Lesson A: Electromagnetism
Key facts
- Relevance: AS/A Physics
- Time: 60 minutes

- Teacher guidance, with detailed advice for teachers (PDF)
- Activities, including background information and student sheets (PDF)
Whilst observable phenomena often provide the starting point for new scientific understandings, scientists can use abstract ideas and analogies to develop new theoretical models.
By using an analogy to link a poorly understood area of science with a well understood area of science scientists are able to draw upon old resources to solve new problems.
Scientists need to be able to recognise those analogies that are useful. Useful analogies might link areas of science previously considered as separate. Useful analogies can also generate predictions that can be tested.
The lesson aims to develop students understanding of the role of theoretical models in science. In particular that models:
- can be developed using creative analogies;
- may contain features that do not correspond directly with the real world;
- may provide links with other areas of science;
- generate testable predictions.
This lesson consists of three activities.
Activity A1
This activity is set in the contexts of the electromagnetic 'catapult' effect and the kinetic theory of gases. Working as a whole class, and then in small groups, students place statements from these contexts on a spectrum ranging from 'observable phenomena/objects' to 'abstract ideas'.
Activity A2
Using the resources provided, the teacher presents the main features of Faraday's ideas about magnetic field lines and Maxwell's model of magnetic vortices. Working in pairs students then discuss their responses to a set of questions about these two models before the teacher takes feedback and gives the appropriate responses for each of the questions.
Activity A3
Students use the kinetic theory of gases to make a prediction that there is a minimum temperature.

Louisville was such a fun place to visit. And I can't wait to return. One of my favorite thing to do is explore historical places. And that place for me on this particular trip was Conrad Caldwell House.
The dress in the photo was the dress on the couch below. I was more impressed the frame was original.
A dream place setting to say the least. Monogram is my jam!
Original doorways. Check the intricacy of the woodwork.
Oh the staircase. This is a piece of beauty that you should visit if there is any way. It's worth the trip.
My cookbook fascination went nuts when I came across these little babies!
This painting was commissioned by one of the owners of the house. I wish I had paid better attention but it's amazing and huge!
Again fascinating detailed woodwork.
Stain glassed window if you please!
Well of course it's a wedding dress because I'm obsessed. Lol!
An amazing tour! This historical home is a must see. Check out their website Conrad Caldwell House and if you are in Louisville you should visit. It's worth it!

Well, it's New Year's Eve time to ring in another year. Honestly I do not remember what I was doing last year at this time, probably the something I am doing now sitting in my living room watching TV while my husband slept in our bedroom.
I am hesitant about this next year; actually I am a little scared. You see last year I looked to the new year as new beginning, a bright future with a blank slate. In 2015, I lost a treasured uncle in the spring and then in September I lost my cousin who was in his 40's. So the thought of a new fresh year was enlightening. I graduated with my Master's degree in January and got a position where I could use my education it was very exciting. Shortly after I started my job, my daughter had some issues which turned out to be a bit scary. (these are her issues I will not talk about them here.) I lost another cousin who happened to be the brother of the cousin I had lost just nine months before, he was in his early 40's and died of a drug overdose. His dad my uncle had lost both of his children, it was heartbreaking. A few months later my niece suffered a heart attack and almost lost her life, but she pulled through. She started a fight that would last months. She had her ups and downs but we considered her a miracle.
In July we went on vacation with my sister her family, my brother John and his family, and my mom. My other sister joined us there. It was a wonderful time. I had not seen my brother for 2 years; we laughed, we hugged, we laughed and hugged some more. The best part of the whole vacation was spending time with my brother!
In October we lost my uncle, the father of the two cousins who had just died. But, my world stopped the morning of October 17; my phone rang at 5am. It was my sister calling. I thought about not answering but instead I answered. She told me our dear brother had a heart attack! He was in an ambulance headed to the hospital but it did not look good! All I really remember after that is screaming "O my God!" several times. My husband came into the room and asked what happened and I told him through my tears! Less than an hour later I got the news my dear wonderful, loving brother had died. He was 41! How could this happen!!!! We all headed to Maine to be with my brother's family and my mom. It was awful and great all at the same time. It was awful because he was not there! He was treasured by every one of us! you see in a big family there are aways fights and squabbles between this sibling and that one. But John, did not have that with any of us! All he wanted was for our family to pull together. Be a family, now we were all at his house that he treasured where he wanted us all to come and spend time with him and he was not there!!! It just did and still does not seem fair!!!! After a week were all supposed to return to our normal lives. Normal lives? Our lives will never be normal again, because our brother John, my mom's baby, my sister in law's soul mate, my nephew and nieces dad would not be in our lives any more.
We all suffered through our daily lives without him trying to be normal.
Even my niece who was fighting to get her health back, was devastated about the loss. I talked to her frequently when she was feeling down and defeated to give her hope to continue her fight. Her fight ended on December 23! Two days before Christmas! Another early am phone call this one at 1:30 am was my other niece her sister telling me Sam had passed away! It was 2 days before Christmas!!!!
Now it's New Year's Eve and we are looking at another year. How do I feel about that. I am terrified! My husband has the flu right now with a fever and it scares me to death! I know it is an irrational fear, after all it is just the flu and his fever has broken he is feeling a bit better. But yet, I am still terrified! We have another brother who has the same gene pool as my brother John. I am scared that he will suffer the same fate! Another niece is having problems with her health, I am scared, terrified about that. I am so afraid that we will loose someone else this year.
I am a Christian women, I trust God and know He has a plan for my life. I also know I could not make it through one day of this year and the years to come without Him. Most days I can put aside my fear and rest in His mercy. But then there are days like today, when I am afraid of everything. Days like today when I want to hide in my bed away from the world, these are exactly the days I NEED to get out of bed and move on. The world gets scarier and scarier every day. I realize I can give up and give into the fear or I can move on and live the life the Lord has planned for me no matter what happens. Am I ready for this? I really do not know.......It is a daily journey......
Hopefully tomorrow will not only bring a new year but a new hope. You see I will always as long as I live miss my brother and my niece but I know they are celebrating with Him this year! My brother with our beloved Nana and Pap, his dad and other family members. My niece with her daughter, Heather, she lost years ago, her dad and my brother!

1. Icelandic horses are traditionally named in one of a number of ways:
1.a) Firstly they may be named after the Icelandic Sagas, Norse mythology or gods and goddesses. For example Gyðja (Gydja) meaning Goddess or fairy; or Helgi meaning saint; or Glódis meaning glowing goddess; or Árdis meaning a fairy of good weather or wealth
1.b) Secondly they maybe named after the horses colour, character or ability. For Example Fleygur (that's me!) meaning the flying one – obviously named after my amazing talents; or Rauðblesa meaning chestnut with blaze
1.c) Lastly they may be named for animals, and in particular birds, or the element of nature. For example Fló, meaning flea; or Eldur meaning fire.
And then there are ones that don't meet my nicely organised categories like Flikka – a girls name (there's always one!). They can be named for weapons and artefacts too.
2. Icelandic Horse have other names, that denote their breeding. For example Gyðja fra Kroki (which tells you where she is from in Iceland) and Fleygur from Siamber Wen (because I was born here in the UK)
3. The majority of Icelandic Horse breeders outside Iceland have adopted the same custom for naming horses and this shows the proper respect for this noble breed. It is not considered proper to name the Icelandic horse in a way that is demeaning – and someone should tell My Mate Roger that when he calls me Noddi!
Note: Apologies that all the Icelandic words do not have the correct accents – I don't know how to get the key board to do that!

In my opinion, single-malt Scotch is the most stimulating yet polarizing spirit being made in the world today. Some people will immediately disregard it, while others obsess over it, quite similar to fine wine. Much of this has to do with that initial whiff at the rim of the glass with all of its power and heat up front. Yet it's the patient taster who is rewarded, as the heat recedes and what remains are delicate, wondrous aromas. Sometimes the nose is sweet and heathery, and other times smoky and savory. In the end, much of this has to do with the barrel it's aged in and for how long, but more than anything else, its the producer and process they use from start to finish. What I have searched for is the perfect Scotch, one that treads the fine line between sweet and savory—and at a price which represents a relative value. Great Scotch is not cheap, but it shouldn't be exorbitant either.
Years ago, while attending a portfolio tasting of one of the top names in Scotch whisky, I had the opportunity to chat with their brand Ambassador. It had been a long evening, and tongues were loosened by a night of incredible food and fine spirits. My question to him, after spending the entire night fascinated by his vivid commentaries and stories about all things whisky, was "All loyalties aside, what's the insiders Scotch?" His answer, without skipping a beat, "Highland Park 18-year."
Highland Park isn't a Scotch you'll find at your average bar, nor at the corner store, and although it is more widely known today (having won numerous accolades), it still manages to fly securely under the radar. Hailing from the Orkney Islands of Scotland, Highland Park takes great pride in the over-200 years of experience, which the company has garnered since its creation in 1798. Changes here have been small throughout that time, and only in a pursuit of respecting tradition while improving the quality of their Whisky.
Highland Park is one of the few distilleries to use a traditional malting floor, turning each batch of malt by hand, allowing it to slowly germinate before the peating process, which imparts the true character to their whisky. It's that level—or should I say, depth—obtained through the peat, which sets Highland Park apart from all others. Delicate, sweet and highly aromatic smokiness lingers in the glass yet never overwhelms the senses.
The aging regimen combines both Spanish and American oak, all seasoned with dry Oloroso sherry. The Spanish oak contributes dried fruit and spice, while the American oak adds sweeter vanilla and butterscotch. These lots are then combined for a "harmonization" period to allow all of the aromas and flavors to integrate. Add that perfect hint of peaty smokiness, and Highland Park may be the most "complete" Scotch in the market today.
Highland Park 18-year is a Scotch that every whisky drinker should have in their collection.
Highland Park 18-year — The nose was intense and layered, showing dried apricot, sweet florals, ginger, kiwi, cured meat, and smoke, with contrasting sweetness of butterscotch and honey. On the palate, it was weighty with vivid textures and flavors of dried peach, wood tones, and sweet spice. The finish was long, with lingering smoke, dried apricot, charred meat and hints of olive. A glorious 18-year Scotch. (Morrell)
Article and Tasting Notes by: Eric Guido
I think the Ardbeg was probably my frtaoive of the four, though the Highland Park was a close second. I'm also working my way through a bottle of Tallisker right now that's quite good.

Pilprint wristbands freeot reforms to give scientists more autonomyWhat Forms Of Products May I Use For Unique Photo Gifts?
China will test new reforms that grant more autonomy to science workers in selected research institutes, officials said on Friday.
The pilot program aims to streamline administration of scientific affairs and promote scientific exploration and innovation in basic research, they added.
The country aims to reduce the number of assessments and improve the efficiency of Chinese research by 2020, according to guidelines recently issued by the general offices of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the State Council.
During an executive meeting on Wednesday, the State Council promised to reform the management of scientific research, reduce repetitive paperwork and delegate more power to researchers to make decisions, according to its website.
The reforms will allow researchers to focus on producing quality, innovative work without the hassles of cumbersome permits and paperwork, said Li Meng, vice-minister of the Ministry of Science and Technology.
The main items of the reforms include optimizing budget management, and exempting explorative basic research and science projects that last less than three years from repetitive progress evaluations, Li said.
Researchers will be free to decide how to carry out their projects so long as their research direction and goals stayed the same, Li said. Research institutes will also have full control over their budget, except for equipment purchases.
New methods and criteria are in the pipeline to evaluate the performance of researchers and institutes and reward them accordingly, Li said. Academic titles will not be directly tied to material awards, instead researchers will be rewarded based on the scientific values and socioeconomic impact of their work.
Published papers will still be a key criterion, but now more weight will be placed on the quality of papers rather than their quantity, and the ministry is crafting a new assessment system to reflect this principle, Li said.
Scientists and engineers who are working in key scientific fields or core technologies will get a pay raise. High quality talent and full-time scientists who head projects will receive salaries annually instead of monthly, Li said, adding the change will give key scientists more economic freedom.
Future assessments will be clearer, more balanced and practical with greater emphasis on end results and social impact, Li said. China will also have different treatments when dealing with projects that fail to meet their goals.
Scientists who are doing difficult basic research are encouraged to try new ideas and will be less scrutinized if they fail. However, scientists who commit academic misconduct that leads to a project"s failure will be severely punished, Li said.
These reforms will first be piloted in selected institutes and projects, and successful reforms will be implemented nationwide, Li said. Li did not provide the list of institutes, nor the length of the program.
He Defang, the director of the ministry"s department of policy, regulation and supervision, said the prerequisites for delegating more power to scientists are trust and honesty, which are also key in upholding scientific integrity.
"While we are delegating more power, we are also improving our supervision," he said. "The end goal of the reform is to produce world class scientific achievements that can help our country achieve high quality economic growth."

This is my first ever LA fashion week show I've ever attended where I wasn't on the runway. And I am so overly excited to be invited back and this time on the sidelines as 'press', which makes me sound really fancy. And I'm really not that fancy tb completely h, but having my first fashion week as a blogger rather than being someone's walking mannequin is invigorating.
This was also my first ever concept show I've been to, which was quite the experience. Usually during runway shows it's hard to see the details on garments; there are models that are walking way too fast because the only thing that's on their mind is how fast they have to change into their next look and how they're going to get their bright white silk blouse over their head without smearing their foundation onto their neckline (I've been there). I attended Camelia Skikos for Concept Fashion Week, and since LA fashion week isn't really recognized as a global phenomenon (except Tom Ford having participating this year I think will be a game changer) it isn't always common for you to be familiar with the designers. But on the contrary this wasn't my first time hearing about Camelia Skikos, and after watching her show she is definitely a name you have to know. Camelia has quiet the resume. From working for luxurious brands throughout London to being the head designer of Levi Strauss in San Francisco. Camelia launched her line in 2010, and the following year won San Francisco Fashion Award for Best Women's Wear Designer. Her pieces are geometrically configured; looking at her past collections the best way I could describe it in comparison is that it has a similar modern feel like Alexander Wang if he wasn't voluntarily color blind (I'm aware that not everything Wang is black and white, but it kinda seems like it). For her concept show, models would parade out then stand still for periods of time so you could really examine the apparel. Camelia used a greyscale color palette with a splash of metallics to add some luster. I feel that her pieces are special and extraordinary because they look so clean-cut even if they are asymmetrical. My favorite pieces actually came out of the men's line. It takes a certain brand for me to look at a men's wear garment and think to myself: "I would totally wear that." And coming from a girly girl (I wouldn't usually classify myself as a girly girl but my dad would say that I totally am) like myself, it just shows that these pieces were that amazing.
And one of the best parts about her line is it is all designed and made in this pretty city, Los Angeles. The event was sponsored by this new app called Fyuse, which I then caught myself downloading and talking multiple selfies with my fellow blogger gal pals. I'm so happy I got to be a guest for this show; I can't wait to see it come out this Fall! Check out her collections: www.cameliaskikos.com

and what if I turned the world upside-down
to give myself a chance
for the working world to see the aptitude of my stance?
For words have always been pitted against us
in "either" and "or"
you're either confident and sturdy
or self-doubting, weak, unworthy…
They want you to be self-assured yet they steal your self
Telling you that being soft-spoken and reserved is a malady to be cured.
and you believe, why not, outside the comfort zones they chatter in success
and you focus on exorcising your demons the way you know best:
Medication, procrastination…merely entrails luring and feeding anxiety,
that lurking fear of being seen as offbeat in a chorused society.
In that down-upside no one seems to understand
that the reticence on your lips is not in your hands –
or in your mind which nurses a thousand stories and novelties ready to take their first steps and unfold
But they insist on shutting them down with eyes so coaled.
Offering no warmth of good faith in your fumbling fervour,
Eyes of pitying disapproval pushing you further
To withdraw, resent and smother
Your optimism, sense of direction and tacit conviction –
But let me be the judge of my own "affliction"
To say to myself, no pressure, I am who I am and who I am is not always who I will be.
Let me change without agitation, try on that loose-fitting tranquility.
Leg space enough to acknowledge that productivity might not follow the contours of every body the same.
Whether I scream it from the mountain or whisper it, you will know my name.
So without ill feeling, I'll scroll past those monotonous "Workers Needed" posts for introspection has given me the vision they scarcely had:

Team CoolDrive is the latest V8 Supercar team to launch their 2016 campaign. The #21 car out of the Brad Jones Racing stable has a new name, a fresh look and a different engineering lineup heading into the season ahead.
Tim Blanchard will be driving a relatively new chassis when he takes over 'Alice', the Freightliner Racing chassis which was debuted at Darwin in 2015. The car has proven speed, claiming a number of podium positions in its time with the team.
Wally Storey moves from Jason Bright's #8 car, to co-engineer the Team CoolDrive Commodore with Tony Woodward, who continues on the #21 car. Combined they will bring vast experience and new ideas to the table, with the goal to get Tim cemented in the V8 Supercar Series.
Blanchard has spent the last couple of days in the Albury workshop, giving him the opportunity to look at car preparation, complete seat fittings and spend time with the team who are busily preparing for the test day on the 22nd of February.
'Brad and the team have made me feel very welcome. Wally (Storey) is easily one of the most experienced engineers in the field so it's fantastic that he is stepping up to work on my car. It shows the team are eager to solidify my spot in the championship.'
'I'm going into the season ahead looking to get consistent results. I know it will take time to get to the front so the expectations are set accordingly. I'm looking forward to the challenge the year ahead will bring.'
'The cars are competitive, with all of them achieving top ten results and podiums throughout the 2015 season. From the feedback I've had, people are excited to see what I can do in the Team CoolDrive car so it's without a doubt that I'm happy to be on board.'

Fate Core
I'm happy to say that Fate Core's Kickstarter has launched! Of course, by now everyone reading this has probably seen it, but still worth me pointing out.
When I left Evil Hat, Core was late in development. Lenny & I spent quite a bit looking at every point where people complained about rules confusing, every point where we were found that we were explaining around things when playing at conventions, and language use in general.
Fate Core's math isn't dramatically different — it didn't need to be. But we kept finding problems with its language, and because of that, we re-designed parts. Back it and you'll see; the playtest draft is available upon backing.
I used to joke that Core was Lenny & I writing a book on how language affects mechanics. (Because language affects conception and perception, and that affects when we use mechanics and how we interpret them.)
The rest of the Core team's pretty rocking, as well. Jeremy Keller is solid people, and I can't think of two people better suited to be the next leaders of the Fate community than Mike Olson & Brian "Lord Danger" Engard. And, of course, Fred Hicks will make it look good, both in an aesthetic sense and in an information transmission/cohesion sense.
So, if Fate's even remotely your thing, or it was once and grew not to be, check it out. We didn't just rehash Fate 3's text for generic purposes. And I'm pretty proud of that, even if I didn't carry it over the finish line.

I couldn't have done it without you, sir. Thank you.
My gosh yes. The PDF is glorious. I finally feel comfortable with the thought of handing it to someone else with no explanation. I loved FATE, but was at odds with the way it was presented. It's markedly more professional now.
Also, though the art is not currently there, the layout is already gorgeous.
It was an honor to work on this with you guys. The response has been both humbling and gratifying, and that's due in a large part to yours and Lenny's efforts. Bravo.
Yay, this. I came in late in Fate Core's development process, but it was a joy to work on.
When I caught wind of this project on Twitter last night, right before I went to bed, I promptly backed it at $30 without even thinking twice. Without reading the details, without even looking at the video. Still haven't. This morning, I thought about why.
And it boils down to: Twitter engagement. The people I've interacted with on Twitter involved with the project have always been insightful and courteous. The company behind it seems to put a lot of value in engaging its fans, and I believe in that approach.
So hats off to everyone involved with Fate Core. Really looking forward to giving it a whirl.
FATE's presentation has improved dramatically over the years. I can remember really struggling with it in Spirit of the Century, frowning at a bunch of free versions of it, then finally getting an "A HA" when reading Dresden Files and loving it from then on. I'm pleased to say that even in draft the trend continues.
Dresden's success in that area and others was obviously the result of a huge team effort; not that you're not a phenom, but something of that scope and consistent quality just flat couldn't be done without a great team.
Hey Ryan thanks for the reminder of this, I was out of city on work when this flew out and missed the initial notice, just signed up for my book.
Clearly the game needs a Fate Core drinking game!

MDB launches second phase of DC Lottery's successful "Unless I Win the Lottery..." campaign.
Washington, DC, [Embargoed until 10/20/15] – We've all heard someone say, "See you tomorrow...unless I win the lottery." It's now part of the vernacular and it's all over social media. And in early 2015, it was the DC Lottery's advertising campaign. The campaign has just won the award for best TV coordinated campaign at the lottery industry's annual national conference (NASPL). The idea, created by MDB Communications in DC, is now back by popular demand and entering its second phase with a program that includes two :30 TV spots, radio, and online.
One idea supports the launch of The Walking Dead Scratcher tickets. Based on a post-apocalyptic zombie fantasy, The Walking Dead, it features two hapless characters that find themselves at the door of a nasty looking house that is purported to have zombies. Just to be on the safe side, they have asked a zombie hunter to join them but when he doesn't show, we learn that he said he'd be there...unless he won the lottery. The zombie attacks.
A second idea supports the new Washington Wizards Scratcher tickets. It features a team waiting for "some big power player" who happens to be late. The coach informs the guys that he said he'd be there, unless he won the lottery. Of course, he doesn't show, but a player half their size appears, making it clear to at least one of the players that they're not winning this one.
"The humorous Unless… campaign highlights the DC Lottery experience of winning and the excitement for the new scratchers," says DC Lottery Marketing Director John Gorman. "We are excited about its appeal to a wider audience.
The Walking Dead spot begins airing October 20th, 2015 and can be viewed here. The Wizards Scratcher spot will begin airing on October 26th, 2015.

In 2015, court ordered Haryana Transport department to grant third ACP scale along with interest on leave encasement delayed amount to the petitioner Mr. Suraj Bhan.
Department failure to comply with the orders lead court to pass directions to attach official vehicle of the Director General of Haryana Transport Department. An amount of Rs 5 Lakh as compensation was awarded to Mr. Bhan as part of benefits that were denied in April 2015.

Mr Bhan joined as a conductor on Jan 1, 1979 and retired in May 31, 2011. His pay scale was revised from rs.1200-2400 to rs 4000-6000 from Jan 1, 1996. Again promoted to Sub Inspector on July 3, 2002 in pay scale of Rs 5800-7850 but his pay scale was not upgraded.
As per Haryana Revised Pay Rules -2008, his pay scale was revised to Rs 9300-34800 from Jan 1, 2006.
The problem came as the rules were in conflict with the act. As per Act third ACP on 30 years of service and 10 years of second ACP scale. There were no adverse remarks in the ACR (annual confidential report) of Mr. Bhan.

In 2015, the case was decided in Bhan's favour where court ordered Haryana Transport Department to grant third ACP scale along with interest on delayed payment of leave encashment.

Tooth whitening provides a quick and dramatic improvement to your overall smile. If you've done some research, you have probably found out that there are a number of products and services on the market today. Here is a quick guide to help you pick the best type of whitening for your specific needs!
Home whitening kits- All whitening products that work utilize some form of hydrogen peroxide. The main difference between an over-the-counter solution and something administered by a dental professional is the concentration of peroxide. Products like Crest Whitestrips will give you similar results to in-office whitening, but over a much longer time frame. Given you needs and expectations, this could be the perfect solution!
Whitening trays- These trays are made from a clear material like Invisalign retainers and are custom molded to your teeth. Since they prevent the peroxide from contacting your gums and cheeks, a higher concentration can be used. They are typically used once a day for two weeks, followed by one day a month for maintenance.
In-office "Zoom" whitening- Here, whitening solutions are directly applied to the teeth under the supervision of a dental professional. The gums are blocked out using a special material and a very high concentration of peroxide is carefully applied to the teeth. The results are instantly noticeable and long lasting. This method achieves the same results as weeks of OTC whitening in about an hour and a half.
"Mall Whitening" Kiosks- These stands (usually found in shopping malls) offer whitening services for rates somewhere in between home whitening kits and professional in-office whitening. However, the employees operating these stands are not dental professionals and generally cannot offer any products stronger than what you can buy over the counter. Your money is better spent either with a Whitestrip-type product or in an actual dental office.
Whitening toothpastes, mouthwashes, floss, etc.- Just about every dental product nowadays advertises some sort of whitening ability. However, don't expect to see huge benefits. They are mostly aimed at surface staining, rather than the deep discolorations that cause yellow/ dark teeth. To get vibrant white teeth, you need to seek out a product that contains hydrogen peroxide.
Natural whitening remedies- In general, whitening products that don't contain hydrogen peroxide (or some form of peroxide) won't really show any benefits. There are a number of instructions online, involving everything from strawberries to oil pulling, but it is unlikely that any of them will actually work. If you're looking to maintain a whiter smile naturally, cut back on pigmented liquids and drink with a straw when possible.
We hope you found our short run down on whitening useful. As always, if you have any questions, please give our office a call!

A box of three pretty glittered glass angel Christmas ornaments, made in West Germany in the 1980s. Four inches high, the angels have embossed silver Dresden foil scrap wints attached to the backs. They have curly gold glittered hair. One folded arm rests at the side of each angel's cheek, the other upon a cloud of iridescent glitter in blue, red, or green.
The angel ornaments are in excellent, probably unused condition with no damage. The metal caps are marked West Germany. The box also has a label reading Handcrafted in West Germany. There's a tear to the cellophane lid window and some minor storage or handling wear to the box, but it's intact with no tears or splits.

September: it's a funny old month, isn't it?
Sometimes it's hot, sometimes it's cold. Sometimes it still feels like summer, other times it does a passably good impression of the very depths of winter. You just never really know where you stand with September, do you? It's like everyone's least-favourite ex-boyfriend, really: if only we could just block its number, and stop returning its calls!
Alas, though, we have to just get on with it instead, and what better way to keep the September blues at bay than with a sneaky little H&M order? (No need to answer that question, by the way: I know there are plenty of better ways to beat the blues, it's just that this is MY way, and I'm sticking to it. M'kay?) If you read my 'Blogger Mailbag' post last week, you've probably already seen this skirt, which arrived in an absolutely gigantic box. The other item in that box? Er, it was a candle, actually: and just a regular-sized candle at that. I've no idea why H&M thought it required such a huge box, but oh well: ours is not to question why…
Anyway, that box might have been (mostly) empty, but a quick look at the H&M website was enough to convince me that I could easily fill another one, if I had the means to. I'm resisting for now, but here are some of my favourite items from H&M right now, just in case you want to take delivery of a big ol' box of your own. You're welcome.
01. Jacquard weave skirt
This whole look reminds me of this outfit, which I wore back in July. And no, the fact that I already have a near-identical one doesn't stop me wanting THIS one. Should it?
02. Pink court shoes
Totally wouldn't have guessed these were H&M, if I hadn't seen them on the website. I also like the 'light mole' version, but the pink has won my heart.
03. Bell-shaped skirt
It's not ACTUALLY shaped like a bell, but it is very full, I'll give it that…
04. Black ribbed dress
It's basic, but then, so am I. I could see this being one of those "wear every day" kind of dresses: totally simple, but so easy to dress up if you wanted to.
05. Polka dot cigarette pants
Look, they have polka dots on them: need I say more?
06. Green lace pencil skirt
I'd actually discounted this when I saw it online, because I hate the fact that the lining is shorter than the skirt itself, but then I happened to see it in the window of an H&M I passed last week, and was immediately struck with the conviction that
the world my closet would be a better place with this skirt in it. I've yet to put this theory to the test, because I'm doing my best to resist the siren song of skirts right now (by which I mean, "I like to at least PRETEND I'm not going to buy them, even although I know I am"), but maybe I owe it to myself to find out for sure that I really do hate the lining? And there's only one way to do THAT, isn't there?

It was all talk and no action, as this was nothing more than an exercise in meeting a regulatory requirement to hold three hearings before the Marine Life Protection Act's South Coast Study Region reaches its conclusion.
The sea of faces packed into the meeting hall and overflowing onto the patio at the Sheraton Four Points Hotel included some two hundred anglers clad in fishing t-shirts and scores of blue-shirted students bused in from High Tech High North County, La Jolla Country Day, and other area schools.
When the hours of public testimony finally sputtered to an anticlimactic stop, the commission adjourned without taking an action or even discussing the issues. The Teflon-coated Integrated Preferred Alternative assembled last year by the MLPA Blue Ribbon Task Force appeared unmarred. Pleas from the environmental community to add Palos Verdes to the closure list and expand the reserves proposed for Laguna and La Jolla seemed so much hot air.
Likewise, the Commission majority didn't blink when confronted with the implied threat of further legal action from aggrieved fishing interests who suspect a rush toward a predetermined conclusion. Earlier this month former DFG Deputy Director and Sportfishing Association of California president Bob Fletcher won his Public Records Act lawsuit against the BRTF and the Master Plan Team (aka Science Advisory Team), requiring them to divulge internal documents.
"It's obvious this will end up in a three to two decision. It's disappointing. Minds are made up. They don't want to be confused with facts," Fletcher said of the commission majority. Fletcher and the Partnership for Sustainable Oceans urged the commission to put a halt on MLPA proceedings until there is a reasonable opportunity to review the records.
"No harm will be done to the natural resources of California by the postponement, but considerable harm to the integrity of the regulatory process will be done if the commission pushes on and forces a vote in December," the PSO asserted in a statement.
That December implementation hearing is set for the 15th and 16th at the Hotel Mar Monte in Santa Barbara.
Paul Lebowitz is covering the MLPA process for WON, and is a former sportfishing kayaker stakeholder in the process.

If you would turn your favorite obsession into a beautiful collection, forbid your friends and family from giving you ANYTHING for your shrine - at least, not without your prior approval.
I spent many years with a wonderful guy who collected, among a zillion other things, Mickey Mouse memorabilia. One of the most over-merched characters of all time, the mouse provided a wealth of garbage for easy gifting. My friend had some truly wonderful MM items, but who noticed them next to the giant stuffed Mickey that some dumb girl gave him in a failed attempt to take my place? One family member presented him with a MM collector's plate every Christmas. (No surprise: her own curating taste tended towards china plate depictions of schnauzers from every Franklin Mint-ish place on Earth.)
I loved this episode even while it made me fume. In my experience, nothing erases the fine line between collector and hoarder faster than being given tasteless crap by your loved ones.

Nuremberg Defense
|The Nuremberg Defense
is a legal ploy in which the defendant claims he/she was "only following orders"
from a higher authority.
The "Nuremberg Defense" is often used by U.S. companies and U.S. government entities to defend themselves against charges of reverse discrimination. They claim that giving preference in hiring and promotion to certain, preferred races and ethnicities is, in fact, mandated by the U.S. government's civil rights laws and that they therefore cannot be held legally accountable for the alleged reverse discrimination. In other words, they were "just following orders".
The term "Nuremberg Defense" was originally coined during the Nazi war crimes trials at Nuremberg after World War II. Nazi war criminals who were charged with genocide, mass murder, torture and other atrocities used the defense "I was only following orders" so frequently that the argument became known generically as "The Nuremberg Defense".
The "Nuremberg Defense" is quite effective in reverse discrimination cases if the reverse discriminator was, in fact, following government rules and regulations. Just as during various war crimes trials during the past 60 years, if the government at whose behest the alleged illegal act was committed happens to be in power, and happens to be running the court in which the case is heard, then the defendant (reverse discriminator) is generally granted immunity from the discriminatory effects of his/her actions.

The Lost City of Z (PG13)
Starring Charlie Hunnam, Robert Pattinson, Tom Holland
Directed by James Gray
A National Geographic-fied Downton Abbey meets Heart of Darkness is how best to describe this Brad Pitt-produced biopic of Edwardian era British explorer Percy Fawcett.
Sons of Anarchy's Charlie Hunnam plays Fawcett who in 1906, then a soldier, was recruited by The Royal Geographical Society of London, to map uncharted territory in Bolivia, and thus began his lifelong obsession to find an ancient civilisation in the Amazon.
Unlike his peers like Robert Peary and Ernest Shackleton — who led successful expeditions to the North and South Poles, respectively — Fawcett's claim to fame is that he never found the fabled city and all he yielded were theories (which weren't validated until recently).
As such, Fawcett's heroic — and ultimately tragic — quest, while lavishly recreated and visually lush (it was filmed in the Colombian rainforest), feels somewhat incomplete and unsatisfying.
But I was stoked to to learn more about Fawcett, who was said to be the inspiration for Indiana Jones. Isn't curiosity the driving force of exploration? (***)

"Whatever you do, don't think negative thoughts or you will bring them to life."
Whenever I read this or hear someone say this I want to scream. First, I stop and question if that is true because, well, I'm human and if it is true, I'm screwed. Then, I let my intuitive and logical mind unite and remind me that, if that was the case, I would have been poisoned, stabbed, suffocated, burned to ashes, drowned, publically flogged or have been locked up in a padded room by now.
And since that hasn't happened yet, I'm pretty sure that this "fact" can be re-categorized as an urban myth. As a rational minded mental health professional who is equally committed to her spiritually based mindset, this popular belief drives me even more nuts.
When someone tells you not to think negatively, it's like saying, don't think of the color red. Whatever you do, don't do it. Don't think of the color red. Block it out of your mind. Don't do it! Are you doing it? Are you thinking of the color red? Why are you thinking of the color red?? I told you not to. Now your whole world is going to look red. And in your effort of making yourself feel better, you instead feel like a failure, beating yourself up because for the life you, you simply can not block red from your thoughts. Which makes the red feel even brighter and stronger in your mind.
When we experience challenging moments in life, we are going to have negative thoughts. We are going to have sad thoughts and angry thoughts and fear filled thoughts. To tell ourselves we shouldn't feel that way is a huge disservice and setback to our healing process.
Giving ourselves permission to feel and think how we are feeling in the moment is sooo important in the process of acceptance. To deny ourselves how we really feel is the act of stuffing our emotions down and that's the kind of stuff that actually gets us in trouble. Those feelings want to come out. In those moments, they are asking to be heard, they want to be accepted and understood. And when we tell them they are wrong because we are uncomfortable with them, they grow even stronger to keep our attention.

Hepatitis ruling to cost NHS millions
The health service faces a bill of at least Ł7m after a ruling that patients infected by hepatitis-contaminated blood should be compensated.
Individuals in six test cases will receive between Ł10,000 and more than Ł210,000, a High Court judge has ruled.
They may also be eligible for further compensation if they become ill again.
Mr Justice Burton ruled that, in all, 114 claimants were entitled to compensation.
Those affected include young children infected while being treated for leukaemia and mothers who received blood transfusions or blood products immediately after childbirth.
Others were infected during blood transfusions or through blood products received during surgery, or while being treated for a blood disorder.
The judge will consider whether to grant the defendants leave to appeal on April 10.
If he does grant permission, payouts will be delayed until the outcome of the appeal was known.
The six "lead" cases highlighted the judge were:
Her total payout, including compensation for financial losses while she has been ill, was more than Ł210,000.
He was awarded a total of more than Ł53,000
She was awarded a total of Ł37,000.
She has suffered lethargy and a serious psychiatric reaction, but she has refused treatment because she was worried it would make her too tired to look after her children.
She was awarded a total of Ł26,000.
He was awarded a total of more than Ł10,000, with the assurance of more if he becomes ill again.
One course of medication was successful, but he relapsed. A second course was successful. He too was awarded Ł10,000, with the possibility of further payouts if necessary.
A spokesman for the Haemophilia Society told BBC News Online that although no haemophiliacs were involved in this case, the judgement offered a "morale boost" to those infected with Hepatitis C.
"It's a very important moral argument to the government to answer our calls to help people who have been infected with Hepatitis C."
It is the first multi-party action to go to court under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.
Anthony Mallen, of Deas Mallen solicitors, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, praised the act and the EU directive on which it is based for strengthening consumer laws.
"Producers are not liable for risks which are genuinely unknown to exist, but as soon as the possibly dangerous nature of the product has been discovered by someone somewhere, they will be liable if they continue to supply dangerous products.
The claims were brought against the National Blood Authority, in England and the Velindre NHS Trust in Wales who contested the action.
The organisations who will be affected by the ruling are the NHS bodies today answerable for the production and supply of blood and blood products by the National Blood Transfusion Service since March 1, 1988.
During the case, Michael Brooke QC, for the defendants, said: "All of these claimants have suffered in one way or another the stigma of being Hepatitis C sufferers.
"The public is often confused about HCV and wrongly believes that it is similar to HIV infection."
The case is important because it sets an important precedent by establishing a legal link between medical liability and consumer rights.
A second case, involving nine claimants including haemophiliacs and a woman infected during a heart transplant, will have a preliminary hearing in May.

There were two items of interest today. Bear with me to the end. The first is funny, but the second is, well, odd, and I'm only sorry I can't find the accompanying picture anywhere on the internet. Probably just as well, as I think it might turn a few stomachs.
Anyway, the "problem" page contains the following letter:
We're in despair. We bought two hens for the garden, but it has turned into a nightmare. They are bossy sods with strange alien eyes and weird dinosaur feet. They amuse themselves by terrorising the neighbour's cat and "singing" their special egg song at six o'clock every morning. They freak us out by pecking at the back door, so they can "be with us". Their fastidious appetites and mind control skills mean that we now spend a fortune on the special hen treats they insist on - so much so, in fact, that each egg we get now costs us roughly a tenner. And we're vegetarians, so we can't even kill or eat the feathered horrors. what can we do?
I laughed like a drain as I read this. I can just see myself in this situation if I didn't have a sleection of cats ready and willing to murder any poultry I decided to keep, not to mention the local foxes.
However, the really big surprise was on the penultimate page of the main section, where they routinely have an "Unsettling Animal Picture of the Week". It was a naked woman with a huge fish diagonally across her body, the head slightly above her right shoulder, the body hiding her fight breast and a fin almost but not quite hiding her left nipple. She is holding the tail in front of her at groin level, with a smattering of thin pubes showing.
The name of this weird woman? Great Skanky, of course. Missing Gavin, honey?

A Local Campaign Is Growing Against These Plans: Newhaven East Quay and Port Expansion Area Development. Planning Application LW/15/0034. Geoff King writes:
Whilst I recognise the importance of sustainable regeneration and employment for Newhaven this must be balanced against the impact it may have on the local environment which, in turn, will impact on the local community. In other words, it cannot be right to allow re development at the cost of everything else.
As a regular daily visitor to Tide Mills I do have grave concerns about so much of Tide Mills being placed 'out of bounds' by the proposed harbour development. The resulting buildings and cranes etc. will do very little to enhance the ambiance of Tide Mills. My greatest fear is that we end up with a totally inaccessible beach and foreshore with the way blocked by industrialisation much as the unsightly mess that exists between Bexhill and Hastings.
The sandy beach by the East Arm will also be lost, this is a real tragedy. The harbour expansion proposals will leave us with a very much diminished foreshore. Perhaps this really reflects NPP's engagement with and commitment to Newhaven in that as well as fighting any access to the West Beach they now plan to destroy the East Pier beach as well.
As to the proposed nature reserve, I don't feel that this is much by way of mitigation. After all, what are NPP offering other than a piece of land that we already have access to. I do appreciate that any wildlife, flora or fauna etc. that migrates to the proposed nature reserve to get away from the proposed harbour development needs to be allowed to flourish in safety.
I am all for sustainable development and for improving the local prosperity by way of trade and employment but any economic benefits must be balanced with the social, environmental and ecological impacts that they may have. Once we have lost this land on Tide Mills it will never be regained. I believe that the town, the local community, the wildlife, flora and fauna will all suffer in the name of supposed progress.
As to the proposed port expansion plans I have the following observations:
The first observation is around the viability of the plan. Newhaven used to have larger cargo ships coming into the port to discharge cargo but that stopped many many years ago now and it must at least 10 years now since the 'nodding donkey' cargo crane was dismantled on the East Quay.
The question needs to be asked as to why that cargo trade stopped and Newhaven fell into decline. The answer is that the port did not have then and still doesn't have now, the road and rail links to make large scale cargo operations viable.
This then leads to the wider question of would we even want to see 'motorway style' roads carved out through the South Downs to link Newhaven to the rest of the UK motorway network. I would hope that the answer to that question is NO!!!
So the very viability of this port expansion scheme is a flawed concept from the outset.
The next observation is around the cost to our own local environment of this port expansion plan.
There are three strands to this issue.
The first issue is the actual port expansion itself. This will take up a large area of Tide Mills, a much valued local amenity and wildlife resource. The area adjacent to the East Pier will become a 'concrete jungle' of new warehouse's and offices, lorry and car parks and a quay side with huge cranes.
The second issue I have with the published proposal is that it also takes in the only accessible sandy beach left to local people and visitors alike, namely the area in the corner of Tide Mills next to the East Pier. So, having excluded local people and visitors from the sandy West Beach, NPP now propose to take the other sandy beach away as well.
If NPP had any real commitment to the town of Newhaven and to local people and visitors it would repair the sea wall and re open the West Beach.
The third issue is around the displacement of the wild life that call Tide Mills home. NPP do feature a 'token' nature reserve into these plans but that is hardly the answer for destroying a much loved and valued beauty spot and a valued habitat for both flora and fauna.
Then, and not directly linked to the Harbour Expansion Planning Application but a key feature in the destruction of Tide Mills is the proposed new Port Access Road. The proposed site for the roundabout at the harbour end of this proposed new Port Access Road is on Tide Mills adjacent to the corner were the tyre reclamation works are. This proposed new Port Access Road and roundabout will take up an area of Tide Mills as large as the proposed area for the port expansion itself further destroying this valued beauty spot and habitat for the flora and fauna that call Tide Mills home. It will ruin the much valued amenity land for local people and visitors alike.
In short, between the two proposals, the port expansion and the port access road, about half of what we currently know and enjoy as Tide Mills will be destroyed and along with it the flora and fauna that inhabit it.
And all this is 'for what'?
I am all for progress and sustainable growth both in the local economy and in local jobs but this must be tempered with a concern for our local environment, as once destroyed; it will be gone for ever.
Exponents of these proposals would say that with the proposed offshore wind farm and associated shore based activity that these plans for Newhaven Harbour are justified. However, there is an ever growing debate that would suggest that wind farms are not the 'all encompassing' solution to our energy needs and that without huge government subsidies, and that's tax payer's money, i.e. our money, these wind farms can never be economic in their own right.
There are also the environmental and ecological issues around destroying so much of Tide Mills. The last time such a large area of Tide Mills was under threat was back in 2010 when it was proposed that the outfall pipe for the new Peacehaven Water Treatment Works be constructed on Tide Mills, Planning Application LW/630/CMS. At that time East Sussex County Council imposed so many environmental and ecological constraints on the proposals that the company concerned abandoned any plans to use Tide Mills for the construction operation.
If those many and varied environmental and ecological constraints were valid in 2010 then they are equally just as valid today.
So to summarise: Progress and growth are very laudable ambitions but not at the expense of our much valued local environment. Tide Mills needs protecting, not destroying!
So rather than just accepting that NPP will expand Newhaven Harbour taking in even more land I believe that the existing crumbling quaysides on the East Quay should be repaired and better utilised thus providing the options for new berthing for shipping.
NPP have much under used land within the current harbour boundary fence. With careful planning, new quayside and new buildings etc. NPP's port expansion plans could be accommodated within the existing harbour boundary fence.
As for the argument that Tide Mills has long been designated as 'port expansion land' that designation is probable 20, 30 or even 40 years old and so out of date in the 21st century when attitudes to the environment have so dramatically changed.
In short, I believe that this harbour expansion plan should not be regarded as inevitable and that it should be opposed.
Pictured above: This is a unique environment, one of only a very few such places along our coastline that is accessible. The Sandy Beach, Shoreline and the land behind the beach should be protected. Don't allow it all to be destroyed.

Kia Ora!
Yes, it's time for one more Memebox reveal. So far I've unboxed the Cacao one, the Mask 4 box, and the Birthday box.
This one is all about skincare. I'm excessively excited about what's inside. I refuse to confirm whether or not there is embarrassing dancing going on while opening this box. Skincare is my current obsession and I love playing with new products!
Looks fairly standard so far ... but what are the goodies that are inside?
Lots of boxes, but what are they hiding? Something good, or will it be a wacky and weird product to test out?
Rose Balancing Toner
This toner smells amazing! It's like walking in a rose garden. The weird thing about this little sample is that it is a gel, rather than a water product like most of the toners I've seen/used before. The gel does turn into a liquid when it is slightly heated on the skin. I'm interested in seeing how this works as part of a skincare routine.
I am sensing trouble in trying to get it out of the jar though. It is made of a hard plastic, and the gel is quite sticky and doesn't come out easily. Perhaps I'll have to resort to cotton buds, but that's fine. This seems to sink into my skin immediately, so I'm keen to see if there are any long-term effects.
RRP: $58 (full size 50ml)
Sample 5ml: $5.80
Verikos Advanced Power Tightening Cream
I'm not really old enough (I think) to worry about age issues with my skin, and as this cream is supposed to 'fight the first signs of aging' I'm not sure it's right for me. However that could be due to a delusion that I'm still 20.
I'm happy to try it, and I love the fact that I've received a random and different moisturiser to try out. It smells a bit like oranges, which is funky.
RRP: $36 (full size 75ml)
Sample 4g: $1.92
Snail Bee High Content Essence
I'm feeling very strange about the combination of snail secretions and bee venom. I'm not 100% sure where in the skincare routine this goes, but I'm keen to try it out.
The product is a gel (that looks like snails have been running around) and it turns into a liquid as it warms. It sinks into the skin really well, and leaves it hydrated. It has a very subtle sweet scent, but I can't identify it any further than sweet.
Full size
Boscians Cycle Repair Wrinkle Spot
Again with the anit-aging stuff. I'll be happy to try it out, especially since it seems to be so popular on all the beauty forums. I've even seen an 18-year-old who is very worried about lines and aging skin. It all seems a bit silly to me, but I like playing with different skincare products so I'm not going to complain.
This product is a thin white cream that absorbs into the skin really well. I'll be interested to see if there is any difference in the fine lines on my forehead. It has a very fine tip, which dispenses the cream in a slow, deliberate fashion. So I guess you don't need very much at all.
Full size
White Dew 7 Cut Extreme Serum
A whitening serum. I heard that these were all the rage in Asian countries, so I was kind of expecting something of this nature at some point. I'm pretty pale anyway, so I don't think it will do anything good for my skin, but I'll give it a shot anyway.
The bottle has a fancy dropper which is quite fun to play with but I'm not sure how practical it is, as it is a bit difficult to use. The product spreads very easily, so I'm going to assume that it will last for a significant amount of time.
Full size
Super Plumping Jelly Cream
The name of this product is quite exciting. I want to play with it on the name alone. It's another product in this box that starts as a gel and becomes a liquid when applied to the skin. This goes on as the first or last step of a skincare routine; although applying it first seems counter-productive as it will just be cleaned off.
This jelly has a fairly strong scent, but it is pleasant and semi-sweet. The card states that it contains blueberry, orange, almond, broccoli (really?!), pumpkin, and salmon eggs. That seems like a very strange mix of ingredients, and I'm excited to see what the results, if any, with future use.
Full size
Tea Tree Porest Powder in Toner
Finally a toner that is in liquid form. The addition of powder seems a little strange, although it mixes in fairly well when shaken. The tea tree scent is quite strong, but that isn't a bad thing. I don't have much else to say about this product as I haven't tried it yet.
Full size
Well with the sudden influx of skincare products I shouldn't have to buy any for myself for a year or so! I'm really excited about this box, which makes a nice change from other boxes where I like most of the products but not usually all of them. I think the Memebox addiction is well and truly begun!
Total value of the box: $ 193.72
Holy heck. That is fantastic value for a box I paid about twenty bucks for. Absolutely blown away by this one! Good job Memebox! Love your work! Can't wait for the next influx of boxes (due around late September/October).
Until next time ...

The National Theater in Beijing, next to the Great Hall of the People, and very close to Tian'anmen Square - the historic center of Beijing.
We arrive underneath the building
It's an intimidating building, and would be easy to get lost in. Of course that wasn't allowed to happen.
2019 seats - really a gorgeous warm acoustic.
After they got there in various stages , settled in, and coughed* a fair amount, the audience was pretty attentive - including of course the conversations, which we presume were about the performance. An interesting thing is that if you raise your camera it will be lasered by red pointers operated by the personnel distributed around the hall. A cheap and effective solution which worked very well... hence no pictures of our performance. This was our joint performance with The Shanghai Quartet. The audience appreciated Chen Yi's piece, but really came to life for the Chinese folk song set. The people who started clapping in time were hushed by the others, and there was a certain amount of singing along and it was all very active and brought the concert to a nice conclusion.
*Beijing is a dry place. There's lots of coughing. We are trying not to participate as we are told that at the checkpoint between Shenzen and Hong Kong on Saturday, there will be heightened health surveillance.
After the concert there was a gala reception at which the Youth Chamber Choir of the Chinese National Center for the Performing Arts, directed by Lingfen Wu, sang three Chinese songs for us - two in arrangements by Chen Yi.
We responded with "Journey to Recife" and "Way up in Jerusalem."
Then friendly exchange breaks out. Professor Wu meets Gabe. She explained that choral music is indeed relatively new to China.
Before l990, she said, mostly revolutionary songs were sung in groups. Then when Chinese musicians began to come back from abroad ( as she did from the Moscow Conservatory) they began introducing choral music.

Reed Selected As No. 2 Pick In USL First Division Draft
Jan. 25, 2007
UCLA senior goalkeeper Eric Reed was selected as the No. 2 overall pick by first-year club California Victory in the 2007 USL First Division College Player Draft on Wednesday afternoon.
Reed, a three-year All-Pac-10 selection from Mission Viejo, Calif. (Laguna Hills HS), started 55 career games for the Bruins and recorded 24 shutouts and a career goals against average (GAA) of 0.81. During his junior season in 2005, Reed earned third-team NSCAA/adidas All-Far West and first-team All-Pac-10 honors after recording a 0.60 GAA, which ranked as sixth-best in the nation. He also had 12 shutouts, the third-most in UCLA history. In 2006, he helped lead UCLA to the NCAA Championship game with three post-season shutout victories, including a 4-0 win over fourth-seeded Virginia in the NCAA semifinals.
Reed has already made an impression in USL with his play with the Southern California Seahorses of the Premier Development League (PDL) the past three seasons. In 2006, he earned PDL Goalkeeper of the Year honors after leading the league with a 0.62 GAA and 10 shutouts. He was also an all-conference honoree in 2004.
