You'll need a developer, that will match the choosed color (the color that you wish to get after coloring).20 vol. developer is for grey non-colored natural hair if you want to color your hair tone-to-tone or darker; or for natural hair if you want make your hair lighter up to 2 levels, 40 - for natural hair if you want to make your hair lighter up to 4 levels

20 volume/6% is the appropriate formula for hair which is either light and/or gray and you wish the color to "deposit" to the hair. Any higher percent % formula is used only for highlighting hair.By Catherine from Newport Beach, CA on April 30, 2013
The answer is that it really depends on what you are trying to do and what your base (natural color) is. If you are very gray - you can 10 or 20 volume. My hair is very gray and very resistant so I use the 20 volume. Remember that the stronger the developer, the more lift you are getting and the weaker the developer, the more color you are depositing. Grey hair needs more color and less developer. I would say that 20 volume would be just fine for your use.By Katharine from Canonsburg, PA on April 30, 2013
The volume or % of developer lotion you use is dependent upon what level you want to lighten your hair to.The 6 N shade is simply to help cover the grey, so what other Topchic color are your going to be adding to the 6N to make your hair a lighter color? A general rule of thumb is that if you are going darker than your existing base color then you should use the 10 vol. If you are staying at the same level or going one level lighter than your existing base shade then you should use the 20 vol. If you are going 2 - 3 levels lighter than your exisitng base shade then you should use the 30 vol. If you are going 3 - 4 levels lighter than your existing base shade then you should use the 40 vol. Be careful to watch the mixing ratio of the color and the developer and the processing time, especially when you increase the volume of the developer. Also rememebr that the Topchic color should only be used on the rooted area of your hair. You will need to use the Goldwell Colorance hair color mixed with the Colorance lotion for the shaft of your hair.
By Jennifer from West Hartford, CT on April 30, 2013
It depends on the starting level and shade of the hair, its condition and the level of the color you are using. Hair color has both a level (1 is black, 10 is light blonde) and shades (or tones). Level is an expression of the relative darkness or lightness, and shade indicates which direction (on a color wheel) it 'pulls.'To understand you need to use a color wheel. Darker levels are towards the interior of the wheel, divided into tones (probably what most people think of as 'colors.'). Say you are aiming for 'red hair.' Some people think of shades that are in the R segment of the wheel, while others really mean K or KG. Now you must consider where you are starting from. If you are lightening very dark hair, red tones will appear as it lightens, even using a neutral shade. The lighter you go, the more red appears (although it also depends on the individual's hair pigment makeup). If you are lightening dark hair and DON'T want red tones, you must use a shade from the opposite side of the color wheel to neutralize (Ash). Developer strength indicates how many levels lighter. So 20 volume brings the hair up to 1 level lighter. 30 volume 2 levels lighter and 40 volume 3-4 levels (though Goldwell recommends use of blonding cream for this level of lift).

30 volumeBy Lori M from Winderemere, Fl on April 30, 2013
I use 7N with topchic developer lotion 20 volume. You can also add a bit more developer if you want a lighter color without changing your shade. Great products, I always get asked who does my hair and what products do I use.By Amy from Houston, Texas on April 30, 2013
I always use 20 Volume with every colorBy Kathleen from E. Northport, NY on April 30, 2013
20% volume is a neutral developer. If you want lighter use 30% or a level 7 in the top chic color. I would use the level 7 and not the 30% developer because it would be less damaging to the hair.By Kelly from Portage, MI on April 30, 2013
It depends on your natural color, 20 volume only lifts 2 levels at best, especially if you have dark hair.By Bridgette from philadelphia on May 5, 2013
depends on the starting color - 20 will lift two levels (ie - if you are 4- you will get 6) - the volume of peroxide determines the amount of lift. 20 should be adequate to cover gray and lift two levels.By Shelly from Rochester, NY on September 1, 2012

You do not need to use pump. Just make sure to put lotion in bowl first, before hair color.By Joyce from Chicago on September 1, 2012
No, I actually mix a couple of colors and Goldwell's developer. My formula is equal parts to all ingredients. Even when you touch up roots, it's an equal quantity only smaller amounts of product. Mixing thoroughly will give you the consistency you desire and of course timing is everything.By Karin from California on September 1, 2012
My bottle did not come with a pump. It has a large pop top lid and a small spout under it to dispense the product which works well for measuring..By Michelle from San Francisco, CA on September 1, 2012
There is no pump. I use a bottle with ounce measurements marked on the size to measure and mix the appropriate amounts. It's 1 to 1 ratio with the color, so if you use a bowl, it should be ok if you measure it with something to get the correct 1 to 1.By NANCY from Pleasanton, CA on September 1, 2012
You do not need to use the pump, just be sure that you're using a 1-to-1 ratio of Top Chic hair color and Topchic Developer. I do recommend using the Goldwell Color Measuring bowl with the cannister hair color. The bowl allows you to meaure the developer when you pour it in. You then measure the amount of hair color added from the cannister. It's more accurate and less messy than squeezing from the tubes.By Abigale from Tamarac, FL on September 1, 2012
If you do not have the pump, fear not, you can certainly use the product by pouring the developer into a measuring bowl, it's always good to measure the amount of product you are using.By Michel from NY on September 1, 2012
I measured out the appropriate amount in the bowl there is no need to use the pump.By Kelly from USA on September 1, 2012

You do not need the pump for the developing lotion - it has a flip top lid.By Diane from Northern California on September 1, 2012
No need to order -- or invest in -- a pump. Measuring this fine product out in a bowl works great and it's a very "forgiving" product in that you can utilize non-scientific measuring devices/methods and it still provides great results.By Ms. Picky from Camarillo, CA on September 1, 2012
You xl can pour out the right amount in the bowl. The pump is not necessary, just very neat!By JUDY from ROYSTON, GA on September 1, 2012
you don't need the pump you you measure the right amount out in a bowlBy Tamara from Alexandria, VA on September 1, 2012
I recommend using the pump. It is very easy to use and gives you full control over the product with no chance for a mishap. The pump can be reused and is of very good quality.By Katharine from Canonsburg, PA on September 1, 2012
Developer lotion can simply be poured into whatever container you are using. It does NOT need a special attachment.By Eric from Clearwater, FL on September 1, 2012
No need to use the pump. I use a bowl. You can also buy a bowl which has markings to show proper levels.By Paquito from Henderson, NV on September 1, 2012
I never use the pump. I just measure the appropriate amount in a bowl that I got from coldwell product.By Claire from Daniel Island, SC on September 1, 2012
You can use a glass or plastic bowl to measure the appropriate amount and mix it well with the color. I use an old glass bowl, and mix the developer with the color with the brush with which I color the hair, other times a wooden chopstick or plastic fork. Mix the two well and you'll enjoy lovely results. Hope this helps! ClaireBy APRIL from Buckeye, AZ on September 1, 2012
I use a regular measuring cup and it works just fineBy Venetia from Pompano Beach, FL on September 2, 2012
You do not have to use the pump with this product, you can use the bowl to measure the appropriate about. The pump just makes it easier when you are measuring the developer and color at one time.By Amy from Houston, Texas on September 2, 2012
I use the pump because you need it if you are using the topchic mouse in the can which I also use. it's just easier. there is a skinny tube you buy that has a measurer on the tube. You stick that on the lotion pump(grey side on the pump) and you add your developer lotion first. I put in 50% lotion to 50% color of which I myself use 3 colors of different % that add up to 50%. After you have all of this in the tube, you can then pour it from the tube into the bowl you mention. I used to use the cream product but the color didn't seem to stay true after you had opened the tube and the mouse, although expensive lasts longer I think. It is less messy too! I forgot to tell you that some of the mouse stays in the tube even after it is all dumped into the mixing bowl. I just take the pointed end of the color applicator brush and get the rest of the color out that way from both ends(unscrew the grey part that ou attach to both the pump for the lotion and also the mouse canisters. I have been using this brand for years and a very happy with it especially the mouse!By Angela from North Las Vegas, Nevada on September 2, 2012
You don't need the pump to use this. You can just pour and measure into a bowl. Pump is nice but not necessary!By Carol from Waretown, NJ on September 2, 2012
I have a small bottle that reflects "ounces". I pour in what I need, let it settle, and I have the correct measurement. I am a new Goldwell customer and have to say, that I love the color and how shiny it leave my hair. I just love it.By Dena from CORONA, CA on September 2, 2012
You can just measure out the appropriate amount in a bowl.By Saundra from Oxford, KS on September 2, 2012

No pump needed- I measure the amount in a mixing containerBy Marcella from Dexter, MI on September 3, 2012
I measure the developer into a bowl. I use a scale so I am measuring the amount of developer I use by volume. Put the bowl on the scale and be sure the scale is reset to zero after you place it on the scale. Add the color(s) first and then add developer equal to the amount of color you plan to use.By Paula from San Diego, CA on September 5, 2012
I pour the product into a measuring cup to measure then into a mixing bowl with my color shades. A pump is not required for use.By Theresa from Frankfort, IL on September 6, 2012
To use the developer lotion you can pour the lotion into a bowl and measure the amount.By Judith from Tuxedo Park, New York on September 6, 2012
I did not use a pump just measured it into a marked bottle. I like the product it has a pleasant smell and did not irritate my scalp.By Mari from Streamwood, Illinois on September 6, 2012
You can just measure out the appropriat amount into your bowl...MariBy Jenn from Rockville, Md on September 6, 2012
Hi,No, you don't need the pump. I just squirt it out onto a shallow measuring spoon (it's sort of flattish) and then I brush it into the bowl (w/ one of those dye brushes?) and everything turns out fine. The pump is just if you like it as a way of getting it out of the bottle.
By Cheryl from DC on September 11, 2012
No it is very easy to measure it through other means, but do use something to measure with, because you really should be as exact as possible. I use an OXO Good Grips (slanted on the inside) Mini Angled Measuring Cup, since II am only doing my own color most of the time, I put in one ounce of the Developer and 1 oz. of Goldwell Color (or 2 - !/2 oz's, if you are mixing). I measure the color by displacement....meaning I squeeze the color into the cup with the one ounce of Developer and keep squeezing until the level has come up to the 2.0 ounce mark. Easy Peasy!I apply the color to my roots and leave on for 30-35 minutes. It is a GREAT product. Between the color and the developer I can actually see an enormous difference between this product and the one I used previously. Much less drying out, my hair actually comes out soft. I really like using the Goldwell products.
By shelley from Henderson, NV on October 23, 2012
No, you don't need to use the pump, that I believe is only necessary for the large size colorants. But you do need to measure carefully, so you may want to use a old medicine cup--like you get for Nyquil--something that has 1/4 ounce increments. Good luck!By serena tong from new jersey on October 19, 2014

I'm going to dye my hair with Goldwell's line of Topchic products (2A - Blue Black, and the Topchic Developer Lotion). My question is: What volume should I use? I have dark brown, virgin hair - I want my hair to look exactly like the one on the colour chart (or very similar).
Zero Gravity
By Joyce from Norridge, IL on March 23, 2013
I use 20 volume and I find it lifts and develops for my specifics. if you are within 3 shades of your target color, it does a nice job. I am dark blonde to light brown and choose shades from medium to light blonde. You seem to be at a darker brown so I would stay with 20 volume to go to a black hue. You have untreated, healthy hair! Why risk damage stronger chemicals might create... Your not lifting to go lighter, your just lifting enough to deposit color. It goes without saying you will need to use products to keep your color from fading. I wish you much success!By Katharine from Canonsburg, PA on March 23, 2013
The level of developer that you use is based upon the amount of "lift"you want to get when coloring your hair. You can determine this by knowing what level your natural hair color is then comparing that number to the level of the "new"color you want your hair to be. For example my natural hair color is about a level 6 and when I color it the level I want it to be is around a level 7 therefore I use the 20 vol developer because that is designed to lift the hair color one to two shades. If you want to go 2 - 3 levels lighter than your existing shade then you use a 30 vol developer. If you want to color your hair 3 - 4 levels lighter than the existing shade then you use the 40 vol developer. If you want to color your hair darker than its existing color then you use the 10 vol developer. Also, if you have any grey in your hair then you will need to add an "N" based color to the mixture to help cover the grey.You mix the topchic hair dye with the Topchic developer for the roots and for the hair shaft you use the Colorance hair dye with the Colorance lotion.
By Sasha from Portland, Oregon on March 23, 2013
If the color you want is darker than your natural you can use 3%. 6% might result in more exact color but it is more damagingBy Patti from St Charles, MO on March 23, 2013
Hi Zero. I use 20 volume and have had really good results. I personally use a combination of 6KG and 7KG and it is a good place to start.By Kseniya from Folcroft, PA on March 24, 2013
Hello. topchic developer use as 1:1 with topchicBy Hannah from Royken, Buskerud on March 24, 2013
Always 50% Lotion and X % with color. It depends on if you will mix 2 or 3 colors.Short hair: about 50 /50 cl
Long hair: 100 / 100 cl or more
By Terry from Greendale, Wisconsin on March 25, 2013
The volume you choose really does matter. The 3% 10 volume will lift less color from your hair and deposit more color; resulting in a darker color. The 6% 20 volume will strip more color from your hair and deposit less color; resulting in a lighter color. I learned this the hard way. After using 3% 10 volume for years, I went to a salon who used Goldwell. They used the 6NN with 6% 20 volume and I ended up with a considerably lighter colt on all my new hair growth. Now I use a 75/25 combination with the same color to make a lighter shade.By lina from foxboro, MA on March 26, 2013
it worked really well...the gray hair coverage was excellent.By Joyce Powell from Manchester, NH on December 13, 2014

I use this with Goldwell colorance -Clear and mix equal parts.1/2 developer lotion and 1/2 clear colorance.
By Melissa from Illinois on February 9, 2012
I am not a professional and use this product at home. What I do is mix equal parts of the Topchic color with the Goldwell developer lotion. It works great and I have been using it for years.By Debbie Anderson from North Salt Lake, UT 84054 on February 9, 2012
I lighten my hair from light brown to light golden blonde using 20 volume peroxide mixed 1 to 1. Mix 60 of 20 volume peroxide and 60 of color in the bowl with the dispenser on the bottom. You could cut it down by 10 on the peroxide if you are not trying to lift as much. Hope this helps.By Amy from Houston, Texas on February 9, 2012
You use it 1:1I use three different top chic Goldwell colors but they add up to the same amount of product to the same amount of developer
By Claire Law from Charleston, SC on February 9, 2012
I put twice the amount of developer lotion as color. It results in hair with a rich color.By Teresa from Barto, PA on February 9, 2012
I follow the goldwell instructions. One part developer (2 oz.) with one part color (2 oz.). The tubes are 2.1 ounce so I never use the whole tube. I have shoulder length hair and that is enough color. If you have long hair, then I would double the amount of color (2 tubes) and double the developer (4 oz). According to Goldwell internet site, I learned to keep it in equal amounts. It has worked for me.By Sheila from Fayetteville, North Carolina on February 9, 2012
You need to add enough developer to make the mixture roughly the consistency of whipped cream. This is approximately twice the amount of color.By susy from ny on February 9, 2012
a salon stylist was kind enough to write down amounts for me, and it included equal parts developer and color. This has worked well for me for the past 3 years.By Ariella from Portland, OR on February 10, 2012
This depends on the brand of the color you are using. Each color will have its own specific requirements. If you are mixing this with Goldwell color which is what is recommended you have to mix equal parts. 1 part color and 1 part developer. Basically that means you have to put in as much developer as you are putting in color. The directions for how much developer you should use is on the back of the tube for Goldwell colors. I cant speak for other brands. Each brand and each color has different requirements so you have to be careful. This is something that is specific to the color and has nothing to do with the developer at all.By Margot from New Haven, CT on September 9, 2012
By Katharine from Canonsburg, PA on September 9, 2012
The concentrations for each developer are different and combing the different strength developers will NOT average together. You will get much more controlled and predictable results using the appropriate single strength developer than if you mix multiple strength developers.By Marcella from Dexter, MI on September 9, 2012
Yes. Mixing the 3% solution with 9% solution will result in a 6% solution. Your idea to purchase 30 volume developer and mix with equal parts of your 10 volume developer does work.By JennK from Rockville, Md on September 9, 2012
I mix them all the time, it should work fine. You should probably just mix it on a case by case basis (half from one, half from the other, mix it in with your color). That way you can see if it turns out in a similar color to whatyou were expecting too before you are stuck with maybe wanting to buy something else to mix it in to achieve that.
By Judith from Nanuet, New York on September 9, 2012
do not know if it would or would not work. I use the 20 volume. Why not wait until you finish one bottle?By marilyn from New york on September 9, 2012
I wouldn't mix the volumes. Just use the proper volume for the color you are mixing or you willRisk an unequal mix. I have tried to alter the developer lotions myself and got bad results.
By Nicole from Australia on September 9, 2012
I think this best option is to alternate the developers. Use the 10 vol developer and then the next time a 20 vol developer. This gives a more natural look.By Joyce from Brandon, Fl on September 9, 2012
yes this will work if both developers are the same --meaning both Goldwell. 10 volume is a lay in developer meaning -- just lays in the color will not lift. 20 volume will lift just a little and 30 will lift more. So equal parts will work. I've had my shop a little too cold and had to use a little more 30 volume in the mix to get the right results.By Qian from Seattle on September 10, 2012
I don't think it is just a simple math question that you can average out to 20 volume.You should definitely ask a professional. Dont try something uncertain that might damage your hair.
Good luck.

Albuquerque was once a convenient but drab gateway to the far more chic environs of Santa Fe and Taos, rating only a few harmonizes with a Southwestern charm that's not overpriced or precious, Albuquerque just might win your heart.
where to stay
La Posada de Albuquerque 125 Second St. N.W.; 800/777-5732 or 505/242-9090, fax 505/242-8664; doubles from $99. Conrad Hilton was so proud of his first hotel in his native New Mexico that he honeymooned here with Zsa Zsa Gabor in 1941. The two-story lobby has been restored to its original glamour, and it's a stunner, with Western murals, tinwork light fixtures, carved ceiling beams, Navajo art, and a bubbling tiled fountain. The rooms could stand another infusion of cash, but they have a nice, old-fashioned spareness. A historical note: Thomas O. Jones, a security chief for the Manhattan Project—responsible for evacuating the area if the Trinity Experiment were to go awry—watched the atomic flash rise off the Tularosa Basin from his fourth-floor room.
Yours Truly 160 Paseo de Corrales, Corrales; 800/942-7890 or 505/898-7027, fax 505/898-9022; doubles from $98. Strictly speaking, you aren't away from it all. Modern adobe-style houses dot the hills surrounding this polished B&B in rustic, artsy Corrales, about 15 minutes from Old Town. But the views of the Sandia Mountains are expansive, and you may even spot a coyote or roadrunner from the patio. The innkeepers have their own hot-air balloon, and offer guests a modest price break on this diversion.
Hacienda Antigua 6708 Tierra Dr. N.W.; 800/201-2986 or 505/345-5399, fax 505/345-3855; doubles from $105. When the king of Spain's emissary Don Pablo Yrisarri settled along El Camino Real 200 years ago, he built his hacienda with 20- to 30-inch-thick adobe walls, and imposing zaguan (entryway) gates and massive vigas (roof beams) cut from the forests of the Sandias. Today, it's Albuquerque's most lyrical bed-and-breakfast, warmed by the sun (thanks to discreetly placed skylights) and filled with folk art and antiques, including a two-person claw-foot tub said to have once graced a brothel in El Paso. Trains rumble past occasionally on the tracks nearby, but quiet is soon restored, and you can savor the rustle of the cottonwoods and the fragrances of the high-desert garden.
Sarabande 5637 Rio Grande Blvd. N.W.; 888/506-4923 or 505/345-4923, fax 505/345-9130; doubles from $99. The sweet Sarabande rose does in fact grow outside this romantic inn set in the rural but well-groomed North Valley. The serenity of the place is probably best appreciated from the Rose Room, with its Japanese soaking tub and patio shaded by a wisteria-covered arbor.
Casa del Granjero 414 C de Baca Lane N.W.; 800/701-4144 or 505/897-4144, fax 505/897-9788; doubles from $79. Its name means "the farmer's house," and you'll find it at the end of a dirt road in the North Valley. But there's nothing hayseedish about this historic adobe hacienda, so lavishly decorated that you expect to see a señorita rustling down the hall in a lace gown and mantilla.
Cinnamon Morning 2700 Rio Grande Blvd. N.W.; 800/214-9481 or 505/345-3541, fax 505/342-2283; doubles from $75. This stretch of Rio Grande Boulevard is a busy thoroughfare, but Sue Percilick's taste is so sharp (note the wonderful furniture made by her husband, Dick), that the traffic sounds soon fade from your radar. There's a lovely courtyard for enjoying breakfast or an afternoon sangria.
Brittania & W. E. Mauger Estate 701 Roma Ave. N.W.; 800/719-9189 or 505/242-8755, fax 505/842-8835; doubles from $79. Immaculately renovated and crisply run, this B&B located between Old Town and downtown has become a favorite of business travelers seeking refuge from impersonal hotel chains. The rooms are sunny and comfortable, and the Victorian theme is blessedly understated.
getting situated
Ask any Albuquerquean for directions, and you'll probably be told to drive either toward or away from the mountains. The granite and limestone Sandias, along this valley city's eastern border, form one of Albuquerque's three dramatic natural landmarks. The others are to the west: the Rio Grande; and beyond the city's sprawl, the West Mesa, with its crown of five extinct volcanoes. Duke City (the nickname comes from the city's 18th-century namesake, the Duke of Alburquerque—the first r was later dropped) was once a major hub for travelers by road, rail, and air, and a lot of people still pass through. Much to commuters' chagrin, the city is smack at the junction of I-25 and I-40.
You can reach most of the downtown area via Central Avenue, which is both the city's main street and a portion of historic Route 66. Old Town is Albuquerque's foremost tourist attraction, a tree-shaded, shop-filled plaza where Spanish settlers first set up housekeeping in 1706. Nob Hill takes up about 15 blocks of Central Avenue east of the University of New Mexico campus, and is home to the city's most stylish shops.
a room with a vibe
Quaint, it ain't. But that's the whole idea when you run a bed-and-breakfast tribute to jazz—you wouldn't want the Duke Ellington Suite to be frilly.
The theme for the offbeat Jazz Inn Bed & Breakfast came naturally to Sophia Peron: she's a passionate fan who once owned a jazz club in town. And while the Duke City may not spring to mind as one of the jazz capitals of the world, Peron is quick to offer up a few examples of what she says is a rich jazz heritage. "John Lewis from the Modern Jazz Quartet grew up here," she says. "Ben Webster was here in the thirties."
The 100-year-old house Peron picked for her B&B had the right vibes, too. "It was a cool place," she says of the earth-brown stuccoed building, in a historic neighborhood between Downtown and Nob Hill. "There had always been neat people coming and going here, and there had been some good parties." Okay, so it needed a gut rehab, but Peron, a longtime city resident and community activist, had a Rolodex of people willing to help out. The nice-looking guy across the street pitched in, too, and she wound up marrying him. Nicholas Peron, an Albuquerque native and artist—he made the sculptures in the cactus garden—brought to the partnership a collection of 5,000 jazz recordings (now touted as one of the inn's amenities), an encyclopedic knowledge of the subject, and an aesthetic yin to Sophia's yang. "He's more modern jazz, and I'm more traditional," she explains. "But we both like to hang out with musicians and nurture them and promote them."

This week, Ed muses on the indisputable artistic qualities of games, but where to free-to-play titles fit in?
Posted by Ed Prosser
Once upon a time, gamers could get old games for free as publishers set them loose into the wild. Where does the free game live now? Where does it thrive?
Blizzard's attempt to create a fun card game is nearing its release, having just entered closed-beta. Ed brings us some news as to how the game is progressing.
As the free-to-play model gains popularity and success, will the big budgets ever swing their way?
The freebies are here, and Ed deliveres two addicting mobile gems.
Ed's hopping on the Kickstarter train with a small bit about Steam.
The latest in consoles are coming, but the tried-and-true free-to-play model continues to evolve to match.
This week's FreePlay brings good news indeed! No longer the sole purveyance of the PC gamer, the freebies are coming soon to a console near you.
The browser game is anything but dead, and Ed's got the scoop.
Ed waxes philosophically on the merits of a good mobile game and how far we've come. Of course, being free is a top pick!

Hi Nev This one could be several crypts. Black mystic comes to mind first or one its offspring hybrids like 'Absolute Zero', Ice age, Sweet tooth. Growing conditions can change these plants as you know. HDD |

I came across an interesting discussion board over the weekend where a guy is working on creating a book detailing the cons of the Paleo Diet. I've never been a person who follows trends, diets, workout routines or any sort of fad so I hadn't really thought about if there were any cons. The only ones I had seen mentioned previously were the caution about being grumpy the first couple weeks of the diet as your body weans itself off of the carbs and opiates in grain.
As I was reading the discussion thread what occurred to me is that some people will take anything to the extreme. It's as if you tell them a little bit of something is a good thing and they automatically jump to the assumption that if a little bit is a good thing then a lot must be better. I'm not quite sure how that logic works. If a little bit of taxes are a good thing then a lot of taxes must be better. If a few bee stings can stimulate your immune system then walking into a bee hive must be better. If a few days a week of heavy weights is good for you then 24/7 weightlifting must be better. If a little bit of wine is good for your stomach then drinking until you have alcohol poisoning must be better.
The main thread of the discussion was people who had taken the low carb aspect of Paleo to the extreme. In my reading on the Paleo Diet, I've seen it mentioned multiple places that if your main goal of going Paleo is weight loss, you should avoid fruits. Most people who are doing Paleo also avoid potatoes. I still haven't seen a really stellar reason to avoid potatoes but it seems it's to avoid carbs. These people who have tried the Paleo lifestyle and have issues seem to have gone to the extreme of carb avoidance.
I saw mention in the thread that they had ended up in a Ketogenic diet and from the reference I assumed "that must be bad". I've done some research on the Ketogenic diet and it's actually not that bad. Reading up on it on Wikipedia I found it's used to treat seizures in people who have epilepsy. It's especially effective with children who have epilepsy but can also be used to treat adults. Even in the Ketogenic diet, a registered dietician is used to maintain a certain level of carbs. In extreme cases, with additional health problems, a Ketogenic diet can cause acidosis, coma and death. That only occurs if you have a disorder where you are unable to metabolize fatty acids.
Another thing I found interesting about the Ketogenic diet is it can be used to treat cancer, astrocytomas, Autism, depression, migraine headaches, polycystic ovary syndrome and type 2 diabetes. The reason I found that interesting is because those are some of the same diseases/health issues that Dr. Cordain has claimed the Paleo Diet will help counteract.
So, I guess the take away from all of this is that if you take the Paleo Diet to an extreme, you may experience health problems. I have not seen anyone, on any website; suggest that you should go to such an extreme. If your goal is weight loss and you want to speed that process along, you should avoid carbs. Not cut carbs out of your life forevermore and never eat another thing with carbs. Just avoid carbs. If you're doing heavy exercise while on the Paleo Diet there is a modified version I haven't looked into yet. Loren Cordain has written a whole book on the topic.
I personally have not cut carbs out. I eat as much fruit as I want. I typically eat two or three pieces of fruit per day. I have not cut potatoes out of my diet either. I occasionally have some mashed potatoes with nothing on them. I also occasionally eat some hash browns with my eggs. I've also found eating a banana right after my workout helps me not feel quite so drained.
Hopefully, anyone who tries the Paleo Diet will use a little bit of brains while trying it. Don't deprive your body of essential nutrition. In addition, every version of the diet I've seen allows a certain percentage of "cheat days". Loren Cordain recommends an 85/15 split and Mark Sisson recommends an 80/20 split. A person must ALWAYS listen to their body. If you start having health issue you've never had before, it's a good idea to do something different. Don't just assume being constipated for a week is "normal".
Take care!

Just a reminder that the USF Spring Plant Festival is this Saturday and Sunday. A friend has asked me to go with her for her first visit there. Anyone else planning to go? |

I'll be there around 9, waiting in line with friends. Lori |
Hi Lori. We will be there at about 10am. I will look out for you although I have no idea how I would recognize you! I will probably be wearing a bright blue tee with a tropical design on it and denim bermuda shorts. Please say "hi" if you see us. |
How was it? We are planning on going Sunday - looking for some small semi-shade plants for our front yard/sidewalk area. Didn't really think about looking for them there or we would have gone today. Will try to be there at 10. Usually buy my butterfly plants there - I will have to keep telling myself -"NO more butterfly plants!" I have no more room! Unless I can convince my hubs to put them in the new area- actually looking for dwarf powderpuff and maybe some Weigela or maye some Variegated Gingers. |
It was BUSY! Plants were being shipped out by the carload by 10.30am! There was a good selection and I am sure they will have restocked for today! Nice atmosphere. My friend bought about 40 plants. |
Tina and I stopped by on the way back from Silvia's party yesterday. We didn't get there until about 4:00 P.M. but they still had quite a selection, pretty darn hot though and as sunny as it is today I'd be living in the shade.... Tom |
We did go and it was hard to know if they were well stocked or not. The one place I always hit is the one with all the flowering plants - Color----something. They had lots of empty bench area so I am thinking they sold out of alot. I didn't go for that anyways so onward we went. Ended up buying some different things - a Dwarf Bottlebrush, a Dwarf Tibouchina, and a Dwarf Jasmine. All are to go in the area we are relandscaping. Also bought 2 Rosemary plants that will also go out in the same area. We still need lots more - a big area to fill. |
Colorfield Farms! I think my friend was responsible for emptying some of those benches! |
- Posted by crueltyfre Tampa 9a heat 10 s (My Page) on Mon, Apr 16, 12 at 9:31
I ran into Veronica there, but that's the only GWer I saw. I got a lot, but was quite annoyed that Colorfield had raised it prices in the two weeks since Tropiflora, no more buy 5 get one free. They are now officially higher $ than Lowe's! As I stood in line I passed out flyers about the Tampa swap next week...so hopefully some people bought lots of new stuff and need to get rid of lots of old stuff, lol. Lori |
They were 6 for $30 yesterday, I think or $6 a piece. I didn't get anything there but looked for an Agastache (for a friend) that I had bought a couple years ago. Saw a similiar one but it had little fragrance so I didn't get it. Their plants needed watering and probably looked better Saturday. I have to admit that I have always gotten quality plants from them and have had some in my garden for at least 3 years now. |
Yes, we paid $30 for 6 plants, or $6 each on Saturday. I thought that was the same price as last year. |
- Posted by thonotorose FL 9 (My Page) on Tue, Apr 17, 12 at 12:39
I really enjoyed it and felt that it was VERY busy! So glad for the vendors. Found a purple Blue-eyed grass! Who knew! Also got a creamy white/green croton called Lucious(?). Went specifically to get my little green/white Thai caladiums, two more pots. A black sapote... Since papayas are no longer dead to me, I thought I could give this one the same treatment. Large pot wheeled into the makeshift green house for the winter. Love the gal that has the own root roses for just $6, though I now have bought all her varieties. Did get Marie d'Orleans. It was great to see Lori, too. Veronica |
Lori forgot that she saw me...long enough to stick a flyer in my bag. I do admit that I rarely make it to the forum these days but some of you know me. I was helping at the succulent society booth and they were selling the heck out of dessert roses. People were buying a lot of stuff. Hope to get over to Lori's swap...c-ya. |

Casco Bay Students Learn All About Bicycles
Casco Bay High School (CBHS) runs one-week elective courses called "Intensives" twice a year. "The Bike Intensive" was a new offering in January.
Twenty CBHS students learned about bike mechanics by repairing bicycles to donate to needy children with the help of local bike mechanics. In addition, students learned about bike culture by engaging with experts on topics such as urban planning, bike touring in Europe and bike safety.
By week's end, all participants had mastered the basics of bike maintenance. They also had either analyzed Allen Avenue (the street in front of the school) for its "bike-ability," or they had learned the basics of bike safety education.
Many community partners helped with the intensive: Bicycle Coalition of Maine, Safe Routes to School program, PACTS, Portland Department of Public Services, Westbrook Alternative Learning, Allspeed Cyclery & Snow and Go Maine.

Why can't my defrag get past 1%?
I have been trying to successfully defragment my hard drive for quite some time. When the defragger begins, it keeps going from 0% to 1% -- and then back to 0%. It has never gotten past 1%! Is this normal? I have a Hewlett Packard computer that is running Windows 98.
It is hard to determine the exact issue you are having with your defragger. Here are some things you should investigate:

- Are any applications running while you defrag? They could be locking files the defragger is trying to access.
- Run scandisk to check your file system integrity. This shouldn't be an issue, but let's make sure.

291 Sir William Glasgow, High Commissioner in Canada, to Mr A. W. Fadden, Acting Prime Minister
Cablegram 160 OTTAWA, 12 February 1941, 4.19 p.m.
I recently suggested to the Minister of National Defence [1] desirability of closer liaison between Canada and Australia in the exchange of information regarding military dispositions in the Pacific area. I suggest that this exchange of information should be as complete as possible and should take place between corresponding branches of services of the two countries. Contact between Canada or Canadian Air Force and Australian Air Force might be made through Australian Air Liaison Officer, Ottawa [2];
between Royal Canadian Navy and Royal Australian Navy through Australian Naval Attache, Washington [3]; between General Staffs by diplomatic bag between Ottawa and Canberra.
I understand that the Minister has placed the suggestion informally before his colleagues who have indicated approval in principle.
I thought in addition to its value to the staffs of the three services in Canada and Australia it might lead to closer liaison between them in co-ordination of defence plans in the Pacific area.
I put forward this proposal as a purely personal one and would like to have your views before taking any further steps. I shall discuss this matter with the Prime Minister [4] if he comes to North America.

Remote Desktop not listing drives nor printers
Hi! Never posted here before and I hope I can get some help.
I started using Windows 7 and I am getting some strange behaviour on my Remote Desktop. After starting up RD for the first time, I noticed that all my drives on the local computer were accessible on the remote computer. At some point, the drive letters stopped appearing. Also, I installed an HP laser printer and after installation, the printer could be accessed via the remote computer. For some strange reason, that stopped as well. Can any one tell me how to resurrect my drives and printer on my remote machine? Thanks, David |
My System Specs |
25 Jan 2010 | #2 |
So you are connecting to a computer that is Running Windows 7 Pro or higher correct?
according to what i am seeing now becuase i am using remote desktop is that you activate everything in the local devices and resources under the Local rsources Tab, and then you click on MORE. then that will show your printer and everything on the host comptuer is that correct. |
My System Specs |
26 Jan 2010 | #3 |
Did you check the properties of the RDP connection?
Before Clicking on Connect look into the options and select the local resources. Here you can try to connect your local drives, printers, sound etc to the session. Keep in mind that depending on the user rights and terminal server policies on the destionation server (might be a terminal server) this can be disabled. |

For clarification, I am running Remote Desktop from a Windows 7 computer and then accessing an XP computer at the remote location. The Remote Desktop is working so I am able to access and use the remote computer. However:
1) The remote XP computer can not access the disk drives of the local W7 computer. This did work when I first started using the W7 computer and then for some strange unknown reason, I stopped having access to the local disk drives from the remote location. This just stopped all of a sudden. Yes, all the Options are set correctly to access the local disk drives. I have turned the Options off/on and rebooted to no avail. 2) The remote computer does not recognize the printer on the local machine. This is a great feature that I use extensively. I installed a new HP laserjet printer and the printer was available from the remote computer. Then, again without any explanation, the printer stopped being accessible from the remote computer. Yes, the Options are set to access the printers from the remote computer and I have turned them off/on and rebooted to no avail. Any suggestions are welcomed - I am very frustrated by this and I have no idea what is going on. Thanks, David |

1 assuming you mean you cannot connect to the Windows 7 drives from within the RDP session on the XP machine. And you expanded all of the trees in your explorer window (obviously , because u used it before)
- Did this behavior change after a security patch has been installed? |
My System Specs |
26 Jan 2010 | #6 |
I do not know if there were any security patches added. I did not add any manually myself.
My System Specs |
26 Jan 2010 | #7 |
Security Patches from microsoft update are loaded if you sethis to automatic.
For XP did not find any generic policies inhibiting this behavior. assuming you know the way in RDP during a session. Within windows explorer My NEtwork Places +Entire Network +Microsoft Terminal Service +tsclient +\tsclient\c Is the Remote XP a domain member (are policies enforced from the domain)? |

My apologies - I'm not clear on what you are asking.
Some clarification - the remote computer is an XP computer. I can run remote desktop from 2 other XP computers that I own and from those I am able to access the local drives and printers. However, when I run remote desktop from my Windows7 computer and remotely access the same XP computer, I can not see via the remote computer the drives and printer connected to the local computer. Quest21 - I do not know where to find the Microsoft Terminal Service on my W7 computer. I searched, but was unable to locate this path. Can you help me out? |
My System Specs |
27 Jan 2010 | #9 |
Would you be needing to check if in your RDP prompt you have the Printers ticked, Click on the "More.." button for drives.
My System Specs |
27 Jan 2010 | #10 |
Yes - the RDC settings for both the Printers and the Drives are set. As mentioned above, everything was working ok (i.e., I was able to access the local printers and drives from the remote computer) and then all of a sudden I was not able to see the printers or drives from the remote computer. I have no idea what changed.
For example, after I installed the printer software, I was able to access this local printer from the remote printer and printed successfully. I was happy! Then, for some strange reason, the local printer was not apparent from the remote computer. I am trying to find a way to make this work again. No idea what changed and hopefully someone in this forum can give me some assistance. Thanks, David |

I have the good fortune of living more than one life at a time! I am a classically trained pianist, although my passion lies with the jazz standards. I teach music in my home studio and perform at private clubs and functions.
I am married to a farmer, and while we couldn't be from more opposite worlds, we've managed 35 years together! During the summer months when I am not teaching, I head out to the farm. During harvest I operate the combine and haul grain. It's tough to cook when you're out of the kitchen for most of the day. That's why I love all the recipes and tips on this site. It makes cooking on the run a whole lot easier.
Along with the standard appliances, both of my kitchens have a crock pot, food processor and programmable microwave which cuts down on the amount of time I need to spend on food prep. Whether I've spent several hours with music students or a day out in the field, with a bit of advance planning, supper can be ready when I'm done for the day.

Small Fish Can Mean Big Nutrition
KEY FACTS | Project
Linking Fisheries and Nutrition: Promoting Innovative Fish Production Technologies in Ponds and Wetlands with Nutrient-dense Small Fish Species in Bangladesh
Project leader
Benoy Kumar Barman
1 Oct 2010
31 May 2013
Malnutrition levels in Bangladesh are amongst the highest in the world. Approximately half of Bangladesh's population lives below the food poverty line and the dietary intake of both adults and children are severely deficient in key vitamins and minerals. It is now understood that women and children are the more food-insecure and micronutrient-deficient in the population.
Download project flyer (pdf 159KB).
Download project flyer (pdf 159KB).
This project, supported by the International Fund for Agricultural Development, aims to increase household income in poor, rural households in Bangladesh, and improve nutrition, especially in women and children, through increased intake of nutrient-rich small fish.
This project promotes innovative new technologies designed to increase the production of small nutrient-rich fish species in two separate and environmentally distinct agricultural areas. The project targets approximately 1,500 households with small fish ponds in the northwest districts of Rangpur and Dinajpur, and approximately 500 households in the northeast district of Sunamganj, an area dominated by wetlands and an open water capture fishery.
Mola for monga
The northwest is an area with a high incidence of poverty, and with large numbers of people suffering as a result of seasonal food insecurity ('monga') and malnutrition. Small fish ponds are an important source of water for livestock and domestic purposes and most are also used for traditional, low productivity fish culture (<1.0 t/ha). Using recently developed technologies the opportunity exists to increase fish productivity to >3 t/ha and significantly increase household incomes. Equally important is the opportunity to improve household nutrition, particularly for women and children, by adding micronutrient rich small fish to these fish culture systems. This program will culture small, nutrient-dense fish, particularly Mola (Amblypharyngodon mola) in highly efficient low-risk polyculture systems that include a variety of high value fish including carp and freshwater prawn.
Mola is rich in iron, zinc, calcium and preformed vitamin A as retinol. It is readily available for pond stocking, is highly desired by households and commands a good market price. New pond management techniques are being introduced, such as increasing pond depth to conserve broodfish, which will benefit householders and reduce the problems usually encountered due to broodstock transportation.
Hoars and beels
In the northeast (the Sunamganj District), the 'small fish and nutrition project' is working in an area with many hoars and beels (wetland ecosystems). Much of this area, with almost 500,000 ha of seasonally flooded wetlands, is underwater for 4-7 months per year. It is one of the most disaster prone and food insecure parts of the country. Here, 500 households will be involved in the wetland portion of the program which focuses on management practices that will increase small fish production through the stocking of broodfish of mola in ditches, application of best management practices such as sanctuaries, closed fishing seasons, regulation of gear and market linkages. Again the emphasis is on technologies to increase the productivity of the nutrient dense, small fish species.
A consumption survey will be conducted with the program households. This will include baseline (pre-intervention), and end line (post project) information on the food consumption of one woman (child-bearing age) and one child (preferably under two years of age) per household. This survey, the first of its kind, will seek to capture species level consumption information as well as seasonal trends in fish consumption related to micronutrient nutrition.
Education starts at home
As part of this project, the households members involved in small fish production will be trained on methods to effectively use small fish (processing, cooking and techniques useful to children) . Nutrition education will include the importance of a complete diet comprised of small fish and vegetables produced by the households in homestead areas.

The seat is so comfortable I could sit on it for hours together. Can store a lot of stuff in the drawer, too. - Janet
I couldn't believe it [...] very easy to put together.... - Judy
Some of the screw "covers" did not fit, so we left them off. It keeps my clothes off the floor and helps me stay organized. - Retired Educator
It was a christmas gift. This will work great to help keep all the clothes off the floor and in order.I have nothing but good comments about this product. i do plan to vist this site again for other items. - DJ
We never figured out how to attach the cushion to the chair frame. It came with screws and the picture showed the screws going from the frame into the cushion but there were no holes in the bottom of the cushion. Right now the cushion is just resting on the otherwise wonderful chair. Any ideas please? - Jodie
[...] - jackie
My husband loves it. He now has a place to put his clothes for the next day that keeps them looking wrinkle free - #1 wife
I come from a family of professional cabinet designers/builders. This product is well made for the price. The only part we changed was to remove the pant rack as it made the chair stick out too far from the wall - a personal decision. Otherwise, a great choice! - Terri, Jim's wife
This valet chair is perfect for my husband to sit and put on his socks & shoes. He hangs his pants and shirts on the valet each evening. The drawer on the chair is great for storing items. It is nice that you are offering a $20 gift certificate for this review, but would make the same positive comments without this offer!! - Snow White
Only problem was where to place it in our room - Vicki wife of Major General
Have been needing a new valet chair for some years and finally found the perfect replacement for my 30 year old piece. - Wintalldude
The foam or gel in seat could be firmer you sit on a hard surface when you use this chair. - Dad
great for uniforms!! - Nana
Now my husband doesn't have to climb on a high bed to put his shoes on! - Suz
Looks great in our bedroom, - Sonny
Service was great, fast shipping, I am still waitig for a large screw it needs may need to go to the hardward store but I would not send it back for that. I did put one in that does not fit but holds it for now. Easy to put together. - faithchris2
It requires more various tools than many people have and more than one person to assemble. My piece lacked a fastener hole which had to be carefully and preciously drilled which was frustrating. - Robert

By nature, the curved, concrete, fly-away world of skateboarding simply flips off the literary world. It's tough to imagine, after all, how a seat-of-your-pants extreme sport embraced predominantly by fourteen-year-old males and few tough, old hardcore adults in baggy shorts might have anything to do with the written word. Or as skateboarder Jared Jacang Maher (an occasional contributor to these pages) notes, "The idea that they might be able to write, or even read, is surprising." Maybe so. But Maher, along with longtime buddy Jeff Knutson and Brooklynite Justin Hocking -- all skateboarders and schooled creative writers with Colorado ties -- just looked at the dilemma and took a 360 Flip right around it. The trio teamed up in an effort to accomplish two things: prove that at least some skateboarders are literate and do something to encourage the ones who aren't to maybe pick up a book. The result is Life and Limb: Skateboarders Write from the Deep End, a newly published paperback anthology from Soft Skull Press of writings propelled by the high energy of skateboard culture, if not always by the sport itself. The three editor/contributors will introduce their book, which includes work from the known -- such as Thrasher Skateboard Magazine journalist Michael Burnett, and Jocko Weyland, author of The Answer Is Never: A Skateboarder's History of the World -- and the unknown, tonight at 7:30 p.m. at the Tattered Cover LoDo.
But if you go, don't expect to hear one skateboarding cliche after another. "A lot of the stories don't even mention skateboarding," Maher says. "We didn't want a bunch of stories about feeling the concrete move under your feet." Rather, Hocking explains, "These writers take the inventiveness of the board and translate it into prose. Skateboarders think in unconventional ways, and that comes out even in the pieces that are not about skating." The book, they agree, is more of a brave new world of writing on the edge: "It's a different view from that of mainstream America," Maher says. "For instance, you might see a storefront and think 'Starbucks,' but skateboarders just see the lay of it, the rails and the ramps. They're thinking about how many tricks they can do before they're chased off."
The Tattered Cover is at 1628 16th Street; call 303-436-1070. An after party with live music and a film screening follows at 9 p.m. at Andenken Gallery, 2110 Market Street, 303-292-3281. -- Susan Froyd
Buffalo Exchange founders shift into retro-drive
People who bring clothes to trade or sell at a Buffalo Exchange clothing store often leave with questions. For example, "Why did they take those huge sunglasses and not my barely worn jean jacket?" Or, "How did that sales associate know layering a bright-green running jacket over her rainbow tank top would look cool?" Coloradans interested in mastering the shop's cutting-edge sense of style can pose fashion inquiries in person this week when Buffalo founders Kerstin and Spencer Block -- who are driving a retro trailer to the 23 Buffalo Exchange stores and six franchises nationwide in honor of the company's thirtieth birthday -- roll into Denver. Along with their innate knowledge of what is hot, the Blocks will offer such giveaways as Buffalo Exchange T-shirts, bags and discount keycards.
Each locale will add a unique flavor to the freebie extravaganza. Today's stop, the Denver store at 230 East 13th Avenue, will be decked out with a Gilligan's Island motif. For tomorrow's Boulder celebration, the shop located at 1717 Walnut Street will take on an '80s prom theme. Both stores will have cake and DJs.
Kerstin Block offers a sneak peek at the Buffalo Exchange's chic formula, explaining that the secret is "a lot of unusual items, small boutique items in combination with vintage clothing, and then our bread and butter, which is mall-type brands." Who'd have guessed that the key to the funk dynasty's success could start with Abercrombie and end with Fitch?
The celebrations last from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information, call the Denver store, 303-866-0165; the Boulder store, 303-928-1924; or visit www.buffaloexchange.com. -- Caitlin Smith
The Good Teese
If the walls at the Diamond Cabaret, 1222 Glenarm Place, could talk, they would probably sound a lot like a hungover fraternity brother expounding for the pledges, at great length, on all he's experienced. In their thirteen-year history, the strip palace's partitions have seen enough excitement to fill volumes. Tonight, though, those walls are bound to be tongue-tied when Dita Von Teese, the vixen helping to revive burlesque, bares A Night of Seduction, the kickoff to the Diamond's birthday week. Fresh from an appearance at Playboy's fiftieth anniversary party in L.A., Von Teese will be on stage at the Diamond cavorting in a giant martini glass -- a tribute to such tantalizing pioneers as Lily St. Cyr and Betty Page. Before that performance, she'll host a five-course dinner, with each dish highlighting such features of burlesque acts as "tease," "grand entrance" and a "flash of sequins and bare skin."
"Dita is the biggest of what she does in the world," says the Diamond's Mani Isler. "She's never played a club like the Diamond. Her coming here is like going back to the roots of burlesque, but in an exciting, upscale way."

Four hundred middle and high school students descended on Virginia State University for a daylong high energy robotics contest that tested their teamwork and ingenuity. The FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) South Central Qualifier was the last of seven regional events across Virginia.
Top performing teams advanced to the Virginia State FTC Championship.
"Thanks to VSU, the FIRST Tech Challenge South Central event was incredible and enjoyed by teams from all over Virginia," said Carol Edelman, VirginiaFIRST Director, Program Development and Outreach. "It's a pleasure to partner with organizations who share our commitment to inspiring the next generation of scientists and engineers."
Forty teams from around the region competed at VSU's Daniel Gymnasium and 10 top-performing teams qualified for the state championship. The 10 advancing teams were from Dinwiddie Public Schools, Henrico H.S., Glen Allen H.S., Warwick H.S., St. Gertrude H.S., and Western Albemarle H.S. In addition, four teams from Battlefield H.S. in Prince William County qualified at VSU for the state championship.
Teams designed and built their robots last fall. This year, they competed in a contest called "Ring it Up!" which challenged their remote controlled robots to gather and hang plastic rings on a multi-level rack.
Students who participate in FIRST programs are not just having fun; team members in high school also qualify to be considered for more than $16 million in college scholarships.
The VSU event was coordinated by the University's Service-Learning & Civic Engagement Program. More than 140 VSU students volunteered at the event and VSU faculty members Dr. Jacqueline Burleson, Dr. Hui Chen, Dr. Ju Wang and Dr. Zhenhua Wu served as judges.
FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) is an international organization with the ambitious mission of transforming modern culture by celebrating science and technology and encouraging more students to be interested in pursuing Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education.
