SIF Program Director Mike McQuestion and SIF Senior Program Officer Jonas Mbwangue are in Dakar, Senegal today to meet with members of the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Financing and Parliament to work on recommendations for a national immunization fund. Their meeting is subsequent to Senegal's second Sabin-sponsored parliamentary briefing which took place in December of last year. It was at this time that parliamentarians convinced Dr. Lamine Sall, the Chief of Cabinet, to increase the budget for their national immunization program. This year, the Senegalese Government was able to allocate 2.2 million USD for this program - a marked 10 percent increase from 2009.
Depicted in the photo are Dr. Aboubacry Fall, Director of Division of Preventive Medicine, and Mamadou Ndiaye whom were at Senegal's Ministry of Health discussing financing strategies with counterparts in Dakar.

Title and summary sections are what replace the objective statement – our old, ineffective, and outdated friend who sadly does not have a place on the resume anymore.
Without an objective statement, how will employers know what I'm looking for?
Exactly. Employers already know what you want – a job – and are more interested in why they should consider you for their open position. Instead of stating, "I am looking for an administrative assistant position that will utilize my organizational skills," tell the employer that you are an administrative assistant by titling your resume with the position you are seeking, then go into a summary that starts with, "Highly knowledgeable administrative professional with 5+ years of experience and outstanding organizational skills."
Ever heard of an elevator pitch or 30-second commercial? Your summary section is just that – a brief, excitement-generating introductory paragraph that outlines who you are and what you have to offer. Let's take a look at a few Objective Statement Makeovers:
Summary sections can be challenging to write, so take a step back and try to look at your career from the eyes of the employer. What are they looking for? What do I have to offer that other candidates don't have? Take a shot at drafting a 3 to 5 sentence paragraph and copy/paste it over your objective statement. You'll instantly see the difference it makes in marketing you as a qualified professional.

Nov. 30, 2007
We are here. We believe. And we belong.
Those are the sentiments of the Lipscomb Lady Bisons who will make their first appearance in the NCAA Tournament in the first round Friday night at 6 p.m. CT.
"We believe in one another, but we also believe in the fact that we do belong here," said Lipscomb coach Brandon Rosenthal. "We have talked about being the first volleyball team to play in the NCAA Tournament from Lipscomb.
"We have talked about this a lot. Nerves will kind of be there at the beginning of the match. We just need to go out and play. We are ready."
Thursday was a day of adjustment for the Lady Bisons. They ate lunch together, went to a matinee at near-by theater, watched video of Dayton in action and closed out the day with a two-hour practice session at the Frericks Center.
The Lady Bisons, the Atlantic Sun Tournament Champion with a 20-11 record, will hold a closed practice Friday before facing host Dayton, the Atlantic 10 Champion with a 32-1 record. The game can be seen on video streaming by clicking here, NCAA First Round
"It hit me Thursday morning when I woke up," said Rosenthal. "It feels unbelievable. It felt great to be with the players all day and kind of relax and soak it all in.
"I thought it was a good practice. At first, there is the realization that we are really here and this is what it is all about. This is a new gym for us. But I really like the way we finished practice. It was real spirited and competitive. That's what we want."
Dayton will be playing in front of its home crowd. A sellout of 2,400 is expected. Kentucky and Michigan State play in the first game of the evening.
Rosenthal expects a tough match with Dayton, a team that holds a height edge on the Lady Bisons.
"I think the atmosphere is going to be electric," Rosenthal said. "They do a great job of getting people here.
"Dayton doesn't make a lot of mistakes and we know that. If we can control our emotions in the beginning and play our game we will be happy."
The game is going to be played on a Sport Court surface. Most of the Lady Bisons have played on the surface in club tournaments.
"You could make a point of it, but I don't think it is very valid how much different it is," Rosenthal said. "It has a little more cushion and a little more spring than a hard court."
The Lady Bisons have won four games in a row and six of their last seven.
They are one of six teams making their first NCAA appearance. The others are Tennessee State, Cleveland State, South Dakota State, Delaware and Nevada-Las Vegas.

Story highlights
- The Perez brothers have been extradited to the United States
- Other charges include interstate prostitution, alien smuggling and money laundering
- The indictments are a result of the Bilateral Human Trafficking Enforcement Initiative
Two Mexican brothers have been extradited to the United States to join a third brother to face sex trafficking charges in New York as part of a complex collaborative effort to combat human trafficking, federal officials said Monday.
Benito Lopez-Perez, 32, and Anastasio Romero-Perez, 39, were arraigned on a 25-count indictment Monday morning in Brooklyn Federal Court, the U.S. attorney and the Justice Department said in a news release.
The extensive indictment is the product of the Bilateral Human Trafficking Enforcement Initiative, an in-depth partnership involving the Department of Justice, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Homeland Security Investigations, the Urban Justice Center and many non-profit and non-governmental organizations in the United States and Mexico, the release said.
"The indictment charges the defendants with sex trafficking, interstate prostitution, alien smuggling and money laundering offenses, involving victims as young as 14 and 15 years old," it said.
On December 3, the third brother, Jose Gabino Barrientos-Perez, 51, was extradited from Mexico to face the same charges, officials said.
U.S. Attorney Loretta E. Lynch also announced the extradition last month of Antonio Lira-Robles on the same charges.
All the extraditions resulted from the comprehensive anti-trafficking program, which has so far resulted in the indictment of 52 defendants on sex trafficking charges and has "rescued over 100 victims, including 17 minors," the release said.
"The sex trafficking of young girls and women is modern-day slavery we will do everything in our power to eradicate," Lynch said in a news conference Monday.
She also announced the reuniting of a victim of sex trafficking with her child after a separation of more than 10 years.
The mother was involved with the Carreto family sex trafficking ring, officials said. The ring operated between Mexico and United States from 1991 to 2004, the Justice Department said upon Carreto's sentencing in 2009.
United States v. Carreto is considered to be "one of the first sex trafficking cases prosecuted by the United States Attorney's Office in Brooklyn," according to Monday's news release, "After substantial post-conviction investigation and international coordination, the child was located and reunited with the victim-mother."
Sienna Baskin, co-director of the Sex Workers Project at the Urban Justice Center, called this "an example of people going above and beyond and being creative and thinking outside the box in order to make this happen. Now we need the lessons we learned in this case to be institutionalized."
Baskin said she and others working as a part of the ad hoc task force realize that the fate of the victims is just as important as the fate of the traffickers.
Under the initiative, "the United States and Mexico have collaborated to bring high-impact prosecutions under both U.S. and Mexican law to more effectively dismantle human trafficking networks operating across the U.S.-Mexico border," Monday's news release said.
"The extraditions over the weekend followed by the arraignments today are a testament to our resolve to bring justice to those charged with forcing young women into prostitution," James T. Hayes Jr. is the special agent-in-charge of Homeland Security Investigations in New York.

Welcome to Watch List, where we identify five things on TV to watch while you try and squeeze one more day out of the turkey, stuffing and cranberries. You can't really tolerate one more day, can you? When you're out of gravy? You can? I admire your practicality, my friend. LET'S GO!
UNANSWERED PRAYERS – 9:00PM (Lifetime) This Lifetime TV movie was produced by Garth Brooks and is based on a song that Brooks wrote. No joke. Someone actually made a Garth Brooks song into a movie, and they didn't even choose "The Thunder Rolls"! I'm outraged. That song is about a woman who murders her cheatin' hubby! It was practically DESTINED to become a Lifetime movie. Instead, Garth chooses a song about a married dude who faces conflicted feelings when his high school crush moves back to town. It's just like "Eastbound & Down," only it takes its rednecks seriously. For a lighter side of Garth adaptations, stay tuned for "Friends in Low Places," a wacky new comedy coming soon to TBS. ANTICIPATION: AT LEAST IT'S NOT A CHRIS GAINES SONG!
CMA COUNTRY CHRISTMAS – 9:30PM (ABC) If Garth's movie ain't country enough for you, then flip on over to this ABC holiday special featuring (deep breath) Darius Rucker, Sugarland, Leann Rimes (the thunder rolls for her!), Sheryl Crow, Reba (Since when did she drop her last name? I didn't notarize that), Rascal Flatts, Brad Paisley, and Kellie Pickler. It's all the country that could fit into one stocking. We could fit more, but then there wouldn't be enough room for the bottle of Old Granddad. ANTICIPATION: NO TREE! JUST A FORD TRUCK WITH A STAR ON TOP!
LIE TO ME – 9:00PM (FOX) John Amos guest stars tonight! May of you will always remember him as the Dad on "Good Times," or as Mr. McDowell from "Coming to America." Me? I'll always remember John as the evil turncoat who slit a dude's throat in "Die Hard 2." Man, that movie was violent. And awesome. ANTICIPATION: WATCH YOUR NECKS!
RESTREPO – 9:00PM (NatGeo – an NBC/Universal network) Author Sebastian Junger ("War") and filmmaker Tim Hetherington spent a year embedded with U.S. troops stationed in the Korengal Valley in Afghanistan. This is the movie they produced. Not for the faint of heart. ANTICIPATION: SERIOUSLY!
HOARDERS – 10:00PM (A&E) A man sleeps in his car because his wife's hoarding has left him no place to sleep in the house. And because he slept with the woman's sister. I made that last part up. But really, he may as well. ANTICIPATION: PACKED WITH GOODNESS!

My daughter and I ordered a dress from Doll House which was to be custom made. I placed the order on a Monday and was surprised to get a phone call the following Monday to say the dress had arrived it only took eight 8 days. I took the dress home and when I put the dress on my daughter, I realized that had just altered the dress (in store) and found pins still in the side seams. I was so disgusted with their lie when confronted they would not talk to me or acknowledge what they had done. To all you mum's out there DON'T BUY FROM DOLL HOUSE.

When we ordered mail-order transplant plugs, we broke apart the rootballs of half of the plants that were seriously rootbound, a practice that is often recommended. The other half we left alone. In all cases, the plugs whose roots were left intact grew better than the ones that were split open or untangled.
We talked to several transplant experts, including Michael Orzolek at Pennsylvania State and Albert Liptay at the University of Guelph in Ontario, about our observations, and they weren't surprised. Liptay has studied the tendency of roots to circle around the sides of containers rather than growing all through the soil mass (the roots follow the path of least resistance and seek the high oxygen environment at the edge of the rootball). He says that, when transplanted, annual vegetables and flowers can quickly generate new growing points all along the roots at the edge of the rootball, and will begin exploring the new garden soil almost immediately if the ground is moist and in good contact with the rootbound mass. Untangling may be a good idea for shrubs and trees, which have permanent roots that may choke each other as they expand over the years, but for annuals it only slows the plant down.

This has been 12 years and 363 days in the making.
For the first time since the 2000 season (Oct. 7), North Park walked off the football field with a College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin victory under their belt as they held off visiting Carthage College 22-20 before a capacity crowd at the Holmgren Athletic Complex Saturday afternoon into early evening.
First-year head coach Mike Conway had to fight back tears because of how much this meant not only to the seniors of the football team, but the countless number of student-athletes that came through the football program before them that didn't win a single CCIW contest.
"I'm a little overwhelmed because we play every game to win," Conway said. "Even though we lost our first three games there were little things along the way that taught us how to win and that culminated here today. I can't say enough about our team in general, but especially our defense did an amazing job. Those guys fought so hard and fought through injuries. But this was something we set out to do, and we're definitely not finished yet."
The magnitude of Saturday's victory sent waves throughout the North Park community as well as the CCIW and on a national level that NPU Football will soon be a program to be reckoned with.
"We played with heart and desire at a level that may have never been played here before," Conway said. "Being a first year guy, I don't know that for sure but we put together a complete game and this has to be the best football played here in the last (12 years)."
North Park's defense was what truly won the game for the hosts as they held Carthage to under 300 yards of total offense and forced the Red Men to kick two field goals on a pair of scoring drives. The Vikings held a 10-0 lead through the first 20 minutes of the game after freshman quarterback T. D. Conway hooked up with his brother Dakota on a 17-yard touchdown pass, and later a Noah Moore 20-yard field goal with 10:02 remaining the half. The Vikings then pushed their advantage to a 16-3 margin after Conway fired a 12-yard touchdown pass to senior Tyler Krebswith 12:53 left in the third quarter, but a pair of Carthage touchdowns allowed the visitors to complete a near insurmountable comeback which gave them a 17-16 edge just before the contest was delayed by lightning and rain for an hour and 18 minutes.
Carthage picked up right where it left off after the delay as it pushed its lead up to 20-16 on a 26-yard field goal from Brett Burkari with 2:40 left in the third quarter, but T.D. made sure the Homecoming crowd wasn't going to be denied a victory as he led the Vikings down field 80 yards in eight plays and culminated the drive with a 20-yard scoring pass to senior John Barnabee. Carthage did get the ball back with 4:21 left in the contest, but senior linebacker Bennett Dettlinger came up with a crucial interception to thwart the Red Men's chances on their third play of the drive.
"I'm just so proud of our team, our coaches, our kids and I'm proud to be a Viking today," Mike Conway said. "Our 17 seniors could've picked up and quit after being beat down for their first three years with the team but none of them did. They didn't quit and we've given them everything we have to make this happen and we made it happen."
T.D. finished the day completing 27 of 48 passes for a whopping 302 yards. Dakota was on the receiving end of most of them as he had 12 catches for 97 yards. Sophomore Drew Walkington led the Vikings' ground game with 10 rushes for 60 yards.
"This is a historic and monumental day for this program and our players," Mike Conway said. "I'm so proud of all the guys on this team and all the guys that stayed with us, and this is something that's life-changing maybe, but they'll never forget this and we made it happen because of them."

It's nothing less than heresy to even suggest that the folks in Tennessee might know as much about shrimp and grits as those in the Carolina and Georgia Low Country, where the specialty originated. But when my shrimp-and-grits-obsessed Mississippi cohort, Julia Reed, put me on to the cheesy, tomatoey creation served at Pearl's Foggy Mountain Cafe in the unlikely small town of Sewanee, Tennessee, I knew I'd encountered something altogether different but special. Of course, this glorious dish is now becoming as fashionable in restaurants all over the country as blackened redfish once was, and God knows the abominable transformations it will suffer at the hands of cocky chefs. This, however, is one modification that gives the dish a truly exciting new dimension, without distorting its integrity.–James Villas
LC Simple Shrimp And Grits Note
Okay, so yes, this is a rather embellished version of shrimp and grits. Not that we're complaining, mind you. But if what you seek is a simpler, more traditional rendition of the classic, we can oblige. Simply scroll down the page and look under "Hungry for More" and you'll find two other, less-tampered-with renditions of this Southern belle.
Tennessee Shrimp and Grits
- Quick Glance
- Serves 4
IngredientsEmail Grocery List
- For the grits
- 4 cups water
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup regular grits
- 6 ounces sharp Cheddar cheese, grated
- 3 tablespoons butter
- For the shrimp
- 1 pound fresh medium shrimp
- 2 cups water
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1/2 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup diced ripe fresh tomatoes
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, crumbled
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon store-bought or homemade tomato paste
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Store-bought or homemade Tabasco sauce, to taste
- 2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley leaves
- Make the grits
- 1. Combine the water and salt in a heavy saucepan and bring to a boil. Gradually add the grits, stirring, reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook till the liquid has been absorbed, 15 to 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the pan from the heat; add the cheese and butter, and stir till melted. Keep warm.
- Make the shrimp
- 2. Meanwhile, peel and devein the shrimp, combine the shells and water in a saucepan, and reserve the shrimp. Bring the water to a boil, reduce the heat slightly, cook till the liquid is reduced by half, and strain the stock into a bowl.
- 3. In a large skillet, melt the butter over moderate heat, add the onion, bell pepper, and garlic and cook, stirring, till softened, about 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes and thyme and cook about 3 minutes longer. Sprinkle the flour over the top and stir well. Add the reserved shrimp and cook, stirring, till they turn pink, about 2 minutes.
- 4. Add 1/2 cup of the stock, cook 3 minutes longer, add the tomato paste, and stir well. Add the cream, Worcestershire, salt and pepper, Tabasco, and, if necessary, a little more stock to make a sauce that easily coats the shrimp. Heat well.
- 5. To serve, spoon a mound of grits in the center of each serving plate, spoon shrimp around the grits, and sprinkle parsley over the top.

Crew of the Arctic Sunrise visit the abandoned Russian settlement / coalmine of Pyramiden, on Svalbard. Girlguides Miryam Justo and Yvette Sena Blankson went ashore to see with their own eyes and discovered there's not only beauty in the Arctic. Seen everywhere in the settlement were enormous amounts of junk, garbage, wrecked gear, abandoned homes and personal items left behind.07/04/2012

Mediation is a dispute-resolution method
that relies on the open exchange of information, ideas and alternatives to help
individuals resolve their difficulties outside of court. It has proven to be an
especially cost-efficient tool for resolving disputes in the workers'
compensation arena. It is a process which is usually ordered by the court and
which requires the injured worker and the employer/carrier to attempt to
mediate or resolve the case or the issues between themselves, without the
judge's involvement.
Mediation usually requires all parties to
be in attendance and is a process which is voluntary in nature. Although all
parties' presence is required and is mandatory, coming to some agreement is not
mandatory. The mediator is an impartial person who does not favor one side over
the other and matters which are brought before the mediator in private
conference cannot be disclosed to the other side without permission. The
mediator attempts to try and get the parties to come to some type of
conciliatory agreement. Resolving the issues or possible settlement of the case
almost always means that the employer/carrier is paying money to the injured
worker. Since no case is 100% guaranteed to each side to win or lose, each side
comes to a mediation with a set of facts and arguments to help try and resolve
the conflict.
If the parties cannot agree to resolve or
settle the issues at mediation, the case proceeds to a hearing and the judge is
not informed of any of the matters brought out at the mediation. Mediation is a
time-saving opportunity for both sides to work out any difficulties before
proceeding before a long and drawn out hearing before a judge which can result
in an appeal. Your involvement at mediation can be as much or as little as you
desire and normally, the attorneys present each separate side to the mediator
and the mediator goes back and forth trying to get the parties to reach some
type of agreement.

Regular well-baby doctor visits help development
Shari Lopatin
TriWest Healthcare Alliance
Your baby's scheduled well-baby doctor exam has been missed; is there reason for concern?
Your baby isn't sick, so it's not that important … is it?
Because babies grow so quickly, regular well-baby doctor visits help keep them happy and healthy. Wellness visits should start two days after discharge from the hospital and should continue on the following schedule: 2 weeks old, then 2, 4, 6, 9, 12, 15 and 18 months old.
These regular visits allow the pediatrician or nurse practitioner to check your baby's growth and development. They also give you, as the parent, important information about what to expect as your child grows up. Identifying any growth or development issues early helps your child get additional specialty care, if needed.
During a well-baby visit, your child will also receive any vaccinations that are due. Vaccinations are a big part of protecting your child from disease. If your baby isn't vaccinated, these diseases could make your child very sick — or even cause death.
Make the most during your regular well-baby visits. Write down any questions or concerns you may have about your child's development and bring them with you. This way you won't forget to ask the provider during the exam.
Well-baby visits are a Tricare-covered benefit with no authorizations, cost-shares, co-payments or deductibles for those eligible

GPS data analyzes are a vital part of making progress as a competitive orienteer. With the data you can see the route choices you have made and compare your performance with the competition. In this article we will focus on using Movescount to improve your orienteering.
"Just saving and seeing your own route choices is not very interesting," says Jarkko Ryyppö, an avid orienteer, cartographer and developer of online service Route Gadget.
Jarkko explains that you should know your chosen route anyway. If you don't, seeing it afterwards does not help you improve. In that case you have just run a random route out there.
The interesting topics according to Jarkko Ryyppö are your route choices and the pace you are moving. Basically there are two types of time-losses: the sections where you were moving fast, but not following the optimum route, and moments when you simply weren't moving fast enough.
The first problem area you can identify by looking at your route in Movescount, the latter by looking at some of the other data your watch has saved.
Here are Jarkko Ryyppö's four tips for analyzing an orienteering Move on Suunto Movescount.
1. Time spent at the control
How long did it take from 30 meters before the control to 30 meters after the control? Compare that to a normal 60-meter section in similar terrain. If the time difference is big, your plan for the next leg was not clear enough when approaching the control.
"If you have run the route yourself, you will be able to identify the control points in Movescount," says Ryyppö. "Just hoover the cursor over the route and calculate the time spent at the control."
Hoover over the route to see your split time, distance etc.
2. The direction from the control
Look at the control points in Movescount and the directions you have left them. Have you left the control in the right direction and started running straight towards the next control?
3. Extra distance
Look at your route on a specific leg and see if you could run that in a straighter line. Did you cover extra distance? Did you run straight or curve to either left or right? Is drifting in one direction typical to you?
4. Heart rate, running cadence and pace
Look at your heart rate, pace and running cadence graphs. Are the figures unusually low at some point? This may reveal sections when you have been hesitant. Usually these are moments when you have not had a clear plan or you have not had a distinctive terrain feature to aim for.
The pace graph may reveal moments when you have been going slow or stopped.
"Movescount can't reveal the root causes for these slow sections but when you look at the identified area also on your map, you can find reasons for your slower pace."
After analyzing your run in Movescount, you are not done yet. Now you should find ways not to make the same mistakes again. So keep on checking your routes and get to know what you should work on to be faster, to be better.
Stay tuned for the second article in the series that will introduce you to other analyzing tools for orienteers.

Original Trinity Hymnal, #664
Jesus is all the world to me,
My life, my joy, my all;
He is my strength from day to day,
Without him I would fall.
When I am sad, to him I go,
No other one can cheer me so;
When I am sad he makes me glad,
He's my Friend.
Jesus is all the world to me,
My friend in trials sore;
I go to him for blessings, and
He gives them o'er and o'er.
He sends the sunshine and the rain,
He sends the harvest's golden grain,
Sunshine and rain, harvest of grain,
He's my Friend.
Jesus is all the world to me,
And true to him I'll be;
Oh, how could I this Friend deny,
When he's so true to me?
Following him I know I'm right,
He watches o'er me day and night;
Following him, by day and night,
He's my Friend.
Jesus is all the world to me,
I want no better friend;
I trust him now, I'll trust him when
Life's fleeting days shall end.
Beautiful life with such a Friend;
Beautiful life that has no end;
Eternal life, eternal joy,
He's my Friend.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 17 (UPI) -- U.S. President Barack Obama said Saturday Congress must work together to extend middle-class tax cuts and avoid the so-called fiscal cliff.
"Four years after the worst economic crisis of our lifetimes, our economy is growing again and creating jobs. But we have much more to do. Our task now is to build on that progress. Because this nation only succeeds when we've got a growing, thriving middle class," Obama said in his weekly Internet and radio address.
"Soon, we face a very clear deadline that requires us to make some big decisions on jobs and taxes; on investments and deficits. Both parties voted to set this deadline. And I believe both parties can work together to make these decisions in a balanced and responsible way."
The president said there are "two pathways available" when it comes to taxes.
"If Congress fails to act by the end of the year, then everybody's taxes automatically go up -- including the 98 percent of Americans who make less than $250,000 a year. Our economy can't afford that right now. You can't afford that right now. And nobody wants that to happen.
"The other path is for Congress to pass a law right away to prevent a tax hike on the first $250,000 of anyone's income. That means all Americans -- including the wealthiest Americans -- get a tax cut. And 98 percent of Americans, and 97 percent of all small-business owners, won't see their income taxes go up a single dime," the president said.
"All we need is for Republicans in the House to come on board," he said, noting the Senate already has passed a bill and Democrats in the House are ready to pass one, too.
"We shouldn't hold the middle class hostage while Congress debates tax cuts for the wealthy. Let's begin our work by actually doing what we all agree on. Let's keep taxes low for the middle class. And let's get it done soon -- so we can give families and businesses some good news going into the holiday season."
Obama said he sat down with congressional leaders Friday to discuss ways to reduce the deficit, strengthen the economy and protect the middle class. He said the meeting was "constructive" and everyone agreed "we need to come together, find solutions and take action as soon as possible."

our approach Heron Wines believes that delicious wines should be an unalienable right. Yes, an overstatement, but we really think that high-quality, approachable wine should not come at a huge price. For over a dozen years, we have heard from wine lovers from around the globe that we consistently exceed their expectations for quality, style, and balance. geography & appellation Great wines may come from anywhere, limited only by our imagination. Heron's original wine was a groundbreaking Merlot from St. Chinian in the Southwest of France. Today we make wine in California, France and Spain; and our focus is on the purity of fruit. We go where the best grapes are grown in order to maximize the natural characteristics of the varietal. While most of our wines could carry more specific appellations, we choose to focus less on advertising the locations and more on what we do (or don't do) with them. The benefit is wines that are more consistent, balanced and complex. vineyards We don't own any vineyards. This allows us to spend our money where it matters (on exceptional grapes and barrels, not mortgages.) By establishing both short and long-term contracts with our growers, we have the benefits of consistency and flexibility. We are picky - not only about the vineyard locations, but also that the vineyards are managed by people as passionate about quality as we are. Whenever possible, we work with vineyards that are certified or managed organically, biodynamically, or at the least, sustainably. Most of our vineyards are dry-farmed, and we generally prefer old-vine, higher elevation, marine-influenced vineyards with moderate climates, allowing for slower maturation of intensely flavorful grapes. winemaking We firmly believe in the "less is more" philosophy. As winemakers, our job is to allow the best qualities of the fruit to shine through. Our grapes are picked at peak intensity then treated gently throughout the winemaking process. This often means hand-harvesting, hand-sorting, and extended maceration for the reds. We are one of the few wineries in California not using malolactic fermentation on Chardonnay because we prefer the natural bright acidity of the grape. We use French oak barrels exclusively for all of our wines including some we make at a cooperage using sustainably harvested old-growth oak from France's Tronçais Forest. Our goal is to make wines of character and soul rather than sameness, not according to a formula or projected return on investment. In the end, we believe that smooth elegance and lush complexity are what wine lovers appreciate most. label design People often ask about our award-winning label design. It is an abstract version of a creature holding an amphora -- our version of Bacchus, the Greek God of Wine. This art is inspired by Henri Matisse's Paper Cut-out series and a painting in Laely's living room by a renowned Danish artist, Tenka Gammelgaard. inspiration Laely Heron's unconventional upbringing in Africa, Asia, Europe and the US may explain the wanderlust that has led to her passion for international winemaking. Her family may not have been wine drinkers, but they instilled within her an early thirst for life lived to the last drop. Her free-spirited mother and mining engineer father took the family on an odyssey from mining town to mining town around the world. By the time Laely entered high school back in the US, she had a taste for different cultures, languages and street food from Algiers to Cape Town and from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore. Laely's desire to travel and her natural curiosity about what the world has to offer led her to another series of adventures including studying winemaking in Bordeaux, opening a restaurant and importing wine into Denmark, and studying to become a Master of Wine. In this entrepreneurial spirit, Laely started Heron Wines in 1994, with little more than a credit card, a "business plan" sketched out on a napkin and the idea of making great wine at a great price. To this day, Heron makes distinctive, delicious wines from the best places on earth. Read less

Very few consumer-targeted trucks have ever come with stacks. Today's Nice Price or Crack Pipe Dodge D150 L'il Red Express Truck is just so exhaustively featured, but is its price stacked against it?
Toyota's 7M-GTE engine has a reputation for going through head gaskets like they're going out of style. That didn't stop 65% of you from voting yesterday's so-equipped old school Supra a Nice Price win. Apparently clean editions of that car are not going out of style anytime soon.
You know what once did go out of style was Dodge's once and future king, cop-motor pickup, due to its thirsty nature. But now, proven by today's 1979 D150 L'il Red Express Truck, it's back.
Debuting in early 1978 as a performance truck, the special D150 rode on a short, 115-inch wheelbase and was only available with a wood-trimmed Utiline bed. Garish gold artwork adorned both doors and the gate, and most noteworthy, twin functional exhaust stacks from the step plates just aft of the cab. At over 6,000 pounds it was exempt from many of the emissions requirements of the time
This Li'l Red Truck, being a '79, is slightly detuned from the debut year, but it still rocks a truck-grade 360 topped by cop engine intake and an 850 cfm 4 bbl Carter ThermoQuad gas sucker. Changes to the second, and last, model year include replacement of the hot cam with a standard 360 edition, an 85 MPH speedo, and the adoption of catalytic converters to meet tightening emissions standards.
Backing up the engine is an A-727 Loadflite with a 2,500 RPM stall converter and a 440 V8 valvebody, That sends power back to a 3.55 rear end. Adding a little show to the go, Dodge dressed the engine bay up with chrome plated valve covers, dual snorkel air cleaner, and those crazy two and a half inch exhaust stacks covered by equally shiny heat shields.
Obviously, owing to its name, these trucks all came in red. The wood trim is solid oak and the interiors could be had in either lurid red or black. This almost as-new D150 went black and never went back. It also sports the stock buckets, but they're so American ass wide, you might mistake them for a bench. Everything on the truck, from the inside, to under the hood and the exterior looks to be in amazing shape. The ad claims but 42,000 miles total and, owing to an oil change record, only 2,500 of that has been added in the last 25 years.
Today, the L'il Red Express truck may appear garish and perhaps even cartoonish, but it is without a doubt a significant representative of '70s performance metal, and while be-stacked, be-chromed, and be-oaked, it belongs in the historical records. The question of course, is whether this survivor should belong to a new owner for its $18,998 price.
Before you decide, and just to add fuel to the fire, here's another one on eBay that's asking considerably more. In fact, these trucks were not cheap to begin with, adding 20% to the cost of a base D150. Here now, 34 years later, you need to determine what premium one might command. Do you this this L'il Red Express is worth $18,998? Or, does that price make it l'il too expensive?
You decide!

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. – Tied at 5-5 going into the bottom of the ninth and with runners on first and third first baseman Steve Ambrosino would drive in what would be the game-winning run to give Western New England University (14-6) a 6-5 come from behind win over baseball (10-9) Wednesday afternoon Trelease Park.
The deciding run would cap off the six-run rally which started in the bottom half of the sixth inning. In that frame the Golden Bears would score three runs to tie the score at 3-3. UMass Boston would tack on two-runs in the form of a Jack DeBiase (Prospect, Conn.) two-run homer in the top of the eighth to make it 5-3 in favor of the Beacons.
Western New England would then tie the score at 5-5 in the bottom half of that inning first on a sacrifice fly then a single to left field. In the top half of the ninth, the Beacons would get runners on second and third with only one out on the scoreboard. However the Golden Bears would get the final two outs of the inning, which gave them the window of opportunity they needed to steal the win from the Beacons.
Prior to the back-and-forth final 3 ½ innings the Beacons were very much in control of Wednesday's non-conference contest. Western New England, who received votes on the most recent New England Intercollegiate Baseball Association (NEIBA) regional poll, was held hitless through five innings by junior righty Michael Boughton (New Britain, Conn.). Through 7 2/3 innings the Connecticut native allowed five runs on five hits, only three of which were earned, while also striking out three and did not allow a walk all afternoon.
Boughton would leave the game in the eighth and would hand the ball over to closer Jeff Thomas (Redwood City, Calif.). Thomas would retire one batter and allowed just one hit with the game-winning run scoring on an error.
DeBiase's two-run blast in the eighth capped off a 3-for-4 afternoon for the freshman catcher. Designated hitter Matt Consiglio (Southbury, Conn.) continued to swing his hot bat as the junior finished the day 3-for-4 with an RBI and a walk. Jamill Moquette (Boston, Mass.) and Nick Grassetti (Agawam, Mass.) each had two hits in the contest while Collin Keefer (Charlotte, N.C.) and Mark McCormack (Shelton, Conn.) each finished with one hit.
On the afternoon the Beacons combined for 14 hits, but stranded a total of 10 base runners, which allowed the Golden Bears to battle their way back in the later innings. Western New England ended the day with seven hits, with only three of their six-runs scored marked down as earned.
Jeff Schult and Matt Anthonis were the only two Golden Bears to record multiple hits in the non-conference game. Mike Lawlor earned the win, his first of the year, after going the final 1 2/3 innings.
Baseball will continue their busy week tomorrow when they travel to Gordon College for a 3 p.m. non-conference game, their fourth of the week.

New Mayor May Reshape L.A. With Help From Old One
Over the course of the recently completed L.A. city election campaign, former Mayor Richard Riordan endorsed no fewer than three candidates for his old job – Austin Beutner, Kevin James and Wendy Greuel. The only thing they have in common is that none of them is Eric Garcetti. Yet after searching for the last several months for almost any conceivable alternative to Garcetti, Riordan might now end up being the new mayor's most valuable asset.
Because Garcetti was so successful in painting Greuel's financial backing from the city's public employee unions as a negative for her candidacy, he secured unexpected levels of support from moderate and conservative voters across the city. Despite her endorsements from most leading business organizations, pre-election polling showed that Angelenos believed by more than a 2-1 margin that Greuel would prioritize the interests of organized labor above those of the entire city. The election ultimately became a referendum on Greuel and, more specifically, on the perception that she would be beholden to city employees if elected.
That impetus for Garcetti's victory now provides him with a unique opportunity to fundamentally alter the city's budgetary landscape, if he chooses to take advantage of it. When the incoming mayor first meets with the heads of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers and other city unions, he will do so with the knowledge that not only was he elected without their support but, in fact, was able to win decisively over their active opposition. He doesn't owe them a thing – and both he and the union leadership know it.
While Garcetti understands that union contracts are certainly not the only contributing factor to the city's budget mess, he also understands both the substantive and symbolic importance of moving aggressively on this front. This is where Riordan's ongoing presence in local politics becomes so important to Garcetti. Late last year, Riordan and his allies decided not to move forward with a ballot initiative for this spring that would have dramatically reduced the city's pension obligations. Although their decision to pull back was a result of their difficulties in securing signatures to qualify their measure, in retrospect the delay might have been a blessing in disguise for both Riordan and Garcetti.
Pension reform
Had last week's ballot included a pension reform initiative, both candidates would have campaigned vehemently to its likely defeat. Both Garcetti and Greuel had quickly opposed the measure when Riordan first announced it, and their continued opposition would have blurred the key distinction between them that became such a valuable asset to Garcetti in the weeks leading up to the election. But if Riordan decides to renew his efforts and take on another initiative campaign, Mayor Garcetti will have much more flexibility in his response than he did as a candidate. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa was noticeably measured when asked about the proposal last year. A similarly ambivalent reaction from Garcetti could be of great help to Riordan the next time around, the prospect of which will hover over the next several rounds of budget negotiations.

Dropshipping means you "sell" goods to an end customer, and kajoinhk sends the goods directly to your customer without you handling the goods. This means that the end customer is the consignee of the package being sent from China, and this means your customer is also considered to be the "importer" of the goods. Thus, your customer bears full responsibility for importing the goods and paying any applicable taxes, duties, and other charges. Make sure you research the situation and inform your customers clearly in advance!
Responsibilities small print:
- In this system, you as the Dropship Vendor are solely responsible for informing your Dropship Customer about the China origin of the goods, the shipping method, the import declaration used, the import process, any taxes or charges that are likely to be charged or could be charged, and the mechanism for receiving goods and paying applicable charges. You are solely responsible for establishing and communicating whatever delivery terms, warranty, guarantees, or other contracts that you wish to establish with your customers; in these matters kajoinhk accepts no liability.
- When dropshipping via eBay selling, Amazon selling, or any similar third party sales platform, you must additionally abide by their terms and conditions for clarifying the delivery/import process for your customers and clearly communicating/advertising your terms before the sale.
- In an exception case where a Dropship Customer refuses to receive goods, refuses to pay taxes, or otherwise fails to comply with the import process, you as the Dropship Vendor bear full responsibility for resolving the issue directly with your Dropship Customer. In dropship cases kajoinhk as the Dropship Wholesaler will be deemed to have fulfilled all responsibility for delivering the order, and kajoinhk will not accept any liability in such cases. In practical terms this means that in such a failed delivery case, you would have to decide whether or not to compensate your customer, but kajoinhk would not offer you any form of refund.
- If you consistently fail to inform your customers properly about their import responsibilities, leading to delivery exceptions, we reserve the right to close your account and cancel any outstanding orders.

The John Smoltz Rule and Lars Launches At Last
I don't have a vote, but in my opinion, John Smoltz is a no-doubt Hall of Famer.
(Photo courtesy of Kelly O'Connor)
He's the only pitcher in big league history with at least 200 wins and 150 saves, as Smoltz finished his 21-year career with a 213-155 record, 154 saves, and a 3.33 ERA. He ranks 18th all-time in strikeouts (3,084), won a Cy Young Award in 1996, earned eight All-Star selections, and was one of the most dominant post-season pitchers in history, going 15-4 with a 2.67 ERA.
If that's not enough, Smoltz also was personally responsible for a change in minor league policy while pitching for the Pawtucket Red Sox in his final professional season.
In 2009, the Boston Red Sox signed Smoltz hoping that he could rebound from shoulder surgery and give their rotation a boost in the second half of the season. The former Atlanta Braves ace made his first minor league rehab start at Single-A Greenville in late May, and reached Pawtucket on June 6th, where 12,299 fans turned out at McCoy Stadium to see what was left in his 42-year-old arm.
But there was serious behind-the-scenes drama before Smoltz made it to the mound that night against the Durham Bulls.
John arrived at McCoy Stadium carrying boxes of major league baseballs and notified the PawSox that he wanted to use them instead of the International League ball. That led to a flurry of phone calls between the PawSox, Boston Red Sox, Durham Bulls, umpires, and International League President Randy Mobley who was not in favor of giving Smoltz preferential treatment.
"It's my position that everyone playing the game should be using the same equipment," Mobley said. "If you're using two different baseballs, even though they have the same specifications it simply goes against my grain and what I believe my responsibility is to uphold the integrity of the game."
Consider the can of worms that would be opened if Smoltz were allowed to use major league baseballs. Should pitchers from the other team be allowed to use them? What if any of the hitters objected? But after considering all opinions, Mobley reluctantly agreed to allow it.
"Teams at the Triple-A level want to accommodate the major league rehabbing players as much as they possibly can," Mobley said. "I'm a little bit out there on my own on this issue, but for lack of a better term, 'It is what it is.'"
Major league baseballs are more expensive than International League balls by $40 a dozen, but aside from the price, there does not appear to be much of a difference.
"In speaking with the Rawlings folks, they tell me that they're made to the same specifications," Mobley said. "It's also my understanding that in the winding process, one of the yarns might be a little bit different. Some maintain that the seams on one ball are a little higher than the seams on the other ball. They're made in two different plants, but in essence they are the same."

That night, Smoltz threw 6 innings of 1-hit, 1-run baseball in a win over Durham, and in 3 rehab starts for Pawtucket, he went 1-1 with a 3.38 ERA. Unfortunately, he was a disaster after being promoted to Boston, going 2-5 with an 8.33 ERA in 8 starts before being released. John finished the 2009 season – and his career – with St. Louis, going 1-3 with a 4.26 ERA.
The poor finish didn't tarnish a great career, but Mobley admits that his opinion of Smoltz was impacted by John's insistence on using major league balls in a minor league game.
"I was disappointed that it was as important to him as it obviously was," Mobley said. "To me, it seems that when you take that position, you think that you're a little bit different than somebody else. If you take that another step, you think that you're a little bit better than somebody else if you deserve special accommodations. I don't think there is any question that he is probably a Hall of Famer, but from the chair that I sit in, I certainly respect that but I'm not sure that I should treat him any differently on the field than anybody else."
Following the 2009 season, minor league baseball and the MLB Commissioner's Office came to an agreement on what should be called "The John Smoltz Rule." It stipulates that a pitcher can use the major league ball while on a rehab assignment in a minor league game. Other pitchers in the same game are not permitted to use the MLB ball.
That leaves an obvious question: What about rehabbing hitters? Have any requested having the opportunity to hit the major league ball?
"No, I have not experienced that one yet," Mobley said. "But that was one of the scenarios that I laid out there when arguing that we should not go this route. That might be what we see next, but fortunately to this point, we have not."

After back-to-back rainouts, the PawSox were able to get in a doubleheader in Columbus on Wednesday night. Pawtucket won the first game 7-2, before the Clippers earned a split by beating the PawSox in the nightcap, 8-3.
The good news for the PawSox is that Lars Anderson's home run drought ended after 127 at-bats as he belted a 3-run opposite field HR in the opener.
(Photo courtesy of Kelly O'Connor)
I've been saying for weeks that once Lars "got off the schneid" and hit his first HR, he would probably hit several in a short period of time. After his home run in Wednesday's opener, I tweeted the following:
"Lars Anderson leads the IL in walks and has a .403 OBP, but hasn't hit for power yet this year. I bet he hits a few HR this week."
I don't claim to be Nostradamus, but sure enough, Anderson drilled a towering HR to right field in his first at-bat of the nightcap.
The timing was good since his close pal Ryan Kalish was in the dugout to greet him after both home runs. Kalish left Columbus for Ft. Myers on Thursday morning to intensify rehab on his injured left shoulder. Ryan told me that he still hopes to play this year. It's been 28 days since the injury. His original goal was to return to action in one month.
The PawSox face Columbus again on Thursday night at 6:35. I hope you'll join us for radio coverage beginning with the pre-game show at 6:20 on the PawSox radio network and pawsox.com.
I'd love to hear from you. The address is firstname.lastname@example.com.

In the Absence of International Consequences, High Court of Appeal Upholds Politically Motivated Sentences
Against Leading Human Rights and Political Leaders
Joint Statement Bahrain Center for Human Rights and Gulf Center for Human Rights September 5th, 2012
On September 4th, 2012, the High Court of Appeal in Bahrain ruled to uphold all of the sentences against the so-called "accused conspirators" in the case of the 13 human rights defenders and political leaders serving time in prison and the 7 tried in absentia.
Before looking into the details of the flawed appeal process, it is crucial to note that according to reports and statements made by international human rights organizations, these prisoners of conscience should not have been imprisoned to begin with, let alone made to go through several prolonged judicial processes. The Bahrain Center for Human Rights and the Gulf Center for Human Rights have previously noted that these processes are used as a tool for judicial harassment and used to buy time and keep these prisoners of conscience in prison for longer periods.
The BICI report in November 2011 clearly stated that all charges against defendants relating to freedom of speech or freedom of expression must be dropped. This decision is a clear rejection of that principle, and a serious violation of human rights. All of the charges brought against these defendants are related to freedom of expression, and must be thrown out.
All sentences against the prisoners of conscience were upheld, as well as charges such as breaching the Constitution and participating in a plot to overthrow the regime and having intelligence contact with foreign entities. For case background please refer to: bahrainrights.hopto.org/en/node/5272
Three of the prisoners of conscience, namely Abdullah Isa Mahroos, Mohammed Hasan Jawad and Salah Abdullah AlKhawaja, were acquitted of the charge of participating in plot to overthrow the regime. Their sentences, though, were not amended.
Hasan Radhi, one of the leading lawyers involved in this case, spoke during a press conference today, and pointed out many of the outstanding violations that characterized the appeal process:
1. Not all of the defense witnesses were heard. 2. The confessions that were extracted under torture were not thrown out. 3. There was no investigation into the torture allegations, which were detailed in some of the statements made by leading human rights defender Abdulhadi Al-Khawaja and other prisoners of conscience at the beginning of the appeal process. The failure to investigate these allegations implicates the officials who were made aware of these violations. 4. The last several hearings were held in secrecy, with a gag order on the press () 5. The court appointed new lawyers after the defendants requested their own lawyers to withdraw from the process in protest of the deeply flawed process. The new lawyers were assigned against the will of the defendants, which was a violation of their constitutional rights. 6. The appeal process was unusually swift.
Statements from Governments:
President Obama made clear in a speech on 19th May, 2011, when referring to Bahrain, that "you can't have a real dialogue when parts of the peaceful opposition are in jail." Link: whitehouse.gov
In a statement yesterday, Acting Deputy Spokesperson for the White House stated that the US is "troubled" by the appeal verdict: Link: state.gov
UK "disappointed" at verdicts in Bahrain activists' cases: Link: fco.gov.uk
The BCHR and GCHR welcome the statement from Jeppe Kofod, the foreign policy spokesperson for the Social Democrats – Denmark's ruling party – who stated in regards to the court's decision that "It is deeply tragic and deplorable. I had hoped the Bahraini rule had deliberated further and released Al-Khawaja. It is deeply disappointing, and we need to think about what kind of sanctions we can take against Bahrain." Link: i-m-s.dk
The BCHR and GCHR have previously stated that the continuation of human rights violations in Bahrain are a result of international silence and a general lack of consequences for the government in Bahrain. A discussion on possible economic and/or diplomatic sanctions will have a huge influence on preserving human rights in Bahrain.
The Danish Foreign Minister, Villy Søvndal, was quoted in the Washington Post as saying "the decision to uphold the life sentence "very disappointing" and said he would discuss possible further international action from "the very broad range of countries that in the spring supported Denmark in the demand for the release of Al-Khawaja and the other human rights and democracy fighters in Bahrain." Link: washingtonpost.com
Statements from International and Local Human Rights Organizations:
The Human Rights Watch report on the original trial process and charges: hrw.org Joe Stork of Human Rights Watch stated that the initial court ruling "only compounds the travesty of justice that has characterized this case from the beginning." Their report calls attention to the fact that all of the charges were related to the defendants exercising their right to peaceful expression, association, and assembly.
The international community was quick to respond to the court's announcement. Amnesty International called these defendants prisoners of conscience, and demanded their immediate release. Link: amnesty.org
Human Rights First: Reform Claims Shattered as Bahraini Court Confirms Sentences Against 13 Leading Dissidents Link: humanrightsfirst.org
The Bahrain Youth Society for Human Rights: Appeal Court Upholds Previous Sentence of 20 Prominent Activists and Opposition Leaders. Link: byshr.org
In May 2012, an appeal signed by more than 100 organizations called to end the assault on freedom of speech, and to free all detained human rights defenders and citizens. Link: ifex.org
The BCHR and GCHR call on the US administration as well as other governments that have influence in Bahrain including the UK government, the EU and leading human rights organizations to:
1. Call for the immediate release of all prisoners of conscience in Bahrain. 2. Increase the pressure on the Government of Bahrain to stop the ongoing daily human rights violations as well as escalating attacks on human rights defenders. 3. Put pressure on the Government in Bahrain to allow journalists and human rights organizations access to the country to document human rights violations and to report on the ongoing situation. 4. Immediately stop all arms sales to the Government of Bahrain due to the continuous human rights violations. 5. Initiate a discussion on international consequences, including but not limited to diplomatic and economic sanctions, towards the Government of Bahrain due to the continuation of human rights violations.
The BCHR and GCHR urge the United Nations to:
1. Hold a special session on Bahrain at the Human Rights Council, and a session to follow up on the implementation or lack thereof of the recommendations of the BICI report. 2. Call for a follow up fact-finding mission to look into the widespread and continuous human rights violations that have taken place since the issuing the BICI report November 2011. 3. Put pressure on the Government of Bahrain to accept requests for visits from the UN special rapporteurs.

huge success

[February 03, 2014]
Send a link to a friend
It takes a lot of people to
pull off this fundraiser every year. There are those who do
the planning and organization, get the donations for the silent
auction, and make the signature sausages, even before the big day.
Then there are those who man
the various stations. From those in the kitchen cooking
sausage, to the pancake makers who made more than 4,000 pancakes
this year, to the servers on the dine-in line and the carryout
room, to those who clear tables, wash trays, refill coffees and
carry around pans of sausage and pancakes for free "refills," this
is a fantastic example of people coming together to do something
