Europe fails to deliver on aid reforms at major summit
The world's biggest aid donor, the European Union, was sidelined at the High Level Forum on Aid Effectiveness taking place in Busan, South Korea from 29 November – 1 December. The EU gives over €53billion a year to developing countries, that's over 50% of global aid.
Justin Kilcullen, President of CONCORD, the European NGO confederation for relief and development, said: "The European Union was a ghost at the global aid summit. Despite contributing €53billion to development aid a year, the EU allowed a watered down agreement on global aid reform to accommodate geopolitical agendas. European Member States were fragmented and EU leadership suffered. We are concerned that several important measures such as co-operation between developing countries -South South cooperation - ended up only being proposed on a voluntary basis as the final outcome document reveals. If the EU had of stepped up its game, Busan could have delivered stronger results for global development."
Oxfam spokesperson Farida Bena said: "This is a time to make the aid the EU gives better, not worse. We are hugely disappointed at the EU's lack of leadership here. The EU has not been constructive – it should have supported efforts to improve the effectiveness of European aid."

Habit reversal is a promising behavioral therapy to help reduce tics. Habit reversal training (HRT) is a behavior therapy that has helped people who have hair pulling (trichotillomania), nail-biting, thumb-sucking, and tics associated with Tourette's disorder.
As with most therapies, it's helpful if your child agrees to treatment. Ask your child if he or she wants help to manage tics. This is a good, first step in letting your child feel that he or she has a part in treatment.
With your help, HRT may help your child:
Families learn HRT from a qualified health professional who has experience with Tourette's disorder and the therapy. Do not use habit reversal training without proper guidance.
After you and your child learn what to do, you and your child will practice the techniques and responses daily at home and write about his or her progress. Set up a time and place to do habit reversal. Your child will not be able to monitor his or her tics throughout the entire day. Help your child practice in public places, if needed. Your child needs praise and support to keep doing the training. It's important to praise your child when he or she uses the treatment techniques. This way, your child receives praise for doing something he or she can control (using treatment techniques) rather than not doing something he or she cannot control (ticing). Relaxation techniques may also help your child succeed with HRT.
Many children and teens will notice a decrease in their tics within a couple of days. But the greatest change from using these habit reversal procedures occurs during the second and third month. Don't give up after only a couple of days or weeks.

Other coating systems have a hard time measuring up to polyurea when it comes to attainable physical properties. Polyurea outperforms traditional coating systems throughout the product lifecycle.
Polyureas are recommended for lining large diameter pipes, manholes, clear wells and process tanks for both potable water and non-potable water, basins and reservoirs, lift stations and reserve fire water tanks.
Polyurea can provide a flexible, durable, weather-tight and traffic- resistant seal for all types of building joints, such as expansion joints and control joints in masonry floors, perimeter joints, panels and doors, and water reservoirs.

Hurtigruten (meaning "fast route" in Norwegian) began life in 1893 as a scheduled means of transportation between cities, towns and islands along a 1,500-mile coastline between Bergen in the south and Kirkenes some 240 miles above the Arctic Circle. The service operates daily throughout the year with a fleet of eleven ships operating both northbound and southbound. Until 2007, the line was known outside of Norway as the Norwegian Coastal Voyage.
Hurtigruten Cruise Highlights
Why Go?
Varied and often spectacular scenery takes center stage on coastal voyages
Norwegian city and town visits are close-up and personal
Relatively small size engenders camaraderie among passengers
Find a Cruise
With the passage of time, the ships' accommodations became more comfortable to appeal to those wishing a coastal cruise experience; the cabins, while simply furnished, are comfortable, most with twin beds and all with private facilities (Lofoten excepted). Most of the fleet offers a similar standard of accommodations, though the tonnages vary. Though comfortable and stylish in the case of the most recent builds, these ships lack many of the trappings emblematic of cruising: casinos, organized activities, entertainment, multiple dining choices, etc. In Hurtigruten's own words, Mother Nature provides the entertainment, and interaction with fellow travelers and spectacular scenery are the main draws.
The ships carry freight and vehicles, as well as passengers, and time in port varies, ranging from a half hour (or less) in most small towns up to a few hours in major population centers. The northbound and southbound itineraries are not identical, so a port visited during the night on the northbound route might be visited more conveniently during the day going southbound.
Hurtigruten also operates MS Fram, an expedition cruise vessel that cruises to Northern Europe, Iberia, the Mediterranean, Svalbard (Spitsbergen), Iceland, Greenland, Transatlantic, South America and Antarctica. In 2016, it will be joined by a second expedition ship, MS Midnatsol, which will redeploy for the Antarctic season in late 2016.
Top Hurtigruten Ships
Cruise Line Fleet
Hurtigruten ships provide a comfy home while touring Norway's charming cities, towns, islands and mountain scenery. Atmosphere onboard is casual, as these ships are on a mission to transport freight and traveling locals in addition to the international mix of passengers making a cruise out of it. Most of the all-Norwegian crew speak English, many fluently. Tipping is optional, though many will remember the dining staff. On the expedition ship Fram, the line recommends 50 kroner per person, per day.
Dining, with meals included for full one-way and roundtrip passengers, takes place in a single restaurant. Breakfast and lunch are open-seating buffets with a good selection of tasty Norwegian and international selections. Dinners are set-time, reserved-seat, three-course meals. Special diet requests should be made in advance. A 24-hour cafe is pay-as-you-go, most often used by those making short voyages. Liquor is highly taxed, and passengers may bring onboard their own alcohol supply for consumption in cabins.
Apart from summertime departures with an occasional musical group aboard, there is no scheduled entertainment. The Arctic Circle crossing ceremony can be a rousing show for those chosen by King Neptune as victims (ice water initiation) and others watching. Mostly, everyone eyes the constantly changing scenery from the decks or in the nicely furnished observation lounges and midship lounge bars, while some also read and play games. Norwegian paintings and sculpture attractively decorate the entire fleet.
An extensive program of tours, some geared to the seasons, include city walking tours, museum and church visits, birding, dog sledding, kayaking, Lapland (Sami) cultural tours, and half-day trips to the North Cape. All tours may be pre-booked online.
Fellow Passengers
Norwegians are mostly aboard to travel point-to-point and to attend onboard conferences, with the next largest nationality being German, then British, other Europeans, Americans and Australians. Mid- to large-size groups may be aboard. Most are well traveled and sophisticated, yet unpretentious individuals who are content to enjoy the spectacular scenery and picturesque communities. Many will be able to speak decent English. The average passenger age is around 50, with families few and far between. However, one of the charms of these voyages is that the passenger load changes often with point-to-point travelers embarking and disembarking along the way.
Hurtigruten Fleet
Hurtigruten's fleet includes 13 ships, broken down into five different classes or categories. The passenger totals are full capacity.
The newest ships plying the Norwegian coast are the three "Millennium Class" ship: MS Midnatsol, MS Finnmarken and MS Trollfjord. These ships, the largest in the fleet, were built between 2002 and 2003, measure approximately 16,000 tons and carry between 820 and 1,000 passengers. They boast Internet cafes and free Wi-Fi, 24-hour cafeterias, suites (including some with balconies), Jacuzzis, swimming pools, libraries, shops, conference rooms, playrooms, laundry facilities and advanced propulsion systems.
Six "Contemporary Ships" -- MS Nordnorge, MS Polarlys, MS Nordkapp, MS Nordlys, MS Richard With and MS Kong Harald -- were built between 1993 and 1997. They each gross about 11,200 tons and carry about 620 passengers. Facilities include a few suites, Internet cafes and free Wi-Fi, 24-hour cafeterias, conference rooms, shops, fitness rooms, libraries, playrooms and laundry facilities.
One "Mid-Generation Ship," MS Vesteralen, dates from the early 1980's. The ship carries a little more than 300 passengers and measures about 6,250 tons. It was refurbished in 1995. Facilities include a glass-enclosed panorama lounge, Internet cafe and free Wi-Fi, conference room, laundry facilities, playroom and shop.
The oldest ship in the fleet is the only "Traditional Ship," 2,621-ton, 340-passenger MS Lofoten, built in 1964 and refurbished in 2003 with a cafe, shop and laundry facilities. Free Wi-Fi will come in late 2013.
In 2007, the line introduced a deluxe, new "Expedition Ship," 11,647-ton, 318-passenger MS Fram, built for exploring Greenland and for lengthy pole-to-pole voyages. Fram is for soft adventure fans and carries small landing crafts that enable passengers to visit remote locations. Facilities include suites (some with balconies), saunas, Jacuzzis, a fitness room, shops, lecture facilities, an Internet cafe and medical facilities.
In 2015, the line announced the acquisition of a new expedition ship which has been given the temporary name of MS Norway Explorer. Built in Portugal in 2009, the 7,025-ton, 320-passenger ship will be extensively refurbished both inside and out, including the addition of an ice-strengthened hull for Arctic waters. The ship will come into service in 2016 and will replace MS Midnatsol on the Norwegian coastal cruises (Midnatsol will join Fram in Antarctica).

By Jack Swenson, Lindblad Expeditions photo instructor. This is a dispatch from one day in the Mala Mala Game Reserve in South Africa during a 2012 Lindblad Expeditions & Bushtracks photo safari by private air.
Leopard & Cub
We began another beautiful morning at Mala Mala searching for lions that had been calling at dawn across the river from the Main Camp. Soon we got a radio call that Keith (the Main Camp Manager) had just sighted a leopard and cub from the camp's deck. We turned and headed to the edge of the river in the vicinity where they had been seen. When we found the mother and cub, they were in the shade behind vegetation near a quiet pool. We waited patiently, and soon the mother got up and began walking south along the shore. Our guide, Sean, moved the vehicle beyond them to an area where he suspected they might come up the bank. As they ascended the embankment, they came right into the morning sunlight and walked straight towards our vehicle. It was a stunning moment, and the view of their faces captured the seriousness of the mother (who had had her kill stolen the night before) and her charmingly innocent looking cub. As we followed them, this inquisitive cub wanted to climb up everything it passed; rocks, trees, and nearly onto the bonnet of our vehicle too.
Lions Ambushing an Impala
In classic Mala Mala fashion, after spending some quality time watching a leopard mother and cub, we let other vehicles have time with them as we headed off for our morning coffee and snacks. Afterwards, we started heading south to view the hippo pool, but got delayed by elephants clogging the road near the river. As we considered our options, a radio call said that lions were nearby, so we turned back northward. We found members of the Styx Pride, though it was now mid-to-late morning and the lions were alternately drinking at a pool and moving into the shade. As we were watching several adult females and large young, one female headed off into the bush, noticeably in stalking mode. We tried to follow, but lost her in the dense thorn bush. Our guide, Sean, circled back around to the other pride members who were still in the shade of a large tree where we had left them. They began moving, and occasionally looking interested in something farther ahead of them in the bush. We followed and when they paused, Sean slowed and parked us within view of them. As we watched, suddenly several lions jumped up and quickly headed away into the bush. An impala came careening past us, swiftly disappearing into the bush, and at that same moment the lions ambushed a second impala only about ten meters from our vehicle. I swung my camera, aiming at the thrashing impala, and began shooting as the lions swiftly pulled it to the ground. The impala made this last gasp with no chance of escape. I only got a few frames before the antelope was completely surrounded by the hungry pride. Within minutes, the impala was devoured.
Jack & Rikki Swenson sail aboard our ships as naturalists and certified photo instructors, and they'll lead three Lindblad Expeditions & Bushtracks photo safaris in 2013. Two still have space available. You can see more of Jack & Rikki's work online at Expedition Gallery.

Xirrus Empowers Channel Partners With Next-Generation Partner Program
THOUSAND OAKS, CA — (Marketwire) — 11/08/12 — Xirrus(R), the leader in high-performance wireless networks, today announced the Xirrus Alliance Network (XAN) to empower channel, managed services, consulting services, and technology partners of wireless network technology to deliver best-in-class mobile solutions for the enterprise. The XAN is built on a two-tier model, with resellers purchasing from Xirrus authorized distributors, gaining substantial benefits, support, and deal opportunities to increase their wireless networking business. Differentiating the program, Xirrus has signed a distribution agreement in North America with Arrow Enterprise Computing Solutions, a business segment of Arrow Electronics Inc., that provides Xirrus resellers with presales technical support, order fulfillment management, bundled solutions, customized configurations, business planning, and flexible financing, along with other services.
The XAN channel partner program is designed to attract premier partners seeking world-class wireless technology for further development of their Wi-Fi business offerings. The program uses [Relayware's] single sign-on Partner Relationship Management (PRM) tool for all partner communications and interactions with Xirrus. It provides partners with powerful self-management and communication selection capabilities and eliminates the administrative burden for deal registration, special pricing approvals, and lead follow-up management of traditional partner programs. The PRM also positions the partner as an integral part of the Xirrus demand generation programs with fast access to sales-ready leads and opportunities. XAN channel partners have access to a wealth of sales tools like video case studies, industry and solution briefs, specialized channel-ready campaigns, vertical-marketing tools, a competitive TCO tool, and advanced competitive 802.11ac program pricing.
"For providers that introduce a program structure that rewards and recognizes channel partners (including resellers) for the value they bring to the business for investments in gaining competencies, specialization and vertical expertise, it is a very different model than the volume-based programs seen across the industry today," said Tiffani Bova, research vice president, Gartner. "By tying those competencies and specializations with partner levels, providers are able to clearly understand the true capabilities of their ecosystem without being distracted by sales volumes. At the end of the day, it is all about putting the right partners with the right skills in front of the right customers at the right time."(1)
"As the heavy load of BYOD and rich media crushes traditional wireless networks, we continue to see mounting interest in our high-performance WLAN solutions," said Shane Buckley, Xirrus CEO. "Xirrus looks forward to drawing from Arrow ECS's broad community of vertical-market solution providers to extend our market share across North America. This agreement aligns with our commitment to continue expanding the Xirrus Alliance Network Global Partner Program."
The XAN addresses a common issue with conventional reseller partner programs, in which new service introductions result in growing administrative complexity as well as revenue and margin erosion. By comparison, Xirrus has pioneered a single sign-on for all partner services usingRelayware: account management, quotes, deal registration, training, marketing development funds, and product information. With a single sign-on and one user interface, partners slash administrative time, increase productivity, and focus their efforts on sales and market development rather than administration. Furthermore, partners gain immediate access to Xirrus' Marketo marketing automation platform, an advanced software tool for channel-centric demand generation support and lead management.
The partner program leverages Xirrus' high-performance, award-winning WLAN technology that consistently appears on the top-three list of many prospective customers during their final decision-making process. Arrow ECS identifies Xirrus wireless technology as the linchpin in its partnership with Xirrus, and a catalyst for empowering resellers to increase market share.
"Adding Xirrus' high-performance WLAN technology suite to our strong network solutions portfolio strengthens Arrow ECS' leading position in the enterprise network access market," said Joe Burke, vice president, enterprise storage/security virtualization and networking, Arrow ECS North America. "Xirrus will enable our solution providers to deliver a high-performance WLAN offering for customers along the BYOD adoption curve, where mobile applications and cloud-access have 'cut the cord,' making the WLAN the customers' primary connection to their people, their resources, and the Internet."
Wick Hill joined the Xirrus Alliance Network last month as a United Kingdom and German distributor to deliver a powerful, scalable, and trusted wireless solution for their client base.
"Following the announcement of our EMEA distribution agreement with Xirrus last month, we are now very excited to join the Xirrus Alliance Network (XAN) channel partner program," stated Ian Kilpatrick, chairman of Wick Hill Group. "Many vendor channel partner programs are overly complex and require multiple login credentials for the individual channel sales and marketing support functions. The XAN channel partner program provides our VARs access to one easy-to-use integrated system."

The Xirrus wireless solutions provide a vital strategic business and IT infrastructure advantage to the education, healthcare, government and enterprise industries that depend on wireless to operate business-critical applications.

A Family Of One
July 13, 2010
By Amy Farnum
The daughter of two officers in the United States Army, Towson University runner Brandi Gervais has grown accustomed to the family's military lifestyle over the years, but her senior season maybe a bit more challenging as both parents were deployed to Iraq in May.
Gervais was born in Augsburg, Germany when her parents, Chris and Maria, were stationed overseas. Only a year later, Gervais' parents were deployed at the same time to Iraq for the first Gulf War, and Brandi was sent to South Carolina to live with her grandparents.
Since that time, the Gervais family has lived in eight different states and in Germany twice. While Gervais was in eighth grade, the family was living in Germany but both parents were deployed to Turkey - her grandfather came from South Carolina for extended stay to serve as her guardian.
The family returned to the States for Gervais' high school years, landing in Missouri. Gervais always played team sports growing up because it was an easy way of making friends, and was on the volleyball team for the first two years at Waynesville High School - but that was before she caught the running bug.
"My mom started running when she joined the Army and has always been an avid runner," said Gervais. "The summer before my junior year, we spent a lot of time together and we would go out running. It was always our alone time together - and that's how I got hooked."
Gervais decided to give running a shot as a junior, and garnered All-State honors in her first season. As a senior, she finished second at the Missouri 5K State 4A Championships - just four seconds behind the winner. Gervais kept running in college at nearby Southeast Missouri State, earning All-Ohio Valley Conference honors as a freshman after finishing 12th in the league championship meet. But when her parents were relocated again to Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland, Gervais - an only child - transferred to Towson - 45 minutes down the road -- to remain close to them.
With the Tigers, Gervais continued her solid running career, including three top 10 finishes in cross country last season, while carrying a 4.0 GPA - the only upperclassman student-athlete at Towson to do so.
"I think growing up in the military lifestyle I learned to be self-disciplined," said Gervais. "I'll make myself study and do the work, and commit to make the effort and put in the time. My parents also taught me to put all my effort into something, but don't overdo it. You also have to have fun. I think finding that balance has allowed me not to stress out too much."
Gervais also set the Towson indoor track record in the 5,000 with a 17:45.33 last winter, and was named to the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America third team for Track & Field/Cross Country in June.
"She has an incredible work ethic," said Towson coach Roger Erricker. "Most athletes you have to push. Brandi I have to pull back because she always wants to do more. She's highly motivated. For her to stay at the level that she is athletically and academically -- especially now with her parents both in Iraq now -- it is incredible."
This summer, Gervais is adjusting to life with her parents stationed over 6,000 miles away in Baghdad. She is renting an off-campus house with three teammates and taking care of the family's three dogs, while juggling responsibilities as a student-athlete and an academic tutor.
"I thought this time would be the easiest just because I'm older now, but this deployment has been the hardest on me because during the other ones I always had a family member that helped me out and watched over me," said Gervais. "Now, I am completely on my own. Most of my family lives in South Carolina, so this has probably been the roughest one so far."
Her father Chris, a Lt. Colonel, and mother Maria, a Colonel, hardly ever miss one of Gervais' competitions, but despite their physical absence this year, communication amongst the family is the best-ever during this deployment. Gervais' parents rarely get to see each other as they are living at different camps in Baghdad, however, they have been able to keep up with Brandi thanks to advancements in technology.
"E-mail is the easiest way to communicate," said Gervais. "We try to talk, but because of the time difference they can only call me about mid-afternoon and usually I'm working during that time. We just figured out how to use Skype, too."
Gervais' teammates and coaches are acting as her extended family, which is also easing her long separation from her parents, who are scheduled to be back in the United States next June.
"Part of my challenge is to be there for her, and to be sensitive to the situation and it is going to be tough for her," said Erricker. "One thing that will help her through it is that running cross country and track -- we have competitions almost every weekend. That will occupy her mentally."
Erricker has named Gervais captain of the cross country team for the upcoming season as she sets a stellar example on and off the track.
"The cross country team has over a 3.5 GPA, but she sets the standard with a 4.0 for everybody to look to," said Erricker. "The same with running - she puts in the mileage, she never shortchanges it."

Sounds like a bad simulation in the dreamatorium.
Community creator Dan Harmon was ousted as showrunner of the NBC series Friday night, replaced by Happy Endings' alums Moses Port and David Guarascio — except, no one bothered to tell Harmon.
New showrunners to replace Dan Harmon on Community
NBC renewed the critically adored comedy for a 13-episode fourth season last week, though Harmon had yet to sign a new deal keeping him with the series. "I expect Dan's voice to be a part of this show somehow," NBC Entertainment Chief Bob Greenblatt told reporters Sunday. "I'm just not sure if that means him running it day-to-day or him consulting on it."
Harmon took to his blog late Friday night after news of his ouster had broken online — Harmon was even trending worldwide on Twitter because of it — to clear up any misconceptions fans had about his leaving the series. "Why'd Sony want me gone? I can't answer that because I've been in as much contact with them as you have," he wrote. "They literally haven't called me since the season four pickup, so their reasons for replacing me are clearly none of my business. Community is their property, I only own ten percent of it, and I kind of don't want to hear what their complaints are because I'm sure it would hurt my feelings even more now that I'd be listening for free."
NBC boss says Community may get new showrunner, denies this is 30 Rock's last season
Harmon went on to say that Greenblatt misspoke when saying that he would still be a part of the show. "I think he meant to say he's sure cookies are yummy, because he's never called me once in the entire duration of his employment at NBC," he wrote. "He didn't call me to say he was starting to work there, he didn't call me to say I was no longer working there and he definitely didn't call to ask if I was going to be involved. I'm not saying it's wrong for him to have bigger fish to fry, I'm just saying, NBC is not a credible source of All News Dan Harmon."
"If I actually chose to go to the office, I wouldn't have any power there," he continued, later noting that he had already packed up his office days ago. "Nobody would have to do anything I said, ever... I'm not saying you can't make a good version of Community without me, but I am definitely saying that you can't make my version of it unless I have the option of saying 'it has to be like this or I quit' roughly 8 times a day."

Do you think Community will be the same without Harmon?

Growers buying Cargill seeds won't see many changes this spring. But by next year, they can expect more seed choices and a somewhat changed company. Mycogen Seeds, which completed the purchase of Cargill's seed division November 1, recently met with Farm Industry News to outline its plans for integrating the two seed companies.
Combined with Cargill Hybrid Seeds, Mycogen now becomes the third largest seed corn producer in the U.S. In addition, Mycogen now is the largest sunflower seed producer with about 50% of the U.S. business.
Mycogen, an affiliate of Dow AgroSciences, intends to remain a leader in developing value-added traits and biotechnology for corn, sunflowers, canola and cotton. It will continue to market this technology to third parties.
Business as usual. "We need to have a strong seed business to platform our traits," reports W. Pete Siggelko, Dow AgroSciences vice president. New traits from Mycogen will be marketed in Cargill Seed lines and distributed through Cargill dealers along with Cargill's existing lines. This spring, Mycogen and Cargill dealers will sell a few lines from each other's hybrids. But the lines will be limited. Mycogen offers 72 lines this spring and Cargill Seed is selling 146 lines.
In 2002, both companies will go to the marketplace as one company with about 100 different product lines, according to Tim Kroenke, business unit leader, Mycogen Seeds. Market research currently under way should help company officials decide on a brand name. Mycogen owns the right to use the Cargill Seed name for three years.
Mycogen intends to focus business on the Corn Belt and discontinue Cargill Seed work in some southern states.
"I feel we have things in place to be one of the top players in the [corn hybrid] business," says Tom Wiltrout, global business leader, Dow AgroSciences. Cargill Seed was one of the last keys to the company's securing its corn seed future, he adds. Now it will be able to generate hybrids competitively in the marketplace.
Future seeds. Meanwhile, the company hopes to license a new hybrid that combats the European corn borer more successfully than current Bt hybrids. It expects to market it widely in 2002.
Mycogen also anticipates providing a hybrid with resistance to corn rootworm by 2002-2003. Silage remains another area where the company intends to focus breeding efforts.

An IRS Tax Transcript is a document issued by the IRS which provides most line items from your originally filed federal tax return. The two fastest methods to request a transcript are either online at www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript or by calling the IRS at 1-800-908-9946
Tax transcripts issued by the IRS have to be requested after the IRS has accepted and processed your return, which is generally after you have received your refund. After the transcript is requested, the transcript has to be sent via U.S. Postal Service to the residence reported on your federal tax return.
The IRS will only send the IRS Tax Return Transcripts to the address reported on your return. IRS cannot guarantee that your transcript will be forwarded by the U.S. Postal Service.
To update your address with the IRS, please visit https://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc157 or call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040. After changing your address, you will need to wait approximately two weeks for the IRS to update your record before requesting your transcript.
If you have amended your tax return, the changes made will not be reflected on the IRS Tax Return Transcript. You will need to provide the 1040 X which reflects changes made to your originally filed federal tax return. The Financial Aid Office will need BOTH the IRS Tax Return Transcript and the 1040 X.
These can be ordered online at www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript, or requested by phone at 1-800-908-9946.
If you are selected for verification and did not earn enough money to file taxes for the relevant year, you will still need to fill out the verification worksheet. Check the box "will not file and was not required to file." Also complete the IRS 4506-T and submit with copies of W-2's from your employer(s).

Students must be enrolled at least 1/2 time to be eligible for Direct Loans and to keep prior student loans in deferment.
Yes. The Student Accounts Office will send an email stating the type and amount of aid posted. Additionally, you will receive an email if any aid is removed from your account.
Any credit balance created due to excess financial aid funds will be sent to you within 14 days of the funds posting to your student account.
Dropping courses may affect the amount of financial aid awarded and/or posted to a student's account. After a student's course is dropped, the Financial Aid Office will review the aid awarded and make any adjustments as needed. If funds are reduced, the difference will be removed from the student's account.
Many students utilize federal and state sources of funding. When a student withdraws from the university or drops their current course and does not continue in the semester, the Financial Aid Office reviews the account in regards to the federal (Return to Title IV) policy and calculates the amount, if any, that must be returned to the federal or state aid programs. The federal Title IV refund calculation is based on a percentage of attendance completed or the percentage of unearned charges within the term of withdrawal. Students with federal aid who withdraw (or are suspended) after a term begins, but before completing 60% of the term, may require a portion of their federal Title IV funds be returned. The amount to be returned is removed from the student's account and return to the appropriate financial aid programs.
If the returned funds result in a balance on the student's account, a hold will be placed on the student's account and the student will be required to pay the balance in full prior to re-entry to the next term.
Please be aware that if you drop below half time status, lenders will be notified and repayment grace periods will start counting down from your last day of actual attendance. If you had older loans that were in re-payment before returning to school please contact your lender for an updated repayment schedule.
There are 3 requirements that must be maintained to be eligible for financial aid:
At the end of each spring semester, your Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) is evaluated. If students do not meet the SAP requirements, they will be placed on Financial Aid SAP Suspension and will not be eligible for future federal financial aid until SAP requirements have been met. Students may appeal. Please send letter explaining reasons why you did not meet criteria, and what you will do to regain passing status to firstname.lastname@example.com or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Yes. Beginning July 1, 2012, students may receive Pell Grants for 12 semesters or 600%. Those who use less than full-time Pell Grant funds in a semester will be assessed at the fractional enrollment status.
Yes. There are annual loan limits and aggregate loan limits. The maximum amount you can borrow each year in Direct Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans depends on your grade level and on whether you are a dependent student or an independent student. The following table shows the maximum amount of money you may borrow each academic year in Direct Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans. If you do not qualify for subsidized funding the total award will be unsubsidized.
|Annual Limits
|Undergraduate 1st Year
|Subsidized: $3,500
Unsubsidized: $2,000
Total: $5,500
|Subsidized: $3,500

Unsubsidized: $7,000
Total: $12,500
|Subsidized: $0
Unsubsidized: $20,500
Total: $20,500
Regardless of your annual loan limits, you may not borrow in excess of the cost of attendance. Independent loan limits also apply to dependent students whose parents are unable to borrow a PLUS loan.
Federal laws regulate the total aggregate amount of loans you can take out during your undergraduate and graduate careers. Federal loans cannot exceed the limits listed below:
|Total Lifetime Aggregate Limits
|Dependent Undergraduate
|Subsidized: $23,000
Unsubsidized: $8,000
Total: $31,000
|Independent Undergraduate
|Subsidized: $23,000
Unsubsidized: $34,500
Total: $57,500
|Subsidized: $65,500
Unsubsidized: $73,000
Total: $138,500
These aggregate limits include both Direct Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans and any subsidized and unsubsidized Stafford Loans received through the Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program.
If you are awarded a subsidized loan, interest will not accrue on your loan while you are enrolled at least halftime.
If you are awarded an unsubsidized loan, you will be responsible for the interest while in school.
This information can be found on the Federal Direct Lending website: studentaid.ed.gov/sa/types/loans/interest-rates
You must begin repayment of your federal direct student loan once you:
If you have an alternative student loan from a bank, credit union or other lending institution (other than the U.S. Department of Education), contact your lender directly for repayment information.

Take advantage of the rich culture and opportunities around NYC!
In three sentences
MSM has established itself as one of the most respected music conservatories in the world because of its curriculum, faculty, and competitiveness. Although it is sometimes overshadowed by the other school (located at Lincoln Center), MSM cannot be ignored when comparing it with other peer institutions. The supportive community at MSM is unlike any other school I know.

Categories Comments Campus Safety
the campus has a full-time security staff. it is very well maintained when you are in the campus. you must be more careful once outside the campus.
Greek Life
there are no sororities or fraternities on campus.
Clubs and Activities
there are chamber music groups, shows and singing groups.
Great for these types of students
the conservatory is great for musicians and singers looking to improve their musical skills.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
there are no unusual tradtions or locations on campus.
Bang for the buck
well - msm is a good buy but definitely not cheap. the location in new york city makes the cost high.
What to do for fun
there are soo many things to do for fun because of the location being in new york city. there are lots of musical events, museums, libraries and free events in nyc. never a dull moment. there are fantastic restaurants and carry outs too.
Food and Dining
the food is good but everything is ala carte and so you pay as if it was a restaurant. it can add up quickly.
Dorm Life
the dorm is fairly new. there is air conditioning. the bathrooms are on the same floor outside your rooms. the bathrooms are cleaned daily so that the students do not have to do this chore. when you first go there, you usually share a room and then there is lottery when you are already there for the following year which allows you to try to get a single room. i had a single room my last year there and it was beautiful with a wonderful view of manhattan.
Academic Rigor
the academic rigor is high. the classes all relate to your major and this makes it more interesting to study.
Tips for prospective students
my tips for prospective students would be to be very prepared when you go for your audition. the teachers are looking for near perfection in order to get accepted. there are many people interested in going there for all over the world.
In three sentences
the manhattan school of music is an excellent college for any serious student of music. the teachers and students are all very dedicated to music and improving their skills. i attended msm and earned my bachelors of music in piano performance there last year.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students
Students deeply motivated in music.
Tips for prospective students
Prepare to become organized! Organization is a form of discipline you'll need to adopt. Procrastination doesn't fly in a conservatory like MSM, where you're expected to do all of your homework, study, write essays, compose counterpoint, memorize pieces, and practice for your lessons on top of that! Don't fall victim to falling behind - make a planner or calendar and get yourself a watch!
Bang for the buck
Although MSM is on the pricey side, it is well worth the money. You get a one of a kind experience and a look into the life of a professional musician. Each student is assigned their own private teacher for their respective instrument (which tuition covers), which anyone would pay over $100 for outside of the school (per lesson). Your teacher is assigned based on your audition performance and who the faculty finds appropriate to help you grow into a successful MSM alumnus. You can, if things don't work out, change your teacher throughout the course of the school year. The school's aims are to help you, not limit you, so if you establish good relationships with the staff (both of the academic and financial realm), you'll make the most out of your tuition.
Am enjoying being here
Imagine being surrounded by some of the most talented faculty and students in the world in a small building on the Upper West Side: that is Manhattan School of Music. You're constantly being challenged to learn in a positive way. When you're not learning in class, you're learning from your fellow peers. Once you get the hang of how MSM operates, you'll be exposed to the plethora of performance opportunities you'd like to participate in that aren't even in your designated major. I'm studying as a mezzo-soprano in classical voice but I've already participated in contemporary music ensembles, jazz, piano master classes, and a string chamber group. It's impossible to be bored!
Am learning a lot
One of Manhattan School of Music's most admirable traits is the individual attention it assigns to its students. Although all classes in the same field operate on a standardized curriculum, students have the chance to grow on their own. Not only is there room to progress at your own pace, but the passionate faculty motivates you to learn more - and faster! Never have I been so excited to learn as I have at MSM.

Studious, self-driven, fun loving, eager, music-loving...
Tips for prospective students
Make sure to find a private teacher that is good for you - not jut one that you've heard good things about. Shop around. Also, visit the school so there are no surprises. Keep in constant contact with the office of admission and financial aid as well, it will help you if they know you.
Bang for the buck
In general, it's a top-notch school. However, it's not a rich school - there is not a lot of scholarship money, and the pianos are in a constant state of needing repair - like the copy machines, heaters in the main building, and the elevators.
Am enjoying being here
The atmosphere is more relaxed than Juilliard, and that suits me. It's by no means low-stress, but nobody is out to sabotage you and we're all friends with each other. The dorms are pretty nice, and it's New York City! What's not to love?
Am learning a lot
All of the faculty are extremely learned and passionate, eager to pass their knowledge on to students, even if you're not so interested. There are classes in pretty much every musical subject you might want - theory, aural skills, composition, injury prevention, history, general piano, the list goes on and on. My private lesson teacher is AMAZING - really helpful and all around godly, but as I understand it, you would need to do some research to find the best teacher for you.

Kcal ??? Fat ??? Fat(sats) ??? Carbs ???
Over the past few months the brand Zotter has featured pretty frequently on this site, with me reviewing numerous offerings from their Hand-Scooped bars range. With varieties ranging from the likes of the 'Honey Trio', to the more bizarre 'Organic Beer', the flavour combinations have proven to be consistently high quality, so when asked if I fancied trying some of the newer bars, I certainly wasn't going to let the opportunity slip by. One of the newest flavours to make its way over from Austria, was this Zotter Olives with Lemon bar, which came described as 'dark chocolate filled with olives and lemons'. Admittedly this did sound like another odd pairing, but given some of my previous experiences I wasn't ruling out Zotter pulling something out the bag.
As per usual this Hand-Scooped bar came in the standard 70.0g format that I shared amongst a few fellow taste testers. You may have noticed in my previous reviews that I haven't always understood the artistic design work that Zotter use on their wrappers. Having done a little research I have discovered that the wrappers are actually designed by a boyhood friend of Mr Zotter, Andreas Gratze (a trained gastronome and later art school graduate). According to Mr Gratze the designs are supposed to be "witty and artistic" - though I can't say I always 'get' the humour, I have to admit they do make each of the bars very classy and unique.
Back to more important matters, the actual chocolate bar looked pretty similar to several others within the Zotter range, though there was a thin but visible layer of cream filling sitting just below the outer shell on the topside of the bar. When it came to the aromas, the scents on offer were noticeably weaker than previous Zotter chocolates I have tried, and I was very surprised that there was no citrus influences detectable. Before tasting the chocolate I took a quick glance at the ingredients list to get a gauge as to what was going to be in store in the taste. Fourth on the list were the words 'olive oil & olives', followed then by 'lemon & lime concentrate', whilst additional things like chilli, honey and hazelnuts were all listed some way down. At the point I was expecting a very unique and variable flavour experience, however what I tasted was really rather placid. The initial part of the taste showed real promise, with the outer 60% dark chocolate establishing a firm flavours base of rich tasting cocoa. As the soft melting chocolate developed into the smoother centre, the taste unfortunately took a turn for the worse, with an odd bitter tasting fruit influence coming to the fore. The mixture of the savoury tasting olives and the sharp, unsweetned citrus juices just didn't taste that pleasant, and given all the added flavour enhancers stated in the ingredients it was surprisingly one dimensional and left a bitter aftertaste in the mouth.
Overall I guess it is inevitable that with Zotter's willingness to try out of the ordinary flavour combinations there are always going to be a few that aren't the usual high quality. Amongst all of three of us that tried this chocolate, it was unanimously agreed that it simply wasn't very good. I don't know what they were expecting, but I personally was hoping for a sweet lemon curd like filling that was going to nicely play off the richer tasting flavours of the plain dark chocolate. Unfortunately what I experienced with this chocolate was just a bitter tasting fruit hinted centre, that left a pretty unpleasant taste in the mouth. Had it not been for the high quality chocolate that was on offer from the outer proportion of the bar, I think I would have had to have rated this chocolate very low indeed. Normally when I taste chocolates that I don't like as much as I did this one, I usually get rather annoyed at wasting my time reviewing them. This isn't so much the case here though, as I think we can forgive Zotter for getting it wrong on the odd occasion given their willingness to experiment.

By David Lawder and Richard Cowan
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A Republican plan aimed at averting a government shutdown in less than three weeks ran into a wall of opposition on Wednesday from conservatives in the U.S. House of Representatives, and leaders delayed any votes on it until at least next week.
The plan, derided as a "trick" by some conservatives, would have let them cast an essentially symbolic vote to defund "Obamacare" health reforms without risking a shutdown, feared by party leaders who remember the political damage they suffered when government offices shut their doors in the mid-1990s.
The move in the House of Representatives is the latest indication that a revolt by conservative Republicans is complicating Congress' efforts to deal with looming fiscal deadlines over government funding and the federal debt limit.
The delay pushes Congress closer to the September 30 deadline for approving new government funding. With conservatives demanding a tougher stance on defunding and delaying President Barack Obama's signature healthcare legislation, known as "Obamacare," the chances of a shutdown appear greater.
The conflict is part of what is being called by some analysts a "civil war" within the Republican Party, energized in part by rallies and Tea Party gatherings during the August recess and the organizing efforts of the conservative Heritage Action, a sister to the conservative Heritage Foundation.
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor had previously scheduled a vote this week on a continuing resolution to fund the government for 11 weeks coupled with a measure to defund Obamacare before the law's health insurance exchanges launch on October 1.
Conservatives, led by Representative Tom Graves of Georgia, were crafting an alternative plan that would combine the two elements, making it harder for the Democratic-controlled Senate to ignore Obamacare as it moves to fund the government. The alternative one-year plan would also include a year-long statutory delay for implementation of the law.
"I will not surrender in the fight to delay Obamacare for all Americans," said Representative Steve Scalise of Louisiana, who heads a large group of House conservatives called the Republican Study Committee. "We must use every legislative avenue available, through the CR, the debt ceiling, and sequester conversations to free the country from the President's train-wreck of a healthcare law."
Scalise and other conservatives said the Cantor plan lacked teeth and would ultimately allow for passage of a stop-gap spending bill, healthcare money and all.
Republicans say the healthcare law will hurt job creation, while supporters view it as a landmark initiative that will extend health insurance coverage to millions of Americans.
Moderate Republicans who supported the leadership plan said the hard-line stance that conservatives demanded would likely prompt a shutdown of the type that Republicans forced in 1995 and 1996 on then-President Bill Clinton - ultimately helping to seal the Democrat's re-election.
"I think there's a number of people who don't remember when the government was shut down the last time and who carried the burden of that? That was Republicans," said Representative Mike Simpson of Idaho, a member of the House Appropriations and Budget committees.
A House leadership aide said more time was needed to explain the plan to members and answer their questions, adding, "We are talking to people right now."
It would take only 16 Republicans to defect from the party's 233-member majority to sink the Cantor plan. Some 80 House members had signed a letter last month requesting that House Speaker John Boehner put forward a spending measure that defunds Obamacare.
A senior House Democratic aide said all 200 Democrats intended to oppose the defunding plan. Democrats also are opposed, the aide said, because the Republican funding measure would simply extend current discretionary spending levels of $988 billion annually, reflecting automatic, "sequester" across-the-board spending cuts.
Democrats favor higher spending levels and want to replace sequester cuts partly with tax increases on the wealthy.
Opposition to the Cantor plan has been fueled by conservative Tea Party activists and groups that see a denial of money as a last-ditch effort to prevent the healthcare law from taking full effect after some 40 previous House votes to repeal or curtail the law failed since its 2010 passage by Democrats.
The conservative group FreedomWorks on Tuesday blasted House Republican leaders in an Internet posting, saying their plan would ultimately support Democratic policies.
"Apparently House Republican leaders think we're stupid," wrote Dean Clancy, a FreedomWorks vice president, referring to Cantor's plan for moving the CR through the House. "It's a brazen betrayal."
A new poll released by the Pew Research Center illustrated the discontent within the Republican ranks. The survey found that only 27 percent of Tea Party Republicans and those leaning toward the Tea Party approved of their congressional Republican leaders' performance, while 71 percent disapproved.
But Senate Democrats have little problem with the Cantor plan, a senior Democratic aide said, because they can easily defeat the Obamacare provision and pass the spending measure.
The aide said a vote to support Obamacare funding would not be difficult for senators in tight 2014 re-election races because they voted to pass the reforms in 2010.

|We have stayed at this hotel before. I had trouble booking on other sites as hotel was full. Your site showed availability, however our executive room was in the basement and next door to the laundry room which was frequently used together with a lorry delivery at 6.30 sunday morning, down the steps and outside our window.

Gary Kasparov was arrested on charges of Organizing an Unauthorized Protest and Resisting Arrest, after a protest by the Other Russia Coalition broke through police lines and began marching on the Election Commission. Gary Kasparov, of course, is the former Chess Grand Champion, now known for being strongly critical of the current Russian government. He was reportedly forced to the ground and beaten, says his assistant.
Let's be honest, I'm just trying to paraphrase from the news article. You can read it here.
Here is a video of Mr. Kasparov on Bill Maher earlier this year– I can't figure out how to embed it because I am having a Brain problem today, so, here it is.
As far as I can tell, Gary Kasparov is a pretty fantastic guy.

BRISTOL, Va. – The King University women's basketball team made the trip across the state line to face crosstown foe Virginia Intermont College, emerging victorious by a score of 69-60 behind a balanced scoring attack, paced by ten points each from Bonnie Durrett and Sydney Harris.
After falling behind 2-0 early in the contest, the Tornado (6-2) took a 3-2 lead on a Durrett three-point field goal and did not relinquish the advantage. She finished one rebound away from a double-double, tying her season low rebounding total with nine.
Stephanie Brantley added in nine points for the Tornado on 4-for-9 shooting, including a three-point basket to beat the shot clock buzzer in the first half to stretch King's advantage to six points and key an 11-4 run over the next five minutes of play. After the Cobras (5-6) trimmed the lead back to six points, the Tornado scored 13 of the first half's final 15 points to take a 38-21 lead at the intermission.
King continued to pressure the Cobras during the second half, eventually holding a 27-point lead with just over six minutes remaining and key reserve players seeing significant playing time. But Virginia Intermont did not go away quietly. The Cobras knocked down six three-point field goals in the game's closing minutes, many from several feet beyond the three-point arc, to cut the final margin to 69-60. Virginia Intermont closed the game on a 23-5 run after trailing 64-37 with 5:16 to play.
The Tornado shot 37.5 percent from the field while holding the Cobras to 34.5 percent and outrebounded their crosstown foes 46-40. The Tornado bench outscored the Cobra reserves 36-25, with ten King players seeing at least ten minutes of playing time.
The Cobras were paced by Kayla Orrick, who led all scorers with 15 points and grabbed six rebounds. Jordan Ray added 11 points on the night. King's Tia Keitt pitched in with eight points on 3-for-4 shooting, while Jalan Harper pulled down six rebounds.
The Tornado will return to action on Wednesday night in a road matchup with Tusculum College. King will then return home for a contest with Mars Hill University on Saturday at 1:00 p.m. in the Tornado's final contest before a break spanning Christmas and New Year's Day.

It would grate me that we'd have to compete against (essentially) every non-test playing nation in the world for two places while Zimbabwe and Bangladesh (who we tied with/beat in the last WC anyway) get there automatically.
The irony is that an extra "hopelessly one-sided affair" (against Pakistan in the group stages) would have made the whole tournament much better in your eyes. On one hand you say that Associate nations should be cut down because their games with test-playing nations aren't competitive enough, but on the other hand, if they weren't capable of competing, they'd be knocked out in the first round and there wouldn't be a problem.
Ireland's awkward position in relation to the test sides is what brings about the issue. We're no longer bad enough that test nations can count on beating us every time we play them, but we're not yet good enough to compete on a regular basis. Would cutting down the available spots for Associates at the World Cup really be an appropriate response to their ongoing improvement?

text: Sleep disruption is common among children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and represent a significant clinical challenge for treatment. Melatonin is a naturally occurring hormone associated with sleep initiation. Melatonin begins to rise prior to sleep onset. Dim light melatonin onset (DLMO) sampling has been used to document phase advances or delays in the melatonin circadian rhythm associated with sleep disorders. Children with ASD have shown evidence of lower melatonin as well as suggestions of disrupted melatonin synthesis pathways. Melatonin has also been used to treat insomnia in children with ASD without evidence for a disruption in the diurnal melatonin rhythm of the child being treated. However, simple minimally invasive approaches to assessing melatonin in children with ASD are significantly lacking and have relied largely on blood sampling or overnight urine collection. The research team has developed a unique means for saliva collection for several steroids such as cortisol and DHEA using specially adapted filter papers contained in a small collection booklet. These booklets are simple to use and have been successful in distant collaborations ranging from mothers in China to crew on international space station. The research team has successfully used this approach for measuring diurnal salivary cortisol in children with ASD. The study aims to validate this approach for assessing melatonin. In addition, feasibility in a population of children with ASD will be tested in anticipation of a clinical trial of melatonin that would examine DLMO as a predictor of response to treatment. The investigators hope to reliably collect saliva samples using their filter paper collection approach and importantly prove that filter paper collection will be relatively noninvasive from the child's perspective. This project has high relevance to several priority areas of Autism Speaks: novel detection methods (minimally invasive saliva collection), development of a screening approach (DLMO using melatonin collected in saliva samples), and laying the ground work for a larger randomized trial of melatonin to treat insomnia in children with ASD (i.e., those showing delayed onset of melatonin increases at bedtime might respond to a small dose earlier in the day). This is a highly innovative approach to a crucial need among children with ASD that will lead to a randomized melatonin trial based on evaluation of the nocturnal increase in salivary melatonin.

Artist: Nick Iluzada
"I found that the use of my sketchbook has been really integral in finding the kind of happy mediums that I would want to use for different types of work. I hope that my work is not the same in two or three years as it is now. It's a constant process of exploration that I want to keep up with. I think that's at least how I'm going to stay artistically honest with myself. I feel like, as an illustrator, you will get stronger work."

What is up with Google? We have hundreds of messages waiting moderation on the BeagleBoard Google Group, but the tool no longer enables message moderation---and absolutely no communications from Google. Have they simply bitten off more than they can chew? Are they trying to take too much control? Either way, I'm shopping for a new mailing list solution for BeagleBoard.org and, sorry, 99% of your suggestions aren't useful. We need low-setup costs, low/free hosting, long-term archival, excellent search tools and results in various engines, quality spam controls, easy-to-use moderation tools, forum-like thread organization and "top-pinning", digest and individual e-mails with threading and many more features for which Google Groups has barely been passable at this point.
Any thoughts on why this has happened and if Google will be a valid partner in the future?

UFC 154 Video: Carlos Condit's Political Attack Ad Against Georges St. Pierre
(Props: UFC)
Carlos Condit's platform of "Knockouts…Knockouts…Shorts" may sound nice, but his last fight proved that he's beholden to the same special interests that Georges St. Pierre is. For real change in the welterweight division, you should go with the third-party candidate.
Actually, the first thing this video makes me think about is all the Americans who will buy the UFC 154 pay-per-view next month but won't bother to vote in the presidential election next week. Get it together, people. If you don't vote, you don't get to bitch and moan for the next four years when your guy loses.Read More DIGG THIS

Dinner supports area cancer group
ST. MARYS — All year long, the Cancer Association of Auglaize County (CAAC) provides nourishment for cancer patients who are losing weight due to treatment, but Friday the group will feed the community at large while raising the money to support those patients for the rest of the year.
Its annual spaghetti dinner, in its 10th year, is set for 4:30 to 7 p.m. Friday at the St. Marys Eagles Club.
CAAC Director Betty "BJ" Hansbrough said the most important thing to know about the association is that all the money for the organization is raised by local donations that stay in the county to help local cancer patients, regardless of income or circumstances, survive and recover from cancer.
For more information on the Cancer Association, see the Wednesday, Oct. 30 edition of the Wapakoneta Daily News.

As an expectant mother, you want your baby to be healthy. Remember that much of what you eat, drink, and breathe is passed along to your baby. Some things are good, and others can be harmful. Your baby receives food and oxygen through the placenta (the special tissue that joins the mother and her baby). This is why you need to make healthy choices.
It is important to make an appointment with your doctor when you become pregnant. He or she will monitor your health and your baby's health during your pregnancy. If you don't have a doctor, choose one. He or she will want to see you regularly during your pregnancy. Be sure to make appointments as often as your doctor tells you. Keep all of these appointments. They are sometimes called pre-natal (pree-NAY-tul) appointments. "Pre-natal" means "before the birth."
Your dental health also is important. Schedule an appointment with your dentist for a checkup during your pregnancy.
During pregnancy, most women need to eat more healthy food to help the baby grow. After the first 3 months, most women must take in more calories than usual to reach the recommended amount of weight gain during pregnancy (usually 25 to 35 pounds). It is not a good idea to lose weight while you are pregnant. Your doctor or nurse will talk to you about how much weight you should gain. A healthy diet and careful weight gain can prevent high blood pressure and other problems during pregnancy.
Ask your doctor or nurse about using sugar substitutes like aspartame (NutraSweet) or saccharine, caffeine, and other foods with many additives. You may be told to avoid these foods or cut down on how much of them you have.
Try to drink 6 to 8 glasses of water each day. Limit the amount of soda you drink to 1 or 2 glasses each day. Caffeine-free drinks are best. For more information about nutrition, see the UPMC Nutrition During Pregnancy patient education page.
