Pregnancy tip
When you see your midwife ask her to explain what she can feel with her hands when she examines your belly - it can be really interesting to find out where your baby is lying.
Baby movement in the womb
Information on baby movement in the womb during pregnancy covering what you baby's movements can tell you and when to seek advice.
This article covers several matters including what it means if your baby is kicking low, with answers to questions like 'when does a baby start kicking?' and more.
Most pregnant women start to feel their baby's movements sometime during the second trimester (13-27 weeks) of their pregnancy. If your placenta is at the front of your womb it may take a little longer, as the placenta cushions you from the baby kicking. Try not to feel anxious about these early movements as all babies are different and mums-to-be will feel their babies at different points towards the end of their second trimester.
What does baby movement feel like?
The movements might feel like taps or pops at first and then become more distinct as the baby grows and gets stronger. You might feel the baby kicking, punching, stretching, swishing and rolling.
Later in pregnancy, your baby will take up all the space in your womb. He should still move as often as before and the movements should still be strong, but the foetal movement will feel different because of increasingly restricted space.
Patterns in baby movement
Many babies develop a pattern to their movements, maybe being more active after a meal, in the early morning or late at night. They are all individuals and you will get to know your baby's pattern.
Some babies experience hiccups in the womb. If your baby is hiccupping, your bump jumps every few seconds just like you would if you were hiccupping.
If you ever notice a change in the pattern of your baby's movements take a rest, lie down if you can, have a drink, eat something sweet and see what happens. If your baby wakes up and starts moving as usual that's fine. If not you should speak to someone urgently.
When should you be concerned about your baby's movements?
If you are concerned about your baby's movements, The Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG) advises lying down on your left for two hours - if there have not been 10 distinct, strong and obvious movements in that time, call your midwife or antenatal unit.
You might be able to contact your midwife directly but if not you can call the hospital where you are registered any time, day or night, to get advice and support. If you are planning a home birth you can contact the hospital where you had a scan or where your blood tests were processed. If you are worried about your baby and you are away from home, contact the nearest maternity hospital.
What does my baby's movement tell me?
You might get some useful clues about your baby's position from where the kicks are felt. Head-down babies will kick more strongly on one side and towards the top of the bump. Later on, some babies with their head at the bottom like to stretch their legs every so often and this can feel like something is sticking out on both sides of your bump - one side will be the bottom, the other side will be the feet.
Breech babies with their feet below their bottom will kick at the bottom of the bump. When you see your midwife ask her to explain what she can feel with her hands when she examines your belly - it can be really interesting to find out where your baby is lying.
Trust your instincts
Remember that babies should move strongly even at the end of your pregnancy - the baby movements might feel different but they should still be strong. Trust your instincts and seek help if you need it. Checking your baby is OK might involve a visit to hospital or your GP's surgery and listening with an electronic monitor for a few minutes. The resulting peace of mind will probably be worth the trip.

I just received a very nice print of an architectural image this afternoon from Mark O'Brian. It jogged my memory about the swap and so I spent a couple pleasant hours in the darkroom making my print which I hope to send off tomorrow.
How many of us ended up in the swap? Maybe we all could post our images in this thread (or another) so the rest of the participants can see what went around. Just a thought...

PepsiCo says it's not hungry for a big snack deal
The Purchase, N.Y., company, which owns Frito-Lay, Quaker Oats and Gatorade, issued a short statement Friday after the Telegraph of London said activist investor Nelson Peltz could push it to merge with Mondelez International Inc., which makes Cadbury and other Nabisco brands, in addition to the famous cream-filled cookies.
The report cited unnamed sources saying Peltz, who is known for making big investments then forcing change, has been building stakes in the two companies in recent weeks.
PepsiCo has long been the subject of speculation that it would spin off its underperforming beverage business. CEO Indra Nooyi tried to squash such talks last year with a "Power of One" marketing campaign that featured the company's sodas alongside its chips. But PepsiCo has nevertheless been reviewing options to restructure its North American beverage business and recently said it would provide more thoughts on the matter early next year.
In particular, the company said it wanted to see how a new sweetener system it's developing might help improve its soda business.
"We certainly wouldn't want to make a change in the business structure while there's still opportunities to unlock value that might be better unlocked while PepsiCo still owns the business," Chief Financial Officer Hugh Johnston said in a call with reporters in February.
Consumer Edge Research CEO Bill Pecoriello noted that the global snack business is much more attractive to PepsiCo than the soda business, which has been declining for years in developed markets such as the U.S.
But if PepsiCo were to spin off its beverage business, he said it would likely want to make a major acquisition to remain as big as it is today.
In fact, Consumer Edge issued a report just this week detailing how a merged PepsiCo and Mondelez would work in markets around the world. The report found that the combined company would benefit because there are many regions where one of the companies has a big presence and the other doesn't.
In places such as the U.S. where both do big business, Pecoriello said consolidating distribution networks could result in $3.4 billion in cost savings. He also noted that PepsiCo spinning off its beverage business wouldn't necessarily negate the "Power of One" strategy because independent companies could maintain marketing partnerships. For instance, PepsiCo still provides beverages for the fast-food chains owned by Yum Brands Inc., which it spun off in 1997.
Still, the deal would present plenty of challenges.
JP Morgan analyst Ken Goldman noted that Mondelez has an array of products that could be too complicated "to appeal to a larger suitor." He also noted that the size of the company could raise antitrust issues.
At the same time, Goldman said he wouldn't take any potential interest by Peltz lightly.
In a short statement, PepsiCo said that it doesn't comment on market rumor or speculation.
"As we've said before, we are making strong progress in our strategy to deliver long-term growth and create shareholder value," it said.
Mondelez International Inc., which split from Kraft Foods Group Inc. last year, also said it was satisfied with its portfolio as it stands.
A representative for Peltz's Trian Fund Management declined to comment.

Mycotoxin protects against nematodes
Researchers at ETH Zurich have isolated a protein from a fungus of the spruce which combats nematodes. The scientists hope that toxins of this kind will become the basis for the vaccination of livestock or domestic animals against zooparasitic nematodes.
The fungal toxin binds to specific sugar structures which occur on the surface of intestinal cells of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Where the toxin accumulates the intestine is glowing reddish. (Photo: Markus Künzler / ETH Zürich)
Most terrestrial plants enter into biocoenosis with funghi. Both sides benefit: the fungus, which surrounds the small roots of the host plant with a thick felt, supplies the plant with trace elements and water. The plant, in turn, supplies the fungus with sugars and other metabolites which it is unable to produce itself.
Toxic protein kills intestinal cells
ETH researchers from the research group of microbiology professor Markus Aebi have discovered a protein in the cells of one such ectomycorrhizal fungus which offers an additional advantage to the fungus-plant duo. It protects the fungus and possibly its roots, too, against nematodes as it is toxic to the parasites. "This toxin is probably part of this fungus' defence system against predators", says Markus Künzler, senior assistant in Aebi's group. If the nematodes feed on the fungal cells, they ingest the toxic protein (see video on the homepage ). The nematode's intestinal cells are destroyed by a mechanism which has still to be elucidated.
The mushroom mainly forms the protein in its pileus, i.e. the part of the fruiting body visible above ground and in the dense fungal net around the tips of the roots. The fact that the toxin is close to the root tips could be an indication that the toxin not only protects the fungus but also the plant roots against predators. Many nematodes that live in the soil feed not only on fungal tissue but also on plant cells.
Modified sugar as the docking station
In their study, which has just been published in the journal PNAS, the researchers demonstrate that the defence protein docks on to a specific target in the nematode : a modified sugar found on the surfaces of the worm's intestinal cells but also on those of molluscs like snails. However, there doesn't seem to be any such surface structure on the cells of vertebrates.
Furthermore, Künzler and his colleagues show that this point of attack is also found in specific bacteria which means that the toxic protein can also dock on there. As the protein has several binding points for the target structure, the protein and several bacteria form clumps, they "agglutinate".
"This reaction is interesting as close relatives of this protein, known as homologs have also been found in animals – ranging from invertebrates like the horseshoe crab to humans - where they play a role in the defence against bacteria", continues Künzler.
The fact that fungal and animal toxic proteins bind to the same target structures means that this defence mechanism must be very old in terms of evolution. This type of defence is part of the "innate" defence system of highly diverse organism groups like mushrooms, crabs or even humans.
Vaccinate livestock against parasites
This finding also paves the way for practical applications: the ETH spin-off Malcisbo, which came from the microbiologist's laboratory, endeavours, on the basis of these surface sugar structures to develop novel vaccines against parasites and pathogenic germs for livestock and humans. "The funghi reveal to us the Achilles heel of nematodes and bacteria. We can now use these findings to combat them", hopes Künzler.

US trying to cover up weaknesses in PG drill: Iran lawmaker
This drill is being held at a time when our soldiers and forces are in full control of the Persian Gulf region and naturally this maneuver cannot create any obstacle in the way of the goals of the [Islamic] establishment." Iranian lawmaker, Mohammed-Reza Mohseni-SaniA senior Iranian lawmaker says the United States is trying to cover up its passivity and weaknesses by taking part in the upcoming drills near the Persian Gulf. Referring to the drills planned by the US and 20 other countries near the Persian Gulf, Mohammed-Reza Mohseni-Sani said that the Americans are after covering up their passivity and weaknesses by launching a drill in the Middle East and the region will have to pay its cost.
The Head of the Majlis (parliament) Committee on National Security and Foreign Policy further noted that the drill is political and by launching it the Americans are trying to ensure their allies that they are in full control of the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz."This drill is being held at a time when our soldiers and forces are in full control of the Persian Gulf region and naturally this maneuver cannot create any obstacle in the way of the goals of the [Islamic] establishment," Mohseni-Sani told ISNA on Sunday. "The Islamic Republic has the necessary control over not only the Persian Gulf but also the depth of free waters, and is ready to counter any threat," he added. The US has announced that it would hold demining drills near the Persian Gulf in cooperation with 20 other countries on September 16-27. The Islamic Republic has repeatedly said that its military prowess does not pose any threats to other countries and that its defense doctrine is based on deterrence. Navy Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Rear-Admiral Ali Fadavi has, however, warned that should the US attempt the folly of staging an act of aggression in the Persian Gulf, it will cost the lives of all the American forces engaged.

The Lines Of Nasca
Favorite thing: Once in Peru I think you have to visit the lines of Nasca although from the ground there isn´t that much to see. But it´s impressing to see these lines, knowing that there´s still no 100% explanation how and why they are constructed. Maria Reiche, a german mathematic spent all her life in searching and investigating about the lines, one of the ideas some people have is an airport or something like that for extraterrestics......
Fondest memory: The special point is: You CANNOT see the geometrical form of all these lines from the ground, they are too big. So....why did human beings construct something they can´t really see at all?
Favorite thing: A central commercial area near to Plaza de Armas, the Nazca city become lively after 9:00 am in the morning.

We have received a few questions on our project flight plan (status) board that can be found on the home page of my blog, the monthly Ranger flashes and on the bulletin boards in Redmond (bld18) and the Vancouver Development Centre.
While we have space we keep landed flights / projects on the board for awareness. As we run out of space on the board the rows move upwards and "pop off" landed flights.
At the moment it is still a manual process, based on PowerPoint and humanoid intervention. Why not automate … see next question
Yes, but we recommend that you wait for Robert MacLean and Gordon Beeming to complete their research and guidance project, which will read a pre-configured TFS backlog and automatically build the flight board. As it is a made in South-Africa project I would not be surprised if its codename is related to District 9 or Elysium
We use the following status indicators for features on our backlog in the VisualStudio.ALM\Strategy Team\UserVoice Idea or VisualStudio.ALM\Strategy Team\Strategic Idea area path:
See status indicator above. If we experience delays (today > delivery date) during the content development phase (in-flight) we will add a "Delayed" indicator to the status. Likewise if we experience delays during "landing" we will add a "Delayed" indicator.

KUALA LUMPUR -- Fortis Healthcare (India) Ltd.'s chairman says there are more investors interested in buying stakes in medical diagnostics chain Super Religare Laboratories Ltd., and they are willing to a pay above the last transacted price.
"There have been two rounds of private equity [transactions].
"Today, there is a desire of people to come in at a price even higher than that. Whether there will be a third round, we will take that call. At the end of the day, the business is growing," Chairman Malvinder Mohan Singh said.
He, however, declined to say which companies have shown interest or what premium they are willing to pay.
In May, private equity company Sabre Partners said it will invest 500 million rupees ($10.7 million) in Super Religare and Avigo Capital Partners bought a 9.27% stake for 1 billion rupees.
Fortis Healthcare Chief Executive Aditya Vij last month said the company will wait for local stock markets to stabilize before going ahead with the planned initial public offering for Super Religare Laboratories.
Stock markets in India have been choppy in recent months due to growth concerns, both local and global, as well as the Indian central bank's monetary tightening. The benchmark Sensex has fallen 2.3% over the past week and 20% so far this year. Demand for primary issuances has been weak in 2011.
Super Religare Labs had withdrawn the IPO draft document once before when the company said in May it needed to be revised to reflect a new ownership pattern.
When Super Religare filed the draft document with the Securities and Exchange Board of India on Feb. 15, it was owned by the Singh family, which also runs Fortis Healthcare. Subsequently, Fortis acquired a majority stake in Super Religare in May, which effectively changed the company's ownership.
The company wasn't immediately available to comment on whether Super Religare has filed the revised draft document as yet.

Centro bus riders looking to get to the North Utica Shopping Center no longer will be dropped off in front of the stores.
Centro bus riders looking to get to the North Utica Shopping Center no longer will be dropped off in front of the stores.
Centro moved its pick-up and drop-off location earlier this month after the plaza's owner, AMA Properties LLC., asked the bus company to make the move.
Patrick Agen, a member of the ownership group, said they requested the move because the buses increased traffic congestion within the center.
"It's a tight, compressed area for car traffic, and with the buses it was causing some congestion," he said.
The bus line still runs to the center, but passengers are picked up and dropped off in front of a bus shelter on Auert Avenue, next to First Niagara Bank.
That had been the bus stop for years, Agen said.
"It's a landlord issue," said Nick Marji, co-manager at Price Chopper. "We really haven't had any complaints about it."
For seniors in the area who have mobility issues or use motorized wheelchairs, it is a hassle, said Kenneth Rowland, 89.
"I can still move around pretty good," he said. "But for some of us, going across the parking lot can be an issue."
There was no notification of the change, either, he said.
"I was riding back from Walmart one day, and it didn't turn in to drop me off like it normally would," he said. "I asked the driver, and he told me they're not allowed to go in there anymore."
Centro had not received any complaints about its services prior to the move, Centro General Manger Ron Bucciero said.
"This is the first time we've ever had to move a stop," he said. "We've had plenty of places ask us to come in, but never had a place ask us to leave."

The Best Music Books to Give Someone Who Would Never Buy A Music Book
A short list of "gateway" music books for the friend who would never buy one on their own.
Sometimes we give people the gifts they want; sometimes we give them the gifts we think they need. Maybe you have a friend who doesn't know much about music, isn't inspired to push their boundaries, and probably wouldn't buy a music book on their own. But you want to get them a music book anyway. You're in luck. Beyond the stately biographies, trashy tell-alls, and "remember when" critical panoramas, 2013 was a banner year for "gateway" music books. Here's a short list of tomes to tickle your Gnostic friends' fancies.
With all the blogs and websites dedicated to cataloguing terrible album covers released by outsiders who never got close to the flame of fame, there's no reason for this book to exist, much less in a sumptuous coffee-table incarnation that costs $65. Which automatically makes Enjoy The Experience: Homemade Records 1958-1992 the greatest music book of 2013. Why would someone want to flip through this? Schadenfreude. Enjoy 512 pages of failed human endeavor featurng nearly 1,200 "vanity press" albums released by creative souls way, WAY outside the music business bubble: supper-club organists, high-school marching bands, husband and wife gospel duos, regional heartthrobs, Partridge Family knockoffs (cult faves The Shaggs receive a lavish bio treatment here), would-be psychedelic gurus, angry reactionaries, and living-room crooners. The volume comes with a card that allows readers to download songs from these records. More interesting is the 7-inch single with instructions on how to put out your own album, which your friend could utilize to record their own soon-to-be-ignored-classic.
Alan Rusbridger's Play It Again: An Amateur Against The Impossible offers a different take on musical amateurism along the lines of "Can a middle-aged editor for The Guardian learn a famously difficult Chopin piano concerto from scratch by practicing for twenty minutes every day for one year?" Before you respond, "Who cares?" remember that Rusbridger tried this stunt during a year when he worked a 24-hour news cycle while covering the Wikileaks scandal, the Japanese tsunami, Rupert Murdoch's phone-hacking scandal, the Arab Spring, riots in Great Britain, and the killing of Osama Bin Laden. (Rusbridger just testified in the case of NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden.)
For those who are drawn to musical subcultures, Pitchfork scribe Nathan Rabin mashes up two doozies, jam band Phish and shock-rappers Insane Clown Posse, in You Don't Know Me But You Don't Like Me, his anthropological study/memoir on obsessive fandom. Rabin picked these bands for because both are so reviled: Phish for its excessive, Grateful Deadly noodlings and ICP for its nihilist poseur-dom and awful music. By infiltrating their legions of rabid and loyal fans and trying to understand them on their own terms, Rabin paves the way for a more universal appreciation of the need for community.
In Stacy Horn's Imperfect Harmony: Finding Happiness Singing With Others, a woman sings for 30 years in a church choir without actually being religious. Her reason sets the stage for a wider meditation on people singing in groups for camaraderie as well as for healing. (The book begins in 1919 with the forming of a town choir in response to a horrific mining disaster in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania.) Horn also plumbs the four-century history of choral pieces and their composers like Mozart, Brahms and Handel. In their own way, both You Don't Know Me and Imperfect Harmony might soften the hater's heart.
Music is the backdrop and not the central focus of these two often harrowing memoirs. In Low Down: Junk, Jazz And Other Fairy Tales From Childhood, originally published in 2003 but reissued this year by Tin House Books, Amy Jo Albany details in haiku-spare prose her chaotic life growing up as the daughter of bebop pianist Joe Albany, who played with (and was admired by) Charlie Parker but for the most of his life carried a scorching heroin habit. Any romanticized notions of the hepcat life are blown away by Albany's graphic depictions of junkie decrepitude and jazzbo irresponsibility as when she recounts a possibly stoned Dizzy Gillespie dropping her on her head when she was a baby. In The Train In The Night: A Story Of Music And Loss, music journalist Nick Coleman chronicles his middle-aged hearing loss thanks to the effects of the vaunted "club disease" known as tinnitus, which has also claimed the eardrums of Pete Townshend, Moby, and Lars Urlich. Thanks to his condition, in which listening to music sometimes literally causes him to vomit, Coleman's massive record collection is transformed from a world of treats and wonders to a useless monolith of ear-torture. "I began to treasure the thought as well as the actuality of silence," Coleman writes.
In these sciencey books, music is a vital but tangential presence that arose out of the noises of nature and was in part an attempt by primitive societies to imitate the sounds of the earth. (Cave-groupies came later.) David Rothenburg's breezy Bug Music: How Insects Gave Us Rhythm And Noise posits the insects as the earth's first performing musicians; the author, a saxophonist, evens takes his instrument out to a field to jam with an orchestra of cicadas. Douglas Kahn's Earth Sound Earth Signal: Energies And Earth Magnitude In The Arts and David Hendy's Noise: A Human History Of Sound And Listening might be catalogued under a more recent development in the study of sound. "Archaeocoustics" (a.k.a. "sensory history") considers everything from the roar of the crowds in ancient Rome, and the Aeolian sounds made by wind blowing through telegraph wires (which inspired Ralph Waldo Emerson) to the continuous white noise of the 24-hour media cycle. "To trace the story of sound," notes Hendy, "is to tell the story of how we learned to overcome our fears about the natural world."

IP cameras
Netgear's push into the consumer IP camera / smart home space began with the Arlo Wire-Free cameras launched last year. The first generation Arlo cameras aimed at addressing the major pain points associated with consumer IP cameras - location restriction close to a power source, measures needed for protection from the elements in outdoor locations, and the need to run an Ethernet cable for connecting to the network. By being weatherproof, battery-powered, and transmitting video over Wi-Fi to a base station only when motion was detected, it delivered enormous flexibility to consumers. Netgear had an interesting slide to share with respect to the market share status of the Arlo. Within 6 months of introduction, the Arlo managed to climb up to the top of the charts...

Hell Synth: DIY Digital Noise Terror
A powerful little drone synth you can get prebuilt or make yourself. Want a different synth? Just swap the chip for a different program
The "Hell Synth" is a palm sized experimental synth you can buy prebuilt or as a kit. Little noise synths are often limited in the scope of their sound, either they grind aggressively like dive-bombing aeroplanes, or drone in massive arrays of humming square-waves.
THIS HELL SYNTH IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT! The range of sounds that come out of this little box will keep you twiddling for hours. There are oceans of glass, lightening fast arpeggios, swarming notes that dance in and out of phase.
This is the fifth version of this synth design and the tenth version of the software. Ive been working to make sure it is fun to use while being full of awesome sounds.
So far there are two programs I have written for it including:
This is a hard-core noise synth with six digital wavetable oscillators, tons of glitch, modulation and waveforms. It also has midi out.

Introducing the Beat707 XXL LE – DIY Drum sequencer
This is the Beat707 XXL LE – Limited Edition – no LCD and no SD Card, less components, minimal interface.
For more details, visit our Facebook Page
Beat707 XXL LE has only MIDI output, no LCD and no SD Card. Uses the ATmega328 EEPROM to store data. This unit can handle 8 drum tracks, 2 accent tracks and 6 patterns. Each pattern is actually a combi of 4 x 16 steps plus extra double steps. So in total we have 128 steps per pattern. We have setup a very easy way to edit all those steps. We have steps A, B, C, D for each set of 16 steps. Also, you can set a set to "double-step" and it will blink instead of light-up. All options are set into the program itself which can be altered and uploaded using the Arduino IDE.
– Uses only Two ATmega328 Chips and basic components.
– Work with a 500mA 5V power supply.
– Can use 4 pin mic left and right connectors, instead of 6 pin mic connectors.
– Settings such as track drum notes and midi channels are set in code, while BPM and Steps# can be changed in the interface itself and is saved along the other data into the internal EEPROM.
– Multiple units can be side-chained.

Adafruit Trellis
This PCB is specially made to match the Adafruit 4×4 elastomer keypad. Each Trellis PCB has 4×4 pads and 4×4 matching spots for 3mm LEDs. The circuitry on-board handles the background key-presses and LED lighting for the 4×4 tile. However, it does not have any microcontroller or other 'brains' – an Arduino (or similar microcontroller) is required to control the Trellis to read the keypress data and let it know when to light up LEDs as desired.

Miracle salmon, public need your assistance
September 9, 2014
The first fish have been sighted at the Issaquah Salmon Hatchery and it's that time of year again — time to step up to help the amazing salmon that are returning home and the crowds of people that will follow them.
The hatchery, with thousands of visitors every year, is the most visited of the Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife's hatcheries.
There are many ways to do right by the salmon and visitors:
Discover the mystique of the Salmon Days volunteer shirt
September 2, 2014
Why do people adore and anticipate Salmon Days volunteer shirts so much?
They are typically brightly colored, made from cotton and boast a couple of logos. They're not softer, better fitting or faster drying than any other shirt in the typical wardrobe. Yet at any event in Issaquah, from Concerts on the Green to Fenders on Front Street, you'll see a lot of these shirts from years past being proudly worn. What makes them such coveted items?
Help Eastside Baby Corner clothe children for school
August 31, 2014
NEW — 6 a.m. Aug. 31, 2014
Join Eastside Baby Corner in its fifth year of making sure children in need have clothes and shoes that fit as they head back to school.
This year's Pants Party is from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sept. 6 at the EBC Hub, 1510 N.W. Maple St. There will be free entertainment, including activities by KidsQuest Children's Museum and a performance by Debbie Hansen, the Science Lady.
Kids can touch a fire truck and police car, go on pony rides and get their faces painted. There will also be games, giveaways and hub tours. There will also be food and a raffle for great prizes.
Editorial — School begins with need for volunteers
August 26, 2014
On Tuesday, parents across the Issaquah School District will walk their children to the school bus or to school for the start of a new school year.
Finally, a bit of free time for a second cup of coffee.
But wait, your school needs you. The volunteer jobs at school are endless. The playground needs monitors, the library can use assistance, the front office might need your organizational skills, teachers almost never have enough helpers and the nurse's office is often in need of a mother's touch to watch over a sick child.
Guest Column — Great schools, great communities and you
August 26, 2014
Issaquah schools are great — there's no doubt about it. Our district is consistently ranked as one of the top in the state and our students' test scores are among the best in the nation. Ask any real estate agent and he or she will regale you with tales of parents who relocated just so their kids can get an Issaquah education.
What is less apparent is how our schools continue to be world-class centers for learning. Much credit goes to our teaching staff and fiscally savvy administration. An equal measure belongs to the community — parents, residents and businesses who donate to the Issaquah Schools Foundation, join our PTSAs and volunteer in our schools.
Volunteer with the Friends of the Issaquah Salmon Hatchery
August 18, 2014
NEW – 6 a.m. Aug. 18, 2014
With spawning season coming up, it's a good time to volunteer with the Friends of the Issaquah Salmon Hatchery.
The hatchery is the most visited of the Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife's hatcheries, with thousands of visitors every year.
FISH relies on a committed team of docents to provide tours and educate visitors about the salmon in Issaquah Creek. Adult volunteers are needed from September to mid-November.
Distinction for Dedication — 35th annual Issaquah Community Awards celebrates extraordinary community service
May 27, 2014
Robin Callahan and Ava Frisinger were the big winners during the 35th annual Issaquah Community Awards.

Fourteen awards were given, celebrating multiple facets of how people improve Issaquah.
City is accepting names for Issaquah Hall of Fame
May 6, 2014
The city wants nominations for outstanding citizens for the 2014 Issaquah Hall of Fame.
Each spring, the mayor and the City Council president choose a person to honor for making a lasting contribution to the community. The selection process will evaluate nominees' provision of inspiration, service, leadership, civic-mindedness, activity drawing positive attention, fundraising efforts and length of service.
'Caring Community Award' nods are due May 14
May 6, 2014
Life Enrichment Options, AtWork! and the Tavon Center invite the community to nominate a volunteer who dedicates him or herself to supporting those with developmental disabilities for a "Caring Community Award," as part of the Issaquah Chamber of Commerce's Community Volunteer Awards.
Awards will be presented at the 35th annual Community Awards Banquet on May 22, where Issaquah's service clubs celebrate and honor those volunteers dedicated to making a difference.
Deadline for nominations is May 14. Submit a nomination at www.lifeenrichmentoptions.org.
Eastside Baby Corner holds May 5 open house
May 2, 2014
NEW — 6 a.m. May 2, 2014
Eastside Baby Corner will open its doors to visitors May 5 to show the community how its nearly-all-volunteer team fills more than 1,000 individual orders, helping more than 500 kids, each week.
The 5:30-7:30 p.m. open house is a day before GiveBIG, the Seattle Foundation's annual fundraising event for Puget Sound-area nonprofits.

Scouting Thursday's Pirates-Padres game
Pirates/MLB Videos
• Gerrit Cole has pitched like the ace of the Pirates' staff in September. In three starts this month, Cole has posted a 1.35 ERA and his best monthly strikeout rate (9.45 strikeouts per nine innings). Cole was masterful in both of his starts last week against the Rangers and Cubs. Despite already having thrown 23 1⁄3 more innings than last season, Cole has shown not signs of tiring. His fastball velocity remains in the mid to upper 90s, and his slider has improved.
• The Pirates have struggled against pitchers with curveballs this season — see: Andrew Cashner — and they face another such pitcher Thursday in Ian Kennedy. Kennedy threw seven shutout innings and struck out eight Pirates last month in a start at San Diego.
• Pirates lefty reliever Justin Wilson might be suffering from some arm fatigue as he had pitched only four times in September entering Wednesday, and manager Clint Hurdle has hinted that he's tried to avoid over-using Wilson.

'93' rated from the legendary Nestor Plasencia.Trading fancy packaging for a superior blend, Nestor Plasencia offers up Nestor Reserve Maduro. This ultra-well-aged tobacco, hailing from the lush grounds of Honduras, makes its presence known from first light. Draped over long-fillers from Honduras and Nicaragua can be found an extremely refined Habano Maduro wrapper leaf. Securing its spot-on construction is a sturdy Cameroon binder. Heady and fragrant notes of white pepper, cinnamon, and chocolate put this gem's complexity over the top. After a long and lingering finish, there are no questions as to how Nestor Reserve Maduro achieved this well-deserved '93' rating.

Mississauga power plant cancellation just like the U.S. space program, Liberal MPP says
Liberal MPP compares scrapping power plants with putting a man on the moon because neither cost was known before the mission began.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
View 3 photoszoom
How is axing a power plant like putting a man on the moon?
The answer came from Liberal MPP Bob Delaney as the government faced more scrutiny Thursday over scrapped power plants in Mississauga and Oakville.
The parliamentary assistant to Energy Minister Bob Chiarelli defended the $275 million decision to cancel Mississauga without knowing the cost to taxpayers.
"When the United States committed to go to the moon, they didn't know how much it was going to cost; all they knew was that one way or the other they were going to get there," Delaney told reporters.
He was responding to testimony at a legislative committee from retired deputy energy minister David Lindsay that the Liberals cancelled the plant with less than two weeks until the Oct. 6, 2011 election, having no idea how expensive it would be.
Lindsay's former boss Chris Bentley — who retired from politics in February — has been called to testify by the Liberals before the committee investigating the power plant scandal next Tuesday.
Delaney's remark was rocket fuel for opposition parties ready over what Premier Kathleen Wynne has admitted was a "politically motivated" decision to save Liberal seats.
"It was like the moon shot. Uncosted, sky-high," said New Democrat MPP Peter Tabuns, the party's energy critic. "They took a complete leap into the dark with the wallets of every Ontarian."
"How do you top that," added his Progressive Conservative counterpart, MPP Vic Fedeli. "Maybe that's where the costs are headed, to the moon.
Earlier this week, Auditor General Jim McCarter reported that cancelling the Mississauga plant cost Ontarians $275 million — 45 per cent more than the $190 million the government claimed.
His office is preparing a similar report into the costs of cancelling a larger plant in Oakville a year earlier, which the government has put at $40 million but opposition parties say could near $1 billion. The report is due by September.
Lindsay testified government officials knew paying out the full contract to the builder of that Oakville plant — where construction had not begun — would be "$500 million to $600 million."
Asked by Tabuns to assess the strategy of cancelling plants without knowing the tab, Lindsay replied: "It would not be common. Not unheard of, but it would not be common."
Chiarelli said "none of the (political parties) had a cost when they made the promise" to close both plants. He refused comment on Lindsay's $600 million figure for the Oakville plant.
"I'm waiting for the auditor general."
