This is part of the 'Trail of coins' which went at least twice around the corridor and the library for Children in Need.
Y2 children enjoying an aerobic 'Wake and Shake'.
This is Mr Cuddles and the Debenham HS Sports Leaders leading lots of Year 2 children from the pyramid schools in a conga finale to the 'Wake and Shake ' festival held on Wednesday 19th November.
On Tuesday 25th November 9 children from Yr 5/6 took part in the Small Schools Unihoc tournament at Debenham Leisure Centre. They played extremely well during the morning, and finished in a very creditable joint 3rd place, only losing to the eventual winners - Helmingham. Our results were: Won -1 Drew - 3 Lost -1 Black eyes - 1 !
18 children from Earl Soham visited TMHS for a fantastic day of ICT, Science, Design Technology and Literacy. The children had great fun designing and making a rocket to send out a signal to ensure that their coach arrived to pick them up! They also looked at how to measure the altitude that their inventions reached.
The TMHS staff were excellent and this was matched by the interest shown by the children and their results - the bus arrived on time!
While Year 5 and 6 pupils were at Thomas Mills High School today, Mr Mansell worked with a group of Year 4 pupils to produce this short film about the Chinese folk-tale, Li Chi Slays the Serpent.
The children began by recording themselves reading the story. They then produced some artwork depicting different scenes in the story.
In the afternoon, we used plasticine to make models of the characters in the story and animated them using stop-frame animation techniques.
The children then put everything together using Windows Movie Maker to produce this short film.
The One Christmas concerts are fast approaching and I'm pleased to say that the CD is now available to purchase. Copies are available from the school office at a cost of £10. All proceeds (after manufacturing costs) go to the charity Tearfund.
Mr Pearce was very excited to see the CD arrive and couldn't wait to put it on and have a dance!
Thanks to everyone who brought in some coppers for our coin trail. We have raised nearly £53 for Children in Need.
Welcome to the first post on our new school blog. We hope that you find this a useful area to find out what has been happening around the school.
This first post is all about the dotty goings on on Children in Need day. Children arrived at school in all manner of spotty outfits (and some of the staff looked a bit odd too!). One child even went to the great effort of getting into character as a dalmation, with a full fancy dress costume.
Children brought in copper coins and we made a trail which went twice around the school corridor!
When some boys from Blue class collected all the money in a bucket at the end of the day they could hardly lift it. We would like to thank everyone who made an effort to dress up and brought in a contribution. We will let you know soon, after poor Mrs Sayer has counted all of those coins, what the grand total came to. | 2019-04-21T00:50:22Z | http://blog.earlsoham.suffolk.sch.uk/2008/11/ |
DMI performing at Joshua Tree Music Festival Oct. 2018.
The Desert Music Institute is a youth music program based on the premise that if the music is relevant to the aspiring musician, they can learn faster and stick with it longer than with traditional music education models.
Our mission is to spark a passion in kids and teens who want to play music in a band-like setting, and teach them the skills it takes to make music with others.
We teach our students how to adapt songs to bring out the best of who is playing with them at that moment. We show them how to improvise, so they can channel their creativity with increasing dexterity as their skill set grows.
We don’t play too loud! Too many musicians have hearing loss from playing with musicians who turn their amps up way too loud! Kids have great hearing. We aim to keep it that way!
This youth music program meets at the Beatnik in Joshua Tree every Thursday at 3:30. Keyboards, guitar, bass, drums, ukuleles, violins, and vocalists are all involved. Ages 7-17 Currently there are 16 youth musicians and 3 instructors. Instructor Erik Kramer Webb is a local musician and business owner who started the group and has carried it for a few years on all volunteer bases. Bryanna Evaro and Michael Reyes of Desert Rhythm Project are instuctors who invited the group to perform with them a few times.
The growing attendance, popularity, and community benefits of this group has called for something more and properly funded to develop it into an ongoing program. Donations will go towards equipment such as PA, mics and various instruments, as well as a rental space that can host the group on, at least, a weekly basis. JTLA is proud to sponsor this program and all donations are tax deductible.

Please donate today to support more music for local youth!!

The AMD A12-9720P is a mainstream SoC from the Bristol-Ridge APU series for notebooks (7th APU generation), which was introduced in 2017. The ULV chip with a TDP of 15 Watts (can be configured to 12 Watts, not verified) has four CPU cores (two Excavator modules) clocked at 2.7 - 3.6 GHz (short time 4.05 for single core in our test sample), a Radeon R7 GPU as well as a dual-channel DDR4-1866 memory controller. Carrizo is a full-fledged SoC and is also equipped with an integrated chipset, which provides all I/0 ports.
The performance of the A12-9720P should be slightly faster than the A12-9700P (slower clocks). Compared to Intel CPUs, the CPU is most comparable to Skylake Core i3 CPUs. Our first test sample however performt a bit worse than an average A12-9700P and on par with a i3-5010U (multi-core) and i3-4010U (single-core). Due to the TDP limitation, the performance of the A12-9720P will drop significantly under sustained workloads.
AMD specifies the TDP of the A12-9720P with 15 Watts (not verified), which is comparable to Intel's ULV models. This means the CPU is a good choice for thin notebooks starting with a 12-inch screen. | 2019-04-22T10:47:57Z | https://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-A12-9720P-SoC-Benchmarks-and-Specs.234448.0.html |
THE IRON LADY—-yet another feather in the brightly stuffed bonnet of Meryl Streep, this 2011 biographical pass at the life (and dubious achievements) of Margaret Thatcher earned The World’s Foremost Thespian her 17th Oscar nomination and third win. The effective Makeup also copped one of the little gold guys, in a certainly interesting drama, directed by Phyllida Lloyd, co-starring Jim Broadbent as Mag’s husband.
Critically, while plaudits went to Streep’s uncanny impersonation, both friends and enemies of the demented old bat fierce, unyielding political legend were unhappy with what was suggested and what was left out. No fan of Thatcher (she can rot), I watched with gritted teeth, but credit marvelous Meryl with outstanding work.

"a feeling, a yearning for a lost time and place".
Many of my art prints produce this feeling as viewers recall days when they were younger and admired a now classic car or remembered the lonesome sound of a train whistle as it passed through their town. Memories are a great way to relive our pasts and visit our old friends and family, some who are no longer available to visit with. My desire is to bring back good memories of days now gone for those who view my art.

Guess Who Fooled The Nokia9 PureView – A Pack Of Chewing Gum!
We are all aware that smartphone security options such as fingerprint scanners and facial recognition aren’t 100% secure. This has been proved further with the case of the Nokia 9 PureView, which appears to have been unlocked by a pack of chewing gum.
As per a couple of tweets, the Nokia 9 PureView is reportedly getting unlocked via unidentified fingerprints of another user and a pack of chewing gum.
One thing to be noticed from the picture above is that the password is hidden. When users write anything at that time, nothing will be displayed on the screen, not even asterisks. They’ll have to trust that there’s something written in the terminal and just write their passwords and hit Enter.
Historically, this is done for both ease of implementation and security reasons. It makes it difficult for people standing near your shoulder from knowing your password length. If they don’t know your password length, it would be harder for them to guess it. They can, of course, listen to the keystrokes you are hitting and try to guess how many characters did you hit? But that’s more difficult than just looking at the screen and counting the number of asterisks there.
Also, when they see that your password is too long, they might not even try to use your computer and guess your password. But if your password is less than few characters, it will give them hope.
If you are a Linux users and struggling to get a proper password manager then this post is for you. In this post, We have listed the best (at least for us) Linux password managers for you.
Netflix took the video streaming industry by storm when it debuted Black Mirror: Bandersnatch last year. The “choose your own adventure” themed movie puts viewers in charge of the story and flow of the movie. The success of Bandersnatch even led to the creation of a second interactive show ‘You vs. Wild’ featuring Bear Grylls.

Former NBA superstar Michael Jordan is part of a group that has agreed to purchase the Charlotte Bobcats.
(CNN) -- Retired basketball icon Michael Jordan bought a majority share of the NBA's Charlotte Bobcats, officials said Saturday.
Jordan, who was already a minority owner of the team, headed a group that bought a majority share of the team from businessman Robert Johnson, Johnson said in a statement.
Johnson said he has signed a "definitive agreement" to sell majority interest of Bobcats Sports and Entertainment to Michael Jordan and MJ Basketball Holdings, LLC. The deal is subject to NBA approval. Details on the purchase price were not available.
Jordan has overseen the team's basketball operations in recent years. He won six NBA titles with the Chicago Bulls.
Johnson, who founded BET and sold it to Viacom for $3 billion in 2001, announced that he had been looking for someone to buy earlier this year.
His fortune was depleted by an expensive divorce, but in a 2009 interview with CNN, Johnson estimated his net worth was still $1.1 billion.
Johnson's resume is full of firsts: BET was the first African-American owned company traded on the NYSE. He was the first African-American billionaire in the United States. And, in 2002, he became the first African-American majority owner of a professional sports franchise. | 2019-04-20T16:17:48Z | http://www.cnn.com/2010/SPORT/02/27/michael.jordan.bobcats/index.html |

Barack and Michelle Obama are back and they are reminding us of just how delightful they are. They’ve hired Indian-origin entertainment executive Priya Swaminathan as their first big hire for their Netflix deal.
Swaminathan will work hand in hand with the former White House residents to develop new Hollywood projects for the streaming giant.
The deal between the Obamas and Netflix was announced earlier this year and has caused a lot of buzz about the upcoming project. Hiring Swaminathan, an Indian-origin social activist and filmmaker, proves their intent to create unique and diverse stories.
Swaminathan was the former director of development at Annapurna Pictures. Her credits include producing documentaries like “The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia” and “Very Young Girls.” The latter focused on teenage prostitution in New York City and aired on Showtime.
Swaminathan also worked as an industry advisor for the Sundance Institute’s FilmTwo Initiative, which aimed to propel minority filmmakers ahead in the business. She’s a social activist who has worked closely with the #TimesUp and Me Too movement, as well.
As a leader in this industry, Swaminathan has worked to promote original, diverse content. Based on her experience and credits, we are assuming she is bringing this to Netflix with her recent deal, and will help develop stories that push social boundaries. | 2019-04-24T00:06:50Z | https://www.thetealmango.com/entertainment/entertainment-executive-priya-swaminathan-partners-with-the-obamas-on-their-netflix-deal/ |

If you want to get even closer to your subject than with your binoculars, then a Spotting Scope comes into view. This is a monocular with a very strong magnification. You look through it with one eye.
Thanks to the high magnification you can view every single feather of the tiniest bird and the speck in the air turns out to be that unique place that you've always wanted to see . In many cases, the magnification ratio of a scope can be set between 20 and 40 x. That means a magnification which is around five times higher than that of common binoculars. The large front lens provides a clear picture and a large exit pupil. Both of these things make a Spotting Scope very nice to use.
You will usually use a Spotting Scope out in the great outdoors. This of course involves the risk of getting surprised by the rain. Our Spotting Scopes have absolutely no problem with that. | 2019-04-24T07:06:02Z | https://www.knivesandtools.co.uk/en/ct/spotting-scopes.htm |

LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Gov. Rick Snyder on Friday signed laws to significantly scale back citizen-initiated measures to raise Michigan’s minimum wage and require paid sick leave for workers, finalizing an unprecedented Republican-backed legislative maneuver that opponents blasted as shameful.
The tactic — never done until now — was pushed by the business community as necessary to avoid jeopardizing the economy. But it was criticized as an unconstitutional attack on voters’ will at a time Republicans in Michigan are trying to dilute the powers of incoming elected Democrats.
Michigan’s Snyder signed the bills in private and issued a statement calling them a “good balance” between what the ballot drives proposed and what legislators drafted initially as replacements.
“They address a number of difficulties for job providers while still ensuring paid medical leave benefits and increased minimum-wage incomes for many Michiganders,” he said, saying he did not want to put at risk the state’s economic turnaround.
One law slows down a boost in Michigan’s $9.25 minimum wage, so it will gradually rise to $12.05 by 2030 instead of $12 by 2022 as mandated by the citizen-proposed measure. It repeals an existing provision that ties future increases to inflation, and it reverses a provision that would have brought a lower wage for tipped employees in line with the wage for other workers.
Snyder said the laws he signed offer the majority of workers up to a week off without pay and keep Michigan’s minimum in the top third of states nationally. The initial measures, without changes, “would have taken an economic wrecking ball to Michigan’s overall competitiveness,” said Michigan Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Rich Studley.
Republicans will not be able to use a similar “adopt-and-amend” strategy in 2020 because Democrat Gretchen Whitmer, a supporter of paid sick days and a higher minimum wage, will be governor.
It is uncertain if other GOP-backed legislation — to strip or dilute the authority of incoming elected Democrats and make it harder to organize ballot drives — will reach Snyder’s desk or if the governor, who is more politically moderate than Walker, would sign any of those measures. They have passed either the House or Senate, with one week remaining in the session. | 2019-04-20T04:25:34Z | https://apnews.com/64856ca0e9c7481cb5709929ec2c95c8 |

You know what? Canning in the winter is quite enjoyable. I need to do more of it. Especially when the temperature drops, standing next to three boiling pots on the stove is quite lovely. A nice change from the frigid depths of the living room.
Earlier this year I received a note from Tom of Singer Farm Naturals, who found one of my posts touting the deliciousness of garlic scapes (which, I agree, are underutilized). Tom offered to send me a sampling of his organic garlic varieties (he grows over 20 unique varieties). How could I say no?
When the box came just this past week, I was overwhelmed. Think about it. You buy garlic in little mesh bags in the grocery store. It’s just garlic. Plain old, generic garlic. It’s not like apples, there are no options… garlic is garlic. Or so I thought.
Anyone have a breath mint?
Smoked Gouda and garlic jam.
It was a comment left on the Kerry Gold giveaway post by Michelle, describing her ultimate grilled cheese. I saw the words “garlic jam” and I knew I had it. Thanks, Michelle, for the inspiration I needed!
While I couldn’t find any recipes for garlic jam, recipes for garlic jelly were all over, including in my canning bible, which had a recipe for Roasted Garlic Jelly that I ended up using. I made two batches, one featuring the Lorz Italian variety of garlic, and the other featuring Persian Star. Both delicious, both garlicky and wonderfully rich, and oh so slightly different. While I think the varieties are best distinguished in their raw forms, (garlic tasting party, anyone?), this jelly is a real treat.
Yes, indeed. I think this will make one fine grilled cheese.
Makes 9 4-oz. jars. Recipe from Ball Complete Book of Home Preserving.
Using a sharp knife, cut off tops of garlic heads, exposing cloves. Place each head on a small square of aluminum foil set on a baking sheet. Top each head with 1 teaspoon olive oil and 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar. Scrunch foil loosely around garlic heads and roast in preheated oven until garlic is golden and very soft, 45 to 60 minutes. Let stand until cool enough to handle. Separate cloves, pinching each one to extract the soft roasted garlic. Discard skins.
In a medium stainless steel saucepan, combine roasted garlic, wine, water, white balsamic vinegar and peppercorns. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and boil gently for 5 minutes. Cover, remove from heat and let steep for 15 minutes.
Transfer garlic mixture to a strainer lined with several layers of dampened cheesecloth or a dampened coffee filter set over a deep bowl. Let drip, undisturbed, for about 30 minutes. Measure 1 2/3 cups garlic juice. If you do not have the required amount, add up to 1/4 cup dry white wine or water. (This step can be done up to one day in advance. Cover and refrigerate juice until ready to use).
Meanwhile, prepare canner, jars, and lids.
Transfer garlic juice to a large, deep stainless steel saucepan. Stir in lemon juice and sugar. Over high heat, stirring constantly, bring to a full rolling boil that cannot be stirred down. Stir in pectin. Return to a boil and boil hard, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Remove from heat and quickly skim off foam.
Quickly pour hot jelly into hot jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Wipe rim. Center lid on jar. Screw band down until resistance is met, then increase to fingertip tight.
Place jars in canner, ensuring they are completely covered with water. Bring to a boil and process for 10 minutes. Remove canner lid. Wait 5 minutes, then remove jars, cool, and store.

Spinach with Sesame and Garlic!
my fave recipe is good garlic bread with big chunks of yummy garlic baked into it, then spread with garlic butter. Yummm. Of course, anything with garlic is good in my book!! Now I’m totally going to have to try this garlic jelly, sounds delish!!
I’m also now a fan on Facebook!!
I love roasted garlic cloves with a lttle honey drizzled over on a crostini! Yummm!!!
Anything with garlic as an ingredient.
My favorite use of garlic has been roasted garlic spread like butter on toast. Yum. I Have a feeling that roasted garlic jelly might be my new favorite!
I’m new to this party….. and getting in at the 11th hour. Just found this through a repost from Food in Jars.
Roasted garlic with my baked brie on a french baquette rocks my world. I’m-a-liking-you on FB as well. Thanks for the post…. garlic jelly really never occurred to me in a million years, but would gladly can that!
I love garlic on pasta. I like to make a garlic-brown butter sauce for cheese raviolis. I love garlic mashed potatoes. I just LOVE garlic!
Liked Love & Olive Oil on FB.
Lots of garlic sauteed with rutabegas. Can you tell I’m from Minnesota?
Hummus, loaded with garlic. Yummmm.
Oh I add garlic to everything. I’ll doctor store bought pasta sauce by adding more spices and caramelized onions and garlic, it goes into bruschetta, and in the winter I toast some brown rye bread and rub a peeled piece of garlic right into the sandpapery toast and then eat it with borscht. No danger of vampire attacks in this house.
I LOVE Garlic, minced, chopped, grated, backed, sauted………..I love garlic stuffed olives, but my favorite recipe for garlic has to be salsa! The more garlic the better! Also, garlic cheese toast, cheese, mayo, minced garlic, mix and spread on some French Bread and broil!! YUM!!
I love roasted garlic soup!
I’m also a fan on FB!
I work for Washington State University, which makes an outstanding aged white cheddar at Ferdinand’s Creamery on the main campus in Pullman (http://www.wsu.edu/creamery/). Cougar Gold and this garlic jelly on crackers would be the hit of any party; this would also make a great gift basket.
I’m making some of this as soon as I can get some good local garlic from my farmers’ market (we have one that runs through the winter, fortunately).
Cold cure soup. It calls for two heads of roasted garlic. It works too!
I liked you on facebook! Lovely blog.
My favorite recipe is garlic bread, or garlic shrimp,roasted garlic on a baguette..
You bet I am a fan on FB too!!!!
I love garlic in everything…garlic bread especially. Thanks for this giveaway!
I am fan on FB too!!!
I would have to say Homemade Garlic Bread- with homemade bread of course!!!!
My favorite is a simple summer bruschetta with an unreasonable amount of garlic, garden tomatoes, olive oil & balsamic vinegar, sea salt and basil on crispy baguette.
I like your blog on FB (A Mace).
Following on Twitter, and I tweeted (http://twitter.com/neverdene/status/16720420241670146).
when i really need my garlic fix i like it roasted and spread over crusty french bread. yum!
My fav is a venison roast – sliced deep and stuffed with crushed garlic cloves, then marinated overnight in strong black coffee. Then roast in the oven at 350 for 2 hours! Succulent!
I am a major fb fan! Great blog, thank you!
My favorite garlic recipe is a head of garlic roasted and then mixed with a stick of butter~the cook everything in it!
The Pioneer Woman’s Spaghetti & Meatballs recipe is my favorite recipe with garlic…. but her recipe only uses 6 cloves…. so I up it to 12-14. Hehe. Can’t ever get enough garlic! Yummm.
I love garlic, growing it and eating it. My current favorite is an omelet with spinach, cream cheese and GARLIC!
You have really piqued my interest in different varieties of garlic! I went to Singer Farms’ web site and was quickly (and delightfully) overwhelmed by their choices!
Do they sell a Garlic Sampler? I could not find it on their site.
Thanks for the recipe. I made it yesterday! I love garlic and this is its a great way of using it!
This week I tried garlic jelly for the first time and was truly surprised at how good it was. I would like to make some and wondered if anyone had tried to make it using pineapple juice rather than wine or vinegar as the base.
I’m not sure what’s going on. i made this recipe twice and both times, the liquid never gelled and the flavor is entirely vinegar. no garlic flavor at all. hmmm……..
My favorite is garlic jelly that I made for the first time two days ago. I use it on crackers and toasted bread. I love garlic and garlic and onions are the first things I grab to use.
Is it sweet at all or just garlicy ?? Inquiring minds want to know!?
It is plenty sweet, as you’ve got 3 cups of sugar in there to offset the garlic flavor. It’s very well balanced I think you’ll find! | 2019-04-22T02:13:17Z | https://www.loveandoliveoil.com/2010/12/roasted-garlic-jelly-and-a-giveaway.html |
Executive Producer at Bulkhead Interactive, Joe Brammer recently used social media to share the information regarding his upcoming Unreal Engine 4 powered FPS, Battalion 1944.
Using his Twitter, he assured that the stretch goals will be announced this week and shared with the public shortly.
The stretch goals are worth the wait. We’ve worked long hours and put our talent to work on them. You’ll see soon enough.
Without announcing stretch goals, we added £140,000 to date. Wait and see what happens when we announce stretch goals this week!
And then yesterday, he teased that now is the time make stretch goals public.
7AM start. Let’s wrap up these stretch goals and get them to the public.
Meanwhile, responding a follower regarding the game’s frame rates on the consoles, he said that they are trying their best but it’s something out of their control as both the current gen consoles have their limitations. He also said that the company is considering early preview of the game on Xbox One.
@Six7_Tango UE4 and XB1 and PS4 have their limitations that we have no power over. But we’ll do our best. It may be out of our hands.
@Ozone_Plays We’re definitely considering it! We aren’t sure yet, but we’d love to and we’ll be discussing with Microsoft. Maybe!
Some of the things we had already planned, but some of them we’ve gone away and designed them. We want you to see what you’re buying or see why you should raise your pledge. We want you to know how much we as a team and I personally care about this community having a voice. So in the coming days when we announce our stretch goals, we’re going to have a sprint to the finish line. The last few days of this kickstarter need to be huge, we need to push, tweet, share, back, like, pledge, raise, and show all the support we can for this game we’re all so proud to be a part of.
The Battalion 1944 is WW2 type Shooter game having multiplayer mode only. It was announced recently for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Stay tuned for more updates. | 2019-04-22T20:27:29Z | https://tech4gamers.com/xbox-one-and-playstation-4-have-their-limitations-battalion-1944-developer-on-60-fps-on-consoles/ |

As I mentioned in the previous post, we attended a family reunion Saturday and had a fabulous time. We visited with family, ate lots of good food and the kids had lots of fun playing with cousins. It's so awesome seeing a new generation come up and another batch of cousins who see each other once or twice a year playing like they see each other daily. The numbers were down a bit this year, but I believe we hit close to 60 in attendance by the end of the day.
We arrived early and had lots of down time before lunch.
Joe (not so) patiently waiting to eat.
This is my immediate family.
Grandmother, her daughters (my mom), their children (me) and their children (my kids).
And after lunch the kids played on the playground outside.
Joe - always setting a good example for the little ones...NOT!!
And, as you can see, we were all very tired on the ride home!
Over the weekend Jasmine was supposed to attend her first Church Camp. She has been talking about going since the beginning of the year when they started talking it up in her Worship time. Kindergarten and 1st grade attended Day Camp (Fri & Sat) at a local ranch. About Wednesday she told me her throat was a little sore so we took extra allergy meds and gargled with salt water....fast forward to Friday....I ask her Friday morning if she still wants to go 'oh yeah' no question, she is going....I drop her off at 8:30a...by 11a the nurse is calling me saying Jasmine has fever (this is the first fever). I pick her up and take her to the doctor and she has a severe sinus infection. I felt so sorry for her having to miss out, but she was ready to go. When I got there she said 'Momma, I don't want to be at camp anymore. I don't feel good.' We picked up antibiotics on the way home so she received two doses Friday and one Saturday morning and then there was no stopping her. We attended a Family Reunion Saturday and I kept having to make her stop and sit and rest for a moment.
Some of you may wonder why the title Taylor's Treasures. When starting this blog, I meant it to be a journal somewhat of the kids and what they've been up to. It has been a great outlet for me and something I really miss when I am not around a computer. I love posting pictures of my Treasure's and reading other people's blogs. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
Do you ever end up with a couple of bananas that look like this???
I don't know what it is, but when I bring a bunch of bananas home the kids eat them like crazy for the first couple days...then nothing...no matter how hard I push for a banana snack or with their breakfast they want no part of it.
I found this super easy banana nut bread recipe on Weight Watchers a few years back and when we have those yucky brown bananas, I will make a couple loaves of bread. We will eat one right away and I freeze one.
Combine cake mix, egg & milk. Add bananas. Beat on medium for 2 minutes.
Pour into 2 greased pans.
That's it. So simple and very good and low-fat.
The other night we went to a friend's house for the kids to play. They had lots of fun and while Cash made himself at home with all the 'boy' toys (i.e. ninjas, Star Wars figurines, Hot Wheels, Spiderman cards....believe me -- he was in little boy Heaven!) Jasmine was outside playing with the boys. She wore a dress over there, but when they broke out the water guns I had her put on a t-shirt with the shorts she wore under her dress. At first she was having none of it, because then she wouldn't be as cute w/o the dress...(can you sense me shaking my head in despair?). I finally convinced her and at first one of the boys said him and Jasmine were on the same team cause their guns were the same. But it soon turned into boys vs. girls -- where Jasmine did more running than shooting. They really had fun and we ended the evening with ice cream sandwiches...YUM!
And the below picture was before we hit the main road, they were both ti-errd!!
1.What is in the back of your car? Blanket, fold-up chair, Dirt Devil that plugs into lighter.
4.What were you doing at 8:00 AM? Sitting at my desk at work.
5. What were you doing 45 minutes ago? Checking work emails and printing out those that need to be handled first – I was out of the office in training yesterday.
14. What was the last sporting event you watched? Good question – honestly can not remember.
19. Do you like Chinese food more than pizza? Yes, we're making Chinese Thursday night. I can't wait.
20. Do you drink your soda with a straw? I don’t drink soda.
22. What are you doing tomorrow? Working then swim lessons for the kids.
23. Where is your dad? At home or at work – it’s a toss up with his job, never the same schedule.
29. How did you get your worst scar? Burned my knee on the riding lawn mower last year.
30. Look to your left. What do you see? Downtown Dallas out my office window.
32. What do you think of when you think of Australia? The movie Muriel’s Wedding.
33. Do you use chap stick? Yes, have a tube right next to my keyboard.
36. Have you met anyone famous? Do Hockey players count??
37. Any plans today? Denny’s for dinner, one just opened in our small town and kids eat FREE on Tuesday.
38. How many states have you lived in? Two states, two countries. Texas and New York. US and Canada.
40. Do you like cats? Yes, but I prefer dogs.
Get the Get Smart reference in the title?? I remember watching that show when I was young, I really loved it and got to stay up late during the summer with my mom. Good memories.
Anyways, back to this post....there is nothing worse than walking to your bus stop, reaching the corner and seeing this. Ughhh!! So frustrating. I'm a pretty laid back person, but have a very full calendar. So, depending on what we have going that night, I might chance sprinting and waving my hands to have the driver stop....but mostly I just wait it out for the next one. Luckily the bus I take is an Express that goes straight from Downtown Dallas to a park and ride station that is very popular, so a bus usually comes along every 10-15 minutes in the afternoons. I know what your thinking, why don't you just leave for the bus stop earlier. You would think that'd be the answer, but apparently my computer gives off a signal as I shut it down and that is when everyone realizes they have a question or a problem they would like me to help them with. I used to feel compelled to hear them out, but recently I've learned to say 'Send me an email or see me tomorrow, I have a bus to catch' and just keep walking.
I thought I would change it up a bit for the summer. How do you like?
Free template courtesy of http://www.suckmylolly.com/ , check out her design gallery!
...this is exactly how he was positioned in my belly.
At any given time I could feel those knees poking out.
Our weekend was full, but relaxing at the same time. I was able to read quite a bit between activites, which is something I love to do. Joe can watch movies all day long, (and on some days I can too) but I prefer sitting in a comfy chair with my legs up reading a book....or on our porch, I love to sit on the porch and read...and sometimes I even lay on the trampoline (when the kid's aren't on it, of course)...anyways, I think you get the point. I was able to read quite a bit this weekend and that was COOL!
Funny-every time we have someone over for a sleepover they ask when we are going to bake and what are we making. It is just a given. I often wonder if they think it is something we do every night.
NO?? That's OK, just dip one of the other attachments into the batter so everyone has one to lick!!
Don't forget the sprinkles, must always have sprinkles!!
Saturday we had planned on going to the real water park, but it rained really hard in the morning. Finally, the sun came out so we went to the local park for the kid's to play in the water later that afternoon.
On the way home from the park we stopped for super yummy snow cones, picked Joe up and headed to our friends house.
Thanks to hand me downs Jasmine had this outfit in two sizes and gave her friend the smaller one. I thought they looked ADORABLE!!
Our friends made the most yummy kabobs on the grill -- with beef, chicken, shrimp, mushrooms, onions, peppers and pineapple -- I ate way too much!!
Sunday after church we went to lunch at Gram's where I made a new recipe that ROCKED!!
Sopapilla Cheesecake -- so good and easy.
And that evening for Father's Day we made steaks and barbecue grilled asparagus on the grill.
Today Jasmine started a new summer program and I am anxious to pick her up to see how she likes it. They have fun activities planned throughout the summer and she is very excited.
Last night the girl's from our small group went out to a FREE concert in the park -- and left the kids home with the men. I have to say, we had a fabulous time. Only three of us could make it last night and we were almost giddy getting out of the house without the kids.
So much fun, hope to do it again soon!!
This week the kids started swim lessons. Monday it stormed here in the evening, but had died down by the time for swim lessons (I called the pool to verify they were having them before wasting my precious gas driving out there). They were still on - so out we went. The kids were so excited, but COLD! In with the rain came a cold front (at least for Texas) and the temperature dropped to about 70.
When it was time for classes to start they came out and called the names in Jasmine's class and they headed to the pool. Next they came and called the names for Cash's class. As they headed into the pool all the moms of the little ones followed...until we were told we needed to wait outside of the pool area. I was OK with it, but wasn't sure how Cash would handle it. He's still not too sure about swimming alone. He stayed with the group and didn't worry about where mommy was (too much).
He was happy there was a boy teacher too. He wasn't too excited about getting into the water to play ring around the rosy at first so one of the instructors stayed back with the ones not ready to dive in. He eventually decided playing with the others would be more fun and moved on.
Jasmine did great, she was ready to go from the start.
At the end of class they got to go down the frog slide.
Cash's class is only 30 minutes while Jasmine is 45.
So after his class was over he got to play on the playground outside of the pool area.
And I thought this was very cool, the playground has a wheelchair ramp. I had never seen that before.
Another jam packed weekend for our house. By Sunday evening, we were all ti-red!
After when I picked the kids up we went to the new water area I mentioned last week. The whole park is not completed yet (meaning a partial playground and no bathrooms...yikes), but we had fun with what was there.
Saturday I was up at the crack of dawn and went grocery shopping (since the rest of our weekend was spoken for). After I returned and finished putting up groceries...and baking a cake for our evening commitment...we hit the road.
First stop was a birthday party for my nephew Luke.
Wait -- back-up -- on the way to the party Jasmine called her cousin/best friend Kaja who has moved to California. They are so cute when they get on the phone...I just had to snap a picture.
OK -- back to the party.
WOW, what a place...go-karts, bumper boats, arcade, laser tag, miniature golf and best of all (according to Cash) Spiderman!!
Once Spiderman finally went away, we were able to get down to business.
First was game time, each kid got a cup full of tokens.
Now, we get really get to the good stuff....GO KARTS!! We had so much fun!!
Jasmine rode with me and Cash rode with Grandpa John...Yeehaw!
After go-karts was bumper boats, which was quite refreshing in the heat.
We all walked away good and WET!
This adventure took a little longer than I anticipated and we had thirty minutes from the time we got home until we needed to be out the door. During this time I assembled the cake I had baked in the morning.
Oh well, cake was still yummy. After baking you poke holes in the cakes and pour Jell-O over them then put them in the fridge for three hours so it can Jell. I also put a layer of strawberries in between the two layers.
We spent the evening with our small group from Sunday School and had a great time.
Sunday after Church one of the couples asked if we wanted to meet them at the water park after lunch, but I just wasn't up to it. A girl has gotta rest sometimes!! After a lunch of grilled cheese and tomato soup, I totally vegged out....at least for a few hours. That evening we had Orientation for Jasmine's Church day-camp she will be going to the end of June.
That's it, that's all she wrote....I was completely pooped and went straight to bed when we got home. Until I saw lights driving down our driveway....only they didn't stop at the house, they kept going out into our pasture. I woke Joe up and we both ran outside...turns out one of the neighbors horses had busted loose and thought our grass had more to offer than his. So our neighbor is driving his truck around in the back 40 trying to chase the horse down with only his headlights as guidance. Joe and I went back into the house and watched out the back window with amusement for awhile, then headed off to bed. | 2019-04-23T19:57:26Z | http://taylorstreasures.blogspot.com/2008/06/ |

Bryan High School, located in Bellevue, Nebraska, is part of the Omaha Public Schools (OPS) school district. The school has originated the Transportation, Distribution and Logistics (TDL) Academy as a four-year program within the high school for students interested in careers in transportation, distribution or supply-chain management. The program integrates technical instruction with academic content and provides the real-world experience needed to meet career-ready requirements. A partnership with First Book – a non-profit book bank – provides TDL students with industry recognized OSHA and forklift operator certifications.
In 2014, faced with an increased enrollment number of 120 students, and having only one real forklift, OPS purchased two Forklift Personal Simulators. Each Forklift Simulator station is set up on a desktop PC with a big screen display, speakers, table-top mounted controls, and a Logitech G27 Racing Wheel.
These new additions to the school’s TDL program have had numerous advantages. Because the simulators have a built-in instructional design that teaches real forklift operator skills and best practices for being safe at the controls instructor’s anxiety levels have significantly decreased while the kids’ confidence has increased immensely. The simulators have also allowed the students to self-start, learn at their own pace, and self—manage their training under a tight class schedule. The high school has been able to deliver over 1,000 hours of total simulator-based training to the 120 students, grades 9 – 12, throughout the school year and has resulted in the first senior class of 10 students to graduate from the new operator training curriculum with OSHA forklift certification. | 2019-04-24T23:54:02Z | http://alleghenyedusys.com/case_studies/how-omaha-public-schools-implemented-simlog-s-forklift-personal-simulators-for-osha-operator-certification-in-a-transportation-distribution-and-logistics-program |

When I was a class advisor, one of my favorite jobs was planning proms (long story involving great student council kids, teaching at a large high school, sponsoring the junior class, and a lifelong love of glitter).
At the high school where I taught, there were lots of requirements surrounding prom themes and venues. Our prom needed to accommodate 800-1000 people, which meant an off-campus venue and NOT a hotel (ahem). Prom also needed to have a theme that the seniors would be excited about AND that didn"t suggest anything that they were not allowed to do (no alcohol, etc.). Prom setup had to compete with hair, makeup, and mani/pedi appointments for student council members" time on the day before and day of the event, and months of planning culminated in a 4 hour extravaganza that needed to be home before Cinderella licenses expired ~ before midnight.
Add planning around those requirements to a full teaching schedule, and a class advisor needs to work smarter, not harder, to host an incredible prom without needing (non-existent) vacation days to recover.
So, we put our thinking caps on, and we assembled a collection of prom sized, budget conscious, user friendly pieces that will make prom planning sooooo much easier for class sponsors who need wow! factor without sticker shock ~ or a part-time job in event planning. Perhaps best of all, you and your students can feel great about choosing reusable Decor pieces ~ you"re keeping disposable Decorations out of landfills by choosing products that will work year after year, and theme after theme, and you"re saving money by adding pieces that are flexible enough to work year after year.
With the most popular prom themes in mind, we have collected some core Decor that will work every spring, allowing you to customize each year with smaller pieces, while reusing many of your basics again and again. Best of all, we have friendly customer service folks who are ready to help you with questions, since we know that planning prom is an �add on" to your job at school. Whether you"ve planned many proms or are just getting started, we can help you pick the right pieces, in the right quantities, and get them to you in time for a fabulous event this spring. And for many springs to come.
Some of our most popular prom Decor pieces are Large Chandeliers, centerpiece kits, and columns. We also sell tons of light curtains, paper lanterns, and LED balloon kits. All of these (except some of the disposable balloons/LEDs) are flexible enough to go from this year"s Starry Night to next year"s Grecian Ball to 2020"s Star Wars/Paris/Hollywood theme with ease.

Colleges and universities are ranked on a variety of criteria; from class size, retention and graduation rates to whether or not they are a top party school or have a successful athletic program.
In recent years, colleges and universities are also being judged by their “green” initiatives. Princeton Review’s Top List of Green Colleges and Sierra Club’s list of America’s Greenest Universities ranks campus sustainability practices. The categories that are examined are: Energy, Investments, Food, Innovation, Academics, Planning, Purchasing, Transport, Waste, and Water.
Sustainability measures often save a significant amount of money, and they also demonstrate that colleges are practicing what they teach.
Of the categories listed above, water and energy have an immediate financial payoff. By making the switch to energy efficient lighting and water saving devices colleges can save millions!
Boston College’s energy-efficiency efforts have resulted in annual energy savings of more than 4 million kWh, and cost savings of $650,000. The multiple conservation measures implemented on campus include more than 1.4 million square feet in lighting upgrades. Campus lighting upgrades include motion sensing, daylight harvesting, and ballast replacements. In addition, they distributed 7000 12.5 Watt LED bulbs to students.
Assumption College in Massachusetts installed toilet flush valves and water-saving shower heads in 22 buildings, which should save nearly three million gallons of water per year.
Students at American University measured the flow rate of water fixtures on campus and realized that AU could be more efficient with its water use. They shared their findings with Office of Sustainability staff members who then estimated that once all the aerators are replaced, the university will save 570,000 gallons of water, enough to fill AU’s swimming pools and almost $10,000 per year.
For other ideas on how to make your school more green and to connect with other sustainability departments you may want to visit the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education.
Conservation Mart has a wide selection of energy and water saving devices and would love to help your campus go green!
It’s that time of year again; children head off to school while administrators and the PTA crunch the numbers to make sure there is enough funding for everything that they would like to provide throughout the year.
Did you know that schools spend more on energy than any other expense except personnel? Energy is one of the few expenses a school can reduce without sacrificing educational quality.
Here are some suggestions for ways in which schools can save energy and money throughout the school year.
While it would be nice if students turned off the lights when they left the classroom, that is not often the case. Motion sensors turn lights on or off automatically, so energy is not being wasted when they go to lunch or out to recess.
Another energy saving device is a Smart Power Strip. If a teacher has a number of items plugged in, such as a computer, printer, and desk light, this strip can sense when the devices are in use or idle and turn them off automatically. These smart power strips can save up to 72% of the energy the systems use, and provide surge protection.
In addition to overhead lights, many areas of a school also use desk lamps. Schools may have hesitated switching to CFL bulbs for fear that they would leak mercury if they broke. LED bulbs use less power and last longer than CFLs or conventional bulbs and they do not contain mercury or other toxic heavy metals.
Another large expense is water. Installing aerators on kitchen, bathroom, and classroom sinks is an inexpensive way to causes a significant decline in water usage, which will result in cost savings for the school.
Schools around the country that are demonstrating ways to conserve energy and water not only save on the bottom line, they are also setting a positive example for their community. | 2019-04-19T03:12:31Z | https://www.conservationmart.com/blog/index.php/tag/green-schools/ |
REVIEW: Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. s5e16 "Inside Voices" - Do You Even Comic Book?
It is now season five episode sixteen. In this episode, Daisy and May retrieve Robin, Simmons and Yo-Yo broke Fitz out of holding, and Creel and Agent Coulson free Talbot from Hale. That is, they do that AFTER GRAVITON TRIES TO EAT CRUSHER CREEL!!! That’s right, I said GRAVITON. After four and a half years of waiting, we finally have him. Carl “Crusher” Creel aka “the Absorbing Man” was asked by General Hale to touch the Gravitonium, to absorb it and learn about it. When he opened up the container, the Gravitonium—Graviton—tried to eat him.
The odd thing is somehow he also now has memories of Hall and Ian Quinn. That’s right, I said Ian Quinn, our other payoff. The stinger of this Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is actually a deleted scene from the season one finale in which Raina opens the box and Graviton eats Quinn. Now we know what happened to Ian Quinn. This does leave us with questions though. Why is Creel hearing the voices? Why does Hall hate Coulson? We know why Quinn hates him.
Talbot (to Coulson): You know, you die more than anybody I’ve ever met.
The friendship between Agent Coulson and Talbot is heartwarming. The banter runs smoothly and Adrian Pasdar is excellent at playing a military man that’s gone crazy. Creel’s loyalty to Talbot turns him against Hale, even getting him to work counter to the voices in his head. Despite having been aligned with Hale, Creel is one of the good guys. Surprisingly one of my favorite powered people on the show, Creel is a villain in the comics.
Hale threw off all pretense of being other than a villain. She’s trying to torture Agent Coulson into compliance. Her hair is down and she no longer wears the US Air Force uniform. Hale is 100% certain that her way is the only way to the mankind. Too bad she’ll destroy us all.
May and Robin were amazing. It must have hurt Robin’s mom when she turned to May and called her “mommy.” Can you imagine what it’s like to, in your head” live in all times at once? It must be overwhelming. Also, poor Agent May. She wanted a kid with Andrew before Bahrain. She parents the team all the time. When she found out that she raised Robin, there was a look of wonder on her face. Now that she’s trying to change the future, she could lose her chance. She knows that Robin’s mom dies in the destruction they’re trying to stop. Her dream is there, but the price is too high.
Just a couple more technical things to touch on. The fight between Creel and Ruby toward the end was highly enjoyable. Also Mark Kolpack and his VFX team must have worked overtime because in addition to Creel’s Absorbing Man abilities, they made Coulson and Talbot disappear. Also Graviton was all them. I’ve heard that a liquid effect is one of the most difficult to produce, and they did amazing. I can’t praise them enough.

Windows/Mac/Linux: It's still slim pickings when it comes to finding a good freeware application for ripping Blu-Ray discs, but ripping and converting tool MakeMKV is free for as long as it's in beta—and it's undoubtedly the simplest ripper around.
Those of you with large Blu-Ray collections have probably already invested in a good ripping tool, but those running a bit behind on the format changes (or that don't have the space on your HTPC to hold all those 50 GB files) should take advantage of this limited time opportunity. MakeMKV is a two-click decrypting, ripping and converting tool for DVDs and Blu-Ray discs. Literally all you do is pop in the disc, click the DVD or Blu-Ray icon, and then hit Make MKV—30 minutes later, you've got yourself a high-definition MKV file that can be played in most media players (like Lifehacker favorites VLC or XBMC). You can opt to rip only certain chapters, as well as edit a few advanced preferences, but the default settings work just fine for those not well versed in DVD ripping lingo.
MakeMKV is a free download for all operating systems. DVD ripping will always be free, but Blu-Ray ripping is only free as long as it's in beta, after which it will go to a to-be-determined price, so get ripping now! | 2019-04-21T16:09:27Z | https://lifehacker.com/makemkv-rips-dvds-and-blu-rays-with-just-two-clicks-5498519 |
expanding relationships with allied professionals.
Is the goal here also to disseminate the significance of the various peer reviewed membership levels?
Why does C2C care get a special shout-out here?
Consider an addition: Understanding of ethics of sharing images on social media; what is appropriate to share, and what is not.
This touches on an understanding of concepts of ownership and copyright, but also respect for cultural heritage and associated peoples. For example, a conservator should have the competency to understand whether or not they have permission to share an image of an object during treatment, or to understand if it is appropriate to post images of human remains (either in an archaeological context or in a museum) on social media.
I’d like to switch the order of sentences in this paragraph. The ideas in the second paragraph seem to be the most important, the broadest, so start there.
Like MHE’s idea of public service as continuing ed.
I thought “growing issue” when I first read it….force sounds like this is powering us (in a helpful way), but really it is challenging to (most of) us!
Please see also my note on this section in FAIC.
Yes, incorporating MHE and Sanchita’s comments can make this stronger….
Yes, very good points, Sanchita. Good language for this.
I’ve put a few comments in, but overall think this is very good. Ambitious….but /and good.
I agree that this issue seems out of context here, especially as I then expected the document to say that this was an issue that FAIC Board was asked to consider….
It certainly IS an important issue…where do we go with this concept?
Re-word a bit to acknowledge intense competition for entry into programs? This could be a place to connect the diversity issue?
This section (strategy) is particularly good. Clear and directed.
Yes to Jennifer’s comment — clarify leadership positions…this is rather vague as it stands.
Yes to Jennifer’s comment s– clarify leadership positions…this is rather vague as it stands.
I agree with Jennifer — I do not agree w Deborah, as leadership can mean an very wide variety of things depending on context, an individual’s professional goals, etc.
What is meant by “Digitization of records”? Are we supposed to do retrospective scanning/OCR or some sort of digital converstion of conservation documentation of previous treatments in our lab?
Perhaps Outreach would be a better heading for this section? Since the competencies seem to be about reaching an audience beyond the lab or fellow conservators.
Perhaps “How to evaluate publications for the desired purpose” rather than simply identifying which are “the best”?
I’m not sure I understand what is meant by “pace of change” as a competency. Can that be re-stated as a learning goal or statement of KSA?
This sounds very negative and I also do not think it is necessarily true. Conservation has to be balanced with other activities in institutions and conservators are often not at the table when decisions are made. Perhaps this can be phrased more like: how can Conservators become more actively involved and claim their role as a key stakeholder in the preservation of collections.
Does Emergency communications refer to ICS terminology, structure, and forms? Recruiting and managing people for disaster salvage operations? Getting conservators involved in salvage procedures to avoid further damage to collections? Or communicating that a disaster has occurred to the media or other internal or external sources?
it seems out of place to mention on this one issue – implies there were others (which there are) but why only this one highlighted?
i find the last sentence a bit awkward – maybe “provides” a decision making process? maybe just delete entirely?
personally, i would move this first sentence “The AIC Strategic Plan incorporates existing […]” to the start of paragraph 5, and then deleted the part about the annual status review, as it is a more operational note, than of consequence to the understanding of the plan itself?
consider changing “one” to “an endeavor”? otherwise, unclear whether it is agreeing with “a time” or an “endeavor”.
change “professional conservator” to “conservation professional” to broaden scope.
add “awareness”? … goal of garnering increased “awareness and” support in the private sector.
(same as with the AIC plan) it seems out of place to mention on this one issue – implies there were others (which there are) but why only this one highlighted?
i think it was peggy who brought this up at the beginning, but i think adding […]little support for funding the arts and humanities […]” is realistic and more applicable to the broader conservation field.
are we speaking specifically of leadership in our own institutions? or are we talking about leadership in other professional organizations as well (AAM, SAA, ALA etc) and other leadership opportunities? the strategies somewhat imply the former, but it seems like we should be supporting a broader “leadership”?
Would we want to broaden this to include something like curating existing electronic resources as well? seems like there’s a lot of good content already out there that we can point to?
perhaps finish with “and sustainability.”? i don’t meant that in a financial sense, i mean that in a sustainable web content sense.
am i the only one who doesn’t know what the ‘contract fundraising council’ is?
1. Do we consider the term historic preservation to be interchangeable with cultural heritage conservation? Is “cultural” interchangeable with “artistic and historic”?
2. There are a few observations throughout the SP about political leadership not supporting conservation with little expected funding for the arts (do we mean ONLY the arts) and a lack of awareness on the part of art managers about conservation, even in their own institutions. But at the same time, there is the observation that the general public is more aware of conservation today due to better publicity, etc. This strikes me as slightly contradictory since it is the arts institutions/art media groups that are pushing publicity about conservation. Are we unconsciously alluding to our fear/suspicion/truth that the fine arts are regarded somewhat suspiciously these days as elitist, while in a broader sense, art conservation is a politically safe subject?
AIC practices sustained and strategic management of our organization, reflecting our responsibilities to our membership, allied professions, partners, the public, and adhering to our cultural heritage preservation mission.
AIC promotes the preservation of cultural heritage as a means toward a deeper understanding of our shared humanity – the need to express ourselves through creative achievements in all disciplines. We honor these achievements by preserving them for future generations.
Thought: do we consider historic preservation to be interchangeable with cultural heritage conservation?
Also, I am bit bothered by describing achievements as creative. Are natural history collections creative?
This is unclear – shouldn’t we be the voice for the materials themselves and their conservation? We don’t specify what kind of public policy are we advocating; presumably one that hears that voice and supports our mission.
Do we differentiate between professional development and continued education? Can we encourage professional service as a form of continued education?
I think we mean specifically financial resources.
Some might argue that the economic recovery is no longer slow… It is certainly selective in its recovery.
do we mean a growing concern for conservators?
University-based degree-granting programs in conservation continue to be in demand and are responsive to emerging disciplines.
I question how strong the disconnect still is between program and apprentice-trained conservators.
delete “including some that maintain conservation departments”?
AIC members significantly influence rather than have a major influence… more declarative!
This is one of the most important “charges” to the Board in terms of strategic planning – do we need to provide any info on why this is needed?
Is a licensing agreement a form of this CERTIFICATION one will immediately ask!
What is meant by member-to-member communication? Do we mean insurance, health plans?
I think we need to be more specific about what we mean by sustainability. It sounds positive, but what are we specifically emphasizing? economic, environmental , emotional ?
AIC needs a robust financial base..
I’m not sure how we “collaborate” with FAIC on financial matters. Is strategize closer to what we do?
Perhaps this could be made clearer? I’m not sure what you mean by external and internal environment changes? Do we mean financial and political conditions? ?
FAIC envisions a world that recognizes the conservation profession as critical for the preservation of all cultural materials and increasing knowledge of our shared artistic and historic heritage.
Pls see my comments on the AIC Strategic Plan.
FAIC promotes the advancement of expert knowledge of the materials and technologies of material culture and the mastery of the strategies necessary for its conservation and preservation.
Right now the document isn’t trying to say that anyone should or must digitize historical records; it’s more an acknowledgment that digitization of new & historical records is often a priority, so members of the conservation profession should understand it well enough to represent our viewpoint in planning and execution of digitization projects.
Although this has been stated in previous plans, I am not clear on what comprises the annual status review – is this part of the board report, or an additional, separate document? It would be beneficial to have a document stating how our perspective/situation has changed in the past 3 years.
Not sure what “critical endeavor means – to whom? are we talking about humanity here? endeavor supported by society, governments, and others? In light of recent destruction of world history, can we be more specific and urgent about this, in terms of how the threat against material culture threatens the history of humanity as a whole?
Little support for the arts, particularly research? Research is generally not considered an art. Needs clarification.
Not clear on what conservation training programs are in demand means. By whom?
Although I know this language has existed in previous strategic plan introductions, I’m not clear on whether this is just the usual annual status review presented at board meetings, or if it’s a stand-alone document which addresses the previous plan in relation to our current position. Could this be clarified?
Just curious about why the language from the previous strategic plan was dropped “…and the public-at-large whose tax dollars and contributions underwrite history, art, and cultural institutions.” I don’t find the change problematic, and brevity is the soul of wit, as they say, correct?
I was not clear on what “in demand” means – in demand- by/for whom?
I think perhaps we should note that this is a marked (positive) change from the previous strategic plan.
I don’t think there should be “…”s in this statement, implying that there is more language here. We should include all language.
Would it make more sense to arrange the activities we do in order of how we really do them–ie. begin with establishing standards, then fostering exchange, then providing educational opps and finally research and publication?
Since this should be our “aspiration” statement, I find that “envisioning” is too vague and passive. how about “seeks” or something similar? “appreciated” and “supported” seem less passionate than they might be. We also talk about encouraging knowledge and understanding, but we don’t say by whom. We also don’t mention newer ideas like the renewal and revival of cultural heritage, and support of people’s “life ways” through cultural heritage.
I am not sure what “cultural materials preservation” is. Why not the preservation of cultural heritage? Also, the use of the word “enduring” is tricky because we have lots of kinds of works that are not meant to be enduring but still have some kind of trace that needs preservation.
do we need “expert” here? It might be helpful to also explain what we mean by “service to the field”–is it within the organization, etc.?
this section seems to contradict the previous section which suggests we promote “expert” knowledge. Then how can we welcome anyone to join in? I think there needs to be some acknowledgement of our different constituencies, otherwise, this section seems inconsistent with what has been said before.
1.) Major international and national political and military conflicts that specifically target cultural heritage.
3.) Awareness of increasingly community-based and interdisciplinary nature of our work, and the need to have buy in from many different stakeholders.
4.) Notion of collections as “resources” that can be used and expended to fulfill other kinds of institutional (or other) goals. The importance of seeing use of collection as both an incredibly positive thing that keeps collections cultural relevant while also balancing this with potential damage/loss of collections.
I think this is always the case, so I’m not sure how relevant that is here.
But this is related to the institutions’ public missions of more exhibitions/collections on view. Can that be stated somewhere that museum collections are under increased pressure to be more public institutions with intensive public programs?
I think we need to include source communities and members of the public as well as many other stakeholders here. We need to have “buy in” from these other types of groups before we can make a conservation plan.
Could we not simply state that the membership is now over 50% in private practice first? I am not sure how intense the disparity between the program vs apprentice issue is any more, especially since the demographic of the organization has changed so significantly in recent years.
I’m not so sure about this since people are very aware of fieldwork now as well. Maybe not private conservation as much. Do we need to stay so museum-centric?
Might we broaden this from “long-term…retire” to “as the profession matures and changes, and as the needs of cultural heritage also change?
I find this confusing. Why not list goals by priority order rather than stating that these are not in priority order?
It would be helpful to clarify our focus. Are we interested in the “world’s” cultural heritage, or are we supporting North American conservators who are doing so? This seems to muddle our purpose a bit with FAIC unless we are more explicit about who we serve.
Are strategies listed in order of importance? if so, while this strategy is important, i don’t know if it is the first thing i would list. probably 6, 7, 8, and 9 are more fitting first?
I know we are not putting things in priority order, but if we were, this would be Goal II in my view.
could we better define what the “broader cultural community” is?
Should it be mentioned that this information would live on the AIC website, and that the website will also be further developed to help with these goals?
does the 4-10 years refer to online meetings?
Would this be a place to mention the need to share and report to the membership about our fiscal health on an annual basis, and as requested?
I’m wondering why the ellipses were included here? Is this a quotation from the FAIC mission statement? If so it should be indicated as such.
This is a great idea. We need to preserve the collective institutional memory of AIC and make this easily accessible to all members. Up to this point this has been a laudable but entirely volunteer-based initiative, and as such it has not been able to be very thorough or wide-ranging.
Again, the purpose of the ellipses before the first quotation mark should be better indicated. | 2019-04-24T02:55:43Z | http://resources.conservation-us.org/comment/comments-by-commenter/ |
The organisations that operate and manage ITS systems and services can each decide to do some or all of their own maintenance or sub-contract it to other organisations. The increasing complexity of ITS implementations and the services that they provide tends to promote the idea of using sub-contractors.
Advances in the technologies found in the system components and communications networks used by ITS implementations have reduced their need for regular maintenance. The days of frequent periodic maintenance activities for hardware and equipment are fast going and are being replaced by a philosophy summed up by the expression, "if it isn't broken, don't fix it".
Modern day roadside equipment will normally only need occasional replacement of light sources and sensors. Even this is declining with light sources now operating at low voltages. In other respects the trend is for maintenance activities to only be needed following the effects of extreme weather conditions, such as extremes of temperature flooding and high winds. There are some exceptions to this trend, such as mechanical barriers at car parks or bridges, and equipment in tunnels that will need extra safety checks that will need to be carried out on a regular basis.
Control centre and communications equipment is following the trend towards little or no maintenance activities. When anything does go wrong the tendency is to replace rather than repair.
The one exception to the "if it isn't broken, don't fix it" mantra is software which is often updated periodically, either because problems have been found or to include improvements. This is particularly important for any components that will be connected to the Internet, as they must be protected by sophisticated firewalls and software to prevent unauthorised access. Whenever software changes are made Configuration Management (CM) needs to be employed to ensure that the changes are managed and that it is possible to revert to the unchanged version if problems arise.
Except for the large organisations that often manage ITS implementations in cities and across states, provinces or nations, it is usual to employ sub-contractors to carry out maintenance activities. These sub-contractors may be specialist maintenance organisations, or the component suppliers, particularly for roadside components.
Whatever form of sub-contractor is used, the scope and content of their activities must be defined in a contract, sometimes called a Service Level Agreement (SLA). The SLA must define such things as what is to be maintained, the hours and days during which the sub-contractor must attend to a reported fault, the response time for a reported fault, how long a repair can take, at what point must a replacement component be fitted, spare stock holdings, plus the competence and availability of the sub-contractor's staff. A cost structure must also be included, to either fix a price for each activity, or fix an overall price for all maintenance activities. SLA's usually only operate for a fixed period of time (2-5 years) and will need to be renewed when the time has expired, often through a tender submission process.
The possible exceptions to the use of sub-contractors for maintenance activities are large cities, or other geographic areas for which the scale of the ITS implementation is large, particularly in terms of the amount of hardware used. In these instances the amount of maintenance work required will make the recruitment and training of specialist hardware maintenance staff, providing a stock of spares and a repair facility, a benefit to the organisation operating and managing the ITS implementation. Sometimes the organisations in adjacent areas can combine their maintenance activities to benefit from not using sub-contractors.
Software maintenance is usually different because even in a large ITS implementation there is not the same quantity as there is for hardware, and understanding, modifying and replacing it is more complex. For example, the software for a typical urban traffic control system may have between 250,000 and 500,000 lines of code, which will take a software engineer several months to fully comprehend before any changes can be made. Therefore it is better to get the software supplier(s) to maintain what they have supplied.
It is likely that in most countries it will be maintenance of hardware and communications links that will need to be provided, as software maintenance is almost always best left to its suppliers.
One way for a developing country to proceed is for ITS maintenance to be done by the component suppliers and communications providers. Quite often a period of maintenance can be included as part of their supply contracts. All the provisos about such things as Service Level Agreement (SLA's) mentioned previously need to be included. Items such as maintenance equipment and spare parts should be stored locally. How the spare parts are provided is something that has to be negotiated as part of the maintenance contract(s). If the service providers take responsibility for ensuring that sufficient spare parts are available it can sometimes be a question of balancing a possible reduction in the cost of maintenance against the greater freedom to change contractors at the end of the maintenance period.
Other factors to be born in mind when negotiating maintenance contracts include what local presence the maintenance contractor(s) will have, and to what extent the contractor(s) will employ local people. The latter can be very important. For the long-term future of the ITS implementation it will be advantageous if the local employees acquire the training to give them the technical skills needed to carry out the maintenance activities. | 2019-04-23T23:52:05Z | https://rno-its.piarc.org/en/systems-and-standards-systems-engineering-operation-and-maintenance/system-maintenance |
DAVIE — Josh Sitton had an idea at a recent Miami Dolphins organized team activity practice.
Sitton decided the offensive lineman should participate in a pass-punt-kick competition.
Anyone who’s been around a Dolphins practice has seen how well offensive tackles Laremy Tunsil and Ja’Wuan James can throw a football. For such big men, they really are nimble, all-around athletes.
The biggest reason Miami’s offensive line is expected to be better this season is the addition of a guard. Now, historically, Miami hasn’t really felt doling out much dough to a guard is the best way to spend.
But for Sitton, the Dolphins ponied up a 2-year, $13.5 million deal. It’s because he’s tough, physical and proven.
“He’s very competitive but he’s got a really calm demeanor, which is great for an offensive lineman, particularly an interior lineman,” Washburn said.
Sitton is a four-time Pro Bowler, including three of the past four seasons.
Guard Jesse Davis said he had studied Sitton even before he signed with the Dolphins.
Gase said Sitton’s knowledge of the game is as important as his strength. | 2019-04-22T23:00:29Z | http://dailydolphin.blog.mypalmbeachpost.com/2018/06/01/what-big-money-guard-josh-sitton-is-bringing-to-miami-dolphins/ |
Poltair pupils have today been celebrating their GCSE achievements as results at the school have improved for the third year in a row.
The vast majority of the students received due recognition for their hard work over the last five years. Connexions advisors and Cornwall College St. Austell staff were on hand to help and support students as they begin the next phase of their lives.
Stephen Tong headteacher commented "We are delighted with this year's results as they confirm the pattern of improving outcomes at Poltair. May I congratulate the pupils on their collective and individual successes which are well deserved. We wish them continued success as they meet the challenges of the future and trust they will look back at their time at Poltair School with a real sense of pride. A huge thank you to all Poltair staff whatever their role in supporting this year's GCSE students." | 2019-04-24T08:51:22Z | http://poltairschool.co.uk/Communication/Articles.html?id=77 |

Let me know what you think, please be honest so that I can improve!
I think it looks alright. I wouldn't necessarily do the same on mine, but it's not like its offensive to look at or anything. All of your tabs are neatly organized at the top, which I like. If anything I think I may consider making the picture at the top a little shorter in height.
Looks fresh and clean…makes me want to go to the beach…must be the picture! :)!
I do like the tabs, but I think the header is a bit on the large side (more specifically, the height). Perhaps you could cut it down to half the height or use palm trees as a faded background? I think the banner is great, dont get me wrong! But it is a tad large.
Thanks everyone I will be fixing it today because I thought it was a tad large also.
Oh yeah, and Penny, I do have a Labels section on the right hand bar.
I read the blog in google reader so I'm not really sure of what it looked like before. The new layout looks good. I really like the clean and uncluttered look.
Thanks everyone! I listened to everyone's comments and improved it this morning, so let me know if there's anything else!And the picture is from our Miami trip this past summer. Lots of fun!
Michelle, I'm not talking about reading posts by tag/label, but chronologically. If I'm going to go through the archives (and I generally will sooner or later) I want to start at the beginning and go in order to get a better sense of the progress you've made and the overall narrative. Most blogs have an archive where you can view posts by month in addition to the labels.
I knew something felt different but I couldn't put my hands on it. I'm late on this post like all the other post I am behind in but the blog felt neater somehow. I can't quite remember how it was before but it does feel neater and the banner up top is nice. Reminds me of a getaway and the breeze looks really strong. | 2019-04-24T10:13:10Z | https://www.makingsenseofcents.com/2011/11/new-blog-layoutdesign.html |

I always say, “Don’t judge a tooth by its x-ray.” Also, don’t assume the worst. Give things a chance.
That’s how I practice endodontics. I never say “never”, and I always give teeth a chance. I won’t know if something is going to work until I try.
My philosophy served a recent patient well.
She came to me as an emergency case, experiencing lots of pressure and pain on a tooth that had already had a root canal. Usually, I try not to “meet and treat” my patients because I need time with them – they have questions that I want to answer. I like to make sure the patient understands their treatment and treatment options, and I want to make sure I am treating the right tooth.
Getting the patient to understand the why is key, and that takes communication, transparency, and patience.
However, if the patient’s pain is characterized by intense pressure and they are in tears, I reassess the situation and treat immediately. I know that their tooth is trying to drain, and I want to make that happen for them.
When a patient comes to me and their tooth already had a root canal, my protocol is to take not just x-rays but a cone beam as well.
Some dental professionals would have said that the cone beam was suggestive of a vertical root fracture… and that was possible, and most definitely a part of my differential diagnosis. But I could not be certain.
The x-ray imaging looked like the previous root canal had been done well. But since I had no history of the tooth and the patient didn’t remember any details, I had to keep in mind that it was possible that the tooth had a new bacterial infection that had nothing to do with a crack. It can be easy to blame pain and infections on cracks when treatment isn’t working, but bacteria is a more likely culprit.
There are so many variables I did not know about the initial treatment. Was a rubber dam used? Was full-strength sodium hypochlorite used? How long did it take the patient to get her crown?
I gave the patient her treatment options: retreatment with another root canal, or extraction with an implant. I explained to her that, even if she chose a second root canal, I could find a fracture in the tooth and it would still need to be extracted. She wanted me to try it anyway. Complete transparency before starting procedures is extremely important to me, and to my patients.
So, I opened the tooth to find black, black and black. I was so surprised to see the level of infection in the tooth. The gutta percha was so contaminated by infection that it turned black.
Once I removed the gutta percha, the infection started to drain. And THIS is the key to helping a patient feel better. Instant gratification for both me and my patient.
Diagnoses require putting together lots of clues.
I understand that there’s a learning curve to reading cone beam images, and they can be misinterpreted. Some would have thought to take this tooth out because of a possible fracture. If you’re not 100% definitive in the cause of root canal failure, then access the tooth for a visual assessment to be sure. Sometimes we don’t know the answer before going into the tooth. But if you prepare your patient for the potential outcomes, then you have given them the option to take the chance with you.
The cone beam for this patient did not look good, but if I had judged the tooth by its x-ray, I would have done a total disservice to this patient. It would’ve been a complete misdiagnosis.
I was lucky that the patient wanted to try and save the tooth. It was the right choice for her and her health.
Always be transparent with your patients. Give them all their options — and the “why” behind each option.
If you rely solely on an x-ray to diagnose, you can make the wrong choice. Use all the information and clues you have.
Be open to stepping outside your standard operating procedure if it allows you to better serve a patient… especially one who is in pain.
Thanks JM! I feel the same!
Mam so irrigation was at fault in this case?
Bacterial contamination is the etiology. I don’t know whether or not a rubber dam was used, nor how they instrumented or irrigated. These are things we may NEVER know on a retreat, so I just proceed knowing that bacteria needs to be eliminated.
Thank you Dr. – I’m glad we agree!
My main frustration with my Endodontist friends is when they tell me a tooth is fractured and hopeless, and I don’t agree. I am all for saving teeth. Sometimes I can see the reasoning behind the diagnosis, ie: difficult patient, questionable prognosis. It always pleases me when you do give the tooth a chance.
Hi Robert, I will be one of your Endodontist friends who agrees you can save a tooth!
I don’t think a difficult patient or a questionable prognosis should ever stop you. I think as long as you’re transparent with your patient and explain the possibilities, and then if they are still willing to try, then it’s worth the exploration.
He was correct. we just cannot see everything and sometimes we just get fooled. I once saw a 3rd molar with a PERFECT looking 3 canal obturation done by a specialist. It was absolutely killing the patient. Upon extraction, I saw that each canal had 2 to 3 mm gutta percha overfill- but it looked perfect on the X-ray.
Most of my patients would have opted for extraction due to the cost of retreatment. This person already had the cost of RCT and crown in this tooth.
Was this case one where there was a temporary filling inside the access opening and they never had it sealed permanently?
I love the 3 types of lies! In this case, there was no temporary filling, it was permanent buildup. But they didn’t place the buildup all the way down to the gutta percha.
Thank You for the case study.
Thinking outside the box after “ listening “ to the patient and what the tooth is trying to tell you is often missed in a hurried, fast paced practices. Every day in practice we have opportunities to do good for the patient and walk away feeling gratitude and happiness.
Keep up the good work Sonia !
Dr Sonia thank you for constant updates….
Your blog gives me constant check and support to what all I decide as treatment plan, which is almost same way you do to much extent.
I keep myself up just to read your blog and that gives me strength, support and confidence as many of my fellow Endodontist colleague here in India differs.
Thank you so much for reading Shanin! This is my mission – to help spread knowledge that we all need to practice better everyday! | 2019-04-25T06:37:41Z | https://soniachopradds.com/blog/endodontic-case-study-never-judge-a-tooth-by-x-ray/ |
In Quantum Anthropologies, the renowned feminist theorist Vicki Kirby contends that some of the most provocative aspects of deconstruction have yet to be explored. Deconstruction’s implications have been curtailed by the assumption that issues of textuality and representation are specific to the domain of culture. Revisiting Derrida’s claim that there is “no outside of text,” Kirby argues that theories of cultural construction developed since the linguistic turn have inadvertently reproduced the very binaries they intended to question, such as those between nature and culture, matter and ideation, and fact and value. Through new readings of Derrida, Husserl, Saussure, Butler, Irigaray, and Merleau-Ponty, Kirby exposes the limitations of theories that regard culture as a second-order system that cannot access—much less be—nature, body, and materiality. She suggests ways of reconceiving language and culture to enable a more materially implicated outcome, one that keeps alive the more counterintuitive and challenging aspects of poststructural criticism. By demonstrating how fields, including cybernetics, biology, forensics, mathematics, and physics, can be conceptualized in deconstructive terms, Kirby fundamentally rethinks deconstruction and its relevance to nature, embodiment, materialism, and science.
Vicki Kirby is Associate Professor in the School of Social Sciences and International Studies at the University of New South Wales. She is the author of Judith Butler: Live Theory and Telling Flesh: The Substance of the Corporeal. | 2019-04-18T11:01:08Z | https://www.dukeupress.edu/quantum-anthropologies |
While house painting is not necessarily a DIY project, There’s no shame in Googling “painters in my area” if the job gets too big. In the end, you want your home to be amazing.
Don’t neglect the roof gutters or they will get clogged and lead to potential roof problems and/or foundation issues when the water isn’t properly routed. Again, not really a DIY gig, but if you don’t want to search for “gutter installation near me” go check out YouTube for a host of how-to gutter maintenance videos. | 2019-04-18T18:26:09Z | http://sortarticles.com/diy-home-remodeling-tips/ |
Organic growers only use products derived from natural sources to manage pests and diseases in the vineyard. Synthetic herbicides and insecticides are prohibited.
By finding inventive ways to work with the cycles of nature organic growers manage the numerous pests and diseases that attack vines, leaves, roots and fruit, without using hazardous chemicals.
Organic systems are designed to minimise the need for chemicals, and all organic growers must have an established plan for doing this. For example, many organic vineyards sow flowering plants such as buckwheat and Phacelia between vine rows to provide nutrients and habitats for beneficial native insects that work to deter harmful pests.
Without the use of synthetic chemicals to stop a disease outbreak, organic growers take a proactive approach, watching for signs of any presence throughout the growing season. To keep diseases from taking hold in the canopy, organic growers work to maintain an open canopy, letting air and light reach the grapes.
All chemicals used must be approved by an organic certification body before they can be used in organic vineyards. Organic sprays are normally made from natural mineral elements or beneficial bacteria and fungi, which outcompete diseases.
The organic winemaking process is also closely monitored. All chemical agents used in the winemaking process must be certified organic, and come from natural sources.
Sulfites must remain at low levels in organic wine. Organic wineries also avoid chemical cleaners, maintaining hygiene through the use of certified organic products, hot water and steam. | 2019-04-20T15:06:45Z | https://www.nzwine.com/en/sustainability/pillars-of-sustainability/pest-disease-management/organic-pest-disease-management/ |

THERE is this book called “The Forty Dreams of St. John Bosco.” In it are contained some of the dreams God allowed the saint to have, of course, for the benefit of souls. In the book we can see the values of St. John Bosco. It is interesting to note that his greatest worry is the spiritual life of his boys.
In his dreams he lamented how some of the boys committed mortal sins, lost the state of grace, committed sins against the virtue of chastity, made bad confessions, made sacrilegious communions, how some, although in the state of grace did nothing to advance in the spiritual life. I suppose putting food on the table for his oratory and giving lodging for his boys was a big problem for him but it is interesting how, before anything else, he worried about the spiritual welfare of his boys.
This I think is what we can learn from St. John Bosco during the year of the youth. Before anything else, we ought to foster the spiritual welfare of the youth, we ought to help them form solid and formidable foundations of the Spiritual Life. Before anything else, we ought to produce, out of our youth groups, devout young people -Dominic Savios, Laura Vicuñas, Rolando Rivis, Aloysius Gonzagas, Maria Gorrettis, Pedro Calungsods. Sociologists Christian Smiths and Melinda Denton made a study. Their study yielded that most of the american youth adhere to what they call a moral therapeutic deism – a quick google search would explain this. I believe, although I hope I am mistaken, that this is a sad reality in many youth groups today -feel good activities without talk of mental prayer, devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, penance, devotion to the Blessed Sacrament, Mortification, weekly confession, spiritual reading the spiritual life etc. Feel good activities, are not wrong in themselves but if we do not teach the youth about the spiritual life, about how to live devout lives, our youth groups become, as in the words of Dom Jean-Baptiste Chautard OCSO, in his book, the Soul of the Apostolate, “a youth club run by the Church.” If we fail to do this, if we fail to ensure the spiritual welfare of the youth, if we faik to foster the devout life among the youth, the year of the youth would have been futile, youth days and gatherings would be useless, we would have failed.
Surely St. John Bosco did not neglect the other things. He made sure his boys, when they left the oratory, had good jobs, were educated well but before that, he made sure his boys were living devout lives and would merit a canonization. St. John Bosco produced great men. He produced Cardinals, Archbishops, politicians -to name a few- but all of their acheivements combined would not have caused as much joy to St. John Bosco as the canonization of St. Dominic Savio and the beatification of Blsd. Laura Vicuña. | 2019-04-20T11:22:13Z | https://mindanaogoldstardaily.com/what-st-john-bosco-can-tell-us/ |
So, I've made a decision. It's finally time for me to accept that I'm an artist and that I work from home and that I need more room to do these things.
You see, I need a studio.
The main objective is to turn the most used space in my apartment into a designated working area. It's not just me, Colin needs more working space too. This place is really too small to use it the way we are. We're going to get rid of the couch. We don't sit on it anyway. (That, and all of us monkeys in the last apartment utterly destroyed it. You know who you are.) The rest of the planning and reorganizing is a blur to me at the moment, but I can't wait to start using the beautiful, unfinished-wood work bench I bought a few months ago. It's been in the garage this whole time. We're also going to buy some sort of new cabinet thingie. Yay!
Where we will sit on the rare occurrences that we actually want to sit in front of the TV will have to be decided on later. It's only going to be a problem when LOST is on anyway. Meat will be furious, but I think we're going to spare him a cushion.
Also, check out my Showcase on Trunkt, which was put on the front page for today! :o) I'm going through a weird Butter phase. It's an amazing color. | 2019-04-18T21:07:59Z | https://www.shaylamaddox.com/oldwritings?category=studio |
The following video is a treasure because it provides real life look into the housing bubble brewing in Southern California through the eyes of a "normal" middle class family in that area. They have been priced out of the housing market and, like many families living in the area, they are watching prices runaway to the upside while they try and save for a down payment.
The video shows tour buses filled with wealthy Chinese investors looking to deploy excess cash in American real estate. Most do not remember, but this exact same process occurred in the late 1980's when Japanese investors flooded the American real estate market with their excess capital. Their economy experienced a tremendous asset boom during the 1980's and money was flooding into America driving real estate prices higher. There was a fear at the time the Japanese were going to purchase "everything" in America and essentially take over the country.
The Japanese asset bubbles burst in the early 1990's and the buyers of American real estate quickly became sellers which helped create the savings and loan crisis that struck American banks in 1991. Once hot properties were bundled and sold to investors at a fraction of their late 1980's prices (both residential and commercial).
The echo bubble today is following the exact same process. China has experienced a real estate price surge over the last 10 years due to a government sponsored debt fueled mania. To help put the magnitude of their debt growth into perspective think about this: The entire U.S. banking system is $15 trillion in size. China has increased the size of their banking system debt from $10 trillion in 2007 to over $25 trillion today. That means they have added a debt mountain equal to the size of the entire U.S. banking system in just 8 years to an economy that is almost 40% smaller than the United States in terms of GDP. Almost all of this money has found its way into the Chinese real estate markets causing prices to explode higher. Excess capital from wealthy developers and real estate investors has poured onto American shores. While areas like New York and Miami have felt a surge in Chinese real estate investment, Southern California has been the focal point.

Who says that disco is dead? Whoever has been spreading that lie has obviously never been to one of your famous decade parties. Two years ago it was the 90s, and all the flannel grunge that came with it. Last year was the Roaring 20s. Now it’s time for the 70s and disco chic to take center stage! Just throw on the record player with some sweet tunes, hang up the disco ball, and show the naysayers that disco never died. Oh and don’t forget the most important thing: this women’s DiscoLicious Costume!
More than the music, the lights, or the groovy attitude, this costume embodies the spirit of disco. Just look at it—the patterns, colors, and cut—it’s everything you need to say, “Disco Lives Forever.” Now it’s time to make sure you show everyone your perfected dance moves!
This fab outfit features a sequin-covered psychedelic print, perfectly suited for unforgettable disco style. The top tunic is form fitting and has a V-neckline that gathers at the center. Meanwhile, the sleeves are widely flared below the elbow. If you swing your arms at just the right rhythm, they paint the air in an enchanting way. The matching pants, similarly, are form fitting and flare below the knees, perfect for adding the exact emphasis you need on any high kicks, leg swings, and strutted steps across the dance floor. Finishing off the look is a rectangular scarf with tapered ends to tie around your neck, hair, head, or whatever else you feel is stylishly necessary.
We’re sorry that we won’t be able to make it to your 70s party, but we’re sure it’ll be a real smash! It will probably be more than enough to convince all those squares that their idea that disco is dead is…well…foolish. Disco is alive and well! Now go and enjoy those crazy patterns, bright lights, and killer music! | 2019-04-22T20:02:37Z | https://www.fun.com/womens-1970s-discolicious-costume.html |

The role of the AASP Strategic Alliance Liaison is to promote the organization to groups and organizations outside of the field of sport and exercise psychology. For instance, this individual would promote AASP and the larger profession to sport, exercise and related performance groups and organizations. To do this, the AASP Strategic Alliance Liaison will work closely with the public relations firm contracted by the organization and the Public Relations and Outreach Division Head. This individual will report directly to the Public Relations and Outreach Division Head.
The role of this individual is to work with the Community Outreach Committee to generate a list of groups and organizations that AASP could connect with to increase the profile of AASP and sport and exercise psychology as a profession globally. As such, the goal is to increase the number of sport and exercise psychology related jobs in the industry, and to ensure that AASP has a connection with other professional organizations.
Within this role, the individual would make phone calls and develop connections with professional and sport, exercise and performance related groups/organizations. The individual would serve as a long-term connection with the Joint Commission on Sports Medicine and Science, and be willing to attend related conferences (e.g., JCSMS, ACSM, NASPE, APA Div 47, BASES, COSP) and travel to meet with executives from related organizations (e.g., NCAA, Little League Baseball) with the funding of AASP.
The AASP Strategic Alliance Liaison position is an appointed (volunteer) position that serves at the will and pleasure of each AASP President coming into office. Appointments of this position by the President will be made in consultation with the Public Relations and Outreach Division Head and the Executive Board. Since this position is not an elected position, it is not considered an Executive Board position, and does not have voting privileges on the Executive Board. However, it is essential that the individual serving in this position have a strong understanding of the history and current directions of the organization and Executive Board. Therefore, when appropriate, this individual will be invited to sit in on Executive Board meeting phone calls, and when appropriate, discuss issues pertinent to the strategic alliance initiatives of the organization. The person serving in this role will not be eligible to sit in on any executive sessions of the executive committee, and in most cases will not travel to spring board meetings. The individual within this role will be filled-in on all other relevant Executive Board issues by the Public Relations and Outreach Division Head. Given the role of this individual, it would be preferable for the individual to have previously served on the Executive Board, and have a strong understanding of the history and functioning of the organization. Further, it would be preferable for the person in this role to have background in and appreciation for both psychology and exercise science.
The position of AASP Strategic Alliance Liaison will be developed on a trial basis. Therefore, this position will begin in 2013 and will have an automatic sunset of December 2016. Based upon the merits of this position as determined by the standing Executive Board in 2016, a decision can then be made about renewal or making this position permanent. If the decision is made to renew this position in 2016, the Executive Board should also consider putting in a term length for the position (e.g., 6 years). | 2019-04-21T05:13:41Z | https://appliedsportpsych.org/about/aasp-committees/strategic-liaison-position/ |

POLPERRO LOW TIDE by Colin Ruffell.
POLPERRO LOW TIDE is one of the holiday memory pictures from my portfolio of giclee fine-art prints.
The style of painting is called ‘cloisonnism’ where the areas of colour are surrounded by black lines. The term was coined in post-impressionist France in 1888. I adopted the technique after watching my kids paint. And children’s art has inspired the way that I distort perspective. It is an interesting picture-language and great fun to paint.
First I create the original painting then I scan the image to make a digital file. We own a wide format Epson giclee printer meaning that I can print-on-demand to the highest international standards providing a valuable investment for your fine-art collection.

The Public Service Alliance of Canada applauds the federal government’s decision to re-open Veterans Affairs offices in nine cities within one year.?

จุดอ่อนบาคาร่าRon Clarke?spent 36 years in the Canadian Armed Forces.?“I retired with a problem with my back. And then later on I was diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder, and then arthritis in the hands and then the arthritis in the spine,” he says.
Robyn Young is only 24 years old, but has already served in the Royal Canadian Navy for eight years. She is currently unable to serve, due to the side effects from surviving both a brain tumour and an unnecessary surgery that has left her with permanent double vision and constant vertigo and nausea.
She has been trying to get help from Veterans Affairs. But the office in Windsor closed last year, along with eight others in Canada.
Michelle Bradley and the workers she represents are on the front lines.
As the National Vice President for the Atlantic Region of the Union of Veterans Affairs Employees, she represents the people who work directly with veterans — processing benefits claims and assisting them with their day-to-day needs.
Robert Cutbush is 50 and served 25 years in Royal Canadian Navy. He is the president of his local Legion in Thunder Bay and extremely active in supporting veterans in his community.

Yet his parent need help at home, so he was homeschooled in the morning and help out in the afternoon. So he was isolate from most kids his own age. This lead him to treasure all relationship he was able to get.
Unfortunately, one of these friendships was the catalyst to change his whole life. On his 12 birthday, his best friend challenge him to go into a small hole in a tree. At the same time an earthquake happen, trapping him in the hole and mostly destroy his family. His mother died and his father was dem unfit to raise him and his sister. They later split them apart, leaving Chronus his sister scarf as a memento.
He later left his foster home some time after his thirteenth birthday. A week later he found himself in the middle of mafia fight. He got stuck hiding with a badly injury member that had lose conscious. At the time, Chronus couldn't stand the site of someone hurt in front of him, so he did a patch job for the person. The next morning, the member woke up and introduce himself as the leader of the Scarlatto Family. A family know for using animal tattoo as a sign of respect. He latter took in Chronus into the family and train him as their doctor.
It was during the times with the Scarlatto family that he first discover the world of magic. Chronus don't really remembers what had happen only that when he awoke he was surround by flames all around. After a few hits and miss he discover how to use his magic, which lead him to be discover by a staff member of the mage academy. After talking with the staff member, and latter with the family, it was decided that it was best for him to go and join it. This is where the story pick up.
Fighting Style:Chronus is a combat medic, which means he was train to heal in the middle of combat. Because of this he tries to stay in the sidelines to oversee the battle and try to control it. This does not mean he’ll stay out of the combat. He will take a shot, if he sure it will make it. But overall, he’ll stay hidden and do guerrilla warfare.
If for some reason he finds himself unable to do his guerrilla warfare tactics he’ll stay back and use long range fire magic spells and enhance weaponry. He was never train to fight physical so he avoids all fist fight. His skills with weaponry and fire magic make up for his lack of physical ability. Even though he must limit his fire magic due to it more destructed tenancies. Especially when fighting in close environments.
Items of Significance: Lilith Scarf: A little violet scarf that have a small crest on it.
Earphone & MP3: Just a MP3 with few music of classic taste.
Hello Chronus, my name is Sheep and i'll be evaluating your application first.
From what I can tell, though you are applying for just a student, i'm going to need just a bit more detail in almost all areas.
Character Description: Please put a bit more in this. Give us a full description of Chronus's features: voice, hair, skin, body type, that sort of thing. Does he have any scars? If so, where are they located? As for types of clothes and what he normally wears, perhaps go into a tiny bit more depth with this?
Likes and Dislikes and Fears: These are good, but keep in mind it helps us to have more to get a good read on your character. As for fears, could you explain why he fears those?
Personality: I'm going to need more for this. Give us details on how he takes certain situations and how he'll act in front of others. Just give us a bit more detail and perhaps go into more depth? What does he do when he's put in a stressful situation? is he a happy person normally or is he just a bit calm and collected instead? or both? think more on who Chronus is and how he acts and put them in there. How is Chronus right now? how is he right at the moment you put him into the roleplay?
History: as I said before, just a bit more details for this. Perhaps explain more on his life. Since he's 15, I don't expect much more since it's only been a short while.
Fighting Style: Going to need more. How does he fight? How does he respond to certain situations? How does he fight if he runs low on magic? Does he run away from a fight or does he make some courageous effort to help those fighting as well?
Generally I'm seeing a bit error, and if it's okay with you I'd like to have permission to clear up some spelling and/or grammatical errors the best I can.
Anyway, we need more information on his behavior like formality, integrity, interest and even more, sadly this is a bit more work for you but it'll be worth it. Thumbs up!
Also we'd like a bit more of his likes, dislikes and fears expanded. There has to be more things to it than just that short few.
This message is brought to you by Caesar's, Eatza Pizza!
Approval Given, it matches the standard criteria of student position characters, however it does seem imbalanced, not in term of power but in terms of character application presentation.
And I will say, that's a pretty smart guy you've got there.
Alright, since Naro and vichi got this done and approved, I'll just put my stamp on it and send it off to the student section. | 2019-04-18T15:00:16Z | http://remage.forumotion.com/t252-chronus-shyburn |
SACRAMENTO, CA (April 27) - The Rubicon Trail is open and OHV recreation is sustained on this icon of four-wheeling, according to the Rubicon Trail Foundation (RTF) and Friends of the Rubicon (FOTR). The Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board (CVRWQCB) voted unanimously to issue a Cleanup and Abatement Order (CAO) to El Dorado County and the Eldorado National Forest for the world-famous Rubicon Trail that sustains motorized recreation while enhancing stewardship of the trail.
Not only did the Board enact an order that recreationists can live with, but they also went so far as to praise the efforts of the volunteers for addressing trail issues in such a prompt manner all these years. | 2019-04-21T00:50:25Z | http://www.4x4wire.com/component/content/article/43-4x4-access/accesslanduse/580-rubicon-stays-open?Itemid=290 |

Next Tuesday, Congress returns from its August Recess. From there, Congress only has twelve working days in the Capitol scheduled for September. Obviously, this calendar was devised before Hurricane Harvey. Still, one must ask: How on earth will they be able to pass a budget, advance some sort of “tax reform”, and pass emergency assistance for Harvey victims in such a short amount of time?
Even before a Category 4 hurricane developed off the Gulf Coast, Congress was in for stormy weather this fall. The federal government’s fiscal year ends on September 30. Since Congress and the White House could only agree upon a continuing resolution through the end of this fiscal year, the federal government will shut down on October 1 unless Congress can pass some sort of spending authorization before then.
At the same time, the White House and Congressional Republican leaders have been promising tax reform ever since their attempt to repeal the Affordable Care Act failed. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce now expects Republicans to deliver on their promise of lower corporate tax rates. Will there be anything in their “reform” package for the not-wealthy? We don’t even know what exactly they mean by “tax reform”, as neither the White House nor Congressional Republicans have released any detailed proposals.
But with Republicans feuding with each other and the Trump Administration continues to burn down any remaining bridges with Democrats, how can Congress realistically agree upon a budget and a tax deal with only one month to go?
Will this be Trump’s latest manufactured crisis?
Though Congressional Republicans manufactured crises during the Obama Presidency, Donald Trump has taken it next level during his first seven months in office. Even as Hurricane Harvey was approaching Texas last weekend, Trump manufactured more crises with a ban on transgender military service, a pardon for anti-immigrant conspiracy theorist and ex-Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio, and continued stonewalling of the investigations into the Trump family’s murky relationships with the Russian government.
On top of all that, Trump is threatening a government shutdown next month if Congress doesn’t approve funding for his Mexican border wall. On Sunday, the Mexican government reiterated it will not pay for a wall it doesn’t want. Instead of working on some sort of budget agreement, Trump is already blaming House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wisconsin) and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) for not raising the debt ceiling earlier. All this, and there’s now a hurricane in the mix.
Will the disaster relief effort become a disaster itself?
Though Republican leaders have suggested emergency legislation to assist Hurricane Harvey victims will emerge next week, some in their ranks are demanding budget cuts to “offset” emergency assistance. Texans in harm’s way will turn to the National Flood Insurance Program and other FEMA relief efforts for help, even as the National Flood Insurance Program is already saddled with $24 billion in debt and set to expire at the end of the month (if Congress doesn’t reauthorize). Already, Republicans in Congress are demanding a “great debate” on the proper role of government… While Harvey victims are looking to their elected government to provide some needed relief now.
Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) is demanding federal assistance for his state, even as he continues to condemn a similar 2013 aid package for Hurricane Sandy victims as “a bill filled with pork”. Meanwhile, Trump continues to obsess over crowd sizes, photo ops, and TV ratings as Houston’s dams begin to spill over. When the nation should be coming together to assist Harvey victims in need, Trump and his allies are doing everything possible to rip this country further apart.
It’s bad enough that the nation can’t have the certainty of knowing whether the federal government will remain fully functioning in October. Now that Harvey is here, this White House and this Congress need to get their priorities in order. Thus far, there’s scant evidence that Republican leaders on either end of Pennsylvania Avenue are doing so. That right there is a recipe for disaster. | 2019-04-20T12:17:00Z | https://nevadaforward.com/2017/08/31/congress-harvey-budget/ |
CABI has published a book on Crisis and Conflict in Agriculture that has been edited by Rami Zurayk, Rachel Bahn and myself. Book launches are held at the Graduate Institute in Geneva and American University of Beirut.
The book discusses the causes and effects of crisis and conflict within an agricultural and rural context. It explores issues such as competition over resources, and looks at how crisis and conflict impact upon developing country agriculture for both the physical and human agricultural landscape. It reviews crises stemming from politically-driven violence as well as natural disasters and climate change.
Includes numerous case studies focusing on developing countries within Asia, Latin America, Middle East, North Africa, and Sub-Saharan Africa.
Jadalliyya online platform has featured the book on Wise Cities in the Mediterranean in its New Texts Out Now series (NEWTON).
Cities are home to over half the world’s population, consume a majority of its resources and cause a large share of its waste. Cities are both a challenge for global sustainability and crucial for its solution. Their settlement density and networks of creativity provide the space and the ideas for improved resource management. Above all they epitomise the needs and aspirations of their citizens. They are spaces of longing and belonging with promises of social equitability, individual freedom and political participation.
Cities on the southern and northern shores of the Mediterranean are among the oldest in the world and can draw on rich traditions of architecture, urban development and municipal administration. Yet, there are fundamental differences between these cities. Mega-cities like Istanbul and Cairo grapple with different challenges than medium-sized cities along the Côte d’Azur that have higher per capita incomes and better infrastructure. Cities in the north of the Mediterranean also have stronger traditions of municipal self-governance and autonomy.
For all their differences, Mediterranean cities share some of today’s most common urban challenges, such as environmental degradation, gentrification and growing inequality, climate change, provision of services, mass urbanisation, migration, and the fourth industrial revolution, to name just a few. This book seeks to contribute to a necessary debate on the social and environmental sustainability of urban growth in the Mediterranean and beyond. | 2019-04-23T08:31:37Z | http://oilforfood.info/ |

In 2013, the MIT Media Lab started creating a new version of Scratch, a graphical, block-based programming language used by tens of millions of kids to create and share interactive stories, games, and animations. We partnered with the Media Lab on this new version of the language—Scratch 3.0—and the Google Blockly team developed the programming language’s graphical coding blocks. OurCS First program, which offers kids in fourth through eighth grades Scratch coding lessons, also created new activities designed to teach Scratch’s new features.
On January 2, Scratch 3.0 launched with a new look, new sprites (digital characters that perform actions in a project), backdrops (backgrounds), sounds, and extensions—plus, it’s now available on tablets. To help educators get ready for Scratch 3.0, we’ve created a comprehensive help article that includes support documents and videos featuring the new interface and customizable lesson plans.
I recently caught up with Mitchel Resnick, who leads the group at MIT that develops Scratch, to talk about the programming language and what’s new in version 3.0.
What is Scratch 3.0 and why is it cool?
Scratch 3.0 is a new version of Scratch that expands how and what students can create with code. We’re excited to see the diverse and creative projects that students will develop with it.
What are your favorite features of 3.0?
I love the Scratch 3.0 “extensions.” Each extension gives students an extra set of coding blocks to take Scratch’s capabilities even further. With new robotics extensions, students can use Scratch to program motors, lights and sensors. With the Google Translate extension, students can program characters to speak in other languages. As the library of extensions continues to grow, Scratch will have even more capabilities.
If you had to choose a sprite to represent yourself, which would you choose and why?
I’d choose the Ten80 Dance sprite. I’m a really bad dancer myself and wish I had moves like these.
What are some of the new sprites and backdrops?
We worked with artists and illustrators (including long-time Scratcher ipzy) to create a diverse collection of new sprites and backdrops. You’ll find new fashion sprites, animals, snacks, cars and more. Do you want to create a fantasy world with centaurs, griffins and unicorns? How about a game set in outer space? Are you into sports or dancing or dinosaurs? Whatever you’re interested in, we think there’s something for everyone in Scratch 3.0.
What are some Scratch 3.0 features that educators will like?
Educators will appreciate the new video tutorials in Scratch 3.0—there are tutorials to help students get started, explain new features and support new types of projects. We also worked closely with the CS First team to ensure that CS First videos and activities are ready for use with Scratch 3.0. Plus, Scratch 3.0 works on many different platforms, including touch devices like tablets—and there’s a desktop version of Scratch 3.0, so you can still use Scratch 3.0 even if you don’t have an internet connection.
Scratch 3.0 is live in CS First now, so be sure to check out its new look and features. To get some inspiration for your next creation, head to theonline community to see others’ Scratch projects. | 2019-04-21T04:59:26Z | https://all-markup-news.com/whats-new-in-scratch-3-0-a-programming-language-designed-for-kids/ |
Select a location for the file, and enter a filename.
Select a format from the Save As Type (Windows) or Format (Mac OS) pop‑up menu.
For a video on exporting content from Illustrator, see How to save a file for output.
You can export multiple artboards only to the following formats: SWF, JPEG, PSD, PNG, and TIFF.
AutoCAD Drawing is the standard file format for saving vector graphics created in AutoCAD. AutoCAD Interchange File is a drawing interchange format for exporting AutoCAD drawings to or importing drawings from other applications. For more information, see AutoCAD export options. Note: By default, white strokes or fills in Illustrator artwork are exported to the AutoCAD formats as black strokes or fills; and black strokes or fills in Illustrator are exported to the AutoCAD format as white.
A standard Windows image format. You can specify a color model, resolution, and anti-alias setting for rasterizing the artwork, as well as a format (Windows or OS/2) and a bit depth to determine the total number of colors (or shades of gray) that the image can contain. For 4‑bit and 8‑bit images using Windows format, you can also specify RLE compression.
Widely used by Windows applications as an interchange format for exporting vector graphics data. Illustrator may rasterize some vector data when exporting artwork to EMF format.
Commonly used to save photographs. JPEG format retains all color information in an image but compresses file size by selectively discarding data. JPEG is a standard format for displaying images over the web. For more information, see JPEG export options. You can also save an image as a JPEG file using the Save For Web & Devices command. Note: Artifacts, such as wave-like patterns or blocky areas of banding, are added to a file each time you save the file as a JPEG. Always save JPEG files from the original image, not from a previously saved JPEG.
Used with Mac OS graphics and page-layout applications to transfer images between applications. PICT is especially effective at compressing images with large areas of solid color.
A vector-based graphics format for interactive, animated web graphics. You can export artwork to the Flash (SWF) format for use in web design, and view the artwork in any browser equipped with the Flash Player plug‑in. For more information, see Flash export options. You can also save an image as an SWF file using the Save For Web & Devices command, and you can export text as Flash Dynamic or Input text (see Tag text for export to Flash). In addition to exporting artwork in Flash format, you can copy Illustrator artwork and paste it into Flash. The fidelity of artwork is maintained across the clipboard.
The standard Photoshop format. If your artwork contains data that cannot be exported to Photoshop format, Illustrator preserves the appearance of the artwork by merging the layers in the document or by rasterizing the artwork. As a result, there may be times when layers, sublayers, compound shapes, and editable text are not preserved in the Photoshop file, even though you selected the appropriate export option. For more information, see Photoshop export options.
Used for lossless compression and for display of images on the web. Unlike GIF, PNG supports 24‑bit images and produces background transparency without jagged edges; however, some web browsers do not support PNG images. PNG preserves transparency in grayscale and RGB images. For more information, see PNG export options. You can also save an image as a PNG file using the Save For Web & Devices command.
Designed for use on systems that use the Truevision® video board. You can specify a color model, resolution, and anti-alias setting for rasterizing the artwork, as well as a bit depth to determine the total number of colors (or shades of gray) that the image can contain.
Used to exchange files between applications and computer platforms. TIFF is a flexible bitmap image format supported by most paint, image-editing, and page-layout applications. Most desktop scanners can produce TIFF files. For more information, see TIFF export options.
An intermediate exchange format for 16‑bit Windows applications. WMF format is supported by almost all Windows drawing and layout programs. However, it has limited vector graphics support, and wherever possible, EMF format should be used in place of WMF format.
Specifies the version of AutoCAD that supports the exported file.
Enter values for Scale Units to specify how Illustrator interprets length data when writing the AutoCAD file.
Scales the lineweights, along with the rest of the drawing, in the exported file.
Determines the color depth of the exported file.
Specifies whether images and objects that are rasterized during export are saved in PNG or JPEG format. Only PNG supports transparency; if you need to preserve appearance to the maximum extent possible, choose PNG.
Select if you need the appearance to be maintained and don’t need to make edits to the exported file. Selecting this option may lead to a significant loss of editability. For example, text may be outlined and effects will be rasterized. You can select this option or Maximum Editability, but not both.
Select if the need to edit the file in AutoCAD outweighs the need for maintaining appearance. This option may lead to significant loss of appearance, especially if you’ve applied style effects. You can select this option or Preserve Appearance, but not both.
Exports only the artwork in the file that is selected at the time of export. If no artwork is selected, a blank file is exported.
Changes the paths in AutoCAD to maintain the original appearance, if necessary. For example, if during the export, a path overlaps other objects and changes their appearance, this option alters the path to maintain the objects’ appearance.
Converts all text to paths before export to maintain appearance. Illustrator and AutoCAD may interpret text attributes differently. Select this option to maintain maximum visual fidelity (at the cost of editability). If you need to edit the text in AutoCAD, don’t select this option.
When you export artwork to SWF format, you can set the following Basic and Advanced options. You can export multiple artboards to SWF format.
At any time, you can click Web Preview to preview the file in the default web browser (Flash Player browser plug‑in should be installed for the browser), or click Device Central to preview the file in Flash Player on a particular mobile phone or device.
Note: If your goal is to bring Illustrator artwork into a Flash document, you can simply paste it in. All paths, strokes, gradients, text (specify Flash Text), masks, effects (such as drop shadow on text), and symbols are maintained. In addition, you can specify how layers are imported when pasting: as Flash layers, frames, or graphic symbols.
Specifies the preset option settings file to use for exporting. If you change the default settings, this option changes to Custom. You can save a custom option settings as a new preset for reuse with other files. To save option settings as a preset, click Save Preset.
Exports the artwork to a single frame. Select this option to preserve layer clipping masks.
Exports the artwork on each layer to a separate SWF frame, creating an animated SWF.
Exports the artwork on each layer to a separate SWF file. The result is multiple SWF files, each containing a single frame with the artwork from a single Illustrator layer.
Converts the artwork on each layer to a symbol and exports it to a single SWF file. AI layers are exported as SWF Movie Clip symbols. The symbols are named using their corresponding layer names.
Exports each of the selected artboards to a separate SWF file. This is the only option available when you choose to preserve multiple artboards in the Save As dialog box. If you save a preset with this option selected, you can use that saved preset only on files with multiple artboards.
Specifies the version of Flash Player for browsing imported files. The Compress File option isn’t available in Flash version 5 and earlier. Dynamic Text and Input Text aren’t available in version 3 and earlier.
Exports the Illustrator artwork within the selected artboard’s borders) to the SWF file. Any artwork outside the borders will be clipped off. This option is checked and disabled when exporting multiple artboards.
Select Preserve Appearance to flatten artwork to a single layer before export. Selecting this option limits the editability of the file.
Compresses the SWF data, resulting in a smaller file size. Note that Flash players prior to Flash Player 6 can’t open or display compressed files. Don’t use this option if you’re not sure what version of the Flash player the file will be viewed on.
Exports all the symbols in the Symbols panel. If a symbol doesn’t have an active instance in the artwork, the symbol isn’t included in the exported frames; however, it is available for use in the Flash Symbol Library within the Flash Authoring environment.
Converts type to vector paths. Use this option to preserve the visual appearance of type in all Flash players. If you prefer to have maximum text editing ability, deselect this option.
Exports text without the kerning values.
Exports the metadata associated with the file. Exported XMP information is minimized to keep file size small. For example, thumbnails aren’t included.
Prohibits users from modifying the exported SWF file.
Type a password to protect the file from being opened by unauthorized users or in applications other than Adobe Flash.
Determines the accuracy of the Bezier curves. A lower value decreases the exported file size with a slight loss of curve quality. A higher value increases the accuracy of the Bezier curve reproduction, but results in a larger file size.
Specifies a background color for the exported SWF file.
Specifies whether you want the file to access only local files or network files during playback.
Determines how the artwork is compressed. Lossless compression maintains the highest image quality but creates a large SWF file. Lossy (JPEG) compression creates a smaller SWF file but adds artifacts to the image. Select Lossless if you intend to continue to work on the file (or files) in Flash; select Lossy if you’re exporting the final SWF file.
Adjusts the screen resolution for bitmap images. Resolution for exported SWF files can be 72 to 600 pixels per inch (ppi). Higher resolution values result in better image quality but larger file sizes.
Specifies whether or not to animate blended objects. Selecting this option produces the same results as manually releasing blended objects to layers before you export. Blends are always animated from start to end irrespective of the layer order.
Exports each object in the blend to a separate frame in the animation.
Builds up a cumulative sequence of objects in the animation frames. For example, the bottommost object in the blend appears in each of the frames, and the topmost object in the blend appears only in the last frame.
Determines the quality and size of the JPEG file. Choose an option from the Quality menu or enter a value between 0 and 10 in the Quality text box.
Determines the color model of the JPEG file.
Select Baseline (“Standard”) to use a format recognized by most web browsers, Baseline Optimized for optimized color and a slightly smaller file size, Progressive to display a series of increasingly detailed scans (you specify how many) as the image downloads. Baseline Optimized and Progressive JPEG images are not supported by all web browsers.
Determines the resolution of the JPEG file. Choose Custom to specify a resolution.
Removes jagged edges in the artwork by supersampling it. Deselecting this option helps maintain the hard edges of line art when it is rasterized.
Generates code for image maps. If you select this option, select Client-side (.html) or Server-side (.map) to determine the type of file that is generated.
Saves ICC profiles in the JPEG file.
Determines the color model of the exported file. Exporting a CMYK document as RGB, or vice versa, may cause unexpected changes in the appearance of transparent areas, especially those that include blending modes. If you change the color model, you must export the artwork as a flat image (the Write Layers option isn’t available).
Determines the resolution of the exported file.
Merges all layers and exports the Illustrator artwork as a rasterized image. Choosing this option preserves the visual appearance of the artwork.
Exports groups, compound shapes, nested layers, and slices as separate, editable Photoshop layers. Nested layers that are more than five levels deep are merged into a single Photoshop layer. Select Maximum Editability to export transparent objects (that is, objects with an opacity mask, a constant opacity less than 100%, or a blending mode other than Normal) as live, editable Photoshop layers.
Exports horizontal and vertical point type in layers (including nested layers up to five levels deep) to editable Photoshop type. If doing so compromises the appearance of the artwork, you can deselect this option to rasterize the text instead.
Writes each top-level sublayer to a separate Photoshop layer if doing so doesn’t compromise the appearance of the artwork. Top-level layers become Photoshop layer sets. Transparent objects remain editable transparent objects. Also creates a Photoshop shape layer for each compound shape in a top‑level layer if doing so doesn’t compromise the appearance of the artwork. To write compound shapes with solid strokes, change the Join type to Round. Whether or not you select this option, all layers over 5 levels deep are merged into a single Photoshop layer. Note: Illustrator cannot export compound shapes that have graphic styles, dashed strokes, or brushes applied to them. Such compound shapes become rasterized.
Removes jagged edges in the artwork by supersampling it. Deselecting this option helps maintain the hard edges of line art when it’s rasterized.
Determines the resolution of the rasterized image. Higher resolution values result in better image quality but larger file sizes. Note: Some applications open PNG files at 72 ppi, regardless of the resolution you specify. In such applications, the dimensions of the image will be altered. (For example, artwork saved at 150 ppi will be over twice as large as artwork saved at 72 ppi.) Therefore, only change the resolution when you know the target application supports non‑72‑ppi resolutions.
Specifies a color for filling transparency. Choose Transparent to preserve transparency, White to fill transparency with white, Black to fill transparency with black, or Other to select another color for filling transparency.
Displays low-resolution versions of the image as the file downloads in a browser. Interlacing makes download time seem shorter, but also increases file size.
Determines the color model of the exported file.
Determines the resolution of the rasterized image. Higher resolution values result in better image quality but larger file sizes.
Applies LZW compression, a lossless compression method that does not discard detail from the image. Select this option to produce a smaller file.
Determines the appropriate sequence of bytes for writing the image file, based on the platform you choose. Illustrator and most recent applications can read files using the byte order for either platform. However, if you don’t know what kind of program the file may be opened in, select the platform on which the file will be read. | 2019-04-20T00:41:57Z | https://helpx.adobe.com/mt/illustrator/using/exporting-artwork.html |

Every part of NVIDIA's business is growing at a breakneck pace, and growth opportunities abound.
Shares of graphics chip company NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) rocketed 224% higher in 2016, according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence. Impressive growth in all of its major businesses -- including gaming, data center, and automotive -- in addition to optimistic growth expectations led investors to pile into the stock throughout 2016.
Shares of NVIDIA bottomed out in February, followed by a steady rise over the next eight months. NVIDIA handily beat revenue and earnings estimates when it reported earnings in February, May, and August, with its gaming business in particular proving resilient despite a weak PC market. The launch of NVIDIA's Pascal graphics cards, which currently includes the high-end GTX 1080 and GTX 1070, and the more mainstream GTX 1060, GTX 1050 Ti, and GTX 1050, was by all indications a major success.
NVIDIA's third-quarter report in November was a blowout. The company beat analyst estimates for revenue by $310 million, growing sales by nearly 54% year over year. The gaming business accelerated, producing $1.244 billion of revenue, up from just $761 million during the prior-year period. Automotive sales came in at $127 million, up 60% year over year.
The star of the show was the data center business. The data center segment generated $240 million of revenue, nearly tripling compared to the third quarter of the previous year. NVIDIA's focus on pushing its graphics cards for deep learning and artificial intelligence acceleration paid off in a big way, and the stock exploded higher as a result.
With NVIDIA now trading around 9.4 times trailing-12-month sales and 47 times earnings, investors are betting that NVIDIA can keep up its rapid growth rate. The big opportunity for NVIDIA is artificial intelligence (AI), which will require processing power that NVIDIA's graphics cards are well suited to provide. An analyst estimated in November that AI represents a $15 billion opportunity for chip companies, noting that NVIDIA is in prime position to benefit.
Whether NVIDIA can continue to grow so quickly, particularly its gaming business, which will face new competition from AMD's Vega graphics cards next year, is an open question. The growth opportunities in automotive and AI acceleration could be huge, but the stock may already be pricing them in. NVIDIA will need to deliver incredible growth in order to keep investors happy. Anything less could lead to a lackluster 2017 for the stock. | 2019-04-26T06:47:42Z | https://www.fool.com/investing/2017/01/03/why-nvidia-stock-tripled-in-2016.aspx |

Most of the Los Angeles woke up on New Year’s Day likely hungover and surprised to see that the Hollywood sign had changed its look a bit. The reactions to the stunt that changed the sign to read “Hollyweed” were mixed at best, but the alleged artist taking credit for the stunt had one purpose in mind when he did it according to The Hollywood Reporter: peace.
I did it out of love and a certain peace from within. 2016 was a rough year for a lot of people. You got hurt and then you grew. 2017 is perfect to conger up the growth. It was a very personal thing at first, and it still is. I hold it very personal. It was a personal thing and a tribute to the artist, (who did a similar stunt in 1976) the late Daniel Finegood. I felt his message speak to me and it felt like that message needed to be shared. It was honestly just a work of art, but it becomes so much more because of people’s interpretations of it. Pot art. That’s what it is. | 2019-04-26T12:16:43Z | https://uproxx.com/life/hollyweed-sign-interview/ |

He will slander her and you if you give him the chance.A Godly husband protects his wife; a Godly man protects his sister. If it is a man and they have read the Word they usually quote 1st Corinthians emphasizing the "seek not a wife" part with a pained look on there face.
But if anyone does not possess the [Holy] Spirit of Christ, he is none of His [he does not belong to Christ, is not truly a child of God]. If you are truly His son or His daughter you lay down your life and your desires and accept His will and His desires. God has a plan for you that He started before the world began and it will go on for eternity.
Ephesians 4:4-5 4 Even as [in His love] He chose us [actually picked us out for Himself as His own] in Christ before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy (consecrated and set apart for Him) and blameless in His sight, even above reproach, before Him in love.
But for you men the Word is clear that you treat women with respect and as sisters. You don't decide you like her and drive off to Lookout Point even if she wants to. You don't want the girl that is willing to break her vow before God and you are doing the same.
In fact, if you really love and respect her, you would never put her in a place where there could be even a hint of sexual immorality. He does not care that nothing has happened between you and her.
This does not mean you won't have feelings for each other but true love is not feelings alone. We as Christians are commanded to be led by the Holy Spirit, not by how we feel. | 2019-04-26T00:43:11Z | http://iamblog.ru/portfolio/4053christian-love-dating-and-marriage.html |

AM (wired DHT22) temperature-humidity sensor . DHT11 datasheet (https ://)(in chinese, so see the DHT22 datasheet too!). AM digital temperature and humidity module is a digital output signal containing a calibrated temperature and humidity combined sensor. It uses a. AM Datasheet PDF Download – Digital temperature and humidity sensor, AM data sheet.
It has been moved out into a separate document since rendering nine surfaces simultaneously proved an excessive load for some web browsers. They seem to under-promise and over-deliver, so a priori I am not expecting problems outside the specified range. The test is potentially unfair though given that they were brand new and are being compared against two-year old DHT22s and SHT Sensors were allowed to stabilise for a few hours with each solution. The intent had been to include an identical pair of sensors with and without the cover, however when my devices arrived I found the retailer had sent me HTU21s without the cover and Sis with the cover.
The devices are powered continuously, but the I2C IO lines are briefly connected to each device in turn. It worked again immediately once the humidity dropped.
All the other sensors were multiplexed onto the I2C bus. For most sensors the traces followed on rising and falling humidity are reasonably close together, showing little hysteresis bias. Second, it possibly works on an entirely different physical principle from the other sensors here. The hysteresis curve traces a tight envelope and was highly repeatable on the two cycles performed.
To show those differences in more detail I present plots for a single chemical as the temperature is systematically varied. My current supposition is that it uses a resistive film rather than a dstasheet film.
The DHT22 Sensor is factory calibrated and outputs serial data and hence it is highly easy datawheet set it up. Notes on particular sensors: In the right hand panel the lag has been arbitrarily removed and the values normalised in order to compare the intrinsic response speed of the sensor elements.
In those images, the lower die looks like a typical MEMS barometer so the upper die must presumably be the hygrometer and I am guessing that we see a pair of almost square electrodes and the device is measuring the resistence of the cracked film that spans between them. The membrane obscures ratasheet manufacturer’s mark on the left hand device, but reading the internal serial number shows it to be an Si Each of these three sensors showed advantages in one paramter or another, but given that I am only testing one example of each I cannot say if those are features of the device type or just my particular specimen.
For this reason I plot both the raw data where the AM23xx devices can all be seen to lag by one reading and also a version where that offset has been artifically removed. The absolute errors were a little larger than advertised, but repeatability was good and the thermal dependence not too severe. The large scatter of the blue points however show that the calibration degrades rapidly with varying temperature. Pin Identification and Configuration No: The DHT11 is clearly a different class of sensor with substantially lower specification and has been dropped from further investigation.
It is also the only model for which every device I own performs within specification.
The software automatically steps the temperature over a pre-defined range, allowing the readings to settle at each temperature and logging a reading to a database before stepping to the next temeperature. In summary, they appeared similar to the DHT22 most of the time, but I had so many different intermittent problems I do not intend to use these devices in future experiments.
In any case, they fulfill the manufacturer’s specified 1.
Currently I am attributing it to bad luck in my getting a couple of faulty devices rather than a systematic fault with dtasheet model. As far as I have been able to acertain, all the other devices are polymer capacitance hygrometers.
The Si is a lot slow slower than all the others, which I assume to be a deliberate design choice by the manufacturer to make the sensor insensitive to insignificant, rapid fluctuations in humidity and to better represent the wider prevailing conditions. Plots showing deviation of each device’s own temperature from the average of all nine, plotted as a function of temperature.
Figures 3 and 4 contain the same data plotted with different axes. At least the values are obviously wrong and an extra function was added to the microcontroller code to simply reject the bad data. Similarly the Sensirion SHT21 not included here also has a near identical specification and interface. At one sample per second values agreed with the polled operating mode where the device was put to sleep between readings. | 2019-04-22T13:58:51Z | http://anabolicsteroids.me/am2302-datasheet-40/ |
How did Packers Fare in Real-Time Simulated Draft?
Everyone knows that mock drafts are a dime a dozen at this time of the year. However, I had the opportunity to participate in a mock draft that attempted to ratchet up the realism by being a real-time simulation. Mock of Ages 2018 (@mockofages) brought together 44 “GMs” (some teams had more than one) to participate in a mock draft which mirrored exactly the schedule of the NFL draft (we drafted on Thursday and Friday evening as well as Saturday afternoon) as well as the opportunity to trade picks and players in real time.
The exercise both helped to give a better indication as to the strategies and communication needed for GMs on draft day and, perhaps, added some measure of authenticity that can’t be reached when one person is picking for all 32 teams.
In acting as Brian Gutekunst and co. for three days, I was joined by co-GMs @pressle54 , @sowapatch, and @internetbrando.
So how did the Green Bay Packers fare? Coming in with 12 picks, we had the ammunition to pull off several trades over the course of the draft, which I have listed below.
As you can see, we were able to sell off some mid-round picks to give ourselves a second 3rd round pick. When a number of guys that we really liked were still sitting there, we were able to move back five spots in the 3rd and pick up a 5th rounder from the Cardinals. Later in the draft, we parlayed a late 5th round pick into two 6th round picks and a young player.
Starting with 12 picks, we ended up taking 11 players. So who did we actually end up landing?
The picks before us went as follows: S. Darnold, J. Rosen, B. Mayfield, B. Chubb, R. Smith, S. Barkley, Q. Nelson, M. Fitzpatrick, H. Landry, D. James, J. Allen, D. Ward, V. Vea.
Our plan coming into the draft was to target Landry but also to be prepared to take Fitzpatrick, James, or Ward if they fell into our lap. To our surprise, all were gone by the time we picked. We were left mostly deciding between Josh Jackson and Tremaine Edmunds, the latter of which we didn’t expect to fall to 14. In the end, given the depth at CB in the draft and the freakish ceiling of Edmunds (who is only 19), we pulled the trigger on Edmunds who could come in and immediately be moved around between ILB and pass-rushing OLB.
The Packers obviously need help at corner and to rebuild for the future. Although we passed on Jackson in the first round, we were able to pick up a borderline first round talent in Hughes. He will likely play slot corner in the NFL (especially with the Packers favoring taller press corners outside), but he gives the Packers youth, speed, and versatility. Carlton Davis was still on the board here, who we also liked a lot.
Chark is often mocked in the 2nd but fell to us in the middle of the third. He gives the Packers a tall and speedy deep threat.
The Packers love to line tight ends out wide. Andrews is essentially a big bodied receiver who can learn to perfect his game behind Jimmy Graham, the archetype of the receiver tight end.
4.33 (133): Hercules Mata’afa – EDGE, Washington St.
The need at pass-rusher was perhaps slightly lessened with the versatility of Edmunds now on the roster, but the Packers still need competition for Vince Biegel, Reggie Gilbert, and Kyler Fackrell in camp. In the 4th round, Mata’afa is a project which high potential upside. Hercules played almost exclusively as an interior defensive lineman in college but is far too small to play on the defensive line in the NFL. As such, he projects to an OLB in a 3-4 defense. Can the Packers take his raw pass rushing prowess and mold him into a stand-up pass specialist? A late 4th round pick seemed worth the shot to find out.
5.2 (139): Tarvarus McFadden – CB, Florida St.
A tall, long-armed corner for depth at outside. McFadden will need to improve play speed to eventually fight for starting snaps.
Demby is exactly the sort of player that the Packers have drafted to play the interior of the offensive line for years. In college, Demby was a smart, quick-footed left tackle with long arms. The Packers will slide him inside and let him compete with Justin McCray for the starting RG spot.
Poona has a short, squatty build. He’s not an elite athlete by any stretch of the imagination, nor does he have the height that teams usually like on the defensive line. Still, he’s a gap-stuffing body who will give the Packers depth.
6.26 (200): Taron Johnson – CB, Weber St.
The rebuild at corner continues. Johnson could use a year in an NFL weight room to bulk up. He gives the Packers some depth at slot corner and a fast special teams piece.
You draft a guy like Valdes-Scantling for his measurables and then you see if your coaches can make something of him. This is a guy who is 6’5 and ran a 4.37 40. Can the Packers take that raw material and turn it into an NFL receiver? This is a boom or bust pick, but it’s the end of the 6th round.
Ferguson shares with Aaron Rodgers the history of having thrown the ball at a community college. He was a successful high school quarterback who initially signed with Tennessee. However, after breaking his tibia as a freshman, he dropped from Tennessee and spent his sophomore year as the quarterback for Coffeyville Community College before eventually signing and taking over as starter at Memphis.
Ferguson can throw down the field but his slight frame may be a concern in the NFL. He’ll be a prospect in camp, although it’ll certainly be an uphill battle to make the roster with Brett Hundley and Deshone Kizer hanging around.
Edmunds provides a potential game-changer on defense and an heir apparent to Clay Matthews as a versatile, superstar linebacker. Hughes can push for time immediately at slot corner with McFadden and Johnson adding much needed depth in the secondary.
Chark and Andrews give the offense a jolt of receiving talent. Demby will provide interior depth if not push McCray at RG in camp. The rest of the players here provide depth in camp as they struggle to make the roster.
Of course, not all holes were filled. The Packers still have questions at right tackle. We didn’t end up grabbing a safety to help fill the void left by Morgan Burnett’s departure.
What do you think? If the draft shook out exactly as above, would you be happy with Gutekunst’s first year on the job? You can see the entire draft by checking out @MockofAges.
