The Role of Statistics in International Health
International Health covers a number of important fields including health policy (both nationally and internationally), the response to environmental disasters, and the study of health in developing nations. These activities are often hampered through a lack of resources and technical expertise where it is most needed. Statistics plays a vital role within International Health, where statistics can be defined as the ability to collect and interpret valid data describing the impact of a given health concern and its possible causes. Statistics Without Borders was established to meet the vast shortage of statistical expertise within the field of International Health.
What is Statistics Without Borders?
SWB provides pro bono statistical consulting for professionals, researchers, and other volunteers involved in international health work. SWB was established in 2008 as a special-interest group of the American Statistical Association, and today is composed of more than 200 statisticians from all around the world (including North America, South America, Europe, Africa, and Australasia). Our members come from a variety of backgrounds such as academia, industry, and government. Membership includes professionals, students, and retirees.
What types of projects have we worked on to date?

Who can become a volunteer for Statistics Without Borders?
The work of Statistics Without Borders is only possible through the warm generosity of a large team of members who have volunteered their time and expertise to support us in our mission. We warmly welcome volunteers from a wide range of backgrounds. We have members with a long background in international health statistics, experienced statisticians who are new to the field of international health, members who are new to the field of statistics but would like to work on large international health projects under the supervision of an experienced statistician, and members from other non-statistical disciplines (including the evaluation of community aid programs and data management). There is also a special role for SWB members who work for large or small community aid organizations, or who work in developing nations to serve as a representative for SWB within these contexts.
How can you help us as a volunteer for Statistics Without Borders?
When you first join as a member of Statistics Without Borders then you will be asked to complete a brief questionnaire asking for brief details about your area of expertise or interest. When new projects are established between Statistics Without Borders and our external clients, we create a project team from existing SWB members. Most of the time this is done by sending a project description to the SWB email list asking for volunteers for a given project, though sometimes specific SWB members are contacted if there is a specific area of expertise needed for a given project.
The rewards of becoming a volunteer for Statistics Without Borders
Statistics Without Borders is a not-for-profit organization and our volunteers are not paid for their time or services. However, serving as a volunteer is a rewarding experience. Most statisticians can attest to friends and colleagues who criticize statistics as being an incredibly abstract and theoretical field. As a member of Statistics Without Borders you will quickly discover that statistical expertise and support is much desired by our friends and colleagues in developing nations as they seek to characterize and respond to the natural disasters and health challenges that are present within their countries. As a statistician working in international health you can make a meaningful impact in what's happening within these regions.

Campylobacter is the most common bacterial cause of gastroenteritis in England and Wales, with 45 000 cases reported annually. Campylobacter incidence is highly seasonal; the consistent peak in late spring suggests a role for meteorological factors in the epidemiology of this organism. We investigated the relationship between ambient temperature and Campylobacter enteritis using time-series analysis to study short-term associations between temperature and number of Campylobacter reports adjusted for longer-term trend and seasonal patterns. We found a linear relationship between mean weekly temperature and reported Campylobacter enteritis, with a 1°C rise corresponding to a 5% increase in the number of reports up to a threshold of 14°C. There was no relationship outside this temperature range. Our findings provide evidence that ambient temperature influences Campylobacter incidence, and suggest that its effect is likely to be indirect, acting through other intermediate pathways.

Nation Network Prospect Profiles: #32 Ryan Pilon
Rhys Jessop
June 16 2015 05:00PM
Though Ivan Provorov and 2017-eligible Nolan Patrick may be the jewel in scouts' eyes when watching the Brandon Wheat Kings, the Wheaties other first time draft eligible top pairing defender is a damn good prospect in his own right. Calm and collected, Ryan Pilon (pronounced "PEE-lawn," not "pylon") is an adept puck mover and smooth skater, and a major part of one of the CHL's top teams from the 2014-15 season.
Join us after the jump as we profile the first of many highly touted players scheduled to be coming out of Brandon the next few years.

Though one of his teammates is also very highly touted going in to this entry draft, Brock Boeser is considered one of the USHL's very best prospects this season. The hard-working winger possesses a full toolkit of offensive skills and can score goals any way you want him to.

Top-10 UFA Countdown: #6 Matt Beleskey

This is a series counting down the top-10 pending UFAs. It will be posted across the Nation Network over the next month! Enjoy!
Almost every postseason there arises an unlikely hero from the middle of a team's roster to make headlines. And any time that player is a pending free agent, teams line up to pay that him too much money as a result. Call it the Bickell effect.
This year, that player is Matt Beleskey. The Ducks 27-year old winger has been a run-of-the-mill NHL forward for years, but his 8-goal in 16-games playoff performance combined with his size (6', 205 pounds) has him on a lot of GM's radars heading into July. Just to make his agent even happier, Beleskey also put up the best regular season of his NHL career, managing 22-goals and 32-points. His underlying numbers, however, tell a much more complicated story than his counting stats.

Continuing with our Prospect Profiles, today we turn to number 35 on the list, the Swedish import into the USHL and currently scheduled to attend Boston College: Jakob Forsbacka-Karlsson (aka JFK).
This young centre has potential to become an impact player for your team if you're willing to take the risk. His path is unique having succeeded in the Swedish system at a young age, jumping to the USHL and now heading to the NCAA.

Sennheiser Urbanite Headphones: Ace of Bass
A headphone with ample low end keeps it real while offering plenty of thump
STAUNCH AUDIOPHILES can be a judgmental bunch. Just as fashion mavens might size you up by your footwear, a sound snob is wont to assess you by your bass preferences: Crank the low end up too much and you're sure to elicit a none-too-subtle tsk-tsk.
So when the usually reserved German audio company Sennheiser releases an "enhanced bass" headphone dubbed the Urbanite, it raises the question: Can bass be in-your-face and refined at the same time?
The answer is a resounding "Booyah!" The Urbanite unleashes that visceral barrage of low end that does hip-hop artist Iggy Azalea justice without sullying the mid and upper ranges, as many similarly tuned headphones can. Vocals remain distinct, hi-hats (or samples of them) come across as crisp rather than shrill. For example, compared with the Beats Solo2—a fine-sounding, populist headphone with a comparable price, size and folding design—the Urbanite has a tighter, punch-in-the-gut low end when pushed, and produces a more open sound. Its head band, trimmed with a waterproof textile and anodized-aluminum, feels a bit sturdier, too.
Although the Urbanite is primed for hip-hop and rap (the headphone's name is a reference to the culturally rich lifestyle of the product's younger target audience, not where said audience might live, according to a company spokesman), music lovers who were raised on less bass-heavy fare shouldn't dismiss it. Its extra oomph gives a nice presence to recordings by Keith Jarrett and Lang Lang, Rebecca Pidgeon and Renée Fleming alike. Besides, even if you prefer a more conservative sound, it can still be fun to crank up the bass every now and then. $199, sennheiser.com

My website, sbranch.org, runs on WordPress V. 3.0.3 and the task of editing pages has become extremely tedious and slow. Whereas, with previous versions I could typically go to my site, hit 'edit this page', and make a simple edit in a few seconds, and preview it. Now it takes about 60 seconds for the edit dashboard to come up and another 60 seconds for the change to be displayed. Also when I try to pull up a new page, it takes 60 seconds for the blank page to come up. Whereas with earlier versions there was a button labeled publish, but now it says 'submit for review' or somesuch, and when I do a screen labeled posts comes up saying there are no posts. Then I have to spend a minute or so pulling up the new page by typing in the url. Any help from somebody out there?
Also, why isn't 3.0.3 even one of the default choices available for this forum? Am I seeking help at the wrong place?

Wow. Our experiment is off to a great start—let's see if we can finish it off sooner than expected.
Leigh FerraraMar. 7, 2007 2:30 PM
Yesterday, former U.S. Attorney Bud Cummins testified in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee (read my dispatch from the hearing here) that Mike Elston, the chief of staff to Deputy Attorney General Paul McNulty, made a threatening phone call to him. (Cummins was removed to create a spot for former Karl Rove aide Timothy Griffin.) Cummins produced an email for the committee which he had sent to five of the other USAs that had been fired, in which he recounted the phone conversation with Elston. Elston strongly advised Cummins that any further discussion with the press or Congress regarding the attorneys' resignations would be seen as an escalation of the situation and the DOJ would be forced to take action. The email read that the department was threatening to "pull their gloves off and offer public criticisms to defend their actions more fully." This phone call was in response to a Washington Post article in which Cummins was reported saying, "If they [DOJ] are trying to suggest that people have inferior performance to hide whatever their true agenda is, that is wrong. They should retract those statements." It looks like the DOJ didn't like that friendly suggestion. TPMmuckraker reports today that Elston has issued a statement denying the allegations made against him yesterday. Read the whole letter here. Essentially, Elston said, he is "shocked and baffled" by the accusations.
The misconduct list of the DOJ is totally out of control. One of the most shocking and appalling things revealed yesterday at the senate hearing was the allegation launched at New Mexico's now high-profile former U.S. Attorney David Iglesias. A reason given for his forced resignation was that he was an "absentee landlord." Iglesias is a Navy Reserve Officer and must serve 40 days during the year, something, he claimed he is not only very proud of, but highlighted on his resume when he applied for the position of U.S. Attorney. The irony of this accusation did not slip past Iglesias. He noted that the DOJ is a strong advocate of USERRA, a law that protects reserve officers from discrimination in the workplace. So, shall we add discrimination to the list?
Stay tuned for more to come, because in the words of Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Charles Schumer, who is leading the senate's investigation, the "plot continues to thicken."

Ah, finally an entry for MoJo Sports. Sports Illustrated has a neat article on the impact of global warming on sports.
Searing heat is turning that rite of passage of Texas high school football, the August two-a-day, into a one-at-night, while at the game's highest level the Miami Dolphins, once famous for sweating players into shape, have thrown in the soggy towel and built a climate-controlled practice bubble.
One day in November enough snow fell at Colorado's Beaver Creek to cause the cancellation of practice for the men's downhill at a World Cup event. A day later on the other side of the globe, officials at the French resort of Val d'Isère called off another World Cup event on account of too little snow, as well as a forecast of prolonged warm temperatures -- one of seven World Cup events in Europe this season to have all races canceled for the same reason.
The world's signature dogsled race, Alaska's Iditarod, hasn't begun at its traditional starting point in Wasilla since 2002 because of too little snow there.
And on and on. The examples abound. There are also thoughts on how to build a green stadium and instances of players who have undertaken green initiatives and teams that have gone carbon neutral. Here's is a neat one:
Scientists told the NFL that Super Bowl XLI would put one million pounds of carbon dioxide into the air -- not counting air travel to Miami -- so the league planted 3,000 trees around Florida in an attempt to pull at least that much of the greenhouse gas out of the atmosphere.
Check out the whole thing. Make sure to look for quotes from our very own Bill McKibben, who wrote "Reversal of Fortune" for MoJo's most recent issue, and the sidebar packed full of links on how to "become a greener sports fan." Activism and sports, suh-weet.

Spotted on Feministing:
Saying the word "vagina" during a reading at a John Jay High School open mic session has resulted in suspension for three female students and has sparked a debate about censorship throughout the community.
School administrators had warned the girls it would be inappropriate to say the word while reading a selection from Eve Ensler's "The Vagina Monologues," but the students were willing to suffer the consequences.
Jeepers. Here's the news article. Thankfully, students and parents are organizing and speaking out -- they've already got a facebook group (the students) and a letter-writing campaign (the parents). The administrators of the school are saying that the issue isn't censorship, it's insubordination, which is kind of odd because the original ban on saying the word that the girls defied was censorship, no?
Eve Ensler has volunteered to go to the school and talk about the situation. Her quote to the press: "What is wrong about the word 'vagina,' which is the correct biological term for a body part? It is not slang. It is not dirty or racy. The fact that it was censored is an indication of exactly what is going on in American schools, where girls and boys are not being educated about their bodies in a healthy way. We're pushing everything into the closet. We need open, healthy sex education where girls know and love their bodies."
For the record, the offending V-word came in the verse: "My short skirt is a liberation flag in the women's army. I declare these streets, any streets, my vagina's country." The girls considered not saying the word, or holding up a sign with the world written on it, but in the end did "not feel they had the liberty to change a work of art."
Bravo, kids. Turn this whole thing into a wicked college application essay.
Diane E. DeesMar. 7, 2007 1:57 PM
In December of last year, George W. Bush chose Karl Rove's assistant, Timothy Griffin, to be the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Arkansas. Greg Palast writes today that the House Judiciary Committee missed a major scandal when it omitted Griffin's appointment from its agenda yesterday: Griffin, according to reporters from the BBC, was behind the scheme to disenfranchise 70,000 citizens in Florida in 2004.
Emails sent by Griffin, who was RNC Research Director, got into the hands of BBC Newsnight reporters. These emails led to the discovery of "caging" lists--spreadsheets containing the names of voters whose voting rights could be challenged. The voters were African American and Hispanic, and they all voted in Democratic precincts in Florida. Thousands of students, military personnel and homeless people were targeted, and many lost their vote. (It is interesting to note that while the RNC was throwing a fit about military votes being counted, it was also throwing potential military votes for Gore into the trash).
Palast reminds us that it is illegal to challenge voters en masse when race is an element in such a target. Therefore, Griffin committed a federal crime, and was rewarded with a U.S. Attorney appointment. An even greater outrage, though, is that--to this day--neither Congress nor the news media has dealt with the blatant stealing of votes in both Florida and Ohio.

With well-known Iraq objector Ehren Watada waiting to face his second court martial, objector Agustin Aguayo was found guilty of desertion earlier today. He fled on September 2 from a window of his on-base home in Germany while officers were there trying to force him to redeploy. Here's the Los Angeles Times:
Aguayo first applied for conscientious objector status in February 2004, just before his unit deployed to Iraq.
A combat medic with the 1st Battalion, 18th Infantry Regiment, he served for one year at a base near Tikrit -- often refusing to load his weapon while on guard duty -- while his application was being considered.
The Army rejected his request, and after numerous appeal attempts failed...Aguayo faced a second deployment to Iraq last summer.
Aguayo may face up to 7 years in prison. The number of conscientious objector applications tripled when the Iraq war began, and has held steady since then.

Scooter Libby's legal defense fund has yet to start calling for a presidential pardon. But while it rejiggers its strategy, let's get reacquainted with the group's head, Republican donor and former ambassador Mel Sembler. As John Gorenfeld wrote in our May 2006 issue:
...Sembler knows a thing or two about the humiliations of involuntary confinement. For 17 years, he directed Straight, Inc., a substance-abuse rehab and behavior modification program that treated American teens like terrorism suspects. Sembler's official bio boasts that the "remarkable program" where children had to flap their arms like chickens or else face shaming as "sluts" and homosexuals treated 12,000 kids. President George H.W. Bush hailed it as one of his "thousand points of light." But in the early '90s, amid state investigations and suits filed by clients claiming physical and mental abuse, his clinics were dismantled. Hundreds of Straight alums now claim they were scarred for life, among them Samantha Monroe, who was enrolled in 1980 at age 12 and claims she was starved, raped, and confined in a closet.
Once a point of light, always a point of light, I guess.
Jonathan SteinMar. 6, 2007 2:18 PM
The pressing question for Scooter Libby, now that he's been convicted on four of the five counts against him and faces 25 years in prison, is how to get off the hook. Who will pardon him and when? The answer to the first question is Bush, probably, but would W. really do it in the middle of the 2008 presidential campaign? That would surely sink the already rickety Republican ship.
Libby is to be sentenced in June and cynical professionals in Washington don't expect him to do any jail time. They know he'll get off one way or another. Key pardons of the past:

Few people in America know who David Hicks is. He's an Australian man who was captured in Afghanistan shortly after 9/11 and last week was the first person stored away at Guantanamo to be formally charged by the United States government under the new system of military tribunals. Hicks had been in Gitmo for five years (he claims he was subject to beatings), and was there under an allegation of attempted murder until the charges came down. At that point attempted murder was dropped because of lack of evidence (see Padilla, Jose) and Hicks was instead charged with material support of terrorism, which wasn't illegal until 2006.
Well, now that Hicks's case is actually going to trial, the government is considering charging Hicks' lawyer with "using contemptuous language towards the president, vice-president, and secretary of defense." Apparently that's illegal for a military lawyer (free speech is notoriously lacking in the Armed Services). Never mind the obvious question of how the man is supposed to do his job without violating that law; penalties for that offense include jail time and loss of employment and Hicks' lawyer -- Major Michael Mori of Massachusetts, who has been criticized by the military for repeatedly traveling to Australia to speak out against Hicks' treatment and taking part in events like vigils on Hicks' behalf -- is saying that he may resign from the case because he can no longer speak out for Hicks' without endangering his own legal status. It's a total conflict of interest, one that the government may have created intentionally and in my mind amounts to an obstruction of due process.
The newest reporting on Hicks is that if he is willing to accept a plea bargain and plead guilty to supporting terrorism, he might get off on time served and return to Australia a free man.
To learn more, see the David Hicks wikipedia page, which has links to dozens of Australian newspaper articles about him.

Suddenly, Sen. Sam Brownback wants to apologize to African Americans and Native Americans for generations of suffering. Such attempts have been made by Congress before, but the twist here is that Brownback, who is an extreme right-wing politician, is running for president in 2008.
The resolution, authored by Brownback and Tennessee Rep. Steve Cohen, "acknowledges that the U.S. government 'violated many of the treaties ratified by Congress and other diplomatic agreements with Indian tribes' while taking actions that caused 'immense harm' to native peoples, including forced removal, relocation and extermination."
Brownback has a 20% rating (lower than Harry Reid's!) from the ACLU, which means that he has gone out of his way to deny civil liberties to citizens, many of whom, of course, are minorities. He voted to end special funding to minority-owned businesses and against setting aside highway funds for minorities.
Brownback voted against maintaining the right of habeus corpus in death penalty appeals, has consistently voted against public education, and--despite his talk about Native Americans' stewardship of the land--has consistently voted against conserving the environment (he has a 0% rating from the League of Conservation Voters).
And while it's nice that hypocrites in Congress are falling all over themselves to apologize to African Americans and Native Americans, when is Congress going to consider apologizing to women? We were burned as witches, denied birth control, denied the vote, forbidden to take most jobs, forbidden to enroll in many schools (until the 1970s), had genital mutilation performed on us (until the late 1970s), denied credit, given no protection against spousal abuse, denied the right to divorce, placed in psychiatric hospitals for asking questions or speaking our minds, sexually abused and assaulted in the workplace, denied the right to participate in most sports...the list goes on and on.
The truth, of course, is that "apologies" like Brownback's are shallow and offensive, but at least Congress considers African Americans and Native Americans politically important enough to pander to.

The BBC recently asked 28,000 people around the world to rate a dozen countries plus the EU in terms of whether they have a positive or negative influence on world affairs.
The country that most people believe has a negative affect on the world? Israel. Followed by Iran. Third is the United States and fourth is North Korea. Five years after President Bush named Iran and North Korea to the "axis of evil", we find ourselves rated as dangerous as both by the world community. Awesome.

Sorry about the delay in this post, for some reason my internet didn't work yesterday.
The Jrs had their sprint race yesterday. It was very foggy/cloudy and the temps hovered around 30. Our US kids had a solid day that might be summarized by the saying "so close and yet so far". The final results Erik B in 23rd,Eric P 31, Tyler K 36 and Sam T 72 for boys (out of 101). For girls, Sophie was 24th, Jesse 26th, Joanne 45th and Adele 59th.
Let me start by saying that I think they all gave great efforts and raced well. The field is tough. Many of the skiers here have been racing and scoring in World Cups!
With a little luck, we would have placed better. Eric P missed the heats by .03 seconds. Jesse got tangled in her 1/4 final start and spun around and crashed. She gave a great effort to catch up, but couldn't do it. Sophie and Erik B both skied great in their 1/4's, but both made the same tactical mistake. The course is only 1.3 km and it is very hard to pass. There are some sharp turns and a bunch of gentle turns. The field is very tight (10people per sec in qualifying) so after the start everyone tends to get strung out in a tight line and snake along through the course following the "best line" The only way to pass is to make a strong and bold move. Both Sophie and Erik had 3rd place in their 1/4 heats and they tried to slingshot wide around the second place skier on a sharp corner at about .9 kms. They both had the same result.... the leading skier sensed them and pushed them a little wide...and while doing this opened up the inside for the trailing skiers to dart through. End result...instead of slingshoting to 2nd, they were pushed back to 5th :(. The last .3 km included two 180 degree turns and no one made passes there all day so that's where they ended. Their attempted passes were not bad, they just did not work out. Only the top 2 are guarenteed to move on and they had to try to move up. If the lead skiers had not slid wide, they may have made it. Exciting skiing regarless!
The U23 sprint is today. I'll try to get more pictures and write a more in depth report this afternoon!
Congratulations to WJC sprint champions Thomas Northug (Norway) and Hanna Brodin (Sweden).

Best Park in Broward
Quiet Waters? Isn't that where all those weird medieval people hang out? Well, if you're thinking of the Florida Renaissance Festival, then, yes, that's one of the many events the park hosts. But if face-painting fairies, jousters, and jesters are all you know about Quiet Waters Park, then you've been missing out on the Holy Grail of outdoor recreation in Broward County. For those looking to relax, there are plenty of shaded picnic areas along the lake ripe for a barbecue. For you active types, there's mountain-biking, a nature trail, and a lot of open space to toss around a football, fly a kite, play freeze tag, or do whatever else tickles your youthful fancy. But if you want to turn the fun up to ten, try out the cable skiing/wakeboarding course, which comes complete with jump ramps and rail slides. If water sports aren't your thing, then grab your blades, skateboard, or bike and hit the ramps and rails. Of course, to do all this would take a couple of days -- why not stay the weekend at the park's campground? At $25 a day, it's a hell of a lot cheaper than some overcrowded Disney World resort. Oh, and if you happen to get there next March, be prepared to joust.

My 13 yr old son received an email so happy telling him he was being sponsored.
They provided a website a log in discotheque code since he must represent BrenGuard and make a purchase within the next few days. I must say I looked it up on their website and thought it looked good and celebrated this happy moment for him. What a SCAM!
We did our purchase for $79 and after waiting multiple weeks we never received it. We have sent emails with not one returned. BRENGUARD is the biggest SCAM. I fell horrible my son had to find out this way. Hopefully more parents will be aware of this scam corrupt fake company

'Balikatan 2014' highlights in Philippines
DESIGNED to increase the interoperability of both Filipino and American forces, several field trainings are among the highlights of the schedule for this year's "Balikatan" (shoulder-to-shoulder) military exercises.
This was announced Tuesday by Lt. (SG) Annaleah Cazcarro, Combined Joint Information Bureau co-director.
Cazcarro said these exercises include Maritime Surveillance Systems Demonstration at the Naval Education and Training Command in Zambales, demonstration on Air Movement, Live Fire, Counter Improvised Explosives Devices and Mass Casualty Response at Fort Magsaysay, Nueva Ecija;
Combined Cooperative Healthcare Engagement in Tacloban, Leyte; showcase of Philippine Air Force and U.S. Air Power at Clark Field, Pampanga; and Urban Search and Rescue field training exercises at Camp Lapu-Lapu, Cebu City.
A Combined Arms Live Fire Exercise will also be held at Crow Valley Range in Tarlac, Cazcarro said.
"Balikatan 2014" military exercises are expected to take place from May 5 to 16.
Meanwhile, Filipino and U.S. forces began conducting community infrastructure projects in Legazpi City in Albay province last week
Cazcarro said this is part of the maneuvers' Humanitarian Civic Assistance that will focus on revitalizing the interoperability of the Philippines and U.S. militaries through the conduct of disaster rehabilitation and rural development projects.
These will materialize through the Engineering Civic-Action Programs, Cooperative Health Engagements, Symposiums, and Community Relation activities.
"Balikatan" is an annual bilateral combined exercise initiated by the governments of the Republic of the Philippines and the United States.

Just wondering what you mamas have done/are doing for the kids who just can't seem to understand that when you ask them to do something they need to get it done and get it done now? This is how a normal request goes between my son (5) and I:
Me: Jaidon, time to pick up your toys.
Jaidon: Not right now mom.
Me: We need to pick up the toys so we can cook. (leave, bed, whatever) We don't want to trip and fall or break one of your toys!
Jaidon: NO(sometimes with an eyeroll).
From here, it can go in a couple different ways, I will count to 3 for him to start cleaning up, if he dosnt he gets a 5min timeout and then he gets out, I tell him he got in for not listening and he now needs to finish cleaning like a big boy so we can move on.ĀSometimes he will, sometimes he will throw a fit and back into the corner he goes. Usually then he will pick them up..
I've been very consistent about this for a long time now and it doesnt seem to get better! I'm not sure how else to handle it.
Am I asking too much for my 5 year old to pikc up his things or really just do what I ask of him WHEN I ask and without much preotest? He protests EVERYTIME and aboutĀEVERYTHING, it's quite frustrating! I feel like I already have a teenager hehe
TIA for your thoughts ladies! :))

Summary: In their desperate race for survival in a world with too many journalists, they've given a warm reception to all kinds of doomsters. Events this week suggest that at least some journalists have realized that they have no competitive advantage at clickbait, but that there will always be a market for good journalism — especially when challenging the conventional wisdom.
- The bee-pocalypse.
- The sea rise over our cities.
- For more information.
(1) The coming bee-pocalypse
The story of the bee-pocalypse shows why we're so poorly misinformed despite the massive growth of the news media, both professional and amateurs. The story has run for years, but with little debunking in the major news media. That they don't grapple with major stories, especially such easily debunked ones, shows one reason they're in decline.
For 8 years we've heard about death of honey bees (probably due to pesticides) and the resulting wreck of agriculture, told with varying degrees of hysteria by a wide range of publications. Some examples are "Better Planet: Beepocalypse. Can we save honey bees from Colony Collapse Disorder?" by Josie Glausiusz in Discover (July 2007), "Honey bee apocalypse may not be caused by evil corporations after all" by George Dvorsky at io9 (June 2012) and "The New Silent Spring: America is one bad winter away from a food disaster, thanks to dying bees" by Todd Woody at Quartz (May 2013).
Feeding the hysteria, Bryan Walsh wrote incendiary articles at the once-great Time magazine…
- "Going Green: Beepocalypse Now?" (Sept 2007).
- "Wildlife: Where Have All the Bumble Bees Gone?" (Jan 2011) — "Scientists call it the Beepocalyspe."
- "Beepocalypse Redux: Honeybees Are Still Dying — and We Still Don't Know Why" (May 2013) — "More than 5 years after it was first reported, colony-collapse disorder is still killing honeybees around the world. If scientists can't pinpoint the cause, the economic and environmental damage could be immense."

Jump Jilani - Movie Review
Allari Naresh's last outing Laddu Babu, which released in theatres on April 18, has bombed at the Box Office. Within two months after its release the comedy king has made his comeback with another laugh riot. His latest movie Jump Jilani, which has been directed by E Satti Babu, has released in cinema halls across the globe today (June 12). This time, he has made sure that he will rock the viewers.
Jump Jilani is comedy entertainer, the Telugu remake of hit Tamil film Kalakalappu. Allari Naresh's performance is the main highlight of the film. E Satti Babu's narration and punch dialogues, Isha Chawla's glamour, rib-tickling comedy scenes, good music, beautiful camera work and exotic locales are other attraction in the movie. A few illogical and over the top comedy scenes are its drawbacks.
The story of Jump Jilani is about a guy, who is struggling to run his ancestral hotel. Sticking to the original storyline, E Satti Babu has made a lot of changes in the remake. Especially, heroine Madhavi looked lovable and girl-next-door in the original. Whereas her character in the remake is quite contrary to the original. She looks dominating here. Along with changes, he has also included a few commercial ingredients to suit the taste of the Telugu audience.
Jump Jilani opens with Srikanth's voice over and it heads to reveal how Raghu Babu helps Naresh to survive from hard situations. The first half of the film is entertaining with a few comedy and romantic scenes, but it is dragging. Post interval the narration picks up the speed with a host of comedians entering the scene. The second half of the movie is high on entertainment quotient. The climax is predictable.
Sattibabu (Allari Naresh), who is the Brand Ambassador of Bad time, is tring hard to save his ancestor's hotel Satyanarayana Vilas, where his granddaughter, who is a chef, helps him to manage the things. Dharamaraju (Raghu Babu) offers him financial support. He falls in love with Food Inspector Madhavi (Isha Chawla) at the first sight. His brother Rambabu (Allari Naresh), who is a small-time thief, traps Dharmaraju and gets him arrested. What happens next will creates a laugh riot. Continue to read Jump Jilani movie review in the slideshow.

AWU scandal - Another Labor MP drawn in
Andrew Bolt
–, Friday, November, 23, 2012, (12:28am)
I suspect Julia Gillard will drag a few Labor MPs down with her:
LABOR MP Chris Hayes has been drawn into the Australian Workers Union controversy by allegations made by disgraced AWU boss Bruce Wilson that as a union official in the 1990s he was involved in talks with a major Australian company that later put "donations" into a slush fund.
The Labor member for Fowler in western Sydney yesterday declined to comment on allegations, which are contained in the diary of Ian Cambridge, the Australian Workers Union joint national secretary who in the 90s was trying to root out corruption in the union.
But another union official who became a Labor senator, Michael Forshaw, rejected as "absolute rubbish" any suggestion contained in the diary that he was involved in the meetings with the oil and gas producer Woodside Petroleum.
The diary of Mr Cambridge has been obtained by The Australian. Mr Cambridge, now a commissioner for Fair Work Australia, has confirmed that the diary is an accurate reflection of what he was told during a tumultuous period in which he and AWU president Bill Ludwig led a crackdown on fraud perpetrated by Julia Gillard's then boyfriend, Bruce Wilson. The Prime Minister has admitted setting up an association for Mr Wilson, which the then AWU state secretary and his bagman Ralph Blewitt later used to defraud hundreds of thousands of dollars by soliciting payments from companies…
Ms Gillard later described the AWU Workplace Reform Association as a "slush fund" for the re-election of union officials. She has repeatedly denied wrongdoing, saying she knew nothing of the operations of the fund.
The diary discloses that on August 15, 1995, Mr Cambridge met Mr Wilson in Melbourne ...
"During the course of the evening discussion emerged regarding some of the moneys in the funds in Victoria and at one point Wilson indicated that we were in the same restaurant which is Cerabonas in which discussions regarding the payments by Woodside in respect to one of these employer 'donations' was concluded and that involved discussions with himself, then secretary Michael Forshaw, assistant secretary Chris Hayes and two representatives from Woodside who he named, but I cannot remember their names," the diary says…
Mr Forshaw, who was a high-ranking official of the AWU and then a Labor senator for NSW from 1994 until his retirement last year, strenuously denied the account attributed to Mr Wilson in the diary, including that he and Mr Hayes were present at such a meeting.
POLICE from the West Australian fraud squad have contacted a confessed union fraudster and are considering reopening their 1996 investigation into the Australian Workers Union fraud.
Ralph Blewitt's lawyers were contacted yesterday by a fraud squad officer to seek his co-operation and a visit to Perth.
Mr Blewitt flew to Australia from Malaysia this week, saying he wanted to co-operate with police in Victoria and in Perth over a fraud that revolved around a slush fund called the Australian Workers Union Workplace Reform Association…
Mr Blewitt arrived in Melbourne on Wednesday for a meeting with his legal advisers, pending a conference with Victorian police today.

One story is what the Prime Minister did for her then boyfriend as a partner in a law firm. The other story is how key figures in the Canberra press gallery and the ABC not only refused to cover the scandal but tried to shout down those who dared. Here's the latest "what scandal?" quotes.
Michael Smith tries to get in a few words as ABC host Jon Faine maintains a diatribe of denial. Listen here.
Have Your Say
This just gets better and better.
Dear Santa.....
Fri 23 Nov 12 (12:43am)
Fri 23 Nov 12 (10:04am)
im actually waking up with a spring in my step.its been a few years of depression and heartache though.whod of ever thought our country would see the light again after staring into nothing but filth?.And i dont want no half arsed investigations either.Its time there was a full investigation in the labor party,unions and the dealings done by them in relation to major deals whether it be mining contracts or the sale of Australian farmland.labor are corrupt and have been Australias mafia since the 60s.
ALP cannot afford to let the AWU scandal go further.
I predict a new ALP Prime Minister on Monday.
But it is not a new ALP Prime Minister Australia needs, it is an election.
Fri 23 Nov 12 (02:09am)
Fri 23 Nov 12 (09:01am)
On the Michael Smith site this morning, someone posted that word from Canberra has it that BS and I am assuming that means Bill Shorten not Bull Sh*t is standing by to take over.
Fri 23 Nov 12 (09:10am)
I think they will struggle a bit to find someone who is untainted by this scandal and numerous others. It's a pretty sad state.
Fri 23 Nov 12 (09:47am)
Gillard will go kicking and screaming. If she resigns it will be seen as an admission of guilt.
I think they will have to tough it out at all costs.
Punch and judy had nothing on this.
I have a feeling that the Labor Party are running around like headless chooks trying to come up with spin.
Fri 23 Nov 12 (06:18am)
Fri 23 Nov 12 (09:12am)
They've been doing that for six years. They're used to it by now.
The Scam will be exposed - and that is exactly what the Slush Fund was - a scam and those involved knew it
Fri 23 Nov 12 (06:28am)
Looks like the extent of corruption in the unions was well known ...and that it wasn't limited to the AWU. They knew that if the investigation wasn't shut down it would bring them all down. The question is, just how many of these fleas are there ?
The journo's who have doggedly persued the truth are to be congratulated. Epsom salts are needed to go through the corrupt union officials as well as the Labor party. Both have a role to play in this country, but not in the current form.
Fri 23 Nov 12 (06:47am)
The net could be far and wide. If Gillard is found unfit to be PM does that make Roxon, the highest law officer in the land, the same for announcing Gillard as innocent?
Fri 23 Nov 12 (06:56am)
Fri 23 Nov 12 (09:21am)
Silly statement by Roxon, she should have (they all should) qualify statements with 'advice received by this office is that....'. This way they cannot be held accountable.
Having said that I am considerably happy the bumbling idiots haven't.
And what about the Union movement? A review of their processes in the community is long overdue.
Fri 23 Nov 12 (06:58am)
Mind blowing stuff on mikesmithnews.com this morning. Check it out!
Fri 23 Nov 12 (07:01am)
Happy, happy, joy, joy
Fri 23 Nov 12 (07:05am)
If she was as clever as she thinks she is she'd realise the game is up and resign now.
Every misogynist in the country is out to get her, and then there's Julie Bishop.
We can only conclude that she blewitt!
Fri 23 Nov 12 (07:11am)
Jon Faine will be pleased.
Yesterday he was pointing out that WA Police is the correct authority to invest any crime committed in WA, not Victoria Police.
He must be ecstatic that WA Police are now involved.
Fri 23 Nov 12 (07:20am)
I wonder how this investigation would have proceeded under our previous two Police Commissioners.
Fri 23 Nov 12 (07:21am)
What about other ministers who may have known about this Wilson matter and said nothing (if any)… will this potentially bring them down ???
Fri 23 Nov 12 (07:30am)
Am confused. Can anyone tell me, please, why so many big companies were so keen to donate large amounts of money into these union slush funds?
Fri 23 Nov 12 (07:32am)
Fri 23 Nov 12 (09:07am)
Typical union strongarm tactic.
Pay into our safety fund or we'll be totally unsafe and we'll be forced to go on strike. You don't want our workers to be unsafe, do you?
It's no wonder the union movement is dying a slow death.
So if a man looking at his watch is proof enough for Gillard and the ABC that he hates women. Surely all this and all the activities here seem to leading towards a conclusion.
A question, who where gillards chargable hours actually booked too?
Fri 23 Nov 12 (07:33am)
The Prime Minister has admitted setting up an association for Mr Wilson, which the then AWU state secretary and his bagman Ralph Blewitt later used to defraud hundreds of thousands of dollars by soliciting payments from companies…
Careful Andrew, sounds like you are saying the Prime Minister has admitted that Messrs Wilson and Blewitt have committed fraud.
I believe no such admission or allegation has ever been made and you should remove or at least re-write this passage.
Fri 23 Nov 12 (07:45am)
Fri 23 Nov 12 (09:11am)
Her own office and spokesman uses the words "the allegations".
Just stay tuned, they won't be allegations much longer, they will be CHARGES.
- Winston Churchill.
The truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is.
Fri 23 Nov 12 (07:51am)
but this morning, the SMH makes mention of Gillard's slush fund scandal on it's home page!
While the Age, the Fin Review and a reluctant ABC have climbed aboard, the SMH remained the last Gillard bulwark - the last wagon circling and protecting her from the "misogynists and nutjobs" who decided she had legitimate questions to answer.
Fri 23 Nov 12 (07:57am)
It seems increasingly likely, that, unlike NSW Labor, Federal Labor is like the proverbial fish which rots from its head down.
NSW Labor stinks a lot but it is some its ministers that robbed NSW taxpayers while making many millions in illegal profits.
However NSW Labor premiers look like being largely blame-less. Except, of course, it all happened under their watch.
Fri 23 Nov 12 (07:59am)
Fri 23 Nov 12 (09:08am)
You might be a bit too quick to exonerate the un-eleected Foreign Minister with the big mouth.
It was Carr that put Obeid and McDonald in place.
It was Carr after a visit from Shorten, Richardson and Co., who offered Ian Cambridge the FWA position. This was after the " If we don't stop Cambridge we will all be finished..." letter.
Clearly the culture of corruption runs deeply through the trade union movement. This is the breeding ground for future leaders of Australia. Isn't it time that the labor party completely cut its ties with the union movement? Alternatively its time that the Australian voter faced up to the fact that they have been totally mislead by labor and taken for fools.

We stayed for three nights and arrived late at night but Comfort met us at the station and drove us to the apartment, that really helped! The room is very nice, well equipped, the only drawback is that it got cold in the morning. Friendly flatmates, sometimes there was a queue for the bathroom. The location's great, it's a quiet neighbourhood but only a short walk to many buses to every possible location in central London.. and a there's a Sainsbury's very close too.
we stayed for five days, and had a good time in london! the connection to london central is good, but you have to walk a bit. the room was cold (heating did not work, tv as well), the cleanness of bedroom and bathroom was ok. comforts sister bunmi was very helpful and friendly! lambeth/brixton is a nice and cool part of the city. we would recommend this place to anybody!
It was a great stay at Comfort and Bunmi! They were both very nice and helpful. The room was nice, clean and functional.
Central London was indeed not far and the bus, which run frequently throughout the day, were convenient.
Just one advice: book without hesitation!
Everything's was all right with Confort. The room was perfect for us! The problem is that it's too difficult to find the house until you realise that it's really near to the bus station.
The room is very nice, the flatmates we met were all very friendly and the bus and tube connections to the centre are excellent. Only the bathroom could have been a little bit cleaner.
My son and I had a great time, the hospitality was very nice. The accommodation was good and the transport connections OK.
It was very nice to come to London and Comfort was meeting us at the bus station. She explained how to get around in London perfect. I was cellibrating my 50 birth day and me and Anna have Memories for the rest of ouer lifes. Thank you once again Comfort.
Magnus "gunners" Beskow
Comfort and Behme provided an excellent place to stay for the 2 days I had to stay in London. As usual they could not do enough to make my stay very comfortable including being very accomodating to my request for late check in
everything was perfect at comfort's place, clean, smooth, fairly good and logically comfortable, we had a great time there hope to see you again!!
A lovely big room with a view to a playground. A nice neighbourhood with a great park - Dulwich Park nearby (3km) (Rhododendrons - American garden) for running or a nice stroll and a picture gallery. We shared the bath room with one guest so we had it almost for ourselves. Our landlady is a very friendly and kind woman who collected us at the train station and did everything to make our stay as comfortable as possible. With the walk to the train station included it takes 30-45 mins to get to London City. Rememer to buy a one-day ticket as a lot of 2 for 1 price offers (sightseeing, meals at certain restaurants etc.) are included in the ticket. We enjoyed our stay very much!

Nothing to do with my place
... just playing around with my camera. I'm a little bit proud of this shot. Taken in my friend Kerrie's shop for her blog a little while ago. (Actually I really must say Stuart's shop. It's just that I always see Kerrie there so I think of it as hers not theirs or his. Sorry Stuart! Actually I ran into Stuart moving in the most amazing rustic dresser today. Have to take a shot soon. You'll die for it!) Lee Matthews dress, Elk necklaces. The wall colour is Porter's Paints Jaguar. A seriously sexy colour.

Breaking News
Cambodian workers in exodus from Thailand
- From: AAP
- June 14, 2014
MORE than 80,000 Cambodians have fled neighbouring Thailand to return home, fearing a crackdown on migrant workers under Thailand's new military government.
THE governor of Cambodia's Banteay Meanchey province, Kor Samsarouet, said on Saturday that more than 84,000 have returned this month through the border crossing at the west Cambodian town of Poipet, including 40,000 on Friday.The trigger for the exodus seems to have been statements by Thailand's military government, which took power in a coup last month, that it would crack down on illegal immigrants and those employing them. Several were reportedly fired from jobs and sent home, and the belief spread that legal and illegal workers were being ejected. The numbers of those fleeing swelled as unsubstantiated rumours circulated that several workers had been shot dead by Thai authorities.

Novell File Management Suite Optimizes Storage
Novell has come up with an integrated software solution that makes data storage easier and more economical to manage.
The File Management Suite is intended for environments with unstructured user data. The suite consists of three components. A Storage Manager automates repeated processes, such as moving, copying, archiving, and purging. Dynamic File Services store files according to guidelines so that less-used files are moved to lower-cost secondary storage. Finally, the File Reporter takes over the reporting function and also checks file permissions.
The tools do their work based on policies and get information about file ownership from list services such as Novell's Edirectory or Microsoft's Active Directory. The File Management Suite costs around US$38 per user, with the Storage Manager and File Reporter available separately.
The suite is available for SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 and Windows 2003/2008. Novell dedicates its <link href="http://www.novell.com/products/file-management-suite" target="_blank">product page</link> to a podcast and an evaluation version download.

Skip to comments.Dems Billboard to Rush
Posted on 03/05/2009 10:22:59 AM PST by reagandemocrat
click here to read article
The remarkable thing is that Obama and the entire Democratic Party have publicly challenged a private citizen (they recently scuttled their own petition to shut Rush down) and now this pathetic, juvenile billboard attack schtick is just too funny.
What kind of game plan is this?!
I feel like Alice following the White Hare down a danged rabbit-hole.
If she wants to burn DNC money on inane teen-angst billboard slogans, let her.
I'll guarantee there are more commercial (i.e. professional) interests waiting in line to advertise on "Limbaugh demographic" billboards than she can imagine. they actually know what they are doing, and the billions of dollars they generate from commerce (as opposed to theft from taxpayers or contributions from shady foreign billionaires) proves it.
If she's dumb enough to put the colossally unsuccessful Edwards campaign on her resume, it's a sure bet that she's inept enough to blithely dip into the wrong pot of Puppet-Master Soros' money, and get hauled off to court for illegal campaign activities (I know, I know, but a guy can dream can't he?).
You'd almost think he paid them for it. Madison Avenue couldn't have concocted a better marketing campaign (not that those limosine libs would touch him).
They're so dumb. Their thinking is "hey, let's put up a billboard in Rush's hometown that insults him. Nobody likes that."
LOL. Wish I lived in WPB. It will be something to look at and ponder.
I think Rush should start a contest with suggestions for gifts to foreign dignitaries visiting the White House. Obviously, the Obamas could use with some help.
They might wish they had not started this one.
Buying billboard space is a game anyone can play, if they have the money to do it. I imagine there are more than a few conservatives out there who would like to express their disgust with Obama and the Dims.
Heck, we could have a dedicated thread with nothing but billboard suggestions.
That's exactly what I am talking about!
"I can no more renounce Rush than I can my own grandmother..."
My stomach hurts, please stop.
We are about to engage the enemy in a great and wondrous challenge-—"The Billboard Battle"....Some of you may not survive, but I am extremely confident that each and every FReeper here will give his or her last full measure of devotion to the cause, for it is righteous.
That's all.
Will anyone be surprised when Rush buys up the rest of the billboards in town to ridicule the Democrats?
I submitted "Keep Telling It Like It Is, Rush!" It won't win, but I think Freepers should go to the website and submit entries en masse.
