Canton, Ohio (CNN) - Apparently "Etch-a-Sketch" is the campaign gift that keeps on giving.
Nearly seven months after the children's toy entered the 2012 political lexicon, Vice President Joe Biden has continued to use the line on the stump - often with a fresh shake.

Case in point: as Biden campaigned in Ohio Monday, he referenced a claim first leveled by President Obama - that Romney's $5 trillion tax plan amounts to a "sketchy deal."
"As vice president, it's not my job, nor am I inclined to correct the president," Biden joked. "But in this case I am. [Romney's] plans aren't sketchy - they're Etch-a-Sketchy."
And then, Biden added a biting twist.
"They're like shaking that little tablet out there. It's underway guys. We are seeing the remaking of Mitt Romney right before our eyes."
The vice president leveled the charge in front of a crowd of nearly 900 people in Canton. The event was his first of five events over three days in the Buckeye State – a critical battleground. During one of the appearances, on Tuesday, Biden will make a rare, joint campaign appearance with the president in Dayton.
Although the Obama campaign has recently claimed Romney's economic plan is not mathematically possible, the Romney campaign has argued that it is.
"It is mathematically possible," Romney running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan, said in his debate with Biden, echoing similar sentiments from Romney.
The Romney campaign has also repeatedly denied that Romney is recasting himself and has said the candidate has been consistent in his positions.

Liberals love how Hussein Obama outsources with tax payers money (Petrobras).
The list for Obama's inconsistencies would be much longer and that's just if we count the death of Ambassador Stevens. Obama is a shameless, narcissistic, incompetent fool. His vice president is a slow-witted closet racist. The Democratic Party's worst mistake was in allowing him a chance at a second term instead of someone much more capable and deserving like Hillary Clinton. I mailed in my ballot for Romney. I chose the lesser of two evils.
But mittens flipflops on evey issue, and his timing and locations are oh so convenient, he is a liar, and a tax cheat, not a goodchoice for tax reform. borderless, would you hire more emloyees if you got a tax break, even if you dont need them?
Hey Joe – Hate to be a bearer of bad tidings, but Robme HAS to move to the Middle – or else he's history. And even a little bit to the left, and since he changes so much – IF ( and I repeat, IF ) he makes it , he will end up catering to whomever groups or lobbyists that is in front of him, at the time. I mean, this guy will do anything, or say anything to get votes, period. LOL – – Makes the Voters wonder how will the GOP EVER , and I mean Ever get elected Again, (and I really mean ever) The GOP had better move to the middle within the next 4 years, when it's time for their primaries again, otherwise, we will end up getting a Democrat, or somebody like Romney, who will say that they are conservative, but are really Not.
May the Best Man Win – – 2012
Hillary – 2016 ( with a "surplus" in – 2018 )
Now why is it that.....Romney is talking about the issues and Biden and Obama iare talking about Romney. The tiny surpless that was left in the Clinton Adminstration was a result of the Republician Congress holding Clinton to the fire.
You don't like the Economy? It was the Liberal's that gave it too us. Obama has no plan to fix anything but tax the so-called rich. With no one hiring until Obama Care is repealed the tax base will continue to flounder. But hey, it's your vote! Let's see how it all works out if Whats-His-Name is Re-Elected..
"In the Obama/Biden world...............the only thing that makes sense is to raise taxes". You forgot to add on the rich.
Apparently the same is true in the Ben Stein world – "We have to raise taxes (on the wealthy), there is no way
around it".
He is, of course, one of the darlings of Faux News, and the Three Stooges were shocked, I say, shocked.
You are correct Mr. Vice President. The twit has changed more than a chameleon in the last decade Nd since 1994 when he was pro choice then he wasn't and then he was and now he isn't. He was anti NRA and now he isn't.
I don't know what's scarier that this guy doesn't know what he will say or think from one day to another or that he could be our next president and take the country to he11 because if you thought the shrub #43 was a war criminal this self appointed king of Kolob who thinks he is worthy of the presidency is 100 times worse.
I get you $10k if I had it. Must be pocket change for him and his $100 bills.
The talking points are REALLY stale. CNN knows that. Why are they repeating it?
Eveyone who asks " are you better off than you were four years ago?.. well, lets see, my stock market investments nearly doubled, went from losing hundreds of thousands of jobs a month, banks teeterng on collapse, just a few off the top, butni think its af
Eveyone who asks " are you better off than you were four years ago?.. well, lets see, my stock market investments nearly doubled, went from losing hundreds of thousands of jobs a month, banks teeterng on collapse, just a few off the top, butni think its Safe to say yes much better off
Romney's mitting and twitting, and etching & sketching in foreign affairs and military affairs could bring back the cold war syndrome to Americans & the World at large. Romney/Ryan criticism of the great work done in foreign and military affairs by Obama and his team is shallow, parochial, and selfishly politically partisan. For Romney/Ryan the means justify the ends. They see only negatives no positives. We are sick of their negativity, distortions and untruth in our domestic, military and international affairs.
A "re-make" or a "re-model" ultimately ends and a final product is revealled. The problem with (and for) Mr. Romney is the process never ends. He's for some abortions and then he's against them, then for them again; he's for tax cuts to the rich, then against them, then for them again; he's for bombing Iran, then not, then again, and so on, over and over. As a candidate he's got all positions and none all at once. This is a man with no core, none whatsoever. More fightening is that his supporters JUST DON'T CARE- they want to win and it doesn't matter that their guy is a total narcsistic flake. He has no plans, he just "wants" to be President.
its very interesting to see how dumb you guys are .. you think by having Romney your country will be in better shape? the same men who said 47% are takers and doesnt matter- i guess both Borderless and Hussain Obama are the 5% of Romney clan (aka rich people) or unless your using foodstamps and unemployment money.. which one? i know for sure you are NOT the 5% Romney clan.. so buckle up and wait for a disaster to happen. which is coming with Romney. You are going to have a constant lie from Romney and Ryan. i guess you are also those liars... who constantly lie about everything.. good job.. keep it up and will see a better america ( uneducated, stupid, dumb like you both).
Borderless, the only inconsistencies the republicans have found thus far is Obama's stance on gay marriage. The rest is the usual conservative talking points that can be found on many websites that promote the conservative agenda.
However, Romney's inconsistencies are not the product of liberal talking points. Rather, they are a collection of Romney's statements made thru the years. Romney will hardly ever admit to having a difference in opinion. He states that he was always one way or the other and completely disavows the previous statement.
And I guess on Conservative Island, "put y'all back in chains" is somehow worse than "black folks need to stop looking of a check and start looking for a job".
Not even a nice try.....
Romney needs "your children" to go to war in Iran, while his children sit on the sidelines at home and watch.
Four and The Door-
When in doubt, repeat the lie, eh?
The economy has grown; the market is almost back to where it was when the "Bush Crash" occurred; 5 million jobs created; more new construction; more exports.
Sure for you guys, a terrible economy might make your sorry candidate look better, but seeing as all he wants to do is go back to the Bush days and slather the rich with more tax cuts, things would have to be worse on a grander scale.
Your guy starts with an additional $7 trillion deficit that he simply cannot get away from- but hey, give him a few minutes and he'll say something else!

"I supported the assault weapon ban." – Mitt Romney
"I don't support any gun control legislation." – Mitt Romney
I've been calling it kaleidoscoping for years. The new term, born in 2012, is called Etch A Sketch. I think the latter is more fitting for Romney as it is suggestive of a sudden, drastic change, instead of a slow gradual one.
And with two weeks left before the election, Obama STILL hasn't stated what his plans are for a second term. NO plans, no solutions, just attacks and demonization. Come to think of it, that was his entire first term as well. He just carried it into his campaign.
Four more years of this dangerous and lawless President and this country will be well on its way to becoming a Banana Republic dictatorship.
I'll take a serious Romney/Ryan ticket before laughing boy Biden any day. The very fact that Obama chose him shows how pitiful and weak a leader Obama is. Now with the coverup in Benghazi this little celebrity endeavor is ended. Oabam has done nothing for the economy, he's over-regulated anywhere he could not Congress to legislate in his favor, and now his house-of-cards foreign policy is crumbling. The fact that Castro, Putin, and Chavez have all endorsed Obama for President should tell us something.

Denver Post's "Amazing Aging Expo," a gold mine of free seminars
What roof will you be living under when you're 64? 74? 84? How will you pay for it? Will it treat your knees and hips and ankles kindly, or trip you up when you least expect it? Is that "Silver Sneakers" program really going to keep you fit into your 80s?
It's not that often that a free event has 35 seminars with answers to questions like this. But the Post's "Amazing Aging Expo" on Saturday (Sept. 28) at the Mariott Denver Tech Center does. In addition to the expo's more than 100 exhibitors, the seminars tackle topics such as "What to do when you don't know what to do: Options for Aging Parents," "Outsmarting Investment Fraud," and "Aging, Conditioning and Fall Prevention."

BAKU, Azerbaijan, Oct. 12 (UPI) -- British energy company BP said it was working closely with its partners in Azerbaijan to address production issues at the Azeri-Chirag-Gunashli oil field.
Azerbaijan was critical of BP's work in the giant offshore complex in the Caspian Sea. Production during the first half of the year was down 12 percent compared to 2011. Azerbaijan's President Ilham Aliyev said the situation at the field was "unacceptable."
A BP spokesman, in a statement sent to the Platts news service, said the company valued its partnerships in Azerbaijan.
"We are fully committed to Azerbaijan," the spokesman said. "We are working with the State Oil Company of Azerbaijan Republic to address ACG production issues as quickly as possible."
Aliyev told lawmakers ACG production has been in decline since at least 2008. He said production levels started to suffer when a 2008 deal gave Azerbaijan greater control over the complex.
BP serves as the operator of the ACG oil complex. It also manages the offshore Shah Deniz natural gas field, seen as a major potential source for European energy consumers.

Restaurants like Chef Tatung's require commitment: one, they're usually off the beaten track, thus extra effort must be made to fit them into one's schedule; and two, the food they serve requires a bit of mental tweaking on the part of the eater. More on this later.
Of course I've read all the press about Chef Tatung (aka Myke Sarthou) and his restaurant has always been on my radar. My Bin and I are nowhere near the area and were it not for frantic texts to a friend who's been here frequently, we might never have found the place. So when we finally arrive, we order 10 dishes to make it worth the trip.
It's 2pm and what a welcome surprise to learn that they're open all the way through from lunch til dinner. Lucky us and even more fortunate is that Chef Tatung is around. He's so jovial, delightfully talkative. "I really thought you'd be a snob," I muse. "You seem so reserved in all your photos." He immediately adopts a snooty air. "Oh, I'm really a snob talaga," he says affectedly. Then he winks and we erupt in gales of laughter.
The restaurant is an ancestral home that Chef Tatung still lives in today. The interiors are a throwback to a romantic, albeit more retro time of sturdy wooden tables, capiz windows, and distinctive art work lining the walls. How wonderful that we have the place to ourselves, free to roam and gaze. "This place is more beautiful at night," Chef Tatung says, gesturing to the garden. "We light everything up." Perhaps, but I say that the place is breathtaking now bathed in the mid-afternoon light. The garden is evidently well-maintained, verdant plants whose leaves sway in the gentle breeze.
When the chef-owner is present, I like to leave my meal in his hands. The menu bewilders and bewitches in its expansive variety. The former because there's just so much to choose from, and the latter because everything just seems so good. We excitedly discuss some of his suggestions but I express disappointment that the Honey Glazed Slow-Roasted Pork Belly (P400) was devoured last night. It's not like they can just whip one up either, since it roasts for six hours. For that alone, a return trip is necessary.
The Chicken Sisig In Lettuce Wraps (P200) reminds me – though I know not why – of Chef Laudico's Sisig in Crispy Cups. Chef Tatung's version however, is made of minced chicken kicked up with chilies and onions, and somewhere in there, taro chips. The mango sauce is an inspired touch, but oh, how messy this appetizer is to eat! I attempt to use my hands but the lettuce wilts and everything falls. It's very tasty though and the accompanying vinegar sauce, sharp and bitey, really makes this a star of a starter.
We're eager for the Seafood Gising-Gising (P240) but as enthusiastically as this dish is recommended, I feel like the interpretation is lost on us. The coconut milk is too thick, almost paste-like, coating the ingredients in glop. The whole thing feels like chop suey, and not a palatable one at that, at least not for me.
The Gising-Gising does taste better when paired with something else, like the Butterflied Tilapia (P320). I've always marveled at how cooks manage this edible miracle, slicing the fish so that it splays open when fried, appearing like it wants to dive (or fly!) back into the sea. For me, fried anything is delicious and I'm intrigued with its tamarind glaze, a sweet-sour accent. But my Bin isn't too hot about the fish's "muddy", overly "fishy" flavor which he says is emphasized by the tamarind's sourness. Ah, differing opinions.
We further differ in our impressions of the Lengua Adobo (P340), one of the dishes that Chef Tatung is famous for, apparently even non-Filipinos love this. It's a classic adobo cooked with paombong (palm) vinegar to which green olives and roasted garlic heads are added. This dish is an example of food that requires an open mind. I like the sauce very much – dark and glossy, it coats the tongue and its sourness kicks the throat as it slides down. But I feel that it's too assertive, acidic even, for the lengua with its smooth texture and excessive tenderness. On the other hand, my Bin likes the lengua but doesn't care for the sauce. "This is not what I consider adobo," he reasons. But when it comes to Filipinos and their adobo, there will never be a consensus; there may be more versions of adobo than there are Filipinos.
Every plate is decorated with these vivid, deep blue flowers that I learn are called ternate flowers. They're only about 2 inches long and have light yellow markings. Edible, they're used in Asian cuisines for flavor and coloring.
Because it's available today (it isn't always), Chef Tatung serves us a refresher, a drink between courses. It's coconut sap, or fresh tuba. A coconut wine that looks and tastes almost like buko but upon swallowing, there's a mild alcoholic kick that spreads then ceases almost as quickly as it starts. Just a touch sweet, it does its job of wiping our palate clean and ready for the food to follow.
We are tasting and thinking and eating some more. Chef Tatung knows his strengths, playing up local ingredients with a global attitude. Though he defines his food as home cooking, his execution of each dish is exceptional and very well thought out, truly a very talented chef.
My Bin likes the Shrimp Okoy (P140) very much. The meld of tiny shrimp and vegetables crunch loudly. It's a stark symphony to the vinegar sauce, which kills the cloy, making us want the next bite and the next.
The Chicken Leg Relyeno (P340) is clever. And cheeky. Chicken legs or drumsticks look unusually plump until they're cut into and all is revealed. The leg has been deboned, its meat minced and mixed with spices and then stuffed right back into the leg casing to assume its rightful shape. It tastes like a delicious chicken sausage with grace notes of lemongrass. This is lovely with the accompanying atchara or the more traditional dips of ketchup and an Asian sweet chili sauce.
Oh dessert – er, desserts, how I'm ready for you! "You want camote cheesecake? It's not on the menu but it's available," Chef Tatung offers. I love all root crops – "tubers", we were made to call them back in culinary school. The orange type of camote, the sweetest of our native varieties, is mixed in with some cream cheese, its muted orange glow looking and tasting like caramel, believe it or not. It's so fine that the tuber's characteristic bits are almost indiscernible, but not quite. They provide a nubby counterpoint to the silkiness of the white cheesecake below. Mmm, who would've thought that a cheesecake (P140), much less a camote one would work? But work, it does.
Who wouldn't want a Warm Tsoknut Chocolate Cake (P80)? Whichever way you string those words, it's a winner, guaranteed. Chef Tatung says it's a no-brainer dessert and I agree. Molten, melting middle with a Tsoknut cascade? I wish the cake were a bit more moist, perhaps plop the little cake in a pool of tsoknut sabayon, but that's just me thinking aloud.
My Bin and I almost get into a little argument over the Fresh Fruit Halo-Halo (P140). This summer cooler is a convincing argument for fresh fruit in halo-halo – it doesn't leave me feeling bloated after inhaling (almost!) the entire portion and my Bin loves the large sago. So: fresh pineapple, bananas, mangoes, cornflakes (I believe those are so), and a smattering of toasted, grated coconut. Familiar ingredients all, but newly reinterpreted. And oh, what a genius it is to top the lot off with gata ice cream, made by a friend of Chef Tatung. Gotta love that friend, and gotta love this halo-halo.

Health, Wellness and the Adult with Autism
First published on January 16, 2012.
These days, when one hears "Healthcare," political strife is often the first thing that comes to mind. As a nation, we are concerned about making quality healthcare accessible and affordable. What most people discover is that managing changing health issues over a lifespan is ultimately left to the individual patient, regardless of who is paying the bills. For families with an autistic member, managing health and wellness can be doubly difficult. Parents of teens or young adults with ASD are inevitably faced with their own decline in health in addition to the ongoing care of their adult child. Fostering independence in this area can provide some relief, but there is much to consider when building the skill set necessary to enable the ASD patient to become an active participant in overseeing personal mental and physical well-being over the course of a lifetime.
Comorbid Conditions
Comorbidity is the simultaneous occurrence of two or more independent clinical diagnoses. When comorbidity occurs, it can become necessary to treat both conditions. Utilizing multiple interventions can be problematic for a host of reasons, not the least of which is the subsequent difficulty in determining the efficacy of any one treatment. Typical conditions often diagnosed with ASD include, but are not limited to:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Epilepsy
- Nonverbal Learning Disorder
- Fragile X Sydrome
- Tourette Syndrome
- Gastrointestinal issues
- Sensory Issues
Often the biggest challenge in accurately diagnosing comorbid conditions is teasing out which symptoms should rightfully be classified under a separate diagnosis, and what is part of the ASD diagnosis itself. (Sally Ozonoff, Professor-in-Residence in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at UC Davis MIND Institute, provides an overview of the complexities of correct diagnosis in a lecture given at the 2008 Summer Institute on Neurodevelopmental Disorders.) An important consideration to keep in mind when it comes to diagnosis is that while treatment of symptoms may not change, a diagnosis might. The source for clinical diagnosis, "The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders" (DSM), is reviewed and revised on an ongoing basis. The new revision, "DSM-V," is due for publication in May 2013 and is expected to contain changes which will inform the diagnosing of ASD.
Sensory issues that so frequently accompany an ASD diagnosis can make for a picky eater. While this might be combated by the caring persistence of parents and caregivers, as adulthood approaches, so does independence when it comes to food choices. An adult on the autism spectrum may not have the skills necessary to create healthy home-cooked meals. Or perhaps just as likely, may not have the impulse control required to limit the amount of nights per week that the pizza delivery man arrives.
Without establishing healthy eating habits, the adult with ASD could be at risk of obesity. Conversely, there is also a risk of being underweight or undernourished as a result of a limited diet. Eating habits are behavioral in nature, and changing those behaviors is rarely accomplished without support. When you break it down, engaging in healthy eating habits isn't as simple as it may seem. It takes the acquisition of a variety of skills such as grocery shopping and food preparation, understanding nutrition basics and safe food handling, and utilizing decision-making skills when it comes to determining what's for dinner. Many of us take for granted the multitude of processes we go through every day simply to feed our bodies. A good diet is essential to good health. Developing the skills and habits required to support a good diet should be carefully attended to and forged in such a way that they become the norm rather than a source of constant battle.
Good eating habits aren't the only healthy habits in need of honing. Exercise and hygiene are also important components of one's well-being. As healthy eating choices can and should become a habit, so too should physical activity and daily hygiene routines. Healthcare shouldn't be solely about what to do when one gets sick. Instead, it should be about creating simple habits that stave off illness to begin with.
Medication Management
There is a plethora of medications used to treat autism and comorbid conditions which many patients have found to be enormously beneficial. However, as the ASD child becomes an adult, the question of who will manage medications becomes extremely important, especially given the potential health risk involved in incorrect medication usage. The adult with ASD striving towards independence will need to manage prescription refills and maintain the proper dosing schedule. This may be quite the challenge for someone with an executive function disorder. Depending on the living arrangements, parents may be routinely assisting their child by ensuring refills are available when needed, making appointments with prescribing practitioners when necessary, and prompting for daily dosing routines. This support will eventually need to be transferred to either the adult child or to support staff. This may feel like an enormous leap of faith for many parents.
The proper administration of medications may be a sizable, but not the sole, concern. The long-term side effects of many of the drugs typically prescribed to the ASD population are not always known. For example, antipsychotics are often prescribed to minimize aggression, self-injury, and mood changes. Some of the documented side effects for certain drugs in this category include hyperglycemia, breast milk production, increased level of fats in the blood, and liver problems. While the drugs may be effective in treating the behaviors for which they are prescribed, the resulting side effects such as high cholesterol and lactation may result in the need for additional medications, which in turn can result in additional side effects. Understanding and managing the side effects of medication can be the great unknown. Compounding the difficulty in assessing potential complications is that these drugs are often prescribed "off-label," which means that the prescription is treating something other than what the drug was primarily developed to do. It then stands to reason that long-term side effects for off-label prescriptions could be underreported. Understanding the interplay between medications and side effects can often allow for better preparation for potential health issues down the road.
Informed Practitioners
In August 2009, Massachusetts General Hospital received $29 million in gift funds for the purpose of creating one of the nation's first comprehensive programs to provide specialized medical care to adults with autism. The Lurie Center for Autism is under the umbrella of the MassGeneral Hospital for Children. The recent creation of this center indicates, in part, that healthcare practitioners and administrators have only just begun to focus on transition from pediatric care to adult care for the ASD patient. Other nationally known hospitals are announcing centers for pediatric transition of all patients, not specifically those with ASD. While progress has begun, the task of leading the way to healthcare transition is currently in the hands of parents, caregivers and patients. Increasing numbers of practitioners may be developing an understanding of ASD in children, but it is much less likely that an adult primary care staff will have received training regarding autism in adults.
Behavior Management
As independence grows, so does the need for certain behaviors necessary for that independence. As a young adult becomes responsible for her own healthcare, it may well be a challenge even to know when to seek medical attention. There may be avoidance behaviors centered around doctor's visits in general. Communication may be an issue as the adult with autism begins to visit health care professionals independently. Additionally, if a doctor writes a prescription, will the patient have the skills necessary to retain that prescription, submit the prescription to a pharmacist, and self-administer the medication as prescribed?
Technology may be one means to help overcome some of the behavior barriers to independent health management. For instance, electronic medical records might limit the need for completing a medical history form. Electronic pillboxes can monitor and prompt dosing schedules. It's even possible for these pillboxes to notify a caregiver by email when a patient has missed a dose. While technology can assist with certain behavioral interventions, it certainly can't solve everything. If a patient doesn't want to go to a doctor, it may well be that nothing can replace good old-fashioned hand-holding.
Funding Wellness and Medical Care
In a study published The Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine in 2007, "The Lifetime Distribution of the Incremental Societal Costs of Autism," author Michael L. Ganz examined the lifespan fiscal impact of autism in the United States. Ganz concluded that:
Although autism is typically thought of as a disorder of childhood, its costs can be felt well into adulthood. The substantial costs resulting from adult care and lost productivity of both individuals with autism and their parents have important implications for those aging members of the baby boom generation approaching retirement, including large financial burdens affecting not only those families but also potentially society in general. These results may imply that physicians and other care professionals should consider recommending that parents of children with autism seek financial counseling to help plan for the transition into adulthood.
The results of Ganz's study indicate that direct medical costs are estimated to be $305,956 over a 66-year lifespan of an individual with autism. It is well documented that adults with autism earn far less income than the average population. Federal law allows employers to pay disabled employees less than minimum wage, if the disability limits productivity. It's hard to see how someone earning less than minimum wage would be able to afford more than $300,000 in direct medical costs over a lifetime.
If a young adult is covered by a parent's private health insurance policy, it is important to understand the age limitations for dependent coverage. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act permits dependent coverage until age 26. What happens when the young adult exceeds the age threshold for dependent coverage? Medicaid is government-funded health insurance for qualifying adults with disabilities and limited financial resources. Medicaid is a combined federal/state benefit, which means that application procedures vary from state to state. It is important to consider Medicaid options well before an autistic adult turns 26, even if a parent's policy provides coverage. A gap in health insurance for someone with autism could easily become a fiscal nightmare.
Dealing with the administration of health insurance claims is an arduous task for anyone. The challenge of sorting through the red tape and understanding "patient's obligation for payment" grows exponentially when the patient is learning disabled as well. A system for dealing with these and other household administration tasks is a crucial independent living skill. Whether it's the patient or a trusted caregiver that deals with this paperwork, a succinct "home administration" system and a systematic monitoring of the process by the parent should be well thought out.
The Wisdom of Forethought
There are many factors impacting the health of an adult on the autism spectrum that go far beyond basic diet and exercise concerns most adults face. As parents begin to plan for the inevitability of being unable to care for their children themselves, it is important to assess what healthcare responsibilities are realistic to turn over to the adult ASD patient, and where additional supports will be necessary. Guardianship, housing, and employment issues may all have an influence on health matters as well. As with all things autistic, there is no one answer for all patients. But failure to develop a well thought-out and realistic plan can be a devastating oversight.

The Power of Internships
Internships enable students to explore career options, pursue academic interests or personal passions, and acquire practical work experience before they start looking for a job.
Profiles | Beyond the Classroom
Internships also make them more competitive applicants for employment. Research conducted by the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) showed that 61 percent of students who had an internship also had a job offer in hand when they graduated in 2011.
The College is working with alumni and parents to expand the network of businesses and organizations that welcome internship applications from Middlebury students. Many businesses provide a modest salary to help interns with living expenses, but nonprofit organizations generally do not. (More than 60 percent of the internships held by Middlebury students during the summer of 2010 were unpaid.)
Many students cannot afford to forego a paying summer job in favor of an unpaid internship. The Center for Careers and Internships has some gift funds to support unpaid summer internship opportunities but currently can fund fewer than half of the students who apply for funds. This past summer, 90 students received funding for unpaid internships.

From Thunderbolt to Robots: Apple cast a big shadow over CES 2012Apple didn't need to pay for a booth at the Las Vegas Consumer Electronics Show this week to make a big impression; the company's products and technologies were visible everywhere, from third party demos to its competitors' future roadmaps.
A wide range of trade show exhibitors at CES made heavy use of Macs and iOS devices, a big shift from previous years where, even at the Apple-centric Macworld Expo, third parties often demonstrated their products primarily using Windows PCs.
Segments of the CES exhibit halls were dedicated to iOS devices, or other markets dominated (or well represented) by Apple products acting as a host for third party apps, devices, accessories or services, a reflection of the growing presence of Macs and iOS devices among consumers in general.
From the GlobalVCard virtual credit card transaction system being demonstrated on an iPad 2 using video mirroring to video surveillance systems with iPad and iPhone clients such as the Withings "Smart Baby" monitor (the company also demonstrated a Smart Baby scale and builds WiFi BMI scales and an iOS blood pressure monitor) to the BigC Dino-Lite digital microscope shown attached to a MacBook, Apple's devices were visible everywhere. That's in part, no doubt, because Apple's gear has a fit and finish that makes it well suited to demonstrate.
Made for iOS, Mac
Other appearances of Macs, iPads and iPhones were exclusive, ranging from iOS docks and accessories spanning from pico projectors and 3D projection devices to dye sublimation printers (using Bluetooth, not AirPlay) to remote control helicopters and model cars outfitted with cameras and controlled via apps.
Small developer Catalyst Lifestyle demonstrated its $69.99 EscapeCapsule, a waterproof case customized for iPhone 4 and 4S to protect the device from "water, rain, snow, sand, mud, scratches and anything else you can throw at it," and capable of keeping it dry even submerged a few feet under water.
On the Mac side, accessories developer Belkin was showing off its new Thunderbolt Express Dock, a $299 unit that connects to 2011 model year Macs via Thunderbolt.
Similar to Apple's own Thunderbolt Display, it makes available three USB 2.0 ports, one Firewire 800 port, one HDMI port for video output, one 3.5mm Audio port, one Gigabit Ethernet port and two Thunderbolt ports (one upstream and one downstream) for daisy-chaining to another Thunderbolt compatible device.
While Intel is hoping to bring its Thunderbolt interconnect to general PCs later this year, Apple embraced the new technology a year ago and rapidly rolled out support for it across its entire product line of Macs that previously lacked PCIe expansion capabilities.

text: I am not a fan of the fussy wedding cake. I have made wedding cakes that have been covered with embossed cut outs and hundreds of roses, but the ones that I simply love the look of, are the simpler cakes. I think that it is a real test of one's cake making skill to make a cake that is plain and does not have hundreds of adornments that can be used to cover u any imperfections. When the lines are clean and plain, it is only the fundamental skill of the creator that is on show. I'm not saying that making sugar flowers etc is not a skill. Of course it is. A wonderful skill certainly, but personally, I want to be able to get the basics perfect before I move on to the 'fluff'. Straight sides, level, nice corners. All mercilessly on display with nowhere to hide. And I like it 🙂 What do you think?

I just wanted to drop a line to say how much I enjoyed the course. After working for the Railroad for 35 years and attending countless safety courses, rule classes etal, it was so nice to see a well run yet casual class. Thanks for getting me off on the right foot, or in my case left. Your 60 yr. student Laurence (Larry) Cable.

From I Want My MTV by Craig Marks and Rob Tannenbaum.
MICK KLEBER: "Too Legit to Quit" was based on a book I was reading, Joseph Campbell's Hero with a Thousand Faces, about the structure of the monomyth that supposedly was the basis for the Star Wars trilogy, and now virtually every movie in Hollywood. So we structured "Too Legit" on the typical hero's journey, which in this case is Hammer being called by the mentor, James Brown, to retrieve "the glove," which is obviously a reference to Michael Jackson. Then he and his dancers are transported in a flying globe to a concert hall. For one of the big auditorium shots, we actually had a crane on top of a crane. And sometime during that segment Hammer descends in an elevator into a fiery abyss, where he's joined by more dancers.


text: Our Eye Pencils are formulated to be worn on the inner rim of the eye or along the lash line. Swipe our Black, Navy, Dark Brown, Smoke or Khaki along the inner rim for a precisely defined eye, or apply outside of the lash line and buff out for a sultry, smokey look. Our one of a kind Clarifier pencils are used on the inner rim of the eye to brighten and widen. As a rule, Light is great for fair-medium skin tones and Medium is great for medium-dark skin tones, but many of our clients have both - Medium for subtle definition and Light for more drama. Clarifiers are also great for highlighting under the brow and as a spot concealer in a pinch!

A new scam is reportedly spreading on Facebook, which claims that you can play Mario Kart on Facebook for free. This is click-jacking and like-jacking scam, which also offers you to complete some online surveys.
The scam is titled Play Mario Kart on Facebook!and has the following description – "Play Mario Kart on Facebook with your Friends! Join the multiplayer mayhem NOW! Click here to play". Please avoid clicking on the scam link, and DO NOT share the message on your Facebook Wall. It is also reported that the scam message has been spreading via private messages.
Clicking on the scam link will take you to a bogus webpage which contains a link that urges you join the game by clicking on the "Play Now" button. Clicking the button link will click-jack and like-jack your Facebook account, and will automatically posting the message and "like" it. Alongside, it also asks you to complete the following online surveys in order to continue playing the game –
Please DO NOT complete any surveys. All these are fake links and might result in downloading malware programs on you computer. These malware programs are designed to gather user information and user credentials like credit card numbers, which are then sent to the scammer. Scammers are paid money to generate traffic or get users to complete such online surveys.

Pattern Close Out Sale
The first thing to do once the decision is made to start a business is to think of a name. Right? Well, I brainstormed and asked my family for suggestions of course. I love vintage, so Nostalgic seemed like a good choice, but apparently I was wrong. After about a year of heavy use, it was clear to me that the name was just not going to work out. No one understood the word, or seemed to know how to spell it. For others, it had a negative vibe to it, even if vintage style has become popular.
Now the problem is, I have a few patterns printed that have the Nostalgic logo on them that I need to get rid of. My solution is to sell them at 40% off, which is only $6. There are only a few left, and time is limited. Everyone has until December 8, 2009, at which time the site will go offline and I'll say goodbye to Nostalgic forever.
Please, give these orphan patterns a good home!

Democrat Joe Neguse, son of African immigrants, runs for secretary of state
Secretary of state candidate Joe Neguse can count on cheers when he tells Democrats, "I'm the guy running to clean up Scott Gessler's mess."
Those are the first words in a campaign video that will be played at the Colorado Democratic Party assembly in Denver Saturday where he will be officially nominated for the job. Neguse is expected to face Republican Wayne Williams, the El Paso County clerk and recorder, in November. Williams will be nominated at the Colorado Republican Party assembly in Boulder on Saturday.
The video looks at Neguse's life — he's the son of African immigrants who moved to this country in the early 1980s. Neguse also praised by Pueblo Clerk Bo Ortiz and state Sen. Pat Steadman. The word 'integrity is used at least three times.
Gessler opted against a second term, and is instead running for governor. His tenure at the secretary of state's office has been rocky at times, but he argues he's just doing his job and the left doesn't like it.

Investors may be tracking certain levels on shares of Force Commodities Ltd (4CE.AX). The current 50-day Moving Average is 0.02, the 200-day Moving Average is 0.03, and the 7-day is noted at 0.04. Moving averages can help spot trends and price reversals. They may also be used to help find support or resistance levels. Moving averages are considered to be lagging indicators meaning that they confirm trends. A certain stock may be considered to be on an uptrend if trading above a moving average and the average is sloping upward. On the other side, a stock may be considered to be in a downtrend if trading below the moving average and sloping downward.
Traders may be relying in part on technical stock analysis. Force Commodities Ltd (4CE.AX) currently has a 14-day Commodity Channel Index (CCI) of 85.27. Despite the name, CCI can be used on other investment tools such as stocks. The CCI was designed to typically stay within the reading of -100 to +100. Traders may use the indicator to determine stock trends or to identify overbought/oversold conditions. A CCI reading above +100 would imply that the stock is overbought and possibly ready for a correction. On the other hand, a reading of -100 would imply that the stock is oversold and possibly set for a rally.
At the time of writing, the 14-day ADX for Force Commodities Ltd (4CE.AX) is 61.55. Many technical chart analysts believe that an ADX value over 25 would suggest a strong trend. A reading under 20 would indicate no trend, and a reading from 20-25 would suggest that there is no clear trend signal. The ADX is typically plotted along with two other directional movement indicator lines, the Plus Directional Indicator (+DI) and Minus Directional Indicator (-DI). Some analysts believe that the ADX is one of the best trend strength indicators available.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is one of multiple popular technical indicators created by J. Welles Wilder. Wilder introduced RSI in his book "New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems" which was published in 1978. RSI measures the magnitude and velocity of directional price movements. The data is represented graphically by fluctuating between a value of 0 and 100. The indicator is computed by using the average losses and gains of a stock over a certain time period. RSI can be used to help spot overbought or oversold conditions. An RSI reading over 70 would be considered overbought, and a reading under 30 would indicate oversold conditions. A level of 50 would indicate neutral market momentum. The 14-day RSI is currently sitting at 75.78, the 7-day is at 76.40, and the 3-day is spotted at 76.86 for Force Commodities Ltd (4CE.AX).
With equity investing, there will constantly be worries and fears. The volatility in the market that accompanies these fears may trick investors into thinking the next bear market is on the doorstep. During a market-wide sell off, many stocks may experience the pain. Over time, many may gain back the ground they lost and return to previous levels. The biggest names may be the ones to recoup the losses the quickest. However, many investors might get stuck waiting for a rebound that just isn't going to happen. Having the flexibility to adapt to market conditions may help repair a damaged portfolio. Sometimes a readjustment may be needed in order to regain some confidence. As the next round of earnings reports start to come in, investors will be keeping a close watch to see which companies produce the largest surprises, both positive and negative.

Editor's note: A correction was made to this story about the location of the Riversrun location and the property owned by John Rotherham that he is seeking to have annexed into Log Lane Village. The story now has the correct information.
Two medical marijuana centers are one step closer to opening in Log Lane Village.
On Wednesday night, the Log Lane Village Board of Trustees gave final approval to the licenses for Riversrun, LLC and Larsen Group, LLC by adopting the written findings following the June 25 public hearing. Trustee Martha Manion was absent.
The license approvals mean the town will allow the two companies to open dispensaries and cultivate the plant on site, with Riversrun operating at 206 Elm Drive at the old A.L. Halverson Trucking Co. building, and Larsen Group at 130 Maine St. Units B and C, as long as everything is settled with the state.
No dates have been announced for the openings of these establishments, though.
There also likely will be a special Log Lane Board of Trustees meeting on July 30 or not long after that to further the process for the potential annexation of a piece of land along Second Avenue owned by Fort Lupton businessman John Rotherham.
He hopes to open another medical marijuana dispensary there, but he would not be able to do so until the land and building were inside town limits.
The board also heard from Tim Mayberry of auditor Holscher, Mayberry & Co. about the results of the town's 2013 financial audit.
Mayberry said he had "no major concerns" with the audit, but they had done "some cash adjustments," which was normal.
"Financially, the town's in good shape," Mayberry said.
Because the town had about 1.5 years' worth of carry-over money in reserves, he told the trustees they could "loosen the purse strings" for some capital projects.
But he warned against adding any large, recurring operating costs.
In 2013, the town had $297,000 in carry-over money and $212,000 in expenses. But there was less than $10,000 difference between the income and the expenses, Mayberry pointed out, making the operations more of a break-even thing and then reserves offering a cushion.
One of the reasons for this warning was the assumption that the town would have more revenue before long.
"Make sure new revenue is coming in before adding to operating expenses," the auditor told the trustees.
He said they could dip into reserves, but they should be careful until they know more clearly what new revenue will look like.
Mayberry also cautioned the board about keeping up with the requirements of the debt covenants for the water system.
Even if the town becomes flush with cash, there are still requirements for the level of income from water rates and how it funds that debt, he pointed out.
He also advised the board that they are the small town's main line of oversight, since there is only one full-time financial employee, Town Clerk Kim Alva.
"Ask lots of questions," he said. "Kim's doing a good job keeping the books, but she's only one person. Mistakes can happen. You guys as board members are that extra level of control."
But overall, he had no big concerns to pass on to the board.
"Our goal is that your books are a little better each year," Mayberry said.
Other action
The board also:
• Approved spending $5,400 for Kudron Construction of Fort Morgan to install metal roofs on both gazebos in Town Park, as well as work on the south gazebo to replace part of the concrete slab that a tree root had raised up and made unsafe and replace a 4-by-4.
• Approved Town Clerk Kim Alva spending up to $459 on a new printer for the main office at Town Hall; a motion for a bid from Great Copier of Fort Morgan was voted down.
• Heard a presentation from Lydia Kiser of the Northeast Plains Flood Recovery Outreach Team, including information about tornado preparedness and other safety issues.
• Approved the June 11 regular meeting minutes and June 25 special meetings minutes.
• Approved of the June 11 to July 8 payables.
The board also heard from:
• Mayor Ed Parker, who warned that the Marshal's Office is writing tickets to those who did not participate in the Town Cleanup and still have trash and junk in their yards, in violation of the town's Nuisance Ordinance.
• Marshal Fred Cook, who said his office had "chased a stolen car" Tuesday, which was found after 11 p.m. that day; and while Opie tried to track the thieves, the police canine lost their scent. The marshal encouraged town residents to lock their cars.
• And Town Attorney Carmen Beery, who said the "only thing bubbling out there is the possible annexation," which was "on second publication."

'Salvation in Adam's bass...'
The reviews of the new album are coming thick and fast, here's some of the latest.
Blender - 'Great, alienated album from the universe's biggest rock band'
'Moment of Surrender' is the high point - seven minutes of Bono in gospel mode, lost in the late-night city, questing for salvation and finding it in Adam Clayton's bass.'
More here
NME - 'some new tricks, some old tricks'
'the pomp and arrogance of their best work, enough new sounds and interesting new avenues to satisfy the musos and, at its core, is a very good collection of very good songs played very well. A little more silliness would go a long way, though.'
The Times - 'not the best after all, but don't write off U2'
'Cedars of Lebanon takes shape amid a sonic fug that mirrors the exhaustion of its war reporter narrator:'Child drinking dirty water from the riverbank/Soldier brings oranges he got out from a tank.'
Daily Telegraph - 'less a record than an event'
'No Line On The Horizon' is a bold, beautiful and highly speculative re-imagining of U2's music.'
More here
Los Angeles Times - 'down the river toward something different'
'U2's celebration of life has always also been a celebration of itself, and Bono still has a gift for radiating joy in a way that feels inclusive, not egotistical. At the same time, "No Line on the Horizon" is most interesting when the band and its producers let their well-deserved wallowing become a drift down the river toward something different.
"Fez -- Being Born" will only sound experimental to those who haven't heard Eno's other collaborations (he pulls a sample from one, his exquisite 1984 collaboration with Lanois and pianist Harold Budd, "The Pearl," on "Cedars of Lebanon"), but the song's Radiohead-style cutting beats and dusty undertones work productively against the band's instinctive upward thrust.'
More here
Chicago Tribune - 'Once again in transition..'
'The Irish quartet is once again in transition, uncertain of its destination, and producing some fascinating music along the way. Five of the 11 tracks sound as fresh as anything U2 has done in a decade. The rest isn't nearly that good, putting this in the middle tier of the band's dozen studio releases. But at least the band is trying to reconnect with the sense of yearning and mystery that once made it special...
... "Magnificent" lurks in the shadows for a minute, then breaks into a gallop over the Edge's ringing guitar and Clayton's bounding bass. It's a quintessential U2 moment: Big and yet somehow vulnerable. "Moment of Surrender" completes the journey, and lays out one of the album's key themes: "Two souls too smart to be in the realm of certainty." Nothing can be taken for granted. Anxiety hovers like the organ chords draped over Bono's patient vocal melody. Once again Clayton's bass serves as an empathetic foil, standing just off the vocalist's shoulder, answering his every line.'

Reviews from Q, Uncut and MOJO here
Sunday Telegraph - 'fairly breathtaking... possibly their best.'
'...as fresh and vivid as a debut.... a great sounding piece of spectacularly organised, defiantly intimate, sensitively designed and emotionally presented, post-modern showbusiness.'

I have heard (can anyone confirm?) that the voice overs were not originally intended to be included in the movie.
Billy Bob Thornton recorded a narration for the 3+ hour epic under the supervision of director Terence Malick. But the final print of the film has voiceovers by 8 of the main characters in the film; none of the narration from Thornton is in the final print.
some drunk, ugly chick tries to pull down your pants for a quick handjob.
The voice overs suck... they almost ruin the movie.
Why can't I read posts where Bethie, Ginger, Gloria, Thrindle or Vile have awesome dreams about me?
I'd even settle for a dream from Fernando.
