Ruth Bonner, Who Helped Open Smithsonian African-American Museum, Dies At 100
The National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, D.C., was over a hundred years in the making. And when it finally opened last year, the honor of marking the occasion went to Ruth Bonner. She died last week at the age of 100. NPR's Andrew Limbong has more.
ANDREW LIMBONG, BYLINE: It was a Saturday when the museum finally opened. Onstage, politicians spoke. Famous people shared inspiring quotes. Patti LaBelle performed.
PATTI LEBELLE: (Singing) I was born by the river.
LIMBONG: At the very end of the ceremony, President Obama introduced the Bonners.
BARRACK OBAMA: We have with us a family that reflects the arc of our progress.
LIMBONG: Up came Ruth Bonner. She was 99 years old. She and her great-granddaughter stood on stage, flanked by the president and first lady and other family members. And then she rang a bell...
(SOUNDBITE OF BELL RINGING)
LIMBONG: ...One that came from a black Baptist church founded in 1776 in spite of laws that said black people couldn't congregate or preach. And it was especially symbolic because Ruth Bonner's father, Elijah, was born into slavery and then escaped. Here's how President Obama described his life.
OBAMA: He lived through reconstruction, and he lived through Jim Crow. But he went on to farm and graduate from medical school.
LIMBONG: After that, he served his community, both black and white patients. He died while Ruth was young, but she still had some stories about him. Here's Ruth's son, Michael Bonner.
MICHAEL BONNER: She would sometimes bust into his examination rooms when she shouldn't have. And he would chew her out. She was not a shrinking violet in any way, form or fashion.
LIMBONG: The day she rang the bell, Ruth Bonner met all sorts of people - members of Congress, President George W. Bush, Robert De Niro, Angela Bassett. When Michael Bonner took her back to her assisted living facility, she received a standing ovation. And she enjoyed the attention.
BONNER: When I saw her back in the assisted living facility, you know, she sent me on my way (laughter). She was excited, and everyone there was excited. And that persisted for quite a while.
LIMBONG: In a statement, Lonnie Bunch, the founder and director of the museum, said Ruth Bonner will be remembered for representing generations of African-Americans with honor and dignity. Andrew Limbong, NPR News.

Publications / Blog / Opening "Windows of Opportunity" in Education
Opening "Windows of Opportunity" in Education
By Thad Nodine, Senior Fellow, Education Insights Center
(Cross-posted on the Californiana Blog, a project of the Center for California Studies)
A new cohort of California Education Policy Fellows met recently at Asilomar for three days of conversations about challenges facing education. The 20 Fellows are professionals in California whose positions collectively span K-12 schools and postsecondary education; state government and educational practice; and research, business, and nonprofit organizations.
Kent McGuire, program director of education at The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, set the stage for the weekend by sharing one of the most cogent analyses I've heard about the national K-12 education policy landscape. He described four theories around which advocacy groups coalesce, each of which is rooted in perceptions of the current status of K-12 education and directed toward a particular set of solutions.
McGuire called this framework "a competition of ideas over education policy"—that is, a way to consider and discuss different approaches to education. He described the four groupings as fluid and not mutually exclusive. I can't claim to have captured every nuance, but the thinking is as follows:
1. The education system isn't all that bad, but it's underfunded and it does a poor job of distributing resources. Our performance results don't compare well internationally because of the challenges facing our schools, particularly those outside of education, including poverty, health, and safety. Some state funding formulas are based on student need, but these tools are blunt at best and most haven't changed much over the past generation.
Potential solutions: Increase funding and distribute resources better to address student learning needs, particularly equity issues. A new majority of voters that is more diverse might favor shifting resources toward these priorities.
2. The system has enough money, but we don't hold it accountable. Many adults trained in education are not trained in making change. Administrators don't have information and data tools at their disposal. They don't know which teachers are most effective, nor do they have the ability to make the changes that are needed. Our schools need to focus on student proficiency in core subjects.
Potential solutions: Use standardized tests to identify student needs and school deficiencies. Take over failing schools. Employ data dashboards to identify challenges and focus energy. Use value-added teacher assessments. Let ineffective teachers go and bring in leaders from outside who can make change.
3. The system has the wrong goals for learning and hasn't taken advantage of what we know about how students learn. The issue is not about money or accountability, but rather our standards have been too low, with an insufficient focus on equity. A compliance mentality does not foster innovation. The school day is a legacy of the industrial age, with seat time, not mastery of content, as the key goal. We do a poor job of making learning relevant and we do not integrate career skills with academic instruction.
Potential solutions: Adopt rigorous standards aligned with better assessments that address multiple forms of knowledge. Use personalized learning tools. Increase professional development and responsibility for teachers and administrators. Improve school climate through trust and collaboration within and across systems. Develop mentoring relationships and opportunities for high school students to prepare for college and careers in new ways, such as through work-based learning and dual enrollment.
4. The system is broken and can't be fixed on its own. The needs of adults in schools are crowding out those of children. The least prepared teachers are in the most challenging schools. Parents are stuck in their neighborhood schools without redress. Local district boards are politicized and make irrational decisions; the districts and schools are bureaucratic and incapable of substantial change.
Potential solutions: Increase competition and parent choice through public and private charters and other schooling options. Provide tuition tax credits for students who attend private schools.
Fellows discussed with McGuire ways to engage across these types of groupings, the roles of philanthropy in each one, the extent to which any of them address teaching and learning, and the importance of creating a narrative in building coalitions for change.
Fellows also heard from two other experts in education policy change at the gathering: Michael Kirst, president of the California State Board of Education (SBE), and Martha Kanter, executive director of the College Promise Campaign and former U.S. Under Secretary of Education. I don't have the space here to do justice to their insights, and so I'll touch on only a few points.
Kirst drew from his two stints on the SBE (he was also president during Jerry Brown's first terms as governor) to discuss the realities of education reform at the state level, saying that "windows of opportunity" for making major changes in state education policy open very rarely, for short periods of time, and only when all of these conditions are met:
1. A big idea and a big vision for change are mature and ready to go.
2. Education groups and political groups can be unified around the idea and vision.
3. State revenues are increasing, to support implementation and other costs.
Kirst said that he's been fortunate to head the SBE when these conditions have been met, and that California has, in turn, adopted major reforms (for example, new state standards, state assessments, and local control funding and accountability). He advised Fellows to flesh out their big ideas, so that when the policy window opens, they are ready to go. He also advised them to keep at it. Their best years, he said, are ahead. (He observed that he hit his stride in his 70s!)
Martha Kanter described the interplay between federal and state education policy, including the unintended consequences of well-meaning legislation—such as the extent to which Congress has not adjusted the poverty rate to meet inflation, and making federal Pell grant aid for the 45% of undergraduates from low-income families cover fewer and fewer college costs since the 1960s. Another example was federal legislation that allows low-performing for-profit schools to account for up to 90% of their revenues from federal student loans and Pell grants. She also shared her favorite assessment system for measuring community college excellence, used for awarding the Aspen Prize: outcomes that measure completion, learning, equity, and labor market performance.
Over the next eight months, Fellows will continue to amass insights from education policy luminaries, and each other, that they can put into action when the next "window of opportunity" opens.
The California EPFP program seeks to develop a new generation of skilled, informed education leaders in the state. The program is administered by the Education Insights Center and the Center for California Studies at Sacramento State.

I have had such a busy week! I am full of lots of easy to duplicate crafts!!!!!
I hope that you find them useful in your classroom!
I am so excited to be linking up with Tara for another Monday Made It. I find myself unable to sleep waiting to see what number poster I will be for it. Obsessed much?! lol I have been super busy, and hope you make it to the end of all of my madness today!
Well my first project was this bad boy!
I got this gumball machine for free. It is supposed to light up, but I don't have the cord. I bet I can find one and it would be awesome, but see the following pictures... I messed up!
I spray painted it all yellow with plastic spray paint. This paint sucked on this because it ran everywhere and did not look good. I tried to use acetone to remove the yellow, oh my word, it just made it worse. Now the clear parts were all foggy!
The yellow paint splattered and made a mess, so I wrapped it in purple duct tape and then added some ribbon to make it look fun!
This will be my reward system for those that make it to the top of my clip chart. I have gumballs and skittles inside now. Each color is a different reward. I am finishing up the reward coupons to go with it. They will be in my store at the end of the week!
Two Friends in First had a great idea, and I wanted to put my own twist on it.
Then, I put a chevron border around it and put in a green filler inside. I put lollipops into the chevron straws.
I decided I needed a bow for the front. I cut my pieces, and the two smaller had to have the ends cut into triangles.
Then I connected the long piece like this.
Then I pushed them together.
I used a twisty tie from bread to put it together.
That was my plain bow before the tails were on.
I hot glued on the purple to hide the twisty tie.
Here are the bottom pieces, I pushed them together and put glue to hold them.
I whipped up these awesome happy birthday tags to put on as well.
Remember last week that I had a lamp redo?
Here is the other lamp shade.
I painted it, and as you can see, you can faintly see the ladybug through it.
The paint is Martha Stewart silver. You can get a small tester set for $6 and it has painted so much this summer!
Nothin an extra coat of paint won't fix.
I put that over the washi tape and then added transparent purple ribbon on top and e6000 on top. The transparent ribbon was a buck at Michaels.
I think it looks great - IMHO!
Here are my three projects for the week that were crafty!
I got the sponges at Michaels for $2 for 8 of them.
Add 1/4 cup of rubbing alcohol.
Let it soak up, turning the sponge to get all the liquid into the sponge. I had a bit left over in the bottom and left it there. The rubbing alcohol will keep the sponges from freezing.
Seal your bag or use two ziploc bags for each.
This isn't really a made it , rather than clean it!
I threw them into the washer with a huge beach towel and a packet of oxy clean.
They came out FANTASTICALLY clean!!!!!
I didn't take an after, but trust me, all I had to do was dry them, and it was clean as can be!!!
I got the frames from Michaels. They were on clearance. The large was 1.99, and the others were .99 plus our 15% off!
I gave away 5 of these sweet guys on INstagram this week to use for your own.
24TH separate commenter (24 days until school starts) will get a set for free!!
My sweet husband built my new mailbox system for me! It is from really good stuff.
If you google 50$ off $200, you will feel like you are getting $50 in free stuff!!!
I am also using these avery label, chevron binder clips to put as name tags for my mailboxes.
I am going to attach the avery label template if I get requests. Just let me know.
I believe I used the 31 MM clips.
I LOVE this idea. We can't have candles in our room, but lamps are ok. So I got this lamp! Instead of using the $2.50 scentsy squares, I am using Gain Fireworks! OMG it smells like laundry in my classroom. It is wonderful!!!
I also made this to take first day of school pictures. Look at my sweet little model! I love her!
Last, but not least, here was a first day picture of my room as I got into it.
Here is a pretty recent shot of that same corner. It has changed since this picture, but I will do a full reveal the week before school starts!!!
Please be sure to leave me some love!
I already have two Monday Made Its ready for next week, but I just couldn't put any more on this post because I didn't think you guys would keep reading!!
I am done with my book clubs on Friday, and I can't wait to spend the last twenty days of summer break with my sweet little boy!!!
Click on the picture below to go to my TPT store to purchase for just a BUCK, but only for the next 48 hours!
Please leave a comment, and be a follower!
Girl....you have been busy! I love everything...:) Those frames you painted are adorable....where did you get them? Your room is looking awesome and I love your color scheme...:) Can't wait to see it all finished!
Hi Vicky! I have been super busy! I got them at michaels! It was SO easy to make!!!! I can't wait to see your finished kindergarten room!
WOW!! You have been so busy. I wish I could say which project is my favorite, but I love them all!
Awww thank you! I appreciate you stopping by!
Wow, I love the binder clip idea for the mailboxes! My class mailboxes look just like that and I always have to peel off their name labels at the end of the year. I def. want to do the clips!
Mine looked like that for the longest time too. So happy to have these binder clips now!
Holy smokes you made a lot of stuff!!! WOW you are amazing. I love the gumball machine and pretty much everything else.
Oh my goodness! How do you have time to be Martha Stewart on the side?! You are my hero! I think I'm a little craftier just from reading this. Love it all!!!!
Haha - My son naps for 3 hours each day. I have everything ready to start while he is eating lunch and I dive right in! :) It relaxes me!
You have definitely been busy. My post was pretty long today too!
Fantastic!!! So many great ideas. I especially love the clips for your mailboxes. I am so done with peeling off names at the end of the year and putting them back on at the beginning.
I would love to add your quotes to my wall! So much fun! Thanks for the great ideas!
Alli, did you get the quotes for the wall??? Just checking!
You are one crafty girl!
Loving all the stuff you made!
Go check out my blog for details!!
Hey there! Thank you so much for stopping by and for the award!
Wow!! You've been super busy!!! I love the gumball machine and the frames!
I love all of your ideas! I hope to do some of these in my room! I would love the template for the binder clip numbers! I am actually doing a chevron theme this year and those would work perfectly!
Hi Jaime, I just put the template up in my store if you were interested!
When you get your room all ready to go, how about coming over to my classroom?! :) Love it all!
How in the world did you find the time to make all of these made-its? I am blown away. Thank you for sharing about the homemade ice packs. I could definitely use some of those in my classroom to cut back on our nurse visits!
You are on a roll! Looks great. Thanks for sharing.
Wow! That's a ton of great ideas! Love the ice pack sponges!
Thank you! I can't wait to use those sponges!
Such extremely amazing ideas! LOVE!
I can't wait to make those ice packs and for you to share how you made the large melonheadz kids for your walls! I'm your newest follower!
Becky, I just blew them up on a poster printer and laminated! Super easy!
Great minds indeed....too funny! It all looks fabulous!!!!
OMG!!!!! You have got so much done. I just the frames and will head to our local craft shop for frames tomorrow.
Such great ideas...thank you for sharing! I, too, would love to have the template for the binder clips. I am planning on putting those on my kinders' mailboxes, but of course need to make them look pretty, instead of plain. Thanks!
the template is up on my store (freebie) -- hope it helps!
You have been busy. I love the frames. Well, actually, I love it all. Thanks for sharing. Now I need to get busy to catch up, and I don't have 20 something days.
Love your ideas! Are you offering the binder number clip template. I could definitely use that!

'The Post': is Steven Spielberg playing it safe?
Posted on February 14, 2018 by Reel Rambler	Leave a comment

A mark of a truly great filmmaker is her ability to challenge both herself and the climate of work around her, to continuously explore new things and to incorporate them into her craft to yield a better result (or even a bad one). And while many filmmakers did that successfully this year — think Jordan Peele (Get Out), Greta Gerwig (Lady Bird), Luca Guadagnino (Call Me By Your Name), and Dee Rees (Mudbound) — other directors sang songs to the tunes of their old hits. Case in point: Steven Spielberg's The Post.
The famed director's repertoire is undoubtedly one of the best in history, with generation-defining classics such as Jurassic Park, Jaws, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, and Schindler's List to his name. And while his cinema continues to be praised into 2018, a trend in his last few movies raises some flags that are hard to ignore in The Post.
Set in the late 60s during the Nixon administration, the Best Picture nominee tells the notorious story of how Katherine Graham (Meryl Streep), the heiress of The Washington Post, and her team uncovered a troubling secret about the Vietnam War spanning four administrations of U.S. presidents. Fighting personal convictions and the pressure of the government, Graham and her chief editor Ben Bradlee (Tom Hanks) must make the difficult decision that will undoubtedly change history.
More Oscar Films: 'Call Me By Your Name': on the unforgiving pain of first love
When you have names like Streep and Hanks, two of Hollywood's most iconic and celebrated actors, attached to a project, the product is promised to be a sweeping showcase of performance. And The Post does not disappoint in that regard. The roles seem to be written for the two who unsurprisingly deliver great performances. In fact, the entire ensemble, which includes Bob Odenkirk, Tracy Letts, Sarah Paulson, Michael Stuhlbarg, Bradley Whitford, and Bruce Greenwood, manages to not be cast in the two veterans' shadow — a feat in and of itself.
That being said, there's more to story the film is based on than meets the eye. On the surface, it's a rebellion against the state and a fight for freedom of press and for freedom of speech, but underneath that is a story of a woman running a major publication in the 60s and 70s, holding the power to set a precedent that would forever change journalism — and that's a side to the Vietnam leak that many (including myself) did not know.
Via Roger Ebert
Watching how everything came into place and how the whole ordeal transpired is fascinating in its own rite, but a story most of us knew in some way or another. And while history is the side Spielberg's films seem to stand on, The Post misses, in this age and time, a major scoop in this story: the opportunity to create a powerful, feminist story arc for Graham. This is alluded to in little moments in the film, which implies the story was indeed there, but never fully addressed or explored. Streep's Graham turns bold quite abruptly, with no logical sequence of character development.
In 2016, Spotlight explored both The Boston Globe's story about abuse in the church and the toll that revelation carried on the people who covered the story and the country as a whole. In a time when media agencies around the world are attacked for their choices, and freedom of speech is jeopardised more than ever, films like The Post become essential viewing, but it is also the role of journalism (a word I would venture to use to categorise this film) to expose all the different sides of the story there are. While a polished work of a cinema veteran (what else are you expecting with such a top-tier cast and crew?), the film remains somewhat isolated in its inability to transcend its own story.
More Oscar Films: 'The Disaster Artist': James Franco pays tribute to the worst film ever made
Spielberg has given us cinematic gems, and there's no denying the impact of his legacy of film and filmmakers today. But a huge part of why his films were so groundbreaking was because of how many risks he took as a filmmaker. And his filmography of late has lacked that. From The Post to Bridge of Spies and even to Lincoln (though to a lesser extent), Spielberg seems to recycle the same recipe: big-budget high production, historical drama, widely-recognised and loved veterans of the screen, the best possible cast and crew, and so on. And the result is always an impeccably made work, one that checks all the boxes but is not the transformative experience his old films used to be.
The Post is a thrilling watch from start to end, boasting a strong ensemble performance, great craftsmanship, and a well-written landmark moment in American journalism. But in viewing it against the filmography of its helmer (and what we all know he's capable of) as well as the lack of proper character development, it becomes one of the director's lesser efforts, but a very solid one nonetheless.
It remains for time to tell the trajectory of Spielberg's cinema. While I would personally love to see him make a small independent, character-driven film, his next feature, Ready Player One, will be released in March and already seems to be a break from his recent work, and I, for one, will be holding on to that inkling of hope.

On banning Rana Eid's 'Panoptic': who will tell our stories?


If I had a pound for every article I've read about the death of media relations, I'd probably be able to go for a few beers and maybe even grab a curry afterwards (admittedly, that doesn't sound all too expansive but I am in London after all).
Once I'd polished off my last local pale ale, I'd likely reflect that as an industry, we're all too keen to write off traditional 'earned' media coverage as the past. Yet most will quietly admit that the vast majority of briefs agencies see coming through the door are still seeking ambitious agencies to deliver - you got it - earned media coverage. Why? A number of reasons of course but one I firmly believe is that – despite journalist and publication numbers falling – people still rely on traditional press outlets like newspapers (likely more in their digital forms) and broadcast for their intake of news and insights.
Am I nay-saying on integrated comms? Of course not. In fact, quite the opposite. As an industry we need to think of how we influence our target audiences through a variety of channels - from paid to earned, shared and owned (the PESO model for those not acquainted).
This ensures our messages reach as many possible influencers and decision-makers as possible. Not everyone can afford to read a newspaper or watch BBC Breakfast every morning, the same as not all of us will find the time to browse LinkedIn on our lunch-breaks.
So the more channels our campaigns can generate traction on, the more likely they'll be to achieve their desired outcomes. Will this spell the end for media relations? Robert Bownes, I say not yet.
For decades, the art of pitching stories to journalists to secure positive media coverage has been at the core of what most PR agencies do and although it may be 'fake news' to say this 'media relations' avenue is dead, it's certainly dying quickly.

nervous about going into labor and pushing a baby out of your vag?
You've never given birth before (or maybe you have) so you're not quite sure what to expect — but you definitely don't want the same birth horror story your cousin shared.

Are doula's only helpful for vaginal deliveries?
I'm wondering if I might feel a need to do either (or both) during my labor and if that happens... Is it easy? Strange? What?
I'm a FTM and ignorant to the ways of birthing so help me understand: 1. What the hell is a doula? 2. What exactly is a birth plan?
If I paid out of pocket, what can I expect to pay for a birthing center or home birth?

Norwood "Pony" Poindexter (* 8. Februar 1926 in New Orleans, Louisiana; † 14. April 1988 in Oakland, Kalifornien) war ein amerikanischer Jazzmusiker (Sopransaxophon, Altsaxophon und Tenorsaxophon, Klarinette und Gesang).

Leben und Wirken
Poindexter begann als Siebenjähriger mit dem Klarinettenspiel und spielte mit zwölf Jahren in einer Rhythm-and-Blues-Band. Er wechselte schließlich zum Alt-, dann zum Sopransaxophon um und begann seine Karriere 1940 bei Sidney Desvigne, spielte dann in San Francisco mit Jerome Richardson und begleitete 1947/48 und 1950 Billy Eckstine. Daneben besuchte er 1948/49 das Candell Conservatory of Music in Oakland. 1950 spielte er im Quartett von Vernon Alley, 1951/52 bei Lionel Hampton und 1952 bei Stan Kenton. Danach hatte Poindexter eigene Gruppen und spielte außerdem mit Dexter Gordon, Charlie Parker, Nat King Cole, T-Bone Walker und Jimmy Witherspoon an der Westküste. Ab 1959 arbeitete er mit den Montgomery-Brüdern und Jon Hendricks zusammen und gehörte von 1961 bis 1963 dem Begleitensemble von Lambert, Hendricks & Ross an, mit denen er 1960 auf dem Newport Jazz Festival auftrat.

1963 entstand mit seinem Quartett ein erstes Album Pony's Express unter eigenem Namen sowie ein Live-Album Live at the Basin Street East. 1964 zog Poindexter nach Europa, arbeitete in Paris unter anderem mit Kenny Clarke und spielte von Barcelona, später von Ibiza aus mit unzähligen Musikern auf Festivals und Tourneen. Beim 10. Deutschen Jazzfestival 1967 wurde das Album Annie Ross & Pony Poindexter aufgenommen. 1969 nahm er The Happy Life of Pony auf. Er lebte in den 1970er Jahren in Deutschland. 1977 kehrte er nach San Francisco zurück. 1985 erschien seine Autobiographie Pony Express.

Poindexter leistete entscheidende Impulse zur Durchsetzung des Sopransaxophons im Modern Jazz. Sein Saxophonstil ist stark vom Blues geprägt und verarbeitet Einflüsse von Charlie Parker, aber auch von Johnny Hodges und Jimmy Dorsey. Als Sänger ist er von Eddie Jefferson geprägt.

A study of a large group of adults who underwent bariatric surgery finds that the risk for self-harm emergencies increased after the surgery, according to a study published online by JAMA Surgery.
The authors write that the published literature provides differing reasons for the association between bariatric surgery and the subsequent risk of self-harm, including changes in alcohol metabolism after surgery; surgery might lead to a substitution of substance misuse for food; increased stress and anxiety in postoperative patients; and the effect of surgery on the levels of neurohormones, possible mediators of the likelihood of depression and suicidal behaviors. "Findings from this study advocate a better understanding of these and other theories through future research of potential mechanisms of self-harm in patients undergoing bariatric surgery."
"These adverse events undermine the overall benefits of bariatric surgery. The study findings could be useful for bariatric surgeons and emergency physicians in postoperative follow-up. Additional clinical implications include active postoperative screening for self-harm risk among patients who have undergone bariatric surgery and are presenting for follow up. Patient and surgery factors could help identify vulnerable patients. Overall, these findings imply that more work is needed to understand why self-harm behaviors increase in the postoperative period and how these risks might be reduced."
"The study has 2 important findings. First, the preoperative incidence of self-harm emergencies in patients undergoing bariatric surgery is twice the population average and increases by an additional 50 percent in the postoperative period. The identification of patients with an increased risk of such adverse outcomes remains an elusive goal," write Amir A. Ghaferi, M.D., M.S., and Carol Lindsay-Westphal, Ph.D., of the Ann Arbor Veterans Administration Healthcare System, Ann Arbor, Mich.
"Second, most self-harm emergencies occur in the second and third postoperative years. There is currently no minimum standard for psychological follow-up. Although stringent criteria are in place for insurance and programmatic approval to undergo surgery, the postoperative follow-up rates in general have been poor."
"The study by Bhatti and colleagues underscores the unique vulnerability of patients undergoing bariatric surgery and forces us to look closely at why suicide rates are more than 4 times higher in these patients than the general population. Bariatric surgery is more than just an operation--it is time we recognize and treat it is as such."
Editor's Note: Dr. Ghaferi reported receiving salary support from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan as the director of the Michigan Bariatric Surgery Collaborative. No other disclosures were reported.

I'll agree with you about Williams' covers, the one with the eyes being much more intriguing, but I like the Tor version of Makers better. I'm wary of covers with palm trees.
I like the original HC version of the Williams book as well. The eyes really catch your attention.
As for the two versions of Cory Doctorow's Makers...I like them both! The Tor version catches your eye, but the UK version does as well. Either one of those would get me to pick up the book and explore further.

Beach Slang Releases "Tommy in the 80s" Tribute to Tommy Keene
by American Songwriter November 9, 2019, 9:14 pm
Beach Slang debuted its gritty new song Tommy In The 80s, strutting a classic crunching hard rock sound infused with sweet melodicism and energetic horns.
Beach Slang recently announced their most accomplished new album to date The Deadbeat Bang of Heartbreak City due out January 10 on Bridge Nine Records, featuring special guest bassist: Tommy Stinson of The Replacements. The band kicked off a national fall tour with Goo Goo Dolls yesterday, in Kalamazoo.
The song is dedicated to late power-pop legend Tommy Keene.
James Alex said, "We were on tour, somewhere outside of St. Louis. I was sitting on a scratchy hotel chair trying to write something. Nothing came. Charlie walked over, real still, and told me Tommy Keene died. I went all-the-way numb. You grow tired of the wrong people dying. I took the "Saturday night" bit from "Nothing Can Change You". I took the title from "Warren In The 60s". I took the horn part from "Deep Six Saturday" and the thump from "Turning On Blue".
"Look, if you don't dig this thing, no sweat—just listen to Tommy's records. They're the blueprint for all of it. Tommy, I hope I did real right by you, man. You're the real-life goods and an absurdly sweet heart. And this thing is for you."
Deadbeat Bang of Heartbreak City was initially announced via Kerrang! alongside biting lead single "Bam Rang Rang", oozing glam and swagger over sleazy riffs and loud guitars. While James Alex has always infused his anthemic power pop with the earnestness of a gutter poet, Deadbeat Bang sneaks up on you.
Like all Beach Slang albums, the eleven tracks are all written and arranged by James. It's big, loud, and brash, immediately setting the tone for a record more inspired by the stadium classic rock of Cheap Trick than early Replacements. The record was mixed by heavy-hitter Brad Wood, celebrated for his work with the Smashing Pumpkins and Liz Phair.
Drawing comparisons to Jawbreaker and The Replacements, but never approaching easy facsimile, Beach Slang paid tribute to the past by lighting a new torch with their critically-acclaimed previous records.
Dubbed as a 'thank you' to Minneapolis, the MPLS covers EP was released earlier this year and was produced by Robby Takac of the Goo Goo Dolls, who they're thrilled to be sharing the stage with this fall. Don't miss them on tour in a city near you!

WHU – Otto Beisheim School of Management is offering a new Executive Education Program titled "Mergers and Acquisitions in Practice Program" in June 2017. During the three-day program executives are equipped with the necessary tools and methods to manage the main challenges related to mergers and acquisitions.
A high share of mergers and acquisitions transactions (M&As) fails because opportunities and risks are not analyzed and managed rigorously. Additionally, prior studies indicate that a large number of mergers and acquisitions fail to generate the expected return for acquirer shareholders, and that some of them even lead to substantial value destruction. Nevertheless, M&As are an important growth strategy for firms. Since opportunities and risks are closely connected, M&As need to be strategically planned and carefully executed. Mastering the mergers and acquisitions process from the idea origination through post-merger integration is therefore key to achieving the projected synergy value.
The program philosophy is rooted in the why? how? do! learning approach. "The focus is first on understanding why it is important to implement M&As, and in which contexts M&As are a value-creating response to a firm's growth challenges. The next step is to understand how to effectively and efficiently implement M&As," explains Professor Dr. Nihat Aktas, who holds the Chair of Mergers and Acquisitions at WHU and is the program's director.
Discussions and exchanges of ideas with WHU faculty, top-notch industry experts and a select group of peers allow participants to gain experience in handling the M&A process from the initial idea to post-merger integration. Course participants will be put in a real business situation with the help of case studies and computer applications. Designed to improve the participants' M&A performance in particular, the Mergers and Acquisitions in Practice Program will teach them strategies and tools that are ready to use in order to help participants to better implement and assess their M&A strategy.
The program is specifically designed for young talents and experienced managers who aim at working in positions with a greater focus on strategy or corporate development in their firms. Further, the program is conceptualized for senior executives whose firms are potential acquirers or targets for acquisition by another firm.


If things do go wrong it is our fault. As adults in our role as both parent and dog owner we must accept full responsibility. It is not the child's or the dogs fault it is ours; we did not do a good enough job at explaining to children and to dogs how they should interact.
Your responsibility begins the moment you choose a dog. Within any breed there are dogs that are excellent with children, although you will find more in some breeds than others. It is always important to do your research and visit lots of reputable breeders before getting any puppy, but probably more important when children are involved. When visiting puppies, you want to see puppies that are confident, friendly, well socialised and not fearful. You also want to meet the mum of the pups and any other related dogs that the breeder owns to make sure they are friendly and confident with children and don't show any signs of fearfulness.
If you have a dog before you have a child you don't have much choice, but if you already have a child and are thinking about adding a dog to your family. I always recommend waiting until the child is at least three. Puppies (especially those of big breeds) are clumsy, grow big quickly and are full of energy. It is normal for them to investigate and experiment with everything. A child of two or three is selfish and going through a similar period of development they don't understand that dogs have their own characteristics, needs and rights. Big dogs and small children are a lot of work and are likely to develop a strained relationship; unless the dog is extremely calm and careful, something we cannot expect of a puppy. This does not mean the combination of a child under the age of three and a big dog doesn't work, as I do know of countless families in that situation who are very happy.
Safety rules for babies born into homes with a dog.
Don't put the baby on the floor and wait for the dog to come along and have a sniff. Besides not bringing anything particularly positive to the relationship, this procedure is highly unsafe. You never know what might startle the dog or the baby and develop into an accident.
Don't give the dog more (or less) attention after the arrival of the baby. Try to keep the relationship the same. Dad might have to spend more time with the dog since mum will probably be very busy taking care of the baby. Newborn babies need their mums much more than their dads. Dad's time comes later.
Never allow the dog to be with the baby by itself, no matter how good your dog is around children.
Be particularly careful when the baby begins to crawl. The dog may want to play with the baby in the same way it would with other dogs and this would be an accident just waiting to happen. Don't overreact, just supervise and calmly control the situation.
Children and dogs often have problems when saying hello. Children like to hug to show affection, dogs don't understand hugs, to them a hug is more like something that inhibits another's movement which is a sexual or dominant behaviour. Dog's often snarl when a child hugs them, the dog is just saying "please stop that". Often a dog might innocently open their mouths in this situation, who is then to blame if a dog's sharp canine innocently touch's the delicate face of a child. Accidents happen because of misunderstandings between species, it is important that we give clear instructions to our children to prevent these misunderstandings.
You must not approach the dog when it is sleeping, chewing its bone or eating; the dog must always be left alone in these situations.
You must never approach a dog you don't know.
When you say, "Hi" to a dog, you must not hug it. Squat down, make some chewing sounds and give it a treat with calm, gentle movements.
If a dog runs after you, do not run away. Stop right away, turn your back to the dog and cover your face with your hands.
You must never hit a dog, throw things at a dog or grab a dog by its tail or ears etc.
If a dog grabs one of your toys, don't try to get it back. Tell mum or dad and they'll do it for you.
Of course, if your child is aged around three, they will ask "why?" to everything you say. Give them an answer, don't just say, "Because I say so." Ensure they understand. We don't want life to be just a set of rules it is also important that children and dogs have fun supervised time together. As your child gets older and spends more time with your dog developing a friendship, they learn about each other's behaviours and the likelihood of misunderstandings and disagreements occurring decreases.
Jump on the child's bed.
Grab the child with its teeth, not even in play.
As your child and dog start to understand each other you can relax some of these rules. Conflict between dogs and children usually happen because adults don't react appropriately at the first sign of any misunderstanding. It is important that we always pay attention to dog and children interactions and if minor incidents occur, we analyse the situation and prevent it happening again. Usually with time minor incidents develop in to more serious issues. With serious incidents, it is important that you react immediately and I would recommend you contact the club or speak to your vet who can recommend someone to help you.
The best way to deal with problems is to stop them happening in the first place. We can't stop all problems, but we can make every effort to avoid the worst of them by providing children and dogs clear rules and establishing good habits. This is by far the most successful approach.
Motivation and reinforcement are the two most powerful tools you have. It should be fun for your child and your dog to do things together. You will have to show them what they can do together and obviously, there isn't a great deal that very young children and dogs can do together. One thing that young children can do is pet a dog. Stroking a dog is a great way to build up a relationship. Young children can also give the dog treats. Teach your child to offer a treat calmly by placing it flat in the palm of their hand and teach your dog to take the treat gently. As children get older around 7 – 8 you can show them how to get the dog to sit, stand, drop, come and all sorts of other tricks, to earn a treat. These fun games of communication can by enjoyable for both your child and your dog.
Motivating and reinforcing desirable behaviour helps you to avoid problems, but conflicts can happen and you must deal with them straight away. It is your responsibility to stop any behaviour that is not safe. Dogs and children do and need to express themselves by playing loudly, making a mess etc. but a dog snarling at a child or a child hitting a dog is not ok and you must intervene immediately, by saying in an assertive and confident way "stop that right away". It is okay to startle your dog or child in this situation as you want them to remember them and if you act straight away with the right level of assertion you probably won't have to do it again. It is your self-confidence and the surprise factor that stops the unwanted behaviour of your dog or child. Both Child and dog must understand that you mean what you say and you do not accept that type of behaviour. You always only reprimand the behaviour never the dog or child. Don't panic or exaggerate your behaviour this will only make the situation worse. Make it very clear to both dog and child that is was their behaviour that earnt the reprimand not them; otherwise they will just become frustrated and your child will blame the dog for the reprimand and your dog will associate your child with your unpleasant behaviour.
Because of this it is very important that after your perfectly timed reprimand (the reprimand occurred immediately the unwanted behaviour occurred), you start a fun and rewarding activity for your child and dog. We want them to understand our message; not traumatize them. You as the adult provide clear boundaries and let them know what is acceptable behaviour and what is not.
Our goal is to educate them, to teach them to live happily together and to respect other living creatures. An important lesson to learn is sometimes you need to compromise, you can't always get what you want. Even though occasionally we might need to reprimand, our most successful strategy is that of motivating and reinforcing good behaviour and creating good habits. If in any doubt or you are reprimanding continuously please contact the club or talk to your vet who can refer you to an expert.
Children and dogs see the world a lot different to us adults. We are sometimes too busy to appreciate things but the most important thing we need to remember is to always let children and animals know how much we love them. We need to teach them respect for others including humans and animals. Being a parent and an animal owner is probably the most serious job you will ever have because you are totally responsible for another individual. It is hard work, but very rewarding when you see the smile on a child's face or the happiness in your dog's eyes.

Flavobacterium branchiophilum ist eine Art von Bakterien. Sie ist ein Krankheitserreger bei Forellen.

Merkmale

Erscheinungsbild
Die Kolonien in einen Anacker-Ordal Agar sind gelb gefärbt und rund, konvex mit einem klar definierten Rand. Die Produktion von gelben Pigmenten ist für die Gattung typisch. Die Zellen sind stäbchenförmig mit abgerundeten Enden, die Länge liegt zwischen 5 und 8 µm und die Breite bei 0,5 µm. Auch filamentöse Formen treten auf, die Länge liegt hier zwischen 15 und 40 µm. In älteren Kulturen treten Sphäroplasten auf, was für viele Arten der Gattung Flavobacterium typisch ist. Das Bakterium ist unbeweglich, es besitzt keine Flagellen und es findet auch keine gleitende Bewegung statt (gliding motility). Die gleitende Bewegung kann man bei vielen anderen Arten der Gattung beobachten. In den ersten Beschreibungen der Gattung wurde Flavobacterium branchiophilum noch als einziges Bakterium der Gattung beschrieben, welches sich nicht gleitend fortbewegt. Im Laufe der Zeit wurden allerdings noch viele weitere Arten beschrieben, die ebenfalls nicht in der Lage sind, sich mit Hilfe einer gleitenden Bewegung zu bewegen, wie z. B. F. antarcticum, F. degerlachei und F. frigidarium

Wachstum und Stoffwechsel
Eine Reduktion von Nitrat zu Nitrit findet nicht statt. Wachstum findet bei Temperaturen zwischen 5 und 30 °C statt, bestes Wachstum erfolgt bei 18 bis 25 °C. Es wird ein Natriumchlorid-Gehalt von 0 bis 0,2 % toleriert. Wie für die Gattung typisch fällt der Indol-Test negativ aus und der Katalase-Test verläuft positiv.
Casein, Gelatine und Stärke werden durch Hydrolyse abgebaut, eine Äskulinspaltung wird hingegen nicht ausgeführt. Auch Tests auf den Abbau von Chitin und der Urease-Test fallen negativ aus. Polysorbate und Tyrosin werden hingegen genutzt. Granula aus Poly-β-Hydroxybuttersäure werden nicht gebildet.

Chemotaxonomische Merkmale
Die Art Flavobacterium branchiophilum ist Gram-negativ. Der GC-Gehalt in der DNA liegt bei 29 bis 31 %, nach anderen Untersuchungen bei 33 – 34 %.

Systematik
Flavobacterium branchiophilum zählt zu der Familie der Flavobacteriaceae, welche wiederum zu der Klasse Bacteroidetes gestellt wird.

Erstbeschrieben wurde die Art im Jahr 1989 von H. Wakabayashi und zuerst noch als Flavobacterium branchiophila benannt, die Art wurde im folgenden Jahr 1990 aufgrund der Regeln der Nomenklatur von Bakterien, der International Code of Nomenclature of Bacteria, in Flavobacterium branchiophilum umbenannt.

Etymologie
Der Gattungsname Flavobacterium beruht auf dem lateinischen Wort "Bacterium" (Bakterie) und auf dem ebenfalls lateinischen Wort "flavus", welches Gelb bedeutet. Letzteres bezieht sich auf die Farben der Kolonien, welche bei vielen Arten von Hellgelb bis zu stark ausgeprägten Gelb reichen. Der Artname F. branchiophylum ist zusammengesetzt aus dem griechischen Wort "branchion" (Kieme) und dem lateinischen Wort "philum" (Liebe, Freund) und bezieht sich auf die krankheitserregende Eigenschaft dieser Art, sie befällt Kiemen von verschiedenen Fischarten.

Veterinärmedizin
Flavobacterium branchiophilum ist pathogen für Forellen, sie ist der Verursacher der Bakteriellen Kiemenkrankheit. Diese Krankheit tritt in kommerziellen Fischzuchten auf und kann dort gefährlich werden, in natürlichen, wilden Fischpopulationen ist sie nicht als problematisch bekannt.
In der Gattung Flavobacterium sind mehrere Bakterien pathogen für Fische, Beispiele sind F. columnare, F.  hydatis, F. johnsoniae und F. psychrophilum.

With Lindsey on Izor, Andy must move on with his life with his longtime computer/friend now in the body of a beautiful, green-eyed Irish woman. Lucy, now Rebekah McFarland, is being sought by her brother, Dugan McFarland, an IRA terrorist, along with agencies from around the world who are trying to locate them both. For her safety, Lucy and Andy accompany Colonel Mac to Camp Lookout.
As soon as they arrive at Camp Lookout, they're informed of a recent encounter with a violent UFO they could not identify. Since there is peace with the Izorians, it is suspected the attack came from an Indorian aircraft that had made its way through the portal. The Indorians are looking for a planet that is inhabited by beings that can be used as slaves and with animals that can be used as food.
The future of Earth is now in jeopardy if the Indorian aircraft is not destroyed before communicating with its home planet to guide them to Earth. Earthly forces led by the United States must develop a plan to combat these intruders if they locate the portal and make it through. How can Earth defend itself from an intruder that they cannot track and don't know if or when they'll be encountered?

Aramis had been struggling to work to his full potential for a number of years before trying EBT. He had had time off work due to various illnesses and injuries, but really began struggling in April 2007 when he lost all confidence in his ridden work. He was experiencing stiffness when ridden and started to show discomfort. He lost confidence in canter and would buck through transitions as he anticipated pain. His work was erratic, some days he felt fine in walk trot and canter, on other days he felt so stiff and sore I did not dare ask him to do anything but walk. Over the months Aramis was regularly seen by chiropractor Andrea Pole and his muscles treated by Heidi Barnsley, both of whom improved Aramis' confidence and way of going. However there was no sparkle to his work. Most schooling sessions involved 20 to 30 minutes work in walk and throwing every lateral movement under the sun at him so that he would not be unlevel when asked for trot. Even after this extended period in walk his trot would still be very stiff and although would loosen off a little more would never feel truly strong through his back. Aramis' canter had also been weak for a long time, showing signs of discomfort through the transition and stiff during the canter on both reins (a comment regularly found on his dressage sheets). The best description I can offer of Aramis' ridden work before using EBT is that it was always a bit like sitting in a hollow; there was a front end in front of you and a back end behind you and you as the rider stuck in the middle but the two ends didn't meet. There was a general overriding feeling something was missing. Aramis has been through good and bad patches over the years, but looking back even when he was feeling well there had always been something not quite right.
Julie started using EBT on Aramis around about the middle October 2008. The results have been dramatic to say the least. During the first session Aramis' trot became big, powerful and much more ground covering. He was really able to work through his back in a way not felt for a long time. In subsequent sessions Julie has built upon this work, and Aramis has been able to hold the powerful trot for increasing longer periods of time, not only during the session but also for increasingly longer periods into the following week. As Aramis began to use himself more from behind, Julie realised he was being restricted through his shoulders. Using the EBT work to release Aramis' shoulders has been nothing short of a revelation. His whole way of carrying himself has changed, even stood on the yard he looks taller! In his work he is now able to work in a much more upright frame through his shoulder, powering forward in walk, trot and even canter, working up into my hand in a way he has never physically been able to do so before. My position has improved no end, as at last my horse is offering his back so I have something to sit on, rather than feeling like I was sitting in a hole. I now feel I am riding a big powerful dressage horse, rather than a scuttling 12hh pony. Riding Aramis is becoming easy and a real privilege, not one long session of me trying to cajole him to give a bit more and Aramis trying his best but not physically being able to deliver. The more EBT has been used, the more Aramis has adjusted to being able to use his body in different ways, the more his confidence has increased as he realises the stiffness and restrictions that have impeded him for years are no longer there. His ridden work just keeps getting better and better.


From the LA Times: Portugal launches new film, TV rebates in bid to lure Hollywood.
With its grand castles and churches, picturesque cityscapes and long coastline, Portugal boasts the kind of scenery of that would make a Hollywood location scout salivate. But the country hasn't historically drawn major productions the way France, Britain and even Hungary have.


Guana Bay Beach Villas is nestled directly on the surf, on the tradewinds side of Dutch Sint Maarten, overlooking the island of St. Barts. Rattan and natural wood furnishings highlight studio, one and two bedroom accommodations, all with an ocean view. The villas are air conditioned, each with a kitchen, and a large terrace overlooking a magnificent panorama of sea and secluded beach. Nightlife is abundantly available but Sint Maarten is also the ideal island for a quiet getaway. With 36 gorgeous white sand beaches, and equally scenic islands close by, when you're not just plain relaxing, water activities are the big hit on Sint Maarten.


Whats this on my lure??
Fish attractor, like a vibrating leaf on a spoon and these are spoons. Leave 'em on.
Please, no PM's (Private Messages) regarding boat/engine problems.
That is what the forums are for.

Lures are meant to catch fishermen.---------Once they are sold the manufacturer is happy..
Maybe to imitate a bleeding tail? I'd leave 'em on too.
Agreed on the catching fisherman!
There is a fine line between stoic... and DEAD.
We look at lures and think fish will snap them up because WE think the fish think a hunk of plastic or metal looks like dinner. Then we throw the newest lure in the bottom of the tackle box and look for the next lure WE think the fish will think is dinner.
Yeah, I've been hooked a few times and will be in the future.
I must have 50 artificial baits that look like live bait.....and I catch the most fish on live bait.

correct, however man eats anything from land, sea and air as we have found ways to infiltrate the sea and air. still trying to picture a fish flopping up on land, digging up a worm.... then eating said worm....flopping back into the water and swimming off to tell his fish friends. I think Bill Engvall had a skit on that about 25 years ago.
Sorta like sharks? eat man, birds, tires, trash and other fish? I think its a Maslow's thing, mainly and for all species.
Cause there are thousands of species of aquatic worms as well. They've identified 110 species of worms in the Chesapeake alone. Come the end of May into June, you might as well stay home unless you have something that imitates a (May) clam worm.
Fishing commercially and competitively, one would figure I'd have a 18 wheeler full of tackle. Outside my trolling lures, all my "lures" fit in a shoulder bag. Jig heads of various weights for plastics. An assortment of metal (vertical jigging and casting) and a 1/2 dozen Stillwater Smack It lures.
If I can't catch fish with any of theses, it's time to go home.


In many ways, the process of growing as a Christian can be described as the process of learning to be humble under God's mighty hand. As we saw this last Lord's Day from 1 Pet. 5:6-7, such humble submission takes place as we cast all our anxiety on God by faith, confident of His glorious care for us. Peter says much throughout his letter about the full nature of God's care, preeminently demonstrated through the saving work of Jesus Christ at the cross (see 1 Pet. 1:3-12; 1:17-21; 2:24-25; and 3:18-21). Learning to humbly trust and submit to God, in view of His merciful care for us in Christ – this is what it means to grow as a Christian.
1 A Song of Ascents. Of David. O Lord, my heart is not lifted up; my eyes are not raised too high; I do not occupy myself with things too great and too marvelous for me. 2 But I have calmed and quieted my soul, like a weaned child with its mother; like a weaned child is my soul within me. 3 O Israel, hope in the Lord from this time forth and forevermore.


In Year 1 we believe that children learn best when they are having lots of fun! All of the lessons are interactive, exciting and engaging and involve the children in as many ways as possible. The children also still have plenty of opportunities to learn through play while accessing our wonderful areas of continuous provision. We have areas such as a reading corner, sand, numeracy, writing, construction and role play in both our indoor and outdoor classroom. We believe that a great resource can be each other so discussions and questioning are encouraged in all aspects to allow the children to learn from others to build up their own understanding.
Each child enters Year 1 at a different stage; some are ready for the National Curriculum, whereas others will require a little support to achieve the Foundation Stage Profile objectives from Reception. To continue the learning journey, we take assessments made in Reception and identify the next steps for each child. We see every child as an individual, not just a year group. We understand that every child learns in a different way and has different interests and it is our aim to adapt our teaching to suit the children. We encourage their independence throughout, allowing them to take ownership of their learning and achievements and to understand how to solve problems on their own.
We have daily English, Mathematics and Letters and Sounds lessons where we can work on our core skills. Our English is focused around a book that we are reading, as a class, and we produce some fantastic writing of our own linked to this work. Some of the recent books that we have looked at have been Click Clack Moo, Cows That Type by Doreen Cronin and Leaf Man by Lois Ehlert. We teach most areas of the curriculum through the challenge curriculum where diffrent aspects and subjetcs are linked through a common theme for example 'Which plants and animals would Senley find in our park?' (Science), or 'How has technology changed since Grandma and Grandad were young?' (History).
In Year 1 we love taking the children's learning beyond the classroom and go on many trips and visits throughout the year, as well as welcoming outside visitors into the classroom to extend our experiences. These range from learning about the local area by walking around the local area to having a visitor to teach us about Nocturnal Animals. We also visit Chester Zoo to learn about the differences between animals and humans. In year 1 we have a special friend called Senley Green, who loves coming home with our children to learn about what we get up to when we aren't at school.
We do PE on a Monday afternoon – please ensure that your full indoor and outdoor PE kits are in school for these sessions.
Homework is set on a Friday and is due back on the following Wednesday – please ensure you bring it back on time.
We change reading books on a Friday – please ensure that you bring these back to change them.
We have a water machine in the classroom that the children have access to – please send a water bottle into school for your child to use.

Heather, I noticed that from the fenugreek pills that I took. I could always taste them.
One of the 'extras' I ordered this time was fenugreek seeds. We'll see how they work compared to the pills.
Mary Lou, thanks! There is alfalfa in this tea, so I'm curious how that will work.
Trixi, thanks. I've seen the Bulk Herb Store, but last time I considered ordering from them, they either were out of stock of what I needed or the price was higher. I'm pretty happy with Mountain Rose Herbs, though I did like skimming the BHS website.
I usually order all of my herbs from the Bulk Herb Store. I will have to check out Mountain Rose Herbs. I hope your tea helps.


Delightful Dora the Staffy is 14 years young and is an absolute little superstar who is looking for a dream retirement home. She arrived with us from a stray pound – dumped at age 14 but hasn't let that affect her and she is the most loving, happy girl you could meet – a true Staffy and testament to her breed! Dora is now living in a foster home where she's doing great, she's very well behaved and no trouble at all. She is absolutely fine to be left for 4-5 hours at a time, fully housetrained and loves to play with her toys! Dora also still enjoys a nice walk, she walks really nicely on the lead (no pulling at all) and shows no issues around other dogs. Dora came to us with kennel cough, so she hasn't been able to meet other dogs up close yet but this has just cleared up so she will be further assessed around other dogs ASAP. We think she could potentially live with a calm male dog with correct introductions. She has shown no problems at all around children. As she's getting on a bit, she's quite hard of hearing, but has no major health issues at all and with the correct loving care, she has plenty of life ahead of her to enjoy. Dora really needs to find a forever home ASAP where she can settle into her retirement and get all the love and care that she deserves after all she's been through.

The Ayapanec tale Yomi Ndxe' Gwon'nh 'Fish Woman' was narrated by Isidro Velásquez Méndez in San Cristóbal de las Casas during a summer 2002 fieldwork session for the Project for the Documentation of the Languages of Mesoamerica. Don Isidro was born in 1942 and raised in an Ayapanec-speaking household. According to Isidro, this is a true story that was told to him by his grandfather when he was a child. This narrative, like many of the stories Isidro recounts, helps to explain why there is so much poverty in Ayapa today. You can hear the resignation in his voice, but his sly sense of humor also shines through.
