While his mom, Cory Cooper, makes a phone call, Davy Cooper surveys the damage to their car he was driving. Davy, who was driving with his learner's permit to get the necessary hours for his license, drifted off the road while eastbound on Highway 160 near the fairgrounds and over-corrected, flipping the vehicle. No one was injured in the accident and both were wearing their seat belts.

Pregnant women face discrimination in the workplace. It's a fact. It's as bad as the state of our maternity leave.
The Miami Herald took note of the large number of women blogging about being fired from their job for being pregnant. I'm sure they were reading CafeMom.
And forget about trying to find a job when pregnant. It's hard enough to find a job when you're not right now.
The sad fact is that you can be laid off when pregnant. You can be fired when on maternity leave. And there is little we can do about it.
Or is there?
"'In the tough economy, employers consider expecting mothers to be expendable employees,' Robert Weisberg, a Miami labor lawyer who represents victims of discrimination, told the Miami Herald. "'In these times, pregnancy is viewed as a real liability.'"
He went on to say that new mothers are seen as less productive on the job.
Women are speaking up -- complaints on pregnancy-bias rose 14 percent last year...the biggest increase in 13 years.
Though the complaints become a type of (s)he said/she said situation.
One woman in Florida is suing her former employer, one of the largest general contractors in the Southeast. She says her manager "criticized her for getting pregnant, harassed her, and called her a liability." She complained to human resources and was fired.
The company says the firing was based on performance.
The Pregnancy Discrimination Act says it is illegal to fire, or not hire, a person because she is pregnant.
But proving discrimination because of pregnancy is difficult when it's one person's word against another.
Have you been discriminated against at work during your pregnancy? What do you think of pregnancy bias?

Pregnant Women Discriminated Against in the Workplace
Looking for a Job When Pregnant
as soon as i told my employer i was pregnant i was demoted to a "less stressful position" they said they were trying to look out for me, but i would prefer the "stress" (which was not at all stressful if you did the job right) to a lower pay grade. i quickly found a new job.
I actually got lucky and was treated pretty much equal.. i worked untill 39 weeks then my manager decided the week of my due date that i wasnt gonna be working till i came back from leave which i didnt mind. i do hope they dont fire me eventually but they have been really good with pregnancy and looking after me.
This is a very unfortunate fact that needs to be resolved.
I was lucky when I was pregnant the people I worked with were great. After I had my son we found out he had down syndrome and before my maternity leave was up I quit to take care of him. Well times got pretty tough and I found myself needing to find a part time job. They hired me back part time which they don't usually do. When I read this it made me sick. I don't think that women should have to worry about discrimination at all when they are pregnant. I do know that it is really hard to find a job when pregnant and I don't know anyone who ever has.
So far, I've been really lucky. When I was pregnant with my first, my boss worked with me and even let me come back just part time. I left that job for other reasons. I got hired while I was pregnant with my second. Had to go on bedrest and I still had a job when I came back. I'm pregnant again and the only thing my boss has asked is how long I would like to have off after the baby is born.
Not to defend what companies are doing, but some women put themselves in these positions. I know a group of people who the moment they become pregnant decide they can't do anything. How can an employer keep you on if you won't do anything? I think anyone that keeps doing their job shouldn't have to worry.
I don't know if it is the company or the people running my particular store, but my employer is very family friendly. When my son was born I was able to take three months off, and while pregnant I had more attendance allowances (for morning sickness) . When I started getting early contractions from working too hard, they switched me into a less physical department that I now run. And our insurance is great!
i graduated cosmetology school and found out that i was pregnant. That was six months ago and i still haven't found a job. even when the window says " now hiring."
I was dropped from full time to part time a few weeks ago and now that I am showing I don't think I will be able to find another job until after the baby is born.
i was fired from my job shortly after my boss found out i was expecting. i was told i could return a few months after the baby was born but my pregnancy would 'become an issue'. i have not been able to find a job throughout this entire pregnancy. let's face it, in this economy, nobody wants to hire someone who will only be around for a few months before they need off again. it stinks!

Windermere Lake Cruises
Top on the list of things to do in Windermere is to take a lake cruise.
Top on the list of things to do in Windermere is to take a lake cruise.
Ambleside makes a good base for hikes; the tourist office has a good selection of trail leaflets and guidebooks The most popular walk is the short half-hour stroll up to the 60ft waterfall of Stock Ghyll Force ; the trail is signposted behind the old Market Hall at the bottom of Stock Ghyll Lane.
Derwentwater is one of the Lake District's most attractive lakes, and remained a lifelong favourite of Beatrix Potter. The lake jetties are a short stroll south of town, next to the fields of Crow Park. Boats putter out to landing stages at Ashness Gate, Lodore Falls, High Brandlehow, Low Brandlehow, Hawse End and Nichol End.
A more contemporary way to get around the lake is aboard Coniston's two modern launches, which have been solar-powered since 2005 There are two routes: the 45-minute Northern service calls at the Waterhead Hotel, Torver and Brantwood, while the 105-minute Southern service sails to the jetties at Torver, Water Park, Lake Bank, Sunny Bank and Brantwood via Peel Island.
Built in 1859 and restored in the 1980s by the National Trust, this wonderful steam yacht looks like a cross between a Venetian vaporetto and an English houseboat, complete with cushioned saloons and polished wood seats.
Encom- passing 1200 hectares of pine, larch and spruce, Whinlatter is England's only true mountain forest, rising sharply to 790m about 5 miles from Keswick. The forest is a designated red squirrel reserve; you can check out live video feeds from squirrel cams at the visitor centre It's also home to two exciting mountain-bike trails and the Go Ape tree-top assault course.
Ullswater's historic steamer service has been running since 1855.
The classic route to the top of Scafell Pike starts from Wasdale Head and is well within the reach of most walkers, although it's long, steep and hard to navigate in bad weather.
Along with Scafell Pike, this challenging hike is the one everyone wants to do.
Keswick has a wealth of local walks. The most popular is the family-friendly fell of Catbells (451m), on the lake's west side; the trailhead starts next to the jetty at Hawse End, served by the Keswick Launch Hardcore hikers will prefer the more challenging slog up Skiddaw (931m), the huge mountain that looms on Keswick's northern skyline.
Originally built to carry ore, timber and other industrial goods to the ports at Ulverston and Barrow, these vintage steam trains now puff their way between Haverthwaite, near Ulverston, to Newby Bridge and Lakeside. There are between five and seven trains a day depending on the season, handily timed to correspond with the Windermere cruise boats.
This excellent outdoors centre offers unusual activities such as archery, clay-pigeon shooting, climbing, horse riding and off-road driving. You can even turn yourself into a human bowling ball. The centre is 3 miles north of Ullswater on the A5091.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Carlos Santana and Asdrubal Cabrera both had two doubles and Jason Kipnis was a homer short of the cycle as the Cleveland Indians had 17 hits in a 12-6 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Friday night.
With the win and Tampa Bay's loss at Toronto, the Indians moved into a tie with the Rays for the two AL wild cards, one game ahead of Texas, which beat Los Angeles. Cleveland has won eight straight and 13 of 15, taking advantage of a schedule that ends with 10 games against Houston, the Chicago White Sox and the Twins, the three worst teams in the AL this season.
Indians starter Corey Kluber (11-5) managed to win his fifth straight decision.
He started the game with three scoreless innings, but then allowed 10 of the next 16 hitters to reach and was knocked out with one out in the sixth. Kluber gave up six earned runs and 10 hits, but walked only one and struck out five.
Twins starter Pedro Hernandez (3-3) gave up four runs in the first inning and three in the second.
Cleveland right-hander Justin Masterson threw a scoreless eighth as he works his way back from a strained left oblique that sidelined him for three weeks.
By the time the second inning was over, the Indians had four doubles and a triple, and the first seven hitters in their batting order had at least one hit.
Ryan Raburn singled in two runs in the second, and Mike Aviles added a two-run single in the fifth for the Indians, who went 7 for 12 with runners in scoring position.

March 2005 (Palm Springs, Calif.) — It is an unfortunate repercussion of the Internet's wide reach that many consumers are being mislead by the wide disarray of home inspection organizations all clamoring for a piece of the real estate transaction. As the oldest and largest state association representing home inspectors in the country, the California Real Estate Inspection Association (CREIA), cautions homebuyers and home sellers to make sure they retain the services of a qualified inspector. Since California does not license home inspectors, homebuyers may wonder how to best choose a qualified real estate inspector.
Being regulated by the state, or having a contractor's license, does not necessarily ensure competency. What ensures competency is education, experience, training and membership in an organization that promulgates professional standards, requires the successful completion of a general inspection knowledge exam, continuing education and sanctions for ethical violations. It is smart business for a consumer to seek out those who have been qualified by a recognized professional association.
Earning certification from CREIA is a difficult process involving continuing education and tested knowledge. The CREIA certification exam is the toughest in the nation because it is based on the highest standards of practice that mirror state law as published in the California Business and Professions Code. CREIA works hard to test and educate inspectors in the many diverse systems and components of a home, as well as the ethics of being an unbiased professional. The CREIA member continuing education requirement is the highest education requirement in the nation among all home inspection associations.
For many decades, CREIA has produced the widely accepted standards under which California home inspectors operate — standards that define the scope on an inspection and help protect consumers from erroneous or misleading inspection reports. Legislation has acknowledged these standards, noting that courts may consider the Standards of Practice of CREIA in determining the degree of care a California inspector must demonstrate. Since California does not regulate the inspection profession though licensing, CREIA's Standards, Code of Ethics and its qualifying process is the model for the profession in the state.
All members agree to abide by CREIA's Code of Ethics in their business conduct, the CREIA Code of Ethics mirror's California state law as published in the California Business and Professions Code. CREIA'S Code of Ethics is the only Association Code of Ethics that follows the California law. The CREIA Ethics Committee very seriously reviews an ethical complaint. After careful investigation that mirror state law as published in the California Business and Professions Code, they will respond to both the complainant and the inspector involved. Code of Ethics requires a high degree of professionalism and integrity, and that an inspector member act fairly and impartially. Any conflict of interest activity must be avoided in order to assure the consumer a completely objective inspection. Specifically, CREIA members may NOT: (a) use the inspection as a vehicle to obtain repair or related work on the building; (b) reveal the contents of an inspection report to anyone but the client without the client's consent; (c) be involved in any real estate activity from which they might benefit financially as a result of their inspection work; (d) offer an opinion or evaluation on any subject which they are not sufficiently familiar and experienced.
It is imperative to secure the services of a competent home inspector. A poor inspection can have a drastic consequence. Make sure to retain an inspector who is trained and experienced in home inspection, maintains proper insurance, and is a member of a professional association such as the CREIA. With more than 1250 members, CREIA has been successfully setting the standard – in the field, in the courtroom and in the legislature – for more than a quarter of century. As the oldest and largest nonprofit state inspector association in the country, CREIA is California-specific in its education and consumer outreach. CREIA is dedicated to enhancing consumer protection and promoting public awareness.
Many inspectors claim to be CREIA members or claim their reports meet or follow CREIA's Standards of Practice. Do not be fooled; ask to see the CREIA badge or contact CREIA to verify their active, certified membership. At present, anyone can claim to be a home inspector. Therefore, buyers must exercise extreme care and cautious consideration before hiring just anyone.
To locate a qualified CREIA inspector near you click here or call CREIA at (800) 388-8443. Since 1976, the California Real Estate Inspection Association, a non-profit voluntary membership organization has been providing education, training, and support services to the real estate inspection industry and to the public. Inspectors must adhere to CREIA's Code of Ethics and follow the Standards of Practice developed by the association. These Standards of Practice have been recognized by the State of California, and are considered the source for home inspector Standard of Care by the real estate and legal communities.
CREIA requires its members to successfully pass a comprehensive written examination of property systems, have performed at least 50 fee-based inspections and complete 30 hours of continuing education each year. Members can accumulate credits through various sources of education including monthly chapter meetings, conferences, and other approved activities. CREIA keeps records to ensure that members are complying with the requirements. Educational topics cover a variety of technical subjects including updates and advances affecting the profession of real estate inspection. CREIA is dedicated to consumer protection and education.

Vancouver Canucks star centre Ryan Kesler underwent successful shoulder surgery to repair torn labrum, the team announced Tuesday.
Kesler is expected to make a full recovery in six months, which would mean he'll likely miss the start of next season.
"After consultation with our team physicians following the playoffs, it was deemed that Ryan would require a procedure on his shoulder," president and general manager, Mike Gillis said in a statement. "We expect a full recovery and determined this procedure would best serve the team's and Ryan's long term goals."
Following the series against the Los Angeles Kings, Kesler confirmed that he had been playing with an undisclosed injury since February.
This is the second off-season surgery for Kesler, who went under the knife last summer to repair the hip he injured in the Western Conference Final.
Kesler registered 22 goals and 27 assists through 77 regular season games this year, and added three assists in the post-season.

The "splinter net" could be coming
Google is warning U.S. lawmakers that U.S. spying operations risk fracturing the open Internet into a "splinter net" that could hurt American business. In the first public testimony before Congress by a major technology company since former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden disclosed top secret surveillance programs, Google said it should be allowed to provide the public more information about government demands for user data.

chopped leek
4 cloves
garlic, chopped
4 cups

1/8 teaspoon
dried oregano
1/8 teaspoon
dried basil
1 pinch
ground cumin
1 pinch
dried tarragon
Wow! This is so good! I used vegetable oil spray instead of the olive oil, and used thyme instead of tarragon. Without the recipe, I would have missed having a wonderful soup! Thanks for sharing!
This soup was fantastic; perfect for a cold day. I left out the basil and it had quite a hearty flavor while the soup itself was not too heavy.
10 Ratings
I'm completely satisfied with this recipe! It's absolutely delicious and great fun to make. :) Thank you so much for sharing it - I will definitely be making it again!
Very hardy and flavorful! Getting over the mentality that anything pink/red should be sweet is an issue for me, but after the first bite I'm usually ok.
Love Beet Soup. I always cook my beets cut up in a microwave a lot faster. Just an idea. Some recipes call for a dab of sour cream. I wouldn't use tarragon since i don't like it.
So surprisingly good. I did not have any leeks so I used 1 small shallot instead. Will make this again soon. Thanks for this delicious red beet recipe.
Excellent, easy to make and great results.
I used golden beets, and I peeled and cut them up before roasting them in the oven with a little olive oil. It turned out delicious. This recipe is a very good basis to start from and innovate.

Chemotherapy for Ewing tumors
How are Ewing tumors treated?
This information represents the views of the doctors and nurses serving on the American Cancer Society's Cancer Information Database Editorial Board. These views are based on their interpretation of studies published in medical journals, as well as their own professional experience.
The treatment information in this document is not official policy of the Society and is not intended as medical advice to replace the expertise and judgment of your cancer care team. It is intended to help you and your family make informed decisions, together with your doctor.
Your doctor may have reasons for suggesting a treatment plan different from these general treatment options. Don't hesitate to ask him or her questions about your treatment options.
Treatment overview for Ewing tumors
The main goals of treatment of Ewing tumors are:
- To try to cure the patient
- To keep as much function in affected parts of the body as possible
- To keep the long-term complications of treatment to a minimum
Achieving these goals requires a team approach that includes many types of doctors and other specialists. Surgeons, medical or pediatric oncologists, radiation oncologists, pathologists, psychosocial specialists, and rehabilitation specialists work together to give patients the best treatment and quality of life possible. For children and teens, this can be best done at a children's cancer center.
A child's cancer treatment often involves meeting a lot of different experts and learning more than you ever wanted to know about the health system. You can find out more in our document, Children Diagnosed With Cancer: Understanding the Health Care System.
Most patients with Ewing tumors are treated in clinical trials according to national treatment guidelines called protocols. In the United States, some of the most successful protocols have been those of the Children's Oncology Group and its forerunners. Studies from similar groups in Europe have also produced very important information. Most advances in the treatment of Ewing tumors have come from the results of these clinical trials.
The types of treatment that can be used in Ewing tumors include:
Chemotherapy is almost always the first treatment. Localized therapy (surgery and/or radiation therapy) is next, often followed by more chemotherapy. A stem cell transplant might be an option for some patients with Ewing tumors that are unlikely to be cured with other treatments.
The next few sections describe the types of treatments used for Ewing tumors. This is followed by a description of the most common approaches to treatment based on the stage (extent) of the cancer.

Why this sudden spate of TNs from me? Simply because Spring never seems to arrive. Vegetation is in some cases 6 weeks later than last year. The maximum temperature is scarcely 10°C (50°F) and it has been raining for 24 hours. At least this gives me the opportunity to catch up with my backlog of indoor tasks, including a month's TNs.
Cornas 2003 – Franck Balthazar – Alc.13.5%. This was a "wow" in its youth, a bottle in 2009 confirmed its early promise and had civilised some of its excesses but another a year ago had turned porty and full of varnish, so I opened this one with misgivings. Happily it was back on form with well developed with notes of bright red and black fruit with a lot of sour cherry, a dash of wet leather and earthy minerals on the nose and a full bodied palate, complex and invigorating with lively acidity, pungently tangy and savoury fruit, pepper, crisp minerals and excellent firm tannic support towards the long finish. Very good 16.5/20.
Chinon Les Granges 2011 – Bernard Baudry – Alc.12.5%. This is a model Chinon for drinking young with delicious fruit with a typical noble "green" edge and charcoal notes as well as lively minerals and acidity. From memory I think that the 2010 was slightly fuller at a similar stage. Very good 16/20.
Beaujolais Vieilles Vignes Cuvée traditionnelle 2012 – Domaine du Vissoux, Martine & Pierre-Marie Chermette – Alc.12%. Chermette says that the main problem with 2012 was low quantities and I agree that, on this evidence, quality does not seem to be deficient; lots of quaffable tasty fruit and a surprising amount of backbone for a "light" year; good 15.5/20.
Fleurie Poncié 2011 – Domaine du Vissoux, Martine & Pierre-Marie Chermette – Alc.12.5%. This was more refined and charming than the previous as is appropriate for Fleurie but not markedly fuller as the vintage might lead one to expect. Delicious 16/20.
Côtes du Rhône Villages Cairanne Haut-Coustias 2001 – Domaine de l'Oratoire Saint-Martin – Alc.13.5% - was distinctly fresher and more lively than my recent bottles of 2000 and 2003. This is a lovely Mourvèdre dominated southern Rhône with still firm tannic structure (though my impression of this may have been enhanced by having just returned from a tasting). Very good 16.5/20.
Pays de l'Hérault IGP Old Vines Carignan Les Crouzes 2012 – Producteurs Réunis A F34360 – Alc.12.5% - (c.€5). I picked this out at a tasting for its full bodied burgeoning spicy fruit and liquorice tinge towards the finish. At home, I noticed that, with some pairings, the liquorice veers towards dry caramel which I dislike but overall I am happy with this buy. The seller knew nothing about the producer but, judging by "Old Vines" and a back-label in English as well as by a Google search, it seems aimed at the UK market. Good 15/20+ QPR!

- Regular and universal screening in the medical setting.
- Systematic use of validated/standardized screening instruments.
- Consideration of substance use as a continuum rather than a dichotomous "dependent versus not dependent" judgment.
- Use of patient-centered change talk versus directive, prescriptive talk.
- Facilitating smooth, bidirectional transitions between primary care and specialty addiction treatment.
Alcohol SBI ranks among the highest-performing preventive services based on cost effectiveness and health impact, yet it remains one of the least-implemented. Physicians cite barriers that include limited time during the patient visit, lack of knowledge and training, fearing negative patient reactions, and feeling uncomfortable discussing substance use.
This website presents information and tools designed to help counter these barriers, and emphasizes a team-based approach to implementing SBIRT processes that includes nurses, social workers, medical assistants, and other medical professionals providing care that has been traditionally provided by physicians.
This website was created as a result of a federally funded project at the OHSU Department of Family Medicine that implemented SBIRT processes into seven primary care clinics. OHSU Family Medicine maintains the website as a resource for clinics across Oregon.

GREEN BAY, Wis (WSAU-Wheeler News) Crews are almost finished installing temporary trusses to keep the Leo Frigo Interstate bridge in Green Bay from sagging any further. Bruce Enke of the state D-O-T said yesterday that three-of-the-four vertical trusses have been installed. Horizontal trusses will also be added, to assure the safety of those working to make permanent repairs on the I-43 bridge. Those repairs are expected to begin on Monday -- and they'll cost much less than what the D-O-T expected.
Zenith Tech of Waukesha submitted the lowest of three bids -- $7.7-million to bolster five corroded support piers, and to extend one support pier so it touches bedrock for the first time. That pier fell two-feet into the ground in late September, causing a sag in the high-rise Frigo Bridge that crosses the Fox River on the north end of Green Bay.
Enke says the temporary trusses will be installed by next Wednesday. From there, work on the permanent repairs will be done around the clock.
Officials hope to re-open the bridge in mid-January.

Joe Lhota has NYC in his DNA and Gracie Mansion in his sights
It sometimes seems you could ask Joe Lhota a question on just about anything related to New York City and get an answer not only to your question, but several related questions it had not occurred to you to ask.
Lhota self-deprecatingly refers to his own "insatiable appetite for useless information," but his encyclopedic knowledge of the city he wants to lead would not be useless for a mayor to have at his fingertips.
When he speaks of the city — always phrasing it as "the city of New York" — there is a sort of reverence.
The burly former MTA chairman is "a kid from the city of New York": born in the Bronx, spent the last 25 years in Brooklyn, went to college on a Patrolmen's Benevolent Association scholarship because his father was an NYPD cop.
Lhota is the type of Republican who is palatable for New Yorkers: fiscally conservative but emphatically not interested in cutting services, speaking equally enthusiastically about affordable housing and managing the city's budget by doing away with irrelevant or redundant government agencies.
His belief in the importance of low and moderate income housing, day care, pre-K — all the Democratic candidate talking points — seems to be a product of his upbringing: His parents were very young when they had him, and until his father became a cop when Lhota was 10 years old, both of his parents worked two or three jobs to make ends meet.
"I remember it clearly," Lhota said. "I know what it means to be below the middle class."
Lhota pointed out that de Blasio's proposed tax on high earners in order to fund a $500,000 education plan actually comes out to less than one percent of the city budget. He wants universal pre-K too, he said. But he's confident he can find that money in the budget, without raising taxes.
Lhota is also very pragmatic, noting that this is the first year New York City has universal kindergarten, but it's only half a day. These are the sort of notable details that make Lhota stand out in a campaign season rife with quotable catchphrases and often lacking in concrete proposals or even simply straightforward answers.
A potential de Blasio-Lhota general election could be interesting, as the Republican is surprisingly not so unlike the ultra-progressive: As de Blasio is beating the war drums against the status quo, Lhota has an eagerness to push the limits of what is expected and accepted, insisting on a "need to think about how to structure the government of the city of New York and reorganize it to fit the world we're in now."
"The beauty of a new administration is that we don't know our limits," Lhota said. "I want to be able to hire people who understand anything is possible. The last thing I ever want to hear is the follow words: 'We've never done it that way before.' Those words are, to me, a challenge."
What to expect from Mayor Joe Lhota
- Lhota feels a sense of urgency to deal with the city's contract issue, specifically that on top of an expected $2 billion budget gap in the first year, there are also 153 bargaining unions that don't have contracts: "I really don't want to wait until inauguration to start that process," Lhota said. "We need to sit down at the table, we need to break bread. I need to listen to the unions and understand their concerns and their issues, I will then talk about my concerns and my issues and then together we'll create a roadmap on how we can create a fair deal for all of the city workers."
- Much of Lhota's focus is on budget management in order to cut spending without cutting services. "The budget director's title is really the director of the office of management and budget," he explained. "I'm going to put the M back in OMB, making sure the budget director focuses with the mayor's office of operations on how to help reform the government, not reduce services, but provide savings."
- In dealing with the pension crisis, Lhota described a system more akin to what is seen in the private sector with 401Ks (though, ever the nerd, Lhota noted that in government it's called a 457 plan, not a 401K).
- Lhota is a defender of stop-and-frisk, which he noted has existed for decades prior to Bloomberg and Kelly, as far back as when his father was a cop in the early '60s. The issue as he sees it is inadequate communication with the public in explaining the program and the Handschu guidelines, which outline the NYPD's authority with regard to its Muslim surveillance program: "Everybody talks about transparency," Lhota said. "All transparency means is you talk more, you give information more, enhanced communication. They need to do that because you lose the argument if you don't participate in the discussion."
- He also would keep Ray Kelly as police commissioner if Kelly was interested in the job.
- Lhota will eliminate or merge departments in city agencies, which he said was effective in reducing government costs when he was budget director under Rudy Giuliani, when the transit police and housing police were merged under the NYPD, and the Department of Health and the Department of Mental Health were combined "because there was a significant amount of overlap," he explained. "We need to think about how to structure the government of the city of New York and reorganize it to fit the world we're in now."
- Lhota would continue to fight the stop-and-frisk federal ruling and the actions under the City Council's Community Safety Act, but he would drop Bloomberg's appeal of the decision blocking the soda ban.
- Lhota is interested in building affordable housing using "subsidy-type programs" that he worked on in the private sector when he got his start as an investment banker. He is also insistent there's extra space to be used in the city: "Some of the state authorities have surplus space in the city, the MTA clearly has surplus space," the former MTA chairman said. "I want it as mayor. I want to be able to build affordable housing there."

It gleamed up at her like a small golden egg encrusted with jewels of lapis lazuli, carnelian, and jasper. The classic eye, one of the most ancient symbols of protection.
Natalie Landau, a museum curator with an expertise in Mesopotamian protective amulets and magical beliefs, has received a puzzling gift from her sister Dana--a necklace with a blue evil eye pendant on it. The Evil Eye is a symbol of protection common throughout the world, with a history connecting it to many religions.
When Natalie learns Dana was murdered only hours after sending the gift, she begins to think her evil eye amulet had something to do with her sister's death. As she races to discover the origin of the pendant, Natalie is sucked into an international battle between powerful religious factions, each battling for the eye, which turns out to be far more valuable—and far more powerful--than she could ever imagine.
Iraq National Museum
April 12, 2003
Ibrahim Baaj picked his way through the darkness.
All around him, irreplaceable history lay shattered. As U.S. troops advanced along the dusty streets of Baghdad, chaos and pandemonium ruled. And so did greed.
Ibrahim understood greed. He was driven by it. It was greed that called him here tonight as common looters stormed the great museum. Little did this rabble know that his greed surpassed even theirs. As did his daring.
He was betraying men so powerful, so far-reaching, that he himself marveled

Rabbi Yosef Konikov walks through the high-end former Brazilian company headquarters — all marble, chrome, leather and glass — and envisions a Jewish center that brings together both locals and tourists.
The future Chabad Center of Jewish Life, which will have its symbolic groundbreaking Sunday, will occupy an 11,000-square-foot office building on Sand Lake Road's Restaurant Row and within easy reach of International Drive.
"Although we are mostly gearing toward the community, we are very conscious about the needs of the tourists," said Konikov, 40, director of the Chabad of South Orlando.
The Chabad serves as a something like a clearinghouse for Jewish visitors looking for places to eat and pray.
"Whenever I travel, the first thing I do is contact the local Chabad and ask where can I get kosher food, where can I pray and when are services?" said Eric Kessous, 48, a kosher restaurant owner who has been attending the Chabad of South Orlando for about 20 years.

The old adage of you can't solve a problem by just throwing money at it applies to solving poverty as well.
"Handing over money is fast and easy and therein resides the problem of many poverty-alleviation efforts," said Brian Fikkert, author of When Helping Hurts: How to Alleviate Poverty Without Hurting the Poor … and Yourself.
Fikkert, a poverty expert with the Chalmers Center for Economic Development, will hold a seminar Northland Church, 530 Dog Track Road, Longwood, on Wednesday, Oct. 1, from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
The "Helping Without Hurting Seminar," which costs $10 and includes lunch, will teach participants how to move beyond good intentions to lasting change. The principles taught at this seminar will benefit those who serve marginalized people and those who simply have a heart for people in need.
For more information, contact Northland Church at (407) 949-4000.

The football season is far enough along for fans to already feel their team is blessed or cursed. Tampa Bay Bucs fan, you know what I'm talking about.
Turns out half of American sports fans believe supernatural forces -- prayer, God or a curse -- affects whether their team wins or loses.
About one in four believe their team is cursed, another fourth say they pray to God for their team to win, according to a survey conducted by the Public Religion Research Institute.
One in five say God influences who wins and who loses. About the same number perform some kind of ritual before the game.
"Significant numbers of American sports fans believe in invoking assistance from God on behalf of their favorite team, or believe the divine may be playing out its own purpose in the game," said Robert P. Jones, PRRI CEO.

American Baptists -- yes; Southern Baptists -- no. Evangelical Lutherans -- yes; Missouri Synod Lutherans -- no. Buddhists -- yes; Catholics -- no. Reformed and Conservative Jews -- yes; Orthodox Jews -- no.

Slain journalist and former UCF student Steven Sotloff was both Jewish and an Israeli citizen -- facts his family and friends tried to hide from the public for fear it would endanger his life as a reporter covering the war zones of the Middle East.
In the end, it failed to prevent Islamic extremists from beheading the 31-year-old reporter.
Danielle Berrin, a childhood classmate of Sotloff, said he was deeply influenced by his Jewish heritage and values, according to a story by Religion News Service writer Cathy Lunn Grossman.
"The foundational narrative of the Jewish tradition is the Exodus story," Berrin told talk show host Jose Diaz-Balart. "That is a story of a people going from slavery to freedom, darkness to light, degradation to dignity. I really think that was the lens through which Steven saw the world.
"So when he traveled to these very dangerous places, his interest was in shining a light on injustice and telling stories of human suffering. And I think the work he did in his...Read more

Katelyn Ann Prasnel
From the day Katelyn was born, all she did was smile. She was the happiest little thing, and loved life to the fullest. We were vacationing in Va., when she started to vomit sporadically. It started as once every two weeks to every other day, we took her in to see our physician and he thought it was a nervous stomach with the start of Middle school and Cheerleading.
The vomiting continued and I took her back to see the physician that I personally knew and the first thing he made Katelyn do was to get up and walk, which I thought was strange. Then he did this thing with her eyes, and that's when he caught something was very wrong. He wanted Katelyn to have a CAT scan. He said that we would know from that, but the technician's never said anything so we thought that everything was ok until the next morning when I heard from our doctor and he wanted Katelyn to go in for an emergency MRI. A CT scan was performed and then an emergency MRI, which revealed a medulloblastoma, an infratentorial tumor usually found only in children or young adults.
Getting Katelyn to lie down on the table had to be the hardest, she cried that she gets very dizzy when she lays down. My husband and I waited patiently in the office where you could watch through the glass, for the results, and to our shock the technician laid down the scans on the table and all we saw was "BRAIN TUMOR". My husband just started crying and I was numb all over. The chief doctor called us at the imaging center and instructed us where to go to meet the Pediatric Neurologist and Intensive Care Pediatrician. They did confirm that she had a malignant B/T, a Medulloblastoma that was wrapped around the brainstem and because of the size of it they had to do surgery quickly. The next day, Katelyn went in for a six hour surgery and they were able to remove 85% of the tumor until they did another MRI and found that they removed 95%. Katelyn's protocol consisted of a year of CCNU, Cisplatin and Vincrystine. After the surgery, Katelyn lost the use of the right side of her body, but with intensive P/T & O/T, she now takes horse back riding lessons and she can go up and down stairs without holding on.
Katelyn's life has changed so much from this; she has lost all her friends and does not have much of a social life which I hope will change in time.
We have so much to be thankful for, Katelyn was dx'd 10/98 with Medulloblastoma and it will be five years in October that she is cancer free.

Legal Funds Call Out for Stop the Empire March
October 1, 2012 in Legal
A vital component of the preservation and success of social movements is prisoner support, as the state uses isolation and the violence of the prison system as a means of breaking the spirit of social movements and undermining their ability to affect fundamental change. It is for this reason that Occupy Denver would like to stress the urgent need for legal funds for the October 3rd Stop the Empire march in the vicinity of the first presidential debate at the University of Denver.
The purpose of this event is to demonstrate our dissatisfaction with the two-party system and their perpetuation of imperialistic wars and unjust domestic policies. This event is expected to be heavily policed at both the local and federal levels, with a Denver Police presence, and presence of various federal agencies, such as the Department of Homeland Security. The march has the potential to yield arrests, and past experience has shown that these arrests can be arbitrary, violent, and retaliatory for those who engage in their right to freedom of expression.
Arrests are expected, as is the potential for rather high bonds.
Please visit www.occupydenver.org/donate to donate. Whether you use Wepay or Paypal to donate, as you go through the donation process, you will be given the opportunity to specify what your donation is for. Please specify that your donation is for LEGAL.
Thanks for your support.
