Extra patrols caught a few people who allegedly had too many drinks this holiday weekend, but Clark County appeared to be free of serious DUI-related traffic accidents, officials said.
Troopers with Washington State Patrol's District 5, which serves Lewis, Cowlitz, Clark, Skamania and Klickitat counties, stopped 36 alleged DUI drivers between Wednesday morning and 5 a.m. Monday. (Twenty-six of those were in the Vancouver area.)
State patrol spokesman Trooper Ryan Tanner said those numbers mean troopers did a good job keeping the roads safe. His district had five overtime shifts over the weekend in Clark County: two on Friday and three on Sunday.
Over the weekend there were at least three DUI-related crashes in the county but they appeared to be minor-injury or no-injury crashes, Tanner said.
The state patrol usually has overtime shifts on Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's, when people travel long distances to attend functions with family and friends.
"We all know alcohol gets served at those things," Tanner said. "With extra patrols, we typically see an increase in DUI arrests."
State troopers were joined by the Clark County Sheriff's Office and the Battle Ground, Camas, La Center, Ridgefield, Vancouver and Washougal police departments that have extra DUI patrols through Jan. 2.
Money for the extra shifts comes from federal gas tax dollars and is distributed through the Washington Traffic Safety Commission, program manager Angie Ward said.
The commission is spending a little less than it has in previous years, but is seeing a positive change in residents' behavior.
"People are getting better this year when it comes to plans," Ward said.
The commission isn't asking people not to drink, she said, it just wants them to think about how they'll get home before they start drinking.
During last year's Thanksgiving-to-New Year campaign, 226 people were arrested in Clark County on suspicion of DUI, according to data from the WTSC.
The only serious suspected DUI-related accident in the Southwest Washington area this past weekend happened just before 2:30 a.m. Sunday on state Highway 4 near Longview, Tanner said.
According to a state patrol bulletin, a 2002 Volkswagen Jetta driven by Brandon L. Warren, 22, of Clatskanie, Ore., was traveling west on Highway 4 west of Longview when the car swerved to the left, crossed the eastbound lanes and went off the roadway. The car struck a guardrail, power pole and tree before coming to a stop down an embankment. A passenger in the car, Jared L. Britton, 22, also of Clatskanie, Ore., was trapped under the car for 2[ ] hours while officials moved the power line off the car, Tanner said.
Britton was flown by Life Flight from St. John Medical Center in Longview to PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center with multiple fractures. He was listed in satisfactory condition on Monday, a PeaceHealth employee said.
Warren was transported to St. John with a fractured back. He was arrested on suspicion of vehicular assault and DUI, the bulletin said.
The state patrol is expected to release official numbers for statewide crash fatalities over the Thanksgiving weekend later in the week.
Oregon State Police said in a release its officers made nine DUII arrests in the Portland area between 6 p.m. Wednesday and 11:59 p.m. Sunday. It says three people died in three separate traffic crashes across Oregon in the same time period.

iPSC-Derived T Cells for the Prevention of Autoimmune Pulmonary Hypertension
Stem cell therapy is offering new hope to patients currently suffering serious or even lethal medical conditions. One such condition is called pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) which affects thousands in the U.S. every year and for which there is no cure. PAH mainly affects young to middle aged women and is often the result of systemic inflammation (called autoimmunity) which attacks the blood vessels in the lungs. The injury to the blood vessels leads to very high blood pressures in the patient's right heart causing early death. A prevailing theory for why systemic inflammation occurs in autoimmune diseases is that key cells in the immune system, called 'regulatory T cells' or 'Tregs', are not working properly or are too few in number. For example, patients with a condition known as systemic sclerosis associated PAH (a condition associated with decreased Treg function) have a three year survival rate of 56%. A treatment or cure is desperately needed for PAH.
Because animal models of autoimmune disease have shown that Treg cells, injected as therapy, can prevent or treat disease, there has been considerable enthusiasm for giving Tregs back to patients with autoimmune diseases. Physicians ideally would take a patient's blood sample, grow up Tregs in the lab (outside of the patient's body), and then, when enough functional Tregs were present, would administer these cells back to the patient. Unfortunately, this approach has not proven feasible for Tregs; it has proven too difficult to raise sufficient numbers of cells to be useful as a therapy. Clearly, a new strategy is needed, and fortunately, stem cell technologies are now available to provide the answer.
We have developed an animal model of PAH which looks very similar to the human PAH. These animals (rats) develop inflammation in the blood vessels of the lung and develop severe PAH. These animals also have poor Treg function and, importantly, do not develop PAH if they are given Treg therapy. It currently takes about 3 rat donors to provide enough Treg cells to treat one rat. Our group is interested in using this animal model to show that it is possible to overcome the problem encountered with patients and generate Tregs directly from stem cells. This approach has the promise of producing sufficient numbers of Tregs to treat PAH. Proving that this approach is feasible in animals is an important first step before going to clinical trials. The aims of this project are, first, to create rat stem cells which have the capacity to grow into multiple cell types (i.e. a pluripotent cell), then mature these cells further into Tregs. Next, we will inject genetically- labeled cells into the animals' bodies to learn where these cells go and how long they live. Finally, we will give these manufactured Tregs to our animals to see if PAH is prevented. With success, this approach could provide a much-needed treatment for PAH patients as well as for other patients suffering autoimmune diseases.
The proposed research will be of potential benefit for patients and families impacted by autoimmune diseases which are significant health problems for the residents of California and other states. The science outlined in this proposal involves creating cells, called regulatory T cells, which can be used to prevent or treat autoimmune conditions. We are specifically targeting a deadly heart and lung disease known as pulmonary arterial hypertension, which affects thousands of Californians every year. The proposed research is testing the principle that regulatory T cells can be grown up from stem cells and be effective for treating experimental pulmonary arterial hypertension in laboratory animals. Knowledge gained from this science could then be used to help humans with pulmonary arterial hypertension and other autoimmune disorders.

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a method for reducing/eliminating crosstalk between waveguide grating-based biosensors that are located within the wells of a microplate and the resulting microplate.
2. Description of Related Art
Manufacturers of optical sensing microplates (OSMs) have been trying to develop new methods they can use to manufacture a microplate so as to eliminate crosstalk between waveguide grating-based biosensors that are incorporated within the wells of the microplate. Several new methods for eliminating crosstalk between biosensors incorporated within the wells of a microplate are the subject of the present invention.
The present invention includes several methods for modifying the current processes of manufacturing optical sensing microplates that use continuous waveguide films to eliminate crosstalk between the biosensors that are incorporated within wells. The methods include (1) physically deteriorating/removing the waveguide film between individual biosensors; (2) chemically depositing highly absorbing materials onto the waveguide film between individual biosensors; (3) patterning disordered (scattering) regions between the diffraction gratings that define individual biosensors; (4) using a specific mask and depositing individual patches of waveguide film, where each patch defines at least one biosensor. Each of these methods and several other methods described herein prevent or significantly reduce the propagation of light between individual sensing regions, thereby eliminating or reducing optical crosstalk between the biosensors. The present invention also includes the resulting microplate.
A more complete understanding of the present invention may be had by reference to the following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings wherein:
A method for eliminating crosstalk between waveguide grating-based biosensors which are incorporated within the wells of a microplate is described herein. However, prior to describing this method and several different embodiments of this method a brief discussion is provided about the structure and function of waveguide grating-based biosensors. Also, provided is a brief description about several traditional methods which are used today in an attempt to address the problematical crosstalk that occurs between biosensors when they are incorporated within the wells of a microplate.
A laser or luminescent diode (not shown) emits light 102 that is coupled into the waveguide 104 only at a specific angle and wavelength. The coupling angle and wavelength are determined by a phase-matching condition of the waveguide-grating structure which occurs when a non-normal component of a propagation vector of the incoming light 102, a wavevector of the diffraction grating 106, and a propagation constant of a guided mode (β) all sum to zero. At these specific angles/wavelengths, the coupled light 102 propagates parallel to a surface 116 in the plane of the waveguide film 108 creating an electromagnetic field in the biological layer 112/cover medium 114. The guided waves or modes of the coupled light 102 in the planar waveguide 104 are TEm (transverse electric or s-polarized) or TMm (transverse magnetic or p-polarized), where m=0, 1, 2, . . . is the mode number. A given mode of the coupled light 102 propagates as a guided wave only if two conditions are met: (a) the refractive index of the waveguide film 108 is larger than the refractive indices of the substrate 110 and probe molecule (e.g., biological) layer 112/cover medium 114; and (2) the thickness df of the waveguide film 108 is larger than a value well known in the field as the cut-off thickness (not shown).
Because the evanescent field of the guided mode projects into the probe (e.g., biological) layer 112/cover liquid 114, the waveguide mode is extremely sensitive to the cover environment. When a biological binding event occurs at or near the waveguide surface 116, the effective index of the probe molecule layer 112/cover medium 114 changes in accordance with the mass of the biological moieties bound. When the effective index of the cover layer changes, the waveguide propagation constant of the waveguide mode also changes in accordance with Maxwell's electromagnetic equations. This means that the preferred input light coupling angle/wavelength condition will also change in accordance with the change of the waveguide propagation constant. It is this macroscopic physical change that is monitored so as to indicate the microscopic biological binding event.
For a more detailed discussion about the structure and function of the waveguide grating-based biosensor 100 reference is made to the following documents:
The contents of these documents are hereby incorporated by reference herein.
Single waveguide grating-based biosensors 100 are commonly used for affinity determination, where probe molecules are immobilized or tethered on the waveguide surface 116 and used as a recognition sites to "fish" out a specific binding target from a sample in the cell medium 114, or to determine the binding affinity with a compound or ligand in the medium 114. With the changing paradigm in the drug discovery space, the number of drug targets is expanding and so is the volume of assay points performed in high-throughput screens. To take advantage of the fluorescent label-free detection capability of the waveguide grating-based biosensor 100 and to meet the industrial demand for high-throughput screens, a microplate which has a two-dimensional (2-D) array of the biosensors 100 located on the bottoms of its wells has been proposed.
The current method of manufacturing the microplate 200 involves vapor deposition of a continuous waveguide film 108 onto a support substrate 110 (e.g., glass 110) presenting grating structured areas 106 (see
Because a continuous waveguide film 108 having separated grating structures 106 formed therein is used in the microplate 200, there can be significant crosstalk between nearby wells 202 that are located in the same column or row. And, due to the nature of the incident light and the coupling to the mode, the cross-talk that is induced by the coupled mode crossing from one sensor 100 to another sensor 100 may be unidirectional. Hence the cross-talk may occur from one well 202 to an adjacent well 202, but not in reverse. However, cross-talk may occur in both directions simultaneously if the nature of the illumination and the waveguide modes defined by the structure are such as to create excitation of more than one mode and/or those modes propagate in opposite directions. In this case, cross-talk between wells 202 may be bi-directional in that responses from two adjacent wells 202 may mutually influence each other. Another possible mechanism for the occurrence of the crosstalk is due to the trapping and propagation of scattered light in the continuous waveguide film; this may result from the many possible reflections in the multi-layer structure in conjunction with the waveguiding ability of the high index film.
Two experimental examples of crosstalk between nearby wells are shown in
In the past, the problem of crosstalk in microplates could be avoided by interrogating only a few biosensors 100 at one time. For example, the optical interrogation system (not shown) might only interrogate one biosensor 100 at a time. Or, the optical interrogation system might interrogate every other biosensor 100, so as to avoid nearest-neighbor (the most significant) crosstalk. Since the waveguide grating-based biosensors 100 used today typically utilize one-dimensional propagation, the crosstalk can also be much stronger for neighboring wells 202 which are located parallel to the direction of propagation. In such cases, other optical interrogation systems have been designed to simultaneously interrogate neighboring wells 202 only in a direction perpendicular to the propagation direction (e.g. only one row or one column at a time). Unfortunately, all of these approaches necessitate that only a subset of the biosensors 100 in the microplate 200 can be interrogated at a given time. This increases the overall time required to interrogate the entire microplate 200, and undermines the inherent multiplexing capability of the full microplate 200. The microplate 500 and method 600 of the present invention remove this crosstalk barrier which allows the parallel interrogation of all of the biosensors 100 located in the microplate 500.
Some additional features and advantages of using the optical LID system 100 of the present invention are as follows:
Although several embodiments of the present invention have been illustrated in the accompanying Drawings and described in the foregoing Detailed Description, it should be understood that the invention is not limited to the embodiments disclosed, but is capable of numerous rearrangements, modifications and substitutions without departing from the spirit of the invention as set forth and defined by the following claims.

So I attempted another Anthropologie necklace, and I think this one turned out better than the last. When I found this necklace on the Anthro website, I giggled. It's so quirky and cute, but way out of my price range at $118.
To make a Dollar Store Spectacle Necklace, you will need:
dollar store reading glasses
wire cutter
glue gun
necklace chain
My dollar store didn't have a great selection of reading glasses when I went the other day, but usually I can find a display of them right by the checkout. After perusing them for a few minutes, I found a pair that had a shape I didn't mind. I would have like the frames to be a little bigger, but Dollar Tree shoppers can't be choosers.
First you need to pop the lenses out of the frames. I had a hard time getting them out, so I ended up cutting the frames. This actually made getting the yarn on the frames easier too.
In retrospect, it would have been better to cut the frames closer to the bridge than to the stems. Live and learn. Remove the lenses and break off the stems.
To get the yarn on the frames to look like the inspiration piece, you are basically using a knitting cast on process. Tie the end of your yarn onto the frame. Then make a small loop of yarn with the end of the yarn leading back to the skein of yarn in front. Slip that loop over the glasses frame. Pull to tighten.
Like this:
Repeat until you have the frames totally covered. Use a small drop of hot glue to close the frames back up where you snipped them. Your frames should look something like this:
If I were to do this again, I would use less furry yarn and possibly thinner frames. The original necklace looks more delicate, and I think the bulky yarn I used takes away from that.
Add the chain to the frame by either attaching it to the yarn or to the screw where the stems of the glasses were attached.
I think this would make a really cool Christmas gift if you wrapped it up in a cute eyeglass case! Fashionistas and book worms alike would get a kick out of this quirky necklace. And for a buck and change, you can hardly go wrong!
So fun & quirky. As a fellow bookworm – I think it's gr8!!! Jan
Anthropologie really has some fun accessories! Great job 🙂
This is just darling…love Anthro myself, and definitely love to recreate what I can for a fraction of the cost!!
Totally quirky and fun! Love it!
HA! That's fun! And funny! Love it.Kimba

Etihad Airways, PAL form strategic partnership [Khaleej Times (United Arab Emirates)]
(Khaleej Times (United Arab Emirates) Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) The broad scope of the commercial agreement reflected the strength of the relationship between the airlines and the close ties between the UAE and the Philippines.
Etihad Airways and Philippine Airlines (PAL) have formed a comprehensive strategic partnership programme.
The agreement covers codeshare flights, loyalty programmes, airport lounges, joint sales and marketing programmes, a Philippines domestic air pass, cargo, and the coordination of airport operations to provide a better guest experience at their Abu Dhabi and Manila hubs.
Etihad Airways' president and chief executive officer, James Hogan, said the broad scope of the commercial agreement reflected the strength of the relationship between the airlines and the close ties between the UAE and the Philippines.
He said: "This new partnership builds on the success of our original codeshare agreement and reflects the mutual respect, trust and goodwill that have built up over time — not only between the airlines but also between our governments. What is particularly significant about the new commercial arrangements is that our millions of customers are the winners. From a greater choice of passenger and freight codeshare destinations, to reciprocal loyalty program benefits, and more efficient terminal operations — this is a truly customer-centric proposition." Initially, the airline partners will place their respective 'PR' and 'EY' codes on each other's Manila-Abu Dhabi flights to operate a combined total of 19 weekly flights between the two capitals. Etihad Airways will also place its 'EY' code on Philippine Airlines flights from Manila to 20 destinations throughout the Philippines in the first phase, increasing to 28 during 2014.
Members of Philippine Airlines Mabuhay Miles Frequent Flyer Program and Etihad Airways Etihad Guest will enjoy reciprocal loyalty programme benefits including miles earn and redemption, priority check-in and boarding, baggage handling and lounge access across both networks.
During September and October, double miles will be awarded to Etihad Guest members travelling on any Philippine Airlines flight and to Philippine Airlines Mabuhay Miles members travelling on Etihad Airways' flights.
The agreement also extends the use of Etihad Airways' premium lounges in Abu Dhabi and London Heathrow to Philippine Airlines Business Class guests and Mabuhay Miles Million Miler, Premier Elite and Elite members when traveling on Philippine Airlines' Manila-Abu Dhabi and Manila-London Heathrow flights. This comes into effect from August 1 for the Abu Dhabi lounges and November 1 for London Heathrow.
They are also developing a joint air pass scheme which will enable overseas visitors to purchase an international flight to Manila and up to three additional sectors on Philippine Airlines' domestic network. This will enable travellers to visit more of the Philippines and provide a significant boost to the local tourism industry. The air pass is expected to go on sale by September 1, 2014.
Etihad Airways operates two flights daily between Abu Dhabi and Manila using a Boeing 777-300 aircraft with 28 seats in Business Class and 384 in Economy Class.

He called it annoying, made it sound like his girlfriend's clinginess was the height of irritation. Secretly, he loved it. She was tiny, standing at only five-foot-two, and he was starting to get his growth, already close to five-foot-ten, and just starting to fill out, losing the awkwardness of adolescence. Having her cling to him made him feel like he was the center of her world, it made him feel masculine, like the hero he'd always been convinced that he wasn't. If Bro teased him about it, he cited the irony of allowing it, though that was a lie. There was nothing ironic about loving the way they were constantly attached at the hip, about the way the she clung to him fiercely, even in sleep on the occasion that she slept over. There wasn't a trace of irony in the way he held her against his body, reveling in her physical presence, solid and undeniable. Still, he was a human being, so sometimes he woke up in the night because Mother Nature called. It was always a challenge to carefully disentangle himself without waking her, but he somehow always managed and then he would flashstep to the bathroom to take care of business before returning to his room at the same pace, eager to be back in her arms, asleep or not.
Slipping back into bed was the first challenge, coaxing her back into his embrace a second, drawing her close enough to revel in the heat of her body and love the way she fit against him a third. He found her so utterly perfect, and he would lay his cheek against her hair and close his eyes, feeling her heartbeat against his chest while he stroked the back of her neck with lazy fingers. He would roll onto his back, pulling her with him so that she was half on top of him, a sweeter blanket than the one that would have, inevitably at this point, drifted down her back. Not that either of them needed that blanket: the body heat that they shared was more than enough, but the cool air on her back would eventually make her shiver and curl closer to him. Unable to help himself, he would pull the blanket back up to her shoulders, smooth hair away from her eyes to tuck it tenderly behind her ear.
The darkness of his room in the middle of the night allowed him to be softer, more affectionate than he felt he was allowed to be during the daylight hours, free to pamper his girlfriend with little gestures that she would have loved had she been awake. It was a bit tragic that he felt like he couldn't even let her see it, didn't want to seem too soft, but that didn't stop him from indulging himself in the dark, moonlight peeking through the gap between his blackout curtains. The sliver of light mimicked the blade of a sword, cool and bright, and he would take comfort in it as much as her, secure in the knowledge that no one was more eminently suited to protect her from the world than himself. He would vow, silently, to be not just a knight, but her knight. To protect her not just from the world, but from herself too, even if she never saw the extent to which he went to secure that.

Hello folks!
First off, I would like to apologize for my absence from DA this past month. No, I have not fallen off the face of the planet, just on a little hiatus. I hope to get back into the groove soon with some new stuff and catch up on things here.
I've been doing sculpture work for a class and I haven't really had time to draw or digitally paint my own artwork (hence the severe lack of updates). I will upload my sculpture(s) once I have completed them or get my finished ones back from my professor.
Please keep in mind I will probably not log onto DA as often as before until summer vacation hits. Thanks always for your kind support and understanding.
Hello everyone! Thanks for visiting my gallery. Please feel free to leave a comment or two and I will get back to you as soon as possible. Due to heavy workload I receive in art college, I may be a little slow at times replying posts. I will try to respond to my watch list and messages as best as I can.
Again, thanks for visiting!
ขอบคุณมากนะคะที่แวะมาชมผลงาน ต้องขออภัยด้วยถ้าตอบโพสไม่ทันเพราะพิมพ์ภาษาไทยไม่ถนัด จะพยายามตอบโพสให้เร็วที่สุดค่ะ
(see above)
I DON'T RESPOND TO TAGS. As much as I find them amusing at times, I don't participate in answering or sending tags to other deviants. You can send me a tag if you want but please understand that I will not respond to them. I really don't have the time and I am not inclined to answer many of the questions these tags tend to ask.

0 of 1 people found the following review helpfulApril 29, 2013Reviewer: Julie in WashingtonI had high hopes for this cereal but they were dashed after the first bite. Terrible. I should have just taken a cardboard box and shredded it up and added milk and saved myself a few bucks. I love cereal and have a hard time giving it up because of eating low carb. Oh well.This review is specific to Hi-Lo Cereal, Maple Pecan
September 05, 2008Reviewer: A customer in PennsylvaniaBought the Maple Pecan and Vanilla Almond flavors. Tasted the Maple Pecan for the first time today. Tasted like cardboard. No Maple or Pecan flavor at all. I was hoping this would be something I could use as a snack without milk. Milk didn't improve the flavor at all. I can get better flavor and just as much or more protein with Kashi or Special K Protein cereals.

Oh that thou mayest be kept from the evil
that would overwhelm thee; that faithful
to the God of thy mercies, in the life of
righteousness, thou mayest be preserved to
the end.
My soul prays to God for thee that thou
mayest stand in the day of trial, that thy
children may be blest and thy people saved
by his power."

While other colonies were in conflict and in great distress with the Indians, William Penn through his philosophy of social justice and peace, engaged their friendship and goodwill. Here is the site of the great treaty of amity between William Penn and the Indians which was held in November, 1682 for the purpose of establishing a permanent friendship. The treaty is thought to have been held under the great elm tree, which was blown down by heavy winds on Saturday night, March 3, 1810. The leaves on the seal represents the great elm, and the Wampum-belt represents the great treaty of amity.

First time setting up the Qt for VS2010, ran the add-in and VS now shows an item QT in the main project page at the top. Open new project QT form, name, etc, error cant find qmake something check settings.
click on that QT item, options, no QT things are installed, its all blank. click on browse? ok here is the sdk folder. "error, cant find sdk-mingw-bin-qmake.exe". oh. Okay try this folder, no. that folder? no. this other folder? no. ok i know that the nmake.exe is in this folder, how about that? No, this was compiled with MinGW (in red text, to imply its not good enough). ok then what do you want? After over an hour of messing with trying to appease it, no.
I uninstalled the vs2010 add in; ran the updater for the Qt sdk which originally had downloaded 7Gig of "stuff" and it took 20 minutes to download and install some newer stuff. ran the vs2010 file qt-vs addin 1.1.9.exe 57Mb ran fine. try again? same thing.
i had uninstalled the MinGW shell that i had first downloaded, then did the update on the sdk
is there some program that can launch and check the version settings and mend it up? it shouldnt be this difficult; am I missing something? Is there a sequence of installation of one then the other? why does qt run okay, and in VS it shows as an add-in, but doesnt work saying it cant find qmake.exe when i point directly to it???

Spelling of names on nameberry - use of 0, @ etc.
Im just wondering why people write names with numbers etc instead of letters? for example L@nd0n or Ch@rl0tte?

It's so the names don't pop up in google searches. I do it when the name is special and I don't necessarily want to call that person out by name on a website they know nothing about.

Overall Experience
Comfrotable beds and a great staff
April 12, 2016
I've stayed here the past 4 years in the Spring for my grandson's college baseball home games and have never had a problem with a room or any staff member.
The rooms are quiet and the beds are comfortable. The microwave and refrigerator are real plus.
The staff have always accommodated any need I had. I'll miss this hotel since my son is graduating this year.
very peaceful and cozy

we have stayed numerous times at a much pricier 'historic" hotel in Bartlesville, OK., and didn't reach the level of comfort as we did here at Candlewood. Just fix the coffee machine and give us our points please!

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Tri-Met plans to increase security on MAX light rail trains after a stabbing early Sunday near the Rose Quarter in Portland.
The Oregonian reports (http://bit.ly/n33GeZ) it was the third such stabbing this year. Two men were stabbed within days of each other in March on a MAX train and a platform.
The 30-year-old man who was wounded Sunday told police he argued with the woman after she held the train door open, waiting for someone.
Police jailed the 22-year-old woman for assault.

Rather than buy a park hopper ticket for one day can I buy an additional day's ticket and go to two parks on just one day?
Rather than buy a park hopper ticket for one day can I buy an additional day's ticket and go to two parks on just one day?
Yes, but that would be more expensive than a park hopper, I believe?
You can purchase two tickets for use in one day. One for one park and one for another. That is my understanding of the question.
A parkhopper option for one day should work out cheaper.
Now, if the question is can someone buy a two day ticket, and use it on the same day, no. But again, with two separate one day tickets, you can use them however you please for which they are valid.
Yes, that is the point. One method is not allowed and the other is too expensive.
Originally Posted by OconeeDawg, post: 286084
I'm assuming from what you are asking that you already have a 4 or 5 day ticket without the hopper option and you want to buy another ticket so that you can use your current ticket to got to say, Magic Kingdom in the morning and then buy a one day ticket at the gate of say, Animal Kingdom for the afternoon.
If I've got this right, then yes you can You can only buy a single day ticket at the gate of the parks. It will be very expensive to do this though, the cost of single day tickets is Adults: $93.43 and children (3 - 9) $87.14
If you have already bought your tickets, it might be worth seeing how much it is to add the hopper option for the whole ticket. Disney will upgrade unused tickets and you can do this at DTD Guest Services or at the ticket booths at the parks.
If you let me know what you have already then I can have a look at the different prices for you

Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Bringing self-driving vehicle testing to cities like Windsor, Ont. will take a concerted effort from all levels of government, say city officials. Windsor is one of the latest Canadian cities vying to become a site for autonomous vehicle testing.

Presidents of Mountain West Conference schools decided Monday not to expand the nine-team conference at this time.
Presidents of Mountain West Conference schools decided Monday not to expand from nine teams at this time.
Commissioner Craig Thompson said the decision to hold off on expansion is tied to potential shake-ups in some of the nation's bigger conferences. Officials from the Big Ten, Pac-10 and Big 12 are considering adding schools or reorganizing.
Thompson said the Mountain West's decision is not final, and that the board might reconsider once the dust settles in other conferences.
"Due to the uncertainty in the intercollegiate landscape, the board did not make a decision to expand at the present time," Thompson said at the end of the board's annual meeting in Jackson, Wyo. "The Mountain West will continue to monitor developments … and prepare for potential scenarios."

Boise State officials and fans had hoped to join the Mountain West and leave the Western Athletic Conference, which the Broncos have dominated for a decade in football. Moving to the Mountain West could have generated more revenue for the athletic department and given Boise State a clearer path to college football's biggest stage, the Bowl Championship Series.
• Kansas chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little urged her Nebraska counterpart to remain in the Big 12 and help avoid a potential calamity for the Jayhawks.
Gray-Little said she got no indication of what Harvey Perlman might recommend when he meets with Nebraska regents Friday. She said she also planned to call Missouri chancellor Brady J. Deaton with the same message.
Nebraska and Missouri have indicated they might be interested in moving to the Big Ten. If they leave, that might prompt six other Big 12 members, including Texas and Oklahoma, to consider linking with the Pac-10. The death of the Big 12 could leave Kansas, Kansas State and Iowa State out of a major conference.
"There are some universities that survive and thrive without a large athletic program," said Gray-Little. "I hope we don't have to test that out."

Just in time for Lent, the busiest time of the year for seafood consumption, Long John Silver's is imparting a new marketing message revolving around the tagline "We Speak Fish."
To leverage the message, from Feb. 28 through April 24, Long John Silver's will spotlight some of the most popular seafood favorites through its Seafood Feast, featuring batter-dipped pollock, lobster-stuffed crab cakes and butterfly shrimp for $5.99.
Also spotlighted are contemporary hand-prepared entrees that are lower in calories and fat from the Freshside Grille menu, such as Pacific Grilled Salmon, Grilled Tilapia and Shrimp Scampi.
"As one of America's most popular casual seafood restaurants, we are focused on offering our customers delicious, value-priced menu items during Lent and year-round," said John Villanueva, chief marketing officer for Long John Silver's. "We invite everyone to celebrate this season at Long John Silver's to enjoy all their seafood favorites, hand prepared with fresh ingredients every day — simple, easy and affordable."
Long John Silver's is ready to unveil its new visual identity that includes a new logo and the "We Speak Fish" message. Changes have also been made to the company's website and will debut Feb. 14. It will include new merchandising and promotional materials.
"We are proud of Long John Silver's rich history and the progress we have made over the last 40 years," said Villanueva. "We look forward to elevating our menus, restaurants and overall dining experience in order to reach a new generation of seafood lovers."
The reimaging effort comes shortly after Long John Silver's parent company, Louisville, Ky.-based Yum! Brands, announced it was seeking buyers for the brand.
The initiative also ups the ante on the quick-service seafood battle. Rival Captain D's has recently undergone a major rebranding effort as well, including a revamped menu, reimaged stores, a new advertising campaign and an overhaul of management.

Canada tops Slovakia, to face U.S. in Hlinka semifinalsby NHL.com Staff / NHL.com
The Canadian Under-18 select team closed out its preliminary-round schedule in Group B of the 2014 Ivan Hlinka Memorial Cup with an unbeaten record following a 5-1 victory against Slovakia on Wednesday at Zimny Stadion in Piestany, Slovakia.
Canada, the six-time and defending tournament champion, will face the United States in the semifinal round Friday at 9:30 a.m. ET.

The Canadians opened a 2-0 lead in the first period on goals by Ethan Bear (Seattle Thunderbirds, WHL) at 5:20 and Lawson Crouse (Kingston Frontenacs, OHL) at 16:24. Mitchell Marner (London Knights, OHL), Travis Konecny (Ottawa 67's, OHL) and Tyler Soy (Victoria Royals, WHL) also scored in the victory.
Bear, Crouse, Marner and Konecny were all named to NHL Central Scouting's Futures List as top prospects eligible for the 2015 NHL Draft.
Canada has outscored the opposition 15-3 in its three wins. Filip Lestan scored a power-play goal 12:19 into the third for Slovakia, which was outshot 36-13.
Czech Republic 11, Russia 2: Simon Stransky, who plays for the Prince Albert Raiders of the Western Hockey League, scored two of the host team's five goals in the second period en route to the big win in Breclav, Czech Republic.
Stransky also had an assist. Roman Dymacek, Filip Dvorak and Jakub Zboril scored two goals each for the Czech Republic, and Ales Stezka stopped 25 of 27 shots in goal.
Kirill Kaprizov's goal at 8:33 of the first tied the game 1-1, but the Czechs scored the next seven goals, a run that was stopped when Dmitry Zhukenov scored at 6:34 of the third period to make cut the Czech's lead to 8-2.
