants to find out where and when they can hear them again. When I think of Gary and Lisa joining with the Claudia Burson Trio on the Riceland stage, I can imagine a concert that will be unforgettable for its superb quality."'
The Claudia Burson trio, northwest Arkansas' premier jazz combo, is in high demand for major events such as the 2011 grand opening of the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art and is a regular favorite at local nightspots in the Fayetteville-Springdale-Bentonville metro area.
KASU presents jazz programming six nights a week on 91.9 FM and streaming at www.kasu.org. Other musical programs on nights and weekends include classical, Celtic, folk, Americana, blues, bluegrass, rockabilly, rhythm and blues and world music with local and syndicated hosts.
For additional information, contact Doyle at (870) 972-3070 or e-mail him at email@example.com.
