Unless you are the New York Knicks in the midst of your most exciting stretch of games in a decade, most NBA teams have all of their games on television, even if it's just a local broadcast. That's why these guys like looking good. When thousands of people are seeing what you look like in high definition, it's of the utmost importance to stay fly. I mean, Allen Iverson traveled with a hairstylist, just so his braids would look fresh on national television.
That's why it shouldn't come as any surprise that JaVale McGee and Trevor Booker made Nick Young shave his terrible chinstrap, even though he just wanted to be beard bros with his teammates. From Capital Games:
When Nick Young came into the Wizards locker room on Wednesday, it was with hurt feelings.
"JaVale hasn't been on my team in the past couple days," he explained. "He kicked me out of the group. The Chinstrap group. I had to cut my beard." [...]
"It was me and JaVale and half of Nick," Booker told us. "His wasn't in fully, so we had to kick him out. We told him to shape it up and we'll see where it goes from there."
Instead of trying to fit in, Young defiantly decided to show up Wednesday clean shaven.
"They said I couldn't fully grow it. So I was a little hurt," he said. "They could have at least let me in for trying."
I know it hurts when somebody tells you that you can't be part of a group, but I really think Booker and McGee are looking out for Nick Young here. There are few things that look worse than a guy who can't grow a beard trying to grow a beard. That's why Skeets is always clean-shaven despite the hirsute faces that surround him. Being outsted from the Chinstrap Group might suck now, but it's better in the long run.
Besides, chinstraps are one of the worst beards you can have and Trevor Booker is already trying to make amends.
Booker also showed up on Wednesday sans chinstrap and gave Young hope that he might fit into the group after all.
"I might grow my hair out like Nick and be the Afro Brothers."
Let's hope this happens. Because between the new retro uniforms and the gigantic, blown-out hair, the Wizards could really be on to something. They might not play well on the court, but a couple of guys re-enacting the 1970s would certainly look pretty awesome.

Other Pets at Pooches & Purrs Cooperative - Allentown
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Larry, a Allentown Beagle/Bearded Collie puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Beagle/Bearded Collie for sale in Allentown, or seeking a Beagle/Bearded Collie puppy from a breeder in Allentown.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Allentown 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 Allentown 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 Beagle/Bearded Collie breeders who help with Beagle/Bearded Collie rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Allentown paves the way for another one to be saved.

Robocop: Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over
If you're looking for a sneak preview of the movie Robocop, set for release next February, try the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). NHTSA has paid for a proprietary video that has the cop reminding drivers to stay sober behind the wheel. NHTSA just released the public service announcement as part of its annual Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign, which runs through January 1.
Last year, according to NHTSA, deaths in crashes involving drunk drivers increased 4.6 percent — 10,322 lives were lost, compared to 9,865 in 2011. The majority of those crashes involved drivers with a blood alcohol concentration of .15 or higher — nearly double the legal limit. During last year's holiday season alone, 830 lives were lost in drunk driving crashes.
The campaign also includes state model guidelines for ignition interlock devices. These devices can be added to the car of a driver with a history of drunk driving. Before starting the vehicle, the driver must breathe into the device and if the driver's blood alcohol limit is too high, the ignition lock will not allow the car to start.
Previous NHTSA research of convicted drunk drivers show that those with ignition locks installed are 75 percent less likely to repeat the behavior compared to those who do not. The guidelines emphasize several programs to maximize effectiveness – including legislation, education, program administration, and implementation.
"It is unacceptable and downright offensive that anyone would get behind the wheel drunk, let alone at twice the legal limit," said NHTSA Administrator David Strickland. "I urge the states to adopt our new guidelines to protect sober motorists and ensure that individuals convicted of drunk driving learn from their mistakes."
According to NHTSA, over the past decade, almost two of every five (41 percent) deaths that occur around the New Year's holiday and the Christmas holiday (37 percent) were alcohol-impaired.
>>Bonus Link: NHTSA has safety tips and information on sober driving during the holidays. View NHTSA's Safety 1n Numbers newsletter for safety tips and information on sober driving during the holidays.
Public Health News Roundup: December 19
Severe Flu-Like Illness Under Investigation in Texas
Health officials in Montgomery County, Texas, are investigating an outbreak of an influenza-like illness that has so far resulted in eight hospitalizations, with four of those patients having since died. Recent tests on the other four show that one seems to have the 2009 H1N1 influenza virus, two were negative for all flu viruses and results are so far unknown on the fourth patient. Close to 2,000 cases of the illness have been reported. So far the investigation suggests that none of the patients who died had been vaccinated against flu, and county residents who have not yet had the flu shot are being urged to get one. According to the county's health director, the hospitalized patients range in age from 41 to 65, which is not typical; severe flu symptoms more likely occur in very young or very old patients. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is assisting the health department in investigating the outbreak, and the county has established a telephone hotline and Facebook page to respond to questions from the public. According to news reports, the current outbreak resembles a cluster of severe respiratory infections in Dothan, Ala., in May; however tests showed that those hospitalized patients had a variety of common respiratory viruses and bacteria, with no unusual pathogens.

CDC Issues Travel Advisory in Caribbean
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has issued a travel health notice because of recent cases of chikungunya on the Caribbean island of St. Martin, which have been confirmed by the World Health Organization. According to the CDC, chikungunya is a very serious illness caused by a virus that spreads through mosquito bites. The most common symptoms are fever and joint pain. Other symptoms may include headache, muscle pain, joint swelling, or rash. The mosquito that carries chikungunya virus can bite during the day and night, both indoors and outdoors, and often lives around buildings in urban areas. There is currently no vaccine or medicine to prevent chikungunya. Travelers can protect themselves by following CDC recommendations on preventing mosquito bites. "Microbes know no boundaries, and the appearance of chikungunya virus in the Western hemisphere represents another threat to health security," said CDC Director Tom Frieden, MD, MPH, in the release. "CDC experts have predicted and prepared for its arrival for several years and there are surveillance systems in place to help us track it." Read more on infectious disease.
Life Expectancy Increases among Treated HIV-Positive People in North America
A new study in the journal PLOS ONE finds that a 20-year-old HIV-positive adult on antiretroviral therapy (ART) in the U.S. or Canada may be expected to live into their early 70's, a life expectancy approaching that of the general population. Researchers calculated the life expectancies of nearly 23,000 individuals on ART based on mortality rates in the early to mid-2000s. Changes in life expectancy from 2000-2007 among HIV-positive individuals were then evaluated using sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, such as drug use history and immune cell counts. The researchers found that life expectancy at age 20 increased from 36.1 to 51.4 years from 2000-2002 to 2006-2007. Men and women had comparable life expectancies in all periods except the last (2006-2007). Life expectancy was lower for individuals with a history of injection drug use, those who were non-white, and those who initiated ART with low CD4 count (a count of cells that activate the immune response) compared to those who started at a higher count.

Meme's the Word in Public Health
Public health professionals have very serious and important work to do—but that doesn't mean they can't poke a little fun at themselves in the process. Memes—essentially shared cultural statements—are all the internet rage these days, and the field of public health is not immune to their widespread appeal. A few collections of health-related memes have crossed our desks recently.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has launched an online campaign to build a community of public health "nerds" that uses social media graphics to spread the word. The campaign, as reported by Public Health Newswire, aims to mobilize the public health community and generate interest in the field's careers. Since August, the CDC has posted four graphics to its Facebook page that acknowledge the important role of people in public health in a humorous way.
Jim Garrow, of The Face of the Matter, has created a Tumblr of public health memes so that you can get your daily dose of health puns and jokes. In addition, a recent post from Upworthy features 14 memes that use images of everything from Beyonce to Captain Jack Sparrow to depict an "unhealthy" love for public health. The memes on these pages cover a wide range of topics from the Affordable Care Act, to disease outbreaks, to mental health issues by incorporating images from popular television series, movies and internet GIFs.
A few of our favorites are included below.
Gun Violence: Teens Demand a Plan
Shortly after the shooting of 20 children and six adults in Newtown, Ct., a large group of Hollywood stars released a video asking viewers to "demand a plan" on action to be taken to prevent future mass shootings. Since then several videos have popped up on YouTube that show almost all of the actors in the video wielding weapons in films and television shows.
Another video also demands a plan on gun violence, with a compelling set of spokespeople. This one stars and was developed with minority teens in California and produced by the California Endowment, a private health foundation. At last check, the teens' video had gotten close to 750,000 hits on YouTube.
NewPublicHealth spoke with Barbara Raymond, director of youth opportunity at the California Endowment about how the video came to be and what the next steps are for taking action on gun violence.
NewPublicHealth: How did this video come to be?
Barbara Raymond: The Endowment looks at health very broadly, including things that happen in our schools and happen in our neighborhoods. We started work a couple of years ago in 14 communities across California, and through the process we've worked with over 20,000 residents and they came back so strongly saying safety and my own health prevention are our number one issues. And they drilled down further to issues including school safety and school climate and the epidemic of suspensions and extreme school discipline policies.
We have been able to engage a whole set of young people and they have really identified these issues as well. It's especially the young people saying that working on these issues is urgent, including violence in the community and on the streets of our neighborhoods, fixing issues in our schools and what the kids call the school-to-prison pipeline. These issues have just come up so strongly so when the Newtown tragedy happened, young people wanted to say something and react to that.
As staff, we talked about how the tragedy would open up a whole public conversation around mental health and school safety practices and staff members suggested we reach out to the kids with the video idea.
NPH: How were the kids involved in the development of the video?

Transit of Venus Story
Rare Alignment
A transit of Venus occurs when Venus passes directly between the sun and earth. This alignment is rare, coming in pairs that are eight years apart but separated by over a century. The most recent transits of Venus were a thrilling sight in June 2004 and 2012, with the next transit of Venus pair occurring in December 2117 and 2125.
Global Expeditions
Observers from two locations on earth see two distinct paths (red and blue) of Venus across the sun. The slight difference in times Venus takes, moving from edge to edge, can mathematically unlock the distance from earth to the sun, and thus the size of our solar system. For 17th & 18th century transits, intrepid explorers set out to answer a leading question of mankind. Not all of them made the voyage back home.
Mystery of "Black Drop"
Just before or after the levitra dose circular black dot of Venus seems to touch the edge of the sun, a peculiar "black drop effect" sometimes occurs between the contact points. A ligament of darkness smears the juncture of Venus and the sun. You can see a similar anomaly if you almost pinch your thumb and forefinger together. Just before you sense contact, a black feature spans your two digits.Transits Lead the Hunt
Once again, transits are on the leading edge of new discoveries. The NASA Kepler mission and nassmc.org others are using the transit method to find habitable planets around distant stars. The Kepler spacecraft monitors over 150,000 stars, looking for periodic dips in their light curves which reveal the presence of companion planets. You, too, can join this quest for new worlds.

Earlier in the conference I presented my concluding paper and prezi, A Commmunity Celebrates the Transit of Venus. I invite you to peruse the prezi in depth to get a sense of how one community embraced the opportunity to promote math and science. An audio recording of that talk is online.
This transitofvenus.org website still needs material on the aftermath of June 5, including images of the 2012 transit of Venus itself and results of scientific inquiries. I hope to add valuable content here in the future, but at a leisurely pace.
In the interim, I will be casually building the the best choice buy levitra without prescription website www.nightwise.org, a portal to my other interests and to astronomy in my community.
I thank the many supporters who have encouraged and http://www.pjr.com/levitra-online-buy supported Transit of Venus education and public outreach. In particular I thank my wife Mary, my kids Eric and Sarah, Steven van Roode, Patrick Rumley, and the many parties seen in the prezi. That was fun.

Astronomy educators and enthusiasts near the Michigan-Indiana border embraced the 2012 Transit of Venus as a community celebration. Among the diverse components were a planetarium program, a treasure hunt, a lecture series, a symphony performance, a newsletter, a motor coach tour, original videos, art exhibits, historical displays, public outreach events, Sun Funnel workshops, social media initiatives, related products by small businesses, multiple observing opportunities, and a time capsule. This talk parallels the interactive prezi Transit of Venus Across the Sun at http://prezi.com/3tgyibho9g-w/transit-of-venus-across-the-sun/.
For the 2012 transit of Venus, a community of astronomy educators and enthusiasts near the Michigan-Indiana border (dubbed Michiana) embraced the 2012 Transit of Venus as a community celebration. Outreach efforts were diverse, extending into schools, businesses, institutions, and informal education venues. An interactive presentation Transit of Venus Across the Sun at http://prezi.com/3tgyibho9g-w/transit-of-venus-across-the-sun/ has sixteen circles laden with images and embedded videos that suggest the extent of the community effort. Highlights of each black pearl on the string--each a talk unto itself--are summarized below. An audio file of the talk, delivered in the paper session at the Buhl Planetarium, is at http://www.transitofvenus.org/docs/2012GLPA-Pittsburgh2.mp3.
Diverse partners stepped up to plan and execute events before and during the cailis canadian farmacy transit of Venus. Among them were staff from planetariums, a math center, University of Notre Dame, a microbrewery, art galleries, astronomy clubs, NASA, and small businesses.
Talks, Papers & Workshops
Prior to June 2012, I presented papers and link for you cheap 25mg viagra posters at the National Science Teacher's Association (NSTA) National Conference in Indianapolis; the Great Lakes Planetarium Association (GLPA) in Urbana, IL; the Astronomical Society of the Pacific (ASP) in Baltimore, MD; the American Astronomical Society (AAS) in Austin, TX; and the Michiana STEM Forum IV in South Bend, Indiana . Additional talks were at astronomy clubs, Rotary Clubs, and public venues in Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, and Indiana. A sample is at http://youtu.be/4bufgnyXw7c. Publications included Planetarian, Journal of the International Planetarium Society; Universe in the Classroom; The Classroom Astronomer; and regular newsletters for the PHM Digital Video Theater.
Stump Speech
After the 1639 transit of Venus, Jeremiah Horrocks complained about two things. First, he didn't have enough time to warn others about the impending alignment. Second, he had to compete with sports. Of his friends, Horrocks wrote, "Most of them care little for trifles of this kind, preferring rather their hawks and their hounds."
Today science educators are still competing with the equivalent of hawks and hounds. If we as a nation want to prosper through math and science, then we need to celebrate math and science in action. Embrace it with the same zeal as sports and other popular culture. The transit of Venus is that opportunity to celebrate.
The Michiana community stepped up to prepare students and the public alike for the transit of Venus. Venues included libraries, planetariums, a community math center, and parks. Activities occurred at Science Alive, a family event at the main library in South Bend; Prairie Vista University, a five-session after-school program at an elementary school; AstroFest, a school district event that was duplicated at South Bend Union Station; AstroCamp, a week-long summer camp for kids; and the Michiana Star Party.
To broaden our reach into the community and to involve individual business, the Riverbend Community Math Center coordinated a regional treasure hunt for families, called TROVE Adventure. About two dozen small businesses and institutions each exhibited a historical artifact with signage describing the respective item. Families who picked up ten Keywords from among the sites received free solar shades as a reward.
Proceedings of the Great Lakes Planetarium Association 48th Annual Conference
Dale Smith, Editor
In past centuries, observers of transits of Venus have written messages for future witnesses of the celestial phenomenon. During and after the 2012 transit of Venus, spectators reflected on and shared their experience for their 22nd century counterparts. The written personal records and other transit of Venus artifacts from 2004 and 2012 will be sealed in the Transit of Venus Time Keg, a stainless steel time capsule made from a beer keg. Great Lakes Planetarium Association (GLPA) members can contribute their messages at the GLPA 2012 Annual Conference in Pittsburgh, PA, where the http://www.animationnation.com/cialis-on-line Transit of Venus Time Keg will be sealed, bringing closure, literally, to this popular and historically significant solar system alignment. A commemorative plaque celebrates nature's celestial spectacles, and invites people to open the Time Keg after 100 years as the 2117 and 2125 transits of Venus approach.Poster Text:
The Transit of Venus Time Keg is a time capsule containing artifacts and personal reflections from the 2012 transit of Venus. It is intended to capture elements of the celestial phenomenon in the 21st century and to inspire observers in 100 years when the 2117 and 2125 transits of Venus approach.In late September 2012 I wrote some elected officials and candidates for office, including President Barack Obama and Governor Mitt Romney, seeking their personal contribution to the Transit of Venus Time Keg. I asked them for their vision of the future, where they expect America to be in a century, and the roles science and look there levitra in india the observation of nature (e.g., the transit of Venus) serve in our national interests.
Awaiting their responses, I invite all candidates of political office--people who aspire to lead--to submit their long-range vision, as outlined below:
Dear Candidate for Leadership,
I write to invite you to support education outreach in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) by sharing your vision of the future.
According to NASA figures, the nation's space agency experienced "the largest NASA event ever" during the June 5 transit of Venus (Source: NASA GSFC, June 2012). For the last time in our lives, the planet Venus was readily visible during the day as it passed directly in front of the sun.
While both political parties profess to support STEM education, no political candidates led the nation in 2012 by personally witnessing the celestial spectacle that captivated the buy discount viagra rest of the world. Similar lackluster leadership occurred with the 2004 transit of Venus, which Google deemed the #1 Popular Event in the world for an entire month (Google Zeitgeist, June 2004). Is it any wonder some people think today's politicians are out of touch with constituents? I ask if you will challenge such prevailing cynicism and look ahead not just four years but, rather, 104 years, literally.
The Transit of Venus Time Keg (www.transitofvenus.org/misc/360-transit-of-venus-time-keg) is a time capsule to be opened by and to motivate future generations as they prepare for the December 2117 transit of Venus. Will you please write a letter of your vision of America for the people of that era? In your view, where are we now, and where do you expect us to be in a century when the next pair of Venus transits occur? What role does science and the observation of nature (e.g., the transit of Venus) serve?
Much of the national and global outreach for the transit of Venus originated in the Midwest, where we celebrated with an educational focus (e.g., http://transitofvenus.org/trove). Hence, the Time Keg will be sealed at the Great Lakes Planetarium Association (GLPA) Annual Conference, October 23-26, 2012, in Pittsburgh, PA.
Please write your personal statement preferably with permanent marker (e.g., Ultra Thin Point Sharpie®) on acid-free paper and mail it to the address below by October 19, 2012. If necessary to make the deadline, you may email a digital version, though longevity of printer ink is less assured. Include instructions as to whether I may publicly air your letter in 2012 or whether you want it to remain sealed and unread until the time capsule is opened. Your call. I prefer the latter if it means your written contribution to the Transit of Venus Time Keg would have more candor and less political correctness. That is, I'd rather have the people of 2117 judge the content of your letter than the people of 2012, the latter of whom might read it through the skewed filter of election year bias.
Thank you for your timely consideration,
Chuck Bueter

A Recap of the Transit of Venus on June 5, 2012
I've never surfed a big ocean wave before, but I imagine it's something like the transit of Venus. You prepare, you see it coming, you paddle franticly to catch the right spot. Then, for a fleeting moment you stand up, ride a mass of towering energy, delight in a surreal moment in a tunnel, then feel the watery bulk flow underneath you as you emerge on the wave's backside, thankfully intact. For the last couple of weeks I've been floating on the backside of that transit of Venus wave, and it's been quietly exhilarating.Eight years of anticipation peaked with a gorgeous June 5 in northern Indiana. The day got underway early with site preparations, as a tent was raised and brought to life with with electricity, cable, internet, and sound. Of course, the phone was ringing as last minute seekers of solar shades and the best choice cialis rx interviews dialed in to the day's events. There was nothing left to do with the website, as that ship had set sail. I reset the Countdown Clock for the 2117 transit of Venus, some 38,000+ days in the future, and walked away from the computer. Our Transit of Venus (TROVE) celebration was underway.
Shortly after noon a group of descendants of Irvin Stanley arrived, having come from Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, and California. Irvin Stanley was the Assistant Photographer for the US Naval Observatory (USNO) expeditions to Kerguelen Island (1874) and Patagonia (1882), and USNO Librarian Sally Bosken had generously provided many artifacts from the expedition archives. A highlight of the transit of Venus experience has been learning about and following this one person, Irvin Stanley, through the travails of exploration in a previous century. Now his family was touring regional transit of Venus highlights, with more than just the celestial sight on tap.
First up was an exhibit of transit of Venus art by high school students. Then I presented a talk centered on Irvin Stanley and the greater quest to find the Astronomical Unit from timed observations and photographs of the event from widely separated (hence, remote) locations. I wish I had had more time to peruse the family photo album that someone brought, but the family was ushered onto the motor coach and was off to the next stop–the Harris Branch Library, site of a transit of Venus display of artifacts and an art exhibit in pastel.
June 5 was the last day of school for the Penn-Harris-Madison (PHM) school district, and Art Klinger's astronomy class students began setting up telescopes and viewing devices in the field near the tent. Over an hour before first contact, spectators were showing up as we secured solar filters to telescopes with bright orange duct tape. I gave one last frenzied lecture in the theater before returning to the scopes outside A bustle of activity ensued until suddenly hundreds of people had gathered and there was talk of the transit beginning imminently. Scott Potosky quieted the music and wow look it real viagra online without prescription piped in a WWV time signal for anyone at a scope who wanted to capture the moments of contact by that audible method. Everybody had taken their first look at the sun with solar shades, which in itself yielded a lot of oohs and ahhs, before Venus even took the stage.
Venus entered near the one o'clock position on the sun, the planet not easily discernible to the naked eye as it worked its way across the limb. People waited patiently in lines to view through telescopes, a sight complemented by two significant bands of sunspot groups. I occasionally glanced in a telescope, but was strangely removed as I emceed the event for a growing audience. As second contact approached, I cut to the front of a line and planted myself. I felt like the narrator in Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.'s, The Flaneur. There I was, face to face with Venus, having a conversation with her at internal contact.
While the sight through a telescope was enthralling, I experienced an undeniable uncertainty and lack of confidence in my timing. Despite my familiarity with what to expect and my having witnessed the 2004 transit of Venus, I could easily have been off by 30 seconds. The sun was at about 30 degrees of altitude with no clouds obstructing the view, but Venus seemed to linger on the solar edge. I looked for the planet to separate clearly from the sun, but when that didn't happen I tried to see if the horns of the sun had reconnected. Was that a minimalistic black drop effect I witnessed that suspended time? How did so many of those earlier explorers seemingly fare better? I wasn't at the eyepiece long enough to look for other phenomena, like the aureole effect.
Four monitors in the tent showed other perspectives. Feeds were coming in from NASA's webcast in Hawaii, news channels, and websites like Steven van Roode's transitofvenus.nl and my own transitofvenus.org. David Wyatt tracked Venus through a video camera that was hooked into a telescope and enter site buy generic cialis online broadcast on a monitor. Another person projected a vast image of the transit onto a screen. Some people saw the transit through white light filters and a hydrogen-alpha telescope provided by AstroCamp of YMCA Camp Eberhart in Three Rivers, MI. Of course, a couple of telescopes were equipped with Sun Funnels, which yielded a projected image of the sunspots and of Venus in silhouette.
A few clouds moved in, thankfully after first and second contact, so during breaks in the action I demonstrated with a paper plate why transits come in 8-year pairs separated by over a century. I solicited and answered questions, pleased by the inquiries while realizing what I had previously left unsaid while narrating the event. The best memories are from the quiet moments when I shut up.
For example, after one extended cloud was ready to give the sun back to us, everyone realized when the sun was about to emerge from the well defined edge. I watched the crowd as they lifted their heads in unison and donned solar shades just as the sun brightened their faces.
During the whole event, a few local businesses that were supportive of science hawked their wares. Victorian Pantry served its Black Drop Effect Coffee, a smooth dark roast that was packaged with a design borrowed from the stained glass windows of St. Michael's Church in Hoole, England. Pizza Transit (yes, its pre-existing name) had both a Transit of Venus pizza and a Black Drop Effect pizza for sale. Taylor Design sold commemorative t-shirts, one of which has Worlds on Tour printed on the backside with the dates of past and http://www.markwellgroup.com.au/how-does-levitra-work future transits of Venus. Rock on.
People had been coming and going from the PHM site for the duration of the transit, and I joined the early departures. My heart was set on watching the transit underway at sunset from Warren Dunes State Park in Sawyer, Michigan, overlooking Lake Michigan. I had to see the Nitzschke-like view, what I consider an iconic transit image.
While I was driving to that lakeside destination, I realized other local observing sites with telescopes were drawing large crowds–New Carlisle Public Library (160 people), Andrews University (500 people), LaSalle Intermediate Academy (400 people), University of Notre Dame (~2,000 people). Each was staffed by dedicated transit of Venus enthusiasts.
We had distributed about 6,000 pairs of solar shades to people ranging from church pastors to juveniles at the detention center, so hopefully the shades were pressed into service. Venus was readily apparent naked eye to most people when it got away from the edge of the sun, albeit just a small dot on the sun.
As we arrived at Warren Dunes, a chilly breeze kept a red warning flag blowing stiffly. The Kalamazoo Astronomical Society had stationed itself on a large concrete pad overlooking the beach and lake, with a fabulous assortment of telescopes and observing devices, from grand to humble. Over a thousand people had gotten a glimpse of the transit through their gear that day, and sunset was approaching. I can't emphasize enough how beautiful the sunset was, with only the slightest of wispy clouds near the horizon that added character to the spectacle rather than obscured it. Seen in filtered telescopes, Venus contorted into a variety of shapes as her blackness or absence of light flickered through the thickest atmosphere.
The time came to abandon telescopes and solar shades. With the orange-ish sun plunging into the water, Venus was visible to the naked eye. I saw Venus at times appear to be nearly square, like four pixels on a monitor, and then it would momentarily disappear completely before re-emerging as an obvious spot on the sun. At one point the black blemish was above and right of a thin cloud line across the sun; soon it was below the thin line. Eventually Venus was gone, set below the horizon. The spectators watched the remainder of the sunset and cheered, sending well wishes to Venus for the next 105.5 years.
From there a modest crowd and the bus tour went to The Livery microbrewery in Benton Harbor, MI, where musician Venitia Sekema was performing an excellent musical set. We propped up the Transit of Venus Time Keg for people to write any last comments to denizens of the 22nd century. Shortly after 11:00 p.m. EDT we broadcast live via Slooh, showing some more transit of Venus art on display at the microbrewery. And, of course, we quaffed some Venusian ale, which had been crafted specifically for the celestial phenomenon. To see the half hour of our live broadcast, watch from about 0:52 to 1:23 of the Slooh Space Camera Transit of Venus Part 3.
Shortly before midnight, everybody inside the pub went out to the back patio and watched the International Space Station pass nearly overhead at magnitude -3.3. Onboard the ISS, astronaut Don Pettit would have been between the second and only for you online levitra sales third contacts, though we were in the dark below. Again we cheered, wishing Don well in his photographing of the transit from the ISS cupola.
Everyone was clearly getting tired from a long day. While I had intended to seal the Time Keg for its long storage, we opted not to do so that evening. I figured there may be a couple of items to add before we hastily closed the lid for good. If you have any contents that you wish to include, email me ( CLOAKING ) to see if there is room and time. I'd like to wrap it up soon.
The week after the transit of Venus has been a time to decompress and re-connect with family and friends. From my perspective, much more has passed by than just 6+ hours of Venus on the sun. It's been a long, fun ride, and I'm grateful to many people for their respective roles in this adventure. There is still much more to do, of course, but on a different level of urgency. Thanks for being a part of the 20th century transit of Venus experience, especially to everyone who contributed to the outreach effort.
What a sight. What a day. Surf was definitely up.

2 large Yankee Candle jars for £27.00 instore @ Yankee Candle, Glasgow
New Yankee Candle shop in Glasgow Forge has the usual 25% off selected fragrances, but also has the jar candles on a special 2 for £27, making the large jar candles just £13.50 each. Plus a ton of other offers on gift packs & accessories.
Cinammon Stick, Mandarin Cranberry, Sparkling Lemon, Vanilla Lime (and maybe one other but I forget which!).
Large jar candles
Reduced from £19.99 to £14.99 each or 2 for £27
Medium jar candles also on offer, but didn't really pay much attention to them, I *think* it was £12.99 each or 2 for £20 or something similar.
Also had a ton of other offers, most of the large jar shades that are normally £16.99 are around the £10 mark, the large trays down from £8.99 to £6. Glass tart warmers down from £16-18 to £10-12. Christmas 2 jar gift set that is £25.99 was I think £18.99. Lots of different offers available.
I've marked it as a local deal because I don't know if this is just because it's a new store or if there are other standalone Yankee Candle shops in the UK doing the same offer? Either way, it's an INSTORE ONLY deal.
The same deal for the jar candles is also on offer in the Hallmark & Thorntons shop nearby. I think they are price-matching, and if you want other scents, they all seem to be included in the deal in here.
- they are also in the 3 for 2 deal in Boots christmas offer. Don't know how much Boots are selling them for, was going to check it nearer to December
- They are 19.99 in boots 3for 2 works out about £13 each plus points. Also clinton cards often has 3for2
- £13.33 each fro 3 in Boots then, so slightly cheaper than £13.50 each.
However, no large cinnamon jars available at Boots, so I'm more than happy with getting them for £13.50 each. Cheapest I've ever managed to get them for up to now was £15 in the recent Union Jack candle deal, but even they only had the (slightly inferior) sparkling cinnamon. Just a hot deal for me personally then.... ! - Good deal but I fortunately don't need any just now, I've just came back from America with 15
Of them :-) 6x large for $60 over there also lucky enough to get 15% off too! - Have bought 4 of the large jars over the last few months from this store . Presently hav 2 of these burning and the wax is still around the sides i hav never had this happen before with these candles..does anyone have the same problem.. thanks

Dear All,
Following is a simple shell script that I've written in order to upload a file on to a ftp server using "curl". When I run this manually the system compress the files and send the tar ball on to the FTP location without any hassle. However when I put this script on crotab the line containing the ftp upload doesn happen but the tar ball is getting created. Following is the script.
BACKUPFILE=squid.backup.`date +%F`
tar -czvf $BACKUPDIR/$BACKUPFILE $CONTENT1
cd $BACKUPDIR
curl -v -T squid.back*
only the curl part doesnt work. I guess this has something to do with the crontab. Can someone help out please? Oh this is how my crontab entry looks and the job is run by root.
10 11 * * * sh /usr/local/sqbkup.sh
Thank you very much.

The fiscal cliff may seem like a sudden, devastating event but it didn't just appear out of nowhere. We've been heading toward this crevasse for years and haven't done much to bridge the gap it creates between the 2012 tax landscape and the much bleaker one we face in 2013.
The fiscal cliff marks the end of the Bush tax cut extension (signed by President Obama in 2010) as well as the start of new federal budget measures and the introduction of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act tax. These changes could, if nothing is done by congress before the end of the year, have a big impact on the wallet of every American, which is something you should consider if you're planning on taking an international vacation in 2013.
Who'll Be Affected
Individuals who make $200,000 per year or couples filing jointly who make $250,000 or more are in for a shock as their income tax rates are set to rise in 2013. But that doesn't leave everyone else in the clear; no matter what you earn, the end of the 2 percent payroll tax relief will put a cramp in your international travel budget.
In 2010 President Obama signed the Temporary Payroll Tax Cut, reducing the amount that individuals were required to pay toward Social Security in their payroll taxes. Set to expire in 2011, it was extended to continue the reduction in Social Security withholding through 2012. Now, as we near the fiscal cliff, it's set to expire leaving everyone's payroll check at least 2 percent lower.
As you will see below, some individuals will feel the impact of the cliff even more than others, as certain special taxes come into play.
Additional Tax Consequences
- Capital gains: Were you planning on liquidating an asset in order to pay for a trip? Well you might want to liquidate a little more than you originally planned. Short-term capital gains taxes are set to increase about 5 percent. Long-term capital gains rates are based on income, which may go up as well and a new 3.8 percent tax for Medicare may be tacked on to investment income, meaning that you'll net less in gains than you originally planned.
- Dividend income: Planning on dividend income to help pad your budget for your international vacation? Unfortunately, dividend taxes are set to rise from capital gains rates of 15 percent to as much as 43.4 percent so make sure your savings is able to make up the difference.
- Tax refunds: Some may be counting on their tax refunds to pay for their international travel. But with the marriage penalty making a comeback, no longer will you enjoy the full, two-person standard deduction that might have afforded you a bigger refund. Instead, married couples filing jointly will pay more in taxes than two unmarried individuals filing separately.
- Estate taxes: If you're planning on celebrating your retirement with a long, world-wide trip, you may want to rethink that if you still want to leave a substantial legacy to your heirs. The estate tax exemption is set to drop from $5.12 million in 2012 to $1 million in 2013. Anything you spend now on travel will reduce your legacy, which is already being cut short by the reduced exemption.
- The alternative minimum tax: Millions of taxpayers who've never even heard of this tax much less paid it, will be expected to do so after the cliff. According to The Washington Post, 26 million households will face an average AMT of $3,700 in 2013. Originally intended to stop deduction abuse, the AMT places a limit on the deductions that a taxpayer can take by excluding such things as charitable donations and housing interest.
The fiscal cliff doesn't have to stop your international travel plans, but it may force you to adjust them to some extent. One way that you can reduce the impact of these tax changes is to invest in international travel health insurance. An international travel heath insurance policy fits nicely into any budget and protects you from the unexpected medical treatment bills you can easily rack up while travelling abroad. You can design your coverage to provide basic medical care, repatriation benefits, emergency transportation in remote locations, and more.

How coal-port voting in Bellingham holds lessons for rest of state
In Edmonds, Seattle, Spokane, and elsewhere, organizing against a plan to export coal to China could begin right along the railroad tracks.
Heavier than expected voting in Whatcom County left in doubt Wednesday the fate of two races considered important to prospects of a giant export terminal proposed for Cherry Point north of Bellingham. Clearly settled, however, is the race for Whatcom County executive, where former Lynden Mayor Jack Louws easily defeated Sen. Doug Ericksen of Ferndale, 23,184 to 19,77 with about 24,000 votes yet to be counted.
Ericksen conceded defeat earlier Wednesday (Nov. 9). The race had been considered critical by terminal foes — Ericksen was an outspoken proponent, and terminal opponents feared he would pressure county officials during their review of project applications expected in the next few months.
In another race important to the issue, Bellingham Mayor Dan Pike, a leading voice in opposition to the terminal, continued Wednesday to narrowly trail former Rep. Kelli Linville, 8,656 to 8,233; the 423-vote Linville margin increased slightly from Tuesday. The race mirrored the dead-heat primary, won by Pike by only 28 votes. Linville has stated opposition to coal exports, which would take up 48 million of the 54-million-ton capacity of the terminal, but has been less aggressive in her opposition.
A third race of some importance tightened on Wednesday. Terminal opponents had hoped to defeat incumbent County Council member Sam Crawford; his challenger, Christina Maginnis of Bellingham, closed to within 321 votes, 20,982 to 20,661. In another closely watched county race, outgoing county executive Pete Kremen widened his lead over incumbent councilman Tony Larson, a backer of the terminal.
Whatcom County is co-lead for review of applications expected to be filed by Gateway Pacific Terminal at year's end, along with the Department of Ecology and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The County Council will cast important votes on the applications, and the county executive will be in a position to influence staff work. Louws has not expressed an opinion on the terminal, and terminal foes favored him over the advocacy of Ericksen.
The slow pace of vote-counting on Wednesday and the heavy turnout, already nearing 40 percent, means the Pike-Linville and Maginnis-Crawford races won't soon be resolved. But it is possible to draw from early results some indications of how politics will play in other communities as efforts to stop the coal exports begin to move outside Whatcom County and across the state.
An analysis of city of Bellingham voting patterns reveals the importance of proximity to BNSF rail tracks in building opposition to shipments of coal from the Powder River Basin to Cherry Point. Residents near the tracks have felt disruption from noise and congestion for the year-plus since BNSF began running coal trains to British Columbia.
Ten Bellingham precincts touch on Bellingham Bay and the BNSF railroad tracks, and two additional precincts are within a "sound zone" of half a mile from the tracks. In the Tuesday night vote count (roughly two-thirds of the total expected to vote), results from those precincts heavily favored Pike and Louws, the candidates seen as most favorable on the coal-export question by leadership of the anti-coal effort. Wednesday night results did not substantially change this analysis.
This was despite the fact that eight of the 12 precincts are within legislative district 42, represented by Kelli Linville for 17 years and by Doug Ericksen since 1999. Ericksen lost by large margins in his own precincts and Linville won only one of the 12. In Democratic Bellingham, Ericksen's reputation as a partisan Republican spokesman worked against his candidacy. Linville, on the other hand, is a familiar Democratic face and did well in the 42nd outside the "impact" zone near water. Bellingham is split into two legislative districts; the 42nd is primarily north and east, but has a leg along the city's waterfront.
Overall, Mayor Pike had a margin of 2,381 to 1,628 in the 12 "impacted" precincts, a 59.4 percent margin over Linville. Louws enjoyed an even larger margin over Ericksen, 2,265 to 976, carrying 70 percent of the vote.

I must have missed half of this article. I missed the half that spoke to any positive aspects of locating a coal terminal in Bellingham. There was not one serious contradiction of any of the claims made by NO Terminal advocates. Can you spell "Puff Piece"?
With one sided "journalism" like this (and yes, I have to stretch the definition to fit the reference), there is no mystery as to the main causal factor in our election of empty shirts and drones.
Heck ! I don't even have a dog in this fight ! I ain't even gots a horse in the race ! I'm just repulsed by the propaganda (Encarta def 2: misleading publicity: deceptive or distorted information that is systematically spread).
I hope, someday, to have the pleasure of reading news articles that cover both sides of current issues. It would be good mental exercise. Unfortunately, I think the ability to execute full brain analysis has been bred out of the "journalists du jour".
Just a hint:
the unintended consequences of this coal situation are not seen in Puget Sound Metro. No doubt, you will put on your best Halloween, "am I surprised" !, look when the after-effects hit the public stage.

Thanks for your comments

I am all for presenting all sides of an issue and then doing the fact checking and analysis on those issues--that strikes me as proper journalism. That said, this article is not about the relative merits and detriments of the Cherry Point terminal--coal or otherwise. This article is about the political dynamics of the issue. And residents along the rail route are feeling the impacts of increased coal train traffic to BC already, that is absolutely true. In short, this article is as advertised in the title. Thanks Floyd for covering this aspect of the issue.
Posted Thu, Nov 10, 8:13 p.m.
The author is reporting an issue that matters to Bellingham as well as other communities along the proposed railroad route, which remain underrepresented in the decision to proceed with this understandably controversial proposal. Unless these potentially negatively impacted interests find at least an equal voice in these proceedings, decisions will default to those with only short-term, selfish profit motives. Is that what is desired? I think not!
Those who 'no dog in this hunt' ought not to have much to say about it either. The problem is, we all have 'a dog in this hunt', and any success needs to be shared much more equally than the proponents expect.
Who really believes that exporting a raw natural resource to a major competitor and creditor, in exchange for foreign value-added goods and their associated exported jobs, is a good idea?
And that doesn't even count the greatly increased local nuisance, decline in property values and likely ecological degradation!
That's my view, which also represents the views of thousands of other citizens, who ought to be considered full stakeholders in this issue.
Posted Thu, Nov 17, 12:29 a.m.
I'll bite, Please, name for me one positive regarding this whole coal extraction, train shipment, industrial development and shipping to and burning in China of our natural resources. Maybe it's the fresh air?

This it awesome mixed in porridge, on crumpets or cooked with water and spices like a satay sauce. Great source of protein and good fats for us skinny veggies that get bored of protein powder too! Body builders could make a satay sauce to go with their chicken and rice.
I love nuts (not like that) and I love peanut butter. Weirdly this almond butter is like peanut butter but tastes more like almonds than peanuts. It's quite a bit thinner than peanut butter but with nice crunchy bits in too. I line my breakfast bowl with it or have it on porridge with honey. Well nice. Best price I could find for 1kg of it is here on myprotein and considering the serving you get from this it's worth the extra for a change from the old peanuts. Good review that.
Good taste to it,spreads well and was bought as a better alternative to peanut and cashew butter and so far it has proven to be the right decision. Will be buying againGoes Well With:Rice cakes and crackers
Easier than eating full nuts, spreads well on toast, tastes pretty awesome easy way to get extra protein and great fats in Goes Well With:A spoon
The Almond Butter is great but slightly grainy, but when used with a blender isn't too difficult to consume.Goes Well With:goes well with the Whey Impact.
love this cant go wrong with almond butter, nice big tub and no added salt or oils, wicked love both crunchy and smooth way better than peanut in health benefits crashing through a tub of crunchy wont last long lucky i got 3 more wahoooo.Goes Well With:organic corn cake with a dolop of greek (real) yogurt (sick)
Great tasting and cost effective way to supplement nutrition with good fats. I generally use the smooth variety as addition to a breakfast protein shake but fin it also mixes well into a banana and egg pancakes.
This one of the best almond butter quality and value for money
The Almond Butter is a great product,especially for those who want to drop all kinds of meat from their nutrition plan.Goes Well With:A spoon :D
I am hooked on this almond butter, nutrion value great, but the taste is just brill. I finished the other 1 kg tub in 2 weeks, thats my snack, like ic cream just better.Goes Well With:Protein shake (banana)
If you are a nut butter lover, don't hesitate and buy a whole 1kg. For me it won't last for long, but it's worth the money. One word - delicious!
to ensure I get enough protein I add this to smoothies, yogurt, baking (cakes, cookies etc), use as a spread or straight from the tub....there is nowhere you can't enjoy it!!...just be warned its a little addictive!! you need will power not to over indulge!!...
Nothing to fault really! Delivery was faster than I expected, which is a huge plus. Taste wise: subtly sweet, with a pure almond taste. Texture: not too drippy or stiff, just nice to slather on top of flax focaccia or coconut pancakes! (Or sometimes by the spoonful with cacao nibs...)
can't see much more than as it says on the tin! great for cooking and i put it in my smoothies. great value!
I don't think I've ever had peanut butter better than this. it's 100% pure, clean, no "E's" in it. it's fantastic and I love it. Big plus - it's cheaper than the standard supermarket ones.
Tastes great. The texture is good, a little bit of oil on the top but a easy mix will do the trick. Good value for money too! Will be buying again.
Divine! Great value too.
Love it! Perfect for my breakfast and post work out meal💛
Went through a lot of the peanut butter from MP so thought I would give this a go... Tastes even better, can't get enough of it an put it on everything at the moment. Good sized tub so it lasts a while also.
I love this stuff and it's such great value.
Spread on whole wheat bread is great with sweet foods (bananas, honey, marmalade) and salty things like olives, pickles, capers. It is also rich in Vitamin E in Magnesium.
Delicious, tastes excellent. It mixes well with Macro meal
just perfect for ketogenic diet, low carbohydrate, - high fat Very good taste, best price performance enyojGoes Well With:spoon and sour creme, greek yogurt... :-)
Ok in taste and texture, a little watery needs stirring well before spreading,
This butter is so delicious I just stick the spoon in and go :) Also add it to my shakes and protein hot chocolate.
For the price, this butter is awesome and if they sold larger tubs, I'd probably buy those too. I eat it every single day so large tubs are great. I do buy meridian too, which does somehow taste slightly better I think - hence 4 stars not 5!
Totally delicious and very good at giving energy until lunch.
Superb tasting butter at a fraction of the price in my local store. Super easy to spread straight from the fridge. A great addition to my supplements.
Really tasty, nicer flavour than peanut butter, IMO, and less claggy in your mouth. I love that My Protein doesn't add and horrible oils or sugars
The best butter in the market, excellent taste!
I love the fact that it's 100% almonds without added junk
I've used both of this its great tasting stuff, a quick stir and it ready to go.
Rly good product, taste is very rich.
Amazing tastes great can have with porridge protein pancakes and
one of my favorite butters for making bulking bars
I've been buying Myprotein's butters for ages but I tried myprotein almond butter as it's significantly cheaper. I was blown away by how much better the myprotein butter tasted! There's no added salt (like Meridian) so it's healthier too. If you love almond butter or just want to try some then definitely buy this! I haven't tried the crunchy version.Goes Well With:Rice crackers, chicken, shakes, carrot & celery sticks.
I have tried just about every butter of this kind there is including the big named brands and none of them can touch MYPROTEIN. Both smooth and crunchy are great. I find it hard to choose when ordering so just order both lolGoes Well With:Porridge,yoghurt,bananas,apples
This is AMAZING with pretty much any fruit. Sliced apple or pear are my favourite accompaniments so far. I have the smooth one and can't wait to try the crunchy one next.Goes Well With:Any fruit!
The best butter of this kind I ever tried. Wonderful taste and keto friendly. Just had to stir it a bit when it arrived, but that's normal for all the nut butters.
Top quality product! Can be eaten with a range of foods. I've tried both crunchy and smooth and they are both amazing! Definitely recommend this product.
My son recommended this because his children love it and it's healthy.I tried it and think it is a superb product and the service is first class.Thankyou.Goes Well With:porridge,honey
I bought it based on the reviews and I wasn't disappointed. Not being a big fan of almonds, I have to say that this product is excellent, with a strong nutty taste and great texture. It has become a morning staple and I put it on crackers with jam, oatmeal, pancakes, etc. I don't go a day without eating it. No addes oil, no sugar, healthy and big versatility. Strongly suggested, even better than PB.
I ordered this Butter for the fourth time as it's so delicious and simply just a great snack on its own or with bananas, apples on pancakes or anything really! It also makes a great preworkout snack!Goes Well With:Bananas, Apples, On its Own, Pancakes etc
The best amond butter I've tasted. Great product, I will buy it again.
Fantastic product tastes great mixed with the mp chocolate whey protein and mp oats made as a porridgeGoes Well With:Mp whey and mp oats
I thought I'd try this as an alternative to peanut butter (Whole Earth). Wasn't really sure what I was expecting....but it's certainly wet. I have to remix every time I open the box, which is fine, if not a little gross looking. For my personal taste, it's too sloppy. I expected something a bit thicker which wouldn't run off of a spoon. On the other hand, the sloppiness prevents me from eating it half a jar at a time as it's so rich...so, bonus in that respect? Overall: not a bad product, just not what I was expecting.Goes Well With:A spoon.
I say the best 'plain' because of course chocolate coconut toffee vanilla butter is heavenly, but that stuff is lethal! If you're looking for a healthy fat with NOTHING added, this is the AB for you. It's my favourite, 10 times better than bulk powders! Goes Well With:fruit, veg (raw carrot & cucumber), rice cakes, porridge, cottage cheese, greek yoghurt!
This is the best plain butter I have come across. I love the crunchy version, however this does not mix as well as smooth into (you guessed it...) smoothies! Which is why I gave it 4 for mixability. I do like the small jars from meridian but this is much more cost effective. So much better than the a.butter from bulk powders which is made from blanched almonds. Always go for myprotein!Goes Well With:EVERYTHING. Veg, fruit, rice cakes, cottage cheese. Just bang on some AB!
I really liked the stuff until I bit into a black pebble that was in it. The pebble was like a black kind of roughish thing that was kind of small in size.Goes Well With:Gravel and mortar
Excellent tasting butter in a nice big tub. A🌟Goes Well With:Toast, crackers, bread
