Up, down, over around...kids love foam climbing blocks, and they provide a great workout, but wow, are they expensive! So we invented a unique, affordable alternative: the world's first inflatable climbing gym. These heavy-duty, weighted blocks cost a whopping 70% less than similar foam activity sets and require almost no storage space. Includes four block shapes: half-moon, cube, triangle, and crawl-thru tunnel. For ages 12 months and up, to 70 lbs. Designed by OneStepAhead! To build endless obstacle courses, add the Connector Set (sold separately). Inflates in 15 minutes with our Pump (sold separately). See Product Details

Gym Time At Home

About Me First Time Parent
Comments about One Step Ahead My Geo Gym Baby Play Forms:
I was so excited to have this arrive at the house that I ran out right away and put it together. Not only did my son love it but our dogs loved it too. The construction is so durable that even the dogs could stand on some of the shapes and I didn't have to worry about the dog's nails ripping it. It is like having your favorite baby gym class at home. It helps build strength through play with ramps and climbers. I have a ready recommended it to friends on FB.
Such a great idea, but not durable.

About Me Parent of Two or More Children
I have 2 boys. A small 4 year old and a 1 year old (less than a year at initial purchase). The boys love these. (Ok, so the smallest is just getting into them, but he loves them now!) They are a great idea, especially for raining/chilly areas (like Canada!!!). I wanted something to entertain them when we're stuck indoors and this is a great concept! After the blocks, the connectors and duties, this cost us $300! (YIKES!) So when the first piece got a hole after a very light play session, we were disappointed. I contacted customer service and they were going to send a replacement right away. The holidays hit and the blocks got put downstairs (to make room for the tree). Once we brought them out again, 2 more pieces got holes with the next play!!! :S Now, this is very light use! So 3 of the 4 pieces deflated with probably just over an hour of play! I got replacements super quick, without duties (thank you!!!) and the boys were super excited to have them back. (We were not so excited to have to blow them up again, LOL!) less than an hour of play, the red one has a hole and is deflated!!! :(So, although I want to love these so, so much, I just can't. The idea is fantastic. The cost is great (minus the insane duties) if they held up. If these cannot hold up to the very light usage of my 2 littles, there's no way they will hold up for heavier/rougher children!I must say, customer service has always been fantastic. I will definitely shop with 1SA again, but not for inflatables! :S
Didn't Last Two Days
By Jessica
from North Carolina
Got this for our 6 month old and 21 month old girls this Christmas. The girls both loved them initially. One piece was leaking air by the second day- with light use. Within 21 days three out of the four pieces are flat. The "patches" provided are barely more effective than a piece of tape. Very disappointed in the quality of this product.
Great idea but just not durable
By BabyMacRo
from Flat Rock, MI
My daughter loves these. However, 5 months in and 3 of the 4 pieces have holes at the seems.
Great idea- NOT GREAT EXECUTION
By Mama Bear to 4 cubs
from Philadelphia, PA
Thought it was going to be a great product and provide hours of fun for my kids. I read the reviews, called and talked to a representative, and decided to purchase even though I was aware it could leak. Well, after three orange pieces and on my fourth red piece, my fingers are crossed. One Step Ahead has been great replacing them, but it is very annoying. And my kids are frustrated!
Lots of fun, not very sturdy

This a great idea, but product is not sturdy enough. Starting leaking air and lost its shape within 2 days. We added more air, but it kept leaking out of three different segments.We are returning it for a refund.
Great for toddlers

My toddler loves the geo gym, but it is a little large. It is a great energy buster when he can not go outside. The connecting mates are great for tumbling onto.
Geo Gym Climbing Blocks
By Sue
from New Mexico
My son loves the GeoGym set and had fun jumping and bouncing on them for two days before the triangular piece developed a hole and then a week later the square one developed a hole. I tried to patch the holes with the patch mending material that the pieces come with, but they did not stop the leaks. I am sending the two pieces back for replacement so hopefully the replacement pieces will be more sturdy than the original two pieces. I have read many pro comments about these pieces so I am going to keep my hopes up that the replacement pieces or my original pieces will not develop holes in them.
Great product, the kids love it!
By Heather
from Plymouth Meeting, PA
It takes up a lot of space, and I don't want to deflate it because it takes so long to blow up, but if you have the space it's well worth the price. The kids have a ball and it's great exercise for them. Great indoor activity!
Terrible quality
By Disappointed mom
from Anaheim, CA
We've had this less than a year and it's useless already. For the entire set, connectors, pump, we paid more than $300. The concept is great - my kids loved it until it very quickly (every various part) began deflating on a daily basis. We've had to patch, pump, fix so often it's ridiculous. My kids are not heavy at all and play on it as expected (not abusing it) - it cannot even stand up to normal play. Don't waste your money on this until they find someone who can make one that lasts. What a waste of money and time (fixing, patching, etc).
By Disappointed
from Easton, PA
This product is an awesome concept and my daughter LOVED it the entire two days she got to use it before the pieces started to deflate. The first two pieces deflated in the first week, and customer service sent two replacements with no hassle, but the other two pieces delfated by the time the replacements arrived. My daughter is only 28 lbs and barely got to use them before they broke, so it is a design flaw. I don't understand why they just don't fix the flaw since so many people are having the same issue. I knew I was taking my chances when I purchased based on the reviews, but DON'T DO IT!!!
Definitely don't exceed weight limit!
By Momma of many
from Chicago, IL
About Me Parent of Multiples (Twins etc)
Bought these climbing blocks as energy busters and developmental tools for my preterm twins, who are physically on target, but still small for their age. The girls loved to climb and go through the tunnel! Unfortunately, so did my older kids and my dog. These climbing blocks didn't last one month in my house. I should've known better and just stuck with the durable foam blocks.
Great Concept but Not Durable
By First Time Mom
from El Paso, TX
My toddler absolutely LOVES this gym set! Unfortunately I have had pieces replaced twice already due to damaged seams. I am very glad that the company truly stands behind their products and I have not had any issues getting the damaged pieces replaced; however, I do hope that they can make some improvements to make the pieces more durable because it truly is a great concept.
A Lot of Fun but Not Durable
By Dad of Two
from New Lenox, IL
Have 2 daughters 1 &4 and they love it. However 1 piece was shipped with a hole in a seam. Onestep replaced the piece, but that piece and another got a hole in a seam 2 weeks later. They are sending replacements for the 2, but hopefully these last a lot longer. If my daughters didn't like them, they would be sent back for a refund. Thank You Onestep for understanding and replacing this product without the hassle!
Not worth the hassle
By Jamie
from Cape cod, ma
I was constantly sending pieces back for replacement. It's too bad because my son absolutely loved the set. Pieces were back and forth in the mail more than in my home. I finally gave up and requested a refund.

Norv Turner thinks Chargers' schedule is conducive to a fast start Posted by Michael David Smith on April 19, 2011, 7:53 PM EDT The San Diego Chargers haven't been fast starters during Norv Turner's tenure as their head coach, and that was particularly painful last season, when the Chargers lost five of their first seven games and missed the playoffs despite going 7-2 from Halloween on. This season Turner thinks things will be different. Appearing on NFL Network just minutes after the Chargers' schedule was released, Turner said he's glad to see the Chargers getting home games in Weeks One, Three and Four. "There's no question," Turner said. "Being home three out of the first four, opening at home — we haven't done that in the last couple years. It's time for us to get off to a great start, and being at home should help us." Of course, getting three home games in four weeks early in the season means a stretch later in the season of mostly road games. For the Chargers, that means they host the Dolphins on October 2, then don't have another home game until they host the Packers on November 6. Turner is less enthused about that stretch of the schedule. "I don't like being away from our stadium for a month," Turner said. "We go about a month and four days from playing at our stadium and I don't know that's fair to our fans." But if Turner is right about the fast start, and the Chargers come home on November 6 with a winning record, the fans in San Diego won't mind.
I heard a rumor that someone in here may be able to help me...... Iv'e got the SOD and have no idea how to get rid of it.
HEY BLEW !!!! Anyway you can maybe cover up that nippage with some of your chop chop skills and save me from deleting it ? NoNo thinks maybe a lightning bolt or something of that ilk would suffice !!!

Thats a cool pic Ringo ..... but even Blew's blowup doesn't do it justice really .....I seen it blown up by clicking on the attatchment in BLEW'S post .....
Good. I need some backup on my prediction that the Sharks choke and so far the Kings have had a tough time putting the puck in the net.

"I worked with Human Resources to explain my story [to the company], a secret I had lived with since I was five years old," that she identified as a woman, not as a man, she said Thursday. "Over a 12 month period, I had conversations with other executives, my department and [company] lawyers, and it was finally OK." In 2006, as an executive at BMC Software, Stabler had surgery to become a female, with the support of her employer.
On a Friday afternoon, she left the office as a man, and on Monday she arrived as a woman. "I came into the office as me," she said. A few weeks later, Stabler began sexual reassignment surgeries.
State Rep. Mike Villarreal, D-San Antonio, wants to ensure that others have similar positive experiences in the workplace, and he has filed HB 238, which would prohibit discrimination based on "sexual orientation" and "gender identity or expression" under the Texas Labor Code. It is the sixth consecutive legislative session in which he has filed legislation to make such discrimination unlawful. The measure received four different hearings in past sessions, bouncing among several committees, but was left pending each time.
"With every session, the odds improve and it's received better," Villarreal said. "I do believe we're going to have a better session than the last one."
For the first time, a companion bill, SB 237, was filed by Sen. Leticia Van de Putte, D-San Antonio, who said she was inspired by President Obama's inauguration speech when he invoked the civil rights milestones of "Seneca, Selma and Stonewall" to urge support for gay rights.
"When [Obama] said that our journey is not complete, I really took that to heart," Van de Putte said. "If our federal government allows them to openly defend us on foreign shores, if they can acknowledge no discrimination for our warriors, don't you think our civilian side should be the same?"
Opponents, however, insist that the provision will not get far in the conservative Texas Legislature.
"We don't think it has legs," said Laura Hoke, spokeswoman for the Texas chapter of the National Federation of Small Business. "We represent thousands of business owners and this is a non-issue." Business owners are concerned about economic recovery and health care, she said.
But El Paso City Council Representative Susie Byrd disagrees. In 2012, a voter-approved city referendum there denied health coverage for domestic partners of city employees. The measure was eventually overturned by the council, but the damage was already done for El Paso businesses, Byrd said.
"I was hearing from fairly significant business owners in the community...that this was crippling," Byrd said. "They would say, 'What a way to not get any more job investment. Maybe we should pick up and run.'"
In 2001, El Paso had experienced rejection based on worries about the city's attitude toward homosexuals. Gap Inc. chose to open administrative offices in Albuquerque instead of El Paso because the city was "more embracing of people that were gay and lesbian," Byrd said. "Some guys from San Francisco asked explicitly about [LGBT issues] and the mayor didn't know how to answer because it's not something that he talks about it, but there's not necessarily discrimination or bad feelings."
On a national level, Texas is in the majority. Only 21 states extend employment discrimination protection to sexual orientation, and 16 states protect against gender identity discrimination.
"What this legislation does is follow the business model of California and New York, and most Texans agree that those models have been a failure," said Jonathan Saenz, president of the conservative group Texas Values. "Any effort to look like them is a dangerous idea."
Supporters point to corporate America as a better example than state governments for responding more quickly to employment discrimination as an economic decision. A majority of Fortune 500 companies, an estimated 88 percent, have implemented policies that prohibit sexual orientation discrimination.
"Lawmakers need to look at the legacies they're going to leave on Texas," said Stabler, who serves as a member of President Obama's LGBT Leadership Circle. "How much longer do LGBT Americans have to wait before they're treated equally in the workplace?"

I've read many of the filed court pleadings and have to say that all of this is mind boggling.Where was the physical evidence in this case? So many gaps in what should have happened and what didn't happen, but yet he gets LWOP. His public defender really dropped the ball. Jeff didn't understand what was going on and did not have another adult or advocate to help him.
I"m not saying I believe he is innocent of all charges, but I do believe that he has served his time. At one point he was in solitary confinement for 4 years - that is inhumane! As someone before me commented, if an animal was treated that way the entire society would be picketing and up in arms.
As to Jeff's credit, I have to say that I commend him on using his time incarcerated to create a life for himself, educate himself, and to keep a positive attitude. Many facing his future would simply give up, whereas he has learned to read, learned another language, educated himself in many subjects, and one of the best - to speak with youth and to share his story to help others not to do the same as he has.
He has gained maturity and worked on rehabilitating himself, even without any thoughts of being released into society. It seems that during that time period, the courts were attempting to crack down on gang violence resulting in throwing away youths that didn't deserve that harsh of punishment.

Indian peace advocates: Mazher Hussain addressing the audience; Shahid Siddiqui and Dr. Mungekar. Photo: ZAB FM 106.6
By Bilal Zubedi
For Szabist students in Karachi, March 18, 2011 marked a new dawn in relations between India and Pakistan. That was a day when in the eyes of many, the possibility grew of making amends in this "complicated" relationship marked by its fair share of bitterness and fights.
The Pakistani students and their distinguished guests from India who gathered on that fine day talked about the need for peace and good neighbourly relations between India and Pakistan. Not all the students may have been convinced about this when they arrived at the hall, but by the time the discussion ended nearly two hours later, everyone agreed that this is the only road to progress in the region.
The Indian visitors who addressed the jam-packed hall bore messages of peace and friendship. They made it clear that they were open to discussing any and all matters of concern to both countries. The mood of the gathering was rather festive and aimed at open-minded interaction, bolstered by a realisation about the similarities between the people of both countries. Perhaps because of this mood, contentious issues like Kashmir, the water dispute or the deployment of Indian forces on the Pakistan-India border were conspicuous by their absence. There appeared to be a tacit understanding that these are political issues between the two states, while the people feel no qualms in embracing each other.
The visitors urged the students, the young adults of Pakistan, to participate and carry the torch of change along with them. The discussion commenced with Pakistani political analyst and columnist Muqtida Mansoor advocating the path of peace and cooperation for Pakistan and India, countries with a common culture and history. Karachi-based poet Tauqeer Chughtai then recited his poem on visa restrictions, a situation he likened to "a forlorn lover unable to meet her/his beloved".
"This is the age of internet," commented peace activist Mazher Hussain from Hyderabad, Deccan who has spearheaded several Indo-Pak peace initiatives. As such, he feels, there is no longer an excuse for Pakistanis and Indians not to communicate and join hands in erasing barriers and differences. Miscreants exist on both sides of the border and dealing with them is a collective responsibility, he added. To keep our homes safe and not allow things to take on an ugly shape is in our joint interests.
Journalist Jatin Desai from Mumbai (who has been particularly active on the issue of detained fishermen on both sides) stressed the need for discussion of all issues because a peace delegation cannot ignore areas of conflict, which would make both sides think of this act of friendship as a mere formality. Every concern should be brought on to the table.
One of India's leading economists, Dr. Bhalchandra Mungekar, Congress member of the Rajya Sabha (Senate) and former vice-chancellor of University of Mumbai and a member of Planning Commission of India reminded the rapt audience that literature can bring together the two people, be it religious or otherwise. The region has similar literary traditions as part of their shared history and the interaction and influence of various corners of South Asia spread over the entire region has been proof of cultural contact that kept diversity in unity.
"How could this historical fact not be true now?" he asked. Realising its significance is a necessity to bring people under a common umbrella of peace.
Bringing the people together and increasing communication and interaction between them was the focal point of the discussion with the fiery Shahid Siddiqui from New Delhi, editor of the leading Urdu daily Nai Duniya and a former parliamentarian. He spoke of his delegation's responsibility, coupled with that of the audience present that day, to erase the existing misconceptions about each other in the hearts and minds of people on both sides of the border. "No one can get votes in India now by hurling abuses at Pakistan," he said.
Several hands shot up when comments were invited. Many expressed their views on the need to ease travel between both countries and to end hatred in the hearts and minds of the people. When Shahid Siddiqui responded asking the students to reject the army's dogma and become democratic, some interjected demanding the decision be left to the Pakistani people. He was loudly applauded when he spoke of the importance of pressure from civil society and declared Kashmir an issue that needs to be discussed, on which both sides needed to compromise.
Afterwards, the students and visitors broke into informal groups discussing their common interests and cultures, and sharing contact details. It seemed to become one large party, long-separated friends coming together to rejoice. Invitations and promises to visit each other flew from one corner to another, supported by Dr. Mungekar's decision to write to the Indian Prime Minister about the matter, upon his return.
Ultimately, South Asians finding it difficult to part even on an empty stomach provided ample proof of their amicable dispositions towards each other.
Perhaps it all comes down to people and their perceptions. This is what makes more such interactions necessary, in order to rid people of their biases. A prejudice-free outlook towards this gradually growing friendship between India and Pakistan may not take root right away, but the attempt is worth a try.
Pakistan and India have tried hostility for decades and the results are fairly obvious. It is time to try a new strategy of cultural cooperation and peace with people at its centre.

SZABIST, moderated the seminar featuring the Indian peace
delegation. He is the author of 'On the Road to Awareness'. Email: firstname.lastname@example.com.

Glenn, Denali and Parks Highway Loop
This road trip is a photographer's dream! Amidst the Talkeetna and Chugach Mountains, the Glenn Highway parallels a path carved by the ancient Matanuska Glacier, where the braided Matanuska River now flows.
A 135-mile section of this Alaska highway is designated as a National Scenic Byway and considered by many as one of the most impressive and scenic drives in Alaska. www.glennhighway.org
This self-drive itinerary forms one big loop around the Mat-Su Valley, following the Glenn Highway northeast to the Richardson Highway, north to the Denali Highway and west to the Parks Highway. From there, turn north to Denali National Park or south and return to the Mat-Su Valley.
At least two or three days are recommended for this scenic Alaska drive, although you may wish for a lifetime. Highlights include historical Alaska roadhouses, mountain lodges, sumptuous dining with world-class views, lake fishing, glaciers, activities and countless scenic viewpoints.
Lodge and campground hosts often share hidden mountain lakes, secret berry picking spots, fossil finds and wildlife viewing tips to enhance your adventure. Check out the Vacation Fundamentals for Alaska tour companies that offer flightseeing, backcountry and ATV adventures in Glacier Country. Stop by the Mat-Su Visitor information Center for a free Glenn Highway National Scenic Byways map or audio drive guide for even more information along this very scenic corridor.
Where to Begin
From Anchorage: travel the Glenn Highway (Alaska Route 1) through Palmer, toward Glennallen, Alaska.
From Wasilla: Connect with the Glenn Highway in Palmer through the Palmer-Wasilla Highway.
What to do
Enjoy the ride and the incredible scenery. There are plenty of pit stop opportunities for hiking, river rafting, geology, wildlife viewing, glacier exploring, photography and more.
Mile 50.1: Just past Palmer, the Musk Ox Farm is home to one of Alaska's domesticated musk oxen herd - Arctic's oldest living species, which has played an important role in Alaska Native culture, www.muskoxfarm.org
Mile 61.6: In Sutton, turn north on Chickaloon Way to explore coal-mining remnants at the Alpine Historical Park. Overnight camping is available at King Mountain State Recreation Site (Milepost 76).
Mile 76: Check in with NOVA Alaska River Guides at the Glenn Highway to take a thrilling white water raft trip down Matanuska River or glacier trek. Adventures are perfect for both first-timer and experienced outdoor enthusiast. www.novalaska.com
If fishing is what you have in mind, several roadside lakes are stocked with rainbow trout and grayling. Ravine Lake (mile 83.2), Long Lake (mile 85.4), Wiener Lake (mile 87.4) and Knob Lake (mile 119) have ample shoreline, so a boat is not necessary.
Would you like to walk on a glacier? Ever dreamed of getting married on a glacier? You can do both at Matanuska Glacier - the largest Alaska glacier accessible by car. The glacier flows majestically out of the pristine peaks of the Chugach Mountains, beneath the towering Mount Marcus Baker (13,176 ft). During the Naptowne Glaciation, 20,000 years ago, the Matanuska Glacier extended all the way down to the Matanuska Valley. About 10,000 years ago, it began to retreat to its present day location. The glacier was first photographed by W. C. Mendenhall in 1898, and since that time there has not been significant movement. Road access to the foot of the glacier is available for a fee at Glacier Park Resort, located at mile 102. Guided hiking and ice climbing tours can be arranged through MICA Guides, www.micaguides.com. There's a campground, gift shop and snacks for the trail. www.matanuskaglacier.com
Mountainside lodges and restaurant facilities dot the highway from mile 99 to mile 115, including Matanuska Lodge, Long Rifle Lodge, Grand View Cafe Cottages & RV Campground, Sheep Mountain Lodge and Majestic Wilderness Lodge. Mendeltna Creek Lodge at mile 153 offers cabins, RV and tent facilities and groomed wilderness trails. (link to lodges)
Mile 106: Mountains and rivers in this area offer recreational fun for rock hounds, fossil hunters and gold panners, especially in the mineral-rich Caribou Creek area. The Caribou Creek Recreational Mining Area features a well-maintained hiking trail that takes you down to the edges of Caribou Creek, a good place for gold panning. There are also picnic sites from which you can occasionally observe Dall sheep, moose and bear.
The Sheep Mountain Dall Sheep Reserve begins just past Caribou Creek Bridge (Mile 106.8), to the north of the highway. Dall sheep are often low enough on the mountain to be seen without binoculars. Best months for viewing are late May, when new lambs can be seen, through mid-September.
Mile 116-118: The National Audubon Society recognizes this area as a major migratory path for hawks, eagles and other raptors. Local birders come to this area approximately the third week of April to catch this major event.
Visit the Lake Louise Recreation Area (turn off at mile 159.8.) for lake trout fishing, views of Tazlina Glacier, snowmobiling and cross-country skiing. Lodging, including Lake Louise Lodge and The Point Lodge, a campground and public boat launch area are available.
Mile 189: Turn north on the Richardson Highway (Alaska Route 4) approximately 70 miles north to Paxton. The highway winds through the foothills of the Alaska Range, offering magnificent views of the Alaska Range, Wrangell Mountains and Chugach Mountains on clear days. Turn west onto the beautiful 135-mile Denali Highway (Alaska Route 8). This road "less traveled," features some of Alaska's most beautiful backcountry vistas outstanding, as well as fishing and hunting, berry picking, wildlife and birding opportunities. Remote lodging is available along the way, although advance reservations are always recommended. The Denali Highway is mostly a gravel road and is closed October through May.
At the junction of the Parks Highway (Alaska Route 3) travel north to Denali National Park or south to Denali State Park for a variety of overnight lodging options.

Unions and the community are 'a natural coalition'
Solution-driven unionism may have been the overarching theme of the 2013 joint conference of the AFT Healthcare and AFT Public Employees divisions, but the importance of community engagement was the biggest takeaway message for the 450 AFT members and guests who gathered in Baltimore, April 25-27. Read more.
Drowning in Debt to Get a Degree
In her latest column appearing in the New York Times, AFT president Randi Weingarten writes about the challenge of making sure more students can earn college degrees at a time when the skyrocketing cost of higher education threatens to put it out of reach for many people. Read the full column.
AFT announces $25,000 Prize for Solution-Driven Unionism
The challenges the AFT faces demand a different approach to unionism—an approach that is relevant and appropriate to the 21st century, that is creative and visionary, and that unifies the members of our union with those we serve. This is what we call solution-driven unionism. We know that across the AFT, there are many inspiring examples of collective work to improve our workplaces and our communities. That's why we created the Prize for Solution-Driven Unionism: to recognize extraordinary accomplishments that exemplify our mission of providing high-quality public education, healthcare and public services.

Union coalition wins challenge to state employee layoffs
After nearly a decade, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals' opinion invalidating former Connecticut Gov. John Rowland's layoff of nearly 3,000 Connecticut state employees is a tremendous victory for the right of free speech. In response to a suit filed by Connecticut's State Employees Bargaining Agent Coalition, the court held that when a governor punishes people because of the group they belong to—whether it's a union, or a political party, or a religion—he or she violates our Constitution's most cherished provisions. Read more.
Common Core: Do What It Takes Before High Stakes
In her latest column appearing in the New York Times, AFT president Randi Weingarten writes about the promise—and the possible pitfalls—of the new Common Core State Standards. If implemented properly—namely, by ensuring that frontline educators are prepared to teach these rigorous new standards—we can provide all children with the problem-solving, critical-thinking and teamwork skills they need to compete in today's changing world. If not, they will end up in the dustbin of abandoned reforms. Read her full column.
Healing Our Healthcare System
In her latest column appearing in the New York Times, AFT president Randi Weingarten talks about the accomplishments to date of the Affordable Care Act, even in its early stages. And she discusses the vital role that nurses and healthcare workers—the AFT is one of the largest unions of nurses in the country—play in enhancing patient care and improving the healthcare system.

Medicaid expansion is dead for now in the Missouri House.
First, the House subcommittee that oversees the budgets for the Departments of Health, Mental Health and Social Services voted to approve those agencies budgets without including Governor Jay Nixon's (D) call to expand Medicaid to an additional 259,000 Missourians next year. State Representative Sue Allen (R, Town and Country) chairs that subcommittee.
"We can't afford it…it's not rocket science," Allen said. "If we expand, taking federal dollars now, which I do not believe would not use some state (general revenue), even with what we're told the feds would do now, there will be a time (when) the feds will back off."

Earth Day's Little Helper
Our local Whole Foods has a plot at our park district's community garden. {find a local garden} A few years ago, I admired the gardeners from afar when I lived in the neighborhood. I used to lay on a grassy hill with my (then a puppy) canine companion and admire the gardeners as they tended to their plots while I flipped through the pages of a book.
Back to Earth Day… Whole Foods volunteers planned to break ground at their garden plot on Monday and I have been excited for the past couple weeks to take Dekker. Fortunately, the weather in our area is on the up and up after our monsoon of a storm last week, and it was a gorgeous day to let him get dirty!
Life gets busy. Weather locks us in. Time doesn't allow for everything to get done. But events like this are important for me and provide opportunities to teach my son about life and health. I looked at him during his late afternoon nap, and smiled at the innocence on his face and dirt under his fingernails. I can't help but look forward to getting some of my own plants in the ground now that the weather here will finally allow us to do so. Hope you had a healthy Earth Day!
Maybe you can find your own community garden here!

Styling has always been a priority for a lot of us. But these days, many trendsetters and trendy personalities are also paying critical importance towards saving the environment and wearing sustainable clothing. This has given rise to organic clothing and development of several Eco-brands that provide clothing made from sustainable agricultural products like cotton, jute, wool and silk. Since these materials don't use any chemicals or modified seeds for the production of cloth, they protect the environment and reduce pollution through chemical residues along with promoting the recycling process.
Although they are little expensive than the normal brands, they are worth every penny spent. Check out these best Eco-clothing brands.
1. Amana
This clothing brand originated from London and is known for using sustainable and organic wool, silk and even bamboo for their style products. They are handmade and therefore offer employment to a lot of people in Morocco where the seamstresses are employed. Amana's organic cotton is certified by Skal, which is Dutch organic certification body. No fertilizers or pesticides are used in growing its hemp. The silk again is organically produced. Apart from this, the clothes are well designed and offer large variety.
2. Ciel
Ciel is a luxury brand by Sarah Ratty who designs luxurious and sustainable lingerie. The material used here is 100 percent Azo free dyes and uses recycled fabrics to create comfortable wear. The natural color blends makes your clothing desirable as well as environment safe. This clothing is for eco conscious women who do not believe in sacrificing style. Even actresses like Cate Blanchett and Sienna Miller prefer this fashion conscious brand with a conscience.
3. Howies
Howies is a small but fast developing organic clothing brand in U.K. that provides quality, eco sports clothing for both men and women. With quality being their motto, they create products and clothes that are safe for environment, are prepared from recycled fabrics and are dye, fertilizer free. This company has a strong ethical identity and therefore their t-shirts and sweat shirts have messages related to environmental themes.
4. Annie Greenabelle
This brand aims to provide quality, Eco-friendly clothing that is beautiful as well as affordable. The organic fabrics are certified and only Fairtrade certified cotton are used in production of garments. Soft and light weight dresses makes it a preferred choice of several Eco-conscious women. There is a wide range of clothing available including party dresses, coats, tops and bottoms and new collections are launched several times in a year.
5. People Tree
People tree offers sustainable fashion and believes in ethical working standards. They use products that minimize environmental wastes and their fabrics are certified by Fairtrade. Natural dyes are used to give vibrant colors to your attires and the products are bio-degradable. The production process provides employment to several people and help reduce poverty in marginalized locations.
6. Libertine
This brand is built on social and ethical norms and provides ultimate fashion products for those who believe in wearing sustainable clothing. It sets new standards in fashion industry and raises common individual's conscious towards environmental degradation and the need to stop it. The fabrics are durable and high quality and there is a special focus on masculine trends and styles for trendy males. The designers of this brand have been witnessing proud moments as this brand has started a new era in fashion industry.
7. Bodkin
Bodkin clothes are presently manufactured in U.S. and combine unique aesthetics along with organic clothing. The clothes are relaxing and have culturally creative themes. The materials used are not heavy on the ecology and are sustainable. Fabrics that are produced have been certified as Eco-friendly and therefore are a perfect option for those who want organic clothing. Sustainable instruments are used for tearing, making holes in the fabrics. There is a lot of focus upon the durability of the product so that the fabrics are more sustainable and can be recycled at later ages. The conscious approach leads to amalgamation of beauty, style and sustainability.
8. Organic by John Patrick
This is again a famous designer brand that promises organic clothing along with style. John Patrick brought organic clothing into the market when such a concept was considered alien to the retailers. His ecological conscience is reflected in this brand and new concepts are created to promote organic clothing within the masses. The fabrics produced are high quality, sustainable fabrics that offer environmental protection along with long wear and tear.
So, if you are one of those fashion conscious with ecological conscience, then try these brands for a superb feel.

A couple weeks ago Katy Perry raved to her nearly 37 million followers on Twitter. ''Just saw KINKY BOOTS on Broadway & cried w/joy from it's [sic] powerful, beautiful message,'' the pop star Perry wrote in a tweet maxed out to exactly 140 characters. ''Congrats on every of its deserved 13 Tony nominations!'' But Perry wasn't done. A few seconds later she sent a second shorter, punchier tweet: ''AND if Billy Porter doesn't win the Tony for best actor in ...[more]
The Nance is the gayest play currently running on Broadway -- among other attributes, it features a gay writer (Douglas Carter Beane), a gay lead actor (Nathan Lane) and gay content, focused as it is on a gay burlesque star in the 1930s. The critically heralded show also snagged five Tony nominations, including one for Lane's performance. But alas, The Nance didn't get a nod for Tony's top honor: Best Play. The following is a roundup of the shows that ...[more]
Life gets better. That's a comforting truism for those of us on the older side of the LGBT community, who've watched as our country has gone from banning openly gay military service and implementing ''no promo homo'' laws undermining HIV-prevention efforts to the repeal of ''Don't Ask, Don't Tell'' and the domino effect for marriage equality through the nation. But none of that means the work is done. We still have ugly reminders of hate in attacks against LGBT people. ...[more]
It hit Alexander AJ King when he was only in high school. ''I was getting calls back to back to back from my friends saying, 'AJ, I just found out I'm positive,''' he says. The calls came from fellow gay, African-American boys in their teens. ''I was like, 'Wow, there's clearly a disparity going on in this community.''' {AJ King (Photo by Julian Vankim)} That disparity helped push King to choose a career focused on HIV prevention and care, particularly ...[more]
Michael Komo came to activism early in life. More than half of his 24 years have been spent advocating for LGBT equality and he describes that activism as the most rewarding aspect of his life. Originally from Erie, Pa., Komo was about 10 years old when a television show changed his life. {Michael Komo (Photo by Julian Vankim)} ''I know this sounds cheesy, but when Will & Grace premiered in 1998, that was the first time I had ever seen ...[more]
Throughout his life, 26-year-old Joseph Lewis has struggled with embracing the different facets of his identity – as a gay man, a deaf person and an adopted son. He's also refused to allow life's obstacles to deter him from achieving his goals. Born in South Korea to a single mother who placed him for adoption, as a small boy Lewis joined an Iowa family with 14 other children, including two other brothers who are deaf. {Joseph Lewis (Photo by Julian ...[more]
Thanks, in part, to high school years in the Junior ROTC in Forrestville, Md. – where she rose to the leadership rank of regiment commander – Je-Shawna Wholley was sitting pretty with a full ROTC scholarship to Texas A & M University. Something, however, wasn't quite right. ''This was before the repeal of 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell,''' Wholley, 24, explains. ''I was the only black female there in my corps, one of two black people in my corps. And I ...[more]

Behold, the pleasures of summer. Ice cream cones…. Men in swimsuits…. Huh? We got there awfully fast, didn't we? And, well, why not? One of summer's gayer pleasures is to let our eyes wander across the sea of men lounging by the sea – or pool – in their swimwear. Swimwear with style. Swimwear with sex appeal. Swimwear that is less about getting wet and more about looking good. But what of that frozen confection? It surely doesn't hurt matters ...[more]
Like so many others, Patrick Little credits Tracks in making him the gay man he is today. ''It's a common story of Tracks,'' he says. ''I walked in the door straight and came out gay a few years later.'' Little, a native of Fredericksburg, Va., eased into his sexuality by initially only going to D.C.'s legendary gay nightclub on Thursday nights, which was an industrial/goth/punk-themed party, more straight than gay. ''I knew there were gay nights, and that was too ...[more]
METRO WEEKLY: What did Tracks mean to you? ED BAILEY: Tracks was where my passion and my love affair with nightlife and nightclubs started, absolutely. It was the first club that I ever went to. From the very first moment, I was absolutely mesmerized, blown away and hooked. And that was Christmas night 1984. I went with a bunch of straight friends from high school, who did not know that I was gay. They had been there before. Tracks was ...[more]
Michele Miruski is still in the entertainment business -- in a manner of speaking. ''I entertain the residents all day long, or make sure they're entertained. I do activities for them,'' says Miruski, referring to the senior citizens who live in the assisted living/memory care retirement home in Oklahoma City, where she works as a life enrichment director. For the record, her scope of activities doesn't include DJ'ing. ''Oh, lord!'' she laughs at the suggestion. ''Yeah, Glenn Miller's greatest hits, ...[more]
Metro Weekly asked readers to submit their memories of Tracks. Some highlights. ''I believe a lot of people became 'straight, but not narrow' because of the social opportunity that Tracks provided. There is no other place like it anymore, but there should be.'' -- Ms. Deana Gurrrl ''I had just come out of the closet and had to decide whether I wanted to leave the club with this beautiful woman or this guy I just met. I finally realized that ...[more]

At the last turn of the century, Jim Ball, a New Jersey native, was working in PR and marketing, another dynamic transplant to Manhattan. Christopher Lynch, meanwhile, had left his North Carolina roots to work in the corporate world of Estee Lauder, first in D.C., then New York. ''He was a 'spritzer,''' Ball says, teasing the business-minded Lynch. It's a familiarity that comes not only from being business partners, but having once been romantic partners. {L'Enfant Cafe: Jim Ball (right) ...[more]
Shattering glass ceilings is becoming routine for Tammy Baldwin. The first out person to serve in the U.S. Senate, Baldwin's résumé consists of a long list of ''firsts.'' In 1993, she became the first out lesbian member of the Wisconsin State Assembly. In 1998, she became the first out gay person elected to the House of Representatives and the first woman elected to Congress from Wisconsin. And last November, aside from becoming the Senate's first out member, she also became ...[more]
When Edith Windsor exited the Supreme Court after nearly two hours of arguments March 27 on the constitutionality of Section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act, a roar erupted among the hundreds of marriage-equality supporters who had gathered outside. ''Edie! Edie!'' the crowd chanted, waving rainbow flags alongside American flags. The 83-year-old lesbian widow at the heart of one of two landmark gay marriage cases before the Supreme Court strode over to a horde of reporters and television cameras ...[more]

Hint: Signup with CareersPortal and create your own personal Career File. You can then store the results of any assessments you complete into your CareerFile (use the Career Pad App) by simply pasting in the results. This way you can keep a handy record of your work.
Career self assessment is designed to assess those attributes of a person that matter for a successful and fulfilling career. There are many such attributes, and so there are many self assessment tools. Many of these tools are available online. Some are free, others require payment before you can receive the results of the test. In all cases, tests are best used to assist you in gaining clarity about yourself. They are starting points only, as several tests are needed to build a picture big enough to represent you well. Some of the attributes used for career self assessment are discussed below.
We all value different things - some of us value independance over security, or money over creativity. Being clear about what you value will help you select an occupation or employer that will allow you to express yourself best. Value self assessments measure how important different values are to you. There are no definitive tests as values can be very personal, so tests often measure different values. Online Examples:

The Dragons have announced the signing of scrum-half Richie Rees from PRO12 rivals Edinburgh.
Rees will be joining the Dragons over the off-season on a two-year deal with the Men of Gwent.
Making his international debut in 2010, the former Cardiff Blues half-back will be returning to Wales after a season north of the border with Edinburgh.
"I'd like to thank the coaches, staff and fans of Edinburgh Rugby for their support this season," said Rees.
"I've made some great friends here and there's a lot of talent who have the potential to be top class, and I'd like to I wish them all the best in the years to come.
"I remain totally committed to the club for the remainder of my contract and look forward to returning to Wales and joining up with my new club mates in a very ambitious Dragons side."
Dragons Head Coach Darren Edwards added: "We are delighted to be signing a player of Richie's caliber."
"It has been well documented that we have a great deal of potential at scrum half in Jonathan Evans and an experienced game controller in Wayne Evans. But we are looking to strengthen and make many positions in our squad competitive to improve our performance".
"Richie is a proven competitor on both the international and regions stage and has desire to come to the Dragons to make an impact."

This list shows other sites an audience frequents, which can reveal brand preferences and other lifestyle traits. The Audience Also Likes section of a site's profile shows other sites that the audience is likely to visit, and the affinity indicates how much more likely than average. For example, if the profile for wsj.com listed barrons.com with an affinity of 10x, a randomly chosen visitor to wsj.com is ten times likelier to visit barrons.com than the average internet user.
Demographic Index
