In this month's full memo, we have bimbos from a spokesman for the Financial Services Roundtable, Rep. Barney Frank, Mark McGwire, "monster" mom and a spokesperson for the RNC. We have several "Wrong Thing To Say" examples from Rev. Pat Robertson, the University of Tennessee basketball coach, former Governor Rod Blagojevich (yawn) and Harry Reid (we'll stick up for him – it's not what you think). We recognize N.Y. Governor David Patterson, a newsletter from an architecture firm, a UK disc jockey, a Republican candidate for county judge and retailer H&M. The (bad) e-mail example of the month comes from Goldman Sachs.
"Don't panic," said Democratic Sen. Tom Harkin following Scott Brown's win over Martha Coakley in Massachusetts. (Despite being described by David Gergen as "the Kennedy seat," Brown ran promising to be the vote that stopped health care "reform," while Coakley promised to vote for it. Maybe they shouldn't "panic," but they should listen!)
USA Today, "What now for the Democrats?" January 21, 2010
Richard Heene, known as the "balloon boy's" father, told Larry King "It wasn't a hoax," after pleading guilty to a felony that will send him to jail for 90 days. (The word, hoax, defined this controversy. The county district attorney told reporters, "It doesn't matter whether he says it's a hoax or not." And Sheriff Jim Alderden weighed in, "There's no doubt in my mind that this was a hoax." The story was picked up with the headline, "It was not a hoax," on the Associated Press, MSNBC and numerous other media outlets. Keene claimed he pleaded guilty because law enforcement officials were threatening to deport his Japanese wife, a charge they denied. If true, he should have raised the issue with a judge before pleading guilty. He comes off again as sorry they were exposed rather than sorry for the "hoax.")
CNN, Larry King Live, January 7, 2010
"This isn't about a money grab," said Scott Talbott of the Financial Services Roundtable, an industry group defending the new round of fees charged by banks. (This is an example of competing with yourself. Talbott made the case that in order to comply with extensive new regulations, banks would be corresponding more with customers. We're only marginally sympathetic. Banks were only too happy to hit customers with fees and charges and point to the minute font disclosures on the back of bills. But Talbott does have a point, and we're generally opposed to regulation. Classic bimbo.)
The Los Angeles Times, "Happy New Year. Now Pay Up," January 6, 2010
"I'm not addicted. If I were addicted, I would have had ten plastic surgeries," said the 23-year-old reality show star Heidi Montag on the revelation that she had ten procedures on a single day. (Incomprehensible as well as disturbing. She did have 10 surgeries. Montag was asked if she was "addicted." Note the headline repeated the denial. We're not sure what she possibly could have said, except "this was a mistake.")
People.com, "Heidi Montag: My Surgeries Aren't an Addiction," January 19, 2010
"Obama is not Martha Coakley in drag," said Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., about the President's appearance in Boston to try to boost Martha Coakley's campaign to replace the late Senator Kennedy. (We're puzzled by this comment, too. Rep. Frank was asked about whether the President would be affected if his appearance did not boost Ms. Coakley's chances, given that the President's appearances in New Jersey and Virginia didn't help the democratic gubernatorial candidates there. Frank characterized the Massachusetts race as "a personality contest," which we think seriously misreads the message from the voters. Note that the "drag" comment was plucked out to become the headline.)
The Washington Times Watercooler blog, "Barney Frank: Martha Coakley is not Barack Obama in drag," January 17, 2010
"I did this for health purposes. There's no way I did this for any type of strength purposes," wailed Mark McGwire, finally telling us what we knew all along – that he used steroids when he broke home run records in the late '90s. (McGwire sounds whiney, defensive and just as insincere as his testimony in 2005 before a Congressional committee when he refused to answer questions, saying he was "not here to talk about the past." He further damaged his story by claiming steroids had nothing to do with his 12 appearances as an All-Star. He said, "There's no way a pill or injection will give you hand-eye coordination or the ability or the great mind that I've had as a baseball player." Great mind? Great Liar! The even bigger loser is MLB, which has allowed him to take a coaching role.)
The Associated Press, "Mark McGwire finally admits using steroids," January 12, 2010
"I am not a monster," said a woman who pleaded guilty to killing her adopted quadriplegic daughter and stashing her body in a storage unit. (Monster? What else could possibly describe such a person?)
The Associated Press, "Michigan Mom Sentenced in Death of Quadriplegic Daughter," January 11, 2010
"Michael Steele is not in violation of the rules of the Republican National Committee," said Reince Priebus, the organization's general counsel. (Chairman Steele has taken the unprecedented position of writing a book and of charging significant fees for giving speeches. He may not be in violation of rules, but he's certainly violating the spirit of the job. That's what Party Chairmen do – they give speeches and write!! And it certainly doesn't make the Republican Party look good.)
The Washington Times, "Ex-RNC chiefs rip Steele speaking fees," December 28, 2009
"They got together and swore a pact with the devil… ever since they have been cursed by one thing after the other," said televangelist Pat Robertson about the earthquake in Haiti. (This is an example of forgetting that one audience can overhear comments made to another. What is familiar to those speaking the language of sin and damnation seems over-the-top and outrageous to those who don't. Rev. Robertson went on to talk about how the Dominican Republic is prosperous and thriving, but Haiti is desperate. His main pitch was to "help the suffering people and the suffering is unimaginable.")
Huffington Post, "Pat Robertson: Haiti 'Cursed' by 'Pact To The Devil'" January 12, 2010
"The task at hand is formidable… but we've got weapons, we've still got weapons," said University of Tennessee basketball coach, Bruce Pearl. (Unfortunately, Coach Pearl's challenges stem from having four players suspended for drug and gun charges. To be fair, the coach quickly caught himself, saying "that's terrible, I apologize, we still have players that have abilities." Moral is to think before speaking. Even better, rehearse.)
Back Porch Fan House, "Bruce Pearl Says Vols Have Weapons, Promptly Apologizes," January 5, 2010
"I'm blacker than Barack Obama," said former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich in a long, self-pitying interview. (This comment has received widespread publicity and been justifiably ridiculed. Perhaps Blagojevich grew up in the lower-middle class, but the comment was ludicrous.)
Esquire, "The Notorious Blago," February 2010
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev, described President Obama as a "A light skinned" African-American "with no Negro dialect unless he wanted to have it." (The largely unremarked facets of this eruption are that Senator Reid was excited about then-Senator Obama's Presidential bid and that the comment was made in a private setting and reported anonymously. While much comparison has been made to former Majority Leader Trent Lott's toast to then-Senator Strom Thurmond, that comment was made at a public forum. This shows that no off-the-cuff or private comment is safe from being selectively reported and blown-up into a huge controversy.)
HuffPost SocialNews, "Harry Reid 'Negro' Comment: Reid Apologizes for 'No Negro Dialect'" January 9, 2010
"I think it was some poor teenage judgment, and no wrongdoing," said New York Gov. David Patterson after his son was found playing dice with friends and having a woman's debit card. (Wrong. Having someone else's debit card is not acceptable. Their story that they found it on the subway may be true, but the correct action would have been to turn it in. Plus, the young man refused to provide name and ID to the police while his friends did. He clearly thought he was untouchable. Gov. Patterson looks weak and out-of-touch.)
The New York Post, "Gov: Son acted like dumb teen," January 14, 2010
An architect firm that makes high-end entryways for estates began its newsletter with a paragraph titled "The 5:37 Hotty Jogger," which described driving along and seeing a "hotty jogger" and fixating on her "tight glistening skin" and other attributes. The paragraph was followed by pictures and descriptions of their stunning work product. About an hour later, a halfhearted apology followed, saying, "Our intent was to take a common occurrence to illustrate how designers would like their work to be appreciated." ("Common occurrence?" What planet are the writers living on? Are all drivers seeing "hotties" as they drive home and ogling them?)
Rustic Elegance Iron Doors Newsletter, January 13, 2010
A British disc jockey played Van Halen's "Jump" as police tried to talk a woman out of committing suicide by jumping off a bridge. The DJ, Steve Penk, refused to apologize because he was responding to the frustration of other drivers who called into the radio station to complain about the traffic tie-up.
MSNBC, "DJ plays 'Jump' as woman mulls suicide," January 18, 2010
"Keith has done a minimal amount of anything except keeping taxes low," said John Muns, a Republican challenging incumbent Collin County Judge Keith Self. (This is a criticism? Republican primary voters want taxes low! Talk about misreading your audience!)
The Lone Star Reporter, "Collin County Judge attacked in GOP primary for CUTTING taxes," January 8, 2010
A New York Times reporter found homeless men and women pawing through bags of clothing in the alley behind an H&M clothing store. All the clothing had been slashed and destroyed, so it was unusable. The store manager referred questions to their United States headquarters where 10 phone calls and e-mails were not returned. The New York Times noted that H&M had a commitment to corporate responsibility on its website, and that to save paper it had shrunk shipping labels. A spokesperson for non-profit New York Cares offered to take unworn or unsold garments, but noted that they had received no response either.
The New York Times, "Clothing Clearance Where More than Just the Prices Have Been Slashed," January 6, 2010
The New York Times revealed that Goldman Sachs was placing trading bets against investments it had recommended to clients. Goldman executive, Thomas Mazarakis, sent an email to clients saying, "We may trade, and may have existing positions based on trading ideas before we have discussed those trading ideas with you." (What on earth does this mean? It means, "We may be on both sides of a deal; we'll tell you to buy while we're betting against it." First of all, this e-mail was destined to become public, and Goldman knew it, also adding that "there is nothing new in this disclosure." Wrong. As the Times wrote, "Mr. Mazarakis makes clear that when it comes to his unit's advice, the firm comes first." We hope customers are listening. So much for putting the customer first.)

Durant received his first All-Star game MVP award Sunday night after leading the West to a 152-149 victory over the East.
The Oklahoma City Thunder forward scored 36 points and grabbed seven rebounds to help the West build a 21-point cushion before withstanding a late charge by LeBron James and the East.
Durant said afterward that being an All-Star MVP was something he dreamed about as a kid and he was happy to share the experience with Thunder coach Scott Brooks and teammate Russell Westbrook.

Intelligent system
Our system connects the CRM process of customers with similar problems, as it happens in the case of web 2.0 services. CRM employees can obtain data that have already been asked for by other employees in similar cases. As a side-effect of this solution, the database-requests of CRM processes can be optimized to a great extent.
[The new GUI based on a multilevel wizard]
The GUI changes according to what kind of questions most of the customers have. If set up properly, the system can react in a very sensitive way to new trends and changes as a result of newly introduced products and services. With managing the system manually, the Company can set a direction to the daily activites of CRM employees.
To make it short: our aim was to transfer the quality of the Company-customer interface from the skills of an employee to the GUI of CRM software.

My daughter started up first, then a few years later, my husband started, and then I was the last one to join in a few months after he stepped on the mat.
I very much enjoy the fact that our entire family has essentially the same hobby. My daughter is studying Tae Kwon Do, while my husband and I are studying Modern Arnis. We all study at the same school under the same teacher. Our youngest daughter wants to start class as soon as she's old enough.
|Younger Daughter demonstrating a Dos Manos drill.
However, there are pros and cons to training with family.
- Mutual support system: We all understand the issues and problems each of us struggle with, because we're all doing essentially the same thing. We can talk to each other about issues we're having and because we have deep knowledge of the subject, we can genuinely be very helpful.
- Martial Arts Geekery: We always have someone we can discuss the martial arts with - yes, when you're geeky about it as we all are, it's important!
- Equipment: we can share some equipment, especially weapons (that helps save money, believe me).
- Schedules: while we have different "martial arts" nights, we all have essentially the same schedule and we're not going different directions every night of the week.
- Hypersensitivity to criticism: I think, when you are in a close relationship, it's easy to take constructive criticism in an training environment personally. It *feels* hurtful, even if it's no different than what someone completely unrelated to you might say.
- Imbalance of Power: If both partners of a couple are training together, this can be very difficult. On the mat, one person may have higher rank and knowledge than the other. Off the mat, the couple should be essentially equals. Sometimes, it's difficult to make a distinction between the two situations - accepting the higher/lower status on the mat and the equal status off the mat (one bleeds into the other). It may drive one half of the couple to quit training to save the relationship.
- Schedules: since you're all doing the same thing all the time, it leaves little time to get other stuff done (like laundry!)

Tonight we have a terrific story from Wisconsin writer, Charles Payseur. Charles' story wrestles with several classic science fiction themes: Life finds a way to survive. The relationship of zoe and gnosis. What makes a person a person? And of course, the feeling that one doesn't quite fit in – the epitome of lonliness. This is a stark and lovely story. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
The electric claxon sounded, reminded Vernon that there was little enough time, that his hands, shaking with age and excitement, had to work faster still, had to rush to force life into the thing before him, the unwanted toy that he would make new again, make whole again. There were thoughts, secret thoughts, that flashed through his mind as he completed circuits, acutely aware that in two minutes the Storm would be at its fullest, that mathematical probability stated then would be the time to activate, to throw loose the doors of possibility, of mortality, of human understanding. We can be whole again, those thoughts told him, we can live again.
The apparatus on his head shifted as he bent over the frame, metal and plastics, artificial flesh and his own idea of form, and he cursed to himself and pushed it back into place, took the vital second to secure the chin strap tighter, hoping he had time. Outside the Storm was raging, the Storm because somewhere in the pit of his stomach Vernon knew it was the last. No second chances on this, no retries; everything had to be perfect. Fifty years of warnings and missives, all ignored, all laughed at, and now here, over seventy years old and doing the work the younger generations would never have the chance to refine.
There were others, he knew, other men and women who had read the articles in the least of publications, had sent him letters expressing interest. Without Mila, sweetest Mila, he would never have made the arms work, and without Professor Santiago the eyes would still be basic sensors and not the sophisticated array they were now. Each had their own chance to survive, their own stations like his own where they would also be working furiously, trying to adapt, trying to prove that science and reason could overcome where even biology failed.
Theirs was a biology of circuits, electricity, will. There was nothing else now; it had all been stripped away to make room for the essential, for the most vital. Survival mocked him as the next siren sounded a minute left. His hands fumbled with the last component, the processor that Dr Patel, Pagrati, the best of them, had made, had shipped to each of them in the Trust before fate had taken her life and most of her continent. The thought of the asteroid striking India first, obliterating that mind, that imagination, was almost hardest to bare, hardest to forgive among the billions that were dead.
They would meet somewhere in South America, someplace that at the least wouldn't completely freeze their new bodies, that would allow them the facilities perhaps to continue on in some fashion, to try and unlock the last of the secrets, the last of the surprises hidden away in their beings. Ageless, Vernon worried that they would be unable to create new life, new anything capable of surviving the new status quo. Ageless, he worried that they wouldn't care to, that in the end it was mortality, the constant threat, that was truly mother of invention.
No time, though, no time for the moral questions that less scientific minds would preoccupy themselves with. Vernon made the last connection and hit the controls, activated just as the last signal sounded, and he saw the readings all around: time, temperature and energy spiraling down as everything was drawn into the apparatus, into his own mind and then into the shell he had made for himself, ageless, beautiful. For a moment it was as if he was in two places, as if he could see the blood trickling down his human nose as he could see the machinations of his artificial body come online. He looked into his own eyes, into his own sensor array, then died, lived.
A moment only his limbs remained passive on the table before they moved, almost ponderously, to support weight, swing legs to the floor, stand cleanly. There was no questioning that, no worrying that he would fall, that specifications would fail and he would break, helpless, alone. He walked to the controls, sensors taking in the data as one, saw the massive drain in power the process had taken, calculated the damage, the remaining capabilities of the facility, decided to venture up. Months, years he had spent down in the dark, wrapping the layers of technology around himself, building the cocoon from which he had emerged fundamentally changed.
Elevators were down, lacked the energy to reach the surface, but there was a service ladder, incredibly high, a bargain with his old self, that if something went wrong, if he was unable to transition, that there would be no leaving, no way for the aged body to climb the five hundred feet into the Storm. He grasped the rungs of the ladder, began pulling himself, step by step, his body immediately suited for the task, for any task. His mind communicated with his limbs, instructed, while the rest followed, the body like the Trust, like all of them, an aggregate of parts and knowledge brought now to perfect harmony.
Stepping into the outside was like walking into the sea, everything churning, everything alive with movement, waves of strange green material swarming around him. It was the Storm, it was extinction, a gift from the asteroid, not content to decimate but bent on taking it all, biological stowaways like algae that awakened on impact, which multiplied, fed on nearly everything organic. Warnings unheeded. Somewhere there might have been a few in the installations under the waves, but he was beyond caring for them now, beyond almost everything except the strange absence in him, a loneliness, a need to connect.
South America was a long walk, but as the Storm buffeted him he knew that he was safe, that the frame would hold, that in two weeks when the Storm died away and everything was dead or dying he would still be walking south, alive, alone.
Charles Payseur currently resides in Eau Claire, WI, with his wife and cat. When not cooking or ravenous consuming books, he can normally be found in front of the computer writing, and his work has appeared in _NOTA_ and as a semifinalist in the 2012 Wisconsin Public Radio Ghost Story Flash Fiction Contest.

Worthing Herald celebrated an important FA Trophy victory for its local
football side by commissioning a cartoon "report" of the game.
Bob Bond, bylined as El Bobbo, produced the artwork, which the Herald ran alongside its normal match report.
Editor Jon Buss said: "The reaction from the club and players was good – they liked seeing something different."
And the readers? "This is Worthing! We love our readers to bits, but they are quick to chide and slow to bless. Ask me again when the ABCs come out."

Leaving AF and becoming homeless are not synonymous.
After soldier XYZ leaves AF, that soldier is still employed by
the US Armed Forces.
My recommendation to all in the Armed Forces is to stay
where you are until you have real options.
Try a little cross training. If you survive Afghanistan and your hitch is up, move over to the Coast Guard and rescue people for the Weather Channel. Bu r perhaps the gentleman on the right is a National Guardsman and has lost his home due to not being rotated out as promised.

Kaiser Permanente won The Bond Buyer's 16th annual Deal of the Year award Wednesday night for its $4.2 billion sale which represented the largest aggregate financing by a 501(c)3 healthcare institution, the largest taxable issuance by a 501(c)3 healthcare institution, and the largest Green Bond issuance by any healthcare organization.
The California Health Facilities Financing Authority was the conduit issuer on the $2.1 billion tax-exempt component. Proceeds of the bonds were to be used to finance the San Diego Medical Center and other health care facilities, fund general corporate purposes, and refinance commercial paper.
"This year, our editorial board has selected a deal that, had it not yet been completed, would be under threat by the pending legislation in Washington," said Michael Scarchilli, Editor in Chief of The Bond Buyer, at the Dec. 6 gala. "It's a milestone, record-breaking transaction that represented a triumphant return to the public markets after half a decade away."
The Oakland, Calif.-based Kaiser Permanente is the nation's largest not-for-profit healthcare system. It provides healthcare services across the nation through an integrated system of health plans, hospitals and physician groups that serve 11.7 members across eight states and Washington, D.C.
For 16 years, the editors of The Bond Buyer have selected outstanding municipal bond transactions for recognition. The 2017 awards, which were distributed at a ceremony at 583 Park Avenue in Manhattan, drew nominations that represent the diverse range of communities and public purposes served by the municipal finance market.
The other finalists were:
The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority's $370 million issuance of sustainability bonds and bond anticipation notes. Proceeds of the offering, the first tax-exempt sustainability bonds ever issued in the United States, will go exclusively toward projects that benefit the environment or society more broadly.
The Fort Worth Transportation Authority's first-ever transaction, a $325 million private placement to fund a commuter rail line that will alleviate traffic, provide much-needed rail service to Dallas-Fort Worth airport, connectivity to Dallas Area Rapid Transit's rail system, as well as improving air quality.
The $1.3 billion inaugural financing from the newly-created Great Lakes Water Authority, among the most sizable water and sewer systems in North America. The sale unlocked substantial debt service savings for ratepayers and provided necessary funds for water system capital projects at an attractive borrowing rate.
The Kentucky Economic Development Financing Authority's $472 million deal to benefit Owensboro Health. The sale represents the first new use of commercial bond insurance and first use of a surety in place of a Debt Service Reserve Fund in non-profit healthcare finance since the credit crisis a decade ago.
The Bay Area Toll Authority's $1.9 billion sale as part of its San Francisco Bay Area Toll Bridge Seismic Retrofit Program. Over the past decade, BATA has completed more than $13.7 billion of bond financings and refinancings as part of the program, which has provided critical funding for retrofitting seven bay area bridges including the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge.
The City of Cambridge, Mass.' $2 million sale of minibonds, with minimum denominations of $1,000, to fund city-wide municipal and school projects. The minibond structure allowed Cambridge to respond to an unmet need of its residents, who regularly expressed interest in actively investing in capital projects throughout the city.
The City of Missoula, Mont.'s $138 million sale of bond anticipation notes to purchase its water system from a private company. This was the inaugural financing for the city's newly formed water enterprise and the culmination of over six years of legal battles to purchase the water system through Montana's eminent domain statutes.

Hood River County Fair
Oh, hi there. I'm Emily and I'm really behind on blogging… Seriously though there are five drafts sitting in my "Posts" section and I don't even know what I was planning on doing with some of them since it's been so long! I'm attempting to catch up though so yay me! These photos are from when we went to the Hood River County Fair a couple weeks ago!
The fair took place a few days before the crazy heat wave came through Hood River so it was actually beautiful weather that evening!
Can we talk about this Sonnet James dress for a minute please? It isn't a maternity dress, but it's so comfortable for maternity! Scott actually got me this dress for Christmas last year. Yes, he bought me clothes without me picking them out and yes he did an amazing job! I love this dress and how functional and comfortable it is. And I'm excited that I'll get to wear it just as much after baby comes!
So, sad story about the fair… Scott and I had a little miscommunication about who was going to bring the cash, but we didn't realize it until we were at the entrance… We figured at the entrance they would take card and then we'd use the little cash that we did have to pay for the kids to ride a few things. BUT, the entrance did not take card, they were cash only. They said there was an ATM inside the fair so we gave them pretty much all of our cash and were hopeful that the ticket counter took card, and if not that we'd have the ATM to get more cash out. Well, the ticket counter definitely did not take card either! AND lucky us, the ATM was totally busted. Poor Carter was so excited to ride the airplanes, trains, and carousel but he didn't get to because his parents forgot the cash! Luckily there was a whole section dedicated to the FFA and 4H programs so we spent almost 2 hours looking at and petting animals haha.
Zellie is obsessed with animals so she was having the time of her life squealing at all of them 🙂
28 week bump date photo! I'm 32 weeks now and boy, let me tell you, 4 weeks makes such a huge difference in that belly size! No joke, I totally feel pregnant now that I can't bend down without grunting and you better believe I need help getting back up.
This pig was so funny! It jumped up in excitement as we were walking close to it so Scott and the kids went over to pet it. It was wagging it's tail and twitching it's ears and then slowly started to melt to the ground as the kids were petting it haha. This pig loved the attention!
Even though we didn't get to do any rides this time, we still had a lot of fun as a family and I'm so grateful for these kiddos of mine! I'm the luckiest momma!

Brad Pitt Remains Positive He'll Get Joint Custody Of Kids With Angelina Jolie
As the divorce proceedings continue, actor Brad Pitt is still battling for joint custody of the kids he has with ex-wife Angelina Jolie.
But a source close to the star has recently revealed to The Sun that the 53-year old is pretty confident he will succeed in his fight for shared parenting over his six children.
Since the announcement of their shocking split a few months ago, the Academy award winner has been striving to ensure he sees as much of his children as possible.
Pitt has only been allowed supervised visits with Maddox, 15, Pax, 13, Zahara, 12, Shiloh, 10 and twins Knox and Vivienne, aged 8, since Angelina filed for divorce in September 2016.
Jolie, who fell in love with Pitt when they were co-stars on Mr & Mrs Smith, originally said she wanted to have full custody of the couple's children in the divorce documents.
Brad is feeling positive about the temporary agreement of supervised visits being lifted when the divorce is finalised, and hopes he will play just as big of a role in the kids' lives as Angelina will.
The Hollywood actor's source revealed that the way Ange has acted during the highly emotional court battle with Brad will work in his favour.
Talking to The Sun, they said,
This is a massive victory for Brad because all he ever wanted was joint custody. At no point did he ever want to take the kids away from Angelina, which she initially tried to do him. Brad Pitt's lawyers believe the court will look badly on Angelina's negative PR campaign against him.
The source continued,
Things have come full circle since they announced their separation. Obviously anything can happen and things could still change, but right now the negotiations are looking very positive for Brad.
Brad has recently been seen in public looking a lot happier, giving more reason for fans to believe that he will triumph in court.
The couple, who were once deemed Hollywood's hottest couple, agreed in the New Year to keep their divorce proceedings and custody battle out of the public eye for the sake of their children's happiness.

With only three days left to nominate your faves in this year's Visibility Awards, we're ready to make the case for who we think should win. Can we sway you?
Chelsea Steiner: Guys, we need to talk about Ellen Page's Twitter. Adorable dog photos? Check. Adorable surfer girlfriend? Check. Willingness to name anyone's dog who asks? Check and check. Give this tiny woman a prize already!
Lianna Carrera: I gotta go with Master of None for Favorite TV Comedy. POCs on TV in control of their own narrative is good for us all. Also, I did not know that Aziz was such a lovable dorky guy. I really like what he's done with the show.
Valerie Anne: I know my answer to things like this is always Orphan Black but they never win real awards so I'm nominating them for Favorite TV Drama. Cosima is such a dynamic character, and she's had deep, meaningful connections with two different women over the 30-episode arc. Bisexual badass Delphine was given the traditional tragic hero story usually given to men – fighting and sacrificing everything for the woman she loves (and that woman's family). Tatiana Maslany is also a champion for Cosima and for LGBT visibility and is supportive of the #clonesbians and our love of her characters.
And special shout-out to the Orphan Black social media team—I knew they were great because they're always witty and in tune with the fans' favorite lines, etc ("As a lesbian…supporter" for example), and give equal weighting to every ship when they pander and swoon, but after seeing the colossal failing of other social media accounts that shall not be named in this past year, I appreciate them even more.
Daniela Costa: I'm throwing my support behind Amy Acker for Favorite TV Actress and her character Root on Person of Interest as Favorite Lesbian/Bi TV Character. I've never seen flirt game like that! Plus, Root is such a complex character and Amy plays her brilliantly. She's also great with fans and is the model Shoot shipper.
Lucy Hallowell: U.S. Women's Soccer Team for Best Lesbian/Bi Allies. Their team is filled with a mix of queer and straight women and they make it look just as easy as it always should be. They show up at their teammates weddings (gay or straight), they laugh when asked if it's weird to be in a locker room with lesbians. They put every all-male team to shame for being such a bunch of babies about gay players. As POTUS said, playing like a girl means you're a badass. Same goes for being an ally like these women. Bad. Ass.
Bridget McManus: I'm picking Carol for Best Movie because it is outstanding in every way. It is superbly acted, beautifully directed and the story honors the LGBTQ community and shows us in a positive light. It's incredibly rare to have such a lavishly produced mainstream film tell a non-tragic, romantic story about lesbian lives, especially one set in a period of US history that was notoriously difficult for lesbians! And, let's not forget Cate Blanchett is the title character.
Dana Piccoli: Cate Blanchett has gotten much of the attention for Carol, but I'm tossing my support to Rooney Mara for Favorite Movie Actress. She nails the character of Therese with such understated grace and beauty, that I think she even brings out facets of the character that are lost in the book. Get it, Rooney.
Erin Faith Wilson: Taraji P Henson for Favorite TV Actress because she keeps it real and doesn't give a fuck about what anyone thinks. COOKIE FOR LIFE.
Marcie Bianco: Holland Taylor, "Best Coming Out" because girlfriend was like "I was never not out" and n'importe quoi and all that jazz.
Trish Bendix: Lily Tomlin for Favorite Movie Actress. She's a living legend and she kills it in Grandma, guys. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it. It's super feminist and queer and LILY TOMLIN!
Who are you pulling for in this year's Visiblity Awards?

Little Eagles Preschool
Program Philosophy
The Reggio Emilia approach is an educational philosophy focused on preschool and primary education that was developed by Loris Malaguzzi, a teacher, and the parents in the villages around Reggio Emilia in Italy after World War II. The theory was that people form their own personality during early years of development and, moreover, that children are endowed with "a hundred languages". The program is based on the principles of respect, responsibility, and community through exploration and discovery in a supportive and enriching environment based on the interests of the children through a self-guided curriculum. This unique and innovation education system has developed over the last 50 years into a program that has caught the attention of early childhood educators worldwide.
Every child has an innate curiosity that drives their interest to understand their world and their place within it. Creating a network of communication between the children, parents and teachers of Reggio is vital. They work together toward a common purpose: the building of a culture which respects childhood as a time to explore, create and be joyful. In essence, letting go of the traditional roles of teacher/student and letting the students develop their own sense of self and community through play.
Our Values & Beliefs
Children are capable of constructing their own learning
Children form an understanding of themselves and their place in the world through their interactions with others
Children are communicators
The environment is the third teacher
The environment is recognized for its potential to inspire children. An environment filled with natural light, order and beauty. Open spaces free from clutter, where every material is considered for its purpose, every corner is ever-evolving to encourage children to delve deeper and deeper into their interests.
The adult is a mentor and guide and not the giver of knowledge. Children search out the knowledge through their own investigations.
Our role as adults is to observe our children, listen to their questions and their stories, find what interests them and then provide them with opportunities to explore these interests further. The projects are not planned in advanced, they emerge based on the child's interests.
An emphasis on documenting children's thoughts
This is accomplished through photographs, transcripts of children's thoughts and explanations, visual representations such as drawings/paintings/sculptures,etc.
The Hundred Languages of Children
the most well-known aspect of the Reggio Emilia Approach. The belief that children use many different ways to show their understanding and express their thoughts and creativity.

Before we get into the details of the audition, we would just like to say that we are so excited you want to join our group! We work hard and have a lot of fun, and we're thrilled to sing with you!
You can sign up for an audition here or at our table in White Plaza during NSO (Wednesday Sept. 20 through Sunday Sept. 24, 2017). Auditions will happen the first few days of classes (Monday Sept. 25 & Tuesday 26), and callbacks will take place on Thursday Sept. 28. Be sure to drop by O-Show on Sunday, Sept. 24, too!
The actual audition will go like this: You walk in, we'll warm your voice up with a few ascending and descending scales and you'll amaze us with pitch-matching and rhythm-mastering skills. Then we will sit back in awe as you sing a solo song of 1-2 minutes. That's it! Short and sweet.
As for the solo, this is your time to take command of the stage! We usually ask you to sing a verse and a chorus, so pick a selection of song that you're comfortable singing, shows off your voice, and reflects your style.
If you have any further questions, feel free to contact us at any time! We're so excited to hear you sing!

Commercial intern at the Danish Trade Council in Lithuania
The Danish Embassy in Lithuania is looking for a commercial intern for a 6-month period in the spring of 2019 from February 1st 2019 until July 31st 2019. The intern will deal with a wide range of work at the Embassy within the commercial area.
If you are a student with an interest in the Baltics/Eastern Europe, we can offer you a stay in Lithuania, which is an important partner for Denmark and offers an attractive market for the Danish companies.
The Embassy's Trade Department is a part of the Trade Council, which is a part of the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The Trade Department is also a part of a regional cooperation in the Baltic-Finish sub-region within the Baltic-Nordic region and it assists Danish companies in export promotion and economic diplomacy in order to secure the best conditions for Danish companies at the Lithuanian and Baltic markets. The Embassy in Vilnius offers an exciting and supporting work environment, where you can test and develop your professional competencies. You will also have an opportunity to learn about life and culture in Lithuania and the other Baltic countries and live in the old town of Vilnius – one of the most charming European cities with many university students.
You must be a graduate student of a university in the field of economics, business, marketing and/or communication. We encourage Danish, Lithuanian as well as international students to apply. Foreign nationals may be offered an internship at the Embassy provided they have lived in Denmark for a number of years, are enrolled in an education programme at a Danish institution of higher education and are, at the time of application, residing in Denmark.
The intern will work with both export and trade promotion as well as tasks related to the public diplomacy area. The tasks include, but are not limited to, solving specific commercial cases, export and sales promotion such as matchmaking and partner searches for Danish companies, implementation of the annual sales and marketing plan. The tasks can also include business assistance for Danish companies as well as market analysis, reviews and intelligence according to specific requests from Danish businesses, regularly reviewing and updating information about the market situation and business opportunities in Lithuania, preparation of meeting programs and assistance during visits to Lithuania and Denmark.
In addition, the intern will have the possibility to participate in various business related conferences, events, networking activities, business meetings, negotiations and business strategy implementation. The intern will have a unique opportunity to see the internationalisation processes of Danish companies from the inside and gain the knowledge of go-to-the market strategy implementation.
The aim of the internship
The internship will contribute to the student's education and will be organized in a manner that will ensure credit transfer if the intern's place of study permits this. Furthermore, the intern will have a possibility to establish a business network between both Lithuanian and Danish companies.
Expectations for the intern
To be considered you must be enrolled at a Danish institution of higher education with a minimum of a bachelor's degree. Proficiency in English and, preferably, but not compulsory, also in Danish, overview, independence and good interpersonal skills are also requirements.
In addition, the existence of security clearance is a requirement before starting the internship. The security clearance will be obtained by the Embassy.
What we offer
If you want to be a part of a dynamic international organization, which always has focused on delivering the best possible advises for Danish companies and individuals – please join us. You will be in the centre of economic, political and cultural relations between Denmark and Nordic-Baltic region.
You can use your SU grant during the internship, as internship is unpaid. Actual costs of living in Vilnius are somewhat lower than in Denmark.
Application and CV, recent transcripts and possible relevant statements should be addressed to the Ambassador, labelled "Commercial intern" and sent in one PDF document via e-mail to email@example.com.
The application can also be sent to:
Ambassador Dan E. Frederiksen

Lasers for ion trapping
C-WAVE at work with trapped ions
In this applications note we read how the flexibility of the C-WAVE's single frequency tunable wavelength can be utilized for ion trapping experiments.
Coulomb crystals consisting of isotopically pure Magnesium ions are build employing a new tunable continuous-wave (cw) laser light source: Mg atoms are isotope-selective ionized by resonant two-photon excitation at a wavelength of 285.3 nm. The UV laser light is generated via resonant second-harmonic generation of the output of a new cw laser C-WAVE that offers about 0.5 W single frequency output power that is tunable in the range 450 – 650 nm. The created Mg ions are trapped and cooled, building 2D Coulomb crystals which are used for further investigation.

This is part one of a three-part series. Read part two, Chesapeake Bay water clean-up model: What Midwest farmers learned and part three, Chesapeake model: Who'll pay for Mississippi River's clean-up?
Last Thursday, five Illinois Soybean Association growers returned home spooked by their three-day fact-finding mission to Eastern Shore Maryland and Delaware. The most cogent take-home message was: U.S. EPA's Chesapeake Bay [water cleanup] model may be headed into the Midwest. And it would impact all farmland, not just concentrated animal feeding operations.
The biggest question was: How soon? No bets were placed on that one since it hinges more on political science than sound science.
The next biggest question was: How can farmers and states abutting the Mississippi River pro-actively prepare for it? Led by the association's Production Committee Chairman Donald Guinnip of Marshall, Ill., the fact-finders included Daryl Cates of Columbia, David Droste of Nashville, John Longley of Aledo and Carrie Winkelmann of Tallula, Ill.
Related: Water Works lawsuit will slow progress on water quality
They learned the regulatory details of Maryland's mandatory nutrient management program and Delaware's voluntary nutrient management plan from State Ag Secretaries Joe Bartenfelder of Maryland and Ed Kee of Delaware, along with the lead managers of both states nutrient management programs. And they visited farms to learn first-hand how crop and broiler chicken producers were coping by the Chesapeake Bay model.
Why the concern?
Since President Obama's 2009 executive order declaring the Chesapeake Bay a "national treasure," this Bay model has been under intense scrutiny and monitoring for progress by EPA, Army Corp of Engineers and the U.S. Geological Survey.
During Fiscal Year 2014, more than $460 million was poured into Chesapeake Bay restoration by the federal government alone, for specific watershed implementation goals to be carried out by state agencies. Another $434 million in federal monies was committed for FY15.
Waterkeeper environmental groups on the lower Mississippi River already have threatened to bring suit against EPA and Army Corp of Engineers, reports Richard Wilkins, first vice president of the American Soybean Association. The latest threat came in March when the Des Moines [Iowa] Water Works filed a lawsuit against three northern Iowa drainage districts for nitrate pollution of the Raccoon River watershed.
The Iowa lawsuit may be a likely Bay model precursor . . . just as the Chesapeake Bay Foundation's initial lawsuit against EPA was the trigger for the Chesapeake Bay's pollution diet, suggests Wilkins, a Greenwood, Del., farmer.
The Chesapeake Bay Model, if imposed on the Mississippi River Basin, could mandate that all 13 states develop watershed implementation plans covering all croplands, not just CAFOs. The Illinois farmers were really spooked by the extensive required nutrient management records on all fields, the equally extensive best management practices needed, and the education and regulatory oversight required. High nitrates in the Kankakee River and Lake Springfield are already well-known problems.
'Show us the money'
The second most important "take home" to the Midwest is: Where's all the money for research, education, cost-sharing and monitoring of a voluntary nutrient management program in each state going to come from? Again, this isn't just about CAFOs. It's about many crop management practices that would have to be changed.
Related: Water quality on the farm: Regulations have cost implications
Guinnip noted that Illinois' 2015-16 state budget, not just its Ag Department budget, has been slashed. Some conservation districts, a key gear in the Bay model, exist in name only with few or no staff.

Despite the wide range of offered spare parts for the Chinese trucks and the activity of dealers, representing the Chinese manufacturers, the buyer should take reasonable and justifiable intelligibility. Cheap bought on the market" collapse" or in disreputable suppliers, spare parts are not justified even by half – soon after the acquisition it fail, we have to buy new ones. In fact, instead of the expected savings consumer gets annoying extra costs and time. It is quite another – parts Dong Feng, procured from reliable proven companies that fully comply with the strict requirements of equipment manufacturers.
The degree of confidence in the company, offering a product you are interested, depends on many factors. But to determine whether the buyer is dealing with a proven supplier of Chinese spare parts or unfair dealer, is really easy. Customer reviews can give much information which have already in practice compared the performance of several companies.

"Hobbledown is pretty local to us and I think it's one of the best family days out you can have in Surrey.

"We had a fantastic 5th birthday party for our son. It was so easy to organise and book via the website and the follow up phone calls to finalise details and answer any of our queries were appreciated. The staff were excellent from start to finish. 13 children had a brilliant time and our host was really good with all party members. The party bags were very good and age appropriate. It was all very organised and it really was hassle free from a parent point of view. I have read negative reviews so took a gamble especially with how expensive it seemed and if you read the website fully it does explain how it works in great detail. Our expectations were exceeded and most importantly our son had a birthday to remember and was enjoyed by all children and parents. We were also able to stay on after party finished and we had an "extended" party in the outdoor area. Definitely good value for money all considered. Well done Hobbledown!" Juliegeo, June 2014
"I was so stressed about my son's birthday party because getting 20 under 5's together is never going to be easy or fun, but – it was – all thanks to you and your team.
Honestly, absolutely first class. Thank you a gazillion. Everything was spot on as per the detail of our booking, the room was fab, the food really good quality, our party host an angel and the party bags were such a surprise and full of not tat, but really good quality, lovely gifts for our guests.
Truly, you have no idea how impressed and grateful we are – even the parents enjoyed it and kept saying how wonderful it was. This birthday was intended to be an extra special one and thanks to you it really was.
I really can't thank you enough. From the moment we arrived and our easy check in I knew it was probably the best birthday he has ever had. I actually relaxed – that's a first in five years!
Please could you kindly pass on my thanks to Sian who confirmed all the arrangements with me and made it all happen on the day, our party host and also to your managers who need to know just how great you are." Sally, October 2016
"I just wanted to drop you a note to thank you for hosting a brilliant party for Calum on Saturday. He loved it!! Could not stop talking about it and had the best time ever!!
Thank you also to Sarah and our party host who kept the children well fed, watered and thoroughly entertained. We will see you again for tea with Santa!" Binti, October 2016
"I just wanted to message a massive thank you to the 2 lovely and amazing Hobblers that hosted my daughters birthday party yesterday. They did an amazing job even when faced with 26 very excited 6-7 year olds and a few menacing siblings and I just wanted to say a massive thank you. We all had a fabulous time and these great girls are a true asset to your business and I hope you can pass on my congratulations for being so wonderful. Thank you again." Helen Ryder, June 2016
"The staff were amazing and went above and beyond to make the kids smile. We came for a family day out for my son's 4th birthday and will be returning soon and telling all our friends." Nikki Oakley, April 2016
"I couldn't wish for a better venue to of had my son's birthday! It was immaculate, with amazing good quality food, amazing indoor play/outdoor play. Everybody had commented on how amazing their day was and how they can't wait to visit again in the summer holidays! We had never visited the farm and were more than pleasantly surprised! Would recommend to anyone.
The kids food and party bags were great also. Cannot wait to visit again. We are coming for my son's actual birthday on the 24th of July; his chosen place to go, which is fine by me! Plenty to do, amazing/reasonable price, friendly staff; what more can I say." C Sulyman, July 2015
"A giant thank you for the most fantastic party for Mia and Otis on Saturday. We loved the whole day. Everyone was terrific, hugely helpful and kind. We wish we could have stayed and explored some more but we had such tired children to take home! We hope to see you again soon." Miki, Richard, Mia and Otis, March 2015
"Thank you for the incredible party yesterday for Millie, Emily, Chole and Eloise! From start to finish your staff were so friendly and helpful, we really couldn't have asked for any more. The whole class really enjoyed themselves and I'm sure it will be the conversation of the day if not week! Hobbledown is amazing and I will be recommending it to all of my friends for a visit or children's party." Hannah Emerson, October 2012
"I wanted to say a huge thank you to making my son's birthday party today the best ever. We had been looking forward to this for ages & you didn't disappoint. I thought the organisation, food, activities, party bags & all the Hobblers that looked after us were brilliant. My son & I have already read 2 chapters of his special birthday book tonight. It is not an inexpensive option to choose for a birthday but I am delighted we went to Hobbledown as it was excellent value for money. Thank you again for making a special day so special & giving us so many happy memories which we will treasure forever." Claire Davies, September 2012
"I just wanted to thank you all for putting on such a wonderful venue/party for Jessica's birthday – it went really really well and everyone had a wonderful time – it really was a fantastic day! Hobbler Natalie was fantastic, she's gold! She was truly very helpful, very friendly, very polite, perfect in every way! Nothing negative about your wonderful 'mysterical' place whatsoever. Thanks ever so much again." Katy France, July 2012.
"I just wanted to drop you a note to say what an amazing day my family and I had at Hobbledown today. We were there for Freddie's birthday this morning and we were all amazed by the transformation even if it wasn't 100% finished. It was great to see the owners walking around, seeing how everything was working and then later on both digging away! Great leadership and pride. Hobbler Scott was absolutely great with all our kids in the "sand mines area" and also David Moore who was out and about as well and very courteous, welcoming and friendly to us all. I really look forward to returning with my family in the near future." Jeremy Wadia, July 2012

Behar's installation centers on a series of sculptures inspired by a science fiction scenario in which commonplace USB peripherals are doomed to continue working long after the humans they were designed to serve have gone extinct. The gadgets are transformed into mutant fossils, encased in stone with lights blinking, speakers chirping, and fans spinning, eternally. The exhibition also includes a video series, Modeling Big Data – in which the artist inhabits an obese, over-grown data body, to humorous and poignant effect, and a 3D printer installation, 3D-&& – in which a fossilized printer slowly produces "scarab" covers for a network of glowing USB mouses, while its motors chirp out messages in Morse Code.

VA Home Loans
There are several different eligibility requirements you must meet to qualify for VA home loans. If you are not sure if you will qualify, you should speak with a mortgage loan or a VA Loan Specialist. One of the first steps toward getting a VA Jumbo Loan is to complete a Certificate of Eligibility.
You may qualify for a VA Loan if you fall into one of the following categories:
- Active-duty Veterans discharged during WWII or later, without the status of "dishonorable"
- Active-duty Veterans with at least 90 consecutive days of service during major conflict
- Peacetime Veterans and active-duty personnel with at least 180 days of consecutive service
- Enlisted Veterans whose service began after 1980, or officers whose service began after 1981, and who have served at least 2 years.
- National Guard and selected Reserve members may also qualify.
Check your eligibility with a qualified VA Loan Specialist if you have any questions.
What Can I Do with a VA Home Loan?
You can use your VA Loan to purchase a house, condominium, or townhouse. You can also build a home, make energy-efficient home improvements, or refinance your mortgage.
Why Would I Want A VA Loan?
There are several reasons why VA home loans may be preferable to standard loans in Denver. Most importantly, if you qualify, you may obtain a VA Loan even if you did not qualify for other loans. There may be no down payment required for a VA Loan, depending on the lender. VA Loans often have lower interest rates than conventional loans, and many times you can negotiate the interest rate with the lender. There are no mortgage insurance premiums on VA Loans, and assumable mortgages are permitted. Closing costs can be lower than other forms of financing, and there is no penalty for prepaying your mortgage. In addition, VA assistance due to temporary financial difficulty is available to those who qualify.
- No Mortgage Insurance
- No Money Down up to $417,000 loan amount
- Loans up to $1,100,000 with limited down payment
- Easy Qualifying Process
Additional in-depth information on VA home loans can be found at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VA_loan
