Impact On Unemployment On Standard Of Living

If unemployment rises in a country, will its standard of living necessarily decline?

Unemployment refers to the condition and extent of joblessness within an economy, and is measured in terms of the unemployment rate, which is the number of unemployed workers divided by the total civilian labor force.

Budget Reloading for your Shotgun: The Lee Load-All II

If you're anything like me, you'll look for ways to save some money on you're shooting hobbies so you can do more of it, more of the time. One thing that I've done to save some dough for years now is reloading. I've been reloading centerfire cartridges since about 1990 and shotgun for the last 2 years. I had decided to reload shot shells when I started really getting into skeet and sporting clays, burning through 200 to 300 rounds per week. Even with the Kmart 100 round specials, it really starts to add up. Just as important as the cost savings is that fact you can work up lighter loads for your shotgun sport of choice, saving your shoulder in the process. So, once I decided to pull the trigger on shotgun reloading gear, I set to work doing some research online to see what I needed and what I wanted to get.

If you're setting out to look for reloading equipment yourself, you're basically going to find reloaders from Hornady, RCBS, MEC, Dillion, Lee and Spolar. They vary from single-stage reloaders, to progressive reloaders. The single stage is one that you have to move a single shell from station to station until it is finished before loading another shell. Progressive presses allow you to load multiple shells, with each being at a different station, and also a different stage of the reloading process, thus being able to load multiple shells at once. That's really the major difference in single stage versus progressive presses. Obviously you can knock out shells faster with a progressive, but the cost of entry for a progressive press is much higher. When I went on my search 2 years ago, I really had a limited budget and wanted to get started reloading as soon as possible, leaving me without many choices. It didn't take very long online before I ran into the Lee Load-All II.

Cookies Crumbles Recipes: Bullboar Sausages


I was watching the Food Lovers Guide on SBS last night and saw this recipe. I decided that it was time for me to have a go at making more sausages and these sounded pretty nice. They are a 50/50 combination of beef mince and pork mince with red wine and some spices. I have an electric mincer and used some chuck steak and a pork shoulder for the meat because there is a little bit of fat in the meat but not too much.

Even if your best friend has had a major publishing house and could help you in your writing, this does not guarantee the success of your book. First, you need to write a quality book that is clearly a specific audience. Your book has to solve a common problem and / or have a large audience. But then you must develop a marketing plan and stick to it for at least two years.

Abused & Neglected Children Around The Nation

With reduced funding to manage the increased calls coming in from the community distress that results from the poverty and chaos from our declining economy, social service agencies are becoming unable to respond adequately to the calls they are receiving.

Caseloads were too high before the downturn, & funding from non profits and governmental agencies has been significantly reduced, leaving more dysfunctional families & their abused and neglected children without help.

The future holds more and bigger juvenile detention centers, jails, and prisons until this trend reverses & our communities grasp the wisdom of investing in youth.

The rest of this article is a compilation of recent updates on how states from around the nation are managing troubled families and their abused and neglected children;

Child abuse cases climb across Iowa

Child abuse cases climb across Iowa
By CHARLOTTE EBY, Globe Gazette Des Moines Bureau

DES MOINES — Iowa child abuse cases were up in 2009, reversing a two-year decline, according to figures released Wednesday by the Iowa Department of Human Services.

Officials reported an 11 percent increase in both the reports of abuse and the findings of abuse or neglect. They cited the down economy as a likely contributing factor to the rise in cass.

In North Iowa, however, the number of cases in 2009, though up slightly from 2008, are still significantly lower than the numbers from 2005 through 2007.

There were a total of 1,377 cases reported in North Iowa in 2009. Of those 374 were determined to be founded.

That's up from 1,226 cases reported and 369 founded in 2008, increases of 9 percent and 1.4 percent respectively.

But the number of cases reported in North Iowa counties in 2007 was 2,033, and the number of cased founded was 715.

Individual North Iowa county totals are in the chart on Page A1.

Heightened awareness of child abuse and high-profile cases may have contributed to the increases noted statewide, according to experts.

"There's definitely more stress on families because of the economy, and so we think that has some impact, and this probably is the only logical thing right now to point to," said DHS Director Charles Krogmeier.

Officials say domestic violence and substance abuse remain the main risk factors for children.

In 2009, investigators completed 25,814 assessments for child abuse or neglect, up 11 percent from 2008.

Those complaints or "intakes" typically come from a hotline, school officials, medical personnel or law enforcement.

"We're getting more reports and investigating more," Krogmeier said.

Roughly two-thirds of those investigations showed no abuse occurred. A total of 7,011 were founded abuse cases last year involving 10,148 children, compared to 6,141 founded cases in 2008. Founded abuse cases topped 7,900 in 2006.

The biggest share of abuse cases were the denial or critical care or neglect, which made up 81 percent. These types of cases commonly involve parents who are impaired by drug use or mental incapacity, officials said.

Physical abuse cases made up 9.3 percent of abuse cases. A majority of the children in abuse cases were 5 years old or younger.

Krogmeier said the number of workers who complete the assessments remains about the same number as last year despite budget cuts.

Some of those workers are expected to participate in an early retirement program offered to state workers this year, but Krogmeier said they expect to be able to fill those positions. He said they would continue to try to target resources to child protection efforts.

State Rep. Renee Schulte, R-Cedar Rapids, said the increasing numbers of abuse cases could not have come at a worse time. Lawmakers are still grappling with budget constraints as the state faces declining revenues.

Schulte is concerned an early retirement program for state workers would mean about one-third of frontline child abuse workers have the potential to retire.

"We're already short and already not having enough people to get it done," Schulte said.

— Bob Steenson of the Globe Gazette added to this report.

Implementing the Permanent Care Assistance Program (03/11/2010)

The new permanency care assistance program, which pays relatives who take permanent custody of a child in state care, is well intended. But due to federal and practical constraints, implementation may not go as planned. That is why the 2017 sunset provision is important. It allows sufficient time for the program to get up and running but provides an important "out" if the program does not achieve its intended goals.

CPPP senior policy analyst Jane Burstain delivered this testimony on the permanency care assistance program to the Texas Senate Committee on Health and Human Services.

New Analysis Anticipates Child Poverty Increase (01/7/2010)

More than one of every five Texas children, or nearly 1.5 million kids, lived in poverty during 2008—and when data from 2009 are compiled, that number is likely to increase to one of every four kids, according to a new analysis released Wednesday by First Focus and Brookings researcher Julia Isaacs. The increase in poor children is placing an even heavier burden on an already strained network of private charities and state agencies already reeling from the triple punch of inadequate funding, staffing shortages, and a broken eligibility system that withholds critical assistance to needy families.

Child Abuse and Neglect Deaths in Texas (12/16/2009)

Recently, a spotlight has been focused on deaths from child abuse and neglect in Texas. Texas does have a higher death rate per capita compared to other states. The exact reasons for the higher rate are difficult to determine but seem to be related to two factors. First, other states may be undercounting their child abuse and neglect deaths. Second, Texas probably has a larger number of child abuse and neglect deaths per capita related to the difficult circumstances families face in Texas, specifically high child poverty, a high teen birth rate, and low child abuse and neglect prevention.

Child Protective Services and the 81st Legislature (07/16/2009)

The investments the 79th and 80th Legislatures made in the child protective services (CPS) system are paying off. More children are safely staying in their homes or with relatives and, when that is not possible, more are being adopted. As a result, fewer children are in foster care. The 81st Legislature built on these successes, making additional investments in CPS and passing legislation to further reduce the number of children entering the state's care and improve outcomes for those children who do. This policy page discusses the details of that legislation and what needs to be done next.

Steven Kampfer Thrilled to See Winter Classic Coming to Big House, Michigan Grad Still Wishes Bruins Were Participating - NHL

WILMINGTON, Mass. –- It may have been the worst-kept secret in NHL history, but the league made the news official on Thursday. Next year's Winter Classic will indeed be held at the Big House, the University of Michigan's colossal football stadium.

At least one Bruin couldn't think of a better place to hold what has become the NHL's signature midseason event.

"If you're going to have it in Michigan, it's definitely the place to have it," defenseman Steven Kampfer said. "With how the football stadium goes into the ground it's pretty cool, and I think Michigan will do a top-notch job of setting everything up."

Debt crisis, austerity, markets in turmoil

So what's the future for outsourcing?
Are businesses turning to outsourcing to help them through the economic crisis?

By Paul Morrison

The boom in outsourcing predicted at the start of the economic downturn in 2008 never materialised. So are businesses now turning to outsourcing to help them through the crisis, asks Paul Morrison.

When it comes to the world economy, we live in interesting times. And as businesses grapple with uncertainty, volatility, austerity, the Eurozone crisis and markets in recession, what role if any does outsourcing play?

In particular, has it become a more or less important feature of the business landscape, and is it helping or hindering organisations to succeed?

Outsourcing offers two primary benefits for an organisation weathering the economic storm.

First, cost reduction. Whether it's shaving 15 per cent off the costs of hosting a datacentre with a specialist, or 30 per cent for offshoring a back-office process, cost reduction is almost always the strongest motivation for outsourcing.

The dramatic fall in new outsourcing contracts between 2008 and 2010 had nothing to do with a perceived growth in insourcing

Good Nutrition Is Not A Mystery When You Use These Tips

It helps to have a person you can depend on when you are making big changes in your life. This person should be a mentor that has changed things in their life and who can level with you. It's always easier to embark on something new when you have someone by your side.

When you start to lose motivation, stop and remember what you are working for. These reasons will differ from person to person but will help you reach your goals.

Be wary of foods that brag about being fat-free or having no trans fat. While these foods are lower in fat, they tend to make up for the missing fat by adding a lot of extra sugar. It is best to scrutinize the nutritional information when deciding whether or not to purchase these items.

Substitute your dairy products for healthier alternatives. Simply switch from full fat to low-fat dairy products, and keep it simple. For example, you can use yogurt instead of sour cream to make dips. Instead of cream, you can also use evaporated milk, which has no fat. If you love cream cheese, you should try to substitute ricotta cheese. You will quickly find that these simple substitutions are not noticeable except in their calorie savings.

One day, one citizen's interactions with government

Long line at a New York State DMV

This is a snapshot of the influence and impact government at all levels has on one citizen in this country on one day.

In the president's State of the Union Address this week, he outlined his vision for America. He called it an "America Built to Last". This also happens to be his campaign slogan.

His vision included more taxes on American companies. He said "every multinational company should have to pay a basic minimum tax" ( It also included a vision for a bigger government with more power and more control. President Obama wants "the creation of a Trade Enforcement Unit that will be charged with investigating unfair trading practices" (

The president ignored the 10th Amendment of the Constitution, dictating to the states how they will run their schools and implying further control by the Feds "I am proposing that every state — every state — requires that all students stay in high school until they graduate or turn 18″ ( He also wants to continue to concentrate power in the executive branch, by passing our law making body, Congress. In his vision he has the power to "I intend to fight obstruction with action" ( such as he did with his recent recess appointments he conducted when the Senate was not in recess.

So, under his vision, government continues to grow. Government assumes responsibility for more agencies and assumes control over more aspects of our daily lives.  How is government, at all levels, managing the programs and control they have now?

In one day, I took notice of the interactions that I had with government at the local, state and Federal level and also took notice of their performance. Here is what happened.

what are medical ethics

Medical Ethics and Me: #NurseUp

Remember the name Amanda Trujillo.

Amanda Trujillo is a transplant nurse and patient advocate in Phoenix, Arizona. That is, she was.

Trujillo was fired in Spring 2011, lost her license, and cannot at present hold another nursing position in Arizona. And it seems that she was fired for being a transplant nurse advocating for a dying patient. Calling it ironic doesn't do it justice.

Trujillo's advocacy was either in defiance of, or at least without regard for, a transplant physician who had other plans for the patient that involved surgery and certain realities of post-surgical care about which the patient was not aware. Trujillo admits that the physician's concerns were not hers, and she clearly has strong feelings about how unaddressed revenue pressures can compromise institutional ethics and practices. What also is clear is that the best interests of the patient were Trujillo's priority. Which is pretty much what I want in a nurse.

Re-imagining History- The Sacrifice of Truth for Propaganda

By John Bacher

A recent cartoon published in The St. Catharines Standard – a newspaper which is now part of the Conservative Party leaning Sun Media empire – portrayed soldiers standing on guard during the War of 1812. They were instructed by their commander to stand firm, since if the Americans succeeded in winning, Canada would be turned into a National Park.

American troops stand firm during War of 1812 battle.

Following his encounter with the Native Americans of the plains, Catlin wrote the words which still resonate with Canadians who, in these dark times that try the soul, still dare to identify themselves as environmentalists. He urged that some great protecting policy of government serve to preserve its pristine beauty and wildness (as) a magnificent park. Such a A Nations Park, for Catlin would allow the world to see for ages to come, the native Indians in classic attire, galloping his wild horse, with sinewy bow, and shield and lance, amid the fleeting herds of elk and buffaloes.

Following Catlins 1832 vision, many years went by before diluted variants of his vision gained significant popular support. It was not until June 30, 1864 that American President Abraham Lincoln signed the law that protected the Yosemite Valley as a park. Here however, park protection was quite poor as the park was administered initially by the State of California.

TOP 25 LAS VEGAS RESORTS: #20 Rio All Suites

Over the next 25 days, Hollywood Soapbox will rank the Top 25 Las Vegas Resorts.

Our scores come from several editorial trips and include input from a network of writers. We have not seen everything or stayed everywhere; we will only offer our opinion on those features we have experienced. We are much more interested in educating our readers on their options.

Like our choices? Hate our choices? Leave your thoughts in the comment field below.

#20: Rio All Suites Hotel & Casino

Address: 3700 West Flamingo Road, Phone: 702-777-7777, Web site: www.riolasvegas.com

Quick facts: The Rio is an interesting property. It's one of the largest resorts in Las Vegas, yet it's not located on the Strip. It features one of the best buffets in town and top-of-the-line entertainment (I'm talking about Penn & Teller, not Chippendales). Most unusual of all is that the hotel/casino features 2,522 suites. There are no hotel rooms, just suites.

Now, that distinction is slightly deceiving. Yes, every suite is spacious and roomy (the minimum size is 1,100 square feet), but not every option is as swanky as the ritzy suites at the top properties in Las Vegas.

Still, the Rio is an interesting property and worth the trek from the lights of Las Vegas Boulevard.

ABSTRACT

Background: The Internet is a promising venue for delivering smoking cessation treatment, either as a stand-alone program or as an adjunct to pharmacotherapy. However, there is little data to indicate what percent of smokers are interested in receiving online smoking cessation services or how best to recruit smokers to Internet-based programs.
Objective: Using a defined recruitment sample, this study aimed to identify the percentage of smokers who expressed interest in or enrolled in Project Quit, a tailored, online, cognitive-behavioral support program offered with adjunctive nicotine replacement therapy patches. In addition, we examined the effectiveness of several individual-level versus population-level recruitment strategies.
Methods: Members from two large health care organizations in the United States were invited to participate in Project Quit. Recruitment efforts included proactive invitation letters mailed to 34533 likely smokers and reactive population-level study advertisements targeted to all health plan members (> 560000 adults, including an estimated 98000 smokers across both health care organizations).
Results: An estimated 1.6% and 2.5% of adult smokers from each health care organization enrolled in Project Quit. Among likely smokers who received proactive study invitations, 7% visited the Project Quit website (n = 2260) and 4% (n = 1273) were eligible and enrolled. Response rates were similar across sites, despite using different sources to assemble the invitation mailing list. Proactive individual-level recruitment was more effective than other forms of recruitment, accounting for 69% of website visitors and 68% of enrollees.
Conclusions: Smokers were interested in receiving online smoking cessation support, even though they had access to other forms of treatment through their health insurance. Uptake rates for this program were comparable to those seen when smokers are advised to quit and are referred to other forms of smoking cessation treatment. In this sample, proactive mailings were the best method for recruiting smokers to Project Quit.

what works for depression

'I Wanted To Live:' New Depression Drugs Offer Hope For Toughest Cases

Filed by KOSU News in Science.
January 31, 2012

A club drug called "Special K" is generating a lot of buzz among researchers who study depression.

That's because "Special K," which is actually an FDA-approved anesthetic named ketamine, can relieve even suicidal depression in a matter of hours. And it works on many patients who haven't responded to current antidepressants like Prozac.

Those traditional drugs, which act on the brain's serotonin system, can take more than a month to kick in, and don't work for up to 40 percent of people with major depression.

"We can take care of a migraine in hours," says Carlos Zarate, a brain researcher at the National Institute of Mental Health who is studying ketamine. "So why do we have to wait weeks or months with depression?"

Ketamine itself isn't likely to become the next big drug for depression because it has troubling side effects, including hallucinations, Zarate says. But understanding how ketamine works could lead to safer drugs that are just as effective, he says.

Drugs For Depression, Without Success

Ketamine was developed in the 1960s as an anesthetic and pain reliever. In the 1970s, recreational drug users figured out that if you take enough ketamine, you can have a mind-bending experience.

But the drug's ability to relieve depression wasn't clear until just a few years ago. And since then, most of the people who have received ketamine for depression have been participants in scientific studies of the drug.

One of those people is Christopher Stephens, 28, who lives in the San Francisco Bay area and was diagnosed with depression when he was just 15.

"My first prescription was for Paxil," he says. "Then I started on Prozac and then, you know, at 19, that's when I decided that I had to go and try new medications."

Maybe an obvious point but it is extremely important; your ability to make money and last in your IM business rests squarely on how you put it all together and make it work for you.

Many methods are quite typically chosen with people who start a web business, and renaissance clothing certainly seems to be a favorite. It is always a smart move to ask your self if there is any way you are not doing something as well as it can be accomplished.

Other issues complicate matters such as some people hate to be wrong or are afraid they are wrong, so they do not seek out the means to gain feedback. People who have a lot of experience understand the need to have an open mind and pick up any little useful tidbits of knowledge.

The first time you go live with anything, you will not be operating efficiently; hence the critical importance of testing all you ever roll out onto the net.

how the disciples died

Why Do Pain and Suffering Exist?

When talking to a skeptic about the existence of God, one will sooner or later get past the science discussion. It will come down to an old west style standoff. The skeptic will say that you cannot definitively prove the existence of God with science and the Christian will reply that you cannot definitively disprove the existence of God with science. (There are circles one can go within this debate especially if you drill down to specific sciences like physics, microbiology and astronomy. Sciences do point to a designer and some skeptics hold to the idea that life on Earth is an extension of life on another planet and was brought here either by an ancient alien life form or on a meteor (Superman style) from an exploded planet. This debate can go on and on, but typically will end with each side making the concession that you cannot either emphatically prove or disprove God based solely on science.) At this point the skeptic will often go into blather about the inability to prove unicorns and trolls to which the Christian simply scratches her head in wonder of what that has to do with the conversation.

Once past the science debate the discussion moves to a more philosophical tone. This is when one of the most divisive of all questions is posed by the skeptic. This one question is solely responsible for many people never accepting Christianity and for others leaving the faith altogether. The skeptic will look at the Christian and smile as if a light just turned on.

how to get kids in sims

Memphis 5Ks! | MemphisConnect

Well, it's that time again, folks! A new year means time for implementing new habits. What better way to kick off that resolution to get fit than by participating in some of the Mid-South's many upcoming 5k's and half-marathons?

I love doing 5k's and trying to decrease my time with each new adventure. My personal favorite 5k's are: Run for the Irish on March 11 (helps fund Irish music and art, with scenic race course; plus, St. Patty's is one of my favorite holidays!), aCross Town on March 31 (beautiful course throughout Bartlett neighborhood), Memphis Catholic 5k (benefits Memphis Catholic, is more like a carnival and 5k combined), Junior League 5k for the Kids on May 12 (great cause and after party), and Zoom through the Zoo (how awesome is running through the zoo?!), usually in May. Whatever your 5k preferences, there's plenty to choose from in the coming months.
February:

February 4th: Mike Cody Four Mile Classic, 9 am, Memphis, TN

February 11th: Valentine's Day 10k, 5k Run/Walk, 9 am, Bartlett, TN

Posted by Edwin Kee on February 1st, 2012

The day is drawing nearer and nearer where downloaded games are going to get more popular than their boxed counterparts, although I believe it will still be quite some time more before that happens.

how do find my target audience

Identifying Your Target Audience – What You Need to Know

Marketing any type of product on the Internet can become easy if you know who you're marketing it to. One thing you can be sure of, if you neglect the process of understanding your target audience, then you will not fare well in business. It's one of the key ingredients when it comes to big sales and high conversions. We will be sharing some solid methods that you can use to know who your target audience is. There are so many aspects of starting and running a successful internet business that includes Mass Traffic Matrix Review and getting comfortable with making important decisions is one of them. Perhaps one of the most challenging periods is in the beginning when confusion and doubt tend to run high.

The number of unknowns is yet one more possibly unpleasant aspect of this. The amount of knowledge and information you have to take-in looks intimidating, too, and that is assuming you know where you should start. If you never make any mistakes at all, then we tend to believe you are not doing enough to stretch and grow. It is getting through the beginning stages where you make more of them, and in due time they will decrease. There is always room for improvement, learning and growth which is what all savvy marketers do.
