Marcy Slick '11
After graduating from Gettysburg College, with a dual major in Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies and Spanish, I was accepted into the University of Pennsylvania's School of Social Policy and Practice. During my time in this program, I interned at a Federally Qualified Health Center in West Philadelphia and a Domestic Violence Program for Latinas in North Philadelphia. In 2013, I graduated with a Master's Degree in Clinical Social Work. Soon after, I successfully completed the exam to become a Licensed Social Worker in Pennsylvania.
Upon graduating with my MSW, I was hired by Lutheran Settlement House in their Bilingual Domestic Violence Program as a Medical Advocate at Einstein Medical Center. Through this position, I am able to combine my passions and abilities in direct, clinical work as well as organizational/community education and advocacy. I provide immediate/crisis and ongoing counseling services to patients and families at Einstein Medical Center who have been affected by intimate partner violence. As a bilingual (English/Spanish) counselor, I am able to provide direct domestic violence services to English- as well as Spanish-speakers in the North Philadelphia community. On the larger level, I also provide education and training on intimate partner violence for hospital staff as well as other community organizations and systems. Through these combined efforts, I am able to address family and community violence both directly with individuals and through efforts to shift organizational and societal understanding of this issue.
Currently, I live in West Philadelphia with my husband. Ultimately, I hope to become a nonprofit leader in Philadelphia, which would allow me to continue to expand my knowledge and the impact of my work.
In this photo, I am at an event that I organized at Einstein Hospital designed to raise awareness about teen dating violence. February is Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month, so for the event, I handed out Valentine's Cards with facts and stats about TDV to hospital staff.
Kathleen (Katie) Marchetti '07 is currently completing her doctoral work in Political Science and Women's Studies at the Pennsylvania State University. Katie received her dual M.A. in Political Science and Women's Studies from Penn State in 2009 and is expected to receive a dual Ph.D. in Political Science and Women's Studies in the summer of 2013. Her academic research, focusing broadly on questions related to gender in politics and the role(s) interest groups play in the political process, has been published in peer-reviewed journals in both Women's Studies (Gender, Place & Culture) and Political Science (Interest Groups & Advocacy). In her dissertation, Katie explores the linkages between interest groups and public policy and considers how citizens' intersecting socio-political identities (e.g. gender and race) are represented in political agendas. In addition to her research, Katie has served as a teaching assistant to five introductory courses in Political Science and Women's Studies and was the lead instructor for two classes of her own: PLSC 001: Introduction to American Government and PLSC/WMNST 428: Gender and American Politics. She is the 2012 recipient of the Political Science department's Robert S. Friedman Award for Excellence in Teaching. Ultimately, Katie's experiences at Gettysburg inspired her to pursue a career in academia; she is currently applying for academic positions with the ultimate goal of teaching at a liberal arts college.
Monique Mathews '06 hit the ground running after graduating from Gettysburg. She gained a passion and love for higher education by being an active student leader on campus. After receiving a job at Rutgers University in Camden as the Assistant Coordinator in the Office of Campus Involvement, Monique was able to continue in the area of student development and leadership skill-building for college students. One of her many responsibilities included organizing community service projects in order for students to build relationships with the citizens of Camden. In 2007, she began establishing relationships with Non -Governmental Organizations in multi-regions of South Africa to begin an Alternative Spring Break trip for students. To date, eighteen students have been on the trip. While in the country, they learn about NGOs in South Africa and the needs of the people they service. Sanding/varnishing desks, painting, mural creation and literacy development are just a few of the projects Rutgers students complete while in the country. In May of 2009, Monique completed her Masters of Science in Organization Leadership from Cabrini College. After working at Rutgers for 6 years, Monique decided to return to the place she loved to continue assisting students in their co- curricular leadership at Gettysburg College as the Associate Director of Student Activities and First- Year Programs. In her commitment to Gettysburg as an active alum, she is currently serving on the Gettysburg College Alumni Association Board of Directors.
Krystal Thomas '07 received her Masters of Science in Information from the University of Michigan School of Information in April 2009. One of her areas of research at UM was women and social memory as found through the archive. During her graduate work, she interned at the Smithsonian Institute Archives and at the Sindecuse Museum of Dentistry. While at the Sindecuse Museum of Dentistry, she did major research into the lives of the early women graduates to help prepare the museum for an exhibit on women in early dentistry. For the last two years, she worked at the Theodore Roosevelt Center in Dickinson, North Dakota where she helped launch the new digital library late last year. She recently relocated to Tallahassee, Florida where she took the position of Digital Archivist at Florida State University Libraries. Her work focuses on digitization workflows, metadata creation and helping reboot the digital collections program at FSU.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Information and Resources
Crusade for a Cure
A Need to Know More continued...
The Terrys proved to be quick studies in understanding the politics of research -- and how to get on the scientific agenda. "We knew we couldn't just walk into a research facility and beg or demand that they look into PXE," says Pat. So they did the groundwork themselves, collecting patient data and tissue samples. Within a few months, Pat and Sharon had personally visited 24 countries, collected over 1,000 tissue samples from PXE patients -- and drained their savings in the process. They made masterful use of the Internet, contacting patients and researchers via e-mail and digging through online medical databases.
Their next step was to court researchers, offering the material they'd collected as the carrot. As they wooed, they also negotiated for future rights. "Traditionally, the research process asks people to hand over their tissues and personal information with nothing in return," Sharon says. "We wanted a say in how the material is used because it affects us so profoundly."
The contracts negotiated by the Terrys state that if a lab has success with any of the materials provided by PXE International, the group will be named in the patent applications and will have a share of any profits made from the discoveries. The researchers also had to agree to make available to future patients the next hoped-for breakthrough -- a screening test to identify carriers of the PXE gene.
To Mary Davidson, executive director of the Genetic Alliance in Washington, D.C., the Terrys' work has made an impact far beyond PXE, serving as an example to other groups and bolstering research on genetic disorders across the board. "We're finding out more and more about how genetic disorders are linked to many other conditions," she says. "Research in any area of genetics has huge implications for everyone."
Getting in Line at the Deli
But perhaps the biggest lesson lies in the Terrys' approach to the medical research establishment. "I see the health care system as a deli," says Pat. "You can't just stand around quietly and wait to be called. You've got to grab a number, know what you want, and get to the front of the line."
Today, the state of knowledge about PXE has improved a great deal, in large part because the Terrys' efforts have greatly increased the number of cases in the medical literature. Most importantly, experts now know that having the disease does not amount to a guarantee of early death. "There are millions of people with PXE who have no complications or very mild ones and will live a normal lifespan," says Lionel Bercovich, MD, the dermatologist who has treated the Terry children and is medical director of PXE International.
As the Terrys continue their medical crusading, they are also working to reestablish a normal family life. Elizabeth and Ian started school this fall, their first time in a traditional classroom (they'd been schooled at home since the diagnosis, in part because of the hectic travel schedule the family had adopted). Elizabeth is particularly happy about this, Pat says, because she's keen on being an average kid. "She rather talk about girl stuff than about testifying before Congress," he says.

Well, the issue here is that inflation is a rather complex phenomenon. In the simplest models, what you need is for the majority of the energy density to be in a particular kind of field. This field, due to the way it interacts, must experience a sort of potential energy depending upon its value. And it must have enough potential energy such that it drives an expansion so fast that the expansion slows down how quickly the field is able to roll down to its minimum value. Then, once it reaches that minimum, it has to evaporate into standard model particles very rapidly.
So it's not quite so simple an idea that it can merely be the result of some simple principle. At least, not so directly.

If Sacramento's Friday Night Concerts in the Park had a theme song for 2012, it would have been David Bowie's "Changes."
New mobile food vendors were invited to join the festivities. Organizers reimagined the beer garden and introduced an open, free-range audience area.
And all the while, the music rarely stopped, thanks to DJs spinning on stage between sets.
"It was kind of a gimme," organizer Jake Desrochers, part of Concerts in the Park's promotion and the booking outfit Play Big Sacramento, said about the DJs. "We have all this time, so why not use it?"
The innovations were a hit. According to organizers, Concerts in the Park saw a 40 percent uptick in attendance last year, drawing around 70,000 music fans to 13 Friday night shows at downtown's Cesar Chavez Plaza.
Organizers hope to build on that success when the 22nd season of Concerts in the Park kicks off next Friday. On offer this year: rock, blues, world music, hip-hop, soul, funk, indie, Americana, electronica and more.
The concerts feature talent with ties to the Sacramento area. This includes hard rock band Middle Class Rut, which had a radio hit in 2008 with "New Low" and has been touring ever since. The band returns as CIP headliners May 10, marking its first local show since packing the park last year.
Other big-name headliners include Sacramento-bred dance punk outfit !!! (pronounced "chk chk chk") on May 31 and Chico-born "California Soul" rockers the Mother Hips on June 21.
Andy Hawk, also of Play Big Sacramento, pointed out that all three of these headliners are releasing new albums within a month of their shows, and each show is part of a larger tour.
Thirty of the acts on this year's bill are new to Concerts in the Park. But of course, no CIP season would be complete without veteran Sacramento rockers the Brodys (July 26) and world-beat jammers Mumbo Gumbo (June 7).
"Being in the heart of Sacramento, (Concerts in the Park) really has the local vibe," said Mumbo Gumbo booking agent Billy Fairfield. "(It's) an annual reunion of local friends and music fans, and we see a lot of familiar faces each year. It's the place to be on a Friday evening during the summer."
That wasn't always the case. A few years ago, audience enthusiasm for the series started to wane. Some blamed the economy. Others blamed the weather. Or perhaps it had to do with the appeal of previous line-ups?
Preparing for the 2012 season, Downtown Sacramento Partnership, which puts on the events, partnered with Play Big Sacramento in an effort to revitalize the series.
"It has such a rich tradition, but it was obvious we had to make some changes," Hawk said. "The challenge was getting that passion back for the series in general, just talking to people and regaining that enthusiasm and letting people know that the big bands were still in town."
"With an event that has been around for 20 years, it's not enough just to keep the audience returning it is also important to grow the audience," Downtown Sacramento Partnership marketing manager Megan Emmerling said. "We really wanted to make sure the CIP brand was connecting with young adults and 20-somethings, while still maintaining a family- friendly environment."
But before they could connect with young adults, they had to bring them to Cesar Chavez Plaza.
"College-age and beyond are exactly the target audience for outdoor music festivals, and yet we weren't seeing as many young adults in the park as we were their more mature counterpart," Emmerling added. "We looked at every element of CIP and said, 'What can we do to make this more exciting and youthful?' "
One of the answers: Reconfigure the beer garden, which was keeping concert-going tipplers sardined in a side area and separated from the stage. Last year, they removed the garden's fencing to allow more freedom for those who like suds with their shows.
"We just wanted to create a better flow," Emmerling said. Without the beer- garden fencing, "those enjoying a cold brew can still get more up-close and personal with the bands on stage."
Worries that beer drinking and families wouldn't mix evaporated after a run of trouble-free shows.
"We knew going into the first concert last season that if the new format proved to create any problems we would return to the beer garden format," Emmerling said. "We were fortunate not to really have any issues."
Most security problems generally come from "people passing by that don't know the event is free and try to jump the fence," Hawk said with a laugh.
The venue itself will look slightly different for the 2013 series. The city of Sacramento is finishing improvements to Cesar Chavez Plaza, which according to Emmerling includes raising the stage by 18 inches, relocating the Cesar Chavez Monument to I Street, adding tables and improving landscaping.
Construction is scheduled to be completed by the end of this month.
Drewski's, Krush Burger and Wicked 'Wich return as mobile food vendors, with downtown's Café Connection also joining the party and serving Caribbean fare.
"As we head into our 2013 season, we really want to build on the momentum we gained last year," Emmerling said. "We had very positive feedback on all the changes, so we're looking forward to bringing back all of the things people really liked, while still adding."

Five non-headliners you won't want to miss
The big names are as big as ever this year, but the lineup is loaded with local talent. Make sure you're near the stage when these five start playing:
Formerly known as Random Abiladeze, this razor-sharp emcee has become perhaps the most recognizable face of Sacramento's underrated hip-hop scene. You never know where he might pop up at a small club with a DJ, playing an acoustic set, with a live band, or lending guest rhymes to locals such as Element Brass Band or the Nibblers. (May 17)
Paper Pistols
What organizer Jake Desrochers describes as a "harder-hitting Portishead," this group is a beautifully intense collaboration between drummer and electronic composer Ira Skinner (an annual participant in the Sacramento Electronic Music Festival) and vocalist-keyboardist Juliana Lydell, whose ethereally powerful voice could bend scrapyard metal. (May 31)
These Placerville natives flirted with mainstream success during the height of Sacramento's Americana revival movement in the early 2000s. The group amassed a sizable following by creating a dusty, narcotic sound that triangulated Creedence Clearwater Revival, Neil Young and Wilco. They ended a three-year hiatus with a gig in San Francisco in December, and will return to Sacramento for their first show in more than 3 1/2 years. (June 21)
The Carly DuHain Band
It's been written that Carly DuHain evokes a Janis Joplin-like vibe while belting it out in barrooms across Sacramento and it is absolutely true. DuHain and her band of ruffians take the sticky-floored saloon and cheap bourbon route to soul- and blues-tinged rock 'n' roll with combustible results. (June 28)
Kill the Precedent
There are plenty of folks who mute the TV during the Super Bowl halftime show. Kill the Precedent would rather smash the set. This band annually hosts Super Bowl parties at the Blue Lamp, and uses the extended halftime for a live performance of their teeth-gnashing electro metal that has made them a sleeper favorite in Sacramento's hard-rock scene.

St. Michael Catholic Church, 401 W. Kaye Avenue, Marquette, MI 49855
Thursday, November 14, 2013 at 1:00 pm
St. Michael Catholic Church
Marquette - Ruth V. Pleaugh, age 90, of Marquette, entered eternal life Sunday, November 10, 2013 at Marquette General Hospital in the loving care of her family. Born October 24, 1923 in Marquette, a daughter of William and Edna (Olmstead) O'Donnell, Ruth was raised in Marquette and attended the Marquette area schools. She was married to Charles Van Wormer and later Lawrence "Pat" Pleaugh, both of whom preceded her in death. For over 50 years, Ruth owned and operated Pat's Bar on West Washington Street, a Marquette fixture known for its good food. The bar was everything to her and its patrons were like family. In her early years, Ruth enjoyed her camp and snowmobiiling. Survivors include her daughters, Patsy (John) Heliin of Gulf Shores, AL and Susan Lemire of Marquette; a son, Charles "Sandy" Van Wormer of Marquette; her grandchildren, Wendy (Mike) Beacco of Negaunee, Sherry (J.B.) McKenna and Terri Bosher both of Peoria, AZ, Steve (Candi) Heliin of Marquette, Tim (Toni) Heliin of Roscommon, Jill (Doug) Bourdeau and Janet (Todd) Koski both of Marquette, Jason (Kristi) Lemire of Marquette, Jackie Van Wormer of Wausau, WI, Jennifer Van Wormer of Grand Rapids, Charles "JR" (Yuki) Van Wormer of Marquette; 19 great-grandchildren, Elissa, Brittani, Kendall, Jade, Emilee, Nathan, Tarrance, Andy, Beau, Dylan, Ashlee, Trey, Tessa, D.J., Cody, Trevor, Brody, James, and Skye; 4 great great-grandchildren, Autumn, Hayden, Baylie and Aiden; her sisters, Faye Belmore, June (Al) Lane, and Darlene (Don) Swajanen, Ginger (Jon) Dobbs, Nancy Newport, and Raymond Quinnell; numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins. In addition to her parents and husbands, Ruth was preceded in death by two grandchildren, Rachael Beacco and Angel Van Wormer; sisters, Loretta, Vivian, and Donna; and brothers, Patrick and John. The family will receive relatives and friends at St. Michael Catholic Church on Thursday, November 14, beginning at 11:00 am. Funeral services will be held at 1:00 pm Thursday afternoon with Rev. Michael Chenier, officiating. A reception will follow in the St. Michael Parish Center. Burial will be made in the Holy Cross Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be directed to Janzen House.

Midwife Says Childbirth SHOULD Be Painful
When he pushes a baby out of HIS body, maybe we'll give a damn what he has to say!
Wow, this really made us mad this morning.
In England, a prominent male midwife has come out to say that women "should go through pain in childbirth."
Say what?
"Pain in labor is a purposeful, useful thing, which has quite a number of benefits, such as preparing a mother for the responsibility of nurturing a newborn baby," Dr. Dennis Walsh says.
"Over recent decades there has been a loss of 'rites of passage' meaning to childbirth, so that pain and stress are viewed negatively," he added, arguing that patients should be told labor pain is a timeless component of the "rites of passage" transition to motherhood.
"Emerging evidence [shows] that normal labor and birth primes the bonding areas of a mother's brain better than caesarean or pain-free birth."
Of course, this would be A GUY who says this ... a guy who has never had to go through the pain of childbirth himself!
Do you agree with Dr. Dennis Walsh? Or do you think it's all just a bunch of hogwash?
Not so long ago I would have screamed that we string him up, but my ex-stepmother pointed out to me one day that she never had to go through labor. Her first child was breech, so they did a planned c-section. And elected for a c-section for the second. She's a pretty crappy mom, and I think that has a lot to do with it. Going through labor and delivery bonds you and your baby forever. Not that I'm against some pain meds being used properly. But, he has a point, too many women are taking the easy way out these days.
Like mentioned above that "man" has never gone through the pain of childbirth. I have had four children and had three "painless" births, and the one that I didn't was not by choice. I can tell you that there is no way that not having a painful birthing experience takes anything away from the moment and the bonding of mother and child. For me I feel that not having the pain makes the experience more enjoyable. When there is all of the pain happening all you want is to get that thing out of you. When there is no pain than it's the feeling of I can't wait to see my baby. See the difference, thing vs my baby… you decide?
First off, that picture is disturbing. Second, he is a man and I'm sick of men saying stuff like this. Third, pain medications should be used, there is no reason to go through pain!
I have two children: one by c-section (not exactly NOT painful) and one the old-fashioned way (epidural turned OFF for the fours hours of pushing every 2 mins). So I have pretty much experienced it all. I would say I am beautifully bonded to both of my sons. The c-section was definitely harder to recover from, but I would definitely recommend an epidural during labor. Gotta save your energy for the main event. Ask Dr. Walsh if he would have a vasectomy without a pain killer. I doubt it!
Uhh, really, Allison? The picture is disturbing? What exactly is disturbing about a woman having labor pains?
How about this idea, suggested by a (male) doctor I used to work with: the woman in labor has her hand over her husband's testicles. Every time she has a contraction (without pain medication) she squeezes his testicles and slowly lets go as the contraction goes away. This is only for the men who discount the pain involved in giving birth. After delivering hundreds (thousands?) of babies, and having 2 of my own (vaginal births with epidurals), I can pretty much say that the experience of pain during labor does not correlate in any way with parenting quality or ability.
I know there are people out there who will bash me for my comment but I could care less. There are scientific studies in humans and in apes that prove what is saying. The study in apes showed that when the female gave birth vaginally she bonded immediatly where as when she birthed by ceserean she neglected the child completely.
I think it's hogwash. My mother had 7 of us the natural way and we were closere to my Dad then her. I had pain meds when I gave birth to my daughter and we have a very close bond. She's even becoming a teenager with attitude and I still love her. You women out there that can't handle pain, I think would be less likely to bond after going through natural childbirth as you'd probably want to hurt the little poop back.
I am not an ape. I had a c-section and I am a WONDERFUL mother. I get complimented often for being a great mom. This is a pile of horse crap.
And to make sure no one comments on my experience with childbirth…. I have a 6 month old which I gave birth to. I got up to 9 1/2 cm but due to a cervical lip that lasted over an hour I got an epideral (hey, i never said i wouldn't take one). and YES the do give epi's at that point at Hoag Hospital in Newport beach, ca.
I absolutely agree with Dr. Walsh. I have had three home births with a midwife in attendance. It's the "real" natural way. No epidural, no drugs, no nothing! Was it painful??? Of course, as it should be. The way God had intended it to be.
First of all, I don't think there's any such thing as a painless birth. Two kids and two epidurals later and it hurt like hell both times. There isn't an "easy way out." A c-section has a whole other kind of pain involved. Second, we aren't apes. We have a higher level of processing, particularly when it comes to emotional connections. We bond with our babies either way and we don't eat our own sh*t. And, lastly, I think you'll find plenty of adoptive moms who haven't gone through the pain of childbirth, but are still excellent mothers and closely bonded with their children.
I'm sick of people telling me what kind of childbirth experience I should have. Butt out, already.
Sounds like another person seeking their 15 minutes of fame.
Make a polarizing statement and look at the attention and debates.
Ignore the silly bugger and let's get back to the real world!
To HEIDI at 6:34 pm: I am thrilled your home birth experiences were wonderful. I have several friends who also had great home birth experiences. That said, could you be a little less judgemental about Mom's who make other choices? If I had attempted to home birth either of my kids, I would have likely wound up dead due to unforeseeable complications. Would it have been God's will that my kids grew up with out a Mom? Don't think so.
I'm all for choices, so go your own way. But my choice was to experience the pain of labor. I think he's right. It's the healthiest option for everyone.
Hogwash. So if we are to believe this, what is it that bonds a father to a child if it's not pain? There is no reason for women to suffer the misery of childbirth without any pain relief unless they want to or can't reach a medical facility in time. Most women bond with the baby through pregnancy, not birthing. I loved my babies long before they were born. I've had two cesarians and my first was a normal, vaginal all night long nightmare of pure agony and I can assure you that I did not love or bond with my first son more than my other two.
I disagree that it affects the bonding only because there is no basis. There are plenty of arguments on both sides.
That being said, I had my son with epi and my daughter without. Given a choice between the two births again, I would go through my daughter's. It was much more spiritual and rewarding and I was walking within minutes of her birth. After the pain meds with my son, I was stuck in bed for hours. Its so hard not to be afraid though…
Like the term "we're pregnant" which makes me gag this man also makes me sick. He needs to try and pass a watermelon thru his rectum without anesthesia and then see if he'd like to "bond" with it.
I agree 100% with Jane above………..I've had TWO 10lb. babies - she took the words right out of my mouth. And - for the record - if I had attempted child birth before modern technology, my babies AND I would have died……..I actually should have had c-sections, but didn't………..so do NOT tell me that "we" are taking the "easy" way out. I'm PISSED!
I don't believe that having a pain-free birth will make you a bad mom (I don't believe he feels like that either), but I did have a natural, drug free birth for my daughter and the pain really is an experience I'm glad I went through. Yes it hurts, but it's also very empowering and I do think it helps the mom and baby bond sooner. I also don't think that the dangers/side effects of the medication/procedures are adequately described to women and it's a leading factor in our astronomical C-Section rate. But it's (a drug free birth) one of those things that you have to be prepared for and you have to really want it in order to make it through to the end.

My anniversary/Christmas presents from Beau.
(Tied with my telescope and our night in the field with blankets & kahlua hot chocolate. Also, he BROKE the red mixer he bought me a couple of years ago, so he kinda owed me this one:p)
This year was rough, with my kids not even getting the half of their stuff I ordered from Amazon (STILL WAITING!), and the baby not getting anything except his first book and first shoes from us- all of his stuff ordered from Amazon too.
Ali didn't get her stuff on time either. Beau's was easy because it was a gift card and a compass, both bought online and arrived on time.
I didn't get Christmas cards/candy out in time and felt wonderful and terrible at the same time when I received cards from some of yall. I haven't forgot though, you ladies (and Paul) WILL get something in the mail from me if it hairlips the friggin' governor. New Years is a holiday too, right? I will be a better penpal, I just haven't been a good anything lately. I love yall & I'm sorry. I only soldiered through Cindy's candy order because I promised her a service. Other than that, I completely dropped the ball. I hope you don't think I'm a flake. (Jenny & Paul, I'm looking at you, sweet peas.)
I wasn't able to do Christmas like I usually do, and I've been leveled by this fact. I realize I'm more limited than I used to be, but I guess I didn't know how bad it had gotten until the holidays arrived and I fell flat on my face. Everything has been so chaotic and I know it's because I'm not on my feet. We're generally broke, so Christmas is the time of year I try to make up for the rest of the year. Not being good at that anymore either has and is kicking my ass.
Being without family this year, aside from us and the kids, was also painful. It's not like they were really there for us before, still the door being closed completely is taking some getting used to. But I know that in the future I will have healthier relationships now that I've quit allowing the unhealthy ones. There is grief, but there is also self-respect, which is something I haven't had in years. That can only work out for good in the long run.
BUT, all of my hang-ups and issues aside, I want to say I am grateful for the love and affection shown to me this year. I'm grateful for my loved ones, which also include some of you. I already knew yall were important to me, but after seeing that Mike had passed and the response from so many here, I realize all the more how real these relationships can be.
I told one of you last night that Beau & I are growing our own family and roots with friends. If you're in need of a family too, our door is open. Narcissists and liars need not apply, but the rest of you crazy bastards come on in.
I love you.
Thank you for being a part of my life.
xoxo- Jen

Key Lime Pie

The small, pale green Key lime is prized for its almost herbal aroma and pronounced acidity. The compact fruits are tart, sharp, and memorably sour--some might say borderline bitter. It's a taste sensation that works particularly well in baking and in beverages.

Welcome To Green Coffee Benefits
Hello, I'm Erik Ramsier and welcome to my website. There is a lot of information on the internet about green coffee beans but it can be hard to decipher which information is reliable and up to date from recent scientific discoveries. Scientists and researchers have just finished studying the benefits of green coffee extract for weight loss and fat reduction. Dr. OZ even did a special on this. Here is a clip explaining it:

- 1 cup dried garbanzo beans or 2 cups sprouted chickpeas
- 2 heaping tablespoons tahini
- 2 heaping tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 large cloves garlic
- juice of 2 medium lemons
- 1/4 cup purified water, + more as needed to thin
- 1 tablespoon cumin
- 2 teaspoons coriander
- dash or two cayenne pepper, optional
- himalayan salt to taste
If starting with dried beans, place your beans in a large bowl and fill with purified water. The beans will double in size so be sure to cover and leave plenty of extra water for them to soak up, about 2 to 3 times as much water. Soak for 8 -12 hours. Rinse and drain thoroughly. Leave your beans anywhere at room temp and rinse and drain once every 8 - 12 hours for two days. Here is a great guide to sprouting garbanzo beans from the Sprout People for reference.
Place all your ingredients into your food processor/blender and blend until creamy. Taste for flavor adding anything extra you like. If adding more water, add 1 tablespoon at a time until desired consistency.
- Crust
- 1 cup raw whole almonds
- 3/4 cup dried dates, pitted and roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup desiccated coconut flakes
- 1 tablespoon water (or as needed)
- Filling
- 1 1/2 cups raw cashew nuts
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
For the crust, combine whole almonds, dried dates and coconut flakes in a food processor. Pulse until finely chopped and crumbly. It should stick together when pressed between two fingers. Add a tablespoon of water if it doesn't stick and blend again. Repeat if necessary. Make sure the dough doesn't get too wet.
With your fingers, press the crust mixture into bottom and sides of a cake pan with removable bottom. Make sure it is evenly covered. Set aside.
Combine drained cashews with lemon juice, coconut oil in the food processor and blend until it becomes smooth and creamy. Transfer mixture onto the crust in the cake pan. Spread evenly and smooth the top.
Put the cake in the freezer for 1-2 hours, or until firm. Remove from freezer, and cut into slices while still frozen. Then keep in refrigerator for 1 hour to defrost or 20 minutes on counter top before serving.
Serve with fresh berries
What you'll need
1 - 3 zucchini, thinly sliced lengthwise*
red bell pepper, julienned
yellow bell pepper, julienned
carrots, julienned (I used baby carrots, cut into quarters)
sprouts/micro greens of choice
cilantro, optional
fresh cracked pepper
tooth picks
Kale Pesto
1 cup basil or kale
1 cup kale
1 clove garlic
2 tablespoons tahini, optional
3 tablespoons or so extra virgin olive oil (if not using tahini add 1 or 2 extra tablespoons olive oil)
himalayan salt to taste
Amounts here will vary on how many your making, use your best judgement on how much you will need. If you can't find sprouts or micro greens, try using cilantro or fresh basil leaves.
For the kale pesto, place ingredients into food processor and process until desired consistency. Taste for seasoning.
Lay your zucchini flat on a hard surface, layer with the pesto, add sprouts, veggies and starting from the veggie end, roll and stick with a toothpick in the center. Top with cracked pepper. Serve and enjoy!
* Look for the smaller zucchini, they will be the perfect size for these bite size rolls. The length and width is just right.

AMD's Thomas Seifert resigns; new CFO search begins
Summary: AMD's CFO departs the company as the processor giant tries to reassure investors and analysts that there was no bad blood.
AMD chief financial officer Thomas Seifert has submitted his resignation. Little information has been revealed as to why Seifert is leaving other than the standard "to pursue other opportunities" reason.
The semiconductor maker was quick to assure everyone in a statement on Monday that "Seifert's departure is not based on any disagreement over the company's accounting principles or practices, or financial statement disclosures."
Devinder Kumar, senior vice president and corporate controller, will serve as interim chief financial officer AMD searches for Seifert's replacement. Kumar has served as the Company's corporate controller since 2001.
To further prove that, AMD cited that Seifert will remain with the company until September 28 to assist with the transition to the interim CFO.
Seifert actually once filled in at AMD as interim CEO while the company was searching for a new chief executive officer last year. That job was given to the current AMD president and CEO, Rory Read.

Our Ask Tony and Tucker question comes from Brenda Rector in Manassas. She wants to know, "Why is it that when the Redskins were winning, all we heard on 'Fox 5 Morning News' was talk about RG III and the Redskins? Now that they are sitting at home, I don't hear any news on football. I know they are the home team, but when the Redskins lose, it's like the football season ends! Can't we hear anymore football news?!"

Orem • It has been 26 years since Bountiful won a baseball state championship. Thanks to electric pitching and timely hitting on Thursday, the Braves now find themselves in the driver's seat for the Class 4A title after a thrilling 3-2 win over Mountain Crest.
"We haven't been known as a baseball hotbed, but we're just proud of who we are, proud of our school and proud of our community, and proud of those who have gone before us," Bountiful coach Clark Stringfellow said. "This is for everybody."
Bountiful 3, Mountain Crest 2
O Bountiful's Tanner Redding goes six innings, giving up only two hits and one earned run.
» The Braves' Ryan Stringfellow goes 2 for 3 with one RBI and two runs scored.

Both teams initially struggled at the plate, but Bountiful struck first with a gapper to right-center by Ryan Stringfellow that scored one in the third inning.
"Coach [Trevor] Amicone told me to look for a pitch to hit to the opposite field," said Stringfellow. "I just went up with the mentality of, 'Hit it that way and good things are going to happen.'"
The Braves led by as much as 3-0, as they looked to be cruising behind Tanner Redding, who was pitching a two-hit shutout.
As the bottom of the seventh came, Redding hit the first batter — his third hit batter of the game — so Stringfellow decided to make a change to Parker Depasquale.
"Tanner threw so well and he wanted the ball in his hands and I was just really proud of him for hanging in there," the coach said. "He didn't want to come out."
Despite the disagreement, Redding was just being a competitor.
"Ah, Parker did a great job," Redding said. "I was just in the moment and wanted to finish it, but it turned out to be the right decision."
Initially, though, with the change, Mountain Crest quickly seized the momentum.
Up by one and desperately needing to make a play to halt the momentum, the Braves got just what they needed, a 5-3 double-play by Ben Fowers.
"We all kind of thrive on each other a little bit," Stringfellow said. "We thrive on each other's work ethic, and I just think Parker fed off that double-play big time."
That play would prove to be all Depasquale needed, as he would go on to close the door on the Mustangs two batters later.
Now, Bountiful will face Spanish Fork at 11 a.m. on Friday, with an opportunity to shut the door on its 26-year title drought.

Why do guys stare at girls legs?
When I go to school I either wear shorts or skinny jeans and this one guys, all he does he stare at my legs. Why does he do this?
What's Your Opinion?
Most Helpful Opinion
He is not just looking at your legs, he is looking you up and down and undressing you with his eyes, and the only reason you think he looks at your legs is because he does not feel confident enough to look intoi your eyes, because he is perving and doesn't want you to know, and is scared you might realize what he is doing with his thoughts if you catch eye contact, so he stays on your legs, either that or your legs are bloody amazing and because the heart to skkip a beat and thoughts go through his mind wondering what they would feel like around his waist, x
What Guys Said 9
He likes you're legs I'm guessing, where's the problem?
Legs = shy guysBreasts = aggressive guysYou'll need to get some conversation going if you want him to look at ... eyes.
i just do the whole body check...lol
what a retarded answer. just because he loves to stare at sexy legs, it doesn't mean he's shy. it means he is horny.
Some offenders NEED a private profile; retardo = you of course, do some research
He probably likes your legs and ass.
because legs are sexy as hell...i love LEGSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS yum lol
very true.
He may be imagining what he's going to do when he gets his hands on them or gets to tangle his legs with them. Not all guys are attracted to the same body parts, although I'll never understand foot fetishes.
Guess your legs are nice to look at. Maybe you should send me a picture so I can see for myself. (just kidding:) A woman's legs are always up there near the top of sexy body parts to a man.
Because he likes legs...
school is cool.
Because good legs are awesome ^^
What Girls Said 1
Maybe you have nice legs and some guys just like to see it.

In my opinion, this was a badly written, horrible read. Ughh. After only reading 6-7 chapters, I just starting skimming it to get to the end to find out what the whole concept/ending was. I don't know what James Patterson was thinking with this one. Partnering with a new writer and trying a new concept, this one fell horrendously flat. I suggest to you dear reader, do not waste your precious time on earth, reading this clunker. You indeed, have been warned! For detailed, in-depth reviews, check out the book on www.amazon.com. As of this writing, out of 68 reviews, 44 are 1 stars out of 5. Do I need to say more?

NEW YORK, Feb. 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:
Hot Topic: Latin American Mobile Enterprise Services Market
Value-added Services and Mobile Applications Lead to Market Growth
This study focuses on analyzing what mobile carriers in Latin America are doing regarding mobile enterprise services. The key focus areas of the research are main trends for mobile enterprise services, market assessment and forecast, and types of services by carriers. The study includes a forecast from 2012 to 2018, with a base year of 2012. The geographic scope includes the Latin American countries of Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico.
Key Findings
•Mobile enterprise value-added service (VAS) is on the radar of information and communication technologies (ICT) companies as one of the most promising revenue streams in the next years.
•VAS such as location-based services, voice virtual private network (VPN), mobile office, mobile cloud computing, application-to-person (A2P) short message service (SMS), and other mobile enterprise services are being improved and expanded to increase average revenue per line (ARPL) and improve customer experience.
•Telcos want to offer integrated solutions to optimize the adoption of mobile enterprise services by small, medium, and large businesses. These solutions also drive an increase of data services and voice services of carriers' infrastructure, thus providing a base to preserve the traditional telecom business.
•The Latin American application ecosystem is being developed, and the availability of different mobile applications is expected to increase heavily in the coming years. Companies are likely to adopt applications under mobile device management (MDM) solutions to guarantee security and to handle the phenomenon of consumerization as personal smart device adoption in enterprises continues to grow.
•Frost & Sullivan estimates that the mobile enterprise services market revenue for Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico will grow from $X billion in 2012 to $X billion in 2018.
•Major regional telcos such as Movistar/Vivo, Claro, Oi, TIM/Personal, and Nextel have a strategy to foster the development of VAS for mobile enterprise services. This strategy is often designed to add mobility to data communications network solutions such as Internet protocol (IP) VPN multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) and to engage the clients in the whole portfolio of an integrated convergent telco.
•However, many solutions are still tailor-made for special projects. For further adoption, it is important that off-the-shelf products are provided by telcos with easy contract options by clients as a few telcos have been implementing cloud services applications stores.
•Frost & Sullivan expects that with the evolution of 4G networks and Wi-Fi hotspots, the experience with cloud services will be enhanced, allowing for the development of more advanced services such as video.
•For the client, the return on investment (ROI) needs to be calculated for large projects. However, the as a service model provides easy access for small and medium enterprises to adopt applications and services. The evolution of this model creates an increase of productivity and efficiency in this segment as users make real-time decisions. Even if users are away from their physical locations, they still have access to systems that allow for the better management of operations such as customer relationship management (CRM), accounting, and supply chain management (SCM).
•However, there is still a lack of awareness of the benefits that enterprise mobile solutions can deliver. The challenge, therefore, is to educate customers and make the service more tangible. Other key industry barriers that need to be addressed are consumers' trust and the low penetration of data-capable devices.
Research Objectives, Scope, and Methodology
This study focuses on analyzing what mobile carriers are doing regarding mobile enterprise services. The key focus areas of the research are as follows:
•Main trends for mobile enterprise services
•Market assessment and forecast
•Types of services by carriers
•Geographic Coverage: Latin America (LATAM)
oBrazil, Colombia, and Mexico
•Forecast Period: 2013 to 2018
•Base Year: 2012
•Monetary Unit: US dollars
Research Methodology
•Primary research was conducted, and secondary research included the Frost & Sullivan online database, market participants' financial reports, and regulators' web sites.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta" reunion continued Sunday night without Porsha Williams but still with lots of fighting.
Part two focused on making sense of last week's hair-pulling brawl between Williams Kenya Moore, the ongoing tension between Kandi Burruss and her mother and the fractured friendship between NeNe Leakes and Cynthia Bailey.
"You had a bullhorn in her face," Leakes said to Moore about the brawl. "You are not innocent."

After weeks of hearing about the brawl between enemies Kenya Moore and Porsha Williams – which resulted in Moore charging Williams with battery and a subsequent arrest warrant being issued – viewers finally were able to witness the fight on part one of The Real Housewives of Atlanta reunion Sunday night.
As with most fights, this one started stupidly, escalated quickly and ended sadly. (Watch the video below.)

After an arrest warrant was issued for The Real Housewives of Atlanta's Porsha Williams, the reality star promptly surrendered late Wednesday at the Fulton County jail, where she smiled for a flattering mug shot before posting $2,000 bail.
"Porsha turned herself in and was processed and released yesterday. She is doing fine and back in the studio today," her rep told PEOPLE in a statement Thursday.

Police have issued an arrest warrant for Real Housewives of Atlanta's Porsha Williams after her altercation with costar Kenya Moore during the show's reunion special.
Williams, 31, is being charged with battery after brawling with Moore, 43, during the March 27 taping. She will surrender to the Fulton County jail on Thursday, her attorney tells PEOPLE.
"We anticipate that she will post a bond and be released shortly thereafter," Joe S. Habachy says in a statement. "She is charged with one misdemeanor count of simple battery. … Cast member Kenya Moore sought out the warrant and, although the claim is unfounded, Ms. Williams is fully cooperating with investigators and looks forward to clearing her name."

NeNe Leakes told Cynthia Bailey's husband, Peter Thomas, to stop acting like "a bitch" on Sunday's The Real Housewives of Atlanta", and the word and its delivery was nearly enough to break up a close friendship.
After Thomas and Gregg Leakes went loco in Mexico, and NeNe inserted herself into the ongoing masquerade ball battle – telling Thomas that he needed to stay out of the women's business – the longtime friends went after one another.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta was filled with surprises on Sunday – including a surreal surprise party in Mexico for Phaedra Parks featuring a piñata filled with condoms. But the biggest surprise of all was the husbands brawling for a change.
NeNe Leakes's husband, Gregg, let Cynthia Bailey's husband, Peter Thomas, know just how unhappy he was that Thomas had approached his wife after Kenya Moore's ill-fated masquerade ball.
"You stepped up in my wife's grill," Leakes told Thomas after Moore attempted to hold a re-do of the disastrous couples' night pajama party that ended in fisticuffs. "If you ever come up into my wife's face like that, there's going to be a showdown … you disrespected me … Don't walk up on my wife without me present."
Originally posted 03/17/2014 06:30AM
Snakes, bats and chanting shamans were just a few of the things in Mexico to spook The Real Housewives of Atlanta on Sunday, but the most frightening encounter of all may have happened when Phaedra Parks walked in on her husband talking intimately to Kenya Moore.
"I do not do snakes, I do not do snakes, I do not do snakes," NeNe Leakes hilariously chanted upon encountering an anaconda, while a hyperventilating Porsha Stewart said, "When you see a snake as big as a building, yeah, I'm scared."
When the snake was picked up and hauled away from them, Parks, 40, said she hoped they were taking it to Jimmy Choo.

Since we planned to attain the skies but did not have wings like birds or angels, we designed and built a flying machine. Gambling also drew in crowds of curiosity, revving the hype than a win is actually definitely occur on the next spin, the actual following card, the actual following roll of dices. Experts jumped on board and introduced countless methods and techniques to correct chances of winning and taking in the house. To entice audience on their systems, they specializing in players who favored increased common games, supposedly betting and winning small. Gamebookers Casino
In endeavouring to predict how an wheel would spin and where the little white ball would get, the roulette betting system spread like wildfire and continually devour speed. Gullible patrons tended to imagine that Lady Luck, if she ever existed, would eventually smile fitted. Each betting system boasted its unique couple of rules and techniques. Most used mathematical probabilities, numbering sequences, betting patterns, colors of square, etc. I assume there may even be something as per the weather of waking time if recognized to help odds. Some creators claimed to use sufficient integrity because of this charge their systems only requested the little contribution if their were to win. That the creators supposedly have a winning formula inside of hands, why haven t they raked contained in the winnings and caused casino houses to use belly up? It seemed their only winnings were in convincing gullible patrons to choose from their so-called systems, somewhat along the lines of the snake-oil salesman of old.
Centered around history, whenever someone won big, your entire benefit is virtually nothing since he had lost big. Hence, advice out from the wise should be to step out from the table before losing ultimately.

Did you lose the bet?
So there I was, sitting by the railroad tracks, just me and my Pop-Tarts and my Florida-Clemson-Broncos parlay ticket and some creepy guy who kept staring at my shoes, waiting for me to fall asleep, when it struck me: I was getting too good!

Against bullying!!

I saw the picture about bullying due to sexual oriention and I felt like it should be much broader.
'Sesame Street' aims to nip bullying in the bud
We all know that many bullies get their start in the sandbox, not the boardroom, and that their youngest victims can nurture the resulting hurt for a lifetime. No surprise, then, that next week, "Sesame Street's" Big Bird and Elmo—who despite their agelessness have been around a long time—will tackle the subject of bullying in its earliest phases.
Three new episodes devoted to bullying air Monday, Tuesday and Friday (Oct. 17, 18 and 21), kicking off a broad initiative that includes a Web page with advice and discussion for parents and activities for kids and a five-part video series that features psychologists, advocates and educators talking about bullying.
By Melissa Healy, Los Angeles Times/for the Booster Shots blog October 13, 2011, 1:41 p.m.
Has anyone ever told you….
- that you were too fat to be prom queen?
- too ugly to be loved?
- too stupid to go to college?
- too slutty to find true love?
Has anyone ever called you….
- a whore?
- a slut?
- fatty?
- bitch?
- worthless?
- unattractive?
- a fag?
- a dyke?
Did you feel like….
- you actually believed the people that called you names?
- you were never going to pass HS or college?
- you would never be successful in life?
- it was possible for a boy/girl to feel attracted to?
I'm learning this myself, but the best revenge you can ever get on someone who puts you down….is to prove them wrong.
This is the kind of person I get to deal with every day.
This is what someone said to my friend because he is gay.
editorial piece for bullying in schools
This guy is the epitome of an act of hate. His words are just so spiteful and disrespectful. To say that someone has to go through bullying to become a better person is just ignorance. No one should go through that. Please go to this video and flag it, comment on it and let YouTube do the rest. Bullying is UNEXCEPTABLE. Jamie's life didn't end in vain, if anything he helped so many young kids just like him who were being bullied. It DOES get better. You are ALL beautiful.

is there anything on verizon.com that tell how to set up a mac to work with fios? (both email and internet) i'm only finding dial-up info.
Points you to:
While I am on DSL, I am sure those are the correct settings.
If you are the original poster (OP) and your issue is solved, please remember to click the "Solution?" button so that others can more easily find it. If anyone has been helpful to you, please show your appreciation by clicking the "Kudos" button.
i've entered that info for the email but it's not letting me get online and i can't find anything that tells me how to set a mac up to work with fios. this is what happens:
-open safari
-choose network port configuration to use - ethernet, airPort or other (i selected airPort)
-select network you wish to join (mine for fios is listed, i select that)
-do you use DHCP or PPPoE (select DHCP for no user/pass required to get online)
-do you use a DSL or cable modem to connect to internet (yes or no - do i say yes for fios?
-if i say yes, it says please restart the device.
how do i restart fios? i've never even touched the black think i think is a router. i don't want to lose my fios!!!
I'd start with rebooting the router. (black box with a bunch of green lights on the front and an antenna on the back). Turn it off for 30 seconds and then turn it back on.
Then to connect a mac It should be as simple as....
click the airport symbol in the top right hand corner of the screen
find your network in the list and click on it
It should ask for the network password, enter your wep key number
and you should now be online
Now if this doenst work, one of the quirks of some Mac computers is that they dont like the WEP security. You may want to try changing the security on the router to WPA and then connect again.
With any luck one of these two will get you running.
is the answer yes or no to this:
-do you use a DSL or cable modem to connect to internet (yes or no - do i say yes for fios?
i don't have cables in my laptop to work with fios/the router but do i need to say yes and use the cable to get it set up on the mac?
verizon should really have it written out step by step how to do this.....
how do i find what the network key is? i've had fios for 2.5 years and it's automatically entered as ********.
do i select ethernet or airPort for this?
-choose network port configuration to use - ethernet, airPort or other
i turned off the router and turned it back on. on the mac i don't see an airport symbol but there's a list of available networks and my fios is on it. but then it still goes to this:
do you use a DSL or cable modem to connect to internet - how do i answer that?
and then it tells me to restart the device.
your other option--- how do i change the security on the router to WPA?
well, i gave up came back to use my pc to post here, went back and it said 'your network configuration has changed' and gave me a screen to enter the wep code. looks like i'm online now!
thanks for your help!
i went back to try the email and it says:
