CURLING GOLD: "Two days ago it was unlikely," NBC's Jason Knapp said as the American men's curling team clinched a gold medal . "Now it is undeniable." How unlikely? The team had lost four of its first six games in South Korea but got hot at the right time. NBC replayed the late-night victory Saturday afternoon and team members visited with daytime host Rebecca Lowe in the network studio. John Shuster spoke movingly of overcoming past failures to win with a brilliant late-game throw. "I just decided my story wasn't going to end this way," he said. Bleary-eyed, five team members returned later for a talk with Mike Tirico that ended with an ovation from NBC's backstage crew.
SKATING GALA: Nice touch for NBC to assign Scott Hamilton to the skating gala. He's been nothing but class since losing the top commentator role to Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir.
MASS START? Mass confusion. The final speedskating competition was a crowded race called the mass start that left us baffled. Tom Hammond and Joey Cheek needed to explain the race's rules before it started. What is a sprint lap and why do you get points for it? What is the strategy involved?
BOBSLED HISTORY: John Morgan is going to need a few weeks to catch his breath after the bobsled competition. A tie for silver in the four-man race? "We're witnessing history here!" he said. The "house of speed has had us on the edge of our seats for every race," he said. Come to think of it, the "house of speed" should be renamed the "house of excitement." Meanwhile, it will be the last bobsled most of Morgan's viewers see for four years.
BACK IN TIME: As the competition winds down, NBC rolls out some of its prepared features. On Saturday afternoon, a Rob Lowe-narrated film told the story of the men's and women's figure skating competition at the Calgary Olympics in 1988 and, most interestingly, what happened to the participants since then. Serena Williams will narrate a film on 1968 on Sunday afternoon.
YOU ARE GETTING SLEEPY: Was that a tray of cupcakes on the table in front of Tirico, or are we just getting delusional?
RATINGS: NBC did not have a viewership estimate available for Friday night's telecast. The overnight ratings from the nation's largest markets were the lowest for the games so far. It did, however, estimate that 1.6 million people watched the curling finale, which began at 1:30 a.m. Eastern on Saturday. That means Saturday was an early night to bed for a lot of people in Minnesota and Wisconsin.

Hello blog-land! I have a quick cute card to share with you today! I've been doing alot of coloring these days and finally turned this one *colored a few days ago* into a card!
TGF stamps are PERFECT for you if you love to color, the faces and hair have so much open area that you can really get in there and practice your technique. I'm still working on black hair, and think i love how it turned out:) I used my "C" copics, a whole range of them!
The striped dp is Webster's Pages and the dotted paper is Scarlet Jewel Bitty Dot paper by PTI. The cardstock base is also SJ, as is the ribbon! The sentiment is from Up, Up, and Away sentiments by PTI.
Also, can't get enough of the Prima crystals, those flourishes just go with ANY card!
Well that's all from me today! It's gotta be an early night, have a PT test in the morning!
You heard it! The Greeting Farm is having a huge release on July 1st, that's only 3 days away! There are 3 new Critters and 5 new Chibi's so you want to make sure to check out the TGF Blog for all the sneak peeks, one lucky lady (or dude, if you're out there!) will be winning all five of the Chibi's!
I have one of the three new critter's to introduce you to today, Sailor Seal!
How cute is he? And balancing cupcakes (and not *accidentally* dropping one in his mouth!), this guy is talented! LOL! I just love his little scarf and hat too, totally cute! I colored him in with Copics and then, using the Out of the Box technique, cut it out with my circle nesties. The sentiment is from Cupcake Affair by Verve, and the paper is Report Card by OA.
Ready for more inspiration? We have lots for you!
The Greeting Farm has TONS of previews to bring you all week long, so be sure to stop by every day this week between the TGF Blog and Club Anya & Friends to see what's on the horizon...JULY 1st is coming VERY soon and we are PUMPED!
One of the cards I created today was for this weeks Viva la Verve sketch challenge. You can see the sketch and inspiration pictures HERE! We'd love you to play along with us, Verve stamps are NOT required to play!
I used the yellow and green room as my inspiration. The colors I used are Lemon Tart and Spring Moss by PTI. I also threw some Prima flowers and pearls on the card, LOVE the way it turned out!
Isn't that verve awesome? Great for a friend who needs a little support or pick-me-up!
Note to self: buy more Prima flourishes! These are so fun!

There will be a full list of the Diva's participating on the Verve Blog so if you come across a break in the chain, you can find your way from there:) One lucky hopper will win the ENTIRE RELEASE so spread the love as you hop along!
Okay, well I have a couple cards to share with you today! I have LOVED this month's releases so I've been a busy girl in the craft room!
The fonts Julee used this month are SO FUN! Seriously, isn't that the coolest font? Love it! The papers are all by PTI (Hawaiian Shores, Pure Poppy, White, Beautiful Blooms dp). I stamped the sentiment on a luggage tag I got from Mish Mash's Etsy store. I adhered some dp to the tag to break up the white space, we all know I have a problem with too much white space, lol! Love this sentiment, it's perfect for an every day "thinking of you" card to a sympathy card if you need one. I also did a little faux stitching on this one because I'd already added my ribbon before I realized I wanted to sew on it! Oh well, faux to the rescue!
These butterflies are seriously the most beautiful butterflies ever. They're flowy and gorgeous! AND fun to color:) I put the small and large butterfly stamps on a block and stamped them together in Espresso ink and then colored them in with my Copics. The paper is from Thrift Shop by OA. The cardstock is Kiwi Kiss (SU!) and Vintage Cream (PTI).
Okay, one last card for today, using this weeks' SFYTT by Jen! For this card, I used my favorite stamp set of the release, American Hero!
Oh yeah, and Cheeky Mate by TGF! LOL! I just thought they'd go together SUPER cute and they do:) I colored her up to be in Air Force blues, because, well...I'm in the Air Force and it only seemed right! Don't you love the sentiment? Those stars are in American Hero as well. There are three star designs and they're ALL gorgeous!
Caffinated Cropper Hop-Pocket Full of Sunshine!
Today, the Caffinated Cropper DT has some artwork to share using the June CC kit, Pocket Full of Sunshine! This is a super fun, bright, and cheerful kit! You'll adore it, just like I do!
I could probably count the number of times I've used BRIGHT yellow on a card, on ONE hand! I am not normally drawn to bright yellow; however, the papers and elements in this kit work together SO well that Amy actually made yellow look AWESOME! EVERYTHING you see on this card is from the June kit, except for the Kraft cardstock (PTI). And obviously I need more practice sewing around corners, haha!! I think it gives it a "home-made" feel, don't you? LOL!
The other girls have more eye candy in store for you, so hop on to SHERRY's sweet blog to see what she stamped up for you!
If you encounter a hiccup on the hop here is a list of the order of the hop today!
Thanks so much for stopping by today! Enjoy your Friday, yipppeee!

The fabulous Cindy Haffner created our FFF sketch for this week and you will love it! It's one of those "go-to" sketches that would work so well with ANY stamps, and leaves alot of room for interpretation! Being the military girl that I am, I stuck with the "rules" lol!
And here's my take on it, using the sweetest digi ever, Dance Fever!
Now you have to check out the rest of the girls! See the Farmers on the TGF blog and the Critter Crew below!
I wanted to do a little stamping tonight, so I decided to play with Mercy's Tuesday Sketch for this week. I had so much fun with this one, she always has the best sketch designs!
I've had this PTI set on my desk for a couple days now, and I can't stop using it. Isn't it funny how you have a set for a year or so and finally use it and fall head over heels in love? That's what happened with this set, Wishing You. I adore it!
I stamped the tulips and grass on Taylored Expressions Choice Buttercream cardstock (oh this stuff is awesome!). The tulips are stamped in Cherry Cobbler by SU! and the stems are stamped in Momento Bamboo Leaves and Always Artichoke (SU!). The buttons and ribbon are Scarlett Jewel by PTI and the pretty dsp is by October Afternoon!
Thanks for stopping by today, don't forget the Verve release is right around the corner! Sneaks start on Wednesday on the Verve Blog with the release party on Friday night! See ya there!!
Here I am, 2 days late with my sample for this week's VLV challenge! I'm kinda crazy about this card though! I love the colors, which I drew from the Jungle theme room. See THIS THREAD on Splitcoast for the challenge rules and photos! Verve Stamps are NOT required to play along so come on over and hang with us!
Also, because I'm me, I had to add buttons! I'm sorry if this makes it too girly, but my dad will love it anyways, lol! He HAS to, I'm his daughter! Aren't they supposed to tell us we did a good job, no matter how crappy it really is? Hahaha!
Isn't it phenomenal??? LOVE it!
I used Cosmo Cricket DeLovely papers and some of my favorite Verve stamps--Up, Up, and Away and Sweet on You.

Do not consider this home! My mom lost her finger [removed]. I'm heartbroken that this happened in this home.


Since finishing our thru-hike in late October, that has been us. Other than two specific scheduled events, we have been floating, planning our travels no more than a few days in advance at most.
Since late November we have been mainly in Germany, but also in Belgium visiting friends and seeing the sights. We are thankful to have such a vast network of friends who are willing to let us couch surf and take time out of their busy schedules to show us around.
We arrived in Germany just in time for our favorite part of the year, Weinachtsmarkt (Christmas Market) season. We made sure to attend a few.
One unfortunate impact on all of these markets was the weather. It has been unseasonably warm, which really impacts the feel of the market. It's a different experience to drink hot glühwein when it's 12°C (55°F) than it is when it's -2°C (28°F). For those markets that had skating rinks, the skaters were moving through puddles and pools more than they were gliding.
But please don't take any of that as a complaint. We recognized that we were spending our December in Christmas Markets in Europe. It's very difficult to top that.

DID KENNEDYS KILL JFK MINISERIES?
January 10, 2011 by admin · Leave a Comment
Members of the Kennedy family including Caroline Kennedy, the daughter of former President John F. Kennedy, and Maria Shriver, niece of JFK, put pressure on the History Channel to kill an expensive eight-part miniseries that it planned to air in the spring, the Hollywood Reporter said Saturday. According to the Reporter, which first reported History Channel's decision to remove the show from its schedule, Caroline Kennedy and Shriver had lobbied Anne Sweeney, who heads Disney/ABC Television Group, while Shriver, a former NBC News anchor, had also argued against it with NBC Universal executives Jeff Zucker and Jeff Gaspin. Disney and NBCU are, along with Hearst Corp., co-owners of the History Channel. When the script for the miniseries was originally leaked a year ago, it was denounced by former Kennedy aide Theodore Sorensen, who said of it, "Every single conversation with the president in the Oval Office or elsewhere in which I, according to the script, participated, never happened." History Channel executives insisted at the time that the leaked script was only in the formative stage and that it would be vetted for historical accuracy. In its statement on Saturday, the channel called the miniseries a "dramatic interpretation [that] is not fit for the History brand." It declined to discuss its decision any further.

Ques. How is Mechanical Engineering at Sastra University?
● Top Answer By Son Pal Sisodia on 30 Oct 21
Ans. One of my friends studied at SASTRA University. According to him, Mechanical engineering is pretty good when placements are considered. The overall academics and curriculum are average. The faculty are highly experienced but are very few in number. Students interested in Research are provided appropriate guidance and backup for it. Intra and Inter-departmental technical festivals also are conducted. Mechanical Engineering students have their labs dedicated to their department. Students take part in events conducted by SAE which make a real good addition to your resume. Categories Mechanical Engineering at SASTRA University Course Fee 6.20 lakh Placement Percentage 90% Highest CTC 15 LPA Average CTC 6 LPA Lowest CTC 3.5 LPA Recruiting Companies PayPal, Mu Sigma, TCS, L&T, etc. Though ECE is said to be the most sought after department in SASTRA University, when placements, faculty and course curriculum is considered. But Mechanical also does not lag behind.Read more

Ques. Is NIT Puducherry for ECE better than IIITDM Kancheepuram for mechanical?
● Top Answer By Sakshi Gupta on 25 Oct 21
Ans. Opt for IIITDM Kancheepuram for Mechanical rather than ECE at NIT Puducherry. Here are some reasons as to why I feel so. Faculty: The faculty members at IIITDM Kancheepuram are highly experienced, some of them even have PhDs from the top IITs. At NIT Puducherry the faculty are not that experienced and are also few in number. Infrastructure: IIITDM Kancheepuram's campus is excellent and appropriate for an educational institution. NIT Puducherry is still functioning from the temporary campus due to construction on the main site. Placements: NIT Puducherry is only known for its placement opportunities provided to its IT students. The rest of the department receives average placement offers. But IIITDM Kancheepuram provides great placements and maintains that record every year. Categories Mechanical Engineering at IIITDM Kancheepuram ECE at NIT Puducherry Course Fee 5.25 lakh 5.49 lakh Placement Percentage 75% 65% Highest CTC 10 LPA 15 LPA Average CTC 7 LPA 4 LPA Recruiting Companies Saint Gobain, L&T, Adobe, Zentrum Labs, etc. Emphasis, Capgemini, L&T, Mu Sigma, etc. Therefore, IIITDM Kancheepuram will be a better choice as here you can excel in your studies, get clear concepts about every topic. You will also receive industry-oriented and research-oriented teachings.Read more
Ques. Is it worthy to join Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata for Mechanical Engineering?
● Top Answer By Aaditya Hari Nair on 13 Oct 21
Ans. If you have any plan to choose mechanical engineering then avoid any of the colleges in West Bengal. JU, IIT KGP, IIEST, and NIT Durgapur these colleges are excluded. Considering all provided facilities by the Heritage Institution which includes well-maintained labs and amazing faculties. Even then it is not recommended for Mechanical Engineering as the placement isn't up to the expectations. But if we look at other branches like CS, ECE, IT or Electrical these courses have comparatively better placements. Moreover, you may experience the same in other colleges as well, which include Techno, IEM, etc. Thus, it is recommended to make a choice at other institutes like VIT or SRM for Mechanical Engineering.

Ques. What is the level of placement in a mechanical branch of LNCT Bhopal? Will it be better to do mechanical engineering from it?
● Top Answer By Aaditya Hari Nair on 23 Sept 21
Ans. Mechanical Engineering is an evergreen branch and considering the placement rate of LNCT, which is 75-80%, it hardly provides any placements to the mechanical branch students. It means the mechanical branch students don't have the core placements. In the year 2020, there were 3-4 companies that came to the campus for the core placements and took a very less number of students. Therefore, there are very few placement opportunities for a mechanical branch student in LNCT Bhopal. There are either no core placements or else the Institute will ask students to apply for the marketing companies and get a placement in that domain. But then, if a student is good with the skill set and has good abilities, prepare for the exams like GATE, ONGC. It will help him/her in the future.Read more
Ques. How good is Dayanand Sagar College of Engineering for a BE in mechanical engineering?
Ans. Yes, Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering is good for Mechanical Engineering. Be it faculty, labs, department, infrastructure, branch, or any other aspect, the college is a perfect fit. The only disadvantage of DSCE Bangalore is that it doesn't provide any offers from core companies. The students of the mechanical branch end up getting a job in the IT sector. If any core job offers are available, these companies will only hire students in single digit. Companies like Accenture, Cognizant, Infosys, and Tech Mahindra hire students irrespective of the branches. If a job in the IT sector suits you after graduating from the mechanical branch, then you can opt for Dayanand Sagar College for Engineering as it is the best college. It will furnish a job but in the IT sector.Read more

North Carolina is a contributory negligence state. This means that if a plaintiff (the injured party) is responsible for his or her own injury in any way, then he or she is not permitted to recover damages for their injuries. It is important to not admit fault during a personal injury suit. It is important to consider how fault will be shown should the case go to trial because that could prove fatal to the case.
No one can guarantee the outcome of a case. If there is an attorney, or anyone, guaranteeing you a result in a case, do not trust that person. Every case is dependent on its own specific circumstances. However, past court decisions and case outcomes can be looked at to try and determine what a judge or jury might decide. Similar cases often yield similar results. While the outcome can by no means be guaranteed, you can try and predict the likelihood of success should you take the case to trial.
Personal injury suits can last months, or even years. There is no set timeline for cases. Complex cases can take longer to settle or go to trial, while less complex cases might make it through the system more quickly. Sometimes, an injured party might have years to wait for a settlement and need the financial help quickly. Each party needs to decide if they will be able to wait the duration of the trial process.
During a lawsuit, each side is gathering information and evidence to use in trial, or for negotiating a settlement. During this process, your attorney will see the evidence against the other party, and any harming evidence of your own, and be able to figure out the strength of your case. Again, there is no guarantee to an outcome, but an experienced attorney will be able to make a prediction of what may happen.
If you are considering filing a personal injury suit, the personal injury attorneys at Arnold & Smith, PLLC are here to help you. We are here to see you through the entire process of a case, whether you decide to settle your case or go to trial. Contact us today for a consultation.

"Ethical Issues in Human Stem Cell Research: Executive Summary" (1999), by the US National Bioethics Advisory Commission
Ethical Issues in Human Stem Cell Research: Executive Summary was published in September 1999 by The US National Bioethics Advisory Commission in response to a national debate about whether or not the US federal government should fund embryonic stem cell research. Ethical Issues in Human Stem Cell Research recommended policy to US President William Clinton's administration, which advocated for federal spending on the use of stem research on stem cells that came from embryos left over from in vitro fertilization (IVF) fertility treatments.

Sindell v. Abbott Laboratories (1980)
Sindell v. Abbott Laboratories was a 1980 California case that established the doctrine of market share liability for personal injury cases. For such liability, when a drug causes personal injury and the manufacturer of the drug cannot be identified, each producer is responsible for paying the settlement in proportion to the percentage of the market they supplied. Judith Sindell and Maureen Rogers brought the case against the producers of diethylstilbestrol (DES), which their mothers had taken during pregnancy to prevent miscarriage and other complications.
Title X Family Planning Program (1970–1977)
The Family Planning Services and Public Research Act of 1970, often called Title X Family Planning Program, is a US federal law that provides federal funding for family planning services to low income or uninsured families. The US federal government passed the law, Public Law 91-572, in 1970 as an amendment to the Public Health Services Act of 1944. The Act created the Office of Population Affairs (OPA) under the Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare (here called the Secretary).

President George W. Bush's Announcement on Stem Cells, 9 August 2001
On 9 August 2001, US President George W. Bush gave an eleven-minute speech from his ranch in Crawford, Texas, on the ethics and fate of federal funding for stem cell research. Bush also announced the creation of a special council to oversee stem cell research. In the speech President Bush acknowledged the importance of issues surrounding stem cell research to many Americans, presented different arguments in favor of and opposing embryonic stem cell research, and explained his decision to limit but not completely eliminate potential federal funding for embryonic stem cell (ESC) research.
The US President's Council on Bioethics (2001-2009)
The US President's Council on Bioethics was an organization headquartered in Washington D.C. that was chartered to advise then US President George W. Bush on ethical issues related to biomedical science and technology. In November 2001, US President George W. Bush created the President's Council on Bioethics (PCB). Convened during a nationwide cloning and embryonic stem cell research debate, the Council stated that it worked to address arguments about ethics from many different perspectives.

In re Marriage of Witten (2003)
In re Marriage of Witten, decided by the Iowa Supreme Court in 2003, held that neither Tamera nor Arthur (Trip) Witten could use or destroy several cryopreserved preembryos created during their marriage using in vitro fertilization (IVF), unless the former couple could reach a mutual agreement. Tamera and Trip Witten, unable to conceive conventionally during their marriage, had attempted to start a family together using IVF at the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) in Omaha, Nebraska.
Doe v. Bolton (1973)
In the 1973 court case Doe v. Bolton, the US Supreme Court in Washington, D.C., ruled that a Georgia law regulating abortion was unconstitutional. The Georgia abortion law required women seeking abortions to get approval for the procedure from their personal physician, two consulting physicians, and from a committee at the admitting hospital. Furthermore, under the statutes, only women who had been raped, whose lives were in danger from the pregnancy, or who were carrying fetuses likely to be seriously, permanently malformed were permitted to receive abortions.
In re Agent Orange Product Liability Litigation (1979-1984)
In the legal case In re Agent Orange Product Liability Litigation of the early 1980s, US military veterans of the Vietnam War sued the US chemical companies that had produced the herbicide Agent Orange, and those companies settled with US veterans out of court. Agent Orange contains dioxin, a chemical later shown to disrupt the hormone system of the body and to cause cancer. As veterans returned to the US from Vietnam, scientists further confirmed that exposure to Agent Orange caused a variety of cancers in veterans and developmental problems in the veterans' children.
United States v. University Hospital (1984)
The US 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals' 1984 decision United States v. University Hospital, State University Hospital of New York at Stony Brook set a significant precedent for affirming parental privilege to make medical decisions for handicapped newborns, while limiting the ability of the federal government to intervene. The ruling stemmed from the 1983 case involving an infant born with severe physical and mental congenital defects; the infant was only identified as Baby Jane Doe.
Hodgson v. Minnesota (1990)
In the 1990 case Hodgson v. Minnesota, the US Supreme Court in Washington, D.C., upheld Minnesota statute 144.343, which required physicians to notify both biological parents of minors seeking abortions forty-eight hours prior to each procedure. The US Supreme Court determined that a state could legally require physicians to notify both parents of minors prior to performing abortions as long as they allowed for a judicial bypass procedure, in which courts could grant exceptions. The Supreme Court's decision in Hodgson v.
Beal v. Doe (1977)
In the case of Beal v. Doe, tried in 1977, the US Supreme Court ruled that states could constitutionally restrict money from Medicaid from funding elective abortions. After the 1973 case Roe v. Wade, in which the US Supreme Court had ruled women have the rights to terminate pregnancies within the first trimester, the state of Pennsylvania passed legislation that restricted the use of Medicaid funds for abortion procedures. In 1977, several Medicaid eligible women who were unable to receive coverage for a non-therapeutic abortion brought a case against Frank S.
Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (1994)
On 26 May 1994, US President Bill Clinton signed the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act in to law, which federally criminalized acts of obstruction and violence towards reproductive health clinics. The law was a reaction to the increasing violence toward abortion clinics, providers, and patients during the 1990s. That violence included clinic blockades and protests, assaults on physicians and patients, and murders. The Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act established
Griswold v. Connecticut (1965)
The landmark Supreme Court case, Griswold v. Connecticut (1965), gave women more control over their reproductive rights while also bringing reproductive and birth control issues into the public realm and more importantly, into the courts. Bringing these issues into the public eye allowed additional questions about the reproductive rights of women, such as access to abortion, to be asked. This court case laid the groundwork for later cases such as Eisenstadt v. Baird (1972) and Roe v. Wade (1973).
Commonwealth v. Luceba Parker [Brief] (1845)
The Court settled the question left open from the case of Commonwealth v. Bangs that it must be proved a woman was "quick with child" in order for abortion prohibitions to have any effect in Massachusetts.
Weber v. Stony Brook Hospital (1983)
The New York Court of Appeals' 1983 case Weber v. Stony Brook set an important precedent upholding the right of parents to make medical decisions for newborns born with severe congenital defects. A pro-life New York attorney, Lawrence Washburn, attempted to legally intervene in the case of Baby Jane Doe, an infant born with disorders. When the infant's parents chose palliative care over intensive corrective surgery, Washburn made repeated attempts to have the New York courts force through the surgery.
California Proposition 71 (2004)
The California Stem Cell Research and Cures Act, also called Proposition 71, was a ballot
initiative proposed by California voters in 2004 to allocate three billion dollars of state
funds for stem cell research over ten years. Endorsed by California scientists and
patient-advocates, Prop 71 passed on 2 November 2004, amending the state constitution to make
stem cell research a constitutional right. In addition, Prop 71 led to the creation of the
California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM), in San Francisco, California to allocate
Sheppard-Towner Maternity and Infancy Protection Act (1921)
In November 1921, US Congress passed the National Maternity and Infancy Protection Act, also called the Sheppard-Towner Act. The Act provided federal funds to states to establish programs to educate people about prenatal health and infant welfare. Advocates argued that it would curb the high infant mortality rate in the US.

Thomson, et al. v. Thompson, et al. was a lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia on 8 May 2001 as Civil Action Number 01-CV-0973. This lawsuit was filed in hopes of gaining injunctive relief against a moratorium on the federal funding of stem cell research. The plaintiffs in the case were seven prominent scientists who performed embryonic stem cell research and three patients: James Thomson, Roger Pedersen, John Gearhart, Douglas Melton, Dan Kaufman, Alan Trounson, Martin Pera, Christopher Reeve, James Cordy, and James Tyree.

Nightlight Christian Adoptions et al. v. Thompson et al. was a lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia on 8 March 2001. The suit was filed because Nightlight Christian Adoptions, a frozen embryo adoption agency, felt that the Guidelines for Research Using Human Pluripotent Stem Cells published by the National Institutes for Health were unlawful and violated the restrictions on human embryo research put into place by the Dickey-Wicker Amendment. Additional plaintiffs with this suit were the Christian Medical Association, adult stem cell researcher Dr.
Planned Parenthood v. Danforth (1976)
On 1 July 1976, the US Supreme Court decided in the case Planned Parenthood v. Danforth that provisions of a Missouri law regulating abortion care were unconstitutional. That law, House Bill 1211, restricted abortion care by requiring written consent for each abortion procedure from the pregnant woman as written consent of the woman's husband if she was married, or the written consent of her parents if she was unmarried and younger than eighteen. House Bill 1211 also required that physicians make efforts to preserve the lives of aborted fetuses.

Profitability and environmental implications when growers transition to best management practices
Poggio, M., Renouf, M. A., Connolly, C. and Thompson, M. (2018) Profitability and environmental implications when growers transition to best management practices. International Sugar Journal, 120 (1437).
Full text not currently attached. Access may be available via the Publisher's website or OpenAccess link.
Best Management Practices (BMPs) have been developed on the basis that they are perceived to be beneficial for production and the environment. However, research that holistically examines the economic and environmental implications of BMP adoption using 'real-farm' case studies is limited. The aim of this work was to evaluate the farm profitability and life cycle environmental implications of BMP adoption by six sugarcane growers in the Wet Tropics region of North Queensland. Economic, biophysical and farm management data before and after BMP adoption were supplied by participating growers and used in the Farm Economic Analysis Tool (FEAT) and Cane Life Cycle Assessment (CaneLCA) tool to determine the farm profitability and environmental implications of BMP changes. Despite variations between farms, the economic benefit or, more specifically, the annualised equivalent benefit, revealed a positive result for all farms ranging between AU$25 and AU$220 per hectare per year, suggesting that the changes toward BMP were economically beneficial for each farming business analysed. BMP adoption also resulted in reduced environmental impacts over the life cycle of sugarcane production, including reductions in potential water quality impacts from nutrients and pesticides, as well as energy use and greenhouse gas emissions. Under some conditions, the degree of economic and environmental benefits were found to be sensitive to increases or reductions in cane yield, and the yield necessary to break-even in terms of annual (economic) benefit was quantified in each case study. Overall, the project findings indicate that BMP implementation in the Wet Tropics can be a win-win for both economic and environmental outcomes. Communication of these findings may give confidence to growers to encourage further adoption, and may promote the industry's efforts to the wider public. The methods employed in the project could be used for further analysis of BMPs in other regions. © 2016 Informa Plc.

Theater, Musicals
Photograph: Matthew Murphy
Theater review by David Cote
Reviewing Miss Saigon is such a political minefield. I don't mean arguing whether the 1989 musical fairly depicts the U.S. war against Communists in Vietnam. Rather, the challenge is to firmly call out Miss Saigon as a heap of Orientalist clichés filtered through 19th-century European melodrama and presented with all the subtlety of a coked-up, steroidal Michael Bay flick—while acknowledging that it provides work for a large number of Asian performers. Damn the show. and actors with too few opportunities lose jobs. You call that woke?
Not that one pan will make much difference. We are talking about a show that ran for a decade in the same venue, whose blend of trash and tragedy thrills tourists and those for whom Sondheim is too wordy and un-hummable. Cats is garbage too, but that slunk back and seems to be doing fine.
Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schönberg's follow-up to Les Misérables is explicitly about the fall of Saigon, but in a larger sense, it's about the fall of the Anglo-European Broadway blockbuster. In terms of musical bombast, visual spectacle and hyperbolic vulgarity, it closed out a sad decade for the serious American musical. With a score heavy on lite rock and anthems, the show may be mostly sung, but it's less a song-and-dance affair in any recognizable sense than it is an '80s summer movie, weighed down with ridiculous special F/X. Of course that means the infamous helicopter, which arrives with fans ruffling the audience's collective hair. (Totie Driver and Matt Kinley's gorgeously cinematic production design is the one triumph here.)
The plot is borrowed from Puccini's Madame Butterfly; the despair and grittiness is on loan from Oliver Stone and Apocalypse Now. Army grunt Chris (Alistair Brammer) falls instantly in love/lust/pity with Kim (Eva Noblezada), a virgin from the country forced into prostitution by a vicious pimp and profiteer known as the Engineer (Jon Jon Briones). Unbeknownst to Chris, his night with Kim results in a baby; he rotates back to the States, and she tries desperately to protect her son in Communist-overrun South Vietnam.
Historically, opera and music theater have mined the "East meets West" trope for works both brilliant (Pacific Overtures), dated but powerful (The King and I) and flawed but needed (Allegiance). Miss Saigon has plenty of pomp and angst, but its war-torn background and violent plot turns are only incidentally interested in South Asian culture or identity. Richard Maltby Jr. and Boublil's lyrics are awfully leaden and generic, and Schönberg churns out predictably pseudo-Asian passages throughout the score—pentatonic patterns, flutes and plucked strings—the musicological equivalent of yellowface.
To be fair, the American figures are just as laughable and flat as their Vietnamese counterparts (let's not forget that Frenchmen wrote this and the British produced it). Les Misérables is also broad and melodramatic, but a better source and greater historical distance mitigates its sanctimonious patches. However, like Les Miz, Miss Saigon is ultimately stranded between extremes of cynicism and idealism: the Engineer's cartoonish hunger for American-style excess versus Kim's bland, maternal purity. What's lost in between is humanity or ambiguity, songs to tell us more about the characters' past, their quirks or inner nuances. Instead, stereotyped villains and victims shout-sing at each others' face or collapse and bellow, "Nooo!" (twice). Diversity on Broadway should be celebrated, but give actors of color characters we all can care about.
Broadway Theatre. Music by Claude-Michel Schönberg. Lyrics by Richard Maltby Jr. and Alain Boublil. Directed by Laurence Connor. With ensemble cast. Running time: 2hrs 40mins. One intermission. Through Jan 13.

Dogwood Trees | Just Spiff It!
Check out the new panel box that was installed this week in our laundry room. The panel used to be in the family room of all places and there were two of them?? Now everything is in one panel. One huge panel. 40 inches tall huge!! I was not visually prepared for the size and it really messes up my plan for the cabinets on that wall. It's time to get creative!!
I survived the first full week of our remodel! And our contractor had not returned to the hospital with chest pains!
The wall is ready for drywall now that the electrical outlets were placed over the weekend.
The front part of the wall being drywalled will be bookshelves with a mounted television.
While work is going on in our family room, there is also demo work going on in the living room and kitchen.
We are making our house a more open floor plan.
We are making an entrance into the kitchen on both sides of the fireplace with a barrel ceiling.
Our home was built in 1966………evidently that was a closet next to the fireplace. A very small closet. Later on there was a remodel and they just drywalled over the closet. I wish we knew the original owners of this house. I would love to see any photos they may have .
On a brighter note, we are still enjoying the vivid colors of Spring here in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I know I must say this each year but I think this is the prettiest Spring ever. I just never, ever take for granted the splendor of Spring. Case in point is the dogwoods. Oh my! I love them so. Their canopy is of the most delicate flower. Why doesn't it last longer?? Unfortunately we only have one that is in our front yard. They prefer to display their glory in filtered shade. Ours is located under a very large oak tree.
Here it is just with a tiny little bud. Look closely – I am just in awe of the bud and then what it becomes. God has his hand on everything – all for our enjoyment!!!
They actually stayed like buds for several days then one day they popped open into this lovely lime green color.
This was when it rained for a solid week. Thank you Lord – we needed it! Look at that flower – is it not a work of art?? The blossom is just slowly unfolding. I love the hot pink tips. There is one rain drop just holding on for dear life.
And over night this happens. They go from a greenish color to this white. The pink tips almost look like they had a match held to them.
I was taking these photos around 7 am yesterday- and look who greeted me! And the whole time I was taking photos this squirrel was fussing at me!! This cute squirrel is not cute to us anymore. She has made her a a squirrel door like a lot of dogs have dog doors. Except her squirrel door is a shingle on our roof that she lifts up and scampers in our attic – right in our face. She is a squirrel with an attitude! Obviously she is a "mama squirrel" finding the best nursery for her babes!!! Just wish it was not OUR attic!!
Thanks for visiting Just Spiff it!! I would love to hear your comments!!

2010 Business of the Year: Peconic Landing life care facility
RANDEE DADDONA PHOTO | In celebration of Older Americans Month, Peconic Landing in Greenport held their annual May Mile and 5 K Race. Over 400 people pregistered and the day benefited The Greenport Fire Department who were presented a check for $22,700.00.
Twenty years ago there was a huge hole in the ground behind an empty and neglected mansion on the north side of Main Road in Greenport.
With approvals in place for 350 condominiums, the property owners were busy digging out an artificial pond. Critics saw it as a scam, suggesting that the pond was little more than a commercial sand mine.
Perhaps the critics were correct, for when the digging stopped so did the entire condo project.
A drive through the Soundfront property today offers an entirely different view. The mansion, Brecknock Hall, has been restored to its former glory. There are indeed condos behind it, but also cottages, apartments and senior citizen health and social facilities, the combination of which is not found anywhere else on eastern Long Island.
That bothersome hole in the ground has become the Peconic Landing life care facility. The $124 million project opened in 2002.
Employing more than 200 people and generating $1.2 million in annual property taxes, most of that going to Greenport School District, Peconic Landing has become a powerful and smoothly running economic engine locally. But the dollars and cents tell only part of the story.
Management, staff and residents are active members of the community, financially generous and freely giving of their time and talents. It's a unique place playing a unique role — and so it has earned the title of The Suffolk Times' Business of the Year.
"I'm in full agreement," said Paul Connor III, president and CEO of Eastern Long Island Hospital, which has a close relationship with Peconic Landing. "That's a great choice."
In its role as a health care provider, Peconic Landing consistently wins high marks from the various regulatory agencies that oversee its operation, said Mr. Connor. As a life care facility, Peconic Landing offers those 62 and older the full spectrum of health care, from assisted living to an on-site nursing home. Residents buy their cottages or apartments.
"It all points to an organization that's focused on its community and residents and continues to achieve high levels of service," Mr. Connor added.
When the facility was first proposed, former Greenport School superintendent Charles Kozora was deeply concerned about the potential tax impacts. Facilities with not-for-profit status often generate little to no tax revenues.
But long before Dr. Kozora retired in 2009, Peconic Landing had become one of the largest individual contributors of school tax funds, now generating just under $750,000 a year.
In addition to the economic impact, "They've brought in a highly educated populace and are very supportive of education," said Dr. Kozora. One of many examples is the community's donation of free dictionaries to every Greenport third-grader during the past five years.
"I can't say enough about them," Dr. Kozora said. "They're just wonderful and a delight to share time with."
He'll get no argument on that from Greenport Mayor David Nyce.
Peconic Landing has annually contributed profits from its May Mile run-walk event to Greenport Fire Department.
"At every turn, from their board of directors to the residents, they have been extremely helpful and a great neighbor to the village all the way through," said the mayor. "They're a fantastic neighbor and a magnificent resource for the entire community."
