Cuomo Expands Voter Registration Access
A sweeping new initiative to expand access to voter registration and streamline DMV services has been launched by Governor Andrew M. Cuomo. For the first time ever, New Yorkers will be able to apply to register to vote, or update their address or party enrollment, through a secure online site.
"Governor Cuomo asked the Department of Motor Vehicles to re-examine how we did business and to find ways to make government more accessible to the public," said DMV Commissioner Barbara J. Fiala. "Getting away from paper applications and making use of the technology we are announcing today will improve efficiency, be cost effective, and better serve the people of New York State."
New York currently ranks 47th in the nation in voter registration, with less than 64% of eligible residents registered to vote.
The DMV processes roughly 300,000 motor voter applications a year. This is currently a cumbersome and time-consuming manual process, where drivers fill out paper forms at one of 129 DMV branches, which then have to be sorted and mailed by hand to one of the county boards of elections. This process is prone to human error, delays and, in some cases, to applications not getting processed.
The new system will replace the vast majority of paper forms and allow for the centralization and digital transmission of voter registration applications.
Under the new program persons with a driver's license or non-driver's ID seeking to register, or to update their address or party enrollment information, can do so online, through DMV's "MyDMV" Web site https://my.dmv.- ny.gov. MyDMV requires users to create a secure online account that is validated through the verification of personal information, such as date of birth, social security number, address, and license document number. Applicants must have a valid New York State license or identification card to qualify, which are issued after a rigorous, in-person identity proofing process at a DMV office. More than 700,000 New Yorkers currently have a MyDMV account and that number is growing daily.
In addition, new computerized electronic data entry (or VeriFone) devices are available at each DMV location. These new electronic terminals will allow registrants to apply to register to vote or update their registration information electronically without complet- ing any paper forms.
These transactions will be overseen by DMV representatives and are subject to the same security standards as the current system. The devices are also equipped to handle credit card transactions for DMV business.
These new applications will include a digital copy of a voter's "wet" signature that drivers provide to the DMV when they are issued a license or non-driver ID. The signature transmitted to the county BOE is the same signature that appears on their DMV-issued license.
Once the program is fully implemented, the applications will be electronically transferred via both XML file and pdf to the county board of elections, a process often referred to as "automated" registration. The county boards will thus be able to eliminate the manual data entry that is now required to process paper application forms.
In the interim, the DMV will print the electronically-captured voter registration applications with a digitized signature and mail them from their central Albany office to the county boards of elections. This will mean that DMV's batching and mailing from its local offices will be largely eliminated, reducing costs. The county boards will receive a single daily document drop that will be easier to process, track, and scan.
This has resulted in increased voter registration rates from online and automated DMV registration. According to the Brennan Center for Justice at NYU School of Law,
14 states—Arizona, California,
Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware,
Hawaii, Indiana, Kansas,
Louisiana, Maryland, Nevada,
Oregon, Utah, and Washington— currently or will soon offer online voter registration. Registration rates among 18-24 year-old citizens rose from 28 to 53 percent after Arizona introduced online and automated registration. A recent study of Arizona's online registration system found that young and minority voters are disproportionately likely to register online. After registration was automated at DMVs, DMV voter registrations nearly doubled in Washington and
Kansas and increased seven-fold in
South Dakota.
Cost Savings have also resulted from online and automated DMV registration. Studies in Arizona and Delaware have demonstrated substantial cost savings for DMVs and county governments from automated and online voter registration. In New York State, cost savings for
DMV alone are estimated to be at least $270,000 annually. Additional savings for the county boards of elections once their software has been programmed to accept electronically the voter registration applications is estimated to be at least $150,000 annually.
Automated voter registration has increased accuracy.

The Hotchkiss Brain Institute
Healthy Brains for Better Lives
Samuel Weiss, PhD, is a Professor in the Cumming School of Medicine's Departments of Cell Biology and Anatomy and Physiology and Pharmacology at the University of Calgary. An Alberta Heritage Foundation for Medical Research Scientist, he received his BSc in Biochemistry from McGill University and his PhD in Neurobiology from the University of Calgary. He is the inaugural and continuing director of the Hotchkiss Brain Institute at the University of Calgary whose mission is to translate innovative research and education into advances in neurological and mental health care. The Hotchkiss Brain Institute is now a world class research institute of 450 scientists and trainees, along with 300 professional staff.
Dr. Weiss' own explorations into the brain have changed the fields of developmental neurobiology and neural regeneration, and have earned him one of the world's most prestigious medical science awards, a Gairdner International Award. Dr. Weiss was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada in 2009, and a Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences in 2014.
In 1985 (Nature 371:717), together with Dr. Fritz Sladeczek, Dr. Weiss discovered the metabotropic glutamate receptor - now a major target for pharmaceutical research and development for neurological disease therapies. In 1992 (Science 255:1707), Dr. Weiss discovered neural stem cells in the brains of adult mammals. The groundbreaking discovery that dispelled dogmas that the brain cannot regenerate, has led to new approaches for brain cell replacement and repair. Dr. Weiss's current research focuses on transformed brain stem cells that give rise to malignant gliomas. It is hoped that studies of the comparative distinctions of neural and glioma stem cells will shed new light on how to treat the currently untreatable malignant gliomas.
Dr. Weiss has authored nearly 100 publications, holds over 20 patents in the neural stem cell field and has founded three biotechnology companies in this area. He sits on numerous national and international peer review committees. He currently chairs the International Scientific Advisory Boards of the NeuroDevNet Network of Centres of Excellence (UBC) and the McMaster Stem Cell and Cancer Research Institute, as well as the International Research Advisory Board of the University Health Network (Toronto).

We are wired to maximize good feelings and minimize the bad ones. Guilt is a case in point. But guilt can be a good thing --- if what it does is draw us into deeper communion with God. Psalm 32 provides an excellent sketch of the experience:1 Happy are those whose transgression is forgiven,whose sin is covered.2 Happy are those to whom the Lord imputes no iniquity,and in whose spirit there is no deceit.3 While I kept silence, my body wasted awaythrough my groaning all day long.4 … [Read more...]

|This comic I created for Juffs's contest TLK-funny comic strip beat out for the title of my most popular deviation! Thanks for all the comments and faves!
|You'll find TLK, Jedi, General Grievous, Dinosaurs, wildcats, wolves, dragons, Transformers, Spider-Man, and the Cobra Commander in here, among other things... It's kinda crowded--to say the least.
You can call me Nala. A little about me... I've been drawing my whole life. I started doing digital art in 2007, and have been learning lots of new techniques, experimenting and striving to improve my skills since 2006. When I'm not drawing, I'm writing. When I'm not doing either of those things, I'm working or relaxing. But sometimes I write and draw at the same time. It's called comic creating.
I started my first, full-scale Lion King comic in September 2010. The comic is called "Betrothed" and I dedicated it to a fellow artist and friend of mine who passed away just days before I posted my first page. RIP, Simbamarasa. I miss you.
On a happier note, my comic was a HUGE success (much bigger than I ever anticipated), and wrapped up in December 2012. BUT, it inspired a sequel, which began pre-production in July 2012 and is currently in actual production. The comic is called "Brothers". Check it out and let me know what you think. I recommend reading "Betrothed" first to have full enjoyment of its sequel, but it isn't entirely necessary.
When I'm not making art for myself or doing comics, I'm doing commissions, entering contests, and offering prizes and adoptables.

text: The GSX-R 750 is largely unchanged for 2008, but just look at this new exhaust can – it's huge. Last year's model made do with a positively svelte GP style exhaust, but this new one is as big as a traditional can and has the huge collector box under the engine to boot. While we're sure the bike will maintain Suzuki's trademark growl, it's a good indicator of the lengths all manufacturers are going to be taking to meet new European emissions legislation.

A few months ago, I tweeted the Canadian footwear shop Aldo and gave them a piece of my mind. "The moral of all my recently bought shoes falling apart story is: don't buy shoes from @ALDO_Shoes because they are s*** at shoe making," I wrote petulantly. The redress it promised has still has not materialised and at the time of writing, my £65 loafers are still growing further detached from their plastic soles after less than six months of undemanding use.
That scenario being a rough repeat of many more before it, I decided pre- Christmas to give up the mediocre high street shoes I've been wearing since the days when my mother bought me ones in Munich boutiques for my new school, and step up to the plate.
This was a coming-of-age moment that found me wandering wide-eyed down Jermyn Street in a world of welts and shanks and puffs last week. I was looking for shoes I can wear to work, but also to the pub — an all-rounder role that Noel Allen, the manager at the street's most famous emporium, John Lobb, says men are looking for more and more.
Around the corner at the little shop opened 12 months ago by established shoemaker Loake in Princes Arcade, the kindly manager Colin Austin has seen plenty like me. "Young customers don't understand that…" is Austin's well-meaning catchphrase, explaining that buyers who have only ever bought from M&S don't know that leather-soled shoes can't be worn for several days after getting wet or that a lifting heel is a sign the undersole hasn't been broken in.
Loake sells shoes in the £100-£250 bracket, and Jermyn Street insiders think its Northampton-made products offer better value for money than most shoes in that price bracket. Its 202 (£110) is a classic brogue with a beautifully stitched upper and leather sole. For £145, the 758 shoe has a simpler pattern, is slightly narrower and also comes in suede. Both shoes are Oxfords (referring to the shape of the lace eyelets). Crucially, both are also welted — meaning that they have a layer of leather between the sole and the upper — a hallmark of good shoes, and British shoes in particular, because it means that the shoe moves with the foot more easily.
"A good shoe should outlive you," says chief buyer Richard Sanderson, when I pop into the men's shoe department at Selfridges, which since its renovation claims to be the largest in the world. Pointing at his shoes, he says he's been wearing them for 25 years. Richard's shoes were fitted at a Jermyn Street shop, a service which you can still find on the street if you are willing to spend thousands.
Paul Smith has a corner of the department, in which Sanderson shows me a beautiful pair of wingtip Oxford brogues (£380) whose traditional design has been enlivened by the brand's distinctive green in the punch holes.
Nearby, the made-to-order room has a pair of Church's (another famous Jermyn Street name) called the Consul, which you can have in different colours, or widths or with exaggerated welts if you don't mind adding about 50 per cent to their £355 price tag. Around the corner, I'm keen on Grenson's Sid Derby shoes (£200), a classical patterned Derby with an exaggerated or "storm" welt (meaning you can see it — most are hidden) and an interesting multi-layered sole.
Back in Jermyn Street, Allen explains why so many London men are willing to fork out £600 and more for Lobb's world-famous designs. Unlike the made-to-measure maker of the same name on St James's Street, his shop now only sells ready-to-wear shoes, although they do send special requests to their workshop in the UK's shoe-making homeland, Northampton.
A pair of Lobb's elegant double monk strapped William IIs (£680) take a bit of getting used to ("There's quite a lot going on compared with normal shoes," says Allen) but feel like proper footwear. The brown suede Tiverty Derby (£655), with a long sweep front and chisel-toe shape, is a lighter, nimbler option, but no less lovely.
The Lobb regulars come and go around me without ceremony, returning and collecting shoes from the shop's repairer in a routine they have been happily following for years. And I think I've stepped too far into this new world to return to ranting on Twitter at faceless companies about shoddy shoes.

The ancestors of Catesby ap Roger Jones include many of the finest early American Colonial families. I have listed this information here for our family's knowledge. While I believe all of this to be reasonably accurate, further documentation should be collected and the facts annotated by their source.
It would be good to annotate this with who fought in the American Revolutionary War and in the War of 1812.
Some books and pamphlets of use that I have:
Some web pages of use... This is just a small sampling!
There are about 37 ancestors of Catesby ap Roger Jones (born 1821) that held office in the Colonies prior to 1701. Three of these were Governors of Virginia. Other individuals of note that are close to this line include George Mason ("Father of the Bill of Rights"), Robert E. Lee (first cousin of Catesby ap Roger Jones's mother), and George Washington. Queen Elizabeth's maternal grandmother was a 6th cousin of Catesby ap Roger Jones (which makes his grandchildren (such as my mother) 8th cousins of Queen Elizabeth II).
The Catesby line has been traced back to the Domesday Book in 1066 to Sasfrid, the landlord of the town of Catesby, whose descendants were named "de Catesby". The line includes 9 knights and notables William "The Cat" Catesby, Robert Catesby, Sir John Catesby, and Mark Catesby. The Catesbys are related to Princess Diana's lineage.
The Lee line can be traced back from Richard Lee (b. 1613) 25 generations to Alfred the Great (b. 849).
Virginia Governor Robert "King" Carter, through his mother Sarah Ludlowe, is reported to be a 15th generation descendant of King Ferdinand III (Saint Ferdinand III), of Castile and Leon (born 1199).
Mary Horsemanden (wife of Col. Williiam Everyn Byrd I) was a descendant of King Edward III and many more royalty in his or his wife's line.
The Cary line can be traced back to 1208 and has at least three Lords and seven Knights.
The Towneley line can be traced through Lawrence Towneley back to William I the Lion, King of Scotland (d. 1214) and to the Deans of Whalley in 896. See also this page on Towneley Hall.
Ancestry chart of Catesby ap Roger Jones, traced back generally to immigrants to America with notes on those who served in the Colonies before 1701. I may have missed some individuals (if you notice any, please let me know). While this information is as accurate as possible, there are most likely some errors. To verify the information, the sources must be checked and the lineage confirmed by more authoritative sources.

|Brevetted Major in the War of 1812 for distinguished service, he later received a sword from Virginia for his actions. He was appointed Adjutant General of the Army in 1825, and served through the Mexican War until his death. His funeral was attended by President Fillmore and members of Congress.

Inscription on tombstones of John Mann and Mary Mann and a description of his will.
It appears there were two John Manns in Gloqucester Co. at this time. This John Mann mentions a "cousin" (not necessarily a first cousin) Mary Hampton in his will. Capt. John Hampton was deeded some land in 1677 by a John Mann and the deed mentions the impending marriage of his daughter Mary to John Hampton.
My belief is that these two John Manns may be cousins or possibly father and son. There is also some weak evidence that they lived on either side of the East River (with my John Mann being on the east side).
I have one reference that "John Man" was a Commissioner for the County of Gloucester in 1676 but I can't be sure whether this is this John Mann.
|The Page genealogy book gives the inscriptions for the graves of John and Mary Mann and their daughter Mary Mann. It doesn't indicate this Mary was Mary Pettus.
P. 186 of Vol 26, Tyler's Quarterly Magazine; William & Mary College Quarterly III, p.34 for inscription on her tombstone, which has the Mann arms. She was 56 yrs. of age when she died. The York records show she was appointed executrix of the will of Elizabeth Pettus, dau. of Thomas Pettus, deceased (son of Col. Thomas Pettus).

You could just go with 1.0mm-2.5mm and it will be grand.
Cant really see the pin from that picture.
I suggest you remove one from your connector,push on the little tab and it should pull out,and take pics of it

Rated PG
Release Date: July 3, 2013 (in theaters and 3-D)
Directed by Chris Renaud and Pierre Coffin
Starring Steve Carell, Kristin Wigg, Miranda Cosgrove, Russell Brand
Movie audiences fell in love with super-villain Gru (voiced by Steve Carell), his three adopted daughters, and his army of hilarious yellow minions in the 2010 animated comedy Despicable Me. The movie made $540 million, becoming the 10th biggest animated motion picture in U.S. history. This summer, Despicable Me 2 checks in on Gru as the former bad guy gets recruited to join the Anti Villain League (AVL). He is partnered with enthusiastic AVL agent Lucy Wilde (voiced by Kristen Wiig) to go undercover at the mall in search of an evil villain. Meanwhile, Gru continues to deal with his minions' silly antics and the challenges of raising three girls, like when eldest daughter, Margo, gets her first crush. "Margo is growing up a little bit," Miranda Cosgrove, who plays Margo, told TFK. "She has her first love interest. Gru is freaking out." What else can fans expect from the film? The 19-year-old iCarly actress answered questions from TFK over email about Despicable Me 2 and the end of iCarly.
Why do you think the first Despicable Me movie was so hugely popular?
I think audiences loved Despicable Me because it's so different from anything else. Also there is at least one character in the movie that I think everybody can relate to. Oh, and the minions, of course!
In the first film, Margo and her sisters are adopted by Gru and they grow close to him in spite of his villainous ways. What do you think the girls like about Gru?
Margo and her sisters like Gru's crazy gadgets and his mysterious accent. They aren't afraid of him like most people are. They actually like his secret underground layer and the minions he calls his "cousins."
In Despicable Me 2, Margo is a little older. What is she up to in the movie?
In Despicable Me 2 you can tell that Margo, Edith, Agnes and Gru have really become a family. Margo is growing up a little bit, and she has her first love interest (Antonio, voiced by Moises Arias). Gru is freaking out and trying to stop Margo from going out with the boy and texting him all the time.
If you had a few Minions to do your bidding for the day, what tasks would you assign them? How do you think it would work out?
If I had a few Minions, I would have them do my laundry, clean my room, cook for me and take me shopping! I think it would go pretty well, but the Minions usually end up getting into trouble somehow.
What should kids expect if they go see Despicable Me 2?
Kids should expect to see the same lovable, crazy characters that were in the first Despicable Me but even more action and a really interesting plot. There are also some new characters that are really great like Lucy (Kristen Wiig), Eduardo (Al Pacino) and my love interest Antonio.
iCarly ended recently with a really poignant and funny episode. What did you think about how the show wrapped up? Do you imagine what Carly's life is like now abroad with her dad?
I was definitely sad to see iCarly end because it was such a huge part of my life. I'm super thankful to all the fans and people who supported it over the years. I was proud of how our final episode turned out! I think Carly will come back from Italy after a little while to be with Spencer, Sam and Freddie again.
Tell us about your new puppy.
I love my new puppy, Penelope, so much! She's the best! The best part about having a dog is seeing how excited she gets when I take her new places. She loves to hike and go to the beach. I think the hardest part has been teaching her to walk with a leash. Also, she's extremely fast so if she gets out and she doesn't want you to catch her, you won't!

Tapered seat Denso Platinum electrode spark plugs may not be available for your 350 CI V8 engine. It depends on which SBC heads you are using.
Tapered seat spark platinum spark plugs were introduced for 1971- up SBC heads. They are Denso PTF-16TT (hot) or PTF-20TT (cold).
Standard seat copper electrode spark plugs with a washer are for 1970 and earlier SBC heads. The standard spark plug is Denso W20PR-U (only one heat range).
I use PTF-20TT tapered seat spark plugs in my 1991 4.3L V6 for stop and go city traffic as well as high RPM road driving. I have only changed them once since the engine was built. The were like new (white) at 4,500 miles but i changed to the colder heat range anyway. I checked three of the plugs again about 6,000 miles and they are still prefect. I will change them at 25,000 miles even though they may still be in good condition. In a grocery-getter engine in good condition, they could last for 85,000 miles. I like spark plugs that last for modern crowded engine compartments because it is not fun changing them like it was in the '60's.
Google one of the Denso websites at www.globaldenso.com and bring up the appropriate chart for the engine that uses your heads. Then click on "details" in the RH column and it will give you the specifications of the spark plug.

Im new to forums but here goes
I live in Flint, I can vouch for AC Delco and much of GM manufacturing being reduced to a vast toxic field of rubble and a city in chaos. I cant really say if plugs made by outsourced plants and foreign workers are inferior or not, but my mildly cammed and built 454 still prefers OE plugs to the aftermarket Accell ones, I pulled them and went back to original because it just didnt feel right, once I got em out THEY WERE COMPLETELY CAKED IN TAN SOOT. Went back to OE Autolite plugs because thats all they had, I hope they last, but im a welder, not an engine guru. From the look of your pictures Id say youre fine for a few thousand miles.
The difference is obvious and they did not even try to hide it. The current "offshore" ACDelco RapidFire #1 spark plugs appear to be nothing more than standard R43TS spark plugs that have been reboxed. The current versions do not have the clipped ground electrode and the center electrode is not a small wire electrode that is supposed to be the visual features of the AC-Delco RapidFire spark plugs. The AC-Delco Electronics Division that made AC-Delco batteries was salvaged when it was sold off to Johnson Controls in Plano, Texas and the battery manufacturing plants in Mexico were closed and moved into the United States.
I suspect the current "ACDelco RapidFire #1" spark plugs are nothing more than standard ACDelco R43TS spark plugs but with the premium platinum spark plug price.
In 1995, the GM AC-Delco Parts Division logo was changed to ACDelco (dropped the hyphen). That occurred after the sell-off of the GM AC-Delco Parts Division to Delphi Automotive, which has also went Chapter 11 bankrupt after the SEC filed suit for irregular accounting practices after investor lawsuits.
In 2006, Delphi closed 21 of the 29 parts manufacturing plants in the United States and Delphi was changed to DPH Holdings Corporation.

So which plugs are recomended
I find all this new info on spark plugs enlightening, and thought provoking. I used to just ask for "stock big block OE replacements" The parts guy fiddles with their computer and comes back with 8 autolite, delco, or champions depending on the store. Gap em to.045 and snug em in with anti seize. I never really thought into it much, until now. Now Im thinking, "ok lets read the plugs and decide which way to go" How do you know when to go up or down with heat range or plug gap. Black is rich, tan is lean and thick crusty soot is plain bad, but theres gotta be way more to it.
IMO, in a older (pre-1995) GM engine, you should choose the ACDelco spark plug heat range recommended by the auto manufacturer but convert the ACDelco heat range to a another brand. I quit using the fake ACDelco Rapidfire #1 spark plugs and installed Denso PTF16TT platinum spark plugs. The Denso PTF16TT spark plugs have a similar heat range as the ACDelco RapidFire #2 platinum and ACDelco R45TS copper spark plugs. I used the Denso PTF16TT spark plugs but I felt that they were too hot, even for stop and go driving, because they were pure white when I checked them after the first 4,000 miles after the engine rebuild. I switched to Denso PTF20TT which the step colder. I have not checked those yet. My TBI engine seems to be running lean after the engine rebuild so that may be why the plugs were pure white after 4,000 miles.
Worn out engines, highly modified engines (such as mine) and engines used in the higher echelons of racing require the plugs to be checked and replaced more often.
I prefer platinum fine wire center electrode spark plugs because I want to change spark plugs as few times as possible in a congested engine compartment. I expect the Denso PTF20TT platinum spark plugs would last for 60,000 miles in a good engine but I will change them at 20,000 miles whether they need it or not. Another feature I like about Denso PTF20TT platinum/titanium tip spark plugs is the price...$3.00 each including shipping.

454 Made in Flint (10-29-2012)
As far as half the porcelain showing, is it possible that the plug is not facing the exhaust valve? When installing the plugs change them around so the strap is open slightly toward the exhaust valve. If it is totally facing the intake you may get the symptom you are describing.
There is an excellent article titled "Tuning an Engine by the Spark Plug.
by Brian Odom", which states in part:
"When tuning a performance engine the spark plug is a important tuning tool. Being that there are many different tuning techniques, I will keep this article about the basics of spark plug reading on a Quarter-Mile Drag Strip (or wide-open-throttle tuning).
When tuning by the spark plug, you must always use a NEW plug to get an accurate reading.
To get a clean plug reading the engine should be shut down after the run and towed back to the pits.
Any running of the engine after that will skew the plug reading.
When tuning by the spark plug, you must always remember there are two major variables at play (air fuel ratio and ignition timing).
To make it easier to determine your on the right track when tuning, make small incremental changes and only 1 or 2 changes at a time."

Check it out, some good info here.

You can mark the position of the colored half of the insulator on the outside of the plug w/a sharpie, then screw the plug back in the head (same plug/same hole it was in). Note the position of the witness mark you made, it'll be biased towards one of the two valves.
Reading spark plugs based on the Odom text, you can basically ignore the General spark plug info section below the info on reading plugs.

Comparative analysis of neighborhood demographics, social needs, and watershed infrastructure. In September 2011, several neighborhood areas were analyzed and then short listed to three sites, selected for further analysis. These sites were: Rabanus Park, Buena Vista, and Jefferson Park. Neighborhood outreach activities and contextual study to learn about the cultural diversity, community needs, and stakeholder interest of each of these areas is a part of this phase.
The project team will hold meetings and workshops in neighborhoods to learn and engage interests. Investigation and development of the skills and capacity for participating in a sustained community process will be explored. One of the three neighborhoods will be selected as the pilot project to be completed (with the intention that the other two sites will be completed at a later time). The goal is to integrate participants with varying expertise will be integrated into these neighborhood workshops. Conceptual design development of the pilot project will also be an outcome of this phase.
The collaborative design process between neighborhood participants, community members, and artist partners will focus on the uses of the neighborhood drainage basin, its design, and its associated programming. In April 2012, the WeDesign Charrette was held which brought together a wide variety of participants who shared their ideas for Rabanus Park. The participants were split into groups; from there they worked together towards a design idea. After the event, these were combined to form what would become the general plan for the site.
The partnership with community organizations continues, including with the Plains Art Museum who exhibit the results of the design charrettes, NDSU students who wished to apply their coursework into the real world, and the team of artists who continue sharing their creative output among others The physical, technical, and economic feasibility of the ideas generated in the charrettes is examined with the help of those knowledgeable in hydrology, native planting, and grant writing. Additional funding sources to continue the work of the Fargo Project are being sought out.
Continued design details of the basin and development of artist site components, including the Listening Garden and Overlook. An analysis/workbook of lessons learned of the project is in process, which will become a valuable resource for those looking to revitalize other detention basins.
Earth work will begin mid-summer to demolish a majority of the concrete channel to restore the site to a more natural system. Further research will be conducted on the water once the concrete has been removed. Additional earthwork will occur to rough grade other site elements, such as the Listening Garden. The initial phase of vegetation restoration begins, including inventory and management. Design development of other site components will continue, including the Overlook, Boardwalk and Natural Play area. Construction of the Listening Garden components of slit drums, marimba logs and drum seats will take place. Development of the Welcome Garden and Water Features will take place in the near future.

The Atlantic Forest of Brazil is one of the world's most important biodiversity hot spots; it still harbours a high number of endemic species. To know the processes that generate and maintain biodiversity is a major and controversial topic in evolutionary biology with large implications for conservation management. A research group from the University of Barcelona (UB) has performed a comprehensive phylogeographic study by analysing genetic diversity patterns and levels of land planarians (Cephaloflexa bergi) in 11 site localities, in and out the Serra do Mar biological corridor, in the Atlantic Forest.
The study, published on the cover of the journal Heredity, is signed by Marta Riutort, Julio Rozas, Marta Álvarez Presas and Alejandro Sánchez-Gracia, from the Department of Genetics and the Biodiversity Research Institute of UB (IRBio), together with Fernando Carbayo, from the University of São Paulo (Brazil). The study is focused on a geographic region of the Atlantic Forest which is severely damaged by human activities. Some areas of the region have been protected and some biological corridors have been designed to restore ecosystem functionality.
How is biodiversity originated?
The causes of the origin and maintenance of extant biodiversity in the Neotropics -- an area of high biodiversity value -- have been discussed for decades. Dominating hypotheses point out Pleistocene glaciations -- which took place between 2.5 years ago and 20,000 years ago -- or Tertiary tectonic geological reorganizations Tertiary, which occurred much earlier, as the main factor.
According to the new study, extant biodiversity of the Atlantic Forest of Brazil originated and has been shaped by complex interactions between ancient geological events and more recent evolutionary processes, whereas Pleistocene climate changes had a minor influence in generating present-day diversity, even if they influenced its distribution.
Most studies aimed at defining and studying high biodiversity areas focus on organisms with high-dispersal ability. However, these models could not be good indicators to detect small areas with high biodiversity, so it makes difficult to understand the processes that generate and maintain biodiversity. Innovatively, the study carried out by UB research group is focused on the land planarian (Cephaloflexa bergi), a low-dispersal organism which inhabits soil ecosystems.
Land planarians, an animal model of phylogeographic studies
Authors explain that "to formulate an efficient conservation policy, a good understanding of spatial and temporal biodiversity patterns and their underlying evolutionary mechanisms is required." "For this reason -- they add -- , it is necessary to work with organisms with a low-dispersal ability that are particularly sensitive to changes in the environment."
The research group performed a comparative analysis of DNA sequence variation of land planarian by means of a nuclear and a mitochondrial gene. By applying Bayesian inference methods (Approximate Bayesian Computation, ABC), two scenarios proposed to explain the biodiversity of Southern Atlantic Forest region were evaluated.
Results show that nucleotide diversity levels in this species are very high in most sampled localities. Moreover, most sampled localities harbour high levels of genetic diversity, with lineages sharing common ancestors that predate the Pleistocene (more than 2.5 million years ago). Experts found little evidence of a recent colonization of Brazilian Atlantic forest localities. Nevertheless, some populations might result from very recent secondary contacts; in order words, glacial and interglacial periods might have remodelled diversity distribution.
To improve biodiversity management and conservation
The study published in the journal Heredity highlights that land planarians are an advantageous biological model for making phylogenetic and, particularly, fine-scale evolutionary inferences. Furthermore, the study has enabled experts to propose appropriate conservation policies, for example the need to extend the boundary of the Serra de Mar corridor to the South in order to reconnect some areas that were linked in the past when the Serra do Mar was a continuous forest landscape.

Offbeat Israel: Heists, Ultimate Frisbee and the Peace Process
At last we have it. An answer to the million-dollar question: How do you bring Israelis and Palestinians together?
And it is … crime.
A bank in the Palestinian-controlled West Bank city of Ramallah was robbed last week, and the thieves made off with the equivalent of $30,000.
Palestinian police have revealed that of the six thieves, three were Palestinians, two were Israeli Arabs, and one was an Israeli Jew. Now isn't that just a picture of a harmonious interdenominational group?
Palestinian police Colonel Adnan al-Damiri has reportedly said that the Israeli Jew "was the mastermind of the operation." He said that coordination between Arabs and Jews could signal a "dangerous" trend in crime.
There is a more legal — though equally quirky — proposal for bringing together Israelis and Palestinians being put forward at the moment.
A group of American and Israeli Frisbee enthusiasts think their sport could be the answer to this region's troubles.
Ultimate Peace, which they are organizing this week, is an Ultimate Frisbee festival which will bring together disadvantaged youth from Palestinian and Jewish communities from the West Bank and within Israel.
The idea followed a visit to Israel by the American Ultimate Frisbee team, the Matza Balls. During that visit, the team taught Israeli children and promoted the sport of Ultimate Frisbee. The American visitors returned home happy at what they achieved with Israeli youngsters but upset that their game was not being played by Palestinians.
The American Ultimate Frisbee enthusiasts are joining forces with Israeli enthusiasts and the Peres Center for Peace to run the event. Gal Peleg, Director of Sports at the Peres Center for Peace, says on the event website: "Sport has an unparalleled ability to overcome barriers of language, politics and religion. Especially a sport like Ultimate Frisbee, which emphasizes fair-play, team cooperation and mutual respect, and offers a unique chance for Israeli and Palestinian youngsters to set aside their differences and work together to achieve a common goal."
Peleg's department has produced this video on its ethos of using sport to bridge gaps between communities:

Do you like Multitude ?
Join aNobii to see if your friends read it, and discover similar books!
In their international bestseller Empire, Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri presented a grand unified vision of a world in which the old forms of imperialism are no longer effective. But what of Empire in an age of "American empire"? Has fear become our permanent condition and democracy an impossible dream? Such pessimism is profoundly mistaken, the authors argue. Empire, by interconnecting more areas of life, is actually creating the possibility for a new kind of democracy, allowing different groups to form a multitude, with the power to forge a democratic alternative to the present world order.Exhilarating in its optimism and depth of insight, Multitude consolidates Hardt and Negri's stature as two of the most important political philosophers at work in the world today.

Paula Hunter gets under your skin. It's not just the wild hairdos and costumes, nor the intimate venue of her living room (73 Summit Avenue, Providence). It's that her unusual blend of storytelling and movement is so trenchant and so funny that you can't get certain images or phrases out of your head. The final presentations of Home Alone 2 are on October 10 and 11 at 7 pm (more info at 401.529.4391 or paulahunterperformances.com).
Hunter performs solo and with dancers from her youth-based dance company, JUMP! Though most of the work is new, she pulls some pieces from repertory, including three videos from Chopin and Me (2003) and the solo that opens the evening: Stray Girl (1993). It's a good entrée to her quirky stories and the dance that accompanies them. She sets the scene of herself at 16 — 5'9", with a size 10 shoe and thick glasses — and of a later attempt to date a man to whom she serves her favorite foods: canned corn, Tater Tots, Oreos, and Tang (she passes the cookies to the audience of 25 or so). She goes to a Bergman movie with him and then there's a bedroom scene from a Bergman nightmare.
Cue the Mozart, to which she re-enacts the poses and mimed gestures that went along with that story, and audience members are actively engaged in retelling it in their heads. Arms in two triangles around her face expressed her angst over all things social; that leap of joy meant "he" called her.
And so it goes. As always, mentions of her childhood in Michigan and of her parents' eccentricities creep in. In My Short Skirt Could Kill, a taxi driver sees her in a short-short mini and tells her, "Everyone can see you have the devil between your legs!" Her mother is waiting nearby in the family car and asks her what the cabbie said. Hand in front of her face, Hunter makes something up: "It's fine to lie to my mother." This time, the stances and gestures are reenacted by Sophie Herreid, Katie Norton-Bliss, and Ruby Stenhouse, to the strains of Janis Joplin belting out "Try (Just a Little Bit Harder)."
Hunter's paranoid fantasies are played to the hilt in Breathing, Elevator, and The Donner Party. The first concerns a momentary feeling of not being able to breathe, which leads to a car trip up and down the hills of Wales among the bountiful sheep and a mention that Chopin was terrified of being buried alive. The second has Hunter in a bright yellow shift, with pearls and high heels, pulling a small rolling suitcase that contains a complete tool kit, in case she gets stuck in an elevator. The monologue here is directed at a security person to whom she says, "I think of everything —have you ever heard of the Donner Party?"
And back come Herreid, Norton-Bliss, and Stenhouse, three amazingly polished young dancers, whose physical technique is matched only by their poise and acting ability in these sketches. They are joined by JUMP! tap dancer Jessica Coon in A Cup of Hot Liquid Is a Dangerous Thing, which Hunter narrates as they act out a cocoa disaster. Coon is terrific, keeping her taps a subtle percussive punctuation.

26 Nov The Glycemic Index: Serena Marie RD's Take
Whoops. I disappeared for a week. Sorry about that. It wasn't intentional. I had a serious case of the "I just ran a marathon so I can be lazy" disease and all the time I didn't spend working out and should have spent blogging, I spent… watching TV? I don't really remember. But now I'm post-marathon day 5 (well, on the day this is written, not necessarily the day its published), and I am feeling very ready to be back on my game.
Today I even wanted to go for a run OUTSIDE. Emphasis on the outside. Not to get a workout in, since I don't really believe in working out within seven days of running 26.2 miles, but because the sun was setting and it was 50*F and it was beautiful outside. But because of this whole Knockout craze, I stayed inside, terrified and debating whether I should drive to the gym and workout INSIDE. Inside, as in where I've been all day, inside, at work. Bleck. No. I'd rather cook & write in my blog.
So anyway, I have been meaning to talk about the glycemic index for a while now!! So right now's the perfect opportunity since I am scared to run outside.
The glycemic index is touted as a miraculous way to measure how quickly a carbohydrate containing foods will spike and drop your blood sugar. In theory, foods which spike your sugar faster are "worse" for you and have a higher glycemic index than those which cause your sugar to very slowly and steadily rise.
However, as with most things in the nutrition biz, there's a common misconception. You see, that really isn't an accurate description of the glycemic index. In actuality, the glycemic index is a measure of the area beneath the curve of how a food spikes blood sugar in comparison to 50 grams of pure glucose. Basically, its measuring the area beneath the curve, not the spike itself.
Whatever. That confuses me too. Let's just talk about why worrying about a food's glycemic index is confusing and silly.
1. A Low Glycemic Food Is Often Higher in Fructose!
Remember that time we talked about why fructose is even worse for you than regular ole' sugar? For those of you who don't, well fructose increases fat storage in your liver leading to fatty liver disease & decreases your body's ability to sense satiety. No bueno.
But! Since fructose is metabolized differently in the body than glucose, it does not increase blood sugar, thus it does not have an impact on the glycemic effect of food. So… take high fructose corn syrup or agave nectar, both are super high in fructose and lower in glucose, thus have a "low" glycemic index. HOWEVER, I would never go touting either as healthy choices!
2. The Total Glycemic Impact of a Meal is Influenced By the Total Sum of its Parts!
So basically, if you eat your super low glycemic chickpeas with super high glycemic white baguette, then you break even because the total glycemic load will be somewhere in the middle. There's no need to stress and add glycemic indices when all the glycemic indices of different foods will result in a skewed index that you can't possibly calculate without a calculator, a food scale, and a whole lotta' silly dedication.
3. There's Bigger Fish to Fry!
Instead of worrying about the glycemic effect of the food you're choosing, worry about the nutrient density. How many nutrients are you "depositing" into your body when you consume this food? If the answer is zero or minimal, then its probably not the best carbohydrate. Choose carbs rich in vitamins and minerals! Like squash, zucchini, beets, asparagus, cucumbers, oranges, berries, grass fed yogurt and sweet potatoes (but the list is endless!!!).

Well it took a while, but the last Class I vehicle set planned for 2012 was the one that finally got me to bite. I passed on the first four prequel based Class I sets because I already had versions of all those repainted vehicles. I passed on the second two sets because of Anakin fatigue and well, the Scuba Clone had some paint-op issues to say the least. But this set? Purchased.
Why this set, you ask? One, it's a brand new ship sculpt. Two, it has a pack-in Clone Pilot with a new sculpt. And three, it was easy to grab once it popped up on Target.com (well, it was easy to grab when it was in-stock anyway).
When this ship first hit, it was pretty hard to find. I was considering blowing it off, but when they came in-stock at Target, I couldn't resist. (It's the 5% off and free shipping with my red card.) Now that I have it, I'm glad I bought it.
It's a fun new design and like a fellow staffer commented, it has a nice organic bug like feel to the design. I'm not sure I'd want to be one of the Clones riding in the passenger jump-seats tucked under the back of the ship, but it's still a fun ship nonetheless. My only quibble would be that the pilot figure is a bit underscaled. He seems a bit small compared to the rest of the Clone Wars Trooper figures. In addition, the cockpit seems a bit too cramped to get other Clone Wars figures to fit in there.
Final Grade:
I'm going to go with a B+ on this one. It's a great ship for sure, and I'm looking forward to the 501st blue repaint coming next Spring, but with it being hard to find for most folks and a little underscaled in the pilot/cockpit areas, I can't go much higher than that.

Solar Company Reacts to Subsidized Projects Being Put On Hold
Published December 20th, 2013
Loading Video...
GAINESVILLE- While the Gainesville City Commission's decision to put any new subsidized solar projects on hold will shrink next year's increase in utility bills, it isn't sitting well with some local solar companies. The 5-2 decision not only keeps any new subsidized solar projects off the grid, but also any projects the city had already approved that haven't been built yet. At Thursday's City Commission meeting, the president for the firm Solar Impact questioned whether the decision would force him to lay off staff. The Solar Feed-In Tariff program costs Gainesville Regional Utilities customers a little less than three dollars a month.

I can't say as I've read about this being a problem with other PT145's but yes, you should be concerned about it.
If you field strip it, and then put the slide back on without the barrel in place and insert a mag (full and empty) you should be able to see where it's hitting the slide stop. You may be able to file it a little and solve the problem, but if it were me and it was a brand new gun, I'd take it back to where I got it and let the dealer take care of it (shipping for a ffl is cheaper then if you do it yourself and they may just exchange it on the spot so you won't have to be without)

Media Advisory: Carnegie Mellon Spring Carnival Set for April 18–20
Several Oakland-area Roads To Close for Moving Booths to the Midway and Sweepstakes Buggy Races; Please Note Traffic Alert BelowContact: Abby Simmons / 412-268-4290 / email@example.com
Event: Carnegie Mellon University will hold its annual Spring Carnival & Reunion Weekend April 18–20. The events listed below are free and open to the public.
This year's opening ceremony at 3 p.m., Thursday, April 18 on the "Midway," will include remarks by Carnegie Mellon President Jared L. Cohon and a performance by CMU's Kiltie Band. Student organizations are building and hosting booths focused on the theme "Fractured Fairytales." The booths, often reaching two stories in height, include "Snow White and the Seven Giants," "Humpty Dumpty Trauma Ward," "Moby Dick: Revenge of the Space-Whale" and "Rapunzel's Enchanted Adventure."
The Sweepstakes buggy races will be held Friday and Saturday mornings, April 19–20. If inclement weather causes the cancellation of the Friday and Saturday competitions, races will be held Sunday, April 21. Buggies are aerodynamic pushcarts designed and built by student organizations. Each buggy holds a driver that steers and maneuvers around a 4,400-foot course. Just an inch off the ground, the buggies reach speeds of nearly 35 miles per hour. Each team includes five students who push a buggy in a relay-style race up hills and to the finish line. Student organizations cmuTV and WRCT 88.3-FM will stream live event coverage from their websites.
The Activities Board Spring Concert, which begins at 8 p.m., Friday, April 19 on the lawn in front of the Hamerschlag Hall, will feature rapper Lupe Fiasco and conclude with a fireworks show. The outdoor concert does not require a ticket or wristband. In the event of inclement weather, the concert will move to Wiegand Gym in CMU's University Center, and a wristband will be required for admission. All wristbands for the indoor location have been distributed.
More information is available at http://springcarnival.org and http://www.cmu.edu/alumni.
When: Buggy races will be held from 8 a.m. to noon on Friday, April 19, and Saturday, April 20. Carnival activities will be held from 3 to 11 p.m. on Thursday, April 18; 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Friday, April 19; and 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Saturday, April 20. The concert begins at 8 p.m., Friday, April 19, with fireworks commencing at approximately 10:30 p.m.
Where: Spring Carnival activities will take place in the Morewood Gardens parking lot, across Forbes Avenue from Cyert and Hamburg halls. Buggy races will be held on Tech and Frew streets, and Schenley Drive. Concert and fireworks spectators will gather on the lawn in front of Hamerschlag Hall.
Traffic Alert: The City of Pittsburgh has granted permits to close several Oakland-area roads during Carnegie Mellon's Spring Carnival and Sweepstakes buggy races. Forbes and Morewood avenues will be closed near the campus intermittently from 6 to 11 p.m., Friday, April 12, to allow students to transport their booths to the Spring Carnival Midway.
Margaret Morrison Street, Tech Street, Frew Street, Circuit Road and Schenley Drive (Panther Hollow and Schenley bridges included) will be closed from 5 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., Friday, April 19, and Saturday, April 20. Pittsburgh Police and Carnegie Mellon Police will be present during the races to help monitor traffic. Roads will reopen by 12:30 p.m. If inclement weather causes the cancellation of the Friday and Saturday competitions, races will be held Sunday, April 21, during the same time frame.
Phipps Conservatory will remain open during normal hours. Due to road closures, visitors will need to park on the streets by the Carnegie Library and the surrounding area. City of Pittsburgh Police stationed at barricades will give bus drivers instructions for passenger unloading.
On-campus parking will not be available to non-permit holders and campus visitors from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday, April 19. Parking is available for $7 (cash only) at the Bob O'Connor Golf Course at Schenley Park, 5370 Schenley Drive, and a shuttle service will be provided to and from campus. Free parking will be available in the East Campus Garage on a first-come, first-served basis on Saturday, April 20. More parking information is available on CMU's Alumni Association website.

No, you're not seeing things. Out of our
desperate attempt to be rich love for giving you options, we've added a little something extra for today. Come on in and check it out!
"Okay, baby," Tim said to his sweet little daughter as she clapped. "Once more around the block in your Kiddy Cruiser Fix Pro Car Seat, then, just so you can hear it again."
And that, although neither of the two had any way of knowing it, would be the day that Ella made her first, real, long-term memory.
Years later, the coolest kid in her high school would pull out his 5th generation iLink and telepathically beam music across the room. Ella would shout out "Oh! I know this one!" and start singing along. The coolest kid would be shocked that someone besides him knew about Everything But The Girl and demand to know how and why. Ella would shrug. "I guess I just have a cool dad!" The two would start dating shortly after, and Ella would always look back on that boy as the second-most important man in her early life.
Of course, in Ella's memory of that song, there would be no recollection of the maximum safety standards and the LATCH system that had been holding her in place. There would be no reason for her to think of the Kiddy Shock Absorber that she never got to test, because Tim was a super-extra-safe driver. Ella wouldn't even remember the high-performance materials or the Breatheable Thermotex Fabric. All that would just be something she took for granted, something that would have kept her safe if it ever had to, which it didn't, because nothing ever happened.
Which, in Tim's opinion, was exactly what a car seat was supposed to be. And that's why he didn't think twice about that so-important second trip around the block. Because he knew his daughter, in her Kiddy Cruiser Pro Car Seat, was safe.

Does anyone have a recipe for making spray starch for quilting?
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Does anyone have a recipe for making spray starch for quilting?
one part Vodka to eight parts water and a few drops of lavender essence, (if you want some fragrance, I don't use it) It is not a starch but does give a little body to the fabric. anyway that is what I use.
I use 1/3 water and 2/3 vodka with a drop or two of lavender scent. It is not startchy but like Best Press and is not as expensive. (I never drink but vodka makes good vanilla and spray "starch")
2 cups water
2 oz. vodka
a few drops lavender oil
we all have same ingredients different proportions
mine is same as mamagrande's
Last edited by mary quilting; 07-17-2013 at 07:25 AM.
one I found on Google
What You'll Need:
1 Tbs. cornstarch
1/4 cup cold water
3 3/4 cup tap water
2-3 drops of fragrant essential oil or lemon juice (optional)
Mix It Up:
Bring 3 3/4 cup tap water to a rolling boil.
While waiting for water to boil, mix the tablespoon of cornstarch into cold water. Stir constantly until cornstarch is completely dissolved.
Once water boils, slowly stir in cornstarch mixture.
If using essential oil or lemon juice, add to mixture and continue to stir for one minute.
Remove from heat and let cool.
After cooling add to a one quart spray bottle.
No sorry, I am to lazy to make my own.
I'd rather just drink the vodka,with a hint of vanilla flavor...then starching won't be a concern!LOL,
Life may not be the party we planned for,but while we are here we should dance!
Hear, hear, Miss francie yuhas -- sounds like a great plan to me!
How can you starch something when STARCH is not an ingredient?
Is alcohol the secret ingredient in Best Press?
Would gin work?
I have Niagara in the 'bad' aerosol can - both regular and extra-firm - but I only use it when I can see that some little piece is going to go really really awhack. Or on those pesky fold creases off the bolt which won't go for steam.
I just press cut piece join quilt! Will things go better with vodka? real starch?
Forgive me but have only quilted a couple years and still exploring techniques. thanks!
"If it's messy, eat it over the sink!" Mom
My sister buys the liquid starch in the half-gallon jug, then dilutes it. I don't have the proportions, I just know she does it. Me, I'll buy the Niagara and the Best Press. I'd rather be quilting, and I don't have to worry about storing one more thing.
Francie, I don't drink alcohol, but I'll join you with a tall glass of iced tea!

Chrysler Repair Questions? Ask a Mechanic for Answers ASAP
Hello and welcome to Just Answer!
When you put your key in the ignition and turn it on, does the alarm shut off and are you able to start your engine?
It sounds like you just have a faulty remote in the key. We know the the key part is working because it disables the security system once you turn the key on.
All you should need is a new key and you should be good to go. The dealer will have to program the key.
I would double check the battery connections in the remote and make sure the connections aren't broke off or don't put enough pressure on the battery.
I hope this helps, anymore questions feel free!
Thank you,
The key(part # XXXXX) retails for $204.00 cad, so if you live in the U.S. the price may vary a little.
It only takes 10 minutes to program the key.
