How 'bout a stay at the Silversea Resort? Silversea Cruises is launching a here-to-fore never-been-done concept: Personalized Voyages, which is an effort to combine a cruise with a true land-resort experience. Personalized Voyages, available only on Silver Cloud and beginning next year, lets travelers custom-design their trip, doing away with traditional embarkation and disembarkation rigamaroll that requires you to begin or end a cruise at a designated time.
The fine print: there's a minimum stay and that's five nights. There's no maximum stay. Silversea is, for this first test year anyway, limiting the option to about 200 possible starting dates. In 2003, Silver Cloud hits all the high points, itinerary wise, with a cruises to the Caribbean, South America and Europe.
For Silversea itself, the introduction of Personalized Voyages continues to expand that company's range of buying options. In its inaugural era (and beyond), such as the mid-to-late-1990s, Silversea was quite fixed in its standardized cruise fares, which were the industry's most all-inclusive (including airfare, port taxes, liquor, tips, and hotel stays, among other things, save for the usual a'la carte expenses in the casino and spa). But the fares were also, on average, the industry's priciest.
Earlier this year, Silversea made its first departure from its norm by offering Simplicity Pricing, which gives travelers the option to buy the cruise on an a'la carte basis (eschewing airfare and hotel stays, primarily) which brings the price down. Personalized Voyages also operates on a cruise-only basis though the company says it's happy to help book air and hotel upon request and at an additional cost.

Today, Diocesan respect life directors from around the country are gathering for their annual conference.
In their pastoral plan for pro-life activities, the United States Catholic bishops call for the creation of diocesan pro-life committees, whose responsibilities include providing educational opportunities, promoting alternatives to abortion and healing after abortion, promoting pro-life prayers and liturgies, monitoring what the media are saying about abortion, reaching out to other pro-life groups, and communicating with elected officials.
The Church does not want diocesan groups to replace other groups, but rather work productively with them, and also in an ecumenical and interreligious spirit with all who want to end abortion.
I encourage you to get to know your diocesan pro-life committee, and if one does not exist, to help start it.
–Fr. Frank

Bruce Rauner released another ad on Friday in response to the devastating ad produced by the Illinois Freedom PAC that links Rauner to Springfield insider, the federally convicted Stuart Levine.
The ad that runs for thirty-seconds is deliberately and blatantly false.
With Rauner's voice in the background, the ad claims: "You've seen the false attacks from Pat Quinn's allies and the Springfield insiders. The Tribune looked at these charges and dismissed them."
Chicago Tribune did no such thing.
Rauner has yet to conclusively prove his claim, and to say that the Chicago Tribune exonerated him and "dismissed" the Stuart Levine charges doesn't fly.
Why did Stuart Levine get paid $25,000 per month, or $300,000 per years, part of that payment coming from Rauner's GTCR firm? When did Levine start the contract and when did it end. Under what conditions did the contract end?
Was there a buyout? Did Rauner's GTCR firm contribute to the buyout?
Stuart Levine was the ultimate Springfield insider and political fixer, who is now a federal felon, serving 5 1/2 years for money laundering and fraud. Federal district court Judge Amy St. Eve called out Levine for using his seat on the Illinois Health Facilities Planning board to shake down hospitals for kickbacks. And he ran similar swindles as a member of the Teachers Retirement System (TRS) board, a $40 billion dollar fund.
Huffington Post says that while Stuart Levine did not testify at former Governor Rod Blagojevich's trial, former U.S. Attorney Chris Niewoehner gives him substantial credit for evidence that led to the conviction the Blagojevich 14-year corruption conviction. "Mr. Levine was a historic cooperator," Niewoehner said, adding that those he helped convict deserved to be in "a hall of fame of ... corruption."
He is the corrupt Springfield insider who testified against Springfield power broker William Cellini and Antonin "Tony" Rezko. Levine also wore a wire against former Chicago alderman and ultimate political insider "Fast Eddie" Vrdolyak. It was Levine's undercover work in the case that resulted in Vrdolyak's guilty plea that sent this elusive target to jail.
In fact, the Chicago Tribune has yet to see the documentation needed that will exonerate Rauner. Nor has Greg Hinz of Crain's Chicago Business or anyone else for that matter.
But other reporters, including this one, have questioned whether Mr. Rauner really didn't know he was paying Mr. Levine at the same time that Mr. Rauner personally solicited investment work from a huge state pension fund on whose board Mr. Rauner served.
The issue is whether Levine's hiring "predated" GTCR's acquisition something that Rauner claims but cannot or will not document.
Where is the actual hiring contract, which was extended to Levine?
Greg Hinz of Crain's Chicago Business asked Levine that very question in his interview with Rauner, which he published on Jan. 27, 2014, after some ten months of asking questions about Levine and Rauner.
Rauner again claimed he "didn't know Levine" and that GTCR got the work strictly because it produced good returns. "I didn't have 'a relationship' with Levine. I didn't know him," Mr. Rauner told Hinz. "I didn't interact with him. What I've been told is that he was an employee of a company in which we had a minority interest."
Hinz was nearly convinced when Rauner claimed "Mr. Levine's original hiring by the medical firm predates GTCR's acquisition of the company by at least a year."
But . . .
Rauner can't or won't prove it because, unfortunately, "he does not have access to the actual Levine hiring contract, which was extended by a company that no longer exists."
He also told Hinz that he could not "provide a copy of Mr. Levine's departure agreement in 2004 or 2005 — after Mr. Levine was indicted on federal corruption charges — or say whether Mr. Levine received any financial settlement."
The interview was revealing in another sense about an admitted "misstatement" on Rauner's part. Rauner was challenged by his GOP primary rivals in a recent forum to explain his ties to Levine, and Rauner not only said he didn't know of Mr. Levine in 2003, but that GTCR had "worked for the teachers retirement system for 30 years in Illinois."
The implication is that GTCR wouldn't need Mr. Levine to pull strings on the TRS board.
Of course GTCR did need that contract.
Another "misstatement." According to TRS spokesman Dave Urbanek, GTRC got no work from TRS, not one penny, until January 2000, six months before Mr. Levine joined the board. The initial commitment of $52.2 million quickly grew before Mr. Levine resigned from the board in mid-2004.
"That was a misstatement on my part," Rauner told Hinz apologetically. What he "really" meant was GTCR did work for other state pension funds dating back 30 years. However, GTCR didn't have the track record to get the TRS contract in 2000, so it is clear he needed to get a foot in the door.
Was Stuart Levine that 'foot in the door?'
Hinz doesn't come to a conclusion, asking that you decide. He says, "And maybe it's possible that Bruce Rauner didn't know that Stuart Levine was making $300,000 a year from one of Mr. Rauner's firms when Mr. Rauner pitched the TRS board for pension work."
Rich Miller's Capitol Fax piece on Stuart Levine and Bruce Rauner, "Tribune headline: 'Records cast doubt on any strong link between GOP candidate, convicted power broker,'" is also worth reading on this subject. The reader should judge for themselves on this objective evaluation.
Back to the Illinois Freedom PAC ad.
Michael Murray, spokesman for Illinois Freedom PAC, said that Rauner responded so quickly, because it's obvious we "struck a nerve by pointing out his ties to the very Springfield-insiders he likes to rally against."
Murray went on, "Rauner has bragged about his hands on approach to managing his businesses, and claims that experience qualifies him to be governor. Except when it comes to Stuart Levine."
Murray disputes the claims that Rauner had "no idea who one of his highest paid employees was or what he was doing."
Murray questions whether Rauner is lying about the way he "runs his businesses and insider connections with their back room deals?"
Murray ends by saying that "It is clear that middle class families can't trust Bruce Rauner."
All Rauner needs to do is produce the "actual hiring contract" of Stuart Levine. And the termination package of the contract. Surely, GTCR has some record, somewhere of this relationship. There is one man that knows, aside from Bruce Rauner.

College Hockey:No. 9 Clarkson Downs Union, 6-2
Sophomore D'Alvise Nets Two in Win
POTSDAM, N.Y. — It started off as a bizarre night. It ended with Union's home-ice playoff hopes fading away.
Ninth-ranked Clarkson got a fluke goal early in the game, goalie David Leggio stopped a penalty shot and the Dutchmen hung goalie Justin Mrazek out to dry too many times in a 6-2 ECACHL loss Friday at Cheel Arena.
While the victory clinched a first-round ECACHL tournament bye for the second-place Golden Knights (12-4-3 ECACHL, 20-7-4 overall), the 11th-place Dutchmen (6-12-1, 13-15-2) look like they will open the first round of the playoffs on the road. They are four points behind Colgate and Harvard, who are tied for seventh.
With three games left in the season, the Dutchmen need to win their remaining games and hope Colgate and Harvard lose theirs to have a shot at home ice for the fifth straight year. A loss to league-leading St. Lawrence tonight will eliminate the Dutchmen from home ice.
"We've still got three left," defenseman Lane Caffaro said. "If we can take all three, we'll definitely be in there. If we don't play well these last three, we'll probably be on the road, which is fine."
The series of strange events began when referee Alex Dell was set to call an elbowing penalty on Clarkson's Jeremiah Crowe. Dutchmen defenseman Michael Beynon had he puck in the slot was about to head up the ice while Union goalie Justin Mrazek skated to the bench for an extra attacker.
As Beynon tried to maneuver the puck, Chris D'Alvise slashed Beynon's stick. That caused Beynon to backhand the puck into his open net 2:47 into the contest.
"My brain shut down," said Beynon, who, two seasons ago at Cheel, was penalized for shooting the puck after the first period expired, which led to a Clarkson power-play goal.
Union coach Nate Leaman had never seen a play like that before.
"We have to be stronger on our stick," Leaman said. "We have to be responsible for that."
Less than five minutes later, Union forward Jason Walters was pulled down on a breakaway by Max Kolu. Walters was awarded a penalty shot. He tried to beat Leggio with a wrist shot between the pads, but Leggio stopped it.
Shortly after that, Union then killed off a two-man two-minute short-handed situation, but then gave up a power-play goal to South Glens Falls native Shawn Weller with 5:50 left in the first. The Dutchmen got that one back on Matt Cook's power-play tally with 1:59 remaining.
The Dutchmen stood around watching the Knights score goals in the second period. Mrazek couldn't do anything to prevent one-timer goals by Mike Sullivan and Nick Dodge 57 seconds apart early in the period because no Union player helped out.
When D'Alvise scored his second goal of the game with 2:41 left in the second, three Dutchmen had a nice view of D'Alvise skating to the net and depositing a backhander past Mrazek.
David Cayer, who had three assists, converted a two-on-one for the game's final goal late in the third period.
"I felt we lost composure defensively a lot," Leaman said. "A little bit is our youth, but a lot of it playing a good team, [and] they made us pay. They did an excellent job converting on their chances. We had four two-on-ones in the first period, and we didn't convert on one of them. They scored three goals on two-on-ones."
Clarkson coach George Roll was pleased with his offense, but not the defense.
"I thought we very good offensively. I didn't think we were good defensively," Roll said. "I thought the difference in the game is we finished on our chances, and they didn't."

I'm particularly disturbed by the Dean Martin hand puppet. I always thought it was Jack Daniels was controlling his every move; now I know the truth.
Disturbing Auctions is a pallette of the auction absurd.
Here's the site description:
"A lot of people have discovered that they can make a little extra money by auctioning off on the internet those extra knick-knacks they have lying around. After all, as the saying goes, one person's trash is another's treasure.

CableMaster provides a complete product line of thermocouple wire for applications requiring precise temperature measurement such as boilers, furnaces, ovens, heat treating, pharmaceuticals, chemicals and petrochemicals, HVAC, automotive, food processing, appliances, sensors, and more.
CableMaster can quickly provide custom manufactured thermocouple wire designed to meet the most demanding design specifications and applications.
A thermocouple is a junction between two different metals that produces a voltage related to a temperature difference. Thermocouples are a widely used type of temperature sensor for measurement and control and can also be used to convert heat into electric power.
Thermocouple wire is available in several different metallurgical formulations per type, typically, in decreasing levels of accuracy and cost: special limits of error, standard, and extension grades.
Extension Wire
Extension grade wires made of the same metals, as a higher-grade thermocouple, are used to connect it to a measuring instrument some distance away, without introducing additional junctions between dissimilar materials that would generate unwanted voltages.
K Type Thermocouple
Type K (chromel-alumel) is the most common general purpose thermocouple. It is inexpensive and works in the -200C to +1350C range. One of the constituent metals, nickel, is magnetic; a characteristic of thermocouples made with magnetic material that undergo a step change in output when the magnetic material reaches its Curie point (appx 354C for type K thermocouples)
E Type Thermocouple
Type E (chromel – constantan) has a high output that makes it well suited to cryogenic use. Additionally, it is non-magnetic.
J Type Thermocouple
Type J (iron-constantan) has a more restricted range than type K (-40C to +750C). The Curie point of the iron (770C) causes an abrupt change in the characteristic that determines the upper temperature limit. Type J, like Type K, contains a magnetic metal iron.
Type R/S Thermocouple
Type R thermocouples use a platinum-rhodium alloy containing 13% rhodium for one conductor and pure platinum for the other conductor. Type R thermocouples are used up to 1600C, and type S is used as the standard of calibration for the melting point of gold (1064.43C) CableMaster currently only provides extension grade Type R thermocouples consisting of a positive (+) Copper leg and a negative(-) Copper Alloy (Alloy 11) leg.
Type T Thermocouple
Type T copper-constantan thermocouples are suited for measurements in the -200C to 350C range. They are often used as a differential measurement since only copper wire touches the probes. Both conductors are non-magnetic, and accordingly, there is no Curie point and not abrupt change in characteristics.
Each type of thermocouple cable listed above is available with different types of insulation and jacketing materials depending on the application of use. There is additional over braids that may be added to provide additional insulation from heat. These cables can also be customized in multi conductor and multi-pair configurations with and without shields.

Presenters in the areas of math, science and healthy lifestyle/nutrition are being sought for the Girls+Math+Science=Opportunities (GMSO) event for middle school aged girls to be held on Nov. 3 at the Moraine Park Technical College campus in Fond du Lac.
The conference goals are to increase the awareness of careers in math and science, highlight how interests and abilities match the skills needed in these fields, and present women in math and science fields as role models.
The GMSO committee is seeking area educators and professionals to present 60-minute hands-on sessions, one to three times during the day-long conference. The sessions can be the same, as each will have a different group of girls in attendance.
Proposals from professionals in the areas of manufacturing, architecture, banking and accounting are especially encouraged.
Now in its third year, the 2007 GMSO conference is again expected to attract over 200 middle school girls from surrounding communities. The 2006 program had 216 participants and of those responding to a survey, 91% indicated they would recommend this conference to a friend.
Founding sponsors for the GMSO program are Agnesian HealthCare, Moraine Park Technical College and UW-Fond du Lac.
Proposals should be submitted by July 13. Presenters will be compensated and will have access to a budget for needed supplies.
For more information or to request proposal guidelines, contact Leanne Doyle, UW-Fond du Lac continuing education director at (920) 929-3622 or email@example.com.

The Federal Reserve: When Doves Bribe
Duncan Parker
Yesterday's announcement was an admission by the Fed that it has missed the ideal time to withdraw stimulus from the American economy. Or was that the plan?
No man is so foolish but he may sometimes give another good counsel, and no man so wise that he may not easily err if he takes no other counsel than his own. He that is taught only by himself has a fool for a master.
-- Hunter S. Thompson
The 24 hours leading up to the Federal Open Market Committee's (FOMC) press conference yesterday -- after which investors would learn about the Fed's plans regarding the much anticipated taper of asset purchases -- were full of nervous anticipation. The
Dow Jones Industrial Average
(INDEXNASDAQ:.IXIC), and
Russell 2000
(INDEXRUSSELL:RUT) equity indices mostly started off the session with small gains before slipping ever so slightly into the red early on. The US Treasury complex -- including the
CBOE Interest Rate 10-Year Treasury Note
Treasury Yield 30 Years
(INDEXCBOE:TYX), i
Barclays 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF
(NYSEARCA:TLT), and
ProShares UltraShort 20+ Year Treasury ETF
(NYSEARCA:TBT) -- also moved toward small losses while yields rose ahead of what was anticipated to be the unofficial beginning of a Federal Reserve "tightening" policy. ("Tightening" is slang used by market participants to describe the effect of reducing the lending of bank assets by making borrowing money less attractive through the increase of interest rates.)
(NYSEARCA:GLD) and
(NYSEARCA:SLV) told the story first and loudest as the "No Taper" headlines bewildered all who bothered to pay attention. These dollar-denominated commodities soared higher in the minutes before and following the announcement, raising concerns that foul play was afoot yet again via information leaked to certain traders ahead of the official dispatch. In the minutes following the announcement, there were few victory laps celebrated by those brazen enough to remain positioned for higher highs on a day trading basis, nor did we see overwhelming disdain from those who had anticipated lower prices after the size of the taper had been announced.
During a moment frozen in time, all market participants collectively agreed: This was the first "WTF?" moment we've had from the Fed in a very long time, and it came at a point in time when the Fed's credibility had never been more sterling.
Soon investors began searching for answers. Why would the Fed do this? Was this a power play? Had Ben Bernanke's god complex gone rogue? Did the Fed ever really intend to taper? The markets are perched handsomely above all-time highs and Bernanke still wants to push this unequivocal bubble
It's difficult to view the Fed's actions yesterday without acknowledging the arrogance it displayed. The Fed practices great care in crafting its messages. Perhaps the loudest message yesterday was conveyed through its actions rather than its words. Is it possible the Fed is every bit as unaware of its actions today as it was five years ago this week, when the financial crisis began?
Bernanke's cute little trick, an attempt to right the wagging of the dog, couldn't have come at a worse time for his legacy; he may have just revealed that his current coordinates rest at the pinnacle of the
greater fool theory
. Or maybe, just maybe, he really is that far ahead of the rest of us.
Bullish or bearish, few doubt that we are now in another large stock market bubble. Trend followers follow trends -- surely not all of them could believe that the economic and market fundamentals support such desperate measures by the controllers of the world's reserve currency. Certainly the FOMC couldn't believe this. Perhaps the best warning of our fate has been broadcast over the last several months by China, a country with no responsibility in reporting factual information regarding the financial health of its empire.
It wasn't long ago at all -- in fact, it was just a few months -- when "China shadow banking" was a trending topic on Twitter. The shadow banking industry is most often presented to the American public as the purveyors of payday loan schemes, offering cash to the strapped working class at interest rates that soar into the hundreds of percent per annum. In reality, shadow banking is everything from margin debt to installment payments on your pet's vet bill. Counterintuitively, if the Fed were to taper or increase interest rates, a new dilemma could form: The velocity of money (how many times currency changes hands) could actually increase dramatically.
If you've refinanced a mortgage in the last five years, you're well aware of the increase in documentation required and likely even more aware of how long, painful, and arduous the process can be. When interest rates are low, there's little incentive for banks to take any long-term risk onto their books purely for reasons of profitability and risk reward. As interest rates increase, lending standards quickly fall away as the likely rewards of lending become more advantageous through lens of probability and profitability. Of course, there's a ceiling where interest rates eventually do choke out lending and thereby shadow lending, but it's a long way away from ZIRP.
The other way to keep shadow banking at bay is by keeping interest rates so low that banks do not stimulate the velocity of money through reduced lending standards by refusing to loan money to anyone other than the most highly qualified -- the smallest subset of our economy, the ones who don't "need" the money loaned to them, but understand that using other people's money makes sense so long as it is free. If the velocity of money were to rapidly increase, the Fed would be forced to ratchet its tightening up faster and faster, stimulating hyperinflation, and impairing the Treasury's ability to issue new debt as needed for liquidity purposes (at a manageable debt service.) Meanwhile, our banks' sovereign bond holdings will inevitably plummet in value just in time for increased Basel III capital cushions, thereby causing member bank failures and noncompliance with the international secret banking cartel. (Yes, that last part is a joke; just making sure you're paying attention.)
Yesterday's decision not to taper was an admission by the Fed of poor timing. It missed the ideal window to withdraw stimulus from the American economy; it overshot. Or possibly, that was the plan. Market players are aware that the withdrawal of stimulus would likely cause another 2008-like collapse in the financial markets. Therefore, the Fed has no choice but to keep stimulus in place by means of endless liquidity while stimulating asset bubbles to the point of engineering a collapse and hoping the liquidity will exist at that time to keep the entire world financial system from going down in stride. Once on the other side of the next collapse, the Fed will have another chance to time the withdrawal of stimulus and measure the inflationary pressures of the current policies. It will also have given the rest of the world the opportunity to adjust their own fiat liquidity noose accordingly.
Or not. After all, this is an experiment.

Plant Biology
Common Mistakes
Alternation of GenerationsSpores and sporophytes vs gametes and gametophytes: all these concepts can be confusing. Luckily, we at Shmoop have vast stores of wisdom to aid our dear readers. Two things to remember:
1. The words ending in "phyte" are plants.
2. The reproductive units plants make can be found at the beginning of the word.
Rather than trying to remember that spores grow into gametophytes and gametes fuse and grow into sporophytes, remember that sporophytes make spores and gametophytes make gametes. Since you know the life cycle is a cycle, and what goes around comes around, it follows that spores grow into gametophytes. Spores can't grow into sporophytes because that's where they came from.
Primary and Secondary GrowthShoots vs. roots:
Shoots are the aboveground parts of the plant (except for rhizomes) and are made up of stems and leaves. Flowers and fruits are also part of the shoot system.
Roots are the defined as the part of the plant that take in water and nutrients and supporting the plant. They are usually belowground, though they don't have to be belowground. Notable aboveground roots are found in mangroves and epiphytic orchids.
- An apical meristem is an area where new extension growth originates, and both the root and shoot systems have apical meristems.
- There can be more than one shoot apical meristem per plant. In fact, there are as many shoot apical meristems as there are stems and branches. The same is true of root apical meristems.
- A lateral meristem is where new growth originates that adds to the plant's width, also known as secondary growth.
Secondary xylem forms on the inside of the vascular cambium, so as the plant gets wider, the vascular cambium gets further and further away from the center of the plant. Secondary phloem forms on the outside of the vascular cambium, but can eventually be sloughed off.
Plant TissuesGround tissue doesn't have to be in the ground; it is just the name for tissues that are not vascular or dermal.
All the cell types ending in –chyma can be daunting, but there are only three of them. Parenchyma is the most common and the most versatile; collenchyma and sclerenchyma are mostly used in support.
Transportaion in the PlantWater moves from high concentrations to lower concentrations. But what does it mean for water to be in a high concentration? That means there is a lot of water compared to other molecules, such as solutes that may be dissolved in the water. When you eat a lot of salty potato chips, you might feel your mouth drying out and have a nice long drink of water. When you do this, you are moving water from a region of high concentration (your glass or water bottle) to a region of low concentration (your salty mouth). Keep in mind though, that in this case the water isn't actually diffusing across a membrane; instead, you are actively moving it from glass to mouth.
Negative numbers for water potential can be confusing. Just remember that if a negative sign is in front of a number, it is just as far away from zero as the positive version of that number. -10 is less than -1, and -1 is less than 3.
Leaf StructureStomata aren't cells. They are pores, or holes, in the leaf surface. However, they are always accompanied by two guard cells, which regulate their opening and closure.
Plant ReproductionThe female parts are called carpels, and are made up of SOSO: style, ovaries, stigma and ovules. The male parts are called stamens and is made up of AF: anthers and filaments.
What is a fruit and what is a vegetable? We just told you that fruits develop on plants and protect seeds, but what about cucumbers, tomatoes, and eggplants? The food pyramid says we should eat fruits and vegetables, but botanically speaking, the things we call vegetables are actually fruits (if you look inside, you'll find seeds in them). For our purposes here, there is no such thing as a vegetable. Try using that line at the dinner table. There is, however, vegetative tissue, which is any part of the plant that doesn't contribute to reproduction.
Germination and DevelopmentHypocotyl vs. epicotyl: the key to keeping these straight is breaking the words down. "Cotyl" refers to the cotyledons. "Hypo" means below, so the hypocotyl is the region of the stem below the cotyledons. "Epi" means above, so the epicotyl is the region of the stem above the cotyledons.
PhotoperiodismThe dark period has an important influence on flowering, but the influence is different for short day plants and long day plants. Dark periods promote flowering in short day plants, but inhibit flowering in long day plants. A good way to keep this straight is to remember that short day plants need short days and long day plants need long days. But that's just the definition of those names, right? Since each "day" takes place in a 24-hour period, the time that doesn't have daylight is dark. So short days have long nights, which is exactly what short-day plants need; long days have short nights, which is exactly what long day plants need.
Plant HormonesAuxin, cytokinins, gibberellins and ethylene are all involved in growth. Abscisic acid is the odd man out, because it inhibits growth.
Abscisic acid (ABA) has a name that implicates it in the abscission of leaves and fruits. However, ABA is much more important in dormancy and drought stress than it is in abscission—don't let the name fool you.
Even though Charles and Francis Darwin's experiment led to the discovery of auxin, don't forget that Charles Darwin is most famous for his theory of evolution by natural selection.

Will More New Jersey Students Eat Breakfast in Class? [AUDIO]
The idea is to get more New Jersey schools participating in the federally-funded school breakfast program. A new study finds that serving the meal in the classroom after the morning bell could be the answer.
About 300 school districts across the state participated in the survey and while 88 percent admit they offer breakfast, 68 percent offer it before the school day begins.
"We're happy that more schools are offering breakfast, but the problem that we're finding is that you have kids who come in the building at different times, they have different schedules and they're not all around the same location at the same time in the morning. So, while you have a school offering breakfast, you don't have any kids around to eat it," said Cecelia Zalkind, executive director of Advocates for Children of New Jersey, which is spear-heading the New Jersey Food for Thought School Breakfast Campaign. "Those districts that are really committed to breakfast have explored other, more creative alternatives. 38 percent began serving breakfast after the morning bell and so far, it's been very successful."
"The districts that fed children in the classroom reported fewer visits to the school nurse, less disruptive behavior in the classroom and kids were better able to concentrate," said Zalkind. "They saw the value immediately and over the long term, that leads to academic success. A kid who can concentrate on what's happening in class has a better chance of being successful."
New Jersey ranks 48th in the nation for its participation in the federally-funded school breakfast program, with about 28 percent of eligible children participating. The campaign is looking to bring that participation up to at least 30 percent by next year.

Vicky Lozano also teamed up with Artemiy Nikitin to claim the mixed doubles championship, beating Vandal pairings of Barcenilla and Andrew Zedde in the second round and Abid Akbar and Sophie Vickers in the finals. Zedde won the men's open singles draw while fellow Vandal Sam Laudon advanced to the semifinals.
"It was great to see that a number of our players chose to play this open event and their results," Idaho Director of Tennis Jeff Beaman said. "It gave them a chance to get back some of the competitive focus and to build confidence going into the first official events this fall."
The Vandal men begin their fall schedule Sept. 20-22 at the Baylor Invitational in Waco, Texas, and the women begin the same weekend at the Boise State Invite in Boise, Idaho.

This product really works for weight loss. I have dropped a dress size in a week since taking this! At first I did feel bloated for a couple of days and thought the product wasn't working but persistence pays - it must have been part of the detox and cleansing process. The enzymes work by not only breaking down the excess fat in the body, but because you assimilate more nutrients due to the enzymes breaking down the food more effectively, you feel less hungry and eat less. Also helps detoxify the liver. Will definitely purchase again.
Digest fats better. My sister takes with and in between meals. Has helped her lose 60 pounds so far. She takes Digest Gold as well. These are the best enzymes I've found so far, and I've tried many. Go ahead and spend the money for the best-won't take as many pills to do the job.

Immune system didn't like it
Posted by Health-Is-Wealth on Nov 30, 2013
My immune system doesn't like any of the Enzymedica products, including this one. However - of the four or five products I've tried, this affected me least negatively and I did find benefit from it at first. I might look at it again in future, though it's expensive. I like that it has no fillers. If this review was helpful to you, please click YES below - thank you. For reviews of all the products I have purchased from iHerb, please click my username above

Walesa Gives Romney Strong Endorsement
Poland's legendary dissident, Lech Walesa, can't vote in the U.S. presidential elections but he has nevertheless decided to let his preference be known. He gave a strong endorsement to Mitt Romney, the presumptive Republican contender and declared disappointment with President Barack Obama's record.
Mr. Romney "talks about values" and "I'm very happy about it," Mr. Walesa said after meeting Mr. Romney on Monday. Mr. Obama, on the other hand, failed to deliver on his promises of "reform," Mr. Walesa said without elaborating.
Credited with a prominent role in toppling communism in the Soviet-controlled Poland, Mr. Walesa won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1983. When the U.S. president won the award in 2009 for his contribution to world peace, shortly after being sworn in, the Polish leader didn't hide his amazement. "Well, there's hasn't been any contribution to peace yet. He's proposing things, he's initiating things, but he is yet to deliver," he said at the time.
"He simply doesn't suit me," Mr. Walesa also said previously about Mr. Obama. He refused to see the U.S. president during a visit to Poland last year, saying he had other plans arranged earlier.
Mr. Romney has work to do and charisma is something he "doesn't really yet have," Mr. Walesa said. Still, he's "very observant, he gets it fast and draws conclusions."
"He really intends to put the U.S. in the leadership position, he's into problem-solving, so I have great hopes that his ideas, his experiences and his intentions will allow us to live in a safer, more prosperous world," Mr. Walesa said.
As Mr. Romney was leaving the city council in Gdansk, northern Poland, on Monday, some in the crowd chanted "Obama, Obama." The sitting U.S. president had the approval rating of 65% in Poland in September 2011, according to a Transatlantic Trends study from the German Marshall Fund of the U.S., the latest poll available. This was visibly below the average of 75% in 12 European Union countries, and much below the approval rating of 81% in Germany, Poland's neighbor to the west.
President Obama's most controversial decision that pertained to Poland has been the abandonment of the George W. Bush-era missile defense program. Mr. Obama in 2009 scrapped the plan, under which Poland had agreed to host a base near its border with the Russian exclave of Kaliningrad. Poland's declared participation irked Russia, which threatened to direct missiles at the country.
Mr. Obama broke the news to Poland on Sept. 17, 2009, a date thought particularly unfortunate. The Soviet Union attacked Poland exactly 70 years earlier, executing a secret agreement with Nazi Germany in the first weeks of World War II. This revived concerns in Poland about the seriousness of the U.S. commitment to defend its NATO allies, particularly those who were behind the Iron Curtain during the Cold War.
The U.S. later proposed a new system envisioning 24 interceptors in Poland at the same location.

I spent a 100% of my career managing and making decisions for AECO organizations as a Technology/BIM/CAD Leader. I am excited to see the day that Autodesk University hosts a Design Technology Management Summit at Autodesk University 2010 I am in particular privileged to be part of the team that put this summit together and one of the judges that will be assessing the fun festivities of the day.
Well from the front line of the DTMC @ Autodesk University, I will get back to the fun now and shortly after report on the day. During the DTMC I will be hosting two sessions:
1) BIM & Business Development
2) What do we need from our Autodesk resellers?
Just remember if you are on your to this nice room, this event about Technology Leaders sharing ideas, discussing and challenging one-another as like-minded people.
For now, enjoy and we will see you shortly!
Autodesk University 2010 is fast approaching in Las Vegas. I am having the privilege yet again to be a speaker this year. My role at AU is always focused on the Business and Process sides of Building Information Modeling (BIM). This year, I will have a nice combination of Virtual, Lecture and UnConference sessions. My schedule is reflected below. Feel free to reach-out with any questions:
BO332-1V: BIM In Your Organization
DT128-3U: BIM and Business Development
DT131-3U: What Do We Need from Resellers?
CM344-1V: From CAD Managers to Leaders
BO422-1: Responding to the BIM RFP
I am working on my AU2010 class: Responding to the BIM RFP.
From my perspective, this is a growing challenge, as we move forward with BIM in a very economical challenging time. Our focus has been on the technology and maybe processes, however, very little done on the marketing and business development side.
Your assistance with this survey will be very much appreciated.

Accessibility and Practicality
Bosny spray cans are easily accessible. Hardware stores all around carry them, and they are rather cheap for one-off paint projects. They are handy, as such, you can't really run out of it if you have enough stocks on-hand, so you won't have to leave a project hanging. Of course a little planning is always involved in the process even with AB painting, making sure you have enough stock of whichever color of whichever paint of whichever process one utilizes so that one does not run out of paint or material midway during a build.
Provided you source out the cheapest, to which, this is no big secret, I buy mostly "in bulk" at Pasilio 1C 168 Mall at Divisoria, cans are relatively economical, though someone did point out earlier with the number of cans I've already used, I could have gotten an AB. He of course is correct with regards to the economics. As I mentioned, I did get an AB eventually (two ABs, in fact, I have gotten one earlier as a freebie), but, as of this writing and as I have mentioned previously, I haven't even broken-in those two and the compressor.
For me, the practical advantage of using cans is the convenience; even if I run out, I can simply run to the nearest hardware store which is actually just walking distance (see what I did there) to get a fresh can or two of the color I need (provided of course, it didn't happen at night). But, I've been using cans well long enough to know if I'll run out or not. I can easily estimate how many cans I'll be using for a project, assessing the amount BEFORE I even start painting. More so, I've started stocking up on the colors I frequently use, specifically the grey primer, Honda Red, Nickel, flat white and flat black, since I essentially use them all the time.
Too Close, Too Thick for Comfort
A lot of people mistake that paint in cans are too thick, especially with industrial ones like Bosny. They are partially right, because these paint cans are really made for use on cars and large surfaces, as such, they are designed to accumulate more readily, coat quickly and dry quickly. On my first attempts at painting with cans, I've screwed up several times. The most common mistake is spraying too close and overspraying.
Bosny Metallic Red tends to be too thick
especially when sprayed too close
Also, Bosny cans are not equally thick across the board. Some are actually rather thin, like Primer Grey and Flat Black, and do take a few passes to get enough coverage. The above photo shows my first experiment on painting with Bosny Flat Black, Gold 351 and Metallic Red, all sprayed too close. You can see how thick the paint is on the edges, even with Bosny surprisingly having a self-leveling property.
Bosny is quick drying, provided certain conditions are met. Spraying too close leaves the underlying layer of paint wet and uncured for hours, and with varying humidity, the difference of dryness between layers can cause that nasty surface "curl" effect when the upper coat dries faster than the lower one.
The Distance Between Us
The standard distance I've been using was 6 inches, but through the months I've been experimenting, I've determined that the best distance is actually around 12 inches from the surface, in quick bursts, effectively misting the paint. Misting keeps the paint particles small, and it allows the paint to dry halfway and fully as it lands on the surface.
My first attempt with the MatX Multitone/Color Change/Gradient,
which back then, no one really attempted with cans. This is achieved
with Flat Black, then Gold 351 and Honda Red 67
sprayed at opposite angles to create the gradient effect
I've stopped using Bosny Metallic Red (along with Metallic Blue and Metallic Black) back then because even with dry conditions and considerable spray distance it still tends to be too thick. The Bosny Metallics are also opaque, so it was pretty useless having laid down a layer of gold before it, which also contributed to thickness.
So far, I've found that Bosny Gold, Silver, Aluminum, Aluminum Silver and Metallic Silver are good buffer paints for clear and candy tones. With misting, they can cover a part without obscuring the details. The photos above and below show my first attempts with the buffer/candy tone technique, and discovered quite by accident that spraying at opposite angles could create a somewhat color change depending on the angle to which the light hits the painted part, which is actually more of a gradient.
Though I've seen gradients done quite easily done with AB, I haven't seen anyone else do this with cans on small parts back then.
The Myth Behind the Mist
There is no singular technique in achieving a great paint job with cans, but, the best technique so far, at least for me, is misting. The main issue people have with it is paint wastage; misting does require one to spray at a more significant distance, and the farther you spray, the larger the spray diameter. So people will always tend to spray closer to economize on paint, without realizing that that method is actually more unpredictable, especially since cans do lose pressure as the paint is expended. The result; overspray and uneven coats.
Misting allows one to gauge where and how the paint lands on a certain surface, and not all surfaces get painted the same way. People also make the mistake of keeping the can stationary while depressing the nozzle. Both the part and can must be moving constantly in opposite directions, with curved parts rotated as the paint is misted to give it more coverage. Misting keeps the paint particles small, and as I have mentioned early, dry quickly as it lands on the surface.
With misting, I've been able to avoid overspray and achieve a paint layer close to that of an AB (of course, I wouldn't want to argue with any AB user that it's the same, hence "close"). The above shows several coats of Flat Black, Nickel Chrome and Honda Red 67 (which takes a LOT of passes to achieve a full coat), and as you can see, the surface details remain clear even after the Flat Clear (which creates the muted metallic/red titanium effect).
Compare that to a relatively <simpler> Titanium White (Flat White, Pearl White, Flat Clear)
It's also worthwhile to note that Don Suratos aka DC23, won his first BAKUC Worlwide Championship with a split-color Kampfer painted with Bosny. He was actually the one who inspired me to paint with cans...

Not like when I was a kid and could walk into a Western Auto and buy a milsurp rifle and a box of ammo without so much as a raised eyebrow. Since then the Government has been nipping away at our Second Amendment little by little so no one notices (or objects). Buy several arms and lots of ammo and set aside some to cache and stash for the future. We have seen others throughout history who were told "we won't take away your guns" only to have them "registered" and later confiscated. (ie. Armenians, Russians, Ukrainians, Jews, Gypsies, Cambodians, Guatamalans, Salvadoranians, Mexicans, etc.).

It is easy to forget that plants are living, breathing, eating organisms which require a great deal of attention and energy. Sadly, this seemingly harmless disconnect causes us to neglect our beloved plants -- often to the point of no return.
So, we have two options to remedy this problem. We could either (a) form a practice of seeing the "oneness" in everything in which case the plant is a true extension of ourselves or (b) we can get a breathing pot.
Put your credit card away -- this is just a prototype. However, the design concept is as such that the pot expands and contracts simulating breathing. If the breathing stops, you better give that plant some water and place it in the sunlight.

We've never really seen a need for a jar opener since we've got a boyfriend, but the other day we were struck with a wicked pickle craving (no, not that kind of wicked pickle) and he was nowhere to be found. We tried everything - running the jar under cold water, banging the lid on the counter, using our massive muscles - to no avail. You better believer we're picking up one of these Silicone Penguin Jar Openers ($2) for future cravings. Cute, cheap and oh-so-useful.

Is it too early to start shopping for back-to-school supplies? If you want to get the best prices, the answer is no. Although summer isn't finished and your kids might still be enjoying the lazy days of summer, it isn't too early to plan for the money involved with going back-to-school.
Here are some of the easiest ways that you can save money on back-to-school supplies while it's still summertime.
Plan early for back-to-school
Just like cramming for a test isn't the best way to prepare for an exam, waiting until the last minute isn't the best way to score great deals on back-to-school supplies. This is the time to plan for all the supplies your child will need for the entire year. At no other time will prices be so low, so if you're on a tight budget, it's the time to stock up on anything your child will need, whether it's notebooks, pens, ink cartridges or colored pencils.
Shop with a plan
Have you asked for a list of back-to-school supplies from your child's school? If not, you'll have a general idea of what your child needs, but you may be making some assumptions. For example, if your child is taking Algebra, you may think that any calculator will be fine when in reality, a very specific model is needed. If your child is in elementary school, your child may need glue sticks instead of liquid glue. Knowing what's required will save you time and the inconvenience of making returns for unneeded items.
School clothes: to shop or not to shop?
Back-to-school ads will include clothing and shoes, but pause to consider what your child truly needs for the transition of summer to fall. Some of the clothing worn during summer, along with a few purchases, may be enough for this time. Consider what your child will really need before purchasing his or her new wardrobe.

UPS down Project 365(3) Day 2111
UPS down Project 365(3) Day 211
Image by Keith Williamson
I am thinking of renaming this album, "El Willo's problem page because a number of the recent photos seem to have been about issues I have had to deal with.
Problem No xxx.
When the UPS that I brought from England would no longer hold its charge, I bought this one from Carrefour. Without any kind of control software, I had no idea how long it would run my computer for or whether it would shut it down gracefully so I replaced it with an APC Smart UPS. This one was then consigned to keeping my internet connection going during one of our frequent power cuts.
When we had the new air conditioning installed this was disconnected but not switched off so It ran for about ten minutes or so, signalling as it went along. Eventually the battery died and peace was restored.
Since then it has signalled faults intermittently – not a problem unless it decided to do that in the middle of the night. Lo and behold, on Tuesday it started making its merry little beeping noises at about 11pm so, rather than run the risk of being kept awake all night, I disconnected it.
Now, I suppose, I have to dispose of it in an environmentally friendly way

Pam and I seem to be going though one of those periods that you have when a number of challenges loom up to face you.
First it was the battery on the car that died, then I had problems with the installation of programs on my new computer, I had a hair on the sensor of my best camera, one of my UPS expired, the fence at the back was making its way into the garden below and finally (I hope) the new air conditioning unit stopped blowing cold air.
This air conditioning unit worked fine when it was first installed. The air in the room was nicely chilled and it was taking out a decent quantity of water each day. Then gradually it chilled less and less and the room still felt muggy an hour or so after the unit was switched on.
Nothing else for it, call the shop and get someone out to look at it so that is what we did yesterday. This morning, first thing, the technicians arrived and confirmed my suspicions that somehow all the gas had escaped from inside. After taking this outside unit off the wall, it was an easy job to locate the gas joint that was leaking, correct that, fill the unit back up with gas, and check that all was well with a manometer.
Result, the unit is working 100% again, the air is nicely chilled and the water bottle outside was half full after just two hours of operation.
Now back to that garden fence!
