Ray Evans
Ray Evans accepting his SCL Ambassadors honor from SCL President Dan Foliart at the 2003 SCL Holiday Dinner.
Ray Evans, along with his partner, Jay Livingston, has written some of the most memorable songs in the American songbook, garnering three Oscars and seven Academy Award nominations.
Starting as an entertaining duo on a cruise after meeting at the University of Pennsylvania, they began their careers playing for fraternity dances, Ray on sax and clarinet. Ray had aspirations toward a career in banking, which it seems that he more or less achieved.
Ray was awarded a contract with the Paramount Music Department in 1945. He wrote To Each His Own, which sold over a million copies of sheet music and this really started him on his road to fame.
Other classics soon followed, Mona Lisa, Silver Bells, Buttons and Bows, Never Let Me Go, Tammy, Que Sera, Sera, Dreamsville, Dear Heart, and Golden Earrings, to mention just a few, as well as his memorable themes to Bonanza and Mr. Ed.
Besides writing with Jay, the duo collaborated with many esteemed members of our community including Victor Young, Max Steiner and Henry Mancini. They contributed songs to many of Bob Hope's movies and even went with him on a USO tour. He essentially wrote for everyone who was anyone, Bing Crosby, Rosemary Clooney, Frank Sinatra, Dinah Shore and Andy Williams, to only mention a few.
Some of his biggest challenges: writing a song for Alfred Hitchcock titled Vertigo. Jay asked their singer what it meant, whose response was an island in the West Indies. Jay said no it's in the English Channel. They were both wrong. Another was the theme song to The Mole People for Universal.
Ray has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame; he was saluted with a special presentation by the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences (AMPAS). Perhaps most importantly, his songs were always composed for individually-crafted moments in the films.

NorCal Convergence 7
by Dave Wilsey
With the cooler weather arriving, chasing the crowds away, it was time for the second yearly installment of the NorCal Convergence. This is the seventh overall gathering and it proved that wakeskaters are very adaptable to last minute changes. About a week before we were scheduled to converge, a phone call was placed by Chris Barcellos to Camp Far West to go over last minute details. He was informed that the lake level was so low the entire lake was a no wake zone. Scramble. Sure we could have winched, but the NorCal Convergence is about more than just winching. So the last minute replacement was Orwood Resort on the California Delta. As it turns out, Orwood has its pros and cons, but the bottom line is another successful NorCal Convergence was had.
Most people started arriving in the afternoon on Friday. Added to the mix this time were two cars full of SoCal skaters making the 7+ hour trip. By the time Friday evening rolled around, there were 3 winches, two skis, a Malibu, and a Mastercraft ready for the weekend. Skates there included practically every Integrity model ever produced, SST's, a Zariel, an Oak, two brand new Devotids, and a Cassette Four Track. One of the pros of Orwood is the location itself which is very near civilization. This played into the hands of experienced campers like Keaton Bowlby and Grant Roberts. Over the course of the weekend the two of them put away over 70 inches of philly cheesesteak sandwiches and numerous other 'fast' food meals. Another pro is cell phone coverage. Grant's fingers only left his prized iphone when he was riding. Friday evening brought consumption…and construction of many lengthy "wizard staffs" until the duct tape supply ran out.
Saturday morning came early, and the Delta water was as good as it gets. While breakfast was had, some of us took quick ski sets. In fact, the oldest attendee at 41 landed a shuv! The majority of the day Saturday was spent in the two boats, shooting chase and enjoying the Delta water. Keaton and Grant threw down and some of the mortals like Mitch and Chad had great sets too. Boards were tried and I'm sure a few future sales will be made. By the time late Saturday afternoon arrived, we had all converged back at camp and it was time to winch the rails. With two winches running and the light fading, the absolute most was made of our short time at the rails. Saturday night had a much more subdued atmosphere, probably due to all the riding during the day and the aftereffects of the night before.
As the last day of the Convergence dawned, Grant took a final set behind his X2 and killed it, though he won't agree. After Grant's set, everyone packed up and prepared to go. Most left, but a few of us lucky ones stayed on to winch the rails one last time before departing. Of note during this session was Patrick's first try at a rail, which resulted in the crash of the weekend – see the pictures.
All in all, NorCal Convergence 7 was a smashing success. Whether you drove 7 minutes or 7 hours, it is worth the time. Seeing friends you only see a couple times a year is priceless. Meeting new people and making new friends is just as priceless. Throw wakeskating, into the mix and you have the ingredients to why we all do it. Camping, campfire shenanigans, beer tasting, donut fights, and goldfish showers are all icing on the cake.

- Start with your favorite pancake mix, measured for 8-12 pancakes, for Krusteaz I used about 1 1/2 cups of mix.
- Add: three egg whites and three whole eggs.
- 1 cup milk or water (skim milk will give you more vitamins and protein than water)
- 2 - 3 heaping scoops of vanilla protein powder.
- There are 3 types of pro-powder. Whey protein tastes the best and mixes well, soy protein is a bit more dry.
- Add: 2 cups of Oatmeal, quick or old-fashioned both work.
- Add: 1 tablespoon of oil
- And, finally, 1 cup of fresh or frozen blueberries (or the fruit of choice)
- Add more milk or water if the mix is too thick. The pancakes will be larger and dryer than you may be used to, but the house will smell like blueberry muffins!!
- Dr. Dave's suggestion to add taste without adding calories:
- Top your cakes with half the butter and half the syrup you're used to using, and add some low fat vanilla yogurt on top! (Another great choice is cinnamon applesauce on top!)
EDITOR'S NOTE: Don't worry about the carbs . . . you get lots of protein, low fat goodness and energy, and breakfast is THE most important meal of the day to jump-start your metabolism!!
Terri's notes:
- These do cook up like flat, hearty muffins rather than a pancake consistency.
- I am hooked! One pancake, plain with a bit of jam or a blueberry cake with nothing added, plus a glass of milk or cup of tea leaves me satisfied until past lunch time. I can even pass up the donuts in the break room, because I honestly don't care!
- I make a batch once a week (half plain, half blueberry-for variety), wrap individually in plastic wrap and freeze. Either toast or microwave one each morning for a great, quick breakfast. I prefer to wrap in a paper towel and microwave until just thawed and warm-don't over nuke!!!
- I added a couple tablespoons of wheat germ.
- I also used unflavored protein powder and added 2 teasp. of vanilla extract.
- Size varies according to your appetite, I make 8.

BOSTON (Reuters) - Wild perch living in water tainted with a commonly prescribed human anti-anxiety drug aggressively feed, shun other fish and become careless, according to the results of a study presented at a meeting of scientists on Thursday.
"We knew there was a pharmaceutical that was present in the environment that had behavioral-changing capabilities in humans, but what could this do to fish?" said chemist Jerker Fick of Umea University in Sweden.
The findings highlighted the potential ecological implications of even trace amounts of psychiatric pharmaceuticals that are excreted in human urine and survive wastewater treatment plant processes, scientists told a meeting in Boston of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
For the experiment, scientists divided 75 wild European perch into three groups. One group lived in clean water. The second group's water had low concentrations of Oxazepam, a commonly prescribed medication used to treat anxiety in humans.
The concentration was similar to what is found in waterways downstream from sewage treatment plants.
The third group's water had 500 times the amount of Oxazepam typically found in waterways. After a week, the fish were subjected to routine behavioral tests.
"Before we exposed the perch to the drug they were all very shy. They were not taking any risks at all basically. After exposure, they were swimming around much more, like they were unconcerned, and they were not as social. They just wanted to swim on their own. Some even avoided schools as much as possible," lead researcher Tomas Brodin, also with Umea University, told Reuters.
Fish exposed to Oxazepam also became more aggressive feeders, he said.
"I have no doubt that the behavioral effects we see are true and that they are potentially going on as we speak," Brodin said.
"This is a global issue," he added. "We find these concentrations (of psychiatric drugs) or close to them, all over the world."
The scientists plan to expand the study to look at the wider ecological effects of Oxazepam and to understand on a molecular level what happens to perch that are exposed to the drug.
The research appears in this week's Science magazine.

What to see in Pretoria
Pretoria Attractions
The best sightseeing opportunities in Pretoria involve its historical attractions. As the South African seat of government and the administrative capital of the country, the city has some famous landmarks.
These landmarks include the Union Buildings, where visitors can picnic in the lovely grounds and admire numerous monuments and memorials, the imposing Voortrekker Monument, which has been the topic of some controversy in South Africa, Melrose House, a restored Victorian mansion, and Kruger House, which serious history buffs will enjoy.
For those travelling with children Pretoria is a surprisingly fun city full of family activities. The zoo is a must, and a picnic in the Pretoria National Botanical Garden is a fun excursion. You could also start by taking the older kids paintballing. This is a high adrenaline game that involves a fair degree of pain when shot and is not suitable for kids younger than 12.
Another option outside of the city is quad biking, allowing one to rent mini quad bikes for riding around a large dirt track. It's a fun experience, closely supervised, but is also not suitable for kids under 10. A better bet for younger kids is skating at the Kolonnade Shopping Mall ice rink.
Of course, the many attractions of Johannesburg are very close by. Another fun excursion from Pretoria is a trip to Cullinan. Look out for Friends of the Rail, a heritage company that runs steam train trips from Pretoria to Cullinan and back. Slip the driver a tip and you can toot the horn.

text: Please help! We took our son home yesterday and he was breast feeding and latching well until yesterday early evening. He suddenly won't latch for more than a few seconds now and practically has a panic attack when my nipple comes near him. I have been pumping every 2 to 3 hours today since 9:30 am and feeding him with syringes, about 10 ml every 2 hours. Is there anyway to successfully breast feed while engorged or do I need to wait until they soften? How can I make this engorgement go away? He is 4 days old FYI.

The arrest of state Treasurer Martha Shoffner on federal extortion charges was not a complete surprise, although the process and new allegations were unexpected.
Shoffner had endured countless claims of mismanagement of her office, including a scathing legislative audit report last year regarding selling bonds before maturity and not following historical protocol of spreading the state's business around to various brokers.
So after it was revealed the FBI was investigating, many believed an arrest eventually would happen. Those procedures usually involve a target letter and allowing the person accused of so-called white-collar crimes to turn himself/herself in at a certain time. This was different.
Authorities arrested Shoffner at her Newport home after witnessing her receive a $6,000 cash kickback that was delivered in a pie box. The charge sounds eerily similar to a scene with the corrupt prison warden in the movie "Shawshank Redemption."
It appears Shoffner not only had mismanagement problems but some huge ethical lapses, too. The information filed against her alleges she accepted at least six such cash payments from a favored broker — two each at her home, at her Little Rock apartment and at the state Capitol.
One major point should not be missed: Shoffner was not qualified to do the job for which she was elected.
Shoffner was first elected in 2006, winning a Democratic primary runoff against Sen. Blanche Lincoln's tax counsel, Mac Campbell. That was back when winning the Democratic primary was tantamount to winning the election. Shoffner's experience consisted of three terms as a state House member from Newport and a career as a real estate agent.
Shoffner was fully eligible for the office to which she was elected. The only qualification in the state constitution is that the treasurer must be an Arkansas resident and cannot be "convicted of embezzlement of public money, bribery, forgery or other infamous crime." Also — revealing the dated nature of our 1874 state constitution — no officeholder can be an atheist or have fought a duel in the last 10 years.
There is no requirement that the state treasurer or state auditor have any accounting or finance experience. Some prior officeholders have had such experience, but not all. Such basic experience seems almost implied; the treasurer is basically the state's banker and the auditor is the state's accountant.
Most would be surprised that there also is no requirement for the state attorney general to be a licensed attorney or even have any legal experience. A previous version of the state constitution from 1864 required that, but not the current one. An attorney general's opinion by Mike Beebe in 2006 states "such a qualification is inherent in the very office itself, and required by the duties to be performed by him," but there is no constitutional requirement for it.
It is up to the voters, then, to determine the requirements for office by voting for the candidate they deem most qualified. For the most part, that has worked well for the office of attorney general where, as best I can tell, a non-lawyer has never been elected.
It has not worked out as well for those elected treasurer or auditor. We know about Shoffner's lack of pertinent experience. State Auditor is Charlie Daniels has no background in accounting or finance. He does have nearly three decades of experience as an elected constitutional officer and therefore enough wisdom to hire a competent staff and stay out of the way.
Let's face it, not many voters pay attention to down-ballot races. People often get elected without voters focusing on qualifications.
The question left is whether positions such as treasurer and auditor should be elected positions. Maybe the functions could fall under the umbrella of the Department of Finance and Administration. That would allow qualified employees to be hired to do the job and to be held accountable.
The catch is that both positions are creations of the state constitution, so changing them would require a constitutional amendment. Perhaps in light of the charges against Shoffner, voters will see why a different approach is needed. In the meantime, maybe they will focus a bit more on the qualification of candidates.

Mayor Don Wesely today presented the Mayor's Award of Excellence for December 2000 to Jason Ahlberg of the Parks and Recreation Department. The award, which was presented at the beginning of today's City Council meeting, recognizes city employees who consistently provide exemplary service and work that demonstrates personal commitment to the city.
Ahlberg has been a seasonal employee with Parks and Recreation since May 1988. This past summer, he was a Pool Manager at Eden Pool. He was nominated in the area of productivity by his supervisor, Holly Lewis, for his efforts to extend pool hours past the usual closing date because of the hot weather. On short notice, Ahlberg was asked to keep Woods Pool open on Saturdays and Sundays including Labor Day. He recruited staff from eight different pools and had the schedule ready to go by the time the extension was approved. Attendance figures from Labor Day weekend were among the top ten for the entire summer.
It was wholly due to Jason's enthusiasm, dedication and rapport with the staff that the late season effort was possible," Holly wrote. "He made the impossible seem easy."
In addition to productivity, the other categories in which employees can be nominated are loss prevention, customer relations, safety and valor. All city employees are eligible for the award except for elected officials and some managers. Individuals or teams can be nominated by supervisors, peers, subordinates and the general public.
Nomination forms are available from department heads, employee bulletin boards or the Personnel Department, which oversees the awards program. All nominations are reviewed by a committee, which includes a representative with each union and a non-union representative appointed by the Mayor. Award winners receive a $100 U.S. savings bond, a day off with pay and a plaque. Monthly winners are eligible to receive the annual award, which comes with a $500 U.S. savings bond, two days off with pay and a plaque.

Clinical Psychology Graduate Programs
Students might also learn about various emotional, behavioral and psychological disorders. This coursework is often combined with clinical research or internships, allowing students to practically apply their new knowledge outside the classroom.
Some Clinical psychology graduate programs may be designed to prepare students to work directly with patients. Others may focus more heavily on research. Therefore, whether you're interested in providing support as a licensed psychologisti or counselor,iii or pursuing roles in academia,iv attending earning a clinical psychology degree may be great step towards your goals.
What Is Clinical Psychology?
Clinical psychology is a specialty within psychology used to understand various mental and emotional issues throughout a patient's life and provide comprehensive, research backed treatments to address them. Considered by the American Psychological Association (APA) as a psychological "specialty in breadth", clinical psychology draws from disciplines within and outside of the field of psychology. In fact, it is marked by its comprehensive approach and scope. It is a broad field that applies to people of all ages and backgrounds.ii
Clinical psychology degree programs involve the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of mental, emotional and behavioral disorders.i These issues could be short term adjustment problems or more severe psychopathic disorders. Research also plays an important role. This might be into science, knowledge and methods relevant to areas distinct to the field.ii
Choosing Between Graduate Programs in Clinical Psychology
There are a few factors to keep in mind when deciding between the best clinical psychology graduate programs for you. Before beginning your search, you may want to consider the below.
- Your career goals
- Whether you are more interested in academic research or clinical practice
- Location and program format
Your preferred career outcome is important as psychology is a regulated field and licensing laws vary by state and the type of position.i While no degree or career is guaranteed, you may wish to research these requirements to find a program to fill your needs.
This often goes hand in hand with whether you prefer research to practice. Clinical psychology programs can take either path, depending on degree type and program focus. Read program curricula and follow up with schools directly to find a perfect match for you.
Most clinical psychologists need a doctorate in psychology, an internship, at least 1 to 2 years of supervised professional experience, and to pass the Examination for Professional Practice in Psychologyi

Additional Requirements
Students might be able to select a focus within clinical psychology
Potentially: prerequisites, thesis, exam, specialization, residency
Potentially: dissertation, exam, specialization, residency
Clinical Psychology schools primarily offer masters and doctoral degrees, though graduate certificates may also be available. While each may cover relevant topics in clinical psychology, the requirements, depth of study and goals may vary.
For example, some masters clinical psychology programs require applicants to have earned a Bachelor of Psychology degree, while others may be suitable for students from diverse backgrounds. These students however may be required to take prerequisite courses before enrollment. This may include introductory psychology, experimental psych and statistics.i
Similarly, certain clinical psychology PhD programs accept applicants with a bachelors degree and a major in psychology. Others may require students to have a masters degree.i
Make sure to find out specific details directly from clinical psychology programs that interest you.
Clinical Psychology Masters Programs
Clinical Psychology Masters Programs may offer Master of Arts (MA) or Master of Science (MS) degrees with thesis or non-thesis options. Both programs typically involve a combination of coursework, field work and research.
Some learners use a Clinical Psychology masters degree as a platform to continued education. Others may seek potential career paths other than licensed clinical psychologists.i Usually the thesis option is for those who are planning to earn a doctorate degree. The non-thesis option, on the other hand, could be a great choice for students interested in working in the following careers.
- Industrial-organizational psychologistsi
- Psychological assistant under the supervision of a doctoral psychologisti
- Mental health counselors (requires post degree supervised clinical work and state licensure)iii
- Marriage and family therapists (requires post degree supervised clinical work and state licensure)iii
Typically a Masters in Clinical Psychology degree may be earned with two years of full time study. Applicants often have a bachelor's degree in psychology, or have taken classes in psychology and statistics. Many schools also request GRE and GPA scores, letters of recommendation and related clinical experience.
However, Clinical Psychology Masters programs each have different requirements and goals. Contact schools directly to learn more.
Clinical Psychology Doctoral Programs
Clinical Psychology Doctoral Programs may be offered as research-oriented Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) or clinical practice-oriented Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) in Clinical Psychology degrees. These differences may be reflected in both the program curriculum and approach to course materials
Aside from a doctorate degree, prospective practicing psychologists must have pre-or post-doctoral supervised experience and internship before they can qualify for state licensure.i Therefore, some programs are designed to help meet this requirement and include practicums and internships.
Clinical Psychology PhD programs may also include a research and dissertation component. Every school is different.
Once all the educational and state criteria for licensure have been met, graduates might pursue the following careers as practicing clinical psychologists.
- Forensic Psychologistsv
- Pediatric Psychologistsv
- Health Psychologistsi
- Neuropsychologistsi
What Might I Study in Clinical Psychology Graduate Programs?
At the masters level, you might expect more variance in curriculum than at the doctoral level. This is because the APA accredits clinical psychology graduate programs at the doctoral and postdoctoral level and therefore articulates some course guidelines.ii
That said, a clinical psychology major might expect to study some of a wide range of the following topics.
- Clinical assessment
- Personality appraisal
- Psychopathology (suicide, violence)
- Clinical psychopharmacology
- Behavior modification
- Therapeutic intervention techniques
- Patient interviewing

Programs vary.
On-Campus or Online Clinical Psychology Programs?
Accredited institutions may offer residential (campus), distance-learning (online) and partially online (hybrid) clinical psychology graduate programs. Each has their own potential benefits.
On campus programs may be great for those who prefer to learn in a classroom with other students. This may be especially beneficial in clinical psychology programs, as it is a field based heavily on interpersonal interactions.
Clinical psychology schools may make it easier to participate in simulations and practice various techniques. Plus students may have access to labs for research, libraries and other support services.
Online learning, on the other hand, could provide unparalleled flexibilty. Courses might be accessed when and where is easiest for you, making it a great option for busy adult learners. Some online clinical psychology programs even integrate on campus benefits like digital databases and interactive message boards and chat rooms.
It is important to note, that while coursework may be completely online, some of these programs may require students to perform internships or research in a nearby location. Often clinical psychology schools will either arrange or support students in finding these opportunities. Every school is different, so follow up to learn more.
Hybrid programs may provide a combination of both of the above options, allowing students to access the best of both worlds. Some hybrid programs allow students to mix online and campus classes. Others may rely heavily on online learning, with students visiting campuses for short intensives each semester. Look for the program format that fits your learning style and needs.
Accreditation For Clinical Psychology Graduate Programs
Accreditation for clinical psychology programs is worth understanding. That's because it not only may help you judge the quality of a program, but could be a requirement for pursuing licensure or qualifying for federal loans.
In the United States, accreditation occurs at the institutional and programmatic level. For psychology programs, the APA is recognized by the U.S. Department of Education and the Council for Higher Education Accreditation as the national authority on professional education and training in psychology.vi Their scope is doctoral graduate programs, internship programs, and postdoctoral residency programs.
That said, universities and psychology schools offering masters programs in clinical psychology tend to be regionally accredited. As with anything, stay informed and in tune with your academic and career requirements.

Idaho Gymnast To Be Honored
BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Idaho's two-time Olympic gold medalist cyclist Kristin Armstrong is due to be honored by the state Legislature. Boise Rep.

A conflict between two drivers cutting each other off on the highway ended with one man striking the other in the shoulder with a small sledgehammer. In other news, people are terrible.
The episode started Tuesday in Washington State when the driver of a minivan cut off a Nissan driver. Mr. Nissan responded by pulling ahead of Mr. Minivan and slamming on the brakes. They pulled over to settle things and it ended with Mr. Minivan dishing out the aforementioned sledgehammer-related violence on Mr. Nissan's shoulder.
The police cited Mr. Nissan for negligent driving and arrested Mr. Minivan for assault.

Duplo, or Lego for morons, as it was called in 15th century Frogland (France), is the largest growing resource on the planet. Instead of its numbers being decreased, production of this fine product has sky rocketed in the last 5 minutes. Duplo was invented by John. A. Onomatopoeia as a way to protect his home from the Nazi invasions of Lego-Land. Unlike pitiful Lego, Duplo is twice as big and so, as according to Benson's Theory of Sizeitivity, stronger and better.
Duplo is very colourful and so is more valuable then its colour-blind counterpart: Whatslo. Duplo is actually the currency of Russia and Mars and is valued at almost 1c to the Mexican peso! Because of this Russia and Mars is a prosperous place full of those who are Nazis and those who surrender to them. Recently Duplo has come under criticism in the majority of the Middle East. They claim it is a Zionist ploy to convert the world into Judaism and make the world their newest conquest. This, however, is only half true.
Duplo;Lego for autistic kids
Good for Kids?[edit]
Duplo is also proven to be Evil and made of recycled poop!
Nazi-Duplo History[edit]
Near the end of WW2 the Nazis had begun plans to make a Robot dog out of Duplo. Unfortunately, Hitler wasn't able to get his allowance in time to buy the parts and he lost the war.
In closing Duplo is crap.

feminist wire | daily newsbriefs
People around the world are calling for justice for a 16-year-old Kenyan girl who was brutally beaten, gang-raped, and thrown into a 20-foot latrine by six men in June.
The girl, whom media outlets are calling "Liz," was walking home from her grandfather's funeral in Kenya's northwestern county of Busia when the men attacked her. The attack caused severe spinal cord injuries and fistula, leaving her reliant on a wheelchair to get around and unable to control her bowels.
Liz was found crawling out of the latrine and crying for help by villagers nearby. She knew some of the attackers, so she gave the people helping her their names. They then chased three of the men down and took them to the local police station. There, police ordered the men to to cut grass as their only punishment; the men were then let go--even though under Kenya's Sexual Offences Act they should receive no less than 15 years in prison. In addition, Liz's mother was told to clean her off, destroying potential forensic evidence.
In a statement, the Kenya Coalition on Violence Against Women called the situation "yet another example of blatant impunity and repeated noncompliance by the police and other government authorities. Rape and other gender crimes have consistently been treated as lesser crimes--this is unacceptable."
The attack came to the world's attention thanks to Jared Momanyi, the director of a Kenyan clinic that specializes in treating victims of sexual violence. He was so outraged when Liz's case was referred to him that he called a reporter at the Daily Nation in Nairobi. He said of this case, "This was an attempted murder and it's not an isolated case; it's one among many."
Since then, 4,000 pounds has been raised to pay for an operation to repair Liz's internal injuries, and the global campaigning network Avaaz launched an online petition calling for immediate arrest and prosecution of the rapists and disciplinary action for the police officers. It currently has over 1,270,000 signatures, and that number grows every second. The director of public prosecutions in Kenya has ordered the national police to investigate why the local force did not investigate the rape, but so far there have been no updates.
"My wish is to see justice done," Liz said.

Dental treatments, both regular and elective, can add up quickly in terms of costs. Some people are lucky enough to have dental insurance which will cover basic treatments and will generally offer as much as $1500 a year for regular dental care. Yet, there are as many as fifty percent of Americans that have no dental insurance whatsoever.
While dental care can be extraordinarily expensive for some people, there are really affordable options that people can turn to when in need of affordable dental care. One option available to people is getting treatment from dental school students at an accredited school: the treatments are often very affordable and sometimes free.
People with low income can get affordable dental care from students at any number of dental schools. Care can include treatments involving regular checkups and cleanings, fillings, and other necessary dental procedures. These dental treatments are very safe because the students are monitored by doctors and professional dentists as they work.
Is a Treatment at Dental School Safe?
The reason that schools allow students to work on dental patients is that the student can gain the much needed hands on experience they need in order to become qualified dentists. During any dental procedures the professors at the school work on patients with the students to ensure accurate and safe dental care.
Affordable Dental Treatment Option for Low-Income
Free and affordable dental treatments are definitely a great option for low income families. When you decide to get a dental treatment from any dental school you will need to find out what dental procedures are offered at no cost and if there are any fees associated with certain procedures offered.
Not all schools have the same fees and/or free offerings, so you will need to know in advance what type of free dental treatment you can avail yourself of; you may have to make an appointment at two different dental schools so that all of your dental procedures are free.
In terms of making an appointment for free dental treatment, the earlier that you do so, the better off you will be. Dental schools offering affordable dental alternatives often have very few available openings since so many patients take advantage of this super affordable dental treatment alternative. You will need to get in contact with the dental clinic offered by the dental school to find out about their hours of operation.
When seeking a qualified school in your area where you can get free or affordable dental treatments, you can check your local yellow pages, you can check on the Internet, or you can find out more from the dental association or dental society of the state in which you reside.
You can also get a full list of dental schools from the American Dental Association or WorlDental.org (look below). If you are seeking regular, low cost hygiene treatments, you can sometimes get affordable dental treatments from a dental hygiene school; you can learn more about hygiene schools in your area by contacting the National Oral Health Information Clearing House or the Dental Hygienists' Association.

Numerous studies have shown that people who exercise with a friend have greater, long-term success when it comes to losing weight and keeping it off. A partner holds you accountable making you less likely to cancel that workout session, which is a large part of the battle in the beginning.
As many benefits as there are to having a workout partner, there are things to remember if you choose to have an exercise buddy.
It's about you. Don't rely on your partner for your own success. If your partner calls you at the last minute and has to work late, you go to the gym as scheduled.
It's not social hour. Your working muscle group should burn to the point that you have to focus on what you are doing. You shouldn't be talking in the midst of exertion, and you shouldn't let your partner distract you while they rest.
It's not therapy. You should leave your workouts feeling energized and fabulous, not stressed and depressed. It could be time to reassess the partnership if you find yourself listening to their problems all the time.
You certainly don't have to perform exercises made for two people. If you prefer, you can simply meet a friend for a walk around the park or take a class together. With that said, buddy exercises can help shake up your routine.
Double twist
Stand back-to-back with your partner, with one person holding the stability ball in front of their chest.
The person holding the stability ball twists to the left, and the partner twists to the right, meeting halfway.
The partner takes the ball, and twists to meet their buddy on the other side, while keeping the knees and toes facing the front.
Note: When twisting, remember the twist is for your trunk, not your legs/knees.
The first time you perform this exercise, go slow so you understand the correct form. Once you have it, go as fast as you and your partner can go.
Plank with hand tap
Both people start in plank position so you are facing each other with two arm lengths separating one from the other.
Take your right arm off of the ground and extend forward while your partner does the same. Be sure your body stays flat in plank position.
Tap your partner's hand, and return the arm to the ground.
Repeat with your alternate arm and continue the exercise alternating arms.
Less-experienced planksters can perform the exercise in a half plank with your knees on the ground.
BOSU ball toss
Each person stands on their BOSU. Face your partner and be far enough apart to comfortably toss a ball back and forth.
One person holds the medicine ball, and tosses it to their partner.
Their partner then tosses it back to them and so on.
Note: practice the ball toss before you stand on the BOSU to determine a comfortable distance. Beginners can stand on the ball side of the BOSU. More advanced stand with the ball side facing downward.

US supplier pulls Daniella mangoes amid Salmonella outbreak investigation
California produce distributor Splendid Products yesterday recalled certain lots of Daniella mangoes because they may be contaminated with Salmonella, according to a notice posted by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).The mangoes that are subject to the recall carry the Daniella label and have the following price look-up (PLU) numbers on the stickers: 3114, 4051, 4584, and 4959. The company said the mangoes were sold at retail stores throughout the United States between Jul 12 and Aug 29. It added that mangoes have been liked to recent salmonellosis cases in Canada and may be linked to infections in California and perhaps other states. The recall is being issued out of an abundance of caution, Splendid Products said, adding that it pulled the products after consulting with the FDA and the California Department of Public Health (CDPH).
Aug 29 Splendid Products recall notice
In a separate announcement yesterday, California officials warned the public not to eat Daniella-brand mangoes due to possible Salmonella contamination. It said the recalled mangoes were packed in Mexico and distributed by Splendid Products, based in Burlingame, Calif. Though the mangoes are no longer being sold, the CDPH said in its statement the consumers may still have them in their homes. It added that the preliminary investigation suggests that mango consumption is the likely cause of a Salmonella Braenderup outbreak that has sickened 80 people in California, and as many as 103 people in 16 states. The US outbreak strain genetically matches the strain that sickened people in a Canadian outbreak that has also been linked to Daniella mangoes.
Aug 29 CDPH statement
In a further related development, Spokane Produce, Inc., yesterday recalled a small lot of its pineapple-mango pico de gallo sauce because it includes Daniella mangoes. The salsa was distributed to 11 inland supermarkets in Washington, Idaho, and Montana.

Two groups sue to spur implementation of food safety law
Two health and environmental organizations have sued the federal government over what they describe as its failure to implement the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act, Reuters reported yesterday. The law was enacted in January 2011 to bolster disease-prevention efforts at many points along the food chain. The suit was filed by the Center for Food Safety and the Center for Environmental Health, both described as nonprofit advocacy groups, in US District Court for the Northern District of California. The FDA proposed rules to implement the new law late in 2011, but they have remained at the White House Office of Management and Budget since then, according to Reuters. The two plaintiffs contend that the FDA has missed hundreds of deadlines specified in the law, including seven that pertain to major food safety regulations, the story said. "They haven't done what is required to actually begin the process of getting this new food safety law in place," Andrew Kimbrell, executive director of the Center for Food Safety, told Reuters. The FDA had no immediate comment on the lawsuit, the story said.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
Palestinian Arabs visiting Israel's Yad Vashem Holocaust museum as part of a program called "Combatants for Peace" said it was a gross error to compare the current Israeli-Palestinian conflict with what the Nazis did to the Jews.
Many Palestinian propagandists and their apologists abroad like to claim that Israel's so-called "occupation" of Judea and Samaria is a new holocaust, and that the Jews, of all people, should refrain from such behavior.
One of the Arabs visiting Yad Vashem said such comparisons are made out of angry ignorance. He and other Arab participants said they can now more clearly understand why Israel bears scars and is so focused on the security of its people.
"When you look at the background of the Jewish nation, we can try to understand your anxiety and fears. A nation that went through something like this cannot live without scars," Ahmed al-Jaafari told Israel's Ynet news portal. "I don't agree with the comparison between the Holocaust and the situation in the territories, and people who make this comparison make it out of pain and anger."
Another Arab who lost a daughter in the current conflict said it was a grave mistake and a disservice to the "Palestinian cause" to make comparisons with the Holocaust, which was a tragedy on an entirely different level.
Such statements will no doubt anger many Palestinians and be ignored by media outlets and organizations biased against the Jewish state. But most Israelis would agree that until these historical backgrounds are acknowledged and understood, there is no basis for genuine dialogue, reconciliation and coexistence.

Tiger Woods just concluded one of the worst performances of his professional career -- and was officially eliminated from the Quail Hollow Championship after missing the cut by a mile.
Just to put this in perspective, Tiger went from 1997 to 2005 without missing one single cut in any of the tournaments he played in ... and in 2007, Tiger WON the Quail Hollow tourney.
So the big question -- will Tiger actually win a tournament this year? Discuss.

Tax collectors and sinners are entering the kingdom of God before you
The Gospel for Sunday, September 28, 2008
Twenty-sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Matthew: 21:28-32
It is precisely because sin exists in the world, which "God so loves . . . that he gave his only Son, that God who 'is love' cannot reveal himself otherwise than as mercy. This corresponds not only to the most profound truth of that love which God is, but also to the whole interior truth of man and of the world which is man's temporary homeland.
Mercy in itself, as a perfection of the infinite God, is also infinite. Also infinite therefore and inexhaustible is the Father's readiness to receive the prodigal children who return to his home. Infinite are the readiness and power of forgiveness which flow continually from the marvelous value of the sacrifice of the Son. No human sin can prevail over this power or even limit it. On the part of man only a lack of good will can limit it, a lack of readiness to be converted and to repent, in other words persistence in obstinacy, opposing grace and truth, especially in the face of the witness of the cross and resurrection of Christ.
Therefore, the church professes and proclaims conversion. Conversion to God always consists in discovering his mercy, that is, in discovering that love which is patient and kind as only the Creator and Father can be; the love to which the "God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ" is faithful to the uttermost consequences in the history of his covenant with man: even to the cross and to the death and resurrection of the Son. Conversion to God is always the fruit of the "rediscovery" of this Father, who is rich in mercy.
Authentic knowledge of the God of mercy, the God of tender love, is a constant and inexhaustible source of conversion, not only as a momentary interior act but also as a permanent attitude, as a state of mind. Those who come to know God in this way, who "see" him in this way, can live only in a state of being continually converted to him. They live, therefore, in statu conversionis; and it is this state of conversion which marks out the most profound element of the pilgrimage of every man and woman on earth in statu viatoris. ...
...The church proclaims the truth of God's mercy revealed in the crucified and risen Christ, and she professes it in various ways. Furthermore, she seeks to practice mercy toward people through people, and she sees in this an indispensable condition for solicitude for a better and "more human" world, today and tomorrow.
However, at no time and in no historical period-especially at a moment as critical as our own-can the church forget the prayer that is a cry for the mercy of God amid the many forms of evil which weigh upon humanity and threaten it. Precisely this is the fundamental right and duty of the church in Christ Jesus, her right and duty toward God and toward humanity. The more the human conscience succumbs to secularization, loses its sense of the very meaning of the word "mercy," moves away from God and distances itself from the mystery of mercy, the more the church has the right and the duty to appeal to the God of mercy, with loud cries.
...Let us offer up our petitions, directed by the faith, by the hope and by the charity which Christ has planted in our hearts. This attitude is likewise love of God, whom modern man has sometimes separated far from himself, made extraneous to himself, proclaiming in various ways that God is "superfluous." This is, therefore, love of God, the insulting rejection of whom by modern man we feel profoundly, and we are ready to cry out with Christ on the cross: "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do."
At the same time it is love of people, of all men and women without any exception or division: without difference of race, culture, language or world outlook, without distinction between friends and enemies. This is love for people—it desires every true good for each individual and for every human community, every family, every nation, every social group, for young people, adults, parents, the elderly—a love for everyone without exception. This is love, or rather an anxious solicitude to ensure for each individual every true good and to remove and drive away every sort of evil….
...In the name of Jesus Christ crucified and risen, in the spirit of his messianic mission, enduring in the history of humanity, we raise our voices and pray that the love which is in the Father may once again be revealed at this stage of history, and that, through the work of the Son and Holy Spirit, it may be shown to be present in our modern world and to be more powerful than evil: more powerful than sin and death. We pray for this through the intercession of her who does not cease to proclaim "mercy . . . from generation to generation," and also through the intercession of those for whom there have been completely fulfilled the words of the Sermon on the Mount: "Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy."
In continuing the great task of implementing the Second Vatican Council, in which we can rightly see a new phase of the self-realization of the church—in keeping with the epoch in which it has been our destiny to live—the church herself must be constantly guided by the full consciousness that in this work it is not permissible for her, for any reason, to withdraw into herself. The reason for her existence is, in fact, to reveal God, that Father who allows us to "see" him in Christ. No matter how strong the resistance of human history may be, no matter how marked the diversity of contemporary civilization, no matter how great the denial of God in the human world, so much the greater must be the Church's closeness to that mystery which, hidden for centuries in God, was then truly shared with man, in time, through Jesus Christ.
Excerpted from John Paul II's DIVES IN MISERICORDIA (On the Mercy of God) to the Bishops, Priests, and Faithful of the entire Catholic Church concerning the Divine Mercy, 30 November 1980.

To acknowledge our unworthiness and sinfulness before God, brings us Forgiveness from His bountiful Ocean of Mercy! It's when we become lax or too confident in our spiritual lives,( like the Pharisee who says, " I thank you Lord for i am not like the tax collectors who sins…" ), that we become more vulnerable to occasions of sin. Humility in a truly repentant sinner is the key to God's Mercy and Forgiveness, thereby making us more cautious and strong to avoid every occasions of sin. God bless us!!!

British film director Bryan Forbes, whose work includes the original 1970s horror classic The Stepford Wives, has died at age 86 after a long illness, a family spokesman said Wednesday. Matthew D'Ancona said Forbes died surrounded by his family at his home in Surrey.
Forbes was born John Theobald Clarke in 1926 in London. He began his film career as an actor, playing a number of supporting roles in British films in the 1940s and 1950s, but he soon found more success in screenwriting, and later directing.
He made his debut as director in Whistle Down the Wind, the 1961 movie about children who come across an escaped convict and mistake him for Jesus. Forbes went on to make films such as King Rat, a tale of survival in a prisoner-of-war camp, and The Stepford Wives, a thriller about sinisterly perfect suburban housewives.
He was screenwriter for Chaplin, the 1992 biopic of Charlie Chaplin starring Robert Downey Jr., and also wrote several novels. His latest book, The Soldier's Story, was published last year.
Forbes was made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 2004 for services to the arts.
He is survived by his wife, the actress Nanette Newman, and two daughters.

Today, we're beyond excited to announce the winners of our Build-A-Business Competition! Over 3,000 entrepreneurs created new online stores that sold over $12 million in products during the eight month competition period. The grand prize is $100,000 cash, along with VIP trips to New York City and San Francisco to meet with Timothy Ferriss, Seth Godin, and Gary Vaynerchuk for high-level business and marketing advice to further grow their business. Without further adieu, Gary Vaynerchuk is going to announce the winner:
In addition to the grand prize, we're awarding a total of $150,000 cash and $60,000 in Google AdWords credits to our industry and Canadian winners. Here is a visual overview of the competition. You can click on the image to view it in full-screen.
We couldn't be happier with the success of all the ecommerce stores competing. We're going to be publishing in-depth articles on all winners within the coming weeks, but for now here's the leaderboard with some background information and description of their product(s):
Coffee Joulies
Dave Jackson and Dave Petrillo (commonly referred to as 'The Daves') are two mechanical engineers from New Jersey. They went on Kickstarter to crowd-source their funding of Coffee Joulies with a goal of $9,500. They ended up raising $306,944 with 4,818 backers. They're one of Kickstarters most successful projects, and they're also one of Shopify's fastest growing online stores. Coffee Joulies are polished stainless steel beans that regulate the temperature of coffee.
Tattly was created by Tina Roth Eisenberg (aka swissmiss) out of her frustrations toward ugly rub-on tattoos. As Tina says, "Life is too short to drink bad wine and wear ugly temporary tattoos, right?" And so Tattly was born: A temporary tattoo online store for design-minded kids and kids-at-heart. Tattly's "tattoo artists" are some of the best designers in the world: Jason Santa Maria, Julia Rothman, Jessica Hische, Frank Chimero, Mark Johns, and many more.
Opena Case
Rob Ward and Chris Peters solved a dilema of epic proportions; having a cold beer but no way of opening it. These two Australians asked themselves, "what's the one thing people have on them at all times?" The answer? Your cell phone. Solution? A sturdy iPhone case beer bottle opener. Confirmation that their idea was a hit came as soon as they listed Opena on Kickstarter. Opena garnered 50% of its target funding in the first week. Although sales for Opena Case are skyrocketing, the dynamic duo isn't resting on their laurels just yet - they've already developed a new product, the Quadlock Case, which allows you to mount your iPhone anywhere you like.
Sophie Kovic was working as a projectionist at a small movie theatre last year. Then she read Timothy Ferriss' book "The 4-Hour Workweek." She followed his step-by-step instructions on how to create a successful online business (with a focus on Google AdWords) and built FlockStocks - a feather hair extension online store that's selling all around the world.
Jesse Phillips was disillusioned with his computer science degree and became determined to save himself from working in a cubicle for the rest of his life. He semi-quit his day job and developed a gorgeous whole year calendar that is big (27" x 39"), and is designed to perfection. NeuYear is printed on premium quality, cream colored, uncoated card stock, and has a beautiful vellum finish. Design is important when it comes to calendars, because as Scott Belsky writes,"the design of your productivity tools will affect how eager you are to use them. Attraction breeds commitment."
My Footy Boots
Brad Jorgensen used to teach Canadians the intricacies of "Australian rules football" for six years. When he returned to Australia he couldn't believe the price difference in footy boots (soccer cleats) between North America and Australia. He decided to bridge the gap in prices, he found good suppliers, then opened an online store offering fair prices. He has since expanded his offering to include soccer boots, running shoes, and rugby cleats.
Simply Hops
Small batch beer makers often have difficulty finding a variety of quality hops available for purchase in small quantities. Especially if they want their hops delivered the next day. Simply Hops is an online store that was created to cater to craft beer brewers that don't want to make expensive bulk purchases.
Clearpath Robotics (TurtleBot)
Remember thinking as a kid that by the time we're adults we would all have our own personal robots? Well, Matthew Randall and four other mechanical engineers from the University of Waterloo decided to do something about that by creating TurtleBot. This fully functional and customizable robot is built on an open-source framework and is developed with the best low-cost hardware. For example, the 3D sensor is actually a Microsoft X-Box Kinect.

Wow congratulations Coffee Joulies. I'm more of a tea drinker but by the sounds of it our product would work for that too.
$500,000 is quite the carrot to dangle in front of entrepreneurs, so i'm not surprised over 3,000 people signed up for this.
Well done Shopify.

WOW! This contest is exactly the sort of thing this country (indeed, EVERY nation) really needs. Will there be a repeat, and if so, when? I started a service business with my 15 year old son when he said no one is hiring kids under 16 in our area. This has helped him realize that you can make your own job regaardless of your circumstances. But to develop a product business together and market it on Shopify, THAT would be really something. Please put me on your mailing list should you do a contest like this again. Thank You!
Keep Stepping,
