Apple Agrees with Feds on Automated-Vehicle Policy?with a Few Key Changes
Although Apple?s plans for the world of self-driving cars remain opaque, the tech behemoth has taken a keen interest in the federal government?s new policy on autonomous vehicles.
In five pages of comments submitted to regulators, a top Apple executive outlined the company?s position on the new Federal Automated Vehicles Policy and offered suggestions on how it could be clarified to accelerate the process of putting test vehicles on U.S. roads.
The letter gave no hint on whether or when Apple is planning to introduce its own autonomous vehicles or provide self-driving technology to another company that produces cars. But Steve Kenner, director of product integrity at Apple, nonetheless conveyed enthusiasm for a foray into autonomous vehicles.
?The company is investing heavily in the study of machine learning and automation, and is excited about the potential of automated systems in many areas, including transportation,? he wrote in comments submitted to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on Nov. 22.
?By sharing data, the industry will build a more comprehensive dataset than any one company could
create alone.? ? Steve Kenner, Apple
His comments generally supported the major planks of the Federal Automated Vehicles Policy, which federal leaders unveiled in late September, including plans for a 15-point safety assessment of autonomous cars and the development of a network in which competing companies could share anonymized data on autonomous crashes and near misses. ?By sharing data, the industry will build a more comprehensive dataset than any one company could create alone,? Kenner wrote. ?This will allow everyone in the industry to design systems to better detect and respond to the broadest set of nominal and edge-case scenarios.?
Kenner emphasizes these shared datasets should be stripped of any identifying data to ensure motorist and vehicular privacy. He went further, proposing that the auto industry should create privacy standards that are more stringent than the ones adopted by the Auto Alliance, the main lobbying arm of major OEMs, in November 2014.
Apple?s top concern isn?t necessarily one that arises in the policy, but it?s one that a revised policy could potentially fix. A provision in the Fixing America?s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act, enacted into law in December 2015, permits established manufacturers to test new technologies on public roads without the need to receive an exemption from federal motor vehicle safety standards. But that doesn?t extend to newer entrants into transportation.
?To maximize the safety benefits of automated vehicles, encourage innovation, and promote fair competition, established manufacturers and new entrants should be treated equally,? Kenner wrote.
While NHTSA can?t override the FAST Act?that would require an act of Congress?regulators could amend the policy to state that exemptions are not required for testing of vehicles on public roads, as long as they are never ...

I know what furikake has in it but what are you supposed to do with it? I've been using it for years to season rice but have no idea if that's what it's for.
It's used to season rice like you said. Sprinkle it on, mix it in or put it in the middle of a rice ball if you like, however you like it.
You could also mix it with sliced cucumber for a refreshing side dish. And sprinkled on spam musubi before your wrap the nori adds a nice zing -- especially if you use the wasabi furikake.
If you have the ume style of furikake, you can sprinkle it on tofu before pressing it with paper. It "marinades" the tofu and tastes wonderful!
Wow - thank you, Mon 1. I just noticed recipes for furikake are oftn mentioned but rarely what to do with it.
Folly - great idea - I frequently mix diced cucumber with diced avocado and shredded carrot and use a dressing made from mirin, soy sauce, rice vinegar and sugar - I'm going to mix in one of the furikake mixtures next time and see how it tastes. I'll bet the wasabi furikake would be good with shrimp too!
Addi - wonderful advice for seasoning tofu - I tried it with the ume and it's so flavorful!! I wouldn't have known or thought of that, Thank You.

Find Home Health Agencies Near You
Home Healthcare Agencies
Home health agencies provide skilled medical care in your home. Doctors prescribe home healthcare when someone needs help recovering from surgery, an accident, or a serious illness. Home healthcare is a great option when your elderly loved one is not ill enough to be in a hospital but is not yet well enough to be home alone. Home healthcare agencies are licensed by the state and must also adhere to federal regulations.
Home health agency nurses do some of the work that doctors used to do when they made house calls: They administer medications, change dressings, manage catheters and intravenous lines, give injections, and provide other skilled home medical care. Therapists assist patients with recovery and help them safely regain mobility. The nurses and therapists can also teach patients and family caregivers how to perform many of these tasks. Less skilled workers, such as certified nursing assistants (CNAs) and home health aides, also help with care under the supervision of an agency nurse.
Note: Home healthcare, which is short-term medical care, is different from in-home care, which is short- or long-term personal assistance but not medical care. Sometimes the same agency can provide both types of care.
Cost of Senior Home Health Care
In most cases, home health care agencies are not set up to provide fee-for-service; they offer services that are reimbursed by Medicare or other insurance. If they do charge fee-for-service, Home healthcare costs range from $15 to $75 per hour, depending on the training and expertise of the specific healthcare worker who comes to your home. Nurses and physical therapists are more expensive; home health aides charge less.
When your loved one is recovering from surgery, accident, or illness and home healthcare is prescribed by a doctor, it's generally covered by Medicare. Here's the tricky part: Medicare provides coverage for a specific ailment. Once recovery from that ailment is complete, Medicare coverage ends. And Medicare coverage also ends if your loved one ceases to make progress in recovery efforts.
When home healthcare is not covered by Medicare, you can explore additional options, such as veterans benefits, Medigap, Medicaid, long-term care insurance, or private pay. Learn more about How to Pay for Home Healthcare.
What Certified Nursing Aides do
Also called: CNA, home health aide, certified nursing assistant, certified nurse aide
A certified nurse aide is a caregiver who will come to your home to provide medical care. Home health aides and CNAs may also help with other day-to-day care needs, such as bathing, dressing, light housekeeping, or meal preparation.
Generally, home health aides and certified nurse aides have undergone formal training and certification. They can administer medications, and many have received special training to change simple dressings, give massages, and assist with braces and mobility devices. Some are also trained to operate and troubleshoot medical equipment, such as home oxygen or ventilators. Training and certification requirements for this type of caregiver vary by state, so be sure to ask about each caregiver's unique qualifications. You should expect any home health worker to be supervised by a nurse and to provide care as outlined in your loved one's home healthcare plan.
What Physical Therapists and Occupational Therapists do
After a stroke, fall, broken bone, or serious illness, your loved one will likely need help with movement and muscle strength. Your home healthcare agency may send a physical therapist or occupational therapist to your home. A physical therapist can help your loved one with overall mobility: walking, getting in and out of bed, sitting, and standing.
An occupational therapist will help your elderly loved one with activities of daily living, such as eating, buttoning clothes, and brushing hair. These types of caregivers can also help relieve pain, improve range of motion, and build up and retain muscle performance.
When a physical therapist or occupational therapist comes to your home, you can expect him to teach your loved one to do specialized exercises. Ideally, the therapist will also provide you with detailed instructions, with each step illustrated and clearly explained. Ask your therapist how frequently your loved one should do the exercises and how to be sure the exercises are being done correctly. You can also ask a physical therapist or occupational therapist to help you figure out how to make these exercises a routine part of your loved one's daily routine.
Physical therapists and occupational therapists may also use massage, heat, water, passive exercise, or electricity to help your loved one recover.
What Speech Therapists do
Also called: speech language pathologists (SLPs)
If your loved one's illness or injury has affected her speech, your home health agency might send a speech therapist to your home. Speech therapists provide care to improve a loved one's speech, language, cognition, voice, and swallowing. They may provide drills and activities to improve skills, or they may provide strengthening exercises for the muscles of the lips and tongue.
What Visiting Nurses do
Also called: registered nurses (RNs), licensed practical nurses (LPNs), licensed vocational nurses (LVNs), advanced practical nurses (APNs)
These nurses provide skilled care, including administering medications, changing dressings, managing catheters and intravenous lines, and giving injections. You can expect a visiting nurse to evaluate your loved one, take vital signs, and write detailed notes about your loved one's progress.
Visiting nurses are highly trained and tend to have higher hourly rates than other types of caregivers -- up to $75 per hour.
Home Healthcare Plan
Home healthcare agencies will assess your loved one's specific healthcare needs and propose a healthcare plan, sometimes called a plan of care. Your loved one's doctor will then review the healthcare plan and sign it to show approval. The healthcare plan details what type of medical care your loved one will receive, what types of workers will provide the care, how frequently they will come to your loved one's home, and how long the care is expected to last. You should receive a written copy of the plan of care.
Depending on how the patient's needs progress, the home care agency may request an extension of services. They'll send additional paperwork to the doctor for approval. And you'll want to be sure to confirm that your loved one's insurance will cover extended services.
Note: It can take time for the doctor of record to approve the original healthcare plan or the extension of services. In the meantime, most experienced nurses and therapists just get started with what they think the patient needs, unless they see an area of concern. This usually works well. Be aware, though, that care providers and doctors aren't necessarily conferring closely (or at all) about what's happening. So don't assume that everyone's on the same page about what's needed. If you have a question about any service, be sure to ask the home care agency and the doctor.
How to find a Home Healthcare Agency
In most cases, the doctor or hospital will make arrangements for home healthcare. If you'd like to know more about any agency, search right here in the Caring.com Home Healthcare Directory to see reviews and ratings from other families.
It is also possible for you to choose a home healthcare agency rather than having one assigned. If you'd like to find your own home healthcare agency, start your search below.

BY THE Congregational Church ON Steamer America Boat Carries 3,<XX) People E erybody Can Go Miss Schmitt Will Put Police On Miss Webster If She Doesn't Move Immediately--Letter Reprinted Below Speaks For Itself Miss Martha Webster, for several years a teacher in the Louisville Public Schools, one of the most loyal public spirited women in the community, the organizer and one of the builders of the Y. W. C. A. work among colored people of this section, who a little over a year ago gave up her position in the school room to accept the executive secretaryship of the Phyllis Wheatley Branch Y. W. C. A., received dismissal orders from the Central committee of management some weeks ago. This was done without the knowledge and approval of the colored committee of management of the Phyllis Wheatley Branch, which according to those in a position to know is to manage and supervise the colored work. The disregarding of the rights of the colored women in the unpopular order to Miss Webster has held up the Y. W. C. A. work, and brought about a controversy which has claimed the attention of the public for several weeks. Feeling within her rights Miss Webster has continued to occupy a room in the Y. W. C. A. building. She has been notified to move, however, and the following letter speaks for itself: August 22, 1924 Miss Martha Webster, 528 South 6th Street, Louisville, Ky., My dear Miss Webster: On July 21, 1924, we wrote you the following letter: "With the good of the work of the Phyllis Wheatley Branch at heart, we find it necessary to ask you to vacate the room which you are at present occupying at the Branch, and thus terminate your residence there. It would be much better from every angle if you could vacate immediately, but according to law, we are giving you thirty days' notice. "We regret very much this whole procedure, as we have said before, but are compelled to view the whole thing from the standpoint of what is best in building up the work at the Branch. You always have our personal wells wishes." This letter was signed by Mrs. Bullitt and Miss Harrison and myself. You seem to have failed to regard this notice and we are hereby notifying you again that these thirty days mentioned in the above letter expired August twenty-first and if you do not move out immediately, we shall have to have a policeman take the matter in hand. I hope you will not make this latter action necessary... Yours very truly, (Signed) Miss Alma C. Schmitt, Miss Alma C. Schmitt. Acting President. Chairman of Colored Work. George Wiegandt Bakery At 1811 W. Broadway Street Doesn't Want Negro Trade; Drives Customer Out George Wiegandt, the baker at 1811 W. Broadway St., doesn't want any more Negro patronage, and Negroes are urged to keep out of his place. Scattered about in the colored districts are stores of every description operated by white owners. In few cases do these dealers have any interest in colored people other than the purely cold-blooded stand point of getting his business. They come into the community as humble and courteous as any Negro ever dared be to the biggest white man; they bow and scrape and make every bid for the Negro patronage until enough of his money is gotten to get him out from the Negroes into a secluded district of white people, and then the atmosphere in the store as the Negro patron enters tells the Negro that his patronage is not wanted, it might hurt the patronage coming from the white people. We have known the time when George Wiegandt at 1811 W. Broadway was very careful not to offend a single colored patron. But the Negroes have helped materially in putting George Wiegandt on his feet and making him a bit independent. He is not more particular how he treats his colored patrons, in fact he has about made up his mind that he can get along without it. Last Thursday evening a colored lady who had patronized his business for several years asked Wiegandt for a certain kind of cake. Not having the kind the lady asked for Wiegandt offended to such an extent because she did not ask for something he had, made remarks that caused the lady to say that she would never call at his place for anything else. Thereupon Weigandt in the most insulting manner asked the lady out of the store, telling her she wanted nothing in the first place, making moves as if he would strike her. The lady who was already suffering from a nervous condition, was very much affected by Weigandt's treatment. Wiegandt does not want Negro patronage, and Negroes are urged to keep out of his place. If Wiegandt will offend one colored woman without cause, he will offend another. Keep out of his place. The number is 1811 W. Broadway St. If there are no bakeries operated by Negroes, ther are others in the community operated by whites, who are more courteous and more appreciative of your patronage than Wiegandt. By all means keep out of Wiegandt's Bakery at 1811 W. Broadway St. You are liable to ask for what he has not got and he is liable to drive you out or kick you out. Beware of Wiegandt! GO TO SCHOOL Police Kill Gassoway BEGS FOR LIFE AS STALEY AND CUNDIFF BEAT AND MURDER HIM IN MERCILESS THIRD DEGREE JUDGE CALLS GOOD MAN DANGEROUS, DESPERATE Another innocent colored man is unmercifully beaten and brutally murdered by police, but there'll be nothing done about it. After hearing the padded testimony of Joseph P. Staley and Joseph Cundiiff, the officers who killed Charles Gassoway, 30 years old, and well known, after beating the back of his head into a pulp, and then shooting him dead that he could not tell the story of the third degree ordeal he went thru in the officers' attempt to connect him with the last assault of a Mrs. J. W. Garrett last Monday night and the murder of Robert E. Stevens in December, 1923, Judge Dailey in dismissing the conscientiousless and cowardly officers said, "This case merely illustrates what difficult and dangerous situations must be met at times by officers of the law. My opinion is that this evidence clearly shows that the officers in the performance of their duty and in their own necessary self-defense found it necessary to take the life of a dangerous, desperate man, a power-man armed with a club in his hand at the time. I don't think a jury in the world would indict these officers. They will be dismissed. In the police court Thursday morning only the testimony of these officers was heard by the judge. The defense with Mr. W. H. Wright as attorney, had no witnesses to offer and Gassoway the dead victim could not give his side of the story. But there are those who know that Charles Gassoway was one of the eleven children of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Gassoway of 417 Conrad St., pioneer citizens, who brought their children under the best home training, in the church and public schools. that Charles Gassoway was always law abiding, never had very much to say, and never bothered anybody. There are those who know that Gassoway was knocked down with a chair the second time, as he arose from the first chair over his head and plead pitifully for his life, that he had no knife neither did he take one of the officers' clubs and attempt to hit him, but that the officers killed him by degrees in their determination to make him tell a lie on himself in connection with older cases. There are those for whom he worked for several years who will tell that he was one of the best employees, could be relied upon and trusted at all times, and that he was just opposite of that of a desperate character. Gassoway served several months in the World War, and the gasing he received while in action affected him so that when he was not working he either went to the Eastern Library to read for two or three hours or took long walks. He worked until noon Tuesday. But in the afternoon when he took one of his long walks in the neighborhood of Pipe Line Lane and the City Limits where he was looked upon by a white woman as a suspicious character, the police were called, and Gassoway was taken to a room of the First District Police Station where he was put thru the third degree, beaten and murdered. This is one of the many atrocious crimes committed against Negroes by Republican police officers. This is another case of the many cases where police have used their pistols on colored men without cause. The courts continue to decide in favor of the officers, and the Negroes continue to vote the strait Republican ticket creating more Republican judges to rule against them, and Republican police to beat up and kill them for the pleasure of it. The best that can be hoped for is found in the expression of Mrs. Elizabeth Gassoway, the mother, who cried out and almost fell into a faint when the judge rendered his dismissal decision, "I know they beat my boy to death, I pray the Lord for mercy on their souls."

Pathogenetic Mechanisms in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)
Females of the F1 cross between NZB and SWR mice develop a severe and accelerated glomerulonephritis, very similar to human SLE, and we are using this model to understand the pathogenetic mechanisms involved in the disease. Our hypothesis is that dysregulation of the production of immunoglobulins which are deposited in the kidneys and bear a unique marker, IdLNF1, is critical to disease development. T cell clones that react with a peptide which encodes this marker, accelerate disease, and, conversely, antibodies which react with this marker downregulate production of IdLNF1-expressing antibodies, leading to increased survival. Finally, vaccination of mice with this peptide early in life, before disease onset, leads to significantly longer survival. These studies suggest that it may be possible to develop therapeutic approaches that target specific pathogenic cells in SLE. They may also further our understanding of the role of female sex hormones in disease.
Characterization of the HTLV-I Receptor. With B. Poiesz, M. Lane
HTLV-I is believed to be the etiologic agent of adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) and Tropical Spastic Paraparesis (TSP) Binding of the virus to a specific cell surface molecule that is expressed on a wide variety of cell types appears to mediate infection. We have derived a monoclonal antibody which blocks binding of the virus to its receptor and infection of susceptible cells. We are currently using this antibody to isolate the gene encoding this molecule, and will characterize its product. These studies will contribute information critical to understanding the pathogenesis of HTLV-I diseases, and aid in the development of new approaches for their treatment.

Small Space Storage Inspiration: Curtained Closets
Shortly after college I moved to Chicago where I lived in a tiny (tiny!) room with no closet. I was lucky that my landlord sent me to The Container Store where I shopped for a storage system. They purchased what I chose and had it installed in the room's recessed nook. The room was tall and light, so I headed to IKEA where I purchased curtains that matched the wall color and would hang to the floor. It was the perfect solution: the curtains easily hid my wardrobe, kept the room airy and didn't take up any space.
So, in celebration of Small Spaces Month, here are 10 fan-tas-tic curtained closets:

The recent news that Canada has once again opted to shop around for an F-35 alternative didn't come as a shock. Ottawa has long been embroiled in a controversy over whether the government was too eager to accept early -- and some say questionable -- cost estimates on buying and operating the aircraft.
Canada announced in July 2010 it planned to buy 65 F-35s at a cost of roughly $9 billion. But concern that the cost estimates were overly optimistic has prompted another review of alternatives. This opens the door, once again, to a sale of Boeing F/A-18E/Fs (Australia's impatience over F-35 has kept that line humming), Eurofighters or, possibly, F-16s. But, it does not close the door to the F-35.
While this is big news in Canada, and in the international realm, I do question what it means in the big picture for the F-35 program.
The U.S. estimates it will pay more than $400 billion on developing and buying the aircraft; and operating estimates now exceed $1 trillion (though the Pentagon says it is trying to revise that).
During the past 11 years, since Lockheed Martin won the F-35 contract, the media rightly has covered the on-again, off-again relationship between foreign partners and their plans to buy the single-engine, stealthy jet. It is our job to write about this for the record and explore what it means from various angles. But there has been a lot of swirl around each individual decision that sometimes causes me pause. Does the loss of a single customer outside the U.S. really move the needle on the program?
I really don't think so. Perhaps I'm colored by the beat I cover; the Pentagon is the largest military market on the planet. As long as the U.S. Air Force is committed to the F-35 – whether it is 1,763 aircraft or fewer, it will move forward. Even the threat of the demise of the B-version jump jet didn't, in my view, fully jeopardize the sale of the conventional A variant.
The near-term question, as I see it, is at what pace and what cost does the program move forward? And, the USAF bears much of the burden of answering this question. From a strategic vantage, the question of whether F-35 lives up to the promise of being an international panacea for aging fighter fleets among allies on four continents – fostering interoperability and low-cost buys and maintenance – is a valid one. But one that will take years to fully rectify.
Back to the question of the impact of international waffling on F-35 …
The marketing strategies of Lockheed Martin and Boeing – its rival fighting to keep operations on the St. Louis manufacturing line alive – have fostered this mania. Lockheed always said that a hearty upfront international buy was crucial to keeping the cost of the aircraft down, even if those orders came at the sacrifice of delivering jets that weren't fully tested and needed upgrades to fix deficiencies discovered in flight trials. The company even pushed unsuccessfully for an international "coalition" buy – attempting to pressure allies for commitments as early as possible -- to bulk up the early quantities.
Boeing's strategy has also fostered the mania. Each time a would-be F-35 customer waffled, the company aggressively pitched the Super Hornet. And, rightly so. Its investors would have every right to scream if company officials didn't exploit every chink in F-35's armor.
They both pushed the "too big to fail" argument – Lockheed because it wanted the commitments and Boeing because it wanted the failure. Both companies – for their own reasons – have argued that the loss of one customer is damaging because it could ignite a mass exodus of buyers, driving a wedge into the central F-35 tenet of building an interoperable, international coalition around an inherently international fighter.
But, you really don't hear this line of thinking from customers anymore. Once Vice Adm. David Venlet took over the program in Washington, the joint program office stopped pushing Lockheed's line of reasoning publicly. Amid the global financial crisis, it seems to be each man for himself when it comes to would-be F-35 customers.
So, should we really buy the idea that a single F-35 defection alone – or even one that triggers a mass exodus – could tank the program? I go back to my earlier point. The lion's share of the F-35 lies with the U.S. Air Force. As long as the Air Force is willing to pay whatever it has to in order to buy the aircraft, it will move forward. Period. And, the service has a topline. Its goal is to squeeze as many jets out of that topline as possible. So, I'm sure the guys in blue want international buys to bring down the price. But, they aren't marketing it that way.
In Canada's case, the purchases are slated to start in 2015 with deliveries beginning in 2017. The majority of Canada's aircraft are slated for delivery through 2021 during what program officials hope will be full-rate production when the aircraft price should drop. So, a Canadian slight wouldn't change the calculus in the near term, while the F-35 is fighting high-cost in the production ramp-up phase.
Additionally, allies may groan at the price of the jet, but there will always be some willing to pay a premium if they have to. Take Japan, for example. That customer always values high technology and buys however much it can afford. Israel is the same way. And South Korea may also follow along on this path.
I'm not arguing that Canada's wavering over F-35 again is inconsequential. Any customer lost by Lockheed Martin is a blot on the promise once pitched by the company. And, it is possible that others may divorce themselves from the program, but not likely because of a single defection. With each man for himself, it would be because of the politics in each country and each nation's willingness to balance the cost of the so-called "fifth-gen" capability versus the size of their own bank accounts.
But I do think there was a lot of hysterical flaking behind the "mass exodus" theory, and I'm not sure it passes muster.

Central Islip, NY (PRWEB) November 17, 2012
On November 17th, Nationwide Vehicle Wraps Manufacturer and printer, JMR Graphics, comments on an article regarding consumers becoming victims of car advertisement scams.
In the CBS Denver article, Denver resident, Laurel Dakini, received an email from someone claiming to represent Rock Star energy drinks. In the email, Mrs. Dakini was offered $350 a month to wrap her car with the Rock Star logo. She stated that she'd seen car wraps before and thought they looked good. "I thought it'd be a little way to make some extra money," Dakini stated.
The article mentions that "vehicle wrap is one of the most effective forms of advertising in the market today. One car wrap garners between 30,000 and 70,000 views per day."
Dakini sent pictures of her vehicle via email correspondence with the supposed Rock Star representative. She said that she became suspicious of the offer when she received emails with directions on how to transfer funds. "They began asking me to wire money before this check even arrived," Dakini stated. "They were telling exactly how much to wire, where, how. And that's when I got a little suspicious." Dakini's suspicions were confirmed when her bank refused to cash the $1,850 check she received. "That's when I went, 'I'm sure something is wrong."
In response to the article, Katherine Winkler, a JMR Graphics representative, states, "There are legitimate companies that will pay you for advertisement space on your car because driven media is incredibly cost-effective way to monetize business." Katherine goes on to caution, "However, people need to be wary of being contacted directly. Companies want people who will be driving in high-traffic areas. They post ads online for people to respond to. Generally, if you're contacted by a big company asking you to wrap your car, then you can be almost certain it's a scam. However, smaller companies in your area might approach you directly, if they have seen you driving around for a while." Katherine adds, "always err on the side of caution."

Jan. 21, 2006
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - Tufts University squeezed past MIT in the 400 free relay en route to a 164-130 victory in men's swimming and diving. The Jumbos completed the final event in 3:10.67 to out-touch MIT's 3:11.60. The Engineers won six individual events, but it wasn't enough to help MIT avoid its second straight defeat in thrilling fashion.
The Engineers powered ahead early with a strong start. MIT dominated the 400 medley relay with three of the four fastest splits. Senior Grady Snyder brought home the win with an anchor leg of 46.58. Sophomore Harrison Hall opened the individual scoring with a tremendous performance in the 1650 free. Hall led from the first lap en route to a time of 17:27.47, 43 seconds faster than his finishing time at the NEWMAC Championships last season.
The Cardinal and Gray nearly swept both breaststroke events in one area of clear dominance for the Engineers. Jeremy Chang won the 100 with Matt Angle and Andrew Lee completing the 1-2-3 finish. In the 200, Angle grabbed the win, with Chang finishing just behind in second.
Tufts swam strong in the second half of the meet, winning five of the last six events. Snyder kept MIT in contention with two individual wins. Snyder swam 21.80 to take first place in the 50, although his narrow win over Jason Kapit in the 100 fly served as one of the highlights of the afternoon.
Matthieu Fuzellier authored MIT's other win on the day, hanging on to an early lead to finish first in the 100 backstroke with a clip of 52.95.

Right whale up-call
Right whales make a half-dozen types of sounds, but this is the one our auto-detection buoys listen for: the up-call.
The up-call is useful because it's distinctive and right whales give it often. A type of "contact call," the up-call is a little like small talk--the sound of a right whale going about its day and letting others know it's nearby. In this recording the up-call is easy to hear--a deep, rising "whoop" that lasts about a second.
Up-call with environmental noise
A noisy shipping lane can make things more complicated. Can you hear the whale call in this recording?
Probably not--but an auto-detection buoy can. Its software picks out characteristics of a whale call even while large ships are passing by. Sound spectrograms like the one above are very useful for this. Even though the whale call is almost inaudible, you can see the shape of the up-call in the graph.

In this commercial, a young woman freezes when someone asks her a simple question in English. The Rosetta Stone ReFLEX product (sold exclusively in Korea) is designed to help Korean learners who are studying English converse confidently. Many of these learners have studied English using other methods.

#1 Where do all the dead penguins go in Antarctica?02-02-2013, 01:37 PM
Did you ever wonder why there are no dead penguins on the ice in Antarctica?
You really didn't believe that I know anything about penguins, did you?
Where do they go?
Wonder no more ! ! !
It is a known fact that the penguin is a very ritualistic bird which lives an extremely ordered and complex life. The penguin is very committed to its family and will mate for life, as well as maintain a form of compassionate contact with its offspring throughout its life.
If a penguin is found dead on the ice surface, other members of the family and social circle have been known to dig holes in the ice, using their vestigial wings and beaks, until the hole is deep enough for the dead bird to be rolled into, and buried.
The male penguins then gather in a circle around the fresh grave and sing:
"Freeze a jolly good fellow."
"Freeze a jolly good fellow."
It's so easy to fool OLD people.
I am sorry; an urge came over me that made me do it!!!
Oh quit whining I fell for it, too.
" To the world you are just one more person, but to a rescued pet, you are the world."
"A Nation of Sheep Breeds a Government of Wolves!"
You left out the part where they kick him in the ice hole......It's not how old you are, it's how you got here.
It's been a long road and not all of it was paved.
. If you ain't havin' fun, it's your own damn fault
You also left out the part where they later resurrect him and teach him to vote as a Democrat!

Blended Beauty sent me a cute sample bag which contained most of their popular products. One of the first things I do when I receive products is smell them. I'm very sensitive too smells. Blended Beauty products have that natural, woodsy scent going on a la Carol's Daughter's and Ojon products. The scent is strong and will linger in your hair the whole day. I categorize scents as perfumey, fruity, natural, and food-like (usually products that smell like desserts such as cake). There are probably scents that I haven't encountered yet that don't fit those categories but, a majority of the products I've smelled do fall in those 4 catgeories.
In my sample bag I received the Soy Cream Shampoo, Curl Quenching Conditioner, Light Styling Lotion, Kicks for Curls, Silkshake, Curly Frizz Pudding and an instruction booklet. I haven't had a chance to try some of the products because some of them are used on 2nd day hair and I usually wash my hair everyday. I cowashed with Suave Naturals, conditioned with Curl Quenching conditioner, and styled with the light styling lotion and Curly Frizz Pudding.
My hair was a bit tangly when I took this picture. The day I tested out some of the products was the day of my friend's "winging" for the Navy. Keep in mind this picture was taken at night. I think my hair held up pretty well for a warm day where I was sweating and running around (the room where they held the ceremony was kind of warm) and I also had my windows down when I was driving.
Blended Beauty products are very moisturizing. They don't have a lot of hold but, do give me some definition. I wouldn't call it heavy clumping though. If you want to style your waves or curls but, want them to have looser definition, these products would work for you.
Since I last blogged, I've past two milestones in my life. One being my 29th birthday and the other completing a half-marathon.
I felt like I celebrated my birthday all week. It might be the most I've ever celebrated my birthday. I celebrated at work twice (once actually at work and once at a hibachi restaurant), at Cheesecake Factory, at my boyfriend's mom's house, and at a bar and club on the weekend. I even had two birthday cakes. I'm not writing to brag about how much I celebrated my birthday but, to talk about how much all of that meant to me. I don't like to talk about my personal life that much on public sites but, some days, especially during holidays or special occasions, I feel kind of alone. I have a really big family but, my parents, brother, aunties, uncles and cousins are all out of state and not really at driveable locations either. I'm not close to the family that I do have nearby because of drama that I won't get into. When I say "not close", it's pretty much like we're strangers. My grandparents are close by also but their favorite past time is staying at home. I've been lucky enough to basically be "adopted" by one of my best friend's family and my boyfriend's family. My best friend's family is my 2nd family and her parents have always been there for me like my own parents have. My boyfriend's family is forever feeding me. If you see how much I eat, you know that can be costly. I have a couple close friends nearby but, again as life does to everyone, most of my close friends are miles and states away. I can't seem to find the words to end this rambling but, basically my Facebook status that I had posted up during my birthday week should sum it up, "[I'm] grateful for all the blessings that God has given me but most grateful for all the people He has brought into my life." I can't express how happy and thankful I was for everything that was done for my birthday. Thank you to everyone who celebrated and made me feel that I do have family here. Thank you to my family, who are some of the nicest people you'll meet, my boyfriend, who never ceases to make me happy, all my friends - new and old, both sides of my boyfriend's family who are always taking care of me, and my coworkers. Let me end this with some birthday pictures before someone offers me some cheese with that whine.
Celebrating at work. Yes, I know I'm dressed like a mechanic and No, I can't fix your car. The other day, someone in my neighborhood asked me if I was a professional dog sitter because I was always walking my dog at the same time dressed in my work uniform.
Celebrating at my boyfriend's mom's house. We had no idea she was planning anything. My boyfriend even took me out to dinner to Cheesecake Factory and his mom just told us to stop by. When we got to her house, there was all this food. I wish I could have eaten more because everything was so good but, we had gotten an appetizer, main meal and dessert at Cheesecake Factory.
My final celebration which happened to be the same day as the half marathon. I had to take a nap before we left that night. Blowing out my "candle" that was actually a steak knife.
Look at the size of this carrot cake that the restaurant gives out for birthdays.
The ladies. I was cracking up hard in the first picture.
I had fun that night but, took me a long time to recover.
Like I said above, I completed my half marathon earlier that day. That's the longest distance I've run so far - 13.2 miles. I started struggling at mile 10. It was also the first time I ran with an Ipod. The night before I had just dumped a bunch of songs on a playlist that I thought would be good for running. I might have to reevaluate my playlist though. Stay by Lisa Loeb doesn't hype you up as much as you think it would when all you feel like doing is rolling yourself into a ball and resting for a bit on the side of the road.
Here's a pic of me and my boyfriend at the halfway point, between miles 6 and 7. I look rough.
I think my pose for my next race will be one of these two.
Now that I've completed the half marathon, I've come to realize that I went about my training the wrong way. Forget building up your endurance and speed and increasing your mileage by 10% each week. All you need to do is keep your adrenaline up the whole race. That rush will enable you to complete your fastest mile EVER. Take for instance what happened to me. I'm running the half marathon, staying on the side of the road closest to the trees. Of course, because you are close to the woods, they are required to put up signs warning you about surrounding wildife, including bears. I'm getting in the groove, listening to my T.I., reggaeton and occasional soft rock songs, when out of nowhere this bear comes out of the woods ready to attack me.
I jumped, said "Holy Crap, Oh shoot", and sprinted with the quickness only to find the other people running next to me were laughing. (I like to think with me not at me). That's when I realized the bear was actually a very realistic, very life-like statue. I really think I'm on to something here. Imagine if you're running a race where you are constantly fearing for your life. Don't you think you'd end up with your best race times?
My goal was to a.) Finish the half marathon without having to be carried over the finish line and b.) Complete it within 2.5 hours.
Here are the details of my race sent to me by the race officials.
Your time 2:23:29.06 gave you a 10:57 pace per mile.
Your 3M time was 32:06.57 for a pace of 10:42 per mile
Your 6M time was 1:02:16.25 for a pace of 10:03 per mile
Your 10M time was 1:46:10.59 for a pace of 10:59 per mile
