Home Care
Hunterdon Healthcare offers skilled support services in your home to assist cancer patients and their caregivers. Your doctor can help you determine if home care should be initiated.
Through Hunterdon Home Health, patients can receive the services of:
- Home Care Nurses
- Physical Therapists
- Occupational Therapists
- Speech Pathologists
- Medical Social Workers
- Home Health Aides
For many reasons, patients with a serious or incurable illness eventually decide to stop treatment and testing in exchange for improved comfort and quality of life. During this transition, Hunterdon Hospice provides a bundle of services to support a patient and their family.
The hospice philosophy centers on care for the patient in the context of his or her family and community. Hospice emphasizes comfort and quality of life -- not length of life, which sets it apart from many traditional health disciplines. Hospice is for people with a progressive, life-limiting disease and their families and caregivers. Care and supportive services are brought to the patient, whether they live in a personal residence, assisted living or nursing home setting, and help to make each day the best that it can be. By bringing the care to you, patients and families can focus on being together.

Scholarships are helping recipients find ways to reach all students, writes Kristie Kellahan. Rebecca Gibbs is a teacher at Mater Dei School Camden, which caters for students from kindergarten to year 12 who have been assessed with mild to moderate cognitive disabilities as their primary disability.As a primary co-ordinator, Gibbs is implementing a new literacy program based on the principles of quality curriculum design, systematic and explicit instruction, and efficient use of resources.A recent recipient of the Premier's Sport and Tourism Youth Foundation Special Education Scholarship, Gibbs is set to travel to North Carolina and Oregon to meet internationally recognised leaders in education. She will observe how schools and teachers design and implement classroom programs to assist students with special needs."The focus of my study relates to the delivery of quality education programs for students with disabilities," Gibbs says. "I will look at research being undertaken that focuses on ... effective teaching practices, assessment, and work on literacy skills."Gibbs says she is excited about seeing firsthand the current research and developments in this area. "One challenge that special education teachers are faced with is providing access to the general curriculum for students with disabilities," Gibbs says."It is imperative that educators are provided with the skills and knowledge on current pedagogy and research that will assist them in adjusting the curriculum and instruction to tailor it to the individual's learning needs."Olivia Rothwell is a special education teacher at Wiley Park Girls High School. She works within a support unit that caters for three classes of students with mild and moderate levels of intellectual disability, and one class for students with multi-categorical disabilities, including autism spectrum disorder."I teach all life skills syllabus but I enjoy teaching English, science and history the most," Rothwell says.Also a recent recipient of the Premier's Sport and Tourism Youth Foundation Special Education Scholarship, Rothwell will travel to Colorado and Texas to observe the implementation of Collaborative Strategic Reading as a strategy to support high-school students' literacy skills."Special education teachers ... are often sidelined by the mainstream," Rothwell says."Their skills can be undervalued because they are working with people with a disability."Rothwell says a typical day in the classroom is difficult to define. "It is hectic, stressful, frustrating and frequently chaotic, but the relationships that are forged between the students and staff is irreplaceable," she says."I decided to work in special education because I like people and I am interested in them. What I didn't realise is how much fun it is: there is not a day that goes by without one of my students making me laugh."

The former U.S. Rep. Doug Bereuter (Honorary Doctor of Letters, '10) began his remarks for the 2012 Carl and Mildred Curtis Lecture on Public Leadership by paying his respects to the Curtises. Bereuter's 25-year career in the U.S. House began the day after Carl Curtis capped his 40-year career in the House and Senate. Placed back-to-back, Curtis and Bereuter's combined 65 years of service in Congress span more than a quarter of America's 236-year history.
[We] must focus energetically on bringing our own house into fiscal order… to keep our country strong.
Bereuter led with that story to exemplify a point that he said Chinese diplomats never hesitate to raise with him: namely, that the U.S. is a very, very young country.
It's true. When China was our age, Jesus was in middle school.
So while we don't tend to think of Uncle Sam as anyone's little brother, China, with 1.2 billion people and 2,233 years of history, is much larger and much older. Where the U.S. has held an edge over China in modern history has been in economic and military power. That, too, is changing.
"By most estimates, China's GNP will surpass ours between 2020 and 2025," Bereuter said. He added that it would be unusual if the world's second largest economic power didn't translate that into larger military power.
Bereuter, who is the former president of The Asia Foundation, said that some in Asia view American power as declining, not just relative to China's rapid growth, but also in absolute terms.
What does this rapidly changing dynamic mean for the future of Sino-American relations? Is conflict inevitable? While Bereuter has significant concerns, he does not believe so. He quoted Henry Kissinger's stance on China in saying, "Conflict is a choice, not a necessity."
While China's economic growth is nothing short of jaw dropping, Bereuter said China also faces significant problems that many are quick to overlook. Those challenges include severe air pollution, limited access to potable water and the issues of an aging population and abortion-related gender imbalance—consequences of China's one-child policy.
Meanwhile, the U.S. faces its own steep challenges. He pointed to "two severe, self-inflicted blows in this country: the financial and reputational damage to the U.S. caused by the Iraq and Afghanistan wars." He said, "These wars have drained our resources, further exacerbated our huge fiscal problem, they've diverted federal funds from investments that America should have been making in education and in our badly deteriorating transportation infrastructure."
To maintain a position of strength in Sino-American relations, Bereuter emphasized that the U.S. "must focus energetically on bringing our own house into fiscal order, while at the same time reorienting our federal budget priorities to keep our country strong by greater investment of our revenues in improved infrastructure, research and development programs, and in the education and well-being of our citizens."

Should shark fishing be banned?
Exploitation has led to the threat of extinction for many shark species. In Chinese culture shark fins are used in the popular shark fin soup, as well as in traditional medicinal remedies, both of which are centuries old and hold significant cultural importance. Demand for shark fins kills 73 million sharks each year. One third of the shark species that swim in the open ocean have been classified as threatened, with some populations being reduced to 10% of their former size.
The European Union (EU) has been responsible for supplying 14% of the shark fins to the global market. In 2003, the EU placed a ban on shark finning, which is the practice of cutting off shark fins at sea and discarding the potentially still living body to the ocean. However a loop hole currently exists that allows fins to comprise a considerable part of any given catch. This year a new ban has been proposed to the European Parliament to remove this loophole and make it illegal to shore shark fins without the bodies. Will placing a new ban on shark finning be enough to prevent sharks from going extinct? Or, should the proposed ban on shark finning be extended to ban fishing sharks in general?
Closing Statement from Kirsten Gotting
Hello Contributors!
I have to say that every comment held great insight into this topic. Everyone helped open my mind to many of the possible avenues that this question could take. At this point in time I think that the most realistic way to help reestablish shark populations would be to enforce quotas and regulations regarding how many full sharks, fins still attached each fishing vessel would be able to bring in. This could change the availability of shark fins, but they would still be available for cultural traditions. I think that education will come with time, especially considering the example Jayant gave about young couples choosing not to serve the delicacy at their weddings for the sake of biodiversity. I'm not convinced that shark fisheries could be accomplished because of the tons of fish that would be required to feed the sharks. Additionally, farmed shark meat probably wouldn't taste the same as wild shark, kind of like how grass fed cow meat tastes different than grain.
Thank you everyone for your comments! I really enjoyed reading them and I hope everyone keeps sharks on their mind in the future! Lets preserve this ancient and majestic predator of the ocean, as they have helped preserve the biodiversity of the oceans that so many of us enjoy.

May 24 2012: While sharks undoubtedly need protection, there need to be specific regulations and quotas placed on them with solid enforcement to back it up. What often happens is that a regulation is put in place, then there is no funding to enforce it. There are also many shark species that don't currently seem threatened that could be utilized in a commercial fishery, albeit one that uses the entire fish, not just its fins. Finning is one of the most brutal and wasteful practices I can think of in the commercial fishing industry since the sharks are caught, pulled on board, their fins are cut off and then they are thrown into the ocean still alive while they die a slow, painful death.
Furthermore, since sharks are and apex predator, once they are gone the ecosystem is thrown into a tailspin. Off the West coast of the United States, the near extirpation of Great Whites caused an explosion in seal populations that then caused huge drops in other commercially valuable fish stocks. It is truly important to use our resources in the best, most efficient way possible. I don't foresee cultures giving up their rights to eating shark fins, but I can see a much more heavily regulated and sustainable fishery being set up.
May 24 2012: I agree with your stance, but I want to bring up a thought experiment that was once brought to my attention regarding apex predators. During the near extirpation of Great Whites, we saw a boom in seal populations. Why didn't we utilize this boom of seals for their seal blubber? In general, sharks will eat fish, squid, molluscs, crustaceans, turtles, dolphins, porpoises, rays and seals, etc. could we utilize their diet and incorporate it into our economy somehow?
May 24 2012: What an interesting idea; I wonder though even if we did utilize the increase of these populations wouldn't the next trophic level increase in population size, and then every trophic level after that? When would humans be able to stop checking and balancing ecosystems in order to fix a skewed trophic cascade?
I came across an article that details the affects of top down predation control on marine ecosystems, here's a link:
May 24 2012: While harvesting seals would undoubtedly result in a great source for blubber, etc. they were and still are protected by the Marine Mammals Act here in the United States. The problem is that the massive increase in seals hurt the lower trophic levels and, since we couldn't harvest the seals, this source of potential food was "lost" in a way. I do agree with you that it would make sense and would probably be more efficient.
May 29 2012: I don't think that humans filling in the gap left by sharks is the answer. I have to agree with Kirsten in that if we picked up the seal- (and other animals) eating slack left when there weren't enough sharks to keep their populations down, we would throw the food chain out of whack even more than it was already. If humans cultivated an appetite for the prey of sharks, we would consume those animals whether or not there was a need to keep the food chain in balance (i.e. whether or not there was a shortage of sharks due to shark finning or other reasons), resulting in the decline of all shark populations, even previously healthy ones. We wouldn't limit our seal and shark prey consumption by how many of these animals would naturally be eaten by sharks, but would continue hunting and catching them for as long as it was profitable. Perhaps seal blubber would become the next cultural "shark fin." In my opinion, any reason not to spark a demand for increased human consumption of a certain resource is a good one.

THE ANSWER to Linda J. White's
The heterosexual bias and arrogance of her views aside, White should at least be honest regarding the influences of her argument. She claims to have withheld any religious beliefs from her views, yet her references have very strong religious affiliations.
The Witherspoon Institute may bill itself as an independent institute, but its religiosity becomes clear once you take a cursory look at its Web site, or research who's who among its academicians and its associations to Opus Dei. In the Witherspoon report cited by White, three of the four psychologist signatories are faculty at a Catholic graduate school; the only psychiatrist signatory to the report is a member of the National Review Board of the U.S. Confederation of Catholic Bishops, and the president of Witherspoon is a member of Opus Dei. But more importantly, where are the facts to support their views?
As a licensed clinical social worker and mental health professional, I would like to point in the direction of contemporary scientific research and to the policy statements issued by so many of the major psychological and medical health organizations that clearly state that there is no reason to continue to keep homosexuals on the other side of White's picket fence. There's no reason for a fence.
According to the American Psychological Association, "Not a single study has found children of lesbian or gay parents to be disadvantaged in any significant respect relative to children of heterosexual parents. Indeed, the evidence to date suggests that home environments provided by lesbian and gay parents are as likely as those provided by heterosexual parents to support and enable children's psychosocial growth."
What people with beliefs like White's and the Witherspoon Institute's don't want you to know is that not only does the research show that homosexuals can be excellent spouses and parents, but that some of the research suggests that in some ways they might even be better as parents than heterosexuals. (This research suggests that lesbian couples have stronger parenting awareness skills than heterosexual couples, and that gay parents tend to discipline their children more effectively with positive techniques such as communication and reasoning rather than by using physical discipline such as spanking.)
I would encourage anyone with questions about the effects of marriage, civil-union, and domestic-partnership laws on the health and well-being of children to go to the American Academy of Pediatrics' Web site and find its recently published article on the subject ("The Effects of Marriage, Civil Union, and Domestic Partnership Laws on the Health and Well-being of Children"). This article speaks directly to White's concerns, and presents well-researched science regarding the kind of optimal support children need. It is scientific research without a religious agenda.
Much of the research and conclusions cited in this Pediatrics article fly in the face of White's misguided views. To quote a couple of examples: "Civil marriage is a legal status that promotes healthy families by conferring a powerful set of rights, benefits, and protections that cannot be obtained by other means. Civil marriage can help foster financial and legal security, psychosocial stability, and an augmented sense of societal acceptance and support. Legal recognition of a spouse can increase the ability of adult couples to provide and care for one another and fosters a nurturing and secure environment for their children Children who are raised by civilly married parents benefit from the legal status granted to their parents."
And, "There is ample evidence to show that children raised by same-gender parents fare as well as those raised by heterosexual parents. More than 25 years of research have documented that there is no relationship between parents' sexual orientation and any measure of a child's emotional, psychosocial, and behavioral adjustment. Conscientious and nurturing adults, whether they are men or women, heterosexual or homosexual, can be excellent parents. The rights, benefits, and protections of civil marriage can further strengthen these families."
Ironically, then, White's fence ends up being an obstacle to the strengthening of marriage, families and the nation that she claims she is trying to protect. Her fence actually weakens marriage and families and it undermines our nation by promoting division, exclusion, and instability. This is not the acceptance and respect of individuals and their right
When Nov. 7 arrives I will be voting

Royal Canin Exigent is specially formulated for fussy eaters. It helps maintain both the cat's ideal weight and its vitality, and satisfies the appetite of even the fussiest of cats.
To meet each and every cat's natural preference, even the fussiest, Royal Canin has developed 3 exclusive nutritional solutions for fussy cats. Based on the latest research in palatability, they respond to each cat's individual preference. Each product has a specific and original sensorial orientation while respecting all palatability criteria. Because the perception of palatability varies so widely in cats, let your cat decide!

|I had a sample of this given to me at the Supreme cat show at the NEC, Birmingham last November. I have 2 Maine Coons (brother and sister) and the boy is so fussy I was pleased he ate it with a relish. I then bought a packet and have found he isn't so keen. As another of your customers I mixed it with Royal Canin Sensible and he eats it with some coaxing. I am still looking for a food that he can really enjoy. His sister isn't fussy, but hardly nibbles it, but enjoys Wellbeloved turkey which she eats with a relish

Do Your Customers Feel Stalked?
Posted By Holly Buchanan On April 17, 2007 @ 10:21 am In Customer Focus,Email Marketing,Multichannel Marketing | No Comments
While the Internet is "public" space, your personal interaction with it is private. Or at least if feels private. It's your computer, it's your email inbox, it's your time and attention, and, more importantly, you're in control of what you see and do.
That's why things you can't control are accentuated on the Internet. You can watch a TV show and be interrupted by annoying commercials. But TV is the land of interruptive marketing. The consumer is NOT in control.
But on the Internet, the consumer IS in control. And they don't like it when you try to invade their space. Just look at Pop-Ups, one of the most despised methods of Internet advertising. [1]
And don't underestimate how protective people are of their email inbox. Email is a powerful way to build a relationship, but it's an equally powerful way to destroy a relationship. Continue reading "Do Your Customers Feel Stalked?"… [2]

About The Authors
CARRIE (GRACE CAROLINE) BARRON, M.D., is a board-certified psychiatrist/psychoanalyst on the clinical faculty of the Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons who also has a private practice in New York City. She has published in peer-reviewed journals, won several academic awards, and presented original works related to creativity and self-expression at national meetings of the American Psychoanalytic Association.
ALTON BARRON, M.D., is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon and is currently the President of the New York Society for Surgery of the Hand. He has been a surgeon for the New York Philharmonic Orchestra and Metropolitan Opera for more than a decade. Dr. Barron is a consultant for CBS and has appeared multiple times on the CBS Early Show. He has also written for The New York Times, has been listed annually since 2009 in The New York Times Magazine as one of the Super Docs, and has published extensively in multiple peer-reviewed journals and textbooks
In THE CREATIVITY CURE: A Do-It-Yourself Prescription for Happiness, husband-and-wife physicians Carrie and Alton Barron draw upon the latest psychological research, a combined forty years of medical practice, and personal experience to reveal that creative action is integral to easing depression and anxiety and to fueling long-term happiness and wellbeing. The need to create – to produce something using our minds and hands – is fundamental. It connects us to our inner selves and to our environment and offers the deep satisfaction of accomplishment. But too often, in our technology driven, fast-paced society, we neglect this need. The Barrons show that creative processes facilitate insight and healing, connect our mental and physical selves, supply satisfaction and meaning and thereby yield life changing results.
The five steps of THE CREATIVITY CURE—Insight, Movement, Mind Rest, Using Your Own Two Hands, and Mind Shift—lead the way to a more meaningful, fulfilling life by simultaneously developing self-understanding and self-expression. With the Barrons' detailed tools and strategies for cultivating creative outlets, overcoming unconscious fears and barriers to happiness, and linking internal thought to external action, readers will build the mindset and habits for happiness and positive change. They will experience—and learn how to sustain—the deep satisfaction that accompanies creating something by hand.
In addition to illustrative examples and personal stories of people using THE CREATIVITY CURE to transform their lives, the book includes commentary of creativity and well-being from clients and celebrities such as Bruce Springsteen and Lee Woodruff, though the Barron's show that one need not be an artist or writer or musician – though you never know – to take creative action and capture the contentment and life you crave. THE CREATIVITY CURE can be used by anyone, no experience necessary. This extraordinarily achievable plan will revolutionize the way we think about personal happiness and the connection between our creative selves and our true selves. THE CREATIVITY CURE is proof that a happier life is within reach - literally at your fingertips.

Afghan lawmakers said on Wednesday disaster and civil war would follow if Washington pushed ahead with a suggestion to withdraw all its troops from the country after 2014.
The White House said a day earlier it was considering the so-called "zero option" of a complete pullout – despite earlier recommendations from the top military commander in Afghanistan to keep soldiers there to help the government.
That option and the angry reaction from Afghan officials are likely to dominate talks between President Barack Obama and his Afghan counterpart Hamid Karzai in Washington on Friday.
The meeting was already likely to be tense, given ongoing strains in their relationship over the war.
"If Americans pull out all of their troops without a plan, the civil war of the 1990s would repeat itself," said Naeem Lalai, an outspoken lawmaker from volatile Kandahar province, the birthplace of the Taliban.
"It (full withdrawal) will pave the way for the Taliban to take over militarily," Lalai told Reuters.
When the Soviets left Afghanistan in 1989 after a decade-long war, financial aid dried up and the Afghan communist government collapsed, leading to infighting between warlords. A civil war paved the way for the Taliban's rise to power.
The United States has about 68,000 troops there and that number was already expected to reduce sharply ahead of December 31 2014 – the official end of the NATO-led combat mission in the country.
NATO and its partners are racing against the clock to train up Afghanistan's 350,000-strong security forces though questions remain over how they well they will be able to tackle insurgents in the face of intensifying violence.
Many leading Afghan officials had assumed some U.S. troops would stay.
"If American forces leave Afghanistan without properly training the Afghan security forces, and equipping them, it would be a disaster," said influential member of parliament Mirwais Yasini.
Member of parliament Shukria Barekzai said a total withdrawal after 2014 would be equivalent to the United States "accepting defeat".
The Taliban said it was still considering whether to respond to the White House statement when contacted by Reuters on Wednesday.
"It's very speculative and we are not commenting for now," said its spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid.
On Saturday the group reiterated its call for the immediate removal of all foreign troops from Afghanistan.
U.S. Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes said the complete withdrawal was "an option that we would consider" on Tuesday.
He made clear that a decision on post-2014 troop levels is not expected for months and will be made based on two U.S. security objectives in Afghanistan – denying a safe haven to al Qaeda and ensuring Afghan forces are trained and equipped so that they, and not foreign forces, can secure the nation.
Washington officials have privately said the White House is seeking a post-2014 presence of between 3,000 and 9,000 troops, which is significantly less than the 6,000 to 15,000 number given by the top commander, U.S. General John Allen.

5 Responses to "Afghan lawmakers predict disaster, civil war if U.S. pulls troops out"
How many more years would it take before Karzai's troups are prepared to take over the job of handling their own survival? From where I sit, it would seem that too many American troops are being killed during these training lessons.
Are we arming our own enemies?
I'm with Mr. Merle on this. How many? Forever.
Yes. See "Iran-Contra", chemical weapons to Saddam Hussein, and yes, running guns to the "Mujahedeen", aka Taliban…
One might wonder if this proves those who said "Going INTO Afghanistan is a pretty upscrewed idea!" at the time were actually right, and those rah-rah cheerleaders, "Hey, let's go invade somewhere!" were actually wrong.
I'd bet they'll admit it about the same time Karzai's troops are prepared.
instead of years think periods. like jurassic or cretaceous
Afghan lawmakers said on Wednesday disaster and civil war would follow if Washington pushed ahead with a suggestion to withdraw all its troops from the country after 2014.
Sounds like a confession of a puppet government. Yet we are told they are elected representatives of Afghanistan in democratic elections. A government that can't stand on it's own should fall and give way to a real government led by and for the people, if Afghanistan is really a democracy, which it obviously cannot be.
That would sorta accurately describe the USA circa 1771. If the British pulled out, who knows which tribe would win.
I will take issue with your remark, "if Afghanistan is really a democracy, which it obviously cannot be.", because democracy isn't the idea. What they want is a Democratic Republic, isn't it?
Are you claiming because they are religious they cannot be democratic? I might agree with that, but for different reasons (Who elected Jesus?).

This is the grave of J Dieter Gaumer, born Jan 12, 1722 and died Sept 22, 1794. I don't know much about him but what made him stick out to me was the stone underneath it.
He was a drummer in the revolutionary war. From what I have visited and seen, I usually don't get anything that specific. It was interesting.

The Brooklyn College Carroll and Milton Petrie Student Emergency Grant Fund
The Carroll and Milton Petrie Student Emergency Grant Fund has been created for the purpose of providing quick response emergency grants to students in good standing with short-term financial emergencies, to enable them to remain in school, rather than being forced to take a leave of absence or drop out.

The Carroll and Milton Petrie Student Emergency Grant Fund was created to provide eligible students facing short-term, non-recurring emergencies with a one-time grant to alleviate the situation. To insure that the greatest number of students in need get assistance, recipients will receive only one grant during their tenure at Brooklyn College.
The program seeks to assist students so they can continue and complete their education at the College. Precedence will be given to first-time degree-seeking students. The maximum award is $1,500 and all grant requests will require documentation. You will meet with the emergency resource assistant to discuss the appropriate documentation for your situation.
Eligibility Requirements for the Petrie Emergency Grant:
Students who can demonstrate need and are facing a current unexpected emergency may apply for this grant. The applicant must:
- have a good record of conduct
- have paid tuition to Brooklyn College
- be matriculated with a GPA minimum of 2.0 for undergraduates or 3.0 for graduate students

- Required uninsured medical treatment and/or follow-up
- An unanticipated loss resulting in a lack of funds to get to and from school
- Sudden loss of childcare to cover academic schedule

The City of Hialeah is the fifth largest municipality in Florida, serving over 224,000 residents living in approximately 20-square miles.
"All Ways Lead to Hialeah" one of the city's first slogans is well suited given that Hialeah sits in the heart of northwest Dade, and has access to every major thoroughfare (I-75, Palmetto Expressway, Florida Turnpike, US 27 (Okeechobee Road). In Hialeah you are about 20 minutes away from anywhere in the county. Hialeah borders Opa-Locka, Miami and Miami Lakes and provides direct business access to both Opa-Locka Airport and Miami International Airport.
The City of Hialeah is a full service city. Services include Police, Fire, Water & Sewer, and Public Works.
The City offers a wide range of free cultural activities, programs and events that appeal to the different backgrounds of its residents, enriching community life in Hialeah. The Art on Palm Festival, Eggstravaganza, the Independence Day Celebration and Santa's Snowblast are just a few of the annual city-wide events that Hialeah families enjoy.
The City of Hialeah has operated under a strong mayor form of government since its inception. Policy making and legislative authority are vested in a governing council consisting of a seven member council. The council is responsible for, among other things, passing ordinances and adopting the budget. The Mayor is responsible for carrying out the policies and ordinances of the council, overseeing the day-to-day operations of the government, and appointing the heads of various departments.
Hialeah, incorporated in 1925, has a long and proud history. One of the city's most important and nationally well-known historic sites is the Hialeah Park Racetrack, built in 1925. Hialeah Park is an important part of Hialeah's future as well. After a short period when the Park was closed to racing, Hialeah Park reopened in November 2009 with quarter horse racing and is currently undergoing a multi-staged full restoration. Exciting plans call for the construction of an entertainment complex to include a hotel, restaurants, casinos, stores and a theater. Just as Hialeah's past is an important part of its future, so is a new, recently annexed three square mile area, "Hialeah Heights," to be developed soon into a beautiful residential and commercial area in the northwest part of the City.

Haven't seen any tape on him but the kid hasn't started many games at Ole Miss. I don't know if his weight is a problem or not but it looks like he doesn't Carrie it well. Hope I'm wrong and proves to be maybe a solid backup to Raji.

This might be on the board someplace.. but should also be in this thread.
While the start of Thursday's NFL draft represents the continuation of many players' careers, it marks the end of even more.
Only 253 players will be drafted, forcing many to continue life without football.
NFL prospect Gilbert Pena already knows that feeling. At the age of 18 the Yonkers' resident chose family over football.
Pena walked away from the game for four years to work full-time to help his mother, Susan Cruz, who had thyroid cancer.
"It showed me the mature part of life and growing up and being an adult," said Pena, 26, of his time away from football. "I feel like it helped me. I'm a lot more mature than a guy that just graduated college."
Pena, a 6-foot-4 317-pound defensive tackle at Mississippi, who is projected to go in the seventh round or as a preferred free agent, worked as a cook and a manager of a plumbing and heating supply warehouse.
Despite earning all-section honors and receiving recruiting letters as a senior at Saunders, Pena's top priority was his mother's health.
"Me staying and helping my mom out was my number one concern," Pena said. "I was like, hey if (football) happens it happens. I knew that I needed my mom in my life."
In the fall of 2009, with the improvement of his mother's health, Pena enrolled at ASA junior college in Brooklyn and joined the football team. It was there coach Dennis Orlando convinced Pena his size and talent meant he could potentially play in the NFL.
I think when there's enough will and aggression, there's no shortage of talent either.

More after the jump.
Lighter, faster Gilbert Pena ready for big year with Ole Miss football team
By Ron Higgins
Monday, August 13, 2012
OXFORD, Miss. — Ole Miss senior defensive tackle Gilbert Pena's formula for earning increased playing time this football season sounds confusing, but it isn't.
The less you see of him, the more you'll see of him.
Measuring 6-2, 320 pounds, Pena still isn't exactly a world-class ballerina. But considering he's dropped 20 pounds from the time he stepped on campus in January 2011 as a junior college transfer, Pena suddenly has newfound quickness and energy that he is putting to effective use in the Rebels' preseason work.
"He's shown up ready to play almost every practice," coach Hugh Freeze said of Pena, who has consistently drawn double-team blocking in early practices. "He's trimmed down and definitely has a quicker twitch and more explosion."
It's all because Pena discovered you can actually eat lettuce separate from sticking it on a triple-stack hamburger.
"I definitely feel like I'm getting off the line faster and getting to the ball faster," said Pena, who had 11 tackles in 10 games last season after the Yonkers, N.Y., native transferred to Ole Miss from ASA College in Brooklyn. "I can take a lot more reps. Last year at this time, I was having trouble."
Pena's weight woes last season were self-induced, but more from his lack of understanding what is required to survive and thrive in the Southeastern Conference.
When Pena finished his 2010 junior college season as a first-team Northeast All-Conference selection, he weighed 315 pounds. Because he never watched much college football on TV — "That sounds crazy since I play football but that's the truth," Pena said — he naively assumed he needed to gain weight before he reported to any of the major colleges recruiting him.
So in the one-month period from the time Pena's JC season ended, to the moment he reported to Ole Miss, he gained 25 pounds after being wined and dined on recruiting visits.
I think when there's enough will and aggression, there's no shortage of talent either.

Between reading the second link about the weight loss and watching the video, I can only imagine how much better he would have been with weight and strength conditioning at a four year school. Jolly and Wilson better be ready to go come training camp with this guy and Boyd.
May not have the best looking number...but it's the sexiest! -David Bakhtiari

Nope. This week's Saturday morning run was the least enjoyable yet! This was hard to deal with on many levels, not the least of which was that I felt a little defeated. I think once you get beaten around a bit mentally by things, that's when you're really in trouble. I think I ran okay, and it wasn't a slower time or anything, but the heavy wind made it very uncomfortable for me. I struggled to catch my breath for much of the second half of the run, and that certainly makes it less enjoyable.
I'm finding that the first mile is where I settle in, and I can talk to my mum while we run and I enjoy it a lot more. So, with that in mind, my goal is to experience that for the entirety of the run as I get used to the distance. This week's topics of conversation were The Artist, my mother's feelings about George Clooney and celebrity teeth. It works for us.
Anyway, I hope that if any of you guys have been using the new year as an excuse for a fresh approach to exercise that it's going well!

How Do You Win in October? Tom Verducci Breaks Down the PlayoffsPosted: October 3, 2012 Filed under: Baseball, Weekly Issue | Tags: MLB Playoffs, MLB Strikeouts, San Francisco Giants, sports illustrated, tom verducci Comments Off
Baseball's postseason has changed—and so has everything you thought you knew about winning in October. The keys to becoming a 21st-century champ? Get hits with runners in scoring position. Put the bat on the ball and jump on every chance to score. And with the strikeout rate at an all time high, postseason success begins with hitters who avoid the K (page 42).
Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak said, "When putting a roster together, we're always looking for balance. We want some players who hit for power, for extra bases and we always like guys that get on base. What you're trying to avoid is somebody who strikes out a lot and is not a run producer."
If your team doesn't strike out and can hit with runners in scoring position, you may just find yourself in the Fall Classic. The past six teams to reach the World Series have ranked first, first, fifth, fourth, second and eighth in their leagues in fewest strikeouts. As for hitting with runners in scoring position, the past six World Series teams ranked first, first, 16th, third, fifth and 10th. This approach suits the Giants, Cardinals, Rangers and Tigers very well. They all finished in the top six in each category.

Dallaway from manuscripts in the possession of her grandson, the Marquess of Bute. First published in 1803. Lady Montagu was one of the most important female English writers between Aphra Behn and Jane Austen and one of the most provocative and entertaining writers of either sex in her day. She is especially remembered for her letters, particularly those from Turkey, where her husband was the British Ambassador. Her sharp but ever witty tongue provoked Pope and Walpole to write nasty attacks. She also helped introduce the Oriental practice of vaccination for smallpox to England. Bound in 20th century brown half morocco and marbled boards, spines with raised bands and elaborate gilt ornamentation, small oval volume numbers in black leather, marbled endpapers, page edges coloured yellow; a faithful and very handsome reproduction of a Regency binding.

Minor rubbing to edges of boards; quite minor rubbing to spine tips and outer corners touched up; a fine, lovely set, no owner names, neither hinges nor joints cracked, text exceptionally clean.

This is the definition of a good, solid recipe = three stars. It was tasty, light-ish, and easy to make. Didn't bowl me over or even close, but made a good dinner tonight since we were in the mood for something lighter tasting. I used less olive oil to saute, and about 2/3 the butter called for (just cut off a knob of butter about 1 1/2 Tbs). Used whole wheat pasta, and the nutty flavor complemented the asparagus and pecans. My kids didn't care for it, but they don't like anything.
Asparagus Pasta With Toasted Pecans
You might be tempted to drain off the chicken broth after cooking the asparagus, but we found that's one of the keys to the recipe's flavor.

Malgudi Days is an Indian television series based on the works of R.K. Narayan. The series was directed by Kannada actor and director, Shankar Nag and Carnatic musician L. Vaidyanathan composed the score. R. K Narayan's brother and acclaimed cartoonist R. K. Laxman was the sketch artist. The series was made in 1986 by film producer T. S. Narasimhan with Anant Nag as the lead actor.
Thirty-nine episodes of Malgudi Days were telecast on Doordarshan. Subsequently, it was re-telecast on Doordarshan and later on Sony Entertainment Television, and Maa Television in Telugu. This television series was shot entirely near Agumbe in Shimoga District, Karnataka.
In 2004, the project was revived with film-maker Kavitha Lankesh replacing Shankar Nag as director. The New Series was telecast from April 26, 2006 on Doordarshan.
Most of the stories in the series are one episode long. The stories are from the books A Horse and Two Goats, Malgudi Days, Swami and Friends and The Vendor Of Sweets.
Swami and Friends revolves around the everyday life of ten-year old Swaminathan, or Swami as he is known by other characters. Swami portrays the growing up pangs of a boy who despises school, as he makes excuses and roams around Malgudi with his friends. Swami's father works in a government office and his mother is a housewife. At home, Swami shares his adventures with his aged granny, who lovingly addresses him as "Chamy." Swami also has two close friends: Mani and the son of the Police Chief Superintendent, Rajam. Swami's character was portrayed by Manjunath, a regular actor in many of Shankar Nag's productions. The Vendor Of Sweets narrates the story of a sweet vendor, Jagan, his business and confrontation with his son who had returned from abroad. The title role was played by Kannada actor Anant Nag, and most of the actors cast in this serial were from Kannada film Industry. It was directed by Anant Nag's younger brother Shankar Nag.

Petition Drive
Rebuttal: Oklahomans for Modern Laws
Help Local Wineries – Creating additional wine outlets could benefit local wineries by providing them an
opportunity to expand their operations.
Consideration of Local Liquor Retailers by Limiting Licenses – In the surveys that we have conducted,
a reason that Oklahomans might oppose this law change is an increase in accessibility. We have addressed this
concern by limiting the number of licenses to the following three criteria: 1) Grocer with 25,000 square feet in
Floor Space, 2) Counties with a population of 50,000 or greater, and 3) Two license per entity every two years
phase-in period.
Antiquated Laws – Our laws governing off-premise sales have been virtually unchanged since the appeal of
prohibition in 1959 (with the exception of Election Day sales). Societies evolve and so should the laws that
govern them.
Competing with Neighboring States – Our state frequently competes both directly and indirectly for
investments, jobs, and talented professionals. This small change sends a message that Oklahoma is willing to
make the tough choices to make convenience and quality of life a top priority for our citizens.
Attraction of New Retail Outlets – National retailers bring both capital investment dollars and more
competitive jobs with higher wages and better benefits.
Sooner Poll
Here's a link to the Sooner Poll showing that a majority of Oklahomans would like to see liquor, wine and strong beer sales stay right where they are now.
W.I.G.S. (Wine In Grocery Stores)
Those arguing in favor of change, particularly the Oklahoma City Chamber of Commerce, falsely claim that allowing grocery and convenience stores to sell wine and strong beer in Oklahoma will attract new business, jobs and tax revenue to the state.
What they fail to acknowledge is all of the local jobs and businesses that will be lost as a result of big box retailers getting into a business that has been completely local since Oklahoma started allowing the sale of strong beer and wine in 1959.
1) Put some of the current local grocery and convenience stores out of business who already struggle to compete with giant multi-national corporations who buy much of their product from China and other overseas suppliers.
2) Take jobs and businesses away from Oklahomans who work in and own retail package stores. For every "additional" job that a big, impersonal Costco or Sunflower Market creates, one job will be lost at a local wine or spirits shop.
3) Money that used to stay completely local will now flow out of the state to corporate headquarters in Arkansas, Arizona, Washington and California. Not one of these grocery store chains that are pushing for a change in Oklahoma liquor laws has its headquarters in Oklahoma. Meanwhile, money that is currently spent in local retail package stores is money that stays in Oklahoma. Since all retail package stores are locally owned and operated and the owners of these stores shop locally, the vast majority of money spent at your local wine and spirits shop stays not just Oklahoma but right in the community where it is spent.
Putting the false economics of the pro-W.I.G.S. interests aside, there is also the extra cost caused by the increased availability of strong alcohol. The cost of more drunk drivers, more underage drinking and more need for government enforcement to help mitigate these social ills.
In short W.I.G.S. makes no sense for the people of Oklahoma. It is poor direction both economically and socially. That is why the RLAO is fighting to keep our current (working) system in place.
Natural Grocers, a progressive grocery store based in Colorado, supports these views and has a very nicely written piece devoted to such as a result of a similar initiative in their home state. They recently opened a store in Norman.

Art, Walks, and Workshops for Nature Appreciation
I make Green Fanzines with nature curious folks in local workshops
Chicken Dream Green Zine is my personal Green 'zine.
A chicken dream is something you hold onto
when you're feeling disconnected from nature
and I've always dreamed
of sporting dew covered clogs and
tossing millet to my own chickens,
passing an egg basket to my kids,
and inviting them to explore the free range.
When I ask around, it turns out
a lot of us wish we had our
very own hens or gardens
to connect us to our foodweb,
but we don't even have backyards.
Chicken Dream Green Zine
is for so many of us
who love and live in the
city and suburbs,
who want to see green growth
in our ecosystem.
In the spirit of our collective,
chicken and garden dreams,
we celebrate:
urban outings
green spaces
wild cohabitants
nature connection
healthy soil
fresh food
and your discoveries.

"It's not unusual for food lovers to toy with the notion of adding chickens to a thriving garden or building a rooftop coop. Now the novelty has become reality: despite coyotes, foxes and the occasional cage-break, many urbanites and suburbanites are raising their own eggs."

This large pub is situated on 'Blackstone Edge', which is on the Moors leading over to West Yorkshire.
On clear days, you get fantastic views of the moors & surrounding villages. ...It can be a wee bit chilly & windy though, if you need to have a smoke outside!
The food menu is extensive: ranging from snacks, main meals, specials & a la carte. So, there is something available to suit all budgets, large or small.
The portions are generous & alot of the dishes are home-made on the premises. Customer service is friendly.
It is a great pub for all the family, and also good for special occasions.
The location is a great spot for walkers, to take a rest & grab a drink & a bite to eat. You can also, just have a hot drink with a sweet, if thats what you fancy.
There are entertainment nights, which include: quizzes, discos, themed nights & local artists.
I feel that the only downside to this pub, is that it is a little out of the way, from the main Village - so transport is required. Therefore - you may need to abstain from alcohol consumption, if a car is your only means of getting there.
This user has arrived from Qype, a European company acquired by Yelp in 2012. We have integrated the two sites to bring you one great local experience.

It's always been a dream of ours to cook every meal in a Dutch oven. Unfortunately that's not always possible, which means that sometimes your Dutch oven has to be put away and stored. Hopefully, not for too long. But no matter the length of time your Dutch oven is not in use, a couple simple tricks when putting it away can ensure that it's ready to go when it's time to cook.

Topic - XX Ben Nevis
Liam Brown - on 16 Jul 2013
In issue 73 of Climb, Dave MacLeod mentions a route called XX put up by Blair Fyffe on the Comb, on Ben Nevis, as a 200m E3. However, I can't find record of it anywhere, although there is a relatively recent E3 there put up by Tony Stone and Blair Fyffe called Mumbles. However, this doesn't sound right.
My search for information is somewhat hindered by not having the SMC guidebook to hand. It may be there. This would solve the issue.
Otherwise can anyone point me in the direction of a description or shed some light?

Any team coupling the spirit of Stephen Jackson with the coaching methods of Larry Brown has to be intriguing to watch. You have to admit, it's sort of impressive how they limped into the playoffs last year on their defensive ability alone (DRtg- 102.8, 1st).
This upcoming 2010-11 season seems to hold the same amount of mystery as last year. There wasn't too much shuffling of the roster this summer. The one glaring loss has to be at point guard, with Felton (Win Shares- 6.5) leaving for New Yawk. Other than that, the core of the franchise remains in tact.
CRASH will be CRASH. Jax is going to put up the usual 19, 5, 4. Boris Diaw will flummox fantasy owners worldwide. Coach Brown will shout defensive schemes until his diaphragm slowly deteriorates (I hope that doesn't happen). Tyrus Thomas is going to finally become the Stromile Swift-like player we all KNOW he was meant to be. Derrick Brown could turn into David West 2.0. The rest is up to the basketball gods.
Sounds fun, doesn't it?
However, with an owner like Michael Jeffrey Jordan, mediocrity cannot be tolerated. He knows better; the greatest expects greatness. Thus, I expect them to barely miss out on nabbing that coveted 8th seed in the East. The Knicks, Heat, Pacers, and Bucks all improved greatly in the off-season, while Charlotte stood pat. Maybe it's because I hate D.J. Augustin.
Key Additions:
Kwame Brown (?), Sherron Collins, Darius Miles (head bump).
Key Subtractions:
Raymond Felton, Raja Bell's defensive presence & Tyson Chandler's innate ability to finish alley-oops.
Predictions & Fun Facts:
- The 'Cats win 40 games and miss the playoffs.
- Kwame will be waived.
- Nazr Mohammed starts at least 15 games at center.

George Entwistle, the BBC and Jimmy Savile: the insanity continues
George Entwistle, the BBC's Director General, has appeared in front of the House of Commons Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee.
The CMS Select Committee is, apparently, now the appropriate parliamentary forum for investigating allegations of serious sexual abuse against children. Not that the children got much of a look in. Once again, it was what BBC managers, reporters and producers had or hadn't done to investigate the allegations of child abuse that dominated proceedings.
Actually that's wrong. The bulk of the questioning didn't relate to what they'd done to prevent the abuse. It was primarily focused on why they hadn't broadcast a TV programme into the alleged abuse.
The committee's main thrust was twofold. First, why hadn't senior BBC executives conducted a comprehensive review into the Savile allegations and the decision to axe a Newsnight program into those allegations. Second, why were senior BBC executives hiding behind their recently commissioned comprehensive review into the allegations, and not answering the MPs' questions.
George Entwistle may be up to his neck in this scandal and his attempts to answer the MPs' questions were nervous and faltering. But to be honest, who can blame him? He's damned if he does, and damned if he doesn't. On the one hand we've got Ed Miliband and others demanding an independent inquiry into Savile. On the other we have MPs demanding to know why BBC executives haven't already conducted their own investigation, found all the answers and shared their findings with Parliament.
It's hard to sum up the full stupefying lunacy of the proceedings. Why had the BBC rushed out an inaccurate statement on the Newsnight allegations, Entwistle was asked by one committee member. Why had they taken so long to put out an accurate statement on the Newsnight allegations, he was asked by another.
Hadn't Entwistle put undue pressure on a BBC producer by asking them to ensure any allegations regarding Savile were dealt with in precisely the same way as he was alive, he was asked by one MP. Why hadn't he intervened more directly in the debate over the broadcast, he was asked by their colleague.
And so it went on. In one breath BBC managers were guilty of compromising the editorial integrity of their output. In another they were guilty of not exercising enough managerial control over their output.
The craziest moment of all came when the committee began asking questions about the previous night's Panorama, which had focused on the spiking of the infamous Newsnight broadcast. Why had a particular email not been included in the program, one MP demanded to know. Why hadn't tougher questions been asked inquired another. Parliament was now chasing the cover up of the cover up of the cover up of the cover up.
The whole thing was a grotesque, self-indulgent farce. Meanwhile the police continue the painstaking work of trying to bring what they fear is one of Britain's most prolific paedophile rings to justice. Let's hope they do a better job than the House of Commons did today.
