Accepting Edward
Bella gets a stomach bug and during her illness, Charlie finally accepts that Edward loves her and will take good care of her when they are married.
A little random. Inspired by when i was sick and i wished i had an Edward to take care of me :) So jealous of Bella
1. Stomach Flu
Rating 4/5 Word Count 1838 Review this Chapter
I couldn't help looking at the clock on the microwave several times during the few minutes that I spent doing the dishes. Charlie and I had just finished our dinner and he had promptly gotten up and headed for the TV. He was pouting. While we ate I had told him that Edward was coming to pick me up at 7. Somehow, he was still in denial that I had chosen him. I knew he would be upset when we told him we were getting married but this was just ridiculous. The wedding was in a few short months and he needed to accept Edward sometime.
It was only a few minutes till 7 and I ran up to my room get a jacket before Edward came. The doorbell rang while I hurried back down the stairs. I passed Charlie on the couch and he skillfully ignored me. I yelled goodbye to him anyway before I opened the door. And then my Edward was smiling his crooked smile down at me. After all this time it still made my heart jump. I took a few deep breaths while I smiled back and he reached out to take my hand. I gladly put my warm fingers into his icy ones and started down the walk to his car, marveling at the gorgeous creature walking beside me
Always the gentleman, he walked me to the passenger side of his Volvo and opened the door for me. He didn't let go of my hand until I was safely into the seat.
"Why is Charlie so upset?" he asked me as he was pulling out of my short driveway. I didn't say anything back but looked out the window trying to avoid his gaze. What was I supposed to say? Well, he's angry that I love you and would give anything for me to be marrying Jacob instead? That would go over really well. Edward seemed to have picked up on the topic of Charlie's thoughts and my silence though. "Oh…It's alright Bella. It's not your fault he doesn't like me. If it's anyone's fault its mine." I opened my mouth to protest and tell him that he did absolutely nothing wrong and Charlie was just a stubborn, overprotective father. Before I could get more than two words out, Edward reached over and put his fingers on my lips. "Its alright Bella. It doesn't matter in the slightest if Charlie likes me or not, as long as you love me, that's all that matters." He flashed me one of the most contagious smiles I've ever seen.
He felt my lips turn up into a smile underneath his fingers and moved them to the side of my face. I turned my head to the side and planted a kiss on his palm. "I love you," I assured him. He was so unbelievably understanding.
We pulled into his driveway and he parked in the garage. Alice and Esme were both sitting at the seldom-used dinning room table. The table was covered in papers of patterns and colors and different fabrics. I recognized it at once as a wedding planning session. It was probably strange that I had no desire to be a part of the wedding preparations but I really tried not to think about it too much. Alice still kept me pretty up to date on major decisions to make sure I was on the same page but mostly I stayed out of it and let her handle it.
"Oh Bella!" Alice practically squealed when I walked in to great them both. "I'm so excited! You're going to love it, I promise. We finally nailed down the decision on the flowers and now I can see a pretty clear picture of what the room is going to look like. It's beautiful, isn't it Edward?"
"It looks wonderful Alice. You both are doing a fantastic job," Edward assured her as he came in behind me and wrapped his arms around my shoulders. He smiled at my attempt to conceal the grimace on my face and leaned down to kiss the edge of my jaw.
"Fine, go on both of you. I can see how this is paining you so much Bella," she gave in sarcastically. "Just let us work and thank me later when you appreciate it." I leapt at the chance to leave the room without having to discus the minor details of the table settings. As we left the dinning room, I heard Alice mumble something like "unbelievable."
"What would you like to do tonight, love?"
"Will you play for me? You haven't in so long, I miss it," I told him. I loved to hear him play his piano. It was the most beautiful sound in the world, apart from his voice. He didn't respond but simply pulled me along to the piano and sat me down beside him on the bench. His fingers immediately started to run along the keys, almost blurs because they were going so fast. The music that came was simply magical. I sighed and was perfectly content to listen to him forever. When he stopped after several minutes, he put his arm around my shoulder and pulled me closer to him. His fingers lifted my chin up so I was looking at his amazing face. "Thank you. It was beautiful."
"So are you," he told me in his velvet voice. He leaned down and pressed his lips to mine. As always, I couldn't contain my desire to be closer to him. I braided my fingers into his hair. All too soon, he leaned back and broke my hold on him. He chuckled lightly at my pouting expression. "Shall we go upstairs?" This time I didn't answer but got up from the bench and started my way up to his room. He came from behind me and swept me up into his stone arms. I gasped at the surprise and then smiled at the concerned looked on his face. He saw that I was okay and smiled as well. He ran at inhuman speed up to his room.
We spent several hours in his room talking and listening to music. I asked him about his most recent hunting trip, which he, Emmet and Jasper had only returned from yesterday. He assured me that he had a good time and even found a mountain lion. I always worried that he didn't enjoy himself on the trips because he worried about me the whole time. If he had to leave, he might as well have a good time.
He had also demanded that I recap basically every minute of my life from the time he left to the time I went to bed the night he returned. For what seemed like the millionth time, I tried to convince him that my life was not that interesting without him. He still didn't believe me, so I had to tell him all about my boring weekend, doing the laundry, grocery shopping, and going to the library. The highlight was when I went with Alice to see a movie in Port Angelos. In the middle of describing the movie in detail for him, I suddenly got a wave of nausea and froze. My hand went to my stomach and I inhaled a sharp breath.
"Bella? What happened?" Edward demanded me to tell him. I wanted to answer but was afraid of what else might come out of my mouth if I opened it. "What's wrong Bella?" He asked more urgently. I weighed the risks of moving to the bathroom against puking on Edward. I decided I didn't want to risk the second option so I inhaled another deep breath through my nose and went for the bathroom door. I made it just in time. As I bent over the toilet, I felt Edward behind me, with his hand gently rubbing my back. I really didn't want him to see this but I was a little busy to tell him to leave. I doubted if he would anyway.
When it seemed like I was done, he lifted me in his arms and set me down on the bathroom counter to look at me. He put his hands on my face and looked me in the eyes. I felt so horrible all of a sudden that I couldn't even blush. I closed my eyes and swayed a little. Edward held me against his cold chest while I sat on the counter. His skin felt wonderful against mine.
"Carlisle!" he called out for his father to come look me over. "Bella, what's wrong?" Edward asked, "Did you eat something funny?" I shook my head against his shoulder with my eyes closed. Then I felt another set of hands on my shoulder and I knew Carlisle was there to see what was wrong. Edward leaned me back a little so Carlisle could see me more clearly. I kept my eyes closed
"What happened?" he asked Edward.
"I don't have any idea. One second she was talking to me and then the next she went completely pale and sprinted off to the bathroom." Carlisle's hands felt my forehead and checked my pulse.
"Do you feel sick Bella?" He asked me. There was no way I was opening my mouth so I just nodded. I stopped quickly because it was making me dizzy. "Did this just start? Or were you sick earlier too?" This time I shook my head to answer his second question, hoping he understood what I meant.
"No, Carlisle she was fine earlier. It just hit her a minute ago. She feels hot too," Edward said with panic in his voice.
"I know Edward, she has a fever. I think she probably has the stomach flu. You should get her home so she can sleep and you need to tell Charlie what's wrong," Carlisle instructed. I really didn't like the sound of moving but I did need to get home for Charlie.
"Bella, honey, do you feel well enough to go home?" Edward asked me. I honestly didn't know so I shrugged. I still didn't open my eyes and I was seriously exhausted now.
"Maybe you should let her rest for a few minutes first and see if she's okay. Then have someone drive you so you can sit with her in the car," Carlisle's cool voice suggested. "I'll send Alice out to get her some medicine and when she gets back you should leave."
"Bella? I'm going to take you back to my bed okay?" Edward told me. I didn't know if leaving the bathroom was smart but I was already in his arms out of the bathroom. "You're going to be just fine Bella. I'll take good care of you and you will be back to normal in a few days at the most." He laid me out on his bed and sat beside me. He pushed my hair out of my face and left his hands on my hot face. I was so tired that I barely heard him hum my lullaby before I fell asleep.

Private businesses and employers in 12 states to most recently include Wisconsin are faced with the decision to allow concealed weapons carry on company premises. The argument against banning weapons lies largely in the statistics and in the liability. The argument for banning weapons lies largely in perception of safety and in the ability to attract, retain and engage a productive workforce comprised of people unaccustomed to concealed weapons carry and its perceived threats.
Legal counsel and insurance underwriters are largely recommending employer silence on this issue. Silence allows lawful carry without interference. The US Library of Congress reports crime reduction in every state enacting Concealed Carry. Violent crimes are reduced 5-22%. The most popularly referenced FBI report utilizes a 7% reduction statistic.
As a global firm, we have had the opportunity to work with many states across the nation prior to Wisconsin's recent Concealed Carry enactment. With a second hub in AZ and service to the Scottsdale Chamber's Public Policy Advisory Council, we are no strangers to public weapons carry and private business rights to "Opt Out."
Wisconsin employers are inundating us with questions, and we are pleased to provide an extraordinary knowledge base here. At the time of this report, the state of Wisconsin is not protecting employers from liability if choosing "weapon free zones." Specifically, if an individual is harmed because he or she was not allowed to carry weapon per lawful right, the company can be held liable. Additionally, it is argued that the posting of "no weapons" signs specifically attracts crime similar to a resident posting a sign "not monitored by security system."
The argument for banning weapons lies largely in the perception of safety and records of specific incidents. While statistically it is argued that crime is reduced by arming law abiding citizens, the fact remains that with concealed carry acts, individuals who shouldn't be licensed still manage to get licensed. It is also evident that individuals use poor judgment in what constitutes "self defense," improperly trained individuals gain access to weapons and accidents happen. What stings in minds are images of Columbine, Virginia Tech, "going postal" and a wealth of related tragedies. For many these images outweigh statistical probabilities and facts. Most are not aware of this report… among 25,000 2009 murders, less than 1% were committed by concealed carry permit holders.
Businesses which allow concealed carry on their property are immune from liability arising from that decision. Employers who choose to allow concealed carry without interference will adapt by removing policies and handbook language which prohibit the carry of weapons on premises. However, we recommend substituting this language with the requirement that weapons must be lawful and licensed.
Employers who choose to "opt out" will create a "weapon free zone." Employers may choose to prohibit concealed carry during work activities, and if they do so, then language must be modified and signs must be posted. The sign must:
• Be at least 5 inches by 7 inches.
• State that concealed or open firearms are prohibited in the building or on the premises.
• Specify the area to which the prohibition applies.
• Be placed in a prominent place near all of the entrances to the part of the building to which the restriction applies or near all probable access points to the grounds or land to which the restriction applies, as applicable, where any individual entering the building, grounds, or land can be reasonably expected to see the sign.
• Businesses should consider the universal "no" symbol of a circle around a picture of a firearm with a slash across the middle of the circle, indicating that firearms are prohibited.
An employer may not prohibit an employee, as a condition of employment, from carrying a concealed weapon in the employee's own motor vehicle, even if the employee uses his or her vehicle in the course of employment or if the motor vehicle is on company grounds. Some employers are creating a policy that vehicles containing weapons on company premises must remain locked at all times.
HRS is active in helping craft and/or review employee handbook policies on this matter. For those who wish to "opt out," the sample "Weapons Ban" policy to follow is one of the alternatives available. Customization may be expected.
Weapons Ban Policy Sample
The company complies fully with all applicable federal, state and local laws to include the Concealed Carry Act. Weapons and firearms of any type are strictly prohibited within company premises at all times. Company premise includes property owned, leased or controlled by the company. Company premises also include anywhere that company business is conducted, such as customer locations, vendor/associate locations, trade shows, restaurants or any venue visited for the purpose of business. Weapons include, but are not limited to, guns, knives or swords with blades over four inches in length, explosives, and any chemical whose purpose is to cause harm to another person.
Regardless of whether an employee possesses a concealed weapons permit or is allowed by law to possess a weapon, weapons are prohibited on any company property or in any location in which the employee represents the company for business purposes, including those listed above.
Possession of a weapon can only be specifically authorized by a company officer to allow security personnel or a trained employee to have a weapon on company property when this possession is determined necessary to secure the safety and security of company employees. Only a company officer may authorize the carrying of or use of a weapon within company premises. Any violation of this policy or federal, state or local laws which relate to weapons shall also result in immediate discipline up to and including termination.

Two families linked to Mennonite colleges playfully provided Harrisonburg, Va. residents with a lesson in friendship this election season.
The couples, each with a son and daughter who love socializing with each other, put up opposing political placards before their homes on opposite sides of their street, not far from the EMU campus. Mark Metzler Sawin, a Goshen College graduate who teaches history at EMU, occupies the "blue" residence with his wife Erika, another Goshen grad. Two EMU alumni make their home in the "red" house.
When the children asked their parents what this meant to their friendships, the families put up the second set of signs pointing to the other yard: "And we're STILL friends."
The photo has garnered more than 14,000 "likes" on the Facebook page for the non-profit group The Other 98%.
Seminary alum calls for Election Day Communion
Another alumnus, Mark Schloneger (a grad of Goshen and of EMU's seminary), wrote a CNN blog explaining the call for an election-day communion. Posted on Nov. 3, 2012, the blog attracted over 3,400 comments and nearly 4,000 likes in less than three days.
More than 800 congregations, schools, and groups in all 50 states and Washington, D.C., have declared that they are holding an election-day communion. Seventy-one of these communions are in Virginia. The Virginia list includes Baptist, Episcopal, Methodist, and Mennonite churches, including these in the Harrisonburg area: Community Mennonite, Lindale Mennonite, Park View Mennonite, Weavers Mennonite, and Zion Mennonite.

I thought this would really be easy. Boy, was I wrong. I had never counted the albunms that I thought were significant to me before. Limiting it by years helped but not much. I finally had to decide on my own groundrules. First, only one album per artist is allowed. This leaves out some really good stuff, but I had to cut somewhere. Generally, this will be the first album of the group/singer that I really took notice of, even if some of their later work might have been more influential. Second, only music albums will be included. I am a great fan of stand-up comedy and have a good collection of albums starting with Stan Freburg and Bob Newhart, moving through Bill Cosby and the Smothers Brothers, with a little Steve Martin and Jeff Foxworthy thrown in at the end. But none of those made the cut, not even my very first album, The Button Down Mind of Bob Newhart, 1960. With those rules in mind, here is my list:
1. Oklahoma! (soundtrack) 1955
This was the very first album I remember my family buying that wasn't a 78. I loved the music then and still like it just as much today. I have seen more productions than I can remember. Two of my sons played Curly in high school. I have seen it indoors and out. But I always remember the "Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry" line from that very first LP.
2. Kingston Trio…from the Hungry i 1959
While I have very eclectic taste in music, folk is my favorite. I got my first introduction to folk music from the Kingston Trio and have been hooked ever since. They did a lot of good stuff, but nothing better than this live performance from the Hungry i.
3. Joan Baez (album) 1960
Continuing the folk theme, Joan Baez is responsible for raising my awareness of the place of music in the fight for social justice. As a child of the 60s, I was never a big Dylan fan, but I loved his songs when sung by Joanie or Peter, Paul & Mary.
4. Elvis-Blue Hawaii (album) 1961
How could I be a child of the 50s and 60s and not include a Elvis album, but which one? When in doubt, go with the first. I bought a lot more later, but this one started it all. And this from a boy who once helped form a "We Hate Elvis" Club.
5. Peter, Paul and Mary (album) 1962
See what I said above about Joan Baez and the Kinston Trio. I really credit my wife's sister Anne for introducing me to the best of all the folk groups.
6. Beach Boys-Surfin' Safari 1962
I know many of you would not choose Surfin Safari as one of the top Beach Boys albums, but it is the one that brought me into the fold. Of course, I still think they stole some of their concepts from Jan and Dean, but that's another story. And yes, I think Pet Sounds is one of the greatest albums of all time.
7. The Beatles-Please Please Me 1963
What more can I say, "Listen, do you want to know a secret . . ." This is the first album my college room mate bought for his brand new stereo in 1963.
8. The Best of The Animals (1966 album)
The only "best of" album I included, primarily because it has my favorite song, "The House of the Rising Sun" and the most popular song among the GIs in VietNam, "We gotta get out of this place, if it's the last thing we ever do!"
9. Arlo Guthrie-Alice's Restaurant (album) 1967
No folk song fan's list of albums would be complete without at least one song from the Guthrie family and Alice's Restaurant has long been a family favorite.
10. Simon & Garfunkel-Bookends 1968
This was actually a little past my teen years but definitely a big influence in my life. I think Simon and Garfunkel had the best sound of the 60s and early 70s. I was sad when Dave Guard left the Kingston Trio, I was upset when the Beatles broke up, I was ticked off when Dean Martin left Jerry Lewis, but I was devastated when Paul and Art parted ways.
If I went to go on to my 20s and 30s it would include a lot of John Denver and Harry Chapin, but that will have to wait for another post.

SAN BERNARDINO — A suspected drunken driver sped through San Bernardino streets at 100 mph Monday night before slamming into two cars and injuring four people.
A San Bernardino police officer saw someone in a Chevy Suburban driving recklessly and almost causing a crash in the 1100 block of North Waterman Avenue at 6:40 p.m.
The officer tried to catch up to the driver, Dennis I. Felton, 34, of San Bernardino, who was driving as fast as 100 mph, police said.
Felton ran a red light and crashed into an Infinity G35 at the corner of Base Line and Tippecanoe Avenue. The Infinity then struck a Nissan pickup truck.
The Infinity driver, 26-year-old Tily Howard and her passenger, suffered serious but not life-threatening injuries.
After crashing into the Infinity, Felton struck Victor Rosetti, 22, who was driving a Mercedes.
Paramedics took Rosetti to Arrowhead Regional Medical Center in Colton for treatment of shoulder pain. Howard and her passenger were taken to Loma Linda University Medical Center.
Felton, who received an injury to his foot, was initially taken to Arrowhead, but was then booked into West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga on suspicion of felony evading and driving while under the influence.

s if to
herald the green itself, church bells and carillons regularly sound
over New Haven's gracious and amply proportioned green in the
center of town. A distinctive presence for more than 350 years, the
New Haven Green not only serves as a focal point of religious,
civic, and commercial activity in this coastal town on Long Island
Sound, but as a relic of the oldest formally planned community in
Settlement of the mercantile port began in
1638 by a company of English colonists who came from London via
Boston under the leadership of the merchant Theophilus Eaton and
the Reverend John Davenport, a Puritan minister. The new town,
originally called Quinnipiac, was laid out by 1641 on a nine-square
grid a plan reminiscent of ancient Roman military camps covering an
area measuring a half-mile square. While the eight surrounding
squares were divided into house lots, the center square was
reserved for the green. This common land was the site of the first
meetinghouse and a burying ground. Because New Haven was envisioned
as a thriving commercial port, however, the green was also
conceived as a trade center and town square, and was in fact known
as "the market place" into the 1700s. It contained the town's watch
house (built by 1645), the jail, and the first school, all of which
are believed to have been located near the corner of present-day
College and Elm streets.
series of improvements to the New Haven Green indicate that the
common was regarded by townspeople as an important asset early in
its history. Grass was planted by 1654, and shade trees, including
elms and sycamores, were added by the 1750s. Institutional
architecture was another attribute: after New Haven was declared
co-capital, with Hartford, of the Colony of Connecticut in 1701,
the Connecticut State House (1717) was built on the green's
northwest side.

Welcome to my blog and the place where I will post my photos and musings from my life as an ultrarunner. My nickname "Shining" was given to me by a group of very special students after I finished my first 100-miler, the Massanutten Mountain Trails 100. They were the inspiration that enabled me to finish this awesome race, and I try to live each day with a "shining" attitude!

Catawba Run-Around 2009
Yesterday I celebrated the arrival of spring (and the first day of spring break) with the Catawba Run Around, an informal "non-event" gathering of ultrarunning friends. This was my fifth CRA; in 2004, I ventured down to this little mountain valley west of Roanoke as an ultra newbie, knowing virtually no one in the VHTRC and certainly clueless about "adventure training runs" in the mountains. 35 miles and 8,800 feet of climb later, I emerged a changed ultrarunner: I had gained more confidence and more appreciation for the incredible natural beauty that awaited me in the sport. Most importantly, I made some dear friends in the process and officially became an active member of the VHTRC.
The CRA uses some of the most scenic trails in Virginia: an older, now-retired section of the Appalachian Trail known simply to us as "North Mountain" as well as other trails that encircle the Catawba Valley. Because it's not an "event", it's not directed by "anyone", but runners somehow get excellent aid at three different locations and a Patagonia shirt at the finish! The CRA ranks right up there with many well-known ultras in terms of organization, schwag, trail beauty, toughness, and fellowship. It is the essence of the sport.
The best part of the CRA for me? Besides the gorgeous views, fantastic trail, and outstanding support, the best part of the day is always watching the others finish while eating and drinking and resting my sore legs! And did I mention the 8,800 feet of climb in 35 miles? It's a 35 miler that runs like a 50. My best time was in 2008, when I ran 9:13 in the easier, counter clockwise direction. This year, we ran it in the harder clockwise direction on the first hot day of the year (temps were in the mid-70s) and I ran 9:24. Not too shabby for an old lady in the heat.
Here are some of my favorite pics below:
The Green Team of Michele Harmon, me and Jill Quivey at the start
David Horton gets pumped for another CRA (he ran the loop the day before, so this is day 2 of his CRA double)
The group at the start
Sunrise hits North Mountain, a 12-mile stretch without aid that takes about 3 hours to complete
Front runners Aaron Schwartzbard, Mike Mason, and Clark Zealand (who set a CRA record of 6:50) pose for the camera while descending Dragon's Tooth
23 miles later, a view of where I had come from--North Mountain-- from Tinker Cliffs
Rebecca Byerly, Bobby Gill and me on top of McAfee's Knob, 10 miles from the finish
9+ hours later, I am treated to this view of the the final mile to the finish and of Dragon's Tooth, the first big climb of the day!
The icing on the CRA cake: Dinner and fellowship at the Homeplace. All you can eat fried chicken, mashed potatoes, green beans, corn...mmmmmmm.
See the rest of my CRA photos here.

Hi Sophie,
Discovered your blog through Devon's. Very nice and informative. I'd like to know more about the injury prevention you mentioned in your Feb 14th entry. Any videos or instructional materials available?
I used to live in Charlottesville (grad school at UVA, ran O-Hill many times and Shamrock Marathon once)! It's a beautiful area and I miss it sometimes. The mountains and campus in the fall were breathtaking!
Thanks for sharing!

The March 2009 issue of RW has photos and descriptions of all the exercises. No doubt they will have them all up on www.runnersworld.com soon. They are the real deal for ITBS and I am sure other imbalance injuries. Ask your PT for some ideas.
In the meantime, good luck training for Miwok!!

Hi Sophie....
Am I ever sorry I missed this fantastic run! I had the pleasure of joining you all for 3 of the years and they are some of my best memories, along with the Homeplace and the Billybob story (I was in the room when this happened).
Great run for you, btw....looks like you are about to have another great year!
(Thanks for the CM photo link)
Maybe see you at MMT? I'll be course marking with Kevin.

Hi Sophie,
Steve Pero sent me over here to find out about the Grindstone 100. He says you ran it last year and I see you plan to run it again this year.
Wonderful photos! Looks like a great day...
I am also a mother of three and ultrarunner. I live in CT. I love running trails. I tried to run the VT 100 last year, but I didn't like the course -- too much road. Too hot. So I am looking at Grindstone. I like the 6 pm start time and the tough trails.
Do you know when registration opens? Does it fill up quickly (ie, do I have to be online the minute registration opens?)
I greatly appreciate any info.

Found your blog trying to search for running with dogs. I have an Aussie (a 6 month old boy), I was wondering how much you were running with yours at this age? I've been doing 3-4 miles once a week (I run at about 8min/mi). All trails.
Any info would be great!

I started my Aussie on trails at about 6 months going for an hour max about 1x week. When he was 1 year, and the weather was really cool, he was able to hang for 2.5 hours on trail no problem. Now he is 1.5 and was recently able to run for a 5 hour trail run (lots of climbs so we were walking those) and lots of water/creek stops/swims. That was the longest I see taking him and certainly not on a day warmer than 70 degrees (it was a breezy 70 on the 5 hour and he had plenty of water and easy running, but I think that's the limit). Of course, he looks at me every morning inquiring on the running plan so we go out at least 1x on the weekend for an easy hour just to keep him happy. Now that it's warming up here in VA, I see an hour on the trail being the limit given his coat (long) and size (he's large for an Aussie). The rest of the week he runs and runs and runs with his brother.
Aussies are the perfect trail dog. Have fun with yours!

Local residents packed the corner of Greene St. and Carpenter Lane in West Mt. Airy on Sunday for Weavers Way's annual Vegan Fest. Attendees feasted on a smorgasbord of vegan entrees: black bean chipotle dip, smoked apple sausage, tofu and veggie dogs, pizza made with Daiya cheese, vegan tuna salad made with Nayonaise, "Groothies" (smoothies made from greens and fresh fruit) and even – chocolate.
This year's festival coincided with National Meat Out Day, whose organizers challenge participants to "kick the meat habit" and let their taste buds experience a variety of vegan delights.
Jonathan McGoran, of Weavers Way, said the co-op wanted to provide information about the benefits of a vegan diet and educate people on how to do it responsibly.
"We offer a lot of vegan food," McGoran said. "We wanted to support and provide a venue for people. It is an opportunity for people to try a lot of vegan food and learn more about the vegan diet."
Attendees munched on samples from Raw Revolution, Fresh Tofu, Field Roast, Kashi, Newman's Organics, Amy's, Hempzels, Get Real…Get Raw, Sweet Freedom, Little Jimmie's and many more.
Participants could also sample products from Leaping Bunny, Nwenna Kai, Fitbliss Organics, Plantfusion and Crazy Rumors.
Lisa Maguire, founder of the nonprofit Get Real…Get Raw, gave participants samples of her "Groothies" – smoothies made from greens and various fruit.
"We just opened our first outreach office in North Philadelphia," Maguire said.
Get Real…Get Raw works with schools to promote their "Fresh 'n Focused Snack Program which consists of "Groothies," fresh fruit and "Fruit whips," frozen fruit blended to the consistency of ice cream.
The program offers kids the opportunity "to experience how their body reacts when it is fed nutritionally."
Shawn House, who owns Lancaster Trading House, Inc., was also offering attendees samples: hemp seed, pretzels, mustard and granola bars.
"We do a soft pretzel, which beats the Philadelphia Pretzel hands down," House said. "It's wheat with hemp seed, hemp flour and hemp oil."
While the majority of attendees were neither vegan nor vegetarian, the festival provided people the chance to have fun and learn about the benefits of a vegan diet.
"I chose to be a vegetarian because after watching documentaries about how they treat animals," Priscilla Lico said. "I just can't imagine eating animals that have all that growth hormone and antibiotics."
Mia Bird said she came with her 5-year-old daughter Caitima Bird to enjoy some delicious grilled vegan food and music.
"It's just so awesome to have something that people would normally not experiment with or try," said Bird, who is on a vegan diet for 40 days. "It's important to keep an open mind."

Processing the Future of Freshness
Sandridge Food Corp. mates high-pressure processing to traditional processes to achieve freshness and meet growing demand for fresh, refrigerated foods.
Sandridge Food Corp. (www.sandridge.com), Medina, Ohio, produces fresh deli salads, soups, entrees, desserts, sauces and dips for grocery and foodservice customers. In doing so, the company holds dear its brand promise to "always provide unrivaled, great tasting fresh food with consistent hand-made quality," and has aggressively worked to cater to consumer demand for freshness, healthfulness and minimal use of preservatives.
The family-owned company, now in its 52nd year, does a lot of things the old-fashioned way. But it's also looking to the future. This is evidenced by the company's $5 million investment of a high-pressure processing line, which began operations in 2010. Put simply, HPP uses cold water at extremely high pressure to kill harmful bacteria and eliminate the need for preservatives. While HPP has proved beneficial across many kinds of food products, the installation at Sandridge may be one of the broadest applications of the technology, owing to the company's diverse product line.
While the new HPP line represents the state of the art in preserving freshness and safety, it's just the tip of the iceberg in terms of the company's overall focus on fresh, prepared refrigerated foods. HPP isn't used on most of the foods the company processes. But the same dedication to freshness and safety is applied to all of its products, more than 750 SKUs in all.
"We're all about fresh — we don't do anything frozen," says Barry Pioske, vice president of plant operations. In keeping with a corporate philosophy that puts a premium on freshness and healthfulness, Sandridge's certified Safe Quality Food (SQF) 2000 Level 2 facility places heavy emphasis on making sure high-quality ingredients stay that way.
For instance, the plant maintains a vegetable preparation and specialty product-packing area that occupies "quite an extensive area in our plant, where we do nothing but process hand-mix and hand-pack fresh vegetables and ingredients to go into our salads and soups," says Pioske. "We have some lines that are more automated, but we've always kept this specialty area, where we produce a very large lineup of products that's truly handmade. There's no automation in those lines, and this gives us a very superior product."
HPP for future growth
Mark Sandridge, company CEO, has called HPP a "game changer" — not just for the company but for the fresh, refrigerated foods category — for its ability to allow processors to ship safe, higher quality products while eliminating preservatives.
Since the mid-1990s, HPP has proven its worth at destroying food borne pathogens; preserving the color, flavor, nutritional content and physical integrity of foods and doing so while eliminating the need for preservatives. It works across a wide range of products, including fruit and vegetable juices; shellfish and finfish; ready-to-eat and whole muscle meat and poultry; salads, dressings and more. Leading processors such as Hormel, Tyson and Kraft have been using it for years.
And now Sandridge is applying it to portions of its own range of soups, protein salads, pasta salads, sauces and fresh-vegetable salads. Already, lessons are being learned, such as the usefulness of processing fresh vegetables, which are very hard to clean, with HPP to extend freshness and shelf life. But while much of the emphasis on HPP across the industry is on extending shelf life, both Pioske and Jim Meadows, vice president of facilities and process improvement, adamantly oppose stressing this fact over freshness and quality.
For example, in addition to eliminating preservatives, HPP allows a processor to reduce excessive salt, vinegar and citric acid that might find its way into a formula, compromising it from the better-tasting products developed by chefs in the R&D kitchen.

A summary of resources, research, news and events in open scholarship for the preceding month
What do researchers really think about open access?
"PEER Behavioural Research: Final Report on authors and users vis-a-vis journals and repositories" is now available. The specific aim of the behavioural research was to understand the extent to which authors and users are aware of Open Access (OA), the different ways of achieving it, and the (de)motivating factors that influence its uptake. A couple of findings: Over the period of Phases 1 and 2 of the behavioural research the increase in the number of researchers who reported placing a version of their journal article(s) into an Open Access Repository was negligible. Researchers who associated Open Access with 'self-archiving' were in the minority. Open Access is more likely to be associated with 'self-archiving' (Green Road) by researchers in the Physical sciences & mathematics and the Social sciences, humanities & arts, than those in the Life sciences and Medical sciences who are more likely to associate Open Access with Open Access Journals (Gold Road). The report is available at http://www.peerproject.eu/reports/
NOTE: Steve Hitcock from Southhampton University warns: "There is a danger in reading too much into the Executive summary of this report, in which the authors may have over-interpreted their own results. Better to read the results in Appendix 3 first hand. This shows that the project was trying to discover what authors did rather than what they think. It also shows the results to be more nuanced than the summary suggests, and therefore more useful too. I would urge readers to go there and draw their own conclusions."
Briefing Paper released by COAR
The Confederation of Open Access Repositories has released a briefing paper titled 'The Case for Interoperability for Open Access Repositories. The paper identifies sa number of selected technical, administrative and organisational challenges. Discussion is invited from the community and stakeholders and can be contributed on the COAR website. http://www.coar-repositories.org/working-groups/repository-interoperability/coar-interoperability-project/a-case-for-interoperability/
Identifiers for People and Organisations - NISO Special Issue
Organisation and People Identifiers – is the theme of the special issue of NISO's Information Standards Quarterly magazine. This issues provides an overview of the major standards and initiatives in this space and is topical in relation to current institutional and personal/author identifiers as highlighted through national projects currently underway in Australia which require these issues to be tackled, i.e. The Australian National Data Service and its program of Seeding the Common projects. The issue is freely available online. http://www.niso.org/publications/isq/2011/v23no3/
What is the future for digital humanities scholarship?
"The Scholarly Communication Institute 9 (SCI 9) convened scholars, librarians, publishers, higher education administrators, and funders to develop collaborative strategies that will advance humanities scholarship in and for the digital age." The report is called "New-Model Scholarly Communication: Road Map for Change" http://www.uvasci.org/current-institute/sci-9-report
Despite what Harnad says, more research is becoming available
Harnad thinks this number is misleading because it includes delayed access, so keep that in mind. The increase has been stable for 10 years, meaning about 50% should be available by 2021. The chart shows the proportion of papers indexed on the (largely biomedical) PubMed repository each year that are now freely accessible: in 2009, it's above 28%. (Some of this literature is not immediately available at the time that it is published, because of journal policies that impose embargo periods on when material can become free). Those numbers are even more impressive than a study last year which found that around 20% of research papers published in 2008 were freely available on the internet. Nature News Blog. (2011, 1 August 2011). How many research articles are freely available? Retrieved 19 September, 2011, from http://blogs.nature.com/news/2011/08/how_many_research_papers_are_f.html
More enthusiastic predictions on spread of Gold OA
The Inevitability of Open Access, David Lewis, College & Research Libraries, (22 Sep 2011) Abstract: Open access (OA) is an alternative business model for the publication of scholarly journals. It makes articles freely available to readers on the Internet and covers the costs associated with publication through means other than subscriptions. This article argues that Gold OA, where all of the articles of a journal are available at the time of publication, is a disruptive innovation as defined by business theorist Clayton Christensen. Using methods described by Christensen we can predict the growth of Gold OA. This analysis suggests that Gold OA could account for 50% of the scholarly journal articles sometime between 2017 and 2021, and 90% of articles as soon as 2020 and more conservatively by 2025.http://crl.acrl.org/content/early/2011/09/21/crl-299.full.pdf+html

Public Availability of Published Research Data in High-Impact Journals
Alawi Alsheikh-Ali et al. PLoS ONE 6 (9), e24357 (2011) doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0024357
Abstract: There is increasing interest to make primary data from published research publicly available. We aimed to assess the current status of making research data available in highly-cited journals across the scientific literature....We reviewed the first 10 original research papers of 2009 published in the 50 original research journals with the highest impact factor. For each journal we documented the policies related to public availability and sharing of data. Of the 50 journals, 44 (88%) had a statement in their instructions to authors related to public availability and sharing of data. However, there was wide variation in journal requirements, ranging from requiring the sharing of all primary data related to the research to just including a statement in the published manuscript that data can be available on request. Of the 500 assessed papers, 149 (30%) were not subject to any data availability policy. Of the remaining 351 papers that were covered by some data availability policy, 208 papers (59%) did not fully adhere to the data availability instructions of the journals they were published in, most commonly (73%) by not publicly depositing microarray data. The other 143 papers that adhered to the data availability instructions did so by publicly depositing only the specific data type as required, making a statement of willingness to share, or actually sharing all the primary data. Overall, only 47 papers (9%) deposited full primary raw data online. None of the 149 papers not subject to data availability policies made their full primary data publicly available....A substantial proportion of original research papers published in high-impact journals are either not subject to any data availability policies, or do not adhere to the data availability instructions in their respective journals. This empiric evaluation highlights opportunities for improvement.
Institutional Repositories, Open Access, and Scholarly Communication: A Study of Conflicting Paradigms
Rowena Cullen and Brenda Chawner, The Journal of Academic Librarianship, (2011) Abstract: The Open Access movement of the past decade, and institutional repositories developed by universities and academic libraries as a part of that movement, have openly challenged the traditional scholarly communication system. This article examines the growth of repositories around the world, and summarizes a growing body of evidence of the response of academics to institutional repositories. It reports the findings of a national survey of academics which highlights the conflict between the principles and rewards of the traditional scholarly communication system, and the benefits of Open Access. The article concludes by suggesting ways in which academic libraries can alleviate the conflict between these two paradigms. http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S009913331100156X
Survey of Library Database Licensing Practices
The 115-page report looks closely at how 70 academic, special and public libraries in the United States, the UK, continental Europe, Canada, and Australia plan their database licensing practices. The report also covers the impact of digital repositories and open access publishing on database licensing. Among the many issues covered: database licensing volume, use of consortiums, consortium development plans, satisfaction levels with the coverage of podcasts, video, listservs, blogs and wikis in full text databases, spending levels on various types of content such as electronic journals, article databases and directories perceptions of price increases for various types of subject matter, legal disputes between publishers and libraries, contract language, impact of mobile co mputing and other issues. Data is broken out by size and type of library. http://www.primaryresearch.com/news.php?id=12
Researchers need more encouragement and support to deposit data in data centres: Study
A new study by JISC and the Research Information Network has found that data centres have been instrumental in developing a culture of data sharing among researchers. The study found that usage of data centres is high: most support thousands of researchers and millions of downloads each year. Data from every centre supports a variety of research activities, ranging from original research analysis, through combination and integration with other data, to reference purposes.

Bulletin of the American Society for Information Science and Technology 37, no. 6 (2011): "Data Management as Bibliography" Editor's summary includes: "Sharing primary data enables a greater return on the original investment, expanded discovery and fertilization of ideas across disciplines. The major impediment is lack of an infrastructure to archive non-textual data sets, in addition to hurdles including locating data, deterioration, format standardization, permission for use and suitability." http://www.asis.org/Bulletin/Aug-11/Bulletin_AugSep11_Final.pdf
A sustainable future for open textbooks? The Flat World Knowledge story
First Monday, Volume 15, Number 8 - 2 August 2010 Abstract: Many college students and their families are concerned about the high costs of textbooks. Ebooks have been proposed as one potential solution, open-source textbooks have also been explored. A company called Flat World Knowledge produces and gives away open-source textbooks in a way they believe to be financially sustainable. This article reports an initial study of the financial sustainability of the Flat World Knowledge open-source textbook model. http://firstmonday.org/htbin/cgiwrap/bin/ojs/index.php/fm/article/view/2800/2578
Librarians unite! Article about how librarians are leading the revolt in school publishing
After decades of healthy profits, the scholarly publishing industry now finds itself in the throes of a revolt led by the most unlikely campus revolutionaries: the librarians. Universities from Britain to California are refusing to renew their expensive subscriptions, turning instead to "open access" publishing, an arrangement whereby material is made available free on the Internet with few or no restrictions except for the obligation to cite it. "Internet Ruffles Pricey Scholarly Journals" NY TImes, By D.D. GUTTENPLAN,18 Sept 2011. http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/19/world/europe/19iht-educLede19.html
Academic publishers make Murdoch look like a socialist - George Monbiot
Who are the most ruthless capitalists in the western world? Whose monopolistic practices make Walmart look like a corner shop and Rupert Murdoch a socialist? You won't guess the answer in a month of Sundays. While there are plenty of candidates, my vote goes not to the banks, the oil companies or the health insurers, but – wait for it – to academic publishers. Theirs might sound like a fusty and insignificant sector. It is anything but. Of all corporate scams, the racket they run is most urgently in need of referral to the competition authorities. Appeared in the Guardian 29 August 2011. http://t.co/ttuQD3s

An international team of experts from institutions participating in SCOAP3 has prepared a detailed description of the peer-review and open access services that the consortium intends to purchase through high-quality peer-reviewed journals, the conditions for the provision of these services and the implications on existing licensing agreements. CERN has now issued a Market Survey for the benefit of SCOAP3. It is publicly available at:http://cdsweb.cern.ch/record/1384149
How much is Wiley making anyway?
Wiley has released its financial report for the first quarter of the 2012 financial year. http://eu.wiley.com/WileyCDA/PressRelease/pressReleaseId-100853.html
It states that first quarter revenue for STM publishing increased by 3%, and its contribution to profit increased by 6% (after adjustment for currency fluctuations). It also reports that 73% of its journal portfolio has an Impact Factor.
An interesting analysis of this report (http://www.library.yale.edu/~llicense/ListArchives/1109/msg00069.html) from Sami Kassab, an analyst at BNP Paribas, was published on the Liblicense ListServ. The analysis compares Wiley to Informa and Elsevier, and deduces that the profitability of Wiley is slightly less, with a margin of c.28-30% compared to c.35% for the other two. The difference is explained by the high level of society partnership publishing undertaken at Wiley.
Big European group pushing open access
The four organisations that make up Knowledge Exchange, all outputs from publicly funded research, including publications and research data, should be openly available on the internet as long as matters of privacy and confidentiality do not interfere. The European partners of Knowledge Exchange are DEFF from Denmark, DFG from Germany, JISC from the UK and SURFfoundation from the Netherlands. http://www.knowledge-exchange.info/Default.aspx?ID=62&M=News&PID=2379&NewsID=126
Universities join together to form open access coalition
Kansas and 21 other universities and colleges announced that they're joining forces to form the Coalition of Open Access Policy Institutions, or Coapi. The new group will "collaborate and share implementation strategies, and advocate on a national level," it said in a statement. From The Chronicle of Higher Education 2 August 2011
Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (UK) mandates OA
"EPSRC has introduced a new policy on access to research outputs....The policy requires that all published EPSRC-funded research articles submitted for publication from 1 September 2011 must be made available on an Open Access basis. Importantly, the policy leaves researchers free to publish in the journal most suited to the subject of their research. It is expected that publications will be made Open Access through one of two main routes: 1? Gold Open Access (pay-to-publish) – peer-reviewed papers published in fully Open Access journals which do not charge subscription fees, or in 'hybrid' subscription journals which enable free access to 'pre-paid' articles.
Subject to certain criteria the publishing fees may be met from direct or indirect costs on EPSRC Research Grants. Green Open Access – research is published in traditional subscription journals and authors self-archive their papers (as accepted for publication) in a digital online repository. Publications will preferably be openly accessible from the date of publication. However, the current prevalence of embargo periods means this may not be a realistic option in some areas of engineering and physical sciences research. EPSRC therefore encourages authors to publish within the shortest embargo period attainable commensurate with ensuring their work achieves maximum impact.." http://www.epsrc.ac.uk/newsevents/pubs/mags/connect/2011/83/Pages/newepsrcpolicyonaccesstoresearchoutputs.aspx

U.S. farmers planted a record-breaking soybean crop this spring, according to USDA's June 30 Planted Acreage report.
According to the estimate, soybean acres are up 2 percent from last year, while corn acres are up 1 percent. Cotton acres are down 4 percent.
Soybean planted area for 2009 is estimated at a record high 77.5 million acres, up 2 percent from last year. Area for harvest, at 76.5 million acres, is up 3 percent from 2008, and will be the largest harvested area on record, if realized.
Compared with last year, planted acreage increased by 200,000 acres or more in Kansas, Mississippi, Missouri, North Dakota, and South Dakota.
The largest decrease is in Nebraska, down 400,000 acres from 2008, as many farmers switched to corn this year. Record high planted acreage is estimated in Kansas, New York, North Dakota, and Pennsylvania.
Corn planted area is estimated at 87 million acres, up 1 percent from last year but 7 percent below 2007. This is the second largest planted acreage since 1946, behind 2007.
Planting proceeded behind the normal pace, similar to last year, as frequent spring precipitation and cold temperatures slowed early season fieldwork and planting activities in the central and eastern Corn Belt, Ohio Valley, and northern Great Plains.
On May 10, corn planting was 48 percent complete, down 23 points from the five-year average. In late May, however, drier conditions allowed farmers to make rapid progress. Farmers reported that 97 percent of the intended corn acreage had been planted at the time of the acreage survey interview compared with the 10-year average of 98 percent.
Cotton plantings for 2009 are estimated at 9.05 million acres, 4 percent below last year. Upland planted area is estimated at 8.91 million acres, down 4 percent from 2008. All and upland cotton acres are the lowest since 1983.
In Mississippi and Louisiana, producers planted the lowest upland acreages on record at 270,000 and 240,000 acres respectively.
The largest percentage decline is in California, where upland producers planted 65,000 acres, 46 percent less than last year. Increased upland planted acres are expected in Arizona, Georgia, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. American-Pima cotton growers planted 149,400 acres, down 14 percent from 2008.
All wheat planted area is estimated at 59.8 million acres, down 5 percent from 2008. The 2009 winter wheat planted area, at 43.4 million acres, is 6 percent below last year but up 1 percent from the previous estimate. Of this total, about 31.4 million acres are hard red winter, 8.4 million acres are soft red winter, and 3.6 million acres are white winter. Area planted to other spring wheat for 2009 is estimated at 13.8 million acres, down 3 percent from 2008. Of this total, about 13.1 million acres are hard red spring wheat. Durum planted area for 2009 is estimated at 2.56 million acres, down 6 percent from the previous year.

Some areas in Alabama — including the east-central portion of the state —experienced a record-breaking string of 95 to 100-plus-degree days this summer. This, coupled with drought, has turned a promising spring into a dismal harvest for many producers.
Dry, hot weather definitely will have an impact on this year's peanut crop, as seen during a mid-August tour through the east-central portion of the state.
"Peanuts are an indeterminate crop, and they'll grow vines until they are about 100 days old. But the majority of peanuts in east-central Alabama were planted on May 10, and they are small," said Auburn University Extension peanut agronomist Kris Balkcom, speaking on the East Alabama Crops Tour on Aug. 13.
Time is running out for some peanut growers, he says. "I pulled up some peanuts yesterday in southwest Alabama, and the nuts had turned loose inside the pod. More than likely, those peanuts are done. Even though they're indeterminate, and can fruit at any time, there's a certain point that marks an end to the fruiting size. Pegs are being burned off when they hit dirt because the soil temperature is too hot and environmental conditions are not favorable for them to set," he says.
One good thing about the dry weather this summer is that it has slowed down the development of leafspot disease in peanuts, says Austin Hagan, Auburn University Extension plant pathologist. "If we have fairly constant rainfall, leafspot is maintained at a high level. We saw that last year when it rained during most of the summer in most production areas. This year, we've seen a good deal less," he says.
In dry conditions like those this year, some growers have stretched their leafspot spray intervals to two to three weeks. "Of course if it starts raining, you need to be in front of it. Once we get into early to mid-September, there's not a lot we can do with the materials that are available. Once the leaves start to come off, they will continue until harvest," says Hagan.
White mold development
White mold development also drops off considerably as peanuts enter the month of September, he adds. Later planted peanuts have a lower risk of the disease, he says.
Peanut producers in Alabama haven't seen much tomato spotted wilt virus this year, says Hagan. "This is a good thing, but it doesn't mean the virus is gone. All we have to do is have a mild winter or two, have good survival with the thrips that vector the virus, and it'll be back next year. But at least we got a rest from it this year," he says.
Even in areas of Alabama that have received timely rainfall, the extreme temperatures of this summer are taking a toll on the state's cotton crop, says Dale Monks, Auburn University Extension cotton agronomist.
"Even in our irrigated cotton, you can look at the tops of the plant and see the damage being done by high temperatures. Look in the middle of the plant, and you'll find a lot of little squares and bloom tags that never made it to being a boll, and that's what the heat has done. You can replace rain some with irrigation, but when temperatures reach 95 to 100 degrees, you'll start shedding fast," says Monks.
At this time of year, rainfall may help to fill out the bolls, but it also may be a hindrance as defoliation begins, he says.
Potash deficiencies are showing up in some of the state's cotton crop, says Monks. "The early season cotton shows it first because it's drawing more out of the soil. If there's a deficiency, it shows up on early varieties first and then follows into the full-season varieties," he says.
Soybean crop
Alabama's soybean crop hasn't escaped the ravages of a hot, dry production season, says Dennis Delaney, Auburn University Extension soybean agronomist. "It has been a dry year, and we've had a lot of reports of soybeans shedding pods and blooms. This is a function of high temperatures and especially high nighttime temperatures. We're not getting the rainfall and soil moisture to cool the leaves, and soybeans will shed. If we get rain later on, some of this crop might come back. But in a lot of places, they're setting half a crop. We don't know if they'll bloom again and set a crop later on," he says.
The dry weather has led to fewer disease problems than last year, says Delaney. Asian soybean rust hasn't been as severe in recent years as was originally feared, he says.
As of mid-August, it had been confirmed in three counties in south Alabama — Baldwin, Mobile and Escambia. "Soybean rust doesn't like high temperatures or eight full hours of sun. It can infect the plant, but it doesn't always release new spores. It keeps growing within that leaf until we finally do get some cloudy, wet days. Then it explodes and can spread quickly, usually in mid-August and early September. So late beans would be the most at-risk this year," he says.
Soybeans that have received rainfall or irrigation and have yield potential should be protected. "For these soybeans, we still recommend putting out a strobilurin fungicide at about the R3, R4 stage. These are preventative fungicides intended to be applied before you get disease and rainfall," says Delaney.

Within the program's eight sessions, participants will consider the history of the Holocaust and the lessons from that event that are relevant to today.The sessions are designed to be taught in an hour-long classroom situation and can be extended to accommodate a longer time frame. Sessions were written for adult classes and for youth (junior and senior high) classes. The curriculum is designed to be used in large or small group settings. The lesson plans have clear directions for group activities in which students learn by sharing information with each other. All materials needed for teaching the sessions are provided in the curriculum box. All pages can be reproduced for use in the classroom.Sessions can be used in religious education classes, retreats or with short-term special study programs.To reserve a "History, Humanity, Responsibility: You Can Make A Difference" curriculum box, call 713-942-8000, ext. 110.To pick up a box from the Museum, the requesting church leader or Sunday school teacher must present a letter, written on church letterhead and signed by a member of the church staff, stating that this resource is being implemented for the church and that the church will assume liability if the materials are not returned. There is a $25 deposit that must be given at the time the box is picked up. The deposit will be returned to the person once the box is returned to the Museum with all materials included. The deposit may be paid by providing a check payable to Holocaust Museum Houston or a credit card that is valid for the entire period in which the box is being checked out. If a box is returned without certain materials, the church or person picking them up may be charged more than the $25 deposit, but no more than $200.

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - Hundreds of sex offenders across South Carolina are again subject to some restrictions this Halloween.
Agency spokesman Pete O'Boyle says about 1,200 offenders currently being monitored by the state Department of Probation, Parole and Pardon Services are under a curfew from 5:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Thursday.
During that time, offenders cannot host parties, attend carnivals, give out candy or even have their outdoor lights on. Agents will call and drop by some offenders' homes to check in. In some areas, sex offenders are required to report to designated locations.
This is the seventh year paroled South Carolina sex offenders have had a Halloween curfew. Authorities say it's safe to let kids go door-to-door to trick-or-treat as long as they're supervised.

Myoclonic-Astatic Epilepsy (MAE), or Doose Syndrome, is an epilepsy syndrome of early childhood that is often resistant to medication. For this reason, it can be difficult to treat. MAE is an idiopathic generalized epilepsy, meaning that there is no known cause for the seizures (idiopathic) and the seizures originate from all over the brain (generalized) as opposed to coming from one focal area. Onset of MAE occurs commonly in the first five yeas of life, with the mean age being three. Statistics show that it usually affects children who have previously developed normally, and boys are twice as likely as girls to develop MAE. In some cases, other family members (immediate or extended) may also have seizures.
As researchers learn more about MAE, new treatment options become available and the outcomes continue to improve for our children. Parents new to MAE can be encouraged knowing that many families and their doctors have found successful ways to treat this challenging disorder. You can read about families' personal experiences, learn about treatment options, connect with other parents, and gain insight into successful management of MAE on this website, or contact us directly.
