The Methods to Check on Your Property Taxes
In reality, there are a number of property owners who tell of having the experience of the high cost of property ownership and home ownership as a result of the fact that there often a high expense to pay for the Property Tax Texas that is levied for the ownership of the property. There has been seen an indication by the watch of the trends that these will always go on the high even as you stay committed to the payment of your mortgages. A number of homeowners and property owners in fact do not understand that in real sense they are supposed to pay less than they do and do not even have an idea how their taxes are calculated.
This as such makes them settle for the paying of the face value of the taxes as they have been assessed and they do not as well know that their property was way much over valued. The following are some of the tips that you will trust to enable you challenge your assessment and manage to save what you spend annually on your property taxes.
First and foremost, you need to understand the fact that you need to know the fact that a number of the local governments and authorities will send their assessment notices for property at the start of each year, these often coming in the first few months of every year. In this notice, you will find contacts that you may reach to in case you have any issues with the sent assessment of ctmi The same notice as well will get you the details that you need to make sure that you have followed so as to get all things right when it comes to the need to successfully file for the appeal and the timeframe you have for the filing of an appeal or making a protest if there be any. Ensure that for any kind of protests, you have these filed within the particular window period, which in most cases varies between six weeks in some areas and in others only two weeks, for in case it happens to lapse, then you will have to wait until the next year for you to protest your assessment. It is as well advisable that you have a good understanding of the way that your property is assessed in the given locality.
The next thing you need to think of is to make a request of the property tax card. When you will have had this, you need to make a review of this as well. In most cases, this is often included in the assessment but better still, you may as well have it from the online portal. Otherwise, get to the town hall office and request doe this from the local assessor's office. This card has all the relevant information on how the tax and the entire valuation of the property was done.

| 12.8°C Dublin
On the face of things, Roberto Martinez did not have much to turn his back on at Wigan. The club's training ground is in a place called Lower Standing and there's a rather harsh irony about that because Premier League clubs just don't stand much lower than Wigan on a number of key criteria.
This is the side with the lowest revenues in the Premier League (£43m) and the second lowest average attendances (16,812 -- better only than Blackpool) last season.
Yet Martinez has decided it is an environment he cannot walk away from. For loyalty and conviction, decisions don't get much bigger than his resolve to give his chairman Dave Whelan one more year. Though the decision has been characterised as one that was wrestled over, he has been fairly sure of his path for some days now.
"Over the last two years the chairman has been very supportive to me and loyal, and now I feel I need to be loyal and supportive back to him," Martinez said yesterday. But the really significant part of his explanation came second: "I haven't finished my job at Wigan Athletic. There is much work still to be done. I don't know how long that will take, but such is the belief that I have always had, I would only ever decide to move when the club is ready for a new manager."
It is hard to exaggerate the extent to which Martinez has overhauled Wigan, culturally and philosophically, in the two years since Whelan appointed him.
It is his utter conviction that the overhaul of the club is about to reap rewards which strengthened his resolve not to leave, when he weighed up Villa's overtures.
His inheritance was a club that had been blessed by Whelan's eye for a good manager. Paul Jewell and Steve Bruce had, between them, mined a rich seam of Central American talent, one of the last untapped areas of world football.
But Martinez wanted more for Wigan, a club that had been in his veins ever since he arrived from Spain as a player in 1995 and formed the 'Three Amigos' with Jesus Seba and Isidro Diaz.
He knew that it had always been Wigan against the world in rugby league territory and he wanted to build a philosophy at the club around that smallness.
"I want the players to be brave and I want them to believe that, yes, we are Wigan Athletic, this modest club in the Premier League, but we are a fantastic story," he told me amid the club's desperate relegation fight last month.
To fulfil that aim he has introduced what marketeers would call brand values, which are written on the giant sign that greets players when they walk up to the dressing rooms and the club's modest little Christopher Park training ground. It reads: 'Courage, Possession and Arrogance: Welcome to Work.' (© Independent News Service)

Hub on policy and advocacy, July 2013
Pharmacy groups speak at House caucus briefing; California provider status bill passes state Senate
Pharmacy groups speak at House caucus briefing
Provider status for pharmacists, legislation on medication therapy management (MTM), and a care transitions initiative were among the topics of a briefing hosted by the Congressional Community Pharmacy Caucus on June 6 in Room 122 of the Cannon House Office Building in Washington, DC.
Pharmacists' patient care services are "a very smart spend in Washington that pays off in a big way," Jonathan G. Marquess, PharmD, CDE, CPT, a member of the APhA Board of Trustees, said at the briefing as part of his example of an elevator speech for provider status. "Patients need to have access to pharmacists' services both on the federal and the state levels but also within these employer groups all across the country."
As the hour-long briefing began, Rep. Austin Scott (R-GA), Co-Chair of the caucus, rushed down the center aisle of the packed room and up to the lectern in front of a bright window lined with heavy red curtains. "What you'll find from Democrats and Republicans alike is that we share a lot of common goals and sometimes we have different ideas about how to get there," Scott told the crowd. "But one of the things that we all understand is how important the individual health care provider is in patient care."
Rep. Peter Welch (D-VT) is the other caucus Co-Chair. "The House Community Pharmacy Caucus has been established on behalf of the millions of patients whose lives the nation's independent community pharmacists touch everyday," Welch told Pharmacy Today. "Community pharmacies are finding it extremely difficult to serve the people who have depended on them for years—sometimes because of federal laws and policies and sometimes because of the lack of them. The caucus will advocate for important issues facing community pharmacies and serve as a clearinghouse for members, staff, and other interested parties about the important role community pharmacies play in the delivery of health care."
Walgreens on MTM bills
The briefing featured three panelists. The first panelist, Ed Kaleta, a lobbyist for Walgreens, was introduced by the National Association of Chain Drug Stores and pushed for cosponsors on the MTM Empowerment Act of 2013 (H.R. 1024/S. 557). The proposed legislation would bring the number of chronic conditions needed for eligibility down to one and require the bill to be budget neutral, Kaleta said.
As of June 9, H.R. 1024, introduced by Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA), had accumulated 59 cosponsors. Kaleta cited two developments that have helped the legislation gain support in recent months.
First, in November 2012, the Congressional Budget Office announced a change in its estimating methodology, namely that a 1% increase in the number of prescriptions filled by Medicare beneficiaries would cause Medicare spending to fall by 0.2%.
Second, a January 2013 interim report on MTM in a chronically ill population that was prepared for the CMS Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation "showed that where the MTM program focused on chronic disease, chronic disease management, and consultations with patients, dollars were saved … in the Medicare Part B program as a result of what was going on in the Medicare Part D program," Kaleta said.
ASHP on care transitions
The second panelist, Cynthia Reilly, BSPharm, Director, Medication and Safety Quality Division, American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP), described the Medication Management in Care Transitions (MMCT) joint initiative between ASHP and APhA.
Transitions of care are a critical juncture where problems are more likely to arise, leading not only to a negative impact on patient outcomes but also to substantial increases in costs to the health care system, Reilly said at the briefing.
Reilly explained that 18% to 20% of Medicare patients are readmitted within 30 days of hospital discharge, accounting for $15 billion to $17 billion per year, according to a 2007 Medicare Payment Advisory Commission report to Congress, and that approximately half of these patients have not seen any health care provider between the hospital discharge and readmission, according to a 2009 New England Journal of Medicine paper.
Pharmacists are accessible and can address this gap in care by providing MTM, providing patient education, and addressing issues associated with medication access, Reilly said. For MMCT, the goals included helping patients during transitions such as from the hospital to the home or from the hospital to a long-term care facility, and reducing readmissions.
APhA on provider status
The final panelist was Marquess, who noted that all of the day's speakers represented groups in a provider status coalition of 14 national pharmacy organizations.
In addition to serving on the APhA Board of Trustees, Marquess is also a member of the National Community Pharmacists Association, President and CEO of the Institute for Wellness and Education, a specialist in diabetes care, and a co-owner of six Health Mart Pharmacies in Georgia. He said that Scott has "always been supportive of pharmacy issues."
Pharmacists are not listed in section 1861 of the Social Security Act, which "holds back a lot of pharmacists who do want to save money for health care," Marquess said. "I know on a personal level in Georgia, I'm actually being held back a little bit in these accountable care organizations being formed because they will say well great, we've got a physician, we've got a nurse—oh, wait a minute, pharmacists aren't listed as providers."
Marquess continued, "Employers play a big role in this" too. He added that state Medicaid departments were another way of being involved with provider status. "By pharmacists being providers," Marquess said, "this could help increase the care that those patients get and lower the costs."
California provider status bill passes state Senate
On May 29, the California state Senate approved its pharmacist provider status bill (SB 493) that would expand the scope of practice for pharmacy and would specifically name pharmacists as providers, but would not address payment. SB 493 now moves to the California State Assembly for consideration.
The proposed state legislation is intended to help address California's shortage of primary care services, according to its sponsor.
"The significance of the current legislative step is two-fold," California Pharmacists Association (CPhA) CEO Jon R. Roth, CAE, told Pharmacy Today. "First, it has been voted out of the Senate, the bill's house of origin. In order to achieve that step, we had to work to remove all the active opposition to the bill. That will allow the bill to be viewed more favorably as it moves over to the California Assembly."
Addressing physician shortage
The legislation was introduced on February 21 as part of a package of bills by California State Sen. Ed Hernandez, OD, a practicing optometrist and Chair of the state Senate Health Committee. Hernandez also introduced legislation involving other providers—nurse practitioners (SB 491) and optometrists (SB 492). A parallel bill introduced for physician assistants is being carried by another author.
The bills would address the "current primary care physician workforce shortage" that will be compounded when 4.7 million more Californians become eligible for health insurance starting in 2014 under the Affordable Care Act, according to a fact sheet released by Hernandez's office. The number of primary care physicians actively practicing in California is at the very bottom range of or below the state's need, and the distribution of these physicians is also poor.
'Pharmacists are providers'
SB 493 would amend California state law to read that the practice of pharmacy is a profession; that "pharmacy practice is a dynamic, patient-oriented health service that applies a scientific body of knowledge to improve and promote patient health by means of appropriate drug use, drug-related therapy, and communication for clinical and consultative purposes"; that "pharmacy practice is continually evolving to include more sophisticated and comprehensive patient care activities"; and that "pharmacists are health care providers who have the authority to provide health care services."
Examples of new authorities for pharmacists in California would include furnishing self-administered hormonal contraceptives, prescription smoking cessation drugs, and prescription drugs not requiring a diagnosis that are recommended for international travelers; ordering and interpreting tests to monitor and manage the efficacy and toxicity of drug therapies; and independently initiating and administering routine vaccinations.
Pharmacist outreach to legislators
The integrity of the bill has largely been preserved as it has proceeded through the California state Senate, Roth said.
Californians for Accessible Healthcare, the coalition supporting SB 491, SB 492, and SB 493, includes CPhA, the California Society of Health-System Pharmacists, California Association of Nurse Practitioners, and California Optometric Association. On the other side, Coalition for Patient Access and Quality Care, comprising the California Medical Association (CMA) and several other provider groups, oppose the legislation, according to a May 30 CMA news release.
"CPhA member pharmacists have been extremely active in making their voice heard at the capitol," Roth said. "While much of the negotiation with the opposition was done by CPhA staff and consultants, it was the members' outreach to legislators that helped affirm the importance of this legislation to the patients of this state. Many pharmacists met with their legislators, wrote letters, or made phone calls asking for a 'yes' vote on this bill."

April Announcement for the Utah Westerners
"A Real Rest in the Rugged West"
Susan Rugh and Lisa Michele Church
What do John Wayne, author Vladimir Nabokov, and photographer Dorothea Lange have in common? Each one stayed in a Utah motel. In 1953 Utah native DeVoto reported in his Easy Chair column on a newly popular form of lodging growing up all over the West—the motel. Motels and "motel towns" sprouted like mushrooms along the highways of the West. Utah was in the forefront of motel mania.
Join us for this offbeat trip along Utah's highways and byways to remember Utah's motels, from Moab's Apache and Atomic to Salt Lake City's Spiking Inn. Learn how St. George led with cabin camps, courts, and the state's first motel pools. Explore ranch-style architecture and neon waving cowboys that made Utah motels ruggedly western. Discover the quirky motel names that enticed travelers to turn in. Marvel at the space-age signage of modern motels. Be amazed at the palatial motor inns of our capital city that were paved over for parking lots (cue Joni Mitchell here). We will talk about the appeal of motels, the romance of the road, and the hard truths of a dying family business. Wear your sunglasses and bring your road maps for this journey back to the motels of yesteryear.
Susan Sessions Rugh is Professor of History at Brigham Young University and author of Are We There Yet? The Golden Age of the American Family Vacation (2008). Lisa Michele Church is a lawyer by profession, and has a distinguished career in public service. Her articles, "Early Roadside Motels and Motor Courts of St. George" and "St. George: Early Years of Tourism" appeared in the Utah Historical Quarterly in 2012. Rugh and Church are writing a book on Utah motels and have previously presented at Utah State History, Mormon History Association, and Utah Heritage Foundation conferences.

Long after the Trade Show is Over Where Will the Swag Be?
Swag is a part of the DNA of every trade show booth. Some items have been worth their weight in gold, due to the attendee's reaction to them, while some were a waste of money. Will the promotional product make it home or will it be left in the hotel room? There are many questions which should be posed and answered as you consider the worthiness of this endeavor.
The ultimate question is: does that Tchotchke really matter, and will it move the person along the sales funnel? Depending on your target market and what they expect, answers can vary. Below are some questions to consider when reviewing the options for your giveaways.
Questions, Ideas to Consider When Choosing a Tchotchke
- How useful is it? Is this item something you would truly use after the show is over?
- How does this piece relate to your company and its brand? Will it reinforce your brand image?
- How can this swag be tied to the overall booth theme?
- Will this item be kept at the recipient's office? Or is it a fun item that will be given to someone at home, like a child?
- Is there a way that this item can share your unique sales proposition?
- Can this item easily go through security at the airport?
- What types of conversations can the booth staff build around this item as it is being given away?
All of these questions should be reviewed to determine what to choose or pick out. Unfortunately, due to the hurried nature of getting ready for a show, the selection of the "right" promotional product is at the bottom of the list of tasks to accomplish.
Kathleen Hanover has written a post titled: Trade Show Marketing Tip: How To Choose Smart Swagwhere she presents a great idea:
"Let's say your company sells a breakthrough solar panel that is 27% more cost-efficient than anyone else's. Why not give away a small, solar-powered calculator? And what if that calculator had a formula printed on it that the recipient could use to calculate her cost savings over your competition? (Needless to say, it would also have your logo, tagline, and other pertinent details.) The possibilities are endless."
Think about two different types of giveaways. Use a less expensive, but effective, giveaway for the freebie vultures for those people that come by your booth looking for the free giveaway. Don't totally discount these people because they may actually just be trying to get your information and the giveaway will cause them to think of you whenever they use it. The second giveaway should be something a little nicer. It is a reward and thank you for a visitor stopping and engaging in genuinely interested conversation regarding your product. You definitely want to give them a reason to remember you.
Consider a Charitable Gift Rather than Swag
Depending on the audience at the show, a contribution to a charitable cause might gain more recognition for your firm than a giveaway. The show might have a cause they are supporting, like a food bank or a local animal shelter. You could coordinate your efforts with the show to add your contribution along with theirs. Let the press know what you are doing in lieu of spending money on giveaways and you might be able to gain positive exposure for your efforts. The press would be seen by show attendees and those who are not there.
Choosing the appropriate gift is often on a trial and error basis. Consult with a promotional products expert to discuss the wide range of options at your disposal. They can guide you in selecting the right item which will meet and possibly exceed your goals. Walk the show aisles to see what other exhibitors are using. You might see something which can be used for another show.
The good news is you have many options to choose from which can allow you flexibility in meeting budgetary considerations. What has been a great giveaway for you in the past?

Eighteenth December 2010 gave Chennai its fastest boys on wheels. After creating waves in Coimbatore, the Amaron Karting Championship Season 3 shifted its focus to Chennai.
Held on the tracks of the prestigious Kart Attack, ECR, the event saw huge participation from over 11500 students registering from schools in and around Chennai. Mac, Motor Sport Division (Amaron Pro Racing) points out —"The main objective of the event is to transform kids who have the potential into trained professionals, with Amaron backing them all the way through different levels of motor sports."
The winners
The top 64 contestants, who made it through the initial qualifying rounds, fought it out with immense determination. The races began to heat up during the semi finals when the contestants put full pressure on the throttle in pursuit of victory.
The top four finishers from both the semi finals made it to the finals. As the final list was being read out, a grand entry was made by brand ambassador of Amaron and Formula One driver, Karun Chandhok. If his presence wasn't motivation enough, the organisers announced that the top three finishers would be provided an all expense paid trip to Hyderabad for the grand finale.
With six spots up for grabs, it was time for the wheels to roll for one last time. A 10 lap race with sharp bends and long straights tested the endurance of the contestants, and in the end it was Nabeel Khan from A.M.M Matriculation School, who took the chequered flag ahead of P.Shruthik and D.Akash. Karun Chandhok motivated them to chase their dreams and then handed them their medals. A clearly ecstatic Nebeel Khan, winner of the Chennai leg, later quipped "I had earlier taken part in the Amaron Karting Championship two years back and failed. That failure motivated me and I trained harder to make sure I won this time."
After producing racing stalwarts Karun Chandhok and Armaan Ebrahim, Chennai now can flaunt young Nabeel on the Indian motor sport scene.
Interview with Karun Chandhok
What has Amaron done in encouraging Motor Sports in India?
Motor sport is a sport where, you know, it is not easy to come through but what Amaron have done here is that they have taken the sport to the people. They have taken it to children, and encouraged them to take up racing as a sport. It is a great initiative, but it's also important that they need to take the next step. There is no point in these kids saying – I'm Amaron Karting champion. What next? So what they have done is they offer training programs and scholarships, thereby creating steps in the ladder providing a complete package.
See, you have to take it level by level, no?
From here, we take them to the JK tyre junior cup. It again is a low budget format. At the end of the day, you have to invest in cars, mechanics, people, tracks and so one. The fact that JK and Amaron are coming to subsidise it is a huge benefit for these kids. I'll tell you there is no other country in the world where you can conduct a championship of this magnitude. It can never be completely free, but yeah we are moving in the right direction.
Where do you see Indian motor sport in the future?
We have a very good future. You guys have to help here. The more media support we get, we will develop as a sport and more kids can benefit when more sponsors start coming in. It's a chicken and egg, where everyone has to help each other.
On a personal note, will we see Karun Chandhok in Formula One, preferably with Force India?
Hopefully 2011 I'll be back on the grid. I don't think ill race for Force India but I'm reasonably confident that I'll be driving at the Indian Grand Prix. My contract with Hispania Racing Team was for one year, and I had a great chance to interact with five world champions, including Vettel. Let's see, how things chalk up.
Finally, have you seen the track at Greater Noida? How is it shaping up?
Yeah I was there earlier this week. It's a nice circuit with challenging corners. Tilke has designed it in such a way that, as spectators people will able to view two to three corners from the grandstand. It is very spectator friendly.

Gorman's formula for Paul's narrative of the cross has been discussed in previous posts (See Post 1 and Post 2).
The formula consists of the following:
Although [status], not [selfishness] but [self-abasement/slavery].
Paul's narrative of the cross demands that Christians forgo their worldly status, give up personal rights and selfish pursuits, and serve others.
As I read through this material, I realized a connection between this narrative of the cross and the body of Christ. There has to be a renouncing of status in the church for the body of Christ to be one.
There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus (Gal. 3:28).
For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ (1 Cor. 12:12).
Becoming part of the body of Christ demands a removal of status. There is no place for elevated individuals and social distinctions in the church. All Christians share a common humbling as they glorify God. Of course, all individuals will have different abilities and roles, but every member is valuable and important. The church is the priesthood of all believers. It is the place where the CEO and the custodian can serve side by side as elders. The Rockefellers worship beside the Jones. It's not just that a person's status is checked at the door of the church building. It is released at the doorstep of baptism (putting self to death) and a new identity is found in Christ. He is our status.
Social distinctions in the church lead to bitterness and strife. Humbling of self and service of others edifies and builds up a stronger church. Class distinctions are common in society, separating individuals into different groups. But, it is not so in the church. A church consists of people who are one in their aims and purposes. The dictates and the demands of the world have no authority among the people of God. The church is ruled by another way of life.
Leaving status behind provides an important reminder of the all-encompassing nature of discipleship. To give up status and identity is to give up self. The Christian must undergo a daily dying to Christ. May our churches be filled with this attitude and spirit. Their health and life depends on it.

This recipe I have been tweaking for a little over 10 years, and honestly I don't think I can do anything to make it better at this point. It's fairly healthy, easy, and fast.....that's a recipe for success. Growing up I never liked my Granny's version of meatloaf, but my dad made a mean meatloaf! I've been meaning to write this recipe down for y'all for a while, but a phone call with my dad recently finally got me to write it down. We were comparing our meatloaves, & since you sent me yours Dad, this one is for you!
2 tbs unsalted butter (I use grass-fed, or coconut oil)
1 medium onion, diced
1 green pepper, diced
1 16 oz. beer (This is a key ingredient, so don't skimp here! It could be dark or amber. I've used: St. Arnold's Christmas, Rahr & Sons Winter Warmer, Newcastle, Blue Moon, Real Ale Brewhouse Brown, & DFH Indian Brown.... they're all worked great!)
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp dried mustard
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp ground pepper
2 lbs ground beef
1 lb ground pork
1/2 cup bread crumbs (whole wheat, regular, panko, or 2 slices of bread...I've used them all & they all work)
Sprinkle of dried parsley
2 eggs, beaten
1.5 cups ketchup
1 tbs brown sugar
2 tsp (heaping) dried mustard
Worcestershire sauce, to taste
Take your rings off for this recipe! You're get'n messy!
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a skillet, y'all know I used cast iron, combine butter/coconut oil, onions & pepper. When they start to soften (about 5 minutes), add in the beer. It will smell amazing! Then add in the thyme, mustard, sea salt & pepper as the beer begins to evaporate. Then turn off the skillet.
2. In a separate bowl, mix together beef, pork, bread crumbs, parsley, & eggs with your fingers (you might start with a spoon, but you will abandon that plan quickly; I promise ;-). Then add the onion/green pepper mixture. Toss it all together just until mixed. You don't want to over-handle the meat.
3. Line the bottom layer of a broiler pan with foil (you'll thank me later when you're doing dishes). Then form your meat into a loaf on the pan. Cook for an hour.
4. While the meat is cooking, mix the sauce: ketchup, brown sugar, mustard, & Worcestershire sauce. After the meatloaf has cooked for an hour, turn the oven up to 475 degrees and apply this sauce to the top & edges and then cook for another 45 minutes.
5. Enjoy!

"What is it like to be a midwife with infertility?" After the usual annoying questions like "Have you thought of adopting?", that's the question I got asked the most. It was hard to answer; after all, I don't know what it's like to be an architect or a banker with infertility. I'd guess that most women feel like they got a slap in the face when they are told they may never have a spontaneous conception. Mine felt like a pie in the face and a kick in the ass – just as painful, with the added humiliation of being the butt of someone's joke. Most days I trudged through the endless cycle monitoring, hormone shots, ultrasounds and blood tests the same as everyone else, just trying to stay sane, or a relative facsimile thereof. However, like most women, there were pauses after a failed cycle or miscarriage when I would ask "why me?". Why me as a woman who, although will never be canonized, tries to be a good person. And, why me as a midwife? I've spent the bulk of my adulthood trying to help women stay strong while bringing life into the world. Wasn't it my turn now?
Besides the "why me?" cry of the victim, there was another "why me?". Spiritually, I tend to waiver between the two schools of thought: that a divine presence has given you a specific challenge that you need to learn from, or that life is random but the point is to draw meaning from the struggles we have. I just read a quote from the Dalai Lama: "There is a saying in Tibetan, 'Tragedy should be utilized as a source of strength.' Either way, I started to ponder in the midst of infertility what my contribution should be. I guess helping women who were pregnant after infertility was the obvious course.
Once I started thinking about how pregnancy might differ after struggling to conceive, I started really talking to my IVF patients about their experience. Although I always thought I was a good listener, there was a difference now. I don't know if I actually started asking different questions, or that maybe women just get a sense of someone in the same trench. Either way, I started learning a lot from my patients. I also started looking online and as usual, Resolve provided some of the few resources for women in this subgroup. (http://www.resolve.org/support-and-services/pregnancy-after-infertility/myths-and-facts.html). At the time, in 2005, there were a few blogs but not much else. It has been great to see more and more resources turn up over the years, like PAIL bloggers http://pailbloggers.com, and Resolve's discussion boards http://www.inspire.com/groups/living-after-infertility-resolution/.
The thing that troubled me then, still troubles me now: the virtual silence from my own community. Most of the medical literature on ART pregnancies have to do with medical risks, and what little there is on psychological well-being is inconclusive. In my own tiny corner of the obstetric universe, I try to educate my colleagues when the opportunity arises. The reaction has been mixed at best. In our practice, we offer patients shared medical appointments for various reasons, including prenatal care. I tried to start a group specifically for women getting prenatal care after infertility or loss, but the lack of support was prohibitive, including one of our reproductive endocrinologists who thought that women should be "normalized" once they're pregnant. I think that sums up the lack of understanding from the medical community and the general public. It's also the reason I believe the psychological studies conclude that a woman who has experienced infertility is either a: more likely to be anxious or depressed, b: less likely to be anxious or depressed, or c: has the same incidence of anxiety or depression during pregnancy. We as a medical community and a culture like to lump experience into either disease or healthy, normal or abnormal. Infertility influences a woman's relationship with her body and therefore pregnancy. It's not bad or good, normal or abnormal. But it's there, and our unique experience deserves to be acknowledged, otherwise, we feel anything but "normal".
I believe Andrew Solomon said it best in his book "Far From the Tree", referring to the ongoing debate about wether conditions like autism or deafness are diseases or identities: "We often use illness to disparage a way of being, and identity to validate that same way of being. This is a false dichotomy. In physics, the Copenhagen interpretation defines energy/matter as behaving sometimes like a wave and sometimes like a particle, which suggests that it is both, and posits that it is our human limitation to be unable to see both at the same time… Many conditions are both illness and identity, but we can see one only when we obscure the other. Identity politics refutes the idea of illness, while medicine shortchanges identity. Both are diminished by this narrowness."
As midwives, we believe that the journey matters. How you bring a baby into the world is an important piece of our identity as women, as well as how he/she was conceived. The American College of Nurse Midwives makes buttons that say "Listen to Women". This is why I became a midwife: to give voice to women. Those who experience infertility are a comparatively small group of women, and women who become pregnant after, an even more modest pack. To give us voice has been my calling since taking the journey myself. Maybe it's, like I said, finding a purpose makes my struggle worthwhile. Maybe it's penance for all the women I cared for before understanding what it was like to be on the other side. But here I am in my small corner of the world, trying to educate my colleagues, and be a source of support to women who seek it. I presented at a professional conference in 2011, and will again at our American College of Nurse Midwives in May. And I started my blog, because I wanted join the chorus of bloggers as someone who could offer support both as a midwife and a friend. Not exactly a shout from the mountain top, but as one of many voices who want our loved ones to know the following: that infertility deeply affects our lives, even when treatment is "successful"; that pregnancy and parenting is not easier for us, just because we tried harder for it and we still need our friends and family; that it's difficult to emerge from the isolation of infertility and ask for support, so we hope you'll be there for us. Mostly that, even when our bellies are showing, and sometimes, even when we're pushing a stroller around, we still feel "infertile". It's not good or bad, not an illness or deformity, but it is the prism through which we now view life, part of the fabric of the women we are. Thanks to organizations like Resolve, we are finding our voice. Please visit their website and lend your support to this organization in any way you can. http://www.resolve.org/infertility-overview/what-is-infertility/

The role of government is to protect individuals in their God-given individual rights. Freedom is the natural birthright of man, but all that government can do in behalf of freedom is to let the individual alone, and it should secure him in his rights by making others let him alone." ~Rev.

James Mott (New Jersey)
James Mott (* January 18, 1739 at Middletown, Monmouth County, New Jersey, † October 18, 1823 ) was an American politician. Between 1801 and 1805 he represented the State of New Jersey in the U.S. House of Representatives.
James Mott grew up during the British colonial period and enjoyed a private school education. At the beginning of the American Revolution, he joined the movement. In 1775 he became a captain in the second regiment of the state militia of New Jersey. At the same time he began a political career. Between 1776 and 1779 he was a member of the New Jersey General Assembly; 1783 to 1799 he was Minister of Finance ( Treasurer ) of the State of New Jersey. End of the 1790s he became a member of, founded by Thomas Jefferson Democratic- Republican Party.
In the congressional elections of 1800 Mott was for the fourth seat from New Jersey in the U.S. House of Representatives in Washington DC chosen, where he became the successor of James Henderson Imlay on March 4, 1801. After a re-election he was able to complete in Congress until March 3, 1805 two legislative sessions. During this period fell by President Jefferson in 1803 incurred Louisiana Purchase, by which the territory of the United States has been considerably enlarged. In 1804, the Twelfth Amendment to the Constitution was ratified.
After the end of his time in the U.S. House of Representatives, James Mott retired from politics. He died on October 18, 1823 on his farm near Middletown, where he was also buried.

This was supposed to be the year of the foiling minis. Many would think they would be unbeatable. Among the most interesting Minis is the 747 designed by David Raison that won the 2011 Mini Transat with it. The boat was bought by Seair that has been developing a flying mini...with success:
Unfortunately it is not racing this year, surprisingly they say the boat is not yet ready and the development continues. The objective is winning the 2019 Mini Transat.
Also very interesting, the Arkema 3, a Neyhousser design, also a foiling mini but one that is not intended to fly. The foils are similar to the ones on the IMOCA boats and it has also a wing self supported mast (no stays). This one is racing the Transat on the hands of an experienced sailor, Quentin Vlamynck. Not doing a great race being now in 14th place among the Protos (prototypes) maybe because all these innovations, including being made with a recyclable resin, make the boat heavier, almost 300kg more than the lighter protos giving it a bad performance on light winds.
Then we have Simon Koster's boat, the Frog (888), a Mousselon design (Mer Forte). This one was designed to fly on foils but also at the cost of increased weight and worse upwind performance. Koster is a great sailor, in my opinion one of the best on mini and among the foiling boats, the best classified. He was 3rd for some time and sails now in 5th place.
Finally the two men that have dominated the race till now, Lipinsky and Léger, both on boats with conventional daggerboards. Lipinsky, one of the favorites (and one of the best) on a boat with a round bow, the 885, a David Raison design and Léger on an older design, a 2009 Marc Lombard one. Curiously among the first there are several relatively old Marc Lombard designs!!! Quite surprising.
But the BIG surprise is this girl, Clarisse Crémer, 26 years. Till one year ago she had never sailed solo, much less solo raced and decided to make this year's Transat. Well no big deal, but leading the Serie minis (the production ones) among more than 50 sailors? Many of those are very experienced sailors with several Transats done!!! But that is the least, she is racing 3rd overall, considering the two classes put together and the protos have canting keels, dagger-boards or foils, are much lighter boats, not to mention that among the proto sailors there are some truly great sailors.
Pretty much unbelievable!!! watch out for this girl and if you love sailing and can contribute with some sponsoring, well you will not probably find a better bet. Look at her saying that she wants to finish a Transat, so innocent and full of enthusiasm. She looks like a beginner but if she begins like this I want to see what she will do when she is experienced LOL.
She is sailing a Pogo 3, a Guillaume Verdier design, a great boat but a very simple and cheap one if compared with the prototypes that are much more technologically advanced and much more expensive. The relatively small diference in performance is truly astonishing.
This year's race is different, the race will be divided into two legs, one till the Canary Islands and the other from there to Martinique. They are almost finishing the first leg and you can follow it here: http://www.minitransat.fr/en/follow-race/cartography
There are skippers from many nationalities: France, Italy, Spain, Swiss, Belgium, Germany, Ireland, Croatia and Romania, unfortunately all Europeans. It seems that solo racing is not only a French thing anymore but a European thing. I hope that in some years it will be a world affair.
Another interesting observation is that solo racing is not a men's sport anymore. There had been always some exceptions with great solo sailors being women, but 10 women on a solo race? It seems a record to me.

Coker continues efforts to make college education affordable, accessible
On National College Decision Day (May 1), Coker announced it has lowered the credit cost for its online undergraduate degree students from $619 a credit hour to $425 a credit hour, a more than 30% reduction in online program tuition pricing, in a continued effort to make a college education more affordable, accessible, and convenient for the modern-day student.
The price decrease will take place at the start of the 2019-2020 academic year. The price decrease affects all Coker students enrolled in the college's entirely online undergraduate degree programs––B.S. in business management, B.S. in criminology, B.S. in psychology, and B.S. in sociology––and includes students enrolled in entirely online articulation agreements with Coker––Aiken Technical College, Horry-Georgetown Technical College, and Richmond Community College (Hamlet, N.C.).
"The opportunity to complete a degree in a format that is accessible can make a tremendous difference for many students," says Tracy Parkinson, vice-president for strategic partnerships and special assistant to the president of Coker College. "As we offer more options for students who would best benefit from an online program, we want to be sure that the program is also as accessible as we can make it from a cost standpoint. Whether online or face to face, it's crucial to try to make the bachelor's degree a viable option for as many students as possible."
For working adults and/or digital natives, completing a degree online may be the most practical way to boost their careers. "Online learning is answering a long-standing problem in higher education," says Coker President Dr. Robert Wyatt. "It provides flexibility, convenience, and accessibility for busy adults, and Coker's unique approach to student and faculty collaboration and engagement make it a great option."
Coker has also taken steps to be a transfer-friendly school by establishing bridge and articulation agreements with several community colleges in the Carolinas, giving associate degree graduates the opportunity to complete their bachelor's degree in just two years.
Earlier this year, Coker was included in U.S. News & World Report's Best Online Programs rankings in the category of Best Online Bachelor's Programs. One thing that makes Coker's online programs unique is that all of Coker's online undergraduate students are assigned a student success coach. Their student success coach will help them tackle obstacles that might keep them from completing their degree, connecting students with the resources they need to be successful. They work directly with students to answer questions, provide clarity, walk them through confusing procedures, and foster a connection between the student and Coker's digital community.
The cost for Coker graduate degree programs and traditional undergraduate degree programs remains unchanged. Students in on-site bridge programs will see a slight increase in cost-per-credit to accommodate the new tuition structure; however, financial aid options, including price-sensitive support like the South Carolina Tuition Grant, will continue to be available for these students and will be adjusted in eligible circumstances. Additionally, Coker College's Annual Scholarship Fund awards over $10 million in scholarships each year, placing the net price of Coker's private education on par with that of local public universities.
For more information about Coker's online undergraduate degree options, please visit coker.edu/ online. For more information about applying to Coker College, please visit coker.edu/ apply.
Coker College is a student-focused, comprehensive college with a strong liberal arts core located in Hartsville. Coker combines round table, discussion-based learning with hands-on experiences to encourage active participation in and out of the classroom. A supportive, close-knit community prepares Coker students with the confidence and practical life skills they need to reach their personal best, in college and beyond.
Founded in 1908, Coker is a bachelor's and master's degree-granting institution and competes in 24 NCAA Division II sports. Coker is included among the "Best Colleges" in the South by U.S. News & World Report as well as The Princeton Review, and by Washington Monthly as a "Best Bang for Your Buck" college in the southeast.

questions on educational development
So, what do we know? This question will have to be answered in several different ways. For example, we know that educational institutions often reflect the social organizations in which they are embedded. We also know that educational models provide some of the most effective means by which young people are socialized into cultural patterns. Since culture directly influences institutions, and therefore markets and politics, we know that culture and institutions form a reinforcing feedback cycle. Thus, we know how hard it is to change the practices of cultural institutions, and we can also infer how effective small changes can become over a long duration. Finally, we know which practices work, and which do not — to which we shall return.
Then, what don't we know? We cannot know all of the externalities that also affect culture and institutions, nor can we predict what externalities will arise from small changes in those systems. We do not know the depth or complexity of each individual who participates in these educational systems. Most importantly, we do not know what form the most effective innovations in education will take, nor from where they will arise. However, all of these uncertainties and gaps in our knowledge can be harnessed productively.
What changes can we make, and what should we do? Here, the questions lose some objectivity and blend into subjective, cultural territory. We can say, generally, that we should aim to change educational practices from worse to better, and there are already measures that can help us direct those efforts. For example, we can look to previous research that indicates effective educational models, like Japan, Denmark, India, Finland, and South Korea. We can also seek out failing or defunct educational institutions, like Zimbabwe, Afghanistan, and Mexico. Finally, we can look at the relative efficacy of international, national, regional, and local educational institutions to determine what our strategy should be.
So we come to the question of strategy. This involves determining both what opportunities we have before us, as well as what challenges. Once the research indicates some particular, concrete institutional models, how we go about instituting the necessary changes will be radically contingent on the culture and the model in question. This blends into the theoretical aspect of the foregoing research, since the cultural, economic, institutional, national, linguistic, and many other networks that affect education itself will require analysis. We can say, however, that if we identify some interstitial, as-yet-untapped resources, like the apparent multilingual advantage of those in less-developed regions, then we can target our strategy to those advantages, and at the same time, minimize resistance to the small changes that will likely lead to structural revolutions.

Gurugram which has become a fine food capital now is a heaven for foodies. Whatever your taste is, Gurugram has a table to suit. Wanted to have a perfect lunch with a friend we visited restaurant Mosaic, Country Inn & Suites in Sector 29, Gurugram. Courteously welcomed in the busy restaurant we somehow managed to get a table for us. It is well let fine dine restaurant with a seating of around 70 people including the bar section. The interiors are quite cozy and soothing.
Soon we got a chance to meet Chef Gautam who explained us how their food menu is being curated with a focus on driving UN's Chef's Manifesto by working closely with farmers to produce sustainable food with the usage of seasonal and local ingredients.
In anticipation of trying something new we left our food choice on him for his specially done dishes with all the twist using seasonal ingredients.
Our food journey began with Amaranth Lavoush with Green Peas Hummus, Smoked Baigan Bharta and Achaari Dahi. All the dips here were very tasty specially the achari dahi which we completed to the bottom. Moong Dal Chokha Tacos was something which we'll not find anywhere else, very well stuffed with Moong daal and chokha(from litti chokha). Green Chholia aur Roasted Chana Chaat is something which is extremely nutritious and tasty as well.

Pavel Pudlak (Czech Academy of Sciences)
Combinatorial principles from proof complexity
One of the goals of proof theory is to find combinatorial characterization of sentences provable in particular theories, i.e., to present these sentences as mathematical principles, rather than mere syntactical statements. While for strong theories these sentences tent to be incomprehensible, for weak theories we expect to find something familiar, or at least similar to well-known principles. In this talk I will report on the project to characterize provably disjoint NP pairs of sets in systems called Bounded depth Frege systems. The resulting characterization is expressed in terms of positional strategies in some combinatorial games that generalize the standard concept of a finite game.

Crew takes on Head of the Charles
October 22, 2013
By Kate Joseph
Staff Writer
The Simmons College crew team rowed in the 49th Annual Head of the Charles Regatta on Saturday, Oct. 19 and Sunday, Oct. 20, taking 27th and 16th place respectively.
The Head of the Charles Regatta is the world's largest two-day rowing event, featuring more than 9,000 athletes from 23 different countries competing in 55 events.
"We came out this year with a strong team ready to work hard," said Collegiate Eight rower Taylor Nealand. "I think we did really well on working together and helping each other succeed. We came together as teammates and helped each other out with nerves, strategies, and experience altogether."
The Sharks started off on Saturday with the Simmons Crew Collegiate Four entry rowing to 27th place with a time of 20:32.887. The boat consisted of Emme Rosenberg, Olivia Kritzman, Taylor Nealand, Sophie Stone, and Andrea Breen.
"Head of the Charles is always an exciting race," said Breen. "People come from all over the world and the energy is just amazing! I thought my boat did great considering we had only been practicing together for a couple weeks."
The Simmons Alumnae Eight also raced on Saturday, finishing at 30th place with a time of 20:06.258. Nicole Gallant '10, Amanda DeRosa '11, Katherine McCombs '93, Kimberly Locke '93, Rebecca Brown '12, Cindy Reynolds '13, Julianne Davis '10, Laura Jungreis '13, and Kristina (Vulgaris) Levasseur '08 made up the alumnae entry.
On Sunday the Simmons Collegiate Eight raced to 16th place out of 25 boats with a time of 19:13.030. The team consisted of Olivia Smiaroski, Alexandra Kruzel, Kate Hale, Katelyn Allen, Jill Bolduc, Lauren Lane, Jane Walsh, Aris Walker, and Chelsea Foster.
"I thought the regatta went really well for our team this weekend," said Walsh. "We are working to become more competitive with other teams in our conference and are successfully closing the gap with every race."
Crew returns on Sunday, Oct. 27, for the Seven Sisters Regatta at Bryn Mawr, PA.

Approximately 40% of American families have a dog. While it's unthinkable that the lovable family pet could bite someone, accidents do happen. The American Veterinary Medical Association states that 4.5 million people are bitten each year and of those, 800,000 need medical attention, causing the injured party to incur medical expenses. This article covers the one bite rule in Texas.
While Texas is a "one-bite" state, (meaning that the dog owner won't generally be liable unless the owner had reason to know of the dog's vicious tendencies), there are several ways for liability to attach even if the gentlest dog suddenly snaps at a stranger. Leash laws, city ordinances, and general negligence could all create liability even if it is the dog's "first bite."
The "one-bite rule" may seem simple on the surface, but the facts underlying each bite generally require each case to be handled differently. Does the dog growl at strangers? Does it wag its tail or bare its teeth? Has it bitten anyone in the past? Maybe the dog thought it needed to protect its "territory," or was it trespassing on a neighbor's property? Was the dog being provoked, or could the dog have interpreted the human as being aggressive, such as sticking a hand through a fence? Was it on a leash?
All of these questions come into play in a dog bite suit. The "one bite" rule is not as black and white as it sounds. If the dog demonstrated "vicious" tendencies previously, then the plaintiff generally has an easier case for liability and damages. If you've been bitten, or your dog bit someone, it is a good idea to write down the details, take photos, as soon as possible and contact an attorney to determine if you have a claim or a defense.

No sooner had the crew of boxers, officials, friends and family finished putting up the boxing ring at the Clarion Hotel Thursday night than Janick Lacroix was ghosting punches in it, dodging and jabbing an invisible opponent.
The 16-year-old has a focus and a love of his sport that's plain to see, and this weekend he hopes his city comes to see where he's taking it.
Lacroix, a current Canadian junior champion, will fight in the main event Saturday night at the 15th annual Nieman-Page Memorial, yet another generation in Medicine Hat's esteemed boxing lineage.
Understandably, he can't wait.
"It's a hometown show, hopefully my friends and family will come watch," said Lacroix, who came to the Gas City two years ago from Ponteix, Sask. "It'll be a good night."
The matchup with Regina's Quinn Neald, the junior champ at a higher 75 kg division (Lacroix won at 70 kg), is a rematch from Lacroix's unanimous win on Neald's home turf back in October. A half-dozen or so Medicine Hat pugilists will fight at one point or another during the weekend, which includes both Saturday's fan-centric evening card and the Alberta Silver Gloves tournament, which starts Saturday and runs all day Sunday as well.
"These crowds are what pay our bills, so we'll give them the best show we can," said club coach Kerry Fahlman, adding Neald will be in far better condition this time around, and thus a lot more of a challenge. "If there's enough competitors we'll have a Saturday afternoon show, too."
Fahlman confirmed that while there was never any doubt Lacroix would be the main event, fellow Hatter Tristan Deveau will get to be in the penultimate bout of the Memorial card. His opponent isn't for sure yet, a decision that will have to take into account the 18-year-old's shoulder condition and how many fighters show up for Silver Gloves. Local organizers need to balance the desire for an entertaining card with what's best for the athletes, and Deveau might get to fight twice on the weekend if his health allows.
"I push myself to the limit no matter what, so where my limit's going to be this weekend may differ depending on my shoulder," said Deveau, who's risen in the ranks quickly this past year. "I don't want to injure myself before (the Canada Winter Games)."
Both Lacroix and Deveau have made Team Alberta, headed for the Canada Winter Games in Red Deer next month. Oddly, nobody with the local boxing club was notified that the Games' torch relay was heading through the city Saturday as well, with an event at 3 p.m. at the downtown YMCA set to feature — according to the Canada Games' torchbearer list — not one Medicine Hat athlete, but instead a half-dozen or so area politicians and one 15-year-old speed skater from Lethbridge.
The News is aware of four confirmed Medicine Hat athletes going to the Canada Winter Games: female hockey player Jordan Mortlock and speed skater Josh Hathaway are the others. The Games run Feb. 15 to March 2. But both of those athletes currently live and compete in other cities: Mortlock's with the Pursuit of Excellence academy in Kelowna, while Hathaway skates long track in Calgary. So the Nieman-Page card is essentially Hatters' only chance to see Games-bound athletes in action within city limits.
It'll be Lacroix's second straight year headlining the event, and after a year including stops all across North America, he's not one bit nervous.
"You don't want to be cocky but you want to be confident," he said.
After finishing his last year as a junior with a national title, he's also building up to the new youth division, which is only a two-year gap before senior level and, hopefully, national team and even Olympic aspirations.
Given what he's accomplished so far, nobody would be surprised.
"He's on his way. I know he'll be there, because he wants it," said Fahlman. "That's why I take him where I do, I take him south, get him better fights."

Ilkay Gundogan and Jonathan Tah will join a long list of Germany absentees after they were each ruled out of their friendly with Argentina.
Die Mannschaft take on La Albiceleste in a rematch of the 2014 World Cup final won by Germany in Dortmund on Wednesday.
Toni Kroos, Leroy Sane, Antonio Rudiger, Timo Werner, Leon Goretzka and Matthias Ginter are all unavailable, and coach Joachim Low revealed Manchester City midfielder Gundogan and Bayer Leverkusen defender Tah will also miss out.
Tah has an illness, while Gundogan is struggling with a muscle problem, though he could return for Sunday's Euro 2020 qualifier with Estonia.
Marco Reus is a doubt with a minor knee injury, with Robin Koch and Sebastian Rudy having been called up to the squad following the spate of withdrawals.
"You just have to live with that. It is not a situation I wished and would want. It is not an ideal situation. It is rare to have so many absences," Low said on Tuesday.
"It is a tense situation and not a happy one. It will be difficult to have high expectations from the team. But the team will be engaged and serious because Argentina are a tough opponent."
On Reus, Low added: "We will have to see. He will train this evening and then we will see if it makes sense to use him."

Pablo Diego José Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno María de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santísima Trinidad Martyr Patricio Clito Ruíz y Picasso
Picasso's full name is 23 words, and 103 characters long. The artist was named after various saints and relatives. He adopted his mother's surname, because he thought it suited him better.
In his words: "[Picasso] was stranger, more resonant, than Ruiz ... Do you know what appealed to me about that name? Well, it was undoubtedly the double 's', which is fairly unusual in Spain. Picasso is of Italian origin, as you know. And the name a person bears or adopts has its importance. Can you imagine me calling myself Ruiz? Pablo Ruiz? Diego-José Ruiz? Or Juan-Népomucène Ruiz?"
In true artist fashion, Picasso's first word was "piz," short of "lápiz" the Spanish word for "pencil."
Picasso's father Ruiz, who was an artist and art professor, gave his child a formal art education from the age of 7. By the time Picasso was 13, his father gave up painting because he felt Picasso had surpassed him in skill.
Le Picador
by Pablo Picasso (1890)
La première communion (First Communion)
by Pablo Picasso (1896)
Picasso's iconic shirt is a Breton-striped shirt, which in 1858 became the official uniform for French seamen in Brittany.
The 21 horizontal stripes represent each of Napoleon's victories, and the continuous stripe from shirt to sleeve allows for easier spotting of sailors in the distance.
Coco Chanel brought these shirts to the fashion world in 1917, and they are still very much en vogue.
