They rented an apartment in the home of Sarah Kravtzik (The stalerke) on Podkrizh Hill, together with the youth movement Hashomer Hatzair, which had already formed a club in this house. Since they shared the space and in general believed in the same goals, they often held joint activities, such as bazaars on Chanukah and Purim, parties and fundraisers, and assembling on Simchat Torah. Actually the branch of Hehalutz was established by the initiative of the Zionist movement in Maytchet and its active support, so that it would encourage the policy of making aliya to Eretz Yisrael. However, after a time, Hehalutz became a distinct independent organization and as such was in contact with the district center of Hehalutz in Baranovichi and the main center in Warsaw from whom it received instructions for activities.
The local branch of Hehalutz took upon itself the fulfillment of Zionist aspirations (hagshama) sending its members to training centers in towns and locations near and far and even subsidized from its funds travel expenses to Eretz Yisrael for those without means. In order to raise funds and for the training of the members for manual labor, they worked at various jobs in town including cutting trees, cleaning, etc. Other members were sent to work on the roads, etc. and half of their income was given to the movement and the other half left for their personal living expenses.
Because the organization began late, it didn't manage to get very much done. Before it succeeded in developing fully and reaching fulfillment which was it's main purpose - training and aliya, the pre-war emergency conditions began and later the violence of the war itself disrupted all regular work. That is why there was just a small number of pioneers from Maytchet who succeeded in going to Eretz Yisrael and the small number of survivors of the holocaust from Maytchet. Nevertheless, the movement succeeded in sending members to far-off training camps from where they were somehow able to reach Eretz Yisrael in a legal way or an illegal manner.

Translated by Esther Mann Snyder In 1934 I was sent for training to a training group (kibbutz) in the bloc Tel Hai founded by the center of Hehalutz in Bialystok. From there I was transferred to Milaytchitz, which was a small group of 12 members where we worked in a ceramic factory and were also sent from there to other places to organize more training groups. After a time the group in Milaytchitz dismantled and the members were transferred to Bielsk-Podlaski, a large group of 120 members, who worked in every possible job. Due to the large debts that had accumulated the members of the center in Bialystok came to dismantle it and to send the members to the various groups in Tel Hai. I was sent to the Shaharia group in Vilna. I remained there and worked during the two critical years, 1937 - 39. People already spoke openly that a war would soon begin and since there weren't enough certificates [to go on aliya] and time was running out, I decided to go on Aliya B (illegal immigration). In July 1939 I received a telegram to urgently prepare my affairs and to travel to Warsaw. Eight hundred people from all over the country were concentrated in a large hotel and we were told that they could not promise the success of the plan and anyone who was fearful or hesitant should return home.
During the night we climbed onto trucks that brought us to the train station where a train was waiting to take us to take us to Romania, posing as tourists. When we reached Constanta, Romanian police entered the train, arrested all of us and placed two guards by each coach for a whole week. One night a few members secretly left the train and set fire to nearby warehouses. Consequently, they moved the train to another location where we stayed another three days until a directive arrived to allow us to board a Greek freight ship that was carrying cattle. We had to make do with terrible crowding, but most importantly, we had finally departed towards our goal.
After the first week all our food was used up. We had thought that in this amount of time we would already have reached Eretz Yisrael and therefore brought food to last one week. In our distress we went down to the store rooms of the ship and took potatoes which we cut into small slices and divided among the members. As a result many became ill with dysentery and others died so we had to put the bodies into the sea. After that we suffered from a lack of water, which was spoiled, diluted with chlorine and distributed with a cup. In these terrible conditions we were worried about keeping up morale and chose a culture committee whose members went from bed to bed, sang songs, told jokes and encouraged the members as much as possible.
After a month of travel filled with suffering and travails, we were notified that passengers from a burning boat of ma'apilim (illegal immigrants) would be added to our boat and they had a large store of food. We made a bridge of ropes and helped 600 of them to leave their burning boat and come on to ours, which of course added to the unbelievable crowding but they brought much food with them. Our boat continued to wander around the sea for another month, travelling at night and hiding during the day because no port allowed us to anchor. When we reached the area of the port in Beirut we asked for fuel

for the boat. They didn't allow us to come close to the port, but for payment that came from Eretz Yisrael, a petrol boat came out to us and refueled the boat.
From there we sailed to the area of Netanya that was known as a place for (illegally) entering Eretz Yisrael and signaled the shore that we wanted to debark. The English discovered the signal and shot their guns at the boat killing a few of us. This happened on a Thursday night and on Friday morning we assembled for a general meeting and in our great anguish we decided that we would reach the shore no matter what or we would sink the ship. We also swore an oath before the dead that were lying near us that we would not leave until we could bury them in the holy earth of Eretz Yisrael. At 12 noon, fifty persons were chosen from among those who knew how to swim and were told to notify the people on the shore that when the boat came close they should immediately come out to receive us.
On Sabbath eve, at 10 o'clock, the people started leaving the boat and some even carried others on their shoulders. About 250 people managed to leave until the English noticed what was happening and signaled us to stop or they would shoot at the boat. Eventually they boarded the ship and arrested everyone. Nevertheless, we received encouragement from the personnel of the Jewish Agency not to panic or be afraid. After they managed somehow to come to an agreement with the English, we climbed onto vehicles of the bus company Egged and were transferred to Sarafand. We stayed there for a whole week under the rule of a military camp until members from the kibbutzim came and brought us to the Borochov school in Givatayim where they divided us into groups to be sent to various kibbutzim.
I was sent to Ramat-Rahel where I worked for two years. After that I worked in a potash company in the northern part of the Dead Sea and other work in building the country and in its defense. Thus I earned for myself and my family the right to settle as citizens in the yearned for Eretz Yisrael.
Translated by Esther Mann Snyder In the middle of the night between the ninth and tenth of October 1939, I got off at the train station in Baranovichi from the freight train that arrived as usual. I had to wait for a few hours until early morning to get on the train that leaves Baranovichi to Vilna so that I could reach home - to Maytchet. At night Yakov Okun, May G-d revenge his blood, met me at the train station and asked in surprise, Nachum, what are you doing here, they said in Maytchet that you went to Eretz Yisrael?! These words were emphasized due to the
[Page 190]
unordinary atmosphere after 40 days of Soviet occupation. He told me that my young brother Moshe, May G-d revenge his blood, was also waiting for the train that would return him home from Baranovichi. I didn't find him at the train station because he had already boarded the train and was waiting for it to start.
The rumor that I was in Eretz Yisrael was only a successful ruse that I had planned a few weeks before the start of the war when no one even imagined that our town would be conquered by the Soviets. In order to understand this I must return to an earlier period. In 1935 I was studying in the Yeshiva Bet Yosef in Lahovitz. At that time a few friends got together and we founded the branch of Hehalutz HaMizrahi in town with the intention of joining training groups so we would be able to go to Eretz Yisrael, after a while. In general, during the 1930's, the youth from all the movements thronged to the training groups due to their enthusiasm for the idea of shivat Zion (returning to Zion) among the youth of Poland. Also the youth of Maytchet dreamed of going to Eretz Yisrael and a number of young people left the town and joined training groups.
I remember the youth, who during those years went to the groups sponsored by Poalei Zion and Hehalutz - Laibel Shmulovitz and Chaya Rabinovitz - both of whom succeeded in going to Eretz Yisrael and whom I met there; unfortunately both of them are no longer alive. Shilem Rabinovitz, Leibl Pintzinski and another few members did not make it to Eretz Yisrael and perished in the holocaust. In addition, Pesach Melnikovski and Yehuda Shevchik, may they live long lives, live today in Israel. Also the youth from Hashomer Hatzair joined the training groups and went to Eretz Yisrael, some before the holocaust and others after it. They include Hemda Lubrani nee Margolin, Sarah Biribis nee Boretcky, Hannah Mechtiger nee Boretcky, and Yachna Ezrahi nee Belski, Reuven Rabinovitz and Yitzhak Movshovitz - all of them in Israel today. Some youth from Poalei Agudat Yisrael went to the training groups: Dov Shlomovitz who managed to reach Eretz Yisrael and Shalom Romanovski zl, who didn't go to Eretz Yisrael, survived the holocaust, emigrated to the Unied States , raised a famly and passed away in 1968. Some of the youth of Maytchet also joined Hehalutz Hamizrahi and two of them succeeded in reaching Eretz Yisrael - Yitzhak Lublinski and the writer of this article.
In our town of Maytchet, despite it being a small town, the youth organized in various movements as was the case in other towns in the area. There was even a group from the Bund, however, most of the youth belonged to Zionist pioneer movements, and the intention was always to reach Eretz Yisrael. However, unfortunately, the process was very lengthy, the gates to Israel were locked, the Mandate government limited the immigration and did not allocate enough certificates for all the pioneers and thus many of them remained for many years in the training groups until they finally reached Eretz Yisrael. This was also my fate. In May of 1935, immediately after Pesach, I left the group

in Brisk which is near the River Bug. I stayed at the kibbutz for six months and then moved to another kibbutz that was in Antopol near Kobrin. Again, I stayed for half a year and I then requested to transfer to a different kibbutz where there were young pioneers of my age. The situation of aliya to Eretz Yisrael worsened and I didn't see any chance of leaving for Eretz Yisrael soon. Therefore, I preferred - at least from a social aspect - to join a kibbutz more appropriate for my age and to live there and wait patiently until my turn would come to make aliya. Indeed, right after Pesach 1936 I transferred to a kibbutz named Ovadia, which was in the town of Slavkov, which was located between the cities of Olkush and Dombrova-Gornicha, in the area of Zaglembia. This kibbutz was the first kibbutz of Hehalutz Hamizrahi in Poland where the pioneers were organized in groups and cycles on a cooperative basis to go to Eretz Yisrael and continue kibbutz life there. The people were of a high standard and I found my place and full satisfaction there.
During the years I spent in kibbutz Slavkov, a number of cycles of members made aliya but due to the limited aliya and the scarcity of certificates, it was decided to make aliya in any way possible. And indeed, a number of members made aliya through Aliya B (illegal immigration) and thus my turn came in the summer of 1939. That summer I went to the district capital in order to undergo medical examinations before military service. When it was determined that I was capable of serving in the army, the kibbutz began to hasten the process of making aliya. Then it was decided that I would go to Eretz Yisrael at the end
[Page 193]
of August that summer. Thus, at the beginning of the month I traveled home to Maytchet to bid farewell to the family. At home, I didn't tell them and didn't reveal to anyone that I was about to go on Aliya B. I completed all the final preparations, they dressed me from head to toe, packed new clothes in a large new suitcase, and in midmonth I said goodbye to my family and went on my way to Warsaw. Since my wife Tzipora, who was then my girlfriend from the kibbutz, was also traveling to her home in Kowel to prepare for her aliya to the Land of Israel in a legal fashion, we decided that on the way from Maytchet to Warsaw I would go to Kowel for a few days to meet her family. Then, in midAugust 1939 I reached Kowel; and there I awaited additional instructions from the center in Warsaw.
During those days that I waited for the notice to arrive that I could start my journey, I sat down and wrote a few letters. I sent them to my friend Baruch M. who was already in TiratZvi, including letters to my parents in Maytchet. and I asked my friend to send these letters according to the dates I had written on them so that the family wouldn't know that I was going on Aliya B and thus would save them from undue worry regarding my path of aliya. Indeed, my friend did as requested. Immediately after he received the letters, he sent the first one to my parents, in which I informed them that I boarded the boat which was sailing to the Land of Israel, and I would write them again shortly on the journey or when I arrived at the coast. He did not succeed in sending out the rest of the letters, for the war had already broken out. However, the first letter that my friend sent to my parents in my name arrived in Maytchet in a miraculous fashion after the outbreak of the war. In this way, my parents receive the good news, that I was apparently in the Land of Israel.
[Page 194]
On Tuesday, October 10, 1939, early in the morning, I left the train in the station of Maytchet, while my brother Moshe got off from another coach, while returning in the same train from Baranovichi home to Maytchet, this was because I hadn't been able to find him in Baranovichi. While we walked together from the station he told me that he had had a feeling that the letter he received from me from Eretz Yisrael was just a ruse, and that in reality it was written by me but not sent by me because he recognized that the handwriting on the envelope wasn't mine. He said that it was good that it was sent because his parents were very worried about their eldest son, Yaakov, who had been drafted into the reserves of the Polish army and they hadn't heard from him for six weeks after the defeat of that army. When my letter arrived it removed one worry from their hearts.
When we, my brother and I, entered our home and my parents saw me they couldn't believe their eyes. My brother's guess that I sent the letter in order to relieve some of the family's worries was correct and the plan succeeded.

Luke Bryan Underwear Toss at CMT Awards
Sexy Country Star Luke Bryan Celebrates CMT Award With Underwear Toss to Crowd
Last night, the country stars shined brightly at the CMT Music Awards. And one of the big winners of the night also happens to be one of the sexiest cowboys around, Luke Bryan. Even host Kristen Bell was enamored by the crooner. When plopping herself down between Luke and cutie Jake Owen, she said, "I didn't know I'd be sitting right in the middle of Hunksville, TN, population two."
Luke continued to please the ladies throughout the night, performing his hot hit "Drunk on You," and then giving a sweet shout-out to his wife when accepting male video of the year for "I Don't Want This Night to End." In regards to the sexy video he said, "When I came home to show my wife this video, I removed all the bullets out of our house. And I want to thank her for not going to buy more bullets to shoot me with." But the real highlight of the night was when Luke made some lucky lady's day (and possibly life) by having presenter Tom Arnold toss a certain intimate piece of his clothing into the audience for him. When Luke won in 2010, he threw his jacket into the crowd, so this time he went for something even more special — his "lucky camouflage underwear." Needless to say, some young women in the crowd went a little crazy in their attempt to grab those skivvies. Watch the clip now!

- Baryon number and electric charge fluctuations in Pb+Pb collisions at SPS energies (2006)
- Event-by-event fluctuations of the net baryon number and electric charge in nucleus-nucleus collisions are studied in Pb+Pb at SPS energies within the HSD transport model. We reveal an important role of the fluctuations in the number of target nucleon participants. They strongly influence all measured fluctuations even in the samples of events with rather rigid centrality trigger. This fact can be used to check different scenarios of nucleus-nucleus collisions by measuring the multiplicity fluctuations as a function of collision centrality in fixed kinematical regions of the projectile and target hemispheres. The HSD results for the event-by-event fluctuations of electric charge in central Pb+Pb collisions at 20, 30, 40, 80 and 158 A GeV are in a good agreement with the NA49 experimental data and considerably larger than expected in a quark-gluon plasma. This demonstrate that the distortions of the initial fluctuations by the hadronization phase and, in particular, by the final resonance decays dominate the observable fluctuations.

Tomatoes Linked to Lower Stroke Risk
Reported by Dr. Julielynn Wong:
Tomatoes are linked to a decreased risk of stroke in men, a new study finds.
The study, published Monday in the journal Neurology, involved more than 1,000 Finnish men between 46 and 65 who never had a stroke before.
These men had their blood levels of lycopene - a powerful antioxidant found in tomatoes - tested at the beginning of the study. They were followed over an average period of 12 years to see if they developed strokes.
The researchers found that men with the highest blood levels of lycopene were 55 percent less likely to have a stroke, compared to those with the lowest levels. These results held up even after adjusting for the age of the men.
"Eating tomatoes and tomato-based foods is associated with a lower risk of any stroke," said lead study author Jouni Karppi of the department of medicine at the Institute of Public Health and Clinical Nutrition at the University of Eastern Finland. "This study adds to the evidence that a diet high in fruits and vegetables is associated with a lower risk of stroke."
Stroke occurs when a clot blocks the brain's blood supply or a blood vessel in the brain ruptures. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, each year, more than 795,000 Americans have strokes, which can result in paralysis, difficulty with speech, and emotional issues. Stroke is a leading cause of death in the United States; it's estimated that every four minutes, someone dies of a stroke.
How can tomatoes and other lycopene-rich foods - such as pink grapefruits, papaya, watermelon and apricots - prevent stroke? Lycopene may help reduce stroke risk by preventing the formation of clots that obstruct the brain's blood supply, Karppi said.
What's exciting about these findings is that it's not hard to raise your lycopene levels. Tomatoes can be plentiful and cheap.
"It is easy to decrease your risk of stroke by eating tomatoes and tomato-based products," Karppi said. "The results support the recommendation that people get more than five servings of fruits and vegetables a day."
This study further supports the importance of consuming fruits and vegetables rather than nutritional supplements in the prevention of conditions like stroke and heart disease, said Dr. Lori Mosca, professor of medicine at Columbia University Medical Center and director of preventive cardiology at New York-Presbyterian Hospital in New York City, who was not involved in the study.
"Tomato intake has also been associated with a lower risk of prostate cancer," she said, "And tomatoes may just be a secret weapon in the fight against stroke."

Bhai mai footpath pe let jaata hu.. ek baari mei kissa khatam kar de. Installment mei kyu jaan le raha hai
The female lead requires some good acting skills (if one goes by the Korean film). If they want a star in there, there aren't too many choices available. Deepika can bring in the audience as well as good performance but there are not too many options who can bring both to the table. Kareena is stale. Katrina is a star but poor performer. The likes of Jaqueline, Sonakshi do not bring anything.
HeHe … if only wigs and beards cud act !
again idea stolen from Aamir? aamir shares everything with sallu as a friend and this man…..well, i hope it is not the case…
Extremely well said there and hope you meant that Ali Abbas Zafar bhai – " The most important thing to make a film is the REASON " why you want to tell this story ?" .
If you could walk the talk here like the earlier ones by even 60% there is winner at hand!
There is no comparison and Kamal remained one of the finest till he started to write, produce and direct all by himself and audience was "treated" to the man's incurable narcissism which has now made him inconsequential. 'Immateriality' of many of these past stalwarts has relegated and confined them to 'Marg Darshak Mandal'. A course is being charted for New India which is at a bigger level with bigger reach and longevity. Data on these new age superstars show the way it is done to establish the longest streak at the Bollywood top. Looking at future serving, their plate seems full and position safe for another 5 years until at least 2024 which is the next cycle. Until then let's just hold horses, sit tight and enjoy these defunct as 'Marg Darshak' to Hindi cinema.
Bharat trailer launch: Salman Khan's five looks to be unveiled before the grand launch
In the run-up to Bharat's trailer launch, Salman Khan to release a series of posters displaying his five different looks in the film
The countdown to the trailer launch of Salman Khan's Bharat began yesterday as he unveiled the first poster of the Ali Abbas Zafar-directed venture. The poster sees the superstar as an old man, replete with grey hair, facial fuzz and glasses. Now, mid-day has learnt that Khan has devised a special strategy to grab maximum eyeballs for his passion project — in the run-up to the promo launch on April 24, the team will release 10 posters over the next 10 days, each showcasing a different look of Khan, leading lady Katrina Kaif and other principal characters.
Says a trade source, "The film charts India's journey from its independence in 1947 to 2010, as witnessed by Salman's character Bharat. Both Salman and Katrina will sport five different looks as they age in the course of the narrative. Since there has been immense curiosity around their on-screen avatars, Salman suggested that each look be released individually. So, over the next five days, the team will unveil five posters, each depicting a decade of his life. While one sees him as a young acrobat in a circus, another has him as a middle-aged naval officer, and one more as a miner. This will be followed by a poster each of Katrina, Tabu, Jackie Shroff, Disha Patani and Sunil Grover."
Bharat Poster Featuring 'Young' Salman Khan Has An International Fan – Paris Hilton
In the latest poster of Bharat, Salman Khan appears as a daredevil stuntman of a circus
"Guess who thinks the latest poster of Bharat, featuring Salman Khan, is cool? Paris Hilton! Soon after Salman Khan shared the new poster, in which he features as the title character from the year 1964, Paris Hilton posted a 'cool' emoticon.
"….In 2014, Salman Khan and Paris Hilton attended Venkateshwara Hatcheries owner Balaji Rao's birthday in Hyderabad after which several pictures of them dancing to Mika Singh's live music trended on the Internet. At that time, Salman Khan's sister Arpita Khan Sharma had also posted pictures of Paris Hilton wearing Salman's lucky bracelet."
Source: NDTV
This is what Tubelight should have been…Blockbuster guaranteed.
I am a little confused with these posters. Salman in different looks but Katrina is the same from 70s to 90s?
A problem of being in hero-centric movies perhaps?
On a lighter note,I would definitely want to eat or drink whatever she has been having if one can maintain looks for a period of 20 years or more!

Posts Tagged 'status'
a new life
I've just a week left to go before I leave my job of nearly 15 years. How do I feel? Terrified.
The emotional turmoil of whether or not to choose redundancy over a post at the organisation that was unlikely to suit me or my family commitments was agonising.
The response from friends was overwhelming: leave and leave now.
Even from those who were choosing to stay there. When I asked why they were not choosing to take their own advice, the responses were mixed and not always in tune with the words they had spoken to me.
Fear seemed to be a major factor: fear of the unknown, fear that they wouldn't get another job. These are understandable – and I had the same feelings.
They loved their job. Same here: I wouldn't have spent almost 15 years in the same place if I didn't connect with what I did.
I'm not criticising my friends for choosing their route and staying: I'd have done the same if I'd have assurances from management about the jobs I could have done, the hours and (crucially) the shifts I would have been expected to work.
No assurances were forthcoming. At the last minute (just minutes before the deadline), I ticked the box that was to change me life and took the document to work.
I took the plunge and am going. Next week.
I've cleared most of my desk and but still need to leave forwarding emails to contacts.
I've read counselling notes (largely ineffective), tried to keep motivated at work (extremely difficult), done the grieving (that surprised me more than anything), been angry (even though I "chose" to go).
Now I'm in the final stages.
But then what?
Change is a difficult concept for me. I can embrace some changes easily and readily and others leave me dumbstruck.
I can't rationalise why I feel so confused. Am I afraid to admit that I might define myself by what I do, rather than who I am?
When meeting someone new and I'm asked about me, I don't tell them about bringing up my children, my voluntary work or my life. I tell them that I'm a journalist. That is my status, but is that me, the person?
While it's true that I am a journalist, I am much more than that. I've just got to learn to remember that after next week.

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon today accused the tobacco industry of "aggressive" opposition to measures to contain tobacco use which he says could kill up to one billion people in the world this century.
In his message on the World No Tobacco Day, Mr. Ban said that the World Day came at a time "when the tobacco industry is taking ever more aggressive steps to undermine efforts to reduce the global menace of tobacco."
Tobacco kills by causing cancer, heart disease and respiratory diseases. It is one of the leading preventable risk factors for non-communicable diseases. Every year, about 5 million people die because they use tobacco. Another 600,000 people die from exposure to second-hand smoke.
"While governments and the international health community try to implement effective measures to contain tobacco use and protect the health of people, their efforts are being aggressively opposed by an industry whose products kill people," the Secretary-General said in his message.
"If we do not step up our efforts to control it, tobacco could kill up to one billion people this century." Mr. Ban accuses the tobacco industry of battling against protective measures with "no thought for peoples' health".
He praised the success of the World Health Organization Framework Convention on Tobacco Control, noting that some countries have reduced smoking by up to 25 per cent within only three years from implementing strong tobacco control measures in line with the Framework Convention.
"Let us resist the industry's attacks and pursue our vision of a tobacco-free world," Mr. Ban said in his message.

Story by the Associated Press; curated by Dave Urbanski
MURRYSVILLE, Pa. (AP) — A high school student who was among the most critically injured in a stabbing rampage outside Pittsburgh has undergone multiple surgeries and will have another one this weekend, but he is improving and has been able to communicate with his family, hospital officials said Saturday.
Jared Boger, 17, was stabbed in the chest, the blade plunging nearly to his spine and missing his heart by fractions of an inch. He remained in critical condition Saturday at UPMC Presbyterian Hospital.
"He is writing and is able to nod and answer questions," said UPMC spokeswoman Cyndy McGrath, who did not mention Boger by name.

Boger is among four students still hospitalized in the wake of Wednesday's attack at Franklin Regional High School. One 15-year-old boy two 16-year-olds were listed in critical condition in the intensive care unit of Forbes Regional Hospital on Saturday. A 14-year-old student was discharged from Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC on Saturday afternoon.
Alex Hribal, 16, faces four counts of attempted homicide and 21 counts of aggravated assault in the rampage that injured 21 students and a security guard. Police and Hribal's lawyer have said they don't yet have a motive.
Boger's brother, Carter Boger, told WPXI-TV via Twitter: "Right when Jared woke up, he wrote, 'It's going to b OK, mom. I love u' and got teary eyed."
Dr. Louis Alarcon, medical director of trauma surgery at UPMC Presbyterian, said Friday the teenager's prognosis is "very good ... but there are a lot of hurdles before he comes off the ventilator, comes out of the ICU and leaves the hospital. We don't anticipate problems, but we're being vigilant."
School officials posted a notice Saturday saying the school would resume classes Wednesday, a week after the attacks. Teachers will return to work Monday and students will be able to visit with their families on Tuesday. Counseling services will be available.
It's not clear when the high school will reopen. Officials hoped it would be ready by Monday, but a restoration company won't be finished with its work by then. Dan Stevens, spokesman for the Westmoreland County Department of Public Safety, said the cleanup work is critical.
"It's important that the school looks the way it did Tuesday," the day before the attacks, he told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

A pair of Pennsylvanians got a little trashed one night earlier this month and attempted to beat the crap out of a Ford Fusion. When they realized their fists and feet could only do so much damage they then tried to blow up the car. With tampons. Sadly, it didn't work.
Patricia Elyse Deshong, 25, and Quentin Adam Deshong, 22, were arrested on January 7th outside the Hillside Tavern in Metal Township, Penn., after someone called the police complaining they were pummeling a 2006 Ford Fusion.
Police found numerous wires and hoses disconnected from the engine, dents on the side, smashed windows, and blood in the seats. Police also found tampons shoved in both the oil cap and the gas tank, with ashes in the area of both openings. Investigators suspect they tried to blow up the car using the tampons.
After the pair were arrested the car's owner, Falon Leigh Clark, arrived in a pickup truck being driven by Gary Scott Boggs. Because this is rural Pennsylvania, it turns out Boggs was drunk and tried to flee the scene but was captured.
When Patricia Deshong was being booked she proceeded to threaten to kill the trooper who handcuffed her to a bench. Lovely pair, them.

Community Engagement
Community engagement requires a collaborative process that provides benefits to all partners, including: access to information and resources, skill enhancement, and participation in solving community issues. The Program for the Elimination of Cancer Disparities (PECaD) at Siteman Cancer Center works to engage local communities and collaborate with community partners to foster healthy communities and environments that reduce cancer disparities. PECaD interacts with communities through a broad range of activities (outreach and education, community partnerships, community research training) and seeks to engage with communities in a way that is collaborative, culturally appropriate, and inclusive.
PECaD seeks to align projects with 11 community engagement principles:
- Focus on local relevance and determinants of health
- Acknowledge the community
- Disseminate findings and knowledge gained to all partners
- Seek and use the input of community partners
- Involve a cyclical and iterative process in pursuit of objectives
- Foster co-learning, capacity building, and co-benefit for all partners
- Build on strengths and resources within the community
- Facilitate collaborative, equitable partnerships
- Integrate and achieve a balance of all partners
- Involve all partners in the dissemination process
- Plan for a long-term process and commitment
PECaD achieves these principles through outreach and education, community partnerships including the breast cancer community partnership, the colorectal cancer community partnership and the prostate cancer community partnership, and the community research training program.
Outreach and Education
Outreach and Education are important pillars of PECaD's work. We identify medically underserved parts of the community and related barriers to quality cancer care; enhance community health, access to quality cancer care and health information; evaluate efforts to promote and bring education and prevention messages to the community; and develop plans for long-term continuation of outreach and education.
Over the years, Siteman Cancer Center and PECaD have participated in or hosted numerous community cancer prevention, awareness and education activities, and reported research findings back to the community. Here are a few examples:
- A monthly cancer survivor story in the St. Louis American newspaper that provides readers with a glimpse into a community member's cancer journey. Accompanying each story is an ask-the-doctor column that provides in-depth cancer education and prevention information and local community resources. The newspaper publishes 70,000 copies weekly and is distributed at more than 845 locations throughout St. Louis city, St. Louis County, St. Charles County and portions of Illinois. Readership of the newspaper is largely African-American.
- Developing cancer prevention and awareness messages:
- Collaborating with Siteman's mobile mammography van to bring the van to community events.
- In collaboration with the Washington University School of Medicine Becker Medical Library and the St. Louis Public Library (SLPL), PECaD has set up cancer information kiosks in several city library branches. Kiosks are located in SLPL's Schlafly, Carpenter, Buder and Julia Davis branches. They offer local cancer resource materials as well as cancer education and prevention information.
- PECaD collaborates with churches to host workshops that focus on cancer health and wellness. The workshops provide churches that have or are building health ministries with consultation, support and state-of-the-art cancer prevention information for their programs. They also link community partners to information about local cancer prevention resources and research.
- PECaD provides podcasts to Minds Eye Radio, a radio station and virtual newsstand for people experiencing blindness, low vision or other physical disability that prevents them from reading. These podcasts focus on topics that educate the community on cancer and cancer prevention. Below are links to their "Health Beyond Barriers Podcasts."
If you have planned a community event or activity and would like PECaD to participate or to get more information on outreach and education, contact PECaD at 314-747-1189 or email@example.com.
Community Research Training
The Community Research Fellows Training (CRFT) Program is a comprehensive public health research training course at Washington University School of Medicine and Siteman Cancer Center. The program objective is to promote the role of underserved populations in the research enterprise by enhancing community capacity for community based participatory research. CRFT program goals are to 1) train community members to become good consumers of research, 2) understand how to use research as a tool in improving health outcomes in their communities, and 3) increase community capacity for collaboration with academic research institutions in mutually beneficial projects and programs. The curriculum has 15 sessions, each is a three hour lay-friendly version of Master of Public Health (MPH) curriculum topics including: health literacy, ethics, cultural competency, epidemiology, quantitative and qualitative research methods, chronic disease prevention, clinical trials, study design, program evaluation and grant writing. The training is designed to implement culturally appropriate ways to increase research literacy among community members. Over 100 community members have completed the program and several serve on the CRFT Patient Research Advisory Board. For more information please contact email@example.com.

Europe spotlights space weather hazards
ESA's Space Situational Awareness programme is taking centre stage during the ninth European Space Weather Week, with experts showcasing a recently opened space weather service centre and highlighting European space weather research and development.
European Space Weather Week, 5-9 November 2012, is the largest annual European space-weather conference and brings together scientists, engineers, industry and policy-makers in Brussels, Belgium to discuss the latest advances in the crucial topic of solar effects on Earth.
It's a fitting venue for ESA to showcase recent developments in the space weather activities of the Agency's Space Situational Awareness (SSA) programme.
Space weather refers to the environmental conditions in Earth's magnetosphere, ionosphere and thermosphere due to the Sun, and the solar wind that can affect spaceborne and ground-based systems and services.
As part of SSA, the Agency's space weather specialists are focusing on developing warning services to help protect satellites and ground infrastructure. These services will enable end-users in a wide range of economically vital sectors – like gas/oil drilling, banking and navigation – to mitigate the effects on their systems, reducing costs and improving safety and reliability.
Space weather warning services
This year's meeting provides the first opportunity to showcase ESA's new 'precursor' space-weather service network and the Service Coordination Centre recently established at the Space Pole in Brussels.
"The centre is now offering an initial set of limited services using European space weather sensors on the ground and in orbit," says Juha-Pekka Luntama, Head of Space Weather at the SSA programme office.
"These provide near-realtime updates on plasma, magnetic fields, radiation, particle flows and other physical happenings in space, and we intend to expand the range of services provided in the coming years."
The centre provides daily support to customers accessing the precursor services and is operated under contract to ESA by a consortium led by the Belgian Institute for Space Aeronomy and the Royal Observatory Belgium.
Serving scientists, industry and policy-makers
The week includes a focus on the effects of space weather on satellite operations, incorporating presentations from satellite operators describing current practise and the scientific community presenting latest results.
Our Sun is more active now than it has been for the past four years. Increasingly, energetic particles and radiation are being ejected toward Earth, posing significant hazards for our space and ground infrastructure.
According to current predictions, in mid-2013, the Sun will go through its most active phase in the current solar cycle.

A Message from
Award-Winning Actress Diane Ladd
For decades, I have been a fan of the life's work of Edgar Cayce. I want to take a moment to express why I think his gift is important and what it still means to us today.
Although there are literally hundreds of books about Cayce's life and work, his amazing psychic talent, his insights into hundreds of topics from personal spirituality and ancient mysteries to holistic health and personal guidance, what stands out for me is that he made it abundantly clear that each and every one of us has a special gift.
For some, that gift might be serving as a wonderful and supporting parent. Some find a talent with counseling or teaching. Others might find it in avenues as diverse as business or even nature. There are many roles that people find in the healing professions. In my case, the gift that called to me has been the Creative Arts. There is something that each and every one of us is called to do—a role that perhaps no one else can fill as well as we can.
Cayce's life is, in part, the story of a regular individual who had incredible access to universal knowledge and information. It wasn't a gift that he readily accepted, at first. In fact, he was very reluctant to take on the role of medical clairvoyant but it was the efficacy of the information, and the way that he could see that the information helped people change their lives for the better that convinced him that his gift was a role that he needed to take on to help so many others.
There is a difference, in my opinion, between knowledge and wisdom. Knowledge is something that is too often changeable or something that might be important one moment and gone the next. Wisdom, on the other hand, is something that is relevant forever and a day. The Edgar Cayce information and his life's work embodies wisdom.
Both the Cayce legacy and his gift of helping others endure even to this day. Edgar Cayce's Association for Research and Enlightenment (A.R.E.), the organization he founded more than 80 years ago, continues his vision of helping people to transform their lives for the better through ideas and information found in his psychic readings. On behalf of A.R.E., I invite you to consider joining Mr. Cayce's organization so that you can come to know for yourself how his gift can be helpful in your own life—physically, mentally, and spiritually. You can read about the benefits of membership and explore a sample issue of Venture Inward magazine at EdgarCayce.org/join.
Diane Ladd is an American actress, film director, producer and author, having appeared in more than 300 roles, on television and film.

Race. Ethnicity. These are two words that seem similar. But they are two words that mean different things.
When I studied cultural studies at university, the terms 'race' and 'ethnicity' often appeared within academic texts that I read. The more I read about these two words, the more I realised they are more complicated than they sound.
Commonly, 'race' and 'ethnicity' encompass grouping and categorisation. But each word is its own concept. As people and culture change, history and stories rewrite themselves; each word builds upon lessons of the past and revelations of the present.
Depending on when and where we speak about 'race' or 'ethnicity', we usually have a different idea of what each term means – biologically, socially and emotionally.
When we speak of race, we often associate the word with physical features and traits. Race is often something we define based on what we see and unconscious first impressions in the physical sense. That is, race relates to the way we look, the physical features we are born with or exemplify. The colour of our skin and eyes, the texture of our hair, the clothes that we wear, our facial structure, our height and stature – all of this commonly defines a particular race.
From a biology and anthropological perspective, archaeologist William Haviland argues race is 'defined as a subspecies, or a population of a species differing geographically, morphologically, or genetically from other populations of the same species.' Similarly, author Raj S. Bhopal mentioned race in the biological sciences is 'one of the divisions of humankind based on physical characteristics'. Commonly, white, black, Asian, European, African, Hispanic, Indian and Middle Eastern are just some broad terms deemed as race.
At a young age, I got the impression people look markedly different from each other. One of my first recollections of childhood in Australia: I was about 5 years old in preschool, standing on the grass under the sun during PE class. Two of my Western classmates took turns picking teammates for their basketball team. I saw white kid with blonde hair get picked, another white kid with blonde hair get picked, white kid with light brown hair get picked…until there was me with yellow skin, dark-brown-hair, much less stockier built than anyone else around me, standing alone. Waiting to be picked…last.
When we speak of ethnicity, we often think about the common traits shared by a certain group of people. The customs we practice, the languages we speak, our religion and heritage are some markers of ethnicity.
Author and lawyer Donald L. Horowitz argues ethnicity is a concept that 'embraces groups differentiated by color, language, and religion'. Norwegian anthropologist Steve Fenton proposes ethnicity is 'a group which fundamentally shares cultural values…interaction…a membership which identifies itself and identifiable by others'. Often, we feel part of a certain ethnicity or ethnic group when we relate to the values, mannerisms and life choices of others in the group – and as a group we relate to where we've been, where we are from, what we've experienced.
When differentiating the two terms, we can think of race as something that we see and ethnicity as something we feel emotionally and spiritually. Racial identities are typically thought of as encompassing multiple ethnic identities, as sociologists Stephen Cornell and Douglas Hartmann suggested. More recently, philosopher Naomi Zack argues no single gene determines a person's race in the context of biological sciences research, and so race is a social construction, 'a changing idea and system of behavior that human beings invent and reinvent about themselves and others'. Building upon this sentiment, increasingly both race and ethnicity are seen as more than their traditional meanings, instead seen as social constructs as constructed by the choices we make.
On race as a social construction: in a research article on human genetics published in 2013, four scientists hypothesised 'there is not a single absolute genetic difference, meaning no single variant where all Africans have one variant and all Europeans another one.' For a decade the Humane Genome Project mapped genes and sequenced human DNA collected across different continents and purported there is actually significantly less genes than thought; human beings are 99.9% similar in their genetic makeup and similar at molecular level (this argument has always been debatable with scientists uncovering that each of us have different copies of genes).
It has also been suggested in the US that racial categories 'no longer exist…due to later policy changes, people from these groups began to be accepted into the wider "white" race'. Anywhere in general, the same can also be said of ethnicity: practices of a cultural group can and do change over time through assimilation, invention and adoption of new practices and acquiring of new tastes as we broaden our horizons professionally and personally. In other words, 'race' and 'ethnic' are ever changing, fluid terms. Racial and ethnic identities are constantly changing and never the same at different moments – different identities for each individual.
When I went to an international primary school in Malaysia, half of my classmates were Chinese, Malay and Indian Malaysians and the other half westerners from the US, Britain and Australia. Every day all of us learnt English, maths, science and Chinese under a shipping container-esque, tinned-roof classroom – learning was our common goal. We'd partake in Indian dances, fairy dances and Chinese ribbon twirling each year. Seeing and being a part of a class of kids with different physical features and different speech patterns wasn't surprising; it was a normal part of life and most of us got along.
Notably, during this time of my life I realised although some of us look alike, we might feel worlds apart. There were times when I got a taste of 'white privilege'. During recess, my Malaysian classmates liked shoving each other aside and running towards me going, 'I want to hang out with Mabel. Because she's Australian. She has such white skin'. Part of me felt amused (I didn't see the sun a lot living in Melbourne before moving to Asia). Part of me felt flattered (popular!). But all of me felt very alone (popular for the wrong reasons). Too white to be Asian.
In Australia, the landscape of race and ethnicity has always been an evolving one. The British colonised Australia in the 1700s and 1800s and during this period convicts from Europe were resettled here. The White Australia Policy was adopted in the early 1900s along with the Immigration Restriction Act, restricting 'non-white' immigration. The policy was gradually abolished in 1973 and subsequently, migration has been steadily increasing. Today, Indigenous Australians are regarded as the First Peoples of Australia and according to the 2016 Census, 26% of Australians are born overseas with England, New Zealand, China and Philippines topping the overseas-born countries.
What it means to be 'Australian' has changed over the years. 'Australian' is a nationality, but it's also a race and ethnicity, namely a way of life and also a social idea. Also in the 2016 Census, 33.5% Australians identified their ancestry as 'Australian' and 36.1% 'English'. In the face of cultural diversity, one could feel caught in between the race or ethnicity or any group they feel that they should belong to – which they shouldn't but can't help it. One might not have the stereotypical features of a certain racial group yet are born into a family of that particular 'race' – think someone who has parents of two different ancestries. One might not feel or fit stereotypical ethnic traits and so don't feel like they belong to a particular ethnic group.
Quite often I've never felt entitled to be Chinese, never Asian enough be Asian. When I went to high school in Singapore, for some strange reason then my dark brown hair was frizzy and curly, very much contrasting with the smooth, straight hair all my female Chinese classmates had. Every time my Chinese hairdresser gave me a haircut, she exclaimed, 'Look at that curly hair! Like a gwai mui (鬼妹,white woman)!'. Also, my Mandarin was so bad that my school made an exception and allowed me to learn Bahasa Melayu as a second language (Mandarin was compulsory for Chinese kids in Singapore schools, Malay compulsory for those of Malay descent).
On the subject of changing populations, it's worth noting Charles Darwin's Theory Of Evolution. The English naturalist proposed species develop through 'natural selection of small, inherited variations to compete, survive and reproduce'. Thomas Huxley coined the term Darwinism in April 1860, a term frequently used to describe a natural kind of physical change. Despite the heated debates against this theory, evolution of genes can happen in the most mysterious of ways and may come out of nowhere: in recent years scientists discovered 'orphan genes' aren't duplicated from existing genes and despite further gene sequencing experimentation, these orphans didn't return to a particular gene family.
At times hierarchical tensions, racism and discrimination manifest alongside different racial and ethnic groups, and some groups or individuals will be regarded as part of the minority in a given space. Sociologist Louis Wirth defines a minority group as 'any group of people who, because of their physical or cultural characteristics, are singled out from the others in the society in which they live for differential and unequal treatment'.
As an Asian Australian living in Melbourne for about a decade now, some moments I feel comfortable in my own skin and other times indifferent. My frizzy hair has become straight and no one pokes fun of it now. Some days I'd get people coming up to me all friendly asking for directions. Some days on the tram to/from work I'd get guys trying to pick me up with the phrase, 'Where are you from?' – guys who are as yellow as me, darker than me, much fairer than me in terms of skin colour but almost always gregarious in terms of mannerisms.
The other weekday around 6pm I was grocery shopping at Coles. The store was peak-hour packed, and I was trying to make my way down the spice-rack aisle. Someone with dark hair was looking at the spices, blocking my way. Two blonde hair girls much taller than us stood next to us, looked at us. They looked at each other and one of them said, 'Those Asians are in the way.' And then they both laughed. I looked at them. They were engrossed in laughing. I looked back at the dark-haired girl. She was gone. I looked behind me. No one was behind me. With what sounded like condescending laughter ringing in my ears, I moved through the emptiness.
When you're different from most around you and feel worlds apart from those whom you want to connect with, you feel caught in the middle. Never feel part of the crowd big or small. Feel nowhere inconspicuously here nor there.
There are many perspectives on what is race and ethnicity, and probably endless perspectives since each of our lives are individual, never the same.
How do you define 'race' and 'ethnicity'?

An Ayurvedic cleanse focuses on resetting that digestive fire, allowing it to rest and strengthen.
The detoxifying nature also supports the bodys own natural mechanisms to remove built up toxins
from the body.
1. The best thing you can do is*drink plenty of luke warm water. Regular consumption of water will
give your body the liquid and lubrication required to flush out the harmful toxins and waste
from the body in a natural manner.
2. Eat more of fibrous food which will help to clean your colon. Fibres improve bowel movement
and make the stool soft, eg. Flax seed and*oats, beans, peas, rice, barley, citrus, strawberry and
apples. Foods high in insoluble fibre include whole wheat, rye, brown rice, barley, cabbage,
beets, carrots, Brussels, sprouts, turnips,*cauliflower*and apple (with skin).
3. Chlorophyll found in green foods such as alfalfa, wheatgrass, barley grass, spirulina and blue-
green algae cleanses and heals the digestive tract.
5. Eat yogurt to keep the colon healthy. Being a probiotic food, yogurt, will introduce*good
bacteria into the gut that promote digestion.
6. Aloe vera*juice can be used to treat a myriad of conditions, including improving digestion,
helping to detox the body, and treating skin conditions. It can be an important all-natural
supplement to a healthy lifestyle when used correctly.*
7. There are many plants in ayurveda which helps in colon cleansing - Aloe Vera, Haritaki, Triphala
which are well known for their detoxification and laxative properties.

Indigestion also called dyspepsia or an upset stomach is a general term that describes discomfort in your upper abdomen. Indigestion is not a disease, but rather some symptoms you experience, including abdominal pain and a feeling of fullness soon after you start eating
There are some home remedies that help to clean the digestive system
Small Indian gall nuts (Bala Haritaki) : 100 gm (Fry, pound and make powder)
Somph seeds : 20 gm (Fry and make powder)
Rock salt (Saindhava lavanam) : 10 gm
Method Of Preparation and Usage :
Mix all the three and store in a bottle. Take half spoon with water after meals.

Doctor charged after loaded handgun found in bathroom of Ellsworth L.L. Bean store
ELLSWORTH, Maine (AP) � Police say a loaded handgun found in the bathroom of an L.L. Bean outlet store in Ellsworth was left there by a doctor.
Ellsworth police have charged 72-year-old Dr. Benjamin Newman of Winter Harbor with reckless conduct. He was not arrested but will be summoned to court to answer to the charge.
A store employee found the gun in a bathroom late Wednesday morning and called police.
Chief John DeLeo says it could have been tragic had a child found the fun.
Police say Newman later contacted the store looking for the gun and was referred to police. He was charged after talking to investigators.
Police say Newman told them he took the gun out of its holster to use the bathroom and simply forgot it.

MIAMI — Florida State University quarterback Jameis Winston, who overcame a rape allegation and won the Heisman trophy, was cited for allegedly stealing crab legs from a grocery store, a source familiar with the investigation told CNN Wednesday.
Winston, a two-sport athlete, was suspended from FSU's baseball team on Wednesday.
The Leon County, Florida, Sheriff's Office is handling the case, the source said.
Winston, only the second freshman to win college football's most coveted award, allegedly walked into a Publix near the FSU campus Tuesday night, ordered some crab legs, and walked out of the store without paying, the source said.
CNN calls to the FSU Police Department and the university's athletic department were not immediately returned.
Winston was not arrested because he was not charged with a crime, the source said. The football star was issued a citation for alleged shoplifting.
In similar cases, most offenders would have to pay a fine, do community service and attend a class related to the incident, the source said.
It was not immediately known what penalties Winston faces.
"I am confident he will complete his community service obligation and the situation will be resolved soon," FSU baseball coach Mike Martin said in a news release.
The school's football coach, Jimbo Fisher, said, "I fully support Coach Martin's decision and will also make sure that Jameis meets all obligations, which I know he will."

Your Peace of the Week
By: Marissa Anteby
Ughhh, my refrigerator is packed with holiday leftovers. If my family didn't finish the dish the first time around, I doubt they're going to like it any better re-heated. So, my plan is to transform my ordinary food in to a brand new meal. I've tried something like this before. Oh yes, I can work magic with a bottle of teriyaki sauce and peach salsa. In the interest of full disclosure (and in case any of my kids ever read this,) the term "work magic" is loosely used here as a euphemism for "smother fish in tangy condiments." Such culinary adventures may not have won over any taste buds but they have been the source of plenty of jokes. (Find all kinds of kosher sauce and salsa at Trader Joe's http://www.traderjoes.com/)
To jump start your imagination, here's a few highlights from my past leftover makeover attempts:
– Re-fashioned spinach quiche in to filling for puff pastry hors d' oeuvres.
– Re-purposed grilled vegetables as layers in lasagna.
– Re-cycled sauteed broccoli and cauliflower for an egg and cheese soufflé.
– Re-ran ginger snap cookies crumbled in to salad.
My theory is not to worry too much about making things perfect. Sometimes the beauty is in the imperfections. Anyway, to me, the menu is a secondary concern to the whole family dining experience. I know it may sound a bit odd, but the interaction is more important. Even if the kids are arguing, there's automatic bonding that takes place when people share a meal together. Go ahead, buy a jar of teriyaki sauce and peach salsa, and you'll see what I mean!
As always, scroll all the way down to post your comments. Let us know what you think about leftovers and sharing meals and laughs with your family. 1 lucky winner will be chosen from people who comment on Marissa's articles. The prize this month is a FREE Restorative Yoga Session from www.embodyinc.com

1. Jimmy Graham, Saints – Graham saw his FPts/G average drop from 12.3 in 2011 to 10.1 this past season but still shapes as the top rated fantasy tight end for 2013 with Sean Payton and Drew Brees leading the charge in New Orleans.
2. Rob Gronkowski, Patriots – Here's what I said last year in assessing Gronk as the number two tight end: "He's a beast but is he a beast that can stay healthy?" After two broken arms in 2012, that assessment holds.
3. Jason Witten, Cowboys – Witten was a PPR demon in 2012 with a career-high 110 receptions for 1,039 yards (the second-highest total of his career) and three touchdowns. For a player who has had such an illustrious career, it is hard to believe that he has topped six receiving touchdowns just twice ten years and that limits his fantasy upside.
4. Greg Olsen, Panthers – In 2012, Olsen finally fulfilled the promise the Bears saw in him when they used a late 1st round pick to grab him in the 2007 draft, hauling in 69 receptions for 843 yards (both career highs) and five touchdowns. The Panthers will have a new offensive coordinator in 2013 but expect more of the same from Olsen.
5. Aaron Hernandez, Patriots – Injuries limited Hernandez to a career-low 10 games in 2012 as he racked up 51 receptions for 483 yards and five touchdowns. His FPts/G averaged dropped 1.7 points to 7.8 but expect more in 2013. However, with Wes Welker likely back in the fold, Hernandez is barely hanging onto top-five status at tight end.
6. Owen Daniels, Texans – Daniels started the season strong with 555 receiving yards and six touchdowns in his first 10 games before slumping badly over in his last five (just 161 receiving yards – he missed one game). At 30 years of age, Daniels isn't likely to improve on his production in 2013.
7. Dennis Pitta, Ravens – Pitta was the epitome of streaky in his breakout 2012 campaign, totaling 94 of his 109 fantasy points in eight games. Look for more production as he enters his fourth year in the league but expect the inconsistency to remain.
8. Brandon Myers, Raiders – Myers was a waiver wire find in 2012, finishing the season with the 5th most receiving yards amongst tight ends and as the 9th ranked fantasy player at his position. A free agent, Myers is expected back in Oakland and shapes up as a top-10 fantasy tight end in 2013.
9. Fred Davis, Redskins – An Achilles injury ended Davis 2012 season prematurely but he remains a young, talented tight end capable of putting together a breakout season in 2013. If only RGII had stayed healthy.
10.Vernon Davis, 49ers – Mercedes Benz talent, Lada production (am I dating myself there?) Davis has seen his yardage and touchdown total decline every season since his career-year in 2009 (965 yards and 13 touchdowns). With Michael Crabtree emerging as Colin Kaepernick's favorite target, Davis rates as a low end TE1 in 2013. After a solid first game with Kaepernick under center (83 yards and a score), Davis managed just six receptions for 61 yards over his final six regular season contests.
11.Jermaine Gresham, Bengals – Gresham has improved upon his reception and yardage count in each of his three season but his performance still leaves something to be desired. At some point, a breakout seems likely but I'm not sold it will happen in 2013.
12. Kyle Rudolph, Vikings – With nine touchdowns, Rudolph was tied with Graham for the second most touchdowns amongst tight ends. Unfortunately, his yardage total was a bit of a bust with just 493 receiving yards, the third lowest total amongst the league's top 25 ranked fantasy tight ends. As you know, relying on touchdown production is generally a recipe for fantasy disaster.
13.Antonio Gates, Chargers – Gates couldn't blame injuries for his poor performance this season as he put up his lowest FPts/G average since his rookie season way back in 2003. His reception total, total yards and touchdowns were either the lowest of the last nine years or tied for it. He also failed to top 59 receiving yards in 14 out of 15 games. Let the pylon in your pool grab Gates earlier than he should go.
Others to consider are the Steelers Heath Miller (recovering from a late season torn ACL), Jermichael Finley (the Packers perennial tease) and Tony Gonzalez (is he really going to retire?).

How Edgar Cayce Healed My Heart
By Rosalie B. Kahn
I grew up in the south Bronx in the early 1950s. As a very young girl, I searched for God and love. My quest began early in life, catalyzed by a painful childhood marked by sexual and emotional abuse.
I came from a dysfunctional family and grew up in a chaotic and out-of-balance world. Like a lot of other people, I was not taught how to love unconditionally or how to express that love toward myself and others. I didn't learn how to set appropriate boundaries. I learned to doubt myself and to give my power to other people.
Many of us suffered from abuse or some other form of betrayal. No one taught us how to make sense of what happened. No one showed us how to heal. No one gave us a map of how to communicate our feelings without harming ourselves or others in the process.
As a child, I developed a longing for love and wholeness, but I didn't know where to go to find the answers I was seeking. Then one day, when I was in my early twenties, my sister Freyda introduced me to There Is a River: The Story of Edgar Cayce by Thomas Sugrue. My life changed at that very moment.
After reading the book, I joined a Cayce Bible study group. I stayed with that group for over a year and then joined a Cayce "A Search for God" study group. That was over 37 years ago!
I loved the study groups. After three years in a study group in New York City, I left for an overseas assignment with the Foreign Service. I missed the wisdom and benefits of my Cayce study groups so much that I started study groups in Ankara, Turkey, then Bogota, Colombia, and Vienna, Austria. When I arrived in Johannesburg, South Africa, my fourth overseas assignment with the State Department, study groups were already in progress! I was delighted. The Cayce material introduced me to a spiritual path of self-discovery. I loved the concept of growing as an individual within the group context.
One of my favorite chapters in the A Search for God books is the one on Cooperation. I was always amazed at how the experiments we did in the group worked! An example is that I had been having trouble with a colleague at work. When my group was on the chapter on Cooperation, one of our experiments was to try and not think or speak negatively of someone we didn't like. That was easier said than done, but I kept trying! "Let us replace our negative thoughts with positive ones, thinking not unkindly of anyone but rather speaking and thinking kindly of all."
I was amazed to find that, at the end of the week, when I returned to our study group to report on the experiment, I was able to give very positive feedback. My colleague had absolutely done a 180 degree turnaround. Not only was she nicer to me, but she actually asked me if I needed help!
I learned to use dreams as a tool. When the study groups were finished for the evening, we sometimes discussed our dreams over a cup of coffee or tea. I started journaling my dreams and saw a pattern forming. I looked up the symbols and decided to have fun with this part of group work. I learned that interpreting dreams was actually quite an ancient practice.
I realized that I now had resources to help me with the challenges of life. I learned that I could meditate, listen to my dreams, change my attitudes, and watch the miracles as they happened! I even learned to use Cayce's castor oil packs and to pray and heal like Cayce's Glad Helpers group! I am part of an all-loving divine force!
We all have challenges in life, especially today during these chaotic times we live in. After all these years since starting with the Cayce material, I am still using the concepts that he put forth in the early 1900s. The Cayce material has become part of my heart and soul. I have found a resource for overcoming my own obstacles, have turned my stumbling blocks into stepping stones, and have learned to heal my heart. Thank you, Mr. Cayce!
Rosalie B. Kahn was born in New York City and joined the U.S. Foreign Service in 1977. During her 26-year career, she worked and traveled extensively worldwide. In 1991, she married Guillermo Lopez, a Chilean. They live in Algarrobo, Chile. Rosalie writes, does healing work, and teaches spiritual growth concepts. Rosalie has been an A.R.E. member for more than 35 years. Her new book, My Healing Heart, which incorporates many of the Cayce concepts, can be ordered from her website at www.Myhealingheartbook.com.
