President Donald Trump says he won't fire Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell but blamed the U.S. central bank for the worst stock market sell-off since February.
Trump also told reporters in the Oval Office Thursday morning that he knows monetary policy better than the Federal Reserve's leaders and continued criticizing them for interest-rate increases.
"I'm not going to fire him," Trump said of Powell, a Trump appointee who legally can only be fired for cause. "But I think it's far too stringent far too fast."
Trump said the market plunge is "a correction that I think is caused by the Federal Reserve."
Trump has repeatedly criticized the Fed over the past 24 hours as markets plunged, saying Wednesday that the central bank was "going loco." Market analysts, meanwhile, mostly attributed the decline to concerns that Trump's trade war with China could escalate.
"That's not the problem," he said in a telephone interview with Fox News late Wednesday of the trade standoff. "The problem in my opinion is the Fed," he added. "The Fed is going wild. They're raising interest rates, and it's ridiculous."
The president has been publicly criticizing the central bank since July for interest-rate increases and declared he was "not happy" in September after the third rate hike of the year. But the remarks are a sharp departure from Trump's recent predecessors. Presidents for more than two decades had avoided public comments on the Fed's interest-rate policies as a way of demonstrating respect for the institution's independence.
In an interview with the Wall Street Journal earlier this week, Dallas Fed President Robert Kaplan said he still favors raising short-term interest rates three more times before deciding whether more increases are necessary to keep the economy on an even keel.
That suggests the Fed should lift rates at its December, March and June policy meetings "unless something changes," Kaplan told the Journal. Kaplan is a voting member this year of the Fed's rate-setting committee.
On Thursday, White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow sought to downplay Trump's comments about the Fed.
"He has never attacked the Fed's plan or strategy," Kudlow told reporters on the White House lawn. "He has never interfered with that. He is giving his opinion, and it's an informed opinion."
The S&P 500 fell the most since February and the Nasdaq 100 had its worst day in seven years on Wednesday, paring gains for the year and promising little respite for equity investors Thursday. The S&P 500 remained near the lowest since July on Thursday morning, while the Nasdaq 100 rallied.
The sell-off came a day after the International Monetary Fund said the world economy is plateauing and cut its growth forecast for the first time in more than two years, blaming escalating trade tensions and stresses in emerging markets.
Trump has slapped tariffs on $250 billion in Chinese goods this year, and Beijing has retaliated with levies of $110 billion of American products. The IMF projections don't take into account Trump's threat to expand the tariffs to effectively all of the more than $500 billion in goods the U.S. bought from China last year.
Powell's goal is to extend the second-longest U.S. economic expansion on record by moving interest rates up just quickly enough to prevent overheating, but not so rapidly that the central bank chokes off growth. Powell said last week he expects to stick with the current path of gradual interest-rate hikes while monitoring risks in the economy.
Trump said Tuesday that the economy is enjoying "record-setting" numbers and "I don't want to slow it down even a little bit, especially when we don't have the problem of inflation."
One reason why the Fed has been raising interest rates even with little sign of an inflation breakout is because the unemployment rate, which fell to 3.7 percent in September, is at a level that many officials expect will cause wage and price gains to accelerate over time.
Trump on Thursday also indicated that the Fed's policies were harming him personally. Trump owes more than $300 million to Deutsche Bank AG of debt with interest rates that rise or fall depending on Fed policy. Higher interest rates could increase his debt payments considerably.
"I'm paying interest at a high rate because of our Fed," he said.

It isn't too often we have happy news for fans of American televisions shows who do not live in America. Typically, it's a real pain for non-U.S. viewers to watch their favorite U.S. programs, needing to either wait long periods after it's already aired stateside or be forced to look for episodes through less than legal means.
But as our entertainment continues to become more global, media companies are catching on. Already, U.K. shows with large U.S. audiences like Doctor Who and Sherlock have begun airing on the same day in both countries, and now it's time for America to return the favor. Fox and Amazon Prime have struck a deal that will allow for episodes of their new comic book-inspired, supernatural-procedural-hybrid show, Lucifer to be available on the streaming service to U.K. subscribers shortly after the episodes air in the U.S.
Heralding this agreement is a new trailer for Lucifer - starring Tom Ellis (Doctor Who, Once Upon a Time) as the devil, bored and looking for trouble in Los Angeles - that you can watch above.
This deal isn't Amazon's first, having made similar agreements with AMC for new series Into the Badlands as well as NBC for Constantine and CBS for Extant. The hope is these streaming deals give up-and-coming series a wider audience, but there's also the hope they'll squash piracy - something many in the entertainment industry still consider a problem.
Though shows like Game of Thrones rake in millions for HBO despite being the most pirated show in the world, shows that have yet to prove their worth to their home networks need all the support they can get. And that means watching the show legally, where networks and subscription services can make a profit, allowing them to continue producing and supporting said series.
For those of us in the U.S., however, all we need do is tune in when Lucifer airs on Fox in January. Watch two more TV spots for Lucifer, below:
Using the procedural as a foundation on which to adapt another property into a television show has become a trend among most new network dramas - iZombie, Minority Report, and now Lucifer. And while procedurals have clearly proven to be a successful formula, it does make us wonder if their overuse is dampening these shows' creativity.
Still, these trailers make a point of the devil's charming nature being Lucifer's real draw, with Ellis playing Lucifer as a bit of a rogue and not the evil demon that many think of when they imagine Satan. That in itself may not be enough to make Lucifer a standout, but it has the potential for a lot of unique confrontations between the devil and the residents of Los Angeles.
Lucifer will premiere on Fox in 2016.

5 Brand Tips For Getting More Visibility And Clients
Let me ask you something --- do you want to….
- Make more money
- Get more opportunities
- Grow your list and build your audience
- Look better naked (JK, you already look great)
Your brand is something that's worth thinking about.
Here's the deal, though! Building your brand and writing great copy is like eating a whole giant dark chocolate cake with dark chocolate frosting...you can only eat it one bite at a time.
Today I'm going to give you 5 Brand Tips that are SUPER easy to keep and will help you get that big breakthrough success you have been looking for.
1. Tell people how and why they should hire you at least ONCE a week.
It's amazing how long most businesses will go without even MENTIONING their offers and services. It's easy to assume that people are just watching and waiting for you to say something and if you repeat yourself, they will get angry. Nope. Most people miss what you are saying the first, second and third time. Don't save it for the launch.
2. Consistently show up somewhere 3-4 times a week
This is one I struggle with too. I am actually not a big business social media person. I love talking about personal things but with so many emails coming to their inbox and life in the way, it's easy for people to forget about you. Pick a social media platform and just be around to ask questions, interact and create content. I know, I'm not excited about it either. I'm gonna be showing up in my Facebook group and my goal is to make that space fun! - Join if you haven't yet.
3. Establish what you are "known for"
There is a moment in every brand's life where they realize that the quickest path to success is to make it easy for people to refer you to someone else. Even a multipotentialite like me realizes that while there is a lot I can do -- people are only going to refer me for one or two things. Most people only have enough brain power to do that. Decide what you want to be "known for" this year. It doesn't have to be the ONLY thing you do.
4. Pick a brand mascot
A brand mascot can be anything. Your dog. A celebrity. An illustration. It's just another way to remind people who you are and have people thinking about you, even when you aren't around. I get tagged anytime Keanu Reeves or Ryan Gosling show up anywhere by my readers. You guys are always sending me cute things for Alfred. A brand mascot is a great way to connect with your audience in a new way and help you stand out. It's also a great way to infuse some personality into your brand and connect with people in new ways.
5. Write a powerful POV post
In Brand Bomb, I teach my students about the different ways you can differentiate yourself from other people in your market. One of my favorites is the "they do this/I do this" type of post. It's a great way to let your customers what you are and aren't about. These are always my most popular posts -- the ones that call out my industry on the things I don't like.
Have you told your people what you do and don't like about your industry? This is the time to do it. It's a great to activate your audience and get some response from them if they've been quiet for a long time.
Those are your 5 Brand Tips. Need help getting some extra clarity? Grab my BRAND CLARITY GUIDE here:

I haven't been obsessed with a swimsuit in years and L*SPACE killed it with this Ridin' High swimsuit series!! Everyone likes a specific style and I'm really into the brazilian look with the high hip/high waisted style. Plus, the sporty top is a bonus. Aside from being a glamorous suit, I know its more practical when it comes to swimming. I can dive head first into the water without worrying about my top of bottoms flying off the second i hit the water. ALSO, this summer I plan to do a lot of water sports, especially wake boarding, so this will be my go to suit for summer 2017!

What You Need To Know Concerning Learning Spanish Speech
When you are getting it hard to learn Spanish pronunciation, then you need to search for the best tactics which will enable you to do it well. You are required to think outside the box if you wish to excel in Spanish pronunciation. If you want to improve your Spanish speech, you need to eliminate the fear that many people have when they are learning a new language.
When you are educating yourself on the right way to pronounce some of the Spanish terms, it is recommended that you interact with native speakers most of your time. It is essential to note that doing this will allow you to get the colloquial way of Spanish accent as well as learn the regular conversation. When you do this, you will get familiar with the famous Spanish terms. It is prudent to add books and other materials which can guide you on the best way to get Spanish speech.
Spanish writing, books, and newspaper are some of the recommended ways in which you can improve your pronunciation. The Spanish weeklies and travel magazines are also vital when you are in the process of learning Spanish accent. Experts suggest that people who are learning Spanish pronunciation should watch some of the channels as they play a major role in helping a person to get the dialect and know how to use phrases in Spanish. Another way to get used to Spanish language is by trying to talk when you are in the presence of your friends as this will encourage you to continue until you excel.
Make sure that you are making use of the internet in the best way possible as you can find some of the sites which are concentrating on Spanish speech. You can try to watch some of the Spanish movies which have English subtitles as they will help you in your pronunciation progress. It is advisable to ensure that during the begin of your Spanish lessons, that you are grabbing the correct accent as simple mistake will make you struggle to make things right again. When you get the wrong accent, then you will be required to start again until you get the right speech.
For people who are planning to have a vacation by travelling to other countries, it is essential to visit Spain or go to a country where Spanish speaking people are many. During this time, make sure to talk and relate with as many people as possible who native speaker. It is imperative to understand that talking to people will help you to work on areas which you are not perfect when learning Spanish pronunciation.

When people talk about poker today, the first thing that comes to mind is Texas hold 'em or Omaha as these are the two games that have most of the fans.
There also the ones played frequently online but the truth is that the first type of poker ever to be played was the five card stud.
This is a openhanded poker variant which has been around for decades, although today it is only played by those who are nostalgic about the good old times or genuine fans of the game.
Overview of Five Card Stud poker
The five card stud poker is one of the two versions of the game with the other involving several cards, but the rules are more or less the same so the transition from one type of poker to the other is smooth.
Players receive a total of five cards just as the name suggests, with one of them being closed and the other four open. The idea is still to make the best possible combination involving five cards and the possible hands are the same as in Texas hold 'em or Omaha.
At least 2 players and a maximum of 10 can sit down at the same poker table and play five card stud, with the game bearing many similarities to hold'em poker in terms of betting progression. The differences consist in the fact that players act in another order and they also need to make the most of the different card distribution. The possible combinations are more numerous and the role played by luck is more significant, which explains why professionals shy away from this genre.
Principle and rules of Five Card Stud poker
All players who participate in a hand will need to place on ante before the betting round begins and only after this happens, each of them receives the hole cards.
The open card is visible to their opponents so they can make an educated guess about what type of hand they are up against by the time the betting round begins. The one who has the smallest open card is the one who acts first, with the other players choosing between calling, raising, re-raising or folding.
What makes the second betting round different is that this time the player who has the strongest combination of two open cards is the one to at first. Action moves across the table clockwise and more open cards are dealt, with the third betting round being virtually the same as the previous one.
Finally, another open card is dealt and players bet, raise or reraise once again, with the remaining ones going to showdown. This is when they unveiled the closed cards and the one with the best five card hand wins.

Meantime, parents have to miss work for doctor visits and there are expensive medications and sometimes surgery to fund.
PhD candidate Jessica Browne and Associate Professor Andrew Taylor-Robinson prepare for their otitis media research
Click here to View/Download full-sized Image
That's why CQUniversity researchers are keen to forge ahead with what will be Queensland's only clinical study into middle ear infection (known as otitis media), with the aim of finding better therapies or to reduce the severity of the disease.
Thanks to Mater Hospital ethics approval, PhD candidate Jessica Browne and Associate Professor Andrew Taylor-Robinson will carry out immunological studies on clinical samples collected during adenoid surgery at Rockhampton's Mater Hospital.
The CQUniversity team is proud to be tackling a worldwide problem which can lead to recurrent bouts of suffering, educational difficulties and stress on families.
"Middle ear infection is a major problem for children and their families in rural and regional areas and in Indigenous communities so it's fitting we are basing our study in Rockhampton," Ms Browne says.
The project will be underpinned by funding from the HEALTH CRN (Health Collaborative Research Network). The Queensland University of Technology is also providing crucial access to additional laboratory technology.

Local ear-nose-and-throat specialist Dr Evan Matthews and his clinical staff and nurses will be partners in the research. Dr Matthews is now an Adjunct Associate Professor with CQUniversity and the project would not be possible without his involvement.
Professor Jennelle Kyd from Swinburne University of Technology, who established otitis media research when based at CQUniversity, will also play a part in supervising the study.
The project will be based in laboratories at CQUniversity's new Central Queensland Innovation and Research Precinct across from its main Rockhampton Campus.
CQUniversity now has approval for the establishment of a 'Biobank' for the long-term storage of clinical samples to aid this study, as well as ongoing research in upper respiratory infections.

Depicteur was started by myself and a couple of friends as a way for people to take their photos and turn them into custom, hand-painted oil paintings. A way to provide a memorable gift or enduring piece of decor using the timeless craft of oil painting but, ya know, paintings of ridiculous things like a guy riding a lion away from an explosion or a cat on the body of a commander from the 1800's. We're here to help people make their own masterpieces.
On depicteur.com, people can learn more about our process, see examples and order their paintings. But one of the coolest option we have is called Depicteur Studio. Here, we help people create the concepts in their head into digital renderings first. Then, customers can then see a basis for what their painting will look like and get that exact image painted.
When Reddit likes your post enough to go to the front page, you definitely feel warm and tingly inside. We shared our painting we made for Instagram star cat Maccha and the fine people of Reddit upvoted it all the way to front page. As long time Reddit members and fans, this was one of the biggest treats and gained us a lot of exposure.
With Depicteur Studio, we help create the most ridiculous images. Another place that does this almost too well is Reddit's PhotoshopBattle. We wanted to reward and give back to a community we were so fond of. After teaming up with the Reddit moderators, we offered a free painted version of the most upvoted image as a prize for their Weekly Battle contest. The winning entry was an epic vision of a wild west Bernie Sanders.
We weren't launched for very long but after our collab with Maccha and getting on Reddit's front page, we got a few more substantial blogs and sites pick us up.

Do you feel a strange sensation in the air, or a powerful force rumbling up in your belly? It's not dark magic at work, or a spell being cast; you're hungry for a sweet snack unlike any other. Well, hunger no longer, Los Angeles, and get ready to go nuts for doughnuts: Voodoo Doughnut has made the journey from Portland, Oregon to Universal CityWalk® to serve up amazing pastries by the dozens with one-of-a-kind shapes, styles, and flavors. Where to begin when there are so many cakes, rings, cruellers, and fritters to choose from? We picked 12 of our favorites and added some suggestions on the perfect moments to chow down on them… call it "icing on the cake."
Sprinkle Cake - When You Want Something Simple
We get it; life is complicated and your day gets crazy. With so many toppings and flavors to choose from, it can get a little overwhelming. A simple cake doughnut with vanilla frosting and sprinkles can feel like an old buddy you're familiar with. Just… y'know, a buddy you're gonna happen to eat within seconds.
Old Fashioned - When You Respect Your Elders
Maybe you just listened to oldies on the radio, you just found a classic vintage suit at the thrift store, or you're reading up on some history and feeling some awe for what came before you. That respect will extend to this old-fashioned style glazed cake doughnut. The tapered edges don't make it a "perfect circle" — but what could be more perfect than a little extra doughnut on the sides?
Diablos Rex - When You Want Halloween to Come Early
Are you missing the season when there's black cats in the windows, skeletons on the walls, and costumes around every corner? Well, you know a place that sells 3 dozen doughnuts in a "Coffin of Doughnuts" (yes, really!) is gonna have your back and bring Halloween early! This chocolate cake doughnut with red sprinkles, chocolate frosting with vanilla icing, and chocolate chips in the middle is devilishly delicious.
Tangfastic - When a Little Twist Makes a World of Difference
If you're hiding colorful socks under your work clothes or cranking up pop music to shimmy in the driver's seat during rush hour, you know a small burst of flavor can go a long way. So this doughnut will speak to that sentiment: a plain cake doughnut becomes anything but plain with vanilla frosting, three tiny marshmallows, and tang on top!
Memphis Mafia - When You Dance Like Nobody's Watching
Your record collection, nights out dancing, and maybe even your fashion sense confirms it: even when Elvis left the building, he never left your heart. So complement the King's songs stuck in your head with some frosting stuck on your fingers. The Memphis Mafia fritter consists of a hunk-a hunk-a fried dough with banana chunks and cinnamon covered in glaze, chocolate frosting, peanut butter, peanuts, and chocolate chips!
Dirt Doughnut - When You Don't Mind Getting a Little Messy
If your desk looks messy, you know better: there's method to that mess, and everything is right where it should be… or hidden beneath where it should be. This doughnut is your spirit companion: a raised yeast doughnut with vanilla frosting and crumbles of Oreo chunks scattered on top. Those cookie crumbs look sloppy, but you see the brilliance behind every piece's placement.
Bacon Maple Bar - When Your Breakfast Love Calls
Breakfast is the most important meal of your day… and you think about it the rest of the day. And maybe bring it up a little too often. Voodoo Doughnut understands: they combined three great morning tastes — bacon, maple, and doughnuts – and created the most important snack of any day. Talk about raising the breakfast bar.
The Loop - When It's Time to Feast on Nostalgia
You've got a t-shirt at home with your favorite childhood cartoon on it… unless you're wearing it right now. You know jingles from your youth by heart and when you're in the mood to snack, you're in the mood to unleash your inner child. The Loop gets its name from the colorful, crunchy loops of cereal covering its vanilla frosting. Now, if that's not a flashback to a Saturday morning sugar rush, what is?
Chocolate with Peanut - When You Want to Make a Little Noise
You're in a state of mind where you're not afraid to be heard, whether that means speaking your opinion, humming along to a tune that just came to you, or squeaking your chair's wheels while you work. A nice big crunch will carry across the room too, so chow down and make it loud with tiny peanut chunks coating the chocolate frosting.
Crueller - When You Want to Travel But France is a Bit Far
You have daydreams about roaming and seeing the world. You're searching images of European landmarks online, you're brushing up on foreign languages, and you've made sure your passport is up to date… but that's a long plane ride, and there are only so many vacation days on your plate. So in the meantime, how about putting this French-style pastry on your plate? Original glaze, cinnamon sugar, chocolate frosting, or maple frosting are options you can say "Oui" to, and if you can't decide which topping you want, try all four and make a mini-staycation out of it.
Hollywood Cream - When You're Feeling Famous
You're showing off a new fashion choice, you just nailed an assignment at work, or maybe you just took the best selfie of your life. Whatever the case, you're feeling famous. Plus, look around you: when you're at Universal CityWalk®, the spirit of Hollywood is everywhere… including packed inside of this cream-filled shell doughnut, exclusive to Voodoo Doughnut's CityWalk® location.

Affiliate Program
Earn revenue all year long
Would you like to earn 10% of all YumaLite™ online sales generated from your web site or blog site? You can do that simply by joining our affiliate program and adding a YumaLite™ affiliate banner, button or text link to your website.
Why join our Affiliate program?
Millions of people worldwide could benefit from YumaLite™, and we've only just begun to scratch the surface of this large market. By becoming an affiliate, you'll have the opportunity to get in on the ground floor and earn money by promoting an innovative product that can safely and effectively help so many people feel better.
There's a large market for you to reach
Ninety percent of us do not receive the light we need resulting in symptoms of low mood and low energy. We might feel down, have trouble getting up in the morning, crave carbs and put on weight. Some of us feel severe forms of these symptoms during the winter and suffer from winter blues, known as Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). However there are many reasons we might not receive adequate light all year long; rainy days, working inside at the office, jet lag and shift work can also make us feel these same symptoms. Seniors commonly suffer from not getting the light they need, as do mothers with newborn babies who can be awake at all hours.
Light therapy can safely and effectively treat these symptoms. But for most people, traditional light therapy devices aren't convenient or affordable. They can cost hundreds of dollars and because they are stationary, you have to sit in a fixed location, usually for up to 90 minutes in the morning, to get the benefit. That doesn't fit with most people's morning routines. By comparison, YumaLite™ is a lightweight cordless device that rests comfortably on your head. You can easily wear it while doing any number of things—from having breakfast and reading the paper to doing housework or exercising. In as few as seven days, wearing YumaLite™ for just 30 minutes a day, users generally experience an improvement in their mood and energy levels. And it's only $90 USD. No other light therapy device is as convenient and affordable.
YumaLite™ has made light therapy accessible to the mass market, and by becoming an affiliate, you'll be able to earn money as you tap into that market.
Our program features:
- 10% commission rate on all sales resulting from customers originating from your site.
- Affiliate Account site so that you can track your sales and monthly commissions.
- YumaLite™ provides everything you need including the HTML links and graphics for your website or blog site.
Getting started
YumaLite™ has teamed up with ShareASale to offer a simple affiliate signup process, so that you can begin earning commission payments from your website as soon as possible. If you're interested in joining our affiliate program or finding out more about it, click here.

Hi! My name is Katey Rench and I will be a Freshman this year! I can't even believe that I'm in high school. It feels like just yesterday I was starting middle school but now it's here. I was super excited to get onto leadership as the freshman cite council representative! I wanted to be apart of the school in some way and this is my chance to! My sister was apart of student leadership and she really loved being part of it! One of the things that i'm looking forward to do since I made it into leadership is helping with setting up and creating the assemblies. Since Kylee helped with assemblies my parents would always let me come and watch, they were always so amazing and you could tell that people worked hard to set them up. It made me want to join leadership even more so that I could be one of those people who helped with creating them.
I am part of the JV Beaverton Cheer team! I have done cheer for Beaverton youth cheer for 2 years and It has been so much fun. I am so happy that I made the team this year! I always enjoyed watching the cheerleaders when they would perform at games or at assemblies because I always wanted to be out there doing it too. When I started cheering, I would go to the Little Beavers Camp that the cheerleading team would do and I would always wanna be just like the older girls because they were all so nice and good at what they did. Having had 2 older siblings going to Beaverton, I always enjoyed coming to football games and basketball games and watching how all the students would be so spirited. The people would cheer along and it would get super loud and it always made me super excited to be a high schooler myself!
Outside of school I read a lot! I always love finding a good series so I can just keep getting book after book after book! My favorite library to go to is by Beaverton High School because I can walk there and they have so many books and there's so many different genres that you can choose from. It's really nice to have a library close enough to walk to because then you can get a book and get your exercising done for the day. One of my favorite series is by Kiera Cass and it''s called The Selection Series! I could not put those books down they were so great! When I'm not reading, I love watching shows with my family! One of our favorite shows that we have been watching since we were little kids is America's got talent! It is a something we looked forward to when it comes out during summer time. I also hang out with friends a lot. Something me and my friends enjoy doing is going to the pool and the mall. We always buy Panda Express or Sushi when we go to the mall because it is kinda like a tradition. I am ready to create new friendships when I join Beaverton High this year and join traditions that have been happening for years.

San Diego City Schools' Board of Education member Fran Zimmerman brought forward a reasonable-enough idea last week, and, staying true to its recent history, the board rejected the proposal with a 3-2 vote. Stop us if you've heard this one before.
The idea deserved a better, more open-minded discussion than it got. But, of course, open-mindedness is not a hallmark of the current Board of Education. Despite being discussed by the board for roughly an hour-after perhaps an hour's worth of public testimony—the idea was dismissed by a board majority without any well-intentioned give and take.
Zimmerman wanted to revive the old community advisory committee on the budget for one simple, rather compelling reason-the San Diego City Schools Board of Education doesn't understand its very complex $1.1 billion budget.
At least two members of the board, Zimmerman herself and the recently elected Katherine Nakamura, have acknowledged a certain lack of budgetary comprehension. As a remedy, Zimmerman wanted to establish a 15-member committee consisting of three people appointed by each board member and supported by the district's chief business officer and two finance deputies. Under Zimmerman's plan, the committee members would be people who possess a keen understanding of budgets and finance.
The committee would soak up budget information through presentations from district staff and special interests—such as special education advocates, music and arts advocates and minority groups—and hear public testimony. It would consider budget recommendations from Supt. Alan Bersin and his Executive Leadership Team and discuss them in an open forum before they go to the Board of Education. The committee would start from scratch and come to its own conclusions about how the district's programs should be funded.
There had previously been a budget advisory committee, but Bersin allowed it to die a slow, quiet death by simply declining to convene it. Bersin last week said such a committee is unnecessary because board members already can seek out advice about how to respond to district staff's budget recommendations.
Board members Ed Lopez and Ron Ottinger immediately went on the defensive, arguing that they didn't need anyone telling them what to do. Nakamura, who joked about how clueless she is about all matters budgetary (she said she needed pictures to help her understand the complex data) also voted no.
Normally, talk of forming committees, task forces and blue-ribbon panels makes CityBeat chafe. But in the case of San Diego City Schools, we hate to say it, but we think it's an awfully good idea. This is a district whose superintendent had to be berated constantly over a long period of time before he would even admit that he needed to communicate better with parents and teachers—which is an understatement of colossal proportions.
For budgetary reasons, 1,487 teachers have received pink slips letting them know they might not have a job next year. The district faces a $150 million deficit. Parents, teachers and education activists are burning with resentment at how the district is conducting business. There is much acrimony and very little mutual respect or understanding. Providing a forum that fosters respectful sharing of information and aims to enhance understanding is worth a try.
Given that staff budget presentations have the heads of two board members spinning—and we suspect the number might really be as high as four—we believe the district has the duty to facilitate a process that will provide much more transparency and perhaps break down some of the distrust.
We urge the board to reconsider Zimmerman's proposal.

Quillies and grapes./
As I continue to hook The Fox and the Grapes, let me pause and explain how I attached the quillie grapes to the linen. After making the individual quillies, I sewed them invisibly to each other to form the clusters of grapes. This is done by sewing horizontally through one quillie and into the next one. Then I sewed the clusters to the linen. You can see from the photo (below) of the back of the linen that my sewing isn't all that neat, but it gets the job done. Even though the quillies were now in clusters, I still had to be sure to sew each grape to the linen so they wouldn't pop up.
Hooking around the quillie clusters leaves a blank area on the back of the linen. I may choose to back the entire mat with a piece of wool when it's finished, but that remains to be seen.
I also got out the dye pots this past week and made some pretty yummy green and purple wool for the background. I'm hooking the background in 8.5 cuts, which are nice and wide. I want the background around the magpie and the grapes to have an impressionistic look. The purple and green spot dyed wool will give the suggestion of other grapes in that area.
The Fox and the Grapes is moving along nicely so far. Stay tuned as I finish the dark areas on the left and bottom of the design and then do something entirely different for the central area where the fox is situated.
There's a lot of beauty out there and in the delight of "painting with wool".

yea I'm failing at it ... everyone keeps telling me how strong I am and tho I appreshate it so much I'm having trouble seeing what your seeing.. I've always been really hard on my self in general but all of this I should be better at it I should be better at being her mom I should be better at handling everything going on with her. Sometimes when she has her moments of possible sezuires or somthing that just isn't "normal" baby behavior I seriously want to run I want to run states away if I could it's hard to admit this but I can't lie it's very hard being her mom. In no way do I resent her and I'm not mad at god tho everyone asks me if I am it comes down to me being confused and scared.. how am I supposed to do this? how does any one do this? I'm confused as to why her why does she have to go thru this I'm mad because why me when there is so many people who don't even want their kids or do drugs while pregnant and their baby's are fine I know every ones different I know god only gives us what we can handle but I seriously think he has me mistaken for someone else. I feel as if I have been holding my breath and I'm at the breaking point where everytime I'm like yes I made it another day another week I think damnit this is how my life will always be holding my breath to get thru a day then the night comes and I can't ever actually sleep because I have to listen for her and see if it's a regular cry or is she sezing .. no one plans for their lives to turn this way.. I sure didn't.. I wanted the husband, the house, the dog and the perfect little baby tho she is perfect in our eyes we don't get to have a typical new born or toddler or teenage if she lives to be one seeing that a lot of the kids who have this suposablly die by 10 ... sorry this blog post is probally beyond depressing but I needed to vent I've been positive for so long and I've been having really hard days. Her EEG was a big eye opener that she's not going to live a normal life even if she looks it... and there isn't a damn thing I can do about it.. every mothers fear..
We don't get to find out the results for a while because we found a neurologist in Orange County that we're going to give a try and he's going to be the one going over the results hopefully because we learned Harlow dosnt do well on long traffic drives and he last we we need is getting her upset cus that's when the weird stuff starts to happen yet again another thing we're limited to and have to find other ways arround. I just feel so bad for her I know they say baby's don't know but I'm so worried she's scared and I can't fix it she gets this look on her face where she looks like she's so confused and then it's followed by pain if this is the look I get now I can't imagine the looks I'll get from her as she gets older it's just constantly breaking my heart that I can't fix this I can't make this go away
On a more positive note she rolled over on her own the other day we havnt been able to get her to do it again tho she hates tummy time so much it's hard to make her do it to much for too long. I have to give my husband props tho he dosnt ever look at her like anythings wrong he is so in love with her it's so amazing to watch them together well I'm off to bed I hope tomorrow is a better day 💜

Austrian woman allegedly switched at birth to be paid $100K from hospital
VIENNA -- An Austrian court has ordered a hospital to pay over $100,000 for handing a baby to the wrong parents more than two decades ago.
Doris Gruenwald, 26, discovered the error after a blood test four years ago revealed that she was not the biological child of Evelin and Josef Gruenwald. She was subsequently adopted. The Gruenwalds' natural child has not been found.
The court in the southern city of Graz ruled Monday that the hospital was guilty of gross negligence and ordered it to pay the woman and the couple who raised her.
Gunther Ledolter, the lawyer representing the Gruenwalds, on Tuesday confirmed the court decision and details reported in Austrian media.
The hospital plans an appeal. The hospital suggested in court that the mix-up could have taken place later or another place, AFP reports.
Gruenwald still does not know who her biological parents are, AFP reports. The hospital launched a search by offering DNA tests to 200 women born in the hospital around the same time. So far, only 30 women have taken advantage and none were a match.

As scientists celebrate 2009 as the bicentennial of Charles Darwin's birth, experts in anthropology, biology, psychology and other fields will gather at the University of Utah Feb. 25-27 to debate how evolution has shaped human aggression and violence, from war to domestic abuse and homicide.
"What evolutionary forces underlie human violence, and how can we use this knowledge to promote a more peaceful society?" asks Elizabeth Cashdan, a conference organizer and professor and chair of anthropology at the University of Utah.
The conference - titled "The Evolution of Human Aggression: Lessons for Today's Conflicts" - is presented by the university's Barbara L. and Norman C. Tanner Center for Nonviolent Human Rights Advocacy.
It will be held at various locations - mostly at Fort Douglas on the University of Utah campus - from Wednesday evening, Feb. 25 through Friday afternoon, Feb. 27.
The public and news media are invited to attend the free conference.
Conference highlights include keynote lectures on the evolution of peacemaking among primates and the relationship between homicide and economic competition; panel discussions on conflict and reconciliation among great apes, violence and warfare, hormones and human aggression, and domestic violence; a scientific poster session; and a community forum on violence.
"This conference helps to bring science fully into the conversation about violence, conflict management and peacemaking," says communication Professor George Cheney, director of the Tanner Center for Nonviolent Human Rights Advocacy. "This gathering, which is the third in our annual series, will include provocative presentations, lively debate and a roundtable discussion of how current research might be used to reduce violence in our own and other communities."
200 Years after Darwin's Birth, Evolution has Lessons for Modern Conflicts
"Curbing human violence is one of the great challenges humanity faces in the 21st century," says David Carrier, a conference organizer and professor of biology at the University of Utah. "Many aspects of human aggression will be addressed at this conference: warfare, homicide, child abuse and domestic violence. We encourage public attendance because an increased understanding of the evolutionary basis of human aggression may help individuals prevent violence in their own lives and the lives of their friends and family members."
"Every adult on the planet has experienced anger," says Stephen Downes, a University of Utah philosophy professor and a conference organizer. "Some of us have committed violent acts against others out of anger. Why we feel this way and why some of us act in the way we do is a question that has consumed students of human nature for thousands of years."
"Evolutionary theory gives some of the most revealing insights into this issue," he adds. "Bringing together a group of the world's leading experts on evolution and aggression is an appropriate tribute to Darwin in this 'Darwin year'" - the 200th anniversary of Darwin's birth and 150th anniversary of his "On the Origin of Species."
While the modern view has grown more complex, Cashdan says that for decades, "there has been a lot of unproductive debate between people who argue that 'humans are naturally aggressive' and others who contend that 'humans are naturally peaceful.' There is plenty of evidence to support both claims: violence, reconciliation and cooperation are all part of human nature."
Cashdan adds: "We begin with the working assumption that natural selection has shaped human nature to be both violent and peaceful, and ask how evolutionary arguments can help us to understand the factors that lead to both violent and peaceful outcomes. This can help show which policy changes are likely to be successful, and where we can most usefully intervene to allow the better angels of our nature to prevail."
Abbreviated Conference Schedule:
- 7 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 25, Utah Museum of Fine Arts Dumke Auditorium - Opening keynote address by primate expert and psychology Prof. Frans de Waal from Emory University in Atlanta. De Waal's talk is titled, "Destined to Wage War Forever? The Evolution of Peacemaking among Primates."
- 9 a.m. Thursday, Feb. 26, Officers Club, Fort Douglas - Panel discussion, Conflict and Conflict Resolution in Great Apes. One panelist is Harvard's Richard Wrangham, who argues that power imbalances promote violence.
- Noon Thursday, Feb. 26, Post Theater, Fort Douglas - Keynote lecture by Martin Daly and Margo Wilson of McMaster University. They will discuss how homicide rates correlate with inequality of incomes, and how young men "who are most likely to kill or be killed are those with little to lose by competing dangerously."
- 2:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 26, Officers Club, Fort Douglas - Panel discussion, Coalitionary Violence and Warfare. Among the panelists is Harvard University psychologist Steven Pinker, who contends: "Contrary to the popular impression that we are living in extraordinarily violent times, rates of violence at all scales have been in decline over the course of history."
- 4:15 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 26, Officers Club, Fort Douglas - Panel discussion continues, Coalitionary Violence and Warfare. Among the panelists, Peter Turchin of the University of Connecticut will argue that conflict between groups generated the evolutionary pressures that favored the social forces holding together complex societies of hundreds of millions of people.
- 8 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 26, Alta Room at the Alta Club, downtown Salt Lake City - Poster presentations of research dealing with evolution and aggression.
- 9 a.m. Friday, Feb. 27, Officers Club, Fort Douglas - Panel discussion, Hormones and Human Dominance and Aggression. Among the panelists is Aaron Sell, of University of California, Santa Barbara. Sell will discuss why physically stronger men are more prone to anger.
- 10:45 a.m. Friday, Feb. 27, Officers Club, Fort Douglas - Panel discussion, Domestic Violence, focusing on spousal-partner abuse. One panelist, Aaron Goetz of California State University, Fullerton, will discuss debate over the extent to which men view their partners "as an entity that they privately own and control."
- 1:45 p.m. Friday, Feb. 27, Officers Club, Fort Douglas - Panel discussion, Domestic Violence, focusing on child abuse. Panelists include keynoters Daly and Wilson, who will discuss the "Cinderella effect" - violence against stepchildren.
- 3:20 p.m. Friday, Feb. 27, Officers Club, Fort Douglas - Community Forum on Violence, including experts who deal daily with domestic violence.
