The combo of didactic medieval drama and modern theater usually ends in disaster. Despite their many poetic attractions, popular works like "Everyman" are absolutist works of Christian evangelism — and they resist creative attempts from well-meaning helmers to liberalize them in the theater. But in Johannes von Saaz's "Death and the Ploughman," eloquently translated by Michael West, auteur-director Anne Bogart has found a largely unknown and nicely pliable text from the cusp of the medieval Renaissance that actually probes and questions far more than it sermonizes.
Being from 1401, this is a play about death. Given the dismal life expectancy of the era — and the fatal hazards posed by, say, childbirth — it's no great surprise. But what is remarkable here is the relevance of its anguished howl against mortality.
In essence, the play consists of a regular old Ploughman who has the effrontery to question why Death has shown up to take his perfectly nice wife. The Ploughman wants Death — depicted by Bogart as a fellow in a suit and a bowler hat — to explain himself, dammit.
The style may jar, but that timeless emotion won't be unfamiliar to anyone who has ever lost a loved one. "What wrong have we done you?" the bereft Ploughman asks of Death, which is pretty much the same question posed by multitudes of the bereaved to their shrinks, rabbis, ministers and bottles of Jack Daniels.
"Suffering is the end of love, the end of joy is sorrow," declares Death in reply. "After pleasure comes the loss of pleasure."
No kidding.
Given that this conversation — in various guises and with various digressions — takes up pretty much all of the 90-minute running time of Bogart's latest creation with her SITI Company actors, "Death and the Ploughman" is no laugh riot. It's talky and spare, not so much a play as a long series of arguments. Indeed, what few attempts Bogart makes to instill a grace note or two of humor mainly fall flat.
But if one is up for a 90-minute contemplation of how we cannot change the unassailable fact that we'll all one day be pushing up daisies, "Death and the Ploughman" is rather beguiling. You could argue that all great plays are fundamentally about kicking the bucket: This one just makes no bones about it.
This text and translation first came to notice in 2003 at London's Gate Theater, where it was directed by Deborah Bruce. In London, Death was played by three actors. In Bogart's Classic Stage Company version (which also adds the wife, defunct at 34), he is played by one dude on a mission.
Lord knows, Bogart has a blank physical canvas here. Given the sketchy nature of the dramatic text, one can add or delete characters at will. Not that Bogart lets more finished scripts get in the way of that — she had no problem sticking a Louisville "Miss Julie" inside a wrestling ring.
But the director is at her best when her ideas don't constantly run up against the various preconceptions of a play. Here, she can work with free rein and a trio of typically intense performances from SITI regulars Will Bond, Ellen Lauren and Stephen Webber. As is her wont, Bogart sticks them on what looks like a kind of volleyball court in front of a faux-medieval backdrop.
Lauren looks much less at ease than the two men — both of whom are superb — but then it's tricky playing a dead woman who wasn't intended to be seen or heard. Lauren's presence does at least let the audience see what the argument is about in more human terms (otherwise the play would be all about a woman we never see, as was the case in London). Show us the nature of the loss and the stakes increase.
For most of this show, accompanied by an intense and oblique soundscape from Darron L. West, you wonder what Bogart is trying to say. Is Death the Christian Right? Halliburton? Fiscal inequality? Or just a man with a tough job?
At the end of the actual von Saaz text (begun one day after the his wife died in childbirth), the poor Ploughman has to be content with his religious bromides. We're not entirely certain if Bogart intends us to see that as a fait accompli or merely pointless fiddling while Rome burns.

Labour has been accused of failing to scrutinise the government and oppose Theresa May's plans to take Britain out of the European Union.
In a passionate outburst on BBC Question Time on Thursday, Liberal Democrat MP Alistair Carmichael lambasted Labour's Emily Thornberry for "opening the door" to Tory policies.
Carmichael said: "Emily cannot sit there and say that she's going to have an adult conversation and then in the next breath say that the Labour Party will not stand in the way of Brexit.
"It is the job of the official opposition in Parliament to scrutinise government.
"We know what the Conservatives want to do now. We know they want to take us out of the Single Market, we know they want to take us out of the customs union.
"We heard from Philip Hammond at the weekend that they want to make us a Singapore without the sunshine.
"We're going to be a low tax, low regulation economy.. you're just going to open the door to that?"
Emily Thornberry replied: "The difficulty is that Labour is not in power, I don't know anybody has noticed that, but the Conservatives are in power."
Carmichael interrupted Thornberry, saying: "You're not even in opposition."

*Burbank, CA: Norwegian singing and songwriting duo Nico & Vinz are back with a new EP entitled 'Cornerstone' available on November 6th.
The five-track EP will serve as an appetizer for a full-length project out in 2016 which showcases the 24-year old's growth and progress since they broke out with their global hit "Am I Wrong."
"The sounds out there right now show us that there's no real formula anymore, that it's ok to play around with sounds and moods. So we wrote a lot of songs based on things we enjoy listening and performing to and put that on the project," explains Nico on the inspiration behind the eclectic mix.
"We represent this new generation that is genre-blind but connects with songs they feel, like love and struggle. The moment captured in this EP is a reflection on those feelings and experiences."
- Lay A Little Closer
- Our Love
- Not For Nothing
- Praying To A God
- That's How You Know feat. Bebe Rexha and Kid Ink
'Cornerstone' is led by "That's How You Know," a cautionary tale of doing too much. It features rapper/producer Kid Ink, as well as fellow singer/songwriter Bebe Rexha and is one of the first songs recorded from the new batch of music.
"That song was a fun one to record that kinda started off a joke of what would happen if we took advantage of the opportunity we have been afforded," explains Nico.
"It's us trying new stuff, and was actually one of the first songs we recorded with this new mentality in different approaches to making music."
The single, currently at #38 on the Top 40 charts, will make its television debut on Friday November 27th on the 9am hour of The TODAY Show on NBC.
The Norwegian duo's 2014 debut album "Black Star Elephant" was praised for its effortless blending of pop, reggae, West African dance, hip hop, and soul to create a collection of songs brimming with soul-stirring messages and hopes for the future.
Led by their breakthrough multi-platinum hit "Am I Wrong," the aspirational anthem was #1 in 50 countries, streamed over 250 million times, and became the most Shazam'd song in the world for 2 months.
The song of the summer would be performed on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel Live, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Fashion Rocks, Good Morning America, Dancing with the Stars, Live! with Kelly and Michael, The View, MTV, VH1 and E!.
Their whirlwind year would include tour slots with Bruno Mars in North America and Usher in Europe, joining Taylor Swift on-stage on the Vancouver stop of her 1989 Tour, winning Best New Artist at The Soul Train Awards, a jam session with The Roots during Grammy week, a headlining slot at the ESSENCE Festival in New Orleans, and achieving their soccer-loving goal of lending a song to the soundtrack of EA Sports' FIFA 15.
Elsewhere, Nico & Vinz lend their unique performance style to worthy causes, gracing the stage of UNICEF's Snowflake Ball alongside Jill Scott and empowering attendees of Glamour's "The Power of an Educated Girl" with Michelle Obama and Charlize Theron. Nico & Vinz earlier earned the respect of the First Family who invited them to play the National Christmas Tree Lighting while adding their music to the official White House playlist.
With the fight against AIDS dear to their hearts, the pair would bring awareness to prevention and inclusion with a performance at the UN AIDS Gala in Switzerland and travelling to South Africa with Zendaya for World AIDS Day after crafting a video for their song "My Melody" to the cause.

After yesterday's post I think it's probably wise to actually post some Dunbar.
What follows is 'The Thrissal and the Rose', a poem written by Dunbar to commemorate the union of James IV and Margaret Tudor, a union which was supposed to bring peace between Scotland and England. It didn't work out so well in the end, and James IV was killed at The Battle of Flodden Field.
It's in middle scots, naturally and if you can get through it, it's a rewarding read.
The Thrissal and the Rose
by William Dunbar
Quhen Merche wes with variand windis past,
And Appryll had, with hir siluer schouris
Tane leif at nature with ane orient blast;
And lusty May, that mvddir is of flouris,
Had maid the birdis to begyn thair houris
Amang the tendir odouris reid and quhyt,
Quhois armony to heir it wes delyt;
In bed at morrow, sleiping as I lay,
Me thocht Aurora, with hir cristall ene,
In at the window lukit by the day
And halsit me, with visage paill and grene;
On quhois hand a lark sang fro the splene,
Awalk, luvaris, out of your slomering,
Se how the lusty morrow dois vp spring.
Me thocht fresche May befoir my bed vpstude,
In weid depaynt of mony diuerss hew,
Sobir, benyng, and full of mansuetude,
In brycht atteir of flouris forgit new,
Hevinly of color, quhyt, reid, broun and blew,
Balmit in dew, and gilt with Phebus bemys,
Quhill all the houss illumynit of hir lemys.
'Slugird,' scho said, 'Awalk annone, for schame,
And in my honour sum thing thow go wryt;
The lark hes done the mirry day proclame,
To raiss vp luvaris with confort and delyt,
Yit nocht incressis thy curage to indyt,
Quhois hairt sum tyme hes glaid and blisfull bene,
Sangis to mak vndir the levis grene.'
'Quhairto,' quod I, 'sall I vpryss at morrow,
For in this May few birdis herd I sing?
Thai haif moir causs to weip and plane thair sorrow,
Thy air it is nocht holsum nor benyng;
Lord Eolus dois in thy sessone ring;
So busteous ar the blastis of his horne,
Amang thy bewis to walk I haif forborne.'
With that this lady sobirly did smyll,
And said, 'Vpryss and do thy observance;
Thow did promyt, in Mayis lusty quhyle,
For to discryve the Roiss of most plesance.
Go se the birdis how thay sing and dance,
Illumynit our with orient skyis brycht,
Annamyllit richely with new asur lycht.'
Quhen this wes said, depairtit scho, this quene,
And enterit in a lusty gairding gent;
And than, me thocht, full hestely besene,
In serk and mantill [eftir hir] I went
Into this garth, most dulce and redolent
Off herb and flour, and tendir plantis sueit,
And grene levis doing of dew doun fleit.
The purpour sone, with tendir bemys reid,
In orient bricht as angell did appeir,
Throw goldin skyis putting vp his heid,
Quhois gilt tressis schone so wondir cleir,
That all the world tuke confort, fer and neir,
To luke vpone his fresche and blisfull face,
Doing all sable fro the hevynnis chace.
And as the blisfull soune of cherarchy
The fowlis song throw confort of the licht;
The birdis did with oppin vocis cry,
O luvaris fo, away thow dully nycht,
And welcum day that confortis every wicht;
Haill May, haill Flora, haill Aurora schene,
Haill princes Natur, haill Venus luvis quene!
Dame Nature gaif ane inhibitioun thair
To ferss Neptunus, and Eolus the bawld,
Nocht to perturb the wattir nor the air,
And that no schouris [scharp,] nor blastis cawld,
Effray suld flouris nor fowlis on the fold;
Scho bad eik Juno, goddes of the sky,
That scho the hevin suld keip amene and dry.
Scho ordand eik that every bird and beist
Befoir hir hienes suld annone compeir,
And every flour of vertew, most and leist,
And every herb be feild fer and neir,
As thay had wont in May, fro yeir to yeir,
To hir thair makar to mak obediens,
Full law inclynnand with all dew reuerens.
With that annone scho send the swyft[e] Ro
To bring in beistis of all conditioun;
The restles Suallow commandit scho also
To feche all fowll of small and greit renown;
And to gar flouris compeir of all fassoun,
Full craftely conjurit scho the Yarrow,
Quhilk did furth swirk als swift as ony arrow.
All present wer in twynkling of ane e,
Baith beist, and bird and flour, befoir the quene,
And first the lyone, gretast of degre,
Was callid thair, and he, most fair to sene,
With a full hardy contenance and kene,
Befoir Dame Natur come, and did inclyne,
With visage bawld, and curage leonyne.
This awfull beist full terrible wes of cheir,
Persing of luke, and stout of countenance,
Rycht strong of corpis, of fassoun fair, but feir,
Lusty of schaip, lycht of deliuerance,
Reid of his cullour, as is the ruby glance;
On feild of gold he stude full mychtely,
With flour delycis sirculit lustely.
This lady liftit vp his cluvis cleir,
And leit him listly lene vpone hir kne,
And crownit him with dyademe full deir,
Of radyous stonis, most ryall for to se;
Saying, 'The king of beistis mak I thee,
And the chief protector in the woddis and schawis;
Onto thi leigis go furth, and keip the lawis.
'Exerce justice with mercy and conscience,
And lat no small beist suffir skaith, na skornis
Of greit beistis that bene of moir piscence;
Do law elyk to aipis and vnicornis,
And lat no bowgle, with his busteous hornis,
The meik pluch ox oppres, for all his pryd,
Bot in the yok go peciable him besyd.'
Quhen this was said, with noyis and soun of joy,
All kynd of beistis into thair degre,
At onis cryit lawd, 'Viue le roy!'
And till his feit fell with humilite,
And all thay maid him homege and fewte;
And he did thame ressaif with princely laitis,
Quhois noble yre is parcere prostratis.
Syne crownit scho the Egle King of Fowlis,
And as steill dertis scherpit scho his pennis,
And bawd him be als just to awppis and owlis,
As vnto pacokkis, papingais, or crennis,
And mak a law for wycht fowlis and for wrennis;
And lat no fowll of ravyne do efferay,
Nor devoir birdis bot his awin pray.
Than callit scho all flouris that grew on feild,
Discirnyng all thair fassionis and effeiris;
Vpone the awfull Thrissill scho beheld,
And saw him kepit with a busche of speiris;
Concedring him so able for the weiris,
A radius croun of rubeis scho him gaif,
And said, 'In feild go furth, and fend the laif;
'And, sen thow art a king, thow be discreit;
Herb without vertew thow hald nocht of sic pryce
As herb of vertew and of odor sueit;
And lat no nettill vyle, and full of vyce,
Hir fallow to the gudly flour delyce;
Nor latt no wyld weid, full of churlichenes,
Compair hir till the lilleis nobilnes.
'Nor hald non vdir flour in sic denty
As the fresche Roiss, of cullour reid and quhyt;
For gife thow dois, hurt is thyne honesty,
Conciddering that no flour is so perfyt,
So full of vertew, plesans and delyt,
So full of blisfull angelik bewty,
Imperiall birth, honour, and dignite.'
Than to the Roiss scho turnyt hir visage,
And said, 'O lusty dochtir most benyng,
Aboif the lilly, illustare of lynnage,
Fro the stok ryell rysing fresche and ying,
But ony spot or macull doing spring;
Cum blowme of joy with jemis to be cround,
For our the laif thy bewty is renownd.'
A coistly croun, with clarefeid stonis brycht,
This cumly quene did on hir heid inclois,
Quhill all the land illumynit of the licht;
Quhairfoir me thocht all flouris did reioiss,
Crying attonis, 'Haill be, thow richest Roiss!
Haill, hairbis empryce, haill, freschest quene of flouris,
To the be glory and honour at all houris.'
Thane all the birdis song with voce on hicht,
Quhois mirthfull soun wes mervelus to heir;
The mavyss song, 'Haill, Roiss most riche and richt,
That dois vp flureiss vndir Phebus speir;
Haill, plant of yowth, haill, princes dochtir deir,
Haill, blosome breking out of the blud royall,
Quhois pretius vertew is imperiall.'
The merle scho sang, 'Haill, Roiss of most delyt,
Haill, of all flouris quene and soverane;'
The lark scho song, 'Haill, Rois, both reid and quhyt,
Most plesand flour, of michty cullouris twane;'
The nychtingaill song, 'Haill, naturis suffragene,
In bewty, nurtour and every nobilness,
In riche array, renown, and gentilness.'
The commoun voce vprais of birdis small,
Apone this wyss, 'O blissit be the hour
That thow wes chosin to be our principall;
Welcome to be our princes of honour,
Our perle, our plesans and our paramour,
Our peax, our play, our plane felicite,
Chryst thee conserf frome all aduersite!'
Than all the birdis song with sic a schout,
That I annone awoilk quhair that I lay,
And with a braid I turnyt me about
To se this court; bot all wer went away:
Than vp I lenyt, halflingis in affrey,
And thuss I wret, as ye haif hard to-forrow,
Off lusty May vpone the nynt morrow.

If people no longer expect objectivity from their political and legal systems, then all justice will be reduced to a power struggle between conflicting and irreconcilable perspectives, a struggle in which the most dominant and pervasive bias will replace fair and impartial process as the character of justice. But if objectivity in law and politics is everywhere supplanted by conflict between subjective interests, then the side of economic privilege and established authority will always retain dominance. A society in which people no longer expect representatives of its major institutions even to attempt to render objectivity in their professional demeanours is a society whose major institutions are in a crisis of ethical legitimacy. In such a society, there is wide spread cynicism regarding the possibility of fair political process because it seems impossible that impartial, unbiased dispositions could exist to enact such processes.

NWO - Red Dawn TRAILER (2012)
China Invades America. EMP weapon detonated, all electronics fried. These weapons do exist and America does not currently have the defenses to protect against them. There are measures we could put in place to protect ourselves but their is not the political will to put them in place. China ordered this film to be censored and the company producing the film complied. After the film had finished shooting they had to spend about a million dollars editing out all references to china replacing them with north korea. Hollywood producers are careful to not anger china as they all are afraid of loosing access to the chinese market. In a way, the biggest threat to us is not the enemy itself but our own weak leaders who outsource our jobs, reduce our nuclear weapons capacity, and basically sell us into slavery. Patriots Unite in Resistance to Tyranny.

Fish Status
Bluegill were vary abundant. Bluegill ranged in size from 3.7 to 6.1 inches, with an average size of 5.3 inches. Twenty-one percent of the catch was longer than six inches. The results of the survey indicated a very healthy bluegill population that would benefit from responsible harvest.
Common carp were extremely abundant during this survey. Six common carp were measured from a sub-sample during the most recent survey. They ranged in size from 7.6 to 23.0 inches, averaging 18.4 inches. The heaviest one weighed 5.9 pounds. Common carp have been very abundant in this lake during previous surveys and unlimited harvest is encouraged for this detrimental species.
Channel catfish captured in this survey ranged in size from 20.8 to 23.0 inches long, with the largest weighing 5.4 pounds. Fishing for channel catfish should be better in the future as 1,700 four and a half inch channel catfish were stocked in 2012 and 2014.
In our 2014 survey, 29 largemouth bass were found in healthy abundance. The average bass was 9.8 inches long, but size ranged from 4.9 to 15.7 inches. The heaviest bass weighed 2.2 pounds. Only 17% of the bass were over twelve inches and just two legal size (15 inches) fish were caught. Previous surveys here have captured bass up to 18 inches in this lake. Large bass may have been lost due to winter kill in the harsh winter of 2013–14. Multiple sizes (year classes) indicate successful reproduction in this lake. Abundant forage species (gizzard shad, bluegill and golden shiner) keep the bass in this lake fat and healthy.
Location: Foxcroft Lake is located on the west side of Aurora. From Orchard Road, head east on Sullivan Road, turn south (right) on Foxcroft Drive and then west (right) on Birch Lane. Birch Lane dead ends into a small parking area for the adjacent Foxcroft Park.
Description: Foxcroft Lake is an 8.1 acre dug retention pond with a maximum depth of 4.6 feet. The lake is owned and maintained by the Fox Valley Park District (FVPD) as a community park in a residential setting. Flow through from adjacent storm sewers help keep this shallow lake from serious winter kill. The shoreline is mowed in several areas to allow access for shore fishing.
History and Status of the Sport Fishery: The FVPD has entered into a cooperative management agreement with the Illinois Department of Natural Resources to facilitate fisheries management activities. Site-specific regulations apply (six fish daily creel on channel catfish and a three fish, 15-inch minimum limit on largemouth bass). An electrofishing survey took place in May 2014. A newly started channel catfish program (1,700 four inch catfish every other year) should offer great fishing for this species in the future. Abundant largemouth bass and bluegill should offer anglers plenty of action in this suburban park. Excellent access makes Foxcroft Lake a family friendly fishing location. Golden shiner, gizzard shad, yellow bullhead and bluntnose minnow also occur in Foxcroft Lake.
Additional Lake Information: A playground and basketball courts are located at the adjacent park.

(This article belongs to the Special Issue Hormone Therapy)
AbstractHormone replacement after menopause has in recent years been the subject of intense scientific debate and public interest and has sparked intense research efforts into the biological effects of estrogens and progestagens. However, there are reasons to believe that the doses used and plasma concentrations produced in a large number of studies casts doubt on important aspects of their validity. The concept of hormesis states that a substance can have diametrically different effects depending on the concentration. Even though estrogens and progestagens have proven prone to this kind of dose-response relation in a multitude of studies, the phenomenon remains clearly underappreciated as exemplified by the fact that it is common practice to only use one hormone dose in animal experiments. If care is not taken to adjust the concentrations of estrogens and progestagens to relevant biological conditions, the significance of the results may be questionable. Our aim is to review examples of female sexual steroids demonstrating bidirectional dose-response relations and to discuss this in the perspective of hormesis. Some examples are highlighted in detail, including the effects on cerebral ischemia, inflammation, cardiovascular diseases and anxiety. Hopefully, better understanding of the hormesis phenomenon may result in improved future designs of studies of female sexual steroids. View Full-Text

The Dún Laoghaire Harbour is a 200-year old heritage site twelve kilometres south of Dublin and a major port of entry for Ireland.
Metropolitan Workshop was invited by Dún Laoghaire Harbour Company in 2010 to prepare a masterplan which realises the potential of the harbour as a major marine, leisure and tourism destination.
The Harbour Company intends to promote investment in, and generate sufficient revenue from, commercial operations to ensure the long term sustainability of the harbour. The project presents many challenges including transport and tourism development, security logistics, heritage conservation, as well as the improvement of public amenities. Our masterplan will improve public access to the waterfront through a network of new public spaces.
Key aims are to create new cultural attractions, provide improved marine infrastructure and to establish the feasibility of providing new facilities for cruise liners to boost the regeneration of the town centre.
Client: Dún Laoghaire Harbour Company
Current Status: Masterplan completed

François Bailly-Maitre and Lewis Buchanan Start EWS with great Team Performance28. March 2016, Corral, Chile — Melanie Leveau — Enduro Team
The 2016 Enduro season kicked off in February with a win from François Bailly-Maitre at the Andes Pacifico, a stage race across the Chilean Andes. One month later, round one of the Enduro World Series also took place Chile, in Corral. Six stages over two days of racing were awaiting the 400 riders who made the trip to South America. Like every first race of the season, levels of curiosity were high to see who was starting the season in the best shape.
Following his win at Andes Pacifico, François Bailly-Maitre was pinned for a podium. The French rider came in a respectable tenth place, despite a disappointing 36th place in the very last stage. "I'm so frustrated" he said a few minutes after his times appeared on the finishing board. "I was third place on the fifth stage which is great but this last stage leaves a taste of sour taste in my mouth. I crashed and lost a few seconds then but I also couldn't find the right speed." Despite the disappointment of the last stage, FBM is pretty happy with a result that shows he is already in good form, which is not usually the case for him this early in the season.
A very promising first for Lewis Buchanan
Lewis Buchanan, newcomer to the BMC Factory Trailcrew team, raced his very first Enduro World Series event and suspicions have been confirmed: he is indeed a force to be reckoned with. Racing with the number 56 this weekend, the Scottish rider passed lots of riders to find his way up to a better number and start position for the following events. He climbed his way up to number 21st after only one day of competition and showed excellent control and riding skills to knock on the door of the top 10 in stages 4 and 6. He eventually finished in13th position in his first EWS race. "I didn't expect such a result. I came here with a top 40 in mind in order to slowly but steadily get a better start position so I am very happy with this 13th place!" The young rider, who comes originally from downhill mountain bike racing, doesn't get over excited however and hopes for a similar and consistent result next weekend in Bariloche, Argentina for the second round of the Enduro World Series.
One thing is for sure, he doesn't regret his switch to Enduro racing. "I've been racing downhill for quite a few years and took part in a few cross-country and cyclo-cross race but I've never experienced anything like that. The atmosphere and support between riders and teams is great. I had a lot of fun this week and I can't wait for more next week!"

Community Outreach - CASA
Bona is an active partner of Advocates for Children, a local CASA agency that has served the 18th judicial district in Arapahoe, Douglas, Elbert and Lincoln counties since 1985. Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA volunteers) are trained volunteers from the community who speak up for the best interests of abused and neglected children in the courtroom. Children helped by CASA volunteers include those for whom home placement is being determined in the Dependency and Neglect Court filings. The CASA volunteer helps to ensure that the children are in safe, permanent and thriving environments. CASA Volunteers make independent recommendations to the court that include a child's placement, school and emotional well-being. The volunteer remains with that child throughout the life of a case. With over 300 active volunteers each year, serving over 800 children annually, they contribute to a total of more than 25,000 volunteer hours to the community.
Advocates for Children also has a program called the Legacy Project which serves adolescent youth who have been in the foster care system by teaching life skills including cooking, health, interview skills, etc.
It costs Advocates for Children $100 every month to provide one child with a CASA volunteer. Find out how you can help!

I have confessed in an earlier post that I was indeed a PBJ.
Well, I have duplicate copies of this book (a story I don't want to get into at this time) and thought it would be a great giveaway.
This would be good for math stations. There are three sections, each one dealing with hands on numeration activities.
Section 1: Numeration Activities through 100
Section 2: Numeration Activities through 1,000
Section 3: Numeration Activities through 100,000,000
So I've decided to give it away to one lucky winner. I figured what better way to kick off my Spring Break than to give. Who doesn't love free stuff!
All you have to do is:
1. Leave a post about one math station or fun math activity you do with your class.
2. Follow my blog.
The contest ends Sunday-Midnight CST.
Monday I'll post the winner.

I sometimes worry about the insides of my PC. I don't clean it as often as I probably should. Is there too much dust in there? Is that dust going to break something dear to me?
It might, but then, I see videos like this and think, shit, my PC is spotless compared to some people's.
So gross.
A PC full of filth! [LiveLeak, via Neatorama]

Amritsar: Radical Sikh group Dal Khalsa on Saturday condoled the death of the young woman who was gang-raped in Delhi and demanded "exemplary" punishment for the accused.
"All members of my group join me in mourning the demise of the 23-year-old woman who was gang-raped in Delhi," party head HS Dhami said.
He demanded that the accused be handed "exemplary" punishment so that "no one could dare to think of doing such a ghastly and barbaric act against women in the future."
The group was also "deeply moved" by the suicide of a gang-rape victim due to alleged delay in action against the accused.
"We are deeply moved by another shameful incident of rape of Patiala girl, who committed suicide because of inaction of the local police against the rapists and express our grief and condolences to her family members," he said.

Necessary Insurance
Will you get hit by a car or win the lottery tomorrow? Who knows. Nobody can predict the future, but everybody can buy some piece of mind by getting a little insurance. Here are 5 types of insurance everybody should have so they can sleep at night.
Explanation of common terms
1. Health Insurance
43 million Americans don't have it but you should. With medical costs increasing much faster than inflation (with no end in sight) medical insurance is becoming more and more important. A trip to the emergency for a broken arm cost me over $2500 before it was perfectly healed (Darn you Jack Daniels) and some medical treatments can cost thousands if not tens of thousands each year.
Most people who have insurance get it though their employers, but an individual can purchase it outright, or buy supplemental insurance. Monthly premiums vary by care level, age and other factors and can easily range from $100 per month for minimal care for a healthy 20 something; to $1500 per month for great care for a senior citizen.
2. Life insurance
This is really only for the parents in the audience. It's pretty simple; whoever is going to take care of junior in the event that you pass away is going to have a big burden. Why not make sure they have a big pile of money to help with the coming challenges?
Special provisions may apply, such as a suicide clause where the policy doesn't pay out in the event that the insured commits suicid. Any misrepresentations by the insured on the application is also grounds for nullification.
The face amount on the policy is the initial amount that the policy will pay at the death of the insured although the actual death benefit can provide for more or less than the face amount. The policy matures when the insured dies or reaches a specified age (such as 100 years old).
Upon death, the insurer requires proof of death before it pays the claim. The normal minimum proof required is a death certificate and a completed claim form that is signed notarized.If the insured's death is suspicious and the policy amount is large, the insurer may investigate the circumstances surrounding the death before deciding whether it will pay the claim. Proceeds from the policy may be paid as a lump sum or as an annuity.
Hilarious phone call
3. Car insurance
If you own a car this is a must. Literally. Many states legally require drivers to have a minimal level of insurance to operate a vehicle. How many times a week to you get up to 70 mph on the highway? One false move by you or some other bum could ruin your car and you body.
From fender benders, to high speed crashes, to theft, most car insurance companies will let let you customize the kind of insurance you want so that it fits your lifestyle. You will get to select from about a 10 different kinds of insurance, such as theft, uninsured driver, collision, liability etc. You also get to select how much coverage you want. For example if you have great faith in your driving skills, or you don't drive much you can take less liability insurance and pay a lower premium. Also if you don't live in the best neighborhood or drive through a lower income area often you can buy greater uninsured driver coverage.
The car insurance video above will provide you with no useful information whatsoever, but it is pretty hilarious. I wouldn't want to the the insurance agent on this call!
4. Property Insurance
At first I was going to write Homeowners insurance but I thought I would expand the category to property. Pretty much anywhere you go your propterty is in danger of succumbing to natural disasters: Fires and earthquakes in California, Tornadoes and floods in the Midwest, Hurricanes in the Southeast. A lot of things could happen to your most prized material possesions, so keep them safe with some property insurance.
Property is insured in two main ways - open perils and name perils. Open perils cover all the causes of loss not specifically excluded in the policy. Common exclusions on open peril policies include damage resulting from earthquakes, floods, nuclear incidents, acts of terrorism and war. Named perils require the actual cause of loss to be listed in the policy for insurance to be provided. The more common named perils include such damage causing events as fire, lightning, explosion and theft.
5. Casualty Insurance
Separate from (and sometimes supplemental to) medical insurance; this form of insurance protects you from some of the most hair-raising disasters. Get hit by a car? Fall off a ladder and break your back? Meet Rosie O'Donnell in person and instantly go blind? If you have Casualty insurance you will have a little help recovering and leading a normal life after your accident.
The video on the right is CNN coverage of a man who probably wishes he had gotten some casualty insurance before he decided to cross the street one night.

We said. . . . .
DOES THIS SOUND FUN? Want to GUESS what can be found in the hundreds of pages of recently released emails between de Blasio and Berlin Rosen concerning: Deals about our libraries, David Kramer, Hudson Companies, Marvel Architects, Deputy Mayor Alicia Glen, the Fifth Avenue Committee, EDC, The Springer spouses, the BPL, Linda Johnson, the NYPL, the Queens Library, Steven Schwarzman, Marshall Rose, Booz Allen, Center For An Urban Future, Goldman, Rivington Nursing Home, Brad Lander, Steve Levin, Brooklyn Bridge Park, the City Planning Commission, holding back on audits?Ross Offiinger to de Blasio's chief of staff Emma Wolfe putting library developer names on a wish list. Evidence that this was improper come when senior de Blasio advisor Peter Ragone emails back "Can we take this off official thread please."
It may take your sharp eye and some diligent searching, but whatever is available in this first batch of released emails is available here. Of course, it may be that they are tactically holding back and that there is nothing here in this initial release, but we won't know without searching through. . .
Let us know if you are looking and we'll share what we find.
Mayor's Office Releases Hundreds of Pages of Emails Between de Blasio and 'Agent of the City'
By Grace Rauh
Updated Thursday, November 24, 2016
The de Blasio administration long resisted giving these emails in response to the freedom of information law, delivered what they has so far heavily blacked out with redactions, and still has not delivered more. Expect that they will have to be forthcoming with many more. As it was, these emails were delivered using a classic age-old tactic: A massive document dump on Thanksgiving Eve, hoping that nobody would notice.
|Fundraiser to de Blasio chief of staff: Developer wish list with the names of library developers David Kramer, Bruce Ratner, Jed Walentas- Click to enlarge
|"Can we take this off official thread please." - Apparently a demand, not a question from senior de Blasio advisor Peter Ragone.
As things currently stand, David Kramer is expecting to be the principal developer of the site if the library is torn down. Bruce Ratner, already owning part of the overall development parcel (transferred to him by the city in 1986) is a gatekeeper of the transaction involved in the transfer of development rights being used.
Footnote on Ratner: Breaking news on Ratner presents some losing-the-devil-we-know news- Ratner is being kicked off the board at his company and the Ratner family may be on the road to losing control. See: Atlantic Yards Report: Forest City Realty Trust reverses itself, will drop family control; Bruce Ratner to leave board (Pacific Park loss a factor?), December 07, 2016.
There is another developer on the email wish list involved who is involved with library deals, Jed Walentas. His tower across from BAM, BAM South, has been involved in shifting plans respecting the libraries. Originally, he was being assisted in getting a variance for his building (which he originally bid to get form the city as a parking lot) based on the idea that it would include a library paid for by selling the Pacific Street Library across the street from Ratner's Atlantic Yards, thus freeing up the land next to the Ratner's mega-monopoly for redevelopment. Last time other developers and real estate owners were competing near his turf in the area Ratner used the city government to kick them off their land.
We have more we expect to publish here. Our team is has a lot to look at.

Beginner/Intermediate Skiers: Skiing Aspen Highlands
If you've spent any time in the Aspen area, you're probably well aware of Aspen Highlands' reputation as a mecca for expert skiers. The steep runs of Highland Bowl and Steeplechase are clearly the mountain's public face, but there's plenty of great terrain for intermediates and even beginners if you know where to look.
Beginner/Intermediate Skiers: Skiing Buttermilk
If you've just arrived in Aspen, and you've never been on skis before, Buttermilk is far and away your best choice to learn how to ski. Though it's home to ESPN's Winter X Games and has one of the most fearsome terrain parks to be found anywhere, Buttermilk is still, at its heart, an exceptional beginner's mountain.
Beginner/Intermediate Skiers: Skiing Snowmass
Despite its massive size, Snowmass has relatively little in the way of beginner terrain, with just 6 percent of the runs bearing a green circle. It more than makes up for this shortcoming, however, with thousands of acres of some of the best intermediate trails to be found anywhere, including many runs that are suitable for skiers with a just a few days' experience under their belts.
Colorado Triple Play Pass Announced
The snow has started, and if you're still wondering how you can get your fill, skiing and riding the most versatile terrain in Colorado, look no further. Introducing the all new Colorado Triple Play. This is the ultimate multi-mountain access ski pass for the 2011-2012 season. It offers snow sports enthusiasts the opportunity to catch fresh tracks at Aspen/Snowmass, Steamboat and Winter Park Resort.
End of Season Ticklist
When I was 12, skiing Lake Tahoe in Levis and thinking I was cooler than the guy in the stretch pants (I was, wasn't I?) I wore this sweatshirt with a picture of a mountain and a stick figure whizzing down it that said, "My life is going downhill." No pun intended at age 12, but I do stop and wonder every now and then at the fact that I'm still spending an inordinate amount of time, in effect, simply pointing them.
A similar sequence plays out each and every day: Get on chair, get clunked on the head by over-eager safety bar zealot, get off chair, buckle boots to the brink of searing shin pain, ski down hill; repeat. Really, it seems kind of inane. Here we go again...Wheee!!
Yet I've been doing it for 32 years, and 12 of those have been around 90 days a season, here in Aspen.
In Case You Don't Feel Like Skiing...
Even in Aspen, Colorado, it's no crime to admit that you are just not that into skiing or snowboarding. Maybe you never were. Or maybe that last run knocked all the snow out of you.
Either way, while your friends frolic down the slopes, you need something to do besides going to the movies over and over and over.
Do not despair. Aspen has lots to do.
Matt at His Best: Aspen.com writer steals the show at Winter X Games 15
Well, stole the show for those who enjoy pull-ups more than extreme snow-sports, at least. Ever since I saw the iconic leg-lamp from the timeless movie classic A Christmas Story, and the exaltation that it brought its proud owner, I had longed for my own major award (Scene in question). This year, I'd get my chance. But it would take more than knowing the name of the Lone Ranger's nephew's horse; this was going to require a feat of strength.
The task: complete more pull-ups than all competitors of the day.
The stakes: one limited-edition Navy / X Games snowboard.
I found out about the the Navy Seal's Winter X Games pull up event five days prior to showtime. I got strategic, and planned two workouts to cram into my limited prep time. First, I had to hop on the bar and see where I stood: twenty three, and a little sloppy. I expected the contest to require strict dead-hang form (which it did), so I knew there was work to be done.
My Extreme Aspen Experience: ESPN Winter X Games
ASPEN, CO I got to spend 3 days in Aspen... DURING THE X-GAMES NO LESS!! It was a great experience that came along with a few "bumps and bruises" but I surely wouldn't trade a moment of it!
I live in Eagle and have attended at least 1 day of the "Games" each Winter since they've been in Aspen. This year was different in the manner that I got to stay Fri-Sun... had condo accommodations and lift tickets for Buttermilk! It was like I had hit a mini jackpot! I jumped on the opportunity to immerse myself in the Aspen Winter X-Game 15 experience that seemed to have just been laid at my snowboard boot covered feet :)
Powder to the Night People: Reflections from Snowmass
Morning people run the world. It's true. The opening bell determines when things start, in any time zone; if you sleep in past nine, you miss the free continental breakfast; races start at the crack of dawn (unless you're in the casual group, which might start at 8); even McDonald's cuts you off from EggMcMuffins around 10:30AM.
Skiing the Shrines of Aspen/Snowmass - A Conversation with Author and Shrine Expert David Wood
The first time I accidentally stumbled upon the Jerry Garcia shrine on Aspen Mountain, I felt as if I discovered a secret garden of pop culture iconography while skiing through a snowy and psychedelic Xanadu. While gliding in solitude through the peaceful tranquility of a forested ridge, I was not expecting to suddenly discover a grove of trees dangling with pictures, dried roses, memorabilia, and assorted miscellany of the legendary Grateful Dead front man. Thankfully, no one was within earshot because the odd discovery inspired a quiet Garcia refrain: "Going where the wind don't blow so strange/Maybe up on some high cold mountain range."
