Book Summary:
The Rainbow Fish, with is shimmering scales, is the most beautiful fish in the ocean. But he is proud and vain and none of the other fish want to be his friend--until he learns to give away some of his most prized possessions.
Group Discussion:
We went over the importance of friendship with others, and made a list on the a dry easier board of qualities (what a good person should be) that a good person that friends have or should have.Group Activity:We listened to music and did fish like movements to the music.
We watched the DVD "Rainbow Fish: Dazzle the Dinosaur" that we borrowed from our public library. The DVD includes the story of Rainbow Fish based on the book that we read.
For Art and Crafts, we made Rainbow Fish. This is our our craft idea.(I have not seen it anywhere online) For this project, we worked together making it.
Materials used:
Paper Plates
Sharpie marker
tissue paper
Elmer's glue
tacky glue
Silver glitter
metallic gift bag for Shimmery scales
a cup of water and paint brush.
1. I drew a picture of Rainbow Fish (from looking at the book cover) onto a paper plate.
2. My oldest helped cut out oval shapes out of different colors of tissue paper. ( red, blue, purple and orange) For the shimmery scales of Rainbow Fish, we used a silver metallic gift bag I got at the Dollar tree.
3. Start gluing the tissue with watered down glue. We simply poured some Elmer's glue in a plastic cup and add a little water until the mixture is like a liquid consistency.
Another Variation on making a Rainbow Fish can be found at A to Z Teacher Stuff under the craft Wax Relief Fish. We may make this one in the future but for now we are enjoying our
Rainbow Fish that we made.
Here's a link to print out your own Rainbow Fish pages.

, I don?t think the Bengals have cgnahed based on the 4-2 start or the Carson trade. Change takes time. So I can see why people are hesitant to buy back in. Has to be more done to bridge the gap between fans and team. JT,I agree with you and appreciate that even though you have inside information that you do not throw players, coaches, or MB under the bus. I respect your insights in to the game and enjoy reading your blog and listening to your show.My point was probably to vent a little concerning the fans that continue to point to the 90 s (Bob A did that here as well). While, the comments are true about the overall record, things really have cgnahed a lot since Marvin came in. They have won more games, the locker room attitude cgnahed temporarily but they were not mature enough (players, coaches, ownership) to handle even minimal success like a division championship. JT, you could probably speak to that much more than our perspective as fans. I suppose that it is my hope that the recent changes (drafts, locker room chemistry, marvin actually talking some football in the press conferences and not just coach speak, the new cba benefiting the bengals, 4-2 is nice though a weak schedule) are signs that may eventually point to the Bengals making another step in the maturation process. I don't expect playoffs this year, but when we as fans do crticize, we should do so in light of progress made and what needs to continue to make the organization a championship caliber franchise. In other words, criticize the present problems (show some love for Bengal fans MB!), not the past problems that are no longer issues (Akili Smith). Don't settle for less than a championship, but allow yourself to appreciate any changes in that direction.

From my Forbes.com blog The New Persuaders:
After spending years trying to dump its Atlas online ad-serving business, Microsoft reportedly is in talks with Facebook to sell the unit that helps advertisers and ad agencies place ads on websites and track their impact.
The news comes five months after Microsoft wrote down nearly the entire value of its $6.3 billion acquisition of aQuantive, of which Atlas was a part. Following its recent move to de-emphasize its own ad tech, Microsoft has been shopping the unit around, most recently to AppNexus. Business Insider reports that before Facebook talks began, the highest bid Atlas got was $30 million.
There's no guarantee the deal will happen. But why is Facebook interested? Some speculate that it's a way for Facebook to close the final technology gap on a plan for an ad network, similar to Google's AdSense, that would place Facebook ads on other websites. Could be. But I tend to agree with one AppNexus Senior VP that there's an even bigger goal that goes along with that: proving Facebook ads work.
That has been the No. 1 social network's overriding task for the past year, especially since its underwhelming IPO. It has released vollies of case studies showing how its ads actually do spur sales down the line. But for whatever reason, most likely the difficulty of applying success by one company or industry with its social ads to others, many advertisers and agencies remain skeptical.
Atlas would enable Facebook to track the impact of its ads, which it's already quantifying through a deal with Datalogix, which tracks in-store sales, not just on Facebook but on other websites as well. Privacy advocates are not happy about the Datalogix deal, and adding an Atlas-powered ad network won't make them any happier.
But Facebook may finally be on the verge of closing the elusive loop between its ads and ultimate sales that result from them in a way that to date no one but Google has done really well and on a huge scale.

Living Words:
Aboriginal Diplomats of the 18th Century
A major intercultural initiative in celebration of the Great Peace of Montreal
Montreal, May 4, 2001 - The McCord Museum proudly announces the May 4th opening of Living Words: Aboriginal Diplomats of the 18th Century. On this 300th anniversary of the Great Peace of Montreal, we invite you to discover the intricacies and eloquence of Native diplomacy, and participate in living traditions of intercultural peace.
1701 - The Great Peace
In 1701, French representatives gathered in Montreal with delegates from close to 40 Aboriginal nations to sign the Great Peace of Montreal. Over the course of several days, participants engaged in a series of diplomatic activities, meetings and official speeches, and took part in commercial exchanges and festivities. Although the French authorities had for many years sought a treaty to end the unrelenting warfare, their efforts would not have succeeded without the participation and skill of Native diplomats who were favourable to peace. On the 300th anniversary of the Treaty of the Great Peace of Montreal, the McCord Museum is paying homage to Aboriginal diplomats who distinguished themselves throughout the 18th century.
These notable figures were gifted orators who spoke for their communities during negotiations with Europeans. They often adopted an original clothing style that combined traditional Native garments with elements of European fashion. They were powerful individuals who made smoking the peace pipe (calumet), the use of wampum and the giving of gifts an integral part of diplomatic exchanges in New France. Aboriginal women also played an important role in political life, though they often did so behind the scenes.
The Exhibition
Drawing on the McCord's archival documents and exceptional collection of Aboriginal objects (calumets, garments, accessories, wampum, trade silver ornaments), Living Words: Aboriginal Diplomats of the 18th Century also includes objects borrowed from other institutions. Among these are four spectacular oil paintings created in 1710 by Dutch artist John Verelst, on loan from the National Archives of Canada. These portraits depict Aboriginal spokesmen - "The Four Indian Kings," as they have come to be known - who visited the court of Queen Anne in London.
2001 - Teaching Peace
In an educational initiative undertaken in collaboration with l'École montréalaise, a provincial education program, the McCord recently offered workshops on Native iconography and culture to 22 classes of elementary students from around the Island of Montreal. The sculptures created by the students in response to their initiation to Native culture were then assembled to form The Tree of Peace, a monolithic mixed-media installation featured prominently in the exhibition. A further project undertaken by l'École montréalaise and the Corporation des fêtes de la Grande Paix de Montréal will bring together 500 Native school children from Aboriginal communities throughout Quebec and 500 French-speaking students from Montreal schools. These students will enjoy a guided tour of the exhibition, a theatrical presentation, and three nights of camping near the Botanical Gardens.
The McCord will also offer a full program of public cultural and educational activities in conjunction with the exhibit. Public workshops will introduce visitors to 18th-century diplomatic customs, Native pictograms (a form of writing) and Native beadwork.
A First Nations Tradition
With this commemorative exhibition and this assembly of young cultural ambassadors, the McCord renews its commitment to the preservation and promotion of the history of our nation as told by all its inhabitants.
The McCord has long been recognized for its collaborative work with Native communities and organizations. The exhibition Across Borders: Beadwork in Iroquois Life, on view at the Canadian Museum of Civilization from June 8 to November 4, 2001, was produced in collaboration with Native curators and artists. Presenting more then 300 stunning and rarely seen objects, this innovative exhibition explores the importance of beadwork in the political, economic and cultural life of the Iroquois nation.
Past exhibitions featuring objects from the McCord's First Nations collection also include:A Village Called Hochelaga; Names and Lives in Nunavuk; Marks of the Mi'kmaq Nation; Manituminaki: The Power of Glass Beads; and Watahine: Photographs of Aboriginal Women by Nancy Ackerman.
The exhibition and its complementary educational and cultural initiatives are major features of a citywide intercultural celebration of peace, spearheaded by la Corporation des fêtes de la Grande Paix de Montréal to mark the 300th anniversary of the Great Peace of Montreal.
The CBC is the Official Media Presenter of Living Words: Aboriginal Diplomats of the 18th Century. We wish to thank the National Archives of Canada for lending the portraits of the "Four Indian Kings" from their National Portrait Collection, and for contributing financially towards their conservation.

The census documents online
What does the 1911 census collection contain?
The surviving 1911 census pages consist of the original household pages and the enumerators' summary books.
- The household schedules were the forms completed by each household. Every person who stayed in the house that night (household members and guests) in theory was included on the form
- Enumerators' summary books (ESBs) were the books completed by each enumerator from the information provided in the household schedules
- The ESBs contain summaries of several households on one page – usually on the same street.
What 1911 census documents can I see online?
When you view an original page you will initially be shown the household schedule. The associated enumerator's summary book images can be viewed, at no extra charge, by clicking the links above the image.
You can also choose to view a modern transcript of the original page. You might choose to view a transcript if you find the handwriting difficult to read, or if you need to view several documents to confirm the identity of a person you are searching for.
How complete are the 1911 census records?
The collection of household schedules is complete, although around five per cent sustained water damage many years ago. All records have been scanned and transcribed, though inevitably the water-damaged documents are of poorer quality.
A small portion of the enumerators' summary books are missing from the archives and therefore will never be available to view online.

What if we could redefine what makes a garden beautiful?
That was the question that led to the creation of Beautiful Wildlife Garden. We came together as a team, a group of wildlife gardeners from around the country to begin a conversation to redefine beauty in the garden and celebrate the nature and wildlife to be found when we choose to share our space with birds, butterflies, pollinators, bats, and other wildlife.
We are a team of gardeners who love nature and have devoted our gardens to creating welcoming habitat for wildlife. We see beauty in the hum of a hummingbirds wings, the intricacy of a spider's web, the acrobatic flight of dragonflies, and the delicate flight of the butterflies.
We use methods that respect the environment and cause no harm to ecosystems around us. We know that natural resources need to be used wisely. And we choose the most appropriate regionally native plants to entice more wildlife to find food and shelter in our gardens.
It is often said that wildlife gardens are too Wild looking, while others fear the insects and other critters who find a welcome oasis in our gardens. We want to discuss these issues, and to show that these are beautiful and welcome additions to our gardens. We want to have a conversation about the benefits of wildlife in the garden: to redefine beautiful.
Our goal is to build a voice in the gardening community that brings wildlife gardening into the mainstream, on equal footing with ornamental gardening or vegetable gardening. And we'd like to show that none are mutually exclusive.
And we'd be thrilled to have you join us in this conversation!
The Beautiful Wildlife Garden Network
Beautiful Wildlife Garden is part of a network of sites created by Carole Sevilla Brown dedicated to teaching you to make healthier choices in your gardens, support more wildlife, and protect and restore native plant communities.
Ecosystem Gardening
Ecosystem Gardening–In July 2009, having just graduated from grad school, I launched a website based on the principles of my thesis Ecosystem Gardening: teaching you to garden sustainably, conserve natural resources, and create welcoming habitat for wildlife in your garden so that you will attract more birds, butterflies, native pollinators, frogs & toads and other wildlife to your garden.
Beautiful Wildlife Garden
Beautiful Wildlife Garden–In July of 2010 I was being interviewed for a radio show about Ecosystem Gardening, and I said that we needed to re-define "beauty" in our gardens. For me beauty is found in the birds, butterflies, native pollinators, frong & toads, and other wildlife who have chosen to share my space with me. So I invited a team of wildlife gardeners from around the country to share the beauty and wonders of nature to be found in the wildlife garden. I'm the creator and Managing Editor at Beautiful Wildlife Garden.
Native Plants & Wildlife Gardens
Native Plants & Wildlife Gardens–In April of 2011 I was interviewing Doug Tallamy and we were lamenting the fact that after so much discussion, very few gardeners yet know how crucial native plants are to wildlife in our gardens. So I invited a team of 30+ well-known authors, scientists, biologists, botanists, educators, restoration experts, green roof designers, and other knowledgeable experts from around the country who I've brought together to discuss the value of adding more native plants to our landscapes to create wildlife habitat. I'm the creator and Managing Editor of Native Plants and Wildlife Gardens. Please join us and participate in the conversation.
Find Native Plants
Find Native Plants–In October 2013 I realized that I was receiving many emails asking "what are the best native plants for my garden?" and also "where can I buy these native plants?" Instead of trying to answer the overwhelming number of emails individually, I created a comprehensive resource page for every state in the US and every province in Canada with links to all the native plant nurseries, native plant societies, state-specific plant lists, and other resources. Now it's easy to find the native plants and the nurseries that carry them for your local region.
Wildlife Garden Academy
Wildlife Garden Academy–In April 2014 I launched the Wildlife Garden Academy to bring the most up to date and comprehensive education about creating wildlife gardens with native plants right to you in the comfort of your home, and at a time that works best for your schedule. New courses will be added all the time, many taught by my team members at Native Plants & Wildlife Gardens and Beautiful Wildlife Garden, as well as some surprise guests.
The Wildlife Garden Academy is home to the Wren Song Community, a free members forum and discussion area where you can ask questions, share your stories, learn from each other, and make new passionate wildlife garden friends from all over the country.

I was pleased when I was asked to provide a blog on ethics, as this topic has personally intrigued me throughout my career. "Ethics" per se, is the division of philosophy that deals with issues that pertain to morality, which has such a tremendous significance in everything we do as doctors: caring for patients, conducting research, and teaching trainees. Ethical or moral behavior of course is a very important topic for any profession, but is perhaps most discussed in the field of medicine.
Ethics, the philosophical science of morality, has been a central interest to thinkers, philosophers, and doctors since the ancient Greek times. Socrates, Aristotle, Aristippus, Epictetus, and later Jeremy Bentham, John Stuart Mill, and also Immanuel Kant all addressed ethics. As much as we can enjoy reading the works of these great thinkers, in our everyday life and in medicine, it is probably pragmatic ethics (e.g. John Dewey) or postmodern ethics (e.g. David Couzens Hoy) that would be most applicable. In his writings, Hoy particularly addressed the powerless, which of course patients belong to, in this sense.
Ethics and conflicts of interest (COI) have long been associated with medicine. The general view is perhaps one where the good doctor navigates COIs well and resolves conflicts without compromising integrity and morals. Yet, COIs and morality aren't entirely synonymous. Morality should deal with behavior and a code of ethics that has nothing to do with enforceable laws. In other words you could be a perfectly law-abiding citizen and still be immoral. Morality, according to its scientific definition, addresses behavior that is within legal limits.
In our practice, in our teaching activities, and in our research, we do so many things where moral behavior and ethics come into play. In fact there probably is very little that we do where ethics are not applicable! A colleague once said that everything we do every day is infiltrated by conflict of interest (COI) and that you cannot ever eliminate COIs. Of course we hear plenty about COIs such as undue industry influence in continuing medical education (CME) programs, and in research studies, as well as practitioners receiving "freebies" and other favors (creating the urge to reciprocate, perhaps in their prescribing behaviors). However, those are only a small fraction of COIs in medical profession. Most COIs we are not even aware of and most don't necessarily pose a moral dilemma.
When you take out milk from the refrigerator, there are competing interests (i.e. whether you should satisfy your urge to drink now or wait until later, when you may need it more; whether somebody else in your household might need it more; if this will trigger a need to go to the grocery store today, which you really don't want to do, as opposed to tomorrow when you were going anyway, etc.).
Likewise, in academic medicine, it is critical that while working with students and residents (and making sure they get the education they need), at the same time also focusing on research achievements (which lead to promotion), we do not compromise the quality of medical care provided to our patients.
Some instances of poor conduct in the recent past have triggered a backlash prompting new legislation. Once, thus there is state legislation or an apparatus that enforces moral order, the related ethics issue ceases to exist. For example, should animal experimentation become illegal in a society, it would no longer pose an ethical dilemma (it will become a legal issue).
On the other hand, as remarked by another colleague, Dr. Joe Jankovic, one cannot achieve 100% ethical behavior through enforcing rules and laws. No matter how many rules and laws there are, there always will be loopholes, and if willing, individuals who can go around them. So what can we do?
1. Transparency. Well, since we already established COIs cannot be eliminated, our only option is to find a way to live with them and manage them the best way we can. How do we do that? The very first critical ingredient is transparency. Appropriate access to vital information bz concerned parties is half the battle. Also, when I speak of transparency, I mean true actual transparency, access to pertinent data in a way that makes sense to an average patient.
Of course we cannot open up our research folders and patient medical charts to the public. HIPAA and other regulations as well as research contracts restrict what can be accessed. However, "de-identified" data should be made accessible to all concerned parties. Transparency would enable patients to determine how many patients their doctor sees, what their office practices are, what research and teaching obligations she or he may have, including their financial relationships.
Disclosure of financial relationships is mandatory now for all CME work. However, patients may also want to know whether their physician, who recommends a certain treatment, is actually on the payroll for the company that stands to financially benefit if more patients are receiving that treatment. Similarly, a simple, easy to understand list of all professional activities and relationships reflecting potential COIs (financial or otherwise) of each health care provider should be prepared and made available to patients upon request.
Such disclosure would likely preserve, or in some cases, restore the trust between patients and their health care providers, eliminating most concerns about COIs and the potential for immoral conduct that could affect patient care. Of course disclosure in itself may not guarantee that everyone will all of a sudden become ethical, but disclosure of these data would help advise patients to make choices about their health care providers.
2. Healthcare metrics. Another important way to keep people honest is by tracking their performance. If a physician is navigating multiple, complex COIs, yet is providing highest quality healthcare to his/her patients, then we may be less concerned about COIs because ultimately what really matters is their level of care and professionalism. Of course we would need to have accurate and relevant healthcare metrics in place that are also practical and feasible. There is an entire branch of science dedicated to this, but patient advocacy groups definitely could push for and help support such efforts.
3. Selection. No matter what measures we take or regulations we put in place, our best guarantee that future medical professionals will practice medicine in an ethical manner is to select candidates of the highest moral caliber. Also, as medical educators we have to place a greater emphasis on medical ethics in the training process.
Medicine and morality are intertwined in so many ways. The Hippocratic Oath illustrates this relationship. In modern healthcare with so many potential COIs, no matter what regulation and measures we undertake to ensure moral conduct, it probably still is the rigorous process of selection and training that most helps to ensure that our healthcare providers are truly and genuinely driven entirely by their internal sense of right and wrong, as opposed to all the rules and regulations. Ethics in research and health care will remain an intriguing and important topic for generations to come, and the principles will remain the same as when the Hippocratic Oath was written in Ionic Greek in the late 5th Century BCE: "I will prescribe regimens for the good of my patients according to my ability and my judgment and never do harm to anyone."
Dr. Zoltan Mari received his medical degree from the Albert Szent-Györgyi Medical University (now University of Szeged) in Hungary. After clinical training at the Brookdale University Hospital and Medical Center in Brooklyn, NY, and residency in Neurology at the State University of New York, Downstate Medical Center in Brooklyn, NY, he undertook subspecialty training as a fellow in Movement Disorders and in Clinical Neurophysiology at the NIH Clinical Center in Bethesda, MD. Dr. Mari is now an Assistant Professor of Neurology and Medical Director of the NPF Center of Excellence at Johns Hopkins Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorders Center.

Review: Motorola Photon Q for Sprint
Form Basics Extras Wrap-Up Comments
Top message: Not the greatest review dude... by carmodboy99
Replying to: Re: Not the greatest review dude... by Eric M. Zeman
Re: Not the greatest review dude...
I realized it came across a little harsh, and that's why I replied to my post. Thanks again, Eric for taking the time to review the phone. Like bofis said, you covered more than most, but I tend to look for the best from you guys at phonescoop, not just a little better than everyone else, thus my overall disappointment. I have do disagree with you about the 2 having few features in common. In fact, aside from the slider form factor, once the 4.0 update rolls out in Q4 the switch from WiMAX to LTE radio and reduced 8GB internal memory will essentially be the only differences. And again, don't take it as a stab at you or your review, but .5 Ghz faster processor doesn't make me feel better about all that's lost. I was hugely disappointed in the phone, only mildly unfulfilled by the review. Sorry that it didn't come across that way, and thanks one more time for reviewing the device!

As they say everything you do with a hack will be a compromise and I know, I will have to compromise.
I have 10K miles with the sidecar on and my original clutch (46K miles total) and no slipping yet, so still good to go, but I try to get it easy and I have a 37/11 FD. I do not have any feedback on the ceramic clutch. I have tried a GS rig with one, but the "on off" mode is a lttle bit surprising, and I'm sure you can get use it to it. The front end mod will be also on your "need to do" list, car rim tire on the back will follow soon :-)
Building a rig to your feelings and tastes could be a long project, but I have enjoyed all the different brainstorming and building steps. The better proof is I'm in the process to build (with the help of Claude) a new rig based on a R1150GSA and a EZS L.L. BTW the 1150 has the same "issues" as the 1100, and the fun is just begining all over again.

My Cross Penatia seems new, however, I can't figure out how to open it to install a cartridge (3 blue came with pen). I believe it opens down by the NIB but it is stuck. I could be wrong. It might open up at the top of the pen. No instructions and I couldn't locate any info on the net. If anyone has seen this pen before and could advise as to how and where, on the pen, to open it safely, I would greatly appreciate the info. Thank you in advance!

Never Mind... I got her open. Cleaned it up with warm water and just a drop of dish soap. MAN a lotta ink came out of it. I noticed that they apparently sent the wrong ink cartridge because the pen refused to close around it. I bumped into a blog by someone that has the same pen and they recommended an international cartridge or a Waterman international converter. That is my next mission. Might pick me up some dipping ink till my converter and cartridge comes in that way I can at least use the pen. I folded up a paper towel and stood my NIB up on it and let the paper towel drain the excess water out of the NIB. Thank you

Beaches and surfing in NSW
If a world championship competition for the best beaches was held, New South Wales would have to be disqualified on grounds of unfair advantage. The State's coastline stretches 1590km with a grand total of 892 beaches including Sydney's famed harbour and ocean beaches and seven of Australia's National Surfing Reserves.
With all that choice, you're bound to find just the right beach for a surfing weekend, a surfing road trip or a fun-packed beach holiday with the kids. World-famous surf breaks attract keen surfers from around the globe but there are also plenty of beaches where you can learn to surf with an accredited surf school.
Great food and wine across NSW
Award-winning top-rated restaurants are liberally sprinkled across New South Wales from Leura to Orange, Byron to Mildura with committed chefs attracted by the abundant, quality, seasonal produce. You can stock up on delicious gourmet goodies at the farm gate, artisan bakeries, family-owned wineries and the regular farmers' markets that are now a tourist feature of most major NSW towns.
Stay for a short break or long weekend to enjoy a regional cooking class or wine tasting course. Impress your friends with rare vintages, organic hand-made cheeses and fresh seafood from some of the cleanest waters in the world or a box of succulent organic figs, juicy peaches or crisp apples.
On your travels you'll also discover that some foodie pleasures never fade. Lunch on the veranda of an old country pub, fish and chips on the beach, an afternoon cream tea in a quaint café or tasting fine wine made by a third generation wine-maker.
NSW road trips and scenic drives
The best scenic drives take you on road trips of sheer pleasure and discovery. In New South Wales, there are tourist drives and scenic road trips that let you explore at your own pace, spend time with the whole family on a new adventure or meet new friends in a holiday park.

Bondi Beach is Australia's most famous beach with glorious golden sands, stunning surf and a vibrant seaside village. It's a great destination for people watching, surfing, swimming, shopping and dining in one of the 130+ cafes and restaurants.
Near the beach is the lively tourist strip on Campbell Parade but make sure you head up Hall St, Gould St and Glenayr Ave to enjoy the more vibrant heart of the village with designer boutiques, funky cafes, galleries, organic foods and endless eclectic shops. Explore the bondi beach business Directory to discover everything on offer.
Visitors should be a little wary. Strong rip currents can take swimmers by surprise and for those trying body surfing for the first time, the waves can be very powerful. Stingers can also be a hazard at certain times of year. Please always swim between the flags.
Only ten minutes in a car to Sydney's CBD, where you can visit The Opera House and Harbour Bridge. Or search on the RTA (Sydney's Roads and Traffic Authority) for ways to get around Sydney with the public transport buses and trains.

I would add another idea to your list of alternatives to burial (13 August, p 44) - recycling your bones into pottery. It came to me when, on a visit to an old mill in Staffordshire, I was shown how animal bones had been ground up and burned to provide the reinforcement matrix in clay to be made into bone china.
Your bones could be used to make a keepsake for your descendants, or a special tea set, perhaps. On the other hand, if your will was not to their liking, a chamber pot might give them repeated satisfaction.

An existing geometric and fluid-fluid scaled facility is applied to investigate the transport of borated safety injection (SI) fluid in the Westinghouse AP600 reactor vessel during a main steam-line rupture (MSLR) event. The AP600 reactor has coaxial injection into the vessel downcomer rather than the cold-leg cross-flow injection typical of operating power reactors. This gas-flow test facility has unique detail in the representation of the SI nozzle-to-core inlet path most important to SI transport. Analysis of the transport phenomena expected in the reactor and the scaled facility, given MSLR conditions, indicates that both buoyancy and turbulent diffusion can have comparable influences on SI transport. It is shown that different reactor-to-experiment velocity ratios are required to scale each phenomenon. Tests are performed to evaluate transient SI fluid concentration at the core inlet using the appropriate velocity ratios to scale buoyancy and diffusion. Two asymmetric loop-flow boundary conditions representative of the MSLR event as well as a symmetric flow condition are applied. While no one test result is fully similar to the expected reactor transport, this ensemble of tests provides data that are valuable for AP600 numerical model benchmarking.

FBI hunts for killer of Texas DA with billboard in Houston
By Robert Stanton | April 4, 2013 | Updated: April 4, 2013 5:20pm
Photo By Johnny Hanson/StaffPat Villafranca a special agent with the FBI Houston office gives a statement to the media about their new billboard advertisement that shows the $200,000 reward for information leading to arrests in those involved in killing the Mike McLelland the Kauffman County District Attorney and his wife on the on State Highway 6 near FM 521Thursday, April 4, 2013, in Arcola. The state-wide billboard campaign will also be displayed on digital billboards at Hwy 225 at Red Bluff, East Belt at Pasadena Blvd., and the Gulf Fwy at Calder. Those with information about the crime can call 877-847-7522. ( Johnny Hanson / Houston Chronicle )
With the launch of a billboard campaign and a $200,000 reward, the FBI has raised the ante in the search for the killer of Kaufman County District Attorney Mike McLelland, his wife, Cynthia, and Assistant District Attorney Mark Hasse.
Gov. Rick Perry announced Thursday that his office would provide a $100,000 reward, an offer that was matched by Kaufman County Crime Stoppers.
"Words cannot describe the shock and grief this community has suffered over the last several months," Perry said in a press release. "The criminals responsible for these murders will be caught, convicted and will pay the price for these horrific crimes."
The FBI has launched billboards at several Houston-area locations, as well as throughout Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Mississippi and New Mexico encouraging tipsters to come forward. The billboards feature photographs of the slain public officials, along with information about the new reward.
"I figure it would make me really nervous if I was guilty and I was to drive by a billboard offering a $200,000 reward for somebody to turn me in," said FBI Special Agent Pat Villafranca, standing near a digital billboard at Texas 6 and FM 521 near Arcola.
"That's a lot of money and a very tempting reward, and I think that people that have some information are going to find it irresistible," she said.
The McLellands were gunned down on Easter Day at their home about 20 miles east of Dallas. In January, a gunman opened fire on Hasse outside the Kaufman County Courthouse, fatally wounding him.
Officials are exploring ties between the killings and the Aryan Brotherhood of Texas prison gang. The Texas Department of Public Safety reportedly warned officials the gang was planning retaliation following a Houston-based grand jury indicting 34 members and associates for alleged crimes committed around the state.
The billboard space was donated by Clear Channel Communications and Lamar Billboards, Villafranca said.
Anyone with information about the killings is urged to call 877-847-7522.

House to Vote on SOAR Act
DCOSP, created in 2004, has given more than 3,300 District of Columbia students the opportunity to attend higher performance schools. Congressionally mandated evaluations of the program revealed significant gains in academic achievement. Participants also have a 91% graduation rate, compared to the DC Public Schools graduation rate of 55%.
The facts are there. The program is successful and children the opportunity to succeed. Those that are opposed to the program have fallen prey to the status quo of teachers unions and the educational establishment. For many years now, it has been apparent that centralization of education powers in Washington, DC does not equal better results. The Constitution mandates that the Federal government has an obligation to the District of Columbia, and that obligation is given a better base to grow with this program.
The Washington Post makes a strong argument against the Obama administration's out of touch message and disregard for facts in an opinion editorial piece this morning:
…it is parents, not government, choosing where to spend the vouchers. Given that this program takes no money away from public or public charter schools; that the administration does not object to parents directing Pell grants to Notre Dame or Georgetown; and that members of the administration would never accept having to send their own children to failing schools, we don't think the argument is very persuasive. Maybe that's why an administration that promised never to let ideology trump evidence is making an exception in this case.
True results are seen when options are given and innovation in education is allowed to flourish. The SOAR Act does just that. Heritage Action strongly supports HR 471 and will include the vote today on our legislative scorecard.

gluten free/ dairy free thanksgiving ideas
This year I learned my son has a wheat allergy. We are already a dairy free household for my daughter, so now it is time to go gluten free as well as dairy free. I am finding it hard to find gf/df recipes for Thanksgiving side dishes. Any ideas on how to make a southern cornbread dressing completely gluten free and dairy free?

So that is not a major issue. Does anyone have any time with these units on motorcycles, any tips on use or mounting would be great. Thanks for understanding my handicap.
I have a 350. You cannot download routes but you can download POI's or Points of Interest. By putting various POI's in combinations, you can simulate the actual route although still not as easy as planning your entire "route". Note that your Nuvi did not come with Mapsource as mine did but all you have to do is to send an email to Garmin Support and they will mail you whatever version your Nuvi currently uses free of charge. You have to first register your unit in My Garmin.
I bought a Ram Cradle for it and I have gone off road and superslab riding many times with it. If it starts to rain, simply slip a sandwich ziploc bag over it and pop it back into your Ram cradle. I also use a Amplirider amplifier so that I can listen to MP3 and GPS while riding with my er6i earphones. I just bought a 4 gig sd card for the Nuvi and so I can now load many more MP3's.
You will like the Nuvi although the 350 maybe more suitable for bike use due to it's smaller size.

How to Reach the Target Market for Your Consulting Business
- Categorized in: Entrepreneurship, General Business Resources
It can be pretty lonely when you first start your consulting business. You know you have the talents, skills and knowledge to accomplish the task, but you need to find the people who need that work to be done.
Here are 5 steps you can take in reaching your target market as a consultant:
1. Identify your area of expertise.
Before you can know anything about your potential clients, you need to understand your own strengths fully. Make a list of all the knowledge areas you feel confident in sharing and teaching to other people. It will be a partial list, because there are always some things that you do not realize you know well until you are put in a position of having to do them. However, a list will help you define your strongest areas for consulting.
2. Identify your target audience.
Next, figure out who needs your services. If you are a playground consultant, your brainstorming session might produce options like schools, parks, and day care facilities. Someone consulting on computers would have an even longer list, but if you have carefully narrowed down your area of expertise within the computer field, you will have an easier time finding your target market.
3. Reach out to members of your target audience by networking with business associates.
You may be able to connect with members of your target market through business or social contacts you have already made. The way to find out is to stay in touch with as many different friends and relatives as possible. Also, mention to them your new consulting business and the kinds of jobs you want to do. The more people you have seeking out your target businesses, the easier they will be to find.
4. Reach out to your target audience through professional or industry organizations.
Many business people do consulting within a certain profession or industry. Most of these groups have organizations to represent them, certify their members, and provide education, networking, and support for people in the profession or industry. If you are tied to one group in particular, join their organization. Take their classes and become certified if possible. Go on organizational forums and get acquainted with the people in the industry. Not only can you make contacts to help refer you to jobs, you may also find someone in the industry that needs your services within their own business.
5. Do an Internet marketing campaign.
An Internet campaign encompasses a vast variety of methods for getting the name and services of your consulting business into the public eye. You can make a professional website, do informative articles for directories that link back to your website, write press releases, have a social media marketing campaign, or write a blog. Internet marketing aimed at your consulting business's target market will bring new customers into your business fast if it is handled correctly.

Food is great. Delivery is slow. I have been put on hold...left to listen to the staff talking for 10 minutes. Great place if you eat in.
Posted by Anonymous on 09/04/2008
Freakin' Amorina, man. . . Delivery is never under an hour and the pasta is consistently mediocre and overpriced. And yet. . . I order. Just did ten minutes ago. Why? The pizza. Delish. The Diavolo and the one with the artichokes especially. My bf also loves the arugala salad. Do not be swayed, however, but the $12 ziti or the "specials." Stick with the pizza and find yourself a snack in the mean time. The only time we ate in the place was strollerland, which is cool if that's your thing.
Posted by Massimo on 06/27/2008
Been there twice in the span of a week, because of suggestions from different friends. The pizza was excellent, especially in my opinion the prosciutto e fichi (prosciutto with figs). Their wine is variable, your best bet is to go for something you recognize on the menu (I suggest an Orvieto for white, the Rosso di Sicilia for red). Take a stroll down Vanderbilt too, there are other places worth checking out.
Posted by The best on 11/29/2007
This is the best pizza. It is totaly worth it.
Posted by Anonymous on 10/15/2007
Had to write in because the previous reviews are so unjust. While the pizza is not typical NY style, it's much better than any place I've eaten thin crust upscale pizza in the city. The pastas are homemade (the noodles, not just the sauce), the servers are actually Italian (and therefore perhaps not as urgent as some would like), and the atmosphere holds true to the neighborhood's pre-gentrification roots. Try the weirder pizzas -- Prosciutto e Fichi or Norma, whatever special is on for the night. As for delivery service, walk two blocks, for Pete's sake. It's worth it.
Posted by anon on 09/16/2007
The service is poor. Often times the waitstaff forgets to bring your order to your table until you remind them. The cuisine is basic, like something you could do at home. The atmosphere is quaint and it could be a great place if only the service was much much better and the food was more interesting. The wine list is also very basic.
Posted by Anonymous on 08/26/2007
while the pizza is very good there the service is a bit lacking. i have had several disasterous experiences ordering from there, whether it was a wrong order or an order that never came..if u are gonna order, take the time to walk over there and pick it up.. and even then, make sure to check your order before u leave.. the screw it up more often then they get it right. if they want to charge this kind of price for small pizzas they should figure out a delivery system that works.

"I have spent the last year focusing on myself and it's been incredible. More has come out of the past year than in my entire career so far, and I truly believe it was because I was taking care of myself and not focusing on guys." – Demi Lovato told UK's Cosmo On Campus that she used to devote all her time the boys in her life (*cough* Joe Jonas) because she was so scared of being alone. But now, she's paying more attention to the person she loves the most: herself. Aww….
I'm actually really into Demi's new attitude. Everyone knows a true It Girl exudes major confidence, and you can't have that if you're always worrying about a dude. Sometimes boy breaks are a good thing. Do you agree with Demi's point of view or do you think a girl can still find herself while having a boyfriend?

Atletico Madrid's La Liga title challenge took a nosedive when they slumped to a shock 3-0 defeat at Osasuna on Sunday, leaving Real Madrid three points clear at the top.
Champions Barcelona and Real were held to draws at Osasuna's El Sadar stadium earlier in the season and Atletico fell behind in the sixth minute when Alvaro Cejudo arrived unmarked at the back post to volley a corner into the net.
An error by fullback Juanfran allowed Emiliano Armenteros space to score with a long-range drive in the 21st minute and Roberto Torres nodded a third goal three minutes before the break.
It was the first time Atletico conceded three goals in the first half since Argentine coach Diego Simeone took over at the end of 2011.
Simeone left several regulars out of his starting lineup before bringing on playmakers Koke and Arda Turan and attacking midfielder Raul Garcia in the second half.
Atletico forward Diego Costa, who has 21 goals in La Liga this season, toiled up front but a typically gritty defensive performance from Osasuna kept him at bay as they climbed to 12th on 29 points.
"When your opponent is superior all you can do is congratulate them and Osasuna played very well today," Simeone told a news conference.
"The second half was better from our side but we couldn't find the goal that would have put us back in the match."
Atletico's defeat in Pamplona came after Barcelona lost 3-1 at fifth-placed Real Sociedad on Saturday as coach Gerardo Martino's decision to rest key players backfired.
Real Madrid had earlier cruised to a 3-0 win at home to promoted Elche. They have the outright lead for the first time since the end of the 2011-12 season, on 63 points with 13 matches left.
Barca, chasing a fifth title in six years, and Atletico have 60 points with the Catalan giants ahead on goal difference.
Seeking revenge
Atletico and Barca won impressively away from home in midweek Champions League action. The latter beat Manchester City 2-0 and the former overcame AC Milan 1-0 but both teams were unable to carry their form into the weekend.
Real, who play their Champions League last-16 first leg at Schalke 04 on Wednesday, are unbeaten in 26 matches in all competitions and visit Atletico next Sunday when they will be seeking to avenge a 1-0 defeat at home to their city rivals in September.
"The third goal was a real blow," said Atletico full back Filipe Luis.
"All we can do is congratulate Osasuna on a great performance. We need to keep working and try to keep …continued »
