QR codes are so 2011, but one creative company is using them to separate itself from the horde of video-management and marketing solutions.
Thwapr, a network providing brands the ability to upload, disseminate and manage videos for mobile-device distribution, has announced that it will now automatically generate quick response (QR) codes for each video uploaded into the Thwapr platform.
The automatic QR generator is part of Thwapr's new content management dashboard, which provides a fast option for marketers to upload and manage videos for mobile device distribution. Furthermore, the dashboard includes tracking and measurement data of mobile video and SMS analytics.
"Marketers are rapidly adopting the use of QR codes across multiple channels such as print, online and outdoor," says Bruce Goldstein, CEO, Thwapr. "They need a coordinated process and solution that delivers an optimized user experience. We can help them quickly harness the growing usage of QR codes and when coupled with the delivery of high-quality branded video, it results in lower costs and higher engagement on thousands of different devices."

Ilex "Sky pencil" vs. Euonymus "Green Spire"
RE: Ilex "Sky pencil" vs. Euonymus "Green Spire"
Has anyone grown these plants? Did you have a preference for one over the other?
I was looking for a narrow but tallish plant to plant as a privacy screen in a small area. Both will grow well in my zone (7b). They seem very similar in habit and I like both. Just wondering if others have had experience with each plant.
I have a sky pencil holly in zone 8b and in southern facing sun. It seems to do really well there. Not sure if there are different types of them that fit different climates. Mine seems pretty tolerant of low water conditions too.
It will throw up shoots though as it grows in height which if you are looking for a formal look may look a bit scraggly.
Not familiar at all with the other.
IME, Euonymus 'Green Spire' has some long term issues in the PNW. While I think the plant is extremely attractive and very useful as a narrow profiled accent shrub, it often experiences significant dieback from a fungal pathogen, Oidium euonymus japonici, which occurs only on Euonymus japonicus cultivars. The result is rather unattractive unless pruned out and then you are left with holes in the plant and an uneven form. I have also seen the plant die outright from this problem. Also, the upward sweep of its branching sometimes relaxes and you get odd, directional growth that detracts from the columnar form and needs to be removed.
'Sky Pencil' has proven to be a very reliable plant here but with a narrower profile than the euonymus and a slower growth rate.
I have the Euonymus "Green Spire" and haven't been impressed with it. I've definitely gotten the "odd directional" growth that I've had to prune off, and I've found that altho it lives with little water, it doesn't like it.
Irregular watering creates "bare stem" areas on the branches. They don't fill in when it gets water, the euonymus just puts on a growth spurt so you have this silly segmented look:
Thank you for the replies which convinced me that the Ilex Sky pencil was the way to go.
A local nursery was having a 25% off sale today and lo and behold they had several of the Ilex 'Sky pencil' so I ran down after work, bought eight, and planted them tonight. ( I know, worse time of year to plant...) I have alternated them with Nandina 'Gulf Stream' along a 4' high chain link fence and am pleased already at how the plants contrast each other.
They face west and get midday sun from overhead roughly 1130 to 430 pm. There is an existing sprinkler system although it's just as easy to hand water the row.
Thanks again for the thoughtful answers.

WASHINGTON — Television's Rep. Francis Underwood's season one introduction to "House of Cards" explains his view of America's capital city: "Give and take. Welcome to Washington." But the show's portrayal of real-life D.C. politics has a far murkier side than most Capitol Hill staffers and D.C. workers say even the most power-consumed ever descend into.

Although it is well established that exercise aids in the prevention of disease, recent surveys suggest that many Americans do not engage in regular physical activity. The present experiment examined one possible technique for increasing regular exercise, in sedentary college students. Previous studies had shown that students who are directed to think about action strategies that would increase studying subsequently report greater intentions to study. The present experiment found that directed thinking about actions to increase a target exercise significantly increased time spent on exercising and cardiovascular fitness. The results are discussed in terms of theoretical perspectives on attitude processes.

Rushing: D. Dasher (MTU) - 20 CAR, 96 YDS
Receiving: T. Henry (MTU) - 3 REC, 71 YDS, 2 TD
MURFREESBORO, Tenn. (AP) -- Taron Henry caught two touchdown passes to lead Middle Tennessee to a 24-7 victory over Arkansas State on Saturday.
The Blue Raiders' defense also landed a touchdown as Rod Isaac returned a fumble 42 yards on Arkansas State's opening possession of the game.
Middle Tennessee's defense set a school record with nine quarterback sacks. The defense allowed a season-low 138 yards against Arkansas State (3-4, 1-2) and forced four turnovers. Arkansas State rushed for just 22 yards on 33 carries.
Middle Tennessee (3-5, 2-1) rolled to 384 yards on offense with Dwight Dasher and Joe Craddock each throwing a touchdown pass and combining for 179 yards through the air.
After a 7-0 lead, Dasher led an 80-yard drive, throwing a 17-yard touchdown pass to Henry. The team added a 38-yard field goal to extend the lead to 17-0.
Arkansas State answered with its only sustained drive of the day and Corey Leonard threw a 6-yard touchdown to Danny McNeal. Craddock, who played in his first game after suffering a back injury, spelled Dasher, who was injured, and threw a 52-yard scoring pass to Henry with 9:06 remaining.

"Great Opportunity to see Hospitals in a different light "

- Work/Life Balance
- Senior Management

- Career Opportunities
I worked at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia as an intern (less than a year)
I met many different doctors and patients from all different walks of life. I enjoyed seeing how a Hospital is maintained and run, instead of just seeing it as a place for treatment. I met many great coworkers that inspired me to look beyond medicine as just helping a patient, but rather healing and keeping up with a patients health even beyond a patient's discharge.
I think scheduling and acquiring information to and from HR took too long and caused more problems than it should have. If papers and the entire outlook on what we were doing were stated in the very beginning, their would be less applicants and more applicants that actually enjoyed and wanted to learn the business and or patient care of this hospital system.
I would hope that HR would be more efficient and timely when dealing with our applications. I understand they have many things to get done as do the students themselves. I would also suggest taking more time to see if this internship is important and relevant to a student's academic major and or career path.

Hi Max, it is cool thing!! Very innovative thinking...should be very useful while doing small experiments. Instead of getting bored with simulating a circuit, it would be easier to take print of the circuit, buy the components from the local shop and perform the experiment. Cool!! I wonder what software "file" that is input to the printer? Do we have to draw the circuit traces on MS Word or Power Point...I guess that would be a bit tough. Is there a tool for it?

Debutant director Soundarya talks of directing her father in 'Kochadaiiyaan'
"Appa felt awkward when I directed the romantic sequences with Deepika (Padukone) in the movie," said debutant director Soundarya Rajinikanth Ashwin of 'Superstar' Rajinikanth's much-awaited 'Kochadaiiyaan,' at a press conference in the city on Friday.
"Every time I said 'cut', he would feel awkward I was directing him," she said, in response to a question on the experience of directing the legendary star in the film.
'Kochadaiiyaan' is being billed as the country's first full-length photo-realistic 3D performance capture feature film.
The magnum opus, apart from having Rajinikanth in multiple roles and paired with Deepika Padukone, will also have actors Sarath Kumar, Shobana and Nasser in important roles.
Legendary comedian Nagesh has also been resurrected as a synthespian for the role, by getting someone to imitate his body language and super-imposing the performance capture on a likeness of the actor who passed away in 2009.
'A bigger challenge'
To a question on how the task of performance capture for 'Kochadaiiyaan' was different from that in movies that have already used the technology — namely Avatar and Tintin — Soundarya said the task she had at hand was a lot tougher.
"With Avatar and Tintin, the makers were creating imaginary characters. The seven-feet Naavi or the cartoonish characters of Tintin did not have any real-life references and were completely imaginary," she said.
"However, the task we had at hand was a lot tougher. Appa's fans know his appearance inside out; they know his body language distinctly and know every scar he has. So, re-creating an exact likeness of his real-life being was a huge challenge. Likewise, for everybody else… be it Shobana or Deepika. They will look exactly the same in their 3D animated version as they are in real life," said Soundarya.
The film's audio is slated for release on March 9, and the official release date will be announced very soon, she said.
"Such movies have a long production cycle. In Hollywood, such projects take seven to eight years to materialise. We have done this as fast as we could," she said.
Augmented reality app
Karbonn Mobiles, which has partnered with Kochadaiiyaan, has come up with special-edition smartphones to coincide with the film's release.
These phones, apart from sporting exclusive content from the film, will also feature an 'augmented reality' app that will feature small animations from the film, allow its users to play simple 'Kochadaiiyaan' games or even take photographs with the animated Rajinikanth character from the movie.
Sudhir Hasija, chairman, Karbonn Mobiles, said the augmented reality app the company has developed will be one of the most innovative ways in which a film has been promoted.
Keywords: Soundarya Rajinikanth Ashwin, Rajinikanth, Kochadaiiyaan

How can you tell when yarrow has shed pollen?
In Specialty Cut Flowers (Allan Armitage) it says that Achillea should be harvested after the pollen is out of the flower to avoid drooping. So how can I tell when this is?
I have always cut Yarrow when the center of the flower cluster has developed / aged. For the first time in the four years I've been growing it, I have seen pollen for the first time. Good time to look is in the morning, also the very best time to cut it. You'll see little bright yellow bits sticking up out of the center of each little flower in the cluster. I'm now letting more of the flower clusters develop on the stem than I used to when I sold to florists. Only downside to this is that the first flower cluster looks a little worse for wear.
This is one of those flowers that you need to experiment with and see what works for you. Let some flowers age and then cut and cut some immature and see how they hold up. There's nothing worse than cutting this one and within an hour all the flower heads bob their heads and nothing you do, revives it. Good Luck
Cheers Kim
Billabong Fresh Flower Farm
Thanks Kim, I appreciate the advice. I'll look closely in the morning. I've had the drooping problem in the past when cutting yarrow for myself. Now that I'm cutting it to sell this season, I really need to avoid that problem. I'm mostly cutting Moonshine right now which is nice and stiff but I planted a big patch of the Colorado mix which is a different species (millefolium) and more prone to drooping.
Well I tried Patty's suggestion and it did seem to help stiffen the stems up. But I also noticed that this white yarrow picked up a pink tinge after being in the preservative in the fridge all day. I'm using Jeanne's recipe: 2 tblsp. sugar, 2 tblsp. vinegar and 1 tsp. bleach per gallon of water. Maybe I don't need to use so much vinegar since I'm on city water? Do you think my preservative mix is too acidic? Would this cause the color shift toward pink?


text: I just finished the game for the 2nd time thanks to the humble indie bundle and got 100%. I was idling on the menu doing whatever and this pink question mark in a circle appeared on the top right corner of the game. I clicked it and it took me to the forest with the log dude and archetype talking about being sorry that it took so long and other stuff. They talked for a while and after a few minutes I realized I could scroll to the left. I saw an image of the ending bonfire scene and a close up of the Scythain in non pixel art form. Anyone who's beat the game have any insight to this and that number given during the ending?

ARCATA, California (March 23, 2015) – Kokatat announced today that it has teamed up with paddling industry veterans and expert instructors Steve and Cindy Scherrer and their Shellback Paddle Experience (www.shellbackpe.com). The Scherrers recently founded the program to share their stand up paddleboarding expertise with aspiring paddlers and the top paddlesport shops across the country.
"Steve and Cindy are two of the most respected paddlesport instructors in the industry," said Lisa Kincaid, Kokatat PR/Promotional Marketing Manager. "They've been great supporters of Kokatat over the years and we are excited to have them back on our team."
The Scherrers founded Alder Creek Kayak and Canoe in Portland, OR, in 1986. They sold the business in 2004 and joined Confluence Watersports to help design boats and work in the field as training and technical specialists. They left Confluence last year and founded Shellback.
While touring the country they will be conducting skills classes in SUP as well as training and certifying ACA SUP instructors. Additionally, the Scherrers will be providing shop clinic support to Kokatat's sales team and will be highlighting Kokatat's products during their classes.
"We've been fans of Kokatat since before our Alder Creek days," said Steve Scherrer. "We've had a strong relationship since then and believe they not only produce the finest kayak apparel, but are a model company."
For details on the Shellback Paddle Experience and dates of their clinics visit www.shellbackpe.com.
About Kokatat Inc.
Kokatat has been manufacturing paddling gear in Arcata, California for more than 40 years. At a time when many technical apparel brands were moving manufacturing offshore, Kokatat continued to invest in infrastructure in the United States. Kokatat founder Steve O'Meara was committed to the development of the finest and driest paddling apparel in the world and recognized the need to control and continually evolve the development of our dry wear. In the early days, Kokatat worked closely with W.L. Gore & Associates, makers of GORE-TEX®, to refine the sewing and sealing techniques required for full immersion suits and tops. Today, our hands-on approach to manufacturing continues to set the standard in paddling apparel. Into the water with Kokatat! Please visit www.kokatat.com and follow Kokatat on Facebook and Twitter "@kokatat".
Kokatat has outfitted a four-member team that just began a whitewater journey of a lifetime, reaching from South Africa into China.
Stage one of Expedition Inception, a two-stage expedition, will take the team from South Africa to Egypt. Over the course of about eight months, the paddlers plan to run and explore multiple first descents and source-to-sea waterways.
Kokatat has always been known as an innovative company especially when it comes to dry suits. While they didn't invent them back in 1971 when they first started stitching, there is little doubt that they should get the credit for making them appealing to the masses.
Starting next year Kokatat will be taking a giant leap forward with the roll-out of the Idol drysuit with what they are calling SwitchZip technology. Gone will be the giant brass zipper across the chest in favour of a 360 degree waterproof zipper located around the waist.
To me this is going to be a huge game changer. The new zipper will still be a 100% waterproof but will allow you to completely separate the pants from the top allowing you to mix and match depending on the conditions and/or water temperature. If you only need a paddling jacket than leave the pants behind or zip them together as a regular drysuit. I will file this whole thing under the why-didn't-this-come-out-10-years-ago-idea.
I haven't tried it on yet but I suspect that this is also going to make the fit and comfort of the suit a whole lot better as it should be considerably less bulky upstairs without that stiff brass zipper jammed under your lifejacket. Also ladies, you won't need to order the drop zipper any longer. You know that drop zipper that makes butts look twice as wide? I kid! I kid.
As far as the placement of the new zipper, I've been told that when seated, it will sit inside the kayak cockpit between the backband and the seat. Designed into the suit is a simple Cordura cover so it won't get hung up in kayak rigging or PFD's.
So when will it be showing up at paddling shops? Kokatat says to watch for the new Idol sometime in January, 2015.
Kokatat has unveiled a brand new system to design your own custom dry suit so you no longer need to look like everybody else on the beach. I remember hearing rumours of this about a year ago so I'm glad to see it is finally available.
The process is pretty simple. After choosing the base model you want, you are presented with a wide variety of options where you can adjust everything from the fabric colours (both top and bottom) to gasket size to the ability to add (or remove) a hood. Of course different options will add to the overall cost of the suit but if you need to have it your way, now you can.
If you are a dreamer jump in and design away to year hearts content. Just don't copy the gorgeous set-up I designed above or else I will total call you out next time I see you.
More info: Kokatat.com
I want to know is why Kokatat isn't getting on board the fashion train and offering an epaulette option for all their dry suits.
It's time to bring the classy back to the paddling high seas. Who is with me?
Kokatat is proud to announce that professional whitewater kayaker and 2012 Canoe and Kayak Male Paddler of the Year, Isaac Levinson, has officially joined its team of elite athletes.
The twenty-three year-old Atlanta native began his paddling career as a whitewater slalom racer. Levinson's strong foundation of slalom skills has brought success on the extreme racing circuit, where he has been a fixture on podiums over the last several years.
"Everyday on the river is an adventure for me; I've been able to kayak in some amazing places and push my personal limits on challenging whitewater," Levinson said. "I've always been a big fan of Kokatat gear, and I'm excited to be joining their team and representing the company."
Most recently, Levinson was given the coveted Canoe and Kayak Male Paddler of the Year Award at Outdoor Retailer Summer Market 2012.
He was the 2011 Green Race champion and North America's top finisher in the inaugural AWP Whitewater World Series. Keeping close to his slalom roots, Levinson competed in the U.S. Olympic Team Trials and finished ninth in the highly competitive K-1 class.
Levinson will be wearing and providing feedback on various Kokatat products including the new Kokatat Maximus Prime. The Prime is the Type 5 rescue version of Kokatat's latest and most advance PFD platform.
Levinson joins Kokatat's distinguished group of paddle sport athlete ambassadors that includes among others such luminaries in the sport as Dane and Eric Jackson, Jesse Coombs, Paul Kuthe, and Adriene Levknecht the Canoe and Kayak Female Paddler of the Year.
For the full roster of Kokatat athletes and ambassador team members visit http://www.kokatat.com/team.
Kokatat has just announced the fruits of their labour with the recently announced partnership with Eric "E.J." Jackson and his son Dane.
Starting January, 2013, you will be able to purchase the Kokatat Jackson Collection which will include specially designed dry suit, dry-top and shorty dry-top.
Everything will be unveiled at Outdoor Retailer in a couple of weeks but they released a couple of sneak peek photos below.
As you can see, everything is designed from a whitewater kayaking perspective so most of the bells and whistles (like pockets) that come on their touring gear have been left behind with a focus on sleekness, function and flexibility.
GORE-TEX Icon Dry Suit
The new Icon Dry Suit is a tangerine coloured suit with nice graphics on the arm. The most obvious design change (compared to their other suits) is that they moved the entry zipper from across the front of the chest to the back of your shoulder. I don't know all the reasons for the change but my guess is that it allows the front of the suit to be more flexible and move more comfortably during whitewater tricks.
GORE-TEX Legend Dry Top
The new Legend Dry Top has many of the same features and colour pattern as the Icon Dry Suit (minus the pants of course). If you have a tighter budget, the dry-top will also be available in their new Hudrus 3-Layer fabric. More on that below.
Hydrus 3L Mythic Shorty Dry Top
The new Mythic Shorty is going to be available in a new material called Hydrus 3L.
I don't know a whole lot of information about Hydrus 3L but it looks like somebody has finally figured out how to make a waterproof breathable nylon material.
Here is the description I found:
The Mythic shorty, part of the Kokatat Jackson Collection, features Kokatat's new Hydrus 3L, a three-layer fabric that is exceptionally waterproof and breathable thanks to its super tough Nylon outer layer with a DWR finish, a proprietary polyurethane micro-porous coating, and a soft polyester inner layer to manage moisture.
I wrote to Kokatat to get more info about the pros and cons of the new material and will update when I hear back.
Update: Kokatat said they will be relasing more information about Hydreus 3L in the next couple of weeks so stay tuned!
Maximus Prime PFD
Not specifically part of the Kokatat Jackson Collection but still new on the market, the Maximus Prime PFD looks like a very cool design. I'm keen to see better photos and video showing off the features. It's a low volume PFD called the Maximus Prime (awesome name) which features a quick release safety harness and O-ring, a tether/ tow system, and an electronics pocket.
The biggest new feature of the Maximus Prime which is hinting at a whole new line of PFD's for next year is what they are calling the "Dynamic Suspension System (DSS)". According to the info I received, "the DSS features wide, contoured shoulder straps that allow an independently suspended front flotation panel to move with the paddler."
So there you have it, the Kokatat Jackson Collection. What do you think? Is it time to start saving up for Sping? All signs point to yes.
No word on pricing for anything yet but look for it in your local paddling shop sometime in early 2013.
The fate of the early sea otter and Aleut populations are intrinsically linked. Before contact with Europeans it is estimated that there were 25,000 Aleuts, today there are about 2,000. Similarly the sea otter population is believed to have undergone a decline exceeding 50% over the past 30 years.
Kokatat ambassador Keirron Tastagh, and his long-term student and paddling partner George Shaw have embarked on a 1,500 mile expedition through the Aleutian Islands to investigate the current status of the sea otter population in the area.
"Our expedition is inspired by the Aleutians rich culture and kayaking heritage," said Tastagh. "The journey will not only paint a picture of the current sea otter population, but will also provide a better understanding of 'The Aleut Story'."
Working with the US Fish & Wildlife Service, Tastagh and Shaw will be recording the presence or absence of sea otters in bays, and noting killer whale position as well as taking photographs for identification for marine biologists' live projects. Killer whale attacks are suspected to be leading cause for the decline of the Northern Sea Otter in the Aleutians, which is listed as an endangered species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature.
Setting out from Unalaska, Tastagh and Shaw, who both train and live on the Isle of Man, UK, will paddle unsupported. They will carry all their kit and freeze dried meals on-board and will supplement their diet with fresh fish. Along the way they will encounter challenges such as katabatic winds, large tidal ranges, open crossings, sea fog, landing zones and the unpredictable and stormy Bering Sea.
Tastagh and Shaw plan to "explore as far as necessary to reach the conclusions we require" which could be as far as the Russian Kamchatka Peninsula.
Kokatat has supplied both paddlers with various gear for their Expedition Kit:

Kokatat announces that Charlie "C-Mac" MacArthur has joined its group of elite paddlesports ambassadors. MacArthur, founder of the Aspen Kayak and SUP Academy, pioneered stand up paddleboarding (SUP) on rivers and spearheads the Whitewater SUP Championships. MacArthur will exclusively wear Kokatat PFD's and technical apparel and promote the brand at various events.
"It's amazing what Charlie can do on a SUP in raging rapids," said Lisa Kincaid, Kokatat Promotional Marketing Manager. "SUP is one of the fastest growing segments in the paddlesports market, and Charlie's easy going demeanor paired with his SUP skills makes him an ideal ambassador for us as we look to increase our visibility in the sport."
Watersports has always been a part of MacArthur's life. He grew up surfing in Hawaii and Southern California before moving to Colorado in 1978 where he became one of the regions best known whitewater kayakers. In 2003 MacArthur tried SUP for the first time while vacationing in Fiji. The sport quickly took hold and within the next year MacArthur was paddleboarding on rivers and making numerous SUP first descents.
"I've been in paddlesports for a long time and have always had the upmost respect and appreciation for Kokatat as a company and for the quality of its gear," said MacArthur. "I'm excited to help with their SUP specific gear and spread the Kokatat word."
Along with running one of the top SUP and kayak schools in the country, MacArthur is credited with co-designing the world's first whitewater specific standup paddleboard, the CMAC ATB made by the foremost SUP manufacturer C-4 Waterman.
Since the sport's inception, standup paddleboarders have relied on Kokatat gear to keep them dry, comfortable and safe on the water. Kokatat's low profile Orbit Tour PFD and GORE-TEX® Lightweight Paddling Suit have been adopted by numerous SUP paddlers as their go to pieces as they both provide freedom of motion for optimal paddle strokes and superior breathability for the aerobic nature of the sport.
MacArthur will be wearing and providing feedback on various Kokatat products including the new NeoCore shorts and tops. NeoCore, with its paddler specific designs and lightweight fabric, is great for SUP paddlers who often fend off splash, but do not need a heavy insulation. NeoCore is a wet insulation layer in a lightweight 0.5mm neoprene fabric with a plush polyester inner lining that is comfortable against the skin while retaining little water. Additionally, its permanent Durable Water Resistant (DWR) coating on the outer surface helps NeoCore regulate body temperature by reducing the effect of evaporative heat loss.
MacArthur joins Kokatat's distinguished group of paddlesport athletes and ambassadors that includes such luminaries in the sport as Dane and Eric Jackson, Jon Bowermaster, Jesse Coombs, Anna Levesque, and Bryan Smith among others.

In 1895, Norwegian explorer Fridtjof Nansen abandoned his plan to reach the North Pole by ship and headed for the pole by dog sled. Nansen didn't make it to the pole, but his journey and safe return became one of the poles most epic tales.
Nansen's plan had he reached the North Pole was to head for Spitsbergen, the only permanently populated island of the Svalbard archipelago in Norway. Arctic adventures Audun Tholfsen and Timo Palo just embarked on attempting this return route using Kokatat GORE-TEX® Expedition dry suits while navigating sections of open water and treacherous ice flows.
After being air dropped at the geographical North Pole, Tholfsen and Palo will use skis and kayaks to cross the drifting ice floes and open water on their way to Spitsbergen. They will then continue across the fjords and mountains towards the south of the island until they reach Longyearbyen, the largest settlement in Spitsbergen. The expedition team hopes to complete the expedition, unsupported and without resupplies, in 50 to 60 days.
Throughout the way the team will take in-situ measurements and will carry out scientific observations. With a light set of instruments they will regularly measure the snow and ice thickness and surface layer air temperature data and drift speed of local ice floes.
In 1893, Nansen embarked on a daring plan of sailing his ship, the Fram, into the Arctic icepack and using the natural drift of the polar ice to reach the North Pole. After several months in the icepack, Nansen calculated that it might take over five years for the Fram to reach the Pole and Nansen devised a new plan.
On the 14th of March 1895, Nansen and dog sled expert and ship stoker Hjalmar Johansen left the icebound Fram and set out on skis and sleds with kayaks and 28 dogs for the North Pole. After reaching a record mark of latitude 86°14 ′ North on April 7th, they abandoned the attempt and retreated southwards, eventually reaching the island Franz Josef Land later that year.
With some good fortune in June of 1896 they met up with an English expedition team and were reunited with the Fram that had emerged from the ice pack north-west of Spitsbergen, as Nansen had predicted. However, the ship never made it beyond 85° 57' North.
Norwegian Tholfsen and Estonian Palo have skied across Greenland and completed several mountain ski expeditions in Svalbard and Norway. The team spent ten months as crewmembers on Tara, a French sailing vessel that, similar to the Fram, froze into the Arctic pack ice and drifted across the entire Arctic Ocean. Currently, Tholfsen works to provide logistic solutions and field support in Arctic regions. Palo has been working in Spitsbergen providing logistics and field support, and currently works as a PhD student and field technician at the University of Tartu, studying polar meteorology.

It again is a mixture of the Russian influence and modern architecture. This city is very cosmopolitan with all major stores and retailers here. There are many autos on the street of all makes.

The National Civil War Naval Museum at Port Columbus is distinguished as being the lone museum in U.S. that describes the tale of the Union and Confederate navies during the Civil War. It contains American Civil War military vessels, uniforms, equipment and weapons of that period. But the main focal point is the 180-foot (55 m) hull of the CSS Jackson which was sunk during the Civil War and recovered from the bed of the Chattahoochee river in the 1960s. The guided tours are highly informative and there is a museum shop to look for mementos. The museum also regularly arranges for interactive events like the battle experience theater and an interactive Confederate ironclad ship simulator.

Let's recast Firefly with Muppets? BRILLIANT!
But will he cameo in The Force Awakens?! (Spoiler: probably not.)
Still, it's good to see that Frank Oz is still up for reprising his icon role as the voice of Yoda 30 plus years later. Even if I still think he sounds like Super Grover.
Someone should show this to Rodarte and be like "Really: This."
Best Tree Sweater Ever.
This is not a video, so much as it is a compilation of a series of gifs. (Hence the lack of light saber noises.) It details the problem of light saber escalation. Light saber escalation is a problem, one everyone should know about. For the price of a cup of coffee a day., you can do something about light saber escalation for a Jedi near you.
(Though, for the record, Yoda's is pretty badass. Because of course it is.)
Friday, we had the new Star Wars trailer, in all it's Episode VII glory. Monday, we had the "George Lucas Special Edition" version in all it's over the top glory.
But George isn't directing the new trilogy. In fact, he sold the whole damn franchise to Disney. That's why fans have a New Hope, that this time, thing will be different.
Well, yes and no. Turns out JJ Abrams is fond of the Special Edition tradition of remaking Star Wars anything whenever possible. And he knows exactly what this trailer needed more of…
The new Star Wars:The Force Awakens trailer came out Friday, and it was awesome. We had everything from a black storm trooper (hey look, the future reached the 21st century!) to a soccer ball droid to Jedi Jesus light saber.
So of course, by yesterday George Lucas had to "improve" on it. You have to agree, his time frame between the originals and his tweaked versions is getting shorter. I'll bet you won't even be able to ever buy the original trailer on bluray…

U.S. Postal Service:
Action Needed to Address Unfunded Benefit Liabilities
GAO-14-398T: Published: Mar 13, 2014. Publicly Released: Mar 13, 2014.

What GAO Found
The extent to which the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) has funded its liabilities varies due to different statutory funding requirements specific to each benefit program and USPS's financial means to make payments. For example, USPS has been required to prefund its pension benefit liability over decades, and as shown in the table below, its pension liability is 94 percent funded. Prefunding USPS's retiree health benefits began in 2007, and the liability is about half funded. In contrast, USPS funds its workers' compensation benefits on a pay-as-you-go basis, and the entire liability is unfunded. The largest unfunded liabilities, in order of decreasing size, are $48 billion for retiree health, $19 billion for pensions, and $17 billion for workers' compensation. The rules for calculating the amount that USPS must fund each year differ among the pension and retiree health programs, including variations in amortization periods, recognition of any surpluses, use of actuarially determined versus fixed payments, and actuarial assumptions.

Source: USPS.
GAO has previously reported that without congressional action to address USPS's benefit funding issues and better align its costs and revenues, USPS faces continuing low liquidity levels, insufficient revenues to make annual prefunding payments, and increasing liabilities. Deferring funding could increase costs for future postal ratepayers and increase the possibility that USPS may not be able to pay for these costs. GAO has previously identified the following key considerations related to USPS's funding of its benefits liabilities:
Reasons for prefunding include fairly allocating costs between current and future ratepayers, protecting USPS's future viability, providing greater benefit security to employees and retirees, and protecting potential third parties.
Prefunding decisions involve trade-offs between USPS's current financial condition and its long-term prospects.
Congress needs to modify USPS's retiree health prefunding payments in a fiscally responsible manner, and USPS should prefund any unfunded retiree- health benefits liability to the maximum extent that its finances permit.
Lowering the retiree health funding target from 100 to 80 percent would have the effect of carrying a permanent unfunded liability.
USPS liabilities are estimated using assumptions for the federal workforce as a whole, rather than USPS-specific assumptions. GAO supports the use of the most accurate actuarial assumptions available, and if USPS-specific assumptions are used, that they be recommended by an independent body.
Why GAO Did This Study
USPS continues to be in a serious financial crisis, with insufficient revenue to cover its expenses and financial obligations as the volume of USPS's most profitable product, First-Class Mail, continues to decline. At the end of fiscal year 2013, USPS had about $100 billion in unfunded liabilities: $85 billion in unfunded liabilities for benefits, including retiree- health, pension, and workers' compensation liabilities, and $15 billion in outstanding debt to the U.S. Treasury—the statutory limit. These unfunded liabilities are a large and growing financial burden, increasing from 83 percent of USPS revenues in fiscal year 2007 to 148 percent of revenues in fiscal year 2013. Unfunded benefit liabilities represent estimated future benefit payments to current and retired employees for which USPS has not set aside sufficient money to pay. This testimony discusses (1) the extent to which USPS's benefit liabilities are unfunded and (2) the potential impacts of USPS's unfunded benefit liabilities absent action by Congress to address them and key policy issues for consideration. This testimony is based primarily on GAO's work over the past 4 years and updated USPS financial information for fiscal year 2013.
GAO has previously reported that a comprehensive package of legislative actions is needed so that USPS can achieve financial viability and assure adequate benefits funding for more than 1 million postal employees and retirees. GAO has also previously identified various approaches Congress could consider to restructure the funding of USPS retiree health benefits and pensions.

Pigeon Forge, Tenn. (AP) -- The American Bald Eagle is soaring again in Tennessee thanks to state and citizen-led restoration efforts. But activist Al Cecere says the work to fully restore the national bird isn't over.
Cecere founded the American Eagle Foundation, based at Dollywood theme park in Pigeon Forge.
He and the center's free-flying eagle Challenger joined Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne in Washington Thursday to announce that the bald eagle, once nearly wiped out by hunters and DDT poisoning, will no longer require protection under the Endangered Species Act.
Nowhere has the gain from rescued eagles been greater than in Tennessee, where more than 300 captive-bred and trans-located eaglets have been released since the early 1980s, more than any other state.
Only one pair of eagles was recorded in Tennessee in 1983. Today, there are about 115 pairs.
Wildlife officials say there are more than 11,000 pairs in the nation, up from 417 pairs in 1963.

Both my boyfriend, Bashir, and I have studied English (and history/psychology) at the University of Copenhagen and now teach at adult education centres. We live together with our little son Ayo in our newly renovated 124 m2 two-storey flat in the nice, quiet and central area of Islands Brygge (Copenhagen).
We both love Copenhagen but also really looove to travel and have been to many parts of the world. We've just started using airbnb for our own trips abroad and never want to stay at a hotel again - we're BIG fans of getting the local vibe plus we get to pick places with a children's room which is perfect with a little toddler who can't sit still :) So, maybe we'll stay at your place next!

Clinical judgment can be colored by previous experiences from different cultures, expectancy rates of pathology among certain groups, and differences in socioeconomic levels. As clinical experiences increase with people from different cultures, the limitations of neuropsychological tools to make accurate assessments become evident. It is through gaining knowledge about the values of a different culture that neuropsychologists can develop a cross-cultural understanding.
Professionals in areas such as neuropsychology, cross-cultural psychology, and social psychology, to name a few, will find the material in this volume to be a stimulating addition to existing literature.
