Fox & Friends ignore their own interview to mislead on DHS immigration memo
Research ››› ››› JUSTIN BERRIER
Fox & Friends misled on a Department of Homeland Security memo on immigration reform, falsely claiming it "appears to show the White House has an amnesty plan," which they plan to implement by "going around Congress." The hosts continued to mislead even after White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs confirmed that the administration "doesn't support amnesty" and intended to deal with immigration "through Congress"; Fox & Friends also failed to mention that the DHS memo itself recommended against deferred action, saying it would be "controversial, not to mention expensive."
Gibbs informs Fox & Friends that the White House does not support amnesty
Camerota introduces Gibbs by claiming the White House "appears to have...an amnesty plan"; Doocy asks if WH plans to "get around Congress by using discretionary authority." On the July 30 edition of Fox News' Fox & Friends, guest host Alisyn Camerota introduced White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs by claiming, "There's a new memo out this morning that appears to show the White House has an amnesty plan." Camerota said to Gibbs: "There's a new poll out this week by the Arizona Republic that shows 62% of Arizonians actually believe in letting illegal immigrants stay in the state if they have a job and no criminal record. Is that the type of amnesty that the White House supports?" Co-host Steve Doocy asked Gibbs if the Obama administration "is exploring the way to get around congress by using discretionary authority to allow people who are in the country illegally to stay in the country."
Gibbs confirms that the administration "doesn't support amnesty." During the interview, Gibbs stated "The White House doesn't support amnesty." From Fox & Friends:
GIBBS: The White House doesn't support amnesty and I think people who support comprehensive immigration reform don't support amnesty either. What we need to do is again, figure out how we're going to secure our borders. Deal with those that are here. But do it in a comprehensive way and do it at a federal level because as frustrated as Arizonians are and we understand that, we can't have a patchwork of immigration laws throughout each of the 50 states.
Gibbs: "This administration believes that the only way to deal with immigration is to do it comprehensively," not by using "discretionary authority." During the interview, Gibbs confirmed that Obama was not planning on using "discretionary authority," saying the "administration believes that the only way to deal with immigration is to do it comprehensively," and "with Democrats and Republicans working together." From Fox & Friends:
GIBBS: This administration believes that the only way to deal with immigration is to do it comprehensively. To do it through congress with Democrats and Republicans working together. We've done it before with members like John McCain. Members like Lindsey Graham, working with Democrats like Barack Obama when he was in the U.S. Senate. We can do that again. We can solve this problem once and for all. We can deal with securing our borders as the president has talked about moving 1,200 national guardsmen to secure the borders and I think we can deal with this comprehensively if we'll all just take a step back to deal with the problem.
Undaunted, Fox & Friends continued to mislead about "a back door amnesty plan" following Gibbs' interview
Briggs: The memo "appears to show the White House has a back door amnesty plan." Later in the show, guest host Dave Briggs again misled on the administration's position, claiming, "There is a new memo out this morning that appears to show the White House has a back door amnesty plan."
Doocy ignores Gibbs' response to continue claiming the White House could "do an end around congress." After airing Gibbs' response that "the White House doesn't support amnesty," Doocy continued to speculate that they "could effectively do an end around congress. Because if they're going to go through Congress for some sort of amnesty or, Robert Gibbs would not use the word amnesty, or some sort of a track to citizenship for the 10, 11, 12, 25 million illegals in this country, that would be an end around from Congress."
Briggs: "The right is saying this is a way to buy off the votes to get the Hispanics and illegals voting in these midterm elections." Briggs continued to speculate that the administration is considering amnesty, claiming, "Nobody wants to use the word amnesty. Nobody on either side of the aisle and the right is saying this is a way to buy off those votes to get the Hispanics and get even some illegals voting in these midterm elections in November. So that's the political spin."
Fox's chyrons go from noting "WH 'doesn't support amnesty'" to discussing "administration's amnesty plan" in a matter of seconds. During the segment on the "Administration's amnesty plan," Fox & Friends ran the following contradictory on-screen graphics:
Fox & Friends ignores that the DHS memo recommends against deferred action
DHS memo: Deferred action "would likely be controversial, not to mention expensive." In the Department of Homeland Security memo that Fox is referencing, deferred action, defined as "an exercise of prosecutorial discretion not to pursue removal from the U.S. of a particular individual for a specific period of time," is recommended against. The memo states:
While it is theoretically possible to grant deferred action to an unrestricted number of unlawfully present individuals, doing so would likely be controversial, not to mention expensive.
Rather than making deferred action widely available to hundreds of thousands and as a non-legislative version of "amnesty", [U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services] could tailor the use of this discretionary option for particular groups such as individuals who would be eligible for relief under the DREAM Act.

A computed tomography (CT) scan of the pelvis is an imaging method that uses x-rays to create cross-sectional pictures of the the area between the hip bones. This part of the body is called the pelvic area.
Structures inside and near the pelvis include the bladder, prostate and other male reproductive organs, female reproductive organs, lymph nodes, and pelvic bones.
Single CT images are called slices. The images are stored on a computer, viewed on a monitor, or printed on film. Three-dimensional models of the body area can be created by stacking the slices together.
CAT scan - pelvis; Computed axial tomography scan - pelvis; Computed tomography scan - pelvis; CT scan - pelvis
You are asked to lie on a narrow table that slides into the center of the CT scanner.
Once you are inside the scanner, the machine's x-ray beam rotates around you.
You must be still during the exam, because movement causes blurred images. You may be told to hold your breath for short periods of time.
The scan should take less than 30 minutes.
Certain exams require a special dye, called contrast media, to be delivered into the body before the test starts. The contrast helps certain areas show up better on the x-rays.
If you weigh more than 300 pounds, find out if the CT machine has a weight limit. Too much weight can damage the scanner's working parts.
You will be asked to remove jewelry and wear a hospital gown during the study.
Some people may have discomfort from lying on the hard table.
Contrast given through an IV may cause a slight burning sensation, a metallic taste in the mouth, and a warm flushing of the body. These sensations are normal and usually go away within a few seconds.
CT rapidly creates detailed pictures of the body, including the pelvis and areas near the pelvis. The test may be used to diagnose or detect:
This test may also help:
Results are considered normal if the organs of the pelvis that are being examined are normal in appearance.
Abnormal results may be due to:
Risks of CT scans include:
CT scans do expose you to more radiation than regular x-rays. Having many x-rays or CT scans over time may increase your risk of cancer. But the risk from any one scan is small. You and your doctor should weigh this risk against the benefits of getting a correct diagnosis for a medical problem.
Some people have allergies to contrast dye. Let your doctor know if you have ever had an allergic reaction to injected contrast dye.
In rare cases, the dye causes a life-threatening allergic response called anaphylaxis. If you have any trouble breathing during the test, you should tell the scanner operator right away. Scanners come with an intercom and speakers, so the operator can hear you at all times.

California's Death Penalty Ruled Unconstitutional
(NEWSER) – A potentially huge ruling on the death penalty out of California: A federal judge says the state's system of capital punishment is so inept that California must stop killing inmates, period, reports NBC Bay Area. The decision by US District Judge Cormac J. Carney isn't about the ongoing controversy over lethal-injection drugs; rather, Carney says the state's death penalty amounts to cruel and unusual punishment because death-row inmates are subject to decades of uncertainty and "arbitrary" decisions about their fate, reports the Los Angeles Times. The decision has the potential to "wipe California's death penalty off the books," reports the San Jose Mercury News.

text: Home- Academics- University Catalogue- Mathematics Mathematics (For 2016–2017 academic year) Professors Hart, Lantz, Robertson (Chair), Saracino, Schult, Strand, Valente Associate Professor Ay Assistant Professors Christensen, Cipolli, Howard, Jiménez Bolaños, Seo Visiting Assistant Professor Agbanusi There are many good reasons to study mathematics: preparation for a career, use in another field, or the beauty of the subject itself. Students at Colgate who major in mathematics go on to careers in medicine, law, or business administration as well as areas of industry and education having an orientation in science. Non-majors often require mathematical skills to carry on work in other disciplines, and all students can use the study of mathematics to assist them in forming habits of precise expression, in developing their ability to reason logically, and in learning how to deal with abstract concepts. There are also many people who view mathematics as an art form, to be studied for its own intrinsic beauty. All mathematics courses are open to qualified students. Entering first-year students who have successfully completed at least three years of secondary school mathematics, including trigonometry, should be adequately prepared for MATH 111. Students who have studied calculus in secondary school are often ready to enter MATH 112 or 113. Major Program MATH 111, 112 (or equivalent calculus experience approved by the department) is required for admission to a major or minor in mathematics. The requirements for a major in mathematics are as follows: MATH 113 and 214 completed by the end of the sophomore year. MATH 250 completed by the end of the sophomore year with a grade of C or better. MATH 320 and 323 Five additional mathematics courses numbered 300 or above. One of these must be a senior research experience which will normally be MATH 399 or a 400-level course. With department chair pre-approval, on occasion the research experience may be satisfied by an independent study. See "Advanced Placement and Transfer Credit" below for additional information. Majors who are planning to undertake graduate study in mathematics are advised to take MATH 421 and 424. Minor Program in Mathematics The requirements for a minor are as follows: MATH 113 and 214. MATH 250 completed with a grade of C or better. Either MATH 320 or 323. Two other mathematics courses numbered 300 or above. See "Advanced Placement and Transfer Credit" below for additional information. Minor Program in Applied Mathematics The requirements for a minor are as follows: MATH 113 and 214. MATH 250 completed with a grade of C– or better. MATH 308. Two of the following courses: MATH 310, 311, 312, 313, 315, 316, 317, 329, MATH/BIOL 302, MATH 458 (formerly MATH 407), MATH/BIOL 481. See "Advanced Placement and Transfer Credit" below for additional information. In order to graduate with a major in mathematics, a minor in mathematics, or a minor in applied mathematics, the student must have a GPA of at least 2.00 in mathematics courses counted for the major or minor. The department also strongly recommends that students pursuing a major or a minor in mathematics complete COSC 101 or its equivalent. Honors and High Honors To qualify for honors in mathematics, majors must take, as one of the courses required for the major, a course at the 400 level. Majors must have a GPA of at least 3.30 in mathematics courses counted for the major. For high honors, the corresponding GPA must be at least 3.70. Candidates for honors must also perform satisfactorily on the honors examination, which is given once each semester and covers MATH 320 and 323. Based upon the result of the honors examination, a student may be invited to stand for high honors. A candidate for high honors must, under the guidance of a faculty member of the department, write a high honors paper during the senior year and make an oral presentation of the results. In order for high honors to be awarded, the department must accept this paper and presentation as being of high honors quality. The high honors candidate may register for an independent study course so that the paper satisfies the senior experience requirement. Awards See "Honors and Awards: Mathematics" in Chapter VI. Calculus Placement Students should review the MATH 111, 112, and 113 course descriptions for information on topics and prerequisites, or consult with a department faculty member. In general, students are encouraged to enroll in a higher-level course. Students may drop back from MATH 112 to MATH 111 within the first three weeks, subject to available space in an acceptable MATH 111 section. Advanced Placement Students who have taken the Calculus-BC, Calculus-AB, or Statistics Advanced Placement exam of the College Entrance Examination Board will be granted credit according to the following policy: Students earning 4 or 5 on the Calculus-BC Advanced Placement exam will receive credit for MATH 111 and 112. Students earning 3 on the Calculus BC exam will receive credit only for MATH 111. Students earning 4 or 5 on the Calculus-AB Advanced Placement exam will receive credit for MATH 111. Students earning 4 or 5 on the Statistics Advanced Placement exam will receive credit for MATH 105. There are no other circumstances under which a student will receive credit at Colgate for a mathematics course taken in high school. Transfer Credit Transfer credit for a mathematics course taken at another college will be granted upon the pre-approval of the department chair. Mathematics majors or minors may not receive transfer credit for MATH 250, 320, or 323, but must pass these courses at Colgate and must take them as regularly scheduled courses, not as independent studies. At most, two transfer or independent studies courses may be counted toward a major or minor. International Exam Transfer Credit Transfer credit and/or placement appropriate to academic development of a student may be granted to incoming first year students who have achieved a score on an international exam (e.g., A-Levels, International Baccalaureate) that indicates a level of competence equivalent to the completion of a specific course in the department. Requests should be directed to the department chair. Any such credit may not be used to fulfill the university areas of inquiry requirement, but may count towards the major. Teacher Certification The Department of Educational Studies offers a teacher education program for majors in mathematics who are interested in pursuing a career in elementary or secondary school teaching. Please refer to "Educational Studies." Computer Science/Mathematics Major See "Computer Science." Mathematical Economics Major See "Economics." Mathematical Systems Biology Minor See "Mathematical Systems Biology." Study Groups Colgate sponsors several study-abroad programs that can support continued work toward a major in mathematics. These include, but are not limited to, the Wales Study Group (U.K.), the Australia Study Group, the Australia II Study Group, and the Manchester Study Group (U.K.). For more information about these programs, see "Off-Campus Study" in Chapter VI. Course Offerings MATH courses count toward the Natural Sciences and Mathematics area of inquiry requirement, unless otherwise noted. 101 Precalculus Mathematics A. Strand A study of the following types of functions, their properties, and their graphs: polynomials, rational functions, trigonometric, exponential, and logarithmic functions. This 0.25-credit course is intended for students whose background in mathematics may be deficient. Its objective is to lay a foundation for the study of calculus and concurrent enrollment is MATH 111 is required. Credit is contingent upon completion (regardless of grade) of MATH 111. Prerequisite: permission of the instructor. Offered in the fall only. 105 Introduction to Statistics Staff An introduction to the basic concepts of statistics. Topics include experimental design, descriptive statistics, correlation, regression, basic probability, mean tendencies, the central limit theorem, point estimation with errors, hypothesis testing for means, proportions, paired data, and the chi-squared test for independence. Emphasis is on statistical reasoning rather than computation, although computation is done via spreadsheet. Prerequisite: three years of secondary school mathematics. Note: This course is not open to students who have either received credit for or are currently enrolled in CORE 143S, the former MATH 102, or MATH 317. 111 Calculus I Staff An introduction to the basic concepts of differential and integral calculus including limits and continuity; differentiation of algebraic, trigonometric, exponential, and logarithmic functions; applications of the derivative to curve sketching, related rates, and maximum-minimum problems; Riemann sums and the definite integral; and the fundamental theorem of calculus. Prerequisite: three years of secondary school mathematics including trigonometry. 112 Calculus II Staff A continuation of the study of calculus begun in MATH 111, including the calculus of inverse trigonometric functions, techniques of integration, improper integrals, l'Hôpital's rule and indeterminate forms, applications of integration, and Taylor series. Prerequisite: MATH 111 with a grade of C– or higher or equivalent experience in a secondary school calculus course. 113 Multivariable Calculus Staff The calculus of functions of two or three variables. Among the topics considered are surfaces in three-dimensional space, partial derivatives, maxima and minima, and multiple integrals. Prerequisite: MATH 111 with a grade of C– or higher or equivalent experience in a secondary school calculus course. 149 Mathematical Deliberation A. Strand The emphasis throughout this course is the development of the ability to think creatively - to solve mathematical exercises that must be stated as a mathematical model (the creative thinking aspect) and then solved using techniques encountered during a student's secondary educational experience in mathematics in the courses known as algebra, plane geometry, trigonometry and elementary functions. An inspiration for this offering reflects the ability of computers and calculators to carry out many of the mathematical techniques needed to obtain a solution to a mathematical model - it is the modeling aspect that is now the stumbling block to solving mathematically posed problems and it has always been the more difficult aspect to address when solutions to problems (especially "word" problems) are requested. 214 Linear Algebra A. Ay, D. Lantz, D. Schult, A. Strand A study of systems of linear equations, matrices, determinants, vector spaces, linear transformations, eigenvalues, eigenvectors, and diagonalization. Prerequisite: MATH 113 or co-registration in MATH 113. 250 Number Theory and Mathematical Reasoning E. Hart, D. Howard, D. Lantz, D. Saracino, K. Valente Questions about the positive integers 1, 2, 3 . . . have fascinated people for thousands of years. The ancient Greeks noted the existence of right triangles with sides of integral length, corresponding to equations such as 32 + 42 = 52 and 52 + 122 = 132. Is there a way of describing all such "Pythagorean Triples"? As another example, we observe that 5 = 12 + 22, 13 = 22 + 32, 17 = 12 + 42, while none of the primes 7, 11, or 19 can be expressed as the sum of two squares. Is there a pattern? Does it continue forever? This course focuses on such equations as a means for introducing students to the spirit and methods of modern mathematics. The emphasis throughout is on developing the ability to construct logically sound mathematical arguments and communicate these arguments in writing. Prerequisite: MATH 112 or 113 with a grade of C or better, or permission of instructor. 302 Systems Biology This course is crosslisted as BIOL 302. For course description, see "Biology: Course Offerings." 308 Differential Equations A. Ay, S. Jiménez Bolaños, D. Schult, G. Seo, A. Strand A study of ordinary differential equations with associated initial condition. First order equations, linear second order equations with constant coefficients, systems of differential equations, other selected topics, and applications. Prerequisite: MATH 112 and MATH 113 or permission of instructor. 310 Combinatorial Problem Solving D. Howard, A. Robertson This course develops methods to solve combinatorial (finite) problems arising in mathematics, computer science, and other areas from the natural and social sciences. Enumeration and graph theory are the main subjects. Topics include recurrence relations, generating functions, inclusion-exclusion, modeling with graphs, trees and searching, graph coloring, and network algorithms. The emphasis is on problem solving rather than theory. Prerequisite: MATH 112 or permission of instructor. Offered in the spring only, in alternate years. 311 Partial Differential Equations A. Ay, S. Jiménez Bolaños, D. Schult, G. Seo, A. Strand This course explores mathematics as it is applied to the physical sciences. Mathematical topics may include boundary value problems, partial differential equations, special functions, Fourier series and transforms, Green's functions, and approximate solution methods. Prerequisite: MATH 308 or permission of instructor. Offered in the spring only, in alternate years. 312 Math Modeling: Social Sciences D. Schult, G. Seo How do we translate problems from the world into solvable mathematical problems? Mathematical modeling is the art of creating mathematical problems whose solutions are useful for real world problems. Methods such as scaling, qualitative analysis, limits of predictability, and simple random models are discussed. Applications considered arise from economics, political science, and sociology. Prerequisite: MATH 214 or permission of instructor. Offered in the spring only. 313 Functions of a Complex Variable J. Christensen, D. Lantz, D. Schult An introductory study of functions in the complex plane. Topics include complex numbers and functions, the theory of differentiation and integration of complex functions, sequences and series of complex functions, conformal mapping. Special attention is given to Cauchy's integral theorem. Prerequisite: MATH 112 and 113. Offered in the spring only, in alternate years. 315 Mathematical Biology A. Ay, D. Schult, G. Seo This course provides an introduction to the use of continuous and discrete mathematical models in the biological sciences. Biological topics may include single and multispecies population dynamics, modeling of infectious diseases, regulation of cell function, molecular interactions, neural and biological oscillators, ecology, cancer biology, and virus dynamics.

Available only from Hammacher Schlemmer, these hand-sewn indoor/outdoor moccasins are lined with shearling from the coats of sheep that roam the wide steppes of Mongolia. The shearling fibers' dense, hollow structure wicks moisture away and the moccasins have a waterproof thermoplastic rubber sole, keeping feet soft and comfortable both in winter and summer. The leather uppers' abrasion resistance provides years of wear, and the tanning process is designed to leave the original lanolin content of the shearling intact so that feet are cushioned with every step. An EVA midsole cushions the foot and the sheepskin insole can be removed. Brown. (1 1/2 lbs.)Men's. Whole sizes only 7-13.
"These are without a doubt the best slippers my feet have ever experienced." - A.S., North Dakota

Flawless...so far
By Bear

I'm not prone to hyperbole, but these seem to be GOOD slippers. They fit well and are apparently made of top quality materials. The thick soles give good support--important, as I stands on hard floors for long periods, doing various jobs and tasks, and in thin soles my feet get tired and ache. I will be very satisfied if they prove durable and the shearling does not break down (a problem with other slippers).

Peter Rauhofer passes away at 48
Listen to Peter Rauhofer on iHeartRadio
After battling a large brain tumor, found just recently, Peter Rauhofer has sadly passed away at the age of 48. Just last month, his manager shared that Peter had been hospitalized for a seizure, where soon after, doctors discovered the undiagnosed brain tumor.
Peter has had many successes in his career, working with some of the world's biggest musicians including Madonna, Rihanna, and more, in addition to flooding the dance music world with his unforgettable original music.
His manager revealed the tragic news of Peter's passing on his Facebook page. He wrote:
"Today the music industry has lost one of it's true heroes.
With a heavy heart I must now report that Peter Rauhofer has lost his battle with brain cancer.
He passed quietly today and is survived by his mother, Helga, who resides in Austria.
She will transport Peter back home to his final resting place there, but to all that knew Peter, his heart will always be in New York City.
It makes me sad, not only that I have lost a friend, but that the world has lost an amazing talent and that future generations will never get to understand the magic that Peter created night after night all over the world.
He is gone too soon but we will always have the vast body of music that Peter left for us.
Through his music, Peter will live forever. The brightest stars always burn out too soon. Peter, you were loved and you will be terribly missed. Goodbye my friend. Please rest in peace knowing that you have brought so much joy to so many of us. I ask that his true fans keep his legacy alive by sharing his music with anyone who may not have had the opportunity to experience it for themselves."
Many of Peter's fans and colleagues in the industry have been expressing their condolences through social media.

Women: don't forget to vote
December 26, 2012
"Don't forget the ladies," Abigail Adams wrote to her husband, John Adams, as he and his fellow males gathered to create a new nation. It took nearly 150 years for women to legally have the right to vote, a right they already had ethically.
It is thanks to the courage, relentless commitment and sacrifice of thousands of women (some whose very lives were given) that women now have the power of the vote. Women: don't forget the ladies who sacrificed so much. Walk into that voting booth and speak your values with a ballot.

How two women turned the deaths of loved ones into ways to give back to the community.
Spring of junior year is a high school student's dreamtime. Prom and summer vacation are around the corner. Magical, mythical senior year lies right ahead. What happens after that — and after that, and after that — seems far away.
Senior year is the time for new freedoms and adventures, and making decisions about a future that seems endless and full of promise. So universal are these reveries that it's fair to assume that on Friday, May 11, 2007 at 2:43 p.m. — 11 minutes after class was dismissed for the weekend — 17-year-old Haley Jennifer Yarmark was thinking similar things as she walked home along Church Hill Road in Kintnersville, Pa. At 2:44 p.m., Yarmark was hit by a car and killed.
"Everything happens for a reason" is not a maxim uttered by people whose loved ones have suffered fatal illnesses or accidents. There do seem to be a lot of "How?" questions. Like: How did the accident happen?
In Yarmark's case, the driver of the car was a fellow classmate at Palisades High School, another 17-year-old kid, The Morning Call reported. The driver was not drunk or high; he was speeding down the road, having fun with his friends. It was that tragically simple.
In the case of illness, "how" questions generally include: How was the disease contracted? How fast will it spread? How can it be treated? Those are questions that Ellyn Golder Saft knows only too well. Her mother, Cis Golder, was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 1988. There was no history of breast cancer in Golder's family; the lump was found during a routine mammogram.
"I remember asking a lot of questions and wanting all of the information that was available," Golder Saft says. "I think a lot of us do that — try to gather and process the facts. Your world has just been turned upside down and you try to make sense of it. You want to feel in control of an out-of-control situation. You want to know what is going to happen next, because this has come as such a shock. You want to prepare yourself and the person you love."
Golder Saft, her mother and father, Robert, and their family were told exactly what the treatment would be. Golder had a lumpectomy and received radiation. And then, Golder Saft says, she was fine — the treatment worked and Golder was cancer-free. "Life went on," Golder Saft says. "My mother was the same happy, wonderful Cis Golder that she always was. We thought it was a blip on the screen, that the worst was over."
It wasn't. In 1995, seven years after her first diagnosis, Golder had a reoccurrence of breast cancer. While obviously unfortunate, Golder Saft says that her mother treated the news with matter-of-fact resolve. "'How do I get rid of it this time?' is what she wanted to know," Golder Saft says. There was no question that Golder would beat breast cancer again, and she did. A mastectomy left her with a clean bill of health and, Golder Saft says, a sense that with the breast gone, so was the cancer.
But it wasn't. In 2001, Golder was diagnosed with breast cancer for the third time. From the way that Golder Saft describes her mother, it is clear that Golder was a woman of limitless energy, a sheer force of nature whose inner power only multiplied under pressure. But her cancer shared those characteristics.
Golder received treatment that included chemotherapy, but the cancer spread through her body. Still, Golder had beaten cancer twice, so there was reason to hope that she would do so again. "Plus, she was Cis Golder," Golder Saft says, "and no one and nothing was going to tell her to stop fighting, and she never, ever did."
But Golder's spirit couldn't overcome the betrayal of her body. She died on May 25, 2006 — her 54th wedding anniversary. Although Golder Saft allows that the last six months of her mother's life were "very difficult," that's all she wants to say about that time.
Marilyn Yarmark doesn't want to talk about her loved one's death, either. She uses almost the same words as Golder Saft when she describes the days and months after Haley's death. "Very shocking," Yarmark says, "and incredibly difficult."
Yarmark says that she did not feel anger towards the teenager who drove the car that killed her granddaughter. He pled guilty to involuntary manslaughter, reckless driving and other offenses. According to The Morning Call, his sentence included probation, surrendering his driver's license, serving time in the Bucks County juvenile detention center, 200 hours of community service and attending rehabilitative programs. "He was being reckless, but he did not kill her on purpose," Yarmark says. "He was a teenager, too, a very young person who made a terrible mistake. No, I did not have anger towards him."
Nor did Yarmark rage against God, asking why her granddaughter was taken at such a young age. Similarly, Golder Saft says that she didn't waste energy wondering why her mother had to suffer. Was there a plan? Did God have reasons? Was it bad luck, bad fate or bad biology? "What would be the point in asking why?" Golder Saft asks rhetorically. "Was God going to give me an answer? Of course not."
So when all of the hows are answered, the whys disregarded and the ifs exhausted, Yarmark and Golder Saft each moved on to the whats — as in "What now?" In both cases, the answer was the same: tzedakah. Yarmark established the Haley Jennifer Yarmark Memorial Fund, which is administered through Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia. In conjunction with Living Beyond Breast Cancer (LBBC), Golder Saft and her father created the Cis B. Golder Quality Of Life Grant.
Of course it's a noble thing to do, and there is a vast amount of need in the world. But why does giving money to strangers help those who have lost loved ones? What is it about establishing a fund that helps with the grieving and healing process?
"I'm not a social worker, but I think there is a feeling that at least they are making something good out of something terrible," says Rachel Gross, Federation's director of planned giving and endowments. "There is also a sense of control, in the sense that this is something real and tangible that people can do, when there is so much that can't be controlled about illness, accidents and death. And I also think that it comes from a place of wanting to help other people and ease their suffering."
This is most definitely the case with the Golder Grant. Women living with breast cancer receive up to $1,000 to help pay for medical expenses, child care, rent or mortgage, utilities and other necessities. Since the grant was established in 2008, more than $1 million has been distributed to women in the Delaware Valley, with Golder Saft and her father raising the funds.
Ask Golder Saft how she learned to fundraise and she answers that her parents taught her well. An only child, Golder Saft says that she was "a Federation baby" and her parents' "other child" was Federation itself. Both Cis and Robert Golder raised millions of dollars to support the Federation's work. More than that, Golder Saft says that her mother raised awareness about those in need. "When she was sick and in pain, her heart still turned to other people's suffering," Golder Saft says. "She said to us, 'I am lucky to be able to lie here in a nice bed and not have to worry about going to work or paying my bills. But what about the women who can't afford to do that? What do they do?' "
So when memorial donations for Golder poured into LBBC after her death, Golder Saft and her father knew exactly what to do with them. They worked with LBBC to format the provisions of the Golder Grant.
Here's how it works: Doctors, nurses and social workers nominate women in need. No proof of financial distress is required; the health care professionals act as guarantors. The Golder Grant committee reviews the requests once a month and provides money immediately. It also asks supermarkets for gift cards and utility companies to provide in-kind gifts. So enormous is the Golder Grant's impact that the Bringing Hope Home Foundation decided to match every $1,000 raised and let Golder Saft and Golder distribute the funds at their discretion.
In recognition of the work that Golder Saft and Golder have done, LBBC awarded them its highest honor, The Founders Award, at the organization's Butterfly Ball in October 2013. While deeply moved, Golder Saft said that something more important happened that night: They raised $100,000 to fund future Golder Grants.
The Haley Jennifer Yarmark Memorial Fund is a financially smaller but no less significant way of remembering Yarmark's granddaughter. The money is gifted to five different charities, each of which reflects the 17-year old's varied interests. "We give money to the Settlement Music School because Haley loved music," her grandmother explains. "The other charities have to do with social justice or women, children and families who are in need, because those are things that Haley was passionate about. I also sometimes give a donation to a family that has suffered a sudden loss, like we did with Haley. I know that pain. And I think Haley would want me to help people through it."

On another note i just wish saurik would fix UIsounds in winterboard. I miss all my custom text tones.
Those of you still having trouble with your Weather app here's what you need to do
1. Remove that tool you use to sync unsigned apps
2. Reboot
3. Open Cydia and go to Manage/Packages and at the top right near your status bar hit the "Simple" Button
4. Scroll down to find UIKit Tools and Reinstall it
5. when its done installing open iFile or an SSH or program like i-FunBox and delete these Files:
5. Reboot and Your Weather app should work
Just get another weather app problem solved
Edit: In case it wasn't implied the evasi0n update had not fixed my weather so I tried this method after and it works, rebooting now.. and it still works. Legit fix. Do it. [iPhone 5 6.1]
Finally....Ive tried doing everything almost then I deleted var/mobile/Library/Caches/com.apple.mobile.installation.plist and rebooted and now my weather icon works....So thanks djaquapimp Iphone 4S with newest evasi0n ...Siri worked fine for weather but I wanted the normal icon to work
I dont have pirated apps...why is weather still not working? And I tried to restore but I keep getting an error!....What do I do?

Branching can be an effective solution for managing change, enabling parallel development and improved productivity. But, working on a branch is a distraction and can decrease agility, productivity, and code robustness. Learn when the value of working on a branch outweighs the cost.
Branching is a source code management technique for enabling parallel development. When you branch, you create a code line that is essentially a copy of its parent. By keeping track of the ancestry of the new code line, you can identify what has changed since the branch point and apply changes from the branch to the parent code line and vice versa. A branch allows you to work on a variation of the code without immediately affecting—or being affected by—changes on the main code line. (Streamed Lines has a detailed description of other reasons for branching.)
Figure 1 illustrates some branching patterns. Assume that you are working on a main line, and you are scheduled to release version 1 in a week. At some point, you might decide that there are people on your team who can start working on a new feature for version 2 while the rest of the team finishes version 1. You can create a task branch, where a group of developers can work on the new code without interfering with the soon-to-be-released version 1. Once version 1 is ready to ship, you can create a release branch to deliver fixes for released software. In theory, the changes required to deliver the fix from a release branch will be smaller and more easily tested than if you were to attempt to deliver from the main development line. The team can address the problem to be fixed by committing changes to the branch without interfering with the work of the rest of team. You can then merge the task branch changes back into the main line so that everyone is working on one code stream again.
Without branching, it would be tricky for the team to work on two tasks at once. And, there are times when working on a branch can help you be more agile by enabling you to work around roadblocks and keep moving while other work is being completed. A branch allows you to get work done when your code and your processes make it difficult to make the related changes on the main code line.

Who Was Most Nervous to Perform at Grammys' Beatles Special?
Photo: Getty Images
By Sierra Marquina
Ryan and Ellen K. called Ken Ehrlich, producer of the Grammys and the The Beatles: The Night That Changed America – A Grammy Salute, which scored over 13 million viewers on Sunday night.
The special featured performances by everyone from Katy Perry, John Mayer, and Ed Sheeran to Keith Urban, John Legend, Pharrell, Imagine Dragons, and more.
Ken revealed it was easy to get the artists to participate, but "the only intimidation factor was [singing in front of Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr themselves]."
So which artist was the most nervous about performing the legends' songs?
"Honestly, I think Katy [Perry] was," Ken admits. "She was really concerned. I thought she killed on 'Yesterday,' I thought she really did a great job, but she was definitely kind of concerned about singing like the number one song in the history of music."
And understandably so!

Some say that a picture is worth a thousand words. With that thought in mind, we sent RA's photo team to The Amsterdam Dance Event, which is quickly becoming one of the most important conference/festival dates on the dance music calendar.
There's been a lot of talk about deepness lately in the world of electronic music, but hardly any attention paid to some of the originators of the sound. RA's Thomas D. Cox recently caught up with one of the most underappreciated—Rick Wade—to talk Theo Parrish, Kenny Dixon, Jr., booty bass and anime.
San Francisco producer Dave Aju's Open Wide was constructed solely from sounds taken from his mouth. And, believe it or not, it may just be one of the year's best debut albums. RA's Dave Stenton caught up with the man they sometimes call The Unorthodoctor to find out more.
Free of its hyper-local beginnings, dubstep DJs are now fighting the good fight worldwide. RA's Samuel Strang recently tracked down Benga, who will be hitting Turin's Club to Club Festival next month, to find out how it all happened this way.
Frankfurt-based Connaisseur has made a name for itself for it as the place for "minimal trance," but as RA's Eike Kühl tells it, the imprint (and its two sublabels) is much more than that.

NFL Draft > 2009 Prospects > QB > Matthew Stafford
Matthew Stafford Scouting Report

2009 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
Matthew Stafford, QB, Georgia
NFL scouts have been drooling over Stafford for years, and they will finally have a chance to snatch him up at the next level later this month. As a freshman playing part-time in 2006, Stafford struggled, throwing seven touchdowns and 13 interceptions. But he raised his game in 2007, tossing 19 touchdowns and cutting his interceptions down to 10. The pre-season No. 1 Georgia Bulldog did not live up to expectations in 2009, but Stafford still had a solid--if unspectacular--junior campaign, throwing for 3459 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 10 picks. He is so blessed with talent, however, that scouts are probably not too concerned with numbers. Stafford is a standout athlete with arm strength that is rarely seen in the ranks of college football. He can throw deep balls on a dime that most other quarterbacks would be embarrassed to even attempt. Perhaps the one knock of Stafford is his scrambling ability, but that should improve considering he possesses deceptive open-field speed. His pedestrian 40-yard-dash time does not jump off the page, yet he is unafraid--and quite capable--of tucking the ball away and running effectively with it. His decision-making has been called into question, but it's a result of his confidence that he can make any throw in the business. Stafford also enters the NFL with no off-the-field issues of any kind. He will be the first QB taken and there's a good chance he will go No. 1 overall to the Lions if they don't trade for Jay Cutler.

Prediction: 1st Round
He gaming ability is AMAZING. If your not impressed by what he can do, you don't know football. He can throw 80 yrds. i mean your gonna need that 80 yards in a tough situation. He can already out throw most of the NFL quaterbacks now.

Contributing to Accountancy's Reputation for Excellence
by Sarah Small
While his friends enjoyed their vacations from homework and classes during spring break, Brent Kerby '11 (2nd from left in photo), junior in accountancy, participated in a case competition with a team of other students from around the world. The team competed to learn and to gain approval from their sponsors. Ultimately they took first place in the competition.
Kerby traveled to Greece to participate in the International Student Business Forum, which is sponsored by Deloitte and the International Institute for Management Development, a prestigious business school in Switzerland. At the forum, he represented the University, the United States and Deloitte.
He was one of three Americans to attend the forum and was the first ILLINOIS student Deloitte has ever invited to participate. The other American students were from the University of Southern California and the University of Texas Austin.
"I got to meet all of these people from everywhere," Kerby said. "A lot of people knew what the University of Illinois was. They recognized the name and knew what a good school it was. This made me feel good."
The forum had 40 student participants who represented six continents; there were also about 20 Deloitte professionals from offices around the world.
"I actually got to meet everyone," Kerby said. "I built really great relationships with a lot of people. To make professional relations like that is really important."
During the first days of the forum the students participated in networking activities, visited historic sites in Athens and attended a lecture on case competition strategies. Finally each team received the case and were given only 12 hours to prepare solutions before presenting to a panel of judges, all Deloitte professionals.
Thanks to an education from ILLINOIS, Kerby had the most experience working with case competitions and took a leadership role on his team. Diversity reached a whole new level in this competition, because all of Kerby's teammates were from different countries. He said it required him to adapt quickly.
"The cultural difference was really interesting, very cool to learn," Kerby said. "I got to see what different cultures really value and what they bring to the team. We all have our different strong points."
He said the case was long and challenging, but his training from ILLINOIS helped make it more manageable, as did the help from a Deloitte professional assisting the team. Thanks to strong teamwork, his team earned the top prize and contributed further to ILLINOIS' reputation for excellence.
"Hopefully it opened the door for University of Illinois students to do it again," Kerby said. "I hope I represented the College well enough to make (Deloitte) want more University of Illinois students."

Old English giefan (W. Saxon) "to give, bestow; allot, grant; commit, devote, entrust," class V strong verb (past tense geaf, past participle giefen), from Proto-Germanic *gebanan (cf. Old Frisian jeva, Middle Dutch gheven, Dutch geven, Old High German geban, German geben, Gothic giban), from PIE *ghabh- "to take, hold, have, give" (see habit). It became yiven in Middle English, but changed to guttural "g" by influence of Old Norse gefa "to give," Old Danish givæ. Meaning "to yield to pressure" is from 1570s.
Give in "yield" is from 1610s; give out is mid-14c., "publish, announce;" meaning "run out, break down" is from 1520s. Give up "surrender" is mid-12c. To give (someone) a cold seems to reflect the old belief that one could be cured of disease by deliberately infecting others. What gives? "what is happening?" is attested from 1940. Give-and-take (n.) is originally from horse racing (1769) and refers to races in which bigger horses were given more weight to carry, lighter ones less. General sense attested by 1778.

After Steven Sotloff Murder, Congress Demands a Vote on Obama's ISIS War
Get the latest news from 24/7 News on iHeartRadio
Leading lawmakers in charge of foreign policy reacted Tuesday to the reported beheading of American journalist Steven Sotloff by increasing their calls for more congressional involvement and oversight of President Obama's war on ISIS.
The latest apparent ISIS atrocity against an American citizen added to the congressional anger at the Obama administration for what many critics call an incomplete and unclear plan to confront the group both in Iraq and Syria, following President Obama's admission last week that "We don't have a strategy yet" for dealing with ISIS in Iraq and Syria. The two leaders of the House Foreign Affairs Committee said Tuesday that they want to lead the charge for more congressional oversight by holding hearings and forcing a vote on Obama's ISIS war within 60 days of the commencement of airstrikes in Iraq last month.
"The beheading of poor Mr. Sotloff really just brings back that we are dealing with a dangerous adversary…Congress needs to play a vital role and we are determined that the House Foreign Affairs Committee will lead the way," said Rep. Eliot Engel, ranking Democrat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee. "We believe that before the president can continue beyond 60 days of doing airstrikes in Iraq or anyplace else, he would have to come to Congress and get Congress's authority to continue."
Engel and the committee's chairman, Rep. Ed Royce, spoke to reporters via conference call from Israel on Tuesday. Royce said Secretary of State John Kerry, who will travel to the region this week, must come before Congress and present a strategy for defeating ISIS and put it up for a vote by the beginning of next month.
"We are scheduling a hearing upon our return and requesting the secretary of state to present a plan, a strategy focused on rolling back ISIS, defeating ISIS through the use of airstrikes and the support of those with common interests," Royce said. "We anticipate there will be a vote on authorization of the use of force for such a plan. That would come within the 60-day window."

Campylobacter infectionFood poisoning - campylobacter enteritis; Infectious diarrhea - campylobacter enteritis; Bacterial diarrhea
Campylobacter enteritis is an infection of the small intestine with Campylobacter jejuni bacteria.
Campylobacter enteritis is a common cause of intestinal infection. These bacteria are alsoone of the manycauses of traveler's diarrhea or food poisoning.
People most often get infected by eating or drinking food or water, often raw poultry, fresh produce, or unpasteurized milk.
A person can also be infected by close contact with infected people or animals.
Symptoms start 2 - 4 days after being exposed to the bacteria. They usually last 1 week, and may include:
- Cramping abdominal pain
- Fever
- Nausea and vomiting
- Watery diarrhea, sometimes bloody
Exams and Tests
The health care provider will perform a physical exam. The following tests may be ordered:
- Complete blood count with differential
- Stool sample testing for white blood cells
- Stool culture for Campylobacter jejuni
The infectionalmost alwaysgoes away on its own and does not need to be treated with antibiotics. Severe symptoms may respond to treatment with antibiotics such as ciprofloxacin and azithromycin.
The goal is to make you feel better and avoid dehydration. Dehydration means your body does not have as much water and fluids as it should.
These things may help you feel better if you have diarrhea:
- Drink 8 to 10 glasses of clear fluids every day. Water is best.
- Drink at least 1 cup of liquid every time you have a loose bowel movement.
- Eat small meals throughout the day instead of three big meals.
- Eat some salty foods, such as pretzels, soup, and sports drinks.
- Eat some high-potassium foods, such as bananas, potatoes without the skin, and watered-down fruit juices.
Outlook (Prognosis)
Most people recover in 5 - 8 days.
When a person's immune system does not work well, the Campylobacter infection may spread to the heart or brain.
Other problems that may occur are:
- Blood clots in the veins, called thrombophlebitis
- A form of arthritis called reactive arthritis
- A nerve problem called Guillain-Barre syndrome, which leads to paralysis (rare)
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call your health care provider if:
- You have diarrhea that continues for more than 1 week orcomes back.
- There is pus or blood inyour stools.
- You have diarrhea and are unable to drink fluids due to nausea or vomiting.
- You have a fever above 101°F, or your child has a fever above 100.4°F along with diarrhea.
- You have signs of dehydration (thirst, dizziness, light-headedness)
- You have recently traveled to a foreign country and developed diarrhea.
- Your diarrhea does not get better in 5 days (2 days for an infant or child), or gets worse
- Your child has been vomiting for more than 12 hours (in a newborn under 3 months you should call as soon as vomiting or diarrhea begins)
Learning how to prevent food poisoning can reduce the risk of this infection.
