April 27, 2009
LOS ANGELES -- UCLA Anderson School of Management today announced that Ariella Herman, Ph.D., Research Director of the UCLA/Johnson & Johnson Health Care Institute (HCI), will be awarded the 2009 Health Literacy Award by The Institute for Health Advancement (IHA). The award, which recognizes Dr. Herman's efforts to advance health literacy in America, will be presented at a luncheon during IHA's 8th annual Health Literacy Conference, "Health Literacy: Bridging Research and Practice," on May 7, 2009 at the Hyatt Regency in Irvine, California.
Dr. Herman's research on health literacy education serves as the backbone for the UCLA/Johnson & Johnson Health Care Institute's successful model of providing low-literacy healthcare training to treat common childhood ailments at home. The HCI program has proven to reduce emergency room and doctor/clinic visits while decreasing missed school and workdays--saving Medicaid millions of dollars annually in the United States.
"This well-deserved recognition comes at a time when we are struggling as a nation to establish effective methods of improving healthcare knowledge and controlling costs," said Alfred Osborne, senior associate dean at UCLA Anderson School of Management. "Herman's message is powerful in its simplicity -- provide families with the appropriate tools to empower them in their health decision making, and the net benefits will follow -- not just for common childhood ailments but also for preventable chronic diseases."
Since its launch in 2001, HCI has reached approximately 27,000 families nationwide through its nearly 120 partnering Head Start agencies. In February of this year, the Missouri Head Start agency received a $1.1 million grant from the U.S. Office of Head Start to further expand its healthcare literacy program, called I Can Help My Child to Stay Healthy: Innovations in Head Start Health Literacy Training, or "I CAN." The success of HCI's program has attracted the attention of state governments - including New Mexico and Washington- interested in supporting families with low literacy health training and containing ER/clinic costs.
"Our mission is to enable family-focused organizations to increase health literacy of parents through training that gives them the knowledge, confidence and resources to care for their children at home," said Ariella Herman. "I am honored to receive this award, and hope that our program will provide the access and affordability to better health care for millions of families across the United States."
About the UCLA/Johnson & Johnson Health Care Institute
The UCLA/Johnson & Johnson Health Care Institute was inspired by Head Start Directors who were graduates of the Head Start-Johnson & Johnson Management Fellows Program, an annual training program held at the UCLA Anderson School of Management. Founded in 1991, it is the only executive management program of its kind. In 2000, a survey of Head Start-Johnson & Johnson Fellows from around the U.S. revealed a shared concern: parents simply lacked the time and basic health care knowledge to become better informed about their children's health. From a pilot program in 2001, the Health Care Institute has reached nearly 27,000 Head Start families nationwide, cooperating with nearly 120 Head Start agencies.
The Institute for Healthcare Advancement (IHA) is a not-for-profit, 501(c)(3) healthcare organization dedicated to empowering people to better health. IHA has been active in health literacy for the past 10 years, sponsoring this conference and writing and publishing the "What To Do For Health" self-help health book series. All 5 titles in the series are written at a 3rd- to 5th-grade reading level, and each title is available in English or Spanish (some titles also available in Vietnamese, Chinese, and Korean). For more information about IHA, its easy-to-read books, and innovations and activities in health literacy and other areas, visit the website, www.iha4health.org or call 800 434-4633.

Spectators basked in sunshine today as London welcomed 2013 with a New Year's Day parade that celebrated the city's Olympics glory.
Organisers said more than 500,000 people had enjoyed the fair weather as floats, cheerleaders and brass bands marched through the centre of the capital.
The stars of the show were the Olympic volunteers who welcomed the world to London in the summer and helped make the Games such a success.
Crowds were entertained by the Pandemonium Drummers, whose performance was one of the Olympics opening ceremony's highlights, and the Games Maker Choir.
Event organiser Bob Bone told Sky News: "We thought it was a fitting thing to ask them (the Games Makers) to come into our parade so that we could say thank you to them.
"But also we are looking forward as well as backward, because I think the Games Makers have shown that there's a great volunteering spirit in this country.
"There are lots of things that people can carry on doing to carry that spirit of the Games Makers forward into 2013 and beyond."
A worldwide television audience watched as floats representing London's boroughs competed with each other to bring festive cheer to the streets.
The parade made its way past some of the capital's best-known landmarks, including Piccadilly Circus, Trafalgar Square and Parliament.
Earlier in the day, 200 clean-up staff had cleared around 160 tonnes of rubbish from the streets of Westminster following the capital's New Year's Eve party.

Streetwear brand 10.Deep has teamed up with Vladimir Milivojevich aka Boogie to work on a limited edition capsule collection. The Serbian-born artist is widely acclaimed for his gritty street photography, which led him to some of the darkest corners of Sao Paulo, Istanbul and New York City. Back in 2011 while staying on vacation on Jamaica, Boogie took the opportunity to explore the island's biggest city, Kingston, and managed to snap some highly compelling pictures that found their way onto a small run of T-shirts. The entire collection is now available at select 10.Deep retailers and online. You can see the full lookbook here.
On the occasion of this unique collaboration, we shot Boogie some questions to learn more about his amazing work. Enjoy the full interview after the jump.
What's the longest you've been separated from your camera?
For the past 20 years or so I haven't left the house without a camera … taking photos is what I do, and you never know when the right shot will appear. So you have to be ready at all times.
If you wouldn't have won the United States green card lottery back in '97 where do you think you'd be right now?
Dead or in prison. Haha, just kidding, probably not that drastic. It's hard to say, but I would've still been doing something related to photography. I would probably look 10 years older if I hadn't gone to the States. I think in the U.S. you constantly reinvent yourself, you start from scratch, and I think that keeps you young. I think the moment you know that life won't surprise you anymore, you die.
How has shooting in color changed your perspective as a photographer?
At some point I just started seeing the world in color. But it goes back and forth, I constantly switch between B&W and color film photography. I try not to limit myself, I just shoot whatever I feel like. Lately I've also added the wet plate collodion process to the mix.
What was your first camera?
My first useful camera was an Olympus 35mm SLR camera that my dad gave me. I guess I got the photo bug from him.
What type of camera have you been shooting with most recently?
I have a bunch of cameras, it all depends on the assignment. But for day-to-day walking around I use a Leica.
How were the images chosen for the 10.Deep collaborative capsule collection?
I emailed some of my favorite images from Kingston to Scot Sasso, and he picked the ones that worked the best.
Do you prefer shooting in the day, or during the night?
It doesn't matter, good shots are everywhere at all times.
What's the best advice you've ever been given in regards to photography?
I think the best advice is to not listen to anyone's advice; to just follow your heart.
How has being a father influenced your work?
It changed me as a person a lot, and for the better I think. And I think if you change as a person, if you evolve, your work has to evolve too.
What's your opinion on Instagram's new video feature?
Man, I'm not on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter or any of that stuff. I didn't even know the video feature existed.

German Zimtsterne (cinnamon almond cookies)
I always wanted to make these, and finally got the guts — oh boy, I wasn't really prepared for the amount of nitty-gritty with making these. I started with original German recipe that called for 500g of almonds, but that ended up being 2 full baking sheets and lots of sneaky snacking between steps ;-) But the result is good, and these cookies are worth the effort.
Tuna paste bento
Tuna paste is ridiculously easy to prepare and makes a great no cooking bento, cutting the preparation time to less than 20 minutes, including rice cooking time! Now, that's what I would call cooking on the go! You can also use the tuna paste for a great tasting onigiri or sushi.
Marinated beef and pasta bento
Bento is not only rice, but also other ingredients, like... pasta. This recipe came to life when I had some uncooked beef left-overs and just wondered what to do with them. Cooking them as a part of bento was a great idea!
Pineapple teriyaki curry with chicken
Give yourself an oriental, savory feast with this simple, yet very spectacular dish. Simple, tasty, and doesn't require lots of ingredients, which is a perfect idea for a nice, cozy evening.
Deluxe bento idea
This idea mixes the basic sausage bento idea with previously mentioned teriyaki smoked salmon don for a more premium feel of the bento, without adding any more trouble while making the bento.

What if you knew you were going to die today, due to circumstances far worse than you'd ever imagined? Would you rage at the heavens or scoff at the idea of God? Would you humble yourself in prayer and thank God for the time you had on the planet or resign yourself to passing peacefully without worrying whether there was an afterlife?
And when it came down to it — if you could face down the person or creature that was going to bring about your demise — would you steel yourself one last time to fight it out? Or would you just let death take you since it's coming anyway?
These are the profound and unsettling questions at the core of the stunning new film "The Grey," in which Liam Neeson puts a huge spin on the action-hero persona he suddenly adopted with the smash success of the 2009 film "Taken." Having followed that film up with another hit action flick "Unknown," which was sloppily frayed with loose plot threads, Neeson this time plays an Arctic oil-drill worker named Ottway who leads a group of five men against freezing winds, blinding blizzards and vicious wolf packs as they seek salvation after surviving a plane crash.
The irony here is that Ottway earlier wanted to die, pointing a shotgun at his throat before backing away from the precipice of despair. But he's carrying a note from his wife and memories of happier times together, and so decides to wrestle with the concept of hope and whether he can find happiness without her.
Thrust among other hard-bitten men, who know each other only by their last names, if at all, and on a flight out of the wilderness back to homes in normal towns and cities, it appears he's headed back to a sad but civilized existence. He wants nothing to do with the kind of men he works with — brutes who drink and brawl away their nights to make up for the harsh drudgery of their days. But once their plane goes down, he and four other survivors are utterly dependent on each other.
Thus begins a harrowing tale in which things start out bleak and at first seem to only grow bleaker. Co-writer/director Joe Carnahan serves it all up with incredibly crisp cinematography by Masanobu Takayanagi and impeccable sound design that makes the movie feel like it has 3-D sound and the wolves are in the audience.
Yet, just as it seems the film might take the easy way out and offer one empty thrill after another, Carnahan and co-writer Ian Mackenzie Jeffers — whose short story "Ghost Walker" the film is based upon — start exploring the most fundamental questions of life and death in between the bursts of action. One man in the group believes they survived the plane crash for a reason and is confident God has a plan, while another man mocks his faith. Ottway tries to be respectful but says he's focused on what's "real": biting cold air, freezing water and snow all around them. And yet, they start to get signs of a bigger picture.
Aside from Neeson and veteran actor Dermot Mulroney, the rest of the cast is composed of mostly unknowns, which works to draw the audience into caring about them as believable people rather than feeling distanced by the fact they're played by movie stars. As they wrestle with their consciences, will power and the universe in addition to wild animals and outrageous weather, it seems that every audience member will find plenty of questions about the gray areas surrounding life and death themselves.

Mitt Romney, man of constant sorrow
Mitt Romney has become the 2012 election's man of constant sorrow.
Since the beginning of the summer, the GOP presidential nominee has suffered from a seemingly endless stream of missteps and distractions, ranging from personal screw-ups to staffing flubs, to the supernatural hindrance of a hurricane during the Republican National Convention.
Story Continued Below
A video published Monday evening by the liberal magazine Mother Jones, showing Romney disparaging Obama supporters in a private fundraiser as people who consider themselves "victims" and "entitled" to government handouts, is only the latest unwanted disruption.
( Also on POLITICO: Video puts Romney on his back foot)
There was Romney's botched foreign trip in July, when he drew ridicule by showing up in Britain on the eve of the Olympics and questioning London's preparedness for the games. There was the final night of the Republican convention, when Hollywood legend Clint Eastwood rambled on stage for more than 10 minutes in national prime-time television. There was Romney's own acceptance speech, which failed to mention the war in Afghanistan or acknowledge U.S. troops fighting abroad.
Romney spent last week litigating and defending his heated reaction to the U.S. embassy and consulate attacks in Egypt and Libya. Then, this week began with a pile-up of negative stories: first, POLITICO's account of internal tensions in Romney's campaign, centered on adviser Stuart Stevens, and the even more explosive Mother Jones video.
( Also on POLITICO: GOP split on Romney remarks)
Now, Romney heads into the final seven weeks of the campaign struggling to shed the aura of a candidate on the skids — an Inspector Clouseau-like figure who can't perform the basic tasks of his job without getting into trouble. It's an image wildly at odds with Romney's background as a successful businessman and entrepreneur, the picture of managerial competence in the board room and the governor's office.
Romney remains competitive with Obama in public opinion polls, but it'll be exponentially harder for him to close the gap if he's permanently branded as a loser in the eyes of political elites and the media.
"I would say this: if you're going to have a story about internal campaign discord, and if you're going to have an embarrassing video go public, you might as well have those things happen on consecutive days," said Dan Schnur, the former spokesman for John McCain's 2000 campaign who now head's USC's Unruh Institute of Politics.
( PHOTOS: 10 gaffes caught on mic)
Political strategists in both parties look on Romney with a combination of frustration and sympathy — and, among Democrats, undisguised glee. Some of Romney's woes are genuinely of his own creation, but there's also a recognition on both sides that the former Massachusetts governor is caught in a classic downward political spiral, where the perception of weakness drives one negative story after another, and political reporters compete ferociously to draw the most blood from a sinking candidate.
To break out of that cycle, Schnur said, Romney will have to do more than just wait for the latest bad news cycle to blow over.

Representatives for Family Dollar on Wednesday announced to a full house that the corporation was looking at opening a store in Mancos.
The town's moratorium on big-box stores expires in mid-March, and Family Dollar is looking to open a store on Willow Street facing U.S. Highway 160.
The town can't accept an application for a new location until the moratorium is lifted.
The presentation was met with cardboard signs protesting Family Dollar, and several residents spoke against a new location.
"Please do your best to stop this infiltration of junk. We don't need it," said Ginny Moore, a town resident.
Reside Liz Bohm spoke about the experience other towns have had with stores like Family Dollar and how they hurt the local economy. For every one job that a corporate store creates, 1.4 local jobs are lost, she said.
"There's a lot of data that shows negative impact," she said.
Family Dollar representatives Greg Wall, a project manager, and Brad Lasater, a corporate real estate broker, spoke to town trustees about making a new building visually appealing.
A new store would be about half the size of a Walgreens, they said, and would be much smaller than a big-box store. The company would be willing to decorate the building with faux stone to help it blend into the neighborhood and use muted sign lighting. A store would employ about nine to 11 people. The sites are maintained and stocked well, Lasater said.
"We're good neighbors actually," Lasater said. Alan Rolston said he was concerned about a store's economic impact on the town.
"Studies show that bigger retail stores, they don't expand the pie; they take the share of other existing businesses," he said.
Chip Tuthill said the business could open just outside of town to avoid town restrictions.
"What are we, a one-mile strip? They can move outside of that," he said.
The trustees said they would work with the Planning and Zoning Committee to revise town codes dealing with businesses such as Family Dollar.

Angus Deaton, author of The Great Escape: Health, Wealth, and the Origins of Inequality recently did a podcast with Russ Roberts to talk about our standard of living and The Great Escape. Deaton surveys the improvements in life expectancy and income both in the developed and undeveloped world. Inequality of both health and wealth are discussed as well. The conversation closes with a discussion of foreign aid and what rich nations can do for the poor.
The interview was then discussed on another popular economics blog, Café Hayek, which includes an excerpt of the interview.
He will also be at an event at the World Bank on December 2nd at 12:30. Unfortunately, there isn't an event page for this anywhere yet, but we'll sure to post more about it when we can!

When schema checking is on, Directory Server ensures that all import, add, and modify operations conform to the currently defined directory schema.
The object classes and attributes of each entry conform to the schema.
The entry contains all required attributes for all of its defined object classes.
The entry contains only attributes that are allowed by its object classes.
When modifying an entry, Directory Server performs schema checking on the entire entry, not just on the attributes that are being modified. Therefore, the operation might fail if any object class or attribute in the entry does not conform to the schema.
However, schema checking does not verify the validity of attribute values with regard to their syntax.
Schema checking is turned on by default. In general, run Directory Server with schema checking turned on. Many client applications assume that having schema checking turned on is an indication that all entries conform to the schema. However, turning on schema checking does not cause Directory Server to verify the existing contents in the directory. The only way to guarantee that all directory contents conform to the schema is to turn on schema checking before adding any entries or reinitializing all entries.
One case where you might want to turn schema checking off is to accelerate import operations of LDIF files known to conform to the schema. However, there is a risk of importing entries that do not conform to the schema. If schema checking is off, imported entries that do not confirm to the schema are not detected.
See Replicating Directory Schema for details on using schema checking in replicated environments.
When an entry does not conform to the schema, it might not be possible to search for this entry, and modification operations on the entry might fail. Follow the steps in this procedure to correct the problem.
You can use DSCC to perform this task. For information, see Directory Service Control Center Interface and the DSCC online help.
To avoid having to fix schema compliance issues, plan your schema ahead of your deployment to minimize schema changes. For more information, see the Sun Java System Directory Server Enterprise Edition 6.2 Deployment Planning Guide.
To determine why the entry does not comply, retrieve the entry and manually compare it with the currently defined schema.
See To View Attribute Types and To View an Object Class for details.
Modify the entry so that it complies with the schema, or modify the schema so that it complies with the entry.

Perhaps it's not surprising, but what this video from The Clan of the Grey Wolf reveals is that much of the tech behind the Wii U's GamePad is stuff you may already be familiar with—only used in a clever, innovative way.
As the video points out at the start, this seems to be a thing with Nintendo hardware, where they use proven tech to create something completely new.
What I like best about this video is that it dives deep into technical things, but does so in a remarkably approachable way.

The Shakespeare Theatre Announces SHAKESPEARE THEATRE ACADEMY
The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey has announced the launch of The Shakespeare Theatre Academy, a new expansion of its already extensive education program offerings. Beginning in March, the Theatre will offer youth and adult classes in a wide range of disciplines connected with classic theatre. Each series of classes meets once a week and offers participants the opportunity to work under the instruction of The Shakespeare Theatre's renowned artistic and educational staff as well as guest teaching artists.
"As The Shakespeare Theatre enters its second half-century and with the acquisition of its new, centralized support facility in Florham Park, it is primed to embark on this newest educational endeavor, The Shakespeare Theatre Academy," said Director of Education Brian B. Crowe. "Whether a student is taking his or her first theatre class or this experience is just one step on an ever-evolving theatrical journey, The Shakespeare Theatre Academy provides compelling, enriching, and fun opportunities for the artist in everyone."
Associate Director of Education and one of the Theatre's Fight Directors Doug West will lead both sword and unarmed stage combat courses for students ages 16 and up. With small class sizes, students will receive individualized attention as they discover the meticulous art of choreographing realistic duels and fights for shows. Crowe, a frequent Main Stage director, will lead two introductory classes in scene study for aspiring adult and young adult actors. Through text, character and language analysis, participants will bring some of classic theatre's greatest characters to life.
The Shakespeare Theatre Academy's spring semester includes the following classes:
EN GARDE!: SWORD PLAY 101 (ages 16 and up) The masterful craft of single sword play flashes through and enlivens so many of Shakespeare's plays; from the impassioned and fiery fights of Romeo and Juliet and Hamlet to the comic diversions of Twelfth Night and The Comedy of Errors. This eight-week series will cover the basics of form and safety, as well as the acting magic required to make Shakespeare's fights come to life. Foils and blades will be provided during classes by the Theatre.
PUNCH, TUMBLE, AND ROLL: UNARMED STAGE COMBAT (ages 16 and up) From a single slap or shove to an all-out rumble, great detail and care goes into creating the illusion of realistic fights on stage and film. Learn some of the basic tricks-of-the-trade implemented by actors and fight choreographers when developing believable, exciting and safe scuffles and brawls.
ADULT CLASSIC SCENE STUDY (ages 18 and up) Ever dreamed of being on stage in a thrilling Shakespeare tragedy or one of Moliére's rollicking, fast-paced farces? Designed for novice and semi-experienced actors, this eight-week series focuses on the skills necessary to bring life to the classics on stage. Participants will work with The Shakespeare Theatre's acclaimed staff while delving into works from Euripides to Shakespeare to Shaw to Williams.
YOUNG ACTORS SHAKESPEARE SCENE STUDY (ages 14-18) An extension of The Shakespeare Theatre's popular Junior and Senior Shakespeare summer program, the Young Actors Shakespeare series takes students through the actor's approach to Shakespeare. From text analysis and speech work to engaging in the "deliciousness of language" and physical characterization, this eight-week series explores some of Shakespeare's most popular (and some lesser-known) scenes and sonnets.
To register or find more information about The Shakespeare Theatre Academy, call 973-845-6742 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.
A long-standing leader in arts education, The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey is deeply committed to nurturing new talent for the American stage and providing compelling enrichment programs for patrons of all ages. The Theatre's Summer Professional Training Program brings early-career artists from across the nation to study and experience classic theatre in an intense, hands-on environment alongside some of the most respected artists in the country. The Junior and Senior Shakespeare Corps has provided an exciting immersion in Shakespeare and other classics for young people ages 11 to 17 for over two decades. The Pages-to-Players in-school residencies, the Shakesperience: NJ Student Shakespeare Festival, and the Shakespeare LIVE! educational touring company and workshops provide even more opportunities for students and educators to be a part of the magic of classic drama. Patrons of The Shakespeare Theatre have long praised the Theatre's Symposium and Know-the-Show series, as much appreciated opportunities for audiences to get a deeper look into the work on stage.
The acclaimed Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey is an independent, professional theatre company located on the Drew University campus. One of the leading Shakespeare theatres in the nation, serving 100,000 adults and children annually, it is New Jersey's largest professional theatre company dedicated solely to Shakespeare's canon and other world classics. Through its distinguished productions and education programs, the company strives to illuminate the universal and lasting relevance of the classic for contemporary audiences.

I am interested in understanding and applying practical geo-spatial examples for some of the transportation data that I have. I have several geocodes that I will pull from the database, and display in maps - as map clusters and points, similar to Redfin.
I want to unlock more value of my data - for instance allow the user to draw a ploygon and compute the number of points inside the polygon. Click on 2 markers and display distance etc. This makes the map more feature rich as opposed to a simple cluster of markers.
I like what leaflet offers and the abilities in Postgres/PostGIS to issue geospatial queries, and I am looking to build UI where users can query in a more intuitive mouse click and drag operations. Please point me to some good examples or sites that have implemented this.

To the Editor:
As a resident of Sugar Grove, I find the upcoming election to have great relevance. The race for village president will be very tight; however, I feel that the best candidate for this position is Kevin Geary.
He has been an honest and trustworthy individual that has stood by his word. He works hard for his friends and neighbors and wants to make Sugar Grove a community we can all be proud of. He wants to bring the community together and make it not only a place to live but a hometown.
Under the current regime, the village has become disjointed and is no longer seen as a whole community. There is no sense of "village" or "hometown" – for many, this is merely a place to rest their head.
Kevin Geary plans to bring back that sense of community and make this, once again, our hometown.

And I can do it without killing myself at the gym or starving half to death.
I won't tell you what my beginning weight was, maybe once I've reached my final goal I'll reveal that number but until then I will say that since Matthew and I started our 30 Day Challenge on June 1st, I have lost 12lbs. We've slacked off the last week so I haven't been losing like I was but I've not gained any either, so I know that what we're doing works.
To find out who won you can head on over to Catherinette's blog and congratulate the girls on a job well done.
They've decided to go another round, as there are girls who didn't quite meet their goal, and most everyone has signed up for round two, but I think I'm going to go it alone from now on - well just me and Matthew. The girls are great and it was awesome to read the witty and sometimes snarky comments back and forth as they pushed and prodded each other to put down that twinkie and get to the gym. But not winning kind of put a dent in my cap so to speak. I know it wasn't about the prize, but knowing I have 2 medical conditions that make me have to work twice as hard as everyone else to lose just one pound, and having lost 12lbs in spite of that then not even making 2nd or 3rd place.. well it deflated the joy I had from working so hard and sucessfully losing weight.
However, if you want to sign up for the 2nd go around head over here
With Matthew as my main support I don't expect anything from him, so when I don't 'win', I won't feel like all my hard work has been for nada. It will be just about losing the weight and getting healthy, which for me personally is just a better plan.
I have decided though to continue the Muffin Top(ple) Monday posts to keep you updated on my journey to health and fitness.
In other news - Biggest Loser is holding an open casting call here in Mobile on July 11th and I think I'm going to try out. I've talked to Matthew about it quite a bit to see what he thinks, and yes I know I'd be doing it for ME, but if I did get picked I'd be away for 4 months filming and that would effect HIM as well. Four months without being able to see and quite possibly talk to each other. Four months of him taking over making sure our rent and utilities get paid, which is something I've always done, as they're all in my name. Four months of him going grocery shopping and fending for himself in the kitchen rather than having a home cooked meal, which will more than likely result in a nightly cuisine of corn dogs and spaghetti-o's.
The general consensus is - we would miss each other madly, but this would be one hella fantastic opportunity for me and I should go for it. It would also give me the platform I've been looking for to talk about PCOS and Hypothyroidism - and how hard losing weight can be for women who have not just one, but both of those conditions. There are just not enough resources or information out there for women with PCOS, and nearly none on how to manage weight loss with PCOS and Hypothyroidism combined.
My doctor basically told me 'You just have a big body type' and will always be large. Huh? Seriously?!
Well needless to say I wasn't happy with that answer and the last few weeks have shown me that there are things that work, and it doesn't have to be a huge struggle to get off the weight these conditions put on.
As the date for the casting comes closer I'll blog more about it and will definitely keep you updated on the casting process itself. Wish me luck!!

THE SPORTS DOCTOR- Golden moment: NCAA must shuck Pearl
People who watched the 1996 boxing documentary When We were Kings, were surely struck by the elegance and elocution of actor Malick Bowens, perhaps best known for his role as Farah in Out of Africa. They may also remember how he described Muhammad Ali's 1974 fight against George Foreman: "Muhammad Ali, he was like a sleeping elephant. You can do whatever you want around a sleeping elephant; whatever you want. But when he wakes up, he tramples everything."
Ali's heyday is over, but today we have a new sleeping elephant: it's the NCAA and it's Led Zeppelin time (get it?).
The NCAA has been in a light slumber only for the past decade or so, but in the last couple of months high-profile violations have been coming quick and fast like a bucket of ice water. The National Collegiate Athletic Association is wide awake, and if they stay that way, they just might be able to wrangle a few of their toughest bulls to the ground.
While the fate of Reggie Bush's Heisman trophy lies with the Heisman committee, the NCAA has trampled the former USC running back's reputation. When UVA prepared to take the field at Southern California last Saturday (if only our kicker could kick!), the replica of Bush's #5 jersey wasn't hanging in the Coliseum with Matt Leinart's and Marcus Allen's– and yes, O.J. Simpson's.
When the NCAA was meting out sanctions to USC for treating Bush as a professional athlete, not only did they ban the school from the postseason for two years, strip it of its 2004 National Championship, and take away more than 20 scholarships, they also required the school to remove all images and references to Reggie Bush.
That's heavy.
A wise and cowardly Pete Carroll jumped ship before getting his 40 lashes, so we'll never know what the NCAA had in store for him. But if they have any pent-up frustration over letting Carroll slip through their fingers, Bruce Pearl would be wise to tender his resignation immediately.
Last Friday, the Tennessee Volunteers head basketball coach admitted publicly that he gave misleading and incorrect information to the NCAA about possible violations during an investigation into the school's basketball program. A tearful and emotional Pearl said, "I learned that it's not OK to tell the truth most of the time, but you've got to tell the truth all of the time."
Considering Pearl admitted his "mistakes" 24 hours after receiving a letter notifying him of another NCAA investigation into Tennessee's athletic program, Pearl's "all of the time" really means "when I'm going to be found out anyway."
With the Pearl debacle, the NCAA has a chance to make a real difference in college sports. They may have put the scare into some football programs by pistol-whipping USC, but that's Division I football, the highly visible jewel in the NCAA crown. If the NCAA comes down hard on basketball, a sport largely allowed to police itself, it would be an indication the Association means business, which would be a welcome change.
No matter if it's an athlete, a coach or a fan, it's easy to forget that the NCAA is not an isolated organization imposing arbitrary rules, but rather an organization composed of representatives from the very academic institutions it governs. When USC and Pete Carroll or Tennessee and Bruce Pearl violate NCAA rules, they betray themselves and their peers and any sense of equity and integrity they have worked together to ensure.
Whether the NCAA will use these high-profile cases to do more than momentarily flex a muscle remains to be seen. It would be very easy for the NCAA to think they deserve a little catnap after USC and Reggie Bush, but they would be missing a golden opportunity. If the NCAA can stay awake long enough to get a handle on Tennessee and Bruce Pearl, they might get a tighter grip on the rest of their member schools in the bargain.

This is the scumbag that e-kul idolizes. The face of a bald dog. The number one terrorist in Burma
This Buddhist monk named U Wirathu is responsible for the mass killing of thousands of innocent civilians in Burma and their only crime is that they are Muslim.
He openly declares that it is important to rid the Burmese population of Muslims and has called on his people to spill Muslim blood. He looks upon Muslims as a disease. He also said he looks up to the EDL in the UK.

Perhaps a little history on the Rohingya issue in Myanmar would enlighten you as to the cause of the current problems. This is primarily a Rohingya issue, not a Muslim issue.
During WWII Bengali/Chittagonian Muslims (who migrated during colonial time) sided with the British, they clashed with the Rakhine/Japanese; when the British returned,
the Muslims murdered thousands of Rakhine in Buthidaung/Maungdaw
(since then the Muslims have an overwhelming majority there). 1947, a Mujahid uprising started,
the Muslims demanded their own state
(that the British had promised for their loyalty!). The descendants of these Muslims call themselves now conveniently Rohingyas.
Most Rohingyas are considered illegal Bangalis even by established Moslem communities since they can neither speak a local Rakhine dialect nor Burmese and do not integrate. They immigrated into Rakhine from Bangladesh especially during Ne Wins time no problem due to a corrupt immigration.
Most Muslims who have been living in the rest of Myanmar for decades or since early colonial time do not want to be associated with Rohingyas. For instance, the Kamen are living side by side with the Rakhine for centuries.
Whilst I don't agree with what is going on out there, there is more to this than "Buddhists hate all Muslims" in Myanmar.
I must say it does seem somewhat ironic that a man like yourself, who says all Americans are sheep for believing the mainstream media, posts information gleaned from Time magazine.
I guess if it fits in with your dogma, the it must be true, right?

So after banning 11 Iranian television stations in the UK. The Uk has created its own 'freedom tv' persian channel which of course slanders Iran, Iranian president, etc...
Ah desperation, it has no bounds.
Kind of reminds of how the BBC and western media tried to create that so called 'revolution' in iran, where some tens of thousands were around, but they did not show the protests that were in the millions around iran in support of ahmedinajad and iran.
Sheesh... in lebanon US is calling for elections for stability.
These people are the ones starting wars, causing death and causing instability. What irony and what hypocricy.
manipulation, deception and destabilization.
Quote from: a_ahmed on October 23, 2012, 09:57:32 PM
Here we go, as I predicted, the US and Israel are using lebanon as a stepping stone in the region as well.
First a mossad/cia bomb, and the US "offering to investigate the explosion" lmao... aka cover up.
Now media and political warfare machine gearing up for 'regime change'
Quote from: a_ahmed on June 17, 2013, 09:09:41 AM
Sorry this thread is about orthodox jews protesting zionazis and israhell. Did you know they actually are pro-islam and pro-muslims? They talk about the peaceful coexistence before israel was forecfully created and the elder rabis who were alive before the british and israeli nazi rule.
Of course they don't get the media attention because it's not in israel's interests.

Brain dead idiots not realizing this is an engineered plot to lure Turkey into the regional conflict and start world war 3
. People don't follow events except 24 hour reporting of propaganda media don't they?
Turkey was a staunch and oppressive secular military dictatorship. It was finally overturned and all the military was sacked and it is a Muslim party that rules now for that 90%+ Muslim population. That being said, the secularists don't like it, so they are using a stupid park protest as an excuse to start an all out chaos in the country. Parties of interest are ganging in on the action and it's being turned into another 'them islamists' event by the western media.
The point? Destroy yet another developed Muslim country and involve it in the regional conflict, make chaos, make everything unstable, give Israel a helping hand, Israel is blood thirsty to get into Iran, Syria, Turkey, etc...
Saudi Arabia is the last target.
People just don't realize what's going on. An engineered world war that is using Muslims as a scapegoat and
dumb media spoon fed Americans/westerners are not realizing what's been spoon fed to them day and night.
By proxy, by direct military intervention, by political stunts, by social media, by puppet governments, all at once.
Old colonialism didn't quite work, this new method... for now, is faring well, but will not fare well in the long run either. People can only be dumb for so long.
But Time Magazine is spot on

In 1989 Time magazine ran a front cover of Muslim Abdullah Azzam who was the main instigator in the revival of Jihad in the 20th century.
If you want to start a fund for this revival then be my guest.

I don't know "U Wirathu" or the background here and you will forgive me for not just taking you at your word. He looks a bit crazy, but looks can be deceiving. At any rate, if he initiates violence he is as contemptible and vile to me as anyone else who does that, his Buddhist monk robes and cleanly shaved head notwithstanding.
The bottom line is that I condemn anyone who chooses to
violence - there is
any excuse for that.

Muslims need to stop being so arrogant. Muslims think they are the only group that is willing to die and "love death as life it's self"
News Flash there are a 100 no 100's of religions that feel as strong about their faith as any Muslim and will to die for it.
Even atheist Asian cultures as well have beliefs. Heck... the Japanese would die for the Emperor and so would any Samurai die for his master.
Muslims... I beg you... stop being so arrogant and hyporites!!! There are other people in the world. Now go kiss a Hindu
Insha'allah Ameeeeen

Models Spotify Playlists August 2012
What Are the Supermodels Listening to These Days?
What Are the Supermodels Listening to These Days?
A look at the playlists of four very different models — Chanel Iman, Jessica Stam, Chrissy Teigen, and Kate Upton, to be exact — reveals that their taste in music is just as different as their personas.
All four women signed on as part of Skullcandy's Supermodel Crew this Summer; the first part of the collaboration with the headphone brand was to list what songs are on their Spotify playlists. Teigen's is heavy on R&B from John Legend (they're engaged to be married, after all), while Stam's includes soulful, old-school tracks from Etta James, Otis Redding, and Willie Nelson. What are the others listening to? Find out — and listen to the tracks — right here.

Pick of the week: Wolfenstein (PC, PS3, 360)
Leading this week's retail game releases is Wolfenstein—a sequel to last generation's Return to Castle Wolfenstein, which combines Nazis and the occult into one FPS package. Players will once again take on the role of super soldier B.J Blazkowicz as they attempt to thwart Hitler's plans for world domination. Our time spent with the game at GDC 09 revealed a title that was solid, although a tad uninspired. But if you're looking to scratch that FPS itch, this could be a good purchase. And hey, if enough people buy it, your copy might even end up being free.
Other games of note this week: War Leaders: Clash of Nations brings some real-time global strategy to the PC; the Joint Operations series gets bundled up in Combined Arms; and Disney's sci-fi take on Pokemon, Spectrobes, jumps from the DS to the Wii. Read on for the complete list.
- Wolfenstein
- War Leaders: Clash of Nations
- Delta Force Xtreme 2
- Joint Operations: Combined Arms
Nintendo DS
- My Friends
- My Make Up
- My Dress Up
- Sudoku Ball: Detective
- Spectrobes: Origins
- ATV Quad Kings
PlayStation 3
- Wolfenstein
Xbox 360
- Wolfenstein
While efforts have been made to ensure the accuracy of these lists, release dates are always subject to change.

8. Attending the genealogy conference hosted by the Fairfax Genealogical Society.
7. Finally writing up articles about my great-great uncles William Henry Lewis and Preston E. Moore.
6. Learning that Vickie Everhart of BeNotForgot and Ethelene Dyer Jones are my cousins!
5. Just being part of the Genea-Blogging community.

3. Hosting the 85th Carnival of Genealogy.
2. Receiving a picture of my grandfather (plus his mother and two brothers) from my cousin George.

I cannot call all of these things "accomplishments," but they were pretty exciting….

Gov. Robert Bentley, the state's physician-in-chief, has examined Alabama's ailing finances and delivered his diagnosis to lawmakers.
The news is grim: Alabama faces a deficit of more than $400 million, and the state must make painful cuts to a range of agencies and departments already stretched thin by declining revenue.
Bentley discussed his budget plan and a variety of state issues during an hour-long interview at the Press-Register on Friday.
"We considered just putting a dire budget out there for the general fund and let it stand in contrast to a relatively good budget on the education side," he said. "That would really show the difference and why I believe we really need one (unified) budget. But I decided that was just presenting a problem without a solution, and I wanted to give a clear solution."
Initial response has not been good. Both Democratic and Republican legislators alike have rejected Bentley's proposal to shift money from the state's Education Trust Fund to pay for Medicaid expenses, prisons and other state agencies.
Bentley, however, said lawmakers have yet to realize the extent of the state's financial problems.
"Most legislators have no clue about the budgets. They haven't even looked at them yet. The chairmen (of the budget committees) are really the only ones" with an informed opinion, Bentley said. "So we let them pitch a fit. But as they get into it, I think they'll slowly come around. Especially those other legislators, other than the chairmen, they'll begin to wonder how we're going to solve this situation. And then they'll look at our budget and say, you know, that's not bad. That's not a bad budget."
Bentley repeated his assertion that there is no "Plan B" to fix Alabama's financial mess.
"It took us three months of really working just to get Plan A," he said. "This is the best budget. I truly believe they'll come around to see that. I'm not saying they'll do exactly what we proposed because that never happens. But when they look at all the options, they're going to reach the same conclusion we did. And that is — without raising taxes, which we're not going to do — the only way we can function is to use what money we have available. And we came up with a way to do that without hurting education."
On HB56, Alabama's immigration law:
Bentley said he and his staff have been working on recommendations "to clarify the law and make it simpler."
"There are parts of the bill that are unnecessary, that I think shouldn't be in there," he said. "The most important thing that we keep is e-Verify and making sure the people you hire are legal citizens. If there was nothing else in the bill, that's what we need to have."
Bentley said he did not regret signing the bill, even if it was flawed.
"I knew it was not a perfect bill. It was late in the session. It was either sign it or not have a bill. And so I decided to sign it, because it did have a lot in it that I wanted. Now, once we get through with what we're going to recommend, I think everything's going to be okay. I really do."
On the recruitment of Airbus to Mobile:
"We've been working on that for over a year. We're prepared, as are the cities and the county, if things work out the way we hope they're going to work."
Bentley said that, despite the state's financial distress, Alabama does have the money and tax incentives required to land the mega-project.
"We have that set aside and we've kept it set aside ever since I've been governor," Bentley said.
On his relationship with the Alabama Education Association:
"People thought I was an AEA puppet. I wasn't before the (2010) election, and I'm sure not now. I never have been. They are a special interest group, and they look after their special interest. That's all they do. They don't care about anything else. They talk about the children but they don't care about the children. They care about money."
On new AEA head Henry Mabry:
"I've known him for a long time. I knew him when I ran for the state senate in 1988 and got beat. He helped me then, and we've worked on other issues since then. But he has a different role now. He has to try to be very tough. He's going to fight us on some issues, probably just to prove he's as strong as Paul Hubbert. Do I like his attitude? No, I don't. But I'm not in this to get in a fight with AEA. I'm just going to do what I think is right."
On the push for charter schools:
"Our agenda is try to get a few limited, targeted charter schools. We're not trying to inundate the state. We believe it will help some areas, and certainly there are others that don't need it or want it. But we want to have that flexibility for all of our school systems.
"Of course, just one charter school would upset AEA, and I do think they'll come back strong. It will be a hard fight, because we've got other folks against us on it — like superintendents, maybe even some of the school boards. AEA probably has more legislators on their side (against) charter schools. But we're putting together a different coalition, and it's going to be a fight all the way through."
On insurance reform:
Bentley said he's frustrated that the Affordable Homeowners Insurance Commission, a special panel he established last year to study the issue, hasn't shown more progress.
"I've been a little disappointed in the pace, and I'm going to have to push them a little bit," he said. "I don't want to call a special session until I can make some concrete recommendations. I think just calling a session won't accomplish anything because they don't have the answers in the legislature. I want some answers first, some recommendations, and then we can go ahead and pass something.
"It has not happened as quickly as I'd like. I don't feel there's enough urgency, so I'm going to talk to Tim Russell (commission chairman). But I'm still optimistic that we're going to do something."
On the BP oil spill trial, set to begin Monday in New Orleans:
"We are prepared to go to court. As of right now, that's what we anticipate. Our attorney general and his team have done a good job getting ready for trial. There are settlement talks but as far as I know, we're going to court. And we intend to make them pay for everything they've done.
"We feel we had more losses than Florida or Mississippi. Alabama was hurt ecologically and economically more than any state, except possibly Louisiana. So we're going to fight for everything we can for Alabama. We're not going to let them off the hook."

***Make sure to JOIN our RED HOT ONLINE DEALZ group on Facebook so you don't miss out on any of the awesome bargains this holiday season!***
Bed Bath & Beyond Black Friday Ad
Black Friday Shopping is a tradition that's just as much about shopping out the deals as it is a good family time together. One thing that will get you though, is going Black Friday shopping without a plan! The ads leak early, like this *Bed Bath & Beyond Ad, so start perusing, make your list, and do some online price comparisons for the items you are after, to make sure they are actually really good deals.
If you are only saving $5-10 on an item then you can determine if the store is worth the hassle ahead of time or if you need to go to a different store first. Another thing to research is a store's Ad Match Policy. You may be able to combine several stores into just one trip by Price Matching. For the electronic items, be willing to arrive early in order to get those items. Or if you're shopping online, get up as early as you can. For example, many stores will only carry 2 or 3 of the top TVs so call ahead and see if it's worth trying to get it, if going in.
New this year, not only am I providing the Ad Scan, page by page, but you can also pull up the Item List of the best deals or search for a particular item. When available, you will also be able to click directly on the item you're interested in and be taken right to the website where it's being sold.
This will save a TON of time if you're doing online shopping!
So without further adieu, here is your Bed Bath & Beyond Black Friday Ad for 2016:
*When we receive the Black Friday ads early, this is just what has been leaked on the Internet. We do not guarantee this will be the actual ad, but usually they are very close to the actual ad, if not exactly the same.

Any CONTINUING STUDENT who does not intend to register for degree work or approved field education during any regular semester (fall or spring) must apply for a leave of absence. Such requests, in writing, must be received by the Assistant Dean for Academic Programs and Registrar before the conclusion of the registration period of the semester for which the leave is requested. Request for a Leave of Absence forms are available in the hall outside Holbrook 135. Failure to either register or request a leave of absence each semester may result in termination which means that a student who wishes to return to school will be required to apply for re-admission. Requests for leave received after General Registration will incur the Late Registration fee.
Leaves of absence will not be granted for more than two consecutive semesters at a time. Exceptions are considered by petition to the Assistant Dean for Academic Programs and Registrar. Leave of absence entails a break in all academic work and eligibilities: library privileges; financial aid eligibility; loan deferment qualification; housing; school health insurance eligibility; class work; examinations; thesis work; and interaction with the faculty. However, you will still be required to stay on and check your mandatory PSR student e-mail account in order to receive important announcements about deadlines that will help keep your student status active even as you are away. You are advised to consult with the Financial Aid Office, about whether a leave of absence is the best financial decision. If you have educational loans, a leave of absence may jeopardize your deferment of payment. All semesters of leave are included in your time lapsed period.
GTU Common MA students have a slightly different Leave of Absence policy. They must submit a GTU Leave of Absence form by the close of registration for each semester they will be on leave. There is a fee per semester for MA leaves.
To return from a leave, please notify Assistant Dean for Academic Programs & Registrar, and if you are an MA student, also notify the MA coordinator at the GTU. After you've notified us that you plan to return from leave, just make sure you register online through Sonis during open registration periods. Check the academic calendars online for those dates.
Return of Title IV Funds (R2T4)
Students who withdraw from all coursework (including going on a Leave of Absence) and who do not complete more than 60% of their term of enrollment must have a portion of "unearned" federal funds returned to their source. For more information on PSR's R2T4, please view the policy here.
If you are an entering NEW STUDENT and have been accepted to PSR but cannot attend the semester you had planned to start, please let PSR Admissions know by contacting firstname.lastname@example.com before the close of registration that you wish to defer and for how long (one term usually), and we will keep your admitted status active for up to one year. Semesters of deferment are not included in your time lapsed period.
If PSR does not hear from you by the close of registration and you do not attend, your active admitted status will be terminated, and you will be required to complete another application — including new letters of reference, personal statement, and other admissions forms — should you wish to attend any time after one year of deferment, with no guarantee of admittance the second time around. If you still cannot attend after one year, your active student status will be terminated.
