There's probably not a day that goes by that I wonder if I'm doing the "right" things in raising my children. Am I too laid back? Am I too permissive? Do I not push hard enough? Do I push too hard? Do I not set the right expectations?
Last week I went to see the new documentary "Race to Nowhere." It is a documentary by a mom turned film maker about the heightened pressures on today's youth (placed upon them by the school AND parents), and the resulting ill effects – stress disorders, depression, and ultimately suicide. From the moment they enter high school (and for many kids this pressure has started years earlier), they are grooming themselves to be accepted by "the right" college. They need to get straight As, they need to excel at a sport, which many times means year-round and multi-hour daily commitment. They have to be involved in all the right extra-curricular activities, and hopefully have a leadership position. They have to put in their community service hours every week, and at the same time figure out just what is unique about them that will capture an admissions officer's attention. A pretty tall order, even for the most motivated and accomplished kids. Is there any downtime in these kids' lives anymore? Not much. Well, maybe their meals.
Everyone seems to be playing this game. Unfortunately the passing of the No Child Left Behind Act several years ago has removed much of the creative oriented and problem solving curriculum from the schools. Teachers have been forced to teach to the test, and in doing so need to forego styles and practices of teaching which would most likely be so much more beneficial. A professor from a medical school was interviewed in Race to Nowhere. She stated that the transition in the types of students coming in to school over the past 10 years is dramatic. These students want to be told exactly what is going to be on the test. They don't know how to problem solve or apply critical thinking. "What's going to happen with our future doctors when a patient walks in with obscure symptoms?", she asks. These students won't know what to do. That's pretty scary stuff.
High Schools are in a race to offer more AP classes, and encourage kids to participate in more of these demanding courses. What once was an opportunity for seniors – (I remember taking 2 AP classes my senior year) – is now being pedaled to sophomores, and is dominating a good part of the Juniors and Seniors' schedules. Now it's a race to see how many AP classes you can have on your schedule or resume. My children's high school has a local business funded grant that pays for performance on AP exams. Score a 4 or 5, and earn $100. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? My head and heart tell me it is a bad thing, but I know there are many that disagree.
Colleges too are playing the numbers game. With the common application, annual applications are increasing by the double digits year after year, allowing the colleges to promote their lower yields. This makes the importance of achieving high (near perfect) GPAs and SAT scores all the more critical, as these two measures serve as a sorting mechanism in the application process.
Another output of this "perfect storm" of pressure is that cheating is at an all time high. In our school system, which is a completely integrated system, you see kids of all types. There are children arriving at school who have horrific home lives – perhaps living in a shelter with one parent, while the other parent is in jail. It's hard to imagine how these kids can hold their lives together – and if anyone cheats, you would imagine it's those that get no support outside of the school, and may lack any direction or motivation within the school. But no, the cheating is happening at the other end of the spectrum. And it's rampant. Kids passing along cheat sheets during an AP US History exam…. or someone pulling out their iPhone to google a question. This drive to succeed, when there is little time to breathe, is backfiring.
Homework is another culprit. I know parents who have pulled their children out of the public school system in elementary school because they weren't receiving enough homework. They would almost boast , on the sides of the Little League field, of the 3 to 4 hours of homework their 4th or 5th grader would get in the private school. Homework, to some, serves as a marker for success. However, research shows there is no correlation between homework and success. In fact, studies show that homework can hinder success. An AP Biology teacher interviewed in the movie decided to reduce the amount of homework he was giving by 50%. The result? More success on the AP exams. As is true everywhere, homework dominates the nightly dynamic at home – kids sitting in their rooms, trying to get through pages upon pages of monotonous, dry text. The time is being logged, but is anything sinking in to this exhausted mind and body at 10PM? At least in college you don't have to be up by 6, and put in a full day of class and athletics, which typically gets you home by 6 or 7, at which time you need to sit down for another 6 hours to slog through all the homework.
It's interesting that this movie is hitting us at the same time we're learning about the practices of the "Tiger Mom" – the lawyer from New Haven, Connecticut who didn't allow her two daughters to have play dates or sleep overs, who demanded straight As, who would force a child to sit at a piano for hours until a piece was perfected (even foregoing dinner to do so). What is the result? Well, she has two very accomplished daughters, who have earned straight As all through school and are extremely talented musicians. Yes, they most likely will be admitted to "the college" their parents have in mind for them. But are they happy? Were the sacrifices of having a normal, balanced childhood worth it? It's ripe for debate.
Contrast the Tiger Mom 's Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother to another book that was just recommended – The Blessing of the B- by Wendy Mogul. More interesting to me is the fact that this recommended book was offered up in a quick by chance exchange and not preceded by any of the foregoing discussion. This whole dilemma is obviously front and center in so many of our minds.
It's a baffling volleyball of emotions with no clear way to navigate. So… do we push for the A, or settle for the B-? Do we ask for their personal best, and be satisfied with the result, no matter what it is? I don't know what the answer is – and it's a topic that takes up some share of mind on a daily basis. I do know that it is worthwhile to keep a pulse on our children's well being, help them keep all the craziness in perspective and find some downtime.

Editor's Note
By Rachel Gogos
Resources for a Stupendously Successful 2012
It's nearly the end of January – by now your goals have been set and your action plan is likely in full swing. If you need some additional resources to help you stay steadfast and true to your 2012 plans then keep reading.
Over the last few months I have found some excellent resources to help you meet your resolutions, work on your various strategies and continue on the yellow brick road to success. Below I'm going to share links to some of the best resources I've seen on the web (no affiliate links are listed below – just sharing some worthwhile resources):
Focus & Planning
- An unusual approach that I really like is Chris Brogan's three words. Ever since I read about the "three words approach" a few years ago I try and do it myself. The concept is pick three words to guide your goals and actions vs. making one or two lofty resolutions. My three words for this year or Laser, Heart and Write.
- Marie Forleo has put together some easy to use tools to help you plan out your goals for the upcoming year and to help you focus on accomplishing your most important thing as well as a nifty yearlong action-planning tool. I love the simple planning template because you can use it for various aspects of your company – editorial calendar, marketing tactic calendar, networking check-ins and much more.
Media, Marketing & Social Media
- Derek Helpern's, How to Get Major Media Coverage with No Connections is excellent! Check out his free Social Triggers Master Class called Social Media Insider – it's entirely web-based but so far, has some great content. Derek's high energy and no-nonsense approach makes him easy to listen to and learn from.
- A Strategy for Managing Social Media Proliferation is a pretty hefty report prepared by Jeremiah Owyang of Altimeter Group. The focus is to help you get control of your social media before you get overwhelmed and over-saturated. Haven't read through this in it's entirety but Altimeter is an excellent group.
- If YouTube and video creation is a big part of your marketing this year then definitely check out James Wedmore. He's making a splash with his YouTube marketing business but he also passes along lots of great advice via his blog posts. And given that Google owns YouTube – your time with James will be well spent. You've probably noticed that Google is indexing video more and more and higher and higher on its search results!
- The best all-in-one free marketing course out there is by Copyblogger Media. These guys have their game down to a science. Sign up for the course and receive it right in your email inbox.
- One of the best Facebook marketing resources is Amy Porterfield, author of All in One Facebook Marketing for Dummies. Amy released an excellent product to help you build your brand on Facebook called Facebook Influence (along with Lewis Howes). I highly recommend checking it out.
Business Growth
- A former client of mine, Ashley Acker, recently launched her terrific new business called Entrepreneur Jungle. If you're starting a business or need marketing help check it out. There are loads of free things that can help you get moving in the right direction. Ashley's content is extremely well thought out and packaged. You can learn so much just from seeing how she markets her own work. But start with her Jungle Survival Kit or by enrolling for her free Wednesday webinars.
There is lots of incredible content out there for free. You can learn so much just by investing some time, if you have it! If you've stumbled upon some other great resources, because I've merely touched on a few here, share them through the comments section.
Here's to a stupendously successful 2012.
Rachel Gogos is the Chief Brand Builder at brandiD, a digital marketing and web design firm specializing in building unique, attention-getting, online identities through personal branding, social media, and highly differentiated WordPress sites.

President is very ready for work – Osinbanjo
PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari has formally written to members of the National Assembly informing them that he has resumed his functions as the President of the country. The letters were addressed to the Senate and the House of Representatives. It would be recalled that the President returned to the country on
Friday after spending about 49 days on an extended medical vacation in the United Kingdom, UK. At a brief ceremony at the presidential villa, Buhari indicated that he had been very sick, and that he might return to the UK for more medical checks "within some weeks". A statement issued yesterday Buhari's Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina explained that the presidential communication to the National Assembly was in compliance with Section 145 of the 1999 Constitution
(as amended). "I have resumed my functions as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria with effect from Monday, March 13, 2017, after my vacation," Adesina quoted his principal as writing in the letter. Meanwhile, Buhari has met
with his deputy, Prof Yemi Osinbajo inside the President's office at the Presidential Villa, Abuja. Osinbajo arrived for the meeting at about 12 noon shortly after the President arrived his office for the first time since his sojourn in London.

5 January 2015 Weather Outlook - NOAA Updates January Outlook - El Nino Continues to Fade
Written by Sig Silber
NOAA has updated their January Outlook. This is routine. The Early Outlook is issued with the Seasonal Outlook on the Third Thursday of each month and is then updated on the last day of the month. The update in this case is not a major change from the prior Early Outlook. El Nino continues to fade and NOAA refuses to acknowledge that other than by now making excuses for it. Their forecast was not incorrect but the atmospheric circulation pattern did not respond correctly. The predicted convection pattern with a reduction in the Easterlies along the Equator has not occurred. Also what some call the Ridiculously Resilient Ridge (RRR), common during La Nina Conditions, formed and storms are being sent north rather than entering the Lower 48 States further south. At some point, reality will set in or the Winter will be over.
A more compete report can be found here. This is a summary report.
Let us start with excerpts from the update of the January Outlook which was issued on December 31, 2014.
Short-term Outlook
Now let us take a look at the 8 - 14 day outlook that was issued today January 5, 2015. It will auto-update every day so it will be changing day by day (and thus be up to date whenever you elect to read this report) but my comments may become out of sync with the map since my comments do not auto-update.
I am only showing the "second week" namely the day 8 -14 outlook. The first week together with much additional information on current weather patterns and near-term forecasts can be found in Part II of my report, but 8 - 14 days covers most of the 6 - 14 day period.
Here is the 8 - 14 Day Temperature Outlook.
And here is the updated January Temperature Outlook issued on December 31, 2014.
The cold intrusion from the North projected in the January Outlook issued just five days may have been focused on the very early part of the month. .
And here is the 8 - 14 Day Precipitation Outlook.
And here is the updated January 2015 Precipitation Outlook issued on December 31, 2014.
The first part of January looks to be a lot different than the full month outlook issued just five days ago. This may well be related to the continuation of the high pressure ridge off the West Coast which is not supposed to be there during El Nino Conditions.
And excerpts from the NOAA discussion covering the January 5, 2015 6 - 14 Day Outlook.
Analogs to Current Conditions
Now let us take a more detailed look at the "Analogs" which NOAA provides related to the 5 day period centered on 3 days ago and the 7 day period centered on 4 days ago. "Analog" means that the weather pattern then resembles the recent weather pattern and was used in some way to predict the 6 - 14 day Outlook.
What are they telling us today?
Today there are nine distinct analogs (one is repeated in the 3 day and 4 day analysis). Of the nine, five are associated with prior La Nina situations and four with prior ENSO Neutral situations. That is very strange when NOAA is promoting an El Nino.
Sometimes it is useful to take a look at the location of the Jet Stream or Jet Streams. You can see how the ridge of high pressure off the West Coast is currently forcing the Jet Stream inland and then creating a large trough in the center of the Lower 48.
And sometimes the forecast is revealing. Below is the forecast out five days. It looks a lot more progressive than the pattern today and you can see the southern branch really impacting the Southeast and actually it seems to be merging with the Northern Branch. .
To see it in animation, click here. At the time this article was published, the animation shows a tendency for there again to be a Southern Branch of the Polar Jet Stream in addition to the usual Northern Branch. A southern stream can bring storms further south than usual.
And below is a another view which highlights the highs and the lows re air pressure on Day 6.
This appears to show that the ridge of high pressure will in six days still be sitting off the West Coast. A quick way of assessing the intensity is simply to observe the distance between the isobar lines. When they are coiled tightly, this signifies a strong high or low. So you can see that this high is not that strong. However when you look at the jet stream you can see that our weather is being directed north over this high pressure ridge. Thus what is "claimed" to be an El Nino type pattern is behaving more like a La Nina type pattern and this is showing up in the analogs. Also highs are clockwise and lows are counterclockwise so you can see the channel that is created at the surface which corresponds with the jet stream in this case providing the path of lest resistance for storm systems. They are being sent north.
Computer models have the ability to predict these conditions but the graphics I present reflect either current conditions or the predicted conditions and make it fairly easy to interpret the implications of what the current readings and the computer models imply for our weather. Professional meteorologists look at much more information that I present here and know more than I do but they are also skilled at converting their knowledge into graphics that a lay person can understand. So that is what I attempt to do in my weekly report with the ultimate goal of being able to translate the weather and climate into economic impacts. There is a learning curve here.
This longer animation shows how the jet stream is crossing the Pacific and when it reaches the U.S. West Coast is going every which way. One can imagine that attempting to forecast this 6 - 14 days out is quite challenging.
El Nino Discussion
Now let us look at the latest NOAA Hovmoellers.
There are many graphics that NOAA provides every Monday but I focus on three and today I thought I would start with what probably is the most important one that I call the Kelvin Wave graphic but it is really the Upper Ocean Heat Anomaly along the Equator which is caused in many cases primarily by Kelvin Waves.
There is quite a bit of change since last week. This Kevin Wave has not moved further east very much which you can tell by the almost vertical edge to the dark tan area over by 90W. In fact it has retreated. Remember, the bottom of the graphic is current conditions so you can see the position of the Kelvin Wave on a daily basis. It is most likely that this graphic is up to date as of last Friday. You can actually read (I print and use a ruler) the amount of the impact of this Kevin wave along the Equator by looking at how many degrees of latitude are impacted by the darker shades along the bottom of the graphic. It is much less this week than last week. In fact there is almost no impact.
On the other hand, you can actually now see what appears to be the next Kelvin Wave but it will not impact things this winter but this Spring. It is a bit too soon to be able to look at this graphic and make a judgment on the strength of the next Kelvin wave. But it is starting very far west.
Now let us look at the Sea Surface Temperatures
Again there is significant change since last week as you can see less warm water along the Equator. At 110W one sees what might be the playing out of what had been a fairly consistent patch of warm water. Also right off the coast of Ecuador you see that little patch of blue. Overall it probably no longer records as El Nino Conditions although I do not have access to a daily value of the ONI. The color coding is not very refined in this graphic as it is in units of 0.5 with the threshold for El Nino Conditions using just the ONI is 0.5. So my best guess is about 0.4 to 0.5. We will see a better estimate in the fourth graphic that I present.
Of most interest to NOAA is 170 W to 120 W as that is where the ONI Index is measured. More information can be found here. If you look at the color coding in the above Hovmoller they are looking for shades where the redder the better re conditions being El Nino but so far it is just showing shades of tan and brown i.e. marginal especially when averaged over the entire area of interest. But that explains why we have a situation where some of the factors are in place for an El Nino but so far it is marginal at best and fading fast.
And now the low-level wind anomalies.
This shows quite a bit of change from last week. This type of graphic often is most revealing when read from the bottom up because the bottom is the most recent readings (probably as of last Friday). The NOAA ENSO update is issued first thing Monday morning each week. So it is not strange that it is based on Friday data. In recent weeks, the "reddish" area has been much reduced and there is more "blue" including over towards Ecuador. You do see a westerly wind burst way off to the left which is consistent with the probable new Kelvin wave that was shown earlier but that is in another part of the Pacific. But in the area of most interest with respect to the near-term development of an El Nino, we have stronger rather than weaker Easterlies.
The Southern Oscillation Index (SOI) was cooperating at the beginning of this week but that changed after two days. You can find the daily and 30 and 90 day averages here. It seems that the SOI is fluctuating on a weekly basis from strongly negative to barely negative. With the SOI there is always a cause and effect issue. Is the SOI a cause of or a result of warm water being to the east? The SOI is an imperfect index as the two reference points are not on the Equator. The 30 day average of -6.9 is close but not quite even marginal for El Nino conditions (a 30 day average of -8.0 or more negative is considered to be consistent with El Nino conditions) and --6.9 is not very suggestive of El Nino conditions becoming more robust. Today's reading is -2.21 which is more favorable for an El Nino than yesterday but not sufficient to be constructive. The week as a whole was not constructive.
And finally the latest model results released by NOAA and these are as of Saturday January 3.
This graphic is a modified version of the graphic that appears on Page II of this Report. It is modified by NOAA to be consistent with the maps on the right which can be found here. Those maps have been processed to adjust for the observed skill of the models. As you can see, December was the peak of this El Nino and January is already sub-El Nino on the ONI scale and future months look even less like an El Nino. The correct term for the current situation is ENSO Neutral on the warm side. There is for anyone with normal vision absolutely no prediction of El Nino in this graphic. Although these models are not reliable further out, there are signs that this warm event will last beyond the April/May timeframe that is suggested by the recently released NOAA Seasonal Outlook maps which can be found in Page II of this Report. Those maps cover the NOAA Outlook for 14 months. It is a little difficult to read the above graphic as they have data points that represent three month averages and then a data point for December and another for January. It is not clear to me if those two monthly data points are intended to represent points in time or monthly averages. The solid black line which represents the actual daily numbers is only completed through about Mid-December. So from there on it is forecasted data. It does not matter very much as you can see that the ONI has peaked and it is declining.
Here is another graphic that confirms that we are not in an El Nino. I probably should have divided this graphic into two pieces and only showed the bottom piece but I got lazy and perhaps the two together are more useful anyway. The top graphic shows conditions along the Equator, 10 degrees north to 10 degrees south of the Equator and this is one of the most up-to-date sources of information available. The top graphic shows surface temperatures and wind direction and speed. The bottom graphic shows anomalies.The bottom graphic shows the deviation from average conditions. You can see two things in that graphic. First of all you can see the pockets of warm water which are in some cases greater than 1C above average and in other cases below 0.5C above average conditions. The difference between this graphic and the Hovmoeller earlier is that the Hovmoeller only showed conditions on the Equator or very close to the equator while this shows conditions a bit above and a bit below the equator. You can also see the wind anomalies which are Easterly whereas in an El Nino the Easterlies are supposed to relax and be less strong. This graphic shows them to be stronger than usual which coincides with the SOI readings.
As an aside you can see what is called the "cold tongue" where the current coming up from Antarctica is redirected out to sea as it runs into Peru.
You can read more about it here courtesy of Wikipedia.
It all fits together.
So this continues to look to me like a warm event that is not a full fledged El Nino this year but which may last longer than NOAA thinks but have different impacts than they think also. So far that has certainly been the case. We shall see if that continues. I am still thinking the Japanese sized this up from the start and that this is really more like a Modoki than a traditional El Nino and that weather patterns are shifted some number of degrees further west than would be the case for a traditional El Nino. The Australians have consistently been skeptical that this would develop into an El Nino of any strength.
I do not see a traditional El Nino of any significant strength likely to happen this winter although a "near" El Nino appears to be making its presence known but mainly outside of the U.S. It appears to be a very complicated situation mostly because of the at least temporary shift of the configuration of the Pacific with respect to the location of warm and cold water to a configuration which is called PDO Positive (+) combined with the Blocking Ridge off the West Coast.
Global Warming Update
I thought this was an interesting article. It relates past episodes of sudden Global Warming to the current one.
I thought you could click on that graphic and it would enlarge but as I am testing it that does not seem to work so if you want a larger version simply go to the full article that I have linked above and I know you can click on that and it will enlarge. It kind of puts things in perspective. It also shows how stable the temperature has been for the past 10,000 years. Perhaps we have gotten complacent and drawn a conclusion that climate is stationary. That may indeed be ideal but over geologic time has not been the case. It may not even be ideal since as far as I can tell, no one has defined "ideal" with respect to world climate. One might argue that since people live in places with very different climates there may not be an ideal climate. If there was, would not everyone want to live there? I loved it in the Cloud Forests of Costa Rica and my life partner could not stand the humidity. So we live in New Mexico where high humidity is rarely an issue.
Click Here for the Econointersect Weather and Climate Page (which I call Page II) where you will find:
For now this is all in one article which may be a little difficult to navigate but that will soon change and there will be two links: one to the weather and climate information and a second link to the Global Warming information.

Why do you think the score does not reflect the quality of your hub?
sort by best latest
Recently, I wrote a hub about how to make a success of your college education. It was titled, "I Wish I'd Known This The First Time I Went To College!" When I first published it, it ranked a 42, which really bothered me, because I felt the information was extremely important. But it soon moved up to the 70s, staying there ever since.
I think for some reason the moderators didn't believe it would be a popular topic, but I've gotten lots of postings on there, so apparently it is.
Sounds like a very informative and useful hub. Most hubs will start out below 50 if you publish them right away. Did you know that If you let it set a bit (days) while reworking or editing BEFORE publishing it- the score will slowly rise?
Thanks - I didn't know that. I uploaded a bunch of hubs about my European tour, containing only pictures. One by one, I wrote and published them. They were ranking in the 60s before publishing. I felt the college one was more important than those.
I really like my music hubs, but they seem to score low and not attract much traffic. The musicians I have written about are not super-stars, most of the general public probably won't recognize their names, but they all do have a following.
Traffic is still a puzzle to me. A few of my hubs I whipped together quickly - they amazed me with lots of traffic. My hub series, co-written with Unchained Grace, was the most powerful experience yet as a writer but its a low traffic series.
Yes, but I am new to HubPages.
It seems like when I write with passion, I sometimes think it will fly with supersonic speed but the truth is, some of my Hubs that I wasn't all that passionate about, were the the successful ones.
I guess maybe my passion might make me seem too opinionated, while something else I'm less passionate about, makes me less biased.
Good thought BuffaloGal. There is a balance when we write something we are passionate about. We can chase people away if we communicate harshly or we can draw people into our thought process by creatively laying it out with winsome words. Thanks!
One of my hubs had a score of 88. I recently IMPROVED the hub by correcting some grammar issues. The score is now 72.
This place is confusing to say the least. I improve a hub and get marked down for it. What's next, hubs disappearing from Google. Oh! That's happening too.
I've just about had it with this place.
I have found it helpful to write to the hub team with concerns like you posed here. I have always found their answers helpful. This doesn't make sense to me either. I encourage you to write them at email@example.com. Let me know what you learn.

I re did the laptop again, had to update my ipad. Downloaded the traktor dj app and not plan on using it. Totally a waste of time after I did all the updates with all the apps I had on the ipad. What makes it so bad you had to pay for the app when it first came out. And now it's free too download in the app store. With that being said the new trakor pro update releases mapping for the remix decks also.
So the people who brought the kontrol F1 might feel some type of way now, and those who paid that money for the traktor dj app.
I'm still on touch osc and thinking about getting the lemur app for $50.00. The new live control uses the lemur platform so. Plus max for live is a big play in my book for routing different midi actions with devices. Meaning 1 controller running 3 apps on the laptop at one time. It's a beautiful thing with pages of multiple simple interfaces that you make to comprehend.

Resume writing and career advice
job search tips/workplace trends
Featuring career experts, recruiters, hiring managers and decision makers who help you get hired
Dear Matt: I know it's important to volunteer and give back, but how does it really help me in the job search, or with advancing my career?
Matt: A recent survey by Robert Half found that 41 percent of U.S. professionals said they volunteer, resulting in these professional benefits:
"Volunteering also lets employers know that you are committed to a cause," says Kwapick. "That passion and drive is something that employers want to see in their employees. It shows you are working to help others, create a better local community, and are committed to bettering yourself – both personally and professionally."
It can also be a way for professionals to develop new and different skills, or an opportunity to show a different side of one's personality that doesn't come out during the busy workday. Consider it the non-networkers way to network.
"Volunteering is one of the best ways to network, which remains an essential activity for professionals at all levels," says Kwapick.
Volunteering is an excellent way to bolster your resume, especially if you're a new grad trying to gain experience or an established professional looking to switch careers or gain experience in a new field While a laundry list of volunteer experience on a resume isn't going to get you the next job (unless it's directly related to that job), it can show more about your personal side that employers covet. And, volunteering can help job seekers meet new contacts that could lead to a new opportunity. For those who may not be searching for a new job, volunteering helps professionals meet new customers and build business contacts. Oftentimes, people who volunteer are passionate about that cause and may have other interests in common.
"You never know when a professional you've met through volunteering may become a key contact for a job opportunity or new career path," says Kwapick.
Four ways professionals can get started volunteering:
1. Check with your employer. Many companies have ties to nonprofit organizations or facilitate charitable activities. Other companies offer volunteer matching or grant programs for those employees who give their time.
2. Find an organization in need. Search for organizations you care about in your community (volunteermatch.org), and then contact them to see how they could use your help. Be sure to explain your particular skills and interests.
3. Invite your colleagues to join you. One person can make a big impact, but there could be power in numbers if your coworkers come, too.
4. Look beyond the holidays. There are community service opportunities available throughout the year, such as park cleanups and exercising for a good cause.
Your comment will be posted after it is approved.

My beautiful 10-year-old (estimated at the time of this video) black Labrador dog that we adopted a few years ago is the sweetest creature on the planet. We adopted her when we were passing through Idaho. It seemed that this hunter's dog was too old to be of use and she was just put out on the street. At least that was the popular theory from the Pet Adoption League office we found her at. She was probably raised in a very utilitarian way. She doesn't know toys or games… just love for her fellow humans that she lives with.
Anyway, I think she's more than just an ordinary dog. In the video below, you'll notice that she seems rather focused on catching the roller coaster as it goes by, and as the roller coaster goes out of sight, well, there too, goes Izzy.
Crazy, huh?
Update: What's crazy is YouTube (Google) terminating my account because someone marked my Pacific Rim movie clip as a violation of some policy. (Yes, the very same vid that's hosted some 400,000+ times on YT!) Who'd a thunk!
Double Update 12-11-13: YouTube let me have my account back. Woo hoo!
So here's my puppy, (may she rest in peace), chasing a train, over on DailyMotion!
Izzy Chasing Roller Coasters 2565b by brusimm
Even though she didn't play with toys like most dogs do, she does love chasing trains, roller coasters and fireworks. Go figure.

TSMarine Sets Records with Woodside Well Intervention Project
TSMarine has successfully completed phase one of its rigless intervention activity on Woodside's Vincent project, offshore Western Australia. This marks the first ever fully integrated rigless subsea well intervention project in the Asia Pacific region.
TSMarine's Perth subsidiary operates a multi-year service contract with Woodside Energy Ltd and this milestone project has seen TSMarine's offshore well intervention vessel, the Havila Harmony successfully deploy, install and test seven subsea trees and carry out wireline intervention on all seven wells.
This is the first phase of a campaign by TSMarine which will include the installation and completion of up to 11 subsea trees in the Vincent field and a range of commissioning and decommissioning projects in region.
The project marked a number of other milestones. This was the first time the deployment and installation on wire of subsea Christmas tress from a monohull vessel has taken place in the region. Similarly, it was the first time a subsea well intervention project has been carried out using wireline services from a monohull vessel in Australian waters.
The intervention was completed in partnership with WellOps South East Asia and Schlumberger, both of which were integral to the success of the operation.
Alasdair Cowie, CEO of TSMarine explained: "The world record water depth for subsea wireline intervention from a monohull vessel is 377 meters," explained Alasdair Cowie, CEO of TSMarine. "In our first ever subsea well intervention project we operated at a water depth of 372 meters, a significant achievement within this hugely successful project."
"The success of this project is a culmination of over two years of planning and engineering, working closely with our customer Woodside Energy and our primary subcontractors," said John Edwards regional director of TSMarine's Asia Pacific operations. "Achieving wireline runs with significant success rates, and reaching downhole well depths of 1450 meters from the Harmony is an extremely pleasing result that is of fundamental importance to the next stage of our campaign with Woodside Energy."
The project was completed in four stages - detailed engineering, mobilization, subsea tree deployment, and wireline well intervention.
From the Havila Harmony, the trees were run using the vessels 150 tonne active heave compensated crane and a simple mechanical running tool. Locking and testing was supplied by the vessels ROV systems, which were fitted with a specially developed hydraulic power and tooling pack. Hanger and deep-set plugs were removed by slick line intervention using Wellops subsea lubricator (SID) and Schlumberger Wireline Services.
The Havila Harmony is on long-term charter to TSMarine and was delivered in March 2007.
She is configured to undertake subsea decommissioning; rigless well intervention services, and subsea construction support activities and has a comprehensive safety case accepted by NOPSA, Australia's National Offshore Petroleum Safety Authority, covering these and more activities.
Built to the new and demanding "Clean Comfort V" Norwegian standards, the ship conforms to the highest level of environmental class conditions required of vessels of this type in the offshore industry sector.
Following a recent GBP53 million investment, TSMarine expects to grow its own fleet of subsea decommissioning and rigless intervention vessels to five by late 2009, taking earnings to more than GBP100 million.

THANKS AGAIN FOR YOUR SUPPORT, YOUR CONFIDENCE AND YOUR PATIENCE DURING THIS LONG CROWDFUNDER which is now in its final days.
Your generosity has raised over $100,000 for the completion of this film, and with 4 days still to go until our Saturday, June 18th deadline.
We're still busy getting the word out through bulk mailings, personal e-mails, social media postings and telephone calls. And we hope that in the next few days others will follow your example and will come to the table to push our numbers up.
Ideally we'd love to see at least $113,000 when all is said and done. $113,000 would mean that two international crowdfunders in 2014 and 2016 will have raised a total of $300,000 for the production and completion of the first factually-accurate film about Wilhelm Reich.
And that is an accomplishment we can all be proud of: that a worldwide community comprising hundreds of people from dozens of countries rallied with one voice for a single purpose: the creation, at long last, of an intellectually-honest film about Reich to supplant the decades of damaging falsehoods, distortions and misrepresentations.
All in all, not a bad way for all of us to spend our time and money.
Thanks again.
Kevin Hinchey, Writer/Director (contact me at: email@example.com)

Schedule An Appointment
Before I went to Dr. Klement, I never smiled, because I was unhappy with my teeth or the way my smile looked. I knew I needed lots of dental work and was concerned about how it might feel. Dr. Klement was friendly, knowledgeable and put me at ease. Under her guidance, I had crowns, fillings and wisdom teeth removed all under oral sedation. I didn't feel anything and was totally relaxed. Everything turned out great. I get frequent compliments on my smile. It's really made a big difference in my life; I'm more outgoing and more confident.
N. Hardcastle
Recently when I had two crowns replaced, it was extremely important to me that they look as natural as possible. In fact, I had delayed having the dental work completed, because it was essential to me that it was done correctly. It was critical that I achieved a good end result. Dr. Klement and her team took the extra time to ensure that the procedure was done accurately and to my satisfaction. They valued my input on the cosmetic appearance of the dental work, and took the extra steps to bring about outstanding results. I am very pleased with the high standard of service that I received.

Time runs out for animal circuses ban to be agreed in Northern Ireland
The current Assembly has run out of time to prevent circuses with wild animals from obtaining entertainment licences, Environment Minister Mark H Durkan has said.
Around 2,000 people have signed a petition calling for a ban in Northern Ireland as part of a campaign spearheaded by Green Party leader Steven Agnew.
Mr Durkan said he shared their concerns about the welfare of animals in travelling circuses.
"A change to the entertainment licensing system will require primary legislation and there is insufficient time left to do so before the end of this Assembly mandate."
Elections are due next year.
Mr Agnew has said, even with the best of intentions, a travelling circus cannot meet the "five freedoms" of an animal, which include the right to behave normally and to be free from distress.
One of Ireland's largest circus owners, David Duffy, has said health checks by vets were rigorous and vowed to contest such an "extreme" change in court.
Mr Durkan said officials in Stormont's Department of Agriculture and Rural Development were working with their southern counterparts in the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine on the development of an all-island code of practice on animals in circuses.
The SDLP Environment Minister has established a licensing review group to make recommendations on a future system. The public consultation has just finished.
The USPCA has said it is opposed to exhibitions or presentations of animals in circuses.
It said they were performing to a timetable of acts which do not come naturally to them, as well as being exposed to ridicule and indignity.
Mr Agnew is on holiday but his party colleague, Belfast councillor Ross Brown, has worked closely with him on the issue.
Mr Brown told the Belfast Telegraph last night he is confident the issue will not be dropped.
He said: "It certainly might not come in this mandate, but if it is being consulted on it will likely go through in the next mandate.
"Departments would consult on issues and it will probably fall to whoever takes over from the current minister, but all the same, consultation will still stand.
"I would be disappointed if an opportunity is missed. And we hope it will not be forgotten about as it is very much on the agenda and the vast majority of people are against animal circuses," said Mr Brown.
The government in Westminster announced a ban in March 2012 on wild animals in circuses in England.
However, the ban has yet to take effect.
The Welfare of Animals Act 2011 lays out a code outlining five freedoms required to be met for non-farmed animals. You must take all reasonable steps to ensure that you meet the animal's needs including:
• A suitable environment;
• A suitable diet;
• To be able to exhibit normal behaviour patterns;
• To be housed with, or apart from, other animals;
• To be protected from pain, suffering, injury and disease.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Original Pictures Forum' started by robertsturf, Oct 24, 2010.
It came with the swing away mount for the tailgate.
We have 3 Br 600's and an old Redmax 7001 that needed to be replaced so I bought an Echo 770 today!! Can't wait to get and move some leaves. I moved the hose to the passenger side of the trailer it was too heavy getting it off the front every time. I installed bungee cords every 3' so I can leave the hose attached to the loader when I am driving to the next stop. Also with the new style impeller we are getting more lawns into the trailer which saves us money and time going to the dump. We are only paying 4.80 per lawn to dump our leaves based on what we are charged per load. Compared to 10.00-15.00 last year with my old set-up per lawn. Haven't filled it up yet. We got 7 lawns into it last week in 2 days. Now granted the leaves are just now falling heavily so this week will be a better test!!

A new genetic test can identify men who are most at risk of hair loss and who could benefit from a hair transplant.
The Manchester-based Farjo Medical Centre is now offering the simple test, which uses a DNA sample collected from a cheek swab to screen for a genetic predisposition to pattern baldness.
This is a common type of hair loss that affects most men at some stage, usually taking between 15 and 25 years to go bald.
People who are found to be at high risk of pattern baldness can take steps to reduce their hair loss or can opt to have hair transplant treatment as their hair begins to thin.
Dr Bessam Farjo, who co-founded the Farjo Medical Centre, revealed: "The genetic test enables risk of pattern baldness to be assessed before hair loss occurs.
"Earlier intervention and treatment give patients the best chance of success, as the only FDA approved medications to combat hair loss - minoxidil and finasteride - are most effective at stabilising hair loss rather than stimulating re-growth."
In a hair transplant, which is the only permanent method for restoring hair, strong hair follicles are removed from the back and sides of the head and transplanted into the thinning areas.

Hollywood has something of a reputation for creating sequels. The general trend is that each successor is somewhat duller than the last, but in this instance things just keep on becoming more and more interesting.
Dubbed 'The Fappening' and already the recipient of a force 12 media storm (that's a "hurricane" for you non-meteorologists out there), the third release in this increasingly tempestuous series made its debut on Friday night.
As per usual, users of 4chan and Reddit were made privy to the latest photos first. As well as even more of Jennifer Lawrence (who has she pissed off?!), users were treated to salacious snaps of model Cara Delevigne, Twilight actress Anna Kendrick and Olympic gold medallist Misty May-Treanor.
The photos of Kendrick are all fully-clothed, and mainly show her in social situations. The issue appears to have moved beyond the realm of embarrassment and 'revenge porn' and into the even murkier waters of general privacy.
Media attention over the last week zeroed in on the website EmmaYouAreNext.com, which stated that explicit snaps of the Harry Potter actress would soon be made public. In a bizarre case of double and triple bluff, the site was nothing but a hoax, appearing to call for 4chan to be shut down yet was probably still helmed by people associated with the leakers.
This is all getting very complicated now. Apple, while basking in the glow of their successful iPhone 6 launch (#bendgate aside), must shoulder some of the blame as it was their iCloud service that was breached.
Myriad questions hang over this issue. Is this just part three with a lot more to come? Who else will soon be exposed against their will? How many agents are receiving millions of frantic phone calls right now?
Most importantly of all… do you still crave fame now?

I want to have asian food this evening - and I don't want to venture from my Como Park area...so I want to know suggestions for asian food along University Avenue. Note: I have been to Little Szechuan and I have eaten at Mai Village. LS - I dug; Mai Village I did not.
So, any other recommendations? Thanks -
