Oyster Bay Offers Shelter And Worries
By SARAH LYALL, Special to The New York Times
Published: September 8, 1990
MILL NECK, L.I., Sept. 7— If action is not taken to protect it now, the officials say, the refuge may eventually have to lose its Federal protection.
Federal Lawsuit
Here in Mill Neck, fears about the refuge's future have collided with the interests of Richard L. Glachman, a lawyer and businessman who says he bought his $5 million house in this woodsy enclave because he wanted a dock for his boat. When he moved in four years ago, he says, no one told him that the water next to his property was owned and protected by the Federal Government.
And no one ever told him, he said, that there would be a problem with his dock, a 100-foot structure where he keeps his $3 million yacht.
The Federal Fish and Wildlife Service, which administers the refuge, says the dock is one of 25 or so illegal structures jutting out into the refuge and endangering its wildlife. The United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York, Andrew J. Maloney, has sued Mr. Glachman to dismantle it.
''He entered upon the wildlife refuge and set up a dock without permission from the Government that owns the land under the dock, land that has been set aside by Congress for protection,'' said Kevan Cleary, the assistant United States attorney who is handling the case.
Mr. Glachman argues that the dock was there when he moved in and that he scrupulously made sure that it had the proper permits and was environmentally sound. He says he is being harassed by a Government that has pointedly ignored the docks in the refuge for the last 20 years, and he plans to file a countersuit claiming that his rights have been violated.
Officials from the wildlife service say the problem is not just Mr. Glachman's dock, though they feel it is large enough to be harmful in its own right. They fear that letting him keep the dock will open the floodgates to hundreds' more docks and hundreds' more boats. At stake, they say, is the fragile ecosystem of the refuge, already threatened by a developer's proposal to build shops, marinas and restaurants on part of the Oyster Bay Harbor waterfront, just 100 yards from the southern boundary of the refuge.
Docks may seem harmless to the average person, said Thomas W. Stewart, the refuge manager, but they can hurt the humblest of organisms and have repercussions all the way up the food chain. The vegetation in the inner-tidal zone, closest to shore, acts to filter sediments and pollutants from entering the main body of water. Waterfowl lay their eggs there; eels, clams and oysters live there; fish like striped bass use it as a nursery, and smaller fish find it a good hiding place.
But Mr. Glachman contends that he cares deeply about the environment. He has spent thousands of dollars, he says, on environmental studies of the dock that prove it is not harming anything. And he says he is willing to make whatever modifications the Government wants. ''They are trying to knock out the small guy,'' he said. ''How can something that has been used for 20 years be illegal?''
The refuge was formed 22 years ago when the town of Oyster Bay, seeking to block a plan to build a bridge across Long Island Sound to Rye, N.Y., quickly ceded much of Oyster Bay Harbor, from the bottom of the bay to the mean high tide, to the Federal Government. The waterway became part of a system of eight Federal preserves on Long Island, now administered by Mr. Stewart and his staff of just six workers (there are five vacancies).
'We're Doing All We Can'
Because it is all water, Oyster Bay's refuge is particularly fragile, Mr. Stewart said. ''We really have to rely on adjacent landowners - we can't control what they dump on their property,'' he said. ''We're doing all we can to protect it, but we don't have the time or the staff to patrol it all the time.''
Mr. Stewart said the refuge was in no danger of being closed soon. But under Federal policy, a refuge may be removed from Federal control if it becomes polluted enough. Under a worst-case possibility here, the water could be returned to the town of Oyster Bay.
''I can envision that it could happen if it reached a point where the area became seriously degaded,'' Mr. Stewart said. ''There would be minimal worth in the Federal Government putting in hundreds of thousands of dollars into an area that is being continually degraded by outside sources.''
As for Mr. Glachman, Mr. Stewart said ignorance of the law was no excuse. ''It's the responsiblity of the landowner to understand where he is living,'' he said.
But Mr. Glachman said he had no inkling that he lived on a wildlife preserve. ''I purchased the property in good faith without any knowledge that it was a refuge - there were no signs, no notices, no nothing. Where would I look it up - the Yellow Pages?''

Glachman says he bought his $5 million house in Mill Neck, L.I., because he wanted a dock for his $3 million yacht.

1. If you're on the internet a lot, you may have seen this video that was released a couple of weeks ago, in which Americans tried various Indian snacks for the first time.
2. Everyone in the video is a BuzzFeed staffer in Los Angeles, and they tried Indian gems as varied as Hajmola and Thums Up.
3. Their reactions were hilarious, but after watching the video, most Indians had the same questions and concerns.
For instance, we all wailed in unison, that that^ is not how you eat pani puri!
4. To demonstrate this point, the always-experimental folks at Sortedd TV got a bunch of Indians to watch the American video, and filmed their reactions.
Via youtube.com
5. And it quickly became evident that despite being a diverse country, India is united by the outrage we all feel when someone messes up our beloved pani puri.
9. Watch the super-meta hilarity in full here:

Buy your dream boat from overseas by sending a secure and affordable international money transfer.
Buying a boat from overseas can be the perfect way to track down a great bargain or get behind the wheel (or tiller) of your dream vessel. And thanks to the rise of specialist money transfer companies that offer cheap international money transfers, buying a boat from overseas is easier than ever before.
Using a money transfer service to buy a boat from overseas
When you need to make any sort of payment, be it a utilities bill, a mortgage repayment or anything else, in most cases you do so via your bank. But if you need to send money overseas to buy a boat, there are far better options available to handle the transfer than your bank.
The exchange rates banks provide for international funds transfers are actually some of the lowest you can find on the market, while their fees (from $20 up) are quite high. The end result of these expenses is that an international money transfer can end up costing a whole lot more than it should, and a boat purchase that was once a bargain can start to look like something far too expensive.
But that's where a specialist money transfer company can help. These companies, including USForex, WorldRemit, World First, and Payza, can offer better exchange rates and lower fees than the banks. International transfers represent their area of expertise, so they can help you enjoy big savings when you send funds overseas.
Belle has found the boat of her dreams in the south of France, and she's agreed upon a price of $5,000 with the private seller. All that remains now is for Belle to send the purchase price to the seller and take charge of her new vessel, but there's no way Belle will be willing to accept the exchange rate on offer from her bank. She decides to compare two online money transfer companies to see who offers the cheapest transfers.
|Money transfer company 1
|Money transfer company 2
|Exchange rate
|Transfer fee
|Transfer method
|Bank account transfer
|Bank account transfer
|Turnaround time
|3 business days
|2-4 business days
|Amount received (in EUR)
As you can see, not only does the first company allow Belle to save $12 in transfer fees, but it also allows her to send an extra €75.50 to the seller.

What companies allow me to send money overseas?
The first option most people consider when sending money overseas is their bank. US Bank, Wells Fargo, Chase, Bank of America, and any other major bank can send an international wire transfer with ease.
We've already touched on the fees and exchange rates offered by banks, so a much better option may be to use an online money transfer company. Providers like Money2India, Payza, USForex, World First, WorldRemit and many more offer this service, providing secure and reliable online money transfers.
Alternatively, if you want to send cash overseas, Western Union, MoneyGram, and Ria run huge worldwide transfer networks. The funds you send can be collected in cash from your beneficiary's nearest branch, with transfers often able to be sent within minutes.Back to top
How can I compare money transfer services?
You'll need to take the following issues into account when weighing up the benefits and drawbacks of money transfer providers:
- Exchange rates. Compare a provider's exchange rates with those of the banks and other transfer companies. The higher the rate, the more money your beneficiary will receive.
- Fees. How much extra will you have to pay on top of the transfer amount to get your funds where they need to be? Can you avoid paying a transfer fee if you send a large amount?
- Currencies. You'll need to check to see whether the company you choose offers transfers in the currency you desire. Some companies support 50 or more currencies while others will only offer a select few major currencies.
- Sending options. Can you place transfers online or over the phone? What about through a mobile app or by visiting a branch? Is the transfer process easy to understand from start to finish?
- Flexible options. There may be certain circumstances where you need to take advantage of flexible transfer options, such as forward contracts or limit orders, to get the exchange rate you want. Other companies will also allow you to schedule regular payments in advance, such as if you are paying off your boat in instalments.
- Transfer times. Compare the time each provider will take to deliver the funds you send into your beneficiary's bank account or wallet.
- Cash access. Will the funds be sent via bank transfer or cash pickup? If the latter, does the transfer company have convenient locations for you and your recipient?
- Customer service. If you ever have an urgent question or a problem with a transaction, will customer service be available when you need it? Some providers will even offer 24/7 phone, email, and live chat support.
- Does it meet US specifications? You'll need to make sure whether your boat will be legal to use in the United States. Will you need to make any modifications to ensure it meets all the relevant requirements? For example, will you need to modify its electrical systems to suit operation in the US?
- Warranty. If the boat is new, check to see if there are any conditions attached to the warranty concerning servicing and country of operation. You don't want to miss something in the fine print and accidentally void your warranty.
- Shipping. How will the boat arrive in the United States: will you go over and sail it to the US or will it be sent on a cargo ship? Are there any customs and importation requirements you will have to meet?
- Can you trust the seller? Buying anything sight-unseen from an overseas seller is always risky, so make sure you deal with someone you trust. Having someone on the ground in the country you're purchasing from can also provide extra peace of mind.
- Extra costs. What sort of duty costs will you incur when importing the boat into the States? How much will it cost to run day in day out, week in week out.
Frequently asked questions
How can I find a reputable money transfer provider?
Compare the features and benefits of the trusted transfer providers listed at finder.com to help find a cost-effective way to send funds overseas.
What personal details will I need to provide before I can send a transfer?
Most providers will need your full name, address, phone number and email address, as well as a valid form of photo ID. Details of your payment method, for example your bank account information, will also be required.
What information will I need to provide about my recipient in order to send a transfer?
You will need to tell your transfer company the beneficiary's name, address, country of residence and contact information. If sending a bank account transfer, you'll obviously also need to supply their bank account details.
How much is the transfer fee that I'll have to pay?
This depends on the transfer provider you choose, how you pay for your transaction, where the money is being sent, how much money your transfer, and how your beneficiary accesses the funds.
Is it better to send one large transfer or several smaller transfers?
In most cases, the cheapest option is to send the funds in one large transfer and pay just one transfer fee. The fee is often smaller and the exchange rate often larger when you send a large amount of money.
Can I use PayPal to send money overseas?
Yes, PayPal can also be used to send international money transfers. However, as the transfer fee PayPal charges is calculated as a percentage of your total transaction amount, it is better suited when you are only sending small amounts.

In other news, KLONE recently released a three-track EP entitled THE EYE OF NEEDLE, which can be downloaded for free at the band's Official Website.

Q1: What was the highlight of your OUS experience?
The highlight of my OUS experience was when we went on a trip to the amusement park, Darien Lake. I had a lot of fun there and had a chance to bond with the other OUS kids more.
Q2: What activities are you involved in on campus?
As of right now, the football team is the only thing I'm affiliated with. But after the season is over, I'm looking to try out for the dance group "Melanated".
Q3: What is the most challenging thing about being a student-athlete?
The most challenging part of being a student-athlete is trying to balance out school and sports. Because of the time-constraint, it's hard to try and do the same amount of work as students who don't play sports. There is lifting, meetings, and practices throughout the day that are mandatory, and then there is traveling for games. It is possible and has been done by many, but it is still very difficult.
This might sound very cliché, but I didn't go out searching for a sport to play. Football found me at a very young age. All of my cousins played and my brother played. Ever since I was first introduced to the game at the age of 5, I couldn't stay away from it. Being on a football field lets me let go of all of my worries in the world and makes me feel like I'm in a whole different world with my teammates whether in practice or a game. And it also gives me the opportunity to hit someone as hard as I can without getting in trouble for it.
Name: Joshua (Joe) Aiken
Major: Philosophy
Hometown: Atlanta, Georgia
1. What type of activities are you involved in on campus?
I spent time on the Link staff, worked as an SGA campaign manager (my team was elected obviously), spoke in the In Your Company segment of freshman orientation, performed in This Is Not a Play About Sex (positive sexuality initiative on campus), acted as the Philanthropy Chair for Phi Kappa Tau, served as the Interfraternity Council President, and will graduate as a member of the Konosioni Senior Honor Society.
2. What legacy/ idea are you hoping to leave at Colgate when you graduate?
All these accolades and involvements are fine, but I kind of lost steam by the end of my spring
semester junior year. It's not that I was burnt out from the work. I think I just became unenthused by my surroundings. Colgate is a school of accomplishment and we even speak in a language of accomplishment: "I worked here last summer. I am working there next
summer. I just left (x) important meeting, now I am en route to a more important meeting." These things become draining after a while, and I realized that I was working to prove a point that's not worth proving to people that wh0 [for the most part] are of no consequence to my life. So, to end this long winded response, I'd like to leave behind the legacy of 'doin' you' — whatever that may constitute. Make a way, make things happens, and grab a 'yes' in a room full of no's.
3. How has being in OUS impacted your college experience? Do you see OUS impacting your life after Colgate?
OUS has already impacted my life after Colgate. During the summer program, I met four guys who will forever be my brothers. These are the individuals who will be the best men at my wedding. OUS has enabled me to acquire resources and friendships that I wouldn't have been able to survive college without — and for that — I am forever indebted to the program. I do not get the chance to vocalize this often, but I attribute all of my success to Frank Frey, Frank Kuan, Andrea Finley, Professor Spires, and all of the other key players in the OUS family.

1. As a senior who is about to graduate, how would you sum up your last four years at Colgate?
It's incredibly shocking to realize how fast these past four years have gone by. I still remember OUS Summer Institute as if it were yesterday. Over the past four years, I have taken incredibly stimulating courses, met brilliant professors, and have made life long friends. I cannot condense my time here into a few sentences, but I know that I would not change my experience for the world. If I had to use three words to describe my experience, they would be coffee, procrastination, and Google.
2. How has being in OUS impacted your college experience? Do you see OUS impacting your life after Colgate?
As a first-generation college student, I definitely think OUS was necessary to prepare me for what the Colgate curriculum would entail. It helped me become acquainted with the workload and how to manage it, as well as constantly giving me the support I need in everything from job search to graduation logistics. I will carry the experiences and friends I have made through OUS with me for the rest of my life.
3. What advice would you give incoming OUS freshman?
Honestly, as corny as this may sound, life's way too short to sweat the little things. Do what you are passionate about, be happy, and HAVE FUN. Also, figure out what work technique works for you. If you are a procrastinator, embrace it, enjoy your day, watch Netflix, and get it done. Ultimately, no one ever thinks back to the nights spent sleeping. Elsa out.

1. What SRS program were you apart of and what was the class about?
I was a part of the Istanbul SRS group and the class was Challenges of Modernity. The class was about the formation of the modern world with a focus on Turkey. We talked about the struggles between the East and the West in setting a model for the modern world and how Istanbul, in particular, was stuck in the middle of this fight between the East and the westernization of Turkey. We also talked about the Turkish political struggles in deciding between a secularist or Islamic government.
2. What was your favorite part so far about being in SRS?
My favorite part about SRS is being able to live with the people that I have class with. It is a pretty amazing experience that I would not trade for the world; getting to know students that if it wasn't for the program I wouldn't have met otherwise. The trip was of course a great experience as well, but what made it better was the fact that I was able to go with people that I had gotten to know for over a semester.
3. What was your experience on the trip?
The trip overall was an extraordinary experience. Even though we were jet lagged for a few days, we were able to recover and enjoy our trip filled with many tours, lectures, visits to museums, and eating lots of delicious food. Although our last day in Istanbul was a bit scary, being that a terrorist attack occurred about 10-15 minutes away from where we were staying, the people that were hosting us in Istanbul made sure that we were safe.
Hometown: Albany, New York
How would you describe your OUS experience this past summer?
My OUS experience was pretty challenging. It was a big change from what I was used to in high school, but it was a very fun and helpful experience.
What courses did you take during OUS?
I took Biology and Introduction to Creative Writing: Non-fiction. They were both great.
What activities have you been involved with on campus?
I am on the basketball team.
Why do you love basketball?
I started playing basketball in 7th grade and I was disgustingly horrible. Now, as a freshman in college, I can't imagine my life without basketball. Depending on where my team needs me, I am able to play almost all of the positions and I really enjoy being on the team at Colgate.
Hometown: Berkeley, California
Major: English
What study group are you in?
I am in the London English study group.
What is your favorite part of being abroad?
One of my favorite parts about being abroad is that I got to visit my best friend, Claire, in Barcelona! I was able to go to Spain because we have three day weekends. She is half-Spanish, so she has been traveling to Madrid every other year growing up. It was so nice going to all the stores and places that she has been telling me about since freshman year of high school.
What activities have you done in Barcelona?
I learned a lot about the Catalan independence movement and that abierta (open) is oberta in Catalan. During our shopping trip and walking around the city, Claire pointed out Antoni Gaudí's constructions throughout the area. We went to the Museu Picasso that had many of Picasso's early paintings on display. Neither of us were a fan of Picasso's Pigeons collection. Then, we went to La Boqueria, where we split a special candy rope that you can only get in Spain before heading off to the beach. At the beach, there was a carnival going on, and we went on the Ferris wheel overlooking the city at night. I knew that as soon as I left, I would miss Barcelona and Claire terribly.
You are currently abroad in Australia. What are some of your expectations for the educational trip?
I'm so excited but also very nervous to be able to wholly immerse myself in an unfamiliar place. I think that one of the most amazing things about study abroad is that is gives us an opportunity to be in a place that, without study abroad, we may never have found ourselves in otherwise. So, I am so excited to be here, to be experiencing a place that is just so drastically different from anywhere else I've ever been. I'm also really anticipating taking Biology classes while I'm at the University of Wollongong. As a Biology major, I feel lucky to be able to study the biological sciences in an area like New South Wales, which has ecosystems and biodiversity that is exceptionally different than that of upstate New York.
Recently, you participated in a research project. What was your research topic?
Last summer, I participated in a research project that was initiated by Catherine Cardelus and Carrie Woods. This study looked at the effects of nutrient deposition on rainforest ecosystems, specifically on plants found in the rainforest canopy. While in Costa Rica, I climbed our experimental trees with Professors Woods, Professor Cardelus, and with three other student researchers. We also collected plant and soil samples and data on the plants from all of our experimental branches. Back at Colgate, we engaged in sample processing that allows us to look at the available nutrient content that was found in each of the plants at the time that we sampled them. Because this study was conducted over a five-year period of time, it will allow us to see what shifts there were in biodiversity, nutrient presence, and overall biological status of the canopy community.
Hometown: Seattle, Washington
Major: Computer Science
What was your favorite part of Japan?
I really liked the space in the city–Kyoto especially. The space Japan creates is different from the United States. I like to explore a lot. So, it was really fascinating to me. For example, I went to a river next to where I was staying. It stretches pretty far–north and south, I think. I liked walking down it and finding a different part of the area I was living in. It was really cool because the river would change. It had a lot of characteristics to it. The river would morph itself according to its circumstances, and it is really beautiful at night. You can hear the splashing of the water.
What is one thing Japanese culture has taught you?
I think on like a really big sense, it taught me how flexible certain aspect of our culture is. This flexibility provides a more interesting perspective of our humanity. The people I hung around taught me to appreciate certain routines–the act of doing. We would go do many different things for no apparent reason. It was not to kill time, but it was to do something during the day. The culture is much more open to going to gardens, little festivals, and stuff like that for entertainment. It makes daily life more interesting and worthwhile.
What is one piece of advice you would give to a junior interesting in going abroad?
I think it would be great to go out of your comfort zone whenever you get an opportunity. I think it is important that if your host family or others you know invite you to go somewhere, it would be better to go. You don't know what is really going to happen. For the times I decided not to go to certain places, I regretted it. The places my host family recommended were really memorable. Don't be afraid to say yes.

Awards and Leadership Positions:
Most Dedicated Student
Former Chief President of Brothers
One class that has shaped your opinion and how?
Any leadership position you have had at Colgate or outside of Colgate you would like to expound upon?
I have always tried to be a leader in everything I do. At Colgate, I was the chief of Brothers, and I also served in other core positions within the group. I endeavored to continue the group's mission statement of educating the community about issues men of color face through brown bags and guest speakers, creating a support network for men of color on campus, and supporting other interest groups focusing on diversity on campus.
Each summer, I serve as one of the supervisors for staff members for the Oliver Scholar Program (of which I am an alumnus) during its summer immersion program. The non-profit organization seeks to provide inner-city students of color with the opportunity to attend elite independent/prep schools in the United States. The summer immersion program vets and prepares candidates for the rigor of the independent school learning environment. I am responsible for standardized test prep classes, tutoring sessions, community building, community activities, and supervising all counselors and teaching assistants for the duration of the program.
How was your host family in Madrid, Spain?
I had a host mom. Her children were grown with kids of their own. My host mom was great. She gave me cooking lessons. I learned how to make traditional Spanish food like paella. She also took me to classical music concerts, plays, and theater. She is a patron of the Museo Nacional del Prado. Sometimes, she would take me as a plus-one, and the museum would give us private tours.
How has international education changed your perspective?
I went to Munich, Paris, and Amsterdam; I also traveled throughout Spain. I think having the opportunity to study abroad gave me a different perspective on learning and life. When you travel, you get to see the world through a different perspective–politically and morally. It forces you to question your beliefs, or it enforces them. Traveling gives you the opportunity to explore yourself.

Feng shui tips for the Year of the Rooster
Here are some easy general feng shui tips you can apply during the Year of the Rooster, which begins on February 4.
- Ting-Foon Chik

Here are some easy general feng shui tips you can apply during the Year of the Rooster, which begins on February 4.
The Chinese practice of feng shui was developed long before indoor plumbing, so modern bathrooms can have a very negative effect on luck, wealth and health—but it's complicated.
Literally meaning "wind, water" in Chinese, feng shui is largely used in architecture and interior design, helping to pick the most auspicious locations, directions and designs. The main concept is harmony between man and nature.
2016 is the Year of the Fire Monkey. According to the theory of fashion feng shui, what you wear during this year can help you to feel in harmony with yourself and those around you. Gbtimes turned to our very own Chinese astrologer, Ting-Foon Chik, for some fashion tips. So here is your fashion horoscope for 2016.
A village man painted a 900 metre high cliff green because he thought the natural white color was causing bad Feng Shui in Ganshui Village, Qijiang District, Chongqing City on August 3.
For nearly three decades, at the entire former Yugoslav territory, one of the best known and most respected performers is Macedonian pop diva – Kaliopi. She didn't gain title pop diva by accident...
Can our fashion style influence our wellbeing? Can it help to reach our goals in career and relationships? According to Fashion Feng Shui, it can. Carmen Okabe, a licensed Fashion Feng Shui Facilitator, told gbtimes what it's all about.
Chinese astrologer Ting-Foon Chik talks about how to improve your love life and whether there is a particularly auspicious month in which to marry during Goat Year.
A Chinese man who was charged with killing eight of his neighbors following a dispute over the positioning of a mirror in Pingdingshan city of central Henan Province has been sentenced to death.
Finding eco-friendly furniture not only helps the environment but could prove to be the best choice for your wallet.

Saturday Night: Praia Urbana At Last Concert Cafe
Photos by Matthew Keever
Praia Urbana Last Concert Cafe June 18, 2011
Saturday, the all-day electronic music festival Praia Urbana was held at Last Concert Café. From what Aftermath saw while we were there, it was pretty much a packed house.
Due to a previous commitment, we got there two hours before the party came to a close. Many people were winding down, but just as many were still going strong on the dance floors, while a few were recharging their batteries with cold beverages on the patio tables.
When we first walked in, Aftermath kind of thought it was a rave. Which, we suppose, it kind of was... minus some of raves' more unpleasant aspects and for a pretty steep $35 ticket.

Like the crowds at Free Press Summer Fest a few weeks ago, plenty of concertgoers found interesting ways to beat the heat, mostly by taking off as many articles of clothing as they could. The festival's promoters and organizers put together water stations and a few sprinkler tents where people could cool off.
It wasn't Summer Fest, of course, but it wasn't supposed to be. Praia Urbana says it has boasted crowds of more than 1,500 people in the past, and Saturday night's festival may have reached that number again.
At least, that's what the dance floor felt like, as we tried to make our way through it to the restroom.
While the festival pegged itself as an electronica expose, there were a few reasons to visit even if you weren't into the whole "dance" thing. The first thing Aftermath noticed as we walked in was the wall near the back of the venue, which had been designated an art wall, of sorts - a blank canvas for a few graffiti artists to cover with whatever they saw fit.
By far, this was our favorite part of the evening.
Three artists (that we saw) contributed to the mural, but we assume that it had been in the process of being completed since the event started at 2 p.m. We kind of wish we had gotten there earlier. But then again, it was 100-something degrees, so we'll content ourselves with congratulating those who were strong enough to withstand the Houston heat and sun.
While dancing, nonetheless.
Praia Urbana means "beach" in Portugese, and this was the festival's sixth concurrent year in Houston. The daytime electronic music festival featured all sorts of DJs, some of whom are internationally renowned. This year, Wally Lopez, Honey Dijon and Riddler headlined the festival, and plenty of local DJs were spinning too, alongside live percussionists.
Past headliners include Jimpster, Saeed Younan, Mr. V, Alix Alvarez, Cevin Fisher, Chuck Love, Collette, David Tort, Gonzalo Menoyo, Randall Jones, Jay-J and DJ Wady.
The festival happens four times a year and, according to its Web site, strives to be "the electronic music enthusiast's fix for their insatiable appetite to the indulgence that is called House."
Consider us satisfied. We may have only been there for two hours, but we had enough beer spilled on us, sweat transferred to us and speakers right next to our heads to last a few weeks.
The festival only ran until 11 p.m., but its attendees all seemed satisfied by the time it all ended. We're sure that they would have been more than happy to stick around for much, much longer, but we didn't hear anyone griping as they made their way back to their cars outside Last Concert Café.
All we saw were smiles. A lot of sweet, sweaty smiles. If there were another Praia Urbana this weekend, we just might go.
Personal Bias: Honestly, we had never heard of this thing, and it didn't sound like we'd know anyone there, but we like putting ourselves out of our element from time to time, so we hopped on board.
The Crowd: We're pretty sure that we were the only ones wearing a shirt.
Overheard Outside the Restroom: "You jacking off in there, dude? Come on!"
Random Notebook Dump: Cameras on dance floors are, apparently, something of a no-no.

Picking A Niche: The 6 Steps Guide
Picking a profitable niche is not as easy as it seems. There are some times when simply picking a subject from the top of your head won't fit the purpose and you'll have to do some more research to find your topic. Here is an easy-to-follow 6 Steps Guide To Picking A Niche.
- Reflect on Yourself: The very first step to pick the right niche for your next blog or website is to think about yourself. You need to take some time to define what makes you unique. If needed, take a piece of paper and write down the essential things about yourself: what you like, what are your interests, what are your goals long term or short term, what are your passions. If you are able to pinpoint what really matters to you, you'll be one step closer to picking the right niche.
- Study The Market: Now that you have a list of possible topics, probably ordered by level of interest, you need to check what's already going on in your niche. Is it saturated or not? Is there a sufficient audience? This step will let you define if there is potential in your niche.
- Learn About Competition: Now that you know there is potential in your market, you need to check what your competitors are already doing in the niche, the angles they are taking. If you find an original angle that is left out by the competition, you may be sitting on a golden egg.
- Think About Your Motivation: Will you be able to keep a decent posting schedule to keep your audience entertained? I know it always seems do-able when you are just starting, but you need to think long-term. In 6 months, your motivation may not be the same, so you have to be prepared but not putting too much pressure on yourself from the very beginning.
- What About Monetization? For this step, you have to think about the methods you will be using to monetize your project. If your goal is to make a little extra-money every month or to work on this project full-time, you need to know how you will actually be making money from it. Will you use Affiliate Programs? Adsense? Direct Advertising Sales?
- Choose your niche! If you successfully reached this step and found answers for the previous ones, all you need to do is choosing the niche!
I hope this quick guide will help you pick the niche for your next project! This is not an absolute guide but this definitely helps me every time I want to launch a new project, now is your turn.

Great tips! Very useful for those who want to explore new niches.
Its difficult to market without a niche…clients don't take you seriously.
Yes, you need to be selective in this regard. It's best to select a niche that's a broad one.
A niche is important to develop vertical knowledge level in the niche you choose.
Gamers know all about niche…thus they are so well segregated
I find it difficult to communicate with people who have a generalistic view about everything but no in-depth knowledge on some specific things!
We are planning to work on a niche and your article was well timed to convince us about this strategy.
How do you suggest companies change their niche?
Niche is how small companies have managed to grow well and demand better compensation.
I'll agree to that Steven :)
In fact, the reason I like this blog is it caters to a niche.
I'll second that Sarah!
Finding a niche is also dependent on what you are good at.
yeah…you can't be a niche if you don't have some special talent in that space.
Agree….without talent there is no niche!
I am a firm believer of niches!
Gaming is a crowded niche though!
…and a truly engaging one as well :)
I like the "Think About Your Motivation" part most!
Yup! I like it as well :)
"Study The Market" That's another crucial point you made! But any suggestions how you do that?
Oh! Thanks a lot Steven. That would be great!

Chaperonin 10 is a highly conserved protein that is essential in protein folding. Recombinant chaperonin 10 (Cpn10) (1 amino acid different to native chaperonin 10) and has immunomodulatory function in vitro and in vivo.1,2 Treatment with Cpn10 improved clinical disease activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and downregulated cytokine responses of immune cells to cellular stimuli.2 An exploratory study of Cpn10 treatment for chronic plaque psoriasis is reported.
Forty patients were screened, and 24 (aged 18 to 75 years) with plaque psoriasis for at least 6 months prior to screening, 10% or greater of the body surface area affected by plaque psoriasis, a Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score of 12 or higher (severe psoriasis), and a Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) score of at least moderate at screening despite current therapies were selected. Patients taking psoriasis medications were eligible if the regimen they had been following was a stable systemic dose for 28 days or longer prior to treatment with Cpn10 or 14 days or longer with topical dosing. Exclusion criteria were infections, malignant neoplasms, abnormal hematology, renal, or liver function test findings, and treatment with any anti–tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) agents or immunosuppressive drugs within 28 days of starting Cpn10 treatment. In this single-center, double-blind study, patients were randomized into 5-, 7.5-, and 10-mg treatment groups of Cpn10 (XToll; CBio Limited, Brisbane, Australia) that was given intravenously twice weekly for 12 weeks. Outcomes were PASI and PGA scores and the percentages of patients with at least a 50%, 75%, or 90% improvement in PASI scores (PASI 50, PASI 75, and PASI 90). In vitro peripheral blood mononuclear cell reactivity to lipopolysaccharide stimulation was measured by cytokine production. Safety was assessed by physical examination, adverse event profile, laboratory parameters, and vital signs.
Patients with severe plaque psoriasis showed improvement in disease activity in all dose groups. Median percent change in PASI scores (baseline median, 23.9) decreased by day 14 (P=.01) and further by day 84 (P=.02) in the 10-mg group (Figure, A). Improvement was maintained 4 weeks (P=.03) after cessation of Cpn10 treatment. The PGA (baseline median, 4) showed improvement by day 56 (P=.02) with 10 mg (Figure, B) and continued to improve to days 84 (P=.03) and 112 (P=.03). An almost clear PGA rating was achieved in 3 patients in the 10-mg group. All groups demonstrated a PASI 50 and PASI 75 (Table; Figure, C). A PASI 90 was observed in one patient in the 7.5-mg group on days 56 and 70 and in another patient in the 10-mg group on day 70. No difference was seen in between the dose groups at day 84 in the percentage of patients exhibiting a PASI 75 response (P = .08). Peripheral blood mononuclear cells isolated from patients after treatment with Cpn10 produced significantly less TNF-α (day 28, P=.046; day 56, P = .04) (baseline median, 1397 pg/mL) and interleukin 1β (day 28, P=.046; day 56, P=.03) (baseline median, 2567 pg/mL) in the 10-mg group (Figure, D). The most common adverse event was exacerbation of psoriasis (4 cases during the study and 3 cases after the final dose). Decreased lymphocyte counts were observed in 6 patients, 2 of whom had upper respiratory tract infections. One patient was lymphopenic at screening, possibly associated with concomitant sarcoidosis. One patient with diabetes mellitus experienced loss of consciousness judged to be unrelated to the study drug. Three adverse events were rated as probably treatment related (scotoma, psoriasis flare, increased proteinuria). Four patients showed a 4-fold increase in antibody titer to Cpn10. The relevance for efficacy is unknown as clinical improvement in these patients was seen.
This exploratory study shows preliminary evidence of short-term efficacy and safety and decreased release of TNF-α and interleukin 1β, which is noteworthy in inflammation.3 Lack of placebo is an acknowledged limitation of this pilot study as marked placebo effects are observed in psoriasis studies.4 Nevertheless, short-term Cpn10 treatment led to rapid reduction in disease parameters in accord with our earlier observations of disease-modifying activity in chronic inflammatory processes.1,2 These results will guide the design of a definitive placebo-controlled study and they raise the possibility that Cpn10 may regulate inflammation in a range of therapeutic areas.

A couple weeks ago, Courtney and I took a short but lovely trip to Colorado Springs. Only an hour and a half's drive from our hometown, Boulder, it seemed only fitting we'd celebrate our birthdays with a visit to the oft-talked about destination. It was my first time, and Court's first time since she was a kid, and we were both super impressed by the fantastic company (we got to see the lovely JL and Dave!) and the absolutely gorgeous scenery. This place is so beautiful!
Here are some pictures from our trip of the scenery, company, and delicious vegan food:
In addition to celebrating our birthdays, Courtney and I were treated to a delightful meal with JL Fields and Dave Burgess! JL and Dave took us out to one of their favorites spots in the 'Springs, Adam's Mountain Cafe! We actually ate at the restaurant during one of its last days in its old location. JL reports on her blog that the new location on 26 Manitou Avenue is even more fabulous!
We spent the evening laughing, enjoying delicious plant cuisine, and soaking in good 'Springs vibes.
On the last day of our trip, we hiked Garden of the Gods a second time and explored downtown and I got a yummy gluten-free chocolate chip birthday cupcake at Coquette's Bistro and Bakery in downtown Colorado Springs. I also got a soup and salad at Poor Richard's across the street.
After the trip, I returned to a package of Chocolita raw vegan chocolate to try! It was the best thing ever to come home to! Chocolita is the purest raw vegan chocolate available, made from only the best, organic, fair trade, low-glycemic wildcrafted ingredients. My favorite flavor was the raw white chocolate Blueberry Lotus flavor. It blew me away; I've never had such a pure, vegan white chocolate before! Some of the flavor notes in Chocolita include: wild flowers, heirloom beans and more. Truly epicurean! If you love fancy vegan chocolate that's low glycemic and delicious, I highly recommend consulting this list of where to buy Chocolita at a store near you or you can order Chocolita online.

Top Forecaster Sees Aussie Demons Capping Gainsby
TMS sees Aussie bottoming out by June, ending 2016 at 71 cents
China, resources and Fed outlook to cap Aussie gains, TMS says
The top Aussie dollar forecaster says that while the unwinding of carry trades that dragged it to an almost seven-year low is nearly over, the rebound will be anemic.
Konrad Bialas, a strategist in Warsaw at TMS Brokers, sees the Australian currency clawing back to 71 U.S. cents by Dec. 31, more optimistic than the median forecast of 69 cents, but still implying a fourth year of losses. The online foreign-exchange trader was also the third-best forecaster of 13 major currency pairs in Bloomberg rankings for 2015, a year when the U.S. central bank raised interest rates for the first time in almost a decade and China's economy showed signs of slowing.
"We are close to the moment when risk appetite will recover," Bialas said. "That will help the Aussie," he said, though "other demons -- China, the grim outlook on commodities -- will stay."
Bialas estimates that a "big chunk" of Aussie underperformance came from the unraveling of carry trades that involved, in particular, borrowing euros at near zero percent to buy a currency linked to a higher benchmark rate. The Reserve Bank of Australia cash rate currently stands at 2 percent and policy makers have signaled a reluctance to take it any lower. Australia last month capped its strongest year for job growth since 2006, with the country's services sector propelling gains as the mining industry cooled.
"I expect the Aussie-U.S. dollar to bottom some time in the second quarter as improved competitiveness of sectors unrelated to mining, a strong labor market and a recovery in inflation will give rise to speculation about the return of the RBA to raise interest rates later this year," Bialas said.
The Aussie has dropped 5.6 percent this year to 68.78 U.S. cents as of 2:08 p.m. on Wednesday in Sydney and fell to 68.27 on Jan. 15, the weakest since March 2009. With investor confidence shaken by China's surprise yuan devaluations and global stocks sliding to the lowest level since July 2013, the Australian and New Zealand dollars have led declines among Group-of-10 currencies this year. The Aussie has fared worse against favored funding currencies, dropping 7.9 percent versus the yen and 6.3 percent against the euro.
Bets on gains versus the euro were built in the final quarter of 2015 and investors were forced to cut those positions as risk aversion gripped markets, Bialas said.
Returns Surge
Carry trade returns surged in the fourth quarter as European Central Bank President Mario Draghi hinted at additional stimulus measures, which typically depress a currency. Investors who sold the euro and bet on a stronger Aussie gained 3.5 percent in October and 5.7 percent in November, before losing 1.7 percent the following month, once interest-rate gains were included.
The December losses were only the tip of the iceberg as January unleashed a wave of risk aversion that rippled though equity, commodity and currency markets. The Aussie dollar, with its ties to China via exports of iron ore and coal as well as its position as a high-yielding developed market currency, has been among the worst hit.
Demand for the Aussie will stabilize amid improved risk appetite, though that will bring with it greater odds for U.S. rate increases, keeping gains contained, Bialas said. He forecasts the currency will fall to 68 U.S. cents by June before recovering to 69 and 71 cents in the next two quarters, based on estimates the Federal Reserve will increase rates three times, he said.
Holding Fire
While traders have been focused on financial market volatility, there are signs Australia's economy has been holding up. A Jan. 14 report showed employers added 301,300 jobs in 2015, and 129,000 in the three months through December, the largest quarterly increase since records began in 1978. An inflation gauge compiled by TD Securities Inc. and the Melbourne Institute released Monday rose to 2 percent in December from a year earlier, the highest level in 13 months. The government will publish official consumer-price data on Jan. 27.
Domestic activity has been aided by a record-low borrowing benchmark after the RBA cut interest rates twice in 2015. Policy makers have held fire since May with Governor Glenn Stevens saying in November that traders should "chill out" until February when the RBA board will look at the data again.
Recent ructions in global markets have prompted swaps traders to raise to 64 percent the odds the RBA will reduce its benchmark by June, from 45 percent probability at the end of 2015, data compiled by Bloomberg show. In contrast, the Fed is predicted to follow its December rate increase with another by year-end.
"I was more certain that the RBA will cut at the beginning of the year when the Aussie-U.S. dollar was 72 cents," Bialas said. "With the Aussie already so beaten, I think that the RBA could stay chilled a little more time."

@Evelynmoo how is the tww going?? Are you going to poas?
@Evelynmoo why do you think Ovidrel is in your system? My clinic advised it was out of your system in a couple of days....
Its a blighted ovum for me :-( d&c booked for Wednesday
Billie2 (22-08-2016)
Annerley (22-08-2016)
Thanks @Evelynmoo my fs did say that normally it would be up to me whether to go off meds and have my body deal with it but she said the sac was measuring abnormally big, about 5cm, which is about the size of a 11-12wk pregnancy so she said it wouldn't be pleasant and suggested against it. It was so heartbreaking as when the fs left to office to get the paperwork, DD said mum, baby, baby. Thank goodness she's too little to fully understand though.
Do you mind if I ask what the d&c was like and what recovery was like? FS said to expect some bleeding and tummy aches after.
There was bleeding for the next 2 weeks. Quite a bit the first 2 days and then it eased to spotting. I had mild cramping the first 2 days. After that i only had cramping for another few days if i did lots of bending or lifted anything heavy.
I was told to expect AF 4-6 weeks later and i got it at 4 weeks on the dot. I knew i was getting AF as well coz the 2 days before i had massive migraines like never before coz all the hormones completely dropped.
The first AF was heavy for me since i have really light AF usually but i also realise now that that was because i still had a small amount of rpoc and had to wait another month for it to go away on its own.
The whole process wasn't painful, it was just very emotional as 1 day im still pregnant even though theres no heartbeat anymore and then 2 hours later im no longer pregnant.

Thanks for at info @Evelynmoo
i know what you mean as it was similar to that with the ectopic that I remember saying goodbye just before I went in and had the needle, even though there wasn't a definite finish time for it all. At least this shouldn't be as drawn out, I guess.
Whats rpoc? Also did they do any testing of the tissue? I asked FS what caused this, I always thought it was that the embryo was really just placental tissue but they had no idea it didn't have foetal tissue also. She said its most likely chromosomal and they send away the tissue for testing.
I asked the surgeon to do testing but he said 'it wasnt advisable'- I dont know why he said that but I was just too upset to question him. My FS wasnt impressed that he wouldnt test it. So god forbid that ever happens to me again but next time i will insist.
I thouht blighted ovum was that there was no feotal tissue, like no genetic material. Just like a chicken egg that doesnt turn into a chick. But i dont know that for sure.
