Phenylketonuria (also known as PKU) can be a very severe and debilitating condition. Oftentimes the people who suffer from the effects of untreated Phenylketonuria are unable to provide for themselves. Managing day-to-day life responsibilities can be a challenge, let alone the responsibilities of a full-time job. Because of this, the families of individuals with PKU are often left supporting the family member who suffers from the effects caused by the condition. This can result in a significant financial burden. Fortunately, Social Security Disability benefits can offset the financial crisis caused by the PKU condition. If someone you know is suffering from Phenylketonuria and you are wondering whether or not they may qualify for disability benefits, the following information can help you navigate the Social Security Disability application process.
Phenylketonuria is a rare genetic condition that creates a deficiency in the phenylalanine hydroxylase enzyme. The human body needs this enzyme in order to break down the phenylalanine amino acid. When there is not enough enzyme in the body to break down the amino acid, the resulting build-up becomes toxic to the central nervous system. This can result in a variety of severe side effects, including brain damage.
The phenylalanine amino acid is found in high-protein foods like chicken, fish, meat, eggs, cheese, nuts, bread, pasta and corn. Aspartame also contains phenylalanine. When a person suffers from Phenylketonuria, they need to monitor the amount of these foods they consume and do whatever they can to minimize the levels of phenylalanine in the body.
Classic PKU is the most serious form of Phenylketonuria. If this condition goes untreated it can result in permanent brain damage. Less severe cases of Phenylketonuria possess a lesser risk of brain damage, but individuals suffering from these conditions must also monitor the amount of phenylalanine they consume in order to avoid complications and brain damage.
It is important that PKU is diagnosed at birth. If an infant goes undiagnosed and a low phenylalanine diet is not immediately introduced, brain damage or mental retardation can occur within one year of birth. Babies who suffer from Phenylketonuria may be breast fed, but the mother's diet must be monitored and the intake of breast milk must also be restricted. Breast-fed babies who are diagnosed with Phenylketonuria must also be given a special formula in addition to the breast milk.
Phenylketonuria is normally diagnosed during routine infant health screenings and the PKU test is required by law in most states. These tests are usually conducted within the first two weeks of birth through a standard heel-prick blood test. If a baby tests positive for PKU, treatment options will be recommended.
While there is no cure for Phenylketonuria, treatment can help manage the condition. While untreated PKU can result in brain damage and mental retardation, babies who are treated from birth can go on to lead normal, healthy and productive lives with little to no side effects. Problems usually only develop when the condition goes undetected or untreated. When left untreated, individuals suffering from PKU may face brain damage, seizures, tremors, eczema, stunted growth and behavioral problems.
When an individual applies for Social Security Disability benefits, the disability examiner refers to a published listing of impairments referred to as the SSA Blue Book. The Phenylketonuria condition is listed in this Blue Book under Section 10.00 in paragraph C.2. Because the severity of PKU cases vary from individual to individual, however, a diagnosis of PKU in and of itself is not enough to qualify a person for Social disability benefits.
In order to qualify for Social Security Disability benefits as a result of Phenylketonuria, you must prove to the Social Security Administration (SSA) that the applicant is unable to participate in work activity due to the severity of the condition. Your application must include sufficient medical records to prove this fact. A medical history documenting the severity of the PKU condition, any side effects or complications that have occurred because of it and how the Phenylketonuria affects the applicant's day-to-day activities will go a long way in qualifying an individual for disability benefits.
Approximately 70 percent of Social Security Disability applications are denied at the initial stage of the application process. If you have clear medical evidence documenting a severe case of Phenylketonuria and can show through medical records how the condition prevents gainful work activity, you may be able to obtain benefits in the initial stage of the application process. If, however, your Social Security Disability application is one of the 70 percent of applications that are denied during the initial application stage, you will need to file an appeal in order to receive Social Security Disability benefits.
Fortunately, you do not have to go through the Social Security Disability process alone. If you have been denied disability benefits during the initial disability application process you should consult with a qualified Social Security Disability attorney. Statistics show that hiring an attorney can increase your chances of successfully appealing a denied disability application and receiving benefits at a disability hearing. The good news is that nearly two-thirds of appeals are decided in the favor of the applicant at this stage, so a denied disability application does not necessarily mean that you will not be awarded the benefits you need at a future date.

The Battle of Cedar Mountain was the first serious clash between the Army of Northern Virginia and Maj. Gen. John Pope's new Army of Virginia. The close-run Confederate victory at Cedar Mountain was the springboard for the 1862 Northern Virginia campaign that brought the fighting back to the fields of Manassas in August of 1862.
Fact #1. Robert E. Lee hoped to bring his whole army to bear upon newly appointed Union commander John Pope before he could be reinforced.
While Pope moved against the rail junction at Gordonville, Virginia, Lee divided his forces, remaining opposite General George B. McClellan while sending a separate force under "Stonewall" Jackson to smash Pope's army before McClellan could reinforce him. Pope divided his forces along the Rapidan River, which presented Jackson an opportunity to strike at the divided Union columns. But the oppressive heat, Jackson's own secrecy, and confusion among his subordinate generals hampered Confederate progress and gave Pope crucial time to send reinforcements under General Franz Sigel to join with General Nathaniel Banks at Cedar Mountain.
Fact #2. At Cedar Mountain, there were twice as many Confederate forces as Union troops.
The Confederacy brought more than 16,000 men to bear against the 8,000 Union soldiers at Cedar Mountain. Like Gaines' Mill six weeks earlier, the battle flies in the face of the conventional wisdom stating that the Federals always had superior numbers on the battlefield.
Fact #3. Upon arriving in the east, Pope published a series of incendiary orders against the civilian populace of Virginia and antagonized the men of his own army.
Orange-Culpeper Road toward "The Gate"
The only remaining image showing how Winder may have looked when he died.
Fact #4. Confederate General Charles S. Winder was killed in the artillery barrage that preceded the battle.
Winder was sick for several days before the battle, and his doctor advised him not to fight. He refused. Stirred by what Jackson later called "ardent patriotism and military pride," Winder mounted his horse and charged toward the Confederate artillery fire, which signaled the beginning of the battle. During the fierce cannonade that followed, an errant shell crashed amid the Confederate artillery and ripped through Winder's left side. Winder was carried to a nearby schoolhouse, where he died a few hours later. A modern road near the old battlefield now bears his name.
Fact #5. The Crittenden Gate stood at the center of the Confederate line at the battle.
The Confederates positioned their artillery along an intersection at the Orange-Culpeper Road and Crittenden Lane (named for a prominent family in the area). That spot became known as "the Gate." Although Confederate guns fired shot after shot from this position for nearly two hours at the start of the battle, Union cannon rained deadly return fire which slowed any possible advance of Confederate infantry through the area. Union men of the 46th Pennsylvania, the 28th New York, and 5th Connecticut Infantry units nearly seized this position before the arrival of Confederate reinforcements on the battlefield.
Fact #6. Cedar Mountain was the only battle in which Stonewall Jackson ever drew his sword.
Fact #7. Confederate General A.P. Hill arrived at Cedar Mountain in the nick of time to save the day.
As Jackson waved his sword in a gallant and desperate effort to buoy his men, A.P. Hill arrived with the six brigades of his Light Division. Their intervention and successful mounting of a counterattack as the sun set on the battlefield won the day for the Confederates. Hill repeated the feat just over a month later at the Battle of Antietam, arriving on the field just as Confederate defenses before the town of Sharpsburg seemed on the verge of collapse—saving the entire Army of Northern Virginia from certain destruction.
Fact #8. The first photos of dead horses on an American battlefield were taken at Cedar Mountain.
Mathew Brady photographer Timothy O'Sullivan took the only photographs of the battle's aftermath. O'Sullivan helped usher in the era of documentary photography first at Cedar Mountain and then at Antietam the following month when the first photos of dead soldiers on an on an American battlefield were seen by the public.
Fact #9. Clara Barton performed her first field duty after the Battle of Cedar Mountain.
While the eventual "Angel of the Battlefield" took it upon herself to care for wounded soldiers in Washington, D.C., and on the battlefield after Bull Run in 1861, she only received official permission to accompany the U.S. Army to the front lines on August 3, 1862. Cedar Mountain erupted six days later and Barton spent two days and nights on the battlefield tending to the wounded, including Confederate prisoners, after her arrival on August 13.
Fact #10. The Civil War Trust has preserved several hundred acres at Cedar Mountain.
Part of this land sits around Virginia routes 15 and 657 (General Winder Road). It includes the area where Crittenden Gate once stood, along with a wheat field in which some of the bloodiest fighting of the battle took place. The Trust preserved 152 acres there in 1998 and added two more in 2010.
The battle is named for a nearby mountain in the Virginia Piedmont seven miles south of Culpeper, Virginia.
A man named Slaughter owned a prominent house on Cedar Mountain.
The Battle of Cedar Mountain is also known as Slaughter's Mountain and Cedar Run.
The battle was fought on an exceptionally hot day. It was 98 degrees as of 2 pm and fighting did not commence until 3:30, the hottest part of the day. William F. Goodhue, a private with 3rd Wisconsin Infantry regiment, noted that "[the sun's] burning rays stung and blistered our unprotected and upturned faces with all the fervor of a mustard plaster." This heat contributed to the difficulties faced by Jackson's army early in the battle.
Cedar Mountain marked A.P. Hill's first service under the command of Jackson and began a feud between the two men that would rage until Jackson's death.
Despite being outnumbered, the Federals attacked first at the battle. Confederate infantry and artillery dug in around the area of "the Gate" and were unable to counterattack after being pinned down by Union cannon.
August 9th, 1862, was the 46th Pennsylvania Infantry's bloodiest day when it charged against Stonewall Jackson across a wheat field. Of more than 500 engaged, 244 were lost.
In the early 1900s, Judge Daniel A. Grimsley placed 56 stones at Cedar Mountain to mark the positions of Union and Confederate units at the beginning of the battle.

Your essential tour for a comprehensive, chronological understanding of Germany's capital city. We will trace Berlin's history from its 13th-century origins as a village of the banks of the river Spree, finding the few legacies that remain of the medieval town, through to the 18th-century rise to power of the Prussian King Friedrich the Great and the development of a city demographically unique in Europe.
For twelve tumultuous years of the 'one thousand' to which Adolf Hitler aspired, Berlin was the capital city of the Third Reich. At the end of this era, the city lay in tatters, reduced by the Fuehrer's tyrannical ambitions to the largest mass of ruins anywhere in Europe. Nevertheless, many architectural legacies of the National Socialist dictatorship can be found in the city today. We can pursue Hitler's rapid rise to power from the building in which Hitler made his first speech made in the capital to the location of his first Berlin home.
From shortly after World War Two up until 1990, Berlin was the focal point of the Cold War. Divided into four sectors by and occupied by troops from Britain, America, France and the Soviet Union in 1945, tensions between the victorious powers led to an increasing polarization between the Allied West and the Soviet East which would find its apex in the German capital, leading to the building of the Berlin Wall in 1961. On this tour, we can visit the seat of government of the DDR – the House of Ministries, bedecked with the social realist mural entitled the 'Building of Socialism'.
For hundreds of years before the Nazis and their genocide of the European Jews, and for decades thereafter, Berlin has boasted a remarkably liberal and dynamic Jewish population which today calls itself the fastest-growing in the world outside Israel. On this tour, we can trace the very earliest legacies of Berlin's Jewish population in the 13th century, before visiting the site of the first major Jewish settlement.
A short journey from Berlin will bring us to the site of the concentration camp Sachsenhausen, established by the National Socialist dictatorship in 1936. At this 'prototype' camp, the first in Nazi Germany to be designed and built to serve its intended purpose, around 200,000 people would be held until the liberation in April 1945. For 5 years after World War Two, the Soviet Union retained the camp as its own prison, incarcerating a further 60,000 people until 1950.

Vitamin C is a well-known and effective antioxidant. When combined with our NTFactor® technology it is a premier antioxidant. As an antioxidant, Vitamin C works to slow down the damage caused by free radical, and may even prevent some. However, the combination of NTFactor® allows for the repair of cell damage as well. C-Complex is a complex due to the fact that it has been combined with vitamin B, to facilitate its travel through the body, and quercetin and bioflavanoids to boost the antihistamine effect. Buffered with Calcium, it is gentle on the body. Add the absorption and fatigue fighting power of NTFactor® and you have a powerful tool for your overall health and immunity.
Vitamin C was the first antioxidant discovered by scientists. It is a water-soluble vitamin with numerous biological functions. However, people do not have the ability to naturally produce vitamin C.
Vitamin C has several functions. It is required for the making of collagen, an important component of blood vessels, tendons, ligaments and bones. Vitamin C plays a key role in the formation of the neurotransmitter, norepinephrine. Neurotransmitters are vital to normal brain function and can affect mood. Additionally, vitamin C is required for the body's use of carnitine. Carnitine is a small molecule that is essential for the transport of fat to the mitochondria within each cell membrane, to convert fat to energy. For this to happen the outside cell membrane, or lipid, must be functioning properly.
By itself, vitamin C is an effective antioxidant. Even in smaller amounts it can protect cells in the body from damage caused by free radicals and reactive oxidative stress. Such damage can be caused by normal metabolism along with exposure to outside environmental toxins and stress. However, NTFactor® allows for the repair of any damage. NTFactor® is the only technology scientifically proven able to do this.
Recent research by the Linus Pauling Institute of Oregon State University, has suggested that vitamin C may play a role in many heart related conditions, including high blood pressure, Angina, and the related risk of heart attack. Acting as an antioxidant, it functions to protect LDL cholesterol form oxidative damage. When LDL is damaged, cholesterol is seen to lead to heart disease. Vitamin C also appears to protect against heart disease in general by reducing the stiffness of arteries and the tendency of platelets to clump together.
It has also been seen as a means to reduce the deterioration of eye and kidney function in people with Type II Diabetes.
Vitamin C comes in two forms, Ascorbic Acid and Ascorbate. The most popular form is ascorbate. However ascorbate alone has been shown to cause stomach irritation. Buffered with calcium the irritation is done away with.
The addition of vitamin B to any vitamin or nutritional supplement, allows it to act as a vacillator throughout the bloodstream, permitting the nutrient to travel through the body more easily.

History of the Second World War, Volume 6
These POWs promised a quick victory in December were humbled by defeat and capture in February dismounted infantry making slow sometimes costly flanking moves through deep snow. Bridges everywhere were demolished the sites defended so that just as with the roadblocks winter-weary infantry had to plod upstream or down to find an uncontested ford, then wade the icy stream to take the Germans in flank finding inmost cases that the foe at the last moment pulled back to fight again another day. The Germans occasionally counterattacked: five or six tanks a company or a battalion of infantry at a time. Under these conditions to advance 2 miles a day was a major achievement. The 3rd Army had it as hard and more so for the defences in the vicinity of Bastogne reflected the large concentration of German forces therefor the various efforts to take the town. Bitterly cold, stung by biting winds and driven snow nostrils frozen Patton's troops saw little change in a pattern too long familiar. The Germans opposing them were old and dreaded foe s-su ch units as the I IX and XII SS Panzer Divisions the V Parachute the Panzer Lehr. Accustomed too were the place names the same towns and villages where little clots of tanks and infantry a fortnight before had thwarted the Germans in the race for Bastogne although these were less towns and villages now than macabre monuments to the destructiveness of war. Yet for all the rigour of the fighting it became apparent on January 5 that the final crisis at Bastogne had passed. When Field- Marshal Model pulled out one of the SS Panzer divisions togo to the aid of the VI Panzer Army in the north General von Manteuffel took it upon himself to pull another of the SS Panzer divisions from the line to form a reserve. Three days later on January 8 Hitler himself authorised withdrawal from the tip of the bulge not all the way back to Houffalize as Manteuffel had asked but to aline anchored on a series of ridges 5 miles west of Houffalize. This was the Fuhrers first grudging admission that the counteroffensive in the Ardennes had failed utterly. Dietrichs VI Panzer Army he directed was-gradually to relinquish control of all but the SS Panzer divisions to Manteuffel's V Panzer Army whereupon these four divisions were to assemble in the rear Stat Vith. There they were ostensibly to guard against attacks near the base of the bulge: but in reality they were executing the first instep leaving the Ardennes entirely. As Hitler's advisers in the East had long been warning a powerful new Russian offensive was destined to begin any day. It would actually start on January 12 and Hitler on January 22 would order the VI Panzer Army to move with all speed to the Eastern Front. Meanwhile early on January 16 patrols of the US 1st and 3rd Armies met at Houffalize. Rent apart by the counteroffensive the two armies had joined hands at the waist of the bulge failing to trap many of the elusive foe but setting the stage for the return of Hodges 1st Army to General Bradleys command. This General Eisenhower would order effective the next day at the same time retaining Simpsons 9th Army under Montgomery with an eye toward renewing an Allied offensive toward the Ruhr. It would take another eight days to push in what was left of the bulge in a slow contest against weather and long-proven German ingenuity on the defence. Back to St. Vith back to Clerf back to Echternach back to the Skyline Drive back to many another spot where American infantrymen surprised frightened but determined, had purchased a commodity called time. On January 22 the clouds finally cleared dramatically. A brilliant sun came up its rays dancing on anew snow cover. Pilots were early in the air jubilant to find German vehicles stalled bumper to bumper waiting their turn to cross ice-encrusted bridges over the Our river into Germany. Astride the Skyline Drive infantrymen cheered to seethe carnage that both air and artillery wrought. By January 28 the last vestige of the bulge in the Ardennes had disappeared. The cost of the campaign Of some 600000 Americans who fought in the A rdennes-m ore than participated on both sides at 000 Gettysburg-81 were killed, wounded or captured and the British incurred 1400 casualties. The Germans probably lost 100000 killed wounded or captured. Both sides lost heavily in weapons and equipment probably as many as 800 tanks on each side and the Germans 1000 aircraft. Yet the Americans could replace their losses in little more than a fortnight while the Germans could no longer make theirs good. The Germans nevertheless had managed to extricate almost all 2248 U S Army

The U.S. Senate confirmed Glendale entrepreneur Hector V. Barreto Jr. to head the Small Business Administration.
Lawmakers approved President Bush's nominee by voice vote.
Barreto, 39, owns an employee-benefits company and is a former head of the Latin Business Assn. He will head an agency whose budget Bush has proposed cutting from $900 million to $539 million next year.


I love Disney films. Actually, I love most animation films. It is the child in me and the giddy little girl that loves to dream of worlds with magic and kingdoms and the prospect of true love. But as someone that likes to think of herself as a feminist, in my adult years I have become more and more concerned with the fact that "Disney Princesses" have become a whole franchise on their own that take away the great things about the princesses in the 1990-2000s film and reduce them back to Snow White-esque films. The little girl who knows no better than to clean a house, sing a song, and then almost die, only to be saved by a kiss from a creepy guy that has been trying to track her down because he heard her sing once. Seriously, that's kind of scary. Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella and The Little Mermaid portray these women who are only present to be "won" by a prince and then married off to them. Most of the time they don't even hold a conversation before falling deeply in love. And then we have the 90s princesses. Fierce women like Belle, Mulan, Pocahontas, Jasmine and Tiana who are women whose first priority isn't to marry but to be great women. They reject the stereotype of true love and want to be women who are strong and independent women. But they all end up married or in love anyway. Then in the 2010 we were given Rapunzel, a princess who verges between the pre-90s and 90s princesses. Someone who does housework but is also seeking independence and freedom, and who also, just like all the others, falls in love. I love Tangled but there is always that itching feeling that it is coated in that "Disney Princess" franchise femininity that makes me cringe.
In 2012 Disney gave us Merida. The first Disney Princess that doesn't fall in love. Where the story is about a mother-daughter relationship rather than a prince-princess relationship. And it was great. So when Frozen arrived on our screens this year I was anxious. I wondered whether Disney would continue with this theme of not needing a man to be a whole person, or whether they would go back to their roots that they had tried to get rid of. Disney did not disappoint. They managed to combine both stories of true love and equality in fantastic fashion. Two strong female characters, one your Sleeping Beauty type and the other Merida type. The rejection of traditional "true love" and the exploration of real love, was heartwarming. Elsa and Anna are princesses that I would like to look up to. Women who don't let themselves be controlled by society but help shape it to fit them and create a world of inclusion rather than exclusion. Disney managed to turn their archetypes of hero and villain around and surprise us for once. It is funny, sad, inspiring, surprising, uplifting and visually gorgeous.
Frozen, even with its flaws (yes it still does have some), is a film that I will watch and re-watch like I have Beauty and the Beast and Mulan. Sisters forever!


Morning cup of random 02/01/19. 36 photos.
Welcome back to morning cup of random. Finally the weekend is here after a long week and tonight we get to cut loose a little bit. Just remember to keep it classy. Grab your coffee and let's get this show on the road with a dose of random craziness from around the world.
Nothing like a nice morning stretch.
Got to keep warm somehow.
Got their own swimming pool.
No way that is photo shopped.
When you got to be there at any cost.
Just a little chilly out there.
Hot water and cold temperatures make for a nice photo.
Don't lose your head, it's the weekend.
Some people have the skills.
Taking the family for an outing.
I don't think I'd want to be that close but it is a great shot.
Training to catch that cat.
Morning cup of random 12/03/18. 52 photos.

Greek right attempt comeback with nationalist rally
by Panos Garganas in Athens

Right wing organisations in Greece organised a large nationalist demonstration in the capital Athens on Sunday.
They were protesting against the right of the Republic of Macedonia, which is to the north of Greece, to use the name Macedonia. It shares the name with a neighbouring region in Greece.
Greek prime minister Alexis Tsipras has been trying to settle the question as a condition for Macedonia joining the European Union (EU) and Nato.
On the face of it the rally was over a ridiculous issue—two countries having a dispute over a name.
But there are two factors to keep in mind. Greece is a member of the EU and Nato.
It is putting conditions for the Republic of Macedonia to join so Greek capitalism can gain influence in the region.
The other factor is internal politics in Greece. The organisers of the rally were figures of the far right, but they had the backing of the Tory New Democracy party.
The Tories have been trying to make a comeback, but they don't have much chance by focusing on economic issues.
They collapsed three years ago because they were implementing austerity.
So now New Democracy is using the nationalist card. The right claim that Macedonia wants to use the name to claim part of northern Greece.
This is nonsense. The military balance between Greece and the Republic of Macedonia is overwhelmingly in favour of Greece. So the idea that it might attack Greece is out of the question.
But the rally was partly an attempt to get left-leaning people who are angry with the Syriza government to join the nationalist rally.
That hasn't worked. The aim was to bring together one million people on the march, but the reality was closer to 140,000. That may seem big, but the rally didn't draw a broader audience beyond the forces that the right can mobilise.
We say two things in the face of this. One is that Macedonia can choose whatever name it likes.
We are opposed to the EU and Nato, but it's up to the people of Macedonia to decide that.
Second, the nationalist campaign gives cover to the Nazis. The Nazi Golden Dawn appeared on the rally.
The Tories gave them that opportunity—they couldn't appear at a mass rally in any other way.
Syriza came to office through the collapse of the traditional parties. So the danger that the far right will use this campaign to grow is real.
But on the other hand the fightback against austerity measures imposed by the EU and implemented by Syriza has come from the left. People have gone on strike against them.
There is a danger that the nationalist campaign will deflect that, but we are confident that we can fight them back.
'We'll be demanding the government grants asylum to all the refugees'

Anti-racists and anti-fascists in Greece are mobilising for protests on 17 March—the UN's international anti-racism day.
There will be demonstrations in Athens and eight other cities—so it's a national event.
These are now even more important because the nationalist demonstrations have given space to the far right and Nazi Golden Dawn.
Golden Dawn leaders are on trial for murder. They should be in jail, not taking part in mass rallies outside the Greek parliament.
The demonstrations on 17 March will give an opportunity for people to show they won't leave any room for the Nazis to benefit from the nationalist campaign. The anti-fascist Keerfa coalition organised protests and pickets in the run-up to the nationalist demonstration on Sunday. They have helped to build for 17 March.
For instance, in the run-up to the nationalist rally a fascist group painted a swastika on a memorial for people who fought against the Nazis in the Second World War.
So Keerfa organised a local demo. But we're not just campaigning against the threat of the far right. Linked to this is the question of the refugees.
This is very important in Greece because there are so many people who are trapped in the Greek islands. So the other aspect of 17 March is opposing the racist agreement between the EU and Turkey that blocks refugees in the Aegean Sea.
We'll be demanding that the agreement between the EU and Turkey is scrapped and that the refugees who are trapped on the Greek islands are granted asylum.
Europe's rulers find billions for clampdown on refugees
Protests set to take place across Europe as EU and Turkey debate how to stop refugees
Syrian refugees in Greece speak out - 'We've decided to live like humans'
Big anti-racist demos welcome refugee children into Greek schools
The fight against racism is international, says activist in Greece
Nazi boat is blocked in Mediterranean ports, but refugees face other obstacles
Workers set for new general strike in Greece as Syriza government plans more austerity
Greece brought to a standstill as workers go on general strike
Transport strike in Greece cancels flights and brings trains and buses to a standstill

The Mueller illusion
Daniel Flitton
What the long investigation has really exposed is more of the same old politics at play.
Special Counsel Robert Mueller leaves the US Capitol Building following a meeting with the Senate Judiciary Committee in June 2017 (Photo: Zach Gibson via Getty)

No collusion. Or as Donald would say, NO COLLUSION! The report is in, the argument will still go on, yet as one America-based Australian correspondent has already declared, this "has delivered the US President one of the best days of his presidency".
Mueller became some kind of mythical white knight for many Trump-haters and nothing short of a cartoon villain for the President's most ardent supporters.
Plenty more will be said in the weeks ahead about the investigation and findings of Special Counsel Robert Mueller. The speculative and expectant media debate about what the former FBI chief would conclude about allegations of ties between Russia and the Trump campaign in 2016, and who would or wouldn't be indicted, will doubtless be interpreted a defining episode of Trump's term in office. Mueller became some kind of mythical white knight for many Trump-haters and nothing short of a cartoon villain for the President's most ardent supporters. Now many of those assumptions could be sharply reversed.
But this didn't all begin with claims of collusion. Let's just rewind for a moment to the earliest days of the Trump presidency, soon after he'd won the election but before he was sworn in.
It was then in January 2017 that US intelligence chiefs briefed the incoming president on their joint assessment about Moscow's actions during the US presidential election. A declassified version released publicly read:
We assess Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered an influence campaign in 2016 aimed at the US presidential election. Russia's goals were to undermine public faith in the US democratic process, denigrate Secretary Clinton, and harm her electability and potential presidency. We further assess Putin and the Russian Government developed a clear preference for President-elect Trump.
That statement puts the responsibility squarely on Putin. And further deliberate language was notable in the press statement that accompanied the release of the intelligence report:
The Intelligence Community did not make an assessment of the impact that Russian activities had on the outcome of the 2016 election.
Nor did that declassified report make any explicit reference to involvement by Trump campaign officials.
So at some point in the months that followed there was a distinct shift in subject – from being a debate about claims of Russian interference to one of alleged collusion with the Trump campaign. And for that, the dossier produced by former MI6 agent Christopher Steele became a key focus.
True, the Steele claims were also known at the time of the release of the declassified intelligence assessment but said not to be crucial to the findings of Russian interference. But the shift in the political debate in the early months of 2017 was notable, fuelled by Trump's repeated "no collusion" claims, even though at the outset the allegation was one of Russian interference. This was then fed by media stories claiming this, that, and the other about the apparent collusion as the subsequent investigation unfolded.
Not that questions don't remain. As the US Attorney General described it, the Mueller report "did not draw a conclusion – one way or the other" about whether Trump's conduct amounted to obstruction of justice, although again, that's not directly a question of alleged collusion. Likewise, political opponents and analysts loudly anticipating Mueller's findings would spell the end for the Trump presidency must examine why.
Reflecting on all the noisy reporting about the release of the summary of the Mueller report, and probably for no better reason than the similarity of the name, I couldn't help thinking about a well-established concept from cognitive psychology. What is known as the "Müller-Lyer illusion", named for its 19th-century creator Franz Carl Müller-Lyer, presents two straight lines side-by-side, each tipped with arrows in different directions.
The question is which horizontal line is longer?
Source: Wikimedia Commons
If on a quick glance you guessed the bottom one, you're not alone. As humans, we process more complex versions of shapes such as these every day, for example flipping it vertically to look at the corner of a room where the wall meets the ceiling, the floor or a door. This unconscious process allows us to make instant judgements about distance. We make what are generally safe assumptions rather than devoting brain power to what would be a laborious task of finding our way around in the world. But such assumptions can be upended, the mind can be tricked. In fact, without the arrows, the lines in the diagram above are identical.
All of which is a long way of making an observation on the "same, same, but different" character of the debate about the Mueller report. For all the heat, allegation, claim and counter-claim surrounding the investigation, the argument is really about looking at the same issues from wildly different perspectives. The facts only occasionally come into focus. And it seems in politics, none of that is going to soon change.

China's Type 62 light tank was based on the Type 59 main battle tank.
The Type 62 light tank was designed to be lighter than the Type 59 MBT, so that the Type 62 would be easier to operate in the rugged terrain that exists in southern China.
NORINCO (China North Industries Corporation) began developing the Type 62 light tank in 1958.
The tank entered service in 1963.
The overall combat weight of the Type 62 light tank is just 21 tons (21,000kg).
The 520hp engine on the Type 59 MBT was replaced by a lighter 430hp engine on the Type 62 light tank.
The wheels and tracks of the Type 62 light tank are lighter than those of the Type 59 main battle tank.
The Type 62 light tank has a torsion bar suspension with five pairs of road wheels. The idler is in the front and the drive sprocket is in the back.
On the Type 62 light tank, the 3.94 inch (100mm) main gun of the Type 59 MBT has been replaced with a lighter 3.35 inch (85mm) gun.
Secondary armament on the Type 62 light tank consists of a 0.3 inch (7.62mm) coaxial machine gun, a 0.3 inch (7.62mm) gun that is fixed to the glacis plate and a 0.5 inch (12.7mm) anti-aircraft gun.
The Type 62 light tank can create a smoke screen by injecting diesel fuel into the exhaust.
Later models of the Type 62 have a laser rangefinder over the main gun.
A four-man crew – driver, commander, gunner and loader – operates the Type 62 light tank.
The layout is the same as on the Type 59 MBT.
The driver sits at the front left of the tank. The commander and gunner sit in the left of the turret and the loader sits in the right of the turret.
The engine and transmission are in the rear of the tank.
The Type 62 light tank does not have NBC protection.
The Type 62 light tank saw combat during the in the Vietnam War and during the 1979 Sino-Vietnamese war.
Production of the Type 62 light tank is believed to have ended in 1989.
However, the Type 62 light tank is still used by China's Army and Marines.
The Type 62 light tank is also in service with North Korea, Vietnam, Sudan, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Mali, Tanzania, Bangladesh and Albania.

Q: Is redundancy ok in GraphQL? Say I have the following types in my schema:
type Deposit { timestamp, ... }

type Withdrawal { timestamp, ... }

type Cancellation { timestamp, ... }

There's a page in my app where I display the transaction history. Since there's no rule enforcing the order of transactions (except for the first deposit, of course), I can't know the chronological order in advance, even if each type has a timestamp property.
Now, I could write a sorting algorithm, but I'd avoid adding complexity to my codebase.
So I thought about doing this:
type History { transactionType }

Where transactionType is either "Deposit", "Withdrawal" or "Cancellation".
But of course, this comes at the expense of redundancy on my server. Is this good GraphQL practice?

Shrimp is an important type of a seafood which is consumed all over the world. The following article provides various recipes for churning out delicious, lip-smacking shrimp appetizers.
Shrimp are widely spread and play an important role in the food chain. They are extensively farmed for human consumption, as its muscular tail is considered to be extremely delicious. They are a rich source of omega-fatty acids, and have low amounts of mercury (considered toxic). They are considered healthy for the circulatory system, and are a great source of calcium, proteins, and iodine. Common methods of preparation include baking, frying, and grilling.
This is one dish that you would want to serve during the Halloween!
To marinate, combine the shrimp with wine, lemon peel, chili garlic sauce (half tablespoon), and salt. Follow this by tossing it well. Keep it aside for about 15 to 20 minutes.
Discard the marinade, and drain the shrimp on a paper towel.
Wrap each of them in a piece of bacon, and secure it by skewering with a wooden toothpick.
Preheat the broiler and position the rack in such a manner that it is at least 3 to 4 inches away from heat.
Place shrimp in a single layer on an unheated rack of the broiler pan, and turn it only twice in the entire stage of broiling. Broil till they are opaque and bacon is thoroughly cooked (should turn crisp).
In a bowl, stir together mayonnaise, lemon juice, chili garlic sauce, salt, and green onions.
Cover the sauce and serve it chilled.
This recipe serves around 12 to 16.
This is a tropical recipe served with a sweet sauce.
Starting with the tail of the shrimp, make a slit down to the inner curve. Follow this by pressing it lightly to flatten a little.
Place flour, egg whites, and coconut in three different bowls.
First dip the shrimp in flour, followed by egg whites, and lastly in the coconut.
Use an electric skillet or a deep fat fryer to fry the shrimp.
Heat the oil to 375°F and fry till they are evenly golden brown in color.
In a bowl, combine pineapple preserves and pina colada, and serve with the fried shrimp.
This is a cold appetizer and is a favorite for parties. It is recommended to make this recipe one day in advance.
Let the cream cheese rest at room temperature for 24 hours so that it turns soft.
In a bowl, mix shrimp, onion, Worcestershire sauce, cream cheese, mayonnaise, ketchup, and dill weed together with a potato masher.
Chill the dip in the refrigerator for a day before serving.
So, let loose your imagination, and do not fear to experiment the above recipes in your own unique style.


Since November 15th, 2006 I have cataloged 777 books on Librarything. 288 of which I have read since that day, that's 2.2 books per week. The rest are books that are stored on my bookshelves which I had read previously.
The 777th book cataloged is Fables Vol. 10: The Good Prince by Bill Willingham.
The Good Prince is the tenth installment of Fables, a graphic novel series about characters from various fables which had been exiled from their Homelands by an evil emperor and have found a refuge in modern day New York. Unfortunately, they cannot spend their days in peace as the enemy threatens a total war to annihilate the colony. The stories are full of adventure, humor and strangely believable story lines. In this issue the tale of Prince Ambrose, or as all Fables know him Flycatcher the Janitor, is recounted and how he has to face many perils to finally avenge his family. This book is one of the best so far and an absolute joy to read with an epic story, romance and many surprises. I can highly recommend Fables and The Good Prince to anyone interested in graphic novels and modern fairy tales.


For people who take a medication, the warnings that comes along with it are the most important protection they have from harmful side effects. New information emerges every day about drugs and its potential side effects. Under the current Food and Drug Administration regulations, getting a proper warning included with drug information is harder than it should be for makers of generic drugs, and the Food and Drug Administration is considering steps to fix that.
Since November 2013, the FDA has been considering new rules for generic drugs that would allow manufacturers to expedite the process of revising labels to add warnings or information that is critical for consumers taking these drugs. This can include updating dosage amounts, safety and efficacy information.
Under the current rules, generic drug manufacturers must follow the warning labels provided by the brand name drug. The proposed changes would allow generic drug manufacturers to change the warning labels on drugs if new information is discovered regarding dangerous side effects of the drug.
The FDA plan is called Supplemental Applications Proposing Labeling Changes for Approved Drugs and Biological Products. The FDA recently accepted public comments about this change and held a public hearing on it. The American Association for Justice supports this change to allow generic drug manufacturers to update information packaged with their products. AAJ's comments to FDA are available here.


When Is Family Day 2016?
Family Day is recognized in five Canadian provinces.
Family Day is a statutory holiday in five Canadian provinces. In 2016, it falls on Monday, Feb. 15 in Alta., Ont. and Sask. In B.C., the holiday falls on Feb. 8.
Two other provinces still get a holiday in February, it's just not called Family Day.
P.E.I. residents recognize Islander Day on the third Monday of February each year. And Manitoba has Louis Riel Day on the same Monday. So these two provinces will also have Feb. 15, 2016, off.

There is a little wanderlust in all of us. At some point in our lives, many of us dream of traveling the world to experience its beauty for ourselves. Travel has the power to open our minds to new possibilities and make us more tolerant and conscious as humans. What might be simple, normal and mundane to locals is often unique, challenging, and exciting to travelers.
For photographers, travel and photography are closely intertwined. Photography is a way to capture and communicate the sense of a place and its people. Photographs immortalize our experiences (this is especially important when we travel to places outside of our cultural comfort zones). In travel, every moment and experience is new, and the need to document and preserve them sometimes outweighs simple basic common sense.
So how do you fully immerse yourself in a moment and document it? How do you decide when it's appropriate to photograph, and when it's better to simply observe or interact without a lens? While there are no hard and fast ethical rules for travel photography, there are situational restraints and cultural, social, and economic differences between you and your subject that must be considered. Remember, just because you bought a plane ticket, you aren't entitled to photograph everything you see on your trip.
Armed with a thorough knowledge of the destination, an interest in cultural enrichment, an open mind, a pleasant attitude, some common sense, and a smile, photography abroad (just like travel itself) can be a very fulfilling experience.
Below, I've outlined some basic guidelines to help you be a culturally sensitive photographer while traveling.
Although monasteries in Leh forbid photography of any kind inside the prayer sanctums, many tourists took photos inside. Even after monks asked them to stop, tourists continued to photograph the sacred interior, pretending like they couldn't understand.
Invest time before traveling to research the traditions and photography customs of your destination. Customs vary by country, region, and religion. Understand and appreciate the diverse cultural contexts and be respectful of these differences. Be aware of the situations you will be entering into and always remember that you are a guest. Do not make yourself an intruder by acting entitled to anything; this applies to every part of travel (including photography).
Do your research to avoid disappointment over the photography restrictions that exist in the places you plan to visit.
Self-confidence, an open attitude, and a genuine smile are important wherever you travel. People generally reciprocate the kindness and respect that you demonstrate. When you are open and honest about your desire to photograph something or someone, people typically respond positively. I have found that most people love to have their picture taken. If you are uncomfortable or nervous about asking for a photograph, it's best to just leave your camera in its bag.
Respect comes in many forms. Try to learn some of the language, even if it is a few simple words. Learn what kind of behavior is accepted and what is considered to be disrespectful. Assess each situation using knowledge and intuition.
After showing genuine interest and asking lots of questions, I was invited to witness this ritual in coastal India. The lady dancing closest to the camera was believed to be possessed with the spirit of the village goddess.
Almost everyone around the world knows what a camera is and what it can do. Even if you don't know the language, use hand gestures and point to the camera to communicate that you want to photograph something or someone. Not understanding the language should never be an excuse to photograph an unwilling person. As a photographer, it's your responsibility to ask for permission before you click the shutter. I strongly suggest that you learn some simple phrases that are related to photography in the language of the country. This allows you to communicate more directly with your subject to explain why you want to take a photograph, and it shows an interest in learning the local language. The effort to communicate in the native tongue is often greatly appreciated by the locals.
Sometimes, you can even use your camera as an ice-breaker. After taking a portrait, show your subject their photo. You will find that photography instantly becomes more fun and less intimidating. If you can, bring a small Instax camera with you and give your subject a print of their image.
More than anything, respect that "No" really does mean NO. While some photographers argue that asking for permission ruins the composition (and is often not even possible), I believe that if you are taking a picture of a person, you should make every effort to ask for permission, either before or after.
This is one of my favorite portraits of all time; it is of village elder with whom we had a lengthy discussion about farming over a cup of chai. The camera did not even appear until we were well into our conversation.
I will never forget meeting this camel herder in rural Rajasthan, India. We were driving along the road, and saw him walking his herd of camels. I had never seen a baby camel before and was really curious to see one up close and personal. The moment the herder saw us, he started yelling us to go away. He told us that buses of tourists would take photos of his camels, disrupt his herd by being pushy and obtrusive, and never even bother to ask his name. I cannot tell you how miserable I felt hearing this as a photographer. We put our cameras away, chatted with him about his camels, shared some water with him, and then finally asked him if we could photograph him and his camels. If he had said no, I would have completely respected his wishes.
I admit that I have experienced a place or event entirely through my viewfinder. Strapping my camera to my body like my life depends on it, I end up missing all the nuances outside of my direct line of vision. Knowing I never fully immersed myself in a specific moment weighs heavily on my mind and I end up feeling less than happy.
Be intentional about traveling without obsessively capturing every minute of every day with your camera. If you are into blogging, plan out a photography day and a non-photography day so you can travel without the pressure of constantly taking photos. Spend time exploring your surroundings, and your body and mind will thank you for it. Even if you are on assignment, schedule some time away from your camera. Not only will it help you relax, it will also recharge your creative juices to make you more productive when you get back to work!
This was our makeshift photobooth. Friends gathered around to make the girls feel comfortable, and I snapped away. In this moment, I was truly proud to be a photographer.
This one is one of the basics of photography, no matter your genre: Know your gear. When you are traveling and asking strangers to pose for you, it is not a good time to learn how to use your gear. Save the experimentation for another time. People lose patience and often get suspicious of you and your abilities. Subjects are more likely to walk away than to waste their time with a stranger who does not know how to operate their camera.
These village girls have my heart! Before this, they had never had their photo taken, and most of them thought they looked ugly and unkept. My intention was to show them just how beautiful they were in all their innocence and simplicity.
Every photo should serve a purpose. Travel photography does not exist for the photographer to brag about all the exciting places they have been. Most people (especially locals) don't care that their everyday life, struggles, and challenges are a part of your "authentic" travel experience.
Why do you want to take the picture?
What is the narrative you hope to convey?
Is the photograph self-serving, or is it for a greater purpose?
Photography is such a powerful medium, and I believe that travel photographers have the responsibility to show an honest representation of the people, culture, and society, with respect to their dignity.
Many tribes in Northern India have a culture where the women cover their face to outsiders. It would have been so easy for me to use editing tools in Lightroom or Photoshop to lighten parts of her face for this portrait, but if I had, I would have altered an age-old tradition for my own selfish reasons. I think she is stunning just as she is!
With today's powerful editing tools, we can easily change many things about a photo. A photographer's editing usually reflects their style (something that they have probably spent years perfecting). However, extreme editing of images can be misleading, and cause people to have misconceptions about what they can expect if they want to replicate what you create. This can have very harmful effects on the environment and local communities.
When showing an honest and respectful representation of a person or culture, the amount of editing matters. Editing for aesthetics in a way that changes the narrative or story of a person is not acceptable.
Perhaps one of the most controversial situations while photographing abroad is whether or not you should give money to the people you photograph. Occasionally, an uneducated, desperate tourist gives money to take (what they believe to be) an award winning prized photograph, and the locals start to treat photography as a lucrative business opportunity in the local community. This can get quite uncomfortable and unsafe for the photographer (and for other photographers who travel the same route).
I prefer to engage people openly and share my story and my need for a picture. I find that in most cases people are happy to share their story and allow me to photograph them. Through this experience, I open myself up to cultural and emotional enrichment. If someone expects money for a photograph, then the decision becomes less about whether to pay and more about whether to even take the photo. Paying your subjects is a judgment that only you can make on a case-by-case basis. All I ask is that you are mindful of the example and expectation you set for future travelers and photographers.
Sometimes when we travel, our excitement clouds our better judgment and we do things we would never find acceptable at home. Take a moment to check yourself. Your photography should be an act of respect, not an act of exploitation. If it doesn't feel right, it probably isn't, so don't do it.
Photography is such a powerful tool. As a photographer, you are held to moral and ethical responsibilities. By taking a photo and sharing it with the world, you have the duty to preserve and communicate your subject's story and dignity. Please don't take this responsibility lightly. Like everything else in life, listen to your intuition and think from the point of view of your subject first before you click the shutter.
By following these guidelines, you will open yourself up to building meaningful relationships, learning about culture, customs, and traditions, and telling a true and honest story. I urge you to be a culturally sensitive photographer by treating your subjects with this level of curiosity and respect.

game review request
Thread: game review request
Please add game titles in this thread you want to have a review of.
Please notice that they shouldn't be too old.
Jito463
Ok, if you want suggestions, then might I suggest Culpa Innata. A recent adventure game (from Sept. 2007, iirc). Though adventure games do tend to take much longer to play through and review, so be forewarned. Personally speaking, I hadn't heard anything about this game until earlier this week, though I have been able to find a few reviews online about it.
so you'll write those reviews, bismax? What for? Are you getting paid to do so?
Don't expect me to answer that question But believe me: I'm studying chemistry, I ain't have no time to do that in the next time.
I was trying to look up comments on the game "Battlefield 3" which was just released last month. And I don't even see it listed in the Game Database!
I hope I opened a brand new subject here. Fly at it people!

Are you getting paid to do so? :3

Ive seen the Coca-Cola Game Gear before, and I knew there was a game that went with it, but Ive never taken the time to look up gameplay. Great review

Midcentury Cottage Off Midway Road Boasts Prime Location
We've pretty much found a unicorn — a North Dallas rental off of Midway Road for less than $2,000 that is close to several great schools, great grocery shopping, and great dining.
This two-bedroom, one bath home at 4239 Bonham Street has a lot to recommend it. Not only has it retained all of its Midcentury, 1953 period charm (check out all the built-ins scattered throughout the home), but it's got a great backyard with even more living space. (more…)

Tuesday Two Hundred
Midway Hollow Midcentury Bungalow Has a Pretty Price Point
It wasn't but maybe four or five years ago that you could get a three-bedroom, one bath house in Midway Hollow for around $150,000ish. And while that's not the case anymore, there are still homes to be had in the under $300,000 price range that place you in the hot neighborhood.
And for those that are unfamiliar, Midway Hollow has become hot for several reasons — you still have great tree-lined streets in a walkable, friendly neighborhood, with a robust crime watch group and an extended neighborhood patrol, three great Dallas ISD elementary schools serve the neighborhood, and it's close to so much, including plenty of grocery options, dining, and recreation.

Great Schools, Great Neighborhoods — and Great Prices for Every Budget

We all know the market is tight in Dallas. But when you're looking for a home as a family, there's another thing to factor in besides price and square footage: the schools.
Last year, Dave Perry-Miller Real Estate asked me to take a look at the neighborhoods around some schools that might be more unfamiliar to buyers who traditionally look around the Lakewood, Rosemont, Stonewall Jackson, and Withers elementary schools. The neighborhoods I showcased were in attendance zones for some of Dallas ISD's great schools — albeit schools that sometimes get less attention than their more well-known counterparts.
This week, I'm going to repeat the feat, and show you some examples of homes you and your family can plant roots in — and attend a great school to boot.
All of the schools we'll look at are rated "Excelling" in the district's School Performance Framework, and many of them offer the things parents get excited about — two-way dual language Spanish immersion, International Baccalaureate, personalized learning, and the like. (more…)

Saturday Seven Hundred
If You Want a Midway Hollow Modern — Move Fast
by Karen Eubank
Our Saturday Seven Hundred, at 3938 Lively Ln., is a Midway Hollow Modern that is a prime example of why young families are not only flocking into this hot neighborhood, they're staying.
If builders aren't flipping, they're creating spec homes like this cool contemporary built by Brad Thurman of Thurman Real Estate Partners. Thurman finished the 2,674-square-foot home in early 2015. With three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a powder bath, it's what young families want today. Of course, it helps when you have a seller with great taste and an excellent designer like Gary Owens on board. Owens not only helped with the interiors, but he's also responsible for the lovely landscape design.
Dave Perry-Miller agent Michelle McElreath listed this house for $739,000 a few days ago.
"It went under contract to the first person that saw it," McElreath said. "Every single person that has looked at it has wanted to buy it. We are still showing the house, and people are asking about back up offers. What is so perfect about the house is — it's just easy. You walk in and even before it was impeccably decorated you think, oh yeah this works. Whether you entertain four or 40, it works. It's flooded with light but still private. It's a great house in a great neighborhood."

SCHOOL+HOUSE Heads to Midway Hollow with Grenadier Homes
After the rousing success of our first SCHOOL+HOUSE event, I immediately started hearing from all kinds of Realtors, families, and schools about picking their neighborhoods.
After compiling a list of potential schools and neighborhoods, I'm pleased to announce that the next SCHOOL+HOUSE will be in Midway Hollow on Sept. 24, from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. It will be co-sponsored by Grenadier Homes and Hartman Terilli Group/Coldwell Banker.
This Midway Hollow new construction by Grenadier Homes, located at 4110 Dunhaven Road will be the site for our second SCHOOL+HOUSE event.
The three-bedroom, two-and-a-half bath, new construction home is at 4110 Dunhaven Road and features a study, a gorgeous outdoor entertaining area with a fireplace, and a master closet that is bigger than my first apartment.
What is SCHOOL+HOUSE? It's part traditional open house, and part meet-and-greet with the folks that can tell you everything you need to know about the schools that feed into Midway Hollow. In this case, three elementary schools (Walnut Hill Elementary, Withers Elementary, and Foster Elementary) and two feeder patterns (Thomas Jefferson and W.T. White) serve this gigantic neighborhood that is bordered by Midway Road, Walnut Hill Lane, Marsh Lane, and Northwest Highway. We're bringing parents, principals, and other Dallas ISD folks in to answer all your questions. And, of course, Realtors will be on hand to talk inventory and needs as well.
Why do we do this? Because some of the best knowledge about schools comes from the parents and principals who are there every day. They're informed, involved, and ready to give anyone the ins and outs of sending your child to the schools in the neighborhood.
Keep an eye out next week for a look at this gorgeous house Realtor Karen Cuskey has found for us, and in the meantime, pencil our next SCHOOL+HOUSE in on your calendar. You don't want to miss this.

Great "Undiscovered" Schools Give These Homes More Bang for Their Buck
There are many neighborhoods that are home to "hidden gems" of Dallas ISD – schools that don't get the attention of their more popular siblings, but have the same programs and successes. (Photo: courtesy Dallas ISD)
I just spent two days fielding queries about neighborhood schools from folks that just moved into my neighborhood. I'm about to tell our readers the same thing I've told them: You always hear about the same schools because they're great schools, and you may feel like you must buy a home in the attendance zones for those schools, despite the low inventory. But often, there are great schools with the same programs (who just haven't had those programs as long) sitting right under your nose. In fact, there's still some time to get into your family's next home near one of these great undiscovered or under-discussed schools before the school year starts.
So I'm thrilled that Dave Perry-Miller Real Estate asked me to write about the schools that are just as awesome, but are less well-known. Keep in mind, this is just a small sampling — there are schools all over the Dallas Independent School District that have amazing programs that are not the usual suspects. (more…)
