New Draft of BCRA Fails to Adequately Protect People with Pre-existing Conditions
Ten Patient Advocacy Organizations Respond to Release of Revised Legislative Draft
Today, the Senate released a new draft of the Better Care Reconciliation Act (BCRA), including an amendment that would allow insurance companies to offer plans not in compliance with critical patient protections in current law. Ten patient advocacy organizations, representing millions of Americans, issued the following statement today in response:
Under the amendment, insurance companies would be allowed to charge higher premiums to people based on their health status—in addition to opting out of other patient protections in current law, such as the guarantee of essential health benefits and the prohibition on annual and lifetime coverage caps. Separating healthy enrollees from those with pre-existing conditions will also lead to severe instability of the insurance market. This is unacceptable for our patients.
Even without this amendment, the revised underlying legislation would still be devastating for patients everywhere – an infant diagnosed with cystic fibrosis, a woman who has experienced postpartum depression, or an adult who develops cancer. Millions of people who battle chronic diseases or disabilities, like heart disease, lung disease, or diabetes, would be negatively impacted by this legislation. Patients need a health care bill that does not jeopardize their access to necessary treatments and care.
We urge Congress to defeat the BCRA as written and any other bill that fails to protect patients’ access to affordable, accessible, and adequate health care coverage.

Today I was reminded that sometimes, it's up to you to do the things you want in life. You can't always rely upon others. And others.. shouldn't hold you back. Get out there and do whatever you need to do!
I guess I kind of listened to my advice today =P I went out there and took some photos. It was a gorgeous night in DC especially by the Tidal Basin. It was a fun relaxing stroll and I got to take some fun photos as well. Some more photos are in the gallery.

Name: Britney Lynn Halloway
Father: John Halloway, imprisoned.
Mother: Grace Halloway, deceased.
Siblings: Kerrigan Halloway, Age 6, deceased.
City of Birth: Britain
Date of Birth: June 6th, 2001
Height: 5′ 1″
Weight: 103 lbs.
Her father John Halloway murdered her mother, her sister, and almost nearly killed her in a fit of rage when she was just 9 years old. Grace Halloway had told her own father that she wished to divorce her husband, and when he found out, all hell broke loose. When neighbors called upon the RBG to come, they found a gruesome sight. John Halloway was pressing a wire across the neck of young Britney. Arriving just in time to save Britney, the RBG pulled him off and arrested him. Tragically, they had not arrived in time to save Grace or little Kerrigan.
John Halloway was tried and found guilty of murder in the 2nd degree for the deaths of his wife and young daughter as well as guilty of the attempted murder of Britney. He was sentenced to life in prison, in Yew, without the possibility of parole.
After healing from the physical wounds, Britney was sent off to the only known orphanage that had the room to care for her, Umbra’s Orphanage. There she began a different type of healing.
– Initially shy, but then warms up.
– Very untrusting of adult males, usually.
– Gets along well with the other children in the orphanage.
– Helps to care for the little ones like she had helped to care for her sister.
– Loves to read.
– Loves the sciences.
– Likes magery.
– Looks up to the RBG.
– Might want to be a doctor.

Operation Radio Airwatch
1959 Popular Electronics
a $50,000 helicopter! You can't touch a new heli these days for
less than a quarter of a million dollars (Robinson
R22). 1959 marked the early days of helicopter traffic reports,
I'm guessing before the good noise cancellation headsets so drivers
down in the traffic snarl tuned in their AM radios and got a lot
of reporters yelling in to the microphone to overcome the rotor
chop-chop-chop noise in the background. An airborne GE unit transmitted
3 watts at 26.19 mc (MHz), and received on a triple conversion,
crystal-controlled receiver. If you look at the one photo, you'll
see a Handie-Talkie on the passenger seat.

Operation Radio Airwatch
By Morris Moses
Radio-equipped helicopter spots
Los Angeles Freeway traffic snarls
of electronic and radio communication equipment, a colorful helicopter
prowls above the traffic-congested freeway system in Los Angeles,
California. The roving whirlybird seems to be everywhere at once,
knows in an instant when safety is threatened below, and shares
this knowledge with some three million harassed drivers faster than
you can say, "turn off at the nearest intersection."
call six days a week, 24 hours a day if need be, the trim $50,000
Bell 47-H flies pilot Max Schumacher and newscaster Donn Reed 500
to 2500 feet above the jammed freeway system. Hovering at a standstill,
or cruising at 80 miles per hour, the "Operation Airwatch" team
transmits reports on traffic conditions to Radio Station KABC which
re-transmits these messages on its regular assigned frequency, 790
kc. The driving public keeps its auto radios tuned to KABC for the
latest traffic information.
Once Max and Donn spotted a little girl innocently playing with
a ball right in the middle of whizzing traffic on the Los Angeles
Harbor Freeway. Donn got on the air in about two seconds, and blurted
out a warning to the Harbor Freeway traffic. Minutes later, police
arrived and bundled the little girl off to their lost-and-found
The cockpit of the radio-equipped helicopter. Control box can
be seen mounted between two portable receivers. The standby
"Handie-Talkie" is kept on the seat.
Pilot Max Schumacher and announcer Donn Reed on the job.
Ingenious Equipment. Engineers
and technicians at KABC wanted a minimum of controls and switches
on the 'copter. Simplicity, economy, and reliability were the technical
watchwords. Even though most of the equipment is of commercial origin,
there is a feeling of radio ham ingenuity and even "homemade" simplicity
about the installation.
The link between the 'copter and
Station KABC is a commercial General Electric 15-watt FM transmitter
and receiver. Units are identical at both the fixed and mobile stations,
with the exception of power supplies. The base station is a.c.-powered
and the equipment on the 'copter is powered from its 24-volt d.c.
supply. The receiver is a G.E. superheterodyne using a triple-conversion
circuit, with each converter employing a separate crystal-controlled
Air Rescues. Police radio calls are monitored
with the aid of a converted RCA transistorized broadcast receiver.
In between routine traffic guidance, the busy whirlybird has followed
the police calls to some very unusual air-rescue adventures.
When three teenage boys and a rubber life raft were mixing it
up with the Los Angeles River, pilot Max swooped down on the youths
and helped push them ashore with a blast from the whirlybird's rotors.
Meanwhile announcer Donn gave the radio audience below a spray-by-spray
description of the rescue.
Other aircraft and landing field
towers are contacted with a Lear 108-128 mc. transceiver mounted
on the instrument panel. Pilot Max keeps an "ear" on this (as well
as on the police call channel), leaving newscaster Donn free to
study developments on the complex highway panorama stretching below.
Chats with passing aircraft often help the Airwatch crew learn about
urgent traffic situations not immediately within their vision.
DX'ing Missouri. Just in case the main
equipment should fail, a battery-operated, crystal-controlled Motorola
transceiver is always kept ready to go. This set puts out about
3 watts at 26.19 mc. and can hold out for about 40 hours of normal
operation. The Motorola was the original set used by the Airwatch,
and by some freak of transmission is often picked up by Radio Station
KFRU in Columbia, Missouri. "We have a regular ritual here of listening
to the Los Angeles Freeway helicopter reports" wrote KFRU.
Once the G.E. equipment "konked out." On went "Mickey-Mouse"

minutes after I radioed alternate routes, the freeway was so clear
of traffic you could have fired a cannon ball down it and not hit
Cruising at about 80 mph one afternoon on a routine
freeway report "mission," the radio 'copter saw the first few wisps
of suspicious-looking smoke. Where there's that kind of smoke at
that hour in Los Angeles, there's probably a fire. There was; at
a codeine factory. Airwatch reported to the KABC base at 3:50 P.M.
The station called the Fire Department. The fire was snuffed out
Following the Cars. On weekends
the radio watchbird follows seashore-bound motorists to California's
jammed beaches. Motorists are given weather reports, visibility
estimates, water and air temperatures, and advice on parking problems.
At baseball games the 'copter is always welcome, since traffic is
How does the average driver feel about
Operation Airwatch? Well, when Max and Donn asked the drivers to
turn on their lights one evening, the bumper-to-bumper caravan responded
whole-heartedly. Result: the whole freeway system was lit up like
a fantastic Christmas tree. And that's a lot of watts.

Chris Johnson made a headfirst dive into first base but was thrown out to end the game, then argued in the dugout with Atlanta coach Terry Pendleton after the Braves lost to Philadelphia 5-4 Saturday night.
The loss dropped Atlanta one game behind St. Louis for the best record in the National League. If they're tied following today's season finale, the Braves will get home-field advantage throughout the NL playoffs.
Down 5-1, the Braves rallied in the ninth on Justin Upton's three-run homer, his 27th, with two outs. Freddie Freeman singled and Evan Gattis walked to keep the rally going against Jonathan Papelbon.
Johnson hit a grounder to the hole and Phillies shortstop Jimmy Rollins made a diving stop, got up and made a one-hop throw to first baseman Darin Ruf for the final out.
When Johnson got to the dugout, Pendleton grabbed him and there were angry words before they pulled apart.
Mike Minor (13-9) took the loss after allowing two earned runs in six innings.
Philadelphia rookie Ethan Martin started and allowed a first-inning run in three innings. Fellow rookie Luis Garcia (1-1) pitched two innings of scoreless relief to pick up the win.
The NL East champion Braves committed two of their three errors in the seventh as Philadelphia added two runs with the help of a wild pitch by reliever Jordan Walden.
Hernandez put a bunt down the first-base line on the game's first pitch for a single, and Rollins followed with a double on the second pitch by Minor. They scored on Rupp's single.

I was fascinated throughout and didn't want to put it down. Weil überraschend die Straßenbau- und Verkehrsordnung eines dritten Landes den größten Einfluss auf das Verbleiben des Essländers in Mussland ausübte, musste auch für diesen Aspekt Raum geschaffen werden. Oceanographers and the Cold War is about patronage, politics, and the community of scientists. a personal peek into her life,. Excerpt from The Blind Knight of Nova Scotia, Sir Frederick Fraser, 1850-1925: Free Education for the Blind, 1882; Free Postage for Braille Books, 1889Charles Frederick Fraser, Doctor Fraser or Sir Frederick Fraser, was a household name for over fifty years in Nova Scotia. Download book Disney Princess - Dream Big Princess Me Reader And 8-Book Library - Pi Kids Pdf Epub. Available for the first time as a complete novel—the serial from the New York Times bestselling author that explores the dynamics of power and sex between two people who set the rules of desire…only to shatter them. Their ancestors were to rise from the dead, reclaim their lands and restore it to its natural state, as it was prior to the intrusion of the white man. Also the recovery of the Bishop was not too believable. But the real thrust of this book is not about proving hell or the nature of hell at all.

Disney Princess - Dream Big Princess Me Reader And 8-Book Library - Pi Kids reviews:
My daughter has given up her tablet for these books! I love how while listening to the story, she can also learn, recognize and match the shapes and colors of the symbols on each page....
It was challenging not to jump to the index and read these first. I just finished Bonnie Compton’s new parenting book. I think the villains are a bit more interesting this time around. As an instructor, I use the book to reinforce what I am teaching. She is a noted international speaker and author of numerous books includin. God’s Holy Spirit is ready to answer that for us in an awesome way, as Henry Blackaby and his son Mel Blackaby make clear in Experiencing the Spirit. He has a loving wife, Michelle and two beautiful girls.

There is a common mistake for math students confusing and thinking that mathematical skills is overly the same as the mathematical concepts. Basically, skills and concepts are two different things are always working together. It is where you fathom and acknowledge how basic math concepts and skills relate that you will be able to manage and successful handle mathematical education and challenges. First and foremost, you need to discover more on what math skills are and what math concepts are. When defining math skills, it is appropriate to refer to them as mastered mathematical actions. These skills are progressively enhanced through practice. Math concepts can also be defined as the mathematical perceptions, ideas or theories. A mathematician has to understand these ideas. These mathematical theories are learned. Throughout this article, you will come across reliable info about the relationship between math theories and math skills.
It is through focusing on skills that mathematical training becomes effective. Therefore, a teacher will always test your skills through examinations as they ask you to handle a particular mathematical question through using certain concepts. Your skills help determine whether you are capable of applying the learned math concepts. There is need to understand these skills and the teacher will also examine whether you have mastered them through testing your abilities or skills.
Generally, you can reserve and acknowledge all mathematical theories or concepts but this can never be said about the skills as you can lose them at any time. Skills demand that you exercise due diligence and be keen as you can easily lose them. There is need for practice. The time you practice your skills, you will always elevate and enhance your math theories understanding. The moment you abhor practicing this skill is the very moment you will forget and lose it entirely. Concepts don’t work like skills as you can learn a concept today and keep understanding and remembering it forever.
Both mathematical skills and concepts are progressive. The very moment you learn new mathematical perceptions is the very moment you will advance and elevate your skills. The brain is always set and overly ready to embrace new info that you have learnt. Where you are taught new math concepts, you will also be able to master concepts and eventually enhance your abilities or skills.
the last but not the least, basic math skills and concepts are helpful in excelling through your education. There is need to understand how skills help and how concepts help as well as far as mathematics is concerned. Through skills or abilities, you will have an answer of how to tackle mathematical questions. For instance, you might be aware of BODMAS but if you lack skills, you might fail solving an equation miserably.
It’s fundamental that you understand these math skills and concepts appropriately and articulately. It is through these learning these math concepts that you advance and amplify your math skills. It is alluringly imperative that you acquire more info about the relationship between math skills and concepts.

At Queens, we aim to deliver a high-quality learning environment that embeds intellectual curiosity, innovation and best practice in learning, teaching and student support, to enable you to achieve your full academic potential.
On the BA in Social Anthropology we do this by providing a range of learning experiences which enable our students to engage with subject experts, develop attributes and perspectives that will equip them for life and work in a global society and make use of innovative technologies and a world class library that enhances their development as independent, lifelong learners. Examples of the opportunities provided for learning on this course:
- Lectures: introduce basic information about new topics and outline theoretical and methodological concepts as a starting point for further study. Lectures may also provide opportunities to ask questions, and receive advice on assessments.
Degree Plus and other related initiatives: Recognising student diversity, as well as promoting employability enhancements and other interests, is part of the developmental experience at Queens. Students are encouraged to plan and build their own, personal skill and experiential profile through a range of activities including; recognised Queens Certificates, placements and other work experiences (at home or overseas), Erasmus study options elsewhere in Europe, learning development opportunities and involvement in wider university life through activities, such as clubs, societies, and sports.
Queens actively encourages this type of activity by offering students an additional qualification, the Degree Plus Award (and the related Researcher Plus Award for PhD and MPhil students). Degree Plus accredits wider experiential and skill development gained through extra-curricular activities that promote the enhancement of academic, career management, personal and employability skills in a variety of contexts. As part of the Award, students are also trained on how to reflect on the experience(s) and make the link between academic achievement, extracurricular activities, transferable skills and graduate employment. Participating students will also be trained in how to reflect on their skills and experiences and can gain an understanding of how to articulate the significance of these to others, e.g. employers.
Overall, these initiatives, and Degree Plus in particular, reward the energy, drive, determination and enthusiasm shown by students engaging in activities over-and-above the requirements of their academic studies. These qualities are amongst those valued highly by graduate employers.
- Seminars/tutorials: Significant amounts of teaching are carried out in small groups (rarely more than 15 students). The majority of seminars and tutorials are taught by permanent members of the academic staff. Such small-group teaching provides opportunities for students to engage with active researchers who have specialist knowledge of the topic, to ask questions and to assess their own progress and understanding with the support of peers. Students should also expect to make presentations and other contributions to these groups.
- E-Learning technologies: Most information associated with lectures and assignments is communicated via a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) called Queens Online. A range of e-learning experiences are also embedded in the degree, through (e.g.) interactive group workshops, online discussions, and web-based learning activities.
- Self-directed study: This is an important part of life as a Queens student, when private reading, engagement with e-learning resources, reflection on feedback to date, and research and preparation work for assignments is carried out. Academic staff will provide tailored bibliographies for research projects and self-directed reading.
- Work-Related learning/Field Trips: Students have a variety of opportunities to participate in work-related learning and field trips; there are also meetings with alumni to advise students on opportunities for graduate employment.
- Supervised projects and dissertations: In final year, students have the opportunity to undertake these. If they do so, they receive support from a supervisor who guides them in terms of how to carry out research and who will provide feedback on drafts of work. All supervision is undertaken by permanent members of staff, many of whom are world-class experts in their field.
- Personal Tutor: Every undergraduate has a Personal Tutor who is a member of the academic staff. The Personal Tutor meets with his/her students throughout their academic career and provides advice on personal development, employment opportunities, and their general progress through university.
Our graduates have found our degree life-enhancing and intellectually challenging. It has given them a good grounding in a multitude of workplaces, and is attractive to employers as it indicates an ability to closely analyse cultural and social issues and develop coherent arguments in written and verbal form. Moreover, the subject matter studied in pursuit of an anthropology degree is invariably related to a wide range of contemporary issues, and shows that social, political and economic processes developing in the present need be understood in a proper cross-cultural perspective.
Employers of all kinds wish to employ the social anthropology graduates who have developed their employability skills and have sought work experience beyond the university. There is an awareness throughout the School of History and Anthropology that students need every opportunity to engage with employability issues, and we work very closely with the Careers Service in order to achieve this.
Graduates from this degree at Queens are thus well regarded by many employers (local, national and international) and over half of all graduate jobs are now open to graduates of any discipline, including Social Anthropology.
Although the majority of our graduates are interested in pursuing careers in Social and Community Development work, significant numbers develop careers in a wide range of other sectors. The following is a list of the major career sectors (and some starting salaries) that have attracted our graduates in recent years:
- Management Consultancy: £20,000 - £30,000
- Voluntary Sector/ Charities: £15,000 - £18,000
- Advertising: £25,000 - £40,000
- Publishing, Media and Performing Arts: £16,000 - £25,000
- Fast Stream Civil Service: £25,000
- Varied graduate programmes (Times Top 100 Graduate Recruiters/ AGR, Association of Graduate Recruiters UK)
Employer Links Consultations: We regularly consult and develop links with a large number of employers via the School of History and Anthropologys Employers Forum. Members of this forum include senior figures from: the Northern Ireland Civil Service; PricewaterhouseCoopers; the British Council; Bank of Ireland; Chambre Public Affairs; and from the NGO sector such as Arts Care and the NI Institute for Conflict Research.

Aki Hoshide immortalized a bright sunny day of 2012 during which he and NASA astronaut Sunita Williams (visible in the reflections of Hoshide's helmet visor) underwent a session of extravehicular activity outside the International Space Station
Early science results from NASA’s Juno mission to Jupiter portray the largest planet in our solar system as a complex, gigantic, turbulent world, with Earth-sized polar cyclones, plunging storm systems that travel deep into the heart of the gas giant, and a mammoth, lumpy magnetic field that may indicate it was generated closer to the planet’s surface than previously thought
The aim of the top-secret project A119 was to detonate a nuclear bomb on the Moon. The flash of explosive light would have been faintly visible to people on Earth with their naked eye; an US show of force after the Soviet Union took an early lead in the Space Race
The acceleration of the object equals the gravitational acceleration in vacuum. The mass, size, and shape of the object are not a factor in describing the motion of the object. So all objects, regardless of size or shape or weight, free fall with the same acceleration. Thus in a vacuum, a beach ball falls at the same rate as an airliner!
In 2002, astronomers Karl Glazebrook and Ivan Baldry from Johns Hopkins University (Baltimore, USA) determined that the color of the universe was a slightly beige-ish white. The survey included more than 200,000 galaxies, and measured the spectral range of the light from a large volume of the universe. The hexadecimal RGB value for Cosmic Latte is #FFF8E7

After another superb SteelCon filled with awesome talks and awesome people, I thought I'd give a quick update on the event and on the Charity Sticker Stand I ran.
SteelCon has been a truly outstanding conference since it started in 2014 and celebrated it's fourth and largest event this year. Tickets sold out in minutes when they were released, all 450 of them! This is a testament to the great work that the organisers and support staff put in. This year was the first year that the conference offered commercial training and as usual had the free workshops for attendees the day before the conference. You can check out the other awesome events on their site like the before party, the after party, all of the great talks and the entertainment with laser tag included on Sunday! What I want to talk about though is the Charity Sticker Stand that I ran.
Stickers for Charity
Casually dubbed 'Lord Helmet's Sticker Emporium' by the conference organisers my goal was simple. SteelCon raises money for charity as part of the conference and last year they raised a pretty good total of almost £800. I started the 'SteelCon Whip Round' with Jess at the after party last year with the goal of pushing us through the £1,000 barrier to 4 digits and it turns out people are pretty generous after a drink or two! The final total was over £1,500 which was double what we started out with! I wanted to see us beat that total again this year and came up with the idea for a sticker stand where people could bring their laptops, donate to charity and kit it out with stickers. To do that though I needed stickers, lots and lots of stickers, and that's where all of the awesome vendors I contacted came to the rescue.
Initially I had no idea how well this idea would be received so I started reaching out to vendors and was quickly surprised and pleased by how willing they all were to help out. With a brief explanation of the idea and what I wanted to do, most were already asking for my address to post some swag! The first two batches were awesome.
Once the idea gained some traction a few others gathered swag from their companies and partners and before long we were well on our way to having some serious merchandise to put on the stand. Things were looking good.
The Big Day
I arrived at the conference early and waited for the venue to open with a few of the organisers and those running other stands. Once we got in the race was on to setup before attendees started arriving. I didn't get any pictures of the setup process, but I did get plenty throughout the day. Registration opened early at 08:30, long before the opening speech at 10:00, and the rush began!
Thanks to Chris Ratcliff for most of the awesome photos you see, he's also the conference photographer and he rocks. I also grabbed a few shots off Twitter too!
Because the stand was up and running early on it was open all the way through registration and up to the opening speech for the conference. Robin (the main organiser) asked for a total of what we'd raised so far as the stand had actually been pretty busy, a lot more so than I expected. Before the conference even kicked off the stand had raised over £500 for charity!! Donations continued through the day and it was consistently busy in the breaks and at lunch, I think it's fair to say it was a success.
The whole idea wouldn't have been possible without the many vendors who were willing to donate and support so a massive thanks is due to them. In no particular order, and I sure hope I mention everyone, here they are:
Hak5 (Darren Kitchen)
Imperva Incapsula (Ofer Gayer)
Cloudflare (Filippo Valsorda)
Caddy (Matt Holt)
ZAP (Simon Bennetts)
Hacker House (Hacker Fantastic)
Track JS (Todd Gardner)
John the Ripper
Octopus Deploy (Damian Brady)
I'm bound to have missed someone (sorry!) so please do let me know and I will get the list updated.
For now, I just want to say a massive thanks to all of the vendors, to everyone that helped me out because without all of you, we wouldn't have raised our amazing total for charity on the day:
See you next year SteelCon :-D

Derek Jeter has been wearing No. 2 for the Yankees since he was called up as a 21-year-old shortstop in 1995. His Majestic Athletic jersey remains the most popular choice among fans throughout Major League Baseball.
"It always feels good any time the fans respect how you play," Jeter said. "It's never something you think about, but you definitely take it as a huge compliment."
MLB and the MLB Players Association on Wednesday jointly announced the 20 top-selling jerseys of 2010 based on Majestic sales, and Jeter topped the list, followed in order by Twins catcher Joe Mauer and then three Phillies: Roy Halladay, Chase Utley and Cliff Lee. In Lee's case, it also included sales of his Mariners and Rangers jersey during the 2010 season.

I have a problem with Daslight 4 when I use it with a tactil screen.
Whenever the tactil function of my screen is on (usb of the screen connected to the computer) Daslight slows down drasticly. Every operation by click takes several seconds to respond. I looked it up, it appears to cause full CPU.
The oddest thing is that nothing else is slowed down but daslight.
Windows works perfectly and every other app works just fine.
When trying to use the mouse while the tactil screen is connected, the same thing happen. Everything take from one to five seconds to respond.
All it takes is to deconnect the USB cable from the screen, restart Daslight and everything is back to normal.
I then thought it was a problem with my screen in particular, a HANNS.G HT Series HT161HNB .
So I borrowed one from a friend, a 22'' DELL.
But it does something quite similar, eventhough the whole thing is a tiny bit faster.
The most obvious is when trying to swich from ''patch'' to ''Edit'' or to ''Live'' (left hand buttons) ... or clicking on the fullscreen mode in the ''show'' page. It takes up to 7 seconds for the page to change. Meanwhile, the whole app freeezes.
Does anyone have the same thing happening ?
Thanks a lot

I am curious to throw this discussion out there. In an issue of Supply Management magazine there was post about establishing a licence to practise as a procurement professional. Very advocated for by CIPS CEO David Noble. Yes this would be in the same way lawyers have a licence. The post was specific to the UK, argument being that the profession would attract the best talent and the profession would be well recognised.
Procurement would also rise in profile and also overall performance would be notable.
I had never thought of licensing needs for Procurement, what are your thoughts?

Securities Arbitration & Litigation
We have a 25-year track record of winning cases that can be matched by few firms of our size. With a dedicated focus on the financial services arena, we represent broker-dealers, registered representatives and other industry participants in a broad spectrum of securities disputes in court and in FINRA arbitration. Our founding partner has personally tried approximately 150 FINRA arbitrations and has a lengthy record of success in those matters that have been tried to verdict. Our founding partner has also litigated sales practice disputes of virtually every type, encompassing a wide variety of products, including equities, fixed income, options, commodities, mutual funds, hedge funds, limited partnerships, real estate investment trusts and structured products, as well as clearing disputes.
As a boutique law firm, we avoid many of the conflicts faced by larger law firms. This flexibility enables us to represent both large and small firms, along with claims in which one broker-dealer is adverse to another. Our founding partner is a former prosecutor and branch manager for several large brokerage firms, and formerly served as in-house counsel for three large NYSE-member broker-dealers. This in-the-trenches experience provides unique insight to our advocacy.

When I laid the first 3 houses together, they looked good without sashing so I decided to sew them together.
House #4 almost done.
House #5 and 6 all cut and waiting to be pieced.
Fabrics for houses 7,8 and 9 waiting to be cut.
Pile of leftover scraps to be put away.
Don't think I will finish this quilt by tomorrow for the UFO challenge but hopefully this weekend. I think there will be a lot of free-motion quilting once the top is complete. Still need to decide whether I want to add borders and make it lap size or make it a wallhanging. The quilt will be roughly 48 inches without borders.

The rural soundscape of Warbler’s Roost has joined the “Open Microphone” network of soundscape broadcast streams at Locusonus. I encourage you to explore their sound map of live streams from around the world.
My contribution is an element of a larger research project called The Absent Listener. The goal of which is to build a portable soundscape streaming and compositional tool for creating a long form soundscape composition. My research project is funded by the Canada Council for the Arts.
The soundscape from Warbler’s Roost is best characterized as a northern rural soundscape. This winter has had more snow than usual. There are a number of rabbit and red squirrel tracks around the area of the microphone. Ravens often fly overhead. Currently the location is near one of the houses, so there will be some residual human noises until I am able to build an off the grid power solution. Where there is power, there will be people.
You can listen here:
Situations superposées is the name of my new Digital release on the empreintes DIGITALes label. It includes three soundscape works –
… while working and walking, River Valley Snapshots, and Bats & Elephants. Many thanks to empreintes DIGITALes, the Canada Council for the Arts, and the Ontario Arts Council for their generous support. Also, I am grateful to Hector Centeno and Matt Miller for their specialized assistance through the unique recording process undertaken for this downloadable album.
Last August I had the opportunity to present a new performance installation at Electric Eclectics. It completed a new series of works called Hidden Sounds. Here is a video taken by James Bailey at Electric Eclectics:
My audio recording of Moose during mating season is available on Radio Aporee. Radio Aporee is a great resource for exploring soundscapes from around the world. This recording was recorded at Warbler’s Roost. More soundscape recordings can be heard at Warbler’s Roost.
Creating a new fixed media piece for the Now Hear This! Festival in Edmonton.
Some updates on the Ultrasonicmobile performance system.
Fishing for Sounds installation on exhibit at White Water Gallery in North Bay, Ontario.
Living in a rural soundscape allows for more space for listening to the natural soundscape. There are some examples of recordings that have been made at my home on the Warbler’s Roost webpage.
You can listen to a recent example of my research into ultrasonic recording using the MEMS ultrasonic microphone array by Dodotronic along with a customized software and hardware for real-time transposition which is designed by Hector Centeno.

Darren Copeland is at work on recording and mixing a new DVD release for empreintes DIGITALes. He is working with Hector Centeno and Matt Miller on making ambisonic recordings using Audio Spotlight directional speakers as well as computerized spatialization using the NAISA Spatialization System. The DVD release entitled In Situ will feature stereo and 5.1 Surround mixes of these recordings. Here is an example:
July 26, 2014
Darren Copeland is doing a senior production artist residency at Paved Arts. While in Saskatoon he has been creating a new piece for the Sounds Like Festival to be premiered on July 26. His new piece called Three Places combines soundscape recordings from Toronto, Sarnia and Brampton. It also integrates his multichannel spatialization with the Audio Spotlight directional speaker. Sounds Like has a fantastic line up of artists for the festival taking place – you can read about it on their tumbler page.
June 26, 2014
Darren Copeland, Matt Miller, and Hector Centeno performed Darren Copeland’s piece Underwater Soundspin which was performed using 3 Audio Spotlight directional speakers in an outdoor parking space. The performance was part of Art Spin, a unique performance and art tour where the audience cycles from location to location experiencing site-specific artworks planned as part of the tour. See the photo reel on their website for details.
May 31 to June 29, 2014
Copeland+Kahre unveil their new outdoor sound sculpture SIT/COM at the CAFKA Contemporary Art Forum from May 31 to June 29 in Victoria Park in Kitchener. This also coincides with the Open Ears festival.
SIT/COM is an interactive audio installation sited at the nexus between social and natural acoustic space. The work is an extension of the artists’ ongoing research in acoustic ecology and collaborative practice of works that engage the effects of human development on the acoustic environment, particularly on the underwater domain.
SIT/COM uses tactile speaker technology to create an immersive experience of human and non-human soundscapes, centered around a sculptural object that acts as a sonic hub. The work uses underwater recordings from the Grand River as a matrix for human interactions that are recorded and reconfigured by the software component of the work. The ‘bench’ is a sinuous sculptural object that reflects the shape of the river and offers a number of ways to engage with the acoustic environment.
To learn more about the team of Copeland+Kahre visit their website.
On Jan 31 in New York City at Harvestworks studio Darren Copeland will present a performance/talk detailing spatialization practices that have been undertaken at New Adventures in Sound Art (NAISA) in Toronto since 1998. Through performing his own works and works by other Canadian artists, he will demonstrate and discuss two contrasting approaches to performance spatialization used by NAISA. For more info go to the Harvestworks website.

Harvard's theatrical troupe,Hasty Pudding, roasted their Woman of the Year, Helen Mirren, and celebrated with a parade through Cambridge, Mass. During the roast, Mirren joked about her fellow actors Harrison Ford, who she called the "hottest actor she ever worked with," and Meryl Streep, who would win in a fight. Said Mirren, "Streep's bigger and stronger physically and mentally than I am.

I'm not sure how stable that would be even if it did work. Maybe if you treated it with a textile medium?
I do know that there is a textile medium called bubble jet set that allows you to put a treated piece of fabric through your printer (ironed onto freezer paper first). This image (if you follow the instructions) is then permanently set on the fabric. It isn't a transfer however.

Noting the recent surge of anti-Semitic activities across the nation, including more than 160 bomb threats to Jewish institutions in 37 states, on Thursday, U.S. Rep. Vern Buchanan, R-Fla., announced he was joining the Bipartisan Taskforce to Combat Anti-Semitism.
Buchanan, who co-chairs the Florida delegation, is one of the more prominent congressional representatives from the Sunshine State, sitting on the House Budget and the Ways and Means Committees. On Thursday, he explained why he was joining the taskforce.
“I’m deeply troubled by anti-Semitic activity across the country and in my home state,” Buchanan said. “These growing threats against the Jewish faith cannot be tolerated. A bipartisan response is crucial to address this alarming rise in anti-Semitic acts.”
Buchanan noted that his own district was impacted with the Jewish Federation of Sarasota-Manatee beefing up its security.
“Congress must be clear: attacks against the Jewish faith are unacceptable,” Buchanan said.
Buchanan has been active on the issue, signing on congressional letters to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, the U.S. Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBIs) urging them to investigate the bomb threats to Jewish Community Centers.
The congressman’s efforts won the applause of a prominent leader of his district’s Jewish community.
“In this frightening time with growing anti-Semitism in the United States, we are proud to be able to thank our local congressman, Vern Buchanan, for joining in this bipartisan effort to work towards ensuring the safety of the Jewish Community,” said Howard Tevlowitz, the executive director of the Jewish Federation of Sarasota-Manatee.
The taskforce defines its mission as working “to ensure that Congress plays an integral role in condemning anti-Semitism and spearheading initiatives that promote tolerance worldwide...to serve as a forum for educating members on this distinct form of intolerance and to engage with the administration, foreign leaders and civil society organizations to share best practices and collaborate on solutions to rebuff this systemic problem” and working to “promote Holocaust remembrance in concert with exploring innovative ways to teach tolerance and confront hate.”
The group was co-founded back in 2015 and was relauched last month. U.S. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, R-Fla., the chairwoman of the U.S. House Middle East and North Africa Subcommittee, and U.S. Rep. Ted Deutch, D-Fla., the ranking Democrat on the subcommittee, are two of the co-chairs of the task force. Other co-chairs include Republican U.S. Reps. Kay Granger of Texas, Peter Roskam of Illinois and Chris Smith of New Jersey and Democratic U.S. Reps. Eliot Engel and Nita Lowey of New York and Marc Veasey of Texas. More than 100 members of Congress from both parties had been part of the task force over the past two years.

Teenage Australia debutant Ashton Agar fell agonisingly short of becoming the first Test match No 11 to score a century as he frustrated England with a record-breaking 98 on the second day of the Ashes opener at Trent Bridge on Thursday.
It seemed England would have a commanding first innings lead as Australia collapsed to 117 for nine in reply to the Ashes-holders' first innings 215.
But 19-year-old Agar went on to make the highest score by any Test No 11, surpassing Tino Best's 95 for the West Indies against England at Edgbaston last year.
Together with fellow left-hander Phil Hughes (81 not out), Agar shared a 10th wicket Test record partnership of 163 to take Australia to 280.
That topped the previous last wicket record stand of 151 held jointly by Brian Hastings and Richard Collinge for New Zealand against Pakistan at Auckland in 1972/73 and Azhar Mahmood and Mushtaq Ahmed for Pakistan against South Africa at Rawalpindi in 1997/98.
Left-arm paceman Mitchell Starc then followed up by taking two wickets in successive balls to leave England floundering at 11 for two.
But England captain Alastair Cook (37 not out) and Kevin Pietersen (35 not out) rebuilt the innings with an unbroken stand of 69 that left the hosts 80 for two at stumps -- a lead of 15 runs.
Australia resumed Thursday on 75 for four, a deficit of 140 runs, after an overcast first day where seamer Peter Siddle rocked England with five for 50.
But Thursday saw sunshine and blue skies which promised better batting conditions for Steven Smith, 38 not out overnight, and Hughes.
James Anderson, who on Wednesday had gone past England fast bowling great Fred Trueman's record of 307 Test wickets, made the breakthrough Thursday.
Smith, driving loosely at Anderson, gaining reverse-swing, was caught behind by wicket-keeper Matt Prior for 53.
This was the start of an Australia collapse that saw five wickets lost for nine runs.
Agar did survive a desperately close stumping appeal from Prior off spinner Graeme Swann on six, with Australia then 131 for nine -- 84 runs adrift -- as third umpire Marais Erasmus eventually ruled in his favour.
Agar, a shock selection for this Test after playing just 10 first-class matches for Western Australia with a highest score of 71 not out, then cashed in with shots reminiscent of India's Yuvraj Singh including two magnificent straight sixes off Swann.
But, in sight of a century, Agar -- recently playing club cricket for southern English side Henley -- pulled Stuart Broad to Swann at deep midwicket to end a two-and-quarter hour innings of 101 balls including 12 fours and two sixes.
Anderson starred for England with five for 70, his 14th haul of five or more wickets in an innings in 83 Tests.
England then saw Joe Root caught down the legside by wicketkeeper Brad Haddin off Starc and next ball Jonathan Trott was given not out by Pakistani umpire Aleem Dar after a raucous lbw appeal.
Australia reviewed the decision and, with the technology at his disposal not detecting an edge, Erasmus instructed the decision be reversed.
Trott was stunned and later the 'snicko' system, not yet used by third umpires because of the length of time it takes, revealed a thin nick.
Tea was then taken with England 11 for two, a deficit of 54 runs, and Starc on a hat-trick.
But Pietersen survived the hat-trick immediately after the resumption as Starc bowled a wayward delivery.
Cook and Pietersen carefully -- this was only the second day after all -- repaired the damage.
Agar, in his primary role as a left-arm spinner, saw Pietersen, on 25, edge him into Haddin's pads.
But next ball Pietersen cover-drove Agar, originally added to the squad as a 'development' player for just the first two Tests, to the boundary as the bowler found wickets harder to come by than runs.

A recent study in the United Kingdom found that a significant number of diabetes-related medical errors in nursing homes were reported to the National Reporting and Learning System between 2005 and 2009. The vast majority of errors involved insulin followed by oral hypoglycemic agents. The main error type was the administration of the wrong dose.1
The ISMP and others have provided observations and recommendations to ensure a smooth and safe transition from acute care to nursing home–level care.
Given the overlap in type of care delivery between nursing homes and hospitals, many of the same elements that would improve care delivery in hospitals could apply to the nursing home setting. The increased challenge for nursing home patients is the different level of staffing seen in nursing homes.

Lady Raiders Sweep Scottsbluff
SIDNEY – The Sidney Lady Raiders improved to 15-3 on the season with a sweep of Western Conference foe Scottsbluff Tuesday night at the Cabela’s Athletic Facility. Sidney out hit the Bearcats 41-24 on the way to a 25-19, 25-19, 25-23 win.
The Bearcats jumped out to an early 6-1 lead in the first set, but Sidney quickly tied the game at 6-6 on a pair of kills each from Karsyn Leeling and Gabby Fortner. The teams battled back and forth with seven more ties, that last time at 18-18. The Lady Raiders reeled off the next six points and finished with another Leeling kill for the 25-19 win.
Sidney’s four early service errors kept the Bearcats in the second set as the game was tied eight times, the last at 11-11. A 6-1 run by the Lady Raiders fueled by kills from four different attackers opened a 17-12 cushion for Sidney. The Lady Raiders followed that with another 6-1 run to win the set 25-19.
Sidney dominated early in the third set, exploding to a 22-11 lead. Scottsbluff rallied behind a strong block and several Sidney hitting errors to cut the Lady Raider lead to 23-19. After a Leeling kill gave Sidney a 24-19 advantage, the Bearcats survived four match-points before Sidney completed the sweep at 25-23.
Sidney was led by Chloe Ahrens with 12 kills. Karsyn Leeling added nine kills and Kayla Westby 8 kills on the night. The Bearcats were led by the eight kills of Paige Horne.
Both teams are in action this weekend at the Twin City Tournament in Scottsbluff and Gering. Pool play begins on Friday with Sidney in a pool with Rapid City Central, Chadron, and Crete.

We should have seen this one coming. After Android L’s revamped keyboard was ripped from a developer preview and repackaged for use with older Android builds, Google has pulled it from the Play Store. The app, which as a rip straight from Android L was far from the original creation of developer Shen Ye, was found to violate certain aspects of Google’s Developer Distribution Agreement.
What is really surprising is just how long it actually took for Google to take action. The Android L Keyboard had amassed 800,000 downloads since it appeared on Google Play shortly after last month’s Google I/O keynote.
Google currently offers their own Google Keyboard via the Play Store, and app which is more or less the same as Ye’s Android L Keyboard minus the Android L updates, particularly the Material Design theme. This surely isn’t the last we will see of the Android L Keyboard, however. For rooted users and those willing to side-load an APK, distribution channels outside of Google Play shouldn’t be too hard to track down.

Coalition launches petition demanding that Amazon drop DRM from the Kindle
BOSTON, Massachusetts, USA -- Monday, August 3rd, 2009 -- The Free Software Foundation's DefectiveByDesign.org campaign, in cooperation with prominent authors, journalists, and librarians, has launched a petition against the Amazon Kindle's use of digital restrictions management (DRM).
"The freedom to read without supervision or interference is central to a free society," said FSF executive director Peter Brown. "When ebook products like the Kindle use DRM to restrict what users can do with their books, that is a clear threat to the free exchange of ideas."
Signatories to the petition include prominent academic and industry names like Creative Commons and Change Congress co-founder Lawrence Lessig; author, poet and MacArthur Fellow Lewis Hyde; Harvard Law Professor and Vice Dean for Library and Information Resources John Palfrey; and Christopher Hayes, Washington, DC editor for The Nation. The petition, published at http://defectivebydesign.org/amazon1984, is now open for others to add their signatures as well.
"The level of control Amazon has over their ebooks conflicts with basic freedoms that we take for granted," said Palfrey. "In a future where books are sold with digital restrictions, it will be impossible for libraries to guarantee free access to human knowledge."
On the heels of disabling the text-to-speech feature on many ebooks, Amazon drew even further wide-ranging criticism for the remote deletion of Ayn Rand novels and two George Orwell books (Animal Farm and 1984) from the devices of hundreds of users.
Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos apologized for the deletions, saying that Amazon would handle such situations differently in the future. But so far no substantive changes have been made.
"Amazon should never have had this power to begin with, and imposing it broke promises they had previously made. The only dependable way to preserve people's rights to free thinking and free expression is for Amazon to remove their DRM," said FSF operations manager John Sullivan.
Additional comments from signers
"This incident shows that the law gives radically more control to the company than it ought to." --Lawrence Lessig, author and Harvard Law professor
"Any time someone puts a lock on something you own without your permission, they're not acting in your interests." --Cory Doctorow, author and blogger
"Our future needs Orwell's books, but it does not need Orwell's predictions." --Evan Katsamakas, assistant professor in the School of Business at Fordham University
"You shouldn't need a license to read." --Lewis Hyde, author, poet and MacArthur Fellow

what people are saying...
Vered’s classes are varied, challenging yet approachable. Each class has a dynamic of its own, no two classes are alike. She is very sensitive, pays close attention to each individual and spot imperfections, taking the time to get each motion and position exactly right. Vered has a deep understanding of the structure and goal of each exercise, which she shares and teaches. She helps people push beyond their perceived limits by gently helping in critical positions. Above all it is clear that yoga is a great passion for her, making her classes a spiritual experience as well.
Edna & Yaron K.
Since I have started practicing with Vered I feel calmer, more patient and much more relaxed. I enjoy waking up in the mornings and coming to her 6am classes. After the classes I feel much happier and less stressed at work and Coming home, I'm more relaxed with my kids . In addition, I feel that my body is getting stronger and that my muscles are being nicely challenged. I feel very lucky being your student.
Thank you for coming to speak at our JFCS (Jewish Family and Children's Services) intern workshop. Your insight of self care, relaxation and even Judaism in unexpected places were so interesting to hear about and really enriched our experience. Practicing yoga in the middle of the work week was such a welcome change for us to relax before work and before the intern graduation. Learn how to do headstands was so fun too! We really appreciate you taking the time to come speak, we got so much out of it. Thank you for providing a very unique and very significant workshop.
JFCS, July 2018
Your tenderness and your positive spirit , your exact demonstrations along with your instructions and constant observation, made my experience an excellent one. After your classes I feel complete calm, well worked and overall I experience my body was well stretched and open for a new day.
I appreciate vered's structure of class. she first find out how her students are feeling physically, and how we can adjust the exercise to benefit us and our bodies. she helps position her students by using "hands-on" approach-- that way we can feel how the yoga position is supposed to feel on our bodies. Vered takes the time to help her students achieve their maximum potential and gain building blocks for the "future" ability of being able to get into a specific yoga positions. She explains the benefits of the positions we are working on, which encourages me to try it .I love that she ends the class with the meditation and relaxation, it relaxes me and my muscles as well as centers me. My body works and feels better after her class! I have attended and done other yoga classes in the past, but I gained the most from her classes!! her encouragement and teaching style make it possible for me to do yoga and appreciate it!
Thank you for the class today! I want to share with you that thanks to your yoga classes my body was coping much better and ready for the ski season this year. I felt stronger and more energetic. My muscles didn't strain as before. As someone who use to practice for twenty years until two years ago, I am grateful for opening your new studio and for your classes. Also, thank you for the sense of Yoga that you are brought back to me. My body and myself are thanking you.
Vered's classes are intimate, personal and very professional. They provide a systemic process, unique to each class. There is a connecting thread between classes, but this is not done in a ridged way, but rather a flexible one. During class there is a calming and a very welcoming atmosphere. I feel how my body is doing the work without over straining. After class, even if I came in tired or tense, I feel healthy and much more relaxed. Through these classes I understand how Yoga is so good for body, mind and soul. Vered is a very professional, honest, calm, flexible, smart and caring teacher. She listens to our requests and asks questions about our needs and wishes before each class. She shares her thoughts and plans before each class as well, and then brings the two together. Vered always makes sure we are safe and doing each posture correctly. If one of the people practicing is injured or feels pain in some place she will always explain how to do a certain posture in a tailor made safe way for that specific person. She make sure to go around class and check we are using our body in the best way possible It is very obvious that Vered loves Yoga and has been practicing it from a loving and compassionate place which she brings with her to class and to her students. I love having her as my teacher!

Woven Gold, the Helen Bamber Foundation music group, includes people from Algeria, Burma, Chechnya, Iran, Kurdistan, Pakistan, many African countries as well as professional UK musicians. What inspires us, musicians and refugees from around the world to come together? One Kurdish client who has been with Woven Gold from the first day quotes the song No Borders which we composed together:
Let’s talk about no borders
Let’s sing about no borders
We are all human
And this is our world
He says, ‘I believe that music is the best way to live without borders, in peace, as a world family. Woven Gold has shown us that though they may have different colours and notes, the sounds are universal.’
Woven Gold’s public performances are increasingly in demand. They make clients feel they are repaying something of what Helen Bamber and the Foundation have given to them, while at the same time telling the world about our different cultures and music, and expressing ourselves freely without fear of repression. We have performed at the Eden Project in Cornwall, in London at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, at festivals including Celebrating Sanctuary on the South Bank and the City of London Festival.
In 2010 we inspired, contributed to the libretto and score, and performed in a new dramatic cantata, Consider the Lilies by John Barber. John has been with Woven Gold from the start. Commissioned by the Helen Bamber Foundation, it was premiered at St Martin-in-the-Fields. Rupert Christiansen wrote in The Daily Telegraph: ‘to hear these voices united in daring to sing such lines as “More than a survivor, I am more” or “All that was beaten has not beaten me / All that was taken has not taken me” was both inspiring and sobering.’
In 2009 Woven Gold recorded an album, Much More Than Metal; listen here.

Do work on what you really want sexually!
one of the fundamental reasons you get hitched is on account of you favor the jeans of your other half and you need to ensure that you make it clear that they basically do it for you physically, candidly and similarity astute. Keep in mind how you felt in those first tosses of desire, the way your stomach flipped when he contacted you and how you could actually fantasize for quite a long time (for the most part at a cost to basically every other action) about when you would see him, what you would do and obviously all the fun you would appreciate when you at last got together once more. Quick forward five years, toss in a few children, an expansive home loan, unpleasant professions and simply broad weariness and those powerful sentiments of yesteryear can feel so far a way that you are half persuaded they were basically fantasies of your creative energy.
This is a typical issue proposed when couples go to relationship treatment, and as a rule is joined by a huge dab of low drive. Truly, while the various parts and obligations appear to be on the expansion, frequently our sexual experiences seem to have taken a truly great crash.
Knowing how transform those ashes into the fire that once seethed takes a touch of work, however take heart, on the off chance that you submit, at that point I guarantee the main thing you should whine about is the additional hours you wish you could show in light of the fact that your sex play has achieved a radical new stratosphere
Bring an end to those unfortunate propensities! Truly, you are broken, and alright you haven’t had sufficient energy to shave your armpits for a long time, however who cares. Men cherish ladies who adore sex and whether that is a ten-minute fast in and out, or a seven-hour tantric voyage, it is the having it that matters! Ladies regularly feel that they have to look impressive and feel alluring before letting their man anyplace close them, however that is putting superfluous blockers in the way. Rather, consider sex to be a solid propensity to have as frequently as could be expected under the circumstances, on the grounds that the more you have it, the less overpowering it feels and the more you understand that your man simply adores you precisely the way you are. Thus, supplant the weight with a feeling of play
Keep it new! Couples who play together, remain together, and the best play dependably includes a reasonable number of toys. I propose vibrators, chicken rings, butt-centric dots and clitoral slugs to all my wedded customers amid relationship treatment. Indeed, this on occasion panics them, however I must enable them to break into a new sexual area and hardware is basically the straightforward entryway to a radical new plane of sexual fulfillment. Us young ladies cherish climaxes, however such a significant number of us feel that we are taking to long to peak and thusly don’t permit ourselves such satisfaction. Sex toys take the weight off as you can control when and how you peak and that fortifies the sexual input and reward circle, which implies you need to have intercourse once more, and once more (some of the time on that night!!)
Make space and time for sex! Alright, I listen to you Mum’s there taking a sharp admission of breath and considering how getting even a moment to yourself is something of a supernatural occurrence, so how on earth is time and space even on the cards for the following ten years? Approach companions or family to take your brood for a couple of hours and commit it to some grown-up fun. Arranging sex implies that you are giving each other an extremely solid message about the amount you esteem each other and that makes for a sound relationship. On the off chance that you don’t have an awesome encouraging group of people at that point influence a concurrence with your other a large portion of that you to will engage in sexual relations at unconstrained openings, this could be the point at which the children are eating their suppers in another room and you can get fifteen minutes in the restroom together, or before you rest and so on. Setting aside a few minutes matters!
Do chip away at what you truly need sexually! Sex is a two-way road and like it or generally on the off chance that you are withholding your actual wants from your accomplice then your sexual coexistence will be need gloss, best case scenario and non-existent at more terrible. I encourage my customers to play an amusement together to enable attract to out what they truly need from their connections. I give them seven days to record three needs, three needs, and three expectations. This could incorporate, I need to acquaint a vibrator with our sex play, I have to begin disclosing to you when I counterfeit a climax, and I trust that you will give me a chance to overwhelm you amid sex. This opens out the general discourse about sex as a rule and frequently prompts an undeniably satisfied sexual coexistence
Because you are exhausted doesn’t mean it is finished! Nowadays there are a million approaches to botch a cherishing and conferred relationship. Such a significant number of individuals consider fatigue to be a reason to stray. Truth be told, it is totally ordinary to extravagant other individuals, or to experience times of scrutinizing your submitted relationship, the specialty of surviving it is to hold tight in there while you make sense of how your relationship needs to proceed onward. Rather than taking your vitality somewhere else, attempt and truly center around all the colossal things that united you in any case. Awesome connections get by despite strife and not on the grounds that they neglected to encounter it
Attempt new sexual openings! Regardless of whether that includes joining to a Tantra class, or learning sensate concentration rub, enhancing your insight together can truly fortify your sexual bonds. Individuals will frequently go to class, graduate school and afterward work their routes directly through to Professor status, however what number of us treat our sexual experiences in such a way? Sex is certifiably not a solid ordeal, it is an action that should change, develop and enhance similarly as some other errand you do. In the event that you are not focusing on the sexual voyage along these lines at that point obviously you will feel exhausted and unfulfilled
Change your disposition! The possibility that masses of us essentially lose our charismas, as we get more established is absolute tripe! The lion’s share of individuals who say this essentially signify ‘I can’t be pestered, on the grounds that the sex I am having, isn’t generally turning me on’. In the event that you need to encounter a genuine feeling of relationship recovery, at that point you need to sincerely take a seat with your accomplice to clarify why you feel so unfulfilled. It isn’t reasonable for withhold from a sexual relationship since you aren’t overcome enough to have your necessities met. Sit him down, take a full breath and reveal to him what you like and don’t care for about your relationship. Cards on the table means he is welcome to play and that implies you both take the necessary steps required to remain sexually glad and fulfilled
Compliment each other! Research underpins the thought that seeing all the well done about your other half builds closeness, advances holding and makes for a more joyful relationship. It is so natural to neglect to be appreciative for the individual you share your existence with, however when you make a stride back it is an extremely unique attach to have made and setting aside opportunity to help each other to remember the amount you each mean makes the closeness required for a satisfying sexual coexistence
Keep in mind you can at present play grimy! You might be hitched, you may have children and nowadays you may feel more good in night wear than provocative unmentionables, however that doesn’t make you any less attractive. Give yourself consent to be a tease, to send smudged messages to your man and to prod him with your most loved sexual dreams, since that is the thing that likely turned you both on around each other in any case. Try not to give age, a chance to time, children or duties influence the attractive selves you used to be, those parts of you are still there, you basically permitted the volume on whatever remains of the world to muffle that unusual science, and you both have the ability to change that

Robins' superlative achievement is that the instant she enters the house -- surrounded by daughter Anya (Erin Partin), who traveled with her, and those who've waited until dawn to greet her -- her survey of the room is both heartbreaking and funny. She's moved deeply, but also unable to stop herself from dramatizing the emotions stirred in her. You laugh at her even as your eyes are welling up. This ability of Chekhov's to elicit laughs and tears simultaneously as he presents his multi-layered characters is what makes him inimitable.
But Chekhov's autumnally comic plays can't reach their vaunted level if those delivering the lines fall short of the demands. In a heartbeat, Robins brings Chekhov to throbbing, tormented life. It helps immensely that, with cheekbones so high they could be on stilts and a mouth turned down in perpetual melancholy, she looks to the manor born. Here, the manor in question is doomed to be sold unless Ranevskaya and her brother Leonid (Edmond Genest) agree to a deal that involves selling their beloved cherry orchard, a pragmatic solution that they refuse to accept. Ranevskaya is foolish about this, but Chekhov and Robins make her foolishness immeasurably profound and somehow noble, even as the axes are eventually heard felling the first trees.
Robins' other gift is that she can shift mood in mid-sentence, mid-word, mid-syllable. The scene in which she upbraids the perpetual student/tutor/pre-revolutionary Pyotr (Robbie Collier Sublett) on the necessity of love is aflame with angry passion.
The beauty part of Bonnie J. Monte's production is that Robins isn't alone in suggesting the complex nature of these characters, each of whom is unconsciously skilled at repeatedly bruising others while also being ineffably bruised. The cast is uniformly efffective: Partin is a cheerful, easily bored Anya; Alison Weller is hopeful and impatient as Varya; Genest is lost and blithe as Leonid; Sherman Howard is gruff and imploring as the merchant Lopakhin; Sublett is volatile and contrite as Pyotr; Bernard Barak Sheredy is flighty as the loyal landowner Ermolai; Stephanie Roth Haberle is cynical as the rootless governess Charlotta; Paul Niebanck is clumsy as the honest clerk Epikhodov; Caitlin Chuckta is eager as the hurtful maidservant Dunyasha; and Josh Carpenter is snide as the ambitious valet Yasha.
Monte has not only directed the show and adapted it from Julius West's translation, she's also the sound designer who pipes in the third-act klezmer music. (The tasks of costume and lighting design were left to Maggie Dick and Steve Rosen, both of whom came through with taste and sensitivity.) High praise must also go to set designer Marion Williams, who neatly answers the call for three very different environments in the four hilarious, aching acts. It's in her evocation of the eponymous cherry orchard, however, that she's truly triumphant. In many treatments of this play, the orchard isn't even seen -- but here there are a number of trees in full bloom. Set before them are three telescoping, hollow false proscenia into which Williams has poured cherry tree blossoms and branches. In an inspired use of visual metaphor, Williams has made it appear that the cherry orchard is hugging the characters while stifling them. You can practically hear Chekhov applauding the set -- and Robins -- from his too early grave.

Two posts in one day, I am getting a bit crazy here! So the current Wednesday Challenge theme over at Simon Says Stamp is "It's a guy thing" which is a real challenge for me but I thought I would give it a go and made a boy card for a change.
I am loving my new Stampin' Up Cheerful Critters and thought a little bear would be perfect. The sentiment is from a Simon Says Stamp set and I decided to use woodgrain and grey card as my base to keep it feeling masculine.
As I said I love the image but I wasn't sure how I was going to use it, I was thinking an art journal page but when I was glancing around my desk I spied a little I MISS YOU stamp and it all just came together - I love it when they happens. I even had the pink heart pre-cut and decided to utilise that.
I wanted to add some interest around the edge of the card so I use a stitched die from Lawn Fawn to finish it off. I really love how this came out.

humanizing the quake (ibaraki)
Some time in the past week, they started calling the earthquake The East Japan Earthquake. This makes mighty good sense, because the disaster area extends across so much more than the six prefectures of the Tohoku area.
Ibaraki prefecture is in the northeast part of the Kanto region, bumping up against the southernmost end of the Tohoku region. I can't recall that I've ever visited it, except in passing, but I have fond associations with it-- they once had the funniest TV commercial for Ibaraki brand rice. But on a day-to-day basis, my affection for Ibaraki has to do with a different product for which they are well known: natto, a fermented soybean product that the Japanese often have for breakfast with rice.
Natto is sometimes called an "acquired taste," but in my household it is definitely comfort food. Natto has a distinctive smell (like pungent cheese, some say), and as you stir it, it produces lots and lots of sticky, gossamer threads, These sticky threads make it awkward to eat sometimes, but they are an essential factor in the incredibly high nutritional value of this product.
This particular kind of stickiness is called nebari (noun form) or nebaru (verb form) in Japanese, and can be used to describe the quality of "sticktoitivenes," or ability to persist, persevere, and hang on in adverse circumstances.
Today's etegami shows natto beans wrapped in straw, a traditional form of natto packaging. I tried to depict the sticky threads. The accompanying words roughly translate to "Hang in there, Japan!" using the word nebare (imperative form of nebaru). Watch as the people of Ibaraki exhibit this quality in the coming days. You'll see.

Composed by Georges Bizet
Libretto by Henri Heilhac and Ludovic Halevy
Based on the story of the same name by the French novelist, Prosper Merimee
Place: In and near Seville
Time: About 1820
First Performance: Opera-Comique, Paris, March 3, 1875
Original Language: French
In a public square in front of a tobacco factory, soldiers watch the passers-by. Among them is Micaëla, a peasant girl, who is looking for an officer named Don José. Moralès, the corporal, tells her that he will arrive soon with the changing of the guard. The soldiers try to flirt with Micaëla, but she runs away. The relief guard approaches, headed by Lieutenant Zuniga, and José learns from Moralès that a girl has been looking for him. When the factory bell rings, the men of Seville gather to watch the female workers return from their lunch break—especially their favorite, the gypsy Carmen. She tells her admirers that love obeys no rules (“L’amour est un oiseau rebelle”). Only one man pays no attention to her: Don José. Coquettishly, Carmen throws a flower at him, and the girls go back into the factory.
José picks up the flower. Micaëla returns, bringing a letter—and a kiss—from José’s mother (Duet: “Parle-moi de ma mère”). When he starts to read the letter, Micaëla leaves him alone. He is about to throw away the flower when a fight erupts inside the factory between Carmen and another girl. Zuniga sends José to retrieve the gypsy. Carmen refuses to answer Zuniga’s questions, and José is ordered to take her to prison. Left alone with him, she seduces him with visions of a rendezvous at Lillas Pastia’s tavern (“Près des remparts de Séville”). Mesmerized, José agrees to let her escape. As they leave for prison, Carmen slips away and Don José is arrested.
Carmen and her friends Frasquita and Mercédès entertain the guests at Lillas Pastia’s tavern (“Les tringles des sistres tintaient”). Zuniga tells Carmen that José has just been released from prison. The bullfighter Escamillo enters and boasts about the pleasures of his profession, in particular those relating to the ladies (“Votre toast, je peux vous le rendre”). He flirts with Carmen, but she coyly puts him off.
When the tavern guests leave with Escamillo, the smugglers Dancaïre and Remendado explain their latest schemes to the women (Quintet: “Nousavons en tête une affaire”). Frasquita and Mercédès are willing to help, but Carmen refuses to join them because she is in love. José is heard singing in the distance, and the smugglers withdraw. Carmen arouses José’s jealousy by mentioning that she has been dancing with Zuniga. He declares his love, but when bugles are heard, he says he must return to the barracks. Carmen mocks him, claiming that he doesn’t love her. To prove her wrong, he shows her the flower she threw at him and confesses how its fading scent sustained his love during the weeks in prison (“La fleur que tu m’avais jetée”). She is unimpressed: if he really loved her, he would desert the army and join her in a life of freedom in the mountains. José refuses, and Carmen tells him to leave. Zuniga bursts in, and in a jealous rage José draws his sword. The smugglers return and disarm Zuniga. José now has no choice but to desert and join them.
The smugglers take a rest at their mountain hideaway. Carmen and José quarrel. She admits that her love is fading and advises him to return to live with his mother. When the women turn cards to tell their fortunes, Frasquita and Mercédès foresee love and fortune for themselves, but Carmen’s cards spell death—for her and for José (“En vain pour éviter les réponses amères”). As the smugglers set off for the city, a frightened Micaëla appears (“Je dis que rien ne m’épouvante”). A shot rings out, and she hides. José has fired at an intruder, who turns out to be Escamillo. He tells José that he has come to find Carmen and mentions her former lover, a soldier who deserted to be with her. José identifies himself, and the two men fight. The returning smugglers separate them, and Escamillo invites everyone, Carmen in particular, to his next bullfight in Seville. Escamillo leaves and Micaëla emerges. She begs José to return home. He agrees only when he learns that his mother is dying. Assuring Carmen that they will meet again, he leaves with Micaëla.
The crowd cheers the bullfighters as they enter the arena. Carmen arrives on Escamillo’s arm, and Frasquita and Mercédès warn her that José is present in the crowd. She tells them that she is not afraid and waits while a crowd enters the arena. José appears and begs Carmen to forget the past and start a new life with him, but she calmly tells him that their affair is over (Duet: “C’est toi!—C’est moi!”) and moves towards the entrance. When José tries to block her way, she finally loses her temper and throws the ring that José gave her at his feet. José stabs her to death and surrenders to the gathering crowd.

Nutrition Metabolism posted a study showing people on a diet that increased their protein by 30 percent ate about 450 fewer calories a day. They also lost about 11 pounds over the 12-week period without any other dietary changes.
Looking to lose weight? Maybe you should consider a higher protein diet.
We can agree that protein is an important part of a healthy diet, but why? Read about protein’s important role to maintain optimum health and how a high protein diet can help you safely lose weight.
There are three essential macronutrients needed in your diet – protein, carbs, and fat.
Protein does the following for your body:
- Repairs muscle, hair, skin, and bones
- Serves as a messenger for cells and organs to communicate
- Drives chemical reactions throughout your body
- Delivers molecules to the body like oxygen to cells
Some foods provide better proteins because they have more essential amino acids. Animal proteins provide all the essential amino acids. These products include fish, poultry, eggs, meat, and dairy.
These amino acids are essential because your body does not produce them.
High Protein Diet and Weight Loss
There’s a reason that people have had luck with a high protein diet to lose weight. Here’s why a high protein diet is important to your diet for weight loss and your overall health.
1- Suppresses Hunger
Eating more protein controls your appetite and makes you feel more full.
Protein increases hormones like PYY and GLP-1 that help you feel full. It also reduces levels of ghrelin that makes you feel hungry.
If you are not hungry and feel full, eating higher amounts of protein can actually reduce the amount of food you eat naturally.
2- Burns More Calories
More protein may increase the calories you burn. Protein can boost your metabolic rate by an astounding 20-35 percent when comparing to carbs or fat.
You can actually keep burning more calories hours after eating. You can also burn calories while you sleep.
3- Cuts Down Cravings
Many people fail at diets because of cravings. Also, late night snacking can destroy diets and cause you to gain weight.
Protein can help control both of these. Eating more protein will slow down the absorption of sugar into your bloodstream to deter cravings.
You will not feel such highs and lows from carbohydrates.
4 – Preserves of Lean Muscle Mass
When you want to lose weight, you want to lose fat mass while keeping your lean muscle mass. This is best to do over a period of time.
Protein helps protect your lean body muscles. After intense exercise, increasing protein in your diet can help you repair and grow lean muscle.
5 – Reduces Fat in the Midsection
Having a bulging midsection is not only a vanity issue; it can also cause serious health problems such as heart disease and diabetes. A high protein diet can reduce the risk of these diseases.
It also addresses abdominal weight loss. A study found that high amounts of protein significantly reduced belly fat gains for 5 years.
6 – Improves Nerve Signal Transmission
If you don’t get enough protein, you could face a nervous system disorder. This is because protein assists with electrical transmission throughout your body.
Protein forms and maintains the myelin sheath, a type of tissue. Low amounts of protein can cause deficiencies in the barrier, resulting in electrical signals being lost.
7 – Promotes Hair and Skin Health
Proteins are structural, and hair is a protein-based tissue. You need protein to have healthy hair because hair is filled with protein collagen.
You also need protein for your skin. Skin has two essential proteins – collagen and elastin. Both of these keep skin in its natural condition and helps avoid sagging.
Collagen protects the skin barrier to keep in the moisture.
8 – Manages Blood Glucose
Protein supports manageable blood glucose levels. It helps produce peptide hormone insulin, which helps manage diabetes.
Combining protein-rich foods and fats and carbohydrates slow the glucose breakdown into glucose and its absorption into the blood. This minimizes insulin spikes.
Type two diabetes can be reversed with the proper regime.
Following a High-Protein Diet
A high-protein diet is relatively easy to do, and you can easily find choices even at restaurants. You can customize based on your food choices and health goals.
For example, if you have blood sugar issues, you may want to follow a low-carb, high-protein diet to control your blood sugar.
If you can’t eat milk products, there are plenty of dairy-free foods out there filled with protein.
Vegetarians can eat high proteins with eggs, dairy, nuts, seeds, and additional plant proteins.
Create a food diary with either an app or website to help set your goals. These sites will also give you an idea of good proteins and how much is in each food.
On average, a female should eat 46 grams of protein a day, and a man should eat 56 grams daily. This amount should be increased with different exercise programs.
Eat a diet filled with both plant and animal proteins. Choose higher quality items like eggs, fresh meats, dairy, and nuts. These are healthier options than highly processed food like lunch meat and bacon.
Protein Rich Foods
What are some high protein foods? Here are some you should consider for your diet:
- Cottage Cheese
- Chia Seeds
Are There Any Side Effects?
High-protein diets are generally safe and healthy for the majority of people. This diet does not cause kidney problems as once thought.
However, if you are susceptible to kidney stones, you can experience issues with high amounts of animal protein. Talk to your doctor before changing your diet.
The Bottom Line on Protein
Protein is a vital nutrient to your body. Eating higher amounts of protein has been linked to several health benefits such as weight loss, reducing aging, and lowering appetite.
To get the best results from this diet, eat protein throughout the day. Choose higher quality sources. Also, you should still eat healthy fats and carbs.

Winning Thrice is Twice as Nice
when you do it Twice
Barry Barnes vs Dave des Jardins.
Akihisa Tabei of Japan meets Dave
Gubbay of Australia at WBC.
The beginning of the tournament is always a time of excitement.
The players draw randomly to see who will become their first
round opponent, waiting for the occasional straggler who is not
able to make it right at 10 am. The boards are set up, the clash
begins. There is also the contingency extended to a few players
who contact the GM ahead of time to arrange a late start, when
the 10 am time slot conflicts with another favorite game.
The field included no less than seven former champions. Their
games are seeded into the bracket so that the earliest meeting
between two champions would take place in the quarter-finals.
Five of those champions made it to the quarters, and each quarter-final
winner was a former champion, the first time that the semi-finals
included no unseeded player.
In the only quarter-final that featured champion against champion,
the contest resulted in the mutual death of two titans. Dan Strock
won the tiebreaker over David desJardins. Brian Sutton won his
quarter in 13 minutes over our good friend from Tokyo, Akihisa
Tabei. Aaron Fuegi took a bit longer, running up his score steadily
against Tom Johnston. After Aaron earned Titan teleport and an
archangel in consecutive battles, Tom bowed to the inevitable
It is worthwhile to mention Aaron's Round 2 game against Art
Wines. I happened by the board at a critical moment. Aaron's
unwounded 6 high titan had moved between an angel and a ranger.
With help from other creatures, both had been eliminated but
had yet to strike back. On another part of the battle land, it
appeared as if an unwounded lion would become free and be able
to reach the titan, so Aaron spilled two hits to that lion rather
than kill another lion which would remain engaged. On the strike
back, the angel and ranger combined to hit the titan five times,
leaving Aaron one hit from elimination. As expected, the lion
killed the Cyclops pinning it down and ran to engage the titan.
Needing only a single hit, Art's throw did not include a 5 or
a 6 and the lion quickly expired. This is unquestionably a game
which includes chance, and the eventual winner must not only
be good but lucky as well. The probability simplifies to two
thirds to the fifth power, or 32/243 for the lion to fail to
get at least one hit. And there is also a good chance that the
angel and the ranger with ten dice might have killed the titan.
Aaron's semi-final win over Brian included only two battles,
and was over quickly. By contrast, the semi-final won by Sean
McCulloch over Dan featured 12 battles won by each player before
the climax. Sean's big score out of those battles was only 92
points, but Dan's was even lower, scoring 66 points in his largest
win. Neither player topped 400 points to achieve teleport. It
is unusual for that many battles to take place without a single
In the Final, Sean made an early tactical error by splitting
the gargoyles from his titan stack before they had recruited
a Cyclops. Shortly after that, Aaron entered a tower with his
angel stack, recruiting a guardian. After splitting, he teleported
to the tower above Sean's titan stack to recruit a second guardian.
When Sean moved, Aaron rolled another 6 and chose to teleport
to a plains hex immediately in front of Sean's titan, recruiting
ranger with ranger. Sean had nowhere to go. His titan would be
blocked forever unless he attacked. Sean had a warlock and a
ranger, but because of the earlier split, still had two centaurs
and two lions. Not very hopeful, even with the angel to summon.
Nevertheless, he attacked as the best option, and the result
was the expected outcome. Aaron won his third TT2 title to go
with his third TTN championship - all in the same year - with
a great deal of skill and a little bit of luck.
2002 Champ Dan Strock loses to Sean
in this year's semi-finals. Dan had to settle for third.
GM Rich Atwater watches Aaron complete
Titan titles over 2007 champ Sean McCulloch.

So, I’ve suggested thee angles to answering the question of what is beautiful. Angle 1: something is beautiful because it is truthful. The words or ideas it uses resonate with reality, and we recognise and enjoy that. Angle 2: something is beautiful because it affects or moves us, perhaps with delight, often with sadness, and

[torqueusers] Epilogue script

None that I can think of, but then again I'm biased. :)
The things we've run into at OSC that sometimes can make mpiexec
problematic are ISV codes that are compiled statically against MPICH/p4
and insist on invoking mpirun under the covers. The parallel version of
Turbomole is the one with which I remember having the most trouble, but
I think the parallel version of Abaqus works like this as well. Pete W.
developed a mpirun "replacement" for that took all the well-known MPICH
mpirun arguments, ignored most of them, and invoked mpiexec. However, I
don't know if he's made that part of the mpiexec distribution or not.

Take a look at the reaver script in the pbstools SVN head:
It's designed to identify (and optionally kill) processes which are
*not* owned by either system userids or userids with jobs assigned to
the node, but you can give it a list of jobids to clean up as well.
I haven't done a release of pbstools in a while... [makes mental note
to do one soon]

CORVALLIS - Ken Krane, a professor emeritus of physics at Oregon State University, has received the Robert A. Millikan Award from the American Association of Physics Teachers.
Krane, who retired this year after 30 years on the OSU faculty, received the award at the association's annual meeting. The award honors career achievements in the teaching of physics, as well as contributions to the association and to the physics field.
The OSU professor was cited for his "notable and creative contributions, so various and wide ranging, from writing fine textbooks, to (developing) successful new faculty workshops." He also was cited for his national leadership and extending physics to diverse constituencies.
Krane received numerous awards during his career, including the OSU Alumni Association's Distinguished Faculty Award and the D. Curtis Mumford Faculty Service Award. He is a fellow in the American Physical Society and active in several professional organizations.
He is a former president of the OSU Faculty Senate.
Krane is still active on campus and is halfway through a project to create a national program of workshops for new physics faculty members from colleges and universities throughout the United States. The five-year, $773,311 project was funded by the National Science Foundation.

Every teacher, new teachers or veteran teachers like me, will have those moments when the class is just too loud. You want to make an announcement or you want to transition into a new activity or you just want to hear yourself think again, but you can’t, because the students are just talking too much. Many teachers will raise their voice and start yelling, and that is a bad precedent to start.
I haven’t had to raise my voice in class in several years now, and I have eighth graders! Yes, eighth graders! They’re in the middle of those I-Know-More-Than-The-Adults stage in their life, and they will get loud if given the chance. I’ve learned, however, how to get them quiet again without having to yell at them. I thought I’d share some of what I’ve learned here on this post.
Here comes my disclaimer: Although these techniques work for me, they may have different results in your class. A lot depends on your students and how you implement these strategies.
That said, here are five ways to get your class quiet again without raising your voice.
1. Have a Predetermined Signal – I used to have a bell that I would ring when I wanted the class quiet. The kids were told at the beginning of the year that when the bell sounded, it was the signal to stop everything and look for the teacher. I know teachers who use a train whistle as their signal. I don’t use this technique anymore, because I found myself hearing that blasted bell in my sleep. It does work, however.
2. The Count Down – I sometimes will say, “I need it quiet in 5….4….3….2…1.” By the time I get to one, the class has settled down enough for me to concentrate on those two or three students who are still talking. I know teachers who count 1…2….3.., and that works too, but counting backwards tells the kids that something is coming to an end. Counting up could last forever unless you had already predetermined a final number.
3. I Pick You – Another technique I use is finding the loudest student, calling his/her name and making him/her stop first. I’ll say something like, “Stop talking.” It’s a little harsh, but it works for me. You may want to use a more nicer way of saying it. Most of the time, the rest of the class will stop talking so that they’re not the next one called. Sometimes the student I call will say, “I’m not the only one talking.” That’s when I’ll say, “You’re right, but I had to start with someone, and I picked you.” They actually see it as kind of an honor.
4. Copy This Down – Students are quiet when they are writing. If the class is getting too loud, what I do sometimes is either turn on my overhead projector or my Power Point or I start writing on the white board something that they need to copy down. I never make it a punishment text, such as “We were bad so we have to write this boring irrelevant sentence so we can get quiet again.” Make it something that has to do with the current topic of your lesson, and don’t make it an obvious attempt to get the students quiet again. As far as the students know, it’s part of the day’s lesson plan. Once they’re quiet again, I tell them to save that paper, and use it to study for the next test.
5. I’ll Wait – This is the technique I use most. What I do is stand in front of the class with my hands behind my back, and I say, “I need it quiet…..I’ll wait.” and I just stand there waiting. Believe me when I tell you that the students start shushing the rest of the class, and within 15 seconds the class is quiet again. Then I move on as if nothing happened. There are a couple of points that make this so successful in my class. First of all, I tell them what I need, not what they have to do. I need it quiet. Somewhere in their brains they see getting quiet as a way to help me. They don’t see it as a chore or a demand. Also, as they are getting quiet, I start looking for those students who are still talking, and I focus my teacher heat ray vision on them. Every teacher has this power. You have this power. Use it. Somehow, the students feel it, and they turn my way and stop talking. Then I focus my rays on the next talking student. It’s cool to see the other students warn each other, “He’s looking at you.” I always make it a point to continue with the lesson as if nothing happened. Never make a big deal out of the class getting loud. It’s normal for that to happen. You don’t want robots in your class. Accept that they are kids who will act like…well, kids.
Again, this is what I do, but I believe these techniques can be successful in your class too.
What do you do to get your students quiet again? Please let me know what has worked in your class.

Build a Wierix Square, Step 2
Making the blade of the Wierix square is the most creative part of the construction process, when you can get in touch with your inner fledermaus (aka bat).
While you can argue about whether or not the curves on the blade have any purpose, I am pretty certain of the reason the overall blade is triangular: to conserve wood and make the square easier to use.
You can easily saw two blades out of a single blank with little waste. That’s 1 point for triangles. When you put this square to use for layout chores, you’ll be thrilled because it doesn’t tip around like an “L”-shaped square. Point 2 for the triangle.
Interestingly, the French use the word “triangle” for “try square” in A.J. Roubo’s 18th-century text.
Saw the blade blank diagonally to create two blades. This is an operation that is easier on the bench as shown in the photo – it’s an awkward operation on a sawbench. (Somewhere in America, carpenter Carl Bilderback is right now making a crude joke about what overhand sawing looks like to him.)
Now lay out the four curves. I plotted four points and then joined them using my French curves. Everytime I make a batch of squares I make a slightly different shape. If you want to see one sample layout, you can download this SketchUp drawing. When I draw my curves, I just think “bat” all the time – it seems to help.
I saw out the curves using a coping saw. I secure the blade flat on the bench with a holdfast and hold the handle of the coping saw vertically. This is an old technique. If you want to learn more about coping saws – tuning them up and using them – check out the August 2014 issue of Popular Woodworking Magazine.
You should shift the square’s blade a couple of times during sawing to keep the sawing action near the front edge of the benchtop. You can snap the blade of the square if it is cantilevered too far off the benchtop.
Once you finish sawing, clean up the cuts with rasps and sandpaper. Drill a hang hole and use a smoothing plane to remove any pencil lines and dings on the blade.
Assembling these squares is pretty easy. If you don’t have any clamps, glue the blade into the stock and push the blade to the bottom of the groove in the stock. Hold the stock and blade together tightly for about 10 minutes until the glue siezes up. Then set the assembly aside until the glue dries.
If you have clamps, consider the setup shown in the photo above. Secure the blade to the benchtop with about 1” of the square hanging off the benchtop. A holdfast will do the trick to keep the blade immobile.
Then clamp the stock to the blade with clamps as shown. This setup pulls the blade to the bottom of the groove and results in a square that requires less truing after the glue has set up.
Tomorrow: Truing and finishing the square.

Gulliver describes Lilliputians as ingenious people.They treated him with so much expense and magnificence. These people are most excellent Mathematicians, and arrived to a great perfection in Mechanics, by the countenance and encouragement of the emperor, who is a renowned patron of learning.Lilliputians considered fraud as greater crime than theft.They always punish fraud with death. The nurseries for males of noble or eminent birth, are provided with brave and learned professors, and their several deputies. The clothes and food of the children are plain and simple. They are bred up in the principles of honour,justice, courage, modesty, clemency, religion, and love of their country. The cottagers and labourers keep their children at home, their business being only to till and cultivate the earth, and therefore their education is of little consequence to the them.Lilliputians are talented engineers because they have been able to inveny and construct an enormous carriage.Lilliputians tests physical power and agility, instead of moral power and reason to determine who will hold its governmental offices.The laws of Lilliput are also very different to English laws. They regard trade as very important and they think that trade depends on honesty. Lilliputians are tiny people and Swift draws an analogy upon their physical size by linking that their smallness in character.
EMPEROR OF LILLIPUT
Emperor of Lilliput is an excellent horse man.He is strong,masculine and all his motions are graceful and his deportment is majestic.He is twenty eight years and three quarters old. The Emperor has good leadership qualities such as he frequently conducts councils inorder to debate about what course should be taken with Gulliver,because his diet is very expensive and might cause a famine.As Gulliver made great progress in learning their language ,Emperor frequently honoured him with his visits.He also gives permission to Gulliver to move around in the kingdom only on the condition that he will not hurt anyone. The Emperor takes wisest decisions according to the advise of council.He strictly implemented laws of kingdom.The emperor gives Gulliver the land’s highest honor,’Nardac’.He longed to reduce the whole empire of Blefuscu in to a province and to govern it by a viceroy.He is very ambitious and wished to become the monarch of the whole world.
The emperor is also deceptive,when Gulliver goes away to visit Blefuscu,the emperor seems as though he remains Gulliver’s friend ; however ,the emperor with other malicious courtiers plot how to rid the kingdom of their giant.The emperor accuse him of treason and plan to execute him upon his return to Lilliput.This shows that the emperor is savage,merciless and selfish.He clearly thinks of highly himself and much less of practically everyone else. We can understand that the Emperor only sees Gulliver in terms of what Gullliver can do to bring him more power .The emperor is also egocentric and acts much like a despotic ruler.He demands that his officials walk on tight ropes and perform other dangerous acts to obtain and keep their jobs . The emperor shows lack of appreciation for Gulliver both saving his wife’s life in the burning castle and for repelling an attack on Lilliput by impeaching him.The emperor loves war and really wants to enslave people of his neighbouring Island.When Gulliver refuses to help him destroy Blefuscus freedom ,the emperor starts to hate Gulliver.
Filmnap is the treasurer in Lilliput,he had always been Gulliver’s secret enemy. He conceives a jealous hatred for Gulliver when he starts believing that his wife is having an affair with Gulliver.He represented the low condition of treasury inorder to dismiss Gulliver from their country. Flimnap is a portrait of the weaknesses of character to which any human is prone but that become especially dangerous in those who wield great power. High- admiral, Filmnap is also described as Gulliver’s mortal enemy since his arrival.His hatred increased since Gulliver’s great success against Blefuscu.
Redresel ,Pricipal secretary of private affairs in Lilliput .He is Gulliver’s true friend. He explains the history of the political tensions between the two principal parties in the realm, the High-Heels and the Low-Heels to Gulliver.
Skyresh Bolgolam, High- admiral, who is the only member of the administration to oppose Gulliver’s liberation. Gulliver imagines that Skyresh’s enmity is simply personal, though there is no apparent reason for such hostility.
The empire of Blefuscu is an Island situated to the North-East of Lilliput. Blefuscians are prone to conspiracies and jealousies, and while they treat Gulliver well enough materially, they are quick to take advantage of him in political intrigues of various sorts. The two races have been in a longstanding war with each other in the interpretation of proper way to cut the eggs. Gulliver helps the Lilliputians defeat the Blefuscian navy, but he eventually leaves Lilliput and receives a warm welcome in the court of Blefuscu. by which Swift satirizes the arbitrariness of international relations.
EMPEROR OF BLEFUSCU
Emperor of Blefuscu helped Gulliver to return to his native country. The emperor of Blefuscu is kind, as he grants Gulliver supplies to outfit the ship that Gulliver has found. The emperor of Blefuscu promises protection t0o Gulliver , and he is sincere about granting it. However, when Gulliver decides that he would rather leave Blefuscu, the emperor agrees to Gulliver’s wishes, showing that the emperor is gracious and beneficent. In fact, the emperor gives Gulliver fifty purses filled with money. Gulliver trusts him and remarks on his generosity and grace.

The Bofors kickbacks scandal happened in the 1980s; Ottavio Quattrocchi, one of the persons named in the CBI's chargesheet in the case left the country soon after the scam broke, never to return.
It was rumoured that he was close to Sonia Gandhi's family in Italy, which was how he had access to the corridors of power. The scandal tarnished Rajiv Gandhi and the Congress party and led to his government's defeat in the 1989 general election.
Over the last two decades, everytime there was a fresh development in the case, the political system has gone into convulsions. Parliament gets disrupted routinely, a clamour goes out for the enforcement of the law.
Two decades on, no one has been convicted for siphoning off Rs 64 crores in commissions, the trail having gone cold long ago.
Interpol has a red corner notice out on Quattrocchi, which was how he came to be arrested in Argentina earlier this month.
The CBI's silence on the matter for three weeks, the news finally coming out from Interpol, has led to a fresh furore in India, with charges of connivance with the accused being hurled at the Congress leadership and the government.
Parliament has been disrupted, even the presentation of the Railway Budget on Monday was delayed because of the din.
All of which begs the question: Does the public, in this case our readers, you, really care about who Quattrocchi is? Has the Bofors scandal become one of those meaningless exercises with no end in sight?
Tell us what you think!

Since moving to America I have been unable to purchase this product. Sally’s use to stock it apparently. Typical that they should stop when I move here and there is one down the road from me. Next time I go to the UK I will bring back at least ten bottles! I will be purchasing it from Amazon though while I’m here. In the UK it is so cheap to purchase (usually under £2 at Paks ) but it’s price is not a true reflection of how beneficial it is for your hair. It can also be used on your skin! I find most natural products can be used for both your hair and skin. I use it to condition my hair after shampooing. It can be heated up in a cup of hot water or you can apply it to your hair cold and sit under a heated cap. I prefer using a heated cap. I section my hair into four and apply it evenly, making sure that the ends are coated well. You can mix it with your usual conditioner or use it by itself. Once my hair is saturated in it I cover my head with a plastic cap and sit under my heated cap for 25-30 minutes. Then I simply rinse my hair.
Some people may prefer to use it before washing as a ‘pre-poo’ conditioning process. This depends on your preference as some may find that it makes their hair too greasy. My hair soaks up moisture like a sponge so I prefer a simple rinse to keep most of it in my hair. If your hair is feeling dry you could just apply it as a moisturiser as well. The benefits I have noticed from using this are: less shedding, reduced number of split ends, it adds shine and moisturises my hair and scalp really well! So I would highly recommend this product. I haven’t tried any other brands but I guess if it’s 100% natural, carrot oil is pretty much the same anywhere. Does anyone else use this or is there another oil you use? Perhaps you use olive oil or coconut oil. If you try this let us know how it worked for you and if you know any stores that sell it in the States please let me know! It’s a shame Walmart doesn’t sell it.

Melissa Schollaert has captured pure winter loveliness. Tailor & Table Design Studio crafted an elegant feast complete with cocktails while the channeling the romance of an English countryside whilst embracing the calming quiet of a Georgian winter. A dreamy Bel Fiore Bridal gown, richly hued florals, and an intimate fireside celebration have left me embracing the cooler months ahead… and you can see it all right here.
From Melissa Schollaert Photography... Our storyline is based on a wedding in the English Countryside at an old, abandoned manor. The look of it is very masculine, dark, moody and winter-focused, and is set at Barnsley Gardens in Georgia, a decaying renaissance home built in the 1840s. We envision a lively, turn of the century affair with an entire weekend of events ranging from pheasant hunts for the gentlemen to afternoon tea for the ladies. We also incorporated a traditional wintertime, English Cocktail called Wassail, which was drank on the Epiphany celebration on January 6th. The history of wassail is that groups would go out into the apple orchards on the feast of the Epiphany and sing songs to the trees in order to promote an abundant apple harvest the next year. We had an entire cocktail station with mulled cider, bourbon, apples and all of the spices necessary to make the beverage. We also had a traditional English feast of abundance with candied fruit, roasted vegetables and a whole chicken roasted over a fire created by the chef at Barnsley. Our models donned winter attire provided by London Trading Company in Atlanta - complete with authentic English hunting gear for the groom, as well as a shawl/cape and accessories for the bride in addition to her traditional wedding gown. We even included an authentic hunting hound to the shoot as well.

After a much easier interim period when I had just one play to read, we met last night to begin the wrap-up sessions. We've read from about 55 plays. Some were dropped after one person read them and scored them low. That's what happened this week. My play wasn't worth further consideration, and it was shelved. It's the best tact; we have to sort the plays we all like and choose our overall winners. We need to pick six plays in some combination of murders/suspense, comedies, farce, drama, and light drama. At the end of the meeting, we were given a list to score the remaining 25 plays. That gives us a week to individually choose the plays we prefer, and we'll meet next week to compare the lists.
Unfortunately, we have to consider the capability of the theatre for each play. Can we cast it? Can we mount it? Are there too many props or costumes? One of us, who just finished directing the annual kids show, is exhausted to the point of nihilism. She doesn't see much hope in the plays other than the ones she espouses (a drama and a farce). We've already butted heads over her farce choice. I think it's the weaker of two similar plays. She also continues to focus on how recently we've performed a play. She thinks we risk boring our audience with a recent rerun. However, we're also considering a recent survey where audiences told us what shows they wanted. The top vote-getter, The Moustrap, was performed eight years ago. Do we bring back a crowd-pleaser even if it's a relatively recent production? I say yes. Eight years offers a lot of audience-member turnover, and we need to make money this year. We need to do high-profile shows, and Mousetrap is the most popular mystery play ever produced.
The problem is we probably can't mount it until the end of the season when construction on the theatre space winds down. That space construction weighs heavily in our debate. The current building is essentially a shell and a floor. We need to replace everything -- wiring, stage, curtains, floors, bathrooms, etc. Because the season has to start soon, the above person wants to announce a comedy to start the season. And with a shrinking window to find a director, cast, rehearse, and perform the play, she wants to pick now. Luckily, we have a play that needs the barest of sets: an unfinished apartment. When presented with this, she plays the casting card. Who would act the roles of the young leads? I volunteer to do it. She's surprised. I unintentionally make a speech. In for a penny, in for a pound. If we like a play this much, we have to see it through. We have to pitch in. Also, it's a fun script. Why wouldn't I do it?
She did this last week too, calling my bluff on directing a play, and again I jumped at it. She's pooped. She just ran a play loaded with kids. We're not adversaries; I'm new enough to have an optimism unmolested by bureaucracy and backstage carping. We are on the opposite poles. She suspects a show can't be done. I suggest how we could.
What we're thinking now is this: We produce Bell, Book, and Candle for the October show. It's a comedy about witches and would run right at Halloween. Then we present the Trial of Ebeneezer Scrooge for the Christmas show. That's two light, fun shows to start the season. We save the drama for later in the season.
There's an arithmetic at work here, and I think we are, in general, trying to make the best season instead of pushing our personal faves. We've each seen a handful of advocated plays fall to the junkpile. We're very near to finishing this committee and cranking up the theatre machine. I have one play to read this week, and I'm halfway through. The others are exchanging plays to pad out the scores. I have read virtually everything already. I can take it easy.
I'm sincere about hopping into that apartment comedy if need be. There's even a role or two I could try in Bell, Book, and Candle. I'll be involved somehow in most plays this year. Just a question of how.

Gerry Anderson passed away, today, according to the Guardian. He was 83 years old.
A 1970s Thunderbird 2 Dinky was one of my favorite toys, ever.
I mean, seriously, yes: Thunderbirds; UFO; Captain Scarlet; Stingray; et al.
But that toy…that toy…to me, Thunderbird 2 was as beautiful as a Spitfire, or a Mustang. It was a point where my 10-year-old self had a quasi-realization that Design matters.
Gerry Anderson brought many fine things into this world.
One of them was a little toy, that may have changed my worldview.
Farewell, Gerry Anderson. I can think of no better thing to post, in tribute, than the Thunderbirds theme, performed by the Royal Marines (which ended “Thunderbirds Are Go”). If the embedded link doesn’t work, you can find the clip by clicking here.

The history of Catholicism in Upstate New York revolves around the history of Mary's Church in Albany. Even before its official incorporation on October 6, 1796 as "The Roman Catholic Church in the City of Albany," the site of this present church was blessed by the presence of St. Isaac Jogues, who as a prisoner of the Mohawk Indians, crept away from his captors from the Dutch barn which stood near this present church. In 1805, Dr. O'Brien, pastor of St. Mary's, having been transferred to St. Peter's in New York City, received St. Elizabeth Seton into the Catholic Church. St. John Neumann, on route to his assignment in Western New York, would stop to celebrate Mass at St. Mary's.
The parish, one of the few first parishes dedicated to our Blessed Mother in the original colonies, was placed under the title of the Assumption. St. Mary's is the second oldest parish in New York State, preceded only by St. Peter's on Barclay Street in Manhattan which was founded in 1786.
With the opening of St. Mary's parish, the congregation and parish were under the jurisdiction of Bishop John Carroll, then Bishop of Baltimore and part of the Baltimore Diocese, The first elected parish board of St. Mary's was comprised of Thomas Barry, Louis LeCouteulx, Daniel McEvers, Terence O'Donnell, Jeremiah Driskil, Michael Begley, James Robicheaux. William Donovan and Philip Farrell.
In 1808 the new Diocese of New York, which now had St. Mary's under its jurisdiction, was established. The original parish boundaries of the parish extended to Rochester in the "Far West", the Canadian border in the north; Pennsylvania border and Poughkeepsie in the south. As the number of parishioners grew, "mission churches" were established such as: St. John's, Utica (1819); St. Patrick's, Rochester (1820); Holy Family, Auburn (1820); St. James, Carthage (1821); and, St. Peter's, Troy, (1827).
Arriving by steamboat on the 17th of September 1824, it was recorded that the Marquis DeLafayette arrived in Albany on his tour throughout the United States. On June 11, 1825 he again visits the city and on the following day, Sunday, he attended church. General LaFayette, a catholic, with his staff, heard Mass in Albany within the first St. Mary's Church. The pastor was Rev. John Lewis Savage, O.P.
In 1847, Pope Plus IX established new upstate dioceses with centers at Albany and Buffalo. At this time, with the creation of the Albany Diocese, St. Mary's now went under the jurisdiction of the Diocese of Albany. With the appointment of Rt. Rev. John McCloskey, (later Cardinal) St. Mary's was chosen as his cathedral church. Here, Bishop Hughes installed McCloskey on September 19, 1847.
On October 10, 1853, Pope Plus IX ordained Fr. John Loughlin, who had grown up in Albany as a parishioner of St. Mary's, the first bishop of the new Diocese of Brooklyn. On May 5, 1872, St. Mary's close friend and former assistant Fr. Edgar Wadhams (who was ordained as a priest in 1850 in St. Mary's Church) was ordained as the first Bishop of Ogdensburg in our present Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception.
In 1794 Catholics in Albany -- seeking permission to ob;ain land in the Chapel Street area in which to construct a church -- filed official papers with the Vatican. In 1797, the first church was built on the corner of Pine and Chapel streets.
On Oct. 12, 1820, in order to alleviate the overcrowded original church, the second church -- designed by Philip Hooker in the Federal style was built. The cost of the new construction was $12,000. This new church was built on the same site as the old. (A hill had to be cut away and Steuben Street had to be opened above Chapel Street.) Men of the parish set to build the street with picks and shovels. The "Last Patroon," Stephen Van Rensselaer, donated $100. Governor and later U.S. President Martin Van Buren donated $50.
On August 11, 1867, the cornerstone of the third and final church of St. Mary's was laid. The church, again on the same site and designed by Charles Nichols, an Albany architect, was designed in the style of the Romanesque Revival and cost $100,000 to build. It was dedicated by the second Bishop of Albany, Rt. Rev. John Conroy.
July 2, 1870, saw the dedication of "Our Lady's Altar" by the Vicar General Wadhams. This altar was a gift of a parishioner, Dr. Edmund O'Callaghan, historian of New York State.
All of this work was the work of Fr. Clarence A. Walworth whose father Reuben was Chancellor of the State of New York (the last man to hold that now- obsolete office). Because of his great love of Bavaria, especially the Black Forest, Fr. Walworth placed his great devotion to angels and to his love of German craftsmanship and carving to beautify, in a simple way, the church of Our Lady. His final touch was to crown with a weathervane the spire of St. Mary's Church the large statue of St. Gabriel the Archangel blowing a trumpet as the "Angel of Judgment" (Sept. 1, 1895). It also was during his pastorate that the installation of electricity gave St. Mary's the distinction of being the first church in Albany to enjoy electric lighting. He had been a man to reckon with in Albany's churchly and civic life. His interests had been diversified: the cause of the saintly Kateri Tekawitha; solicitude for St. Regis Iroquois Indians; encouragement of cultural movements - Oxford movement; his contribution to Catholic hymnody was his translation from German the words of America's most popular Catholic hymn - "Holy God, We Praise Thy Name."
St. Philip's Mission Church of St. Mary's
As the downtown residential population of Albany began to shift, a mission church of St. Mary's was built at South Swan Street and Sheridan Park. In 1926 a compact little church, seating about 400, and built of tapestry brick, Indiana limestone foundation and trimming, tile roof and tower with bell was erected. A main altar with two small altars with statues of the Sacred Heart, Blessed Virgin, Little Flowers and St. Joseph decorated this small building along with an imposing statue of St. Philip the Apostle, patron of the Church, located in its entrance way. A large pipe organ was installed in the choir loft.
In September of 1931, St. Philip's School opened its doors. It was designed by Gander, Gander & Gander Architects: William G. Sheehan Construction Company: A. J. Eckert, plumbing, William Irvin, heating. The school was staffed by the Sisters of the Holy Ghost and Mary Immaculate.

Iggy the Hymer motorhome is bathing in the smell of fresh brewed coffee in a carpark in Salamanca while I cast my mind back to Vitoria Gastiez. Jay is making cappucinos for breakfast to go with the Canas de chocolate, and oranges that I fetched from the nearby store.
It’s a dull morning, but mild, and the sun is working hard to burn away the clouds overhead. Marley and I have been for a walk along the river – minus camera unfortuntely – as groups of herons, egrets and cormorants all burst from the banks around us and took morning flight across the water.
Soon breakfast will be over, and Jay will tidy Iggy and secure everything in the lockers as I try to catch up on the blog before we get back on the road.
Spain or Portugal? Reader’s Choice..
Yesterday we asked everyone on our facebook page should we keep heading South? Or take a West for Portugal? The result has been a pretty emphatic two to one in favour of Portugal! So West we will go young man! Or middle aged man, woman, huge dog and one, very noisy, mouse…
But first? Let me tell you all about Vitoria Gastiez…
Vitoria Gastiez – Historic Basque Capital
As usual when I’m failing miserably to keep up to date with the blog I’m going to have to look back on the calendar to find out when we actually stayed at Vitoria Gastiez! And what day today is for that matter? Not a weekend? Second half of February?
As it happens today is Tuesday 19th Feb. Or so my phone says anyway. And we stayed at Vitoria Gastiez on Friday the 15th. Ah! It’s all starting to come back to me now…
We waved goodbye to Vera and Rita in Donostia, and managed to find our way out of the city with only one wrong turn. Oops! We’d been so pleased not to mess up on our way in. But Donostia had managed to catch us out again just at the last moment!
A handy roundabout had us turned round and headed in the right direction with minimum stress though. Satnav set firmly for Cadiz to keep us pointed in the right general direction we headed South while I had a wee look through maps and park4night to choose an actual destination for the day.
We toyed with the idea of Burgos, but we had visited there on our last trip to Spain. We’d really enjoyed our day there, and it’s definitely worth more than one visit. But the world is so full of places to see, and our time is so short, that we try to avoid returning to places we’ve already visited.
Jay wasn’t feeling much like a long drive after our day out on Thursday and Vitoria Gastiez quickly ticked all the boxes. Short drive. Free Aire. Historic Centre.
Fully armed with that information, and no more, an hour and a half later saw us arriving at the Vitoria Gastiez free Aire at N42.866699, W2.68499.
The Aire is set in a large carpark, in an area of big residential apartment blocks, and opposite a big Mercadona supermarket. First impressions could be a bit off-putting, especially if not used to modern Spanish cities, but we’d seen areas like this before and there were at least 30 other vans in the Aire, mostly Spanish, so we felt totally safe.
It was a 30 minute walk into the centre (there is a tram for those who don’t want to walk) and the beginning, through the towering “villages” of apartment blocks does not give an impression of good things to come. Dog poo is liberally scattered on the many grassy spaces, and graffiti tags seem to be breeding on shutters and low level walls.
In the UK this would be a very dodgy area, but a second glance shows that those grassy areas run all round and between the apartments, and in large central courtyards inside them as well. Beautiful, huge trees, parade in every conceivable space. There may be dog poo, but there is zero other litter. And finally, the bottom floor of each apartment block is made up of shops and cafes, while children’s playgrounds sit in the central courtyards.
Hairdressers, insurance companies, vets, corner shops – every shop you would find in any city centre location. All smart and “proper” looking businesses. Each cafe a central gathering place with smiling faces and a community of people who know each other.
Nobody bothers us as we pass through. Unless you count the fellow dog walkers keen to chat with Marley. Curious to chat with us too. You don’t get many Scottish people with Greek Mountain Dogs wandering the Spanish interior in February it seems!
The apartment blocks soon give way to a park, then a main road to cross. Some more traditional long streets of shops and apartments. We were beginning to think this “historical centre” was going to be a disappointingly tiny arrangement of three streets in the centre of a huge, modern city!
But we were also about to be very wrong! Round the next corner and a huge church appeared before us with a small, attractive park laid out around it. The old gargoyles round it’s roof appeared on closer examination to be modern replcements. Men holding phones and wearing flying goggles laughed down at us from on high. Their workmanship indistinguishable from the ancient stone around them.
In the park a bronze crocodile guarded the waters of the fountains with open jaws, and large, spiky teeth. The meandering paths led us out and into the heart of the old town. A heart that soon revealed itself to be a spreading, wondrous hub for this vibrant, busy city.
Historical building followed historical building. Quaint streets wove cobbled paths past muralled walls, the towering Cathedral, the thought provoking memorial to the 1813 Battle of Vitoria.
Museums abound for those who aren’t accompanied by a dog, children’s playgrounds are everywhere, and the city even provides outdoor, escalator type walkways, to assist the less able, those with bags, or anyone who wants to really, in climbing up and down the central hills.
We sat in a plaza, on a cafe terrace, to catch the last, departing rays of the sun. Cerveza and vino tinto slowly slipped as we watched the night slowly slide across this magnificent Capital city of the Northern Basques.
And then home. Through the pretty, historic streets. Past the apartment buildings. One last turn through the park. And on to Iggy. Waiting patiently, as always, for our return.
My heart full and my brain busy from the sights, thoughts and feelings of the day, I felt the old, familiar urge to give our Iggy a big, big hug.
Him. DM. Marley. And of course Jay. It’s a good life this vanlife. I am on the road. I am travelling. I am home.

The 2018 Bike Shed show has been and gone. For those who were lucky enough to attend the London based event, they were treated to a collection of 239 amazing custom motorcycles from around the UK and Europe. Unfortunately, I was not one of the lucky ones to make the show. The 30,000+ kilometer, 44-hour round trip was the main factor for my absence, but that didn’t stop me from watching the live feeds and photos that were popping up all over the internet. While I sat glued to my phone screen taking it all in I noted a few café racer builds that warranted investigation including this build by Scotlands X-Axis workshop.
The man behind the X-Axis workshop and this sleek Honda CBX750 cafe racer is former British MXGP champion, Billy MacKenzie. After 20 years of racing, Billy shocked his peers with the announcement he was leaving racing to focus on building custom bikes. Since then he’s built an impressive portfolio of custom motorcycles and partnered up with friends and fellow racers Keith and Guy Armor to provide customers with a full service, custom workshop offering. “It has been a natural progression from building our own bikes and is a great path after our years racing as professionals,” says Billy. If you’d like to read more about how he made the transition you can read this article on his website.
After the Bike Shed show had wrapped up Billy found the time to answer a few of my questions about his ’84 Honda CBX750 which you can read below…
What inspired you to build this bike?
My good friend and Isle of Man TT racing legend Keith Amor encouraged me to build a racier version of my original CB750. I had almost purchased another CB because I already had experience with them and wanted to create a better version of my original. Keith preferred the CBX even though it had a super ugly rear end compared to the nice standard lines of the CB model.
Keith ended up buying another CBX750 at the same time so we had matching bikes. I was more enthusiastic about building bikes at the time so he offered up his to help complete this build.
Did you have an outcome in mind when you started the project?
Our main objective was to take an older model bike and make it perform better than a modern-day bike. We also set out to keep the original classic 80’s look, a style that is currently trending within the custom build scene.
Was there anything that influenced the design direction you took?
The CBX styling is comparable on a bike scale to the Ferrari GTO 288. I used this car as a reference point for some of the sweeping lines on the tank and rear end. I also found inspiration from the rear end of a Ferrari Testarossa. Maybe it is just because of the color both Honda and Ferrari share, but it was fun for me to work with the metal and create a fin/light detail for the rear of the bike and stick to our minimal styling approach.
Were there any aspects of the build that proved particularly challenging?
Everything about this bike was a challenge, but a challenge we were ready for and willing to tackle.
We re-routed the oil carrier from inside the steel tubular frame using custom braided oil lines and couplings and re-routed them up to the new oil cooler. This required a little bit machining to route the hoses up the front part of the frame to above the header pipes. We were very happy with how this modification turned out.
We wanted to use as many of the original parts of the bike as we could. We fit a CBR600 front end for performance gains but wanted to retain the standard front wheel. Fitting the forks required a newly machined stem and a highly engineered front wheel to accept the new oversized brake discs, calipers, and front spindle. I have to say the front end of this bike is a work of art and is now a high-performance feature.
We also paid close attention to the details on this build. We literally cut everything down to what we feel is millimeter perfect. The amount of weight we shaved off of the original bike must be crazy, I wish we have measured it before and after!
Can you run us through a few of the other parts that were installed on the bike?
We fit the Honda with a 2-into-1 dual custom exhaust pipes and end cans. There is a custom designed subframe and tail unit and a rear set upgrade with race shift. The engine has undergone Amor tuning and it has a TT race loom. The handling upgrades were finished off with a YSS rear shock upgrade.
How would you say the work you have done has affected the bikes performance?
Everything we have done has massively improved the performance of this bike. We have used this build to showcase our racing DNA background and have put performance as the priority.
What is it about the finished X-AXIS CBX that you like the most?
Everything! I would say mostly the aesthetic design. Everything meets in the center of the bike. The design has a nice rearward flow along tank and the side covers blend perfectly with the shape of the bike and its rider. They were a piece that came together like magic when there was full flow in the workshop. When you sit on the bike it is perfectly balanced and the riding position feels natural.
I also like the finishing touches of the square air filters, exhaust pipes, paint, mesh and the original square headlights. Everything is original and customized then set up using our experience as professional racers.

Our company offers a wide range of proofreading services in social sciences. This section is designed for students, professors, and other social sciences practitioners who would like to polish their documents to perfection. Read on to find out how you can submit social sciences documents for editing and proofreading.
Social scientists work with tons of documents on a daily basis. In college and university, while studying, they are required to submit term and research papers, reviews, theses, and dissertations. Later in their careers, they write journal articles, books, reports, presentations, lectures, and research proposals. Each of these writing types has a purpose of its own.
Scientists start with research papers to proceed with their studies; complete theses to get their degree; write journal articles to prove their name as practicing scientists; write dissertations to advance their academic careers, propose ground-breaking research to get the necessary funding, etc. Our editors have a clear goal of their own, too. They are here to carefully proofread your documents, eliminating all possible flaws and errors, thus making sure that each piece of writing you are working on gets the attention and the recognition it deserves. We are here to make sure social scientists can get their message across in a highly competitive academic publishing environment.
As social science students are working on their university papers, they have to keep so many things in mind. Not only should the paper reflect some innovative ideas and substantiate them with background research; it should also be written and structured in full accord with the formatting requirements of the institution they attend. Needless to mention, the paper should be easy to read, and its major ideas should be conveyed in a highly comprehensive fashion; at the same time, this very assignment should be written in a scientific, sometimes — even sophisticated manner. Obviously, to meet these requirements, students need quite a lot of practice. Careful organization of one’s thoughts also becomes crucial at this stage. The bad news here is that, too often, students are pressed for time. Which, in its turn means, that some minor grammar and style errors can skip their attention on a proofreading stage. The good news, on the other hand, is that our editors are always willing to help, making sure social sciences students submit polished to perfection assignments.
Further writing for academe and scientific journals gets even more challenging — even though, as a graduate, you already have quite a lot of practice with social sciences documents. Publication in an academic journal requires way more than knowledge of the subject and some fresh ideas to convey. Each piece of writing has to be formatted and structured in full accord with the journal requirements — which may differ from the ones you worked with a student. This is exactly where professional proofreading services come in handy. Not only do we check your article for grammar, spelling, punctuation, and format; we also keep a close eye on the way you convey your thoughts. Our social sciences editors come up with useful suggestions on how to improve your writing, make it easier to understand — thus, making sure you can get your message across to the journal editor. This, of course, seriously increases your chances of getting published.
Next, we offer our services to professors all over the globe. We all know that English has become an international language of science, and most impressive publications are written in English. At the same time, we do understand that plenty of social sciences practitioners are non-native speakers, who would benefit from a native editor going through their papers. With us, you get a chance to improve any social sciences document!

Achieving sufficient capacity to meet the forecast backhaul needs over the next few years will be a major challenge. This white paper describes the technique of Air Division Duplexing (ADD), which makes use of MIMO and spatial multiplexing techniques to achieve simultaneous transmission and reception of data on each carrier frequency, and has been shown to achieve full duplex data rates1 in excess of 1 Gb/s in a 28 MHz channel
allocation2 in the microwave bands.
February 19, 2015
While LTE-Advanced brings the promise of higher data rates, designing devices for use in LTE-A offer new test challenges. This paper provides an overview of LTE MIMO and carrier aggregation technologies and describes different methodologies for testing these new capabilities including multi-antenna techniques, MIMO spatial multiplexing, beam steering, as well as the different carrier aggregation modes.
January 30, 2015
This white paper presents an overview of system level design for
wireless communications equipment. It will be useful not just to those involved in the development of new communications systems, but also to designers of new products using existing systems, or anybody seeking to develop new architectures and/or components to reduce product cost and/or size. It also describes the benefits and implications of developing highly integrated System on a Chip (SoC) solutions, which dominate in today's high volume communications products.

With many groups now beginning to consider the drivers for 5th Generation wireless networks, this timely document includes contributions from 20 IWPC member organizations from around the world and aims to advance certain understandings and concepts for adoption in wireless systems to be deployed beyond the year 2020. This 89 page document covers a broad range of 5G topics with emphasis on mm-wave.
February 22, 2013
Now that the need for ultra high capacity radios has become an unofficial requirement with a potentially large market backing it, the call for more spectrum savvy radios is in order. Traditional wisdom would have us assume that the legacy pure-play millimeterwave equipment vendors have this market clenched; however, every time there is a technology shift, as is occurring with the E-Band market, it opens the field up to new market leaders and a new competitive landscape. Thus, we have seen traditional microwave vendors throw their hats into the millimeterwave ring with various levels of commitment from OEMing/private labeling traditional millimeterwave vendors’ radios to designing their own millimeterwave radios.
December 13, 2012
Wireless consumer's insatiable demand for bandwidth has spurred unprecedented levels of investment from public and private sectors to explore new ways to increase network capacity. Service providers, now deploying fourth generation networks, are already beginning to look toward and plan for fifth generation networks (5G) to meet the escalating demand. Researchers at TU Dresden (TUD) have begun investigations into 5G technologies using a graphical system design approach and National Instruments' software defined radio platforms. Using the NI platform, TUD researchers significantly compressed the time to transition from concept to prototype.
September 18, 2012
This application note is designed to provide you with the latest insights on how to best address the long list of test requirements when testing the voice quality of LTE UE, with the right VoIP test building blocks. Successfully providing voice support on LTE will require UE developers to bring together a host of new features and capabilities. Many of these items have been around for a while but have not yet been applied to mobile networking. Others are completely new. Regardless, bringing them together will likely cause significant test pain, as they will need to be tested in conjunction with LTE and/or IMS to be fully exercised.
August 13, 2012
A system that utilizes OFDM/OFDMA, such as the E-UTRA (LTE) downlink or the IEEE 802.11a/g and the IEEE 802.16 physical
layers, transmits OFDM symbols, each comprising a number of modulated sub-carriers carrying data or pilot symbols, with
inter-subcarrier spacing being equal to or an integer multiple of a fixed frequency. The channel bandwidth (B) is determined by
the number of 'occupied' (modulated) subcarriers and the subcarrier spacing.
July 17, 2012
The IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) dates
from 3GPP release 5 almost a decade ago,
but is now becoming a reality with the rollout
of IMS-based LTE networks. IMS enables
convergence on multiple fronts, including
access types (fixed, mobile), service types,
application control functions and convergence
between telephony and traditional data
delivery. This paper presents a high-level technical
view of the IMS architecture as seen by LTEcapable
User Equipment (UE).
April 6, 2012
This white paper summarizes the
technology options for supporting voice
and short message service (SMS) in LTE,
including circuit switched fallback (CSFB),
SMS over SGs, and voice over LTE
(VoLTE). It includes background
information on the standardization
process, and the commercial implications
for the different options. The white paper
also addresses test and measurement
requirements resulting from the support of
voice and SMS in LTE.

So it was time for another road trip. This time south and in the car as I will be picking up my fiance from south of Melbourne. As I am touring, it made sense to take the GT – a Grand Tourer of the old school, built in Europe and designed to cross continents with ease.
An early start was needed as it was going to be a long drive. 6:00am seemed like a good time and I headed out to the freeway from home to beat the city bound traffic. That worked well although the traffic coming up from the south was very heavy at 6:30am. It was dark, cold and after an hour, drizzling rain that just misted up the windscreen – not real rain.
The plan was breakfast at the Paragon Cafe in Goulburn and after 2 hours on the freeway, the cafe was welcoming and quiet. That was the boring bit of the day done. No more freeway, only great country roads!
I left Goulburn and headed out towards Bungendore, passed Wakefield Park and the sun came out and the roads got progessively better. Soon after the track I came across the Royala Solar Farm, a bank of solar panels creating energy all day, every day! I was making good time with the traffic light and running at a good pace. From Bungendore, I carried on to Queanbeyan, my preferred way to get to Canberra without sitting on a freeway all day.
From Queanbeyan, the road loops down south to join the Monaro Highway which took me down to Cooma for a refuel – 400kms from home. Now the real fun starts!
The route took me down Jindabyne Road passed one of the Snowy Mountain Hydro lakes onto the Alpine Way, which has to be one of my favourite roads in Australia. By now the sun was out and the temperature at around 20C and the scenery was simply stunning. I started to stretch the cars engine a tad and it was a great run through to Thredbo.
The landscape here is just what a great GT needs – they used to call this area the Australian Alps, so maybe the car felt at home!
We’re nice and high up here as you can see and all the road markings are yellow not white as in winter this is covered in snow. There are red snow sticks to tell you where the road is! I put both windows down to get the fresh air and to listen to my V8 bouncing through the park. Bliss.
There was a little traffic, so the going was good and I got into a groove through the hundreds of connected corners! As you come down off the mountain, the Autumn vista was stunning, Khancoban looked great.
Corryong was busy, this weekend is their annual Man From Snowy River Festival, so there were horses everywhere and the town centre blocked off. From here it was a straight cruise down the Murray Valley Highway until I turned off for Yackandandah and then on to the Motel on Alpine in Myrtleford for the night.
All up around 800kms and a great run – I must have picked up some bugs along the way as when I finally stopped, a swarm of wasps descended to have a feast!
Tomorrow is another great driving day – over Mount Hotham to Bairnsdale and on to Red Hill south of Melbourne.

Twitter co-founder Isaac “Biz” Stone has announced he will be moving on from the popular microblogging and social networking service Twitter in order to focus on helping schools and non-profits—and relaunching technology incubator The Obvious Corporation with Twitter co-founder Evan Williams.
“The Twitter crew and its leadership team have grown incredibly productive,” Stone wrote in his blog. “I’ve decided that the most effective use of my time is to get out of the way until I’m called upon to be of some specific use.”
Although Stone says he plans to work with Twitter “for many years to come,” his decision to leave the company is just the latest in a series of executive and leadership changes at the San Francisco-based company. Last year, Evan Williams handed over the CEO role to Dick Costolo, and in March Twitter co-founder (and Square CEO) Jack Dorsey returned to the fold as executive chairman to oversee product development.
The Obvious Corporation is a technology incubator dedicated to developing “systems that help people work together to improve the world.” Williams and Stone didn’t outline any specific projects they have lined up for Obvious, but it’s worth noting that Obvious is what originally spawned Twitter five years ago.
In addition to working with Williams at Obvious, Stone plans to dedicate times to non-profits, schools, the Biz and Lydia Stone Foundation, as well as serve on other companies’ advisory boards.

I am about to start my second fantasy army after my first Wood Elves reached 2,000pts.
Here I am struggling in choosing my next army... :x I have a couple choices:
Dark Elves, Ogres, Skaven, or Empire.
I know what each army's strenghs and weaknesses are, and I've played alot of games against them with my Wood Elves. The reason that I can't decide is because all of them are so much fun to play with
Which army is the least popular of the above mentioned four armies?
it all depends on what style you want ur army to have:yes:
"Like frenzied beasts, they was. But I tell you, there was never a sweeter sound than the howls of the Wulfen that night."
Sgt. Pridman, veteran of the Tlax slaughter
I know full well that Skaven excel in number/shooting/some magic, while dark elf is a very aggressive/manuaverable army. To be honest, I love both, that's also why I am having trouble choosing either one :x I'll have both eventually, but right now my budget only allows one, and I am hoping that you guys could just toss in your vote on which army YOU would play. Like I said, I am very casual and I play with what I get, and I'll still have loads of fun :yes:
If I was you I'd pick the ogre kingdoms. Theyre a really cool army and they dont have very many units which could be a bad thing, I guess, depending on the army size you want. But it also means you can spend more time painting and modelling on each miniature to make them just the way you want instead of having to paint hundreds of miniatures.
Ive just got my ogres book and a battalion and have started to paint so Im not sure how they play exactly but according to what people say on LO they seem very fun to play with.
Fun to play with but if they arent played correctly hard to win with so youll either win big or lose big.
Well thats my opinion.
Hope it helped
My vote would go for either Empire or Ogres for the following reasons:
Ive just been putting together an empire army myself and the amount of troops types you can get in plastic is immense! this makes empire very affordable- plus as they are a spanking new army a lot of the new minis are very nice indeed. You can also go to town on the paint schemes, making up your own livery etc They are also fun to play as the army list allows for lots of different playstyles
Ogres are an army ive considered for a long time myself- the minis are great and i love the idea of an army made up of hulking ogres! the only thing thats put me off is the fact that a lot of the minis seem to be multi-part metals which are a particular bane of mine!
PLAN CLAN MAN!!
He who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man- S. Johnson
Well here are my two cents:
I don't like the idea of scaven much so I would say don't go with them them :-P. Next, a friend of mine plays OK and they are a pretty cool army with cool models. Empire seems to have lots of cool things and it is the most like the core "human" idea. I really like the fact that you can make your whole are look together with a cool paint scheme since they all are wearing uniforms! Only problem is that I've heard that this is a VERY common army. I've only ever played against one guy with empire but if truely that many people play empire...well it is kinda like well I don't want to be like everyone else. :w00t: So my vote is DE or OK.
Armies: Wood Elves, High Elves
Warbands Campaign 07: 1st
San Antonio Alamo GT
i think OK would probably be the most different from your wood elves, a nice change of pace with much less shooting and tough powerful models rather than those flimsy elves however you would again be having a few very expensive models in an army, i might stay away from DE because i believe they're due for an update sometime next year....if its me i woudltn want to buy and paint a bunch of old models if there are new very beautiful ones in the works (i think the quality of GW's models recently has improved IMMENSELY...look at wood elves, ogre kingdoms, new empire...can wait for HE). Empire and skaven would be different with lots of cheap block units plus some fun, kinda random shooty things.... I really dont think you can go wrong with any of the choices, just decide if you want a radically different playing style than you have now or if you want to stay with the same sort of thing
I would go with the most different play-style of the group. Dark Elves are too similar to Wood Elves in my opinion...not so much in play style but I would get bored of playing with the same stat line and overpriced infantry.
Empire is alright, but bores me personally. It will look nice on the table, but you will still have to suffer with T3 and low armour saves.
Ogres get you into the big guys with the nice feeling of having a T4, but they seem to be most effective actually in small maneuverable units, which is strangely close to Wood Elves.
My vote would be Skaven because you cant get much more different in play style. Big blocks of models, crazy almost-independents. Plus you get to model some dirty nasty stuff after all of those fairies.
But in the end I would advise borrowing the books for all of the armies you listed, playing a few games each with proxies, and seeing which you like most.
Staunch supporter of rigid Moderation.
i would go with DE because the models are all very cool and are fun to paint, other then
that they are a very nice army that has a lot of underutilized strengnths. if you need more info you should go to the DE form and ask around,its pretty active(not as active as the WE one but sitill its active lol)

The biggest issue that you absolutely have to overcome if you actually want to be a writer is that you need to do it all the time.
Lots of people think they could write a book, and a lot of them are probably right, but a significantly smaller number are going to commit the time necessary to actually do it.
For me, it’s always been a question of allowing myself to write as little or as much as I like without feeling guilty about it. I let myself get down, thinking that I don’t have “enough time,” or I didn’t “get anything done,” and the not-writing just perpetuates itself. Frankly, it IS much easier to NOT write and feel bad about it than it is to actually write something. So, I’ve historically followed that path of least resistance.
I’ve also noticed over time that each individual who wants to write is going to do it in his or her own way. You can get all sorts of advice on how to write, or what it’s like to be a real writer, but there is no real prescription other than to DO IT. The experience of writing my thesis taught me that I am at my best and most productive when I can sequester myself for a length of time, and completely wipe out distractions. I am horrible at working in coffee shops, for example. It’s risky for me to even be in the same room with a TV if I want to really make headway on a writing project.
Letting those issues completely paralyze me is a problem, though. I might need a week’s vacation or some other sort of “writing retreat” to make significant progress in a hurry, but by not doing anything most days, all I’m ensuring is that absolutely no progress happens. So, in the same spirit as picking up the blog again, I am going to set a very small and reachable goal for myself to get some writing done on a daily basis. Thirty minutes. I am going to commit to spending just half an hour per day working on a piece of writing. By the end of the first week, I will have written for three-and-a-half more hours than I did last week. It’s time to develop some beneficial habits.

The Adjustment of Canadian Import Demand to Changes in Income, Prices, and Exchange Rates
Timothy A. Deyak,
W. Charles Sawyer and
Richard L. Sprinkle
Canadian Journal of Economics, 1993, vol. 26, issue 4, 890-900
This paper provides estimates of the sensitivity of Canadian import demand to changes in income, prices, and exchange rates. The model specification allows for the consideration of long-run elasticities as well as the dynamics of short-run adjustment of imports to changes in these variables. The estimated long-run elasticities obtained are similar to those in previous studies. It is also shown that Canadian imports react quickly to changes in either foreign or domestic prices, but that the reaction to changes in exchange rates is much slower.

The story that brought us the ‘Twilight’ saga fell in love with an entire generation, we let ourselves be carried away by the plot in each of the films but wow, there were several absurd moments. (Even Robert Pattinson thought his character was ridiculous)
The popular series of romance and supernatural events films, Twilightstarred Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. These actors gained great recognition for their roles in the filmAlthough, we must say, in the end the taste in the mouth for the actors was not the most satisfactory.
Every fictional story has its ‘impossible’ moments, yes, we are talking about all the incredible events that for some reason often seem absurd outside the ‘normal’ context of human life. On this occasion, we present you the moments of Twilight crazier than maybe you missed.
The glowing skin of vampires in the sun
You will remember that when Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) or any of his family members were directly exposed to the sun, their skin shone like diamonds, but, aren’t vampires pulverized in contact with the sun? When did this version change for Twilight?
When Edward saves Bella
Recall that, at the end of the Twilight movie, the vampire antagonist James (Cam Gigandet) bites Bella (Kristen Stewart) and almost turns her into a vampire. This did not happen thanks to another vampire, Edward, also biting her to extract the poison from her. Let’s stop here; Why, if they’re both vampires, could one’s bite not turn Bella and the other’s? It’s weird, isn’t it?
The kisses between Bella and Edward
It is well known that fictional vampire characters in movies and books are as rigid and hard as marble. About this, we also wonder how Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) and Bella (Kristen Stewart) could kiss so easily, as well as hug each other and that Bella didn’t end up frozen with the cold body of her beloved vampire. Maybe you hadn’t thought of it, but it really doesn’t make sense.
a vegetarian vampire
In the scene where Bella (Kristen Stewart) accidentally cuts her finger in the middle of a meeting with the Cullens, Jasper (Jackson Rathbone) becomes overly concerned with the smell of blood. Despite the fact that this character is undergoing training on a new vegetarian diet, why does he act like this with Bella and can he control himself better at school where nosebleeds are the order of the day due to fights and accidents? Bella was quite irresistible…
Edward needs the Volturi to die.
Thinking that Bella (Kristen Stewart) had died, Edward (Robert Pattinson) decides that there is no point in living an eternity without the fleeting existence of his beloved. This fact makes him want to commit suicide, and the only option he saw feasible was to die at the hands of the Volturi. Wasn’t it more discreet and faster to die at the hands of humans or the wolves themselves? We don’t think Edward really wanted to leave this world.
The cliché of short pants to dress the werewolf characters is still used in the Twilight saga, but the most interesting thing is to really know, where do they get so many pants of that style every time they tear their clothes apart when they become ?, Have you ever wondered before?
Lethal training in a couple of hours guaranteed!
In the Eclipse installment there was a confrontation between the main characters. Avenging the death of James (Cam Gigandet) was one of the reasons that led to a great battle, and for this, Jasper trained the members of his family and enlisted them in just a few hours. Coincidentally, they came out winners.
Perhaps you have never been bothered to think carefully about these somewhat absurd events of the Twilight saga, and we understand, the emotion did not really let you see how unconvincing the arguments in some parts of the story. After some time, only Robert Pattinson dared to say that his vampire character was a bit ridiculous, and on second thought, it was a bit. What do you think?

Unless one has been asleep or living on the moon, they know of Twitter. It has evolved into the world’s greatest cocktail party, and no one has to clean up afterwards, or even pay the tab. It’s the new electronic campfire we sit around to talk and laugh and even sing. It’s an endless conversation like no other, and it’s just starting to pick up steam. We’ve all heard about how news breaks on Twitter before it hits any of the traditional journalistic outlets, and how it’s being used by emergency responders in difficult situations around the world. But the potential overall cultural impact of Twitter is just beginning to be evaluated and processed. Twitter is the new water cooler for the creative class — the social break room for people who don’t work in an office. And for those who do, it’s the ultimate coffee break. With five or ten minutes of total immersion, you can be socializing with people all over the country and around the globe, sharing quick tales of weal and woe that range from the mundane to the supernatural There’s instant advice, encouragement, and information to be had any time you stick your toes into the Twitter stream – if you’ve found a good spot on the bank of this wild new river to perch. I’ve been using and enjoying this novel social medium and “micro-blog” website under the carefully devised codename, TomVMorris, for about six months. And I’ve briefly mentioned it in a couple of previous blogs. Given all this, as a philosopher I admit I have a keen eye for something that surprised me at first given the millions of tweets that run down the Twitter stream….wisdom, or what I have coined “Twisdom, my term for Twitter wisdom.
It (Twitter) is not necessarily telling your 50 or so followers what you ate for your last meal; And it’s not just about Ashton, Demi, or Jennifer Anniston, or who can attract the most followers the in the fastest period of tie. It’s about building a new form of community. It’s about learning. It’s about support, inspiration, and daily motivation. And it’s also about fun. But the most important aspect of Twitter may be that, if you do things right, you begin to surround yourself with an incredible group of people eager to share their best questions and insights about life. They’re all looking for new wisdom and hope. Twisdom is the result.There’s collaborative thinking on Twitter at a level and in a form I’ve never seen on any social netork, or even the entire Internet for that matter. Almost every day, and often many times a day, a topic comes up that causes me, as a philosopher and simply a curious individual, to ponder a bit, and then share the results of that pondering in the 140 character increments, known as tweets; as that is the maximum per post Twitter permits each user.
Sometimes a tweet from one will spark another comment. Before I know it, people of different ages and walks of life from around the world are engaged with me and each other in an extended conversation of brief bursts that add up to new realizations for everyone involved. I’ve gone from two followers to several thousand without doing anything to “build a following” on Twitter. This means that, when I send a Twittered message, that many people in principle could read it right away. And if they like it, they can retweet it, or copy and send it on to their network of friends, many of whom might then, if they also resonate with what I’ve said, continue to send it repeatedly and then maybe even become my direct Twitter followers in return. In turn, seeing their use of my own original thought being “twittered”, I might join their group of friends, and vice versa. The power of this social network known as Twitter seems to have taken on a life of its own, offering regular people a chance to purvey their often powerful message.
Younger friends encouraged me to try Twitter. My older peers seemed to discourage me. And I now understand both points of view. As an experiment, I once clicked on the universal Twitter stream named “Everyone” that was available for a while on the basic Twitter web page. This immersed me in the main current of tweets from all over the world. I refreshed the page every four seconds, scanning and reading everything I could as fast as I was able, and I did this for a stretch of ten minutes — an eternity in TwitterTime. It was quite an experience.I didn’t see any quotations from great thinkers. There were no deeper musings on life. There didn’t seem to be much real social interaction. There were just lots of soliloquies on the painfully trivial. Sometimes an overabundance of profanity of which I was not interested. Plenty of Twitterers were simply complaining and venting about everyday life’s issues. There was also some high-pressure sales and “spam”. But there was almost nothing that resembled my own little Twitter group that I have come to appreciate and enjoy each day.
Like almost everything else in our world, Twitter is what we make of it. I’ve met lots of people who want to use it to think, touch lives, work together, and support each other. My little community there is an amazing circle of novelists, cartoonists, comic book writers and illustrators, editors, consultants, corporate and personal coaches, journalists, executives, marketing experts, moms, dads, and various celebrities who sometimes show up as just real people with a strong interest in ideas, and in being helpful with their time. It’s a self-selected collection of vibrant and generous personalities thinking and playing together daily. And that has set the stage for what I really didn’t expect.
In the short bursts of thought and commentary that Twitter allows, we can all turn into philosophical aphorists. Critics may be tempted to dismiss what results as nothing more than fortune cookie wisdom, without the cookie. But the nuggets of insight, or twisdom, that Twitter allows can in principle be much more than that. What we find in Twitter exchanges won’t typically replicate the results of a Yale philosophy seminar, or a colloquium at Notre Dame. It’s a place not for abstruse theory but for practical insight. And yet the insights can run quite deep. As Steven Johnson recently said in a Time Magazine cover story on the whole phenomenon, “Twitter turns out to have surprising depth.” One tweet can change your life, or on a much smaller scale, make your day. If you don’t use Twitter already, you may find it at times unexpectedly helpful for a contemplation of the wonder and mystery of your life. I’m not saying that you’ll always find world-historical profundity on Twitter. Twisdom is often more down to earth and humble than that. It’s frequently just a reminder of something we know and need to live. Or it’s a slightly new angle on an old realization.
It’s a matter of perspective. Or it’s a call to action, and an inspiration to go take some initiative. I think Twitter has already made me a better thinker. I’ve experienced new insights there that have arisen in a genuinely novel way, out of the collective thinking that occurs in short bursts, and on the run. But that’s how we do most things these days — in short bursts, and on the run. So perhaps the twisdom that has come about in the same way may be well suited to the situations we confront, and the insights we need, at precisely this moment in time.If the idea of Twisdom interests you, one way to explore it is to find me on Twitter, as TomVMorris, and I’ll introduce you around to the sages there that I already know, the people who inspire me each day. And, who knows, you may even end up pondering some of the mysteries of life with Ashton — or at least find out what he had for lunch.

90% OF BUYERS WILL FIRST SEARCH ONLINE FOR THEIR NEXT PROPERTY TO PURCHASE!
When selling your property, it is in your best interest to list it with a Broker who uses the right technology to get maximum online exposure for your listing. By using cutting edge digital marketing in this technological age, I have the tools necessary to maximize your property’s exposure, therefore selling your property for more money, in less time.
In addition to using advanced technology to get your property sold, I still use the following traditional marketing to help get the job done:
- Guidance in home preparation and staging your home
- Professional photographs
- Floor plans
- Graphic artist designed feature sheets
- Open Houses (when appropriate)
- List your property on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS)
To be ahead of the competition it’s important to break the traditional boundaries and to be readily available to the new wave of buyers who begin their search online when buying a property.
Below are the tools I will use to get your property sold!
INDIVIDUAL LISTING WEBSITE & GOOGLE PAY PER CLICK
Your property will have its own website that will be listed at the top of the search engine through Google Ad words campaigns. When a seller is looking for a specific neighbourhood or building, your property’s site will be the first they see.
VIRTUAL TOUR/OPEN HOUSE
Ryan Coyle’s team will have a virtual tour prepared from the professional photographs that have been taken of your home .Your Open House provides online users, including users from the other side of the globe who can view your property and take a self–guided tour. Visitors can take a tour of all the rooms of your house at their own pace. I will have a professional photographer take photos of your property shortly after you list. Your tour will be online almost immediately. This is a great way to increase exposure of your home and will generate more interest in your property than any amount of still photography or information sheets.
This virtual tour will be will be created for your listing that is then loaded on to my personal YouTube.com channel. My channel has well over 3,000 views to date, further evidence that Youtube has worked as a great tool for me to get your property amazing exposure. More buyers are looking here today.
I quickly market your property to over 30,000 Realtors across Canada and the US through a mass email blast. Everyone who matters will know your property is for sale.
SOCIAL MEDIA, KIJIJI, CRAIGSLIST & ALL THE REST
Beyond using the traditional channels to reach your consumer, I actively engage several social media and online channels to increase your exposure. It is important to constantly be posting your listing on all of the important website that consumers first visit to search for a property. I have full-time staff posting all of my listings on these sites every day, 6 days a week. We are always on or close to the first pages and our listings receive 100’s of views per day from around the globe. This is a big reason for my successes.

I am running Zimbra 5.0.10_GA_2638 on SLES10.
I want to set these services :
- archive all message which can transit by the zimbra system
- send a copy of each mail (in/out) for certain user to certain user (external user on another mail domain).
The first point is accomplish by the always_bcc option in postfix conf file. Every mail is send to an archive mailbox.
I want to accomplish the second point by set up some filters rules (forward rules) on the archive mailbox. But, the forward rules create a mail loop in the Zimbra system (forwaded mail are also examine by the forward rule).
In fact, I can't determine if a mail is a forwarded mail by the archive mailbox or an original mail. Indeed, the forwarded mail are forwarded without any change to the mail or any change that I can distinguish bye mail filter.
If I can distinguish the two mails types , I could set a rule to ignore forwarded mail.
Is there a solution ?
(Sorry for my poor english, I'm french)

Today is Wednesday, October 28th. According to my desktop countdown gizmo I have 23 days and 16 some odd hours to 7:00am on Sunday, November 22nd which not coincidentally is when the flag drops on the starting line at the 2015 Philadelphia Marathon.
My starting corral is so far back…It’s so far from the front that I will enjoy full and private use of my choice of a porta john well after the official start at 7am.
And it really doesn’t matter when you cross the start since your chip time is your chip time and all you have to do is deduct 25 or 30 minutes from each mile market clock for your ballpark time until your brain fuzzes over and you don’t care what time it is.
Then you start to play mileage math. Let’s see I just passed 15 so that means – Dang -still 11 to go. You get the picture.
I have installed the ten day Philadelphia weather forecast on the bookmarks bar but have not been checking it obsessively just yet. Mostly I’m waiting, running and waiting for that Sunday a couple of weeks hence.
I can’t say the ” Hay is in the Barn” since my training is not quite complete and frankly with 23 days ( see above) to go all the hay that I need to put in the barn will not happen. How can you be out of time with three weeks to go?
Easy – With 26 miles looming after a summer of nagging injuries the hay or training or miles are all a bit on the short side. Surely enough to cover 13.1 and maybe even get to the 18 or 19 neighborhood. But big bopper 26 is gonna be a reach.
Honestly, it’s always a reach and that’s what makes it so desirable and compelling isn’t it?
If we all knew that running 26 was a breeze then it wouldn’t hold the anticipation it does on the starting line or the meaning that it does at the finish line.
There’s a line for a future post eh? ” The Meaning at the Finish Line.”

Are you ready for first cutting of alfalfa?
The first cutting of alfalfa typically has the highest yield and quality, therefore, it’s time to prepare for a successful first harvest.
Dairy producers recognize the importance of high quality alfalfa in dairy cattle rations. High quality alfalfa in the ration provides protein, energy, and minerals and increases milk production while maintaining low feed costs and proper rumen function. According to Michigan State University Extension, one of the most important factors in determining alfalfa quality is its maturity at harvest. As alfalfa matures its fiber content increases while its fiber and dry matter digestibility decrease. On the flip side, if alfalfa is harvested at an immature stage it becomes difficult to feed because its fiber level is too low for most high producing cows. Also, the yield of the first cutting of alfalfa is typically the largest of the year accounting for 35-40 percent of the year’s total crop. Thus, timing of first harvest is always a balance between these two nutritional factors, plus early harvest tends to lower the life of alfalfa stands.
When alfalfa is fed to high producing lactating dairy cows the goal is to harvest it at 40 percent neutral detergent fiber (NDF) content. At this fiber content the dairy producer and dairy nutritionist are provided with a feed that gives the cow adequate fiber for normal rumen function and maintains high feed intake necessary for good milk production. It also provides flexibility to keep the cow’s ration at the proper energy density, keep protein supplementation at a reasonable level, and maintain good overall animal health. For a more complete discussion of these very important issues I recommend reading “Timing Spring Alfalfa Harvest—The Final Word?” an excellent Michigan State University publication.
Usually the yield of alfalfa dry matter is the highest at the first cutting, thus, timing first cutting to get an optimal NDF level is very critical. Currently the best method to use for timing optimal first cutting is harvesting based on accumulated growing degree days (GDD). Growing degree days are a temperature-based index measuring the amount of accumulated heat the crop has been exposed to during the first portion of the growing season. Growing degree days are calculated by averaging each daily minimum and maximum temperature beginning March 1, then subtracting the base temperature of 41 degrees F to get the number of GDD’s for each day, then keeping a running total. Daily GDD for days with an average temperature of less than 41F are not counted. Research, much of it performed by Michigan State University scientists, has shown that in the upper Midwest alfalfa averages about 40 percent NDF when 750 GDD’s are accumulated. It takes an additional 220 GDD to reach 45 percent NDF, thus, beginning harvest at 750 GDD’s will give about a 7-day window to complete alfalfa harvest before 45 percent NDF is reached (unless weather is abnormally hot).
To estimate the accumulated GDD’s for your area, visit the Michigan State University Enviro-weather website. This website, funded in part by Project GREEEN, lists weather-related data from over 80 computerized weather stations across the state of Michigan. The homepage of the website has a map of Michigan denoting these weather stations. By clicking on the weather station closest to your farm you can access a wealth of weather data such as the latest weather observations, overnight temperatures, rainfall, soil conditions, and growing degree days. To access GDD’s for alfalfa, click on the link labeled “Temperature, rainfall and degree-day summary.” On the next page you will be able to “add another column of degree day calculations” by entering “41” in the “Base Temperature” box and clicking on “Add GDD Column.” For alfalfa harvest be sure to look at the column labeled “Degree Days Base 41F.”
Forage prices are at historical highs as heat, drought, and reduced hay acreage played havoc with hay and corn silage production in 2012. The USDA reports U.S. average alfalfa hay price was $219/ton for March; while anecdotal reports indicate high quality alfalfa hay going for as much as $400/ton in some areas of the U.S. Also a recent USDA report showed nationwide alfalfa/alfalfa mixed hay production down 15 percent nationwide and down 17.5 percent in Michigan. Therefore, the production of high quality alfalfa is even more important than ever. Harvesting a high yield of high quality alfalfa will lower dairy producers feed costs as they will have to purchase less protein supplements and/or less substitute forages. Proper alfalfa management may even allow some of the forage to be sold on the open market at the current premium prices.

The Ford 8n tractor remains one of the most popular small tractors of all time. Manufactured from 1939-1952, many of these well-built machines are still in working order today. While there are differences depending on the year the tractor was built, the basic driving operations are the same.
Depress the clutch under your left foot and hold one of the two brakes with your right foot. Put the tractor into neutral. Set the hand throttle to about 1/3 with your right hand.
Pull the choke half way and press the starter for about three seconds. If the engine doesn't fire, depress the choke and try again. The engine should start after a few tries. Allow the engine to warm up for a couple of minutes before driving.
Check to make sure any bucket or implements are off the ground. The bucket is raised hydraulically with a lever on your right. Also, check the lever beneath the seat on the left to make sure the power take off (PTO) is turned off.
Put the tractor into gear and ease off the clutch. Pull down on the throttle to increase the engine RPMs, or up to reduce the engine speed.
To stop the tractor, depress the clutch and press on one or both of the brake pedals with your right foot. The forward pedal operates the left rear wheel's brake, where the rear pedal operates the right rear wheel's brake.
