We are not currently reviewing applications for our training class, and only doulas trained in our program can volunteer in our collective, as our weekend-long training includes critical information needed to work with our partner providers. Applications typically open early in the new year, and training takes place in late May-June. Please sign up for our alerts to learn when our next call for applicants starts!
People who are passionate, empathetic, and committed to reproductive justice are encouraged to apply. Any experience in doula work, reproductive health, rights, and justice work, abortion counseling, health service, or personal experiences can be helpful, but isn't necessary.
We strongly encourage people of color, Indigenous people; people with dis/abilities; trans* or genderqueer identified people; queer-identified people; people born outside the USA; Spanish speakers; people living with HIV/AIDS; and people of faith to apply.
People with flexible/free weekdays are ideal. Priority will be given to those who can commit to at least two shifts on weekdays per month. You MUST be a resident of the NYC metro area at the time you submit your application. Only people committed to a minimum of one year of volunteering with The Doula Project will be accepted into this training.
If you do not live in the New York City metro area, but are interested in training with us to start your own doula collective, we have on several occasions sent out our trainers if interested parties can cover a light labor fee and travel reimbursement. If you are interested in this option, please email training@doulaproject.org .
The Doula Project seeks interns to work with us in both clinical and administrative settings. Internships are available every semester and the summer session. They are unpaid, but we are able to offer a monthly Metrocard and school credit where applicable, and our participation in the Reproductive Rights Activist Service Corps (RRASC) Summer Internship Program offers stipends.
We are not currently accepting applications, but please sign up for our alerts to learn when our next call for interns starts!
50%-60% of the intern's position will be to work as a doula daily in the abortion clinics we partner with. At the onset of the internship, we will provide our intern with a 12-hour classroom training on the abortion doula model of care, followed by supervised clinic training. Interns will spend 5-8 hours a day serving as a doula and patient advocate, 3-5 days a week. This involves traditional doula roles of providing emotional, physical, and informational support to clients. Interns will be with clients before, during and after procedures. They will spend time in the waiting and recovery rooms and be present in the procedure and operating rooms while patients undergo their terminations. 5% of the internship will be time to read, watch, and learn about all the different aspects of pregnancy. In order to be a good doula, it is very important the intern have a comprehensive understanding of what happens during pregnancy and its outcomes. We will facilitate this by providing reading material, opportunities to attend workshops and trainings, and significant opportunities to watch abortion procedures and speak with residents and attending doctors.
15%- 25% of the internship will be working on the birth side of our project if they are already a trained birth doula. The Doula Project provides individual mentorship and training, opportunities to attend a birth with a trained doula, introductions to clients and partner organizations, and opportunities to speak with birth doulas who are part of our project. If an intern chooses to do their birth doula training in conjunction with this internship we will include their training time as part of the internship and help match them to birth clients. If an intern is already a doula, we will match them to birth clients at the onset of their internship.
20% of the internship will be to provide programmatic and communications support to the project coordinators. This includes: helping organize monthly meetings, sending out scheduling reminders to doulas, updating our website and social networking sites, editing and writing pieces of our training toolkit, and other tasks as they come up.
If an intern is interested in working on an independent project for 10-15% of their time, the above percentages of time are negotiable.
Being allowed into the room with a person who is facing birth or abortion is an awesome responsibility, an amazing opportunity, and above all, a privilege. We look forward to having the support, energy, and skills that an intern would bring to our work.
We want to stress that this is a direct service position – anyone looking to work in an office should not apply. While this position will be highly supervised, the nature of this work is geared toward people who are interested in working independently with patients as well as in collaboration with doctors and medical professionals. Since the majority of the direct service work will involve talking to patients, hearing their stories, and helping them advocate for themselves, we are looking for someone who is outgoing, a good listener, and has A LOT of patience and tact. Additionally, because we work in hospitals, interns will be drug-tested at the beginning of the internship as part of the hospital physical and should be prepared to pass that test.
The internship takes place in various clinics and hospitals throughout the NYC area, mainly in Manhattan and Brooklyn, all near public transportation. We currently run our abortion service out of one of NYC's largest public hospitals, and three of Planned Parenthood's satellite sites.
Flexible Hours, Minimum 10-20 hours per week. Interns must be able to provide at least three full days per week, Monday-Saturday when they can plan to be present in clinic.
Schedules will be given on a monthly basis and will be based on the needs of the clinic. If the intern is attending a birth, scheduling arrangements will be made to accommodate time off depending on the length and timing of the labor. Administrative tasks may be done from home, if preferred. We are happy to honor requests made in advance for time off. Please note that there are times where we may need a doula urgently, without much advance notice. Unless the intern has requested time off beforehand, they will be the first person we contact.
Casual and clean, but professional. No bra straps, midriff-bearing tops, mini-skirts or shorts; comfortable shoes. Scrubs can either be bought beforehand or can be provided as needed, usually at least one day a week.
How to apply: We are not currently reviewing applications. Please sign up for our alerts to learn when our next call for interns starts!
When ready to apply: Please write a cover letter that includes a brief personal statement responding to the following questions (limit 100-500 words): What does the phrase "Spectrum of Choice" mean to you? How do you see this phrase as being relevant to being a doula?
Please also submit a resume highlighting your work in reproductive health, rights, or justice, as well as counseling, social work, doula work, or health services. Please also submit 2 references we may contact who can speak to your character and qualifications.


It's only since the death of their father, pop legend Michael Jackson, that his children have been able to rip off their coverings and appear unashamedly in public. And I bet it's doing them a world of good!
No more secrecy, coddling, hiding, and paranoia. No more blankets, towels, sheets, drapes, and masks.
In full view, Paris touchingly spoke at dad's memorial in July, and she and Prince Michael appeared at the Grammys last Sunday to charmingly accept a special tribute for him.
I'm sure they miss daddy and some of the fun games he played, but there must also be a bittersweet sense of relief that they can finally throw away their freak umbrellas and be seen and heard without fear or self-consciousness.
Michael's father, however, needs to stay covered up.

Q: How to send a valid HTTP request to a Google Apps Script Web App? We sent an HTTP request from a C++ app (Arduino Sketck) to a Google apps script web app, but we got the HTTP Response: HTTP/1.1 302 Moved Temporarily. The url with the http request works fine from a browser.
The same code works also fine with other web site, like www.google.com. Do not work with script.google.com.
The Google apps script published web app is public, anyone even anonymous can access:
Here the code we used.
    client.println("GET /macros/s/AKfycbyQnmHekk4_NNy3Bl5ILzuSRkykMWaXQ7Rtojk7fFieDUbVqNM/exec?valore=7 HTTP/1.1");
    client.println("Host: script.google.com");
    client.println("Connection: close");
    client.println();

The answer was:

    HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
    Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8

The url is correct (
http://script.google.com/macros/s/AKfycbyQnmHekk4_NNy3Bl5ILzuSRkykMWaXQ7Rtojk7fFieDUbVqNM/exec?valore=7) but seems that the google apps script web app redirect the request (to the same url, using the https protocol).
Using the same code, we did others HTTP request from Arduino, and it worked fine.
For example we did:
    client.println("GET /search?q=arduino HTTP/1.1");
    client.println("Host: www.google.com");
    client.println("Connection: close");
    client.println();

And we got the response `` HTTP/1.1 200 OK ```, and the html response contains the search result according with the query q=arduino
Any suggestion on how we can send a valid http/https request to a Google apps script web app?
Thanks.

A: As you have noticed, the Google script app is redirecting you from HTTP to HTTPS.  Some Google sites are accessible via HTTP, they don't have to redirect to HTTPS if they don't want to.  In your example, http://www.google.com/search?q=arduino does redirect, to https://www.google.com/search?q=arduino&gws_rd=ssl.  But, your client is not sending a User-Agent header in the request, so Google knows your client is not a browser, and might not be issuing the redirect in your case.  But in a real browser, it does.
Putting the URL http://script.google.com/macros/s/AKfycbyQnmHekk4_NNy3Bl5ILzuSRkykMWaXQ7Rtojk7fFieDUbVqNM/exec?valore=7 into a browser does redirect to https://script.google.com/macros/s/AKfycbyQnmHekk4_NNy3Bl5ILzuSRkykMWaXQ7Rtojk7fFieDUbVqNM/exec?valore=7.  A real browser will follow that redirect automatically, a user might not even notice the difference.
But your client will have to follow the redirect manually.  That means extracting the Location header from the response, closing the existing connection (to script.google.com on port 80), connecting to the specified server (script.google.com on port 443), and initiating an SSL/TLS encrypted session with the server before you can finally send the HTTP request.
SSL/TLS is complex, and HTTP has a lot of rules to it.  Don't try to implement them manually.  You are best off using an existing HTTP library that has HTTPS support built in.  Let it handle all of these details for you.

Equilibrium equations designation for frame under continuous load q[N/m]. Frame has shape like sign [ which was rotated by π/2 to right side. Frame stands on unmovable support on the left. Frame stands on moveable support on the right. Considered example is two dimensional.
Cable is rolled around unmovable roller. We assume that cable is massless. Weight with mass m[kg] is hanged at the one of cable ends. Sliding friction exists between roller's surface and cable. Sliding friction is described and sliding friction factor μ[-]. Cable is rolled around roller on the one quarter of its circuit. Roller cross-section is a wheel. Force F has to designated. Force F is responsible for keeping system in equilibrium.
Beam is hanged to ceiling via two ropes. Ropes are massless. Beam has mass m[kg]. Force F[N] works in specified beam's point. In example equilibrium equations for system have to calculated. Reaction forces in ropes also have to be calculated. Beam is under gravity field. Beam has length 8·a. Gravity force which works on beam has to be placed in beam's gravity center C.
Material point with mass m is on the slope. Slope is inclined by angle α. Between slope surface and material point exists static sliding friction described by factor μ. Subject of example is to find angle αmax in equilibrium position.
Roll is on the silppery slope. There is rolling friction between slope's surface and roll. Sliding friction also exists between roll and slope's surface. Subject of example is to designate equilibrium equations. Next we have to calculate vaule of force F which keeps roll in rest. Force F doesn't let roll down the slope. Slope is inclined by angle α.

Santander International's new Managing Director for the Isle of Man Branch has started his role after a three-month delay due to the Covid-19 lockdown.
James Geldart was due to take up his position in the Isle of Man in early April, however, pandemic restrictions meant he could not leave Jersey until July. Upon his arrival on Manx soil earlier this month, James completed a two-week isolation period, where he was working from home. Earlier this week James joined his new team in Douglas.
James is no stranger to the Isle of Man, having grown up in the south of the Island and as a former pupil of Castle Rushen High School.
He has worked with Santander International since 2016 as Head of Retail and Private Banking for Jersey and the Isle of Man. During this time, James developed the bank's HNW and mass affluent proposition for both island residents and international customers.
Having worked in banking since 2006, notably within wealth management and the expatriate market in UK, Dubai and Jersey, he has a wealth of experience behind him.
James said: "I'm delighted to be able to move back home to the Isle of Man and this promotion marks an exciting time for me both personally and professionally.
"Santander International has a strong and growing presence in the Island and as Managing Director of the Isle of Man Branch I hope to further the development of the bank, exceeding the expectations of our clients and continuing to offer a brilliant working environment for our staff."
A graduate with a BA Honours degree in Management and a Charterholder with the Chartered Institute of Securities and Investments, James began his career in banking as a Financial Planning Manager with HSBC UK, working with the bank in various roles and jurisdictions. Outside of work, James is a keen cyclist and triathlete, taking part in local and international events.
James Pountney, Chief Executive Officer, Santander International, said: "Growing and developing talent is a big part of our success story at Santander International and we are delighted to see James take this next step in his career. James has become an integral part of our leadership team and his extensive Jersey and Isle of Man connections will help us maintain a strong working relationship between teams in these jurisdictions."

Q: Array indexing size I am getting confused with an array code.
According to me the program should raise an error but it's working fine. The code :
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>

void main()
{
    int a[1],n,i;
    clrscr();
    printf("Enter the length");
    scanf("%d",&n);
    for( i=0;i<n;i++)
    {
        scanf("%d",&a[i]);
    }
    for(i=0;i<n;i++)
    {
        printf("%d ",a[i]);
    }
    getch();
}

Here the array size is 1 but when I enter the length 5 then it works fine : the program show all 5 elements that i have entered.
This is the output screen.

A: Accessing array out of bounds causes undefined behavior. Anything can happen including the outcome you are observing. In this case you are overwriting some objects stored after the array. They are just not used in this particular case and your program doesn't crash.
Such bugs are really hard to debug. It works fine now, but might start to fail, for example, when different compiler is used. Memory analyzer can help detecting such bugs. It will detect some invalid memory accesses, even if they do not cause a crash.

A: When you have defined int a[1], only space for one int is allocated on the stack. Any access beyond array bound causes undefined behavior. Therefore, the code is wrong according to the C standard.
In your case, the program is accessing some space beyond the array and by the chance of luck you didn't end up yourself with a segmentation fault.

Recapping the
Big Screen Symposium 2015
By Doug Dillaman
↳ FILM	→ NZ Cinema
Collaboration and process were front and centre at the fourth annual Big Screen Symposium for New Zealand filmmakers.
I've observed the previous two installments of the Big Screen Symposium from the armchair of Twitter, at once seduced by the aggregation of hashtag wisdom and left to wonder what extra value would come from actually being there. Not being the sort to approach celebrities between sessions or to pitch executives over coffee, would I find it worth spending an entire weekend in university lecture theatres, taking frantic notes, making tough choices over what seminars to attend, and mingling with crowds?
Definitively: Yes. Above and beyond the distilled ideas and pithy quotes, there's an energy to the concentration and focus that the BSS provides, one that's not just about the event itself but the other attendees. I met Twitter friends, reconnected with filmmakers, producers, and actors I hadn't seen for years, and came away with a number of useful provocations to reinvigorate my creative muscles, and one formative idea for a screenplay. (And, despite the advice of Chilean filmmaker Sebastián Silva, I'm not sharing it with you. Yet.)
John Landau with Tom Hern
In some ways, it's a curious event, as the big tent of the BSS is one that embraces contradictory impulses and motivations. Could a filmmaker learn from both Venice award-winning microbudget filmmaker Jake Mahaffy, who forsook all financial return in order to see his newest feature Free in Deed get made, and Avatar producer Jon Landau[1], who spoke of team-building by way of flying crew members and their families to vacation at his house in the Florida Keys? (I argued yes, to one dubious attendee: we can't all fly people to the Florida Keys, or even Queenstown, but we can spend time with our collaborators and their families.) I watched tweets fly from a production seminar about the necessity of a business plan for a film at the same time as Love Story director Florian Habicht discussed how he starts shooting before he seeks funding. In his state-of-the-union address, New Zealand Film Commission Chief Executive Dave Gibson declared that one of the NZFC's next steps would be to work with guilds to define what a successful industry in five years would look like. It's a good question, and one that's tough to wrap one's brain around—what simple statement could encompass Avatar (or the upcoming Avatar 2, 3, and 4) and Free in Deed, or 2015 local box-office smash Born To Dance and Love Story into a single vision of an industry?[2]
Sebastián Silva
In theory, the focus of the weekend was on collaboration; in practice, at least in my ears, it quickly morphed into a discussion on process. When he wasn't sharing hilariously troubling anecdotes on working with Christopher Doyle[3], Nasty Baby director Silva charted his progress over five features. "Old ways of making movies have brainwashed us." He's moved towards smaller and smaller crews, and for Nasty Baby and Crystal Fairy has worked from well-developed outlines instead of scripts, allowing actors the freedom to find moments and use their own dialogue. While using a similarly open process, Mahaffy has had an opposite trajectory, moving from a one-person film crew to a crew of 12 for Free in Deed, a change that he initially found overwhelming. Mahaffy, Silva, and Florian Habicht[4] all discussed the difficulty of ceding control of the camera, and how much easier it is to get the shots you want when you don't have to communicate to a DP.
But Mahaffy, for whatever traumas he went through, was eager to work again with a similarly-sized crew, and so: collaboration. How you pick your partners and make sure collaboration is successful was on everyone's mind (except for the guy who kept wanting to know where everybody got their money from, as if knowing the identity of a Chilean funder in 1997 would suddenly send millions of dollars to his doorstep). Rachel Griffiths stole the entire damn weekend with her keynote, based around the four points of wisdom she'd received from her 11-year old son Banjo in how he'd pick collaborators: "Someone not as annoying as shit, someone who's easy to talk to, someone who doesn't get too into it and go, like, weird, and someone who knows what they're doing." To say that we made a group pledge to be the sort of person Banjo would want to work with probably sounds cheesy and horrible—but we did just that, and it felt pretty damn good, as did participatory exercises revealing a consensus on the least desirable trait in a collaborator: saying no and being closed to other ideas.[5]
Florian Habicht
Which is its own irony, as for creative, being open to ideas, particularly in the form of negative feedback, was often described as wounding, but always described as necessary. Florian Habicht pointed out that it led him to do re-shoots on Kaikohe Demolition that led to the best scenes in the film. Good ideas come from anywhere, if you're ready to listen; virtually everybody said some variation of this comment. In this spirit, here are some from the weekend. Take what you need, burn the rest.
"Great ideas are never delivered whole."—Anthony McCarten, whose description of the three-act structure as "a mold into which you can pour your slurry of words" was the most-quoted line of the weekend
"Learning opportunities come in the least likely of places."—John Landau
"To go through embarrassment changes your spirit."—Sebastián Silva
"I don't care about tidy design, I want something real."—Jake Mahaffy
"Never start writing if you don't have the ending."—Anthony McCarten
"We changed the whole ending in post."—Jane Campion, discussing Top of the Lake
"Plot is what you leave at the theatre, theme is what you walk away with."—Jon Landau
"Shooting this film didn't feel like a creative endeavor, more like problem solving."—Jake Mahaffy
"It's important to be comfortable sitting with uncertainty."—Australian producer Bridget Ikin
"You can only give 110% of yourself to so many projects."—John Landau
"Artistic success doesn't protect from a failure of process."—Rachel Griffiths
"I have a very determinist view. I use anybody who shows up."—Jake Mahaffy
"Don't work with stressful people."—Florian Habicht
"When you lose fear, you start making mistakes."—Sebastián Silva
"I could do without fear."—Anthony McCarten
"Master your subject completely; know more about your subject than anyone else."—Sebastián Silva
"Write what you don't know, so that your personal journey is an exploration."—Anthony McCarten
"I don't care if there's no smell of me on the project, I just care that it's good."—Rachel Griffiths sharing the wisdom of NZ producer Tim White
"When you do stuff from the heart, people pick up on it."—Florian Habicht
"Everyone in this room has to be an optimist because nobody's making any money."—NZ producer Tainui Stephens
"No movie makes sense on paper."—Jon Landau
"You do what you can, not what you want."—Sebastián Silva sharing the wisdom of Christopher Doyle
"There are no rules."—Jane Campion
"Just get out there and do it. Own a camera, it gives you freedom."—Florian Habicht
NZFC CEO Dave Gibson
For all the myriad strengths of the weekend, if there's an elephant in the room at the Big Screen Symposium, one that points to a long-term need for the event to reconceive itself, it's lurking in plain sight. The very name implies big screens—but more and more, films aren't being seen on them, and filmmakers are turning to work on the small screen. The television industry, despite the presence of many professionals who work either across both industries or entirely in the former, was almost entirely absent from the proceedings. Dave Gibson noted that "eyeballs," including television and VOD, were now being used as a metric for successful performance rather than box-office, yet was caught flat-footed when asked if, in the wake of Turbo Kid's widely reported torrenting, piracy counted towards these numbers. Jon Landau was fiercely passionate about making cinemas a better experience than home viewing could ever be—but what does that mean for filmmakers like Silva, Mahaffy, or Habicht, whose films are unlikely to ever exist in, much less benefit from, 8k 96fps 3-D with 7.1 sound, vibrating chairs, and customized LED screens at the entry to the cinema?
Jane Campion with Philippa Campbell
It's telling that the final presentation, from a cheery Jane Campion, focused exclusively on Top of the Lake, her most current work—and a television series. She noted that she only got into filmmaking because she hadn't found love, and if she ever found love, she'd quit. As Turbo Kid producer Tim Riley prepared for the final farewells, he noted that he won't wish that Campion finds love, because it would mean she wouldn't make any more movies. Her reply? "I don't make movies any more." For all her smiles, it didn't feel like a canary in a coalmine succumbing to the fumes; it felt like a miner.

The Big Screen Symposium is an annual Auckland event. It ran from October 10-11. Other speakers not mentioned in this article include film composer Graeme Revell; screenwriter Duncan Sarkies; documentary filmmakers Chris Pryor and Miriam Smith; producers Chelsea Winstanley, Libby Hakaraia, and Matthew Metclafe; and writer Briar Grace-Smith.
[1] Though I actually am very fond of Avatar, it's Solaris that I value most amongst Landau's films, and one that he didn't mention until I forced the point in the Q&A. He noted that the film shouldn't have been released on Thanksgiving weekend and they should have made it for 2/3rds the budget, then moved on. Given Landau's focus on making Avatar sequels for the foreseeable future and his general pride in the number of tickets sold by Avatar and Titanic, I didn't get the impression he'd be bringing a similar project to screen any time soon.
[2] His proposal—that he could go to a Christmas party with a wide cross section of people and everyone would have seen a New Zealand film they loved in the theatre in the past 12 months—is an intriguing one, albeit unquantifiable.
[3] I'll skip the one that's either actionable or libelous (although the first paragraph of this Doyle interview suggests the former), but in the pragmatic realm, Doyle flat-out refused to set up many of Silva's requested shots. He'd ask for a close-up, and Doyle would reply: "That's HBO bullshit." Silva first wanted to fire him, then after surviving the shoot, wanted to move in with him, treating the experience as parental tough love that had strengthened him. (I could write this entire article on Silva's sessions. He's fucking hilarious, insightful, and inspiring, and vastly exceeded my expectations.)
[4] I am slightly embarrassed that, at an event that was notable for focusing on and providing voices for numerous talented women, I unconsciously found myself choosing sessions by men instead of women, and thus missed producer Liz Watts (Animal Kingdom, The Rover), What We Do In The Shadows publicist Anna Dean, and director Alison Maclean. Thankfully, key joint sessions featured women, but it's something I'll keep in mind for future events.
[5] Jon Landau, relaying his story of going to the producer of Beat Street, on which he was post-production supervisor, along with the music supervisor, and telling him they wouldn't make a deadline for Cannes, shared that producer's reply: "I pay you to get it done, not to tell me that you can't."

Olympic gold-medalist, former Cal rower champions 'Fair Pay to Play'
OAKLAND, Calif. (KTVU) - After graduating from UC Berkeley as a back-to-back NCAA Division I national champion, Erin Cafaro embarked on a journey to pursue her dream of making the 2008 Beijing Olympic rowing team.
To the public and many around her, this path would be filled with publicity and extravagant pay.
The truth is that Cafaro received zero profit for her athletic excellence during her five years as a Golden Bear. The NCAA forbade it.
So for the next two years, she struggled to make ends meet working a part-time job, training up to eight hours a day and suffering several injuries. To this day, she wishes she could have used her athletic prowess to rake in sponsorships or other means of profit during her college heyday. The cash could have helped get health insurance, or just given her a little breathing room.
"Having a little bit of a financial buffer will allow athletes to find a job that they really care about versus having to just take the first one that is offered," Cafaro told KTVU on Tuesday.
Cafaro's tale represents the struggle of many student athletes in this country. That's why the 36-year-old Oakland resident has embraced her new role in overturning what many are calling an archaic system that goes way beyond the field.
"This is an issue that's not really centered on sports," one of the bill's co-authors, Sen. Steven Bradford, testified to in June. "It's centered on fairness, and in many ways, it's a civil rights issue."
Cafaro also was there in Sacramento, testifying in favor the Fair Pay to Play Act, or SB 206, which would allow most California collegiate athletes the freedom to profit from their name, image and likeness.
"It's all about the student-athlete long-term wellness," Cafaro said. "And unfortunately, this situation has forced some athletes to choose between being a student and an athlete. Having the opportunity to receive external funding during prime competitive years in college could set athletes up for better development after sport with financial stability and incentive to complete their college degree," she added.
The NCAA is arguing if student-athletes earn money from their athletic endeavors, then they wouldn't be amateurs anymore, and would therefore be ineligible to participate in the multi billion-dollar association.
In June, NCAA President Mark Emmerett sent a letter to California senators Kansen Chu and Jose Medina saying it would be "impossible for the NCAA to host fair championships," alluding to the possibility that California schools could be banned from postseason play if the bill was approved.
In addition, the University of California, California State University and Stanford also argued the bill would deter prospective student athletes from choosing to attend California schools -- assuming the NCAA would enforce repercussions on the programs.
Andy Fee, Long Beach State University athletic director, testified that the proposed bill would "benefit a very small percentage of student athletes weighed against the potential harm to many of our student athletes."
The university officials made it clear that they were not against the players earning money from their own feats, but were instead concerned with the likelihood of the NCAA lashing back at the players and the schools.
Despite the opposition, the bill passed on July 9 by the Assembly's Higher Education Committee 9-0 -- a win for its co-authors, senators Nancy Skinner and Steven Bradford.
Skinner's team emphasized that the intention of the bill is not to force colleges and governing organizations to pay their athletes. They are instead advocating for a right that all Americans are given, referred to as the "right of publicity," which student-athletes are now required to give up if they use their image or name in the context of the sport they play for their school.
Skinner also believes the current NCAA rules result in disproportionate discrimination on a gender level.
"Female athletes who have little to no opportunities to go pro have the potential to benefit the most from SB 206, because it will allow them to earn income when many are at the height of their athletic ability," she told KTVU in a statement. "Plus, when female college athletes can market themselves, it will raise the profile and popularity of women's sports — something that the male-dominated sports industry hasn't been willing to do."
And of course, male athletes would stand to benefit from the new legislation as well. In 2017, University of Central Florida kicker Donald De La Haye had his football scholarship revoked after profiting from a YouTube channel, where he used his athletic status as a college player to draw an audience. With his scholarship taken from him, he was unable to pay his tuition and had to leave the university and forgo his education.
In a 2012 study by the National College Players Association and Drexel University, researchers found that during the 2010-11 academic year, the fair market value of the average Division I Football Bowl Subdivision football player was over $130,000 and nearly $290,000 for the average high level NCAA basketball player. The study also showed that 82 percent of full scholarship FBS athletes who live on campus and 90 percent who live off campus live at or below the federal poverty level.
But Cafaro said it is actually the non-full scholarship athletes playing lower-profile sports who this bill would impact even more.
"I know we typically think of these high-profile sports as the beneficiaries of compensation for their name and likeness," Cafaro said during her June testimony before the Senate committee. "But I just want to bring attention to another significant population of athletes that could benefit from the additional financial support, not only to maintain the opportunity to compete for their school but also to support their transition for their future career aspirations."
Back when Cafaro was at UC Berkeley, she did not receive any form of athletic scholarship until her senior year. Even then, it was only a partial scholarship.
But in the world of collegiate sports, Cafaro is far from an anomaly. Only 1 percent of college athletes receive full scholarships, according to a recruiting service, the Next College Student Athlete.
Cafaro said she actually feels pretty lucky. Her family was able to support her through college and she eventually became a two-time Olympic Gold medalist.
But others had it much worse, she said, as many of her peers didn't have the luxury of parental support. And now, she has found that her mentees, many who play in low-profile sports, often have difficulty finding work after graduation.
"Having a little bit of a financial buffer will allow these athletes to find a job that they really care about versus having to just take the first one that is offered," Cafaro said. "It really sets them up for a better development and longevity throughout their lifetime, not just taking the first financial opportunity out of college, but being able to explore."

Rescreening a child that failed the initial hospital hearing screening is becoming more common in medical office settings. Medical home providers are beginning to conduct the re-screen in their office using OAEs. As this is a fairly new practice and becoming more prevalent, there is no guidance on best practices to ensure providers and/or office staff is properly trained to conduct the screening, read the results, report results to the state, and/or arrange a full audiological evaluation for those children that are identified as having a potential hearing loss. The AAP loss to follow-up/documentation (LTF/D) Workgroup -a subcommittee of the AAP Task Force on Improving the Effectiveness of Hearing Screening, Diagnosis, and Intervention (EHDI Task Force) - has developed a set of guidelines for medical home providers to ensure that screens are conducted accurately and results are reported to the state. This information will be extremely useful to providers already rescreening in the office and those that may be considering it. We will also briefly address billing and reimbursement practices related to same.

Abstract: Proxies for regulatory reforms based on categorical variables are increasingly used in empirical evaluation models. We surveyed 63 studies that rely on such indices to analyze the effects of entry liberalization, privatization, unbundling, and independent regulation of the electricity, natural gas, and telecommunications sectors. We highlight methodological issues related to the use of these proxies. Next, taking stock of the literature, we provide practical advice for the design of the empirical strategy and discuss the selection of control and instrumental variables to attenuate endogeneity problems undermining identification of the effects of regulatory reforms.

Chinese food is one of my favourite types of cuisine and something I enjoy quite regularly.
Takeaways are good if you're in the right mood but for me, nothing can beat going out to a restaurant to eat.
This is even more so with Chinese food as, like Indian, it is a real experience with plenty of dishes.
Luckily, the popular Pearl City Cantonese restaurant on Laneham Street in Scunthorpe town centre offers an authentic Chinese experience and so much more.
We paid a visit on a week night to sample its delights.
After looking through the menu for a long time and ordering a bottle of wine, we were served complimentary prawn crackers with sweet and sour and sweet chilli sauces. We then ordered the house combination for two, which is barbecued spare ribs, spring rolls, sesame prawn toast, crispy wonton and seaweed with grated scallop, served with a sweet and sour dip.
We also ordered a quarter of aromatic crispy duck for two, which is served with pancakes, salad and hoisin sauce.
For our main course, we ordered salt and pepper crispy chicken, crunchy shredded beef in chilli wine (rainbow beef) and fried plain soft noodles.
It's not hard to see why Pearl City is so popular as the food is lovely. Inside, the restaurant is decorated really nicely to make your dining experience more authentic. The staff are friendly and happy to help you out with any food choices.
The prawn crackers were a nice way to kick off the meal but the real star of the show for me was the house combination. My favourite part of Chinese food has always been the starters and this was no exception.
The combination of the appetisers on the plate worked really well. The spare ribs were succulent and tasty although I would have liked a little bit more barbecue flavour to them. I really enjoyed the spring rolls and wontons and the grated scallops on the seaweed was a nice touch. It was also a good size for two people to manage. This is a great dish to have if you want to try a few different dishes.
The main course was delicious. My partner said the salt and pepper chicken was lovely and I really enjoyed the sweet flavours of the beef. We've never really been massive fans of rice so the soft noodles were a perfect side to accompany our dishes.
We couldn't quite manage all of our mains but the staff were happy to box the leftovers up for us.
We did take a look at the dessert menu, which has lots of choice, but decided we were too full for sweets.
The house combination is £9, the quarter duck is £9, the beef is £8.50, the chicken is £7.50 and the noodles are £3.50.
Call 01724 855755. Pearl City also offers a takeaway menu (collection only).

BlackBerry: An Emerging Big Data Company
BlackBerry Limited (BB) is somewhat of an enigma in the investment world, full of great promise but at the same time, it has let shareholders down time and again. The company is armed with a huge patent portfolio, and offers several cutting-edge products in cybersecurity, Internet-of-Things (IoT), and automotive technology. What's more, shares have surged 32% in the last two sessions after BlackBerry announced that it has sold 90 smartphone technology patents to Huawei, as part of its shift away from the mobile phone space. But while BlackBerry gushes with potential, it also disappoints quarter after quarter. In the most recent quarter, BlackBerry missed on revenue and GAAP EPS. Most concerning were the drop in revenue, down 20% year-over-year, and the sizeable increase in GAAP operating loss of $127 million, up from the $29 million loss one year ago. To be fair, some of the performance issues were pandemic-related, particularly with regards to the auto sector where plant shutdowns have translated to fewer automobile deliveries, and hence, lower QNX licensing fees. However, the company's revenue has been shrinking for several years before the pandemic. The five-year growth rate for example is -20.8%. Company Transformation The story is not all bad. Glimmers of hope are emerging in what may yet shape up to be a multi-year turnaround story that started in 2013, the year that John Chen took the reigns of BlackBerry as CEO. At that time, BlackBerry was a $6 billion Titanic, immersed in red ink after hitting an iceberg called the Apple iPhone. After taking charge, John Chen proceeded to monetize the company's patent portfolio, and transform the mobile phone manufacturer into a much more modest $1 billion software company. The transformation has taken place over several years, with half a dozen acquisitions along the way, including Cylance, Good, and AtHoc. These companies have been assimilated and worked into BlackBerry's product streams, but also have resulted in a significant write down of goodwill, including $500 million earlier in 2020. BlackBerry has at least stabilized its financial situation, and now has positive free cash flow and adjusted EBITDA. That said, the turmoil surrounding the company has affected its stock price and resulted in an attractive valuation. BlackBerry also boasts some promising technologies that could lead to strong revenue growth down the road. This may be a great time to invest in BlackBerry. Valuation Metrics BlackBerry's low valuation should come as no surprise given its past troubles. The company has superior metrics versus the software industry on a number of fronts, summarized in the table below. MetricBlackBerryIndustryPrice/Sales Ratio5.8511.31Price/Book Ratio3.0711.44Gross Margin74.2%70.9%Operating Margin-9.2%-23.6%Current Ratio2.271.57Total Debt/Equity0.330.55 Metrics such as price/sales and price/book ratio suggest that BlackBerry is quite undervalued, with a strong likelihood that the stock will outperform once the company's future potential is recognized by the market. It is not at all unreasonable to expect a 2x - 3x stock price increase from its current level. BlackBerry IVY BlackBerry's recent announcement regarding its strategic alliance with Amazon Web Services (AWS) may be enough to kick-start the company's stock price. The exclusive partnership provides instant credibility along with a 'Big Data' mindset to vehicle data, resulting in unlimited potential for third-party applications in areas such as car insurance, maintenance, EV charging, and connected vehicles. The AWS platform gives BlackBerry IVY cloud-connectivity, scalability, and a global reach. This initiative will provide BlackBerry with a new source of recurring revenue in the automotive market, where it already has software installed in over 175 million cars. Spark Suite Apart from BlackBerry IVY, there are several other promising technologies emerging from BlackBerry, including Spark Suite, which combines Endpoint Management with Endpoint Security, a logical step in the evolution of mobile devices. Spark Suite provides Zero Trust, an emerging concept in cybersecurity that is becoming a necessity for enterprises as mobile devices such as wearables become the norm within the workplace. In addition to IVY and Spark Suite, BlackBerry has several other more mature product offerings including QNX, BlackBerry AtHoc, and BlackBerry SecuSUITE. While not as exciting as BlackBerry's recent initiatives, they provide a steady and increasing revenue stream. Wall Street's Take From Wall Street analysts, BlackBerry earns a Hold analyst consensus based on 3 Hold ratings. Additionally, the average price target of $8 puts the downside potential at 18.7%. (See BlackBerry stock analysis on TipRanks) Summary and Conclusions BlackBerry has had a turbulent past, downsizing from a $6 billion hardware company into a $1 billion software company over the last seven years. Revenue was down 20% year-over-year in the latest quarter, but much of the poor performance can be attributed to the soft auto sector resulting from the pandemic. QNX licensing fees and royalties will pick up as the global economy improves. Despite several years of disappointing results, the company has stabilized its financial situation and appears to be positioned to capitalize on several leading-edge technology ventures, including its exclusive partnership with AWS and enterprise mobility management and security. Given the very low valuation, this could be an ideal time to invest in BlackBerry. Disclaimer: The information contained herein is for informational purposes only.

"Love doesn't come along too often. Believe me, I know. When it does, only the foolish let it fade. Even if it is him."
— H.M. Ward

— Nikki Rae
"Love doesn't conquer all; it's a powerful tool to overcome everything because it means you're not alone."
— Stephanie Witter
Love doesn't make the world go round
Sex makes it spin for a second or two
If you're lucky
So do chips, sausage rolls and girls in short skirts
Lays its fingers on your heart
And holds it
Remember that
When the next girl smiles"
— Cath Crowley
"Sometimes love is a surprise, an instant of recognition, a sudden gift at a sudden moment that makes everything different from then on. Some people will say that's not love, that you can't really love someone you don't know. But, I'm not so sure. Love doesn't seem to follow a plan; it's not a series of steps. It can hit with the force of nature
an earthquake, a tidal wave, a storm of wild relentless energy that is beyond your simple attempts at control."
— Deb Caletti
"Love is more than just feeling something Syn, it's the connection of two souls that intertwine and cannot be without the other. It's not just saying you love someone, it's showing them with every fucking breath you take, every look. It just is, simple as that. That kind of love doesn't die. It withers the soul without the other to keep it alive."
— Amelia Hutchins
"Love doesn't attack; it infiltrates."
— Lauren Willig
"Love doesn't break easily, I found. But people do."
— Amy Garvey
"Love doesn't want people to stay ignorant and frightened. Love doesn't value obedience over all else. Love doesn't judge and find some lives

more valuable than others. Love doesn't use people and throw them away. Love stays, and makes you stronger, even when the person you love is gone."
— Stacey Jay
"Love is wild and unruly and it does what it wants with our hearts without us having any say in it. It's beautiful and paralyzing and breathtaking. And it kills us because it's the only thing that keeps us alive. Love doesn't play our games because love is a completely different game in and of itself."
— Kandi Steiner
"If love only belongs to the life, why life is so short and death feels more timeless and completely separates our closeness?
if so, why love doesn't belong to the death instead?"
— CG9sYXJhZGl0aWE=
"Love doesn't go anywhere when you die, you know. The person passes on, the body withers, but love, it survives."
— Sarah Strohmeyer
"Just because they were soul mates doesn't mean they had to last forever. Just because they felt true love doesn't mean they couldn't have a new life after that love was over."
— Abby McDonald
"Love doesn't keep a score of wrongs. Love doesn't bring up past failures. None of us is perfect. In marriage we do not always do the right thing. We have sometimes done and said hurtful things to our spouses. We cannot erase the past. We can only confess it and agree that it was wrong. We can ask for forgiveness and try to act differently in the future. Having confessed my failure and asked forgiveness, I can do nothing more to mitigate the hurt it may have caused my spouse. When I have been wronged by my spouse and she has painfully confessed it and requested forgiveness, I have the option of justice or forgiveness. If I choose justice and seek to pay her back or make her pay for her wrongdoing, I am making myself the judge and her the felon. Intimacy becomes impossible. If, however, I choose to forgive, intimacy can be restored. Forgiveness is the way of love."
— Gary Chapman
"Eighteen months pass in a mere blink of an eye. But when you miss someone, someone that took up over half of your heart, the days seem to drag on for an eternity. Each day seems longer than the one before it. And no matter what everyone tells you, the pain that comes with losing someone you love doesn't get better. You just get better at living with it."
— J.L. Vallance
"If we're wrapping ourselves up to conceal any vulnerability, whatever happens to us has to go through all those extra layers. Sometimes love doesn't even reach where we truly live."
— Alexandra Katehakis
"Love ... doesn't happen every day. It doesn't happen at all for some people"
— Josh Lanyon
"Love doesn't happen in an instant. It creeps up on you and then it turns your life upside down. It colors your waking moments, and fills your dreams. You begin to walk on air and see life in brilliant new shades. But it also brings with it a sweet agony, a delicious torture."
— Vikas Swarup
"Real love doesn't keep score."
— Bryant McGill
"Love doesn't tell time. - Brooklyn"
— Lisa Schroeder
"I've found out that falling in love doesn't have anything to do with time. It can take a year or an instant. It happens when it's ready to happen."
— Nora Roberts
"Then it stands to reason that love doesn't make a man less than what he already is."
"It makes him vulnerable."
"Perhaps it does," Ramsey agreed.
"And if his mind is constantly consumed with thoughts of her, then he becomes weak. Is that not so?"
Ramsey smiled. "I'll tell you what is so. You love her, Brodick, and that scares the hell out of you."
"I should have broken your nose."
— Julie Garwood
"Love doesn't last." She didn't know how much showed her pale face.
Meribah's face softened. "Sometimes it does. If it's the right kind."
— Francine Rivers
"You were wrong, Gram," I said softly, tone emotionless because I was resigned to the awful, lonely truth of it. "Love doesn't save our souls. It kills them."
— R.K. Lilley
"Love doesn't care about prejudices."
— Tera Lynn Childs
"Passion is such a stronge emotion that it dominates everything. It's like a strong spice in a meal, or a dominant red in a painting. Your senses are drawn to it at the expense of everything else. Dominic and I were not physical friends, so to speak. But I did love him. We can't help loving the people we do, can we? But the love doesn't have to be physical. You can be equally intimate. It doesn't matter."
— James Runcie
"True love doesn't happen right away; it's an ever-growing process. It develops after you've gone through many ups and downs, when you've suffered together, cried together, laughed together."
— Ricardo Montalban
"But love makes you an optimist", she said. "That is what love is. It is hope for the future. Love doesn't want you to lose faith, to view the world darkly, to have no hope. Love makes you believe in the impossible. That is the meaning of the word"
— Karina Halle
"I would like to fall in love again but my only hope is that love doesn't happen to me so often after this. I don't want to get so used to falling in love that i get curious to experience something more extreme - whatever that may be."
— Douglas Coupland
"God's love doesn't leave out Jews or Muslims or anyone."
— Dyan Cannon
"She explains that lost love is still love.Life has to end but love doesn't"
— Mitch Albom
"Love doesn't mean anything if you're not willing to make a commitment, and you have to think not only about what you want, but about what he wants. Not just now, but in the future."
— Nicholas. Sparks
"I never fell in love with her so I guess the part of the brain that controls love doesn't respond to being called a dick.'
'For your sake, I'm hoping no part of your brain responds to being called a dick.'
'Fair point."
"Love doesn't last."
— Paul Theroux
"We love until we do not. For us, love doesn't fade gradually. It snaps like a branch bent too far."
— Holly Black
"Nothing is ever for sure, but when something in love doesn't work from the beginning, it's never going to work. Don't push it."
— Vanessa Paradis
"I can see why she feels left behind. Maybe even discarded. Is that why she refuses to accept my love and return it? Afraid that love doesn't last? Doesn't really exist? Afraid if her own father can withdraw his love (or at least the manifestation of his love), that maybe she somehow isn't worthy of the emotion?"
— Ellen Hopkins
"Real love doesn't die. It's the physical body that dies. Genuine, authentic love has no expectations whatsoever; it doesn't even need the physical presence of a person ... Even when he is dead and buried that part of you that loves the person will always live."
— Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
"Find new treasures in yourself. Love doesn't die. Love is unyielding. It's going to come back. The more you love and appreciate yourself, the more prepared you are when the real thing shows up."
— Jill Scott
"[To W.R. Hearst:] Love is not always created at the altar. Love doesn't need a wedding ring."
— Marion Davies
"Love doesn't suit the lazy; sometimes it requires strong, precise actions."
— Susanna Tamaro
"True love doesn't consist of holding hands, it consists of holding hearts."
— Orlando Aloysius Battista
"If love doesn't triumph, it ought to. For love is the one thing we have that feels more powerful than even death; the only respite from life's wretched absurdity. The magic of love is not that it contains all the answers, it's that it eliminates the need for so many pressing questions. For love makes us feel like gods
and that's what we're really after, isn't it?"
— Jonathan Hull
"You're in a relationship because you need help, but that's not necessarily why you should be in a relationship. And that's skinny. It doesn't have weight. Skinny love doesn't have a chance because it's not nourished."
— Justin Vernon
"The perspective of Love doesn't leave anybody out. Until your vision and compassion is big enough to include those who oppose you, you are simply contributing to the continuation of destructiveness . The end of separation is the salvation for all."
— Adyashanti
"Love doesn't necessarily mean bless or agree with, it means sacrifice for and suffer with."
— Ann Voskamp
"We are here to love, not to judge. I'd been blaming and raging. I certainly wasn't loving my daughter that afternoon as God loves me. God's love doesn't insist on perfection or even good common sense. Why then should I demand more of those I love? With this tiny change in perspective I began to see the need for correction wasn't in my daughter, but in me."
— Susan L. Taylor
"Being in love doesn't mean loving."
— Fyodor Dostoevsky
"The only thing that's real in any universe [is] that brilliant fire of Love that burns to the exclusion of everything else. As we recognize the presence of Love, we break through the wall of grief that would try to convince us that the dear soul with whom we have learned and loved so much no longer exists, or that she or he cannot speak with us. There is no wall that Love cannot vaporize. We may believe in death, Love doesn't."
— Richard Bach
"If you want the love of the people, stop running after it. The more you chase it, the more it escapes you. Love doesn't come from the people. It comes from God."
— Yasmin Mogahed

Pro-life issues are the 'untold story' of 2010 midterm elections
Washington D.C., Oct 26, 2010 / 04:10 am
While media pundits have focused on economic issues as key in the 2010 U.S. elections, pro-life leaders say abortion is the "untold story" in politics this year. Pro-life concerns determined the victor in many primary races, while opposition to taxpayer-funded abortion in the health care bill is important to many voters.
Americans United for Life (AUL) vice president for communications Matthew Faraci said there is a "convergence" of economic and pro-life issues in the issue of taxpayer-funded abortion.
"Seven out of ten voters are opposed," he told CNA, citing a Quinnipiac poll.
In his view, the Republican Party's pledge to make permanent the Hyde Amendment restrictions on abortion funding makes the pro-life cause prominent "like it hasn't been in a long time."
The Susan B. Anthony List aims to play a role in dozens of races. SBA List president Marjorie Dannenfelser challenged the claim that economic issues are really the deciding factor in the election.
"The people that are saying that the loudest are pundits and folks inside the beltway and in the boardroom of major papers," she commented. "(Political commentator) Dick Morris is usually a pretty brilliant guy, but he's saying some pretty stupid stuff right now. And it shows to me that he just hasn't looked at it very closely yet."
"The truth is that economic issues are an overriding concern in every household in America, but it's also true that people can think about more than one issue at a time, and so should leaders," she told CNA. "This House of Representatives is likely to be among the most pro-life in history. That means it matters."
Being the most pro-life primary candidate has been pivotal in states such as New Hampshire and California "of all places."
"It's the big untold story," Dannenfelser said. "To have been pro-choice would have been a killer."
Noting that record-high primary turnout should carry over into the general election, she claimed that the pro-life vote might be "decisive" in close elections.
She noted four Senate races could place pro-life women in the Senate: Carly Fiorina in California, Sharron Angle in Nevada, Christine O'Donnell in Delaware and Kelly Ayotte in New Hampshire. All are Republicans.
The SBA List is also seeking to achieve an "historic moment" of having strongly committed pro-life governors. It favors Arizona's incumbent Gov. Jan Brewer, New Mexico's Susan Martinez, Oklahoma's Mary Fallin, and South Carolina's Nikki Haley – again, all Republicans.
The pro-life group is also targeting pro-life Democrats who voted in favor of the health care legislation. This drew criticism from Kristen Day, president of Democrats for Life of America (DFLA).
Day said a majority of Americans believe in "the sanctity of life" and people are supporting pro-life beliefs even in times of economic distress.
"This is particularly true in areas where the citizens are naturally Democratic because of their values of economic fairness for everyone, such as Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania. That is why these areas are being targeted by the Republican Party with the aid of Republican pro-life groups which could cause pro-life advocates to lose some of our strongest voices within the Democratic Party.
"Good for Republicans, bad for the pro-life movement," she told CNA.
Day said it was "vitally important" for Democratic pro-life congressmen to retain their seats so that the pro-life movement remains bipartisan and effective and does not become "a wedge issue to win elections." She characterized 2010 as a "watershed year" because of the passage of the Pregnant Women Support Act and the health care legislation that guaranteed health insurance coverage for children and pregnant women while in her view prohibiting taxpayer funded abortion.

The SBA List holds that the health care legislation funds abortions. It is running billboards against pro-life Democrats characterizing their vote for health care as a vote for abortion funding. Backers of an Ohio congressman have filed a complaint in Ohio charging that the claim is false. As of Oct. 25, the claims against SBA List were allowed to move forward by federal judge Timothy Black.
Dannenfelser told CNA many of these candidates had initially agreed with the SBA List that adding pro-life restrictions to the bill was "the most important vote since Roe v. Wade." They later changed their minds.
She claimed it was "politically impotent" to react to a vote for the health care bill by "politically rolling over and praying for breadcrumbs."
"You don't see unions behaving like that, you don't see the NRA behaving like that. Any movement worth its salt doesn't behave like that."
Dannenfelser told CNA that Rep. Dan Lipinski, a pro-life Democrat from Illinois, should be the new standard-bearer for pro-lifers in his party. He resisted party leaders to vote against the health care legislation.
"He's not someone who will cave at the last minute. We want to put wind behind his sails," Dannenfelser said.
Faraci said that this election cycle is the first time AUL Action is participating. It plans to be "very focused" and "very effective" in its tactics. Its ads are active in twelve races, targeting candidates who "supported taxpayer funded abortion as established in the health care law" in districts where the life issue is of particular importance.

"A lot of them ran as pro-life," he said of the candidates, commenting that claims that the law does not fund abortion are "just incorrect."
Asked about the wisdom of targeting pro-life Democrats, he said that a bipartisan pro-life presence is "absolutely" necessary for the long-term success of the movement. However, he explained that AUL Action had made it clear to congressmen that the vote on the health care bill was "extremely important."
"If they didn't stick to their pro-life principles, we were going to hold them accountable," Faraci commented. "I think you will find, after the mid-term elections, that life counts when it comes to elections."

Massage therapist was great. Staff was very friendly.
The therapist, Sharon was great! Very sweet and knowledgeable, and the office staff was awesome!
The pressure was not good and felt that the gal had a routine but ran out of routine before my time was up. She felt the knots but didn't try to work them out. Most procedures seemed loosely done - just routine but without purpose.
My therapist Simone is very professional and thorough. My massages are most enjoyable when I have the same therapist each time.
I had an amazing session with Shelly. On top of a great facial and neck massage she was very helpful on helping me out with a plan for a skin care regiment.
Shelley is always great with my skincare services. Always knows what my skin needs, and how it'll benefit me!

Estonia in the EU
Foreign Ministry Recommends Avoiding Travel to Egypt's Big Cities, With Exception of Red Sea Resort Areas
Due to the uncertain and potentially changing security situation in Egypt, the Foreign Ministry recommends avoiding travel to Cairo, Alexandria, Suez, Luxor, and other major cities. The situation in the resort areas along the Red Sea is peaceful and no major violence has occurred there. Estonian tourists should adhere to the regulations and recommendations issues by travel agencies and the local authorities.
On 11 February, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak announced his resignation. The military has taken over power and promised to start implementing reforms. Exact measures are being announced gradually over time.
Foreign Minister Urmas Paet stated that the security situation in Egypt is calming down. "During the last few days there have been no attacks on foreigners. However, there have been demonstrations in institutions and businesses related to demands for better pay and working conditions, and the economic effect of the crisis can be felt all over Egypt," he said.
Paet added that considering the significant impact that developments in Egypt have on other Middle Eastern and Northern African countries, it is important that the nation takes a peaceful path towards reforms and free elections.
For citizens currently in Egypt, the Foreign Ministry recommends adhering to the curfew being implemented in big cities from 00.00-06.00 and to be aware of any relevant announcements. The Foreign Ministry also continues to recommend that Estonian citizens avoid any public gatherings.
The Foreign Ministry is monitoring the situation in Egypt and can provide advice to travellers if necessary. Consular aid can be reached around the clock at the number +372 53 01 9999.

The delaPORTAL project began development in 1999 as a stand-alone document management system. As users' needs grew, a secured portal was wrapped around the product to support inclusion of an ever expanding list of optional modules. Using experience gained while working with Kickfire (a CRM portal company), we built a product utilizing the best combinations of security, features and scalibilty. Feedback from customers such as Sun Microsystems and Avon products provided the valuable input to create a rich feature set with superb ease of use. We have secured two of the weakest links in interent security by eliminating the need for FTP file transfers to document management, and bringing all email internal to the portal using web based email in a database environment. To restrict employees time playing on the internet via instant messengers, we have included a portal based IM client that is intra-company only, thereby allowing your IT staff to lock down your firewalls.
