Summer Fun
The summer camp program was small when I first started working at Jamestown Audubon only a few sessions, only a few children. I asked my then boss – raise your hand if you remember Jim Yaich – if we should just do away with the summer camp program. He answered that Audubon camp had been offered continuously since the 1970s, and he would hate to see it disappear. All-righty then. Let's do this.
As the parent of elementary school children, I thought about what experience I would want for my children. The education staff brainstormed ideas around scheduling and programming, and we put together a re-vamped day camp. We promoted it. And promoted it. And promoted it. And it was very successful. Over the next few years, it grew bigger and bigger.
We love Day Camp. We consider it to be one of our most effective programs, connecting children to nature, modeling environmental stewardship and learning, learning, learning. It hits every goal in our education master plan. And it's fun. This summer, we are offering 19 sessions over eight weeks. Some of the sessions are already full with waiting lists; others still have openings.
The sessions have various names and themes. While all of the camps involve being outside and exploring, some sessions will focus on a particular topic. The Water's Edge, for example, is a camp for children who will enter grades 5 through 7 next fall. It runs from July 23-26. These students will explore the edges of Audubon's ponds, but will also hop in the van to travel to other types of watery environs including a creek and a lake shore. Also for this age group is A Better Place, Aug. 6-9. These children will roll up their sleeves to actually do something to make the world a better place – pull non-native plants, replace them with new shrubs and trees, and more.
As a foodie, I'm excited about the offering for 8 and 9 year olds called How Does Your Garden Grow? These campers will find out first hand where their food comes from and sample just-picked goodies from our new demonstration gardens made possible through a mini-grant from the Cornell Cooperative Extension.
New this year is Counselor Camp running from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m. June 25-28. Teenagers in this camp will learn the leadership skills required to be counselors in training or junior counselors who assist Audubon staff running the rest of the summer's sessions.
We will be partnering once again with the Community Music Project to offer Music Camp to children who will enter pre-K through second grade in the fall. From Aug. 6-9, children will listen to and move to music, learn to play some instruments and sing some songs in addition to their nature explorations.
There are full descriptions of all the offerings on our Day Camp website (jacamps.wordpress.com) where parents can also see the up-to-date enrollment figures for each camp and download registration and health forms. Families who need a little assistance in paying for camp should download the application for a campership. Funds are still available from Wild Birds Unlimited and National Audubon.
Jamestown Audubon is a 600-acre wetland preserve located at 1600 Riverside Road in the town of Kiantone, one-quarter mile east of Route 62 between Jamestown and Warren, Pa. Five and half miles of trails lead visitors through field and forest habitats and along the banks of freshwater ponds. The Nature Center building houses hands-on exhibits for all ages, a collection of education animals and a nature store. Just outside the Nature Center building is Liberty's enclosure. Liberty is a non-releasable bald eagle cared for by Audubon volunteers. For more information, call the center at 569-2345 or visit jamestownaudubon.org.
Jennifer Schlick is program director at Jamestown Audubon.

Topic: Refactoring Forum?
We already have forums with people trying to make things work. How about one where we can post working code for critique (and hopefully optimization)?

We already have forums with people trying to make things work. How about one where we can post working code for critique (and hopefully optimization)?
I think it would rock
Good idea. Anyone else want to chime in?
Agreed - would be good to have
On second thought, perhaps we could call it Optimization and not only provide refactoring, but also benchmarking, caching and all those other lovely performance improvements.
It could be sitting pretty right underneath the Deployment forum.

Even better. I like that idea.
It would be sort of like http://www.therailsway.com/ but as a forum... and without Jamis and Michael. *shifty eyes*
That was actually my inspiration!
Those guys are my heroes
I would love a section like that!
Well, forum administrators will have lots of work with moving stuff between the various forums.
The biggest problem of the forum structure IMHO is having >75% of all posts in one forum. I'd therefor suggest to merge some underused forums and find a solution for splitting the 'Rails Programming' forum (e.g. ActiveRecord, ActionView,...). Having too many forums can be a problem...
The other problem I'm seeing with the optimization forum (even though I've learned more by looking at how people refactor stuff than anything else) is that optimizing a SQL table has nothing to do with configuring environment.rb or profiling a ruby code snippet.
A first suggestion is the following setup (which definetly can be optimized):
- Rails Core Programming
- ActionController
- ActionView
- ActionMailer
- ActiveRecord
- Active Support
- Rails Related
- Rails Installation
- Rails Deployment
- Application Design
- Rails Plugins
- Rails Optimization
- Rails Testing
- Database design
- Ruby Programming
- Web Development
- Tools
- Ajax
- Design

"Deployment" is not really related to "Starting out", it's probably more related to DB optimization, apache/mongrel optimization and rails code refactoring. Probably that's what should be put together into a group.
I'm against merging completely unrelated topics in an "optimization forum", as we might have people who know how to optimize SQL statements and index tables, and others who know how to optimize a ruby method. And other people might know how to reduce the session overhead and suggest a plugin that reduces ActiveRecord overhead. Noone will know everything, and merging such things results in a big mess - about the same mess as we currently have in our "Rails Programming" forum.
Having too general topic names leads to people posting in the 'big forum', simply because they don't really think twice where to put something. Which is why usually "general discussion" forums aren't perfect.
Also, please take a look at the "Rails Programming" forum. Many threads cover simple questions, which beginners might classify as 'optimization' (and should be posted in either rails core forums or 'app theory' ). Refactoring is usally something else, as it's about cleaning up code in specific methods (or models), plus reducing CPU usage.
Besides that, I strongly vote for a 'Ajax / Prototype / Scriptaculos / LowPro / Rails Helpers' forum - currently we have separate forums for JavaScript, XHTML etc, and where do people post all their Ajax stuff? In the Rails Programming forum - where it probably doesn't belong, especially as Ajax helpers are moved out of the Rails core with 2.0.
Finally, I wonder if it would be a good idea to have a forum for rails newbies. I remember when I started with Rails a few months ago, I wasn't even able to tell what is Rails and what is Ruby, and what ActiveRecord is. I probably would have preferred posting in a "New to Rails?" forum.
PS: I'd also like to vote against a "Tutorials" forum. Look what's inside: cPanel, acts_as_tree, updating several models from one form, Amazon S3, Refactoring, Installing Rails on Ubuntu,... - probably many of these threads are interesting, but you'd never look for them in that forum. I think its better to move the tutorials to the relevant forums and have *one* sticky in each forum with a list of topics that are tutorial-esque.
We did have a beginners forum here but that didnt work out so well.
I edited my list up top taking into consideration the good points you made.
Personally I think the whole web development forum is kind of a waste.. those forums should be integrated into other subjects..and I think we can all agree that design & flash are better dealt with on forums that specialize in just that.
Of course the mods will have the last word, but food for thought never hurts.

Just letting you guys know that yes, we are taking all this into consideration. I'm not sure if what we end up doing will be exactly like what is proposed, but I really like what I see here personally. Look for some changes in the coming week or two once I have time to fully implement some new forums.

Last month, I traveled to Beijing and Xi'an with Matt McMahon, the Fulbright Chief for East Asia. It was the first time I had been to China, and I was excited to see firsthand Fulbright and other Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs exchange programs at work. Overall, we shared an informative and enlightening week with insightful and generous hosts, and we're proud of the work that ECA and its program participants are doing there.
We arrived in a snowy Beijing and met with officials from the Chinese Ministry of Education and later representatives from Hanban, a Teachers of Critical Languages Program partner. With the upcoming Consultation on People-to-People Exchanges scheduled in May, we had plenty to discuss. Exciting progress is also being made on the "100,000 Strong" initiative to encourage Americans to study in China.
That evening, we shared a tasty dinner of Peking duck with a host of past and current Fulbrighters. Some of the Americans were studying Chinese through Fulbright awards, and there was even a married couple who were both teaching English in support of our programs! The Chinese alumni, who were from Fulbright and the Humphrey Fellowship Program, had a strong commitment to sustaining the impact of their exchanges and infectious enthusiasm to match.
We also visited a Beijing vocational school that partners with ECA in the English Access Microscholarship Program. Students applauded every time we entered a classroom, and we were impressed by their determination to practice their English with us...as well as the butter cookies they baked with help from a visiting Canadian chef!
Then, it was on to Xi'an, a former Silk Road capital and a major city and academic center in Northwest China. Today, Xi'an is home to three Chinese universities that send and receive Fulbright and Critical Language Scholarship participants and English Language Fellows. We met with officials from Shaanxi Normal University, Northwest University, and Xi'an International Studies University to discuss Fulbright and other exchange opportunities.
At Xi'an International Studies University, we were delighted to hear how Critical Language Scholarship students set an example for others. Their rigorous work has produced impressive gains in Chinese fluency, according to students' language test scores. And at each university, we met impressive Fulbright alumni on faculty, as well as one faculty member who will begin a Fulbright program at the University of California, Berkeley this fall. Xi'an International Studies University Professor and Fulbright alum Wu Yongzhi was especially generous in sharing his knowledge of the region's culture during our visit.
During one memorable evening in Xi'an, we talked with a dynamic group of American participants and their family members over pizza. Two Fulbright scholars, Joseph Kennedy and Maria Savasta-Kennedy, are both University of North Carolina law professors who currently teach at Northwest University. Their twin sons and daughter are abroad with them and now attend public school in Xi'an. The family is making academic and professional contributions through the Fulbright Program, and having American children studying alongside their Chinese peers is truly a valuable people-to-people experience, with an impact that will last for decades to come.
U.S. Fulbright students Anna, Jenny, Jeremy, Noah, and Yang were all bright, articulate, and multi-talented -- and comfortable with spoken Chinese. Their research spans subjects from water resources and urban history to Chinese art and education.
Embassy Beijing arranged a terrific and comprehensive program that allowed us to engage with a range of Chinese interlocutors in the field of international education, and spending time with exchange participants and alumni was particularly gratifying. We were inspired by all that they're achieving, and we returned home to Washington feeling optimistic about the value of educational exchange in the relationship between our two countries.

It is pouring rain outside -- but people do not seem to care. Though wet in some cases, there is a lot of laughter. On the eighth floor of the Department of State, there is an image of a professional basketball player on a screen and his quote "What do you stand for? Are you a follower or a leader?" People smile. They have seen his face many times, and they know him and what he represents. After all, Hakeem Olajuwon is one of the best athletes in America. The screen changes. It is a picture of Muhammad Ali, his arms open, his head tilted back with his mouth wide open. Behind him is a clear blue sky. His quote reads "Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth." He is an American icon and one of the most famous athletes in the world.
As the guests watch, images of super-stars, such as Olajuwon and Ali, are intermingled with the faces that our guest may not yet know: Omar Kaddurah, Ibtihaj Muhammad, and Noor Amr, to name a few. There is curiosity and expectation in the room. Nearly 70 members of the diplomatic corps, 40 members of Generation Change and 150 others from civil society, academia, government and business are enjoying the reception. The guests are wearing national dress as well as formal suits and dresses. The participants look forward to seeing the guests of honor and their host, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. They know that Secretary Clinton's Eid reception honoring American Muslim athletes is a first, and many have already emailed me to say "What a great idea!"
While they are waiting, the guest admire the Ben Franklin Room (yes, there is an antique oil painting of him at the far end of the room). The tables are appointed beautifully with rich, fall colors that come though in the bouquets of carefully paired pomegranate, berry, and florals. It is a festive occasion -- it is the celebration of Eid, which marks the end of Ramadan. Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar, during which Muslims around the world refrain from eating or drinking from sunrise to sunset. To mark the end of this fasting period, Eid is celebrated in many ways -- but at the heart of all celebrations is food, family and friends.
The State Department has been hosting official events during Ramadan since 1998. In addition, our embassies overseas have many different types of gatherings during Ramadan -- whether an Iftar (the breaking of the fast after sunset) hosted by an ambassador or special programming, such as the American hip-hop group Native Dean that toured through Indonesia during the first part of Ramadan. Honoring this special month is a tradition that brings communities together, and our gathering in the Ben Franklin Room is no exception.
Secretary Clinton hosts a diverse group of athletes from across America -- both professionals and amateurs. She is joined by fencers and runners, weightlifters and basketball players. She also invites a foreign guest, Amir Khan, the world's lightweight welterweight champion! It is fun to see these champions side-by-side with Secretary Clinton, a champion in her own right. Whether celebrating the anniversary of Title IX or launching the State Department's Women's World Cup Initiative to empower women and girls through sports, she has demonstrated that athletics make a difference both on and off the field.
Secretary Clinton speaks directly to her athlete honorees in her remarks, saying "Young Muslims around the world look up to you as heroes. You inspire them to dream big and work hard. And when all Americans take pride in your achievements, it underlines what is best in our nation."
She also speaks about the many ways the Department of State includes sports as part of our diplomacy efforts. As I stand on the podium with the Secretary, I look out and watch the faces of the many people gathered around the room. People nod and clap as she recognizes the achievements of her special guests and the importance of remembering that they represent the best of America. She gets a great response from the crowd when she talks about the documentary film Fordson, which will premier later this week in theatres across America but was screened at the Department of State before the reception. The movie chronicles the Fordson Tractor Football team in Dearborn, Michigan, who practice from 11:00 p.m. to 4:00 a.m. during Ramadan, so they can continue to fast in the Islamic tradition. (Earlier in the day, the filmmaker, Rashid Ghazi, went to a D.C. Public School to speak to the students about Ramadan and the movie.)
As Secretary Clinton speaks about the fact that this riveting story from Fordson demonstrates commitment to your team does not mean giving up your personal beliefs and spiritual identity -- and that the players showed the world that in America religious principles do not get in the way of the pursuit of excellence and achieving dreams.
As she finishes her formal remarks, Secretary Clinton invites Ephraim Salaam, an NFL offensive tackle, and Kulsoom Abdullah, an amateur weightlifter, to talk about their experiences as American Muslim athletes. In a moment that makes the room laugh, Secretary Clinton steps forward and tries to move the microphone higher so Salaam does not have to bend. Salaam speaks about fasting each Ramadan from the time of his childhood through full pre-season workouts at the NFL. He says, "You don't know what tough is if you haven't fasted during a training camp workout." He also talks about the pride he feels being both American and Muslim, a sentiment that is shared by Abdullah, who also speaks about her personal story. As the remarks end, the images of the athletes continue on the screen. There is a picture of Abudullah holding up her weights and the quote: "Probably the only Ph.D. in electrical and computer engineering who can deadlift 111 kilos."
The stories of these athletes tell a powerful American story -- no matter your religion, race, or background, no matter if you are a new immigrant or from a family who has been here for centuries, you are judged on your ability to perform. On a playing field, it is only excellence and skill that matter. This is one of the reasons why sports have always been an integral part of America's fabric. Athletics remind us all that with hard work and willpower we can overcome any obstacle. They teach us about leadership and the importance of teamwork to achieve a common goal. Whether overseas or on American soil, sports bring people together.

The all-girl Russian punk band, which in February pulled its juvenile, blasphemous stunt on the ambon of one of Russian Orthodoxy's holiest places of worship, has generated an unending stream of twaddle from so many commentators who betray a deep, willfully ignorant grasp of Christianity and a perfectly secular mindset.
Commentator Dmitry Babich on the Voice of Russia observed that "the three female members of the group, who called the Patriarch 'a bitch' and 'the God's excrement' in the holiest of the holy (the altar of Russia's main Orthodox cathedral), were lionized by nearly all Western press."
Did the band members deserve two years in prison? No — a massive over reaction. But imagine if the girls had pulled their punk-stunt in the United States in, say, a mosque or a synagogue or a liberal church, and directed that kind of language at the minister or imam. How would the Western media have reacted? (Even so, they might have qualified for a National Endowment for the Arts grant).
Peter Hitchens points out in "Pussy Riot and Selective Outrage" that the exhibitionists who staged this little exercise in "protest" weren't just interested in free speech: (more…)

Forgiveness...Sacrifice or EscapePosted Friday, May 6, 2011, at 5:04 PM
Forgiveness...Sacrifice or Escape
Unforgiveness is a prison cell where two people dwell
Clutching to their wounded hearts the wrong and the pain
We know what we are supposed to do but we know how we feel
Emotions will lie and fight to keep you where you are
Doubt will raise its ugly head as it prepares to strike
Forgiveness is not a sacrifice but a way of true escape
Where over and over our thoughts are savagely invaded
On the Cross Jesus died because of my offense
Amazing love that died when for Him I did not care
Forgiveness is never easy but it is always right
Taking another's offense and burying it at the Cross
Forgiveness is a key that releases you from your torment
Forgiveness doesn't mean that we forget what was done

Thank God for forgiveness! Without this truth, that He forgives and has forgiven, I would have no hope. His mercy truly endureth forever. As the gospel song by the Hinsons says, "That old alter's a tombstone, and the epitaph's clear, it says grace fought the battle and Sin died here!"

I have the heart of a poet, the eye of an artist, and dress like a bum. I am no one important. No title, no position, no authority. Just a normal person. But I know Jesus. And Jesus knows me. And this relationship has changed my life and continues to change my life. I have no desire to be known but great desire for others to know Jesus. I would like to blog about Jesus, christian living, church, hurting, hope. I do not want to lead this blog but follow it wherever it leads.

Tints, Polarized & Transitions
All of our lenses are polycarbonate and include UV & scratch protection
NOTE: Polycarbonate Polarized Coppertone lenses make the best sunglasses
Transitions is the biggest brand name in Photochromatic lenses, meaning the lenses change from clear to dark when exposed to the Ultra Violet rays of the sun. The lenses are virtually clear when you are inside, or at night, or on a cloudy day. When you are outside on a bright sunny day, the lenses will darken to a medium sunglass shade of either grey (most popular) or brown. When it is partly sunny, the lenses will darken somewhat, depending on the strength of the UV rays present.
Polarized Grey & Brown - A polarized lens is regarded as the best sunglass lens you can buy. Most popular colors are grey and brown. Polarized lenses block glare from various surfaces including the sun, snow, sand, water, cars, and other surfaces that reflect the suns light.In more technical terms, the polarization actually cuts out the light coming from the horizontal meridian while allowing in the light coming in from the vertical meridian. In other words, it blocks the light that reflects in from water, snow etc, reducing glare.
Bifocals will be set at "Recreational Height", slightly lower than everyday bifocal heights.
Premium Progressive: Wider reading channels, newer lens design.
NOTE: Gradient tints are not OSHA approved Blue Blocking, Vermillion, and Welder's Green do not need an additional Tint Color
Tints, Polarized & Transitions?
Note: Don't see the tint you want? Call for more options
Another option in colored lenses is a tint, which is an external coating, and remains constant at all times. Light tints are used primarily for cosmetic purposes to enhance a wearer's looks, while darker tints can be used as sunglasses, however polarized lenses are preferred for sun lenses, as described above. The most common tint colors are grey & brown. Tints are applied to lens materials through a process of absorption. Lenses are immersed into a warm color bath, and depending on the length of time they sit in the tank, emerge in varying shades of darkness.
Anti Reflective Coating
Anti Reflective (or Anti Glare) is a 9-layer multi treated process. AR treated lenses eliminating glare, improving light transmission and reducing smudges & scratches.Anti Glare coating can make lenses seem invisible, eliminates reflections that obscure the eyes. AR stops reflections on front and back surfaces causing annoying distractions that make it more difficult to see and add to eyestrain. Driving comfort and computer use are enhanced by reducing glare occurring in these activities. AR reduces glare and increases light transmission to 99%. This improves general vision especially for high index lenses and transitions that transmit less light.AR Coating has many benefits: Eliminates glare, improves visual acuity & perception, aids computer use, reduces eye-strain & fatigue, aids night driving, makes your lenses virtually invisible & more. Noticabel differences in any glare situation: Sun, Water, Sand, Snow, overhead lighting.
Ultimate Anti-Scratch Coating
For those wishing to protect their lenses with the best anti-scratch lens treatment, SafeVision® offers Ultimate Anti-Scratch Coating (UASC). UASC treated lenses offer consistent, superior protection on both sides of your lenses. UASC integrates glass-like silica particles into its polymer matrix. They impart a hardness, durability and scratch-resistance superior to other scratch-resistant technologies. The polymer matrix is designed to expand and contract with the lens, reducing the opportunity for the lens to crack. The end result of this technology is a tough, yet flexible lens.UASC bonding processUASC's unique polymerization process creates the most durable bond possible on both sides of the lens. This ensures a perfect bond to the lens without any contaminants.SafeVision® offers an optional 1-Year lens discount protection policy with the purchase of UASC.When you purchase UASC treatment, you have the option to purchase one (1) new set of lenses from SafeVision® at half the price paid on your original order, within 12 months of your original order processing date. Your UASC claim form (see below) and glasses must be received within 12 months of your original order processing date.We believe a warranty claim will not be necessary if your UASC treated lenses are properly cared for, and you will enjoy your UASC treated lenses for a long time without scratches. However, should you opt a UASC Warranty claim, the following terms apply:Terms of the UASC Warranty Claim:

Thanks for reading my little comic! It was a lot of fun to make, but it has ended. I just can't commit the time and energy it takes to make story-arc comics every week right now. If that changes in the future, you can be sure I'll get back to it!
In the mean time, check out my new project—The Left Fielder—for more comics, stories and bad advice.
That's it for this arc! As I mentioned before, I'm taking February off from comic-making duties. Why? Because I have a small mountain of new projects to kick off while the year is young, and because I need to recharge. Drawing a serialised comic is a lot harder than I thought it would be!
So thank you for your patience as I start work on other exciting things. Keep up with my progress over at Twitter or Tumblr – I'll be dropping surprises for you!

There are two things I like to find in a family history research tool: (1) a large set of names to search on, ideally, a million or more, and (2) a price tag of absolute zero! You just can't beat free family history searches.
The Military Records Search at Forces Reunited does the job on both counts, though it just squeaks by on #2...you can search for free, and get preliminary results on members of the UK military, both present and past. But if you want the full record, you'll need to subscribe to the Forces Reunited site.
Still, a million-plus records makes for a pretty good, powerful search, and the free results are enough to let you know if there's more information in the dataset that makes it worthwhile to sign up for the full service.
The records themselves are a combination of publicly available information, along with information voluntarily submitted directly by members of the Forces Reunited website. These latter records are a large set of data in their own right, and are not going to be found anywhere else.
There are also good military history search tools at the site for information on different services (Army, Air Force, Marines, etc), or individual corps, regiments, units, or conflicts.
Earlier posts here at Free Genealogy Tools have covered other military databases in the UK that are good family history resources, including the Debt of Honour Register (WWI and WWII deaths), and, stepping back a few centuries, Soldiers and Knights from the 14th and 15th centuries.
Don't forget to also check for your family history at Ancestry.com and NewspaperArchive. These are subscription databases, but they are among the most powerful research tools available for looking into family roots.

Tracing an astoundingly beautiful course from Cuzco to Machu Picchu, the Sacred Valley encompasses the heartland of the ancient Inca Empire with the historic citadels of Pisac and Ollantaytambo standing guard over the opposite edges of this steep-sided river valley. Agriculturally exploited by the Incas, the fertile alluvial plain is fed by the Urubamba River, which passes the ancient villages of Calca and Yucay on its journey downstream to the Amazon. With dramatic Inca ruins, stunning mountain scenery and traditional Andean villages, the Sacred Valley has plenty to entice travellers.
Of all the ruins in Peru, Pisac and Ollantaytambo are perhaps the most evocative. Spectacularly stood on a mountain spur, the fortress of Pisac towers over the colonial village and affords magnificent panoramas across the valley. Centuries-old terraces are lined with rock-cut water ducts and steps and the Templo del Sol can rival anything at Machu Picchu. Constructed around a protrusion of volcanic rock, the temple is believed to have been used to calculate the changing of the season. Further north, the incredible ruins of Ollantaytambo are defended by giant, steep terraces with several stone storehouses built on the surrounding hills. Hemmed in by snow-capped mountains, Ollantaytambo is an awe-inspiring sight and one of the few existing examples of an Inca grid system.
Retaining a traditional Andean charm, the villages of Calca and Yucay line the road between Pisac and Ollantaytambo. The village of Calca is popular for the thermal baths located beneath the suspended glaciers of Mt. Sahuasiray. Late September and early October are a great time to visit when the village comes alive with local fiestas. Yucay is home to the exquisite stone walls of a ruined Inca palace with a number of Inca terraces nearby.
To get you started with planning your holiday to Sacred Valley, we have showcased below some popular itineraries requested by our clients which we hope will inspire your visit to South America

I assert the existence of the "ecumenical-industrial complex" in my book Ecumenical Babel.
On that point, this bears watching: "Ecumenical news agency suspended, editors removed."
From the piece:
Earlier this year the WCC, which has been ENI's main funder and in whose headquarters the agency was based, said it was reducing its financial support for 2011 by over 50 percent.
The WCC is an umbrella body linking Protestant and Orthodox churches around the globe. An acting spokesman for the organisation told Reuters on Monday that the funding decision was "part of a broad redeployment of WCC resources" and had been a "key element in decisions related to the re-shaping of ENI."
The cash cut came in the wake of complaints by the WCC's former Kenyan general secretary Samuel Kobia of "inaccuracy" and "sensationalism" in coverage of the body by ENI — which had run reports from an authoritative German religious news service that he had falsely claimed an academic degree.
That doesn't make for a very merry Christmas for all the ENI staff affected by the cuts.
The full official ENI story related to the "restructuring" after the break. (more…)

George Washington maintained detailed private and plantation accounts throughout his life. During his years of public service he added other layers of public accounts, cash disbursements, and receipts. Although most of his cash memorandum records have not survived, enough of his accounts remain to offer several windows and avenues of access into his complex financial world.
Washington's records show that he took great pride in maintaining clear, concise, and accurate records. During his life Washington was responsible for millions of dollars in public and private expenditures for his household, his wife Martha's estates, his agricultural and milling business enterprises, his land investments, the Virginia militia, the Continental Army, and the federal government. Auditors closely examined his records without finding fault. Although long known to scholars, these records have been seldom used compared with Washington's diaries or correspondence. Disguised by formidable financial formats, these records have hidden detailed, exciting information on how Washington and his private, public, and military households or families lived on a daily basis.
New evidence of the roles of women, blacks, and ordinary laborers is here in abundance. How many people know that Washington had two housekeepers during the Revolutionary War, Mary Smith and Elizabeth Thompson, who traveled with the army, maintaining Washington's military household? How many people know that Martha Custis Washington's widow's estate from her first marriage was maintained as a separate household account from George Washington's? How many people know who actually made the furniture and clothes for Mount Vernon and its inhabitants? Or, what charities were favored by Washington? Or, the foods supplied for Washington's own table, his servants, his slaves, and his public aides? How many people know about the sources from which Washington derived his income? All of these interesting questions and more can be answered in Washington's financial and accounting records.
General Account Books (-TOP-)
Ledger Book 1, 1750 - 1772
Ledger Book 2, 1772 - 1793
These two books contain the basic business accounts of George Washington's estates for forty-three years. A name index for each volume provides the user with access to records showing receipts and expenditures in transactions with individuals. All receipts and expenses for goods and services generated by Washington's Mount Vernon estate can be found here. Mostly in Washington's own hand, these records show everything from the acquisition of land and slaves to the sale of fish, farm products, the work of servants, the operation of mills, and the sale of slaves.
Account Book 1, 1755 - 1766
Washington's correspondence and invoices with his London business "factors" or agents are found in these volumes. Fortunately for scholars and students of social and economic history, Washington's records even include the local London suppliers and artisans who produced the purchased goods.
Account Book 2, 1767 - 1775
This volume wholly in Washington's hand contains his business correspondence with merchants in the American colonies as well as in London. Although bound together in one book, it appears to be two overlapping records: one of general business and the other of land acquisitions.
Invoices, 1766-1773; Miscellaneous Lists, 1755 - 1774
The invoices in this volume are those of goods shipped from London merchants to Washington. They cover everything from needles and pine to bales of cloth and bars of iron. The lists include quit-rents due Lord Fairfax for his lands (rental fees paid by a freeholder to his feudal landlord); county taxes due on lands throughout Virginia; and tithables (that is, church taxes) for adults living on Washington's estates. The range of Washington's landholdings are in evidence in these records. The tithe tax includes information on the race and occupational skills of those taxed.
Weaving Accounts, 1767 - 1771
This volume records weaving done by Washington's on-site cloth weavers, led by Thomas Davis, a white artisan. The records indicate Washington's interest in being self-sufficient but also in turning a profit. In 1770, for example, Davis produced linen, bed ticking, broad cloth, striped woolen, striped silk, striped jersey, and double birdeye, which was valued by Washington at £44.11.0. Washington's use of both slaves and white artisans together are recorded here. Washington operated profitable mills, threshing barns, forges, and a fishery at Mount Vernon, using indentured servants, slaves, and hired artisans. Washington's weavers produced yarn and cloth for his neighbors, as well as for those who worked in Mount Vernon's many operations.
Virginia Colonial Militia Accounts, 1755 - 1758
This is Washington's traditional account book of receipts and expenditures for the period of his military actions. Expenses for British General Edward Braddock's campaign against the French and for the ensuing period of Washington's command of the Virginia frontier forces in the Shenandoah Valley are central to these records. Accounts record expenditures for munitions, recruiting, supplies, and for spying on French and Indian opponents. Records of the receipts in the volume of the same date above are included in these more comprehensive accounts.
Virginia Colonial Militia Accounts: Memorandum Book, 1757 - 1758
This is, in Washington's words, "Memm. how the 4000£ Receiv'd of Mr. Boyd is expended." It is the record of the expenditure of a single monetary disbursement. Alexander Boyd was the paymaster for Virginia's militia during the French and Indian War. Boyd maintained the Disbursement Book for 1758, below.
Virginia Colonial Militia Accounts: Memorandum Book, 1758
In this brief account book, Washington recorded expenditures of funds for the period April 3 through May 24, 1758. Most of his expenditures for this period went for pay for troops, enlistments, horses, and quartermaster supplies.
Virginia Colonial Militia Accounts: Recruiting Funds, 1758
This small volume, as entitled by Washington, is a "Memorandum of money paid to Recruits for the Virginia Regiment," which he commanded. The records for May and June, 1758, show the expenditure of £400 in Virginia currency for recruits to serve on the frontier.
Virginia Colonial Militia Disbursement Book, 1758
This brief book was maintained by Paymaster Alexander Boyd. It contains receipts for cash disbursements for £173, 2 shillings, and 6 pence made during the period June 14-19, 1758. Most of the expenditures were for forage and baggage.
Cash Memorandum Book, 1772 - 1773
Cash Memorandum Book, 1773 - 1774
Cash Memorandum Book, 1774 - 1775
George Washington maintained these accounts of expenditures and minor receipts of cash primarily for his personal rather than his plantation accounts. But because Washington carried this and the other small memorandum books with him, there are some entries for plantation expenditures and for hiring various laborers and artisans as part of his daily activities. Blotter pages separate account pages in these books. Most of these entries were later transferred to his large ledger and account books that begin Series 5 above.
Although these cash books cover the period during which Washington served as delegate to the First Continental Congress, September and October 1774, and his return to Philadelphia May 1775, he did not record his expenditures there in them.
Cash Memorandum Book, 1775 - 1776; 1783 - 1784
Washington maintained this personal account book while a delegate to the Second Continental Congress and through his first year as commander in chief of the Continental Army. His first purchase upon reaching Cambridge to assume command of the Army was "a ribbon to distinguish myself." After January 1776 Washington abandoned his personal account books (like his diaries) for the duration of the war. This cash book resumes in September 1783. His records for the war years can be found in his Revolutionary War Accounts below.
Revolutionary War Warrant Book 1, 1775 - 1776
Revolutionary War Warrant Book 2, 1776 - 1778
Revolutionary War Warrant Book 3, 1778 - 1779
Revolutionary War Warrant Book 4, 1779 - 1780
Revolutionary War Warrant Book 5, 1780 - 1783
Washington's warrant books list written authorizations to receive or deliver goods or money and are signed by Washington. These warrants were used by quartermasters to issue vouchers to acquire forage, supplies, munitions, clothing, transportation, etc., for the use of the American military. These warrants were also generally used to maintain Washington's headquarters.
Warrants could be redeemed by the army paymasters, but most often they were used like cash by the recipient. Warrants, like bills of exchange and vouchers, were often heavily discounted; that is, they depreciated in value. The fortunes of war could be traced through the discount rates on warrants, vouchers, and Continental dollars.
Revolutionary War Expense Account, 1775 - 1783
George Washington refused to accept a salary as commander in chief, instead offering to claim only his expenses. Congress readily accepted this offer in 1775. At the end of the war, Washington compiled his own general accounts from the record books in this Revolutionary War section of Series 5. He calculated that £ was equivalent to $26, which was generous on his part because at times the dollar depreciated to hundreds of dollars to a single British pound sterling. Washington's total expenses of $160,074 included not only his personal accounts but expenses for his headquarters (which he referred to as his "military family"), secret intelligence (spy services), and traveling expenses for his headquarters and guards, commanded by Captain Caleb Gibbs. After a careful examination of these accounts and their supporting documentation, James Milligan, Comptroller General of the United States Treasury, found that Washington was due an additional eighty-nine nintieths of one dollar.
This account book is accompanied online by explanatory notes from George Washington's Account of Expenses While Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army 1775-1783 reproduced in facsimile with annotations by John C. Fitzpatrick, Assistant Chief, Manuscript Division, Library of Congress (Boston; New York: Houghton Mifflin, 1917).
Revolutionary War Accounts, Vouchers, and Receipted Accounts 1, July - December, 1783
These accounts cover the period from July 1, when Washington compiled his official expense accounts for the war, through December 28, 1783, when he submitted his resignation to Congress at Annapolis. This volume is bound together with the following one.
Revolutionary War Accounts, Vouchers, and Receipted Accounts 2, 1775 - 1783
Vouchers for payment, and receipts for funds received for supplies of goods and services provided General Washington and his immediate staff during the war are recorded here. These records were used by Washington to compile his Revolutionary War Expense Account above.
Revolutionary War Household Expense Accounts, 1775
Detailed records of cash expenditures for Washington's immediate "military family" were kept by Ebenezer Austin under the direction of Colonel Joseph Reed. Austin, who was the steward of Washington's headquarters household, supervised the food and laundry services for Washington and his staff. Reed served as Washington's private aide and secretary until his appointment as army adjutant general in 1776. This account book covers the period from Washington's arrival in July at army headquarters at Cambridge, Massachusetts, through October 1775.
Revolutionary War Household Expense Accounts, 1775 - 1776
From November 1775 until Washington's departure from Cambridge, Massachusetts, to New York in April 1776, his military headquarters household accounts were kept by Ebenezer Austin under the direction of Lieutenant Colonel Robert H. Harrison. Harrison, an aide to Washington, succeeded Reed as secretary on May 16, 1776.
Revolutionary War Receipt Book, 1776 - 1780
Upon Washington's arrival in New York in May 1776, these memoranda and records of receipts were maintained by Captain Caleb Gibbs. He maintained them as steward from May 13, 1776, to November 15, 1780. Gibbs was a native of Marblehead, Massachusetts, and had served in Colonel John Glover's Massachusetts Continental regiment before his appointment on March 12, 1776, as commander of Washington's Life Guards. Late in 1780, Gibbs left to serve as a major in the 2nd Massachusetts Continental regiment and was wounded at Yorktown.
Mary Smith and Elizabeth Thompson served successively as housekeepers of Washington's military headquarters in New York. They managed cleaning, laundry, and cooking during this period. Mary Smith was a widow from New York. June 24, 1776, an anonymous letter to New York authorities claimed to identify her as part of a loyalist group planning to assist the British in their forthcoming campaign against New York. She later fled to England and there received from the British government a loyalist pension of £20. She seems to have left Washington's employ, or been discharged, because, on June 18, before the anonymous letter was written, Washington was writing General James Clinton that he was "entirely destitute" of a housekeeper and had heard good reports of an Elizabeth Thompson from Clinton's "neighborhood." He enclosed a letter to Thompson but it has been lost. Thompson, born in 1704, left Washington's employment in December 1781 and in 1785 received for her service a retirement pension from the Continental Congress (Papers of George Washington. Revolutionary War Series, ed. Philander D. Chase [Charlottesville; London: University Press of Virginia, 1993], 5:132n).
Revolutionary War Household Expenses, 1776 - 1780
These memoranda and daily record of expenditures were maintained by Caleb Gibbs and Mary Smith for Washington's military headquarters. They form one of the most fascinating of Washington's financial accounts in the detail they record of life at headquarters. Gibbs and Smith recorded everything from wages paid to Washington's slaves and servants to the cost of individual items of food, such as eggs, chickens, radishes, and lobster. They recorded the purchase of utensils and furniture, as well as items "captured" from the enemy, such as two fruit baskets and two pudding dishes belonging to British General Frederick Haldimand, military governor of Quebec, taken on July 11, 1776.
Revolutionary War Accounts, Vouchers, and Receipted Accounts 1, 1776 - 1780
Revolutionary War Accounts, Vouchers, and Receipted Accounts 2, 1780 - 1784
Revolutionary War Accounts, Vouchers, and Receipted Accounts 3, 1784
Vouchers were written affidavits or promises to pay a specified amount of money. Records of these accounts payable (or amounts owed) were maintained in voucher registers, such as these, by voucher clerks. They were regularly issued instead of money and could be redeemed by military paymasters or quartermasters. Often they circulated as money equivalents and were heavily discounted during the war.
The first two volumes are bound together and contain supporting documents and the final audit of Washington's accounts. These vouchers and memoranda provide the paper proof of expenditures made by Caleb Gibbs, Mary Smith, and others for headquarters household expenses. Also included are correspondence from the Congressional Office of Finance, the Office's final report, and accounts of "monies drawn from the United States" by General Washington during the course of the war.
The third volume includes records of expenses, individual records and vouchers for expenses incurred during the General Meeting of the Society of Cincinnati in May 1784. Washington spent £86, 4 shillings, and 8 pence for the hire of a horse, lodging, and food for himself and servants.
Daily Expenses, 1787
George Washington listed his daily expenses while serving as president of the Federal Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, May through September, 1787. Washington recorded daily expenditures for food, lodging, entertainments and recreation, charitable contributions, and other household expenses for himself and his servants.
Daily Expenses, 1793 - 1794
This record of daily expenses covers the period from September 2, 1793, through April 4, 1794, during Washington's second presidency of the United States. The record was maintained by Bartholomew Dandridge, Washington's secretary and Martha Washington's nephew. Among the expenses recorded, those for wood, books, and horses are most frequent.
Mount Vernon Account Book, 1794 - 1796
William Pearce, manager of Washington's plantations for two years, maintained this record of general business accounts of Mount Vernon from January 6, 1794, through November 7, 1796. The record's name index identifies the people who made up the business side of Washington's life. Although Washington was keenly interested in his plantation management, it is clear from these records that his managers controlled the daily activities of Mount Vernon during Washington's presidency.

Although most of the games were decided by halftime this week, there were still a few surprises out there.
The first upset was the one in Corvallis, where Oregon State upset No. 13 Wisconsin, 10-7. The Badgers had a 33-game winning streak against non-conference opponents snapped in the loss.
Wisconsin wasn't the only team bitten by the upset bug, as No. 8 Arkansas lost to Louisiana-Monroe, 31-34, in overtime. The loss wasn't the only bad news on the night for the Razorbacks, however, as quarterback Tyler Wilson sat out the entire second half due to concussion-like symptoms.
Not good, especially with Alabama coming to town next week.
Speaking of the Crimson Tide, did they do enough to take over No. 1 after USC's defensive struggle against Syracuse?

The pancreas is a crucial organ in a dog's body, as it produces enzymes to assist in food digestion and insulin which regulates blood sugar. Problems with the pancreas can cause very serious illness in dogs, according to VCA Animal Hospitals.
During the holiday season, some pet owners may think it's OK to feed their dogs scraps of table food or special holiday treats. Rich and fatty foods can actually cause harm to the pancreas, resulting in pancreatitis—inflammation of the pancreas.
VCA reports when the pancreas becomes inflamed, it allows digestive enzymes that are meant to enter the small intestine to leak out into the abdominal cavity. This may result in damage to the liver, bile ducts, gall bladder and intestines.
Clinical signs a dog suffering from pancreatitis may exhibit include a decreased appetite, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fever and/or lethargy. Abdominal pain is common and may result in a dog being unable to find a comfortable position to lay in or a dog may cry out when its stomach or back is touched.
If a dog eats something unusual or has any of these clinical signs, its owner should bring it to a veterinarian clinic immediately. The vet may run certain blood tests or perform xrays to support the diagnosis of pancreatitis. According to VCA, a test has recently been designed to more accurately diagnose pancreatitis.
Pancreatitis can be a life threatening condition and some dogs will require extended hospitalization and intensive supportive care. Most dogs with pancreatitis require some fluids and anti-nausea medications. Once food is introduced, a bland, low-fat diet will usually be necessary. Depending on the severity of the pancreatitis, your veterinarian will help you determine if your dog requires a special diet for a longer time period.

Guilty plea in animal cruelty case
ROGERS CITY – A Hawks woman pleaded guilty to a felony charge of animal cruelty or abandonment, nearly eight months after Presque Isle County Sheriff deputies seized horses, dogs and pigs from her farm.
Christine K. Thompson entered a guilty plea at the end of June to cruelty or abandonment of four to 10 animals, a lesser charge than what she originally faced, 53rd Circuit Court Clerk Rose Przybyla said. She entered the plea following a hearing concerning her bond terms.
Circuit Court Judge Michael Mack amended the bond, ordering her to stay off a farm where she had been leasing pasture for the horses, any other land housing or containing animals, or anyone with actual physical control of an animal.
Thompson had been charged with cruelty or abandonment of 10 or more animals, a four-year felony, after deputies took 33 horses, five dogs and two pigs from her Hawks farm in November 2012, according to a sheriff department release. All animals were in various states of neglect, and some horses had to be put down due to their condition. Many have since been adopted, including all five dogs and most of the horses.
In December 2012, District Court Judge Maria Barton ordered the animals to be forfeited, and ordered Thompson to pay more than $13,000 in restitution. She also ordered Thompson not to possess any animals. During her preliminary and forfeiture hearing, Thompson claimed she was boarding horses for others and taking in rescue horses.
In June, Mack went over a list of witnesses and evidence exhibits for Thompson's trial, which was set to begin next week, Przybyla said. Thompson later opted to plead guilty to the lesser felony that same day.
Thompson could face up to two years in prison, a fine of up to $2,000, as many as 300 hours of community service or a combination of the three, according to state law. Her sentencing is set for August, with the exact date to be determined, Przybyla said.

Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: Next Week's Game Plan
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Be careful, it's no longer easy to make money in this market, Jim Cramer warned "Mad Money" viewers Friday as he laid out his game plan for next week's trading.
Cramer said the market will be awaiting the result of the Federal Reserve meeting that begins Tuesday and ends on Wednesday. The last time the Fed spoke, it was a wake-up call to the markets, he said, and he hopes this time the markets are greeted with more tepid comments. If not, be prepared for more ugliness.
Beyond the Fed on Wednesday, Cramer said he'll also be watching the Empire State Fed survey on Monday, where he expects to see numbers that show the economy can't support interest rates that are as high as they are today. The U.S. is still doing better than the rest of the world, he said, but rates have run too far too fast.
On Wednesday, Cramer will also be listening for FedEx
Thursday brings earnings from Kroger
Finally, on Friday it's Darden Restaurants
Profitable Covidian
Breaking up is not only easy to do, it's profitable too, Cramer reminded viewers, as he followed up on a corporate spinoff that's taking place soon. He said shares of Covidian

I consider it a privilege to lead the Atlanta Passport Agency, as we provide a vital service to U.S. citizens with urgent travel needs. Our service to Atlanta area residents and citizens passing through its mammoth airport is illustrated with every application we receive. Just last week, a young man came to us from the airport, where his planned trip to Paris nearly came to an abrupt stop when he noticed his passport had expired. In the past, the young man would have had to have driven more than eight hours to the New Orleans, Miami, or Washington, DC passport agencies to obtain a new passport on such short notice. With the opening of the Atlanta Passport Agency, however, he made a 20-minute drive downtown. I am happy to report that he received a new passport later that evening and was on his way to Paris only a few hours behind his companions.
Emergencies like this happen every day in airports across the country, and the odds of it happening in Atlanta are great, considering that the Atlanta airport serves more than 80 international destinations and is the world's busiest airport in terms of passenger volume. That's why it was so important for Atlanta to have a passport agency. As the last of five passport agencies (public windows were also opened at two existing facilities) made possible by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, the Atlanta Passport Agency offers expedited passport services for U.S. citizens traveling within 14 days or who have an emergency overseas. In many cases, the agency will offer same or next day pick-up options for customers who would otherwise miss their scheduled travel. For applicants needing less urgent assistance, the local network of non-Department passport application acceptance facilities (such as clerks of court, libraries and post offices) will continue to serve Atlanta area residents.
The new agency is conveniently located downtown at 230 Peachtree Street NW. Having visited family in Atlanta, I know that there are approximately 55 thoroughfares containing the name Peachtree in the metro area, but rest assured, our agency is located on the "real" Peachtree Street, which serves as the heart of the city and is the street around which the city has grown. If all else fails, you can take public transportation; the Atlanta facility is directly atop MARTA's Peachtree Center stop. Many critics of MARTA often lament that the transit system "only goes to the airport." Thankfully, residents needing our services will be relieved to find that MARTA now goes to the Atlanta Passport Agency and the airport.
Whether you arrive by car or by train, the Atlanta Passport Agency staff looks forward to serving residents of the region and those traveling through the busy Atlanta airport during the upcoming summer travel season!

In extreme cases I've used a paint solvent and rags followed up with a scrubbing with a grease cutting soap and rinsed well and dryed with rags. Soap and water then rinsed well, dried should do it. There is no need to season it unless you live in the rust belt or by salt air, which i do so I always season my plates but if kept dry rust shouldn't be a problem. Pizza baking is quite different than frying in say a cast iron skillet or a carbon steel wok, the seasoning creates a nonstick surface. Don
First off, it is not black oxide, technically speaking it is blue oxide and except for any loose scale hot rolled blue oxide is inert. The hot roll process exposes the surface to oxygen in the air creating an oxide layer that is pressed into the surface. It can only be removed through either mechanical abrasion or acid stripping. Many on this forum use blued mild steel pans with no ill effects. The truth is blued mild steel is a temporary manufacturing process to reduce the chance of rust, iron oxide forming on the surface.Don

Pueblo police have identified the man shot in his Cherry Lane home on Saturday night.
Deputy Chief Andy McLachlan said Matthew Honner, 42, continues to recover at a Denver hospital.
"He is still alive. I'm not positive on his condition, if he's been upgraded," McLachlan said.
Police said they believe Honner was shot by Andrea Maria Martinez, 28.
McLachlan said Honner and Martinez had been dating, but what led to the shooting was not clear.
"Basically what we've got so far was that there was an altercation between the two. She pulls the weapon and shoots him," McLachlan said.
Martinez was arrested on a warrant for attempted first-degree murder and was being held in Pueblo County jail in lieu of $500,000 bail.

The Christian university began its 185th academic year this fall with a total of 5,008 students taking classes, up by 121 students from a year ago. That total includes students at the main campus in Clinton, MC Law in downtown Jackson, and the new Flowood Center in Rankin County.
"This is a wonderful milestone for Mississippi College," said President Lee Royce. "Our solid academic programs combined with our Christian environment and growing scholarships are strong selling points to MC students."
MC enrollment has climbed steadily, growing from 3,227 students when Dr. Royce arrived as the school's leader eight years ago to 4,887 students last fall to the current 5,000-plus.
"The growth in enrollment is the result of the hard work of everyone at MC," Jim Turcotte, vice president for enrollment management and student affairs, said. "We are focused on the mission of academic excellence and commitment to the cause of Christ, and clearly, that's a message students find appealing."
The record-shattering enrollment numbers came out just days after Mississippi College received a high ranking in the new U.S. News & World Report survey of the nation's colleges. MC was ranked ninth among Southern regional universities in the "Best Colleges, Best Values" category.

Buzz Cut Hairstyle With Design
This man is really sporting his hair pretty good. Hair is buzzed cut and for some added appeal, he put some designs similar to a twirl and some lines. This kind of hairstyle is like a work of art and you need to be precise to create a perfect look.

PE101,Yes, they do make the dough in the store. There are many accounts by people who used to work at Shakey's how they make the skins in the various threads on Shakey's in this forum and the Cracker Crust forum. They do use a sheeter and a cutter pan to make the skins (shells) and the skins are made a short time in advance of when they will be used.
PE101, you didn't mention the area you grew up in. I have never heard of a central commissary supplying ready-made skins in all my years of following Shakey's. But, it may jog the memory of others if you indicate the general area you are at. There could have been a Shakey's area franchisee who ran a commissary.
I know this sounds silly, but would equal amounts of onion powder, and garlic powder give the equal same test perception? What if it is a super, super, super garlic powder? Really.?Your welcome for posting the pics, I just wanted to make sure the pizza s.w.a.t. team wasn't following me.
I could tell just from how well cooked the pizza looked, both top and bottom.
But, still tasteless imo.
So did the pie have that trademark Shakey's taste and smell?
You give me a 1976 Pizza Hut thin, dough made in store, sheeted in store. That is my light at the end of the pizza tunnel.

Dad watched. via Mother murdered son for 'failing to learn the Koran' – Telegraph.
Sara Ege used a stick to beat seven-year-old Yaseen "like a dog" if he couldn't recite passages from the Islamic text.
The beatings were so brutal that the boy died from his injuries, and his mother tried to burn the body to destroy the evidence, Cardiff Crown Court was told.
Yaseen was originally thought to have died in the house fire. But a post-mortem examination showed Mrs Ege had been beating and abusing her little boy in the months leading up to his murder.
In a video recording of her interview with police, Mrs Ege told them: "I was trying to teach him the Koran.
"I was getting more and more frustrated. If he didn't read it properly I would be very angry — I would hit him.
"We had a high target. I wanted him to learn 35 pages in three months.
"I promised him a new bike if he could do it. But Yaseen wasn't very good — after a year of practice he had only learnt a chapter."
The court heard Mrs Ege, 32, a university graduate, and her husband, Yousuf, had enrolled Yaseen in advanced classes at their local mosque.
She also hit him with a hammer, a rolling pin and a slipper, as well as repeatedly punching him, the court heard.
She would allegedly lock him in the shed, tie him to a door, and force him to do press-ups.

Rough on hair
Posted by 5483242500948390047 on Jun 18, 2015
It takes a lot more shampoo than others I have used to be able to get a nice lather. Then it leaves my hair feeling rough and damaged. I have short hair so I normally don't condition every day, but with this shampoo I have to. I probably won't buy it again.

Posted by FataMorgana on May 30, 2011
Very, very, very tasty! First, feel the taste of dark chocolate, then the tooth comes across sweet-sour cherry pieces, and as the aftertaste is light peppercorn. Unusual. Natural product without unnecessary additives. Cocoa content - 55%. Inside the wrapper is printed poem by Thomas Moore

Posted by Danesa on Oct 11, 2013
Really an amazing combination. I love dark chocolate. This one is the best! Very rich chocolate with moist dried cherries and the chili sets it off perfectly. The chillies give the chocolate a hint of spice & the little pieces of cherries give it the slight hint of tartness. The chocolate brings the flavors together without being overly sweet. YUMMY!!!

Racial Disparities in the Incidence of Diabetes in Canada

Implications for practice and research
■ Screening for type 2 diabetes may identify those at risk who are at need for intervention.
■ Body mass index (BMI) cutoff points, as a standard screening measure, may differ among racial/ethic grsoups.
■ Future studies should focus on those diabetes risk factors that are most predictive of diabetes across racial/ethnic groups.
Obesity is a major public health concern and affects approximately 30% of adults in the USA1 and as a result, type 2 diabetes in adults is occurring in epidemic proportions. The total number of people with diabetes worldwide is projected to rise from 171 million in 2000 to 366 million in 2030.2
