Canada Geese are impressively smart birds. However, they can be a great nuisance especially when they conquer your space. In order to effectively deal with these annoying birds, you have to know the reason why they are inside your property. Is it something to do with their lifestyle? Or it is just their nature to be landing on random places?
One of the most prominent traits of birds is being instinctive. Their instincts tell them to reproduce and find shelter and food source. Therefore, the best thing that you can do is to install bird deterrents to prevent them from coming. This way, the Geese will be forced to find another place to build their nesting spots and find food.
On the other hand, if the nuisance Geese are already around your property, the best thing to do is to find a humane way to get rid of them. One popular way to keep Geese out is to chase them away with dogs. Most people agree that Border Collies are perfect for goose-chase. They are intelligent dogs with an almost limitless energy supply. These dogs actually find fun in running around and chasing geese away. However, between June 16 and July 20, it is prohibited to use dogs in harassing geese. This period is crucial top geese because the majority of them are flightless due to wing molt and gosling maturation.
|Image from http://www.fws.gov/midwest/desoto/wildlife.htm
Nevertheless, it is always necessary to know how to properly control Geese when the situation requires it. Although these birds can be important to parks and entertainment businesses, they can become a real bother to residential areas, school grounds, golf courses,and commercial establishments. Industrial buildings with wide rooftops frequently suffer from excessive goose droppings, as well. So, unless you have free, open space to accommodate geese, their presence could really destroy your property or affect your profits.
Hence, apart from chasing them with dogs, you must find a feasible, humane way to control geese. You can utilize both sound and visual deterrents, which scare away geese without causing them any harm. In addition, it is important to switch from one deterring method to another, in order to make sure that the geese will not develop some sort of "immunity" to a particular product or method.
It is not impossible to keep geese out. All you need to do is to find an effective deterrent that can be considered safe and humane for these birds. With the proper method, you can live peacefully without hurting a single feather.

Full text not available from this repository.
Our department has been offering routine rectal chlamydia testing to all individuals reporting ano-receptive sex since 2002. We wanted to determine the prevalence of rectal chlamydia and if there were any factors associated with a positive diagnosis. A retrospective case-notes analysis was performed of all individuals tested for rectal chlamydia from November 2002 until March 2005. In total, 1187 case-notes were examined. Overall, the prevalence of chlamydia infection was 8.5%; in asymptomatic individuals, it was 5.1%. There was a positive association with chlamydia infection in patients who were HIV-positive, those who reported rectal symptoms and from samples in which microscopy of a rectal smear demonstrated >10 polymorphonuclear cells/high power field. The findings support our continuing to offer rectal chlamydia screening to patients attending our service. Chlamydia trachomatis infection should be considered as a possible diagnosis in patients who present with rectal symptoms outside a genitourinary medicine clinic setting.

About the Pub
Overlooking the River Teme and the Ludford bridge, the Charlton Arms is a modern comfortable pub with a good restaurant and en-suite accommodation. Formerly known as the Red Lion and home of the defunct Ludford Brewery, this independently owned pub offers at least three and often 4 local beers. The cosy bar has a big fire in the middle with a couple of nooks for quiet drinking if you do not wish to follow the Sky news on the TV on the bar. There are several pleasant outdoor drinking areas overlooking the river, but in particular, try the upstairs terrace. The views of the town, river, bridge and surrounding hills are a delight. Live music is often available and the pub plays an active part in community life. In January 2014 Cedric and Amy Bosi, of the renowned family of restaurateurs, took on the lease at the Charlton.

But to do so would be dishonest to the 12-year-old me who first played AVP in 1999Now I feel old.
I remember playing this at uni on the first PC I bought with my own money. The marine campaign was terrifying at 4am (further heightened by a couple of litres of Asda own brand Red Bull substitute).
Sadly what AvP2 gained in polish it lost in atmosphere and character. I'm pretty sure I finished it but it never had the same feeling of isolation and threat. Reply +14

@marcofdeath except Hynix weren't producing HBM in 2013, they're only supposed to start ramping up production in the second half of this year, so it doesn't look like either console is using it.
Besides, Chipworks have done a teardownn of the XB1.

@Suarez07, there's a tweet about the XBone AO on the NeoGAF thread.
You can actually see it in the last comparison shot quite well in the DF article. Look at the guy on the left's gun and you'll see it shadow the elevator doors on the PS4 and PC images. Also this comparison shows it pretty well here. Reply 0
@Suarez07, DICE have already commented that the XB1 version is not final anyway, it doesn't have AO enabled.
For a proper comparison of the game I'd wait for DF to compare final builds anyway. Enabling AO, and possibly AA, will most likely reduce the framerate further. With any luck DF will get better captures to work with when they don't have limited access, I interpreted the article as them capturing each platform on separate days.
As it stands the comparison confirms what most people have been saying for a while, that the PS4 is more powerful and the XB1 versions of games are lagging behind in development. Reply +4
Editor's blog: Battlefield 4 Face-off Preview Q&A
The big question is - if ambient occlusion affects light as it hits a surface based on the surface itself and adds a softening effect similar to ambient light, does this combined with the limited RGB of the XB1, mean that when AO is added to the X1 version, we'll see similar softening as is appearing in the PS4 version?While it is true that AO tends to give a smooth shading effect it should not impact the clarity of texture detail in the final image, just darken areas of the image.
It's more likely that the PS4 version is applying an additional shader based AA or motion blur pass that blurs the image. In the case of character faces in particular this could be part of the sub-surface scattering applied to skin.
Fixing the RGB output of the XB1 will certainly reduce the contrast in the images, the DF captures make many textures appear "sharper" than those in the PC exemplar. Reply +4

I'm beginning to suspect they designed a system that could render 360 games at 1080p and didn't expect developers to do anything beyond that. Reply +1
Introducing Games of the Generation
I think the current gen still has a year or two in it, at least on some platforms. Will certainly be keeping an eye on these lists to see if there is anything really awesome that I've missed though.
Not sure what my top 5 would be but I think Nier, Uncharted and Assassin's Creed 2 are definitely up there. Reply 0
Kingdom Hearts 3 PS4, Xbox One gameplay video
@Rogueywon, the cutscenes for Re:Coded and 356/2 Days are included in the HD remakes on PS3, so there's at least an option to avoid playing those two.
No idea what they're planning to do with 3D regarding the HD remakes. Maybe a digital Final Mix closer to KH3 release... Reply 0
Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast retrospective
I put a ridiculous amount of time into this game, and Jedi Academy, mostly just reloading checkpoints to replay fights over and over again, it never got dull. I think only Bushido Blade came anywhere near these games for visceral melee combat.
That Lucas Arts could make such a mess of the Force Unleashed when these games existed is probably proof enough that they had no idea what they were doing. For all its gritty and dark atmosphere, watching Starkiller try to beat a storm trooper to death with his Fisher Price Padawan's first lightsabre was just sad. Reply +5
Assassin's Creed 4 director wants to take the series to ancient Egypt
I'm no historian, but could someone enlighten me on this "recent evidence"?I'm no historian either, but I think he might be referring to the discovery of towns built to house the workers who built the pyramids. These apparently show that the pyramids were built by gangs of seasonal labourers, rather than slaves as previously thought.
I don't think this is evidence that slaves weren't used in ancient Egypt, just that the pyramids weren't built by armies of slaves but instead large numbers of normal Egyptians.

Digital Foundry: the complete Xbox One architects interview
@khanthony, the main issue is that newer techniques may not be picked up by third parties who will want their games to be playable on all major platforms.
In the previous generation full deferred shading was largely limited to Sony first party titles because it was not suitable on the 360 which would not support a G-Buffer larger than 10MB. Reply +2
@Kretenn, there is a difference between making a subjective comparison of Forza 5's graphics to other next gen titles and looking critically at the techniques they're using. Aside from an increase in resolution and quality, they don't appear to be doing a great deal that they didn't already have implemented in some form on Forza 4. The results look good, but they don't say anything about the graphics capabilities of the XB1.
I would take Goossen's figures regarding ROPs with a pinch of salt. There is only a direct relationship between bandwidth and fillrate if none of the pixels are being rejected (depth/alpha testing). 16 ROPs will be suitable for scenes with little overdraw, like those in Forza 5 or Ryse, which to the best of my knowledge, is running at 900p 30fps. The fact that the game with the highest rate of overdraw, Dead Rising 3, is using dynamic resolution suggests that they are already having problems with fillrate or shading.
Considering for the latter part of the current generation PC graphics have been largely crippled by the capabilities of both consoles, it would be a shame if PC and PS4 are held back by the limitations of the XB1 due to its GPU and RAM set up.
Even the architects sound like they were disappointed with some of the compromises they had to make, rejecting GDDR5 and then a potentially much larger eDRAM pool. They certainly made the best system they could within the constraints they had, but they were pretty unlucky in what they had available to work with. Reply +1
@Ninja_skill, the cloudlight examples are really interesting and the latency figures might suggest the calculations could also be done locally across multiple frames.
I'm not sure I'd expect games to be using the cloud for these sort purposes any time soon though. It would require GPU based servers, like NVidia's GRID and probably consumes hundreds of times more computing power than Titanfall uses for its servers. Even at a reduced rate and sharing data across multiple users that doesn't sound viable. Reply +1
@khanthony, not to downplay Azure, which is a very interesting resource, but I do think Sony also has a strength in their online offering.
At least for the present, PSN is a much more open platform than Live, allowing developers to use their own servers and allow cross platform play, which is why games like FF:XIV, Timesplitters and War Thunder are being released on PS4 but not XB1.
As with the hardware architectures, these are two very different approaches so it should be interesting see how things pan out. Reply 0
@SF1, we've heard about hardware for encoding and decoding audio and video on PS4. So it does certainly have some fixed function hardware. Though most of what is confirmed has come from interviews early on after the reveal. There are also some nice details about their hUMA setup but they're pretty technical.
I agree it would be very nice to have Sony publish an overview of the system architecture as a whole to be able to make more direct comparisons. Reply +4
@CMcK, the distinction I'd make between the Cell on the PS3 and the GPU on the PS4 is that there is nowhere near as much requirement to use it for any particular purpose.
The Cell chip effectively gave the PS3 only 33% of the CPU of the 360, the rest of it being made up of SPUs which required very specific program architecture. In the case of the PS4 (based on current clockspeed and accounting for SHAPE) it has maybe 80% of the CPU power of the XBox as well as having 50% additional GPU compute.
To balance the comparison of the two next gen consoles: I'd probably say that if the PS4 uses brute force, it also has more flexibility in how those resources are applied. The XB1 is perhaps more efficient in the resources it has, but it is much more rigid in how those can be used.
A good comparison of these from launch titles would be Forza 5 and KZ:SF. Forza 5 makes excellent use of the XBox system capabilities, but it could probably be implemented with only minor changes on the PS4. KZ:SF pushes heavy graphics workloads for its lighting and rendering, making use of a huge G-buffer (5 floating point buffers), which could not be replicated on the XBox. Reply +3
Ultimately this generation of consoles are very similar and it will be fascinating to see which approach works well most consistently. The brute force approach Sony have taken or the efficient approach Microsoft have chosen.Not picking on you in particular, but why do people think the XBox is more efficient than the PS4, or that the PS4 approach is brute force?
You could equally say, overclocking the whole system and tacking on multiple fixed function processors is brute force, and adding extra CUs and ACEs with flexible memory access is a more elegant/efficient solution.
These are clearly two very different solutions to enhancing what is effectively the same base hardware, it just seems odd that they're characterised in this way. Reply +7
@Ninja_skill, I think you're right, virtual memory on the GPU goes far beyond just more efficient use of texture memory, although that is a big improvement.
Sony have already presented an example of sparse voxel cone tracing for lighting using PRT in their GDC presentation on PSSL. It should be interesting to see what developers are going to do with this stuff and hUMA. Reply 0
@khanthony, the article you posted a link to earlier suggests that GNMX, the high level API, is actually closer to D3D11 than OpenGL. Along with PSSL being very similar to HLSL, but with lower level access to hardware, helps developers port games from PC to PS4.
"Most people start with the GNMX API which wraps around GNM and manages the more esoteric GPU details in a way that's a lot more familiar if you're used to platforms like D3D11.- Reflections' expert programmer Simon O'Connor

@OrbitScant, Interesting. The first slide about different heaps and buses puts me in mind of the interview with The Crew developers.
There's a lot more detail here:
http://www.vgleaks.com/playstation-4-includes-huma-technology/ Reply +2
@deesmith, I think a lot of misconceptions arise from people automatically assuming OpenGL is the only alternative to D3D. Although Sony did implement OpenGL ES as a high level alternative to GCM on PS3.
The DirectX on PS4 comes from DirectX versions being used to describe GPU feature sets. Both consoles use the same Sea Islands architecture and both support the DX11.2+ feature set, only the XBox supports the actual D3D11.2 API with the PS4 accessing the same features through GNM and GNMX (although GNMX could be a clone of the D3D11.2 interface with their own implementation). Reply +6
Sony's reliance on OPENGL actually may limit optimization on some levels because they do not own the OpenGL codebase which by its nature cannot cater to any specific hardware. This may be why they have less actual AAA games at launch for exclusives - just a guess.There isn't actually any one OpenGL code base. It's an open interface standard that platform holders have to implement themselves in order to support it.
This is pretty moot as the PS4 doesn't support OpenGL. The developers of The Crew have stated that Sony are using their own low level graphics API called GNM (possibly similar to mantle) and a high level API wrapper with source code called GNMX (possibly similar to D3D11). Reply +7
The more I read about the lengths to which Microsoft went to build multimedia functions into the XBox the more it sounds like a big gamble. They're betting on the strength of their gaming brand to get these features into homes and then try to expand that market.
However, a lot of this stuff sounds like it would be better built into a TV than a console (snap, Kinect, etc.). There are already multiple HDMI inputs, it's the main device used for all these features so it's the first to be turned on.
They might have been better partnering with TV manufacturers to push Windows OS, Kinect and smart glass functionality than creating a hybrid set top box/console. Reply +2
It's interesting that MSoft always talk about cache coherent memory bandwidth and never mention the fact that PS4 can bypass the L1 & L2 caches completely.Indeed, Cerny was also very specific about adding extra flags to allocations so they could selectively flush GPU cache lines to maintain coherence. Without this the GPU would stall completely each time coherence needed to be enforced, flushing all cache data regardless of whether it was GPGPU or graphics related.
I assume Microsoft would have the same problem but they don't go into that much detail. Reply +4
My take on it is that when you buy a graphics card, do you go by the specs or do you actually run some benchmarks?Does he mean two AMD Radeon cards in the same family?
If so, it's more of a price/performance trade off than a question of which is more powerful, I wouldn't expect a 7850 to outperform a 7870 but I would expect it to cost less... Reply +16
Reading the interview in full was much better than the articles it spawned, I appreciate seeing the points put across in order and their full context. Though I can understand that so much text is daunting.
I get the feeling that Microsoft have been very insular, developing the console based solely on their own internal goals and experiences where Sony have made a point about reaching out to third parties.
There's a lot of emphasis on multi-tasking behind the earliest decisions (8GB DDR3, virtualisation) clearly looking to expand their market and feature set beyond gaming.
Their gaming related choices seem to be informed largely by the design of the 360 (eSRAM, CPU, fixed function offload, Kinect) and its strong market position and ignoring some of its inherent weaknesses (difficulty with deferred shading).
When they talk about tweaking their setup (overclocks and CU numbers) with regards to existing titles, they seem to be doing so with exclusives, software that has already been balanced to run on their architecture. Obviously if a game has little emphasis on shader processing (is not pushing the limits of 12CUs) then an increase in the number of CUs will have virtually no impact on performance.
The performance of multi-platform titles will say an awful lot about how well Microsoft's own priorities and balance fit with the industry at large, and by extension how well Sony have delivered too. Reply +26

Microsoft to unlock more GPU power for Xbox One developers
I'm a fairly technically minded person but I can't figure out whether or not this is true.It's a fairly laboured example designed to prove a point about balance.
It predicts that developers would enable depth testing without having it reject any pixels (no overdraw), which defeats the point of depth testing.
If any pixels were rejected, by their own calculations, they'd be ROP bound with only 16 ROPs. If they turned off depth testing they'd still be eSRAM bandwidth limited because they'd hit the 109GB/s limit for writes (even if they had more than 16 ROPs).
Also as RL points out they're completely ROP bound when rendering 8 Bytes per pixel (4 read, 4 write), such as when rendering shadows or Z-pre-pass.
Edit: As Goossen says:
parts of the frame can be fill-rate bound, other can be ALU bound, others can be fetch bound, others can be memory bound, others can be wave occupancy bound, others can be draw-setup bound, others can be state change bound, etc. To complicate matters further, the GPU bottlenecks can change within the course of a single draw call!The bigger the number, the less likely a part of the GPU will be the bottleneck. Hence bigger numbers, better performance for those parts of the pipeline. Reply +2
Just like our friends we're based on the Sea Islands family.In the last article Goossen confirmed both consoles were using the same GPU architecture. Reply +3
@DopeBoy3010, yes, apparently the ps4 has a similar chip for scaling and compositing, although only for two layers rather than three.

Could AMD's Mantle revolutionise PC gaming?
@_tangent, the fully programmable graphics pipeline was a future direction, I don't think there will be much information available.
At the moment graphics pipelines are split up into various stages, some of which are fully programmable through shaders and others which offer limited fixed functionality (like blending, raster operations, etc.). I think what AMD were talking about is writing C++ like code that compiles for the GPU and actually writing libraries to implement the whole rendering process in software.
It sounds like a future that Intel and Sony et al were reaching for with Larrabee and Cell. Reply +2
@_tangent, I really don't know enough about architecture at that level to know how similar they are between manufacturers. Although they must have similarities in architecture due to supporting all the same graphics pipeline stages on existing APIs.
That said, I think it should be possible to go lower level than D3D and OpenGL. Compute languages are already exposing features like memory and thread management at a much lower level so you could add interfaces for fixed function graphics elements too.
AMD have already talked about doing away with specific graphics features altogether in their GCN/HSA presentations, just using programmable units. Reply +3
@_tangent, yeah it goes to illustrate just how much more compute power is available in GPUs.
I'd imagine CUDA would be much more efficient than using old style GPGPU tricks, both in terms of performance and in terms of developing algorithms without having to work around the fixed function elements of the pipeline.
DirectX now has DirectCompute as an equivalent to CUDA but that may well be built on top of CUDA for Nvidia GPUs anyway so may not have any benefits other than portability. Reply +3
@MattEvansC3, yeah, an API is an Application Programming Interface, it exposes certain functions to a program independent of their implementation.
OpenGL and Direct3D are both graphics APIs while the CUDA APIs allow developers to use the CUDA platform in their program.
Edit: CUDA isn't a language as such but a platform that can be used to extend existing languages to support running programs on Nvidia GPUs. Reply +2
@MattEvansC3, I'm sure CUDA is NVidia's language for GPGPU, similar to OpenCL, rather than a graphics API like Mantle. Reply +3
I seems to me the similarity to libGNM is more on a conceptual level rather than being directly similar from a development pov.Will be interesting to find out more about this.
I was about to point out that PS4 and XBO support GCN. The recent Edge article suggested PS4 APIs and drivers were ahead of XBox, it might be because they were working with AMD collaboratively on the API.
Personally I'd be happy with conceptually close APIs anyway. If there are equivalent structures and functions available it's pretty simple to smooth out any syntactic differences. Reply +3

Making Do
I'll admit, I left some of my Christmas shopping to the last minute this year. But as of today I'm all done. Next comes the fun part... wrapping! I'm always interested in figuring out new and creative ways to wrap presents, and since I've conveniently run out of wrapping paper the week before Christmas, I've decided that I'm going to try and make do with what I have instead of going out to buy paper.
Since I found some pretty great ideas, I thought I'd share them with you and hopefully inspire you to recycle/upcycle and get creative!
Since I found some pretty great ideas, I thought I'd share them with you and hopefully inspire you to recycle/upcycle and get creative!
Use a sewing pattern to wrap your boxes! They also make fabulous bows or would be ideal as a substitute for tissue paper.
Jazz up a brown paper bag. The scalloped edge is such a sweet detail.
I love this idea! I'm always coming across beautiful silk scarves but I so rarely wear them. Now I can pick them up and keep them on hand for wrapping. Bonus.... a little extra gift for your loved one.
Using a doily to wrap a Christmas gift is pretty apres pos for this time of year since they look so much like snow flakes. This would look great with red and green accents.
Now that I have all these great ideas, I know what I'll be doing tonight!!

New and Improved
If there is one room in our house that really gets messy, it's our basement. Laundry room, store room, work room, jam space, the basement is all of these things. So naturally if it's not organized a mess is inevitable. Recently I've put my best foot forward and downsized my craft space and I've tried to put together a cozy nook to craft in. A few days ago I finally put together a gallery wall, and found a place for vintage tins, and a set of vintage filing drawers, and suddenly it all started to come together. It's pretty comfortable down there now, and I've been enjoying spending time with myself and a couple of busy hands... Just in time for some Christmas crafting time!

The Best Gift
When I was younger I loved writing letters. Addressing the envelope, adding little gifts inside, licking the stamps and putting it in the mail slot. I had a few pen pals growing up and writing to them once a month was a treat. Getting a letter back, now that was even better! There is something about a written letter that email will never achieve. Don't get me wrong, I love the convenience of email and probably couldn't go without it now, but I miss the anticipation of getting a letter in the mail. I will admit now, that I'm not as disciplined as I once was with correspondence, but I always like to send out at least a few holiday cards this time of year.
The first year Clayton and I were married, we went all out, and made loads of handmade Christmas cards for friends and family. It was a lot of work, but the effort was appreciated. This year, I made up a few homemade cards to send to family. I know I love a good Christmas card, and knowing that someone has you in their thoughts around the holidays is a wonderful notion that is gift enough for me.
The card I made this year was post card style with a simple greeting so that I could write a little note on the back. It was simple, and vintage inspired. Just my style!
One more thing before I go, don't forget about the pop up shop tomorrow! It's looking like it's going to be a great day! Hope to see you there.

Holiday Spirit
Last week I finally got some time to decorate the house for Christmas. Nothing fancy this year. I just put the tree up and left it at that. I'll be honest, I'm not big on Christmas, and I usually decorate only because I can't resist the urge to fluff our pad. Not to mention all you wonderful bloggers out there really make Christmas decorating and crafting irresistible....
This year I went with sparkles and colour, and instead of white lights, a little more shimmer with colourful lights.
Ever since I put the tree up, I've felt Christmas in the air. Nothing like a little festive beauty to knock the scrooge out of me... Have you decorated for the holidays?
p.s. have you heard?? I'll be set up with the Pop-Up Shop this Saturday at Isabella's again! It's been so fun hanging out with Rosanna and friends. I'm looking forward to another Saturday afternoon of vintage fun. As always there are new items, and I'll be bringing the men's stuff along with a bargain $5 bin. Come on out for a coffee and a treat and get some holiday shopping in!

The Rebel
There are some days where you wake up and you just aren't feeling like yourself. Today is one of those days. Grumpy, and moody, and tired. Perhaps this is why I bought these boots last week. To wear on those days I am feeling particularly rough and tough. But all theory aside, these boots are fabulous. I keep glancing over at them from my desk feeling happy and excited at the possibility of styling one bad ass outfit. So I guess the lesson here is that a $12 purchase at the thrift store can really change my mood. Cheers to you motorcycle boots!

Taking A Breather
Sometimes it feels so good to stop what you are doing and take some time to sit, relax, and create. I've always gotten a very calming satisfaction from crafting. Last night I took some time from this crazy week I've been having and learned how to do felting! This is probably my new favourite craft. My first project was a Christmas tree ornament, and then I started making a little bird.
The felting I learned is called dry felting (as opposed to wet felting or knit felting) It's not messy, doesn't take up space and only requires one tool. Try it out yourself. I highly recommend it!!

Black and Gold
Some colours are just meant to go together. Black and gold is one of those combinations, and I took full advantage of the festive season to be able to wear two pretty sparkly numbers this weekend.
Fridays was a work holiday party, so I kept it sleek with a hit of gold sparkle topped of with red lips...
Saturday's look was so fun! I had picked up the dress earlier in the week on a drop in to the thrift store. It need a little shortening, but was a perfect little dress for a day at the pop-up shop. Styled with a little poofy low ponytail, and black flats with a bow (not pictured)
Try out some gold and black for yourself!

The week before Hurricane Sandy turned the East Coast upside down, American Express and other companies joined the Taproot Foundation in celebrating Pro Bono Week.
We participated by hosting a Scope-a-thon, an effort to engage our employees in helping to scope projects from nonprofits in order to prepare them to more fully benefit from pro bono consulting in the future.
We had 35 American Express employees in our New York office assist 11 nonprofits in a three-hour marathon Scope-a-thon. The nonprofits included:
- Brooklyn Public Library
- City Parks Foundation
- Creative Alternatives of New York
- GallopNYC
- God's Love We Deliver
- Historic House Trust
- Japan Society
- Neighborhood Housing Services of NYC
- New York Blood Center
- Reel Works Teen Filmmaking
- Studio Museum in Harlem
The Taproot Foundation did a terrific job of structuring the conversation around these four questions:
1. First, what hurts?
2. Next, what are some ways to fix it?
3. So, what's the specific prescription?
4. And finally, what's the treatment plan?
The response from both employees and nonprofits was extremely positive. 100 percent of employees said that they would participate again and refer the program to a colleague. One employee went so far as to say that it was her "best day" at American Express. Read the rest of this entry »

NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said he is concerned over the recent reports from the eastern Ukraine that mark a serious escalation of the crisis in the region, NATO press service told Interfax-Ukraine.
"I am concerned about reports that pro-Russian armed gangs are acquiring heavy weapons from Russia, including Russian tanks. We have seen reports that Russian tanks and other armored vehicles may have crossed the border into eastern Ukraine. If these reports are confirmed, this would mark a serious escalation of the crisis in eastern Ukraine," Rasmussen said. He once again urged Russia " to complete the withdrawal of its military forces on the border with Ukraine, to stop the flow of weapons and fighters across the border, and to exercise its influence among armed separatists to lay down their weapons and renounce violence." "We call on the Russian Federation to meet its Geneva commitments and cooperate with the government of Ukraine as it implements its plans for promoting peace, unity and reform," the NATO Secretary General said.

Buffalo Bills backup RB Tashard Choice and other teammates are bothered by New England Patriots LB Brandon Spikes' celebratory display after injuring starting running back Fred Jackson with a crushing hit in the 4th quarter of the Patriots' win on Sunday. Spikes has become an unpopular man in Buffalo and beyond this season as he ramps up his playmaking ability. Just the opposite here in New England though, where his popularity with fans is increasing.

The Gambia's honorary consul in Angolahas told the Daily Observer that six Gambianshave been arrested in Angola for attempting to enter that country illegally, and will soon be deported.
Hajji Jawara made this disclosure during a recent telephone interview with this reporter from his residence in Angola. He said the six men were arrested by Angolan immigration officials while trying to enter the country through its border withtheDemocratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
According to Jawara, the six Gambians have been in prison for two months. He also disclosed that four other Gambians are in prison for the same offence. He explained that this is not the first time the six are being arrested for illegal entry to Angola, as they were among eight Gambians who were previously arrested and deported back to The Gambia, but tried to re-enter Angola. "I am not denying any Gambian to travel to Angola but they should acquire proper and valid documents so that they will not face difficulties like deportation or being kept prison," Jawara added.

Renowned actor Ferruccio Soleri plays Italian theatre classic
Renowned commedia dell'arte actor Ferruccio Soleri, together with Piccolo Teatro di Milano, will perform the Italian theatre classic "Arlecchino, Servant of Two Masters" from October 26 to 28.
Written in 1747 by Carlo Goldoni, one of Italy's greatest playwrights, "Arlecchino, Servant of Two Masters" is a commedia dell'arte masterpiece. Rich in farcical action, improvisation and humour, the late Giorgio Strehler, artistic director and founder of Piccolo Teatro di Milano, revived the play, letting it shine on stage once again. This time, the show is restaged by Ferruccio Soleri in collaboration with Stefano de Luca.
Artful servant Arlecchino is constantly complaining of an empty stomach. So when a strange twist of fate lands him with two masters, he sees this as a great opportunity to gain a double meal ticket. However, life is never simple and he is soon caught up in a web of deceit and misunderstandings spun around the people he serves.
The 78-year-old Soleri, who first played Arlecchino in 1963, has since appeared in the role in more than 2,000 performances. For more than 40 years, in his special black mask and colourful Harlequin outfit, the great performer has crossed all age and language barriers, bringing enjoyment to audiences worldwide and making the role his own.
Commedia dell'art is a form of comic theatre developed in Italy in the 16th and 17th centuries. Built on both the verbal ability and physical stamina of actors, performances were improvised from a general plot description. Actors wore distinctive costumes and masks to identify stock characters that audiences immediately recognised.
Piccolo Teatro di Milano was one of Italy's first examples of public theatre - a theatre subsidised by the government and local authorities. Founded by Giorgio Strehler, Paolo Grassi and Nina Vinchi in 1947, Piccolo Teatro di Milano was one of Italy's first artistic ventures after the Second World War. Over the years, Strehler staged numerous classical dramas from Shakespeare to Goldoni to Chekhov, along with many of the greatest works of 20th century drama.
Following the death of founders Strehler and Grassi, the state appointed two leading figures from the world of culture to manage and direct the Piccolo theatre: Sergio Escobar, and the internationally celebrated stage director Luca Ronconi. Under their direction the Piccolo has continued and increased its role as a Theatre of Art for Everybody, remaining faithful to its policy of staging the classics and contemporary plays by Italian and foreign writers. It has likewise enhanced its international reputation; every year, since 1999, the Piccolo has organised an international festival with companies coming to perform from around the world.
"Arlecchino, Servant of Two Masters" is one of the highlights of the Mediterranean Arts Festival. It will be staged on October 26 and 27 at 7.30pm and on October 28 at 2.30pm at the Sha Tin Town Hall Auditorium. The shows will be presented in Italian with English and Chinese surtitles.
Tickets priced at $420, $280 and $150 are available at URBTIX outlets. Some $150 seats may have restricted view. Half-price tickets are available for full-time students, senior citizens, people with disabilities and Comprehensive Social Security Assistance recipients. Booking discounts of up to 20% are available.
Programme brochures are now available at URBTIX outlets or at the website
For programme enquiries, please call 2370 1044. Telephone reservations can be made on 2734 9009 and credit card telephone bookings on 2111 5999. Internet bookings can be made at

- nivolumab
A fully human monoclonal antibody directed against the negative immunoregulatory human cell surface receptor PD-1 (programmed death-1 or programmed cell death-1/PCD-1) with immunopotentiation activity. Nivolumab binds to and blocks the activation of PD-1, an Ig superfamily transmembrane protein, by its ligands PD-L1 and PD-L2, resulting in the activation of T-cells and cell-mediated immune responses against tumor cells or pathogens.
Activated PD-1 negatively regulates T-cell activation and effector function through the suppression of P13k/Akt pathway activation. Check for active clinical trials using this agent. (NCI Thesaurus)
Synonym: anti-PD-1 human monoclonal antibody MDX-1106 US brand name: Opdivo Code names: BMS-936558

While Hayek, by contrast, is more slippery and much less helpful when it comes to determining what government should actually do.
Then we move on, and we require [Austrian economists Ludwig] von Mises and [Friedrich von] Hayek as well.
Thank God, then, for Friedrich Hayek, whose ideas animate the Tea Party—whether all of its members know it or not.

Beyonc� Pregnant With Second Child, Say Sources
Several sources near Beyonc� and Jay-Z have confirmed that the couple is expecting their second child.
Confirmation of the rumors by several sources, none of which are Beyonc� or Jay-Z's representatives, come after the singer canceled a show from her Mrs. Carter tour in Belgium on May 14 due to exhaustion and dehydration.
However, Bey performed at her scheduled May 15 show in a form-fitting bodysuit and told the crowd:
"Now, my doctors told me not to perform tonight, but there was no way in the world. I just have to say, I feel so good to be on this stage. I have the best fans in the world."
Rumors of her second pregnancy began earlier this month after the singer appeared in a high-waisted Givenchy dress at the Met Gala and said she and her husband were hoping to give their daughter, 16-month-old Blue Ivy, a brother or sister soon.
In an appearance on Good Morning America last week, she added: "I would like more children. I think my daughter needs company."

Style: BJJ--
advantages and disadvantages.
If you get in an "Osoto vs. Osoto" duel the guy with the longer legs and body will probably win. But being the short stalky guy will stop people from getting under you for O-Goshi or a Seo. If I fight a taller guy I tend to be more defensive and wait for something to counter. If I have the reach advantage I am more offence.
I agree with the previous poster that ne-waza doesn't seem to make much difference.

It took me a while to get into the new mystery chick lit sub-genre, but now that I am in it, I'm hooked – completely, for which I have Red Dress Ink to thank so far! Sex, Murder and a Double Latte by Kyra Davis is the third such release from Red Dress Ink – and I hope there are many more to come.
Our main heroine Sophie Katz is a mystery-writer with quite an imagination. She has just about completed her latest novel when she hears the bad news: famous movie producer Michael Tolsky has committed suicide. Sophie thinks it is odd that his "suicide" was done just as a scene in his movie was done. Also, Tolsky was supposed to be making one of Sophie's books into a movie. Needless to say, she is a bit upset. Things don't get much better when other people begin dropping like flies around her – and their deaths begin resembling scenes from one of her bestselling novels.

Originally written on NESN.com | Last updated 7/5/12
WILMINGTON, Mass. -- Even after being selected with the ninth overall pick in the 2011 draft, Bruins prospect Dougie Hamilton knew he still had plenty to learn before being ready for the NHL. He just wasn't prepared for how hard one of those lessons would be. A massive blueliner who is still growing, adding an inch and 11 pounds in the past year to stand at 6-foot-5, 204 pounds, Hamilton has worked hard to develop the physical side of his game. But being bigger than most of the competition he faced in the Ontario Hockey League wasn't always an advantage....
