If you have the responsibility and maturity to enrol for the military which effects your health well-being much more than alcohol, then why should you not be able to make the conscious decision of whether you should be drinking alcohol or not. By the age of 18 people should have the right to make their own decisions.
If you have the responsibility and maturity to enrol for the military which effects your health well-being much more than alcohol, then why should you not be able to make the conscious decision of whether you should be drinking alcohol or not. By the age of 18 people should have the right to make their own decisions.
Yes, Most people like to drink beer. Beer would raise our economy . Cigarettes are legal in the age of 18 and that is worse than drinking. Yes it might Not Be god for us, but is someones choice to drink beer. Not anyone else choice. His Choice. Drinking age should be lowered
At eighteen years old, you are an ADULT. You can live on your own, sign your own paperwork. You can have kids and you can be married by eighteen and yet you can't go home or to the bar and buy a beer? Something is not right there. While I understand that Canada and the US are different countries, I'm Canadian and in Alberta, the drinking age is eighteen and it works. The government gives us all the responsibilities to upkeep and yet in the states you are not deemed able to have a beer or a glass of wine until you're twenty one? There's something seriously wrong with that.
I feel 18 should be the legal age of drinking because the government clearly sees an 18 year old as an adult capabale of making his or her own decision. They are capable of being tried as an adult in our court system, They're capable of dying for our country, but not capable to buy a beer? It doesn't make sense
People are legal adults at age 18. You are allowed to marry, sign a contract, be drafted into the military, smoke (which is more health hazardous than drinking), vote, work almost any job, and drive (which is set at an earlier age) at that age. So why not be allowed to drink.
The physical development of their minds and bodies should not be relevant. Females mature faster than males, so if that was the case than the minimum drinking age for females should lower than for males. But that would be discriminatory by sex, so we can not do that.
In most other countries it is 18, and it is not as much of a problem. More laws only create more crime.
The National Minimum Drinking Age Act of 1984 should be repealed, as it is more or less a violation of states' rights. The Federal Government also should not have the power to cut funding, or penalize in any way, states that have the minimum legal drinking age lower than 21.
MLDA at 21 has robbed people of their own responsibilities. It has caused more harm than good.
The drinking age has resulted in underage humans seeing alcohol consumption as a means of rebellion. The age is a prime contributor to alcoholism and alcohol consumption among underage humans. The age has also made it look like a "forbidden fruit" to humans who become of age. It results in excessive and potentially fatal consumption of alcohol among humans who become of age.
18 should not be the legal age for drinking. It is bad enough that at the age it is set at, all kinds of accidents and deaths occur. I honestly believe that drinking should be outlawed. Many innocent people are killed all the time by inebriated drivers. Unfortunately, selling alcohol makes too much money for it to ever be outlawed again. I believe 18 as a drinking age would be disastrous if it were enforced again.
No, eighteen should not be the legal age for drinking. Drinking is a huge problem in our country that not even those of age can handle. Letting even younger people have alcohol is just asking for trouble. There is no reason to lower the drinking age, it's very dangerous. The younger adults can wait.
Eighteen should not be the legal drinking age. States are allowed to set the drinking age to eighteen but if they did so they would lose federal funding for roads. Statistics show that when eighteen was the legal drinking age the number of driving accidents and fatalities were much higher.

Bali has been having a lot of rainstorms and that really sucks, I can't wait for the weather to switch into Summer. Speaking of beaches, here's a brand new tote that you can carry with you whenever you want to enjoy the sun, sand and breezes. Exclusively created by Lanvin, it is made of taupe straw with interwoven tulle and chain link. It's a love at first sight for me, I hope it is to you, too! US$1,250.

Alaska Airlines brought its operations back to normal late Monday after a nightmare of a day for many of its passengers. A fiber-optic shutdown early Monday crashed Alaska's ticketing system, resulting in delays across the airline's 64-airport network, including Boise.
Scores of Boise passengers were affected when they saw their flights in and/or out of Seattle, Portland and Sacramento were canceled.
The Associated Press reports that Alaska employees at Seattle's Sea-Tac Airport ended up sticking handwritten flight numbers to computer monitors and issuing passengers manual tickets. All passengers who saw their travel plans evaporate were told they could rebook without a rescheduling fee.
A spokeswoman for Sprint, the provider of Alaska's fiber-optic network, said the problems were a combination of two cut cables, one between Chicago and Milwaukee and another between Portland and Seattle.
Alaska Airlines is the seventh-largest U.S. airline based on passenger traffic.

|Brief Activity Description
|As part of this first-year Composition course, students will participate in a large Service Learning Project on Santa Rosa Island. The students are from across various disciplines and will come together to work on various projects from invasive species removal, to facility improvement, to painting and coloring our research site, to conducting beach clean ups. The students will be asked to research and reflect on their service learning experience and how it has aided their educational experience at this university. The project requires students to stay on Santa Rosa Island for three days to complete their service learning projects and then turn in a portfolio in which their assess and reflect on their critical learning during the project. The goal is to give students "real world" experience engaging with their community in a project that services the local community and their university. The educational objectives of the course are to teach students transferable writing skills -- evidence discovery, claim support, argument response, and situation-specific reading and writing -- and their applications to academic debate, public decision making, and written argument. This course specifically targets these skills through a massive service learning component. Because these students are from different disciplines, focusing the service learning on Santa Rosa Island will give each student the opportunity to pick a project relevant to their major and future leadership plans.
|Learning Outcomes and Relation to IRA to Course Offerings
|English 106 - Composition & Rhetoric II - Service Learning
The whole course is based on the service learning project on Santa Rosa Island. For the first half of the semester, students will be researching and doing writing and group work about Santa Rosa Island. They will participate in smaller service learning opportunities on campus to get them ready for their large service project. They will also fill out pre-project reflections on how they believe the service learning project will go and what they will learn. During Week 8 of the semester, October 3-5, the students and I will go out to Santa Rosa Island to complete the service learning project. During the project, they will be filling out reflections and documenting their experiences in both written and audio visual formats. For the second half of the semester, the students will be working on synthesizing their reflection and research about the service learning project and developing academic arguments around the benefits of service learning, the benefits of the research station on Santa Rosa Island, and their experiences in a higher education service learning course. These papers will then be assessed in a portfolio reading by other Composition faculty. The activity that I'm requesting funding for is the foundation of this course, the students' research, and their reflections.
|Description of Assessment Process
|We have various assessment for this course and project. Students will fill out an "entering" survey about what they expect from the project/course and then an "exit" survey where they assess their actual educational experience during the project. They will then be assessing the project itself in their research/reflection essays for the course. Lastly, these essays will be assessed by a committee of Composition instructors during our portfolio reading at the end of the semester. For this portfolio assessment, we use a 6-point rubric developed by the Composition faculty. The students will also work on presentations to give to the Center for Community Engagement about the value of their experience. Assessment is naturally built into this course, with students working on discussion boards via blackboard with one another, keeping a field journal during their project, and being asked to compose essays detailing their experiences.
|Activity Budget

|Course Syllabus
|CIA Certification
|Other Sources of Funding
|The Center for Community Engagement offers up to $500 for service learning courses, but those applications are not accepted until the current semester of the service learning course. I will be applying for this funding in the fall, but it is not guaranteed.
|Target Audience/Student Marketing
|My intended audience is first-year students entering the university. The English 106 course is a first-year writing course for all disciplines. I intend to market this to my students at the various Orientations over the summer. Our Composition faculty have a set amount of time to talk with students at each Orientation about our Composition Program and the Direceted Self Placement that we implement. During this session, I will discuss the English 106- Service Learning option to recruit students who are passionate about integrating service learning into their higher education experience.
|Bring Benefit to Campus
|My students, through their written work, will be able to give Cause Hanna, the Santa Rosa Research Station Manager, assessment of and a student perspective of the research station and its possible uses in the future. Because our presence on Santa Rosa is so new, getting students' perspectives on their experiences there and what they envision for that station in the future is invaluable information. Also, the students having a good experience out on the island will help promote even further a culture of service learning that our campus is trying to cultivate by preparing our students to be socially aware, community engaged citizens with outstanding critical thinking skills. We will also be able to present our experience at the Center for Community Engagement annual Celebration of Service.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A few weeks ago, many Chiefs fans were lobbying to join the Andrew Luck sweepstakes.
Kansas City had lost three straight games, two in historically bad fashion, not to mention the four preseason games before that. The Chiefs had endured a slew of season-ending injuries to some of their best players, and fans were pining for the superstar quarterback from Stanford widely expected to be the first overall pick in the NFL draft.
Fast forward to the present and the "Suck for Luck" crusade is a thing of the past. Now, fans are embracing a "Play for Playoffs" movement that certainly sits better with the Chiefs' players.
"The great part about what this team has done is we just continue to grind and take it one game at a time," quarterback Matt Cassel said. "You can see us get better from the start of the season till now. Hopefully we'll just continue to make progress. We know it's a one-game season every week."
The cynics will point to the teams Kansas City has beaten and argue little has changed.
Minnesota and Indianapolis are combined 1-13 this season, and the Colts were routed 62-7 by New Orleans on Sunday night. The Chiefs' 28-0 victory over Oakland was tempered by the fact the Raiders couldn't decide whether to play Kyle Boller or newly acquired Carson Palmer at quarterback.
It turned out neither option was very good.
Both of them threw three interceptions, and the six total were one shy of the Chiefs' franchise single-game record. Two of them were returned for touchdowns.
So it's not as if Kansas City has recovered from getting shellacked by Buffalo and Detroit to start the season, and losing a competitive game at San Diego, by beating anybody noteworthy.
But they've still won three straight games, and that's nothing to sneeze at in the NFL.
"We don't have too many pretty games," cornerback Brandon Carr said, "but as long as we come away with the victory that's all that matters. We're definitely making progress."
That part is indisputable.
The Chiefs have gone from league-wide laughingstock after the first two weeks to a trendy team on the rise, one that can move into a three-way tie for first place in the AFC West with a victory over the Chargers at Arrowhead Stadium on Monday night. Kansas City would have a game in hand with the win over Oakland and a split of the season series against San Diego.
Kansas City's win over the Raiders on Sunday was the first time it had pitched a road shutout in the 52-year history of the series. It was also the Chiefs' first road shutout since beating San Diego on Nov. 4, 1973, and the first shutout overall since beating San Francisco on Oct. 1, 2006.
"We got a division win against a team that won all their division games last year, so that's big in itself," said coach Todd Haley, who is refusing to shave his scruffy beard until his team loses.
Haley blames his father, longtime Steelers executive Dick Haley, for the superstitious streak that runs through him. The younger Haley remembers driving to games at Three Rivers Stadium as a kid and having to sit in the same car seat until Pittsburgh lost a game.
Haley sheepishly admitted to passing along his superstitious nature to his own kids, too. But so long as the Chiefs keep winning, it's hard to believe anybody will complain.
Especially given what's coming up on the schedule.
After playing the Chargers on Monday night, Kansas City faces the winless Dolphins and struggling Broncos at home. Then comes a five-game meat grinder: at New England, Pittsburgh at home, and road games against Chicago and the Jets before hosting the Super Bowl champion Green Bay Packers.
There's a good chance that the wide-open AFC West won't be decided until the final two weeks of the regular season, when the Chiefs get division foes Oakland and Denver for the second time.
"We just have to keep believing," cornerback Brandon Flowers said. "We never bowed our head and thought the season was done like some people did. We just knew if we kept pushing, things would turn around for us. It's going to be a great showdown Monday night."

I just want to take this time and thank you for your friendship this year. It is hard coming into a new situation with not knowing anyone, but meeting you guys was the best thing for me. We've had some great memories and stories throughout the year. Between our never ending games of Mad-Gab, to our wonderful trips to random places and our lovely nighttime basketball games, the memories grow. Just like the muscles in me because of our 3 hour long volleyball games.
You have shown me who I really am and let me be that person that I never was before. You have shown me how to really appreciate things and not to worry about stupid stuff like I use to. Even though we may be all going to main campus next year, it is still going to be hard to keep in touch seeing as we are all living in separate places. But I just wanted to let you know that if you ever need anything I will be here.
You all have made my freshman year at OSU good one. I was so nervous coming into this year because I wanted to be on main campus with people I knew. But now I wouldn't trade this year for anything. We all have been through the boredom together and in the end, it wasn't so bad. Even though I'm ready for summer, it saddens me to have to say goodbye knowing that things won't be the exact same next year. I know that we will stay friends but I hate good-byes. So here's my good-bye, thank you for the wonderful memories, the friendships and letting me be me. If by chance we don't meet up again, remember what we had here and know I'll always be there for you.
Your friend,

I looked at your first blog you posted for class and then scanned through the rest of them up too your most resent one. You have improved a lot since we started blogging. I like reading what you blog about because I can relate to how you feel about Ohio State. In every blog, you express how you feel about the college life especially here at OSU. I of course can relate to how you feel and what experiences you've gone through because I have gone through most of them with you!! I like how much you love OSU and how you express how much you enjoy the school and all the activities that come with it. The blogs I enjoyed reading the most were the ones about football games or you spending time with your friends because when people read those post's they will be able to tell how much you enjoy both aspects of college. Over all I really liked your blog I think you did a nice job of putting everything together. It made for some interesting reading and was nice to see how much you have enjoyed OSU.

Fieldhouse Lane, Durham, DH1£775,000 Offers in the Region of 4 Bedroom House
Dating back to at least the early 1700's, Springwell Cottage was originally a stone built property. A brick front was put in place sometime after 1750 in keeping with the fashion of the day and this has been re-instated by the current owners. Extensive renovation work revealed that for a short period of time the cottage was occupied by two families but for most of its history it has been in single occupation.
Springwell Cottage was originally a farm before becoming the home of the owner of the toll road out of Durham. The property has been completely updated and extended by the current owners to offer an attractive and substantial family home. There are five principal reception rooms on the ground floor with the benefit of a 25ft kitchen/living room, utility room and shower room. To the first floor there are four bedrooms, two sharing a 'Jack and Jill' shower room, and a family bathroom. Externally, situated within the city, the property still benefits from a private garden.
Fieldhouse Lane is conveniently situated within the well established North End area of Durham City which has for many years proved to be extremely popular in demand. It is within walking distance of the immediate City Centre with its comprehensive range of shopping and recreational facilities and amenities, as well as the bus and railway stations. North End is also situated within walking distance of County Hall, The Land Registry, The University Hospital, as well as the well respected Durham Johnston School and St Leonards Roman Catholic School. It is conveniently situated for commuting purposes lying close to the A(167) Highway which provides good road links to both North and South.

Todd Kessler found his way onto NBC's singing competition "The Voice" after playing the Chicago music scene for a few years with his band, The New Folk. RedEye spoke with Kessler, 30, regarding his song choice for his recent blind audition, what it's like having Cee-Lo Green as his coach, and some of his favorite spots in the city. "The Voice" begins its battle rounds at 7 p.m. Oct. 8 on NBC.
Could you talk about your song choice and what made you want to perform it?
Choosing "Maggie May" was somewhat of a challenge because when choosing a classic song, from the first notes, anyone who hears it is going to have emotional attachment to the song. Knowing that it was "Maggie May" and the expectations for what it was supposed to be like, I knew it was going to be a tough choice, but I thought they would like it because my voice is so different from the original. Rod Stewart had a lot of rasp but my voice is more clean. I think it turned out OK.
What was it like being on the stage?
As soon as those doors opened and you see audience and see chairs, all the nerves kind of dissolved. The weeks before the audition were extremely nerveracking.
What has it been like working with Cee-Lo Green as a coach?
What's great about Cee-Lo is he's never trying to change me or mold something that I'm not. He heard something in my voice that I didn't hear, and he wanted to kind of move forward with that vibe, which turned out to be a really great learning experience. I perhaps didn't see myself as that type of singer, but he brought out something in me.
Give us a little background on yourself and being from the city.
I grew up in Northbrook and then moved down to the city after graduating from [University of Illinois]. I messed around with the open mics around the city. I have since, with my band, worked my way to playing Lincoln Hall, Space, a residency at Schubas, and we just released our album.
What are some of your favorite spots in the city?
I'll keep it to music. I love Schubas. It's just an amazing room, an amazing place to play as artist. It's a great place to go and hang out too. You know it's going to be a good show so, you know, you can peek in and not even know who is playing and have a good time.

In between the South and West hall was SNK's booth, occupying a small and out of the way section for curious gamers to try out their latest offerings. SNK has always been known as the one of the best 2D-focused companies, and their lineup at E3 proves that. One of the most anticipated games are finally arriving on the PSP, and they're coming in a collection! We took a look at the Metal Slug Anthology for a couple of minutes, and came away very impressed.
If you haven't been keeping up with the news, the Anthology is going to gather up the past six Metal Slug titles (1 - 5, plus X) into one little UMD disc. I don't want to get too involved in explaining the game, because chances are if you're reading this, you wanna know faithful the ports are, right?
For the most part, the games we played (MSX, MS2 and MS4) played wonderfully, and are very faithful to their arcade counterparts. There wasn't any slowdown present in any of the games that we played, and everything was exactly like the arcade. I can't comment on the later stages that feature bigger enemies in larger quantities because every game was limited to the first stage only, but even with the larger boss sprites, the game didn't choke at all.
The games support both widescreen and original screen format, and in a pleasant surprise, you can actually change the screen ratio on the fly while in the game by using the Triangle button. The only thing that made us cringe was the short, short load times that occur every time a major enemy comes onto the screen. The loading time is less than a second, but it's totally noticable on the screen and makes the action very jerky. I don't know if there's going to be a workaround to this problem, but hopefully SNK can find a way to fix it so that the game is a 100% faithful port.
With the game expected to ship sometime this year, there are only a few little quirks that SNK should fix in order to appease the SNK faithful. Look for more information on this title soon!

This Woman Removing Her Hijab And Dancing Could Face Two Months In Prison For Expressing Her Freedom
Another shot fired in the ongoing hijab wars.
This is not the first time this video has garnered attention. An article by the Jerusalem Post reported that the footage, apparently first posted in 2010, was going viral in May of this year.
The hijab, or head scarf, is required to be worn by all women and girls, aged 9 and older, under Iran's Islamic Penal Code, which indicates that "women, who appear in public places and roads without wearing an Islamic hijab, shall be sentenced to ten days to two months" imprisonment or a fine of fifty thousand to five hundred Rials."
Because of the risk of imprisonment, protests over the hijab often take place over social media. A Facebook page entitled My Stealthy Freedom recently made headlines for its pictures of women in Iran going without the hijab.www.facebook.com According to iranchamber.com, the hijab is "compulsory not just for Iranian Muslim women but also for members of Iran's religious minorities and foreign female visitors in all public spaces." www.facebook.com www.facebook.com Masoumeh Alinejad, a London-based journalist and the founder of the page, recently found herself the target of a smear campaign by the Iranian government, who falsely reported that she had been gang-raped in front of her son. time.com
This attempt to silence and defame her only bolstered her campaign. Her Facebook page now has over 600,000 likes and continues to grow.www.facebook.com
Alinejad also has her share of detractors in the form of Iranian women who feel that the hijab is a necessary component of social and religious modesty. A Facebook page called "Real Freedom of Iranian Women" showing photos of women wearing the hijab went up as a counterpoint to Alinejad's page.www.facebook.com
An article by the Telegraph points out the dark side of the pro-hijab movement on the "Real Freedom" page: one of the posts is an image of three Iranian journalists without the hijab and the Persian word for "rape" (تجاوز ) superimposed over their faces.www.facebook.com
For more information on Masoumeh Alinejad's campaign to end the compulsory wearing of the hijab, please visit Facebook and Twitter.Please share this with your friends and help bring awareness to women's struggles all over the world.

Form/Space Atelier Program for April 2009
Form/Space Atelier Program for April 2009
Show Title: Postcards From Footsteps: Explorations of Unique and Universal
Show Duration: April 10- May 3
Opening Reception April 10, 6PM as part of the Belltown Art Walk www.belltownartwalk.com
Kristen Elsbeth Dallum graduated from the University of Washington School of Art with a BFA in Interdisciplinary Visual Arts. She has worked with youth artists at Arts Corp, Seattle, finding creative solutions to individual and group efforts, and at Camp Sealth, Vashon Island, where Form/Space Atelier Curator Paul Pauper lived from 10 years old until he was 25, and Pauper still has many family members living there. Postcards From Footsteps: Explorations of Unique and Universal is Kristen Elsbeth Dallum's first solo photography exhibit at Form/Space Atelier. The photographs are editions of one, and are 8x10 inches. Prices are $200 each. Exhibit is free.
Exhibit Description:
This collection of images was created from that which I have photographed
digitally over the past few years; presented for your consideration in black and white as a commentary on contrast, these are the only existing prints of these images, each singularly available as an experiment in detachment. Each image has been gathered from my personal encounters with charming coincidence. Contrast speaks of borders and boundaries, which serve multitudes of functions. They foster controversy, cooperation, and conversation. Where we place them or determine them to fall creates consequences of our choosing, conscious or otherwise. They offer to amplify our stark differences along with our stunning similarities. The paths we tread speak of our intentions as well as our innately wondrous nature, our
knowledge and our imagination. What we choose to uphold and herald, what we choose to abolish and ignore: it is all there in the borders. Beginnings, endings, pivotal circumstances, conclusions, changes and continuity are available, abundant. Thank you for looking!

SAVAR, Bangladesh For 17 days, the seamstress lay trapped in a dark basement pocket beneath thousands of tons of wreckage as temperatures outside climbed into the mid-90s F. She rationed food and water. She banged a pipe to attract attention. She was fast losing hope of ever making it out alive.
In the ruins of the collapsed eight-store garment factory building above her, the frantic rescue operation had long ago ended. It had turned instead into a grim search for the decaying bodies of the more than 1,000 people killed in the world's worst garment industry disaster.
"No one heard me. It was so bad for me. I never dreamed I'd see the daylight again," the seamstress, Reshma Begum, told Somoy TV from her hospital bed after her astonishing rescue on Friday.
The miraculous moment came when salvage workers finally heard Begum's banging. They pulled her to safety. She was in shockingly good condition, wearing a violet outfit with a large, bright pink scarf.
CBS News correspondent Kelly Cobiella reports that it had been 13 days since the last person was pulled alive from the rubble.
"I heard her say, 'I am alive, please save me.' I gave her water. She was OK," said Miraj Hossain, a volunteer who crawled through the debris to help cut Begum free.
The rescue was broadcast on television across Bangladesh. The prime minister rushed to the hospital, as did the woman's family to embrace a loved one they thought they'd never again see alive.
- Water, "luck" key to Bangladeshi seamstress' survival
- Survivors compensated as Bangladesh death toll steadily rises
- Murder charges mulled against Bangladesh building owner
On April 24, Begum was working in a factory on the second floor of Rana Plaza when the building began collapsing around her. She said she raced down a stairwell into the basement, where she became trapped near a Muslim prayer room in a wide pocket that allowed her to survive.
Her long hair got stuck under the rubble, but she used sharp objects to cut her hair and free herself, said Maj. Gen. Chowdhury Hasan Suhrawardy, the head of the local military units in charge of the disaster site.
"There was some dried food around me. I ate the dried food for 15 days. The last two days I had nothing but water. I used to drink only a limited quantity of water to save it. I had some bottles of water around me," Begum told the television station, as doctors and nurses milled about, giving her saline and checking her condition.
More than 2,500 people were rescued in the immediate aftermath of the disaster, but crews had gone nearly two weeks without discovering anyone alive. The last survivor had been found April 28, and even her story ended tragically. As workers tried to free Shahina Akter, a fire broke out and she died of smoke inhalation.
Crews were instead engaged in the painstaking work of trying to remove bodies so the victims' families could bury their loved ones. They eventually approached the section where Begum was trapped.
"I heard voices of the rescue workers for the past several days. I kept hitting the wreckage with sticks and rods just to attract their attention," Begum said.
She finally got the crews' attention when she took a steel pipe and began banging it, said Abdur Razzak, a warrant officer with the military's engineering department who first spotted her in the wreckage.
The rescue crews could not believe there might be a survivor. "But within minutes, we were sure that there was someone," Razzak said.
The workers ran into the dark rubble, eventually getting flashlights, to free her, he said.
They ordered the cranes and bulldozers to stop immediately and used handsaws and welding and drilling equipment to cut through the iron rod and debris still trapping her. They gave her water, oxygen and saline as they worked.
Hundreds of people engaged in removing bodies from the site in recent days raised their hands together in prayer for her survival.
"God, you are the greatest, you can do anything. Please allow us all to rescue the survivor just found," said a man on a loudspeaker leading the supplicants. "We seek apology for our sins. Please pardon us, pardon the person found alive."
After 40 minutes, she was free.
"When we were able to reach there, we lifted her together with our hands and brought her out to put her on a stretcher. She was baffled as rescuers outside shouted 'God is great,'" said Hossain, one of her rescuers.
Soldiers and men in hard hats carried Begum on a stretcher to a waiting ambulance, which brought her to a military hospital. Her rescuers said she was in good condition, despite her ordeal. Razzak said she could even walk.
"She was fine, no injuries. She was just trapped. The space was wide," said Lt. Col. Moyeen, an army official at the scene who uses only one name.
Doctors at the hospital told Bangladeshi television that Begum was out of danger and that her kidney and liver function were fine.
Begum survived for more than two weeks in temperatures that touched the mid-90s F.
"This is just a miracle, this is so pleasing!" said Razzak, the warrant officer.
Begum told her rescuers there were no more survivors in her area. Workers began tearing through the nearby rubble anyway, hoping to find another person alive.
"Reshma told me there were three others with her. They died. She did not see anybody else alive there," Suhrawardy said. The bodies were eventually recovered from another section of the building not far from Begum, he said.
Begum's sister Asma said she and her mother kept a vigil for the seamstress, who is from the rural Dinajpur district, 170 miles north of Dhaka. She said they had been losing hope amid the endless string of grim days, when scores of bodies and no survivors were removed from the rubble.
"We got her back just when we had lost all our hope to find her alive," she told Somoy TV. "God is so merciful."
The women rushed to the hospital to see her.
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina called Begum in the hospital, and the rescued woman began crying on the phone, Suhrawardy said. She told Hasina: "I am fine, please pray for me," he said.

I have retracted and rewritten most of the post I published earlier today about finding resources for developing practice guidelines. There is nothing wrong with the site I described in the previous post, but this link may be a better starting point:
EBMSources: Directory of Evidence-Based Information Websites
This regularly-updated directory lists websites of groups or associations offering practice guidelines, critical appraisals, and systematic reviews. An expert panel evaluates the websites using a validated assessment tool, which is described in detail. The site is affiliated with the Department of Family Medicine at Laval University. In a future post, I will provide more information about the directory and my experiences with it.
Here are tips to help you find your way around the site:
- Use the narrow sidebar on the left side of the page to navigate from page to page.
- Choose your language (French or English) by clicking near the top of the navigation sidebar.
- Under "Assessed Websites", also in the sidebar, click on "complete list" to view all reviewed websites with active links and ratings.

PRINCETON, N.J. (AP) Dalyn Williams tossed three touchdown passes and ran in another as Dartmouth earned a 35-21 win over Princeton on Saturday in each team's finale.
Williams finished 20-of-35 passing for a season-high 284 yards, and ended the year with no interceptions in 114 attempts.
Dartmouth (6-4, 4-3 Ivy League) fell into a 14-0 hole. Quinn Epperly put the Tigers (5-5, 4-3) up by a touchdown with a 4-yard rushing score early in the second quarter, and then Seth DeValve blocked a Dartmouth punt and John Hill returned it for a TD with 8:30 left before halftime.
Williams began the comeback on Dartmouth's next drive, finding Justin Foley for a 7-yard score. Then the Big Green scored three TDs in the first six minutes after halftime - a 54-yard pass from Ryan McManus to Bo Patterson, a 4-yard pass from Williams to Mitch Aprahamian and a 2-yard scamper by Williams.

My areas of interest are American film history, Hollywood genres, and psychoanalytic film theory, and I regularly teach Film Criticism, Film and Literature, and Gender and American Cinema. I have also taugt graduate seminars on topics like Film Noir, Alfred Hitchcock, Slacker Cinema, and the Films of 1999.
My research focuses on psychoanalytic film theory and American cinema--with an emphasis on concepts like desire, the gaze, and enjoyment--and I am especially interested in the work of Todd McGowan, Slavoj Zizek, and Alenka Zupancic. Recently, I have published three articles: the first explains, using the concept of the superego, the appeal of movies that feature criminal profilers, the second theorizes the films of Joel and Ethan Coen as an expression of the Freudian death drive, and the third analyzes the depiction of fatherhood in Breaking Bad.

Do you know what Toppypop is?
Toppypop is an advertising-supported application that belongs to the Lyrics family of adware programs. The application itself is not very prevalent these days, but there is a huge possibility that this will change in the future. Even though Toppypop is not as prevalent as other advertising-supported applications from the same family, it might still enter your system. This usually happens for those users who download various programs from third-party websites and do not have any security application installed on their systems. Of course, Toppypop might also fool you into believing that it is a very beneficial program, and you might download it yourself from some kind of web page. No, users do not download it from its official website, because it is simply not possible to do that at the time of this writing. If Toppypop manages to enter your system, we suggest that you remove it as soon as possible because it will start showing various commercial advertisements on your screen. They might ruin your browsing session and even cause harm to your computer.Toppypop screenshot
Scroll down for full removal instructions
In most cases, users download Toppypop themselves because this program promises to "provide you with a much easier & comfortable way to browse the web." Even though it says that it will boost your browsing experience, the truth is that it will show commercial advertisements and pop-up ads on your screen. The program hides the fact that it is ad-supported; there is no such information on the startup page of this official website. Users find out very quickly that it shows ads even though it does not inform them about that. These ads are very intrusive, and they might appear on every website. On top of that, there is a possibility that they will cause harm to your system by redirecting you to the websites containing malicious software. You will never know whether a trustworthy link is integrated into the ad, which means that there is a possibility that one day you will cause harm to your PC. If you want to protect your system, you have to delete Toppypop and eliminate other untrustworthy programs that have entered your system along with it.
There is a huge possibility that you have installed Toppypop on your system during the installation of another program. It is very likely that you have downloaded that program from an untrustworthy web page or torrent. Many programs use different tactics to enter systems, so you might encounter threats that are more serious if compared to adware. Of course, you can simply prevent this from happening. You just have to acquire a security tool. Only a trustworthy security application can guarantee that you will encounter malware ever again.
It will not be difficult to get rid of Toppypop because this program can be removed via Control Panel. If you have never tried doing that, you can use our manual removal instructions or, alternatively, simply scan your system with an automatic malware remover in order to erase Toppypop. It is up to you how to get rid of Toppypop.
How to get rid of Toppypop
Windows XP
- Click the Start button.
- Select Control Panel.
- Click Add or Remove Programs.
- Select the program and click Remove.
Windows 7 and Vista
- Open the menu and select Control Panel.
- Click Uninstall a program.
- Right-click on the unwanted program and click Uninstall.
Windows 8/Windows 8.1/Windows 10
- Tap the Windows key + R.
- Enter Control Panel in the box and click OK.
- Click Uninstall a program.
- Select the application that you wish to erase.
- Click the Uninstall button.
In non-techie terms:
If you have erased Toppypop manually, it is very likely that other undesirable programs are still installed on your computer. We highly recommend that you check your system's condition. You can easily do that by scanning the system with a trustworthy diagnostic scanner. We believe that SpyHunter scanner is the best choice so we recommend using it.

So I booked my venue at a resturant, and their events coordinator told me they would have a standby tent for my outdoor ceremony in case of rain (8′ x 13′ I think…a large rectangular tent. Nothing fancy though). Perfect. She told me it would be $100. More than doable.
6 months in to planning, the event coordinator changed. My previous one was no where to be found, and the new girl was changing EVERYTHING. she was trying to tell me I couldn't do this and that and this now had a fee, etc. Luckily I don't take peoples BS so I got her to waive a lot of the changes. Then last meeting, in passing, she reminded me of the tent and that it would be $1,000 if we used it! $1,000!!! I was mostly shocked because I was previously told $100. But it was not in the contract, because it's not really something you need in a contract, or so I thought.
I had already gotten her to waive so much she pretty much hates me at this point, and I don't want her to not want to work with me well the day of. But I am freaking out about the tent situation. My wedding is in November, which is notorious for who knows what weather. I mentioned how our previous coordinator told us $100 and she pretty much scoffed and said no way.
Is this standard for tent rentals or ridiculous and I should say something more?

As an introduction to healing with animals I would like all those who are reading this to first please see this short 1min 24 secs youtube video by Hakim archuletta titled 'Allah's Mercy: Horses Can Heal' before reading the article.
Cat Purr Frequency Increases Bone Density & Speeds Injury Recovery
......purring is often compared to the dhikr, the rhythmic chanting of the Sufis , which is used in many early Islamic hospitals as a healing process. Modern science recently discovered the healing powers of the cats' purr: "…optimal frequency for bone stimulation is 50 hertz. The dominant and fundamental frequency for three species of cats' purr is exactly 25 to 50 hertz: the best frequencies for bone growth and fracture healing. The cat's purr falls well within the 20-50 hertz anabolic range, and extends up to 140 hertz ." (healing section)
Dr. Clinton Rubin and his associates made a fantastic discovery. They found that exposure to frequencies between 20-50 Hz (at low dB) creates the robust striations of increased bone density.
There is also an old veterinary saying still repeated in veterinary schools which states, " If you put a cat and a bunch of broken bones in the same room, the bones will heal."
The effects of frequency of mechanical vibration on experimental fracture healing, Zhonghua Wai Ke Za Zhi, in his work with rabbits, found that frequencies of 25 and 50 hertz promote bone strength by 20%, and stimulate both the healing of fractures, and the speed at which the fractures heal.
There is also documentation that low frequencies, at low dB are helpful with regard to pain relief, and the healing of tendons and muscles. Vibrational stimulation between 50-150 Hz has been found to relieve suffering in 82% of persons suffering from acute and chronic pain.
Biomechanical stimulation which uses mechanical vibration of standardized frequencies from 18 - 35 Hz is used in Russian sports medicine. This technique improves the relaxation of strained muscle structures and increases the stretching ability of capsules and tendons…..
In Summary: Vibrations between 20-140 Hz are therapeutic for bone growth/fracture healing, pain relief/swelling reduction, wound healing, muscle growth and repair/tendon repair, mobility of joints and the relief of dyspnoea-(shortness of breath- see wiki).
cats' purrs is exactly 25 Hz, or 50 Hz the best frequencies for bone growth and fracture healing. 180-35 Hz is used in therapeutic biomechanical stimulation for joint mobility.
The frequencies for therapeutic pain relief are from 50-150 Hz. All of the individual cats have al least 5 sets of strong harmonics in this range. Therapeutic frequencies for the generation of muscle strength lie between 2-100 Hz. All of the individual cats have al least 4 sets of strong harmonics in this range.
Cats have a strong harmonic at exactly 100 Hz, the vibrational frequency found to relieve dyspnoea. Researchers have found that a cat's purr, can decrease the symptoms of a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease called dysponea in both cats and humans.
The cat's purr is a healing mechanism and is a natural way to increase strength, and decrease healing time,the vibration of a cat's purr can speed up the healing process not only for cats but for other animals as well. Research indicates that even humans can benefit. If you are recovering from an injury, you should hug a purring cat. Consistent vibrational sound frequencies of 25-150 Hz, which is the range of a cat's purr, aid in the healing of bones, tendons, ligaments and muscles, as well as providing pain relief.
Tendons and Muscles
One study found that following sports injuries, low-frequency biomechanical stimulation can prevent decreases in muscle strength and mass. Another found that the vibration can speed tendon healing in the ankle, increasing upper ankle joint mobility by up to 19% after injury.
Pain Relief
Researchers found that exposure to a sound frequency between 50 and 150 Hz provided relief for 82% of those suffering chronic and acute pain. Thus, it is unsurprising that cats often purr when they are injured or giving birth.
Purr Frequency Research
There are many indications that the vibrational frequency of a cat's purr could provide healing and perhaps even health protection benefits not only for cats but for humans as well.
Purring Helps with Healing
Cat Purr Frequency Increases Bone Density & Speeds Injury Recovery
The vibration of a cat's purr can speed up the healing process not only for cats but for other animals as well. Research indicates that even humans can benefit. If you are recovering from an injury, you should hug a purring cat. Consistent vibrational sound frequencies of 25-150 Hz, which is the range of a cat's purr, aid in the healing of bones, tendons, ligaments and muscles, as well as providing pain relief.
Healing After Injury
Cats' bones heal faster and more easily after fractures than those of dogs. Veterinary medicine researchers note that 90% of cats that plummet from extraordinary heights survive despite serious injuries. Interestingly, science has known for many years that vibrations at specific levels or frequencies cause healing changes in the body. They can, for example, induce bone growth and regeneration. Bone fractures heal faster and weakened bones begin to strengthen and rebuild.
Also, in the higher frequency ranges, the production of the body's own natural anti-inflammatory compounds increases thereby reducing joint pain and swelling. There is further evidence of muscle, tendon and ligament repair within these frequency ranges as well. Low frequency vibration induces pain relief and healing of tendons and muscles, and cats purr at those very same frequencies.
In effect then, by changing the frequency of their purring, cats may be fine-tuning their healing abilities, and it is this unique healing advantage that has probably given rise to the notion of cats having nine lives. Study discovered that such exposure creates the robust striations of increased bone density, suggesting applications for osteoporosis, particularly in post-menopausal women and the elderly.
Healing by association - Suhba and Cats can Improve Your Mood
But it's the cat's "healing by association" that most people find interesting: that ability of a cat to sympathetically help cure illnesses in people simply by being around them. Studies have also shown that owners, especially senior citizens, who have cats have lower blood pressure and can live longer than humans who don't own pets.
The warmth of their furry bodies and open, purring friendship can drastically influence a person's state of mind for the better. Vital signs taken after an individual's interaction with a pet show positive effects on the blood pressure, pulse, and breathing frequency, and the results of these tests are surprisingly similar to the body's condition after deep meditation. Some studies have even indicated that having pets reduces stress and results in a lowered risk of heart disease.
Many individuals swear they can ease or completely eliminate their migraine headaches simply by lying down with a purring cat next to their head. Can't hit that minimum recommended daily dose of bone-enriching calcium? Maybe grabbing the nearest cat and holding it close may just prove to be the answer to brittle-bones. Having surgery? Perhaps after coming home, keeping a cat nearby will reduce your recovery time. So, go get a cat. Keep it happy and purring. You're both likely to be healthier and you'll have a great friend who truly understands how you're feeling.
Doctors and scientists in a number of different medical fields are researching the healing properties of sound, and the results are pretty promising. Most body cavities and tissues have their own resonant frequencies, and sound in those ranges can stimulate the respective organs to heal. For example: the human lungs resonate at around 39 hertz (in a fluid medium) and researchers found sound at that frequency to be beneficial to people with lung diseases such as cystic fibrosis.
Vibrational stimulation not only relieves suffering in 82% of persons suffering from acute and chronic pain but also generates new tissue growth, augments wound tissue strength, improves local circulation and oxygenation, reduces swelling and/or inhibits bacterial growth?
Lowered stress and increased calmness could be the cause, but studies over the last twenty years have also shown that people who own pets are much healthier than their non-pet owning counterparts; they are often less-prone to minor illnesses like colds and influenza, score better on psychological tests, and claim to feel a greater sense of well-being
Adults are not the only ones who benefit from caring for a cat. Children who have participated in the raising of a pet have shown higher self esteem levels, better social skills, and a greater sense of responsibility toward others. For young children and infants, exposure to cats at a young age can also help the child develop resistance to allergens and asthma.
A new study suggests cat owners are less likely to die of a heart attack or stroke than people who, well, don't own cats. Researchers, found that feline-less people were 30 to 40 percent more likely to die of cardiovascular disease than those with cats.

Star Trek has a reputation for having a stacked list of guest stars. While it's pretty cool that Iggy Pop and The Rock made cameos, the coolest guest star would have to be Mae Jemison. She may not wrestle or make punk music on the side, but she was the first person to have boarded the Enterprise who actually visited the final frontier in real life.
Jemison is a physician, engineer and NASA astronaut, as well as a former guest star on Star Trek: The Next Generation. In addition to being the first astronaut to be on Star Trek, she was also the first African American woman to travel to space. She was aboard the space shuttle Endeavour in 1992. Joining the first class of astronauts selected after the Challenger disaster in 1986, she stood out as one of 15 chosen from 2,000 applicants.
She left NASA in 1993 after her trip to space and, to this day, is a public speaker and a Professor-at-Large at Cornell University. There are few people who have that exciting of a resume, let alone got a chance to guest on one of their favorite TV shows.
According to an interview in Stanford Today, Nichelle Nichols in Star Trek is who originally inspired Jemison to join NASA. In 1993, she caught up with LeVar Burton, who asked her if she wanted to be in an episode of Star Trek that he was directing. She ended up playing Lieutenant junior grade Palmer in the season six episode "Second Chances." Nichols even stopped by the set just to meet her.
"I got to hang out with Worf. I got to meet Riker, and all these kinds of things. It was a very cool experience, because in many ways it was coming full circle," Jemison said, according to Memory Alpha. "As a little girl, I watched Star Trek. I knew that looking at Nichelle Nichols as Lieutenant Uhura, someone was connecting my idea of space, and now I got to come back around and help to verify that 'yes, this happened.'"

text: Hi BHers, As we all know Fiverr is by far the no.1 place to go for social media & Google manipulation. It seems that post-IPO, Facebook is on the prowl for "Like" providers. I would go as far to say that without SEO providers, Fiverr would be akin to a barren wasteland. There is no doubt that Fiverr will be on the radar of the giants of this game. So on that note - what do you guys think? -Backroom gentleman's agreement between the respective entrepreneurs, perhaps? - Or, hypothetical situation: if Fiverr won a lawsuit (lets say it was sued by Facebook) - it would set precedent for small providers to do as they please. As we know from various threads here, Facebook likes to pick on the small guys. Discuss. Kind regards, JW

Lionel Messi vs. History
Messi Breaks Yet Another Scoring Record—Or Does He?
FIFA, the governing body of world soccer, raised the white flag against history last week, announcing it wouldn't verify records or statistics in any competition apart from its own. Smart move.
The decision means FIFA won't be the final adjudicator when it comes to determining legitimate soccer records, nor will it have to trawl back through the archives—assuming there are any—turning itself into part-detective, part-historian. Most of all, FIFA won't ever have to say to one of its member nations something like: You know,...

The winter rains in western Algeria brought a strange harvest to the village of Sidi M'hamed-Benaouda.
When the water receded from a field in this village in the mountains between Algiers and Oran, it carried away a layer of dirt covering the bones of one or more people who had been kidnapped by a government-sponsored militia almost a decade ago.
A lot of bones are probably going to be found in Algeria in the coming years. Somewhere between 4,000 and 10,000 people were disappeared by the government and its minions during the appalling civil war that consumed the country during the 1990s.
In the beginning, public sympathy favored the regime's opponents; the poor and much of the middle class thought new leaders would shake up the system, reduce corruption and afford them new economic opportunities. But the increasing violence and greed of the Islamist armed groups that sprang up in suburbs and rural areas alienated the middle class, and as their support eroded, the armed groups drifted into irrational and self-defeating behavior.
By the middle of the decade, the government was fighting off a shadowy Islamist insurgency that butchered tens of thousands of innocents and eventually pronounced Algerian society as a whole to be unbelievers and worthy of execution. But along the way to winning the war against an execrable enemy, the Algerian state did and permitted things that are unforgivable, and until recently, unspeakable.
Ten thousand people don't disappear without leaving many relatives behind, and the mothers and wives and sons of Algeria's disappeared are organizing. They hope to use the occasion of the first presidential elections since the civil war ground to an ambiguous halt, to be held on April 8, to force the state to acknowledge its role in the disappearances. Last year President Abdelaziz Bouteflika, who is running for a second term, announced that he was forming a new commission to investigate the thousands of cases documented by local groups.
Activists have little faith that the new commission will display any more teeth than the one it replaces, and they note the absurdity of the regime's appointing commissions to investigate disappearances. The commission's true purpose, they say, is to reduce pressure for real, independent investigations. There is almost no democratic opposition in Algeria–the election is expected to be a competition between the two men now trying to nail down the nomination of the former governing party, Bouteflika and former Prime Minister Ali Benflis. Parliament member and presidential candidate Louisa Hanoune and her relatively small Workers Party are one of the few groups in Parliament seen as a genuine opposition party; not coincidentally, she has been one of the few real voices for reconciliation with the vanquished Islamists and for recognition of the vanished victims of the war.

(Image: Mohylek; this old fire tower may have been repurposed)
In a June 2012 article on WebUrbanist, SA Rogers wrote of this rumoured fire tower house: "Very little information is available, but this spiraling blue fire tower in Poland is purported to be a home. That would be one very long walk to a very small living space, especially when it's raining, but the views are probably worth it."
We're still unsure whether or not the old fire tower is indeed a home, and thus representing a creative and arguably rather daring example of adaptive reuse. But there's no denying that the view would be spectacular – if indeed the platform's floor space is limited.
Fan of adaptive reuse? If so, don't miss these 10 brilliant examples of repurposed buildings and other objects.
