Apple rumor site ThinkSecret is no more
We at MacMerc have never been much for rumor publishing. Rumor sites can be fun for their "what if" factor but it's just not what we do. Oh, and there's that whole thing about not having any secret sources inside Apple–that part has kind of held us back in that arena.
As it turns out, having secret sources inside Cupertino can not only be the basis for a website, it can also be the reason for taking it down. Nick Ciarelli from Think Secret issued a press release today stating that he and Apple have settled their lawsuit and reached an agreement. Basically, Nick gets to protect his source as long as he shuts down Think Secret and, in exchange, Apple promises not to sue him into the middel of his next life.
Nick Ciarelli cautiously puts it this way "I'm pleased to have reached this amicable settlement, and will now be able to move forward with my college studies and broader journalistic pursuits."
Yeah, so I think I'm pretty good with not publishing rumors here an MacMerc.

May 2013
Men benefit more than women from nicotine replacement therapy for smoking cessation because nicotine affects a key neuroreceptor differently in the two sexes, a NIDA-sponsored study suggests. The findings highlight the need for alternative therapies for women smokers, and point to the female hormone progesterone as a potential therapeutic target.
February 2013
Nicotine sensitizes the mouse brain to the addictive effects of cocaine, according to recent NIDA-supported research. The results accord with the hypothesis that a person's initial use of an addictive substance physiologically sensitizes his or her brain to the rewarding and addictive effects of other substances. If the findings carry over to people, then preventing youths from smoking might reduce their vulnerability to cocaine abuse and addiction, and cocaine-dependent individuals might ease their path to recovery by quitting smoking.
April 2012
While viewing images of cigarettes, smokers reported milder cravings when they shifted their focus from the pleasures of smoking to its harmful effects. Brain imaging showed a correlation between the reductions in craving and altered activity levels in regions associated with emotional regulation and reward.
April 2012 Dr. Volkow discusses NIDA's efforts to develop effective antismoking treatments for populations with persistently high rates of smoking, such as people with psychiatric disorders, high school dropouts, and Native Americans.
April 2012 A program involving home visits by nurses to low-income first-time mothers, starting during pregnancy and extending into the second year of their children's lives, has a positive and long-lasting impact on families. Children who participated in the program were less likely than others to report having used alcohol, cigarettes, or marijuana at age 12.
During early abstinence, smokers' cravings triggered by cigarette cues intensified over time, providing evidence that people can experience a phenomenon previously observed in experiments with animals
April 2012 NIDA's Women and Sex/Gender Differences Research Program focuses on gender-specific addiction risk factors and treatment needs.
March 2012
New research suggests that differences in tobacco consumption reflect, in part, differences in the functional efficacy of a specific type of receptor in a pathway of the brain. In animal studies, nicotinic acetylcholine receptors with the α5 subunit played a key role in producing aversive responses to nicotine, thereby dissuading further consumption of the drug.
March 2012 Dr. Thomas Kosten of Baylor College of Medicine and Dr. Peter Burkhard of the University of Connecticut are the recipients of NIDA's 2011 Avant-Garde Awards for Innovative Medication Development Research. Dr. Kosten is developing a vaccine against methamphetamine abuse and Dr. Burkhard is developing a vaccine to counter nicotine addiction.
July 2011 Describes research showing that the combination of prenatal smoking exposure and specific genes increases children's and adolescent's risk for behavior problems.

Repetitive Motion SyndromeTopic OverviewRepetitive motion syndrome is a term used to describe symptoms such as pain, swelling, or tenderness that occur from repeating the same motion over and over. Experts disagree about using the term as a specific medical diagnosis. Repeated use of the same motion may cause tissues to swell and become fatigued. Both work and recreational activities can cause repetitive motion syndrome. When the tissues swell and put pressure on the nerves, you may experience:

Last November through a friend i started to learn about Raw food diet and right now i guess i am eating %70 raw. i eliminated dairy products and all processed foods from my diet. (I am still learning and searching and this is the reaosn i am here :=) )
i also encouraged my mom to eat raw .. My mom is almost 70 years old and she over weight.. b/c of her health issues (her knee and bone problems she is in pain) she has to loose weight asap..
last June she started to eat raw and she lost some weight .. before raw food diet she was 189.2 pounds ( she is 4,10!) and now she is 178.2 pounds. Although she is still on the same diet her weight lost has stopped and i donno what to do now.. the good news is she is healthier and not putting weight on but in order for her to live better she has to loose more kg..
For your information my mom is following the diet below,
Mornings . 12-16 oz kale (or spinach), apple juice
fruits until lunch
most of the time she goes raw until dinner.. but sometimes she eats lunch ..such as salad (with olive oil and lemon juice..) and brown pasta .. ( or brown rice, bulgur etc)
Dinner salad and soup ( cooked lentil soup etc) and cooked vegetables ..
in between she is eating dried fruits or nuts ..
she is also not using any dairy or process food anymore.
***Do you have any suggestion for me to help my mom?
Thank you for reading until here and have a great day!

I think meaningful assessments can come in many shapes and sizes. It fact, to be thoroughly engaging and to draw the best work out of the students, assessments should come in different formats.
Rubrics are a beast. Grrrrrrr! They are time-consuming to construct, challenging to write and sometimes hard to use effectively. They are everywhere. There are rubrics all over the web, plus tools to create them, and as educators, it can overwhelm us. Rubrics are driven by reforms, from standards-based grading to assessment for learning. With so many competing purposes, it only makes sense that rubrics remain a beast to create and to use. Here are some (only some) tips for designing and using effective rubrics. Regardless of the reforms and structures you have in place, these can be used by all educators.
In a Buick LaCrosse crowded with English teachers on the way to a wine bar in Raleigh, Dr. Lil Brannon explained her trouble with rubrics: "Did you ever watch kids play Dance Dance Revolution, the video game where they put their feet in the right squares drawn on a mat? That doesn't look like real dancing, does it?"
In my last post, "How to Make Writing Research Papers Relevant for Students," I described an expository writing task that all our students at Envision Schools must complete. In this post, I will highlight the task of analyzing literature.

Publisher's DescriptionVampires first entered the pop culture arena with Bram Stoker's 1897 novel, Dracula. Today, vampires are everywhere. From Buffy the Vampire Slayer to the Twilight Saga to HBO's True Blood series, pop culture can't get enough of the vampire phenomenon.
Bringing her literary expertise to this timely subject, Susannah Clements reveals the roots of the vampire myth and shows how it was originally immersed in Christian values and symbolism. Over time, however, vampires have been "defanged" as their spiritual significance has waned, and what was once the embodiment of evil has turned into a teen idol and the ultimate romantic hero. Clements offers a close reading of selected vampire texts, explaining how this transformation occurred and helping readers discern between the variety of vampire stories presented in movies, TV shows, and novels. Her probing engagement of the vampire metaphor enables readers to make Christian sense of this popular obsession. Author BioEndorsements"This book is so entertaining that you might almost miss how good the theology is. Give this book to anyone you know who loves vampire stories. They will not only thank you but they will also find spiritual depths they never knew existed." --Stephen H. Webb, professor of religion and philosophy, Wabash College
Publisher's WeeklyIt's indisputable that vampires are au courant in America, but according to Clements, an associate professor at Regent University, they ain't what they used to be. In this astute survey, she argues that Christian theology, once essential to understanding the vampire, has been lost through decades of change in vampire characterization, effectively de-fanging the vampire of meaningful theological bite. Clements begins with the iconic monster Dracula, a repulsive creature who represented the power of sin and evil in the Christian metanarrative. Moving through such subsequent incarnations as the vampires of Anne Rice, Joss Whedon (in Buffy and Angel), and Charlaine Harris (the Sookie Stackhouse mysteries on which True Blood is based), Clements chronicles a gradual secularization and social acceptance of vampires. By the time Stephenie Meyer stops hearts with Edward Cullen, the vampire is no longer a grotesque cautionary tale of humanity gone wrong but the apotheosis of humanity, a beautiful angel who stands above humankind. Clements writes well and persuasively as she argues that "vampires are more than just monsters to us," demonstrating that now, as ever, the vampire represents our darkest anxieties and most ardent desires.

Bovine Tuberculosis May Pose a Threat for New Mexicans
By Whitney Jones
Las Cruces, NM – Suspicions arose that a herd of cattle in eastern New Mexico had developed Bovine Tuberculosis earlier this year. In response, United States Senator Pete Domenici and the U.S. Department of Agriculture prompted animal testing in the region. As KRWG's Whitney Jones reports, the secretary of the state's department of agriculture says consumers have nothing to worry about.

No one wanted to put it out there cause fact is Jamie and Mike didnt want to go PIHA! There was an apparent threat, which obviously every team that jumped got also, that there is a contract in place and blah blah blah. So we are stuck going PIHA and were unsuccesful in finding a way around it. So now that you know some of the details thats why it was done this way. Also we have all different people in place this season doing all things necessary to get back to the "pro" level the Glads used to be at. Dedicated coach, written promised rink time, and players financially accountable for not showing up.

January 28 - Love the One You're With: Creating a Classroom Community
By: Cynde Gregory in Effective Classroom Management
It's the first day of class. They shuffle in, spot similar life-forms, and slip in with that group. Hipsters sporting wild hair and tats, buttoned-up and serious young scholars, middle-aged moms and dads, maybe a couple of aging hippies. One or two sad souls choose spots isolated from the others; they don't want to identify with them for reasons of insecurity, arrogance, or something else.

February 23 - A Classroom Icebreaker with a Lesson that Lasts
By: Virginia Freed in Teaching and Learning
I bring a box to the first day of class — especially if it's a course with beginning students. At precisely the time class starts, I walk into the room with my box filled with random, quirky objects. I like to include a small Alf doll, a pad of Post-its, some scissors, perhaps a can of Slim-Fast, a candle, a rock, a comb, and maybe six or seven other objects indiscriminately gathered as I leave for class. As soon as I enter the room, I put the box on the table; take each article out; place it on the table; and finally, when all of them are out, return them to the box. Then I ask the students to take out a piece of paper and write down as many of the items as they can remember.

My Games |
Hi all!
I just bought Mansions of Madness and I'm eager to start. I'll be the Keeper, since I'm the most experienced gamer, already being game master in Call of Cthulhu RPG. Note: I still haven't tried the game, I'm reading the rules, so if my question is obvious I am sorry.
Since being a Keeper here is much more easier than in RPG, there is a debate in my play group that we should rotate the role so I can play as an investigator myself.
However, in the rulebook, it states that investigators are not to read the Keepers Guide, which is somewhat obvious in order to not know the stories.
How does that cope with rotating Keeper role? Is that rotation possible in the same players group or should the Keeper always be the same person? If rotation is possible, any advices on how to do it the best way possible to not spoil gameplay?
Thanks in advance

Well, each scenarios have 3 fairly different objectives and card placement. So playing objective 1A would be different then 1B or 1C.
The only thing is that if you play 1A as a Keeper, let another Keeper choose from 1B or 1C to keep the exploration interesting.
BTW, first Scenario, objective 1B is really fun!
Without Signature
Thanks. So it would be like all players to take the Keepers role in the rotation read the Keeper's manual, but do not read the scenarios part of it. The specific scenario to be played is only to be read in the fame setup, right?
Looking forward to that funny scenario, ehheheh

Any more knowledge and/or gaming experience that anyone want to add on this matter?

Yep. Keeper's role could not be as easy as it seems, because the game requires a certain attention. There were long debates about this, brilliantly summed up by MaddockKrug in a comprehensive thread (shouldn't that difficult to find out, if you're interested). Technically, the point is that if the Keeper plays aggressively (hitting the investigators as hard as he could, everytime he could) then the odds for him to loose are very, very low. The games are still very tense (I prefer this kind of games, I'm not interested in winning or losing a game, but in the challenge. Clearly, this POV is absolutely personal) - in fact, even more tense! - but some players can find this frustrating. So, my suggestion is: be careful while doing the Keeper, and try to tune to your buddies likenings (maybe discuss with them about this) in order your gaming experience is the best possible.
As for rotating the Keeper, I don't think it's a problem. The game per se is very rich, 5 scenarios with 3 plots each means you have 15 different games only in the core set. Plus, if you start adding POD and Forbidden Alchemy, the variety increases a lot. This implies that even in case they have to replay the same game (still difficult, because there are lot of things you have to decide that are able to change the items on the board, so technically every Scenario can be played more than three times) they won't probably recall their previous adventure, if you mix the Scenarios a little.
Hope you could enjoy the game, it's a great experience :-)

Hi Miriam. Welcome to Work it, Mom! We're so glad to have you here. What an awesome career you are in! It must be wonderful to have help from someone such as yourself. Sometimes it takes someone else, someone with a neutral view, to help you see the forest from the trees, huh?

Hey everyone!
I've been floating around these forums for a while now, gleaning info about veganism and overall fitness.
I've been vegan for over 2 years (3 years this march) and am trying to focus more on the health aspect of veganism and not just the ethics and activism.
I'm trying to hit 82kg from my present 72kg so I'm sure you'll see me at the bulkers corner in shock of how many calories I'm eating!

Despite Moscow's announcement, another longtime Syrian ally predicted Tuesday that Damascus will emerge triumphant from the strife.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad made that prediction in a meeting in Tehran with Syrian Prime Minister Wael Nader al-Halki, Iran's state-run Islamic Republic News Agency reported.
"We pray that chaotic situation, which certain powers have imposed against Syria, will end by Syrian nation solidarity," the president said, IRNA reported.
The events came on the same day that a video was posted online showing what it says are two Syrian military officers begging President Bashar al-Assad to set up a prisoner swap to free them from their rebel captors.
In the video, the two men say they were abducted last October by the Free Syrian Army, a loosely organized group of Syrians who have been fighting for nearly two years to oust al-Assad.
"We were captured by FSA while we were armed, and we have been treated based on the International conventions," says Gen. Brig. Ahmed Raeidi, referring to international detention laws.
Raeidi and Staff Brigadier Hussein Allouch, an engineer from the Armored Vehicles Department, are shown beseeching al-Assad -- a fellow Alawite -- to help them.
"We have been pleading with the Syrian regime to consider our release and to arrange a prisoner swap in exchange (for) 50 innocent civilians, including women, but we haven't received any response from the Syrian authorities," Raeidi says.
The Syrian government has recently engaged in prisoner swaps.
Last week, 48 Iranians who had been held hostage by Syrian rebels for five months were freed in exchange for the release of more than 2,000 government prisoners.

Sorry, this story is unavailable
You are of course rigbt ,the real crime is that Downey wasnt called up years ago,and even at 33-34 at the next RWC he is still an option imho.Remember there willbe no BOD or i suspect D;Arcy.and while Earls wil be an option at 13 ,the cupboards quite bare in regards to 12.MaybeJ. Halloran will be an option but atm McFadden imo isnt,as a starter ,as an ultility perhaps,but his young and thus has a bit of time to prove himself.The reason ive called for Trimble is quite clear,he started as a centre even in his early internationals ,has partnered BOD at international leval.offers pace and more physicalitiy than Earls or McFaddan.In the 6Ns of 2011 he was the outstanding irish back,consistantly getting over the gain line ,and scoring tries,then what do we see at the RWC him not getting starts as a winger because of Bowe and Earls,and the totaly inept D'Arcy at 12.The back line should have been 9)Reddan 10)Sexton 11)Earls 12)Trimble 13)BOD 14)Bowe and 15)Kearney Ireland can ill afford to have its inform class players not playing ,as shown by recent results
Posted 14:35 22nd June 2012
I just hope that if jet lagged Wallace ain't working that Kidney acts decisively and quickly and sticks Sexton into 12 before the match is beyond us
Posted 09:01 22nd June 2012
To have flown Downey out for this game would have been madness. But remember Downey at 31 would be only 3 years older than the now indispensible Mike Ross (who was left out in the cold for 3 seasons). Kidney should have brought Downey into the Irish set up 2 years ago, and still should, as he's an option with a different skill set to anything we have at 12 and is a true 12 as against all our other options. Over the past number of years we've seen Downey play excellently in the Premiership and adapting to that style of play with a top team in Northampton who provide many of the English team. If he can adapt like that he can certainly adapt to the Irish style as I believe he will after he gets a few games with Munster under his belt...One thing I can say is that if Wallace gets mowed down by Sonny Bill on Saturday and Ireland get obliterated we'll hear the name of Downey more than we have in a long time...he may not be the "answer" but he is an option who can actually play the position properly...
To other posters, I just don't get the calls for Trimble, Earls and McFadden at 12. None of these can play 12 with any authority. Sexton, Downey and Wallace are better. Earls can play 13 though. In the case of McFadden I just don't get him at all, he has yet to prove at international level that he can play in any position.
Posted 08:18 22nd June 2012
I'm not saying in any way that Cruden isn't a brilliant replacement for Carter, but I'm coming from the point of view that Ireland would prefer to face Cruden than Carter, who in my book is a better defender and the best fly half I've ever seen play rugby. The other aspect is experience, which I mentioned, that is with the NZ 7,9 and 10, an area where NZ usually have vast experience. For me, this an area which Ireland must put intense pressure on if we're to have any chance of winning. The other side of the coin is that if Ireland fail to presssure these 3 we could see them run riot with youthful fearlessness and witness a changing of the guard for NZ. This I do fear if Ireland don't get it right....this time!
Posted 07:38 22nd June 2012
Downey was never, even at his peak, an international standard player.
He is now 31.. and people think it would be a brilliant idea to throw him into his first full international test against NZ
How many accounts has Downey's mother created on this website? FFS
Posted 02:32 22nd June 2012
Not sure how you think Ireand have an advantage with Carter out... remember the ABs won the world cup without Carter. Aaron Cruden is the form ten in Super Rugby. New Zealand very rarely play poorly two weeks in a row, conversely Ireland rarely hit the intensity they reached last weekend.
Posted 20:18 21st June 2012
Because Zebo showed his total ineptitude maybe?
Posted 19:02 21st June 2012
Jesus Kidney you must be the only coach on the planet who would fly Paddy Wallace half way around the world for 1 test match against the Allblacks.
Why not stick McFadden at 12 with Zebo/Trimble on the wings and have Earls on the bench??
These guys were originally selected so use them before calling over replacements. Especially when the replacement is Paddy "Wobbly" Wallace who play well for Ulster but terribly for Ireland and almost cost the Grand Slam in 09!!!!
Posted 17:23 21st June 2012
Glad to see Keith Earls playing at wing! What I'd change is Paddy for sub and Trimble at 14, McFadden at 12. Also Murray needs a bit more game time on club level as he's not an international just yet. Or at least play ROG-Murray and Sexton-Reddan couples and not mix them up. Excited about the game, GWAN IRELAND!
Posted 16:02 21st June 2012
ah ehsus. does kidney hate the irish public or something. why does he persist in picking a bad team. visit the kidney clock to see how many days til he is gone
Posted 15:47 21st June 2012
I have to say ,im not optomistic about Irelands chances ,this weekend.Kidneys thinking continues to baffle me ,and id still prefer Trimble and BOD to be the centre pairing,considering Kidney just wont consider J.Downey.Nice to see Earls back in his best position wing,but still no start for Reddan,i echo other posts ,if your playing Wallace for his distribution ect ,then he needs quick ball ,and Reddan is better than Murray in that regard.Overall i just cant see Ireland wining ,even if its an under strength New Zealand ,and Irelands recent pattern of puting in just one good /excellant game per series looks to continue.But hey i was totally wrong last week so there is hope ,however slim it maybe
Posted 15:35 21st June 2012
Paddy the Wally at 12...OH GOD hahahahahaaa
Posted 14:54 21st June 2012
While I acknowledge that SOB may be better at 8 than he is at 7, its worth noting that 8 is O'Mahony's main position. Thats where he played all through schoolboys rugby, and he would play there for Munster if is wasn't for Coughlan. I have high hopes that he will do well there.
Posted 14:36 21st June 2012
From what I hear, I'd say most Irish fans expect the worst and get it every time.
you have to give it to Kidney, he's very consistent!
Posted 14:02 21st June 2012
A Woefully bad call by Kidney. To be fair on Wallace he can play well, i saw him play 10 for an irish XV last August and He was excellent, running the ball from everywhere but i think Kidneys gameplan ruins this and he cannot perform under it. McFadden should be @12. Why not select someone to tour then start him? Ridiculous. SELECT DOWNEY KIDNEY! Him against SBW would be a classic battle. and why does he insist on playing O'Mahony out of position?
Posted 13:38 21st June 2012
Best of luck Paddy
Dont agree with this call, question really will be at what stage he comes off and ROG and Sextion fill 10 and `12.
Murray better last week but as someone alluded to, the distribution of Wallace is exceptional so why is Reddan on the ball, the quicker the ball the more that distribution comes into play.
Agree Ryan and Tuohy are the future and am so glad that they will start all 3 tests. Tuohy still has some way to go to be considered a shoe in in these games but he is showing an upward trajectory.
Still 11/2 for Saturday!
Posted 12:35 21st June 2012
It seems to me that Kidney would have liked to play BOD at 12 and Earls at 13 but O' Driscoll was having none of it. And BOD is right, as he knows how good Conrad Smith is and how good he is at setting up the wings, better BOD on the canny Smith than BOD hammering into Sonny Bill all afternoon, leave that to the jet lagged Wallace.
Earls is a big improvement on the wing, his best position, and offers a threat out wide, if having a bet on an Irish try scorer take Earls if the odds are decent.
The backrow is interesting, I hope Ireland will switch Sean O' Brien to 8 if we manage to get any 5 metre scrums or ones close to the line.
With Carter out, Ireland have an advantage and need to put Aaron Smith and the light Cruden under the most intense pressure ever for 80 minutes solid and we have a chance of winning, because their 7, 9 and 10 are relatively slight and young and I believe Ireland can put them on the back foot. If this happens, NZ have little they can do from the bench to counteract it, this is crucially where the game can be won, especially with Ireland having Reddan, ROG and the abrasive Henry on the bench to add an impact that NZ cannot match.
If there is one fly in the ointment, it's the ref Poite, and as to which team's case he gets on at scrum time. In this respect, I'm worried for Ireland...But disregarding this I'm backing Ireland to take their first test against NZ as I believe Ireland believe.....For once!
Posted 12:17 21st June 2012
feel sorry for Trimble...he didn't see much of the ball last week and really deserves another shot...with D'arcy now back home, it was somewhat inevitable that Wallace would start, although I think McFadden inside B'OD and Trimble on the wing would have been better as McFadden has been exposed on several occasions when playing on the wing...
delighted to see the Ryan/Touhy combination continuing in the second row as I believe that is the future for us....here's hoping we cause an upset...
Posted 11:38 21st June 2012
I give up.
Murray starts yet again! Slow ball.
O'Brien and O'Mahony should be switched.
Trimble should start at 14 and McFadden at 12
Wallace wasn't good enough to be brought on tour originally... he should never be anywhere near the matchday 22 never mind the starting XV
Posted 11:03 21st June 2012
There's going to be a SBW shaped hole in paddy Wallace!!!

(WICHITA, Kan.)—
Crews at Mid-Continent Airport will expect a long night Wednesday into Thursday.
They'll use two big plows and special brooms to keep the runways, taxiways and ramp areas clear.
Eventhough Wichita hasn't had much snow in the last couple of years, the brooms are sometimes used to sweep off rain.
Wichita could get another several inches of snow overnight Thursday, but the equipment can handle as much as five tons of snow per hour.
Scott Loesch, maintenance superintendent, said the goal is to keep two runways open at all times.

A just-released video from the Department of Homeland Security offers many suggestions when confronted with an "active shooter," but neglects the single most effective one: resistance by armed civilians.
Teachers Flocking to Firearms Training Classes
Teachers are ignoring complaints by anti-gunners that being armed would somehow increase violence in the classroom and are instead taking firearms safety classes in increasing numbers.
Student Loan Consequences: Real, Costly, and Personal
The consequences of governmental intrusion into the private market are inevitable, painful, and costly, as students such as Nick Keith found out much too late.
New York Times Goes "Prepper"?
Is the New York Times now squarely in the camp of the "preppers"? Or is Alan Feuer's article a feint, a distraction away from efforts directed at restoring freedom?
Senator Dianne Feinstein's Gun Bill: Disingenuous Overreaction
California Senator Dianne Feinstein's bill, "The Assault Weapons Ban of 2013," is a planned overreaction to the shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, and has little chance of passing into law.
Davos' Theme of "Resilient Dynamism" Hides Real Agenda
The theme of the World Economic Forum being held in Davos, Switzerland, is the polar opposite of the results they will achieve if they are successful in reaching its goal of world government.
House Passes "No Budget, No Pay Act"
Calling it a debt limit "suspension," the House voted today to pass the "No Budget, No Pay Act," a measure that will allow the federal government to continue to spend until May 19, at which time it will consider the issue once again. It also takes away any threat of a government shutdown which the GOP initially considered as a way to force the Obama administration to agree to spending cuts. At least for the moment.
Pro-Gun Rallies Attended by Thousands at State Capitols
As a result of a social media campaign started by an airline pilot in Houston, thousands of gun owners and Second Amendment supporters rallied at their state capitols at "high noon" on Saturday to make their voices and opinions heard. The national media ignored them.
Memo to House GOP: No Debt Ceiling Increase Without Spending Cuts
The Conservative Action Project issued a memo to GOP leaders to stand firm on the debt ceiling issue and demand that the White House agree to spending cuts first. That strategy is likely to have as much success as the last debt ceiling confrontation did in 2011: None.
Resistance to the President's Gun Control Plan Continues to Build
The president's plan to usurp Second Amendment rights is already meeting increasing resistance on every level: from informed citizens and their sheriffs to the House and the Senate. His time is running out.

NM Senate Democrats Nominate Sen. Campos For Key Post
State Senate Democrats have nominated Sen. Pete Campos of Las Vegas, N.M., for the top position in the body.
The Santa Fe New Mexican reports that the action came Sunday at a closed-door caucus meeting in Belen.
Campos defeated three others in the contest to replace Senate President Pro Tem Tim Jennings, who recently lost his re-election bid.
Campos says he's honored by the nomination and plans to reach out "to every member of the Senate."
The Senate president pro tem office officially is decided by a vote of the 42 member Senate on the opening day of the session. Democrats will hold a 25-17 majority in the Senate next year, based on election results certified Friday by the canvassing board.

Hydrocephalus is too much fluid in the brain. The fluid is called cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). It is a clear fluid that normally surrounds both the spinal cord and the brain. You may be born with hydrocephalus or it develops after an injury or illness.
Hydrocephalus occurs when:
- An excess of CSF is produced (rare)
- A blockage that doesn't allow CSF to drain properly (more commonly)
These problems with the CSF may be caused by:
- Brain tumors
- Cancer in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)
- Swelling in the CSF (such as sarcoidosis )
- Cysts in the brain
- Malformations of the brain, such as:
- Brain injuries
Infections of the brain or the meninges can be caused by a number of agents including bacteria, mycobacteria, fungus, viruses, and parasites, such as:
- Encephalitis —inflammation of the brain
- Meningitis —inflammation of the membranes that cover the brain and spinal cord
- Problems with the blood vessel in the brain
- Bleeding into the brain or CSF space
Risk Factors
Risk factors for hydrocephalus include:
- Neural tube defects—problems with the development of the brain as a fetus
Mother has infection during pregnancy, such as:
- Cytomegalovirus
- Toxoplasmosis
- Lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus
- Chickenpox
- Mumps
- Brain infections
- Malformations of the brain
- Brain injuries
- Brain hemorrhage
Symptoms depend on the severity of the hydrocephalus. The extra CSF puts pressure on the brain. Symptoms may start out mild and become more severe as CSF pressure increases.
Symptoms may include:
- Headache (often worse when lying down or upon first awakening in the morning or with straining)
- Nausea / Vomiting
- Problems with balance
- Difficulty walking
- Poor coordination
- Incontinence
- Personality changes
- Confusion
- Memory problems
- Dementia in the elderly
- Coma and death
In babies, symptoms may include:
- Slow development
- Loss of developmental milestones—no longer able to do activities they once could do
- Bulging fontanelle (soft spot on the head)
- Large head circumference
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
Tests to examine the brain may include:
- Computed tomography (CT) scan —a type of x-ray that uses a computer to make pictures of the inside of the brain
- Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan —a test that uses magnetic waves to make pictures of the inside of the brain
- Ultrasound —a test that uses sound waves to examine the brain
Treatment may include:
- Shunt placement (ventriculoperitoneal shunt)—a shunt (a tube placed into the brain) allows excess CSF to drain into another area, usually the abdomen. Sometimes a temporary extraventricular drain (EVD) is placed.
- Third ventriculostomy—a hole is created in an area of the brain. It allows the CSF to flow out of the area where it is building up.
- Removal of the obstruction of CSF flow. For example: removal of tumor or cyst
- Lumbar puncture (spinal tap)—This involves the insertion of a needle between the back bones in the back to remove excess CSF.
- Medicines—In some cases, medicines, such as acetazolamide (Diamox) and furosemide (Lasix), may decrease the production of CSF.
- Other medicines such as steroids or mannitol may decrease swelling around lesions that are causing obstruction of CSF flow.
People who have risk factors for hydrocephalus should be carefully monitored. Immediate treatment might prevent long-term complications.
If you are diagnosed with hydrocephalus, follow your doctor's instructions .
There are no known ways to prevent all cases of hydrocephalus. In general:
- Get regular prenatal care.
- Keep your child's vaccines up to date.
- Protect yourself or your child from head injuries.
Certain infections in the mother during pregnancy can cause hydrocephalus in the baby. Examples of infections known to cause problems during pregnancy include:
Toxoplasmosis—foodborne illness that may be prevented by:
- Carefully cook meat and vegetables.
- Correctly clean contaminated knives and cutting surfaces.
- Avoid handling cat litter, or wear gloves when cleaning the litter box.
- Cytomegalovirus (CMV)—talk to your doctor about identifying CMV in pregnancy
- Lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCV) from pet rodents (mice, rats, hamsters)—avoid rodent contact during pregnancy
- Viruses that cause chickenpox or mumps —can be prevented with vaccinations

I suppose leadership at one time meant muscles; but today it means getting along with people. -Mohandas Gandhi I finally watched The King's Speech last night. It is an absolutely fantastic movie about a man who had to overcome a stammer and see himself as the leader he was meant to be. Many of the tactical exercises he used to build himself up were creative exercises many actors use. If you haven't seen it, then I recommend curling up and renting it. But the movie was really just a part of an on-going question that kept reoccurring throughout this past weekend. After a random two-hour long conversation with a group of elementary school teachers; a run in with an old friend who is an executive director, and dinners with friends over a good glass of wine. The question has consistently shown up is : How do we grow today's leaders? Based on the eye-opening conversations I have had over this past weekend, here are some suggestions: Creative Time The group of teachers told me how playtime had almost been completely eliminated from the day-to-day routine of their K-5th graders. One teacher stated, "If we cannot use playtime to instill creative [...]

Aug. 1 sees little effect on most Americans' health plans
Friday, 10 August 2012 00:00
Although Aug. 1 was a key date in implementation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, it simply marked the first possible date when health plans could be required to cover eight new preventive services for women — including all Food and Drug Administration-approved contraceptives.
Tax issue: How will church institutions pay for health reform?
Friday, 03 August 2012 00:00
As the head of a small evangelical college serving 2,400 undergraduates and 600 graduate students, the Rev. Philip Graham Ryken has no quarrel with contraception on religious grounds but doesn't want any part of a health insurance plan that offers certain drugs that can cause abortions.
Patience with God
Friday, 27 July 2012 13:04
There's an adage that says that an atheist is simply someone who cannot grasp metaphor. Thomas Halik, the Czech writer, would suggest rather that an atheist is someone who cannot be patient enough with God.
Days of thanks and joy: Reflections of a golden jubilarian
Friday, 27 July 2012 13:00
O happy day — 17 June 1962! This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. It is as if that first day has been extended over 50 years.
Freedom of choice and moral greatness
Friday, 27 July 2012 00:00
As the August deadline date approaches for the implementation of the conscience-crushing contraceptive health care mandate, it is hard to escape the irony of the U.S. government's recent rescue of Chinese dissident, Chen Guangcheng, for conscientiously opposing his own government's onerous fertility regulations.

The Ana BeKoach (Ana BeCoach or Ana B'Koach) prayer was written in the first century by a great kabalistic Rabbi. The prayer was written according to the seventy names of God - a term related to Abraham. The Ana BeKoach is composed of seven lines, with six words in each line. The number 6 is connected to the six directions of three-dimensional space and the number seven combined with the number six creates the structure of the seed of life. These structures contain the secret of the entire creation from them, we can produce a molecular structure and the lifestyle existing at the time of creation. This is in fact, the same mold that the Creator himself used. Another representation of the Ana Bekoach is the 7 leaf Menorah. King David meditated on this for hours before entering into battle.

We beg thee with the strength and greatness of thy right arm- Untangle our knotted fate.
Accept your people's song, elevate and purify us
Please, heroic one, those who pursue your uniqueness- guard them as the pupil of an eye.
Bless them, purify them, pity them, may your righteousness always reward them. Powerful and Holy One, in goodness lead your flock.
Unique and proud one, to your people turn, who remember your holiness.
Accept our cries, and hear our screams, oh knower of mysteries.
