Cycling: A Guide To Menstruation
by Laura Szumowski
Laura Szumowski has a great doubleheader of illustrated guides out right now. Cycling: A Guide to Menstruation is a beautifully illustrated 64-page resource on all-things menstrual. Equals parts fun and informative, Cycling answers just about any question you might have about your monthly visitor (as well as all the inner biology action, re: how your stuff works and what to do if it's not working.) Szumowski's second offering is Tip of the Iceberg, an illustrated guide to the clitoris. From sex to science, illness to ejaculation, Szumowski covers all the bases and does so with humor, a love for myth-bustng, and substantial factual backing. Both are essential titles.

Ah, the good ol' days… When men were men, women knew their place and kids could be mentally traumatized for art. I keed! I'm working on different kind of trailers right now. One project asked and I was all "OK, I have full control? Let's do it!" and it turned out they were really all "Um, well XYZ but I don't know let me put you in touch with the right people" so I was all "Have those people contact me directly". THEN a solid little indie company came by and offered a bit of wet stinky cash for my help recording footage. This is our holdup on the latest L.G.C. Hey, I can't pay in tigers blood TM.
I do have the forums in place but it will not go live until I hammer out a few issues. Then with some luck we can have a go at Linux games.

3+1 Accelerated Degree Program
You care deeply about people and populations. And you want to use your vision, compassion, and intelligence to improve their lives. The 3+1 Public Policy Program will uniquely position you to make a difference - at local, national, and global levels.
Combining a Bachelor of Arts in Economics with a Master of Arts in Public Policy, this highly interdisciplinary program is built on the belief that the political process can bring about social change.
Coursework in the first three years draws on Simmons's vigorous liberal arts curriculum to provide an excellent foundation in the social sciences: political science, economics, and sociology. Master's level coursework in public policy begins by the end of the third year and culminates in an intense and practical Capstone Project in Public Policy.
Using Boston's vibrant legislative, nonprofit, and advocacy resources as its classroom, the Capstone will blend the outstanding internships that distinguish Simmons with the opportunity to address real policy issues in a substantial written work.
You'll graduate with a command of public policy analysis and a deep understanding of the different contexts in which public policy is developed and implemented. You'll head out prepared to affect public good.
"The 3+1 Program is interdisciplinary, rigorous, and exciting. It's for students who want to understand the intersection between the private world of problems and the public world of politics - and to come up with solutions. The world needs more women in politics and policy, and Simmons is the place to make it happen."
- Associate Professor of Political Science and Associate Dean, Leanne Doherty, Ph.D., Coordinator of the 3+1 Public Policy Program at the Simmons College of Arts and Sciences
The 3+1 Public Policy Program is designed for highly motivated students who are interested in running for public office, working in legislative offices on legislative policy, becoming involved in advocacy or nonprofit work, or pursuing a Ph.D. or law degree. You should enjoy analyzing complex problems and have strong interest in political science, economics, or sociology.
The career outlook for graduates with advanced degrees in public policy is bright. According to the 2010-11 Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Handbook, employment growth within the federal government is projected to grow much faster than average. The MPP degree qualifies you to work in many different capacities within government, as well as the nonprofit and private sectors.
There are many rewarding routes you can take with this degree combination. Some possibilities include:
You will complete the 128 credits required for a B.A., including the courses required for your elected major, in your first three years. The Master in Public Policy degree requires 36 credits (12 courses).
Note: this chart represents a sample 3+1 curriculum. Course scheduling is subject to change, and the summer course load can be flexible. We will work with you individually to determine the best course sequence for your needs.

Associate Professor Masato Aoki, Ph.D., Chair of the Economics department, will oversee the 3+1 Economics/Public Policy Program.
Close mentorship is vital to 3+1 success. You'll work one on one with your advisor throughout the program to ensure your progress and to meet your personal and professional goals.
To find out more about the program, contact Professor Aoki at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Ideally, you will submit an application for the master's part of your program at the end of your freshman year or during your sophomore year. For the SSW program, you'll apply at the start of your third year.
No. You can choose another major or complete just one degree if you find 3+1 isn't a match for you. However, depending on your new major, you may need to decide by the first semester of your sophomore year in order to meet the academic requirements.
Yes, but you will need to do so at the start of your sophomore year. Your ability to complete the program by your senior year will also depend on what courses you took your freshman year and/or your Advanced Placement credits. Contact the 3+1 advisor for your program to learn more.
That's the plan. The curriculum for each program is set up with a careful sequencing of courses. Although there is some flexibility built in, it's highly recommended that you follow the program as it's laid out. If you feel this may be a problem, talk to your 3+1 advisor.
Because the 3+1 Program doesn't "skip" requirements and can demand a workload of five courses per semester, the time commitment is significant. However, your schedule should be flexible enough to allow you to work and join extracurricular activities.
Because the program almost entirely takes place on the Simmons campus and in field sites in the community, it's likely you will need to be in Boston for the academic year and at least some summers. The 3+1 faculty advisors can direct you on how the schedule will work for your program.
No. The 3 + 1 option is only available to students who enroll in our (all women) undergraduate program.
Depending on an individual's plan and progress, students may save significantly on both tuition and living expenses.
Yes. If you complete all your academic requirements in three years, you will earn your bachelor degree.
No. You will apply for financial aid as you normally do.
Based on our extensive knowledge of the fields represented, the 3+1 Program will position graduates with an "edge" in the marketplace. You'll be seen as motivated, accomplished, and hard working.
And because the 3+1 Program doesn't cut corners - you complete the same requirements as traditional students but in a shorter amount of time - your credentials and experience will be competitive with other candidates'.
Yes! The strategic combination of course sequencing, complementary learning, and faculty mentoring make the 3+1 an appealing, feasible option. Finishing two degrees in four years will take organization and dedication. Yet in a competitive job market, we anticipate that you'll find the high-quality results and cost savings to be well worth it.

Bad (Jewish) Hair Day
I have not met a woman that doesn't have a bad hair day. There are different hair types that have degrees of bad hair day, and those who are born with the traditional Jewish curly hair are some of those who have the hardest time keeping their tresses in order.
"Jewish" hair is usually dark kinky hair that can be frizzy. It takes a lot of product and finesse to get it to look and feel the way the person would like.
Here are some tips on what to do those days where spending time on your hair is not going to happen:
It perplexes me why more women don't know the value and greatness of a single braid down the back, but get to know it. It can look so chic, yet simple. Step it up with beautiful fun bobby pins, like the Happy-Go-Lucky Bobby Set. For a more sporty look put on a great non-slip headband like the Woven Pink Argyle. Use them to hold back loose hairs, or just to dress up your hair.
For those of you looking for something to cover a little more, try a headbandana. What's a headbandana, you ask? It's like a scarf you tie behind your hair, but it's already made into a headband so you don't have to tie it at all. My mother would call this a schmata (Urban Dictionary: noun – unfashionable piece of clothing; something you should not be caught dead wearing), but if she does, I'd say it's a chic one. My favorite ones are the Cappuccino by Danielle Loporto.
There are times when you just need to get your hair out of your face and away with a bun or chignon. I have tried these fantastic Goody Spin Pins. Two of them keeps your bun staying up all day long. For those of you who are skeptical, so was I, but they actually do work! Mix it up and use these with pretty bobby pins, and again you're accessorizing your plain bun.
Something I tried recently that surprised me is dry shampoo. It certainly doesn't clean your hair, but it does remove the oil if you need. I like the Suave Dry Shampoo because it works and it's under $4. Win-win!
Who said a bad hair day had to look bad?

Is Suboxone less addictive and easier to get off of than methadone?
- Q: My sister was addicted to Oxycontin for five years and then went to a doctor that treated her with methadone, in which she was addictive to for 3 more years. She is now on the Suboxone 12 step program with another doctor and is off the methadone. She is taking a very low dose. The doctor said to start with four a day, but due to the cost she is able to get by with one a day without symptoms. Is the Suboxone a good way to do what she is trying to do, which is to be drug free within a year? Will the Suboxone be easier to get off of than the methadone was?
- A: Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone) is a combination opioid medication and is used to treat opiate addiction. Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone) is categorized as a Schedule III drug. Methadone is a narcotic pain reliever and is also used as part of drug addiction detoxification and maintenance programs. Methadone is categorized as a Schedule II drug, which is a higher abuse-risk classification than that of Suboxone. Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone) is not considered as addictive as methadone. According to the research available for Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone), it is best to take it exactly as directed by a health care provider and patients are advised against changing the dose without first talking to their doctor. Your sister may want to consult with her health care provider regarding the cost issue and decide if this is best treatment option. Both Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone) and methadone can cause drug dependence and may lead to withdrawal symptoms with abrupt discontinuation. It is important to discuss tapering off Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone) with your sister

How do Barack Obama and Mitt Romney measure up as the next phase of the 2012 campaign begins? The May issue of AEI's Political Report surveys the surveys on the presidential candidates, sizing them up on policy and personality. The editors find the contenders evenly matched on handling the country's top issue, the economy. Views about the economy are still fragile, with around seven in ten in most polls saying the country is in a recession. More than two-thirds know someone who has lost a job in the past six months and people don't feel better off than they were four years ago. At the same time, pluralities in an NBC/Wall Street Journal poll were not confident either man would make much difference on the economy. In other policy areas, Barack Obama leads Mitt Romney on handling foreign policy and taxes, two traditional GOP strengths. Romney is strong where President Obama is especially weak, on handling gas prices and energy policy. On likeability, Romney has a distance to go to match Obama, but Romney scores well on questions that ask about leadership qualities.
At this early stage, Michelle Obama is a great asset, better known and more popular than Ann Romney. Vice President Biden's ratings trail those of the president. There also seems to be support for each candidate's messages of opportunity and fairness.
The report also examines new polls on the Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street, how important women's health issues will be in the campaign, and how people view their pets.

text: As Facebook is rumored to be working on 15-second video ads that would start automatically (it's still unclear whether audio will accompany these ads), user response has been overwhelmingly negative. But one video-animation firm thinks that there's a way that the social network can serve video ads on mobile devices without disrupting the user experience. Derek Merdinyan, founder of Video Igniter, thinks that a photo-based ad unit where users turn the phone landscape-style to view a video could be a way for Facebook to make video ads work somewhat peacefully.

This is a bit subjective, but the colors used on the Developers' Forum seem confusing. I would generally think of a gray-ish color to represent a visited link and a more traditional blue link to be new. Right now they're the opposite of this, could they be swapped?

Having My ADHD Interrupted
A week ago (it seems like five minutes ago, with my crazy schedule these days), I had the delightful opportunity to meet the equally delightful Alina Kislenko.
I'd known about Alina for quite some time, as we'd "met" online through our shared work in the ADHD world (and being full-fledged members of the tribe ourselves). I was totally pumped when Alina invited me to attend her support group after she'd interviewed me for her radio program, Strange Brains for CFRU 93.3 FM in Guelph, Ontario, Canada (4:00 p.m. Thursdays).
(On the other hand, inviting someone to a therapy group after you've interviewed them seems mildly suspicious, does it not? Anyway. You know me. Jump in with both feet, I say. ADHD'll make you do that…)
Alina was quirky, professional, fun, personable and a joy to work with. Our conversation flowed so well that one show turned into two which turned into dinner and a support group meeting. (I know, I know, not your typical first date of dinner and a movie, but what the hey – we're ADHD professionals. That's what we do, baby!)
What would a group with a kick-*ss title like CBT for ADHD be like? I wondered.
Who could resist going to a group whose name wields such powerful and mysterious acronyms?
And who could resist going to a group whose name wields such powerful and mysterious acronyms? Certainly not me. It was like being invited to a clandestine gathering, the Knights Templar or something of that ilk. Go ahead – say it out loud – "CBT for ADHD." Your neuro-typical friends will be awe-stricken. They won't know what the hell you're talking about. They might even be frightened for you. I couldn't wait.
Alina proved to be the quintessential group leader – warm and engaging without dominating the meeting. She skilfully led us through a discussion by first asking what topics we'd like to discuss, then taking a vote to decide which one we'd pick. She injected the occasional "fun fact" taken from her impressive memory banks stocked with relevant research about ADHD and related topics, and she successfully drew out the more reluctant speakers with her gentle persuasion.
Based on the chosen topic, Alina was able to provide an exercise to help each of us come up with our own way to modify our thinking and behavior in a situation where our meta-thinking and self-awareness had failed us. We were even encouraged to do homework, that is, to practice our custom-tailored solutions throughout the upcoming week.
Most impressively, she didn't allow the extroverted chatterbox ADHD expert (and the only other female in attendance) to dominate the conversation. (Yup. That would be me.)
I was very happy when one of the group members purchased a copy of my book after the meeting (it's helpful for men too).
That, plus the twenty bucks would put gas in my car so I could get home that evening.
If you haven't already discovered her, I'd highly encourage you to head on over to Alina's website, ADHD Interrupted, to check out her blog posts; her wonderful gadget recommendations; and links to her podcasts (shows focused on ADHD, Aspergers, Learning Disabilities, and all kinds of topics relating to our mysterious minds).
And finally, if you're in range of the program, our first interview session will air Thursday, September 5, 2013 on CFRU 93.3, Guelph, Ontario, so please tune in or check out the podcast afterwards.
Zoë Kessler is an award-winning author, journalist, and speaker specializing in women and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD / ADD).
A frequent contributor to ADDitude Magazine, Kessler has also created video, standup comedy, and guest blogs (TotallyADD, ADHD and Marriage) covering ADHD-related topics.
Zoë holds a Bachelor of Education, and has created and facilitated specialized programs for at-risk youth using therapeutic drumming. The majority of students are public school kids with ADHD, or, as she would say, "my people."
Zoë, an internationally recognized ADHD expert, has been interviewed on radio and featured in magazine articles, documentaries, and books on the topic of women and ADHD across North America.
Her upcoming memoir for New Harbinger Publications about life with ADHD will be available September 1, 2013.

"I wanted to update my review. This frosting is EXCELLENT. It tastes light and refreshing BUT it is STURDY!! I've made several cakes (uploaded my castle and luau cake) with this frosting and it holds up great. It has a nice shiny appearance as well. I can't get over how excellent it is.
*Just added my Pinkalicious cake made with this icing..."
"This is amazing. I topped it with cool whip and strawberries. I passed this recipe to a friend and she made it for a dinner party where it also received rave reviews. So simple, so awesome! Also, it does make a lot."
"I served this at a family picnic and everyone loved it. Even my husband who likes a very particular type of mac salad (one with olives and pickles and eggs, etc that I do NOT like) thought this was good. I can see why this is the best rated. I followed the recipe for the dressing exactly but only added carrots and celery and onion as my veggie..."
"Really yummy! However, I had to bake mine about 3-4 minutes longer. Otherwise don't change a thing."
"This is how my mom has always made it and how I make it. The best ever!"
"Great pizza!"
"The only complaint I got about these was that I did not make enough! I used red potatoes (I just like them) and baked at 400 for 30 minutes and then broiled for 4 minutes on each side. I also used seasoned salt. My husband has raved about these all night and my son was disappointed there were not more!"
"I only use the marshmallow creme and cream cheese (no juice) and it's excellent as is!"
"My husband said these are the best homemade chicken wings he has ever had. If he could make it any better he would love to have thicker sauce..."
"It's pretty good. I made one with green pepper, onions, and tomatos and liked that better than the one w/ broccoli & tomato. The kids are eating (3&5 years old) so thats always a keeper in my house!"

Offer: Academic Fellowship Program of the Open Society Foundation's International Higher Education Support Program
Academic Fellowship Program
The Academic Fellowship Program of the Open Society Foundations International Higher Education Support Program contributes to higher education reform by supporting promising local scholars and assisting progressive universities in certain countries of South Eastern Europe and Eurasia.
Launched by the International Higher Education Support Program in 2004, the Academic Fellowship Program has evolved to meet the changing and varied educational challenges in the regions in which it works.
While responding to the impacts of political, economic, and social change on higher education, the program continues to maintain its fundamental commitment to the importance of promoting higher education reform as a key component of bolstering open, democratic societies.
Changing the Face of Education
Higher education reform efforts in the countries targeted by the Academic Fellowship Program are often impeded by lack of funding, ineffective education policies, poor planning and management, reliance on traditional curricula that emphasize passive rather than active learning, limited flexibility in career choices, corruption, and elitism. The program seeks to diminish these obstacles by focusing on both individual scholars and educational institutions, and helping to build local, regional, and global academic networks.
The Academic Fellowship Program supports promising local scholars through the Returning Scholars Fellowship Program. The fellowship promotes the return of scholars to the region, their positioning within academe, and their continued professional development.
The program also assists reform-minded university departments in their efforts to achieve world-class academic stature and become models of innovation and reform. The Academic Fellowship Program through the International Scholars Fellowship Program selects highly qualified scholars in the social sciences and humanities to assist these partner departments.
Returning Scholars Fellowship Program
The program, as part of a conscious strategy to combat "brain drain" in the social sciences and humanities, supports talented young scholars who, after earning a postgraduate degree abroad, seek university positions and academic careers in their home countries. Securing the services of such scholars is essential to the revitalization of academic departments and the sustainability of higher education reforms, to which Academic Fellowship Program also contributes. The program offers scholars financial, institutional, and professional development support, as well as opportunities for further professional growth as program alumni.
For more information, view the Returning Scholars grant guidelines.
International Scholars Fellowship Program
The program selects highly qualified scholars in the social sciences and humanities to assist partner departments where Returning Scholars are placed. The International Scholars advise on the overall reform agenda of the departments and share the latest developments in the respective disciplines, and beyond, with departmental colleagues; collaborate on the introduction of new courses; and encourage the development of skills that are crucial for academic success. One of the greatest, and most needed, contributions that International Scholars make is the expert advice they offer on curriculum development and academic planning.
For more information, view the International Scholars grant guidelines.
Program Effectiveness
Academic Fellowship Program Returning Scholars come to AFP along with departments that have been carefully selected as program partners. Partnerships are established on the basis of a department's openness to change and advancement, and clear visions for future development. Returning Scholars working in such environments will find the support and encouragement they need to launch and pursue their academic careers while at the same time contributing to the development of the departments. Partner departments are encouraged to take the lead in recruiting qualified Returning and International Scholars whose professional profiles match departmental needs.
Returning Scholars, along with their International Scholar peers, benefit from the Academic Fellowship Program's innovative online instrument: the Academic Webfolio Project. Essentially a collective academic workshop, it provides fellows with an open forum to present academic materials and ongoing work that reflect their professional development as scholars and university teachers.
Posting the materials encourages fellows' self-reflection and allows for ongoing peer and expert review and commentary. The Academic Webfolio Project also serves as the platform for the work of the program's Discipline Groups. These groups have been established to facilitate academic interaction and cooperation among fellows who share similar scholarly interests but are scattered across different universities and countries. The Discipline Groups' activities are greatly aided by features available on the Webfolio website.
The Webfolio website's open, community format provides a convenient and effective opportunity for scholarly dialogue, collaboration, assistance, and access to the collective academic expertise offered by the Academic Fellowship Program's fellows, the faculty members of its partner departments, and other Open Society Foundations programs.
Partner Departments
Departments are chosen based on several criteria: awareness of the need for educational reform and opportunities, demonstrated willingness to embrace change, and concrete, realistic plans for achieving lasting reform. The Academic Fellowship Program gathers detailed information on departments at universities throughout the region, using written questionnaires, interviews, and site visits. Departments meeting program criteria are invited to submit detailed proposals for program support, outlining their plans for departmental development over the course of several years. Based on these proposals, the Academic Fellowship Program's Academic Advisory Council selects the most promising departments for collaboration.
Academic Fellowship Program partner departments benefit in many ways from the presence and activities of International Scholars and Returning Scholars. The program invites fellows to submit proposals for Departmental Development Projects, and encourages fellows to play an active role in the implementation of the program's strategy for partner departments as agreed with the departments. The Mobility Fund is designed to support faculty visits between program partner departments. Funding for Professional Development Projects is also available for Returning Scholars, and professional development and training opportunities exist for core faculty (non-program scholars) as well. Specific areas of focus include curriculum development and teaching excellence. The Academic Fellowship Program promotes best practices in education through other activities such as training events, workshops, roundtables, and targeted mobility programs. The program expects, and also provides support for, projects to extend the impact of teaching by incorporating fellows' research in their teaching.
Alumni Involvement
The Academic Fellowship Program treats alumni as a core component by integrating them into ongoing education reform efforts and providing them with a framework for regional and international collaboration. The program's Alumni Fund offers financial support to alumni who wish to contribute their extensive academic expertise and professional skills to the development of partner departments, or who facilitate program work in the Academic Fellowship Program's Discipline Groups and their meetings. The fund is open to Academic Fellowship Program alumni as well as to alumni of the Civic Education Project, and the Support for Community Outreach and University Teaching Program (SCOUT).
Academic Fields
The Academic Fellowship Program supports scholars pursuing humanities and social sciences disciplines, including:
-- anthropology
-- area/cultural studies
-- economics
-- environmental studies
-- gender studies
-- history
-- human rights and public law
-- international relations
-- journalism/media studies
-- philosophy
-- political science
-- psychology
-- public policy/public health
-- social work
-- sociology

WASHINGTON, D.C. 20510 September 1, 1987 Mr. Ken Aubel 19 Alpha Park Highland Heights, Ohio ~41~3 Dear Mr. Aubel: Thank you for contacting me in opposition to a ban on smoking in airplanes. Although I appreciate having your views on this issue, I support efforts to further restrict smokin~ on airplanes and other public conveyances° The link between cigarette smoking and several serious illnesses -- including such deadly diseases as lung cancer, emphysema and heart disease -- is undisputed. The federal government has played, and must continue to play, a major role in alerting the public to these hazards so that Americans can make informed decisions regarding the use of tobacco. Several federal efforts, including the banning of television advertising of tobacco products and the inclusion of health hazard warnings on packages of cigarettes and smokeless tobacco, are proving successful in reducing smoking and, thereby, the incidence of smoking-related sickness. However, smoking continues to be a major health danger, and I believe the federal government can and should do more to reduce this threat. I am very concerned about th~ danger that "passive smoke" can pose to non-smokers. The latest scientific evidence indicates that non-smokers are harmed by the smoke from others. The Surgeon General's December 1986 report, The Health Conseqg~nces of Involuntary Smoking, concluded that involuntary smoking is a cause of disease in healthy non-smokers. Consequently, I have cosponsored legislation which would prohibit smoking in commercial airplanes, buses, or trains. Senate bill, S. 51, the "Prohibition of Smoking in Public Conveyances Act of 1987", was introduced in the Senate on January 6, 1987, and it is my hope that this ban on smoking in public conveyances will be passed by the 100th Congress. I regret that we disagree on this matter and appreciate having the opportunity to explain the reasons for my support Ti0045-0989

Vital Energi is unveiling its state-of-the-art Kings Cross Energy Centre at a special event in November.
The sustainable energy specialist is providing tours of the Energy Centre - one of the largest and most significant community heating projects ever undertaken. It plans to highlight how the low carbon community energy scheme at Kings Cross can work for other developments across the country.
The Kings Cross development is Europe's largest city centre regeneration scheme and one of the UK's most significant and high profile developments. The £2 billion, 67-acre scheme even has its own postcode – N1C.
Vital Energi has designed and built a pioneering community energy system which will supply heat and power to the development's eight million square foot of offices, shops, homes and a university and significantly contribute to the development's target of halving its carbon emissions.
It worked in partnership on the project with the Kings Cross Energy Services Company (ESCo), Metropolitan Kings Cross Ltd (a joint venture between Argent and Metropolitan).
Vital Energi's Kings Cross Energy Centre Event is on Thursday 22 November 2012 at the Granary Square Building on the Kings Cross site from 9.30am to 4pm.
Presentations will be given by key representatives from Vital Energi, Clare Hebbes Project Director at developer Argent and John Marsh Operations Director at utility and energy infrastructure company, Metropolitan. Tours of the energy centre and development site will be provided.
Ian Whitelock, joint Managing Director of Vital Energi, said: "Increasingly, developments of the scale and calibre of Kings Cross are realising the environmental and economic benefits of choosing a sustainable energy supply over traditional sources."
John Marsh, Director of Metropolitan Kings Cross, commented: "Vital Energi provides expertise and integrates into the greater team. Its employees are very professional and work well with our project manager and also the developer's on site team."
For more information, or to book a place at the event, please contact Abby Jones at Vital Energi on +44 (0)1254 295 460 or firstname.lastname@example.com

"Rays of the Bay" Touch Tank Exhibit Opens March 16 at the Estuarium at the Dauphin Island Sea Lab
Jan 18, 2013
The Estuarium at the Dauphin Island Sea Lab is about to open its first outdoor touch tank, an exciting exhibit that invites visitors to learn about the "Rays of the Bay." This 6,400-gallon tank will house cownose rays and southern stingrays, and visitors will be allowed to gently touch these animals once the exhibit opens on Saturday, March 16.
"Rays of the Bay" is sponsored by Lulu's at Homeport Restaurant and the Hearin-Chandler Foundation.
"We're so pleased to offer this exhibit so all our visitors, whether they're local or visiting from around the world, can learn about these creatures that inhabit our local waters," said Dr. John Dindo, Associate Director at the Sea Lab. "The Sea Lab has been a steady proponent of hands-on education; we believe that experiential learning leads to life-long learning, and what could be more hands-on than having the ability to stroke a ray?"
The Sea Lab, in its commitment to alternative energy sources, will operate the touch tank through a geothermal heating and cooling system, keeping the saltwater temperature at a comfortable 70 degrees year-round. The heat pump loops are buried in a freshwater aquifer 170 feet below ground, where the temperature is a constant 70 degrees. The freshwater circuit will heat or cool the saltwater circuits, depending on the need.
"Not only is this more cost-effective than paying to continually heat or cool the tank," adds Dr. Dindo, "this is in line with all our other efforts to support and promote alternative energy. We already have solar power and a permeable parking lot; this is a natural next step, and we want our visitors to learn about this as well as the rays."
Visitors will be able to visit this unique showcase on Saturday, March 16.

Hey everyone!!
Today I'm going to be explaining the benefits of a super underrated beauty secret and give you some at home easy-to-do moisturizing masks.
As well as being extremely delicious, avocados are also amazing for your vanity… now that's a win-win! They have high nutritional value and anyone and everyone who eats them regularly knows that they give your skin healthy natural glow.
One avocado contains over 20 vitamins and minerals, and you can literally get your daily supply of fiber, vitamin E and B vitamins in just one fruit. It also contains potassium and is a great source of fiber and folic acid, which is critical for any woman.
Now I know what you are thinking, so I'm just going to say it…yes, avocados are high in fat. An avocado can have about 21 grams, which in turn means about 230 calories each, and of course this depends on the size. But if you think about it, no one really eats a whole avocado and considering that half a chocolate-chip muffin is 400+ calories, even if they did eat a whole one it would still be far less calories that most other snack.
The oil from avocados are used in many beauty products worldwide because of their ability to enhance the skin and the hair. Here are a few recipes that you can try at home:
Avocado and Oatmeal Face-Mask
This is a great face-mask for people with dry skin. I promise, regular use of this at-home remedy will do wonders for your face! Also don't feel limed to just the face, apply it on your hands, arms, legs, anywhere really, as a natural moisturizer.
All you need is:
- ½ Ripe avocado
- ½ Cup of cooked oatmeal
So, start off by cooking and cooling the oatmeal as instructed on the package. Once the oatmeal is cooled mash in the avocado with a fork to combine the two ingredients together. Apply the paste to your skin and after 10 – 15 minutes wash it off with lukewarm water.
Avocado and Olive Oil Hair-Mask
Everyone knows that olive oil is amazing for hydrating hair. It has nourishes, conditions, and improves the strength and elasticity so mixing it with avocado is just multiplying the moisture.
All you need is:
- ½ Ripe avocado
- ½ Cup olive oil
Heat up the olive oil in a bowl until it is just warm. Take the avocado and blend it into the heated olive oil until you form a smooth paste. Apply the paste to you hair and leave in for 20 minutes before washing regularly.
Try these easy at-home-mask recipes and let me know what you think!
And if you're interested, check out these other crazy benefits of this righteous fruit:
- The avocado is considered to be a natural mouthwash and can take away your bad breath.
- Blood pressure can be regulated because of the potassium and folate content.
- Your cholesterol can be controlled because of the oleic and linoleic acids in the avocado, which can reduce the 'bad' cholesterol and raise the "good'.
- With its high folate content, pregnant women will get the amount of folic acid they need for a healthy fetal development.
- Also, the vitamin B6 in the fruit can help relieve morning sickness if you are pregnant.
- The antioxidant content can help your immune system become stronger and neutralize the free radicals that may cause poor eyesight.
- The potassium content helps to balance your electrolytes for healthier nerves and muscles.
- The oil can help soothe the skin condition known as psoriasis.
- The avocado can help soothe the stomach lining if you suffer from a duodenal ulcer because of its bland texture.
Stay Fabulous!
Naheeda ♥

The Live Space Jump and Record Breaking 8 Million YouTube Viewers
- Posted On 15th October 2012
- ·By Anna Francis
- ·In Social Media, Twitter
- ·With 1 Comment
On Sunday October 14th 2012 the world took one large collective breath as Felix Baumgartner jumped out of a capsule 128,000 feet above Earth and managed to land on his feet uninjured in New Mexico.
A worldwide audience watched in anticipation live, via the internet through a simple camera mounted on the capsule, as he gave a quick thumbs up before jumping into what would be an intense 9 minutes of his life.
The leap (known as the "Red Bull Stratos" thanks to its sponsors) from the edge of the stratosphere managed to break not only the sound barrier but also the record for the highest number of YouTube viewers.
With a total of over 8 million viewers the video smashed the existing record, with AllThingsD stating the previous record to be:
"Around 500,000 concurrent streams, which Google served up during the Olympics this summer."
With the video being streamed live for anyone across the world to view, could this be the start of a new era with YouTube channels taking over from mainstream television for live events?
On Twitter over half the worldwide trending topics were related to Felix's jump and celebrities worldwide were tweeting about the event:
The Official Twitter account for Red Bull Stratos gained 103,129 followers and below you can see the 3 main hashtags used throughout the event on Twitter:
After Felix had safely landed, the event sponsor Red Bull posted a picture of him on his knees to their Facebook page. This picture was shared 29,000 times in the first 40 minutes and generated over 493,000 likes and 14,5000 comments. Using both Facebook and Twitter, Red Bull invited questions for Felix stating that 3 of them would be answered by the man himself at the post-jump conference.
This is a fantastic story of a man brave enough to jump from the edge of space back to earth but it is also an interesting take on how fast YouTube is becoming mainstream media and poses the question: how quickly could it take over as a global network?

Determine rotation vector from quaternion
The Quaternions to Rotation Angles block converts the four-element quaternion vector (q0, q1, q2, q3) into the rotation described by the three rotation angles (R1, R2, R3). The block generates the conversion by comparing elements in the direction cosine matrix (DCM) as a function of the rotation angles. The elements in the DCM are functions of a unit quaternion vector. For example, for the rotation order z-y-x, the DCM is defined as:
The DCM defined by a unit quaternion vector is:
From the preceding equation, you can derive the following relationships between DCM elements and individual rotation angles for a ZYX rotation order:
where Ψ is R1, Θ is R2, and Φ is R3.
|Dimension Type
|4-by-1 quaternion vector
|Contains the quaternion vector.
|Dimension Type
|3-by-3 vector
|Contains the rotation angles, in radians.
The limitations for the 'ZYX', 'ZXY', 'YXZ', 'YZX', 'XYZ', and 'XZY' implementations generate an R2 angle that is between ±90 degrees, and R1 and R3 angles that are between ±180 degrees.
The limitations for the 'ZYZ', 'ZXZ', 'YXY', 'YZY', 'XYX', and 'XZX' implementations generate an R2 angle that is between 0 and 180 degrees, and R1 and R3 angles that are between ±180 degrees.

February 2009
I follow stories on ESPN.com via the site's RSS feeds. Lately I kept looking and wondering what was different about the items -- my copy editor sense was tingling like crazy.
Now I realize: Most of the headlines include full team names, when teams are mentioned, and full names of people.
A headline that, written for a newspaper, might read, "Jones mum on TO's release," now reads like the highlighted headline in the screen shot accompanying this post:
"Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones rebuffs ESPN report on Terrell Owens release discussions"
The marching pace of sucky economic news for American newspapers and their holding companies quickened again yesterday.
Papers' suffering began before the current economic crisis. We already occupied the front seats as the roller coaster started down this twisty slope. Sweeping global deleveraging makes quite the thrill ride, like an out-of-body experience during your own massive heart attack.
Just in time for me to forget (almost) that I'd done it, today ReelSEO published an interview with me from September 2008 on the subjects of video content strategy and search optimization.
I'll tease you with an excerpt:
Q: What do you believe are the major challenges/obstacles for newspapers to get their videos out to the search engines and social media networks (and show up prominently in those spaces)?
Greg Sterling reminds us why we all chase advertising dollars from locally focused, small and medium businesses:
"We're in a recession; everything is down including local. And local is harder than other segments because of some of the factors mentioned above. SMBs are hard to sell to and they don't spend lots online. But there are millions of SMBs online in various forms today. As I've argued before, from consumer behavior perspective, local/offline is a much, much bigger deal than anything else going on online. It's just often hard for people to see it."
Ka and I took yesterday off work, expecting to share a rare day of down time. Instead we took Elway, our noble terrier mutt extraordinaire, on his final ride.
We knew the day would come soon -- he was diagnosed with late-stage lymphoma last month -- but hoped for a few more weeks of the ol' Elway vitality. Over the weekend, though, we realized he just could not run the yard, eat or even rest comfortably. We took him to the veterinarian, who agreed the time had come to put Elway to rest.
This week, I have either led or participated in at least 12 conference calls with online presentations, aka Webinars. Let's face it, no matter how elegant, all forms of virtual meetings pale in comparison to real face time. But given the effect of our dire economy on many companies' travel budgets, time spent on conference calls and Webinars probably will grow for lots of product manager types.
After many hours every week spent on speakerphone, desktop sharing and compressed PowerPoint slides, I feel compelled to share advice for Webinar hosts, especially vendors trying to sell their wares and services in virtual meetings:
It appears people who still rely on wire-coiled Pringles cans for TV reception may have a few more months to pick up those Everybody Loves Raymond reruns without a digital decoder.
When I worked for a TV manufacturing conglomerate back in 2000-2001, everyone presumed the big switch to digital TV would happen on schedule -- in 2006. We also thought, of course, that one-gigabyte MP3 players would always be impossibly expensive or too huge to be portable, so I'll shut up now about what we thought.
Troubling research findings reported by AFP: TV and video games increase teen depression risk.
Key points:
"Time spent engaging with electronic media may replace time that could be spent on social, athletic or intellectual activities that could guard against depression. ... Being exposed to media at night may also disrupt sleep important for emotional and cognitive development."
I'm not one of those people who believes today's young people have been dumbed down or made unproductive by media saturation, or spoiled by common access to privileges we considered unattainable in my middle-class, small-town childhood. Young people today are smarter and more worldly than we were.

DCU Bulletin
Proposed Fee Increase by Fiscal Growth Factor
November 19, 2007
The mission of the Division of Credit Unions (DCU) is to supervise state chartered credit unions for safety and soundness, in order to protect members' financial interests. By setting the standards that accomplish this mission, the DCU helps maintain a positive business environment for the credit union movement in Washington State, adding value to the state charter.
Since the Department of Financial Institutions is funded by fees from the regulated entities it serves, the agency does not receive money from the state's general fund. In order to continue to provide quality regulatory services, fees must occasionally be increased, to reflect economic reality. This update is authorized by RCW 31.12.516(6) and RCW 43.320.040. Fees have not been increased since 2001-2002.
The DCU is currently preparing to file updated fee regulations. The CR-101 (Preproposal statement of inquiry) (PDF)* will be published in the Washington State Register in November 2007. In December 2007, we expect to publish a draft of the new fee regulations, and stakeholders and other interested parties are encouraged to provide DCU with their comments about the draft.
The regulatory hearing for the CR-102 (Proposed Rulemaking) is expected to take place in Olympia in late February 2008. The estimated fee increase is 5.38%, the current fiscal year 2009 growth factor. See http://www.elc.wa.gov for more information about spending limits. The projected effective date for the fee increase is July 1, 2008, contingent on requirements under Initiative 960.
Rulemaking information is located on our website at: www.dfi.wa.gov/cu. If you have any questions, please contact Joanne Conrad at 360-902-8813 or Linda Jekel at 360-902-8778.

Build a Bus Shelter
"I don't have any real carpentry experience; I taught myself. Last winter I put up three shelters where I'd seen kids catching the school bus, standing out in the elements. I got some of the materials from houses that were being knocked down. They all have benches. I put up flyers inside the shelters. One says, 'You can be anything you want to be: governor, president...' Another says, 'You can be all of those things, but first brush your teeth and comb your hair.' The kids thank me all the time. This summer, I want them to use 'em as lemonade stands." Omowali Lumumba, Carthage, Texas

Andy, a biochemistry and molecular biology major, is also minoring in theater (now that's a combination you don't see everyday). As part of his senior project, he has combined his two loves by writing, producing, directing and now starring in…Read more »

You've heard their voices on ''Grey's Anatomy,'' as opening acts, in the blogosphere -- we're betting a lot of music fans will be talking about them in the years ahead
Earlier this year, we turned you on to nine new female singer-songwriters we love. Now, here's our tipsheet of eight most promising male singer-songwriters.
The Backstory Thanks in part to fan John Mayer, who's taking him on tour this summer, the 28-year-old Californian's tender, raspy-voiced ballads are gaining wider notice. His songs have also turned up on Grey's Anatomy and American Idol.
For Fans of Mayer, Jason Mraz, Dave Matthews, and other melody hounds plus hall-of-famers James Taylor and Paul Simon. Released nearly a year and a half ago, Dennen's debut, So Much More, is a stealthy, still-climbing seller.

The stack is this chain of suspended function calls, because elements in the stack (function calls) depend on each other.
In a stack of items, items sit one on top of the other in the order they were placed there, and you can only remove the top one (without toppling the whole thing over).
The heap is simply the memory used by programs to store variables. Element of the heap (variables) have no dependencies with each other and can always be accessed randomly at any time.
In a heap, there is no particular order to the way items are placed. You can reach in and remove items in any order because there is no clear 'top' item.

Ellie Mae Reports Third Quarter 2012 Results
"Throughout the year we have made significant progress on building a strong foundation to accommodate continued growth with investments in expanding our data centers and our sales and implementation teams, and enhancing our product offerings," continued Mr. Anderman.
"Given our results to date and the revised forecasts for mortgage origination volume for the remainder of 2012, we are raising our full year guidance to reflect revenues of between $99.5 million and $100 million. Even in the face of currently available blended forecasts projecting a 19% decline in industry mortgage volume next year, we expect to grow our top line revenues by at least 25% in 2013," Mr. Anderman concluded.
Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2012 Financial Outlook
The October 2012 composite forecast of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the Mortgage Bankers Association for 2012 mortgage origination volume is approximately $1.8 trillion, which represents a 24% increase from actual mortgage volume in 2011 and a 23% increase from the July 2012 composite forecast of $1.5 trillion. These organizations publish monthly updates of their annual and quarterly forecasts. The October 2012 composite forecast for the full year 2013 mortgage origination volume is approximately $1.5 trillion. The October 2012 composite quarterly forecast for 2012 origination volume is as follows:

The list is sorted by rating, and then alphabetically by institution name.All of the Illinois banks and thrifts on Weiss's recommended list were strongly capitalized as of Dec. 30, with total risk-based capital ratios exceeding 13% and 34 had total risk-based capital ratios exceeding 20% or twice the level most institutions need to be considered well-capitalized by regulators.

Since the current wave of bank and thrift closures began in 2008, Illinois has seen 48 institutions closed by regulators, trailing only Georgia, which has had 75 failures and Florida, which has had 60 bank and thrift closures.

Motorola HC1: Google Goggles for the enterprise
Hhead-mounted computer is aimed at enterprises
By Nick Barber | Published: 08:50, 22 October 2012
Motorola Solutions has unveiled a head-mounted, voice-controlled computer that's targeted at the military and other industries where workers need hands-free access to information.
Called the HC1, the device runs on an ARM processor and has an optional camera to send back real-time video over a wireless network.
Unlike Google Goggles, though, the HC1 is aimed at the enterprise market with a price tag of US$4,000-$5,000 per unit.
Related Articles on Techworld
Areas the company has been experimenting with include "high-end repair markets," such as aircraft engines, said Paul Steinberg, CTO of Motorola Solutions (which is the part of Motorola Google did not acquire). "Emergency medical personnel at trauma centers might be looking at this too."
The HC1 will augment what users see by providing additional data, he said. Multiple units could be networked together and share information.
See the HC1 in a video on YouTube.
One difficulty with products like the HC1 can be finding the exact position for the screen, so the user can see what's being displayed. The voice commands and gesture controls seemed accurate and responsive when a reporter tried them, however. Calling out category headings opens new applications.
The so-called "optical micro-display" from Kopin Corporation is supposed to simulate a view of a 15-inch screen.
The HC1 runs Microsoft Windows CE 6.0 Professional. When it ships in the first half of 2013 it will come with Wi-Fi connectivity, but Steinberg said it could eventually have 3G and 4G radios.

Moccasins Eighth in Initial NCAA D-II South Regional Rankings
INDIANAPOLIS - In the initial NCAA Division II regional men's tennis rankings for the 2014 season that were released late on Wednesday, Florida Southern is ranked eighth and is five Sunshine State Conference schools included in the poll.
The regional rankings are used to determine postseason bids for the NCAA Division II Tournament, with 48 teams earning berths, including seven teams from the South Region. The conference champions from the Sunshine State, Gulf South and SIAC receive an automatic bid. Those three champions are guaranteed spots in the NCAA Tournament regardless of overall record, with the final four spots filled by at-large selections.
FSC, who is 10-9 overall and 2-7 in-region, is one of five SSC schools ranked in the South Regional poll as the Moccasins are joined in the poll by Barry (14-2 overall, 10-1 in-region) at No. 2, Lynn (9-5 overall, 7-4 in-region) is at No. 3, Saint Leo (13-3 overall, 5-3 in-region) is at No. 4 and Rollins (8-7 overall, 3-4 in-region) is seventh.
Joining the five SSC schools in the initial rankings are three GSC and one SIAC school. West Florida (17-0 overall, 16-0 in-region) is ranked No. 1, while West Alabama (17-1 overall, 14-1 in-region) is fifth, Valdosta State (10-5 overall, 9-4 in-region) is sixth and Stillman (14-3 overall, 14-3 in-region), who is from the SIAC, is ninth.
The seven teams selected for the NCAA Tournament from the South Region, which will be formally announced online at www.ncaa.com on Tuesday, April 29, will compete in two preliminary-rounds tournaments at campus sites in the region. The two winning teams from each preliminary site will advance to the 2014 NCAA D-II National Championships, which is scheduled for May 14-17 at Sanlando Park in Altamonte Springs, Fla., and is hosted by the Central Florida Sports Commission and Rollins College. The two preliminary South Regional tournaments are scheduled for May 3-6.
FSC, who is ranked 32nd nationally in the latest ITA Division II Tennis rankings, will return to action on April 24-26 as they travel to Winter Park to compete in the 2014 SSC Championships. The Mocs, who finished 2-4 in the SSC regular season standings, is currently fifth in the league standings.

The Sixth Annual VDB/GMD Political Barbeque and Hamburger Summit
Thank you Philip, and John (sorry I missed you), and wonderful to see everyone there today- Selene, Maggie, Ed, Jack, Kesha, Minor H, Bill, Seth, Charity and all other wonderful friends who make this event so special every year.

Classic Blogger Picture
In today's VDB post Philip laments having less time to blog since joining the Vermont Senate, and doing so somehow manages to publish this awesome picture again. If you recall, it's a group photo from the first blogger barbecue in 2006. My little girl wasn't even born yet, and the only traditional media to show up that day was the publisher of The Vermont Guardian, Shay Totten.

Political BBQ 2008
The family and I are just back from the 3rd annual Political Barbecue and Hamburger Summit hosted by Philip Baruth and John Odum. Thanks to our fabulous hosts, the thing was a rockin' success once again.
The crowd size was similar to those of the last two years, even if its composition was a little different. We didn't see Charity there, and of course Bill was out of town- but most of the pillars were in attendance- Steve Benen, Jack McCullough, Jay Vos, Julie Waters, JD Ryan, Christian Avard, Neil Jensen, Linda from the Northeast Kingdom, and many many more. There was the whole Brattleboro crew including Steve and Gorty from the radio.
As for politicians, we had Anthony Pollina who genuinely seemed to remember our one meeting 19 years ago in Bernie's office. "You're still around?" he asked me. Gaye Symmington was there, and Chris Pearson… Kesha Ram showed up toward the end… Mark Larson was hanging out. Neither Ed or TJ made it, but I guess we'll forgive them. Selene wasn't there either- but not because of a birthday party as I mistakenly said in a previous post, but because she had to attend an event in another part of the state with Peter Welch. I heard her dad was there, but I didn't see him.
We brought a few of Poopsie's unbelievable grape leaf lamb dolmas which got gobbled up quickly. And the lake was relatively clean too so Poopsie, Koko, Yanna and I splashed around for a while. Poopsie ate a brat. Koko ate a hot dog and I ate a bunless burger with ketchup. Poopsie wouldn't let Philip toss the leftover watermelon, so I had to find a way to carry it home.
I love the blogger barbecue and have genuinely had a good time all three years. That's weird for me because I generally hate social events like that- but among the pols and the bloggers, I actually feel like I belong. And that's special.
Good times. Good times.

Dean to attend BBQ (Maybe)
Wow. Looks like Odum got Howard Dean to agree to go to the Second Annual Blogger Barbecue at North Beach on July 15 (1-5pm). Well, sort of. It wasn't a hard commitment, but at least Dean told somebody to write it down.
