Needle trauma may cause neuropathy after nerve blockade. Even without injection, nerve injury can result from forceful needle–nerve contact (NNC). High opening injection pressures (OIPs) have been associated with intrafascicular needle tip placement and nerve damage; however, the relationship between OIP and NNC is unclear. The authors conducted a prospective, observational study to define this relationship.
Sixteen patients scheduled for shoulder surgery under interscalene block were enrolled if they had clear ultrasound images of the brachial plexus roots. A 22-gauge stimulating needle was inserted within 1 mm of the root, and 1-ml D5W injected at 10 ml/min by using an automated pump. OIP was monitored using an in-line pressure manometer and injections aborted if 15 psi or greater. The needle was advanced to displace the nerve slightly (NNC), and the procedure repeated. Occurrence of evoked motor response and paresthesia were recorded.
Fifteen patients had at least one clearly visible root. OIP at 1 mm distance from the nerve was less than 15 psi (mean peak pressure 8.2 ± 2.4 psi) and the 1-ml injection could be completed in all but two cases (3%). In contrast, OIP during NNC was 15 psi or greater (mean peak pressure 20.9 ± 3.7 psi) in 35 of 36 injections. Aborting the injection when OIP reached 15 psi prevented commencement of injection in all cases of NNC except one.
High OIP (≥15 psi) consistently detected NNC, suggesting that injection pressure monitoring may be useful in preventing injection against nerve roots during interscalene block.
In 16 patients scheduled for shoulder surgery, injection of solution 1 mm from a brachial plexus root resulted in low (8.2 psi) opening injection pressure, whereas injection of solution with the needle apposed to the root resulted in high (20 psi) opening injection pressure. These results suggest that high (>15 psi) opening injection pressure may indicate needle–nerve contact and avoiding injection in this condition might improve patient safety.
Needle trauma from injection in or close to peripheral nerves may result in neuropathy, although whether monitoring opening injection pressure can detect needle–nerve contact to improve safety is unknown
In 16 patients scheduled for shoulder surgery, injection of solution 1 mm from a brachial plexus root resulted in low (8.2 psi) opening injection pressure, whereas injection of solution with the needle apposed to the root resulted in high (20 psi) opening injection pressure

Needle tip advanced to 1 mm from the nerve ("precontact") (fig. 1A)
Needle tip against the nerve with the minimum pressure required to displace and/or indent the nerve slightly, as previously described.14–16 ("needle–nerve contact") (fig. 1B)
Needle tip withdrawn 1 mm from the nerve ("disengagement") (fig. 1A).
Team member A: Performed all needle manipulations while blinded to injection pressure. Commanded the start of injection, and communicated when spread of injectate was noted on ultrasound. Needle position and occurrence of spread were confirmed by an additional team member, who was experienced with ultrasound imaging and ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia but did not participate in data collection.
Team member B: Recorded all nonpressure data (minimal threshold current, occurrence of EMR, and/or paresthesia).
Team member C: Operated laptop computer and pressure recording, and syringe pump infusion. Monitored injection pressures (PendoTECH and BSmart) and stopped pump if injection pressure reached 15 psi.
Team member D: Operated nerve stimulator and filed ultrasound data and video clips.

Letting go doesn't mean that you don't care about someone anymore. It's just realizing that the only person you really have control over is yourself. – Deborah ReberSome people believe holding on and hanging in there are signs of great strength. However, there are times when it takes much more strength to know when to let go and then do it. – Ann Landers
The truth is, unless you let go, unless you forgive yourself, unless you forgive the situation, unless you realize that the situation is over, you cannot move forward. – Steve Maraboli
In the process of letting go you will lose many things from the past, but you will find yourself. – Deepak Chopra
If you want to forget something or someone, never hate it or never hate him/her. Everything and everyone that you hate is engraved upon your heart; if you want to let go of something, if you want to forget, you cannot hate. – JoyBell C.
Cry. Forgive. Learn. Move on. Let your tears water the seeds of your future happiness. – Steve Maraboli
If he's not calling you, it's because you are not on his mind. If he creates expectations for you, and then doesn't follow through on little things, he will do same for big things. Be aware of this and realize that he's OK with disappointing you. Don't be with someone who doesn't do what they say they're going to do. If he's choosing not to make a simple effort that would put you at ease and bring harmony to a recurring fight, then he doesn't respect your feelings and needs. – Greg Behrendt
We are all of us stars, and we deserve to twinkle. – Marilyn Monroe
There ain't no way you can hold onto something that wants to go, you understand? You can only love what you got while you got it. – Kate DiCamillo
The most difficult aspect of moving on is accepting that the other person already did. – Faraaz Kazi
Suffering is not holding you. You are holding suffering. When you become good at the art of letting sufferings go, then you'll come to realize how unnecessary it was for you to drag those burdens around with you. You'll see that no one else other than you was responsible. The truth is that existence wants your life to become a festival. – Osho
Letting go helps us live in a more peaceful state of mind and helps restore our balance. It allows others to be responsible for themselves and for us to take our hands off situations that do not belong to us. This frees us from unnecessary stress. – Melody Beattie
Will this matter a year from now? – Richard Carlson Ph.D
Inner peace can be reached only when we practice forgiveness. Forgiveness is letting go of the past, and is therefore the means for correcting our misperceptions. – Gerald Jampolsky
Let go. Why do you cling to pain? There is nothing you can do about the wrongs of yesterday. It is not yours to judge. Why hold on to the very thing which keeps you from hope and love? – Leo Buscaglia
Some of us think holding on makes us strong; but sometimes it is letting go. – Hermann Hesse
Forgiveness in no way requires that you trust the one you forgive. But should they finally confess and repent, you will discover a miracle in your own heart that allows you to reach out and begin to build between you a bridge of reconciliation. – Wm. Paul Young

Breeding Cows For AMS19 June 2013
AUSTRALIA – As Automatic Milking Systems are considered by more and more farmers, the issue of teat placement and robot friendly udders continues to raise concerns about herd culling percentages.
Reassuringly, FutureDairy has announced that few cows have udders that are unsuitable for robotic cup attachment.
The issue centres around farmers placing more emphasis on the robot's ability to attach cups and the cow's ability to walk voluntarily around the farm. AMS herd managers look for cow size and conformation of udder, rump and legs.
Peter Williams, from the Australian Dairy Herd Improvement Scheme, will explain how automatic milking may influence breeding decisions at this year's Dairy Research Foundation annual symposium, to be held at Kiama on 4-5 July.
"I would encourage farmers with AMS to pay more attention to teat placement," said Mr Williams.
"Over many years there has been an industry-wide trend to bring the rear teats closer together, resulting in the potential for rear teats to angle and cross over. This would make robotic cup attachment difficult."
"AMS farmers who want to widen the distance between rear teats should select bulls from The Good Bulls Guide with a Rear Teat Placement ABV of less than 100," he said.

text: Share: Comments Print October 2, 2013 at 2:48 PM Keith Jarrett surpasses all expectations | Concert review Posted by Paul de Barros (Sven Thielmann) Apart from a first, revelatory encounter with Keith Jarrett in the '70s — and that probably doesn't count, since it was comparable to a first date with a future spouse — Tuesday night's performance by Jarrett and his trio at Benaroya Hall surpassed anything I've heard in 40 years by this extraordinary pianist. When he's really on, Jarrett has a way of drawing listeners into his compressed realm of concentration, where the notes seem to fall like crystals in a snow globe. Even when he was probing intensely, or flying over the keys at top speed, Jarrett's playing had a clarity and lightness, the egolessness he famously strives for but does not always achieve. Nothing felt forced — there was little gospelish vamping — and he got in and out of his ideas quickly, as if to say, "Well, there is it is. Hope you like it." Boy, did we ever. The jubilant crowd cheered the trio back for an unusual four encores, which suggested that the 30-year-old trio was playing very well, indeed. As always, Jarrett, bassist Gary Peacock and drummer Jack DeJohnette offered a mix of standards, bebop and originals in a variety of tempos, with some melodies heavily disguised. Include in that group the opening ballad, "Some Day My Prince Will Come," which began with a long, cross-handed rumble over knocking drums, melted into swing time and a bass solo, glanced by the melody, then vamped out. But that was just a warm-up. Jarrett flooded "Blame It On My Youth," with tender melancholy, swelling and ebbing as he ran a heartbreaking chromatic knife down its spine. He followed a lively romp through Bud Powell's "Bouncin' With Bud" with the first-set closer, "Fever." Second-half highlights included a fleet take on Dave Brubeck's irresistible "In Your Own Sweet Way" and, on the encores, Peacock's piquant bass line on what may have been the ballad "Answer Me," a ticking, '60s jazz-rock version of Billie Holiday's "God Bless the Child," and an exquisite "When I Fall in Love." Jarrett's concert was a beautiful beginning for the Earshot Jazz Festival. If the organization brings Jarrett back, one suggestion. Benaroya Hall is elegance personified, but it plays havoc with jazz drums. A different venue would afford DeJohnette more elbow room and the trio a more integrated sound. Earshot Jazz Festival Through Nov. 17 at various venues; free-$125, festival pass $375-$425 (206-547-6763 or www.earshot.org).

In order to save its status in the international community, Israel must offer the PA what former Prime Minister Ehud Barak once offered former Palestinian Authority head Yasser Arafat, Major-General (res.) Amos Yadlin proposed Tuesday.
Speaking at the Kalkalist economic conference in Tel Aviv, Yadlin, the former head of IDF Intelligence, suggested that Israel "put on the table the offer that Clinton put on the table." The Camp David offer included plans to give the PA roughly 94% of Judea and Samaria and all of Gaza for the creation of a new Arab state, and to give it control of the Temple Mount.
"Unfortunately," Yadlin said, "as I understand the PA's stance, they will reject [the offer]. But that will give us back our legitimacy."
If Israel does not do this, he warned, "we will lose the world."
Losing international support would mean financial ruin, he predicated. "The Israeli economy cannot survive if it loses the moral high ground," he warned. "The Israeli economy will thrive as it did in the 1990s if we offer a plan that the world sees as fair, a moral plan."
Regarding Iran, Yadlin expressed satisfaction with the United States administration's efforts to find a compromise.
"I suggest the following method of measuring if a strategy is good or bad for Israel," he proposed. "If the suggested compromise moves the clock back by half a year when it comes to the centrifuges - closure of problematic installations, removal of material... that is an important achievement, and if the Americans can obtain it I think we need to support it."
"It's not clear that it will work," he noted. "But I think the Americans are using the appropriate strategy."

Synthetic surface specialists, Bradleys Surfacing Systems
Synthetic surface specialists, Bradleys Surfacing Systems were recently commissioned by Edenhurst Preparatory School in Newcastle-under-Lyme to install a new multi-sport facility.
The new AstroTurf has converted the school's former tarmac tennis courts into a multi-use games area suitable for football, hockey, netball and tennis.
Former Stoke City FC footballer, Ricardo Fuller officially opened the new AstroTurf pitch during a special opening ceremony on October 14th in front of staff, pupils, parents and VIP guests.
Nick Copestick, Headteacher at Edenhurst Preparatory School, said: "The new AstroTurf pitch has only been operational for a short time, but it has already made a real difference to the quality of the Sports experience we are able to provide for all our children. He added: "As well as receiving expert specialist coaching, our children can now play their matches and train on this truly outstanding new facility."

The AstroTurf project was fully undertaken by Bradleys Surfacing Systems and involved puncturing the base to promote good drainage, cutting and resurfacing root damaged areas with tarmac and installing aluminum edging to the finished surface.
Tom Bradley, Director of Bradleys Surfacing Systems, said: "We were delighted to be approached by Edenhurst to upgrade the facilities at the school. We chose Playrite's MatchPlay2 as the surfacing for the multi-use games area due to its quality, durability and low maintenance requirements, which makes it an ideal option for a school that needs to host a number of different sports. We look forward to seeing the impact that the new facilities has on the children's sporting experiences".

Dublin entrepreneur bags €22m for web startup
June 12th, 2014
An Irish entrepreneur has raised $30m (€22m) in funding for what is being described as the 'Airbnb of home handyman services'.
Dubliner Oisin Hanrahan has landed the huge round of investment for the company he co-founded, Handybook.
Handybook is an online service where people can book a cleaner, plumber or general handyman quickly at an agreed price.
"We have 140 people in the team today and we'll probably scale that a little more," he told Independent.ie. "We'll double the size of our mobile team as we're seeing more people move toward mobile than ever before."
Hanrahan said that the strength of the business model was its simplicity.
"It's as simple as Hailo or Uber," he said. "The only other way to do this is to respond to ads on Craigslist or similar services."
He said that the service has been jumped on by handymen and tradesmen.
"For the handyman, you just claim the job," he said. "It's like an ATM in your pocket. We've got thousands of handymen using the service now."
Although currently only available in the US and Canada, Hanrahan said that a move to European cities, including Dublin, was a logical step in the future.
"We think this is a service that is applicable in most major services in the world," he said. "It's not US restricted. We'll look at other cities in time. But right now we don't really need to add lots more cities to grow the company. We're growing 10pc week over week and are now seven times bigger than we were at the beginning of the year."
Having formerly helped to run the Dublin-based service miCandidate, Hanrahan left Harvard Business School after just a year to start the company with co-founder Umang Dua. The startup bagged €7m in funding late last year, bringing its combined financial backing to $42m (€29m) in just two years. It now employs 130 people.
Hanrahan, a TCD economics graduate, worked in real estate in Eastern Europe before working on startups with Paddy Cosgrave, the founder of Dublin's Web Summit. He also worked in venture capital with Accel Partners in London.

Woot! so here we are again back in the research lab trying to figure out what the Lindens have done. Since the brought out mesh SL has been flipped on it's head will all kinds of great stuff. Unfortunately, mesh clothes fell off the greatness truck. So now e have fitted mesh and it is looking to be promising. I Dled a copy of Blender 2.7 and the most recent .blend file with all kinds of fixed issues. after some tinkering I have come up with a ………….half fitted skirt. LOL
The potential is there but it needs work. I can see the big trouble spots will be the booty and hips mostly. perhaps some other areas as well as you go into extreme body sizes. although do keep in mind that I'm just starting and I don't have Avastar. In fact I don't think they have a release of that for 2.7 yet. BUT….. the skirt does work and it does morph with the body, just not as good as it should I'm assuming. The developer community is hot on it though and some people are going deep into the nuts and bolts of it. So I think what comes of it should be pretty interesting we will see.
I've need to be more vocal. I'm sure some think I've all but vanished. but I'm around. Still Rping Still making things, still dealing with some PIA things IRL ( you know how that goes. ) I've also taken to flying around sl a bit more. perhaps more on that at a later date. I was trying to do snow boarding for winter but damnit there are no good sims to board it seems. Wack.
Anyways more news next time. and I'll try to blab more about my dealings. lol

Tuesday was a big release day in the paranormal/SF universe. My friend and colleague Tim Pratt (writing as T. A. Pratt) also has a new book out that I think y'all might like:
What was your inspiration for writing Blood Engines?
There were multiple inspirations. I've been writing stories about the main character, sorcerer Marla Mason, for years, and finally decided it would be tremendous fun to write a whole novel about her. The novel is also something of a love song to San Francisco, and I had a lot of fun exploring that city and its history. Plus, I've always been fascinated by Aztec mythology, so it was enjoyable to write a novel where the villain is a devotee of those bloody old gods. I managed to work in various other fascinations and obsessions, too: poison dart frogs, hummingbirds, Emperor Joshua Norton, snake gods, sex parties, oracles, and other nice things.
Who are your favorite authors and books now and when you were growing up?
Stephen King is probably the biggest influence — I started reading his novels when I was eight years old! Charles de Lint and Jonathan Carroll are also huge influences. These days I like George R.R. Martin and Scott Lynch a lot.
What is it about fantasy/science fiction that attracts you?
While I enjoy reading some mimetic fiction, I get bored in my own writing if there are no gods, monsters, or miracles. I especially like contemporary fantasy, because I like the tension created by the juxtaposition of the familiar with the magical.
Why did you decide to make Marla the chief sorcerer of her own city?
In the early stories I wrote about her, Marla was dangerous because she had power without focus. In order to make her more vulnerable and sympathetic, I wanted to give her something to lose. Thus, I made her responsible for the well-being of her own city. The responsibility puts tremendous stress on her, but it also gives her a profound sense of purpose.
What (besides writing) do you do for fun?
I like to cook, read, play video games, spend time with my family and friends, take walks to the lake or the farmer's market, and see movies. The usual things.
What sort of research did you do to write this book?/What kind of preparation do you do when you are writing?
For this book I read a lot about Aztec mythology (The Codex Chimalpopoca is no beach read, either, I'm telling you), and wound up reading a fair bit about San Francisco's history, too (I would especially recommend Tom Cole's A Short History of San Francisco — it's smart, accessible, and, well, short.) The only preparation I do for writing is making sure I'm sufficiently caffeinated.
Marla loves kicking ass. Is that your favorite thing too?
I haven't been in a fight since junior high. I'd rather have a war of words than fists anyway.
What are you writing now?
I'm working on the fourth book in the Marla Mason series, Grift Sense — having already written book 2, Poison Sleep, and book 3, Dead Reign. The books are being released six months apart, so getting all the books written in time is sort of a marathon that's also a sprint, and sprinting a marathon? That's hard on the system. But I'm still having tons of fun.
Did you always want to write? Or did you stumble into it? How did you get where you are now?
I always knew I wanted to be a writer, for as long as I can remember. (I wanted to be other things, too — an actor, a rock star, an artist, a chef.) But writing was always there, and I've been doing it steadily since at least third grade. (I think learning to write in cursive was a turning point for me!) As for how I got where I am now… sheer persistence. I write, I send stuff out, I write some more. Writing, at this point, is as necessary and familiar as eating and sleeping.
What does a typical writing day look like for you? How long do you write, that sort of thing?
I have no typical day. I have one day a week off from my day job — Wednesdays — and tend to do most of my writing then. In the morning I spend a couple of hours doing freelance non-fiction work. Then I have lunch, take a walk, think about my story, and come home and write fiction for a few hours. Though if I'm up against a deadline, I just write pretty much every chance I get — before work, after work, on lunch breaks, late at night.
Where do you write?
Mostly at my desk in my office, which is in fact a tiny little nook just off the kitchen. If I'm feeling stir-crazy I'll walk down to a cafe and write longhand there.
What is easiest/hardest for you as a writer?
I like writing first drafts, because that's where the fun and excitement is, though in truth I've started to really enjoy revision in recent years — it's not the white heat of creation, but it's a fun and challenging exercise in craft. As for what's hardest… all the business stuff. Copyedits. Proofreading a book I've already read ten times and am thoroughly sick of looking at.
What is the purpose of fantasy/science fiction, if any?
I'm not sure SF/Fantasy has a particular purpose that's different from the purpose(s) of all literature, which are variously to edify, to entertain, and to illuminate the human condition. Though if pressed I might just quote G.K. Chesterton: "Fairy tales are more than true — not because they tell us dragons exist, but because they tell us dragons can be defeated."

Written by: Camila Thorndike, Board of Directors
Watershed Management Group
While "water is life" borders on cliché, we too rarely hear about how our economy also depends on carefully managing this critical resource. Yet desert dwellers know it in our bones: no water, no Tucson, Phoenix, Santa Fe, Las Vegas, Denver, or LA. The federal budget debates challenge us to voice our priorities. While we may have dodged a bullet on the fiscal cliff, by delaying sequestration until March 1 the Administration and Congress must come up with approximately $85 billion in cuts for the FY 2013 federal budget. If Congress slashes funding for job training and investment in infrastructure improvements that help communities withstand climate change, they will dry up a rising groundswell for a water-wise future. Not one of us can afford that outcome. America's aging and stressed water infrastructure is falling apart. Fortunately, a sufficient financial commitment from Congress to manage stormwater and preserve water quality across the country could generate 1.9 million jobs and over $265 billion in economic activity. Public infrastructure investment in our most precious resource is a ready solution to our ecological and jobs crisis.
Job training is among the vital services of the Watershed Management Group (WMG). This Tucson, Arizona-based nonprofit offers internationally-renowned certification programs in water harvesting, urban stream restoration, and community-based green infrastructure. Most students are working professionals who sign up to augment or retool their skill sets for the green economy. Others are entrepreneurs who launch new businesses with WMG's help. These programs prepare property-owners, organizers, educators, and professionals such as landscape architects, engineers, planners and policy makers to grow a vibrant and inclusive green economy.
Recently, I heard Watershed Management Group (WMG) Executive Director and co-founder Lisa Shipek, a pragmatic and energetic leader, share the vision that drives her: that the dusty local riverbeds she loves would flow again within her lifetime. Anyone touched by WMG can envision a world where communities develop in concert with their environment—because we are doing so with our own hands. Anyone affected by drought or floods knows this mission is urgent. In less than ten years, WMG has built popular programs across the Southwest, Mexico, and the world in water harvesting; greywater systems; green streets landscaping co-ops; soil stewardship; technical trainings, and more. In the public co-op program, over 1,500 Arizonans alone have collaborated with neighbors to install systems that inexpensively collect, store, and channel water from the sky, into homes, and out to gardens. These and other programs endow people with the requisite skills and "do-it-yourself" confidence to thrive in environmentally and economically chaotic times.
Americans want to get to work—but not in just any job. We have reason to be selective. Climate change is dramatically elevating threats of widespread water shortage, conflict, and poverty. Support for government to take action is strong. People are connecting the dots between fossil fuel use and long-term water security. We want water dependably stored in snowpack and aquifers, not pumped hundreds of miles uphill in expensive and polluting pipelines. Low-impact and community-based green infrastructure offer solutions and jobs we can be proud of: thrifty and non-polluting ways to store water where it lands on roofs and streets, greening our lives in more ways than one.
Every drop of funding counts for WMG. Government grants help our shovels dig catchment basins and cisterns of hope; just as taxpayer dollars subsidize the roads we drive on and the bread on our grocery shelves. On average, WMG's budget is comprised of over 35% federal funding now imperiled by austerity measures in Congress. The bulk of grants we receive come from the US Forest Service (USFS), the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), and state funding that often originates at the federal level. If federal funding further declines, non fee-for-service programs like schoolyard water education may dry up and blow away.
It's easy to get discouraged about the future. The planet's heating, sickness is on the rise, natural and dollar wealth is hard to find. Politicians can avert physically catastrophic cliffs by supporting the green economy as grown by groups like WMG. Our country needs investment in restorative, community-building, and clean-energy work—not austerity.

Holiday Wedding in the Alabama Countryside
The vibrant colours, the bride's radiant smile, and Jennifer Blair's warm, emotive images, are singing out to me of all that is merry and bright in the wedding world this Christmas season. I'm always so impressed when elegance and warmth are blended well, and Nicole and Jonathan's celebration really makes that marriage of characteristics appear seamless.
Here is my list of favourite elements from Nicole + Jonathan's wedding day that would make any fall, winter or holiday wedding feel festive and classy all at once:
- A mix of perfect greenery such as holly, ferns, berries, and leaves lend a warm seasonal touch to Nicole's chosen gerberas and the local seasonal foliage.
-Nicole's dress exudes grandeur and style with it's seductive cut and fabulous ruffled skirt, and her earrings add a solid dose of sparkle--because every holiday party needs a little shimmer.
-The location offers elements of formality in a relaxed, countryside location. With it's hedge-lined aisle (something I've never seen before, but love for it's aesthetic contribution -- it's also a great way to prevent guests from stepping into the path) and columned garden pavilion which made a unique focal point for the wedding ceremony, Maria's Vineyard hits the sweet spot between country and classy.
-The cowboy boots...not that they have much to do with the holidays, but if you're a bride considering a winter wedding and are thinking about how to keep you and your bridesmaids' feet warm, boots in various styles could make a poignant fashion statement while keeping toes warm and dry.
One thing I should note is that this wedding photographed by Jennifer Blair took place in Alabama. While Vale + Vine is committed to getting its start through featuring predominately Canadian content and/or talent, I also recognize that Canadian brides and vendors are influenced by images and ideas from beyond our borders and want to open up the dialogue that comes with sharing cultural and location-based inspiration. I hope you'll enjoy where that vision takes us!

Pages of skiing's past When we think of Adirondack ski areas, it's usually the charismatic ones that come to mind: Whiteface, Gore Mountain, and McCauley Mountain for downhillers, Lapland Lake and Mount Van Hoevenberg if your tastes run to Nordic. These and a handful of others can be counted on from year to year, either because they receive sufficient natural snow, even in an era of less-reliable "white gold," or they have the wherewithal to make the stuff. But there have been lots of other, smaller areas over the years, and while they were beloved by some they have not >>More

The Adirondack Slide GuideAuthor: Drew Haas
Post-Irene slide guide. Tropical Storm Irene did more than change the face of the High Peaks: it rendered The Adirondack Slide Guide by Drew Haas obsolete. Thankfully, Haas has put out a second edition of the book that includes new slides created by Irene in 2011. The new edition follows the format of the first: it's a softcover publication with large black-and-white aerial photos of dozens of slides, mostly in the High Peaks. All of the photos were taken in winter, when the slides (covered with snow) stand out most against the forested slopes. Slides are long bedrock paths created >>More
Best Backcountry Skiing in the NortheastAuthor: David Goodman
In 1987, David Goodman got a dream job for a ski bum trying to survive as a freelance writer: the Appalachian Mountain Club hired him to write a guidebook for backcountry skiing in New England. The following year the club published Classic Backcountry Skiing: A Guide to the Best Ski Tours in New England. Unlike most ski-touring guidebooks, this one focused on down-mountain runs rather than rolling terrain, and it came out just as telemark skiing was enjoying a rebirth. Goodman later expanded his horizons westward, and in 1999, AMC split the book into two volumes, one covering New Hampshire >>More
Ski and Snowshoe Trails in the AdirondacksAuthor: Tony Goodwin
Not every classic stands the test of time—not when the public's tastes keep changing. For nearly a decade, cross-country enthusiasts have relied on Tony Goodwin's Classic Adirondack Ski Tours for advice on where to ski in the Adirondack Park. The book is a minor classic in itself, with its spare descriptions of the author's favorite ski routes and its attractive, easy-to- follow maps. This winter, the Adirondack Mountain Club has reissued the book as Ski and Snowshoe Trails in the Adirondacks and included a bunch of trips to summits that will appeal primarily to snowshoers (and daredevil skiers). Since snowshoeing >>More

Living, loving, laughing, learning
"It taught me some very simple, but very powerful, tools — simple actions like listening and reflecting can feel very out of place in a busy, task oriented, workplace — but this course showed me that such simple actions are at the very core of highly efficient businesses.
The tools resonate immediately, and are easy to take back into any workplace. Not only are the tools easy to use – but they work immediately. These are powerful tools which give anyone committed to using them the power to transform their business.
It showed me the creative potential available to any business if it chooses to tap into the whole resources of each unique individual, instead of treating its employees like a commodity."

Countdown to UGA-GSU: 59 Days
6-4, 274, Lizella GA (Stratford Academy), RS Freshman
After a stellar high school career left him as one of the Top 20 players in the state of Georgia, Lemon chose the in-state Dawgs over LSU and South Carolina, among others. He redshirted in his first season in Athens, and appeared in 7 games in 2007, recording 6 tackles and 4 quarterback hurries. He had a fantastic G-Day a few months ago, recording 5 tackles and leaving spring practice with the "Most Improved Defensive End" award. He's expected to play this season and provide depth, but his recent legal woes may slow his progress. The story of the death of his mother during the 2007 season got a good bit of national attention, and the NCAA granted an exception to allow contributions to a fund to help Lemon's family.
Depth Chart Analysis: Coming out of spring, he was listed as a #3 end backing up Jeremy Lomax (who has found his own legal problems) and Jarius Wynn. Not to harp on those legal issues, but between Lomax and Lemon, it may have a significant effect on this position. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Wynn (previously listed as a #2 DE) end up as the starter all season. He and Lomax were neck and neck for the #1 slot anyway. Depending on what happens with Lemon, he could find himself now battling for any meaningful playing time for '08. Let's hope the reports are all false.

reports are not false. felony arrest warrant has been officially filed...this kid is toast. he blew out some kid's left eye socket. i just don't understand how/why these people (pro and college athletes) can't figure out that yes they are different, yes they are held to a different standard...and unfortunately for them it is more strict and harder because you can't fly under the radar. dumb asses

while I generally agree with your sentiments I disagree that the kid is toast and I don't think they are necessarily dumbasses. A felony warrant has been issued but that doesn't make the allegations true and it doesn't mean he's guilty of a felony. I'm sure you know this but I just point out that just because you're arrested on a warrant doesn't make one guilty of that offense. Having personally prosecuted and defended thousands of individuals there is a lot of water that has to pass under this bridge before it is complete. Ed Tolley is a great lawyer so let him work some magic. Now, Coach Richt may preempt the judicial process and kick him off the team before the process is complete, that's his perogative. I personally am a "wait and see" on criminal charges. A lot can happen, trust me.

If you need a lawyer, get one who knows the law. If your lawyer doesn't know the law, make sure he knows the judge. I hear ya on the large fee. Reputation allows him to charge what he does, but I would imagine there are plenty of other less expensive lawyers who could get the same results that he does or even better.

I first noticed this amazing talent from her audition on the show – The Voice. Her audition and that of yet another awesome talent (Chike), were among the few I was opportune to watch live and it was pure bliss I tell you!
I remember thinking to myself "Wow, Skyfall???" and literally almost cringing in reality at the thought, knowing how challenging a piece like that was to 'audition' with. Fear drew me in and kept me focused… would this lady bring it? I think that element of suspense and the eventual delivery beautifully, of that piece, on that stage and if I may add with that nicely done crotchet? won me over and she did keep those elements almost all through the competition – Suspense, Charisma, some level of Ethnicity (with her wardrobe and overall look), an astounding voice control and delivery in most of her renditions.
Born performer
Voice like liquid gold!
Hi, so I am a bit curious about your name – A'rese, what does it mean?
A'rese is the short version, but my full name roughly, it means "you were born well" or "you came well unto the world".
Can you tell us a little about your academic history?
B.A. in Fine Arts. My thesis was in Printmaking.
Personally, I got to know you from some of your amazing performances on the show/competition – The Voice. Would you say that the competition did contribute a great deal to the artist we have come to know and love? And if so, do tell a little more on that?
The competition definitely gave me a chance to explore performing as a musician rather than as a theatre artist. I learned a lot while I was there.
In any competition, It's safe to say strategies may be employed to attain success eventually. Was this true for you as well and in the event it was, what strategies did you employ that aided your victory on the show?
Didn't really go in with a strategy in mind. I just wanted to show all the sides of myself. I sang songs that I personally like or that had emotional significance to me. And in doing so, I was able to share a bit of who I am.
What major life lesson did you take from The Voice?
Be yourself. Can't ever go wrong with that.
Since emerging the winner of The Voice Nigeria, you have been featured in a couple of series like 'Tinsel', 'Jemeji' and 'InspectorK' (which was recently premiered). As far as 'A'rese' is concerned, would we be seeing more of the actor or the musician?
Both. I was an actor before I was ever a recording artist. Making the transition from stage to screen has brought more attention to the acting, but both have always been and will always be a part of who I am.
What kind of artist do you consider yourself to be?
One who stays true to herself no matter what.
Prior to being a competitor on the show, 'The Voice', you had done stage plays and featured in wonderful stage contents like 'Wakaa – The musical' produced by Bolanle Austen-Peters, in London. What was your experience like on 'Wakaa'?
I'm a stage baby at heart. I always have an awesome time when I'm part of a production.
As an artist now here in Nigeria, what would you say stands out or is different about the entertainment industry here, in comparison to the UK or just internationally?
I'm not big on comparison. Not between oneself and others, not between nations, and especially not when it comes to the creative sphere. It creates toxic energy. I will say am a fan of a lot of creative work that is coming out from all of the world.
Where are you most fulfilled in terms of drama performance; on stage or on set?
All are fulfilling in their own way, but at the end of the day, I started on stage and will end on stage.
You also studied Musical theater which embodies; acting, singing and dancing. However, which aspect of these three would you say you are most passionate about or would easily 'become' if situation presents itself– the actor, the singer or the dancer?
I get asked questions similar to this a lot (sometimes more than once in the same interview lol). Where is the rule that says I have to choose? Keyword "embodies". All are part of my toolbox. All are part of me. Hopefully none of them go away! 🙂
Singing, acting, dancing, how do you manage all these professionally and almost soo effortlessly?
Constant learning/re-learning, and PRACTICE.
What inspires you and what keeps you going as an artist with such diverse and intricate talent?
Love. For all of it.
What or who has been your strongest support system so far?
My family.
Has your journey to becoming 'A'rese' met any challenges. If so, what posed the major challenge you experienced and how did you overcome it/them?
There's no such thing as a journey without challenges. But as they are all challenges I face while doing exactly what I want to do, on a road to living as my complete self and living a full life, I always find a way to be grateful for challenges and learn from them. That's how I move forward.
Which Nigerian and International artist would you love to work with in terms of music and which would you love to work with in terms of acting?
The list is long. As a newbie, I would be honored to work with and learn from any of my seniors.
Are you an introvert or an extrovert?
Outside of performing, what other activities do you engage in for fun?
What is a typical 'off day' for you like?
When I next have one of those, I'll let you know haha.
Are you big on fashion and what is your favourite fashion accessory?
Yes. Nail polish.
Your natural hair is amazing! Do you have any natural hair routines, products et al, you maintain it with? Do tell.
Thanks! Nothing special. I'm the laziest natural I know.
Are you a romantic and where (if it was the case) would be your dream location to get proposed?
What? Lol.
Where is your dream holiday destination?
Anywhere with an ocean view.
5 years from now, where do you envisage yourself?
Still working, still learning, still grateful.
What would be your message to multi-talented young achievers and artistes in the making, who are at the deciding points of their lives or careers and want to succeed, without having to compromise any part of themselves?
Be yourself, follow your instincts, trust God.

Glass Recycling Figures Remain High
20th October 2015
Recycling is now routine practice for householders as, according to figures released this week, glass recycling in the first eight months of the year remains high. The figures show similar levels of recycling to the same period last year with no real growth. That is according to Rehab Glassco – Ireland's largest glass recycling company – which released glass recycling figures this week to mark Repak Recycling Week (19 - 25 October).
In the first eight months of 2015, on average 55 glass bottles and jars (primarily spirits and wine bottles and cans) were recycled per head of population. In the period from 1 Jan - 31 August 2015, Rehab Glassco facilitated the collection and recycling of over 82,990 tonnes or almost 265 million individual bottles, jars and cans. The people of Leitrim were the top recyclers in the country, with deposits of 76 bottles or jars for every man, woman and child in the city. Galway City was the next best at recycling, with an average each of 75 items of glass recycled per person. Tesco in Artane in Dublin was once again the busiest Rehab Glassco collection site, with 267.66 tonnes of glass deposited there so far this year.
David Farrelly, Rehab Glassco Operations Manager said, "These figures show that we are maintaining the high levels of glass recycling that we have built up over the last 15-20 years. It shows that glass recycling is now a normal part of people's household routine. There are challenges however, the most notable being the deterioration in quality due to members of the public putting non-glass items such as ceramics and pyrex ovenware in the bottle banks. We are one of the best countries in Europe for glass recycling, but to keep that status we need to continue to recycle while paying attention to what we put in the bins. We would like to ask the public to only put bottles and jars into the bottle banks, please."
Seamus Clancy from Repak said: "Irish consumers have consistently led the way in better recycling, and Rehab Glassco's figures are gratifying and show how it continues to build on its success, year on year. It is proof that Rehab Glassco continues to lead the way when it comes to glass recycling and helps keep Ireland within the premium league in Europe in recycling."
Rehab Glassco continues to lead the way in glass recycling in Ireland, providing over 1,800 collection points made up of over 11,000 bottle banks in 23 local authority areas for use by the public, while also collecting from over 2,800 private customers such as pubs, hotel, restaurants, etc.

Welcome to the Red Mountain Sunday Recap!
The Sunday Recap includes an assortment of items to help keep the Gospel in front of you throughout the week. Most are from the previous Sunday while a couple look ahead to next Sunday. As you read consider these questions. Did anything land with you during worship? What did it make you think? How did it make you feel? What did you find especially sweet or challenging from God's word? What did we sing, read, or pray that left an impression on you?
Food For Thought:
If you will enter into the suffering of people, you will be entering darkness. Such darkness would overwhelm and lead to despair were there not a treasure there. The treasure in the darkness is the Crucified Christ. He who can sympathize is there. He who knows anguish is there. He who has felt tormented, abandoned, unheard, and crushed waits there in the darkness. To enter into the fellowship of his sufferings is to find him. – Diane Langberg, Suffering and the Heart of God
Timothy is called to share in suffering for the gospel because only there is the saving grace of God made clear as it retells and explains the life and death of Christ. – William Mounce, Pastoral Epistles
For next Sunday:
Sermon Text: Genesis 38
Note: Over the next 5 weeks through Advent and Christmas we are going to look at the 5 women of Christmas from Matthew's genealogy of Jesus in Matthew chapter 1. Who were these women? Tamar (Genesis 38), Rahab (Joshua 2), Ruth (Ruth 1-4), Bathsheba (2 Samuel 11), and Mary (Matthew 1). Why does Matthew include these women in Jesus' genealogy? That's the question we will be trying to answer as we listen in on the story Matthew is telling us about Jesus who came to save his people from their sins (Mt. 1:21).
Come, Thou Long Expected Jesus - Advent
Come, O Come Thou Quickening Spirit - Confession
Jesus is Our Great Salvation - Grace
Come Light Our Hearts - Response
Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence - Communion
Suggested Resources:
Whether Advent and Christmas is a season you look forward to or dread, it inevitably provokes the most fundamental of questions. What is it all about? What is the true meaning of Christmas? Let me suggest to you this brief and readable little book to help you go back to the basics of the Christian message and the good news about the coming of Jesus.
Singing To God (Psalm 95:1-5)
Arise My Soul Arise
Arise, my soul, arise,
shake off your guilty fears;
The bleeding sacrifice,
in my behalf appears;
Before the throne my Surety stands,
Before the throne my Surety stands,
My name is written on His hands.
Arise, my soul, arise.
Shake off your guilty fears and rise.
Bowing Before God (Psalm 95:6-7b)
Prayer of Confession
God of mercy, we humbly confess our need of your pardoning grace. We shelter arrogance and pride in our hearts and believe that our efforts are good enough to secure what only you can give us. We are quick to judge and grumble when our plans, pleasures, and preferences are threatened. We are slow to offer mercy, both inwardly and outwardly, towards those people you have placed in our lives and called us to love. Forgive our self-righteousness and our self-absorption. Fix our eyes on our savior, Jesus Christ, that we may become enraptured with Him, for it's in his name we pray. Amen.
Words of Grace
[B]ut God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Since, therefore, we have now been justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God. For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. More than that, we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.
Romans 5:8-11
Hearing From God (2 Timothy 1:8-12)
Sunday's Sermon: "The Good and Hard Path"
Sermon Text: 2 Timothy 1:8-12
8 Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord, nor of me his prisoner, but share in suffering for the gospel by the power of God, 9 who saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began, 10 and which now has been manifested through the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus, who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel, 11 for which I was appointed a preacher and apostle and teacher, 12 which is why I suffer as I do. But I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed, and I am convinced that he is able to guard until that day what has been entrusted to me.
Sermon Outline
- The Cost of Love
- Through a Conflict of Loves
- With a Companion who Loves us
Sermon Summary
Suffering is a universal sensation whereby human beings know that something is wrong. It is natural when we experience suffering in a particular area of our lives that we question whether we are on the right path. We wonder whether there is another path that will take us where we want to go more safely. In light of this, it is odd that Paul would instruct Timothy in v.8 to share with him in suffering for the gospel. How can suffering be a good thing for Timothy? How can it be a good thing for us? In order to answer these questions, we ask three other questions of this text: "What is suffering here," "why is it necessary," and "how can we do it?".
First, when we look closely we find that suffering in this passage is the Cost of Love. Jesus' love for a rebellious world was brought to light through His life, death, and resurrection (v.10b). Paul was then commissioned to spread this light to those who had never seen it (v.11). However, just as Jesus' love was demonstrated through great cost to Himself, Paul's calling also came with a cost. Not only was he sent to prison for upsetting political stability, he also lost all social honor in the process. Therefore, the suffering discussed in this passage is not general suffering that comes from living in a broken world. It is the suffering that comes from giving up one's own self-interest for the sakes of others.
Though few of us have callings like Paul and Timothy, there are many spheres in which we are called to love others at a cost. To hold biblical convictions on issues like Biblical authority or final judgment is to be misunderstood by our culture. However, it is only loving that God's truth be made visible to a world greatly struggling with its identity. Costly love also comes with raising kids, where time, energy, sleep, and hobbies have to be sacrificed. It comes with caring for an aging parent, or putting up with someone who is difficult to work with. It might involve sitting in the sufferings of others. It could even look like forgiveness, telling the truth, or admitting that we are wrong. It is important to remember, however, that Christ is the one who paid the ultimate cost for us. We will never be able to love others to the extent that He did. Rather than become discouraged at our inability to suffer much, it is better to be reminded that Christ did what we could not. We can rest in the security that His suffering for us provides, and then imitate His love as if it is now our family business.
Second, we may want to ask here why suffering is necessary in following Christ. If He really loved us, would He not have called us to walk a different path? This passage answers this question by illustrating a Conflict of Loves.There are two paths indicated in these verses. The first is the easy, or downhill path, characterized by a love of our own works and purposes (v.9). It is also characterized by a love of human power. Caesar's coronation, where he was displayed as a semi-divine being, was called his "appearing" (v.10). Caesar was a symbol of human power, as well as a promise of prosperity for the culture. However, following this path would only result in death. The second path, however, is the more difficult, or uphill path. It is characterized by a love of Christ's purposes and grace (v.9), and His "appearing" (v.10) as the true power of the universe. Though this path involves suffering, it ends in life. These paths are in conflict with each other, and it often seems like the easier path is best. However, Christ's work gives us a view of the end of each path. Only His path will not disappoint.
There are many ways we choose the easier path everyday. Idolizing materialism, pleasure, or political power are easy examples. However, there are other ways that can be more deceptive. Many of us hate suffering, and avoid it at all costs. We even avoid the sufferings of others because they only remind us of the sad possibilities in this world. We do our religious duties and retreat to our happy places. Others of us, however, embrace suffering thinking that we have embraced authentic spirituality. We look down on those who love their comforts, and we feel secure in the fact that we have given up much for the sake of Jesus. However, both of these paths put their faith in man's work and purposes. Christ's path involves full submission to His purposes and grace for us. It can feel vulnerable when we are fully at Christ's mercy to allow whatever, whenever into our lives. However, we have the promise here that His path leads to life in the end.
Finally, we need to ask how we get the strength to share in Christ's sufferings. Merely knowing that suffering with Jesus ultimately leads to life is often not enough to motivate us to do it. Paul's answer is that we also have aCompanion who Loves us. In v.12, Paul says that He is able to suffer because he knows "whom" he has believed. He goes on to say that he is convinced that the one he believes in will guard Him all the way until the end. V.8 also startlingly points out that Paul considers himself Christ's prisoner, and not Rome's. The full effect of this personal language is that Paul suffers in close relationship with Christ. He is not left alone with a knowledge of the end, he goes forward on his path with Christ as his close companion. The one who suffered for Paul with a costly love, through a deadly conflict of loves, is the one who will never leave him until the end of the path.
Knowing that we have a companion to help us along the way is a powerful sign that we are on the right path. Some of us feel discouraged by our own struggle to accept the cost of loving others. We feel that our selfishness and self-protectiveness is too strong to overcome. The good news is that we do not go alone. It is Christ's purposes that will prevail, and He is with us. Others of us don't want to accept the cost of selfless love. We are strongly skeptical of the wisdom of the harder path. However, this passage tells us that the harder path is where Christ is. It is the path where the joy of Christ is on offer for us.
How do we know if we are on the right path? According to this passage, we know we are on the right path if we are walking with Jesus: imitating His Cost of Love, through a Conflict of Loves, and right next to Him as ourCompanion who Loves us very much.
Reflection Questions
- What was new or compelling to you? What stood out to you from these verses?
- What questions do they raise for you?
- Was there anything that bothered you?
- Where in your own life are you most tempted to look for an easier path, rather than follow the harder path of costly love?
- Does it make you uncomfortable that the God who loves you would call you to love others at a cost to yourself?
- What difference does it make for you that Jesus is with you every day?
Confession of Faith: Westminster Shorter Catechism
Q. 91. How do the sacraments become effectual means of salvation?
A. The sacraments become effectual means of salvation, not from any virtue in them, or in him that does administer them; but only by the blessing of Christ, and the working of his Spirit in them that by faith receive them.

I dragged back a huge stack of books from moscow, mostly children's stories and fairy tales. I love the Russian Winnie-the-Pooh books. I just found (and got really excited about) some of the Pooh cartoons on youtube which are about 110% better than the bastardised Disney versions. I totally remember watching them when I was little. The voices are brilliant!
There's an interesting blog about the Russian Winnie-the-Pooh here, if you're interested in a bit of history.
Did any of you grow up in Russia too? Do you remember any of this stuff? I was obsessed with all Soyuzmultfilm cartoons especially (click for youtube) Hedgehog in the Fog, Malish and Karlsson and Nu, pogodi!. I also loved any book by Nikolay Nosov to the point of obsession.
Here are some pictures from the books I bought:

The Ministry of Investment and International Cooperation is the principal investment institution and supporter of Egypt's economic relations with other countries. The merger of the Ministry of Investment and the Ministry of International Cooperation was announced in early 2017, with the aim of ensuring the investment and economic efforts of both ministries were being implemented in an efficient and inclusive manner. Since then, The Ministry of Investment and International Cooperation has been working with full force towards enhancing Egypt's business climate in order to attract investors and fulfill the Egypt's goal of becoming a strategic and global business hub.
The newly merged Ministry has also embarked on major legislative and institutional reforms which have direct tangible effect on both the level of domestic investment and inflows of foreign direct investment (FDI). Additionally, a newly set priority of the Ministry is to capitalize and build on the importance of Egypt's role in various fields of investment by reforming the investment climate in Egypt, attracting FDI, improving non-bank financial services and introducing a comprehensive asset management program to state-owned enterprises. The Ministry is also undertaking significant procedures and implementing strict timelines to launch an investment map and submit executive bylaws of the new Investment Law. After a complete investment policy is intact, the Ministry is hoping the strategy will lead to further growth in various investment fields. Lastly, the Ministry also works on creating affiliates to ensure maximum efficiency and effectiveness in the investment scene, such as GAFI's launch of The Investors Dispute Settlement Center.
