Thanks Denzil. I think what I like best about these environments is it the opportunistic nature and strength of the plants that colonise it – it gives me hope for our wildlife’s determination to keep going despite our best efforts to subdue it!
The flora of dunes and the seashore is something quite unique isn’t it? You have captured the diversity brilliantly!

The Bahá'í Faith dawned on 22 May 1844 when Mirza 'Ali-Muhammad of Shiraz, known as the Báb, the Gate, arose to fulfil His twofold mission, infusing the land with wonderful spiritual attractions and heralding to the world One Who was immensely greater than Himself, Who would inaugurate a fresh and unprecedented era in the spiritual history of mankind. The Báb's untold sufferings and imprisonments, the heroism and sacrifices of His disciples, the circumstances of His tragic martyrdom and the afflictions experienced by His community, are vividly detailed in every book exploring the Faith.
The One foretold by the Báb, Bahá'u'lláh, the Splendour of God, arose in 1863 whilst an exile in Baghdad, attracting all around by His spiritual presence, transforming people to great spiritual heights, admonishing the kings and powers of the world, laying down the divine principles of a new civilization. Bitterly opposed and stripped of all property and rights, reliant solely upon God, exiled to Iraq, Constantinople, Adrianople, and incarcerated in the penal colony of 'Akká, Bahá'u'lláh suffered untold sufferings, yet conquered every challenge and adversity that rose up against Him, passing eventually from this world in 1892.
The authorized Interpreter and personal Example of Bahá'í teachings, was Bahá'u'lláh's most remarkable eldest son 'Abdu'l-Bahá (Servant of Bahá). Bahá'u'lláh appointed Abdu'l-Bahá as the Centre to whom all should turn for instruction and guidance. Ever since a child, 'Abdu'l-Bahá shared all the sorrows and sufferings of Bahá'u'lláh. He remained a prisoner until 1908, when the regime in Turkey became overthrown and religious and political prisoners liberated. Whilst continuing to make Palestine his home, Abdu'l-Bahá undertook extensive tours of Egypt, Europe and America, as well as visiting London, Edinburgh and Bristol in the United Kingdom, ceaselessly explaining and exemplifying the principles of the Bahá'í Faith, inspiring and directing the activities of friends and followers throughout the world, transforming the lives, hearts and minds of all levels of society, interacting freely and wholly at home with both the prominent and the down-trodden. He passed away in 1921 in Haifa, Palestine.
Abdu'l-Bahá appointed his grandson Shoghi Effendi to succeed him as Guardian of the Faith, who raised up and established the framework of the Bahá'í Faith. Shoghi Effendi passed away in 1957, and in 1963 the Universal House of Justice was established as the central guiding institution of the Faith.
Today the Bahá'í Faith is numbered around six million adherents, and is the second-most geographically widespread religion in the world after Christianity.
The Bahá'í Faith began to take firm root in Stornoway itself from 1953, and has since that time grown in different areas of the Isle of Lewis, North and South Uist, and Barra.
The Isle of Lewis recently celebrated 100 years of the visit of Abdu'l-Baha to the British Isles, with a monthly programme of events.

Hello my name is a Paul Taylor and over the past 30 years I have worked in a number of different areas (such as change management, operational management, and career development) across many industries (such as financial services, oil/gas, freelancing, charity and professional bodies).
I love being a mentor and helping people to fulfill their potential. I have mentored several people over the past four years (covering areas such as CV writing, going freelance, start-ups, change management, knowing when to leave a job plus many many other areas).
Therefore I will be able to use my years of experience to overcome the challenges, issues, obstacles, etc that you are encountering.
I am a mom, wife, sales leader, body language expert and productivity junkie. My life is about living, learning and sharing the knowledge with like minded people. This is the reason I am here. Originally from Moscow, Russia I followed my dreams and am currently residing in PA, USA with my husband and two boys.
I’m born and bred in The Netherlands and came in 2005 to Australia where I still live together with my wife and two daughters. I have about 30 years of experience in business, I’m multilingual with an international focus. Since 1997 I have been operating on Board level (COO and CEO) in Europe (Netherlands, Belgium and Germany), US (Boston, Massachusetts) and in Australia (WA, QLD, NSW, VIC and SA). I consider myself as an experienced manager, leader and strategist.
My passion is to build and grow companies. Whether it is a start-up or a mature company, the challenges to become or stay relevant are pivotal to any business. I have been involved as CEO of Technology Parks and incubators in many companies in a variety of industries, and I became sector agnostic. Since the last 7 years I became more and more involved with not for profit or for benefit organisations, which I find very inspiring and give me the opportunity to give back to society.
I have been mentoring businesses and individuals over the years, which I enjoy very much. I have met so many interesting people and some I can call friend now. I’m a big believer in innovation, collaboration and diversity and mentoring is an excellent way to support this.
Having been a leader in the military for 20-years, and now leading teams in the civilian sector, I am equipped to handle a breadth of mentoring issues. I am easy to talk to, straight forward in my advice, and a sought out mentor to many I come in contact with. I can give career advice in general, education goal setting, legal path decisions, or general managing people help.

PACE Youth Program provides life-skills training to adjudicated youth, giving them an opportunity to complete their term of probation in the community, while providing the necessary training. We work with adjudicated youth by providing the necessary skills that enhance (P)roper self-image, (A)cademics, (C)haracter and (E)mployment, and encourage an attitude to become productive members of society.
PACE offers dinner for the youth and parents before each meeting, and also incorporates field trips, music, and games into the program. Volunteers include coaches and leaders with successful careers and families, who demonstrate by example–showing the value of being successful in the community.
After 12 weeks of education, training, and fellowship, PACE leadership hosts a graduation ceremony honoring those who have completed the program. Each graduate receives a Completion Certificate and a T-shirt.
The goal of PACE for parents is to give parents tangible and useful tools to utilize in their everyday lives. As part of the 12-week program, PACE supports parents and helps parents and youth through dynamic interactive experiences that help change unhealthy mindsets and values by practicing exercises designed to affirm self-worth and improve communication between youth and parent. Additionally, PACE helps parents develop skills that help them raise positive productive citizens. PACE provides parents with information on self-esteem, anger management, discipline and communication.
The program allows parents and youth to bond again and lift self-esteem, but it also takes youth and parents through learning experiences that build character and demonstrate problem-solving between them. Each week parents and youth are challenged and encouraged to return to class with feedback to share with others. Meals are provided weekly.
Our investment in our community is to better equip parents and to expand their capacity for parenting, which ultimately enhances our community and society.

If you’re like me and mine, and I like to think we are nothing but typical examples of the student struggle, then you’re excited to get into the workforce but have no idea where to start. For Media, Arts and Production students especially, getting into the film or theatre production world seems near impossible, and that’s including those that already have some connections.
Designed to give students the inside scoop on their chosen industry, The Job Truth Series is a joint effort between ActivateSocial, UTS Backstage, Activate UTS, UTS Careers and UTSoC, which aims to show communications students what they should expect when breaking into the workforce.
This Tuesday’s session is specially-planned for students with an interest in Media, Arts and Production, with professionals from the film and theatre industries joining a panel to give you tips on how to break into the field, and what it’s really like once you’re there. The panel covers a diverse range of professions, from film directing to theatre production and beyond. The best bit? They’ll answer all of your burning questions, so you can get a head start on planning your career.
Aaron Liu, a third-year MAPS student, is excited for the event, and to see how he can put his degree to practical use. "I love MAPS! I like how the course provides workshops for people who don't know how to use the cameras or programs that are necessary for assignments. The group tasks are super fun because we can work like an actual production crew creating videos”, he said.
“I'm keen to see how aspiring film makers like myself can get my foot in the door and hopefully be able to do what I love as a job."
Nate Edmondson: An international, multi-award-winning Composer and Sound Designer for film, television, stage and advertising.
The Job Truth Series: Media, Arts and Production is on this Tuesday 17 April 2018, 5.30pm – 6.30pm at ActivateSocial, 15 Broadway Street, Sydney, Australia, 2007. Register here for tickets.
Bronte Gossling is a third-year (oh my god, already?!) Journalism/International Studies (Spain) student, who has a penchant for being super organised but is also perpetually late to any and all engagements. Nice.

HomeOur New Daughter’s Name, Rimon Hadasa, OR, What Do Purim, Pesach, Circumcision, And Wood Skewers Have In Common?
Thank God, we have another daughter. Everyone is healthy and the birth went well, though there was a scare that turned out to be nothing in the end, caused by a broken monitor that had a team of doctors rush in to do an emergency C-section. But the midwives stopped that and got control of the situation, got a new monitor, everything was fine, and 10 minutes later she was born. I was sitting at home working when my parents called to say Natasha was in labor and I should get to the hospital. So I leisurely started putting on my shoes and was starting to head out. By the time I got to the car my father came around the corner and asked me how many pounds is 2.8kg.
She came out fast. It was the first birth I actually missed, but it’s OK. It was a good thing I wasn’t there during the emergency C-section scare. I would have freaked out. My mother and mother in law handled it all pretty well.
We named her on Shabbat, Rimon Hadasa Farber רימון הדסה פרבר. Here’s the story and meanings behind it.
Natasha’s grandfather (poppy) Murray, משה בן אסתר, passed away last year. He was 90. About a day or two before he died, we found out that Natasha was pregnant. It was a surprise for us, but a pleasant one. It was way too early to tell anyone. We had just found out, but we decided to tell grandma and poppy anyway because we all knew he was slipping away and he should know before he died. So on his deathbed, through Skype, we told him that we would name the baby after him.
We wanted an ‘R’ and ‘M’ sound in the name for Murray, and picked Rimon, Hebrew for pomegranate. I myself am named for two great grandmothers Raizel and Feigle, hence the R and F in my own name, so we did a similar thing here. Hadasa, Rimon’s middle name, is Queen Esther’s Hebrew name. Esther was her Persian name.
We were quite hesitant about the name Rimon at first. We liked it personally and it sounds nice to an American ear, but we both knew that to an Israeli it sounds like “hand grenade” which is another modern meaning. That wouldn’t have been a problem by itself but we also have a daughter named Serach (שרח) which is a name I love because I love the character and the story behind her. She is Asher’s daughter, Jacob’s granddaughter, who is mentioned in the list of 70 people going down to Egypt in Breisheet and also coming out of Egypt in Bamidbar. According to some sources, she – not Ruth – is the first convert, adopted by Asher. Given that she’s mentioned both going in and coming out of Egypt, she lived at least 210 years, and some Midrashic sources say she never died.
Anyway, we call her Serri and she is beautiful, I mean really. Many times Israelis stare at her and tell me that, and then ask her name. And I say her name is שרח. Then what usually happens is that they correct me and say something like “In Hebrew it’s pronounced Sarah, not Serach.” And then I have to insist that her name is not Sarah, and that I know my daughter’s name, thank you very much. I’ve had to do this many times, and those are the easy encounters. At worst, they look at her, tell me she’s pretty, and ask me her name, I tell them שרח, and they say, “Why did you give her such an ugly name?” Those are the really “Israeli” Israelis.
See, in Hebrew, Serach sounds like מסריח , which means “stinky”. We knew this. It has absolutely nothing to do with the name though, and we weren’t going to let that stop us from giving her a name that we actually wanted and admired.
Anyway, two days after Rimon was born, before she was named, I was at the post office with Serri and the same thing happened. We were the only ones there and the two clerks, both women, commented that’s she’s pretty and asked her name. I tell them Serach. And again, they correct me and say it’s not pronounced Serach, it’s Sarah. And again I insist that I am not a stupid American who doesn’t know Hebrew, I know what my daughter’s name is, and her name is SERACH. Asher’s daughter. It’s in the Tanach, in Hebrew.
“How do you spell it, with a ה or a ח?” one of them asks.
“A ח. שרחחחחחח,” I emphasize and extend the ח.
Then I made a mistake. They ask me if she has any other sisters. Absentmindedly I say that she just got a new sister two days ago.
“And what’s her new sister’s name?” they ask.
A lesson – not telling people the name before the naming is important, because it can create doubts.
We were going to name her on Thursday but I didn’t wake up early enough for the 6:15 minyan, thinking that subconsciously maybe I was having second thoughts. So we thought it over again Natasha and I, and we decided, definitely Rimon. Here’s why.
I’m not the kind of person that looks into “signs from heaven”, but I don’t discount the possibility of them, or of God trying to tell me something, just an ordinary person. So the following I’ll just say that maybe God was trying to get me to name her Rimon, and maybe I’m just reading into things, but then these are pretty crazy coincidences. Interpret however makes you feel comfortable, but this all happened.
The robe for the ephod was made of woven work, of pure blue. The opening of the robe, in the middle of it, was like the opening of a coat of mail, with a binding around the opening, so that it would not tear. On the hem of the robe they made pomegranates of blue, purple, and crimson yarns, twisted. They also made bells of pure gold, and attached the bells between the pomegranates, all around the hem of the robe, between the pomegranates: a bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate, all around the hem of the robe for officiating in—as God had commanded Moses.
Now, about two weeks before she was born, when we were already mostly set on Rimon but I was still having some doubts, our community was honoring the חברה קדישא, the “Holy Gang,” volunteers who clean and dress the dead for burial. Thanks to my friend Ezra, I am on the Chevreh Kadisha. The week the shul was honoring the Chevreh was Parashat Pekudei, the Parasha about the Cohen Gadol’s clothing. They gave me שלישי, the third Aliyah, which begins with that exact passage about pomegranates and bells all around the Kohen Gadol. In no other place in the Torah does the word Rimon appear so frequently, five times in three psukim! I am imagining that God is ringing off the pomegranate bells that this is her name. Ding ding! Use it! פעמון ורימון פעמון ורימון OK OK I get the point!
But it didn’t stop there. Thursday night the next week, our parents are both with us helping to watch the kids, waiting for Natasha to give birth. The city is hosting a dinner at a nice restaurant for the Chevreh Kadisha and their spouses, and Natasha and I finally get to go out on a date to a nice restaurant without the kids thanks to our parents.
Rimonim all over the place. I get the point. Her name is Rimon. Rimon is coming.
Why pomegranate wood? Because the lamb must be entirely roasted by fire, and not by a material that the fire heats up, like a skewer. So we can’t use a metal skewer, which would get too hot and cook the meat that was in direct contact with the skewer. We also can’t use just any wood, because wood tends to sweat moisture when heated, and the escaping water would boil the meat at the point of contact rather than the fire roasting it. So pomegranate wood specifically is used because pomegranate wood is dryer than other woods and doesn’t sweat when heated.
Essentially, you cannot do the mitzvah of Korban Pesach correctly without a skewer of pomegranate wood. It’s there in the middle of it all, hanging it all up, stabilizing the whole animal, but not influencing or interfering with the process of the roasting at all. It knows its place. Unassuming, humble, but central to the whole mitzvah. Doing its part by staying cool, not sweating, and letting what needs to be done, get done, so the mitzvah can be completed. I hope Rimon ends up being just like that.
And in the end, Judaism forces me to be a minarchist, of a sort. To draw a line from my own personhood instead of from something outside myself. To have just a little intuition of my own. I circumcised my son without his consent, and thereby broke the NAP, the holy of holies of libertarian law. I hated it. I cried. And then even I, the uncontrollable libertarian radical teeming with hatred of the State, drew a line from within to circumscribe power. I did, and will do brit milah, and that’s it. I can’t explain why in any logical terms other than God told me to. And I will not go any further than that into the realm of power over other men. Not ever. Not one inch.
I didn’t want someone else to be my messenger for an act that I found problematic. It felt cowardly, so I did the cut myself. (The mohel did the setup obviously. I just did the cut.) After that, though maybe I shouldn’t have in retrospect, I asked God not to give me another boy because I just didn’t want to do that again. (Yes, I would have done it again if it came to that.) I only circumcised because I believe God told me to do it. That’s it.
What does this have to do with Rimon? Well, there are only two positive mitzvahs that failure to do them results in Karet, spiritual excision from the Jewish people. Very bad punishment though I don’t really know what it means. It’s just below the death penalty. One mitzvah is Brit Milah, circumcision. The other is Korban Pesach. They are both blood mitzvahs, the blood of circumcision, and the blood of the Pesach lamb that was smeared on the door posts in Pesach Mitzrayim. These two mitzvot tie the Jewish people to God in blood. This is what is referred to at a Brit in the pasuk בדמייך חיי, בדמייך חיי. By your blood you will live, by your blood you will live, repeated. One blood for circumcision, one blood for Korban Pesach.
Just like פעמון ורימון פעמון ורימון. A bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate, all around the Kohen Gadol, who actually executes the Pesach sacrifice. I’ve done the first blood in Brit Milah. And we named Rimon after the second, and after Murray, and after Murray’s mother Esther, Hadasa.
To an Israeli ear, Rimon is a boy’s name, another reason we were initially hesitant to name her that. I know two women named Rimon though, so I knew it wasn’t exclusively a boy’s name. Perhaps though, the fact that it is seen as a boy’s name is appropriate in retrospect, since she is named after the Korban Pesach, the parallel to a Brit Milah.
Born between Purim and Pesach, she has a name related to both, Rimon Hadasa. Related to circumcision, related to Murray, משה בן אסתר, and related to the blood mitzvot that tie all Jews together and to God.
And there is no fruit juice more deeply blood red than the blood of a pomegranate. Another Jew has come into the world. Thank God.
May you and your wife raise her to be G-d fearing, Torah observant, marrying a sage in his own right, and filled with love for doing acts of kindness to everyone! And may she give off a “sweet scent as a myrtle” and a “scrumptious taste of a pomegranate” to all who come in contact with her!!!
Mazel tov and a tremendous amount of nachas to you and your entire family!!

An ecologically friendly and nutritious microalgae that used to be a daily food source for the Aztecs in central Mexico could be making its way to Western tables in the form of a new kind of protein-rich falafel, the delicious Middle Eastern deep-fried chickpea balls.
Graduate students at the Biotechnology and Food Engineering Faculty at Israel’s Technion-Israel Institute of Technology have developed what they call the Algalafel, a new kind of falafel that enriches the traditional ingredients with spirulina — a biomass of blue-green algae which in its dried form contains about 60 percent protein and is seen as a solution for food insecurity and malnutrition.
The students nabbed first prize in the EIT Food Project (European Knowledge and Innovation Community) as part of an innovative microalgae product development competition, held in early December at the Technion. EIT Food is a pan-European consortium that focuses on promoting innovation and entrepreneurship in the food sector.
“It tasted very good, almost identical to regular falafel,” said Prof. Yoav Livney, the project leader.
Dried spirulina contains also 5% water, 24% carbohydrates, and 8% fat. Its cultivation uses much less land and water to produce protein and energy than do cattle or poultry.
For their new kind of falafel, the graduates, who worked on their product for a year, added a tahini that was enriched with astaxanthin, an anti-oxidant found naturally in certain algae and seafood that is known for giving salmon its reddish color and flamingo feathers their pink hue.
Growing cows for meat has been found to have one of the largest negative impacts on the global environment, and reducing meat consumption is necessary to cut gas emissions and avoid climate change, a study in the journal Nature showed. Some 56 billion animals — cows, lamb and poultry — are slaughtered every year to feed the world, where consumption of meat is set to grow 70% by 2050, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, as middle classes in Asia and Africa join the trend.
Plant and algae-based – rather than animal-based – proteins are seen as a solution that could be both inexpensive and produced quickly in a relatively small space, without contributing to global warming.
In 1974 the World Health Organization described spirulina as “an interesting food for multiple reasons, rich in iron and protein” that can be fed to children without any risk.
The students were mentored by Prof. Maya Davidovich-Pinhas, Prof. Uri Lesmes, Prof. Avi Shpigelman and the project leader Livney. The Technion team consisted of Meital Kazir, Yarden Abuhassira-Cohen, Hani Shkolnikov, Hila Tarazi and Ina Nephomnyshy.
The product developed by the students is “getting a lot of interest” from a variety of parties eager to commercialize it, said Livney in a phone interview. The idea would be to bring a protein-rich falafel to the market possibly in a ready-to-eat frozen form, he said. The Technion, however, does not allow students to work on commercializing their products while still on scholarship, he said.
Second prize was awarded to a team of students from the German University of Hohenheim in Stuttgart who developed Algini, a lentil-based vegan product enriched with spirulina. In third place were students from Finland’s Helsinki University who created Spurtti, a vegan oatmeal dessert enriched with spirulina.

What Dslr's allow remote focusing?
With my Sony A100 I must manualy refocus the lens to sweep the focus range. This causes a certain degree of shake or movement to the camera between exposures. Are there any Dslr's that I can command the focus to shift using a remote? The camera would have to have at least a focus by wire cababilty I think.
I have not heard about such cameras. Anyway, this should not be a problem. Helicon Focus alignes images before merging them, so movements and shifts should not cause difficulties.
The Canon 1D Mark III supports such a capability, and the new Breeze DSLR program supports it. I have not personally used it yet, but I am looking forward to doing so.
Unfortunately, the lens itself has to support auto-focus for this to wsork, so many macro lenses thay only support manual focus won't work - more's the pity.
The Leaf AFi will do automatic focus bracketing. You can set the camera to take 3, 5, 7 or 9 photos with the lens bracketing the focus.
Canon's live view combined with their free tethered shooting program works a real treat. Focus steps are very small, with my 100 2.8 macro, I find I no longer need my focussing rail!! Plus I don't need to go near the camera.
An important tip. the lens needs to have auto focus turned on of course, however the camera will therefore try to errr autofocus - not good.
Solved by setting the custom function for the shutter button not to perform AF.
Re: What Dslr's allow remote focusing?
The Hasselblads H3D's (tethered) allow such automatic focus adjustment -- but they do not call it autofocus. I.e., Hasselblad says there is no autofocus with the HTS (Tilt/shift) adapter. But tethered, you can adjust the focus forever on the computer screen and the lens makes the changes remotely. I suggested giving this a name so more photographers would know -- before they buy/rent -- that the system is capable of this marvelous function. I bought Helicon, however, to avoid the tethering in the field for my landscapes. Now I plan on manual zone focusing (with the HTS when I can use it) and making the choice of what to include in the stack during post production.
Thanks for this information. We will check if Hasselblad has SDK to control the camera. We would be interested to add support for it too.

Providing the Hudson Valley area with professional, fast and eco-friendly junk removal services.
A customer to your business expects certain things in exchange for their patronage. They want you to be open when you say you’re open and provide whatever goods or services you promise to provide.

If you're a fan of the Alpharetta location, you'll feel right at home in Sandy Springs!
The owners are the same but the rest of the faces are a bit different. Don't worry, it's got all the energy and fun you can handle. Make sure you check out the autographed photos and see if you can count all the pig statues and pictures all over the restaurant. Nice day out? Try eating outside on the patio!

SDSU needs to do these four things to become the next NDSU.
The South Dakota State University football program has taken a backseat to North Dakota State University for the past five years.
The new stadium and the Sanford Jackrabbit Athletic Complex that was built in 2014 have been amazing additions to the SDSU program. The training facilities and indoor practice capability will get the Jackrabbits closer to where they want to be. But they're still a couple steps behind NDSU.
Here are things they need to do.
South Dakota State obviously just built the Dana J. Dykhouse Stadium and from my personal experience the place is awesome. However, the Jackrabbits didn't sell out their first two home games, nor were they close to holding max capacity.
The stadium holds 19,300 people, but the Jackrabbits have only gotten 15,171 vs Drake and 16,887 vs Cal Poly. The Cal Poly game was actually the second-largest home crowd in history of SDSU football but since they opened a new stadium this season, they should've had more in attendance.
But here are the facts: the Fargodome holds 19,000 people and NDSU has had near sellout home games the past five years. I went back and looked through game notes over the past six years. From those notes (three games missing) on the GoBison website, they haven't had a game with less than 18,000 in attendance since week one back in 2011. But the three games that were missing, it's probably safe to assume NDSU hit 18,000 because all three were playoff games.
NDSU has an advantage when it comes to attendance, because the city of Fargo has a population near 118,500 and then an additional 14,500 students that go to school. While Brookings sits at just 23,400 and nearly 13,000 students.
SDSU needs to embrace the biggest city in South Dakota and convince more Sioux Falls people to make the 50 minute drive to Brookings. Whether that's through better advertising, better fan engagements at games or in Sioux Falls, it needs to happen and happen this season.
There's an old saying in sports that started from John Wooden, "Winning breeds winning.."
NDSU has done a magnificent job at recruiting out of the Minneapolis area. Let's not kid ourselves, high school football in Minnesota plays at a higher level and has much better competition than South Dakota or North Dakota schools do. The larger population allows for competition to be better and for more talented players to come out of those cities. Outside of Mitchell or Yankton having an up year, Sioux Falls (include Brandon Valley) usually beat the rest of the schools.
Recruiting out of the Twin Cities area has shown to be beneficial to consistently add depth to the NDSU roster. This season the Bison have 37 players on the team from Minneapolis or the surrounding area to South Dakota State's 15.
NDSU has been able to steal kids from that area because of how mediocre the University of Minnesota football program has been and because of the academic requirements of U of M. Not saying the kids at NDSU aren't smart, I'm sure they're bright kids but U of M is a tougher academic school.
SDSU has 27 kids on the roster that played high school football in South Dakota. I'm sorry but that's not going to be good enough experience when they're playing teams like NDSU, TCU or Missouri. The speed and physicality of the game at higher D1 programs is too great for most South Dakota kids. Now there are exceptions because SDSU hit a homerun by bringing Taryn Christion in at quarterback.
The other thing that sticks out is the fact SDSU has NOT gotten a North Dakota recruit in over ten years, unless someone is missing from the SDSU rosters. That to me is absolutely shocking. You'd figure at a minimum they would have five or six over a ten year period. SDSU basically cannot get kids to come play football that live the next state over, which is only 120 miles to the border.
It's not like North Dakota doesn't produce any good football players either because they've got 23 kids this year at North Dakota State and 13 kids at University of North Dakota. NDSU hasn't come down and taken many South Dakota players the past couple years, but the kids that they have, have all been from Sioux Falls and have all stood out at their schools. With the exception of the Tuszka brothers from Warner.
NDSU has done an absolutely amazing job at bringing in players who buy into the program and know that the next guy is waiting if they don't give it all. Part of that is the players mentality, part of that is great coaching and developing a tradition.
Earlier this week I asked a former player from North Dakota State what SDSU had to do to become NDSU and he simply said "buy into the coaches and work hard."
I talked to offensive coordinator Tim Polasek last season and he said this about Wentz going down with an injury: "Carson is the epitome of our program, but we’re bigger than just one person, the kids reaction was more that the next guy will step up because that’s what we do at North Dakota State."
NDSU has made it a point of emphasis that they're in it to win, so they get players to go the extra mile in fear of being replaced. If you don't give it your all, then they find someone else to replace you and if that guy fails there's someone else behind him.
Craig Bohl started this tradition by leading the Bison to three consecutive championships before leaving after the 2013 season for the head coaching job at University of Wyoming. Now Chris Klieman has taken over that mindset and has shot down any doubt of it going away.
In my opinion SDSU doesn't really have that "badass" attitude and swagger about them that NDSU does. Part of that comes from winning a lot, but part of that is also just the way the program wants to be perceived. NDSU wants people to fear them and wants opponents to know their guys are going to come 110 miles an hour after you.
Plain and simple, SDSU needs to win more games to get more recruits and fans interested in their program.
Having records of 9-4, 9-5, 8-4 looks good on paper, but players pay attention to the early bounces in the playoffs. Players pay attention to the good fight on national TV against TCU and beating Kansas last season. But they also pay attention to when SDSU loses to teams like Cal Poly, Northern Iowa, Western Illinois and Youngstown State. South Dakota State just flat out shouldn't lose to those types of teams if they want to get to an NDSU level.
Finally, the Jackrabbits need to end the streak against the Bison. NDSU has beaten SDSU the last eight times they've played, including two playoff games. It's time to punch the bully in the mouth and prove to people that hope is not lost. I don't care how close they've been to winning the past couple of season.. because they haven't won. Someone great once said this, "It doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile, winning is winning."

I am a lawyer and I suffer from depression. I have pondered writing something like this for years.
I wrote about depression some 20 years ago for the Law Society Gazette. I believed those words could make some difference in the way society treated people, particularly lawyers, who endured serious depression. I was naive. I became only a curiosity in a legal carnival of professional anomalies and problematic characters.
The feedback from that article was on the lines of: “Sorry to hear about your afflictions, but they don’t apply to me.” Lawyers, other than me apparently, had some immunity from mental illness. Stereotypically, such invincibility is supposedly a good trait to have in what largely remains an adversarial legal culture.
Robin Williams was a celebrity; yet he took his life. To many, this act is incomprehensible. They wonder why notables take such extreme actions when their social status opens access to some of life’s greatest possibilities. Others wonder why the revelation of depression in prominent people stimulates so much public interest in mental-health conditions and outcomes. We have long known these conditions afflict many ordinary people. The best current estimate is that one in five Canadians will at some time suffer from a diagnosable mental illness.
But Williams’ death has now worked its way through the standard news cycles. Journalism dealing with depression and mental health has started to fade into the background of our awareness. A notable exception is the story about the struggles of Orlando Da Silva, the new president of the Ontario Bar Association.
There is a disparity between our responses to mental and physical health even though our worldview has long rejected a Cartesian separation of matter and mind. Whatever human consciousness is, it emerges from the brain. The brain is a biochemical organ, just as the heart and the lungs are, differing only in its organizational complexity. But many people, including lawyers, still respond to the appearance of mental-health issues as though they originate in some ghostly realm.
Restorative approaches to including people who have experienced depression or other mental-health issues back into the community are not yet widely available. Consider how challenging it can be to locate a residence for mentally ill people in most neighbourhoods.
We must aim for a parity of esteem for those who experience mental-health challenges and those who experience physical illness. But this parity must extend well beyond funding primary medical and limited psychological care for sufferers.
Depression is not simply a medical condition. Its reach extends far beyond the limits of pharmaceutical, psychotherapeutic, and other interventions medical science can offer. The efforts of the health-care system are extremely important. They can relieve acute distress and pull people back from the abyss. However, they often only pull a depressed person back to the precipice of hopelessness. This remains a very dangerous place. Moving back from that ledge calls for a more relational approach.
The whole community must participate in rehabilitation after a disabling depression. People with mental-health challenges should not have to force or earn their way back into the world. Society still treats experiencing a mental-health challenge as a moral failure. Many lawyers suffer heart attacks but they never have to battle to return to work. Perversely, the legal profession often regards heart attacks as badges of honour and a sign of a dedication to work beyond the call of duty.
I have lived with depression, anxiety, and, as I have recently learned, an atypical form of bipolar disorder for decades. As a result, I have lived a life of ongoing scrutiny and indefinite probation. Most people believe depression is totally disabling. Depression is often paralytic but not always so. It is often possible to manage it with good care.
Many physical illnesses and diseases now claim their public voices. Cancer speaks openly and assertively, as do diabetes and heart disease. Mental illness faces unique challenges in doing the same as it often silences voices. We need others to make its voice heard. Society should not view this as a burden. Social dialogue is not the forum for privileged individual preferences. To work well, it requires the inclusion of a multitude of voices. When mental illness renders voices absent or faint, the moral responsibility on the rest of us is to seek them out and then openly listen to and amplify them.
I suffered a heart attack shortly after my first significant encounter with depression. The physical pain of a heart attack is intense, frightening, and acute. The threshold of death is right in front of you. Depression’s pain is chronic, corrosive, and ultimately more harmful. Loved ones and caregivers bear witness to the caustic effects of depressive experience as their charges progressively withdraw from normal forms of life. For those with no access to loving people, depression petrifies inner experience and makes it more difficult to excavate a healthy life.
Stigma related to depression inflicts even more profound and chronic pain. It replicates and intensifies personal suffering and spreads it to the public world. Stigma has no shame. It treats the depressed as though they are functionally dead. They are things, not people. We do not even attempt to communicate with things.
After my first instance of serious depression, I agreed with the Law Society of Upper Canada not to practise law for a time as a sole practitioner. This was a good and pragmatic idea at the time. It was important for me not to be alone then.
I needed a job. The story about Da Silva is serendipitous. The local Crown attorney, whom I knew well, asked me if I wanted to work for him. He knew the whole history of my health. I appreciated the opportunity. I had to do an interview at the Crown law office in Toronto. When I interviewed with a young lawyer, she noted she had a friend who had also suffered from depression and one day fell down crying onto a courtroom floor. She told me the Crown, the representative of the people, could not have such people working for it. She declined to approve me. When I advised the Crown who had offered me the position about this response, he suggested I request a review from her supervisor. That individual declined to meet me or even review my application. When I inquired about what I could do next, the advice was to not complain further if I ever wanted a job in the government. This was my harsh introduction to stigma. The government that had passed and enforced human rights laws was infused with it. It is gratifying to learn that the Ministry of the Attorney General is not quite so ignorant about mental health any longer.
Stigma layers new suffering upon already-existing pain. It judges that the depressed warrant public humiliation. It seeks to drive them back down into their inner experiences and prevent them from re-emerging into the community.
I experienced another bout of challenging depression about a year ago. Depression can be cyclic, psychiatrists advise me. My work environment became challenging. I eventually requested accommodations under the Human Rights Code. I took this step reluctantly as two supervisors had advised me that I would only encounter adversarial resistance from the employer. Their prophecies were correct. My employer declined to implement all but one of the accommodations my treating health-care practitioner had recommended. I eventually had to leave that employment. Most recently, the same employer refused to approve me for a position with the private organization to which it has contracted out a large portion of its work, notwithstanding that I met all criteria for the job other than government ratification. Exclusion’s radius always increases.
Stigma spreads easily because it is not constrained by facts or attention to fairness. After leaving government work, vague rumours about my mental health began circulating within the legal world I had known. When I applied for new employment, even at firms where lawyers had invited me to work in the past, I received no response. There was no overt rejection, just the alienating cruelty and isolation of absolute silence.
Two legal recruiters recently declined to pass my resume to their clients based on my mental-health status. One recruiter advised me that a reason for his decision was he thought an epigram on my letterhead reflected mental immaturity. I actually like that epigram and have had many compliments on it. It was from Dr. Seuss. I doubt the clients of such recruiters hear or care about the people filtered out under the guise of due diligence. If law firms choose to be wilfully blind, they are complicit in the stigmatization their agents practice.
The law society has recently integrated a member services plan that includes short-term and crisis interventions for lawyers, including those with mental-health concerns. Although such programs can help, they cannot replace the peer-to-peer program it used to support. That program helped walk people back from the precipice through ongoing and caring support.
The outgoing lieutenant-governor of Ontario, David Onley, has spoken of the waste of human energy and talent that discrimination against all forms of disability generates. This waste is a public creation. By isolating and failing to actively accommodate, we harm not only those targeted by the stigma we tolerate but also our communities and professions. Onley is right in advocating for a paradigm shift away from focusing on the challenges of those with both physical and mental disabilities to a worldview that acknowledges, values, and engages the strengths of everyone.
Even though I have described some of my personal experience with depression, my challenges are not unique. Even though many others have recently and eloquently written about depression, suicide, and mental health, it is critical that more people contribute their voices to the dialogue. No matter how poignant or tragic any individual story of depression may be, it will only be a choir of voices that will bring about change.

Robert Kominar is a lawyer based in Hamilton, Ont.
The legal profession is very complicated to deal with and it can even lead to depression. This is why many lawyers often get psychotherapy or TMS therapies. However, it is better to focus on precautionary measures because prevention is better than treatment.
Thank you for sharing your story and helping to bring more attention to this important issue in our profession.
Thank you for sharing your story on the heels of the August 4 Law Times article about O. Da Silva's intention to make mental illness a priority during his term as OBA President.As a lawyer and therapist working with legal professionals and who formerly worked with lawyers facing challenges as an employee of the peer-to-peer program, I agree that more lawyers need to reach out for help and are deterred by stigma. As lawyers we are often our harshest critics and our need to appear strong and successful often keeps us silent. Lawyers need to be willing to honour their own voices first of all.

Cultures are one of those complex elements that result from a combination of both intentional design and unintentional consequence of cause and effect. Moreover, each culture is unique and often is made up of subcultures of level, trade, tenure, ethnicity and even university alumni.
Cultures most commonly are defined as common practices, shared attitudes and perceptions that influence behavioral choices at work and away. Experience has taught us that several things influence a culture, such as location, leadership, supervisory styles, peer pressure, workplace conditions and logistics, to name a few.
Through a coordinated assessment process, a safety culture can be measured, and thus improved. After gaining a better understanding of the assessment's significant findings, the critical few findings that have the potential for the greatest transformational impact on improving the site's safety culture are identified, prioritized and addressed. This article provides a foundation to guide the reader through an internal assessment of their site or company culture. These seven vital steps have been followed hundreds of times throughout the world with great success.
Familiarize yourself with documentation on current and past programs, initiatives and previous audits. Further insight can be provided by understanding the work order process, effectiveness of communication channels, safety committee(s), incident investigation process, incentives and rewards and recognition programs.
Consider performing a Pareto Analysis of the past 3-5 years' incident reports. Look for the vital precautions that represent personal prevention opportunities as a way to ground the data collected during the assessment. In addition, consider identifying trends within commonly collected variables that result from incident reports. An understanding of the safety roles, responsibilities and expectations of those in leadership positions provides insight into the support behaviors and safety leadership onboarding norms within the organization. This information is critical to provide an understanding of the cultural foundation and helps you identify where to focus discussions and identify transformational opportunities.
Inform all within the organization of the activities of the assessment. Pay special attention to ensure all that the discussions will be anonymous and you only will be interviewed with your peers to allow for open and honest discussions. This principle is critical to the process.
The employees will need to understand that the purpose of the assessment is not to find fault, but to identify the opportunities to further proactively improve. Several site leaders have closed with the following statement: “I sincerely thank you in advance. Your feedback on the strengths of and opportunities to improve our safety culture is the only way we can ensure we are going in the right direction with our safety improvement efforts.” Consider closing this step by validating communication occurred, rather than simply assuming.
As early as possible in the visit, a site tour should be arranged. The tour should include the major (if not all) areas of the site where work is in progress. The goal of the tour is to give the assessor an overview of logistics, tasks and basic safety issues involved in site processes. If the assessor is familiar with the location, this tour can help provide an understanding of group and individual behaviors and how they differ when individuals are working in teams or alone.
In organizations with represented work forces, it is critical to include the elected bargaining unit leadership in the safety improvement discussions/interviews. Unions typically consider safety one of their highest priorities and will help ensure the success of accident-prevention efforts as long as they have the opportunity to ensure these efforts do not run counter to other objectives. This initial and continuous involvement is an absolute critical success factor.
While there are several off-the-shelf perception surveys available to organizations, this author strongly encourages organizations to develop their own. Generic perception surveys do not always measure the intended perceptions. They gather information on general categories and often miss out on specifics.
Measuring a culture involves a complex metric of perceptions, workplace realities, past incident history and inter-connectivity of the people. Perceptions are only a component of the answer, not the answer itself. Current focus, definition of safety, communication effectiveness, knowledge support, past history of successes and failures, support for change and likes and dislikes are among the topics of discussion.
One-on-one interviews with key individuals can be used for obtaining a deeper understanding of the information collected from the customized safety perception survey. Focus groups can be comprised of a representative sample of all levels, shifts and major tasks within the organization. For smaller locations, the assessor is encouraged to speak with the entire population. Focus groups participate in highly interactive group interview sessions. They typically involve groups of no more than 10 people and are led by a trained facilitator. Focus groups generally encourage interaction among participants. A well-led focus group tends to yield extremely rich insight.
Most safety culture assessments are performed with the objective to determine the nature, direction, perceptions and capabilities of the site or company personnel as they work together to prevent accidents. Additionally, the assessment should investigate organizational readiness for both rapid and sustainable safety improvement, and aim to discover factors that may facilitate or inhibit such improvement.
The author encourages the assessor to conduct an exit meeting with key personnel on the last day of the assessment to discuss preliminary findings (i.e., the general findings, factors that would support improvement, factors that could challenge efforts and initial internally actionable recommendations). Additionally, this session should address how the current organizational, operational issues impact safety success at the location. If the site has bargaining unit representation, the site is encouraged (depending on relationship and openness) to involve the union leadership in the closing discussions.
I would like to offer a simple principle about cultures that has proven to be helpful to organizations that have achieved excellence in multiple operational categories. Your organizational culture is by far your most effective safety sustainability mechanism. Moreover, the cultural elements previously discussed have a far-reaching impact into the personal lives of those within it.
Developing a culture that focuses on achieving safety excellence offers principles to individuals that assist them in their personal quests to remain injury-free throughout life. Most importantly, it has a positive impact on the things most people care about more than anything in this world: their family and their family's safety. With this in mind, what could be a more noble cause than developing a culture of safety excellence?

At United Regional, we provide advanced robotic-assisted surgery for select surgical procedures that can mean fewer stitches, less pain and a quicker return to your life. Robotic-assisted surgery is minimally invasive surgery that uses very small incisions and robotic instrumentation to perform the surgery. The robot is 100% under the direction of the surgeon’s movements.
What types of surgery can be done this way?
If you are a candidate, prostate and some gynecologic procedures are done robotically. Only your surgeon can determine if you are a candidate for robotic surgery.
What do you mean by smaller incisions?
Robotic-assisted surgery is performed with three or four very small incisions instead of the long incisions required by most traditional surgeries. Some of the benefits of robotic surgery are reduced pain, reduction in blood loss and faster return to daily activities.
How do I find a doctor who can perform robotic surgery?
A list of surgeons who perform robotic surgery at United Regional can be found below or by calling Call-A-Nurse at 764-8570.

I pre-ordered Memoirs of a Geisha from Amazon about a month ago. It arrived Monday. And I finally had time to see it today.
Ok.. so I got Pick-Up Stix for lunch… I much prefer Panda Express. The choi mein is better and the beef looks like beef.
I was just wondering…. how is it that the StarTrek com badges always know who you want to talk to? I mean, you never see them tuning in to the right frequency and they never get the wrong number.
In California, there are no stop signs. They are simply miss-labled yield signs.
I received a call from Susan, the church secretary, on Friday in the early afternoon, who let me know that my purchases for the church network upgrades had arrived. Jesse headed over to the church to start building the new server and to discuss some network and phone cabling issues with Pastor Jim and Susan.
After talking with Jim and Susan, we decided to do the rewiring this weekend. On a spur of the moment decision, we left youth group early at 8pm to begin an all-night cabling job. My cousin, Dan, joined us and, after buying materials, we began work around 10pm. By 6am, Saturday, we had removed 5 network lines and pulled 10 new phone lines and 13 new network lines, an estimated 250 ft of removed cable and 1000 ft of new cable.
One more quick run to Home Depot for the last bit of needed material… cabling project was finished around 10am and cleaned, packed and finally left shortly after 1pm.
This dude can tumble! Sean, we’re gonna have to raise the stakes….
I want to do a bit of traveling in my life. And it would be cool to do something cool to remember it…. kinda like this cool dude.

Hello, your local epublishing adherent here. Have you heard all the buz from the publishing world this week? About Amanda Hocking and Barry Eisler? Everyone is talking about them, all over the place like here, here, here and here . I give them credit, it’s big news. But they are just the latest buzzwords, and the best examples of why anyone should publish whichever way is right for them.
All the talk about these guys has refreshed the equation wars between self epublishing and traditional publishing. Specifically everyone starts putting up long strings of equations about the money an author actually makes selling books in each method. Something I am really really tired of seeing repeatedly over the last couple of years now. All the ebook enthusiasts point to the same argument-defending pieces, all the traditionalists point to the “everything else” about why self epublishing is not the best thing to do. And it hasn’t changed over the last couple of years. Alright the only thing that changes is the examples when popular pricing models change, but they essentially say the same thing… That is, IF YOU CAN SELL A LOT OF BOOKS YOU WILL MAKE A LOT OF MONEY.
I’m happy to see that a young writer in this position has chosen to go with traditional publishing--to go with having a professional edit her work, and help her become the best writer she can be. I’m saying this not knowing how much she has invested in independent copy editors with her previous books. But I’m also saying this knowing that authors like Ann Rice thought they could do without editing and now publically expose some really shoddy prose.
Eisler has come a long way as a professional author, polishing his writing through years of working with editors and also has a huge fan base from previous success with publishing houses. He’s already doing the marketing and just wants to sell books for himself, and continue to have his publishers publish his other books. Wouldn’t I love to be in his position, without the huge mountain of marketing work I have waiting for me.
In the end, these two represent the polar opposite ends of the current publishing atmosphere. And show the best parts of it all. Looking at them you do not hear the story of the low sellers or even the midlisters, like Kiana Davenport, who may be the next biggest success story.
If you are lucky enough to land a good publishing contract, you will likely reach a larger audience than with self publishing. If you choose to go with self publication, you will make more per cover and maybe even push more copies but it will only spread as far as one person can push. In the short of it all, in order to become a successful writer, you need to market, market, market and network, network, network. Regardless of who has the rights, regardless of which side of the equation you are on, it will catch up with you eventually. Be smart, be aware of your options and don’t be afraid of change!
How much should you sell your ebook for?
As we scribists get closer to production time on our ebook anthology experiment, questions like this are plaguing us.
Unlike the big publishing houses, and physical-copy self publishers, we don't have to pay for the substantial existence of something: paper and warehousing/distribution. So we know we don't have to charge the $9.99 or so that you are still seeing out there. This item has been left out off most of the pro epub articles I've read lately.
We were thinking a little more like these guys. Another blog using J. A. Konrath as an ebook reference-his name is popping up everywhere-even here.
The message from the technium is clear. With the tipping point upon us, more and more people are going to sell ebooks at dirt cheap prices. I've seen some people cite the strategy to "sell" their ebooks free for about a month on the kindle store to make it on the top 100 list and then start charging for it once it has the visibility.
Many have pointed out that selling ebooks for dirt cheap isn't much better than contracting with a major publisher (keep in mind there wasn't nearly as much overhead) as far as royalties are concerned. But that's where sales and marketing strategies come in. The more we can sell a book for, the less this will matter. So lets say we charge a bit more for a book, but have a sale every once in a while. It still gives people a chance to get excited about a dirt cheap book, but lets us sell at a higher price the rest of the time. You all know you love it when you see a sale! I know I do.
But there are other reasons than padding sales strategies not to sell at dirt cheap. Even Amanda Hocking, who's sales have been outstanding, charges more than 99 cents.
The other reasons are innumerable, but one technicality is that certain ebook outlets have limited price formats. The apple store, for instance requires ebook prices to end in .99. so you can either sell for $1.99, .99 or free. Not too many options there.
While there has been a lot of evidence supporting the "the cheaper the better" platform, I don't think it will be the wisest move for us. But we'll keep you posted about our pricing when we make that decision.
I just stumbled upon this post and it's a very interesting read. They talk about pretty much every aspect of today's publishing world - from self-publishing, to ebook pricing, to why Barry Eisler just turned down a $500,000 contract with a major publisher. Rather long post (even longer than what I usually post), but worth reading.
A few years ago I found an open source script writing program called Celtx. My brother and I wrote a screenplay using it, and I've used it to write the audio/visual scripts that later became the promo and tutorial movies for my games. There are several very cool features in Celtx like a built-in database for keeping track of character details, an index card view that makes reordering scenes easy, and an easy PDF export. I've always thought this program was almost perfect for novels. It just needed a little more attention.
Well, it just got that attention in the new version 2.9 that was released on February 8, 2011.
Up to now, I've been using almost ancient tools to write my stories (ancient in computer terms, not ancient as in 'abacus'). First I have the actual novel, written in OpenOffice.Org's Writer. Next I have a sort of ad hoc database, stored in a multi-page spreadsheet in OpenOffice.Org's Calc -- one sheet for a chapter list and summary, one for character details, and a third for keeping track of revision history. Finally, I had a simple text file for storing notes on future ideas that hadn't found their way into the novel yet.
I've always wanted a program just for writing - one program to rule them all, if you will. Celtx gave me that for writing screenplays, but fell short for writing novels. Now they have specific novel support, and things are much better. I spent some time over the past few days copying my unedited second novel into Celtx to see how it works.
The "Master Catalog" is still there, allowing me to easily keep track of information about my characters, locations, and anything else I can dream up. This works as well as it ever did, although some of the fields they provide just don't apply to me yet (I don't spend much time thinking about parking on Mars but I imagine it's better than at my current apartment). Having access to a place that lets me store more information than a spreadsheet and in a much more readable format is a boon. It even lets you import pictures, so if you have a favorite actor you envision as your character or some concept art you can add those to your character card for future reference.
Next is the "Novel" component. This is a simple text editor with some custom header areas. This is not as robust as Writer or Word, but it is more useful than notepad because of the way it's tied in. Fill in a chapter header and you instantly have an entry added to the Chapter List on the left side of the screen. This does two things very well: lets you easily add chapter entries and allows for easy reordering. The index card view works even better in that regard, since it gives you a nicer view of your chapters and lets you drag and drop them to change the order.
Word Count -- I keep track just to see where I'm at and what sort of progress I'm making. You can select text and right-click on it to see the word count. Effective, but hidden. I'd prefer to see the word count in the chapter list and have an overall total displayed somewhere as well.
Scenes -- Having each chapter be an item in a list and an index card is great, but each chapter is not one scene. I usually have several scenes in a chapter and would love to have an interface to let me move those around and insert new scenes more easily.
Export -- I want two methods of exporting. First, a fully formatted novel ready to send off to CreateSpace for printing (using my own custom template, if possible). Second, a fully formatted novel in DOC format ready for me to send to Smashwords.
Celtx has worked well for the few projects I've created with it. This novel writing component is a huge step toward making me want to use the program full time. It's missing a few things, but considering that this is the first official version to support novel writing at all, it's an exceptional effort. It's even motivated me enough to look into writing add-ons to get the additional functionality I want.
So I have this novel I wrote a while back. It still needs to be revised some (ok, a lot), before it is ready for the greater book-buying public.
I wrote the book, ok a high fantasy novel, as my Master's thesis, and then sat on it for two years. My writing has grown a lot and it's been tugging at the back of my mind a lot, so I guess I should ya know, get it taken care of so I can publish it. A book unsubmitted is a book that is not making me money.
I could pitch it to an agent, wait for a publisher to buy it, wait two years to get it on the shelves.... Or I could just epub it.
That is my second reason for being so motivated lately.
eBooks are taking off in the current publishing market. And people like Amanda Hocking are proof that this is the way to do it. Go ahead and click on the link. Her story is amazing, and I envy her for it. "As of Tuesday, January 04, 2011 at 9 PM, I've sold over 185,000 books since April 15, 2010". This is just an example, if all goes well, of what I can do once I get my novel, and its sequels, finished and up on the net.
As much as I have wanted to "get published," it just doesn't make sense anymore.

The success story of industrial robots started in Germany in the 70’s, when the automobile industry started to use them on a large scale to automate standard processes. Today, decades later, robots are often more compact than back then, and no longer need a protective cage. They work side by side with people every day, and are absolutely essential for production companies.
Whether metal processing or the plastic industry, whether a large company or a three-man shop, monotonous routine tasks can be automated nearly everywhere, while employees focus on more demanding steps.
However, many industrial work steps require a fine sense of touch and are still a particular challenge for automation. To harness this potential, robot arms must come closer to the capabilities of the human hand.
But why is a sense of touch even required to automate this kind of process? Why can’t a conventional robot arm always suffice to automate work steps? The reasons are actually quite diverse, depending on the application.
In the area of surface refinement, the primary reason is simply the properties of the material itself. The materials to be processed are, for example, often soft, elastic, or flexible, and therefore require a highly sensitive process.
If this process is not carried out sensitively, damage to the material and therefore expensive manufacturing errors are inevitable.
Robot arms have long lacked the sensitive touch needed for this type of process – which is why they are often still done manually. Six-axis force/torque sensors, such as those from OptoForce, represent a future-ready solution to your automation.
Another task representing a certain level of challenge in automation is finishing glossy surfaces, using processes such as polishing. Image process systems can barely be used. The shiny surface confuses their perception and they quickly hit their limits. Extending the robot system with a sense of touch is also the smarter approach in this type of process.
Another application for six-axis force/torque sensors is pick-and-place applications. In these tasks, it is not always the case that the workpieces are equally suitable or even that they need to be moved between fixed positions.
Irregular workpieces and unstructured environments are continually an issue, sometimes simply due to the increasing level of individualization in production.
New challenges such as these make it essential for industrial robots to be capable of “feeling their way”, measuring the slightest resistance in the process. Example applications in which pick-and-place tasks require a sense of touch are things like accurately positioning a workpiece in a box, or stacking parts. This type of application is typically and primarily found in the packaging industry.
Precision assembly is another industrial area which currently makes use of a lot of manual work. That’s because these work steps require precise responsiveness in the millimeter scale – every bit of excess or insufficient force can lead to manufacturing errors or material damage, and the costs can mount up quickly.
The advantages of automation are however no longer something inaccessible. Thanks to technological progress, industrial robots can be made capable today of automating even precision assembly processes with the highest precision and sensitivity.
The electronics industry in particular can benefit massively in this area from the use of advanced force/torque sensors.
Quality control, another typical area of application for OptoForce force/torque sensors, is relevant to every industry in a sense.
In a globalized world, competition is increasing, and customers have increasingly demanding requirements – and they can get them, due to the increasing variety of offers.
For companies, this means that the quality control factor is becoming massively more important.
Manufacturing errors that make it to the end customer can no longer be tolerated. They must be identified beforehand. Processes in quality control that involve the measurement of forces can be automated cost-effectively using haptic sensors – the testing of plug connections, for example.
The HEX-E and HEX-H sensors from OptoForce have a particularly valuable property, both for integrators and for end users: they come with an extensive software package preprogrammed with a variety of standard industrial applications – such as polishing, palletizing, stacking, inserting connectors or pins, and many more. For the surface processing, pick-and-place, assembly, and quality control applications mentioned above, this intuitively designed software can allow commissioning in less than 15 minutes.
Companies of any size can therefore benefit from a short integration time and thus rapid amortization – and can automate new areas without it taking a great deal of time or effort.

It's almost the end of summer everyone. Most of the Save the Harbor Staff and I are about to head back to school and I just want to think about all the things I did this summer. Well, first of all, before this summer, I didn't know how to do most of the things that I know how to do now. At the beginning of the summer, I didn't know how to fish and now I can teach what I learned to my family and friends who also don't know how to fish. I can also tell the difference between a female and a male crab by just looking at their stomachs. Now lets talk about the sites I worked at. At the beginning of the summer, I wanted to be put at the Children's Museum so bad, but when I got assigned to Piers, I was a little sour about it. Now I think Piers is one of the best sites to work at. It was so fun working there with the kids and the staff and when I was assigned to work at a different site for a day, I would have had as much fun as I would at Piers. This is my first summer working at with Save the Harbor/ Save the Bay and I learned so much and met some great people through the way and I hope to return next year to learn something new and even meet some more great people. So to end my last blog post of the year, I would like to say thank you for the most exciting and probably the best summer I have ever had.

The mission of the festival is to showcase art that celebrates the joys and struggles of working-class people; to continue the process of developing the annual festival; and to stimulate artists to respond, either individually or collectively, to the social challenges of the changing work and community environment.
The first Chicago Labor & Arts Festival was held in September, 1997.
It was held in conjunction with the completion and dedication of a mural produced on the Chicago UE building by lead artist Daniel Manrique from Mexico. This followed the earlier mural completed by Mike Alewitz, from New Jersey, in the building of the Mexican union, FAT.
The cross border project had been a process several years in the making.
The connection between art and labor has been a matter of artistic concern for many years. Evidence of this is seen in the inspiration that labor themes have given to writers and visual artists for centuries, though we remember it mostly from our own immediate history in the depression.
More recently, in the 1980’s, activists in Chicago connected with Guild Books and in Los Angeles with Midnight Special began activities which were called “Art Meets Labor” and “Art Works”, respectively.
When we began the festival in 1997, we were partly conscious of some of these connections.
The time seemed right to initiate a program that celebrated the connection between arts and labor.
Discussion of what is working class? certainly more than trade union, more than those now working (full or part time). What is working class in the global economy? What is working class in the age of electronics?
Importance of both aspects of joys and struggles. This is not solely about bleakness and horror, but also about life and vision.
Work and art were at one time intimately related, not separate categories.
How do we engage the artists in the festival in terms of their own art? How do we stimulate the art/creativity in those who do not consider themselves artists?
We’ve held 10 festivals so far; the first seven were in September, coinciding with American “Labor Day.” We did this consciously to connect with the trade union movement and what we perceived most Americans saw as labor’s holiday. However, in the back of our minds all along, was the history of international labor day, May Day, which originated in our own home town in 1886. By 2002 a number of the unions we had been working with suggested that the time was right to switch to a May celebration. We’ve made the festival a May celebration ever since.
Why the Chicago Labor & Arts Festival? Why Now?
How can we answer this without asking: What is Labor? What is Art?
Our answers to these questions reflect a four year process of discussion and planning the festivals. First of all, labor is broadly the group or class of people who work and do not own the means of making what they produce; who have worked but who have been “downsized” out of a job; who have no hope of ever holding a job that will provide their means of material and cultural sustenance.
This group of people works full time, part time and no time; it has permanent jobs, temporary jobs, pieces of jobs. It gets paid good wages, bad wages, welfare or no fare. It belongs to the AFL-CIO, the AARP, the Welfare Rights Union, and mostly to no union at all. By this definition, labor means better than 90% of the people in the U.S.A.
It certainly means better than 90% of all artists. The advent of art as a saleable item has meant at least these two things. First, the artist has become a special group of labor that earns its living by selling its ability to make art (e.g., commercial visual art, advertising, music, writing). Second, those who cannot make a living at art become branded as non-artists, not creative. The defining factor is the marketplace of commodities.
For us, however, art is not the special province of immensely talented individuals. Art emanates from the experience and action of each individual, taking different and surprising turns and forms, within a social and collective context.
Turning art into a thing whose sole object is the procurement of the means of subsistence is part of a process which began with the introduction of commodities in general. The consequence of this development is the wide disparity in wealth and poverty , a disparity that we still see growing.
This festival seeks to celebrate the joys and struggles of working-class people and to celebrate the creative human spirit. We seek through art to popularize what our history books erase. We want to stimulate each other to think of ways that we, as creative people, can use our imaginative powers.
My epic award winning play, LUCY PARSONS: ANARCHIST was directed by me at Labor Fest 2012 in San Francisco on July 18th to an overflow crowd at the 518 Valencia performance space. Steve Zeltzer asked for a reprise reading of the play which was first presented with a Puffin Foundation grant in 1999. Since Lucy Parsons was an activist in Chicago all her life I think the Chicago Labor and Arts Festival would be a great venue for the presentation of this play as a production or a reading in a future festival. Please let me know if you are interested in looking at the play. I look forward to hearing from you.

With RGM’s major success in bolt-on supercharging the 4.0litre V6 Toyota Hilux, Fortuner, 79 Land Cruiser pick-up as well as the Dual VVTI Prado it was a matter of time before we would complete the big five by adding in the FJ Cruiser. As RGM understands the market for having vehicles with increased torque and naturally increasing in the kW, our supercharge conversion would be a perfect option for this, what many would say is under powered, although fitted with a 200kW, D-VVTi 4.0 - litre engine.
Our in-house design division, utilising sophisticated CAD design programmes, came up with a design which places the emphasis on durability, reliability and presentation.
The net result is a conversion that is not only exceptionally pleasing to the eye but also delivers onexpectations of increasing torque and horsepower substantially.
RGM once again utilized the exceptionally reliable Vortech centrifugal V2 SI-trim supercharger. This unit is also renowned for its quiet working operation. It is high pressure oil fed for lubrication and cooling and runs a gravitational oil return to the sump.
Our state-of-the-art, highly-efficient RGM liquid charge cooling system was designed to ensure lower boost temperatures, less pressure drop across the cooler and a compact and tightly nested water reservoir which reduces plumbing of water pipes. Fewer components are required, resulting in an easier and quicker installation. In extensive testing we have reduced boost air temperatures by up to 60 degrees Celsius. An advantage in our installation is that we utilize a high quality Setrab cooler that mounts on the front of the vehicle and does not impede the normal airflow across the radiator. The cooler is also fitted with its own 8 inch (200mm) electric fan, adding to improved air flow to the radiator. This also assists in a more effective charge cooling in low speed conditions. The RGM liquid charge cooling system is completely isolated from the vehicles cooling system and has its own electric water pump for circulation.

For persons who received income from any retirement or survivor pension other than Social Security, Railroad Retirement, or a disability pension last month, INCRETIR indicates the amount that the person received from other pensions in the last calendar month.
INCRETIR is part of the Family Resources supplement that provides information on individuals' health benefits, amount of coverage and income received from employment, welfare benefits, public assistance, and savings.
Questions in the Family Resources supplement are different from those in the core survey in terms of the content and the treatment of missing data. Questions in the Family Resources were normally asked of the month prior to the interview while the core survey asked of the last calendar year. All missing data in the Family Resources supplement were imputed by NHIS. Users can refer to the imputation flag variable QINCRETI to identify persons with imputed data.

Lead and discipline in love.
In what ways have you become like your father?
describe the heritage your father passed on to you, using no more than five words. To what extent are you repeating the things your father instilled?
No Dad is perfect. If you were hurt by your father, is it time to forgive and move on, to break the cycle of past mistakes? If he is still alive tell him you love him and give him a big hug! If he is dead tell your heart to forgive him – then move on!
Do you need to apologide to your dad?

We do our best to get your packages delivered to you as quickly as possible. Our goal is to have all orders processed and shipped within 1 business day from when the order is received. Consequently, you can usually expect your package 3-5 business days after you place your order.
During the holidays or high order volume seasons, it can take between 5-8 business days due to the seasonal rush.
Note that we will do our best to get your orders out as soon as possible but we cannot guarantee that the USPS or other delivery services will deliver according to their suggested time frames..
At this time, we do not ship outside the United States.
Q: How do I use a coupon code or gift card?
After adding items to your cart, continue to checkout. On the Checkout page, enter your coupon code in the discount code box and then click "Apply". At this time, we do not offer gift cards.
Q: I have a store and am interested in selling your products. Is it possible to become a retail outlet for your products?
Yes! We offer wholesale pricing for approved stores that fit with our mission and vision. Please contact us by emailing info@aromasoapery.com.
Q: What are the main ingredients in your soaps?
All of our soaps contain coconut oil. Other ingredients that are commonly used in our soaps include olive oil, castor oil, palm oil, avocado oil, sweet almond oil, grapeseed oil, rice bran oil, rosehip seed oil, jojoba oil, argan oil, shea butter, avocado butter, mango butter, and cocoa butter.
Our exfoliating soaps also include either ground walnut shells, poppy seeds, shredded loofah, or ground pumpkin seeds.
Our milk soaps contain either goat milk, Greek yogurt, or coconut milk.
Our premium soaps are scented with essential oils. All other soaps are scented with fragrance oils and most are colored with natural colorants.
Q: Which soap is best for to use on dry skin, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, etc.?
We appreciate your interest in our skincare products as a possible help to any skin conditions issues you’ve had to face, but we do not claim that our products cure skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, etc. as these are complicated skin issues with many potential causes (diet, environmental factors, reaction to chemicals from various products we encounter, etc.). We've found our skincare products to be more soothing and less irritating than alternative mass-produced skincare products. Please be sure to check out the reviews people have left us on our product pages.
Our premium soaps are made with essential oils. Essential oils are aroma-packed, concentrated oils derived directly from plants, usually through the process of distillation. They are often used in aromatherapy due to their volatile nature (tendency to vaporize) and their positive effects on the mind and body.
Q: Is there lye in your soap?
No, but there was. Lye is used in the production of our soap but is not contained in our soap when you purchase it. All soap is the product of saponification, a chemical reaction between lye (a strong alkali) and fatty acids (triglycerides) which produces soap and glycerin. This process takes between 12 to 48 hours to complete. We cure our soap for 6-8 weeks to allow ample time for all of the lye to be fully consumed by the saponification process. Curing the soap also allows any excess moisture to evaporate, making for a harder, longer-lasting bar of soap. This is a quality control standard we utilize to ensure there is absolutely zero lye remaining in our soap and that you have a hard bar that won't mush away in the shower.
Q: Your soap looks and smells so good! Can I eat it?
We regularly get asked this question, and for good reason. Our soap does look and smell good enough to eat. However, please do not eat our soap as it is not made for oral consumption.
We mainly use the cold process method for making soap. For our Rustic line, we use the hot process method for making soap. In our opinion, these are the best methods for making soap. By using these methods and making all of our soap in-house and by hand, we're able to have full control over the quality of every bar we produce.
Q: What is the shelf life of your soap?
The scent of some of our more delicate soaps will start to fade within 6-12 months. However, the soap itself is not affected and will be a viable cleanser indefinitely.
Q: Are your soaps gluten free?
Nearly all of our products are gluten free. Some of our soaps do contain colloidal oats or beer, however, so we encourage our customers to review all of the ingredients used to make each product to determine whether you or a member of your family could potentially experience an allergic reaction.
Our Premium line of products are 100% natural and are great for all skin types, especially sensitive skin.
Q: I'm allergic to milk, does that mean I can't use your goat milk soap and other milk based soap products?
Not necessarily. We're not aware of any of our customers who have milk allergies that are not able to use our goat milk soap and other milk based products. Many of our customers who are lactose intolerant have found that they are able to use our soap without any problems. However, it is important to remember that everyone is different, so we would recommend consulting with a doctor beforehand. If you get the okay from your doctor, consider using a tiny amount of a goat milk soap on a small portion of your skin first (like your elbow) to see if it works for you before using the full bar in the shower or bath.
We are located in Plantation, Florida. All of our products are made in a home-based studio. We offer customer pick up for local customers who prefer to pick up their orders and avoid shipping charges.
Q: How can we actually speak with someone?
Our business hours are Monday-Friday from 9:00am – 5:00pm (EST) and our phone number is 954-328-6901. During non-business hours, you can leave a message or contact us by email at info@aromasoapery.com.

The job CAN talk. "Listening" to what the job says will help you make better position descriptions, job ads, and better hiring decisions.
The 12 Profit Design Components listed in this white paper can build a company that will drive long-term and sustainable profits even during times of change and growth.
Even those who hire, may unknowingly be biased on experience, education, and intelligence. These biases are often what keeps them from selecting superior performers.
Having entrepreneurial minded employees can be a boost to your bottom line. Read this HBR Reviewed article and find out how to discover them and why you need to do just that!
Emotional intelligence is the foundation of sound decision making, which is at the core of consistently high performance. Studies on the impact of emotional intelligence in the workplace emphasize that organizations with higher levels of emotional intelligence reap benefits in productivity and success. Business leaders who use Emotional Quotient expertise to build an emotionally intelligent culture gain a competitive edge for their organization in the marketplace.
One measure of an organization’s health is the state of its talent pipeline. Whether preparing for executive succession, filling open management positions as the need arises, or staffing new roles created by restructuring or growth, how ready is your company to fill key positions with star performers?
Return on investment is more important than ever in the slowly recovering business climate of 2010. Every dollar counts double as employers require that investments in talent pay off in performance improvements that will propel growth.
There is a clear connection between engagement, performance and profit. Recruiting talented candidates is not enough; it’s crucial that people are assigned to the specific roles where their talents will have the greatest impact on achieving company goals, and where they are most likely to remain onboard fully engaged.

The collective efforts of the Scratch Perverts (Tony Vega, Prime Cuts & Plus One) have won the world over with their dynamic hip hop mixing skills whether its DMC or club gigs. Here we get a chance to realize it’s not just hip hop they can beat match and hype a crowd with. The selection is over various genres of musical kids including hip hop of course. But on this mix dub step is dropped in between electro, dub, garage and jungle. With 37 tracks to run through its wonder they can still keep it together but veterans like this have been dishing it out for years now and got the handle on the tunes, and mixing. You won’t be let down either with just tracks, samples cross over the builds with fast paced club energy. For those you enjoy the diversity of all electronic (mostly) you will glued to your speakers when you come across this mix. Although this just might be another step to the next level for the Scratch Perverts it’s also good to see they are open to other styles of music.

In this year's Hot List — Conde Nast Traveler editors picks of the year’s top hotel openings — the U.S. lays claim to 26 hot properties, including some surprises in smaller cities. Palm Springs is proud to be recognized by three amazing properties, Holiday House Palm Springs, Kimpton Rowan Palm Springs, and The Rossi.
The modern woman's getaway guide to Palm Springs - After a century of taking the world by storm, we modern women have earned some downtime. But when bubble baths fizzle out too soon and happy-hour tiaras start to lose their sparkle, it's time to visit California's oasis of inspiration: Palm Springs.
With Coachella just a few days away, the modernist hotels of Palm Springs are the place to be. And the boutique resorts scattered through the desert boast some of the most beautiful pools in the world.
Vogue contributing editor Tania Fares is a multi-tasking maven: an art patron, philanthropist and British fashion champion, based between London, LA, Paris and Beirut, she's never not on the road. Here, she rounds up her favourite things to do when in Palm Springs.
Palm Springs Visit Palm Springs.
Scores of outdoor bistros, modernist gems on every corner (the only Chase bank you’ll ever feel compelled to Instagram), and a climate that encourages flip-flops in February make Palm Springs a classic California getaway. And with JetBlue’s nonstop flights from New York, it’s finally being discovered by East Coasters. The big news in the desert is the seven-block swathe of downtown that’s being reimagined as one of the sharpest, most pedestrian-friendly urban spaces in the country. The halo effect extends to the entire city, where even older businesses have an upbeat spring in their step as Modernism Week draws the crowds. Here are six of Palm Springs’ newest—or renewed—chic spots to dine and stay.
Lounging on the rooftop pool deck while a well-toned clientele chill to a bossa nova beat, it’s hard to imagine the outcry that accompanied the construction of Palm Springs’ tallest building. Local protectionists protested the change in the city’s low-slung roofline, but the hotel opened nonetheless in late 2017, and the seven-story Rowan delivers plenty of in-room luxury (yoga mats, 360° glass showers, and minibars stocked with small batch beef jerky) along with floor-to-ceiling views of the San Jacinto Mountains and palm-lined boulevards. It seems as though every guest shows up for complimentary happy hour in the Living Room, to peruse a huge library of design books over Chablis and beer.
Chef Stephen Wambach likes to keep things local: You can regularly find him foraging for juniper berries in the San Jacinto hills. He also likes things hard-to-get: The John Dory they serve on the menu is imported all the way from New Zealand. And it’s a safe bet that he likes things buttery: His Parker House rolls are worth every cent of the $10 surcharge. Helming the city’s current in spot, on The Rowan’s top floor, Wambach teases desert palates with the exotic splash of a sea urchin appetizer while also catering to locals with crowd-pleasers like rib eye with huckleberry bordelaise. The Palm Springs movers and shakers who flock here make dinner reservations a must, but you can always drop by the bar for a basket of that house-made bread and a cocktail under the stars.
In the 1930s, this Spanish Colonial compound was one of Hollywood’s favorite hideaways, welcoming everyone from Elizabeth Taylor to Salvador Dali. Norman Vincent Peale favored the spot, too. And thanks to a head-to-toe makeover, it’s enjoying a new wave of glamour. The handsome renovation didn’t mess with the hotel’s charms. The 30 guest rooms retain their original keys (no plastic cards here), and the luxe additions (vintage tiles, leather benches, oriental rugs) would be at home in the library of an uncle with great wealth and taste. For a historic icon, there’s a surprisingly funky side: The general manager leads complimentary yoga classes, the room service martinis are mixed at your door, and nobody raises an eyebrow when a guest starts his day strumming Neil Young tunes by the pool.
A dinner guest once asked a captain at Melvyn’s how he felt about wearing a tuxedo to work each night. He replied, “I’d feel naked otherwise.” Adjacent to the Ingleside Inn, Melvyn’s has received its own gentle refresh: walls opened up, colors were brightened and the menu was revisited. (Thanks to chef Jennifer Town, it’s now possible to get a vegan meal.) But nobody wants things to change too much: At any Sunday afternoon jam session by the piano bar there are nearly as many 30-somethings on the dance floor as Palm Springs retirees.
If you’ve ever wanted to tiptoe from claw-foot tub to al fresco fire-pit without stopping to throw on a robe, this boutique hotel is your kind of place. The original 1933 bungalows have been reconfigured with high-walled outdoor bathing patios where you can soak with a glass of bubbly while watching the moon rise over the mountains. Inside, the 18 rooms and suites are studies in Morocco-meets-Mexico cool, with the added bonus of wine fridges. (You can walk through the lobby toting a Trader Joe’s wine caddy with pride.) Also on-site: a pocket-size spa and Azucar restaurant, whose new chef, Joanne Garcia Colson, should be shaking things up tout suite.
Perhaps it’s the blue-and-white color scheme, or the muffled splashes from the pool or the guests padding up to the bar in bikinis, but there’s something about this 28-room hotel, originally opened in 1951, that seems as serene and faraway as a small Greek island. Rooms come in three categories—“good,” “better,” and “best”—all crisp and comfortable, with substance (good reading lights) as well as style (art you’ll wish you could take home). Lunch at the hotel’s tiny Pantry restaurant stars buckets of veggies, lobster rolls and beautiful salads; Fried Chicken Friday dinners are communal evenings you should reserve in advance.
Albert Frey's 1931 Aluminaire House waits for a permanent home in Palm Springs.
Albert Frey may be remembered as one of the celebrated fathers of Desert Modernism, but the Swiss-born architect’s first American project was actually a model house in New York.
Soon after Frey arrived from Paris, where he had worked for Le Corbusier, the firm of A. Lawrence Kocher enlisted Frey to help design a house for the biennial Allied Arts and Industries/Architectural League of New York expo in 1931.
Dubbed the Aluminaire House, the boxy three-story structure was erected in 10 days with ready-made materials. Its aluminum-panel exterior and its sleek interiors were a hit with visitors and critics.
Almost 90 years later — a meandering history that nearly included demolition — the Aluminaire now sits in a container in Palm Springs, to be rebuilt in a city park being designed by Rios Clementi Hale Studios.
A full-size representation of the house — scaffolding covered with a printed scrim — sits on the site this month for Modernism Week, which runs Thursday through Feb. 25. A scale model of Aluminaire will be on view at Modernism headquarters, part of the campaign to raise the $475,000 still needed to erect the house and restore it.
“Much of the interior needs to be refabricated,” said Frances Campani, who, along with Michael Schwarting, has been shepherding the house through its incarnations for three decades. Both are architects and academics. Schwarting was responsible for bringing the house to the Islip campus of the New York Institute of Technology in 1988 for use as a teaching tool for students.
In 2005, the institute decided to close its Islip branch, and the Aluminaire had to pull up roots again.
In 2014 architectural devotee Mark Davis invited Schwarting and Campani to talk about the Aluminaire at Modernism Week. They received such a resounding welcome that a California branch of the Aluminaire House Foundation was established to bring the house to Palm Springs.
“Frey is so important to Palm Springs, and most of his work is here,” said Davis, a foundation board member. “It’s very rare for one city to have the entire arc of an architect’s career, from the first building to his last.” During Modernism Week, several events will honor Frey, including the premiere of the documentary “Albert Frey: Part 1 — The Architectural Envoy” on Sunday. A community update on the Aluminaire project at the Palm Springs Art Museum (free but reservations no longer available) and a fundraiser at the estate of the late industrial designer Raymond Loewy are scheduled for Feb. 23.
Get your design fix while enjoying the Palm Springs desert.
Luxury Guide to Palm Springs: It’s not exactly groundbreaking to talk about Palm Springs as an ultimate California getaway. The desert town has long been a favorite hot spot for A-list Angelenos—like Hollywood stars Elizabeth Taylor and Bob Hope, who first made it glamorous when they were bound by their studios to be within 200 miles of L.A. at all times. Then it quickly became the place to see and be seen in the swinging ’50s and ’60s, drawing visitors from around the globe.

It's glitchy a lot of the time and I find myself having to close the window and reopen it, way too much. Plus, the new update is kind of annoying with how you have to click the 'select a service' button twice or you will start typing in the box below it.

11. YES NO Is your company’s management committed to developing a market for exports, and does it have the interest and capabilities to commit personnel, time and resources to the process? Does your company offer the same level of service to the customers that is provided to domestic consumers? Does your company have sufficient knowledge about the regulations for providing the service in the target? Does your company have sufficient knowledge about cultural preferences for the consumption of the service in the target?

VAT EXEMPTION • MODE 1 (CROSS-BORDER SUPPLY) If your service is exported to be exclusively consumed abroad, issue your invoice with VAT declared as Zero (0) and keep all supporting documentation in accordance with the provisions of Decree 2223 from 2013. With the aim of avoiding double taxation, Article 254 of the Tax Statute allows fiscal residents to deduct taxes paid abroad associated with foreign income from the taxes to be paid in Colombia, as long as the deduction does not exceed the amount of the tax that should be paid in Colombia for this same amount of income. The aforementioned is notwithstanding the application of any rules contained in DTAs signed by Colombia.
20. Exemption for services that might return to the country: • Services directly related to film production, which, once exported, are broadcasted abroad by their beneficiary in the international market and can be accessed from Colombia by any technological means. • Services directly related to software development, which are copyright protected and, once exported, are disseminated abroad by their beneficiary in the international market and can be accessed from Colombia by any technological means. • MODE 2 (CONSUMPTION ABROAD) In the case of tourist services provided in Colombia, if a foreign resident makes use of these tourist services, issue your invoice with VAT declared as Zero (0) and keep all supporting documentation in accordance with the provisions of Decree 2646 from 2013. • MODE 3 (COMMERCIAL PRESENCE) AND MODE 4 (MOVEMENT OF NATURAL PERSONS) The VAT exemption does not apply. 6.2.2.

The procedure for getting a refund of the VAT is regulated by Decree 2877 from 2013. Identify whether your economic activity falls within any of the special regimes established by the Government to promote foreign trade in services.

In practice, when the consumer of the service abroad pays the supplier of the service in Colombia, he or she usually makes a wire transfer. This transfer is considered as voluntary channeling through the Foreign Exchange Market and requires the filling of Form No. 5 “Foreign Exchange Declaration for Services and Transfers” of the Central Bank. 8.

TweedyVerb+ in Bone tolex with new logo plate.
The TweedyVerb+ is the perfect grab-and-go amp – a very loud 40 watts (2 6L6) in a “Champ” sized package. Our smallest package but packs a punch. This may be our smallest offering but still a flexible and pedal friendly amp with the ability to match up to all guitar types-the perfect “sleeper amp” for jam night. The two tube medium tank reverb goes from subtle to surf and all points in between.

March 8 is designated as International Women’s Day, a day to celebrate the achievements of women across the globe. It is undeniable; women have made tremendous societal contributions as leaders, inventors, authors, in the arts, business, social change, and other areas.
Legislatures across the US alternate between “regular” and “short” sessions with the latter curtailed by upcoming elections. Further impacting the number of bills introduced is that four US states, North Dakota, Texas, Montana and Nevada, host bi-annual sessions, meeting only once every other year.
With the 2018 legislative session being shortened and several states with a strong interest in shared parenting not meeting at all, one might expect the number of bills being considered in 2018 to be lower, perhaps even significantly.
Leading Women for Shared Parenting has now completed its review of statehouses across the US and has identified twenty states considering Shared Parenting Bills in the 2018 legislative session.
Further, five states (Kansas, Missouri, North Carolina, Minnesota and Illinois) have introduced new bills, meaning in the past 2 legislative sessions, 30 US States have considered a legislative change to Shared Parenting.
· Shared Parenting is popular, achieving 70+% favorability in repeated polling & voting results.
· Shared Parenting improves children's relationships with both their mothers and their fathers.
· Shared Parenting reduces stress on children.
As Fatherlessness is a growing epidemic and Family Courts are a very significant contributor, more elected officials are opposing their state Bar Association and joining the push to have their state enact what both current research and experts say is best for children.
A full listing of bills, including links to the proposed language, a listing of bill sponsors and their associated party is available here.
Additionally, LW4SP both hopes and expects shared parenting to be presented in Canada in 2018 and looks forward to advocating for the enactment of this legislation.
For additional analysis, research, articles and other information on why shared parenting after divorce or separation is best for children, families and society, please visit www.lw4sp.org.

When was the last time you did an audit on your goals?
Do you even have a list of your goals to audit?
So, I did a bit of an audit on my goals recently. I will admit right now, I was pretty sure I had missed almost every target.
But, no. As I ticked crossed and "almosted" my way through the chart, I realised that despite (and, actually, in spite of) the curve balls, distractions, hurts, let-downs, WTFs and moments of sheer and undiluted fear, 2018 has not been all bad.
Indeed, there have been challenges. But from them I have grown, and my resilience and determination are better for it.
Even where there have been some "fails", many were the result of changed pathways and a new direction - so they more accurately kind of went by the wayside! And that is totally allowed!
I have done, this year, some things I never thought I ever would. It's been far from a bed of roses.
In fact, the disenchantment and the disappointments have been of the ilk that has, at times, taken my breath away.
I have had to step up, step back, step out of my comfort zone.
Where some doors have been slammed in my face, others have opened. Where there have been learnings and growth, there have come insights and peace of mind.
I've loved and loathed. I have questioned, walked away and graciously declined to partake of that which lent me nil but harm and hurt.
I have embraced with open loving arms; and, finally, I think I am getting my priorities right.
None of this - the good, the bad or the ugly - would have been possible had I not consciously and deliberately set myself some solid goals.
The result? Not that bad, in fact!
There have been a few knocks; and let's face it, the year's not over yet.
But I make a habit of acknowledging that someone, somewhere, is always doing it tougher. Often much, much, tougher.
Why I share this, is because just about every person I speak to endures the same kinds of challenges and milestones: day-in, day-out.
But when you have goals, you have an anchor point; something to ground you, motivate you, set you back on track. Even, a distraction, if you will.
You learn what is applicable and what is not when you have goals. What's really cool, is that even something right out of the blue can fatefully (and sometimes quite spectacularly) set you on a fast-track to achieving them.
Either that, or life can happen and you find that what you thought was a goal was actually a classic red herring and you start your path anew.
Our goals, when apportioned properly, are brilliant motivators. However, there is no point setting them if they are willy-nilly and haphazard.
I give you Ziglar's Wheel of Life Balance. This is my favourite this-time-of-year go-to!
I have adapted it a little to meet my own needs, and to match my own thought patterns and way I see the world. It is a very cool tool!
Now, importantly, these are in no particular order; rather they are randomly listed and, I have found, this means you take each facet on its merits and consider accordingly.
How you go about presenting these goals when you come up with them is completely up to you.
As someone with a predisposition to kinaesthetic and visual styles of information retention, I find penning my list onto a segmented poster with all eight categories equally highlighted works for me.
For you it might be a list on your phone, a stunning, colourful visual completed in indesign or canva, a voice recording or selfie video, a Facebook post (be careful not to overshare!), a handwritten letter to yourself ... the list goes on and the possibilities, as they say, are endless.
They key is to do this YOUR way. This is your thing. Noone else's and the sooner you become comfortable with that, the better your list will be.
Your approach, your accountability, your checks and balances are all up to you.
So too is the way you refer to it throughout the year, or during whatever time frame you choose.
For me, being able to mark off goals achieved throughout the year was probably more productive than prioritising.
If you're honest with yourself, really, you know what your priorities are. And it's discipline then, which decides whether you respect that.
Short, medium and long term goals are a cool way of allowing yourself the wonderful sense of feeling like you're getting somewhere!
So too, small and larger goals - and there is no harm in breaking them up into stages either!
Some of your goals will be achievements set to carry you closer to a bigger goal.
Some will be those things we call BHAGS the Big, Hairy Audacious Goals! Whatever they are, make them challenging but doable and, vitally, as Simon Sinek will attest, know your WHY!
Knowing why you're doing something, and why a goal is set, is the most important "thing" to be clear on. There's your motivation, your reason d'etre, your refusal to quit.
Lastly though, you'll have your knockers and naysayers and sometimes the loudest will be that voice within.
Acknowledge that, though, and have a few tools in your kit bag to silence the critics - whomever they might be.
This is your journey, and your journey alone.
It's no one else's business or prerogative to participate or pontificate on what path you're on.
Now, go set some goals!
And may you be successful!

NASA’s Earth Observation System (EOS) is a monumental accomplishment of engineering and creative prowess, launching many satellites, data analysis programs, and careers. Imagery that is collected by satellites is beamed down to earth to be processed into a variety of formats. One of the most common data types for disseminating these images is as an HDF-EOS file type. HDF-EOS files are prescribed as the standard data format for information collected by the Aqua, Terra, and Aura satellites. For my Thesis I am using the National Snow and Ice Data Center‘s MOD10A2 snow cover product, which is delivered as an HDF file. These files are fairly difficult to manage, and are not readable using most standard GIS software (ArcMap, R, etc). There are a number of ways to manage these files, and for my purposes I will be converting them to the more universal Geo-TIFF format. This page describes my process for managing these data. This page is developed as my deliverable product for my Directed Independent Study titled HDF-EOS management processing completed in partial fulfillment of my academic plan of study as an M.S. Geography candidate at Western Washington University. These pages are designed to be a resource for anyone seeking to use HDF-EOS data for their own research.
All data products are delivered as raster tiles called granules. Each granule represents an individual raster ’tile’ defined by the naming convention. Reverb has a hard limit of 2000 granules to add to your cart at any one time. You may need to process your request in more than one batch, either by region, or more likely, by time period.
First ask yourself, how many HDF-EOS files do I need to work with? NASA’s Echo data management portal allows you to re-project HDF files and save them as GeoTIFFs easily, limited to 1,000 granules or less. If you have a small area of interest (and short time span), your best bet is to select the files that you need and try to have them processed by NASA on their home servers using the Perform Service options. Save yourself some heartache! Here is a link to an excellent tutorial produced by NASA. If you have a large area of interest that covers two or more granules you may want to follow the steps below which can reproject and mosaic your data all at once. I suppose you could mosaic your data at the end on your own machine but that is computationally intensive. If you determine that you do need to perform these transformations on your own, proceed with caution.

Although the more superficial features of the Latin-American countries are becoming better known to North Americans as a result of improved travel facilities, their cultural and economic problems still remain largely unappreciated. The Rockefeller foundation, aware of this fact, has provided grants, administered by the Association of American University presses, in support of the translation into English of the more significant Latin-American scholarly and literary works. This collection, edited by Jose Luis Martinez, the eminent Mexican scholar and critic who has written widely on the subject of Mexican literature, was originally published as El ensayo mexicano moderno. In selecting the essay to be included in this translation, Professor Hilborn has aimed primarily at presenting a Mexican national outlook, in the hope that more people may be led to interest themselves in the psychological and spiritual aspects (as well as the economic and practical considerations) of Mexican culture. It would be difficult to discover any problem confront the modern Mexican, or almost any member of the Latin-American community of nations, that does not receive attention in this anthology. The essays translated by Professor Hilborn are, almost without exception, of high literary quality, and they will make a profound impression on the English-speaking reader.
Martinez prefaces the anthology with a detailed and illuminating study of the essay as an art form. The essayists are ten presented in roughly chronological order, giving the reader a sense of Mexico’s growing national consciousness. The first of the essays date from the last decade of the nineteenth century, the point at which Martinez perceives the first flowering of Mexico’s literary and intellectual modernity, marked by a decided break with the romanticism which had lingered in Spanish America long after its decline in Europe. Other essays deal with Mexico’s cultural past and the literary figures who contributed most significantly to it, with the period preceding the Mexican Revolution of 1910 and the struggles which followed this upheaval, while others are on purely literary and philosophical themes. The depressing realities of social conditions in Mexico are not ignored but the contrast of opulence and misery is not regarded as permanent, and, without exception, the writers presented to us through Martinez have something vital to say about their nation.
For Canadians this anthology provides an excellent basis for a comparative study of Canada and Mexico. For Americans, it could be a startling revelation of the image their country presents to their southern neighbours. In international relations, knowledge of the points of view presented in this anthology is of incalculable value for any project aimed at strengthening the solidarity of our continent.
José Luis Martínez was a Mexican academic, diplomat, essayist, historian, bibliographer and editor.
H.W. HILBORN was educated at the University of Toronto, and he has taught at Acadia University and at Queen’s University, where he has been Professor and Head of Department of Spanish and Italian since 1960. Professor Hilborn has served as Chairman of the comediantes conference of the Modern Language Association, and as president of the Ontario Modern Language Teachers’ Association.

In a contest of defensive dominance, the Waukee Warrior girls basketball team limited Marshalltown to just nine overall points in an 84-9 conference rout.
The Warriors did not allow a single double digit scorer while witnessing four of their own put up double digit scoring figures on the night, the eighth time this season Waukee has accomplished such an offensive feat. The game was pretty much in hand from the word go as Waukee held a 25-1 advantage following the first quarter and a 54-3 lead at the half. Waukee continued to pour on the ultimate combination of defense and offense, limiting Marshalltown to six points while scoring 22 points offensively. Following an 8-0 fourth quarter run, the Warriors picked up their seventh consecutive and 16th overall victory of the 2018-19 campaign.
Future Northwest Missouri State star Paityn Rau led the offensive charge with 19 points off of 7-of-13 shooting from the floor. Rau was a big part of the perfect free throw performance going five-for-five from the charity stripe. Sophomore Lindsey Kelderman blew well past her 8.1 points per game average with 18 against the Bobcats on an absolute perfect shooting night, eight-for-eight from field goal range and two-for-two from beyond the three point arc. Fellow sophomore Katie Dinnebier poured in 16 points courtesy of five-of-nine field goal shooting, three-of-four three point shooting, and three-of-three free throw shooting. Following Dinnebier was yet another sophomore star in Peyton Kelderman who added in ten points courtesy of a four-for-four field goal shooting and two-for-two three point shooting night.
Waukee officially rounds out the regular season with an overall mark of 16-4. The next time Waukee will entertain the competitive hardwood will be on Saturday, Feb. 16 as they welcome in Des Moines Abraham Lincoln to the Waukee Field House.

A family has been searching for their beloved cats since the devastating wildfire destroyed their home in Paradise, California.
They refused to give up looking.
Their son, Tyson (4 1/2), really missed his best friends - Optimus (black) and Bumblebee (tabby). Even though he knew they had lost his dad's home, he gave away his toys to his cousins who had lost everything. The only wish he had was to find his kitties.
Tyson decided to write a letter to Santa to tell him what he wanted for Christmas this year - some collars and a leash so when he found his cats, they would never get lost again.
His parents reached out to every shelter, looking for them. When they contacted FieldHaven Feline Center, Heidi Smyth immediately stepped up and began the rescue mission. They set out traps in the area and were determined to find them.
On December 12th, a rescuer spotted a black cat in one of their traps that night. They transported him back to FieldHaven and notified the family.
"They had been hoping, praying and looking for their two kitties for five weeks. Their prayers were answered that day, especially for their son, Tyson," the rescue said.
Tyson's father, Joe, went to the shelter after he received the great news. "He didn't bring Tyson that day because he didn't want his son to be disappointed one more time. They've been making the rounds of all the shelters for weeks, each time walking away sad. But not this time!"
When Joe came home with Optimus, Tyson was so surprised and excited that he couldn't stop holding his best friend. "Of all the toys and special items he lost in the fire, the only thing that mattered to him was that his kitties were saved," Candice, Tyson's mother, said.
The rescue continued as they were set out to find Optimus' brother Bumblebee. "Each reunion energizes us even more to find more babies and deliver them to their families' arms," the rescue said.
The following Sunday, Heidi delivered another wonderful news - they got him!
"I never make promises I can't keep so when I told Candice we were going to find Bumblebee for Tyson, I knew we had our work cut out for us," Heidi said.
"So grateful for an amazing trapper, one cooperative Bumblebee, and the force that is FieldHaven to keep me honest and make this little family whole again."
"He snuggled Bumblebee all the way home," Candice said. "It makes my heart so happy to see my little man reunited with his babies."
"It was a great day knowing that FieldHaven's staff and volunteers played a role in reuniting this family with their beloved kitties," the rescue said.
Together again, the two feline siblings couldn't be happier!

Hey, young adults, living at home with Mom and Dad isn't the end of the world — if you follow the right advice.
As it goes, reports the U.K.'s Daily Mail, nearly 30 percent of adults under age 35 are living at home with their parents.
Why? Well, the economy continues to sputter along, producing few entry-level jobs that allow young college graduates to get their careers underway.
And thanks to soaring tuition costs, there is the record amount of college-loan debt that young people are carrying. Nearly 37 million young Americans owe more than $1 trillion in student-loan debt — most of it FEDERAL student loan debt.
When you combine college loans with credit cards and money bummed from family members, says CNN, each member of the Class of 2013 owes an average of $35,200 — and thousands owe lots more than that, making the cost of their monthly student-loan payments well more than the cost of a mortgage for a starter home.
So many young people are opting to stay at home with Mom and Dad. Let me offer some helpful tips to make these living arrangements slightly more bearable.
The odds are good that your mother is much more willing than your father to keep covering your expenses even though you may be in your 20s or 30s. Parade magazine reports that 41 percent of parents are giving 10 percent of their combined income to their still-at-home kids.
So the last thing you want to do is further antagonize your father. To that end, always be sure to put the Reader's Digest back on the toilet lid, where it belongs. If you need to borrow Dad's crossword-puzzle pencil to jot something down, be sure to put that back, too — on the toilet lid, right next to the Reader's Digest.
Every now and then, approach Dad. Tell him that you are sorry for struggling so long and hard, but the economy is killing you. Still, you say, you would like to pay some monthly stipend to help cover the costs of food and utilities — but make sure Mom is there when you make the offer, as she will want to hear nothing of it. In this way, you can placate the old man without having to come up with the extra cash.
By this point in your life, with you still living at home and all, your parents will hold fairly low expectations for you and your future. They won't blame it all on you, of course. Gallup recently released a poll that shows almost 60 percent of Americans think the American dream is dead. Many parents worry their children will be the first generation to not do better than their parents.
In any event, since our political leaders are doing little to address our country's core problems — debt, deficit, spending, entitlements, economic growth, federal student-loan bubble, etc. — there is every reason to expect young people may live at home way longer than they, or their parents, would like.
You'll need a sense of humor to get through these difficult times. I recommend Reader's Digest's "Life in These United States" — but, as I said, don't forget to put the magazine back on the toilet lid, where it belongs.

Many marine ecologists think that the biggest single threat to marine ecosystems today is overfishing. Our appetite for fish is exceeding the oceans' ecological limits with devastating impacts on marine ecosystems. Scientists are warning that overfishing results in profound changes in our oceans, perhaps changing them forever. Not to mention our dinner plates, which in future may only feature fish and chips as a rare and expensive delicacy.
More often than not, the fishing industry is given access to fish stocks before the impact of their fishing can be assessed, and regulation of the fishing industry is, in any case, woefully inadequate.
The reality of modern fishing is that the industry is dominated by fishing vessels that far out-match nature's ability to replenish fish. Giant ships using state-of-the-art fish-finding sonar can pinpoint schools of fish quickly and accurately. The ships are fitted out like giant floating factories - containing fish processing and packing plants, huge freezing systems, and powerful engines to drag enormous fishing gear through the ocean. Put simply: the fish don't stand a chance.
Populations of top predators, a key indicator of ecosystem health, are disappearing at a frightening rate, and 90 percent of the large fish that many of us love to eat, such as tuna, swordfish, marlin, cod, halibut, skate, and flounder - have been fished out since large scale industrial fishing began in the 1950s. The depletion of these top predator species can cause a shift in entire oceans ecosystems where commercially valuable fish are replaced by smaller, plankton-feeding fish. This century may even see bumper crops of jellyfish replacing the fish consumed by humans.
These changes endanger the structure and functioning of marine ecosystems, and hence threaten the livelihoods of those dependent on the oceans, both now and in the future.
The over-exploitation and mismanagement of fisheries has already led to some spectacular fisheries collapses. The cod fishery off Newfoundland, Canada collapsed in 1992, leading to the loss of some 40,000 jobs in the industry. The cod stocks in the North Sea and Baltic Sea are now heading the same way and are close to complete collapse.
Instead of trying to find a long-term solution to these problems, the fishing industry's eyes are turning towards the Pacific - but this is not the answer. Politicians continue to ignore the advice of scientists about how these fisheries should be managed and the need to fish these threatened species in a sustainable way.
You have the power to protect our oceans!

Welcome to our home on Lynx Loop in Sandia Heights near Albuquerque, New Mexico.
The weather station in use is the Davis Wireless Vantage Pro2. These pages are updated every 5 minutes. The meteorological day used at this station ends at midnight. Since early September 2011, the station hardware has been located on a ten foot pole in the south side yard. The wind instruments are at the top of the pole, with the rain gauge, temperature, humidity, and pressure sensors about five feet above ground level. Wind speed and direction data are materially degraded by this location, while temperature, humidity, and pressure data should be pretty trustworthy. A UV sensor and a solar sensor were added on January 10, 2012. At mid-day they are well exposed, but the early morning curve is masked a bit by a neighbor's house near the winter solstice, and my own home near the summer solstice. Arizona cypress along the south fence will intercept some late afternoon light at most seasons.

The NBC TODAY show recently reported on 23 elementary schools in Orange County, Florida, that have been reducing recess to minutes per day or canceling it all together, so that more time can be spent in the classroom. Whoa. Let’s get a grip, folks. In a nation of increasingly obese kids, getting rid of recess makes no sense.
Orange County schools aren't alone in the drive to keep kids locked in class all day. School administrators across the United States are making similar schedule changes. Why? Apparently, the drive to dismantle the jungle gyms of America is in response to Common Core examinations.
Less than five years ago, the governors of 45 states and the District of Columbia took up the Common Core standards. They began implementing them with the support of the Obama administration, which aimed at common standards and assessments as a means of comparing achievement in math, language arts, and literacy across schools in the states. In short order, teachers and students started orienting themselves towards the Common Core set of mandatory standardized tests. And because a mechanism in the Common Core discussion often ties teachers' pay and job status to the results of student performance on those tests, many schools have taken the block of time regularly carved-out for recess and put it towards classroom time to teach the test.
Increasing numbers of school administrators, teachers unions, and policymakers have taken the position that there simply isn't enough time in the day to accomplish what needs to be done for students. If so, the solution is not to do away with recess. Instead, either lengthen the school year or think about cutting back on the teaching load.
“Preparing America's students for success” is one of the slogans often trumpeted by the Common Core initiative. It is a terrific aspiration—and an even better objective. But if you ask most parents, teachers and students, they will tell you that, under current conditions, it is closer to imprisonment than education.
With physical education classes now almost non-existent in our schools, recess needs to be a part of the school day. Students—and teachers—need occasional, repeated breaks from their work. It's how the human body and mind get repaired and recharged.
Cramming more and more into the same number of school days makes no sense. If teaching everything is a necessity, which we doubt is the norm, then keeping kids active and healthy is no place to make a sacrifice. If you think hyperactivity and attention deficit are problems now, let’s see what happens in a school day with no recess and no physical activity.
We need to think a lot harder about what it means for kids to spend time in school. Sacrificing their health is not an ethically acceptable metric, even if it improves performance on standardized tests. Cramming is not the same as learning.

With a weak and ineffective J-Left establishment still reeling from the Trump-Putin Summit, McFeels and Halberstram survey the damage done to their narrative in the days following the event. As the smoke clears, and as the media struggles to find footing, desperate to pivot to something -- anything, not a single member of the political establishment responded to their shrill calls for a coup against the Trump government. The Coup D'Etat turned Coup D'Flop. In the 2nd hour McFeels and Halberstram react to audio of top lame duck Paul Ryan lamenting the blood and soil nationalism of the Alt-Right and the last gasps of Never Trump, Inc. desperately trying to stem the tide of Whites noticing. It's all ahead on Fash the Nation!

Activists are up in arms against a Calcutta High Court order allowing Kolkata Knight Riders, one of the teams competing in the ipl cricket matches, to use microphones during T-20 cricket matches at the Eden Garden stadium.
On March 12, the court stayed a West Bengal State Pollution Control Board (SPCB) directive that banned use of loudspeakers and bursting of crackers in public places in view of school examinations. The directive dated February 24 conformed to a 1996 high court order that bans use of loudspeakers near residential areas and educational institutions during examinations.
The court allowed the cricket team, co-owned by actor Shahrukh Khan, to use microphones and burst crackers within 90 decibel limit saying there are no residential areas near Eden Garden. SPCB officials said this was not true as the city does not have exclusive residential zones; most localities have mixed use.
The stay order not only overturns the 1996 high court ban but also ignores the recently revised central norms on noise pollution that prescribe a 55 dB limit during daytime and a 45 dB limit at night in residential areas, said a senior official of SPCB. “We will file a petition by March-end asking the high court to clarify its order,” said Biswajit Mukherjee, chief law officer of the SPCB.
Environmentalist Subhash Dutta said the court exemption for IPL matches will encourage other persons to violate noise rules.
Political parties are the first in the queue. “If rules can be relaxed for cricket matches, why are we stopped from holding political rallies,” asked Binoy Konar, a cpi(m) leader.

If you're after practicality from your plug-in hybrid, look no further than the Mitsubishi Outlander. The SUV has been a hit with company car drivers who appreciate the tax benefits of the hybrid over a diesel.
That means there are plenty on the secondhand market, with prices starting at around £10,000. A budget of £15,000 will get you a high-spec 2015 model in good condition and with low mileage.

Greenhouse plastic home depot – Many times in the orchard with the arrival of autumn and the fall of temperatures our summer crops begin to die. Because they do not resist the cold nights of autumn and winter, crops such as tomatoes, peppers, eggplants or cucumber are among the first in suffering from this. On the other hand, in some regions due to the cold winters it is impossible to cultivate hardly anything on the outside. For this entire if we have an orchard it is always interesting to make or buy a greenhouse.
The plastic is the most important part of the greenhouse. And in this case much more because it also gives us total stability and makes it much more compact. Choosing the plastic for the greenhouse is important. We must choose a plastic that lasts as long as possible and does not break for any reason. If you find it complicated, you always have the option to buy one greenhouse plastic home depot.
We know that plastic contains a high range of synthetic and semi-synthetic materials. Mostly malleable and moldable made with polymers of organic compounds. It also contains substances derived from petrochemical products. Now greenhouse plastic home depot has used the same basic technology to create a greenhouse plastic that divides sunlight. Directing the portion that activates photosynthesis into the greenhouse. Also benefiting the plants, while the other portion goes into a water purification system.

If you have read any of the additional articles on this website or perhaps have seen the news, you will know it is very easy to take someone’s identity or even credit cards. This concern with the unknown prevents many from using credit in any way because they do not know what may or may not happen. You should be mindful of these problems but don’t let it affect the method that you live your financial life. If we resided in fear of everything that could happen, would we have ever leave the house in the morning Understanding and understanding this is very important but there are certain things you can do to make it as tough as possible to for the bad guys to get a hold of your identity. This information will give you three principal pointers on protecting your credit score through active prevention of the bad guys.
The first tip for active protection against the bad guys would be to sign up for identity safety. This is a key and cost a great deal of money. In case you are single, it often expenses you under ten dollars a month or when you have joint credit, you will pay concerning fifteen dollars a month. This kind of product offers you the opportunity to check your credit report normally as you want to and does not have specific times this can be done. You can do this from the convenience of your home twenty four hours each day, seven days a week. There is certainly fraud assistance of approximately $25,000 if your id is stolen. Another highlight is recovery assistance and also counseling offered by most companies. Think through for this item: you are giving your chance to check your credit as frequently as you want to whilst providing a solid strategy in case your identity is actually stolen.
The next step it is possible to take is to place alerts on your credit record. Many people who have had their credit stolen have flagged their particular credit. This will often can be found in the form of an alert about the credit report stating that they need to have their identity examined before continuing with any credit applications. This ensures that only the correct people are able to get credit and it is more active prevention of the bad guys.
The final pointer for you is always to check over all of the credit card statements thoroughly whenever you receive them. If you find charges that are not your own, you need to call your own credit card company so that you can question this charge. Looking at your statements as soon as you receive them is imperative because you can usually only dispute fees received within the last 62 days. If you place it down with the aim of looking at the statement later, this often does not happen. Life is busy and will get in the way of your financial situation if you are not careful.
These three points on your own credit score and active prevention of the bad guys should show you you don’t have to be worried about what it is out there. The key is to be prepared and to have a game plan in place in case fraud ever happens to a person.

Big Data is a new field in both scientific research and IT industry focusing on collections of data sets which are so huge and complex that create numerous difficulties not only in processing them but also in transferring and storing them. The Big Data science tries to overcome problems or optimize performancebased on the “5V” concept: Volume, Variety, Velocity, Variability and Value. A Big Data infrastructure integrates advanced IT technologies such as Cloud computing, databases, network and HPC, providing scientists with all the required functionality for performing high level research activities. The EU project of ENVRI is an example of developing Big Data infrastructure for environmental scientists with a special focus on issues like architecture, metadata frameworks, data discovery etc.
In Big Data infrastructures like ENVRI, aggregating huge amount of data from different sources, and transferring them between distribution locations are important processes in the many experiments . Efficient data transfer is thus a key service required in the big data infrastructure.
At the same time, Software Defined Networking (SDN) is a new promising approach of networking. SDN decouples the control interface from network devices and allows high level applications to manipulate network behavior. However, most of the existing high level data transfer protocols treat network as a black box, and do not include the control for network level functionality.
There is a scientific gap between Big Data science and Software Defined Networking and -until now- there is no work done combining these two technologies. This gap leads our research on this project.
