B.C. Film Commission budget cut by 23 percent
In the 2010 B.C. provincial budget introduced today, the estimates for the B.C. Ministry of Tourism, Culture, and the Arts included a 23 percent cut to the B.C. Film Commission.
Last year's appropriation (2009-2010) was $1,235,000. Next year's appropriation (2010-2011) is $948,000.
NDP arts and culture critic Spencer Herbert told the Straight that it doesn't make sense to cut the film commission's funding.
"The film industry has been struggling, obviously, given the government's endless delays on tax credits. Some industry estimates are $200 million in business because of that," Herbert said by phone from Victoria. "We can't afford to be cutting the film commission that does that work of landing projects here—which promotes our work here—with unemployment at the rate that it is."
The B.C. film industry has been facing a combination of several challenges, including a high exchange rate, the 2010 Winter Olympics, and tax credits that lagged behind other provinces. In June 2009, Ontario and Quebec announced an expansion of film industry tax credits to cover all production costs while B.C.'s tax credit program only covered labour expenses.
On February 3, Finance Minster Colin Hansen announced a new incentive package that included an increase Production Services Tax Credit (from 25 to 33 percent on labour costs for foreign productions), an increased Digital Animation or Visual Effects tax credit bonus (from 15 to 17.5 percent), and an increase of the qualified B.C. labour expenditures cap from 48 to 60 percent.
These tax credit changes became effective for productions starting principal photography after February 28.

Baseball Programs That I Highly Recommend
What are the Odds of Playing College Baseball
What are the Odds of Going on to Play College Baseball?
1 of every 10 high school baseball players will go on to play college baseball at some level. Whether it be D1, D2, D3, NAIA, or JUCO. That means if you are a high school baseball player, you have a 10% chance of playing college baseball.
You can look at this a few ways. You can assume that out of a team of 20 high school baseball players, two of them will play in college. This is not necessarily true though. Some high school baseball programs are better than others and may have several of their players go on to play in college while others may have none.
If you are a high school baseball player worrying about going to play in college, good! It is almost a necessity t

I'm looking for experiences with 3x6 showers without a door or curtain in place. Is this possible? |

- Posted by sjhockeyfan (My Page) on Tue, Nov 12, 13 at 11:30
We had one in our previous home. It worked fine (not a lot of water ended up outside the shower), but I was always cold. When we remodeled, we added a door. |
- Posted by nycbluedevil (My Page) on Tue, Nov 12, 13 at 19:16
I am a total fan of open showers and have encouraged several doubters here to go for it. But sorry, with a three foot width, I think you can't do it unless you put in a panel covering around half the six foot length. And even then, I think it will work only if you do a rain head that pours the water straight down on you rather than a wall-mounted regular shower head. |
- Posted by sjhockeyfan (My Page) on Tue, Nov 12, 13 at 21:42
As I said, we had. 3' wide shower, and we had two very regular and very strong shower heads and had no problem with splashing. One shower head faced away from the opening, and one was on a perpendicular wall |

Marburg's variant multiple sclerosis
Marburg's variant of multiple sclerosis, also known as Marburg multiple sclerosis or acute fulminant multiple sclerosis, is considered one of the multiple sclerosis borderline diseases, which is a collection of diseases classified by some as MS variants and by others as different diseases. Other diseases in this group are Neuromyelitis optica (NMO), Balo concentric sclerosis, and Schilder's disease.[1] The graver course is one form of malignant multiple sclerosis, with patients who reaching a significant level of disability in less than 5 years from their first symptoms, often in a matter of months.[2]
It took its name from Otto Marburg. It can be diagnosed in vivo with an MRI scan.[3] If Marburg Disease occurs in the form of a single large lesion, it can be radialogically indistinguishable from a brain tumor or abscess. In such cases, craniotomy and biopsy is needed to exclude other pathologies.[4] It is usually lethal, but it has been found to be responsive to Mitoxantrone[5] and Alemtuzumab,[6] and it has also been responsive to autologous stem cell transplantation.[7] Recently it has been shown that it presents a heterogeneous response to medication, as does standard MS.[8]
Currently, Marburg MS is considered a synonym for Tumefactive MS.[9]
Marburg variant of MS is an acute fulminant demyelinating process which in most cases progresses inexorably to death within 1–2 years.[10] However, threre are some reports of Marburg MS reaching stability by 3 years and hence there is some possibly of lng survival and clinical stability in such patients.[11]

The Oscar-winning film-maker Sir Peter Jackson has been admitted to hospital in New Zealand for surgery that will further delay filming of his forthcoming two-part adaptation of JRR Tolkien's fantasy tale The Hobbit.
- The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey
- Production year: 2011
- Country: Rest of the world
- Cert (UK): 12A
- Runtime: 169 mins
- Directors: Peter Jackson
- Cast: Aidan Turner, Andy Serkis, Benedict Cumberbatch, Billy Connolly, Cate Blanchett, Christopher Lee, Elijah Wood, Evangeline Lilly, Hugo Weaving, Ian Holm, Ian McKellen, Lee Pace, Luke Evans, Martin Freeman, Orlando Bloom, Richard Armitage, Sir Ian McKellen, Stephen Fry
Jackson complained of acute stomach pains earlier this week, which were diagnosed as a perforated ulcer. His condition is not serious but his admission to the Wellington hospital yesterday is just the latest delay for a project which has been stymied by funding problems and a highly publicised industrial dispute.
The shoot was planned to start in mid-February but will now have to wait until Jackson has made a full recovery from his operation. The Hobbit is the prequel project to the New Zealander's Lord of the Rings trilogy, which drove all before it at the global box office between 2001 and 2003.
Melissa Booth, Jackson's publicist, said: "Sir Peter is currently resting comfortably and his doctors expect him to make a full recovery. The surgery is not expected to impact on his directing commitment to The Hobbit beyond a slight delay to the start of filming."
Guillermo Del Toro, who was originally set to direct the two films, dropped out last year after ongoing financial travails at studio MGM caused long delays in shooting. Jackson, 49, then stepped up to direct from a producing and writing role, but was almost immediately faced with a union boycott over pay and conditions that was only resolved after the New Zealand government stepped in to reassure Hollywood executives with financial concessions.
The two films are currently scheduled for release in December 2012 and December 2013 respectively. Ian McKellen and Andy Serkis recently confirmed they will reprise their roles as Gandalf and Gollum, with Martin Freeman set to play Bilbo Baggins, the titular hero.

.- A well-known abortionist was charged Thursday with violating Kansas law on late-term abortion procedures.
Attorney General Paul Morrison filed 19 misdemeanor counts, alleging that Dr. George Tiller got second opinions from a doctor who was not financially and legally independent from him, as the law requires.
At a news conference Thursday, Morrison described the allegations as a "technical violation" of a 1998 law restricting late-term procedures.
The abortions in question involved cases in which patients were more than 21 weeks pregnant and the fetuses were able to survive outside the womb. Under such circumstances, Kansas law requires two independent doctors to conclude that if the pregnancy continues, the mother-to-be will face death or "substantial and irreversible" harm to "a major bodily function," which has been interpreted to include mental health.
Morrison said Tiller listed the second doctor as Ann Kristin Neuhaus. Morrison said they had a financial relationship but did not elaborate.
If convicted, Tiller could be sentenced to up to one year in jail and a $2,500 fine on each charge.
Tiller's attorneys issued a written statement declaring their client's innocence. "Today's announcement simply involves a difference of opinion between lawyers regarding unusual technicalities in Kansas abortion law procedure," the statement said.

will DirecTV ever improve the picture quality on the SD channels?

So if you are watching a channel that is on a transponder that has a number of other channels all carrying high activity programming (such as sports), you will see more symptoms of compression than if every channel had talking heads.
Posted 13 September 2006 - 10:05 PM
Yes, but there is a certain range each individual channel falls into.The amount of channel compression is dynamic, constantly changing based on what is actually being shown on each of the channels that are being multiplexed onto that transponder.
Posted 13 September 2006 - 11:33 PM
As your screen gets larger, your SD picture will get worse. SD is SD. Although SD digital is better than SD analog.I had a 36 inch before my 51 inch and the sd pq on the 36 inch was much better. What I have noticed since I got the 51 inch is the difference in pq from channel to channel. For example my pq on the NFL Network is really bad, same with A & E. ESPN, SciFi and Discovery are pretty good. So does this mean that D compresses some channels more than others or is it just diffs in the source feed?

The other consideration in this is the monthly cost for the STB with digital cable. My local cable costs about twice what D* costs for each STB. So if you are only looking at one, or possibly two, tv locations, it isn't that big an issue. If you are looking at multiple, the cost adds up.
Right now, I've got 3 DVR's and 1 standard receiver. Cable would be $20 a month higher than D* just for the number of STB's - and they wouldn't all be DVRs either.
When I switched (back) to D*, my local cable was not all digital. They have since implemented all digital with analog simulcast (so you can still get analog without an STB if you want).
My cables SD STB with DVR is $6. I think it's like $4 for a non-dvr box. So it's comparable to Directv.
However, like a said, the analog cable looks about as good as D* on a 27 inch TV. So I only have a digital box in the living room. In any other rooms it's just analog on a 27 inch or smaller (Free, no STB needed). Honestly, I could live without any of the channels in the digital package. All I miss having in other rooms is the HBOs.

Hello!! I am in the beginning stages of thinking about building a home. We have 10 acres in the country in Tennessee. I want a simple home, easy to upkeep, open greatroom, dining and kitchen with some rustic elements: brick floors, rustic beams, pecky cypress, etc. Any feedback on this plan? Thanks in advance, Scoobyruby http://houseplans.southernliving.com/plans/sl593 |
Follow-Up Postings:
i've always liked this plan too love the room sizes and the main house is sort of cabinish it might be sort of expensive to build couldn't talk my husband into "two buildings" |
It is easier for people if some of the images are included in the thread. |

I too have loved this plan since I first saw it, for a vacation home in the Keys maybe, or a summer retreat for the barrier islands off the Carolinas. But for a year round home in Tennessee I think that it would be a bit chilly to have the master and the guest quarters separated from the main living area by nothing more than breezeways and porches. |
I drive past this house almost every day taking the kids to school - I've never been inside but the exterior is adorable. I know someone who worked for the former owners and she loved the interior layout. It looks like they made a few minor changes but it's the same floorplan as the one in the OP. Don't know where you are in TN but this is in Smyrna, about 30 miles outside Nashville and you could probably build it for $100/sq ft. |

Thank you so much for posting the pics, Dekeoboe!! I used to post on the decorating forum but have forgotten how to post pics. My DH thinks the roof lines would increase the cost too much so he has found this plan. I'm going to link and then figure out how to post pics!! Any thoughts on this plan are so appreciated. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Farmhouse Revival
Scooby - I love the exterior of that house, but other than the Master bath, the interior isn't doing a thing for me. The layout is really awkward. Sorry! |
I am partial to both plans as I must admit to being a sucker for porches and subscribing to SL. On the "Cottage of the Year" I prefer the gabled main roof version in the real estate listing. I agree with lmcarly that something about the interior of the "Farmhouse" seems a bit odd -- those quirks make more sense in a remodel (which I believe that was) than when you're starting new. I'm a big fan of work by the Historical Concepts firm generally though. |
- Posted by lazygardens (My Page) on Sat, Mar 1, 14 at 9:18
The upstairs bath bothers me ... you have the tub and toilet in the same compartment. I'd make that area smaller, as a bath-only area, and have two "powder rooms". The pavilion style is trendy, but you drive up heating, cooling and construction costs because of the extra wall area. |

Data Safety Monitoring Plan (DSMP)
In May of 2001 the National Advisory Research Resources Council adopted the "Recommendation to GCRC's for Patient Safety in Clinical Research" This document outlined the requirement that each protocol submitted to the GCRC have a data safety monitoring plan (DSMP) in place. Four elements of a DSMP are required:
- Adverse events must be graded for severity
- A plan for reporting adverse events must be in place
- A plan for annual reporting of adverse events must be in place, and
- A plan for safety review(by whom and at what frequency must be established).
Under some circumstances a data safety monitoring board (DSMB) may be required. This might include, but not be limited to:
Phase III randomized controlled trials,
Trials within which blinding to medication administration is present, or
Protocols perceived as having particularly high risk to human subjects.
It will be the GCRC Scientific Advisory Committee that will determine the need for safety evaluations beyond the need for a data safety and monitoring plan.
To assist investigators in meeting this requirement the Research Subject Advocacy office has created draft language that may be used by investigators to describe the operation of a data safety monitoring plan that meets current requirements. Investigators should feel free to include this draft language in their protocols if it meets any additional requirements unique to the study. The principal investigator is free to create an alternate DSMP as long as it includes the required 4 elements noted above. As a reminder, all of the reporting processes included in this description (UVM/FAHC CHRMS Adverse Event. and the Safety Alert for Events (SAFE) reporting systems are already in place and apply to ongoing research even if the protocol has not specifically stated a DSMP.

Finally a correction...
Verified Purchase
Finally a correction tape that you can count on. This is the first of its kind
that I have had no problems with, the first to be able to use the full reel of
tape. I have had no problems with it twisting, unwinding, or simply not working.
It is the first that is easy to guide and comes out with ease. I was expecting
the worst (or at least the same as the others I have used, which happens to be
many) and was delivered the best. The tape stays down and holds up well writing
over it. I have not tried pencil but all types, brands, styles, colors, and
sizes of pen, have been no problem.
If you use correction tape then you will not want to wait any longer before ordering this product. I can assure you there is non-other like it on the market (at least in the US) I have tried every style from the leading brands as well as all of the generic office supply store brands, and obviously I have tried all of the other brands jet pens offers. I will say it is not as cute as the birdie but it works much better. 4 people found this helpful

This is the best correction...
Verified Purchase
This is the best correction tape dispenser that I have ever used. The head
pivots from side to side and this helps to put down the tape without any breaks
even when the dispenser is not completely parallel to the surface. The tape
itself is also good and it is easy to write on it using any kid of a pen/pencil.
It is a little large compared to most other correction tape dispensers but it
works in its favour as it is easier to hold and use.

Did you read about Herbal-Supplement Scam: Tests Reveal Fake and Dangerous Ingredients According to YAHOO SHINE OF NOV 4, 2013? "Findings of a recent study, using DNA analysis, suggest that many plant-based remedies on the market today may be made of cheap fillers, such as soy, rice, and wheat, or contain weeds or potentially harmful contaminants." Many of the herbal capsules that people purchased in drug stores and online are "contaminated with plant species not listed on the ingredients list, including some that were considered toxic or allergy producing, as well as other potentially hazardous substances". In a 2010 study A lot of the vitamins, etc. tested positive for hazardous substances such as lead, cadmium, mercury, arsenic, and pesticides.
Speaking of which, I used to have a booth at the farmers market next to a man about 10 years older than myself. He told me that he adds arsenic to his fertilizer when planting his produce. This man was not an uneducated person by any means. His real job was working at a newspaper company as the lead graphic artist.
People love to complain about the FDA sticking its' nose into food and farming operations. But if you are observant, you'll be able to see why. Not everyone has the same sanitation and safety codes when they grow and harvest their produce, herbs, animals, what have you. It can be years before the FDA receives enough complaints to take action. And adverse reactions are shockingly underreported.
According to this article, you can also look for a "USP Verified" label, which means the manufacturer has voluntarily asked the U.S. Pharmacopeial Convention, a nonprofit organization that sets industry standards for medicines, food ingredients, and dietary supplements, to test the quality of its product.
When it comes to botanicals, quality control is difficult and all the more reason to sell them in the most natural state possible.
I'm seeing some people selling their herbs in vegi capsules and really wonder why anyone would purchase herbs this way from an herbalist. It seems to me that there is too much handling of the herb involved. Where do these people get the vegi capsules from in the first place? Are they making them, themselves? Then, how do these people fill these capsules? Are they wearing gloves? Hair nets? What about their equipment? And can they offer a USP Verified label? At least for the most part, companies who make and sell the herb and vitamin supplements have to follow sanitation codes, thanks to the FDA. However, an herbalist working out of their home, doesn't. This is something to really think on. Herbalist should be way above companies that are selling their vitamins and herbs in unsanitary conditions and using fillers in their products. People rely on us to provide the best and that's what we should be doing.

I have vinyl sheeting, transitioning to stained concrete. It is an even transition but I need something to finsh off. Any suggestions? Definitely NOT those junky metal strips, but I don't know what to use. Anything I see that is considered a transition strip has some type of height from one area to the other.Do I just stain and glue a thin strip of wood? Thanks for input or suggestions. |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by hollysprings (My Page) on Sat, Aug 18, 12 at 13:18
A thin piece of stainless, copper, or brass could be custom manufactured to cover the cut edge of the vinyl, but it would still need to have holes in it to be fastened down to the floor. That wouldn't leave it looking much different than a traditional metal transition piece. A thin piece of wood wouldn't have enough structural integrity to hold up under foot traffic. It would need to be a much thicker, traditional threshold to stand up. There are always marble saddles that are more typically used in a bath situation. You will have to be the judge on the aesthetics here, but you do need some type of strip to hold down the edge of the vinyl. It will be a trip hazard if it works loose. |

Rick Sammon on photography, from A to Z
You can find art all over town -- not just on gallery walls. In this series, we'll be looking at some of the local artists who serve up their work in coffeehouses and other non-gallery businesses around town.Rick Sammon A Rick Sammon original.
The Godfather has an offer you can't refuse. Actually, that's the Colorado Photography Learning Group, which is bringing award-winning photographer Rick Sammon -- officially known as the Canon Explorer of Light and unofficially as The Godfather -- to the University of Denver's Davis Auditorium on Saturday, August 2 for "A Day With Rick Sammon," a photography workshop that will only set you back $10. If you're a local artist who hangs (or aspires to hang!) your work around town, this is a great chance to advance your skills.
See also:
Sammon, who started his professional career as an underwater photographer and currently writes the "Quick Fix" column for Digital Photo Magazine, divides his time between creating art and leading photography workshops, and his enthusiasm for digital imaging is often contagious. A self-taught photographer who has been in the industry for nearly forty years, New York-based Sammon hesitates to categorize his work. "I'm an A-to-Z type of photographer," he says. "I do it all, and I enjoy the freedom of not specializing."Rick Sammon Award-winning photographer and speaker Rick Sammon in action.
During his August 2 session, Sammon will provide practical, how-to advice for amateurs and professionals alike. The day will begin with Sammon sharing his photographs of people, wildlife and landscapes from around the globe, illustrating the difference between taking pictures and making pictures. With each image, Sammon will shares a technique, digital darkroom tip or personal photo philosophy. Rick Sammon Sammon captures animals in their natural habitat.
Don't worry: This workshop isn't merely a slide show of pretty images. Sammon will also cover seeing the light, controlling the light, playing with the light, HDR photography and some composition techniques. And he'll share some of his favorite Lightroom and Photoshop enhancement tips.

I am playing Alistar alot. So i did last few minutes. And I just saw that his W (Headbutt ) doesnt stun anymore. First i thought it was remaked, then i saw that ability says that it stuns the target. Now i checked the patch notes again and nothing about Alistar. So...i am pretty sure it was working last few days. And i am pretty sure it didnt worked last 2 hours. So, i think it is a bug. Anyone else experienced this already? Maybe a Red can enlighten me on this issue.
Confirmed after a bot game. Alistar W doesnt stun anymore. Since there is no announsement, i consider this as a BUG
Junior Member
dat spelling doe.
Senior Member
as long as i've played there has never been an official stun on the bull's headbutt. It's always just immobilized you for as long as you would have normally been in the air if you ran into a wall or something.
@Odentay This is not true. Even the text of the ability says that it stuns the target. @the1337prodigy ? So the most important thing of my post is my spelling? Grow up pls, i am looking for help for an issue, not some grammar lessons.
@Bugog Exactly. And since i've used that combo quite alot i can say for sure, it's not working the same way as wednesday

The Ups And Downs Of The ARC
For 27 years, the Annual Report Card has surveyed vendors' solution providers for their opinions on their partners. Solution providers offer a good barometer on how these vendors treat partners, as well as how their products stack up. While some vendors take the ARC comments and ratings to heart, and strive to improve areas that received criticism, others are not so responsive.
Following are five vendors that fell from their solution providers' good graces, and five that did their homework. Here are the biggest declines and improvements in 2012.

Editorial: Respectful request

Our View
The Craig Chamber of Commerce's stance on State of the County is exclusionary and removes local residents who don't pay for a ticket from their rights to hear elected leaders speak on public affairs. The Craig City Council and Moffat County Commission would be serving their constituents' interests by lobbying the Chamber to revise this policy.
The Craig Chamber of Commerce did a masterful job last year of landing Gov. John Hickenlooper as keynote speaker at its annual State of the County event.
The governor lived up to billing by providing an insightful and at times humorous speech before an audience at the Holiday Inn of Craig.
Booking noteworthy speakers appears to be a budding tradition for the Chamber: the keynote speaker at this year's event, scheduled for Feb. 24 also at the Holiday Inn, is State Sen. Jean White, R-Hayden, who represents the Eighth Senate District.
State of the County, which also includes speakers from a variety of local organizations and offices, is an engagement often overlooked in our community.
While it doesn't offer the freewheeling fun of more notable events, it nonetheless provides taxpayers and business owners with good information from the people tasked with overseeing public affairs.
However, there's a hitch with this informative and important gathering.
Last year, the Chamber unveiled a new policy regarding State of the County: anyone wishing to hear the speakers only was required to buy a ticket.
That means $40 for Chamber members and $50 for non-members. This eliminated a standing policy of allowing anyone who just wanted to hear the speakers to stand in the back and avoid paying for a seat and a meal.
At first glance, this doesn't appear to be problematic, and if the event didn't typically include a quorum of Craig City Council and Moffat County Commission members, the editorial board probably wouldn't be raising an issue with it today.
But, given the council and commission will likely have 2/3s of its members in attendance, which could be interpreted as an open meeting, the editorial board believes the Chamber should revise its admittance policy.
The board isn't asking the Chamber to give up free meals or a seat at State of the County, but simply let anyone interested be a fly on the wall and hear what their elected leaders have to say about public affairs.
What's the harm in that? No one is losing money and it's a token of goodwill to the community.
The editorial board respectfully requests the Chamber reconsider its admittance stance. We also encourage county commission and city council members lobby the Chamber to do the same.
Should the economic development organization stick with its stance, we'd ask commissioners and councilors make a statement to their taxpaying public by sitting out the event.
As we all know, these are lean economic times. Businesses are hurting, and people are hurting.
It's not too much to ask that residents out there who may have fallen on hard economic times but still want to be politically engaged be allowed to attend without spending $40 or $50 they may not have.
This issue arose last year, and the Craig Daily Press didn't get far in encouraging the Chamber or elected leaders to revise the admittance policy, which is truly a shame considering the governor's speech.
The Chamber has advertised the event as "your opportunity to hear what your tax dollars and elected officials did in 2011 and what they expect in 2012." In that regard, everyone's goals seem to be aligned.
The real question is whether everyone — rich, poor or otherwise — will be afforded that opportunity.

Kudos to the editorial board for standing up and taking this position.
Sam Relaford 2 years, 11 months ago
I'm curious why the CCC would have a problem with the community wanting to listen to what they have to say? Are the plotting something scandolous that most of the public would take exception too? Maybe they feel that they are so important that people should happily hand over money to be in the same room with them?? If I were on the board I would stand on a soap box and shout to the public on whats happening and where our community stands on issues. BTW... I wouldn't even think about joining anything political in this valley. NO THANK YOU!
Cole White 2 years, 11 months ago
While at first glance the editorial board does make a good point, but upon further review however I find myself having to somewhat disagree with their argument.
Their position that city council members or county officials gathered in one place constitute a public quorum and a public meeting insults all of our intelligence. Does this mean IF the "official" number to constitute a quorum is at a basketball game then the school has to let people in for free out of the auspicious chance that they may talk city business? Or if fiver our more attend Diamonds and Spurs that the rotarycClub has to let people come and be wall flowers for free if they don't eat the dinner or dance? Or if two County Commissioners are at the Kiwanis play then they have to be let in for free?
This is a CCC event that costs them money to host at the Holiday Inn or any other venue they would choose to host it at. It takes time, money, and effort for them to plan. If they open it up to anyone without a cover charge then eventually no one will pay and then who will cover the cost? The Craig Daily Press? I put it to the Press to host their own State of the County and State of the City event and not charge for it. Let the Press put in the time and effort at their own expense. Lastly, everyone in the county and city has equal access to their elected officials. They can go to the city council meeting or the county commissioners meeting each week at no cost. They can hear their elected officials speak and get their concerns addressed in those public venues. I think if they want to attend the CCC sponsored event they should have to pay for it. Or, they can go get a free Craig Daily Press paper after the event and read what was said.

This part of the Sunshine Law -- The Colorado Sunshine Law generally requires that any state or local governmental body that meets to discuss public business or to take formal action do so in meetings that are open to the public. Under the law (§ 24-6-402, C.R.S.), "meeting" refers to any kind of gathering, convened to discuss public business, whether in person, by telephone, electronically, or by other means of communication. Electronic mail messages can be considered "meetings" under the statute. The statute does not apply to chance meetings or social occasions where public business is not the central purpose of the meeting.
TiredofSSDD 2 years, 11 months ago
The director of the Chambers says this is actually the Annual Meeting of the Chamber, but it as grown to include other presentations from the City and County, and others. Does this mean that past dinners and presentations were in violation of the Sunshine Laws? There needs to be some clarification.

Thank you! This is very exciting for me. Since this morning I've been able to release 2 more and if I'm right, that makes 2 males and 1 female. I have 4 left so I'm hoping for a couple more days of this! Certainly breaks the monotony of writing papers. |
Beautiful female! How exciting! Even after 5 years, and probably 150 releases this year so far (don't know the exact count), it is still exciting. It does add a nice vibe to the day. I sure love my Monarch babies! |

4 males and 2 females! Still one chrysalis that I have suspected may not make it. Its had a single dark blotch near the top for a week now and is still a milky green color despite all of its siblings having flown the coop already. Guess I'll give it a couple more days to see what happens... |
Yes give it a couple more days, esp. if it is still green. I've had several eclose this season that a dark splotch on the chrysalis and they eclosed just fine. I determined the dark splotches were chrysalis damage that occurred during pupation, because they were jostled by other butterflies that were eclosing on the same day. (My Monarchs all pupate on the roof of a largish pop-up enclosure). After I figured that out I now move all the chrysalises that are darkening into a smaller pop up enclosure where they can emerge and not disturb their neighbors who are pupating. |

With summer drawing to a close, people across the country are looking ahead and planning their next vacation. However, for those who are living with gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, planning for a vacation may bring back some anxious memories from summer about feeling uncomfortable in a bathing suit or other warm-weather clothing. A recent survey revealed that more than half of Americans who have experienced GI symptoms agree that wardrobe changes or adjustments may be needed to accommodate discomfort or pain associated with these symptoms.
(BPT) - GI symptoms can include diarrhea, gas, bloating, stomach pain, frequent bowel movements, unexplained weight loss or general stomach discomfort. Although these symptoms are fairly common, they can be very disruptive to peoples' lives. According to the survey, 73 percent of U.S. adults suffering from these GI symptoms struggle with feelings of frustration. So if you are dealing with frustration due to your GI symptoms, you are not alone. In fact, the person next to you right now may be feeling the very same way.
"Unfortunately, my GI symptoms sometimes keep me from enjoying my time at the pool or deter me from traveling longer distances to see family and friends," says Julie DeBois, a 28-year-old who suffers from exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI), a condition where the pancreas doesn't make or secrete enough digestive enzymes for digestion to take place.
Here are a few ideas from Dr. Roshini Rajapaska, gastroenterologist at NYU Medical Center/Tisch Hospital in New York City, author, and television personality, to help you feel more relaxed about your GI symptoms so that you can better enjoy your vacation.
Dr. Raj recommends:
- Nourishing your body.It's important for everyone to maintain a healthy diet, but it is especially vital for those who suffer from GI symptoms to pay extra attention to the foods and drinks they are consuming to prevent their symptoms from getting worse. The majority of the population agrees – 89 percent of U.S. adults think that an improper diet may impact GI symptoms. To avoid bloating and other GI symptoms that can contribute to discomfort and low self-esteem:
- Drink plenty of fluids throughout the day. If plain water doesn't satisfy you, flavor it with fresh fruit such as strawberries or mangoes. After you finish the water, you have a light, healthy snack to nibble on.
- Try to stick to a low-fat diet, which may help make your stools normal and can also help prevent abdominal pain. However, you will still need to include some healthy fats, such as avocados and nuts, in your diet to help your body absorb vitamins.
- Avoid a diet too high in fiber, which can lead to more gas in people with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency caused by chronic pancreatitis, and can contribute to fattier stools.
- When traveling to new places, plan ahead for digestive emergencies. You should pack a "backup plan" bag that includes the following: fast-acting medication (for gas, bloating, or diarrhea), pre-moistened travel wipes, a travel pack of toilet paper, an extra pair of underwear/bathing suit, your physician's phone number and/or email address, research on the closest bathroom to the area you will be occupying, healthy snacks and water, and anything that will help keep your mind off of your GI symptoms, such as magazines, books, or music.
- Relieving stress and exercising. Eighty-three percent of U.S. adults agree that GI symptoms may become more pronounced when a person is under stress, and a healthy, productive way to relieve stress is to exercise. Exercise not only relieves stress, but it also encourages normal contractions of your intestines and can help you feel better.
- Most importantly… talk to your doctor. More than half of U.S. adults have not spoken to their primary care doctor about their GI discomfort, as they do not realize that there are treatments and lifestyle modifications that could help control symptoms. It is important to work together with your physician to implement a treatment plan to feel your best at home and while traveling.

Instagram to expand advertising
Comment on this storySan Francisco - Facebook's photo-sharing application Instagram will add advertising in Canada, the UK and Australia later this year as chief executive Mark Zuckerberg seeks to generate more sales from mobile users.
The application, which Facebook acquired for about $700 million in 2012, started to gradually introduce advertising six months ago to avoid alienating its user base, which now includes more than 200 million members.
Facebook is aiming to make more money off its international users, which make up the majority of members.
Instagram ad sales will be a key part of Facebook's mobile strategy, which now includes several applications such as Messenger and Paper, and messaging program WhatsApp after the $19 billion acquisition closes.
"The results for advertisers have been positive -- and in some cases, well above the ad industry's average for performance," Facebook said in the blog post.
"We're excited to build on this momentum, and in the coming months we will extend the same level of care and consideration as we introduce ads on Instagram to our global community." - Bloomberg News

The storming of Badajoz was an epic action which involved Wellington's infantry in some of the most savage hand-to-hand fighting of the whole Peninsular War (1812). At appalling cost in a nightmare assault during the night of the 6 April 1812, Wellington's soldiers hacked their way over the bodies of their dead and wounded and through the huge medieval walls of the town. These were held with great tenacity, skill and courage by a resolute French and German garrison.… (more)

Waikiki Hotel Rentals(8)

Recent Waikiki Reviews
Very nice place to stay
This was a very comfortable and clean place to spend part of our time in Honolulu. Aaron and Deanna must travel a lot themselves because they know how to make the guests staying at their property feel very welcome and comfortable. They left little treats that we enjoyed with the coffee, hot chocolate and tea that was provided. The one time that I had to contact Deanna about coffee supplies, she responded very quickly and fulfilled my request promptly.
Having beach equipment available is a great bonus as we usually end up buying at least one beach chair and towel of our own while vacationing at Waikiki which we cannot take with us on our flight home. The hotel has a very nice pool/sundeck that we used frequently during our 4 day stay. We were so impressed with the room that we showed it to other friends and family that were in Honolulu at the same time.
We will definitely stay here again when we return to Honolulu.
Thank you for making this vacation rental available to us!
Tom and Karen
A great place to stay!
This condo had everything we needed to make breakfast, lunch and dinner when we chose to. Safeway was a 20 min. walk away and 2 ABC stores about 2 min. away, prices were definitely better at Safeway.
The A/C worked well and was quiet and with 2 elevators there was never a long wait. Wifi also worked well. The fridge is a little small but there really was enough space for the few groceries and drinks that we brought in. The freezer worked well and there were two ice machines in the building, one in the basement laundry room and one on the rooftop to get free ice.
It had a great, unobstructed view of the beach and Diamond Head from the lanai and the rooftop deck was a great place to sit and watch the sun go down while sipping a Pina Colada. It was exactly as the pictures showed, clean and fresh.
There were beach towels and 2 beach chairs, not too comfortable though... Boogie boards would have been fun to use but not provided. We brought a small foldable lunch cooler in our luggage and made picnic lunches to take with us.
Mornings were a bit noisy starting at about 6 am because of delivery trucks and garbage trucks and there was always a bit of road noise when the doors were open but the view more than made up for it. We were up and about early anyway not wanting to waste a minute of our short vacation. That early I could see people taking flash pictures on top of Diamond Head :)
The condo is very close to buses (2-3 min. walk) which we used to go to Pearl Harbour (~1hr 20min), Hanauma Bay (~40 min.) and Diamond Head (10 min.) We did rent a car one day and found free parking at the Waikiki Shell parking lot on Montserrat Ave which is just a 5-7 min. walk to the condo.
Our favourite restaurant was Shorebird in the Outrigger Reef Hotel, 20 min. walk. We had pancakes at Teddy's on the 1st floor of the building one morning, HUGE portions and tasty.
Alexei emailed us a couple of times to make sure all was well and had refunded our damage deposit before we even reached the airport to fly out!
We would definitely recommend this condo and would love to go back again!

Perfect place to stay while on vacation
The hotel condo is exactly how you see it in pictures. The room was clean and very comfortable. The location is great (right next to Ala Moana Mall) and a 20 minute walk to Waikiki beach. We will definitely stay here again.
Roger, thank you for being so prompt in your responses to my questions and for being so helpful.

Franco-German Relations & Neanderthals
By Ben Kieffer
50 years ago the French and Germans signed the Élysée Treaty, which ended centuries of hostile rivalry between the two nations, ushering in a new era of cooperation and friendship. Host Ben Kieffer discuss Franco-German relations in the 21st Century with French Ambassador to the United States François M. Delattre and German Ambassador to the United States Peter Ammon. Then, Robert Franciscus, professor of anthropology at the UI, explains new findings hinting that Neanderthals did not co-exist with humans as previously thought.


text: Bayard Rustin was a civil rights activist, and the main organizer of the 1963 March on Washington. He offers his interpretation of the historical meanings of the March on Washington and the Civil Rights Act of 1965. He comments on the link between the civil rights and anti-war movements, and elucidates the debates within those movements over whether or not they should be linked. Mr. Rustin discusses the attempted marginalization of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. by various civil rights groups opposed to his anti-war stance on political grounds, and the role of the media on the radicalization of the civil rights movement.
