This work discusses the design of a nonlinear controller for a single mass model of a variable speed wind turbine without measurement of wind speed. Dynamic load on the drive train shaft plays a vital role in turbine lifespan. So the design of the nonlinear controller should pay more care in mitigation of transient load on the drive train shaft. The objective of the controller is to extract the optimal power with limited dynamic loads on the shaft. The above objectives are satisfied by tracking the reference rotor speed which is done by a nonlinear controller. Effective wind speed is obtained by Modified Newton Raphson (MNR), which is used for deriving the reference rotor speed. In this paper, a nonlinear controller, i.e. double integral sliding mode controller (DISMC) is proposed for the single mass model of a wind turbine at partial load region (below rated wind speed). Lyapunov candidate function is used for analyzing the stability of the proposed controller. The performance of the proposed controller is compared with conventional integral sliding mode controller (ISMC) in terms of performance parameters. The robustness of the controllers are analyzed in the presence of different input disturbances and different wind speed profiles. From results, it is found that DISMC can able to accommodate various input disturbance level up to 5kNm.

Tourism plays an important role in contributing to cultural exchange and sustainable development. On the one hand, it involves a short-term consumer experience of other locales. Tourist can play and leave, remaining isolated from negative impacts at the local level. On the other hand, tourism may increase recognition of the importance of respecting cultural diversity and developing an identity as a world citizen. Consumer can play a major role in the transformation of societies towards sustainability. Tourism is heterogeneous in nature, made up of many different types of traveler, seeking a wide range of tourism products. Tourist demand depends on the availability of time and money, on images, perceptions and attitudes. Tourists want experiences not places.
This paper has aimed to give motivations and behaviors of tourists and new trends in seeking of destinations, which are very important about the tourist supply.
The results of the analysis for the tourist’s profile can be used by actors of tourism in the area, who are interested in planning and development of tourism.

It was a dark Saturday night as my friend and I wondered into the movie theatre. We purchased our snacks and then grabbed our seats front and center. Ten minutes went by and the lights dim as the Halloween theme music began to play.
The original Halloween film was released in 1978. It was about a boy named Michael who murdered his sister and was sentenced to prison. After 15 years of being locked up, he escaped and returned to his hometown looking for his next victim.
40 years later, now 2018, a Halloween sequel was released, and it blew my socks off.
The movie was filmed in Charleston, South Carolina, and it took a total of 38 days to complete making it. The film grossed more than $91 million, making it the highest grossing film in the franchise. The first Halloween movie grossed with $47 million.
This new movie still stars our favorite Michael Myers’ victim Laurie Strode, played by Jamie Lee Curtis, except she is not the victim anymore. This time she is the killer and is determined to hunt down Michael for revenge.
The Halloween franchise has a total of eleven movies. They came out in 1978, 1981, 1982, 1988, 1989, 1995, 1998, 2002, 2007, 2009 and 2018. Jamie Lee Curtis has starred in five of the eleven movies.
The reason Halloween has survived still to this day is because of the music, the good old-fashioned suspense over buckets of blood and because Halloween is the essential popcorn horror film that has few equals, meaning it will never get old.
Halloween is full of suspense, gore, and thrills. It will keep you on your toes with jump scares and spooky music. I definitely recommend it if you are searching for a film that will give you a good scare; it is the perfect post-Halloween night.

Aside from private homes, Al Cielo Hotel & Restaurant is one of only a handful of accommodations on the two-mile long beach. Its signature attraction is your “deeded” palapa for the length of your stay. Along with cushioned recliners with generous spacing between, these permanent umbrellas that blend into the landscape provide ample shade for those needing a break-in period to the Caribbean sun, and defined space for those seeking romantic—and somewhat regal—beach time.
With only four rooms (named for the elements), the hotel never felt crowded. And though they could be updated a bit and are somewhat dark inside due to the wood used, the rooms are cozy without feeling cramped. What we found slightly lacking was easily trumped: first floor porches right on the beach, hammocks in each room, and second floor balconies with unobstructed ocean views.
Given our goal of complete R&R, it was refreshing to find that there was only one other dining choice on the beach. About ½ mile south is Café del Mar. With only five Mexican-beer-branded plastic tables directly in the sand, this traditional casual fare café recalls a typical pre-Riviera establishment.

The Medisana HUB underbed is an electrically operated heater for the whole bed with high comfort.
Not only in the cold time of the year but also for a pre-heated and comfortable bed. Even very strenuous times with lots of sports or even a lot of stress, leave the body tired and limp. A hot bath and then into a bed with cozy warmth.So you can sleep, recover and give the body strength again. The size of the electrically heated lower bed of 1.50 m is sufficient for one person. The function “Safety system with overheating protection” protects you from high heat development. The material is a polyester fleece.
When the heat bed is spread smoothly on the bed, the straps under the longitudinal sides and a suitable band can achieve a tight orientation transversely and longitudinally. The warming down bed must not be wrinkled, which would limit the function and cause damage. The bedlaken is laid over it and draws everything smoothly.
When an upper bed rests on the heat develops faster. Step to heat up, then suffice for continued operation Stage 1. Recommended is the pre-heating of the bed approx. 30 minutes before sleeping.
After the many efforts of everyday life, the muscle hardening not only can be felt, even the knots which disappear on the warming bed can be felt. The heat dissipated the tensions and the blood flow is intensified. Just untrained bodies, which are suddenly confronted with sports activities, thank the warm support. The body has many possibilities of self healing that can be well activated with sufficient heat.
2 settings on the heat transfer bed allow for the pleasant and sustained warming of the body. Individually, what you can do well. The cable remote control provides good service. If you are relaxed and resting on it and notice how the blood flow to the body, you can not get up and switch.
The cord is 2.35 m long and is sufficient for the operation in lying down very well. The sliding switch is easy to operate and the step adjustment is easy to recognize in red. The overheat protection with automatic cut-off protection prevents excessive heat generation.
The use of the warming under bed Medisana HUB 60215 is very comfortable. Suitable is for those who appreciate a pre-heated bed very much. For small children and frail people, use should only be carried out under supervision. The operation is so easy with the sliding switch, but not suitable for careless play with it.
For health reasons, the use is a wonderful addition to relaxing activities.

The Arizona Department of Education has released the 2017-2018 "A through F" letter grades for schools across the Valley.
The schools were broken down by grades K-8, 9-12 and hybrid schools.
Compared to last year, the percentage of schools with A's, B's and C's all increased. Meanwhile, the percentage of schools with D's all decreased.
In two out of the three categories, F's declined as well.
Some schools that received an 'A' are Red Mountain Ranch Elementary in the Mesa Unified School District, Desert Harbor Elementary in the Peoria Unified School District, Sonoma Ranch Elementary in the Gilbert Unified School District and Saguaro High School in the Scottsdale Unified School District.
One of the schools that received an 'F' was Gila Bend Elementary. The superintendent from the Gila Bend Unified School District told ABC15 their plan was to "just keep working hard".

In Dremel, data is stored as nested relations. The schema for a relation is a tree, all of whose nodes are attributes, and whose leaf attributes hold values. We explore filter and aggregate queries that are given in the Dremel dialect of SQL. Complications arise because of repeated attributes, i.e., attributes that are allowed to have more than one value. We focus on the common class of Dremel queries that are processed on column-stored data in a way that results in query processing time that is linear on the size of the relevant data, i.e., data in the columns that participate in the query. We formally define the data model, the query language and the algorithms for query processing in column-stored data. The concepts of repetition context and semi-flattening are introduced here and play a central role in understanding this class of queries and their algorithms.

Is Jupiter Aligned With Saturn?
Thread: Is Jupiter Aligned With Saturn?
internet news, beautiful day, WHAT NEX@T?
you know, i can't help but wonder if this was partly my fault.
yesterday, i came VERY close to starting a thread saying something like "can the forum slow down a bit, i've been busy lately, i can't keep up with all the happenings"--but i didn't for obvious reasons.
but now, i'm thinking if i HAD started a thread like that, none of this would have happened, because that one action would have changed the actions that followed, and those actions would have caused different re-actions, and so on..... and all the weird happenings of late would not have happened.
Damn I dont believe it. My ISP takes my connection down for upgrades and I miss all the excitment.
internet news got put on moderation because he reacted badly to the recent pressure to change his ways i.e.-not saying "interesting..." so much. then he came back, and possibly did some things that are against the rules, like get his "friends" to come back and plead his case. that was when i lost respect for him, and his ability to make good decisions.
the beautiful day thread was closed without warning, which jonno took personally, then it was opened again. now i think it will be closed again, but that's a guess.
other stuff happened, but i don't want to comment on it, until i get the facts straight.

Nanoparticles based on transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD) are considered to hold great promise as boundary lubricating additive/material for improving friction and wear of engineering functional surfaces. However, TMD nanoparticles cannot provide a comprehensive surface protection against oxidation, corrosion or sludge control. Therefore, the current lubricant developments may still have to depend on conventional additives such as zinc dialkyl dithiophosphate (ZDDP), and it is essential to understand the interaction of nanoparticles with such additives in order to explore how these nanoparticles could be commercially employed in fully formulated lubricants. This paper examines the tribological properties of three different nanoparticles: inorganic fullerene-like MoS2, rhenium-doped MoS2 and MoS2 nanotubes in steel and steel with preformed ZDDP tribofilm surfaces using a pin-on-disc-type tribometer under reciprocating sliding conditions. The resulting tribofilms have been evaluated using scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The results show that although the nanoparticles are able to reduce friction in all cases, the resulting tribofilm composition and morphology, and their lubricating mechanisms are significantly different. The MoS2 nanoparticles and nanotubes show good synergism with ZDDP, and tribofilms formed from nanoparticles exhibit improved friction and wear properties compared to that typically formed from ZDDP.
SKF Engineering & Research Center, Nieuwegein.
The effect of ZDDP on fretting wear was investigated in a ball on flat machine. The results confirm previous work that anti-wear agents may reduce friction and wear in fretting contacts. It was further found that temperature, adsorption time, base oil polarity as well as the presence of other surface active additives in the oil were all important parameters affecting the ability of ZDDP to protect the surfaces against fretting wear.
Traditionally rolling contact fatigue observed in bearing field applications was subsurface initiated. However, despite an improvement in the properties of steel, some factors such as downsizing in bearing design, extreme loading of bearings as well as demanding application conditions (start-stop cycles) have led to an increase in cases of surface damage related to surface initiated fatigue, which essentially comes from surface distress. Possible causes leading to surface initiated fatigue are: material and surface properties, marginal lubrication and lubricant chemical composition. Lubricants are formulated products composed of a base oil and an additive package designed for a specific application. Extreme-pressure (EP) and antiwear (AW) additives are chemically active, they react with the steel surfaces in contact to form a protective additive-derived layer, thus reducing friction and controlling wear. However, certain EP/AW additives that increase the performance of other machine elements, such as gears, can be detrimental for bearings running in the same lubrication environment. Therefore, there is a need to gain a fundamental understanding of the mechanisms of interaction of the lubricant additives affecting bearing performance and to predict the bearing performance in terms of lubrication environment and application conditions. Antiwear and extreme pressure additives form a protective layer on the surface of the contacting steel surfaces. Therefore, in order to identify the plausible mechanisms that govern the detrimental effect of additives on bearing performance, it is necessary to identify the parameters affecting the additive-derived layer formation and the tribological properties of this layer, as they are directly related to the additive reactivity towards the surface. To identify these parameters this thesis has been divided into three areas of study; the lubricant composition, the operation conditions relevant for bearing applications, and the properties of the contacting surfaces. The work on the effect of lubricant composition on additive-derived reaction layer formation, especially when related to ZDDP chemistry, has mainly been focused on the different formulations of the additive and the inherent properties due to the different chemical structures, concentrations and interaction with other additives present in the lubricant. The role of the base oil has not been sufficiently addressed, however the relevance of synthetic base oils has brought a new focus on the effect of the interactions between the base oil and additive molecules on tribological performance. The polarity of the base oil was selected as the key parameter to study. Several operating conditions (in terms of lambda ratio, temperature and additive concentration) have been previously studied. It has been shown that low lambda ratio, meaning high metal to metal contact, high temperature and high additive concentration lead to a high reactivity of the additives and therefore to thicker reaction layers. However, the majority of these studies have been performed under pure sliding conditions or at high slide-roll ratios (SRR > 50%), corresponding to typical operating conditions for gears. The behaviour of the additives when the slide-roll ratio ranges from between 0 to 10%, conditions that can be found in bearing applications, has hardly been addressed. Finally, the influence of the surface on the activation and reactivity of the additive was studied using different counterparts (steel and stainless steel), all present in bearing applications. The nature and properties of the derived reaction layers, as a function of base oil-additive interaction, operating conditions and contacting materials, in terms of thickness, morphology, nanomechanical properties and chemical composition, were studied using a series of surface analysis techniques. Zinc dialkyldithiophosphate (ZDDP) and low viscosity model oils as well as commercial basestocks, with similar physical properties but different polarities were selected for this study. The influence of base oil polarity, operating conditions and contacting surfaces on the additive performance was studied at the nanoscale level using Atomic Force Microscopy and the tribological performance was evaluated using a ball-on-disc test rig under mixed rolling-sliding conditions in the boundary lubrication regime. An in-situ interferometry technique was used to monitor the additive-derived reaction layer formation, and the chemical composition, morphology and nanomechanical properties were studied using X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy, Atomic Force Microscopy and Nanoindentation respectively. The polarity of the base oil influences the tribological performance of ZDDP additives in rolling-sliding lubricated contacts. The same additive presents differences in friction and wear performance as a function of the type of oil it is blended in. The polarity of the oil influences the growth rate and reaction layer thickness of ZDDP antiwear layers. The polarity of the molecules determines the way they approach and attach to the surface, influencing the final reaction layer thickness, as well as the structure and characteristics of the reaction layer. A thinner layer is formed when the additive is blended in the polar oil, due to the higher affinity of the polar base oil molecules for the steel surface, that limit the access of the additive molecules to the surface and therefore their ability to attach and react with it to form a protective reaction layer. The morphology of the reaction layers derived from polar base oils solutions consist of large, smooth pads, identified as features with load carrying capacity. The formation of this type of structure, and the nanomechanical properties of the layer, explain the better wear performance exhibited by those layers. A model for the formation of the reaction layer, consisting of three stages: activation, wearing-out and equilibrium, is proposed. Regarding the operating conditions, shear was identified as a fundamental parameter for the activation of additives on rubbing steel surfaces and the properties of the derived reaction layer. The influence of different metallic materials was studied using different steel/stainless steel pairs. The results show how different metallic materials lead to the formation of layer, similar in thickness but with very different topographies. The presence of extensive cracks on the layers formed on the stainless steel surface indicates that the nature of the oxides present on the surface influence the adhesion properties of the reaction layer.

Functional additives, particularly extreme-pressure and antiwear additives, in formulated oil will compete to adsorb and form a protective layer in tribological contacts. The thickness of the layer is determined by the equilibrium between the formation and removal processes. In this article, the interactions between additives and base oil molecules and operating conditions influence friction and wear are studied. One polar (ester oil) and one non-polar (poly-α-olefin) commercial base oil blended with zinc dialkyl dithiophosphates were studied. The tribological performance was evaluated using a ball-on-disc test rig under mixed rolling-sliding conditions in the boundary lubrication regime. An adapted in situ interferometry technique was used to monitor the additive-derived reaction layer formation. The properties of the additive-derived reaction layers were studied using surface analysis techniques, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy. A thicker layer was formed when the additive is blended in the nonpolar oil. This observation suggests that base oil polarity determines the transport of additives to the surface, thereby controlling the maximum reaction layer thickness, friction and wear, as well as the morphology of the additive-derived reaction layer. However, the reaction layer chemical composition is not strongly influenced by the base oil polarity. Among the operating conditions, shear was identified as a fundamental parameter for the activation of additives on rubbing steel surfaces and the properties of the derived reaction layer.
The effect of ZDDP on fretting wear was investigated in a ball on flat machine. The results confirm previous work that anti-wear agents may reduce friction and wear in fretting contacts. It was further found that temperature, adsorption time and base oil polarity were all important parameters affecting the ability of ZDDP to protect the surfaces against fretting wear.

Functional additives, particularly extreme pressure and antiwear additives, in formulated oil will compete to adsorb and function in tribological contacts. A low-polarity commercial base oil, poly-α-olefin (PAO), blended with zinc dialkyl dithiophosphates (ZDDP) has been studied. The tribological performance was evaluated using a ball-on-disk test rig under mixed rolling-sliding conditions in the boundary lubrication regime at 90°C. An adapted in situ interferometry technique was used to monitor the additive-derived reaction layer formation. The thickness of the reaction layer evolves with rubbing until reaching a limiting thickness value of approximately 70 nm. The evolution of the topography and mechanical properties of the ZDDP-derived reaction layer with rubbing time were studied using Atomic Force Microscopy. A constant roughening and hardening of the additive-derived layer with rubbing time is observed and related to the different tribological performance of the layer at different rubbing times.
Traditionally rolling contact fatigue observed in bearing field applications was subsurface initiated. However, despite the improvement of steel properties, some factors such as downsizing in bearing design, extreme loading of the bearings as well as demanding application conditions (start up-stop cycles) have led to an increase on the cases of surface damage related to surface initiated fatigue, that comes basically from surface distress. Possible causes leading to surface initiated fatigue are: material and surface properties, marginal lubrication and lubricant chemical composition. Lubricants are formulated products composed of base oil, and an additive package designed for a specific application. Extreme-pressure (EP) and antiwear (AW) additives are chemically active additives, they react with the steel surfaces in contact to form a protective additivederived layer, thus reducing friction and controlling wear. However, certain EP/AW additives that increase the performance of other machine elements, such as gears, can be detrimental for the bearings running in the same lubrication environment. In order to identify the plausible mechanisms that govern the detrimental effect of EP/AW additives on bearing performance, it is necessary to study closely the interactions occurring in the system form by the base oil, the additives present and the steel surface, as well as the influence of operating conditions. The focus of the present work is to identify the parameters affecting the additive-derived layer formation, as it is directly related to the additive reactivity towards the surface, and the tribological properties of the layer, that will determine the tribological performance. Zinc dialkyldithiophosphate (ZDDP), and two low viscosity model oils with different polarity were selected. The influence of base oil polarity on the additive performance was studied in the nanoscale using Atomic Force Microscopy and the tribological performance was evaluated using a ball-on-disc test rig under mixed rolling-sliding conditions in the boundary lubrication regime. An in-situ interferometry technique was used to monitor the additive derived reaction layer formation, and the chemical composition, morphology and nanomechanical properties were studies using X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy, Atomic Force Microscopy and Nanoindentation respectively. It was found that base oil polarity determines the transport of additives to the surface thereby controlling the maximum reaction layer thickness, friction and wear, as well as the morphology and nanomechanical properties of the additive-derived reaction layer. However the reaction layer chemical composition is not determined by the base oil polarity. Among the operating conditions, shear was identified as a fundamental parameter on the activation of additives on rubbing steel surfaces and the properties of the derived reaction layer.
ZDDP blended in two base oils with different polarities were tested in mixed rolling-sliding conditions. The results showed significant differences in friction and wear when the additive is blended in the different oils. When ZDDP is blended in a non-polar base oil, the additive molecules have a better access to the steel surface, leading to higher adsorption rates than when ZDDP is blended in a polar oil, resulting in the formation of thicker ZDDP-derived reaction layers and influencing tribological performance. These results indicate the importance of base oil polarity on the ability of ZDDP to reach the surface and the influence on tribological performance.

FIRST Asia Institute of Technology and Humanities (Faith) was among the 333 schools allowed by the Department of Education (DepEd) to pioneer senior high school (SHS), said Juan P. Lozano, managing director.
Rosalind M. Landicho, Faith’s director for marketing and corporate communications, said Fidelis Senior High School was offering the Technical Vocational track, with the Information Technology strand, to take advantage of the school’s location in Tanauan City in Batangas, a high growth area with at least four industrial zones.
Fidelis started offering Grade 11 in 2014-2015 with 26 students. “Most of the students come from families who cannot afford college education, but still hope to pursue their studies and work right after graduation. Under K-12, a senior high school graduate is already legally employable,” Landicho said.
Fidelis combines scholarships with a study-now-pay-later program to allow more students to enroll. Graduates start paying their school fees through salary deduction after they get employed. Landicho said job placement after SHS was almost guaranteed because of Fidelis’ partnership with global companies like Chiyoda Philippines Manufacturing Corp and Fastech Synergy Philippines.
Lozano said, this year, Faith will be accepting students from public schools, who would qualify for subsidies under the Senior High School Voucher Program.
Landicho said, contrary to the general assumption, Faith would have college freshmen students consisting of high school graduates of 2015 and earlier. But some General Education teachers would be teaching specialized subjects in SHS while the “core or general subjects will be taught by the basic education teachers, plus new hires,” she said.
Also offering SHS is the Lyceum of the Philippines University-Manila, the only LPU campus without a high school. Like La Salle and Ateneo, the SHS faculty would also consist of “imports” from college.
LPU-Manila president Roberto Laurel said the university would keep all its regular faculty members and, during the lean years, send to graduate schools those who needed to get their master’s, or even post-graduate, degrees. LPU is currently screening professors who may qualify to teach Grade 11. The teachers will undergo special training on teaching methodology for SHS.
San Beda College Mendiola (Manila), which phased out its basic education unit several years ago, will be offering Grades 11 and 12 starting this school year. For students wanting to enroll at SBC, “this will serve as their entry to the college,” said vice dean Joffre Alajar of the College of Accountancy and Business.
Alajar said the Benedictine fathers who run San Beda did not want to retrench faculty members. “Some affected teachers opted to avail of early retirement packages while others are considering senior high school teaching jobs, even with lower pay,” he said.
Offering SHS would reduce the impact of K-12 on faculty. It would also make use of existing facilities and resources that would otherwise be idle because of the few freshman enrollees, he said.
SHS, Alajar said, would be handled by both basic education teachers and college faculty. San Beda is offering the Academic Track.
Since Miriam College was already offering basic education, from preschool to high school and “is not fully dependent on the college for income,” president Rosario Lapus said. Inquirer story that she hoped the school would not be heavily burdened by the temporary absence of freshmen.
“It’s a matter of coming up with a sufficient number of strategies that will allow us to survive and do well during those lean years,” Lapus said.
Like other higher education institutions, Miriam will also have college faculty members teaching SHS classes. Dr. Edison Fermin, Miriam high school principal, said some SHS subjects would serve as introductory to college degree programs and would be credited in tertiary courses. SHS is offering the Academic Track to prepare students for college, specifically in Miriam.
Lapus said Miriam was considering various continuing education and certificate programs to make up for the loss of college freshmen income and also to keep busy faculty members, who would have little or nothing to do. She said they might also develop programs for nontraditional students.
Adamson University adopted DepEd’s K-12 program starting in 2011. It will start offering SHS-Academic Track starting this year.
The University of the Philippines system, while not completely dependent on school fees, was also expecting a drop in freshmen enrollees in the next two years, at least.
The removal of some college subjects, he said, led to expectations that some undergraduate programs could be completed in less than four years.
Estremera said UP academic departments were taking advantage of the drop in enrollment to pursue faculty development, scheduling graduate and post-graduate studies for teachers. Teaching loads were also being reviewed.
Estremera said, as far as he knew, UP had a fund to support doctoral studies that could be made available by the university president. Internal and external scholarships could also be offered, such as those from the Commission on Higher Education (CHEd), he said.
The University of Makati (UMak), which is funded primarily by the city government, has also opened SHS. In fact, on DepEd’s request, UMak, which did not have a basic education program, piloted SHS in 2012-2013, drawing almost 5,000 students to its Grade 11, of which 4,000 were local residents.
Some of the enrollees had actually graduated from high school. But, unable to go to college and with little prospect for employment, they decided to take the additional two years of free schooling.
UMak president Tomas Lopez said the additional two years would be an opportunity to raise competencies for immediate employment or for college education. The university offers the four main SHS tracks-Academic (college preparatory), Technical-Vocational, Sports and Arts, and Needs of a Locality/Community.
De La Salle University president Br. Raymundo Belardo Suplido, FSC, said CHEd was preparing a budget to assist schools that would suffer from a drop in enrollment to cushion the impact of K-12 on the faculty, through educational assistance for advance studies or immersion in industries.
Resources and facility sharing was also being considered—bigger institutions helping smaller schools. Some full-time DLSU faculty members, for instance, might be seconded to other schools, Suplido said.
He said DepEd, Department of Labor and Employment and the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (Tesda), in a joint memorandum, were also allowing transition contracts, provided affected faculty members and the union, if there was one, agreed.
College teachers, who would be asked to handle SHS subjects, have five years to pass the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET) administered by the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) if they decide to remain in the basic education level.
Dr. Peter P. Laurel, president of LPU-Batangas and former president of the Philippine Association of Colleges and Universities, said private schools should also consider offering short-term courses under the jurisdiction of Tesda.
The government is helping private schools boost enrollment for their SHS by expanding the voucher program that grants subsidy to public school students enrolling in private institutions.
As for teachers, CHEd is offering scholarships for graduate studies and professional advancement.
“Higher education employees can go on full-time study to earn master’s or doctorate degrees …,” CHEd said.
The commission said only 50 percent of Philippine higher education faculty members had graduate degrees. Vietnam and Malaysia, to name just two members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, had 60 percent and 69 percent, respectively.Higher education institutions could also avail of grants to upgrade their programs.
In coordination with DepEd and in partnership with Philippine Normal University, CHEd is also “undertaking a SHS support project to ensure high quality of teaching.” The program will develop teaching guides that will be made available in print and online for SHS teachers in both private and public schools. They will contain teaching strategies, guide questions and curated references.
Teacher training will retool modules to equip SHS teachers with the skills to provide students with college readiness and independent thinking skills, prepare learners for higher education and lifelong learning.

Sound recording has developed in fairly close parallel with popular music in the last six decades or so. And as such, it’s no coincidence that the majority of information about recording refers to rock and pop projects. When you think about it, this scope of sound sources – vocals, guitars, keyboards/pianos, drums – is very narrow.
When listening to lush, orchestral recordings, it’s easy to imagine that these happen in extremely high-priced recording studios, with a mind-boggling array of equipment and no shortage of space. Often, that is exactly the scenario.
There is an increasing call, however, to track cinematic strings in a more budget-conscious way, where space and the requisite facilities may be in short supply. Knowing your options when recording smaller orchestral ensembles or solo instruments can give you the power to add real colour to your productions.
You don’t need a cathedral-sized room for recording orchestral instruments – you can attain the right amount of lusciousness and space with smart techniques and a lateral approach.
Lumping two massive instrumental categories such as woodwind and brass together is essentially unfair, but they do have similarities which can help when considering miking techniques.
The unacquainted may be excused for thinking that the sound comes from the bell of the instruments. And while it is loud there, it definitely won’t offer up the complete picture of the instrument’s character. The sound of a woodwind or brass instrument blooms at some distance from the source, so if the space permits, best to back off.
Microphone choices for these kind of instruments are many and varied, but for the louder and more aggressive instruments in these families (think trumpet and saxophones) a ribbon mic like the Royer R121 is uniquely placed to capture the dynamic variations and frequency spectrums that these instruments offer up. Ribbons smooth out the tops in a way that most condensers and dynamics don’t, thus acting as a counterweight for the bitey attacks that are prevalent in the horn section.
Orchestral strings have incredibly wide dynamic ranges, and huge tonal variations available to them, depending on the technique employed. Therefore, microphones that are capable of enhancing the musicality of a sound source should be the go to for strings. Ribbons again are suitable for this task, but the darkness of their frequency response may not be apt to represent the brilliant upper registers – of the violin especially.
Large diaphragm condensers like the Neumann M 147 eat up this high end detail with ease. This flavour of mic is also a favourite on vocals and it’s no surprise – they are best at presenting complex sonic envelopes and frequencies responses with realism and nuance.
Not all large diaphragm condensers are created equal, however, so beware. Lower quality models bump up the top end in an unnatural way, which can inadvertently boost unwanted nasal qualities in orchestral strings.
The position of microphones will largely depend on space available and equipment at your disposal. If you have a small space in which to work, consider the possibility of a simple stereo pair using the XY or ORTF configurations. Close-miking orchestral instruments is often not desirable – remember that these instruments are made from natural materials and designed to fully bloom in a chamber or concert hall, not three inches away from the body of the instrument.
If you’re working with musicians that have trained in an orchestra or small ensemble, they will also be attuned to balancing their volumes in relation to the other players in the group. A less-is-more approach to miking will help you to capitalise on the group’s ability to mix their own sound in as natural a way as possible.
Close-miking is possible of course, and results can be fantastic. Much consideration should be given to placement in this scenario though. Manipulating axis’ and polar patterns can be incredibly effective in unlocking tonal possibilities, and should be explored thoroughly.
Instruments with agile dynamics and powerful volume output – like the aforementioned horn section – can be tamed with off-axis approaches. And if you have the space, a blend between close miking and stereo pair options can provide a deep palette from which to pull sounds in the mix.
It’s not necessarily the space and resources that make the difference in capturing orchestral instrumental performances – just a slight change in approach. Those used to pulling tones for a rock band may be used to using many mics at close proximity; but to get the best out of horn section or string quartet, less mics with more ambience might be the more tasteful method.
In any case, exploring your microphone locker with fresh ears, and being patient with placement and technique will benefit all of your sessions.

Before I talk about my driving experience I want to talk about the teams. Running a race team at all, never mind at the level we are competing with not one but TWO SCCA PRO level series is a feat in itself, and to have the solid foundation that I do in the ALARA Racing team and my friends at GTP really makes getting into the car and going fast worlds easier. I want to thank Glenn and Mike at GTP for the wonderful year/s that they have given me since I started racing in the F2000 Championship Series. They have given me an impossibly confident situation for the entirety of our relationship.
Mahopac, NY – Tim Paul put in a recovery drive on the Streets of Houston in the SCCA Pro Racing MX-5 Cup, on Sunday, June 29, charging through the field from a low of 13th place to finish a season-best fourth in a hot and humid race with a very-wounded ALARA Racing CellMark Paper No. 6.
Skipping over Paul’s F2000 VIR weekend in June, which ended abruptly with a car problem during testing, the Screaming Monkey Racing CellMark Paper team hoped to turn their luck around for a hot summer weekend in Texas.

If you are planning to save the environment by going green, then the solar panels are the best solution for you. Ensure that you have researched thoroughly on different solar panels that are available in the market to avoid future surprises when you are using them. Note that the solar panels are easy to use source of power, and they do not require specialized skills to install and to use in different applications. They are made of by using the photovoltaic cells which are encapsulated in a glass like materials. The cells absorb the rays from the sun and then convert it into direct current. You can opt to use the solar energy directly from the solar panel where it is turned to run your different devices, or you can opt to store the energy collected in a battery.
When you buy the solar water heater, you will notice that they use the same principle, but instead of converting the UV rays into electricity, the energy is used to heat up water. The solar water heater can warm the water fast in large quantities as it uses a series of vacuum tubes, heat conducting liquid and storage tanks. Many people have embraced this great invention as it help to save on money that could have been used to cater for the electricity bills. It is advisable to purchase and connect as many solar panels as possible to allow you to harvest enough solar energy rather than using one solar panel to convert solar energy into usable energy. Having a complete system of a power source is advanced by having many panels on your roof connected to gather enough solar energy.
It is advisable to purchase many cells that are meant to store the solar energy. If your budget is good, and you can decide to use the lithium batteries which are meant to store the solar energy. The car batteries when connected can make up a good solar storage area. If you are looking for durability and potency, the car batteries are the best in the market as they are rechargeable for many years without losing their functionality.
It is advisable to have a power grid when you are using the solar energy through the solar panels as they have several advantages to the user. Two outstanding benefits of using the power grid is that you can sell the excess electrical energy that you collect and earn some money and you can access the electricity from the utility provider when the solar energy is not enough.

The term may be new to you but you’re probably already familiar with labour market information. If you’ve heard a news item about who is hiring or downsizing or talked with friends about the industries they work in, you’ve encountered labour market information.
What information about the labour market do you need?
Demographics are the characteristics of a population, such as average age, population size and projected growth. For example, one influence of the aging population of baby boomers on the labour market will be an increased need for services for seniors.
Technological change means an increasing number of occupations require basic computer skills. One result of this is that no matter what occupation you choose, computer skills will likely be an asset.
Globalization means that companies can operate all over the world and around the clock. One labour market outcome of globalization is the growth in the development of call centres.
Local, provincial and national economic situations influence the ups and downs of the labour market, including the strength of specific industries such as oil and gas, and variations in the overall employment rate.
Industry or sector activity is the change in growth and job outlook in Alberta’s 19 major industries.
Labour market trends describe the combined effects of the influences in this list. One example of a trend is the growing diversification of Alberta’s economy.
Key occupational needs and requirements can change as a result of labour market trends. To learn about the educational requirements, duties, working conditions and salary expectations of over 550 occupations, check out OCCinfo.
How can labour market information help you?
choosing an occupation. If you’re going to spend time and money preparing for an occupation, it’s worthwhile to do some labour market research about it before you make a commitment. What is a typical day on the job like? How good are the employment prospects? What is the average salary range?
identifying training and education programs. What credentials are employers looking for? Which schools offer the programs you’re interested in? Labour market information will help you make a wise choice.
tapping into the hidden job market. Labour market information can help you access the 80% of jobs that aren’t advertised. For example, if you learn that a specific industry is expected to grow in the near future, you can focus your job search on employers in that industry.
Armed with labour market information, you’ll be better equipped to make effective choices about work opportunities and career directions. No one can predict the future but labour market information can help you prepare to succeed, whatever it brings.

(Nature) – Over the past decade, the Supreme Court has used a series of patent cases to clarify what the USPTO should consider patentable. Natural phenomena and abstract ideas, for example, are not patentable, according to section 101 of the US patent code, and the court has attempted to distinguish between these categories and true inventions. Two of those Supreme Court cases touched directly on the biomedical industry. In 2012, the Mayo Collaborative Services v. Prometheus Laboratories, Inc. decision struck down two patents on medical diagnostics, and in the 2013 Association for Molecular Pathology v. Myriad Genetics ruling, the court threw out patents on gene sequences used to assess cancer risk. In the wake of those decisions, many lawyers predicted that patents on inventions that are important to personalized medicine — particularly, diagnostic tests that could match individuals to a particular therapy — would be hard to come by, potentially driving away investors.

Will first-time candidate Mikie Sherrill flip this district for the Democrats as they try to retake the House?
New Jersey’s 11th Congressional District race has drawn national attention and in its final days it’s still inhaling huge sums of cash, generating television ad spots, and provoking general election anxiety.
Democrat Mikie Sherrill, a former Navy helicopter pilot and federal prosecutor, has pulled slightly ahead of Republican Assemblyman and lawyer Jay Webber in a district that has been reliably Republican since the mid-1980s. The retirement of 12-term Republican, Rodney Frelinghuysen created a vacuum the Democrats are determined to fill. But the GOP has pulled in some of its most notable names — including President Donald Trump himself — on behalf of Webber.
Indeed, a lot of the money and influence surging into the state is coming from the outside. As NJ Spotlight’s Colleen O’Dea reported, the Congressional Leadership Fund, aligned with current GOP House Speaker Paul Ryan who also has taken to the campaign trail for Webber, has spent more than $4.5 million in the state. That’s the most from an outside group in New Jersey. However, it is notable that the CLF has not contributed financially to the District 11 race. Outside spending for Webber is largely coming from the conservative Heritage Action for America PAC. Nevertheless, the Democrats have been dominating the fundraising portion of the battle in this district. The biggest outside spenders in the district were the Independence USA PAC, the House Majority PAC, and With Honor Fund all in support of Sherrill.
According to Federal Election Commission reports, Sherrill has raised $7,654,107 and has $1,730,518 cash on hand while Webber has raised $1,388,799 and has only $113,876 on hand. In fact, Sherrill has raised the most money of any New Jersey House candidate this year and has made her way into 14th place in the nation among all House candidates for fundraising. Even as the days ticked down, the money continued to pour in: $632,000 of Sherrill’s total was raised between October 1 and October 17.
But despite far outraising Webber, Sherrill has not managed to put significant distance between herself and her opponent.
The most recent Monmouth University Poll shows little change since June: Sherrill holds a 48 percent to 44 percent lead over Webber among likely voters, with six percent undecided and 1 percent supporting another candidate. A New York Times/ Siena College poll also has Sherrill ahead, 49 percent to 38 percent.
FiveThirtyEight gives the Democrat a five in six chance of taking the seat with an expected turnout of 284,000 out of an estimated 550,000 eligible voters; that would represent a turnout of 51.6 percent. But turnout in this district, especially during midterms, historically has been low. Data collected by the Center for Government Services at Rutgers shows that in 2014, only 37 percent of registered voters in the district voted. This year however, pollsters expect a surge of voters motivated less by support for the policy positions of their preferred candidate, and more by abhorrence for the opposing candidate.
Residents of the 11th district have been bombarded with ads for and against both candidates and those are only expected to ramp up over the weekend before Tuesday’s election.
Michael Bloomberg, the former Republican mayor of New York City, donated $1.87 million through the Independence USA PAC for ad buys in support of Sherrill to run from Saturday up until election day. The Democrats’ House Majority PAC has also been running a series of ads depicting Webber as a “caveman” for his votes against the equal pay bill in the state Legislature and his support for the federal GOP tax bill.
On the whole, Sherrill’s ads emphasize her military service and hit opponent Webber on his voting record. In addition to the equal pay and tax bills, they home in on the Republican’s votes against prohibiting gay conversion therapy for teenagers and his pro-life stance.
Webber’s ads focus on his role as a father and husband and tag his opponent with the nickname “Montclair Mikie” — a nod to her previous residency in the part of the liberal town located in the 10th Congressional District. She has since moved into the 11th District section. Ads like “Mikie Sherrill — A Pelosi Democrat” highlight Webber’s attempts to link Sherrill to Democratic Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Sen. Bob Menendez.
This race has not been without controversy.
During the same week that pipe bombs were mailed to prominent Democratic politicians and CNN offices in New York City, an envelope containing a threatening letter against Webber and his seven children along with a cut-up “Webber for Congress” sign was sent to the Republican’s office. Both candidates denounced the threatening message, but Webber raised eyebrows by using the event as a catalyst for soliciting donations.
Ultimately, despite national attention, the outcome of this race is going to come down to whichever candidate can get their base to the polls on Tuesday.

Members of the Combined Joint Task Force-Horn of Africa Explosive Ordnance Disposal (CJTF-HOA EOD) team continued their work with their French counterparts by clearing parts of the Djiboutian Range Complex and disposing of unexploded ordnance (UXO) left behind by past training missions, Nov. 6, 2017.
While the objective of the teams is to provide safer pathways for future training missions as well as for Djiboutians who accidentally travel through the cordoned area, the team members also honed skills needed in the event they would get called out to detonate UXO in unfamiliar areas. Missions like this one provide unique opportunities for members of the CJTF-HOA EOD team to strengthen bonds with their French partners.
“I had said last year that I would suggest partnering with American forces again, and so I am glad we are here working together,” said the officer in charge of the French EOD team on site.
Starting in a side-by-side line, each team worked at a slow and steady pace as they walked across their cordoned area of the complex, searching for anything concerning. Ordnance can be smaller than a baseball, making the search on the rocky desert ground a tedious process.
Safety was a common thread that linked the leaders of both teams not only as they worked to clear the range, but also on any mission like this. As UXO were identified in the field, they were either rendered safe or disposed of by detonation.
Render-safe procedures are applied to the ordnance to prepare it for detonation. A call on the radio confirms that all members from both teams are accounted for and away from the blast area.
“Fire in the hole! Fire in the hole! Fire in the hole!” is followed by an explosion, and a cloud of smoke confirms the safe disposal of the ordnance.
Because the teams are thorough, the process of sweeping for and detonating UXO is time-consuming, and they will need to return to the range to complete the mission.
The partnership between the American and French EOD teams in Djibouti is something both parties are excited to continue.

When it comes to money and finance fear seems to be an ever-present actor on the stage we call financial security. Why is that? Let’s first examine what fear is. Webster defines fear as: an unpleasant often strong emotion caused by anticipation or awareness of danger. Let’s break this down. First, let’s consider the word danger. What is dangerous about money? Without waxing too philosophical, when I think of money I think of power. Power to do good and power to do not so good. The danger is that money gives us the power to carry out poor decisions. These decisions can range from the relatively insignificant to the permanently damaging. Anyone who has bought an item that later makes it to the “Worst products bought online” list knows what I’m talking about.
When fear rears its ugly head in your finances you have two choices: face it or run away. Fear triggers a stress response that starts a chain reaction varying from person to person. For some, feelings of panic can sweep over them. Others may simply feel butterflies in their stomach. Do these feelings sound familiar when it’s time to file taxes? Do these anxious feelings crop up when it’s time to look over your spending habits?
The good news is that you have a choice when your mind believes you are threatened in some way. You can choose to face your fear. Facing any fear takes courage and determination and in the realm of finance this can be daunting because of the influence money has in our lives. I would like to share three steps to start on the journey facing money fear.
The first and most important step is to understand where you are. If you don’t, it’s like trying to get directions on google maps without entering the place of origin. Most of the time it’s not as bad as you think. But even when it is there is something very empowering about knowing what the score of the game is. Practically speaking there are several different methods to find out where you are. You can download an app like the one offered by mint.com and enter use it to keep track of your accounts. You can also use your bank’s app or website. All the large banks and some smaller ones have very useful tools that do a good job of tracking expenses and categorizing them. Alternatively, you can fill out a spreadsheet or take a piece of paper and just write it all down. The key is to take the first step. For one month keep track of every single cent that is spent and keep track of every single cent that is earned. You will most likely be surprised.
The second step is to know where you are going. If we continue with the google maps analogy this is where you enter a destination. For example, if the goal is to free yourself from debt you would clearly and succinctly describe what that means to you. You would answer questions such as: What does freedom from debt look like? What would freedom from debt allow me to do?
The third and final step is to know how to get to where you are going. This is where you determine the process or strategy to achieve your goal. In the debt example, this could mean paying off the highest interest loans or credit cards first. Another strategy is to pay off the smallest loans or credit cards first. This step requires some basic analysis but common sense is usually the best guide. This is a very individual step and understanding the pros and cons of different strategies applied to your situation will help.
Fearing finance does not have to stifle our progress on the road to success. Stay positive and work the process. It’s important to keep in mind that when we involve money we usually have to deal with emotion. But fear not…this is one area that you have control over.

We have been busy painting and prepping all hours of the day and night getting ready for the Junk in the Trunk Vintage Market next week in LA...and a TV segment ready for Fresh Living this Friday! Life is always and adventure...right? So I am a little behind getting barn quilt patterns ready for three upcoming classes that start right after the LA show.

The second was a request from a sweet customer who is taking a class and wanted to paint one of the most pinned barn quilts of all time...my Star Spangled Barn Quilt. It was one that I did for Fresh Living almost two years ago and is a timeless barn quilt.
Both patterns can be found in The Shop and of course they ship the same day you order them! If you are needing barn quilt boards you can find them in the shop under Supplies. If you are interested in taking any of my upcoming classes you can find the locations and dates on the sidebar of my blog! I hope you are enjoying the day...I'm off to keep painting for Junker show.

Nowadays, an automated photo-identification of animals is an emerging research topic due to appearance of large labor-intensive image datasets. The Saimaa ringed seal has a distinctive patterning of dark spots surrounded by light gray rings. This pattern is unique to each seal, enabling the identification of individuals in an image. A common approach is to preprocess an image by performing segmentation to separate an object from its background. In this research, convolutional neural networks (CNN) are used for Saimaa ringed seal segmentation. The main objectives of the research were to survey existing CNN based approaches on semantic image segmentation, implement a CNN-based method, and evaluate the method using the Saimaa ringed seal image database. A method based on CNN was implemented. The method was evaluated using a dataset consisting of 168 images of seals. 75\% of the images were correctly segmented.

Here’s what some of our recent guests have to say about their stay on Saboga.
We really enjoy our stay at Saboga and was our best decision to spent 4 wonderful days at Sonya house. Sonya not only gave us a very welcome reception and explained every detail of how to run her beautiful house but even took her time to move us around the island. Sonya`s house is really beautiful, well maintained and full of little details of good taste and decoration. The main kitchen is a dream's cooker kitchen and the suites has very nice views, beds, baths...The view from the house is really spectacular and its site, near the beach and the island restaurant made it a best choice in Saboga. Thank you Sonya, we will be back soon again.
This is an amazing experience. You are truly on a seclude island. The house is perfect. Jennifer is an amazing host. She gave us a tour of the island, which was truly special. We can’t say enough about the beauty of the island and the house!
My wife and two sons spent March 25-29th at El Remanso on Isla Saboga. We have been to many beach resorts all over the world and were still impressed by the accommodations with a pristine beach, white sand and clear water 50 yards away. We rented the Parrot and Eagle suites for the 4 of us and that was plenty of space. The rooms were clean and extra comfortable all with amazing views of the sunset through the palm trees. The water was plentiful and clean for drinking. Plus the outdoor shower was so refreshing and a great way to get the sand and salt water rinsed off. What really made the stay extra wonderful were our host Jennifer and Lee who made sure that we had everything we needed without being intrusive. Jennifer drove us all over the Island in an ATV and was a wealth of information about things to do and what to see. We especially loved the trip to Playa Larga and seeing the grandfather tree. Really the natural setting was the highlight of El Remanso; it is sited amongst tall trees with plantings of fruit and flowers all around. Every day we watched the birds and butterflies from the deck and swam in the clear, warm water of a mostly deserted beach. Just what we were looking for. Although there is a restaurant just down the beach, be sure to bring food from the mainland. The kitchen in Green Parrott is well stocked for cooking.
Everything about this gorgeous B&B on the remote island of Saboga exceeded our expectations. Our accommodations were spacious, immaculately clean, beautifully furnished and tastefully decorated. It's built into the side of a hill with steps right down to the beach with stunning views. From the decks (and your room), you've got spectacular views over the Pacific. It's just a short walk to the island's only restaurant & beach club. In fact Saboga's only village and all of its beaches are within easy walking distance from this location. Our hosts, Lee & Jennifer, were remarkably committed to ensuring we had the best possible Saboga experience. Even before we booked, they offered lots of information to help with our planning. They were very patient...we had lots of logistical questions and they simplified things tremendously. Once we were there, they went out of their way to help us find the best beaches for shelling, the best place to rent a sailboat/paddle board/kayak, you name it. If you're into really getting away from it all and exploring the most remote, pristine beaches you may ever see, Lee & Jennifer will help you have your best-ever vacation here.
We stayed here for three nights this July and had one room in the main house as well as a separate apartment in a different building for our parents. They are in their 80s and had no problem getting around at all. Lee and Jenifer were perfect hosts - before and during our stay - and if it weren't for the small town on the other side of the island, that just wasn't easy to navigate with regards to buying food, it would have been heaven. [We do speak the language and are not shy. But they simply did not have much to buy to begin with. So it is highly recommended you bring at least a little food for your dinners and breakfast!] The beachclub on the "house beach" is excellent, has great food for lunch time and we were mostly by ourselves throughout our stay. Private island feeling with plenty to do and see like whalewatching, picking mangos, going for a drive through the lush island and endless beach walks... We enjoyed ourselves thoroughly and are glad to have made the trip. Since we had our parents with us it might be good to know, that this island (as opposed to Contadora) has a proper pier for the ferry to land and most everything is accessible via walkways without stairs. Thanks again Lee and Jenifer! A real pleasure to meet you!
Unspoilt but comfortable. There are very few places that can boast of that. In Jennifer and Lee's House you have all the facilities of an impressive house few steps away from paradise beaches where rarely you are going to find someone else. The Island is marvellous, the spot unsurpassable, and the attention and hospitality of Jennifer and Lee the BEST! We will definitely become frequents of this place!
El Remanso on Isla Saboga is one of Panama’s best kept secrets! If you are looking for an extremely quiet and secluded place to totally relax in paradise, look no further. Lee and Jennifer will tend to all of your needs on the island, from meeting you at the dock, giving you a tour of the island, making sure you have everything you need, and then leaving you to your vacation but being completely available if you need anything. The facilities are very well-appointed. The beach is literally down the steps from the house. You can choose long daily walks and snorkeling, or just get comfortable in a chair with a good book on the beach all day. There really are no structured activities for you on this island, so come prepared to entertain yourselves, which is exactly what we were looking for! The benefit is that on any given day we could choose from any number of deserted beaches to hang out on. There is only one restaurant that is open for breakfast and lunch so you’ll need to bring your own food for dinners. The kitchens in El Remanso make that very easy. I can’t say enough about how relaxing our stay on Isla Saboga was.
Amo esa casa! Es un sueño! Y dormir con el sonido de las olas es un privilegio La isla es paradisiaca y prácticamente esta desierta, muy romántica para parejas y muy entretenida para familias Teniendo en cuenta que esta casi desierta, cuando vayas a hacer tu bolsa, lleva todo lo que crees que puedes necesitar, incluidas medicinas, es preferible andar un poco cargado de mas. Las playas son muy bonitas y es posible caminar por las rocas en marea baja para ir de una playa a otra, todas son de agua turquesa y arena clara En cuanto a la casa, esta muy bien equipada, no le hace falta nada Lee y Jennifer fueron muy atentos con nosotros en todo momento, nos respondieron siempre muy rápido Volveríamos a ir definitivamente Muchas gracias Lee y Jennifer por hacer nuestro fin de semana familiar tan agradable.
Pasar unos días en El Remanso con Jennifer & Lee Scott es incomparable. El lugar tiene todos los detalles que necesitas para disfrutar del paraíso que lo rodea. Una playa de arena blanca hermosa a solo unos pasos, agua cristalina y mucha diversidad en la fauna y flora. Ni que hablar si te gusta snorkelear, no te vas a arrepentir. Hemos ido con mi mujer en reiteradas oportunidades y en distintas estaciones a lo largo del año y siempre la hemos pasado de maravilla. Ultra super recomendable.
El Remanso is definitely what I was searching for: relaxing, disconnection from the rush of the city (although it has a very good and useful - for some quick work if you need it - wi-fi connection) and contact with nature. The room was literally under the trees and with an incredible view for the tiny charming beautiful beach (almost private, once to get there from the regular place where the few tourists come, there´s some rocks barrier). Strongly recommend!
Jennifer and Lee were very kind and helpful from the moment I made the reservation until the moment we left. The place is like the photos, clean, cozy and organized. Everything was perfect!
We had a great stay and really enjoyed the island. I would highly recommend Saboga for your next trip!
What a fantastic holiday we had! The most amazing place to relax and enjoy beaches all to yourself! Its a place for people who don’t like crowds and love nature and being outside. Our room was fantastic right off the beach with a full kitchen. We will be back as soon as we can!!! Thank you so much jennifer and lee for sharing your little slice of heaven with us for our holiday!
We stayed in Casa 23. The location was perfect, possibly the nearest spot to the beach one could ask for. The entire island exceeded our expectations. Making it a truly memorable family vacation. I much prefer Saboga to Contadora. Isla Saboga is a more remote and spartan no frills island but made the vacation a whole lot more enjoyable. And hopefully it will remain this way for years to come. Remote Beaches you could walk or Kayak to. Warm crystal clear waters. Then hunting for coconuts, papaya and limes in the small jungles around the island. Please note that you do need to bring food with you. Lee and Jennifer and Sonya the owner of the villa were helpful and great with communications, and made all of this really easy to navigate. Prior to arrival it was arranged for a delivery of fresh local produce. To make it better we purchased fresh caught Dorado from the local fishermen for a very reasonable price. The local shops are a little unpredictable in what they carry. Nonetheless we managed to purchase the basics from them. Potatoes, cooking oil, plantains, rice, cookies and sodas. But do be aware it varies from day to day whats in stock. We are a family of 4. The home was plenty big enough, comfy beds, an excellently equipped kitchen and bbq. Wifi and cable TV. So was everything and more than we needed. Overall we loved the island and our place and will certainly consider going again.
Superb house, very comfortable and quiet... Private access to the beautiful and almost private beach. We felt we were the new « robinsons » Lee and Jennifer are just two lovely people.
For nature lover,best place I have ever been!
For nature lover,best place I have ever been! Great location, peaceful, quiet, with it's own (spectacular) private beach. An entire month went by very fast...and the hosts, Jennifer and Lee, have been very helpful and accommodating.

From the makers of Chemi-pure. ChemiClean 2g treats up to 300 gallons. It helps clean stains from red, black, blue-green, and methane (bubble) producing cyanobacteria in marine aquariums. It is completely safe for all fish, corals, invertebrates, and nitrifying bacteria in reef systems. It's simple, quick and easy to use. Chemiclean works within 48 hours oxidizing trapped organic sludge and promotes an ideal enzyme balance. ChemiClean will clean stains from red cyanobacteria in aquariums. Aquarium oxygen levels MUST be increased using heavy aeration or large air stone. Turn off UV sterilizer, ozonizer, and remove Chemi-pure, or carbon during treatment. Continue using protein skimmer, although skimmer may require adjustment to prevent excessive overflow. Maintain normal water flow using pumps and power heads. For every ten (10) gallons of aquarium water, dissolve one level scoop (included) of ChemiClean into one cup of water removed from the aquarium. Pour solution with dissolved ChemiClean back into aquarium, dispersing evenly. Successful treatment may take up to 48 hours. After the 48 hour treatment period, perform a 20% water change. Turn on UV sterilizer, ozonizer, and replace Chemi-pure or carbon. Repeat as necessary. ChemiClean can be used monthly as a regular component of aquarium maintenance.

Tucson has built four-mile-long streetcar tracks that will run between the University of Arizona campus and downtown. Only two of the eight cars that will be used to ferry passengers every 10 minutes have arrived, and operations will not start until next year.
But local business leaders say the streetcar has already revived the center of this sprawling, artsy city of 524,000. Roughly 150 businesses have opened their doors along the route in the last five years, and the once-dormant area is in the middle of a $230 million construction boom, according to the Downtown Tucson Partnership. The group estimates that 2,000 jobs have been created or relocated to the area.
“The fact that Tucson could reinvent itself in the middle of the worst recession to hit the state since 1928 is astonishing,” said Michael Keith, CEO of the downtown group.
It is a common theme among city planners from Fort Lauderdale, Fla., to Seattle, as younger workers flock to areas where cars are not needed for daily living. Cities as big as Los Angeles and as small as Norfolk, Va., are turning to streetcars and light rail lines to tie together neighborhoods, attract businesses and lure residents.
“They help drive development. They help create a sense of place. They help shape your community… and bring a vitality to your community. It’s a combination of all of those factors,” said Art Guzzetti, vice president for policy for the nonprofit American Public Transportation Association, which advocates for public transportation.
Two dozen cities already operate light rail and streetcars. Many are considering expansions, while dozens more are studying proposals to build their own.
In fact, light rail (including streetcars) is by far the fastest-growing mode of transit, carrying 2.5 times as many passengers as they did in 1990, according to the association.
For the first time in 2009, light rail was more popular than commuter rail, which links cities to their suburbs. Buses and heavy rail systems such as subways still dwarf both in terms of passenger trips, however.
Streetcars are generally smaller than other light rail cars. They tend to run for shorter distances and make more stops than light rail. They also operate in local traffic.
The light rail that opened in Phoenix in 2008, for example, travels 20 miles to connect the city to nearby Tempe and Mesa. Tucson’s streetcar, on the other hand, will travel only four miles to connect neighborhoods near the center of the city.
Streetcars certainly have detractors, especially because they are far more expensive than normal bus routes. A single streetcar carriage can cost between $3.5 million and $5 million. The Tucson project is expected to cost $196 million, which will be paid for with local taxes and federal stimulus funds.
Cincinnati voters on Tuesday (Nov. 5) elected anti-streetcar candidate John Cranley as mayor. The mayor-elect made canceling the city’s $133 million plan to connect downtown with the Over-the-Rhine neighborhood a central plank in his platform. Streetcar proponents say halting construction would cost the city about $30 million and mire it in lawsuits.
“We’re going to get out of the streetcar project, which is too expensive,” he told supporters after his election, according to TV station WCPO.
Cincinnati’s streetcar has been a lightning rod for controversy for years. One of Ohio Republican Gov. John Kasich’s first acts in office was to eliminate state funding for the project promised by his Democratic predecessor.
The project still depends on federal money, and canceling it would mean the city would have to send back the federal money it has already spent.
The price tag for the projects — and who picks up the bill — vary from city to city. The federal government can help defray costs with grants. In some areas, tax increases or assessments on businesses along the routes can help fund the improvements.
While streetcars can be more expensive than buses, they also bring greater economic benefits, said Kevin Clark, president of manufacturer United Streetcar. When a city lays down tracks for a streetcar line, he said, it is committing to providing customers to businesses and transportation to residents for decades.
In Tucson, he said, the streetcar is expected to attract more than four times as much economic investment as the project cost. The location is particularly favorable: The university and its 40,000 students are nearby; rents are cheap; and there are enough historical buildings to give it an authentic feel.
United Streetcar, based in Oregon, is building streetcars for Tucson, Portland, Ore., and Washington, D.C. When its first car rolled out of its factory this June, it became the first American company to produce streetcars since the 1950s. Clark said the company relies as much as it can on American suppliers. Three hundred companies in 32 states contribute to the vehicles.
But United Streetcar has fallen behind schedule in providing cars to Tucson and Washington (expecting two more for its five-car fleet), pushing back the date both cities can begin service. Clark said the company underestimated the difficulties of managing its complex supply chain, which led to the delays.
Even with the delays, Tucson officials are excited for the streetcar’s debut, now scheduled for next July.
Shellie Ginn, the streetcar’s project manager with Tucson’s Department of Transportation, said the train would bridge both “mental and physical” divides between neighborhoods.
An interstate highway isolates the Mercado district, a largely empty area west of downtown targeted for development. Railroad tracks separate the Fourth Avenue shopping district and the University of Arizona campus from the heart of downtown.
“The streetcars have been able to obliterate those barriers by providing that direct connectivity between all of these areas,” she said. The university is building student housing closer to downtown along the streetcar line. The train will also connect medical facilities on opposite sides of the route.
In the meantime, restaurants and boutique shops are now opening where tattoo parlors and abandoned storefronts once stood.

RF-35HTC is a non-reinforced, low loss, industry leading thermally conductive laminate. The high 1.84 watts/M*K thermal conductivity is well suited for any high-power application including amplifiers, couplers, dividers, filters etc. RF-35HTC is a ceramic/PTFE composite that is very low in PTFE content. The extremely low loss of 0.0007 at 10 GHz makes RF-35HTC very attractive for any high-power application.
The high thermal conductivity is beneficial for moving localized heat away from transistors, capacitors, conductors, other components, or the dielectric material. In hot environments exposed to oxygen, hydrocarbon (synthetic rubber) based composites are prone to oxidation and higher than expected electrical/thermal losses predicted from modeling. PTFE is attractive at the highest of temperatures because PTFE resists any thermal oxidation.

Master of the Watch: November 17, 2007 - present. When our server's hamster dies, he gets a new one.
Primarily because of the idea of "thought before action", and because they're laid-back.
I enjoyed being a citizen/recruit/soldier, but considered them a step along the path to SM.
I am the System Administrator, so I maintain the forums server. I'm also an op in IRC and help new and not-so-new members there with IRC or general PC problems.
My friend Nick in high school introduced me to the books.
My favorite character has actually changed a few times, as I change and as the characters change. It's been a while since I last read the series, but I think I'm going to have to go with "The disembodied voice of Lews Therin in Rand's head". Nation... Andor I suppose.
I've attended 3 anniversary parties, 3 Dragon*Cons, and a number of smaller local gatherings. It's been fun pretty much every time, because of the people there.
I'll give just about anything a listen, but I tend to not be a fan of country, rap, or bands who seem to think that anger is a substitute for talent.
Boondock Saints, Thank You For Smoking, The Whole Nine Yards... quite a few others, I suppose, but those came to mind.
Hard to say. I suppose flying across half the US to meet random internet people might count, but that's generally turned out rather well for me. Trying to move a desk on top of a car with people walking alongside to steady it probably should have failed spectacularly, but that one turned out well too.
IT Engineer, mapping and monitoring servers for EDS.
Mostly just English. I used to speak a bit of Spanish, but it's mostly gone through lack of practice.
I actually figured out I wanted to do something computer-related pretty early on. I was always the kid who took everything apart, then put it back together again in working order.
I'm 26, and a Computer Science student whose had several detours on the road to a degree, the most recent of which being a full-time industry job. I live in Tulsa, Oklahoma. It's a decent enough place that I don't have a strong desire to get out, but I also don't have much of an attachment to it other than friends here.

Some argue that tourism would not exist if it were not for attractions.
A designated permanent resource which is controlled and managed for the enjoyment, amusement, entertainment, and education of the visiting public.
Destinations are larger areas that include- a number of individual attractions- together with the support services required by tourists.
Many attractions are increasingly developing services such as catering and accommodation on site to increase their income source.
Some support services and facilities are attractions in their own right e.g. restaurants.
As far as activities are concerned,attractions are a resource that providethe raw material on which the activity depends.
Rock climbing in Grampians National Park.
Primary Attractions are those which are the main reason for taking a leisure trip.
Secondary Attractions are those places visited on the way to and from the primary attractions.
There are enormous varieties in the size of the catchment areas from which attractions draw their visitors.
Many attractions are local with most of their visitors coming from within a few kilometres.
Different types of attractions are found in different types of locations, namely Rural, Coastal and Urban.
Most natural attractions, except beaches, are found in rural areas often in relatively isolated areas, as are many historic houses.
Often consciouslylocated next to major roads for easy accessibility to help maximise visitor numbers.
Attractions can be classified according to the size of their site and capacity.
Can vary from very large to small e.g.
Disneyland, Dreamworld, Movieworld, Great Barrier Reef, Grand Canyon.
Casino, Arts Centre, Sydney Opera House.
Observation Deck Rialto Towers, Scienceworks.
The other customer-oriented way to classify attractions would be to look at them in terms of the benefits visitors expect from visiting them.
Attraction: A designated permanent resource which is controlled and managed for the enjoyment, amusement, entertainment, and education of the visiting public.
Certainly not local, and maybe a bit too many visitors a year to call it regional.
While Disneyland resort Paris is recognized as having an international catchment area, Parc Astérix seems to have a national one.
Often consciously located next to major roadsfor easy accessibility to helpmaximise visitor numbers.

“Accustomed to designing and fabricating my own site specific artwork, I felt a wonderful freedom being able to visualize the work of other artists within the space of the library.
The first stage was to establish with the architects which areas could benefit the most from having artist-designed elements. A. jury of architects, artists, art connoisseurs and library personnel assembled to choose among the 40 Bainbridge Island artists who submitted their work and ideas for this project.
Ten artists were chosen to make site specific proposals. After long months of fund raising, we were eventually to see all the proposals come to reality. By the time the expanded library was open, all the artwork had been installed.
My real reward comes when I hear from the library staff and users that the artwork does add a new dimension to their enjoyment of this wonderful building.
I was later approached by the interior designer to create screens for the backs of the computers and designed the Reading Hands Screens. The Friends of Virginia Mudge also asked me to create an outdoor bench in the memory of the long-time librarian and I was happy to install the Bird in Flight bench and keep Virginia's spirit alive at the entrance of a building she would have loved.

Once your are inside the rain won’t bother you at all. If it is pouring grab a cab straight from your hotel to the door as it is about a 10 minute drive away from the heart of Surfers Paradise in Broadbeach.

If you have little ones in tow check out the Drax 4 Kids option.
OK this one might sound a bit out there but you are planning to get wet anyway so the rain shouldn’t bother you right? Just make sure it is not too cold as well as standing soaking wet on the towers in the wind is not that much fun. All the water is heated and the crowds will be well down so it can actually be a really good time to visit. Just check the chance of lightening as this sometimes can affect the operation of some of the bigger rides.
What better way to while away a few hours than getting pampered to within an inch of your life. I’m quite partial to a hot stone massage myself. Groupon has some great discount options available so grab a voucher here before you go.
Located in the Paradise Centre in the heart of Surfers Paradise, Build a Bear is just too damn cute! I really, really wanted to make one but the Hubs talked me out of it.

Dubbed “the UK’s answer to John Legend”, South Londoner Josh Osho is a naturally gifted singer-songwriter with a life-story packed full of the stuff that films are made of.
Born to a half Northern Irish, half Nigerian mother and Nigerian father, Josh Osho has had the life experience of a person twice his age. Following an unconventional and often tempestuous childhood, Josh went from being in and out of home at the age of 16 and dealing drugs from notorious half-way house Ebenezer hotel at 17, to signing a deal with Island Records at 18, finding himself recording in a studio with two members Wu Tang Clan at 19, and releasing his debut album ‘L.I.F.E’ at 20. It may be a universal cliché to say someone has been saved from a darker route in life by music, but when it comes to Josh Osho this really is the case. He is a young man and artist who has come up the hard way and it is there for everyone to hear in his music.
Among those to hear it first was Josh’s musical hero Ghostface Killah – who approached Josh about guesting on his debut EP, ‘Redemption Days’. A few studio sessions later and his counterpart, RZA quickly followed suit, stepping up as the executive producer on Josh’s debut album, ‘L.I.F.E’. Now Josh has gathered more fans among some of music’s finest, such as James Morrison and Wretch 32– all of whom have earmarked Josh as an exceptional talent to watch out for. Other heavyweight Osho promoters include rising star Childish Gambino, (who Josh supported on his recent sold out London shows), Emile Sande and Rizzle Kicks who invited Josh on the road with them for their recent UK tours.
An impressive debut, Osho’s ‘L.I.F.E’ is collection of expertly crafted songs with spiritual integrity and undeniable commercial appeal, underpinned by one of the finest pop/soul voices to come out of the UK in years. Giants is a heartfelt slice of gritty inner soul, while the elegiac ‘SOS’ and the bitter-sweet 'Ebeneezer Hotel' showcase Josh's innate ability to impart life lessons and experiences with a profound mind and a pop sensibility. Other highlights on the album include the beautiful lament ‘Highlight of My Day', the future hit ‘Home for your Birthday’, and the infectious R&B masterclass and forthcoming single, ‘Redemption Days’ featuring Ghostface Killah.
Josh Osho will be releasing debut album ‘L.I.F.E’ through Island Records on 25th June, and single ‘Redemption Days’ (featuring Ghostface Killah) on 17th June 2012. To coincide with the album release Josh Osho will play a headline show at London’s Jazz Cafe on Monday 25th June.

An American Express/Harrison survey of millionaires reported that half ran their own business, with 1/3 having a professional practice or experience working in the corporate field. “The Millionaire Mind” states that the median college GPA for millionaires is 2.9, the average SAT score 1190, and 59% of millionaires attended a state college or university according to AmEx/Harrison. Just under half of all millionaires surveyed held an advanced degree. Getting to the front of the pack with pay can take a combination of school, innovation, who you know and how hard you work.
How Important is it to Attend an Elite School?
College costs are rising at a scary rate, and students have an average of $21,500 in college student loans. Meanwhile, salaries for B.A.s are falling. New data and studies suggest that attending a good program at a less elite school and continuing with a higher degree may be a better investment than putting all your funds toward an elite undergraduate.
The college ranking system by U.S. News and World Report, although the most widely referenced and respected, is also the target of criticism from some independent groups and individuals. “The rankings are a measure of wealth, exclusivity and fame, not quality,” says Kevin Carey, research manager at the nonprofit Education Sector. Carey claims that the rankings inflate the draw of some schools, which brings more applicants, which in turn brings more rejections and the ability to class a school as superior.
Forbes counters the sacred U.S. News rankings with their own list, based on the quality of undergraduate experience and the quality of professors, with no involvement from the colleges in the rankings.
A study by the Brookings institution showed that having a B.A. increased the chances of entering the top-income earning bracket, regardless of whether or not it was from an Ivy League school. Does a top education result in better outcome for life?
Different studies have disputed the myth that elite schools automatically mean better salaries. A well-known paper by Princeton economist Alan Krueger and researcher Stacy Berg Dale at the Andrew W. Mellon foundation compared the salaries of graduates who earned degrees from top tier colleges with those of graduates who were accepted to the same schools, but chose to attend less selective schools. Both groups of graduates ended up with similar income, drawing the conclusion that strong students will excel no matter where they get their degree. The one exception pointed to low-income students who benefited from the social networking they experienced at the most selective colleges.
Another study conducted at the University of Pennsylvania claimed that degrees from elite schools are not as valuable at major corporations as they were twenty-five years ago. The percentage of top executives at Fortune 100 companies with undergraduate degrees from Ivy League schools fell by nearly one-third, from 14% to 10%. The percentage that attended other highly ranked schools (Notre Dame, etc.) fell from 54% to 42%, while public university graduates rose from 32% to 50%.
Vedder claims that when comparing the best private and public undergraduate programs, private schools do not often offer an “unbeatable advantage.” Cooper Union, a free tuition school, has a highly ranked engineering program, which again begs the question of whether it’s worth it to shell out for a big name. Financial advisers recommend that student loan payments not exceed 10% of starting salaries, requiring some decision-making regarding the cost of school and expected starting pay.

The post was about why have the number of active contributors measured by points dropped and do we care. My answer is I would love to see that number drop to zero. Whoa.. you mean no contributions on SCN? Actually what I mean is that points are no longer rewarded period.
Y'all know if you are reading this how points evolved on SCN. The problem is that in order to move the community forward we need to grow beyond points for contributions. We must acknowledge to grow quality contributions we need to eliminate the point motivations.
Now everyone is going to say points are a currency or points motivate people, or without points things would stop happening. Guess the sky won't fall if we got rid of the points and figured out a new system of exchange.
Credits can also be traded or given to other members as needed. You might give a fellow member a credit to view the content that you just created.
Sweet now we have community where you have to participate in some fashion to gain full access. Technically this would be probably hard to implement and keep track of, but this would give the incentive to participate without asking people to achieve any type of artificial goals.
Like my favorite song title "You get what you give" this would truly require all of us to participate in order to get a benefit.
I'm posting this on my personal blog, because honestly this is more of a revolutionary statement, than working within the system.
Over the last few weeks I have read quite a few article surrounding coffee. Some good, some bad and some very ugly. Even though I'm not quite ready yet to discuss where I have been and what the future road looks like, perhaps a coffee discussion is in order.
Ghost of coffee past Honestly I'm only a very recent coffee drinker. My go-to drink in college was always Mountain Dew or Dr. Pepper. As I got older and tried to lose weight I switched over to diet mountain dew or diet dr. pepper. Part of the reason for this is that neither of my parents are coffee drinkers. Honestly I never new how to even make a pot of coffee until say I was in my thirties.
I have been hanging around on SCN for about 4+ years since March of 2005 under my current id. I lurked for about a year or so before then, when I worked for my old employer. The main reason drew me to SCN was the content available. SCN was a radical concept for SAP knowledge sharing that who knows why it took SAP so long to come up with such a site, but lets not digress in that direction. It was useful when I did my first CRM 40 implementation as both the technical and functional lead.

The International Journal of Educational Management (IJEM) provides those interested in the effective management of the educational process with a broad overview of developments and best practice in the field, with particular reference to how new ideas can be applied worldwide. The journal contains material relating to innovation in educational management across the spectrum, the development of educational delivery mechanisms, and the creation of an environment in which the management of resources provides the most efficient outputs achievable on an international basis to allow the sharing of new initiatives.
As the whole structure and philosophy of education goes through a sea-change, and as budgets are cut, educational managers need to keep abreast of new developments in order to maximize their resources and determine the most appropriate management strategy for their institution.
The International Journal of Educational Management addresses the increasingly complex role of the educational manager, offering international perspectives on common problems and providing a forum for the sharing of ideas, information and expertise.
"Leading scholars choose to publish in IJEM. As an example, since 2010 the following thought leaders have contributed to IJEM: Raymond Calabrese; Ron Heck; Wayne Hoy; Stephen Jacobson; Olof Johansson; John McCormick; Reynold Macpherson; Jorunn Moller; Lejf Moos; Daniel Muijs; Bill Mulford; Izhar Oplatka; Petros Pashiardis; and Pat Sammons have chosen IJEM as an outlet for their work.
Most importantly, IJEM covers an expansive array of sectors (higher education, business faculties; schools; TVET; among others) with a breadth of contributors drawn from well beyond the major Anglophone academy. This gives IJEM an international coverage that few journals in the field can claim."
International Journal of Educational Management is available as part of an online subscription to the Emerald Education eJournals Collection. For more information, please email collections@emeraldinsight.com or visit the Emerald Education eJournals Collection page.

When I was a kid I always wanted to help my mom make cakes in the kitchen. She’d give me what I thought were useless jobs like measuring out the flour (I actually like doing that now) and cleaning up the dirty bowls in the sink. Although these are important tasks to complete, I always thought I got the short end of the stick. I wanted MORE. I wanted to crack the eggs, measure out the vanilla, use the beaters and eat off ALL the frosting that smothered them. I desperately wanted to take the cake out of the oven and frost it myself without any adult supervision. I know now that my mom was teaching me valuable lessons of baking all while secretly preventing a major mess in the kitchen (she was tapped into my klutzy nature from an early age).
We spent this Easter weekend at my parent’s house and while it was nice to get out of our routine and enjoy a slower pace of life, what I enjoyed most was making this cake by myself in my mom’s kitchen. That’s right. My mom gave me the responsibility of making this Black & White Angel Food Cake she picked out for dessert on Easter Sunday.
Melting the chocolate, sifting the flour and beating the egg whites in the same bowl I remember using as a kid was almost as good as eating the cake itself. That’s right! No supervision needed. I’m a grownup (ahhhhh!).
A fluffy puffy light chocolate cake smothered with a decadent ganache? Uh huh! I’m so glad my mom picked this cake out and had me make it because I most likely wouldn’t have tried it on my own. And man, would I have missed out.
Egg whites at room temp. Chocolate gets ready….
for grating! Do it over parchment paper cuz it’s easier to measure your final grating results.
Egg whites go in a bowl with cream of tartar & salt. Whip those whites into submission.
Then you add in your sifted flour/sugar combo. Fold it.
Smooth it in an ungreased pan.
Bake it. And then invert it on a rack. This shot is not inverted. I did it right after this.
An inverted cake chilling on a cooling rack doesn’t make for good photos. FACT.
Carefully take the cake out of the pan after it has cooled. A little knifing around the edges and you’ve got this.
Ganache time! Let the chocolate chips melt with heavy cream in a double boiler.
Spread it over your cake. Get messy. Pretend you’re a kid. Eat it of the spoon. No one can see you.
Eat it up. You’re a grownup who makes cakes without adult supervision. You are living your childhood dream.
Combine 1/2 cup of the sugar with the flour and sift them together 4 times. Set aside.
Place the egg whites, salt, and cream of tartar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat on high speed until the eggs form medium-firm peaks, about 1 minute. With the mixer on medium speed, add the remaining 1 1/2 cups of sugar by sprinkling it over the beaten egg whites. Beat on high speed for a few minutes until thick and shiny. Add the vanilla and continue to whisk until very thick, about 1 more minute. Scrape the beaten egg whites into a large bowl. Sift 1/4 of the flour mixture over the egg whites and fold it very carefully into the batter with a rubber spatula. Continue adding the flour in 3 equal additions, sifting and folding until it’s all incorporated. Fold in the grated chocolate.
Pour the batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan, smooth the top, and bake it for 35 to 45 minutes, until it springs back to the touch. Remove the cake from the oven and invert the pan on a cooling rack. When cool, run a thin, flexible knife around the cake to remove it from the pan.
For the chocolate glaze, place the chocolate chips and the heavy cream in a heat-proof bowl over a pan of simmering water and stir until the chocolate melts. Pour the chocolate over the top of the cooled cake to cover the top completely and allow it to drizzle down the sides. If you have chocolate glaze left over, you can serve it on the side with the cake.
it’s afternoon and i’m sitting in the office looking at this glorious picture… it’s killing me!!! it looks too yummy!!!
mmmmm chocolate paradise with angels in cake form!
So pretty! I love this variation instead of serving it with strawberries!
Tracy, since you like black and white things so much, I have just the thing for you! If you get some Black Cocoa Powder, mix it with some melted butter and add to the frosting, then it would really be black and white! Black cocoa powder is amazing. I added some to a ganache and it looked totally black, with no food coloring.
Yes!!! I have some in my pantry right now. I got it from Joy’s ENJOY subscription last month. I can’t wait to dig into it.
The coco and the espresso powder from the ENJOY subscription is delish! Just saying!
I wish I could have a slice, now. I like how it’s a bunch of chocolate dust in the cake!
Angel food cake makes me a happy lady.
This looks like the perfect angel food cake recipe!
AH! I need this in my life. Looks so good.
Looks very fluffy and airy, I’ll totally try it!
But what do you do with all those leftover egg yolks?
Make yourself some citrus curd! Zest, juice, egg yolks, sugar. Refrigerate and eat, or freeze. Or give away as gifts. So good!
Tracy: I have become addicted to your blog…it is great. Your Mom and I were besties in Kingergarten and friends throughout our grammar, high school and college years. She came to my house last week for a grammar school girls lumch and brought the chocolate cake that we all love…the dark chocolate layer cake with dark chocolate frosting. Hmmm…wish I had some now. I did Easter dinner…but we were healthy and did fresh fruit for dessert…well, there was a Red Velvet Gooey Butter Cake, too. I haven’t seen you since you were about 8…but maybe you remember that I made you a blankie when you were as baby…I think it was gingham. Best wishes….
Thank you for your kind note. It’s so nice to have you here. Was the blanket you made me a green gingham with a little lacey trim? If so I LOOOOOOOOOOOOVED that blanket until it was ragged. LOVED IT.
This looks absolutely amazing–and I’m not normally a cake fan! I keep picturing leftover slices fried in butter for the world’s most impractical (but delicious) breakfast.
YUM. can’t believe she let you measure the flour – that stuff is impossible to not get all over the place ;).
this looks so amazing. I adore angel food cake- and this chocolate ganache might be the only thing I can think of that would tear me away from the angels usual companion of strawberries and homemade whipped cream!
This post makes me want to buy a tube pan just so I can try this recipe.
Oh man. My grandmother made my favorite homemade angel food cake for my little brother’s birthday, which was on Saturday, and I swear I ate at least a quarter of it all by myself. I’m a little caked out but that chocolate drizzle sure looks good!
my mom never let me help her bake, she hates it so I’m pretty sure it was just a race to the finish line for her and helping kids was just an obstacle. the first cake I ever baked in my first kitchen was angel food AND I baked it in a tube pan I stole from my mom’s kitchen. this one is so pretty!
I once made a chocolate angel food cake, but angel food cake with chocolate on top? Brilliant!
I know what you mean; cracking the eggs and handling the vanilla were such coveted tasks for me too!
Hey hey hey!! You did a makeover!! Lookin’ goooood 🙂 Also, this cake looks fab.
This looks so light and tasty!
love the new website design!!! this recipe looks amazing..
I LOVE this cake! I thought I recognized it as Ina’s recipe and it sure was 🙂 The ganache on top makes this the best angel food cake EVER!
I had this for dessert tonight and it was SO good!
I think I just wept a little. GIMME DAT.
So is it really called heaving cream by the picture, or is it supposed to be heavy cream? Maybe heaving is something that cream does when it cooks? I don’t know if thats a typo or a fancy cooking method. But the only thing I can think of is a heaving bosom and the mental image is now making me giggle.
HAHAHAAAA. Heavy. Not heaving. My fingers are dumb. I am sorry.

Bernard "Midget" Farrelly, the first world surfing champion, passed away aged 71 after battling cancer for several years.
Farrelly was born in Sydney, in 1944, and began surfing when he was only six years old. In the 1960s, "Midget" dominated the competitive scene. He won the 1962 Makaha International Surfing Championships.
At 5'8'' and 145 pounds, Bernard was the elegant surfer the world needed at the time. In 1964 and 1965, he conquered the Australian National Surfing Titles, and he was a key personality in the launch of the International Surfing Federation.
The regular-footer conquered the inaugural ISF World Surfing Championships, held in 1963 in Manly, Australia. He is the first ever world champion in surfing.
"Midget" Farrelly also contributed to the development of shortboard era, and his companies - Farrelly Surfboards and Surfblanks - did well for decades.
He was one of the few who spoke out publicly against the use of drugs in surfing. As a result, his notoriety and popularity declined drastically. Surf media ignored him, and the surf fans thought his career was over.
But the story of Farrelly's life wouldn't be complete without the endless rivalry with Nat Young, who was once one of his best friends. Between the 1960s and the 1990s, both surfers exchanged tough words, and the animosity between each other was a constant variable.
"Midget was an amazing man who achieved so much - from his surfing achievements being the first Australian to win in Hawaii to his world title in 1964 and near wins in 68 and 70; he was an innovator and pioneer that could handle all conditions," notes Australian surfing legend Barton Lynch.
"He was a pioneer in the surfboard industry too and was responsible for many surfboard design innovations that others may have laid claim to, but Midget was the cutting edge of performance and design."
Bernard "Midget" Farrelly starred in more than a dozen surf movies, including "Pacific Vibrations." He was inducted into the Australian Surfing Hall of Fame in 1986, and in Huntington Beach's Surfers' Hall of Fame in 2007.

AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL INVESTIGATES BIAFRAN HEROES’ DAY MASSACRE: PRESS RELEASE EXPECTED SOON.
Amnesty International has made a move to investigate the human right abuses that took place in Onitsha-Nkpor where the innocent and peaceful people of Biafra gathered to remember their heroes’ who died in 1967 to 1970. The peaceful heroes’ day turned bloody when Nigerian army sporadically shot to kill unarmed Biafrans.
Chima Onyekachi and Ifeanyi Chijioke of Family Writers who followed amnesty international research team to the various mortuaries where the victims were kept can confirm that Amnesty International are working relentlessly to make sure that human right is protected and records put in place for the purpose of justice. Having spent three days walking from hospital to mortuaries and other places the killing of Biafrans occurred. Surprisingly, Anambra state government has ordered for eradication of evidence as tear gas canisters were not seen and eye witnesses afraid to talk. But a good Samaritan eye witnessed spoke extensively on the atrocities committed by Nigerian military.
Our investigation was noted when we got to a mortuary where one of the victim is kept, and autopsy result showing a close range shot. While Nigerian military was claiming unarmed Biafrans were killed out of self defense, the corpse in the morgue was shot at his back. This however is evident that when a shot is given from the back, it implies unprovoked attack was carried out against such victim.
While the self-defense claim cannot hold any water, the Nigerian military also failed to apply caution and professionalism, when one is peacefully expressing his view, it does not warrant lethal confrontations. Speaking to the mortuary attendant, he noted “He was brought here dead, he was shot to die, and you can see the shot came from the back. Probably he bled to death before reaching our hospital. It is a pity that security that ought to protect them is killing them”.
Lying cold on the mortuary ground as we took picture of him is a young man that just finished his traditional marriage in Easter and his white wedding is coming up next three weeks. Tears was strongly held but our heart was heavy, battered to a point that man’s inhumanity to man began to ache our heads. The handler given to us to take us to the places we needed, shared his story “I was the person who carried him to this hospital, he died on our way, he bled to death. We have not seen any of his family members yet, we have only seen his friends who confirmed they know him” he said as we wondered what the state of his wife would be once the story reaches her.
Effort to speak to Amnesty International proved futile as protocols demand, we headed for another mortuary where three members were kept. While mathematically, the number of victims seen and admitted by the military is 14 while scores were nowhere to be found and the military denied keeping their corpses while pictures and videos documented proved otherwise. Estimated 40 were said to have been killed as families all over Biafra are complaining of missing ones.
Amnesty International would officially make press release on the out-come of their investigation in defense of human right which the institution has been in the forefront for years. While there would possibly be a press conference after investigation might have been made public, it is important to appreciate the effort to making the world a better place.
We are waiting for their press release because it has come to the stage where Amnesty International can't pretend to be ignorant bout what's happening to Biafrans in this contraption. Is time Buhari & Buratai including Arase, Obiano & the others are locked up for justice to be done, theses men are evil human lives means nothing them anymore. They'll suffere here on earth & in the hereafter.
Ten unarmed biafra celebrating the heroes day where executed yesterday after the top ranking officers of 302 artillery regiment ordered the lieutenant or captain military doctor in charge of the MRS in the barracks to inject the unarmed biafrans with drug that will slowly kill them but the lieutenant refused but after the day job when he the lieutenant in charge of the hospital (MRS) might have gone home. Then, the adjutant now ordered them to go and kill the ten of them.
They were shot and buried at the barracks burial ground just three minute drive (i.e opposite the army children school one along the main road) by right hand side when entering through the main gate.
A biafra nurse on duty that day leaving in the barracks authoritative told us. She immediately called her brother in diaspora to alert him on the matter.

. If you have a cool idea for Docs and Sheets users, we'd love to publish your code in the add-on store and get it in front of millions of users.
To browse through add-ons for Docs and Sheets, select Get add-ons in the Add-ons menu of any document or spreadsheet. (Add-ons for spreadsheets are only available in the new Google Sheets).
Automatic updates: When you republish an add-on, the update pushes out automatically to all your users. There's no more hounding people to switch to the latest version.
Share functionality without sharing code: Unlike regular Apps Script projects, add-ons don't expose your source code for all to see. That's reassuring both to less-technical users and to the keepers of your codebase's secrets.
Thanks to hard work from our developer partners, the add-ons in the store look and feel just like native features of Google Docs and Sheets. We're providing a couple of new resources to help all developers achieve the same visual quality: a CSS package that applies standard Google styling to typography, buttons, and other form elements, and a UI style guide that provides great guidance on designing a Googley user experience.
Add-ons are available in the new version of Google Sheets as a replacement for the older version's script gallery. If you have a popular script in the old gallery, now's a great time to upgrade it to newer technology.
We can't wait to see the new uses you'll dream up for add-ons, and we're looking forward to your feedback on Google+ and questions on Stack Overflow. Better yet, if you're free at noon Eastern time this Friday, join us live on YouTube for a special add-on-centric episode of Apps Unscripted.
We've just announced Google Docs and Sheets add-ons — new tools created by developers like you that give Google users even more features in their documents and spreadsheets. Joining the launch are more than 60 add-ons that partners have built using Apps Script. Now, we're opening up the platform in a developer-preview phase. If you have a cool idea for Docs and Sheets users, we'd love to publish your code in the add-on store and get it in front of millions of users.

Denton has a lot of festivals. And while Oaktopia is about to cause all sorts of ruckus in a few weeks, we really enjoy the smaller ones. KDB's Redbud Festival and Denton Main Street's Arts and Autos events are two of our favorite Saturday mornings in Denton year in and year out. This Saturday just so happens to be one of those Saturdays. Arts and Autos (no more antiques - more on that later) is taking over the Denton square this Saturday morning from 9am until 3pm. Yes, the downtown Denton square will be cleared of cars to make room for...tons of cars! Check out some of our favorite aspects of the event in the post below so you can make the most of your time there!
Make the most of the fact that the square is shut down to cars for this event. It only happens a couple of times a year. Prance down Elm. Skip up Locust St. You can jaywalk all you want (even though you probably do that already) with no danger of getting a ticket or getting hit by a car. Kinda makes us wonder how nice the square would be if it was shut down to four wheeled vehicles more often.
While Arts and Autos may lean heavily to the auto side, there is plenty of art to be had, as well. One of our favorites is the chalk art contest on Oak St. Stand there for long enough and you will see beautiful squares full of color and all sorts of different art styles take over the small squares of gray sidewalk. Down the street, there's usually an old car strewn about with chalk just begging for an inscription or drawing from you. Don't waste the opportunity to write, "Julie was here," even if your name is Frank.
The event also features live music. The tunes begin at 10am on the square with Gumbo Brothers, followed by The Silvertones, and then ending with The Lowdown playing Soul/Rock/Funk favorites at 1pm.
Go hop in one of the amazing rat rods and pretend that you are Max Rockatansky, the titular figure represented by both Mel Gibson and Tom Hardy in the Mad Max series. Rat rods are the unfinished looking hot rods that are frequently adorned or decorated with all sorts of strange items. Last year, we saw some with skulls and another with a bunch of rope holding pieces of the automobile together. These cars are a piece of art in and of themselves. Go hop in and do your best Immortan Joe impression.
Wonder aloud, "Where did all the antiques go?" This event was known as Art, Antiques and Autos for several years until dropping the "antiques" last year. What antiques were actually present during the event in previous years? We don't even know, but this year sure as hell won't have 'em.
Go inside the Courthouse. We rarely take the opportunity to go inside the beautiful Denton County Courthouse, but Arts and Autos is a great time to do it. There is normally something going on inside that is Arts and Autos related (normally a silent auction), but you can also take the time to check out the Courthouse on the Square Museum while you're at it.
Talk to the owners who have entered cars into the show. You will definitely learn something and even if you don't, you're pretty darned likely to hear a good story. One time an old man even handed me a beer after discussing the intricacies of his car's rehabilitation. Mind you it was 10am and I don't really drink beer, but it was a nice gesture nevertheless.
And finally, one of our favorite things to do during Arts and Autos is to make fun of the people that accidentally left their Jetta parked on the square overnight. In spite of the notifications cars receive downtown, there are always a couple of folks that end up accidentally leaving their cars parked on the square even though they aren't part of the show. Speaking of, if you park on the square Friday evening make sure you are able to move your car before the morning unless you just really wanna show off your Dodge Stratus.

To learn how to evangelise using the gifts and power of the Holy Spirit.
My soul opened up like a flower as it received droplets of spiritual nourishment from our inspired teachers. I learnt that the Gifts of the Holy Spirit empower a person for the benefit of a whole community and not for personal glorification. All I need now is the boldness to step out in faith and be an effective witness of Jesus’ mercy and compassion.
