Welcome to the new IAVCEI website.
A lot of work remains from a graphic point of view, but contents from the old website have been almost all transferred.
IMPORTANT: due to bureaucratic matters, at the moment the purchase of volumes of Bulletin of Volcanology from the IAVCEI website is suspended. You can still fo to the Springer web site and purchase from there.
We apologize in advance for any malfunction of the website; we are working on it!
Dear students interested in participating to the incoming COV9 in Chile, in agreement with COV9 organizers and COV commission leaders, the IAVCEI offers a limited number of extra grants for covering the inscription fee to the congress.
The Secretary General
It is with heavy heart that we announce the tragic passing away of our member Prof. Bruno Capaccioni (University of Bologna, Italy). Bruno was a well-known and respected Italian geochemist. He died on September 8 in a car crash. We send our deepest condolences to those of you who knew Bruno well.
Sit illi terra levis!
I am sorry to receive the news that Prof. Paolo Gasparini passed away on the night of July 28, 2016.
Prof Gasparini was emeritus at University Federico II in Naples, Italy.
His brilliant career was marked by numerous achievements in the fields of Geophysics and Volcanology, making him one of the most recognised scientists in Italy and worldwide.
He served as Vice President (1987-1991) and President (1991-1995) of IAVCEI.
Roberto Sulpizio
January 30 and February 3, 2017 in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia.
This international conference aims to bring together researchers and students to discuss the past decade's advances in understanding various types, mechanisms, consequences and tectonic environments of submarine volcanic eruptions. We also plan to take advantage of the assembled expertise to plot a course for possible future directions of reserach in the various fields encompassed by submarine volcanology.
The Chapman Conference objectives are to:
The meeting will have invited talks, contributed talks, workshops, and posters. There will be a single session each day, ensuring that attendees remain together to maximize interactions and exposure to new ideas and subjects. There will be a field trip on day 3 of the conference and field trips offered before and after the meeting as well.
We intend to create an online survey in the next months prior to the conference which will solicit the community's input at identifying the future priorities in terms of science, technology and data. The outcomes of this conference will be reported and publicly available with a list of future priorites and directions in submarine volcanology.
Please view information about this Chapman conference here:
There is limited funding available for early career researchers for those who are IAVCEI members. We will advertise this funding opportunity closer to the time of the conference.
Many thanks and we look forward to seeing you in 2017!
Chapman Conveners and Program Committee
Dear volcanologists,
The call for hosting the next IAVCEI Scientific Assembly is now online at this link.
The form is for a pre-proposal and needs to be formalised by November 15.
With best wishes
Roberto Sulpizio
Dear IAVCEI member,
As you probably know from the last issue of IAVCEI NEWS, we will reintroduce the payment for the IAVCEI membership starting from January 1, 2016.
IAVCEI has increased its activity in recent years, financing grants for researchers from developing counties, international workshops and schools, and providing financial contributions to COV meetings and IAVCEI scientific assemblies. This activity requires income that cannot be guaranteed by only the voluntary contributions from members and from IUGG annual payments to IAVCEI. Thus, we find a need for membership fees to provide a regular annual income, similar to other international scientific associations.
Official Journal of the IAVCEI - International Association of Volcanology and Chemistry of the Earth`s Interior
Executive Editor: James D. L. White

Los Angeles based artist Aaron Axelrod unveils "Melting Rainbows," a 360 degree Vortex Dome theater presented by c3: Center for Conscious Creativity and Vortex Immersion Media. Axelrod's "Melting Rainbows" fully immerses viewers in the experience of both a filmed and live visual hallucination including melting, dripping and color-shifting imagery.
This technique is accomplished by Axelrod's experimental use of "fulldome" visual projection which combines multiple projectors to create a large seamless image on the dome. Axelrod has created both a short film and developed a live performance to showcase this technique. The film combines innovative visuals with an original score composed by solo electronica musician, Pepepiano, as viewers embark on a magical journey through sight and sound. Using the same experimental technique used to create his short film, Axelrod will collaborate with Jeff Smith of Eye Vapor to perform his hypnotic visual performance live to a contemporary array of music and sounds.
Axelrod, a Cal Arts graduate, whose interests lay in the ideas of social interaction, psychedelia, and sexuality has had work displayed in galleries and public spaces in cities across the country. Collaborations have included projects for KCRW, Disney Imagineering, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, TOMS, Coachella, Vans, LA Sheriff's Department, Skee.TV and Google to name a few. Axelrod is currently an artist in residence (AIR) at the Vortex Dome.

SciPlore MindMapping
|Jöran Beel, Bela Gipp, Christoph Müller
|Last release
Beta 15 / March 28, 2011
|Development status
|Operating system
|Mind Mapping
SciPlore MindMapping is a mind mapping application written in Java. It is licensed under the GNU General Public License and based on the open source software FreeMind. The focus of SciPlore MindMapping is on combining mind maps with PDF and reference management. It is especially suited for the needs of researchers and scientists as it offers four unique features.:[1]
- Adding Reference Keys Manually: With this feature, researchers can assign a reference key to the node of a mind map. This way researchers can reference their sources from within the mind map.
- Adding Reference Keys (BibTeX) Automatically: If a file (e.g. PDF) is linked from a mind map and the same file is linked in the bibliographic database (BibTeX), SciPlore MindMapping extracts the BibTeX key and assigns it to the corresponding node in the mind map.
- PDF Bookmark Import: When a user drag&drops a PDF to a mind map, all bookmarks of the PDF are imported as separate nodes and each of the nodes is linked to the PDF file.
- PDF Monitoring: When new PDFs are stored in a folder on the user's hard drive, these PDFs are listed in the mind map.
SciPlore MindMapping is supposed to be the first mind mapping tool that integrates mind mapping with reference management and enables the import of PDF bookmarks.[2] The software maintains a compatible file format to FreeMind 0.9.
The developer team announced in February 2011, that they plan to switch to Freeplane as code base.[3] The cooperation with Freeplane has been discussed at a meeting of the core developers of both projects in Munich on July 2011, and as a result, future versions will be released as an independent add-on for Freeplane.[4]
The development of SciPlore MindMapping has stopped and the project has been renamed to Docear.[5]

Model Who Filmed Justin Bieber Sleeping Says They Had Sex
UPDATE 2: According to TMZ.com, the Brazilian woman that Justin Bieber spent the night with two weeks ago is a porn star.
No confirmation has been made whether she is or isn't a hooker, but, as TMZ says, "she has been paid for sex" in the past.
An adult website claims to have an X-rated video of her made years ago and the company plans to release it later this week.
Bieber's reps claim that nothing happened between the two of them.
UPDATE: In a new interview with Tati published in Brazil's The Sun newspaper on Monday, the model says that she and Justin DID have sex, and this time she was giving out plenty of details.
"It was marvellous and unforgettable... He has quite a fit body and looked great naked," she said, according to Britain's Mail Online. "Take it from me, he's well endowed and very good in bed."
Tati even said that Bieber called her the next day asking her to com back, but she declined because she was "too exhausted" from the night before.
The Brazilian woman who filmed Justin Bieber sleeping last weekend has shared some of the secret details about what happened during the night they reportedly spent together.
26-year-old model/bodybuilder Tatiana Neves Barbosa, aka Tati, has opened up about her encounter with Bieber, 19, in an interview with local Brazilian TV show "Fantastico," hinting that the two may have gone all the way.
When asked if the two had kissed, she answered coyly, "What do you think, if I was sleeping in the bedroom, just me and him?"
But that's as much as she would reveal, refusing to comment on whether or not they had sex.
Tati says that she ended up at the party after a DJ friend who was playing at the club where Justin was hanging out after his concert in Sao Paulo called her and invited her to the singer's afterparty.
"He rang me and invited me, asked if I wanted to go to his house for a party," she says.
But then things get into a bit of a gray area, as Tati claims that she didn't see any of the reported 30 other women Justin brought back to the seaside home he had rented while staying in the city. Like the ones who claim he stood on a wall and shouted "I'm the king of the world" before jumping in the pool with two girls.
Strangely, when asked, by "Fantastico," Tati said that she didn't see any other girls at the party.
"No. I'd already gone into the bedroom with him," she answered.
According to Britain's MailOnline, the owner of the Zax club claims Tati wasn't one of the women at the club that night that Justin had bused back to his rented villa.
"I know all the girls who went," said club owner Marcus Mion. "I personally went round asking inviting them on behalf of Justin, and I put each one in the van that took them there."
Interestingly, sources at the Centaurus brothel, where the singer was partying the night before, told the Mail that they know who Tati is and have seen her around in the past.
Also of note is the fact that all the women invited back to the party were reportedly told to hand over their cell phones until they left. But Tati somehow got hers in to the party.
Tati says that she took the video of the singer sleeping because she woke up first. So far it's had over 34 million views on YouTube.

THE CELIDON FORESTS - Imperian Online Help
The Celidon forests consist of Three forests: The Western, Eastern and Northern Celidon. Separated by the north-south flowing Waelin river, they are very different places. The Western Celidon is a classic oak and elm temperate forest. It is said that Dryads may be found in the forest, though they can be quite difficult to catch. The Northern Celidon is a much darker, forbidding place than the Western Celidon. The mischievous Buckawns, mortal enemies of the Dryads, make their home here.

Well, 2003 has come and gone and so has the deer season. I missed getting a deer this year by a pinched back nerve. My son Patrick scored better; he got a 6-point and a 9-point. Of course he got them in Alabama while he was visiting his in-laws but he did say that he would share some jerky with me if I help him make it. Sounds good to me. I love deer meat and it's not because it's better for you either (it has less marbled fat than beef). I was raised on wild game and as I've often said, "If it weren't for groundhogs (and deer in season), we wouldn't have had meat on the table from Monday through Saturday (Sundays we had either a pot roast or chicken IF we had company). Sometimes we just had a big skillet of cornbread and milk. No complaints; it was good but I loved meat.
I've received some good news from the IDNR (Indiana Department of Natural Resources) and I thought I'd share it with you.
DNR officials presented administrative rule change proposals at a joint meeting of the Indiana Advisory Council for Water and Resource Regulation and the Advisory Council for Lands and Cultural Resources. The proposed rules are the product of input from hundreds of people and intense review by DNR fisheries and wildlife managers and law enforcement officers over the past 12 months. The DNR is proposing more than 30 rule changes to protect wildlife while addressing enforcement, legal and social concerns. Changes to deer and turkey hunting laws, fishing regulations, turtle regulations and state endangered species listings are being considered. The creation of a fall turkey season, extending the coyote season, and establishing new brown trout regulations at Brookville tailwater are a few of the rule proposals that hunters and anglers proposed. A proposal to prohibit use of smokeless powder for deer hunting considered early in the rule review process has been dropped from the package. "We received a lot of opposition to the elimination of smokeless powder, so we dropped the proposal," said Glen Salmon, DNR Fish and Wildlife director. "That's what this review process is about. We want to hear what people think of the changes we suggest." The advisory council meeting took place December 16, at Ft. Harrison State Park office on the Indianapolis eastside. The meeting was open to the public. The rule change package was presented to the Natural Resources Commission on January 20, 2004 and a public hearing is to be scheduled for Spring 2004. "More than 800 people have contributed ideas so far. It's great to see so many conservationists getting involved," said Salmon. For information on the rule review process timeline and specific proposals, go to: http://www.in.gov/dnr/fishwild/about/rules.htm
Waynedale Woods & Waters will let you know what rule changes have been passed and when they will take effect. Keep reading The Waynedale News and have a HAPPY 'NEWS' YEAR.

Queensland's fly-in fly-out mining towns crying out for essential services
- From: The Courier-Mail
- November 08, 2011
THE mining boom is crippling Queensland's coal towns, with the influx of fly-in workers pushing health services towards crisis, according to a study for the Isaac Shire Council.
Moranbah, home to some of Australia's biggest coal mines, has effectively doubled in population in recent years because of the massive influx of fly-in, fly-out workforces.
By next year, the Isaac Shire will have more non-resident workers than actual residents.
According to an analysis by KPMG demographer Bernard Salt, health and police services were drastically overworked, and a submission to a Federal Parliament inquiry from Moranbah Medical said the doctor to patient ratio was now one GP for every 2750 people.
The Queensland average is one GP for every 977 people.
"Continuing to mistakenly assert that non-resident workers do not place pressure on health care and other essential services is dangerous and short-sighted in the extreme," the submission said.
The KPMG study said there was a need for 44 doctors and 235 nurses to meet the ratio.
Mr Salt said there was nowhere else in Australia where the population growth was as drastic as it was in Isaac.
He said there had been three dramatic population shifts in recent years - the seachange, followed by a return to the suburbs and now the coal basins through FIFO.
But he said Australia was ignoring the imbalance because the towns were too far away for most people to worry about.
"We are using a 20th century model to deal with 21st century issues," Mr Salt said.
Moranbah residents also took their concerns to the region's biggest miner, BHP Billiton, presenting a letter to the Brisbane headquarters of its coal division.
However, the company has consistently said it did not believe it should be funding services such as health facilities, although significant contributions have been made by the company, including a youth centre and a sports centre.
Moranbah resident Denise Robertson said she wanted the company's executives to see firsthand what the issues were.
"It's the only way anything is going to be done," she said.
The letter presented to BHP said the company used to provide quality housing for families and used to care more.
"Now our towns are dominated by camps of thousands of people while local families struggle with community services and facilities that are grossly inadequate," it said. "Our towns have the highest median rents in Queensland.
"The roads are dangerously jammed with mining traffic. Our kids have less sporting and recreational facilities than ever.
"There is little suitable family accommodation. Our social infrastructure is not coping."
Isaac Mayor Cedric Marshall said the State Government had "to come to the party".
He said considering how much wealth was generated by the region, there was a good argument for more to come back to places such as Moranbah.

In demand throughout the world as a private consultant, lecturer and communication expert, Patricia Sun speaks here about new styles of thinking and pathways to enlightened relationships. As warm as she is brilliant, Sun gives us new revelations about gender differences, disciplining our children, and accepting paradox as a way to enlightenment. "To be creative in your choice of response is how you put your development into your own hands–this is the essence of enlightenment, the realization that you can do this, and then doing it as often as possible." She believes we are at the brink of an evolutionary leap that will come about when we realize that "we have made the appearance of everything matter more than the substance of being it and doing it." Becoming authentic involves more than being thoughtful about what we say–it means having the courage to discover what we think. (hosted by Michael Toms)
Patricia Sun graduated Phi Beta Kappa at the top two percent of her class in 3-1/2 years from the University of California, Berkeley with two degrees, one in Social Sciences: Psychology and the other in Conservation and Natural Resources. She began her work as a family counselor. Her work today concentrates directly on creative solutions: "re-creating" thought patterns and "re-perceiving" experience. She is a pioneer in describing "right-brain" thought and is considered to be a teachers' teacher. She leads workshops and gives private consultations.

Don Frye believes the time has come for fighters to unite and take a stand against UFC President Dana White.
Back in April, the MMA legend spoke with Sherdog.com about his belief that fighters are being underpaid in the UFC. He even went as far as to call it "criminal" the way White is conducting business.
Spencer Lazara of MMAinterviews.TV caught up with Frye at the K-1 World Grand Prix in Los Angeles to get his thoughts on White, Jon Jones and the cancellation of UFC 151.
"Well, from what I heard is that Henderson got hurt and they were going to throw Sonnen in, but they told Jones he was going to get less money. That's bulls--t," said Frye. "I know one guy who's a heavyweight, and he got beat and he wanted to go down to light heavyweight and they said, 'No, we hired you as a heavyweight.'"
"Why turn the tables? It's the same way on both sides of the coin. You change the fighter. You don't reduce a guy's pay. You pay him the same amount of money. It's just Dana White trying to cheat somebody more."
Jones' statement regarding his reasoning for turning down the fight with Sonnen didn't include fighter pay. According to the light heavyweight champ, it was due to the change of opponents on such short notice. He didn't feel he'd have ample time to prepare for Sonnen.
Regardless of the Jones situation, Frye is happy with how much the sport has grown, but he still feels fighters are being underpaid. If fighters don't grow a backbone and stand up for themselves, he believes they'll never receive an equivalent compensation for all of the hard work they put in.
Frye continues:
"The sport has grown and it's a fantastic sport, but the guys need to be paid more money. Obviously, it's none of my business, and they need to man up and step up and demand some money or like Jon, back out. Tell Dana White to kiss their ass and do the show himself. He wants to bitch and throw a fuss like that. Why don't he put the gloves on and get in there."
White responded to Frye's earlier interview with Sherdog.com, and he stated Frye was "bitter" he didn't make the same amount of money current fighters make.
Is Frye just a bitter old fighter, or could there actually be some truth to what he's saying?

The most recent pop star controversy: "Brave" vs. "Roar." Sara Bareilles released "Brave" back in April as the first single to her album The Blessed Unrest. "Roar," the buoyant hit by Katy Perry, was released mid-August as the first single to her upcoming album, Prism.
Drama ensued because the songs sound a tad similar. Bareilles has voiced to ABC News Radio that there isn't a problem, and that both herself and Perry are just trying to spread positive messages.
Bareilles sings, "Honestly I want to see you be brave/With what you want to say/And let the words fall out." While Perry sings, "I used to bite my tongue and hold my breath/Scared to rock the boat and make a mess." When seeing the songs next to each other, they even appear to be having a conversation. But, the conversation is an optimistic one, so let 'em roar.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) staff is participating in voluntary standard activities related to recreational off-highway vehicles (ROVs). ROVs are motorized vehicles having four or more tires designed for off-road use and intended by the manufacturer for recreational use by one or more persons.
ROVs are intended to be used on terrain similar to that on which all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) are used. ROVs are distinguished from ATVs by the presence of a steering wheel instead of a handle bar for steering, bench or bucket seats for the driver and passenger(s) instead of straddle seating, and foot controls for throttle and braking instead of levers located on the handle bar. In addition, ROVs have a rollover protective system (ROPS), restraint systems, and a maximum speed greater than 30 mph.
CPSC staff reviewed 329 reports of ROV-related fatality and injury incidents that occurred between January 2003 and September 2010. These reports included 169 fatalities and 299 injuries. A significant hazard pattern associated with the ROV-related incidents involved a quarter turn lateral rollover of the vehicle, full or partial ejection of the occupant, and subsequent crushing of the occupant's head or body by the vehicle. Additionally, it is known that at least 42 percent of occupants were not wearing a seat belt, and 42 percent had unknown seat belt use status. Similarly, at least 53 percent of occupants were not wearing a helmet, while 44 percent of occupants had unknown helmet use status. Reporting for this time period is ongoing; CPSC staff expects to receive further reports of ROV-related incidents occurring in this time-frame.
CPSC staff is participating in the revision of the American National Standard for Recreational Off-Highway Vehicles, ANSI/ROHVA 1-2010. In 2011, CPSC staff reviewed a canvass copy of draft proposed revisions to ANSI/ROHVA 1-2010. The draft revised standard includes new requirements for lateral stability and occupant protection performance. ROHVA proposed a dynamic constant steering wheel angle test that is conducted on a paved surface to evaluate the rollover propensity of a vehicle. ROHVA also proposed that ROVs possess visual seat belt usage reminders; leg/foot barriers; shoulder/hip barriers; and arm/hand barriers to restrict occupant egress and excursion from the vehicle during a rollover event; in addition, ROHVA proposed mandatory recommendations for helmet use.
Based on CPSC staff's experience with vehicle dynamics testing and occupant protection performance testing of ROVs, staff believes that the proposed revisions to ANSI/ROHVA 1-2010 do not adequately address vehicle stability, vehicle handling, and occupant protection performance. Staff presented these concerns in a letter to ROHVA, dated 03/11/2011.
CPSC staff is also participating in the development of the American National Standard for Multipurpose Off-Highway Utility Vehicles, ANSI/OPEI B79.1-20XX. "Multipurpose Off-Highway Utility Vehicles" (MOHUVs) are defined as vehicles with: (a) four or more wheels, (b) a steering wheel, (c) non-straddle seating, and (d) maximum speeds between 25 mph and 50 mph. In addition, MOHUVs have foot controls for throttle and braking, occupant restraints, and rollover protective structures. MOHUVs with maximum speeds in excess of 30 mph meet the definition of an ROV.
In 2011, CPSC staff reviewed a canvass copy of the draft proposed standard, ANSI/OPEI B79.1-20XX, which addresses design, configuration, and performance aspects of ROVs. OPEI proposed a dynamic J-turn test that is conducted on pavement to evaluate the rollover propensity of a vehicle. OPEI also proposed the addition of visual seat belt reminders and side retention devices to address occupant excursion in the event of a vehicle rollover.
Based on CPSC staff's experience with vehicle dynamics testing and occupant protection performance testing of ROVs, staff believes that the draft proposed American National Standard for Multipurpose Off-Highway Utility Vehicles, ANSI/OPEI B79.1-20XX, does not adequately address vehicle stability, vehicle handling, and occupant protection performance. Staff presented its concerns to OPEI in a letter dated 04/14/2011.
CPSC staff is continuing to conduct static and dynamic testing of ROVs to evaluate rollover thresholds, vehicle steering characteristics, and occupant protection performance. The information will be used to support voluntary standard development or to develop draft mandatory standard requirements for Commission consideration to improve consumer safety.

Kaitlyn likes being able to meet with her professors one-on-one—even when she's thousands of miles away.
"When I was in Japan doing an independent study, I communicated with my advisor through Skype," she says. "You really get to know the faculty, which is one of North Central's top attributes. I've become very close to my professors."
Between classes, clubs and study abroad trips, Kaitlyn has found plenty of ways to immerse herself in Japanese language and culture. She's president of the Japan Club and is also active in International Club and Model UN.
"Every experience here has helped create a path to my future," she says. "North Central is definitely one of the best places to study Japanese."

BSC 2013 Graduate Kevin Neese Prepares for Teaching Assignment in Japan
CreatedWednesday, May 22 2013
Created byJim Nelson/Media Relations - (304) 327-4103 firstname.lastname@example.com
(Bluefield)—When Kevin Neese walked across the stage to receive his diploma at Bluefield State College's 2013 commencement exercises, the Bluefield resident was positioned for what truly is the "next adventure" in his life. This July, he will take his first air flight and first trip abroad to begin teaching "English as a Second Language" (ESL) in Japan.
An English/Humanities major at BSC, Neese is participating in the Japanese Exchange & Teaching Program (JET) a competitive program to promote Japan's openness to cultural exchange with other nations. "I'm honored to have been selected," Neese noted, just a few days before graduating from BSC. "JET is a very competitive program with more than 10,000 applicants each year, from which around 1500 are accepted."
A 2005 graduate of Bluefield High School, Neese will be fulfilling a lifelong a dream when he travels to the Orient. "I have always been interested in the international experience, and I really enjoy Japanese literature and art," he explained. While serving as an assistant language teacher in the ESL program, Neese will also receive free Japanese language training while there.
"JET participants are cultural ambassadors for America who, upon their return, tell other Americans about Japanese culture and language," he added. Neese, the son of Bluefield residents Pam and John Neese, expressed special appreciation to Dr. Luciano Picanco, Director of the International Studies Program at Bluefield State College, and to BSC faculty members Dr. Aleta Crockett, Dr. Sean Connolly, and Dr. Sudhakar Jamkhandi.
"I am very proud of Kevin," Dr. Picanco said. "He put a lot of effort into getting this opportunity. This will be very important at three levels; it will change him—the world will get smaller and people more alike; it will change his students in Japan because they will know more about us and about the United States, and; it will eventually change our region—when Kevin returns with new ideas and experiences to share."
Kevin will depart from the United States to Japan on July 27.

Volunteers with the Food Bank of Eastern New Mexico will be out Saturday in Portales and Clovis collecting canned food and non-perishable items.
Another drive will be held within the schools that will also help stock the food bank, said executive director Nancy Taylor.
"This (Saturday's) is the one that means so very much to us. It will keep us running until the Mother's Day canned food drive," Taylor said.
Those wishing to donate are asked to place their donations curbside so that the volunteers can pick them up, Taylor said.
Volunteers will be out from 9 a.m. to noon for collections.
In the past, the drive has been held in Clovis. This year the food drive has branched out to Portales.
"It keeps us able to serve our agencies through the cold winter months and gives our food pantry people the support to carry out their work," Taylor said of the canned food drive.
Rising costs of fuel and an energy crunch has Taylor concerned that demand for food will increase, she said.
"It's a good organization and they do a lot of good work," said board member Glen O'Rear. "It's really amazing what they do."
O'Rear will be one of the many volunteers out on Saturday in Portales helping to collect donations for the canned food drive. All efforts
will be used in order to collect donations for the food bank, he said.
"If somebody has donations, we will do what we can to collect it," O'Rear said.
At a glance:
What: Holiday Canned Food Drive
Where: Communities of Portales and Clovis
When: Saturday
Time: 9 a.m. to noon
• Canned goods and non-perishable items may be placed curbside for volunteers to collect during the food drive.

Today I just found two great sources of information on Search Engine Optimization.
Google's search engine starter guide
The first has been released directly by Google: Search Engine Optimization Starter Guide
It covers the most common areas that might need a bit of optimization: urls, titles, metatags, image's alt attributes, robots.txt file and other topics. A must read for everybody that is interested in the topic.
SEO for ASP.NET podcast
The second resource is the great (as always) podcast by Polymorphic Podcast about SEO for ASP.NET.
The guest, Michael Neel, talks about which are the main points of Search Engine Optimization, especially with ASP.NET.

Last week Craig Shoemaker published the 50th show of this great Polymorphic Podcast: ASP.NET MVC Resources.
Around 4:15 he says hello to me and thanks me for pointing him to some resources, and doing so he is the first English speaking person I know that pronounced my name and also also my surname right.
I lived in a English speaking country for 8 months and it was frustrating to never hear my name pronounced correctly even after I put an audio file pronouncing it the Italian way (JB almost got it during my video interview), so it's great to hear someone who...

The first episode of TUF Brasil was unveiled Sunday night for audiences outside of Brazil with sixteen fighters in the middleweight and featherweight divisions advancing into the house on an evening full of highlights.
Wanderlei Silva and Vitor Belfort both clearly enjoyed what they saw during the episode based on the number of finishing performances, as each is serving as a coach on the first season of the Ultimate Fighter outside of America. The two, along with the finalists in both weight classes, will all compete at UFC 147 later this year in Brazil.
While different in origin, TUF Brasil follows the same guidelines as the previous seasons of the standard version. Fans can catch new episodes every Sunday night on TUF.TV (with past episodes still available) though the season is expected to air later this year via FUEL TV for those interested in watching on a bigger screen or with limited bandwidth.
Here are the complete results from the elimination fights earning each winner a spot in the house:
Rony Mariano def. Dileno Lopes by TKO Round 1 (Strikes)
Godofredo de Oliveira def. Johnny Goncalves by Submission Round 1 (Triangle Choke)
Hugo "Wolverine" Viana def. Alexandre Ramos by TKO Round 1 (Strikes)

I'm playing as a Crossblooded sorcerer and chose Arcane as one of my bloodlines. Since being Crossblooded allows you to take lower-level bloodline abilities at higher levels and/or take abilities that would normally branch into another one, it seems like some odd things can come about.
My first question has to do with the Metamagic Adept ability.
Metamagic Adept (Ex): At 3rd level, you can apply any one metamagic feat you know to a spell you are about to cast without increasing the casting time. You must still expend a higher-level spell slot to cast this spell. You can use this ability once per day at 3rd level and one additional time per day for every four sorcerer levels you possess beyond 3rd, up to five times per day at 19th level. At 20th level, this ability is replaced by arcane apotheosis.
Does this mean that if I select Metamagic Adept as my 9th level power, at 20th level if I select a bloodline power that isn't Arcane Apotheosis, Arcane Apotheosis replaces Metamagic Adept anyways?
For my second question, if I select New Arcana as my 20th level bloodline power, what of these would be true?
New Arcana (Ex): At 9th level, you can add any one spell from the sorcerer/wizard spell list to your list of spells known. This spell must be of a level that you are capable of casting. You can also add one additional spell at 13th level and 17th level.
A.) I get to pick one spell, up to 9th level, to add to my list of spells known.
B.) I get to pick up to one 4th level spell (9th level sorcerer), up to one 6th level spell (13th level sorcerer), and up to one 8th level spell (17th level sorcerer) to add to my list of spells known.
C.) I get to pick 3 spells, up to 9th level, to add to my list of spells known.
D.) I don't get to add any spells to my list of spells known since I am not 9th, 13th, or 17th level.
I apologize if these questions have already been addressed, but I used the search function and didn't see any relevant posts. Thanks!
My understanding/rules interpretation:
First question: if you don't select Arcane Apotheosis at Sorcerer 20, then you don't get it as a "replacement" for Metamagic Adept.
Second question: if you select New Arcana at Sorcerer 20, then you get three new spells known (one of up to spell L 4, one of up to L 6, and one of up to L 8) - in other words, answer B from your list.
It's reasonable to read it as meaning when you take Arcane Apotheosis, it subverts Metamagic Adept. You still have to take it for the replacement to happen. Keep in mind the general archetype rule (and sorc bloodlines, essentially, function as archetypes) that if you replace an earlier ability in a "chain" of abilities, all subsequent abilities in the chain are "shifted back" to account.
Regarding New Arcana, I'd say the same "shift back" principal applies. If you take it at lvl 20, you can pick one spell that you could cast at lvl 20. You'd have to gain 4 more levels for the next spell (presuming your game allows this).
Spoke to my playgroup and GM today. We came to the consensus that since it isn't specifically addressed in any way going by the RAW is the way to go. Metamagic Adept is automatically replaced by Arcane Apotheosis at Lv. 20 no matter what and New Arcana only benefits you if you're 9th, 13th, or 17th level while you have it. Thanks for the input.

It's replaced, but you don't have the ability so, essentially, that reading means at lvl 20, you lose Metamagic Adept and have nothing to replace it.
No. Metamagic Adept becomes that ability. It doesn't say "at 20th level, when you get Arcane Apotheosis, you lose this ability [Metamagic Adept]."
Honestly, I'm not sure why that line is even in there.
They could have just as easily put, "At 20th level you can use this ability any number of times a day." and Arcane Apotheosis could have been reduced to "Whenever you use magic items that require charges, you can instead expend spell slots to power the item. For every three levels of spell slots that you expend, you consume one less charge when using a magic item that expends charges."
However, as it is written, at 20th level I get Arcane Apotheosis as long as I have Metamagic Adept. Alternatively if I'm wearing a Robe of Arcane Heritage at Lv. 16 and MMA turns into AA, then if I take off or lose the robe I lose AA and don't regain MMA. Talk about rough!
Crossblooded Sorcerer already gets poo'd on enough with the -2 Will save and knowing one less spell at each level. It doesn't seem gamebreaking for them to get something nicer than minor versatility and a second arcana.
Unless someone would like to direct a dev towards this topic to tell us otherwise, my group will be playing it as written. Thanks, again.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India last month announced an 18-member touring party that will visit England for a five-Test series in the summer, starting July 9 at Trent Bridge, Nottingham.
While most of the squad members picked themselves, there were a few surprise inclusions and exclusions as well, which have been discussed earlier.
Meanwhile, the Indian selectors picked a second-string squad to tour Bangladesh for three one-day internationals in Dhaka, in what was a rather make-shift series wedged in the gap between the Indian Premier League and the England tour.
While the decision to pick a weakened squad for Bangladesh had its critics prior to the start of the series, the Indians have responded by winning the first two ODIs and sealing the series before the third match on Thursday.
India were always going to send their best players to England, but with the selection debates over the last couple of weeks surrounding both series, it would be an interesting experiment to ponder over an alternate Indian Test XI.
We decided to give it a go and here's our pick of a rather different-looking Indian Test XI from what you will see during the England tour. Note that the players on this team have been picked after taking into account the following criteria:
- Form in the last 12 months (including domestic season)
- Technical skills and talent to thrive in England
- Experience and reputation
Have a look at our XI and let us know if you agree or would have picked someone else.

Voice care center offering therapy, surgery for singers, educators, seniors and others
DALLAS — Nov 20, 2008 — UT Southwestern Medical Center has gathered a team of specially trained physicians and therapists to launch a new center for voice care dedicated to disorders of the voice and larynx.
"The voice is really the window to your soul. People's emotions are very tied to their voice," said Dr. Ted Mau, newly recruited assistant professor of otolaryngology — head and neck surgery and director of the Clinical Center for Voice Care. "Especially for those who depend on their voice for their profession and their livelihood, we are able to help and really make a difference in their lives."
The voice care center targets professionals who rely on their voice — singers, actors, public speakers, lawyers, preachers and teachers — as well as seniors or anyone else experiencing deterioration or other problems with their voice.
"Voice issues affect more people than you would expect. A lot of times people live with problems with their voice because they don't know what to do. Or they get hoarse and they think it's just a sign of aging, or maybe they had a trauma and they think that their voice is going to be kind of raspy," said Janis Deane, one of two specially trained speech and language pathologists at the new center, located on the seventh floor of the James W. Aston Ambulatory Care Building, 5303 Harry Hines Blvd.
Services offered at the UT Southwestern Clinical Center for Voice Care include:
- Videostroboscopy, which allows patients to see how their vocal cords are functioning;
- Voice therapy, to teach techniques designed to correct vocal patterns that may be contributing to vocal abuse or misuse;
- Botulinum toxin (Botox) injections, which treat spasmodic dysphonia;
- Thyroplasty and vocal-fold augmentation, operations on the voice box to strengthen weak vocal cords that are causing hoarseness or breathy-sounding voice; and
- Microsurgery of the vocal folds, a minimally invasive procedure to remove polyps or cysts causing hoarseness.
"We see people with vocal-cord polyps, cysts and nodules that cause hoarseness," Dr. Mau said. "Small ones may respond to voice therapy alone, but large ones may require a combination of therapy and surgery."
Unfortunately, research continues to confirm that many people fail to seek professional help for voice problems, said Dr. Mau, a fellowship-trained laryngologist who completed his training at Vanderbilt University. He earned his medical degree at Harvard Medical School and his PhD from the University of California San Francisco.
Problems with hoarseness and swallowing can adversely affect quality of life and even health, according to fresh research presented in September at the annual meeting of the American Academy of Otolaryngology — Head and Neck Surgery. Nearly three-quarters of seniors with voice problems did not seek help for problems that made it hard to talk, eat or drink, while more than half did not even know treatment was available.
In addition, a National Institutes of Health study of voice problems revealed that while obvious voice users such as singers were on the top 10 list of those seeking help at voice centers, the majority of patients were retirees, homemakers, factory workers, executives, teachers, students and nurses. Most are people rely on their voice on a daily basis. In one of the largest studies examining voice problems, teachers accounted for only about 4 percent of the population, but represented about 20 percent of those seeking help at voice centers. Other studies have demonstrated that educators are nearly twice as likely to report voice-related problems, such as hoarseness.
"Many of the patients I see are not professional singers. More often they are teachers, salespeople, stay-at-home moms, clergy — anyone who uses their voice on a regular basis and are affected by not having their voice," Dr. Mau said.
So when should someone see a voice specialist?
"Anyone with a cold can lose their voice temporarily, but if a voice problem persists, and the reason is not clear, then that should be evaluated," Dr. Mau said. People with voice problems, such as hoarseness or changes in pitch, lasting more than two months, as well as those with persistent laryngitis or a sudden loss of voice should see a specialist.
Others seeking care may include professionals who want an analysis of their voice while healthy for later tracking purposes. The Dallas-Fort Worth area is home to two professional operas, several major choral groups, along with traditional church and school choirs, and several major university vocal programs.
Dr. Mau likens this type of specialized care for voice professionals to having athletic trainers, physical therapists and orthopaedic surgeons for professional athletes.
"Voice care is similar," Dr. Mau said. "You may have a voice coach, but you may also need a vocal therapist to make sure you are using muscles in the most efficient way. If they develop an injury, they may need surgery."
Common causes for voice problems include misuse, such as loud talking in noisy environments and excessive coughing; exposure of vocal cords and larynx to smoking or acid reflux; and indirect causes, such as musculoskeletal tension. Allergies, medications and water consumption can also affect the voice. Neurogenic disorders such as spasmodic dysphonia, Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Lou Gehrig's disease) and multiple sclerosis also can contribute to vocal dysfunction.
In addition to treating patients, the center's staff will be conducting research into vocal problems and clinical trials of new therapies. Education is also part of the center's mission — increasing awareness for proper voice care and providing tips to avoid voice-related problems.
The Clinical Center for Voice Care is staffed by Dr. Mau and Dr. Barbara Schultz, clinical associate professor of otolaryngology — head and neck surgery. Voice therapists include Ms. Deane and Allison McFarland, who specialize in voice and swallowing rehabilitation, voice restoration therapy and care of the professional singing voice. To make an appointment, please call 214-645-8898.

Oh my gosh, Corinna... my boyfriend. I almost forgot about him.
Wow, this was unexpected. Thanks guys!
ow my heart
bwahahahaha the scarf
You guys are amazing. Thank you so much for all of the advice.
what/where is that? I WANT TO GO THERE.
Thank you. Do you happen to remember what the old threads were called? Did a quick search and didn't find anything and I've been waaaay out of the loop here.
Oh also I'm flying there and wondering if it'd be better to rent a car to get between cities or take the train? I won't really need a car within the cities, will I?
Cool things to see? Inexpensive but not horrible places to stay? Delicious places to eat? I'll be staying in each city 2-3 days in August. Thank you in advance.
I thought he was great with Mark Ronson and sought him out afterwards. The album is okay. I wish it was more up tempo. Nothing else seems quite as catchy as Black and Gold. I love his voice...
The suprefan pic wins.
Also isn't that where Chris got almost-mugged?
I really liked living in Lower Haight.
Happy Birthday lady.
Also, accuweather.com > weather.com. Saying.
It's for my friend actually. He is apparently impatient.
Anyone happen to have the presale password for Dresden Dolls pretty please?
thanks buddy!
It's a little hard to see, but it looks as if his crease is NO GOOD.
you read my mind
ahahahahaha at the graffiti
Jens Lekman was fabulous last night at the Fonda. I don't want to give everything away because his set will probably be similar at Coachella, but he had four ladies playing bass, drums, and strings,...
Keriann and Chris failed at attending Vampire Weekend :( Oh man Andy Samberg was there? I would have died.
I would be more interested in Wall-e if it was about Hot Shot.
I never thought I would see the day that someone on the board would threaten Tom's life. That's pretty hilarious.
I have noticed this too. As much as I love Echoplex it bums me out because the Troubadour is so much closer. They hardly ever have shows I want to see anymore.
I personally think the mezzanine at the Wiltern blows. Loge is ok but the mezzanine is huge and steep and not very appealing.
I just remembered I went on an ATV tour of a sugar cane plantation on Kauai. It was really fun and there were some gorgeous sights.
here's the company's website
What's upside-down?
5 shots?!?!?! If I had 5 shots I would have a myocardial infarction.
Also Peets > Coffee Bean >>>>>>>>>>>>> Starbucks.
I think I read recently that they had to shut this down because of too many injuries/deaths.
Yes it was. That's one of my favorite city parks. Gorgeous.
Do we need to put Pot on suicide watch?
Or maybe this is a good thing.
I'm surprised they're doing both in such a short time period too. I have a feeling the Outside Lands lineup might be a little more Street Sceneish to draw a bigger crowd, and the Treasure Island...
What's an average 1-bedroom apartment cost to rent? I'm just curious.
I seriously thought it was the worst movie I'd seen in a long time. I am sincerely amazed any of you were able to stomach it. But hey, since other people liked it, why not give it a chance.
Has anyone seen An Unreasonable Man? I haven't heard anything about it but I saw it on Netflix and thought it might be interesting.
I voted for Nader in 2004 because I thought Kerry was a douche...
Seconded. I wanted to like it, I really did. I am usually a fan of musicals, too. But this was just BAD. So bad. I laughed out loud at some of the dramatic scenes. It had the potential to be...
You should be in Vampire Weekend.
Um, Lifehouse is pretty much like Creed. Just fyi.
Happy Birthday Hannah!
Congratulations on having excellent taste in men.
Awwww man. That is so shitty. He should have just sold it to you for faceish. Why do people have to be so greedy?
Also Feist and Sharon Jones at the Bowl sounds like a good time.
Yes. No.
I want to hear this album very badly.
I liked Hannah's thread better though.
Just go find them and be done with it already. GOD.
What will you be spinning, sir? Is it free?
Indie 103 dj said the other day that the rumor is that they're playing Dodger Stadium.
I hope he's wrong.
Why does he hate LA? That's twice now in like 6 months.
So no year off for you, eh?
You'll do fine.
Wait why the hell are you taking the GRE so damn early, woman?
I'm a little bit sad that I'm not on that list. wtf Mr. Nipples.

View in Google Earth
CAMRA Ipswich & East Suffolk branch.
last updated 25/06/2016
A characterful 15th century beamed pub where 'Ring the Bull' was played.
Towards its later days it specialised in South African food, with many exotic meats on the menu.
The pub closed towards the end of 2012 (precise date unknown). Planning permission for conversion to residential use was granted in July 2014.
Thought to be listed in Corn Hill in 1861.
A report in the Ipswich Journal** in Jul 1850 states :
To be sold by auction, by direction of the Mortgagees, with powers of sale, Lot 1, all that substantial and well timbered free hold messuage, called the Fleece, situated in Mendlesham, having frontage next the street of 75 ft, and comprising of a parlour, 2 kitchens, back house, pantries, cellar, 6 chambers, and attics, with extensive carpenters and blacksmith's shops at the back, and 1r 27p of yard or garden ground, now in the occupations of Mrs Susannah Crowe and Mr Ishmael Quinton. Upon part of the above messuage and premises a large retail beer trade has been for several years carried on, in conjunction with the trade of wheelwright, by the late proprietor, and upon the remainder is an old established blacksmith's shop having a good trade attached.
(Most pub, location & historic details collated by Nigel, Tony or Keith - original sources are credited)
The fleece is a common reference to the wool trade that was very important in Suffolk, particularly in 17th & 18th cent. until cheap imports from the colonies undermined the trade.
NOTE: A messuage equates to a dwelling-house and may include outbuildings, orchard, curtilage or court-yard and garden - this may have been an earlier structure to the current property.

SpartanNash Co [3]., Grand Rapids, said it has signed an exclusive enterprise agreement with reach | influence, Royal Oak, Mich., to provide a digital couponing solution for the wholesaler's independent retail distribution network.
SpartanNash said the digital program is the same one used in more than 100 of its corporate retail stores supplied by Inmar, Winston-Salem, N.C., which also has an agreement with reach | influence.
Follow @SN_News [4] for updates throughout the day.
In addition to delivering digital coupons and an e-wallet solution, reach | influence provides direct shopper messaging and detailed reporting and analytics to help retailers better understand their shoppers' buying habits, SpartanNash explained.
According to Linn Peters, vice president, marketing, "The opportunity for our independent retailers to offer coupons digitally, market directly to shoppers and measure the results is extremely valuable and will enable them to continue to compete and thrive as grocery retailers."
Larry Pierce, interim executive vice president, merchandising and marketing, said nearly 10% of SpartanNash's independent retail network "[have] raised their hands" to participate in the digital program. We have been excited by the results for our own Inmar-powered digital coupon program, so the ability to offer the same program to our independent retailers demonstrates our continued commitment to offering value-added services that ensure their businesses succeed."
David Mounts, chairman and CEO of Inmar, said the deployment by SpartanNash of the Inmar platform in conjunction with its own technology and service offerings "will enable smaller grocery retailers to leverage Inmar's analytics programs to personalize offers for shoppers and engage with them through a true omni-channel experience."
