ULSTER COUNTY, N.Y. -- Thanksgiving Eve is one of the biggest bar nights of the year and law enforcement is reminding people to play it safe.
Ulster County Sheriff's deputies say many people are home from college and it's become somewhat of a tradition to re-unite at the bars. Deputies want to remind drivers who are going to be out to have a game plan. They say there are plenty of options if you have had one too many.
"You want to make sure you have a designated driver or arrange for a taxi driver. Stay where you are going, if you can, or you can walk. You know grab one person if you can to drive everyone around. We want everyone to have a good time but we will be out there looking," said Ulster County Sheriff Paul VanBlarcum.
And a fair warning: The sheriff says there will be increased patrols out Wednesday night looking for impaired drivers.

|Ahimsa Yoga
|Yoga Style: Vinyasa flow
911 Central Ave.
Alameda, California 94607
|Contact:Cristin Shea
Ahimsa Vinyasa Yoga currently being taught at Island Yoga in Alameda.
Cristin developed 'ahimsa yoga' because she believes so deeply in the fusion of yoga and compassion which she incorporates at every level of her practice and teachings. She wants to be part of global change by helping others develop their coping skills so that we, as a community, operate from a place of compassion, kindness, and peace. The capacity to engage with, and embrace, the world with love starts from within. Cristin hopes to help develop that capacity in each person whose mat she is blessed to come in contact with.
All-Levels Ahimsa Vinyasa Yoga is a vinyasa flow yoga steeped in compassion and kindness while encouraging individuals to safely challenge themselves within their comfort zone. Classes are set to music and a warm environment while modifications are taught for each asana. Beginners through advanced yogis all benefit while practicing side by side, inspiring and sharing the energy and wisdom of each other.

Employing somatic principles during the exploration of yoga asana, Somatic Yoga cultivates a deeper sense of body awareness, allowing us greater ease in movement, and comfort in being in our bodies. Sharpen your reflexes, get in touch with your inner infant, introduce your head and tail, and awaken your senses as we look at traditional yoga poses. Through meditation, imagery, breath and an open sense of curiosity, we will excavate our bodies from the inside out; relying on developmental patterns inherent in our own body/mind make-up to guide us to a greater understanding of our relationship to yoga. This class is both a launching point for novice students and a deeper exploration for advanced students.

Our t-shirts are long lasting, individual and extremely useful for abiding by public decency laws.
We advise you cold wash your garments and hang them out to dry. It'll keep them super soft, looking their best and it's even good for the environment.
Slim fit, order a size up if you'd like it less fitting. If you like your hoodies baggy, go two sizes up.

Hi Fern,
I think it all depends. A couple of points to consider:
The key moments in Gautama's life were outside, in the open, under a tree. His birth, enlightenment, death and the vast majority of his teachings. I have no problems with commemorating this aspect of the Buddha's life. Personally, I see no problem with landscape gardening an outdoor shrine as part of a garden. But so long as the shrine has a religious/spiritual or meditative purpose and is not commissioned for the purpose of an exotic decoration. If I were to design an outdoor shrine, I would use the floor-plan of a shrine room in a temple as a guide. Most Asian Buddhist shrines are indoors where the Buddha-rupa is elevated off the floor on a platform. As a mark of respect to the Buddha, Dhamma and Sangha.
What I don't like is the reduction of the Buddha as garden gnome. And I think that's an attitude that is shared among many Buddhists in the East or West.

An upcycled menorah for a dorm room, made of an old yardstick and plastic Easter eggs. My cost was zero, because I happened to have eggs left over from the seder plate lesson plan wherein I tried to convince 3rd graders that the brightly-colored, hinged and apparently hilarious objects were, in fact, "beitzim" and not Easter Eggs. The eggs ended up as projectiles, as talking eggs (what with the handy hinge) and as unintended take-home favors. Continue reading

Wales for Africa - I should be so Lusaka
I've just come back from talking to people who are in the process of applying to go to Africa with ILO next year - Cohort 2, as they're called (I'm part of Cohort 1). It was really enjoyable, there was such a positive buzz of anticipation I felt quite uplifted afterwards. It was also a useful process, as I had to reflect on the whole application and preparation process and all it entails - which is a lot, as it happens. From sending off my application form to sending off for my visa, it's already been a journey, before I even get on the plane.
I've had to think about things like the NGO culture and the housing support sector in Zambia, cram up on branding issues for not-for-profits - so often seen as a low priority - set personal objectives, make contacts ... will I even remember to pack?
Luckily for me John was there, who's only just returned from Zambia, bless him. He talked about the practical things that I guess will make such a difference when I'm there, like getting around, Zambian tv (he says to take a radio), that shops in Lusaka ignore sell by dates, the fact that it's dark at 6pm and, apparently, going to start raining on 24 October.
I was already feeling pretty lucky - about my assignment, the location, the accommodation - and now I get to benefit from John's experience too. We're meeting up soon for lunch, so that he can pass on his wisdom; and some left-over mosquito repellent, some currency, and a sim card.
Lucky, lucky me.

Face to face with the past - the redisplay of a Roman coffin
[image: Coffin]
One of the most popular displays at the National Roman Legion Museum is a stone coffin that contains the skeleton of a Roman man. The coffin also contains the remains of grave goods that he would need for their next life, including the base of a shale bowl and fragments of a glass perfume or ointment bottle.
The coffin was found in 1995 on the site of a Roman cemetery just outside Caerleon. The cemetery is now part of the Caerleon Campus in the University of Wales, Newport. It has been on display in the National Roman Legion Museum from 2002, however in Summer 2010 we started working to redisplay the coffin in a fashion that is closer to its original form thanks to funding from the Friends of Amgueddfa Cymru – National Museum Wales.
Made from a solid block of Bath stone, the coffin dates to about 200AD. Since it is around 1800 years old the coffin wouldn't be able to support the weight of its original lid which is in 2 large pieces. The sides and base of the coffin are being reinforced and the lid will sit on top of a Perspex cover with enough of a gap so that you can see the skeleton inside.
Further work will be done to find out more about our Roman man, who was about 40 when he died. Thanks to funding from the Roman Research Trust, Isotope analysis will be carried out on his teeth which should tell us where grew up and what sort of food he ate. We will also be trying to reconstruct his face so that we can produce a painted portrait of him using the same materials and techniques used by the Romans.
Follow our progress as work proceeds over the next year.
We aim to complete the redisplay by the end of 2011 when you will be able to come face to face with the past!
Step 1
[image: Coffin]
The coffin, skeleton and grave goods have been on display since 2002.
In that time it has become one of the most popular exhibits in the gallery.
Step 2
[image: Discarded items]
Gaps in the coffin allowed visitors to push things into the display.
These are some of the things we found, not exactly the sort of thing our Roman would like to take to the next life.
Step 3
[image: Work begins]
Work begins. First the skeleton and grave goods have to be removed and stored safely.
While off display the skeleton will undergo further investigation in an attempt to find more about the man buried in the coffin.
Step 4
[image: Painting]
All modern materials added to an object must be reversible. This makes it easier to remove restoration without causing damage to the original artefact.
Here a reversible barrier is being painted onto the coffin. This will separate the original stonework from the material used to fill gaps and level the rim.
Step 5
[image: Painting]
Even the most awkward places have to be reached!
Step 6
[image: Lid of the coffin]
The lid of the coffin must have a level surface to sit on!
Unfortunately much of the original rim of the base has eroded so with the aid of foam, double-sided tape and the glass top of the original display as a guide, we hope to establish a new level for the coffin rim.
Step 7
[image: Layers of foam]
Layers of foam were stuck to the flat glass top. When the highest part of the coffin was reached this line was used as the level for the new rim.
Step 8
[image: Mixing up the fill material]
Now for the fun bit� mixing up the fill material.
This material must work like a putty and set hard when dry. Also be safe to use in the open gallery and similar in colour and texture to the original Bath stone.
We went for a mixture of air-drying clay, sand to reduce shrinkage and give texture. Acrylic paint for colour and extra bonding. This was a bit of a messy job and it took a while to get the mix right!
Step 9
[image: Filling the gaps]
Once the mix was ready the gap between the foam and the edge of the coffin was filled.
Step 10
[image: Filling the gaps]
Being careful not to get excess fill material all over the stone.
Step 11
[image: Filling done]
Looks good, let�s hope the fill dries without to much shrinkage.
The colour of the fill is a bit light, not as golden as the original Bath stone. The Roman quarry for the stone is believed to be south of the ancient City of Bath. The stone is soft and easily carved when wet, but becomes hard on drying.
Step 12
[image: Inspecting the day's work]
Inspecting the days work! Hopefully when the glass and foam is removed the fill will be nice and level.
Step 13
[image: Side of the coffin]
The gaps in the side of the coffin have to be filled to prevent access to the skeleton once it is put back on display.
Step 14
[image: Glass top and foam removed]
The glass top and foam are removed and the new rim revealed. The fill has dried much lighter than expected so will have to be painted to make it less obvious.
Most of the fill will be hidden by the lid which extends over the edge and down the side. This overlapping edge use to rest on a ridge that ran round the top of the coffin base.
Remains of this ridge can still be seen on the right hand-side of the image just below the fill.
Step 15
[image: Coffin]
The coffin was unearthed by a mechanical digger, which broke it into several sections. Most of the pieces were retrieved, but one area was so badly damaged no pieces survived.
Instead of filling the gap to complete the side, we decided to install a viewing window so small visitors to the museum can still get a good view of the skeleton inside.
Step 16
[image: Gallery]
The coffin is extremely heavy and could not be moved out of the gallery safely. Therefore, all conservation work has to take place in the gallery, which has been quite challenging at times.
If you are visiting and see us there, come over and say hello, we are happy to answer any questions about the project.

counting pots
Amgueddfa Cymru - National Museum Wales has been making preparations to send spring bulbs and pots to 2,621 primary school scientists across Wales, as part of an on-going study into the effects of climate change.
More than 3,000 bulbs were kindly donated by the Really Welsh company and then packed by a super efficient team of volunteers. The bulbs, pots and equipment will enable the schools to record the weather and flowering dates in 70 locations across Wales.
Each school will complete tasks and keep records through the winter and spring term to earn super scientist certificates that are awarded to pupils by the project leader - Professor Plant.
The volunteers thoroughly enjoyed the experience and were happy to help with the logistics of this very worthwhile project, which enables the Museum to share its scientific knowledge with schools all over Wales - no matter how remote.
The most dedicated school will win a trip to a daffodil picking day with the farmers of Really Welsh who grow all their produce within Wales.
This week, van driver, Paul Evans will be delivering the investigation packs across the winding roads of Wales to ensure the schools have their bulbs in time for the big planting day which will take place on the 20th of October. Paul has worked for the Museum loan service for 20 years.

Wales for Africa
I've just found out the dates I'll be working in Zambia - I'm off on 2 October, and all of a sudden it feels very, very real!
I've got more jabs I need, I've got to sort my visa out, not to mention all the jobs I've been muttering to myself that 'I must do before I go...'. There are some things I really must do, like taking the cat to the vet and the car for its MOT (musn't get them mixed up). But I think painting the kitchen's off the list.
I've also got to publish our financial report, a 56-page discussion document and two books. All in two editions, Welsh and English. And carry on production of the 176-page book on our archaeology collections, and development of the brand new companion guide to the art collections. And recruit a new translator. And a few other things...
Wales for Africa
Came in this morning to a very interesting email from John, who's already in Zambia working with one of the Forum's member charities. The email said that someone in Lusaka had asked after me. Now, initially I had the usual moment of 'oh, wonder who that is' that most people from Wales - even more so from Bethesda - get all the time. Then of course remembered that the message is from Lusaka and to my knowledge there isn't anyone even from Bethesda there at the moment (though I could be wrong). Reading on, it was just that the Forum already have my name, and so John was very kindly passing on the message that I'm expected and they're looking forward to meeting me. How amazing, to make someone feel welcome and we're not even on the same continent yet!
I'm still waiting for the specific date when I start work there. Frustrating. Although, it is becoming more and more tangible, partly perhaps because I went for my first jabs this week. Typhoid in my left arm, as that's the one that will hurt most they breezily informed me while wielding the needle, and combined Hep A&B in the other. Not too painful at all at the time, it seemed to me. To be honest I was more concerned with how I looked as I left the surgery with the fluffy ball of cotton wool taped to each arm (ridiculous, is how I looked). However, woke next morning with shoulders and upper arms stiff as a board. Followed by very mild sniffles, probably because of the typhoid jab.
I've also been filling in a questionnaire in preparation for a coaching session next week. The support for the personal development aspect of the ILO scheme is really thorough. The questions included some highly sensible ones about objectives and commitments, as well as a couple I didn't entirely understand if I'm honest. But I know I'll get help and support, which is what matters really I suppose.

ortheast Mississippi Community College head softball coach Jody Long has scheduled the program's first-ever fast-pitch alumni weekend.
Alumni of the Northeast fast-pitch softball program will descend upon the Booneville campus during homecoming weekend with the weekend culminating in a game featuring current and former stars of the Lady Tiger softball team.
Northeast's feature game will be held on Sunday, October 17 at 1:30 p.m. at Booneville City Park.
The Lady Tiger softball alumni game will culminate a weekend full of homecoming activities such as the Northeast Development Foundation's "Friend of the Tiger" golf tournament on Friday, October 15, the induction of the third class of the Northeast Sports Hall of Fame at 11 a.m. on Saturday, October 16 and Northeast's homecoming game against Coahoma Community College at 2 p.m. on Saturday, October 16.
"We did it for three reasons," Long said. "First, it is the 10-year anniversary of the program. Second, our fall games were removed so all we can play now is against our own players – intrasquad – or against our alumni. Finally, Coach (David) Carnell is being inducted into the Sports Hall of Fame and my hope is that some of the former players will come in early to attend Coach Carnell's induction."
Long and Carnell have been the only Northeast coaches to guide the fast-pitch program and Long said this is a way to give back to the players that helped build the program.
Carnell helped guide the Lady Tigers to a 28-12 record during their first year of fast-pitch competition in 2000-01 and captured a share of the North Division championship while finishing third in the state/ region tournament.
Northeast softball continued to dominate the North Division and became a player on the national scene when the Lady Tigers won the Region XXIII Tournament and advanced to the National Junior College Athletic Association's (NJCAA) National Softball Championships in 2003.
Northeast came close to a return trip to the national tournament in 2004 and 2005 finishing as the Region XXIII runner-up.
Northeast's softball team not only excelled on the diamond but in the classroom as well and was awarded as the NJCAA's Academic Team of the year in 2000-01 — Northeast's first year of fast-pitch competition — and was among the top academic teams in the country in 2002, 2003 and 2004.
As a way of giving back to those that helped build the program, Long has invited all former players back for the game and has also offered a free cookout to the alumni and current players following the alumni versus current players game.
Deadline to enter the Northeast softball alumni weekend is October 8. For more information about the weekend or to register, former players can contact Long at 662-720-7305 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

My Bio
Art is aspect of life
Born in February of the late 70s, I seem to have taken passion in cooler weather as my inspirations for photography in my life as a romanian artist; so much of my work shows depictions of fall and winter and my mechanics entail several hues of blues and whites. Most people when considering dreams would think of good positive dreams, and I like to think I captured that in my work. I also seem to visit the darker side of what people may see of dreams, not necessarily what one would see as negative, but possibly a dream that one could not quite understand or may feel alone.
The definition of art can be quite broad, however one aspect of art that is widely explored is art through dreams. One's perception of a dream is vast, which in comparison to the views of art, it helps to encompass what artists want from their viewers. That is the perception of many different opinions from their work. Art becomes most popular by both their similarities in view and also their differences.
After all that is what art truly can be defined as, using such work in your own life because art is not useful without personal admiration and profess.

Feb 25 - The stance of U.S. monetary policy is viewed as considerably easier in 2013 than in 2012 by Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis President James Bullard. During a presentation Feb. 21, 2013, on Perspectives on the Current Stance of Monetary Policy at the Center for Global Economy and Business at New York Universitys Stern School of Business, Bullard noted that on the Feds nominal interest rate policy, the rate has been near zero since December 2008 and that the Federal Open Market Committee has promised to maintain the near zero rate into the future, so-called forward guidance. In December 2012, the FOMC replaced the fixed-date forward guidance with a threshold approach. The threshold approach has disposed of the pessimistic signal that was a side effect of the date-based forward guidance. This should make the forward guidance more effective, he said.
Regarding the Feds balance sheet policy, outright asset purchases have replaced the Operation Twist program, which Bullard noted may not have been as effective as hoped. Open-ended outright purchases are a more potent tool, he said. Furthermore, he noted that the FOMC has promised to maintain an aggressive asset purchase program, and he discussed some considerations for the future of this program. The level of nominal short-term interest rates is conventionally taken to indicate the stance of policy, Bullard said, noting that lower values are described as easier policy.
However, when the policy rate is near zero, as it has been in the United States since December 2008, he said that a shadow short-term rate can be understood as a metric for the stance of monetary policy.
Leo Krippner of the Reserve Bank of New Zealand calculates such a shadow rate, which averaged -4.57 percent from August 2010 to January 2013. Bullard said this is considerably more negative than values recommended by common monetary policy rules. One such rule is often called the Taylor (1999) rule, which relates the current value of the policy rate to inflation and the output gap. Bullard noted that Fed officials have sometimes used this rule to describe monetary policy.
The shadow policy rate is currently about 250 basis points lower than the rate recommended by the Taylor (1999) rule, Bullard said. This suggests that actual U.S. monetary policy may currently be easier than the recommendations from that particular rule. The bottom line is that the current policy stance looks very easy according to this analysis, he said.
Before December, the FOMC stated that the policy rate would likely remain near zero until mid-2015. This created a pessimism problem for the committee, Bullard said. He explained that the date could be interpreted as a statement that the U.S. economy is likely to perform poorly until that time, which he has called an unwarranted pessimistic signal.
However, he said, The committee did not intend to send such a signal. Rather than using a given date, Bullard noted that the FOMC has now changed its forward guidance to a description of economic
conditions at the time of the first rate increase.
Such a dependency on economic conditions is known as state-contingent policy. In December the committee instead adopted thresholds, values for inflation (2.5 percent) and unemployment (6.5 percent) that give an indication that the time for a policy rate increase may have arrived, he explained.
Now, as data arrive on U.S. economic performance, private sector expectations concerning the timing of the first rate increase can automatically adjust, Bullard said. The committee is no longer sending the pessimistic signal, because the threshold conditions can be met at any time.
He stated that the current St. Louis Fed forecast for the unemployment rate implies that the 6.5 percent threshold will be crossed in June 2014. However, he noted, the policy rate implied jointly by the Taylor (1999) rule and the St. Louis Fed forecasts should increase in August 2013. Thus, The committees thresholds imply a Woodford period since the policy rate would be held at zero past the point where ordinary FOMC behavior would indicate an increase, Bullard said.
The period from August 2013 to June 2014 would be the Woodford period, which refers to Michael Woodford of Columbia University. According to received theory, this is a more stimulative monetary policy and possibly even an optimal monetary policywhen the zero lower bound is constraining, Bullard added.
Bullard stated that while the thresholds fixed the pessimism problem, they still have some challenging aspects. The use of thresholds is not a panacea, Bullard cautioned. He discussed several issues that the FOMC is likely to face going forward with this strategy.
For instance, he said, The FOMC cannot pretend to target medium- or long-term unemployment. In addition, The committee needs to reiterate that it considers many more variables in attempting to gauge the state of the U.S. economy. Finally, he said that the thresholds will likely be viewed as triggers for action.
Turning to the Feds latest QE program, Bullard discussed four considerations going forward. First, while substantial labor market improvement is a condition for ending the program, Bullard said that the committee could consider many different aspects of labor market performance when evaluating whether there has been substantial improvement.
These include unemployment, employment, hours worked and Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey data. The committee will have to make a judgment about the degree of labor market improvement, he said. Second, Without an end date, the committee may have to alter the pace of purchases
as news arrives concerning U.S. macroeconomic performance, Bullard said, noting that substantial labor market improvement does not arrive suddenly. This suggests that as labor markets improve somewhat, the pace of asset purchases could be reduced somewhat, but not ended altogether, he explained. This type of policy would send important signals to the private sector concerning the committees judgment on the amount of progress made to that point.
A third consideration for the QE program is inflation and inflation expectations, Bullard said. Current readings on inflation are rather low, which he said may give the FOMC some leeway to continue asset purchases for longer than otherwise. Although worries about rising inflation have so far been unfounded, the lesson from QE2 is that inflation and inflation expectations did trend higher, he said, adding that it is too early to know if that will happen with the current QE program.
Finally, he said, The size of the balance sheet could inhibit the committees ability to exit appropriately from the current very aggressive monetary policy. He explained that when interest rates rise, asset values will fall, which could possibly complicate monetary policy decisions.
Taking into consideration all of the recent changes to monetary policy, the stance of U.S. monetary policy is considerably easier today than it was during 2012, Bullard said. 2012 policy was characterized by a relatively weak Operation Twist program combined with somewhat counterproductive date-based forward guidance, he said. In contrast, 2013 is characterized by a relatively potent open-ended outright asset purchase program combined with more effective threshold-based forward guidance.
