And Christmas is a time of year that just makes this feline all the more curious about all of the lights, sounds and smells. His curious nature often gets him in trouble, as this 36-page storybook explains. It's available in stores now or at lb-kids.com.
Little, Brown and Company, $7.99 Ages 3 and older

More inspiration
Just in response to this post, thin privilege is being able to listen to 'Big Girl, You Are Beautiful' without feeling uncomfortable and skipping over it in your Mika playlist, not because you don't like the song, but because it feels wrong to listen to a song that says the exact opposite of what you've been taught to believe about fat people, and thus yourself.
This is so true. Reminds me of how bicyclist privilege is being able to listen to I want to ride my bicycle without literally having to throw up.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Blue Jacket Flint is a great school. We have a great principal that cares about the well being of the students and the staff. Most of the teacher are very good with the kids. There is a few that do raise their voices and yell at the students to much, we have been luck not to have those teachers. I would like to say that the art and music teacher are amazing!!!!!. I could not ask for better special teachers. My daughter also likes the gym and library teachers. My only complaint is that it seems like there is only a handful of us parents that volunteer and help out. I understand both parent probably work full time so not alot of parent can help but it would be nice to have more parent support.
Teachers especially in the upper grades make frequent use of "group punishment" (loss of recess, silent lunch, extra homework, yelling at the class), for the misbehavior of only a few students. High-achieving well-behaved students are left to teach themselves. Parent-teacher conferences are minimal and superficial in that parents are shown standardized test scores and sent on their way with no discussion of how to further challenge a high-performing student. Nightly homework often exceeds the district standard of 10 minutes per grade level. There is a serious lack of joy in the upper grade level class environments. I agree with the prior reviewers who stated that if a parent has a choice, find another school for your child unless you want your child to detest school for the rest of his/her life.
Interesting how most of the positive comments are from teachers that obviously work there. This school needs an overhaul with an attitude adjustment towards the children that are forced to walk through the doors everyday! If I could afford to move and put my kids in a different school, I would do it in a heartbeat! If you want your child's love for learning crushed like a pancake...bring them to this school.
Very supportive PTA. Many activities for students. Choir, strings, art, band, student council, morning announcer, fitness, community involvement, physical education, library, and computer labs. The teachers are caring and work very hard to make sure each child is learning, no matter what their challenges. Parents are active and supportive. A great school for every student!
I have greatly enjoyed my teaching experience at Bluejacket Flint. The staff, students, and parents of BJF are a close family always supporting one another to ensure success of all. Teachers collaborate on a weekly basis to create positive and memorable learning experiences. Our parents go above and beyond with their involvement in and out of the classroom. Students are polite, hardworking, and have many opportunities to participate in activities and leadership positions. I feel very fortunate to be part of this family!
i went to this skool last year. it was truly a gr8 experience. i met all of my friends there. but i have to disagree with ther review about no extra copys. my teachers always gave me and extra if i needed one. there was alot of homework, but they always gave us like 30 min to do it, i liked all the teachers i had and they were willing to help me with the work. may i add when i went there we didnt have a VP so it may be more strict now but idk
Our children are transfer students to Bluejacket-Flint. We chose Bluejacket-Flint because of the outstanding staff and we knew that our children would get a quality education in a positive learning atmosphere. Bluejacket-Flint is a wonderful school where the teachers and faculty are amazing and truly care for the students. I am proud to send my kids to Bluejacket-Flint!
All three of my children have gone to school at Bluejacket-Flint. I have had nothing but positive experiences there! The teachers truly care about the children and set a very high standard of expectations for their students. My children went on to middle school and high school very well prepared thanks to the training they received at BJF! I owe a great deal of thanks to all the teachers who helped my children along the way.
BJF is a wonderful place to be a teacher and student! Parents are extremely supportive and eager to help in the classroom. They work together with teachers to help their children, as well as other children be successful in learning. Students at BJF work hard and participate in many extra-curricular activities such as math club, choir and a fitness club. Students and teachers are constantly rising awareness, money and goods for those less fortunate. It's a wonderful place to be!
Winner of Kindest School in Kansas City! Loving, hard working teachers and staff. Six Standards of Excellence in reading and math! Award winning programs and recipient of numerous educational grants! Atmosphere is positive and productive. Students are well behaved and love to come to school!
I have the same problem as the last parent. Everytime my child gets in trouble for talking they expect me to take him to the doctor to get medicated. One teacher told me at a parent teacher conference that "I guarantee the problem won't stop until he is medicated" which were her exact words. After taking my son to numerous doctors, we find out he is not ADHD and it still seems to come up at every parent teacher conference. I have had to deal with so many problems at this school that my recommendation is that if you have another option in a school, go there.
BJF is a really god school because everyone is on board when there is a project. They take part in many physical activities and they try to keep the school clean as far as the halls, students, and the recycling. It Rocks!
My son has attended Bluejacket Flint for almost seven years now and the overall experience has been good. The leadership at the school with Dr. Tinsley and the new Vice Principal is excellent. Kids for the most part seem to listen to the teachers and respect each other. I have noticed a lack of male teachers in the school. The majority of teachers are female and I've heard that some give special treatment to the female students there.
This School is asome!

Prosessional Standing: Model/Video Vixen
About me
Hello, I am Yarisenia Sanchez. I am going by way of The Dominican Barbie alternatively. I am totally Dominican born within the Dominican Republic and raised in Santa Monica, California. I at the moment reside in Orlando, Florida. I've been doing music videos for just about 4 and a 1/2 years now. I suppose that you can say im professional on this trade. Being 25, my objectives are to proceed to pursue my desires within the video trade in addition to craft a job in different varieties of leisure in order that I've one thing to fall back on after I put aside the music video world and/or totally retire from it.

Daughter of a model and pageant woman and a future CEO, Yaris gave the impression to be destined to success. On the other hand, for twelve years previous to, Yaris needed to struggle for that success she appeared to be destined for. Idolizing ladies corresponding to Tyra Banks and Kimora Lee and gazing the gorgeous ladies who graced the television screens, Yaris knew where she needed her success to be shaped.

The first in her household to head to college as a way to pursue greater education, she needed to do everything she may to grace these silver screens.

Certainly, Yaris did things precisely her manner gracing a couple of magazines such as Hip Hop Weekly and Smooth Girl in addition to videos as to "Beamer, Benz, or Bentley" through Lloyd Banks, "Lights out" via Fabulous, and "Bottoms Up" by Trey Songz. She presently continues to be doing videos from time to time in addition to print modeling. "The highway ahead of me is rarely-ending. I do know there are some objects along the way in which looking to throw curves and hills however I'll by no means attain a dead finish."

Winter Storm Nemo
February 8 - 10, 2013
Barring an early-spring blockbuster, Nemo will assuredly go down as the most potent winter storm of the 2012-13, despite affecting a much smaller geographical area than some of its fellow storms.
Snow fell at extreme rates of 5 to 6 inches per hour in parts of Connecticut, piling up to a top total of 40 inches at Hamden, potentially breaking an all-time statewide 24-hour snowfall record pending further scientific review.
Portland, Maine, had its greatest snowstorm of record with 31.9 inches. Winds gusted over hurricane force at many locations, including Boston; the storm was so severe that almost every anemometer in southern New England eventually succumbed to technical glitches or outright outages.
Over 500,000 customers lost power; motorists on the Long Island Expressway were stranded for hours as over 30 inches of snow piled up on central and eastern parts of the island.
Significant coastal flooding battered the coast of eastern Massachusetts, including Nantucket Island, as well as parts of the New Jersey shore.

Winterlicious at Canoe
Is it fixed? Has anyone actually ever been?
We've been trying to get a 'licious reservation at Canoe ever since the program started. Never been able to get anything other than a busy signal or "sorry, we're all booked up."
My wife and two of her colleagues started calling at 10 o'clock this morning, when they allegedly started taking reservations. None of them got through.
Is this like a radio contest, or is it all a big fraud?
I too tried calling today with my amex and no cigar. All I can say is that it's likely that most of the people in the nearby office towers who normally would never even think of Canoe as a lunch spot were busily booking team lunches.
I should go over there tomorrow in person and give it a try.
re: spades
I tried to go in person to book winterlicious couple of years ago since I work in that area and they said they only take reservation by phone ??!! Keep calling, eventually it will get through.
I've gone twice for a winterlicious lunch in the past few years, but only because I have persistent and *lucky* friends with Amex cards. Although the second time the menu didn't really appeal to me so I ordered a lobster sandwich a la carte. Afterward, I decided to not even bother trying, as it seems to be more about hype, competition and bragging rights ("that's right, I got a winterlicious reservtion at Canoe once!"). I would suggest just going for lunch on a regular day and save yourself the aggravation. There's plenty of other reservations in the sea!
I got through but I had tried from 10am to about 11:30am, with only a busy signal for the hour and a half. Then by fluke my mom picked up the phone to dial the number around 12 and it rang. Then that put me on queue for about 20-30 minutes before someone actually spoke to me and took my reservation. Surprisingly there were a lot of time slots left on what I had thought was a prime night (Saturday). And ironically, while frustrated with Canoe in that first hour and a half, I randomly dialed Auberge's number and got through and made a reservation with them as well, just in case Canoe didn't pan out. So now I have 2 reservations. It's really all pure luck. Good luck!
I intend on showing up for lunch at the bar as usual and asking for the Winterlicious menu. We'll see.
i have gone to a canoe winterlicious and i personally wasn't all that impressed. the service was good but the food was just ok. a bit bland and nothing entirely impressive about it. however, all the aromas wafting from every other dish on the regular menu were to die for.
i think they just hype themselves up by not answering the phone. i also wouldn't be surprised if they did tried to make themselves "rare" so that they could also save some seats for any regulars or businesses.
After being foiled by the busy signal in previous years we finally got 'licious reservations last summer and again this year. Last time I went it was well worth it; excellent food, exceptional service.
As Cinderella said, it's really just luck. Give it some random stabs today (and tomorrow; they hold non-Amex tables for Thursday).
According to the "rules" of Winterlicious... if you go to any of the participating restaurants they HAVE to present you with the option of ordering the Winterlicious menu or they will not be invited to participate the next year. So just make a regular reservation and ask for the menu!
i worked at canoe for a year and a half. the winterlicious wait time on the phones is NOT to build up hype. we had to turn over three phones lines and designate 3 staff members strictly dedicated to handle the volume of calls during the 'licious times of year.
i do agree though, that you're better off saving your money and eating at canoe during non-'licious. winterlicious is awful, for the industry, for the dining public, and for the food and service that you get for your money.
i hate it.
re: vox
I do agree that winterlicious does not give you the real experience of a restaurant. The items on the winterlicious menu usually cannot be found in the regular menu, it is usually cheaper food.
Most of the top restaurants does not even participate in the 'licious' events.
Winterlicious only give you a feel of the atmosphere of the restaurant, this is what I see it.
Try makeing your reservation online with Opentable.com
Or to the Oviver Web site
Why does everyone want to go to Canoe?? Get over it! There are over 80 restaurants participating. If you really want to go to Canoe so bad....dont go to any liscious restaurants, and save your $200 for a nice 'real' night out at Canoe after the event is over!
I got in last year with a little bit of luck.
We wanted to go on a Sunday for an early dinner (like 5pm) so that helped.
My take? It's a really nice place with a great view but probably not worth the hullabaloo.
I'm happy we went because it was nice and I can cross it off my list and not have to try again. It wasn't as good as Auberge du Pommier.
But the toughest reservations I've ever tried for where there and Bymark and, frankly, it's not worth the hassle in the end.
I think it was Canoe that had a separate phone line and you could only call between 1 and 3 or something odd like that for 'licious reservations.
If you REALLY want to go there, just splurge and go there one day when it's not Winterlicious.
Otherwise find somewhere else. Booking dinner shouldn't be like trying to get U2 tickets.
I'm still not sure why Winterlicious gets such a bad rap. I've enjoyed it the last 2 years, and will go and enjoy it again this year. I'm hardly rich, and it gives me the chance go eat at some of the places I can only usually dream of.
I was just told they are fully booked up, but may be releasing some lunch space later today or tomorrow. Not sure it's worth the hassle anymore.......
I think that some restaurants are just as "cheap" if you order a la carte 3 separate menu items, which is not supposed to be the idea of winterlicious/summerlicious. As for Canoe, I tried all morning and kept getting a busy signal, that's why I'm trying Jump. Eventually I guess I'll get to go to Canoe, but it probably won't be for the Licious times.
re: sexyaznboy
hi all. i have winterlicious reservations at Canoe this Friday at 2:15 pm, but can't make that seating. does anyone have Canoe reservations that they are willing swap? cheers.
re: jp888
I went to Canoe for Winterlicious lunch this year, never having been there before, and it was incredible! The shrimp pate appetizer was amazing. Very fresh and flavourful. My friends had the lobster bisque, which they enjoyed but couldn't really taste the lobster. I chose the pork as a main, as recommended by our server. Very tender and juicy! My friends had the salmon and really enjoyed it. It was very fresh and soft. For dessert, I had the expresso torte...nothing spectacular but decent. The bread was good too! Overall I highly recommend it! It was worth the effort it took to get a reservation.
Other restaurants I went to this year:
1) Truffles - pretty terrible. The beef gave me a stomach ache. - over salty and tough!
2) Vertical - not bad but not worth the $25
3) Sassafraz - very good...almost as good as Canoe, except for the lemon dessert, which was a bit dry and hard. The cod main was small but delicious, and the soup was pretty good too.

Tattoos have become the ubiquitous cliché of subversive cool.
All the fashion news of the week that's fit to reprint.
Watching the red carpet coverage Sunday night before the Academy Awards, I thought that everything prior to Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's arrival near the end of the hour seemed like a paltry preamble. Both were nominated for Best Actor awards, and they certainly dressed the part. Pitt was perfectly attired — no business-suit straight tie, no black shirt or any other gimmicks. In other words, no "creative" black tie; Pitt went for old Hollywood style. He wore a Tom Ford single-breasted notched-lapel tuxedo and black bow tie, with black studs on his shirt.


text: 18th May Short URL http://tmblr.co/ZnakayLj42ey Zoom Info Zoom Info Zoom Info Zoom Info Zoom Info stfuconservatives: ruineshumaines: by Carli Davidson "These photos of Ramen Noodle are from an ongoing project of differently abled pets I started in 2010. I began to wonder more about the lives of these animals and their owners. These are people who've opted to keep their animals alive, to change diapers, to buy apparatuses, to put in extra time, money, and effort to make their friends comfortable. "I want to show how interesting these animals can be and share some of their amazing stories of survival and recovery. Some of the animals are rescued from abuse and neglect, some are a family pet that has gotten older, or been in an accident. So far all of my stories have ended in what seems to be a very positive symbiotic relationship between animal and owner, and Ramen Noodle is certainly one of these. "Ramen Noodle was born with four legs. He was probably a mill puppy, inbred to achieve his tiny size. When he was eight months old, his first owner brought him to the vet, with a broken arm. Unfortunately the owner did not properly care for his injury, she didn't come back to get the cast checked until nine weeks later. At that point, to no ones surprise, the arm was nearly eaten away by gangrene. By then, Ramen Noodle was listless and refused food. It was a wonder he survived. "After weeks of intensive care, the owner was given the option of signing him over to the clinic or being reported to animal services. 'I really don't think his first owner wanted to hurt him. I think they just didn't understand all the care that goes into having an injured animal,' recalls Jaime Salata Van Tassel, who had been his clinic caretaker. She adopted him, have already been won over by Ramen while acting as his lead nurse and caring for him in her home. "A second injury cost Ramen his other front leg, this time he jumped of a chair and broke the bone. Again, one of the effects of interbreeding dogs for small size is week bone, so his single teacup poodle arm broke so badly it could not be mended. While Jaime was devastated, Ramen surprised everyone and bounced back. Three weeks later, he was learning to walk on two legs. "Ramen gets around the house on his hind legs. I've watched him run at full-speed for toys, and to play with other dogs, he is essentially unrestricted despite his lack of front arms. Like any young, happy dog, he loves attention and food. "Ramen and Jamie show us that a dog can be just as happy as any other pet after an amputation. Jaime can provide real perspective as the owner of a pet with disabilities. "'Once they're healed and they're running, they never think twice about what happened to their arm,' she says. 'That's how it was with Ramen Noodle and any amputation I've seen. Once the animal gets through the pain and the medication and the understanding that they have to do things a little different, it's like it never happened.'" Your daily dose of tear-inducing kindness to animals. -Jess (via stfuconservatives) reblog 3057

Orange exec says developing markets can't sustain 'gas guzzlers' iOS, Android, Windows PhoneVice President of Devices Yves Maitre of European mobile operator Orange likened the iPhone, Android handsets and Windows Phones to fuel-inefficient cars, saying that the "gas guzzlers" aren't good choices for developing markets the carrier plans to enter.
In an interview with All Things D on Thursday, Maitre said that current mobile operating systems are not lightweight enough in both cost and bandwidth usage to be a feasible option for developing markets.
The Orange executive concedes that Apple's iOS and Google's Android has created a rich mobile ecosystem for mid to high-end phones which has allowed Orange to build a strong lineup of devices in its major European markets. That expensive ecosystem doesn't translate to the "6 billion" possible smartphone users in emerging markets like China and India, which may not be able to support data-heavy plans or expensive feature-rich devices.
Maitre used the automobile business as an analogue for the current state of smartphone technology, saying that when he was growing up in France, the big-block eight cylinder cars from Detroit were idolized. As the world realized that gas was a limited resource, the gas guzzlers from America ceded their position to more economical six or four cylinder options like those made famous by Japanese auto makers. The same is true of the mobile OS environment, the resource in this case being bandwidth.
Even Google's open Android OS, which enabled OEMs to produce relatively cheap devices, is said to be too resource-intensive as it continues to add new features in its fierce competition with Apple's iOS.

I cannot run an eight-cylinder car because it is too expensive, said Maitre. This is especially true in emerging markets where smartphone may have the draw, but consumers lack the funds to hold pre-paid data plans.
Customers in developing areas may be willing to pay a $30 premium on the average $54 Orange handset to upgrade to a smartphone, but it is doubtful that they will be able to spend another $100.
If we are not in a position to give them a smartphone at $80, we will miss the six billion, Maitre said in reference to the number of possible customers, adding that Orange will use other operating systems if needed to reach that price point. If I cannot have Microsoft on it, if I cannot have Android, if I cannot have iOS, then I will look somewhere else, mostly likely in China.
The carrier is looking at a variety of operating systems to fit their low-cost needs including Mozillas Boot-to-Gecko, the Linux-based Tizen and Chinese Android variants.
Maitre also notes that bandwidth is becoming an increasingly limited commodity, saying that about one billion people active users consume less than one gigabyte of data per month.
Tomorrow, seven billion people will use bandwidth and all use (in the range of) five or six gigabits [0.625 or 0.75GB], he said. The bandwidth will start to become a very valuable resource.

Beijing Acrobat Show with Transfer
Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the Beijing Acrobat Show with Transfer. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.
Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
Excellent show! Very talented artists!
Very entertaining, such skill. Alfred our guide was exceptional. Great trip.
This was a great night, myself and a mate went and the show was worth going and seeing. It's at a local theatre and is a little venue but the show was awesome and well put together.
The acrobats were amazing! I think the shows are different every night, so we were expecting a couple of acts that we had seen in the video posted along with the tour info, but they weren't part of the show that we saw. It was still amazing, and a great end to a full day of tours!
It is just fantastic!!! All the family can enjoy it. It is breathtaking. Almost two hours of pure entertainment with a short break. The pick up at the hotel was on time, and for this tour, even if the guide spoke nothing in English, it would be fine. My guide was very friendly. I will definetely see it again if I have the chance.
This acrobat group is the best in Beijing, their performance was flawless. Transfer to and from the show went well.
This was fun for me and my 13 year old child. It's a bit like Cirque du Solei, Beijing style. It's a short show and entertaining.
We were picked up at our hotel delivered to the theatre on time and returned to the hotel after the show , the show was excellent and we were happy with the service thank you
Really worth seeing.
some sort of stress, because a non english spoken driver picked us up and got to the place. Then a girl came later with the tickets. the show is awesome
The hour long show was kind of cool. Too pricey for the worst seats in the house and the theater is a complete dump.
It was convenient to be driven to the show by the guide and driver. The show was very good in all the acrobatics parts. However the transition parts between the acrobatic performance were not really fitting.
Was ok
Was ok.

Difference Between Dyson DC41 and DC50
The Dyson DC50 is Dyson's newest compact upright vacuum and great if you want the power of a Dyson full size vacuum but have a small living space.
Cleaner Floors Equal Cleaner Air – The Sirena Vacuum
The Sirena Vacuum is a water vacuum, meaning it uses water to clean the floors. This is nothing new and one may wonder what separates the Sirena from any other water based carpet or floor cleaner. The first thing to say is that instead of just using water to clean the floor it also uses water as it's filter. Air is sucked in with the water such that dirt is trapped in the water and the air is recycled back into your home cleaner than before. And that's quite something, though it may not seem particularly major. For the air in most homes is nowhere near as clean as most people think or want.
So not only will you be cleaning your floors, you will be cleaning your air. When one is employing the Sirena Vacuum you are actually water washing your air! This makes it an ideal cleaning unit for houses with those whom are sensitive to dust and pollen, such as asthmatics or people with other sinus issues.

RIP, Paul Walker. The Ocean Has Lost a Friend.
Most people mourning the death of Paul Walker know him best in his roles as an actor: The Fast and the Furious series, Varsity Blues, She's All That and Pleasantville, among many.
We knew him better as an aspiring marine biologist and a lifelong friend of the ocean. And we miss him so much — because he was a true advocate for healthy oceans.
Growing up, Paul was inspired by Jacques Cousteau — his mentor and role model, as he is for many of our staff. He studied marine biology in college and planned to make that his career before he was drawn into acting.
But the ocean was never far from his life — or his concerns.
Mind-blowing ocean life
"The sea is just a big mystery," he said in a video interview with fabela iMag to to promote Fast and Furious Five. "There are things that are more alien in the ocean than I think are alien in space. It seems like every other day, there's a new discovery. You look at it and you're like, 'Really!' … Things that are so bizarre … it's mind blowing."
An avid surfer ("a zen experience for me") and scuba diver, he described himself in his Twitter profile as an "ocean addict". And as he told Entertainment Weekly in an interview, though he became an actor, his work was not his life.
The ocean was always his first love.
Marine biology: "My first passion"
"The passion for marine biology is still there," he said. "That was my first passion, so I still find other ways to fulfill that."
One way: Inspire others to get involved in protecting the ocean.
Paul came to the aquarium in 2005 to help us celebrate the opening of our Ocean's Edge galleries, and the connections each individual has to the health of ocean life. He talked that day with visitors about his personal commitment to ocean conservation, and urged them to step up their own involvement.
Paul was on the board of the Billfish Foundation, and took part in scientific tagging expeditions of great white sharks that were part of National Geographic's "Expedition Great White". When he described tagging great whites, it's not as an actor but as a marine scientist.
"I'd walk away from (acting) to do this full time," he said.
Humanitarian heart
He cared for people in need as well as the ocean. He founded Reach Our Worldwide to provide disaster assistance in places from Haiti to the Midwest to — most recently — the Philippines, in the wake of typhoon Haiyan. He died in a car crash just after making an appearance at a fundraising event for Haiyan relief work.
Above all, he cared about family and friends. As he told Flaunt magazine, "You know, all that really matters is that the people you love are happy and healthy. Everything else is just sprinkles on the sundae."
We will miss his spirit, his caring, and his love of the ocean.

Mae, First Otter to Raise a Pup on Exhibit, Dies
We're sad to report that Mae, an 11-year-old female sea otter who had been part of our sea otter exhibit since she was eight months old, died over the weekend from a seizure disorder whose cause is still unknown. Her seizures began suddenly just a few days before her death on Saturday afternoon, November 17.
Mae was rescued as a two-day-old pup near Santa Cruz in April 2001, and raised by our Sea Otter Research and Conservation (SORAC) program team. She joined the sea otter exhibit in December 2001 when it became clear that she was not acquiring the skills she needed to be returned to the wild. She was the first animal we'd added to the exhibit since 1986 – starting a new generation of exhibit animals as our original sea otters reached the end of their lives.
That wasn't Mae's only "first" with us. In 2010, she became the first surrogate mother otter to raise an orphaned pup on exhibit at the aquarium. Her pup, Kit, is now living at SeaWorld San Diego. Mae served as a companion animal to several otters as part of the SORAC program.
Her name – that of a truck-stop waitress with a screeching voice in John Steinbeck's Grapes of Wrath – was chosen in another first-ever process. It was selected for her by the public in an online poll.
Mae, nicknamed "Mayhem" by her caretakers, was a vocal and feisty sea otter who would make direct eye contact with and stick her tongue out at trainers when displeased, according to staff who worked with her. She was also an enthusiastic partner in training sessions, said Chris DeAngelo, associate curator of marine mammals.
"Mae definitely knew the most behaviors of any of our otters and was wonderful to teach new behaviors," Chris said. "She was one of the first animals that new trainers learned to work with because she was very consistent and good with dealing with 'trainer errors.' We'll all miss her terribly."
Chris and the sea otter staff also called Mae "the monkey" because she would hold objects like ice molds and toys with her tail, leaving her paws open to accept whatever came next. While none of the other adult otters displayed this behavior, it was picked up by some of the pups Mae raised.
Senior Sea Otter Aquarist Cecelia Azhderian appreciated Mae's playfulness.
"She loved big buckets," Cecelia said "She could hardly wait for them to be filled with water before she'd get inside, even though she didn't like the water hose, which she'd attack it if it came too close."
Our sea otter exhibit is currently closed for renovations and will reopen in mid-March. Exhibit otters Rosa and Abby and are being housed behind the scenes.
Learn more about our SORAC program and how we're helping save sea otters.

I have it configured on three non-profit sites and it works, but there is no image in the box when I turn on captcha, just a missing image symbol.
If I go to the captcha configuration page, it says "GREAT NEWS!!! - GD Support and FreeType Support are both Enabled on your server!! The Captcha option of the component should work just fine!", and captcha on the right works and reloads when I request it.
So, it works on the back-end, but not on the frontend.
Thanks for creating this extension.
Thanks for your review! We have identified an issue with the Captcha image not displaying/showing properly on the Front End of sites that are located on 'Sub-Domains'. We have found the problem, modified the code, and for for versions of the component at 3.0.0 or above, this should not be a issue.
Thanks Again!
This extension works great. I installed it and configured it with all of the categories I wanted to display. It works just as described in is just what I need.
You can see the site at http://urbanmadison.org/
I don't know why there are gaps in some of the columns displaying the articles.
Thank you for your review... those gaps are due to css, I haven't put a lot on effort on the module stylesheet, although you could try downloading the current version where I have emphasized the existing statements so they are not overwritten by your templates css. It will get rid of the gaps.
Best regards!

Frank's Ramblings: Influencers Trailer
So this is the inception of this series of posts where I'll infrequently offer two Abraham Lincoln's regarding something fun. The subject in question here is the Trailer for the upcoming film Influencers which is a look at our burgeoning culture, and how the microcosm of our esoteric interests is able to travel to the main-stream. This film is an expose about the transfer of ideas and creativity from few to many, and the mediums in which we achieve that namely, the Blogosphere. Like it or not, blogs, such as the one your reading right this moment have become a viable source of news, culture, and ideas and are a major source from which people draw ideas and inspiration. I'm not saying old Hype Floats is going to influence the next class of leaders, but the social transfer of media certainly will. Basically this film looks dope and features some extremely extroverted and intriguing personalities looking at the ways in which we perceive and transfer our personal tastes. One source that your boy writes for on an occasional basis is featured in the trailer, and I'll give you a hint, it's not GQ, A Continuous Lean, The Selby, The Sartorialist, nor Inventory, though those are all upstanding online publications.

In the early industrial age, buildings began to spring up all over the east coast. Many of these new buildings were taller than anything ever built before and most had elevators. As buildings got taller and taller, more people began to use elevators. Elevators in those days were pretty darn slow. People were constantly complaining about how slow the elevators were.
Elevator companies were challenged with this problem and came up with the typical problem statement elevators move too slow. So they went off to design elevators that were faster and safer, but at the time it was very expensive to do so. Several companies went off and running to build a safer and faster elevator, and one elevator company proposed a different problem statement. They may have had a different name for the approach, but they were using the fundamentals of the est problem statement tool. One engineer said, I think our elevator speeds are just fine, people are crazy.
Then an engineer proposed that they work on a different problem statement. He proposed that the problem was people think elevators move to slow. He inserted two words people think into the problem statement which allowed the design team to approach the problem from a completely different angle and thus a whole new set of ideas. Instead of concentrating on larger motors, slicker pulley designs and such, they concentrated on the passenger in the elevator.
When they looked at the problem from this angle, the ideas started to snowball. Is it really too slow? Why do they think it is slow? How can we distract them? How can we make it more comfortable? Are customers scared of heights?
This lead to some first hand customer research. They found that a lot of people thought the elevators were a lot slower then they actually were.
They also discovered that people had an exaggerated sense of time because they had nothing to do but stare at the wall and think about the safety of the elevator being suspended in the air, and preoccupied with the fear of falling.
There wasn't room for additional equipment of any sort, so they brainstormed on that. This lead to the idea of mirrors in elevators so people would think about something else besides danger. Was their hair combed properly? Did her makeup look okay?
By installing mirrors in the elevators, people became distracted and were no longer preoccupied with the fear of falling. On a follow up survey, customers commented how much faster the new elevators were even though the speed was exactly the same. The elevator design itself had not changed at all.
On women, the rise of the hookup culture, and its perceived pros and cons. Is this a new era of girl power, or does it actually make women even more vulnerable than ever before?
Great article, thanks @kdotzhang
INTP. That's new. Side-effect of too much yoga, codeacaedmy, and balance? No complaints there.
Surround yourself with good people, make a life that is congruent with your values, seize opportunities. Protect yourself, spend money on wellness not image, care a lot less, care a lot more, find people who will root for you and wonder in amazement at just how far you go when someone believes in you. Sign up for free classes on Eventbrite and Coursera. (Take Python and Networks/Bytes with me). Listen to Stitcher. Use Waze to drive to work. Produce quality work and be grateful to be appreciated. Volunteer for things you have no idea about, then learn it. Ride the bus. Use Routesy to get around SF. Invest in a wallet and stop losing receipts/clipper-cards. Wonder for a minute if fate exists, then be optimistic again and decide life is only about choice. Drink beer at work. Eat good food, and realize good company is better than the good food. Realize how corny this post is becoming. Stop tumbling, maybe write a letter to your future self, maybe not: www.futureme.org.

NFL: Thigh, knee pads mandatory
ATLANTA -- The NFL made thigh and knee pads mandatory equipment for the 2013 season, something the players' union was not pleased with.
Atlanta Falcons president Rich McKay, chairman of the competition committee, said Tuesday at an owners' meeting that because this is a playing rule, the league can apply it unilaterally.
"We have a vote of the membership and can implement," McKay said. "Some of us felt we were remiss that we took it out of the rule book -- high school and college makes it mandatory -- and in our mind that is how it should be and will be in 2013.
"We have some work to do with the union."
Some of us felt we were remiss that we took it out of the rule book -- high school and college makes it mandatory -- and in our mind that is how it should be and will be in 2013." -- Rich McKay, chairman of competition committee
McKay said the league will meet with NFL Players Association representatives on the issue, something they have discussed in the past.
But the NFLPA argued that the move should be negotiated.
"Any change in working conditions is a collectively bargained issue," the union said in a statement. "While the NFL is focused on one element of health and safety today, the NFLPA believes that health and safety requires a comprehensive approach and commitment. We are engaged in and monitor many different issues, such as players' access to medical records, prescription usage and the situation with professional football's first responders, NFL referees.
"We always look forward to meeting with the NFL to discuss any and all matters related to player health and safety."
Several players spoke out against the rule Tuesday.
"I hate that," Raiders linebacker Travis Goethel said. "I don't want that at all. I don't like having anything restricting my movement in my legs. If you get hit in the thigh, it really doesn't do too much to help you out."
Added Broncos cornerback Drayton Florence:
"My opinion is that I don't want to wear them, but you have to follow the rules and policies. I just think that's a way for them to kind of cover themselves with things that have been going on in the past" such as concussions suffered in collisions with knees or thighs.
San Diego Chargers cornerback Quentin Jammer said he wouldn't wear the pads, while teammate Jarrett Johnson called the move a "PR stunt."
"There'll probably be a lot of fines in 2013," Jammer told U-T San Diego. "A lot of guys won't wear them."
The pads rule would not go into effect on the field until next year so equipment manufacturers can work on safety and comfort.
Commissioner Roger Goodell couldn't see any negatives to adding the thigh and knee pads.
"We have raised the issue of mandatory pads for at least three years now," he said. "I believe the technology has improved, the pads are far better than a decade ago, they allow better performance and are more protective. Every other level of football uses the pads."
Former All-Pro safety Troy Vincent, now an NFL vice president, explained why there could be pushback from the players.
"It's psychological. Less pads you are faster, skinnier, that's just the way I was introduced to the (pro) game," he said. "It's a culture shift. They will adjust."
Goodell pointed out something a Nike executive told him recently: NBA players are wearing more pads from the hips down than NFL players.
"There is something wrong with that," Goodell said.
Should a player not have the pads on when he enters a game, he will be sent off the field by a game official.
More From ESPN.com
Wait, NFL players don't always wear thigh and knee pads? Uni Watch's Paul Lukas explains why they've fallen out of favor. Blog
"It's the same as if he ran on without a helmet," McKay said. "It is a safety rule."
Goodell said he expects evidence in the Saints bounties case would be made public after all the player appeals and grievances have been heard. Release of any documents also could be delayed by Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilma's defamation lawsuit against Goodell after the commissioner suspended Vilma for the entire 2012 season.
The owners also voted to move the trading deadline from after Week 6 to after Week 8, and to allow one "marquee" player placed on injured reserve to return to practice after the sixth week of the schedule and to the lineup after the eighth week. That player must have suffered his injury after the start of training camp and must be placed on IR following the final preseason roster cut to 53 players. His team must designate him as a player to return.
Terrell Suggs, the 2011 defensive player of the year who recently underwent surgery for a torn Achilles tendon, wouldn't fall into that category because his injury happened far before training camp. If the Ravens believe Suggs can make it back in midseason, as the linebacker has predicted, they will have to place him on the physically unable to perform list because they can't use the IR special designation for him.
New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft likes the adjustment because he knows firsthand how devastating an injury to a star player can be.
"It's good because I think it keeps the excitement in the game," Kraft said. "I know when we lost Tom Brady there was a feeling he could have come back at the end of the year. It would have been great for the fans, and I think every team has someone in that category."
Goodell said the league is closer to a decision on what to do with the Pro Bowl, which he called "not a competitive game" last January. He wants more discussions with the players about how to improve the quality of the game, but dropping it entirely still is possible.
"The issue is we recognize it is an all-star game, but we also believe fans expect more from an NFL game," he said. "If we believe we can achieve that, we want to give them every opportunity to do that."
Only New Orleans, site of next year's Super Bowl, and Honolulu are being considered if the Pro Bowl is held.
The league approved the Buffalo Bills playing one regular-season game every year from 2013 to 2017 in Toronto, extending that international series. Expansion of the international series in London could come as early as next year, Goodell added.

Category: 2014 Offseason
Dolphins hire former Jets GM Mike Tannenbaum as team consultant
- 3:33 pm Friday, August 8th, 2014 by Andrew Abramson
ATLANTA — Former Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum's name came up during the Dolphins GM search. He never got an interview, but he's getting a gig with Miami after all.
The Dolphins announced Friday that Tannenbaum will be work as a part-time team consultant focusing on innovation, analytics and sports science.
Ryan Herman has been promoted to the director of football administration. He was previously the team's manager of football administration. His responsibilities will include draft choice negotiations, assistant with the team's salary cap planning and management and assistant in veteran player contract negotiations.
His new role is similar to [More]
Miami Dolphins practice report: RB Knowshon Moreno returns from injury
- 7:51 am Wednesday, August 6th, 2014 by Andrew Abramson
Running back Knowshon Moreno was removed from the physically unable to perform list and dressed for Wednesday's practice.
Moreno had an offseason knee scope and has not participated in training camp. He had a career season in Denver's record setting offense last year with over 1,500 yards from scrimmage and 10 rushing touchdowns.
Moreno spent most of the practice on the sideline, holding his helmet. He said his timetable to return to full-scale action is up in the air.
"I don't know yet," Moreno said (watch video). "It's up to the coaches, but at the same time I'm going to make sure [More]
Miami Dolphins practice report: Mike Wallace returns; Olivier Vernon out; Tannehill throws INTs
- 8:26 am Tuesday, August 5th, 2014 by Andrew Abramson
Just when the Dolphins offensive line is stabilizing, quarterback Ryan Tannehill became unhinged.
Tannehill threw three interceptions in practice today after throwing three yesterday. Cornerback Cortland Finnegan had two of the three INTs and Finnegan had a third interception off a Matt Moore pass.
Tannehill said after practice that the team added some new plays today and that they'd become "second nature in a couple of weeks" and that the mistakes "won't happen again."
"I had a couple plays today I reacted just a half second late and as soon as it's over I knew" he said. "You [More]
Palm Beach Post's Miami Dolphins 53-man roster projection 3.0
- 6:00 am Tuesday, August 5th, 2014 by Andrew Abramson
It's more than a week and a half in to Dolphins training camp and we're starting to get a feel for how this team will look come early September.
A lot could still change with four preseason games (including Friday's opener in Atlanta), but here's how we seek it shaking out at the moment:
Ryan Tannehill, Matt Moore
Comment: Coach Joe Philbin strongly considered going with just two quarterbacks last year before deciding to keep third-stringer Pat Devlin on the roster. Philbin has long been a fan of Devlin, but also has just 53 spots to work with and a [More]
Miami Dolphins' Charles Clay, Caleb Sturgis, Pat Devlin out multiple practices
- 8:11 am Monday, August 4th, 2014 by Andrew Abramson
After suffering an injury in Saturday's practice, Dolphins tight end Charles Clay said he was glad it wasn't anything serious.
But Clay was banged up enough to keep him out of multiple practices, and potentially Friday's preseason opener against Atlanta.
The Dolphins announced Monday morning that Clay (knee), kicker Caleb Sturgis (groin) and third-quarterback quarterback Pat Devlin (hamstring) will all miss multiple practices.
Second-string quarterback Matt Moore (shoulder) missed Saturday's scrimmage. With injuries piling up at QB, the Dolphins re-signed quarterback Brock Jensen Sunday night. However, Moore could be ready to go for the preseason opener. He is participating in [More]
Miami Dolphins bring back Samson Satele to help with struggles at center
- 7:50 pm Saturday, August 2nd, 2014 by Andrew Abramson
When Mike Pouncey underwent hip surgery this summer, the Dolphins worked out Samson Satele but didn't make him an offer.
But with blown snaps becoming a regularity at practice, and with Pouncey out indefinitely, Miami has signed Satele.
Satele was with Miami in 2007-08, his first two seasons in the league.
He played with the Colts last year and was one of the NFL's worst centers, ranking 32nd in the league by Pro Football Focus.
Shelley Smith, who signed with the Dolphins in the offseason to play guard, opened up training camp as center. But he had never started [More]
Miami Dolphins scrimmage stats; Charles Clay injury update
- 12:57 pm Saturday, August 2nd, 2014 by Andrew Abramson
While the Dolphins offense showed some promise in today's scrimmage (and most importantly limited mistakes), an injury to tight end Charles Clay dampened the mood.
But after the scrimmage Clay downplayed the injury which appeared to be to his right leg. He wouldn't elaborate on specifics of the injury but said it was nothing to worry about.
"I'm just glad it's nothing too serious," Clay said. "I'm going to go back and get ready to play."
Here are the stats from today's scrimmage, as compiled by the Finsiders:
Ryan Tannehill: 15/27, 139 yards , 2 TDs, a two point conversion, 0 INTs
Pat [More]
Live updates from Dolphins scrimmage
- 9:15 am Saturday, August 2nd, 2014 by Andrew Abramson
10:41 a.m. — The second team offense has only been on the field once since the opening drive. They drove down the field and couldn't score, but the most interesting development was the offensive which did not include Shelley Smith.
From L-R the first team o-line was: Branden Albert, Daryn Colledge, Nate Garner, Billy Turner and Shelley Smith.
On the next drive, with the first-team defense going up against the second-team offense, Cortland Finnegan made a textbook endzone interception off a deep Pat Devlin pass. Finnegan read the play perfectly. Don't sleep on Finnegan, who's trying to prove he's still [More]

Video: Watch Dolphins QB Ryan Tannehill's touchdown passes (and a few miscues) from 2013
- 6:00 am Friday, August 1st, 2014 by Andrew Abramson
Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill is entering his crucial third season in the NFL. He doubled his touchdown passes from 12 in 2012 to 24 in 2013, but there are still questions about his deep ball accuracy and pocket presence.
Here's a video look at what went right with Tannehill.
And here's a video of his overthrows and underthrows to receiver Mike Wallace.
Tannehill and Wallace's chemistry will be a huge factor in Miami's success season. They've looked slightly more comfortable together this training camp but it's still a work in progress. Wallace is currently out with a hamstring issue so [More]

Skywatchers across Canada will get a chance to see the International Space Station conduct flybys this week.
For the next couple weeks between the hours of 9 pm and local midnight, skywatchers can head to their back yards to see the International Space Station. Look for a bright white star to traverse your sky in a matter of 2-4 minutes. It will look like a very bright, shiny, white-coloured star with no blinking lights -- so you know it's not a plane.
The Space Station is brighter than Venus, which is the brightest stellar object in our evening spring sky. The International Space Station is located 400 km above our heads and travels at around 19,000 miles per hour and takes around 90 minutes to make a trip around Earth so some skywatchers might get a chance to see it two or three times in one night, as long as you've got a clear sky.
There are six astronauts on board at a time, and the station has been permanently manned for 11 years. It's the size of a football field, and it's very reflective -- which makes it very bright in the night sky.
For more information and to find out when your area could see the International Space Station in your area, head to www.thenightskyguy.com

"I am (jealous). Because I know he's somewhere about to watch the game tonight, probably got a couple of cocktails."
"If love causes jealous, and jealous is the bad feeling to a human being, then love is the worst one."
"The level of stunning surprise reaches to the highest peak quite often on finding two equal-level jealous and selfish gelling with each other much better than the comfort desired to be seen between two equally good-natured persons."
"Always keep a big distance with minds of those who can hide their jealousy behind smile while thanking or appreciating others with showers of pompous words."
"No matter what field you are successful in, you won't be popular. People get jealous of your success. It is just like in the German Soccer League with Bayern Munich. No one wants them to become the German champion again and everyone is against them. You don't hate them, but you don't want them to win."
"As a plaintiff's lawyer, I had always been jealous of the money that defense attorneys got from insurers to pay for mock juries. Those things are extremely expensive . . . about $30,000 to $50,000 in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. If you've got a case worth $50,000 you can't afford to use it."

Watermelon Basket
- Yield 10 servings
This basket carved from a watermelon is full of fruit and makes a beautiful centerpiece, but beware it's for adults only.
- 1 medium watermelon
- 2 cups canteloupe balls
- 2 cups honeydew balls
- 2 cups fresh hulled strawberries
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 cup seedless grapes
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup water
- 1 cup dry vermouth
- 1/4 cup cognac
- 2 bananas, divided
- Grape leaves
- Make a basket of the watermelon by cutting a 2-inch-wide band across the center of the width of the watermelon, stopping about 1/3 of the way down from the top. (This makes the handle of the basket.) Cut the sides of the melon, about 1/3 of the way down from the top, into scallops. Remove the top sections and hollow out the watermelon in large pieces.
- With a melon ball cutter, scoop out balls from the large pieces of watermelon. Place the watermelon balls in a large mixing bowl and add the canteloupe, honeydew, strawberries, blueberries, and grapes.
- In a medium-sized saucepan dissolve the sugar in the water over low heat. Increase the heat to moderately high and boil the syrup for 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and let the syrup cool. When cool, add the vermouth and the cognac. Pour the syrup over the fruits and toss the mixture lightly. Place the fruits into the watermelon basket and cover the basket with foil. Chill 2 to 4 hours. Add bananas just before serving. Place the basket on a platter surrounded by grape leaves.
