Posted on 09/23/2012 4:51:11 AM PDT by Kaslin
In Wisconsin, high school athletes are complaining about not getting enough to eat each day, due to the skimpy new school lunch menu mandated by the United States Department of Agriculture and First Lady Michelle Obama.
The story we published earlier this week on that subject is unfortunately not unique. Students across the country are complaining about the new school lunch regulations.
Perhaps the real motive is to starve students into slimming down. Just ask students in Pierre, South Dakota who, too, are in an all-out revolt.
"I know a lot of my friends who are just drinking a jug of milk for their lunch. And they are not getting a proper meal," middle school student Samantha Gortmaker told Keloland.com.
Despite the fact that the new regulations have increased the cost of a lunch 20 to 25 cents per plate, its not pleasing students.
Some are throwing away their vegetables while others are adapting to the rules by becoming industrious. In New Bedford, Massachusetts, students have created a black market - for chocolate syrup. The kiddie capitalists are smuggling in bottles of it and selling it by the squeeze, according to SouthCoastToday.com.
Nancy Carvalho, director of food services for New Bedford Public Schools, was quoted as saying that hummus and black bean salads have been tough sells in elementary cafeterias. That means even smaller children are going through the day fighting hunger pains, which can never be considered a good thing.
One government official tried to put the blame on the students.
"One thing I think we need to keep in mind as kids say they're still hungry is that many children aren't used to eating fruits and vegetables at home, much less at school. So it's a change in what they are eating. If they are still hungry, it's that they are not eating all the food that's being offered," USDA Deputy Undersecretary Janey Thornton was quoted as saying.
Ms. Thornton just put her finger on the problem. The government is trying to impose a new diet that children are not accustomed to. Its not reasonable to expect them to either eat what the government deems healthy or go hungry.
Many will opt to go hungry, and thats the governments fault.
get the feds out of our schools
" In New Bedford, Massachusetts, students have created a black market - for chocolate syrup."
Lol! Force the kiddies into system D early so they learn it well.
I wonder what malia and sasha get to cram down their throats at lunch. Oh, that's right -—they go to that espensive private school for the 1 percenters. Those reduced calories are only for the little people. You control what people get to eat, you control the people.
So lots of folk agree our kids need to eat better but if someone we hate tries to correct that is, it's bad?
So American kids are starving. MO doesn't care. Her spawn are being nourished.
And USDA Deputy Undersecretary Janey Thornton might try eating that hogslop before judging children whose parents pay her salary.
And no one ever got the name of the person who threw the NC child's lunch away and made her buy pink slime chicken strips. A lawsuit would have exposed that info in a hurry.
Parents need to rise up and have this thrown out. Food is just the start. Just think what could be next- they are totally usurping your authority as their parents.
Yes, when done by governmental force it's very bad and as noted here, completely counter-productive. School menus should be decided on a local basis not by a national imperial edict.
The US Dept of Education spends almost $20 BILLION a year, lots of it borrowed. Close it down. Save the money, save the kids.
So if the local school district is in a poor environment and the people that live there are not healthy to start with, the kids should just eat what they are told to eat by the locals? What about fed funding for these schools?

30 years ago, my children didn't care for the food in their schools' cafeteria. For all those years, I was up early to make 5 lunches that were nutritious, and were what my children would eat.
Peanut butter was a staple at our house, as well as a few other things they liked.
They are all now healthy adults, raising children of their own.
Again, how in the hell can Obama still be winning in the polls?
People don't like the change that's coming down from government but yet these morons keep supporting the rats that do this kind of crap.
Why would anyone put humus on a kid's plate to eat? I don't even like humus, why would a kid? The school lunches were not that bad, nutritionally plus, the kids would at least eat the food. There has to be a balance in what is served...
My daughter is an athlete and says she's starving everyday even when she eats the lunch. Even the non-athletes are hungry. I noticed her bringing snacks, mostly healthy, to school, which she never did before. She has a BMI of 21.3 and hasn't gained any weight despite the extra food and she's even checked this herself, but she knows she's bringing extra food to school and wondering if it was going to make her gain weight. I don't want her obsessing on her weight, either. She said some kids are scraping together whatever few dollars they have and going over to the convenience store near the school before or after school and are eating tons of candy bars, chips, whatever. So whatever this new dietary plan is, it isn't working. I can pack my kids a lunch, but a lot of parents won't. What it comes down to is kids are now getting the lunch (many of them for free), tossing most of it or still being hungry after eating what is edible, coming up with money and eating convenience store junk. Not helping the situation. Tax payers are paying for lunch that winds up in the garbage and some how kids that get "free" lunch can afford candy and soda after school to stop the hunger pains. Go figure. Spending more, eating worse, and more gov't control. And being hungry all day during class. Thanks Michelle!
The union sees that the teachers have what is needed to keep the voters from rebelling against the system and the gov't. provides the money to provide the influence.
I won't take the time to look it up, but I think the national average cost per pupil is something like 7 or 8 thousand a year.
For school districts that no longer provide paper, pencils and all the OTHER things I got for free from the Boston Public School District (it was stamped on the green pencils we got), wayyy back in neanderthal times ... 1953 or 4, They're not broke.
And who are you or anyone else to decide for them what they should eat? How many times have "experts" told us what was good for us to eat and how many times have they quietly revised the food pyramids and their recommendations? The obesity we see now is because of the incorrect recommendations the experts made in the past and because of the lack of recess and the longer school days. If the Federal governments butted out the schools could experiment locally to see what works. Hint recess and lots of food choices. Any moron should have figured out by now that forbidding or limiting sweets makes them desirable especially to suggestable kids. We never limited sweets, never pushed them and our kids could take them or leave them. We wound up throwing out Halloween candy en mass a week later. Coercion is not the answer to any question when it comes to Government and its law abiding citizen and social engineering should be outlawed.
"We are Hungry" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2IB7NDUSBOo
What's the food you hate the most?
Would it be good if we made a situation where that was the only food you had available for 8 hours of the day 5 days out of the week? Would you consider it benevolent of us if we said you had to either eat that thing you hate or else go hungry for most of your waking hours? Since we know what is good for you, and there's no other food that's good for you except the crap that we know you hate?
Interstingly enough, you should see what these inner-city kids are eating. Mostly, Hot Fries, candy and soda. They bring them in from home and just push the cafe food around the plate at lunch time. In my two years at a inner city charter school I NEVER saw any kid eat anything healthy.
Yet Michelle doesn't mention that.
"For all those years, I was up early to make 5 lunches"
Is it still an option in public schools?
Yeah; I think I could make a good ad for the RNC with that.
This is unreal. If we can't get these clowns out of office this year; we should hang it up.
Where do you think 'federal money' comes from?
And why do you think that money should be used as a cudgel to extort behavior out of the people it was taken from?
Meat eaters are not as easily controlled as are the veggies.
It's all about control.
The way to get recognized as an "expert" in that system is to come up with a "new" revision that overthrows the previous system. It doesn't have to be true, just plausible enough to form a new paradigm. Time passes, and then another wannabe "expert" comes along...lather, rinse, repeat.
It's relatively harmless when it's just slick health magazines pushing the stuff — you can purchase them or not — but here, it's happening with the federal government behind it.
If God had wanted the government to raise kids, He could have given them to the government. But what we see IRL is that He actually gives them to parents. who are then responsible for them. It figures, since kids don't do well in the federally mandated one-size-fits-all-or-else regimen. This kid can eat PB&J, which would send that other one to the hospital. Fine: parents can give individual attention where it is needed, and they don't have to worry about being charged with favoritism because they don't do the same for the neighbors' kids, for whom they are not responsible.
Make out that the gummint is responsible for everybody, and you make this one-size-fits-all-but-actually-fits-nobody regimen the law of the land.
You can't have your pudding if you don't eat your meat!
It would be if my kids were still in school! I have no idea what the options are today.
Our son is a high school athlete, and he's come home with the same complaint of inadequate food portions. The cafeteria staff are sympathetic but tell the kids that they'll be fired if they give larger portions. Our son has already decided to go to a nearby convenience store before he swims at 5:30am to pick up a suitably sized hoagie for lunch rather than go to the cafeteria and go hungry. Absurd.
"For school districts that no longer provide paper, pencils and all the OTHER things I got for free from the Boston Public School District (it was stamped on the green pencils we got), wayyy back in neanderthal times ... 1953 or 4, They're not broke".
You didn't get them for free. It was a way for the schools to give tax payer pencils to kids that did not or could not bring their own.
In the third grade at my school we were made to put all our own pencils into a box on the teachers desk for everyone to use as needed, these were pencils (a certain number, I don't remember) we were required to buy and bring to school on the first day, of course there were a lot of kids who brought none. Communism in its simplest form.
When the box emptied we were told how many more we were required to bring. To her credit, the teacher also bought pencils and paper on her own.
I know my parent's tax dollars paid for the pencils, but I got pencils, paper, and an eraser at the beginning of the year ... up until around 5th or 6th grade.
I think the pencils were still available in Jr High, but we were too cool for them ... we bought BICs.
,,,,, just shut up and eat it ,,,, I'm the boss around here .
"What years are you referring to and what school district?"
Third grade, about 20 years ago, Illinois.
I was speaking with a high school girl and she said that the "meat" being served wasn't meat at all but soy. Has anyone else heard of this?
It isn't who casts the votes, it's who counts the ballots.
The Big Lie sez: "Duh1 is winning".
If enough people believe that, they might get demoralized and not vote against him. If enough people believe the votes are close, it will be a running screen for the massive voter fraud the dems will need to take swing states.
Of course the polls are being reported as saying Obama is doing well...look at who is doing the reporting.
Our little local school district is going to cancel "grandparents day" because they are ashamed to serve the grandparents the food they are required to serve the children. The staff and all knows that no one likes the crap they have to serve.
When you can force citizens to buy health insurance, you can force them to eat what you want them to eat.
LOL...me too! I did the math...[average] 365 school days X 5 sammies X 12 years of school is 21,900 sandwiches. We deserve some kind of a brown bag award! LOL
The first day of school [via my GD], kids bring home notices of *peanut butter* allergies of some kid in the classroom....so PBJ sammies are NOT allowed. When the heck did *this* all happen? Ridiculous.
If you all vote right these kids will get decent food Jan. 20th...2013
I agree with your sarcastic comment. Non nutritious junk food served in schools has been a problem. If the kids are hungry then they need to bring their own lunch to school. Very simple solution.
Never discuss sex, politics or religion.
Read today's newspaper.
It is for the transfer of information I frequent FR.
There is SO much here, but as in all infopaks ... if we don't have complete data .. we come to wrong conclusions.
Our ages make things different ... not wrong ... just different.
What the heck is humus? I thought that was something you add to garden soil.
My kiddos go to private school that does not provide food service, so they all pack. They get a meat and cheese sandwich, sliced veggies with dip (baby carrots, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers) a salty snack, dessert and a bottled water. Their father feeds them a healthy breakfast before school. When I pink them up in the afternoon they are starving. The kids skipping the gross lunch must really be hungry.
I am a special education para-educator (in other words, a teachers aide) in a Maryland public school. School breakfast is $1.30 and school lunches are $2.45 for middle and high schools ($1.20 and $2.25 for breakfast and lunch in elementary schools) Bringing in packed lunches from home is still an option here in our schools as I pack my sons (and my own) lunch.
my niece, with 2 grade schoolers, has reported numerous kids pooping their pants ... unable to cope with the fiber in whole grain bread
So where do you draw the line where the federal monster has to stop at ?
I assume these children have at least one parent...who are responsible for their well being?
Personally, I think the federal government needs to receive your weekly dinner plans to make sure you are not eating too many bon bons...if you don't you will need to pay a tax surcharge...
"What the heck is humus? I thought that was something you add to garden soil."
I eat it occasionally, as a chip dip. Kind of thick for that though.
I love homeschooling my kids. We eat lots of beef, chicken, pork, and still have stuff around like PBJ sandwiches, fruits and veggies, and sweets if we want 'em. We have heavy whipping cream as a staple, buy butter by the case, high fat content stews, and quality salts, basically everything the extremists say is unhealthy, and I have not one single fat kid. Everyone is healthy.
NO ONE tells my kids what they can or cannot have but my wife or myself. How much is this worth to me? 75% of my property tax that goes to the public schools that I won't ever see a dime's worth of benefit from, and having to buy my own curriculum every year. It's worth every penny of that.
In addition, I don't have "gay pride" crap, demo-crap, and other crap shoved down my kids' throats every day, and I don't have to deprogram them when they get home.
One of my co-workers is the President of the school board in his district, and he's been talking about their lax attitude about getting switched over to the Moochelle food program. We have some interesting conversations at work!

My name is Ted and I love to teach music. I have been a guitarist for 25 years with 13 years being professional. I have also taught lessons for the last 10 years.
Mostly I enjoy being able to offer back what was given to me when I was a student. A solid skills foundation combined with fun and enjoyment will keep you interested and dedicated to your instrument.
As a guitarist I have spent years doing "session" studio work out of the northern new york music scene in and out of my own production company, Ted S. Music. I first attended SUNY Oneonta and received a Bachelor's Degree in Music Industry and then went on to start my production company specializing in producing local singer songwriters. This allowed me to become somewhat of a chameleon, having to assume many different playing styles in order to meet the needs of the artists I was producing. Privately I have taught instrument instruction since 2004.
While not recording or teaching I take care of my two Siberian Huskies and spend time with my very artsy wife who loves math, designs dresses, and creates dog collars. We are a unique pair!
*** Lesson Details ***
My lessons are simple.
Initially we will meet and discuss your goals and desires. If you are a younger student I will strongly recommend a music theory foundation however, the focus will always be to find the things that inspire you, center in on those, and learn them. That is the only way to keep you dedicated and interested. A strong foundation will allow you to grow exponentially, but learning your favorite songs will keep you enjoying music!
*** Studio Equipment ***
My studio consists of a learning space for instrument instruction as well as a recording lab for audio engineering instruction.
*** Specialties ***
Rock, Country, Bluegrass, Acoustic Fingerstyle, Electric
SESAC, Inc is a performing rights organization with headquarters in Nashville and offices in New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Miami and London. Performing rights organizations (there are three in the US) are business designed to represent songwriters and publishers and their right to be compensated for having their music performed in public.

Combine the watermelon juice, tequila, margarita mix and fresh lime juice together into a carafe ( for easy pouring ) and then sprinkled in a bit of Tajin into the bottom of each mold. Note that the Tajin will spread once you start pouring the liquid in the mold so pour oh so slowly!
Freeze overnight for 24 hours and then you're ready to party. Olé!

Focus on Women Stories
A combined effort by health, water, sanitation and nutrition partners, including the World Food Programme (WFP), to reduce alarming malnutrition rates amongst Sudanese refugees who have settled in Maban County of South Sudan, is beginning to yield fruit. Parents say they have seen dramatic improvements in their children's health.
Today, WFP celebrates World Food Day in Afghanistan along with its sister agency, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the Ministry of Agriculture, Irrigation and Livestock. This year the emphasis is on supporting agricultural cooperatives and farmers' organizations.
WFP in Laos is expanding its successful Mother and Child Health and Nutrition Programme to a second province. Young children in the remote north of Laos simply love the food they receive through the programme: Plumpy'Doz is a specialised nutritious food that helps prevent malnutrition. In an area where 50 to 60 percent of children under the age of five are chronically malnourished, the peanut-based paste is key to keep children growing strong and healthy.
This article originally appeared in print in the German magazine, Maxi, for its July 2012 edition. All text and photos are by David Weyand. What follows below is the full article, translated from German.
WFP food rations can be an incentive for families to send women on training courses, where they learn how to read and write as well as basic marketable crafts. Enjila Hashimi spoke to women on a course in Kabul to find out what difference such a food-for-training activity had made in their lives.

The environments in which we work can have a profound influence on our productivity and creativity. As many more of us work in an officier situation, often at home, the designs of our workstations becomes increasingly important. This post brings together 25 examples of awesomely cool office designs, setups chosen to amaze and inspire.
1. Levine Residence by Jeremy Levine
This is architect Jeremy Levine's cool office setup at his residence in Eagle Rock, California. The room is furnished with custom built items constructed from recycled building materials from the original house build including plywood shelves and desks, which are suspended from the vaulted ceiling to free-up floor space. Windows open across the entire west wall, bathing the office in bright Californian sunlight.
2. My Office by Juhan Sonin
Minimalist and clean desktops compliment the expanse of screen space available on Juhan Sonin's dual Apple 30" LCD monitors to create a superb working space.
3. Home Office by Jacques Nyemb
Jacques Nyemb of www.jofalltrades.com took several years to get his office setup just right. The bay of windows really open up the space and promote creativity, while the ergonomically-designed Mesh Managers chair eases the effects of late night design activities.
4. MySpace by Lisa Risager
Freelance webdesigner and webdeveloper Lisa Risager also works on craft and sewing projects and likes to keep her art materials close to hand, as we see in her office. There's a certain Scandinavian aesthetic in the space with its bare wooden features and pastel tones. The windows open out onto views of Istedgade in Copenhagen, Denmark.
5. A Desk With a View by Techhie
Three massive screens give this office space an immersive visual experience. The panoramic image spread across the screens was lifted from Google Maps and edited in Photoshop to emphasize the width of LCD real estate.
6. Multi Monitor Mahem by Aldo Gonzalez
This office features even more screen space, with an awesome collection of nine displays, powered by two computers. Office owner Aldo Gonzalez has subsequently admitted that the setup was a little over the top, and has since downsized to humble collection of four screens.
7. Workstation 2 by Sean MacEntee
Sean MacEntee's cool office setup occupies a cosy corner in his home's roof space, with a skylight providing daytime illumination.
8. Amazing Office by Chris Meller
This is an absolutely amazing office space with bare brickwork, contemporary-classic furnishings and massive windows providing a calming and creative ambience.
9. Brooklyn Home Office by Mackenzie Kosut
Mackenzie Kosut has opted for a minimalist approach to his office layout, with simple features and concealed computers and speakers. The clean feel allows the focus to fall on the gorgeous cityscapes of Brooklyn seen through the windows. In addition to the views, the windows also serve as brainstorming boards, as Kosut uses dry erase markers on the glass to sketch ideas during project work.
10. Innovation Lab by Régine Debatty
Innovation Lab presents a design concept that rethinks the traditional office cubicle with cool pastel colours, minimal setup with screen, lamp and digital picture frame, and a fisheye porthole offering a view of the outside world.
11. My New Office Setup by Peter Cooper
Peter Cook works across four screens in this homely office setup. A collection of books and a nice selection of art and posters add a touch of inspiration to this working environment.
12. Home Office by Jeremy Levine
This is another home office design from the portfolio of architect Jeremy Levine, a super-cool and clean layout with a great aesthetic and practical features. The sliding door opens onto a pocket courtyard with bamboo, also providing a cooling chimney effect. The clerestory window that runs around the top of the room allows changing light to fill the office as the sun moves through the sky during the day.
13. Quad-Head MacBook Air by Blake Patterson
Blake Patterson's awesome office employs four displays running from a MacBook Air. The setup usually features the iPhone 4 that was used to take this photograph of the arrangement.
14. Extreme Makeover by Sasha Wolff
The décor used in a working environment can have a positive influence on the work that takes place within and the fantastic paint job that Sasha Wolff employed in her office makeover is a great example of how interior design can brighten a room. The space invaders flying across the walls are decals from the Blik graphics studio.
15. My New View by Travis Isaacs
This handsome setup features a minimalist desktop, classic lampshade design and floor-to-ceiling windows to make the most of the sunlight and verdant scenery outside the office.
16. New Office Setup by John Athayde
Another excellent office setup that makes use of the room's windows, this time offering a cityscape view. A MacBook and Apple 30" display, speakers, phone and other office essentials complete the arrangement.
17. Office (Feb. Setup) by Jeff Wilcox
Similarly, this setup looks out on a city view, and also includes three monitors and high-fidelity sound system.
18. Man Cave Office by Yasuhiko Ito
Yasuhiko Ito's self-styled man cave office is a perfect retreat for work and creativity. The space includes his computer and desktop, inspirational dinosaur-related decorations and a piano for musical breaks from work.
19. Home Office by Sean Hobson
Sean Hobson presents his simple and elegant desktop office setup. The beautifully minimalist arrangement features two Dell displays, one attached to a Mac Mini, the other to a Dell XPS Gen4, with wireless keyboard and mouse adding to the clutter-free feel.
20. Work Space by Silverfox09
This space allows the worker to look into his garden, enjoying the view and watching his children play, while the cat relaxes on the office's filing cabinet.
21. My Work Space by Andy Wetherill
Some people like to bring toys to keep them company on their desktop. Andy Wetherill has populated his office with a multitude of playful characters, from The Simpsons to Star Wars and numerous other figurines.
22. My Office by Travis Isaacs
Careful use of light and colour can have a very positive influence in the office environment, such as we see in Travis Isaac's exquisitely designed room with its dark décor and carefully selected artwork and glassware.
23. The Laid Back Work Space by WOVOX Team
Laptops and mobile devices allow us to take our work, and our office anywhere, such as we see here in WOVOX Team's 'laid back' office on a couch and table with a relaxing candle burning and steaming cup of coffee.
24. New Work Area by Megan Ann
A great deal of thought has gone into decorating this work and office space, including the carefully chosen design elements that complete the stylishly pale colour scheme. The long workbench is divided between 'his' and 'her' ends; the available space is used for office work and art-related drawing projects.
25. Basement Office by Adam Selwood
Finally, we have an example of how to make the most of limited space to create an awesome office. Adam Selwood's basement setup is housed in an Ikea wardrobe, minus the doors, with a 24" display, and storage compartments in the keyboard area. Two lights under the keyboard subtly illuminate the space, which is both functional and comfortable, a highly inspiring piece of workspace design.
James finds himself talking more and more about office chairs because he's involved in developing and updating a British next day office stationery site. He's also a big internet and blogging enthusiast.

Zuckerberg ready to 'double down' on Facebook, prove critics wrong
AP September 13, 2012, 12:13 am TWN
SAN FRANCISCO--Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg hasn't enjoyed seeing his company's stock get pummeled on Wall Street this summer, but he is relishing the opportunity to prove his critics wrong.
"I would rather be in a cycle where people underestimate U.S. because I'd rather be underestimated," Zuckerberg said Tuesday. "I think it gives U.S. the latitude to go out and make some big bets."
Zuckerberg, 28, made his remarks before a standing-room-only audience at a tech conference in San Francisco in his first interview since Facebook Inc.'s rocky initial public offering in May.
The social networking leader's stock has lost nearly half its value since the IPO. More than US$50 billion has been lopped off Facebook's market value as the company's shares have fallen from US$38 to Tuesday's closing price of US$19.43.
No one has lost as much as Zuckerberg, who has seen the value of his Facebook holdings fall about more than US$9 billion. That while hearing more skeptics second-guess his ability to lead the company that he founded eight years ago in his Harvard University dorm room.
Since speaking during Facebook's first earnings conference call as a public company nearly seven weeks ago, Zuckerberg has remained largely out of the spotlight.
Wearing a gray T-shirt, jeans and sneakers, Zuckerberg looked at ease through his half-hour appearance. He smiled frequently and even chuckled a few times before a San Francisco audience composed largely of fellow geeks who, like him, tend to enjoy talking about computer coding and building cool products instead of discussing revenue growth and business strategies.
Yet Zuckerberg clearly was aiming many of his remarks at investors. He emphasized that Facebook cared about making money as well as pursuing his mission to make the world a "more open and connected place." He also repeated his belief that the company would figure out numerous ways to profit from the growing number of its 955 million worldwide users who visit is online hangout through mobile applications instead of Web browsers on desktop computers.
Zuckerberg said the performance of Facebook's stock "has obviously been disappointing," and will probably cause some demoralized employees to defect. But he said he hopes most workers will stay and "double down" on Facebook's future.
"I think it is really easy to for folks to underestimate how really fundamentally good mobile is for us," Zuckerberg told his interviewer, former blogger turned venture capitalist Michal Arrington, at the TechCrunch Disrupt conference.

Phone Data Collection Sure to Continue Despite Patriot Act Expiration
NEWS ANALYSIS: Just because the legislative authority for bulk collection of phone metadata officially ended as of June 1, that doesn't mean it has actually stopped, because it hasn't.The good news, if you're a civil libertarian, is that Section 215 of the Patriot Act officially expired at midnight on May 31. The bad news, if you're a civil libertarian, is that the National Security Agency isn't stopping its collection of phone data for long. If you're familiar with how things work in Washington, this shouldn't surprise you. Anyone who knows how government works already knows that something simple like a mere expiration of legal authority is little more than an inconvenience to a body like the U.S. Senate. This is especially the case when a canny old politician like Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) runs things. What's actually going on here is that late in the evening of Sunday, May 31, the Senate successfully voted for cloture, which is a parliamentary maneuver designed to end debate on a topic. In this case the debate was about the USA Freedom Act, which had previously been turned down by the same Senators a few days earlier. By closing off debate the Senate voted to move the Freedom Act ahead so that it can be voted on by the full Senate, which presumably could happen as soon as June 2. But before the Senate can vote on the USA Freedom Act, it must first deal with a stack of amendments filed by McConnell. Those amendments would give the NSA anywhere from six months to a year to wind down the phone record data collection process.
In the meantime, the intelligence community and the phone companies would get together on the processes necessary to allow phone companies to store the same data that the NSA is now collecting. Once that data is stored, the various intelligence services would be required to get a warrant before they could look at it.

Read the empowering career story of this homemaker who is trying hard to return to the workforce — but a 26-year employment gap and lack of college degree stand in her way. Also included are the suggestions and resources from the Quintessential Careers team — for this job-seeker and any other job-seeker facing a similar situation.
by KC, as told to Katharine Hansen, Ph.D.
A stay-at-home mom for 26 years, Atlanta-born "KC" just turned 50 and seeks a job. "I'm not just looking for something to do," she says. "Putting four kids through college has left us in severe financial trouble. Getting a job is a must!"
Growing up, all KC wanted to be was a mom. "That's all. Just a mom who stayed home with her children and created a good and comfortable home for my family." She's not sure why that ambition was so strong for her. "My mom worked full-time, so it wasn't from watching her. Maybe [it was] because I wished she was at home with me," KC muses.
Her ambition paid off because KC considers her family her proudest accomplishment. "When my children were growing up," KC notes, "I would ask them occasionally if they would like me to go back to work so they could have more. Their answer was always a resounding NO. They still tell me they have no regrets and wouldn't have changed a thing."
After starting her first job as a file clerk in a local hospital, KC moved on to a six-month stint in the facility's Human Resources Department while the regular employee was on maternity leave. By the time she left her hospital employment, KC had become the cashier. She then became a clerk at a worker's compensation company, later returning to healthcare work at another hospital where she was an admissions clerk. Next, KC served as a clerk in an insurance company, leaving that job after two years when her husband was transferred out of state, and she began working a variety of clerical and receptionist jobs for a temporary agency. Leaving that job after two years for the birth of her first child, KC spent the next 26 years taking care of her home and family.
The Duluth, GA, homemaker recognizes the difficulty of her current situation, though. "When you send out a resume that has a 26-year gap, you are lucky if you can even get an interview, let alone an offer." Her educational limitations also present obstacles. "The fact that I didn't go to college is killing me. At the time that I graduated from high school, it wasn't common for girls to go to college. Granted, it was getting more so, but wasn't important to my parents or to me at the time."
That's why KC's advice to others is: "Get that college degree! I wouldn't change a thing about being a stay-at-home mom, so I would never advise against that, but do something – no matter how small – to keep your skills up to date. There are so many options to telecommute these days that it would be easy to do while being a full-time mom." KC has herself looked into telecommuting, but has not found anything yet. "I have found tons of 'work at home' jobs, but they want a check from me first."
KC would still like to get a degree and has looked into doing so and discussed the prospect with her husband. "We feel that I need to get a job first, then go to school part-time. If I could find a decent-paying part-time job, I would go back now," she says.
With a college degree seemingly unattainable at the moment, KC has worked to develop her skills so she'll be ready for the workforce. "I have kept up with current technology; it's hard not to with two Georgia Tech grads in your house and two current Tech students!" she says. "I have recently taken a class on Excel and love to learn new software."
Currently, KC seeks administrative assistant, clerical, and receptionist jobs. "I have used all the Web-based job boards (CareerBuilder, HotJobs, etc)," she says. "I have also used the local newspaper and have networked with friends who know of open positions." She has also signed up with several placement agencies and temp agencies, but has received no response from any of them.
If she could do anything she wanted to, KC, an artist and seamstress, would love to own her own company. "Even working for a company helping to develop new craft products or patterns would be a dream," she says. Creativity is a cornerstone of her life. "I would love to have a job using my creativity. I always have projects going on," she says. "If I have a day where I can't be creative, I feel lost." KC feels that working at home would be wonderful. "I do custom sewing, embroidery, etc., now, but I can't make enough money doing it," she says. "Other than that, I would be happy doing just about anything other than collections and sales."
It's not for lack of trying that KC has not succeeded in finding a job that uses her creativity. "I have looked into jobs that would allow me to work in a creative environment, but anything I have found requires a degree," KC laments. "I have sent unsolicited resumes to companies in the area that would have that kind of work."
Suggestions and Resources for KC and Others in Similar Situations
We suggest that KC:
- Ensure that her resume is the best it can be and effectively showcases not only the transferable skills gained from homemaking, but also the technical skills she is learning. Be sure the resume de-emphasizes the 26-year employment gap and lack of degree. Consider investing in a professional resume writer. See our Resume and CV Resources for Job-Seekers, as well as our article, Strategic Portrayal of Transferable Job Skills is a Vital Job-Search Technique.
- Be sure to follow up all job possibilities. KC mentions signing up with temp/staffing agencies, applying for jobs advertised in the newspaper and on the Web, and sending out unsolicited resumes. She needs to make sure she is following up on all those possibilities, not just sitting back and waiting for things to happen. See our article, Follow Up All Job Leads: Don't Wait by the Phone (or Computer).
- Step up networking efforts. KC says she's networking, and that's great. But she says she's networked with friends who know of open positions. She needs to network with virtually everyone to uncover jobs that may not be advertised. A fantastic technique for her to try is informational interviewing. A subset of networking, information interviewing will provide more exposure to her desired field and more contacts for her network. She may meet an employer while informationally interviewing who would be willing to hire her. More likely, she'll gain information that will help her develop a strategy for breaking into the field. She'll discover exactly what she needs to do to get someone to hire her. Find out how to do informational interviews in our Informational Interviewing Tutorial.
- Be sure to devote sufficient time to job-hunting. Many experts suggest that the job search needs to be a full-time job. Certainly KC should devote as much time as she can to her job search.
- Don't waste too much time looking into work-at-home jobs. As KC has learned, many – if not most – of these jobs are scams. A better approach would be to get a regular job first, and then once she's established, KC could investigate a telecommuting arrangement. See our article, Making Your Case for Telecommuting: How to Convince the Boss.
- Consider obtaining a part-time volunteer position while job hunting. KC could look into unpaid jobs at her church or community organizations and build her resume, make networking contacts, polish her skills, and obtain references while looking for a paid position. See our article, Volunteering Can Open Doors to a New Career.
- Consider looking for a clerical job in a college or university so she could get tuition benefits and get her degree.
- As a first step to perhaps working for herself, KC could buy a domain name and set up a Web site with photos that show off her creative skills in custom sewing and embroidery. Maybe one of her Georgia Tech offspring could help her with the site or knows someone who could. Find some Web-publishing resources in our article Web Resources Page for Job-Seeker Web-based Resumes and see our section of Entrepreneur & Business Start-Up Tools and Resources. Another good source is Dr. Randall Hansen's article, Tips for Starting a Small-Business Website: 5 Steps to an Online Presence.
- Another possible business venture for KC might be to offer lessons to teach others her craft and needlework skills, perhaps as part of an adult/continuing-education program.
- KC could investigate teaching preschool. These jobs often don't require a degree, and KC's parenting experience certainly gives her a leg up. She might even be able to teach creative arts and crafts at the preschool level to feed her passions. Substitute teaching also sometimes doesn't require a college degree.

CMS Website Redesign
- Status Completed
- Budget $30 - $250 USD
- Total Bids 69
Project Description
I have a website on a custom CMS platform that I would like to have redesigned. The current CMS platform does not have enough functionality, and there are some technical issues with it. In addition, I don't really like the overall design and would like to have something that is more clean, easier to read and focuses on images. The website is for a cake selling business. There are currently two versions of the site - [url removed, login to view] which is the live site, and [url removed, login to view] which was built on Wix.com. The Wix version is a little better, but I would rather the site be on a CMS.
If you are going to bid on this project, please explain to me the following:

Season 2 of the Overtime podcast is here! Listen to the first episode with Meg Robichaud now.
Continued mark exploration...
Still a solid fan of the V1 concept (and a few variations that I'm working with) but I'm also playing with some ideas incorporating the monogram that may be more readily acessible from conceptual standpoint... (Even though I haven't alluded to it specifically) In any case, revisiting the somewhat obvious 'LD' monogram, but hopefully utilizing it in a slightly less confusing / more unique application.

Jobless Claims in U.S. Dropped More Than Forecast Last WeekLorraine Woellert
Fewer Americans than forecast filed applications for unemployment benefits last week, a sign the labor market continues to gain traction.
Jobless claims fell 26,000 to 319,000 in the week ended May 3 from a revised 345,000 in the prior period, the Labor Department reported today in Washington. The median forecast of 52 economists surveyed by Bloomberg called for a decrease to 325,000.
Fewer layoffs set the stage for bigger gains in employment and wages. While payrolls rebounded in April after a weather-induced soft patch earlier in the year, many companies are proceeding with caution while they wait for a sustained pickup in consumer spending, which accounts for about 70 percent of the economy.
"Claims are drifting lower on a longer-trend basis," said Jacob Oubina, a senior U.S. economist at RBC Capital Markets LLC in New York, whose forecast for 320,000 filings was among the closest in the Bloomberg survey. "I think hiring will creep slightly higher."
Stock-index futures held earlier losses after the report. The contract on the Standard & Poor's 500 Index maturing in June fell 0.3 percent to 1,869 at 8:46 a.m. in New York as technology stocks declined for a third day and investors weighed corporate earnings.
There were no states estimated last week and there was nothing unusual in the data, a Labor Department spokesman said as the figures were released to the press.
Survey Results
Economists' estimates in the Bloomberg survey ranged from 310,000 to 343,000. The prior week's claims were originally reported at 344,000.
The four-week average of claims, a less-volatile measure than the weekly figure, climbed to 324,750 from 320,250 the week before.
The claims data have see-sawed since early April as the government had trouble adjusting the figures for the Easter holiday and spring recess at schools that occur at different times from year to year. Most of that fluctuation is now probably over, the Labor Department spokesman said.
The number of people continuing to collect benefits dropped by 76,000 to 2.69 million in the week ended April 26.
The unemployment rate among people eligible for benefits fell to 2 percent in the week ended April 26 from 2.1 percent the prior week, today's report showed.
Cutting Staff
Some companies continue to shed staff. To boost efficiency, Caterpillar said it will cut 380 full-time and 130 temporary jobs at a marine-engine plant in Fountain Inn, South Carolina. The company, based in Peoria, Illinois, also will close a machinery factory in Pearisburg, Virginia, affecting 50 employees.
Payrolls at financial services firms, too, are shrinking as companies cope with a soft housing market and low interest rates. Boston-based State Street Corp. this year will eliminate 400 positions, bringing total layoffs to 3,300 since November 2010.
"We're still in a constrained environment and we're looking at expenses everywhere," Chief Executive Officer Joseph Hooley said in an April interview.
Employers added 288,000 jobs last month, the biggest increase in payrolls since January 2012, the Labor Department reported last week. That wasn't enough to draw people into the labor force, however, and the share of the working-age population employed or seeking a job fell to 62.8 percent, matching the lowest since March 1978.
Too many people are settling for part-time work, Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen told the congressional Joint Economic Committee.
"While conditions in the labor market have improved appreciably, they are still far from satisfactory," Yellen said yesterday. "Most measures of labor compensation have been rising slowly -- another signal that a substantial amount of slack remains in the labor market."

We are here solely for the women to help and support her during the most amazing 9 nine months and to help settle anxieties.

It has been a roller-coaster season for the St. Hubert soccer squad, but regardless of the scoreboard, the Bambies are staying strong.
"Kevin is a great leader… we rely on him. We let him move and everybody else kind of follows. He's our team captain. He's ranked in the top of his class. He's a great example of a student athlete." — Father Judge coach John Dunlop, referring to Kevin Pohl.
Players on the Holy Family volleyball team represent a number of hometowns. They've journeyed far and wide to be part of the Tigers' winning program.
While playing for Manor College last year, Brittany Palmer and her team did not win one game. Now she's enjoying that winning feeling at Penn State Abington.
Abraham Lincoln senior Marty McFarland scored three touchdowns and grabbed an interception on Friday afternoon — by far his best performance of the season.
After surviving Haiti's earthquake in 2010, Richard Laurent moved to Philadelphia. He's a straight-A student at Northeast High School and a starter on the Vikings' varsity soccer squad.
"Jeff has gotten better every year… He comes out here and plays hard. He's a smart student and a hard-working athlete." —Frankford boss Rob Shelton speaks highly of senior Jeff Marc.
Senior quarterback Stephane Smith is the first four-year varsity starter in Samuel Fels football history.
The lovely ladies of Northeast Philadelphia have once again stormed the soccer field, and it looks like any one of the four local squads could be solid contenders for the championship this season.
"It's bad for all the teams, the teachers and students. We're all devastated. This is a big loss for Northeast." —NEHS athletic director Chris Riley

======================================== OLD WEAPONS SKINS FOR CURRENT ZOMBIE PANIC! SOURCE VERSION 2 ======================================== Everything was made by the ZPS Dev Team except : - This pack by Shepard (also known as Shepard62FR, Shepard62700FR) - AK-47, M4 and IED 1.4 replica by TheRar1000 - High Quality-ish Gloves by DrDeanDarko You don't like ZPS's new weapons style ? You would like to have the good weapons from the earlier ZPS's versions ? Well this pack is for you ! This pack replaces all ZPS's new weapons by the old one from the earlier version. I still have a copy of ZPS v1.25b and decided to make a pack for those who like the way that ZPS's weapons looked in the past. All weapons are replaced except some melee weapons (I searched for a download link for the v1.4 version) Be careful, the animations from the "old" ZPS does not match the timing of the "new" ZPS (an exemple, in the "new" ZPS, the Remington 870 fire faster than the old one), so if you don't care about this you can download, install and use. But if you care about that, I don't recommand you to install, download and use (unless you can fix the problem by editing the models, anims...) If anyone upload/PM me the materials, sounds and models of missing weapons that aren't included in this pack, I give him a cookie =) Because the models were not edited, the only hands you will see will be Eugene's old arms, if you wish to have Marcus, Jessica and the Punker's hands on the old models, a modeler has to decompile a viewmodel weapon from the "new" ZPS and rig the hands into the old weapon's skeleton. Don't ask me to do that because I don't know to model, anim, rig and so on. I'm just a mapper. ============================== INSTALLATION ============================== NOTE : If you already have ZPS as a mod (that allow to use custom skins), go directly to step 10, the first 9 steps are meant for people who don't have ZPS as a mod and can't install skins (you will need about 2Gb of hard drive space to extract ZPS files). 1) Download GCFScape ( http://nemesis.thewavelength.net/index.php?p=26 ). 2) Install GCFScape. 3) Open with GCFScape the "zps client.gcf" file located in this folder : "\SteamApps". 4) Right click on the "zps" folder in GCFScape and select "Extract". 5) The directory where GCFScape have to extract ZPS's files must match this one : "\SteamApps\SourceMods". 6) Open with Notepad (or your favorite text editor) the "GameInfo.txt" located in this folder : "\SteamApps\SourceMods\zps". 7) Change the value of "game" (third line) (for exemple : "ZPS (Custom Edition)"). 8) Save the changes. 9) Restart Steam (if it was running), you should now be able to see your "edited" version of ZPS in your game list. 10) Extract the skins in this folder : "\SteamApps\SourceMods\zps". 11) If you wish to use DrDeanDarko's High Quality-ish Gloves, extract the "materials" folder in your "zps" folder. 12) Enjoy!
