Rebel with a CauseI’m a donkey among elephants, a democrat among a family of republicans--a product of the seventies when Earth shoes were popular and sprouts took the place of lettuce. Animals were friends we didn’t eat.
To round out the picture, I was cursed with an artistic streak. So you get the vision, a flaxen-haired twenty-something girl in a peasant blouse, sans bra, and handcrafted sandals with clay on her bleach-spotted jeans. Macrame was all the rage then too, so throw in a carefully knotted belt with beads dangling from the ends.
I was a rebel with a cause. In high school, we had sit-ins for peace, instead of proms and pep rallies. I’m sure my mother shakes her head and wonders where her quiet good child went. My sister, on the other hand, was a rebel in her youth but has since dutifully joined the elephants. So, I sit through family reunion breakfasts with my lips set in a tight smile, because though they are misguided, I love them.
So what, may you ask, does a flower child of the seventies have to learn about life in the 21st century?
That life can never be completely fair no matter who’s in control of the congress. People get cancer no matter how carefully they eat. Look at Mr. Rogers. He was a vegetarian who swam everyday. There are no guarantees in life. When all is said and done, those with money are no different from those without. Death is the great equalizer. And once you know all this and have been thoroughly depressed by this gem of wisdom, you come to realize you have to grab at the moments of happiness that are given to you instead of letting them zip past you while you’re looking toward the future.
Perhaps that is why I became a writer. A romance writer has the chance to create fairness in a world where fairness is too seldom the winner. Romance writers are optimists by nature. We offer the world a happy ending, something that is in short supply. If you doubt me, just listen to the evening news. Romance readers are our partners in hope. They want a better world too. I salute them.

Yes, you can do it it, but you'll need to cook and mash/puree the potato first. The cooking inactivates the potato's enzymes, breaks down the potato cells, and kills the spoilage microbes present in the raw potato. When combined with cooking, pureeing finishes breaking down the potato's cells and makes their starch and sugars accessible for your sourdough to digest. Oh, and retain part of the starchy water from cooking the potatoes; you will need this to make the mixture wet enough for the sourdough, and the extracted starch gives them more available food.
As with all changes in sourdough feed, make the change-over gradually; start feeding the starter with a batch of half-flour, half-potatoes, and then switch over to just potatoes after a few feeding cycles. This will make it easier for the yeasts and bacteria in the starter to adjust to the change.
To get proper results with other vegetables, you'll need a lot of starch content. If you cannot get a flour made from the vegetable, I wouldn't expect a sourdough to live on it. Sweet potatoes and parsnips should work. Chickpeas, beans, peas, and lentils may work if cooked well (retaining as much starchy water as possible) and pureed. With all these vegetables, cooking and pureeing is suggested.
The yeasts in sourdough can also ferment sugar-heavy vegetables, such as beets, carrots, onions, or tomatoes, but the results are similar to sauerkraut or kimchee. Don't expect the starter to thrive and propagate using these foods, but it may make for an interesting experiment nonetheless.

TCM acupuncture-moxibustion: Contributing to human health
作者：超级管理员 来源：本站原创 点击：346次 更新：2017-06-26
Diretor of Academic Department of WFAS, Associate Editor-in-Chief of WJAM, LIU Wei-hong (刘炜宏)
XI Jin-ping, the Chinese President, visited the World Health Organization (WHO) on January 18, 2017. As the first supreme leader in China who visited WHO, President XI Jin-ping attended the presentation ceremony of a bronze statue of acupuncture figure to WHO by China together with Margaret Chan, the Secretary-general of WHO, and unveiled the bronze acupuncture statue. This presentation has a profound meaning.
Bronze acupuncture statue was founded in Tiansheng five years in ancient Song Dynasty of China (1027 AD). At that time, acupuncture-moxibustion therapy prevailed in China. In order to avoid the mistake of locating clinical acupoint, the medical officer WANG Wei-yi defined the acupoint location and locating method, and completed three volumes of Tóngrén Shūxué Zhēnjiŭ Tújīng (《铜人腧穴针灸图经》, Illustrated Classic of Acupoints on the Bronze Figure). Then, under the support of the government, two bronze acupuncture statue were cast, which were known as Tiansheng bronze statue. By taking the standard height of man at that time as the criterion, Tiansheng bronze statue stood naturally in a positive status, and was composed of front and back cast parts, with the five viscera and six bowels inside the body cavity. 657 acupoints and 354 acupoint names were marked on the whole body. All acupoints communicated with the body, which was not only used for finding acupoints, but also can be used for acupuncturist examination. In order to facilitate the practitioners and common people to learn acupuncture knowledge, WANG Wei-yi engraved the contents of Illustrated Classic of Acupoints on the Bronze Figure on the stone monument which was set up under the porch of Renji palace of Daxiangguo Temple in Kaifeng City, Henan Province, the capital of China at that time. Illustrated Classic of Acupoints on the Bronze Figure, bronze acupuncture statue and stone monument with classic were the three kinds of expression forms of acupoint standard of acupuncture-moxibustion. The bronze acupuncture statue were fuzzy with unclear writing in Ming Dynasty, and a new bronze acupuncture statue was cast in Zhengtong eight years (1443 AD) which was known as Zhengtong bronze statue. Zhengtong bronze statue was lost after chaos caused by war, and a new one was cast again in Qing Dynasty which are collected in National Museum of China now. The bronze statue presented to WHO was elaborated by imitating the one in National Museum of China.
Undoubtedly, acupuncture-moxibustion from China is an important member of the family of traditional medicine in the world. The countries with ancient civilization have their own traditional medicine. Compared with them, traditional Chinese medicine may not have a long history, but occupies an important position in current social medical system. According to the survey made by WHO, among the 194 member countries, 103 have approved the use of acupuncture-moxibustion; laws and regulations have been established in Australia, Hungary and other 29 countries and regions, and acupuncture-moxibustion have been included in the medical insurance system in New Zealand, Switzerland and other 18 countries and regions, which indicates that the contribution of acupuncture-moxibustion from China to human health is increasing.
The bronze acupuncture statue from China stands in silence in the headquarters of WHO, conveys the cognitive concept of life contained in the ancient TCM acupuncture-moxibustion which is full of vitality, and spreads light of wisdom of Chinese nation. It is also shown that China is willing to contribute acupuncture-moxibustion to the world, making it contribute to all mankind.

Are you having back pain with any of the following?
We understand that you are experiencing one or more of the health issues that might be impacting your back pain.
We recommend that you discuss these health issues with your doctor before proceeding with this program.
Once you are cleared by your doctor to do this program, we hope it helps you find relief from your back pain.
If you smoke or use tobacco products, quitting is the best thing you can do for your health and the health of your loved ones. Good planning, support, and the latest quit tobacco medications can help you succeed.
Even if you feel ready to quit right away, taking some time to plan will help you be more successful in the long run. And if you don't feel ready right now, some of these steps may be useful in increasing your knowledge of how tobacco fits into your life, as well as improving your confidence and readiness to quit. Kaiser Permanente has resources that can support you in exploring your readiness or creating a quit plan.
Everyone is different, but most people find a combination of strategies works best for them. Despite what many of us may wish, there's no one strategy or medication that will make quitting quick, easy, and painless. In fact, depending on a single strategy, like relying solely on medication, may leave you vulnerable to relapse. On the other hand, if you build a plan with many strategies, you'll be that much more prepared to face challenging situations when you quit. If one strategy doesn't work, you'll have another one to try instead of starting to smoke again.
Any past attempts to quit are valuable sources of information. Think back over past attempts and ask yourself:
When you evaluate your past quit attempts this way, you may find that they are not failures but provide opportunities that can really help your next attempt. Use the information you learn about what works and what doesn't to make a stronger plan for next time.
Just writing down your motivations and strategies can be helpful when you are thinking through your plan. Consider writing down:
Sign it at the bottom if you'd like: This is a contract with yourself to do your best to quit tobacco.
One of the most helpful things you can do to get ready to quit is to become more aware of the way you use tobacco, how it fits into your daily routines and your life in general. This information helps you choose which strategies will support you when you take tobacco out of the picture.
Many people have been smoking for so long that it has become automatic. If asked when or why they smoke, they might say, "I don't know, I just smoke." A smoking log or "pack track" can help you become more aware of when and why you smoke throughout the day. You can print and make notes in one of our pack tracks or use your own paper. Some people attach the log to their pack of cigarettes so they always have it on hand. You can also use your mobile phone. If it's a smart phone, there are apps available that can help with this.
Keep a record of the tobacco you use on one weekday and one weekend day. When you track your cigarettes, note:
Another way to increase awareness of your tobacco use is to change your daily tobacco routines. Not only will you learn more about the way you smoke; you'll find smoking less convenient and automatic than it once was.
Addiction to nicotine is a big part of why a person will want to use tobacco again and again throughout the day. However, certain situations, moods, or activities can "trigger" the need to smoke. If you always have a cigarette after a meal, you'll probably find yourself wanting one after you quit, even if your body isn't craving nicotine.
Some triggers to use tobacco are more common than others:
Observe your smoking habits and make a list of your triggers. Your "pack track" is one way to help you do this. Once you have the list, start thinking of what you'll do in those situations when tobacco isn't an option anymore.
Changing your routine is one helpful way to break the connection between a certain behavior or trigger and your decision to use tobacco. Ideas for changing your routine include:
Sometimes you can cope with a trigger by simply avoiding the trigger altogether. Try to:
These examples may be helpful, but you are the best judge of what would work best for you.
Quit tobacco medicines are drugs that help people quit smoking. They can ease the cravings and other symptoms you might feel as your body withdraws from nicotine, the addictive drug in cigarettes and other tobacco products. This allows you to focus on your other strategies for living life without tobacco.
There are 2 main types of quit tobacco medications: those that contain nicotine (such as the nicotine patch or nicotine gum) and those that do not contain nicotine (such as the antidepressant medication called Bupropion).
Both types have been proven to increase the chances of successfully quitting, and studies have shown that using more than one type of medication at one time may bring even more success.
There may be reasons not to use quit smoking medications. If you don't smoke every day or if you smoke fewer than 10 cigarettes per day, these medications may not be as effective in helping you quit.
Some quit tobacco medications might not be right for you if you're pregnant, breastfeeding a baby, or have health conditions that make any individual medication a poor choice.
Changing the way you smoke can be a helpful step toward quitting. One effective way to do this is to schedule when you will smoke (and when you won't). Here's how it works: choose certain times of the day when you allow yourself to smoke and times when you don't. How you do this is up to you, but some people decide to smoke during even hours of the day. This means they can smoke at 2:00, 4:00, and 6:00 but not at 1:00, 3:00, or 5:00. Other people might say they can smoke early in the morning and afternoon, but not from 10:00 am to noon, or from 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm. This can be even more effective if you choose to cut down the amount of tobacco you use over several weeks, all the while scheduling when you can use it.
This can be more effective than cutting down without scheduling. One reason may be that you are allowing yourself to practice not smoking without pressuring yourself to give it up all together. During the times you have told yourself you are not allowed to use tobacco, you have to employ some strategies to deal with cravings or trigger situations. You have the opportunity to test out your strategies – if deep breathing doesn't keep you from smoking, you'll have to try something else the next time. As you find what works for you, you may also find that your confidence and skills needed for successfully quitting are growing, too.
Just like any other part of quitting, what works best is unique to you. Still, evidence shows that practice can increase your success.
Support can come from many places. You may ask your family, friends, and coworkers to support you during this time. There are also a number of resources available to help – classes, online tools, individual counseling, or written information.
Local chapters of the American Lung Association, the American Cancer Society, or the American Heart Association can provide written materials, self-help smoking cessation guides, ongoing classes, and helpful online programs.
If you have an emergency medical condition, call 911 or go to the nearest hospital. An emergency medical condition is any of the following: (1) a medical condition that manifests itself by acute symptoms of sufficient severity (including severe pain) such that you could reasonably expect the absence of immediate medical attention to result in serious jeopardy to your health or body functions or organs; (2) active labor when there isn't enough time for safe transfer to a Plan hospital (or designated hospital) before delivery, or if transfer poses a threat to your (or your unborn child's) health and safety, or (3) a mental disorder that manifests itself by acute symptoms of sufficient severity such that either you are an immediate danger to yourself or others, or you are not immediately able to provide for, or use, food, shelter, or clothing, due to the mental disorder.
This information is not intended to diagnose health problems or to take the place of specific medical advice or care you receive from your physician or other health care professional. If you have persistent health problems, or if you have additional questions, please consult with your doctor. If you have questions or need more information about your medication, please speak to your pharmacist. Kaiser Permanente does not endorse the medications or products mentioned. Any trade names listed are for easy identification only.

Unfortunately, I also have some very sad news. Last Friday I was so stressed out, because I have been waiting an entire year to get this particular cell line I need for my research and after finally getting the people to agree to send it... well lets not get too complicated, and simply say there were some possibly devastating consequences of the timing it was sent. Anyways, super stressed + one of my nails totally broke off. I chewed them all off. Down past the nail bed, painful, super short. I am so dissapointed in myself! I am going to give them a few more days to grow out just a bit, and then I will share my new tiny ugly nubbins with you all, because I created this blog to be accountable to YOU for these nails and I have to make myself share. Despite this setback, I will go on!
For now, enjoy some gorgeous nails from pre-chewing disaster!
This beauty is Deborah Lippmann Across the Universe, a fabulous sheer navy jelly base with green and blue large hex glitter, plus light blue small round glitter. I am so in love with Lippmann glitters! I do find it hard to keep my eyes off my nails when I am wearing them, haha.
This was three coats, which gives fabulous coverage. There was a tiny bit of dragging issues, but I did not wait at all, which is always important with glitters - so be sure to give this one a minute in between coats so the glitter sets. The wear on this was very nice as well, only a small amount of tipwear after a few days. Removal of course is a bit of a pain, as with all glitters... but I have had worse. Overall a really great polish!
If you have not yet, be sure to enter my giveaway! It ends on Friday. :)

Big five game
In Africa, the big five game animals are the African lion, African elephant, Cape buffalo, African leopard, and White/Black rhinoceros. The term big five game (sometimes capitalized or quoted as "Big Five") was coined by big-game hunters and refers to the five most difficult animals in Africa to hunt on foot. Subsequently the term was adopted by safari tour operators for marketing purposes. The term is used in most tourist and wildlife guides that discuss African wildlife safaris. The members of the Big Five were chosen for the difficulty in hunting them and the degree of danger involved, rather than their size.
The big five are among the most dangerous, yet most popular species for big game hunters to hunt.
Countries where all the members of the big five can be found include Botswana, Zambia, Uganda, Namibia, Ethiopia, South Africa, Kenya, Tanzania, Zimbabwe, Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Malawi.
The African elephant (Loxodonta africana) is a very large herbivore having thick, almost hairless skin, a long, flexible, prehensile trunk, upper incisors forming long curved tusks of ivory, and large, fan-shaped ears. There are two distinct species of African elephant: African forest elephant (Loxodonta cyclotis) and the African bush elephant (Loxodonta africana). The elephants are difficult because despite their large size, they are able to hide in tall grass and are more likely to charge than the other species.
The black rhinoceros (Diceros bicornis) is a large, thick-skinned herbivore having one or two upright horns on the nasal bridge. Rhinoceros may refer to either black or white rhinoceros. Among big five game hunters, the black rhinoceros is preferred, although it is now critically endangered.
The African or Cape buffalo (Syncerus caffer) is a large horned bovid. Buffalo are sometimes reported to kill more people in Africa than any other animal, although the same claim is also made of hippos and crocodiles. It is considered the most dangerous of the big five, reportedly causing the most hunter deaths, with wounded animals reported to ambush and attack pursuers.
The lion (Panthera leo) is a large carnivorous feline of Africa and northwest India, having a short, tawny coat, a tufted tail, and, in the male, a heavy mane around the neck and shoulders. Lions are desirable to hunters because of the very real danger involved. A lion may attack without provocation, and is considered by many to be the best of the big five.
Lion hunting is challenging because of the habitat and temperament of the lion. Lions live in the savanna where tall grasses, shrubs, and bushes obscure them and provide cover and camouflage. This thick undergrowth is commonly referred to as jess. As lions are ambush hunters, they use this natural cover when stalking to creep as close as possible before making a final charge to catch their prey. Lions do not generally avoid confrontation, but will usually face a challenger. Lions are unpredictable and may charge when sufficiently annoyed or confronted by danger. These factors together make lion hunting a challenge to hunters.
Lions are hunted by three methods: baiting, stalking, and hounding. The hunting method is dependent firstly on the law, then the number of lions in a given area, the terrain, and the preference and expertise of the professional hunter, or of the concession owner or hunting outfitter and their client.
Baiting involves the hunter lying in wait in a natural or constructed blind. Prior to the lion hunt, a prey species is hunted beforehand for use as bait. The bait is then secured to a tree or secure structure in an area which is known to be frequented by lions; usually this will be close to a watering hole. The bait is checked regularly until there are signs the carcass has been visited by a lion. Then a blind is constructed, usually 30–50 yd (27–46 m) from the bait, where the hunting party can remain concealed, usually from early evening until early morning of the next day.
Stalking involves driving along trails in areas where lions are known to inhabit. Once fresh fæces are sighted, the hunting party (which includes trackers) dismounts. The trackers follow tracks and spoor signs while scanning for the lion. When the lion is spotted, the professional hunter and/or the client will stalk in close until they reach a good shooting position. Hunting lions by stalking is conducted in daylight hours when there is sufficient light to spot the lion, which will usually be resting. Night stalking using electric light sources is banned in most countries. Lions hunted with lights may not be listed as trophies by Safari Club International.
Hounding (the method least used today) uses dogs, and may include a fighting pack and a tracking pack. The hunting party will drive through known lion territory until fresh spoor is spotted, at which time the dogs are released. The pack follows the scent trail of the lion. Once the lion is encountered, the pack attempts to hold the lion at bay until the hunting party arrives to dispatch the lion. Like stalking, hounding is usually conducted during daylight hours. The lion will usually stand and fight rather than flee.
Many concessions in Africa have been known to release captive lions into enclosed areas where they may be hunted with or without the client's approval and/or knowledge. Sometimes the lion is drugged to slow it down, making it an easier target. Many hunters and hunting organizations consider this unethical and an affront to fair-chase hunting practices.
The lion has thin skin and does not require the use of a big-bore rifle. Furthermore, lions are evidently susceptible to hydrostatic shock when impact velocities are above 3,000 ft/s (910 m/s). Lion hunting requires at a minimum a .300 Winchester Magnum. However, certain jurisdictions require a .375 H&H Magnum or a 9.3x62mm Mauser as a minimum caliber. A few professional hunters are known to carry 12-gauge semiautomatic shotguns loaded with buckshot as a backup weapon when hunting lion.
The leopard (Panthera pardus) is a large, carnivorous feline having either tawny fur with dark rosette-like markings or black fur. Of the big five, it is most difficult to acquire hunting licenses for leopards. The leopard is considered the most difficult of the big five to hunt because of their nocturnal and secretive nature. They are wary of humans and will take flight in the face of danger. The leopard is solitary by nature, and is most active between sunset and sunrise, although it may hunt during the day in some areas. Leopards can be found in the savanna grasslands, brush land and forested areas in Africa.
Leopard hunting uses the same methods as hunting for lions. Baiting, hounding, and stalking are the most common methods used today to hunt the cat.
Baiting is the method most often used to hunt leopard. This requires the finding and then following of spoor in an area known to be frequented by a leopard. Once a suitable area is located, a prey species is hunted and used as bait. Because of the nocturnal nature of the cat, the blind needs to be constructed close to the bait, as shooting will more than likely be during the night. The client and the professional hunter will spend the night in the blind waiting for the leopard to come to the carcass.
Hounding with dogs to hunt leopard requires the hunting party to locate an area where a leopard has been recently active, as in the baiting method. Once such an area is located, the dogs (usually bloodhounds or ridgebacks) are released. The dogs attempt to pick up the scent and follow it to the leopard. The leopard will usually flee from the loudly baying dogs and take refuge in a tree or in an area out of their reach. The dogs will hold the leopard at bay in this manner until the hunting party arrives to dispatch the leopard.
Stalking is rarely used to hunt leopard, as it is extremely time-consuming, tedious and has a very low success rate. A month-long hunt using the spot and stalk method may not be successful at even sighting a leopard.
The male leopard is less than half the size of a male lion. The leopard is the smallest of the big cats, and rarely exceeds 200 lb (91 kg).
There is a concerted effort to stop the hunting of the leopard due to the rarity of it and any subsequent big cat.
The African lion and the African bush elephant are classified as vulnerable. The leopard and the white rhinoceros are classified as near threatened. The black rhinoceros is classified as critically endangered so cannot be hunted at all. The African buffalo is the most popular big five game animal to hunt, as its conservation status is least concern.

These 30->72 pin converters will most likely overload (much more chips!)
the memory bus of the machine. Be careful, you can screw the CPU this way,
I once had a friend with a fried CPU, a lot of logic directly connects to
the CPU without buffer chips in between.
It takes memory in pairs of 2 alright.
I have the latest copy of the NoName OEM guide at

Vivid Garden’s Gallery of Interlocking Pavers and Retaining Wall Projects.
The interlocking patio pavers are one of the latest pavement systems as of today. It used the Ancient Roman technology in today’s pavement architecture. Using an interlocking feature between and among the pavers, it made a better paving system with more durability, vitality, design and class.
One of the known advantages of interlocking concrete paver is that there will be less movement in the pavements because of the constraining power of the pavers interlocked with one another. This enables stability in cold climate, even in accommodating heavy vehicles.
The interlocking patio paver system also enables an easy-repair function on each paver without much trouble. For this particular reason, the maintenance cost of pavers is at the least. Due to their durability the chances of damaging the interlocking concrete pavers are very small.
The benefits of Interlocking Concrete Pavers are many:
- A large variety of paver styles
- Many color choices
- Create your custom design
- Low maintenance
- 30 year + life expectancy

Concrete Block Retaining Walls
We do not recommend using lumber to build retaining walls. Lumber will not last very long in our climate and you will have to spend your money again. If you ever decide to sell your property, old broken lumber retaining wall will create liability issue and make it less desirable for potential buyers.
With similar installation cost there are many attractive precast concrete block systems available. Also called segmental retaining walls, they offer extreme durability and long-lasting beauty. Well designed, correctly installed interlocking pavers and concrete block retraining walls will add value to your property.

A report on Pathshala South Asian Media Institute, published by the online news portal bdnews24.com, has come to our attention (?Shahidul Alam?s Pathshala operates without affiliation,? bdnews24.com, 6 August 2016). Unsubstantiated allegations, backbiting and innuendo and the absence of cross checking characterise the ?report.? It is a shoddy piece of journalism. Continue reading “PATHSHALA?S RESPONSE TO BDNEWS24.COM?S REPORT”
At a time when our entire education system is in crisis, the quality of education is in question and the values that student?s inculcate is a source of fear.?A student of?Pathshala South Asian Media Institute,?in response to questions about the validity of the very certificate he has obtained, talks passionately about the institution?s pedagogic model and how he has been transformed by it.
by Mahtab Nafis?
A letter to whom it may concern
BEFORE joining Pathshala, I had studied in nine schools and one university (all certified) in this country. But never before had I found an environment similar to the one at Pathshala. South Asian Media Institute, founded by Shahidul Alam. Forget about competing, none of them are even light years close.
From a very early age I had sincere doubts and disagreements with the ?socially accepted? and ?certified? educational systems. For, all I had seen was a bunch of sheep-like people following a curriculum given by a governing body or authority without assessing, questioning or having an opinion on the teaching method or the materials. It seemed that people blindly followed the dictum ?this is how things are?, an attitude which I could never accept. Everywhere, I saw teachers give students instructions or orders to follow a rigid structure, to memorise, to cover the syllabus. Even those studying in a creative field had teachers who would promote and indoctrinate a particular pattern of thinking or school of thought. This basically means that you are thinking other people?s thoughts and are being conditioned in someone else?s mental shadow. Continue reading “On the ?uncertified? Pathshala”

The Office of the Bursar will process third party billing of tuition, fees and other charges to businesses, governments, agencies, organizations and employers desiring to sponsor a student at Ohio University.
The billing is processed on a per term basis. A letter or contract must be presented to the University outlining the sponsor’s guarantee to pay. This authorization must not be contingent upon the student receiving a specific grade or upon a financial need status.
It is the policy of the University to protect our student’s right to confidentiality under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). Sponsors must obtain information regarding grades, transcripts, course listings or other specific information directly from the student.
What is a Sponsored Student?
Sponsored students are those students that are registered and require Ohio University to bill an outside sponsor for their tuition, fees (tuition, technology fee, course fees, room/meal plan charges, student legal services fee, and/or health insurance, etc.) while they attend the University. A letter of authorization is required from the sponsoring agency expressly authorizing Ohio University to bill the sponsor directly for the student's expenses. A third party credit is then applied to the student account each term for the covered expenses, which is then conditional upon the sponsor's payment.
What are the Sponsored Student's Responsibilities?
- It is the student’s responsibility to ensure that the University is provided with a valid authorization letter (contract) from their sponsor, prior to the due date on the student account to avoid late payment fees and financial holds.
- A sponsored student must monitor their student account status regularly. If the sponsor does not cover the total charges, it is the student’s responsibility to pay the balance owed.
- Non-payment by the sponsor, for whatever reason, becomes an immediate liability to and the responsibility of the student.
- It is the student’s responsibility to know the duration of the sponsorship as listed in the authorization letter. The University will not notify a student when the sponsorship has expired.
- Additional information required by the sponsor, including grades, transcripts, course(s) and other miscellaneous information, must be supplied by the student.
- If questions arise concerning conditions of the sponsorship, the student should contact the sponsor, not Ohio University.
What are the Sponsor's Responsibilities?
- Provide a letter or contract to Ohio University prior to the term start date with the following information:
- Student’s name and University ID number
- Description of covered charges, which may include tuition, technology fee, course fees, room/meal plan charges, student legal services fee, and/or health insurance fees
- Any dollar limitations on the covered charges
- If the student's scholarship or grant awards should be deducted before invoicing
- Length of sponsorship – beginning and ending dates of period, specific term(s) and/or academic year(s), other
- Sponsor’s billing address
- Sponsor contact person information including name, telephone number, fax number and email address
- Sponsor should only make payment from the University invoice, not the student’s bill.
- Sponsor shall mail payment to the provided address. Payment is due in full upon receipt of invoice notice.
- Sponsor will pay all enrollment adjustments on a student’s account for the term authorized, when applicable.
- If the sponsored student is an employee of the sponsor and is terminated during the term, the sponsor will pay as agreed and invoiced.
What are the University's Responsibilities for Sponsored Students?
- The Office of the Bursar will review authorization letters (contracts) upon receipt and will certify eligible students. When presented prior to deadlines, this process will apply a third party credit for the covered expenses and avoid student account late payment fees.
- The Office of the Bursar will invoice the sponsor for the authorized charges. The invoice will state the student’s name and the total allowable charges.
- Any refund resulting from an adjustment to the student’s account after sponsor payment will be returned to the sponsor.
- The Office of the Bursar will charge back to the student’s account any charges resulting from non-payment of sponsored charges by the sponsor.
- The Office of the Bursar will attempt to comply with a sponsor’s particular invoice requirements, but this is not guaranteed and is based upon system limitations.
What is a Letter of Authorization?
It is a document in which a sponsor commits to pay designated educational expenses for the student. The letter from the sponsor specifies what they will pay, the period of coverage and billing information. Sponsors usually send the letter directly to the University, but some sponsors send the letter to the student.
If the letter is sent directly to you, complete any required information and submit it to the Office of the Bursar before the due date to avoid late fees. We will then apply a conditional third party credit on your student account for the covered expenses as long as we receive it by the due date. Again, be aware that the balance owed is subject to late fees while it is outstanding.
When Do I Send the Letter of Authorization?
The sooner the letter is received the better, since early notification prevents late fees from accruing. It also allows students better information about what they personally will be expected to pay and eliminates unnecessary follow-up by students.
Where Do I Send the Letter of Authorization?
Attn: Sponsored Accounts
For Which Educational Expenses Will the University Bill My Sponsor?
The University will bill a sponsor for tuition, technology fee, course fees, room/meal plan charges, student legal services fee, and/or health insurance, etc., as long as the fees are covered as specified in the authorization. Payments for other expenses should be coordinated between the student and their sponsor.
I Am a Sponsored Student and I Am Also Eligible for a Graduate Student Assistant (GSA) Tuition Waiver. What Should I Do?
The sponsor will be billed for tuition and fees not covered by the GSA tuition waiver, as long as the fees are covered as specified in the authorization.
What Is the University's Billing Schedule for Sponsored Accounts?
Initial invoices will be prepared and mailed to the sponsors according to following schedule:
Initial Month Billed
Invoices for students in the Academic Outreach RN to BSN Program will be issued after the census date of the third 5-week session of the semester.
Who Can I Contact with a Sponsored Student Question?
Additional questions concerning authorization letters and sponsor billings should be directed to the Office of the Bursar as follows:
Office of the Bursar
Attention: Sponsored Accounts
010 Chubb Hall
Athens, OH 45701
I’m Sponsored. Why Do I Have a Late Payment Fee?
Sponsored students who do not submit their sponsor authorization letter prior to the term billing or do not pay their portion of the bill when due, may be responsible for any late payment fees assessed to their student account.
What Are the University’s Billing Guidelines for Sponsored Students?
The University will invoice sponsors during the term after the drop and add period has passed. Invoices are sent to the contact person at the address provided in the authorization letter. Invoices are due upon receipt.
What Happens if My Sponsor Doesn’t Make a Timely Payment?
A second invoice will be mailed to the sponsor thirty (30) days after the initial invoice. If payment is not received within the thirty (30) days, all charges that are not paid by the sponsor will be placed on the student account and the student will be billed electronically in the next student billing cycle.
Students are legally responsible to pay the full cost of their educational expenses if their sponsor does not pay.
This completed form allows Ohio University to bill the student's sponsor or employer directly.

In June God has helped me to work a lot at spreading the Gospel at people’s houses from Vanchikauts and Fagadau.
The director of the kindergarten asked me to lead the work outside the kindergarten building where during three weeks in a row 8-10 people came every day to build some pavements from tiles. When I was healthy I could do this kind of work very well, that’s why she asked me to supervise the work.
In April we celebrated three big holidays: Annunciation on April 7th, the Palm Sunday on 9th and Easter on 16th. On these holidays I talked to a lot of people of different ages, on the roads and at their homes.
Although Fagadau is a little village, a lot of people are worried of their future. For example a young man of 23 met me and asked me how he can stay faithful to the Lord, as it is difficult nowadays to keep faith in God.
At the village of Novoselitsa I talked to the mayor. He asked me a lot of questions that were not clear for him in the Bible and I with God’s help answered at all of them.
We thank God for giving us the opportunity to share the Gospel to the unsaved people. We invited them to church. We pray for all who heard the Gospel to open their hearts and homes for Jesus.
In the last month of 2016 I had the opportunity to share the people in Fagadau the Good News of Jesus Christ. In December the orthodox people celebrate different kinds of holidays such as Saint Nicholas Day or Saint Andrew’s Day that are significant for them but they don’t know who these saints were.
This man, Mihai had a CT scan in Chernovtsy and the doctors diagnosed him with cancer that turned in metastasis. He had spent a fortune on chemo for 6 months with no results; then I offered him to go to Lvov, to have a consultation at the hospital where I stayed before.
I started to tell them about my faith in God and about Jesus Christ as the world’s Savior and Lord. They listened to me very carefully and one of the doctors told me that only with God’s power and wisdom they do a surgery.

It's National Work Zone Safety Awareness Week
It's Work Zone Awareness Week. Just in time to send a friendly reminder as work crews begin repairing winter damage and preparing our roads for summer travel.
In the United States, there were 37,476 injuries in work zones in 2010. This equates to one work zone injury every 14 minutes (96 a day), or about four people injured every hour.
Please exercise caution in these situations. Ad campaigns geared toward work zone safety have everyone in mind, not just the workers. While it is probably not shocking to learn that most accidents in these areas are rear-end collisions; it may surprise you to discover that the majority of fatalities involve drivers and their passengers, not the workers themselves. The most common collision cause cited in the 2010 "Crash Data" report was due to inattentive or distracted drivers; followed by unsafe vehicle trailing distance, speed, and failure to yield.
You can help prevent work zone accidents. Visit our blog to learn important safety tips for work zone travel.

My name is Amy, a local girl with a passion for dogs. I offer a local Dog Grooming Service. Your pet will receive one to one attention, in a quiet calm environment. Fully qualified, fully insured, trained in canine first aid and DBS checked.
There are many benefits to grooming your dog apart from the fact that they will look and smell great!....
A Healthy coat
Grooming aerates the coat, and ensures healthy growth of the hair shaft and airflow to the skin.
Some dogs require regular trimming and grooming as part of their care plan to prevent matting. When choosing a dog this is something you should consider.
Dogs with an undercoat if not brushed out regularly, can form heavy undercoat wads which drag the skin down, causing soreness and skin complaints In summer this can cause your dog to overheat.
Brushing promotes good blood circulation which in turn creates a healthy coat.
Grooming helps to keep grease levels down . A build-up of grease in a dog’s coat can block pores and cause sebaceous cysts.
Most dogs live indoors and so moult quicker and more often than their wild counterparts, causing the loose hairs to become matted. The more you groom the less hair you will have around your home, and the less chance of skin complaints.
You run a reduced risk of eye, ear, skin, teeth and nail infections, ensuring your pet is free from pain and disease. Many health issues such as ticks, fleas and skin conditions can be caught before they become an emergency.
Lower vet bills
As regular grooming can reduces infections and disease.
Your pet will be more comfortable being handled This is especially true around the face, feet and tail. Your dog will gain increased sociability as grooming becomes a positive experience for them. This makes things much easier should you need to get the dog examined at the vet etc.

What better place to hold the inaugural Hasura London meetup than L39 at One Canada Square. Yes, this is an actual photo taken from the evening. Many thanks to Ben Ford and Jesse Martin for organising! Somehow I didn’t actually find out about the event until a week before but luckily I was able to attend.
It transpired that before the Hasura meetup there was a workshop, so I decided to attend this too. The story here was that we had 3 hours and the plan was to work through a real business problem and build a solution there and then. As always with these things the business requirements led to an increasingly complex data model, and there was some consternation that we’d spent too long on the data model, but once we’d got it right, we built out the remaining solution in no time.
Hang on? How did we do that exactly? You did what in 3 hours at Hasura?
- Created the schema
- Launched the database and created the tables
- Launched Hasura and hooked it up
- Built a pipeline in n8n to populate the database from an open API that we’d not seen before
- Built a UI to display various analytics using Retool. (With a single click this also became editable too)
Yup! and that is mighty impressive. Obviously there’s a whole 80/20 rule thing going on here, and the devil would be in the detail, but it shows what this simple #LowCode stack can achieve.
And finally an interesting snippet from the workshop, one company went from nothing, to a #Unicorn (1bn valuation, doesn’t seem to matter these days whether thats $, £ or Eur!) in a year. And what was their core tech? Yes, Hasura.
Anyway, workshop over, it was time for some snacks and to get ready for the usergroup. The main talk was from Tom and was all about whether or not various things are turing complete. That led on to something called the game of life, which itself IS turing complete. So; seemingly the obvious conclusion was that if you can implement the game of life in Hasura then hasura must be turing complete! Excellent. Well after hitting rate limit after rate limit with various free services, it was shown to work.
Secondly, Jesse did an ad-hoc demo showing off some work he’d been doing on a pizza ordering system which again, we got working fine. This shows off the new feature around streaming, which is subtly different to subscriptions – in streaming only the changes are sent as messages, rather than the whole object – something that is particularly interesting in the gaming arena, and also funnily enough, it’s how the F1 data API works too.
I must say thanks to everyone involved, to the organisers, and to everyone who came, and hopefully there’ll be another one later in the year.

Despite many cakes and bakes being popular in Birmingham during its industrialisation all the way up to today, there is no baked product that can be classed as quintessentially Brummy or even traced back to Birmingham. The main reason for this is that bakers simply didn’t have the money or the time to think about creating something new when none of their customers would be interested or even be able to afford what they created.
As a multi-cultural city and with the city fast becoming a ‘foodie destination’, it won’t be long before other sweet bakery items are added to the bread pudding and lardy cake favourites.
Jonah Street, BSc Bakery and Patisserie Student at University College Birmingham and a Dawn Foods’ Student Ambassador, looks at some of Birmingham’s bakery history and the emergence of ‘bally-fillers’ for the working classes.
Birmingham has long been known as one of the commercial capitals of the UK, creating some of the UK’s most recognised business empires from Cadbury’s, Bird’s Custard and Typhoo Tea, to Lloyds Bank! Due to Birmingham’s busy environment its history in the bakery industry is unlike any other.
Baking in the UK has a fairly short history, with home baking not becoming popular until about 150 years ago and most professionally made breads and cakes only being available to the wealthy upper class. These products were out of reach of ordinary working class folk due to the majority of the products being yeast or ale based and full of expensive spices like saffron from the British Empire. During the 17th century, when the bakery industry really began to take off in the UK, Birmingham had its focus on industrialisation.
Being one of the first and biggest industrialised cities in the UK, many residents living in Birmingham and the surrounding areas found themselves getting jobs with lower incomes due to an increase in positions needed to be filled in bigger companies. This, however, left most people in the Midlands on a working-class wage and unable to afford the fancy cakes and breads that were so loved by the upper classes. This isn’t to say that baked products weren’t popular, they just weren’t as high class in appearance as other products made across the country.
Some popular Birmingham and the Black Country bakery products include, bread pudding, lardy cake, rice pudding cake, caraway seed cake and rock cake. Although none of these products specifically come from Birmingham or the area around it, they were extremely popular in bakeries and amongst home bakers due to them being cheap to make and creating uses for food that would otherwise be thrown away, like stale bread and lard.
Many families in Birmingham in the 1800s would have to work incredibly hard for long periods of time to earn a living, so to keep everyone going all day food had to be nourishing and filling, which often gave them the nicknames “rib stickers” or “bally-fillers”. Of the different bakes, bread pudding was one of the most common “bally-filler” due to its effectiveness at stopping people from going hungry all day; it was also very simple to make, which made it even more appealing. People simply soaked any leftover bread in water (or milk for better off families), until it was soft enough to be torn up, and then once the liquid was drained off, they added in suet, sugar, mixed spice and dried fruit before also adding in a bit of egg, then baking for a few hours. Bread pudding is served cold and variations can still be found today in bakeries across Birmingham and the Black Country.
Lardy cake too is a Birmingham favourite as lardy cake was filling, sweet and affordable. Lard was generally cheap due to it being a bi-product from butchers. Even though lard is not as commonly used today, it was vital back around the 1800-1900s as every last piece of food that could be consumed was being utilised. The lard used in lardy cake helped to give it a buttery texture and give the illusion of being a fancier product, if the bakers added in additional ingredients like different spices that would be rarely seen in the area. Lardy cake was made by rolling out bread dough and then covering it with softened lard before sprinkling on dried fruit (usually raisins or currents) and sugar. It would then be folded up in thirds to create layers of lard between dough and then baked. Although many southern areas of the UK claim to have the original recipe and be the true owners of lardy cake, the only thing we can be sure of is that it was loved in Birmingham! These days, lardy cake can still be found in a lot of traditional bakeries around Birmingham just like bread pudding.

Unlike most students of the Mathematical Department, Sonya is fond of not
only programming but also sports. One fine day she went to play football
with her friends. Unfortunately, there was no football field anywhere
around. There only was a lonely birch tree in a corner of the yard. Sonya
searched the closet at her home, found two sticks, and decided to
construct a football goal using the sticks and the tree. Of course, the
birch would be one of the side posts of the goal. It only remained to make
the other post and the crossbar.
Sonya wanted to score as many goals as possible, so she decided to
construct a goal of maximum area. She knew that the standard football goal
was rectangular, but, being creative, she assumed that her goal could have
the form of an arbitrary quadrangle.
You can assume that the birch tree is a segment of a straight line
orthogonal to the ground.
The only line contains integers a and b, which are the lengths of the
sticks (1 ≤ a, b ≤ 10 000). It is known that the total length of
the sticks is less than the height of the birch tree.
Output the maximum area of the goal that can be constructed with the use
of the sticks and the birch tree. The answer must be accurate to at least
six fractional digits.

Team Novo, Supporting Diabetes Through Cycling
At the end of February 2019, The UAE Tour was on. This bicycle road race covers almost 1,200km throughout the country.
Who Are Team Novo Nordisk?
Team Novo Nordisk were back in the UAE in 2019 to participate in the inaugural 2019 UAE Tour, after taking part in 2018 in Abu Dhabi (prior to 2019, Dubai and Abu Dhabi had separate tours).
We only learned about this cycling team last year by accident when my parents were visiting us in Dubai from the USA, and they saw the 2018 Dubai Tour being promoted on a local sports station. My father told me an announcer had mentioned that the athletes from Team Novo Nordisk taking part had Type 1 Diabetes.
I was shocked and excited at the same time. What? A team of professional athletes who all have Type 1?
We have met competitive athletes and professionals who have Type 1 Diabetes before, but to see an entire team of elite cyclists with Type 1 Diabetes was amazing.
Why We Support Team Novo
After I saw this shift, I wanted nothing more than for others with diabetes to experience the same thing.
We went to several stages of the race and it was so inspiring to see the team and inspiring for those with diabetes, particularly Type 1, to meet the team.
Team Novo Supporting Diabetes… And My Son!
I was truly humbled and am still at a loss for words when Team Novo team made my son their fan of the race:
Cyclist Sam Brand rode the entire race with Erin’s name on his bike from Stage 2 – approximately 1,074km! It is definitely something my son will never forget, and it has boosted his confidence in his ability to live with diabetes.
As a parent, I am so happy that my son has such a positive role model.
The feedback that I received from parents after the race has been nothing but positive:
Thank you for encouraging us to go out to the race. Such a big day for us to see others in the same situation achieving success. My daughter was on cloud 9 she was so excited and couldn’t believe that they do everything that she does on a daily basis and still manage to cycle for 3–4 hours straight. As a parent it’s a wonderful feeling to get a glimpse into your child’s future and know that they can live happy, healthy and successful lives. It’s all about believing it.
We were so excited to see Charles Planet defend the sprint jersey throughout the race. It is amazing to know that diabetes does not hold any one of these guys back.
To actually see them in person and know that they all have Type 1 is so inspiring!
The Uplifting Impact of Positive Role Models for People with Diabetes
The impact of athletes like Team Novo supporting diabetes is not limited to a single day of inspiration. Their positive and affirming impression is still with those who met them.
One mom was just telling me how her son, at age five, used Team Novo as an example as he advocated for himself at school.
Another parent is already rallying the community here in Dubai to get together to support Team Novo at Stage 1 in 2020.
Team Novo is now starting their European tour and are in Italy as I write this. Follow Team Novo on social media, and check their website to see when they are coming to a city near you. They compete all over the world.
I highly recommend getting out to a race or an appearance to meet Team Novo Nordisk. You will leave nothing short of inspired to chase your biggest dreams.
If you are interested in being a Team Novo Fan of the Race, you can apply here.

1) Create a template with 30 5x5 boards. Letter the first one in order (A-Y), then randomly scramble the rest of the boards with the letters. I put a "Z" at the top that will eventually become my title to the game. My template took me some time to create, mainly because I had to individually type in the letters, and I'm just super picky with making it look perfect! Here is what my template looks like:
You can create your own, if you'd like to save some time, you can check out mine here!
2) Now, I am going to use my Pythagorean Theorem game example to show how I turned these letters into the answers. Click "Replace" in the upper right corner. In the "Find what" field, type in 'A', then type your answer to your first game question, for example the answer to my first question of my Pythagorean Theorem game is 8.9, so I typed 8.9 into the "Replace with" field. Then click "Replace All"
Microsoft Word will tell you that it made 30 replacements. So all A's are now 8.9. Click Ok.
3) Do the same process for B through Y.
4) Now for the game title. Just do the same process with the "Replace" function. Replace "Z" with the name of your game, in my case "Pythagorean Theorem Bingo!"
Then you are done! You now have 30 individual boards to play bingo!
The final product will look like this:

That will now be phased in around 6 decades, but is much less generous than the U.K. had requested, the BBC said.
There is a very clear motivation not to reduced benchmarks on the natural environment, workers’ rights and weather adjust from those people that now exist and mechanisms to enforce them, the BBC described.
Nevertheless, it additional that there is also a mutual appropriate to “rebalance” the agreement if there are “significant divergences” in the foreseeable future able of “impacting trade.”
Equally, the limitations payment for unfair subsidies to businesses “do not apply” in cases these kinds of as all-natural disasters, the BBC mentioned. That will exempt the EU’s significant latest pandemic assist bundle for aviation, aerospace, weather change and electric powered cars and trucks.
Britain clinched a slim Brexit trade offer with the European Union on Thursday, just 7 times ahead of it exits just one of the world’s biggest investing blocs.
The deal will maintain Britain’s zero-tariff and zero-quota obtain to the bloc’s solitary current market of 450 million consumers, but will not prevent financial ache and disruption for the U.K. or for EU member states.
The U.K. formally left the EU on Jan. 31 but has because been in a changeover interval beneath which principles on trade, travel and small business remained unchanged right up until the finish of this calendar year.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK
December 2, 2011
FRANCISCO CASTRO, CARLOS FLORES, RAMON FLORES, MARIO MERLOS, EDWIN ROSADO AND OSCAR CHACON VILLALOBOS,
JAIDAN INDUSTRIES, INC. AND RICHARD SUSSMAN, DEFENDANTS.
JASON NIETO A/K/A JONATHAN NIETO, MARVIN RIVERA, MARIO MERLOS, EVER BARRANZA, WILMER BUSTILLO, EDWIN ENAMORADO, DAVID FLORES, CARLOS FLORES, DIONICIO FLORES A/K/A MARVIN FLORES, LUIS HENRIQUEZ, EDUARDO MEJIA, JESUS MEJIA A/K/A JOSE ZEPEDA, DANIEL MONCADA, OSCAR RODRIGUEZ A/K/A OSCAR TRUJILLO, EDWIN ROSADO, FRANCISCO SANTOS, JUAN SANTOS A/K/A JUAN SUNIGA, CARLOS VASQUEZ, OSCAR CHACON VILLALOBOS, JOEL VILLALOBOS A/K/A MILTON CARRASCO, PLAINTIFFS,
JAIDAN INDUSTRIES, INC., RICHARD SUSSMAN, RHONDA SUSSMAN, AND JUAN CARLOS CHICAS A/K/A CARLOS CHICAS, DEFENDANTS.
The opinion of the court was delivered by: Seybert, District Judge:
The Court is in receipt of Defendants' letter dated November 30, 3011 requesting that the Court (i) "order plaintiffs to choose one forum to litigate this matter and to discontinue the other action or to dismiss this federal action in favor of the earlier-filed state court complaint," (Defs. Ltr. 1), and (ii) to quash eight non-party discovery subpoenas. The Court will address each request separately.
I. Motion to Dismiss Concurrent and Duplicative Action
On May 11, 2010, Plaintiffs commenced the action at docket number 10-CV-2154 ("2010 Federal Action") seeking to recover unpaid wages from Defendants under the Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C. § 201 et seq. ("FLSA"). On July 25, 2011, Plaintiffs commenced an action in the New York State Supreme Court, Kings County, ("State Court Action") against Defendants seeking to recover prevailing wages under the FLSA and asserting violations of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, 18 U.S.C. § 1961 et seq. ("RICO"). On October 27, 2011, Plaintiffs commenced the action at docket number 11-CV-5249 ("2011 Federal Action"); the 2011 Federal Action is identical to the State Court Action. Based on representations Plaintiffs would discontinue their State Court Action, on November 16, 2011, the Court consolidated the 2010 Federal Action and the 2011 Federal Action. Plaintiffs have yet to discontinue their State Court Action and, according to Defendants, appear to be actively litigating the same case in both forums simultaneously.
"Generally, as between state and federal courts, the rule is that the pendency of an action in the state court is no bar to proceedings concerning the same matter in the Federal court having jurisdiction." Colo. River Water Conservation Dist. v. United States, 424 U.S. 800, 817, 96 S. Ct. 1236, 47 L. Ed. 2d 483 (1976) (internal quotation marks and citation omitted); accord Kytel Int'l Grp. v. Rent A Center, Inc., 43 F. App'x 420, 422 (2d Cir. 2002). A federal court, nevertheless, may abstain in favor of the state forum "for reasons of wise judicial administration," including the convenience of the federal forum, the desirability of avoiding piecemeal litigation and waste of judicial resources, and the order in which jurisdiction was obtained. Colo. River, 424 U.S. at 818; see also Arkwright-Boston Mfrs. Mut. Ins. Co. v. N.Y.C., 762 F.2d 205, 211 (2d Cir. 1985) (affirming district court's abstention, in part, because "inconsistent disposition of [the state and federal actions] would breed additional litigation on assertions of claim and issue preclusion" and "'such concurrent proceedings creates the serious potential for spawning an unseemly and destructive race to see which forum can resolve the same issues first'" (quoting Ariz. v. San Carlos Apache Tribe of Ariz., 463 U.S. 545, 547, 103 S. Ct. 3201, 77 L. Ed. 2d 837 (1983))).
Plaintiffs assert that Defendants are violating a Temporary Restraining Order ("TRO") signed by the Kings County Supreme Court, so they will only "discontinue the State Action once adequate protections are obtained in the Federal Action." (Pl. Opp. 2.) The Court finds that this does not justify identical parallel litigation in state and federal court. In fact, the "vexatious [and] reactive nature" of Plaintiffs' litigation strategy in both forums supports abstention. See Telesco v. Telesco & Masons' Materials, Inc., 765 F.2d 356, 363 (2d Cir. 1985 (quoting Moses H. Cone Mem. Hosp. v. Mercury Const. Corp., 460 U.S. 1, 17 n.20, 103 S. Ct. 927, 74 L. Ed. 2d 765 (1983)).
If Plaintiffs refuse to discontinue the State Court Action, the Court is inclined to abstain from adjudicating the 2011 Federal Action and to dismiss the claims therein. Thus, Plaintiffs are hereby ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE by December 15, 2011, why this Court should not abstain from adjudicating the duplicative claims in the 2011 Federal Action. If Defendants' wish to reply, such memorandum must be filed on or before December 22, 2011.*fn1
II. Motion to Quash Non-Party Subpoenas
Defendants also move this Court to quash eight non- party subpoenas. All discovery issues must be directed to the assigned magistrate judge; accordingly, Defendants' request is DENIED with leave to renew before Magistrate Judge E. Thomas Boyle.
For the foregoing reasons, the Court (i) RESERVES JUDGMENT on Defendants' motion to dismiss; (ii) ORDERS Plaintiffs to show cause by December 15, 2011 why the 2011 Federal Action should not be dismissed, and (iii) DENIES Defendants' motion to quash with leave to renew before Judge Boyle.

Police have charged an 18-year-old man with threatening to put a bomb in a public place, a day after he notified school officials he found a written bomb threat in a boy's bathroom.
Alexander Wahl, 18, of Tiverton, was released on bail following his arraignment in District Court.
Police said they received a call from Tiverton High School officials on March 17 that a student said he found a threat printed on toilet paper. According to police, the threat said a bomb would go off on March 19.
Police say Wahl delivered the threat to school officials after students had been dismissed.
Police ordered the school evacuated, and then the building was search by the bomb squad. Nothing was found.
Later, detectives interviewed Wahl who admitted to them he made the threat. He told police he made the threat for no particular reason.

Defending the Northwest passage was an easier job in centuries past. The impenetrable Arctic ice kept everyone out until 1906, when Roald Amundsen finally conquered the passage.
More recently, however, a warming climate has made the idea of a circumpolar shipping route a real possibility. It has been speculated that the Northwest passage could be open for commercial traffic in as little as 15 years, nearly halving the distance by ship between Tokyo and London. For Canada’s new Conservative prime minister, Stephen Harper, that means more effort is required to keep it Canadian.
Long-standing US policy holds that navigable straits…

In 2001, a conservative, corporate-aligned think tank called the American Enterprise Institute (AEI) gave Justice Clarence Thomas the gift of a $15,000 bust of Abraham Lincoln. At the ceremony presenting Thomas with this very expensive gift, AEI president Christopher DeMuth explained that the bust was “cast in 1914 by the great neo-classical sculptor Adolph Alexander Weinman.” Watch it:
AEI, however, is not simply in the business of giving luxurious gifts to Supreme Court justices — it is also in the business of litigating before the United States Supreme Court. ThinkProgress uncovered three briefs that AEI filed in Thomas’ Court after Thomas received their $15,000 gift. Thomas recused from none of these three cases, and he either voted in favor of the result AEI favored or took a stance that was even further to the right in each case:
- Riley v. Kennedy: AEI filed a brief asking the Supreme Court to reverse a lower court decision preventing a change in Alabama’s voting law from going into effect. Justice Thomas did not recuse, and he joined the Supreme Court’s decision reversing the lower court.
- Parents Involved in Community Schools v. Seattle School District No. 1: AEI filed a brief asking the Supreme Court to reverse a lower court decisionupholding a local school district’s desegregation plan. Thomas joined the majority opinion reversing the lower court’s decision, and he filed a lengthy concurrence defending that result.
- Whitman v. American Trucking Association: AEI joined a brief asking the Supreme Court to allow the EPA to consider the costs of implementing new air quality standards before it issued them. Thomas’ concurring opinion went much further than AEI asked him to go, suggesting that the law authorizing EPA to issue these standards is unconstitutional.
Although there is no evidence that AEI gave Thomas the $15,000 gift specifically to buy his vote in a particular case, Thomas’ decision to sit on cases where his benefactor has a demonstrated interest creates a very serious appearance of impropriety. No one would trust a judge to hear their case if they learned that someone on the other side of the case had given that judge a rare and expensive gift.

i was using 5.1.1 but just installed 5.2.1 pro. how do you compress your movies?? settings.... I might be screwing up on all the bitrates, and Kbps stuff, thingies.....
Could you use like ffmpeg?
Actually, I prefer MPEG-4 over DivX.

About 50,000 runners started the New York City Marathon on Sunday — and they were the lucky ones. Only 17 percent of those who had entered a drawing that fills a third of the field were selected, and applications for those spots were up about 20 percent over the year before, according to race organizers.
But not every race is so popular. Road races have hit the wall. The number of finishers in events in the United States has fallen from a peak of about 19 million in 2013 to just over 17 million in 2016.
High fees, a glut of race options and competition from other fitness activities have shrunk the fields at many races.
“It’s possible we got too big too fast,” said Rich Harshbarger, the chief executive of Running USA, an industry group. Road races saw 300 percent growth in the number of finishers from 1990 to 2013, with a concentrated boom from 2008 to 2013. As participation recedes, Harshbarger expects some races to fold.
“We’ve still seen supply outstrip demand, and I think that’s going to change next year,” Harshbarger added.
Businesses that grew up around the boom have suffered, too. In June, Competitor Group, which operated the Rock ’n’ Roll Marathon race series and book and magazine publishing divisions, was acquired by Dalian Wanda, a Chinese real estate conglomerate that also owns Ironman. Last month, the magazine Competitor folded, and Competitor Group’s other publishing interests were sold.
Finish Line Sports sold its specialty running division in January, and the Rodale publishing company shuttered Running Times magazine last year. City Sports, an apparel retailer that catered to runners, filed for bankruptcy in 2015.
Most of running’s decline has come in what Running USA labeled the “other” distance — nontraditional events like mud runs and color runs. They account for about one million of the lost road-race finishers, Harshbarger said. He added that the problem was not necessarily that fewer people were running, but that they were doing it less often in organized events that charge fees.
“Events that aren’t professional managed or professional produced are going away, and then those left in the market are forced to get more creative,” he said. “Now everyone’s got bands on the course and beer at the finish line, so what’s new?”
Road races are also experiencing competition from things like studio classes, group yoga and CrossFit. High fees for races have also become an issue. In 2006, the average five-kilometer race cost $13.50, according to Road Race Management, an industry publication. Now the average is $34. In 2006, the average marathon cost $69.97. That’s now $123.
In a 2017 survey, Running USA found that 20 percent of runners expected to decrease their race participation. Half of the runners in the survey said they thought that races were too expensive and that cost was a top 10 factor in deciding whether or not to register for a race. The survey also indicated that six in 10 runners would participate in more races if fees were low.
Phil Stewart, the president of Road Race Management, said that prices had grown so quickly because they could — people kept paying them. But now races are starting to see price resistance.
“Back when you could enter a road race for $10 and you could enter a marathon for $25, the sport really had no appeal or very little appeal for for-profit businesses,” Stewart said. “But then we moved into an era where people would pay $85 for a half and $135 for a marathon. That’s when you really had all the for-profit groups, and it just transformed the model.”
Stewart specifically cited the Rock ’n’ Roll Marathon race series, which put a heavy focus on the social experience of running events and charged high prices for it. (Fees for races in its 2017 Las Vegas race series are $79.99 for the 5K up to $179.99 for the marathon.)
Jean Knaack, the executive director of the Road Runners Club of America, said that running is “at the plateau.”
“While we’re seeing the decline on the event side,” she said, “people are still staying active in their clubs.”
Less formal running groups are also creating opportunities that compete with paid events. Dave Welsh, the owner of three stores in South Jersey that cater to runners, said that after three years of decline, his business had leveled off. While he still sees a lot of interest in the sport, he also recognizes that free races or group runs are likely to lure people away from events with fees.
In 2016, Welsh started the Run856 Facebook group, which now has more than 3,000 members and organizes two group runs a month. Members often form smaller weekly meet-ups on their own. One of the most prominent fitness groups in the United States, the November Project, began in Boston in 2011 and now has dozens of chapters. It charges no fees.
The athletic event industry is expected to grow by 1.7 percent over the next five years, according to IBISWorld, a market research group. The category comprises running, walking, cycling and multi-activity events like triathlons, with running events making up 41.8 percent, said Rory Masterson, the lead analyst at IBISWorld.
“There’s been a significant increase in variety of events,” Masterson said, adding that road races would have to keep battling for participants — and dollars — within that realm.
Knaack said she expected the big, marquee races — like marathons in New York City, Boston and Chicago, and 10-mile races in Washington and Philadelphia — to remain in demand, even if they are expensive. The New York City Marathon, for example, costs $295. The Boston Marathon, which will cost $185 in 2018, has also had increased demand, with 2,000 more runners applying for qualifier spots for the 2018 race than did for 2017.
“Those races are still selling out, which is a testament that the sport is still strong,” Knaack said. “But they can’t get any bigger. I think people are still gravitating toward those races because they know they’re going to get the bang for their buck.”
Not every road race, she added, will have such robust support.
“A lot of what happened is during the massive rise, you got a lot of opportunists that hopped in thinking that I’ll put on an event and make a gazillion dollars,” she said. “That’s not how the industry works. Just because you built it doesn’t mean that people will come.”

SOSUA, Dominican Republic (AP) — Police stormed the compound with guns drawn, killing a man and declaring they had uncovered a heavily armed European cult suspected of plotting against the government and trafficking in human organs.
They found no sign of any organ trafficking, but officials say something unusual was going on behind the walls of the Academy for Future Health, where several dozen mostly German expatriates had set up a secretive spiritual group whose website warns of UFOs, the evils of the U.S. government and looming global turmoil. More disturbingly, officers seized an arsenal that included military-grade assault weapons, other firearms, body armor, targets and a crossbow.
On Tuesday, a judge ruled there is enough evidence to try 62-year-old sect leader Peter Brunck and his son, Daniel Roland, on weapons violations and a charge of “rebellion.” They face up to 10 years in prison, and prosecutors said further counts are possible.
But nearly a year after the October raid, the police involved in the operation are also in prosecutors’ sights.
Authorities are looking into charges that officers beat Brunck and his son while they were handcuffed, shot at an unarmed gardener and stole some of the $1.5 million in cash and personal property confiscated in the operation.
“This was a looting,” says Jose Carlos Gonzalez, a lawyer for Brunck.
Ulrich Muhl, a spokesman for the group, dismissed allegations that anything sinister was going on at the compound. “The basic idea is to give people a place to live … a tranquil, spiritual life, to search for the truth,” he said, adding that members of the group were armed because they feared crime.
“We are not criminals,” Muhl said. “None of the things they said about us have been confirmed, nor can they be, because it’s all a big lie.”
Still, the group’s mix of firearms and apocalyptic musings has many concerned, including some who have seen Brunck’s teachings first hand.
The Academy for Future Health’s German-language website says the planet is “cleansing itself of the debris that lives on its surface,” and goes on to mention aspects of the global financial crisis, extraterrestrials and the looming fall of the “inhuman” U.S. government.
Klaus Muller, a disaffected former member who lives near the compound, said Brunck had predicted the world would come to a catastrophic end in August 2012 and had stockpiled food, weapons and equipment, including an ambulance at the compound in Sosua, about 140 miles (225 kilometers) north of Santo Domingo.
Everyone in the compound, no matter what age, were required to learn how to shoot, he said.
“These people don’t live in reality,” Muller said of the two-dozen or so families on the 50-acre site.
Surveillance videos of the raid provided by the group show police in body armor descending on the gated entry of the compound of red-tiled Spanish-style homes. Several officers are seen kicking and hitting Brunck as he argues with them in his German-accented Spanish. Shots rang out shortly after officers went in. Police shot and killed group member Peter Dittrich, and arrested his wife for allegedly shooting back at them.
Two high-ranking officers have already been suspended, and prosecutors say 11 other officers are suspected of robbery. In addition, three officers stand accused of using unprovoked force. If convicted, several of the Dominican police could face even more jail time than the two Germans.
Allegations of misconduct by Dominican police are common. Several high-ranking officers have been charged in recent years with aiding drug traffickers. In November, the country saw some of the largest demonstrations in years, fueled in part by the fatal police shooting of an unarmed university student. A 2011 Amnesty International report said police killed more than 2,000 people from 2005 through 2010, accounting for about 15 percent of all homicides.
Dominican Attorney General Dominguez Brito acknowledged that some of the $1.5 million in electronic devices, jewelry, vehicles, cash and other property that police seized had gone missing, and vowed to punish any officers involved.
Local prosecutor Alba Nunez said investigators had uncovered a number of police “irregularities,” including allegations that police shot an unarmed Haitian gardener without provocation and assaulted compound residents. Nunez said she expects some officers will face charges of aggravated robbery, which can carry a sentence of up to 20 years.
But she added that the members of the spiritual group were far from blameless.
“The German citizens want to present themselves just as victims but that’s not the case,” she said. “They have committed very serious crimes.”

It’s anyone’s guess whether Jersey Shore fans will continue to tune into this Reality TV wreck with fewer or no appearances by Snooki and The Situation.
Snooki’s burlesque ensembles, high-hair and partying ways are a big draw, but the mother-to-be will hopefully simmer down. As for The Situation, MTV producers will likely debate whether his replacement must have the trademark washboard abs.
The network will probably rely on the remaining cast members to pull their weight. J-Woww’s new figure and the ongoing drama between Sammi and on-again, off-again beau, Ronnie, could be a draw. Or, perhaps, Vinny and Pauly D will turn it up. Stay tuned and read more about the next season here.

Raising the service stakes: one in five Canadians have used social media to get a customer service response and expect more for their loyalty
- New research by Amex finds social savvy consumers have higher service standards -
TORONTO, Sept. 25, 2012 /CNW/ - Social media is a burgeoning channel for customer service with one in five Canadians (18%) having used social media to get a customer service response at least once in the past year. The American Express Global Customer Service Barometer found that Canadian consumers who have used social media for service can have an impact on a company's bottom line. They tell significantly more people about their good service experiences, and 14 per cent are more likely to have not made an intended purchase in the past year due to a poor service experience.
"It's important that today's consumers are able to engage with companies across multiple channels," says Marc Hollenberg, Vice President of Customer Experience at American Express Canada. "And social media is a great way for consumers to have a two-way conversation, but it is important to have a process in place to address customer inquiries in a timely manner."
The annual survey is conducted in 11 countries and explores consumer attitudes and preferences about customer service. This year's survey revealed seven in ten consumers said they are willing to spend more with a company they believe provides excellent customer service. Canadians who use social media for a service response say they'd spend 17 per cent more with companies who deliver great service - compared to 12% on average.
Good or bad, consumers are spreading the word on service
When it comes to poor experiences, consumers are significantly more likely to talk about it. Three in five (63%) tell others about a poor service experience all the time, while just over half (54%) will tell others about good experiences as frequently.
Compared to last year, consumers tell more people about their customer service experiences, both good and bad. On average, they tell 13 people about their good experiences (up from 9 in 2011), and 21 people about their bad experiences (up from 16 in 2011).
Canadian companies fail to stack up to service expectations
This year's survey revealed a sallow state for service. Nearly a third (32%) of Canadian consumers believe that businesses pay less attention to providing good customer service, a significant increase from 2011 (24%). What's more, in the past year, three in five consumers (61%) intended to conduct a business transaction or make a purchase, but decided not to based on a poor service experience.
"Creating an exceptional service experience is just good business," says Hollenberg. "Canadians have more choices than ever before on where they spend their dollars, and are looking to create an emotional connection with the brands they choose."
Canadians are losing their cool with poor service experiences
With 32 per cent of consumers reporting that companies usually miss their expectations for customer service, Canadians are beginning to lose their cool. More than a third of consumers lost their temper with a customer service professional in the past year (34%). Of those who lost their temper, Canadians have expressed their frustration in a variety of ways:
- Insisted on speaking with a supervisor (66%)
- Threatened to switch to a competitor (43%)
- Hung up the phone (39%)
- Demanded to know the customer service professional's name (27%)
- Stormed out of the store (21%)

"Anytime a customer is speaking with a customer service professional, it's a chance to not only answer their inquiry to their satisfaction, but to an opportunity to deepen the emotional connection, which can ultimately drive customer loyalty," says Hollenberg.

David Tepper is turning out to be very different from most NFL owners.
Speaking in an appearance on CNBC, the new owner of the Panthers said the league should do more to highlight the work that players do for their local communities. Tepper also challenged the President’s assertion that NFL players who kneel during the national anthem are unpatriotic.
These are some of the most patriotic people. . . best people. These are great young men. So to say that it just makes me so aggravated and angry. It’s just wrong. It’s just dead wrong.
Watch the whole clip from CNBC below.

image from event’s presentation courtesy of University of Macerata.
Organized by the Department of Education, Cultural heritage and Tourism at the University of Macerata, the first round table of the Erasmus+ project I² Identity and Innovation is planned on 27-28-29-30 September 2021 as an online event.
The choice of a virtual meeting is due to the uncertainities of the covid-19 pandemic, nevertheless the rich programme of online seminars will explore for anyone interested key topics such as:
Which is the value of the school heritage, tangible and/or intangible heritage, and in particular the built heritage (historical school buildings), for the future citizens’ education?
How can teachers work on key competences in a creative way by using cultural heritage as an instrument to develop educational tools and learning materials that allow:
a. To promote creativity and innovation (i.e. transversal key competences),
b. To reach – at the same time – the necessary goals in education i.e. by developing disciplinary knowledge and competences following both the national standards and the European Reference Framework for Key Competences (EC 2018).
Round Table: Creativity and key competences
- 1st day: The educational use of school photographs in the museum/in schools
- 2nd day: Collecting Oral histories, between the school and the museum
- 3rd day: Preserving the Educational heritage in schools as a learning activity
- 4th day: Historical schools, the built heritage and the new technologies
The activities for all participants are set each day from 9 to 11 am CEST, including each day a lecture by experts from the hosting partner University of Macerata and an additional presentation by another of the I² partners.
Lectures and presentations will showcase best practices and case studies; offer analysis of products a/o reports, scientific articles etc.; present guidelines and tools for education; point to bibliography, links to online projects, databases etc.
The full programme of lectures will be available soon, and participation is upon invitation (contact firstname.lastname@example.org if interested)
The afternoons are reserved to meetings and discussions of project’s partners.

I think November is our month. What I mean by that is, November is Diabetes Awareness month and Adoption Awareness month. These two things apply to 6 of our 8 children. If you have been reading this blog you probably already know we have three children with type 1 diabetes. What you might not know, is that we have three adopted children as well. Both of these issues are important to our family so I will probably be talking/writing about them a lot this month. To kick off the first day of this month I would like to take a break from talking about diabetes and focus on adoption.
Adoption is Tricky
Adoption and all that comes with it plays a huge role in the dynamic of our family. The problem is our adoption is tricky for me to write about. I think the reason is twofold. One, I want to be as honest as I can about our adoption experience without discouraging others from considering adoption. Two, I want to be careful to not share too much personally about my adopted children because in all honesty it is not my story to tell. The decision to share or not share their story is up to them.
I took this photo of my husband and (at the time) 10 year old son in early June. When I snapped it I had no intention of sharing it publicly because I was not sure I would be able to convey the significance of the moment. I thought about sharing it with a shout out to my husband on Father’s Day but it still felt too sacred. Now that I have had a little more time to let the image soak into my thoughts I decided I need to share it. We met our son 4 years ago and officially adopted him 3 years ago. Through no fault of his own, he experienced significant, life impacting trauma prior to coming to our home. The impacts of trauma can be profound and lifelong but they can also be lessened with the right relationships, therapies and sometimes medication. The problem is recovery can be slow. Slow like a snail going uphill on a slippery surface in the rain slow. As a result it can be hard to see progress or measure success because it is so painfully slow. But every once in a while God gives us a measurable difference that cannot be denied and this photo is proof. But I will get to that in a minute.
Do you watch the Today Show? If so you might be familiar with one of the hosts on the show named Hoda Kotb. She recently adopted her second infant daughter and thanks to her notoriety, adoption is getting a lot of positive attention. I am so happy to see a positive light being shed on adoption but if I am being honest I am a little jealous. I am not jealous of Hoda’s obvious elation at being able to adopt two beautiful girls but rather the ease at which she has seemingly bonded with them. Hoda (and a few other adoptive parents I know) talk about the moment they laid eyes on their child they felt a strong connection that cemented their feelings that this child belonged with them. That was not how things worked out for me. The agency we adopted through did all they could to prepare us for adoption but nothing can truly prepare you for the impact trauma has on a child and the subsequent impact it can have on the rest of the family. They had night terrors and tantrums. They got in trouble at church, at school and on the bus. They hoarded food or ate until it made them sick. They wanted physical affection but would only accept it from strangers. I wanted physical affection and interaction to feel natural. I wanted them to understand they are safe. I wanted an immediate maternal bond. My children felt like strangers or like children we were babysitting when they first came to us.
Past Trauma, Present Behavior
I used to be ashamed to admit that I did not immediately bond with our kids. Not anymore. Even biological mothers can have trouble bonding with their baby, especially if they experienced a traumatic birth. Every birth story is different. Every adoption story is different as well. Past trauma not present behavior was our enemy. You will notice I said “our” enemy. Ours because when we chose to adopt we chose to join the battle to hopefully one day overcome their broken past. But sometimes in the midst of battle you cannot see the forest through the trees. You can get tunnel vision and not realize that even though it feels like you are being pushed back you have actually advanced. This photo is my way of stepping back and realizing we have advanced. I cannot remember specific details of this moment but I do remember Jim and I were chatting and as our son walked by my husband said something in a teasing manner towards him. Instead of smiling and continuing to walk by, our son teased back and then naturally (without asking) crawled up into Jim’s lap and started a conversation. It was such a natural and easy interaction between a Dad and his son that you would have never known this did not normally happen in our home. I don’t know what made this day different. I don’t know why we were suddenly victorious when it felt like we were losing. How we made it here is not as important as the fact that we are here and here is a good place to be.
Just Do It
If you are considering adoption may I encourage you to take the first step? Adoption is not always an easy road but it can be very rewarding. I am without a doubt a better person because we said yes to three little people.

Does anyone here have problems on one side? My rheumatoid doctor was leaning toward a Fibro diagnosis for me. I still need to clear more tests. I am mainly impacted on my left side, though muscle twitces and spasms are bodywide. I am having a lot of GI problems. I get dizzy, lose visual acquity (on-and-off), and have tender spots that feel like bruises but there's no discoloration. Some of the tender spots are off the Fibro map, others are not. I have IBS, had that for years, but it's been really acting up. Lately, eating is so bothersome that I try to just nibble. The muscles on the left side of my arm are so sore, feels like someone hit me with a bat. I am not extra tired, never have been, but I am sore and stiff and it lasts most of the days.
I'm about to go back for another round of tests as we do the rule-out that we started last year.
I had neurotin but stopped it, thinking I should start taking it again. I do know that the Xanax seems to help me with pain, I take a super small dose because I don't want to be tired.
Anyway, curious if there's anyone else here that has one-sided problems. For me, it's my left side.
I met a woman on this board last year who did, I'd love to find her on this board again and hear from others. I'm going back to the see rheumatoid doctor soon
This wearing me out with anxiety and worry, been going on for more than a year now, really started with a bad series of colds the year before and I had a small window where I felt good last summer, which rapidly closed down on me on Nov. 4 last year and it's been hell since.
I did just get some epidural steriod shots for the neck pain but they did not work long. I am not doing that again, I can't anyway.
when you have your tests ask for the sjogrens blood test too. it's one they don't do and i wish they did cause i have it and it's been there years doing it's damage unchecked. the symptoms are very much like fibro and easily missed.
mine is my right side. i have ablations, injections, nerve blocks and massage. for years i thought it was fibro only to find out i was wrong. it's my spine and sjogrens. next step is a neurosurgeon and possibly surgery.
from the beginning tho it was my right side that went the weakest. i hope you do not have fibro. i hope you are fixable! do eye drops help your vision?
p.s. welcome back.
I tested negative for Sjogrens. I have a great neurologist. I should be going back to him soon. I hope whatever this is, it's fixable too. I am not well, my husband isn't either and we have a young child with special needs. I'm pretty scared by all this. I was on the fence today about going to the ER I hurt so much, but my kid is sick and home from school so, for the next two days, I'm not going anywhere. I smile and act like nothing is wrong. That is pretty hard to do.
so glad to hear you were tested. i also have a special needs child. well, he is 33 now and considers himself a man. he is living on his own for the first time. talk about worry!!! giggle. i am sorry your husband is not well. healing hugs for all 3 of you. glad you have a good doctor. they are priceless.
i shall continue to hope you do not have fibro. it is not an easy path, however with time and learning your own body it can be managed. i have had it for 17 years. adapting to the pain comes with time, patience and breath.
many hugs to you. being the mother of a special needs kid is hard work, yet i would not trade my son for any other human. he is so sweet. my babyman. i love that he still calls me momma.

Heather Locklear is not off the hook for her June arrest in which she allegedly attacked a cop and an EMT.
TMZ reported on Aug. 30 that the "Melrose Place" actress has officially been hit with three new charges, including one misdemeanor count of interfering with a law enforcement officer and two counts of misdemeanor battery for allegedly attacking the first responders.
On June 24, the 80s star was arrested and booked on two counts of misdemeanor battery upon an officer and emergency personnel. During that incident, Heather allegedly hit a deputy who was trying to separate her and her family members. She allegedly kicked an EMT while she was being put on a gurney, TMZ reported at the time.
The EMT that she allegedly kicked has claimed he suffered serious injuries.
Prior to the arrest, Heather was taken to the hospital in Los Angeles for a psychiatric evaluation when a family member reported that actress was having suicidal thoughts. TMZ reported that police and medical personnel showed up to the star's home on June 17 following a family member's 911 call indicating Heather was threatening to kill herself.
Days later, TMZ reported that Heather was preparing to move from the hospital's mental ward to begin a long-term stay at a facility where psychiatrists and staff doctors can better treat her serious substance abuse and mental health problems.

Spindled tickets desire not much more from their makers
than the basic recognition of their proper utility
in the overblown social experiment
known as customer ordering and service rendering.
Once stabbed and stacked, impaled indefinitely,
our punctured pals wish not to be moved
until they and their carbon paper cousins
all make the grand pilgrimage together.
When each new spent batch has been manhandled
and hurtled to the hallowed trash can (the one
with the mass-produced “Law & Oarder” bumper sticker
carelessly splashed onto it as a graffiti-hider
and exercise in pointless consumerism)–the one
that a wise old papyrus once celebrated
as heaven incarnate–contagious catharsis
sweeps through the crinkled pile.
Since all their common ancestors disappeared forever
upon meeting the can of destiny, the soon-deceased
sensibly assume that it must be a pretty swell place
to stick around for a solid chunk of time (probably
just positively loaded with recreational activities).
No panicky paper here, no sir. Delusional, definitely,
but not a hint of panic!

I almost got in a bar fight a few months back. I would feel better about this whole episode if I was sorry. The problem is that I’m not sorry.
A friend of mine volunteered at a nursing home. One of the patients there was always talking about riding and my friend thought that maybe I could come along and talk horses with her. That was what I knew when I entered her room.

BLUE BELL, Pa., June 29, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE Amex: INO), a leader in the development of therapeutic and preventive vaccines against cancers and infectious diseases, announced today that its therapeutic DNA vaccine for prostate cancer showed remarkable immune responses in monkeys, following similarly strong, antigen-specific and sustainable T cell levels in previously reported data from earlier animal studies. The data was presented by Dr. J. Joseph Kim, Ph.D., president & CEO of Inovio, at the BIO International Convention in Washington, DC. The strength of this new large animal data reinforces Inovio's plan to start a Phase I clinical trial for this prostate cancer DNA vaccine (INO-5150) by mid-year 2012.
In this monkey trial, vaccinations with INO-5150, Inovio's SynCon™ therapeutic DNA vaccine for prostate cancer, generated strong and robust T cell immune responses. The level of T cell responses from this INO-5150 study was similar to the level of T cell responses observed from a previously conducted monkey study of VGX-3100, Inovio's Phase II-stage therapeutic vaccine for cervical cancer and dysplasia. In a Phase I study, VGX-3100 generated best-in-class T cell responses, which were persistent through the complete study duration of nine months.
In a prior study in mice, INO-5150 immunization induced potent antibody and T cell responses, providing initial evidence that its concept for a therapeutic DNA vaccine comprising a broader collection of antigens, administered with Inovio's electroporation-based delivery technology, would improve the breadth and effectiveness of a prostate cancer immunotherapy. Furthermore, the SynCon™ DNA vaccine evaluated in this study was generated by the creation of PSA and PSMA synthetic consensus immunogens based on human and macaque sequences, which enabled the amino acid sequences of th

Your project should focus on boys. Take a look at my Lunagirl shop for boys on digital collage sheets and more on CD, and don't miss the Design Team inspiration below! (My challenge banner uses frames from my Victorian Vintage Blank Labels CD plus vintage boys from my digital collage sheets.)
Here are the challenge guidelines:
Of course I love if you use at least one Lunagirl.com product, and I hope you'll go take a look at my collection... but that's not a requirement. However, remember that if you use a Lunagirl image, you will be entered TWICE in the drawing! I want to welcome everyone and every style but also give a little something extra to my wonderful customers!
LUNAGIRL MOONBEAMS DESIGN TEAM
To get you started, here is an adorable little guy on a bookmark created by Michele Storms, perfect for our boys-themed challenge and also for Back-to-School Time!
as the mom of one child, a son, i love being challenged to deliver up some good things featuring boys. i made a bookmark on the "back to school" theme since that time is right around the corner. i used an image from your african american CD and the rainbow butterflies sheet (because boys can take flight too of course -- and truly learning gives you wings!) the rest is stuff from my stash.
|Here's another adorable little guy on this arch created by MANDY CHILVERS. I love the aged look and muted colors. (Little boy photo from Little Boys Photos.)|
Here he is again on a tag by Vicki Romaine! I love the vintage style of this one, with the sepia and copper colors.
My tag has a page from an old paperback book as a background base. The Lunagirl image was placed under wrapped vintage twine. Down the left side is a piece of shinny cooper-looking cardstock cut from an old Christmas card. At the top is a medallion piece that had been smashed in a coin-smashing machine

The new owners of Schatz ordered in 2008 a complete refit of the ketch allowing more space to store personal belongings in the passenger cabins, modernizing the galley and refrigerators, new wet bar, satellite TV to receive hundreds of channels, 46 inch high definition plasma TV, laminating the hull and changing both masts, running rigging and lines including new Harken winches to make sailing a pleasure.
We have designed a sitting area on the bow section of the deck for cocktails at sunset. The owner ordered a second refit project which started in December 2012 and she was delivered at the end of May 2013. The refit work conducted on Schatz was extensive and included major work such as, making new engine room and collision bulkheads which were watertight, a complete new teak decking, topsides where faired then cladded in sapelli wood & woven glass fiber covered then with international perfection plus varnish, a bar was designed and installed on the aft deck, topside windows were modified and new tempered windows were placed, the steel masts were removed and new aluminum masts were manufactured, 2 new generators, new exhausts systems and shafts were installed, a complete re-arrangement of the engine room was conducted with new insulation and aluminum paneling, all tanks apart from the fuel tanks were replaced with new polyethylene tanks and the entire plumbing was re-done, new showers, toilets and pumps were installed, the interior floors were re-varnished and the walls were touched up where necessary, all the chrome on the yacht was polished, the exterior of the boat was completely re-painted and re-varnished to make her look brand new.
SCHATZ is a charter yacht with excellent record that has all the comforts expected in a large gullet - refitted to the highest standards in 2013 with no expense spared on final fittings. She offers immense deck space that is ideal for relaxing and entertaining.
The yacht provides very comfortable accommodation for 10 guests in 5 spacious air-conditioned cabins, and she is available for charter in Turkish and Greek water.

You may be surprised to know that Colorado Springs has a foreign policy — and it's not some vague, feel-good document touting God, Tim Tebow and the American Way.
Nope, this is the real stuff; powerful, muscular, assertive and, best of all, carefully structured to assure our continued prosperity. And by "our," I'm referring to us — not a bunch of namby-pamby coastal liberals whose tax money we need to use (for their own good, of course)!
Our own Secretary of Defense/Congressman Doug Lamborn was kind enough to explain our foreign policy in an interview with KOAA Channel 5 a few days ago.
"I have a fundamental difference in opinion than the President," said Lamborn. "He sees defense as the first thing to cut, and I think it's the last thing to cut. I'm really bothered by the fact that he only seems to be able to cut defense and he ignores the rest of the budget.
"The mentality seems to be," Lamborn continued, "let's have a pre-set budget number for defense, and all the missions have to fit around that predetermined amount. What I think we should do is look at the security needs of the country and base [the budget] on what the needs are, not what the dollars are."
Translated, Lamborn's carefully diplomatic language simply restates our region's long-held belief about national security spending: Only too much is enough. And since there's no way to measure how much is too much, the best course is to increase such spending substantially every year. Otherwise, the nation is at risk.
Don't think so? Without massive spending on defense, we wouldn't have been able to achieve our historic victories in Vietnam (which kept the Chinese from becoming an economic superpower), in Iraq (which transformed that country into a peaceful, democratic nation) or in Afghanistan (which forged a modern national identity from a once-desolate shithole populated by murderous tribes of opium traffickers).
Despite a few minor glitches, our national security policy will remain unchanged if Rep. Lamborn has anything to say about it. After all, the congressman well understands that close to half of our city's economic activity depends directly or indirectly upon the federal funds that flow into our local military installations. Any substantial diminution of those flows would trigger a local recession that could cripple this city's economy for years.
Republicans, locally and nationally, are trying to make defense spending a partisan issue. Those weak-kneed Democrats, trying to hollow out our military and expose America's jugular to her enemies! Throw out those frenchified surrender monkeys, elect patriotic Republicans, and we can all sleep well at night!
Good politics, and who knows — it might work. But it won't matter.
November's election will likely offer voters a choice between Mitt Romney and Barack Obama. Both are coldly cerebral problem-solvers who see the world as it is, not through the distorting lens of emotion and ideology. Absent Iraq and Afghanistan, both will make drastic cuts.
The obvious cuts — to our nuclear arsenal, to the F-35 fighter program, to certain overseas commitments — are already in process. The next round will call for drastic cuts in the Army, which no longer will be fighting two wars. If, as proposed last week by Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, the Army is reduced from its present level of 570,000 to 490,000 members, Fort Carson surely will take a hit.
It may get a lot worse, especially if Romney is elected. Democrats are often gun-shy with the Pentagon, terrified of being undermined by the generals who not-so-secretly despise them. Just as Richard Nixon went to China and Bill Clinton reformed welfare, only a tough-minded Republican can really take on the military.
If Colorado Springs takes a devastating economic hit as a result of his policies, would Romney care? Sure — just as much as he cared about all those folks who lost their jobs when Bain Capital "restructured" their employers.
Conclusion? We'd better forget about a new brand and get to work building a new community with a vastly reduced military presence, one better suited to a peaceful, non-interventionist country.
A dismal prospect, I know — but don't abandon hope. Bogart and Bergman will always have Paris ... and we still have Iran and North Korea.

Opera has launched a new fintech called Dify in Spain today. The product is in beta right now but it will graduate from this status and make its way to other countries in due course. With Dify, users will get a virtual debit card issued by Mastercard which can be used to buy items from firms including Nike, Asos, and eDreams. Partners will offer cashback on purchases and the virtual debit card can be used with Google Pay too.
When customers use the Opera browser to shop on partner websites, they will receive cashback. To receive even more cashback, customers will be encouraged to pay for goods using their Dify cards which can be managed with the Dify Wallet app. Opera will introduce a shopping mode in its browsers that disables third-party extensions to boost user privacy.
Commenting on the news, EVP Browsers & EEA Fintech at Opera, Krystian Kolondra said:
“Every day millions of people shop online and make their payments using the Opera browsers. Opera has a track record of growing audiences and then improving their experiences to make them more engaging. We think this is one of the highest-potential areas: With Dify, we are making the browser and a superior wallet work better, together, to improve users’ shopping experience and also make it financially rewarding.”
While cashback is the first service that Dify will enable, the firm plans to expand its services by introducing savings management, credit, investment opportunities and instant cashback. Its move into financial services is a little bit unusual for a browser maker but it will provide the company with additional income.
Opera has been positioning itself for this launch for more than a year. In January 2020, Opera acquired the Estonian banking-as-a-service start-up Pocosys. In July 2020, it announced an investment in Fjord Bank and an agreement to acquire it. Then in September, it joined the Emerging Payments Association EU.
Despite its small marketshare, Opera does have 50 million monthly active users in Europe that it will look to get using Dify. If you’re in Spain and want to use Dify, or simply want to learn more, head on over to getdify.com.

Pretty much everyone on Wall Street thought the taper was a done deal back in September.
And—ahem—even some observers based in less well-heeled areas of Manhattan.
As it turned out, it wasn’t.
Lucky for us that we didn’t have billions of dollars riding on our thoughts about whether or not the Federal Reserve would begin winding down its bond-buying program. (The most we might lose was some Twitter followers.)
But for bond traders on Wall Street, the repercussions were a lot worse. In fact, the third quarter was one of the ugliest in recent memory for Wall Street.
As you can see, the pain was widely felt. But, as always, Goldman Sachs attracted its fair share of attention. Given its reputation for having some of the smartest people on the street, there was plenty of schadenfreude going around when Goldman’s fixed income, currencies and commodities division—where bond trading is housed—saw revenue tumble more than 44% to $1.25 billion. That was Goldman’s weakest quarter since the financial crisis, according to Reuters, which today published a few more interesting tidbits about Goldman’s tough run in the fall, citing two unnamed sources.
The bank was anticipating that the Federal Reserve would begin winding down its monetary-easing programs, the sources said. When the Fed unexpectedly announced that it would keep its massive bond-buying program in place, Goldman was left with positions that, “absolutely got annihilated,” as one person familiar with the matter put it.
Goldman spokesman Michael DuVally declined to comment.

Mr Tree has a birthday coming up soon and the tablet he wanted for a present came today. I knew it had to have a sleeve to keep it clean and scratch-free and I had just the fabric to make it from. Isn’t the material awesome?! Lovely cotton , and with a fiver off, I’m going to be getting some more of it before it all goes. It’s fully lined with a layer of wadding between the outer fabric and matching lining. All made off the cuff – no pattern, just a tote bag lined like a bag within a bag – you know the design, just made to measure the device.
I didn’t have a button that went with it. So, it had to be the cover-to-match solution.
I covered a button in matching fabric and used the buttonhole foot to make the buttonhole. It makes a brilliantly neat and easy job of it. A scalpel made the slit between the lines of stitching to open up the buttonhole.
All done. The button fits the button hole and the tablet fits the sleeve. No last minute hilarity of going through all that to find it didn’t fit. Thank my giddy aunt. Now, fingers crossed that Mr Tree likes it.
Have a great evening.

Cindy St. John
God has been so good to me. After being a church secretary for over 18 years, this is a real calling for me. When I leave Sound Stewardship each day, I feel like we’ve helped someone. This is an awesome team, and we’re here to help make sure everything is in place for our clients.
Originally from Memphis, Tennessee, Cindy attended Miller Hawkins Business College. She has held administrative roles in the insurance and natural gas industries. She met her husband Ricky while working in Memphis. Ricky’s job in the grocery business has taken the family to Louisiana, Kentucky and then to Kansas. “We moved to Lenexa in 1992, and it has been home ever since!”
She became connected to Sound Stewardship after a friend at church told her that Matt Syverson was looking for an administrative assistant. It was not long before Cindy was promoted to the Relationship Manager. Cindy ensures that from a client’s first greeting at Sound Stewardship, the experience is a positive one. As Relationship Manager, clients look to her to answer questions, schedule appointments, make community connections and make sure each visit to our office is enjoyable. Her Sound Stewardship colleagues affectionately call her the “Coupon Queen,” since she’s always working hard to save money for the firm.
“I love being part of the Sound Stewardship team,” Cindy says. “We’re a family here, and we share the same values.” She recalls the moment when her family and the Syverson family were in the same waiting room at Children’s Mercy Hospital, praying together for Matt’s son and Cindy’s grandson who were both undergoing open heart surgery. “That was a real bonding experience. It was meant to be!”
Cindy and Ricky have two daughters and one son, as well as four granddaughters and one grandson. She is an avid community volunteer who has served on many committees in the Lenexa area. She has been a volunteer for the Lenexa Police Department and the Daughters of the American Revolution for over twenty years. Cindy and Ricky attend Lenexa Baptist Church.

It all depends how long it takes. Dunfell is an important release and as such we ought to try to have it using new components.

One general question: Do we keep the 4.19.35 in the layer, or I can
simply drop it and introduce the 5.4.3? So far, I did just that and it
seems to be going OK.

My friend Nicola is a cook, gardener, artist, historian and proud Lucchese – a person born in Lucca. Angela, of La Mimosa, introduced us while gathered around her rustic wooden kitchen table, a fire blazing in the open-hearth to warm us during a fall rainstorm. She was in the midst of preparing rabbit stew for lunch and we were the observers. I was drawn to Nicola’s enthusiasm and knowledge of traditional Tuscan foods, their heritage and cultivation.
I learned that olive oil from Lucca is lighter and softer than the spicy southern version I usually cook with. Tuscan bread is unsalted. The reason being, during the medieval times a high tax was levied on the salt and the bakers decided to go without. Romans used faro before wheat, so in keeping with their roots, many Tuscans use it in salads and soups. Tuscan foods have more of a French influence than other parts of Italy.
To become more familiar with typical, local ingredients, I asked Nicola if he would cook with me in my barn kitchen and teach me his family secrets. He eagerly agreed.
Here is his menu:
Antipasto of Artichoke Hearts, Olives and Pickled Onions
Faraona stuffed with vegetables and braised on the stove top
Rutabagas, cubed and cooked with butter, sage and garlic
A medley of sautéed greens, shallots, garlic and white beans
Unsalted Tuscan bread
Salad greens from Nico’s garden, dressed with local olive oil
Tuscan country wine
When I saw the abundance of groceries overflowing on my countertop, I wondered how we would be able to eat it all. Good thing Angela and Davino were joining us!
The Faraona, a guinea fowl, is stuffed with leeks, garlic, carrots and celery. It is then trussed and wrapped with a layer of lard. According the the famous Italian culinary writer Artusi, the Faraona is native to Numidia and considered to be the symbol of brotherly love in the ancient world. How appropriate!
The artist, Nico, set to work creating dish upon dish so effortlessly. It was as if he were floating through time, not rushed, just enjoying the moment. I watched (and helped) in amazement as each dish came together.
While the bird cooks, Nicola starts the pumpkin risotto. Italians call squash, “pumpkin.” Butternut squash is cubed and cooked in a pot of boiling water until tender but not overcooked. In another saucepan, sauté what else but olive oil, two minced garlic cloves, and three chopped shallots until soft. Add two handfuls of rice (arborio) for each person and water to cover. Stir and add water as needed. Drain the almost cooked pumpkin and add to risotto. When risotto is almost done, add white wine as the last reduction and salt to taste. Do not overcook!The secret is to cook al dente.
My kitchen was an infusion of mingling aromas – shallots, garlic, sage and roasting bird. In a soft tone, Nicola describes each step, keeping rhythmn with the courses. Rutabagas, which add a color contrast and bright flavor to our meal, are cubed and cooked with garlic and sage in a small amount of water.
More olive oil, shallots and garlic are sautéed with a mixture of chopped greens, mostly spinach, that you can purchase ready-made at the store. This is all heated together, then white beans are stirred in. Very delicious and healthy.
Everything is perfect and so very delicious. The Faraono is delicate and succulent. Angela, Davino and Nicola ate it with fingers, devouring every morsel off the bones.
The conversation (and wine and Prosecco) continued until 12:30am. I will always remember this dinner, the new friendships formed and the enjoyment cooking brings when shared with others. By the way, do all Italian men know how to cook like this? I am impressed!
So that’s my friend Nicola. The best part of traveling is meeting new people, discovering their artistic talents and sharing the journey. I wish you art and love everyday in your life.
Note: The photos in this story are off color. I had difficulty with the indoor lighting. They are not my usual standard!

Editor’s Note: Names have been changed to protect identities.
Daddy yells. Mommy yells back. Daddy hits Mommy. Mommy cries.
Many mothers stay in abusive situations, thinking that as long as he doesn’t hit the kids, she’ll be OK and they’ll be OK.
But experience has shown that living in a household with domestic violence does affect the children, even though they are not the ones being physically abused.
Statistics reveal that 85 percent of adult batterers watched domestic violence in their home and/or experienced abuse as a child, according to information from the Donald W. Reynolds Crisis Intervention Center. And exposure to violence in the home has been found to be one of the most significant predictors of an adolescent’s later use of violence in the community.
Mary’s young toddler was aggressive toward others at home when he was around the violence.
“He spent the entire time in time-out,” explained Mary. “He wouldn’t stop hitting and biting.”
After coming to the daycare program at the Donald W. Reynolds Crisis Intervention Center, his disruptive behavior has all but stopped.
“He’s come a long way,” explained Mary. “It’s getting easier. And I’m learning about it and learning how to be more assertive with him.”
Through the Second Step curriculum, child care staffers are able to help children who have come from abusive situations deal with behaviors and emotions, according to June LaMie, child services director at the facility.
“The kids from domestic violence situations … often were screaming and hitting,” explained LaMie. “That’s the coping they learned.
“We also know kids from an abusive environment are more susceptible to developmental issues,” she added.
The Crisis Intervention Center has the only on-site, DHS-licensed child-care program that is specific to a family violence safe shelter in the state of Arkansas. Children from birth to pre-kindergarten age receive one-on-one therapeutic care, education, advocacy and emotional support while their mothers can seek employment, permanent housing, finalize legal obligations or work to safely transition back into the community as productive citizens.
“The child-care facility is a critical component of the shelter,” explained Susan Steffens, executive director. “Without it, mothers wouldn’t have a place to leave their children while they seek employment or go to work or do those things necessary for legal issues.”
The Second Step curriculum, made possible with a portion of grant money received from the United Way, is designed to increase a child’s success and decrease problem behaviors by promoting social-emotional competence and self-regulation. It teaches skills that strengthen the child’s ability to learn, have empathy, manage emotions and solve problems.
“When they come in on a morning, we go to the chart, and I ask them how they’re feeling,” said Lacy Thomas, a child advocate at the facility, referring to an emotion chart hanging on the wall. “It helps them identify what they’re feeling or what their friends might be feeling.”
LaMie said it’s important to get a child’s emotions in check before they can go on to learn fundamentals.
“We continue to get all the social-emotional training because they need that,” LaMie said, adding that staffers and volunteers receive training through the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, DHS and Bost. “They need that as a foundation to work on ABCs and 123s.”
Children create pieces of art, and puppets are used to help reinforce positive behaviors.
“Within the first week, we see drastic changes,” LaMie added. “They are like a different child. If we don’t reach them now, they’re going to be in trouble at a school-age level all the time.”
Not only do the children receive therapy and coping skills, but mom gets help, too.
“We’ve implemented parenting classes. We’re able to give mom some skills for what she learns,” LaMie said, adding that being abused and trying to raise her children can be overwhelming to a parent. “When the child starts doing well, that’s why we start teaching mom those things, so she can start teaching those things at home (or the shelter) so that when they are out of here they can continue this at home.”
Most of the skills focus on discipline rather than punishment.
“We teach choices and consequences,” explained LaMie, adding that 89 children were served last year. “We focus on discipline; they were used to punishment. We teach them that there are consequences to our choices.”
“You just have to catch ’em being good and then praise them for that,” explained Thomas, adding that many of the children are simply starved for attention, because at home the attention was focused on the abuser and the violence. “They acted out trying to get attention because they came from chaos.
“They are so eager to be good and so eager to want to be my helper,” Thomas added.
LaMie said it’s neat to see the expressions on the children’s faces change from blank and angry to happy and smiling.
And she said the Crisis Intervention Center has enough resources in place to be able to help families transition out of domestic violence environments.
“If they want out, we’re going to find the supports to help them,” she added, noting that parenting classes are available to women who may not be living at the shelter and child care is available during those class times.
Thomas said she hopes to help break the chain of violence that many of these children may be headed for and redirect them to a different and better path.
“Our goal is that just a tiny little seed will stay with them,” Thomas added.
If you or someone you know is in a violent relationship, call the Donald W. Reynolds Crisis Intervention Center’s 24-hour Crisis Hotline at (800) 359-0056.

The Financial Times notes (registration required) that economists are starting to notice that moderate-skill jobs are disappearing, and this challenges the whole basis under which we allocate resources, in exactly the way predicted by Norbert Wiener in the 1950s. (Link goes to an article claiming that Wiener was proven wrong. But perhaps he was just premature?)
What is sobering is that we have already seen convincing evidence of the impact of technology on the job market. Alan Manning of the London School of Economics coined the term “job polarisation” a decade ago, when he discovered that employment in the UK had been rising for people at the top and the bottom of the income scale. There was more demand for lawyers and burger flippers. It was middle-skill jobs that were disappearing. The same trend is true in the US, and is having the predictable effect on wages: strong gains at the top, some gains at the bottom, stagnation in the middle.
Of course cheap, ubiquitous computing power has brought many good things – and will bring more. The question is whether we are equipped to deal with the possibility that in future, there will be people who – despite being willing and fit to work – have no economic value as employees. By the time today’s 10-year-olds have their degrees, computers could be a hundred times cheaper and smarter than they are today. A future full of robot servants could be a bright future indeed, but only if we can adapt our institutions quickly enough.

To learn more about this great film that I believe any fan of the game baseball has to have, you can check out the write below.
The definitive documentary about the impossible-to-hit pitch, the knuckleball!
From acclaimed filmmakers Ricki Stern and Annie Sundberg (The Devil Came on Horseback; Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work) this heartfelt, funny and deeply engaging film delves into the legendary subculture of the knuckleball and the brotherhood of men who share the drive, imagination and humility to throw baseball‘s slowest, most disrespected pitch. Filmed throughout the 2011 season, KNUCKLEBALL follows 37 year-old R.A. Dickey (New York Mets and 2012 All-Star) and 18-year veteran Tim Wakefield, formerly the oldest player in the major leagues and an icon of the Boston Red Sox, detailing their personal and professional triumphs of the season while exploring the bond between them and their only allies, the five living retired knuckleballers – Charlie Hough, Wilbur Wood, Jim Bouton, Tom Candiotti, and Hall of Famer Phil Niekro. KNUCKLEBALL is the story of these extraordinary men, and the sacrifices they made to a pitch that would come to define their lives.
Bonus Features include: Nearly 2 hours of Featurettes, Interviews, and More

Quincy Miller, a Converge import who currently plays for the Road Warriors in the PBA Governors Cup, gave new NLEX import Jonathon Simmons his seal of approval.
Quincy Miller regarding Jonathan Simmons
The 33-year-old Simons was chosen by the Road Warriors as reinforcement for the team at the season-ending conference, according to Miller.
Naturally, Miller is familiar with Simmons because they both played in the NBA at the same time.
Around the same time as Miller spent time with the Sacramento Kings and later the Detroit Pistons, Simmons was playing for the San Antonio Spurs in 2015.
After the season, Miller started playing abroad after leading the fourth-seeded FiberXers to the Commissioner’s Cup playoffs.
Simmons, on the other hand, stayed in the NBA and played for two more seasons with the Philadelphia 76ers and Orlando Magic.
Texas native Simmons, who went undrafted in the NBA Draft in 2012, joined the Spurs three years later after helping them win the Las Vegas Summer League Championship and was voted Finals MVP.
During the NBA All-Star Weekend 2017, he participated for the US Team in the Rising Stars Challenge.
The next year, Simmons started his first postseason game as a replacement for Kahwi Leonard due to injury. He contributed 18 points to the Spurs’ 114-75 victory against the Rockets in Game 6 to help them move to the Western Conference finals, but they fell short to the eventual champion Golden State Warriors.
In an Orlando Magic game against the Cleveland Cavaliers in February 2018, Simmons erupted for 22 points in the third quarter to help his team win 116-98. His final tally was a career-high 34 points, although the 22 points he scored in the third fell three shy of Tracy McGrady’s franchise record set in 2003.
A month later, in a 126-117 win over the Milwaukee Bucks, Simmons erased his previous career high by scoring 35 points.
Excellent pick up. You people are going to love him, “Miller said on the East Asia Super League (EASL) Instagram account, which had just announced Simmons’ signing by NLEX and referred to him as “The New King of the Road.”

On Sunday at 4 p.m., Guild Hall will screen “Paul Bowles: The Complete Outsider,” a 1994 film by Catherine Hiller Warnow and Regina Weinreich.
The filmmakers will be available for questions after the screening. This is the 100th anniversary year of the author’s birth. The film debuted at the Hamptons International Film Festival, and this is an appropriate homecoming for it, Ms. Weinreich said last week.
The documentary follows Bowles’s steps in Morocco and includes interviews with the subject as well as contemporaries such as Allen Ginsberg. In his review for The New York Times, Stephen Holden said, “Although the film is just under an hour, it covers a great deal of territory with maximum efficiency. In the composite portrait that emerges from the recollections of friends and associates, Mr. Bowles comes across as contradictory, enigmatic and temperamentally cool.”
Ms. Weinreich said that about 30 hours of footage were taken to arrive at that hour.
“At the center of the film stands Mr. Bowles, who was interviewed in Tangier. Slender, white-haired and exuding a patrician reserve, the octogenarian writer talks about his work in tantalizing riddles,” the review continued.
Ms. Weinreich said “I had taught a creative writing workshop with Paul as part of a summer program for the School of Visual Arts in 1983. That was how I first met him.” The two developed a friendship. “I spent a lot of time with him in his apartment where, in the afternoons, guests would arrive unannounced.” The writer did not have a phone. “Fans of both his music and his books, travel, short stories, and novels, would gather in his spare living room. He would serve them tea.” Mohammed Mrabet, a Moroccan storyteller and painter, would cook tagine. Bowles and Ms. Weinreich continued to correspond after that summer for the rest of his life. She made the film five years later.
Mr. Bowles wrote “The Sheltering Sky,” a novel making use of his experiences in the North African desert and the unconventional marriage he shared with the author Jane Auer Bowles, who died in 1973. It has routinely ended up on lists of the best 20th-century fiction. It was written in 1949. He was the author of 20 books in total.
According to Ms. Weinreich, Bowles was a fascinating subject known for both his music and literature. “His life was like a who’s who of the 20th century. He worked with Salvador Dali, knew Gypsy Rose Lee, Lincoln Kirstein, W.H. Auden, Lillian Hellman, Aaron Copeland, Leonard Bernstein, everyone in theater and the arts. In the film he impersonates Truman Capote, Tennessee Williams, and Gertrude Stein’s dog, Basket.”
Although not a poet, Mr. Bowles was an inspiration to the Beat Generation, which Ms. Weinreich has covered in other works such as “The Beat Generation: An American Dream,” “Kerouac’s Spontaneous Poetics,” and the compilation “Kerouac’s Book of Haikus.” She is also a contributor to The Star.
His most notable influence may have been on those midcentury writers, but Ms. Weinreich said his work still speaks to new generations. “Young writers in my classes love his austere prose and exotic settings. In the 1980s he had a devoted following, mostly Europeans and Asians knew his work and were devoted fans.”
When they made the film, Ms. Weinreich and Ms. Warnow had doctorates in American literature “and neither one of us heard his name mentioned in any of our classes. Now, the scholarly world has caught up with him and many major books have been written about his work. Especially now, when there is so much interest in the Arab world, he provides a window into a culture that remains elusive to the West.”
Tickets are $12, $10 for members, and are available at guildhall.org or at the box office.

What causes a bottle rocket to launch?
When the air pressure becomes high enough, the plastic bottle releases and flies high up into the air. The higher the air pressure, the faster the water shoots out, and the greater the “push” force on the rocket. As a result, the rocket launches into the air faster.
How do pop bottle rockets work?
A launcher powered by a hand bicycle pump or small compressor fills a plastic pop bottle rocket with compressed air. When the bottle is released from the launcher, air escapes the bottle. As the bottle pushes out the air, the air pushes the bottle upwards (Newton’s Third Law of Motion).
How do you make a soda bottle rocket launcher?
Fill bottle with 1 liter of water. Slide bottle down onto launch tube. Lock bottle in place with ¾” coupler. Slide string under the cross bar in the base, weigh it down with tent pegs or rocks • Attach bike pump to valve • Pump air into the bottle until you reach 40PSI.
How does Newton’s first law apply to a bottle rocket?
Bottle rockets are excellent devices for investigating “Newton’s Three Laws of Motion”: 1st Law – A rocket will remain on the launch pad until an unbalanced force is exerted, propelling the rocket upward. 2nd Law – The amount of force depends upon how much air is pumped inside the rocket.
How does Newton’s 3rd law of Motion apply in launching a rocket?
Launching a rocket relies on Newton’s Third Law of Motion. A rocket engine produces thrust through action and reaction. The engine produces hot exhaust gases which flow out of the back of the engine. In reaction, a thrusting force is produced in the opposite reaction.
How do fins work on a rocket?
Fins are used on smaller rockets to provide this stability and control direction. It works in the same way as placing feathers at the tail of an arrow. The greater drag on the feathers keeps the tail of the arrow at the back so that the point of the arrow travels straight into the wind.

This adapter allows connecting micro-controller boards that have 5V or 3.3V serial interfaces to a PC USB port. The converter is compatible with FTDI USB TTL Serial cables and SparkFun FTDI Basic breakout board. Compared to SparkFun board, uses much more reliable and common nowadays Micro USB connector. It is also cheaper to make (about $7 per board), and so it makes a nice project for practicing your SMD soldering skills :-).
The board is based on FTDI FT231X chip. It provides RS-232 RX and TX signals, as well as DTR and CTS signals that are used by Arduino-like boards for resetting the microcontroller before uploading the code. The board schematic is available in the file section at the bottom of this page.
The board supports either 5V or 3.3V logic levels. It is pre-configured for 5V. To configured for 3.3V cut the trace between pins 2 and 3 of JP1/PWR_SEL on the bottom side of the board, and connect pins 1 and 2 together.

Niki & Ben were married on a drizzly day in San Francisco a month ago, and I just got some great images from their amazing photographer, Anna Kuperberg. I am so inspired by her work and ability to capture every little detail and expression. I met Niki back in November to take over the planning of her wedding, as she has a very intense job in New York which didn't allow her the time to be in San Francisco that much. When I finally met Ben, I could see how much love these two had for each other, and that this wedding was just going to be even better than they had imagined.
The concept for this wedding was to bring her Japanese and Indian backgrounds and merge it with his Jewish background, and make it come together beautifully. The result was a whimsical and colorful wedding full of traditions, laughter and tears. This wedding was so much fun, and I am so happy to be able to share some of these images with you! You can also view the wedding slideshow here.
This last one just gets me. I love them! Here are the vendors that made this wedding magical:
Venue - James Leary Flood Mansion
Photographer - Anna Kuperberg
Florist - Birch
Caterer - Betty Zlatchin Catering
Cake - I Dream of Cake

|Title||Factors influencing infiltrability of semiarid mountain slopes|
|Publication Type||Journal Article|
|Year of Publication||1988|
|Authors||Wilcox B.P., Wood M.K, Tromble J.M.|
|Journal||Journal of Range Management|
|Date Published||May 1, 1988|
|Keywords||infiltration, rangeland hydrology, soil water|
The objective of this research was to determine the effects of selected vegetation, soil, rock, and slope variables on infiltration of semiarid rangelands with slope gradients ranging from 0-70%. Analyses were made on 2 sets of data collected a year apart in the Guadalupe Mountains of New Mexico and consisted of Pearson and partial correlation analysis of the dependent infiltration variables and independent site variables. In addition, infiltration was regressed against uncorrelated factors produced by factor analysis. Vegetal cover and biomass strongly influenced infiltration. The relative importance of grasses, shrubs or litter was dependent on their respective abundance, especially grass. Soil depth also limited infiltration especially as soil water storage became satisfied. Infiltrability was negatively correlated with rock cover and the smallest rock size fragments were the most negatively related. When the effects of vegetal cover and slope were removed (using partial correlation analysis) however, the median sized rock fragments (26-150 mm) were positively related to infiltrability, and the smallest rock fragments (2-12 mm) were negatively related. Partial correlation analysis also suggested a positive correlation between infiltrability and slope gradient.

WiFi Gets Around
"WiFi is a threat because we're vulnerable," the CEO of a Tier 1 US mobile operator said as he explained how the acquisition of a hotspot operator would enable his company to co-opt that threat. "It's coverage where they want it and speed where they need it."
No, you didn't miss a big merger and acquisition (M&A) story. That was VoiceStream CEO John Stanton at the 2002 CTIA show, where the hot topic was whether cellular and WiFi were friends, enemies or something in between. Stanton shared the keynote stage with Boingo Wireless founder Sky Dayton, who agreed that some synergy was in order: "Sooner or later, it's 'Your chocolate fell in my peanut butter.'"
That analogy must have stuck with Tom Wheeler, who was there as CTIA president and CEO, as he dusted off part of it a few weeks ago when announcing that the FCC would free up another 100MHz in the 5GHz band to alleviate WiFi congestion. "In 2014, licensed and unlicensed spectrum are more complementary than competitive," Wheeler said. "They are less oil and vinegar and more peanut butter and jelly."
When smartphone usage skyrocketed circa 2008, that synergy was in the form of offload. But that role is becoming secondary as mobile operators find additional uses for WiFi, including as a way to enable international roaming and get around LTE's band fragmentation. That's one key finding from the new Heavy Reading 4G/LTE Insider, "Carrier Wi-Fi Roaming: Old Dog, New Tricks."
For example, in April 2013, AT&T added 1GB of data per month to its 300MB and 80MB Data Global Add-On package via Boingo's hotspots in 30 airports. "I don't look at it as necessarily freeing up capacity on the cellular network," says J.R. Wilson, AT&T vice president of partnerships and alliances and Wireless Broadband Alliance chair.
Many hotspot aggregators agree: "We believe that the industry has moved beyond offload," says Brian Metzger, iPass head of marketing for global channels. "The approach the mobile network operators are taking with WiFi is far more thoughtful and far more sophisticated. They're now looking at WiFi as a strategic integrated network asset."
That ability is getting a boost from cable operators' aggressive forays into WiFi, as well as from industry initiatives such as Hotspot 2.0. Those activities are inching WiFi closer to cellular-style and cellular-scale roaming.
But in the process, they're making WiFi more of a threat than it was back in 2002. Case in point: Scratch Wireless is an example of a new breed of mobile operators that use cellular as a fallback to WiFi, a reverse of the far more common model. These operators wouldn't exist if WiFi weren't prevalent enough to stand in for cellular in the eyes of many consumers. These operators will benefit as WiFi roaming becomes easier, more robust and more widespread thanks to MSO buildouts and Hotspot 2.0. "The cable WiFi initiative is a great benefit to us," says Jon Finegold, Scratch Wireless vice president of marketing. "Anything that makes WiFi more cellular-like is good tailwind for us."
Scratch bears watching by cable operators, consumer electronics vendors, social networking companies, and other businesses that are interested in whether a WiFi-centric or WiFi-only service resonates with enough consumers, or whether a cellular-first strategy makes more sense. One thing is clear: WiFi will be shaking up telecom for years to come.

We're through the looking glass here people, more links from the depths of the internets. Fear them.
- Twitter Tsunamis - In response to two floods of tweets last week, one heralding a well written essay, the other in response to this weekend's tragedy, Alan Jacobs laments:
This kind of thing always makes me want to flee Twitter, even when I am deeply sympathetic to the positions people are taking. It's a test of my charity, and a test I usually fail. To me these tsunamis feel like desperate signaling, people trying to make sure that everyone knows where they stand on the issue du jour. I can almost see the beads of sweat forming on their foreheads as they try to craft retweetable tweets, the kind to which others will append that most wholehearted of endorsements: "THIS." I find myself thinking, People, you never tweeted about [topic x] before and after 48 hours or so you’ll never tweet about it again, so please stop signaling to all of us how near and dear to your heart [topic X] is.
This is a failing of twitter, a platform that was never meant to host these sorts of conversations. Twitter is supposed to be inane and snarky. There are some wizards who are able to pack a lot of meaning into 140 characters, but they are rare. The Ta-Nehisi Coates essay at least prompted tweets with links to the article (along with some obscenely hyperbolic praise) which is long and detailed and worthy of discussion - but discussions accomplished through bursts of 140 characters are not going to get it done. Twitter is great for short back and forths, but have you ever tried to follow a back-and-forth conversation that goes on for more than 5 tweets? Even with Twitter's improving ability to group this stuff together, it's annoying as hell, and I'm talking about nerdy debates about movies or beer. Imagine debates about racism or abortion happening on twitter. Can you really accomplish anything in 140 characters? Get a blog, people!
So, you know: charity FAIL. I know that most - well, anyway, many - of the people tweeting about what everyone else was tweeting about were sincere and expressing genuine interest. It's just hard for me to handle such exaggerated and repeated unanimity.
- Calling Kids Out - Now here's someone doing it right. It's a guy who got drunk and decided to mock lame child fashion designers. Here's a man who knows that 140 characters just won't do. (In case you were wondering why the crazy tone and rhythm sounds familiar, this is the same maniac that's behind the Don't Drink Beer blog)
- How YouTube and Internet Journalism Destroyed Tom Cruise, Our Last Real Movie Star - An excellent long look into the career of Tom Cruise and that fateful moment when he "jumped" up on the couch on Oprah. Perhaps related to the distortion effect caused by condensing complex debates into 140 characters on Twitter, this is a situation where no one ever watches the full 40+ minute interview with Tom Cruise, just the one time he stood up on the couch. And most likely, you only get a screenshot, which distorts things even more.
Like Humphrey Bogart saying, "Play it again, Sam," Tom Cruise jumping on a couch is one of our mass hallucinations. But there's a difference. Bogart's mythological Casablanca catchphrase got embedded in the culture before we could replay the video and fact-check. Thanks to the Internet, we have video at our fingertips. Yet rather than correct the record, the video perpetuated the delusion.
It is perhaps going a bit far to say that the couch jumping "never happened", because Cruise did end up standing on top of a couch, but there's definitely a lot of distortion and exaggeration going on here, and this article covers the whole thing, and Cruise's career in general, very well.
- H.R. Giger's to-do list for Alien - Giger has always been a favorite, largely because of Alien, but even just in general. RIP...
- Spurious Correlations - It turns out that correlation does not imply causation. We've all heard that aphorism, but it's always nice to see it in action. (h/t Heather)
That's all for now. Shine on, you crazy diamonds.

WHEN YOU'RE A PET OWNER
If you’re among the 15% to 30% of people with pet allergies, you have to consider how being a pet owner cuts into sleep. Exposure to pet dander from cats and dogs can result in congestion, sneezing, coughing, chest tightness and wheezing that can keep you awake all night long. Despite these symptoms, you can follow a simple routine to help you get the night right.
DESIGNATE YOUR BEDROOM A PET-FREE ZONE
Most people spend 8 to 12 hours a day in their bedroom. By keeping your bedroom door closed while you sleep, you can eliminate much of the bothersome effects of pet dander. If your Siamese or Labradoodle has had free reign, be sure to do a thorough deep clean of your bedroom since pet dander is “sticky.” Or buy new hypoallergenic pillows and bedding with tightly woven fabric to begin fresh.
TAKE SPECIAL CARE WHEN CLEANING YOUR BEDROOM
Use a vacuum with a HEPA filter or disposable electrostatic bag to contain allergens. For cleaning surfaces use an anti-allergen spray. When it comes to eliminating the allergens on your bedding, you have options: a 140°F hot wash with one rinse, an any temperature wash with two rinses, or steam wash them.
REMOVE ITEMS FROM YOUR BEDROOM THAT COLLECT PET ALLERGENS
In the bedroom, pet dander can collect in carpets and on clutter. To decrease allergen build-up, start by removing any wall-to-wall carpet and replacing it with hardwood, tile, or rugs you can steam clean or wash with hot water in your washing machine. Replace drapes with ones you can regularly wash in hot water. Finally, minimize upholstered furniture, but if you must, choose cotton-covered furniture and steam clean it regularly.
KEEP YOUR PET AND HIS OR HER PRODUCTS CLEAN
Just like taking special care when cleaning your bedroom, take special care to clean your pet and his or her products. Buy bedding for your pet that can be washed regularly and a cage that can be cleaned quickly. If you have a cat, use clumping litter and clean the box often. Minimize pet dander build-up and flaking by giving your pet a bath at least once a week and by brushing your pet often (preferably outside).
PREPARE YOUR NOSE AND SINUSES
If nasal congestion is a problem, apply a Breathe Right nasal strip right before bed. They'll open your nasal passages so you can breathe and sleep better.
DURING ALLERGY SEASON
Nighttime Allergy sufferers, you’re not alone. 20% of Americans are affected by allergies, making it the 6th leading chronic illness in the U.S. More...

Forget Dracula—the common vampire bat stealthily feeds on the blood of mammals, and sometimes domesticated birds.
Let’s set the scene…
Flying about 3 feet off the ground, the bat uses its sharp sense of smell and echolocation to find a “victim.” This bat is lucky—there’s a sleeping cow right ahead!
So as not to alert the cow, the bat lands on the ground and easily crawls or hops to its snoozing dinner, using its thumbs, forearms and wings. It lightly climbs onto the cow and uses heat sensors in its nose to find where blood is near the skin’s surface. The bat licks the site clean with its tongue and then trims the cow’s hair with its teeth. It then painlessly cuts through the skin and injects saliva containing a chemical to prevent blood clots. The bat then laps oozing blood with its tongue. The bat soon becomes engorged with blood and is too heavy to fly away. It crawls off the cow and moves along the ground to a safe place while digestion lightens its heavy load.
The bats you spot out here in the Pacific Northwest are not vampire bats; their wild range keeps them to northern Mexico, Argentina, Chile, and the islands of Trinidad and Margarita off the coast of Venezuela. But if you want to see vampire bats up close, come check them out at the zoo’s popular Night Exhibit, which also features species of fruit bats.

Professional gamers offer their insight into video game safety, helping players all over the world stay safe and secure from cybercriminal activity.
From August 17th to the 21st, the eyes of millions of gamers throughout the world will be upon Germany. The reason is gamescom, one of the three largest gaming events in the world (along with the US’s E3 and Japan’s Tokyo Game Show). The hype generated by these events is huge, and if we take into account what we have recently witnessed with No Man’s Sky – one of the most eagerly awaited titles these days – the effect is multiplied, since the most important gaming companies tend to make use of these spaces to show their progress and upcoming projects.
It no longer seems strange to hear that someone can make a living out of video gamesToday, the video game industry has never been stronger, drawing comparisons to its first golden age in the 1980s. If we look at the numbers, we will see that in 2015 the video game market was expected to exceed $75 billion, with 1.8 billion active players worldwide. On the other hand, if we look at expert predictions, we will find that the entertainment category – only for PC gaming software – has reached $32 billion in sales.
Many consider that video games are the new ‘cinema’, not only because technological improvements have made them much more visually appealing and entertaining in terms of mechanics and commands, but also because of the way in which the stories are told, and the importance that high-quality scripts and plots have taken on.
Taking video games to a new level
Moreover, YouTubers, Twitchers and professional gamers have helped take gaming to a whole new level. In 2016, it no longer seems strange to hear that someone can make a living out of video games not just by developing or testing them, but also by playing them. If we only consider that in July 2016 people have watched over 77 million hours of League of Legends on Twitch, we will understand this is serious business.
Once more, Europe, Japan and the US have been the pioneers of e-sports, with world championships and tournaments of different franchises, such as FIFA, PES, DOTA 2, League of Legends, and Call of Duty, among many others, delivering thousands of dollars in prizes. Of course, sponsors did not take long to see the impact generated by these disciplines – just imagine any large company and you will surely find their logo now printed on the t-shirt of a professional gamers’ team.
Being aware of the risks
Now, one thing that all gamers share – beyond their passion for games – is that they spend many hours on the internet, they log into many different sites, and they always have their credit cards at hand to buy the latest titles. Even though developers know that this creates a risk for data, sometimes there are simply not enough measures to apply.
With this premise in mind, we interviewed three gamers who are part of consolidated teams: Sergio Portillo from ZetaStrike, Mauricio Hernández from Delta Gaming, and Francisco “Patán” Sotullo, a FIFA professional player. We asked them their opinions on the status of IT security in the gaming world, as well as their recommendations for video game players, so that they can enjoy their passion without the risk of falling victim to cybercriminals.
How can professional gamers protect themselves?
“We gamers are already used to protect our data and files as best as possible; not because we have great computer skills, but because we’ve already been through bad experiences when downloading compromised games or when getting into places that appear to be one thing but turn out to be another”, Sergio Portillo explained.
“Never use a crack or hack. That is the lowest any gamer can get!”
Meanwhile, Mauricio Hernandez told us: “The most important thing is not to share your gaming account with anyone; most cases of account theft begin after showing this kind of confidence. And only buy games from official stores”.
Naturally, once they told us their secrets, our next question had to focus on how fans or casual players should protect themselves.
“A person who has recently been introduced to the world of video games needs to know that not everything is what people say it is,” explained Sergio. “There are many strange things on the web, for example, misleading advertisements that lead you to places you do not want to go, or worse, that try to convince you to download a program to solve all your computer’s problems. The best practice is, whenever you have any doubt at all, to ask someone who already has experience using computers, such as a technician or researcher.”
Meanwhile, Mauricio advised us: “The most important thing is to use strong passwords with a high security level, not to use your login details anywhere, and to always use a good antivirus solution.”
Which kinds of information theft, threats, or scams have you experienced in the gaming world?
Patán, an Argentine who became FIFA No. 3 in the world in 2014 and who was National and Pan-American Champion, told us his experience as a gamer and as a reference for other players:
Along the same lines as Patán, Mauricio explained that “the most common problem is game account theft; the stolen accounts usually end up being used to test new hacks and are then banned by the gaming companies, so it is useless to recover them”.
However, stealing accounts is not the only thing that attracts cybercriminals. They are also after credit card details. Mauricio continued: “Many cybercriminals look for our credit or debit card payment information; in addition, there are many Internet sites that publish offers of game keys three times cheaper than at the official store, and this may tempt users to buy at third-party stores that do not have appropriate security”.
Why and how should the security industry cooperate with the gaming industry?
It is clear that video games involve quite a lot of money and people. Besides, we are also talking about sensitive information, such as personal email addresses and credit card numbers. Bearing this in mind, we asked the gamers their opinions on how the IT security industry could collaborate in this regard.
Sergio was the first to take a stand, and explained: “A good initiative from security companies towards the gaming industry would be to create awareness campaigns, because many gamers – in particular the ones who are just beginning – are not aware of the risks involved both inside and outside the game”.
Mauricio reflected on this idea and added: “People do not talk much about video game security, perhaps due to ignorance or simply because they are careless. As players, we should demand game developers to increase safety or to provide us with specific programs so that we can take care of our data.”
Gamers advising gamers
Finally, we asked them to take a few minutes and think about their recommendations, which any kind of player can consider as part of their routine activities (so that they can enjoy their passion without taking unnecessary risks).
Sergio highlighted once more the fact that people should “not share their account information – it has to remain private”. He asked the community to be honest and “not to spoil the game with cheats or tricks”, and he finally added that gamers should be more responsible towards each other: “Teach the youngest kids to protect their data and files; this is a good legacy to leave for future generations”.
Mauricio largely agreed with Sergio’s comments and emphasized: “Buy games at the official store, no attractive price is worth your safety, and use two-factor authentication!” However, the most valuable piece of advice we got is to think about security from another perspective – honesty and healthy competition, which undoubtedly characterizes gamers: “If you are a bad player, don’t worry – there are many ways to improve your performance. But never use a crack or hack! That is the lowest any gamer can get!”.

Living Room. Wednesday , December 13th , 2017 - 22:04:58 PM
You may have a lot of ideas but you’ll also have to manage the reality of limited space. It is a great idea to use a smaller amount of large lamps than a larger amount of smaller lamps. Some generic ideas depending on the type of room they can be put in, have been mentioned below.
Not all curtains will block out the noise you think they’ll so you might need to experiment with a couple different set of curtains before you find the ideal set. Nevertheless, as stated above, you don’t have to look for the brightest curtains simply to boost the overall Christmas theme. You may also blend a couple of solid colored curtain in the very same windows panel.
There are invariably quite a few room color schemes for the home, based on the room colours. It might happen that the size of the living room is little and hence you may want to opt for a color scheme to provide a bigger look to the room. Thus, the size and form of the living room needs to be considered before deciding the paint colors for the living room. Hence it is highly advisable to select the living room colors accordingly. Hence the paint colors you select for the living room should reflect your personality and fashion. Before you select your living room paint colors, it is essential that you know the science of colours and color psychology, because colors directly influence our moods and feelings. Attempt to use dramatic home lighting because it will make your room look brighter and expressive.

FTIR DOAS Technique
OPSIS has developed an analyser for monitoring compounds specifically in the infra-red wavelength range area. The OPSIS IR technique is based on the same method for identifying and measuring concentrations of various compounds as the comprehensive OPSIS spectrometer technique.
The IR technique is based on Beer-Lambert’s absoption law, which states the relationship between the quantity of light absorbed and the number of molecules in the light path. A light source projects a light beam onto a receiver which transfers the light via an optical fibre to the analyser.
The analyser includes an interferometer, a computer and control circuit cards. The interferometer consists of a beam splitter which divides the light towards two moving mirrors. An interference pattern is formed.
By using advanced computer calculations, the interference pattern is transformed into a wavelength spectrum, corresponding to the spectrum which is measured in the OPSIS spectrometer.
The interferometer gives higher spectral resolution in the infra-red wavelength range than the spectrometer does.
The computer proceeds by varying the size factors for each reference spectrum until it reaches the best possible match. From this the different gas concentrations can be calculated with high accuracy

- About Us
All aspects relating to the funeral are handled by our family so you and your family will have peace of mind during a difficult time.
You can take your time creating arrangements that best suit your needs and preferences, and all you have to do is fill out a form or meet with a member of our staff to put your plan in place. Anyone can create a plan, at any stage in their life, and you can make changes at a later date if you wish.
Creating your own unique life celebration allows you to make sure that your wishes and desires are respected upon your passing. However you decide to be memorialized, pre-planning and preparation gives you control over the personal decisions that must be made when a person moves on from this life. Planning can be meaningful for your family, as well, if you choose to include them in the process. It can help them to feel connected to you both in life and in death, knowing that your arrangements reflect exactly what you envisioned them to be.
When a loved one passes, the family faces an overwhelming number of tasks and decisions, all while struggling through grief and a range of difficult emotions. By taking care of your arrangements before the time of need, you’re relieving them of that burden and giving them more time and energy to focus on healing and remembrance. They won’t have to ask themselves, “Am I making the right choices?” and can instead focus on what matters: saying goodbye and celebrating your life journey with those who cared about you most.
While pre-funding your funeral is certainly not required in order to pre-plan, pre-payment means that your funds will be set aside and protected against inflation and unforeseen increases in cost. Your family won’t have to worry about payment, and can enjoy peace of mind knowing that everything has been taken care of. We’d be happy to provide you with more information and help you arrange for pre-funding of your services.
Once you create your pre-plan with us, we store it in our files as a record of your final wishes and decisions. Your plan is easily transferable to any funeral home in the United States, so it can be used wherever you might choose to relocate. No matter where you live at the time of your passing, or which funeral home’s services you decide to use, we’ll make sure that your plan follows you there.
The first step is to review our Pre-Planning Checklist to help you consider all of your possibilities and gather all of the information you’ll need. It is a good starting point to begin creating your personalized arrangements. You can also contact us to schedule a time to meet with a member of our staff to discuss your options and design your plan in person.

Healthcare IT spending is expected to reach $40 billion by the end of this year, according to a study from market research firm RNCOS. Much of that growth will come from spending on electronic health record (EHR) systems, mobile health applications and efforts to comply with new government standards.
Boosted by increased spending on healthcare software -- which is needed for the rollout of EHR systems -- the U.S. healthcare IT market is expected to grow at a rate of about 24 percent per year from 2012 to 2014, the study said. Spending on healthcare software rose 20.5 percent in the past year, from $6.8 billion in 2010 to a projected $8.2 billion this year, according to RNCOS.
Recent mergers and acquisitions in the healthcare IT market also point to growing private-sector interest in software, which will see sales grow at rate of more than 30 percent annually from 2012 to 2014, the report said. The study attributed some of the increase in spending to the Healthcare Reform Act, the new ICD-10 coding system and adoption of EHR systems, which will be mandatory by 2015. Medicaid enrollment, which is expected to increase by 16 million people by 2019, is also a factor. (ICD-10 is a comprehensive medical coding system that includes more than 55,000 codes; hospitals are required to be using it by Oct. 1, 2013.)
The adoption of EHR technology -- hastened by the requirement that healthcare facilities must achieve "meaningful use" of such systems -- is forcing hospitals and other healthcare providers to move ahead with technology implementations faster than ever. In addition, the RNCOS report noted that consumers are keenly interested in the benefits of mHealth or mobile health technology. The mHealth market is estimated to hit $2.1 billion by the end of the year, growing 17 percent in each of the past two years. The main driver behind that double-digit growth rate is the increasing use of smartphones, which has grown by 29 percent from 2009 to 2011.
As a result, according to market research firm Research2guidance, healthcare-related smartphone apps are set to become hugely popular. According to the Global Mobile Health Market Report 2010-2015 compiled by the research firm, more than one-third of 1.4 billion smartphone users in 2015 will be running some kind of mobile healthcare app.
A recent online survey sponsored by the wireless industry association CTIA found a similar level of interest in health-oriented apps. In the CTIA survey, 78 percent of respondents said that they were interested in mHealth products and services and 15 percent said that they were extremely interested in learning more.
"This signifies that the awareness among the consumers regarding [mobile health] services is increasing, which has played an important role in the growth of the market," the RNCOS report said. More than 72 percent of physicians in the U.S. are now smartphone users, according to the RNCOS report. Tablet devices are also catching on in the medical community with more than 20 percent of all U.S. physicians using iPads. Healthcare apps for smartphones are one of the main reasons for this increased usage. There are already more than 10,000 mobile applications related to health, and about 40 percent of those are designed for healthcare professionals. That figure includes remote monitoring and healthcare management applications.

Slate looking like real deal
Pop Rockstar another horse we'll be hearing a lot more about
Virtually all bookies are offering extra places on the BetVictor Gold Cup and I fully expect these two to at least make the frame.
Both have something to prove but look well capable of making a strong impact.
It was two years ago that SLATE HOUSE (2.25, Cheltenham) announced that he was going to be a force when winning the Grade Two novices' hurdle at this meeting but it just did not happen for him after that until his reappearance this term.
Two wind ops later he looked absolutely the real deal last time and significantly he was well backed, so connections must have been confident that he is over his problems. It certainly looked that way.
He travelled well throughout and won without exerting himself too much, yet put up a very good performance on the clock despite the heavy conditions.
It is possible the breathing operation won't hold up under the more severe test this race demands but the fact that he was been supported continuously ante-post suggests the Tizzards are confident once again.
Slate House has only ever won at Cheltenham so track and conditions are fine for him and this could easily be his breakthrough moment.
Happy Diva is one of the best and most consistent mares around. Her issue is she has a habit of coming second.
However, she was travelling extremely well and looking certain to be involved in the finish when brought down four out in last year's race.
She is 3lb higher but I believe she might have ended up on a much higher mark had she completed and her 3lb claimer was riding a perfect race on her before that unfortunate exit.
Her form is largely in small, good-quality fields but this is largely due to the programme for high-class mares.
My opinion is that a fast run big field enables her jockey to ride her to come through late, and as a result not give her the opportunity to idle away victory.
I feel she represents a cracking each-way bet here. Kerry Lee is almost synonymous with heavy ground and this mare is well proven over trip and conditions.
Although I don't think much of the name of POP ROCKSTAR'S (1.50, Cheltenham) name, I do expect him to be a name we will be hearing a lot more about this season and beyond.
His form has taken a massive upturn on his past two runs and the handicapper has attempted to steady him.
However, a 12lb rise did not stop him last time at Carlisle and he won so convincingly that a further 8lb hike is unlikely to be the reason he gets beaten on Saturday afternoon.
He has become an accomplished jumper and looks a real stayer, so I don't think the trip will be a barrier and he has a win on heavy ground under Jonjo O'Neill Jr to his name.
TREASURE DILLON (3.30, Cheltenham) is another handicapper who might be advantaged by carrying a lower weight on the heavy ground.
He ran an encouraging race over course and distance last time against a well-handicapped horse, as well as a Charles Byrnes improver.
He has only gone up 1lb for that effort and in a race has cut up a little he can make the frame at least.
