Move gradually and become individual together. Talk honestly together to share thoughts associated with your current sperm count issues. Available interaction is essential to take care of intimacy. Please remember that relationships are usually flexible: Perhaps young couples not dealing with sperm count issues proceed through times when their passion subsides.

I have never been a patient person, one who carefully sits down and reads directions, but rather one who learns visually and carelessly plows thru things hoping for the best. Book learning has always been a challenge for this ADD brain, so when I started this pattern and noticed on Ravelry that a few people said to read the tips carefully, I tucked that tidbit away in my brain and promptly ignored it.
I will back up a little bit. I have been following Julie's blog, Little Cotton Rabbits for many years. Julie knits the sweetest little bunnies and if you are lucky enough to win a random drawing to purchase one, you are rewarded with a very sweet little bunny, and what Woolen Rabbit wouldn't want a sweet little bunny, right? I was fortunate enough to purchase Blanchine, the brown and white bunny above and I just love her!
A number of months ago, Julie released the pattern for 2 rabbits and some dresses and I was so excited that I bought all of the patterns right away. It's taken me months to get to it as I have been happily knitting away on some stockinette sweaters, but I needed a change of pace in my knitting with a little challenge for a spell so I picked up this pattern, all 14 pages, and started on a little companion bunny for Blanchine.
Well .....back to the directions part. If you look at my bunny, you can see that her bottom half seems to be bigger than Julie's and that would be because I used the wrong needle size. Sewing the joints onto the body....so much trickier than it would seem to be. Stuffing the body to just the right firmness, again, not as easy as you would think and of course in re-reading the directions I found little tips that I should have followed to make it easier...aggh.
Well, while I might not be good about reading directions carefully, I am a very determined person when it comes to doing something right, so I will finish this little blue bunny and then I will start another one reading the directions carefully and hopefully it will be half as nice as Julie's.
(The bunnies are in a baby bunny bucket)
There is a ton of work involved in making these little bunnies. I am amazed that Julie has made so many of them and each one lovlier than the next, God bless her!
With that I am off. Have a wonderful weekend in your corner of the world!

The fine art of planting
The fine art of planting
Beth and Robert Cummings Neville have turned a bad site into a good garden. Their Milton home is on a slanting rocky lot 20 feet above a busy street corner. "This place was just shale dust and crab grass when we moved in," says Beth with a laugh.
Instead they've embraced problems as opportunities. Little by little, since 1988, they have built small terraces to control erosion while colonizing each rocky outcropping with improved soil and suitable plantings.
Their efforts have developed almost two dozen mini gardens, each with a name and theme. Pictured, the Cupid Fountain Garden spruces up a garage with June roses and alliums.

"Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac" reviewed by Lizzy on June 3, 2012
Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac
Write a review of the book, including plot points, if you wish:
This book was about a seventeen-year-old girl who falls down the steps in front of her school and hits her head. When she wakes up in the hospital, she realizes she has forgotten everything from the last four years, including her parents divorce, her best friend Will, her boyfriend Ace, and just about all of the schoolwork from the last four years! She falls in love with a "bad boy", James, and her life is totally messed up. It's a great book!
Similar authors or titles?:
This book is similar to one of Gabrielle Zevin's previous books, 'Elsewhere.' In this book, a teen is hit by a car and sent to the strange afterlife which is much like Earth. She is faced with the prospect of aging backward until she is a baby and has forgotten everything about her previous life.
Would you recommend this book?:
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!! You should also read 'Elsewhere.' Its a great book!

Norway has produced many great polar explorers and scientists. Some, like Roald Amundsen the first man to reach the South Pole are well known but there are others who have been almost forgotten - men like Carsten Borchgrevink who, almost 10 years earlier in 1899, paved the way for his more famous countryman by being the leader of the first expedition party to winter over in Antarctica at a site known as Cape Adare.
Sadly all traces of Amundsen's base "Framheim" were lost to the elements long ago. This means that in 2011 nothing will remain to mark the centenary of his remarkable journey. Fortunately Borchgrevink's base at Cape Adare still survives and is now Norway's most valuable historic site in Antarctica - but this too is at risk.
Cape Adare is a desolate place but it is the site of a string of Norwegian "firsts". It is not only the site of the first confirmed landing on the Antarctic mainland, but the first buildings to be constructed there, the first wintering over on the continent and the first grave.
The first buildings, Borchgrevink's living and store huts were prefabricated of pine by Strømmen Trævarefabrikk. They are essential pieces of Norway's proud Antarctic history that must be saved for future generations. This site is already recognised internationally as a significant historic site and as the result of initiatives by the Antarctic Heritage Trust it is now registered in the Antarctic Treaty System as an Antarctic Specially Protected Area - the highest level of protection available under the terms of the Treaty. If you would like to take a virtual tour of Borchgrevink's base (and the other bases under the Antarctic Heritage Trust's care) as it stands today click here.
A major professional conservation programme led by the New Zealand based charitable organisation Antarctic Heritage Trust has now begun. This project aims to save this forgotten site. The Norwegian Government has made a major contribution to the conservation project. However, the survival of this icon of Norway's polar heritage still depends on Norwegian support.

HMV chain calls in administrators
Entertainment store HMV has become the latest high street casualty as it announced it had been forced to call in administrators.
Following discussions among the music retailer's directors, the company released a statement announcing it was ceasing trading in ordinary shares immediately - and had appointed accountancy giant Deloitte.
HMV, which employs more than 4,000 people, said in a statement: "The board regrets to announce that it has been unable to reach a position where it feels able to continue to trade outside of insolvency protection, and in the circumstances therefore intends to file notice to appoint administrators to the company and certain of its subsidiaries with immediate effect. The directors of the company understand that it is the intention of the administrators, once appointed, to continue to trade whilst they seek a purchaser for the business."
In the run-up to Christmas HMV's boss Trevor Moore warned the entertainment group was in trouble as he revealed the chain was in talks with banks over its future following worse-than-expected trading over the festive period. The chief executive said market conditions suggested the group, which has 238 stores in the UK and Ireland, would fail to meet expectations for the year to April, so would not meet the terms of its bank loans.
HMV said like-for-like sales fell 10.2% in the 26 weeks to October 27, last year, as its pre-tax loss narrowed to £36.1 million, compared to £50.1 million the previous year. Shares tumbled 39% after the dismal results were published, giving the retailer a market value of just £10.1 million.
Mr Moore joined the group from camera chain Jessops, which itself went into administration last week at the cost of 1,370 jobs across its 187 stores.
Suppliers including Universal Music came to HMV's rescue in January 2011 with a deal which helped the retailer shed some of its huge debt pile.
Its struggle has seen it sell off several parts of its business, including the Waterstones book retailer, to reduce its debt pile, while closing loss-making stores.
HMV also offloaded its Hammersmith Apollo venue for £32 million, which enabled it to thrash out a new deal with lenders.

Back in May, last year, when former boss Simon Fox was still in charge, the group said it was looking for pre-tax profits of at least £10 million for the 2012/13 financial year.

This week in Island history
The news of 10 and 15 years ago is from the Jamestown Press. The news of 100 years ago came from the collection of the Newport Historical Society.
100 years ago From the Newport Daily News, January 26, 1909
(At the town council meeting) J. R. Caswell was appointed a committee to have the various automobile signs on the streets removed.
Last evening Rev. A B. Christy of Providence had a stereopticon lecture on "The Boy and His Foes." The town hall in which the lecture was given was filled to the utmost capacity by an appreciative audience. The lecturer spoke of the advantages of being an American boy and of Abraham Lincoln as one of the greatest temperance orators in the West before he took up other great national questions.
75 years ago From the Newport Daily News, January 26, 1934
(At the town council meeting) Albert A. Boone reported progress made on the northern boundary wall at the Four Corners cemetery and also the sidewalk and curbing under construction on the east side of Southwest avenue.
The Jamestown child health maintenance committee presented a petition, which was received and placed on file, that the town council be requested to employ the services of a public nurse, who shall co-operate with the local physicians, the public school committee and all local health authorities for a period of three months or until conditions warrant a change.
From the Newport Daily News, January 31, 1934
One of Jamestown's old landmarks, in later years known as the Episcopal Guild Hall, which has stood for more than 60 years on the Old North road, a distance of more than three and a half miles from the ferry, and commanding a view of both the east and west bays and the surrounding country, has recently been sold to Mr. and Mrs. Bucher Tweed who own an extensive nursery covering an area from the East Shore road to the hall. The old hall has now been converted into an attractive six-room cottage, with modern improvements.
50 years ago From the Newport Daily News, January 29, 1959
Elimination of several post-midnight crossings and more stringent pass privileges on the Newport-Jamestown ferry effective Feb. 16 were announced today. … The purpose was to put the ferry on a sounder fund basis.
The Jamestown school budget, according to the request received by the Jamestown Town Council last night and referred to its budget committee, totals $180,099. The town is asked to supply $133,099 of this amount, the balance to come from estimated receipts of $17,000. The budget represents an increase of only $8,661.
25 years ago From the Newport Daily News, January 26, 1984

The state Department of Transportation got a goahead from the Town Council Monday to proceed to the next design stage of its proposed upgrade to North Main Road.

10 years ago From the Jamestown Press, January 28, 1999
Despite the announcement that the town will enter into a state site remediation program to properly close the North Road landfill, residents remain wary about the future of the site. The Town Council decided to hold a workshop at a future unspecified date to discuss these issues further.
The first graduating class of the Jamestown Citizens Police Academy received completion certificates at Monday's Town Council meeting. … Using money from the police department's donation fund and volunteer efforts by several members of the force, the 10- week program was designed to teach citizens of Jamestown about the workings of their police department as well as understanding of what it takes to do become a police officer. (There were 22 graduates.)

Well guys this is the last chibi Avatar character that I will be drawing and uploading, unless somebody asks me to do another figure from the series. Today you will be taught "how to draw chibi Azula", step by step. She came out pretty darn cool if you ask me and even though she is drawn in a cute, adorable chibi form, I still maintained to keep her personality as nasty as she looks. Azula is one of my favorite characters and I think its because she has a mean streak as well as a soft spot. Almost like Zuko had when he was still bad but you knew deep down he was confused about who he was and what type of person he wanted to be. Azula on the other hand is more like her father Ozai. She craves to be powerful and the ruler of the Firenation. Nothing she does is for the good of the people, its only for the good of herself and how much power she can obtain. I had a lot of fun drawing her in a chibi form and for those of you that wanted a lesson on all of the Airbender characters in chibi versions, here you have it, the last of the group. Now it's your turn to "draw chibi Azula"! I hope you enjoy this tutorial, I still have more lessons coming your way. Peace out and have an awesome drawing day!

Pfizer discontinues support of CME
Pfizer will no longer fund continuing medical education through med ed firms.
The company, that was until recently the leading supporter of CME, said it will continue to support CME programs provided by academic medical centers and teaching hospitals, associations, medical societies and community hospitals, but will no longer offer direct funding for programs provided by MECCs.
The move is aimed at tempering concerns that industry support biases CME content.
"We understand that even the appearance of conflicts in CME is damaging and we are determined to take actions that are in the best interests of patients and physicians," said Pfizer chief medical officer Dr. Joseph Feczko in a statement.
Pfizer's support of CME has dropped considerably in recent years. In 2005, the company spent $314 million on all forms of CME, according to Verispan figures. In 2006, CME support dropped to $285 million, again according to Verispan.
Last year, the Pfizer reported spending around $80 million on CME. In May, as part of a transparency push, Pfizer posted a list of $10 million in med ed grants for the first quarter of 2008.
The company acknowledged that some supported med ed programs will be contracted out to MECCs by academic and institutional providers.
Tom Sullivan, president of med ed firm Rockpointe, questioned whether funding academic and institutional providers, which will contract commercial providers to execute many programs, increases transparency: "How does having multiple provider situations make it really transparent?"
In a statement, the Coalition for Healthcare Communication said: "Senior CME professionals throughout the industry agree that commercial education companies are among the finest in the industry. However, many uninformed public policy makers and other critics of the industry have unfairly singled out commercial providers, leading Pfizer to the unfortunate decision."

Children's Art Drawing Classes Children spend 45 to 60 minutes focused on one project! Creative Minds Arts method has them sequentially place shapes, lines and a variety of details to create their drawings. The use of these analytical skills, perceptual skills and creativity is whole-brained learning at its best. Educational goals: The Creative Minds Arts method is comprised of several essential elements. The development of the unique Creative Minds Arts curriculum and the critical components of Creative Minds classroom will lead you to a more thorough understanding of how and why teaching the Creative Minds Arts method brings great results to children of all ages. Problem Solving, Visualization and Order Sequencing As we learn to draw the fundamentals of art, we look at our subject and learn to see its basic shapes. When we draw, we work from larger shapes to smaller details. The child recognizes and names the basic shapes in different household objects Coloring and Attention to Detail We teach children a professional coloring technique. Your child may have used markers before, but not in this manner, and not with these results. These careful coloring skills will benefit many areas of their fine motor development. Self Esteem and Positive Reinforcement The child is nurtured and encouraged in a non-competitive environment. We honor them for the process, as well as the final product. Methods use: Step-by-step curriculum sequential order process, we place shapes, lines and a variety of details to create the basic fundamental drawing. In the process, we tap into the power to draw out the best in every child, replacing self-doubt with self-esteem, indifference with focus, inhibition with imagination. We teach is a language that children can understand classes deepen children's appreciation for art, and expose them to various images, vocabularies and cultures, that expand their imagination. Indicator of progress: Throughout the process we validate the positive effect that art has on young learners ranging from increased math and reading scores, to improvements in general cognitive abilities and social development. Assessment methods: Our program is process based not product based. You will understand the processes behind the Creative Minds Arts method, as well as the academic and social benefits, and the impact on children's abilities in art, the larger mission of bringing this kind of art experience to young children across the nations comes sharply into focus. The evaluation results as you can see are the benefits of developing fine motor skills through guided observation, information and drawing are obvious. The twenty minutes of instruction have has a dramatic impact. Participating in the Creative Minds Arts drawing process is an important way for children to express stories builds their visual awareness, as well as their verbal and visual vocabulary and finally their own creativity with color techniques.

M. D. Anderson Nurse Addresses Lymphedema in Breast Cancer Patients and Survivors
Nurse-Administered Prevention and Management Strategies Can Decrease Incidence of Lymphedema and Improve Quality of Life in Patients
A poster session presented today by The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center at the Oncology Nurses Society 33rd Annual Congress, found that early nursing intervention and implementation of effective strategies can lead to a decrease in the incidence of lymphedema, better management of chronic lymphedema and improved quality of life in breast cancer patients.
The literature review, led by Mattie J. Sennett McDowell, RN, BSN, a research nurse in the Department of Breast Medical Oncology at M. D. Anderson, examined 20 years of data about the prevention, management and care of upper extremity lymphedema (ULE), or lymphedema that occurs in the arms, in breast cancer patients. The goal of the review was to identify a comprehensive list of current evidenced-based strategies that nurses and hospitals can use in caring for their patients.
Women are living longer as breast cancer treatments get better, but at the same time, they face more devastating side effects like lymphedema, McDowell said. So many women present with the symptoms, yet it is understudied and not well understood. More can to be done to proactively recognize and address lymphedema in breast cancer patients.
ULE is an often a distressing and debilitating side effect of breast cancer treatment in which protein-rich fluid in the tissue of the arms accumulates and obstructs the lymph vessels. According to the National Lymphedema Network, approximately 15 to 20 percent of all breast cancer patients are affected by ULE. Its development can be triggered by breast cancer diagnostic procedures, radiation, surgery or environmental factors. It also can can occur immediately after treatment or many years down the road. ULE, which can make simple tasks such as picking up children, getting dressed or exercising painful, has a detrimental impact on the patients quality of life.
According to the literature, effective strategies to address lymphedema included early identification of at-risk patients through enhanced assessment techniques, monitoring, standardizing at-risk assessment tools and increased awareness of lymphedema through educational efforts of the health care team. The studies noted that increased awareness through educational forums, patient-nurse learning modules, and increasing the number of research studies focusing on ULE are vital in addressing this problem.
McDowell, who is dedicated to the study, prevention and management of ULE after a breast cancer patient died from significant disease progression, complicated by advanced, unmanageable lymphedema, said, This research is centered on what is important to the patient and their quality of life after treatment. Nurses are on the frontline and may hold the key in proactively preventing lymphedema in many patients by educating them about triggers and symptoms, continual and specific lymphedema assessments during each visit and pursuing research in this area.
At M. D. Anderson, nurses and patient care teams have implemented several strategies to educate breast cancer patients about lymphedema and treat it aggressively. One such strategy is having a nurse and physician present information via discussion and prepared handouts before women undergo surgery. Additionally, all women are assessed for lymphedema during treatment and at follow-up visits. M. D. Andersons multidisciplinary care team also offers comprehensive support and collaboration from prevention of the sequelae to advanced physical therapy for those with lymphedema.
McDowell plans to develop further research studies examining the evidenced-based practices for ULE identified in this study, with the end-goal of developing a standard set of recommendations. More information on the causes and symptoms of lymphedema, risk reduction strategies and recommended treatment are provided online at M. D. Andersons Rehabilitation Services Lymphedema homepage or by logging onto the National Lymphedema Network Web site.

A variable diopter ring on the right eyepiece allows you to match the binocular optics precisely to your individual eyesight for a sharp image.Standard accessories. A neckstrap, eyepiece and lens covers, and a soft nylon carrying case with shoulder strap are standard equipment.
A note on our eye relief figures: Quite
often, our eye relief figures will differ from those of the
manufacturer. This is because we measure the "usable" eye relief, while
the manufacturers specify their usually-longer (but technically correct)
"designed" eye relief.
The eye lens of the eyepiece is normally
recessed below the rubber eyeguard or rubber rim of the eyepiece to keep
the lens from being scratched during use. An eyepiece might have a
"designed" eye relief of 15mm (and the eye relief will truly measure
15mm from the eye lens to where the image forms). However, if the eye
lens is recessed 3mm below the eye guard, the Ramsden Disk forms only
12mm above the eyepiece body (the 15mm "designed" eye relief, less the
3mm of eye relief made unusable by having the eye lens recessed into the
body of the eyepiece). This "usable" eye relief of 12mm (measured from
the rolled-down eyeguard – the closest point you can get your eye to the
eye lens – to where the image forms) is the eye relief figure we would
measure and list in this website.
Why is it important to list the "usable" eye relief? For
those people who don't wear eyeglasses while observing, a few mm
difference between the eye relief they expect from the manufacturer's
literature and the shorter eye relief they actually get in real life
doesn't mean a lot. They can simply move a little closer to the eyepiece
to see the full field, and never realize that the eye relief is a
little shorter than they expected. However, some people must wear
eyeglasses while observing, because of severe astigmatism. These
observers can't move closer to the eyepiece if the eye relief is shorter
than expected because their glasses get in the way. For these people,
the real life "usable" eye relief is more important than the technically
correct but sometimes not fully usable "designed" eye relief. We
measure and list the actual usable eye relief so that people in the real
world can pick the eyepieces that will work best for them.

Second-biggest airline at SRQ departs, leaving behind uncertainty.
Bob Walters' son booked the reservation two months ago for his dad to fly on AirTran Airways from Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport to Atlanta.
"He said, 'Dad, you're not going to believe this. Not only are you on the last flight, you got the last seat,'" Walters said Saturday afternoon, waiting to board AirTran Flight 1062.
Multi-colored confetti littered the floor at Gate B12 as passengers lined up for AirTran's final departure from Sarasota-Bradenton. Two airport fire trucks provided a ceremonial arc from their water cannons as the 117-seat Boeing 717 taxied from the gate, lifting off on time at 5:45 p.m.
After nearly eight years, AirTran has pulled out of Sarasota-Bradenton for good. The airport's second-largest airline carried 3 million passengers and helped revive a struggling facility with discount fares and new routes. Though other carriers have filled in most of the gap, according to Sarasota-Bradenton International executives, the impact of discount carrier's loss on fares is still playing out.
Some passengers didn't realize it was the airline's last flight here, while other frequent AirTran customers lamented the departure of a favorite airline.
"I'm very disappointed," said Mike Mazur, who has commuted between Atlanta and Sarasota since buying a condominium here in January. "I've been flying here on AirTran at least once a month."
Mazur, who owns a company that provides services for association executives, said AirTran's convenient flights to Atlanta played a role in his decision to buy a second home here.
He has already booked other flights on Delta, the only other carrier that flies to Atlanta from Sarasota-Bradenton.
"So far the fares for Delta pretty much match," he said, though he wonders if they will soon rise. "That's the only game in town now."
Walters said he has flown AirTran three or four times a year to visit his son in Atlanta.
"It's a great line. I've got nothing but good things to say about them," said the retired sales executive.
AirTran employees were packing up computer equipment at the ticket counter while passengers checked in for the last two flights to Baltimore and Atlanta.
Seven of the 10 remaining AirTran employees are transferring to other Florida airports where AirTran and owner Southwest Airlines still fly, said spokesman Brad Hawkins. Three took severance offers.
One ticket agent who did not want to identify herself said she moved here a year ago from Chicago for the job, but is out of work since she did not want to commute to Tampa.
Other airport workers also are affected by AirTran's pull out.
Melvin Wilson, a skycap with Servisair since May, worked his last day Saturday, laid off by a combination of AirTran's lost business and the regular summer slowdown.
"It's a double whammy," Wilson said. "Hopefully we will get called back, but they didn't guarantee anything."
Airport chief executive Fredrick "Rick" Piccolo, still disappointed over losing his second-largest airline, said AirTran signs at the ticket counter and throughout the terminal will be removed over the next two weeks.
"We're not trying to wipe out any signs of them on Saturday," he said.
The electronic board at AirTran's gate displayed a message: "Goodbye SRQ, Thank You for 8 Wonderful Years!"
Arlene Briamonte, flying with her mother-in-law back to Philadelphia through Atlanta, did not know she was on the final flight.
"I had no idea. It's a surprise," Briamonte said.
David and Ginny Littmann flew in from Milwaukee on AirTran's last arrival, the same jet that was turned around for the Atlanta flight. Their pilot announced it was the the airline's last trip to Sarasota-Bradenton as he taxied for departure.
The Sheboygan Falls, Wis., residents have flown AirTran a number of times to visit their daughter and family here.
"They were always the best deal," Ginny Littmann said.
Traveling companions Jessica Hussord and Alan Martin also didn't realize they were on AirTran's final flight.
"They didn't tell us anything," when the pair checked in, Jessica said, although they noticed they were not charged for their luggage.
Walters, whose son bought him the ticket, also got a surprise: "He called me last night and said since my seat was the last one going to Atlanta, he put me in first class."

Problem is When I change from CitizenKane to CitzenKan_EVO it messes up my invites... because the invite is based of your screen name i.e. http://www.urban-rivals.com/?sponsor=citzenkane.
It's probably easier to change the sponsor link to use the player ID, but I would also like to not have to change my name and keep a it as CitizenKane.
I think there should be an option to include a short (like... six characters, maybe) message that would be appended to your name. This would let people easily show other players what mode they're playing in, like EVO. It could also let guilds be abbreviated in the box so that players don't have to change their screen names into something ridiculous. I think it would make the entire listing a lot more tidy.
Clint City, day.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) Panthers have announced that Pro Bowl center Ryan Kalil is out for the season after suffering a left foot injury.
Kalil was injured in Carolina's 16-12 loss to Seattle, although he continued playing.
Kalil went to see Dr. James Anderson on Tuesday and it was determined he had a Lisfranc injury, having torn a ligament that supports the middle of his foot.
He will have season-ending surgery on Monday and be placed on injured reserve.
A first-round draft pick by the Panthers in 2007, Kalil has been to the last three Pro Bowls and is a key cog in Carolina's offense. Coach Ron Rivera says Geoff Hangartner will move from right guard to center and either Garry Williams or Jeff Byers will play right guard.

On April 27, Lloyd Blankfein, chairman and chief executive of Goldman Sachs, sat down for a meeting at Goldman headquarters with Gretchen Morgenson, reporter, columnist and senior editor of the New York Times. The Wall Street titan and the Pulitzer Prize winner had never met, but this wasn't the usual polite getting-to-know-you session between reporter and source.
"I feel like I've been waterboarded," Blankfein told her, according to people familiar with the discussion. Blankfein was being dramatic, but he had reason to feel that way. It was Morgenson, after all, who had written the story this past fall that stripped the veil of secrecy from the most momentous closed-door deal in the annals of US finance: the government rescue of fallen insurance colossus American International Group. The September 28 story, "Behind Insurer's Crisis, a Blind Eye to a Web of Risk," was the first article published by a major news organization to reveal that the true beneficiaries of the bailout were the institutions to which AIG owed money, known as counterparties (mainly Wall Street investment banks). The 2,700-word piece said, among other things, that an AIG collapse "threatened to leave a hole of as much as $20 billion in Goldman's side" and that Blankfein attended a meeting at the Federal Reserve on September 15, the same day decisions were made to let Lehman Brothers fall and to save AIG.
Today this is common knowledge; until this story ran, though, it wasn't. The article was about as bold and valuable as business stories come and involved no small journalistic risks for the Times. Goldman, for instance, was able to wring a correction on the story and still feels wronged today. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, who was then president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, called Morgenson and her editor to question the article's premise, The Nation has learned. The piece has been the subject of endless parsing on financial blogs and, privately, sniping by Morgenson's peers. Was Goldman really exposed to AIG? And if so, how? Was it fair to mention Blankfein's presence at the Fed?
It would be too much to say that the story was all in a day's work for Morgenson. It was extraordinary. But it does open a window onto what makes Morgenson the most important financial journalist of her generation.
At 53, Morgenson is at the height of her career, read and feared in the corridors of power running from Wall Street to Washington. As a reporter and columnist (a controversial dual role), she is enormously productive. During the period following Lehman's bankruptcy, her byline appeared on major stories on Henry Cisneros and good housing goals gone bad, Merrill Lynch's collapse, corrupted rating agencies and Washington Mutual's boiler-room culture, in addition to the September 28 blockbuster on AIG–not to mention weekly 1,200-word columns on everything from rating-agency hypocrisy ("They're Shocked, Shocked, About the Mess," October 26) to a convoluted tax deal that imperiled an Indiana electrical cooperative ("Just Call This Deal Hoosier Baroque," December 21).

Building Towers
Lesson 10 of 10
Objective: SWBAT make sense of a(n irresistible engineering) problem and persevere in solving it.
Big Idea: It's the day before winter break, and kids are ready for a holiday. This activity ensures that they're engaged, excited, and happy to be working hard, even with a break just hours away!
It's the last day before winter break! During my second year of teaching, I realized that things had to be done a little differently on this particular day. Everyone - both students and teachers - are rightly excited to have made it through December and to have a much-needed break coming up. Rather than pretending that it's just another day of instruction or giving an exam, I like turn this into a festive, social, high-spirited event. This is how I've spent every last-day-before-winter-break for the last nine years.
As students arrive, I say that there's going to be a team challenge today, and everyone should be in groups of four or five. While groups form, I say that everyone is going to get the same limited supplies: newspaper and a small roll of tape. Some years, I've used one copy of the New York Post, other years, I've found other sorts of smaller papers around the building. This year, I rescued old copies of a short local paper from the recycling bin, and each group got five copies of that 32-page newspaper.
"No one gets more than they get," I say. "so make sure you conserve your newspaper and use it wisely. The same goes for the tape - this roll is all you're going to get. Once you run out, it's gone!" I use dollar store rolls of invisible tape - enough to get by, but not enough that it can be unrolled mindlessly.
Then I tell everyone the challenge: by only using these supplies, build the tallest tower possible!
When each group is formed, I give them the supplies, and they're on their way.

Work Time: Tower Building
Things always start slowly. A few kids will wonder why the heck we're doing this. It's important just to smile and urge them on. "How tall can you get your tower to go?" I ask.
Every five minutes, I tell the class how much time they have left. With 30 minutes to go, as everyone is starting to get excited about the task, I take a round of clarifying questions and I provide a few more details about the assignment:
- The tower must stand on its own. It cannot be taped to the desk, to the ceiling, or to anything else. "In other words, the tape can only be used to attach newspaper to newspaper," I say.
- "At the end of class, I'm going to try to knock your tower down," I say, to a mixture of groans and anticipatory giggles. "I'm going to see if your tower can withstand an earthquake," I say, as I shake a desk, "and I'm going to huff and puff like the Big Bad Wolf and try to blow your tower down." Towers have to stay standing through both kinds of natural disaster.
- When time runs out, there should be no trace of any trash at your group's table. There should be a tower, and nothing else, so make sure that you're keeping things clean and neat as you go.
With five minutes left, I remind everyone to make sure that they're leaving no trace around their table and their tower. Other than that, there's not much to say. I walk around and check in with kids about their holiday plans, and I express my delight at how their towers are coming along. I might let someone put on some music or hand out snacks, if I've got them. Home-baked oatmeal-raisin-chocolate-chip cookies are my go-to.
As the day progresses, later classes have the advantage of looking at the work of earlier classes. It's cool to see when each breakthrough happens: a group might have the insight that tightly rolled newspapers are very strong, and then that will a feature of a lot of towers for the rest of the day. Some years - and 2013 was one - a group comes up with a tetrahedron-based design. Once these ideas arise from a class, they're then refined by successive classes with little input from me. It's brilliant stuff.
Check out the photos I've posted here. They tell a better story than my words, and it's so much more fun to let you look than to write about it. These photos are arranged in chronological order, spanning the day.

I count down the final five minutes to the end of the competition, which ends with five minutes left in class. When time runs out, I tell everyone to take their hands off their towers and to sweep for trash one last time. Then I tell everyone to circle up.
When we're all circled up, I give the class a hand and let everyone enjoy the sight of our newly-built city for a few moments. Then, I go from tower to tower and subject them to the pair of natural disasters. In most classes, about half of the towers will fall down, but it's rare for a group to be surprised by that, and it's not to hard to keep spirits high. Watching a few towers fall is part of the fun. Even more fun is seeing that a well-built tower can withstand quite a strong "earthquake".
If a tower is still standing, we measure it. This year, the winners during period 1 built a 70-inch tower. As the day progressed, periods 2 and 4 surpassed 90 inches, which required some temporary adjustment of our ceiling tiles. The last period class really ran with the tetrahedron design that arose during period 4, and one group built a tower that went from the floor to the ceiling, over ten feet tall.
After measurements are taken, I ask the class to give the winners a round of applause, and we have just a little time to reflect on what went well before we all say happy new year and be safe!

This is the first stage of B'nai B'rith International's Mt. Carmel fire recovery program to be completed. The cost of the phones—each of which carried a dedication from both B'nai B'rith International and B'nai B'rith Europe (the primary funders of the program)—including a two-year operation package, was $25,000.
"When B'nai B'rith learned that the fire destroyed communication towers, severely impacting communication efforts, we wanted to provide this technology for the response teams," B'nai B'rith International Interim President Allan J. Jacobs said. "Our ability to respond to the unmet needs in disaster and emergency assistance is due to our donors and members who ardently support these campaigns."
The regional search and rescue teams are all members of F.I.R.S.T.—Fast Israel Rescue and Search Teams, which has been a major partner in B'nai B'rith's international disaster relief missions undertaken around the world through IsraAID—The Israel Forum for International Humanitarian Aid.
"Both F.I.R.S.T. and IsraAID provide vital ground-level aid to communities facing disasters and destruction. With the addition of the satellite phones, we hope to strengthen their already highly effective support and relief efforts as they respond to those in desperate need of humanitarian aid in Israel and around the world," B'nai B'rith International Executive Vice President Daniel S. Mariaschin said.
F.I.R.S.T. Chairman Avi Bahar, a former senior Israel Defense Forces officer, expressed deep gratitude to B'nai B'rith and its contributors for making the satellite phones available. He noted that the teams had long wanted use of this essential communications tool, but the purchase price and operating costs were too expensive for his all-volunteer force.
"This equipment will undoubtedly save lives here in Israel and will also serve us on disaster relief missions abroad," Bahar added.

Telling everyone's 9/11 stories
As I listened to NPR's report on the StoryCorps project to collect oral histories about every 9/11 victim, I was struck by the beauty and simplictiy of the stories that were told. But I also wondered: Are we telling everyone's stories?
StoryCorps' partnership with the National September 11 Memorial and Museum is focusing on the U.S. victims of the tragedy, those who died in the Twin Towers, the Pentagon, and in Pennsylvania. But what about the victims of 9/11's aftereffects, innocent people in Iraq and Afghanistan, all with stories of their own, tens of thousands of victims whose names we will never know? It would be impossible to collect all their stories, but they also deserve to be told. Through friends at the Iraqi Student Project, I've met many Iraqi young people with their own tales of grief, death, and displacement whose lives will never be the same.
That shouldn't take anything away from our grief for the American victims of 9/11, but coming to see the larger picture of the world's grief might help us grow in the kind of solidarity that would prevent the disastrous mistakes we as a nation have made since 9/11, mistakes that have diminished morally and in the eyes of the world.

LEEP is an effective treatment for abnormal cell growth, called dysplasia (dis-PLAY-zha). Dysplasia is not cancer. But it could lead to cervical cancer if you don't get treatment. LEEP removes the abnormal tissue from your cervix. Some types of treatment destroy the abnormal tissue. LEEP preserves the tissue, so it can be checked to make sure no cancer is present.
During the procedure, your doctor will:
Problems after the procedure (complications) are rare, but may include:
After the procedure, the tissue will be sent to the lab to be studied. Your doctor will let you know the results at your follow-up visit. As your cervix heals, you may notice one or more of the following:
You can return to most of your normal activities soon after LEEP. To help your cervix heal, avoid the following for 4 weeks after the procedure:
Talk with your doctor to see if there are any other activities you should avoid during recovery.
Be sure to call your doctor if you have any of the following:
For the first year after the LEEP procedure, you will need to have Pap tests, colposcopy exams, or both, more often. Your doctor will talk with you about your follow-up instructions.

Nurses dismiss CMA's plan for two-tier health care
TORONTO, July 31, 2007 – Ontario nurses reject the Canadian Medical Association's(CMA) proposal, made yesterday in Charlottetown, for a two-tier health-care system.
The Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario (RNAO) says allowing doctors to set up a private practice and continue to see patients in the publicly funded system is a recipe for disaster and will leave most Canadians without the care they require. "It won't work and the evidence is clear about that," says RNAO president Mary Ferguson-Paré.
RNAO says there are dozens of studies that show countries with parallel, private hospital systems have larger and longer public wait lists than those with a single-payer system. Parallel systems also cherry pick patients who are healthier, younger or have conditions that are cheaper to treat, while leaving more complicated cases to a public system with fewer health-care professionals.
"The CMA is showing its true colours. Doctors elected Brian Day, the owner of the largest private hospital in Canada, as president of the association, and now the CMA wants to steer our publicly funded system away from the Canadians they are supposed to care for. It's obvious the Emperor has no clothes," says RNAO Executive Director Doris Grinspun.
"The CMA's proposal undermines a central principle of our health-care system - namely that it exists for everyone," adds Ferguson-Paré. "Ontario nurses will redouble our efforts to stand up and ensure that it does because we know the public is with us."
"We are proud to work within a system that believes access to health care is a universal human right. Many innovative changes that are reducing wait times for surgeries and improving access to health-care services are already in progress," says Grinspun, pointing to an example in Alberta, where public clinics have reduced hip and knee replacement wait times from the average of 47 weeks to 4.7 weeks. "These kinds of innovations are geared to all Canadians, not simply those who can afford it," she says, adding that there is nothing in the Canada Health Act that prohibits innovation.
The Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario (RNAO) is the professional association representing registered nurses wherever they practise in Ontario. Since 1925, RNAO has lobbied for healthy public policy, promoted excellence in nursing practice, increased nurses' contribution to shaping the health-care system, and influenced decisions that affect nurses and the public they serve.
