This week, the red carpets have been trod by a haute flurry of fashionable females. But a handsomely clad group of guys has also been on the scene.
Chris Hemsworth: The actor-stud showed up to the 'Thor: The Dark World' world premiere at Odeon Leicester Square in London on Tuesday. He paired his steely, baby blues with a richly hued, dark eggplant Dolce & Gabbana three-piece suit that certainly caught my eye.
Jared Leto: Taking a slightly more conservative turn, the entertainer was polished in an all-black Saint Laurent by Hedi Slimane ensemble at the 17th annual Hollywood Film Awards at The Beverly Hilton Hotel in California on Monday. His unbuttoned, tie-less shirt and the flash of his silk, sky-blue pocket square added the touch of attitude we've come to expect from Jared.
Idris Elba: Joining Chris at 'Thor: The Dark World' world premiere, Idris rocked the Burberry threads with one of the brand's slim-fit cashmere coats taking top billing. Statement loafers finished out his casual-cool look.

It Takes All Kinds of Churches
When I was a kid, my church friends were critical of other churches. The "other" churches were too weird, too charismatic, too legalistic, too boring, or too stuffy.
Sadly today, many Christians are convinced their style of church is the only and best way.
It takes all kinds of Christian churches to reach all kinds of people.
Surely God can work through Bible Churches, Charismatic Churches, Traditional Churches, and Seeker Churches. He can use Baptist Christians, Methodist Christians, Episcopal Christians, and Spirit-filled tongue talking Holy Ghost rollin' Christians.
No matter how much you enjoy your expression of worship, your church won't reach the world alone.
It is exciting that instead of criticizing the differences, many are embracing the similarities and truly making a difference for Christ.

Document Type Master's Dissertation Author Mhlongo, Asser Ramogoe URN etd-03022009-092814 Document Title The effectiveness of the implementation and monitoring of education policies in schools Degree MEd Department Education Management and Policy Studies Supervisor
Advisor Name Title Mr J W van Rooyen Supervisor Keywords
- authoritative roles
- effective policy implementation and monitoring
- education policies
Date 2009-04-21 Availability unrestricted Abstract Effective implementation and monitoring of education policies in schools impact directly on the quality of education in public schools in general and on the vision and mission of the North West provincial department of education in particular, where the research was conducted. The effectiveness of the implementation and monitoring of education policies in schools are investigated by analysing data collected in through questionnaires and interviews conducted on the study in the Moretele Area Project Office (APO) of the Bojanala Region of Education in the North West Province.
The study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of the implementation and monitoring of educational policies by educators, Principals and District Officials in schools. The study focused on their understanding of the concept policy and its purpose, since policies serve different purposes and are constructed for different reasons.
It has immerged from the study that much still has to be done in order to improve on effective policy implementation and monitoring in schools. Educators have shown that they are aware of the concept policy and its purpose. There are, however, challenges identified in terms of implementing these policies and also ineffective communication by the district offices and the schools. This assertion is evidenced by the findings from the questionnaires that revealed a serious communication problem between districts and schools.
It was also found that educators are aware of the different authoritative roles held by policies in education system. They were able to give examples of policy documents that have national authority, provincial authority, and district and school authority. What seems to be still lacking is the effective application of the theoretical knowledge gained on policies when executing their duties.

Pompano, Fla.-based TITAN Salvage, a Crowley Maritime Corp. company, has appointed Dan Dolson to the senior management team as operations manager for the Americas.
In this new role, TITAN says, Dolson now has responsibility for the operations and profitability of TITAN's U.S. office and depot in Pompano, Fla. He will relocate to Florida from Bellevue, Wash., and report to TITAN vice president Richard Habib.
Dolson has more than 15 years of experience in the marine and salvage industry. He was the founder and president of the Seattle Diving Co., and since 2003 grew the company from a local dive outfit to a modest subsea construction company working in the Pacific Northwest, Gulf of Mexico and in other international waters.
Prior to owning his company, he had an eight-year career with Crowley working aboard tugboats and vessels, including the American Salvor. He graduated from SUNY Maritime in 1995.
"I'm excited to be a part of the TITAN team," Dolson said in a company press release. "I've always looked up to this company as an industry leader and enjoyed seeing the positive impacts that TITAN projects have had in the marine world. It is an honor to work with the best in the industry."

Is anyone else having this problem? I have huge monster spiders everywhere this year. They're all between nickel and quarter size and they are building webs everywhere. And I'm not talking small webs I'm talking 10' webs and we are having to constantly knock down to walk through the yard. I usually have one or two spiders in the garden but this year it's like omg I'm being overrun. I'm not the only one as well. My brother's gf that lives a few streets over from me has the same giant spiders too. I'm just wondering does everyone have the same problem this year or just my little section of the planet aka SW Ontario. If I'm not the only one anyone know where they are all coming from? As I've said before I've NEVER seen this many spiders of this size before in one small area. Thanks for any responses. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I have seen some large ones too in my area of southern Ontario. Found one large one in a web on the neighbors window sill. He was done a web tunnel but came out when I was looking down it lol. Along our Grand river more than one person has said they have seen huge spiders too. Maybe they are immigrating up here from way south. Our climates are changing :) |
I don't mind spiders...they do eat bugs that might bug us....but what I hate about them is they leave a helllofa mess with their droppings. There are companies that can spray your home's outside to kill most what shows up and no damage need occur to your outside plants.....but it costs. If you have a zoom lens on your camera you might like to take a close-up of one of your larger spiders. It can make a fine show if you care for that kind of thing. Frame it...show your friends....give them the heebie-jeebies. Otherwise, enjoy their industrious nature....appreciate how they build their webs and how fast they do it. Did you know that spiders do not eat their prey.....they inject into their meal which turns the meal into liquid, which they then drink. No teeth to worry about so no cavities. |
I have seen a couple of large wolf spiders. No big web spiders yet. I've only seen baby spiders in webs so far. I admire webs too. Fascinating how precise they are. If I had to make one, it would not be so perfect. |

Donation to Making the Grade earns an A
By Sue Ellen Ross Post-Tribune correspondent January 16, 2013 2:04PM
Rob Gardiner (right) of Horizon Bank talks with local Boys & Girls Club officials (from left) Charles Sanders, P.J. Jones and Robert Montgomery at the Hammond, Ind., club Jan. 4, 2013. | Stephanie Dowell~Sun-Times Media

For more information about the Boys & Girls Clubs of Northwest Indiana, visit www.bgcnwi.org.
Updated: February 19, 2013 11:47AM
The Boys & Girls Clubs of Northwest Indiana have myriad programs that back up education for youngsters in the area.
One of the programs, Making the Grade, has earned the Hammond and Merrillville clubs a $25,000 donation from Horizon Bank.
Merrillville club director Madalyn Hurt, a former member of the East Chicago Boys & Girls Club, has fond memories of the dedication of the E.C. club's staffers and their efforts. Now on the other side of the welcome desk, she realizes the challenges it takes to keep things going and the importance of the after-school activities and educational programs.
"This (donation) is a blessing," Hurt said. "We are here first and foremost for the kids, and many parents also depend on us."
Making the Grade is a 10-week basic-skills program for ages 9 to 15. Professional staffers pass along findings about students' strengths and weaknesses in various subjects to the parents and, in some cases, to the students' schools.
Some of the instructional areas are speaking before a small group, using library resources, and using a thesaurus to expand vocabulary.
Each quarter, different groups of 15 to 20 students in the Hammond and Merrillville clubs are chosen to participate in the after-school sessions.
"We are expected to make this experience creative," said Charles Sanders, Hammond club program director, "and our educational coordinator, Shalonda Jones, did just that. This year, the group developed and printed a cookbook — 'Making the Grub.' "
The Merrillville club does not have a standalone building. The program meets at Merrillville Intermediate School.
"Our educational coordinator, Marco Taylor, has adapted well to (the facilities) we have to work with," Hurt said. "We use the gym and the computer labs quite a bit."
Horizon last year committed to annual $5,000 donations for five years, but decided to donate the remaining $20,000 this year.
"We have a big presence in these communities and support the Boys & Girls Clubs' admirable efforts," said Robert Gardiner, Horizon market president of Lake County. "It's important to build the future with programs like Making the Grade."

Yesterday via the "Restoring the first website" CERN Website, I discovered Accessing the line mode browser with 1960s tech, an interview of computer hobbyist Suhayl Khan, who shows us in a 15-minute video how to access the line-mode browser using 1960s tech.
Web History Community Group
This group gathers people interested in the history of the World Wide Web: how it was invented, what was out there that made it possible, and what happened in its early years. Our main goal is to collect and preserve valuable information (software, documents, testimonials) before it is lost.
This group will not produce specifications.

CERN Launches Line Mode Browser Emulator
The History of the Internet in a Nutshell
Twentieth anniversary of a free, open web
Today is the twentieth anniversary of the publication of a document by CERN that made the web available to all on a royalty-free basis. To mark this occasion we're kicking off a project to restore the first website, and preserve the digital assets associated with the birth of the web: http://first-website.web.cern.ch
The first small step in this process is the restoration of the files to the first URL: http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/TheProject.html
See what else is being planned – I hope this group can get involved.
Where is the missing NeXT optical drive?
I was talking with Robert Cailliau this morning about our project to restore the first website. He mentioned an interesting anecdote that could possibly lead us to an earlier version of the first website, but it's a long shot.
In 1997 Tim Berners-Lee's NeXT machine was shipped out to Santa Clara in California for the sixth World Wide Web Conference.
When the NeXT was returned by mail (via Stanford, I believe), the machine's optical read-write drive was missing. This drive contained a 1990 version of the first website.
The NeXT had a removable drive module that looked like this.
It's a long shot, but does anyone have any ideas on how we might trace such a thing? Would the NeXT's serial number lead us to a matching drive number range? Is anyone using this thing as a paperweight?
Restoring the first website
I work in the communications group at CERN where I am in charge of CERN's public-facing websites. We've set up a project to restore and preserve the first URL, which is sadly no longer active: http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/TheProject.html
We are in the process of selling the project to internal stakeholders and starting to build a team – and quite a few of us are really excited about this. We are also working with our design partners Mark Boulton Design to see how we can provide a better experience for visitors to http://info.cern.ch/
I got in touch with my colleague, Anita Hollier, the CERN archivist, for help. She told me about the presence of this group, and I'm now turning to you for your help, input, guidance and ideas.
What does 'restoring the first URL' mean? At its simplest it could be just making sure that CERN hosts the HTML files that have been mirrored here for some time, at their original URL: http://www.w3.org/History/19921103-hypertext/hypertext/WWW/TheProject.html
But it could also be so much more than this. For instance:
- CERN has two of the early WWW team's NeXT machines. We really think the ones and zeros on those computers should be preserved, and, if possible, shared.
- We should document the NeXT browsing (and editing) experience. There is a lot of TBL's original vision for the web in there that is as new and exciting now as it was circa 1990. These machines will not be usable forever.
- I'd love to see the line-mode browser experience somehow preserved – a browser-based emulator?
- There are IP addresses and machine names in the original WWW documentation mentioned that we could (p)reserve, and protocols such as telnet and FTP put back in place on certain servers.
- The original code packages that were available for download could be restored.
The next step is that we are going to outline our intentions via a blog, which will be available at http://info.cern.ch towards the end of April.
Anyone here want to get involved? If you have ideas, suggestions, offers of help, then please get in touch.
"The origins of the internet in Europe"
We've already mentioned Paul Otlet and The Mundaneum museum here. Google Cultural Institute has just published a site dedicated to them, showing how they designed the very first search engine in 1935 by inventing the Universal Decimal Classification system and storing 16 million fact cards in the Mundaneum in Brussels, which people could "query" by post.
Representatives from both Google and the Mundaneum museum are on this group, so congratulations to both!
'First' Pirate Bay Server on Permanent Display in Computer Museum
An (arguably) important part of Web history exhibited in a museum. From the article:
The Pirate Bay is one of the best known file-sharing brands and in less than a decade the site has well-earned its place in computer history. The Computer Museum in Linköping has a section dedicated to 50 years of file-sharing and one of the top pieces is one of the first servers used by The Pirate Bay. According to the museum The Pirate Bay has become a contemporary historical phenomenon and the server signifies "a revolution that begun in a dark grey metal box under a bed."
"Vague but exciting…"
CERN archivist Anita Hollier points me to the "World Wide Web (archives)" section of the CERN document server. It lists many documents that I'm sure would be of great interest to this group, but not much of them is available (yet). However, there is an early version of Tim's seminal paper: "Information management – a proposal" (PDF). There are other versions of it linked from the "original proposal of the WWWW" page at W3C, but not as nice as this one, which is scanned from a paper printout including handwritten annotations, like "Vague but exciting…", "Nice idea" (about links), "This is like e-mail, but who will implement and port all the user agents?" or "But it complicates life for the busy user". Anita (who I warmly thank) tells me they're from Mike Sendall, Tim's boss at the time. How right he was.

Orlando, FL, the holy grail of U.S. family vacation destinations, maintains its preeminent reputation by continually upping the ante on its already gonzo collection of places to go and things to do. Thanks to theme parks, water parks, animal adventures, and pop culture emporiums, fun abounds with giggles and character photo ops on a continuous loop. And just when you think you've done it all, Orlando adds new stuff — amazing stuff — stuff that begs repeat visits to indulge in the latest in killer coasters, theme restaurants, and jaw-dropping concept rides. Nowhere is this more evident than with SeaWorld's ever-expanding Orlando profile, currently represented in three distinct family-friendly experiences: Aquatica, SeaWorld Orlando, and Discovery Cove. And the best part is, you can visit all three even if your playtime is limited to a long weekend.Aquatica, SeaWorld's Waterpark Dress code: swimwear. Attitude: laid-back to crazed (this is the home of Dolphin Plunge, after all, with its 300-foot-long tubes that shoot you into a lagoon filled with black and white dolphins!). Three dozen water slides, six rivers, wave pools, beach areas for sunning, two animal habitats, and water rides/attractions with whimsical, quasi-South Seas names like Roa's Rapids, Wahalla Wave, HooRoo Run, and Tassie Twisters. And while many of the of the rides are big kid/adult-oriented, like the multi-lane racing slide (Whanau Way), mini versions have been created at Kata's Kookaburra Cove to ensure the little ones get to share in the excitement (and do they ever!). SeaWorld Orlando Shamu's personal stamping ground, this marine life adventure added (as of May 22) a mind-blowing flying coaster called Manta (because "it's like riding on the belly of a massive 12-foot wide manta ray as it glides and twists and soars above the ocean"). Yikes factor: Manta's seats rotate forward, putting riders in a face-down position just before launching them into a 56-mph trip that includes a pretzel-loop twist and in-line spins. Like others, I rode barefoot because flip-flops don't stand a chance. General consensus: "thrill ride" is not hyperbole. For individuals over 54 inches tall only. (For a preview, visit Manta's website: divedeepflyhigh.com.) In addition to the coaster, the Manta experience also includes 10 new aquarium habitats housing over 3,000 different sea creatures and fish, allowing the entire family — regardless of height — to get a taste of Manta world. As for Believe, Shamu and company's current show of shows, be sure to pick up a schedule of shows at the entrance to the park, and try to get there at least 20 minutes early for primo seats. Also recommended: Key West at SeaWorld (dolphins, stingrays and sea turtles), Manatee Rescue, Pacific Point Preserve (sea lions and harbor seals), and, of course, the irresistible Penguin Encounter. Restaurant recommendation: Sharks Underwater Grill featuring "Floribbean" cuisine and a floor-to-ceiling glass wall separating diners from 50+ sharks. Think what the folks back home will say when they download your smiling 6-year-old with Jaws, Jr., peering over his shoulder.Discovery Cove Two key words to know when it comes to this reservations-only retreat: Dolphin Lagoon, where you and your kids can spend half an hour interacting with bottlenose dolphins. Educational? Sure, but these amazing encounters, each led by an experienced trainer, is structured to give participants a chance to feed, nuzzle, pet, and ride the gentle mammals. At one point, Jenny, the most excellent dolphin assigned to my group (you're divided into groups of six to eight), jettisoned herself out of the water and into the air. Even if you don't schedule a dolphin encounter (dolphin swims are extra when booking an all-inclusive Discovery Cove adventure), there are plenty of other interactive activities to be shared, such as snorkeling, swimming alongside rays, and hand-feeding more than 250 exotic birds at the Explorer's Aviary. And you can always stretch out on the Cove's beautiful white sand beaches.When You Go For up-to-the-minute info on packages, pricing, special benefits (like the very useful Quick Queue that gets you express access to rides and attractions), contests, and seasonal park events and exhibits, visit www.SeaWorldOrlando.com, www.aquaticabyseaworld.com, and/or www.discoverycove.com. In The Vicinity…. Pirates Dinner Adventure: An interactive, truly fun, swashbuckling musical with dinner and post-show dance party. www.piratesdinneradventure.com. Hint: splurge on the upgrade if your kids love the spotlight. WonderWorks: A state-of-the-art-multimedia playground for all ages housed in an upside-down building. Also at WonderWorks: The Outta Control Magic Comedy Dinner Show. www.wonderworksonline.com. Hint: Don't skimp on time; the number of interactive exhibits is staggering. International Plaza Resort & Spa: Directly across the street from the Aquatica, this newly renovated Balinese-inspired resort with its friendly staff, adult and kiddy pools, mini-golf, various dining options, and pampering L'Esprit Day Spa, is a charming, affordable, and extremely convenient home away from home for SeaWorld visitors. www.intlplazaresort.com.

Panelist Paul Kneeland, director of produce, floral, meat and seafood at Parsippany, N.J.-based Kings Food Markets, discussed the chain's rebranding efforts over the past few years, and bringing fresh produce into other areas in the store.
"Our logo changed to a whisk to emphasize the culinary experience," Kneeland said.
Kings started merchandising produce with gourmet tie-ins, like cheese and meat to create a meal solution.
"We can measure that effort and we've seen a 52% sales increase in those items," he said.
The conference also covered branding and packaging innovations and engaging the consumer post-purchase to drive repeat demand.

President Harrison heads to Middle East
When California State University, Monterey Bay President Dianne Harrison travels to Jordan and Oman later this month, she will take a step toward the goal of establishing exchange programs with universities in the Middle East.
Dr. Harrison is one of seven college and university presidents selected for the 2011 Fulbright-Hays Seminars Abroad Program. Her group will leave March 24 for the Middle East and return to the United States on April 8.
The seminar is an opportunity for them to learn about the changing higher education scene in the Arab world and return home to share opportunities for future program development in the region with their respective campuses.
Dr. Harrison and the other presidents are scheduled to meet with campus leaders in both countries to discuss institutional mission, resources, challenges and opportunities to work with American partners. The trip will provide an opportunity to refine and expand the international vision and agenda of CSU Monterey Bay and the California State University system.
"Seminar members will undoubtedly develop a better understanding of these countries' institutions of higher education," Dr. Harrison said. "As we share expertise and gain knowledge, we also will be helping to break what President Obama has called a 'cycle of suspicion and discord' between the United States and Muslims worldwide."
She pointed out that a major objective of participating in the seminar is the chance to develop and strengthen international exchanges and opportunities for students and faculty at CSU Monterey Bay.
"I believe it is essential that we are inclusive of countries from all parts of the world," Dr. Harrison said. "And that includes the Middle East. Our students and faculty can benefit by establishing partnerships with universities in the Middle East. By having their students come to the United States and to California we also add to our existing diversity on our campus."
Since arriving at CSUMB in 2006, she has worked to ensure that students not only understand the world in a global context but also experience it first hand by studying abroad.
Dr. Harrison's extensive travel abroad has given her a greater global perspective and made her a strong advocate for international education. During her tenure at Florida State University, she participated in and oversaw international programs as a faculty member and administrator. Her work took her to countries across Western and Eastern Europe and to Vietnam, Israel, Jamaica, Trinidad and Panama.
Dr. Harrison's group will spend five days in Oman before moving on to Jordan for five days. During that time, according to information from the U.S. Department of Education, which administers the program, the group will:
• Be exposed to Arab and Islamic culture;
• Have opportunities to observe and compare higher education systems with local counterparts;
• Meet with Education USA staff members who advise undergraduate and graduate students seeking information about study in the United States;
• Have discussions with administrators of study abroad programs for U.S. students; and
• Have opportunities to learn of special higher education initiatives such as the El Hassan Science City in Jordan and Oman's development of a unified online admissions system.

Wholistic approach helps reduce chronic pain, improve quality of life
Sometimes it takes two, and with chronic pain, a combined approach may be a winning combination. A recent study published in late June revealed that an integrative approach to treating chronic pain significantly reduces pain severity and also improves mood and quality of life.
The study, published in the Biomed Central Complementary and Alternative Medicine journal, evaluated 252 patients at nine different clinical sites. The study tracked patients' measures of pain, quality of life, mood, stress, sleep, fatigue, sense of control, overall well-being and work productivity.
Researchers found a reduction in pain severity of more than 20 percent and a drop in pain interference of nearly 30 percent in participants after 24 weeks of integrative care.
The study explains integrative medicine as providing patient-centered care that takes a wholistic or "whole systems" approach that addresses the physical, mental, emotional, social, spiritual and environmental influences that impact a person's health.
During the study, there was no standardized approach for all study participants. Instead, practitioners at each of the clinical sites created treatment plans on an individual basis for the chronic pain patients. All the clinical sites included integrative physicians, acupuncturists, mindfulness instructors and yoga instructors. Some sites also included massage therapists, manual medicine therapists, fitness/movement specialists, dietician/nutritionists, psychologists, healing touch therapists and other energy practitioners.
"Chronic pain is very difficult to treat," said lead researcher Dr. Donald Abrams, in a statement. "While there have been some therapeutic advances, many patients with chronic pain become resistant to conventional medical treatments or suffer adverse effects from widely used prescription medications with high addictive potential," he said.
"The results from this study are particularly encouraging as chronic pain is the number one condition for which patients seek care at integrative healthcare clinics," added Abrams, a cancer and integrative medicine specialist at the University of California San Francisco Osher Center for Integrative Medicine.
A 2011 report entitled "Relieving Pain in America" published by the Institute of Medicine estimated that nearly 116 million American adults suffer from chronic pain, a number that surpasses those affected by heart disease, cancer and diabetes combined. The report concluded that in terms of medical expenses and lost productivity, chronic pain costs between $560 billion and $635 billion each year.

Brent Whitson is tall and stocky, with a quiet, solid demeanor. He's 29. He's been a stockbroker and has worked in pharmaceutical sales, but he always wanted to go to cooking school.
Tanner Meshberger is only two years older than Cody. He keeps his eyes down while he speaks. He worked in construction with his father, he says, and didn't like it. He wants to "paint and be creative. I don't really have any goals." His voice trails into silence.
"I grew up in West Virginia, cooking everything from squirrel to brains," says Don Bartlett, a crop-haired and neatly bearded man in his forties. After four years in the Air Force, Don got a degree in respiratory therapy and had a highly successful hospital career, ultimately running two departments. He's the father of two daughters. "I got rooted," he says. But on weekends, he cooked for his friends and dreamed "of a place of my own that people would flock to."
Later Don explains with a slight smile that his first wife, to whom he'd been married 21 years, left him to follow the Grateful Dead. A few months before the cooking class started, he married Rhonda, a nurse he met at the hospital and the mother of a small son. He described his vision of a restaurant to her. "One evening she said, 'What would it take for you to follow your dream? If I can double my salary, would you quit your job and go to school?'
"She went into computer tech and in eighteen months doubled her salary," Don remembers. "She got the first paycheck, slapped it down and said, 'Now what's your excuse?'"
One of thirteen children growing up on a farm in South Dakota, Ethel Merrigan, now in her fifties, wanted to be a home economics teacher. Instead, she went into sales. For several years, she owned her own clothing store. "I'd like to run a country inn," she says, "a tiny place with a wonderful kitchen." But, she adds, "whatever comes, comes."
Elizabeth Perrault got a degree in hotel and restaurant management and then went to Mali as a Peace Corps volunteer. One of her projects was introducing soybeans as a field crop. "They're so poor, so incredibly malnourished; they couldn't afford protein," she explains. "I lived in a mud hut for a time and then in a small concrete house. I rode my motorcycle to the villages every day and worked with several different women's groups on growing soybeans and then teaching them how to cook with them. I taught them to make soy milk, because a lot of times the women couldn't breastfeed -- they were off working. We also made these things called soumbala, little fried balls. We'd go to the market and sell them." She smiles. "I had a great time with the women."
After that, Elizabeth worked in the high-tech industry, most recently as a recruiter. But her heart wasn't in it. She took some evening classes at the Cooking School of the Rockies, met her partner at the first class she took there, and fell in love with cooking. "I'm interested in food and travel writing," she tells the class, "and perhaps someday having a lodge/ retreat in the mountains where people can go and get nourished. On all levels."
Introductions over, Chef James runs over protocols and procedures. Every week, one student will serve as kitchen manager, coming in early and making sure that everything runs smoothly. The students will learn by being shown dishes and then cooking them, receiving the written recipes only afterward. One student will always be the designated bread baker, a job that at first requires making only a baguette or two but ultimately involves an array of rolls and loaves. In the afternoons there will be wine tastings, planning sessions or lectures: how to cost out a menu, how to use the Internet, the basics of food writing, developments in the industry. Essay assignments and written tests will be given. The students are to keep their white jackets clean and pressed; they are also responsible for cleaning and maintaining the kitchen. Almost every day, they will prepare a several-course meal for themselves, the dishwasher and any guests who happen to be present, a group that sometimes includes the school's owner, Joan Brett.
Once a lawyer, Brett made her way to the kitchen over a decade ago. She attended Peter Kump's New York Cooking School in 1990 and founded the Cooking School of the Rockies in Boulder on her return, beginning with classes in the kitchen of her own home in the fall of '91. "I haven't regretted my decision for one second," she says. "What I do now is make people happy instead of unhappy. And the stress of running a business doesn't compare to the stress of being a family lawyer."
In addition to the Cooking School of the Rockies' professional program, which has a strong regional reputation (one graduate is currently in charge of specialty foods, including cheeses and olives, for Boulder's Whole Foods Market; others work at Triana, Full Moon Grill, Maggiano's and the Flagstaff House), the school offers dozens of single classes on topics ranging from chocolate to soup and barbecue to ravioli, as well as week-long technique workshops and a month-long professional pastry class.

Great sock for post-run/ride compression; however, they run large. I own another pair of Zoot compression socks and I ordered the same size; however, these have a looser fit. They are easier to get on and hold the fit for prolonged wear. Love the color as well!

Please ID this rose for me. I would like to add some of these roses across the front of my house but of course I don't remember the name. I thought is was Michaelangelo but see that that is a yellow rose. Then I did some checking on the internet and thought it might be Mozart. It doesn't really look quite the same. It seems like the name starts with a M but I just don't know. This rose bush is 5' tall and probably 3' to 4' wide, amazing blooms, great foliage and no blackspot. It is about 5 years old and I got it from Home Depot. |

text: Qatar Labour LawAirport | Embassies | Facts | Getting Around | Teaching English | Time | Tours | Vacations | Visas | Weather | Work Sponsorship, Work Permits and Other Practical InformationSponsorship | Labour Unions Also see: Current Vacancies in Qatar and the Gulf Sponsorship Currently almost all employees in Qatar require sponsorship. Employees are not allowed to work for anyone other than their sponsor even on a part-time basis. In practice this rule is often broken, although doing so is sufficient grounds for cancelling a work permit. Employees cannot normally transfer sponsorship unless they have worked for their employer for two years. They will also need a clearance letter from their sponsor in order to do so. A sponsor can ban a departing employee from returning to the country for two years. Sponsors do not have the right to keep the passports of their employees except to perform official business, unless it has been agreed in writing between both employee and employer. Employees who are sponsored can in turn sponsor their own families. Fathers can sponsor their sons as long as they are under the age of 25 and are students, and can sponsor their daughters until they marry. Workers can not leave the country without an exit permit, although minors and wives may do so. After a residence permit is cancelled, an employee can not return to the country for two years, even as a tourist. WomenWomen seeking work in Qatar who are on a family sponsorship do not need a separate work permit. However, they must register as a working woman at the Labour Department. To do so they must have to have the permission of their sponsor (in the form of a signed letter). While women are entitled to the same pay, training and promotion prospects, they are not allowed to undertake hazardous work. After a year's employment women are entitled to 50 days paid maternity leave. A women may not be dismissed because of marriage. According to the sponsorship law issued in 2009 women can sponsor both husbands and children. For more information see: Working Women in Qatar ContractsEmployment contracts must be drawn up in Arabic. While a contract may be translated into another language, where there is a dispute over translation the Arabic version will always prevail. One copy of the contract must be given to the employee and one to the employer, while a further copy is kept at the ministry of Labour. Dismissal and ResignationDuring the probation period of a job which can last up to six months an employee can fired with three days notice. Otherwise either the employer or the employee can terminate a contract without giving reason; the period of time required varies depending on the length of service and how the employee is paid, but can be anything from a week to two months. DisputesDisputes between companies and workers can be referred to the labour department. If the labour department cannot resolve the problem it will be referred first to a reconciliation committee and the to an arbitration committee. In the event of being dismissed an employee may be able to appeal to the lab our department, but must do so within seven days of receiving his or her dismissal. If you have a complaint you should contact The Labour Department: Tel: +974 4406554 For a serious issue, contact The National Human Rights Committee: Tel: +974 4444012 Working Hours48 hours is the maximum amount of time a employee may be required to work under Qatar labour law without the payment of overtime. Normal working hours consist of eight hours a day, six days a week. However, during Ramadan these hours should be reduced to 6 hours a day with a maximum of 36 hours a week. Working hours should include at least an hour for rest, eating and prayer. Even with overtime, employees should not work more than ten hours a day. Part Time WorkUntil recently employees were not allowed to take on additional work outside their primary job. This has now changed, and workers can now take on additional part time work if they have the permission of the sponsor. HolidaysEmployees are entitled to a minimum of two weeks leave a year. Expatriate employees must be provided with an air ticket at the end of their contract. Friday is a designated holiday, and a worker should never be required to work more two consecutive Fridays. Workers are also entitled to leave with full pay on Eid Il Fitri, Eid AlAdha, Independence day and three other non-specified days. Muslims are allowed two weeks of unpaid leave to perform the pilgrimage. SicknessWorkers are entitled to two weeks sick leave on full pay and half pay for another four weeks, after which they are not entitled to any further pay. After 12 weeks of sick leave the employee can be dismissed. Labour UnionsLabour unions are only allowed for Qatari employers.

Sometimes it takes a tragedy for action to be taken in a certain area. The residents of Chesterfield County experienced just that back in January when a 1st grader died while in school due to an allergic reaction which caused an anaphylactic shock. The death may have been avoided if an emergency injection of Epinephrine, colloquially know as an Epipen, had been immediately available. Unfortunately by law the school could not maintain a stock of Epipens unless the child had a doctor's prescription and the parent had brought it and the Epipen to the school for them to use in an emergency and that could only be used on that specific child.
The Chesterfield County School System had several procedures in place at the time to handle food related allergies. According to Shawn Smith, spokesman for Chesterfield County Schools, back in July 2011 they had mailed to every household who had enrolled a child in the school system, a letter outlining their policies regarding allergies and what parents needed to do to ensure the safety of their child. Parents were also instructed on how to have their child's medication on hand at the school. At the beginning of the current school year the school system counted in excess of 58,000 students enrolled but only 639 were registered with allergies that would possibly put them at risk. Mr. Smith also said that since the January tragedy more than 40 families have registered their children as allergic and have taken the steps to protect them.
Very quickly after the tragedy in Chesterfield two identical bills were proposed in the Virginia General Assembly to deal with the Epinephrine issue. One in the senate (SB 656) patroned by Senator Donald McEachin and the other in the house (HB 1107) patroned by Delegate Thomas Greason. They have now passed both houses and are summarized in House Bill 1107-ER:
"Requires local school boards to adopt and implement policies for the possession and administration of epinephrine in every school. The school nurse, a school employee, or an authorized and trained volunteer may administer the epinephrine to any student believed to be having an anaphylactic reaction. The bill also requires the Department of Health, in conjunction the Department of Education and the Department of Health Professionals to develop and implement policies for the recognition and treatment of anaphylaxis in the school setting."
The bill also amends current law for anyone "who provides, administers, or assists in the administration of epinephrine to a student believed in good faith to be having an anaphylactic reaction, or is the prescriber of the epinephrine, shall not be liable for any civil damages for ordinary negligence in acts or omissions resulting from the rendering of such treatment."
Dr. Diane Helentjaris, Director for the Office of Family Health at the Virginia Department of Health said they are aware of the bills and are working on the bill's requirements with the other Virginia Departments. They expect to have a draft by mid-April made available for revision and a final working proposal done by mid-June and sent to the Health Commissioner for final approval. This would make the procedures and policies available around July 1 to the school systems for implementation.
However, the bill does admit in it's impact statement, "At this time, the number of schools that would need to purchase epinephrine, and the number of school board employees that would need to be authorized and trained to administer it, are unknown; therefore, it is not possible to reliably estimate the potential fiscal impact to local school divisions resulting from the passage of this bill."
More information for parents with students enrolled in Chesterfield County schools can be found at their website: www.mychesterfieldschools.com
Another suggestion towards the better management of food allergies would be to do what this school system in Colorado schools is doing with a program called Allerschool (www.allerschool.com). See the school link at http://gipsee.com/schools/d11/. Prevention can be better in a lot of cases.

Xanthones and Xanthone Derivatives from Garcinia nitida
Ee, Gwendoline Cheng Lian and Lim, Che Kiong and Yap, Taufiq Yun Hin and Sukari, Mohd Aspollah and Rahmani, Mawardi (2007) Xanthones and Xanthone Derivatives from Garcinia nitida. Pertanika Journal of Science & Technology, 15 (1). pp. 77-83. ISSN 0128-7680
Full text not available from this repository.
A detiled chemical study on the stem bark extracts of Garcinia nitida has led to the isolation of five xanthones and two triterpenoids. They are 1,3,7-trihydroxy-2,4-bis(3-menthylbut-2-enyl)xanthone (1) osajaxanthore, (2) inophylin B, (3) 3-isomangostin, (4) rubraxanthone, (5) stigmasterol and stigmasterol acetate. The structures of these compounds were established using mainly 1D and 2D NMR spectrocopy. Acetylation of rubraxanthone resulted in two new compounds, rubraxanthone monoacetate (6) and rubraxanthone diacetate (7) with rubraxanthone triacetate (8).

2013 marks the year of the Serpent beginning on the new Moon on February 9th. Serpent is a universal symbol of healing and rebirth. Serpents crawl around the ground with grace and fluidity but contain the venom to kill. Among the mysteries of the Serpent, the year of the Serpent is a time for introspection, planning, and seeking answers. The Serpent's wisdom can influence new discoveries and inventions. In ancient China, the Serpent is one of the twelve animals of the Zodiac and was present in folk tales assisting births and blessing children with exceptional talents. Those born in Serpent years are driven to success and accomplish goals through careful plans and calculations- much like a coiled Serpent waiting for the right moment to strike.
2013 is a great reminder that it is never too late to be what we might have been. As January proceeds, the Sun moves into the change-maker of Uranus and asks to make this year tangibly different than the last. As January comes to a close, it is time to sort through threads from the past to see which serve us. Perhaps it is time to face painful memories or move out of our comfort zone into growth, finding new talents and resources we didn't know we had. We're safe because we know our ability and our willingness to love comes from within us. It is the ultimate form of learning to embrace our power.
The daybook/calendar that I use to keep track of my business and life is the We'Moon Astrological Datebook. Each year the theme changes, and this year is fittingly titled "The Other Side." We survived the end of the world in 2012, and we have reached the other side- not in a negative or positive way, but in looking at the other side of the story. Associated with magic, witchcraft, and Goddess worship, the number 13 has become one of fearsome connotations in Western culture. "The Other Side" as We'Moon puts it is a shift of focus:
"The broad canvas of Change that we have chosen for 2013 asks us to toss out our accustomed points of view…It invites the wisdom of deepened perspective, unlikely angles, and the unusual vision that sees The Other Side."
With the hustle and bustle gone from the holidays, the cold blanket of winter still remains. This is a time when all is contained within us– all the future possibilities, growth, and knowing. Fear is cold. Sometimes, we become so afraid of life, people, and ourselves that we become cold. Put warmth back in our lives. This is a time of illumination. It is dark and quiet before the blossoming of spring. As the light continues to increase, ask yourself what desire needs a bit more light to be seen clearly?
A 2013 habit I have started is reading a daily passage from the meditation guide Journey to the Heart by Melody Beattie. Originally a gift from a friend, Beattie's work has turned into a wonderful nightly ritual. I am usually so exhausted by bedtime I can not read an entire chapter, making reading an entire book seem impossible. Journey to the Heart is broken up by daily passages, so I read the night's previous message (to remember), the day of (to stay present), and the following day (something to dream about). So far my favorite passage from January has been the excerpt from January 13th titled Honor Winter's Lesson:
See the pine trees and learn their lesson. Pine trees are nature's reminder that growth continues even in winter. Winter is more than a time of coldness and snow. It's a time of going within…Despite the time of lifelessness and inactivity, this is still a season of growth. Cherish the hope that lies beneath the snow.
What Problem?
The other side of any problem, no matter how big or small, is the opportunity to ally with it as a vehicle for your own evolution.
Robin Rose Bennett
Let your soul lead you through meadows and take you down deep into the valleys, for all your experiences are just that– experiences– on this mysterious journey of the soul.

How/Why do most people start smoking? (A Poll For Curiousity)
I am not in anyway promoting the use of tobacco this is purely for my own personal education/curiosity. Without telling everyone on the forums my life's story I'll skip to the point. Why/how did or would you/someone start smoking? Keep in mind I was born in 1990 so I don't know much about it before my birth, as on the contrary some of you might. Summary: This is one of those topics you could go on and on about, forever, such as (from a male's perspective) how a woman's mind works (I gave that as an example because girls in my age bracket I will never understand) same for male's (from a females perspective). I have been curious how/why people start smoking. I don't know if anyone on the forum smokes or not, nor do I judge one for doing so, but why/how did you start or think one would start? My Story: I have smoked some myself, I will admit to that, and this is from a kid who use to hold his breath around smokers in fear of getting sick or something (I have OCD, use to be much worse, it was a compulsion I guess). I don't play the blame game, I have, that was my choice but I have to say that if it was not for a girl at my high school who I unfortunately hung out with occasionally, (for whatever reason) frequently did smoke and always tried to pressure me into doing so. To this day I don't know why, and I've accepted the fact that I'll never understand, nor do I necessarily want to (She has issues, we don't speak anymore). Why I'm Curious: Since my first formal job this past summer, then later continued as of 2 or more weeks ago I noticed a lot of my co-workers do. Most of them are older and they are pretty discrete about it, but some of them I would never have imaged smoking until they that idea was changed when they came through my check stand buying a pack. Another thing that sparks my interest is that it seems like a large amount of soldiers smoked in World War 2, and the fact that they had a cigarette that was standard issue (I've been fascinated with World War 2 since I was little). Granite I was not alive at the time nor do I know any of this for a fact but from Band of Brothers and The Pacific it seems like it was used to put up with the stresses they had to face in daily life. I'm not saying every soldier of WW2 did but it seems like a lot did. It also use to be socially acceptable as it was in advertisements and all over tv in the 50's from what I've seen. Medical Stuff: Just adding this last minute, I don't know what is in them for the most part, tobacco obviously but you (atleast me) hears a lot of things like, "There is drain cleaner in them" so I know little about that myself. I don't know how people from the 20's, 30's, 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, or 90's have been affected by them for the most part. I have met people who buy 3 packs in one visit, where I work, and they seem fine but I have also met a guy with a voice box, so its a broad range. I guess that is about all, I know there is a warning, that's about all for that part. I was going to write more but it seemed like overkill. Thanks for the fix to my curiosity! -Lollies |

When I answered the poll I put Family as that is where you first observe adults smoking, Also TV ads from the eearly 70s glamorized smoking, then came the high school years where a lot of your friends/family friends smoked. (And now they Don't but you still Do)
To be blunt All the above should be a category in the poll as they are all contributing factors why a person smokes or not |

I choose a reason not listed for starting.
Continued use however is a mixture of habit & stress. For me its certainly taken a toll on my health. I have major problems breathing for example, and have already had a lung collapse on me. 2 week in the hospital with a tube in your side is no fun, trust me. They said (doctors) although they didnt know the exact cause in my case, my smoking habit accelerated it, and it will happen again, guaranteed if I do not quit. As a smoker, I will say its a horrible habit and you should never start. Its a really hard habit to break, at least for me, to after youve been doing it for years. i managed to actually quite for 2 months after returning home from my hispital stay, and ended up starting agin .. due to stress I think. i dont really know why I did. |

my first cigarette was on the banks of the river seine during a school-trip to france.
i regularly started to smoke tobacco (and other things) whilst being a rebellious teenager, probably because i thought it looked cool at the time. smoked for twenty years until i managed to give up baccy about eight years ago in my mid-thirties... |

Never smoked here in La Crosse. Moved to Madison for college and the group of friends I met through the dorms pretty much all smoked. I made it awhile without joining them but once the partying and stuff really kicked off and they would have a cig I ended up joining them just when I drank. That escalated to about a pack a week which (thankfully) is still where I am at. I don't smoke a whole lot (I know any amount is bad) and will hopefully be kicking the habit here shortly.

I've never smoked. Anybody I know who does started because they wanted to look cool in front of people who already smoked to fit in. Or in front of people who didn't, to look edgy. I can't understand why somebody would start because of stress, surely the smoking only helps with stress once you have got the addiction?
I don't mind smokers as long as they don't push it around other people. I've met people who claim that they have as much right to smoke around people who don't because their chose to smoke is as valid as that of those who don't. I'm afraid that's just not the case though. |

I started smoking in college to be cool. After a couple of years, I gave up cigarettes for a pipe, a tobacco pipe. I quit that in 1968 when I was 24. As many of you know, my wife just had a lobe of her lung removed. She had been a lifelong smoker since the age of 16. Ironically, she had quit about six weeks before the cancer was found.

I started smoking in grade 7 to be "cool". It became a habit and I ended up smoking about 2 packs a day after smoking for 16 years. I quit in 2000 and have never gone back but it wasn't easy. I ended up putting on about 50 pounds from snacking instead of smoking. Now I'm back down to a healthier weight but smoking is one of those things that really takes a toll on you. When I see a group of young kids smoking, I want to knock their heads together cause they don't know or care about the risks and the lifelong costs of it.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Heathcliff!
Facts about Heathcliff
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Orange Or Red (Mostly)
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Short
Heathcliff's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Heathcliff was rescued by one of our volunteers and was found to be already neutered and a sweetheart.
He is now up to date on his vaccines, and looking for a new home.
This cat will be at our Petco adoption center on Rt 1 in Edison, south of Rt 287, in the Home Depot shopping center, open Sat & Sun, 11 to 4:30.
Other Pets at Ray of Hope
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Heathcliff, a East Brunswick Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in East Brunswick, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in East Brunswick.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in East Brunswick already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a East Brunswick breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in East Brunswick paves the way for another one to be saved.
