Four arithmetic operations:
1 + 2 - 3 × 4 ÷ 5 = 0.6
√( 2 × 2 ) = 2
500 + 20% = 600
500 - 20% = 400
500 × 20% = 100
100 ÷ 500% = 20
Tax calculation:
500 Tax+= 525

A lovely person, we are sad she was only for one night with us
Excelente huesped, muy tranquila, respetuosa y silenciosa. Dentro de lo que pudimos conversar se nota que estaba muy cansada!!
Fue un gusto tenerla en casa.
Smita was a great guest! She was very quiet and respectful. We really enjoyed hosting her!
Smita was delightful. She was very friendly and interested in you as a person. Easy going and independent.
Smita was a model guest, welcome any time. Thank you!
Smita was the most delightful guest, extremely easy going and fuss free. She stayed for just over a week and was extremely respectful of her space, a great independent traveller and gracious in her ways. She made use of the kitchen (with some fabulous smells for her culinary expertise) and was very neat and tidy. Welcome again any time!
Hosting Smita was great fun and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Smita as a guest. We had plenty of common interests including cooking and food and the great outdoors.
Smita was the perfect house guest! Very respectful, nice, and personable! I would recommend any host great her with open arms!
Smita was a wonderful guest! She was very communicative of her plans prior to her arrival, which really helped things go smoothly. Smita has a very friendly, compassionate, and collected demeanor, and I happily recommend her to any host.
I must share, this was probably one of the most Karmically balanced hosting experiences I've encountered yet. The first night Smita was here I accidentally set off the smoke alarm when Olivia and I made a fire in the fireplace, which, of course, woke her up. We felt so bad about that, I was going to refund her some of the cost of that night. Then the next day Smita lost the house key somewhere on the strip, and had to call me upon her late night return to let her in... which she apologized for... so I told her that it was a wash for the night before. When she left, she forgot some of her clothes, but fortunately I am heading to New York next week, so I'll be able to deliver them to her.
Smita and her friend Sunye were wonderful guests..Such a true pleasure to have met them!..Highly recommended.Hope to see them again soon* Always Welcome..

Riverdale student wins international contest
School represents Oregon for 11th consecutive year at global bridge building event
For the third time in the last six years, a Riverdale High School student has snagged first place in the International Bridge Building Competition.
At the event last Saturday in Chicago, Riverdale students for the 11th year in a row represented Oregon, and Riverdale sophomore Cole Bemis pocketed the coveted top spot in the contest. Fellow Riverdale student Kate Hollingshead earned 13th in a competition with 58 contestants hailing from at least half the states in the United States and from Indonesia, said Jody Haagenson, Riverdale School District spokeswoman.
Its probably one of the biggest things Ive won so far, Bemis said. Its kind of hard to describe. I dont think its really hit me yet. It doesnt feel real yet.
After finishing his bridge midway through the competition, Bemis said he was so nervous, he left: I couldnt stand to watch the other bridges.
Its a tradition at Riverdale for the sophomores in teacher Mark Wechters physics class to enter the contest, yet students in other grades at the Portland school also sign up.
The constructions are truss bridges wrought of basswood, and the more weight that a bridge can bear, the better its score. Students must design the bridges to match certain specifications, and bridge specifications change every year for the annual contest.
Riverdale doesnt have a football team, so bridge building is kind of like our football, what were most proud of, said Bemis, 15.
Bemis first place bridge held up 49 kilograms, about 108 pounds, and the actual mass of his creation was 9.69 grams. His efficiency rating was 5057, about 400 points higher than his closest competitor. Hollingsheads bridge had a mass of 10.10 grams and could support 30 kilograms, about 66 pounds, and the efficiency rating was 2970.
Congrats to both of them, Haagenson said.
The International Bridge Building Committee oversees the contest, which was created to promote the study of and application of fundamental physics principles and to help students develop hands-on skills, according to the committees website.

And she won't stop. Today is a big one for Miley Cyrus news: This morning, her nude Rolling Stone cover—her first ever!—was revealed to the world, and her new video with producers Mike Will Made-It, Wiz Khalifa, and Juicy J has just hit the web. The clip for the Mike Will Made-It track "23" features—you guessed it—Miley in various states of undress, with her wardrobe highlights including a series of two-piece Michael Jordan-era Chicago Bulls uniforms, a sparkling bikini with a matching basketball, and lots of Chanel accessories. There's also plenty of twerking and sticking out of tongues, which brings us fondly back to the star's buzzed-about performance at the VMAs. To add to the scandalousness, the video takes place in a high school, which only helps Miley's new persona as the anti-role model. What do you think of Miley's latest escapade?

DALLAS (AP) — Dirk Nowitzki is playing at an All-Star level and it shows in the standings for the Dallas Mavericks — four straight wins, matching their best streak of the season.
Mavericks win 4th in row, 103-81 over Jazz
With a 103-81 victory over the last-place Utah Jazz on Friday night, the Mavs moved nine games over .500 at 30-21, only the second time since their 2010-11 NBA championship season to be that far above the break-even mark.
"I feel like we've improved, and that we're on a good path," coach Rick Carlisle said. "We just have to stick with it."
At the same time, Carlisle invoked what he called one of former NBA coach Chuck Daly's favorite sayings.
"Don't trust happiness, especially in the NBA," Carlisle said, quoting the late coach he worked for in New Jersey.
Monta Ellis scored 22 points to lead Dallas, but was walking unsteadily when went to the locker room after the coming out the game with 3½ minutes left. Carlisle said it appeared to be a hamstring injury, and that there was some concern with an MRI scheduled for Saturday.
Nowitzki scored 20 points while playing only 26½ minutes and taking only nine shots. He made five of his field goals, with two 3-pointers, and 8 of 9 free throws. Jose Calderon and Samuel Dalembert each had 12 points for the Mavs.
"We got in a good groove on offense and played some great defense," Shawn Marion said. "We were able to take them out of their offense. They never really could catch a grove or rhythm."
Except for Shawn Williams early, though he couldn't keep it up for the Jazz, who lost their fourth game in a row even while getting back at full strength.
Williams finished with 21 points, all before halftime, while matching his career high with five 3-pointers. He had 14 points as the Jazz jumped out to a 21-14 lead in the first 6 minutes.
"I think our offense got stagnant when they jumped into that zone and I wasn't able to get some of the look I was able to get when they were playing man," Williams said. "They just made more plays than we did. They might have played a little harder than we did."

Paravertebral anatomy ANATOMY The paravertebral space is a wedge shaped anatomical compartment adjacent to the vertebral bodies. Its boundaries are defined anterior-laterally by the parietal pleura; posteriorly by the superior costotransverse ligament (thoracic levels); medially by the vertebrae, vertebral disk, and intervertebral foramina; and superiorly and inferiorly by the heads of the ribs (Figure 12-1). The space is further divided into an anterior (ventral) and posterior (dorsal) compartment by the endothoracic fascia. Studies have suggested that to inject as close to the spinal nerves as possible, this fascial layer should be crossed and local anesthetic deposited into the ventral compartment. Within the paravertebral space, the spinal nerves are essentially "rootlets" and are not as tightly bundled with investing fascia as they are more distally. This anatomy enhances local anes- thetic contact; the nerve roots facilitate dense nerve blockade when a small volume of local anesthetic is introduced into the space. Injection of local an- esthetic results in ipsilateral motor, sensory, and sympathetic blockade.

At War With Art
Reconstruction still puzzles many Americans. The art journalist Tyler Green, reviewing the book published with the exhibition, says it "deserves to win awards in two disciplines: Art history and American history." Like Green and Harvey, many Americans never learned in school what Reconstruction was really about. Even today, some of our K–12 history textbooks maintain the confusion. The American Journey, for example, begins:
The war had left the South with enormous problems. Most of the major fighting had taken place in the South. Towns and cities were in ruin, plantations burned, and roads, bridges, and railroads destroyed….
People in all parts of the nation agreed that the devastated Southern economy and society needed rebuilding. They disagreed bitterly, however, over how to accomplish this. This period of rebuilding is called Reconstruction. This term also refers to the various plans for accomplishing the rebuilding.
This chapter is allegedly by James McPherson, our foremost Civil War historian, but McPherson would never have written that passage and allowed such a mistake to stand.
If Harvey had gotten the history of Reconstruction right, the meaning of the art from that period on display in the exhibition would have resonated more clearly. In addition to the political reconstruction of Southern state governments, with the attendant societal transformation as Confederate leaders were disfranchised and African-Americans were enfranchised, Reconstruction was also an ideological movement. Across the entire country, many white people came to favor black voting and even equal rights. Paintings by Eastman Johnson and Winslow Homer, including some in this exhibit, show this equal treatment of African-Americans. The curator does recognize that the place of African-Americans was the galvanizing issue behind secession and the Civil War. But she cannot effectively tie Johnson's and Homer's works to Reconstruction as an ideology, because she thinks Reconstruction refers mainly to physically rebuilding the South.
Instead of perceiving Reconstruction in Johnson's pictures of African-Americans, she sees it in his 1872 portrait of a white girl with windswept hair, The Girl I Left Behind Me, calling it "a compelling, if complicated, commentary on Reconstruction-era America." "Complicated," indeed: Johnson first titled it The Foggy Day, then Young Maidenhood, because it had nothing to do with Reconstruction. The girl wears a ring, possibly a wedding ring, which prompts Harvey to ask: "Is Johnson referring to her personal life or to the Union as the nation?" So an artist cannot picture a ring during or even well after the war and have it just be a ring! Such commentary reminds me of how, back when I was a lad, my Presbyterian Bible "explained" the sex passages in the Old Testament's "Song of Solomon" as being about "Christ's love for his church."
Despite all this bad history, there are two reasons the exhibition is worth seeing. First, there is some gorgeous art. The Hudson River School is on beautiful display, including four large landscapes by Church: The Icebergs, Cotopaxi, Aurora Borealis and Rainy Season in the Tropics. The wall text is absurd. Cotopaxi depicts a volcano in Ecuador. "Although Cotopaxi is not specifically about the Civil War, it is suffused with it," Harvey pontificates. "Race slavery was North America's volcano, a simmering force, hidden and suppressed, but waiting to erupt explosively." Too many visitors to art museums spend more time reading the wall texts than looking at the works on display; this a reminder of why it's essential to look at the art.
The second reason for seeing the exhibition is that Harvey has done a good job of assembling nineteenth-century paintings that treat race. She rightly notes that service in the US armed forces brought many white Americans into contact with African-Americans for the first time. Certainly Winslow Homer and Eastman Johnson came to know African-Americans during the war, and the results are well represented here.
So, go. Look. Think. But don't read anything on the wall. Instead, go home and read Eric Foner's Reconstruction. That way, you'll get good art and good history.
Nation contributing editor and blogger Jon Wiener points out some of the historical errors in a
contemporary work of cinematic art in "The Trouble With Steven Spielberg's Lincoln" (Nov. 26).

Work from Home Opportunities
I have recently been researching various work form home opportunities online, and Wow! is it ever mind boggiling!!! I seem to find all kinds of info about not getting caught up in scams, but how do I know what is reliable?? Has anybody been in the same boat as me? I am looking for advice on where and how to start from anyone who has tried to work from home. Any help would be greatly appreciated... Thanks!!
Good Morning America recently (within the last 3 months) did a series on work at home opportunities. I'd check their web site. There was lots of good advice.
A few legitimate ones that I can think of right away are: assembling (sewing) stuffed toys or clothing for companies that do this.
Medical transcriptionist....typing up reports for insurance companies. IDX (major medical software supplier) was running courses in New England that were paid for by the unemployment depts. of the states. You have to work, but have the potential to make $20,000-$30,000 per year at home.
In home care for various State Depts.....take in a foster child or an adult that needs care. Many states pay $20,000-$30,000 per year per person. This is a full time job, they live in your house. I have a relative taking care of two older people who are a little simple minded. Making about $50,000 per year.
I'm sure there are other jobs that aren't rip offs.

Blackburn sign Ipswich winger Paul Taylor on loan for rest of season

Blackburn could face the possibility of a transfer embargo for failing to comply with the new Financial Fair Play regulations, according to the club's managing director Derek Shaw.
Last month Venky's London Limited, the parent company for Rovers, posted losses of over £27million with the club's accounts, due later this year, expected to paint a similarly bleak picture.
And, earlier in September, it was revealed Blackburn were far and away the biggest spenders on agents in the Championship as the club struggled to cope with their relegation from the top flight two seasons ago.
Speaking at a fans' forum hosted by BBC Radio Lancashire on Monday night, Shaw revealed that even promotion back to the Premier League could see the club hit with a fine once the new FFP rules come in.
"If we are promoted I think we'll have a substantial fine and, if we're not promoted at this stage, we'll probably have an embargo," said Shaw.
"It's a difficult balance because we've got to try to and change a team around that almost got relegated to a team that we want to get promoted."
Rovers have had a more prudent summer transfer window, allowing high-earners such as Morten Gamst Pedersen to leave on free transfers.
Shaw himself is not a fan of the FFP rules, and added: "It's very difficult for clubs who have come down from the Premier League with quite a number of big contracts that are in place, but we're working on it.
"I think there will be a lot of clubs creating a lot of noise over the next few months because nobody's really been hit with it yet.
"Clubs like ourselves and the Leicesters, and probably clubs like Middlesbrough, who have got big wage bills, won't be wanting transfer embargoes."

One of the best shows I have ever seen at a small playhouse. Best play ever at The Alley. Cast was excellent. Fun and heart warming.

- Forum: PoliticalOutsider
Very true. There's going to be a lot of growth in extremist views to deal with Islam in the West. Some of that will undoubtedly be a step too far. Unless our politicians really act, it's going to get bad. The press need to play their part as well, notably the BBC, who still are treating their viewers with utter contempt by forever not blaming Islam.

Ever since we met Rebecca Atwood at our Easter Egg Decorating Party last year, we've been absolutely hooked on the textile designer's signature style of beautiful patterns and rich color. Last week, Rebecca was kind enough to let us into her home studio for a quick tour. Although the space is quite small, just a tiny room in her Brooklyn brownstone apartment, Rebecca has done wonders with it— packing it with beautiful objects, inspiring images, incredible color, and texture. I've always admired Rebecca's ability to craft stunning yet wonderfully simple pattern and getting a sneak peek into her process was a real treat! Check out the studio tour above and some of the outtakes from our visit below! (And don't forget to follow us on Instagram for more studio tour updates!) —Max
Thank you so much! I love this new series and can't wait to see upcoming studio tours!
She is so talented, love a peak behind the scenes.
I love the brief whirlwind studio tour idea! But I might rather a bit of a video pan of teh space, and perhaps duration of a minute…or three…but maybe my attention span is longer than average? Nah. Not that ;) Great new ideas, though!
I like Sarah H's idea for a video pan and to expand the time…just a little more, please?
hi guys!
these videos were created as a column for instagram, hence the short time. we run extra photos on the site so you can see more pictures at a slower pace. but the vast majority of readers aren't reading the site in the same way, so we're creating new forms of content as a way to connect with readers where they are. our longer form videos, which we've done in the past, just aren't as popular with readers, so we're testing out these short videos, which have been doing much better so far.
These are a great idea. Will be following on instagram shortly!
Super short snippet of a video gleaning Rebecca's spectacular work!
