Our hearts hurts, sometimes very badly, when we experience a loss. Whether we experience loss through death (human or pet), sickness, divorce or ending of a relationship, employment termination, a move, or other circumstances – it can cut like a knife.

Involvement in music addresses trauma in two ways: music reaches us on an emotional level to help with coping, as well as on a neurological level to address and heal areas of the brain that are affected when trauma or loss are experienced. Our music therapists work with each client using musical elements like songwriting, processing, and guided imagery to help clients find their own voice and learn new coping skills to help manage trauma of any severity.

Grief, sadness, occurs for many reasons, and is met with empathy and compassion in my practice. We grieve for death of a loved one; loss of a relationship; family, a marriage; a home; loss of a job; a friend. In short, there are as many forms of grief as there are reasons for it. There is no set time to grieve, some need more time to process through than others. Extended or complicated grief can interfere with relationships, employment, family. It can develop into a very deep melancholy or sadness and even depression. Grief/loss can create anxiety and stress. Together we'll find the best way for you to survive, thrive and overcome your grief and live the life you truly want.

Grief and loss are powerful emotions that can cause daily emotional pain and negative thinking. Grief and loss can inhibit people from taking action and getting what they want out of life. Grief and loss can be short term due to a death, divorce, or loss of a job, friendship, etc. Sometimes these feelings are chronic and began in childhood due to growing up in a dysfunctional family. In Psychotherapy we work on effective tools to help people mourn, let go of the pain and find ways to move on in their lives.

Simply put, Alan Kelchner (Ph.D. '03) has done it all when it comes to the Graduate Theological Union: student, alumnus, professor, trustee, and now executive staff, serving as the interim Vice President for Advancement.
I look at my life and realize how incredible it is to find myself at the GTU in Berkeley. I am an American citizen, born and raised in Omaha, Nebraska, but my abuelita (grandmother) is quick to remind me, "Mexican comes before American. You are Mexican-American and do not forget it."
The world is literally at our fingertips. Pull out your smart phone <tap tap tap> and you can Google huge libraries of information, see the world thanks to YouTube, and even converse via discussions boards, Facebook, Skype, and text. This ability to access information has revolutionized our culture, particularly how we view education.
Jody Passanisi, a.k.a. Jacqueline Pearce, (M.A. '05) with her colleague Shara Peters astutely observes in a post at Scientific American, "[E]ducated people were those who knew a great deal of information about one or many subjects...In this 'Age of Information,' access to facts and data is no longer available only to the educated elite...So, as a society, what is an 'educated person'?"
Articulating an answer to that query is difficult, but most educators agree that the Digital Revolution has changed the way that students learn and how we live everyday. So it's no surprise that more conversations and alterations are taking place to incorporate technology as a key component in the classroom.
The handwriting is on the wall. As Americans distance themselves from the label of Christian, preferring "spiritual" or no affiliation, attendance continues to slip across mainline denominations. Schools for ministerial formation are struggling with lower enrollments and less denominational financial support. The composition of the Christian Church is changing and the seminaries must change with it.
After graduating with my M.Div. from American Baptist Seminary of the West in 1975, I ministered at Grace Baptist Church of San Jose for thirteen years, ten of them as the Senior Pastor.
For nearly 14 years I've had a foot in the church and a foot in academia.
I had planned to pursue a career in the performing arts, majoring in musical theatre or dance in college. A conversion experience in a Christian church in my late teens shifted my plans for life and career. Fortunately, wonderful religion professors quickly taught me that my calling in ministry can coincide with my gifts in the arts and my deep interest in feminism. As a college freshman, I served as a youth minister.
I often describe my calling as a stool. The seat is social justice and the three legs are the church, the academy, and the arts.
Although I am new to the Office of the President at the Graduate Theological Union, I have worked on behalf of the seminaries of the GTU consortium for thirteen years in a variety of roles as fund-raiser, academic dean, and president. Students and faculty have stated that a primal value for studying and teaching at the GTU has been the access to multiple institutions embodying such rich and diverse religious traditions. Individual institutions are valuable, but the whole, creatively interacting, is uniquely valuable. As president, I feel a deep commitment to the health and sustainability of each part as well as the whole union.

Could some new Bruce Springsteen music be on the way?
Listen to Bruce Springsteen on iHeartRadio
Something new from Bruce Springsteen appears to be slated for release next week.
A post on his website, BruceSpringsteen.net, says "Coming November 25th" above an image of The Boss that resembles a record sleeve for "Bruce Springsteen High Hopes."
In addition, the website for Sony Music Germany as well as the Danish music service WiMP have "High Hopes" listed as a new Springsteen single arriving next Monday.
However, a rep for the rocker tells "Rolling Stone" the website information is "not correct."
"High Hopes" isn't a Springsteen original - or even a new song for him. Tom Scott McConnell wrote and recorded the track with his group the Havalinas more than 20 years ago. Springsteen and the E Street Band covered it for their 1996 EP "Blood Brothers." But Springsteen performed the song during the Australian leg of his "Wrecking Ball" tour earlier this year.

LONDON (Reuters) - European regulators recommended against approval of Sanofi and Isis Pharmaceutical's Kynamro drug for treatment of a rare genetic disorder that causes unusually high cholesterol.
The European Medicines Agency said it was concerned about the medicine's safety, noting that a high proportion of patients stopped taking it within two years, mainly due to side effects such as flu-like symptoms, injection site reactions and liver toxicity.
The European rebuff contrasts with a green light for the drug, known generically as mipomersen, by a U.S. advisory panel in October.
Sanofi's Genzyme unit said it was disappointed by the decision and planned to request a re-examination.
A Sanofi spokeswoman said the company expected feedback from the regulator in the second quarter of 2013.
Isis founder and Chief Executive Stanley Crooke said on a conference call with analysts he was still optimistic on securing approvals in both the United States and Europe.
"Even though I cannot address the specific concerns of the (EU) committee ... I can say that each issue raised by the (committee) was thoroughly reviewed by the FDA," Crooke said. "We do not believe that today's opinion should have a negative impact elsewhere."
At 1514 GMT Sanofi shares were trading 0.1 percent lower at 71.72 euros, in line with the CAC 40 index, while Isis was up 0.3 percent at $9.87 in New York.
California-based Isis is entitled to 30 percent of total sales of Kynamro once the drug reaches the market, rising to 50 percent for sales over $2 billion.

Brevard, N.C. - The Brevard College baseball team took both games of a doubleheader Saturday against North Greenville, winning 13-4 and 7-6 at Ashmore Field. The Tornados move to 10-26 with the wins, while the Crusaders fall to 8-33.
Game One - Brevard 13, North Greenville 4 (7 inn.)
Shane Galloway pitched a complete game for the victory and all nine Tornado position players tallied at least one base hit in Brevard's most lopsided win of the season. Brice Warner, Jason Merrill and Kellen Moman all hit home runs for Brevard.
Galloway (3-5; Rosman, N.C.) allowed all four runs, scattering 12 hits while striking out four. Chad Drosieko (2-4; Easley, S.C.) started and took the loss, allowing six runs in just 2/3 of an inning of work.
The Tornados came out with bats blazing, scoring six times in the opening frame. After Dosieko struck out the first two batters of the game, nine straight Brevard sluggers reached base. Included in the barrage was an RBI double from Jackie Corn (Hendersonville, N.C.), a run scoring single from Stephen Mullis (Charlotte, N.C.), back-to-back homers from Merrill (Hendersonville, S.C.) and Moman (Greenville, S.C.), with Merrill's being a two-run shot, and an RBI single from Spencer Linn (Fletcher, N.C.).
Another Tornado scored in the 2nd, when Merrill singled home Matthew Pruitt (Hendersonville, N.C.) to push the lead to a touchdown.
After the Crusaders tightened the game with three runs in the 4th, Brevard blew it open with five markers in the 5th. Corn and Merrill each came through with a two-run single, and Josh Miller (Hendersonville, N.C.) brought home a run with a single of his own to make the score 12-3.
The final Tornado run came in the 6th, when Warner (Clover, N.C.) belted a solo home run, his 2nd of the year.
Game Two - Brevard 7, North Greenville 6 (7 inn.)
In contrast to the first game, which was a blowout, the finale was a tight affair that was not settled until Luke Smithson got Dylan Fulk (Mt. Pleasant, N.C.) to ground into a game-ending fielder's choice with two on in the 7th.
Jacob White (1-3; Elkin, N.C.) pitched two innings of relief to pick up the victory, while Smithson (Mills River, N.C.) struck out a pair in the 7th en route to his second save of the season. Drew Provence (0-1; Fayetteville, Ga.) took the loss, allowing three runs in two relief innings.
Brevard again took a lead in the 1st, this time with two runs. A two-RBI double from Corn put the Tornados on top by a deuce.
Brevard doubled the lead in the 2nd inning with two more runs. Warner came through with a sac fly and Linn scored another win an RBI single to make the score 4-0.
The Crusader rallied with two runs in the bottom half of the frame on a two-run single from Randy Stegall (Pauline, S.C.) and tied the game with two more in the fourth, as Dayton Lupton (Milner, Ga.) stroked a two-run double off of Brevard starter Seth Laughter (Fletcher, N.C.).
Todd Anderson's team took the lead for good with three runs in the 6th. Linn came up with his third RBI single of the day, and the big blow came three batters later when Warner and Linn each scored an a fielding error by Crusader 2nd baseman Anthony Foulk (Genoa, Ill.), putting the good guys up, 7-4.
The Crusaders made things interesting with two-run homer from Lupton in the 6th, but the Smithson and the Tornados turned North Greenville away for good with clutch pitching in the final inning.
For the day, Corn was 4-7 with 5 RBIs and Merrill was 4-9 with 5 RBIs.
The Tornados are back at Gil Coan Field Tuesday, when they play a 1 p.m. doubleheader against Virginia Intermont. North Greenville plays a 4 p.m. doubleheader at Tusculum on Tuesday.

MILPITAS, CA -- Zilog, a producer of microcontrollers, reports that its Z8 chip has been selected by Coin Mechanisms Inc. (Glendale Heights, IL) for its new spinning three-dimensional display. Called POV (for Persistence of Vision), the cylindrical display uses a rapidly rotating vertical array of LEDs to create a brilliantly colored 3D image of logotypes, advertisements, special announcements and similar point-of-sale messages.
Zilog said that its Z8 Encore microcontroller unit was chosen for Coin Mechanisms' POV display because its direct register-to-register architecture streamlines overhead in executing code and decreases the amount of program memory required. These characteristics allow the controller to switch the individual light-emitting diodes on and off very quickly, which is essential to maintaining the illusion of a transparent three-dimensional solid. The POV display can attain a frame rate of 38 FPS for seamless animations and video clips (the professional motion picture standard is 24 FPS).
The spinning display, rotated by a quiet brushless DC motor, includes two columns of 96 LEDs. As it rotates, the individual diodes are turned on and off to create a virtual array 384 pixels around, with an available spectrum of 512 colors (9 bits) and an effective screen resolution of 96 x 192 pixels. The image is 5.75" high x 9.5" in diameter (or 30" in circumference), and may be viewed from 360° around it. Graphics and text can scroll left or right, at variable speed, and a number of special effects may be added.
Coin Mechanisms' LED POV sign is mounted in a cylindrical housing 14" high x 12.25" in diameter, and is primarily designed for use as an attention-getting topper. Its onboard memory can store up to 100 images, and new content can be downloaded over a serial interface or 2.4-GHz. wireless transmission. Download time is six seconds per image. The sign also is equipped with a real-time clock/calendar. Time and/or date can be displayed, and the clock also may be used to turn the display on or off at preset times. It runs on 120/240 VAC.
Coin Mechanisms, founded in 1968, has expanded from a developer and manufacturer of high-quality payment systems to a fully integrated manufacturing organization that supplies products to the vending, amusement, kiddie ride, redemption, video lottery, carwash, laundry and other self-service businesses. It maintains a website at www.coinmech.com.
A video of the POV sign can be found on YouTube.
Zilog, which helped pioneer microprocessor design, development and production in the 1970s, now is a wholly owned subsidiary of Ixys Corp. and a supplier of application-specific "system-on-chip" (SoC) solutions for industrial and consumer markets. It offers a range of single board computers, application-specific software stacks and development tools for embedded-systems design.
Ixys provides a diversified base of products addressing worldwide needs for power control, electrical efficiency, telecommunications and electronic displays.

Joanne - from N. Ridgeville, OH
A heating core is an aluminum tube (it looks very much like the center tube of a tube pan) which, when placed in the center of a large baking pan, distributes the heat evenly as the cake bakes. We recommend using a heating core when baking cake layers larger than 10 inches in diameter.
To use, spray or grease the inside and outside of the core, fill half to two-thirds full with batter and place in the center of the batter-filled baking pan. Then bake according to recipe instructions. After baking, allow the cake to cool in the pan 10-15 minutes. Remove the heating core; then remove the cake from the pan. Take the cake out of the heating core and insert back into the big cake. Allow the cake to cool completely, then decorate!

America's authors stand with libraries
Our nation's authors and libraries have a special relationship. Authors are readers, and many of us began our love affair with reading in our local libraries. We have relied on libraries to grow our craft, help us check our facts, and provide access to a diverse cultural record. Library lending encourages people of all ages to experiment and sample new authors, topics, and genres—stimulating the market for books. Libraries ensure access to information for all, making our democratic ideals a reality.
Just as many of us found our avocation in the "stacks," we hope others will now find our work among these treasured tales on libraries' physical and virtual bookshelves. Unfortunately, the transition from print to digital formats is disrupting our valued relationship with libraries and readers.
As a result, reader access to our work through libraries is dramatically restricted. Many ebooks are not available to most libraries at any price. When allowed by publishers to purchase them, the library price is often 150–500% more than the consumer price—forcing libraries to purchase fewer copies for readers. These restrictions hurt discovery, reading choice, literacy and the simple joy of reading. Ebook restrictions severely limit new authors from finding audiences and eager readers from finding new content. Writers, readers and librarians cannot afford to have this critical situation continue.
Literature and knowledge—in all their forms—are essential. Access to them through libraries must not be denied. We believe:
- All published works must be available for libraries to purchase and lend to library users.
- Access to and use of ebooks must equitably balance the rights and privileges of readers, authors, and publishers.
- Digital content must be accessible to all people, regardless of physical or reading disabilities.
- Pricing models must be reasonable and flexible.
- Library patrons must be able to access digital content on the device of their choosing.
- Reading records must remain private in the Digital Age.
Together, the American Library Association and authors call for meaningful change and creative solutions that will serve readers who rightfully expect at least the same access to ebooks as they have to printed books in our nation's libraries.

David Chandler on Visibility 9-11
Talks About His New DVD '9/11 Analysis' and Rationalizes the Pentagon Debate
January 16, 2011
Show notes and interview by: John Bursill
This timely and important Podcast is a MUST listen!
Listen here: http://visibility911.com/blog/?p=1874
David, who describes himself as a "pacifist", talks in great depth about his journey on the campaign for 9/11 Truth and Justice to which he is passionately dedicated. Many of you may be aware it was David who is credited with getting NIST to admit WTC Building 7 fell at a an acceleration consistent with free-fall due to gravity, which I and many others view as the single most powerful debating tool for us as 9/11 Truth advocates! David disputes he is solely responsible for this and says that Jones, Ryan and others were central to this achievement but it was his question that drew the answer in the end so it seems. David also talks about the highly political timing and nature of the NIST Building 7 report.
The views expressed in this article are the sole responsibility of the author, who is solely responsible for its content, and do not necessarily reflect those of 911Truth.org. 911Truth.org will not be responsible or liable for any inaccurate or incorrect statements contained in this article.

Designed for city winters, the Patera is elegant, sophisticated and technically advanced. Lofty, light 750 fill power European goose down and Coreloft™ synthetic insulation combine for warmth and comfort. A supple P75d GORE-TEX® fabric with 2L technology outer shell provides complete protection from wind, snow and rain. A low profile insulated hood provides warmth and full coverage protection. An internal draft collar helps seal in heat, shaped cuffs cover the hands, and wrist gaskets add extra protection against cold.
Using Down Contour Construction™ and Down Composite Mapping™ technologies, Arc'teryx designers place specific insulations where they provide the greatest benefit. 750 fill power European Goose down lines the core and sleeves where loft is most needed. Because it retains warmth when wet, Coreloft™ synthetic insulation is used at the hem, collar, sleeves and under the arms, all areas prone to contact with moisture. The strategic placement of this insulation also reduces bulk, giving the Patera a streamlined look that belies its exceptional warmth.
Features and fabric show the intention behind the Patera. With urban environments in mind, the Arc'teryx design team chose a GORE-TEX® fabric that has a subtle textured surface that provides a soft natural feel and modern look without sacrificing weather protection. Discreet hand pockets keep small items accessible, and an internal security pocket safely holds a smartphone, wallet or passport. Freedom of movement is built in with gussets under the arm and articulation in the sleeves, and the women's specific design puts a focus on optimal performance, comfort and fit.

Post subject: Neglect/Poor Evaluation of the FO since the last playoff win
There are 3 parts to a football team: O, D, and ST. For this discussion the 3 parts are offense, defense, and QB.
Since Montana left we have made the playoffs 5 times, 4 times we have hosted, and 3 times we were 13-3, yet we haven't won a game (I partly fault the "bye" playoff system, but this makes our problem more glaring and hopefully more likely to get fixed). We have held teams to 10 and 14 points and lost and scored 31 points and lost...all at Arrowhead. We didn't play any of those games with the better QB.
We need a GM who will make it a priority to:
1. Properly evaluate and get a franchise QB
2. maintain a high caliber defense
3. fill in the rest of the offense
...in that order, as it's not always possible to be good in every aspect. Since Joe left our GM's have failed to field even one team that was ranked in the top half of the league in offense, defense, as well as a top half of the league QB. 05 comes close...QB and offense were givens, but the D was 25th in total D and 16th in scoring D, probly because they forced 31 turnovers...but this team, while deserving, didn't even make the playoffs.
So, Joe retires in '94, the D is fine. We clearly need a QB and then some offensive playmakers. Bono was already the backup (McCarthy was the QB coach). At first take, maybe you don't blame Carl, he had success with the last 49er QB and there were no QB's at their spot in the draft. Rich Gannon was brought in as the backup who had some success starting in Minnesota. They draft Jenkins and Vanover.
So they go 13-3 with Bono as a game manager, but lose to an underwhelming Colts team 10-7. Bono throws 3 picks, one season was fine, but he's old and clearly not the answer. Not much at QB in the draft and they go Defense getting Woods, Tongue, Browning, and Edwards....and Joe Horn. That's fine since in '94 they drafted Hill, Bennett, Dawson, and Penn with their 1st 4 picks...those guys just didn't turn out very good....although I woulda liked to see a WR in one of the 1st two instead of the last two.
They move ahead with Bono and with a sputtering offense fail to make the playoffs at 9-7. So Carl makes some moves drafting Gonzalez and Lockett, acquiring Rison and...Elvis. Why? Gannon was on the roster and had looked good in a few starts and had success starting in the past. Grbac was an 8th round pick of the 49ers who was coming off an 8 TD 10 INT season as a backup. He could be a good passer, but had ZERO intangibles. Why not give Gannon a chance?
Of course we all know what happened from there, they rode Grbac thru 2000 and let Gannon walk to the Raiders to become a star in '99. This isn't exactly neglect, but it's poor evaluation as well as inability/indifference to trade up in the draft.
Skip ahead to Vermeil in 2001, the Chiefs were coming off a strong offensive season while being below average on D. Grbac signed with Bal in FA, so they needed QB, a feature RB, and defense. Signing Holmes and Green was a great start, now they needed some D in the draft. They had no 1st or 2nd round picks, but nabbed Eric Downing and Monty Beisel. Vermeils 1st year they struggled at 6-10...the defense was bad while the offense was pretty good, just turnover prone. Peterson went D with Sims, Eddie Freeman, and Fujita....the poor drafting continues but atleast he's picking the right side of the ball.
The offense explodes to become the best in the league in '02 with fewer TO's and the addition of Roaf, but the D is near the bottom. Priest was injured the final two games and his status was uncertain. So along with some defense at the top, you probly wanna take a RB in the 4th or 5th just in case. Instead we trade down and take LJ
CB was our weakest spot, Nmadi Asomugha went a few spots after LJ to Oak.
During these next few years of offensive brilliance, the trend continued with guys like Omaar Easy, Kris Wilson, Sami Parker, Colquitt in rd 3, Craphonso Thorpe being taken fairly high in the draft when we just needed D, D, and more D. Larry Foote, Darnell Dockett, Nathan Vasher, Kerry Rhodes, and Trent Cole are defensive guys taken soon after those 4 players. Peterson had shown he's not afraid to take all defense as he had in '96 when they were already good. It didn't help drafting Junior Saavi.
Obviously we wouldn't have drafted all these guys, but a defense like this in '05 was possible:
Why the neglect? Soon, we were a team with holes all over and that's when we started rebuilding the roster with the '07 and '08 drafts. Which brought us Pioli in '09 and his neglect of QB. When will it end?
Obviously you can't hit on every pick and Carl had a pretty bad stretch in the early 2000s, but you can certainly fault him for the positions he drafted and his evaluation of the QB position with Gannon on the roster. Pioli's neglect/QB evaluation troubles are well documented. It's just so irritating to have GM's who get rid of guys like Gannon/Thigpen at the first hint of them having success for retreads from highly successful franchises...who by the way are not successful because they trade for other teams backups. And for crying out loud, when your offense is ranked 1st and your defense is ranked last, use some common sense and draft D in the 1st 4 rounds until you're atleast respectable.

This probly isn't a "discussion" type thread, but with us needing a new GM and all the failings we've seen, I wanted to go back and look at the history of addressing needs and put down my thots along the way....so that's all it really is.

Bronson beat Chiefland in the Indians' house, 63-49; but for a late run and some clutch free throws, it might have been a lot tighter.
"I was surprised by how quickly they got to the basket on us," said Eagles' head coach Kelly Beckham. "We really had to tighten up our defense."
Host Chiefland put its best foot forward by taking the first possession in for a basket. Tommy Sheffield rebounded Eugene Carter to start the Indians on an early lead.

New research from Johnson's Glen Dowell examines how companies led by MBAs and lawyers respond differently to stakeholder and regulatory pressures. Among their findings: firms led by MBAs are more likely to disclose greenhouse gas emissions than firms led by CEOs with other educational backgrounds, while those led by lawyers are significantly less likely to disclose.
One of the most pressing issues in business and environmental research is developing a better understanding of why firms respond differently to pressure from stakeholders, such as investors, NGOs, and consumers. A forthcoming article by Glen Dowell, assistant professor of management and organizations at the Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management at Cornell University, sheds light on this issue. "Difference in Degrees: CEO Characteristics and Firm Responses to Pressures for Disclosure," co-authored with Johnson doctoral student Ben Lewis and Judith Walls of Concordia University, explores the relationship between the attributes of the CEO and firms' degree of environmental disclosure following stakeholder pressure.
Educational background is one of the most influential and lasting CEO characteristics, the authors write. This new research focuses specifically on two educational categories—the MBA and legal education. While prior research has often characterized MBAs as being overly conservative, Lewis, Walls, and Dowell suggest that MBAs are both more adept in strategic decision-making than those without an MBA and are more likely to see requests by key stakeholders as opportunities to increase the firm's value. On the other hand, CEO's with a legal degree act in a more conservative fashion, and therefore are less responsive to external pressures to disclose.
Consistent with this hypothesis, they find that following pressure from shareholders, firms led by MBAs are more likely to disclose greenhouse gas emissions than firms led by CEOs with other educational backgrounds, while those led by lawyers are significantly less likely to disclose. With firms subject to growing demands for transparency in their financial and social performance, these findings help to increase understanding of the factors that increase firms' likelihood of responding to such demands.
Dowell studies the interaction of firms with their natural, institutional, and competitive environments. His principle interest lies in uncovering sources of performance and survival differences among firms, and his research focuses on environmental performance.

Fractured Lavas Suggest Floods on Mars
U.S. Geological Survey Release
First Observation of Columnar Jointing on Mars
This image from the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) on NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter shows an exposure of layered rock that exhibits a type of fracturing -- called columnar jointing -- that results when cooling lava contracts.
The observation is cited in a report, "
Discovery of Columnar Jointing on Mars
," in the February 2009 issue of the journal Geology. The authors propose that flooding by water was likely what caused a quick cooling of lava to result in this jointing.
The image, taken Oct. 31, 2007, shows a portion of an unnamed crater 16 kilometers (10 miles) in diameter and centered at 21.52 degrees north latitude, 184.35 degrees north longitude. Shown here is a section about one kilometer (0.6 mile) wide from the image catalogued by the HiRISE team as
. The column-forming fractures resemble textures common on Earth in locations such as the Colombia River Basalt Group and in the Colorado Plateau.

It was into these palaces of privilege that Jen and Gwyn seemed to disappear barely moments after their red-carpet strolls.
The absurdly successful Gwyn Barry is a hilarious take on middlebrow, narcissistic celebrity authors.
"I do say so," shouted Gwyn, who had hard work to make himself heard above the steam.
Did n't you hear what Mrs. Gwyn said at dinner about the sun?
I thought Mr. Johnson was Gwyn to give me some gold too, so I could buy Roxy, but yer's all he give me.
Yes, I did," cried Gwyn; "and he as good as said it was all nonsense.
Gwyn Pendarve opened his eyes, feeling sore and in grievous pain.
Gwyn stared at him as if he had heard him speak, but did not quite comprehend what he said.
"All right, mother, I will," said Gwyn; and his face brightened up once more.
Captain Hardock got talking to me and Gwyn about it, and Gwyn told his father.

Hi Z,
I can only speak from my limited experience, but I just recently purchased the 51NH model and it worked beautifully for me. OoB support for everything BT5r2 can do. I chose this particular one because it is the only ALFA I could find which was listed as providing a 350Mb connection in the N spectrum. While there are devices which mention that they can provide a 2000mW signal, I really don't see the point. Max power for any AP is 1000mW which is what the 51NH provides. Highly recommended!

Denys Cowan's Missing Art Has Been Found
Denys Cowan's missing art is back where it belongs.
Last month it was revealed that Milestone co-founders Michael Davis and Cowan had shipped 28 pages of original art by Cowan to the Geppi Entertainment Museum in Baltimore, to be included in the "Milestones: African Americans In Comics, Pop Culture and Beyond" exhibit opening in December. But when the package arrived, 27 pages were missing, and it was the belief of many, most notably Davis, that the art had been stolen. But Cowan has announced that all 28 pages have now been returned to him, though some are not in the condition they were in when they were sent out.

Of Indiana's original 20 million acres of forest, fewer than 2,000 acres of old-growth forests remain intact. Most of the sites that remain are now protected as nature preserves, and many have been selected as National Natural Landmarks.
The first thing you notice when you enter an old-growth woods is the sheer size of the trees. Giant hardwoods 3 and 4 feet across at the base soar more than 100 feet to the canopy above. The oldest trees are more than 250 years in age; many of Indiana's old growth oaks were producing acorns long before the American Revolution.
Beneath the canopy, multiple layers of vegetation mark the descent to the forest floor. At 50 feet, younger trees wait in the shade of their parents for the openings that will allow them to attain canopy stature. Understory species such as dogwood, redbud and ironwood form a third layer of green at 20 to 30 feet. Lower still are the shrubs and herbs which occupy the forest floor.
Hollow trunks and tree holes in these woods provide habitat for squirrels, raccoons, bats, wood ducks, woodpeckers and a myriad of other birds and mammals. Dead trees and snags remain standing until a windstorm or other disturbance sends them crashing to the ground.
Far from being a waste of wood, however, these fallen trunks now enter a new stage of the natural cycle. Each log becomes its own mini-ecosystem, complete with a teeming array of termites, ants, beetles, centipedes, millipedes and other invertebrates.
These in turn become food for salamanders, shrews, mice and other denizen of the forest floor. The rotting wood is further broken down by fungi and bacteria. The wood is gradually converted to humus, replenishing the soil and completing the natural nutrient cycle.
Visit our List of Nature Preserves page to discover Indiana's dedicated Nature Preserves protecting old growth forest communities. A sample of these include:
A generation ago ecologists J.E. Potzger and Ray Friesner of Butler University described Indiana's old-growth forests as "...monuments representative of the once massive eastern deciduous forest, to which generations of today and tomorrow might make their pilgrimage, to see in impressive miniature what pioneers of four score years tell us about the forest primeval which towered over the cabins of their boyhood days." These old-growth forests are precious in ways that cannot be measured.

GSA Makes Major Award for Small Business
March 20, 2007
Contact: Diane Merriett (202) 501-1231
Washington, DC – GSA announced March 1 that Catapult Technology Ltd. of Bethesda, Maryland was the winner of a GSA IT Infrastructure Technology Global Operations (GITGO) task order worth at least $200 million. Catapult's primary job will be to consolidate GSA's IT infrastructure services.
The U.S. General Services Administration's award of a $200 million contract to an 8(a) service-disabled veteran owned information technology and consulting firm proves small businesses can win large government jobs, and more, that it will serve as inspiration for other small firms and save taxpayers at least $15 million a year, Administrator Lurita Doan said today.
"I disagree with the critics who say small businesses can't handle large and complex procurements," Administrator Doan said. "The truth is that small companies are ready and able to take on bigger challenges."
GSA's new initiative to consolidate all contracts for desktop computing, networking, messaging and other services under the 8(a) Government-wide Acquisition Contract (GWAC) aligns with Administrator Doan's broader goal to impose stricter fiscal discipline at GSA and achieve a higher return on taxpayer dollars.
The GITGO initiative will:
- Combine 40 disparate contracts into one consolidated contract;
- Enhance efficiency by aligning functions now performed by multiple organizations and locations;
- Establish consistent IT infrastructure levels of service throughout GSA;
- Establish a consolidated helpdesk for all IT infrastructure issues;
- Improve management controls over funding for IT infrastructure, as funding will be consistently documented and analyzed; and
- Simplify enterprise efforts such as implementing new software versions, responding to various security issues, and maintaining asset inventories.
"This initiative will help GSA continue to improve the cost effectiveness, security, and reliability of our shared information technology infrastructure," said Michael Carleton, GSA's Chief Information Officer. "This approach emulates commercial best practices and conforms to OMB recommendations for federal organizations of our size and scope."
At the same time, Catapult's success in a competitive process demonstrates that small firms can take on and win large, complex procurements.
Founded in 1949, GSA serves as a centralized procurement and property management agency for the Federal government. GSA manages more than one-fourth of the government's total procurement dollars and influences the management of $500 billion in Federal assets, including 8,300 government-owned or leased buildings and 170,000 vehicles. GSA helps preserve our past and define our future, acting as a steward of more than 420 historic properties, and as manager of USA.gov, the official portal to Federal government information and services. GSA's mission to provide superior workplaces, expert technology solutions, acquisition services, purchasing and e-travel solutions and management policies, at best value, allows Federal agencies to focus on their core missions.
Did you know? GSA's goal for fiscal year 2007 is to award 45 percent of its contracts to small businesses, according to the GSA Office of Small Business Utilization.

Metal act Upon a Burning Body is being scolded for a recent publicity stunt involving a missing frontman.
Messages on the group's Facebook page claimed singer Danny Leal had not been seen since Monday. Leal also posted his own messages about a "sketchy car" outside his house and noises in the middle of the night.
But on Tuesday, the CEO of the band's record label revealed that the posts were all part of a publicity stunt. Sumerian Records creator Ash Avildsen says it was all done behind his back, and it's not something he condones. He says no one should use the possibility of abduction or murder for publicity, especially within the rock and metal community, which has seen so much tragedy over the past few years. Avildsen adds that "there are some people who owe us an apology."
Upon a Burning Body is set to take part in the Mayhem Festival, which kicks off this Saturday in San Bernardino, California. Avenged Sevenfold and Korn are also among the outing's headliners. The full lineup is available at RockstarMayhemFest.com.

A model for geographical variation in health and total life expectancy
|Date received:
|03 Dec 2005

|Word count:
|disease burden, healthy life expectancy, life tables, proportionality assumption, spatial effects
This paper develops a joint approach to life and health expectancy based on 2001 UK Census data for limiting long term illness and general health status, and on registered death occurrences in 2001.
The model takes account of the interdependence of different outcomes (e.g. ill health and mortality) as well as spatial correlation in their patterns. A particular focus is on the proportionality assumption or 'multiplicative model' whereby separate age and area effects multiply to produce age-area mortality rates. Alternative non-proportional models are developed and shown to be more parsimonious as well as more appropriate to actual area-age interdependence. The application involves mortality and health status in the 33 London Boroughs.

Julia Roberts Ad: Too Perfect for the UK
The UK bans a Julia Roberts cosmetics ad for being overly airbrushed.
-Evette Brown
Pretty Woman Julia Roberts is the newest celeb victim of the UK's fight against Photoshop.
According to a report from Newser, the British advertising authorities have forced L'Oreal to pull two of Julia Roberts and Christy Turlington's latest print ads, citing that both bombshells were overly airbrushed.
Looking as if she's 20 again in two of the ads, Julia Roberts looks fabulous (as always). But, this lack of aging alarmed advertising authorities. They claim the extensive retouching might mislead consumers – especially since one of the ads is about L'Oreal's new foundation, which is supposed to have the ability to create "natural light."
Read Olivia Wilde's Best Red Carpet Looks
So, what is the powerhouse brand's response? L'Oreal has admitted to lightening Christy's skin, but claims that the ads left signs of aging on her face. As for Julia, there was no comment!
A UK lawmaker who has lobbied in court for ridding advertising of unrealistic images is pleased with the decision. She told the Guardian newspaper, "Both Christy Turlington and Julia Roberts are naturally beautiful women who don't need retouching to look great. This ban sends a powerful message to advertisers: Let's get back to reality."
The UK is working hard to make all women feel beautiful!

We have been proud to work with City Harvest through our Better To Give program, donating on our customer's behalf to an organization that helps feed New York's hungry. The amount of people living in New York City who are considered Food Insecure is about 1.2 million (source), and that number has increased since Sandy has left many without electricity and some without homes.
City Harvest is working hard to support Hurricane Sandy victims while continuing to feed the hungry men, women and children who rely on it every day. In addition to daily deliveries to soup kitchens and food pantries across the five boroughs, City Harvest is making emergency food drop-offs in especially hard hit areas in Staten Island, Coney Island and Red Hook in Brooklyn, and Breezy Point and Rockaway in Queens.
Since the storm, City Harvest has been accepting donations of non-perishable food from citizens and prepared foods from partnering restaurants across the city. They have rented additional trucks and hired additional temporary staff to keep food moving to where it is needed most. In the week following the storm, City Harvest delivered over a million pounds of food from their Long Island City, Queens location to emergency food partners across the city – the most ever for City Harvest in a week.
- If you're in the NYC area, you can volunteer with City Harvest to sort and deliver food.

Physical activity and sickle cell trait— published: 02-08-2013
Approximately 300 million people around the world have sickle cell trait (SCT), including approximately 9% of African Americans. It is a hereditary condition in which red blood cells are affected, but most people who have it never experience symptoms. (It is important to note that SCT is not the same as sickle cell disease [SCD]. Sickle cell disease [or sickle cell anemia] can lead to other serious clinical risks and can cause severe symptoms. Those with the SCD usually have a shorter lifespan.)
Individuals with SCT usually can participate in normal physical activity and sports, as SCT doesn't seem to adversely affect performance. In fact, some studies have found that those with SCT excel in short-distance power activities such as sprinting and jumping.
While SCT is largely a benign condition, there have been related complications such as exertional rhabdomyolysis and exercise-related sudden death. They have been found in non-SCT individuals as well, but they occur at higher rates in those with SCT and are a "hot topic" in military, and civilian communities; the National Collegiate Athletic Association even requires screening for all its Division I and II athletes.
It has been suggested that those with SCT may be more prone to sudden death from dehydration, heat illness, and high-intensity exercise; however, these factors and the role of prevention standards, medications, and the use of dietary supplements are still being studied. In both military and civilian SCT populations, collapsing during exercise is most commonly observed during times runs and sprints within the first few weeks of conditioning. SCT Recruits who have difficulty passing the Physical Readiness Test are also at higher risk for collapse. Military leaders should be aware of safe training guidelines and take universal precautions. Effective prevention tactics include heat acclimatization, hydration, gradual physical conditioning, and addressing progressively worse symptoms early on.
All newborns in the United States are screened for both SCT and SCD as part of a public health imperative. Each military branch has its own policies regarding SCT. The Army does not screen for SCT but promotes universal precautions for all soldiers, whereas the Air Force, Navy, and Marines all screen for SCT after accession. Further testing and counseling may be done for those who are positive for SCT. If you are unsure about SCT and exercise, consult with your physician, especially if you are starting a new exercise routine.

The Arcade Experience: A Look Into Modern Arcade Games and Why They Still Matter

204pp. | ISBN/EAN-13: 1482757850/9781482757859
Formats: Tablet ($4.99) and paperback ($26.99)
The Arcade Experience: A Look Into Modern Arcade Games and Why They Still Matter covers the amusement arcade's Golden Age, the videogame crash in the 1980s, and the industry's slow recovery and resurgence. It provides a comprehensive history of arcades, an analysis of the present and a glimpse into future possibilities for arcade videogames. Pratt's book is not solely focused on videogames, however, as it looks at the role of classic coin machines like pinball, prize redemption and virtual reality, and all points between these archetypal arcade amusements.
Pratt's book also includes an extensive listing of the most important and popular videogames in today's diverse amusement mix for gamerooms, family entertainment centers, bowling alleys and movie theater lobbies, as well as Asian amusement venues.
The Arcade Experience combines Pratt's four years' experience as an operator, his passion for videogames and his talent as a writer. Thanks to Adam Pratt, the modern arcade industry now has its very own book that takes a serious look at developments and trends, and illustrates the ongoing relevance of arcade entertainment and its international social impact.

Jess Brown Coco Doll
Inspired by beautiful textiles and a love of making things with her hands, Jess Brown made a commitment thirteen years ago to give her children handmade gifts that would have lasting heirloom significance. She crafted her first rag doll for her daughter out of old cashmere sweaters and antique scrap fabrics. Today she operates a small collaborative of friends in her hometown of Petaluma, CA where they stuff each doll with sustainable corn fiber stuffing, and use antique trims, buttons, and textiles to craft the body from muslin that they dye by hand with Persian Black teas to create a natural variation in skin tone. Each of these dolls was cut exclusively for Half Hitch Goods and is totally unique, complete with little button shoulders.
The Coco doll was specially designed by Jess Brown for the book Kiki and Coco In Paris. These dolls are dressed in beautiful white lace to resemble the doll fashioned for the book published by Cameron & Co last year. Each doll is slightly unique and there will be amazing variations in the tone of her black hair and her lace dress.

'Buckwild' star Shain Gandee likely died from carbon monoxide poisoning
(Yahoo!) - It appears that Shain Gandee died doing what he loved.
While mudding with his uncle, David Gandee, and friend, Donald Robert Myers, following a night at a West Virginia bar on Saturday, the "Buckwild" star's 1984 Ford Bronco got stuck in the thick, dirty water and its tailpipe submerged, thus preventing the exhaust from leaving the car.
Although the coroner has yet to confirm what took the three men's lives, speculation that carbon monoxide poisoned them is "not irresponsible," says Dan Humphries, spokesman for the sheriff's department. "But we're waiting on the coroner's report."
When Shain's truck was discovered early Monday morning, "The vehicle sat unevenly, but upright, and was partially submerged in deep mud," according to a statement from officials in Kanawha County. "Mud was covering the lower part of the passenger side door of the vehicle, but the driver's side of the vehicle was above the mud. The muffler of the vehicle was completely below the surface of the mud."
Until an exact cause of death is determined, Shain's family and friends are grieving the fun-loving 21-year-old, who was the breakout star of the MTV reality series. Still, despite his fame since "Buckwild's" premiere in January, Shain did not have much money and his family is struggling to pay for his funeral. So they are planning to both raise funds and honor their beloved with a "mud run" on Wednesday in Proctorville, Ohio, which is not far from Charleston, West Virginia, where the show is filmed. For $10 per vehicle, participants can take part in the off-road event, which was one of his favorite pastimes.

CHICAGO -- The National Automatic Merchandising Association will host a Gratitude Event, demonstrating the latest vending and office refreshments technology, the day before the formal opening of its upcoming Coffee, Tea & Water conference. The event will be conducted at New Orleans's Tulane University on Tuesday, Nov. 13, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The Gratitude Event is part of a NAMA initiative to capture consumer attention and educate the public about the contemporary vending and refreshment services industry. The first was held at the conclusion of a "gratitude tour" that made its last stop at the University of Nevada at Las Vegas just before NAMA's 2012 OneShow. Gratitude Events are part of the vending association's broader industry growth strategy that is designed to initiate conversations between the industry and the public.
Another purpose of the gratitude program is to say "thank you" to vending customers, especially Generation Y users (aged 18 to 29). This age cohort has been shown by NAMA research to prefer vending to convenience, drug and grocery stores for snacks and cold beverages.
To give consumers a sampling of the latest high-tech vending machines and coffee brewers, products and technology, Gratitude Event sponsors will give away hundreds of free snacks, cold and hot beverages The latest technology in single-cup specialty coffee brewers from Starbucks, Keurig, Mars Drinks and other leading manufacturers and suppliers will be on display for consumers and coffee show registrants to interact with and use. Vending machines from Coca-Cola and Crane Merchandising Systems, among others, will offer students and other members of the public a variety of interactive experiences.
In addition to demonstrations of leading-edge customer interfaces designed to attract, entertain and instruct, and sophisticated beverage delivery systems using premium products in single-serve cartridges, the event will showcase new payment systems offering enhanced convenience to users of mobile devices.
Fourteen state-of-the-art vending machines and single-cup coffee brewers are being provided by Mondelez International, Coinco, Royal Vendors, InOne Technology, Coca-Cola, Canteen Vending, Crane Merchandising Systems, U-Select-It, Starbucks, Tassimo, Mars Drinks, Keurig, Cafection Enterprises, Newco Enterprises and Vendors Exchange International. Other vending industry leaders supporting the Gratitude Event include Refreshment Solutions, VendScreen and Aramark.
Tulane University, on St. Charles Ave. in downtown New Orleans, is about 10 minutes away from the Hyatt Regency New Orleans on Loyola Ave., the venue for the Coffee, Tea & Water conference.
Headquartered in Chicago, the National Automatic Merchandising Association was established in 1936.
