Photos of Actor Arthur Shields on Display at NUI Galway
Tuesday, 1 March 2011
The general public are invited on a trip down theatrical memory lane at NUI Galway, as images from the archive of the Abbey Theatre actor Arthur Shields (1896-1970) are exhibited. The selection of photographs from the Shields Family Archive will be on display in the foyer of the James Hardiman Library until 18 March with many more images featuring in a powerpoint display. John Cox, Librarian at James Hardiman Library, says this is a fascinating display: "As well as photographs, visitors will also be able to view correspondence and publicity material from the Abbey Theatre's tours of North America, which were managed by Arthur Shields in the 1930s. As an interesting footnote, in Easter 1916, Arthur Shields fought with the Citizen Army in the GPO when he was just 19 years old, and several items relating to the uprising are on display." The exhibition is just part of the Shields Family Archive collection which is housed at the James Hardiman Library, and includes posters, programmes and playscripts. In addition, there is a large audio-visual collection of tapes and video, including around fifty hours of interviews with Abbey players recorded in the 1970s. Also in the Archive are the papers of Barry Fitzgerald, Arthur's brother. Both brothers had successful acting careers in Hollywood, each appearing in more than fifty films, beginning with John Ford's production of The Plough and Stars in 1936. The exhibition takes place in the foyer of the James Hardiman Library at NUI Galway until 18 March (closed on 17 March). The Library is open until 10pm Monday to Friday, and until 5.30pm at weekends. Admission to the exhibition is free. The University has also made over 150 images from the Shields Family Archive available online at http://archives.library.nuigalway.ie/shields. -Ends-

NUI Galway Professor to Speak at United Nations Expert Group Meeting on Youth
Tuesday, 1 March 2011
NUI Galway's Professor Pat Dolan will participate in the United Nations Expert Group Meeting (EGM) on 'Dialogue and Mutual Understanding across Generations' in Doha, Qatar on Tuesday, 8 and Wednesday, 9 March. The purpose of the meeting is to provide the UN Member States and the UN Secretariat with expert opinion on dialogue and mutual understanding as it relates to generations. In doing so, it seeks to explore the family structure as a framework for enhancing intergenerational dialogue between younger and older persons and exploring its impact in a broader context including, community, education and the workplace. The event will endeavour to review the existing policies and good practices in the area of intergenerational dialogue. It will develop recommendations on how strategic investment in activities and initiatives aimed at promoting intergenerational dialogue can help further youth development and social integration policies. Professor Dolan, who is UNESCO Chair in Children, Youth and Civic Engagement and Director of the Centre for Child and Family Research at NUI Galway, was invited to participate in the meeting by the United Nations on the Family and the United Nations Programme on Youth, in the Division for Social Policy and Development of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA). Professor Dolan's address will focus on "lessons learnt from existing approaches to promote dialogue and understanding and enhance youth involvement". Professor Dolan adds, "Civic engagement ranging from community based charity work to social justice/cause led action, enables new friendships and coping capacity for youth in need in Ireland and globally. This UN Forum will explore how Ireland can help move this from a vision to a reality." The meeting is being convened in observance of the International Year of Youth 2010 to 2011 and as part of the preparations for the Twentieth Anniversary of the International Year of the Family, which will take place in 2014. The event is being held in cooperation with Doha International Institute for Family Studies and Development (DIIFSD). -Ends-

Centenary of International Women's Day to be Celebrated at NUI Galway
Tuesday, 1 March 2011
The 100th anniversary of International Women's Day on Tuesday, 8 March, will be marked by a series of events at NUI Galway. International Women's Day was first celebrated in 1911, when more than one million women and men attended rallies around the world campaigning for women's rights. Now a well established worldwide event, International Women's Day has become an annual fixture at NUI Galway. The Global Women's Studies Programme at NUI Galway will be co-hosting a series of events throughout the week of 7 to 11 March. According to Dr Niamh Reilly, of the Global Women's Studies Programme at NUI Galway: "Over the last hundred years many gains have been made that have transformed the position of women in Ireland and around the world. However, there remain persistent and serious gender gaps that must be addressed before we can say that gender equality has been truly achieved. On average male workers and professionals continue to enjoy higher earnings and to occupy more senior positions in both the private and public sectors than women do. In Ireland especially, women are severely under-represented in formal politics and decision making positions, women continue to carry an unfair burden of responsibility for unpaid caring work in the home, and women are many times more likely than men to be subjected to domestic violence, rape and sexual exploitation." Events at NUI Galway will begin on Monday, 7 March, at 12.30pm in Áras Moyola with a seminar by Inez McCormack, women's and human rights activist, first female President of the Irish Congress of Trade Union and Chair of the Participation and Practice of Rights project, on 'Women, Power and Powerlessness'. On Tuesday, 8 March, at 8pm in the O Flaherty Theatre, the Galway Film Society will screen 'Women without Men'. The film brings together, on screen, the personal and the political in the story of four women and the way their lives are affected by the turbulence of the anti-Mossadeq coup in Iran. Directed by Shirin Neshat, it was the winner of Best Director Silver Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival 2009, and will be preceded by an introduction from NUI Galway's Niamh Reilly. A celebration of the life and work of Diana Leonard (1941-2010), Emeritus Professor of Sociology of Education and Gender at the University of London, and founder of the Centre for Research on Education and Gender, takes place on Wednesday, 9 March, at 12.30pm in the Arts Millennium Building. Finally, on Friday, 11 March, a public seminar of the Gender Arc Research Alliance, which is part of the NUI Galway-UL Strategic Alliance, will examine Historical Perspectives on International Women's Day. Speakers will include Caitríona Clear, Senior Lecturer in History, NUI Galway and Bernadette Whelan, Senior Lecturer in History, University of Limerick. This event takes place at 1pm in Áras Moyola. Dr Nata Duvvury, also with Global Women's Studies Programme, notes that: "Persistent underlying patterns of discrimination against women in most societies make women and girls disproportionately vulnerable to an array of harms from extreme poverty and wartime sexual violence to human trafficking and exposure to HIV/AIDS. Thankfully, there are many men and women the world over who are ardent defenders of women's human rights and gender equality. The centenary of International Women's Day offers a welcome opportunity to celebrate their successful efforts to challenge inequalities to date and to remind ourselves that no country yet can boast a perfect record on achievement of genuine gender equality for all groups of women and for sexual minorities." The events at NUI Galway are hosted by the Global Women's Studies Programme in conjunction with the Galway Film Society, the Gender Arc Research Alliance (NUI Galway-UL), and NUI Galway's Irish Centre for Human Rights, and Centre for Excellence in Learning and Teaching. All are welcome to these free events, for further information contact Gillian Browne at email@example.com -Ends-

The Student Enterprise Awards, a competition to encourage enterprise and innovation among students, has been launched at NUI Galway. The NUI Galway Students' Union initiative invites students across campus to put forward proposals for a project or business, with a prize of €15,000 for the overall winner. The competition embraces both the innovative and creative abilities of students to formulate a concept, with finalists being offered a chance to turn their idea into reality.

Two runner-up prizes are also on offer with financial investment of €2,000. Peter Mannion, NUI Galway Students' Union President said: "We are acutely aware of the hardship being faced by students and their families in these difficult economic times. The Student Enterprise Awards provide an excellent opportunity for young people in particular to apply their skills and talents. By providing the initial financial boost and expert guidance, the Awards have the potential to launch several initiatives that could create much needed employment and investment." The Student Enterprise Awards aim to unlock the potential of NUI Galway students by providing financial support and expertise for students who wish to start a project in the areas of Business, Arts and Social Entrepreneurship. Damien Cosgrove, NUI Galway Students' Union Commercial Services CEO said: "Students' Union Commercial Services is delighted to be involved in this important competition.

Nuclear Power for Ireland to be Discussed at NUI Galway
Monday, 28 February 2011
Philip Walton, Emeritus Professor of Physics at NUI Galway, and nationally-renowned nuclear energy expert, will lead a free public talk at the University on Wednesday, 9 March. 'Nuclear Power for Ireland: Facts and Fiction' will discuss all aspects of nuclear power as it relates to Ireland. Historically the Irish Government's policy has been firmly opposed to nuclear energy on the grounds of the risks it poses, yet some argue that nuclear energy is one of the cleanest, safest and economic forms of energy available to mankind today. Professor Walton will be joined by Professor Ian McAulay and Mr Denis Duff to explain why they believe Ireland should adopt nuclear energy as an important part of our energy mix. All three are members of the Better Environment with Nuclear Energy (BENE) group. According to Professor Walton, nuclear power has been employed successfully over the past 50 years by many countries yet Ireland continues to reject it. He says, "We cannot afford to continue to reject this power source out-of-hand, while we continue to rely on fossil fuel imports for most of our electricity production. This is simply untenable." He continues: "Wind energy will not be able to supply even 40 per cent of our electricity without major changes to our electricity system, and even then it is not certain if this can be achieved. What we can consider are modern safe reactors which would fit with little or no need for modifications to the National Grid. It would be possible to have a number of these plants providing jobs and safe, clean environments in a number of areas of Ireland. We would then have reliable energy, independent of dwindling fossil fuel supplies with their world price fluctuations. For the sake of homes and businesses in the future, the least we can do is to understand the fact from fiction in this whole debate." The event takes place at 6.30 pm on Wednesday, 9 March, in the Colm O'hEocha Theatre, Arts Millennium Building. To book a place at the event, contact Adam Beatty, Physics Society, NUI Galway, on 087 9055911 or firstname.lastname@example.com -Ends-

New Book by NUI Galway Professor Examines How Evolution Works
Thursday, 24 February 2011
A new book by an NUI Galway Professor of Zoology examines how evolution works by changing the course of embryonic and post-embryonic development. In Evolution: A Developmental Approach Professor Wallace Arthur asks questions like what separates humans from chimpanzees? Is it the genetics of our populations, or our different structures and behavioural capabilities? The book tackles key themes such as developmental repatterning, adaptation and coadaptation, the origins of evolutionary novelties, and evolutionary changes in the complexity of organisms. Together these themes explain how evolution works by changing the course of embryonic and post-embryonic development, providing a title influenced by the new approach of evolutionary developmental biology, 'evo-devo'. A key difference between Evolution: A Developmental Approach and other evolution textbooks is the integration of basic population-based evolutionary concepts with comparative developmental genetics. Organised on conceptual lines, with the themed chapters and case study examples, the book enables students to see the common principles underlying the evolution of different developmental pathways. Professor Arthur says, "There are many evolution texts 'out there', but there are none that cover the ground in the same way as this one. This book adopts a very specific approach to the evolution of animals and plants – an approach in which the central theme is how evolution works by altering the course of egg-to-adult development. This is a book about how evo-devo can be integrated with other approaches to evolutionary biology, giving us a more complete view of evolution than has ever been available before." Evolution: A Developmental Approach was launched yesterday at NUI Galway by NUI Galway President Dr James J. Browne. -Ends-

NUI Galway Centre of Astronomy Holds Second in Series of Public Talk
Wednesday, 23 February 2011
Pulsars which are some of the most extreme and enigmatic objects in the known Universe, will be the subject of the second NUI Galway's Centre of Astronomy public talks. Dr John McDonald, Post-Doctoral Researcher with the Centre for Astronomy, will discuss pulsars (neutron stars) on Wednesday, 2 March, at 7.30pm in the Larmor lecture theatre, NUI Galway. First observed serendipitously in the late 1960s by an Irish postgraduate student working in Cambridge, these objects have been intensely studied for more than 40 years, and yet much about these objects remains shrouded in mystery. The progeny of type II supernovae (the death of massive stars), neutron stars possess the mass of our entire Sun contained in an area the size of Galway, with immense electromagnetic and gravitational fields, spinning up to 650 times a second. Dr McDonald will explain the origins of these stars, starting right from the birth of normal stars, through their violent death, to their stunning rebirth. He will also discuss work being done by the Centre for Astronomy to expand our understanding of these fascinating stars. Speaking about the upcoming talk, Dr Andy Shearer, Director of the Centre of Astronomy at NUI Galway, said: "The Centre for Astronomy has been a world leader in optical pulsar studies for the past twenty years. In this time we have identified two of five known optical pulsars. Dr McDonald's talk will put this work in context show casing ground breaking research at NUI Galway." The talk is open to the public and might be of particular interest to transition year students and students thinking of doing science at University. More details about the series of talks can be found at http://astro.nuigalway.ie/outreach. -ends-

NUI Galway Babel Public Lecture Series
Wednesday, 23 February 2011
The first Babel Public Lecture Series entitled 'Exploring the Book' will come to a close with a lecture by Dr Kate Quinn on Tuesday, 1 March, at 6.30pm at Galway City Library. The Babel Public Lecture Series consists of six lectures and is an initiative of the School of Languages, Literatures and Cultures, NUI Galway. The Babel Public Lecture Series began in November 2010 with the first lecture presented by Dr Nollaig Ó Muraíle, Scoil na Gaeilge at NUI Galway, entitled 'Three Great Connacht Manuscripts from circa AD 1400: the Books of Ballymote, Lecan and Uí Mhaine'. Professor Hans-Walter Schmidt-Hannisa, German, NUI Galway provided the second lecture with a discussion on strolling through the 'Library of Babel: A short history of imaginary books'. Dr Mark Stansbury's lecture, entitled 'What is a Book', explored the development of book making from earliest times to hypertext and featured exhibits of papyrus and wax tablets for the audience to examine. Professor Paolo Bartoloni provided the fourth lecture, 'Joyce's Italian Book of Choice: Svevo's Zeno's Conscience'. The fifth lecture, 'Protestants, Pedants and Presses or What do you need for a Successful Book Trade?', was presented by Dr Catherine Emerson and centred on 16th century Lyon. The final lecture in the Series is titled 'Criminal Passions: The Perennial Appeal of Death and Detection' and will be delivered by Dr Kate Quinn, Spanish, NUI Galway. The lecture is open to members of the pubic and entrance is free. According to Dr Lillis Ó Laoire, Head of the School of Languages, Literatures and Cultures, "Dr Kate Quinn's enticingly 'noir' title manages to mention two of the great themes, passion and death, and promises to bring the first series to an appropriately intriguing completion. Her talk will deal with crime fiction and inform us about why it is we are so drawn by books in this genre." There will be a reception before this final lecture from 6.00pm to 6.30pm. The series will be formally closed by Dr Edward Herring, Dean of the College of Arts, Social Sciences and Celtic Studies, NUI Galway. Further information is available from Suzanne Gilsenan at email@example.com or 091 494037. -Ends-

As every fifth-grader knows, our Founding Fathers rebelled against the British tea taxes primarily because the taxes were imposed upon the colonies without any representation in the British Parliament.

Facing felonies, woman misses court date
BARRE A Williamstown woman missed her arraignment Thursday on felony charges she stole her brother-in-laws identity and racked up around $1,000 of debt in his name.
Debra A. Hutchings, 57, is facing charges of false pretenses and identity theft both felonies in Washington County criminal court in Barre. She was supposed to be arraigned on the charges Thursday, but Hastings did not show up.
A judicial summons was issued for her to appear at a later date. If Hutchings is convicted, she faces a maximum sentence of 13 years and a $7,000 fine.
According to the Vermont State Police affidavit, Hutchings brother-in-law, James Papineau, went to the state police in December saying Hutchings had opened up four credit cards in his name.
Papineau gave state police documentation showing electronic checks were issued in his name in the accounts totaling $1,028.29, including overdraft fees.
Papineau told state police Hutchings used a fabricated company, Papineau Meat Cutting, and her own address to open one of the accounts. Papineau said he had done some butchering in the past so he could only assume that is where Hutchings must have gotten the name, according to state police.
When questioned by state police about the accounts, Hutchings admitted to using Papineaus name, Social Security number and a date of birth exactly one year off of Papineaus in order to create the accounts. Hutchings told the state police she had fallen on difficult financial times and created the accounts so she could pay her bills. She told state police she planned to pay the bills off but things escalated and she could not pay off the debt.
State police say they received an email from Capital One, one of the banks where she allegedly opened up a fraudulent account, saying Hutchings had contacted them and had taken responsibility for the debt.MORE IN This Just In

WASHINGTON — Which is better to drink if you want to lose weight: water or diet drinks?
Nutritionists have long steered dieters away from artificially sweetened beverages, citing long-term studies that indicate they could increase cravings for sweets and sabotage weight loss. Some also have raised questions about the safety of the chemicals used to replace sugar — from saccharine to aspartame.
But a study under way at the University of Colorado and Temple University seems to be coming to a different conclusion.
Researchers there are following 303 men and women ages 21-65 in a weight-loss program, who have been split into two groups. Water is the only beverage permitted for the first group; the other dieters also can drink artificially sweetened beverages.
After the first 12 weeks, the diet-soda drinkers were crowned the biggest losers. While the water-only group lost, on average, 9 pounds, those who guzzled diet sodas and teas lost roughly 13.
When the results were published in the journal Obesity, critics pointed to the fact the study was funded by the American Beverage Association. Also, they charged that 12 weeks was far too short a time to gauge the contribution diet drinks can make to weight loss.
The authors of the study say they plan to keep it going for a year, and they vehemently deny accusations that the beverage industry influenced their work.

I was overweight and tried so many things. Different things work for different people and I was lucky enough to find one that worked for me. I lost 19 pounds in one month without much exercise and it has been a life changer. I'm a little embarrased to post my before and after photos here but if anyone actually cares to hear what I've been doing then I'd be happy to help in any way. Just shoot me an email at firstname.lastname@example.com and I'll show you my before and after photos, and tell you about how things are going for me with the stuff I've tried. I wish someone would have helped me out when I was struggling to find a solution so if I can help you then it would make my day

Read James Cameron's Fond Farewell to James Horner
Posted on Tuesday, June 23rd, 2015 by Russ Fischer
The film world is still reeling from news of a plane crash that appears to have taken the life of Oscar-winning composer James Horner. I say "appears" because Horner's own attorney remains unable to confirm the composer's death, more than twenty-four hours after the crash. A statement was released, however, saying "Although we are all awaiting official confirmation that our dear friend and client James Horner was in fact the pilot, we are shocked and deeply saddened to learn that his single-engine aircraft was involved in a fatal crash yesterday morning in northern Ventura County." A confirmation seems like a formality at this point, given everything we do know.
Other filmmakers are speaking out about Horner's passing and his influence. James Cameron's film Aliens led to Horner's first Oscar nomination and also caused a rift between the two men that wasn't healed for a decade. The two reunited to work on Titanic, which led to two Oscar wins for Horner, and they paired again another decade later for Avatar.
Now Cameron has released an extensive remembrance of James Horner, some of which you can read below. Read More »

Do dress codes help to foster an environment conducive to learning? Do they help prevent clothing (or the lack of) from becoming a distraction for students?
Or are school dress codes sexist, old-fashioned and ineffective?
Are school dress codes a good idea?
The following lesson activities are based on the article "New York High School Wrestlers Break Stereotypes in Coed Division."
Before Reading
Do you think girls and boys should be on the same high school athletic teams instead of competing in separate male and female divisions? Why?
: subtly skillful handling of a situation
The word finesse has appeared in 186 New York Times articles in the past year, including on Dec. 26 in "Patricia Field Hangs Up Her Retail Wig" by Michael Schulman:
Please Note: This week we are featuring a special photograph that has never before been seen by the public.
While we ask young people to discuss "What's Going On in This Picture?" here, The Times is posing the same question to adults as part of a special "Unpublished Black History" project that is spotlighting images from the Times's archives all month long.
You can see many more photos from the project here.
1. After looking closely at the image above (or at the full-size image), think about these three questions:
Note: We invite any English Language Learner student 13 years or older to post comments in response to the writing prompts in this post.
First, watch the video (above) "Yangon Celebrates Chinese New Year With Dragon Dance Parade," which is from last year's celebration.
The following lesson activities are based on the article "Broncos and Peyton Manning Stun Panthers to Win Super Bowl 50."
Before Reading
Discuss your level of interest in the Super Bowl. Did you watch the game? Even if you did not, what do you think about the lead-up to the event and the media attention surrounding the host city, advertisements and halftime entertainment?
How often do the college students you know communicate with their families? How much do the students share about their academic pursuits, social lives and post-college goals with their families?
If you are a college student, are you happy with the balance you've achieved between family support and the freedom that college affords?
In the Education Life article "The Sheltering Campus: Why College Is Not Home," A. Douglas Stone, a physics professor at Yale, and Mary Schwab-Stone, a psychiatrist who recently retired from the faculty of the Yale Child Study Center, look at the years spent in college from a developmental perspective. They write:
wanderlust •\ˈwän-dər-ˌləst\• noun
: very strong or irresistible impulse to travel

The perception surrounding Tyler Colvin has been that the Cubs mishandled their 2006 first round draft pick and a change of scenery would probably do him good. But the perception is really not correct. Colvin has far too many flaws in his game and was given opportunities by the Cubs to prove he belonged in the big leagues and he did not produce. Perhaps the perceptions began with the abortive Lou Piniella days as the Cubs manager when Colvin could not get out of Piniella's doghouse. But, though Piniella was not a good manager for the Cubs, the doghouse was the right place for the young player. Then last night, Tyler Colvin got four hits against the Nationals pushing his average is over .300. Perhaps he has found himself. Nope. It is a Coors Field mirage. The knocks on Helton's career are unfounded. The guy could flat out hit whether it be at Coors or anywhere else. But Coors has produced its share of mirages over the years. Colvin is another in a long line of such players. Oh...

I have multiple client handler threads, these threads need to pass received object to a server queue and the sever queue will pass another type of object back to the sending thread. The server queue is started and keeps running when the server starts.I am not sure which thread mechanism to use for the client handler threads notified an object is sent back. I don't intend to use socket or writing to a file.
If you wanted to do actual message passing take a look at SynchronusQueue. Each thread will have reference to the queue and would wait until one thread passed the reference through the queue.
This would be thread safe and address your requirements.
Though if you are simply looking to have threads read and write a shared variable you can use normalocity's suggestion though it's thread-safety depends on how you access it (via sychronized or volatile)
As far as making objects accessible in Java, there's no difference between multi-thread and single-thread. You just follow the scope rules (public, private, protected), and that's it. Multiple threads all run within the same process, so there isn't any special thread-only scope rules to know about.
For example, define a method where you pass the object in, and make that method accessible from the other thread. The object you want to pass around simply needs to be accessible from the other thread's scope.
As far as thread-safety, you can synchronize your writes, and for the most part, that will take care of things. Thread safety can get a bit hairy the more complicated your code, but I think this will get you started.
One method for processing objects, and producing result objects is to have a shared array or LinkedList that acts as a queue of objects, containing the objects to be processed, and the resulting objects from that processing. It's hard to go into much more detail than that without more specifics on what exactly you're trying to do, but most shared access to objects between threads comes down to either inter-thread method calls, or some shared collection/queue of objects.
Unless you are absolutely certain that it will always be only a single object at a time, use some sort of Queue.
If you are certain that it will always be only a single object at a time, use some sort of Queue anyway. :-)
why? Almost guaranteed to provide better general performance than any thing hand rolled.
recommendation: use a bound queue and you will get back-pressure for free.
note: the depth of queue determines your general latency characteristics: shallower queues will have lower latencies at the cost of reduced bandwidth.
why? Futures provide a proven and standard means of getting asynchronous result.
recommendation: create a simple Request class and expose a method #getFutureResponse(). The implementation of this method can use a variety of signaling strategies, such as Lock, flag (using Atomic/CAS), etc.
note: use of timeout semantics in Future will allow you to link server behavior to your server SLA e.g. #getFutureResponse(sla_timeout_ms).
A book tip for if you want to dive a bit more into communication between threads (or processes, or systems): Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture Volume 2: Patterns for Concurrent and Networked Objects
Just use simple dependency injection.
You can now do
I find this to be the safest way. Other solutions involve using
You may also want to use BlockingQueue and pass both of those to each thread. If you plan to have more than one thread then it is probably a better solution.

you do realise it's not 'over 50' but 'over 50 pics' as in there's 58 pics. Did you really think some of these guys were over 50?
August 9th, 2013 at 5:16 am
WOOF!! Another great set of real men that span several decades. I have to feel sorry for some of the regulars here, often late 30's to 60's, that only have eyes for the Bel Ami bois. They dismiss hunks like these with comments like "past their use by dates" or " one foot in the grave". What do they see in the mirror? Do they think these young guys look at them and think what a hot guy or see grandpa? It must get lonely quick when you reject your own age group and most everybody else as past their prime. What happens to the Bel Ami boy when he suddenly sports a chest full of hair or can grow a full beard…did he just turn ugly? It's sad to have your world turn so quickly to disappointment with so many decades to go. Time waits for no man. You either look forward with anticipation or spend it looking backward with regret. The guys above look great each in their own way and seem to have spent their lives looking ahead with confidence and life…that's sexy!

I just found out I am pregnant - currently only four weeks. I have had a vacation planned to Mexico since the fall and I am due to leave at the beginning of May, which would be 8 weeks. I called my doctor's office and the nurse said it was fine to go, but to be careful what I ate and drank. I dont see the doctor until two days after I get back at 9 weeks. I was wondering if you think I should push the doctor for an earlier appointment to make sure everything is okay before I leave... I dont want to find out I have an ectopic preg. or some other complication while in Mexico... I dont know if I trust their doctors.
Vacation to Mexico?

Unless you have had a previous complication, I don't see the problem in waiting until you get back. If it's just to ease your mind though, see if you can get in before. After all, who wants to go to Mexico and be a worry wart the whole time?
Have fun!
Wife to Kirk 8-9-08. Mom to Elise 2-11-09. Expecting Baby Henderson 12-1-10.
Life Is Good!
i would push to see the dr.
how long will you be away? have you had your vaccinations? drink only bottled or boiled water and try to avoid street food (clean restaurants only) if possible (which takes a lot of fun out of a trip to mexico ... but better to be safe)!
A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men. DS:11/10; DD: 9/07
I would push to see the heartbeat before I leave for Mexico. You must ask questions prior to your trip like matilda said regarding vacinations and etc. I would not drink the water unless you are staying at a 5-star hotel and I'd probably only eat at the hotel too. That would be hard for me because I love eating native food when I travel. I'd be more concerned about the crime that's going on in Mexico now moreso than the baby. Did you get insurance for this trip? If so and if you feel uncomfortable, you can always cancel or change the trip to another destination. Good luck!
Thanks for your input everyone - I think Im going to push to see the doctor. Im staying at a nice all-inclusive - its supposed to be 5-star, but I have learned that means different things depending upon what country you are in! :-) The water on the resort is purified and I really didnt plan on leaving given the situation in Mexico anyways - I was really more concerned about a medical emergency, but if I can get in to see the doctor before I leave Ill feel better. I am up to date on all vaccinations and will stick to bottled water!!! Thanks everyone!

OMG ladies, it is Mexico, not a foreign planet. I am American, and I have been living in Mexico for seven years. FYI: NO ONE drinks tap water in Mexico. EVERYONE drinks bottled water. And if you are in a tourist area such as Los Cabos, Cancun, Puerto Vallarta or the like, I can almost guarantee you that you will not even see "real" Mexico; you will be in a tourist bubble, so you don't need to worry about getting your tacos from a street cart. I never have! Many 5 star hotels will have filtered water that is safe to drink from the tap, but even if they don't you can still brush your teeth with tap water and you will be fine. Also, I have a fantastic OBGYN here in Mexico City, so if you do need a doctor while you are in Mexico, PAN me and I can ask him if he has someone to recommend where you are.
That being said, I would get into your doctor if possible before the trip to put your mind at ease.
I just found out I am pregnant - I am four weeks also. My husband and I are both very excited, but nervous because I miscarried last August. We have a trip to Mexico planned for May 19-26 and we are contemplating whether or not we should go. My doc says it's fine (I will be right at 10 weeks when we go.) I am with you - I don't trust the medical care there if something should happen. My first appt is May 7, so at least I will see him before we leave. We just payed for the trip last week lol. At least we got the full insurance in case we have to cancel at the last minute. I really want to go because it will be our last big vacation before baby (plus, our 5th anniversary is May 21) but I would rather be safe than sorry.
I would def try to get in to see your doc before your trip. That way you will be able to relax and enjoy yourself

I am also 4 weeks and going to Mexico twice in May . . .one weekend on a cruise for my friend's bachelorette party. Totally not worried about the cruise ship. But then going back to Mexico the following weekend for missions work. I'm a little nervous about food and water there. We're building an orphrange so the resources will be a little rough there. . . I have yet to speak with doctor about this.
Erin - Thank you very much I will keep that in mind. I called my doctor and they were adamant that unless I have a history of miscarriage (its my first preg. so I guess I wouldnt know) they wont see me until 9 weeks... Im not giving up though - Im calling back this afternoon :-)
The resort has a doctor on staff so that is comforting... We are staying in Playa Del Carmen, so Im not worried about the crime or anything like that, but I am still a little leary of going without having an u/s first just to make sure everything is okay. That being said, I have NO intention of cancelling my last trip before the baby, so if the doctor wont see me, Im going to go and just hope everything works out fine... which im sure it will.

Playa Del Carmen is a wonderful place, what resort are you staying at? I own a timeshare in Rivera Maya just a 5-10 minute cab drive to the town of Playa Del Carmen. The resort that I have a timeshare at is the Royal Hacienda, my husband and I went there for our honeymoon and stayed at a resort Gran Coco Bay, it was only a 10 min walk to the town of Playa Del Carmen. Most 5 star resorts do have a doctor on site and everyone who works at the resorts are extremely friendly and would be more than happy to help you.
On your concern about getting into the doctor before your trip, if you dont you should feel relief that your doctor feels it is ok for you to travel and doesnt see fit that to get an appointment in before you leave. It is a sign of a healthy pregnancy from the start. Most women that have earlier 1st time appointments is because those women have fertlility issues.

My professional career has revolved around instructing students in chemistry and biology mainly at a liberal arts college in Palos Verdes. While many students say these subjects are hard, I am a firm believer that the difficulty usually stems from the way the subject is taught and a lack of emphasis on the work that must be done to practice concepts. In my teaching I stress that any science is just like a foreign language and must be practiced as such to gain understanding.
I have 2 Master's degrees in biology and biochemistry, which has allowed me to teach a variety of courses over the years. I have been employed mainly as chemistry teacher for a liberal arts college in Palos Verdes for nearly two decades but have also instructed high school biology for summer schools. Most importantly, I was also a private tutor for several years instructing students in the sciences and math. While I absolutely enjoy the classroom interactions as part of my job, I also equally enjoy the one-on-one level instruction tutoring provides. In the past I have worked with the same student over several years as they matured from grade school to college and am grateful for the opportunity be a part of their growing process.
As I live in Costa Mesa and work in Palos Verdes this semester, I am available for tutoring anywhere from the South Bay to Northwestern Orange county region. My professional career has revolved around instructing students in chemistry and biology mainly at a liberal arts college in Palos Verdes. While many students say these subjects are hard, I am a firm believer that the difficulty
James was very helpful and knew the material well. He was also very accommodating in fitting me into his schedule. Best chemistry tutor I have had.
James and the time spent with him was very productive.
He has a great manner of teaching which was good to grasp onto the subject matter at hand!!
James is an awesome tutor. I am working with him on biochemistry and he always comes well prepared for each lesson and is timely. He is very thorough and goes into great detail. James is great.
Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
While much of my formal training involves protein chemistry, I am proficient in understanding the overall common pathways that often trouble students especially glycolysis/oxidative phosphorylation, photosynthesis, replication, transcription/translation, etc. Understanding the overall pathway (and their reactions) and the interdependence in metabolism is key to doing well in any biochemistry course.
While much of my professional experience is in teaching chemistry/biochemistry, I have taught several accelerated high school summer programs in general chemistry and marine biology. While many complain about the level of memorization often associated with biology, my goal is to teach the connectivity of the subject whether it be cellular biology, anatomy/physiology, or ecology. In my experiences, students do not have trouble memorizing facts but connecting them together into an overall understanding.
I have instructed college chemistry for 15 at a liberal arts college in PV. From my teaching and tutoring experiences, I am quite comfortable in most general and organic chemistry topics. This includes being adept at both calculations and theory of measurements, stoichiometry, thermochemsitry, equillibrium, redox, nomenclature and reaction mechanisms.
I have 2 Master's degrees in biology and biochemistry, which have allowed me to teach a variety of courses over the years. Understanding O chem is to treat the subject like any foreign language with rules that must be practiced. This includes the nomenclature of organic families and the mechanisms that synthesize and react them. In addition understanding the physical properties of organic molecules (such as chirality and isomerism) allows for a better understanding of more advanced topics such as biochemistry.

The Good: Light, stiff, design, quality
The Bad: None after 3 years
Been rocking this stem for three years now and i still have nothing bad to say about it. It is a nicely engineered two piece design with all excess material removed to bring it's weight down to 150grams with the bolts. As stiff as some other brands big blocky stems that weight 250g. It is very easy to remove and put back since you don't have to disassemble it to remove from the fork steerer. The price is a bit steep but you get the proven Renthal quality and a component that gonna follow you on more than one bike build. By the way, Thompson stems are highly overrated...

Mortgage Life Insurance
Helping you protect all the things you work hard for...
Get Quote - Compare Top 10 UK Insurers
Nabil was very helpful and patient in helping to make a decision. He was not pushy in selling a cover. Very good relation overall....
With Drewberry everything was made easy and basically with one call I had the insurance done. My adviser was Kay Mechial and I must say he was superb...
What is mortgage life insurance?
The purpose of mortgage protection life insurance is to cover your home loan in the unfortunate event that you pass away. The plan would payout a tax-free lump-sum to repay the loan in full should you die within the policy term.
Suitable mortgage life cover can be arranged whether you have a capital repayment mortgage (decreasing term insurance) or an interest-only loan (level term insurance). It is also sensible to consider adding critical illness protection to your plan in order to cover the risk of serious illness or injury.
Joint Mortgage Protection: If you have a joint mortgage with your partner it is possible to take out a joint life insurance plan so that the policy would payout should either partner pass away. This means that the remaining partner would have the funds necessary to repay the mortgage and not have to struggle financially to meet the loan repayments on their own.
Do I need this protection?
Mortgage life cover (sometimes known as mortgage death insurance) is a very common form of family protection. When deciding whether you need this insurance it is important to consider what the consequences would be if you were to pass way. If you have a family would they still be able to keep up with the mortgage repayments? If the answer is 'no' then life cover is usually a sensible form of long-term financial planning.
Mortgage protection life insurance is very popular with couples taking out a joint mortgage as the monthly loan repayments are often based on the income of both partners. If one partner were to pass way this would often leave a financially unmanageable loan for the remaining partner.
What is decreasing cover?
With a decreasing term life insurance plan the level of cover declines over time, reaching zero by the end of the policy term. This type of life cover is designed to protect a capital/principal repayment mortgage where the amount outstanding on the loan declines to zero over time (i.e. the home is owned outright by the end of the loan term).
Decreasing term insurance is the most cost-effective form of life insurance for mortgages as the risk to insurer declines over time as the level of cover falls. This enables the premium rates to be far lower than with traditional level term life cover.
One important point to note with this type of policy is that the level of cover declines in accordance with an assumed interest rate, much like the amount outstanding on your home loan. Most plans automatically assume a rate of 8 to 10 per cent, which provides some flexibility for mortgage interest rate fluctuations.
What is level term cover?
With level term life insurance the amount of cover remains fixed over the life of the plan. This means that if you take out a plan with £200,000 worth of life cover today, for example, this amount of protection will remain fixed at £200,000 right up until the end of the policy.
This type of protection plan is most suitable for covering an interest-only mortgage loan as the amount outstanding on the loan remains fixed over time, and therefore so should the amount of life cover.
Can I include critical illness insurance?
When taking out mortgage life insurance protection it makes sense to consider the option of adding critical illness insurance to your plan. Including this option means the plan would also payout a lump-sum should you suffer a 'critical illness' (serious illness or injury) defined in the policy schedule.
Leading plans cover over 35 critical illness conditions, including various types of cancer, heart attack, stroke and diseases of the central nervous system (multiple sclerosis and Parkinson's disease, for example). In addition to illness, plans also cover physical injuries such as total permanent disability, loss of limbs, blindness and coma.
When deciding whether or not to include critical illness cover it is important not only to consider your current health and lifestyle risks but also to plan ahead for the future, mortgages tend to run for a very long time. Rates for this cover do rise considerably with age so it usually makes sense to take out a plan on guaranteed (fixed) rates as young as possible.
Do I need to write the policy into trust?
There is generally no need to write life insurance for mortgages into trust as the payout from the insurer is destined for the mortgage lender and not to be passed on as inheritance. This is especially the case with joint life plans as the remaining partner would receive the funds from the insurer and repay the lender directly.
However, it may be worth setting up a discretionary trust for a single life plan as the payout could be paid through the trust directly to your chosen beneficiary (most likely your partner), who could then repay the loan. This set-up would be much quicker and far less hassle compared to going through the probate court process for the lender to obtain those funds from your personal estate (which can often take over 6 months).
Do I need advice?
As independent mortgage life insurance brokers we are ideally placed not only to obtain you the cheapest quote from our large panel of insurers but also to provide impartial advice, ensuring that you get the right cover for your needs.

Beneath a minor physical refresh, the 2016 Honda Accord gets a dashboard tech overhaul that is both simpler in operation and more feature rich than before.
Significantly improved over the last generation's performance, technology and curb appeal, the 2016 Honda Pilot is once again a top contender in the eight-passenger SUV class.
Among the many crossovers available, the 2016 Kia Sorento appears more tech-forward than most, with an advanced engine, driver assist features and app integration, but a few configuration requirements might turn potential buyers away.
The 2015 Kia Sedona competes well with other minivans for ease of driving and fuel economy, and shines for its suite of driver assistance features, but look elsewhere if you want a full-featured built-in rear-seat entertainment system.
The flexible, fun 2015 Honda Fit loses a bit of its sporty edge for this generation, but continues to stand out as a strong, driver-friendly choice in a very crowded segment.
The EX-FR10 is capable of switching from a normal shooting mode to a selfie camera, and even splitting into two for remote shooting.
The Netgear X6100's awkward design and frustrating performance make it suitable only for casual networking tasks.
The 2014 Honda Odyssey is a comfortable and family-friendly minivan with a solid feature-set, but its odd interface makes cabin electronics difficult to use.
With its friendly pricing, fast performance, and handy personal cloud features, the WD My Cloud EX2 is an ideal network storage device for a small connected home.
It's not the fastest NAS, nor does it include many advanced features, but the WD My Cloud EX4 still combines great ease of use into an affordable personal cloud system that's excellent for a connected home.

Beach and Coastal Cleanups
"Life's most persistent and urgent question is: 'What are you doing for others?'"
– Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Martin Luther King Jr. National Day of Service was on Monday, January 18, and we were excited to once again celebrate Dr. King's legacy. Aquarium of the Bay led a beach cleanup at our usual spot at Aquatic Park alongside our longtime partner, SF Maritime National Historical Park. We worked alongside with our colleagues from the EcoCenter at Heron's Head Park for a cleanup at the other end of the Embarcadero, thanks to support from the California Coastal Commission's Whale Tail program.
Aquatic Park MLK Beach Cleanup
When: Monday, January 18, 2016 from 9 am-12 pm
Where: Aquatic Park beach and surrounding shoreline – meet at the end of Jefferson St., by the propeller sculpture (just west of Hyde Street Pier)
What to bring: signed registration waiver, comfortable clothes, sturdy shoes, sunscreen, a reusable water bottle, and a reusable coffee mug if you'd like free coffee generously provided by Biscoff Coffee Corner
Together we can take action in support of a trash-free bay.
A Look Back: 2015 Aquatic Park Cleanups
Other Bay Area beach and shoreline cleanup opportunities:
EcoCenter at Heron's Head Park
Surfrider SF Chapter

Summer Guide
Ah, summer. Whenever we make a list of five or six favorite seasons, the one associated with such popular months as June, July, and August always performs with distinction, right up there in the Top Three. In fact there are those among us who would prefer that summer repeat itself over and over in some kind of dangerous Elysian loop, and those are the people who sometimes move to California, where they will be unhappy and not get to attend Lumberjack Days. Now that you've read every word of the imagined liner notes to the K-tel collection of our provincial dreams (see "Minnesota's 50 Greatest Hits"), you should be primed for our giant list of things to do this summer. We start with all the big concerts happening through Labor Day, with a few singled out for extra attention. You'll also find info on area petting zoos and nudist clubs--not the same thing, we remind you--beaches, swimming pools, sports clubs, golf courses both mini and maxi, hiking trails, farmers' markets, and more. Want to take scuba lessons or pick strawberries? We can help you there, too. Want to pick strawberries and eat them at the Aesop Rock show with some of your new friends from the nudist club? Hey, anything's possible, though we might also direct you to our personals section.

Oil sector may falter as Libya crisis worsens; OPEC producer is Africa's top holder of oil reserves; Oil surged 9 pct Tuesday on risk of Libya chaos spreading.
February 23, 2011 1:48 by Reuters
Regardless of what comes next in Libya's lethal political standoff, the OPEC country's oil sector is nearly certain to suffer, bringing long-lasting supply disruptions or even permanent damage.
None of several potential outcomes is benign for Libya's oil industry — the lifeblood of its economy — or for oil prices. The scenarios run the gamut from all-out civil war and attacks on energy infrastructure to low-level neglect and reservoir damage, as foreign expertise flees the country.
Over decades, from Iran, to Iraq and Venezuela, periods of political chaos in OPEC countries have usually carved lasting scars on the oil sector, and few expect Libya to be any different.
"A period of chaos will probably interrupt Libya's refining and oil operations," said Amy Jaffe, an energy studies fellow and Middle East expert at Rice University in Houston. "The military is abandoning Gaddafi, so it's unclear who is left to protect oil installations. Lots of foreigners are being evacuated, so who will remain in place capable of operating Libya's oil industry? Will workers even show up?"
As Africa's No. 3 producer and the site of the continent's largest proved reserves, estimated at 44 billion barrels, Libyan oil usually accounts for 2 percent of world output.
The country, whose oil accounts for a fourth of Italy's demand, is the first major oil exporter to be thrust into acute turmoil since protests began sweeping through the Middle East in January, unseating presidents in Tunisia and Egypt so far. An estimated 300,000 barrels per day (bpd) of Libya's 1.6 million bpd of production has been halted, as companies evacuate staff and suspend operations. Much of the country's oil industry is run by foreign firms including Eni and Repsol , while Libya's National Oil Corporation (NOC) has traditionally been tightly controlled by Gaddafi.
Libyan strongman Muammar Gaddafi defiantly pledged on Tuesday to stay in power at any cost, threatening to have protesters hunted down and killed "house by house." With rival factions already laying claim to an oil-rich swath of eastern Libya, separated by hundreds of miles of desert from capital Tripoli in the west, the country could even face civil war, analysts warned.
