He created the 62-foot-long artwork starting in 1992 to say something about his life and the era during which he lived. A nearby marker gives an interpretation of his work.

|Office of Community
Oriented Policing Services
U.S. Department of Justice
For Immediate Release Wednesday, September 13, 2000
WASHINGTON, D.C. - The Department of Justice's Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) today announced the awarding of $237,332 for its Mental Health and Community Safety Initiative grants. These grants are the first increment of nearly a $3 million federal partnership to provide tribes with programs and innovative strategies designed to help meet mental health, behavioral, substance abuse, and safety needs of Native American communities.
"An alliance to address the needs of American Indians and Native Children was forged last year at the White House Conference of Mental Health," said Attorney General Janet Reno. "The resulting initiative is designed to provide tribes with assistance in developing innovative strategies that focus on the mental health, behavioral, substance abuse, and community safety needs of young people and their families."
Today's announcement of the six grants occurred under a coordinated federal initiative-with Departments of Justice, Health and Human Services, Education, and Interior as participants. Programs funded include a range of youth support services in communities and within the schools to implement drug and violence prevention, and to direct appropriate mental health care.
"COPS is proud to provide additional support to the Tribal Community, " said Thomas Frazier, Director of the COPS Office. "This funding is critical to the continued development of the law enforcement infrastructure in Native American communities."
This initiative provides for an anticipated award of $237,332 and will be used to improve public safety with a focus on youth in six communities: Eagle Village Council in Alaska, the Bay Mills Indian Community in Michigan, the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe and the Elko Band Council in Nevada, the Miami Tribe of Oklahoma in Oklahoma, and the Nisqually Indian Tribe in Washington State. The Department of Education has provided $50,000 of this total to implement drug and violence prevention programming in the community or school setting.
Additional funding for this historic initiative is expected over the next several weeks. The Indian Health Service is expected to fund $1.3 million, the Department of Health and Human Services $450,000, and the Department of Justice Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention $1 million towards the initiative. Together, these awards under the Mental Health and Community Safety Initiative total more than $2.68 million in funding to develop innovative strategies that will meet the mental health and community safety needs of American Indian and Alaska native children, youth, and families.

Information About Apples and Bananas
Apples and Bananas is a children's song that teaches about the vowels in the alphabet. It focuses on the letters a, e, i, o, u. Raffi Cavoukian, an experienced global songwriter and singer, recorded a version of the song on his album One Light, One Sun in 1985.
This song was also performed on the tv show Rock With Barney and on several episodes of Barney and Friends. On these episodes a character named Baby Bop sang the song. The lyrics of the song are not easy to recite but are used to teach children how to sound out vowels in words.

text: October 08, 2012 STEUBENVILLE, OHIO—Father Terence Henry, TOR, president of Franciscan University of Steubenville, today announced the final faculty approval of a new liberal arts core curriculum, with implementation set to begin with the 2013-14 academic year."Franciscan University faculty voted to adopt a new core curriculum that reflects our ongoing commitment to academic excellence and the integration of faith and reason. Based on the Western intellectual tradition, our Franciscan educational heritage, and the Catholic mission of Franciscan University, the new core purposefully exposes our students to more of the fundamental knowledge and critical authors they need to become well-educated Catholics," Father Henry said. "I am pleased by our faculty's active collaboration in creating a core that will help the University better serve our students and the Church."Father Henry noted that the University will hire five new faculty members to implement the core and said, "This constitutes a major investment in Franciscan University's mission of forming young men and women committed to the truth and capable of providing leadership in a culture that so badly needs the transforming power of that truth."According to Dr. Daniel Kempton, vice president for Academic Affairs, Franciscan University decided to revise the core for several reasons, chief among them, a desire to be in ever-closer conformity with Catholic Church teaching."The success of our alumni argues that the previous core had much to recommend it, but from our reading of Ex corde Ecclesiae, Pope John Paul II's apostolic constitution on higher education, and of our own Mission Statement, we saw some ways to make a good education better," Kempton said. He explained that while theology and philosophy rank high among Franciscan's top 10 major programs, the University realized that the distributive nature of the previous core made it possible for students to miss some foundational courses. Kempton said, "The new core takes a more rigorous approach that ensures a common grounding for all students not only in theology and philosophy as called for in Ex corde Ecclesiae, but also in literature, American founding principles, history, fine arts, natural science, and social science."Kempton said another factor in the decision to revise the core curriculum related to the fact that students' Catholic values come under attack more today than they did 20 years ago."To prepare our students better to meet the challenges of a more antagonistic culture and society, we realized we could not stay the same from year to year. We have to continually improve," he said. The 45-credit core for BA majors and 42-credit core for BS majors requires all students to take Foundations of Catholicism, Christian Moral Principles, Scripture and Tradition, Foundations of Ethics, Philosophy of the Human Person, Metaphysics, Epic and Self, and Lyric and Dramatic Voices.In addition to the common courses, students may choose from specified courses in other disciplines such as History of Civilization, Catholic Traditions in Visual Arts, General Botany, Psychology and Human Development, American Political Tradition, and American National Government.The vast majority of the core will be taught using existing courses. New courses have also been created specifically to meet the new requirements including the three fine arts courses, Survey of Sacred and Religious Music, Survey of Catholic Traditions in Drama, and Survey of Catholic Traditions in Visual Arts, from which students select one class for the core. In addition, Kempton said, many of the courses will have a significant Franciscan component. "One of the goals for the new core is to make sure students have a better grasp of the very rich Franciscan intellectual and cultural heritage and the Franciscan charism when they leave Franciscan University," he said. Many of the new core classes will be offered beginning in fall 2013, when Franciscan University starts implementing the new core. A transitional period will give current students the flexibility they need to complete their coursework on schedule. Existing faculty will teach most core courses, but Franciscan University has already hired one new professor with two additional hires planned in this year and two more in the 2013-14 academic year. The biggest challenge to developing the new core, Kempton said, arose from the fact that unlike many other faithfully Catholic colleges that are primarily liberal arts institutions, Franciscan University offers more than 40 majors including "serious science programs and professional programs such as education and nursing, many with their own accreditation requirements."He explained, "The core process was driven by two sometimes contradictory goals. First, we wanted the most integrated, strongest possible core, but second, we wanted a core that would do no harm to any existing program. So it was a delicate balance that had to be negotiated with many of our faculties, particularly those in the professional programs."Kempton said he felt proud of how peacefully the faculty handled the core redesign, adding, "Yes, we had spirited debates—we are academics, after all—but we resolved them in a collaborative and thoughtful manner."Father Terence Henry, TOR, also expressed his appreciation. "My sincere thanks to Dr. Daniel Kempton, the Core Curriculum Committee, the entire faculty, the Board of Trustees—especially the Academic Committee of the board—and all those who worked to craft this new core," he said. "It clearly demonstrates the serious University-wide commitment to academic excellence and is truly a wonderful step forward for our students."The Core Curriculum Committee responsible for drafting the core consisted of Dr. John Crosby, Philosophy Department; Professor Shawn Dougherty, Fine Arts Department; Dr. Daniel Kempton, vice president for Academic Affairs (ex officio member); Dr. Daniel Kuebler; Biology Department; Professor Donald Materniak, Business Department; Dr. Carolyn Miller, Nursing Department; Father Daniel Pattee, TOR, Theology Department; Dr. Jonathan Sanford, Philosophy Department; Dr. Michael Sirilla, Theology Department; Prof. Thomas Wilson; associate vice president for Academic Affairs; and John Magee, Academic Affairs.

Wouldn't it be fun to have a pet that makes your neighbors "ooh" and "aah"?
As long as you're willing to give up part of your backyard, you can.
Division of Wildlife Resources biologists are putting close to 40 desert tortoises up for adoption.
The tortoises are being held at a facility in Washington County. Some of the tortoises have been at the facility for almost 10 years.
More information about adopting a desert tortoise in Utah is available in the Desert Tortoise Adoption booklet. The free booklet is available at www.wildlife.utah.gov/pdf/dt_adopt.pdf.
If you'd like to adopt one of the tortoises, or if you have questions, please call Cory Noble, native aquatic species biologist with the DWR, at 801-538-4746.,
A unique pet
Listed as threatened on the federal Endangered Species list, most of the tortoises were found after people removed the tortoises from their native homes. (Once a wild tortoise is taken from the wild, it can't be released. Releasing it could introduce diseases into Utah's wild tortoise population.)
Even though desert tortoises require some room, Krissy Wilson says caring for one is easier than caring for other pets. "They don't bark or chase cats," says Wilson, native aquatic species coordinator for the DWR. "Also, they're in hibernation six months out of the year."
To adopt a desert tortoise, you need a fenced area that's at least 15 feet by 10 feet. Tortoises also need burrows, so you'll need to build some. And you'll need to plant dandelions, clover and other plants the tortoise can eat.
Even though it takes work to provide a tortoise with a place to live, Wilson says it's worth it. "Every desert tortoise I've ever seen has had its own unique personality," she says. "You'll notice that after you get your tortoise home."
Wilson says some of the tortoises contracted an upper respiratory tract infection while they were in the wild. She says the infection only affects tortoises. The infection cannot be passed to humans or pets.

Skip to comments.Is the Obama campaign sending the law after critics?
Posted on 09/26/2008 6:05:24 PM PDT by markomalley
Have I gone insane, or is KMOV in St. Louis, Missouri, actually reporting that "Senator Barack Obama's presidential campaign is asking Missouri law enforcement to target anyone who lies or runs a misleading television ad during the presidential campaign"?
The report goes on to say that "prosecutors and sheriffs from across Missouri are joining something called the Barack Obama truth squad."
A video of the news broadcast can be found here.
Look, politicians are all about lies. It may be annoying (I find it entertaining), but that's for their opponents and good-government groups to counter -- not law enforcement. That's especially true since whether or not criticism is "misleading" is open to debate. What's being said may be simply a different interpretation, a bit of spin -- or a better version of the truth than candidates and their friends like.
Even if the officeholders joining the "truth squad" are nominally stepping out of their official roles in order to put on their (political) party hats and play politics, it's inappropriate. They wield too much power to use it to wag their fingers at people who say un-nice things about political hopefuls. Prosecutors and sheriffs are, after all, normally thought of as people with the clout to put their targets behind bars.
Somebody, please drop me a note to tell me that the station has it all wrong.
By the way, if the report is accurate, it fits all too well with the legal threats the Democratic candidate's campaign is leveling against TV stations that run NRA ads critical of Barack Obama. John Lott, a noted economist and firearms scholar, has copies of the Obama campaign's cease-and-desist letters on his Website. He also defends the content of the ads (emphasizing the debatable nature of "misleading.")
Das Fuhrer Obama always speaks the truth!
is no one paying attention?...
where is Rush?..Hannity?....where is Beck and where is BOR!
"I for one welcome our new Muslim overlord"
-Kent Brockman
The Brown Shirts are becoming Official. It is getting to be less funny.
Arrest Obama. He seldom tells the truth.
Obama is a natural born totalitarian.
Saul Alinsky tactics.
It's Barack Obama—"in your faces". Between this, the WGN incident, the Obama camp asking stations to remove an NRA ad critical of him, and threatening the licenses of television stations who aired a commercial linking him with Ayers, it's all part of a very disturbing trend.
I've heard both Rush and Hannity on this issue, bigger question is WHERE ARE WE?? We need to push back, question those people, see if there are contact points which there are.
"Missouri Law Enforcement"? What's that? State police, DAs, CAs, local police, which? Need some more specifics, what "instrument" do they have in hand, what legal document, what court order, which court?
I've been in that business a long time, those people are not untouchable, many operate under the "color of law" an assumption that gets many of them in hot water, especially without true authority backing up their demands.
Remember the old hippie slogan "Question Authority"? That goes both ways, for conservatives as well as hippies.
Just wait: If Der Fuhrer Baraq Hussein mohammed 0bama takes office,this will be common practice.
Then some will learn the tactics of insurgency...
liberal fascism.
I am seriously starting to lose it. This guy is pure evil.
Are the jackboots standard issue or do they come in the package with the brown shirts?
Did somebody say Schutzstaffel?
Did somebody say Schutzstaffel?
OK - take a deep breath. In, out.
It's St Louis (a cesspit to be sure, for the most part)
Who? St. Louis City Circuit Attorney Jennifer Joyce and St. Louis County Circuit Attorney Bob McCulloch. What? - they are threatening to bring libel charges against those who speak out falsely against Barack Obama.
(No, they are not, they are as white as you - no, really!)
NO - go to the KMOV website, the have the photos up.
Deranged - likely. A threat, no.
Put away the AKs, put down the torchs and pitchforks.
Just make sure that when they come up for re-election, they end up un-employed.
ASOC out!
Get an anti bumper sticker and drive by the police sta. a lot. Get a ticket or arrested and sue hell outa em. Money will come in handy during this recession.
Remember that scrawny little wise-ass kid in Junior High who always ran to the Principal's office whenever anyone actually challenged him to a real fight? It appears he went to Harvard and is now the Democratic Party's candidate for President. What a pussy.
Obama's little "Chicago Communist Mob" group was able to force his opponents off the ticket in Illinois fairly easily. NOW, they're up against the entire Country, not just one little State. It isn't easy to coerce an entire Country that's not already totalitarian to back off and allow "the one" to be "the only one" on the ticket.
Obama wants to win the election, I'm not sure he really understands what it means to be President. It's not like being the 12th Caliph, King of the Realm. I really do not think he actually knows what a President really does.
Maybe John McCain could ask him.
Just watched the kmov video about this.
It enforces my resolve against all things obama.
Imagine what life would be like under Prez 0bama. Free Republic shut down. Members blacklisted. Maybe re-educated. Think it can't happen?
unf@cking believable!!! These tools literally are appearing in media stories promising to prosecute people who disagree with Obama.
No mention of lies about McCain huh???
I watched the KMOX video. My take is that these two politicians are in the tank for Obama and are IMPLYING that their self-appointed role of truth squad carries the force of law. It doesn't. These are just two politicians who are trying to bluff people. If they really were to try to charge people it would be a clear abuse of power and office.
It reminds me of all the anti-gun police chiefs. They believe that people will assume that their office lends some credibility to their positions.
It's quite shameful really.
Hopefully the American people see a glimpse of what a Muslim president acts like. Or do they even care?
its the weekend....but I better be seeing Hannity and Rush and Bor and all of them attacking this loudly .....we need a national outrage and an national response.....
fight fire with fire.....
it doesn't matter if they actually act on what they are saying..
this is fascist......pure and simple.....
I see we have the boot lickers trying to calm us down though....
"Did somebody say Schutzstaffel?"
They also mentioned the "Final Solution". It is not Obama who is frightening, it is the lawyers and cops who blindly follow him and allow him to get away with it. Shades of Naziism and Communism. "Kristallnacht" will not be far off.
I watched the news cast on video. I can't beleive it wasn't a satire... And said with a stright face! And that the sheriff was joining the group???
Precisely. OF course no mention of them going after ALL lies, just ones they perceive are against Obama. Hello, are any American citizens home? Wake up!
An exclamation point on everything in your post! BUMP
But Jews will go for Osama in overwhelming numbers. Go figure.
They are intelligent lemmings but logic seems to be lacking.
Nope. The US would go the way of the USSR instead, the second Illinois lawyer having undone completely the work of the first.
Chavez, Stalin, Hitler, Lenin, Mao, Kim Jong-il, Obama....
To Obama any opinion that is in disagreement with his is labled as Lies, Hate speech, Racist. America is dying while we watch. TAKE ACTION.
Obama is green. Oops, did I say that out loud? Good thing I live in Michigan. Wait, someone just pulled into the driv...

Hoping for the crash and burnPosted Wednesday, August 6, 2008, at 11:35 PM
Great, he's a Jet now. Can he just go away?
Brett Favre has tarnished his reputation forever in my mind. He had an almost-perfect ending to his storied career and then he decided to be wishy-washy about his retirement.
My respect for him is gone. I now have a desire to see him throw twice as many interceptions as touchdowns and lose his starting job after a poor performance against the Rams in Week 10.
When it happens, I will laugh. I will throw out 10,000 "I told you so"s. I will root for Chad Pennington (provided he's not traded himself) to step in and beat the Patriots in Week 11 and squeak the Jets into the playoffs at 9-7 with a 4-2 finish, giving "Gang Green" the playoff berth they thought Favre will lead them to.
Heck, a wild-card round win wouldn't be too bad, either. Then Favre can retire the way he deserves to: as a bench player nobody has a need for anymore.
Bitter? Yes. Packer fan? No. Just an angry football fan.

1 pound shrimp, deveined & peeled
1 can pineapple chunks or the equivalent in fresh pineapple
Steamed rice or vermicelli noodles
1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
3 scallions, chopped
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 Tbsp. pineapple juice
2 tsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. crushed red pepper
1 tsp. kosher salt
2 medium carrots, julienned
1 medium onion, julienned
1 kohlrabi, julienned (or use 2 zucchini or 3 smaller summer squash)
3 baby bok choy, julienned
other vegetables, such as broccoli, mushrooms or peppers, julienned
2 Tbsp. teriyaki sauce
1 tsp. crushed red pepper
reserved marinade from shrimp
salt, to taste
3. If using rice, start cooking the proper amount of time prior to mealtime. If using vermicelli, follow directions on the back of packaging. Vermicelli is normally boiled for 3-4 minutes, drained and then placed in cold water to cool down. Lukewarm noodles make this dish much nicer in the summer.
4. About 10 minutes before your base is done, heat one large saute pan (or wok), and a smaller one for the shrimp.
5. Remove shrimp from marinade and mix in with pineapple chunks. Take remaining marinade and mix in with vegetables, 2 tablespoons of teriyaki sauce, and a tablespoon of red pepper flakes. Don't salt to taste yet--there was raw shrimp in the liquid!
7. Cooking time should take approximately 5 minutes. Watch your shrimp, flipping when cooked on one side. The vegetables should be hot, but maintain their crunch, so don't overcook.
8. Serve vegetables and shrimp on top of the rice or noodles.

Confirmed Spoiler
Akatsuki Blue HairNaruto spoiler [note: he keeps saying "nurupo" throughout the spoiler, not "naruto"]
Deidara's explosion shocks both Naruto's group and Akatsuki. They remark on it's enormity.
It then goes to Akatsuki's group. Kisame-san and Itachi are having a conversation with a strange voice.
Kisame-san (with a cool expression)- "Well well, another one of us bit the dust. And I thought he was pretty strong too. There's something I seem to be forgetting though..."
Strange Voice- "It looks like Tobi died too."
Kisame- "Right, right, Tobi, that was it. Still, I'm surprised that the coward wasn't able to outrun that...sure must have been one hell of a jutsu."
Suigetsu calls over to Sasuke with Kuchiyose no jutsu (summoning technique) Manda comes out. Sasuke applies a genjutsu to Manda and enters his body.
Sasuke-san looks messed up though.
And then, finally what looks to be the Akatsuki leader makes an appearance. He calls over to the Akatsuki woman, "Pein" [pronounced "Payne"]
The Akatsuki woman comes out afterwards. However, now it seems as if there's someone else above them who's pulling the strings.
The one behind the scenes tells the Leader: "You will be the one to capture Naruto. Failure is unacceptable."
And it ends with those orders being given.
Akatsuki Leader

Old Testament Reading
Document Actions
Proverbs 10:31-11:12
The mouth of the righteous brings forth wisdom, but the perverse tongue will be cut off. The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable, but the mouth of the wicked, what is perverse. A false balance is an abomination to the LORD, but a just weight is his delight. When pride comes, then comes disgrace; but with the humble is wisdom. The integrity of the upright guides them, but the crookedness of the treacherous destroys them. Riches do not profit in the day of wrath, but righteousness delivers from death. The righteousness of the blameless keeps his way straight, but the wicked falls by his own wickedness. The righteousness of the upright delivers them, but the treacherous are taken captive by their lust. When the wicked dies, his hope perishes, and the expectation of the godless comes to nought. The righteous is delivered from trouble, and the wicked gets into it instead. With his mouth the godless man would destroy his neighbor, but by knowledge the righteous are delivered. When it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices; and when the wicked perish there are shouts of gladness. By the blessing of the upright a city is exalted, but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked. He who belittles his neighbor lacks sense, but a man of understanding remains silent.

Perfect booths
"I am a Canadian snowbird and those booths will be perfect for late spring or early autumn in Canada when temperature is cool and where there is still snow in April. They have a great look: many colors instead of being black or Brown. They are very comfy although I would have expected the inner sides (over the ankles) to be of a smoother fabric."

The Ground Beneath Our Feet:
The Nikola P. Prokopovich Papers on Land Subsidence
Previously on display in the Special Collections Display Cases from Fall Quarter 2011 - Winter Quarter 2012. Now, presented here as a web exhibit.
Click on any image for an expanded view.
Exhibit prepared by Liz Phillips, Manuscript Archivist
Dr. Nikola P. Prokopovich (1918-1999) was born in Kiev, Ukraine and came to the United States in 1950. He made his home in Sacramento, where he worked as a geologist with the Bureau of Reclamation's Mid-Pacific Region. Dr. Prokopovich worked out of the Sacramento office from 1958-1986, investigating the geology and geochemistry of California statewide water projects, including the Central Valley Project and the Solano Project. Because of the wide-ranging impact of the Central Valley Project, the Prokopovich papers will be of interest to a number of disciplines: geology; environmental science and policy; water science; soil science; and history, especially history of agriculture.
Prokopovich was an avid field geologist and spent as much time as possible on-site, collecting his own data. He was particularly interested in the engineering geology of the Central Valley Project's canals and dam sites and in the effects of both the state water projects and field irrigation on the surrounding landscape. The collection includes draft reports, memoranda, and published writings, as well as nearly 25,000 slides and photographs documenting his work and the land around his work sites.
The Central Valley Project
The Central Valley Project (CVP) is a Bureau of Reclamation federal water project designed to provide irrigation and municipal water to California's Central Valley. Reservoirs in the northern half of the state regulate and store water and a series of canals, aqueducts, and pump plants transport it to the San Joaquin Valley and its surroundings.
Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Valley_Project (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Valley_Project)
Land subsidence occurs when large amounts of ground water have been withdrawn from certain types of rocks, such as fine-grained sediments. The rock compacts because the water is partly responsible for holding the ground up. When the water is withdrawn, the rock falls in on itself.
Source: http://ga.water.usgs.gov/edu/earthgwlandsubside.html (http://ga.water.usgs.gov/edu/earthgwlandsubside.html)
Hydrocompaction is the settling and hardening of land due to application of large amounts of water for irrigation.
Source: http://www.epa.gov/climatechange/glossary.html (http://www.epa.gov/climatechange/glossary.html)
Processing of the Nikola P. Prokopovich Papers was generously funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, and administered by the Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR). The University of California, Davis Special Collections was awarded a Cataloging Hidden Special Collections and Archives grant from 2010-2012, "Uncovering California's Environmental Collections," in collaboration with eight additional special collections and archival repositories throughout the state and the California Digital Library (CDL). Grant objectives included processing of over 33 hidden collections related to the state's environment and environmental history. The collections document an array of important sub-topics such as irrigation, mining, forestry, agriculture, industry, land use, activism, and research. Together they form a multifaceted picture of the natural world and the way it was probed, altered, exploited and protected in California over the twentieth century. Finding aids are made available through the Online Archive of California (OAC).

Comments: These are amazing. I've worn the Salomon Crossmax for several years, but then tried these this year and love them. They are more narrow in the toe box than the Crossmax with more support/cushion and better traction and grip especially in wet conditions including snow/slush/ice. Can't wait to hike in them
From: clygirl
Comments: This is my 5th pair of Salomon Speedcross trail runners. I am typically a 7.5 in all shoes, but found the first pair of Salomons ran a little larger than all my other running shoes. So, I went with a size 7. Since this first pair, I have ordered 4 more in a size 7 and found the sizing to be a 1/2 up or down in each pair. My red pair is very snug and fits like a 6.5 while this latest black/pink pair is the largest of the bunch and fits like a size 8. Even with the wonky sizing, this is the most comfortable and stable trail shoe I have ever purchased. I need serious traction for quick turns and changes of direction required in the sport of dog agility. I also trail run in them 3-4 times per week in dirt, mud and snow.
From: Monica, Flagstaff, AZ
Comments: I love this shoe. First time using this brand typically have gone with Nike shoes and these are way better and cost the same. I love the comfort and the design. I ran in them all winter long in snow, rain, sleet etc, and didn't once have a problem with warmth or getting my feet wet. Would for sure buy another shoe from this company/brand.

Grief is a natural response to any loss, whether is be the death of a loved one, a miscarriage, divorce, loss of a job, loss of a pet or any other loss. Therapy can help you understand the natural process of grief and that while there are patterns to the grief process, your progress through your own grief is unique. You can learn coping strategies to help you move through the emotional pain of loss. We all search to find meaning in painful and traumatic events. Therapy provides a safe place for you to honor your grief while you explore the emotional turmoil surrounding loss.

Loss is the inevitable that takes us by surprise. The surprise is that it actually happened and then the mysterious journey can be very confusing. Ranging from feeling like you are on a roller coaster to feeling mired in depths of sadness. This journey is made all the more complex if the relationship was unresolved or conflicted. Loss is inevitable and everyone faces it. There is no one path. Many people will believe their is one path and then expect you to be on it or over it. Your path is your path. It is unique and it might have unique stumbling blocks. Your not alone.

I know personally how devastating grief is. When we lose someone or a relationship we love, it feels as if we will not be able to ever recover. Sometimes we get stuck. With a directed grief approach, you can learn how to manage your loss and move through the process. By discussing your feelings and understanding about grief, we will release the pain more quickly and retain what was beautiful, helping you move towards acceptance.

Losing a loved one, a person, a pet is like losing a part of ones self. Coping with loss is not a simple, cookbook process. No one can tell you how to manage and while some people talk about "stages of grief" it will never be that simple. Some people can find solace in their religious faith, their faith's scriptures, their faith's rituals, their faith communities. For others these resources sound and feel hollow. They need a person or people to walk with them and talk with them on the journey after death, separation or loss. I am willing to work with you throughout that process.

Grey Matters International and the work of Kevin J. Fleming, Ph.D approaches issues of grief & loss through the lens of innovation----instead of growing the same neural networks responsible for the pain in weekly therapy sessions, we reset the brain to move forward quicker and efficiently by working on the stuck limbic system so as to empower the person with more success and traction. For no one wants to stay in a grief mode for too long; but when you don't include the brain in your work with someone, you risk describing the water to them while they drown and calling it success.

Le Corbusier: An Atlas of Modern Landscapes
Published byon
"Le Corbuser: An Atlas of Modern Landscapes", an exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art, is described as the first major exhibit of the work of Le Corbusier in the US. The exhibit, which will be at the museum through September 23rd of this year, is accompanied by a publication of the same title by Jean Louis Cohen with an introduction by Barry Bergdoll, the Philip Johnson Chief Curator of Architecture and Design at the museum. The exhibit contains numerous original drawings and contemporary documents as well as the large scale color photos, which are the work of Richard Pare. The publication with the eponymous title has a large number of essays by Le Corbusier scholars from across the globe and includes with separate entries the archival material and color photographs in the exhibit.In their respective opening essays Cohen and Bergdoll explain the title of both the book and the exhibit. In Bergdoll's words: as a reflection of a "new generation of research, analysis, and interpretation of Le Corbusier's practice using the metaphor and, in part, the form of an atlas, as we have done here, is not, however, to return to the notion of an international practice.." but rather as an acknowledgement of a "profound relationship between practice and place in Le Corbusier's life and work". Cohen aside from the discussion of the meaning of the landscape in this context returns to the metaphor of the atlas in three ways: in the literal sense as a reflection of Corbusier's extensive travel and his projects in many parts of the world – the publication is organized geographically -, as a metaphor for his process of observation, analysis, engagement and design and finally by evoking Atlas, the giant carrying the globe. He writes: "..it is hardly excessive to evoke the mythological figure of Atlas to describe the activities of a man who shouldered epic endeavors to transform the world." The accompanying essays constitute the majority of the text includes the work of a great many Le Corbusier scholars in different parts of the world and, in that sense adding to not only the concept of the atlas but also highlighting the level of global interest and scholarship. In many ways the publication in both its title and its content presents through its very existence an argument for the significance and cohesion that should underpin the multi-national World Heritage nomination that has been proposed previously on several occasions. While piquing curiosity, the remarkable scholarly content and the unique assembly of original materials displayed leave for many preservationists something unaddressed. What is the status of the buildings, their condition and how have they been preserved or restored? Some of the buildings in the exhibit and book have been or are the subject of extensive on-going (interpretative) restorations and improvements. With this much original documentary material at hand it would have been interesting to see how that documentation guided (or not) that process. Maybe that is the next exhibition and publication.

Really comfortable, stylish boots!
"I love these boots! They're very comfortable which is a main priority in my shoes. Not only that but they're also really stylish and for a short person like me, add height (but not uncomfortably so). They're very light and easy to walk in for long distances. I am in college so I walk everywhere and these boots are the first that I don't get a footache when walking around campus. These boots also seem pretty insulated and keep my feet and legs pretty warm when I've worn them thus far. I also got them on sale for about 50 bucks which was amazing since I was planning on buying them for 70 at famous footwear.My only complaint would be that they run a little tight for my calf size but that makes them very snug. They come right up to the knee too so sometimes the boot hits the back of my knee but this is not a big deal. Also, my boots came with a small white speck on them which was really obvious with the dark brown of the boot. However, I just covered it with brown marker and it's completely unnoticeable.Gotta give these babies a 10/10 and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a nice pair of versatile boots."

so comfy
"these are great with jeggings/leggings and are so comfy. They look chic and are kinda a mix of a riding/biker/heeled boot so versatile and can even wear with a skirt! only complaint is that they rub agaist my knee, but I forget about it after a few minutes and can unzip a little and it helps, but it's really not too bad!"

"it looks exactly like the picture. very comfortable. i only wish there was more grip on the bottom for more slip resistance, and the material is somewhat thin, but as expected for the price. So I suggest to store it with some sort of paper to fill it out so it keeps its shape and prevents bend marks.All in all very great boots. They are versatile for so many outfits. Just don't where them in the rain, it'll def ruin the material, as I experienced with other similar boots."

Awesome looking shoe
"These shoes look really really great. I love the color and style of these even more in person. The Sperry Ranger Moc is a great looking boat shoe that is sometimes hard to find in this exact style. As far as comfort, they don't seem to rub too much like most of these type shoes do at first (on me), although they are a bit stiff, they just need to be broken in a bit."

Posted on 05/30/2007 10:04:56 AM PDT by Between the Lines
On May 23, 2007, the White House, silently and without any fanfare, released an official White House photo of Vice President Dick Cheney and his wife, Lynne Cheney, welcoming their sixth grandchild, Samuel David Cheney, into the Cheney fold.
The beautiful little tyke weighed in at 8 lbs., 6 oz. and was born at 9:46 a.m. at Sibley House in Washington, D.C.
What is extremely troubling is the official White House caption that appears underneath the photo on the official White House website:
... His parents are the Cheney's daughter Mary, and her partner, Heather Poe. White House photo by David Bohrer.
Since when have two homosexual women been able to naturally procreate?
Fact is Mary Cheney, the Vice President's daughter - in one way or another - received a male's sperm. She is the biological mother, parent number one, and some man, somewhere out there, is Samuel David's real biological father, parent number two.
Unlike the official White House photo caption, a man and a woman, a Daddy and a Mommy, are Samuel David Cheney's REAL biological parents.
Then who is Heather Poe?
Heather Poe is Mary Cheney's live-in lesbian lover. She may act like a parent, she may treat the baby as a parent, she may love this baby with all of her heart, but in this reality we all live in, Heather Poe is NOT the baby's real parent. She has NO biological connection to the child whatsoever. Some man, the baby's real Daddy, is the child's other REAL parent.
If the Vice President and his wife Lynne are joining their daughter Mary in playing this homosexual game of "house," then all have chosen their roles and designated lesbian lover Heather Poe as the "Daddy."
Everyone knows there can only be one REAL biological Mommy. We are all grown adults. Playing "house" is a game for children, not for The White House or the Vice President and his wife.
What is so hypocritical of this Administration is its "double-speak."
President George W. Bush held several presses conferences calling for a Federal Marriage Amendment to protect the God-ordained institution of marriage between one man and one woman, while homosexuals pushed for the union of two men or two women to be equally recognized as real "marriage."
However, the President's number two, right hand man, Vice President Dick Cheney, clearly rebels against his superior, makes a public mockery of the President and the current Administration he is supposed to represent, and clearly holds to a different set of moral standards and beliefs.
When President Bush stood on the victory stage several years ago after being elected into office by values voters, Mary Cheney was on stage as well with her lesbian lover, Heather Poe. It was a slap in the face to the values voters who had just elected the duo into office. That wound has never healed.
While this little innocent child Samuel David Cheney deserves every fighting chance at life, the sins of two women, Mary Cheney and Heather Poe, have deliberately denied the Vice President's grandson one of the most basic human rights of all: the right to a Daddy and a Mommy.
I say shame on the White House, shame on the President and shame on the Vice President for allowing such a caption to be "officially" added onto the White House website and such a beautiful photo of two happy grandparents and their new grandchild.
I guess we can tragically and officially say both the White House and Bush Administration have officially recognized the sinful sexual unions of homosexuals, as well as recognized and embraced the tragedy of the social experiment of homosexual parenting.
Why not? They recognize illegal border invaders...
I think they are officially recognizing little Samuel David. Period.
These aren't good arguments at all. Is adoption also "playing house" because the parents are not biological? Doesn't make sense.
I'm with you.
So he has no father?
This thread is being hijacked. Remain in your seats. We are returning to the airport.
I think you are correct. I think Dick Cheney handles this situation in exemplary fashion.
You can still love someone even when you don't agree with them. The Cheney's obviously love their daughter, and will love their grandson.
I think the Bush White House has lost all sense of direction.
Yes, it is.
I've seen nothing to indicate the Cheneys disagree with their daughter on her lifestyle.
What is so hypocritical of this Administration is its "double-speak."
true, but other issues this WH and administration double-speak about are downright dangerous and subversive to our country and our way of life.
LOL! Good one!
This shouldn't be turned into a political statement.
I was thinking the same thing. My wife and I have two adopted sons and I'm sure they consider us their "real parents."
You could turn this argument around and argue that a biological father who deserts the mother before the child is born is a "real parent." That wouldn't make any sense at all.
That being said, the caption under the picture of Cheney's grandchild could have said "Cheney celebrates, along with his daughter's partner, the birth of Mary's child..."
I think they are reading into it to much as well. They act as though Cheney should have nothing to do with his daughter or grandson... not exactly Christian-like (before anybody points it out, yes, I know, Cheney has made it clear he has no problem with homosexuals marrying - I'm not arguing that one o way or the other, just that Cheney and his wife have acted appropriately in regards to their daughter/grandson).
No wonder I'm confused. I was raised in a foster home by two people who later adopted me when I was around three and half years old. For as long as I can remember, I have referred to these two people as "mom," "dad," and "my parents." Thanks to the Christian News Wire, I now realize that my real parents are not the people who fed me, housed me, clothed me, and cared for me when I was sick -- because I do not have a biological connection to them -- but rather, my real parents are two strangers who I know nothing about other than they were so dysfunctional that social services removed me from them and placed me in foster care and eventually initiated proceeding to terminate their parental rights, which they did not bother to oppose.
Should Dick Cheney strangle the kid when none are looking? What would happen if they refused to see the child?
There is a good chance that the "father" will split before too long, it happens lot in these types of partnerships.
The child deserves love and forgiveness and will need more support from the grandparents than one raised in a healthily normal family. It looks like Cheney and his wife will make a good set of grand parents.
The paernts are the mother and whoever donated the sperm.
Most definitely.
What would you have him do, specifically?
Agreed. Weak argument.
I have no qualms with the Cheneys welcoming this little angel into their family. My only question is, have they issued official pictures when their other 5 grandchildren were born?
Congratulations to Dick and Lynne Cheney on the grandbaby. He is theirs; they love him.
What are they supposed to do?
I agree. Dick Cheney will be a loving grandfaher and will continue to be a loving father. Disowning one's children because they are gay is not an act of love. Being a good father, and in this case a grandfather, too, in spite of his daughter's 'preference' is a very big act of fatherly love. I mean, come on, this baby has Dick Cheney as a grandfather!
THank you for asking that question.
I will enjoy crickets chirping as I wait for some of these poster to reply.
Bush is morphing into more of a democrat before our eyes. What's the surprise?
Reading this as sometype of endorsement is ridiculous.
This forum certainly has people who feel strongly about issues, but trying to read something like this into a family photo shows a Kerry-like spin on Lynn.
I would say they are definitely reading into it AND quite a dishonest title if you ask me. That is a stretch at best. I was expecting to read something about how George Bush added something on the website praising gay marriage or something. This is just a total distortion of the truth. Man I think this website and whoever the author is wanted George Bush to spit on Vice President Cheney or something. I am not for all this nonsense either, but to lie and distort is not right.
Let no one suggest he is the second coming.
No, you have The Parents Group who wrote this article to thank for this. Christian News Wire neither writes nor edits the articles on it site. It is merely a site where Christian groups can present their own press releases.
If Seinfeld has to say "not that there's anything wrong with that" in an episode discussing homosexuality, how about if our representatives, like Bush, are required to say, "not that we recommend children being raised in same-sex arrangements"?
What's good for the goose...
Of course this won't happen, because it's not PC. But it is PC that is killing us as a nation and helping to split the traditional family apart, which is the bedrock of our nation.
No, we'll all just smile and say automatically, like Pavlov's dogs whenever we mention what doesn't look right and what history has proved to be harmful to people and nations, "not that there's anything wrong with that."
I imagine the White House has photographers on call every working day, as various photo ops occur. Lynne Cheney visited her father with his grandson, and the VP asked that a picture be taken.
I doubt whether Bush had anything to do with it, or that it means anything except that the Cheneys wanted a picture and a photographer was handy.
The photographer is paid by the government and puts his usual heading on it, to identify the photo in the usual manner.
Thanks for the clarification.
>>Personally I think they are reading way too much into this, but I would agree that the caption to the photo isn't in line with Whitehouse policy.<<
I'm not sure what policy this violate. Adoptive parents are frequently called parents. Its also just a courtesy to the child to not dwell on the lack of marital status or gender of the adoptive parent - its not the child's fault.
Policy goes to Federal recognition of gay marriage and I think the Bush43 administration has been pretty clear on that.
but I would say something like this...
"I love my new grandchild and am blessed. I also love my daughter too, but I disagree with her decision to have a homosexual relationship and to raise a child in a homosexual relationship."
I have no suggestions on what the Cheneys should do in this situation, but I can tell you what I did.
I have a gay daughter and have been loving and accepting of her and her partner, but not of their lifestyle. We have made clear our opinions, but my wife and I do not make life uncomfortable for them because of our opinions.
When they announced that they were going to try and get pregnant, we sat them down and explained our position. We explained why we believed that children should have a mother and a father and told them that, should they go though with this, we would sue for custody of our grandchild. We assured them that living in the South that we had a better than even chance of winning.
Though they were not happy with our decision, they still visited and were welcomed and we have always been welcomed at their home. They thought of moving elsewhere but didn't like any of the places with more liberal laws. (A lesson in how liberalism ruins a place) It has now been eight years and still no babies.
You maybe right. About the author:
Bennett lived the homosexual lifestyle for over 11 years with over 100 partners, until he finally left it all in 1992. Today, Stephen is happily married to his wife Irene of almost 14 years. The couple has two beautiful children, a young boy and a girl.
Bennett has appeared on almost every major network and cable news program, advocating for the traditional family, the protection of children and proclaiming the truth about homosexuality.
I believe that also, but do you see the venom that the White House has generated for themselves with this immigration crap? Now they can do nothing right. And rightly so, I guess. People are now so angry they don't want to see the president or the horse he rode in on under any circumstances.
"I think the Bush White House has lost all sense of direction."
I agree.
There once was a time this would have been swept under the rug.
Fact is, two lesbians are going to raise a child that will have instilled in him that homosexuality is a normal and accepted lifestyle....and on and on and on and on.
Moral decay folks! plain and simple...and from the top.
So basically this guy had his jollies from about 20 to 31 years old and then suddenly said "Well the fun is over. Time for serious life." I find that is possible, but then how can he complain about someone who is currently homosexual when that person may find out it is not the life for them at their own time. I bet you a car that the Cheney's daughter did not have 100 partners in 11 years. I am not trying to condone the Cheney's daughter just trying to show people that this guy led the life he now hates and expects everyone not to do the same. I know I am not explaining this right, but I wish the guy would bash somebody besides a Republican. I think we get enough of that from our advisaries. This guy is supposedly on our side.
You're correct but this isn't an example of it.

By EMILY MILBURNNarconon graduate
Did you know that there are more than 23 million Americans considered to have substance abuse problems right now? Did you know that there are more than 1 million people in this country receiving substance abuse treatment right now? Did you know the United States has the highest jail/prison population in the world and that roughly 80 percent of that population is incarcerated either directly or indirectly for issues involving substance abuse?
My name is Emily Milburn, I am 19, and I used to be a statistic. I was 13 years old when I first started using drugs. My substance abuse problems finally landed me in jail.
My family was devastated. They did not understand why I was making such poor choices. They did not know what to do or where to turn. They were confused, they were disappointed, but more than anything they just wanted to get me some help.
Fortunately for my family and ultimately for me, there are avenues readily available for people to get help in our great country. Newspapers, television stations, radio broadcasts, the internet, all of these outlets made it possible for my family to do their research and find the right program for me, and it worked.
I graduated from the Narconon program and have been doing great since. My family chose this specific program because of its unique and non-traditional approach that specialized in my type of addiction and because it has a success rate of more than 70 percent.
I want your readers to know that there is always hope and there is always something that can be done about addiction issues. If you are tired of watching someone you love lose everything in life that matters then do something about it now.
Narconon provides free addiction counseling, local referrals, and residential treatment. Together we can make the world a better place.
