Jaime Sizemore, Maya Angelou Elementary, Kindergarten
She had a kindergarten orientation for all of the parents to come and learn skills to help us teach our children at home. When she was talking about our kids, she got really emotional and told us that she loves all of our children and wants to see them succeed. She has made the transition from Pre-K to Kindergarten so easy for my son, and myself. – Jennifer Holway
Debbie Bampton, Ridgeview Elementary, 4th grade
To help her students to use more descriptive words in their writing, Mrs. Bampton made pancakes so the students could hear the sounds, taste the pancakes and use all of their senses while writing! This was great for the class and they had fun while learning. She is also a very caring teacher!- McKenzie Kelly
Julie McInturff, Southridge, Photography
Ms. McInturff is such an amazing teacher and DECA advisor at our school. She makes sure everybody knows how to the subject before she moves on. She never yells at anybody and her hair is different every day! Ms. McInturff does more than just teach, she is our DECA advisor which means she had to keep track of money and answer any questions that students have. These are just a few of the reasons why Ms. McInturff should be the teacher of the month! – Derek Doyle
Trista Thompkins, Children's Center, Headstart
Trista has my children's teacher for the past two years. Teaching isn't just about come in learn this leave to her. It's about building relationships and helping the families grow together. Showing the parents and families how they can be the best teachers for their children. Guiding them in the right direction for help whether it's to a local food bank or electrocute help. To a winter coats. She always has a warm welcome and smile for each if her students. They are truly "her" kids. It's not just ABC's and 123′s it's about the kids and developing who they are and skills for life. – Holly Stutzman
Susan Larson, St josephs Catholic School, Kindergarten
She is an amazing teacher and works hard for her class. My daughter loves going to school and is thriving in her class. She also has 6 children of her own. She is amazing and completely deserves this. – Jessica Evans
Kirsten Brault, Jefferson Elementary School, Extended Resource Room
My son was in her class for 4 years. This is his first year with the other ERR teacher Ms.Candy Smith. Mrs. Brault is so sweet and so patient with all of the special needs children in the classes. She knows exactly how to get and keep their attention, redirect them if needed, and when to put them in refocus. The kids not only learn the "school/education" information but they learn how to create and maintain a routine and how to earn, save, and spend "money. She helps them learn to work in groups and cooperate with children they may not be getting along with at the time. She helps them learn to use their words to communicate what they want, like, dislike, and their frustrations so that they learn a better way to communicate than getting angry and physical. I honestly believe that my son would not be as far along as he is now, would not have improved so much, had he not have her a s a teacher for the past 4 years. She really deserves this. – Heather Green
Tanager Stanhope, Cascade Elementary, Special Ed / Autism class
Tanager is a fantastic woman. She's calm and understanding and works with kids with Autism of any spectrum. My son has Aspergers and has been having a hard time in school. He was transferred to her class and is doing much better. She had kids from kindergarten to 5th grade and gives each one the time they need. I'm amazed at her patience. She's perky and fun and the kids love her. – Dejah Felton
Laura Bulson, Columbia Basin College, Statistics
Listens to students' concerns, and she accommodates her teaching method according to our needs. She is very nice and caring to us. We've never had a teacher that focused her teaching on how her students can learn the content the best way possible. She does not treat students unfairly, because she does not expect memorization and regurgitation. She always makes sure that students understand the material well before moving on to the next content. She modifies her teaching when she notices that there are learning gaps in her students based on exam results. – Sarah Aniceto
Debra Hanson, Jefferson Elementary, Preschool
Mrs Hanson is more than a teacher,she has a great big heart and very dedicated in what she does. Mrs Hanson has been a big inspiration in my life. She was my first teacher and helped me open up and become prepared to grow and learn for my future years. Everytime I run into her at school I give her a big hug and she brightens my day. Please pick Mrs Hanson she deserves it. Sincerely Eduardo 5yrs old. – Eduardo Gonzalez
Chuck Saari, Kamiakin High School, Math
Mr. Saari is not just a great teacher, he is an interpreter, taking challenging math concepts and making them intellectually tangible for students at Kamiakin High School. I had Mr. Saari as my geometry teacher my freshman year. His exceptional teaching abilities launched me onto a path where math became one of my best subjects.
Last summer, between my junior and senior year, I worked as an intern at PNNL. Without a strong foundation in math, this opportunity would never have been available to me. I have not always been able to have Mr. Saari as my teacher, but he has always made himself available before and after school to tutor and assist me in understanding concepts I struggled with.
This year, as a senior, I purposely selected to take an AP Statistics class knowing that Mr. Saari would be teaching the course. I am thankful to have started and ended my high school math with Mr. Saari, who is someone I can without hesitation recommend for a teacher's awards.
Today, when I walked into my Statistics class, Mr. Saari greeted me with the sports section from the Tri-City Herald. On the front page was a photo of myself from our varsity volleyball game last night. I had no idea I was in the paper and it was a surprise to me and something I could share and celebrate with Mr. Saari just today. Mr Saari is not just a teacher, he is a mentor, an encourager and the foundation of the math department at Kamiakin High School.
While teaching may feel like a thankless job at times, I wanted to take a moment and "thank" Mr. Saari for all he does not only for myself, but all the students working their way though math classes at Kamiakin. – Kaileah Akker
Pam Kehret, Hanford High, Consumer Economics
When I moved schools my senior year she really made me feel like Hanford was a good school and have me a class to look forward to during the day. – Kyrstin Siler
Ms. Celski is a single mother of three that gets up every morning, and kisses her children goodbye to go and teach our children the basics of elementary education. She has always wanted to be a teacher, and delights in seeing former students doing well in school. In the future, she would like to have a former student say they wanted to be a teacher because of her classroom – Colleena Alexander
She is very passionate about her job and cares very much for her students. She is also a great mentor and great role model – Joshua Ockleston
Tabitha is so deserving of this! She loves her job and adores all of her students. I know she would love to get new books for the students in her class as they are over crowded and don't have alot of budget money for things – Rachel Alexander
She helps you when need it and does not call you out. She always has fun teaching that always makes me want to come back in the morning. She has an awesome personality and I can only wish I had her this year. She makes me want to be a teacher my self I really hope she wins this I think she deserves this- Ryen Garcia RYen
I have been a parent volunteer in Ms. Baudrand's class for 4 years now. This is a woman so well prepared, so understanding of children's nature, and so patient. I learn things from Ms. Baudrand's interaction with her students that I use in our home and in other places where I have dealings with children. Because of her, I have something good to pass along. I have seen her connect with and make a difference to every child in her classroom– from the child who knows everything and is yearning for more, to the child who doesn't speak English and struggles to grasp anything. Ms. Baudrand can reach each child and she does. Ms. Baudrand deserves to be teacher of the month this month and every month – Hillary Gessel
My mom teaches me and my siblings at home. Every day. And she teaches everything. She is probably the smartest person I've ever met. And she's also nice. And never calls you out if you don't know something. She's always encouraging. Anyway I think my mom never gets enough credit for what she does as a wife, mom, and teacher. She is so patient and I would never wish to be taught by anyone else. Love you mom – Janie Grant
She works so hard and hardly have any time to her self. She works crazy hard teaching, helping, instructing, reading and making sure we understand everything. She teaches three kids (including me) two teens and a pre-teen. All different grades can be difficult to teach. I love her so much! She should be nominated because of these reasons and shes great to get to know as well. Shes not JUST a teacher, shes also a friend. She is the best teacher ever! She really deserves this. Thank You- Katelin Grant
Mrs. Choate is an amazing teacher. She treats the students as they should be treated. She is my favorite teacher. She has tought me so many things in life and quotes from amazing writers. She makes all the students feel welcome right when they enter her class room! She should win because this year she is possibly retiring and for all these years working at PHS she has influenced so many kids and brought out the best in everyone! Winning this conest would be the least I could do for her after everything she has done for me – Kalijha Bicknell
Alana always has a smile on her face and loves her job at Head Start. Her class consists of children that are either Low Income, Disabled or have other special needs.
Part of her job is to visit families in their home and determine if they need help from the community. Many times I've heard the sadness in her voice when she comes across a family that is struggling. When this happens she makes sure she finds clothes and food for her "kids".
In and out of school Alana has her children in mind and is always looking for new and inventive ways to help them learn.
Alana shared with me just the other day that she saw one of her former parents. She said that the Mom gave her the best complement EVER! After many hugs the Mom told her (In her broken English) that she took the child to the Dr. and he understood what the Dr. had said in English. The first time ever. ALana was beaming. She had made a difference and continues to make a difference each and every day!!!- Carol Henifin
Ms. Tate is a teacher who will stop at nothing to make sure that all of her students will succeed. She is more than just a Mathematics teacher. She is a role model to everyone. She is inspirational and thoughtful. While she may seem like a tough teacher that's what makes her great. She will encourage the students to go farther than they think they can in their academics. Ms. Tate has a teaching style that works for almost everyone. In her classes she will combine as many learning styles as possible to accommodate for every student while making sure they are still moving along and learning. If she sees a student struggling she will either find them help among their peers or help them one on one so that they will not fall behind in class. Never before had I come across a teacher who will put forth such an effort for her students even when they no longer care. Ms. Tate is an exceptional teacher who works much to hard and much to long. She is under appreciated for what she does and its time she is recognized for her efforts. She would put in hours of her personal time to improve her lessons from day to day so that they are easier to understand and flow with each different topic. Like I said before, she will stop at nothing to help every single student succeed even in their most hopeless moments. Ms. Tate has been a teacher at Delta High School for three full years going on her fourth. In those three years she has been inspiring not just to students, but to other teachers as well. She has worked long and hard for her own peers and students and recognition is long over due for this wonderful teacher.
Such a fun and patient teacher! She incorporates lots of play and fun activities for my daughter and the other kids to learn - Tiffany Rodabaugh
She is amazing with each one of her students. Mrs. Ulk makes these kids feel like they are her favorite and does not make them feel like they are in her class because they are stupid or because they are less than any other child in their class. My son loves her and can't wait until each day comes to go to her class. She is an amazing woman and a wonderful teacher - Schaffino Nicole
Bob puts his all into his teaching every day. He doesn't just see his work as a job. He believes in these kids and takes the time to get to know each one as an individual so he can maximize his impact on each child's learning – Tricia Fotheringham
This lady gets to work over an hour early, stays one to two hours late and works on the weekends. She truly cares for her students and they always come back to her to thank her for believing in them. She's very deserving – Tabitha Celski
As a second year teacher, Stephanie has shown so much passion for teaching and cares about her students. She, like many teachers, spends her own money to decorate her classroom to make it a fun and engaging learning environment for her students. Her family pitches in to help decorate and her classroom is amazing – it's a jungle theme, complete with a teacher's desk that looks like a safari jeep.
Stephanie is always willing to go the extra mile to help her students and ensure that they are successful. Her students love her and I know the feeling is mutual – Renee Brooks
Ms. McDermott is a wonderful, caring teacher who supports her students with high needs in all areas of learning. My daughter, who has Autism Spectrum Disorder and ADHD transferred from another school, with severe school related anxiety and was two grades behind her peers. Ms. McDermott immediately worked on teaching my daughter successfully to read and helped her to be in the general education class with her peers. She is truly a skilled and dedicated teacher, and an amazing person – Patricia Thrush
She works tirelessly for her kids! She is an amazing teacher with a special ability to connect with children and pull the best behavior from them – Lisa Edler
As a sub I am in and out of classrooms daily, So i get to see a bunch of different teaching styles, and different ways teachers handle situations, etc. Hawthorne Elementary is always my favorite to sub at. If the whole Building could win this award- they should! Since I have to choose one-It's Sandy. She is by far the best Special Education teacher I've ever worked with. She loves those kids, and loves her job. She is just so wonderful. She knows exactly the needs of each child and follows through with those. Special Ed. is not an easy class, especially with young children, But Sandy handles it so well and each child strives in that class. She deserves everything – Ashley Nielsen
I am nominating Maribeth to thank her for all the tremendous support she has given me and other students over the years. She was my favorite history teacher when I was in middle school and I was blessed again to have her as a mentor when I returned and did my student teaching 15 years later! The care that Maribeth puts into her teaching shines through toher students on a daily basis. She knows exactly when a kind word is needed to brighten a day or when a child needs "a moment to themselves" to gather their emotions. Maribeth has worked tirelessly in the public school system for over 30 years. Her gentle touch resonates through the generations and will hopefully continue to do so for many more years to come. Thank you, Maribeth – Elisabeth Potter
She really knows how to make kids comfortable starting middle school. She is fun but keeps a good learning environment in the classroom. I think she would love a little pampering – Tina Pierini
Karen is just one I the kindest ladies I've met. I worked in her class as an assistant. She cares about every single student like her own child. She also has the patience of a saint. Great lady who definitely deserves to win – Hollie Pawlack
Carrie works with low income students. She goes out of her way to make sure everyone learns. School is 97% free and reduce lunch. She is so caring even when the students are a challenge – Margarita Morfin
My daughter is a special needs child and she has been AMAZING and so supportive. Mrs. Hilton was my 4th grade teacher, when I went to school there 27 years ago. So many years of her time and devotion to educating our children…. Mrs. Hilton deserves this – Nicole Barber
Mrs. Beihn is an astounding teacher. Not only does she have a rigourous class, it is a fun, interactive one as well. Since being at several schools, Mrs. Biehn has definitely stood out to me as one of the best mentors I could've ever had. She is genuinely caring and an all-around awesome person – Gianna Nino
Mrs. Dann is the most lovely person I know. She does not teach a class; she makes it a family and she raises it, every single day. She not only helps you to achieve greatness in the classroom, but she genuinely cares about the student's home life as well! She has helped me to become a much greater person, and she has helped to shape me into the person that I am today. She is standing by her husband's side who is fighting the hardest battle of them all: cancer. She is the STRONGEST woman I've EVER met, and I could not be more proud of her! She has left a loving mark on me and my entire family, and also on every single student who has had the pleasure to be a part of her classes. Aside from her warm and beautiful heart, she puts together an amazing choir each year, for every grade. She is beyond smart behind the piano and within the vocal chords! She is part of the Mid-Columbia Ma stersingers and she is an incredible performer! She is not afraid to be silly and has outstanding confidence! She INSPIRES me to be a better person and to always follow my dreams. She gives me great hope for the future! Her inner and outer beauty shines like the sun, and there is no other person who deserves this Teacher of the Month award as much as her – Taylor Monson
She is one of the best teachers in the world, very motivated and uses allot of her time for others, and without her help I wouldn't be in college.
She simply is a giver and it's time to give back – Sam Nassar

Privatization and Regulation of Public Utilities in Latvia
AbstractIn order to address the question "How far is Eastern Europe from Brussels?" this paper examines specific policy areas of concern to the EU (e.g. those related to the implementation of the single market). Furthermore, it is argued that a country-by-country and issue-by-issue approach is required to assess the readiness of the Associated States for EU entry, in terms of reforms undertaken so far and likely progress in satisfying the conditions expected to be required for EU membership during the next few years.

September 17, 2014
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) -- Former President Bill Clinton has recorded an audio advertisement opposing North Carolina's proposed constitutional amendment that would define marriage as a union between a man and a woman.
The ad will be pushed to the phones of hundreds of thousands of North Carolina voters beginning Monday. In it, Clinton urges voters to oppose the amendment, saying it won't change North Carolina's statutory ban on gay marriages.
But he says it will affect the state's ability to attract new businesses and will take health care from children. He says it also could diminish the state's laws protecting women from domestic violence.
The pro-amendment side also has its share of heavy hitters supporting it. The Rev. Billy Graham issued a statement supporting the amendment, saying the Bible is clear that God's definition of marriage is between a man and a woman.

Spend an evening at Vermont's Castle with exclusive tours, food, drinks, music, and mystery.
Murder Mysteries Live! 2013. Sept. 14th & 28th and Oct. 12th. $35 pp. 18+ only. Call for tickets.
Murder Mysteries live! is a combination of Dinner theater, scavenger hunt and reality game. Unlike many Murder Mystery parties, you will not be given a character to play, nor will we ask you to pretend that it is another time period or setting. You can just be yourself or assume an identity that you will play for the entire evening, it is your choice. If this is your first time, you may want to play it straight and get a good feel of the game. Each Mystery will be different, so tell your friends and come back again and again. Murder Mysteries can be created for private parties of 14-30 people, with a minimum of 14 to book a private one. We can taylor parties for any age but generally, we prefer 18 and up.
Cocktail hour is from 6pm until 7pm. You must arrive before 6:30pm with proof of purchase. Tickets must be purchased prior to day of event. Without attendance of 14 or more, the event will be cancelled and any ticket purchase will be refunded. Please confirm prior to arriving during 9 to 5 business hours. You may bring any beverage you prefer, we provide ice and glasses.
Cocktail hour is a good time to do a little exploring and to get some early information on your competitors. Remember, anything could be a clue, anyone in the castle could be a suspect, so be very alert and don't trust everything you hear. At 7pm, you will be greeted by your Host and creator of the Castle after Dark series, Rusty Trombley. You will be given a history of the Castle and the basics of the game. At this time you will be able to ask any questions that you have, but you will only be given so much to go on. Solving the night's Mystery will take some keen detective work, imagination, memory and maybe even some deception to throw off your competition. Greed and dishonesty is fair game. Scenarios, participants and rewards can and will change at any time.
After your historic tour of the Castle, everyone will gather for drinks, hors d'oeuvres and the Mystery information for you to proceed. We offer a diverse selection of foods to suit any diet and offer complimentary water, iced tea, glasses and ice for any beverage you prefer to bring. We do not serve alcohol, but you may bring and enjoy it as you wish. Our self serve menu varies each week and might include items such as boneless chicken, meatballs, salads, cheese & crackers, sandwiches and fruits and vegetables. This is not a sit down dinner. During this time, be social, get names, and be alert because schemes may already be taking place, and you, yes you, may even get accused of Murder, cold blooded, MURDER!
After intermission, you will be given exclusive rights to search this mysterious mansion and the secrets that it houses. Pay attention and watch other's reactions. You are permitted to "gently Search" in unlocked closets, drawers and rooms during the next phase of your Evening. At some point, you will be asked for your first impressions and deductions. If you are getting close, we will step the game up a notch or send you back hunting for clues. At the end, you will submit what you think is the solution to the night's mystery and all facts we be revealed.
Be inquisitive, creative and mysterious. It is likely that one of you is the culprit or at least a co-conspirator. Your participation is a major part of the night, so let a little extra out, and we will too. Join us for the Castle After Dark from June until October on select dates or book your own private Mystery evening, for a birthday, anniversary, or company party with 14 or more. The cost is $35 a person, 18+ only and please semi-formal to formal or period costume is preferred. No shorts or sandals. You may want to bring a flashlight, camera and notepad. Most Mysteries end around 10:30PM. Cell phone should be shut off from 7pm until completion.
Scheduled dates are Sept. 14th & 28th and Oct. 12th.

Colorado State expected to make formal offer to Martin tomorrow
The Board of Governors of the Colorado State University System meets Friday morning with a single item on the agenda: Consideration of officially offering LSU Chancellor Mike Martin the job of chancellor of the CSU System. Martin was named the only finalist May 10. He has not said whether he intends to take the job, but he has confirmed that he would seriously consider the offer, if made. Martin was selected by an 11-member committee that spent nearly eight months conducting a nationwide search for the next chancellor of the CSU System, which includes CSU in Fort Collins, CSU-Pueblo and the online CSU-Global Campus. Martin has been chancellor of LSU's flagship campus since 2008. The next chancellor of the CSU System will succeed Joe Blake, who stepped down as chancellor in December.

Missy Mae
» Busty Girl-Next-Door
Hey, Missy. Have your boobs gotten bigger since you fucked in the June '09 issue?
"A little bit. They're almost a DD-cup now! That's just crazy. I think they're too big for me. I told my boyfriend that I wanted to get a breast reduction, but he begged me not to. He said it's because I'm perfect the way I am, but I have a feeling it's really because he loves it when I titty-fuck him! It is a fun thing to do. And I don't even mind when he cums on my face and boobs after tittyfucking. But still! Having big boobs is a mission. They're heavy and they get in the way of everything I do!"
But your big boobs look great! Please don't get a reduction, Missy!
"That's one of the things that makes me want to keep them. They look good, especially when I'm wearing a push-up bra and they're popping out. That's the only time I don't mind wearing a bra. Otherwise they kind of bother me 'cause they're uncomfortable. I just wish I had someone who could walk behind me all day and hold my boobs up!"
We're sure you could find someone to do that for you. "Oh, believe me. I've had offers! Too bad it's not realistic. But I'm more than willing to compromise and just let them hold my boobs for a little bit."

WALLOPS ISLAND, Va - NASA's Hurricane and Severe Storm Sentinel (HS3) will fly two Global Hawk unmanned aerial vehicles to over the Atlantic Ocean to study tropical cyclones and hurricanes this month.
"What we're doing is we're flying over hurricanes over the Atlantic, down in the Caribbean and in the gulf. We're flying these systems to look at the interior structure, we're flying around these tropical storms to look at their dynamics that control the behavior of the storm," says Paul Newman, Deputy Project Scientist of HS3.
The advantages of flying such an aircraft is the fact that it can be above a hurricane, rather than flying right into one.
"We can fly over storms. Most of the current conventional aircrafts we have will fly into a hurricane, whereas this can fly above it and look into the hurricane," says Newman.
When the military got rid of their Global Hawks, some people at NASA Goddard wanted to use these aircrafts to do hurricane recon. After writing a proposal to NASA headquarters, they were able to obtain the aircrafts and use them.
"Flying over it [hurricanes] is much safer and we're at a much higher altitude, so you can get a profile of the storm so that's the value it brings," says Jon Newhosue, a NASA Global Hawk Pilot.
This is the 2nd year that Global Hawks are being flown from the Wallops Flight Facility, and they are expected to do the same next year. In 2015, scientists will take a look at the data that they will have collected over the past 3 years.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
This is going to sound emo, and/or like reverse QQing, but I'm a little upset by both this column and a lot of these comments. I've run both ICC and Naxx (weekly) as well as multiple heroics and several dummy tests. As of the time this column went up, warrior DPS had been buffed to be more than adequate. The columns worry me because there are apparently a lot of people speaking out of turn, delivering knee-jerk reactions without testing things for themselves.
Per my previous comment, I don't believe that warrior damage will ever top out as high as it did in ICC with ArP capping and gear scaling, but it's not reasonable to expect that. Warrior DPS is now on a par with other hybrid DPS, and Arms and Fury are now both raid-viable. I'm not sure what's left to complain about (from a DPS standpoint of course).
Just my $.02 and I'll shut up now.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
Rogues exemplify a facet of pvp that I think is a poor game mechanic. Nobody wants to go into a battle and be helpless. Nobody pays 20 bucks a month to play a game, so they can go into a battleground and have a rogue sap them three times in a row, stunlock them after with backstabs, kidney shots, blindness, etc..
People want to feel like they had options. Good game design follows a rock, paper, scissors strategy where you were outplayed because you picked rock when you should of picked paper. But fighting a rogue is just walking into a "can't do anything situation"
I remember reading blue posts that echoed the above sentiments slightly, and talk of making rogues less dependent on "stun lock" but like so many things, it never seemed to materialize.
Cheeselandman said...
Anyone can beat a rogue. Even without a pvp trinket, a rogue and another class have equal footing. What a rogue specializes in is mind games- that is, making their opponent panic and do something stupid.
Rogues are PvP powerhouses, and if played well they will succeed, but that is not limited to rogues.

Extending Existing Grant Arrangements
Five Year Agreements for Family and Relationship Services, Communities for Children Facilitating Partners and Family Law Services
Family and Relationship Services, Communities for Children Facilitating Partners and Family Law Services have been offered five year funding as part of the Australian Government's commitment to deliver strong outcomes for Australian families and focus on early intervention and prevention.
Five year funding will allow providers to invest resources strategically over the life of the agreement and use the best evidence based practices to get results over time.
Other services will be offered extensions in line with other DSS programme arrangement.
A complete list of extensions is now available.
When will this occur?
Five year agreements took effect on 1 July 2014.
Six and 12 month Extensions
The Department offered funding extensions to the majority of existing service providers with grant funding due to expire on or before 30 June 2014.
Extensions will enable service providers to continue service delivery as the new grant programme arrangements are put in place over the coming 12 months.
Extensions were offered for either six or 12 months, allowing the Department to implement better funding arrangements in the longer term, including improved programme performance reporting and reduced administrative red tape for providers.
Six Month Extensions
Most existing agreements were offered extensions for six months, allowing the Department to put longer term agreements and processes in place from the end of 2014 which reflect the Government's broader approach to working with civil society.
This will result in better arrangements for providers in the longer term, while ensuring important services are continued in the immediate future.
12 Months Extensions
Some agreements relating to aged care, disability and mental health services were offered 12 month extensions. This will assist providers to transition into the National Disability Insurance Scheme, the Aged Care Commonwealth Home Support Program, or other long term, ongoing programmes.
A small number of grants have funding agreements in place until 30 June 2015 and 30 June 2016. These arrangements will continue until their expiry. Further information on how those grants will transition into the new arrangements will be provided to funded organisations closer to the conclusion of those agreements.

No Refrigerator? No Problem: 8 Ideas for Vegetarian Lunches From the Freezer
I recently returned to school full-time, which means that instead of keeping my lunch cool in the workplace refrigerator, I'm now toting it around with me until midday. I've turned to my freezer to help provide healthy, filling vegetarian lunches every day with frozen meals that thaw out in my bag over the course of the morning and are ready to heat and eat by the time lunch arrives.
Whether you're running all over campus or working in an office without access to a fridge, here are eight ideas for straight-from-the-freezer vegetarian meals to make lunchtime easier.
• 1. Calzones: Bake a big batch of vegetable calzones and freeze them individually for later. I've been using half whole wheat flour in the dough and stuffing the calzones with roasted eggplant, mushrooms, kale, tomato sauce and a little ricotta.
• 2. Soup: Portion your soup and freeze it in muffin tins, canning jars or plastic containers and warm it up at lunchtime.
• 3. Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich (Pockets): For a simple lunch on the go, make and freeze PB&J sandwiches in bulk, or try this recipe for extra-portable Whole Wheat Peanut Butter and Jelly Pockets.
• 4. Enchiladas: Make a pan of enchiladas — you can even do it in the slow-cooker, as in this recipe for Slow-Cooker Black Bean Enchiladas — and portion them into individual containers.
• 5. Vegetable Wraps: These Roasted Sweet Potato Wraps with Caramelized Onions and Pesto freeze well and can be made with any type of roasted vegetable.
• 6. Burritos: Making your own frozen burritos is simple, economical and totally customizable.
• 7. Vegetarian Meatballs: Meatballs made with vegetables, legumes and grains in place of the usual ground meat are a light yet filling lunch option.
• 8. Chili: Try freezing recipes like this Black Bean, Sweet Potato and Quinoa Chili in portions for a hearty fall lunch.
Do you have any ideas for great lunches from the freezer?

Thanks for these great ideas!
One of my favorite on-the-go lunches is a homemade WW scone, a wedge of good cheese, and a big crisp apple. I love rosemary raisin scones best.
A freezer lunch I've been doing for my kids is pumpkin bread sandwiches (I blogged them here: http://thriftathome.blogspot.com/2012/11/pumpkin-bread-sandwiches.html) and an apple and a bag of home-popped popcorn.
This is a topic near to my heart! I think about it a lot.

Risden Engineering isn't really a household name in the auto tuning industry relative to all the big names that are out there.
But when you're talking about performance upgrades, these guys do it with a capital 'P'.
Their latest foray into the world of aftermarket upgrades is a track-focused program for BMW's resident luxury sports coupe, the mighty M6 Coupe .
Details have been scarce at this point, partly because Risden is targeting a launch by the first quarter of 2013, but we expect nothing less than a complete juicing up of pony power, in addition to a possible weight reduction, a suspension improvement, and aerodynamic upgrades, all of which Risden has been known to be extremely awesome at.
Judging by the photos, the aero components certainly speak for themselves. There's a new front bumper with its own spoiler, new fenders with multiple air outlets, a trunk lid spoiler, an enormous rear wing, and a vented rear bumper with what looks like a new diffuser and trapezoidal twin tailpipes.
That's our observation based on the photos Risden Engineering released. It doesn't mean we'll see the exact same thing, but we're confident that these guys will have a completed program that will blow the lid off of any expectations we may have of it.

Women are the internet, and the internet is women. How else to explain male writers' terror about taking it with them to the office? Women writers may admit they have a hard time working while online, but for men this appears to be a much more profound issue, and in some cases a hardware problem. (Zadie Smith thanks the internet-blocking application Freedom on the acknowledgments page of her latest book, but she didn't name an entire novel after it.) Men tear the ethernet cord out of the socket, they hot-glue the socket, they use computers so old they say they were made without a socket. They claim they must avoid the internet so as not to masturbate all over their computers (see "The Porn Machine," Issue Five). But their stories of covering up and gluing shut suggest that for men the internet is in fact the site of a perverse fear of penetration. They have withdrawn into a cult of the unplugged.

Every time a plane flies over New York, we think, "Oh my God — is it another Atlantic think piece?" We mean, "an Atlantic think piece about women." The two have become synonymous, and they descend upon their target audience with the regularity and severe abdominal cramping of Seasonale. "Why Women Still Can't Have It All," "The End of Men," "Marry Him!" These are articles intended to terrorize unmarried women, otherwise known as educated straight women in their twenties and thirties, otherwise known as a valuable market, if not for reliable lovers then at least for advertisers. Their purpose is to revive one formerly robust man of the house, who for years has been languishing on his deathbed: the cigar-smoking, suspender-snapping, mansplaining American general interest magazine.

In the mornings, we watched another group of women hail jitneys to the outskirts of town, surrounded by street kids and begging amputees who lost their limbs to land mines. These women sewed clothes and reported to Chinese factory contractors, who reported to American managers, who reported to shareholders. Every once in a while, an exposé about the sweatshops reached American televised news. To Z, shareholders had an astoundingly predictable, biannual ritual of expressing shock about the sweatshop conditions in which these women earned less than $2 a day.

The management of excessive anticoagulation due to warfarin therapy largely depends on the following:
whether or not the patient is bleeding
extent and site of bleeding
indication for anticoagulation
degree of suppression of the (vitamin K−dependent) coagulation factors
A major determinant of bleeding caused by warfarin therapy is the international normalised ratio (INR). Bleeding risk increaes exponentially from INR 5 to 9. (1) An INR ≥6 should be monitored closely.
Managing an excessively prolonged INR or bleeding caused by warfarin therapy may include:
Withholding warfarin
Vitamin K1 (phytomenadione)
Effect on INR takes approximately 6–12 hours to become apparent
Large doses (10–20 mg) may produce some resistance to re-warfarinisation but are appropriate if a clinical decision has been made to discontinue further treatment with warfarin
Small doses (1–5 mg) have less resistance to re-warfarinisation, and are still effective in correcting an abnormally high INR within 24 hours in most cases
Plasma transfusion
Usually requires 10−15 mL/kg to correct the coagulopathy
The effect is immediate
Only a small volume is required and a full dose can be administered in minutes, with no time delay in needing to thaw a fresch component or to blood group the patient

WASHINGTON (NBC News) -- As we said on Friday, we've entered Bizarro Washington where the usually divided and almost-always partisan House of Representatives passes a budget deal by an overwhelming 332-94 vote, but where that same deal is far from a sure thing in the Senate.
But before Tuesday's cloture vote, we can now say that there appear to be the 60 votes needed to clear the procedural hurdle. Per NBC News' count, at least five Senate Republicans say they're supporting "yes" on the cloture vote -- Sens. John McCain (R-AZ), Jeff Flake (R-AZ), Susan Collins (R-ME), Richard Burr (R-NC), and Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI). In fact, Johnson released this statement on Sunday: "Although I disagree with a number of provisions in the bill, on balance the good outweighs the bad. As long as the Senate does nothing to worsen the bill, I intend to support it."
What's more, NBC's Kasie Hunt says that GOP Sens. Rob Portman (R-OH), John Hoeven (R-ND), and Bob Corker (R-TN) are on the fence at least when it comes to the decision about whether to cut off debate.
Bottom line: While there might be a Democratic defection or two, 60 votes appears to be much more obtainable today than it was late last week. There won't be much drama.
And speaking of Paul Ryan and compromise: In the past, your First Read authors have made this observation about House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan (R-WI): Despite all the attention he's received on budget matters, he had never once seriously compromised with Democrats in an attempt to get "something." After all, he was a "NO" vote on Simpson-Bowles, even as he was rhetorically praising the work of the group. And his budgets -- even after being on the losing ticket in the 2012 race -- never budged an inch.
So with that said, we want to underscore the role that Ryan played in forging this bipartisan budget deal. "Government has to function. And we saw the specter of two possible government shutdowns in 2014, one in January and one in October," he said on "Meet the Press" over the weekend. "I don't think that's good for anybody. It's not good for the country."
Yes, the budget deal was the bare minimum. And yes, Ryan himself is saying that House Republicans might not raise the debt ceiling next year without concessions from Democrats. But the fact is, Ryan -- for the first time -- used his considerable political capital with conservatives to work with Democrats. And without him, this deal probably doesn't pass as smoothly as it did.
While there has been a ton of focus on Speaker Boehner speaking out against some of the conservative groups, realize, Ryan's authorship on this deal was probably more important in getting a majority of the GOP conference than Boehner's fighting words against Heritage or the Club.

End of the line for mall bus route?
The Petersburg Area Transit system is considering ending the popular bus route to Southpark Mall in an effort to save money
The Southpark Mall route, which averages over a three-month period 133 riders Monday through Friday and 171 riders on Saturday. Although the route is popular with residents either looking to shop at retail areas in neighboring Colonial Heights or residents using the bus as a way to get to work, officials recommend ending the route.
Cutting the mall bus route save the city $244,717 for the upcoming fiscal year, according to officials.
Why cut a bus route that brings Petersburg area customers and workers to Southpark Mall? It seems like a move, while it could save some money, would damage the regional economy - never mind the toll it would have on those who use the bus to get to work.
Simply put, it seems like a short-sighted and bad idea.
Petersburg Area Transit Director Gha-is Bashir Paige said the route was recommended for elimination because Colonial Heights hasn't committed to partially or fully funding the route. Colonial Heights benefits from the route through tax dollars spent in their city by residents riding the bus.
Mayor Brian Moore said that he recently had a discussion with Colonial Heights Mayor Scott Davis and City Manager Thomas Mattis. Both wanted to know how many Colonial Heights residents make use of the route.
Colonial Heights is apparently not interested in maintaining the "bridge" as that city has not expressed at this point any interest in funding the route, Paige said. He added that he personally sent letters to both Colonial Heights city officials and to Southpark Mall management. "The city asked for numbers of riders from Colonial Heights and the mall has not responded," Paige added.
Director of Public Works Steven Hicks explained that like many transit systems, the cost of operation is usually subsidized by local, state, and the federal government. No transit system exists solely on fares. Much of the funding for transit operations, particularly at the state and federal level has dried up. He added that in the near future the transit system will be looking at smaller buses for the system.
In the meantime, it's time for Colonial Heights officials to get aboard and at least discuss the Southpark Mall bus route with Petersburg. We understand, Colonial Heights viewpoint that its citizens probably don't use the bus route. But that bus route provides an economic benefit to Colonial Heights - and that is worth some amount of financial support for it.
This is where regionalization is supposed to work. Two city governments working together for their mutual benefit. If not, losing the Southpark Mall bus route will be a lose-lose situation.

As you can see I haven't always been a fitness enthusiast. My educational background is actually in Finance (honors). Yes, I was a math nerd. Why, the switch? Because I have found my passion, not just something I'm good at. My obsession is motivating people to feel better from the inside out.
I was blessed to have met a great trainer and I hope to be able to achieve the same connection/friendships. I want to meet your goals just as badly as you do, I love seeing the change in peoples body and life.
I have recently had a baby boy and took a 9 month vacation from working out (due to smell sensitivity). I put on close to 50lbs over this period. I'm proud to say I'm back to my pre-baby weight, no gimmicks, no fads, no starving, just steadily increasing my activity (not killing myself).
Ultimately, I have no idea where this new career path is going to take me. All I know is that I adore fitness, love meeting new people and encouraging them to meet their goals. I'm proof that it is possible and that it's not just a quick fix but a permanent lifestyle.
