Bumble Bees at Bodega
If you're on your way to Bodega Bay in Sonoma County, stop at Bodega Head and see all the yellow-faced bumble bees on a yellow coastal plant, Eriophyllum, commonly known as the woolly sunflower.
The bumble bees, Bombus vosnesenskii, are back and they particularly like the Eriophyllum. It's probably Eriophyllum staechadifolium, agreed Ellen Dean, curator of the UC Davis Center for Plant Diversity, and Ellen Zagory, director of horticulture at the UC Davis Arboretum.
According to Calflora, it's also called lizard tail andseaside golden yarrow as well as seaside woolly sunflower.
We spotted a huge orange pollen load on one yellow-faced bumble bee. Saddle bags!

The Overlooked Bees of Bodega Head
But there's one thing they don't do. They don't check out the sand dunes, home of the bee villages.
Tiny holes are everywhere, yet nobody seems to notice.
They're the work of digger bees, aka faux bumble bees. These are Anthophora bomboides stanfordiana, researched by native pollinator specialist Robbin Thorp, emeritus professor of entomology at UC Davis.
"The (female) bees suck up water nearby and then regurgitate on the (faces of the) sandstone cliffs to moisten and excavate soil for the tunnels, construct their turrets, and finally to seal the nest tunnel," Thorp says. The bees use some of the soil from the base of the turret to plug the entrance.
The bee turrets are somewhat like our gated communities! Keep out!
The digger bees have "grocery stores" all around them. You'll see the males and females foraging on the wildflowers, which include yellow and blue lupine, California golden poppies, wild radish, mustard, dandelions, and seaside daises.
If you crouch next to the bee villages, a nearby hiker is likely to ask "Lose something?"
No, we found something!

Bye, Bye 2012
The last honey bee of 2012.
Despite the cold weather at Bodega Bay last Friday, we managed to see a few honey bees nectaring a New Zealand tea tree, aka Leptospermum scoparium.
The temperature registered 53 degrees and there they were, foraging among the dainty pink and white blossoms, as if it were spring.
As the year draws to a close, we've been inundated with words like "fiscal cliff," "spoiler alert," "bucket list" and "YOLO." (No, Yolo doesn't mean Yolo County but "You Only Live Once.")
Let's hope those words don't apply to honey bees in 2013 and the years beyond.

Diggin' the Bees in Bodega
They can fool you.
Just like replica designer bags, shoes and sunglasses meant to look like the real thing (think Louis Vuitton, Jimmy Choo and Prada), those digger bees on Bodega Head, overlooking Bodega Bay, look like bumble bees.
Especially the females.
Native pollinator specialist Robbin Thorp, emeritus professor of entomology at the University of California, calls them "faux bumble bees."
They're Anthophora bomboides stanfordiana. "The females are the ones that build the neat turrets in front of their nests on the cliff faces," Thorp says. "The females are even better mimics of bumble bees and they do not sting!"
So, if you're visiting Bodega Head to watch the whales, the waves, the birds or the boats, be sure to check out the sand cliffs for the bee villages.
If you want to capture their images, you'll want to lie flat and motionless on the ground, position your trigger finger, and frame them flying in and out of their turrets.
Soon you'll be visiting Bodega Head to see the whales, the waves, the birds, the boats AND the bees.

Feeding Frenzy on Bodega Head
If you're planning to hike the hills around Bodega Head in Sonoma County, watch out for the bears.
The woolly bear caterpillars, that is.
Last Sunday, with the temperature hovering around 70 degrees, the woolly bears were everywhere. They were munching on the gray-green leaves of Lupinus arboreus (yellow bush lupine), not yet blooming. We also spotted them on yellow mustard and wild radish, both members of the Brassicaceae family and both abloom.
If you look closely at these little caterpillars, they seem to be having a bad hair day. They look as if they just encountered a jolt of static electricity.
They're also known as the larvae of Ranchman's Tiger Moth (Platyprepia virginalis). Once they become moths, they do not resemble woolly bears any more.
Rick Karban, professor of entomology at UC Davis, has published a number of research papers on these herbivores.
"Platyprepia virginalis caterpillars are dietary generalists and feed on multiple host species within a single day," he wrote recently in Ecological Entomology. "We conducted field experiments to evaluate their performance on diets consisting of only their primary food, Lupinus arboreus, or diets consisting of L. arboreus plus other acceptable host species."
"We found that relative growth rates and rates of survival were higher when they fed on mixed diets compared to lupine only."
That feeding behavior we saw, too. A lupine lunch, with a touch of mustard and radish.

quote:5. Anthony Bennett Weaknesses: Somewhat of a tweener as he is slightly undersized for a full time PF (though that's likely his future position) and slow defesnively to play the SF position
quote:Didn't realize Smart's shooting percentages were that bad.
quote:Smart has run the point for the Cowboys this year not because he's a true point guard, but because he's the kind of player who you want to have the ball as much as possible. Ideally he would also play the position at the next level because he'd have such a size advantage, but that's contingent on Smart tightening up his handles and decision-making skills. Smart has turned the ball over 3.2 times on average this season, far too much for a future NBA point guard. He hasn't shot the ball particularly well this season (40 percent from the field and 30 percent from deep), but the major concern is over his assist-to-turnover ratio.

One thing that that really get's to me is theist who think they have the right to not be offended and all people who enable this behaviour.
I find it hard to find a theist who will have an open discussion about why they believe in a personal god at all or why they think their god is real and all the other ones aren't. Yesterday I remarked on the hypocritical nature of the followers of xtianity and was met with no argument as to why what I said was wrong but that it was rude. When I asked why it was considered rude I was told that I should have respect for peoples religion. I disagree, I'll respect your right to have religion, by all means believe whatever crackpot fairy tales you like but if you are not willing to be offended and stand up for what you believe in then you need to take a serious look into why that is.
Most of the theists I know don't argue because they do not even care weather or not their god exists, they go to church on Sunday and go about their lives as if they were Atheists. But I know there are theists out there who might care but are too afraid of being offended by talking to an evil non believer so they just tell you that you are rude.
Are people just being too polite or am i really too insensitive?
Nathan really has it right here. Laughing at people for their silly beliefs or calling them or their ideas stupid rarely courts anyone into the world of rationalism. If anything, it makes Atheists seem like ritious dicks. Unsolicited challenging of other peoples beliefs is almost always extremely dick-ish and is even less likely to win over someone. Patience of steel. One open ear at a time. Does anyone notice how patient the four horsemen can be (minus Hitchens a lot of the time).
What is the most efficient way to get people to listen? Bicker about what is offensive or not or approaching believers in a less dickish and I would argue, far more results driven way?
Don't confuse unsolicited attacks with challenging religious based advocacy (like action against use of condoms, blasphemy laws, gay rights etc...) They are totally not the same no matter what shaped bed one tries to fit them in.
Fight against barbaric advocacy, but at least think twice before ripping to shreds someone who happens to be Christian whose just trying to have a nice time at a cocktail party.
I would like to know if you really care weather or not what you believe in is real?
Then keep reading... everything. Because every single legitimate science either directly or indirectly supports Evolution and The Big Bang. When will it be enough evidence?
I have been reading so much lately my "tailbone" hurts.
That's good I also care a great deal about weather the things I believe are true are or not. So then what can we do to find out if there either is a god or not?
My first stop was Occam's razor (the hypothesis that makes the fewest assumptions is usually the correct one) and tell me if i'm oversimplifying the situation but with no evidence for the existence of a god, believing in one is a massive assumption and not believing until evidence is provided makes no assumption at all. Thoughts?
I agree that you should be under no pressure to believe until you have made a personal decision based on evidence and your own exploration. However, assumptions must be made even in strict sciences especially when stating conditions. Thomas Aquinas was of the belief that although the existence of a god cannot be proven scientifically, it is impossible to scientifically prove the non existence of a god. Athiests, when drawing upon natural law and human reasoning to explain the origin of man and the universe, must ASSUME that god does not exist because it cannot be proven by any science that a god does not exist, even Richard Dawkins admits to this. If you are skeptical of this, i would challenge any athiest to prove that god does not exist.
Strictly speaking if religion is defined by having a belief system based on something that cannot be conclusively proven or disproven, then atheism by definition would be religion. Atheism, by name, is the belief that God does not exist and because the non existence of God cannot be proven Atheism relies on an unproven assumption, a faith. Atheism is often considered the polar opposite of Christianity which in a sense is truer than most believe. While good Christians have faith in the existence of God and all doctrine that is consequential of the faith, Athiests have faith in the non existence of God and the scientific theories that rely on the non existence of God.
What i am trying to say is that even disbelief relies on the assumption of the non existence of God and that in order to fully discern, one must be open to further assumptions in either direction be it Atheist or Theist.
One reasoning of the existence of God that i find quite compelling is Thomas Aqunas' 5 proofs. If you are not familiar with them, i will outline them briefly. What is interesting to note is that although they rely heavily on assumptions, they are extremely diffucult to refute, the first three at least.
1. First Mover - The motion of the universe must have been put into motion by something stationary, some call it the big bang others god.
2. First Cause - everything we know is a result of something so if you go back far enough there must rationally be something that caused everything including the big bang.
3. Something from Something Vs. Something from Nothing - Logically something must come from something, nothing cannot create something. Back to the creation of the universe, everything in existence must have come from something, no thing spontaneously appears of no cause or creator.
4. Perfect Being - If there was no existence of a God, where would every concept of human perfection originate. (this one is more simple to refute in that it would be non beneficial for the human species to destroy each other therefore outlining ideal human action, but still food for thought).
5. Cause for Design - Everything in existence has design and design cannot exist without a designer. (however similarily to the fouth proof it can be refuted by the fact that organisms naturally evolve in order to preserve their species.
Athiests, when drawing upon natural law and human reasoning to explain the origin of man and the universe, must ASSUME that god does not exist because it cannot be proven by any science that a god does not exist, even Richard Dawkins admits to this.
Yes and no. I don't need to make the assumption, but I feel it's a reasonable assumption to make.
Science wouldn't work very well if there was an agent at play that could arbitrarily (from our perspective, at least) break natural order. Science will only work where a naturalistic explanation of phenomena is possible. Scientific methodology does not require the assumption that God does not exist -- it does not even require the assumption that natural explanations for phenomena exists --, but that being said said, if scientists themselves did not at least assume the latter, they'd really be wasting their time.
I agree with you in a sense, that is, it is necessary to make the assumption of the non existence of god in order to credit natural science with the origin of the universe.
I guess what might be worth saying is that there is a greater gap between Atheism and Science than most people perceive. It can be established that Athiesm relies on an assumption and similarily does any religion, but science does not rely on any preconceptions regarding conclusions and so should essentially be considered neutral ground in religious debate because it is simply natural law and heavily proven with hard evidence. No theistic debate should attempt to refute science and reason in favor of a theistic approach. Again to reference Thomas Aquinas, science or reason does not and by all accounts should not be contrary to Christian doctrine. If God created the world, the reason and natural law within it should coincide with His revelation and teaching. The best way to refute the existence of a deity of any sort is to prove that what they divinely reveal does not allign with what is known scientifically or through reason.
I believe that science and natural law in all respects and especially regarding the origination of the universe allign better with theism but specifically Christianity than it does with atheism. I know this will sound ridiculous to most atheists because they rely so heavily on science to refute the existence of God, but maybe they shouldn't. I welcome any debate on this topic as well and will be happy to explain further.
There isn't really anything to debate here. Your claim that reality is best explained by Christianity is baseless.
Atheists do not rely on science to refute the existence of god... christianity does a fine job of that on it's own. We do not need proof that something does not exist when no evidence what-so-ever has been given in support of that thing. The christian god however is self refuting in many ways. It is as likely to exist as a square circle.
Strictly speaking if religion is defined by having a belief system based on something that cannot be conclusively proven or disproven, then atheism by definition would be religion.
Not believing in a religion cannot be considered a religion. This is a completely ridiculous argument. Atheism does not need an answer to any of the big questions. All you need to be an atheist is to not be a theist. That's it.
Reality is not explained by christianity, but fulfilled. If you don't like that terminology, think of it this way: There are no discrepancies between reason the christian faith. It's a hell of a lot to go into but they are complementary.
Yes atheism does rely on science to refute god and i would like to know how christianity refutes god?
You are right, not believing in a religion cannot be considered a religion, what i was suggesting was that Athiesm and Christianity both rely solely on one primary assumption or faith regarding the existence of god.
I think you might be a little confused on the acutal meaning of athiesm as are many self proclaimed atheists. If you simply do not believe in a god but are not certain of the origins of the world then you are an Agnostic. Atheism on the other hand by name as i said before relies on the assertion that god does not exist. Where agnosticsm is simply disbelief, Atheism is a belief system supported by the assumption that god does not exist, Atheism provides an alternative. There is no way that being Agnostic could be considered religious, but Atheism is not so cut and dry whether or not it is a religion is debatable which is why i said "IF".
RE: "If you simply do not believe in a god but are not certain of the origins of the world then you are an Agnostic."
Why in the WORLD would anyone need to be certain about the origins of the world, in order to be an atheist? Science will explore further and further into the origins of the world, for as long as humans exist as a species, and I can't envision them EVER being entirely certain about the origins of the world, as there will always be something else out there, that needs exploring. That's the beauty of science, it's ever changing as new evidence emerges. Science consists of questions that may never be answered, but religion consists of answers that may never be questioned.
But all we need to be an atheist, is to not hold a belief in a god, until someone comes along with evidence that one exists, and so far, we're still waiting.
it is necessary to make the assumption of the non existence of god in order to credit natural science with the origin of the universe.
This doesn't really sound like it agrees with what I said on any level, and the way you are using terms doesn't actually make sense to me. I can kind of guess what you are going for, but if my guess is inaccurate, we're going to end up in two separate conversations.
It is also problematic that your definition of 'atheism' in a subsequent exchange is not accurate (even if we account for the numerous semantic debates surrounding this word), and your definition of 'agnostic' is incorrect.

Is anyone aware of any plugins, or any other way to connect and view data from an ArcSDE database in Quantum GIS desktop?
It may be possible to build a bridge through GDAL/OGR's ArcSDE driver. It's not compiled in by default and needs some pieces of the ESRI SDE C API to connect. So to build this driver you need to have a copy of the SDE C API developer kit from ESRI. If memory serves, there is a pre-compiled sde driver floating around that can use ArcInfo Workstation installed on the local machine in place of the SDK. Sources: |
I am glad to say I have it working! I'm using QGIS 1.7 from OSGeo4W: 1) get the ogr_sde.dll (compile it from Tamas http://vbkto.dyndns.org/sdk/, you also need some ArcSDE sdk files) Thing is, ogr takes a long time to connect. But viewing is ok. Just the connecting part is way too slow. Maybe someone figures out a parameter for the connection to speed it up. Duarte EDIT: forgot you also have to copy the following DLLs from your compilation in step 1: xerces-c_28.dll, spatiallite.dll and openjpeg.dll. You also need the ArcSDE libs: sde.dll, sg.dll, and pe.dll. Just put them in C:\OSGeo4W\bin. EDIT 2: more info here: http://www.qgis.org/wiki/Connecting_to_ArcSDE_databases. EDIT 3: the conection time is no longer a problem. Just a matter of correct connection string in the vrt. See the link for examples. |
If you use Postgres as your backend DB of ArcSDE, you have the option of storing spatial data in ST_Geometry (SDE spatial format) or PG_Geometry (PostGIS spatial format). If you store the data in PostGIS enabled DB and specify the PG_Geometry option when you import the data (optionally you can edit dbtune, I believe, to set PG_Geometry as the default), you will be able to connect to the data via an SDE connection or via a desktop client that can connect directly to PostGIS (such as QGIS) |
You can connect directly to the underlying database (PostGIS, Oracle or personal geodatabase), there should be no need (and maybe no way) to use ArcSDE as middle-ware. |
There is currently no way. If you were to use one of the Java based FOSS4G tools it should be possible using the SDE connector in geotools. I think this is how geoserver connects to SDE. There is currently no data provider in the C++ world that plugs in to QGIS |

Stockholm is an enjoyable city to travel with children due to its distractions and facilities. Besides its parks and gardens, there are several strolls and activities for younger tourists. Who won't be enchanted with Pippi Longstockings' house or with the zoo and the toy museum
Kids and grownups will experience truly magical and fantasy moments as they enter Astrid Lindgren's child tales, author of Pippi Longstockings and of Alfie Atkins, in the house-museum of Junibacken. Right at the entrance, visitors stand before a square filled with characters out of children's books. Also filled with characters from children's imaginary is the Stockholm's Toy Museum. Dolls, dollhouses, trains, cars and planes are some of the objects exhibited. The museum is divided in several sections, among which is the Mickey Museum.In the heart of Stockholm, one finds a cultural center with activities for children until the age of 12. For free, the space provides, among other things, access to the library, to the visioning of films or the reading of stories, in several languages. Those who wish to have a different experience, as being an astronaut in a space adventure or making his own TV shows, should visit the National Science and Technology Museum. Outdoors, parents can take the children for a walk or a bike ride to the several gardens that exist in Stockholm. They can also choose organized activities in theme parks. Gröna Lund is, for example, an amusement park with restaurants and several attractions for kids. The Skansen Park is also based on diverse attractions (recreates life in Sweden during the 18th and 19th centuries), an aquarium and a zoo. In an enormous green space, the Haga Park, is situated the Butterfly House, with hundreds of colorful butterflies originally from all over the world. In the same park you can find rare fish, insects, lizards and miscellaneous flora.

Before they we're nasty bustards. Now they're just sick.
The allegation came to light after the 32-year-old man was arrested over the death of Baby P, who has now been named as Peter.
WTF is it with people like these.
WTF is it with the government. Haringey Council FAILED, yet they still say they did the best they could, they still defend the Council saying they have improved.
That's very good that they've got better because, lets face it, they couldn't have got worse.
There best was soooooo bad it's amazing something like this doesn't happen all the time in Haringey.
Before I was thinking that this sick bastard was just a sick bastard and needed to be hung.
Now I'm thinking this sick bastard is mental and the world needs him to be hung.
How can anyone rape a two year old? WTF is wrong with someone like that.
Do you have to be completely unhinged to break a baby in two and then rape a two year old?
I'm sorry but I honestly think they should be named and they should be hung. I then think that the people who were in charge of things like this should be hung as well.
I don't buy into the whole `it went under the radar` BS. Somebody knew about it and they should be hung as well.
These people weren't doing their jobs so they pretty much killed baby P themselves.
What I don't understand is they haven't named either the mother of the sick bastard but they have named the lodger. Why. Name the all and hang them all.

Today marks the third anniversary of the demolition of the Uptown Theater and the adjacent Knapp Home. Looking out your window on this cold blustery day, it is hard to believe it was an unusually warm Spring day when a massive backhoe punched a hole in the north wall of the theater. What is even harder to believe is eight months prior to its demolition, the Rolla Business Association strongly recommended �the Uptown Theater be renovated and revived into a discount movie house� as part of a downtown revitalization plan. Perhaps the icing on the cake is the historic theater was demoed for the alumni association of a university who has been internationally recognized as a leader in sustainability. The proposed demolition created an outcry by the students of Missouri S&T and longtime residents of Rolla for the retention and adaptive reuse of the theater. However, the theater was demoed for an alumni house that has yet to be built nor has the funds in place for its construction.

Sunday December 5th Unpaid/Paid Staff Gathering
Colleagues, Friends, Comrades, the paid and unpaid staff, the people who make this station what it is,
We are reaching out to you today because we are going thru a very challenging time here at KPFA and it's time we come together to discuss ways in which we as a collective body of KPFA can move forward. Struggle isn't anything new to Pacifica or here at KPFA but this one at hand is quite alarming. One that we feel should bring us together rather than keep us divided.
The crisis at hand:
KPFA has recently gone thru a third phase of budget cuts that is grossly affecting the daily operations of KPFA. In the past we've survived on a skeleton crew but there are key positions at KPFA that are currently vacant and we are lacking essential guidance and communiqué regarding programming, scheduling, etc. These cuts affects each and everyone of us.
We are currently without a locally produced drive time Morning Show. Pacifica Management is still piping in programs from our sister station at KPFK and our listeners were told this would only last for 10 days: it's now been three weeks. We feel that this is a great disservice to our listeners and would like some direction in this regard.
Our station is facing several lawsuits.
Our station is financially struggling to stay afloat.
Our November fund drive was canceled, no end of the year appeal is being conducted, and we are scheduled to have a fund drive in 3 weeks - nobody knows if this will still happen and or how we will organize to pull it off.
We know there are several grievances between the paid, unpaid and our entire body that represents KPFA that have further divided us. But we also know that we are united by a common core as well, we hope we can all come together to allow space to voice our differences, develop solutions and strategies on how to move forward and remember why we are here to begin with. That is, to create good radio and keep KPFA strong and relevant to our communities.
Please join us this Sunday- December 5th at 6:30-9pm
@ Berkeley Fellowship
1924 Cedar St.
Berkeley CA 94709
Cross street: Cedar and Bonita
We will be joined by Bill Aal co-founder of Toolsforchange.org and his colleague Nell, who will assist us in facilitating this much needed conversation and collective vision for KPFA. We will also need to make a collection to pay for the venue.
We thank you for your time, your work, your passion in keeping our radio station the vital resource it is and hope you will join us.

Although Varsity was completely out- classed By All-Philadelphia an Saturday, November 19, they made a truly valiant effort to conceal that fact. They put up a better fight than the final score of i:�-l would indicate. The event was considerably enlivened by the presence of movie cameras and movie-tone apparatus, and a large and enthusiastic au'diencc. Between halves they were gathered to sing a vociferous "On Varsity" into the microphone, and to "look beautiful"' before the canferas. From the very beginning the game was in the hands of the visitors; after a�few minutes of jockeying back and forth, during which Balch and Hirschherg did their best to give the ball to our for- ' wards, there was a rush, and All-Phila- delphia scored their first goal. Immedi- ately our forwards tried to do the same thing, but Elliott, the opposing goal keeper, was ready, and, after a pretty stop, sent the ball out of danger. Philadelphia Had Advantage of Speed All-Philadelphia's speed, both in run- ning and in hitting, gave them a great advantage. They piled up goal after goal, in spite of Hirschberg's good work in the backfield. Time after time she was the only person between the oncom- ing forwards and the goal, and time after time she proved a formidable Charybdis. Bruere, in the goal, was unprepared for the swiftness with which the ball changed direction; if she expected** on her left, it flashed by on her right, or between her feet. At one time she ran out to meet Cadbury, who passed at just the right moment to Adams�the goal was only saved by the fact that Balch had gone in to take Al's place. Throughout the game Bakh showed great presence of mind, and ability. Toward the end of the first half Var- sity scored its only goal. The ball was rushed past Seeley (who plays just as well on this team as she always did on Varsity), and into the striking circle. There it was kept, with dogged persever- CONTINUBD ON PAGE 5 S. S. Speakers BRYN MAWR DROPS FROM W. I. A. S. G. Five Large Colleges to Form Separate Union fory the East. CONFERENCE AT SMITH Students Tell What Coming Here Has Meant to Them. The first evening entertainment to be held in Goodhart Hall was the Summer School party held there on Saturday eve- ning, November 19. It was a large gath- ering, including not only guests from the college, but also students from several of the private schools. E. Stewart, '28, *was the master of ceremonies, and to her the credit for the success of the evening is due. She in- troduced the first speaker, Miss Hilda Smith, the director of the school. Miss Smith stressed the point that it is not so much the actual two months of study here that is'of value to the girls, but what they do later. After they leave, they have something to work on, and a clearer understanding of present-day problems. Many Summer School stu- dents have been able to help in securing legislative measures for the improvement of industrial conditions. Others are busy organizing classes in their own commu- nities ; and still others have raised money for scholarships. "The workers' educa- tion movement is a growing one," she said, "not only in this country, but all over the world." a Telephone Operator in a Rut The.second speaker was Lucy Liebert, a telephone operator, who had been at the school in 1924, and again last year. She said that she had wanted more edu- cation because life was so dull. "I wai in a rut"; I never heard any new ideas or CONTINUED ON PAGE � (Specially contributed by Josephine Young, '28) It took more than the New England flood to keep the delegates to the Women's Intercollegiate Association for^Student Government Conference at Smith' away from Northampton. Trains might be late and roads blocked, but all of the representatives of �mic seventy odd colleges turned up for the three days' meeting. On November 10 all the delegates met for the first general session, to be greeted officially by Mrs. Scales, the; Warden of the College. President Woolley, of Mt. Holyoke, spoke on "The Realm of Student Government," followed by two student speakers. The other sessions of the conference were arranged in the same way; an outside person of experience and interest spoke, then two or three of the members themselves discussed different aspects of student government. Thus we had varying points of view, and in every case the. discussion and questions after the speeches were lively. The definite 'discusion groups' were not as successful, for it is always difficult to gain anything really valuable in a widely varying group discussing one aspect of a subject upon which all are limited to their own experience. The most valuable gains of the conference came on the one hand from the speeches which presented views of stu- dent government in its larger aspects, and on the other hand from the .small and very informal discussions of par- ticular problems which took place wherever two or three delegates, har- assed by trouble and responsibility at home, came together to talk over their problems. It was this feeling of the value of small conferences that led in part to the big step which was taken at this meeting. . To Support N. S. F. A. Vassar, Smith, Wellesley, Mt.

Q. of 87.8 Has This Fine High Average Group Developed or Is This tfce Limit? � Psychological testing is now extensive- ly used in colleges and, universities throughout the United States as a means of determining the selection of candi- dates for admission to college,'the classi- fication of students according to ability, and for an increasing variety of other purposes. Bu,t as it was stated in a previous issue oi the Cou.kok News our interest in the retesting of Sophomores. Juniors and Seniors of Bryn Mawr College is not for any of these reasons given above but for the purpose of determining the limit of intelligence development. These classes have already taken one Thorn- dike Intelligence examination. The arithmetic "mean of one of these classes was 87.8, which indicated that this group was as line a group of students as had been found in institutions measured by the test at that time. Have these stu- dents continued to develop mentally dur- ing their college course, or did this high score represent their maximum mental growth? That is the question to be de- termined by this second test, namely, does the"-mind cease to mature at sixteen as the Stanford' revision of the Binet- Simon scale implies! or should this doc- trine be abandoned, as Thorndike advo- cates, because there is evidence that abil- ity improved beyond eighteen, at least in the case of individual subject to in- tellectual education ? In order to make the results valuable it will be necessary to have as large a sample of each class as possible.

GENIUS OF SHARP CONTINUED ON PAGB 6 Good Triumphs Through Pain�Cross a Symbol "One of the greatest lessons of life is the fact that* there is no denial or suffering in the world out of which it is imposible to extract reformation," said the Reverend J. R. P. Sclatcr, of Toronto, who spoke in Chapel on Sun- day, November 20. "The trial and death of Jesus may be regarded as an historic event; or as an age-long struggle between Good and Evil in which Good triumphed through untold pain. Christ was crucified be- tween two thieves. The differences in the attitudes of the three men who hung there together is symbolical of Chris- tianity's answer to pain. The Three Crosses "On one side hung the impenitent thief, his face blazing with anger, his whole being contorted with blasphe- mous rage. On the other side was the penitent thief. His face portrayed no semblance of rage. ' He was quiescent save for a gesture of entreaty and ap- peal to the central figure.

This was the theme of Mrs. May Elliott Hobbs' talk on folk-dancing, Friday, November 18. "These three arts have the common basis of rhythm, and in man's earliest artistic attempts they were always combined. In later development, the separation of the three aided their technique, but it was a loss to their spiritual expression. Wagner Wanted Combination "Wagner was the first to foreshadow the combination of the three, but he was unable to create it; there was no dance material available; he saw that the dancing of the French stage was too artificial from both the physical and artistic points of view. Anything cre- ative must be traced back to the folk- dance and folk-music. "The English masque-writers made attempts at the combination, but as they were not interested in the English material, they based their dancing mo- tives on the-affected Italian styles." "Today in England, musicians and writers are co-operating in order to create a new force, through the com- bination of singing, music and the dance, and they are using the material made available by the research of twenty years." Mrs. Hobbs described the situation twenty years ago, when no one real- ized that England had a folk-music. The investigations of Cecil Sharp and others, Tjowever, yielded astonishing CONTINUED ON PAGB 4 Co-operation Between Nations Basis for Adult Education Peter Mannike, who founded the In- ternational Peoples' College at Elsinore in Denmark, told about the start and purpose of this movement in his lec- ture on Thursday evening, November 17. In Denmark adult education and ag- ricultural reform have gone hand in hand. Early in the last century Bishop Gruntvig founded the ".folk, high schools" with the idea that books should not have great importance, but that education should be personal in order to arouse the peasants, against their own wills, to give them mutual self-confidence and a desire to do their best. These schools, while very suc- cessful, appealed only to'the (arming class. Mr. Mannike said that he became interested in the industrial workers and felt that something should Be done for them. Then came the idea of an international college to promote friendship between countries. The col- lege was begun with twenty-four stu- dents while now there arc eighty-five. These students represent different standpoints and different tempera- ments. This difference in tempera- ment creates more difficulties than the difference in languages and it is hard to find a method of instruction which will suit all. The English students want knowledge for practical purposes and don't bother with theories. The Ger- mans are skeptical about the use of knowledge "and want to be inspired with an ideal towards which to work. However these temperamental differ- ences make for advantage even more than for difficulty. The students learn from each other. The Germans con- tribute system; the English practica- OPPOSED TO THE WAR Bertrand Russell is to speak at the collage on Saturday evening, December' in. Mr. Russell has been in the country all fall either speaking or debating. One of his debates was with Will Durant on the subject "Is Democracy a Failure?" He was bom in 1872, and his di- versity of interests was shown early when he took a first in both the mathe- matical tripos and the second part of the moral sciences. He was a lecturer at Cambridge until 1916, when he was dis- missed for having been fined �100 as a "conscientious objector" which he was throughout the war, even going to prison once. He continued to lecture unofficial- ly, and to write. Up to the war, his chief published works were German Social Democracy, Principles of Mathematics, and in collaboration, Principia ^lathe- mat ica. Since the war he has written, among other things, Principles of Social Reconstruction, Mysticism and Logic, and The A. B. C. of Atoms and The A. B. C, of Relativity. After the war, Mr. Russell traveled in Russia and China, as a* result of which he wrote The Theory and Practice of Bolshevism and The Problem of China. Sought a Neo-Realism The Encyclopedia Brittanica in consid- ering Mr. Russell says: "He began to impose upon psychological and meta- physical speculation the order and logic of pure mathematics. As time went on he came to despair of a successful issue and his later work admits that neither mathematics nor idealism can wholly sat- isfy him. Therefore he tried to formu- late a neo-realism. He is a desperate man. loving extremes and too many of his spccufltions are deliberately intended "a epatcr les bourgeois." Contrast with this, the statement of Harry Ilanscn in The New York World in reviewing his recently published Selected Papers of Bertrand Russell pre- pared by himself: "Inasmuch as Russell has trained him- self to write for the general public, and not for cloistered scholars, his papers are easily understood by the layman. In fact, Russell is intensely practical in his thinking, and far from outlining ideal conditions that seem unattainable he is primarily interested in getting to a higher stage of culture by making use of the best in the present system. CONTINUED ON PAGB 4 CONTINUED ON PAGE 5 Wide Field for Reform in Present-Day Politics .The subject of women in politics be- gun by Mrs. Miller last Monday, was continued by Mrs. Manning on No- vember 16. � , "The vocational committee tries every year to have a speaker on this subject who was an alumna of the col- lege," she said.. "Fortunately, this is not hard, as more of our alumnae seem to be distinguished in that line than in any other. Politics present a good opening to a woman with college train- ing. "The intelligent and educated peo- ple of this country are loath to go into politics. In England politics are a family tradition; here too mach unscru- pulousness is involved to make the prospect attractive. Still, there is a wide field for reform, and women of education can do no better than at- tempt to assist in it."^ Body Is Machine Primitive Motion Becomes More Complicated With Development. Animal Mechanism was the subject on which Dr. Ulric Dalhgren, of Princeton, lectured under the auspices of the Science Club on Monday eve- ning, November 21. Dr. Dalhgren introduced to most of us a new point of view from which to regard living organisms. Motion is a very primitive attribute of all living matter, he said, and in the simplest cell organisms consists merely df chemical changes called metabolism. In these simple cells the protoplasm forms pathways and is continually re- volving and interchanging material with the nucleus. In the higher animals this vital factor of motion is still just as important, but is accomplished by more involved means. The primitive form of movement is given up and machines come into play. These higher organisms make use of tools in the movement which inevitably is the importance of life. Lever Principle Uswd.

Content you provide on that blog for syndication to other sites is replicated in part or in full on those domains. |
While these systems make it more convenient to develop and distribute content, they cause some challenges when people use search engines to reach your page. For instance:
- Consolidating link signals for the duplicate or similar content. It helps search engines to be able to consolidate the information they have for the individual URLs (such as links to them) on a single, preferred URL. This means that links from other sites to
get consolidated with links tohttp://www.example.com/dresses/green/greendress.html
. - Tracking metrics for a single product/topic. With a variety of URLs, it's more challenging to get consolidated metrics for a specific piece of content.
- Determining the URL you want people to see. You prefer people reach your green dresses product page via
rather thanhttp://example.com/dresses/cocktail?gclid=ABCD
. - Addressing syndicated content. If you syndicate your content for publication on other domains, you want to consolidate page ranking to your preferred URL.
To address these issues, we recommend you define a canonical URL for content (or equivalent content) available through multiple URLs. You can do this for Google Search in a number of ways:
- Set your preferred domain
- Indicate the preferred URL with the rel="canonical" link element
- Use a sitemap to set preferred URLs for the same content
- Use 301 redirects for URLs that are not canonical
- Indicate how to handle dynamic parameters
- Specify a canonical link in your HTTP header
While we encourage you to use any of these methods, none of them are required. If you don't indicate a canonical URL, we'll identify what we think is the best version or URL.
Don't use the robots.txt
file for canonicalization purposes.
Don't use the URL removal tool for canonicalization: it removes all versions of a URL from search.
Don't specify different URLs as canonical for the same page (e.g. one URL in a sitemap and a different URL for that same page using rel="canonical")
Set your preferred domain
Tell Google which version of your site's URL you prefer for your domain:
If you set your preferred domain as http://example.com
, Google treats links to http://www.example.com
exactly the same as links to http://example.com
Read Set your preferred domain for details.
Indicate the preferred URL with the rel="canonical"
link element
Suppose you want http://blog.example.com/dresses/green-dresses-are-awesome/
to be the preferred URL, even though a variety of URLs can access this content. You can indicate this to search engines as follows:
- Mark up the canonical page and any other variants with a rel="canonical" link element.
Add a<link>
element with the attributerel="canonical"
to the<head>
section of these pages:<link rel="canonical" href="http://blog.example.com/dresses/green-dresses-are-awesome" />
This indicates the preferred URL to use to access the green dress post, so that the search results will be more likely to show users that URL structure. (Note: We attempt to respect this, but cannot guarantee this in all cases.)
link element.Use this structure:
Not this structure:
).Use a sitemap to indicate preferred URLs for the same content
Pick a canonical (preferred) URL for each of your pages, and tell us about your preference by submitting these canonical URLs in a sitemap.
We don't guarantee that we'll use the URLs you submit in a sitemap, but submitting one is a useful way to tell Google about the pages on your site you consider most important.
Use 301 redirects for URLs that are not canonical
Suppose your page can be reached in multiple ways:
It's a good idea to pick one of those URLs as your preferred (canonical) destination, and use 301 redirects to send traffic from the other URLs to your preferred URL. A server-side 301 redirect is the best way to ensure that users and search engines are directed to the correct page. The 301 status code means that a page has permanently moved to a new location.
Indicate how to handle dynamic parameters
Use Parameter Handling to tell Google about any parameters you would like ignored. Ignoring certain parameters can reduce duplicate content in Google's index, and make your site more crawlable. For example, if you specify that the parameter sessionid
should be ignored, Google will consider http://www.example.com/dresses/green.php?sessionid=273749
to be the same as http://www.example.com/dresses/green.php
Specify a canonical link in your HTTP header
If you can configure your server, you can use rel="canonical"
HTTP headers to indicate the canonical URL for HTML documents and other files such as PDFs. Say your site makes the same PDF available via different URLs (for example, for tracking purposes), like this:
http://www.example.com/downloads/white-paper.pdf http://www.example.com/downloads/partner-1/white-paper.pdf http://www.example.com/downloads/partner-2/white-paper.pdf http://www.example.com/downloads/partner-3/white-paper.pdf
In this case, you can use a rel="canonical"
HTTP header to specify to Google the canonical URL for the PDF file, as follows:
Link: <http://www.example.com/downloads/white-paper.pdf>; rel="canonical"
Google currently supports these link header elements for Web Search only.

User Comments: a 20 minute lecture stretched out into 2 hours with irrelevant fluff. Badly laid out, full of anecdotes that are so long you forget how they relate (do they?) Outright SHITTY audio.
User Comments: There was a lot of great information in this webinar I just wish I could have had a PDF file of the information for future reference.
User Comments: excellent webinar.
User Comments: Poor audio quality, hard to pay attention
User Comments:
INFORMATION WAS AMAZING! I TOOK TONS OF NOTES. THE QUIZ WAS REALLY CONFUSING THOUGH. i HAD A HARD TIME FIGURING OUT WHAT THEY'D ASKED FOR. EVEN THOUGH I LOVED THE INFORMATION, I MISSED QUITE A FEW. I STILL PASSED, BUT IT DOES NOT SHOW ME WHAT THE RIGHT ANSWER IS.
ACE RESPONSE: Thank you for the feedback! After you submit the quiz, you can then review your results and the correct and incorrect answer options. Please do not hesitate to contact us for help with navigating the course quiz, we would be happy to help you! 1-800-825-3636
User Comments: It should be worth more than .2 CECs... It is very detailed. Great lecture.
Lots of good information. I wish they had more pictures of the exercises. Seemed really long for the small amount of credit given.
ACE Response: Thank you for the great feedback! Have fun implementing it into your training!
User Comments: Great course it definitely made you think things out. i am by no means a (book smart person) but taking this class and having video and being able to go back and replay some of the video really helped.
The information in this webinar was good....but I absolutely hate just having the webinar and no way to download a PDF or PP to read along with it. It's hard to take 2 hours of material, try to figure out what's really important and then not have anything to reference later. Please...provide a handout with every single webinar. Not everyone learns best by just listening.
ACE Response: Thank you for the feedback! We will look into providing a handout with future webinars.
This was an outstanding course. Peter McCall is very knowledgeable and does an excellent job explaining all of the necessary details to prepare a safe and effective sports conditioning workout program. I have a decent amount of experience in the area of sports conditioning and performance training and I definitely consider Peter McCall an expert in this field. Anyone who is looking to improve his or her knowledge of this area of training should definitely take this course.
ACE RESPONSE: Thank you for this great feedback. We are so thrilled you enjoyed the course. Happy coaching!
User Comments: Good information but disappointed the Powerpoint was not downloadable to be used for future reference.
User Comments: Very informative. Easy to follow.
User Comments: This is a great companion to the Sports Conditioning Workshop. In the Workshop we learned how to perform the speed, agility and quickness drills. The webinar teaches how to design a workout using the drills.
User Comments: Very good presenter and information.
User Comments: Audio quality very poor.
User Comments: With only a PPT and auditory learning, notes are the only way to stay on top of instruction which doubles the time to comprehend.
User Comments: Mostly review for performance training but I could be bias because I tend to focus in that area of study anyways. Good review though with example exercises for anyone looking to develop a training program.
User Comments: Good information and very scientific. A bit long but I definitely learned a lot from it.
User Comments: This course was alright, the audio recording itself was not so great but was probably compressed to save space. The information given is mostly great but some of it is slow and repetitive.
User Comments: The information was very pertinent and he provided many great examples of workout regimens, exercises, etc.
User Comments: The webinar was incredibly well designed. Nothing in there was news for me, but I already have in-depth knowledge and experience in sport conditioning. For the average ACE PT without a background in kinesiology, it should be very educational.
User Comments: A copy of the powerpoint would be useful to have. As it stood, I had to copy all of the images of the slides on OneNote. It was a minor inconvenience. Also, the presentation has a number of typos in it. Overall, it is a good class that is very informative, but it is taught from a group fitness mentality. It would have been interesting to see ideas for incorporating it into a personal trainer's 1 on 1 sessions
User Comments: i was unable to open the course content despite many many emails to ted ruch. i eventually spoke to a a lady named Julia Valentour who attempted to assist by explaining the course was on a webex programme and that there were time zones that needed to be changed. i went onto the webex site and followed steps to resolve why i keep getting a URL is invalid error and after doing what was explained i STILL could not open the course content. in all the years i have been with ace i have never had so much difficulty accessing a course and must say i have not gotten much help. i attempted the quiz without seeing the course content - because i was so frustrated - and of course did not pass it - and now it seems i cant retake the quiz!! please help me as i would very much like to re-certify but seem to keep coming up against brick walls! i have used DSW courses in the past and never had any problems with them. ana batista
User Comments: Great for web acces better with outline of program.

E.g. use hipKey to keep your running child in range or to protect your camera bag when your hipKey is placed inside it. Or what about monitoring a sleeping child or using hipKey as a door alarm with its motion sensor. The possibilities are endless.
NB: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Many researches from weight loss and medical experts alike have been able to conclude that green tea does indeed help with losing weight. However, note that green tea is only intended to help with your diet. Green tea alone will not let you lose weight.
Did you know that green tea is the healthiest beverage that you could ever consume? It has plenty of antioxidants that aid in detoxification and that can also help with avoiding many illnesses such as heart disease, diabetes and cancer. A single cup of green tea already rewards you of potent biological effects. For example, the polyphenolic antioxidant component of green tea contains anticarcinogenic components that aid in lowering your risk for many kinds of cancers.
Another component that makes green tea help you lose weight is its caffeine content that has shown to have fat burning components. In addition to this, having some caffeine in your system helps you improve your performance whenever you are exercising. But more than this, green tea contains a heap of antioxidants called cathechins or ECCG (Epicallocatechin gallate) that boosts your metabolism.
Mobilizing Fat from Fat Cells
Before your body can burn fat, it needs to be broken down as a fat cell and it needs to be transported into the bloodstream. If you drink green tea, your body will make this process faster so that it can inhibit the production of fat burning hormones. The component of green tea that helps with this is the antioxidant or ECCG. ECCG increases and expedites the production of norepinephrine, a hormone that sends signals to the nervous system regarding the fat breaking process.
Green Tea and Exercise
If you have fitness and work out plan, it will benefit you a lot to drink green tea before your work out so that you can burn fat cells faster. There is a study that showed that men who drank green tea before their work out were able to burn 17% more fat during exercise compared to those who didn't. This need not be hot green tea. You can chill the freshly brewed tea for a bit if you are more comfortable in consuming a cold drink before exercise. The Fresh Fitness personal trainers in Calgary like the idea of tea to enhance workouts that they've actually set up a cold tea bar in the gym! Moreover, green tea also increases your metabolic rate. So it's like saying that you are a fat burning machine once you have consumed a glass. Need help on the exercise? Look to hire a personal trainer!
Green Tea Extract
Although green tea us most popular for being consumed as a hot drink, there are many other ways on how you can ingest it. One is by cooling it first or adding some ice. If the flavor gets too boring for you, then you can add some honey or lemon to taste. But make sure that the honey you use is unprocessed and pure. Another popular means of taking green tea that has grown popularity over the past few years is through green tea extracts. This extract is usually in the form of a pill or a capsule. If you opt to intake green tea through this form, you must ask the advice of a health professional before doing so because you need to know how much you can take in a day in order to benefit your weight loss goals.
