A Bad Economy or Is the Church Losing America's Heart?
Americans are giving more to charity but the church is increasingly getting less of the goodwill from their pockets. How much less? At least $1 billion worth of it, says the Atlas of Giving, and that's only what's predicted for this year alone.
Despite positive growth in overall charitable donations from Americans in the last three years, religious organizations can expect more than $1 billion less in giving this year than they collected in 2012, according to a report released this month by the Atlas of Giving.
Recognized as the most precise measure of charitable giving in the United States and accounting for the entire giving economy, the Atlas of Giving notes in its 2012 report that while religion remains the largest giving sector in America, its share of the pie will decline from 36 percent to 35 percent this year despite overall increases in charitable giving.
Americans gave $345.93 billion in charitable donations in 2011. In 2012, overall charitable donations increased by 6.7 percent to just over $369 billion. This year, charitable giving, largely fueled by individuals, is expected to increase 1.6 percent to $375.13 billion, according to the report.
Giving to religious organizations, however, showed little growth in 2012, and it is the only one out of eight giving sectors tracked in the report that forecasts a decline for 2013. The other giving sectors – education, human/disaster services, health, arts, international, nature/environment and society benefit – are all expected to post increases. Donations to the nature/environment and human/disaster services sectors are projected to see the greatest increase in charitable giving in 2013, continuing a trend from 2012.
Tom Hampson, director of constituent engagement at Church World Service, said although his organization projected meeting its fundraising goal for 2013, they are currently weathering a decline in church giving. "We are seeing a decline in congregation giving for us," he said in a telephone interview with The Christian Post on Monday. "While the recession seems to be receding, the experience of lots of non-profits is still a daunting environment."
While he was unsure about the cause of the decline in giving to the religious sector and cited several factors that could have resulted in the decline, he said, "if people are feeling insecure about their employment, certainly they'll be less likely to give."
Maj. Ron Busroe of The Salvation Army, however, had a more nuanced response to the data. In an interview with CP, Busroe said in the last five years The Salvation Army has enjoyed an increase in giving every year. Last year, however, they posted the smallest increase of the period. And while he acknowledged that significant election spending played a role in the crimped giving, he said the drop in giving was an indication of a more telling issue in the church.
"We are observing more and more people identifying themselves as 'no religion' so consequently, if they have no religion then they are not going to give to the church, the synagogue or the temple. That group of people is going to start having some impact on charitable giving," said Busroe.
The younger generation, he said, are now more interested in giving to causes rather than the church as an institution and "organizations that can clearly articulate what that dollar will do, those are the kinds of things that will draw giving."
He noted that people gave to The Salvation Army not simply because it is a faith-based organization but because it provides services that act as a social safety net for many individuals. "It's not easy for the church to do but we all have to be able to say this is the value we bring to society and communicate that to our constituents. The younger people are not going to give just because our parents and grand-parents did," he said.

Verlander throws; Tigers comfortable with progress
LAKELAND, Fla. -- Tigers pitching coach Jeff Jones expected Justin Verlander would want extra pitches when he threw his bullpen session Saturday. Really, Jones seemed surprised that Verlander threw only one pitch more than his limit.
Jones knows Verlander as well as anybody in the organization, having worked with him since 2007. And he insists he isn't worried about Verlander pushing himself too hard, too fast in his recovery from core muscle surgery.
"He always pushes himself really hard, but I think he understands what he needs to get ready," Jones said Sunday. "Honestly, when we found out what happened [with the injury in December], we talked on the phone, and I wasn't too concerned with him pushing himself."
It might have been a concern a few years ago. It definitely would have been a concern in Verlander's younger days when he was still trying to prove himself. But as Jones put it, Verlander's no longer trying to make the team.
Jones said they'll take a wait-and-see approach on Verlander's side sessions for the next week to 10 days, holding off on a schedule until he reports no discomfort. Under normal circumstances, Verlander would be throwing every other day for the next couple of turns, then every third day leading into the start of the Spring Training schedule.
As long as Verlander can make five starts this spring, they'll feel comfortable with his readiness going into the season.
Verlander was cleared to take part in fielding drills Sunday for the first time this spring. That included the oft-mentioned ragball drill, taking hard-hit ground balls hit back at him from Omar Vizquel.
"It was good to be able to do that," Verlander said.

I have to confess, I am an idealist. As such, I've had this dream for years that one day my business will be so finely tuned that each day's activities are derived from my goals and processes. In essence, long-term goals break down to short-term goals which break down to daily activities, and so on. In reality, it takes a tremendous amount of discipline to create this "finely tuned" machine.
At this time, I'd like to share a project that I've recently started, which is a step in the right direction. Although it's not unique, it is important. I call it the activity matrix. Using the three systems of an advisory business as broad categories, the top row of the matrix are the months of the year (Jan. to Dec.) and the first column lists the business systems and the tasks that fall under each system. You would simply place an "X" in the cell of the month that each task needs to be completed.
Each task should move you closer to your goals, and as you inch closer, you may need to refine your matrix. You may also find that some tasks are too ambitious while others need to be accelerated. To get started, try listing any and every possible task you or your staff will ever do. Next, categorize each task according to the business system it falls under. Then determine who will perform each task. Finally, place each task in your CRM software with the appropriate reminders. Here's an example. Let's say marketing, "Task #1," is a monthly lunch meeting with a COI (center of influence). You might delegate the scheduling to an assistant who would contact those names on the list you provide.
There may be some tasks that occur more frequently than monthly. For example, you might decide to reach out to five prospective clients each week. In this case, the matrix might have a task under marketing that says, "Contact prospective clients." Then, you would enter this task in your CRM software to occur multiple times each week.
I hope you have found something of value for your business. Thanks for reading and have a great week!

Root Canals in one visit - with a special dental procedure called a root canal therapy you may save your tooth. Inside each tooth is the pulp which provides nutrients and nerves to the tooth, it runs like a thread down through the root. When the pulp is diseased or injured, the pulp tissue dies. If you don't remove it, your tooth gets infected and you could lose it. After the dentist removes the pulp, the root canal is cleaned and sealed off to protect it. Then our dentist places a crown over the tooth to help make it stronger. root canals...
Tooth Fillings - When decay has eaten away at the tooth a hole remains. The dentist needs to fill this hole produced by the decay, a filling is needed to be placed. Today there are basically two types of fillings, silver fillings and white fillings. more on fillings..
Teeth Cleanings & Whitening - Did you know that your teeth can now be cleaned with ultrasonic vibrations, using ultrasonic scalers? These instruments actually vibrate plaque and calculus off your teeth, even in areas below your gums which are beyond the reach of ordinary scalers. teeth cleaning...

We often use dental crowns to restore beauty and strength to a tooth that has been weakened by decay, injury, or endodontic [root canal] therapy. Dental crowns are caps that fit over the entire tooth. The targeted tooth is prepared by removing damaged areas and shaping it to accommodate the dental crown.
Dental bridges, like dental implants and partial dentures, are used to replace missing teeth. There are several types of fixed dental bridges (cannot be removed), including conventional fixed bridges, cantilever bridges and resin-bonded bridges.
Oral Surgery Oral Surgery involves the diagnosis and treatment of oral and facial conditions. When you need oral surgery it makes sense to visit a dentist that has additional training in all areas of surgery and anesthesia. more on oral surgery procedures...

Members of the House said on Tuesday that they will modify the language of the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act (CISPA) in a nod to the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), which has expressed strong opposition to the bill's language thus far.
CISPA proposes a new system where the federal government has the authority to share information about Internet-based threats to corporations, and vice versa. However, as the language is currently written, information is defined so broadly so that "any other provision of law" cannot supersede it.
As Ars concluded last week: "CISPA is a solution in search of a problem. And it threatens to undermine important privacy protections."
According to The Hill, the two Congressmen behind CISPA are set to offer amendments on the floor of the House this week to address concerns of the privacy groups including the ACLU, the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), and the Center for Democracy and Technology (CDT).
Specifically, the proposed amendments will add limits as to how the government can use what it collects, and under what conditions.
"The changes would also narrow the definition of 'cyber threat information' and would bar the federal government from retaining or using information beyond the explicit purposes of the bill," reported The Hill on Tuesday evening. "Another amendment would restrict the scope of the liability protections for companies that turn over data to the government."
But the ACLU is still not satisfied with these changes.
"The companies still aren't required to even make an effort to take out sensitive and personal information before sharing cybersecurity data with the government," the ACLU's Richardson told The Hill. "The amendments also still allow this information to be sent directly to the National Security Agency and other military offices instead of keeping civilians in control of Americans' Internet info. The use limitations, while amended, still allow the government to use what it collects for undefined 'national security' purposes."
In a statement published on its website on Tuesday, the CDT said that "good progress has been made," and that the organization would "not oppose the process moving forward in the House."
"However, the bill falls short because of the remaining concerns—the flow of Internet data directly to the NSA and the use of information for purposes unrelated to cybersecurity," the group concluded.
UPDATE: In an e-mail sent to Ars on Wednesday morning, Rebecca Jeschke, the EFF's spokesperson, said the group has looked at the Rogers amendment package, dismissing it as "a bandaid that does little to prevent widespread monitoring of sensitive communications and the unredacted transfer of sensitive personal information to the government. We are still looking at the other amendments."

Local's Corner excels with a limited, tiny kitchen
Given the space that chef Jake Des Voignes is cooking in at Local's Corner, Des Voignes' and Yaron Milgrom's follow-up to their nearby Local Mission Eatery, you might conclude the menu couldn't be that interesting.
The restaurant's kitchen is equipped only with a small self-vented convection oven, two induction burners and a circulator. The lack of an exhaust hood means no high-powered burners or ovens to prepare the food.
With the minimal equipment, the open kitchen ends up looking like a service counter that stretches across the back side of the 30-seat Victorian-inspired dining room.
Light floods into the tiny corner storefront through large plate-glass windows on two sides, highlighting an ornate, scarred sideboard that holds bottles of wine and glasses. A period-inspired wallpaper, dark brown painted tin ceiling, and bentwood chairs complete the simple, charming look. Noise is kept manageable by thick pads of foam underneath the white marble tables.
The kitchen is staffed by three chefs in white shirts and blue-and-white striped aprons. It's an interesting juxtaposition - the crisp-looking chefs contrast with the front-of-the-house staff members, who are dressed as if they were pulled from the neighborhood and set to work in their street clothes.
Fortunately, they know how to service a table, although occasionally they stand at the counter and talk to each other rather than scanning the dining room to see what customers need. Sometimes they are efficient; at other times they are lax at changing plates and bringing utensils to serve the shared dishes. And this is one place where you want clean plates between courses because the flavors are so intricately woven together.
Original and unique
Space limitations forced Des Voignes into a seafood-based menu with oysters ($2.50-$3.50 each) and raw or lightly cooked fish. This might sound like a handicap, but it isn't. I've found that some of the most creative food comes out of tiny, less-than-ideal kitchens, and that's certainly the case here.
Des Voignes had to think outside normal parameters, and what he's created is a menu that's unlike anything else in the Bay Area. Because it depends on the daily catch and harvest, it changes frequently.
If the dishes aren't raw, they are baked in a convection oven (including the thick slices of seeded bread - $3 and worth it), sauteed over an induction burner or warmed in a circulator bath.
The circulator bath is the cooking method for the king salmon ($24), and it results in an almost spreadable texture. On the night I had it, the salmon was served in a shallow bowl and propped up on squash cooked three ways - caramelized, whirled into an airy puree and made into crisp chips - flavored with vadouvan spices, accompanied by whole-grain mustard and delicate leaves of mustard greens. It was a beautifully conceived and executed dish. The current menu lists peas, fava beans and wild mushrooms as the accompaniments.
Another larger plate consists of two rectangular cast-iron containers, one filled with roasted potatoes with an arugula pesto, the other with rock cod spread with gribiche ($18).
Dish after dish is pristine and imaginatively crafted, mixing ingredients that you aren't sure will work. That includes uni ($14) surrounded by English peas, mint and preserved lemon. It's not only visually breathtaking, with the orange lobes of sea urchin nestled among the bright green orbs, but the flavor is flawless. The mint, a classic with peas, and the preserved lemon, ideal with seafood, tie the main elements together in an unlikely but thoroughly compatible marriage.
Imaginative fare
I experienced a similar wow moment with the oyster soup ($10), a creamy blend with diced red potatoes, two raw miyagi oysters that play off the seafaring flavors in the broth, onions and the surprise of baby turnips. I've not had turnips and oysters paired, but it's a lovely juxtaposition of land and sea.
I'm usually not one for including fruit in savory courses, but I can't quibble with Des Voignes' results. His Dungeness crab ($13) is a magnificent presentation that could be on the cover of a California cuisine cookbook.
On my visit, the snowy flakes of seafood were interspersed with snap peas, with some of the pods opened to reveal the peas inside, contrasting with orange chunks of lightly pickled apricots that bolstered the delicate flavor of the crab. (Cara Cara oranges and spring onion might replace the apricots.)
The cured halibut ($9) features another dramatic juxtaposition, with grapefruit, thin slices of radishes and wispy fronds of dill. Salmon crudo ($12) - both little piles of tartare and slices of the striated belly that look like an orange-and-white zebra print - are paired with cherries or baby beets. Why it works, I don't know, but it does.
More nice surprises
One night, smoothly textured rabbit rillettes (not currently on the menu) featured a precise dice of plums tumbling over the unmolded timbale. While the flavors were compatible, I'm not sure how it was designed to be eaten because it was served without bread, and it needed something to add contrast.
Fortunately, that wasn't the case with the cured anchovies ($9), served with warm bread, a pat of butter, a little pile of citrus-flavored salt and citrus-marinated anchovies. The crunch of the seeds in the bread, the creaminess of the butter and the acidic punch of the citrus-marinated fish, along with the drizzle of chive oil on the plate, make for a magnificent combination. It's a preparation that should win over even those who aren't wild about this fish.
To bolster flavors, Des Voignes often presents the same ingredients in various ways, as in the cucumber salad ($9). He features three varieties, cuts them differently and serves them with a smear of burnt lemon aioli, smoked raisin puree that recalls barbecue sauce, and plump pickled golden raisins.
No dessert is offered, but the check arrives with a square of fresh fruit gelee. That provides just enough sweetness to cap the meal - as does the tab, which is reasonable given the ingredients' quality and preparation.
Splendid brunch, too
The kitchen's creativity is also evident at brunch, where a fixed-price two-course menu is offered for $18 and includes thick slices of toasted seed bread with butter and house-made preserves. Diners can choose between granola with berries, an excellent chilled carrot soup or a cheese plate. That's followed by either Belgian waffles; an open-faced brioche with arugula pesto, egg and gouda cheese; or chicken hash with a poached egg, onion puree, broccoli and mushrooms.
On every dish, Des Voignes and his team surprise the palate and surpass what's produced at his other restaurant, Local Mission Eatery. It proves my point that challenging conditions often force a chef to be more creative. In this case, that's culminated in one of the most exciting, interesting menus in the Bay Area.

The wine list
Few wine lists echo the sentiments of the chef more than the 33 selections on the back of the menu at Local's Corner.
All the wines are from California, but many are unusual - the 2011 Ryme "Hers" Vermentino ($40) from Carneros, for example, or the 2011 Giornata Campo ($9/$32) from the Central Coast, a blend of Fruliano, Chardonnay and Moscato Bianco.
I particularly like the fact that the list features nine rosés, which are ideal for much of the raw seafood and lightly cooked dishes. The selections, such the 2011 Unti Rose ($11/$39), 2009 Donkey & Goat Grenach Gris ($35) and 2010 Dashe Cellars Vin Gris ($7/$24), are as interesting as the reds and whites.
The staff seems well versed in the wines and is able to give guidance, but you can also experiment with the 14 offered by the glass.
Beers are also locally produced. The four on the list are from Anchor Brewing, Magnolia, Pacific Brew Labs and Almanac, all located in San Francisco.

Beatrice Mtetwa, a tenacious lawyer who has won accolades for stubbornly defending journalists and others persecuted by Robert Mugabe's regime in Zimbabwe, regained her freedom today after a hellish week that began on March 17 when she was arrested and charged with the criminal offense of "defeating or obstructing the course of justice."
Police officers claimed she shouted at them while they were conducting a search of the homes of four officials from the prime minister's office. Mtetwa said she was merely demanding the officers produce a warrant. A high court judge ordered her immediate release that day, but police stalled, keeping her in custody by transferring Mtetwa from one Harare police station to another to prevent her lawyers from being able to present the court order. It was disturbing to see one of Zimbabwe's most pre-eminent lawyers in the back of a police pick-up or in a green prison uniform, and the outrage manifested in local, regional, and international solidarity, including demonstrations, protest letters and use of the hash tag #BeatriceMtetwa. In a public letter, CPJ appealed to the justice minister to ensure that the state comply with the judge's order and set her free.
"As a result of you watching, making tweets, there has been a more careful handling of her case, we thank you for that," Tawanda Zhuwarara, one of her lawyers, told CPJ last week.
This morning Mtetwa, who once endured a brutal beating at the hands of police, was as defiant as ever. "I will not be cowed, I was doing my job," she said to reporters. No wonder high court Judge Joseph Musakwa, who released her on a $500 bail, said of her: "If she was a commando she would take no prisoners."
Mtetwa, who is the subject of a new documentary, "Beatrice Mtetwa and the Rule of Law," will have to go back to a magistrate court to fight the charges on April 3, Harrison Nkomo, another of her lawyers, told CPJ. But for now, she is free, with a new nickname: "commando."

Last year's Tiger Woods wasn't just a great playing game of golf, it was a pretty awesome showcase for Nintendo's Wii MotionPlus peripheral. The company was clearly so proud about what it accomplished, it even beat Nintendo to the punch as the first game on the market to support the motion device. Armed with all that Wii MotionPlus knowhow, the Wii Tiger Woods team set out to improve an already fantastic golfing experience with the yearly follow-up. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 might not be a massive step up from the previous incarnation, the game is a significant improvement and there's a ton to enjoy even if you've plowed through last year's 2010 edition.
Look, even though Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 doesn't absolutely require you to have a Wii MotionPlus peripheral, at this point in the game you owe it to yourself to get one: for this year's version, EA Sports' Tiger Woods team outdid last year's incredibly impressive golfing experience with a swing mechanic that mirrors golfing as accurately as you can get on a videogame controller. While armchair golfers might swear by the two/three click system or the analog flick control, virtual golf feels much more real when you're swinging a stick around. EA Sports has been working to get this mechanic right for four iterations now, but I think for 2011, its fifth game using the Wii remote, the team nailed it with something that's both fun to experience and accurate as hell.
Though the Nintendo version isn't a slouch in visuals, you're obviously going to get a better looking experience on the HD consoles – those systems have the strength to make all the PGA courses look far more beautiful than the Wii edition. But it's not the visuals that make Tiger Woods work here: you're not going to get a more immersive game of golf than on Wii. The Wii remote has been a tricky beast for some developers to handle, but the Tiger Woods Wii team clearly shows a true understanding and manage to make the Wii remote work as close to an actual set of golf clubs as you can get with this generation of controllers.
There are a variety of different control schemes: a pick-up-and-play "All Play" option for the beginner and the "Normal" and "Advanced" options that are pretty much what the team created for Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 on Wii. Then there are the new tweaks: Advanced Plus and Tour Pro, two Motion Plus-enhanced controls that take into account all the subtle twists and turns in the backswing and the drive that apply the draw or fade. If you can get a grasp of what the game's looking for and how it affects the ball's flight in these two modes, you'll find it an incredibly accurate simulation of golfing even without the feedback of the club head connecting with a ball.
To enhance the "you are there" feel, the team added a new first-person "True View" mode. Here, everything you're doing is through the eyes of your golfer, right down to the drive of the ball. When you're ready to swing, you glance down at the ball, either on the ground or the tee, and you can move the club with insane accuracy – this mode really shows off just how much the Wii MotionPlus helps with 1:1 motion.
It's a great viewing option that comes at a cost: if you play this way, you see the whole game from your eyes. Which means, once the ball sails off into the distance, the camera doesn't zoom in or cut away to a different view. While accurate and true to the sport, this definitely hurts a major Tiger Woods design: the control of the ball's spin while in-flight. I've never been a fan of the "put forward/back/side spin after the shot" design due to its lack of realism, but it's been a part of Tiger Woods for nearly a half decade so it's a staple. But without the ability to see where your ball is going – the ball will disappear behind hills and trees or simply get lost in a mess of low resolution pixels – it's difficult to know which direction you should apply the ball's spin, and how much.
You can choose to switch back to the standard camera system at any time through the option menu, but it would have been so helpful had the developers added a hybrid "True View with Classic Camera" option to cover all its bases. Maybe next year?
It's not just in the controls where the Wii version excels. Remember last year's unbelievably fun Disc Golf mode? It's back, and while it didn't get (nor did it need) any tweaks in its control, it is now a mode you can play online along with normal golf. Disc Golf is really just the developers showing off its ability to know and understand Wii MotionPlus – again, you can play this mode without the peripheral, but it's far more natural (and fun) with it. College students should flock to this game for those rainy days when they can't head to their officially sanctioned disc golf course. I'm still up in the air in deciding which of the two — EA's disc golf or Wii Sports Resort's Frisbee Golf – plays better, but considering how many courses you can play, and the fact you can play online, well, you're clearly going to have a good time here.
The developers throw in the same batch of "party game" options that enhance the golfing experience that ensures this isn't just a dry golf simulation: lots of target shooting, lots of fast-paced modes. And this year, we get Mini Golf! Yep, 36 holes of traditional putt-putt, and, while this mode isn't much better than some of the ten dollar options you can get on WiiWare, it's not a throwaway feature and it's certainly fun if you can get a couple people to play with you. But sorry, no online Mini Golf – this mode's just for the local players.
Of course, the focus here is true 18-hole golf, and this game does it all: Stroke, Skins, Best Ball…all the main options are here for single and multiplayer, both offline and on. The big bulletpoint for the 2011 series is the addition of the Ryder Cup, a USA vs. Europe team-focused competition, and you can incorporate your Career Mode custom profile characters in this tournament as well as select from an army of dozens of professional golfers. There's an insane amount of depth in this golf game, but – other than the inclusion of Ryder Cup – last year was pretty insane in the depth department, too.
The online uses EA's servers so, thankfully no Friend Codes are needed. Once you're all signed up for access you can set up a lobby for either standard or disc golf with specific settings, or simply look for a random match-up. Strangely, the random matches are only set up between players who selected this option — it won't pair you up with anyone who's created a specific game lobby. Oh, and beyond a basic keyword chat system, you really won't be able to talk with your opponent — no WiiSpeak support in Tiger Woods.
Closing Comments
Golf nuts of any level – from armchair to aspiring pros – will love what Wii team has done for Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2011. There's a lot of recycling from previous games but this year's edition does improve the experience with things like higher sensitivity controls, new camera perspectives, the Ryder Cup tournament, miniature golf, and – most importantly – online disc golf. While not a tremendous night and day difference from Tiger Woods 2010, there's still enough here to warrant an upgrade for those who leapt on the game last year. And if you haven't yet hit the links on Wii yet, this is a fantastic place to start.

Identify and validate your target of interest using siRNA collections with readouts to interrogate functional pathways, proliferation, gene expression analysis, and protein modifications.
To take full advantage of the potential siRNAs present to drug discovery, Life Technologies now offers convenient siRNA screening services that combine our validated siRNA libraries with our validated cell-based assays.
Advantages of siRNA Screening
Validating novel targets or a wide-range of targets is challenged by the lack of known small molecule inhibitors for each target. The use of RNA interference utilizing siRNAs provides a unique solution to this problem.
siRNA screening addresses a broader number of targets and achieves specificity through target-specific knockdown. Adding siRNA screening to your early drug discovery screening programs can help to identify targets that traditional biochemical and cell-based screening and profiling may miss.
Our Process
Upon receipt of your initial inquiry, a dedicated project manager is assigned to your project to streamline communication throughout your project. Once the project requirements have been finalized by both parties, our siRNA screening process begins – with project steps summarized below.

Today I had a bit of regret slap me in the face. That face slap came from participation in a SQL Quiz on twitter that was hosted by Paul Randal (Blog | Twitter). The questions being thrown out there were deep technical internals type of questions. These weren't necessarily the type of questions that you would see in an interview and were for fun.
I say it was a bit of a face slap because I had an opportunity to attend an Internals training session presented by SQLSkills in Dallas but was unable to attend. It made me wonder how much more I would have been able to answer had I actually attended the course. If you have an opportunity to attend such an event – DO IT!
From the set of questions today, I learned quite a bit. The knowledge and wealth of information that you can gain by attending one of these events has got to be substantially more than what is presented in the measly ten questions posed in these Pop Quizzes that Paul has conducted.
Now I need to find my way into the Bellevue course.

wobnam wrote: What the ruler of Garheim (or the other factions) should be called hasn't been decided yet, but I doubt it will be king as this would be a bit confusing. Nor has it been decided what this rules looks like and who (if any) will control him - so for now, at least, I recommend keeping these characters out of your creations and focusing on your own character.
This is just a suggestion, but I think the in-game leader of a province could be the PO's character? That way, it would sort of be connected to who actually runs the faction. If there is to be any such thing, that system (and possibly the liaisons' characters, too) could give a minifigure cast to take part in royal councils, meetings and decision. On top of that, I think different in-game titles should be used for each province's leader and liaison, to mirror the different cultures.

Penn State Great Valley, a graduate professional studies campus in Malvern, is making changes to its educational programming to respond to the emerging needs of the region, changes in the way higher education is delivered, and opportunities for greater collaboration with other Penn State campuses in southeastern Pennsylvania.
Penn State Great Valley, located along Route 202, currently offers 14 advanced degree programs and also professional development courses leading to certification and career advancement. The campus will now offer undergraduate courses, as well as expanded graduate opportunities.
"The current state of the economy has increased the demand for graduate education at Great Valley in some professional fields while others have declined," said Rodney Erickson, executive vice president and provost of the University. "In expanding fields, we intend to offer graduate courses at additional locations, including Penn State's Brandywine and Abington campuses, and with a significantly increased focus in online delivery through Penn State's World Campus."
Erickson said that in fields with declining student demand, adjustments to program offerings, delivery methods and personnel will be made.
In addition, the current focus on part-time evening instruction in graduate education at the Great Valley campus provides an opportunity for daytime offerings of undergraduate courses delivered there by faculty from other Penn State campuses in the region, as well as Great Valley faculty. Undergraduate course offerings will begin at Great Valley sometime in the next academic year.
Erickson said that on-site graduate student enrollment at the Great Valley campus has declined along with the struggling economy as fewer businesses and other organizations are now providing tuition assistance to their employees; however, Penn State's online offerings through its World Campus have seen a significant increase in enrollment, and its other campuses have expressed a need for more graduate courses in their surrounding service areas.
"There are considerable opportunities for sharing more resources, more efficiently, across our campuses in the region to generate cost savings while improving our program offerings," said Craig Edelbrock, chancellor of the Great Valley campus. "We recognize that this campus is a tremendous community resource that can serve area residents better if we move now to meet the changing needs for both graduate and undergraduate education in the greater southeastern Pennsylvania region."
These changes to accommodate demand will result in some future personnel reductions in certain programming areas, particularly in the area of support staff.
The reorganization of the Great Valley campus is part of Penn State's continuing evaluation of University programs and operations that has been ongoing for more than a decade. To date, the University has identified more than $190 million in cost savings, with plans to identify substantial additional reductions annually in the years ahead.

Precision Blanking Line Three Times Faster, Quicker to Set Up
The overwhelming majority (80 percent) of the material processed at Morton runs through its seven blank-fed stamping presses, rated 400 to 800-ton capacity; one Minster press processes coil stock. The newest addition to the firm's pressroom is an 800-ton Clearing added in 2007. Additional value-added processing of the firm's safety grating products—including products for the industrial market such as work platforms, stair treads, ladder rungs and walks—occurs at its three Amada turret presses, a Whitney plasma-punch machine, 25 press brakes, and welding and finishing lines.
High-Speed Precision BlankingConverting nearly 100,000 lb. of steel coil per day into blanks at Morton Mfg. falls on the shoulders of its new precision blanking line, a 0.135-in.-capacity line from Red Bud Industries, Red Bud, IL. Morton installed the line in August 2008 to replace a 1974-vintage Red Bud blanking line that, while continued to run well, simply could not keep up with Morton's work load.
"At that time," recalls Morton Mfg. president Michael Ogden, harking back to late 2007 and early into 2008, "our blanking line was running three shifts a day, all week long, and it still could not meet our demand for blanks. We were forced to outsource some of our preprocessed blanking needs, and so decided to upgrade our blanking operation with a new and much more productive Red Bud line. Our new machine runs three times faster (120 to 150 ft./min.) than did the old one, and setup times are much quicker as well."
The new line literally hit the floor running, and Morton managed to have it up to full speed in less than two weeks' time. "We expected to have to keep the old machine running for at least 2 to 3 months," says Ogden, "while we learned the ins and outs of the new Red Bud. But our crew really had it up and running almost immediately, allowing us to decommission the old line, which we sold on the used market."
Nearly Twice the Feed Length
Included with Morton Mfg.'s new line is a coil lift, peeler breaker, straightener, support ramp, edge-trim station where strip is trimmed
Reducing setup time also has become critical for Morton, as it has for so many manufacturers today. Where once the firm used to run an entire coil using the same setup for edge trimming and feed length, now it's faced with performing as many as five or six setups per coil, as order size has shrunk. "Thanks to having all of the controls for the blanking line in one operator location," says Ogden, "we can change over the line in 5 min., nearly three times faster than before."
The Need for Speed
As the sayings go, "You can't teach speed," and, "There's no substitute for speed," and when you're processing blanks by the hundreds of thousands, both sayings ring true. "Not only is the new line fast," says Morton chief draftsman Alex LeBaron, "but it can run at rated speed even when we're performing edge trimming as specified by our customers. With the older machine, we had to reduce the line speed for edge trimming, so it could keep up with scrap chopping. We no longer face that restriction, and as a result the new line runs at about a three-to-one productivity improvement. We no longer need to outsource any of our blanking, and in fact we have plenty of excess capacity on the line to handle future growth when the railcar industry once again flourishes." MF

U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
WASHINGTON -- The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) announced today the release of the Enforcement Guidance on Sex Discrimination in the Compensation of Sports Coaches in Educational Institutions. The guidance, which was approved by the bi-partisan Commission, clarifies how the Equal Pay Act of 1963 and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 apply to sex-based differences in the compensation of sports coaches.
According to EEOC Legal Counsel, Ellen J. Vargyas, "Although Congress outlawed sex-discrimination in school-sponsored athletics programs over twenty-five years ago with the passage of Title IX, recent studies show that the overall pattern of the employment and compensation of coaches by educational institutions is still far from gender-neutral." Not only do these studies show that barely two percent of the coaches of men's teams are women, they also show that men's coaches, overall, substantially out-earn women's coaches in both salaries and benefits.
Vargyas further explained that, "Because jobs coaching male athletes appear to have been effectively limited to men, the pay disparities between coaches of men's and women's teams raise serious sex discrimination concerns under the employment discrimination laws." She continued, "The Commission has issued this guidance to assist both educational institutions and coaches in better understanding their rights and responsibilities under the laws."
The text of the policy statement will be available on EEOC's web site at www.eeoc.gov shortly after the release of the document. You can also obtain a copy by writing to EEOC's Office of Communications and Legislative Affairs, 1801 L Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20507.
In addition to enforcing the Equal Pay Act, and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, which prohibits discrimination in employment based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, EEOC enforces the Age Discrimination in Employment Act; Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act, which prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities in the private sector and state and local governments; prohibitions against discrimination affecting persons with disabilities in the federal government; and sections of the Civil Rights Act of 1991.

Pep: Cup success would give Man City self-belief
Pep Guardiola says City winning the FA Cup would help his players believe in themselves.
The Blues face the sizeable obstacle of Arsenal in the semi-final and the winners will then face either Chelsea or Spurs – but Pep believes winning the trophy would be so important for his team going into next season.
"For all clubs, titles are so important," said the City boss.
"Of course, titles help to win confidence that the club is able to do great things. Winning titles gives you the self-confidence to say we're good enough to compete. Whether we win the trophy or not, nothing will change in terms of expectations for us.
"I would like to win the FA Cup so my players realise how good they are. At the moment, they don't realise how good they are, but winning titles helps this. When you win a title, it's a lot of stress and pressure, and if you handle that the next time it will be a little bit easier. That's why it's important.
"My task is to show them how many good things they do in the game. Of course, they believe, but this is a fantastic club and team, I'm so proud of what we've done so far and how we've overcome bad moments such the way we played against Liverpool after the Champions League defeat to Monaco. That is what I want to see from my teams."
Arsenal v Man City: Gabriel Jesus boost, Stones ruled out
Asked whether he would tap into Yaya's Wembley experience and the fact he scored the winner on the 2011 FA Cup semi and final, Pep said: "What will I say to him? I will tell him to do it again!
"When he came back he played really good - there was a period he didn't play and he knows why. You know my opinion about him. Against Southampton, he played really well and he has been fantastic for us."
Finally, on his own Wembley experiences he admitted the venue will always hold a special place in his career both as a player and as a manager.
"Wembley is so important to me," he said. "Ronald Koeman scored against Sampdoria and Barcelona won the Champions League for the first time and, secondly against United at Wembley as a coach and especially in the way we played there. Wembley is important part of my life. To go back there will be always special."

A friend and I talked about the Phoenix Suns emergence as a basketball power. He made a very interesting and possibly revealing comment. He said, "if Steve Nash is so loveable, why is he the only one left in Phoenix?"
Joe Johnson left the Valley of the Sun as he developed his dynamic perimeter game. Shawn Marion left in his prime to join Dwyane Wade and a dysfunctional supporting cast. And now, Mike D'Antoni has escaped to New York.
For all of the love Steve Nash gets, some of Phoenix's best pieces have broken away. Nash is a great player, a couple MVPs have solidified that statement. But for all of the professed love, why has Phoenix ostracized several important pieces?
Of all the people in Phoenix, save Nash's hair stylist, I would never have guessed Mike D'Antoni would hurl himself away from the tree.
When asked, "the Knicks are a mess. When do you expect a full-scale intervention?" Steve Nash said it himself, in a 2006 SI interview, "At some point, they've got to hit the jackpot. We'll see…"
D'Antoni and Nash. Steve and Mike. These two names were whispered in unison. Nothing ever felt so right since Nash's amicable divorce from Dirk Nowitzki.
Maybe Joe Johnson really did want the money and a chance to lead a team. Maybe Shawn Marion and Mike D'Antoni were really pushed out the door. I certainly don't know the truth to this.
However, when a big cog or valuable player is forced out, the blame usually falls on the people left behind. See Kobe, when Shaq left. See Cuban, when Nash left. See Riley, when Shaq left. See Thorn, when Kidd left. See hill-billies, when Gasol left. (Kidding, Tennessee. I'll see you in a few months.)
I'm not calling for blame to fall on Nash at all. Everyone says that they love playing with him. But everyone's leaving. I really do enjoy watching Nash play. However, I also think it is notable that he was always left unscatched by the media.
Nash has a very agreeable public persona. Besides Nash's statement opposing the invasion of Iraq and his apparent revulsion to endorsements, the media lets his antics fly under the radar.
Will the Suns implode without D'Antoni? There's still a lot of faith in Steve Nash's playmaking skills. If the Suns do miss a step and eventually break up, I'm certain the blame will fall squarely on Shaquille O'Neal and Steve Kerr.
And for whatever reason, a chance for D'Antoni to plug his offensive scheme into the Knicks hasn't intrigued anyone outside of New York City limits.
The good vibes have always floated about Nash, a whirling dervish of positivity not unlike his floor game. I think that by November next season, we'll find out if it was Nash and D'Antoni or D'Antoni and Nash.

"I was looking at this MRI scan of a healthy brain" and it just sort of exploded, said Christopher Kane, referring to a magnificent show on Monday that encompassed tiny strings of rolled silk, woven across the body; camouflage patterns that looked as if their surfaces had been shredded; filigrees of wispy fabric, and the head scan that started it all printed across the chest of a dress.
What a fashion brain the designer must have to have conceived all these original ideas, executed them in his tiny East London studio and offered them as a gift to his new owner, François-Henri Pinault, chairman and chief executive of the luxury group PPR. He sat front row with his wife Salma Hayek and with Donatella Versace, who invited Mr. Kane to work with her Versus line in 2009.
''Such creativity," said Mr. Pinault. But even that compliment did not do justice to the prolific talent of the 30-year-old Scottish designer, who is as adept at creating a camouflage kilt and playing with its traditional leather straps and buckles as he is in rolling silk to the width of a pipe cleaner and weaving it to make the tactile strings of a slim dress.
If the collection was perfect, it was because it was also imperfect: Narrow pieces of material had been pulled away to reveal flesh; feathers were used to look like fraying seams, and the entire effect of the camouflage outfits was of unfinished, ruffled surfaces. Yet other elements of the collection — especially the lavish use of deep pile fox fur — were hyper-sophisticated and luxurious.
And still the show went on, exploring new silhouettes with broader shoulders, adding knitted fluffy tops or sculpted silver neckpieces and bracelets. Then there was that final explosion of Mr. Kane's vision: dresses with filament fringing giving an other-worldly effect.
It was one of those rapturous moments for fashion professionals confirming what they knew. Here is a young talent that has already exploded — with ideas.
Mr. Kane's show offered a fashion yardstick to mark the rise of a new, and mostly British, generation of designers. It blew the audience's mind and will feed the brain cells of the global fashion world.
Christopher Bailey called his Burberry Prorsum show "Trench Kisses," hence the heart-patterned handbags. The same print was on underpants that showed through a translucent raincoat, which the troops who once wore Burberry's famous trenchcoats are unlikely to have seen as it was made of rubber.
The hard side of love was played — not the romantic music from Tom Odell and his live band, revealed from behind the backdrop halfway through the show, but rather in the mix of romantic and edgy: gilded eyelets punching though skirts or rivets on the bodice of a dress. There was even a version of embellishment that looked like ring pulls and soda can tabs.
Gold at its brightest and hardest was a theme throughout, along with animal prints that appeared on the sporty clothes and on the new Burberry shoe — low, with a curving heel and a look of the 1960s. That figured, for Mr. Bailey's other message was of the inspiration of Christine Keeler, a call girl whose sexual exploits helped to discredit the British government in 1963. That idea brought a piquant touch to a show that, as the designer himself said, was otherwise "a collection of classics."
Mr. Bailey is to be admired for his slick and lively shows, season after season, keeping Burberry on the high road — right up to cyberspace.
"I've always been afraid of black, but there is the duality of my woman. I wanted something that felt a bit darker, a bit Ingmar Bergman," said Erdem, as the designer Erdem Moralioglu is known, referring to the films of the Swedish director and saying that he wanted to play with different shades of black.
Riffs on the book title "Fifty Shades of Grey" have become commonplace. But the designer talked backstage about using veiled flesh as "insinuations of skin." Maybe he also was suggesting "sin," for in this collection familiar pink blooms were shaded with black chiffon or ostrich feathers wafted over the surface, making the clothes sensual but never vulgar.
In the past, the designer has seemed a little too polite, not quite raw enough for the London scene. But this collection had more sexual heft.
The Erdem look has been developed as cocktail wear. But there were tweeds too for this winter season: a coat woven with gleaming PVC, or polyvinyl chloride, one of the many jolting fabric mixes that make the designer's correct clothes seem modern. Even bright, three-dimensional embroidered flowers seemed to float on organza.
"There is a wonderful freedom with winter clothes," the designer said, referring to the speed in which the shows have to be readied between Christmas and February. But he might equally have been speaking about his own relaxed attitude.

When transporting drugs in your vehicle, remember to always signal. Otherwise you might end up like 18-year-old Art Taylor who, upon being pulled over for not signaling, freaked out and swallowed a bag of cocaine. His mugshot says it all.
According to Framingham, Mass. police, they struggled with the teenager to stop him from swallowing a bag of white powder after they stopped him for a minor traffic offense.
"He made a quick movement to the center console, and there was small baggie with a white powder in it," said Police Spokesperson Ron Brandolini. "He immediately made a movement to put it in his mouth."
The officers were able to handcuff Talyor and remove him from the car, but not before swallowing what's believed to be cocaine. The suspected criminal was charged with assault and battery on a police officer, disorderly conduct, and not using a turn signal. It doesn't appear as if drug charges were brought upon him, which we guess makes his gambit kind of successful.
