As CityMatCH member health departments strive to improve the overall health and well-being of urban women, children and families, they dedicate considerable effort to addressing the complex, multifaceted aspects of assuring urban adolescent health and well-being. Children and adolescents age 0-17 constitute one-fourth of the Nation's population and while they are healthier than adults in general, from 13 to 23 percent experience special health care needs or chronic illnesses and disabilities.
"The city is grateful for the work all of you do on behalf of families all across America. We recognize that your diligence is needed now more than ever… especially as we live in a time when the number of uninsured Americans has reached the 45 million mark and still counting; and when the divide between rich and poor has reached unprecedented proportions and is still widening..."
Once a hot topic in the 1990's, teen pregnancy has been supplanted by other pressing public health concerns: welfare reform in '96, bioterrorism in '01, obesity in '04, methamphetamines in '06, to name a few. However, while other issues take precedence, the United States continues to own one of the highest rates of teen pregnancy in the industrialized world. Given this, policymakers, public health professionals and practitioners must ask, "What more can we and should we be doing to prevent teen pregnancy in local, urban MCH?"
Improvements in the overall health and well-being of urban women, children and families will not be fully achievable without a sustained organizational and personal commitment to undoing racism in all its manifestations. Several years ago, in response to research suggesting that racism and discrimination negatively impact health in at least three critical areas: health status, access to health care and quality of health services, CityMatCH embarked on a journey to build member knowledge and capacity in this area. (See page four)
As an Associate Member, you will receive announcements, updates and publications from CityMatCH, including the quarterly CityLights newsletter and the NewsBriefs bi-weekly listserv of current urban MCH resources and opportunities.
Associate Membership is free and open to persons with an interest in urban MCH.

I think I'll just keep the LG driver.. I can get similar light gamma by putting it at 2.0 as I get when it's set at 2.6 with the Generic PnP one.
Hi, I've had this monitor for some time now, but have never been sure of how to calibrate it properly. One problem is that the "Generic PnP' driver Windows tries to install gives everything a very light, unsaturated look. At first everything looks horrible, even when turning brightness down, but the monitor still has gamma settings you can control (1.8, 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, and 2.6). I have it on 2.6 because that's the darkest but everything still looks washed out.
Normally I used LG's driver anyway (I think the one on their site is the same on the CD that's included for installation). The thing is, everything looks perhaps a little too dark, even at 2.2 gamma, a little over-saturated. It's hard to say and I thought perhaps I just wasn't adjusting the settings properly, but surely by now after playing with it so much I would have gotten it right.
Can anyone offer any advice here? I tend to prefer their mode settings (text or photo), which is another problem, perhaps the biggest, as that does add more contast and darkness to the overall image -- but it looks way too blue or foggy no matter how I tweak it in the User mode or RGB (if you know this monitor you know that it inexplicably doesn't allow you to get the same contrast levels as its movie, text and photo modes while in user mode).
The reason I don't necessarily want to stick with LG's driver is because that added lightness in the generic one actually makes some things look good. Pictures often look "OK" on them (not over-saturated, but kind of dull), but older games and movies often look better (I noticed this when playing Doom 1 that I didn't need to press F11 to affect the game's built in gamma settings). But you do get deeper blacks and stronger colors when using LG's driver, so not sure about what is better overall. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

After skimming through this long dialogue, a few comments from a thesaurus junkie who doesn't always follow the technicalities of how you have to do it in RDF: 1. It is absolutely normal for a top concept in one thesaurus to occupy a lower hierarchical position in another. 2. Similarly, different thesauri usually take different views about relationships between concepts. For example, some thesauri would give 'cattle' as a NT of 'Organisms'; others would fill in up to 6 hierarchical levels between these concepts. What I am saying is that relationships between concepts should generally be specified in association with a particular thesaurus, and not expected to apply universally. ( Of course, some concepts and relationships do have a fairly robust universal applicability, but in general you cannot and should not assume that to be the case.) 3. In the UKAT case cited, yes, I agree that the occupation of a Top location could be expected to vary between microthesauri, and so wherever a term/concept is designated as Topterm, that should be regarded as specific to one or more microthesauri. 4. And should every thesaurus have a "root concept" - the toppest term of all? Please no, if it means setting up artificial hierarchical relationships from the genuine top terms. It is true that some system implementers want and expect it, but it causes confusion for other users of the same data. 4. And, should "Top term" be assigned to a term/concept at all? As was pointed out, to do so is a bit redundant because you can infer it from the absence of a BT relationship. But in practice I find that people trying to implement thesauri ( and especially taxonomies) find it very helpful to be able to identify the top term entries rapidly, directly, without having to look for the absence of something. System administrators typically have no previous experience with thesauri and they want simple things to help them manage the data. So when thesaurus data are being exchanged or distributed, it is good to give them all the labels/attributes/properties that will speed up the implementation. 5. As to including a section on 'microthesauri' in guidance notes for general use, be careful. Not everyone uses this term to mean the same as UKAT does. Hopefully my comments support what you were all concluding in any case.

UKAT is a thesaurus with several contained 'microthesauri'. UKAT wanted to know how to model microthesauri, which are not covered by the current SKOS Core guide. I suggested they model each microthesaurus as a concept scheme in its own right. The UKAT concepts can then be declared as members of both the overarching scheme and a microthesaurus as well. Some concepts are top concepts within a microthesaurus, but not in the overarching scheme - this was the original use case. That's when we realised there could be a problem with skos:TopConcept whenever a concept is a member of more than one scheme. I was thinking about putting a section on 'Microthesauri' in the 'Advanced Features' section of the proposed 'Guide to Using SKOS Core for Thesauri' note, explaining how to do it ... what do you reckon?

Keep that non-folding, easily-rusted, beautiful-but-too-nice-for-me toadsticker. I like the 625, and I like it quite a bit more than a lot.

I had a 625 years ago...along with a Brazillian Contract 1917 made in 1937 that had seen better days and one that had been reblued.
Still have a couple dozen moonclips laying about someplace...
And that stabber is just purty... but I'd hate to get it all bloody and have to lose it to an evidence locker for it to rust, or a lake.
Going to have to light my own candle one of these days, but all the pictures I see on this theme have such beauty, and I've just got my glocks or my Smith J frames. I guess it's the theme and the thought, does it have to be a pretty picture if I don't have my own blog?

The Last Harvest: Paintings of Rabindranath Tagore
January 29–April 15, 2012
Gallery 50
Tagore is part of a long and distinguished tradition of writers whose expression extended beyond the page and across media. For many fellow writers and indeed Nobel laureates, the visual arts seemed to be an alternate mode of expression, often explored later in life. Nobel Prize–winning authors William B. Yeats, Hermann Hesse, and Günter Grass found drawing and painting to be enriching and complementary activities to their writing.
Tagore did not discover his affinity for painting until 1924, when he was in his mid-60s. His artistic practice grew out of his habits as a writer and poet; doodles and erasures sketched on his manuscripts blossomed into fantastic animals, figures, and scenes. Tagore's cross-cultural encounters during his many trips abroad influenced his visual art—tribal artifacts of the Pacific, ancient bronzes from China, arts and crafts of Japan, and European modernism are all evident. By incorporating these various motifs and styles, he created images—rhythmically articulated pictorial forms—he felt were universal. He believed that while his music and writing were primarily for Bengal and India, his paintings—free from the limitations of language—were for the whole world.
The Art Institute is pleased to join the celebrations of Tagore's 150th birthday by bringing The Last Harvest: Paintings of Rabindranath Tagore to Chicago. Co-organized by the National Gallery of Modern Art, New Delhi, and the Ministry of Culture of the Government of India, this is the first major traveling exhibition from India to be exhibited at the Art Institute and presents a stunningly beautiful visual introduction to one of India's most highly regarded writers and artists.
The exhibition is organized by the National Gallery of Modern Art, New Delhi, and the Ministry of Culture, Government of India.

Last week I asked if you would be tuning into HBO's new series Girls, which some have hailed as the best show of the year. While some of you said you would be tuning in to watch, the majority seemed to reject the depiction of four twenty-something white women struggling to make it in New York City.
One commenter, Connie, summed up the thoughts of many, writing, "i am so tired of these all white shows speaking for the lot of us, there are girls of all color going through the same things couldn't a little of that been put on displayed on this show. As a NY'er I am beyond pissed that they are not doing my city justice, NY is more diverse than this culturally."
It seems like Clutchettes weren't the only ones critical of the lack of diversity on Girls. Jezebel's Dodai Stewart wrote that although could totally relate to the show's content as a young woman who grew up in New York and struggled to make it as a writer, she couldn't relate to the show's intentional lack of diversity.
She explains: "I, too am a black woman who grew up in New York. I went to both public and prep schools. I, too, have been a struggling twentysomething writer. And yet. The world in which Hannah and her friends inhabit seems familiar, except for its complete lack of diversity."
Kendra James of Racialicious takes it a but further, noting she went to college with the show's creator and star Lena Dunham and knows that her world was much more diverse than its on-camera depiction.
James writes:
We're both graduates of Oberlin College in Oberlin, OH, where we were separated by two years. Dunham majored in creative writing, while I majored in cinema studies and anthropology. We weren't friends at Oberlin, and we weren't acquaintances, but it's a tiny school; I could have picked her out of a crowd by her tattoos alone. Like the character Dunham plays on Girls, Hannah, I spent almost two years after graduating toiling in a thankless, underpaid internship in my desired industry.
Here came the confusion: If Lena Dunham and I come from similar educational backgrounds, honed our writing and narrative skills at the same school (and likely with some of the same professors), and grew up spending time in the same city (she's from Tribeca, and I was a bridge-and-tunnel kid from a nice New Jersey suburb about 30 minutes away), then how could we conceive such radically different images of New York City? Why would I feel so ill-at-ease with her critics essentially declaring her as my voice?
Girls falls into the trap of aiming to speak for "all," young, wananabe creatives trying to make it in the big city, but what happens when that depiction leaves out a huge portion of the demographic?
In their world, Asians are only good for computer-related help (the lone Asian on the first episode was good with Photoshop), and black and Latina women are only fit to fall into tired old stereotypes (Racialicious uncovered the show's casting documents requesting a loud, bossy Latina and a Jamaican Nanny). But this doesn't mirror real life.
After criticism of the lack of diversity came to light, some felt the need to push back, wondering why people of color need to be included in "stories about thin white girls." But as Stewart points out, this rationale–that white women should be able to share their stories sans diversity (despite living in a diverse city) simply because blacks and people of color have (very few) outlets to share their stories–sets up a separate but equal situation. And as we know, the glut of "white" shows far outweighs whatever Tyler Perry or BET could ever create.
So now what?
While it remains to be seen if Girls will become more diverse, this is just another reason for people of color to support those who care about sharing our stories and how we are incorporated them into the glorious fabric of our country.

Mystery Picture #7
This month's novice picture is a cicada. There are many different types of cicadas ranging in size from 25 to over 50 mm in length. Cicadas are known for their ability to produce sound. Each species has a distinct song and some people are able to recognize the species by the song alone. The cicadas are some of the largest homopteran insects in the United States. Some cicadas have very long life cycles requiring up to 17 years to mature.
To read more about the different types of cicadas, see ENT-52 - The Periodical Cicada in Kentucky.
This month's expert picture is an expert in decomposition. It is one of a group of carrion beetles known as the burying beetle. It gets its name from its peculiar habit of burying dead animals, such as mice and other small rodents, to use as larval food. It will dig a trench under the dead animal, lay eggs on or near the animal, and then cover it up. The emerging larvae will have an ample food supply.

Monday marked 20 years since the start of the Rwandan genocide, and Winnipeggers gathered across the city for commemoration events.
On April 6, 1994 a plane carrying the Hutu president of Rwanda, Juvenal Habyarimana, was shot down.
Habyarimana's death sparked a 100-day massacre of more than 800,000 people, mostly Tutsi civilians and some moderate Hutu.
University of Manitoba social work professor Regine Uwibereyeho King survived the genocide and later moved to Canada in 2000.
King spoke at the Millennium Library Monday afternoon to share her story of survival and discuss her ongoing work in genocide prevention.
She said the country has come a long way in 20 years.
"Rwanda has gone so far. Actually, Rwanda is more peaceful than Winnipeg," said King.
"I can be walking around at night [in Rwanda, and], I don't think I can feel the same way in [Winnipeg] or in some other cities in Canada."
The University of Manitoba planned testimony, panel discussions and a vigil to mark the day.

Five years old
Umbrella Cockatoo
Kelso, Washington, USA
e brought Jake home to be in our family about a year ago. I was at a specialty bird store looking at toys and birds. He was scared in his cage, then some people came in looking to get a bird. They got Jake out of the cage and onto a stand. He was sooo terrified of everyone and just sat there shaking. After watching for a few minutes and people walking away - finally, I walked up to him talking and he scooted towards me on the perch. I got closer to him because of this, when I was close enough he just laid his head on my chest and snuggled in wrapping his wing over my shoulder. I was not looking for a cockatoo just yet, wanted to wait a few more months but he stole my heart. He also took right to my husband without fear.
He came from an abusive home and has since blossomed. He cuddles, loves, coos, plays, and entertains. Since coming home he has learned to perch on an arm, step up command, knows when it is time to go back to his cage, he hardly played now he can go through a barn full of wood in less than 24 hours if he were allowed! There is nothing more special than when he puts his head on your chest and a wing over your shoulder as if he is giving a hug.

After months of debate, the Senate confirmed Gina McCarthy as the new administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). She was sworn in as administrator on July 19, 2013, and vowed to pursue "smart, commonsense, pragmatic solutions" to environmental problems as EPA's new chief and continue the work of her predecessor, Lisa Jackson.
In her inaugural address to EPA staff on July 23, 2013, McCarthy stated that "we have a clear responsibility to act now on climate change." She added that EPA "has the courage to act" to address climate change as "President Obama has called on us and the American people [to do] so that we protect future generations." In addition to climate change, McCarthy said EPA will address aging water infrastructure systems and will update its chemical safety regulations "so industry has a clear, fair set of rules."
The Senate Environment and Public Works Committee has also approved three nominees for positions at the Environmental Protection Agency, including: Kenneth Kopocis, assistant administrator for water; James Jones, assistant administrator for chemical safety and pollution prevention; and Avi Garbow, general counsel. Janet McCabe, the acting assistant administrator for air and radiation, has also been slated to replace McCarthy as the assistant administrator for air and radiation.

Gerard Pique has made clear his faith that Barcelona can turn around their Champions League tie with Milan tomorrow evening.
The Catalans play host in the second leg of this Last 16 tie and need to overcome a 2-0 deficit from the first leg if they are to have any hope of progressing to the quarter-finals.
Taking the pre-game Press conference, the Spanish centre-back affirmed his belief that that is possible.
"I have the feeling that we can do it," enthused the defender to reporters today.
"We are playing against one of the greatest, Milan, with a history full of Champions League and Italian League titles, they will be a very difficult opponent.
"But, we have the Camp Nou and a team that is the best we have ever had at this club, I honestly believe that we have the team and the talent to do it."
Pique also has some encouragement for the club's supporters.
"We want them to engage. Above all, we need people to believe in us. Those who do not believe in the comeback, do not come.
"The other day I was thinking, we went 90 years without winning anything, Cruyff has then changed our mentality. In the past 10, 15, 20 years of the club we have made history.
"Eleven or 12 years ago, people celebrated when we qualified for the Champions League with a goal from Rivaldo. This team has won much, it deserves all the credit in the world."
Pique was asked his view on why the club have struggled in recent games to score goals.
"We have more than 20 more goals scored in La Liga than the next best team, if something is missing from this team then it is not goals.
"Yes we know that we will be facing an Italian team, and historically I guess that with it at 2-0 they will shut out space at the back, but playing like we know we can, we will be there.
"The small details will see us make the next round.
"Tomorrow there will be no excuse, the grass on the pitch will be cut to the perfect height, it will be watered as we like it too, the Camp Nou will be full, tomorrow there will be no excuse.
"This team is going to respond.

November 2011 John Weeks Integrator Round-up: Integrative Centers
Article surveys role of philanthropists in integrative medicine
Integrative center consultant Glenn Sabin of FON Therapeutics has offered up his reflections on the Evolution of Philanthropy in Integrative Medicine. He supports applying philanthropic dollars to performing research, community outreach and for educational purposes. However, while he believes he "will take some heat for this," Sabin argues that philanthropically subsidizing integrative clinical services "for all but the indigent or those that cannot afford to pay is unsustainable as a clinic/business model." He points out that this can be "a costly long-term decision that has over time resulted in the closing of many integrative medicine programs."
Comment: It is almost impossible to imagine the integrative medicine movement without thinking of philanthropy and philanthropists. What other medical fields are as cobbled to, energized through, and hobbled by, this need? Meantime, as I note in comments on Sabin's piece, the creation of the holistic medicical, naturopathic, chiropractic and other clinics that predated the invention of integrative centers were and remain of an opposite ilk. These necessarily followed the Jim Henson's toddler's motto: I can do it. I can do it myself! Fascinating to consider where we would be now had, say, 50% of the philanthropic millions used as battering rams to break down the antagonism in hospitals and academic health systems been re-directed. What if these dollars were strategically used to empower for those whose sweat equity created the response to patient demand known as "CAM" and holism? Some of us are working on this going forward and will be happy to increasingly find partners! There has clearly been value in top-down philanthropy. Be smart to have some more bottom-up, empowering these other disciplines and providers toward integrative leadership.

Michele Bellso & Sean Branagan to talk about marketing on May 29
Co-sponsored with the WISE Center, the next event will be May 29 and will feature Michele Bellso and Sean Branagan, two marketers professionals. Every business needs to market itself, including marketing businesses. Whether it is developing a marketing plan, creating an online presence, using print media, or thinking out-of-the-box, Bellso and Branagan have done it for their businesses. During the event, they will discuss how they have approached marketing their own businesses and the lessons we can learn from their efforts.
It is likely people will recognize Michele Bellso's name from her most recent venture; however, her first company was Designworks Advertising and she's still involved in it. Designworks is a local company that works on a national scale. I can't wait to ask about company's logo, which is a pair of denim jeans!
Sean Branagan's company has worked with companies in many different industries, including high-tech companies. Personally, I am impressed at the places I see Communigration mentioned. How does Sean get his company associated with so many area events?
I'll be moderating this event (which is more like an interview than two people doing presentations), which means I'll ask both Michele and Sean questions about marketing and get them to tell us lessons they've learned from developing marketing strategies for their businesses. It should be an exciting event!
Co-sponsored by the WISE Center, the event -- Talking Business: A Conversation With... -- will be held at the South Side Innovation Center, 2610 S. Salina St. on May 29, from 5 – 6 p.m. Networking and light refreshments will be available before and after the event. A $5.00 donation per person is requested with proceeds used to support the series.
This project was made possible, in part, through an Enitiative award. Enitiative is funded by a grant from the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation, focusing on entrepreneurship in the arts, technology, and our neighborhoods. To learn more about Enitiative, please visit www.enitiative.syr.edu.

Realtor Suzi Knight: Jan Oberle makes closings as smooth as possible
Published 7:00 pm, Sunday, July 5, 2009
Suzi Knight, a Realtor for 33 years, loves to do closings with Permian Abstract's Jan Oberle. "She has vast experience both with titles and with mortgages. This combination is absolutely fabulous fuel for success and for smooth closings." She has been working with Jan Oberle for approximately 10 years. Jan has been at Permian Abstract for the last two years.
When a closing agent has done their job well, it is often invisible to the client. A smooth hour in the closing procedure may be preceded by hours of work by the closing agent and the realtor, says Suzi. "Once a property is under contract, that's when the real work starts," she says.
Suzi notes that when bumps occur in the preparation process, which they often do, Jan is quick to notify her of not only the problem, but what she is doing to get it solved. "She's great at foreseeing problems and taking care of them before they explode," says Suzi. That comes from her commitment to making the closing process itself as smooth as glass.
Suzi finds Jan to be very detail oriented-and anyone who has ever been through closing knows what a mountain of details there are! "She never assumes, she always gets to the bottom of everything and goes to the person who can 'make it happen,'" Suzi says.
Many of Suzi's clients who have closed with Jan in the past ask for her again on their next transaction. In fact, Suzi says the entire group at Permian Abstract "does a very good job. They are all pleasant to work with, from the receptionist all the way up to the attorneys and the owner," referring to owner Harris Kerr.
"If you were to ask me if there were a downside to Jan, I would say NOTHING," Suzi declares.
As a Realtor, Suzi admits to being high maintenance. "I expect the best of myself and of everyone I work with. Jan meets every expectation I have."
A property transaction is a major issue for most people. A mistake on a seemingly small detail can create major problems later. Having a detail-oriented closing agent like Jan Oberle at Permian Abstract improves the chances for a smooth closing process and an insurable title for the long run.
When you have a choice as to where your transaction closes, be sure and ask for Permian Abstract.
Permian Abstract opened for business in 1954. It has been locally owned and operated by Harris E. Kerr since 2002. It is located at 406 North Big Spring. The phone number is 684-6389.

Dr. Sheri Hamnik, a Leesburg neurologist who had worked in The Villages, has been sentenced to one year probation for a DUI in Fruitland Park.
Two other misdemeanors, for unlawful possession of prescription drugs, were dropped because the 46-year-old doctor had lawful prescriptions for them.
Her attorney, John Spivey, said a plea for the DUI charge was in her best interest.
"All things considered, she didn't want to wait for a trial," Spivey said. "She wanted to resolve it and move on."

By Marjorie T Barton, Texas Mother of the Year 2011
The long window faced the east and lighted up the room with sunshine that glowed off the furniture. Everything in Grandmother's kitchen seemed to radiate the light from the window. We liked to sit on the north side of the table and watch the dust particles dance in the sunbeams. They gave a white satin affect to Grandmother's cupboard; we would rub our hands across the paint and feel the texture of the cupboard.
The cupboard was not ordinary. It was a delightful piece of furniture and we grandchildren longed to investigate every inch of it. The mirror in the center framed with small curvy shelves on each side held Grandmother's delicate glasses.
The drawers of the cupboard were filled with fresh-smelling linens and odd things that we would try to catch a glimpse of as we lingered while opening the drawer to obtain the tablecloth.
A gold Dutch girl with a rounded pumpkin-like skirt was the main attraction; this was Grandmother's cookie jar. Her cookies were not common everyday cookies like the peanut butter and raisin cookies that Mother usually made. Grandmother would fill her cookie jar with carrot cookies, pineapple cookies – and sometimes we would even get store-bought cookies. Grandmother would say, "You children haven't been around enough. These cookies are getting old." That would make us feel as if Grandmother really wanted to see us more often.
The table was the centerpiece of the room. It was round and with a fresh tablecloth, it became elegant. We often begged Grandmother to let us help set the table. Our mouths would water as we got the jelly and the crackers out. Grandmother used the cute little round crackers that floated on top of your soup like boats. Then she would add homemade pickles and cheese from the fridge along with the water jug that had the cut oranges on it. There was no need for flowers in the center; the condiments were beautiful enough to substitute for a vase of flowers.
Split pea soup, tomato soup and vegetable soup were Grandmother's specialties. The aroma greeted you at the door and led you right into the kitchen and to her white porcelain stove. It was such a treat to go there for lunch. We could sit still for a long time if we ate from her quaint blue stoneware and the round soup spoons that she used. We especially loved Grandma's soupspoons. Designed like a small bowl with a metal handle attached, the spoon scooped up the soup in little puddles that we sipped into our mouths and then if we were having carrot soup, we would chase the piece of carrot with our lips.
The sounds of Grandmother's kitchen began with the ticking of the clock that hung on the wall by the mysterious door. The face of the clock was on the tummy of a black cat. When the clock chimed the hours, the cat's eyes moved from side to side and it's tail wiggled. Then there was the radio, giving news and music from the top of the side cupboard, and the sound of Grandmother singing. Grandmother's singing was the best. She was from France. Her accent was delightful. We felt we were listening to a music box when we heard her. When we grandchildren came she would get us in front of her, and holding her fingers up like little puppets, twist them back and forth to the beat of the music and sing,
"See them dance so, All the little Marionettes.
See them dance so, Three little turns and off they go."
The mysterious door led to the lean-to pantry room. I remember getting inside only once. My quick surveyance of the hanging pans, the shelves filled with bottled fruits and vegetables, the flour-sack curtains, the round, square, oblong and heart shaped baskets and the garden pots let me know it was a room I could enjoy.
Grandmother's gone, but the memories of her kitchen and how wonderful it felt to be there will remain with her grandchildren forever.

So you want to learn how to make beer without any fuss? It's actually quite simple! With a basic knowledge of the process of fermentation and carbonation, and a little advice from your local brew store, you can make your own beer and have it ready to drink within one month. The key is beer kits. There are a variety of beer kits on the market today, and they come in many flavors and sizes. The easiest kind of beer kit to use is the 3 gallon beer bag variety, which takes little more effort than pouring boiling water into a bag, hanging the bag up on your wall, and then adding yeast once it has cooled down.
With a little more effort, you can have a larger array of ales to choose from to make your own beer. These beer brewing kits are available at your local brew shop or at HomeBrewing.com, and they allow you more freedom to choose the exact kind of beer that you want to drink. These kits require a few more tools, however, such as a 3 gallon brewing kettle, carboys (glass jars used as fermentation vessels), airlocks for the carboys, and bottling supplies.
If you are a beginner, we advise you to go to your local brew store and meet some local home brewers. This will enable you to reap the benefits of the collective knowledge of the employees of the brew store, who are usually very friendly and helpful to those just starting out. If you must get started right away, the beer bag style kits are probably for you - the simple and easy way to make your own beer.
If the idea of beer made in a plastic bag offends you, you may have the makings of an excellent beer brewer! In this case, if you have the cash, just go to your local brew store and ask them what you need to get started. Your initial cost for tools (carboys, airlocks, kettle, etc�) is likely to be around $50. This is money well spent, and if you continue to make your own beer, it is likely to save you more money than you spend within 2 months. You will then be on the path of brewing with malt extract. This is the simplest way to start learning how to brew, as it removes the mashing process from the equation. Once you learn how to make beer with malt extract, you can learn how to use grains to flavor your beer, and once you are familiar with the flavors and body the roasted grains add to your beer, you will be ready to learn all grain brewing.
The easiest beers to make are those that have the least amount of processes involved in making them. A variety of ingredients are easy to manage, you just measure it all out. Lagering, on the other hand, pretty much takes a walk in refrigerator, unless you have a very chill cellar in your house. Belgian ales are difficult to master as well, requiring extreme attention to cleanliness and process. We recommend an amber ale for the beginner, as these ales have few ingredients and the process of making them is quite clear cut. Learning how to make beer with the simple recipe of the amber ale will not have the challenge of these other styles. You will need no flavoring grains, just malt extract, hops, yeast, and water. And a pinch of Irish Moss thrown in at the end of the boil will make your own beer as clear and beautiful as any in any pint glass!
Remember that the process of how to make your own beer need not be complicated. Sometimes the best beers are the simplest to make. It is always better to start out simple and then, with experience, advance to more complicated brews. The quality of the beer you produce has more to do with acknowledging the limits of your craft than the exotic qualities of the recipe. Once you find out how easy it is to make your own beer, you will soon be teaching others how to make beer, expanding the network of home brewers in your town, explaining how to make beer while making new friends and connections at the same time.

Actually linux has MUCH better drivers nowadays than ALL of those mention *NIX versions and *SD distros(meaning the 3 major ones: open, net and plain old BSD).
Even for servers if I was going cheap today, I don't know that I'd bother with *SD any longer. Solaris is just about dead, and AFAICT IRIX IS already dead.

Women's Basketball Dials Long Distance To Defeat Kalamazoo
Saturday, January 24, 2009
By Chaz Amidon
GRAND RAPIDS The Knights began their 2008-09 season by totaling only 10 3-pointers in their first three games.
Now, with a new-found proficiency from the perimeter, Calvin is getting used to drilling around 10 long balls per contest.
Unleashing a torrent of 3-pointers in the opening minutes on Saturday, the Knights jumped out to a quick 9-0 lead against Kalamazoo and would not slow down, defeating the Hornets 66-40.
Kacy Cryderman poured in a season-high 12 points, Amber Benthem added nine, and Calvin shot 10-of-31 from the outside against winless Kalamazoo (0-9, 0-15).
Were finally getting that fire and that spark that we had at the beginning (of the year), said Cryderman. I just feel like all of us are realizing, Hey, we need to get out there and get this done.
Benthem, Sarah Partridge and Kristi Brummel each dialed in 3-pointers within the first minute of the game to catalyze a Knights perimeter game that sunk 14 3s in an 81-63 win over Olivet on Wednesday.
Calvin has now amassed 33 3-pointers during its current three-game win streak, its longest since opening the season with a 5-0 record.
Were just playing together really well, said Benthem. The 3s are coming and were working it around together. Were feeling relaxed out there.
Benthem began the game by nailing her first three attempts from beyond the arc, tallying all nine of her points before halftime. Leah Mattson and Jill Thomas each fired in 3-pointers in the final four minutes before the break, where the Knights led 36-18.
Calvin then broke open a devastating 11-0 run to start the second half. Cryderman ignited the run with back-to-back lay-ins, then gave the Knights a 42-18 lead with a put back later in the stretch.
I felt good about myself out there, said Cryderman, who has been sidelined with knee injuries the past two seasons. Coming back from my injury, its beginning to start to feel more natural.
The Knights forced Kalamazoo into committing 39 turnovers it was the Hornets third straight 30-plus turnover outing.
Calvin applied full-court pressure throughout the first half, inducing nine Kalamazoo turnovers within the first four minutes.
We were working a lot on our press lately we wanted to tire them out right away, said Benthem. Our bench is so deep we could just keep it going.
The Hornets, who had only seven active players on their roster, were led by a 12-point, 10-rebound performance by Nyemade Cooper, the MIAAs leading scorer (17.4 ppg). Michelle Maiuri also pumped in a double-double, scoring 11 points while hauling in a game-high 13 rebounds.
Calvin will now host first-place Saint Marys on Wednesday and will have a chance to even up the regular season series with the Belles, who picked up a 79-74 win over the Knights when they traveled to Notre Dame, Ind., back on Dec. 6.

1-How is the digestive system affected by constipation? 2-what could you do to prevent or alleviate this health condition
- print Print
- list Cite
The role of the large intestine is to eliminate wastes from undigested food matter as well as the resorption of the water found in food and in the digestive juices. This conservation of water helps prevent us from dehydrating. By reabsorbing water, it returns to the circulation and is available for use by the body's tissues. However, sometimes, too much water is resorbed and wastes begin to collect in the rectum, leading to constipation. This can be due to too little water consumed by the person, or not enough fiber and roughage in the diet. These items add bulk and stimulate peristaltic action, thus helping to move food through the digestive tract and wastes out of the digestive system in a timely manner. Therefore, it is very important to drink enough liquids and to eat a diet rich in fiber to prevent constipation. It is also important to eliminate solid wastes when a person feels the urge to do so, instead of holding those wastes in. This can also lead to constipation.
During constipation the large intestine is sucking too much water from the stool, in order to prevent constipation a person should eat a lot of greens as they are mostly made out of water and this could provide enough water to soften the stool, the person should also drink a lot of water.

Self-storage operators in Hawaii are enjoying increased occupancy, partly due to the multi-generations of families living at one residence.
Rather than throw out family heirlooms, furniture and other sentimental items, Hawaiians are turning to self-storage to safeguard their belongings. Hawaii also has a low square footage per capita, with few attics or basements, leaving homeowners few options for storage.
Naoi Yuen, director of business development at Hawaii Self-Storage, said the demand for storage continues to grow. There are 49 facilities in Oahu, according to Yuen. Nearly half were built between 2005 and 2008.
However, the self-storage boom has led to over building in some markets. The competition has led many operators to offer incentives including free Wi-Fi, 24-hour access, conference rooms and climate control.

AFC East top 25, No. 24: Bills C Eric Wood
Counting down the top 25 players in the AFC East, one player at a time, one day at a time.
Why Eric Wood?
Wood might be higher on the list if he weren't so frequently subject to the injury report. He has not yet played a full 16-game season in his four-year career, and he has missed nine games over the past two years, including the final seven games in 2011.
When he has played, though, he's been superb. Quantifying offensive line play can be difficult, but according to Pro Football Focus, Wood allowed two quarterback hurries, one hit and no sacks in his nine games in 2011. He followed that up with another solid line of four hurries, three hits and two sacks in 14 games in 2012.
Let's not forget his contributions in the running game, where he has anchored a line that has ranked in the top five in yards per carry the past two years. Some of their most successful runs were behind Wood; the Bills earned 4.38 adjusted line yards on runs up the middle according to Football Outsiders.
Now that the Bills are moving on without Wood's fellow draft-classmate Andy Levitre at left guard, the Bills will be counting on Wood to stay healthy in 2013. He is a key to their line, but without him, things could fall apart quickly.
Did you know?
Wood was only the second offensive linemen in Louisville history be taken in the first round. The other is a local legend: Patriots left tackle Bruce Armstrong.
Check back every morning as we reveal one player a day on our way to No. 1 in the top 25.

(HockeyStL) -- Playing in his third game in four days, Brian Elliott lifted the St. Louis Blues to a 4-1 win over the Minnesota Wild on Monday.
Elliott didn't get the start, but answered the call when Jaroslav Halak suffered a lower-body injury late in the first period. From there Elliott, who hadn't played an NHL game since March 5, stopped 19 of 20 shots.
The Wild's only goal came after Elliott was unable to hold onto the puck while his team was on the penalty kill. Dany Heatley capitalized on the goal to tie the game 1-1 early in the second period.
It marked his first win since January 31.
Elliott returned to the Blues after being sent to the AHL-affiliate Peoria Rivermen for conditioning. He appeared in two games, including a shutout on Saturday.

CITY ROOM; Piano Was Meant for School, But Principal Took It Home
By ERIC P. NEWCOMER
Published: June 12, 2012
People take all sorts of things from the workplace: pens, paper, maybe a stapler now and again, but what about a grand piano?
The principal of a city adult-education center in the Bronx admitted to doing just that.
In 2007, a teacher at the Bronx Adult Learning Center on East Tremont Avenue donated a Weber grand piano to the program. In 2009, the principal of the center, Amoye Neblett, hired movers to take it to his home in Brooklyn, Mr. Neblett stated in a settlement with the city's Conflicts of Interest Board that was announced on Monday.
It was not immediately clear what model the piano was, but even the smallest Weber baby grand is five feet long and weighs about 600 pounds, a Weber dealer said.
Mr. Neblett, who according to his personal Web site grew up listening to the keyboard giants Thelonious Monk and Horace Silver, enjoyed the piano for only a few months before the teacher who donated it noticed it missing, according to a report by the Education Department's special commissioner of investigations.
When she asked Mr. Neblett about it, he told her ''I took it home,'' the report states, adding that when she told him she considered his actions theft, he replied in an e-mail:
I will deliver the piano to your home or whatever else you want but it cannot go to th [sic] school. The only reason it was removed was because we cannot keep it there. Nothing was stolen from you and I appreciate you trying to resolve this in a civil manner.
His lawyer then sent her an e-mail saying that Mr. Neblett would deliver the piano to any location in the city except the learning center and that if her instructions for delivery were not received within three days Mr. Neblett would consider the matter closed, the report states.
Instead, she contacted the authorities. Mr. Neblett told them that the expansion of a program at the learning center had meant there was no more room for the piano there, the report says. But in 2010, he agreed to return the piano to the Department of Education and to resign, the conflicts board said.
Mr. Neblett, 58, whose 26-year career in the public-school system also included stints as assistant principal at an elementary school in Brooklyn and 15 years as a classroom teacher, has also agreed to pay the conflicts board a $1,000 fine, the board said Monday.
In other actions against city education workers, the conflicts board announced Monday that it had fined a teacher $1,000 for making a bogus parking placard for her personal use.
The teacher, Maryann Mercado of Public School 75 in Bushwick, Brooklyn, borrowed one of the school's 11 official parking placards and photocopied it. Armed with her fake pass, Ms. Mercado was able to park her personal car in the restricted zone near the school without getting ticketed.
This is a more complete version of the story than the one that appeared in print.

Monday's episode of General Hospital ushered back on to the canvas f-time Daytime Emmy winner Jonathan Jackson as Lucky Spencer in short story arc. Jackson came back to GH to share some final scenes with Tony Geary (Luke) before the soap icon leaves the canvas. Over the years, Geary has made no-bones about that top on his list of favorite scene partners is Jackson.
In story, it was Lucky who saved the day for Luke and Laura (Genie Francis), by firing bullets as Frank Smith and his henchmen, who had his parents at gunpoint. After some shoot-em-up moments, Lucky, Luke and Laura were reunited again in a tender moment for all longtime fans of the ABC soap opera. Lulu (Emme Rylan) even got in on the action and got to share a hug from her big brother
As Smith laid bleeding out and was trying to get to his gun to shoot his nemesis', Luke finally put an end to his life 20 years after he thought he had done in the first place. Before, Luke sent Smith to hell for eternity, Smith utters some words about "Lucky being in on it."
When Luke questioned Lucky, it seemed that Lucky put himself in harm's way intentionally, because of little Jake! – The believed-to-be dead four-year-old son of Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) and Jason's (Billy Miller), who Lucky raised as his son!
Viewers recall that it was back around March of 2011 when news broke that then GH head writer Bob Guza was going to kill off the adorable cutie patootie via a hit and run … and it would be revealed that none other than Luke Spencer, who was drinking at the time, was responsible for it.
Meanwhile on yesterday's episode with Elizabeth remembering little Jake in front of big Jake (AKA Jason), and clearly Sam (Kelly Monaco) and Jason being drawn closer to one another now that they are working together, could this be the added wrinkle that would be thrown into continue to keep Sam and Jason apart?
In addition, in a recent issue of Soap Opera Digest it was noted from current General Hospital head writer Ron Carlivati, that Lucky's return is not the end of the story, and that the head scribe wanted there to be some other component that had a lasting impact on the show and on the story. Is this what he was referring to?
After Monday's airshow, social media was abuzz with some GH fans saying that they were very against history being re-written yet again, while others who detested the original story of killing-off the little boy were hoping that Jake could be alive after all, although it seems implausible on many levels for many fans. And still there are those who even went and re-watched the five minutes following the original death of Jake, and related: Elizabeth saw no car, and didn't even hear a crash, but found her son at the side of her yard, not on the road.
The debate is on: Would you like it to turn out that little Jake is alive? Are you intrigued by the story? Are you against it? What did you think of the return of Jonathan Jackson? Weigh-in below!

Asked today about defending a deep pass to Packers wide receiver James Jones in Sunday's win at Green Bay, 49ers cornerback Tarell Brown offered a reminder that it takes more than athleticism to cover NFL wideouts.
Brown, of course, had to keep up with Jones when Aaron Rodgers launched a pass down the left sideline on 2nd-and-8 from midfield. But he ultimately broke up the play by looking into Jones' eyes (a receiver's eyes get bigger when the ball is coming, he said) and picking up on the cue of the home crowd, which got loud in anticipation of a big pay.
"You know the ball is coming to you," Brown said. "And you're in attack mode."
Brown and the rest of the 49ers secondary will likely need all available senses on Sunday night when the Lions arrive with All-Pro wideout Calvin Johnson, who led the NFL in receiving yards (1,681), ranked second in touchdowns (16) and was fourth in receptions (96) last year.
Johnson didn't practice today due to a foot injury, but he played the entire season-opening 27-23 win against St. Louis and "seems to be fine, judging from the portion of practice open to the media," reported detroitlions.com.
Johnson was just fine against the Rams – catching six of seven passes thrown his way for 111 yards. He also made the quarterback Matthew Stafford's game-winning, five-yard touchdown pass to running back Kevin Smith possible by attracting about 40 percent of St. Louis' defense his way.
"If you look at the play, there were four people on him," Lions coach Jim Schwartz said of the game-winner with 10 seconds left. "The play was designed for Calvin. We make no mistake about that. We were trying to hit Calvin on the back line, but when they slough four guys off on him – they had him doubled and also had two linebackers underneath – when that happened that freed our running back up to be wide open in the flat. That's the dynamic that Calvin brings. It's very rare that he's not doubled, some way, somehow."
Last year, the 49ers mixed up their coverages against Johnson, who had seven catches for 113 yards in a 25-19 loss. San Francisco did keep him out of the end zone after Johnson opened the season by setting an NFL record with nine touchdowns in the first five games.
Brown said he's "geeked up" for the challenge of facing Stafford and Johnson, who at 6-foot-5 and 236 pounds, has a 45-inch vertical jump, 82-inch wingspan and has been clocked at 4.35 seconds in the 40-yard dash.
"They get him the ball," Brown said. "He's the featured guy. Everybody knows that. The thing for us is to play our style of football. Go out there and try to be physical. Go out and there and get our hands on him. Try to slow that guy down. He's going to make catches, but you want to limit his yards after the catch. And go out there and compete with him for every jump ball."
** Stafford on Alex Smith's stretch of 185 straight passes without an interception: "It's what their system is built around, protecting the football, playing good defense, taking what the defenses gives you and playing great special teams. That's what they do. They have a very good running game, Alex is playing very well and obviously they upgraded their receiver position in the offseason. They are attacking all parts of the field now and he's playing great. I've got to give a lot of credit to Alex and that system, he's playing well."
** Running back Brandon Jacobs (knee) and wide receiver Ted Ginn (ankle) remain sidelined after missing Sunday's season opener. Both Jacobs and Ginn worked on a side field with trainers during the portion of practice open to the media.

Chinatown and High Line Park
New York Travel Blog› entry 17 of 18 › view all entries
... after crossing Brooklyn Bridge, I picked up my mother-in-law from work and we started walking toward Chinatown. I've always wanted to take a stroll there. The sun started to come out and raised the temperature to approx. 28 degrees Celsius. We decided we would take the subway to our next stop - The Highline Park.
Along the way we got some Turkish food, and turns out that there is one food that New Yorkers have not managed to make better than it is in the original country. Yikes. The doner meat was tasteless and the sauce didn't have an ounce of garlic. What's up with that?
Anywho, we walked down 14th St to the west side of Manhattan called the Meatpacking District. The Highline Park starts at Gansevoort St. (by 13th St.) If you walk down 14th you can't miss it. There are several inlets along the way too or you can start at the northern end, which isn't far from Madison Square Garden.
The weather was perfect for visiting the High Line. We had such a great time exploring and enjoying the views of the city.
Unfortunately that's it for this visit. I'm leaving on a train tomorrow. Headed to Maryland.

My friend and blogger, Tammie Nelson of Simple. Healthy. Tasty. came over to our home for a visit the other night and brought her famous Good n' Healthy Peanutty cookies.
They were so good, I couldn't stop eating them. Their taste and texture is perfect!
Healthy Peanutty Cookies
Whisk together first 5 ingredients. In a separate bowl combine flour, soda, salt. Add to the peanut butter mixture and mix well. Fold in oats, carob chips, and chopped nuts. Drop on oiled cookie sheet. Bake at 350º for approximately 8 minutes.
I had to triple this recipe, since one batch wouldn't last more than five minutes in my house.

for readers unaware- Saint Maximilian Kolbe [Fr. Kolbe] promoted total consecration to the Immaculata. I recommend to all Catholics to learn of this and considering enrolling themselves as a member of the Militia of the Immaculata (MI). It brings many graces, belonging utterly to Our Lady.

Just a shout-out to Fr. Maximilian, whose prayers and friendship reached across time and brought me back home to the Church. Love you, Fr. Max.
