The City of Saint Paul is currently contracted with Eureka Recycling to pick up residential recycling. You can pick up a free recycling bin from our office, see below for details. Recyclables should be place in the blue bins and set out on the street curb by 7:00 a.m. every Thursday. All recycling in the Hamline Midway area is currently picked up each Thursday.
Single Sort Recycling
Residents can put all recycling materials into one bin – separating is no longer required!
Plastics Accepted: Most #1, #2, #4, #5 and #7 plastics are now recyclable! In addition to plastic bottles, yogurt, butter and produce containers, transparent deli and "to go" containers can also be recycled with Saint Paul's residential recycling program. Visit stpaul.gov/recycle for a complete list of acceptable materials.
Six Community Cleanup Events
In conjunction with District Councils, the City is coordinating six separate "Community Cleanup Events" in 2015. These events will give residents an opportunity to dispose of items such as furniture and construction materials and recycle items like mattresses, appliances, electronics and scrap metal. Plus, residents may donate usable household items for reuse. All residents of St. Paul are welcome at any of the cleanup events. Date, time and location information is available at stpaul.gov/comeclean.

How many credit cards do we need, really? Given the digital era we live in as well as the vast availability of countless advertisements, promotions, special deals and offers from banks – how many cards are really enough?
Truth be told, the precise number is up to you and you alone because we are all different, have countless diverse needs and whatnot. Given you know how to choose your plastic – you are free with your choices as long as you have the required minimum. Everyone should possess the minimum of five cards. I will explain why shortly.
But before that, I've just touched the juicy topic of choosing the best fitting plastic model. All I can say is that effectify.comcredit card service should be enough. This resource is downright brilliant at highlighting both the string sides as well as weaknesses of all the major credit card "brands".
Now that that's done, let us proceed, shall we?
The five card rule
Why do we need a minimum of five cards? Here's a clear and definitive explanation:
- The fist card is used for travels. It can lie around untouched for a while, but when you choose to book a flight or hotel – it's irreplaceable. That noted, with a travel-fit card, you can even withdraw cash in an ATM of a foreign country without paying a cent of commission. In certain cases this approach can reduce the price of the entire trip down to 20-40%!
- The second one is used for withdrawing cash in an ATM, but at home. The commission will be lower and you won't be obligated to pay the bank a % of your hard earned money for something as simple as the benefit of holding them in your own hands. This way also saves up to 20% of your incomes in the long run if you are a diehard fan of cash.
- The third card should be used for cashless payments as well as money back offers. A lot of stores and banks support cash back programs that return 5-20% of what you have spent to your account after the purchase. The store is later refunded by the bank but that's not the matter here. What matters is that you get some money back for something as simple as hopping and it takes a separate card.
- The fourth one is used for online shopping because of, well, the deals. It should have a lower commission for these kids of transfers for you to gain even more benefits.
- The fifth card is used to manage cash flows between the rest. Not all of them will be from the same bank and if you are willing to transfer money into your cards through digital means – you need to reduce the commission as well.
I hope that information was of use to you! Try not to spend too much.

In brief: Governor's wife files for divorce
Sat., Dec. 12, 2009
Charleston, S.C.– South Carolina's first lady, a former Wall Street vice president who helped launch her husband's political career, filed for divorce Friday more than five months after his tearful public confession of an affair with an Argentine woman.
"This came after many unsuccessful efforts at reconciliation, yet I am still dedicated to keeping the process that lies ahead peaceful for our family," Jenny Sanford said in a statement.
The governor blamed himself and said he and Jenny will "work earnestly to be the best mom and dad we can be to four of the finest boys on Earth."
Court halts cuts to ACORN funding
New York – The U.S. government's move this fall to cut off funding to ACORN was unconstitutional, a federal judge ruled Friday, handing the embattled group a legal victory.
U.S. District Judge Nina Gershon issued the preliminary injunction against the government, saying it's in the public's interest for the organization to continue receiving federal funding.
ACORN claimed in its lawsuit that Congress' decision to cut off its funding was unconstitutional because it punitively targeted an individual organization.
ACORN, or the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, describes itself as an advocate for low-income and minority homebuyers and residents in communities served by its offices around the country. Critics say it has violated the tax-exempt status of some of its affiliates by engaging in partisan political activities.
The law that halted ACORN's federal funding took effect Oct. 1 and was extended Oct. 31. It was set to either expire or be extended again on Dec. 18.
Elderly woman is murder suspect
New Bedford, Mass. – A 98-year-old woman was indicted Friday on a second-degree murder charge that alleges she strangled her 100-year-old nursing home roommate after making the victim's life "a living hell" because she thought the woman was "taking over the room."
Laura Lundquist was sent to a state mental hospital for a competency evaluation before her arraignment. Her defense attorney, Carl Levin, said she has a "long-standing diagnosis of dementia, as well as issues of cognitive impairment."
She is believed to be the oldest murder defendant in state history, but might never go to trial because of her mental health issues.
Her roommate at the Brandon Woods nursing home in Dartmouth, Elizabeth Barrow, was found dead in her bed Sept. 24 with a plastic bag tied around her head. Police initially speculated it was a suicide, but a medical examiner ruled it a homicide after an autopsy indicated strangulation.

5. Leave us not forget "Hey Jude."
6. And "Helter Skelter," which rocks so ferociously that Charlie Manson appropriated it as a soundtrack to murder.

14. He was smart enough not to trust Allen Klein.
15. He may be the best, most melodically gifted pop bass player I've ever heard.
16. For proof, listen to the bass solo on "Michelle."
17. Bassist Glen Matlock was reportedly kicked out of the Sex Pistols due to his fondness for Paul McCartney.

15. He stole Little Richard's vocal shtick and never gave him proper credit.
16. He can't sing "Hey Jude" anymore. But that doesn't stop him from trying.
17. He has steadfastly refused all interview requests with me for the past 20 years, as have all other former Beatles. Bungholes.

19. In his old age, "The Cute Beatle" now looks exactly like John McGiver (you know, the old character-actor guy who played the religious nut in Midnight Cowboy), making me painfully aware of my own mortality.

UM Geologists To Address Mystery of An Evolution Gap In Reef Corals
NSF funds UM project to study the evolution of corals along the southern coast of the Dominican Republic
March 13, 2013
MIAMI -- March 11, 2013 – One of the greatest mysteries of modern coral reefs is how they evolved from ancient corals. A critical knowledge gap has long existed in the record of coral evolution. This evolutionary gap occurs during a period of dramatic fluctuations in sea level and changes in the Earth's climate between 1 and 2 million years ago. During this period many "old" corals went extinct, and the modern reef corals emerged. To fill this key temporal gap and understand the evolutionary and ecological transition to modern Caribbean reefs, the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) has funded a University of Miami (UM) project to study corals along the southern coast of the Dominican Republic. It is one of the few areas that contain a record of coral reefs from this period of climatic change.
"Our preliminary fieldwork has indicated that the Dominican Republic contains rocks that bridge this critical reef evolution gap," said James Klaus, lead investigator and assistant professor in the Department of Geological Sciences, at the UM College of Arts and Sciences. "The Dominican Republic is a valuable site because it was submerged for a long period of time, and has now been uplifted to make the coral-rich deposits accessible."
The NSF grant is $250,000 for two years. During that time, the team will work to pinpoint the evolutionary transition from the now extinct coral Stylophora, to modern reefs dominated by the genus Acropora (staghorn and elkhorn corals) and evaluate how reef ecosystems respond to climate change.
"These corals work in concert to construct the reef edifice, and just below the living surface form the underlying limestone rock," says co-investigator Ali Pourmand, assistant professor in the Division of Marine Geology & Geophysics, at the UM Rosenstiel School of Marine & Atmospheric Science. "To geologists and paleontologists, these limestones represent just the latest growth, and what lies beneath may provide clues to both the past and future of coral reefs."
Fundamental to the study is the ability to tell the ages of the corals. To help with this age assessment, the team will utilize a recently established geochemical laboratory that couples a laser sampling device and mass spectrometer to produce high-precision age dates of the corals.
"Being able to tell time in these rocks is our biggest challenge," says Donald McNeill, co-investigator of the project and senior scientist in the Division of Marine Geology and Geophysics, at the Rosenstiel School. "We need to put the evolutionary changes in a time context to link them with sea level and climate changes that were happening both locally and globally."
The research team will develop an integrated model of coral reef development for the critical time gap that includes the controlling factors of climate change, sea level, tectonics, and the maximum growth rate of dominant reef builders. The findings will provide a valuable record of tropical climates and the growth of coral reefs.

Finally in Lille, capital of Flandres! After Paris it is the biggest city close to me and as Paris I was not interested in it. I regret to didn't been before because I had to visit it with a warm coat during a hot day.
Informations about Lille
The northern capital of France, Lille has a strong personnality. The fourth-largest metropolitan area has a huge history. Called the French Flanders capital, Lille has a record: it's the city which was the most besiege of France.
During the time the city was Flemish, Spanish or Burgundian. In 1940 the city is overtake by Nazi and is attached to Brussels while the rest of France follow the Vichy government. This separation is also visible by the fact that the area was considered as a « forbidden area ». British gave freedom in september 1944.
Commercial before, it is now a dynamic industrial pole and represents now a remarquable place in the European commerce between United Kingdom, Benelux and France.
Among the famous personality I can tell the General Charles de Gaulle, Louis Pasteur and Albert Samain.

10 Pieces of Technology You Should Invest in This Year
You're looking to take your business to the next level this year. But do you have the right technologies in place to make this year your best yet?
Technology can make your business more efficient, help you get organized, and create a better environment for both customers and employees.
Here are the 10 tools you absolutely need to invest in this year.
1. Chip card and mobile payments reader
A "no chip cards yet" sign on your POS isn't going to cut it. It's 2017 — almost everyone has chip cards, and you need a point of sale that can accept them ASAP. When you upgrade, make sure you get one that also accepts mobile payments (like Apple Pay, Android Pay, and Samsung Pay).
Mobile payments are the fastest, most convenient, and secure way to pay. And they're going to take off this year. Square's NFC Reader accepts both chip cards and mobile payments and is just $49.
Accept chip cards and Apple Pay everywhere.
Order the Square contactless and chip reader.Order your reader now
2. Mobile-optimized website and online store
No one has patience anymore for a website that's not optimized for mobile. If yours doesn't work like a charm on all devices, it's likely you're losing tons of customers (not to mention getting dinged in search results).
It should be as simple as possible for customers to browse items, add them to the cart, and then check out on their mobile devices. This takes just seconds on Amazon — if it takes much longer on your business's website, customers will bounce.
3. Analytics and business intelligence (BI) tools
Smart small businesses will heavily rely on data and analytics this year to make important decisions about everything from marketing strategies to staffing. Square Analytics, which is hooked up to the transaction data from your Square POS, has a wealth of information to help: things like historical sales reports, your busiest times of the day, and how many new versus returning customers you're bringing in. You should review this information constantly to adjust strategies and compete.
4. CRM (customer relationship management) software
A robust CRM — most critically, one that includes email marketing software that slices and dices your lists — is now a must-have. That's because consumers are tired of mass-blasted messages and prefer more personalized, curated content. We've seen this with Square's Email Marketing Service, where happy birthday messages have by far the highest clickthrough rate of email sent through the system.
5. Remote working tools
Offering the ability to work remotely not only helps with recruiting and retaining top talent, studies show it actually improves team productivity. In 2017, integrate technologies that make it easy for employees to manage their job from anywhere. Here's a list of essential ones.
6. Inventory management software
As omnichannel retail becomes the expected norm, a seamless experience between online and brick-and-mortar stores is essential. To accomplish this, you need robust inventory management software.
There are a number of excellent solutions in Square App Marketplace that help sync in-store and online inventory in real time, reducing merchandising snafus.
7. Employee management software
Keeping track of your staff's schedules on a paper calendar is needlessly messy and complicated. Square App Marketplace now features employee management software solutions that let you manage schedules and track time straight from your mobile device, making everyone's lives easier.
8. Loyalty software program
Sixty-eight percent of millennials say they would change where they shopped if it meant getting more perks. Stay attractive to this generation by implementing a customer loyalty program.
With Square Loyalty, you can grant stars based on visits or the amount spent, and offer custom rewards that make sense for your business. The program integrates with your customer and sales data, allowing you to track key metrics and the impact on your bottom line.
9. Payroll software
Payroll is something you don't want to mess up. Yet, unfortunately, it's easy to make mistakes when you're doing it manually. That's why as your business expands this year, payroll software is critical. Designed for both hourly and salaried employees, Square Payroll handles your federal and state payroll taxes including withholdings, payments, and filings.
10. Free Wi-Fi
Wherever you are, it's really frustrating when pages take ages to load. And if you're a cafe or coffee shop, not offering Internet could even be a deterrent for regular customers (it's a criteria that's searchable on Yelp, after all).
So invest in free Wi-Fi this year. To mitigate the problem of people posting up for hours without buying anything, add signs that politely ask customers to purchase items every two hours.

This article is about Bowser's appearance in Super Smash Bros. Riot. For the character in general, see Bowser.
|Bowser (SSBR)
|Super Mario
|Smash Appearances
| Super Smash Bros. Melee
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U
|Official Debut
|Super Mario Bros. (1985)
|Final Smash
|Deathfire Grasp
|Home Stage
|Airship Armada
Bowser (クッパ, Kuppa) is the main villain of the Super Mario series, and appears in almost all of the games with such role. He is the King of the Koopas, and has a great troop of enemies that he commands to cause trouble in the Mushroom Kingdom. While Bowser uses various different plans, most of them always involve kidnapping Princess Peach.
Bowser is still one of the most powerful characters in Riot, possessing a moveset full of potential finishers, several of which can even reliably KO under 100%. Along with his trademark power, Bowser is still the heaviest character, with strong momentum cancelling to complement it, giving Bowser one of the best endurance potentials in Riot. Additionally, Bowser has a great aerial grab in Flying Slam, that also gives him access to the Koopa hopping technique to improve his mobility and approach, along with great reach throughout his moveset.
Bowser is still one of the slowest characters, and he can have a difficult time keeping up with several characters. He is also still one of the largest characters, which combines with his massive weight to make him very vulnerable to combos and chain throws, some of which are infinite or a zero-death. Additionally, Bowser possesses a recovery that can be easily interrupted and gains barely any vertical height, and he lacks an effective projectile.
Ground attacks
- Neutral attack - Bowser quickly jabs forward with one arm, then quickly follows it up with the other.
- Dash attack - A dashing side kick, where Bowser leaps forward while kicking sideways with one leg.
- Forward tilt - Bowser performs a backhanded punch while leaning his body forward.
- Up tilt - Bowser swats the air above him with a clenched fist.
- Down tilt - While crouching, Bowser quickly punches one arm forward along the ground, then quickly follows it up with the other.
Smash Attacks
- Forward smash - Bowser jumps forward with both feet outstretched.
- Up smash - Bowser gets down on all fours and thrusts his spiked shell upwards while spinning.
- Down smash - Bowser spins with his claws exposed, able to damage both vertically and horizontally with better reach.
Aerial attacks
- Neutral aerial - Bowser spins vertically with his limbs outstretched.
- Forward aerial - Bowser slashes forward in a diagonal arc.
- Back aerial - Bowser kicks behind with both legs outstretched.
- Up aerial - Bowser thrusts his head upwards in a quick swiping motion.
- Down aerial - Bowser retracts into his shell, turns upside down, and propels himself downward.
Grabs and throws
- Forward throw - Bowser places the opponent on the floor and body slams them.
- Back throw - Holding onto the opponent with one arm, Bowser throws them backwards in a sideways motion.
- Up throw - Bowser tosses foe upwards, retreats into his shell, and spins, damaging the foe with his spikes.
- Down throw - Bowser places the opponent on the floor and body slams them.
- Aerial Grab: Bowser grabs his opponent with his claws in mid-air, and slashes them with his claws as they fall, falling on them with his shell pointing downwards when landing.
Special Moves
- Neutral special - Fire Breath: Bowser breathes intensive fire that gradually gets weaker.
- Custom 1 - Fire Shot: Bowser fires a large fireball with noticeable startup lag that goes through opponents. Unlike Fire Breath, it will not weaken over time when used in rapid succession.
- Custom 2 - Fire Roar: Stronger than Bowser's Fire Breath, but loses range quickly and takes longer to recharge.
- Side special - Flying Slam: Bowser grabs an opponent, jumps with them into the air, and thrusts himself downward opponent-first, dealing immense vertical knockback.
- Custom 1 - Dash Slam: Bowser dashes forward (increasing it's range) and slams someone with less vertical distance at the cost of damage. Inflicts horizontal knockback instead of vertical knockback.
- Custom 2 - Dash Slash: Bowser dashes forward and slashes opponents instead of grabbing them, dealing high knockback. Similar to the Koopa Klaw.
- Up special - Whirling Fortress: Bowser enters his shell and spins rapidly, being able to move forward and backwards while doing so. It acts as a recovery when performed in the air, propelling Bowser forward and upwards, but Bowser remains grounded when he performs it on the ground.
- Custom 1 - Sliding Fortress: Increased horizontal distance, but only hits once, inflicts less knockback, and has longer end lag.
- Custom 2 - Koopa Clown Car: Summons the Koopa Clown Car as it flies upwards quickly. It's a more vertical recovery. Only hits once, but launch foes that are hit.
- Down special - Bowser Bomb: Bowser leaps into the air, hitting any opponents up with him in the vicinity of the leap, and then thrusts his body downwards in a ground pound motion, dealing immense vertical knockback to anyone hit. If performed in the air, Bowser thrusts down immediately instead of leaping first.
- Custom 1 - Turbulent Bomb: A gale at the move's impact pushes away anyone next to Bowser's landing spot, but removes the shockwave hitbox and inflicts less knockback.
- Custom 2 - Slip Bomb: Makes those standing near Bowser trip when he lands. However, it deals no damage when rising.
- Riot Move - Koopa Klaw: Does the same as in Melee (slashing his claw forwards and grabbing his victim) but he quickly throws them dealing high knockback, without bitting them first.
- Final Smash - Deathfire Grasp: Replaces Giga Bowser from the other games. Bowser launches lava flames uncontrollably, highly damaging opponents from afar. Bowser is also in flames, and explodes after the Final Smash ends, turning him into Dry Bowser
As Bowser:
- Moves his head back and roars.
- Snaps furiously forwards.
- Punches his fists together as he laughs evilly.
As Dry Bowser:
- Breaks and then reconstructs himself briefly after.
- Does jugglery with bones.
- Snaps furiously, but in different directions.
On-Screen Appearance
- 1st Entrance: Emerges from a wall of flames.
- 2nd Entrance: Lands from a chain, coming from an Airship.
Dry Bowser's entrances are the same, but emerges from blue flames in the 1st entrance.
An rock remix of the victory fanfare from Super Mario Bros. plays while he does one of the following animations:
- Steps forward, builds up a little and roars.
- Spins around in his shell and comes out laughing.
- Takes two steps forward while swiping with his claws twice
As Dry Bowser:
- Throws bones as he steps forwards, then roars.
- Moves his heads as he breathes blue fire.

- Red: Yellow hair, red shell, dark yellow body and red spikes collars. Based upon red Koopa Troopas.
- Black: Dark red hair, black shell, dark brown body and black spikes collars with gold spikes.
- Green: Red hair, light green shell, green body and red spiked collars. Based on an alternate costume in Mario Golf, as well as Bowser's color in Super Mario World and the DiC cartoons.
- Brown: Dark orange hair, red shell, dark yellow body and silver spikes collars. Based upon Boom Boom.
- Pink: Light yellow hair, magenta shell, pink body and green collars. Based upon Pom Pom.
- Light Orange: Lighter coloration. Unique to Smash.
- Blue: Black hair, blue shell, dark blue body and black collars. Based upon Dark Bowser.
Alternate Form
- Dry Bowser: While Bowser doesn't have an alternate costume, he has an alternate form. The player can start matches with Dry Bowser if they want, and select Dry Bowser's alternate palette as well. Bowser can turn into Dry Bowser after using his Final Smash, and Dry Bowser can return to Bowser by doing the same. Dry Bowser is lighter, quickier in both attacking and moving, has better aerial combat and better recovery, but is much weaker than Bowser and can be knocked more easily than him.

Alright this is simple, and probably common sense to some, but I thought it was worth a quick entry for anyone scratching their heads.
YouTube spits out this bit if you want to share or embed a video:

Both the frameborder and allowfullscreen attributes are what make this code invalid according to the W3C.

Although I don't recommend using inline styles (I recommend the style be placed in your stylesheet), by removing the two invalid attributes and using a style in its place I now have W3C valid code… AND I have better control over the iframe as well. The allowfullscreen attribute does nothing since the full-screen button is in the play bar. Notice I also moved the size of the iframe into the style as well. With many videos on a page and a single stylesheet this method will end up saving you a lot of work anyhow.
Why YouTube doesn't do this by default though goes beyond me.

Proper conditioning doesn't just make your dog stronger, it makes your dog more sensitive to the amount of muscle contraction necessary to move most efficiently. Without conditioning, your dog will only be able to perform as well as they've learned to while participating in their sport or life activity. Continue reading The Need For Canine Conditioning

Your Dog Doesn't Want To Be Fat
Overweight dogs don't choose to be that way. Sure they eat when given food but they don't know the ramifications of doing so when done in excess. The responses from owners when talking about how much they overfeed their dogs are "He acts hungry", or "He really likes to eat". This can be frustrating because many owners act as if they can't deny their dog something that it enjoys so much.
The Problem With Canine Conditioning
Canine conditioning as it is generally practiced is not really geared toward canine athletic performance. There are a lot of great exercises that ultimately will not translate to improved performance or injury prevention because the execution will never advance beyond a dog simply going through the motion of the exercises. That's because the overwhelming majority of canine conditioning exercises never move beyond their canine rehabilitation roots. Continue reading The Problem With Canine Conditioning
8 Reasons To Exercise Your Dog In A Pool
At The Martial ARFS™ we use our pool for a variety of water based exercises that go well beyond swimming. We call them Open Water Exercises (OWE) or Aquatic Conditioning, and you can have your dog perform them in a pool or any other open body of water. The purpose of Open Water Exercise is to incorporate a variety of exercises into a canine athlete or a companion dog's conditioning program that use water to provide resistance, buoyancy, instability, challenge, and/or safety.

More Than Canine "Core" Conditioning.
In my intro post, I wrote that the foundation to conditioning was based on functional strength and how to build it. But we can't use that concept as a foundation to conditioning our dogs if we don't know what conditioning means. Sure we can copy what someone else does, but we have no idea if that is what we should be doing for our dog.
When I trained people, I was taught "The Core", in short, were the muscles that stabilize, flex, extend, and rotate the spine. A weak core will usually be the result of a sedentary lifestyle and most likely result in lower back issues now or in the future, along with poor and inefficient athletic movement.

"Fightin' Fido's Fat"
Martial "ARFS" Dog Gym Helps Owners "Fight Fido's Fat" For The New Year
Long Island NY. January 5, 2015 –The Martial "ARFS", Long Island's only "Dog Gym", is helping dogs (and owners) lose weight, improve health, and burn off excess energy this New Year (and all year long!).
Gyms, Martial Arts Classes, Zumba Studios, and others provide a place for people to "fight the fat". What about our pets? According to the latest (2013) Pet Obesity Prevention Survey more than 54% of our furry family members are overweight. The Martial ARFS™ veterinary adviser Dr. Eve Pugh states, "As a veterinarian, I see a multitude of pet ailments related to obesity and a sedentary lifestyle. Conditions like heart disease, osteoarthritis, high blood pressure, and cancer can all be attributed to having an overweight pet. Even worse, on average, an overweight pet can have a decreased life expectancy up to 2.5 years. Dr. Eve Pugh continues, "Simply taking longer walks is often ineffective and sometimes weather prohibitive, especially in the cold winter months."

By Jeris Pugh (Owner, Martial ARFS™).
At The Martial ARFS™ Dog Training & Fitness Center we incorporate stability equipment into every thing that we do. Do you want your dog to listen better? Get on the stability equipment. Do you want your dog to do agility? Get on the stability equipment. Do you have a crazy hyper puppy? Get on the stability equipment. The reasons why we train this way is beyond the scope of this review, but it is what we do. However, I am always looking to integrate a variety of stability challenge pieces of equipment in a multitude of configurations to the curriculum.

Neil Armstrong, the first man on the Moon, has launched an unprecedented attack on President Obama's plans to dismantle Nasa's manned space exploration program – a move that will result in the loss of thousands of jobs.
The world's best-known astronaut, who has traditionally avoided controversy and rarely seeks the limelight despite his feat 41 years ago, warned that Mr Obama risks blasting American space superiority on a "long downhill slide to mediocrity."
The decision to cancel Constellation, the project to send astronauts to the Moon again by 2020 and Mars by 2030, was "devastating", Mr Armstrong said in a powerful open letter to the President.
"America's only path to low Earth orbit and the International Space Station will now be subject to an agreement with Russia to purchase space on their Soyuz – at a price of over $50 million per seat with significant increases expected in the near future – until we have the capacity to provide transportation for ourselves," he said in the letter, which was also signed by Gene Cernan, the last man on the Moon, and Jim Lovell, commander of the ill-fated Apollo 13 mission in 1970.
"It appears that we will have wasted our current $10-plus billion investment in Constellation and, equally importantly, we will have lost the many years required to recreate the equivalent of what we will have discarded."
He adds: "For The United States, the leading space-faring nation for nearly half a century, to be without carriage to low Earth orbit and with no human exploration capability to go beyond Earth orbit for an indeterminate time into the future, destines our nation to become one of second or even third-rate stature.
"While the President's plan envisages humans traveling away from Earth and perhaps toward Mars at some time in the future, the lack of developed rockets and spacecraft will assure that ability will not be available for many years. "Without the skill and experience that actual spacecraft operation provides, the USA is far too likely to be on a long downhill slide to mediocrity.
"America must decide if it wishes to remain a leader in space. If it does, we should institute a programme which will give us the very best chance of achieving that goal."
Mr Armstrong's letter was one of two issued yesterday, both representing a major embarrassment for the President as he prepares to visit the Kennedy Space Centre in Florida tomorrow to defend his proposal to pull the plug on Constellation as part of a "bold new course" for Nasa.
In a separate appeal to the White House, 27 other retired astronauts, flight directors and former Nasa officials – including three more of the 12 men to have walked on the moon and some of the most distinguished figures in space history – complain that Mr Obama is setting Nasa on a course that is "wrong for our country" and "misguided".
"For those of us who have accepted the risk and dedicated a portion of our lives to the exploration of outer space, this is a terrible decision," they state.
"America's greatness lies in her people: she will always have men and women willing to ride rockets into the heavens. America's challenge is to match their bravery and acceptance of risk with specific plans and goals worthy of their commitment," they added, estimating that up to 30,000 "irreplaceable engineers and managers" would be lost to the space industry after the shuttle retires later this year or early next if its successor is cancelled.
"One of the greatest fears of any generation is not leaving things better for the young people of the next. In the area of human space flight, we are about to realise that fear.
"Nasa's human space programme has inspired awe and wonder in all ages by pursuing the American tradition of exploring the unknown. We strongly urge you to drop this misguided proposal that forces Nasa out of human space operations for the foreseeable future." TIMES ONLINE

Artist Bio: J. Meejin Yoon, born in Seoul, Korea, is an architect, designer, and educator who fuses architectural practice with new media. She received a Bachelor of Architecture from Cornell University, and went on to complete a Masters of Architecture in Urban Design from Harvard University Graduate School of Design. She founded MY Studio in 2000, and has now combined forces with the architect, Eric Höweler, whom she founded Höweler + Yoon Architecture with in 2005 (Principals). According to her firm's profile, "Höweler + Yoon Architecture / MY Studio is a multidisciplinary practice, operating in the space between architecture, art, and landscape. They believe in an embodied experience of architecture, seeing media as material and its effects as palpable elements of architectural speculation" (Firm Profile). Yoon's individual and collaborative projects have won numerous awards and accolades, and her work has been recognized for, "its innovative and interdisciplinary nature" (MIT Profile). Yoon has been commissioned to create site-specific works in a diverse locations and spaces, but she also devotes her time to education and research. Presently, she is Director of the undergraduate program within the Department of Architecture at MIT, and she has taught at the Graduate Level Architecture Design Studios at MIT for the past 10 years.
In these videos of Meejin Yoon's piece, Windscreen (2011), we see a public installation that reacts to the weather conditions of its surroundings. In this footage, wind visibly and audibly affects the custom-made wind turbines that comprise the multi-level piece. Yoon is taking wind, an abstract and invisible power, and visualizing its force through LED lighting. This temporary installation was placed on the facade of Building 54 on MIT's campus during a festival the institute hosted for the 150th anniversary of its founding, and was made in collaboration with a team of MIT students.
Yoon's piece offers a beautiful spectacle to be sure, but she is also inviting her audience to think about wind as an environmental resource – one that is largely untapped. These small turbines that comprise Windscreen are solely dependent on wind for power, thereby making her piece an artistic display, as well as scientific one. Yoon and her team of collaborators (architecture, visual arts, and mechanical engineering students from MIT) are making a statement about energy consumption and environmental stewardship through Windscreen. Simultaneously, they are presenting a piece that embodies the opportunities alternative energy resources provide. In Windscreen, Yoon gracefully combines high and low technology – her lantern-like turbines combine delicate, simple engineering with LED lighting and scientific principles used to harness natural forces for energy.

Best Jogging Strollers for Toddlers 2016
As your little one grows from infant to toddler, their needs evolve and with that, what you need from your stroller can change as well. When it comes to the best stroller for your toddler, you want something capable of comfortably holding your growing child while still being convenient and functional. The options can seem infinite; however, I've narrowed down the field to the top 5 jogging strollers for you and your toddler.
A couple of things to keep in mind about all the options are that jogging strollers can be quite large in general (both collapsed and set up) and most have the option to snap on an infant car seat, optimizing how long you can efficiently use it. Below are the highlights of each.
#1 Best Jogging Stroller For Toddlers: The Bob Revolution SE
Hands down, BOB has created the best jogging stroller for toddlers on the market today with the Revolution SE. It provides superior stability when running with its all-terrain tires and state of the art, adjustable suspension. This stroller has exceptional durability, which is complimented by its capacity to hold children up to 70 lbs. This is by far one of the largest capacities for strollers on the market. We also highly recommend the BOB Flex, it's one of our favorite strollers for serious runners.
For serious runners who will use their stroller for nothing else besides running, the BOB Ironman is another choice. However, for most parents who are looking to strike a balance between everyday usage and jogging capability, this stroller is the perfect fit. In their 2015 testing, BabyGear Lab considered this stroller the one that most helps moms get back to exercising outdoors. This was due to its unique ability to provide the maneuverability of a swiveling front wheel while also capturing the performance of a fixed front wheel.
Other features include:
- Shock absorbers can be adjusted as your baby grows to ensure his/her comfort
- A roomy cargo basket as well as a large seatback pocket to hold your keys, wallet, etc.
- Internal seat pockets that can be used for snack or toys also
- Adjustable canopy and ultra-padded reclining seat
BabyGear Lab considered this stroller the one that most helps moms get back to exercising outdoors.
The stroller also has a number of additional options, including a handlebar console and child snack tray but all must be purchased separately and can be expensive. The high cost is one of the bigger drawbacks to this stroller since it can range from $300-$400.

Three sources told Automotive News Europe that Magna International Inc. is considering a proposal to buy Italian design specialist Pininfarina S.p.A. According to Pininfarina's quarterly earnings report released earlier this month, the company could be sold as soon as Dec. 31. However, the Canadian-Austrian parts supplier and Pininfarina declined to discuss the potential sale.
A source said that Magna is seeking to boost its position as a global supplier of design, engineering and contract manufacturing. Pininfarina's design expertise and engineering know-how are expected to expand the range of services offered by Magna subsidiary Magna Steyr, which has engineers that will complete vehicles and builds cars for many automakers at its assembly plant in Graz, Austria.
Magna had attempted to gain control of Aston Martin from Ford Motor Co. and last year, a consortium led by Magna expected to acquire Opel/Vauxhall from General Motors Co. These two strategies both failed. With the Opel defeat, Magna had chosen to stop pursuing automakers and to concentrate on its core business of supplying parts and services, as well as contract manufacturing.
Pininfarina, which is famous for its legendary sport cars such as the 1966 Alfa Romeo Spider and the 1984 Ferrari Testarossa, had struggled financially for years. It had lost a combined 358 million euros from 2007 to 2009. In August 2009, Pininfarina got the services of Banca Leonardo, a Milan-based merchant bank, to sell a 50.7% stake held by Pincar, the Pininfarina family holding company.
The sale is part of a debt agreement made at the end of 2008 with creditor banks, which canceled 180 million euros in loans as part of the agreement. The proceeds from the sale of the stake will go to the banks. The stake had increased to 76.1% late last year after the banks canceled another 70 million euros in loans.

Verizon Adds 120K FiOS Video Subs in Q222 Jul, 2012 By: Erik Gruenwedel
Telco offers no update about pending digital video rental venture with Redbox
Verizon Communications added 120,000 net new video subscribers in the second quarter (ended June 30), ending the period with almost 4.5 million fiber-optic FiOS households — up more than 16% from nearly 3.8 million FiOS video subscribers during the same period last year.
The video sub net additions were nearly 35% less than the 184,000 net subs during the second quarter in 2011. Through the first six months of the year, Verizon has added 300,000 net new video subs — down more than 20% from 376,000 net sub additions during the same period last year.
Operating income for the FiOS business segment dropped nearly 41% to $188 million from $318 million last year. Operating revenue increased 2.5% to more than $3.4 billion from more than $3.3 billion last year.
In a July 19 call with analysts, Verizon CFO Francis Shammo made no mention of the telco's planned second-half launch of a digital video rental service with Redbox. The kiosk disc-rental service reports second-quarter fiscal results July 26.

When the middle commercial break was almost over, I remembered that I should record Arrested Development with Tivo. So, I took a look at its guide and navigated to Arrested Development by pushing the direction pad which makes the beeping sound. While I was doing this, I heard an echo of the beeping sound, which I thought was strange. I shut off the guide and saw that Bart was using a Tivo-like device! ~T

I love the Jets. I hate the NFL.
I am obsessed with fantasy football. I loathe Roger Goodell.
Thus, every Sunday and most Monday night I am glued to the television supporting a sport I love and a league I despise.
I would love to tell you that I'll stop watching. I would enjoy sharing that my disdain over the actions of the NFL is so great that I cannot bear support them for one week longer.
But I am not a liar.
Thus, this is the conundrum that many fans find themselves in. And it's going to get worse before it gets better.
The NFL is too big to fail. The question in my title was misleading – the question has been answered a thousand times over. The real question is – what will happen? And the real answer is likely, "Nothing."
We shouldn't support the NFL like we do. In fact, Americans have almost been trained to reject their corporate overlords. We don't like when things become too popular. Our bands and brands, our performers and leaders, we usually tire of them when they hit critical mass. Look at ESPN. In the 1990's, the upstart misfit from a mid-sized town in Connecticut was adored and beloved. Today, the network is one of the most powerful and valuable media brands in the world – there are entire sites devoted to mocking it or airing its dirty secrets.
The NFL? We can't get enough.
Even as the league pays nearly $1 billion to former players. Even as it strong-arms ESPN out of promoting its coverage of the concussion issue. Even as players suffer injuries at an alarming rate.
We don't care.
I wrote about the new college football rule for targeting that features an automatic suspension for a helmet to helmet hit. It is a tremendous rule. Players deserve to be punished immediately and severely for a play that is dangerous and has led to the concussion epidemic that has taken over the sport.
You will never see that rule in the NFL. Because the NFL doesn't care about player safety. Oh, they levy fines. And players write checks. It's water under the bridge. When your game check is $250,000 and you're fined $50,000 – who cares? You still made $200,000 for a week's worth of work. If you believe in your mind you made it there due to your aggressive – read: dangerous – play, why would you change?
You wouldn't.
The NFL cares so deeply about player safety that they have again begun a push for an 18-game season. Because nothing says "player safety" like exposing players to 2 more games of punishment. The NFL knows that regardless of what fans say about it, they will watch. Fantasy leagues will get 2 more games. TV networks will get 2 more games. Gamblers get 2 more games. Everyone wins! Except the players.
But the players aren't the only one who lose in the NFL's total domination of the world. We suffer too. The fans suffer on a weekly basis. In fact, I would argue that the NFL is the most un-fan-friendly league in the world. They can be. They know we'll watch.
Have you attended an NFL game in-person recently? I will spare you the horrifying details on the cost – of tickets, of food, of beer, of parking, of souvenirs. It is simply a hideous experience. The game is made for television. It is made for the people who paid nothing instead of the people who paid hundreds. The never-ending television timeouts. The lack of replays. The staggering amount of extremely drunk old men. Attending a game is largely not fun once the tailgating ends. Yet we still go. We have to. We have a collective addiction to football that we cannot cure.
Even when we do watch from home, we are inevitably screwed. Take it from me as a Jets fan. I live in Washington, D.C. now. The Jets are rarely on. The archaic television policies the NFL continues to abide by leaving us in the dark ages. Oh, sure, the NFL RedZone is great. You know what's better? Watching any game I want.
On Saturday night, many college football fans were up in arms that ABC decided to do a split-national telecast in its 8pm primetime slot. You either got Michigan/UConn or Kansas State/Texas. People were upset. They are used to being able to watch every college football game every week.
This scenario plays out every single week in the NFL! No one complains.
Even worse, the NFL will never, ever have competition. In any other form of business – and I mean, literally any other – this would be considered a monopoly. In football, that means an anti-trust exemption and tax breaks.
Even when another league thinks of coming up – the short-lived XFL or WLAF or UFL – they are roundly and routinely mocked by the media. You know, the legion of sportswriters whose paychecks largely exist due to the success of the NFL. They're in on it too. The next time you hear a bad word on television about the NFL will be the first – every single broadcast channel has an NFL contract.
Just this summer, Fox Sports 1 jumped into the sports media fray. Their goal of beating ESPN was as laughable as the United Football League trying to out-rate the NFL. The Fox Sports 1 launch was met with open arms – competition is great! – while the UFL was met with the resounding sound of silence. And, yes, Fox Sports 1 has been every bit the failure so far that the UFL was.
Is there hope out there?
And we only have ourselves to blame. We let it get to this point and there's no turning back. The money is too great. The popularity is too entrenched. The league is too ingrained in our lives.
Roger Goodell will continue to cash 7-figure checks over the littered bodies of men who no longer have memories. Taxpayers will continue to write 10-figure checks to build palaces for billionaires. The media will continue its forced love affair with the league in fear of being outcast from a cash cow.
I'd like to continue this rant. But I need to check out the waiver wire for my fantasy football league.
Sigh. I hate being part of the problem.

Dear NappyValleyNetter,
Last week there was another nasty accident on Balham High Road, just opposite the Tesco Express petrol station and outside Rutherford House school.
It's a really horrible piece of tarmac. Cars not only whizz up and down the High Road but also cross four carriages to get to the petrol station, slow down to turn left into Tooting Park Road and I haven't even mentioned those vehicles using the BP garage or speeding out of Ritherdon Road.
So when Seb posted a few weeks ago (click here) that he'd just witnessed a nasty smash I wasn't too surprised and when it happened *again* last week I'm afraid I just made a mental note to be extra careful.
Thankfully, however, the parents at Rutherford House have been more pro-active and set-up an e-petition to get something done about this dangerous stretch of SW London. So please do check out their petition (click here) and sign if you agree that something should be done.
On a separate note, we've had a ton of requests for print copies of the NappyValleyNet Schools Guide. Most of you should have received your issues by now but it's still not too late to order a copy, simply ping email@example.com and we'll pop one in the post.

Hi Everyone, I'm new to this forum. I believe I have fibromyalgia although I've never been truly diagnosed with it. My PCP suspected I have it by my symptoms. But I'm really not so sure.
I have a lot of the symptoms: migraines, feeling of achiness all over, trouble sleeping, depression, lack of energy, and lack of concentration/poor memory. I also have pain that seems to shoot down my legs and I get this often. I sought treatment from a chiropractor last year who said she could help, but the treatment just cost me a lot of money and didn't make my fibro symptoms any better. It did help me to turn my head better, so it wasn't a total waste of time and money.
But when she first examined me, she touched the tender points. I didn't flinch or feel pain from that. So, now I'm wondering if she is right, that I don't have it. I also don't feel intense pain, it's mostly just aching. I do feel a numbness on the mid-right side of my back often. I also have sensitivity to heat and cold in my hands and feet. I cannot stay in a pool that is below 80 degrees for much more than 15 minutes without my hands and feet going completely numb.
I'm on Gabapentin and Tramadol. They both help with the pain and I always know when the Gabapentin is wearing off because the pain returns. I don't always need to take the Tramadol. I cannot take NSAIDS because I had gastric bypass surgery a couple years ago. That resulted in a weight loss of about
120 pounds, so that certainly helped with the pain, but I still have it. I don't get much exercise, as I have a hard time motivating myself to do it. I often get really tired in mid-afternoon and need to lie down. I don't often nap, but I just need to lie down for about
15 minutes or so.
I used to work full time and have been working part time out of my home for the past 5 years. My husband is out of work and I'd like to go back to work full time but just don't think I can do it physically.
Has anyone else here been diagnosed with FM but didn't have the pain when the tender points were pressed? Sometimes I think I'm just imagining all of this. I think my family just thinks I'm lazy.

Hi Vikatory, Welcome to the forum! I'm sorry you are hurting. In getting a diagnosis
one of the first steps is being referred to a doctor who is familiar with fibromyalgia,
usually a rheumatoligist. Bloodwork is done to rule out any connective tissue diseases.
Fibro has many simular symptoms of CTD's and that is why it is very important to
rule out the posibility of an autoimmune disease. Getting a dx can take a long time.
Clinical symptoms.. fatigue and pain levels can change. Some of my tenderpoints
are more painful than others, but they all have hurt when pressed.
Please read fibro 101 page 1, at the top of the page. Sherrine has put together a
wonderful resource on fibromyalgia. There is a link to the Spoon Theory, I would
share this story with your family. It may help them understand your situation better.
We all tollerate meds differantly and you will find that we all take differant meds to
help. Execrcise is very important to people with fibro. Lack of activity will only make
you more sore.
I'm glad that you have joined our family. You will find the people here caring and
very understanding. We all know what it is like to hurt, but encourage eachother to
live a happy fullfilling life. Come back to post often with any questions or concerns.
WE CARE! Hugs, Robin

And FWIW, I've had blood tests to rule out autoimmune diseases. However, my dad has lupus. His symptoms are totally different than mine, though.

Hi, Vikatory, and welcome! Yes, you could have fibro but, as Robin said, you need to rule out other illnesses first. Many illnesses do have a lot of the same symptoms as fibro. Also, each of us has a different combination of symptoms and that could be true of lupus, too. This is why you really need to get testing done.
Be sure to check out Fibro 101...the first thread on the forum. There are links to good info about
fibro and you will learn a lot. Be sure to check out the list of symptoms and also What Else Could It Be links. These other illnesses are treated somewhat differently and can be helped.
I have tender points but not all of them. I probably would have all of them if I wasn't taking ibuprofen and Tylenol and some supplements that help me. Without taking these things, I feel like someone has beaten me with a baseball bat.
I'm glad you joined our family. I sure hope you get to the bottom of your problems soon. Don't hesitate to ask questions because we are here to help you. Hope to hear more from you soon.

Hi Vikatory and welcome to our fibro family, one of the things that I have learned from being in here is that there are days where the tenderpoints wont be as sore as other days. I have also learned that they are coming out with a new protocol for diagnosing fibro, but cant remember where I read it. Sorry that is my fibro fog acting up. lol Like Robin and Sherrine said though you need to have other autoimmune diseases ruled out first. I also can not take NSAIDS because of Gastric Bypass and my bypass made me ultra sensitive to any sort of oral narcotic pain killers. I have to use Fentanyl patches to deal with my pain. I also am very sensitive to cold on hands and feet and alot of mine is achyness now but there are times where something can severely hurt too. Well anyways Sherrine and Robin have given you alot of good advice so I just wanted to say that you have come to a great place. The people here are wonderful and very supportive.

Thanks everyone. I'm glad to be here. I'd love to get a diagnosis, but we have no health insurance right now. Hubby quit his job in May and he's trying to find another one. I work part time for a small business and COBRA is outrageous. Prospects actually look good for him to find a new job, but it's taking forever. So...I have to really lay low on the spending and doctor visits for now. I was lucky to get into a prescript
ion program through our local grocery store that gives me cheaper prescript
ions, some of them are cheaper than when we actually had insurance.
sotiredoffibro, I have a question for you. Did the hands and feet thing start after your weight loss surgery or was that a condition you had before? The reason I ask is because I've noticed that problem with me after I lost 120 pounds. Last summer was cool and I couldn't go in our pool for more than about
5 minutes before my hand and feet went numb. I'm also very sensitive to heat, like if I'm at the sink and turn the faucet to warm, I feel a burning sensation, even though the water isn't that hot. And it just seems to be with my extremities, and not other parts of my body.

Welcome Vikatory,
Everyone has given excellent advice. about
your tenderpoint question: When I was first diagnosed some years ago by my g.p., my tenderpoints were much more sensitive and reactive. Now, they're not as strongly sensitive and not as frequently. Overall, my fibro is better now than it was back then. I had my first Rheumy appt this week and told him I didn't think they were very sensitive currently - I didn't expect to react to his exam - I mean it felt painful when he touched them but I didn't freak out --- until he hit certain ones! So I don't put a whollllllle lot of weight in the tenderpoint basket for diagnosis anymore.
It is possible to find a free clinic that will work with you on ruling out other illnesses and assist with the diagnosis. Call your local hospital and ask them the names and phone numbers for free clinics in your area. I used to go to one that was only
open one night a week at the local hospital. The program was run by a nurse practitioner - but they had access to doctors who sometimes volunteered their services. They can run tests, labs, etc. It is worth it to make sure you don't have something else going on. If it is "just" fibro, then you can carry on with finding ways to make you life better. And it can get better.
Why my username? It is real life nickname. I love chickens. Will have my flock of hens one day! :D .............. DX'd with Fibromyalgia, chronic hives, sensitivities and allergies, migraines with auras, tmj, and IBS. Not sure what else!

I only had a few in my neck and shoulders.. Not nearly enough for a dx of Fibro. But have it I do. Course.. they didn't do this test until I was already on Savella. I felt no pain for some reason. Now the day after the test? I felt every where that he poked me!! I have a high tolerance and delayed reaction to pain. And.. My real problem is rarely where the pain is. So your symptoms are perfectly normal for Fibro.
Lupus also displays in different ways. So do alot of things so you can't count them out until the lab tests do. :)

Hi Vikatory, you know now that you mention it the intolerance to cold on my hands and feet did get alot worse after the bypass. I cant even mix up hamburger anymore because I cant handle the cold on my hands. Luckily my kids do that for me. I guess I never really thought of it before though. You are right it was after the by-pass that I couldnt take it anymore. I dont have problems with heat though like you do, just the cold.

I just had my doc up my Gabapentin because I found I needed to take them more often and I'd use them up before I could get a refill. The first couple of days on the double dose I felt loopy, but now it seems to be working very well. It gives me energy too, but it doesn't interfere with my sleep. Of course, I have to take nighttime Tylenol and a Xanax to knock me out at night, but I do get a good night's sleep for the most part.
So now I feel better. I just hope it'll last.
Thanks everyone for your understanding and kind words. I don't have a lot of understanding people who I can talk to about

1085 Series Surface Mount with Wire Leads
The 1085 Series surface mount magnetic contacts are designed for use in installations where a
small, sealed unit is required. The reed switch is totally encapsulated in GE Security's exclusive polyurethane potting compound
preventing moisture from entering the switch and causing false alarms.
The 5/8-inch standard gap distance allows for fast, easy installation and prevents false alarms from loose
fitting doors. Recessed mounting holes make for clean-looking installations. Wide gap models are available.

1085T Series Surface Mount with Screw Terminals
The 1085T is ideal for residential and commercial applications where terminal
connections are preferred. The unit features positive clamping terminals with anti-rotation lugs and captured screws with
combination heads. These features allow for easy, quick installations. The positive terminals do not require washers that can
corrode or increase resistance. Wire will not back out from under the screw heads when the screws are tightened down. The
captured screws cannot be accidentally removed and lost, and they incorporate combination heads that will accept both Phillips
and flat-bladed screwdrivers. Combine this with seven available models including wide gap and SPDT, and this is one of the most
popular contacts available in the industry today.
The contact and magnet are hermetically sealed reed switches nominally 2.5"(6.35cm) L x .50" (1.27cm) W x .56"
(1.43cm) D. The connection to the contact is made through #6 screw terminals. Mounting holes are on 2.09" (5.33cm) centers. Color
