New Years Resolutions 2013
Last year was challenging. From winning our first entrepreneurship competition to launching an initial product line and website, there were always 10 more projects than the money, people, or time to do them in. Luckily, we were able to grit and grind our way through the obstacles and make it to the new year - thanks, in no small part, to your encouragement and support!
So what comes next? We have a lot of exciting projects in the works for 2013. Here are a few of the big ones:
- Launching fully designed product lines
- Coming to a retailer near you
- Expanding our blog and site resources
- Adding supporting products like apparel and sports accessories

Stick Science 101: How to Find the Perfect Blade Pattern
Blade patterns play a central role in modern hockey. They are one of the few pieces of equipment that can be fully customized around an athlete's unique skill set. Traditionally named after sponsored athletes, common patterns have as many aliases as a super spy and pop up in every level of competition.
With the growing popularity of carbon fiber sticks, custom blade patterns have been relegated to the few, old school wood players. Nowadays, hockey sticks come in a handful of industry standard patterns, such as the Sakic or Modano. While these general blade variations get the job done, athletes are less likely to reap the full suite of benefits a custom blade offers.
Anyone familiar with Eleven knows how passionate we are about our custom blade options. We believe you deserve a blade specially designed to keep up with your specific style of play. But regardless of whether you are creating a custom blade pattern or choosing one from the shelf, the all-important question is how do you figure out which set of features are best suited for you? In short, it comes down to understanding the benefits of each custom option and constructing a pattern tailor made for your specific needs.

New Black Poet – Small Talk At 125th & Lenox
LP (Item 36390) Flying Dutchman, Early 70s — Condition: New Copy
Gil Scott-Heron's first album – and his angriest! Unlike some of Gil's other albums – which have a sweet jazzy vibe and a mix of mellow soul styles – this one's a lot rawer, and features Gil rapping loud over very heavy percussion backing. All the work is his own, and the album's a showcase for his brilliant protest poetry – the most famous example of which is included in "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised", which leads off the album with an especially righteous groove! The set's a key link in the African American musical tradition of the 20th century – and proof that the underground, while not always afforded a good place in the broadcast markets of the US, could always burst forth in the "narrowcast" medium of recorded music. A landmark album – one we like even better than the early work by the Last Poets – and great all the way through! Tracks include "Whitey On The Moon", "Who'll Pay Reparations On My Soul?", "The Subject Was Faggots", and "Brother". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

It is — and should always be — very moving when the president and first lady show public grief at a mournful recognition of young lives lost, especially when those lives are taken in or around public schools, at moments of particular innocence.
The Newtown, Conn., massacre claimed 20 children; they were recently joined in endless silence by just one. At 15, Hadiya Pendleton of Chicago had been a good student, a dreamer and a member of a marching band from a school called King College Prep. But then, on Jan. 29, a gangbanger shot into a group of kids and killed her. He was not held back by her having performed in Washington at events surrounding President Barack Obama's second inaugural.
Being just a mile from the Windy City home of the president did not save Pendleton; nor did being an innocent teenager (one who had appeared in an anti-gang public-service ad, sounding very radiantly optimistic) do much for her in the face of a fatal lead slug that came flying her way. Boom, splat, fall. Rushed to the hospital, pronounced dead. Over. Warm shortly before, soon cold forever.
Of course, something must be done about all of this violence, which the president spoke of in a passionate conclusion to his State of the Union address. Very good, but there is more we have to face and handle. There is a problem just as serious as the murder of children, whether in cities or suburbs. It is the problem of intellectual genocide that largely defines our public schools.
As with guns, the numbers are staggering but much, much larger. Intellectual genocide is so thorough a problem that even the energy giant Exxon Mobil — in a naked bid for positive publicity that might sop up the disaster remembered in the Gulf — runs ads about improving our education as part of its "Let's Solve This" campaign. The problem that needs to be solved? America having fallen into the middle of the pack in education compared with its peers around the world. China and India are leaving us in the dust, covered with the footprints of better-prepared runners.
Though many snicker about New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's weight being a huge obstacle to his presidential nomination, the Obama administration could learn some things from his battle with the Garden State's powerful teachers unions.
Back in 2011, Christie told ABC News' Diane Sawyer exactly how he felt about a labor group that put its own interests before those of children: "I believe the teachers in New Jersey in the main are wonderful public servants that care deeply. But their union, their union [leaders] are a group of political thugs." It was a smart and accurate move to separate the teachers from those who speak for them, and so often make obnoxious demands that put students behind the interest of union leadership power.
Now, Obama and his education secretary, Arne Duncan, have had some successes, like the Race to the Top program, which gives funding to states that use data to increase accountability and give more power to parents by opening more charter schools. And across the nation, states are using more rigorous means to evaluate teachers, no longer content to hand out raises for seniority alone.
Christie just happens to be the most vociferous opponent of the intellectual genocide that Condoleezza Rice once called "the civil-rights struggle of our day." She knows what she is talking about, having ascended from segregated Birmingham, Ala., to Stanford University — and from there to become one of George W. Bush's closest foreign-policy advisers. But this civil-rights movement is beyond color, with our public schools failing to do more than a mediocre job when assigned to increase the skills of students, across all lines of division.
Ignorance remains the deadliest force of all. But there are, sure enough, bright lights of hope in the very same communities that are often plagued by gun violence. I have long written about — and will continue to write about — the Harlem Educational Activities Fund, which helps so-called kids of color get to college and stay there until they graduate.
Praise also is due to Eva Moskowitz, whose Success Academy network has expanded out from Harlem to offer opportunities to ever more children around New York — even as she meets with opposition from misguided supporters of the teachers union, like the NAACP.
Guns, schools — these are not easy battles to fight. But we must fight them. For the children of Newtown. For Hadiya Pendleton. We need to step up.

Up to now the database has been reserved for OIE Headquarters staff and available solely via the Organizations intranet but, in January 2011, a more user-friendly version will feature on the new OIE website. So far the new version contains around 5,000 documents emanating from OIE activities between 1921 and 2010 (OIE publications and joint publications). The new database features a system for searching the following documents by keyword (subject, language, source, year and author), in many instances providing access to the full text: " All monographs published by the OIE. " All OIE periodical publications, including: o articles from the Scientific and Technical Review since it was first published in 1981; o OIE animal health standards; o technical items presented to the World Assembly of Delegates. " General session reports. " Resolutions and recommendations adopted by the Regional Commissions and the World Assembly of Delegates since 1924. " Reports from the various OIE commissions, working groups and ad hoc groups.

Short for infimum. In mathematics, the infimum of a set is the greatest element (not necessarily in the subset) that is less than or equal to all elements of the subset. Also called greatest lower bound. The infimum of the set of positive real numbers is 0, even though 0 is not positive. This is because 0 is the biggest number that is less than every positive number.

Two Anderson County High School runners qualified for the state cross country meet Saturday.
CRESTWOOD – Anderson County learned a football lesson, then gave one right back at South Oldham High School on Friday night.
Down 37-10 heading into the fourth quarter, the Bearcats scored 28 unanswered points for a 38-37 win in Class 5A, District 4 football action.
CRESTWOOD – It was apparent that Lazarus had some company Friday night, but it was still good to make sure.
And exhale.
Maybe check the carotid for a pulse. Exhale some more. Breathe deeply. Reach out and shake someone's hand or do something, anything, that reassures reality and that your mind, and body, is still in good working order.
Winning a football game 38-37 when you were behind 37-10 with 12 minutes to play will do that to you, you know.

Tax credit provides stability for British film says Parfitt Oscar-winning producer David Parfitt (Shakespeare In Love) has said that the stability of the tax credit in the UK has been fantastic for British filmmakers and marked a positive period for the industry, according to the Hollywood Reporter. Speaking at a BAFTA panel event in London last night, Parfitt noted the importance of the tax incentive, which is guaranteed until at least 2015. However, he added that he believed it was equally hard now to make films in Britain as an independent film producer as it was 20 years ago.

Update Your Urology Coding Practice With These Expert Audio Conferences
Bladder neck surgeries are commonplace for many urologists. But just because your urologist performs many of these procedures, that doesn't mean the coding is a piece of cake. For example: Do you know how to report a Leadbetter -Tenago operation? See how your coding stacks up with the experts' by testing your hand at coding this case study.
Having expert advice about the hottest urology topics like this means you can boost your coding accuracy, decrease denials, and safeguard your payments. That's why you should keep yourself current with urology audio conferences.
You'll find such conference topics as:
Urology Coding: Top Money Losers
Check out the proper coding for many urological services that historically represent frequent money losers. -
Preparing Your Urology Practice for ICD-10
Warning: You won't always have a one-to-one relationship between ICD-9 and ICD-10 codes. Find out how to start preparing your documentation right now. -
Uro Gynecolgy Coding Update for 2012
Are you still facing issues with 2012 changes in urogynecological coding and bundling? Understanding of the new and proper coding for all the urogynecology procedures is necessary to earn the reimbursement dollars that you rightfully deserve. Without this knowledge of coding and new diagnoses and with the increase in the performance of these procedures there can be a substantial loss of entitled revenues. - And more!
Bottom line: You don't have time to weed through the never-ending onslaught of information about urology coding and coverage, so let us do it for you.

Birthday biscuits for school recipe
Serving Size:
20 - 24
After school snacks, Biscuits and cookies, Cake stall, Cakes & Baking, Easy recipes, Kids cooking, Kids food, Lunch box, Birthday cakes
- 1 packet Marie biscuits
- 2 cups icing sugar
- red and blue food colouring
- 1 packet pink and white marshmallows
- sprinkles or coloured sugar crystals
- 1 packet Freddo frogs
Place icing sugar in a bowl, add 1-2 teaspoons of water to make a smooth spreadable paste. Transfer half the icing to another bowl. Colour one bowl with red colouring and one with blue (my daughter helped me with this so we had very strong colours!). Spread half the Marie biscuits with pink icing. Cut marshmallows in half, press the cut side into the sprinkles or sugar crystals and then place sprinkle-side up on a biscuit. You need four marshmallow halves per biscuit.
For the Freddo biscuits, spread the blue icing on the remaining Marie biscuits and top with a frog. Leave for 30 minutes for the icing to set and then store in an air-tight container. These can be prepared the night before you are taking them to school.
- My daughter's Kindergarten has a strict policy of only allowing chocolate frogs as birthday treats. Avoids many allergy issues. However, the restrictions are less at my son's primary school, increasing the level of input required by me! These biscuits have maximum WOW factor for minimum effort.
