Home > Paying for College > Financial Aid You Must Repay (Student Loans) >
Federal Perkins Loan
The Federal Perkins Loan Program provides long-term, low interest (five percent) loans to undergraduate and graduate students demonstrate financial need and enroll in participating schools.
Who Is Eligible?
Undergraduate and graduate students who are enrolled at least half time at participating schools are eligible for this program. Some schools may make loans available to part-time students and, in some cases, to students attending less than half time. For undergraduate students, priority is given to Federal Pell Grant recipients.
You also must meet certain conditions to receive federal aid. You must be a U.S. citizen or eligible non-citizen.
How Much Money Can You Get?
The loan amount depends on the availability of funds at your school, your financial need and the amount of other aid you receive.
- Undergraduate students may borrow up to $5,500 per year and $27,500 in total.
- Graduate and professional students may borrow up to $8,000 per year and $60,000 in total.
- Students studying abroad may be eligible to borrow larger amounts.
What's the Application Process?
You apply to the financial aid office at the school you attend. Not all schools participate in the Perkins Loan Program. Each school has its own application deadline, and serves as the loan's lender. The Perkins Loans do not have an origination fee.
What's the Repayment Process?
You begin repaying the loan nine months after you graduate or leave school. If you return to school, you have six months before you start repaying on previous loans. You may be allowed up to 10 years to repay your loan.
The amount of the monthly payment depends on the size of the debt and the length of the repayment period.
Part or all of the loan can be deferred or canceled under certain conditions, such as:
- If you teach children with disabilities.
- If you teach full-time in a designated elementary or secondary school that serves low income students.
You must seek approval for these provisions from your school.

well where do I start with my praise for everyone at VRS REPAIR SERVICES who go that extra mile to put their customers first, after being totally ripped off quote wise by the big high street exhaust companies one of which refused my car because the manifold bolts were seized,VRS came to my help within minutes of posting on the site, cost was quarter than the high street exhaust places and an extremely fast turnaround. before paying any expensive high street fitting centre costs give VRS a call you will not be dissappointed, am so pleased to find these guys. VRS = VALUE RELIABLE SERVICE. Thank you VRS your a credit to the auto trade
Oil change fine. Follow-up jobs to hand brake and calipers were a joke. Returned twice to get hand brake sorted and ended up having to go somewhere else. And calipers were put on rear wheels shoddily. Had to return as wheels were hot. Pins were discovered as being disintegrated on all four calipers by another garage - how they didn't notice that I have no idea. The oil change was fine though.
Very efficient
Great service from this Garage. Very personable staff great information and explanation every step of the way. As a single woman did not feel unsure of honest quote which happens frequently and in fact felt very secure throughout the repair. Will certainly use again and would definitely recommend them. Thank you VRS.
Great service from start to finish. Quick quote and booking. Really nice and friendly place and they kept me fully informed throughout the time my car was with them. Very pleased with the sparkling condition my car was returned to me in, I will use them again and highly recommend.
Very friendly, great service. Fantastic price
Good service, great communication from Joe and set fair expectations. Explained work needing done and provided photos. Would have been nice to also have received proper itemized bill and receipts.
Decent place. Paid £155 for an MOT and a full service on my Audi A3. Only thing that let it down is that they never reset the 'Service due' reminder in my car's computer so I still get a notification every time I start and turnoff the car.
Used the collection service which was a massive help. Informed me of work required before carrying it out and the also done extra work i requested
Quicky and easy, would definitely recommend!
Top service i would recommend to anyone
Knew what be was doing, fixed my problem in minutes.
Will recommend use normal autocentre!
Dropped car off on the morning was explained what work would be done .They later rang to say it was ready before the time .Had no problems with this Garage would probably use them again
Very efficient booking process and work carried promptly whilst I waited. Very pleased with the work carried out and with the price I paid.

Thurs. morning, Oct. 4 -- more than 3 weeks after the U.S. consulate in Benghazi was attacked and 4 Americans were killed, including the U.S. Ambassador -- a team of FBI investigators arrived at the consulate to search through the wreckage. The grounds and the building had been unguarded since 9/11. Anyone and everyone had unlimited access.
The FBI team was there several hours then climbed back into their SUV's and left. They interviewed no one.
As of Oct. 5, according to Libyan officials, the FBI had not questioned anyone, including witnesses, and there was no indication that they would be returning.
On October 4 while the FBI made its trek and brief visit to the ruins of the consulate, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton appointed a 5-member review board to investigate if the security at the consulate was adequate and whether proper procedures were followed before, during, and immediately after the attack.
After making her appointments to the review board, Secretary Clinton stressed that it will take time for the board to complete their inquiry.
Obviously. There will be no report before the November election.

Don't get me wrong. I absolutely love the limited version. This and the siman stuntrooper helmet are the pride of my collection. It was a poor attempt at sarcasm. I really savored there unboxing. Took my own sweet time putting the stand and helmet together. I wish i would've gotten in on that $200 off deal that redfordfilms offered. I preordered with them last year for the full price. When i get some time I'll try to get some pics posted.
I got the Luke X-Wing helmet earlier this year and I really like this as well. It's pretty well done and i don't mind that its made out of fiberglass either. The weathering could be done a little better, but that's my only complaint.

We all know from the movies and books that when the Empire came to power, technology as a whole made a slight u-turn. From Ep. I & II, technology looks cutting edge but in the later trilogy, it takes a backseat to security and control.
My point is this; it's funny how advancement in technology took a turn for the worse in such a short period of time, 10-15 years w/ the Jedi Purge and the advent of the Empire.
On the otherside, there is no visible upswing 30 years after Jedi. They're still using X-Wings and familiar capital ships, weapons haven't changed much & the galaxy continues to exhibit a gritty look.
Now with the NJO and the loss of Coruscant, the future of technology looks bleak. I find it interesting the the Empire was able to leave such a lasting impression even after its demise.
That's just my observation.

Applied behavior track at Binghamton University garners national accreditation
The specialized track in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) in the Department of Psychology at Binghamton University has become the first undergraduate program in the United States to be accredited by the Behavior Analyst Certification Board, Inc. (BACB).
The ABA track, which is designed to prepare students for careers in children's services or human services, is geared toward clinical psychology, speech, research, and public policy, with particular concentrations in developmental disabilities, learning disabilities, and measurement and evaluation. Proving to be a popular program at the University, enrollment in the ABA track has increased steadily since its launch in 2000.
According to Ray Romanczyk, director of the Institute for Child Development and the track program director, the need for accreditation comes in response to a surging interest and demand for individuals with formal education in ABA. "The demand for individuals formally trained in ABA has increased exponentially in the last decade," said Romancyzk. "Currently there is a severe shortfall across the nation and students with formal training are being actively sought by graduate programs as well as by public and private educational and service organizations. With support from the faculty in the Department of Psychology, we were able to create a program that is very strong in both a research/empirical science philosophy as well as a rigorous human services/applied training program."
The BACB is a nonprofit corporation formed as a result of credentialing needs identified by behavior analysts, agencies within several state governments, and consumers of behavior analysis services in many countries. Obtaining accreditation from the international ABA certification body was the final step in the program's development but daunting because to date, accredited programs have been exclusively at the graduate and doctoral level.
BACB officially began its accreditation review activities at the University in 2002, after attending University student research presentations and program description presentations at various conferences. BACB then conducted interviews and requested extensive documentation of the ABA program curriculum.
The results were independently reviewed by members of the certification board and received unanimous endorsement. The program at Binghamton University was described as "the prototype for future submissions by undergraduate programs from other universities."
The accreditation also allows Binghamton University students the opportunity to participate in a nationally recognized behavior analyst certification program.
Jennifer Gillis, a graduate of the ABA program, is one of the first Binghamton University students to complete the certification process. The process entailed the completion of ABA courses offered at the University, a year of supervised application of applied behavior analysis and successfully passing the certification exam.
"The exam was very challenging," said Gillis. "However, I was well prepared. My course of study at Binghamton University combined with my supervised research and practical experience at the Institute for Child Development provided me with a strong background in both the academic and practical applications of ABA."
Gillis added that many professional disciplines require licensure in order to provide specific services. Up to now, the field of behavior analysis did not have any form of licensure and both clients and professional behavior analysts have welcomed the certification process.
"Consumers are constantly seeking assurances that the services provided are of a certain quality," said Gillis. "In addition, consumers are becoming more aware of the certification and are beginning to seek out professionals with these credentials. This will not only create greater professional opportunities for certified behavior analysts but will serve to maintain the quality and integrity of the discipline. For me, certification is an essential aspect of being a behavior analyst."

Use frozen dinner rolls to fashion an impressive bread loaf loaded with great herb flavor.
If you're serving this bread warm, use a fork to pull the rolls apart. If you're serving it cool, cut it into slices with a serrated knife.
You can cut the rising time of the bread to about 1 hour if you follow the frozen dough package directions for the "speed method."
Cut down on chopping time by using already-chopped garlic from a jar. You'll find it in the produce section near the fresh garlic.

Saturday morning started out like many other Saturdays in our sleepy little town.. wake up, shave, shower, put on Scout uniform…
But this last Saturday was special, it was our annual Scouting for Food Saturday, a day that the Scouts not only provide a service to the community, but a day that they really see the impact of their good turn.
Our Troop has assisted the St. Vincent DePaul food Pantry for the past 5 years now. We collect our food, just like every other Scouting unit, but rather than just drop it off at the collection point, we are there to collect the food as units drop it off. We help weigh it, sort it, box it, and put it away. The whole process is witnessed as the scouts take action to help feed the most in need of our community.
Each year we take a minute to reflect on just how good we have it. You see, as we are collecting the food and getting it all into the St. Vincent DePaul food pipe line, there are folks at the back door where the food is distributed. They are not Scouts or volunteers, they are there to receive the gifts of the community. They are men and women, families with their children, they come with bags and carts and cars that barely run, they are humble and embarrassed, and grateful. Our Scouts greet them with smiles and a comforting hand and watch as they disappear into the cold morning.
There is an amazing transformation, for that moment in time our young men get it. They understand that they are lucky to have parents, scout leaders, teachers, pastors, family that care for them and make sure that they have everything for a blessed life. They are the lucky ones that have never spent a night in a cold house with an empty belly. They are the lucky ones that have never spent a night in darkness wondering if tomorrow will be better.
Our Scouts come from every social, economic, and religious background our community has to offer, they are not rich, they are not poor, they are not abused, they are not unhappy. This weekend they realized that they are the lucky ones.
I wish we never had to do another Scouting for Food drive or hand out food, clothing, and basic needs to those less fortunate, but that is not the world we live in. Thank God for the Boy Scouts and the great work they do.
It was Will Rogers that once said "The only problem with the Boy Scouts…there's not enough of them!"
Thank you Troop 664.. and Packs, Troops, and Crews everywhere that are the lucky ones and share it through your Good Turns every day.. especially when it comes to Scouting for Food!
Have a Great Scouting Day!
The Lucky ones
Saturday morning started out like many other Saturdays in our sleepy little town.. wake up, shave, shower, put on Scout uniform…

text: I'm referring to their weird philosophy that they have to push "core characters." It's a bit more noticeable with the Joes, where they have crap-tons of Arctic Destros everywhere, because adults are burnt the heck out with Destro and Duke. But insisting on so heavily pushing the WFC Prime and Bumblebee, as well as that weird b*****d movie/Classics Bumblebee repaint, there'd be more space for stuff that moves better. They should probably also consider that a character like Darkmount, who was a comics-only character with two whole issues in this country, or one like Thunderwing, who was a pice of carp toy who rose to prominence very late in the comic book series, probably won't sell as much as, say, Jazz.

Google CEO: We Have no Real "Competitors", Apple's Fixation is Self-Destructive
Jason Mick
December 11, 2012 4:45 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Larry Page says that when you're obsessed with the present you're not looking ahead to the future
"We're still 1 percent to where we should be. I feel a deep sense of responsibility to try to move things along. Not enough people are focused on big change. Part of what I'm trying to do is take Google as a case study and really scale our ambition such that we are able to cause more positive change in the world and more technological change."
"I have a deep feeling that we are not even close to where we should be."
I. Google -- Doing Its Own Thing
Those sound like the words of a CEO of a company struggling technologically. But surprisingly the come from Larry Page, the current CEO of Google Inc. (
) -- the maker of the world's most used search engine, most used online advertising service, and most used smartphone operating system platform.
In a
new interview
Mr. Page emphasizes Google's philosophy on how it differs from competitors. He says that most rivals who have issues with Google are more worried about themselves than their end users, where as at Google it's all about providing the best experience for the end user, which is built on the premise of openness. By providing Google services on as many platforms as possible (even those of arch-nemesis Apple, Inc. (AAPL)), Mr. Page says customers will have access to the best options on the market.
As for Apple
locking out Google Maps and other apps from iOS 6
, he simply comments, "We try pretty hard to make our products be available as widely as we can. That's our philosophy. I think sometimes we're allowed to do that. Sometimes we're not."

The CEO accuses Apple (and its late CEO Steven P. Jobs) as
being overly fixated
on Google. Reiterating his comments from
a previous interview
, he says that Apple's legal campaign against Google is partly to rally the company against its competitor.
But he says that if you're fixated on your competitor, you're not looking forward at your own future. He remarks, "I don't like to rally my company in that way because I think that if you're looking at somebody else, you're looking at what they do now, and that's not how again you stay two or three steps ahead."
To him, Google has no real "competitors". He comments, "I feel my job is mostly getting people not to think about our competition. In general I think there's a tendency for people to think about the things that exist."
II. Risky Efforts are Important to Software Giant
The interviewer asks about Google's so-called "70-20-10 model" in which 70 percent of the company's spending is devoted to search/advertising, 20 percent is devoted to apps (like
Google Docs
), and 10 percent is devoted to experimental efforts (like
self-driving cars
Project Glass
He says that Google still mostly follows that model, but that some projects fall on the border of categories. He comments, "So where would you put Android? It's probably in the 70 in terms of impact -- the monetization is at an early stage."
As for Google Plus
, he says the social network is faring "pretty well" and is "improving". He suggests that with Plus and other services users may not have received quite what they initially expected, but that Google's philosophy is that users must get accustomed to services before making judgements.
Page is optimistic about Google Plus. [Image Source: Google]
As for how long he will remain CEO at Google (Eric Schmidt was
chief for 10 years
), he says, "I don't know. It seems impossible to predict."
"I mean, if you wanna break down someone's door, why don't you start with AT&T, for God sakes? They make your amazing phone unusable as a phone!" -- Jon Stewart on Apple and the iPhone

I just got the DVD of Spaceballs and watched that bad boy last night. I'd forgotten how incredibly funny this flick is! I have to highly recommend the DVD as well--not a lot of extra stuff, but the bits on the menu are worth the price.
A couple of in jokes I never noticed as a kid:
the "Schwartz theme" is almost exactly like Leia's theme from ANH
the bear getting into the escape pod sounds like Chewbacca
after the "They shot my hair!" bit, the Winnebago makes a brief R2-D2 beep when it starts up
Lone Starr is dressed like Indiana Jones in his first scene, and claims to be from the "Ford Galaxy"
I think it would be awesome if Brooks came back from limbo and, given the incredible amount of new material since 1986 (the prequels, ST:TNG, Stargate, Baylon 5, X-Files, Matrix, RoboCop, Terminator 2, etc, etc, etc), actually made Spaceballs 2: The Search for More Money. It could even star the annoying brat from Jerry Maguire as a young Darth Helmet. Or more likely not. Brooks was apparently not content with such masterpieces as Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, The Producers, and Spaceballs; I bet he's much happier with the bland Dracula: Dead and Loving It as his legacy.

Confusion grows around missing Tibetan monk filmmaker
Not unusually, an already confusing situation in Tibet just got worse. Twenty-seven Tibetans have self-immolated in protest against Chinese this month alone, according to Human Rights Watch. That's almost one a day. Against this chaotic backdrop, Chinese authorities have issued an arrest order for a missing monk who helped film a 2008 documentary about life in Tibet, according to his film company, Filming for Tibet.
CPJ supporters will know that we just honored self-taught Tibetan filmmaker Dhondup Wangchen with an International Press Freedom Award, recognizing his courage documenting life under Chinese rule with full knowledge that he would face severe repercussions (he is serving a six-year jail term--you can join our petition for his release here). So we've been following with concern the latest reports that his assistant on that project, the monk Jigme Gyatso, has been missing, reportedly detained, since September.

Hopefully, next Saturday will be spent congregating with some fellow SSGers.
And so it was; after laundry, recycling, some grading, some college football watching, of course.
With JediTricks, El Chuxter, and Maradona, enjoyed a splendid meal, with do-it-yourself frozen yogurt after. Then, on to seek such collectibles as discount novelty shirts, rocks in a jar, sweat-absorbing thumb-protecting jackets, non-college-dorm-sized bed sheets, electronic hammers, ... and SW or GI Joe figures. Discussed the state of collectibles, movies & shows, fiction in comic and novel forms. Once back home: asleep fairly easily.
Sweet! :)
Funny, your Saturday sounds a lot like my Saturday, except my Saturday also involved leaving about a foot of tire rubber on a very steep street while trying to parallel park. :p
Yeah, a good time indeed, and we should try to get in another one soon! Hopefully Maradona's car situation will be all fixied uppy by then (I'm still leaning towards water pump, which could be as low as $150-$200).
Typical standard stuff: recycling, meal preparing and eating, grading, lesson planning, college foosball watching, verb listing.
I spent half a day at work Saturday finishing reports and booking evidence because of my 16 hour day on Friday dealing with this cluster:
Celebrated a friend's birthday at dinner, then vegged the rest of the evening.
I was on my way to see my grandpa after filming a video shoot for the Board of Tourism in Temecula when I learned my grandpa died.
We're having the funeral this week. Bummed.
Sorry to hear that, Tycho. :(

Honduras: Montaña Verde
Montaña Verde: Indigenous Rights, Land, Repression
Over the past 15 years, well over 50 indigenous activists have been assassinated in Honduras. Although the country signed the ILO's Covenant 169, indigenous rights only really exist on paper. Those who struggle for their rights to territory, natural resource management, identity and autonomy are often met with discrimination, repression or bullets.
One example of this repression is the systematic targeting of members of the Indigenous Communal Council of Montaña Verde, affiliated with the Civic Council for Popular and Indigenous Organizations of Honduras COPINH. Council members and other community authorities have been charged with murder, assault and battery, theft, property damage, 'grand cattle theft,' attempt against the State and threats, as a result of their persistent struggle to obtain communal land titles to community land.
Although all previous cases had been won due to lack of evidence, this complete lack of evidence is no longer hindering the corrupt judicial system from emitting guilty verdicts. Marcelino and Leonardo Miranda, in jail since their arrest and torture in early 2003, have been sentenced to 29 years each on the fabricated charges of murder and assault, amidst the appalling and almost surreal abusive actions and irregularities plaguing the judicial system.
The Miranda brothers are both respected community leaders and are involved in the community church as 'Delegates of the Word of God.' Marcelino is the Coordinator of Legal Issues of the Indigenous Communal Council and has previously been elected to the General Coordination of COPINH as Coordinator of Land and the Environment. They continue to support the struggle of their community and of COPINH for land and justice, to the extent that this is possible, given their current situation. Community members work collectively to plant and harvest the brothers' land to support their families, whom Marcelino and Leonardo have been unable to support for over a year.
Background: Repression and Resistance in Montaña Verde
Poised in the green mountains in a remote region of western Honduras, the neighbouring communities of Planes and Vertientes, collectively Montana Verde, have been the home for generations of campesino families, descendants of the indigenous Lenca. Without a recognized legal title to the land, they have been subject to repeated intimidation and encroachments onto their land, which overlaps with the Montana Verde wildlife refuge decreed in 1987: seasonal cattle grazing guarded by armed ranchers, a sawmill, armed incursions, etc.
Behind these tactics are powerful landowning families based out of Gracias, the centre of the municipality covering Montana Verde, in particular the Calix Urtecho family. Between the army captain, the police chief and the congressman, this family has certainly had the opportunity and support to attempt to usurp the land and valuable natural resources of Montana Verde.
The communities' affiliation with COPINH and their long struggle for a communal land title only led to intensified repression. Over the last few years this repression has manifested itself as a series of fabricated charges and legal processes against various Communal Indigenous Council representatives and other community leaders. Indigenous council leaders from Vertientes, Felipe Bejerano and Luis Benitez, were jailed -- 27 and 14 months, respectively -- for the duration of their trials on the trumped charges of theft and property damage. When the community of Vertientes finally succeeded in obtaining a communal land title to the community's land, police and justice system authorities began targeting community leaders from Planes, the community still fighting for its land title.
Marcelino and Leonardo Miranda were arrested on January 8, 2003, in a military-style midnight attack on their community and were tortured -- severely beaten, burned with cigarettes, forced to carry heavy loads hung by the neck, and partially asphyxiated by repeated submersion underwater -- by many of 28 police and special forces agents involved. They have faced charges of assault, murder, land usurpation, grand cattle theft and attempt against the State. They have been held in prison, where they were tortured once again by two special 'Cobra' agents involved in the January operative. As the trials unfolded, they have been cleared of all charges except for assault and murder.
The Sentence: Systematic Injustice Continues
Although Honduran law states that the sentence must be pronounced within 10 days of the acceptance of the conclusions into the case file, this timeframe is seldom respected. In this case, Judge Atiliano Vasquez waited until December 16, 2003 -- well over a month past the legally acceptable date -- to sentence the Miranda brothers to 25 years for murder. He then ignored his legal obligation to inform the defense lawyer Marcelino Martinez of the decision, only going so far as to post the sentence on the court notice board in the Gracias courthouse on December 17, the last working day for the justice system in Honduras until their return from the holidays on January 5th.
This latest event is typical of the actions of most of the judges and public prosecutors dealing with the wide array of false charges against Montana Verde indigenous leaders, in this case and all the preceding ones. Indeed, it has become very evident that most of these 'justice' workers are working in favour of the powerful landowners and the police. This pattern has become even more obvious throughout the course of the murder trial.
The judge apparently based his decision on the summary period testimony of two witnesses, which was disproved during the course of the proceedings. One of the two witnesses, Manuel de Jesus Benitez, contradicted his own testimony during the reconstruction of events, which was conducted at the site he indicated, 700m from the actual crime site. The prosecution did not propose the inclusion of any concrete or scientific proof linking the Miranda brothers to the dead body, because no such evidence exists. In fact, the initial denouncement of the death, made by a recognized community leader, lamented the crime but made no mention of Marcelino and Leonardo Miranda or any other suspects.
The ever-changing cast of judges and public prosecutors involved in the case has had their share of implication in the ongoing injustice. Public prosecutor Virgilio Carias witnessed the torture of Marcelino Miranda and has been a key witness for the police in other trials, as has Ivan Najera, an investigative agent who participated in the torture of Leonardo during and after his arrest. The latest public prosecutor put on the case at his request, Julio Cerrato, phoned the public prosecutor's office during the reconstruction of events on September 18th with the false information that Judge Vasquez and police officers had "disappeared". Upon confirmation by a police officer, a police helicopter was sent to Montana Verde and the news was quickly propagated on local and national radio.
The reconstruction of events in September was actually the second time the event was scheduled. A date and time had been programmed earlier; however, the judge and public prosecutor departed from Gracias and passed the arranged meeting point with the defense prior to the arranged time, continuing on to San Francisco de Opalaca, where the hike into the community would have begun. Instead, they wrote a legal act claiming to have arrived in the community of Vertientes, denounced the defense's absence and turned around. A similar episode occurred with the exhumation of the body of the deceased community member, when the forensic medical personnel failed to bring any tools to carry out the procedure, returning another day without notifying the defense.
The conviction, then, only follows an established pattern of repression and abuse. It is still appalling, however, considering the absolute lack of evidence against the accused, aside from the outsiders' testimonies that have been repeatedly disproved. Furthermore, the witnesses' testimony from the summary period, although the basis of the sentence, was never formally submitted as evidence. The witnesses were never recalled to give their testimony during the presentation of evidence, thus depriving the defense of its right to cross-examine.
Since the 25-year sentence, the Miranda brothers have been sentenced to 4 further years on assault and battery charges. Both decisions are at different stages of appeal process, as is the shelving of a case of torture and abuse of authority against the 28 police officers involved in the Miranda brothers' arrest and torture January 8, 2003. Judicial proceedings continue to be riddled with irregularities and abuses, while COPINH and the communities of Montaña Verde continue to struggle for land and justice.

there's no good reason to fatten up a retriever.
It's kinda funny to watch you lefty's argue AGAINST something you know NOTHING about and argue FOR something you know even LESS about!!!
Stan b & Elvis
They will find out the hard way.
I'm a little surprised that you would be in favor of large deductible plans.
On another note, large deductibles would be pretty rough on retired folks that have modest fixed incomes. In most cases, that's the stage in life when good health insurance is usually very important.
My personal belief is that we will not see real and significant health care reform and some control over the costs associated with health care until the Senate, House, SCOTUS and POTUS no longer get the ABSOLUTE BEST care for life. In other words, when Hell freezes over.........-Paul

Toyota Off-Road - TTORA TakeOverPosted in Events on December 1, 2007 Comment (0)
There are those who dislike taking long road trips. There are also those who find them to be a relaxing and freeing experience of solitude. I am the latter sort. I spent just over 26 hours traveling from Orange County, California, to Farmington, New Mexico, to attend the 2007 TTORA (Toyota Territory Off-Roaders Association) TakeOver event. The nearly 800-mile-long drive doesn't take 26 hours, but I took my time, stopping to see a friend in Phoenix and stretch my legs and eat something other than gas station snack foods. Much of the drive was spent along Interstate 40, which parallels part of historic Route 66. The scenery shifts from the bustling highways of Orange County to the desert and the wide-open spaces of northern Arizona.
Farmington is located at 36 45.6N, 108 11.23W, which is in San Juan County. When the area opened for settlement in 1876, immigrants arrived from Colorado, Utah, and Texas to find work as miners, farmers, or cattle raisers. Subsequently it became occupied by the Navajo, Ute, and Apache peoples, whose descendants still live there. Spend time walking about the town of Farmington, and you'll quickly see the heavy influence of Native American culture throughout.
Aside from this being a work assignment, I was looking forward to spending time with my good friends in the TTORA. The TTORA is the largest Toyota-based club in the world, with chapters in nearly every state in the U.S. Each year, the club holds its TakeOver event, changing the location year to year. The trails of Farmington provided outstanding terrain for this year's event; some would even call this place a sort of mini-Moab because of the slickrock-type formations and amazing vistas. The TTORA has such an impact on Toyota's off-road market that typically there is a Toyota and TRD representative at TakeOver each year. Besides TakeOver, members of the TTORA enjoy access to the club's many other adventure outings (you should see the giveaways at these events!) and to its popular online forum.
I had another great time with the TTORA gang and will definitely be sitting shotgun on the trails with them again soon. In the rare moments when I wasn't enjoying the trail action, conversation, and excellent barbecued food, I managed to snap a few photos for you. Enjoy.

The main European stock markets were down in the week from May 28 to June 1 (-3.2% Milan, London -1.7%, -4.6% Frankfurt, Paris -3.2%). Stock prices were affected by the tensions on the Spanish banking sector (possible bankruptcy of Bankia), the political instability in Greece (exit polls on the majority party) and the negative U.S. and European macroeconomic data (labor, consumption).
Sales hit all sectors indiscriminately with DJStoxx 600 down by 3.1%.
Auto&Parts sector performance (-4.7% Stoxx Auto) was penalized by both profit taking after year-to-date rally (highest sectorial performance: +7.6% YTD) and the negative May car registrations in the main European markets.
Pirelli ended the week at € 7,705 down by 4% with an average daily traded volume of about 4.7 million pieces.

UPDATE: Dr. Gardere wrote a lengthy apology and clarification on CNN's American Morning amFIX blog.
Friday GLAAD reached out to Dr. Jeff Gardere, a clinical psychologist, after he made some alarming comments during a discussion on CNN's American Morning. He was talking with CNN host Kiran Chetry and a mom from Missouri. The mom, Sarah, who only gave her first name during the interview, created a sensation online in recent days, with her blog post that defended her son after he was ridiculed at his school for dressing as the character Daphne from Scooby-Doo for Halloween. Her blog received over a million hits and nearly 20 thousand comments.
During the course of his discussion Dr.Gardere did praise Sarah for supporting her son but he also criticized her for what he called "outing" him. He also said it's the "worst nightmare" of both heterosexual and gay couples "to have to fathom that their child might be gay."
After listening to our concerns and receiving several scathing critiques from the LGBT blogosphere-- late Friday afternoon Gardere issued this apology to GLAAD:On CNN this morning I participated in a discussion with a mother from Kansas City who was criticized for allowing her five year old son to dress as a female character from Scooby-Doo. I misspoke when I articulated that gay and straight parents would consider it their "worst nightmare" to have a gay child. What I meant to say is that many gay and straight parents I've worked with have voiced concern when they believed they had a gay child because they worried that their children might face hostility and bullying from people who are anti-gay. My comments about the mother "outing" her child were not related to his sexual orientation. I was questioning why she put her son's photo out on her blog. I believe this mother has been very courageous in supporting her child. Her acceptance and unconditional love set an example for other parents in how to raise happy and healthy children. I sincerely apologize for the hurt and confusion that some of my comments have caused in the LGBT community. Moving forward I am seeking GLAAD's counsel to ensure that I address LGBT issues with more due care in future interviews. We thank Dr. Gardere for clarifying his remarks and issuing a heartfelt apology. We look forward to working with him prior to future media appearances.

WSSU and WFU receive $2.3 Million for New Postdoctoral Training Program
The Wake Forest University Graduate School of Arts and Sciences and the Wake Forest School of Medicine (WFSM) have announced that a partnership with Winston-Salem State University (WSSU) has been awarded a $2.3 million grant from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences to develop highly skilled biomedical scientists to teach the next generation of clinical researchers and allied health professionals.
"The Postdoctoral Research, Instruction and Mentoring Experience (PRIME) program also strives to promote research competencies of under-represented minority undergraduate and graduate scholars in the health professions," said Dr. Azeez Aileru, the director of WSSU's Biomedical Research Infrastructure Center and an advisory board member for the program. "WSSU has a longstanding commitment to biomedical and allied health training programs and we will co-train the PRIME scholars with WFSM by integrating traditional mentored postdoctoral research and regular in-depth professional development programming at WFSM with a broad variety of teaching assignments in pre-professional, allied health and biomedical and behavioral science courses at WSSU."
PRIME will aid in recruitment, retention and development of more underrepresented minority clinical scientists by immersing PRIME scholars, their WFU mentors and undergraduates in the MARC U*STAR and MBRS RISE programs at WSSU to create a collaborative learning environment. Additionally, PRIME will strengthen existing collaborations in research and teaching between WFSM and WSSU.
"I believe this project to train postdoctoral scholars in both teaching and research represents an excellent collaboration between our two academic institutions." said Dr. Allyn Howlett, the Principal Investigator for the program and a professor at WFSM.

I don't get it. I just put the icon in a folder with the rest of the useless (to me) apps like Stocks using Folder Enhancer. It's out of sight unless I decide to open that folder of useless apps (which is in another folder of things I do use). I keep my books in the Books app because, well, they are books.
IMO this is a redundant app. I didn't think he'd charge for this app so I'm surprised to see that it's offered for 99¢. I'm sure it may help some, but not too many. I just don't see anyone paying for this app.
This is a great tweak. I've always only ever hidden Newsstand but I love this as a new way to get at your books quickly and easily. Now, cos I never use Newsstand for anything from it's store, I wanna rename it to iBooks and just hide the old app unless I need it. The catch... "IconRenamer" doesn't let me. It just opens it like a folder. Anyone have any tricks to rename the newsstand?
NewStand in a folder is explicitly prohibited by FolderEnhancer since like v1.5.4. Check the known issues "Newsstand can not be opened when inside a folder. This was done on purpose, for now, as the developer does not yet know enough about the inner-workings of Newsstand."
Still a much better use for Newsstand
I watched the video and it looks sort of useless. So it puts links to your books in newsstand but it still opens ibooks when you click on it.
Well its a use for newsstand as its always empty but still not worth paying for.
I think the NONEWSISGOODNEWS app is more useful and isn't that free?
Infinidock- the screen shown is the third row. The first two rows are apps I use (phone, bite, settings, camera, photos, etc), the third obviously is folders and folders within folders. CleanStatus and Candlejack icons are shown- I also use a Tap to Unlock with invisible tap. And, actually, my wife and kids are the subject of the wallpapers I use- I just used the wallpaper shown for posting purposes.
mr 17 you can put it in a folder? both my i4 and i4s can't put it in a folder >.< i figured it was a bug
Site is still not working well with my Mac. I'm reading the comments on my iPad.
Let's see: no, I'm not related to the Big Lebowski- and no, I'm not the laziest man in Southern California, which would mean the laziest man in the world.
Folder enhance ($ on Cydia) allows me (and you, Verizoniphone4_help) to put the icon in a folder. The app won't open when there, but if you don't use the app, what do you care?
I don't get how having the books in Newsstand and then clicking on them and then iBooks opens is any better than opening iBooks and clicking on them there.
I don't get (well, I do- $) why Apple made this particular icon so difficult to deal with.
You take two icons and place them into a folder.
Then very rapidly drag the newstand into the folder.
Now take the first two icons out of the folder and move the folder wherever you want.
You could have a folder of icons that you never use and place it there.
The trick is to do the move of newstand quickly after you have moved the other 2 icons.
P.S. We should be able to remove and/or replace any apps that we want!
It's my iphone, sour apple!

Shana Corey
I was born in Savannah, Georgia, and grew up mostly in Charlotte, North Carolina. After college I moved to New York and became a children's book editor. I've always loved to read and as an editor, I'm surrounded by wonderful books all day so it's hard not to be inspired.
When I was little, my favorite books were about the olden-days: Little House on the Prairie, Maud Hart Lovelace's Betsy-Tacy books, The Little Princess, and All-of-a-Kind Family. I used to check these books out over and over again from the library-I already had them memorized but I just liked knowing they were in the house. (I also liked to trace the illustrations!)
These books directly inspired my first attempts at storytelling. No matter how many times I checked them out of the library, I was never ready to leave the characters behind, and so I would spend hours making up stories in my head that continued their adventures--and sometimes I even let myself be a part of them! I also liked to dress up in "olden day" clothes and play Little House on the Prairie with my sister. Our costumes consisted of my mom's long skirts and one of her aprons (preferably not the one that said "World's greatest chef!") and wearing our hair in braids.
When I grew up, I went to Smith College in Massachusetts. For me, one of the best things about college was that I suddenly learned that those books I loved as a kid were a window into a very real history, the history of women and girls. Believe it or not, I could actually take entire courses (and get credit for learning!) about olden-girls! Consequently, I took a lot of women's history courses at Smith, all of which broadened my horizons enormously.
Because of my interest in women's history, most of the stories I write are rooted in the past, but not always. My most recent picture book, Ballerina Bear is about a clumsy bear named Bernice who dreams of being a ballerina. Her ballet-classmates think she can't do it, but despite all her tumbling and stumbling, Bernice really believes with all her heart that she can. As a fellow stumbler, I identify with Bernice a lot, and I'm really excited to see this book come out. Pam Paparone did a wonderful, fun job with the illustrations and Bernice's personality really shines through.
I'm also just finishing up work on Milly and the Macy's Parade, which is a picture book inspired by the history of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade that will be out this fall. I started writing and researching the story several years ago after reading in a blurb that said the parade was started in 1924 by immigrant employees who worked at Macy's and who were homesick for the outdoor festivals and other holiday traditions of their homeland. My grandmothers were both children in1924, and were also the daughters of immigrants so that snippet really struck a chord with me. I think everyone can relate to being homesick, and I love the idea that this wonderful American tradition had such a uniquely American melting-pot beginning. Milly is based on the true story of the parade's history, with the addition of a fictional little girl named Milly, the daughter of one of Macy's employees, who steers the plot.
A continuing project of mine is the First Grader from Mars series, illustrated by Mark Teague. These are early readers, and despite their science fiction title, are actually stories about feelings and anxiety. The characters just happen to live on Mars!
When I'm not writing, I enjoy hanging out in my Brooklyn neighborhood with my husband, visiting my family in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, reading, fantasizing about one day getting a dog, and just generally being silly.

New at the sport.
Hello everyone,
My name is Dan Emidy and I am fairly new at fly fishing. I live in Blackstone Mass,and my main interest is trout fishing. I grew up on a small pond and fished for Largemouth Bass most of my youth. I also fished at the cape for Rainbow trout quite often, and for brookies at my camp in Maine. I would make flys and fish them off of a stick that I would make from local saplings. I had always wanted to get into fly fishing, and a Bass Pro shop came to town and it got me into actually starting.I wanted to start when i came home from Iraq, but got too buisy with work. I have been fishing for the past 2 months and only had one hook up. I know of a few places that are local and I would like to meet other local guys. That is what made me seek a forum.
Thanks for looking
Hello Dan & welcome to the forum. There is a bunch of stuff you can read that will help you understand some of the finer points of fly fishing both on the web & in print. Or at least get you pointed in the right direction. Have a look in Borders or Barnes & Noble next time you are near one. There are several Books by Lefty Kreh that are good. "Presenting The Fly" comes to mind as good title from Lefty.
The Classic guide to Fly Fishing for Trout, by Charles Jardine is a good book for beginners to read. Just to name a few. I saw both of these books in a couple of different Borders locations recently.
Really the best way is to tag along with an experienced fly fisher and get some pointers. Time on the water and observation of what works & does not is really the best teacher. It takes time to get good at trout fishing.
Asking a specific question here can also help out immensely. Hopefully some others will come along & give you some more ideas. we all have our own ideas about what equipment & flies etc...work best, but there are some basic rules for lack of a better term that all fly fishers need to know. Then it is refine your technique and gain knowledge of the local Bug & food population. after a fashion you will start catching fish on a regular basis
Hello and welcome
Consider joining us at the Spring Clave in May for an introduction to the striped bass on a fly. It's a shame to be in MA and not have tried it in my opinion.
If it doesn't rock your boat the trout will be waiting a few miles away.
I have picked up quite a few books already. I have fly fishing for dummies, the Orvis Fly Fishing Guide, Trout Streams of Southern New England,(fuller) Hatch Guide for New England Streams,(Ames)and the novel Trout Bum, (Gierach) I also have Barr Flies which is also very helpful. I have subscribed to Fly Fisherman Magizine for 2 years. I have a few DVD's by Scientific Anglers, and the Trout Bum movies too. All these Publications are helpful, but implementation is the hard part. Getting the drag free drift, not getting hooked up on the branches and so on.
For my equipment I have 2 rods. I have a Pfluger 8'6" 5 weight, with an orvis Battenkill reel, and I have a White River 5'8" 4 weight with a White River reel.(for the nasty overhanging shrubs) I have a pair of breathable waders, and a bunch of common tools. I am going to upgrade mu 5 weight though. It is a tip flex and my cousin has a mid flex that I can cast much better. I am thinking of the Orvis Hellios.
Hello and welcome! :)
I would highly recommend looking at a mid flex Orvis Superfine over the Helios. It's a much better casting rod. The only attraction I see to the Helios is the light weight, which I don't really see as a big deal. It's not like we're talking about a 2 lb difference here, just an ounce (if that!).

That's My Boy on Father's Day
Father's Day is this weekend. What does your dad want for Father's Day? There was a time when my dad might have wanted my ma, the Chinese Squawking Chicken, not to squawk for an hour, just to give us all a break. But then she got sick. And we've never wanted her to keep squawking so bad.
My dad has been a hero through it all. The nurses kept saying they'd never seen a husband so devoted. Even she has to admit it now. And she can rarely bring herself to say something kind about anyone.
It's time to thank Dad for being Dad. If you've read the blog for any length of time, you'll know that through my early teens my dad raised me on his own in Toronto. Tough work, especially since I was not easy. Here he was saving his ass off to send me to private school and I'm ditching class, panhandling for fun at the subway station.
I guess I should have been Donny Berger's kid? That's Adam Sandler's character in That's My Boy, a mess of a man who fathered a son in his teens called Han Solo played by Andy Samberg who changes his name as soon as possible to the less, um, evocative "Todd". Donny raises Hans/Todd as a single parent until Todd's 18th birthday. Then he ditches him for 12 years and on returns when he's in debt right when Hans Todd is about to marry Leighton Meester.
Sarah reminded me recently that Adam Sandler has had ten - TEN! - $100 million PLUS movies in the last 12 years. It's Father's Day this weekend. The US Open is happening. Golf, Happy Gilmore, and Adam Sandler is back at the movies.
That's My Boy opens tonight. See the trailer below.

New Zealand number one Marina Erakovic has made a strong start at the Family Circle Cup tournament defeating Daniela Hantuchova in the opening round.
Erakovic, ranked 62 in the world, advanced to the second round with a straight sets 7-6(2) 6-4 win over the former world number five.
Erakovic will face Australian and tournament third seed Samantha Stosur in the next round. The pair have clashed just once before, five years ago with Stosur winning in straight sets.
Last year Erakovic reached the third round at Charleston before falling to Serena Wiliams who is the current world No1 and top seed for this year's event.

I feel a great disturbance in the Force.
Man, filming in 2014 for a movie that is supposed to be released in 2015 seems like a really tight schedule for something that will likely be as CG heavy as I'm sure Ep7 will be.
Don't worry. With Abrams at the helm, it's just a matter of dropping in the le--
Wait, what? Lens flare jokes have been prohibited at this site? DAMN!
That's my jacket!
Maybe they will show some restraint and cut back on the CG this time around.
If he "honors" it as much as he did 2009's New Coke Star Trek, we're ruined.
Chux, New Coke Trek with all those lens flares, adding CGI lens flares, bringing flashlights onto the set to point into the camera... this is supposed to be a starship, it's supposed to be a scientific and military endeavor where workstations are meant to be clear for the user to focus on and not distracting, nothing should be shining in everyone's eyes all the time, you wouldn't see that on the bridge of an aircraft carrier or a submarine, he just did it to be a showoff without any thought behind it. Thus he earns all the derision possible for that lens flares thing, and you make all the jokes you want for it.
Anyway, Abrams shouldn't bother moving to London unless he's going to direct all 3 films, especially with post production being done back here in California.
Darth Vader is becoming the Mickey Mouse of Star Wars.
Kylo Ren - came from Space Brooklyn, although he moved to Space Williamsburg before it was trendy.
The use of a lightsaber does not make one a Jedi, it is the ability to not use it.

I made this soup yesterday and it's tasty, even my husband who isn't a fan of soup approved! Sunchokes are one of my new favorite vegetables, they have a wonderful texture and a slightly sweet taste that I really crave. They are great roasted, mashed, eaten raw in salads or made into soup. This soup would be perfect to serve as a starter for a roast chicken dinner, it's light and refreshing in a wintry/comforting sort of way.
{Recipe} Sunchoke Soup
(adapted from 'The NYT's Bread & Soup Cookbook')
8 sunchokes
1 large onion
4 potatoes
2-1/2 Tbsp butter
4 cloves garlic
2 bay leaves
8 cups chicken stock
Sea salt & fresh ground pepper
Garnish: cream, creme fraiche, fresh herbs, croutons, etc
Peel and chop the sunchokes, onion and potatoes. Put them in a dutch oven with the butter, season with sea salt and pepper, and saute until the onions are transparent. Add in the garlic and saute a few more minutes. Add the bay leaves and chicken stock and simmer for 30 minutes. Remove the bay leaves and puree with an immersion blender or blender. Taste for seasoning and serve in warm bowls with garnish of choice and lots of yummy bread to dip in the soup!

OK our last thread got locked so before anything happens I want to get a few things straight:
- Don't bash Aurisonics based the impressions you read.
- Aurisonics IEM's were not specifically designed with audiophiles in mind, musicians (specifically vocalists) were the target.
- SO DON'T COMPLAIN BEFORE YOU LISTEN! It is not fair to the manufacture and it can be particularly misleading.
- Don't comment on the sound if you haven't listened to any of the AS series whether positive or negative (really just repeating the last point).
The old thread has gotten kind of lengthy so I will try to put links to useful posts from the last thread here (Thanks to AuralHygiene and Gilly87 for compiling this list from the old thread and to everyone who sends/sent me their link(s) to their review(s)):

Deeplinks Blog posts about PATRIOT Act
A lot remains uncertain about the number of users affected by the NSA PRISM surveillance program that is taking place, the extent to which companies are involved, and how the NSA handles this sensitive data. Does the NSA regularly collect and examine a huge swath of the cloud communications of American and foreign Internet users? Does the agency present evidence and seek careful judicial review to obtain limited amounts of user data related to individual investigations? Or is the answer somewhere in the middle, with queries being constructed such that algorithms scan most or all of the accounts, identifying a smaller set of "interesting" accounts whose contents are sent to the NSA?
The NSA's Word Games Explained: How the Government Deceived Congress in the Debate over Surveillance Powers
ANDREA MITCHELL: "Why do you need every telephone number? Why is it such a broad vacuum cleaner approach?"
JAMES CLAPPER: "Well, you have to start someplace."—NBC Meet the Press, this past Sunday
Concerned about the surveillance of millions of ordinary Americans, last year Senator Ron Wyden asked Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, Jr. a simple question: "Does the NSA collect any type of data at all on millions or hundreds of millions of Americans?"
"[The National Security Agency's] capability at any time could be turned around on the American people, and no American would have any privacy left, such is the capability to monitor everything: telephone conversations, telegrams, it doesn't matter. There would be no place to hide." —Senator Frank Church, 1975
President Obama gave an influential speech on counter terrorism and national security policy last week, and while much of the media coverage discussed the President remarks on Guantanamo prison and drone strikes, buried in the speech was a line just as critical to civil liberties online.
Half way through the speech, Obama said he wanted to "review[] the authorities of law enforcement, so we can intercept new types of communication, and build in privacy protections to prevent abuse."
As 2012 came to a close, Congress reauthorized the FISA Amendments Act (FAA) for another 5 years. Yes, the same FAA under which the government conducted unconstitutional surveillance; the same FAA for which the government refuses to estimate the number of Americans who have been spied on; and yes, the same FAA that has been interpreted in substantial ways within secret court opinions.

I'll make a block for you too. let me know what you are making and I'll get it to you right away.
Printable View
Thanks all for your words of comfort. All the dogs (and cats, ferret, hedgehog, gerbils, hamster, tortoise, birds) that I've sheltered over the last 40 years came to me as rescues or hand-me-downs. Nothing worse than someone getting a pet, then getting tired of caring for it once the novelty is gone or it needs a good haircut. My two daughters were the worse for "My mom will take it" when their friends got bored with their new pets. I am fortunate to have a vet for a good friend so I can get them care when necessary and rarely have to wait since I know where she lives. A few of my adoptees have special needs (like the pit mix who sounds like she wants to eat other dogs and small children and the UPS man) or the 35 lb vegetarian tortoise who only eats Romaine lettuce (pricey out of season) and can't be exposed to temps lower than 65 or higher than 90. ( Lived in a kiddy pool in my closet for many years -- now has a pen in the garage shop.) But nothing beats the companionship of a dog or cat. I never know exactly where my dogs have come from or what kind of care they did or didn't have before I get them (or more likely they show up) ...I don't even have a CLUE AS to what breed some of them are. Who can guess as to what they've been exposed to or what's been bred into them. But those little ones that cuddle up and follow you from room to room -- those are the ones that leave big prints on your heart. Unconditional acceptance on their part. If I can smile even once a day at their antics, I feel they have so earned their keep. Each one is unique in its personality and needs. I don't think I would survive long without their companionship.
Thanks for your offer, Robert, but I did accept a couple offers already, and I'm sure your plate is more than full with the holidays coming up. I'm still working on the maple leaf block, but am in no hurry to finish the quilt. You do so much for so many. I appreciate your thinking of me. Will take a raincheck on your offer for when things slow down after the holidays.
Has anyone heard from MadeinMaine. I haven't seen her on here for over a week. I hope everything is okay with her, as I kow quite a few have tried to send her pm and her box is full. I know that one of my pm's did go through about joining this Monthy Quilting Bee Block Swap. Haven't heard anything Mine went through about the 7th of November. Was hopin to hear from her before the month is over to join. I am really looking forward to being a part of this group.
She was my partner for October, she acknowledged receiving my block. She said she was working on mine, but that's been 3 wks ago, haven't heard from her since.. Am hoping all is ok with her.
I would like to join this, have never done one before. Can anyone tell me who to contact to add my name if its not to late? Thanks Teresa
Sorry Nancy, it's too late. I already made one. Will get it off to you in the mail next week. Here are some pics of it.It's the fall pumpkin with the fall leave background.
Anna, yours are almost done and will post the nativity tomorrow or Sunday. 210226,00 stitches. YIKES
Also, Nelco yours are done and here they are too.
All the best
Thank you Robert. I am sure it will take my breath away.
Wow, Robert -- That block is beautiful, and I already know what I'm going to do with it. So, I owe you one. You make me feel guilty that my embroidery machine and I seem to have "a failure to communicate". I wish you lived closer so I could watch what you're doing.
