Be reminded about this event
The Walters is partnering with the Cognitive Science Department of the Zanvyl Krieger School of Arts & Science at The Johns Hopkins University to present a focus show of approximately 25 works exploring the impact of severe brain damage on the life and creativity of an artist. The show will tell the story of Lonni Sue Johnson, a successful artist who drew for The New Yorker.
She suffered severe amnesia resulting from an attack of encephalitis in late 2007. The illness caused substantial brain damage, resulting in the complete loss of artistic productivity. Through intensive art therapy led by her mother Margaret Kennard Johnson (also an accomplished artist), Johnson began to produce a portfolio of "recovery art." Her art provides unique insight into the devastating effects of amnesia, as well as the complementary roles played by language and memory in her artistic expression. Johnson's case gives researchers a rare opportunity to contribute to the scientific understanding of brain function and art, and to apply that understanding to an appreciation of the synergies between art and science.
Puzzles of the Brain: An Artist's Journey through Amnesia has been organized by the Walters Art Museum in partnership with the Cognitive Science Department of the Zanvyl Krieger School of Arts and Sciences at The Johns Hopkins University. The exhibition received generous support from The Johns Hopkins University Brain Science Institute, and the Zanvyl Krieger School of Arts and Sciences.

The 9mm Self-Stick-Valve is the industry standard for all inflation valves. Will work on 99.9% of all kites in production. Available in one way or two way valves. The 9mm Self-Stick-Valve 2 way valve (inflate/deflate) will fit most newer kites as a inflate valve and is used on older systems as a inflate/deflate valve. One way valve lets air enter while pumping but stops air from going out. Simply squeeze valve to let air out. 1-way flap can be cut out to create a 2 way valve.
Tired of buying different types of valves for different kinds of bladders??
Why pay more for different kinds of valves that only stick to one material?

The purpose of this experiment was to describe the effect of consuming 350 ml of 1% chocolate milk 60 minutes before a pizza meal on subjective appetite and short-term food intake when compared to cola, a fruit drink and a water control in normal weight and overweight/obese 9-14 year old boys and girls. It is hypothesized that 1% chocolate milk will increase meal time satiation to a greater extent than other sugars-sweetened commercially available beverages. Food intake will be measured 60 minutes after the consumption of 350 ml of water, fruit drink, cola or 1% chocolate milk.

I want to become an airline pilot. I am currently 18 years of age and am studying for my A levels. Once I have finished my college education I hope to work in an aviation related job so I can gain valuable experience and earn some money to pay for my flight training. The questions which I have about flight training are as follows:
1. I am intending to do a modular course at Stapleford Flight Centre. I have heard from some people that airlines only really care about integrated students. Others have told me that yes some airlines prefer integrated students but the majority of airlines dont really care, especially the starting airlines like Ryanair and Flybe. Whats your opinion on the whole integrated vs modular debate?
2. Do airlines get fussy if you trained at more than two FTO's?
3. What key features should I be looking out for when I am selecting my FTO?
4. Does purchasing a SSTR really improve your chances of employment?
5. I have heard that if you 'network' you will have increased your chances of employment. My problem is where do you meet people who can help you? At the moment I can only think of hanging around flight clubs or airports, any more suggestions/ideas?
Thanks for all your help, I really appreciate it! Its my first post so i'll be looking foreward to see what the response is like!
Hello AAD.
Taking the CCM (formerly SSTR) is really up to you (see below) although I'm sure there will be many more suggestions.
1. Purpose: The CCM course exists to educate and socialize regional security practitioners into a "Community of Expertise" that values collaborative regional efforts at comprehensive crisis management and is equipped with the knowledge and tools needed to support those efforts. Additionally, the course seeks to build regional security capability thru the development of individual leader skills in critical thinking, communication and collaboration which can be applied not only to CCM situations but to any collaborative effort. The course is based on the broad notion that regional security is significantly enhanced by collaborative efforts at preventing, preparing for or responding to any crisis—natural or man-made—that threatens stability within nations within the context of national sovereignty. By helping others help themselves, the entire region benefits. 2. Description: This course is a comprehensive examination of current thinking about how to deal with both man-made and natural crises. Crises are comprehensive in nature; they involve, in interdependent ways, all elements of security (political, social, economic, military, etc.) and multiple, interactive players (domestic, international and non-governmental). The degree to which we can build resilience into our societies will greatly influence the long-term impact of any crisis. While crises are often thought of as time-bound, having a beginning and an end, in fact, they have deep roots in the past and long shadows into the future. A major skill involved in crisis management is the smooth interplay between routine activities (normally focused on building a better, more efficient society) and the extraordinary requirements of life saving and damage mitigation throughout the life-cycle of a crisis situation. Accordingly, course content focuses on three broad topical areas: (1) crisis assessments and condition-setting (2) transitions across the prevent-prepare-respond cycle (3) during- and post-crisis reconstruction. In addition to this conceptual framework, the CCM course also addresses CCM-task coalition building and operations, inter-agency coordination, stability trends analysis, preventative activities as well as international interventions, post-emergency reconstruction, transition shaping, and strategic communications. The course curriculum is generally divided into three major blocks: (1) Framing the Problem and Tools, (2) How to Think About Crisis-Related Nation-Building (3) Making Collaborative Crisis Response Work.
Course learning objectives are achieved by preface topical lectures, followed by "learning by doing" small-group activities. Seminars are activity-based. The course includes three learning objective reinforcing exercises: * Complex Problem Analysis * Integration of Lines of Effort: * Post-shock event reconstruction: Planning for a multinational, whole of government, civil society effort that synergistically develops all five major lines of effort towards restoring stability in the affected nation.All course attendees attain membership in an expanded network of contacts among security practitioners that includes their fellow class-mates and APCSS faculty as well as the APCSS alumni network and a regional CCM "community of expertise" via a dedicated web portal.
Modular flight training is exactly that: taking your PPL, CPL, IR, MCC, as well as all the bits in between, and counting them as separate modules within the long, twisty road of pilot training.
I am a commercial instructor and have been training modular and integrated students for over ten years. The airlines do prefer integrated students and many integrated providers have very good links with airlines.
However the cost of this training means that many students have to go for the modular route.
If you do modular training with one of the big two providers then you may still be able to take advantage of their airline contacts.

University of Michigan archaeologist discovers 16th century Spanish fort
The University of Michigan archaeologist Robin A. Beck Jr. discovered a 16th century fort in western North Carolina this week.
According to an article in The New York Times, the fort was located pretty far inland, just five miles north of Morganton, North Carolina.
Dr. Beck was working with other archaeologists from the University of New Orleans and Warren Wilson College in Asheville, N.C. when they found evidence of a fort's moat, that indicated the fort could definitely be the remains of Fort San Juan.
Fort San Juan was built in 1567 by Juan Pardo, an explorer who led an expedition from the Atlantic coast, inland from 1566-68:
A vast interior seemed open for the taking. This was almost 20 years before the failure of the English at Sir Walter Raleigh's "lost colony" near the North Carolina coast or their later successes in Virginia at Jamestown in 1607 and at Plymouth Rock in 1620 -- the 'beginnings' emphasized in the standard colonial history taught in American schools.
The Times wrote that Beck and his team first discovered the fort's moat when excavating a ceremonial Native American burial mound. The moat was indicated by different colored soil under the mound.
Part of the fort's defensive moat had been cut through the southern side of the mound. Dr. Neck said that further excavations and magnetometer subsurface readings showed that the moat appeared to extend more than 70 to 100 feet and measured nearly 12 feet wide and 6 feet deep, in a configuration of "typical European moats going back to the Romans."
Other remote sensing surveys showed subsurface anomalies suggesting burned timbers of the palisades and an irregularity that may well be ruins of the "strong house" inside, where tools, weapons and lead shot were stored. Investigating these artifacts is on the agenda for next summer's excavations, Dr. Beck said.

This is a bunch of shaved-hair art by Florida barber/artiste Radames Perez. As you can see, he knows his way around with a pair of clippers. Me? I can't even find my way around with Google Maps. That said, I've always wanted something cool shaved into my head. "Sooooooo...no more penises after you pass out?" Please, anything but another dong.
Hit the jump for a ton more of Radames' artistry including a Predator, Spartan warrior, Superman/Batman mashup logo, Spongebob, Mortal Kombat and Gears of War logos, a pretty gnarly Kratos that's colored in, and more.

bounce flash photography & white balance settings
A question that often comes up, is whether the white balance will change when bouncing flash. The answer is an obvious one – yes, the light will pick up any color cast from a non-white surface. But that is why we need to shoot in RAW. Then the decision about exact White Balance becomes less crucial.
The photograph above, is of Roz, and was taken during the recent flash photography workshops in Dublin, Ireland. Roz was Ireland's contestant in the 2010 Miss Universe contest, so it was quite a privilege to have her as one of our two workshop models!
The lighting in this image is simplicity itself: on-camera bounce flash, with the black foamie thing as a flag to block the light from the flash directly hitting her. Of course, the ambient light coming in through the window acts as a secondary light, helping with a bit of rim-light there and also in creating background lighting.
In getting the light from my on-camera flash to come in from a pleasing angle – short lighting – I had to bounce the flash off the wooden panelling in the room. This of course made for a far-too-warm white balance:
With this pull-back shot, you can see what the room looked like. For the photo at the top though, I bounced my flash off the wall to my right.
I knew the wooden panelling would make the color balance become very warm. So I guessed a 3700K white balance setting. It turned out to be fairly okay, but I still needed to fine-tune the White Balance as part of my normal RAW workflow for a pleasant color balance. The color of the background shifted as well, but this wasn't of any concern to me.
As a comparison, here is what my out-of-camera WB (at 3700K) looked like, with what it would've looked like as Daylight WB (set on the RAW file via ACR / Bridge)
Therefore my advice about off-color surfaces and bounce flash, is to try and get the WB as close as you can since it does help in judging the image's exposure from the camera's preview. But ultimately, don't sweat it – shoot in RAW, and concentrate on getting great lighting and also, keep the momentum and flow of the photo shoot going. Fussing over exact settings which can be finessed in post-processing, will only slow the photo session down.

Who We Are
As queers, we are part of an international movement for human rights that encompasses the movement for Palestinian liberation, and all other liberation movements. Since 2000, QUIT! has been one of the San Francisco Bay Area's most active and consistent voices for boycott, divestment & sanctions against Israel. More.
We are also part of a growing international queer movement to stop "pinkwashing" by the Israeli government and its supporters. Pinkwashing is a part of the Brand Israel public relations campaign which attempts to hijack the queer movement to promote ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people. We say no!
QUIT has regular bi-weekly meetings to discuss upcoming issues and plan actions. If you want to participate in these meetings, contact us for info by email to firstname.lastname@example.com.
QUIT also maintains a listserve that sends out selected articles, updates and news items scanned from various sources. If you want to subscribe to this listserve send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com.

In February, speakers from ASWAT - Palestinian Gay Women, al Qaws for Sexual and Gender Diversity in Palestine, and Palestinian Queers for BDS spoke to over 700 people in San Francisco and Berkeley, as part of a highly successful national tour. They talked about how harmful "pinkwashing" - the Zionist efforts to portray Israel as the only queer-friendly democracy in the Middle East - is to their struggle for equality and recognition.
After the tour, Palestinian Queers for BDS issued an open letter asking all queer institutions to decline invitations to visit Israel or partner with mainstream Israeli institutions.

Sire De Grugy: Gary Moore "not massively concerned" about the going
PICTURE: Mark Cranham (racingpost.com/photos)Cheltenham Festival: Moore thrilled with Champion favourite Sire
GARY MOORE cannot be confident Sire De Grugy will win the Queen Mother Champion Chase today, but he is confident he goes to post in the best possible shape.
Cheltenham seconds to two rivals who reoppose need explaining away, and the drying ground, described as good, good to soft in places, is hardly a plus, but the trainer can account for both defeats and is "not massively concerned" about the going.
Moore has taken last season's classy novice, who tops the Champion Chase betting at 10-3, to new heights this season, when a three-and a-quarter-length Cheltenham second to Kid Cassidy, who was receiving 10lb, has been the only reverse in a five-race campaign that has embraced wins in key trials at both Sandown and Ascot.
Having freshened up the eight-year-old since that last success almost two months ago, Moore could not be happier with him. He said: "His blood test has come back with no negatives and he's worked well, schooled well and eaten up well. It's all gone to plan."
Of those two Cheltenham defeats and the ground concerns, he added: "When Captain Conan beat him he got to the front sooner than he likes, and when he was beaten by Kid Cassidy I read the race wrong and he lost his confidence after a mistake at the second fence.
"I'd agree he's a better horse on softer ground, but it won't be any worse than when he won the Celebration Chase, his novice chase at Stratford, or even the Tingle Creek, so it's not a massive concern."
The going was changed to good, good to soft in places after racing on Tuesday and it remained that way on Wednesday morning.
Clerk of the course Simon Claisse said: "We had a dry night and I've left the going description as it was. The good to soft is primarily in the chute and I would say it is marginally quicker than the backend of yesterday."
The cross-country course, used for the Glenfarclas Handicap Chase at 4.00, is good to soft, soft in places and the weather is set to stay dry with temperatures increasing throughout the day.
Going report
Cheltenham: Chase and hurdle - good, good to soft in places; Cross-country - good to soft, soft in places
Huntingdon: Good to soft
Southwell: Standard
Kempton: Standard

Music to Your EarsThe Return of 500--Ready for some complicated math? Local hard rock outfit 500 (or Fivehundred, depending on who you talk to), which is made up of former members of Fatso and used to style themselves Mr. Spectacular, is back after calling it quits last year. Still with me? It seems they've filled out their sound with another guitar player, ratcheting up the supercharged trio to a four-piece. 500's triumphant returning show was at the Atomic Cantina a few weeks ago, but you can witness their undeniable face-rocking this Friday, May 26, at the Launchpad. It'll be a night of local breadwinners with Scenester and SuperGiant.
Mark Higashino Show Up!MONOTokyo's much heralded post-rockers pay Albuquerque a visitThere's a litany of adjectives that are almost always used when describing a band that fits, however loosely, into the realm of instrumental post-rock. These adjectives include: lush, layered, hypnotic and soaring, just to name a few. MONO can certainly be described using these terms, but what the words don't properly convey is the profound influence of emotion that pervades MONO's sound.
Randy Cremean Music MagnifiedLomitawith Reverend Deadeye and The MindySetSaturday, May 27, Burt's Tiki Lounge (21-and-over); free: Ray Jackson and his compatriots from Lomita started off with the straightforward intentions of being a country band. Like greedy kids in a candy store, Lomita's hunger for multiple genre num-nums caused them to branch out and create music that combines ambient tones with pseudo-psychedelia and pedal- and lap steel-aided riffs, which give the band a twanged-out indie rock flavor. Think of the band as a darker version of Pavement.
Music MagnifiedKenny LogginsSaturday, May 22, Isleta Casino (12-and-over [seriously]); $20-$40: Did you know that Kenny Loggins is "a sonic pioneer in the smooth jazz genre," has achieved 12 platinum albums during his career and won a 1980 Grammy for best male pop vocalist? (But his people want you to know that "the true measure of this man cannot be weighed in platinum and gold." The tiniest of tears just came to my eye.)
Flyer on the WallRock, Rock, RockSuperGiant, 500 and Scenester do the triple Friday night high-five. See this week's "Music to Your Ears" for slightly more info. Cover is $5 and it's not all-ages. Sorry, children. (LM)
Wes Naman SpotlightThe CompoundUnderage, overage or lying-about-your-age—this venue is all about the scene, not the greenJust about a year ago, Mayor Martin Chavez shoved the term "all-ages venue" into the mouths of every musician and music fan in town. With the simple threat of banning all-ages shows at venues that sell alcohol, a huge debate was sparked, music supporters marched and regulations passed enforcing precautions to prevent underage drinking. But all-ages shows have not been banned. The debate has polarized both sides—the city nearly accusing every all-ages show of directly contributing to underage drinking, and the music community screaming that banning alcohol sales will kill the all-ages scene. It isn't over.

Montgomery City Leaders Discuss Issues for 2013 The City of Montgomery takes a look at some of the issues it will bring in to the new year. Police are now investigating Montgomery's 32nd homicide. It happened last Thursday when a man wrecked his car after being shot. Mayor Todd Strange says the city's crime rate is something they continue to study. "Murders are very difficult. It's a crime of passion.... We have more police officers now than ever had in our history and I hope that we complete this year at that number," said Strange. Strange says in the meantime he is partnering with other agencies and discussing gun regulation. "We are working with our faith based organizations. We are working with psychologists and universities to really begin to try to understand. We are working with our mental health associations to get beds so those with mental illness can reside and not just have the street," said Strange. We also talked to Strange about the latest on the Montgomery Mall to hold city and county offices. The city wants to move the Governor's Square branch of the public library into the center portion of the mall. It will be joined by a police and fire facility and possibly a technology school. "There is a contract proposal for sale that conceivably be executed at the end of this year. Every day this week we have had some conversation about it," said Strange. Strange says he has high expectations for the mall in the next few months. |

This weekend has been a great one for the entire Denver Broncos organization, its legions of fans and for the inimitable Hall of Fame running back Floyd Little.
The team's open practice at INVESCO Field sat Mile High was a huge success, drawing over 20,000 rabid fans who enjoyed all aspects of the open practice, according to those who were there — I could not attend because I was in Canton, Ohio, at that time watching Floyd Little being inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
His induction speech played on the Thundervision scoreboard at the stadium, and several thousand fans stayed after the practice to watch it.
For Floyd, for me, and for thousands of other fans of the Broncos whose loyalty goes back to the 1960′s, this was a great moment, long anticipated and ultimately full of all the richness which we expected it to have.
Floyd's acceptance speech was hailed as the finest of the night in an evening that featured the induction of seven new members of the hall. This was no surprise to those of us who have known Floyd Little for a long time.
After the ceremonies, during the induction party for Floyd in a tent adjacent to the stadium in Canton, a euphoric Tom Jackson told me that someone from ESPN had expressed to him that it might have been unfortunate for Floyd to have his induction speech come between those of Jerry Rice and Emmitt Smith. But Tom said he just chuckled and replied, "Wait until you hear Floyd speak."
In addition, his presentation speech by son Marc Little was wonderful as well, focusing on how Floyd has long lived by the credo that he chooses to be an uncommon man.
He certainly has been uncommon in Broncos history, standing with John Elway as the team's only Hall of Famers to have played their entire pro careers in Denver.
It was very emotional for all of us during the ceremony and in the party tent afterward.
I sat among Floyd's family and friends, along with former Bronco general manager John Beake, ex-players Billy Thompson and Jerry Simmons, as well as national broadcaster Jim Gray. Author Thomas Mackie, a longtime Floyd booster, also was present, and among other Bronco alums who came for the Hall of Fame festivities were Fran Lynch (Floyd's roommate for all nine of his pro seasons), Tom Graham ( top linebacker in his day and father of current Bronco Daniel Graham), and Mike Kellogg, a backup fullback in the late 1960′s who now is a judge in the state of California.
Of course, fellow Hall of Famer Gary Zimmerman was very prominent on stage with the other 80 or so returning inductees. Former Bronco Willie Brown, certainly much more famous as a Raider, was on the stage as a returning inductee as well. Willie was an All-AFL defensive back already when the Broncos traded him to Oakland.
Players know players, and they appreciate greatness as only fellow players can — it was great to watch as Hall of Famers came, one after another, to embrace Floyd with sincere emotion as he joined their ranks. He even got a shout out by video tape from one of his fellow players at Syracuse University, Joe Biden, who now happens to be Vice President of the United States. That was not a first time, by the way, as Vice President Biden mentioned Floyd during his acceptance speech at Invesco Field two years ago, noting that he always thought Floyd Little might be joining him on a presidential platform someday.
If that sounds like heady stuff, which it is, remember that General Douglas MacArthur personally got involved in recruiting Floyd for West Point. Floyd chose Syracuse because he had made a pledge to the late Ernie Davis that he would attend Ernie's school. And Floyd Little never broke a promise.
But Floyd has never been just about being a player, and he had several hundred friends from outside of football who also made the pilgrimage to Canton to watch this moment in person.
The Bronco fans who watched him play always knew he was one of the game's greatest players, but most had given up on the thought that this final justice would be served as so many years passed by.
But a moment that is meant to come comes someday, and this weekend in Canton is that someday for Floyd Little, the Broncos, and football's greatest fans.
He has the yellow jacket, he has the bronze bust on display in the Hall of Fame, and on Sept. 26, when the Broncos host the Indianapolis Colts, Floyd Little will receive his Hall of Fame ring here in Denver.

Who has the time and money for an entire spa day? Busy moms deserve at least a little treat, such as a monthly manicure or a 15-minute chair massage.
One working mother says: "Working moms have a tendency to feel guilty because they either have to or want to work outside of the home. They feel guilty spending time away from their children and therefore have a more difficult time taking time for themselves during nights and weekends. This is where the lunch-hour of beauty comes in: Get yourself down to your favorite salon during lunchtime for whatever treatments you can fit in and afford from time to time."

NFPA Journal®, May/June 2013
By Matt Klaus
NFPA 25, Inspection, Testing and Maintenance of Water-Based Fire Protection Systems, focuses on wear-and-tear issues that can decrease the function of a water-based fire protection system and lead to ineffective system operation. Water-based systems have an excellent record of reliability, and most of the instances where these systems are ineffective or fail to operate involve causes that are easily preventable. According to NFPA data, 63 percent of systems that fail to operate are the result of the water supply being turned off. Lack of routine maintenance is another important factor in unsatisfactory system performance. An inspection, testing, and maintenance (ITM) program like the one outlined in NFPA 25 — including a new valve status test proposed for the 2014 edition — is an easy way to maintain the reliability of these systems.
YOUTUBE VIDEO NFPA's Matt Klauss details some of the important changes fo the 2014 edition of NFPA 25.
Keeping up with the evolution of NFPA 25 is important, and the 2014 edition features an assortment of major changes. Those include ITM provisions for pump-related inspections; fuel supply testing for diesel-driven fire pumps; the definition of "sprinkler system"; inspecting the insides of sprinkler pipes; an expansion of the standard's scope to include water-mist systems; new ITM provisions added for NFPA 13D systems in residential board and care occupancies; and the addition of valve-status testing to ensure that water is reaching the sprinkler system.
Anyone present at the NFPA Annual Technical Meeting in Las Vegas in 2010 no doubt recalls the debate over whether to change the frequency for electric-driven fire pump operating tests from weekly to monthly in the 2011 edition. This change, which was made, was very controversial. On one side were the pump experts and contractors who believed that weekly testing was a key factor in giving fire pumps their stellar performance record for reliability. On the other side were the people who had to pay for 52 operating tests a year, as opposed to 12, for a slight increase in reliability.
Following the publication of the 2011 edition, the Fire Protection Research Foundation (FPRF) initiated a project to look at the collection of fire pump data that would settle the debate on the proper frequency of fire pump operating tests. The research project used the failure rate for diesel and electric fire pumps to calculate the reliability for each pump type based on both weekly and monthly testing.
Fire pump operating test frequency Chapter 8, which addresses fire pump-related ITM provisions in NFPA 25, underwent some of the most significant changes for the 2014 edition.

Changes to NFPA 25, Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance of Water-Based Fire Protection Systems (2014 Edition) Friday, June 14, 8 a.m.–noon
The debate over the previous edition spilled over into the development of the 2014 edition. After reviewing this information at both of the committee meetings, the NFPA 25 technical committee made a few modifications to the requirements for operating tests in section 8.3. For diesel pumps, the baseline requirements did not change and the operating test must still be conducted weekly. The committee did add a provision that allowed for an alternate test frequency to be used when the revised frequency is supported by a risk analysis.
The requirements for electric-driven pumps were more substantially modified. Based on the data gathered from the FPRF project, it was determined that not all pumps, and more specifically the buildings that house them, would benefit from reducing the number of operating tests per year from 52 to 12. The technical committee decided that, either due to the risk associated with the building or the type or arrangement of pump for controller, certain fire pump arrangements needed to be tested more frequently. As such, the 2014 edition of NFPA 25 will require electric-driven pumps in high-rise buildings, electric-driven vertical turbine pumps, and pumps using limited service controllers to undergo weekly operating tests. For all other electric-driven fire pumps, a monthly operating test is still appropriate. The risk analysis that can be conducted for diesel-driven pumps also applies to electric driven pumps.
Diesel fuel quality check Another hot topic in Chapter 8 was that of testing of the fuel supply for diesel-driven fire pumps. This concept was discussed at the first committee meeting and was rejected by the committee, but during the report-on-comments meeting the idea was resurrected, and now an annual test to analyze the quality of the fuel is required.
Water and other materials such as waxes, soaps, and additives can contribute to steel tank corrosion and the development of microbiological growth at the fuel and water interface. The development of microbiological growth can lead to damaged systems components and the potential failure of the pump. The cost of conducting the fuel quality test was considered to be reasonable, less than $100 for test materials, and the benefits to the system and avoidance of potential impairments were justified.
Definition of 'sprinkler system' During the revision cycle that generated the 2013 edition of NFPA 13, Installation of Sprinkler Systems, the technical committee responsible for the definition of a "sprinkler system" modified it to essentially define a system as the piping network downstream of a control valve, water source, flow switch, and drain. In the case of high-rise buildings, the system piping that is downstream of a floor control valve assembly (FCVA) is now defined as a "sprinkler system".
Putting this new concept in to practice, consider a 50-story building that is sprinklered throughout. The entire building was once considered to be protected by a single sprinkler system. With the revised definition, the building is now considered to have 50 sprinkler systems, one on each floor.
That NFPA 13 definition for "sprinkler system" has been added to the 2014 edition of NFPA 25. The impact of this change is that wherever the standard requires an ITM task to be completed for a "system," it will need to be done for each floor of the building that has a FCVA, or each portion of a building that is sectioned off by a control valve, flow switch, and drain. The greatest impact for the application of this definition would be the internal assessment required by 14.2.1 and 14.2.2, where every other floor of a high-rise building would need to have an internal assessment every five years. In previous editions of the standard, the common application of this provision was to open the system and conduct an internal inspection in two or three areas of the building. This approach is no longer appropriate due to the modification of the definition, which now requires the system to be opened up on every other floor as described in 14.2.2.
Owners who do not wish to conduct the assessment on every other floor of a building every five years would need to illustrate that an alternate assessment program is appropriate through a risk assessment.
Internal assessments Chapter 14 of NFPA 25 saw a significant modification related to conducting what the 2011 edition referred to as an "internal inspection." The concept of an internal inspection will now be referred to as an "internal assessment," which includes looking inside the pipe for potential material degradation, obstructions, and the development of organic growth that can have a negative impact on the performance of sprinkler systems.
This concept was removed from the standard during the first committee meeting, but it was brought back for discussion later in the process and included a significant change from the 2011 edition. The 2014 edition requires these assessments to be conducted every five years — the same frequency as in the 2011 edition — except that an owner can modify this frequency based on a risk analysis that considers the building's history and potentially its geographic location.
The internal assessment was originally added as a way to identify organic growth inside the system piping, such as zebra and quagga mussels that are historically found in the Great Lakes region and along the Mississippi River. Other sprinkler systems can be susceptible to organic growth because they draw from raw water sources. For installations that have no history of organic growth, are located in geographic regions where sprinkler systems are not prone to organic growth, or that use treated or filtered water, a revised internal assessment frequency may be appropriate pending the proper analysis. It is important to note that this assessment must be conducted for each sprinkler system, which would be each floor of a building that has a floor control valve assembly.
Water mist systems Historically, NFPA 25 had extracted the ITM requirements for water mist systems from NFPA 750, Water Mist Fire Protection Systems. Following a review of the scope of the technical committees by the NFPA Standards Council, however, "water mist systems" was added to the scope of the Technical Committee for Inspection Testing and Maintenance of Water-Based Systems. As a result, the ITM requirements for water mist systems now fall under NFPA 25.
This modification is more organizational than technical, but users of the codes should know that the information will be found in NFPA 25 and will no longer be contained in NFPA 750.
Residential board and care occupancies Chapter 1 of NFPA 25 clearly states that sprinkler systems installed according to NFPA 13D, Installation of Sprinkler Systems in One- and Two-Family Dwellings and Manufactured Homes, do not fall under the purview of the standard. This is due to the relative simplicity of the 13D system and the limited number of components requiring inspection and maintenance activities when compared to systems installed in larger, more complex commercial environments. As a result, NFPA 25 has explicitly excluded 13D systems from its scope.
Over the years, however, other occupancies that are not simple one- and two-family homes, such as assisted living facilities, group homes, and various types of short-term residential shelters, have begun allowing NFPA 13D systems to be installed as a means of providing safe but cost-effective sprinkler system coverage. NFPA 101, Life Safety Code, permits this arrangement for "small residential board and care facilities." Since NFPA 25 does not govern this type of system, NFPA 101 provided a series of ITM requirements for this application, referring back to NFPA 25 for the tasks and frequencies. A new chapter detailing the ITM requirements for small residential board and care facilities has been added to NFPA 25, allowing owners and inspectors who typically look to NFPA 25 for ITM tasks to also find information that would otherwise only be located in NFPA 101.
Valve status test As noted at the outset, the most common cause of a sprinkler system's failure to operate is a closed valve preventing water from reaching the system. To address this common problem, the 2014 edition of NFPA 25 will now require a valve status test to be conducted whenever a valve is returned to service. This simple test allows the owner, inspector, or facility manager to confirm that not only do the valves appear to be open, but also that water is in fact flowing through the control valve that had been recently closed.
The purpose of completing a valve status test is to verify that the control valves upstream of the test connection are not closed. It does not provide an absolute assurance of an unobstructed water flow or fully opened valves; instead, it provides a reasonable check against a fully closed valve or dropped valve gate within the water supply upstream of the test. This test does not add a significant cost to the ITM program for a building, as it only takes a few minutes. Many inspection companies have been conducting valve status tests for years as a way of adding another layer of quality control.

How far can they go? With a brand new roster being worked on, can the trailblazers make the playoffs? Getting great additions, but losing the starting center for the trailblazers, what is your opinion? Can they do better?
Posted 07/12/2013 4:26 PM
Posted 07/12/2013 5:21 PM
I think we will play at least the 1st round of the Playoffs, more then that will depend on the development of the youngers players of the team (half the team)
I can see us having a solid season without major injuries...
Lillard, Mathews, Batum, Aldridge and Lopez, give us a strong and balanced starting 5
Then i expect our bench rotation to be something like: Mcollum, Wright, Robinson and Leonard. + Watson, Barton, Crabbe, Claver and Freeland trying to enter the rotation.
So the way i see it will be essential for us that our rookies and 2nd year players take a step foward to help the team.
Posted 07/12/2013 11:23 PM
I personally think we can make the playoff's this year if we all can stay healthy avoiding any majors type's of injuries . Knocking on wood while crossing fingers . GO BLAZERS !!!!!!!!!
Posted 07/12/2013 11:37 PM
I agree with all of the above. With the improved bench and Lillard going into his second year of his career, he can only get better and so can the blazers. I think a first round exit out of the playoffs would actually be a really good step into the right direction.
Posted 07/13/2013 5:51 AM
I am not sure OK, Spurs did anything much in the off season a lot of time left for OK, The Spurs time is against them. The Lakers are kinda self destructing which is a good sign 8-). Warriors made a lot of noise, reshuffled, Lets see what happens without David Lee, The Jazz have been quiet, The Nuggets I have not heard too much, Grizz have a tough team and the Timberwolves have made some moves. I almost forgot Houston they got 2 solid centers so let us see what they do.
I would say we have a pretty good shot at making the playoff's now if get the 7th or 8th seed I say we are out in the first round if we happen to get the 6th seed or better I would say our chances are pretty good in going on to the second.
Posted 07/15/2013 11:06 AM
i think that if spurs does become no.1 seed in the west, we should be no.8 seed in the west because we totally killed them at their place last year, plus damian, batum, and aldridge all goes off together when they play against the spurs. if spurs are not no.1 in the west, i would think that the warriors will be the best team in the west since they added more defense in igoudala, if they do, we need to look at no.8 seed in the west. imagine curry's 3 pointer against lillard 3's pointer. blazers vs. warrior match up could be one of the greatest match up ever. i just want to play against spurs and the warriors at least the first 2 round.
Posted 07/15/2013 10:09 PM
Posted 07/16/2013 6:11 AM
I think we can get a 6 or 7th seed this season. With the addition of Lopez as a rim protector and the additional ball handler in McCollum and Watson, we have two off the weapons we were missing last season. Our team is also MUCH MUCH deeper with T-Rob and Wright off the bench and if Batum can play healthy and be as good as he was before the all-star break last season then we could even be looking at a 5th seed and a matchup with GSW or Memphis.
OKC and San Antonio are still the 2top teams in the west and I think the Clippers will get the 3rd seed. From there it's wide open. I'm gonna go out on a limb and bet that Denver and the Lakers both miss the playoffs. Too much turmoil in those franchises. I like Brian Shaw, but Denver just won't be the same without Iggy and more importantly, George Karl. Same goes for Memphis. Lionel Hollins got more out of that team than anyone expected. I doubt they will get the 5th seed this year.
My money is on us making the playoffs and with a good push after the All star game we could get the 5th seed and beat whoever gets the 4th seed.

our bench should be scary this year. with no more defnse problem, i see us go high as no.4 in the west, if our bench have some problem once in a while, we probably go as low as no.7 in the west. i think that lakers will tank for andrew wiggins and lebron james

For The Tennessean
It was about 15 years ago that Toby McKeehan, aka TobyMac, was reaching millions of mainstream fans as part of Christian pop/rap/rock group dc Talk, whose hit âBetween You and Meâ was seemingly everywhere on pop radio.
Now, the Franklin resident is reaching millions again, flirting with the mainstream as a solo artist with a hot new album and a hot career to match.
In the past few months, TobyMac, 48, became the first Christian artist in 15 years to hit the top of the all-genre Billboard 200 chart with his album, âEye on It.â And he took home the American Music Award for favorite contemporary/inspirational artist.
Much like Amy Grant in the 1990s, TobyMac is the face of Christian music for the mainstream world.
âItâs nothing I regularly like to wrap my mind around,â he said during a phone interview from the road, on an arena tour that lands in Nashville tonight.
âThereâs nothing Iâm striving for. Iâm just a guy surrounded by great people trying to do the best I can,â he said. âAnd itâs with that intention, Iâm hopeful that Iâm reflecting that in a beautiful way.â

Three Newton County residents were recently announced as dean's list honorees at Shorter University for the fall semester of 2013.
A Newton High School freshman will soon travel to the nation's capital for an honors-only program that will focus on teaching aspiring medical professionals more about medical science and honor some of America's highest-achieving high school students.
Graduation rates reported for Newton High School and the Newton County School System have increased after an adjustment made by the Georgia Department of Education.
A presentation given to the Newton County School Board May 19 by Sharp Learning Center Principal Gabriel Burnette showed that things are not nearly as bleak at the alternative school as people often believe.
Newton County School System was selected as one of the 25 school systems in the United States to receive a highly competitive 2009 HP Innovations in Education grant. Targeted at school systems serving students in grades six through 12, the grant program is designed to help educators address the need for raising student achievement in math and science and increase student awareness in high-tech college and career opportunities.
To date, 66 out of 282 seniors have been offered 146 scholarships totaling $8,375,800. A total of 58 different colleges and universities from 16 different states and the District of Columbia contributed to this year's class total. Presently, this outstanding class has accepted music, military and merit-based offers. This does not include the HOPE scholarship, which is calculated separately. The class total also includes 45 local scholarships donated through 34 different organizations totaling over $186,000.
The third annual Institute for Pedagogy in the Liberal Arts (IPLA), sponsored by Oxford College's Center for Academic Excellence (CAE) and Emory University's Center for Faculty Development and Excellence (CFDE), concluded today on the Oxford College campus. Participants included faculty from Oxford College, Emory College, Georgia Gwinnett College and Newton High School.
Members of the Newton County Board of Education got their first look at the general fund budget for the next school year and with little money coming in, system administrators are trying hard to remain fiscally sound.
Eastside High School's Valedictorian and Salutatorian have enjoyed a healthy dose of competition for the last few years. In many of the same classes, both Leaha Wynn and Ariel VanLeuven seem to be friends and not begrudge one another their successes proving they aren't just exceptional students, but exceptional young ladies as well.
As a result of a generous donation made by Caldwell & Cowan Funeral Home, three Netbooks have been purchased for each of the Academic Resource classes at Alcovy, Eastside and Newton high schools and one for Sharp Learning Center.
To date, 52 out of 354 seniors have been offered 115 scholarships totaling $5,704,824. There were a number of different colleges and universities from across the nation that contributed to this year's class total. This includes all types of scholarships, such as academic, sports, military, music, band and merit-based offers. The class total includes 39 local scholarships donated through 22 different organizations totaling $110,450.
To date, 50 out of approximately 300 seniors have been offered 69 scholarships totaling $2,148,543. A total of 18 different colleges and universities from nine states contributed to this year's class total. Presently, they have accepted $1,978,343 of that amount. This includes all types of scholarships, such as academic, athletic, military and merit-based offers. This does not include the HOPE scholarship, which is calculated separately. The class total also includes 31 local scholarships donated through 21 different organizations totaling over $32,000.
Newton County School System (NCSS) students matched or outperformed their statewide peers on the 2009 Georgia High School Graduation Test (GHSGT). As a result, the district's pass percentage rate increased in every category of the test in 2009, with the greatest gains in science and social studies, where the district pass percentage rates increased by three points, going from 86 percent in 2008 to 89 percent for both subjects in 2009. The district's pass rate for English language arts increased by one percentage point, going from 91 percent in 2008to 92 percent in 2009 – two points higher than ...
Being named Newton High School's Valedictorian and Salutatorian is an honor but for Sarah Lanners and Geoff Nolan, it's not too much of a surprise since both have worked diligently throughout their high school careers to get to this point.
Walking to a better future: More than 200 students at Oxford College of Emory University participated in the commencement ceremony on Saturday that marked their transition from the 2-year college to the second half of their university education at Emory.

About This Activity
