Degree: Natural Resources and Environmental Studies
Dissertation Title: The Role of Red-backed Salamanders in Ecosystems
Advisor: Dr. Kim Babbitt
Description of Research
My broad research interests are in the ecology and conservation of amphibians and reptiles. My current research focus is on the role of terrestrial, woodland salamanders in ecosystem functions. Terrestrial salamanders of the genus Plethodon can be incredibly abundant in forest ecosystems. In many eastern US forests they are the most abundant vertebrate and can makeup twice the biomass of all the breeding forest birds. As abundant predators of forest floor invertebrates salamanders have the potential to affect ecosystem processes through alteration of the detrital food web and through direct nutrient cycling. I am specifically testing how the removal of salamanders from forest plots affects nitrogen mineralization rates, leaf litter decomposition rates, and oak seedling growth and survival. Additionally, I am examining how salamanders affect other top detrial predators including spiders, centipedes, and carabid beetles. These intraguild predators are likely competing for resources and their roles in the food web and ecosystem may be altered in the absence of salamanders.

COLOR-BLOCKING at Bottega VenetaTrends are such a double - edged sword !
You want to know what's going on; what's the next, new thing. But, you don't want to get so caught up that you lose all sense of originality. That said, I'm just back from Paris, and here's what people are wearing...
RED at PradaThe biggest everywhere /over - and - over trend is the
all - black + 1 small shot of red (clothing or accessory).
It was everywhere.
One day I walked behind two women each wearing head-to-toe black, yet each carried a bright red bag.
RED at HermèsIt wasn't as simple as wearing an all-black outfit plus a red coat
....and head-to-toe black means opaque-black tights if you're wearing a skirt or dress. That said, one of the better ones of these I saw was all black plus bright orange-red hose/tights. The brighter-more-orangey the red the better.
FUCHSIA at Kenzo
That said, I saw the same trend on three people (within about one minute, one day, while waiting to cross the street near La Madeleine) where a tiny bit of fuchsia was worn in place of red.
What else was big ? Puffy jackets !
Every woman, man and child had one on. That might be okay, but it was also the case in 2010, there were just a ton more this time. You'd think Parisians would have come up with something newer and better in two years.
Quite a few did seem to have changed over to the traditional pea coats. These were almost always double-breasted, with gold buttons. Another big coat trend was toggle-closures on the front. Tons of those.
, as usual, but this time they were all sans-heel. Maybe 1" or less, but really no more than that. Other shoes -- lots of little oxfords. I'm really kicking myself now for not having picked up the ones I loved at Robert Clergerie. Additionally, Mary Janes are still big, as are tons of bows on shoes....tons!! And there are still a fair number of wedges and super-thick heels.
Even more confounding than the endless parade of puffy jackets (for lack of better description, we used to call them down vests from LL Bean; these have sleeves.) is the even longer-lasting trend of the pashmina-type scarf. This is another every-man-woman-child-type of trend. It seemed to have reached its peak a couple of years ago....but, nope, they're still everywhere!
NEUTRALS on NEUTRALS at Curling, rue Saint-Sulpice
When will the good old silk carré make a come back?! Sadly, no one under 60 (no agism here) seems to be wearing anything but the pashmina-type of scarf, and the gauzier the better! That "BOBO/bourgeois-bohemian" trend is pretty die-hard! Garance Doré was recently photographed in a pale gray silk one of these; she also appears to love her Robert Clergerie -glitter- shoes. Garance is France's go-to girl-of-the-moment, famous in particular for working alongside Sartorialist-founder, Scott Schuman.
GRAY on GRAY at at Le Prince du Sud, Ave Daumesnil
A few grays were paired with brighter shades.
at Hermès (above) and Phynès (below)
Below, paired neons at Carven, rue Saint-Sulpice (left)
and Antoine et Lili, rue de Seine (right)
So, take it with a grain of salt and wear what makes you happy!

Dallas St. Patrick's Day Parade security will see two small changes after SXSW, Boston Marathon bombings
A pair of tragedies in other cities will mean two small security changes to Saturday's St. Patrick's Day Parade, a Dallas deputy police chief said Friday.
But Gary Tittle, who oversees the central patrol division, stressed that little is changing because of an allegedly drunk driver's early Thursday rampage through into a crowd at the South by Southwest festival in Austin.
"We are quite comfortable in what we have done in years past," Tittle said. "And as we have looked at our event plan and the preparation we've put into it over the years, we are quite comfortable with where we stand, and significant changes have not been made as a result of the tragic event in Austin."
Still, Tittle said police will post two large barricades a distance away from the crowds in light of the Austin events. One barricade will be placed at McCommas Boulevard and Greenville Avenue; the other will be at Greenville and Belmont Avenues.
The 2013 Boston Marathon bombings have also led Dallas police to ban backpacks at this year's parade. Authorities say the Boston bombers sneaked in pressure cooker explosives in backpacks.
Other previously prohibited items — such as strollers, coolers, dogs — remain banned from entry points.
Tittle promised a "significant number" of officers at Saturday's parade and Lower Greenville block party. There will also be some off-duty officers in the parade dressed as superheroes.
Organizers have tried to make the festival more family friendly in recent years. And 2013′s parade went off without any major incidents after a 2012 that ended with a man shot by would-be robbers while he was trying to leave Lower Greenville after a day and night at the festivities. He died late last year of his injuries.
Still, despite the emphasis on families, some will partake in adult beverages, Tittle said. He encouraged parade-goers to drink in moderation and designate drivers.
"We certainly recognize that everyone out there is there to have a good time. We are good with them having a good time," Tittle said. "We want to respect their efforts and intentions, but at the same time we want to warn everyone that intoxication, driving, being a danger to themselves and others — it is not a safe way to play."

Well not a linux solution ( don't know much about it yet )
but it it still might work.
Some ( many) CD dives have trouble reading certain brands
CD-r's . One brand CD is doing fine in some brands CD drives
while others don't and visa versa.
So try a few other brands CD-R's and burn it at a lower then
the max supported speed.
One other thing to check is looking for a firmware update
for your CD Drive, and look what the CD drive company says about
what brands CD-R's are supported as it is.

Boobs, breast pumps and biscuits: My breastfeeding experience
Hi, my names Alesha, I have a one month old son, Loki; he is a very happy, healthy breastfed baby. I want to tell you about my experiences with feeding my son to give you an insight into what is like to be a young breastfeeding mummy.
From the start
When I found out I was pregnant I decided I was going to try to breastfeed, with all the information I had heard about its benefits it just made sense to me to give it a go. I had friends who had tried to breastfeed but given up because they didn't realise what it was going to be like, determined not to do the same I read books and online information about breastfeeding so I could be prepared. I have to admit I thought myself a bit of an expert before I had even started with all the information I had read, but little did I realise that although my preparation helped you really can't learn to breastfeed by reading a book.
Birth and onward
My little man arrived a week early, I had planned to have a natural water birth but it seemed he had different plans. After 28 hours of labour Loki was born by emergency C section and, although it was the complete opposite to what I had planned, seeing him for the first time was amazing.
Soon after I was recovering on the ward and I was asking to try and feed my son, with some help from a midwife after a few minutes of fumbling he successfully latched on and was feeding. I was absolutely exhausted from labour but for the next couple of days I was feeding Loki every 3 hours and starting to recover slowly.
Everything seemed great and, despite my nipples being a bit sore, breastfeeding seemed to be going really well. It wasn't until he was weighed for the first time since his birth that we realised things may not be going as well as I thought, Loki had lost a bit too much weight, midwives told me it was probably because he wasn't latching properly. The midwife told us we would need to stay in hospital until his weight was back up and that I would have to express breast milk and breastfeed to make sure he was getting enough.
The first time I expressed I couldn't express enough milk for his top up, this meant we had to add some formula milk. To say I was upset was an understatement, after the birth had gone completely the opposite to how I had wanted it I was so determined to breastfeed and hadn't wanted to give him formula. So after about 20 minutes of crying and throwing a bit of a strop I calmed down and realised that this was what was best for my son and that the formula was only temporary. Over the next couple of days I continued to breastfeed, with midwives checking he was latching properly, as well as topping up with expressed breast milk and formula.
Home time
A couple of days later Loki had gained enough weight and we were allowed to go home. It was hard being home at first, just the worry of not having a midwife just a buzz away, but we soon got used to it. I was still expressing breast milk at home to add to his breastfeed, not that he needed any more top ups but because my boyfriend really enjoyed being able to feed him as well.
At 10 days we had a visit from the midwife who weighed Loki again; he had already passed his birth weight, which showed he was feeding really well. The next week or so was spent settling in and getting used to being a mummy, then at 3 weeks... Growth spurt! One day my little boy was suddenly hungry all the time and it seemed like he was constantly feeding! This continued into the night, I gave into the fact I wasn't going to get any sleep so decided just to sit up all night feeding my baby and munching on biscuits, luckily this only lasted for one night!
Despite how difficult it was for me to get breastfeeding started and despite all the little problems we have had along the way, I've got to say that I love breastfeeding and can't imagine not doing it. The bond and closeness I feel with my son when I feed him is indescribable and I feel happy that I'm giving him the best start I can give him.

Nothing sparks backlash against a social media service quite like a Terms Of Service (TOS) change. Users who have already willingly given up their privacy to sign up to the services in the first place, suddenly get annoyed when companies push a little bit harder.
The latest row has engulfed Instagram. They announced a TOS change that gave them extensive rights of photos taken with the service, and the metadata linked to those services. Many users were angry, believing that it meant their carefully filtered food photos could sold to advertisers. Ultimately this backlash came back to hit Facebook too. The company is no strangers to privacy rows, and became Instagram's parent in a $1 billion deal earlier this year.
The new Privacy Policy read:
"We may share your information as well as information from tools like cookies, log files, and device identifiers and location data with organisations that help us provide the service to you… (and) third-party advertising partners."
Additionally they said in the Terms of Use:
"To help us deliver interesting paid or sponsored content or promotions, you agree that a business may pay us to display your username, likeness, photos, in connection with paid or sponsored content or promotions, without any compensation to you,"
It all lead to some very unhappy users, and the threats of quitting the service. People believed that the changes were not made to accommodate working with Facebook, but instead to allow Instagram to sell pictures they had created in the service, because what advertisers really want is iPhone photos…
Nevertheless, founder Kevin Systrom felt sufficiently embattled to today post a blog entitled "Thank you, and we're listening." In it he says:
Instagram users own their content and Instagram does not claim any ownership rights over your photos. Nothing about this has changed. We respect that there are creative artists and hobbyists alike that pour their heart into creating beautiful photos, and we respect that your photos are your photos. Period.
He also tries to lay to rest many other concerns of users.
Over on The Verge, recovering lawyer Nilay Patel has dug into what the Terms of Service really mean. He says that while "Instagram has always had an expansive license to use and copy your photos," and could have previously sold them to advertisers. In fact, Patel believes that "the new terms actually make things clearer and — importantly — more limited."
Ultimately, if you don't what these profit making companies to user your data in some way, don't use the service.
The row comes hot on the heels of Instagram blocking Twitter from displaying photos correctly by disabling its Twitter card integration leaving a lot of unhappy users.
Instagram made the move as it wants to build its own web presence and wants users to view pictures they have taken there rather than on Twitter.
Twitter had already been reported to be working on photo filters of its own for some time and duly announced it was launching these filters to rival Instagram a few days later.

Emmy Nomination Preview 2010 - Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy
With Kristin Chenoweth gone, will 'Glee' or 'Modern Family' stars step up?
Aubrey Plaza of 'Parks and Recreation'
Aubrey Plaza, "Parks and Recreation"
Nomination Status: If Emmy voters happen to notice that "Parks and Recreation" became TV's funniest comedy this year, who knows what wackiness might ensue?
In Her Favor: Seldom has any actress gotten more mileage out of eye-rolling and pouting. While those were the only weapons in Plaza's arsenal in the early going, the writers found a way to turn the budding romance between April and Chris Pratt's Andy into one of the show's real cores. I'd point to her work in "94 Meetings" and "Freddy Spaghetti" as strong evidence that Plaza is more than just the master of the reaction shot.
Working Against Her: Emmy voters may notice how much "Parks and Rec" improved this season, but it probably won't be the sort of across-the-board embrace that would bring nominations to supporting players like Plaza or Rashida Jones.

Question: My puggle, Jax, now avoids my toddler. Before, Jax would allow my infant to climb all over him. What's changed?
Answer: We humans, especially kids, can be inadvertently rude with dogs. They hover and hug -- sometimes with a little too much enthusiasm. Without their consent, they pull ears and tails and take toys. When kids do this, we see it as cute and assume (hope?) the dog tolerates the child. When dogs tolerate these behaviors, we tend to take it for granted, even expect it. The expectations can be one-sided; adults don't usually expect their kids to be saints.
We teach kids to be polite to others, so why not use that same principle with dogs?
We don't like it when kids stick hands into our food. Dogs also want to eat in peace. It's wrong to steal someone's toy, thus kids should leave the dog's toys alone. (At the same time, we should train our dogs to willingly give up items; everyone needs to learn to share.)
We sometimes get annoyed when kids get in our face. Climbing on a dog, even vigorous hugging, can be taken as an invasion of personal space. An unwanted hug from a child to a dog is like that goofy aunt squeezing our cheeks -- it's annoying.
Kids are taught not to yank ponytails, so why should that be any different for a dog's ears or tail? We don't want to be disturbed when we're sleeping, so we lock our doors. Dogs can't lock doors; hence, a safe zone that is kid-free, is ideal. Your toddler should learn not to bother Jax in this area. And, you know the kids' loud, sudden noises and screams that startle us? They can have a dramatically more negative affect on dogs.
We need to teach our kids to be polite and kind to others, including the dog. As time goes on, Jax may learn his personal bubble won't be invaded. To learn how to instill positive interactions between all family members, please consider PHS/SPCA's "Kid-Safety Around Dogs" seminar (11 a.m.-noon July 13) which will cover ways to kid-proof your dog and dog-proof children.

By PHIL NOBILE
Future elected officials and management positions in the town will not reap the same medical benefits as those of current management or officers of Harrison thanks to recent alterations to its policy.
According to the modifications passed by the Town Council at its Jan. 16 meeting, all management or elected personnel added to the town payroll after Jan. 1, 2013 will receive identical benefits to that of the local CSEA union which received new contracts with the town in October 2013. The change comes as another cost saving measure in what Town Councilman Joseph Cannella, a Republican, described as a changing environment.
"We're in an evolving landscape, without question," Can-nella said. "The federal legislation makes it more uncertain as where we're going to line up as a culture. All employers need to evolve with the times if we're going to be able to have sustainable programs."
Specific changes to benefits for both the management and elected officials and unions include a requirement of the employees to pay 25 percent of healthcare costs for the first 15 years of their service. Similar to the CSEA and Teamsters agreement, employees are not guaranteed healthcare for life after the 15-year period as town employees hired, or elected officials taking office, prior to Jan. 1, 2013 currently enjoy due to the uncertainty over future healthcare costs.
Also, like the other agreements, new employees and officials will not be entitled to medical buyouts or Medicare Part B or Part D reimbursement, which deals with covered pay for physician services and medical supplies not covered by Part A and subsidized prescription drugs. Current employees and elected officials are entitled to the buyouts.
When asked about the potential savings for the town thanks to the changes, Cannella described the amount as "inconceivable."
"It's a blind estimate, and we don't know what healthcare will ultimately cost for each year, so all we can do is budget for it," Cannella said. "[Costs will be] far more favorable to the town, but, in terms of levels of benefits provided, they're very competitive and fair and consistent with what is being offered."
Harrison has nine elected officials and 29 departments covering numerous aspects of Harrison life. According to Cannella, not every management personnel or elected official uses the benefits offered, and some sign-on with their respective family plans.
Two town unions remain without contract: the Harrison Fire Department and the CSEA Foreman.
The Police Benevolent Association renewed its contract in 2012.
In 2014, Mayor Ron Bel-mont, a Republican, will make $155,376 with the remaining Town Council members making $16,834 stipends along with their respective benefits. Both the town clerk and receiver-of-taxes will receive $99,069 in salary.

Easkey in Iran
Here's an excerpt from Easkey's article on her surf trip to Iran. Photos by Ben Clift.
Unexpected Discovery
We continued to surf 'our' beach for the remaining couple of days. The swell stayed a consistent three-to-four feet with light winds, although it felt like the swell was dropping on the last day.
During breakfast on the beach, in between surfs, we discussed religion with Arman, whose name means 'hope' in Farsi, and is typical of a lot of young, well-educated Iranians from the cities. He says he is not religious and doesn't actively practice his faith. Unlike Bob, who was kneeling down in prayer facing towards Mecca before he stripped down to his leopard print boxers and decided to go for a dip in the heavy shore-break laughing until the under-tow caught him and pulled him out to sea.
Ben paddled out and gave him a lift back to safety on his bodyboard. Despite the language barrier it was clear Bob had loved the experience and we could make a keen waterman out of him yet! Arman says it's a problem when religion is used as a tool for oppression by those in power, especially to suppress women and blame them for the evils of the world.
Despite Iran being a place that celebrates art, creativity and knowledge with a welcoming, warm-hearted people it is still a place where people suffer under an oppressive regime; Arman tells us that you can be sentenced to 75 lashes for being drunk, and be stoned to death for having sex outside of marriage (including rape in many cases). Yet the people are not victims. They are proud, resilient, and hopeful.
Surrounded by the emptiness of the beach and desert it was easy to feel tranquil but we were still out in 'bandit country', a place ignored by guidebooks and tourists, very near the Pakistani border where smuggling flourishes…

Definition of double-bank in English:
Entry from British & World English dictionary
verb[with object] chiefly British
Arrange in two similar or parallel lines; double: you will be double-banked with someone experienced
More example sentences
- The regular rhythm of solid and void evokes the basalt columns of the Causeway and, more practically, suits the repetitive nature of hotel plans - here, rooms and suites are simply double-banked off spinal corridors.
- Some offices get their daylight from this dramatic space, others from the perimeter, allowing office corridors to be double-banked.
- Yeah, that'll work - after all, nobody's double-banked VCRs and copied movies since they started putting the FBI warning at the front of the tapes, have they?

A few weeks ago, Tina and I watched in awe as my sister-in-law and her husband obsessed over the direction that the stroller should be facing while the baby napped on the beach.
Of course, this was out of the corner of our eye as we were tending to our six total kids.
But the breeze blows this way and well maybe it should be the other way and just check the wind sock to see OMG JUST LEAVE THE BABY ALONE ALREADY.
Ah, parents with one kid.
Now look, I have many friends with one kid, and I love them, dearly. And I admire their ability to be able to do things that I cannot, which I think is a benefit to the child and not a detriment.
Plus they're not paying out the nose for a babysitter.
But I think even they can relate to the level of helicoptering that can and does take place when you've just got one kid.
I might even add you parents of two kids in there as well.
Because the more kids you have, as I once wrote and as Jennifer Garner recently said in an interview, you just can't hover like you used to.
Granted, just because you have one or two kids doesn't make you a helicopter parent, however, logic tells me that compared to parents who are outnumbered by their childern, you have more of an opportunity to hover.
I'm the first to admit that I have total helicopter parent tendencies, with my own anxiety leading the way to creating a the first anti-bacterial bubble for my children to live safely in.
Even those of you without such tendencies probably still sometimes coddle when you shouldn't, give in when standing your ground is most likely healthier, and you do somet things, maybe even unconsciously, that could fall under the helicopter category.
At our core, we all want our kids to be safe.
But when you have one kid, even two, it's just a lot easier to do all those things that you probably shouldn't. You can wash their binky when it falls on the ground or cut their food into pretty shapes.
Neither of those things are bad, per se', and there's really nothing to say that my kids will be less successful than the kids with pretty shaped food. Or vice versa.
But when you're surrounded by kids, and in my case often alone, a lot of the extra stuff I might do, the time I might have spent hovering and coddling, is forced out of the picture. Not necessarily because I want it to be that way but because that's how it has to be for us to get through our day.
Of course, you can't just tell people "Well, have more kids, then you'll see!" even though I've wanted to.
Okay, I may have said that out loud a couple of times. I'm an asshole like that.
But if you want to loosen up and you want to let go a little (or a lot), what you can do is parent like you have lots of kids.
Just as I learned so much from spending time with other work-at-home-moms and a mom of one (now two), I think there are a lot of parents who could learn from spending time with moms of many.
And if anything, you'll figure out quickly that there's just no physical way we could hover.
We're just too damn tired.

Texans interim coach Wade Phillips said Wednesday there will be a few minor changes in practice, but much of how the team is run will stay the same during Gary Kubiak's absence.
Offensive coordinator Rick Dennison reiterated that much of the offensive game plan will go unchanged.
"The process will be the same," Dennison said. "We'll set up all the situations, one through 10 calls in each of the situations, so we'll be able to go out there and operate fast."
There'll be one significant change, though, Dennison joked: Kubiak won't be around to immediately shoot down his off-the-wall offensive ideas.

Commercialisation of Sustainable Energy Technologies
Commercialization efforts to diffuse sustainable energy technologies (SETs) need to be sustainable in terms of replication, spread and longevity, and should promote goal of sustainable development. Limited success of diffusion through government driven pathways illustrates the need for market-based approaches to SET commercialization. This paper presents a detailed treatment of the pre-requisites for adopting a private sector driven business model approach for successful diffusion of SETs. This is expected to integrate the processes of market transformation and entrepreneurship development with innovative regulatory, marketing, financing, incentive and intermediary mechanisms. Further, it envisages a public-private partnership driven-mechanism as a framework for diffusion leading to technology commercialization.

- The Angel Food Cake contest is returning to the competitive exhibit lineup at the Wayne County Fair this year. The Incredible Angel Food Cake contest, sponsored by Pennsylvania Egg Farmers and the Pennsylvania State Association of County Fairs, will be held on Aug. 2 starting at 9 a.m.
The entry forms have to be in by July 1. The date to bring the cakes is Aug. 1 between noon and 7 p.m.
Baking a cake is a very rewarding area of home cookery. There are two main types of cakes, butter and foam (egg-leavened). Angel food is the classic example of a foam cake. The cake is 100 percent fat free and, because of the eggs, is a good source of the highest quality protein, as well a source of choline, which is essential to memory and brain development.
Entrants may not have won first place in this Angel Food Cake contest at any other fair in 2013.
Prizes awarded will be 1st place: $25; 2nd place: $15; and 3rd place: $10.
The winning cake will be eligible for competition at the PA Farm Show in January 2014, where the winner will receive $500 for first prize.
When entering your cake, which must be made from scratch and using eggs produced in Pennsylvania, you must also submit the recipe.
Cakes will be judged on the following categories and percentages:
• 30% Flavor (smell, taste, flavoring)
• 25% Inside Characteristics (texture, lightness)
• 20% Overall appearance (surface, size, color)
• 15% Creativity
• 10% Topping, Icing or Decoration

A trio of international horses took to the Belmont Park turf course shortly after 9 a.m. on Thursday in preparation for Stars & Stripes Day.
Xcellence, the 3-1 morning-line co-favorite for the Grade 1, $1 million Belmont Oaks Invitational, breezed one mile around the dogs in 1:46.79 over the inner turf course, with Toast of New York and Pornichet, two of the top contenders for the Grade 1, $1.25 Belmont Derby Invitational, galloping over the surface.
Trained by Francois Doumen for Martin Schwartz, Xcellence started her breeze behind and to the outside of Predicting, who is trained by Jena Antonucci. Xcellence tucked in behind Predicting in upper stretch before angling outside and briefly poking her head in front of her workmate. Xcellence was kept under restraint late to finish on roughly even terms with Predicting.
Xcellence has finished third in a pair of Classic races in France, reporting home 3 ¾ lengths behind Avenir Certain in the Group 1 Poule d'Essai des Pouliches in May at Longchamp and 1 ¼ lengths behind that rival once again in the Grade 1 Prix de Diane in June at Chantilly. She was purchased by Schwartz following the
Poule d'Essai des Pouliches and will be transferred to New York-based trainer Chad Brown after the Belmont Oaks.
"She went very easy," said Doumen. "I didn't want her to have a hard work, and because they opened the turf at 9 o'clock it was already getting hot, I didn't want her to have a strong work. It was not a test. I just wanted to take off the freshness. She hadn't done anything since she got here last Thursday."
Mike Buckley's Toast of New York, who is favored at 3-1 on the morning line for the Belmont Derby off his 2 ½-length win in the Group 2 UAE Derby at Meydan Race Course in March, had a leisurely gallop over the turf course.
"As you can see, we didn't go very fast," said trainer Jamie Osborne. "That was always the plan. We aren't going to work him hard when he's here prior to the race. I think he looks great. He's eating and drinking well. He seems to have taken the whole thing pretty well. We're happy."
Pornichet, who breezed six furlongs on the turf in 1:16.11 on Tuesday at Belmont, turned in a brisk gallop over the surface on Thursday. He is 10-1 on the morning line after finishing third by 1 ¾ lengths in the Group 1 Poule d'Essai des Poulains on May 11 at Longchamp.
"He did his main work on Tuesday morning, so this morning was what Gai likes to call 'stretch and extend,'" said Adrian Bott, assistant to owner/trainer Gai Waterhouse. "He's just out there, sort of having a look around. He wasn't asked to do too much, he was held together, and he was nice and relaxed and had a look around."
Pornichet was purchased privately by Waterhouse in June and will become the trainer's first starter in North America when he competes in the Belmont Derby.
"For the stable, it's a huge opportunity," said Bott. "It's a great thrill for Gai to have a first runner over here, particularly in a race on such a stage like this, in a Group 1 event. We're able to represent Australia and bring the connections over here. They're very excited down under."

Hi Michael
I hope you're well. I had a quick question that's linked to a problem you helped me solve a few months ago. I was looking to create a form that would be submitted to various different e-mails depending on the options the user had selected. I got the form set up and working great but I know need to create another form to do something similar on the same site.
I've had a look at the page you created that explains how to add the required filter (http://cfdbplugin.com/?page_id=804) but I'm not sure how much of the filter code needs to be added for the second conditional e-mail form. Do I need to add all the filter code again for the new form, or just add the new form's details to the existing filter?
Your help would be appreciated.
Many thanks

The Citroen DS5 Hybrid4 has been given new battery management software which improves the efficiency of its diesel-electric hybrid powertrain.
Like the Peugeot 3008 HYbrid4 shown at the Paris Motor Show, the uprated DS5 software improves the amount of energy that can be recovered when decelerating or braking, and better manages the way the DS5's batteries deliver their power.
That means the DS5 DSign model's emissions fall from 99g/km to 91g/km, while the DS5 DStyle and DSport versions see their emissions reduce from 107g/km to 102g/km.
Buyers of the DS5 DStyle and DSport models can take the no-cost option of smaller 17-inch alloys, rather than the 18-inch wheels fitted as standard, which drops the emissions for these models from 102g/km to 91g/km.
Despite the update, prices remain unchanged. The Citroen DS5 Hybrid4 DSign model starts at £27,600, the DStyle at £30,100 and the DSport at £32,300. The revised DS5 Hybrid4 model line-up is on sale now.

BCG Injection
I've had an appointment through for next week to take my little boy for his BCG injection! My little girl has not had one and the HV dont know why he has been sent for? Not really sure what to do? should i take him? I rang up and they said that they give them to babies that are high risk but not sure why they have asked him? But they say he may not be offered it at school when older. I'm very confused and in two minds of what to do? Have anyones LO had a BCG injection?!
After the upset of his last injections i'm really reluctant to but just dont know??
Mia's had it done and Franky will be getting it too, you're LO gets offered it if the area you live in is a high risk area for TB like Nickit said to do with ethnic communities.
Mia had no adverse reaction to it but it did get nasty & puss-y & bled and she's got a nasty looking scar on her arm from it but HV said unfortc this is what happens and i remember when i had it done at school mine did the same
i'd rather have my LO's immunised than risk them catching a nasty illness

HALF PAST DANGER: Dames. Dinosaurs. Danger.
With the debut of Half Past Danger, artist Stephen Mooney finally steps up to tell the kind of story he's waited his entire life to tell. A compendium of everything he's ever wanted to draw, all in one swashbuckling narrative cut from the same cloth as Indiana Jones and John Wayne.
Launching this May, Half Past Danger sees Mooney, a longtime IDW artist, step up as writer AND artist as he tells a story of Tommy "Irish" Flynn, a U.S. Marine who finds himself on a remote South Pacific island in the midst of World War 2 with Nazis on the left of him and dinosaurs on the right. By his side are the unlikeliest of allies, but with those kind of odds Flynn can't be too picky.
Newsarama: Half Past Danger has a big "WOW!" factor with those dinosaurs and Nazis on the cover, Stephen. What can you tell us about this book?
Stephen Mooney: Here's the pitch:
Dames. Dinosaurs. Danger. Summer, 1943, and in the midst of a war waged by monsters, Staff Sergeant Tommy 'Irish' Flynn never expected to encounter a real one. But on a remote island in the South Pacific, Flynn and his squad come face-to-fanged-face with creatures long thought dead. As the world falls apart, a unique set of characters come together: An embittered Irishman in a war not his own, a beautiful and enigmatic British agent, a U.S. Marine Captain with incredible resilience and a secret and a mysterious operative from the land of the Rising Sun, all served up in a stew of piping-hot Nazi intrigue.
History meets Prehistory in this two-fisted race against time. And there ain't no time like Half Past Danger.
Mooney: Hmm, hard to say. I guess it's the inevitable amalgamation of most of the things I've always wanted to draw, and see drawn. I realized that in order to get to portray these scenes and events I'd need some sort of a delivery system; this story as I imagined it wasn't going to just happen along coincidentally, fully formed by another writer. Ergo, I had to write the sucker myself.
So to an extent I suppose you could call it artistic wish-fulfillment, in that this is the book with all of the elements I've long wanted to tackle. But I knew I would and could never produce my own book unless I was satisfied that it was at least competently written, and hopefully more than that.
Mooney: Being a brash and impetuous type of fellow, albeit with a half-decent moral-compass, Flynn is incredibly frustrated by Ireland's neutrality in the war. He has an American mother and a U.S. passport, and uses that eligibility to enlist in the Marines and get involved.
Nrama: Indeed. I can't help but ask about another character teased in a cover, a British woman who I learn is named Elizabeth. Can you tell us about this Betty Page-ish character?
Mooney: Well, she may appear to be a little Page-like outwardly, but she's about as different a character as could be. She's an incredibly intelligent, forthright and capable field agent for the fledgling MI6, British Intelligence. She's been assigned to orchestrate a joint-Allied recon expedition to the island in question.
Nrama: Allied Forces at work here. What other characters play big roles in this story?
Heading up the Axis forces on the island is one of Hitler's most trusted and capable Waffen SS Lieutenants, Oberleutnant Toht.
Nrama: What's the setting of this – I see it's in the South Pacific, but I don't remember there being an island full of Dinosaurs and Nazis in the Pacific, Stephen.
Mooney: Well, yeah. It's set on an indiscriminate island somewhere in the Pacific Theatre, precisely which one is revealed in the second issue. I don't want to give away too much here, but obviously, the island is home to some rather ancient inhabitants. As well as some decidedly more Germanic ones.
Mooney: Because I'm crazy? Nah, the real answer is because I wanted to tell my own story, my own way. Doing absolutely everything myself affords a near-complete level of control over the output, and means that I get to make pretty much every call on the way the story develops. My editor, Chris Ryall, is pretty much the only guy that can tell me to change something, and he's the kind of editor that only offers some criticism or advice when it's absolutely warranted. The best kind, in other words. Other than that he just lets me get on with it, assuming I'm getting all of the work handed in on time.
And it's a LOT of work!
Nrama: I can tell. So much that I noticed you enlisted Jordie Bellaire to chip in on colors starting with issue #2. I know this is a very personal project for you – so how'd you go about choosing Jordie?
Jordie was just the perfect answer at the right time. She's a good friend of mine, being the gal-pal of one of my best mates, Dec Shalvey, not to mention one of the best and most in-demand colorists in the biz. When she saw the bind I was in, she basically offered to help out, purely because she's an utterly lovely person and also a huge fan of all of the same inspirational material that brought this project about. So I of course took her up on her offer, being that she could do the job at least as well as I could, and most probably better!
It hurt a lot to relinquish that aspect of control over the book, but Jordie is the one person I was happy to see take the reigns. She knows this material inside and out, and we're totally simpatico when it comes to the color-direction for the book.
I'm pretty sure she's cursing my name now that she's realized just how much work there is on each and every page, but what the hell. Like I keep reminding her, it builds character.
I'm still handling every other aspect, from writing to lettering. I'm also coloring almost all of the covers, just to keep myself involved in that capacity.
Mooney: Well, I did write the entire thing before drawing any pages, yes. But I didn't include any detailed shot descriptions or directions for the most part, as I knew I'd be figuring that all out in the layouts, and didn't want to do the same work twice. As for why I wrote the entire thing first, well that was just to give myself the conviction to wade into the artwork with the requisite gusto that it takes to draw 150-odd pages. If I didn't know exactly how the thing was paced, and more importantly what it was building to and how it ended, I could never have motivated myself into getting the whole thing done and on schedule. At least I assume that's the case. I wanted to remove any and all potential momentum-killers before the art began, as it was by far the largest amount of work required.
Nrama: From doing this, did you gain any new respect or perspective for the writers, colorists, letterers and inkers you've worked with in the past and down the road in the future?
Mooney: Hoo boy, totally. Mostly colorists, I think. I didn't really understand exactly how much work went into choosing and maintaining different palettes and setting all of the various scenes. I just found it incredibly time-consuming, but at the same time tremendously rewarding. I've colored many covers over the past 10 years, but these are the first interiors I've ever really tackled. I must say that I'm delighted that I at least got to complete the first single issue entirely by myself, and thus set up the color 'bible' for the series, which Jordie is running with, and in all likelihood improving on.
Mooney: Very hard, yeah. But I was so, so cautious about just chucking every random idea I had in there, as that way chaos lies. I was happy enough to cut anything that didn't directly suit this particular first story, as I'm hoping to get to do more down the line, and it doesn't hurt to have a few good ideas and set-pieces already in the bag. There's quite a bit of stuff that didn't fit one way or another, but I'm sure the bulk of it'll sees the light of day in one format or another eventually.
One aspect of the book that pleases me the most, and this is entirely down to Chris Ryall and IDW, is that I'm getting to use pretty much all of the interior pages of most of the issues for story. Ads are a secondary concern, which is amazing and just shows the support IDW are willing to give the book. Plus, it's a boon for the readers in that they get a lot more story pages per issue than your standard 20-page fare.
Nrama: One last question – the ninja. I saw one show up in a preview for issue #3, but no matter how sneaky he is I caught him. What can you tell us about the ninja that shows up in the book?
Mooney: Oh, he's in there alright, and from the first issue. It might sound crazy having a Ninja show up to fight dinosaurs and Nazis. But that's Half Past Danger.

"The experience that I had with Jonathan and Bo was the absolute best experience that I have ever had with a collision repair shop. Jonathan was familiar with my chicle and all of the handicapped modifications that had been put in for my husband. He spoke with knowledge of equipment and needed repairs. Bo was extremely knowledgeable about the best way to get the vehicle apart and the mists currants way of getting all the equipment repaired. They were both friendly and helpful. I have passed along to my friends the experience that I had with this particular company. I will continue to use them for all of our vehicle needs. They are the best at what they do and are the friendliest and most understanding." – Sheryl
"I have taken my car to Calliber Collision in Richland Hills @ Blvd 26 and have been so pleased with the efficiency of their work.

They are courteous and helpful and the body work is perfect. Thanks for doing a great job!!!" – Diane

"Excellent service and performance" – Lee
"Gotta tell you, Chris COBOL and his wonderful, artistic crew know what they're doing!

My wife and I still tell others about our wonderful experience at this cleaning and friendly shop." – George

I am very grateful." – Beverly
"after we had been in an accident our insurance company advised us to contact caliber collision, i sent an after hours email and was responded to within minutes. we received a next day appointment for an estimate and they took possession of our truck the following day. we were quoted 10 day repair time and the work was done in half of that and for less than the quote. since i was only paying my deductible i was blown away by their integrity and workmanship excellent top to bottom in and out . Maria Collins kept us informed and aware of the progress. if most business's worked this way we would all be better off. thank you all so much for taking care of us, it made a tough time much easier to deal with. -John" – john
"Nate and his crew did an amazing repair job on my car. My 04 Mustang looked practically brand new. Not only was the repair done but the car was shiny and clean inside and out. Thank you! I also appreciated the fact that Nate took the time to go over all of the repairs with me. That truly adds a touch of class to the repair process. Thank you so much!" – Joyce
"Caliber Collision @ Dallas Galleria is a Top Caliber shop! From the front office with Allison and her dedication to customer service, and Chris Mays's attention to detail and technical expertise, Caliber collision made me feel I had put my car in the right hands!" – David
"Caliber was the lowest quote, most professional from the time I walked in, best presence of a well run and clean shop, excellent follow up and fine work." – A
"Had my truck repaired at Caliber and I am extremely satisfied. The entire process was simple, professional the work was excellent. Dustin Allison went above and beyond to keep me informed and make sure the repairs were done right! Caliber has earned my future business as well!" – Kelly
"Our son had a little accident in College Station and we were a little concerned about having the Infinity G35 repaired so far from home ase we could not be very involved in the process to insure that the repairs were completed with quality workmanship along with quality materials. We worked through our concerns with Lance and I must say we have been very pleased with the entire process. Lance put us at ease from the start and followed through to completion. You guys exceeded our expectations and we would definitely send business your way. Excellent workmanship and superb customer service." – Glen

SALISBURY � Leonard Lee Dineen, 62, of 529 Dutchtown Rd., Dolgeville, town of Salisbury, died unexpectedly Wednesday, Nov. 27, 2013, at his residence, of natural causes.
