The US EPA has a volunteer program where law students are employed to perform primarily legal research and writing to support counseling and enforcement work at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA), Office of Regional Counsel (ORC) in Chicago. Region 5 has one of the strongest enforcement records in U.S.
EPA. The large number of attorneys (about 105) in ORC often means exposure to a variety of work and cases.
The work includes enforcement cases brought under the federal environmental statutes. These are the same statutes typically covered in the basic environmental law course, so the externship is a chance to put into practice what the extern has already learned or will be learning shortly.
There are positions available for Fall, Spring and Summer sessions. For more information on our office, applicants may visit our web-site at www.epa.gov/Region5/ORC.
As of October 16th, 2L's can apply for $4500 summer internships at public interest organizations through the Public Interest Law Initiative www.pili-law.org.

Lemon is used medicinally to treat asthma, bronchitis, colds, fever, gallstones, headache, indigestion, obesity and neuritis. It helps cleanse the liver, stimulating bile production and helps lower cholesterol. The juice of half a lemon in a glass of warm water is a great way to start the day, as opposed to coffee.
Lemons contain limonene, which is used to dissolve gallstones and is being researched for its anticancer properties. Limonene is more prevalent in the white inner portion of the lemon rind. Lemons are high in vitamin C, potassium and improve in the assimilation of minerals.
The juice of half a lemon in a cup of warm water can be used as a gargle for sore throats. Lemon juice can be applied topically to calm itchy insect bites, pimples, corns, warts, boils and poison ivy. Though it might sting, can be used as an antiseptic agent on cuts. Lemon juice saturated into a cotton ball and applied inside one nostril can stop a nosebleed. The strained juice of a lemon added to the final rinse water refreshes the scalp and promotes shiny hair. Lemon juice has been used to lighten stains (ink, fruit, rust) on fabric.
The high acidity of lemons makes them unsuitable for sucking on, as it can damage dental enamel. Lemon helps fluidify the blood and so should be used cautiously by people that are overly thin, weak and irritable.
Add lemon juice to fruits and vegetables to preserve their color. Substitute lemon juice for vinegar in salad dressings. Lemons that are tinged with green are likely to be more acidic. Thick-skinned lemons will have less juice than thin-skinned varieties. Adding grated lemon rind to food gives a zesty flavor. But choose organic, commercial lemons often are wax coated.

Let's talk about the weather. We average about 36 inches of rain per year in northcentral Ohio. We have had above normal rainfall in 2011 to the tune of more than 10 inches. There are so many issues for cropland having this much rain, especially in the fall. Soils can only hold so much water before they start ponding and causing harvest issues. Soil compaction will be an issue next spring because of the machinery being in crop fields when the soils were still too wet. The wetness and a late harvest also means less time to put in cover crops.
If there is a silver lining to the issues surrounding wet soils in the fall, it would be less fall tillage. There is much less fall tillage this year than last and consequently we will not have the tremendous erosion that we had in the spring of 2011.
Community Supported Agriculture is a growing trend in directly connecting producers with consumers who value local food production. Here in Ashland, there are several local farm markets that are available for the public to buy locally grown food and other products. Local producers have great opportunities with these markets, as well as several produce auctions available in neighboring counties where individuals and retail buyers can buy locally grown food.
Local Roots is an organization that has been setting up downtown in the old Gilbert's warehouse Saturdays this fall. Its mission is to "establish a year-round market place" for their locally grown food and other ag-related products. Hopefully, the community can continue to support these markets.
What are high tunnels? A high tunnel is garden area covered with a polyethylene structure where you can walk through, grow vegetables and other produce. The structure provides a greenhouse-like controlled atmosphere for growers who may want to extend the growing season. As soon as it warms above freezing in March, they are ready to plant tomatoes and will be growing leafy vegetables well into November.
This is a great way for a small farmer to supplement his income and contribute to these local farm markets. NRCS has been able to assist with these structures through the EQIP program by providing cost incentives.

A massive experimental drone designed by Boeing Co. engineers to fly for up to four days at a time completed its first test flight above the Mojave Desert at Edwards Air Force Base.
The drone, called Phantom Eye, and its hydrogen-fueled propulsion system have the potential to vastly expand the reach of military spy craft. The longest that reconnaissance planes can stay in the air now is about 30 hours.
In the test flight, which took place Friday, the Phantom Eye circled above Edwards at about 4,080 feet above Edwards for 28 minutes. After touching down, the vehicle had problems when the landing gear dug into the lake bed and broke.
The Chicago-based company said engineers are assessing the damage but added that they plan on putting the Phantom Eye through more demanding test flights in the future.

Samsung starts to sell 64GB flash drives (Engelska)
The another small milestone in the hunt for a capacity has been just achieved: Samsung rolls out its highest capacity 1.8? flash SSD. Back in March, Samsung announced its 64GB flash Solid State Disk (SSD). The 1.8? unit promised read speeds of 65MB/sec and write speeds of 45MB/sec. Samsung today revealed that it has started mass production of its new drive. The 64GB SSD uses 64 eight gigabit single-level cell (SLC) flash memory chips which are built on a 51 nanometer manufacturing process. ?We see sharply increasing interest in SSDs among OEMs worldwide amid a growing push to launch premium SSD-based notebooks, particularly in the ultra-mobile category,? said Jim Elliott, director, flash marketing, Samsung Semiconductor, Inc.
Samsung?s 64GB SSD will likely appear at online retailers and inside ultra-portable notebooks (and UMPCs) within the coming weeks and months. SSDs have the advantage of low power consumption, low weight, durability, silent operation and high performance. These advantages are expected to allow SSDs to account for 29 percent of ultra-portable notebooks and 25 percent of mainstream notebooks according to iSuppli. The benefits afforded by SSDs are offset by one major deficit: pricing. 1.8? SSD are currently around five times more expensive than their 1.8? HDD counterparts. By the year 2010, that differential is expected to only drop to three times as expensive. For those that simply can?t wait for the 1.8? 64GB SSDs to arrive, the older and slower 32GB version (53MB/sec reads, 30MB/sec writes) is available online for the princely sum of $529.

Southern Baptists
HOUSTON (AP) — The Southern Baptist Convention has re-elected its first black president, the Rev. Fred Luter Jr.
Luter was first elected in 2012. His presidency comes at a time when the nation's largest Protestant denomination is trying to move beyond its traditional white Southern base.
The Southern Baptist Convention claims 16 million members, but recently announced that membership declined in 2012 for the sixth straight year.
Luter was re-elected on Tuesday during the convention's annual meeting in Houston. He was unopposed and received a standing ovation.
Southern Baptist presidents can serve a maximum of two one-year terms.

|This article provides information on "Modular Disk Storage Manager (MDSM) displays Timeout Events on a Dell PowerVault MD3000".
Timeout on physical disk side of RAID controller module events are logged in the
Modular Disk Storage Manager (MDSM) Major Event Log (MEL).
The event type is 100D, the category is Error, and the Component Type is Physical Disk.
No physical disk address is given.
These events are informational and generally occur when the hard disks
are involved in heavy input/output (I/O) activity.
The timeout events provide no critical information and are simply informational.
For proper analysis, events should be filtered by critical events only.
The timeout event indicates failed attempts to abort a task by the alternate controller.
Bandwidth limitations for passing the abort task requests to the alternate controller
cause this to occur during periods of heavy I/O activity.

Friday 14th December 2012
After a night of never-ending rain, we woke up this morning to find it still raining, and it rained all day too, not hard, but steady and drenching, and humid as well. The Carols by Candlelight won't be on the village green tonight, way too wet, which is a shame, it's one of my favourite nights of the year.
I ventured into Target at lunchtime for a few last minute family gifts ready for the weekend, woah! Never again! It was bedlam, the line at the registers was nearly out the door.
So glad that the week is over, it was a busy day today. I asked Mike what he did today, anything out of the unusual? Hmm nope. He said "I bound reeds in the morning, I tuned reeds in the afternoon, then I stamped the reeds after that". Yep, just another day at the office for him. He did however turn into the mad scientist late afternoon making up some more of his home brew.
So the Carols ended up at the Soldiers' Memorial Hall. Firstly the fact that the Masons were not organising it this year was nice, in that I was actually going to get to sit through the concert with Mike, instead of him running around with a clipboard here, there and everywhere. But the new organisers lost control of the concert pretty early in, it was a fairly ordinary night, no singing along. We slipped out before santa arrived at 9.30pm, because we knew it would be mass chaos then, the children were getting restless. We did get to sit and relax with Tony and Jen, and catch up with a few friends in the hall so all was not lost.
Right now, it's late, I'm journalling this page so it's fresh as it's happening, Mike is lounging on the couch watching Lord of the Rings.
And ... it's still raining!

ResearchToBeDone connects high school bullying to Atheism+ conflicts. It's time to call out the adult bullies tearing at our community.
The Problem Is Not a Lack of Civility
The skeptic community has a problem with bullies. It has problems with misogyny, racism, trans phobia, all in addition to the usual problems that plague any burgeoning movement. There are people in the skeptic movement who have spent a lot of time talking about ways to heal the "deep rifts" in our community recently.
The reality is that some people ... when dealt with civilly, will reflect that civility back, and engage in productive discussion, and some will not. Some people will not engage civilly with anyone who holds different ideas than they do.
What everyone needs to acknowledge, right now, is that while sometimes civility is an effective way to encourage productive discussion, it will never work against people who are not interested in productive discussion, and there are a lot of people in our community right now who have proven, repeatedly, that they are not interested in productive discussion.
These people's hearts are not going to grow three sizes because ... we stop calling misogyny misogyny,...
There doesn't seem to be anyone left in the atheist community who thinks that if we are just polite enough to the conservative religious right, they will start engaging in reasonable ways. How people can see how absurd that idea is with respect to extreme religious conservatives, but fail to see how absurd it is with respect to some of the blatant bullying and misogyny that has been going on in our community recently is, frankly, utterly baffling to me.

Relevant to a lot of sexism being invisible to men: Mark Chu-Carroll's article "A White Boy's Observations of Sexism and the Adria Richards Fiasco"
I agree with Crommunist that this piece is required reading. Some snippets:
(italics in original; bolding is mine)
See, I'm a white guy, born as a member of an upper middle class white family. That means that I'm awfully lucky. I'm part of the group that is, effectively, treated as the normal, default person in most settings. [...] our society is deeply sexist and racist. [...] It's so deeply ingrained in us that we don't even notice it. [...]
It's very easy for a member of an empowered majority to just take things for granted. We see the way that we are treated as a default, and assume that everyone is treated the same way. We don't perceive that we are being treated preferentially. We don't notice that the things that offend us are absolutely off limits to everyone, but that things that we do to offend others are accepted as part of normal behavior. Most importantly, we don't notice when our behavior is harmful to people who aren't part of our empowered group. And when we do offend someone who isn't part of the empowered majority, we take offense at the fact that they're offended. Because they're saying that we did something bad, and we know that we aren't bad people!
[...] Many people have looked at what happened at PyCon, and said something like "She shouldn't have tweeted their picture", or "She shouldn't have been offended, they didn't do anything wrong", or "She should have just politely spoken to them".
I don't know whether what she did was right or not. I wasn't there. I didn't hear the joke that the guys in question allegedly told. What I do know is that for a member of the minority out-group, there is frequently no action that will be accepted as "right" if it includes the assertion that the majority did something offensive.
I've seen this phenomena very directly myself, not in the context of sexism, but in terms of antisemitism. There's an expression that I've heard multiple times in the northeast US, to talk about bartering a price for a car: "jewing the salesman down". I absolutely find that extremely offensive. And I've called people out on it. There is no response that's actually acceptable.
If I politely say "You know, that's relying on a stereotype of me and my ancestors that's really hurtful", the response is: "Oh, come on, it's just harmless. I'm not talking about you, it's just a word. You're being oversensitive". If I get angry, the response is "You Jews are so strident". If I go to an authority figure in the setting, "You Jews are so passive aggressive, why couldn't you just talk to me?". No matter what I do, I'm wrong. Women deal with this every day, only they're in a situation where the power dynamic is even less in their favor.
This part is central to why majority groups don't perceive themselves as bullying while they're bullying.
Most importantly, we don't notice when our behavior is harmful to people who aren't part of our empowered group. And when we do offend someone who isn't part of the empowered majority, we take offense at the fact that they're offended. Because they're saying that we did something bad, and we know that we aren't bad people!
... for a member of the minority out-group, there is frequently no action that will be accepted as "right" if it includes the assertion that the majority did something offensive.
I keep seeing it over and over. Thanks for sharing this GrinningCat!
Ruth, I understand those who feel strongly, bully others in expressions of disagreement. I, obviously, am one capable of bullying. If I offend you or anyone on this site, please do challenge me. It is not my intention to bully, but to get people thinking. Bullying isn't a good strategy and is counterproductive, however, even my heroes of the civil rights movement were accused of bullying when they described and defined issues facing them. Standing firmly on principles, speaking out powerfully, taking action to confront is different than bullying and I do NOT intend to bully.
Looking a person straight in the eye and expressing disagreement, even in face of accusations of bullying, is not justification for ending the look and statement. Accusations are tactics to stop a confrontation. Don't fall for that ploy.
Gee, this sounds so strident! I don't mean it that way. I mean to say I want to work at being a better advocate and seek to participate with others to accomplish goals of individual responsibility.
Something worth sharing: The Microagressions Project
(short reports of the frequent "small" encounters that wear away at, exclude and oppress social "others" of all kinds, including women)
Thank Grinning Cat! This is an effective tool.
Here is one I hear often and it is listed on your Microagressions Project.
"You won't achieve equality by not knowing how to take a joke."
Response: "That's how you DO achieve equality. By NOT taking it."
I like that.
This one, currently on the top line of story blocks, ties in with Tony Porter's "A call to men" (to break free of the "man box", and teach boys that they can and should be whole people, partners rather than dominators):
"Stop crying and acting like a little girl!"
My sister to her 4 year old son, who has a twin sister.
(So girls are "less than", or "can't help it"? We somehow don't hear anyone telling a young girl to "stop acting like a little boy!")
Over and over, in online comments sections I've seen people pile on, all saying roughly the same thing.
Anyone who disagrees will get swamped with negative comments, and where personal comments are allowed, the impact of that is even worse.
This seems like a consequence of the structure of the internet. A vast number of people can see something that's posted online. If you say something in person, you will only get one or two responses. If you say it in a book, responses are limited by snailmail.
Also, online discourse seems to favor black-and-white partisan thinking and emotional rhetoric.
For example, I've been attracted to skeptic blogs on alternative medicine. While I agree that there's a lot of quackery, I would have been tremendously helped by taking some complementary medicine more seriously - realizing that anecdotal reports and doctors' clinical experience can be accurate - and the skeptic blogs are dominated by people who haven't been seriously affected by problems that mainstream medicine does little for, as I have - so they are completely dismissive of complementary medicine.
A/N is better that way, which is why I'm here. But it certainly still has such problems.
The technological framework of discourse affects the discourse greatly.

Time clock in Hamlin Township
Hamlin Township soon will begin using a time clock to keep track of the hours worked by its three full-time employees-- two in the Public Works Department and the township secretary-treasurer.Many factories use timeclocks use keep tabs on the hours worked by employees. But there could be issues with a township, especially the road crew. The workers apparently will be required to "punch" in before they begin plowing roads in the early morning hours. Will this mean they need to walk through snow to access the timeclock before starting the engine in the snowplow at the township shed just down the road? If they go first to the plow, they won't be recorded as working.

Tony Iommi turns 65 on February 19. The Black Sabbath rifflord is a legend of rock guitar, having a huge influence on heavy metal and all riff-rock for over four decades. The title of his autobiography, Iron Man – My Journey Through Heaven and Hell, is also well-named: Iommi recently had to undergo cancer treatment to finish recording the new Black Sabbath album due summer 2013.
You'll know the numerous classic riffs Tony Iommi has written. But what about the man himself? Here are 10 things you may not know about Tony Iommi.
He grew a mustache because of spiders and fireworks
As a child, Iommi was scared of spiders. A boy neighbor – "Bobby Nuisance, which is the right name for him," recalled Iommi in 2011's book Iron Man – collected large spiders, and once chased Iommi down the street with them. "I was s**tting myself and running down this gravel road when I tripped, so all the gravel went into my face and along my lip. The scar is still there now. The kids even started calling my Scarface, so I got a terrible complex about that." Later, Iommi even had a "sparkler" firework go off in his face. "As soon as I could, I grew a mustache."
And yet, here's Sabbath at 1974's California Jam with Iommi clean-shaven.
He lost his fingertips on his last day of work
Most know that Iommi lost the tips of two fretting fingers in an industrial accident. But it was actually in the final hours of his final day working. The young Tony was a welder, joining together components that a fellow woman worker bent into shape. But the woman wasn't in work that day, so Iommi had to take over the pressing machine. He'd never done it before, and this was last afternoon at the factory. He didn't even want to return after lunch, but his mother insisted.
An afternoon accident then ripped the tips off his middle and ring finger: "The bones were sticking out of them. There was blood everywhere. I was so much in shock it didn't even hurt at first."
Iommi likes jazz
When he injured his fingers, gypsy-jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt became a huge inspiration. The Belgian had badly burned two of his fingers in a fire, but continued playing, and his never-say-die example gave Iommi the inspiration to continue. Iommi is also a keen fan of Joe Pass and Wes Montgomery – listen to the middle-8 guitar octaves of "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath."
Led Zeppelin's John Bonham was one of his best friends
"John was a good friend, best man at my first wedding, and he liked us," says Iommi. "Sabbath jammed through "Supernaut" [from 1972 Sabbath album Vol. 4] with John on drums once. John loved that track. Though we ended up just jamming 12-bar blues at the end. "Supernaut" got too complicated for John! He was going all over the place."
Iommi "Invented" Ultra-Light Gauge Strings
After Iommi lost his fingertips he had to apply thimbles to extend his two damaged fingers. Originally, he self-made the thimbles with the plastic bottle caps of Fairy dishwashing liquid (think Dawn, in the U.S.) His thimbles are now leather. But regular strings were still too painful too play. He bought banjo strings and used the lightest for B and high E. "This way, I managed to get rid of the low E string, using an A string instead." Iommi tried to persuade string manufacturers to make such a "complete" set but most told him, "Nobody's ever going to buy them." He wasn't successful until the U.K's Picato company agreed in 1970.
Iommi's strings had a .008" gauge for the top E. Jimmy Page, Brian May and Billy Gibbons have all since used .008" top E strings. Compare that with Stevie Ray Vaughan, Pete Townshend and Malcolm Young from AC/DC who all use (or used) .012″ or heavier.
Iommi says he's been told by producers that he needed a set of thick strings to get a big sound. "I've never used a set of thick strings and I do have a big sound."
For D# (root) tuning, his gauges are .008, .008, .011 (unwound), .018 .024, and .032. For C# tuning, he uses .009, .010, .012 (unwound), .020, .032 and .042.
Iommi is a motorhead
Iommi is a car lover. When he got his driving licence in his late teens, he immediately bought an MGB sports car. He crashed it soon after, though, smashing into trees. "It all happened in slow motion. It sounds mad, but I saw three figures come down, one to the left and two to the right, like angels. And I thought, this is it… Everyone who saw the car said, 'you should have been killed.'"
His young and reckless driving didn't deter him. He later bought a Maserati, a Lamborghini, a Rolls-Royce and numerous other flash autos. He later sold his Rolls-Royce to Osbourne, even though Ozzy couldn't even drive. Ozzy's then-wife would drive the singer around, with Ozzy's dogs in the back.
Iommi blew up Richard Branson's fish!
Ozzy Osbourne is always known as Black Sabbath's crazy one. But Iommi has had his moments. With new vocalist Ian Gillan, Sabbath recorded 1983's Born Again album at The Manor Studios in Oxfordshire, owned by record-mogul Richard Branson. For reasons only known to the ex-Deep Purple singer, Gillan wanted to stay in a marquee outside the residential studios. Seeking fun, Iommi and the rest of Sabbath got together spare pyrotechnics from their band's last tour and put them around the singer's canvas abode. On detonation, they successfully destroyed Gillan's garden hideout, but his tent was pitched near Branson's private lake – Iommi's firebomb stunt also killed / maimed many of Branson's prize carp. "He was not happy at all," Iommi remembers, with typical dryness.
Iommi was asked to write the score for "A Nightmare on Elm Street"
Tony got as far as reading the script and meeting with producers of the 1984 slasher movie, but his manager then asked for a higher fee as it disrupted his Sabbath work. The project fell through. But one track written, "Nightmare," turned up on Black Sabbath's 1987 album The Eternal Idol.
Iommi Has Recorded With Over 20 Singers
In Jethro Tull, it was Ian Anderson. In Black Sabbath, it's been Ozzy Osbourne, Ronnie James Dio, Ian Gillan, Ray Gillen, Glenn Hughes and Tony Martin. On his 2000 "solo" album Iommi, he wrote and recorded with Henry Rollins, Skunk Anansie's Skin, Dave Grohl, Pantera's Phil Anselmo, System Of A Down's Serj Tankian, Billy Corgan, The Cult's Ian Astbury, Type O Negative's Peter Steele, Billy Idol and Ozzy. For Rock Aid Armenia's version of "Smoke on the Water," Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson and Free's Paul Rodgers sang. You can add quite a few others, such as Cathedral's Lee Dorian – Iommi guested on their 1995 album The Carnival Bizarre. Iommi still reportedly still has unreleased Iommi tracks with Corgan, Idol and Anselmo. Weirdest singer? Iommi once auditioned Michael Bolton to front Black Sabbath, after Dio had finally left.
His Friendship with Ozzy Osbourne
Ozzy and Tony's relationship has sometimes been tense, but they remain close friends through their music and good humor. As Ozzy joked over Iommi's recent cancer scare, "If he dies, I'll kill him."
Have a look at the Epiphone Tony Iommi G-400 and Gibson's Tony Iommi Signature Humbucker pickup.

Boom Goes the Dynamite: 03.01.09 EditionPosted by nvr1983 on March 1st, 2009
Well it's finally here. The month of March is upon us. Here at RTC, we'll be coming up with a ridiculous number of posts (I'm not sure how we will be able to do it with our other "lives") so be sure to check back throughout the month as we will have posts for conference recaps, our unique bubble watch, frequent bracket updates by our resident bracketologist Zach, our favorite NCAA tournament memories, and the most comprehensive NCAA tournament preview anywhere. Ever.
11:00 AM: Just to set the table for today (and before I run out to grab some lunch before the games start), we'll be following all three of the major games today, which will all be on CBS. At noon, Dominic James-less #10 Marquette will travel to #6 Louisville. Then at 2 PM, #8 Missouri will travel to Lawrence to take on the defending national champs, #15 Kansas. (CBS will also be airing the Tennessee-Florida game at 2. We will be very unhappy if we end up with that game instead.) The last time these teams met, Missouri shocked the Jayhawks with a Zaire Taylor 10-footer to hand Kansas its only loss in their last 13 games. A win here for Kansas would essentially seal the Big 12 regular season title for Kansas since they own the tie-breaker over Oklahoma (thanks to Blake Griffin's absence). Finally at 4 PM, #9 Michigan State will go to #20 Illinois. Like the preceding game, a win here would essentially clinch the Big 10 regular season title for the Spartans. In addition, we will be following the aforementioned UT-UF game (hopefully online instead of on our TVs) as well as a handful of bubble match-ups (Providence at Rutgers, Cincinnati at Syracuse, Michigan at Wisconsin, and West Virginia at South Florida).
11:50 AM: If any of you are wondering if I might decide to ditch this and go outside to enjoy the beautiful March weather, here's your answer. On a side note, I just saw myself on ESPN for the second time this season (thanks to the miracle of HD).
11:55 AM: Wow. I just saw the Blake Griffin play from yesterday where we went over the scorer's table. Pretty impressive after his concussion against Texas.
Noon: CBS just announced they will be have an interview with Jamie Dixon at halftime. So the Pittsburgh fans might want to tune in for that if a top 10 match-up in their own conference wasn't enough.
12:05 PM: Rick Pitino is wearing his Colonel Sanders suit for the white out. As the CBS guys mentioned, last year he had to switch at halftime. Let's see if it is more effective this year.

IP address subranges within this IP range
IP address ranges, or netblocks, are groups of related IP addresses. They are usually represented as a base IP address, followed by a slash, and then a netmask which represents how many IP addresses are contained within the netblock. This format is known as CIDR. You'll also sometimes see netblocks given as a start ip address, and an end ip address, or an ip address range.
Traffic works its way around the internet based on the routing table, which contains a list of networks and their associated netblocks.

Birth is usually such a joyous time, but for the family of one Michigan woman, the recent birth of her twin sons was terribly bittersweet.
At the time of the birth, 26-year-old Christine Bolden was already brain dead from two aneurysms, discovered only after she had collapsed in a parking lot, but doctors kept her on a respirator for a month to allow the babies to continue to develop, reports the Associated Press. When her blood pressure got too high, doctors delivered brothers Nicholas and Alexander Bolden via C-section at just 25 weeks gestation, and their mother was removed from life support and died. At their birth on April 5, the boys weighed less than two pounds and were just six inches long, according to WOOD-TV. They remain on ventilators at a children's hospital.

A doctor who specializes in high-risk pregnancies at University of Michigan Hospital, Dr. Cosmas Vandeven, acknowledged that cases like this were a tough call from an ethical standpoint. He told the AP, "Almost every parent would give their life for their child. But you need to get truly independent opinions: Are we sure we're not causing harm to the mom?"
Danielle Bolden, Christine's aunt, told WOOD-TV, "God coulda took her and the boys, but He left the boys. That's a miracle."
What do you think of this incredible and tragic tale?

President Obama will reveal his budget proposal to Congress tomorrow. He recently proposed a $302 billion dollar transportation bill to fix the nation's crumbling infrastructure.
The funds would help replenish the nation's Highway Trust Fund, which is expected to run out before the end of the year.
Kara Kockelman, professor of transportation engineering at the University of Texas at Austin, joins Here & Now's Meghna Chakrabarti to talk about the federal gas tax and other measures that can be taken to fund the country's disintegrating infrastructure.
- Kara Kockelman, transportation engineering professor at the University of Texas at Austin.
It's HERE AND NOW.
And the long, cold winter is wreaking havoc on roadways across much of the nation. But that isn't the main reason why President Obama visited St. Paul, Minnesota, last week to unveil his $302 billion transportation bill.
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: Part of the reason I'm focused on this is Congress has an important deadline coming up. If Congress doesn't finish a transportation bill by the end of the summer, we could see construction projects stop in their tracks, machines sitting idle, workers off the job.
CHAKRABARTI: Now, the president is referring there to the September 30th deadline to renew federal funding for transportation programs, much of which comes from the Highway Trust Fund, which helps pay for road and bridge projects but is expected to be insolvent before the end of the year. Revenues for the Highway Trust Fund come from the federal gas tax, but that's not the only way to pay for the nation's transportation infrastructure.
Let's explore some other ideas with Kara Kockelman, professor of transportation engineering at the University of Texas at Austin. And, Professor Kockelman, let's start with the Highway Trust Fund. It was created in 1956. Explain how it could fall into insolvency now.
KARA KOCKELMAN: Well, the gas tax is per gallon of fuel that we consume. And for the last 20 years, it's been flat at the federal level at 18.4 cents per gallon for gasoline. It's slightly higher for diesel, and then each state adds it own portion, and those can vary dramatically. From Alaska, 10 cents per gallon, to California at another 50 cents per gallon. And so if the federal portion doesn't rise, then the Highway Trust Fund can go insolvent. And we're driving more efficient vehicles as our corporate average fuel economy goes up. And with the recession, it was a drop in actual travel that we were seeing. So it's definitely possible.
CHAKRABARTI: And there also seems to be, overall, just a huge political lack of incentive to do anything to raise the gas tax. It seems very hard to do so. It hasn't been raised since 1993.
KOCKELMAN: Right. And yet it's such a small portion of what we pay to own and operate a car. It's about two and a half cents per mile. Of course, electric vehicle operators that are electrifying all their miles, they're going to pay zero per mile. And big SUVs might pay 45 cents a mile if they're very fuel inefficient. And, of course, heavy duty trucks pay a lot, and those vehicles do a lot of damage to the pavement, so they're the ones that we design the pavements for.
CHAKRABARTI: Right. Let's look beyond that. Let's look at what else is possible if the gas taxes can't be raised in Washington. Some states are running, for example, pilot pay-per-mile programs where you would pay for every mile that you drive on state and federal roads. Tell me a little bit more about that.
KOCKELMAN: It's just a user fee much like the gas tax, which was checking gallons of gasoline and was nicely proportional in many ways to kind of impact that vehicles were having. And so a mileage based fee does very much the same thing except it loses that incentive to buy a smaller vehicle. So you might opt for the heavier pick-up truck or an SUV, let's say, rather than the Prius. And that way, we'll catch all those miles by those very fuel-efficient vehicles.
CHAKRABARTI: Right. And I see at least one of these pilot programs is currently underway in the state of Oregon. Other ideas? And it's so funny, because I'm just thinking of all the people I know who drive, whose eyes just roll when they think, oh, my gosh, tolls. What if we put more tolls on the road?
KOCKELMAN: Right. Well, tolls are just like going to the grocery store and buying an orange, you know? It's a user fee. It's long been inefficient because of the heavy cost of having toll collectors out there on the roadways, slowing down vehicles, unless we want to shift to global positioning system-based reads of where we are and tracking some of that mileage. We can anonymize it before we report what we owe. But it's another way to get a sense of where people are if they're on a very congested road at a congested time of day. We can charge them a little bit more, to provide an incentive to take a different route, or travel at a different time of day, or pick a closer destination or walk, carpool.
There's lots of ways to reduce those tolls. So there's a nice incentive built in to do a more sustainable form of transportation when you bring those tolls very obviously on to the road system rather than at a gas station every month when you fill up.
CHAKRABARTI: Right. Now, there's an entirely different funding model here that you've done quite a bit of research on, and that is congestion pricing. I know that there are various cities around the world which have introduced this. I was just in London not that long ago, hearing people still grumble about congestion pricing there. But tell us a little bit about what it is.
KOCKELMAN: Yeah. Well, London's area toll is really like a cordon, and every time you pass it or - once a day, you pay a very stiff fee. And then New York was flirting with this idea on the order of $20 a crossing. And then once you're inside, you can travel as much as you want. So it doesn't disincentivize a lot of travel once you're inside. It's sort of an inefficient way to do it, and the reason London pursued it is they already had a lot of closed-circuit TVs because of terrorism.
CHAKRABARTI: But just to explain a little bit for people who don't exactly know what we're talking about, you know, in London, if you want to drive into the central part of London and you're coming from the outside, once you sort of essentially crossed this invisible border into what's considered Central London, you have to pay, you know, a one-time fee for that day. And that's the congestion pricing, right?
KOCKELMAN: Yeah. They call it congestion pricing, but as I said, it really doesn't do too much for congestion because once you're inside, once you've passed that invisible line, you can do whatever you want with your car. So paying by the mile or along each link in the system that you're using by time of day rather than just a flat fee would be much more efficient.
CHAKRABARTI: So tell me a little bit more about that. I mean, how can we create more dynamic congestion pricing systems?
KOCKELMAN: Well, Singapore is a great place to look. They've had electronic road pricing for decades, and it's very extensive. And now they're toying with the idea of global positioning systems as well so that they can do it without these overhead gantries, which are quite visible. And that's the way we've been tolling here in Texas and on many of the facilities in the Northeast. And you go under a gantry, and it reads a transponder rather than using global positioning system.
CHAKRABARTI: How important do you think it is that some of these other ideas actually are put to use in the United States?
KOCKELMAN: Well, I think we do need to start the user fee at the location of travel because congestion is such a big issue, and it's very location-specific. It's very time-of-day specific. As you can imagine, bridges are traditional bottlenecks, but so are many other ramps and facilities in our metropolitan areas where so much of the economy resides. And we need to give them the proper signals like we do with almost everything else in our economy.
And people have gotten too used to having this sort of simple pay at the gas pump and really just a drop in the bucket. People don't pay attention to it. I don't - if we bring it up another 20 cents a gallon at the federal level, it's really not going to be noticed. There's not going to be a big impact on so many sectors.
CHAKRABARTI: Well, Kara Kockelman is a professor of transportation engineering at the University of Texas at Austin. Professor Kockelman, thank you so much for joining us.
KOCKELMAN: Thank you for having me.
CHAKRABARTI: Well, do any of these alternative ways to pay for transportation infrastructure sound appealing to you? Let us know at hereandnow.org. This is HERE AND NOW. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
