J.E. Jones Pledge
I'm an important person in the Jones Community.
I will respect everything and everyone.
I will be responsible for my own behavior.
I am here to learn and do my best.
J.E. Jones Elementary School opened in 1957. The school population consists of Early Childhood to 6th grade. One unique feature of the school is the small student population. Most of the grades have only one class. Everyone at Jones is close and friendly and the school has a very family-like atmosphere. Many of the teachers buddy up to meet with other classes to work on academic and technology skills.
Though the school is small, the PTA is quite a force. They contribute to the classrooms, help with field trips, school wide programs, host dances, run the book fair, and sponsor family movie nights.
The J.E. Jones staff works hard to bring many multicultural experiences into the school. The students have enjoyed programs from the Milwaukee Ballet, Ko-Thi African Dance Company, Wave Soccer, Florentine Opera, Chinese Acrobats, DeYoung Family Zoo, and many others.
J.E. Jones promotes student/community involvement. All of the classrooms contribute to book, clothing, and food drives throughout the year. The children truly care about their community.
The School District of Cudahy does not discriminate on the basis of sex, race, religion, national origin, ancestry, creed, pregnancy, marital or parental status, sexual orientation or physical, mental, emotional, or learning disability.

That's why I have a flip phone, menus are in TEXT, so I can't confuse the damn Icons. It's pretty intuitive that way. Phone settings for instance, or Sound settings, or Contacts, or Call History. THEN submenus, also text.
By the way, I don't see any need to TEXT when I am using my phone to CALL. No reason to have a TABLET to use an Office program, either, nor to have my desktop make a phone call. GET my drift? Purpose-driven devices, designed for what they do best, not for one size-fits none.

Series: Understanding Randomness
In this series, Kathryn Applegate addresses the concern that randomness implies the absence of God's activity and involvement in the natural world. She begins by clearing up some common misconceptions about the concept of "randomness", and later focuses on the mechanisms of the immune system to demonstrate that God works through random processes to preserve life. Far from being an indication of a "godless" universe, one might conclude that randomness is one of God's favorite mechanisms for creating and sustaining life!
Series: God and Creation
In this four part series, David Opderbeck explores the interesting relationship between God and his creation. He first looks at his transcendence over the material world. In one respect, God is completely distinct from all creation, yet he is also immanent, or present within all creation. Another aspect of God reflected in creation is his Triune nature. Just as love, fellowship, and delight exist within the Trinity, so these characteristics are present in the world, and experienced by humans. He completes his thoughts with a discussion about God's interaction with humans.
Evolution, the Enlightenment, and Worldviews
In this video conversation, N.T. Wright discusses how the Enlightenment worldview -- which clearly separates God from the world -- has impacted our view of Scripture, and why cleaning the "spectacles" through which we view the world can help us see both Scripture and the world more clearly.
Made in the Image of God: Human Values and Genomics
Genes and physiology are seen as something different from "us" and "our mind," and they seem to be controlling us, so we can't even change our mind. Humans are presented as pawns of their biology, puppets dancing to the tune of their genetic masters.
Does Evolution Compromise Human Morality?
Once we have a scientific hypothesis for how something exists, it is tempting to make the philosophical inference that this is also why it exists.
Southern Baptist Series: Evolution and the Problem of Evil
Were one to propose creation by means of theistic evolution, some of the presuppositions for these responses to the problem of evil no longer function. Therefore, advocating some form of theistic evolution poses problems for standard explanations of the problem of evil.
Why Strict Atheism Is Unscientific
Do you believe in God? If a cadre of outspoken, strong atheists wrote a litmus test for scientists, that might very well be question #1.
Series: "And God Saw That It Was Good": Death and Pain in the Created Order
The tension generated by our understanding of God's character, as revealed in the Bible, and by the reality of the natural world around us has been the focus of much debate within the Christian church since the first century. This series examines critically several of the proposed solutions to this problem, viewing them from the perspective of a geologist, paleontologist, and orthodox evangelical Christian.
Can Science Ever Know Enough?
To say something is poetic is not to declare it ultimately untrue, futile and meaningless—it is to say it is more profound and meaningful and true than many other modes of expression.
Science and the Bible: Theistic Evolution, Part 3
As I stressed in my column about the YEC view, creationism is ultimately about theodicy—it's not only about theodicy, to be sure, but the belief that animals must not have suffered and died before Adam and Eve committed the first sin is crucial to the "young" in Young Earth Creationism. To a significant degree, Theistic Evolution is also about theodicy.
Did David Hume "Banish" Miracles?
"I flatter myself," Hume triumphantly proclaimed, "that I have discovered an argument . . . which, if just, will, with the wise and learned, be an everlasting check to all kinds of superstitious delusion, and consequently, will be useful as long as the world endures."
Series: Divine Action in the World
In this talk, Professor Plantinga addresses the fact that many contemporary thinkers—including many theologians—believe that God cannot perform miracles, providentially guide history, or interact in the lives of people, as these activities would be contrary to science. Plantinga, on the other hand, makes the case that this popular view is mistaken; excluding divine action in the world is not a central feature of natural science itself, but a philosophical or theological preference that has been added on to science (and can just as readily be removed). Plantinga concludes that it is completely logical to accept the miracles of the Bible and support contemporary science.
The Randomness Project
It is not uncommon to hear voices proclaiming that biology and physics have shown us that—at fundamental levels—nature is random, hence meaningless, purposeless, and without a creator. But how might God work providentially through indeterminate processes? The John Templeton Foundation has provided a generous grant of $1.69 million to support a new research initiative on the theme of Randomness and Divine providence.
Series: Southern Baptist Voices: Evolution and Death
This exchange brings together related essays on death in light of evolution and Scripture from Southern Baptist theologian Dr. John Laing. Laing argues that evolutionary theory requires death to play a central role in the creation of new life, but sees Scripture depicting death only "as an invader, disturber of peace, and a force of evil." A BioLogos response is given by Dr. Jeff Schloss.
The Questions Update: Did death occur before the Fall?
Today's post features a preview of the updated Question, "Did death occur before the Fall?", revised by Senior Web Consultant and Writer Deborah Haarsma. This question provides an overview of the issue and points readers to more resources within and beyond the BioLogos website.
Series: Asa Gray and Charles Darwin Discuss Evolution and Design
Many Christians believe that they face a painful choice-- either life was designed by God or it is an evolutionary product of natural selection. Charles Darwin himself believed in this dichotomy, and people ever since have felt the need to "choose sides". However, looking back at history, we find that one of Darwin's chief scientific colleagues, Asa Gray, did not share this perspective. In this three-part essay, part 1 charts the relationship of Asa Gray and Charles Darwin. Part 2 describes Darwin's struggle with the problem of natural evil and design in nature, and part 3 explores how Asa Gray was able to embrace evolution without rejecting the idea of design.
Naming 'the God Particle'
The discovery of the Higgs boson would certainly be a breakthrough for particle physics and cosmology, but would such a finding also radically redefine theology's understanding of God or challenge the existence of such a deity? Is there actually any theological or religious significance in Higgs physics at all?
Randomness and Evolution: Is There Room for God? (Videocast)
This BioLogos videocast addresses the idea of randomness as a part of natural selection, and whether it challenges the possibility of God using the evolutionary process as a means of creation.
What is Scientism?
Scientism is a rather strange word, but for reasons that we shall see, a useful one. Though this term has been coined rather recently, it is associated with many other "isms" with long and turbulent histories: materialism, naturalism, reductionism, empiricism, and positivism.
Series: The God Who Acts: Robert John Russell on Divine Intervention and Divine Action
Does God need to supernaturally "intervene" in order to bring about the diversity of life that we observe today? Is that kind of action different from God's ordinary action? We begin our three-part series with Robert John Russell's description of how views of divine action have changed throughout history, excerpted from his book Cosmology: From Alpha to Omega. Part 2 addresses why "intervention" in the natural world is a problem philosophically, theologically, and scientifically; and Part 3 explains Russell's own theory of divine action in the natural world.

Flavorwire's Guide to Indie Flicks to See in September
September is kind of a peculiar month for movies. Summer blockbuster season has faded, and though the Oscar hopefuls are rolling out at the prestige fall festivals (Toronto, Venice, Telluride), most of them won't hit theaters until at least October, to accommodate the notoriously short memories of Academy voters. So it's a perfect month to check out some of the mid-level indies (many of them first seen at Sundance and other, earlier fests) that will hit arthouses this month; we've got some recommendations for you after the jump. … Read More
This Week in Trailers: 'Zero Dark Thirty,' 'Trouble with the Curve,' and More!
Every Friday here at Flavorwire, we like to gather up the week's new movie trailers, give them a look-see, and rank them from worst to best — while taking a guess or two about what they might tell us (or hide from us) about the movies they're promoting. We've got nine trailers this week, featuring the likes of Clint Eastwood, Paul Rudd, Amy Adams, Gerald Butler, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Justin Timberlake, Lizzy Caplan, Jessica Biel, Leslie Mann, Albert Brooks, Megan Fox, Elizabeth Olsen, Josh Radnor, John Krasinski, and Olivia Thirlby. Check 'em all out after the jump, and share your thoughts in the comments. … Read More
Sundance 2012: The Deals, The Awards, and That Kubrick Doc
The 2012 Sundance Film Festival drew to a close over the weekend with a flurry of additional distribution deals, as well as a Saturday night awards ceremony. The fest's out-of-nowhere buzz hit Beasts of the Southern Wild was among the big winners, nabbing not only the Dramatic Grand Jury Prize, but the US Dramatic Excellence in Cinematography award. The Documentary Grand Jury Prize went to The House I Live In, an examination of the war on drugs from director Eugene Jarecki (Why We Fight). The Israeli film The Law in These Parts won the World Cinema Jury Prize for Documentary, while the Latin American musical drama Violeta Went to Heaven won the Dramatic World Cinema Jury Prize.
True to my history of excellent scheduling judgment, your humble correspondent saw not one of those films during my eight days in Park City, though I did take in — and greatly enjoy — the US Audience award winners The Invisible War (Documentary) and The Surrogate (Drama); the latter film also won a richly-deserved US Dramatic Special Jury Prize for Ensemble Acting. My favorite film of the fest, Mike Birbiglia's warm, winning comedy Sleepwalk With Me, won the Best of NEXT Audience Award; another favorite, the wry time-travel comedy/drama Safety Not Guaranteed, won the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award. … Read More

Trailer Park: Upside Down, Inside Out
Welcome to "Trailer Park," our regular Friday feature where we collect the week's new trailers all in one place and do a little "judging a book by its cover," ranking them from worst to best and taking our best guess at what they may be hiding. Though we took a week off for the holidays, the pre-Christmas trailer flood has slowed to a trickle; that said, we've managed to rustle up six new films for you. Check 'em all out after the jump. … Read More
The Year in Film: 2011′s Best Performances
For all the remakes and reboots and 3-D blockbusters, 2011 was a great year for film actors, with a wealth of terrific performances for us to choose from. What's more, in sharp contrast to most years in recent memory, there was a bumper crop of terrific roles for great actresses — a trend that we'd like to see stick around for a while. After the jump, we'll tell you about some of the best performances we saw this year, and why we're still talking about them. … Read More
Female Performances Dominate This Year's New York Film Festival
The 49th annual New York Film Festival drew to a close last night with screenings of The Descendants, the new (and rather wonderful) comedy/drama from director Alexander Payne (Sideways, Election, About Schmidt). Its centerpiece performance is a magnificent, nuanced turn by George Clooney, but there's another one well worth mentioning: that of Shailene Woodley, the heretofore-unknown-to-your-author actor (she apparently co-stars on The Secret Life of the American Teenager, whatever the hell that is) who plays his 17-year-old daughter Alexandra. Woodley appears in nearly as much of the picture as Clooney, in a role just a complicated and difficult as his, and in scene after scene, she just nails it. Woodley's complex (and relatively unsung, thus far anyway) performance puts a final spotlight on perhaps the most encouraging trend at this year's NYFF: a rich assortment of extraordinary female performances. … Read More

BYOD: A Cost-Saving Must-Have for Your Enterprise
If last year could be marked by anything, it was the BYOD craze. Companies across the globe increasingly invested in consumer products, and allowed their employees to bring their own devices into the office. That has been good news for Apple, Samsung and other consumer-focused vendors, and has dramatically changed the face of enterprise mobility and computing.
Consumer Products Find a Home in the Enterprise
Consumer products were once banned in the enterprise. CIOs believed that allowing consumer products into the office invited security and productivity issues that couldn't be easily solved, and that the company would lose money as a result. To say that consumerization was a despised, if not evil, term in the enterprise might be an understatement. The very idea of bringing, say, an iPhone into... Read More »

Wind Energy Industry: Turbines Power Down Energy Prices
September 26, 2012
DES MOINES, Iowa - Home and business energy costs have been falling in the Midwest - and the wind industry is claiming partial credit. While it's a win for consumers, says Bob Fagen, a senior associate at Synapse Energy Economics, other energy sectors aren't pleased, and that's why they've begun a campaign to try to derail renewal of the wind-production tax credit, which is pending in Congress. "When the wind is built and is available, it runs. When it runs, that generally means that natural gas-fired or coal-fired plants do not run. So, it puts downward pressure on prices." Iowa's wind-power production is at more than 4,500 megawatts - enough for about 1.1 million homes. The production tax credit has been in place for about 20 years, and has seen bipartisan support, although this year it's being debated on the campaign trail. Fagen says the wind-production tax credit isn't a loan or a "freebie" because there is no benefit until after production happens - and that means manufacturing jobs. "The real issue is that wind is a clean, inexpensive energy resource - homegrown - and it makes a ton of sense to continue to promote the wind industry." Exelon Corp. is urging that the credit be discontinued, saying government funding should go to research and not production of components.
Richard Alan, Public News Service - IA
The Iowa Wind Energy Association and 10 co-sponsors present Iowa Wind Energy Day at the World's Greatest County Fair on Sunday, September 9, 2012. The day will focus on Iowa's national leadership in the wind energy industry and will provide educational and interactive exhibits to explain the industry to fairgoers.
Iowa is the first state in the nation to exceed 20% of all electrical generation from wind, is first in the number of wind related jobs and wind manufacturing businesses. Landowners in Iowa are paid an annual lease payment for each turbine on their land and receive a combined $14.5 million annually. Property tax assessed value in counties with wind turbines has increased by almost $3 billion dollars providing increased tax revenues to county and school district budgets annually.
The wind energy organizations and businesses co-sponsoring Iowa Wind Energy Day include Anemometry Specialists, American Wind Energy Association, Rock Island Clean Line Transmission, Iowa Lakes Electric Cooperative, ITC Midwest, EDP Renewables, USDA Rural Development, KidWind, Northwest Iowa Community College and NextEra Energy Resources. All co-sponsors and the Iowa Wind Energy Association will have informative and educational exhibits available just south of the Events Center and between the midway and grandstand.
Stop by our exhibits and sign up for door prizes, receive free wind energy promotional items, view an actual turbine's operation, see high voltage protective equipment, bid at our silent auction, talk to wind farm developers, operation and maintenance workers and educators about opportunities in the wind energy industry. You can see a small wind turbine display, learn about grants available for wind turbine projects and see high voltage DC electrical components.
West Branch,IA–ACCIONA Windpower today announced that it will install two of its AW-3000/116, 3MW wind turbines this year in Cedar County, Iowa. The groundbreaking project, called Pioneer Grove, will be the first installation of the game-changing machine in North America.
"The AW-3000 turbines at Pioneer Grove will produce more power, more efficiently than anything we've installed before." said Joe Baker, CEO of ACCIONA Windpower North America. "With technology like the AW-3000, we can drive down energy costs and begin to take full advantage of our clean energy resources."
The Pioneer Grove Wind Farm is located nearest to the town of Mechanicsville, Iowa. Construction is expected to be complete in the second half of 2012. The renewable energy power plant has a long-term power purchase agreement with Central Iowa Power Cooperative (CIPCO).
In 2011 ACCIONA introduced the enhanced AW-3000 machine with a 116-meter rotor diameter. The product launch touted the machine's industry-leading power curve and the best cost of energy at sites with medium wind speeds, as well as its exceptional performance at almost any site, globally.
The Pioneer Grove Wind Farm will utilize two different tower technologies, which are both suitable for the AW-3000. One tower will be constructed to a height of 92 meters, using steel, while the other tower uses an innovative concrete solution and will reach a height of 100 meters.
The Pioneer Grove Wind Farm is less than 20 miles from ACCIONA's wind turbine assembly plant in West Branch, Iowa. The facility employs more than 100 workers to assemble Acciona wind turbines.
"The State of Iowa is a great place to do business," said Baker. "Governor Branstad, Iowa Economic Development Authority Director Debi Durham, and the leaders of Cedar and Johnson Counties have set new standards for how government and business can work together to achieve the common goals of creating new jobs and clean energy for Iowa and Iowans."

Create completely original designs by using your airbrush in a variety of ways. If you want a more personalized portrait cake than a simple replication of a photo, use your airbrush to fill in an outlined portrait. The cake will have a handcrafted look without your decorator having to know how to draw. Airbrushing can also enhance copyrighted, pre-printed images. Whether using the airbrush to create a design from scratch or simply adding details to an existing image, the end result will keep customers coming back to your bakery for their special occasion cakes.
For a portrait cake, make a photocopy of the original photo. Place the copied picture on top of a thin sheet of sugar paste or rolled fondant that is resting on a piece of cardboard. Lightly trace the outline of the person with a pencil. Do not press too hard because you do not want to poke holes in the fondant.
Use brown food coloring and a fine paintbrush to paint the traced lines onto the fondant. Keep the photo in view for reference.
To airbrush skin, go from light colors to dark. Start with yellow to add warmth to the skin, and lightly coat all areas of the skin. Then, add the orange or flesh tone color to give depth to the skin.
Finally, use brown airbrush color to add shadows to the skin as well as color in the hair. When airbrushing hair, use brown color under black to create dark hair, yellow color under orange for red hair and yellow color under brown for blonde.
Fill in the lips using a little red airbrush color. Use less color for men than you would for women. Add blue color in the background. A cool color, such as blue, adds dimension to the warm skin tone and frames the face well.
Lightly airbrush purple color around the outline of the portrait to really make the portrait pop. Use a paintbrush to add the eye color as well other details, such as eyebrows. Use a cut paper tube and white icing to highlight the lips and eyes.
Pipe simple top and bottom shell borders on a quarter sheet cake. Then, airbrush the borders yellow and overspray with green. The two-tone technique makes the color more vibrant, and by only airbrushing the sides at the top and bottom, you give the illusion of additional height.
Slide the portrait off the cardboard and onto the cake.
Use a cut paper tube to outline the top border with green gel. With a shell tip and white icing, pipe a simple border around the fondant sheet.
Use a cut paper tube and black icing to pipe an appropriate message. This cake was made in remembrance of John Roeser Jr., the second-generation owner of Roeser's Bakery in Chicago.
For a Care Bears™cake, pipe simple top and bottom borders on a quarter sheet cake. Then place a pre-printed decal in the center of the cake. Use a spatula to smooth the design and remove air bubbles.
Airbrush a rainbow over the decal, starting with yellow on the outside of the rainbow. Then, add orange, pink, purple and blue under the yellow to complete the rainbow.
Cut a cloud shaped stencil out of plastic and add tape to the back as a handle. Place the stencil on the cake and airbrush blue around it. If the buttercream on the cake is still cold, the stencil will stick less. Continue to move the stencil over the cake top until it is covered with clouds.
Use a cut paper tube and white icing to outline the decal. With a plain round tip, pipe bubbles for clouds at the end of the airbrushed rainbow. Then, airbrush the bottom border green and the top border pink. Under the pink band, airbrush yellow followed by blue to fill the sides of the cake with color.
With a cut paper tube, pipe an appropriate message with red gel. On the sides of the cake, pipe a series of yellow 'c's using a cut paper tube. Then, add alternating pink and blue teardrops between the loops of the 'c's. By adding a simple side decoration, you add value to the cake.

Chinese slave wages aren't that high yet.
Apple can't - won't - lower its price as its price is what gives it its kudos and exclusivity - people buy iphones and other Apple kit much in the same way that Brits buy houses.
(Did you see what I did there?)
There is this great belief in tech companies - I have witnessed it for 20 years now - that they see the entire 7 billion of us as purchasers of their kit. It has been said time and time before with all sorts of IT gadgets and IT services.
Those geeks in Silicon Valley - I was one - really do not understand the planet at all outside of California. They can't get it into their heads that billions of people are struggling each day for clean water and finding something to eat. Yet they include such people in their potential sales for iphones, window phones, android phones, etc.
Yes, some day in some Star Trek future every one will have a mobile device of some kind, but I think we need to think about hunger and thirst and poverty before we add those billions to future sales growth.

One of my principals shared a comment at a faculty meeting: School is where old people do most of the work while the young people sit back and watch. His point was to start a discussion of how (and why) to engage students actively and help them assume more responsibility for their own learning.
During some recent class visits, I saw the students excitedly talking about the end of the school year and the upcoming vacation. Meanwhile, the science teacher noted that she would be busy over the weekend preparing study guides for her students to prepare for the final exam. I assumed the teacher already understands the concepts, so I wondered why the students weren't the ones preparing for the test? During each unit, if students created a guide related to the learning goals (e.g., a concept map, outline, questions, summary) in their notebooks or in an electronic portfolio, by the end of the course they would have their own documents for review. The teacher could certainly guide a review, but the students would already have the material in their own words and style.
I visited another classroom that was full of student-generated materials. For example, rather than teacher-printed cards on the word wall, students had made them and included a drawing with each word. They weren't as neat or uniform as entries created by a teacher, but the students had input into the process. The classroom had many other student-created posters, rather than commercially prepared ones. During the lessons, the teacher refers to these to illustrate or explain concepts.
Teachers spend a lot of time on bulletin boards, but most of these showcase the teacher's creativity, not the students' work. One of my colleagues started the school year with blank bulletin boards. During each unit, students contributed to them—vocabulary cards, reports, news and current events, photographs, maps, drawings, etc.
In conversations with students, one thing that they said they really disliked was copying notes verbatim from the board or projector screen. Notetaking is a lifelong skill, so we're doing students a favor when we help them learn how to take their own notes and then use the information in other contexts. In my own classes, however, I found that students needed modeling, guided practice, and feedback to develop notetaking skills.
I've been following and learning more about the "flipped classroom" and how teachers are creating videos for their students. This isn't a new thing–I grew up watching Mr. Wizard on television as he demonstrated and explained science phenomena (an ancestor of Bill Nye). In his videos, children were part of the story. They asked questions and assisted in the demonstrations. Many videos that I've reviewed for SciLinks are lectures by talking heads or narrated PowerPoints. I wonder if students would be more interested if other students were in the videos with the teacher—or what if students created the videos with the guidance of the teacher?
Speaking of students creating media, I recently came across The Fireside Book Chat, a library of podcasts of 5-minute book reviews by high school students. In the one I randomly selected, the student admitted he had not finished the book yet. Rather than berate the student, the teacher asked about what he had read so far and they discussed predictions about the rest of the book.
Students demonstrating their learning by creating materials to help other students learn is a win-win experience for all.

(CNN) -- Tim Hetherington, an esteemed photojournalist and an Oscar nominee for a gritty and harrowing documentary about the Afghan war, was killed in the war-torn Libyan city of Misrata, the president of the agency that represented him said Wednesday.
Other photographers were reportedly hurt in the incident that killed him. Panos Pictures, which employed Hetherington, confirmed that the photographer's family had been notified.
"We're still trying to figure out front lines or house," said CSPR agency president Cathy Saypol in reference to where he was when killed. "The only thing we know is that he was hit by an RPG with the other guys." An RPG is a rocket-propelled grenade.
Hetherington's last Twitter entry appears to have been made on Tuesday: "In besieged Libyan city of Misrata. indiscriminate shelling by Qaddafi forces. No sign of NATO."
A British native who was based in Brooklyn in New York, Hetherington received an Academy Award nomination this year for "Restrepo," a documentary film he co-directed with journalist Sebastian Junger. He also worked in Afghanistan two years ago with CNN's Anderson Cooper and Dr. Sanjay Gupta.
Vanity Fair magazine, where Hetherington was a contributing photographer, described him as "widely respected by his peers for his bravery and camaraderie." Its profile says he had dual U.S. and British citizenship.
"We are saddened beyond words," Saypol told Vanity Fair.
Hetherington spent eight years in West Africa and had reported on social and political issues worldwide, most notably the Liberian conflict.
He gained wide fame for "Restrepo," which chronicles the deployment of a platoon of U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan's Korengal Valley, according to the film's website.
"The movie focuses on a remote 15-man outpost, 'Restrepo,' named after a platoon medic who was killed in action. It was considered one of the most dangerous postings in the U.S. military," his website says.
"This is an entirely experiential film: the cameras never leave the valley; there are no interviews with generals or diplomats. The only goal is to make viewers feel as if they have just been through a 90-minute deployment. This is war, full stop."

Every day in America, people are discovering new and interesting cheese. Twenty-five years ago, except in a few rare instances, the only kinds of cheese Americans could buy were factory-produced cheeses made in huge quantities, and then cut and sealed in plastic before being shipped to the store. Up until recent years, the cheeses available to most Americans were American cheese, bright orange Cheddar, cold-pack cheese, Havarti, Monterey jack, mozzarella, processed cheese, provolone, and Velveeta. And unless you traveled to small pockets of America or abroad, you may not have had a chance to taste anything like Peluso's teleme, Vella Dry Jack, or fresh chèvre. But thanks to a few pioneering American cheese makers and chefs who wanted local sources of French cheeses, the seeds of an American cheese revolution were planted in the early '80s.
At first it was just a matter of making a few select handmade cheeses and fresh chèvre, or fresh goat cheese. But as those cheeses caught on, cheese makers started branching out, making cheeses like crottins, and people who loved cheese started looking for sources of new and unusual cheese. At the same time, innovative retailers started importing more specialty cheeses from Europe, and soon a handful of cheese counters with rotating stocks of a couple hundred handmade specialty cheeses popped up in Michigan, New York City, and the San Francisco Bay Area. Today there are dozens of wonderful cheese counters all over the country, stocked with a hundred or more different types of cheese, all sitting patiently in their spots, surrounded by a flurry of anxious and hurried customers and cheese mongers taking them through tastings and talking about fruity aromas; tangy sharpness; and long, nutty, buttery flavors. These stores have cheese covered in green furry mold; soft, downy sorts of cheese; cheese that looks like it's grown a wrinkled hide; cheese in large flat wheels and small squat cylinders; and some cheese that looks almost exactly like the cheeses you're used to seeing, only different. All of this is terrific news for cheese aficionados, but even better, it's fantastic news for people eager to explore the exciting range of flavors and aromas of artisanal, handmade cheese.
But how does someone used to eating three or four standard cheeses begin? The Everything
Along the way, this book will help you learn a little about how cheese is made, what difference it makes to use milk from different animals, and whether you should be concerned about eating cheese made from raw or pasteurized milk. Then you'll realize there are thousands of variations in cheese-making methods, and all lead to slight variations in aroma, texture, and flavor. You'll learn what it takes to run a good cheese counter and how to buy cheese, and then you'll spend some real time savoring certain aromas, textures, and flavors. You'll travel the world through cheese, be nourished through cheese, laugh about cheese in the media, and learn to care for your cheese at home. You will learn to pair different kinds of cheese with wine, champagne, beer, and spirits; you'll incorporate cheese into every meal; you'll pair different cheeses with sweet and savory food; you'll melt and grill your cheese; you'll use cheese as an ingredient; you'll design stunning platters and plates of cheese; you'll consider turning your cheese hobby into a way of life; and soon you'll be planning every trip around cheese. Really, what could be more fun? Enjoy!

MPs have approved same-sex marriage in England and Wales in a key Commons vote, despite the opposition of almost half the Conservative MPs. The Commons voted in favour of the Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Bill, by 400 to 175, a majority of 225, at the end of a full day's debate on the bill.
Prime Minister David Cameron has described the move as "an important step forward" that strengthens society. Voting lists show that 136 Conservatives opposed the bill.
This figure includes two cabinet ministers - Environment Secretary Owen Paterson and Welsh Secretary David Jones - eight junior ministers, and eight whips.
Of the remaining Conservative MPs, 127 were in favour, 35 did not vote, and five registered an abstention by voting both in favour and against. Junior justice minister Helen Grant said: "As Tories we do differ at times. We have squabbles - we're like any other family."
But she described the legislation as "a major step forward for equality and justice".

Kahr CM9 - Is it the best 9mm for CC purposes?
I am saving my lunch money to buy a 9mm semiautomatic pistol for concealed carry purposes. I have researched many compact and subcompact pistols and have narrowed my selection to these models. Price is not a big concern because personal safety is priceless. Capacity is not an issue because I always carry a spare magazine.
From best to worse: Kahr PM9 or CM9- Simple design, very light, reliable, no safety features, no magazine disconnect, accurate, good sights, good trigger, easy to conceal. Glock 26 - a bit heavier, bulkier, but shares the rest of the attributes mentioned before for the Kahr CM9. Kel Tec PF9 - Same as Kahr but has mixed reviews regarding ejector problems and FTF/FTE issues. Any suggestions or comments will be appreciated...

If slim factor is a must, grab a PM/CM nine and don't look back.

I have a CM9 and it's a great gun. Smooth trigger. Eats anything. Thin. Comfortable to carry. Easy to conceal. Dependable. Built like a tank. Definitely the right choice!

I shot a Kahr CW9 (not CM) and honestly I wasn't blown away. The magazine seemed to be pretty chintzy in quality and the build quality of the gun was not especially great. That said, it did fire without error.
Maybe I just got a well-worn range model, but I'd be interested in comparing the C line to the P line. The G26/27 I have plenty of time with, and it's a very high quality pistol, just a bit bulky. As for the PF9, I'm not especially comfortable with Kel-Tec. Maybe the Ruger LC9, but even it has had troubling extractor issues. Of what you listed I like the G26 best.

It is if that is what you want.
I have a CW9 and though it has been replaced as my usual carry gun, it has been nothing but reliable. I've heard lots of good stuff about the CM9. I decided I really wanted a DAO hammer-fired gun with a bit more capacity, so I went for a Kel-Tec P-11. I don't pocket-carry, so it works really well for me IWB. |

I'd go with the Kahr if you want a single stack, or Glock if you don't mind the extra width. I own two Kahrs, and I have yet to find a DA trigger that I like more than them.

I forgot to mention I would carry the pistol in a pocket, ankle or inside the waist holster, depending on the type of clothes I am wearing at any given time.

Try a Sig P290, its tiny and accurate and its a SIG so its hard to go wrong.

Kinda pricey, but the Robaugh (sp) pocket 9mm might be more suitable. Depends on your pocket.

Bad thing about Rohrbaugh, other than the price and waiting list, is that they don't recommend shooting them much. Now, that may not bother some, but some like to shoot their carry guns quite a bit. They are neat little guns, though. I had a chance to fondle one a while back. It was used but unfired and sold for $1,299 within a couple of days of going on the shelf.

I was recently looking for a small 9mm which could fit in a pocket and which would totally disappear in a tuckable IWB. After a lot of research I found several guns which would be good for the role, but decided I wanted a CM9 and searched for a local gunshop that had one.
When I found a shop that had one, I went there specifically to get the CM9. At the store, I checked out several small 9mm's back to back (the CM9, LC9, P290, PF-9, and Nano). After checking them out back to back, I ended up going home, not with the CM9, but with the SIG P290. It is heavier than the CM9 so it isn't quite as good as a pocket gun, but then any 9mm won't disappear like a small .380 will. It does work with a good holster, and it completely disappears with a good IWB holster. I love the P290's night sights, the extra weight makes it handle recoil quite well for a small gun, and so far it has been 100% reliable with any ammo I've put through it. Due to the steel frame J-frame comparable weight (near the limit for pocket carry), I decided to also pick up the Pf-9 or the CM9 for times I wanted something sized between my P290 and my LCP. Once again, upon checking out all the options side by side and dry firing them, I went home with something else (the Pf-9), and if I do eventually get a Kahr it won't be one of the pocket 9's (probably a K9 or K40). So, while the PM9 and CM9 are terrific guns, I'm not sure I agree that they are the best 9mm. They are darned good guns (my best friend had an MK9 which he traded on a PM9 and they were both great guns), but there are quite a few terrific guns in this niche any one of which could be a good choice. |

Then yes, the CM9's the way to go. I did a review here a few weeks ago (Here's the review link). It's a great gun. Check out the review for some detailed info. |

While I don't own one, I handle the CW9 on a daily basis at work, have fired them, and have gotten feedback from buyers. I have owned the PF-9 and the LC9. I've handled the Shield, etc.
PF9 is garbage. Way too many owners (including me) experience FTEs. LC9 trigger is generally reviled, and I personally hated it. The LC9 is very reliable, so there's a plus. The CW9 is my favorite single stack. I would carry that, if I carried a single.

You really need to check out te Walther PPS. To me, it is the perfect 9mm concealed carry gun.

I'm a fan of the PPS as well--it's an excellent gun but I think it prints too much in most clothing for pocket carry. But that's going to vary person to person depending on body type and clothing...

If the CM9 is anything like my PM9 - then it is the way to go. I looked long and hard at a small 9 and the Ruger and PF9 small 9mms [didn't like them at all]. The Ruger PPS looks intriguing.
I love my PM9. I got the version that has the manual safety. EXCELLENT small 9 and 100% reliable. |

ll agree, for single stack Kahr wins my vote.
I carri double though. Glock, but lots of good options out there.

I don't know if the CM9 is the best for concealed carry but it is very good and satisfied my need for a pocket/compact single stack 9mm that is reliable and is shootable. It is also reasonably priced which is always nice
Jim's Rules of Carry: 1. Any gun is better than no gun. 2. A gun that is reliable is better than a gun that is not. 3. A hole in the right place is better than a hole in the wrong place. 4. A bigger hole is a better hole. |

If you like the Kahrs, give the Bersa BP9CC a fair shake. A single-stack 9 less than an inch wide with a full hand grip that's still easily concealable under a thin tshirt.

If you want thin
You should consider the M&P shield I had a CM9, and tried to fall in love with it, but the long trigger and Reset made double taps (something important for a small caliber like a 9, very tough to do) I also was honest with myself on how fast I could draw the CM9 from a Pocket. (look up Tuller drill) I wouldnt consider any auto 9 to be a viable fast pull from a pocket A small revolver is so much better in that role. (LCR size) I now exclusively carry IWB, and the thin of the Shield makes it Very comfortable, and a quick draw from IWB

This from Patricia Rowe-Seale, Audit Portfolio Director, CIBC FirstCaribbean International Bank as she addressed the 2011 Research Grants launch at the Cave Hill Campus of the University of the West Indies (UWI) recently.
Rowe-Seale noted that the current economic climate meant that, "Private sector companies, including the financial services sector, will need to be even more proactive in developing and tailoring products and services that best suit the evolving needs of their clients. It also means that we all have a vested interest in maintaining the buoyancy of our economies and that we must all work together to achieve this."
CIBC FirstCaribbean has provided US$62,500.00 to fund research over the next year, which is being undertaken by six academics across each of UWI's three campuses. The research spans a diverse range of topics including: A Cross-border Comparison of the Use and Application of Marketing Research Capabilities within the Caribbean Banking Sector.
At the launch, CIBC FirstCaribbean presented Barbadian, Dr. Jonathan Lashley, Research Fellow, Sir Arthur Lewis Institute of Social and Economic Studies with US $25,000.00 to fund his year-long study - Joining the Second Revolution: From Microcredit to Micro-financial Services in the Caribbean. The research will take an exploratory look at whether the implementation of micro-financial services to the poor is a viable option both commercially and as a tool in the eradication of poverty.
Dr. Lashley thanked the Bank as well as UWI for their support of the study. He noted that there were high levels of 'bankarisation' in the region, with, for example, some 66% of persons involved in the credit union movement in Barbados. However, lower-income earners, tended to use their savings as insurance rather than for productive purposes such as education and investment due to traditional insurance being perceived as bureaucratic, expensive and not able to accommodate the high-risk nature of the poor.
Dr. Lashley expressed the hope that through the project, the commercial needs of both financial institutions and the economically vulnerable would be addressed. The project will take place in two phases with a Demand Study followed by a Commercial Feasibility study. Some 300 persons will be targeted through a household survey. The findings will be disseminated regionally and will be widely accessible to all, he added.
The research initiative stems from the Memorandum of University between the Bank and UWI and signals, noted Rowe-Seale, "Our mutual recognition that an important contribution can be made to Caribbean development if a research culture can be fostered that brings together the interests of academia and practitioners in the banking sector."
Dr. George Belle, Dean of the Faculty of Social Sciences in thanking CIBC FirstCaribbean noted that UWI's partnering with the private sector demonstrated national engagement as well as advanced research and innovation.
