Major League Baseball gave out their awards this week and the voting went pretty much as I thought it would.
Major League Baseball gave out their awards this week and the voting went pretty much as I thought it would. Rookie of the Year awards went to Mike Trout of the Angels and Bryce Harper of the Nationals. Both had very good seasons, (especially Trout) and the Most Valuable Player awards went to Miguel Cabrera of the Tigers and Buster Posey of the Giants. Both led their teams to the World Series. Cabrera was the first hitter to win the Triple Crown since Carl Yastrzemski in 1967. Posey came back from a serious leg injury in 2011, to have a fine 2012 season, and played on his second World Series Championship Team. The Cy Young award s went to David Price of the Rays and R. A. Dickey of the Mets.
These players no doubt deserved the award, and there could easily be made a case for each recipient. The MVP award has become an award of numbers of late and often the player who puts up the biggest numbers offensively has a good chance of winning the award. I think that could often be the case but not necessarily should be the only factor. For instance, in 1987, Andre Dawson of the Chicago Cubs won the MVP award even though the Cubs finished in last place. The point being how valuable was he? They would have finished in last place even without him, wouldn't they? In the past there have been winners who were good players, who put up good numbers that were less impressive than other players, but their teams won and the others didn't win a pennant. Phil Rizzuto, who had only seven home runs in 1950, and Nellie Fox, who had only two home runs in 1959, come to mind of those type of players who were most valuable, although not necessarily the best hitter. Maybe there should be a best hitter award as well, because sometimes the best hitter is not always the most valuable player.

David Folkenflik
Geraldo Rivera of Fox News has described NPR's David Folkenflik as "a really weak-kneed, backstabbing, sweaty-palmed reporter." Others have been kinder. The Columbia Journalism Review, for example, once gave him a "laurel" for reporting that immediately led the U.S. military to institute safety measures for journalists in Baghdad.
Based in New York City, Folkenflik is the media correspondent for NPR News. His stories and analyses are broadcast on the network's newsmagazines, such as All Things Considered, Morning Edition, and Here & Now, and are featured on NPR's website and mobile platforms. Folkenflik's reports cast light on the stories of our age, the figures who shape journalism and the tectonic shifts affecting the news industry. He profiled the Las Vegas columnist who went bankrupt fending off a libel lawsuit from his newspaper's new owner; conducted the first interview with New York Times executive editor Dean Baquet after his appointment; and chronicled how the demands of technology have forced the press corps to change how it covers presidential primaries.
Folkenflik is the author of Murdoch's World: The Last of the Old Media Empires. The Los Angeles Times called Murdoch's World "meaty reading... laced with delicious anecdotes" and the Huffington Post described it as "the gift that keeps on giving." Folkenflik is also editor of Page One: Inside the New York Times and the Future of Journalism. His work has appeared in such publications as the Washington Post, Politico Magazine, Newsweek International, the National Post of Canada, and the Australian Financial Review. Business Insider has called Folkenflik one of the 50 most influential people in American media.
Folkenflik joined NPR in 2004 after more than a decade at the Baltimore Sun, where he covered higher education, national politics, and the media. He started his professional career at the Durham (N.C.) Herald-Sun. Folkenflik served as editor-in-chief at the Cornell Daily Sun and graduated from Cornell with a bachelor's degree in history.
A four-time winner of the Arthur Rowse Award for Press Criticism from the National Press Club, Folkenflik has received numerous other recognitions, including the inaugural 2002 Mongerson Award for Investigative Reporting on the News and top honors from the National Headliners Club and the Society of Professional Journalists. He was the first Irik Sevin Visiting Fellow at Cornell and speaks frequently across the country. He often appears as a media analyst for television and radio programs in the U.S., the U.K., Canada, Australia and Ireland. Folkenflik lives with his wife, who is the senior director for original content at Audible (wholly owned by Amazon), and children in New York City.

City Academy High School in St. Paul Minnesota opened its doors in 1992. Its founders, all veteran public school teachers, had tried but failed to create new programs for struggling students in their own schools. They were convinced these kids would thrive in a small school with rigorous instruction and caring educators. As the nation's first publically funded, privately run charter school, City Academy helped launch an extraordinary movement that has grown to 5,600 charter schools. NPR's Claudio Sanchez has the second of two reports.
CLAUDIO SANCHEZ, BYLINE: When Melinda Gonzales enrolled in City Academy, she remembers walking down a tree-lined street in east St. Paul past a public park and a row of homes, looking for the school, and then not knowing what to make of the bunker-like building it was in when she finally found it.
MELINDA GONZALES: It's not a school. It's a rec center - a lot of folding tables and folding chairs. There weren't, you know, big computer labs. And I kind of wasn't sure how it was going to work.
SANCHEZ: That was 20 years ago. Melinda was 15. Her mother had died a few years earlier. Her father wasn't around. So, Melinda had moved in with her older sister. Life was tough.
GONZALES: I had issues attending school 'cause of we moved a lot, and I just couldn't keep up with what was going on in school. And really, nobody seemed to notice when I wasn't there.
SANCHEZ: City Academy was different.
GONZALES: There was just kind of this sense of like, yeah, we're here to help you, not to kind of hold you down. We're here to show you that you can do all this on your own.
SANCHEZ: For years, Melinda says she felt held down. No one at her old school had ever talked to her about college or a career. At City Academy, that's all teachers talked about.
GONZALES: That just was amazing to me, that you could, you know, learn something in a book and then, you know, say, oh yeah, we're going to go there and we're going to look at an example of that or you're going to touch it or you're going to be a part of that or you're going to meet someone who does that for a living. And for me who grew up on the east side of St. Paul in a very just kind of, very small box of life, just going out to art institutes and the capital and history centers, it was like, yeah, this is learning.
SANCHEZ: Melinda went on to get a degree in education. City Academy these days takes in teenagers who are still being talked out of college, kids who've repeatedly failed Minnesota's basic skills test and are so far behind, they're unlikely to graduate. Some have been incarcerated. But that doesn't matter to the school's founder, a veteran high school teacher with a soft spot for troubled kids.
MILO CUTTER: My name is Milo Cutter and right now I'm, and have been for the last 20 years, teaching director at City Academy.
SANCHEZ: Cutter, a tall, intense woman with a mop of white hair, had grown frustrated at her old school where kids dropped out in droves. It was around that time, the late 1980s, that a group in Minneapolis-St. Paul called The Citizens League had published an influential report calling for major school reforms. It supported a push by state lawmakers to create so-called outcome-based schools, later called charter schools. Cutter saw an opportunity. She would open a school for kids who were lost, abandoned, forgotten.
CUTTER: They were older students and, as most people are aware, that's not a high-priority group. These were totally out-of-school students - some left by choice, some were actively encouraged, and some were forbidden to cross the threshold ever again.
SANCHEZ: Opponents argued that a publically funded, privately run charter school like City Academy would take money away from traditional public schools. Cutter had no problem with that.
CUTTER: That was not the district's money. The taxpayers put in that money to educate students. The money belongs to the student.
SANCHEZ: City Academy opened with a tiny budget and 53 students. Twenty years later, it has twice as many kids, almost all low income. Most are Mong, Latino and black. After a year or two, the pride in what they've accomplished, says Cutter, is priceless.
CUTTER: You can see it physically on the faces of students when it's their choice. This is your school and you chose it. And that gives power.
SANCHEZ: Their education, says Cutter, now has a purpose. That was the idea says Ember Reichgott Junge. She's the former Minnesota state senator who authored the first charter school law in the country.
EMBER REICHGOTT JUNGE: What chartering did was make the public school system more responsive to parents and children and families because they allowed someone other than the district school system to deliver public education. They could take their customers for granted, and I think that's why Milo was finding that they weren't really open to doing new things because they didn't have to.
SANCHEZ: Although the nation's second largest teachers union had come out in favor of charters as early as 1988, Junge says unions in Minnesota were totally opposed, warning that charter schools would turn kids into guinea pigs.
JUNGE: I remember back in '91, the Minnesota Education Association used that very word - guinea pigs. I was so offended by that, that anyone would think that providing an opportunity for a child was somehow a bad thing or that they were being experimented upon.
SANCHEZ: A lot has changed in 20 years. This fall, charter schools in Minnesota will enroll about 38,000 students - 5 percent of the state's total K through 12 population. Union opposition has faded, in part because teachers in traditional public schools aren't happy with the status quo either. Louise Sundin is former president of the Minneapolis Federation of Teachers.
LOUISE SUNDIN: We're finding a lot of very talented teachers who are so frustrated that they feel they're not really teaching anymore.
SANCHEZ: Sundin helped create the Minnesota Guild of Public Charter Schools, the nation's first union-funded group with the power to authorize charters.
SUNDIN: I can see such a charter school movement that embraces teachers as professionals, not as cogs in a wheel or as expendable employees, places where teachers are in charge.
SANCHEZ: At least in Minnesota, says Sundin, most teachers have realized charters - like city academy - can empower them too. Claudio Sanchez, NPR News.

Watch Chilling Video of Woman Hiring Hitman to Kill Her Husband
Julia Charlene Merfeld has been caught trying to make sure death did her and her husband 'part.
The 21-year-old woman from Muskegon, Michigan was caught on camera trying to hire an undercover officer she thought was a hit man to kill her husband.
On the video, Merfeld gives some insight into what led to her homicidal decision:
When I first decided to do this … it's not that we weren't getting along. You know, I didn't have to worry about the judgment of my family, I didn't have to worry about breaking his heart, all that stuff like this. It's, like, how I got a clean getaway."
Merfeld, who stood to inherit her 27-year-old hubby's $400,000 life insurance policy, planned to pay the assassin $50,000, which she would give in weekly $9,000 installments.
She has since pleaded guilty to solicitation to murder. Her husband has surprisingly asked she not be given any jail time. She'll be sentenced at the end of the month.

Q: What's inside the Celine shopping bag?
A: A Phantom style bag in a ridiculously bright yellow colour that confronted me in the Ngee Ann City branch of Celine, rising like excalibur on a raised column and demanding attention.
I have been craving a yellow back for about a year. I saw a girl at an event with a yellow Mini Luggage and thought it was so beautiful. Bright Celine's are however incredibly hard to come by - in Dubai any luggage or phantom bag has an 8 month waiting list - so when I saw this I acted fast. Or rather the other half did as this was a beautiful gift :)
It's not a shade for everyone and not for everyday. That yellow shade (aptly called Sun) needs to be offset by white/blue/green clothes and is likely to clash in a bad way with anything else. The Phantom shape is full of drama with it's floppy sides that extend out - and I always wear them out - so when coupled with the bright colour it's a slightly attention seeking bag. But I am looking forward to wearing it this summer....I am thinking white dresses, white pencil skirts, white jeans....basically I am thinking a lot of white clothes and a bright, bright bag! :)
Here's an outfit of the day for you featuring said bag. Ideally the black blazer would have been either:
a) Not worn (and it wasn't all day but was when I started out for the day from the hotel); and
b) If worn, in navy and not black.
Blame my last minute packing.... :)
The skirt, by the way, is new. It's from Topshop and a really pretty green toned jacquard print that also comes lined for added comfort. It's a bit too short and flared (my skater style dress comment from the other day rings in my ears here!) but it was so humid that I didn't really care. Ideally I would have loved to wear this with, boots, tights, a sheer shirt and long black jacket....but I didn't so here we are :)
Shirt: Zara
Skirt: Topshop - Link!
Sunglasses: House of Harlow
Bag: Celine
This was obviously my main souvenir but I did hit Sephora (once) and Watsons (many times) to get a few bits and pieces. These are pictured below and the stars of the show are definitely the lashes (LOVE) and the SK-II Essence which promises the earth at a high price. According to the sales assistant it "gets rid of spots, evens skin tone, moisturises, everything...". Ok... I am very happy to test it out and see if it does "everything"!
My favourite purchases however are some tacky animal "lamps" to add to my lighting table. £2 a pop.
Seriously, I love these :)
Hope you have had a great week and see you all soon!

Updated to the 3.0 version release this month is Stackato 3.0 from ActiveState. This private Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) is designed to give software application development professionals a route to getting applications to market faster and improve return on (cloud) investment.
Generally used by Agile programmers, Stackato provides developers with a deployment platform in their own private datacenter or on a virtual private cloud. It makes it "easy to develop" in any environment, plus opens up options to deploy and manage applications on any cloud.
Stackato 3.0, currently in Beta, includes a good group of changes and enhancements such as: a full merge with Cloud Foundry v2 trunk, more powerful and efficient application containers via Docker, Activity Streams for real-time communication and collaboration among team members, and new dashboards for better visibility into the management of the system.
There is also a rewritten web management console for improved performance and usability, in-place upgrades, native auto-scaling support on OpenStack and CloudStack, as well as native support for Amazon RDS.
According to the ActiveState Stackato team, "Built on Cloud Foundry v2, Stackato 3.0 gives you all of the benefits of working with an open source technology, but is an enterprise grade, commercially-supported private PaaS solution and it takes only minutes to set up."

Short review: Over all the site wasn't too bad. However, it isn't very user friendly if you're looking for a specific site. If you're just browsing, then it's great, but if you're looking for something specifically, then it is a little confusing to navigate. Over all though it wasn't too bad. There is a large amount of content, even if it's not always what you're looking for. Again, if you're just browsing, with nothing in mind, it's great.
Content Amount: The content was good. There was a fairly large amount on the specific site. The home page as a whole does have an extremly large amount of content so that is good. There are different sites to go to and they all have a fair amount of content on them.

The Profiler
I've often thought doctors — and maybe most professions — do better at differentiation than engineers do. Almost no one would go to a podiatrist for a head cold. But it seems all too often engineers get lumped together, at least by broad strokes. I'm an electrical engineer, but you don't want me telling you how to wire up a generator or a commercial air conditioner. I'm not that kind of electrical engineer.
However, as someone who develops a lot of embedded systems, I find that people often ask me about things that aren't directly related to embedded but maybe are related tangentially. In particular, I get a lot of questions related to performance.
I think that many programmers today don't get a chance to work at the "bare metal" level, and if you really want to squeeze out performance, there's no substitute for understanding and exploiting the actual hardware available to you.
Of course, if you work with the tiny processors I often use, you almost have no choice. But even embedded systems now often work with C or C++ and insulate you from the direct control of the hardware.
Don't get me wrong. Most of the time, a compiler will generate code that is good enough. In fact, I would guess that a compiler overall generates better code than a human on significant programs. Even if your skill level is very high, the compiler tirelessly applies its best code generation. So even the places where you might beat it will get swamped out by the places where you didn't do your best.
However, it is well known that usually only a small percentage of your program accounts for the lion's share of the program's execution time. If you can bring your human intelligence to bear on that small percentage, sometimes it can have big payoffs.
This is especially true because the biggest payoffs of all are things that compilers can't do. Consider, for example, building a table that relates strings to an integer key. You can write a linear search and optimize it by hand (or let the compiler do it). It will never be as fast as even a poorly written hash table search. Picking the right algorithm is almost always the best optimization, and one that compilers are not very good at, at least in general. Humans, on the other hand, can apply heuristics (even if they don't know exactly what the heuristics are) very easily and often pick a good alternative among many.
There are at least three things that are crucial to this kind of optimization:
- Understand the execution profile of your software.
- Understand what the compiler is doing.
- Know the processor and system architecture.
I put these in rough order. If you really know what part of your program is consuming the most time (or whatever resource you want to optimize for), you might be able to fix it without worrying much about number 2 and number 3. Changing a slow bubble sort for a fast quick sort might make things better with just the change of a function call.
However, more often you need to understand the compiler's code and your options for the specific system. But first things first. To satisfy number 1, you need a profiler or you'll have to instrument your code. Instrumenting your code is the process of adding statements to tell you about the profile resource (usually execution time). This could be as simple as putting time stamps in a log to show when key subroutines start and finish. On small systems, you might toggle a digital output to read a time on an oscilloscope.
However, if your system supports a profiler, that will be easier. If you are running gcc under Linux, you can use the
-pg option to have gcc add profiling instrumentation to your code automatically. When you compile the code with
-pg, it doesn't appear to do anything different. You run your program as usual. However, the program will now silently write a file named gmon.out during execution. This file contains execution statistics you can display using
gprof output contains a lot of documentation. The listing below shows a session, compiling, running, and profiling a simple program that computes factorials using two different methods. The
a_fact function uses a loop to compute a factorial while the
b_fact function uses recursion.

Each entry in this table consists of several lines. The line with the index number at the left hand margin lists the current function. The lines above it list the functions that called this function, and the lines below it list the functions this one called. This line lists: index A unique number given to each element of the table. Index numbers are sorted numerically. The index number is printed next to every function name so it is easier to look up where the function is in the table. % time This is the percentage of the 'total' time that was spent in this function and its children. Note that due to different viewpoints, functions excluded by options, etc, these numbers will NOT add up to 100%. self This is the total amount of time spent in this function. children This is the total amount of time propagated into this function by its children. called This is the number of times the function was called. If the function called itself recursively, the number only includes non-recursive calls, and is followed by a '+' and the number of recursive calls. name The name of the current function. The index number is printed after it. If the function is a member of a cycle, the cycle number is printed between the function's name and the index number. For the function's parents, the fields have the following meanings: p self This is the amount of time that was propagated directly from the function into this parent. children This is the amount of time that was propagated from the function's children into this parent. called This is the number of times this parent called the function '/' the total number of times the function was called. Recursive calls to the function are not included in the number after the '/'. name This is the name of the parent. The parent's index number is printed after it. If the parent is a member of a cycle, the cycle number is printed between the name and the index number. If the parents of the function cannot be determined, the word '<spontaneous>' is printed in the 'name' field, and all the other fields are blank. For the function's children, the fields have the following meanings: self This is the amount of time that was propagated directly from the child into the function. children This is the amount of time that was propagated from the child's children to the function. called This is the number of times the function called this child '/' the total number of times the child was called. Recursive calls by the child are not listed in the number after the '/'. name This is the name of the child. The child's index number is printed after it. If the child is a member of a cycle, the cycle number is printed between the name and the index number. If there are any cycles (circles) in the call graph, there is an entry for the cycle-as-a-whole. This entry shows who called the cycle (as parents) and the members of the cycle (as children.) The '+' recursive calls entry shows the number of function calls that were internal to the cycle, and the calls entry for each member shows, for that member, how many times it was called from other members of the cycle.

Copying and distribution of this file, with or without modification, are permitted in any medium without royalty provided the copyright notice and this notice are preserved. Index by function name [3] a_fact [2] b_fact [1] main
This is a simple example (you can find the source file in the online listings) and the result isn't surprising. The loop version is faster than the recursive version (note, I ran the loops a million time to make the execution time more apparent). What's the effect of using the
-O1 optimization when compiling?
On my computer, it made the
a_fact subroutine slightly slower (0.16 seconds) and the
b_fact subroutine faster (0.15). I expect the 0.01 second different in
a_fact is probably just a difference from run to run. But the
b_fact subroutine clearly prefers the
-O1 option. If you try the
-O2 option, you'll get a surprise because the program's very simple to highly optimize.
Of course, if your program has any interactive input or device input, that will perturb functions that have to wait for that input. You may want to profile a non-interactive version of your program or call key functions from a test bed instead of your real program.
gprof you can identify functions that are called often and those that take a lot of time to execute. Then you can focus on the areas that are best to improve. If you are on a highly embedded system, you might have to be more creative. As I mentioned earlier, you might resort to triggering outputs to read with an oscilloscope or printing time stamps, but however you do it, knowing what's happening is the first step.
Sometimes you can identify a simple fix. In my example, I can simply pick the function that works best. Or I could investigate another algorithm or write more efficient C code. If that doesn't work? I'll talk about that next time.

Operation Mastercutor was a battle fought on September the 6th, R. 2,011 in the space near and around New Prussia. The Inquistadorial Sixth Armada under the command of Duchess Angelica Del Montero was ambushed and defeated by the Neo-Prussian fleet under the command of Sky Marshal Ritt. It marked the first battle of the Prussian-Monarchial Conflict. The battle saw Duchess Angelica captured, effectively giving the Neo-Prussians a head start in the war, although it came at the price of having to sacrifice most outer bases and heavy losses among the navy's frigates.
After a failed attempt by a Brittanian diplomat to force the Neo-Prussian Empire into the Immortal Alliance, the Inquistadores were quick to respond, launching an invasion along with the VoL and the Brittanian League. Wanting to claim victory for herself, Duchess Angelica launched Operation Exorcism, dividing the Prussian Empire into three sectors that would all be attacked simultaneously and aiming for a quick deployment on the Prussians' outer bases. However, the Prussians were well-prepared, exploding their abandoned bases and killing most of the Inquistadores who had been sent down to capture them in the process, before ambushing the scattered Armada with their ships.
The Inquistadores fielded a large number of Dragonhead cruisers, expecting only light resistance from the Neo-Prussians' Dominator and Eagle frigates. However, the battle saw the first deployment of several of the until that point unknown Neo-Prussian Mastercutor cruisers.
During the boarding action, the Inquistadores relied on their heavy pilots, Inquistadores and light marines, while the Prussians utilized Miliz, ripperbots, farce-wielding pilots and Wolves.
Unable to face the full might of the Armada, the Prussian Fleet concentrated their attacks on sector 1. Seeing this as an excellent opportunity to trap and corner the fleet in turn, Duchess Angelica ordered all of her ships to converge on the sector. However, it turned out to be only a diversion, as a small Prussian detachment commanded by Sky Marshal Ritt, Sir Bragallot and Lt. Myrna appeared and quickly took out Angelica's communications, ensuring she'd be on her own for this fight.
Unable to escape the faster enemy ships, both the Crucifix (Angelica's ship) and its escort ship the Lady Vega (commanded by captain Roberto) turned around to make a stand. Ritt's Dominator quickly engaged the Crucifix, while Myrna's Eagle and Sir Bragallot's Mastercutor attacked the Lady Vega. The frigates, as expected, had a hard time denting the Dragonheads. Myrna tried to send her men to board the Lady Vega, but her Miliz were quickly beaten back. Both the Eagle and the Dominator were quickly destroyed, and Sky Marshal Ritt killed, but not before dealing substantial damage to both enemy cruisers. Myrna survived and continued to help out by piloting a Mobhunter.
Soon after their destruction, a Brittanian ironclad gunboat commanded by Sir Martin Starr came to the Duchess' aid. The tide was turning grim for the Prussians, until faulty communication on the Inquistadores' part caused the Lady Vega to fly into the Crucifix's missiles. Almost immediately after this, the Mastercutor destroyed the Lady Vega's bridge, killing captain Roberto in the process. As both sides utilized all the firepower they could muster, the Mastercutor got caught in between the Ironclad and the Crucifix.
As the Mastercutor moved to take out the Ironclad, Angelica sent her marines to board the Mastercutor. As they were beaten back, the Mastercutor got close enough to the Ironclad to fire its close range turrets, destroying it utterly. Meanwhile, Myrna and the remaining Mobhunter pilots blasted their way into the Crucifix, going for the Duchess, who fought on even though she only had a few men left, but was ultimately captured by Myrna when the Mastercutor's remaining crew also boarded the Crucifix.
Operation Mastercutor left the Sixth Armada scattered and in disarray, though they were able to regroup and set up bases in the ashes of the Prussians' old bases, under the guidance of Admiral Santiago. Most of the Dragonheads in sector 1 had been lost, but the biggest problem was the capture of Duchess Angelica, which gave the Prussians a valuable hostage whom they could use to keep the Immortal Alliance at bay. The Prussian fleet had lost many frigates and secretly sailed to Avalon to be repaired. For her outstanding performance, Myrna was promoted to Sky Marshal. In the months following the battle, hostilities were sparse, though Prussian Ghost Division often harassed the landed Immortal forces.
The Crucifix was played by Warhead, the Lady Vega by Ham701 and the Brittanians by FISH!!!
On the Neo-Prussian side, Bragallot, TheBlackDog and Robotmonkey commanded the Mastercutor, Eagle, and Dominator respectively.

Sign reads: "Soy poderosa and my voice matters because i am a mother. a teacher. a figther. an activist and a strong latina"
Latinas are making sure that their voices and their stories are being heard. We are not silent. A perfect example of the determination Latinas have towards personal growth, justice to all communities around all issues not just Reproductive Health, is Cynthia Brito. She is an organizer at the Latin@ Youth Action League. Her dedication to lifting Latina voices in Illinois has made her the activist of the month.
Read her story here:
I am powerful. Through my lived knowledge, experience, and activism, I am an agent of change. We all have a transformative power to change society, but as Latinas, our unique lived experience amplifies our ability to understand society through a powerful lens.
As a young girl, I experienced molestation and assault. My life was filled with years of violence and abuse. My first experience with racism occurred when I moved from the city to the suburbs at the age of 9. The combination of violence, racism, and lack of support for young Latinas set the stage for a destructive path in my life. As time went on, I was involved in several abusive relationships, with the most severe of these relationships nearly ending my life.
I became a mom at the age of 17 and again at 19. As a teen mom in the suburbs I experienced negative interactions at an individual and institutional level. I became aware that I was not only looked down up for being a young mother, but also for being a Latina mother. It was through this lived experience that my perspective of the world began to unfold.
I'm a co-founder of the Latin@ Youth Action League (L@YAL), a fairly new organization in DuPage County. Our work focuses primarily on issues the Latino community faces in the suburbs of DuPage County. Much of our recent work has focused on undocumented youth. We have held rallies, workshops, and provided access to resources to many youth in the area. More recently, we decided to organize an event around Latina reproductive health issues.
I first learned about the National Latina Institute for Reproductive Health (NLIRH) while I was a teaching assistant for a Latino Studies class at the University of Illinois at Chicago. The following year, I taught my own course: Latinas in the United States. The NLIRH helped students become aware of the complex dynamics in the issues Latinas face around reproductive health. I also successfully completed the E-LOLA Webinar and organized a Cafecito in collaboration with HABLAMOS, a Latina organization in Elmhurst College. Many factors interconnect to create the current political backlash against Latinas reproductive rights, and NLIRH is a powerful agent that brings them to light.
Thank you Cynthia for all the work you do, and will continue to do, for our community. We are honored and excited to work with you on many things to come. Congratulations on being this months activist of the month!
Check out the work NLIRH is doing in other states by liking our facebook and maybe YOU can be our next poderosa profile.

Tax breaks 'may lift rent standard'
Extra tax breaks should be offered to landlords who sign up to a national scheme to raise standards in the private rented sector, housing experts have said.
A report by the Chartered Institute of Housing (CIH) and the Resolution Foundation (RF) said incentives for landlords would encourage them to improve the maintenance and management of their properties.
Private landlords currently receive around £7 billion in tax allowances each year, including for repairs and maintenance, but there is no incentive to carry out work above the minimum standard, the report claims.
Landlords should be offered tax breaks to encourage them to improve the maintenance and management of their properties, according to a new report
The report also warns that more effective regulation is needed to tackle rogue landlords and calls for letting agents to be banned from charging tenants fees.
The CIH, which represents housing professionals, and the RF, which campaigns for better living standards for low to modest income families, said a third of privately-rented homes failed to meet modern standards.
The private rented sector has doubled in size since 1992 to four million households and now accounts for 18% of all households in England, they said.
Meanwhile, the percentage of private renters aged 25 to 34 rose from 31% in 2008/09 to 45% in 2012/13.
CIH chief executive Grainia Long said: "This Government has focused on measures to boost home ownership, but with more and more people living in the private rented sector - including more older people, more families with children and more vulnerable people from the housing waiting list - it's vital that we look at new ways to raise standards.
"The cost of housing means that for many people, the private rented sector is the only option, but too many of them are having to put up with poor standards and insecurity.
"Ultimately, we want people to have a good choice of housing at a price they can afford, so we need to make private rent a better option."
RF deputy chief executive Vidhya Alakeson added: "Many landlords already benefit from generous public subsidy but, while many of them are responsible, not all of them give anything in return.
"By introducing the principle of getting 'something for something' from this investment we could ensure that housing is improved and works better for both tenants and landlords. Government should incentivise those who work to raise their game in order to improve the overall standards of private renting."
Housing minister Brandon Lewis said: "We're determined to create a bigger, better private rented sector in which landlords and tenants alike can be confident that they'll get a fair deal.
"This includes investing £1 billion in our Build to Rent scheme, to up to 10,000 newly-built homes specifically for private rent, publishing our new How to Rent guide so tenants are better informed and know what to expect from their landlord, and requiring letting agents to publish full details of the fees they charge tenants.
"But we are also avoiding imposing excessive regulation that would push up rents, reduce choice for tenants and strangle the industry in red tape and regulation.
"For example, the experience of Scotland shows that banning letting agents from charging fees to tenants has just resulted in higher rents."

'Barker Universal' electric massage apparatus, United States, 1913-1914
The 'Barker Universal' is a handheld electric massage apparatus. Like many early massaging devices, it was used for a range of physical and emotional complaints. Electromechanical vibrators such as this became consumer products in the second half of the 1800s. Such devices originally treated women diagnosed as "hysterical". They were initially only used in doctors' surgeries. The sexual use of such machines was not overtly publicised. However, it was a major part of their appeal. This example is made of aluminium. It comes with five interchangeable heads. It was probably originally ordered for home use via a mail order company. The international nature of this product indicates its wide appeal. It was made in the US, supplied by James Barker of London, and patented worldwide in the early 1900s.

Toronto Maple Leafs force Game 7
Toronto Maple Leafs defenceman Dion Phaneuf, left, reacts after scoring past Boston Bruins goalie Tuuka Rask, not shown, as Bruins forwards David Krejci, right, looks on during third period NHL hockey playoff action in Toronto on Sunday, May 12, 2013.
Photograph by: THE CANADIAN PRESS/Nathan Denette, Canada.com
TORONTO — Every season waits. It waits for the end because the end always comes — and for almost every playoff team it ends with grudging handshakes, glassy stares, the pain that creeps back through your body when the adrenaline is gone.
Some games wait, too. Game 6 of the first-round series between the Boston Bruins and the Toronto Maple Leafs was like that — it started slow and then accelerated like a stone rolling downhill one way, up the canyon wall and then downhill the other. Through two periods there was no score and the tension built, a spring, wound up play by play.
And then in the third, with their season waiting for them for a second straight game, the Leafs were the better team when they had no other palatable choice. They were better than the former Stanley Cup champs, full stop. They earned their bounces and James Reimer, brilliant again with 30 saves, earned every one.
So, after a 2-1 win at the Air Canada Centre, the Leafs and Bruins will play Game 7 Monday night in Boston.
Who expected this? As in Toronto's Game 5 win, less than two minutes into the third the Leafs got loose on the rush. This time it was Dion Phaneuf who found Nazem Kadri; Kadri wheeled into the slot and his wrist shot was deflected by the captain, who had thundered to the net. Phaneuf took a huge amount of heat for his mistake that led to the overtime goal by David Krejci in Game 5; this time his stone face cracked into a huge primal happy howl.
And unlike Game 5, the Leafs didn't stop skating, weren't paralyzed. They kept attacking and midway through the period a Cody Franson shot bounced around in front as James van Riemsdyk occupied several Bruins at once and Phil Kessel popped home the rebound — 2-0 Leafs, just like Game 5.
The fans chanted "Thank you, Seguin!" and though Milan Lucic made it 2-1 with 25.5 seconds left, the lead held and Kessel had his second game-winning goal of the series. For the second straight game, the Leafs made their season wait.
This is the same core of Bruins that won three Game 7s on the way to the Stanley Cup two years ago, but it's also the same core of Bruins — and the same goalie — who blew a 3-0 lead in the series and a 3-0 lead in Game 7 to Philadelphia the year before. Experience, in hockey, can work both ways.
Toronto did it without centre Tyler Bozak, who was not announced as a scratch minutes before the game, but was then listed as out with an undisclosed injury when the official lineups were released. He barely touched the puck in the pre-game warmup, and seemed to be favouring his right arm. He played 21:27 in Game 5, the most of any Leafs forward.
It was a much more cautious start — no chariot racing, no odd-man rushes. The Bruins pinned the Leafs in their own zone at the very beginning, and once or twice after, in the same way they did in Game 5′s forearm-to-the-throat third period. But Toronto managed to get out and inhale again.
It was similar, but there were differences, too. Game 5 was an elimination game and the Leafs played the first 42 minutes without trepidation. The Bruins played those 42 minutes without urgency, either. This time, it felt like for the first time in the series, both teams were playing like there was something to lose. Perhaps 2010 is in Boston's head, after all.
But the chances came. In the second period, Bruins defenceman Johnny Boychuk hit a post — he had previously hit the crossbar in the third period of Game 5 — and in the midst of a series of chances, Patrice Bergeron went to wrap the puck around the net and appeared to have room, but Reimer dove across his crease like a man diving on a grenade.
In Game 5, the game was scoreless when Reimer kicked out a pad to rob Bergeron; it happened again. The scoresheet stayed clean.
Then the game began to find a rhythm and the pace accelerated. Tuukka Rask got Kessel with a glove save; van Riemsdyk missed a puck on the doorstep. Seguin threw a wrist shot on the rush at one end and Kessel did it at the other. They went into the third even, tight, wound like springs. Some games wait. The Leafs answered.
And so, Game 7. This is the truly undiscovered country, now — when Brad Marchand said before Game 5 that he thought Toronto was outplaying the Bruins since Game 1, he wasn't entirely wrong.
One numb-frozen nervous game to start this series and since then the Toronto Maple Leafs have belonged here, deserved this, come back and pulled the Bruins onto the brink with them. Game 7. The Garden. Every season waits.

JetBrains has this month revealed news detailing a "major release" of AppCode 3.0, the company's IDE for iOS/OS X development.
For those that need a basic reminder, AppCode 3 (as a total technology proposition) includes an "integrated" User Interface designer that works with the full component palette supported by iOS SDK.
For developing your application's UI, you can use either .xib or .storyboard formats.
With a brand new UI designer and enhanced "target management", AppCode 3.0 provides developers with a much more complete development experience.
Now included is the Reveal tool from Itty Bitty Apps. This is now integrated in AppCode via a plug-in to give more options in debugging iOS applications.
According to revealapp.com, "Reveal brings the power of tools like Firebug and Web Inspector to iOS developers. See your application's view hierarchy at runtime with advanced 2D and 3D visualisations. Debug view layout and rendering problems in seconds."
The IDE also includes many code-generation options for unit testing. In short, JetBrains says there is less switching between IDEs, and this means more productive coding.
Other important features include C++11 improvements; look-and-feel changes, such as hidden scrollbars and reworked keymaps; multiple carets and selections supported in the editor; new features 'Search everywhere' and 'Navigate to folder,' while 'Find in Path' now lets you search in string literals only or in comments only and a brand new built-in terminal.
