America takes drugs in psychic defense.
–Iggy Pop, "Neon Forest"
Doug Schneider lives in Green Bay and only rarely attends Packers games. Instead, as "watchdog reporter" for the Green Bay Press-Gazette, Schneider monitors the games from some undisclosed location where he listens to the police scanner and posts what he hears on Twitter, using the hashtag #scannersquawk. Watching the Packers game and following Schneider's tweets at the same time offers a fascinating glimpse at to what goes on inside Lambeau Field — not just on the field but in stands.
As might be predicted, the police voices that come across on #scannersquawk relay incidents of drunkenness, violence, and drunken violence within the stands. Violence among fans has been a disturbing problem in which alcohol consumption plays a major role. But scrolling through the #scannersquawk feed, it's difficult not to notice the many fans who pass out in the stands, in the concourse, and most prominently in the bathroom, affectionately referred to as the "vomitorium."1
Here's a sampling of #scannersquawk from the Packers-Dallas Cowboys game on October 16.
"Female passed out by section 348." #scannersquawk #DALvsGB
— Doug Schneider (@PGDougSchneider) October 16, 2016
"Section 328. Apparently, there's a male (who) passed out." #scannersquawk #DALvsGB
— Doug Schneider (@PGDougSchneider) October 16, 2016
"Atrium, near the men's bathroom, for a person who is sick." #scannersquawk #DALvsGB Jason Garrett?
— Doug Schneider (@PGDougSchneider) October 16, 2016
"Patient (who) was by the atrium there was vomiting." #scannersquawk #DALvsGB
— Doug Schneider (@PGDougSchneider) October 16, 2016
"Is now incoherent and unable to walk." #scannersquawk
— Doug Schneider (@PGDougSchneider) October 16, 2016
"Intoxicated male stumbled into the bar. Doesn't know his name and address. Still has car keys." #scannersquawk

It's pretty easy to laugh at all this, and laugh I do; it helps cheer me up when the game has lost my interest. But passing out at Lambeau Field is also strange behavior for Packers fans because the eight home games are events in such high demand. The waiting list for Packers season tickets contains over 81,000 names (roughly the size of Green Bay itself) and an average waiting period of 30 years, so to pass out in the vomitorium seems like an incredibly wasted opportunity.
But the drunken casualties at Lambeau Field also suggest something considerably less humorous and considerably more disturbing (as our own Noah Cohan has covered both here and here). Passing out very well may be an unconscious attempt to avoid the damaging psychological effect of watching extremely large men crash into one another over and over and over again and be helped off the field by the training staff; or placed on a flatbed cart and driven to the locker room; or have their head secured on a back board, lifted on to a stretcher, and then driven away in an ambulance, while other players gather and kneel in prayer.
Watching an NFL game on TV is a qualitatively different experience from watching it live because the network can't intervene and cut to a commercial during an "injury timeout" in which the play of the game is suspended while the player is helped off the field with the help of the aforementioned training staff, motorized cart, or ambulance. Injury timeouts have become a formal and regular part the NFL, and their very regularity and formality leads to a desensitized and blasé attitude toward the mangled human body that can only be described as fucked up. Essentially, the league and its advertisers have just decided that since players are inevitably going to get injured as a consequence of doing their jobs (injuries occur in other sports, but they are aberrational, not a natural consequence of the game itself), why not air some commercials while the game is stopped and the player is removed from the field?
Of course, fans don't experience the repetitive violence firsthand that players do or suffer the consequences of playing, but, as we're beginning to learn, second-hand trauma is a real thing, and can have drastic effects on those who witness or listen to accounts of trauma. Trauma, it turns out, is contagious. And just because such violence happens in the context of something as seemingly trivial as a sport doesn't make it any less traumatic for those who view it. Only the most callous among us could watch football and not, on some level, be seriously affected by what we see.
Which might explain why drinking is as much a part of NFL Sundays as injuries. The fact that we consume alcohol — a depressant — for celebratory purposes has always struck me as strange behavior. Wouldn't other drugs be better, ones that didn't exact such a toll on our bodies? But alcohol's social function isn't that it depresses us, it's what it depresses in us, how it dulls or numbs the pain of existence so that to take a break from all our worries, "sure would help a lot" as the "Cheers" theme song reminds us. At football games, the booze and beer serve a dual purpose: they allow us to forget about the anxieties and concerns of our lives, while also dulling us to the trauma we're about to witness.
And so, the stadium itself — as well as its parking lots and surrounding bars — becomes a reflection of the violence on the field itself. As players are being carted off the field, drunken fans are being escorted out of the stadium. As players get cortisone shots and painkillers to numb their injured bodies enough so that they can play, fans medicate themselves with booze as a way of desensitizing themselves to bearing witness to violence. The analogy even goes beyond the stadium. Players always speak of the soreness that results the day after a game, how they oftentimes have difficulty getting out of bed. In their own homes, fans wake up on Monday with splitting headaches and unruly stomachs, hangovers from Sunday's game.
So maybe it isn't that just that alcohol provides "psychic defense" as Iggy Pop would have it. Maybe it also allows us the ultimate fan experience, a chance to be just like the athletes we look up to: injured and semi-conscious.
1 Popular understanding of the term suggests that the Romans had special rooms where they would go and puke after some decadent feast so that they could go eat more. But that's actually a modern misapplication of the term, which had nothing to do with gastrointestinal upheaval. Macrobius, a fifth century Roman writer, used the term "vomitorium" to describe the way in which spectators would spew forth into and out of their seats from the tunnels at amphitheaters. Fittingly, then, Lambeau Field connects the two usages: fans spew forth from their seats so that they can go spew forth the contents of their stomachs in the restroom.

How to… select an archive to research in
Please reference as: Liz Stanley (2016) 'How to select an archive to research in' http://www.whiteswritingwhiteness.ed.ac.uk/HowTo/How-to-select-an-archive, and provide the paragraph number as appropriate when quoting.
1. A discussion of a number of the things covered in this 'How to… select an archive to research in' will be found in the chapters (1 and 2) I was responsible for writing in a book just published —– The Archive Project: Archival Research in the Social Sciences. Niamh Moore, Andrea Salter, Liz Stanley, Maria Tamboukou. London: Routledge, August 2016.
A lot more information, including about all the other chapters and many other goodies as well, is contained on the book's website, which will be found at https://sites.google.com/site/thebookarchiveproject/
The Routledge book website is https://www.routledge.com/The-Archive-Project-Archival-Research-in-the-Social-Sciences/Moore-Salter-Stanley-Tamboukou/p/book/9781472453945
2. It's worth starting with a broad comment. In a sense asking the question of how to select an archive is a bit of a non-starter, for the key factor in decisions about where to do a piece of research is the research problem – a topic or issue that the researcher wants to find out about – together with some research questions that can help focus the investigation. It's usually not a matter of, 'I want to work in the British Library, or the government archives in Delhi, or the Kimberley Africana Library', but instead that 'I'm interested in the UK suffragette movement, or want to know if Kallenbach's letters to Gandhi throw light on his pacifism when back in India, or I'm concerned with the impact of the early days of Kimberley diamond mining on relations between black and white people'.
3. However, standing back a bit in time terms, and thinking about the point before a clear interest or set of research concerns has been decided upon, in the earlier stages of a research project it is important to cast the net wide and to trawl in the academic literatures for topics – and also archives – of interest. This immediately raises the question of, what is meant by 'archive' here, is this a collection of some kind or is it the organisational edifice that holds many such collections? It's helpful to be clear about this, for people can talk at cross purposes, with one of them meaning an organisational edifice, and the other referring to collections.
4. This is particularly important given the character of much present archival theorising. This tends to make large generalisations particularly about the links between imperialism and 'the archive', but mainly using the term as a metaphor then attached to particularly famous or infamous organisational edifices such as the British Library or equivalents in other countries that were once or still are imperial powers. In general, metaphors are less helpful in carrying out practical investigations than tried and trusted methodological strategies.
5. At an everyday research level, the seemingly simple matter of whether 'archive' is a location or a collection raises some complexities and also suggests some helpful ways of making operational decisions about 'how to select an archive/a collection'. An example will help explain. Reading widely in journal articles and also research-based books (rather than textbook) on the British missionary presence in southern Africa is likely to show that many of the references in these are to collections held in the manuscripts and archives section of SOAS, part of the University of London (there are others in addition, but for present purposes these can be bracketed). Straight away, this provides the beginnings of a way to focus, for a bit more interrogation of these references will show which particular collections are to be found in this archival location (there are a number of them at SOAS in fact). There are also other missionary collections elsewhere, and research that is on missionaries in general would need to take cognizance of these too.
6. Most people would be unable, for reasons of cost and time, to go to a number of locations just on the off-chance of finding things that might be interesting and relevant. Most of the researchers interested in such things will come from many parts of the world, will not have large research grants to take them on extensive travels, and will not have the time to be entirely speculative in their activities. So how to decide?
7. Having a clear idea of a topic or focus of interest, and preferably also some beginning research questions about this, is a way forward. To continue with the same example as above, deciding to focus on one aspect of the missionary presence in southern Africa would be a logical next step. If this was a particular interest in, say, the development of missionary activity in the Eastern Cape and its relationship to the many Frontier Wars that occurred there, it means that research would focus on the Wesleyans and Methodism, as these were the main missionaries present in that area, which in turn would mean that one archival location and a particular collection in it would become a focus – London, SOAS, and the Methodist Missionary Society collection (nb. in practice a piece of research is not always going to be restricted to just one collection, and so the focus may not be exclusively on this). However, if instead the interest was in, say, the General Missionary Council gatherings, the meetings of representatives from the world community of missions, and particularly their foundation point in Edinburgh in 1910, this would direct a researcher's attention to a different archive and a particular collection in it: the USA, Columbia University, and the World Missionary Conference records.
8. To refer back to the other examples briefly mentioned earlier, focusing on the collections and archival references in research publications on the suffragette movement, Gandhi's political activities, and the early days of diamond mining, would produce similar results. Doing so would show in what archives the main collections of potential interest are located, although care needs to be taken, for the chance matter of what is read might mean that something important can be missed, and so a review of the literature needs to be thorough. Once this is done, then more detailed work can begin, of whittling down the possibilities by finding out (if possible) what is in these and also reading more in the research literature, so that the topic and research questions and the possible collections of interest are developed and refined together in a hand-in-hand way.
9. Many, perhaps even most, historical research topics will involve more than working on just one collection in one place. Researching one of the examples mentioned above, the UK suffragette movement, for example, would involve numerous collections in national archives of a range of kinds, and also in many local archives as well. Best then to refine the research focus to something very specific, not least because the published literature is absolutely enormous.
10. What if the research focus is an archive as an edifice? or if it is deliberately restricted to one collection for particular analytical reasons? No problem, so long as the same kind of approach is adopted, in being clear about what the research questions are, and relating these to the published academic literature on the topic of focus.
11. By no means all archives have extensive catalogues of their collections, or inventories (a detailed listing) of even the most extensive or more important ones. Because of this, references to collections that appear in the research literatures are particularly important in gauging their relevance or not. Inexperienced archival researchers may think everything will be on an archive's website, but they often don't have one or if they do the information there is very sparse. They may also think that it's possible just to ring up or email and a pliant archivist will tell them exactly what there is that fits their particular research project. But best avoid doing this, because in general archivists do not know the contents of collections but equally important matters to do with curation, and because finding these things out is your job and not theirs, and they should not be treated as unpaid assistant researchers! So do your homework first, pin down the archive and collection or collections you want to look at, then make an arrangement to visit for a period of time, and go prepared to look much wider than the specifics you have initially identified.
12. Two cautions to finish with. The first caution is to beware of the depictions of archival research in films and novels, and not to see it in terms of the search for a particular document which will 'reveal all' because of its eureka content. It just doesn't happen like that, forget the Da Vinci Code! If anyone tells you that it is, this is likely to be a very tall story. The advice here is, never to go to an archive and look at a collection with just searching for a particular document in mind. It will be in mind because another piece of research has been read and has put it there, while the purpose of research is to go further. And going further requires new knowledge, requires stepping outside the bounds set by what other people know. So as suggested above, it is best to plan a more extensive piece of work, which could be directly related to, but might be better to be less closely linked but still within the same broad area as, your research topic, for this really will increase the knowledge-base.
13. The second caution is related. Whenever visiting an archive, and whenever looking at something in a collection, always use this as an opportunity to go beyond what you already know about. This can be done from the very beginning of a research project. At the beginning, literature searches should be regularly carried out on any and everything of direct – and much of indirect – relationship to the project in hand. The advice here is that when reviewing the research literature, always identify what are the gaps in and issues with this. This is an important part of refining the topic and the research questions – and also it means that it pinpoints areas where innovative work can be done, for no body of research literature is so complete or so perfect but there are still opportunities to do something new within its framework.
14. Finally, it is important to remember that both 'an archive' and 'a collection' can be many and varied. They can and do include the contents of shoeboxes in a wardrobe as well as tidy and curated collections of things considered priceless.

The Concise Oxford English Dictionary will no longer have a term for those plastic boxes that people used to shove sound-holding bricks into, way back when dinosaurs roamed the Earth: Cassette player is somehow being "retired" from the latest version of the dictionary, alongside actual esoteric words like brabble and growlery. Threequel and video jockey are also getting the boot, despite the fact that those are still perfectly cromulent terms as well. Cassettes are still in use at least sometimes, so this seems like a premature retirement, but cassingle can probably safely be cut.

No problem OSK. You obviously are far more qualified to do whatever it is you do then I am. As usual my attempt to use "The Sword Project" and contribute has dribbled to not. Maybe I'll see ya again in another couple years perhaps by then I'll be qualified to hang out with you. Hopefully by then Microsoft will have finally fixed their IDE so your instructions will work.

Compression Tactical Bra - Cheata Tactical
Patented technology is designed to provide the stability of 2-3 sports bras,...
A Utah Highway Patrol trooper fell to his death on Saturday during a search and rescue mission on Mount Olympus.
Aaron Beesley, 34, apparently plunged to his death, after the highway patrol's helicopter rescued two stranded hikers on Mount Olympus Trail after 4:30 p.m. The helicopter rescued the two teenagers from a cliff, and Beesley stayed behind.
When the helicopter returned, the trooper was located at the bottom of a 90-foot cliff, reports Deseret News.
Trooper Beesley was a 13-year veteran and tactical flight officer.
crispianranger @ 7/2/2012 9:55 PM
What a pity! Another selfless person dies pointlessly.
john @ 7/7/2012 12:51 PM
What a tragedy. I can't understand why people who put themselves knowingly in danger climbing an F'n mountain expect (and receive) rescue for their misadventures.For this reason, this trooper is now gone...his family and his co-workers and community suffer his loss.We really need to re-think what level of support we provide to idiots who put themselves into harm's way.Trooper Beesley should not have died that day.

I also received ACCRE as I had been registered with the Pôle Emploi for some time even though I was working part time.
Call them, works for us.
Quick question from 'Miss Idiot, Dept 87'. I declared my first ever declaration trimestrielle online (albeit early as paranoid I'd miss the due date) but have received another demand from RSI. Do I ignore it, assuming it's automatically issued, or send it back to them with a copy of the online declaration acknowledgement?
Yes I was entitled to get ACCRE. Now in my third year and the cotisations have just gone up to 16% for me.
I also received this based on the fact that I was receiving ACTIPAJE (for mums of children under 3yrs old). It's fantastic.
Thanks Jenn! Excellent info
I forgot to mention that I benefited from this with my auto entreprise and have gotten this for most of my clients who have started ones as well, its worth a shot applying even if you're slightly past the 45 day mark, you never know and it sometimes works.
It's called the ACCRE. It's for everyone who is applying via the pole emploi. It must be applied for within 45 days of starting your auto entreprise. Other people can benefit from the scheme as well such as young people and those recieving the RSA.
For service based auto entreprises it's 5,4 percent the first year, 10,7 percent the second year, 16 percent the third year. For selling of goods it differs, 3 percent first year, 6 percent second year, 9 percent third year.
If you want to apply for it, it's easy, one form called the Cerfa 13584 02 or is available on the service publique website: http://vosdroits.service-public.fr/pme/R17122.xhtml.
Good luck,
Jenn from Mon Ami Andy
I will investigate from that angle, thanks Maria.
I was told recently that new Auto-entrepreneurs only pay 5% tax for the first year and then only 10% for the second! I have never heard this myself and would be very surprised if it was the case. Anyone?
Brilliant! Thank you, both. Things are getting much clearer in my head and the long-over-due invoicing (that's another story) is getting closer.
Diana, your accountant is bullsh.....g! I suspect he or she would like their work kept easy and no more than that. If in doubt, do as we do with € equivalent in brackets. We only do it as a guide for ourselves to see how it compares when paid in.
Checked with a friend. OK, logical. Inside the Eurozone you must invoice in € but all other business which is outside the Eurozone you can use whatever you want. They are simply trying to avoid, she says, opportunistic ways of pulling the wool over bureaucratic eyes. She works for the Tresorerie Publique that we use and is a parent of a child in the same class as one of ours, so sympathetic and also a trained accountant with qualifications in the legal bits. We always ask her, and she has the clever websites immediately on hand.
Thank you Ricky. It didn't make much sense to me - but it was my accountant who told me - very firmly!
I don't think this is correct Diana. I asked my accountant about how to treat receipts for affiliate advertising which is sometimes in US$ sometimes in GBP and sometimes in Euros and he referred me to the Banque de France rates - nothing at all about any rule on any particular currency. Thinking about it this makes sense as it is really no business of the Tresor Public what is invoiced for any particular job only that they get their share of the spoils at the end of the day. I do other UK based work (outwith the AE scheme) and the accountant, as I understand matters, applied the appropriate conversion rate and lets me know the damage - again never any question of what currency to invoice in.
We mainly have to invoice in $ but we simply put the € rate of the day in brackets on the invoices. Expecting people who have only ever paid in $ to use € would be impossible for us anyway because they would tell us where to go. It goes into the bank and appears as € anyway, so I hardly see it matters.
I have also recently become an AE but have not yet done any invoicing. Most of my sales will be to the UK or other parts of the world but I have been told that I must invoice in Euros. Is this correct or can I invoice in other currencies?
can't remember RIcky, some documents need to be kept for up to 30 years, I posted a link ages ago with all the various periods on it, just google to see ;-)
I've had no checks so far but will be preserving all bank statements, invoices etc for the requisite French period which I think is significantly longer than the UK's 6 years - possibly 10 in France but not certain.
echo waht's been said by Brian and Ricky, I've never been checked since 2009 - it's all done on trust but you sign to say it's correct so if it isn't...!
auto entrepreneur's association are trying to influence the government's make-over of the scheme hoping to keep it up and running but reduce the gap between all the different self employed schemes/status - watch this space!

The Home Computer is evolving into hub for multimedia experiences
Dallas, Texas July 22, 2004 - A recent study by Parks Associates of more than 4,000 U.S. Internet households reveals that people with platforms such as Microsoft's Windows® XP Media Center Edition are redefining the PC's role through applications such as photo editing and video recording. In the survey, both current owners and likely buyers of Media Center Edition home computers reported significant differences compared with the entire U.S. Internet population in terms of their use of and interest in applications such as listening to digital music, creating custom CDs and DVDs, editing photos, and recording and viewing television and movies.
"A growing number of consumers are using the home computer for media personalization, creativity, storage, and sharing," said Kurt Scherf, vice president and principal analyst at Parks Associates. "Although sales to date of 'Media -PCs' incorporating Microsoft and other software solutions have been slower to date than previously expected, home computer and software developers have before them a significant opportunity to sell solutions based on personalized and customized media experiences for end users."
The Parks Associates study Consumers & Emerging Multimedia Platforms is a survey of more than 4,000 U.S. Internet households. It covers the current status of product ownership and service subscription in Internet households, from PCs and consumer electronics to Internet, voice, and television services. The study also examines the potential for forthcoming technology solutions such as media servers, user interfaces, and content applications from service providers. For more information about this study, please contact Parks Associates at 972 -490 -1113 or email@example.com or visit www.parksassociates.com.

text: So being new to the intricacies of this I'm curious about something. Lots of things actually, but let's start with this It seems that one strand of cucking is the cuck cleaning and sucking the dark cock that has been fucking his white wife. The cuck may or may not acknowledge this as bisexual. I don't think that the bull ever thinks that it is. What are your interpretations? All opinions welcome; bulls, chucks, wives, innocent bystanders?

Too much sleep, always feel exhausted
Patient : Hello, Over the last few weeks on many occasions, I have been getting in from work and sleeping from 7:30pm until 9 or 10 am. When I wake I don't feel refreshed at all. I'm not motivated to do anything and I feel like I'm sleeping my life away. I have been to my doctors and had blood tests to check for anemia and thyroid problems and both were clear. What else could this be? I have been like this on and off since my late teens. Any advice would really be appreciated. Many thanks Zoe

To add new tickets or comment on tickets, you must be logged in to protect us from spam.
You can register immediately using the link on the menu bar.
Note: a valid email address is required (the registration page incorrectly states that it is optional).
A confirmation link will be emailed to you. Sorry about that, we'd turn it off if the spammers would let us.
Note: bug entries are forwarded to the mutt developer's list, making the email address you register with public.
When reporting new tickets, please make sure that
- you find a short but meaningful summary
- describe a procedure for others to reproduce the problem (if possible)
- select properties carefully, especially the priority, component and type fields
- add "patch" to the keywords field when you have a proposed solution
See DebugTips for things to do to help diagnose a bug so that we can fix it faster.
Browse the manual for the development version, updated nightly.
The source code is maintained in a Mercurial repository here. You can pull your own copy for hacking with
hg clone http://dev.mutt.org/hg/mutt#HEAD
This will clone only the HEAD branch (where mainline development happens. You can omit the #HEAD to clone the entire repository, but then you will need to use another command to check out the latest version into your working directory after the clone:
hg update -C HEAD
Afterwards, hg pull -u should keep you up to date.
Note that if you make local clones of the repository, they will revert to the "default" branch unless you explicitly specify #HEAD again while cloning. Use "hg summary" to check you are on the HEAD branch.

Donald Yee
Donald Yee, PhD
Dr. Yee received his B.S. in Chemical Engineering and his Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering from M.I.T. His dissertation research focused on competitive interactions of trace metals on phytoplankton. Prior to joining SFEI in 1999, he has had experience in post-doctoral research on geochemistry and consulting in the private sector on environmental regulatory policy. Since joining SFEI, Dr. Yee has worked on various projects for the Clean Water Program. Projects for the Regional Monitoring Program included studies of atmospheric deposition of trace metals and organic contaminants to the estuary, and a survey in SF Estuary waters of VOCs, dioxins, and other priority pollutants not regularly monitored by RMP, and cores in the Bay and adjoining wetlands to examine pollutant histories and processes. His other work for SFEI has included investigations of loads of PCBs from point source dischargers, monitoring in the Grasslands Bypass Project with the US Bureau of Reclamation, and the Aquatic Pesticide Monitoring Program. Dr. Yee is also currently the SFEI QA Officer.
Related Projects, News, and Events
SFEI is one of the state's Regional Data Centers that exchanges water quality data to the California Environmental Data Exchange Network (CEDEN). SFEI provides data management and visualization services to the San Francisco Bay-Delta and northern montane regions.
Contaminant Data Display and Download Tool or CD3 is an innovative visualization tool for accessing water quality data for the San Francisco Bay-Delta and northern montane regions. It is the primary tool for accessing and downloading the San Francisco Bay Regional Monitoring Program's (RMP) long-term dataset and other project data stored in SFEI's Regional Data Center (RDC).
The purpose of this project is to expand the existing San Francisco Bay Regional Data Center (RDC) to include the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta and Suisun Marsh (Delta). The anticipated outcome of this project is an estuary-wide data repository where one currently does not exist.
The RMP Annual Meeting is held every year in the early fall. The meeting is an opportunity for RMP stakeholders to discuss current RMP projects and highlight interesting new research.
New Manuscript on Pollutants in the Guadalupe River Addresses Key Questions (News)
Graphic by Lester McKee, Ph.D.
Guadalupe River is contaminated with mercury mining wastes from runoff associated with the historic New Almaden Mining District in the upper watershed that produced 40 million kilograms during its working life (1850-1975) and with PCB and other urban pollutants from a long history of urbanization and industrial land uses.
SFEI has been monitoring pollutant concentrations in the Guadalupe River during winter storms since October 2002. The result is one of the world's most extensive data sets on mercury, PCBs, and other pollutant concentrations and loads in an urban river. In a recent manuscript, SFEI staff used the dataset to answer three major questions.
The Contaminant Data Display and Download Tool is a public tool for accessing and visualizing contaminant data. All data are comparable to CEDEN, the California Environmental Data Exchange Network.
We are happy to announce the release of some new enhancements to CD3 including:
RMP Keys to Success Highlighted in Two Manuscripts
The Regional Monitoring Program for Water Quality in San Francisco Bay is an innovative collaboration of the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board, the regulated discharger community, and the San Francisco Estuary Institute. It provides water quality regulators with information they need to manage the Bay effectively. The Program issues a report each year, the Pulse of the Bay in odd years and the RMP Update in even years.
Over the last decade, researchers and government agencies have begun to collect occurrence, fate, and toxicity data for a number of chemicals. Some of these chemicals have been classified as contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), often due to due to their high volume use, potential for toxicity in non-target species, and the increasing number of studies that report their occurrence in the environment.
The Montezuma wetland restoration project is returning ~2,000 acres of diked baylands to tidal, seasonal, and managed wetlands in an eastern portion of Suisun Bay near the town of Collinsville, California in Solano County.

Developing English & Maths
How Wilberforce College is supporting your son / daughter in developing their English and Maths skills…
As a college we employ a range of different strategies to help students enhance their English and Maths skills:
- When students first enrol at college they complete an on-line initial Literacy and Numeracy assessment. Because these skills are now held in such high regard by employers and further education providers, initial assessment scores are used by the college to help students make further progress as all students aim for a Level 2 qualification in both English and Maths.
- In lessons, class teachers work to enhance English and Maths skills within every subject area through assessment feedback, engaging activities and other support materials.
- Every student within the college has a personalised 'English' and 'Maths' target. These are reviewed with students and updated each term (and available on your son / daughter's area of Columbus) for all subject areas. Students will then be supported in the development of these particular skills.
- The college offers additional English and Maths sessions for students as part of the Study Support programme. If your son / daughter would like to access these they can refer themselves by visiting the 'Study Support Centre' or they can discuss this with their progress mentor.
- All students have access to the 'BKSB' software (using their individual log on details) which offers a range of interactive activities designed to help develop their literacy and numeracy skills. Students can access this on all of the college computers.
- Literacy and Numeracy areas on Moodle (which all students have access to) offer a range of different activities and support sheets for students, to help them work independently to develop these key skills.
If you would like to discuss this further, please don't hesitate to contact the following staff at the college.
Hayley Turner - Cross College English Coordinator
Linda Hardisty - Cross College Maths Coordinator

If you're a CEO, MD or GM, chances are you're incredibly ambitious. And like many business owners and top-level executives, you probably like the idea of pursuing your own ventures outside of work. But being an entrepreneur while working a separate full-time job is no easy task. Launching - and successfully running - a startup is a huge commitment, even for those who have 40 hours up their sleeves.
Marcus Lyon is co-founder and Executive Director of Brunswick Group, a property development company based in Melbourne. Before he founded Brunswick Group, he was an Executive Director at Plenary Group, a business that invests in, develops and operates public infrastructure.
'1% For The Planet' is a non-profit organisation that helps businesses donate one per cent of their profits to selected sustainability projects. Similar to how Uber connects drivers to passengers and Airbnb connects those with lodging to people seeking accommodation, '1% For The Planet' links companies with money to charities that need it.
Like many entrepreneurs, Michelle Bourke discovered the hard way the perils of hiring someone who just simply is not the right fit for the company culture.
When Charlotte Petris founded Timelio - a service that allows businesses to sell invoices to investors, using peer-to-peer technology - 80 per cent of her clients had never used a service like hers before.
When Justin Fankhauser started his locksmithing business, TopLock Locksmiths, in 2001, he had just $5,000 and a station wagon. He believes his early adoption of innovative marketing strategies played a huge role in his success, transforming the business into a 7-figure company.
Kym Williams, Managing Director of BRS Results, focuses heavily on the culture within his business consulting company. Aside from its effectiveness, "it would be a bit like a mechanic who doesn't service his own car," he says. "You have to practice what you preach."
According to dental care entrepreneur Dr Kia Pajouhesh, the health industry approach to marketing can only be depicted as 'marketing with your hands tied behind your back'. Aside from legal technicalities, there are strong expectations from patients and other clinicians that the focus should be on providing health care services - not growing a business. Hence, there can be a very strong stigma attached to being 'too entrepreneurial', especially by industry peers.
Diane Costa, Managing Director of Marketing Mechanics, recently learned a valuable lesson within her business. A senior staff member resigned, and the chance for someone to fill the leading role emerged.
Of the Melbourne Business Network's 4000 members it is estimated that only a third are regularly active. One of the main challenges faced by the organisation is getting more members on board and keeping them invested.
The marketing consultancy Clear has been creating robust branding strategies for clients for more than 10 years. Originally founded in the United Kingdom, Clear now operates across four continents and employs more than 70 staff.
Two years ago, it became clear to Jodie Sangster, CEO of ADMA (now Association for Data-driven Marketing and Advertising) that things needed to change when she was out conversing with potential members.
When AccessibilityOz was established two and a half years ago, Director Gian Wild had to start her business from scratch. There were no pre-existing models she could leverage (such as those in more traditional industries like accounting, for example) and this proved a real challenge.
How do you build a business when not many people understand the importance of what you do? Having faced just this issue, Drazen Drazic shares his recommendations for anyone facing this business situation.
Businesses often quote every potential enquiry with the intention of building their client base, reputation and portfolio as swiftly as possible. But Miles Burke, CEO of digital marketing company Bam Creative, believes chasing every opportunity is not always the wisest strategy.

Local Baby Clothier and Store Sees Direct Results
from Facebook Page Managed by BIS Designs
"Before BIS Designs, we were using another web design company based overseas in India. Although they did offer a cheaper price, we were upset with our inability to update our site at our convenience as well as the communication barrier. BIS Designs is a great service provider that not only makes sure our website is working for us, but gives us the steps to make updating and understanding painless. With the world-class support and quality of the product, it's well worth the extra money."
-Russ Clarke, Gold Art Jewelers
Before making the decision to partner with BIS Designs, Michael Ross, owner of Michael Ross Jewelers, knew how important it was to choose a company that would share and understand his vision for his business. He wanted someone who could represent the image of what Michael Ross Jewelers is about through web design.
"We chose BIS Designs because of the quality that comes with their product. Although the previous company we used was cheaper and didn't do that bad of a job, they only did it part time. You get part-time results with part-time people. At BIS Designs, I've been handled with great customer service and the results we are getting are way better than the previous company."
-Tyler Tillman, President of Daniel's Sheet Metal
