A group of 35 Icelanders will be arriving in Seattle on Monday, August 27, and will visit Blaine two days later. The group consists mostly of members of an Oddfellow lodge in Reykjavík named Thorkell Mani (the name of an early settler of Iceland in the 10th century).
The leader of the group is Almar Grímsson, who is a past president of the Icelandic National League in Iceland. Almar was also founder of the Snorri Program, which started in 1999. He has traveled to most Icelandic communities in North America and leads many tours aiming at strengthening relations between Iceland and people of Icelandic descent in North America.
Members of this group started touring North America in 2010 when they visited the Icelandic settlements in the midwest, Minnesota, North Dakota and Manitoba. In 2011 the group visited Ontario and Quebec, and they continue their activities this year by visiting Icelandic settlements on the Pacific coast and in the Rockies. The tour ends in Calgary after 12 days of active visits.
One of the members of the Oddfellow lodge, Karl Jeppesen, will be holding interviews and filming. This is an important initiative since no film documentaries about the Icelandic settlements on the Pacific coast have ever been made before.

A potential bill has been drafted to expand the state's mental health monitoring pilot project, but some lawmakers aren't sure if they're on board with those plans.
Director of the West Virginia Supreme Court's Division of Mental Hygiene and Mental Health Court Services, Linda Artimez, told lawmakers Feb. 11 the state's current involuntary commitment process works like an acute care process.
"It's short-term treatment, then they are discharged once they reach the level of no longer likely to harm themselves or someone else," Artimez said. "You tend to get a cycling effect because of that.
Wendy Elswick, assistant attorney general for the Bureau for Behavioral Health and Health Facilities, told lawmakers a temporary probable cause unit, created by the Legislature in 2010, has had success in Kanawha County at Highland Hospital and also in a few other counties, including Boone or Lincoln.
Elswick said the program has been increasingly successful, with last year's Legislature allowing people with addiction issues to be included in the program.
She said in 2010, the program helped 82 people who otherwise would have been committed, and in 2012, 122 people were not committed and instead received services through the program.
"These individuals are receiving the appropriate level of services in the least restrictive environment," Elswick said. "That is what's making this successful."
Counsel for the Senate Judiciary Committee, Kevin Baker, told lawmakers the drafted bill would make the program more useful to the courts and to judges. He said some out-of-state experts advocated for fewer civil commitments and more outpatient treatment in West Virginia, but the concern from mental health consumer groups was that forced treatment is usually poorly received.
"Our understanding is that judges have not used the temporary compliance order," Baker said. "This was intended to allow individuals to stay outside of a hospital, and outside commitment while receiving medication or other treatments they need and remain a member of society without having to be committed to a state institution."
Artimez said the goal would be to decrease inpatient commitments, which are more costly than outpatient treatments.
She explained that the proposed bill eases some restrictions under the current treatment compliance order, which is a method to help a person before they're likely to commit a crime of violence or become a danger to themselves or other. She said any adult can request involuntary commitment, and then a judge makes the determination.
"You're catching that hopefully earlier point of their treatment process," she said.
Under the proposed bill, the pilot project would still be a pilot project, and would be set to expire in June 2014, unless the Legislature extends it.

If it's not more conclusive by the end of the week, I might try to be more methodical by trying a hypo-allergenic diet for a week, then adding back in more foods gradually. Then again, that takes more planning. Maybe I'll just stick to the original plan and avoid gluten for 2 weeks and see.

I love this!! keep it up. I'm like you trying diffrent sh** all the time ( mostly vitamins and home remedy treatments, diet changes etc) . I love reading what you've tried and what does and does not work for you.
Just curious?? What sort of cleanser do you use? and What do you think of lush products?
I've been using their stuff for a few weeks now and It's ok but i'm just curious what you think might be better? Also, in case you didn't know be careful with some of the Nature's made vitamins alot of them have other crap added, make sure it's dairy gluten etc... free. ( you probably already knew that but just thought i'd tell ya )

It says to inhale the vapor from hot water ACV in equal parts, so I guess I'll do that with a small amount, then dilute and drink throughout the day.

I think the mint tea has been having the most effect on my hirsutism. Remember, I was taking the NAC because I read somewhere that NAC and GLA may stimulate salivary glands. Remember I have this thirst problem.
RE: The thirst problem. Since I also have dry nasal passages and I guess my eyes are somewhat dry, I've been wondering if I am dehydrated. My skin doesn't seem to be dehydrated. But anyway, I read that sodium is needed to trigger the cells to take in water, and they do rehydrate people with saline. Since I don't eat that much salt most days, so I've been adding a pinch of salt to my water a couple of times per day. I did that several months ago too, and quit. Because I went to the dentist and she took my blood pressure and said it was getting a little high. My blood pressure had always been very low and my father had high blood pressure so I am at risk. So I'm cutting out the salt. And anyway, I just took my blood pressure with a home device that may not be so accurate, and it was something like 135/85. I am going to call my gynecolegists office and see if they will tell me what my blood pressure was on my prior visits over the last 2 years. Because they never said anything, so I would think it was low then, and if so, maybe it's something I'm doing.
Have decided to take hyaluronic acid to see if it helps with hydration. I've tried it before, but I was taking just one or two capsules per day. The dosage on the bottle is 2 and it says some people should take as many as 4. So that's what I'm trying.

What needs to be tested:
The clinician should measure serum electrolytes and glucose, urine specific gravity, urinary sodium, simultaneous serum and urine osmolality, and ADH levels. A urine specific gravity of 1.005 or less and a urine osmolality less than 200 mOsm/kg is the hallmark of diabetes insipidus. Random plasma osmolality generally is greater than 287 mOsm/kg.

Next I'll avoid all citrus, which means the lemon and lime juice in water and on food. I was going to try a hypoallergenic diet, but haven't done the planning.
My tests were inconclusive and very expensive. I did show low sodium which could be because it's diluted by the amount of water I drink. But I don't eat much salt. I was making an effort to use more, but then I discovered my blood pressure was high so I cut it out right before the doctor visit. So who knows. I am supposed to go back after restricting water overnight for another test, but I'm currently arguing about the outrageous charges.
My zero gravity was 1.006, so not an indicator of diabetes insipidus. I don't see urine osmolality in the test results.
Posted 05 December 2008 - 09:47 AM
So why the hell didn't the ENT I saw last spring think of that? So there's nothing wrong with my salivary glands and I shouldn't have been tested for sjogrens syndrome or prescribed medications to stimulate salivary glands. Expensive medications. Wasting my time, money and limited insurance benefits.
On top of that, I've seen a dentist, endodontist, GP and an optometrist since then. On the forms they ask you to fill out, they always ask about dry mouth, nasal, eyes, etc. And I always check those. Yet not one ever offered any comment.
Really, the traditional medical industry remains completely useless to me. Expensive wastes of time.

Also, are you still taking NAC, GLA, and drinking mint tea? If so, how's that combo treating you so far?

I'm just drinking the mint tea. I'm pretty sure it's made a big difference to my hirsutism. The androgenic hairs are a lot less coarse so it feels like the growth is slower.
Posted 15 December 2008 - 07:57 PM
I'm now avoiding most of the hits on my allergy test that I hadn't tried before, which are egg whites, baking powder. Not avoiding dairy (although it's yogurt only) right now though. I've tried that for over a month before. Anyway I've had very little of the other things on the list and mostly eaten hypoallergenic foods for several days now.
This is probably not being methodical enough, but I have felt less fatigued the last couple of days. Definately too soon to tell though. And I've still had headaches of course with the weather changing all the time. A new cold front arrived today. Yesterday was warm and muggy.
Going to go try making my yummy baked oatmeal recipe leaving out the egg and hope it turns out. Don't see why not.

Posted 20 December 2008 - 01:50 PM
Well, thanks, but I don't get migraines. I get congestion and mild headaches that worsen with weather changes which occur every couple of days here so it's next to impossible to make a connection to food when what I feel is more related to the weather. And like I said, I already avoided all dairy for over a month, in addition to avoiding it years ago when I first heard of it potentially causing acne.
And just like in my last post, it's warm and muggy with a new front arriving tomorrow.
Posted 21 December 2008 - 11:02 AM
Dairy products may not cause acne, but they negatively effect my health and well-being. I can consume small amounts of clarified butter daily for cooking. I have small amounts of cream (just enough to lighten slightly) in a half cup of coffee often, which is not a problem either.

Want a 9% raise? Hit the gym
A new study indicates that workers who exercise make more than those who don't -- and not just because they're more disciplined.
This post comes from Jack Hough at partner site SmartMoney.
Stagnant wages and shaky investment markets are enough to make workers want to hit the gym to forget about their money troubles. They might just find that the treadmill offers better financial returns than Wall Street does.
Workers who exercise regularly earn 9% higher pay on average than those who don't, according to a study published in the June issue of the Journal of Labor Research.
Past studies have linked exercise with higher earnings, but the direction of cause and effect wasn't clear. If gym-goers are more disciplined than their slothful co-workers, they might earn higher pay simply because they're better workers, not because they exercise.
In an effort to cut through the confusion, Vasilios Kosteas of Cleveland State University, the study's author, used a statistical technique called propensity-score matching. The idea is to score each study subject on whether they fit the profile of someone who exercises, based on factors such as age, education level, and whether he or she played sports in high school. (Post continues below.)
By comparing subjects with similar scores, only some of whom exercise, Kosteas says his study indicates that exercise leads to higher earnings -- although he also says follow-up studies are needed to know for sure.
Exercise has been shown in other studies to boost mental function and energy levels and improve mood. In that respect, it's possible that it makes workers more valuable to employers.
If it's any motivation for workers, the study suggests time at the gym pays for itself, and then some.
In May, the average American worker earned $23.41 an hour, according to the Labor Department. Assuming three hours of exercise per week, enough to satisfy the minimum level used in the study, a typical worker's time spent huffing and puffing is valued by the labor market at $70.23. His extra pay over a 40-hour work week is worth $84.28 -- about 20% more.
Of course, even if the study findings hold for large numbers of people, there's no guarantee an individual's workouts will lead to a raise. But it may bring other financial rewards, such as lower health care costs and the ability to remain productive into old age.
Kosteas takes his own investment advice. At 5 feet 6 inches tall and 165 pounds, he says he lifts weights regularly -- even if he has put on 10 pounds since the birth of his son. Two years ago he got a promotion and a raise.

Victor is on the phone at the ranch speaking to someone about Abby's trust. He hangs up and gazes at Victorias photo and recalls their earlier conversation where he told her he was not coming to her wedding. Over at the new house Billy greets his guests and thanks them for coming. He and Victoria really appreciate it. Inside Vikki is with Nikki and is a nervous wreck. Nikki tries to calm her down and reassures her that everything is fine and even Glo seems to have the catering under control. Right then Glo in her big blue bow dress arrives to tell them that her bartender had a family emergency and that she had to call another one. Enter Deacon! Victoria flips out and yells for them to get him out of her home.
Heather is sulking at CL. Chance arrives to join her. He tells Heather he understands that she is angry and she explains that the only reason she went to Ronan was so that he would not get hurt. Chance admits that he was not thinking straight and not knowing who he could trust got to him. He asks Heather to forgive him. Heather replies that the way he is talking seems so final and realizes that something is up. She demands to know what he is up to.
In the alley Meeks, Pomerance and another "dirrrrrty cop" arrange suitcases of drugs. Ronan arrives and asks if the drugs are real. Pomerance sneers that he would not waste the real stuff on Chancellor. They go over details of the job and Pomerance says he wants to stay so that he could see the look on Chancellor's face, and also to see if Ronan can do what he is told. He threatens that if Ronan does not do the job to his satisfaction he will take care of both him and Chancellor. Pomerance wonders aloud why Ronan does not seem that eager to take out Chance even though the guy hates his guts. Ronan tells Pomerance that adding another body count draws attention and it does not makes sense to him to do it this way. Details of the whacking all taken care of, Ronan is about to leave when Pomerance stops him. He orders Ronan to lift his shirt to check see if he is wired.
At Crimson Lights, Chance tells Heather something big is going down tonight and he plans on being there. Heather asks him who is doing the bust with him and he tells her since he is no longer on the force he cannot get any back up. Heather tries to call Paul but Chance stops her from doing so. Heather realizes this may be goodbye and begs him not to do this. She tells him she loves him, and that to her what happened between them is real, even though she realizes that to him it may have been a rebound thing. She can't let him walk into a drug bust where he can be killed. Chance reassures her he will be safe and that he will come right back to her when this thing is over. With a kiss he leaves and Heather hurries out after him.
Back at the Ranch more reminiscing by Victor as he flashes back to Nikki placing a young (blonde) Victoria into his arms. Over at Vikki and Billy's, Vikki is still upset about Deacon being there and says she can't have that kind of bad luck on her wedding day. Glo in her bow explains that she had no choice but Nikki tells Glo she'd better go grab her apron since she will be doing it. Gloria is not too pleased. She tells Deacon to get lost and clip clops away (tee hee) to get her apron I assume. Nick arrives to glare at Deacon. "What the hell is he doing here"? Deacon says he was just leaving.
As Vikki and Nick go upstairs to check on Summer and Reed, a server walks in with drinks just as Nikki is leaving the room. She pauses for a moment but eventually says no thank you. Deacon has observed the whole thing and tells Nikki, "Its not easy to say no". Nikki is speechless for a moment. Deacon has been to enough meetings to recognize a fellow "Alkie". Nikki finds her voice long enough to add that she is in recovery and that every day is a test. Deacon tells her if she wants to talk about a test try working as a bartender. Nikki clip clops out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
Phyllis walks in just as Deacon is about to leave. She asks him to be her plus one. Deacon tells Phyllis she must really hate her sister in law if she invites the man who broke up her (Vikki's) last marriage as her date. Phyllis corrects him ex-sister in law. Or Deacon wonders, is it to piss Nick off? Is it a yes? Phyllis asks. Deacon says it is.
Outside Mac runs into Billy who wants to know if the pregnancy test was right. Yes, Billy says he and Vikki are having a baby, but the wedding is not about Vikki being pregnant. He loves Vikki and she is what he wants. Billy tells Mac that he still loves her and that he hopes she knows that. They hug. On another side of the manicured lawn, Phillip, Jill Murphy and Kay pose for photos as Kay and Jill bicker about Billy and Victor. Jill still thinks that Billy is going to get crap from Victor and talks about it being hell to be in a family with someone you hate. Michael arrives just then. Jill asks where Lauren is and he Michael tells her Lauren had plans to go visit Scotty. Jill thinks Scotty should come to GC so she could get to know her nephew. What a lovely idea smiles Michael. They discuss the wedding party and are all surprised that Jana is standing up for Vikki. Photographer Daniel explains that it was a last minute thing and that Vikki was desperate. Jill says its just an omen and that the wedding will be a disaster.
Further down the lawn, Jack chastises Abby for bringing her lawyer to a family event. Abby thinks it would be lame to come without a date and Vance says he is there to look out for Abby. Ashley wonders if Victor will show and Jack says that it will be a nice quiet day or it could still blow all to hell.
Over at the Chancellor mansion Heather arrives to ask Chloe if she knew what Chance was up to. She asks Chloe if she tried to talk him out of it. Of course Chloe tried. Heather mentions that she tried to get Chance to take Paul as back up but he refused. Chloe says that Chance probably does not want anyone else to get hurt since he saw too much of that in Iraq. She concludes that Chance is not scared, but he is an idiot. Nina walks in and wants to know who's not scared. Heather and Chloe keep mum and Nina demands to know what Chance is walking into.
In the alley Meeks tries to lift Ronan's shirt to check for a wire. Ronan grabs him by the throat. Touch me again and you die! Pomerance tells the dirrrrty cops to calm down. Chance will be here any minute. Ronan walks away as Pomerance and Meeks go back to arranging the suitcases. As they stand with their backs to the door, Chance arrives with his gun pointed and tells them to put their hands where he can see them. They all do. Pomerance slowly turns around. Needless to say Chance is stunned to see him.
Back at the ranch more reminiscing by Victor. This time Nikki and Victor are telling Vikki that they are having another baby. Vikki asks to touch the baby and Nikki holds her hand to her tummy.
Over at the wedding Michael pulls Phyllis aside and hisses that she is out of her mind bringing Deacon here. Phyllis tells him, it's his mother Gloria who is out of her mind because she was the one who hired him then asked him to leave, so Phyllis asked him to stay as her date. Michael asks if this is about Nick. Phyllis says no it's not. It's about her having fun. Just as Phyllis walks away Nick arrives and is not pleased. Michael steps in front of him and tells them his job today will be to run interference between him and Phyllis so that they stay away from each other. Nick says Phyllis is crossing the line. Michael reminds him that it's his sisters wedding and he should try to keep the peace.
Billy and Nikki run into each other outside. Nikki is holding her hand to her head and Billy asks if she is OK. She says she is and tells him it's time. He's up. A nervous Billy takes his place with Rafe reassuring him that it will be OK. The wedding procession starts. Reed and Summer come down the aisle followed by Jana who is carrying Delia. All stand as Vikki gets ready to walk down the aisle. Just as she is about to walk the plank I mean walk down the aisle alone, Nick appears at her side. Vikki is surprised he is there and Nick tells her he couldn't let her get married and not be there.
The wedding gets underway (to the Father Knows Best theme song, I think not sure). Mac goes to get Delia and as Summer comes down to take a seat, Phyllis reaches for her to sit with her and Deacon, but Nick takes her to sit on his lap as he scowls at Deacon and Phyllis. Phyllis seems taken aback and retaliates by placing her hand on Deacon's knee and leaning in close to him. Nick is not impressed. Meanwhile, Vikki and Billy are now standing together at the altar and joke a bit with each other as their guests all look uneasy.
Heather and Chloe explain the whole story about the drug bust to Nina. Nina wants to know where all of this is going down and Chloe says they don't know but Ronan does. How convenient Nina thinks, Ronan tipping Chance off. She calls Chance's cell but he does not answer. Nina dials again. She knows who can help.
In the alley Chance begins to put two and two together after seeing Meeks and Pomerance. Pomerance tells him he can still walk away. Chance tells them to drop their weapons and walk away from the suitcases. These are going to Internal Affairs. Pomerance mocks him about all the merits he will get for taking down the bad guys. Chance says he will be happy just testifying against him. Too bad he'll never take the stand Pomerance tells him as Ronan appears behind Chance with his weapon drawn. It's over, Ronan says as Chance glances back over his shoulder.
More flashbacks at the ranch as Victor sits alone in his armchair. Meanwhile the wedding is underway. The guests look on and Nick glances over to Phyllis who still has her hand on Deacon's knee. Michael looks over at them to sigh and roll his eyes. As the judge asks is anyone present... Billy interrupts her and tells her to skip that part.
Paul is at Katherine's trying to trace Chance's cell phone signal. Heather says Ronan would not set Chance up but Nina is not convinced. All stare at her uncomfortably as she rants about Ronan and she realizes that they all know something that she doesn't. They all admit that they do. Chloe is surprised that Paul and Heather know and Heather is equally surprised that Chloe knows. However it is soon apparent, as Heather and Paul spill all about Ronan being undercover that they do not know that Ronan is Chance's brother. Heather then wants to know what Chloe knows and when Ronan told her about being undercover and it's now Chloe's turn to tell them all that Ronan is Chance's brother.
In the alley the showdown continues and Pomerance yells at Ronan to get it done. Chance and Ronan face off other guns pointing at each other. Kill him yells Pomerance. Over at Chancellor Chloe is telling all how she found out that Ronan is Nina's son and Chance's brother. A shocked Nina slumps into a chair in disbelief. Just then Paul gets a signal from Chance's cell phone.
Back at the wedding Vikki and Billy have no rings because they plan to get them tattooed on. Both Nick and Nikki lower their heads in disbelief. Just before they take their official vows Billy and Vikki exchange some heartfelt words to each other recounting how they first got together etc. Then the official vows. Billy goes first. Then as Vikki starts hers, two people in dressed in black arrive to arrest her. The charge, violating the foreign practices corrupt act. All are stunned! Vikki realizes that this is all about Japan!
Back to the alley. Shoot him already, shouts Pomerance and as Ronan hesitates he orders Meeks to finish it. Meeks grabs for his gun and as he is about to shoot Ronan fires. It is not clear if he was firing at Meeks who was beside Chance or at Chance, but as Meeks ducks behind, Chance is shot. Paul and Nina rush in just as Chance falls to the ground. Paul pulls a screaming Nina away and Chance lies motionless on the ground.
Chaos reigns over at the wedding. The judge, bless her heart continues the ceremony as Vikki is being hauled away with Billy, Michael and Rafe at her side tulle flying all over the place. Vikki repeats her vows are she is being led away and just before she gets shoved into the back of the car, the judge pronounces them husband and wife (a pretty hilarious scene). Damn you Victor says Billy!
Over at the ranch, Victor gets word that the deed was done and that Vikki was arrested.
More chaos in the alley. Chance is down, Nina is hysterical, and Ronan looks shell shocked. Nina is screaming how could you do this to your brother? The paramedics are on the scene and pronounce Chance dead and are about to cover him with a sheet as Chloe and Heather rush in. More bawling as both make a beeline to Chance.

UK Internet Service Providers Commit to Government Backed Code of Practice
The UK's top four ISPs – BT, Sky, TalkTalk and Virgin Media – today published a Code of Practice that outlines a core set of commitments that will see ISPs better inform and educate parents about the options available to empower them to control access to online content.
The Code of Practice – which is founded on the commitment to present parents with an "active choice" over content controls – was developed following an ongoing dialogue between ISPs, Government, NGOs, and parents' and childrens' groups. It implements the Bailey Review recommendation that ISPs should make "it easier for parents to block access to adult and age restricted material"i.
The Code of Practice, which had received the support of David Cameron1 and Reg Bailey, is the first step in an ongoing commitment by the top four ISPs to work with each other and other interested parties to explore new technologies that will give parents the ability to better control the online content accessed by their children.
The Code presents a number of measures that can be implemented quickly to help parents take control over the content their children consume online. They will provide a clear foundation on which to build over time, and the Code includes a commitment from the ISPs to continue to innovate in this area.
Communications Minister Ed Vaizey said: "I am pleased to see industry is taking action to help parents protect their children online. The new code of conduct is a real, practical step to ensure households make a choice about parental controls when opening a new internet account. I look forward to continuing to work with the ISPs and the rest of the industry to help children enjoy the benefits of the internet safely."
Children's Minister Tim Loughton added: "Parents are quite rightly concerned about their children accessing harmful or inappropriate content online. But many parents don't always know how to activate parental controls at home. That's why it's important they are asked to make a choice at the point of purchase over whether they want parental controls switched on or off. I welcome the commitment by the four major internet service providers today and I would like to see their code of practice adopted widely. Parental controls are one part of a wider range of internet safety tools. Through the UK Council for Child Internet Safety we are working with industry and charities to educate and inform parents and children to help keep them safe online."
Minister for Crime and Security James Brokenshire added: "We all have a responsibility to protect children from the harmful parts of the internet and bring criminals operating online to justice. I welcome this new code of practice which will help keep children safe and reassure parents. To boost online safety and tackle crime we must all work closely together – government, industry, the police, and the public – to ensure an effective response."
The objectives set out within the Code include commitments to:
Implementation of the Code by each ISP will begin immediately, with technical developments expected to be announced through the course of the next twelve months, alongside a commitment to drive greater awareness of the issue through each ISP's established communication channels.
The objectives set out in the Code will be subject to transparent independent review, providing Government, policymakers, NGOs, parents' and childrens' groups with evidence as to whether 'Active Choice' is improving awareness and take-up of parental controls.

Notes to Editors

i Bailey Review
Reg Bailey, Chief Executive of the Mother's Union, carried out an independent review looking at the pressures on children to grow up too quickly as the request of the Government. "Letting Children be Children: the Report of an Independent Review of the Commercialisation and Sexualisation of Childhood" was published on 6 June 2011.
The Bailey Review made the following recommendation for the internet industry:
Recommendation 5: Making it easier for parents to block adult and age-restricted material from the internet. To provide a consistent level of protection across all media, as a matter of urgency, the internet industry should ensure that customers must make an active choice over what sort of content they want to allow their children to access. To facilitate this, the internet industry must act decisively to develop and introduce effective parental controls, with Government regulation if voluntary action is not forthcoming within a reasonable timescale.

If you caught my blog post a few weeks back about how important executive functioning skills are for academic success, this article will provide you with some helpful strategies for promoting executive functioning skills for your child (and even for yourself). As a quick review, executive functioning skills are those needed for sustaining attention, initiating tasks, planning, organizing, managing time, regulating affect, and goal-directed persistence. These skills are sometimes called the "hidden curriculum" in schools because they are rarely taught explicitly but are critical for applying one's intellectual abilities to succeed on tasks in and outside of the classroom. Weaknesses in executive functioning skills can have a negative impact on a child's academic, social, emotional, and behavioral functioning at school.
Strategies parents can use to increase executive functioning skills:
- Teach your child how to be organized. This will vary based on your child's age. Here are some ideas: Toddlerhood - practice putting toys back in particular places, sorting objects, and maintaining a daily schedule. Preschool Age - assign simple daily tasks/chores to mark off of a list, have your child practice preparing her own belongings for daycare/school each day and for weekend trips, show your child how to follow simple directions for assembling things and cooking with recipes. School Age - keep a calendar of events that your child can help you track, encourage the use of an assignment notebook when homework increases (around grade 5), have your child generate to-do lists when accomplishing projects/tasks to break material down into smaller increments. Be organized yourself! Your child is watching what you do and how you manage your responsibilities.
- Structure your home environment to support executive functioning weaknesses. When your child is doing homework, for example, regulate the amount of stimulation she must deal with at one time (turn the tv off, limit activity of the area, etc.). Also, divide large tasks into smaller and more manageable pieces, and provide breaks.
- Utilize tools and visuals to assist your child's weaknesses. Use a timer (visual timers are great for younger children and those that are nonverbal) to indicate elapsed time and so she can understand your expectations for how long something will take. Make an outline of events or a visual schedule so your child can see the schedule of activities. Utilize other visual supports such as signs, lists, and notecards to make tasks more concrete rather than relying on her internal processing. (An example is posting a list of morning activities that your child is working on completing independently. 1. Make bed, 2. Put on clothing that is laid out, 3. Eat breakfast, 4. Brush Teeth and hair, 5. Prepare backpack, 6. Let Mom/Dad know you are ready for school.) * Provide as much detail and as many steps as your child needs to be successful (For some kids, the task of brushing her teeth may need to be broken down to include: pull out toothpaste from drawer, put small amount on brush, run toothbrush under cold water, brush for 2 minutes - top and bottom teeth, spit out toothpaste, rinse off toothbrush, place toothbrush and toothpaste back where they belong, etc.). As time goes on and your child is successful with the routine, shorten the list or take out details until the note can be removed entirely).
- Be consistent. The more consistency your child has in her various settings the better. Talk to your child's teacher about the strategies you are implementing at home to see if they can be carried over into school. Perhaps your child's teacher has some strategies she can share with you to reinforce in the home environment. Collaborate to create a consistent atmosphere for your child's skills to grow.
- Avoid punishment when your child has setbacks with executive functioning skills. Instead, collaborate with your child on how to work through these problems. For a child with executive functioning weaknesses, these skills do not come naturally and need to be explicitly taught and practiced repeatedly to become automatic. No matter how old your child is, she can be asked to identify areas of concern, generate ideas about solutions/things to practice, and can help select motivating incentives. Having your child be a part of this problem-solving process can increase her "buy-in," self-regulation, and self-reflection which can contribute to feelings of success and personal insight.
- Be your child's coach of executive functioning skills. Supervise your child following the strategies you have set up, giving support as needed and providing positive reinforcement toward reaching her goals. Gradually fade out your support as your child becomes more independent. Expect a slow pace of progress and be willing to be creative and try out different strategies. Remember that these skills are important for LIFE and that the time you put in now is worth it!
In my next post, I will include strategies for supporting study skills, task completion, increasing working memory skills, and supporting emotional/behavioral regulation.

As with his other books, Lencioni writes Silos, Politics, and Turf Wars as a fictional—but eerily realistic—story. The story is about Jude Cousins, an eager young management consultant struggling to launch his practice by solving one of the more universal and frustrating problems faced by his clients. Through trial and error, he develops a simple yet ground-breaking approach for helping them transform confusion and infighting into clarity and alignment.
The Fable.
Part One: Entrepreneurial Ambition.
Part Two: Roller Coaster.
Part Three: Rally.
Part Four: Moments of Truth.

"... an engaging, simplistic read, and one that reinforced many impressions about the 'problems within' and strategies to solve them." (The British Journal Of Administrative Management, February/March 07)
"...if your business experiences politics... this book may be for you." (EN, the magazine for entrepreneurs, January 2008)"Lencioni's theory around alignment is simple and powerful, and could apply to any type of organization, large or small."
--Gary C. Kelly, vice chairman and chief executive officer, Southwest Airlines Co.
"An incisive and insightful look at how companies can recognize and remedy infighting. The tone of Patrick's writing is as warm and readable as the advice itself is sound."
--Michael A. George, chief marketing officer, Dell Inc.

Washington Elementary
History of Name
George Washington (1732-1799) was the first President of the United States of America. He served as President from April 30, 1789, until March 4, 1797. The first president of the United States, George Washington, is often referred to as the Father of Our Country. He was known for his love of the land and farming, and his dislike of war. He was a distinguished general and commander in chief of the colonial armies in the American Revolution. He married a widow, Martha Dandridge Custis, and they lived at Mount Vernon, Washington's plantation in Virginia on the Potomac River.
Washington's first involvement in the resistance against Great Britain was in 1769 when he introduced a bill in the House of Burgesses calling for a boycott of all British goods, the bill was written by George Mason, the boycott was in response to the Townsend Acts, a set of laws created by Parliament that taxed imports to the American colonies, the colonists believed the acts were illegal and violated their rights as British citizens.
George Washington was the Commander of the Continental Forces, there were many battles of the Revolutionary War that were fought by Washington's other generals, but Washington was actually present at the following battles:

Putting the Children First : Tipper Gore Touts Parental Involvement at Santa Ana School
February 15, 1996|RENEE TAWA | TIMES STAFF WRITER ( modified article)
Tipper Gore stopped at Washington Elementary School as part of a five-city Western tour that stressed the importance of parental involvement in children's lives. Her visit was financed by Clinton-Gore campaign funds.
Later, in an interview, Gore, 47, said she and her husband have always found time to be involved in their children's schools. The Gores have three daughters and a son, who range in age from 13 to 22.
These days, Gore said, she and her husband instruct their aides to plan meetings around the soccer and lacrosse games of their 17-year-old daughter, Sarah.
"Al will leave the [White House] west wing . . . and be zipped to the game, cheering them on from the sidelines, and then we go back to work," said Gore, who goes in-line skating with her children. "You're never too, quote-unquote, important to neglect your children."
On the Santa Ana campus, Gore met with a group of 40 fourth- and fifth-grade students and with the school's Parent Institute for Quality Education. The institute sponsors workshops where parents learn how to work with schools and motivate their children.
"I think what's going on here is very, very important, and is a model for other schools," Gore told the students. "Not only for Santa Ana . . . but for the whole country."
"Some people think that you just instantaneously know how to be a parent, but it's really something that you learn . . . the way they develop and grow, and how they learn at 18 months versus 2 years," Gore said.
Wednesday, Gore spent more than an hour at the school, which has 1,100 students, many of whom are from low-income homes. The school had been plagued by low parental involvement, but the institute has turned that around. More than 80 parents now attend its weekly meetings.
A first- and second-grade class presented Gore with an envelope full of Valentine's Day cards addressed "Para Sra. Gore" (For Mrs. Gore)--but not before a Secret Service agent poked through them.
Fifth-grader Saul Villela, 10, said he also had a Valentine's Day to remember.
"I was happy," he said, "because [Gore] listened to me."

Thanks to her never-ending legs and nearly six-foot height, Kylie Bisutti was nicknamed Giraffe by the cruel and clueless boys at her high school in Henderson, Nevada. Also clueless? The stick-figure-loving fashion designers who labeled her too curvy for the catwalk. Luckily, Victoria's Secret saw potential in her awesome assets and transformed this 20-year-old into America's latest crush kitten. Behold the heavenliest hardbody on the planet.
Before Victoria's Secret, it was actually tough to get modeling gigs because of your chest?
I remember doing a fashion show and hearing designers call me the big model. I was like, "The big model?" I considered giving up modeling, but then I heard about the Victoria's Secret contest.
Men everywhere thank you for not quitting.
Seriously, the contest was like my last attempt. Thank God I did it!
Did any of the other Angels sweat you? Any catfights?
I worried about that, but Marisa Miller was like, "You totally deserve to be here."
So you just did a swimsuit shoot in St. Barts. Did you hit any topless beaches?
Not me. These are for my man's eyes only. They're all his.
We heard you love In-N-Out Burger. What's your order?
It's my favorite. I get the double-double animal style, no spread, then fries animal style, no spread. Most people don't know about the animal-style fries.
You must be inundated with VS swag. What's your very lucky man's favorite underwear?
No underwear. That's definitely his favorite.
Any other hot secrets?
I have a few of those, but I should keep them behind closed doors.

Under Construction
Monitor-Merrimac Memorial Bridge-Tunnel Joint Repair
|Newport News
Project at a Glance
March 2012
Est Completion Date
Spring 2013
$3.6 Million
Virginia Paving
Newport News
Hampton Roads Public Affairs
Project Details
Crews completed repairs to the concrete slabs leading into the north and south bound tunnels, as well as the needed repairs to the expansion and
contraction joints. On all four open cut sections, crews removed the asphalt and concrete slabs, cleaned and resealed the joints, and repaved and restriped the roadway. This first phase of the project was completed in May 2012, on-time and within budget.
What's Next
At this time, the design efforts are paused while VDOT collects data on the behavior of the structure over time. Concrete will expand and contract as temperatures change through the seasons. Observing the amount of expansion and contraction is key to designing the most effective repair. Monthly surveys will continue into the winter as this is the time crews expect to see the maximum amount of contraction. When the concrete contracts, joints can open and begin to seep. The draft life cycle analysis stated that with the repair method currently in place the repair has the lowest lifecycle cost.

Emergency Operations Centers in Huntsville and Fayetteville, Tenn., collaborated last week, responding to virtual tornadoes that - on computers only - ripped through Madison County and flattened Lincoln County High School.
The simulated disaster showed off technology being developed at Redstone Arsenal that provides realistic training for Emergency Management Agency and other personnel, allowing them to practice coordinating their responses across counties and even states without having to mount an expensive, fake aircraft accident, terrorist attack or hurricane out in the field.

A Question of IgnoranceSome months back I put up an article regarding seven prominent physicists, who have written peer-reviewed and published papers on climatology. These scientists are merely seven out of thousands across the globe, who have expressed the fact that there are problems with the theory of AGW, or 'man-made' global warming.
A number of people have commented since then, but one in particular stood out. One uncledartanian stopped by to ask me this:
Why is it that AGW deniers always accuse those who accept the fact of global warming as falling prey to the 'appeal to authority' fallacy, and yet, nearly every argument they put forth against global warmi

KSP Highway Safety Branch News Release
Nine Die On Kentucky Roadways (Aug 16 through Aug. 22)
Date of News Release: 08/23/10
(Frankfort, Ky.) -- Preliminary statistics* indicate that nine people died in eight separate crashes on Kentucky roadways from Monday, August 16, through Sunday, August 22, 2010.
Four of the crashes involved motor vehicles and none of the victims were not wearing a seat belt. Single-fatality crashes occurred in Clay, Fulton, and Powell counties. One double-fatality crash occurred in Fleming County.
Two separate motorcycle crashes occurred in Graves and Wolfe counties. The victim in the Graves County crash was wearing a helmet.
One ATV involved fatal crash occurred in Knox County and the victim was not wearing a helmet.
A pedestrian involved fatal crash occurred in Jefferson County.
Through August 22 preliminary statistics* indicate that 470 people have lost their lives on Kentucky roadways during 2010. This is 30 less fatalities than reported for the same time period in 2009. There were 372 motor vehicle fatalities and 193 of those victims were not wearing seat belts. Fifty-five of those crashes involved a commercial motor vehicle. Thirty-six fatal crashes involved a pedestrian and 1 involved a scooter. Fifty crashes involved a motorcycle and twenty-nine of those victims were not wearing helmets. Nine crashes involved an ATV and seven victims were not wearing helmets. Two crashes involved a bicycle. A total of 101 fatalities have resulted from crashes involving the suspected use of alcohol.
Citizens can contribute to highway safety by reporting erratic drivers to the Kentucky State Police toll-free at 1-800-222-5555 (in the state of Kentucky only, does not work out of state). Callers will remain anonymous and should give a description of the vehicle, location, direction of travel and license number if possible.
*These statistics are still preliminary as KSP waits for all local law enforcement agencies throughout the state to report any crashes and fatalities that may have occurred in their areas. Crash data for this report is generated from the Kentucky Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS).

|Slick Sand is great for sand and water tables and makes for hours of fun! Slick Sand will not get wet! So when you pour water on it, the water will stay on top and flow, instead of wetting the sand and sinking down as happens with ordinary play sand.

Haslam Launches Online Degree Program In Tennessee
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Governor Bill Haslam has launched an online, competency-based university aimed at giving Tennesseans better access to a higher education.
WGU Tennessee was created through a partnership between the state of Tennessee and nationally recognized Western Governors University.
Western Governors University President Robert W. Mendenhall joined Haslam on Tuesday to sign the memorandum of understanding that officially establishes the university in Tennessee.
"WGU Tennessee will give adult students with some college credits the opportunity to earn a degree," Haslam said. "Today in Tennessee, only 32 percent of our citizens have a two-year degree or higher, and our goal is to raise that number to 55 percent by 2025. We're calling it the 'Drive to 55,' and WGU Tennessee will play an important role in our success."
Officials said it was formed to meet the needs of working adults who are looking to complete a bachelor's or master's degree to advance their careers.
WGU Tennessee offers accredited programs in business, K-12 teacher education, information technology, and health professions, including nursing.
It uses an innovative learning model called competency-based education. That means that rather than earning a degree based on credit hours or time spent in a class, students will have to demonstrate competency in the subject-matter.
Tuition is about $6,000 a year for most degree programs, regardless of how many courses a student completes.
Dr. Kimberly Estep will serve as WGU Tennessee's first chancellor. She joined the university after serving as vice president for academic affairs and student services at Nashville State Community College.
Legislators were hesitant to spend $5 million to open an office of Western Governors University, which targets people who have some college credit but never finished a degree.
Lawmakers argued that Tennessee's existing public colleges could start a similar program, but Haslam convinced them to go with the Salt Lake City-based nonprofit.
Rich Rhoda, who heads the Tennessee Higher Education Commission, said a local WGU branch is a "small and very worthwhile investment."
Rhoda said Tennessee needs all the providers it can get.
The state has set a goal to graduate 55 percent of residents from college, meaning as many as 100,000 adult Tennesseans need to finish school.

NORFOLK (AP) -- A U.S. Postal Service official says the closure of a processing center in Hampton Roads shouldn't slow mail delivery in the region.
The service announced last week that it will begin shifting a Norfolk processing center's work to a facility near Richmond this summer.
Postal agency spokeswoman Monica Coachman Robbs tells The Virginian-Pilot that the "delivery standard" for a piece of first-class mail sent from Norfolk to Virginia Beach is one day. She says that will not change.
Michele Wright, local president of the American Postal Workers Union, has said it would be impossible to maintain delivery times. The union opposes the closure.

PORTLAND – Beast Fit Nation in Portland offers free workouts, the only catch is you have to "pay it forward."
"(It's) the world's first free gym. Everything is free you don't have to pay me a dollar," said Sergio Jones, founder of Beast Fit Nation. "All you have to do is promise me you'll do three random acts of kindness after you leave. You will help out somebody else."
Those who work out at Beast Fit Nation love the idea and motivate each other in their grueling workouts. Not only are members motivated to get in shape and work on their bodies, they are part of Beast Fit Nation to work on their lives.
"After coming here, I do as many random acts of kindness as possible throughout the day," said Brandon Stevens, a student at Portland State University.
"You will help your neighbor, pay for the person behind you, call up a friend you haven't talked to in a while, tell them you miss them," Jones said. "Do something else for somebody else."
Beast Fit Nation, which is located at Southwest 16th Avenue and Southwest Jefferson Street, is about more than just fitness. Members see the gym as a whole movement to help out others.
Many of the members are students at Lincoln High School, which is right next door to the gym.
"Now I'm looking for people that need help around me," said Lincoln High School student Joe Angyus. "Do they need to open the door? Do they have coffee in their hands? Do they need an extra 20 cents to pay their bill in front of them?"
Instead of charging its members, Beast Fit Nation goes to other businesses in the community and asks for sponsorship.
The gym is a big hit with its members, with many people seeing great results from the grueling workouts. But it's everyone else in the Portland community that gets to benefit from the workouts.

Michael Chabon may finally score a hit as a screenwriter for Disney's new sci-fi flick John Carter. But will success in Hollywood ruin his fiction?
If pressed, you'd find it hard to come up with a more characteristic elevator pitch for a Michael Chabon story than this: "Short story about the attempts of a female rabbi at an assisted-living facility to reconcile two estranged comic-book artists."
That's the "abstract" for "Citizen Conn," a Chabon story published in the latest issue of The New Yorker. It has many of Chabon's obsessions: Jews (and a wise rabbi at that), comic books, a deep friendship, and a creative partnership sundered. It's the first story Chabon has published in the magazine in more than 11 years (in 2008, he contributed "an essay in unitard theory"), and according to an interview on The New Yorker's website, it's the first short story he's written in years. And even if the story feels a touch conventional—straightforward in plot, almost moralizing in its resolution—it has the sumptuous language and ebullience that the writer's fans appreciate in his work. It's good, in other words, to see him back in the saddle.
In September, HarperCollins will publish Chabon's new novel, Telegraph Avenue, which is reportedly a "comedy-drama" about two families, one black and one white, in Oakland and Berkeley, Calif. In recent years, Chabon has published two essay collections, a children's book, a few op-eds, and a serialized adventure story, but this will be his first big book since 2007's The Yiddish Policeman's Union. Telegraph Avenue will probably be the most-discussed literary novel of the fall—the kind of book for which a cover review in the New York Times Book Review is a formality.
But next month marks the release of a far different Michael Chabon project: On March 9, Disney will release the film John Carter, an adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs' Barsoom series, in which a Confederate captain is transported to Mars, where he gets involved in a war between alien species. If Chabon hadn't co-written the screenplay, you could imagine him in the front row on opening night.
Chabon has spoken frequently and bitterly about his vexed relationship with Hollywood. The list of unfilmed, abandoned, or otherwise bungled projects is long: a romantic comedy about old Jews on a cruise, sold to Hollywood's resident littérateur, producer Scott Rudin, but never filmed; rejected story ideas for X-Men and Fantastic Four; the unproduced Kavalier and Clay adaptation, which Chabon spent more than a year writing; a draft screenplay of Spiderman 2, only part of which was used for the eventual film; and a live-action version of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, which Disney hired Chabon to write, in 2004, before they replaced him. In 2008, the Coen brothers announced they were adapting The Yiddish Policemen's Union on the heels of A Serious Man; that, too, has landed in development purgatory, never to be heard about since.
And then there are the movies that were made: Wonder Boys (2000) and The Mysteries of Pittsburgh (2008). Both are adaptations of Chabon novels. He didn't write either screenplay, and both movies were box-office flops, but Wonder Boys remains a critically beloved film.
Of course, these sorts of experiences are common for anyone who's spent much time in Hollywood. A screenwriter is arguably the most important figure in the development chain and the one with the least control. It's likely that Chabon received a hefty paycheck for most of these projects—in addition to having sold the film options for many of his books—and screenwriters can spend years before breaking through with a big movie. Perhaps in no other industry can you toil for so long, be stymied so regularly, and still earn millions, while also being considered a relative success. (Chabon has also mentioned that his screenwriting work has helped to provide health-insurance coverage for his family, which includes four children and his wife Ayelet Waldman, herself a successful novelist.)
So, the March 9 release of John Carter—which, if it earns back its (likely) nine-figure budget, will necessitate at least one sequel—is a kind of victory for Chabon. It could make him rich (if he's not already) and rescue some of his stalled projects. It may also boost the prospects of the show he and his wife are developing for HBO—a drama, titled Hobgoblin, about magicians and conmen battling Hitler.
But the appearance of John Carter may also be an unwelcome sign for fans of Chabon's fiction. Although Telegraph Avenue is a reassuring signal that Chabon hasn't completely immersed himself in screenwriting these last few years, his dilettantish output (the essay collections, the children's stories), his rising Hollywood profile, and his relationship with people like director Jon Favreau add to the sense that this is someone who's fallen deep into the cash-lined rabbit hole. (Last year, Chabon and Favreau were spotted together at Disneyland, around the time it was reported that Chabon had agreed to write the Disney film Magic Kingdom, which Favreau will direct.)
The relationship between Hollywood and the literary elite has existed since the early days of cinema. (Faulkner's script-doctoring let him buy a plane; F. Scott Fitzgerald's kept him afloat and led to the unfinished manuscript for The Last Tycoon.) But there seems to be a resurgence of this often-asymmetric relationship lately, led by Scott Rudin, who's optioned work by anyone from Michael Lewis to Cormac McCarthy, and HBO, which in the last year has signed up Jennifer Egan, Jonathan Franzen, and Jonathan Safran Foer. These kinds of arrangements are impressively remunerative—think six- and seven-figure paychecks—and they serve as a kind of stamp on a writer's career, signaling that he or she is commercially and critically established enough to earn the attention of kingmakers on the West Coast.

SANTA ANA (KTLA) -- Attorneys for former Orange County Sheriff Michael Carona -- now serving 66 months in federal prison for witness tampering -- have filed a motion to cut the former lawman's sentence by nearly half.
In the motion, Carona's attorneys argued that the sentence handed down in 2009 by U.S. District Judge Andrew Guilford should be adjusted after changes to the law.
"Carona seeks relief on the ground that the Court erred in determining his sentence by using honest services fraud as the 'underlying offense' under United States sentencing guidelines," his lawyers wrote in the motion filed earlier this month. They added that "the conduct at issue did not constitute honest services fraud or any other federal offense."
The three-term lawman once dubbed "America's sheriff" was indicted in 2008 on federal charges of conspiracy, mail fraud and witness tampering.
He was found guilty of one count of witness tampering in 2009 and sentenced to 5 1/2 years in prison.
Carona's attorneys argued that jurors should not have heard a secretly recorded conversation in which Carona asked former assistant sheriff Don Haidl to lie to a grand jury on his behalf.
During the two-month trial, prosecutors claimed that Carona accepted secret cash payments, had numerous extra-marital affairs, and provided badges and concealed weapons licenses to campaign contributors.
Both Carona's wife and ex-mistress had faced related charges for benefiting from his schemes.
The charges were dropped after Carona's acquittal of most charges.
Carona gained national attention during an investigation into the 2002 kidnapping and murder of 5-year-old Samantha Runnion.

I have spent almost two hours talking to him on the phone about his time there. To be completely honest, I just wanted to hear info on those mission first hand, cause of the professional interest I have in it as a historian. Now I feel really bad cause I encouraged the kid to talk about it so much, while not caring really about what it was like for him or that he made new friends etc. I feel really bad. :/

Demolition is moving along on the old Broad Avenue Bridge nearly 4 years after it was closed for safety reasons.
Some advocates fought to save it.
They're sad to see it come down, but some say it's now time to move on.
Earlier this year Njemile Ali pleaded with city officials to renovate the bridge and not tear it down. Although that didn't happens she hopes the new brings economic progress to Albany.
As the Broad Avenue Bridge comes tumbling down piece by piece.
Njemile Ali, an advocate who tried to save the bridge, says it will not be forgotten.
"It's been here all my life and I'll miss it," said Ali.
Back in April, Ali stood in front of city commissioners and asked that the bridge be rehabilitated instead of torn down and rebuilt. That didn't happen.
"That did the bridge mean to me? Umm... We don't have enough time," said Ali.
Ali has accepted the bridge's fate, although she says it wasn't easy. Now she hopes a new bridge will bring economic prosperity to the city.
"I care about history I care about the bridge. We weren't able to save it and I have to think about what the bridge represents for Albany and for Albany's people. The people are the most important thing. The bridge is one of our treasuries. Our people are still here and remain in need of a whole lot of economic support. I want the city to build bridges of economic opportunity for our people," said Ali.
When asked if tearing down the Broad Avenue Bridge was a step in the right direction, says she isn't sure and only the future will tell.
"This is a step. It's just a step. It remains to be seen whether or not it will contribute for bridges of opportunity for our people," said Ali.
She hopes for the best as demolition of the bridge continues.
We checked with city officials tonight to see when exactly will the bridge will be completely demolished and we were told late December but that it may be a little after that due a late start by the demolition crew.
Crews are making sure no debris ends up in the river. It will likely be early 2015 before the new bridge opens.

I started taking Effexor XR three years ago and it has made a dramatic difference in my quality of life (150 mg once a day).
