These days if you fell asleep and awoke a day later it would be virtually impossible to determine the current leader of the pack seeking the Republican nomination for president. Newt is now leading in the great conservative state of South Carolina where he promises one and all if you nominate me, I WILL be a conservative. "There needs to be a solid conservative alternative to Mitt Romney and I'm the one that can bring together a national security conservative, and economic conservative and social conservative to make sure we have a conservative nominee." He charges that Mitt is a flip flopper who is pro oneday and anti the next.
Meanwhile on the sex front, poor Herman is confronting charges by Ginger White about a 13 year old affair both conducted. Herman's lawyer, Lin Wood, was adamant if there was an affair it was a "private alleged consensual conduct between adults– a subject matter which is not a subject of inquiry for the media or public."
Gee, I guess the attempt by the Republican party to impeach President Clinton for conducting a private consensual relation between two adults really should not have taken place.
The only hope for Mitt these days is to have a private consensual sex affair with both a man and a woman. Let them try accusing him of being Mitt the proper man!

The Takeaway
Should Parents Lose Custody of Morbidly Obese Children?
An article published Tuesday in the Journal of the American Medical Association says the state should intervene in cases of morbidly obese children. The authors say that parents should lose custody in the most extreme cases of childhood obesity. This opinion has drawn criticism from several lawyers and members of the bioethics community.
Arthur Caplan, director of the Center for Bioethics at the University of Pennsylvania, is one of the critics of the JAMA thesis.

Usually, we hear about the Madden curse. It belongs to whoever is on the cover of the popular video game.
Every year, however, Madden runs a simulation to see how the teams will fare that season. This year, Madden has predicted that the Chicago Bears will finish 12-4 and clinch the No. 1 seed in the NFL.
As well as that, Chicago is destined for New Orleans.
But beware, it's not time to celebrate yet. Last season, although Madden had their prediction of the Green Bay Packers as the No. 1 seed correct, the simulation had the Pittsburgh Steelers winning the AFC. They, however, didn't even win their own division.
So take this information with a grain of salt, but remember, expectations are high this season in the Windy City.

A proper "bleed" ensures the ink extends to the very outside edges of a printed page, leaving no margin or whitespace around your artwork. And though there's no way to set it up automatically, in this week's Deke's Techniques, Deke McClelland shows you how to precisely align your artwork to the bleed in Adobe Illustrator.
But despite the Illustrator help here, the rectangle will not be exactly the right size. It may just be one or two pixels off, but why not do it the right way? Here's how.
Go to the Control panel and click Horizontal Align Left and Vertical Align Top from the Align options. This aligns the rectangle to your artboard. Next you'll align it to the bleed.
Click the word Transform in the Control panel. Change the Width and Height values to twice the bleed amount (36 points in Deke's case).
Lastly, if there are some objects that fall outside the bleed, marquee them with the Direct Selection tool and use the Align options in the Control panel to align them. You can also double-click with the Direct Selection tool to open the Move dialog and change the Vertical value to move anchor points up or down.
And that's the right way to create a bleed and align your artwork within it in Illustrator. If you're a member of the lynda.com library, watch the follow-up movie to learn how to import a pixel-based tracing template into Illustrator—at the right resolution. This allows you to trace your artwork at whatever zoom ratio you desire and still get super smooth results.
If you're waiting for next week's free video, tune in to watch Deke draw a distinctive 2D video game character in Illustrator. Keep watching for more Deke's Techniques each and every week!

In a third study relating to bowheads, Kate Stafford, an oceanographer at the University of Washington, had come to Barrow to service the hydrophones, or undersea microphones, she'd put in the water a year before. She was monitoring sounds—from waves, marine mammals, the breaking of ice and the passing of ships.
"Marine mammals use sound to communicate and navigate," she said. "When the water is covered with ice it's pretty quiet down there. During spring breakup it gets noisy. If the ice becomes thinner in winters or goes away, it may become more difficult for animals to communicate."
Shell Oil representatives, in town for hearings on proposed exploratory drilling in the Chukchi Sea, are also interested in bowheads. Shell's attempts to drill in the Beaufort Sea were blocked by a court injunction in 2007, when a coalition of environmentalists, native groups and the North Slope Borough filed suit. The coalition cited the effects on marine mammals, particularly bowhead whales, from the drilling. (The company has approval from the Interior Department to drill this coming summer, but environmental and native groups are challenging the plan.)
Concerns about whales go to the heart of the relationship between scientists and Barrow residents. In 1977, the International Whaling Commission, citing studies showing that bowheads were an endangered species, banned Eskimo whaling on the North Slope. But Barrow residents said they had seen plenty of bowheads, and their protests led to new research on whales' population. The ban was replaced by a quota after six months.
Richard Glenn is a whaler and businessman, and vice president of the Arctic Slope Regional Corporation (ASRC), a for-profit organization owned by Inupiat shareholders. Along with other community leaders, Glenn helped found BASC, which offers scientists laboratory space, cellphones, a support staff and an environment where researchers often end up collaborating on studies."This is a town of ice experts," Glenn told me. "Our job is to have a running inventory of conditions. Put that together with science and the cultural differences disappear. It becomes like two good mechanics talking about a car."
Back in 1973 the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the federal agency responsible for predicting changes in the earth's environment, selected Barrow as one of five key spots on the globe to make atmospheric baseline studies. "We wanted places that were far removed from large industrial sources of gases yet not so remote that they're impossible to get to," said Dan Endres, who ran the agency's Barrow facility for 25 years until 2009.
Today, sensors in NOAA's Barrow observatory—basically a set of trailer-like buildings filled with scientific equipment, perched on pilings over tundra—sniff the air for ozone, carbon dioxide, other gases and pollution, some of which comes from Chinese factories thousands of miles away. In summer, carbon dioxide is absorbed by boreal forests in Russia and Canada. In autumn, the vegetation dies and the carbon dioxide is released back into the air. This oscillation is the largest fluctuation on earth and has been likened to the planet breathing.
Inside one trailer, John Dacey, a Woods Hole biologist, was installing equipment to measure dimethyl sulfide, a gas scientists use to track the formation of particles called aerosols in the atmosphere. "Much like ice or snow, aerosols can reflect the sun's heat back to space," said NOAA research scientist Anne Jefferson. In other cases, "like a dark ocean surface, they can absorb the sun's heat." Jefferson was calibrating instruments for monitoring clouds and aerosols, part of a study of the role these factors play in warming and cooling.
Based on research undertaken at Barrow, we now know that the yearly average of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increased in the Arctic by 16 percent between 1974 and 2008 and that methane increased an average of 5 percent between 1987 and 2008, according to Russ Schnell, deputy director of NOAA's global monitoring division. The snow melts about nine days earlier in the year than it did in the 1970s.
Snow and ice help explain why "a small change in the temperature in the Arctic can produce greater changes than in lower latitudes," said Endres. Snow reflects sunlight; once it melts, more energy is absorbed by the earth, melting even more snow. "Whatever is going to happen in the rest of the world happens first and to the greatest extent in the Arctic," said Endres. "The Arctic is the mirror of the world."

Finding sensors best suited to weather station project
Sep 06, 2012, 08:48 pm
Ok, so I am very new to arduino (don't even have one yet) but have extensive programming and C experience (was a CS major). I've always wanted to have a weather station but have never liked the limitations and non-customizable nature of the commercial offerings. Once I heard about arduino I did a ton of reading up on it as it was an interesting subject for me, and it seems the perfect project for me to take on if I take the plunge into the arduino world.
Obviously I want to take the best approach when putting something like this together, and that has led me to researching what would be the best sensor solution for this type of project. There are a ton of sensors out there, but the two major categories appear to be the thermistor approach, and the digital sensor solution. I want as accurate sensors as possible while keeping the price reasonable. According to
this site
(scroll to the very bottom), the best accuracy you can hope for from an arduino using the analog approach would be half a degree centigrade. I'd like something with at worst +/- 0.1C accuracy, along with a fast response time. Would an infrared temperature sensor be a feasible approach for this type of application? I also found
integrated humidity and temp sensor, but could not find any datasheet on its accuracy for temperature and humidity. My concern with humidity sensors also is their tendency to go bad after a while. I remember the oregon scientific weather station humidity sensors were notorious for this problem. Therefore, if possible I'd like to get a humidity sensor that has a decent lifespan instead of only a year like the OS ones, and is accurate enough for a good dewpoint calculation. Anyone have ideas on decent sensors that would be well suited to the arduino?
I'm not going to pursue other sensors besides temp, humidity, and barometric pressure one for now. The rain gauge and wind sensors I can always add at a later time.

OK, I found the datasheet on the dht22, I wasn't thinking and hadn't tried searching for it. It appears it's +/- 0.2C. I've also been unable to find humidity sensors with better than +/- 2% RH accuracy (perhaps the tech just doesn't exist). After doing some more research, it appears a 0.1% accurate thermistor could approach 0.1C accuracy on the arduino, the big limitation being the arduino's ADC. I haven't been able to find dedicated arduino thermistor reading boards.

I have thought about building one I am not not commited to buying the components yet.
Sparkfun had a rain guage / wind cup/direction sensor at one time but the last time I looked they were sold out.

I figure someone might ask why 0.2C isn't good enough. In a weather situation, especially with things like freezing rain, you want something accurate to at least a tenth of a degree fahrenheit. 0.1c == .18 fahrenheit, so even that is outside the desired range. Ideally, I'd like something that could take advantage of a 0.1% 10k thermistor, but haven't found such a solution yet for the arduino. It may be I'd have to go with a different microcontroller entirely, which would be a shame since the arduino seems like such a newbie friendly way to get into microcontrollers.
Thanks for the info copiertalk. To be honest I'm wary of going with OS stuff, given my experiences with them along with what I've heard from friends who've had even their higher end weather stations. Their stuff tends to have QC issues, are unreliable, and prone to failure. I had my eye on the sparkfun anemometer package but I just want to start out with the basics (temp sensor, pressure sensor, fan aspiration, relative humidity sensor, and possibly a wireless solution for outside siting) to begin with, and then possibly add things like anemometer and rain gauge down the road sometime.

Hate to keep replying to myself here, but I've found that probably the best approach to get the accuracy I want (+/- 0.1F or better) is to get a 12 or 16bit ADC and hook up the thermistor to that, and then the ADC to the arduino. Unfortunately this process seems a bit much for someone who has no microcontroller experience, unless I'm missing an easy plug n play ADC for arduino shield out there.

These kinds of sensors are all available on distributor sites (Mouser/Digikey/Newark). Just have to search and read the datasheets.
claims an almost 2% accuracy for humidity and .2% drift/year. It's a
capacitive sensor
so you shouldn't (?) need any additional high precision ADC or whatnot; just a resistor.

Thanks Chagrin. I will try searching digikey/etc and see if I come up with anything there for integrated temp sensors and such. All the integrated temp sensors that hook up to the arduino's digital pins I've found so far have only had at best 0.2c accuracy, and I'm looking for something that has at worst 0.1
In case this doesn't work out, does anyone know offhand of a newbie friendly 12 or 16bit ADC shield/addon that works well with the arduino? My searches so far have yielded solutions which aren't too newbie friendly, though maybe I could still figure it out in the worst case.

Ok, searched digikey and couldn't find any sensor modules with better than 0.1c accuracy. I did find a nice +/- .05c thermistor which would come out to 0.09f accuracy provided it was read by an ADC with enough resolution. I still wonder, however, if component noise and the like might preclude that level of accuracy even if I did have a 16bit ADC? I figure there's a reason there aren't any sensor boards with better than 0.1c even on digikey :.
I tried searching on mouser and to my dismay found I wasn't able to filter by accuracy at all. Plus, I've heard mouser tends to charge a lot for shipping so it's best to order from them when you have a lot of components to get. newark also didn't bring up any promising results.
I may end up going with the .05c thermistor and a higher resolution adc, provided it's worth the extra effort/cost and is feasible.

Measurement changes behavior
Re: Finding sensors best suited to weather station project
Sep 09, 2012, 03:31 am
Keep in mind that there are almost endless variables internal and external that can factor in and limit one's ability to approach a perfect sensor and it's perfect measurement. Things like sensor self-heating effects caused by the electrical interface between the sensor and the circuit required to bias or excite the sensor. My signature below is a reminder that it's known in science that it's hard to prove one can measure something specific without the measurement method being used having an influence on the measurement being taken. Not unlike asking a subject person to smile as you take a picture of the person, the pictured smile is seldom an accurate representation of the smile you see from that same person when he/she doesn't know they are being watched or photographed.
Accuracy is truly a complicated subject when you try to consider, define, or compensate for all the possible causes of deviation from 'true accuracy'. And never take page one datasheet accuracy specifications at face value. The marketing guys write page one, the real engineers are tasked with trying to tell the truth about those claimed specifications using small print and nearly impossible assumptions and external conditions one has to use to meet those page one 'highlight' specs.

Good points retrolefty. I am trying to "do it right" from the get go with this project, but I guess there comes a point where it becomes hard to impossible to get the kind of accuracy I want. Still, I want to do whatever I can to ensure the accuracy is as good as possible with this type of setup. In case anyone else is interested in this type of project I'll try and keep updating here as I progress.
I have ordered the uno r3, should be here by the end of the week. That should at least give me something to start testing and messing around with. In the meantime, I've been doing some more research, and have not been able to find a decent (at least 0.1c) integrated humidity/temp sensor package yet. Therefore, I've been seeing if a separate thermistor/humidity sensor approach would work, and it seems that humidity sensors need to take the current temperature into account when performing the RH% calculation. If using separate sensors, this could lead to some calibration nightmares that might not be there with integrated packages. In addition, I have not found a very easy, straightforward way to read capacitive humidity sensors with the arduino, still searching around but so far it seems pretty complicated and something which would require its own circuit. Basically the capacitive sensors seem to require an AC waveform of usually 1khz or higher in the reading process. I'm still quite green to this stuff so it's proving a bit much so far. I did however find this somewhat helpful thread:
Another issue I've come across is calibration for the thermistor. The 0c ice bath part is probably do-able, but good calibration will also need data gathered at exactly 25c and a third point (like 100c) as well. I don't see any easy way to calibrate those other points without expensive calibration equipment which I don't have. 100c is outside the range of most thermistors as well, so sticking one in boiling water will ruin it in that case. Still trying to figure out more info on this part.

Hi Guys,
Have a look at this one
It covers capturing remote sensors from Oregon Scientific V3.0 on 433MHz and local Humidity and Barometer on an Arduino.

BeschreibungTony Gaddis's accessible, step-by-step presentation helps beginning students understand the important details necessary to become skilled programmers at an introductory level. Gaddis motivates the study of both programming skills and the C++ programming language by presenting all the details needed to understand the "how" and the "why"--but never losing sight of the fact that most beginners struggle with this material. His approach is both gradual and highly accessible, ensuring that students understand the logic behind developing high-quality programs. In Starting Out with C++: From Control Structures through Objects, Gaddis covers control structures, functions, arrays, and pointers before objects and classes. As with all Gaddis texts, clear and easy-to-read code listings, concise and practical real-world examples, and an abundance of exercises appear in every chapter. This text is intended for either a one-semester accelerated introductory course or a traditional two-semester sequence covering C++ programming.

From the Telegraph:
London officials are understood to be drawing up comparisons to see whether it would be cheaper to demolish the £525 million Olympic stadium and build a new facility in partnership with a football club rather than subsidise its use as a predominantly athletics venue.
Oh really? Anyone care to rule that out?
"The LDA has left no stone unturned in examining all legacy options for the Olympic venues and is still looking at a range of potential sporting uses including athletics, football and rugby for the Olympic stadium," a spokesman for the London Development Agency said last night.
Intriguing. Those unturned stones apparently include West Ham and Spurs, though I recall talk last season of Leyton Orient moving to Stratford post-2012. They were top of League One at the time. Their form went into an immediate decline. Was that an omen? Now read on.

With the lights out, Queen's "We are the Champions" booming, smoke billowing, and the podium rising out of stage, Donald Trump entered the 2016 Republican National Convention.

But then the presumptive Republican nominee did something actually unexpected: He introduced his wife Melania with a few short words. Maybe he's come a long way after all. Nico Lauricella
You shouldn't read too much into body language at international summits of world leaders, but gestures also don't mean nothing. Take the playfully passive-aggressive handshakes between President Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron on Thursday in Brussels. The first one was nothing special — Macron shook hands with Trump, then first lady Melania Trump, and they all went inside the U.S. ambassador's residence. The second one, however, was a doozy.
Trump and Macron's white-knuckled handshake https://t.co/GDyM09xA9S pic.twitter.com/QU8fWWZd6g
— CNN International (@cnni) May 25, 2017
Here's how Washington Post White House bureau chief Philip Rucker, writing for the press pool, described that handshake: "They shook hands for an extended period of time. Each president gripped the other's hand with considerable intensity, their knuckles turning white and their jaws clenching and faces tightening." Maybe Macron had heard about Trump's handshakes and came prepared. But Trump caught on, and in their next encounter, at NATO headquarters, he gave Macron the classic Trump treatment.
This is a pretty intense handshake between Macron and Trump pic.twitter.com/nseTdcpXkX

But if you watch Macron's entrance leading up to that handshake, you can see him veer from Trump at the last minute and embrace German Chancellor Angela Merkel first, putting Trump off for last. Perhaps Macron was being chivalrous by approaching the woman before the men, and he clearly knows his neighboring German leader more than the American president.

Courtney Donlon was sleeping on her flight home to New Jersey on Monday when an announcement woke her up — over the loudspeaker, a crew member was asking if any medical professionals were on board.
Donlon, 22, started as a nurse in the respiratory care unit at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick in September, and she quickly volunteered to help. A 57-year-old woman was experiencing the classic symptoms of a heart attack, and working with just a stethoscope, blood pressure cuff, small tank of oxygen, aspirin, and defibrillator, Donlon got to work. "I was trying to think a step ahead — if she loses consciousness or a pulse and I have to give CPR," she told MyCentralJersey.com. "I was thinking, how do I make what I do have here work."
As she assisted the woman, Donlon also made sure to calm her down, as stress causes heart and breathing rates to become elevated. Fearing it was a "dire situation," Donlon asked the pilot to make an emergency landing, and Donlon waited with the woman on the tarmac in Charleston, South Carolina, holding her hand, until paramedics arrived. Donlon, whose mother and sister are both nurses at her hospital, said she does not know the status of the woman, but hopes to hear from her when she can. "I can't lie, I was nervous at first being on a plane with limited supplies, but once I realized I was the most qualified person on the plane and someone had to be the confident one, then I could take to the role pretty easily," Donlon told MyCentralJersey.com.

Republican Greg Gianforte, the projected winner of Montana's special election to fill its vacant House seat, used part of his victory speech Thursday night to apologize to the reporter he has been charged with assaulting.
In victory speech, Greg Gianforte says he's 'sorry.' "Last night I made a mistake." https://t.co/53QVJshUEz pic.twitter.com/wXfVpLpxhp
— ABC News (@ABC) May 26, 2017
"Last night, I made a mistake, and I took an action that I can't take back," Gianforte said in front of a crowd in Bozeman. "I'm not proud of what happened. I should not have responded in the way that I did and for that, I am sorry." At that point, someone in the audience yelled, "You are forgiven," which resulted in some cheers of agreement. Gianforte shushed the crowd and continued, "I should not have treated that reporter that way and for that, I'm sorry, Mr. Ben Jacobs."
The Guardian's Jacobs and a Fox News crew in the room say Gianforte "body slammed" Jacobs at an event in Bozeman, resulting in his glasses being broken; he had to go to a local hospital to be checked out and have X-rays taken of his elbow. The Gianforte campaign released a statement that claimed Jacobs "aggressively" put a recorder in Gianforte's face, then "grabbed Greg's wrist, and spun away from Greg, pushing them both the ground," but not long after, Fox News reporter Alicia Acuna posted her eyewitness account of the incident, which lined up with what Jacobs said and an audio recording that was released by The Guardian. You can watch Acuna explain what she saw below. Catherine Garcia

President Trump has landed in Sicily for a G7 summit and the final leg of his eight-day trip abroad, and he's been giving a lot of speeches on this tour, Jimmy Kimmel noted on Thursday's Kimmel Live. Trump has been reading from prepared scripts, which is a good idea, he said. "I've noticed, though, it sounds like a fourth-grade book report. He speaks very slowly and simply, not too bigly, he just stays in the middle and uses vocabulary even a child could understand. And to highlight that, we asked some actual fourth graders to read parts of Trump's actual speeches from this trip, to show how they stack up with the big kid in the Oval Office."
The kids are adorable, of course, and it turns out they are pretty good at reading presidential speeches, too. Maybe one of them will grow up to be president. In the meantime, you can decide who read it better below. Peter Weber
Republican Greg Gianforte is projected to win the Montana House seat left vacant by Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke.
With 78 percent of precincts reporting, Gianforte has 167,871 votes, compared to Democrat Rob Quist with 143,410 votes and Libertarian Mark Wicks with 19,251 votes. On Wednesday night, Gianforte was charged with assault, following an altercation with The Guardian's Ben Jacobs, who accused Gianforte of "body slamming" him and breaking his glasses. Gianforte's campaign claimed Jacobs, who recorded audio of the incident, "grabbed Greg's wrist, and spun away from Greg, pushing them both to the ground," but eyewitnesses backed Jacobs' account. Going into Thursday's election, 37 percent of Montana's registered voters had already voted absentee. Catherine Garcia
On two separate occasions, a senior mortuary employee at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware allegedly asked inspectors if they wanted to look at John Glenn's remains prior to his burial, a Defense Department official wrote in an internal memo obtained by Military Times.
Glenn, the first American to orbit Earth, a decorated Marine, and a former U.S. senator, died on Dec. 8 at age 95, and his family asked the Air Force to care for his remains between his death and burial April 6 at Arlington National Cemetery, to ensure privacy and security, Military Times reports. In her memo, dated May 11, Deborah Skillman, the Defense Department's director of casualty and mortuary affairs, wrote that on Feb. 28 and March 2, mortuary branch chief William Zwicharowski "offered to allow the inspectors to view the deceased," which was "clearly inappropriate and personally shocking." She was so concerned she asked his deputy commander to address the matter with Zwicharowski, Skillman wrote in the memo. Officials told Military Times that Skillman and additional inspectors refused to view the remains.
In her memo, Skillman also wrote that Zwicharowski said he believed the inspection was due to him being a whistleblower six years ago; along with two other employees, he revealed that the mortuary had lost or improperly disposed of the body parts of some soldiers who died while fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan. He was nearly fired for going outside his chain of command to report this, but he ultimately received a Public Servant of the Year award. Military Times was unable to reach Zwicharowski for comment.

Montenegro leader shrugs off shove from Trump, calling it 'natural' that U.S. presidents 'be in the first row'
Some observers found it rude when President Trump casually pushed Montenegro's prime minister, Duško Marković, out of the way so he could get to the front row for a NATO photo-op on Thursday, but Marković calls the encounter "an inoffensive situation." Journalists are "differently commenting" on the scene, he added, but "I want to tell you that it is natural for the president of the United States to be in the first row."

"Homeland" explores the contemporary story of immigration in America. While immigration is a national issue this election year, it plays out daily in the lives of people in communities across the country. It's a story of new immigrants who find themselves walking a fine line between access to and expulsion from the American dream. It's also a story of American citizens who wonder if legal and illegal immigrants threaten their way of life. It's a story of intertwined and complex issues that may have a significant effect on the choices people make when they go to the polls in November.

Re: st: generated file with append command has more than allowable number of variables
Mon, 11 Mar 2013 16:56:56 +0100
You do not need to type all the variable names by hand. Try something like this
u <shorter_file> ,clear
unab vars : *
loc vars `vars' <varnames_to_add>
ap using <longer_file> ,keep(`vars')
where, obviously, you do not type the < and >, and replace the content
inside with whatever filenames, and variable names you have.
Hi all,
I have two files, one (A) with 2045 variables while another (B) has
1055 variables. I wanted to append to A using B.
However since there are some variables in B which are not in A, I end
up with more than the allowable 2048 variables for my version of STATA
I have to use the option "keep" and list what I want from B. This for
sure is too long a command.
only wanted to append to those variables already in A from B and maybe
add two new variables, thus remaining with either 2045 or with 2047 variables.
I am
using data from a cohort of individuals we have been following for over
10 years with many variables standing for questions asked at each
survey round (64 page
Is there a command I can use to only append to
those variables that are already in my working file (A) and maybe also "keep"
only two more variables?
Thank you

Chamber Singers
A delegation from Charlotte including the Queens Chamber Singers, traveled to the Czech Republic and Poland March 5 - 14, 2009 on an official visit to our sister city, Wroclaw.
Our experience was amazing! I could not be more pleased with the quality, grace, musicianship, and professionalism demonstrated by our students. They represented Queens and the City of Charlotte as true ambassadors in every aspect of the trip. We presented five formal concerts and three casual performances as part of our trip. Twenty-eight people traveled with us, including students, alumni, family, and Charlotte city officials.
Our opening concert was held at the St. Kliment Church in the old town square of Prague. The nearly full audience was generous in their applause and support. Many even joined in singing with the choir on our arrangement of "Tece Voda, Tece," a beloved Czech folksong. The choir visited with audience members following the performance.
In Wroclaw (a Charlotte Sister City), we partnered with the Angelus Choir, our host choir, for three joint performances during our stay in Wroclaw. The first concert served as our introduction at the opening city reception held at the Old City Hall. The 14th century courtroom architecture allowed the voices and building to sing together. Those in attendance included the City of Wroclaw representatives: Chairman of Wroclaw City Council, Mr. Jacek Ossowski; Deputy Director of Cultural Department, Mr. Jerzy Pietraszek, Councilors, and The Charlotte International Cabinet executive director, Alina MacNichol; Charlotte City Council Member, Nancy Carter; members of the Charlotte Delegation; and invited guests.
Later that evening, both choirs presented a concert at the IX Lo Aula Secondary School. As a sign of friendship, the Angelus choir sang an arrangement of an American spiritual also being performed by the Chamber Singers. The standing-room-only audience welcomed both ensembles with great enthusiasm.
Our final joint performance was part of the Retro-Trams celebration honoring the 200th birthday of Polish Poet, Juliusz Slowacki. The event was sponsored by Polaska Television.
The Chamber Singers were the featured entertainment at the opening ceremonies for an event hosted by US Consulate Anne Hall on our last evening in Wroclaw. The concert featured music of the American south including spirituals and anthems. The Consulate, government representatives, and guests were highly complementary of our performance. Well wishers asked if we could return next year.
Informal performances included singing twice at The Cathedral of St. John, the largest cathedral in Wroclaw and at the Cathedral of St. Vitus, the largest cathedral in Prague. Both Gothic structures with their massive sizes took our sounds to the heights of heaven.
Aside from our concerts the group toured Prague, Wroclaw, Krakow, and Auschwitz. We also attended a performance of Bizet's "Carmen" held at the newly renovated Wroclaw Opera House.
This experience has changed our lives, made our world a little smaller, drawn us closer to hope and perhaps peace. We treasure the friendships that we have made in our sister city as well as the friendships among our classmates. The time we spent at Auschwitz will forever be etched in our mind's eye. The history that we lived brings to life the years of study from books. Singing in these historic spaces, with amazing architecture, allowed us to hear and make music in ways that we have never before experienced. To hear music in the spaces of the great composers allows us to better understand what the composers had in mind when setting the texts and notes. Our music came to life unlike anything before!

UPDATED | With the Australian Not-for-Profit and Charities Commission (ANCC) to commence as the new regulator of charities on October 1, the sector has been under pressure to ready itself for reforms.
But the new governance standards and financial reporting requirements scheduled to take effect with the introduction of the ANCC have been delayed and will now take effect from July 1, 2013.
Preparation and submission of financial reports for affected entities will fall due after July 1, 2014.
The reforms are designed to bring the charity sector more into line with the requirements placed on public companies.
Assistant Treasurer David Bradbury made the announcement during an address to the CPA Australia Not-For-Profit Conference in Sydney on Thursday night.
The sector and relevant professional bodies have been calling for more consultation on the proposed changes and greater lead time to allow them to come in to compliance.
CPA Australia CEO Alex Malley says he feels the professional group's submission "made a fairly compelling case for the dysfunctionality it would cause to implement the changes in the original timeframe".
Bradbury said "this staged approach will help the sector transition to the new arrangements and provide additional time for consultation".
Malley said he was "impressed the government has listened". He believes the major reason for the extension is that the government has understood that small- and medium-sized charities simply need more time to understand and implement what is needed for compliance.
But it will also allow the opportunity to continue advocating for a tweak of exactly what the new rules will be.
He "expects there will be some debate around whether governance levels of charities need to be at he public company level, or if there is a level below that which would be acceptable ".
If the proposed reforms do go through unchanged next year "the worst case scenario would be if it had the unintended consequence of derailing the effectiveness of very potent small local charities" says Malley.
"The most important thing is that they get it right and if that means a delay in the implementation then so be it" says Oxfam Australia executive director Andrew Hewett.

Okay I can understand not wanting to get scratches and stuff, but that's why you park in the back of the lot.

Sous Chef Greg Macri brings years of experience to the team at Barefoot Bar & Grill. After completing his education at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York, this Long Island native gained experience in several restaurants across the country. These include: Iron Hills Country Club in Allentown, PA, McGowan's Market in Sea Isle City, NJ, Buffalo Wild Wings in Greenville, NC and, most recently, Ocotillo Restaurant at Vail Marriot in Colorado.
Macri's experience growing up in East Islip, Long Island inspired his favorite style of cooking - Homestyle Italian. Macri's food philosophy is to "keep it simple and keep it fresh". This simple outlook can be seen (and tasted) in the fresh, delicious dishes Macri dreams up for Barefoot Bar & Grill.
When he's not cooking, Macri enjoys running. He has a goal of running 500 miles this year and is on track to do it!
Of course, with cooking being Macri's first love, he leaves us with this quote by Francois Minot, "Anybody can make you enjoy the first bite of a dish, but only a real chef can make you enjoy the last."
Chef Khoury Shanklin brings a wealth of culinary knowledge to the Paradise Point team as a Sous Chef at Barefoot Bar & Grill. After completing his education at the California Culinary Academy, Khoury gained experience working as a Line Cook and Kitchen Manager at The Prado in Balboa Park under Executive Chef Jeff Thurston and Executive Chef Johnathan Hale. After five years, Shanklin made the jump to Paradise Point and has been at Barefoot Bar & Grill ever since.
After growing up in East St. Louis, Illinois, and moving to Honolulu, Hawaii as a military dependent, Khoury developed a passion for cooking Asian and Southern-inspired dishes. When he's not cooking, Khoury can be found fishing any one of the great bodies of fresh or saltwater San Diego has to offer or feeding his need for speed on one of his motorcycles.
Khoury's food philosophy is "You're only as good as your last dish" – a statement that proves true whenever eating one of Khoury's delicious creations.

JACKSON--A scientist at the University of Mississippi Medical Center has demonstrated for the first time that two types of brain cells are abnormal in the brains of people who suffered from clinical depression and most of whom committed suicide.
Dr. Grazyna Rajkowska, associate professor of psychiatry and human behavior, looked at the region of the brain known as the prefrontal cortex. This "gray matter" -- located just behind the forehead -- is responsible for higher intellectual functions and regulation of emotional and motivational behavior.
The results of Rajkowska's work appear in the lead article in the May issue of the journal, Biological Psychiatry.
Earlier work that scanned the same region of the brain in living subjects indicated that this region of the brain was smaller in those who suffered from depression than in the brains of those who did not.
"The decrease in volume was an indication to me that something was unusual in the cell architecture and that there might be cellular changes in that area," she said.
The changes Rajkowska noted were in neurons and glial cells. The neurons are the basic unit of the brain, transmitting and receiving signals and processing information. Glial cells form the "support system" for the neurons. They don't transmit impulses, but they control the nutrients the neurons get from the blood, are active in the immune response and generally facilitate the work of the neurons. While other scientists pinpointed changes in glial cells in one region of the cerebral cortex in individuals with depression, Rajkowska's work at the same time found changes in both types of cells in three different regions of the cerebral cortex.
Rajkowska's career has been spent examining changes in the brain in several types of psychiatric and neurological illnesses including schizophrenia, manic-depressive illness and Huntington's disease. Her current research in depression showed there are fewer glial cells in the brains of people with depression and that the neurons in the same brains were smaller than normal and lower in density. The opposite is true in neurodegenerative diseases such as Huntington?s chorea. "In these kinds of brain illnesses, neurons die, and the glial cells try to compensate and support the neurons that are still alive. That's why there are more glial cells in diseases classified as neurodegenerative," Rajkowska said.
Further studies will show whether the changes in the brain were the result of depression or anti-depressant medication prescribed to help depression.
To sort out that information, Rajkowska will work with neuroendocrinolgist Dr. Garth Bissette, professor of psychiatry at UMC, who has an animal model for depression in rats and will look at rats given antidepressants and those not given medication.
"If the structural changes we?re seeing do, in fact, coincide with clinical depression, we could be looking at a major step toward designing better antidepressants," she said. "We will certainly know more about the mechanisms of depression."
Rajkowska's work also points to depression as more than a "chemical imbalance," as it's been called. "It's actually a complicated physiological illness that involves both brain structure and biological processes," she said.
Rajkowska uses brain tissue collected by Dr. Craig Stockmeier of the University Hospitals of Cleveland and Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. There, researchers seek permission from the families of suicide victims for donation of brain tissue and an interview. By asking certain key questions, the interviewer determines if the person who committed suicide also had major depression or another type of psychiatric illness. In addition, donations of brain tissue are sought from people who had no history psychiatric illness.
"These control subjects are valuable standards for comparison with the suicide victims," Stockmeier said. "They enable us to identify abnormalities in the brains of people with clinical depression."
Rajkowska and colleagues Stockmeier and Dr. Greg Ordway, associate professor of psychiatry and human behavior at UMC, share the brain tissue to examine several biological features in a number of brain regions. While Rajkowska focuses on changes in neuroanatomy in the brain, Ordway and Stockmeier examine two neurochemicals, norepinephrine and serotonin, that appear to be key to regulation of mood and suicidal inclinations. This collaborative research receives financial support from the National Institutes of Health and private foundations including National Alliances for Research on Schizophrenia and Depression and the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
Rajkowska will be a panelist at a satellite symposium organized by the National Institute of Mental Health this month during the annual meeting of the American Psychiatric Association. She was invited as one of the five leading scientists in the country on the neurobiology of mental disorders.
It was Rajkowska's work that allowed scientists for the first time to identify characteristics of overlapping layers of brain tissue in the cerebral cortex. "The layers are formed at different points in the brain?s development, and I found cellular characteristics that distinguish one cortical layer from another. Now, when you look for cell changes, you can know at what period of development the changes occurred."

The Washington Redskins dusted off a play from last season when they had Robert Griffin III run the ball on a quarterback draw in a third-and-goal situation from the 9-yard line during their loss at Dallas last Sunday night.
It's a play that the Redskins used with great success near the opponent's goal line last season, when Griffin was a rookie. They had not used it this season until Sunday. But offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan said Thursday that he hadn't been waiting for Griffin, who's coming off knee surgery in January, to get healthier before using the play. He merely was waiting for the right situation to call it, he said.
"We've had it in the game plan," Shanahan said. "You just don't like to call it when you don't think it looks good. I can't give you guys all our secrets. But there's times this year that we have called it that you don't end up running it because of certain looks you get on the defense…. Last year we ran it, it seemed, a ton early in the year. We stopped running it as much because defenses were playing it. If defenses were playing it, you're not gonna just beat your head against the wall. You've got to do some other stuff…. I think I had called it once earlier this year but we got out of it because of the look."
Griffin was stopped two yards shy of the goal line Sunday, and the Redskins had to settle for a field goal. That was a recurring theme against the Cowboys, as the Redskins managed only one touchdown and three field goals in a 31-16 loss that dropped their record to 1-4.
"You've just got to look at why it happened," Shanahan said. "Any time you get field goals, you really can't count on winning. You've got to get touchdowns. You've got to score in this league. You can feel as good as you want about getting yards and stuff. But it only matters when you get points. We didn't get enough and that's why we lost…. We've got to get better. We won't win if you can't score [touchdowns] in the red zone."
The positive development for the Redskins in Dallas was that Griffin had his best running game of the season, with 77 rushing yards. He'd totaled only 72 rushing yards in the first four games. If the Chicago Bears, who play the Redskins on Sunday at FedEx Field, and future opponents must respect Griffin as a runner, it could open up other things for the Redskins on offense.
"I thought it was his best game running athletically," Shanahan said. "He looked fresh out there. He competed hard with his legs, kept some plays alive, made some designed plays in the zone-read and did a good job. It opened some stuff up. It makes them defend a lot of stuff."
Shanahan also said the Redskins must clean up the communications issues they've had on the field, such as when wide receiver Pierre Garcon missed a hand signal from Griffin to change a route on a pass play against the Cowboys.
"It's something that happens," Shanahan said. "It's not something that you just don't worry about because it is a big deal. You definitely don't want to waste a play, especially in that situation. Robert signaled a route to him and Pierre was looking inside, adjusting his feet, and he missed it. It costs you a play and it costs you time in a crucial situation. So it's something that you understand why it happened. But it's something you don't want it to happen again. So you address it and you've got to make sure when you signal to a guy, the wideout's got to keep their eyes on the quarterback and the quarterback's got to make sure they see it."

Texas Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison ranked in the top fifth among U.S. senators in her ability to bring federal tax dollars for specific projects back to her home state, according to a new study by Taxpayers for Common Sense.
Hutchison, a Republican, was able to win approval for funding 38 projects at a cost of $27.8 million for 2010, putting her 19th among the 100 men and women in the U.S. Senate, according to the new rankings. Hutchison's spending on what is known in political parlance as earmarks has surfaced in her bid for governor, and the Dallas Morning News earlier this month highlighted Hutchison's designation by the watchdog group Citizens Against Government Waste as runner-up "Porker of the Year."
Critics say earmarks invite abuse and steer funds away from more important projects. ... Hutchison has defended the earmarks practice and boasted of her ability to get funding for Texas projects.
The state's other senator, Republican John Cornyn, ranked 54th in the study, helping to direct $3.6 million to eight projects in Texas.
The Texas senators were veritable pikers compared to the top two gatherers of earmarks. Robert Byrd, D-W.Va., a perennial leader, tops the Taxpayers for Common Sense list, winning approval for $251.2 million for 85 projects in 2010. Daniel Inouye, D-Hawaii, was second at $205 million for 66 projects. No other senator secured more than $102 million.
The Taxpayers for Common Sense study includes databases comparing senators, listing all directed projects and their cost and answering frequently asked questions about this process of federal tax redistribution.
"The increased earmark transparency in recent years reveals a troubling pattern during difficult budget times," Ryan Alexander, president of Taxpayers for Common Sense, said in a prepared statement. "High levels of special interest spending remain and powerful lawmakers are hoarding cash for their districts while the rest of the Congress fights for table scraps. Instead of simply rewarding the constituents or campaign contributors of the politically powerful, our taxpayer dollars must be spent on only the most critical and important projects nationwide."
Taxpayers for Common Sense describes itself a nonpartisan budget watchdog with the goals of increasing transparency, exposing and eliminating wasteful and corrupt subsidies, earmarks, and corporate welfare.

Tiki... oh yeah, yeah tiki barber right? his football career is over as is his TV career right?
Tiki is such a tool. Coughlin took his love for the game? Coughlin made him the player he became by teaching him how to hold onto the ball. Ungrateful bum. At least his brother had heart and class.
Entire Team Let Eli down today - NYG4l
This post is a sad excuse to explain why Tiki is a tool.
The only reason he said what he said was to launch his career as an "analyst"
That is THE only reason... he had no room to talk smack, ESPECIALLY after he leaves the team.
He was a great Giant but he will never have my respect.
Tiki's comments were a blessing in disguise.
Tiki questioned Eli's leadership ability, and then Eli stood tall, defended himself, ripped Tiki, and did it in a funny way.
All of the Veterans were like, OK - you don;t mess with Eli, he will stand up and be vocal if necessary.
Tiki and Eli made up over it, and they are good.

Does it work ?
I know that it is firstly intended to prevent swarming when queen cells are already built and that it is labor intensive, but I know a beekeeper with around 50 hives that does it on each hive before the nectar flow. I don't know if he does it at the right time though. I suppose that it would be better to doit at least 40 days before the major flow ?

Welcome to my personal webpage.
I am Patrick Deen, father of two, living in The Netherlands in the city of Haarlem.
I am the co-owner of a small animation company called: Captain Motion where the bulk of our work is geared towards business to business clients, meaning: we produce a lot of explainer animations and informative trade-show visuals.
With a background in art and music I sometimes feel the need to just explore and create without the boundaries of a client's brief. I enjoy drawing and painting in my leisure time and I have a passion for books and independent (mostly traditionally produced) animation.
Occasionally I like to take up coding. I'm currently working on a new version of "The Animator's Toolbar". A free Photoshop Plug-in to utilise Photoshop's animation feature beyond its implementation. In 2015 I started the website photoshopanimation.com to collect the most interesting video-tutorials about animating in Photoshop. This year I'll be creating a few tutorials of my own.
I'll use this site as a platform to broadcast my personal projects and interest.

Searched high and low. How wide is the vent notch? Thanks
I will take a shot at it. Mine are about an inch wide x 3/8" tall. I have some that are a little wider.
Thanks possum, so it would double as another entrance?
Yes. I let them use it as an entrance. I will screen it over if I feel there is some robbing going on. And like said above you can open and close it with a telescoping cover.
After watching three hives get ravaged by the 1000 year flood last October, every hive I have has a top entrance. They were not my hives, but a top entrance would have probably saved them.
Thanks Scott and possum!

"Originally where we're standing right now, as you can see from the marks on the floor, many ranges of unbound journals and we're down now to one range."
Leah Krevit is the associate director for collections management at the TMC Library.
"We have left about 150 print, current journals that we're still subscribing to. Everything else is available electronically."
Krevit says instead of bulky textbooks and journals, students, researchers and doctors are now using electronic open access journals, podcasts, wikis and blogs.
"When we cancelled over a thousand print journals, current journals, we did not receive any feedback at all. So, the library had waited just long enough I think for our users, faculty, researchers, students, to make the shift. They had already shifted their reading patterns and their research patterns to digital information, so by the time we actually cancelled the print, it didn't matter to them anymore."
The shift to electronic publishing has been swift. Experts now say students not only expect to have access to digital information, they demand it. Dr. Adol Esquivel a graduate student at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston.
"From the student's perspective what is important is to be able to get to the information that we need to get when we need to get to it. It used to be that I had to come to the library and spend literally hours looking for things, doing my research, reading and things like that. Now, with things like this, I can be at the side of the patient or doing my homework at home or wherever I am, and I can get access to the information I need when I need it."
The conversion to digital information hasn't been easy. Some researchers are reluctant to release their work on a blog or in a podcast. Dr. Cynthia Phelps is an assistant professor of Health Science Education at UT-Houston. She says the National Institutes of Health is pushing the conversion to open digital access.
"They are demanding now that if they fund grants, the data that comes out of those grants must be accessible and published for people to be able to use. In addition to the articles, they need to be accessible for people to read. So this is pushing the technologies that allow for open access in digital form so anyone can use this information."
The digital efforts are part of what's called Web 2.0, a growing array of interactive resources on the internet.

Accuracy ALWAYS WINS! So carry what you can hit with.
If you find yourself in a fair fight your tactics stink.
I think most of you with the "Let's go... NOW!" answer are missing the OP's point. There are times when the threat is close and could hear you. Or you don't want to cause a crowd to panic and trample your kids. A code word allows you both to be in code orange/red at the same time while not alerting the BG that you are preparing/making plans to avoid being a victim.
