Argan oil is your hair’s new best friend. It is well known that synthetic products or shampoos that are loaded with chemicals and heavily processed oils or creams don’t really offer any long-term benefits. Some shampoos and creams promise immediate styling and cleansing, but they have side effects which affect the health of the hair and can also cause irreparable damage to the scalp – not good! | 2019-04-21T10:28:29Z | https://www.foxbrim.com/blogs/simply-foxbrim/tagged/hair-treatments |

Dr. Bagshaw was one of the most passionate doctors that Canada has ever had. Even though she graduated from University of Toronto focusing on Obstetrics, and had a successful 60-year medical career, she was best known for her 30 years of practice as the Director of the Hamilton Birth Control Clinic.
This was Canada´s first birth control clinic during the decade of 30´s, at a time when it was illegal. Elizabeth Bagshaw was a pioneer in teaching women about sexual education, and providing information about reproductive birth control. As a positive consequence, her birth control clinic was legally recognized and supported by government grants in 1969.
Bagshaw’s passion led her to be the oldest practicing physician in Canada, having over 40 patients at the age of 95. However, she did shortly retire.
Did you know that the first Canadian woman to be sent into space was a neurologist by the name Roberta Lynn Bondar? Becoming the second Canadian sent to space and the first neurologist in space, Dr. Bondar flew aboard the American space shuttle Discovery, in 1992 Dr. Bondar specialized in the nervous system and her research mission included over 40 scientific experiments in space, studying the effects of microgravity on the human body and its ability to recover.
In 1983, the Canadian Astronaut Program, now a part of the Canadian Space Agency, began to recruit Canada´s first astronauts. Dr. Bondar did not hesitate and immediately applied. According to author Joan Dixon´s biography of Dr. Bondar, she was chosen out of approximately 4,300 other applicants, with only 11 per cent of the applicants being women. This led Dr. Bondar to become the only woman on the first team of Canadian astronauts, made up of six people. Dr. Roberta Bondar is now retired.
Born in 1876 in Ontario, Canada, Harriet Brooks was a nuclear physicist. Graduating from McGill University, she became the first woman to get a master´s degree in Electromagnetism.
Brooks conducted nuclear science research with her graduate supervisor Ernest Rutherford. While working with Rutherford, she discovered the element of radon and helped prove that uranium emits beta rays. Brooks also worked with Marie Curie at her Curie Institute in Paris in 1906.
After Harriet Brooks died at the age of 56, she was acknowledged as the first Canadian woman nuclear physicist. Her hard work, intelligence and discoveries have attributed her to the same relevance in terms of physics, in the area of radioactivity, as Marie Curie.
Elizabeth Cannon is a geomatics engineer, who was born in Charlottetown, P.E.I. She has two bachelor´s degrees, with the first one in Applied Science in Mathematics from Acadia University, and the second one in Geomatics Engineering from University of Calgary. Cannon also obtained a Master of Science, as well as a PhD in geomatics engineering. She became the first Dean of engineering for the Schulich School of Engineering in 2006. She has also received multiple awards and distinctions for her advocacy for women in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM).
Dr. Mona Nemer is Canada´s Chief Science Advisor, a pivotal role for Canadian Science, and particularly for women where their participation is rapidly increasing. At a very early age, Nemer showed an interest towards Science, and as a young student, fought and looked for changes to improve her school’s syllabus to have more science classes catered to girls. Throughout her career, she has worked in many different areas, such as chemistry, cellular/molecular biology, pathophysiology and clinical studies. Among her biggest scientific accomplishments is the development of diagnostic tests for heart failure, and the genetics of cardiac birth defects.
Nemer has won several awards and honours, highlighting the Women of Distinction Award from the Women´s Foundation of Montreal. She is also a member of the Order of Canada and Fellow of the Academy of Science of the Royal Society of Canada. Nemer wants to keep working on science so that the public can understand better the role that science plays in our everyday lives.
Even though science has been dominated by men, this does not mean women have not made their mark in the industry. On the contrary, it seems women participating in STEM areas will not be slowing down anytime soon. | 2019-04-26T10:08:11Z | https://www.vibe105to.com/on-trend/5-canadian-women-trailbazers-in-science |

The days have been overcast, drizzly, misty. Colors are muted this year, beautiful in their faded tints. Walking in mist and coolness, I remember Robert Frost’s “My November Guest,” the standards, “Autumn in New York” and “September in the Rain,” the poignant “Another Autumn” from Paint Your Wagon.
Our town had a fall celebration downtown on Saturday. There were activities for children: pony rides, searching for needles in hay (there was no stack), bowling with huge plastics pins and balls, winning a prize by picking up a duck in water. A hayride for everyone was a few bales of hay on a trailer pulled by a Gator. As it passed, everyone on the ride was registering boredom. There was good: Mexican, Cajun, Hibachi, Snowballs, Donuts, Creole, Chicken, two barbecue stands, kettle corn. There were vendors selling candles, hot sauce, folk art bird houses, army surplus, old radios, Craftique furniture, soaps, posters, framed botanicals. At one booth, “Salvaged Art,” I saw framed this typed message: “I said, ‘Can I take you home with me?’ She said, ‘Never in your wildest dreams.'” I loved it, but I did not buy it.
Two short novels made up my reading for the week: Steinbeck’s The Moon Is Down and Henry James’s The Turn of the Screw.
The most frightening thing for me about The Turn of the Screw is the mental state of the governess who sees ghosts and believes that they are there to harm the two children in her charge. As she ruminates about possibilities, we realize her instability and neuroses. I never much like the book, but it was excellent to teach. High school seniors loved it for its ambiguity. There are ambiguities about most of the characters, including the ghosts, and the questions raised give the novel a frightening effect.
Thank you for reading. I hope your week will be good. Often the upcoming week is one of the most beautiful of the year. I look forward.

I am inspired by the landscape of the Texas coastal plain. The lush trees harboring deep pockets of cooling shade beneath them and the numerous ponds with vibrant flora and curious small life forms provide endless sources of visual interest. I am captivated by the reflections in the ponds and still waters here. Sometimes the reflections are crisp and static, but the occasional coastal breeze induces ripples that fragment the reflections or cut across them entirely. The flora are frequently vibrant in color, and floating on a dark silky pond, they give the impression of an abstract painting by Kandinsky or Miro - just little rounded shapes floating in the ether.
The landscape of the Texas Hill Country also inspires me, but the elements here are somewhat different. There are also magnificent trees, but of different shapes and sizes, and there are plenty of ponds, rivers, and streams to provide wonder. Here the water is probably moving, either rapidly rushing its way downstream, leaving little bubble trails behind, or slowly meandering towards a deep lake somewhere. Usually, that moving water is swirling around rocks, drawing lines of highlight and wavering reflections, or cascading over rocks and creating great splashes of whiteness.
I take solitary walks in the woodlands around Houston, where I live, and on the occasional visit to the Hill Country. These walks are an essential spiritual practice. I see the trees, water and the rocks, but there is always something else here - something intangible and mysterious and that cannot be seen. I sense it in the water, and I feel it emanate from the rocks. I hear it as a whisper when the wind rustles through the trees. I feel its caress, and I am calmed by it. | 2019-04-19T20:15:10Z | https://www.haroldjoiner.com/mbr_statement.php |

‘Silence Between Waves’ is a site specific contemporary dance work performed by a cast of professional Singaporean dancers and a mass community cast of local people from Torbay. Taking inspiration from the views of Berry Head in Brixham, the work frames a conversation through movement and sound, connecting two places across the sea by reflecting on home and far away. Comparing the South West coastline with that of urban Singapore, the work explores how the sounds of the coast are an escape from noise pollution.
The creation will feature dramaturgy by Neus Gil Cortes and a soundscape by composer Samuel Hall of recordings of people from Torbay describing their memories of Berry Head, their relationship with the sea and communication over long distances.
Alongside site specific performances, Silence Between Waves will be created into a film by Daniel Martin, and will be performed alongside Still Touch for RCDs June 2019 tour dates.
Silence Between Waves was commissioned by Torbay's Great Place Scheme and funded by Arts Council England and the National Arts Council of Singapore. The project has been supported by EyeView, Exeter Phoenix, Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (Singapore), Dance in Devon, ROC Creative and Sound Communities. | 2019-04-21T02:47:44Z | https://www.richardchappelldance.co.uk/silence-between-waves |

Marta Dusseldorp (Janet King), Deidre Rubenstein (Ladies in Black), Greg Stone (The Weir) and Zoe Terakes (Janet King) star in the Australian premiere of Tony Award-nominated drama A Doll’s House, Part 2, directed by 2018 Helpmann Award nominee and MTC Associate Director Sarah Goodes.
Opening on Thursday 16 August at Southbank Theatre, The Sumner, A Doll’s House, Part 2 sees daring US playwright Lucas Hnath take up where Ibsen left off with an intriguing and decidedly modern perspective on the famed play’s provocative themes.
In 1879, Nora Helmer handed her husband her keys and wedding ring and left home, slamming the door behind her. But whatever happened to this famous literary figure from Henrik Ibsen’s A Doll’s House? And what of the family she left behind? 15 years later, Nora is now a successful feminist writer returning to get the divorce her husband Torvald never filed for. All she needs is the paperwork.
Lucas Hnath’s plays include The Christians, Red Speedo, A Public Reading of an Unproduced Screenplay About the Death of Walt Disney, Nightnight, Isaac’s Eye, Death Tax, and The Courtship of Anna Nicole Smith. His plays are published by Dramatists Play Service. Lucas has been a resident playwright at New Dramatists since 2011 and is a proud member of Ensemble Studio Theatre. Lucas is a winner of the 2012 Whitfield Cook Award for Isaac’s Eye and received a 2013 Steinberg/ATCA New Play Award Citation for Death Tax. He has also received commissions from the EST/Sloan Project, Actors Theatre of Louisville, South Coast Repertory, Playwrights Horizons, New York University’s Graduate Acting Program, and the Royal Court Theatre. Lucas Holds a BFA and an MFA from New York University’s Department of Dramatic Writing.
MTC Associate Director Sarah Goodes’ reputation as a leading director of new Australian and international work has been built on widespread praise and multiple award nominations. For MTC her recent work includes The Children, Three Little Words, John and Switzerland (following its acclaimed season in Sydney). Formerly Resident Director at Sydney Theatre Company, Sarah directed The Hanging, Disgraced, Orlando, Battle of Waterloo, The Effect, Vere (Faith), The Splinter, and Edward Gant’s Amazing Feats of Loneliness. Her other directing credits include Elling, Black Milk, The Sweetest Thing, and The Small Things (B Sharp Belvoir); The Colour of Panic (Sydney Opera House); Vertigo and the Virginia, The Schelling Point, Hilt, and What Happened Was (Old Fitzroy Theatre); and The Unscrupulous Murderer Hasse Karlson Reveals the Gruesome Truth about the Woman Who Froze to Death on a Railway Bridge (Darlinghurst Theatre Company). In 2015 she was the recipient of the Gloria Payten Travel Scholarship. | 2019-04-21T00:30:50Z | https://www.mtc.com.au/discover-more/backstage/a-dolls-house-part-2/ |

I feel the same way as Moose Peterson (http://www.moosenewsblog.com). I don’t understand how many photographers (especially ones that call themselves a pro) manage their workflow, edit their photos and print on their own without a calibrated monitor.

Consumers increased their borrowing in March by the largest amount in nearly a year as borrowing on credit cards rebounded following two months of declines.
Consumer borrowing expanded by $20.5 billion to a fresh record of $3.36 trillion, the Federal Reserve reported Thursday. It was the largest increase since a $26.7 billion surge in April 2014.
Borrowing in the category that covers credit cards shot up $4.4 billion to $889.4 billion in March after having fallen in both January and March. It was the biggest gain for consumer credit since last July.
Borrowing in the category that covers auto and student loans rose $16.2 billion to $2.47 trillion.
The overall increase in consumer credit was bigger than economists had been expecting and the February performance was revised higher.
The jump in borrowing on credit cards could be evidence that consumers are beginning to feel more confident about taking on debt to finance retail purchases, a development that should bolster consumer demand in the months ahead. Consumer spending accounts for 70% of economic activity.
Consumer spending growth slowed sharply in the January-March quarter, a big factor in the slowdown in overall growth. The economy eked out a tiny 0.2% increase in gross domestic product in the first quarter.
Economists believe GDP growth will rebound to 2% to 2.5% in the current April-June period and will climb to an even better 3% rate in the second half of the year. But those forecasts are heavily dependent on a solid rebound in consumer spending.
Consumer borrowing in the Fed's monthly report is up 6.9% from a year ago, a gain heavily influenced by the rise in the auto and student loan category. Growth in the category that covers credit cards has also accelerated in the past year.
The Fed's monthly credit report does not cover mortgages or other loans backed by real estate such as home equity loans. | 2019-04-23T18:36:24Z | https://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-consumer-borrowing-20150507-story.html |

When looking at the answers, on average, the Laravel community seems to mostly favor the ease of entry – virtually no learning curve. Whether that's good or bad is a discussion for another time, seeing as we ended up in this "PHP is bad" mess mostly due to a horde of newbies considering it an easy to enter market, but the excellent documentation, large scale community support and speed of development definitely work in its favor. Another frequently mentioned advantage seems to be an active and impressively alive IRC channel where help is given instantly.

From kite flying to cycling, walking and sledging, the list of things to see and do at Box Hill these school holidays is endless. What will you get up to on a visit to Box Hill?
Box Hill's woodlands are a magical world of scents and colours; marvel as the seasons change, look for birds and mammals who call this place home and let your children explore the wonders of nature's playground.
Head to Box Hill during the school holidays to take part in our children's trail; go on an adventure and choose to be a mouse, shrew, vole or sparrow on the run from some hungry owls. Available from the shepherd's hut, we ask for a donation of £1 per trail. Dress for mess and have lots of seasonal fun.
Box Hill is famous for its expansive view from the Salomons Memorial. On a good day you can see 26 miles across the Weald to the South Downs. Breathe in deep and marvel as the colours of the countryside seem to change day by day.
Head to the shepherd's hut to borrow a tracker pack or kite. Tracker packs contain all the ingredients for little adventurers to explore the natural world around them. The Burford Spur is a great place to fly a kite.
The Old Fort was one of 13 built along the North Downs. They were built in the 1890s as mobilisation centres. Collectively known as the London Defence Scheme, they were considered ‘the last ditch attempt to save the capital of the world's largest Empire.’ The Fort has never been used in battle and is now a roost for bats.
For muddy paws and happy tails, head to Box Hill to blow those cobwebs away and treat your four-legged friend to a day out. Head over to the shepherd's hut for a doggy biscuit and the low down on the best places to walk at Box Hill. Please don't forget to read our important information about responsible dog walking.
Join us for a free guided walk over Box Hill every Wednesday morning. Meet at 11.30am at the shepherd's hut for the 3 mile (5km) walk over some uneven and hilly ground. Our guide, Mike, will share stories along the way about the people who have made Box Hill special. Stout boots are recommended; the walk will last approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes. Minimum of two people required.
Head over to the information board by the cafe, or our team at the shepherd's hut by the car park to pick up a free walking trail around Box Hill - there are five walks to choose from, ranging from half an hour to 4 hour long walks.
Come rain or shine, fair weather or dull, Box Hill is a great place to blow the cobwebs away. Take a kite on blustery days or pull on your boots for a good walk through the woodland.
Box Hill boasts fantastic terrain for road cycling and has become a renowned circuit because of the London 2012 Olympic road races. We host a gruelling stretch of Prudential's RideLondon event too.
The Friends of Box Hill support the Trust to improve amenities and tell people about the unique ecology of the site. | 2019-04-25T17:00:31Z | https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/box-hill/features/things-to-see-and-do-at-box-hill |

HBO has joined the ranks of Hollywood entertainment companies to suffer a major cyber attack.
http://ew.com has learned that upcoming episodes of a couple series and at least one alleged script or treatment have been put online by hackers who breached the company’s systems — with more threatened to be coming soon.
It’s not clear if the hackers actually have what would be the crown jewel target for an HBO cyber breach — upcoming episodes of the company’s biggest hit, Game of Thrones. So far, no GoT episodes have leaked.

This cable replacement kit restores the cable on your Showstopper slip tip and the cable loop on your NOMAD pole spears. Although stainless steel cable is tough as nails, over time it gets worn out. We recommend replacing the cable occasionally to allow your gear to function properly and to make sure it is as strong as possible.
This kit comes with two cables and crimps. The longer one is for replacing the cable from the Showstopper tip and the short one is for replacing the loop on the NOMAD pole spear. | 2019-04-21T18:20:46Z | https://www.headhunterspearfishing.com/collections/all-products-collection/products/cable-replacement-kit-for-nomad |
I'm not sure if this is valid or not. I think what Coverity is saying is that if data->GetChannels() == 0, then we don't hit the loop body, and end up leaking channelData. Can that happen? It seems like channelData doesn't leak if we go through the loop at least once.
ThreadSharedFloatArrayBufferList::mContents is a fallible array so that can happen.
That's an unlikely memory allocation failure, and we have a limit of 32 channels now so it need not be a fallible allocation.
But it would be reasonable to tidy up the code so that it didn't depend so much on the behavior of AudioBuffer methods.
Updated the commit message to mention the scaling bug that this fixes.
I see that web platform tests are not running on ASAN nor on Android, and so I'll probably move the test to dom/media/webaudio/test.

Android is a very vast platform with different hardwares from various OEMs all over the globe. Adopting a one-size-fits-all approach might not exactly be the best approach and Google knows this. A few years back Google came up with the Android One initiative, a partnership of some sorts in which OEM’s would produce hardware according to Google’s spec and Google would then be responsible for the software aspect. With this, users would enjoy all the Google’s googlies with frequent updates, all at a reasonable price.
A few of the biggest gripes people had with the project was that Android One phones lacked features and weren’t exactly pretty. I guess the alure of Stock Android wasn’t exactly for everyone. For a while we didn’t see much in the name of Android One and we thought things were dead.
But then sometime later we got the Xiaomi Mi A1, a beefy device that was thought to be the Google Pixel Lite. Google had no doubt changed tact. Android One that was meant to be for entry level devices seemed to have changed completely.
Android One still remains a standard by Google to OEMs. A hardware standard by Google that allows manufacturers to only worry about coming up with the hardware and Google handles the rest. This means the devices run an unmodified version of Android. This is aimed at providing a more unified software experience across a myriad of different OEMs and to further streamline software updates and security patches by having Google deal with it.
However, Android One now shifts focus to the mid-tier to high-end devices. These devices are set to bring the alure of unadulterated Android, the stability and frequent updates to a much wider range of devices, a fete that was previously reserved for Google’s own Nexus/Pixel devices. In some way, one might argue that Android One is basically Google reincarnating the Nexus project on a much wider spectrum.
And that is a good thing for the fanboys and diehard fans of our favourite Open Source Project. The fact that OEMs are actually hopping on-board and letting Google do the software is a sign that the stock operating system is becoming more mature and feature-packed. This is something previous iterations of Android clearly lacked. This drove OEM’s to go all out, out-performing each other with tons of bloatware and gimmicks.
Android Go now comes in to replace what Android One was meant to be. Android Go which Google would like us to refer to as “Android Oreo (Go Edition),” is a stripped-down version of Android meant to run on inexpensive, low-end devices. These are devices without much processing power, with limited amounts of RAM, and with a small amount of storage. Android Go is set to address the people with limited internet connectivity and expensive data plans that need to be carefully conserved.
Along with Android Go, Google is launching a bunch of their own apps that are stripped down, shrunken down and designed to use less data and occupy a lot less storage.
Also Read: Google’s YouTube Go allows for offline viewing and sharing.
This is directly aimed at people that are owning their first smartphones and you bet they will be making their way to our shores pretty soon. Also, a couple of OEMs have come in to develop Android Go powered devices. The ones launched at the just concluded MWC 2018 include the Nokia 1, Alcatel’s 1X, ZTE’s Tempo Go, Lava’s Z50, Micromax’s Bharat Go, and General Mobile’s GM 8 Go. As mentioned, many more are expected in the course of the year.
Are your excited for Android One or Android Go? Do you care for stock Android? Tell us in the comments. | 2019-04-22T20:30:13Z | https://www.dignited.com/27855/what-is-android-go-and-how-different-is-it-from-android-one/ |
Though the most elaborate Hindu temples are those dedicated to the worship male deities such as Shiva, Ganesha, Vishnu etc, far greater attention is paid to the propitiation of less august though more powerful and dangerous female deities. In addition to the popularity of such non-Tantrik female deities as Saraswati, Lakshmi and Parvati, the newars devote a great deal of their ritual activity to the worship of the Devi in one of her many dangerous mature, blood lusting forms (kali, Durga, Ajima, Bhairavi, Taleju etc). But the most notable and perhaps the unique feature of their religion is the prominence given to the worship of the Living Virgin Goddess — The Kumari.
Kumari Puja or “Virgin worship”, is a feature of Hinduism of the greatest antiquity dating back at least to the vedic period.The earliest known reference occurs in a Sixth or Seventh century B.C. in which the sakti (‘divine energy’ or ‘female creative principle’) is adressed as Kanya Kumari. Thus for the evidence points solely to the existance of the goddess called Kumari; there is no information at all concerning the nature of her worship. Vamsavali provides a due to the possble origin of the unique practice of worshipping young girls as living Kumaris. There are many tales of the evidence of the kumari.The history of the kumaris can be analysis in the many of the facts. The most valuable facts are mentioned here as below.
Once there was a raja(king) Lakshmikamadeva of kantipur who reigned from about 1024 to 1040 A.D. He thought that his grandfather had acqures so much wealth and conqueres the four quarters of the world through the aid of the Kumaris, resolved to do the same. With this intention he went to the Patan Durbar, and having worshipped as Kumari the daughter of a bandya(shakya cast), living in a bihar near the Durbar, known by the name of Lakshmi-barmam, he erected as images of kumari and established the Kumari Puja(“Virgin Worship”).
A similar tale focussing on the dice game and subsequent retreat of the goddess into the form of a shakya girl is told in Patan, though the relevent monarch is said to be either Sidhinarasingh(King of Patan”), the seventeenth century monarch who built the first Taleju Temple. The widely known story recounts how kumari as Taleju used to come to speak to Siddhinarasingh in his agama in the palace. He ruled the kingdom in accordance with her advice. Then one day when they were playing tripasa his queen saw them through the keyhole. She complained to the king and when the goddess heard this she told him that she could not come anymore to a palace where she was regarded with suspicion. Siddhinarasingh was worried and asked her if they couldnot perhaps continue to meet if she too some other form.She then told him that she would enter into the body of a young girl whose parents were of a degraded and low proession.Siddhinarasingh himself looked for such a family and he selected the doodah, a section of the Bajracharya caste whose members gather gold-dust from rubbish and melt it down for re-working.
The Kumari who was once the tutelary divinity of the malla kings of patan, is still of considerable importance, especially in her own town. King Siddhinarasingh malla used to play tripasa( a kind of game) with Kumari in his own palace. one day queen saw them playing tripasa through a key hole. She complained to the king and when the goddess heard this, told the king that she couldnot come to the palace where she was regarded with suspicion.The King felt afflicted by the misbehaviour of queen and he beged apolize himself and also requseted her to meet in the otherway.and then kumari let him know that she would take a birth in the middle class family. And house where kumari is borned is known as “kumari Ghar”(kumari’s house). And since the day, the house where living goddess kumari lives is regarded as “kumari ghar”.
Now Patan kumari has not granted the official house or governmental house yet. She has been living with her family in her family house. The residense of the family house of Kumari is knowm as the “Kumari Ghar”. The next new kumari has her own house as Kumari ghar. Recent kumari Chanira Bajracharya has being living with her family at the Ghabahal. It lies in the central part of the kumari city near by the Patan Durbar Square.
The girl must belong to the Bajracharya clan, a community of goldsmiths, no more than a handful in number.
Her family background must be impeccable with a reputation for piety, and the committee studies the candidate for calmness and poise.
She must possess all the 32 lachchins (characteristics) of physical perfection. Her skin must be blemish-free, her hair and eyes, very black. Her body has to be sturdy as a Banyan tree, thighs like those of a deer, neck like a conch-shell and tongue, small and moist. The voice will be crystal clear, hands and feet dainty and sexual organs small and well-recessed. Strangely, for a child, she should also have a set of 40 teeth.
Her horoscope must match that of the king’s.
If the blood-loving Taleju is to reside in her, she must not be repelled at the sight of gore. And to test her fearlessness, the child is pushed into an odiferous room with 108 decapitated buffalos laid out in a sea of blood. Men wearing horrid masks dance among them in an effort to frighten the child, who walks clockwise through this scene of carnage. If she cries out, faints or shows any sign of hysteria, she is immediately disqualified and the next candidate is brought forward for consideration.
Spiralling lines on the soles of the feet.
Long and well formed toes.
Feet and hands like those of a duck (with netlike lines).
Feet and hands soft and firm.
The body broad at the shoulders and narrow at the waist.
Thighs like those of a deer.
Small and well recessed sexual organs.
Neck like a conch shell.
Teeth white and nicely shaped.
Voice clear and soft like a duck’s.
Eyelashes like those of a cow.
A beautiful complexion with white luster.
Skinpores small and not too open.
Hair-whorls stiff and turning to the right.
Head round with cone-shaped top.
Body shaped like a banyan tree.
Auntie Kumari is still virgin. She was selected and incarnated Goddess Kumari when she was 2 and half year. To the surprise to all whoever knows her and has visited the Kumari house admits there is one more miracle in the world to know how she has deserved the right to be worshipped and remained virgin even at the age of 56.
Officially Government denounced her as official Kumari on the only ground that she has grown old and can no longer be accepted as child and selected another one but in practice she remained virgin and maintained her chastity without being menstruated as yet at 56. She is being honored and worshipped as usual. | 2019-04-25T14:12:35Z | http://www.newar.com.np/kumari-the-living-goddess.html |

HOW ARE YOUR T-SHIRTS PRINTED?
All SHADEOGREY t-shirts are printed using state-of-the-art screen-printing processes and other apparel embellishment techniques, including soft-hand inks, water-based inks, specialty inks, foils, and flocks.
HOW SHOULD I CARE FOR MY SHADEOGREY T-SHIRTS? WILL THEY SHRINK?
The best way to care for your t-shirts is to turn them inside out and machine or hand wash them with cold water. Generally, cotton shrinks when it is washed and/or dried. Since all t-shirts have some percentage of cotton, they will tend to shrink a little after being washed and dried. The greatest amount of shrinkage occurs when the t-shirt is washed in hot water and dried on the hottest dryer setting. For the least shrinkage, dry on low or hang dry.
THE INK ON MY SHIRT IS INCONSISTENT. IS THIS A DEFECT?
If the ink is inconsistently printed on the seams or collar of the t-shirt, this is due to the nature of the design and print technique. THIS IS NOT A DEFECT. However, please do not hesitate to send an email to sup@shadeogrey.com with pictures of your product’s areas in question for further assistance.
Yes, but we screen the companies who are interested in carrying SHADEOGREY products. We want to make sure that SHADEOGREY is a good fit for the companies with which we work. If you would like more information, please contact us and include some background information about your shop/company. Retailers are required to have a physical, brick-and-mortar location to be considered for approval. Retailers that are exclusively internet-based will not be considered.
No, at the moment we focusing on design and leave the printing to the professionals.
All our t-shirts and hoodies are screen printed. Most of the shirts are printed with water-based or discharge ink which leaves an extremely soft print. A few may use t-shirt vinyls and some plastisol to get desired bright white print. Check the product pages for the specific type of printing for each individual product.
Because we use soft water-based ink on most designs, some of the prints will fade some after being washed. Black prints tend to fade the most, but will hold up for lots of wear and washes.
CAN I PAY FOR YOUR MERCHANDISE ONLINE?
Yes, you can make purchases online through Paypal and Paynow. We accept VISA and MASTERCARD both local and international Debit and Credit Cards as well as local Debt Cards from CBZ, POSB, CABS, FBC Bank, Tetrad and ZB Bank.

SHADEOGREY is a verified Paynow merchant with a BuySafe function that protects you the buyer. We’ve designed our website to protect the information you provide us over the Internet.

All secure credit card data entered is encrypted over another channel directly to the bank’s processing facility.Neither the buyer nor the seller can see the other partys credit card or bank account information.
WHAT WILL APPEAR ON MY MERCHANT?
Paynow operates an escrow-type service called Buysafe to protect and reassure buyers. Buysafe protects the buyer by ensuring that the payers funds are only disbursed to the Merchant once the buyer is satisfied that the goods have been delivered or service has been rendered. The Merchant must make a delivery declaration to after which the buyer is afforded a 24-hour window to dispute delivery via a simple process on the Paynow website.
Where a dispute is registered by a buyer, the Merchant may elect to return the buyers funds by reversing the transaction or may challenge the buyer by providing acceptable Proof Of Delivery. If the Merchant and buyer are unable to resolve the matter directly, they may request mediation through Paynow. In complex cases, Paynow may refer the matter to an external body for independent arbitration.
IS MY MONEY SAFE? WHAT HAPPENS IF I DO NOT GET MY GOODS?
Depending on the merchant Paynow uses a delivery escrow service. The escrow service holds your payment in a Paynow holding account until the merchant has confirmed the goods are delivered at which point you will be notified by email and SMS (if you are a registered user). You have 24 hours to dispute the transaction if the goods are not received in good order. If a transaction has been disputed Paynow will initiate third party mediation to resolve the dispute. Please note mediation may incur costs to the customer or merchant.
If the merchant does not make use of the escrow service, or you elect to bypass it and acknowledge delivery has already happened, or the 24 hour dispute window has expired, Paynow cannot mediate any disputes and you will need to resolve the issue directly with the merchant. Please check the transaction details at the confirm payment stage as to whether the merchant is using the escrow service or not.
The buyer gets the opportunity to rate and review the seller’s service for all transactions over $20. Check previous ratings and whether the seller has Buysafe enabled. SHADEOGREY is a Verified Paynow Merchant. | 2019-04-21T13:08:01Z | http://shadeogrey.com/faq/ |
Finally the Texas heat is coming down. The cool autumn is coming. I will be busy teaching in this beautiful season. I have arranged quite a few workshops. some of them are quite full, but I still have a few opening for two workshops. One will be in Wethersfield Connecticut organized by Wethersfield Academy of Arts on October 24 -26. If you are in New England, or want to go there in this colorful foliage season, please contact Betty Standish to register. Another workshop will be at Magnolia near Houston Texas organized by ARLC on November 9 - 11. Please contact Marty Hatcher to sign up. I am looking forward to sharing my art with you. The photo I posted here was at Newport Rhode Island. I was doing my demo painting. My workshops do fill quickly. I wish you good luck.
The workshop at Jacksonville is over now, and I am on my way back to Austin. I feel so blessed, and very grateful to so many people supporting my art. I hope I did not wear out too much of my workshop artists those three days. The information was overwhelming. Please make sure you review the notes and practice regularly. You will see the progress for sure.
I am in Jacksonville FL now. This is what I did yesterday on my workshop. I want to thank Eileen Corse for putting this workshop together, and thank all artists from all over. This is my second trip to Florida this year. Travel has become a normal part of my life now. Hurricane Isaac is still pour down a lot of rain here. Yesterday was a busy day for me. Besides the workshop during the day, I did also a quick portrait for one of the artists. Now I am forming this quick blog post before my class starts for the second day.
It looks that my calligraphy/stilllife painting works well in small format (5x7). Now I want paint a little larger. I did this 9x12 yesterday. The character in this painting means "peaceful". Many Chinese characters can be decomposed into simpler characters, just like some English words have "prefix and suffix". For this one, the upper part means "a house" and the lower part means "woman". So "a woman in a house" means "peaceful". I guess the better interpretation should be: if you are in a family, you will have a peaceful life. In our modern life, traditional family life is out of fashion. We emphasize more on individuals. Maybe that is the reason we don't have much peace nowadays.
After my last post, I have received quite a few friends' comments and emails. Thank you so much. Your words warm my heart. AAU and figurative painting are dreams coming true to me. I had wonderful times, and gained useful skills and knowledges. However, I have also realized that I can't solve some of the problems in two hours, putting something down maybe harder than picking something up. But I need to be rational and practical. I really need to have my left brain cells kick in, and treat each of my paintings as a scientific project.
I have a workshop coming up soon. So I did this 9"x12" to warm up. I feel a little rusty and need some force to get the momentum going. I didn't give too much composition thought on this one. After my breakfast yesterday, I simply move our family fruit plate to my studio. I have vague ideas in my mind. From my still life with Chinese characters studies, I know I want to work on depicting abundance of things. I am going decrease the gap between still life and landscape paintings.
"Head Study 4 at AAU"
I have not painted for several days. To keep my blog going, I post a painting I did before. This head study I did at AAU. All my AAU paintings are 12" x 16" or larger. I can't sell them as my small still life studies. I really don't know how to market them. If you are interested in them, please contact me.
I didn't paint is because I am having a mental problem. I was like a drug addict with an obsession, I was so into figure drawing and couldn't stop doing it. You may have noticed if you read my previous post. It was not that I was so indulged into what I did, but I just couldn't stand the problems I had seen in my figure work. I thought I could fix that problem in two hours. However, the hours turned into days, and days became weeks, ... I was like a desperate gambler in front a slot machine, hoping the next quarter I put in it will bring me a good fortune. I was so frustrated. I ignore painting, ignore I have a business to run, ignore my family and I need to eat. I need a life coach or a rehab to fix me up. Boy! I never thought that learning can be so harmful.
Now I force myself putting down my pencils (similar to a smoker putting down the cigarette). I understood (at least theoretically) that craving is a universal disease. It is the source of all suffering. | 2019-04-20T21:23:26Z | http://qiang-huang.blogspot.com/2012/09/ |
After trying the polenta chips at Jamie's Kitchen, I've been keen to recreate them and these turned out just as addictive, crispy on the outside and pillow-y on the inside. If you want to make a healthier alternative, you can always bake them instead of frying them.
Reduce heat to low and slowly add polenta, stirring constantly.
Pour into a small tray, lined with greased baking paper. Smooth the surface, then cover in cllngwrap and refrigerate for 1.5 hours.
After the polenta has become firm, remove from the tray and cut into bite sized squares.
I have honestly never had polenta before it sounds interesting and looks YUMMY!
Polenta chips are SO my jam. The ones at Jamie's Italian are amazing. These look delish!
I LOVE the idea of polenta chips!! I've had polenta in many forms, but never like this!!
That is such a huge compliment coming from an amazing cook like you!
I've been keen to try polenta chips but they never looked good enough to convince my hubby and kids to give them a try, these look like they would do the trick though! Yum.
They will love the crunchy gold nuggets!
Oh wow, this looks deeelish! Thanks so much for joining the linkup!
Oooooh, my last attempt at something with polenta was a mushy fail ... I reckon this would be a good way to show that polenta can actually be edible :) More than just edible in fact, they look very addictive!
Oh my goodness, these look delicious. The question is, can I make enough that they aren't demolished in 10 seconds flat?!
These look absolutely scrumolicious!! Thanks for sharing such a great recipe!
Yum! These look really good! It makes me want to grab one and take a bite. I love the plate too!
I'd walk a long way for polenta chipps and these look like I'd be setting out soon -if I knew where you lived.
This looks amazing! I haven't cooked with polenta before, but will have to try. | 2019-04-18T13:26:43Z | http://www.house-in-tillford.com/2014/10/recipe-polenta-chips-with-rosemary-and.html |
The park María Reiche is one of the most beautiful of Miraflores by night time, the location of the park right above the cliff, and the figures of the Nazca lines illuminated by night time, its multicolored flowers and the very sea view make this place a good destination for anyone looking for a relaxing walk.
The name of the park is a commemoration to a beloved and celebrated woman by all Peruvians, Maria Reiche was a German mathematician. Loved by the people of Nazca (a town located in the south of Peru) they thanked her passion for protecting one or our patrimonies the mysterious lines of Nazca, and our millenarian history renouncing to her home country and life in Germany to never return there, and staying in this country until her passing in 1998. Fruit to her many years of investigations we now can understand better our Pre-Inca culture called Nazca. She helped to uncover their story from the sands of the dessert, thanks to her the world is interested now in overflying those drawings, looking to see them to their full extent as it was meant to be done by the Gods that reside on the skies.

Decorate As You Dress!! My Summer White Toy Watch!
Wow……it’s certainly been a while since I posted a Decorate as you dress blog posting. My sister was visiting from British Columbia so we spent some quality time together and I’ve been crazy busy with decorating projects for clients – which I can’t wait to share with you.
But now let’s get to my most favourite fashion accessory of the moment: my gorgeous white Toy Watch!! It’s such a fun accessory and every time I look at that huge white face I just think of beautiful layers of white drapery billowing in the wind.
So when I saw this all white home in Style at Home Magazine designed by design editor Ann Marie Favot , it so reminded me of my Toy Watch!!
So crisp and clean….like my watch!!
Love this vignette!! And the hit of colour through pretty flowers in a small vase!
I’m so in love with all white kitchens…I can’t wait to reveal Lee Ann’s Kitchen reno to you all!!
How gorgeous is that hanging light fixture……a perfect example of mid-century modern lighting.
How glam is this bedroom??? Ohhh yes, it’s a GLAM SLAM!!! This room almost makes me want to switch my bedroom over to an all-white colour scheme.
Love her creative use of IKEA chests placed together at different heights. What a lovely dressing/vanity area.
Hope my White Toy Watch inspired you as much as it inspired me!!
If your home is craving some all-white glamour, then contact me online or in person! I’d love to help!

STEWART Plant Sales will showcase the new range of JCB site dumpers, boasting capacities spanning from one to nine-tonnes, at ScotPlant 2018.
JCB described its new dumper line-up as taking site dumper safety to “previously unachievable levels”. Features include a two-year warranty and all-steel construction, compliance with the latest safety legislation and the availability of the JCB SiTESAFE cab, with reinforced frame and impact protection, on 6-9 tonne models.
Of particular importance has been the launch of a high visibility seven-tonne model. The JCB 7T-1 Front Tip Hi-Viz model was introduced in response to safety concerns around issues of visibility, stability and operator protection. By using a low-slung chassis design and revised skip, JCB explained that the the operator benefits from “huge improvements” in front visibility.
“Compared to a conventional six-tonne dumper when laden, the 7T-1 Hi-Viz model offers a 77% improvement,” JCB stated.
Stewart Plant Sales is also responsible for the sales and service support for the JCB Access range which includes nine electric scissor lifts.
Also on the Stewart Plant Sales stand will be Atlas Copco portable air compressors and tools, Norton Clipper concrete and stone-cutting machinery, Western Global fuel, water and oil bowsers and tanks and Obart surface and submersible pumps.
Further JCB kit will include JCB compaction equipment models such as the JCB VM137 self-propelled soil compactor and the JCB range of tandem vibratory rollers including VMT 160-80 and VMT260-120 models. These will be joined by the HTD5 high tip dumpster and a series of JCB handheld breakers and compaction plates. | 2019-04-21T01:09:36Z | https://scotplant.com/2018/04/09/safety-features-aid-new-site-dumper-visibility/ |
NAR has designated September as Realtor Safety Month. There’s no time like the present for some safety tips.
Most of us will hold an open house at one time or another, so it’s a good idea to follow some safety guidelines so we don’t become a victim of crime.
Open houses are a great way to meet new buyers and expose your listing to the public, but they can be a target for criminals.
1. If possible, have at lease one other person working with you at the open house.
2. Check the strength, signal and the battery life of your cell phone before the open house.
3. Upon entering the house, check all rooms and select several “escape ” routes.
4. Make sure that escape routes through the back door do not prohibit your escape from the back yard. Make sure there are no high fences or locked gates.
5. Have all open house visitors sign in. Ask for full name, address, phone number and email.
6. When showing a house, try to walk behind them or along side of them.
7. Avoid getting cornered or trapped in small rooms, etc. Do not let a visitor distract you while someone else is in the house.
8. Inform a neighbor of the open house and make sure your office, family or friend are aware of your open house and check in with them frequently.
9. Tell the owners not to leave any drugs, jewelry or valuables out.
10. At the end of an open house, check all the rooms and yard before leaving. Close all windows and lock all doors. Be aware of your surroundings and be careful getting into your car.
Keep Flies Away With One Simple Trick…It Really Works!
I recently saw a post on facebook about this trick…and I never thought about blogging about it until now, since so many people had never heard of this, I thought it would be worth sharing.
My wife’s family has been doing this for many years to control flies the natural way. I was skeptical until we tried it ourselves. It really does work. We would just put in 1 penny and sometimes a crumbled up piece of aluminum foil in a bag, filled it with water and then hung it by a tree, under a patio umbrella or wherever pesky flies would be. It definitely works!
Below are comments on this fly control idea.
Zip-lock water bags: #1 Says: I tried the zip lock bag and pennies this weekend. I have a horse trailer. The flies were bad while I was camping. I put the baggies with pennies above the door of the LQ. NOT ONE FLY came in the trailer.The horse trailer part had many. Not sure why it works but it does!
#2 Says:Fill a zip lock bag with water and 5 or 6 pennies and hang it in the problem area. In my case it was a particular window in my home. It had a slight passage way for insects. Every since I have done that, it has kept flies and wasps away. Some say that wasps and flies mistake the bag for some other insect nest and are threatened.
#3 Says:I swear by the plastic bag of water trick. I have them on porch and basement. We saw these in Northeast Mo. at an Amish grocery store& have used them since. They say it works because a fly sees a reflection& won’t come around.
#4 Says:Regarding the science behind zip log bags of water? My research found that the millions of molecules of water presents its own prism effect and given that flies have a lot of eyes, to them it’s like a zillion disco balls reflecting light, colors and movement in a dizzying manner. When you figure that flies are prey for many other bugs, animals, birds, etc., they simply won’t take the risk of being around that much perceived action. We went from hundreds of flies to seeing the occasional one, but he didn’t hang around long.
In the heat of the summer, you may be cranking up the air-conditioning to stay comfortable, but don’t forget about your four-legged pals — especially if they’re spending a lot of time outdoors. Consider these five fun and easy ways to keep them cool and happy.
It may sound obvious, but your dog and other pets need access to plenty of fresh, cold water. On a really hot day, you might toss a few ice cubes in the bowl to keep the water even colder. There are also ice cream treats designed specifically for dogs, or you can find recipes online to make your own. Here’s one clever idea — fill an ice cube tray with chicken broth or beef broth and then toss your dog a “pop” once the individual squares are frozen.
Many dogs love to get wet, whether they are splashing in a stream, swimming in a lake or jumping into a kiddie pool in your backyard. You can also set up a sprinkler for them to run through.
There are always new products on the market to keep pets cool in the heat, such as cooling bandanas and collars, pet beds that can be filled with cool water, and a collapsible water dish that you can carry anywhere — from a hike to a car ride. Keep in mind that if you’re driving with your dog, do not leave him waiting in the car for you, even if you crack the windows. His body temperature can rise quickly in a hot car and prove fatal.
If you’re heading out for a walk or involving your pet in other outdoor activities, make sure to plan your excursion during cooler parts of the day (morning and early evening). The middle of the day is usually the hottest, and too much activity during this time can lead to an overheated pet. Pay attention to your pet’s cues and seek the advice of a vet if she is exhibiting any health problems.
If your pet stays outdoors, make sure he has a shady place to retreat when the heat becomes too intense. If you don’t have any natural shade in your yard, consider getting a beach umbrella or invest in a doghouse.
With a little bit of thought and preparation, you can prevent your pets from suffering in the summer sun. And they’ll love you all the more for it.

For decades there has always been a difference of opinion with homeowners and an appraiser when they need that critical number to match the refinance package that is underway with their lender.
The appraiser value opinion is only 1 opinion…but guess what, it’s the opinion that counts with your lender.
1) Leaving the home untidy. Having an un-kept exterior or interior can cause an appraiser to decrease the value somewhat. Reminder owners – curb appeal is also important for an appraisal. Overgrown bushes or an un-kept home exterior could prompt an appraiser to take as much as 3 percent off the value, according to a CNN Money article.
2) Having incomplete remodeling projects. Don’t keep a remodeling project unfinished prior to an appraisal. If it’s a must, make sure you include details of the complete project and when it is to be finished to the appraiser.
So needless to say, all the complaining in the world to your lender won’t overcome the self sabotage…take care of projects, clean up and focus on the homes overall presentation before starting your refinance package. Treat the home like you were getting it ready to go up for sale. Lots of preparation, repairs and primping is worth all the effort. Because, when the time comes for that appraisal value analysis…you’ll be glad you did! | 2019-04-20T04:19:50Z | https://michaelcaruso.wordpress.com/tag/newport-beach/ |
The Lopue’s Table Tennis Association, headed by Leonito “Diotay” Lopue, along with sports benefactor James Sy, recently distributed table tennis shoes and equipment to several players from the grassroots.
Lopue and Sy led the distribution of 26 pairs of brand new Mizuno table tennis shoes from Japan to the players, who are also members of the University of St. La Salle-LOPTTA table tennis team.
Sy believes that the performance of the players will greatly improved if they are provided with the proper equipment.
“We are very thankful to the generous donation from Mr. Sy. We are truly blessed,” Lopue said. | 2019-04-26T14:04:18Z | http://www.visayandailystar.com/2018/July/02/sportnews3.htm |
Angelique Kerber vs Bianca Andresscu. She reached the girls' singles semifinals at the 2016 US Open and the 2017 Australian Open, and won the Aussie Open and French Open girl's doubles titles in 2017, with Carson Branstine.
"If you believe in yourself, anything is possible", Andreescu said as she hoisted the crystal trophy as the youngest player ever to win one of the WTA's prestigious Premier Mandatory tournaments.
She said she hoped the Indian Wells title would do for her what it did for Naomi Osaka a year ago.
Bruneau stepped away from Fed Cup captain duties previous year to focus on coaching Andreescu and others in the Canadian women's program.
It was the flawless start for the 18-year-old Canadian, breaking Kerber and mixing up the pace she was throwing at the German. Kerber raced to get it and sent a forehand down the line to get to deuce.
The first game was the lone blip for Kerber who otherwise had played brilliantly in the set. "It's just hitting heavy to her backhand with more spin".
The veteran left-hander finds herself on the opposite end of the career trajectory as Andreescu, with 28 finals appearances under her belt, 10 of which were at Indian Wells. He just needed to convince her that she had the fight, that she had the strength, that she had to go for every point.
"She did a good job then at the end, especially the last three games", Kerber said. She had already received treatment in the right arm and shoulder area.
She broke Kerber in the next game, taking a 15-30 lead with a lovely drop shot-lob combination, and giving herself a break point with an overhead victor before converting with another forehand victor to launch a run of three straight games for a 5-3 lead. The Canadian had a slight opening at 15-30 but could not capitalize, slicing the ball into the net to send this match into a decider.
The eighth-seeded German pulled ahead in the set by breaking in the fifth game.
Bruneau told Andreescu to push and to stay strong under the adversity.
The teen had three match points on her serve before trying one of her patented drop shots. | 2019-04-20T02:22:47Z | http://nanyang100.com/2019/03/21/teen-sensation-andreescu-stuns-kerber-to-win-indian-wells/ |
We have proved that our systematic and step-wise approach to yield improvement delivers large yield improvements as a result of more focused management and generally small adjustments to external input use.
We advocate setting up best management practice (BMP) blocks (1 block per 1,000 ha) where all agronomic practices are implemented without compromise, even when resources (budget allocation, material availability) are scarce. Yields in BMP blocks reach the likely upper limit after about 40 months (i.e., the time interval between floral initiation and bunch harvest). BMP blocks then provide benchmark information on maximum economic yield over the long term.
Increased production without increasing area.
Negligible capital expenditure outlay for increased production.
BMP blocks provide clear information on the size of yield gaps and maximum economic yield.
Best management practices lead to better environmental standards.
Testing ground for new technologies (e.g., new spraying techniques, new agrochemicals).
Training ground where staff can see what the correct agronomic techniques look like in practice.
Estimation of the cost of implementing and maintaining best management practices.
Estimation of the time required to close yield gaps. | 2019-04-26T05:37:25Z | https://www.tropcropconsult.com/field-services/bmp/ |
It's a lazy Friday morning in the Nautiemermate household. Yesterday, I celebrated my 'fake birthday'. I'll be on the Mainland for my REAL birthday and Travel Buddy will be far away so my friends encouraged me to have an early celebration. It was fun! I may have had one too many diet seven ups.....which is why it's a lazy Friday morning. Wanna hear something quasi exciting? I'm going over to look at earrings this morning! Is there anything cooler than looking at earrings? Why yes, yes there is. Taking your own shells to make earrings with!
I found a bunch of shells on the ship when we heaved up anchor one day. The anchor was COVERED in mud and of course it fell all over the deck as we cleaned it off. Of course, I had to dig through it looking for shells! There were an amazing amount of beauties. (Looking at them now I will admit they are a little on the rough side and probably won't be getting turned into wearable jewels.). I also found shells in Rota, Spain and Poti, Georgia.
I can't wait to see what I end up with! | 2019-04-22T02:30:11Z | http://www.nautiemermate.com/blog/shell-selections |
Voyager5 • New flagship commercial platform from Walkera.
With the Voyager5 Walkera have created a modern platform, with IP43 weather rating, dual IMU, GPS and Compass for reliable operation, optical-flow to steady the aircraft during take-off and landings, and when flying in environments with poor or no GPS signal, and a number of attractive payload options. Including Thermal camera package, 30x zoom package and more. Click through for the full post.
** Im still writing this post, and will be adding pictures and details over the next couple days, pitch in below with questions and stuff you like to see added to the write-up.
If you have been following Walkera the last decade or so, you could say its about time, just couple years ago the company manufactured a series of large hobby quads that was notoriously unreliable, I owned several and learned to operate knowing their weaknesses, but that was far from ideal.
For commercial operation you need platforms that are reliable all day long, and Walkera demonstrated this firmly beginning 2016 with the Voyager 4, I have had a Voyager4 for about a year, and am comfortable saying, up until now, the Voyager 4 was hands down the best multirotor from Walkera ever. it was reliable, boringly predictable, and did exactly what I expected from it at any time. Its biggest short coming was the short battery life.
With that, the stage is set for the all new Voyager 5. So far I have flown it only about a week, and its already proving a worthy successor to my trusty Voyager4. its far easier to deploy than the V4, build like a tank and reassuringly smooth in take-off and landing.
The take-off / landing personality is mostly a product of the optical-flow camera system. that manages drift at low altitude. As soon as it gets up a bit, the GPS system takes over, and so far my experience says that the Voyager 5 stays solid even when coming up into wind. overall, im very pleased with the flight characteristic.
UP close and personal the Voyager5 is a beast of a drone, its ready-to-fly take off weight is 10.6 pounds or about 4.8kg. this is a lot beefier than your average consumer drone, but even hauling 5kg through the sky, the Voyager5 feels quick and precise to fly, you can easily manage it in the sky with precision.
The FlightTime was a biggie with the V4, and walkera have dealt with it firmly, the new V5 have 3 batteries, (it is capable of flying on just one if need be) flying the V5 naked (no camera or payload) it have been tested to about 41 minutes before auto landing, hanging the beefy 30X zoom camera on the platform, reduce the flight time to about 30 minutes. practically speaking I tend to land between 20-25 minutes and my low voltage is set to 30%.
Walkera have finally completely implemented the downward looking camera for managing drift and positioning at low altitudes. this is especially important at take-off and landing where in the old days multirotor tended to want to slide a bit sideways as soon as they got off the ground. the Voyager4 had that solved, and the Voyager5 is perfect coming straight up as it was on a lift. no sliding its rock stable.
I flew the Voyager5 at 2m (6feet roughly) indoor in a metal roof building with no GPS signal.. the app indicated optical-flow active and the aircraft was locked in place just like it would have been outdoor. *I have not yet tested the height limits for the optical flow, but thats probably not a big issue since eventually we have to move out-door to get higher anyway.
The Voyager5 have a new flight controller utilizing dual GPS-GLOSNAS receivers along with dual compass and IMU systems for increased flight stability. using dual IMU & GPS systems is the trend in all commercial systems, as it protect agains drop-outs and mid-flight failures.
While not common on consumer systems, I feel dual systems is a requirement for commercial operation, this make the Voyager5 a comfortable choice for commercial missions.
The Voyager5 is advertised as being IP43 rated, that technically speaking means resisting water drops at angles less than 60 degrees. so not resisting completely sideways water but most. that should probably do the trick, that said, Im not sure I'm keen on testing this.
At the moment the most notable camera for the Voyager5 is the 4K 30x zoom camera. I have not yet concluded testing, but resolution is good on the wide end, with resolution falling off after 15x zoom. The camera is optical zoom, this is probably related to some degree of digital image stabilization which is required to stabilize the image at full zoom. The amount of data you can pull out of the image at 30X is significantly more than you get from the wide shot. so yes, it is proper optical zoom, not just enlarging pixels. Frankly a very impressive camera.
The camera is designed for surveillance and industrial inspection applications. its NOT designed for pretty picture profiles. however it may also be quite interesting for news-teams because of the long zoom on a aerial platform, for those days when the content of the image outweighs a slightly inferior image quality for broadcast.
Here is a frame-grab from the video, the right is full 30x zoom, to the left is the shot before zooming in, shot from 100m range.
* The aircraft is also available without cameras as just a airframe.
* The X30 camera is interchangeable with the X18 camera from the Voyager4 series, you should be able to bring your 18x camera from the Voyager 4 along to a Voyager5 platform if you wanted to.
At the moment Walkera have a Thermal camera in test for the voyager5, and are developing a more standard non-zoom 16megapix camera intended for 3D mapping mostly. but it may also serve as a good entry level camera on the Voyager for users who do not need the more expensive zoom or thermal camera options.
EDIT, there is currently also a agriculture analysis camera system available, this is a complete software package. contact Walkera or shoot me a PM for more information.
Did a couple shots at the office to get a if the camera actually did have optical zoom. you can see the wide shot on top with the electric outlet marked with a red box to show roughly the space of the zoomed in shot.
First the wide shot, optical zoom at full wide, even at fully wide you have a far longer shot than the typical drone camera.
Here is the zoomed in shot, full optical zoom, take a close look at the composite below, click to see at 100%, OK so this is NOT the worlds best zoom, but it definitely do the job, the digital file with the zoom holds a lot more details than the wide shot.
The third image is a composite at 100% (when you click on it to see full size) you can easily see that the right shot holds far more details than the left which is cropped and scaled up from the first capture.
I shot JPG's and you probably notice the left shot is overly compressed, would like a higher JPG quality setting.. But heck, this camera was not created for photographers and more for surveillance and inspection, I doubt bridge inspectors will spend much time lamenting JPG quality settings.
Personally Im most excited about two other gimbals they are working on, as Walkera are creating support for the FLIR VUE and FLIR DuoPro camera with a set of Voyager 4 & 5 gimbals for these cameras, Im one of many users to have picked up a VUE camera for thermal applications, only to find myself and many others flying the VUE in awkward 3D printed inspire mounts. a proper platform for the VUE is a big advantage to the Voyager 4 & 5 series from my perspective as I get calls to fly the thermal one a regular basis and my 3D printed setup is functional but far from ideal.
Walkera use a set of 3 batteries on the Voyager5. this is literally 3 times the power of the Voyager4, which is good news for us all because it means we have lots of power for the duration of the flight.
The charging station is a 3 bay brick that charge 3 batteries in one go, after a 25 minute flight the charger took about 90 minutes to recharge the set.
BTW the batteries are 6S (22.8v) 4300mah which add up to the legal shipping limit on each batter of 100wh. naturally the 100wh is also the reason most manufactures started breaking batteries into smaller pieces to keep it easy to travel with the platforms. A possible upside of this development, we can hope manufactures start using the same modules on more platforms moving forward.
Take a CLOSER look, notice whats missing..? Yeah thats right, this picture show the V5 flying with only ONE battery, this is important, because it mean the Voyager5 will continue to fly with two battery failures. naturally you will get a low-battery warning and should land ASAP, but the important part is, that the aircraft is still flying and your investment is safe.
The controller is mostly the trusty F18 that have accommodated most of the newer Walkera products, its a solid radio with traditional sticks for control, rotating switches have replaced flip-switches, and the deck is clearly lapeled with the functions available in each position. there are 5 lights on the bottom front of the radio indicating charge status, always make sure you have a charged radio when flying.
The F18 radio have a USB out port for tablet connection and require 12v from the battery charger to recharge.
*Remember ALWAYS turn on the radio before powering the aircraft.
Personally I would have liked to see the IR sensor deployed on all 4 sides for 360 obstacle avoidance, this is a small issue, but would make for fantastic support when flying indoor where IR sensors are very effective.
The Voyager 4 & 5 both use the slick new APP interface, thankfully Walkera have chosen to make a hard-wired connection to the smartphone-tablet rather than some companies that still use WiFi connections for the flight tablet.
The app is easy to use, fairly well laid out, personally I think all of the app on the market suffers from the developers not being hard-core quad pilots, however the latest Walkera App is surprisingly easy to use and show you the information you need at the time directly without adding confusing information.
The platform have been flown to 41 minutes "naked" without a camera onboard.
adding the 30x zoom camera it flew to 31 minutes before auto-landing, but remember you may need to fly back from somewhere, so 20 minutes is probably a good time to start thinking about the trip back home.
The Voyager5 have been tested to 5km which is roughly 3+ miles, not as far as some, but more than adequate for the design-mission of industrial inspection and event / incident monitoring.
Practically speaking I have virtually never really flown a mission requiring 5 miles of range, both when doing 3D mapping, and inspections I have rarely exceeded 1000m. however for a couple SAR missions we pushed out to about 3 miles. only you can really evaluate the actual needs for your drone operation in terms of range. but its probably safe to say anything past 1000m is far out of the FAA mandated LOS commercial operation requirement.
Walkera are good at providing functional transport cases, the Voyager5 standard case is well laid out, easy to get the aircraft in and out from it, its easy to move with 4 rollers and a extendable handle to function as roll-along luggage.
But I can't help wish for a injection moulded case with the same layout. something bullet proof for airplane shipping and traveling around loose in the back of trucks in the desert kinda stuff. I would suggest offering that as a optional case upgrade when ordering the aircraft.
How do this all stack up then?
Wellll... thats always a question hugely depending on your typical missions.
At this time the Voyager5 is a strong value proposition for inspection missions, and will be stronger when the thermal camera package is released.
The 30x camera don't quite cut in for broadcast and photography. the sensor is simply not creating a "pretty" enough file, I suspect its running higher ISO than I would prefer because of the light-loss in the monster optical zoom lens. That is a tradeoff to get some killer zoom shots, engineers, police and fire will surely make that tradeoff in a heartbeat, but photographers will probably take pause here.
Broadcast news then? well, yeah actually probably this will be a interesting news drone, mostly because you can get up to 400 feet and get a tight shot at the long end of the zoom if you don't have a helicopter handy, think of it as a 400-feet pole-cam option.
Chime in below.. what are your suggested Voyager5 missions, how are you using the Voyager5? did I miss features and details or forget weaknesses? chime in and I will try to update the write-up accordingly.
Love the portability factor, for someone like myself thats a big plus though it does not look as good as the previous models in business that cant be a factor..
That is a terrific review of Walkera Voyager 5. It's looks great and is very robust. Love the camera options. This is going to be a terrific choice for site surveying and for search and rescue teams. | 2019-04-25T14:18:33Z | https://www.fpvguy.com/2018/01/voyager5.html |

Whisk together the maple syrup and mustard. Season both sides of the salmon fillets liberally with salt and pepper, then brush them with the maple-mustard mixture and set aside.
Meanwhile, heat the oven to 450°F. In a large bowl, toss the sprouts and onion with the oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until well-coated. Spread them out on a baking sheet, cut side-down, and roast on the lower rack until caramelized and tender, 20-30 minutes.
When the sprouts are nearly done, arrange the fillets on an oven-proof dish and broil them, skin-side down, until the maple mixture is well-caramelized and the fish is just cooked through—7 to 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillet.
Serve with the sprouts and lemon wedges. | 2019-04-19T14:47:09Z | https://best-alzheimers-products.com/4115.html |

What is the 1-to-1 Technology Program?
On Dec. 8, 2014, the Spring Hill Board of Education approved the purchase of MacBook Air laptops for all students in grades 6-12 (Spring Hill Middle and High School students). The purchase was made after months of planning and based on recommendations from committees at the schools and a parent-patron group. The first Macs were rolled out in early 2015.
What are the benefits of this program to learning?
The initiative supports the district’s Mission Statement, “to engage students to learn, create, adapt and succeed.” By providing 1-to-1 technology, students will have an important tool that supports the learning and discovery process and helps ensure their ultimate success. Students who have attended schools with a 1-to-1 computer plan have been more successful, more engaged, less discipline issues and better attendance than students who did not have a 1-to-1 initiative.
The school district has an annual technology budget designed to maintain and replenish current technology. Student 1-to-1 will create a slight increase in that refresh cost, and the district plans to allocate annual funds to ensure the sustainability of these devices. There also will be savings realized in other areas due to the implementation of this program (e.g., computer labs). In addition, the machines have trade-in value at the end of four years, which will be applied toward future purchases. This initial purchase was completely paid by utilizing savings from the 2011 bond issue.
May students and families opt-out of utilizing the 1-to-1 technology?
A family may opt-out of receiving a MacBook for student’s use at home. However, many assignments will require a computer to complete. All students will use a computer at school even if they do not take it home.
What is the fee associated with using a MacBook Air?
The annual damage and maintenance fee of $20 helps finance a joint damage/loss program in which the student is insured against damage or loss of the device (see below). This usage fee does not replace the annual instructional materials fee. In addition, students who qualify for Nutrition Benefits, according to USDA guidelines, will have the fee waived. Note that computers will not be available for purchase by students/families at the completion of high school. See Loan Agreement.
How is damage of computers handled?
The procedure for repairing or replacing devices is outlined in the Damage/Loss Policy. Each school will have a location where students may bring devices that need to be repaired. The first major damage or loss is paid jointly by the district at 80% of the cost and 20% by the student. Further details are included in the Damage/Loss Policy. Students will be checked out a “loaner” device, if necessary, until their device is repaired and returned to the student.
What will be the process for disbursing and collecting devices?
Parents with 6th grade students and also any students new to the district are asked to attend a parent orientation meeting or review the 1-to-1 presentation posted on the Resources page. In addition, all forms must be completed in advance of distribution. Students will also have large and small group meetings in which expectations are reviewed and devices are distributed. Distribution will be managed at the schools. Devices will be collected and checked in, similar to textbook check-in, at the end of the year to allow the Technology Department to update and repair the devices, as necessary.
What policies and procedures are necessary to ensure student safety and security?
First and foremost, student education is critical for ensuring student safety and security. Common Sense Media is a digital literacy and citizenship curriculum that is used in district classrooms to educate students regarding safe Internet practices. That combined with detailed guidance in the district Acceptable Use Policy and building conduct codes provides clear direction to help ensure safety. Finally, content filtering (iBoss), device management (JAMF), data encryption, and firewall security provide the boundaries that limit breaches in safety and security.
What filter is in place at school to ensure appropriate access to Internet resources?
The district’s current Internet filtering system (iBoss) is designed to provide appropriate access to resources while using the district network. Education will be provided to help parents procure resources and develop practices to help ensure the safety of their students on home networks (see below).
What data management is necessary to ensure that student data, records and privacy are protected?
The district’s current data policies and procedures, including data encryption and firewall, are sufficient to ensure that student data on the district network are secure. Education will be provided to students and parents, including practices that ensure they protect data that they may choose to place on their device. The district’s technology management program also provides the ability to “wipe” devices at any time if the device is lost or stolen. Procedures for requesting district intervention on the personal device will be distributed to students and parents.
Are there resources for families related to Internet safety and parental controls?
Families will be provided a list of web site resources to help parents and guardians make safety choices that fit their families. There are many helpful tools to manage student use of devices and browsing at home, which will be provided to families prior to deployment. In addition, off-site filtering is available upon request. Please contact your school to request a form. | 2019-04-22T04:18:32Z | https://usd230.org/parents___students/1_1_technology/frequently_asked_questions |

The City of Ripon recently completed work on the intersection of West Milgeo Avenue and North Acacia Avenue.
Additional stop signs changed this intersection located east of Highway 99 from a two-way stop to a four-way stop.
Along with the additional stop signs, the city added thermoplastic striping for limited lines and crosswalks.
According to the Ripon Police Department, this intersection was deemed hazardous due to the increased amount of traffic collisions during the past two years.
In order to make changes, police indicated that the California Vehicle Code, in conforming with the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, required the monitoring of this area for vehicle volumes, pedestrian volumes and vehicle / pedestrian conflicts.
“Stop signs should be used for speed control,” said the MUTCD, which also needed vehicle accident data in the evaluation – that’s a total of 12 accidents since 2015 in a highly used route by school children, according to the report.
Due to the number of complaints, police, in partnership with the engineering department, kept a watchful eye on this intersection as well.
“It should be noted that the No. 1 cause of collisions at the intersection (was that) drivers stopped at the stop signs at North Acacia Avenue, pulling out in front of approaching vehicles traveling either east or west on West Milgeo Avenue, believing that those vehicles should also stop at the intersection,” police said.
Work began on converting the intersection into a four-way stop with the appropriate roadway markings and crosswalks officially kicked off in December. | 2019-04-22T16:19:50Z | https://www.mantecabulletin.com/news/local-news/4-way-stop-signs-now-place-milgeo-acacia/ |

An inexpensive nickel(II) catalyst and a hydrosilane were used for the efficient reductive defunctionalization of aryl and heteroaryl esters through a decarbonylative pathway. This versatile method could be used for the removal of ester and amide functional groups from various organic molecules. Moreover, a scale-up experiment and a synthetic application based on the use of a removable carboxylic acid directing group highlight the usefulness of this reaction.

Get ready to do a little more math at the end of your meal. Starting tonight, Silver Lake’s Alimento will institute a separate line on all checks for kitchen gratuity—the first of its kind in the nation, as far as we can tell.
“At Alimento, we believe a great meal comes together not from the effort of any single person, but from the successful cooperation of a team of people, from servers and hosts, to cooks and bussers. Nevertheless, traditional tipping has created a very sizeable gap between the earnings of cooks and servers, and current State law prohibits restaurants from sharing servers’ tips with kitchen staff.
“Rather than imposing a mandatory ‘service fee’ or ‘kitchen surcharge’ as many are doing, we’d like to leave the choice in your, the diner’s, hands. If you’re perfectly happy with tipping as usual, there’s no need for you to do anything differently. But, if you’d like to send a little love to the lads and ladies hustling in the back, we’d be honored to provide you the means to do so. All such tips will go to line cooks and other kitchen staff; no one in management will participate.
L.A. has many great restaurants, and we’re thrilled you’ve chosen to dine with us today. We will continue to work hard to bring you the best dining experience we possibly can.
We plan to follow up and see what the early reaction is from diners and staff. For now, we’re just glad our phones come with calculators. | 2019-04-26T12:51:05Z | https://www.lamag.com/digestblog/alimento-add-line-kitchen-gratuity-checks/ |

On 6/27/18, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its decision in Janus v. AFSCME. The barrage of commentary which has followed may render it difficult for the many police officer associations affected by this decision to discern what is important. Therefore, I am providing the following question-and-answer series to provide guidance to these associations regarding the significance of the Janus decision.
QUESTION #1: Does this decision change existing law?
ANSWER: Yes. By this decision, the Supreme Court has overruled the precedential law established by Abood v. Detroit Bd. of Education 431 U.S. 209 (1977). In Abood, the Supreme Court approved the mandatory/involuntary collection of agency shop/fair share fees.
QUESTION #2: Does this decision eliminate public sector employee unions?
ANSWER: No. The decision prohibits public sector unions from compelling the involuntary or non-consensual payment of agency shop fees from non-members.
QUESTION #3: Does this decision eliminate agency shop provisions in public sector collective bargaining agreements?
ANSWER: To the extent that such provisions allow the employer, at the behest of the union, to collect agency fees from non-members, those provisions are no longer deemed constitutional.
QUESTION #4: If my Association does not exist as a closed agency shop, does this decision require me or the Association to do anything different from what we have been doing?
QUESTION #5: How do I know if I work in a closed agency shop?
ANSWER: It will be in your collective bargaining agreement (labor contract) with your City, County or District. Currently, most Associations are not agency shops (with the exception of SDPOA, SDCPOA and DSA, which are represented by Fern Steiner).
QUESTION #6: From this date forward, will my Association now be required to get signed permission on an ongoing basis to collect Association dues?
ANSWER: No, not from members.
QUESTION #7: Can non-members agree to voluntarily pay an agency fee?
ANSWER: Yes. However, any non-members who waive their constitutional rights so an agency fee can be collected from them must sign a written waiver granting consent to the Association to collect the fee, and such waivers should be obtained on the same cycle that would have applied to distribution of Hudson letters.
QUESTION #8: For Associations which had agency shop status, is there a requirement that the Association refund any and all agency fees which have been collected for the duration of an employee’s employment?
ANSWER: No. Prior to the Janus decision, collection of agency fees was deemed constitutional by the precedent established by the Abood decision. Pro rata refunding to fee payers for the period since the date of the Janus decision would be appropriate.
QUESTION #9: My Association had been thinking of negotiating for agency shop status — is that now prohibited?
ANSWER: No. However, you will not be able to compel the involuntary payment of an agency fee from those employees who choose not to join the Association.
QUESTION #10: Under the duty of fair representation, does my Association still have the duty to bargain for non-members, even if the non-members don’t pay their fair share?
ANSWER: Yes, unless and until State law changes.
Keep in mind that our brothers and sisters in law enforcement recognize the tremendous benefits of Association membership in such areas as public safety legislative influence through PORAC, supplemental insurance, retiree medical trusts, criminal defense and administrative legal defense. These benefits are only available to Association members.
It is for this reason that most of your Associations enjoy 100% (or nearly 100%) voluntary membership. The Janus decision does not change this. It only applies to Associations which are agency shops, and within those groups, the decision benefits only those employees who are non-members.
Legislative changes at both the federal and state levels are anticipated to adjust to the paradigm shift introduced by this decision. For now, we will all simply need to watch and, when appropriate, weigh in on any legislative proposals. | 2019-04-26T06:47:19Z | http://law1199.com/index.php/2018/10/09/recent-supreme-court-decision-in-janus-v-afscme-raises-questions-for-associations/ |
Bid4Spots has unveiled a new online marketplace for cable television advertising � becoming the first to organize cable advertising nationwide down to the neighborhood, bringing advertisers and cable systems together in a way that makes the process of buying and selling cable TV ads more convenient and cost-effective for both parties.
Offering premium local cable TV airtime at discounted rates for the following broadcast week, Bid4Spots gives both sides relief in this sluggish economy � great rates for advertisers, a much-needed new revenue stream for local cable operators, and a flexible approach to buying and selling with no hassles or long-term commitments. Bid4Spots created this new marketplace in response to advertiser demand, adapting the reverse auction model that has successfully transformed the way last-minute radio airtime is bought and sold.
Bid4Spots will host an online reverse auction every Thursday, in which advertisers will make known their intention to buy airtime within certain parameters for the following week, and the relevant cable systems compete for that business � bidding against each other to drive the rates down. The first auction will be June 11; advertisers and cable systems can sign up for the marketplace now at www.Bid4Spots.com.
�Buying and selling advertising, no matter the medium, is all about reaching the right audience,� said Dave Newmark, Bid4Spots founder and CEO. The company�s online marketplace for radio airtime, launched in 2005, roughly doubled in size last year � even as both the radio and the advertising industries struggled.
Bid4Spots has organized the most comprehensive registry of the nation�s local cable TV systems � creating a database that will match an advertiser�s stated target audience with all the local cable systems that provide that particular audience reach.
For cable operators, Bid4Spots offers an efficient, risk-free way to sell available airtime. Industry sources estimate that roughly 10 percent to 25 percent of local cable TV airtime typically remains unsold. Local cable accounts for 10 percent of all cable advertising. Based on 2007 numbers, local cable ads totaled about $2.63 billion. If 10 percent to 25 percent remained unsold, that�s an aggregate total of $263 million to $657 million in lost revenue due to unsold inventory. | 2019-04-22T04:56:20Z | http://barternews.com/bid4spots_launches_cable_tv_advertising_marketplace.htm |

Zika Update in Arizona – Making Arizona The Healthiest State In The Nation!
The Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) now says there have been 10 confirmed cases of the Zika virus in our state. According to KJZZ Radio in Phoenix, that is up from 7 confirmed cases just a week ago.
All of the patients acquired the virus by traveling to Zika-infected areas. Branch Chief for Public Health Preparedness at the Arizona Department of Health Services Jessica Rigler said if you’re visiting Central or South America, it’s important to protect yourself from mosquito bites.
An elderly Utah man who died after contracting Zika from travel abroad may have spread the virus to a family contact who did not leave the country, raising troubling questions about a possible new route of transmission of the mosquito-borne virus, state and federal officials said Monday.
Officials said they are investigating how the second person became infected. One possibility is close contact between the critically ill patient and the caregiver, who has since recovered.
No cases of mosquito-spread Zika have been reported in the continental United States.
Most experts believe the risk of Zika is minimal for those who are not traveling to Central American countries.Still, since Arizona is home to the mosquito that carries the virus, the Pima County Health Department listed a number of ways to limit the exposure to mosquito bites on its website.
Dress to protect. Wear loose-fitting, light colored long sleeve shirts and pants.
Check your yard. Remove objects that collect water and dump any standing water. Change water for pets or plants daily and wipe out the container with a cloth.
Use mosquito repellent. Use sprays or lotions with DEET or other ingredients proven to keep mosquitos away.
Protect yourself when traveling. Use mosquito repellent and clothes that will prevent mosquito bites while you travel. Speak to your healthcare provider if you feel ill upon return.
We will continue to update you on any new Zika virus information throughout our prime mosquito season. Staying on top of the important health issues in our state is another way we are working to help make Arizona the Healthiest State in the Nation!

In this series, we’ve compared the response to global warming by the Chinese and U.S. governments.
With roughly one-fifth of the world’s people living in China and its rapid industrialization in recent decades, both particulate air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions have become big problems. However, China, so woefully underdeveloped before its socialist revolution, is now far ahead of the U.S. in developing and carrying out long-range, comprehensive economic plans to shift its economy to other energy sources.
Here we will look at what is happening to coal miners in both China and the U.S.
Of the widely used fossil fuels — coal, oil and natural gas — coal is the largest producer of carbon dioxide emissions. China has little oil and gas but a great deal of coal. Its air pollution problem has come largely from burning coal to make steel and generate electric power.
Arriving in Shanghai some 25 years ago, this writer was hit with a wave of nostalgia. It took a few minutes to figure out why. It was the smell of coal smoke, which had hung in the air all winter in the industrial city of Buffalo, N.Y., where I grew up.
China is still a developing country. But it has been building the infrastructure necessary to reduce consumption of fossil fuels while improving energy efficiency. This is not a wish list that could be shot down by future politicians, but part of a detailed plan for the country’s development. Even with economic growth, its carbon footprint will peak somewhere between 2025 and 2030, as early as nine years from now. Its per capita CO2 emissions have always been much smaller than those in the U.S., and will go even lower.
China is the world’s largest producer of steel and coal. But it is also the largest producer of solar and wind energy technology, and has forged ahead in hydroelectric and nuclear power. It has been shutting down thousands of coal mines, with plans to close many more.
What will happen to coal miners?
Coal mining is difficult and dangerous work. Chinese coal miners used to have the largest casualty rate in the world, with thousands dying in mine accidents every year. However, fatalities have been greatly reduced in recent years with enhanced safety measures, and will decline further as older mines are closed. The pace of shutting mines has also been accelerated by the slowdown in the capitalist world economy and a global glut in many commodities.
Miners everywhere have been a militant, close-knit section of the working class. The coal miners’ union in the U.S. was once the most feared by the bosses. China’s miners are no exception.
A plan to cut emissions for the health of the people and the future of the planet has to deal with what happens to the workers in these areas of the economy. In China’s case, measures are being taken. The government is setting aside billions of dollars to relocate laid-off miners and their families.
What’s important here, from our point of view, is that China is committing very large sums to relocate the affected workers.
No one should think this plan to relocate miners into other jobs will happen automatically. A constant tug of war goes on in China between the growing capitalist class and the state, which arose out of China’s great revolution made by the workers and peasants. Even in state-owned enterprises, officials can behave like bosses, as appears the case with the huge coal company Longmay, the product of a consolidation of many smaller state-owned mining companies.
Thousands of miners at Longmay’s Shuangyashan Mine in northern China have been staging militant protests because company officials owed them months of back wages. With layoffs looming, the miners were very apprehensive that the promises made them might not materialize.
Chinese workers have a very militant tradition, and will fight for their rights. When private owners are involved, as is the case with half of China’s coal production, the workers have all the more reason to struggle. The miners’ struggle is an important test of how much the government will let enemies of the workers in China, whether corporate owners or corrupt officials, get away with.
Meanwhile, what is happening to coal miners in the United States?
The first thing to note is that capitalist economic stagnation and mechanization have already eliminated many miners’ jobs here. The job losses don’t come from any strenuous environmental measures taken by Washington.
By 2013, the number of coal miners in the U.S. had dropped to about 80,000 from nearly 230,000 in 1980. With technological advances, each miner now produces almost three and a half times as much coal, while total production remains about the same.
Most mining in the U.S. has shifted from the Appalachians to Wyoming and Montana, where instead of digging underground, it is done through “mountaintop removal” and other surface extraction. In 2013, the coal extracted per worker in Wyoming, where virtually all production is surface mining, was 10 times that in West Virginia, where most mining is underground.
As more corporations globalized in search of higher profits, manufacturing in the U.S. declined along with the demand for coal. Companies like Peabody, which used to be big in Appalachia, have moved most of their operations overseas. Peabody Energy Australia, for example, sold 38.2 million tons of coal in 2014, while Peabody in the U.S. is said to be near bankruptcy.
The four largest U.S. miners by output — Peabody Energy, Arch Coal, Cloud Peak Energy and Alpha Natural Resources — which account for nearly half of U.S. production, were worth a combined $34 billion at their peak in 2011. Today they are worth only $150 million. Dozens of U.S. mining companies have declared bankruptcy in recent years.
“At issue were the jobs, benefits and pensions of miners who had been working for Walter Energy Inc., which was undergoing bankruptcy. In December, the company persuaded a bankruptcy judge to let it renege on its promises to workers, jettisoning its pension and health care commitments to make itself more attractive to buyers.
Workers in the United States are being whipsawed by these conditions and right-wing politicians like Donald Trump are trying to capitalize on that.
While these job losses have nothing to do with environmental protection, we must be sure that our demands for cleaning up the planet include concrete measures to create jobs for all who need them. If China can put aside billions of dollars to do that, why can’t the billionaire-run U.S.? | 2019-04-24T05:59:50Z | https://www.workers.org/2016/03/21/china-the-u-s-and-global-warming-part-3/ |

As a yoga practitioner, I’ve experienced some pain, discomfort in my sacroiliac (SI) joints at times. Having a scoliosis (uneven spine and pelvis), I’m at greater risk to feel some sensitivity around this joint.
The SI joints have some mobility, a little give, but they are mainly joints of STABILITY.
For those of you who don’t have any anatomical knowledge, please stay with me, here are some more information.
A joint is where two bones meet. We have two SI joints: one on the right where the ilium (latin name for one side of the pelvis) and the sacrum meet and one one the left.
Around every joint, there are some ligaments. We can stretch them a little during our asana practice but if we overstretch them, they don’t go back to their regular length and the joints are becoming hypermobile. Think of a gum being stretched, once lengthened it won’t return to its original length.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying that stretching is bad, I’m saying: it MUST be combined with STABILIZATION.
85% of women suffered or are suffering from SI pain compare to 15% of men. How unfair!
Here are some reasons. First, a woman’s pelvis is wider than a man’s so there is more torquing action happening just by its nature, the joint is also shallower in a woman’s pelvis hence less stable and finally, (as if it wasn’t enough!) the ligaments around the joints respond to the hormones changes (periods, pregnancy, menopause…).
If you are or have been pregnant, you most likely know what I’m talking about.
For a pain free SI joints, the well known yoga instructor, Judith Hanson Lasater, who is also a physical therapist, has a strong opinion on the subject: ALWAYS MOVE YOUR PELVIS AND YOUR SACRUM TOGETHER especially in twists and forward bends.
In other words, she encourages to let the pelvis turn with the spine in a twisting asana instead of keeping it leveled.
It does makes sense to me and my body for it creates the stability my SI joints are lacking. That being said, it may not work for you. I’d be happy to read your comments and feedback.
At the end of the day, I do believe an asana practice is an extremely personal and individual one depending on our structure, musculature, gender, age… What works for me may not work for you and vice versa.
Next time we are on our mat, let’s deeply tune in and listen to the signals our body is sending.
Yoga is the art of paying attention. | 2019-04-21T02:36:13Z | http://celineantoineyoga.com/en/2014/07/food-for-thought-the-sacroiliac-joint/ |

A few weeks ago I started folding origami hearts for Valentine's Day with no real purpose in mind, figuring that once I folded enough a plan for what to do with them would show up. In a way I suppose this was a devotional act--I was making them to transform some moment for one person somehow--but mostly I was just folding. If we try a little most of our motions are devotional anyway. It's one of the best parts of getting to be people.
My friend passed away this weekend, and I am feeling a familiar jumble of things. It is sad that she is gone at the same time that it is a relief that she is free of so much pain. It is sad that she has left behind a family and would have been sadder if she hadn't. She died a month before her party, and this is perhaps the thing that is sticking with me the most--how often she asked everyone to dance with her, how completely she defied her disease and all that it tried to take from her. I've been thinking about a lunch, just before we knew for sure that she was sick, sitting on some steps in the sun. She was on a cleanse, eating nothing with flavor, but all she wanted to talk about was things that would make us laugh.
She's been on my mind a lot the last few months and I though about her now and again while I was making all of those hearts. It was a gesture she would have approved of, going forward with more love than plan. It is just one more way of thinking that we had in common. | 2019-04-24T10:51:15Z | http://gingerlee.blogspot.com/2014/02/ |

GOLD, San Francisco Chronicle, Calaveras County Fair & Orange County Fair.
This is the oldest vineyard in Calaveras county, at almost 120 years old. No relation to the chocolate family, 5 generations of the Ghirardellis have owned and tended this vineyard. A great Zin that is layered with complexities, this wine can be sipped alone or paired with many meals. It's fruit forward with lots of berry and nice soft tannins. The 2013 vintage is tasting great right now, but also has the right stuff to age beautifully over the next 5-10 years.
Excellent wine which we had tonight. - this is the way a good wine tastes. | 2019-04-25T05:47:43Z | https://www.milliairewinery.com/product/2013-Ghirardelli-Heritage-Old-Vine-Zinfandel |

PITTSBURGH (AP) Pittsburgh Penguins goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury is undergoing the NHL's concussion protocol and is out indefinitely.
Coach Mike Sullivan said Fleury approached the staff following Monday night's 4-1 loss to Washington and said he did not feel right. Fleury will not be with the team on Wednesday night when the Penguins play at Boston. Fleury has been one of the few bright spots during Pittsburgh's sluggish start. Fleury is 13-10-2 with a 2.29 goals against average. His .926 save percentage is 10th best in the NHL. Jeff Zatkoff will start against the Bruins.
Pittsburgh will also be without forward Beau Bennett for 4-6 weeks after Bennett suffered an upper body injury when he was hit into the boards by Washington's T.J. Oshie on Monday night. | 2019-04-25T16:14:18Z | https://www.si.com/nhl/2015/12/15/ap-hkn-penguins-injuries |
Through one of those cosmic but meaningless coincidences, I’ve recently come across a cluster of articles on various subjects which all have the same thing in common: they all assume an inevitable and continuing state of progress. The present is automatically better than the past. And, even more strangely, they assume that we are now necessarily better people than everyone who lived before: more sensible, less innocent; more understanding of “issues”.
It’s an oddly quaint and old-fashioned idea, this obsession with necessary progress. It was very popular in the eighteenth century, when life was often seen as a series of steady steps on the road to perfection. Everything was capable of perfection: the human mind; a building; a work of art, a teapot. That time passed, and so will ours.
In the meantime, I think this ”progress” idea is part of a larger problem: a disregard of history. And by “history” in this context, I mean anything that happened more than a few months ago. Don’t misunderstand me. I’m not yearning for a mythical golden age when everything was much better; just a little informed perspective. An attention-span a little longer than that of the (probably maligned) goldfish.
Why do I call it a problem? I think it’s a problem because if you don’t understand how you got here, how do you understand where you are? How can you understand the mess the world is in unless you know something about what went before? You can look around, absolutely. But you won’t understand what you’re looking at.
What does all this have to do with writing? Well, we are nothing without our memories. Memories are the stories we tell ourselves to make sense of our lives. They’re the basis and the substance of who we are. And “history” is just collective memory; the stories that make sense of the past. Without these communal memories, we don’t exist as a society; exactly as without our personal memories we don’t exist as people. But lists of dates and events are indigestible and make our brains scramble and fog. We all have a need for some kind of order, even in chaos. We look for patterns. We look for stories. And writers are the tellers of stories that help us understand where we are, and how we got here.
The stories don’t have to be “true” in that they don’t have to be restricted to verifiable facts. But they have to be true in the sense that they tell us more about a world we recognise and about parts of ourselves we feel to be true. Fiction can sometimes give you more understanding than facts because it involves emotions, and that’s where memory really lies. | 2019-04-20T17:06:55Z | https://storymachine.co.uk/blog/4 |
