Sacramento --
From state to state, a Bay Area nonprofit shopped its proposal for an animal abuse registry similar to the one used for sex offenders. A decade later and still with no statewide registry, the Animal Legal Defense Fund is trying a new tactic.
The Cotati group is creating its own nationwide database of animal abuse convictions in an effort to stop abusers from exploiting an unchecked system of acquiring pets through adoption, breeders and stores.
This time, the group will ask states - many of which cited cost as the prohibitive factor in not creating such a list - to opt in to the registry by sharing public data that is hard for animal shelters, rescue groups, pet stores and the public to access on their own.
Despite the push, the "Do Not Adopt" registry is a divisive concept that has raised concerns from civil liberties groups and a powerful animal protection organization: the Humane Society.
"There is no existing mechanism to prevent someone convicted of animal abuse from walking into a shelter or going on Craigslist and getting a new animal," said Chris Green, director of legislative affairs at the Animal Legal Defense Fund, a 30-year-old organization that runs on private donations and includes a network of pro bono attorneys.
But the Humane Society of the United States argues that the proposed registries appear to be a public shaming of animal abusers, who in many cases have mental health problems. Humane Society spokeswoman Jennifer Fearing said educational efforts are more effective.
"We should be very careful to strike a balance between preventing future animal cruelty, protecting civil liberties and promoting redemption and rehabilitation," Fearing said.
Fearing points to the Humane Society's efforts with NFL quarterback Michael Vick, who pleaded guilty in 2007 for his role in a dogfighting ring. She said Vick speaking out against dogfighting can have a greater impact on preventing animal abuse than vilifying him on a registry.
In the past year, a dozen states considered varying forms of animal abuse registries, with some proposals calling for databases available to the public and others giving restricted access to those who sell or offer animals for adoptions.
In many cases, individual shelters keep their own "Do Not Adopt" list that includes incidents that did not result in convictions, and voluntary surrenders in cases of neglect or abuse. However, those lists are rarely shared with other shelters or animal organizations, making it possible to surrender an abused dog to San Francisco's Animal Care and Control to avoid criminal charges and then walk across the street to the SPCA to adopt a new pet.
"We are the agency that does investigations of animal cruelty, but even we don't have all the information," said Rebecca Katz, director of San Francisco's Animal Care and Control. "If it was a statewide thing, nonprofits and public shelters have access to it and that would be helpful."
Katz said the urgency of a registry has been felt this year in San Francisco because of an increase in animal abuse cases that she said were especially violent, including the suspected sexual abuse and beating of a 10-month-old pug mix.
"Any animal registry would help," said Sandra Bernal, an animal care attendant at the city shelter who helps nurse abused animals back to health.
Logan's Law
In many states, proposals for animal abuse registries followed headline-grabbing cases of cruelty against animals, such as Logan's Law, a Michigan bill named after a Siberian husky who had battery acid poured on his muzzle. The registry was dropped in August.
Massachusetts lawmakers are considering a bill to create an abuse registry after the arrest of a man accused of torturing and beating a year-old pit bull he then left for dead on a playground.

California legislators considered an abuse registry in 2010, although the bill struggled to gain support because it would have taxed pet food to fund the database. Four counties in New York have created registries.
The American Civil Liberties Union has opposed some of the registry proposals, saying a public database is a means of further punishing people who have already paid their debt to society.
Green of the Animal Legal Defense Fund said its registry would be searchable only by providing a name and birth date in an effort to ensure that the system focused on decreasing animal cruelty without stepping on civil liberties. Green said the group probably will have to pursue legislation to require states to report animal-abuse convictions to the database.
"It's a good idea that hasn't been successful for the wrong reasons," Green said.

When Will We Stop Shaming Ambitious Women?
For Gillibrand, nearly every move seems to be a self-serving playing of the angles. While it's not surprising to see a politician behave this way, Gillibrand seems to be an especially egregious practitioner of the finger-in-the-wind politics that so many voters can no longer abide.
He goes on to reference Gillibrand's calls for Al Franken's resignation, her denunciation of Bill Clinton, and her withdrawal of support from Governor Greg Patterson in 2010 (after the New York Times reported that he had intervened on behalf of one of his longtime aides who was involved in a domestic-abuse case), citing these as examples of her carefully calculated, ever-changing allegiances.
All politicians are opportunistic; it's practically a job requirement. But Scotti falls back on the same old, tired, lizard-brained and misogynistic argument that people used against Hillary Clinton: That ambitious women are off-putting. Not only that, he seems to say, Gillibrand is especially unappealing, because she seized political opportunities at the expense of men. The horror!
There are valid criticisms to be made about Gillibrand as a candidate, and I'm sure they will be over the course of the next three years. As Scotti's op-ed confirms though, the road to 2020 will be long, tiresome, and full of sexist garbage — not that you'd thought otherwise.

THE JOURNEY IN 01
Wizardmon was always a lonely Digimon who traveled the Digital World by himself, searching for meaning and purpose. He grew tired because of his lack of food and constant movement, and collapsed one day. While he laid there, fearing that death would come for him soon because no Digimon around him stopped to aid him, he heard a voice. A Tailmon(Gatomon) stopped and literally put water in his mouth for him, pitying him. He woke up later in the night, sitting by a fire with the Digimon. He quickly hurried to his feet, thinking that he must continue on with his journey alone. Tailmon told Wizardmon not to leave, because he wasn't fully healed yet. She also warned him that if he continued to travel alone, his heart will soon become cold. The two ended up traveling together for the rest of Wizardmon's days, always appreciating what Tailmon had done for him. He explains, "I was about to die with a heart of stone due to my loneliness. The one who freed me from that loneliness, Tailmon... Was you."
This beginning part of his friendship with Tailmon meant a lot because instead of losing himself to the darkness, he found the light in her. He decided that in order to pay her back from saving not only his physical being, but his mental self as well, he would always stay by her side. The friendship wasn't one sided however, because Wizardmon remembered that Tailmon was searching for her Digi-destined when she was unable to remember what she was searching for. The dark and the light needed each other to survive their journeys. This is the symbolism I see from their relationship, that dark and light need each other in a balanced world, you can't have one without the other.
Myotismon believed that Wizardmon was on the dark side while Tailmon was forced to forget her true purpose. However, when they all go to the human world to find the 8th Digi-Destined, Wizardmon reminds Tailmon of what she has been searching for, Hikari. When Tailmon ends up betraying Myotismon for her true destiny, Wizardmon follows her and exclaims that he never betrayed Myotismon because the only side he was ever on was Tailmon's. The two battle Myotismon on their own, and Wizardmon gets thrown into the water, causing Tailmon to believe that her beloved friend was dead.
I think that Wizardmon survived the first blow from Myotismon because of how strong his heart had grown from his friendship with Tailmon. If he didn't have a purpose or a reason to keep living, I think that his data would have been erased, and he would have gone back to his baby stage in an egg to be reborn later. However, Wizardmon had a lot left to do in order to save his true friend, so he used the strength of love and the light that Tailmon had to keep pushing through the pain, and find her again. I won't only give the credit to his friendship though, because Wizardmon is a strong Digimon. He was found by Takeru and Jou and brought back to Hikari and Tailmon to bring them the Crest of Light so that he could finally fulfill his purpose of living.
Wizardmon arrives just in time, and throws Hikari and Tailmon their crest. Wizardmon then was the first to harm Myotismon in the battle, even without his wand and very hurt from the first mini-fight. Myotismon was shocked to see that Wizardmon was still alive, and he responds with "I'm the type who makes sure to pay back all of my debts," angering Myotismon even more. Wizardmon gets thrown against the side of a building, as Myotismon goes to attack Hikari and Tailmon with his deadly Grisly Wing. However, Wizardmon somehow manages to jump in front of the attack, saving his friend from death. In return, Wizardmon dies, but quickly tells Tailmon not to be sad because if he hadn't met her, he would have lived a life without any meaning. On his last breath, he tells Tailmon that he is very glad he had the chance to meet her, as he fades away.
Although I felt heartbroken when Wizardmon sacrificed his life for Tailmon and the others, I realized that he truly felt like that was his purpose in life. Tailmon gave Wizardmon a second chance to do something productive with himself, and his life. Before he met her, he was wandering for a purpose, and felt like he was going to die finding it. However, he was saved and given the chance to have a friend that would stay by his side until death do them part. Instead of dying a pitiful lonely death, he was able to die a hero in the tale of the Digi-Destineds, and more importantly, die to save his one and only true friend.

THE GHOST OF THE PAST
Three years later on the anniversary of Wizardmon's death, his data began to resurface as a "ghost," causing disturbances at the Fuji TV Station. When the Digi-Destineds came to the station, Tailmon realized that the ghost on all of the screens in the city was actually her deceased friend, Wizardmon. He came to give the gang a warning that the darkness that they are about to fight is way worse than the current enemy. Wizardmon appeared almost as a guardian angel here, coming down from the heavens to warn Tailmon of what is to come. I thought it was really great that the producers decided to bring Wizardmon back in this scene because if anyone would have been watching over them, it would have been him for sure. Tailmon reaches out to Wizardmon, but their hands unfortunately could not actually touch. Embarrassed and hurt, Wizardmon pulls away and apologizes as he leaves. Because their hands could not touch, the realization of his death became apparent again, hurting both of them. Part of me really wished that they could have m embraced because of how much they meant to each other, but I was happy that they had the chance to communicate once again.
MY THOUGHTS ON FRONTIER
A Wizardmon appears in Frontier, evolving from a Candlemon in an angry fight between Takuya and the Candlemon clan. After the battle, the Wizardmon vanished back down to it's beginner stage, as a Candlemon again. That part isn't what I found strange, but it was cool to see another Wizardmon in action. What I really found to be fascinating is when the group traveled to the Autumn Leaf Fair, and in many of the scenes during this episode, if you look in the background at the Digimon enjoying the fair, you will see a Tailmon and a Wizardmon walking around together, along with other Digimon from seasons 1 and 2. I read some articles on whether or not Frontier happened before the Adventure Season, and many people believe that it came first, and they were the original Digi-Destineds that were talked about in the first season. If that is the case, then perhaps this is the time period when Tailmon saves Wizardmon and the two become friends. We know from Digimon Adventure that the original Digimon waited a LONG time for their Digi-Destineds to appear in their world, and time is very different there, so it is very plausible that the Wizardmon and Tailmon we see in these photos at the Autumn Leaf Fair could be showing the parallels between Frontier and Digimon Adventure. Regardless, I am happy that the two were seen walking around together because it made me happy to see a friendship between a Wizardmon and a Tailmon once again!
FRONTIER GALLERY
YOU'RE A WIZARD, WIZARDMON
In Wizardmon's official profile, it states that Wizardmon has mastered sorcery of fire and earth, but is hoping to become an advanced Wizard through it's journey in the Digimon World. Below is some real life information on Earth Fire Wizards/Mages and Magic:
Earth Magic in it's most basic form is associated with stability in people and things, heightening or lessening a desire for change. Stone, soil, metal, bone and gems are the primary physical embodiments of Earth, though the element is also often wrongly thought to be associated with the life produced from the soil, namely plants. It is said that "Earth changes for no one," causing a necessary patience and willpower to use the element of Earth, deeming it one of the most difficult to have mastered.
Fire Magic overall mainly tends to deal with the emotional and aggressive side of things, such as love, hatred, fear, willpower, and domination. Fire is not all chaos and destruction, as many seem to believe, for the great powers of love also stem forth from this element. Passion, the inner fire of an individual, burns within the heart of the soul, and when enraged to the point of a wildfire, is all but impossible to stop. Whether this be in the name of good or evil, however, is "in the eye of the beholder".
I think that we can see from the anime that Wizardmon definitely portrays these types of characteristics. He is trying to create stability and change in the Digimon World by teaming up with Tailmon and the humans to defeat the evil beings that are destroying that stability. We can also see that he has the willpower and patience in life as he journeyed alone, starving on the way, in order to find himself and his powers. Fire also makes a lot of sense because on his solo journey, he had to deal with a lot of emotions. Gaining a friendship with Tailmon allowed his inner fire to be good instead of evil, because she saved his heart from turning cold and into stone. Instead, he was able to use these powers for good and beneficial to the Digimon and Human World in general.

It was during a latest Disney bloggers chat (if you don't know about that, its on twitter at 8pm GMT on a Thursday so come join in) and talk turned to Princess and the frog and it seemed like everyone in the chat had seen it loads and I held my hand up and admitted I'd seen it once and once only, I have this evening however changed that and watched it again but it still didn't draw me in enough to think 'ooh I must watch that way more often'. Then later that evening I was watching videos on youtube and came across Jack White while searching for Christmas DLP vlogs and he had done a video of a similar nature, honestly though Jack (I doubt you'll ever see this but in case, how the heck can you have gone all that time without seeing The Lion King? :0 really is dreadful behaviour).
Now on with my confessions, I figured 5 would be enough as I don't want to let you all down and have you all declare I'm a disgrace to the Disney community and throw me out, I hope I still have my place after this post anyway, please?
1. Now I have not come across another single Disney fan that I've ever heard say this or agree with me when I have said it, I don't like Mary Poppins AT ALL. I've tried so many times to watch and enjoy this film over the years and I just can't, I'm sorry ladies and gents but its just one of those Disney films that has never, will never or even consider having a place in my Disney heart or DVD collection.
2. Despite a number of visits to Walt Disney World now, I've still not tried a dole whip. I truly meant to on my last trip back in September, if you haven't read about it then why not? you can do so here. This is mainly for 2 reasons, firstly I somehow just seem to forget every-single-time and secondly, despite loving pineapple which I'm sure I'd appreciate in it, i hate floats so am really put off by that. Maybe next time I'll tick this one off the 'must have done to be a true Disney fanatic' list.
3. If you had read my post on my most recent WDW trip then you might be able to guess what I'm about to confess to....I've never seen the Magic Kingdom welcome show, this one truly disgusts even me, I'm ashamed, terribly ashamed of this and if I don't fix it within the next year then I may decide myself that I need to be kicked out the Disney community. I'm sorry everyone, I know its just not acceptable behaviour at all.
4. Not to hate on it or sound like some kind of Disney snob and please Disneyland Paris fans don't hate me but to me DLP just doesn't scream Disney to me. It doesn't come close to being as magical and perfect as WDW and DLR, in my opinion anyway. Don't get me wrong, the more I go the more I enjoy it and my experiences are definitely getting better, I did buy an annual pass after all so I can't dislike it that much, but as I say it will never come close to being the place in my heart that WDW and DLR are. Its great that it's so close by and easily to pop over to for a little fix when what I consider to be the main parks are out of my reach.
5. I guess I should really add another general one here or this could turn out to be more of my Disney parks confessions, so I guess confession 5 will lead me to admitting I don't own all the Classic DVDs, I know so many people seem to have collected them all over the years but I honestly don't see the point for myself because I know I just wouldn't watch them all. I do have a good collection of Disney DVDs but tend to stick to buying the ones I know for definite I will watch over and over again.
Well there you have it, 5 of my shameful Disney confessions, are they really bad? we can let them go right? Do you have any big Disney confessions? come on, admit it, you must have at least one or two.
I have to admit I don't like Mary Poppins either it just doesn't do it for me unfortunately, to the point that it doesn't even seem like Disney.
Will defo have to give this a go! Such a shame they have got rid of the Welcome Show now, did you manage to see it in the end?

Estée Lauder is seemingly attempting to crush the competition and pull an environmentally friendly bait-and-switch once again via Origins. With the launch of the "Hello, Calm" mask, available exclusively at Sephora.com today, Origins' attempt to capitalize on the buzz of cannabis culture-based beauty ideals is as similarly aggressive as trying to capitalize on all-natural, organic "new age" beauty concepts 21 years prior.
According to Glossy, Hello, Calm represents Origins first foray into the cannabis beauty arena. Meanwhile, the Body Shop's hemp face products and kitschy green "dope on a rope" soap in the shape of a pot leaf have been available for years.
Origins claims that cannabis sativa seed oil is filled with nourishing benefits to help condition the skin via the seed oil's rich fatty acids. They also claim it calms and soothes skin while protecting its barrier from irritants. Ingredient linoleic acid is included for its barrier boosting properties because a strong skin barrier is important to help protect the skin from stressors, such as irritation and dehydration.Omega-3 and Omega-6 essential fatty acids are also included as anti-irritants.
Estée Lauder's entry into the CBD market just further demonstrates the mainstreaming of cannabis and we can expect more companies to jump into the fray as Canada's commercial system goes online on October 17th, more states pass various legalization measures this November, and more nations around the world improve their cannabis laws. The beauty giant's involvement also further demonstrates the versatility of the cannabis plant, and thus the expansive nature of the industry.
There are a multitude of uses for cannabis, providing so many avenues to work in the industry, and each cannabis product opens up more ancillary businesses that are intertwined with the market. Each business then adds to the political and cultural battle to finally end cannabis prohibition across the U.S. and throughout the world, legalizing more freedom, and creating jobs and revenue at the same time.
Learn about the latest about the CBD and cannabis industry at the upcoming International Cannabis Business Conference this September 27th-28th in beautiful Portland, Oregon. Don't miss the opportunity to network with top investors and entrepreneurs from around the globe, get your tickets today.

5 Belgian designers to see at the Design Week in Milan
Belgium Culture Design
The world's biggest design fair is the Salone del Mobile, which takes place every year in Milan (this year from April 14th 'till April 19th) and attracts about 400.000 visitors, anxious to see what's hot and happening in the world of design. Designers and manufacturing companies traditionally present their newest pieces in Milan, countries and galeries take up stands to show the world how much design talent they have to offer and there are a giant number of events to go to. It goes without saying that our talented Belgian designers also need to be there, like these 5:
1) BIG-GAME
The BIG-GAME design studio was created in 2004 in Lausanne (Switzerland) by a Belgian (Elric Petit), a Frenchman (Augustin Scott de Martinville) and a Swiss (Grégoire Jeanmonod), who met while they were all studying at the Ecole Cantonale d'Art Lausanne. The threesome have a predilection for straightforward functional objects to which they add aesthetic value and preferably also a touch of humour and optimism. They are the design team behind the Bold Chair (by Moustache) that was added to the collection of the MoMA in 2013, and the triplex Moose by Vlaemsch(). During the Design Week in Milan their newest piece for the Japanese brand Karimoku New Standard will be presented, namely a sofa in their successful Castor line. The sofa will be displayed at Karimoku's exhibition stand in an apartment in the Brera Design District, alongside new work by designer Christian Haas and a photo series by the Japanese photographer Norio Kidera.

2) Maarten De Ceulaer
Maarten De Ceulaer's work has already attracted the attention of the Belgian and international design world: as early as 2009 The New York Times described him as a young designer to watch out for, in 2012 he was selected by Fendi for the Design Performance programme at Design Miami, and in Flanders in 2013 he received the prestigious Henry van de Velde Award for Young Talent. His Writing desk of suitcases will be on display for the Design Week at NilufarDepout in Milan, a new location of the Nilufar gallery on the Via Lancetti 34. De Ceulaer made himself known with his Pile of suitcases, his final project before graduating from the Eindhoven Design Academy in 2009. It drew the attention of Nina Yashar of Nilufar and she asked him to design a series of suitcase furniture, in a limited edition: every piece is handmade by artisans, using the finest leather. Other pieces by Maarten De Ceulaer at the Design Week are Woof and Warp, a room divider by Moroso (Rho Fiera Milan, Hall 16, Stand A29 B22) and the Mutation Chair and Stool by Cappellini Next (Rho Fiera Milan, Hall 20, Stand E01 F06).

3) Sofie Lachaert & Luc d'Hanis
Sofie Lachaert en Luc d'Hanis' designs are highly individual, making them difficult to pigeon-hole. They create what can best be described as 'applied art': fine items such as crockery, but also larger pieces such as chairs or rugs. In Milan their work isn't present on the actual design fair, but at the cultural organization Il Lazzaretto, as a part of the exhibition A stomaco vuoto (On an empty stomach) with 'objects, words and projects on the theme of fasting'. The expo was created for the occasion of the Design week by DWA, the interior decorating studio of Alberto Artseani and Frederik De Wachter. To anyone who can't make it to Milan this we, we can recommend the exceptional guesthouse that Lachaert and d'Hanis run in Tielrode, which has received favourable reviews from The Independent. This also doubles up as a gallery, providing a showcase for emerging new talent in the applied arts. (Photo © Sofie Lachaert & Luc d'Hanis)
4) Ben Storms
For the exhibition A Matter of Perception, Products & Materials is designers, architects and furniture brands were invited to show the public how important the choice of materials is during the design process and how materials determine the result. One of these designers is the Belgian Ben Storms, who will show the table In Vein and the coffee table In Hale (as seen on the photo above) and the posh Palazzo Litta will hopefully attract the attention of international galleries. That shouldn't be difficult, because Stroms' pieces are real eye catchers, first of all because of the materials they're made of: for the table he used marble mirror polished stainless steel and leather, the coffee table is actually a giant block of marble of 200 kilos, placed on an air-filled copper cushion. These exclusive and organic designs are almost sculptures, made by hand – Ben Storms is an experienced stonecutter and woodworker. His parents run a natural stone and recycled materials company – so that's where he learned about natural materials – and he chose to study art history and furniture design: al these different aspects and interests are present in Ben Storms' work.

5) Confronting the Masters
When you visit this exhibition in the beautiful Sala Napoleonica of the Accademia di Brera you will be able to admire the work of no less than 10 Belgian designers at once. And not just any Belgian designers: the best, at least according to the jury of the annual Belgian Designer of the Year award. This award, created by Knack / Le Vif Weekend and Biënnale Interieur (and supported by the Design Museum Gent, Le Grand-Hornu and Bozar), will be celebrating its tenth anniversary this year: the perfect occasion for an exhibition in Milan, organised by Belgium is Design, featuring the work of the 10 designers that were presented with the award from 2006 up to now: Alain Berteau, Sylvain Willenz, Nathalie Dewez, Alain Gilles, stefan schöning, Bram Boo, Nedda El-Asmar, Jean-François d'Or, Marina Bautier (the cover photo of this article features her Lap Desk) and Muller Van Severen – these two won the award in 2015, one of their designs (included in the exhibition) is shown in the photo. The work of these awardwinners will also be showcased alongside the work of some less established young talented designers at the SaloneSatellite, to profit from maximum visibility.

Some buyers of ''handyman specials'' and other homes in need of repair will soon be able to apply for mortgages that will enable them to get funds both for purchase and rehab work in the same loan.
The program, called community home improvement loans, was announced last week at the Mortgage Bankers Association of America convention in Chicago by the Federal National Mortgage Association, also known as Fannie Mae, and GE Capital Mortgage Insurance Companies.
Up to now, two separate loans have typically been issued for purchase and repair work. The new program, which for the first time provides a secondary market for purchase-and-rehab loans, should make them more widely available.
The loans, to be made available around the country early next year, will be offered for ''modest-income'' buyers, which Fannie Mae defines as those making a maximum of 115 percent of an area`s median income.
The loan will allow financing-or refinancing-of a home and repairs amounting to up to 30 percent of the after-repair appraised value of the home. Eligibility is restricted to single-family units, including condominiums, that serve as the borrower`s principal residence.
The mortgage will ''enable modest-income home buyers to make the home improvements necessary for home purchase by obtaining a single loan,'' said Martin D. Levine, Fannie Mae`s vice president of low- and moderate-income housing.
''Fannie Mae and GE also expect that this mortgage will prove useful in helping to revitalize neighborhoods,'' added Levine.
He also pointed out that the new mortgage can help financial institutions meet their obligations under the Community Reinvestment Act, the federal law that requires financial institutions to do a certain amount of lending in the neighborhoods in which they are located.
Although such purchase-and-rehab loans have been available previously on a spot basis, particulary through institutions with strong community lending programs, there has been no secondary market for them. Under the new program, Fannie Mae, the nation`s major secondary market institution, will buy the inclusive loans.
''I think this will encourage lenders to make these loans,'' said Calvin Bradford, head of Community Reinvestment Associates, a Des Plaines-based consulting firm that does work for community groups.
Lenders can make such loans now, he pointed out, but a special program and a place to sell them will be ''useful,'' he said. ''It`s not magical, but a lot of lenders might decide it`s OK to do this,'' he added.
The new home improvement loans will follow the underwriting guidelines of Fannie Mae/GE Capital`s Community Home Buyers` program, tooled for low- and moderate-income home buyers to allow them to devote higher-than-usual shares of their income-up to 33 percent-to housing expenses.
That program also accepts utility payments and rent payments as for income and credit verification, and offers a home-buyers` education course.
Financing will be available for up to 95 percent of the ''as completed value'' of the house, and there are no restrictions on the types of repair allowed.
Bradford said that the few purchase-rehab loans that have been issued in the past have typically required a 20 percent down payment. The new program, with 5 percent down payments possible, makes possible a considerable liberalizing of such loans, he said.
Among the lenders that have epxressed interest in participating is the First Nationwide Bank office in Chicago, according to Fannie Mae.
Fannie Mae, the nation`s largest investor in home mortgages, has dedicated more than $4 billion in specialized home financing for about 80,000 low- and moderate-income families nationwide since 1987, when it began its program targeted to that group.
GE Capital Mortgage Insurance, one of the nation`s biggest mortgage insurers, is a subsidiary of GE Capital, a diversified financial services corporation.


Arens Rohrleitungsbau is a flexible and reliable partner to companies in industry, and a trustworthy employer of more than a hundred staff. Arens Rohrleitungsbau has remained a family company. Classic values such as quality awareness, adhesion to deadlines, honesty and reliability make us stand out – along with fair, transparent quotations and a high degree of flexibility.
Arens Rohrleitungsbau was founded in 1969 by Aloys Arens and was involved with external assembly up to 1972. To enable us to create our own products, the current production areas were set up in 1971. With the development of competences and certification in welding technology, we have made a name for ourselves in industrial furnace construction. The number of employees has grown constantly. Pipework construction has crystallised as a core competence – and has remained so up to today, together with plant engineering.
After the very early death of Aloys Arens in 1988, his brother Clemens Arens took over the company. His offspring, Meike Arens-Heynen and Markus Arens, entered the company in 1992. Today they are members of the board along with Lothar Harders.


What can you use to study damage to the immune system?
The flow cytometer (sy-TAH-mee-ter; cyto: cell, meter: measure) is a unique instrument used in both health care and research laboratories. Cytometry refers to the measurement of the physical and chemical characteristics of cells. Flow cytometry is the process in which measurements are made while cells in a liquid suspension are forced to flow one at a time through a measuring device.
Each of the types of immune system cells has a unique combination of size, shape, DNA content, and proteins. Using these measurements, scientists can use the flow cytometer to determine the amount of each type of cell in a blood or tissue sample.
Flow cytometers are also found in many hospitals for clinical uses. They are used to measure blood cell counts in patients infected with HIV and in patients with leukemia, cancer of the white blood cells. In the case of HIV-infected patients, the flow cytometer is used to count CD4+ T-cells, the cells that are killed by HIV. The response of leukemia patients to chemotherapy is monitored by counting the different types of leukocytes.
For example, a flow cytometer can be used to count the number and type of leukocytes (white blood cells) in a person's blood. In a healthy person, granulocytes make up 50-60% of the total leukocytes and lymphocytes are about 30-40%. A person whose white blood cell counts differ from these numbers may be experiencing a problem with their immune system.
Doctors and scientists used to count cells with a microscope which is a very slow process. However, the invention of the flow cytometer allowed them to count thousands of cells in minutes and obtain much more detailed information.
But what exactly does the flow cytometer do?
Measures the physical and chemical characteristics of cells. It can measure a cell's diameter, volume, surface area, and granularity.
Identifies and quantifies different types of cells by their surface proteins.
Determines a cell's internal structure, including its DNA content, enzymes, and proteins.

After yesterday's juicy confession, this might be a little boring for some of you. For some reason I'm always curious to know what other people carry around in their bags (I love watching "what's in my bag" videos on YouTube – call it my guilty pleasure). So today I thought I would let you guys in on what I carry around in my huge Diaper Bag.
Wipes – to clean everything from her nose to her toes.
Water bottle – to quench thirst?
Change of clothes – you never know when you will be in a mall, ordering a turkey breast sub and the baby will throw up over EVERYTHING. Yes it can happen. And no I did NOT have a change of clothes when it did.
Sweater – I'm always cold, so I figure Aria is too.
Bib – do I really have to say? It's to keep her clothes clean.
Diaper trash bag – to dispose of the particularly smelly diapers.
If I could pack her whole room and bring it with me, I probably would… sigh. I guess I should also mention the few things I have in my bag for myself. Taking up a little space in the bag are my keys, some cash, my wallet, some mints and of course my cell phone. There you have it, now you know what's in that big bag I carry around!
Do you have anything in your diaper bag that I missed? Let me know so I can add it to my bag as well (as if I need anymore stuff)!

You will know that your documents have been received when you no longer see your XXX-UCR folder in the dropbox.
Awards granted from the University Research Fund will be established in your department series of accounts. Awards granted from the Tuck Fund and the Anonymous Fund will be established in a Dean of the Faculty series of accounts. In both cases, the department manager will be automatically granted access to the award within the Information Warehouse for all awards granted to faculty in the department.If the department manager wishes to delegate access to another staff member, the appropriate form(s) should be completed and forwarded to the Office of the Dean of the Faculty, 9 Nassau Hall.
Award notices are normally sent by December 1st and May 1st. Included with the notice will be the Grant Accounting form. This form is specific to your award so please take care to retain this document as it will be needed when you submit your final reports to the EC at the conclusion of the grant period. The Grant Accounting form includes the start and end dates of your award, the detailed budget, the project grant number, specific restrictions on the award and the due date for the reports.
Future requests for funding will not be considered by the EC until all reports are received from previously completed grants. Your department chair and department manager are copied on the award notice and grant accounting form.
Expenses incurred on behalf of the award should be processed in the same manner similar expenditures are processed within your department. Please contact your department manager for assistance. Students employed under the award must be paid using the Time Collection System.
1. Requests for grants should be submitted on application forms available on the Dean of the Faculty website. The application should be completed in detail and must be submitted to the chair of your department for his/her endorsement. Requests without a chair's endorsement will not be considered by the EC. The chair should submit all applications at one time along with the summary memo requested by the EC.
2. All applications must include the following sections and should be limited to 4 – 6 pages.
a. Title and description of the project
b. Results from previous grants
c. The following items must be addressed in your proposal:
i. Present state of the project
ii. Probable duration of the project in its current phase
iii. How you are utilizing your discretionary research fund for the current year
iv. The amount of your discretionary research fund available to support the proposal
d. Endorsement by the department chair
e. Other sources of support (see #3 below)
f. Proposed budget
3. Your application must include details related to other sources of support to which you have applied or have already received a commitment of support from.
Applicants are expected to fully explore other sources of support, both inside and outside the University and including your department, before requesting support from the UCHRSS, particularly in connection with projects requiring sizable expenditures. This should include work-study funds for research assistance. The EC is favorably disposed to match departmental support and grants to complement other support will be made whenever possible.
Specifically, the EC is interested to know if your application has been submitted to the following sources and in some cases may refer your application to these sources for consideration prior to review by the EC or in lieu of review by the EC.
a. 250th Anniversary Fund for Innovation in Undergraduate Education (Dean of the College)
b. Barr Ferree Foundation Publication Fund (Art & Archaeology)
c. Global Collaborative Networks Fund (Council on International Teaching and Research)
d. PIIRS Research Communities (Princeton Institute for International and Regional Studies)
e. Stanley J. Seeger Fellowships for Research in Greece (Program in Hellenic Studies)
4. In general, lower priority will be assigned to repeated requests for support of what is essentially the same phase of the same research project. However, the EC recognizes the complex needs of long-term projects. The scope of such projects should be outlined in the initial request for support so that the EC can gauge the extent of support it may be able to provide over time. By the same token, requests for additional support of a multi-phased project must include a detailed statement that outlines what was accomplished during the earlier grant phases and how the new proposal differs from previous phases.
5. The UCRHSS will not consider:
a. Requests for archaeological projects.
b. A new application when the applicant has not submitted the reports on previously completed grants.
c. An application from a member who will not continue to serve in an eligible full-time rank in the following academic year. Eligible ranks are listed in the 'Who is Eligible' section of these guidelines.
d. More than one research project per applicant per meeting.
e. Any research project that is part of a doctoral dissertation prior to the completion of the degree.
f. An application without an endorsement statement from the chair.
g. Requests for research assistance that result in a commercial product such as a textbook.
h. Requests for travel assistance for anyone other than the applicant except in the case of a finalizing meeting with a collaborator which may be permitted for one trip on a case-by-case basis.
i. Requests for assistance to fund Festschrifts.
j. Requests to purchase equipment of any kind.
k. Requests for assistance of less than $150.
l. Requests for travel to attend conferences, learned society meetings or for residence in or near the applicant's home.
Please use the following guidelines for preparing your application budget. Where applicable, please also follow all related Finance and Treasury policies and procedures.
1. CASH ADVANCES — Cash advances are only permitted for travel and cost of living budget items and may not exceed the total amount awarded for these categories. If you wish to draw on your grant prior to your trip please complete a cash advance voucher, including a justification for the cash advance, and submit it to the Secretary of the Committee, 9 Nassau Hall. Cash advances are subject to University policy which requires you to account for the advance within 120 days of incurring the expense. If the advance is not accounted for within 120 days, the amount is subject to being recorded as personal income and may be deducted from your paycheck. Please contact your department manager for assistance.
2. COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH — In cases of collaborative research with colleagues of other institutions, the EC requests detailed clarification of the use of the funds. A definition of the respective responsibilities and support available for the applicant must be indicated in the grant proposal. Such projects will be evaluated carefully to see that resources are available to the collaborator from their institution, to support portions of the project. In general, lower priority will be assigned to costs associated with faculty research collaboration.
3. COST OF LIVING DIFFERENTIAL (COL) — The cost of living differential is not the equivalent of a per diem and is intended to support a portion of the applicant's daily living expenses such as lodging and meals. In many cases it will not cover those expenses in full. Separate requests for lodging, meals or other daily living expenses will not be considered.
a. For periods of two weeks or less the maximum COL that may be requested is $100 per day.
b. For periods of more than two weeks to less than a full month the maximum COL that may be requested is $2,800 divided by 30 x the number of travel days rounded up to the next $100, not to exceed $2,800.
c. A maximum of $2,800 may be requested per full month of travel.
If the actual travel is for a period less than the original budget request, an adjustment must be made to the maximum COL support charged to the grant per the above guidelines.
4. INDEXING — Editorial and related services (such as proofreading) generally are supported only if the work is undertaken by student research assistants. Indexing services contracted outside of the University must adhere to Finance and Treasury policies and procedures for onboarding domestic and foreign suppliers and/or engaging with independent contractors. Please note that professional services cannot be reimbursed after-the-fact. Priority will be given to the use of undergraduate student research assistants.
5. RESEARCH ASSISTANTS — A strong effort should be made to employ Princeton students as research assistants. If Princeton students cannot be employed, all other research assistants will be subject to the benefit rate which will be charged against the total grant awarded by UCRHSS. The grant will be charged the applicable benefits rate in addition to the hourly amount, which you will have to accommodate within the funding awarded to you by UCRHSS. You must also explore the availability of work-study funds before submitting your application. The EC stresses the need for a very detailed explanation of the research assistant's duties. Please distinguish the research assistant's duties as mechanical, perfunctory, scholarly, etc. as opposed to the primary work of the author. The EC looks favorably on original archival research conducted directly by the applicant. Applications that include undergraduate research assistants should be directed to the Anonymous Fund.
Graduate and undergraduate research assistants are paid at the rates set by the Office of Student Employment. Please contact this office for guidance on hourly rates for your specific project.
6. RESEARCH MATERIALS — Materials purchased with funds granted by UCRHSS revert ultimately to the University. The applicant must refer all materials to the Associate Librarian for Reference and Collection Development to determine whether the University wishes ultimate possession. Requests for funds to purchase equipment of any kind are not permitted and will not be considered.
7. SUBVENTION — The EC will consider support for subvention of the initial publication of the product of primary research. However, UCRHSS can seldom cover the total cost of publication. Applications must include a copy of the publisher's request for the subvention along with a detailed budget. Applications without the publisher's budget information will not be considered. Translation of materials previously published by the applicant will not be supported.
Many subvention requests to UCRHSS also fit the guidelines for the Barr Ferree Foundation Publication Fund administered by the Department of Art & Archaeology. Please look first to this fund for subvention assistance, if applicable. In many cases, the EC will refer eligible applications to the Barr Ferree Fund first, before considering the application under UCRHSS.Instructions for applying to the Barr Ferree Fund can be found on the Department of Art & Archaeology website.
8. TRAVEL — Where travel is essential for research, UCRHSS will consider a request for reimbursement of expenses for:
a. The cost of round trip air transportation at the lowest applicable rate and subject to the University Travel policy. Business class airfares are not permitted under any grant however the applicant may charge the difference between the economy fare and the business fare to discretionary funds. Documentation of the fare comparison must be obtained at the time of purchase and provided for reimbursement from the grant. Please keep in mind that discretionary resources are primarily made available to support research and scholarly activities and resources that are utilized to pay for business class airfares must be identified as the highest priority use for those funds.
b. Transportation to and from airports should be at a reasonable cost level and must meet the University Travel Policy guidelines for the type of transportation employed.
Support may be requested for other forms of research related travel but is not provided for conferences, learned society meetings or for residence in or near the applicant's home. For faculty members on leave of absence, transportation will be reimbursed from the leave location; but is not for travel to/from the Princeton area or the applicant's home. Requests for assistance for more than one major research trip in a single year will be given low priority.
9. TRANSLATION — Support is provided for translating primary research materials and for proofreading manuscripts prepared by a non-native speaker for first-time publication; such support is generally through the use of student research assistants, preferably undergraduate students whenever possible.
Requests for support of full translation services for first-time publication, whether the material is prepared in English but will be published in other languages; or is prepared in other languages but will be published in English, will be carefully reviewed. Given the potential expenses associated with such projects, especially those involving monographs, UCRHSS generally expects such costs to be borne by the publisher. When funds are awarded for this purpose, they will be treated as a publication subvention.
Support is not provided for secondary publication in other languages of material originally published in English nor for secondary publication in English of material originally published in other languages when the applicant has received support from UCRHSS for the first publication.
10. UNALLOWABLE EXPENSES
a. Any expense that is part of a doctoral dissertation prior to the completion of the degree.
b. Research assistance that results in a commercial product such as a textbook.
c. Travel assistance for anyone other than the applicant except in the case of a finalizing meeting with a collaborator which may be permitted for one trip on a case-by-case basis.
d. Any expense that is in support of Festchrifts.
e. Equipment of any kind
Redistribution of the Budget
Effective with the Spring 2014 award cycle:
With the exception of awards from the Tuck Fund and the Anonymous Fund, budgets may be redistributed among line items without prior approval and at the discretion of the awardee to support the project as proposed. Departments are responsible for ensuring that source fund restrictions are met. Awards from the Tuck Fund and the Anonymous Fund may only be used for the budget categories as awarded; budgets may not be redistributed under these two restricted sources.
This additional flexibility allows the awardee to adjust the project expenses as needed however it does not mean that the funds may be used to support other projects or expenses that are beyond the scope of the proposal for which the grant was awarded. In all cases, the total expenses may not exceed the total budget awarded. Funds not expended within 180 days of the end date of the award will automatically revert back to the Committee.
In case of doubt on redistribution, please contact the Office of the Dean of the Faculty.
Should you wish an extension of the grant period beyond the end date specified on the grant accounting form, please make this request in writing, and direct it to the Secretary of the Committee before the grant is due to terminate. Your request should outline the reasons for the extension and the anticipated end date required to complete the project.
The UCRHSS requires that you submit the following reports within one month of the end date of your grant. Future requests for funding will not be considered by the EC until all reports are received from previously completed grants. Your department manager is likely the best resource for assistance with completing the report and accounting form. To complete the reporting requirements, the following items should be submitted via the DOF dropbox.
A. Completed Grant Accounting form
B. A brief written summary of the use and product of the grant
C. If the research results in the publication of a book, journal, CD, DVD or other work of art, the EC requests a copy forwarded to the Secretary of the Committee, 9 Nassau Hall
Instructions for department managers to submit documents to the Dean of the Faculty:
Create a sub-folder using the naming convention: LastName FirstName and save all documents separately within that folder. Common document names are: Final Accounting Form or Written Report.
All forms must be saved in image format (JPG, TIFF), supporting documents in PDF format.
All financial activity including the clearing of deficits, if necessary, must be completed no later than one month after the end date of the grant. Departments are responsible for reconciling with the Office of Finance & Treasury any deficits that appear.
Unless you have requested an extension and it has been approved by the Office of the Dean of the Faculty, any unexpended funds remaining at the end of the grant period will automatically revert to UCRHSS after 180 days. Grants may be rendered inactive as early as one month after the end date.
