Curtis HS Youth Spread The Love
For Self Harm Awareness month in March, student health ambassadors at Curtis High School, a Children's Aid Society community school in Staten Island, organized a "Self-Love Day." Student volunteers handed out surveys that youth completed anonymously and led activities like "Fears vs Dreams" from the "To Write Love on Her Arms" movement. Students wrote their biggest fears on bricks and greatest dreams on footprints. The bricks will make a path in the Health Center with the dream footprints stepping over the fears and along the path. A makeshift photo booth was set up for students to take "Love Thy Selfies", complete with positive body image quotes for them to hold up. Because these issues are so prevalent amongst adolescents, students wrote "LOVE" on their arms with sharpies to support those who are struggling with depression, self harm and thoughts of suicide.
After school in the library, students watched the movie "The Perks of Being a Wallflower." The movie depicts the story of a 15 year old struggling with a friend's suicide and his own mental health issues all the while trying to find his place in high school.
All throughout the day, ambassadors and staff connected these issues to resources offered right inside the school at the school based health center. Out of 188 surveys collected, 49 students admitted to self-harming. Information like this will be essential to the Mental Health staff at Curtis High School in their efforts in creating a health center that students feel comforatble going to for help.
National Volunteer Week
The Children's Aid Society wouldn't be what it is today without the dedication, heart, and help of its volunteers. For years, volunteers have played an integral role in supporting the CAS mission and its programming through direct service volunteering, fundraising for a variety of initiatives and programs, and by providing opportunities and unique learning experiences for all of our children and youth.
We'd like to thank each of our direct service volunteers who selflessly give up of their time on a weekly basis to tutor, facilitate programming, assist in the classroom, and spend quality time with many of our deserving children. Without your help, we wouldn't be able to do the great work that we do.
We'd also like to thank each of corporate partners and volunteers. You have brightened our community centers and sites through beautification projects, you have improved the minds of our youth by facilitating workshops, been role models by sharing your expertise through mentoring, and have brought cheer to our kids during the holiday season.
And finally, to the Associates Council, thank you for the countless hours that you devote to our cause through mobilizing your friends and connections and by giving of your time to organize and staff events like the Fitness Jamboree and the clothing drive. And your celebrated fundraisers have drawn attention to CAS and have brought in vital resources and funding to support critical programs. The work continues even now as we make final preparations for Wonderland taking place on April 24 at Manhattan Penthouse. (Buy your tickets here.)
In a time where it is often much easier to sit back, relax, and let other people take responsibility, you have stepped up. You go beyond performing random acts of kindness. You consistently serve and look for ways in which to make the world a better place. We are so grateful to you and for you and are proud that you are a part of the CAS family! Thank you and Happy National Volunteer Week!

2014 CAS Youth of the Year
Earlier this week, The Children's Aid Society's Adolescence Division coordinated an internal competition to select the young person who would represent Children's Aid at the upcoming Boys & Girls Club of America's Youth of the Year State Competition.
Six young people representing Children's Aid sites, Fannie Lou Hamer High School in the Bronx and Hope Leadership Academy in Harlem, were nominated for Youth of the Year honors. Selection was based on leadership within the "club," their commitment to the community and their academic achievements. The candidates underwent an intense process that included writing essays and securing letters of recommendation and/or supporting documentation from their site coordinators. The youth also gave a speech in to a panel of Children's Aid representatives who also evaluated the written applications and formally interviewed each candidate.
Ciarra Leocadio was selected as the Children's Aid Society's 2014 Youth of the Year. Saul Soto and Nyuma Gumaneh, both from the Hope Leadership Academy, were awarded first and second runner-up honors, respectively.
Up next for Ciarra will be to travel to Albany for the Youth of the Year State Competition on May 18-20 where she will compete against other Youth of the Year candidates from across the state of New York. The winner of the state competition will go on to compete in a regional competition. A national Youth of the Year will ultimately be named based on the regional competition.
Ciarra is an Advanced Peer Trainer at the Hope Leadership Academy and has participated in a number of programs, including JPMorgan Project LIVE, MSG Classroom, and the Germany Exchange Program. She will attend Vanderbilt University in the fall on a full Posse Foundation scholarship and plans to become an OB-GYN. The Children's Aid Society is proud to have Ciarra as our 2014 Youth of the Year and we wish her best of luck in Albany!
From the Associates Council: Wonderland Supports CAS Foster Care Programs
The Children's Aid Society Associates Council is hosting its fourth annual spring fundraiser themed "Wonderland" on Thursday, April 24 from 7-10pm at the Manhattan Penthouse.
Proceeds from this year's fundraiser will benefit the foster care programs, which provides care to over 500 young people, ranging from ages 0 to 21, each year. The Children's Aid Society foster care program draws on its 160+ history of helping abused and neglected children by placing them in families that can provide care and support.
"Children's Aid Society is so excited that the foster care programs will benefit from this event," said Jane Golden, Vice President of Child Welfare and Family Services. "We look forward to partnering with the Associates Council to help us enhance the services we provide to children, youth and families involved with the foster care system – safe, stable home environments and the promise of a bright future."
Each year, Children's Aid Society foster care programs monitor over 300 family foster homes and facilitate the adoption of approximately 90 children/youth who cannot return to their birth families. Children's Aid also has two specialized foster care programs – the Treatment Family Foster Care and Medical Foster Care. These programs serve youth with special emotional and psychiatric needs and medically fragile/chronically ill children, respectively. In the past ten years, the Children's Aid Society has also developed new and innovative service models for meeting the specialized needs of adolescents in foster care by creating a Teen Foster Care unit.
By joining us for Wonderland, you will help enhance these Children's Aid Society foster care programs and improve the lives of children in our neediest New York City communities.
We hope to see you on April 24. Buy tickets today!

Washington Heights Community Celebrates Women's History Month
Earlier this week, the SU Campus, a Children's Aid Society community school in Washington Heights, held its Seventh Annual Professional Hispanic Women's Conference. The conference celebrates National Women's History Month and shines a spotlight on the achievements and contributions of hispanic woment by bringing together members of the community for an evening of entertainment, empowerment and growth.
On Wednesday, March 19, a panel of successful Hispanic women spoke to the audience about perseverance, the importance of education and shared personal anecdotes of how they overcame their own personal obstacles in their pursuits. The panel included Barbara Camacho, Esq. Fragomen Fellow; City Bar Justice Center, Honorable Judge Denise Dominguez, New York Civil Court and Fenix Arias, Associate Dean of Student Engagement and Success, Bronx Community College. The women became very popular with the audience and their motivational energy inspired many to get back on track in pursuing their own goals
In addition, the staff at SU campus honored two dedicated Children's Aid staff members, Hersilia Mendez, Director of External Affairs and Communications for National Center for Community Schools and Jennifer Archibald, Educational Coordinator at SU Campus, for their contributions to the Washington Heights community. Both were celebrated with awards and accolades from children, parents Children's Aid staff and elected officials. The office of Assemblymember Gabriela Rosa presented both with an official citation which praised both women's outstanding commitment to the children and families of Washington Heights.
7th Annual Women's Conference Honors Hersilia Mendez
Hersilia Mendez, Director of External Affairs and Communications for the National Technical Assistance Center for Community Schools, will be honored for her strong leadership and commitment at the Seventh Annual Professional Hispanic Women's Conference on Wednesday, March 19, 2014.
The conference will be held at the Salomé Ureña de Henríquez Campus at 4600 Broadway New York NY 10040. For more information, call Lydia Aguasanta at 212-942-1383 or Leila Arbaje at 718-663-9546.
How long have you been with The Children's Aid Society?
I have been with Children's Aid for 21 years – I began in 1993.
Describe how you became involved with CAS, up to your current position now.
I began in 1993 as the art consultant and instructor for P.S.5 and I.S.218, the two first Children's Aid Society flagship community schools. My job was to ensure that we provided high quality art programs during after school and summer. I was also teaching art at P.S. 5 and to the Intensive Care Education Program, a very successful intervention for at risk students at I.S. 218. I was fascinated by the community school concept; particularly the way they were welcoming immigrant parents into the schools and helping them engage with their childrens' schooling (something that I never saw in Forest Hills, where my children grew up). I became an active advocate of community schools and in 1995 was invited to join the National Technical Assistance Center for Community Schools (now National Center for Community Schools), founded in 1994, as Deputy Director. I became Director of External Affairs and Communications in 2010.
How do you feel about being honored at the 7th Annual Hispanic Women's Conference at SU campus?
It's a great honor, I feel humbled.
From your personal life, who is a female role-model that inspired you and how have they made an impact on your life?
It may sound too common place but my mother has been my role model. She was born in 1915 in a little town in the Pacific coast of Colombia. She was a "mulata" in a very racist and patriarchal/male dominated country. She was a woman ahead of her time. A feminist both at heart and active, that passed those values on to her three sons and three daughters. She was a highly accomplished professional and intellectual, who worked outside of the house until she died at the age of 75. She married my father when she was 32 years old (unheard of at the time) and was at my father's side when he died 42 years later. All of her six children have advanced academic degrees - she totally believed that education and equity go hand in hand. All to say, that she truly juggled being an amazing mother, a supportive wife and a very successful career women, at a time when most Colombian women were expected to be only housewives, or work at dead-end jobs. I'm grateful for being her daughter!
Historic or/and contemporary, who is a female role-model that inspires you and what has been their contribution to society?
Historic woman: Simone de Beauvoir, a French feminist, political activist, intellectual, writer and thinker. Reading her book "Memoirs of a Dutiful Daughter" when I was 15 years old, was central to the woman I became and still am. That book reaffirmed my mother's upbringing. I firmly believe in womens' rights as essential to human rights, and in the value of education, I also passed on those values to my daughter and my son, just as my mom did to us. Simone de Beauvoir was a big force behind the Women' Liberation Movement of the 60s, 70s and 80s –a liberating movement for millions of women around the world –unfortunately there is much still to be done, we need many more women of Beauvoir's caliber to inspire the new generations.
Contemporary Women: I'm inspired by many Dominican women that I've been in contact with in Washington Heights during my 21 years at Children's Aid. Lidia Aguasanta, for instance; I truly can write a book about this amazing woman that has inspired hundreds of community members (men, women and children) to develop their potential. Candita Suero, who against almost insurmountable odds raised a successful family. I believe in unsung heroines and heroes. I can go on and on. And of course I'm inspired by Hillary Clinton, she's fantastic.

Rising Together to Improve Outcomes for Bronx Children
Approximately one year ago, The Children's Aid Society and Phipps Neighborhoods joined forces to develop a cradle-through-college-and-career pathway initiative for the South Bronx. With a $300,000 planning grant from the JPMorgan Chase Foundation, the project employed an emerging model of multi-sector collaboration, known as collective impact, to promote student success in a community where 65 percent of children are born into poor families and just 7 percent of adults are college graduates.
On Friday, February 28, the newly named South Bronx Rising Together initiative, met its first goals. Leaders from the education, civic and nonprofit sectors convened at the Collective Impact Design Institute at Hostos Community College, in the heart of the South Bronx, to work on a set of objectives that included developing a common set of well-being and academic indicators of a college bound trajectory; how to support and partner with neighborhood schools; how to utilize data to identify student and community needs and monitor progress and how to connect them to community services and opportunities that reduce barriers to learning.
"It was important to have many key stakeholders there to help shape and guide this work. We received a tremendous amount of feedback – both affirming and critical – from the very energized and engaged group," said Abe Fernández, Director of Collective Impact at Children's Aid. "There is still much thinking and planning to do, of course, but we have what appears to be a strong foundation of support and a community of folks who are ready to work together to change the odds for kids in the South Bronx."
Collective impact—a strategy based on the premise that no single organization can affect large-scale, lasting social change alone—has already been applied successfully in areas such as Cincinnati through the Strive Together Partnership, which has seen an increase in Kindergarten readiness, high school graduation rates and college enrollment. South Bronx Rising Together will work to leverage its resources and mobilize any and all different sectors in the Bronx to help achieve the same kind of large-scale change.
As multi-service organizations with a trusted presence in the borough, Children's Aid and Phipps Neighborhoods currently enjoy strong partnerships with principals, as well as robust staffing within full-service community schools, community centers, health centers and housing developments. Together, the agencies help meet some of the most critical needs of the community, including after-school and summer programs; parent engagement programs; licensed health, dental and mental health services; Head Start and Early Head Start; work programs for disconnected youth; preventive services; work readiness programs; financial literacy programs; foster care; and domestic violence treatment. As a "backbone" to the collective impact strategy, the two agencies will continue to develop the infrastructure needed to bring stakeholders together to develop and respond to a common agenda in the South Bronx.

After being hailed as Britain's best Heavyweight hope for years, things took a shocking turn for the worst in February 2013 when David Price was beaten by Tony Thompson. A quickly arranged rematch saw him try to avenge that loss as swiftly as July, only for him to face his second defeat, and both to the same man.
Whilst David's career looked in tatters, his main rival Tyson Fury went from strength to strength in his campaign for World honours.
Roll forward a year and things have changed greatly as David explains; I signed with the Sauerland Brothers because it felt right at this time, I knew my career needed time to rebuild and undo the damage caused by the two defeats and felt this was the best route to achieve that.
I'm finding the new team very easy to work with and although I would never disrespect previous people I have been connected to – there is an obvious professionalism that comes with a major team.
I am early into my affiliation with them but things have been terrific so far. My last fight was a late replacement which was a little disappointing but at least I got back in the ring and laid some ghosts to rest.
People have obviously jumped on the negatives since my losses and have questioned my mental strength, but I can state categorically that I have no lack of believe in what I am trying to achieve, it's nonsense. There is a massive difference between permanent self doubt and pressure of an occasion. Fighting in front of 6000 People after a defeat adds intense pressure to a situation, and although I asked for the rematch the stakes were very high and it backfired.
I have had some great sparring over the last few weeks including one of my old adversaries Sam Sexton. He requested to come down and I accepted it gratefully – I think he was trying to avenge his loss to me, so sparring got pretty tasty – it was intense but a very good test.
In some ways the setback has helped me, I have only had 17 fights and was maybe 2 away from fighting Klitschko before the defeats, no way would I of been ready at that point.. I was very immature as a fighter and am still not full matured yet, this will come as I go along and at 30 I am not one bit concerned about time running out.
I am looking to fight 5 times this year. My next fight is on March 29th, the opponent is being finalised as we speak – then I'm back out in May in Scandinavia hopefully. My fight after that should be back home in the uk at the Echo Arena. We are focusing on looking to 2015 to be my year back in amongst the best and pushing on to better things. I realise the division is wide open and intend fully to get back into the reckoning.
When asked about other British Heavyweights he was very complimentary – Tyson Fury has to be respected, he is still undefeated – and once he is back in shape he should continue to up his opponents.
In relation to Anthony Joshua, I hope he isn't rushed like I was – what I've seen from him has really impressed me and thankfully he looks to have a good calm head on him, telling people to ease off and let him build at a pace he can learn his trade and concrete his boxing style.
Fans question from Lloyd Mapes was; if you could fight any heavyweight from the past who would it be and why?
David firstly stated his favourite heavyweight of all time was Lennox Lewis, but in relation to fighting a heavyweight from history – it would have to be Joe Frazier because the styles and reach would make it into a much more watchable and intriguing fight. Joe was one of the greatest and it would of been a honour to share the ring with him.

Cardiac surgeon and his colleagues have developed a biodegradable adhesive that can patch a hole in a pig's heart or artery. The experimental glue is nontoxic and is strong enough to hold up under the high pressures in the human heart, the team Wednesday in the journal Science Translational Medicine.
So far, they've tested the glue only in animals. So the sealant is far from reaching the operating room or battlefield. But del Nido hopes the adhesive will eventually replace traditional sutures and staples for some operations, especially heart surgery.
Sealant Inspired By Beach Worm Could Become Surgical Superglue

The experimental glue is nontoxic and is strong enough to hold up under the high pressures in the human heart, the team Wednesday in the journal Science Translational Medicine.
22 States Curb Access To Abortion In 2013
The year 2013 marked the 40th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion nationwide. It also marked another year of success for those who would restrict or even outlaw the procedure.
While much national attention was focused on efforts to restrict abortion in , a from the Guttmacher Institute reports that as many as 22 states enacted 70 provisions aimed at curbing access to abortion. That makes 2013 in the number of abortion restrictions enacted in a single year, according to the think tank for reproductive rights.
The Most Dangerous Things to Do on Your Phone While Driving
If Werner Herzog hasn't already convinced you not to touch your phone while driving, perhaps this will. Dialing a cellphone is the most dangerous thing you can do in a car, according to a new study from the New England Journal of Medicine, and increases your risk of crashing or nearly crashing eight-fold.
Researchers collected 12-18 months of driving data from 42 newly licensed teenaged drivers from southwestern Virginia, as well as from 109 more experienced motorists from Washington, all driving cars that had been outfitted with cameras, accelerometers, and GPS devices.
Justice Dept. opposes block on contraceptive mandate
The Obama administration on Friday called on Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor to lift her order temporarily blocking a part of the president's signature health care law that requires some religious-affiliated organizations to cover forms of contraception in their health care plans.
The Justice Department said in court papers filed Friday that the challenge to the contraceptive requirement, filed by the Catholic nuns of the Little Sisters of the Poor for the Aged, did not impose a "substantial burden" and the Denver-based nuns "fail to satisfy the demanding standard for the extraordinary and rarely granted relief they seek.''
Traditional Chinese Medicine Plant Found to Relieve Chronic Pain
A plant used in traditional Chinese medicine has been found to have potent pain-reliving properties, researchers have found.
The flowering plant Corydalis, a member of the poppy family, has been used for centuries for pain relief in Chinese medicine.
However, researchers have now found it contains a compound called dehydrocorybulbine (DHCB), which has the potential to lead to new drug therapies for people experiencing chronic pain.
A half million U.S. surgeries on knee cartilage may be unnecessary
Finnish researchers found repairing meniscal cartilage in the knee is no more effective than a placebo and about 500,000 U.S. surgeries may be unnecessary.
Adjunct Professor Teppo Jarvinen of the University of Helsinki and the Helsinki University Central Hospital and Raine Sihvonen of Hatanpaa Hospital in Tampere said the most common diagnosis of the knee that requires treatment is a tear in the meniscus -- the shock-absorbing cartilage of the knee. Most of the treated meniscal tears are degenerative -- caused by aging, not trauma.
"Let the Crime Spree Begin": How Fraud Flourishes in Medicare's Drug Plan
Today, credit card companies routinely scan their records for fraud, flagging or blocking suspicious charges as they happen. Yet Medicare's massive drug program has a process so convoluted and poorly managed that fraud flourishes, giving rise to elaborate schemes that quickly siphon away millions of dollars.
Frustrated investigators for law enforcement, insurers and pharmacy chains say they don't see evidence that Medicare officials are doing much to stop it.
"It's kind of a black hole," said Alanna Lavelle, director of investigations for WellPoint Inc., which provides drug coverage to about 1.4 million people in the program, known as Part D.

It was a gymkhana type show. Pretty small and local.
The owner had no problem with me handling her horse the way I did, she just was worried of what people thought.
Then it got me wondering if when I start bring my horses to shows will I be judged for telling them they can't do something, or giving them trouble...
I don't know if it's like this every where, but I find horse people here very judgmental and they gossip with each other about everyone, even if they act like they like the person there talking about.

It has been a busy year for Apple, although one could argue it has been more of a busy few months. The yearly updates for most of Apple's products now occur in September and October, and as a result we've seen the release of a number of new products and services in a very short period of time. On the hardware side we have the new iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, the iPad Air 2 and Mini 3, the iMac with Retina 5K display, and a preview of the upcoming Apple Watch.

Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2012, totaled $74.6 million, compared to $81.1 million for the comparable prior year period. Adjusted interest expense, as further defined below, for the three months ended December 31, 2012 was $59.3 million as compared to adjusted interest expense of $68.1 million in the comparable prior year period. The decrease was the result of lower interest expense on variable rate debt instruments primarily due to the refinancing of our credit agreement in November 2011.
Other income (expense), net, was income of $2.8 million in the current quarter compared to expense of $37.4 million in the comparable prior year period. Generally included in other income (expense), net, are losses from equity affiliates, foreign exchange gains and losses and interest and dividend income. Additionally, included in the prior year period are charges associated with the termination of certain interest rate swaps totaling $13.9 million and the write-off of previously deferred financing fees of $20.1 million related to the refinancing of our senior credit facility in November 2011.
Net earnings attributable to Mylan Inc. increased $32.5 million, or 25.1%, to $162.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012 as compared to $129.5 million for the prior year comparable period. Adjusted ear

As times have changed, so has the perception of health. Long ago, being pale and fair-skinned was considered attractive. Today, having a nice tan has become the norm. Young people, especially, feel as if they do not look healthy unless they have some color in their skin. In addition, modern media has used the power of suggestion to tell these young people that in order to be considered attractive it is necessary to have a tan.
It is important for everyone to have the facts about the damaging rays of the sun. If more people had this knowledge, then perhaps there would be fewer cases of skin cancer, especially in young people.

The dreaded waterboarding 'torture' technique – used by the US military during training exercises.
At his press conference today Barack Obama accused the United States of torture.
Obama drops drone bombs instead.
In his mind, it's more ethical.
The AP reported, via Free Republic:
President Barack Obama says in the immediate aftermath of 9/11, the United States did things that were wrong and crossed the line. He says, quote, "we tortured some folks."
Obama is commenting on a Senate investigation into the CIA's interrogation techniques. A report on that investigation's results is expected to be released in the coming weeks.
Obama says it's important to remember how horrified Americans were after 9/11. But he says it's important to remember the U.S. must live up to its values.
Obama also says he has full confidence in CIA Director John Brennan.

I was thinking this might be a good idea to try out. What about organizing some groups of people to just go out and capture skills. We can organize a group of 8 elementalists (primary and secondaries) to just go out and do a certain area to get a certain skills. Commonly I try to go capture a skill but the people in my group kill the dang guy to fast. But if we got a group together in here just to do that, we would not have to worry about it.
How I thought it would work would be someone to post a thread titled
Capture Mission - Area - Skill to capture such as:
Capture Mission - Thirsty River - Word of Healing
Then in the thread people could post a time, character names, and a Dist to meet up at. Be sure to post a time zone in your threads as well. I would be willing to lead some of these missions as well.
This could also be extended to cover quests that give skills as well but may not be as popular.

i cant say it has anything unique to offer next to the other serious synth apps like caustic or heat, but the sounds are great and the app is solid and the vintage look and feel are well emulated and that is inspiring in its own way, certainly a must have and up there with the best synth apps on the android market
(80 stars)
This is a really great app, the sound and control functionality are first rate. I would give it five stars but visually could use some improvement. It might be great on a tablet but everything seems tiny on a phone. Colors on the left for the piano roll don't stand out too clear. Better use of contrasting colors would be advised for an update.
(80 stars)
Finding apps that are reliable and user friendly enough to use live are hard to come by and the hunt is spendy. Audioid gives you nice representations of an 808 and 909 and classic fully programmable bass sequencers. Great effects as well. Thanks for the great app.

Hi. Actually i was looking for a similar application like the Rebirth 2. I am happy to say this is almost there! Of course some features are missing here like PCF. What i don't like: you cannot change the size of the patterns (speed of the notes changes). When i applied delay effect on one of the tb 303 i found that its volume was decreased. I was not able to save my project files to the sd card.

A bunch of stars in Hollywood are part of the same Bible study group, which meets once a month at the Beverly Hills Hotel. Some of the celebs who attend the monthly meetings are Selena Gomez and her on-again off-again boyfriend Justin Bieber. Justin's mom also attends and so does Selena's friend Vanessa Hudgens! We hear that the meetings include coffee and conversations, and a ton of other stars.
Selena and Justin may or may not be back together. The duo were spotted out together last weekend, and Selena was seen leaving Justin's home early in the morning the next day. However, Selena was carrying suitcases, leading some to believe she was taking all of her things home from Justin's for good.
Justin is in New York City this week getting ready for "Saturday Night Live." Let us know if you spot him!

The SEC Amends Money Market Rules
On Wednesday, July 23, 2014, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") adopted amendments to the rules governing money market mutual funds (or "money market funds") pursuant to Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("Investment Company Act" or "Act"). The amendments are designed to address money market funds' susceptibility to heavy redemptions in times of stress, improve their ability to manage and mitigate potential contagion from such redemptions, and increase the transparency of their risks, while preserving, as much as possible, their benefits.
The amendments remove the valuation exemption that permitted institutional non-government money market funds to maintain a stable net asset value per share, and require those funds to sell and redeem shares based on the current market-based value of the securities in their underlying portfolios rounded to the fourth decimal place. The amendments also give the boards of directors of money market funds the discretion to impose a liquidity fee if a fund's weekly liquidity level falls below a designated threshold or suspend redemptions temporarily. The amendments also require (unless the fund's board determines that imposing such a fee is not in the best interests of the fund) all non-government money market funds to impose a liquidity fee if the fund's weekly liquidity level falls below a designated threshold. Finally, the amendments require money market funds and investment advisers to certain large unregistered liquidity funds to report additional information to the SEC and to investors.

I have to side with tumbleweed35 I have tried all kinds of stuff even tried making some combinations of stuff. Varnish looks like the best to me it requires several coats but if done right its hard to beat it. A good spar varnish is hard as nails and will hold up ok but nothing stands the Florida sun for to long. The solar index in Florida and the Carib is about 97 so figure it out you can make a copper box like a bread box copper is close to the color of teak and you can cook your lunch in it. We had one some of us guys pop rivited togather and heated stuff like a microwave. The teak is cooking like that all day every day.

Solar Flare Collides With Earth Causing Disruptions
[ Watch the Video ]
A solar flare from Sunday collided with Earth on Tuesday, becoming the largest solar radiation storm since October 2003.
NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center has categorized the storm as "strong," or an S3, storm. These storms can affect satellite operations and short wave radio propagation, but do not cause any harm to humans on Earth.
Some polar flights, including a dozen Delta Air Lines planes, were re-routed to avoid communications lapses and exposing pilots and passengers to excessive radiation. The flight patterns of these planes flew over the North Pole.
"Many airliners have been avoiding the North Pole routes because they are more exposed to the proton storm, which disrupts High Frequency radio communications," Doug Beisecker, a space weather specialist at NOAA, said in a statement.
Some utility companies were forced to boost power to compensate for electrical interference. The storm also interfered with some satellite transmissions.
"This radiation storm is long lasting. These effects don't come around very often, but when they do you have to live with them for several days," Douglas Beisecker who monitored the solar storm from the government's Space Weather Prediction Center in Boulder, Colo., told CBS News.
The storm came from an eruption on the sun on January 22 of am M8.7 class flare. This coronal mass ejection (CME) was moving at about 1,400 miles per second.
Scientists have been expecting solar eruptions to become more intense as the sun enters a more active phase. They believe its 11-year cycle will peak in 2013.

Angels sticking to model
Posted: August 12, 2014 at 3:14 a.m.
ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Los Angeles Angels General Manager Jerry Dipoto stressed the importance of sticking to "our model" as the reason he won't pursue high-end free-agent pitching in the wake of an elbow injury that will sideline left-hander Tyler Skaggs through 2015.

Threats to coral reefs continue, says Paje
MANILA, Philippines—Environment Secretary Ramon Paje on Saturday said more action was needed to save the reefs of the Coral Triangle, an important marine area encompassing Asia Pacific countries, including the Philippines, in the face of growing threats to their ecosystems from overfishing, pollution and climate change.
While the Philippines has taken steps to protect its reefs and the marine life they host, more effort is necessary to develop sustainable solutions for the threatened reefs in the Coral Triangle, a global hot spot of marine biodiversity, Paje said.
"We face a crisis on the continued degradation of our fragile ecosystems and resources that could endanger the survival and quality of life of future generations," Paje said in a press release. "Investing in coastal and marine protection can certainly help ensure a better future for our children and a better environment for all."
Last week, the Coral Triangle Initiative (CTI)-Philippines National Coordinating Committee, which is co-chaired by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, and the Department of Agriculture, hosted a CTI Forum in Makati City.
The event also saw the launch of the Sustainable Coral Reef Ecosystem Management Program or SCREMP, designed by the Philippine government to more effectively protect and rehabilitate the coral reefs in the region.
SCREMP will focus on habitat conservation and protection, as well as enhancing public awareness and protection, to mitigate and reverse the damage brought by unsustainable human activities and climate change, Paje said.
The Coral Triangle also covers the exclusive economic zones of Indonesia, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands and East Timor.
The Coral Triangle is home to more than a third of the world's coral reefs, including over 600 different species of reef-building coral and 3,000 species of reef fish, providing food and income to more than 100 million people working in marine-based industries throughout the region.
"At the apex of the Coral Triangle or the world's center of marine biodiversity is the Philippines. We are one of the 18 megadiverse countries that contain 75 percent of the global biodiversity. And yet, we, too, are one of the hottest of the marine biodiversity hotspots in the world," Paje said.
According to a study by the World Resources Institute called "Reefs at Risk," about 85 percent of the reefs in the Coral Triangle are in peril. It noted that threats to the region come from overfishing, watershed pollution and coastal development.
Factors such as climate change and ocean acidification increase the number of threatened reefs to 90 percent, the study added.

No one even talks about sending him to jail. And it`s the same thing for a character like Abruzzi. I think people root for him because he`s just punishing people who are bad humans in a way. Always in movies and TV, in drama we always root for those characters. Even if they have killed four or five people, they have killed people that we`ve really disliked. They have done us a service. And he`s such a character. That`s why I`ve tried to keep him very Shakespearean. --talking about his character John Abruzzi from "Prison Break" (2005) - hey [the Coen Brothers] have an obsession with pancakes. It`s a Midwestern thing, I guess. I had never had pancakes. I grew up in , and I`m not a big fan of pancakes.

Images were taken by the satellite's panchromatic camera, which has a 0.8 metre resolution
Remote-sensing satellite Cartosat-2B has sent high quality images of the Indian landmass, including Allahabad in Uttar Pradesh and Madurai in Tamil Nadu.
The images were taken by the satellite's panchromatic camera, which has a high resolution of 0.8 metre. That is, it can image even small objects such as cycles and mopeds on the road, and sheep and cattle grazing on meadows.
The Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV-C15) of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) put Cartosat-2B and four other satellites in orbit on July 12. It was launched from Sriharikota.
P.S. Veeraraghavan, Director, Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC) in Thiruvananthapuram, said Cartosat-2B was in good health and that "it has taken a good number of pictures."
He said the images of Madurai included the famous Meenakshi temple with its gopurams (towers), the railway junction and a running train, the airport with parked aircraft, and another temple situated in the centre of a tank.
The images of Allahabad showed a fort in the town and the Triveni Sangam.
Three stages
The stacking up of the three stages of ISRO's Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV-F06) in the second launch pad at Sriharikota had begun on July 14 as planned, Mr. Veeraraghavan said. The GSLV-F06 would put in orbit a communication satellite called GSAT-5B.
The integration of the four stages of the PSLV-C16 will begin in the first launch pad in August. The rocket will put in orbit three satellites — Resourcesat – 2, Youthsat and a satellite from Singapore. Resourcesat-2 and Youthsat belong to India. Youthsat will carry a Russian payload as well.
The launch of GSLV-F06, according to the VSSC Director, would take place in October. The PSLV-C16 would lift off two weeks later.
