The coolest girl you would ever meet. Has humor and a deep sense of knowledge. Very friendly, but can kick someones ass when she needs to. Has real potential of a great future.

Jhoanna is the type of girl who is very kind. She cares for a lot of people but she can defend them too. She falls in love easily but there is always one that she loves the most and has the strongest connection to. She gives good advice. She has a lot of insecurities that she doesn't tell anyone about. She is kind hearted but she doesnt let people be rude to her. She gets attached to many people who she knows she will never meet usually because she is lonely. She can't deal with problems easily and she falls into depression a lot. If there comes a time where no one is there for her, she will surely fall into a deep depression.

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
My mom is a much better seamstress than I am. She does a ton of handwork though. She likes to cross stitch, do smocking, shadowwork, etc. She's also designed all the patterns we've released so far. She's had some of her designs published by Martha Pullen's Sew Beautiful Magazine. Our styles are completely different from each other. She did make a comment about maybe keeping it for herself but I know that won't happen because she has absolutely zero room for it. Her house is already packed! I doubt it will come out of the back of her van until it gets here.
Anyone looking for a Pink Atlas? http://sacramento.craigslist.org/clt/3582782125.html At least, I think it is pink?
Today at a resale shop, I saw a 1949 Singer 201 that is naked. It does have the bobbin, but no foot control and cord, and no cabinet or case. Do the foot control and cords cost very much to replace? It needs a three hole plug. Does anyone have one to spare??? I don't know how much they will be asking for it. I like it because it is supposed to have a larger throat and also had the ability to drop the feed dogs. It is able to be used without a base to sit upon, won't it? What else do I need to know to convince my hubby that it needs to go home to Indiana with me? any additional information on the 201, for or against is welcome!
They also had a 1952 Singer 128 with a shuttle and the matte brown finish. Since it is 3/4 size and I already have 2 99's, I don't see a need for it.
They had them both in the back room and won't be priced and put out for sale until Thursday when someone who works there will be there to check them out and price them. Thanks

The 201-2 is a great machine for quilting and other large projects. The potted motor doesn't lack anything for power. We're making a list of machines that are "keepers" and our 201-2 is at the top of the list. It's a very good machine.
Make sure how the one you're looking at is wired. They both use the same 3 prong cord connector block, but the portables are wired differently than the cabinet machines. Look at the rear of the cord block and make sure there isn't two wires cut off. If there is it was a cabinet model and will need to be rewired to prevent electrical problems.
It's fairly easy to fix, you just need to make sure.
The only source for decent cases I know of is this: { http://www.sewingpartsonline.com/sew...ine-cases.aspx }
I haven't yet, but I'm going to buy one of the universal cases: Carrying Case, Flat Bed #P60218. It has an adapter in it so it will work with full and 3/4 size cases. It's kind of expensive to my way of thinking, but I can't buy new wooden cases so I don't have a lot of choices.
Now, I am in the process on taking everything out of my Sphinx 127 treadle. I am going to put the 127 on a shelf in my sewing room and give the treadle to a friend who wants to make her 306 a treadle. I don't use the Sphinx much and I really want to be able to use the Adler! It will go in the office along with my Davis Vertical Feed and my Two Spools.
I am excited to get the Adler home!
FYI, your friend may have to make some adjustments to fit the 306 into the 127 treadle cabinet. The base of the 306 is thicker than the 127 and won't sit in the opening. The treadle belt holes may need to be routed out (made a little bit oval) for the treadle belt to function freely. I am putting my 306M into a Model 27 1893 treadle cabinet and these are to two issues that I discovered. The treadle top is currently with a friend who is doing the modifications.

It seems like a good product, although I drink a lot of tea and coffee so the effect is not very distinct on me.

These are all natural energizer pills to help give extra energy during a day. Unfortunately, it really didn't do much for me that a cup of coffee wouldn't. Maybe it takes awhile to build up in my system, maybe I should take 2 pills... But so far no increased focus, no extra energy. I guess the effects are different for everyone. Next time I will try to double up the dose to see a difference.

Hot Air's Top 40 for 2012: 21-30
posted at 12:31 pm on December 30, 2012 by Ed Morrissey
Once again, we're looking back at the Hot Air posts that garnered the most traffic in 2012. We had plenty of off-the-mark prognostication in this set, but a couple of surprises, too. Enjoy the trip down Memory Lane; we'll be back with 11-20 tomorrow.
- #30 – Letterman: Say, Obama's kind of lying about this GM bankruptcy thing, huh? – I'm not much of a fan of late-night TV comedy — but when you throw David Letterman, Rachel Maddow, and a soupçon of disillusionment into the mix, hilarity results. Or clarity, at least.
- #29 – Video: What a history lesson can do for an Occupier – What can a survivor of the Soviet Union teach an Occupier? Plenty, as this video proved, although it's still unclear whether the Occupier was capable of comprehending it all.
- #28 – 'Piss Christ' returns to New York along with 'Piss Moses' – "The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam," President Obama declared … but some NEA grant funding can belong to those who slander other religious figures.
- #27 – New Florida poll shows vindication of Eastwood Strategy – For a while, anyway, Floridians seemed to like Clint Eastwood's extemporaneous riff on Obama as an empty suit, er, chair.
- #26 – The Blaze: "Hustler" smears S.E. Cupp; Update:Planned Parenthood, Sandra Fluke denounce – "How do you shame Hustler?" Allahpundit wondered in this post about the latest degradation from Larry Flynt. Obviously, you don't, but this disgusting photoshop "fantasy" briefly resulted in the consensus that Flynt is a disgusting jerk, which is also nothing new.
- #25 – Angry old man yells at Paul Ryan for 90 minutes – I've watched political debates ever since the 1976 presidential contest, but I don't ever recall seeing anything as bizarre as Joe Biden's meltdown. Not even Dan Quayle's deer-in-the-headlights performance against Lloyd Bentsen was this bad … and neither had any impact at all on their elections, either.
- #24 – Michael Barone's prediction: Romney 315, Obama 223 – Well, a lot of us had irrational optimism in that final week.
- #23 – Fact-checking the factcheckers on Ryan's speech – If political prognosticators got their comeuppance in this cycle, so too should the "fact-check" industry. There seemed to be plenty of pronouncements of "facts" that turned out to be ill-informed opinions, and this was one of the worst.
- #22 – Open thread: The first debate – I don't have the time-trend stats on these posts, but I'd be willing to bet that the traffic on this started picking up steam in direct proportion to Obama's dissipation of momentum. This was the moment that made those later optimistic polls look so believable.
- #21 – Confirmed: Line-up of speakers at Democratic convention is simply terrible – And it was. When the final-night highlight is Joe Biden — who actually gave the best speech of the night — you know you have problems. Unfortunately, none of those problems were insurmountable for Obama in the end.

PatBeek.... If it works for you, don't change it. I had just always put the catch box much closer, and honestly, I never tried placing the catch box that far away, from the end of the screen cone funnel. I had always placed the end of the funnel right against the opening of the catch box.
oddfrank is one of my idols, and to a degree he is correct. In the early stages of the screen cone funnel method what you get is field worker bees, however, the longer the trap stays, you begin to get other bees as they exit for cleansing flights. rest, etc.
when I developed the so called Hogan Trapout Method, I had people tell me that all I would get is worker bees on their way to the fields, but, hundreds of trapouts later, by hundreds of beekeepers, we now know that isn't true. I rarely use the screen cone funnel method any more because I want the correct mix of bees to take a 3 to 6 pound start, very quickly (24 to 36 hours) and the screen cone method doesn't get that until late in the trapping sequence. Even then you are not sure of the mix that you have.

C-DOT seeks emergency funding for Highway 24 flood project
MANITOU SPRINGS, Colo. - Colorado's Department of Transportation said Monday it will ask for emergency funding to tackle flash flood problems along Highway 24 near Manitou Springs.
Friday's flash flood destroyed cars and claimed one life along the vulnerable stretch of Highway 24, which has turned into a flash flood hotspot during heavy rain.
"That kind of got our attention," said Rich Gonser, the project engineer for a flood project underway further west on Ute Pass.
The project is targeting five areas along Highway 24 to help divert water away from the road. The locations were selected after flash floods last summer. Crews installed boulders along the vulnerable hillsides to keep the ground from washing out. Crews will build stilling basins to sift mud and debris from flood water before it's directed in a ditch along Highway 24.
Gonser said the project is behind schedule due to recent rains.
"You'll get something done and then you have to come back and re-do it and kind of start all over again," said Gonser.
C-DOT wants to use emergency funding to expand the flood project.
"We have been discussing it here the last couple of rains, thinking we maybe need to do something more down there to get the water across the road," said Gonser. "We've tried a couple of things and it just wasn't quite enough."
Gonser said one possibility engineers will consider is installing a bigger cement culvert to divert flash flood water underneath Highway 24 near Manitou. C-DOT spokesperson Bob Wilson said the department is in the early stages of these discussions and engineers haven't determined a plan for the area yet.
C-DOT will ask the state's transportation commission for the emergency funding.
"If we get some emergency funding we can get a project in the works a lot quicker that way," said Gonser.
C-DOT did not have an estimate on the amount of emergency funding it will ask from the commission. The project already underway further west on Ute Pass costs $2.1 million.
Gonser said the project won't be completed before the next heavy rain. He hopes to see the project completed before the end of the season if C-DOT is granted emergency funding.

Discussion in 'Off The Beaten Track' started by peibeck, Sep 23, 2012.
Red carpet now on E!
Padma Lahski looking amazing in orange so far.
I tried to watch but all of the insane babble from rancic and seacrest was too painful to endure. I'll just have to flip thru Tom and Lorenzo tomorrow over coffee.
I think it's rainbow sherbert night for reality stars at the Emmys. Heidi Klum in a gorgeous seafoam, Padma Lakshi in orange. Just about everyone else in grey or black.
Not sure who that woman on ABC is, but she's nasal, annoying, and very me me me.
I agree the blather is terrible, but it's the best opportunity to see some the gowns.
Love Heidi Klum's robin-egg blue gown.
Except she's doing the "J-Lo stick my leg out while standing still" and looking silly in it.
If I had Heidi's leg, I'd stick them out too.
Christina Hendricks... I knew she had a very full chest... but uh... those look like they need their own congressional district!
Sophia Vegara is on ABC and she looks gorgeous as usual. Julianne Moore's dress is boring and hideous.
A reminder of the nominations:
There are a lot of shows I haven't seen.
I didn't think that Julianne's dress was boring. A dress that color can't be boring. Wouldn't have been my choice though.
Sofia's dress looked like it needed one more fitting.
Boardwalk Empire is about the only show I've seen that's nominated, and I'm furious at them for killing off the best character on the show. Now there's no one with any redeeming human value.....So I don't really give a damn about any of it.
Michael J. Fox He actually looks improved over what I've seen in the past. Really hoping his treatments are working for him.
You're not the only one. Same here, especially with the movies this past year.
I don't think that color is flattering on Julianne.
I love Stephen Colbert. It would be fun to hear an acceptance speech from him. But it's also fun to hear what he says when he loses.
Not sure I like Snow White's dress, though it's not boring.
how did anyone notice julianne's dress, i was so fixated on the hair should could have been naked
i guess they were going for retro glamour but i thought it looked like an apple fritter on her ear
Maybe the dress was the granny apple and her hair the fritter?
Is Revenge going to be on at the same time as The Good Wife this season?
that's so much boob.
I could not talk to Christina and keep my eyes on her face. Most women built like her have reduction surgeries these days.
I think Christina just keeps choosing the wrong dresses for her boobs.
Love Edie Falco's dress.
LOVE Edie Falco's dress!
Did Kate Winslet wear a dress similar to Edie's. I feel like I've seen that dress worn a couple of times before, but without the belt.
And I'm mad that Michael Emerson and Robert Carlyle didn't get nominated. Let's boycott!
I don't like the black stuff on Lara's dress.
I would have been too, until I watched Breaking Bad in a marathon this summer. Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul both are my choices now. Only Damien Lewis comes close for me.
Why is Martha Plimpton not nominated for best actress in a comedy series? She's the winner for me.
"You look like a real housewife!"
She did win for best guess actress for The Good Wife, though.
Who's the actrss with the cake? I don't even recognize her. Also don't know who the red head is.
The redhead is Christina Hendricks
The naked girl is Lena Dunham from girls

Sand and Golf Mingle Nicely on the Jersey Shore
Stockton Seaview Hotel and Golf Club • Galloway, NJ
Escape Kit
- A One-Night Stay for Two in a Deluxe King or Deluxe Double Room on Sundays through Thursdays ($109), Fridays ($139), or Saturdays ($179)
- $25 Resort Credit
- Complimentary Upgrade to Executive King or Junior Executive Room Based on Availability
At first, your golf game and a beach day seem disparate: One strives for low-numbered scores and a green jacket, while the other is ideal with high-digit temperatures and a bathing suit. But look closer, and you'll see that both are exercises in laid-back serenity.
Whether you're competing on the pristine fairway of an award-winning course, or lounging on the sands of the nearby Atlantic coast, shoot for your desired comfort level with an Escape to the Stockton Seaview Hotel and Golf Club in Galloway, New Jersey.
Score a hole-in-one-night stay in a deluxe king or deluxe double room on a Sunday through Thursday ($109), and upgrade to a junior executive room or an executive king room upon availability. If you'd rather putt-putt down the Garden State Highway for an overnight stay on the weekend, cart your suitcase to this expansive hotel on a Friday ($139) or a Saturday ($179).
Set on nearly 700 acres along Reeds Bay, just eight miles from Atlantic City, the Stockton Seaview Hotel and Golf Club champions a course between its storied background and recently renovated features. Its Bay Course once supported the spikes of President Harding, and the Oval Room welcomed Grace Kelly to her 16th birthday party. And while Bob Dylan and the Rolling Stones have long since checked out, your rock star room offers free wireless Internet and a flat-screen TV.
Once you arrive, tour the resort's satellite gallery of the Noyes Museum of Art, have a ball in the indoor or outdoor pool, or indulge in a treatment at the Elizabeth Arden Red Door Spa. The next day, tee off at the Bay Course or the Pines Course for a friendly 18 holes with your plus one.
After lunch at the brick-lined Grille Room—where you can use your $25 credit toward a crab cake sandwich or an artisan BLT with french fries—intentionally aim for the bunkers when you spend a sunny beach day along the Jersey Shore.
Stay on par with this Escape, and you'll feel like you're at the top of the leader board.
"Beautiful property located just outside the craziness of Atlantic City, but close enough to make it convenient. Lovely classic décor, and the staff was friendly and welcoming."-- TripAdvisor

La Aurora
Although I do enjoy the La Aurora Preferidos, I can't afford to enjoy them regularly, so I usually lean on the trusty Robusto to get me through. I've probably burned 7-8 boxes over the past year, and haven't been let down yet. My current box is no different. Every cigar performs perfectly. Slow, cool burn that stays even regardless of how poorly I light the foot. It's almost impossible to find a soft spot in any of the cigars and the draw of each has been a touch above effortless. The vein-free wrappers are so silky and smooth it almost hurts to clip the flawlessly applied cap. Flavor-wise, this cigar shows a lot of character. The Cameroon wrapper gives off soft hints of nuts that prepare your palate for a buttery smooth tanginess and woody aftertaste. These flavors remain constant right up to the end, leading the cigar into a creamy, robust finish complemented by the slightest bit of pepper. Even without the fancy finish, this cigar will satisfy the palate no matter what your preference in strength may be. The deliciously complex flavors coat the palate instantly upon lighting, never hinting at fading into the ever so boring world of one-dimensional Dominicans, while the immaculate construction allows you to fully enjoy this fantastic handmade every time you light one up. I strongly recommend you try these if you haven't already.

Chat will be open for this game until 1:00 AM EST Saturday morning.
I can't believe I'm going to miss the revenge tour chat! I hope someone posts to the game thread with a game report. I am coaching at an all-day all-eve diving/swimming meet with my high school girls. I sure hate to miss any Pistons game and Pistons chat.:( Boo Hiss. Go Pistons!
I'll try to remember to post the chat log.
BEN RULES!!!!!!!!!!............i like that guy playing fwd for Minny...whats hisname?
I don't see the option for chat on the website. Please let me know how to get there is anyone sees this. Thanx
People with NBA League Pass, is this game being shown?
user the quick links on the bar
No the only games being broadcast on NBA league pass tonight is the Celts n Cavs an the knicks Vs nets.:( And Moscow vs the Sixers on NBA TV
From chat (apparently I am the only person with the game on TV, and IM IN CANADA!)
The game was on my televison (WXSP, Grand Rapids) channel 18. Its the fourth quarter and the Pistons have the lead.
I don't know who caught this, but they are now calling Maxiell the Barhma Bull, which as far as I know was originated by linwood, Mercury or someone else on the board.
Player of the game...
Wow, thats cool! I didn't come up with it, but I would like to take credit for instantly recognizing it's genius.
From the boxscore it looks like I was wrong about JMax, I hope he keeps proving me wrong.

My Grades Rip, B- Bad handles, active but not particularly sharp Chauncey, A Solid, not flashy Tayshaun, B Learning to coast like a true veteran... Sheed, C+ Stupid tech, setting a bad example for the kids. KG was average and looked 2 or 3x better than Rasheed. Nazr, B+ Hustle, effort. Had few plays run for him, and had zero rebounds in the first half. Hit a nice rolling hook while cutting through the lane. _________________________________________ Delfino, B+ Good energy, hustle. Great passer. Not particularly outstanding tonight. Flip Murray, A Really aggressive outing, had the play of the night, a crossover dribble drive with a slam. His attacking style compliments Delfino in transition. Some passes were a little scary. Lindsey Hunter, B Does just enough to earn more playing time. Hit some jumpers and keyed several transition scoring opportunities. If he could feed the post, Maxiell would have had 20+. Antonio McDyess, C+ Too many ticky tack fouls, lousy tech arguing a call (he was right however), starting to get more involved in transition. Jason Maxiell, A- His only weakness was FT shooting. He was ultra powerful, suprisingly quick, ran almost every fastbreak as a trailer. Low rebounding #s are a team wide phenomenon, and certainly not worth punishing an undersized PF over IMO. Ronald Dupree, F Saw limited time at the end of the first and second halves. His lack of a jumper and tendency to overdribble is why he cannot get on the court. In years past the 15th man could be a hustle guy, but with this team playing hoping to play deep this year, Ron's simply too one dimensional to fill at 13 while Amir Johnson and Will Blalock go to basketball school. Good outing for the coaching staff to evaluate. The Wolves suck, and one of their starters would have a hard time making the Pistons as a reserve. Note: Terry Porter was glued to Flip's right hip, very animated on the bench and involved during timeouts. I graded players totally on my observations, biases and certainly on a sliding scale based upon what I have seen from them thus far. Flip Murray's "A" would have been a Rip Hamilton B+.
I didn't see the game since I don't live in Canada (wtf?), but judging by the box score, Delfino didn't do much. 24 minutes, 1 for 6, 0 assists? That sounds more like a C- for a guard. 2 offensive boards... I'll assume those were his own shots. Sheed was 5-8 with 2 treys! And JMax looks like he wants to join the party this year. Flip Murray had a great game except for the 5 turnovers (probably due to general sloppiness of the game). And Nazr was solid again. This is a very interesting start to the season. If Nazr, Flip, JMax, and Delfino are for real, then I am sold on this year's chances.
Delfino played excellent defense and enables Flip and Hunter when he is on the floor. The stuff that you don't get in the box. It's all about Flip Sr's ability to judge players based on intangible contributions for Carlos.
i was disapointed we barely got to see foye until the 4th. why aren't they getting him the ball more? even that other rookie got more touches than him...

What is the role of sulfites and why should I care? If I was making my own wine/mead, how are they added?

Texas School District Approves RFID Tag Trial for Student Attendance
Tiffany Kaiser

(Source: nowtheendbegins.com)
Some parents are worried about the privacy of their children
A school district in San Antonio, Texas is looking to track some of its students using Radio Frequency Identification System (RFID) tags next year.
Northside Independent School District hopes to
use RFID tags
in two of its schools in order to help protect its students and also increase revenue.
RFID tags are ID cards that track the location of the holder. Northside Independent School District wants to take part in a trial next year where John Jay High School and Anson Jones Middle School students will carry the RFID tags at all times. This is about 6,290 students total.
"We want to harness the power of the technology to make schools safer, know where our students are all the time in school, and increase revenues," said Pascual Gonzalez, district spokesman. "Parents expect that we
always know where their children are
, and this technology will help us do that."
Parents in the school district have had varied reactions to the news. Some have been supportive while others question the need for such invasive technology.
"I would hope teachers can help motivate
students to be in their seats
instead of the district having to do this," said Margaret Luna, a parent in the district. "But I guess this is what happens when you don't have enough money."
RFID tags could help the school district offset cuts in state funding because attendance plays a huge role in determining revenue. With a more exact attendance count via RFID tags, Northside could receive a total of $1.7 million next year from higher attendance and Medicaid reimbursements for busing special education students. If the trial proves successful, RFID tags could go districtwide and bring in a much larger payoff.
The district will pay $525,065 to deploy the trial next year, then another $136,005 annually to run it. Each RFID tag is $15, which students will have to pay if they lose it.
While the payoff could be great for the district, privacy is the main concern of parents. The district says students will only be tracked while they are physically in the school, and only authorized administrative officials will have access to RFID information. However, there are concerns regarding kidnapping if someone were to
hack into the system
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) battled a California school in 2005 for using such technology, citing worries over identity theft and kidnapping.
The Northside school board approved the RFID program last Tuesday after a long debate over privacy and potential revenue increases.

With about 20,000 people expected to attend University of Colorado at Boulder commencement exercises May 16 at 9:30 a.m. in Folsom Stadium, carpooling and alternative transportation are recommended for anyone planning to be on campus.
The Hop shuttle and RTD buses will be on regular schedules that day.
Visitors are advised to arrive early because many parking spaces will be occupied by staff and faculty during regular working hours from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., the first day of summer hours.
To ease the parking shortage, regular permit holders in four lots have been asked to park in alternative locations. Affected lots are 360 next to Duane Physics, 378 next to Folsom Stadium, 390 behind Dal Ward Athletic Center and 391 northeast of the stadium. Permit holders in lots 360 and 378 may park on Franklin Field or lot 358 next to Libby and Brackett Halls on May 16 only.
Staff and faculty who have permits for people with disabilities in the four affected lots will not be asked to park their vehicles elsewhere.
Parking also will be allowed on the football practice field off Folsom Street just north of Boulder Creek, weather permitting.
Commencement parking for the elderly and disabled will be in lots 360 and 378 with drop off and pickup at the southeast side of the stadium on Colorado Avenue. No parking permits are required and anyone with special needs should inform the parking attendants that close-in parking is required.
People in wheelchairs should enter the stadium at gate 1 next to Balch Fieldhouse to be seated on a platform near the press box or along the concourse.
Most of the parking spaces available to visitors will be in lot 436 north of the Coors Events/Conference Center and the Regent Drive Autopark on Regent Drive near Colorado Avenue. Parking will be free at all metered spaces, but regular fees will be charged for the Euclid Avenue Autopark and lot 306 on Regent Drive.
Congestion is expected to ease after about 11:30 a.m. when the ceremony ends.

The A1C test is a common blood test used to diagnose type 1 and type 2 diabetes and then to gauge how well you're managing your diabetes. The A1C test goes by many other names, including glycated hemoglobin, glycosylated hemoglobin, hemoglobin A1C and HbA1c.
The A1C test result reflects your average blood sugar level for the past two to three months. Specifically, the A1C test measures what percentage of your hemoglobin — a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen — is coated with sugar (glycated). The higher your A1C level, the poorer your blood sugar control and the higher your risk of diabetes complications.
The glucose challenge test measures your body's response to sugar (glucose). The glucose challenge test is done during pregnancy to screen for gestational diabetes — diabetes that develops during pregnancy.
The glucose challenge test is done in two steps. First you drink a sugary solution. One hour later, your blood sugar level is measured. The results of the glucose challenge test indicate whether you might have gestational diabetes.
If the test results are above normal, you'll need to have further testing to determine the diagnosis.
The glucose tolerance test, also known as the oral glucose tolerance test, measures your body's response to sugar (glucose). The glucose tolerance test can be used to screen for type 2 diabetes. More commonly, a modified version of the glucose tolerance test is used to diagnose gestational diabetes — a type of diabetes that develops only during pregnancy.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized room or tube. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a well-established treatment for decompression sickness, a hazard of scuba diving. Other conditions treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy include serious infections, bubbles of air in your blood vessels, and wounds that won't heal as a result of diabetes or radiation injury.
In a hyperbaric oxygen therapy chamber, the air pressure is increased to three times higher than normal air pressure. Under these conditions, your lungs can gather more oxygen than would be possible breathing pure oxygen at normal air pressure.
Your blood carries this oxygen throughout your body. This helps fight bacteria and stimulate the release of substances called growth factors and stem cells, which promote healing.

I've found FOR CERTAIN that my two hives have distinctly different personalities. One pretty much doesn't mind WHAT I'm doing, inspecting, making structure improvements, etc.
The other doesn't like any messing around and doesn't hesitate to let us know. Really funny. I have painted each hive a different color; one yellow and one lavendar. My husband
says "you'd be cranky too if somebody made you live in a lavendar house'. Sula, MT
Your husband is a wise man Cute post.
We just got our first hive last week. Weather was good enough to inspect and observe and they just seemed to leave us alone (whew!). However, with that said, we are looking into beesuits for when its time to start opening the top up, etc. Any suggestions on clothing? Also, we are in Northern Texas! Thanks, Tracey.
I've got 12 full hives and 4 nucs and been working them since June of this year and have found that every hive has its own personality. I have 6 that will let me do certain things but the rest have to be smoked to get into them. I have a lot of Russian bees and they just don't like to be bothered but the Italian bees seems to not mind me messing with them.
I now have two hives and the cut out that's working on becoming a hive. Each one has its own distinct personality with the cut out acting like they could care about nothing!
I had good luck on eBay for my bee suit. There was a purple be suit that nobody wanted shipping and all was $50.

National Jurist Ranks Wayne Law High with Regard to Starting Salaries
DETROIT (Jan. 25, 2008) – Prospective law students have yet another reason to apply to Wayne State University Law School. In addition to offering students cutting-edge legal theory and real-world practical skills from an internationally recognized faculty, graduates from Wayne Law earn higher starting salaries than graduates from most other law schools, according to a recent feature article in The National Jurist.
The January 2008 publication ranked the starting salaries earned by graduates of 156 law schools from across the country. Wayne Law graduates earned starting salaries higher than graduates from 60 percent of the other law schools.
Among law schools in Michigan, Wayne Law's starting salaries, ranked No. 62 nationally, were second to only the University of Michigan Law School, which was ranked No. 4. Michigan State University College of Law and Thomas Cooley Law School were ranked No. 77 and No. 151 nationally, respectively. According to the publication, Wayne Law graduates earn on average $70,808 immediately after law school.
Wayne State University Law School has served Michigan and beyond since its inception as Detroit City Law School in 1927. Located in Detroit's re-energized historic cultural center, the Law School remains committed to student success and features modern lecture and court facilities, multi-media classrooms, a 250-seat auditorium, and the Arthur Neef Law Library, which houses one of the nation's 30 largest legal collections. Taught by an internationally recognized faculty, Wayne Law students experience a high-quality legal education via a growing array of hands-on curricular offerings, five live-client clinics, and access to well over 100 internships with local and non-profit entities each year. Its 11,000 living alumni, who work in every state of the nation and more than a dozen foreign countries, include leading members of the local, national and international legal communities.

Robo Carpet Calls from 425-320-5163
Original post made by On Do Not Call List, Another Pleasanton neighborhood, on Jun 11, 2013
This time I stayed on and asked who they were. Lady claimed they are from Carpet Care in Brentwood. No such company found on Google.
When I asked her how they got my number she just hung up.
What kind of service do you expect from someone like that?
Perhaps if everyone made them use a real person, this would not be worth their time.

Web Link
says they are in state of Washington and a known robo caller.

Apparently they are also Stevens Foot and Ankle.
There's a note: They claim to be "TheCarpetCare.com", with an office in Hemstead Long Island, but they are not.
Please tell me: What can we do to stop this?
Who do we tell?
Where's the enforcement?

For DNCL -- good luck. I have spoken several times with Swalwell's office and the answer was something like, "yeah, we hate those calls too, nothing we can do about them". So my question is this -- do we have a law designed to prevent this or not? If so, why is NO ONE willing to enforce it?
I have been told that the FCC is charged with enforcement, yet they never do anything no matter how many complaints are filed. I think we need a full blown public trashing of those in Congress who wrote the law and have chosen to stand by and do nothing. I am contacting all of my representatives and when I have gone through the list I plan to publish their non-responses. Think you want my vote next election? Then DO SOMETHING about enforcement of laws that are already on the books.

Sound interested. Ask questions like Can you get out spots?
Get as much information as you can. Ask how to schedule an appointment.
Then quickly say: Please Hold, I'll be right back!
See how long you can make them wait!
Do NOT give your name or any information that they can scam.

One thing you can do is to buy a police whistle. Then when the person on the other end start to speak, have the whistle in your mouth and blow as vigorously as possible right into the phone. Enough people do that and these bung-wads won't be able to get anyone to work for them.
It's clear the morons in the Federal Government that are supposed to be enforcing Do Not Call are doing nothing.

Make sure your telephone number is registered with the National Do Not Call Registry with the Federal Trade Commission. Once registered, note that your phone number is permanently registered (scammers may try to tell you that you need to re-register). Make your complaints about telemarketers to: Web Link
As you can imagine, the FTC is inundated with complaints and probably goes after the companies with the largest number of complaints. The latest FTC court case scored a large penalty against the telemarketing company: Web Link
You can also block unwanted phone calls with most newer phones now.
Good Luck!

I went ahead and booked a carpet cleaning appointment for them to go to a vacant house. I waited up the street and watched them park accross the street. It was a man in his early 30's driving a small older model red truck which was UNMARKED. He came out and knocked on the door a few times. I was able to get a license plate number. That license plate number is 3P0G927 (California Plate).
After waiting in front of that house for several minutes I received a call on my cell phone. The number they called me with was 818-534-6825. They said that the carpet cleaner is waiting in front of your house and I told them that they have the wrong number.
I tried doing a reverse lookup on that number online at whitepages.com and all I can find out at the moment is that the number registered in Northridge, CA. Unfortunately my cell phone number was not on the Do-Not-Call list so I cant report them myself but hopefully someone out there can use this information to report them. Email me at email@example.com if I can be of assistance.

Shenna Bellows knows she's facing an uphill battle to unseat US Senator Susan Collins, the Republican from Caribou. Collins, an incumbent who enjoys her carefully crafted reputation as a moderate conservative, handily beat former US representative Tom Allen in 2008. She was instrumental in brokering a compromise to end the government shutdown earlier this month (a shutdown she actually voted for before she tried to end it, but nevermind that). She has more than two million dollars in the bank, which won't be depleted before the general election unless she faces a right-wing primary challenger, and one has yet to emerge. In light of all this, a friend recently advised Bellows to "enjoy the freedom of being the underdog."
But while Collins is a formidable opponent, she will face a legitimate challenge from Bellows, who just stepped down as executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Maine, a post she held for nearly a decade. The 38-year-old Hancock native presided over the state chapter of the ACLU as it achieved significant victories, including requiring police to obtain probable-cause warrants before tracking individuals through their cell phones, marriage equality for same-sex couples, and rejection of the Real ID Act in Maine. Some of these efforts have won the Democrat unlikely champions in the form of those who lean libertarian.
Bellows, who formally launched her campaign at the Rising Tide Brewery in Portland this Wednesday at noon, recently hit a $50,000 fundraising goal, but admits this aspect of campaigning isn't her favorite. "One of the things I'd like to change if elected is our campaign finance system," she says. "There are enormous barriers to entry. People like me don't usually run for federal office. And that's why we have a Congress of millionaires instead of average people, and that's a problem."
When it comes to her millionaire opponent, Bellows speaks adroitly, but with pointed criticism.
"I respect Susan Collins's work ethic," Bellows says, acknowledging the senator's long tenure of public service — the year Collins was sworn into the US Senate, 1997, is the same year Bellows graduated from Middlebury College in Vermont with a degree in international politics and economics. "But in those nearly 20 years we've experienced an economic crisis, a constitutional crisis, and an environmental crisis. I'm interested in working in all three of those areas to restore economic fairness, restore our Constitutional freedoms, and address, in a significant way, the looming crisis of climate change."
The Phoenix sat down with Bellows at her home in Manchester, just outside Augusta, to talk about those issues and many more. Here is an edited version of that conversation.
Under what circumstances did you decide to run? I made the decision to run when I was working on the cell-phone privacy bill in the legislature. We had this amazing coalition of Democrats, Republicans, Independents, and Greens; some of our harshest opponents were some of my best friends. But what we were able to do was pull this really diverse coalition together and be one of two states in the country to pass groundbreaking cell-phone privacy legislation and we were one of five veto overrides [in the state legislature]. One of the ACLU philosophies that I have taken to heart is the philosophy of "no permanent friends and no permanent enemies."

Haircare Myths
Urban myths aren't limited to horror movies. In fact, belief in just one or two of the hair care myths below could make your mane pretty scary indeed. Fear not… let's debunk them now!
More shampoo = cleaner hair
– Not true! Don't get yourself into an unnecessary lather and waste shampoo. Just a squirt (about the size of a quarter) is usually enough for long hair. Very long hair may take a little more. Our solid shampoo bars last for 50- 80 washes; evidence that a little does go a long way. The secret to clean, healthy hair is not the amount of lather your shampoo creates; it's the ingredients in your shampoo. Read the labels, learn about the ingredients and know why they're there.
You must shampoo every day
– Not true! We sell shampoo so we could certainly benefit from keeping this falsehood to ourselves (but we believe in honesty). Shampooing too frequently can harm hair and lead to excess oil production. If you have extremely oily hair and shampoo twice a day, cut back to once. If you shampoo daily, try every other day instead. It can take two to three weeks for your scalp to adjust, but the benefits will be worth the bother. Wear your hair up or use a stylish headband to keep it under control until the awkward phase passes.
You have to change shampoos frequently
– Not true! While your mane may have its own quirky personality, hair does not get bored and demand change just for the sake of change. What can happen though is a build up of residue from conditioners and other styling products (non-LUSH of course). This buildup can cause hair to become droopy and lifeless. Use a clarifying shampoo like I Love Juicy, Rehab, or Big every once in a while to liven things up.
Oily hair doesn't need to be conditioned – Not true! No matter how oily your scalp, a conditioner is necessary to replace lost moisture, especially if you use a clarifying shampoo. All hair types need conditioner; just be mindful of how you apply it. In general, the ends need much more conditioning than the roots. Try conditioning using the 'ears down' method. Start from the ends of your hair and work your way up to your ears. Only condition from the ears up if your hair is particularly dry.
Rinse-out conditioners don't help
– Not true! Conditioning is an important part of a healthy hair care routine. Rinse-out conditioners applied to your hair right after washing leave moisturizing proteins and other nutritious ingredients on the hair shaft so it feels softer, looks shinier, has better condition and resists damage.
Conditioner helps repair split ends
– Not true! Only a haircut can get rid of split ends. However, conditioner does smooth down the hair cuticle, giving the appearance of better condition. You can help avoid damage in the first place by using the right conditioner for your needs.

We rented a radial extractor last year, Maxant 3100, I think. We were excited to use it as a radial extractor, but it really didn't work well, so we finished using it as a tangential extractor. We loved it, and I've since looked into buying it or the power 20F. I totally get that it was probably user error. In talking to a local store, I asked what the secret was, and he said you have to let them spin for at least 30 minutes.
I did a search on here, but is there a thread about how to use radial extractors? I get that experiences vary, with honey thickness, temp etc, but how long should I expect to run each set of frames? While one set is spinning, we can uncap the next, but what do you do with the frames, between uncapping and extracting? Put them back into supers?

Maybe Bach's plan about how to handle those Royal Guards is where those Special War Potentials comes in ? HE wants to take Ichigo and those other SWPs so that they can help him with that plan . just a random thought .
And yes , we need better translations for these things .

If i might add to that, Ichigo's Bankai is kind of unique. the first time he fought Bakuya, he said his Bankai isn't really a bankai or didn't look like it. I think this can somewhat support what you are saying here as well.
Although Isshin could be related to Ichigo or be his father, as you said, it's Kubo's Manga. He could very well give us another explanation as why Ichigo and Isshin have similar Bankai's that doesn't have to make Isshin his father. Since it's unlikely and unpredictable, it's unique and good imo. It's basically not cliche if it's new.
Another thing i wanted to add to support your theory, is the fact that The first thing Juah Bach did was that he went after Aizen who also supposedly knew a lot about Ichigo's past ( maybe an experiment as you said). And when he refused to help Juah Bach he said, he killed Aizen if i remember correctly.

In any case, for now, I believe that Bach calling Ichigo "son" doesn't really mean he's his father. Hopefully, we won't have to wait too long before finding out the truth behind Ichigo's birth.

the war potential thing could use some embelishment, but i guess we have to wait until we find out who all 5 are to know what it actually means. all we do know is that 'potential' means exactly that. it doesn't mean that the people are particularly strong, since we saw kenpachi lose off screen to bach and was a disappointment to him

I read it again and yes, he left him there to be in the prison but he did kinda destroyed that place when he was there, so in a way i guess an attempt to kill him ? Yes, my bad. He didn't kill him .
Anyways going back and reading it again, i think Ichigo is the key factor here. He is somewhat related to Juah bach imo. When Juah bach told yamamoto about having gone to meet Aizen, the expresion on Yamamoto's face changed. Imo these are hinting toward Ichigo.
As For Kenpachi losing, he lost with a regular Zanpakuto . He was strong enough to defeat three of the quincies who were basically easily defeating captain levels. maybe if he used a Shikai or Even Bankai, it wouldn't be as easy to steal his bankai.
But you do have a point. They don't really have to be strong per se. I agree with that.

The whole arrancar arc.
He basically should be dead about 5 times.
After all that he comes back and beats Aizen an opponent thats somehow managed to troll the entire Soul Society its pretty much bogus. Now after all that he's a quincy. Its like every arc the guy becomes more and more ridiculous. At least with naruto he's done some sembiance of training him isnt so bad Ichigo is nuts

I wonder what's going to happen next. I suspect the zero squad to arrive within the next couple of chapters and ask a lot of questions. There's no doubt Aizen will play a role in this arc in some fashion and Kubo will probably elaborate more on the war potentials. With that in mind, Zaraki may experience some more character development. I wonder who the others are going to be, though, and I wonder what role Ishida will play in all of this.

From where I see it, Ishida's are redundant after this revelation. Apart from possibly training Ichigo in his quincy powers I see no role for them. Unless Uryu is one of the War potentials - but that would mean significant contributions to this arc from the other two(Chad, Orihime) sidekicks too.

It wouldn't be surprising that Ichigo mother was Ryūken's sister, could explain why those 2 families are pictured since a long time to have some sort of deep bond/former bond linking them.
I also think the "my son.." is just a figure of speak.
BTW he got trolled by Aizen and was surprised greatly, zero squad seem to be taken seriously by them.

I honestly dont think that Bach is trying to say hes Ichigos father, or at least, I hope not. After I calmed myself down (from both yelling and laughing at the very notion) I thought that maybe Bach was using the term son in a general sense. For example, We are all the sons and daughters of the world. Generic-ness. Especially sense, it seems, Bach has just figured out that Ichigo is part Quincy.
But, that seemed too benign for someone hell bent on bring Ichigo back to base. Then I wondered, would if Bach is Ichigos grandfather? I know it seems farfetched, but Bach knew that Masaki was a Qunicy and hasnt tried to kill Ichigo either time theyve foughtonly been bent on subduing him. Plus he is like a thousand years old (or more) I prefer the idea that he had a daughter that fell in love with a soul reaper, was disowned (or she left) and ended up dying protecting her littler half-breed baby. But I dont know if it would add up with the already established (--hah!--like Kubo cares about that) plot points and character development.
The only other alternative I could come up with is just taking what Bach said at face value. And that just makes this story so much more confusing. Like how did Ichigo become a soul reaper in the first place, if he is 100% Quincy? I could still seem him having a hollow side, but being able to manifest a soul reaper side (even a fullbringer) becomes extremely difficult to imagine. It opens more questions than solves them and basically destroys any or all of the previous continuity this story had (which, for the most part, wasn't much).
But thats why I came up with alternative 1 and 2 because number 3 makes me scream and cry at the same time, and Im past that with Bleach. Im past that ! I dont think that Kubo will make Bach Ichigo's father (Kubo might try to lead on with that idea for a couple of chapters because he does enjoy a good troll) but I think it will end up alternative number 1; number 2 is just a fun idea to play with.
More puzzling for me was the comment about Aizen in this chapter. Aziens ability to mess with time, space, smell, ext. all extend to the use of his sword, so how did Aizen mess with the time? Unless he was using the hogyoku, which I guess could work too. But to me, this kind of hinted at the fact that maybejust maybeBach released Aizen before he got his answer. But then again, I have to remember the hax-crystal.

okay i have theory about bach and ichigo, isshin is ichigo's father and his mother was human but quincy's can be considered human but we haven't talked about her parentage it can be highly likely that bach isn't his father but is his grandfather because considering how bach and genryusei knew each other personal as if they fought countless times before, despite how he looks he could be as old as genryusei, along his calling ichigo his son could further relate to this

The Spot: Cancer Bats
Hardcore punk band Cancer Bats are kicking off their world tour this month and let us in on what it's like living on the road.
Hardcore punk band Cancer Bats have released their newest record, Dead Set on Living, and have kicked off their tour as of this month. We wondered what it would be like to spend a day partying with a band like this that tours the world, so we asked them about living and drinking on the road. Be sure to check out Cancerbats.com for all tour dates and follow @CancerBats on Twitter for insights from their travels.
When you're playing gigs in America, which cities do you look forward to partying in the most?
Portland, Oregon, is one of our favorite towns to play and hang out. They have the best coffee in the whole country at Stumptown, where they roast some serious beans and make an amazing Americano. Playing shows there always rules, the kids who come out to shows are rad and tear shit up!
Austin, Texas, is another favorite of ours. The punk scene there is crazy and our good friends in the Krum Bums always take good care of us and make sure the shows rip! El Chilito is the best hang for good coffee and breakfast tacos. Red7 is the bar we always play and everyone who works there rules.
Minneapolis is an amazing town that we all love rolling through. One bar we go to every single time we're there is the Triple Rock Social Club. It's an amazing punk rock bar that has a great venue attached to it. They have amazing food and the jukebox fuckin' can't be beat. Every band that plays there knows they're going to be well fed or blackout drunk or both. When we played there with Gallows in '08 it was hands down the best show of the whole tour. NOFX even wrote a song about it!
What bars and nightclubs are you sure to hit up when you're touring?
When we're in New York there's this amazing bar called Saint Vitus that we rage at every time we're in town! It's run by the raddest dudes and any day of the week it's the craziest party! They have bands that play there all the time and the whole place explodes. Easily the greatest bar in all of NYC, if not the whole US of A!
Anytime we're in Vancouver, BC, we always stop by The Morrissey to hang out. It's a nice chilled-out bar with an awesome vibe and tons of solid bros that hang out there. Sometimes after being in loud metal bars every single night of the tour it's nice to be in a spot that's a little more relaxed and you don't have to yell over the music.
Santiago in Leeds, England, is our hang whenever we're on tour there. All our friends work there and we can hang late. It's an awesome gnarly bar that plays some epic tunes. Sometimes when you're on tour you want to go to a loud place; you have to yell over top of the music and get really rowdy with a pack of BMX dudes.
Which city has the sexiest girls?
Europe holds it down in the babe department. Prague, Barcelona, Copenhagen all have very beautiful people. The lifestyle over there is so carefree and healthy. Just hanging out stress-free, having a good time, and living life makes for way more babes.
What is your craziest story from the road?
I remember once we were playing Summer Sonic festival in Japan. The whole thing is gigantic, with Beyoncé headlining and tons of different stages for metal, indie rock, punk, electro, and anything else you can think of. The crazy thing is if you're playing the fest you can go anywhere, security would just smile and let you through. So we all went to check out Lady Gaga's show and we were able to stand right onstage for her whole set. Not even off to the side, we were standing beside the drum riser just chilling, watching the whole thing. If that's not crazy enough, I look over and Fred Durst is standing there right beside us checking out Gaga! It's those moments that you think about and it blows your mind. I never thought I would be in Japan watching Gaga with Fred Durst and his whole crew, wildness!
Are there any places you're looking forward to playing that you haven't been before?
We're always really stoked to go further and further east in Europe. I love playing in places where they don't get a lot of shows and people are so pumped to have heavy bands playing. The shows are always nuts and everyone there is super friendly, it rules. This summer we're going to Romania and I can't wait, I know that show is going to be insane!
What was your first Playboy?
I remember my neighbor's dad had a whole bunch of Playboys that we would steal when we were young. Classic kid stuff, going to the tree fort to look at boobs with your buddies.
What albums or songs are on your tour playlist?
Bands we have been listening to nonstop in the van are Pilgrims, Ghost, Early Graves, Narrows, All Pigs Must Die, Clutch, Mastodon, Red Fang, Sex Tears, and Paul Simon's Graceland. Lots of hours driving around the world, we're always getting new records and bands to pass the time. Luckily there's tons of rad shit coming out lately, it's a great time for metal and hardcore.
Who is your favorite Playmate?
I know she's not a Playmate, but when Drew Barrymore was in the magazine in the mid-'90s I remember that being a huge deal. I went to an all-boys school and everyone was freaking out, talking about it, and trying to look up photos on the ancient internet at the time. People finally got copies of the magazine and everyone had the hugest crush for the rest of the year.
Talk a bit about your new tour; anything in particular you're looking forward to?
This summer we're really lucky; we get to play a lot of amazing European festivals. The shows are always awesome and you get taken care of very well, it's the best. They're always really fun because we have lots of friends' bands that are playing them and then lots of bands we don't get a chance to see often. So you can hang out with your best homies and watch Refused in France! No better way to spend the summer.

On December 12, 1899, Paul Adelbert Bigsby was born in Elgin, Illinois. Paul was many things: a successful motorcycle racer, expert pattern-maker, machinist, inventor, poet, guitar-maker, and musician. Most widely known for inventing the Bigsby True Vibrato tailpiece, Paul also made the first modern solidbody electric guitar for musician Merle Travis in 1948. Paul Bigsby was the "man who could build anything".
Following are a couple of excerpts from The Story of Paul Bigsby: Father of the Modern Electric Solidbody Guitar by Andy Babiuk. This well-researched book tells the fascinating story of Paul's life and work and is loaded with hundreds of photos and illustrations.
"The musicians who played their custom-made Bigsby guitars helped shape the core of modern electric-guitar playing. Merle Travis's inspiration gave rise to the Chet Atkins style, and both men were the fathers of the Scotty Moore and early rockabilly style. These players in turn heavily influenced the guitarists of the British Invasion and almost every rock player who has ever picked up a guitar since then."
"P.A. Bigsby achieved nothing less than changing the world of American music. He was a man of vision and extraordinary imagination who possessed the abilities and sense of craft to turn that vision and imagination into a reality."
To learn more about Paul Bigsby, get a copy of The Story of Paul Bigsby today and visit Bigsby.com.
You can also check out the article in the December issue of Premier Guitar magazine featuring Paul Bigsby. In a series of articles entitled "Forgotten Heroes", light is shed on legendary figures who have contributed great things to the world of music though their stories may not be widely known. This article details contributions made by Paul Bigsby to the world of modern music by focusing in on some of his most enduring designs. Included are details of how he modified the pedal steel guitar into the configuration we know today, used an aluminum case for the shielding of pickups, placed all 6 tuning machines on a single side to promote tuning stability, and, of course, designed the now-famous Bigsby True Vibrato. The article also discusses the sometimes-strained relationship with Leo Fender and the similarities of a few design components found of most modern electric guitars. A nicely crafted article to whet your appetite for more history of Paul Bigsby and how he contributed to the world of electric guitars. Available at your local newsstand and online HERE.

Access to the internet
Affordable, universal access to the internet is far from a reality. While some countries have enacted legislation which guarantees access, others are more hesitant, acknowledging the internet's importance for development but wary of considering it a basic right.
Access to the internet is a multifaceted issue which goes beyond access to the physical infrastructure. However, access to the physical infrastructure is necessary for internet access, and the internet's backbone is constantly developing. Please click here to see current status of undersea cables, which are very important for enabling access in the developing world.
APC believes that the internet, with all its potential for enabling democracy, development and knowledge-sharing, should be seen as a public good. As such, governments should take steps to enable affordable access for all citizens. As described in the freedom of expression section we see universal internet access as a critical building block for exercising the rights to freedom of expression and association.
APC calls upon states, particularly developing states, to adopt and implement unversal internet access programmes in their endeavor to promote development in urban as well as rural areas. Meanwhile, APC calls upon developed states to facilitate such programmes by developing an inclusive internet infrastructure with a focus on bridging the digital divide.
However, it is important to understand that access to the internet is a multi-faceted concept, including access to the internet in local languages, access for disabled persons and the ability for everyone, including local minorities, to develop and share their own content.
