LONG BEACH >> City Manager Pat West on Monday announced the appointment of Kelly Colopy, the manager of a Utah public mental health network, as director of the Long Beach Department of Health and Human Services.
Colopy has been Network Director for Optum Salt Lake County since last year.
She replaces Ron Arias, who had led the Health Department since February 2000. Arias announced his retirement last year and left the office in December.
"Kelly Colopy exemplifies the type of leadership we were looking for in a new Health Department Director," West said in statement.
"She has demonstrated the ability to manage a complex set of responsibilities over the course of her career, and we are pleased to welcome her aboard the city's executive management team."
Colopy manages a network of 220 service providers delivering about $60 million in mental health and substance abuse services.
She was previously associate director of the Salt Lake County Human Services and Community Services Departments and research director for Substance Abuse at the Utah Department of Human Services.
"My entire career thus far has reflected a personal commitment to working with communities and individuals to support successful and healthy living," Colopy said in a statement. "I am thrilled to be appointed the city's next Director of Health and Human Services, and look forward to merging the enthusiasm I have for public health and human services with the city's commitment to providing quality services."
According to the city, Colopy's salary will be $185,000. She will start sometime in early September.
The Long Beach Health Department is one of three city-operated local health jurisdictions in California along with Pasadena and Berkeley. Other local cities are served by Los Angeles County.
Known simply as the Health Department, the Long Beach agency has five bureaus focused on 31 missions — ranging from homeless services and veterans affairs supportive housing, to preventive health and public health nursing, to vector control, which is the monitoring and control of disease-carrying animals and insects.

Ross Werland, Chicago Tribune
Name: ECBC Harpoon Daypack B7101
What it is: It's the ultimate "personal bag" for someone who travels with just a carry-on and personal bag.
It measures 18.4 by 12.13 by 5.25 inches and weighs a mere 2.2 pounds. It's made with water-resistant, high-density "ballistic nylon," plus protective foam to shield a laptop as large as 17 inches.
The good: You could probably beat it with a sledgehammer and not damage this day pack. It fits easily under an airplane seat and still leaves foot room.
It holds plenty, plus it has a small pocket keys, MP3 player, all the crucial things.
It has two main compartments plus a third zippered compartment on the outside that is perfect for boarding passes and passports.
There also are zippered interior pockets, and two exterior expandable pockets for bottles or a compact umbrella.
The shoulder straps are tough enough that you can do the one-strap-over-one-shoulder carry.
The bad: One shoulder strap seemed to ride a little off-center initially; over time, it seems to have straightened out.
Cost: $99.99. One online retailer had it for $89 with free shipping.

Utah lawmakers have agreed to pay millions of dollars to the state-appointed administrator of a much-contested polygamous trust.
Lawmakers approved SB3 on Thursday, the last day of the 2013 legislative session. The bill deals with funding for state government and includes an agreement to pay $5.69 million to accountant Bruce Wisan's office for its work on the United Effort Plan (UEP). However, most of that money will effectively be a loan from the state and must be repaid.
The UEP is a trust that owns millions of dollars in assets, including land and homes in the polygamous towns of Hildale, Utah, and Colorado City, Arizona. The trust was formed by the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, but was taken over by the state in 2005 amid concerns about mismanagement.
When the state took over the trust, a 3rd District Court judge appointed Wisan to oversee it, but he has never been paid for his work. The $5.69 million compensates him for his work and, Wisan said in a phone conversation Friday, will allow him and his legal team to continue running the trust and working to end the state's involvement in the case.
"This is a huge help," he said of the funding. "It's a huge step in the right direction and we hope to resolve this appropriately within the bounds of our fiduciary duty as soon as possible."
Wisan's legislative liaison, former Lt. Gov. Val Oveson, agreed, saying that it was a relief to finally be paid and that the money would be used to end the case.
"The payment is really going to keeping attorneys working on this so we can get it wrapped up," Oveson said.
But the money does come with some conditions. Most significantly, SB3 requires Wisan's office to pay the state back. Wisan said the trust will repay the state by selling assets and collecting occupancy fees, among other things.
Many of the homes owned by the trust are occupied by current and former members of the FLDS church.
Other conditions include an agreement by Wisan's office to not ask the state for more funding, and they cannot seek interest for the past eight years during which the money went unpaid. During a hearing earlier this month, Wisan and state representatives also agreed to explore the possibility of appointing a board of trustees to manage the trust.
The bill also includes a payment schedule and an incentive for Wisan to return the state money quickly. The bill states that two days after it takes effect July 1 Wisan's office will receive $3 million. The state will deliver another $1 million Sept. 16 and the remaining balance on March 17, 2014.
But, if Wisan returns $4 million to the state by April 1, 2014, he will not have to repay any more money.
Wisan said he thought his office could make that deadline.

Kenner Police Chief Concerned About Illegal Border Crossings
Kenner's new police chief, Michael Glaser, says he's concerned about illegal border crossings, especially in light of the news that a suspect in a murder in Metairie last Sunday crossed the U.S.-Mexican border with children illegally last June.
But Glaser's concern goes beyond illegal immigrants.
"Anyone that poses a, I mean it could be someone that's from America or someone that comes in illegally, that poses a threat causes concern to me. It's not just someone that entered the country illegally," Glaser said Thursday in an interview with 99.5 WRNO.
The murder suspect, Pedro Monterroso-Navas of Guatemala, crossed with two children on June 26 and the three were released after being told to report back to U.S. immigration authorities once they were settled in the U.S. The AP reports that Monterroso-Navas was freed after it was determined he had no criminal history of gang affilliation.
When it comes to illegal immigrants, Glaser, who heads a police force in a city with a sizable hispanic population, said, "We can only arrest them on either city offenses or state statutes, but when we do take them into custody for violating one of those laws, we notify the immigration service, and it's up to them whether they want to put a detainer on them," Glaser said.
Glaser says residents concerned about what's happening at the border in Texas should voice their concerns to their U.S. representative or senator.

New Datsun Car to be Unveiled in Jakarta, Indonesia
- Datsun will introduce another all-new car in Indonesia on September 17, 2013
- This new Datsun model, developed specifically for Indonesia, will be priced below 100 Million Indonesian rupiah
YOKOHAMA, September 05, 2013 – Today Datsun announced that a new car will be unveiled in Jakarta, Indonesia on September 17. It will be the first of two models to go on sale in Indonesia in 2014.
This new Datsun car was developed locally, backed-up by Nissan Motor Company's global technical experience and expertise to meet the needs of the new generation of aspirational customers ("risers") in Indonesia. As with all of the new-generation of Datsun models, it is modern, attractive, accessible and reliable. Priced below 100 million Indonesian rupiah, the car will be attainable for up-and-coming customers who strive to realize the dream of new car ownership.
More information about the car will be available on September 17, 2013.
About Datsun
Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. announced the return of the Datsun brand, Nissan's third global brand, alongside Nissan and Infiniti, in March 2012. Datsun will provide a sustainable motoring experience to optimistic up-and-coming customers in high-growth markets. Datsun represents 80 years of accumulated Japanese car-making expertise and is an important part of Nissan's DNA. Datsun vehicles will start sales in India, Indonesia, Russia and South Africa from 2014.
Datsun History
Datsun originated in Japan as DAT-GO (the DAT-car) almost a century ago in 1914. The word DAT means 'lightning-fast' in Japanese but is also a reference to the first letters of family names of the three financiers who supported the business at the time: Den, Aoyama and Takeuchi. Using the same logic, it was promoted as Durable, Attractive and Trustworthy, or DAT for short.
In 1933, Nissan's founding father Yoshisuke Aikawa took over the business with a vision of "mobility for all". The introduction of a light-weight, economical yet resilient car to meet the aspirations of young Japanese people in the early 1930s was named the 'son of DAT' – Datson - which later changed to Datsun. Local engineering and mass-production made the founder's dream a reality.

On his second try in two weeks, Gov. Bobby Jindal received legislators' approval Friday to change the management of state employee health plans.
The House Appropriations and Senate Finance committees gave the green light to the hiring of Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana after a reorganization removed two legislators opposed to the proposal.
Also aiding the Jindal administration Friday: A handful of House members who aligned themselves with opponents to the proposal last week either skipped the vote or voted with the governor this time.
The House committee voted 16-10 in favor of the hiring while the vote among Senate members was 10-3.
Blue Cross stands to receive $37.8 million a year to serve as administrator.
State Rep. Ted James, D-Baton Rouge, complained afterward that the governor controls the legislative branch.
Another legislator, state Rep. Tony Ligi, R-Metairie, summed up the vote differently, calling the inclusion of favorable votes by four Democrats a bipartisan decision that will protect state employees' health while saving dollars.
The approval means the Office of Group Benefits no longer will handle the health plans of thousands of current and retired state employees. Instead, Blue Cross will step into that role, displacing state workers.
The Office of Group Benefits will continue to make decisions on premiums.
The Jindal administration contends the change will save money and streamline the office's operations.
Instead of state workers overseeing one health plan and private companies overseeing others, Blue Cross now will manage the preferred provider organization, the health maintenance organization and the Consumer Driven Health Plan-Health Savings Account.
"We think this is a very good way to simply save money for the taxpayer," said Commissioner of Administration Kristy Nichols, the governor's chief budget adviser.
Critics raised concerns about changing operations at a state agency that accumulated a sizable fund balance. They also questioned whether savings will materialize.
"While some savings may be realized, nothing has been guaranteed to you," said Julie Cherry, of the Louisiana AFL-CIO.
The Legislative Fiscal Office, which analyzes state government revenue proposals, handed legislators a revised report questioning the purported savings and a recent budget request by the Office of Group Benefits.
The Office of Group Benefits provides health and life insurance to about a quarter-million current and retired state employees and their dependents.
The fiscal office's report raised two issues:
- Analysts estimated the annual savings will range from $11 million to $18.3 million, not the $20 million claimed by the Jindal administration.
- OGB's budget request for the fiscal year that starts July 1 includes a $169 million increase in claims payments that could erase any savings.
State Rep. Katrina Jackson, D-Monroe, asked the Jindal administration to explain the claims payment increase. She said the increase previously never topped $28 million.
Charles D. Calvi Jr., OGB's chief executive officer, said he couldn't address previous budget requests because he is relatively new to the job. He said the pending request is based on actuarial assumptions.
"What you see here today is not outside the norm," Nichols told Jackson.
Senate Finance Chairman Jack Donahue, R-Mandeville, jumped in when Jackson continued to press the issue.
"Why don't we move on," Donahue suggested.
State Sen. Fred Mills, R-St. Martinville, said the fiscal office's three-page report troubled him.
He pointed to the last line of the report, which stated that school boards, state agencies and employees will see savings only through premium decreases, which can be implemented regardless of whether Blue Cross is hired.
Travis McIlwain, general government section director for the fiscal office, said there will be administrative savings.
"Are you clear now?" Donahue asked Mills.
"As mud," Mills replied.
Michael Delesdernier, finance chairman of the Jefferson Parish School Board, told the committees that his organization is supportive of the proposal.
Ligi thanked Delesdernier for recognizing common sense over politics.
The Jindal administration tried to gain approval last week for the proposal. Nichols asked to withdraw the contract after an hours-long meeting revealed apparent rifts among legislators on changing OGB's operations.
Two members who opposed the proposal — Appropriations Vice Chairman Cameron Henry, R-New Orleans, and state Rep. Joe Harrison, R-Napoleonville — lost their committee seats the following day.
Their replacements voted in favor of the proposal Friday.

GMC Vandura 2500 Problems
RepairPal has identified the most common problems with the GMC Vandura 2500 based on complaints from actual vehicle owners. We'll tell you what the problem is and what it'll take to fix it.
An engine vacuum leak may develop from the throttle body gasket causing a higher than normal idle speed. Failed gaskets should be replaced.
The alternator may fail causing the battery to go dead. The charge light on the dash may or may not illuminate. The alternator may also develop an abnormal noise. A failed alternator will require replacement.
The distributor may develop internal faults. This can cause a rough running engine or stalling condition, the Check Engine Light may or may not illuminate. Our technicians tell us that the distributor should be overhauled or replaced to correct this concern.
Our technicians recommend flushing the brake fluid every 60,000 miles. Brake fluid that is dirty may cause problems in the brake system.
The fuel pump may fail causing the engine to stall and not restart. Our technicians recommend replacing the fuel filter every 30,000 miles to help prevent undue strain on the fuel pump.
A coolant leak may develop from the water pump. This can result in an engine overheating condition. A leaking water pump will require replacement.
The intake manifold gasket may develop and external engine oil or coolant leak. In some cases, an internal coolant leak may occur causing coolant to mix with the engine oil. Running the engine with a coolant/oil mix may result in engine damage. Replacing the intake manifold gasket should correct this issue.
On the 4L80-E Transmission (Diesel and 7.4L gas engine), Transmission fluid may leak through the electrical connector on the side of the transmission, damaging the wire harness and causing the transmission to shift erratically. Our technicians tell us there are updated shift solenoids, an internal transmission harness, and a connector pigtail available to correct this fault.

2013 Celebration of Light: Estrella
Did you know that there are over ten sextillion stars in the sky? That's 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (a one with 22 zeroes after it)! But at the time of Jesus' birth, there was one star that people were fixated on. The wise men proclaimed, "For we have seen
His star
in the East and have come to worship Him" (Matt. 2:2, emphasis added). This year, Lenya Heitzig and
Ministries invite you to seek out the Star at our 2013 Celebration of Light: Estrella.

Stepheny Durham from Jacksonville (Flor.) Atlantic Coast is one of the top juniors in the state of Florida. Durham was in Orlando on Saturday to check out the Nebraska Cornhuskers as they prepared for the Capital One Bowl.
"I was at Nebraska's practice for their bowl game," Durham said. "I was wearing a Nebraska shirt because I buy something for every school that offers or shows me interest.
"The practice went well. The guys were all working hard. It was good to see how the coaches work."
The practice provided Durham a good chance to look at the style of defense that Nebraska runs as well as how they want to use their defensive backs. Durham said he liked what he saw and said his style would be a good fit.
"I think their defense is a good fit for me," Durham said. "Their DBs look physical and I am a physical guy. Harvey Jackson looked good and played physical today."
Durham and his Atlantic Coast team only went .500 on the season, but Durham says the future looks bright. It was a good season for Durham who pulled in some top individual honors.
"We did alright, but we should have done better. We went 5-5 and my season personally was good. We were getting better, we are young, and I think that we should make a run at the playoffs next year.
"I was an all-conference and all-district selection this past year. I think that I finished the season with four interceptions."
Durham is just a junior, but he says that there are some plans to get out and make some trips this spring. There is only one team that will get a visit for sure.
"I know for sure that I will go to see Georgia Tech in the spring for either a junior day or their spring game," Durham said. "Besides them I don't know what other schools I will visit this spring."
Durham says that there are some key qualities that he is looking for when it comes to picking out a school. One of those qualities will not be staying close to home though.
"I am looking for a good education, good coaching staff and a good system. I am open to any location. I don't necessarily want to stay close to home."
Durham is holding offers from Georgia Tech, Minnesota, Ole Miss, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina and Vanderbilt.

Our Language Services Program provides face-to-face, telephone and video relay interpreters for patient families who do not speak English or who have limited speech proficiency or hearing or speech issues. This service is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. There is no cost to the patient family.
Children's Hospital of Wisconsin only uses qualified medical interpreters. Studies show when family or friend interprets, they often leave out important details or do not know how to explain medical terms. Our interpreters have special training and know how to handle sensitive situations. Please ask for an interpreter if you feel it will help you understand your child's care.

By default m0n0wall is configured to allow LAN access to anything. You
are free to change / remove that rule if necessary so you are able to
control the access from LAN to OPT if necessary.
>My current thought is to configure the LAN

I assume you mean bridging OPT with WAN. With your four servers you
will need a minimum of six IP addresses (4 servers, 1 for the firewall
and 1 for the router on WAN).
You will need to enable filtered bridging and advanced NAT (otherwise
you won't be able to access OPT from LAN). You will then need to ensure
that there is a NAT rule for LAN traffic destined for the WAN.
I have my m0n0wall in that exact configuration and haven't had any
problems. I also have a number of other OPT interfaces on wireless
networks etc.
You should also bear in mind that you cannot created a bridge with VLAN
interfaces (that's my experience, anyway).

Keep in mind during this process that the USB 2.0 on the left side of the M14X always has power when plugged into AC, even when the box is off. So if you try to F12 boot and the USB is not in the list, remove and reinsert it from the laptop and reboot with F12 again.
When booting from USB stick using unetbootin, boot will hang at a black screen. If you wait a few minutes you will notice some USB drive activity and then you can type "startx" and x windows will start. However it crashes shortly after with a black screen and just the mouse cursor which is locked.
Although with no display you will notice that you can still enter commands. To test this, just type startx again and hit enter. If x-windows starts to load again then you still have command line access.
Wait for the black screen and cursor hang again and blindly enter the following commands (without the display):

where you would normally type "startx" type this first:
cd /root/.kde/
press enter then type this:
find . -type f -iname "*.kcache" -delete
now type:
this worked for me and i then installed backtrack and upon restart i had the "startx" problem again, i put in these commands again and now it's working fine every time i reboot, hope this helps as it has me

2 year old nursing vs food percentages
My 2 year old bub still nurses. Mostly it is only at night when I come home from work but on weekends and when I am home he wants to nurse all day. As a working mum, night feedings are hard for me and I would love to reduce those feedings. I am also worried about whether I should still express for him during the day and how much milk he should be getting vs food intake. Some days he eats a lot of solid food and others he doesn't want any at all or only a few fruits.
Help! I am worried about his development!
23rd April 2014 04:31 AM #2
Dear dsmum,
Firstly, I would say you do not need to worry about his development based on what you have said above. If he is generally happy and eating well and meeting the appropriate speech and language milestones etc then I would not be concerned.
What can often happen when mum works away is that when she is back the toddler then wants to breastfeed a lot more. This is part of their way of reconnecting with mum. Breastfeeding is so much more than gaining nutrients (although this is a great advantage of breastmilk and the nutrients contained in it are like no other milk) it is also a bonding and comfort and a special time for mum and little one.
However, I can understand that you find night feeds difficult when you are going out to work too. Can you husband or partner try comforting your toddler when he wakes at night? Does anything else comfort him back to sleep. Have you read the No Cry Sleep Solution by Elizabeth Pantley? You may find 'Pantley's gentle removal method' useful. If you have not heard of this then please post back and I will explain further.
In terms of the nutrient content, at 24 months of age it is possible for a child to get around 20% of their daily nutrients from the breastmilk alone. So it should be around a 4:1 ratio of solid food to breastmilk. Many, many toddlers (breastfed or not) will have days when they will eat and days when they won't eat.
Dr. Sears (the Paediatrician of Attachment Parenting fame) talks about looking at your toddler's diet over a 5 day average basis. What really matters is that in every 5 day period your toddler gets the nutrients he needs. So it is ok if he has a day of hardly eating and another day of eating mainly meat then a day of lots of breastmilk and a day of fruit and veg and a day of carbohydrates etc. Also remember that toddlers often like to graze throughout the day. A 'grazing plate' full of healthy, nutritious snacks that your toddler can easily help themselves to can be a good day to help them eat more.
I do hope that this helps you. Please post back and let me know what your thoughts are.
Warm wishes,

All of this information really helps! It is interesting to hear about the percentages and the 5 day period theory. I have heard a lot of good things about Elizabeth Pantley and her book but haven't purchased it yet. I will have to do that! My husband is home at night sometimes so I will have to recruit him to help. I have also heard great things about Dr Sears and recently looked into some of his work. I will have to look up the diet research as well to learn more!
I appreciate your help and will definitely look more into the resources that you provided.

Hi Rachel,
I'm very pleased my response was helpful. Yes please do have a look at those resources.
Here is a link direct from the No Cry Sleep Solution which I think may help you: Elizabeth Pantley's site.
The kellymom breastfeeding website is also fantastic on this topic.
Do let me know how you get on and if you have any further questions.
Wishing you all the best,
