Prior to 1970, Congress passed other legislation that reflected a growing recognition of disability issues, and efforts were begun to address and respond to some of these issues:
|A public assistance program for people who are "totally and permanently disabled" was added to the Social Security Act. Each state determined eligibility standards and assistance levels according to standards set out in the Act. The program was state administered with financial assistance from the federal government.
|The National Vocational Rehabilitation Act of 1920, which established a system of state vocational rehabilitation agencies, underwent major revisions and became the Vocational Rehabilitation Act.
|Financial support was provided to colleges and universities under P. L. 85-926 for training personnel in leadership positions about teaching children with mental retardation. In 1963, this legislation was expanded to include grants for training higher education teachers and researchers in a broader array of disabilities.
|Title V of the Social Security Act was amended to establish a grant program to improve prenatal care for women from low income families because this group carries an extremely high risk of children with mental retardation and other birth defects.
The Mental Retardation Facilities Construction Act authorized federal support for the construction of mental retardation research centers, university affiliated training facilities, and community facilities for children and adults with mental retardation.
|The Social Security Act of 1965 established the Medicare program under Title XVIII. Statutory authority for the Medicaid program is contained in Title XIX. The initial goal of the Medicaid program was to improve access to and the quality of medical care for all low income people; there were no provisions that related solely to individuals with disabilities. States were required to provide certain services to individuals who were categorically needy, and could offer optional services and choose to cover individuals who were medically needy.
|The Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 authorized a multi-billion dollar financial aid program to help states and local school districts educate children who were considered "educationally deprived." Local districts were required to provide supplementary services to meet the needs of these children. The legislative history of the Act refers to children with disabilities as "educationally disadvantaged children."
|The Mental Retardation Amendments of 1967 expanded the 1963 Act by authorizing funds to help with the costs of starting services in community mental retardation facilities. The Bureau of Education for the Handicapped was established within the United States Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. Parents continued to advocate for legislative changes, particularly during the 1970s. Following are some legislative milestones in the history of the disabilities movement:

I just love how my socks are turning out. They really remind me of fall colors. I couldn't resist taking a picture of them hanging on the Burning Bush by our deck. Heel flaps are coming along. I took a break from socks to knit up a scarf that will be for Kim for Christmas or her birthday. I used yummy Classic Elite Bravo yarn, which is a silk/mohair/wool/rayon/nylon blend. It's a double strand. One is mohair-y looking and the other has a cotton-y look to it that is multi colored. I added a strand of satiny ribbon yarn and it turned out to be quite pretty. Picture to follow when I get the fringe added. (if you click the link, the one I got is #3736, the 4th one) I used a pink ribbon yarn to go with it and I love the combination of the textures.
So, my holiday knitting has begun! About time, I think!

They were exhausted, their muscles aching, but it didn't mean they weren't ready to celebrate.
They were a part of history for the Penn State men's hockey team. In just the fifth season of Division I play, the Nittany Lions have booked their tickets for the NCAA Tournament.
Just over 12 hours after winning their first Big Ten title in a double-overtime marathon — a 2-1 win over Wisconsin — Penn State players learned they will face Union (25-9-3) in the first round at 4:30 p.m. Saturday at US Bank Arena in Cincinnati.
Everyone looked tired and worn Sunday as they waited to hear their name announced at Letterman's Sports Bar and Gastro Pub during a viewing party of the NCAA bracket announcement.
"The last two games were very grueling," senior captain David Goodwin said. "Very emotionally and physically draining, but I think everyone's super excited for Saturday and I think we feel really good with our matchup."
The Nittany Lions (24-11-2) survived a trying three days in Detroit, first dispatching Michigan before stunning regular-season champion Minnesota in double overtime on Friday, then going two extra periods again the next night against the Badgers.
"Honestly, I don't know how they did what they did," coach Guy Gadowsky said of his team. "That was an incredible physical feat."
As impressive as the team was to still be competing in the fifth period of play Saturday, Gadowsky and the coaches were concerned before the game even began.
With the win over the Gophers the night before, everyone already knew they had likely clinched a spot in the tournament and could have coasted against Wisconsin.
"We didn't know what was going to happen," Gadowsky said. "We could have been down 4-0 after 10 minutes and we wouldn't have been shocked."
Surviving the whole time on the ice — all 240 minutes — was goalie Peyton Jones, who stopped 118 of 123 shots he faced over the three days.
He may not have been sprinting up and down the ice, but his exhaustion was more from the mental side. One mistake in any of the overtime periods would have ended it all.
"I was pretty tired," said Jones, who had 51 saves Saturday. "I wasn't going to say it, and guys in the locker room weren't going to say it, but we were tired."
Scoring both goals Saturday night was freshman Liam Folkes, who recorded the game-winner on a breakaway.
"I don't know how I got that open," Folkes said. "I just do that move in practice all the time, and it worked out here."
The scoring burst by the freshman was savored on the bench. Goodwin figures he's watched replays just of the team on the bench watching Folkes score the winner about 30 times.
"Last night we were all together when we got home and we were all watching it," Goodwin said. "We were commenting on how we could watch it forever."
Gadowsky also has been watching replays.
"It's a little addicting," he said with a grin.
Joining the Nittany Lions and Dutchmen will be No. 1 overall seed Denver and Michigan Tech, who will battle in the other regional game at 8 p.m. Saturday. The winners will face off at 6 p.m. Sunday to earn a trip to the Frozen Four at the United Center in Chicago on April 6 and 8.
Despite Penn State's short varsity history, this will not be the first meeting with Union. They tangled twice in 2013 and again in 2014, with Union winning all four contests. One game in 2013 at Penn State had the Lions leading in the third period before the Dutchmen rallied, winning with three seconds left in regulation.
Last weekend, Union lost to Cornell in the semifinals of the ECAC tournament. The Dutchmen, who are in the NCAA field for the fifth time in the last eight seasons and won the title in 2014, are led by Mike Vecchione and Spencer Foo. Both are among the 10 finalists for the Hobey Baker Award, given annually to the nation's top player. Vecchione leads the nation averaging 1.71 points per game, while Foo is third at 1.64 points per game.
"I know they're a really good team," Gadowsky said. "They have a great culture, they're very hard working and obviously now they have some high-end talent to go along with that."

borrowed words at a funeral
remembering a life
michael d. driscoll
pop culture
I have never been able to say the right words at a funeral, so I often remain quiet, waiting for it to pass. I struggle not to echo the borrowed words we condition ourselves to use upon death, instead choosing silence over greeting-card sincerity. This is my failure.
We are conditioned to use words like "sorry" and "condolences" along with "time of sorrow" and "loss"—take your pick. We manipulate the words but they never change the situation. We use scripture and God and Jesus and Heaven to shift our focus, to look forward instead of backwards. We are conditioned to use these words and we hand them out like favorite recipes. People die and we continue to say the same things over and over until we believe the words mean something when in truth they just make noise. The words make background noises that lull us; at least this is how I feel right now at a time when I cannot say the words nor change the situation.
So when the call came in that a close friend's nephew drove off the road into the moonlit woods, killing himself and a friend, the cycle of recycled words began again and I couldn't bring myself to speak the expected. I couldn't say those hollow words to his parents who woke up in the middle of the night without a son; to my friend who got the call he lost a nephew; to his sister who lost a protector; to the 2006 class of South Gwinnett High School who lost a friend.
I saw Ryan Medlock about a year ago at a birthday party he attended with his father. Paul Medlock, my good friend and Ryan's uncle, was given a surprise birthday party by a group of friends and Ryan's attendance was among the many surprises. I can't recall his face or how he walked or what he did. I don't remember if we spoke or shook hands. In truth, Ryan made no impression on me that I can recall except for the events that followed his death at 3:15AM on suburban Annistown Road just miles from where I grew up.
At the funeral I finally got to know Ryan. Between the hymns and prayers there surfaced happier moments and accounts of his personality: he always sat at the back of the bus surrounded by friends on church trips, he exaggerated his prowess at snowboarding and even told his graduating class a couple of weeks earlier that he one day hoped to win the world poker tournament (if only someone would loan him $10,000.) Ryan readily served-up humor as well as kind-hearted warnings to his friends that his beautiful sister was off-limits. Various young people spoke about Ryan's ability to turn strangers into friends and how he encouraged them to try new things they otherwise would not have done. He was an angel who died on earth and fell to heaven.
I have long held the belief that good people die, but
people die young. The stories I heard about Ryan certainly puts him in the category of great people who die young, and there is no more proof needed beyond the words of his Uncle Paul who said, "I hope I can become the person Ryan thought me to be."
As the only member of the family to speak at the funeral, Ryan's father said, "During one of my many pity parties over the last few days I wondered how you would think of me. Would you see me on the street and say 'There's Ryan's dad, poor guy.' I hope not. I hope you will see me on the street and say 'There goes Ryan's dad, what a lucky guy.'"
On the road home after the funeral it finally hit me; I let myself cry for the words I couldn't say, for the family who faces a lifetime of memories as trade for a son, for this unnecessary death and for the awful truth: this could have been my own nephew's funeral who had graduated from high school hours apart from Ryan. In the days that followed the funeral I called my sister and told her of Ryan's death and of the car accident that could have been prevented. I hoped that a short conversation about safety and decisions could prevent a crisis in my own family. She agreed to discuss it with her boys again.
Truly, to inspire people after death is one of the greatest gifts we can give the living. Thank you, Ryan.

They say that only the good die young - I have learned that it doesn't matter what age a person is when they die, if they were a good person, it is ALWAYS too young to lose them. And that's why that phrase is always true.
When my friend Dave was killed in a motorcycle accident this past April, just days before his 33rd birthday, I was just starting to overcome the worst of the grief I felt when my Mother died in February. In addition, I lost a very close friend a few years ago, very unexpectedly. In and among these very close deaths were the ones you "expect" - older relations, those with long-term medical issues. What I have learned through loss is this: We can NEVER fill the holes in our hearts those people we love leave when they die. But with time, we CAN learn not to fall into the holes every time we encounter them, and we CAN build bridges of love and friendship over those gaping holes.
It is not just a cliche: I am so sorry to hear of your loss.

I agree with you Juli, and as I type this I'm preparing for another funeral today. This one is for a friend's mother who was in ill health for a long time and her passing, while extremely sad, is an end to her suffering. I am honored to have known the deceased and I think I'll tell the family that today.

We bring comfort food to the home filled with the "survivors" before and after a funeral because everybody there needs comforting. We hold their hands and say, "I'm so sorry," and "If there's anything I can do....." Nobody can really do anything much to help except be there when needed, but don't forget the comfort food. It helps to comfort them and makes us feel useful.

Mike, this was really beautiful.
I don't believe anyone is really expecting another person to have a magic box filled with phrases and clauses that will take the pain away.
But the stories of a life, the little details - that's what really seem to matter. Too often we don't look away from the mirror long enough to shine it on someone else. So to pay attention, even the slightest bit, to everyone you encounter, is a living tribute, and one that we will all hopefully deserve one day.

This is Ryan's father, Parks. I just wanted to thank you for your words. I tend to agree with you about the never-ending list of condolences and comforts that are spoken during times like these. Yet even as we continue to hear those words that seem so inadequate or inconsequential, your written words have touched me.
Ryan was a "great" person. If there can be a blessing that comes out of all of this pain, it has been the realization that Ryan touched so many lives and in so many positive ways. We have been overwhelmed with the outpouring of love and support we have received from so many people.
When faced with death that hits so suddenly and so close to one's heart, we are forced to define our faith in exact terms, not the generalities that we use to paint over our beliefs. Is this all there is? Are we drifting through this space and time with no rhyme or reason to our existence?
I am comfortable with my faith and secure in my belief that this is NOT all there is. There is a God. And while I may never know the reason that Ryan was taken so young, there is no doubt in my mind that the world is a better place because Ryan was in it. I read a quote this week that has brought me some comfort. "We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience." I look forward to continuing that spiritual experience once my stroll through this world is over.
I thank you once again for your words, for being a friend to my brother and for being there with my family when we said goodbye to my son.

The Rundown (2003) / Action-Comedy
MPAA Rated: PG-13 for violence and some crude dialogue
Running Time: 104 min.
Cast: Dwayne Johnson (aka The Rock), Seann William Scott, Rosario Dawson, Christopher Walken, Ewan Bremmer
Director: Peter Berg
Screenplay: R.J. Stewart, James Vanderbilt
Review published September 28, 2003
Sometimes it's the casting that makes or breaks a movie, and in casting The Rock (The Scorpion King, Be Cool) as the good guy and Christopher Walken (Gigli, Kangaroo Jack) as the bad, you're already halfway successful to making a fun, exciting movie. The Rundown is a pretty dumb film, but knows it is, and director Peter Berg (Very Bad Things) wisely plays almost everything for laughs, making this an escapist romp that's not too dark or violent to enjoy.
The Rundown casts The Rock as a bounty hunter named Beck, sent to the Amazon jungles of Brazil to return his boss' son back to the United States. His intended quarry is Travis (Scott, American Wedding), who has been spending most of his time trying to find a priceless gold statue before the local excavators (run by Walken) can get their hands on it. In the mix is a small but ferocious band of guerrilla fighters, who also want to get their hands of the treasure to fund their war for independence.
The Rundown makes no pretense in being anything other than a deliver-the-goods action vehicle, and plays every scene to deliver action or laughs, and in many cases, both. it isn't the funniest buddy flick you've seen, nor the most stunning in action, but Berg and company mixes the two just right, and the result makes for good, low-brow entertainment. It's all formula stuff, but fueled with high-octane adventure and lots of tongue-in-cheek silliness.
If you're in the mood for a modest, fast-moving actioner, The Rundown should deliver in every area you expect, so long as your expectations don't run too high. Fans of The Rock will be the most pleased, as his intelligence, physique and good-natured charisma gives his character a dimension unseen since Schwarzenegger's heyday. Move over Diesel, Seagal, Van Damme and the rest...it's time to bring the fun back in macho action movies again.

Major: Sociology, English, Philosophy
Favorite Book/Genre: Any book with information concerning history, science, philosophy, art, or the sort containing random morsels of knowledge about the world are going in my bookshelf! I also love to read biographies of historical people (Einstein, Houdini, and Tesla to name a few). I'm especially drawn to classical literature, but my two favorite novels (if I have to pick) are The Book Thief and My Uncle Napoleon. Just don't tell my other books I said that…
About me: My first name is a palindrome, which makes life significantly easier if I'm ever asked to spell it backwards. I was an Irish dancer for 13 years and still practice on my own (because I have yet to give up my dream of one day overthrowing the Lord of the Dance). I'm always running out of bookshelf space. In my life, writing is indistinguishable from breathing. The universe and everything in it is simply one big story. The fact that human beings are essentially made of stars pretty much explains why we are all drawn to some story or another. In the exciting yet daunting saga of life, we are all the main characters and we all hold the pen. Finally, I love words like "rutabaga" and "lethologica" (that last one always gets stuck on the tip of my tongue). I try to work them into sentences whenever possible.

Tabletop Workshop, the company that brought us the Chapel and Cottage terrain homes for wargaming/RPG games, has just released two new pieces in their medieval line: the Merchant's House and Town House. These 28mm terrain pieces are cast in hard plastic and are perfect for many different tabletop games. They're the exact quality you'd expect from Tabletop Workshop, and if you want to see a bit more about their products in detail check out our video review of the Chapel and Cottage.
The buildings assemble nicely, requiring no glue. The roofs can be interchanged between buildings, and they can be removed at any time to allow for interior exploration and more. With these two new products we get a second floor to allow for models to be placed on both levels of the building.
Both the Town House and Merchant's House will run you close to $40, but with what I've seen from the company the price is definitely worth it. While both buildings appear to be the same, the Merchant's House has a bit more flair to it than the Town House, which can be expected. After all, it is a Merchant's House. If you're looking for something to spice up your table, give Tabletop Workshop a look!

Watch Jon Stewart Decode Donald Trump's Remarks About John McCain
After a two-week break from "The Daily Show," Jon Stewart returned last night to begin his final three weeks of hosting the show. And in a nearly 10-minute segment dubbed "Rant-Man," Stewart unpacked Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump's comments over the weekend about John McCain's military service.
After a showing clips of the actual comments, he played follow-up interviews that Trump gave, reversing course. "Does calling someone a war hero count if you're doing it sarcastically?" Stewart asked.

Pisasale's $50k cash pick up questioned by law group
THE Queensland Law Society is concerned about the actions of Brisbane barrister Sam Di Carlo, who says he asked Paul Pisasale while he was Ipswich mayor to collect $50,000 in cash for him interstate, the ABC reports.
Mr Pisasale, who is under investigation after he was detained at Melbourne Airport last month with $50,000 in cash, announced his resignation as mayor due to ill-health on Tuesday.
Late yesterday, Mr Di Carlo came forward with an explanation, saying he asked Mr Pisasale to collect the money on behalf of a client.
>>Pisasale bombshell: 'Money had nothing to do with him'
>>LEAKED EMAILS: Pisasale's message to council staff
>>Entire $50K painstakingly counted in front of Pisasale
>>Police raid council, former Ipswich mayor's home
>>MAYORAL RACE: Possible candidates reveal their intentions
Queensland Law Society president Christine Smyth said it was a very unusual arrangement
"Many people will be wondering what it is that a civic leader is doing collecting $50,000 in cash on behalf of a barrister - it is to say the least very unusual but it is not illegal," she said.
Read more at the ABC.
Mr Pisasale resigned as mayor of Ipswich City Council Tuesday morning, blaming an ongoing battle with multiple sclerosis.
He said an "MS attack" had started to affect him about two weeks ago.
"It's a very tough disease and a lot of people get it.
"I've been able to set an example and in dealing with multiple sclerosis and sometimes you think you're bullet proof."
Speaking at a press conference at St Andrew's Ipswich Private Hospital, he was asked about an investigation by the Crime and Corruption Commission Queensland and smiled.
"The CCC that, as you know over the years I've cooperated wholeheartedly with the CCC and I intend to continue to do that."

LeBron James MVP 2009
LeBron has made me a fan of the NBA again. The Cavs are dismantling the competition thus far in the playoffs. Can anybody stop this guy? My guess is we will find out in the finals when the Cavs meet the Lakers for the dream finals (in my opinion)...I will be at K2 but will be rooting for LeBron. Check out these highlights for his MVP season.

LSU-Alabama rated the third most important game remaining this season
The most pivotal game of the SEC season will take place this weekend in Tuscaloosa, Ala., but it might not be the most important game in the country.
The Sporting News' Bill Bender rated Saturday's clash between LSU-Alabama as the third best game remaining on the college football schedule. Bender placed Michigan State at Ohio State (Nov. 21) and Baylor at TCU (Nov. 27) ahead of the annual SEC showdown.
"The same-old stakes are on the line," Bender wrote. "Alabama needs a win to offset its loss to Ole Miss. The Tigers are the lone unbeaten left in the SEC. We get Derrick Henry and Leonard Fournette on the same field playing smash-mouth football. Who could ask for more?"
Well, SEC fans might ask for a boost in Bender's rankings, but that may be a bit greedy. Bender pretty much summed it up. This weekend's game will likely hold College Football Playoff ramifications and a LSU loss could make it harder for the SEC to be represented in the Playoff.

This is a clever design. I've seen plenty of other types. There's one on my campus with a bowtie. Also, they use hands on the signs here to denote "DO NOT WALK", so people have made various signs by taping over fingers... "rock on", "live long and prosper" from Star Trek or the classic middle finger.

I must have forgotten to put Sigur Rós on the list of my favorite bands but I'm going to do it right now. I recommend the album Ágætis Byrjun, one of my favorites.
Thanks for the support!

I was happy to see another altered walk sign, challenging the male norm. I also saw in Coppenhagen a couple of years ago someone had actually scratched into the black paint on the walking man and given him curves. It made me happy to see us ladies now being represented in the public realm. We need more of it. Lets do a campaign. 50% of these signs to be femaled by 2008!

Now we know how Henry Cavill will look as Superman in the 2016 movie Batman v Superman. We already know how he will look like as Clark Kent. See the photos below.
There is a big, very big movie coming in 2016. It stars not one but two of the most famous super heroes: Batman and Superman. Every new nugget that is revealed from the movie is gobbled up by fans. Earlier this week Henry Cavill revealed how he will look like as Clark Kent in Batman v Superman. He does not wear glasses, which is kind of weird. Now we know how Henry Cavill will look like dressed up as Superman. The movie makers just shared a glossy shot of Henry Cavill's Superman a couple hours ago. See the hi-res photo below.

We already got a look of Batman a couple weeks ago. Man of Steel director Zack Snyder tweeted the first photo of Ben Affleck wearing the Batman costume. See it below.

Hardware Co-ops Help Revitalize Neighborhoods
Logan Circle is a storied neighborhood in Washington, DC enjoying an urban renaissance; and Gina Schaefer, proprietor of the Logan Circle ACE Hardware is part of it. Logan Circle is remarkable for its stock of Victorian row houses, many of which are now on the National Register of Historic Places. However, in the hundred years in between when Logan Circle was established and now, the area fell on hard times and experienced the fallout from the 1968 Washington DC riots. The neighborhood's Victorians got subdivided into apartments and rooming houses, and the area became derelict and unsafe. About a decade ago, people began to see the value in restoring these properties, and Logan Circle has once again become an attractive place to live.
Schaefer was driven to do something for a neighborhood in the process of rebuilding. In the urban core of Washington, DC, hardware stores are few and far between. People in the district's neighborhoods need a hardware store that can cater to the specific needs of hundred-year-old homes and fixer-uppers. Schaefer believed she could make the most of the chance to serve this community by joining the retail hardware co-op ACE Hardware.
Hardware is a very competitive business; the big box chain Home Depot did $68 billion in sales last year alone. Being part of a cooperative makes it possible for small scale, locally-based owners to compete. There are three hardware co-ops headquartered in the United States: ACE Hardware, Do It Best, and True Value Hardware. ACE Hardware is the largest with 4,600 member stores in 60 countries, Do it Best has 4,100 stores in 47 countries, and True Value has 4,700 retails in the U.S. Combined, the three hardware co-ops do $18 billion in annual sales. They are all organized as retail cooperatives that provide members technical assistance and competitive pricing through their mutually-owned warehouses and distribution channels.
"I figured that by joining a co-op I'd get more support getting started," Schaefer said. "I liked the fact that they have regional and district support people who could answer questions." She believes the ideas she's gotten from ACE have helped her grow and be a better retailer.
Another significant benefit of being part of the ACE co-op is being able to network with other hardware store owners in the U.S. and even abroad. Currently, Schaefer is in her second term as an active member of the ACE board of directors and she appreciates the opportunity to continue to learn from and give back to other members of her co-op.
Today, Schaefer operates five neighborhood hardware stores located throughout Washington, DC, and two in Baltimore, MD, all with the same dedication to serve their local communities. Customers like knowing her stores are part of the ACE co-op because many of them specifically want to support co-ops and local enterprises, be it a food co-op, restaurant or an independent bookstore. Schaefer thinks that this approach to supporting the local economy is a strong factor in Logan Circle's revitalization. "It's why we are growing so much," she said.

Who's covering those with pre-existing conditions?
AHCAl passed the House by a count of 217 to 213, along party lines. This bill ensures that those with pre-existing conditions can not be denied coverage, and that our safety net is strengthened and preserved for the most vulnerable. The one exception makes it worse than the first version. That means, in those states, your employer-sponsored health insurance policy could deny coverage for some categories of care , such as mental health care or maternity coverage.

The Collaborative Longitudinal Personality Disorders Study: Reliability of Axis I and II Diagnoses.
Document Type
Publication Date
April 2000
Journal or Book Title
Journal of Personality Disorders
Both the interrater and test-retest reliability of axis I and axis II disorders were assessed using the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis I Disorders (SCID-I) and the Diagnostic Interview for DSM-IV Personality Disorders (DIPD-IV). Fair-good median interrater K (.40-.75) were found for all axis II disorders diagnosed five times or more, except antisocial personality disorder (1.0). All of the test-retest K for axis II disorders, except for narcissistic personality disorder (1.0) and paranoid personality disorder (.39), were also found to be fair-good. Interrater and test-retest dimensional reliability figures for axis II were generally higher than those for their categorical counterparts; most were in the excellent range (>.75). In terms of axis I, excellent median interrater K were found for six of the 10 disorders diagnosed five times or more, whereas fair-good median interrater K were found for the other four axis I disorders. In general, test-retest reliability figures for axis I disorders were somewhat lower than the interrater reliability figures. Three test-retest K were in the excellent range, six were in the fair-good range, and one (for dysthymia) was in the poor range (.35). Taken together, the results of this study suggest that both axis I and axis II disorders can be diagnosed reliably when using appropriate semistructured interviews. They also suggest that the reliability of axis II disorders is roughly equivalent to that reliability found for most axis I disorders.

How To Price Your Home Right
How do you sell your house for what it's worth without feeling ripped off? Also, you don't want to get too ambitious with the pricing of your house or it so t sell.
Here are a few tips
1. Price comparisons
Take a look at how much the houses in your neighborhood have sold for and use that as a benchmark. A good tool to use is Lightstone
2. Consider your renovation
Chances are you found tour house in a rut compared to how it looks today. So if you have spent on renovating the house, it helps to keep receipts and documentation of such work done, to further support your case.
3. Get a bank evaluator
Get a professional to come and evaluate your house for you. Some evaluators come at no charge or charge against your agent. So be sure to enquire with your estate agent.
4. Think like a buyer
Remember, what the home means to you doesn't equate to what the buyer will think of it. So think of how a buyer would look at your house in comparison to the other houses in the neighborhood. So remember to think like a buyer when pricing your home.
5. Less is sometimes more.
One of the best ways to sweeten the deal is by underpricing your home. This is a strategy in marketing. When you have a lot of people offering you a deal for your unsurprised home, chances are you will go with the highest bidder anyway.

WESTPORT, Conn. – Staples High's boys basketball team rallied from behind several times in the final quarter Tuesday against Norwalk High. But unfortunately for the Wreckers, the Bears had one more final push.
Norwalk outscored Staples, 17-8, in overtime Tuesday to earn a 84-75 victory in a Fairfield County Interscholastic Athletic Conference game. Peter Rankowitz scored 24 points and James Frusciante scored 21 to lead the Wreckers. Jabari Dear scored a career-high 28 to lead Norwalk.
Staples tied the game at 70 with 3:10 left in overtime on a basket by Ross Whalen (15 points). After a Norwalk miss, Staples had a chance to take the lead, but Dear blocked a shot, then raced upcourt and hit a three-pointer. That ignited a 7-0 Norwalk run that put the game away for good.
Staples forced overtime on a 22-foot three-pointer by Rankowitz with a second remaining. Staples led 64-63 with 54 seconds to play after a basket by Frusciante. But Norwalk hit four free throws to build a 67-64 lead with 18.6 seconds remaining and set the stage for Rankowtiz's dramatic shot.
The game featured some wild momentum swings. The Bears led 27-19 midway through the second quarter before the Wreckers clawed back to within 29-26 at halftime. Staples went on a 16-4 run to open up a 42-33 lead midway through the third quarter. Norwalk rallied for a 48-46 lead entering the final period, and the teams stayed within four points in the final eight minutes.
Staples hosts Stamford on Friday and plays during the holiday break at the LaVista Tournament on Thursday and Saturday. The Wreckers meet New Canaan in the first round.

"Wit and Wisdom from Windows for Dummies!"
Listen to Briefing from 06/02/06 & Receive Handout
According to Andy Rathbone, he began "fiddling around with computers" in the early eighties as a Comparative Literature major at San Diego State University. Because of all the writing involved, he bought a Kaypro 2X computer and a WordStar word processing program. When the professor asked for an eight-page term paper and he could only muster up six, he subtly adjusted the margins of his word processor, squeezing the words into eight pages.
After graduating, Andy began freelancing for a local computer magazine, which had trouble finding writers because most computer "techies" wrote for other "techies" to read, not for beginners. Computer manuals had the same problem; they were aimed at programmers, not beginning users. Since Andy is a writer, not a programmer, he writes books aimed at the general public.
Andy wrote Windows For Dummies in 1992, and as Windows grew more popular, more people began to find his books helpful. Almost fifteen years after Windows For Dummies, first hit the shelves, Andy has more than 15 million books in print. His books have been on many bestseller lists, including the New York Times.

Is this the end of gay bars in San Francisco?
A few years ago, San Francisco Travel ran a tourism campaign with the tagline "San Francisco's gay district is called 'San Francisco.'"
The campaign was a result of research conducted by SA-5, a branding agency now known as Teak. Their research concluded that San Francisco was consistently identified as a top gay-friendly destination for LGBT travelers (no surprise). But SA-5 also learned in their research that LGBT visitors were interested in seeing more of San Francisco than just the Castro (again, no surprise). The ad ran from 2012 to 2013 in both digital and print format in San Diego, Los Angeles, Seattle, Portland, and Phoenix.
"The campaign [was] built around attracting new LGBT visitors and giving those visitors that have been to San Francisco a reason to come back," writes Lynn Bruni, vice president of marketing relations at San Francisco Travel. The idea, in other words, was to show a welcoming version of the city that extended beyond any one neighborhood to encompass the whole 7X7 grid.
So far as travel advertising goes, I like it. Granted, I'm biased since I live in the Bay. But I like the overall spirit of this campaign, especially since the rest of the nation has gradually become more welcoming to queer folk. Along with that, the city, and the Castro, have become a bit more dilute.
Only one lesbian bar remains open in San Francisco with the closing of The Lex in 2015. The Stud was nearly threatened with closure in 2016, though a devoted clientele rallied and now keeps it open as a co-op. Twin Peaks Tavern and Lookout both remain strong, the former thanks to city designation as a historic landmark, the latter for its location and amazing balcony views. But the majority of expressly gay-related bars and businesses are still focused around the Castro, and the Castro is changing.
The demographics of the Castro skew older, with a median age of 40 compared to 38 for the city as a whole. And with a median rent that's 21% higher than other parts of San Francisco, the neighborhood can be a financially forbidding place for younger people to move. Of course, folks still do move to the Castro, and many expressly come to San Francisco for that reason, but the proportion of gay to straight residents has changed drastically in recent years. While 73% of the Castro still identifies as LGBT, only slightly more than half—55%—of all newcomers would identify themselves likewise.
Sexual orientation is a notoriously hard thing to poll for, however. So there is the possibility that the figures are incorrect simply because many people are unwilling to provide that information. It's also worth noting that younger LGBT people are reluctant to engage in single issue identity. It's more common, according to Esther D. Rothblum, PhD, a professor of psychology at the University of Vermont, for younger LGBT people to "express and accept fluid gender and sexual identities." And in my experience, gay millennials aren't as interested in going to places that have been made expressly for gays as they are interested in going to the same places as everyone else.
Personally, I like that I can meet for a date anywhere in the city without feeling uncomfortable. It's an inconvenience to travel the hour it takes to get to the Castro when all I want is to sit for a beer and a chat. I know plenty of places around the city, and in the East Bay too, that are easier to get to and just as welcoming without being expressly for gay customers. And the reverse is also true, as Castro venues like Churchill and Blackbird have done well by appealing to a more mixed crowd.
And both those developments—straight bars welcoming gays and vice-versa—are positive, because it's just not likely we're going to see very many new gay venues open up. (Though even as the Stud Bar was threatened with closure in SF, Oakland got itself a shiny new watering hole.)
Of course, something is being lost, and not everyone views this as a positive. Cleve Jones had mentioned a contrary opinion in an article in The Guardian:
"The tech bros had taken over The Mix. They commanded the pool table and the patio. These big, loud, butch guys. It was scary," he said. "I'm not heterophobic, but I don't want to go to a gay bar and buy some guy a drink and have him smirk and tell me he's straight. They can go anywhere. We can't."
For my part, I can semi-sympathize. It's always a little disorienting when a familiar watering hole changes without one's consent. And I'm pretty terrified of big, loud, butch guys myself. But my positions are almost entirely the reverse of Jones (and as a side note Jones presumes those 'tech bros' were straight, and by extension that tech bros as a whole can't be gay, and if that were true then just how the hell would we have gotten Grindr?).
I have to disagree with Jones because he can go anywhere, and so can I, and not just because either of us could pass for straight. Society has just become more accepting. And to argue from the other side of the coin, if as gays we want equality and acceptance for ourselves, then part of that equality includes allowing others into our spaces without either judgment or disapproval for their own lifestyles.
California and San Francisco both pride themselves on the diversity of the people who make up this state and city. While we have sometimes failed to be a place of welcome for all people, inclusion has always been our ideal, even when we have not met it. It might be comfortable to be in a room or a neighborhood built around an identity, where everyone thinks and acts exactly as we do, but it doesn't do much to promote equality for ourselves or anyone else to set up gatekeepers to say who gets to go where.
For myself, I go to all the neighborhoods, and all the bars. And all the bars I go to are just the regular kind. I wouldn't call any of them straight exactly, they just give precisely zero f*cks about what kind of person I like to f*ck. And that's a lot more comforting to me as a patron, knowing that I don't have to flash my gay card just to get service. I would call that a safe space. The gay bar I go to is called 'a bar.'

International Marathon of Marrakech: This desert marathon starts at 8 a.m. and takes place in January, when the average temperature in Marrakech is 13°C. Run through the city's palm-lined streets, past its iconic pink buildings and through two of its famed gardens: Agdal, the walled retreat, and Menara, a former olive grove-turned-oasis built in 1147.
For post-race relaxation: Book a hammam scrub at the luxe La Villa des Orangers, followed by a standout dinner. The menu changes seasonally, but past favourites include the tangia, a rustic rabbit stew cooked in a terracotta urn or steamed sea bass with thyme and preserved lemon, cauliflower with Sichuan pepper and shellfish butter.6, rue Sidi Mimoun, Marrakech, 212-524-384638, villadesorangers.com
Tokyo Marathon: One of the largest races in Asia and one of the six Abbott World Marathon Majors, Tokyo's annual marathon is a bucket-list-worthy race. In 2017, over 300,000 people applied for the 36,000 spots.
For a fast-food fix: Head to Blacows, a diner-inspired burger joint in the city's Shibuya neighbourhood, for a patty made with 100-percent Black Wagyu beef.1F, 2-11-9 Ebisunishi, Shibuya 150-0021, Tokyo, 81-3-3477-2914, kuroge-wagyu.com
The Kaiser Permanente Napa Valley Marathon: Kick off your Napa Valley getaway by running past a number of vineyards, including Beringer Vineyards and Opus One Winery. First-time marathoners will appreciate the relatively flat course, while runners of all levels will enjoy scenic views of grapevines and rolling countryside.
For a farm-fresh pick-me-up: Refuel at the nearby Bruschetteria Food Truck where executive chef John McConnell tops toasted sourdough with porchetta or ingredients from the Clif Family farm. You can usually spot the truck parked by Velo Vino, the Clif Family Winery's bicycle-themed tasting room.709 Main St., St. Helena, 707-968-0625, cliffamily.com
Virgin Money London Marathon: Another of the marathon world's big six, this race boasts a challenging route, but that's not its only claim to fame. During the 2016 marathon, 31 Guinness World Records were broken, including the fastest marathon completed in a film character costume, the fastest marathon completed in an animal costume and the fastest marathon completed in a four-person costume. (The team dressed up as a fire engine.) The 2018 race is already breaking records; 386,050 applied for a spot at the race, the highest number of applicants for any marathon in the world.
For post-race recovery: The ESPA Spa at the Corinthia Hotel London is spread across four floors. Head to the Thermal Floor, which features saunas, steam rooms, an ice fountain, swimming and vitality pools and special sleep pods.Whitehall Place, London, 44-20-7930-8181, corinthia.com
Scotiabank Ottawa Marathon: Ottawa's annual marathon is known as one of Canada's fastest, thanks to its relatively flat elevation. A circuit race, it's one of Canada's largest Boston qualifiers, and runners pass by some of the city's top highlights, including 24 Sussex Drive, Parliament Hill and the National Gallery of Canada.
For pre-race carbo loading: Head to Supply and Demand, the black-and-white bistro in Wellington West, for fresh pasta. The menu changes seasonally but you can expect such creative combinations as squid ink rigatoni with tuna and prosciuotto meatballs or ricotta agnolotti with ramps, morels and fiddleheads.1335 Wellington St. W., Ottawa, 613-680-2949, supplyanddemandfoods.ca
Midnight Sun Marathon: One of the world's northernmost marathons, this Norwegian race takes place at the end of spring, when the sun doesn't set in Tromsø, and kicks off at midnight. Personal bests might be hard to achieve – in addition to taking place in the middle of the night, there are some steep hills to scale – but the experience is worth it.
For an ice-cold beer: You may have to wait a few hours for it to open, but there's no better way to celebrate than by cracking open a cold one at Ølhallen, the city's beer hall.Storgata 4, Tromsø, Norway, 47-77-62-45-80, mack.no
Australian Outback Marathon: For a truly spectacular running holiday, consider this Uluru adventure race in the heart of the Australian outback. Varied terrain, including hard-packed earth trails, soft sand and asphalt roads, make this a challenging race, but it's more about the experience than the results. Enjoy spectacular views of Uluru and Kata Tjuta, sandstone monoliths that are sacred to Australia's aboriginal people.
For your post-race protein fix: Head to Pioneer BBQ and Bar, a casual DIY barbecue restaurant at nearby Ayers Rock Resort. Take your grill game to the next level, and cook your own steaks, kangaroo, barramundi and emu sausages.Outback Pioneer Hotel Ayers Rock Resort, Yulara, Australia, 61-2-8296-8010, ayersrockresort.com.au
Lululemon SeaWheeze Half Marathon: Winding along the Vancouver waterfront, this half-marathon is more than a run, with pre- and post-run festivities spanning two days. Get to know fellow competitors at the race package pickup party, which includes a yoga session at the Vancouver Convention Centre. After the race, head to the SeaWheeze Sunset Festival in Stanley Park, an official after-party featuring group yoga, live music and provisions from local businesses.
For a bucket-list-worthy dinner: Celebrate your accomplishment at Kissa Tanto, named Canada's Best New Restaurant in 2016 by Air Canada enRoute. Dig into the tajarin, a thin, rich egg noodle similar to tagliatelle that comes topped with butter, roasted mushrooms and miso-cured yolk.263 E. Pender St., Vancouver, 778-379-8078, kissatanto.com
The Kauai Marathon: Hills, heat and humidity – the conditions at this Hawaii marathon make it gruelling. The starting gun goes off at 6 a.m. to minimize the tropical weather's impact, and the gorgeous route offers plenty of distractions.
For the best pre-race sleep: Book a room at the luxe St. Regis Princeville, where the beds are so comfortable, you can buy the exclusive Simmons-designed mattresses, bedding and pillows for hotel-quality sleep at home.5520 Ka Haku Rd., Princeville, Hawaii, 808-826-9644, stregisprinceville.com
Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon: Toronto hosts several marathons, but this one is the fastest in Canada and second fastest in North America – an ideal race for setting personal bests. Its 25,000 yearly participants collectively raise millions for local charities.
For a victory cocktail: Head to the Gaudí-inspired Bar Raval to toast your achievement with artisanal cocktails. Try the refreshing Jacques Fresco (Tio Pepe Fino, Guerra Blanco, lime, frankincense, cava and mint) or the Doctor's Order (Bulleit, Byrrh, tawny port, lemon, deathwish syrup, Angostura and Peychaud's). Named one of Canada's Best New Restaurants in 2015 by Air Canada enRoute.505 College St., Toronto, thisisbarraval.com
Athens Marathon: This race begins in Marathon and ends at Athens' Panathenaic Stadium, the world's only white marble stadium and the setting of athletic competitions in ancient Greece. It's fitting that the modern version of the original marathon is considered one of the most difficult to run, thanks to its elevation.
For a hotel near the finish line: Just a 12-minute walk from the finish line, AthensWas is a chic and minimalist boutique hotel with mod furnishings, beautiful views and bathrooms stocked with luxe Korres toiletries.Dionysiou Areopagitou 5, Athens, 30-21-0924-9954, athenswas.gr
Intertrust Cayman Islands Marathon: Run along George Town's waterfront through South Sound, an exclusive neighbourhood populated with multimillion-dollar homes, and through the island's financial district before closing the loop on this fast, flat race.
For the perfect brunch: This Caribbean marathon kicks off at 5 a.m., so brunch is the best way to celebrate post-race. Try the buffet at the Caribbean Club's Luca, where you can treat yourself to eggs Benny, fresh seafood, a custom pasta dish and free prosecco refills.871 W. Bay Rd., Canal Point Dr., Seven Mile Beach, Cayman Islands, 345-623-4550, caribclub.com

Portales Divorce Help New Mexico 88130
Let's face it, everyone makes mistakes, however, when it comes to divorce proceedings, it is important that you don't make unnecessary mistakes that could hurt you in court. Although every case if different, here are a few things to keep in mind as you do your best to have an easy and drama free divorce.
Because you're a woman, do you automatically assume that you'll get custody of your children? Although judges do tend to rule in favor of women when it comes to the issue of custody, women don't always have the upper hand. If you are feeling that a judge will rule in your favor simply because of your sex, don't get overly confident. Instead, take it one day at a time, and be on your best behavior.
One of the biggest mistakes that women who have kids making during the divorce process is misusing fund that are intended for child support. Many times when couples are separated, before the divorce is final, some women collect child support from their ex's. However, it is important that you always use the money to support your children directly. If you use and abuse the funds, then your ex will be able to use this against you in court proceedings. Not only is this type of tactic unfair to your children, it is also dishonest. In order to protect yourself, keep track of how much your ex pays for child support, and keep track of exactly how much you spend.
When you think of just what you want to obtain from the divorce, do you promptly assume that taking your home will be the most effective option? While your home is terrific since it permits you to belong to live, as well as it gives security for your children, many females could not afford to soak up the house settlements. Because of that the real estate market isn't really always stable, hoping that you could promptly turn your home and also earn a profit is a misconception. It is essential to reach a resolution that will help you to enhance your earnings, even if it means relocating into a smaller apartment while you create a strategy. Although you may not be able to receive you as well as your children promptly, it is important that you do not waste your time awaiting your ex-spouse to give whatever. Your ex-spouse isn't required in order to help you keep your lifestyle, so as opposed to depending upon him, you need to enter an independent mindset. If you have to downsize and also give up a few things, do not hesitate of change. You and your children will be OKAY also if your ex-spouse is no longer in the picture.
Several females are worried that due to their separation, they will never ever be happy once again, nonetheless, it is important to bear in mind that individuals who get divorced are not cursed with a never-find-love-again spell. When you are frequently fretting that your opportunity for joy has actually come and gone, you will have a tough time concentrating on the vital points and individuals in your life.Lawyer For Divorce | Custody Laws

ClimMani > Working Groups > Working group 4
Working group 4
Integrated ecosystem experimentation and modelling
The objective of WG4 will be to outline strategies to improve integration between ecosystem experiments and dynamic ecosystem modelling.
A subtask will analyse how well current ecosystem models can address climate extremes such as long-term droughts, heat waves, flooding or drought promoted fires and propose needed improvements. This will focus on both the short term immediate impacts of the extreme events as well as the long term recovery after such events.
A second subtask will focus on improved integration of experiments and modelling and propose best practice guidelines for such integration, underlined by examples.
WG4 will organise workshops related to both dimensions aiming to produce a position paper for each dimension. WG4 will further organise a summer school directed to integrating models and experiments along the full chain from design over experimentation and results to up scaling. WG4 will also offer training sites as part of the short term mission program.

Having Green Water Issues... We Can Help !
The #1 Problem We Service Is Pond Algae, "The Good, Bad, & The Ugly "
Are you struggling keeping string algae under control in your Spotsylvania or Stafford County area pond, or worse yet cannot seem to get your pond water clear and healthy?

Maybe you are a very busy individual who travels often in your profession, or simply want your water feature professionally maintained so all you have to do is relax and enjoy your Pond, Fish and waterfalls.

While pond "string algae" is the sign of a healthy ecosystem, pond algae grows primarily when one or more of the ponds natural balances is out of whack. Pond string algae control traditionally involves chemicals and algaecides added to control natural pond algae. While this method of controlling algae is a solution and works well, missing one treatment or dosage can throw your pond balance off, and it may take several days and dosages to get back under control.

I have just found out one thing either disturbing or great depending on how you like it. Point is Mario and Sonic are returning for yet another Olympic adventure only this time it's the Winter Olympics and it takes place in Vancouver.
I for one liked Mario and Sonic at he Olympic Games,but it was albeit shallow so I hope this one will be a bit deeper and maybe some more characters would be nice [Like Diddy Kong or Fang the Sniper]
Obviously the game is slated for 2010 to go for the 2010 Winter Olympics

Menu Development
Have you ever sat down at a restaurant and opened up the menu only to find that your choices seem endless? Having too many options is often overwhelming. Even the most experienced Chef cannot possibly be well versed in all areas. The odds that your kitchen staff can serve world-class Sushi and BBQ up some killer ribs are slim, and your guests know this. A menu with too many items sends the message to your patrons that your establishment doesn't excel in any one item, rather, it offers an array of mediocre items.
People like options and you should certainly give them some. Try limiting your menu to just a handful of items that your restaurant can knock out of the park. Doing this has several advantages that might surprise you. It cuts inventory costs and allows reallocation of those funds towards higher grade ingredients, thus increasing the overall quality of your product. Offering less menu choices also creates less memorization for your wait staff; decreasing the odds of mistakes which results in happy customers. Perhaps the most positive change is that this will brand your restaurant. You will now be forever known for the amazing niche items prepared unique to your restaurant. This will attract the people whom are truly interested in what you have to offer, and likely result in a positive reputation amongst your community. Another positive is that you can bump of the price of your dishes with confidence, generating more profit. Remember this: less is more.
The menu is the first encounter a guest has with a restaurant. Contact TRG Restaurant Consulting, to learn more about our menu development services and how we can help to ensure that all the dishes on your menu not only stand out for their own merits, but also work together to form a cohesive whole.
