Women's Health
It is important to participate in regular health screenings because screenings are designed to detect the presence of a disease. By getting screened regularly, your doctor may be able to catch a disease in the early stages. Catching a disease in the early stages has a better chance of recovery than in the later stages, so make appointments with your doctor regularly. It could save your life.
For women, it is important to schedule regular visits to see a gynecologist. Most health providers agree that a female should have their first pelvic exam in the first few years after becoming sexually active, or when they turn 21, which ever comes first. Yearly visits are important to be sure everything is developing normally, to prevent pregnancy or infection, or to deal with a problem such as missed periods, signs of pain, or signs of infection.

To schedule an appointment, call (309) 298-1888 between the hours of 7:30am-5:00pm.
What to expect when you are scheduling an exam:
Annual Gynecological Exam: An annual exam consists of a general physical exam (including a breast exam), update of life and work situation and family history, review of your health history, update of current medications, herbs, and supplements, the need for medication refills, evaluation of need for health screening tests based on age and personal and family history, and an update on immunizations. Annual exam is required if using birth control medication.
Pap Test:Also known as a pap smear, the pap test checks for changes in the cells of the cervix. This test can detect an infection, abnormal cervical cells and cervical cancer. If caught early, the chance of curing cervical cancer is very high.
Mammogram: A mammogram is used to aid in the diagnosis of breast diseases in women. This procedure takes about 15 minutes, and during this time an X-ray is taken of each compressed breast. A mammogram is used to detect changes in the skin, clusters of calcium or signs of breast cancer that are too small to be detected during a clinical breast exam.

Breast Self Exam: When breast cancer is detected early, it has the best chances of being cured. Examining your breasts is an important way to find breast cancer at its early stages. Not every cancer can be found by a breast self-exam, but it is important to know your body, so you are able to notice changes that should be checked out by a doctor. Breast self-exams should be done once per month, a few days after your period ends when your breasts are least likely to be tender and swollen.
Clinical Breast Exam: A clinical breast exam is a visual and physical examination of the breasts done by a health care provider. The exams involve checking the look and feel of the breasts and underarm for any changes.

STI Screening: For sexually active females under the age of 25, it is recommended they have an annual STI screening, because of the high incidence of Gonorrhea and Chlamydia at this age. When you are at your annual exam, ask your health provider if they conduct regular STI screenings when the pap smear is done.Additional cost will be assessed.

Screening Recommendations:
Cervical cancer screening guidelines in the US are issued by three major organizations: the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF), the American Cancer Society (ACS) and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG). Guidelines issued by these groups since 2002 are specific with respect to starting age, stopping age, screening frequency and groups for whom the standard recommendations do not apply. A US survey of clinician's responses to screening vignettes, however, indicated that fewer than 25 percent would recommend screening consistent with the care agreed upon by all the guidelines; choices representing overuse were most frequent.
Starting Age: All three organizations strongly recommend screening for cervical cancer. 2009 ACOG guidelines recommend initiating screening at age 21; older guidelines from the USPSTF and ACS recommend initiating screening at age 21or three years after the onset of sexual activity, whichever comes first.
Frequency: The USPSTF recommends screening at least every three years; ACS advocates annual screening (biennial if using liquid based testing) and ACOG biennial for women under age 30 and reducing the frequency to every two to three years for women aged 30 and older who have had three consecutive normal Pap tests, or no more than every three years if they also are tested for HPV DNA.
ACS specifies certain risk groups that may require more frequent screening: HIV infection, immunosuppression, or in utero DES exposure. ACOG recommends annual screening for women who have been treated in the past for CIN2, CIN3 or cervical cancer.
We suggest initiating Pap smear screening at intervals of every one to two years for average risk women less than 30 years old, lengthening the screening interval to three years for average risk women at age 30 after three consecutive negative smears. Alternatively, average risk women age 30 years and older may be screened with a combination of Pap smear and HPV testing at intervals no more frequently than every three years if both initial tests are negative. Women with increased risk for cervical cancer (eg a history of DES exposure, CIN II/III or cervical cancer, HIV infection or otherwise immunosuppressed) should have more frequent screenings.

Worlds Apart Lyrics
We're heading down a windy road and always facing toe to toe I need to know what's real is mine. I maybe hate the things you say but surely won't be pushed away you're half of me I'm here to stay. We are two worlds apart I'm hoping ours will soon collide. I love you from afar you truly are my world my life. You're backing up and pulling out I'm swearing that I'm holding out for you my eye could never stray. You're scared of this I understand and maybe for a reason since you've only been wronged before. but I swear. I swear if it's the last thing that I ever do I'll prove that I'm enamored with every single piece of you.

CULLOWHEE, N.C. – The King University men's track and field team had a solid day of competition at the Benyon Catamount Classic on the campus of Western Carolina University in its final tune-up before the Conference Carolinas Outdoor Championship on April 26.
The Tornado set seven personal records by seven different athletes en route to a sixth-place finish out of 13 competing teams. Justin Newring headlined the Tornado runners with a pair of second-place performances in the 200 and 400 meter events, including a personal record time of 48.48 seconds in the 400. Reggie Warren was King's top finisher in the 100 meter dash, placing fourth with a time of 11.03 seconds.
Taylor Dix and Tanner Cook each set personal records in the 800 meter run with times of 2:00.23 and 2:03.50, respectively. In the 5000 meter run, Jordan Smith finished sixth in 16:04.05 to earn valuable points for the Tornado.
Andy Lai set a personal best mark with a throw of 38.51 meters in the discus. He finished in 10th place in the event. Jeremy Stamper had a toss of 12.28 meters in the shot put which was good for seventh overall. Three different tornado set personal records in the hammer throw, led by Tom Lamkin's throw of 39.97 meters. Stamper finished one spot behind Lamkin in seventh with a throw of 39.68 meters, while Johnathan Dunn also set a personal best with his throw of 32.17 meters.
King also had a handful of competitors travel to the Tennessee Relays on Friday afternoon, which were hosted by the University of Tennessee. The event was headlined by Brent Swiney, who set a new King record and attained and NCAA provisional qualifying time in the 1,500 meter run with a time of 3:52.25. He broke his own school record by over two seconds that he set at the Raleigh Relays on March 27.
The Tornado will have next weekend off before competing for the conference title at Lees-McRae College on Saturday, April 26. King finished fourth at the event a year ago.

Episode 1 | 1h 21m 48s
JAZZ begins in New Orleans, nineteenth century America's most cosmopolitan city, where the sound of marching bands, Italian opera, Caribbean rhythms, and minstrel shows fills the streets with a richly diverse musical culture. Here, in the 1890s, African-American musicians create a new music out of these ingredients by mixing in ragtime syncopations and the soulful feeling of the blues.

Sexy sexy diseases make the Wesen horny, in last night's episode of Grimm. This recap is going to be short and sweet — just like the episode "Quills." Which, surprisingly, is not about the horny Marquis de Sade. But a horny porcupine person.
Sticking to the monster-of-the-week rhythm, Grimm's big bad this week was a disease. A scratchy Wesen disease passed through breaking skin. Once infected, the fairy tale creature gets hot, really hot — like "Let's do it on your family's old picnic basket right here, right now" hot.
Then the infected Wesen breaks out into movie boils, becomes a zombie rage monster and tries to kill you.
Pharmacy Fox and Pilates Wolf go on an adorable date in the woods and start making eyes at each other. But their lovely G-rated romance takes a turn for the hard PG when Pharmacy Fox is infected with fairytale ebola. Look, at one point Nick mentioned the actual name of the virus... but then EDIT: the coroner called it "like ebola" so it's fairytale ebola now. Moving on, Pharmacy Fox gets the sick heats in a big way and attacks Pilates Wolf, and it's adorable. Monroe saves her life, and it's lovely.
That's really all that happens. And that's OK, we're perfectly fine with spreading on a little lovey dovey character-building between these two. Because later, when they kill Pharmacy Fox (and you know they are going to), Monroe can turn into a rage monster and we will all understand why. But for now, let these two kids have their cuddles and lazy yawns in the sun. It's nice.
Meanwhile, this lion guy showed up. At least I think it's a lion? He's probably important, but who knows because this show refuses to plot out the politics of the seven families of fairytown. And when this lion (??) face popped up on screen all I could think was that, somewhere in Portland there is an anteater Wesen. I must see this.
EDIT: Some people are saying he's like a horse. A HORSE! Ha! Do you think he sleeps/poops standing up?

A datastore identifier is a simple name of a database object, such as a column, table, index, or view, and is composed of a sequence of letters, digits, and underscores ( _ ) that represents it's name. DataNucleus allows users to specify the names of tables, columns, indexes etc but if the user doesn't specify these DataNucleus will generate names. Generation of identifier names is controlled by an IdentifierFactory, and DataNucleus provides a default implementation. You can provide your own IdentifierFactory plugin to give your own preferred naming if so desired. You set the IdentifierFactory by setting the PMF property datanucleus.identifierFactory . Set it to the symbolic name of the factory you want to use. JDO doesnt define what the names of datastore identifiers should be but DataNucleus provides the following factories for your use.
In describing the different possible naming conventions available out of the box with DataNucleus we'll use the following example
class MyClass { String myField1; Collection<MyElement> elements1; // Using join table Collection<MyElement> elements2; // Using foreign-key } class MyElement { String myElementField; MyClass myClass2; }
This became the default for JDO persistence from DataNucleus v2.x onwards and changes a few things over the previous "datanucleus1" factory, attempting to make the naming more concise and consistent (we retain "datanucleus1" for backwards compatibility).
Using the same example above, the rules in this IdentifierFactory mean that, assuming that the user doesnt specify any <column> elements :-
This was the default in DataNucleus v1.x for JDO persistence and provided a reasonable default naming of datastore identifiers using the class and field names as its basis.
Using the example above, the rules in this IdentifierFactory mean that, assuming that the user doesnt specify any <column> elements :-
The IdentifierFactory "jpa" aims at providing a naming policy consistent with the "JPA" specification.
Using the same example above, the rules in this IdentifierFactory mean that, assuming that the user doesnt specify any <column> elements :-
This IdentifierFactory exists for backward compatibility with JPOX 1.2.0. If you experience changes of schema identifiers when migrating from JPOX 1.2.0 to datanucleus, you should give this one a try.
Schema compatibility between JPOX 1.2.0 and datanucleus had been broken e.g. by the number of characters used in hash codes when truncating identifiers: this has changed from 2 to 4.
The underlying datastore will define what case of identifiers are accepted. By default, DataNucleus will capitalise names (assuming that the datastore supports it). You can however influence the case used for identifiers. This is specifiable with the PMF property datanucleus.identifier.case , having the following values
Please be aware that some datastores only support UPPERCASE or lowercase identifiers and so setting this parameter may have no effect if your database doesn't support that option.

Bateman calls 'The Change-Up' 'garbage,' critics agree
Jason Bateman, star of "The Change-Up," brings some refreshing honesty to movie promotion. Or (more likely), he's just using some of the ol' reverse psychology.
"It's crap," he said of his body-switching comedy during a recent visit to "The Daily Show." "The movie's garbage."
But even after trash-talking the flick to Jon Stewart, the actor assures viewers of R-rated laughs. "Here's what I'm going to promise you, is that while it is a tired - some would say, pleasantly familiar - premise...our obligation is to please you post-switch."
Bateman's co-star Ryan Reynolds has been pulling the same shenanigans. In an expletive-laced promo, Reynolds entices viewers: "Body switching is a pretty stupid f---g idea, but the movie's funny. If they go, they'll laugh their d-– off."
Whatever the actors' angle, so far critics agree that "The Change-Up" is not good. According to movie review site Rotten Tomatoes, at the time of this post only 22 percent of reviewers found it "fresh."

Joyful things:
Jays in the garden (I only found out they were jays last year, but they're wild like something out of a zoo, or something that got lost on its way to Africa).
Brightly coloured fine leather gloves. My current ones are a sort of acid green and even the children covet them.
Relics, the grislier the better, but especially whole preserved digits, limbs, or indeed saints.
Orange spine Penguin PG Wodehouse books, inherited from my parents.
Kenneth from 30 Rock.
Having enough scissors.
Béchamel with spinach and a pinch of nutmeg or mace. I had this in a pasta gratin last night in front of that ludicrous Richard III documentary with a nice glass of cheap red wine.
Spotting tiny dirty brown mice, all busy and surprising, on the Central Line tracks.
And getting divebombed by packs of delinquent parakeets.
Lemon curd.
The smell of stables, straw and turpentine and leather and dust and warm horse.
The smell of sugar beet on damp North Yorkshire autumn air, even though it is actually an awful smell.
Or the smell of After Eights on cold North Yorkshire winter nights, which is wholly delicious.
The smell of Soho on hot summer evenings before it all kicks off: spice and posh cologne and beer and hair product and hot tarmac.
Mars Attacks.
3/4 length sleeves.
The produce tent at village shows. And the tea tent, actually. And the 'dog that looks most like its owner' class.
Vuillard interiors.
Christine Ferber rhubarb jam.
Vetiver (especially Miller Harris Vetiver Bourbon).
Warm pub gin and tonics with the barest sliver of melted ice and a crappy half slice of lemon.
With a packet of Walkers Cheese and Onion. (Oh god I want this so much now).
Parrot tulips.
Patent leather.
Sunday breakfast at Midi market, Moroccan pancake with honey and a glass of sweet mint tea for €1,25.
The word 'baleful'.
Working at my kitchen table. I have a perfectly good office, but I just can't resist. This morning the light was just beautiful, with a tiny dusting of snow and a fat pigeon making its rounds. Here is a terrible picture of it.
Mexican wrestling outfits.
I would love to hear yours, ideally avoiding your top five or ten. The weirder the better.

The Conversion to Digital Television Is Going To Be Unpleasant
Early in 2009, regular old analog TV will go off the air forever, replaced by new special digital tv. If you didn't know this, you're not the only one. From the AP:
Congress has ordered broadcasters to shut off old-style analog TV broadcasts by Feb. 17, 2009, and replace them with sharper digital ones. When that happens, millions of households with pre-digital TVs that rely on antennas will need to have purchased and installed digital converter boxes that will cost a minimum of $60 each.
"I have a great apprehension that a great mess lies before us," House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman John Dingell, D-Mich., said Wednesday.
We do too. The converter boxes don't go on sale until next January. Congress has set aside $1.5 billion to subsidize the conversion. $40 coupons will be handed out, 2 to a household, on a first come first served basis. You can request them starting Jan 1, 2008. We can't wait to explain this to Grandma.—MEGHANN MARCO

Poaching is a great way to cook fruit too – their flavour is sweetened, their flesh softened, taking even the hardiest of ripen-at-home fruits and turning it into a fragrant and luscious pudding. Vanilla flecked thick Greek yogurt makes an ideal accompaniment.
Rhubarb seems to lend itself best to a very gentle poach. I'm sure London's top chefs would cook it sous-vide (in a temperature controlled water bath) for hours on a very low heat. For me though, a fairly weak sugar syrup (1 part sugar to 8 parts water) is all that is called for. Finger-length pieces swim around over a very low flame, cooking for maybe eight to ten minutes.
A gentle turn half way through to ensure even cooking, then I spoon them out of the liquor before cranking up the heat and reducing the syrup to a quarter of its volume or so. I remove it from the heat, add a splash of Prosecco and spoon it over the rhubarb before serving it alongside one of my favourite puddings -caramel panna cottas.
A final sprinkle of some crushed Amaretti biscuits is all that is needed to give the final dish some contrasting crunch to go with the perfectly cooked rhubarb.

We "Crushed It" At Golden Hill!
Being a bit out of the way, Golden Hill doesn't normally get much love, but last Saturday May 9th, the woods were ringing as ten hearty volunteers, two full-size dump trucks, one chain saw, three leaf blowers, two string trimmers, "Travis" the Muck Truck and probably fifteen barrels of elbow grease all turned up at the Golden Hill trail work day.
Locally-sourced rock and crushed stone were used to armor the wet climb out of the Chapman Rd. cul-de-sac and the end result was a huge improvement to a perennial problem area. Big thanks go out Jack Kramer at Ellicottville Landscaping for the use of his TWO dump trucks to bring the stone to the worksite. Anyone who's ever tried to shovel

110ml with Atomiser Magnesium Chloride Oil 50% *Ultra pure Zechstein sourced* with added Tea tree
Magnesium chloride oil
Boost Exercise Performance (1)
Can improve Type 2 Diabetes symptoms (3)
Our high purity Magnesium chloride is extracted by solution mining from the ancient Zechstein seabed off the coast of the Netherlands which has the lowest contaminant levels in the world.
Magnesium is an essential mineral needed to regulate body temperature & protein synthesis with an important role in maintaining nerve & muscle cell electrical potentials.
Magnesium Oil isn't an oil as it is made by mixing mag flakes with water. Some people make magnesium oil at home, however I very strongly advise using only ultra-pure zero p.p.m steam distilled water, NOT TAP WATER as it has added chlorine and myriad other pollutants. The amount of unknown chemicals in tap water mean that there will be many unknown chemical reactions with magnesium chloride. These new chemicals will be absorbed into the bloodstream resulting in completely unknown and unpredictable results.

VP Biden votes in Delaware, coy about 2016
Catalina Camia, USA TODAY
Vice President Biden voted Tuesday morning in Delaware, telling reporters he's "feeling pretty good" about the Election Day outcome.
Biden had to wait in line at his polling place just like everybody else at Alexis duPont High School in Greenville, according to the White House pool report. President Obama and first lady Michelle Obama already exercised their rights — by taking part in early and absentee voting.
Will this be the last time he'll vote for himself in an election? Biden was playful with reporters when asked.
"No, I don't think so," he said with a grin. Stay tuned.

In common usage, delirium is often used to refer to drowsiness, disorientation, and hallucination. In medical terminology, however, a number of different symptoms, including temporary disturbance in consciousness, with reduced ability to focus attention and solve problems, are the core features of delirium. Occasionally sleeplessness and severe agitation and irritability are part of "delirium." Hallucination, drowsiness, and disorientation are not required, but may be contribute to the diagnosis.
Disease Statistics
The budget allocated by the government for mental health is 6% of the total budget allocated for health for country . It covers the delirium as it is the part of mental diseases.
Treatment of delirium involves two main strategies: first, treatment of the underlying presumed acute cause or causes; secondly, optimizing conditions for the brain. This involves ensuring that the patient with delirium has adequate oxygenation, hydration, nutrition, and normal levels of metabolites, that drug effects are minimized, constipation treated, pain treated, and so on. Detection and management of mental stress is also very important. Therefore, the traditional concept that the treatment of delirium is 'treat the cause' is not adequate; patients with delirium actually require a highly detailed and expert analysis of all the factors which might be disrupting brain function.
Major Research on Disease
Delirium also found to worsen severity in those already diagnosed with dementia and increase the pace of cognitive decline because some delirium is preventable; it is plausible that delirium prevention may lead to dementia prevention.

Schools in the San Juan School District earned a range of grades, ranging from B to F, under the new grading program developed in the Utah State legislature.
Schools in the Monticello and Blanding area received a "B" grade, while schools in the Montezuma Creek area received a "D" grade and schools in the Monument Valley area received an "F" grade.
The new program, which is designed to provide an additional measure of school accountability, assigns a letter grade to every school in the state. Supporters argue that the concept will allow the public to see, in a glance, how their local schools are doing.
Opponents argue that the measure over-simplifies the complicated process of educating children, while providing limited ability for schools to improve their grade.
In a letter to San Juan School District staff, which was issued before the grades were released, Superintendent Doug Wright said, "While we may be disappointed in the grades, we recognize the progress that is being made towards improvement and the efforts that each of you are making to assure student success in your classroom and school."

Iran president talks moderation, maintains nuclear goal
- President-elect still supports nuclear program
- Rowhani was on list of ayatollah%27s approved candidates
- He%27s open to talks with West but wants U.S. to stay out of Iran%27s affairs
Western hopes that Iran's newly elected president signals a new moderate shift by the mullahs who run the country may be misplaced, given Hasan Rowhani's support of the leadership's nuclear program, some experts said.
Rowhani's pledge to "build trust" may open possibilities for dialogue to ease tensions over Tehran's disputed nuclear program, but Iran analysts said the Islamic republic's unelected ruler, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has no real differences with Rowhani, a man who has been part of the regime for decades and made the cut of its approved candidates.
Rowhani's approach is to move forward with Iran's ultimate aims but to deal with Western opposition "more intelligently," said Marc Reuel Gerecht, a former CIA operations officer who focused on Iranian sources.
Rowhani's objective is "to not diminish the ultimate nuclear objective, which is weaponization, but to slow down certain aspects (of the nuclear program), to make concessions but keep your eye on the goal," he said.
Rowhani's presidential campaign and much of the election debate focused on Iran's economy, which has been crippled by international sanctions aimed at curbing its disputed nuclear program.
On Monday, Rowhani spoke of moderation, trust and new beginnings, but he left no doubt that Iran's nuclear program will proceed. "We have to enhance mutual trust between Iran and other countries," Rowhani said, according to Press TV, the official Iranian news broadcaster. "The basis of politics is constructive interaction with the world."
He also said there'll be no halt to uranium enrichment and no direct U.S. dialogue without a pledge to stay out of Iranian affairs.
The campaign showed "a growing consensus within Iran's political establishment, including hard-liners, that Iran needs to find a way out of the nuclear crisis, not by getting a nuclear weapon but by cutting some kind of a deal," said Suzanne Maloney, an Iran expert at the Brookings Institution's Saban Center.
Meir Javendanfar, an Iranian-Israeli analyst at the Interdisciplinary Center in Herzliya, Israel, said Rowhani's election did not happen against the will of the supreme leader.
"I'm seeing a change in the policy and approach of the supreme leader," Javendanfar said.
Rowhani won 50.7% of the vote, running against six final candidates (one dropped out) approved by the Guardian Council of the Constitution, a body of Khamenei appointees. Friday's election went smoothly, unlike in 2009, when Iranians flooded the streets to protest what many claimed was a rigged vote count and the protests were suppressed with violence.
Mir-Hossein Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi, opposition candidates from 2009, remain under house arrest.
Rowhani on his own suggested suspending uranium enrichment in 2004 and delivered short-lived results. Iran at the time was worried about antagonizing the United States after its invasion of neighboring Iraq the previous year, Gerecht said. Rowhani wrote in his memoir of the negotiations he sought to keep building confidence with the international community while building Iran's nuclear capacity as negotiations continued, Gerecht said.
During the campaign, Rowhani criticized the government's confrontational foreign policy style, saying he could have achieved the same nuclear progress while avoiding crippling international sanctions that have throttled Iran's economy.
Iran's struggling economy was a major campaign issue, and it was impossible to address it without discussing sanctions and the nuclear strategy that has caused the United States, Europe and the United Nations to limit Iran's access to goods and currency that grease the wheels of commerce. Rowhani stood out for his harsh criticism of the confrontational policies and approach of the incumbent president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
The openness of the debate about nuclear negotiations and sanctions during the campaign, and the lack of official pushback from the Islamic regime since the election suggests that Rowhani will be allowed an opportunity to seek an accommodation with the West, Maloney said.
"He would appear to have some mandate to deal with the nuclear issue in some manner different than his predecessor did," Maloney said. "There was considerable degree of running room given to all the candidates to talk about the nuclear issue in a way never before seen in Iranian politics. To my mind, that's a signal."
It appears his position has wide acceptance in the regime, and "there may be a brief honeymoon period where if he can show a way out, it will be considered," she said.
Despite a growing chorus in Iran's parliament blaming Ahmadinejad's foreign policy for crippling the economy, international sanctions have not swayed the regime from its nuclear course. The U.N. International Atomic Energy Agency says Iran is violating its international agreements by refusing to permit access to its nuclear facilities. Iran says it is working on nuclear energy; the United States says it is illegally working on an atomic bomb.
President Obama has said he prefers to resolve the issue peacefully, but negotiations have gone nowhere, according to IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano. The U.S. Senate voted in May on a resolution asking Obama to impose tougher economic sanctions — such as barring Iran from using its oil revenue to buy anything other than food and medicine.
Yet Iran in the past year has ramped up its installation of advanced, more efficient centrifuges that can be used to produce weapons-grade uranium.
Rowhani, a cleric, was aligned from the start with Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the founder of the Iranian revolution in 1978. He has supported Iran's nuclear quest since its inception.
During the past month of presidential campaigning, Rowhani said, "Spinning centrifuges are great, but a functioning industry is good, too," said Ray Takeyh, an Iran expert at the Council on Foreign Relations.
Takeyh said conditions for negotiations have improved because "you have president of the United States and (future) president of Iran that both want to deal on this issue. They may not get there, but there's some kind of an alignment."
On other issues, Rowhani indicated he will stay the course set by his predecessor and the supreme leader.
He has referred to Syria as a beachhead against Zionism and expressed support for Syrian dictator Bashar Assad in his civil war against a Sunni majority demanding democratic rule, Takeyh said. Hezbollah, the Iranian-backed Shiite militia in Lebanon, has such broad-based support in Iran's leadership that its support for Assad and its terrorist acts against Israeli and Jewish targets around the world never became a campaign issue, Takeyh said.
On the nuclear issue, Rowhani is likely to offer a suspension of 20% uranium enrichment, a focus of U.S. and Israeli concern, Takeyh said.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said Israel will not accept Iran crossing the "red line" of a 250-kilogram stockpile of 20% enriched uranium because Iran could then quickly produce enough nuclear fuel for a bomb without detection by international monitors.
Ahmadinejad's former chief nuclear negotiator, Saeed Jalili, had offered to suspend 20% enrichment if Western powers lifted banking sanctions, but "we weren't willing to pay the price," Takeyh said.
Gerecht said Khamenei may be willing to accept such an offer, but the Iranian nuclear program has progressed to the point where that offer is no longer significant.
Iran has ramped up its installation of advanced centrifuges that are much more efficient, making its 20% stockpile less and less relevant to its breakout capacity, Gerecht said.
"Given the huge centrifuge production, if they keep increasing uranium centrifuges, having stockpiled 20% is far less critical than it used to be because if you have all these centrifuges, you can go to breakout capacity increasingly quickly," he said. "It doesn't take all that long if you have enough centrifuges, you can go from 5% enriched to weapons grade at a pretty rapid rate."
Gerecht is not even sure Khamenei could be convinced to go along.
"He has become very fond of the 'up yours' approach," Gerecht said. "I think he enjoys it immensely."

Published on
May 16, 2014
Thirty years ago, on May 17, 1984, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) announced a multi-billion-dollar rescue of the failing Continental Illinois National Bank and Trust Company, following a run by the bank's depositors. The FDIC also said it would protect creditors who were not normally shielded from a bank's failure. The decision set a precedent that the global banking system is still trying to come to terms with—the idea of a financial institution that is "too big to fail."
One of the 10 largest US banks at the time, with about $40 billion in assets, Continental Illinois represented the largest bank failure in American history until the financial crisis of 2007-08, when regulators again stepped in to rescue banks and other major financial companies.
"We thought that much of what happened in the most recent financial crisis was new, but there are a lot of parallels to Continental Illinois," said Randall S. Kroszner, Norman R. Bobins Professor of Economics and a governor of the Federal Reserve System from 2006 to 2009. "Its problems were related to insufficient liquidity, excessive leverage, and fragile interconnections, both domestic and international—themes that have emerged again in recent years. Examining what happened back then can give us lessons for the future."
On May 15, Kroszner and other Chicago Booth professors joined key participants in Continental Illinois's rescue, as well as researchers who have studied the "too big to fail" dilemma, for a day-long conference and a lively debate about the most effective policy responses to systemically important financial firms. The conference was organized by the George J. Stigler Center for the Study of the Economy and the State, with financial support from The Clearing House Association.
In the months leading up to its failure, Continental Illinois recorded a skyrocketing number of bad loans, many linked to the bursting of the energy bubble of the early 1980s. The bank was able to remain solvent until its Japanese and European lenders abruptly stopped providing short-term funding. Regulators feared that if they didn't intervene dramatically, the problem would spread to other US financial firms—similar to what actually happened in the recent crisis.
"The broader learning from Continental Illinois is that if you're facing a potential panic, you stop it early, rather than letting it grow as happened in 2007 and 2008," said Oliver Ireland, a partner at Morrison & Foerster LLP and former vice president and associate general counsel of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago.
But that choice remains deeply controversial, as evidenced by the heated discussion among Ireland and other panelists. They debated about exactly what regulators should have done back then, and how their actions may have encouraged moral hazard in subsequent decades among big banks, which many participants believe took on undue risk with the expectation that they would be rescued in a crisis.
There will always be short-term benefits to a bailout, said Philip Strahan, professor and John L. Collins, S.J. Chair in Finance at the Carroll School of Management at Boston College. "Agents working on short-term time horizons are going to place much less weight on long-term moral hazard problems that are going to happen on somebody else's watch," he added. The result, he said, is that the expectations of a bailout distort markets, possibly encouraging financial firms to borrow more than they should.
Research by Bryan Kelly, assistant professor of finance at Booth, provides evidence for these market distortions. Kelly examines options on financial stocks, which he says represent the price of insurance against a system-wide crash. In his data which go through 2010, he finds that bailouts effectively subsidize equity holders by making the price of insuring the financial sector less than it would be if investors didn't assume that regulators would rescue failing firms. "This starts to be some treacherous terrain," Kelly said. "It looks like a rational expectations spiral."
Paul Saltzman, president of The Clearing House, countered that the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act has fundamentally changed the playing field for financial companies. "We are embracing the policy of shrinking banks, deleveraging banks, and reducing the global footprint of our banks, all in the name of mitigating too big to fail," he said.
Strahan and Kelly agreed that Dodd-Frank has reduced the incentives for banks to take excessive risks, but they warned against complacency. "The danger is that the cycle repeats as memories start to fade and markets adapt," Strahan said.
What can be done to ward off another systemic panic? While some of the panelists argued that another financial crisis is inevitable, some proposed ideas to avert the runs on deposits that terrified investors in 2007-08.
John Dugan, a partner at Covington & Burling LLP and comptroller of the currency from 2005 to 2010, suggested that financial institutions need a large cushion of subordinated claims to absorb losses, protecting the short-term creditors that can spark bank runs by rushing to withdraw their deposits.
John H. Cochrane, AQR Capital Management Distinguished Service Professor of Finance at Booth, argued that banks should fund themselves primarily through equity, he said, and not through the short-term debt that is vulnerable to a run. "If we could cure the runs, we could have financial booms and busts without a financial crisis," he said.
It's crucial to figure out now how to respond to the next big bank failure, said Gary Stern, the former president and chief executive of the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis. Stern coauthored the book Too Big to Fail: The Hazards of Bank Bailouts in 2004, several years before the financial crisis. In his keynote speech, he recommended that regulators emphasize that uninsured creditors will not be protected when a bank fails, and that firms have plans for an orderly resolution.
"The key is to change the position of regulators and policymakers, so they come to understand they can wind these institutions down and impose losses at tolerable costs," Stern said. "If policymakers don't have that confidence, they will always resort to bailouts in the name of preserving financial stability."—Amy Merrick

A graduate assistantship consists of two parts -- a scholarship and a taxable work-related salary. The graduate appointment salary will be paid through the College payroll system on a biweekly basis. The salary will not be paid until the student has completed the W-4 and I-9 forms, which will be available at registration. The recommendation for financial assistance originates with the respective graduate chair and is approved by the graduate dean.
The duties and responsibilities of each graduate assistant are arranged and supervised by the appropriate school or department. An average of up to 15 hours per week is normally required to fulfill a graduate assistant's assigned duties on a full assistantship.
Ithaca College offers a limited number of graduate scholarships to matriculated M.B.A. students. Scholarships range from one-quarter to full tuition and are awarded on the basis of academic merit. In most cases, scholarship awards are determined by May 1, and recipients are notified by May 15.
All applicants to the M.B.A. programs are considered for scholarship awards, and no separate scholarship application is required.
Students must register for a minimum of 9 credits each semester during the academic year to maintain an assistantship (6 credits in the summer). Students with full assistantships may take a maximum of 12 credits per semester. M.B.A. students with full graduate scholarships may take a maximum of 15 credits per semester. Exceptions should be requested in writing and require approval of the dean of graduate studies. Students with TAP awards must take 12 credits per semester, or 9 credits plus a graduate assistantship.
A full-time student is defined as one who takes 9 credits per regular semester. During the summer, enrollment with 6 credits is considered full-time.

In our humble opinion, Juergen Teller is responsible for everything that is awesome about fashion photography. Along with the fellow photogs like Wolfgang Tillmans, and later, Terry Richardson, he changed the '90s mood from unattainable glossy perfection to something a lot more real—and a lot more (crucially) fun.
While there's no denying that this beer-drinking, football-loving German has a knack for shock and outrage, we love the fact that his work — whether it's Kate Moss naked in a wheelbarrow or a snap of his adorable son Ed — is also honest, intimate, and endearing. And hey, anyone who can convince Victoria Beckham to sit legs akimbo in a large shopping bag has to be a genius, right?
This week, Teller's first major U.K. exhibition in what feels like ages, opens at the ICA. Woo spans the photographer's career, from his infamous commercial collaborations with Mr. Jacobs to his portraits of Kurt Cobain to his snaps of a wet dog in Suffolk.
At the exhibition preview, Juergen told us that what links his work is curiosity: "I approach all my subjects in the same way, whether it's Vivienne Westwood or a hedge—you only live once and you've got to f*cking go out there and do what you need to do, find out what you need to find out," he explained, "all my work is about curiosity, I photographed my arse-hole because I was curious to know how it looks". And now we all know.
And what about coaxing VB to pose in those Marc Jacobs images? "Obviously it would have been a bad idea to turn up in Los Angeles with a shopping bag and to ask her to climb in...it was very important that she was laughing with us, so I explained to her the idea; that she is a product in the world of fashion, like perfume is, or a handbag. She is a product of her own making—and she went for it."
We had the pleasure of speaking to ICA director and Juergen's long-time collaborator Gregor Muir to get the inside scoop...

Tributes mark last meeting for 7 Denver City Council members
The seven outgoing Denver City Council members — the largest turnover since 2003 — took part in their final meeting Monday night. It was a meeting marked by tributes and farewell speeches peppered with humor, tears, and reflections on the tactics of citizen activists and the role of council members.Councilwoman Mary Beth Susman honored Charlie Brown by noting his "No whining" mantra and his penchant for the pithy quote. "You are the master of the sound bite," Susman said. "I hope that you will start giving lessons (and) do some tutoring. I don't know how you do it."
Brown didn't disappoint, saying he liked being called the "cowboy councilman." He added, "I've learned that you better be cowboy tough to do this job."
He also had council staff play a 2003 clip from "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart." Correspondent Samantha Bee featured Brown as a foil to a citizen activist who was pressing for a "stress reduction" ballot measure that might have required the playing of soothing music in city offices. (Watch it below.)
The next morning, Mayor Michael Hancock, during Tuesday's Mayor-Council meeting, gave each outgoing member a framed proclamation in honor of their service, along with folded city flags, spokeswoman Amber Miller said.
Here are several moments from the outgoing members' farewells Monday night, starting with the shortest serving, Susan Shepherd, who was defeated May 5 by challenger Rafael Espinoza in northwest Denver. New council members will take office next Monday as the mayor begins his second term.

The team who are climbing the Shard, London's tallest building, for the Save the Arctic campaign. The six women climbers are Sabine Huyghe (Belgium), Sandra Lamborn (Sweden), Victoria Henry (Canada), Ali Garrigan (UK), Wiola Smul (Poland) and Liesbeth Debbens (Netherlands). They chose to climb the Shard because it towers over Shell's three London offices. Shell is leading the oil companies' drive into the Arctic. Greenpeace is campaigning for the area around the North Pole to be made a global sanctuary, off-limits to industrialization.

JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel has distanced itself from a government official who made crude comments about the World War II nuclear bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Responding to a Japanese request for clarification, a top Israeli envoy told Japan that the comments were "unacceptable" and that the official had been suspended.
Danny Seaman was a government public relations official and posted on Facebook that he was "sick" of "self-righteous" Japanese and international commemorations of Hiroshima and Nagasaki victims. He said those events were the results of "Japanese aggression."
Israeli diplomatic officials said Thursday that the clarifications were made last week. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the private diplomatic discussions with the media.
The Japanese Embassy did not return a call seeking comment.

Flamin' hot chips have not-so-hot health consequences
Hot-and-spicy snacks taking toll on stomach linings
DETROIT – Hot and spicy snack foods are leaving more and more kids with not-so-hot feelings in their tummies. In fact, more and more of them are winding up in hospital emergency rooms.
According to an article in the Medical Daily, doctors are seeing kids doubled over with stomach pain after downing several bags of the snacks, but they also see lot of worried parents who believe their child's stool has blood in it, due to the dark orange and red coloring of the snacks.
Medical Daily reports, there are already some school districts in New Mexico, California and Illinois that have banned the snacks due to their lack of nutritional value, hoping to encourage children to eat healthier foods like string cheese, apples, or pretzels instead of spicy chips and Cheetos.
Because Flamin' Hot Cheetos have become so popular among young people, other snack companies have created spicy products to compete: Hot 'N Spicy Crunchy Nuggetz, Sizzlin' Cheese Flavored Twists, and Sizzlin' Hot Crunchy Kurls - just to name a few.

Tom Hubbard necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 79 diseños de 30 diseñadores freelance.
Need a creative logo that is elegant and represents strength, security, trust, professionalism, and reliability. The logo should be conservative yet creative. We are open to having an icon created or using HGI (H Group Insurance) as the logo piece. Using conservative colors like IBM blue and white...open to other colors that represent elegance.
We are an insurance broker that deals in home and auto insurance products. We need a logo for our website, business cards, letterhead etc. We are younger owners that really believe in branding. We are looking to really grow our agency, so would like a good/catchy logo for branding as we take over the world ;-) Again, we would entertain an icon of some sort or using our acronym of HGI (H Group Insurance) as the logo...or using the "H" as the main piece...we are open to your creative genius.
From a logo/icon perspective we would like to see a home and car creatively mixed into the design...or the resemblance of a car/home. We cover mainly home and auto, so you may want to incorporate that cleverly into an idea. Or icons that represent protection..ie..Allstate has a pair of hands.."You're in good hands, will Allstate") or Prudential who has "The Rock". Another decent logo is the First Magnus logo at http://www.firstmagnus.com (ironically they are now out of business).
We would also entertain our acronym, HGI (H Group Insurance), as the basis for the logo, but are leaning towards the Home/Auto icon to represent us. Depending on what you all come up with.
As an overall theme, we would like a logo that represents strength, protection, security, trust, reliability etc. Obviously we are in the business of protecting people's assets, so we need to elicit these feeling whenever we come in contact with our customers via business cards, website, letterhead etc.
Colors: IBM blue, Silver, White...we are open to colors combos that represent strength.
Just to give you a better idea of how my mind works, I really like the icon logo for Lexus and Mercedes...they go well with their products. We want to be the Lexus/Mercedes of Insurance.
Don't want a big gaudy icon pictures. Don't want a normal picture of a car and a home, but if you could creatively have those images...that might be cool. Nothing too flashy with colors (like a lot of "80's" themes I see), nothing too abstract, we don't want customers wondering what our logo is.

This may occur if the Zune service is down, if your Internet service is down, or if you entered your sign-in information incorrectly.
Things to try
Try one or more of the following:
- Check the status of the Zune service on the Xbox Live Status page. If the service is unavailable, try again later.
- Close the Zune software, restart your computer, restart the Zune software, and then try to sign in again.
- As obvious as it seems, make sure that you're connected to the Internet. You might have lost your Wi-Fi connection, your service might be down, or your router might be offline and need a simple restart. To check your connection on the computer having the problem:
- Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
If you're using Windows 8: From the Start screen, start typing control panel, and then press Enter to access your control panel screen.
- Click Network and Internet, and then View network status and tasks. This screen will tell you whether you're connected to a network or not.

- The email and password for your Zune account is the same one you use to sign in to your Xbox Live and Microsoft accounts.
- If you recently added or changed a Microsoft account, and you used an older account to set up your Zune, this new account is not going to sign you in to your Zune account.
- If you want your Zune account associated with a new Microsoft account and password, the only way you can do this is to open a new Zune account, which will be separate from the one you already have.
- If you forgot your password, or you can't sign in using the correct password, go to Reset your password.
