Calling the state's health care system "unacceptable and unsustainable," Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger told hundreds who gathered for his visit to San Ramon Thursday that he needs the Bay Area's support for reforms.
After his appearance at the AT&T offices in Bishop Ranch, Schwarzenegger headed over to the Tri-Valley to take a tour of the Safeway Health and Wellness Center in Pleasanton.

It is good news that we are finally talking about healthcare in our state. Healthcare is an area riddled with market failures and a crucial area of spending in the average families budget. In order to do better we need the government to do a better job fixing these market failures and reducing the burden created by the uninsured.
I congragulate our governor for deciding to take on this issue. I hope the legislature doesn't try to play politics with this issue and seriously tries to solve our healthcare problem.

An everyday cigar that won't steer you wrong.
Villiger may be well-known for their machine-made cigars, but here's something new....handmades. That's right, the established brand is branching out, and this is their very first premium, hand-rolled cigar. Villiger 1888 is made in the Dominican under a strict set of quality guidelines. The Ecuadorian Connecticut shade wrapper houses a proprietary and therefore secret mix of fillers. The blend is mild to medium-bodied and smooth all the way through, making it perfect for lighting up all day every day. It's loaded with spicy and sweet nuances situated around a hearty tobacco core. Hell, this could be your new after-work treat. Because with centuries of experience and a desire to make a quality handmade, Villiger 1888 is a can't miss concoction.
There are no customer reviews for Villiger 1888, yet. Be the first to write one!

As with Facebook, Google+ is a great content dissemination tool. It provides an additional opportunity to share and address your customer's pain points, as we discussed in the blogging lesson. With that, any customer service-oriented blogs you've developed should be promoted on your company Google+ page.
Your customer support representatives should consider making use of the Circles function of Google+ to send relevant content to appropriate audiences. For example, if you represent a software company and you are connected to major clients on Google+, you may want to divide those clients into different circles according to the software they have purchased.
Another opportunity with Google+ is to spark chat discussions. Do you need feedback on your latest product version? Are you interested in hearing what customers like about your latest offering? Your company could start a hangout and invite followers to discuss.

The impact of maternal mental health and child's behavioural dificulties on attributions about child behaviours
Cornah, D., Sonuga-Barke, E., Stevenson, J. and Thompson, M. (2003) The impact of maternal mental health and child's behavioural dificulties on attributions about child behaviours British Journal of Clinical Psychology, 42, (1), pp. 69-79. (doi:10.1348/014466503762842020).
Full text not available from this repository.
The effects of maternal mental health and child's behavioural difficulties upon mothers' attributions for negative child behaviour were examined. A community sample of 70 mothers of children aged about 9 years were interviewed in depth and the interviews transcribed. Transcripts were analysed for spontaneous attributions which were subsequently coded on the dimensions of internality, controllability, stability, universality and globality. Mothers with mental health problems made the same number of attributions about negative behaviours as normal mothers. However, more internal-to-self and global attributions were made by the group with mental health problems. This pattern was demonstrated regardless of the child's level of behavioural difficulties. The increase in negative attributions by mothers with mental health problems is not the result of the association between maternal mental health and child's behavioural difficulties. Mothers with mental health problems do not explain their child's negative behaviours in a way that is typical of normal mothers, and reasons for this are discussed.

Juror Objects to Confederate Monument and "Blood-Stained Banner" at Courthouse in Shreveport
By Cecelia Trenticosta
Note: Cecelia is coauthor (with Will Collins) of "Death and Dixie: How the Courthouse Confederate Flag Influences Capital Cases in Louisiana."
The Confederate Flag flew high above a monument to the Confederacy at at the Caddo Parish Court House in Shreveport, Louisiana until years of protests by the African American community resulted in its removal in 2011. Eighteen people have been sentenced to death in the courthouse behind the monument and the flag, 14 of them black. Caddo Parish has one of the highest rates of death sentences in Louisiana.
Although the flag is gone, the monument, a towering cement memorial to the Confederate cause, remains. At the front, Clio, the muse of history, points to a book. Inscribed above her are the words:
A bust of a Confederate general is mounted at each corner. Stonewall Jackson stares to the north. Pierre Beauregard looks east. Henry Watkins Allen stands guard to the west. And Robert E. Lee watches south. Atop the monument stands a proud confederate soldier, holding a rifle. He is unnamed, presumably to represent everyman. Or, rather, every white man.
The flag pictured above is the Third National Flag of the Confederacy—the "blood-stained banner." This flag was developed during the last throes of the Confederacy as a way to incorporate the battle flag (the St. Andrew's Cross) with a red stripe running down the edge to symbolize the Confederates' willingness to die for their cause.
The monument, erected in 1902, however, is not a part of a museum, or a freestanding monument apart from government property. Flanked by ancient live oaks, it stands as the only structure on the courthouse lawn at the Caddo Parish Courthouse. Every person summoned for jury duty, as well as every judge, clerk, employee, attorney, guard, police officer, and defendant must pass beneath the monument.
Inside the Courthouse, Caddo Parish administers Louisiana's death penalty, its harsh felon-disenfranchisement laws, and its vast web of prosecutorial discretion.
Carl Staples, an African American native of Chicago, who moved to Shreveport in the 1970s following the race riots and had been registered to vote in Shreveport for 30 years, was summoned for jury duty at the Caddo Parish Courthouse on May 14, 2009, in the capital case of Felton Dejuan Dorsey, a poor black man accused of killing a white firefighter in a majority-white area of Caddo Parish. Knowing that the Confederate flag was atop the monument, he called the clerk's office to state his objection to serving under it. The clerk told him that if he did not show up for jury duty, a warrant would be put out for his arrest. So he swallowed his pride and walked beneath the Confederate flag and past the monument to the Confederacy for jury selection. When called for individual examination, Staples stated:
[the flag] is a symbol of one of the most . . . heinous crimes ever committed on another member of the human race, and I just don't see how you could say that, I mean, you're here for justice, and then again you overlook this great injustice by continuing to fly this flag which . . put[s] salt in the wounds of . . . people of color. I don't buy it.
The prosecutor promptly moved the court to strike Staples, arguing that he could not be fair. The judge granted the motion. The prosecutor then proceeded to strike five out of the remaining seven qualified black prospective jurors. The defense objected to the strikes as racially discriminatory in violation of the Supreme Court's decision in Batson v. Kentucky. The trial judge rejected the challenge. Dorsey, a black man accused of killing a white victim, was convicted and sentenced to death by a jury of eleven whites and one black.
We visited Mr. Staples at his home in the Martin Luther King area in rural Shreveport. Small children ran around squirting each other with water guns, and horses grazed in the field next door as we spoke to Mr. Staples at his front stoop. He explained his distrust of the system in no uncertain terms:
"It's a travesty. That they can force me to serve under this flag, this symbol of the single greatest human rights violation in the history of this country . . . I thought this was America."
Carl Staples was down the street in Chicago when the police killed Fred Hampton. He witnessed the harsh battles of the civil rights movement. After witnessing all that, "they put salt in the wound. To have to go up to that courthouse and see that flag flying there. I couldn't lower myself to do it." The flag and monument are a part of history, Mr. Staples acknowledged, but they should be "relegated to a museum."
The Rachel Maddow Show aired a segment in May, 2011 on the controversy surrounding the Confederate flag, Mr. Staples' dismissal from the jury, and the prosecution's strikes of five black jurors.
Cecelia Trenticosta and William Collins visited Mr. Staples at his home on September 15, 2010. Cecelia is a lawyer at the Capital Appeals Project. William is the Soros Justice Fellow at the Louisiana Capital Assistance Center.

MSc Information Studies: Human Centered Multimedia
Master of Science (MSc) in Information Studies: Human Centered Multimedia
Language of instruction: English
Starts in: September
Human Centered Multimedia is the Master's programme for you if:
- you are interested in the ways people interact with (new) technology and media, and how they are supported, hampered and influenced by them
- you want to analyse systems for the supply, storage and communication of information by means of various media (such as video, speech and text)
- you want to make connections between corporate/organisational management and the people responsible for developing technological solutions
- you are creative, and prepared to look beyond standard solutions
- your focus is on the end user.
The programme examines subjects like:
- visualisation technology
- information retrieval
- semantic web technology
- mobile systems
- privacy
- metadata
- cognitive tools
The city of Amsterdam is ideally suited to research these subjects. It offers an environment of unrivaled innovation, and is one of the most important European centres in the area of ICT and new media.
The HCM programme has five mandatory courses:
- Intelligent Interactive Systems (6 EC)
- Knowledge and Media (6 EC)
- Multimedia Information Systems (6 EC)
- Research Methods (6 EC)
- Thesis Design (6 EC)
Plus a choice (12 EC) of the following 'constrained choice' courses:
- Information Visualisation (6 EC)
- Web Search (6 EC)
- Mobile Systems (6 EC)
- The Social Web (6 EC)
Master's thesis
The last part of the HCM programme is dedicated to an individual research project, culminating in a Master's thesis (18 EC). This can be a general study regarding multiple organisations, or a study conducted within a specific organisation (your current workplace, for example). You can also choose to join an ongoing research programme within the UvA. Examples of HCM research questions include:
- How do people respond to a lying robot?
- How can we apply mobile technology to prevent those in the early stages of dementia from getting lost?
- What is the most effective way to present users complex information?
- How can we improve digital communication between the Ministry of Education and individual schools?
- How can we use an interactive game to help children find their way around the library?

Removing window and patching stucco
Hi All
I have a 1912 stucco house and am doing a kitchen remodel. Part of the project involves removing a small window; however, I'm a bit stuck on how to patch the stucco.
I'm back to the studs inside and it looks like behind the studs is something similar to 30# roofing felt and them some kind of wood paneling (OSB?)
Removing the window and framing it out is easy enough, but I'm stuck on the outside. A buddy of mine said use 1x6's to patch hole.
I'm stuck on what to do next.
1. Should I seal the wood somehow?
2. Do I need some kind of housewrap on wood (I don't want to buy 100ft to patch a 4 sq ft hole?
3. Will stucco adhere to wood/house wrap or does it need some kind of mesh
Thanks in advance
Remodeling contractor for 26+ yrs, one thing I have learned is, the only way to get an invisible stucco repair/patch, get a good stucco guy. Don't try it yourself.
Yes, cover the wood with felt or house wrap, yes, you need wire lath.
Unless someone did some work in the area of the window, I doubt you have any OSB.
Traditional stucco construction around here would be 30# felt over the sheathing. Vertical wood lath nailed every 16". Galvanized lath nailed to the wood lath and finally the layers of stucco.
As Bill said, stucco matching is a high learning curve trade. If you really want to give it a shot, I would practice on mock ups before you slap it on the house. Maybe give You Tube a look see. There are usually some videos that are helpful( and many that are not)
If you attempt this yourself, be ready to accept a close match as you will never get it perfect.
You also do not want a clean separation between the two areas as it will crack around the perimeter and you will see the outline of the window over time.
Thanks for replies guys
I'm guessing that current temps in Chicago are too cold for Stucco aren't they? If so, what's the best way to seal it from rain if I remove the window now 9gotta install cabinets in a few weeks)?
Or is a better plan to cut off interior trim, drywall over window and replace from outside in the spring? Not sure how practical this would be
To minimize the exterior visual, you might just paint the glass.

Act fast! 10% off eBooks at CengageBrain.com
For your college courses, what is one item that you as a student probably can't live without? Textbooks! One downfall many students can identify with is that all of those textbooks can really weigh you down. In fact each of your books can weigh up to 5 pounds. Ridiculous, huh? While you might get a great workout carrying them across campus, I imagine it becomes a tiring process after awhile.
The great news is that a major shift is occurring in the textbook industry. This is the age of eBooks! They are quick, they are easy to use, and they are fast becoming the norm, so if you haven't jumped on the tech train yet, this is your perfect opportunity to do so. Read more →

Morning Herald, The (Newspaper) - July 25, 1945, Hagerstown, Maryland THI Urn of Sports trhWss some is passed preventing the world series thine baseball claEslca will be aUged this The Navy has gone on rec ordthat they would like to have the make a 90 day tour of the Pacific stations and play ex hibitions Of course organized baseball has a rule forbidding the champions from Btaging exhihltioai but that is a mere matter to over come and JJQ one in organized base ball would a monkey wrench into inch a movefor the boys U the Navy the boys to go on tour one could almost wager their last piece of bacon if they are for tunate enough to have any that the series will be played The ODT may aale of tickets tg fani in the citiei where the games are to be played but that it another small matter There will he enough fans to make the well worthwhile Travel for the players could easily be arranged either by airplanes bus or private cars Yep it looks as if the classic is on for sure thii year Charles Town High will not gotn for a heavyfootball schedule this coming season is the report reach ing this column The Purple Pan thers will cut their playing dates andmeet schools located in their section which is a very good idea dueto the gas and traveling con ditions Some of the boys who have Hank Greenberg in action since his from the Army state that the big slugger Is suf fering from charley horse in both legs and that is the reason he has not been pounding the ball at the clip expected of him That could easily be true as Greenberg per haps rushed his condition to tan ektent that his legs suffered and that is hindering his swing at tae plate Getting right out of the Army and into baseball cant be done in a week days and now Greenberg will have to go along and work those kinks out of his legs gradually and it is quite a Job and painful along with it During the recent race meet in this city we had a chance to do some fanning with several old timers from Washington and they all stated that ifWashington had a winning ball club in those days the park would have been packed to ca pacity It was during those days that the majors put up at a down town hotel dressed there and then rode to the ball park In a horse drawn bus Every kid along the streetused to stand and watch that bus go by They could tell you the players and many was the time some lucky kid would be picked up and taken into the game and used as a bat boy Even the oldsters would pause and watch the visiting majors ride by watch ing such stars at Waddell Hughie Jennings Ty Cobb Crawford Joa Wood and many other stars It was a great piece of publicity and fans got to know the boys Now the majors breeze into town and their units are shipped right to the park and the boys take taxis to the park prior to the game It was a great ride from the old Arlington Hotel to the park at 7th and Florida ask any kid that toted bats for a visiting club o Allegany High School gridders will play a nine gams card this coming season opening on either September 21 or 22 with the Som erset Pa High eleven Games have been booked with Ridgely LaSalle Keyser Fort Hill and Hagerstown Walter L Bowers athletic director

Tallboys start appearing in missions starting with Lady Boyle's Last Party, up to The Loyalists. They are enemies on metallic stilts.
To kill them with Corvo's sword, you have to attack from above using a drop assassination (naturally, they need to be unaware of Corvo's presence as well, so suit up and stealth up).
Press R1 (PS3) / RT (X360) or your attack key (PC) as you descend on the Tallboy. Because of the loud noises stemming from the stilt machinery falling, nearby enemies are sometimes attracted to the sound.

Internal Affairs Minister and Napier MP Chris Tremain has requested a report into how a British killer managed to obtain a New Zealand passport issued in the name of a severely brain-damaged Hastings man.
British-born Simon Hennessey was 14 years old in 1978 when he killed his 72-year-old aunt in a frenzied attack at her home in Plymouth.
Twenty years later, in 1998, he escaped from Gloucestershire Prison and made his way to New Zealand, where it is believed he had links to the Hastings area.
Hastings man Robert Eric Jeffery was in full-time care at a home in Hawke's Bay when Hennessey was arrested using a passport in his name on the Sunshine Coast in Australia three months ago.
Yesterday, Mr Tremain told Hawke's Bay Today the case should be looked at in perspective, with the number of passport fraud cases per year often in the "single figures".
"In this particular matter I have asked for a report on it, but normally it's an operational matter." He said he did not know how Hennessey had managed to receive a passport issued in the name of Mr Jeffery, who has never had a passport and has been in permanent care since a 2005 car accident left him with a serious head injury.
Even if a person attempting to commit passport fraud obtained their victim's birth certificate there were a range of other checks the department went through, Mr Tremain said.
"They need to have taken significant steps to have taken the details of an individual that they can use themselves."
He also did not believe there were issues within the department's policy and procedures in light of another case in 2004 in which two Israeli citizens suspected of being Mossad agents were caught trying to fraudulently acquire a New Zealand passport using the identity of a cerebral palsy sufferer.
"We can have all the checks and balances in the world, there will still be the odd fraudulent passport that is issued."
Three months ago Don Jeffery, Robert's father, received a call from the Department of Internal Affairs to say someone had been taken into custody on the Sunshine Coast with a passport in Robert's name.
Mr Jeffery was told they couldn't tell him the name of the person arrested or even what he had done wrong as it would be a breach of his privacy.
Police confirmed at the weekend they had seized electronic items from a Hastings house they said was linked to Hennessey. It was not known how often Hennessey had stayed in the Bay through the years.

I think my well went dry
I live in Iowa were the past 2 years have been pretty dry. I went up to the well last night and turned it on to start filling up the cistern. I normally can start hearing water going in after a few seconds, but I didnt hear anything. I put my hand on the PVC coming out of the well and noticed that you could feel the vibration of the well motor. I checked to see if it was getting the full 240V and it was. So I decided to pull the well pump up about 6" and stick my garden hose down to see if the well pump will pump that water back up. I let it sit for about 30 seconds or so and the pump started bringing the garden hose water back up. So, my best guess is the well went dry. This farm has been in the family for 100 plus years and my grandma said the orginally well was put in the 1930s. I also dropped a small rock down the well and heard a splash sound....So, I dont know what the deal is. Any help would be great. Thanks.
If you heard a splash when you dropped the rock, the well isn't dry. The water level has probably just sunk below the level of the pump. How deep is the well? How far down is the pump? You may be able to lower the pump if it isn't already too close to the bottom of the well.
It took roughly 4.5 secounds for the rock to drop and hit the water. So from my calculations, it is 200-250 feet
It could be something as simple as a worn out impeller, a broken coupler between the pump and motor, or a hole in the drop pipe. Regardless, it's probably deeper than you want to pull without a rig, so it's probably time to call a local well driller.
I know it isnt the pump or impeller or the pipe because i put water down the well with a garden hose and it pumped that water back up.
I was looking around on the web, do any of you think I could have a bacteria problem in my well. I know there hasnt been bleech dumped down it in ages. I know my water yield isnt the best either before all this happened.
In regard to bacteria, I suppose that anything is possible, but I have never seen or heard of that alone preventing a pump from operating.
Do you know the recharge rate of your well? Perhaps you simply ran it dry and it will eventually recover. Your local Health Department should have all the paperwork filed when the well was drilled (at least that's the way it works where I live). As for bacteria, most locations require a new well to at least be tested for E-Coli. That should be on file also.
I took the well out and the well goes down 87'. The pump was at 85' and the water level is at 67 feet. I talked to an old well driller from the area and he said that the old steel casing that they put in back then didnt have perferations in the casing, it was just open in the bottom. So he said most likely the pump is just worn out. He also said not to get it cleaned because the casing could be on its last leg and fall apart.
It could also be as simple as a leaking check valve. Much more common than you might think!

Men, Men and MORE MEN at LA Style Fashion Week!
The third day of Fashion Week LA focused more on swimwear and street wear. Vanwolff, and Maggie Barry were just a few of many designers I watched showcasing their Fall 2014 collections that day.
Vanwolff is a swim and underwear company for men; the brand launched in 2012 and is based in LA. The brand features designs in briefs and trunks with sea creature graphics such as a seahorse, piranha, and serpent. Once the models came out my mouth dropped, I almost forgot I was watching a fashion show; they were all so gorgeous looking. I can definitely say I enjoyed watching this show!
Debuting her M8 Fall 2014 urban street wear collection, Maggie Barry was the closing designer of the night. With a large clientele list of big time celebrities such as Lady GaGa, Nicki Minaj, Dita Von Tease, and Steven Tyler is known for her amazing costume designs. Her M8 Urban collection featured pieces with quilted jackets, French terry, and cashmere. To view more pieces from her latest collection check out her newly opened "Shoppe" located in downtown Los Angeles on E 8th
Its Day 4 and I still haven't had enough of fashion week! Loving every minute of it, I was extremely exited to see Betsey Johnson's show but before I could watch that I went to check out Civil Society, and Control Sector. Civil Society showed off their fall 2014 menswear collection called "Fire and Ice" which is described to be a more refined and tailored young men's street and contemporary look.
Shortly following Civil Society's show was Control Sector. This fashion forward men's street wear line caught the attention of the many guys that attended this show. The collection "Beautiful Disaster" plays with the idea of the 4 elements in nature; earth, wind, fire, and water. Look out for these fashion forward looks, menswear is heading in a whole new direction.
Lastly, the anticipation was killing me! I was sitting front row for the closing designer, which was Betsey Johnson. I could not wait to see what she had in store for that night. Of course I could never be disappointed her show was filled with bright colors, platform shoes, sequins, colorful furs, and funky patterns, basically everything the describes Betsey perfectly. With her signature cartwheel into the splits move for the grand finale I'd had to say It was an awesome way to end the night.

USIP Specialists Call Security Sector Reform in North Africa Difficult but Essential
On November 5, USIP convened a panel of experts to discuss the array of difficulties in restructuring military, police and intelligence agencies that persist after the initial optimism with demise of previous regimes.
November 7, 2012
The reform of security sectors in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya is critical to the success of the political transitions underway since the historic uprisings against authoritarian governments in those countries, but such efforts have had a slow start and face major obstacles that reflect the broader struggles to develop democratic systems, according to specialists with the U.S. Institute of Peace (USIP).
The USIP experts spoke at a November 5 forum, "The Challenge of Security Sector Reform in the Arab World," which focused on the array of difficulties in restructuring military, police and intelligence agencies that persist after the initial optimism with demise of previous regimes.
Calling security sector reform "an urgent topic," Steven Heydemann, USIP's senior adviser for Middle East initiatives, said its success "will largely determine the fate of the transitions…that began almost two years ago." He referred to "troubling signs," including clashes among militias in Libya and resistance to reform within the security establishments of Egypt and Tunisia.
Robert Perito, director of USIP's Security Sector Governance Center, noted that in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya the security sectors were physical symbols of the "denial of fundamental human rights." In each country, he said, "security is the primary concern of the people and its leaders." The reform situation in each country has some common features but there are considerable differences as well, Perito said. Tunisia and Egypt have strong security institutions that endure, while Libya's were effectively dismantled by the Qaddafi regime and must now be rebuilt, he said.
Security sector reform involves not only security agencies but also the executive branch of government and the courts, and it "is a highly political process," Perito said. The reforms need public buy-in and to incorporate principles of good governance, and they need to include civilian oversight of security agencies, even though the region has little tradition of that, he said. The obstacles suggest that 2013 will be "a year of very rocky times," he said.
Tunisia. "There's still cause for optimism," Querine Hanlon, the National Defense University senior fellow at USIP's Academy for International Conflict Management and Peacebuilding, said of reform prospects. However, the country is struggling with growing violence, including the September attack by protesters on the U.S. Embassy in Tunis, and police are demanding more pay and protection and do not have clear authority in the use of force, she said. Despite elections that resulted in a coalition government led by a moderate Islamist party, "very little has been accomplished in the past year," said Hanlon, author of a USIP Special Report, "Security Sector Reform in Tunisia: A Year after the Jasmine Revolution." Neither Islamists nor secularists are happy with the caretaker government's approach to the security sector, which remains "unprepared for a new role" in a democracy, she said. Without security reforms, Hanlon said, "Tunisia's transition may well be in danger."
Egypt. Security sector reform is being blocked by the military's unwillingness to extract itself from its considerable economic interests and influence over political affairs, said Daniel Brumberg, USIP senior program officer for the Middle East and co-director of the Democracies Studies Program at Georgetown University. "There are much deeper interests," he said. "There's huge resistance." A prospective withdrawal of Egypt's military from the political sphere is seen by secularists as removing their protection from Islamist power, he said. Brumberg suggested that "quiet diplomacy" by the United States, in dialogue with Egypt's security sector, holds the best prospects for moving forward.
Hesham Sallam, co-editor of the web magazine Jadaliyya, agreed that "there are no clear signals" the Egyptian military will cede its political and economic privileges. "There's a long road ahead," he said. President Mohamed Morsi, who must manage the pressures from entrenched bureaucrats known as "the deep state" and his own Muslim Brotherhood, will play a critical role in building a national consensus for security reforms amid political polarization in Egypt, Sallam said. Brumberg and Sallam co-authored a USIP Special Report released last month, "The Politics of Security Sector Reform in Egypt."
Libya. Militia violence remains the biggest fear of Libyans, and many remain in operation with no criteria yet for disbanding and disarming them, said Manal Omar, director of USIP's Iraq, Iran and North Africa programs. The militias have asserted control over private properties in some cases, producing additional triggers of future conflict. The country's General National Congress was not even able to provide for its own security recently, and yet officials will need to develop a way forward in the security sphere that provides protection for the public before disarmament of the militias can proceed successfully, she said. Building public trust in the security agencies "is going to take a lot of time," she said, and quick, short-term fixes need to be avoided.

You guys are soooo great! thank you for all the nice things you have said. But I really enjoy designing a quilt and making it come alive. All of you are so supportive and I appreciate you overlooking a few boo boos when I was sick.
The blocks posted look great, can't wait to see the rest of them. As you earlier had been posting the pieces made, and I see your collections of pieces, knowing you didn't know what you were going to do with them, I could see how they were going to turn out, and I hoped you all would be pleased with them. I don't think there is going to be an ugly one in the bunch!

I think I may redo one of my blocks because If I don't it will be all red(both are red on the outer areas). I still love the other blocks may incorpriate those into the backing
OOOH! Love this!!! I can't wait to finish it...hopefully by next week...the craftshows are over for me for the year...I don't do any in Dec. because I have to have time to do my own personal things. Tiring, but I love doing it. I think my DGD will love this for her graduation quilt! Thank you Judy for the wonderful ride & your tireless work when you do these...very much appreciated! And thank you ladies for the hilarious, food/drink filled ride, & all the help that has been given!!! Will be ready for the 4th mystery train ride when you're ready Judy!
judy how cute i have never down an irish chain was nervous and you tricked me into doing it. i can't wait to sew it together thank you for doing this
Proud mom of a daughter in the Army
Judy, thanks so much. soooo much. I think after all is said, stressed over and sewn, this is going to be one of my fav mysteries. I'm a bit behind because I picked up a book and then two more by the same author. Oh how I wish I could sew and read. Can't even listen to audio books while sewing. I have a tendency to close out all background noise. Hugssssss to all, Retta still in sunny but oh so cold FL now

One hundred seventy-two years later, in 1995, Laurens K. Verheij and Markus B. Hugenschmidt write:
In recent years many studies on the reaction between hydrogen and oxygen on metal surfaces have been reported. Although this reaction is expected to be one of the simplest oxidation reactions, rather complex phenomena are observed which make a determination of the reaction mechanism difficult. Even for the water formation reaction on Pt(111), the system which has been most widely studied, an understanding of the reaction process seems only just emerging.
Here is a sketchy summary of what modern surface chemistry, with its expensive arsenal of ingenious spectroscopies, has taught us about the water-forming reaction on clean single-crystal surfaces of platinum under high vacuum: Both O2 and H2 undergo "dissociative chemisorption" on a platinum surface (under the conditions of Döbereiner's lighter the H2 would impinge on a platinum surface already exposed to the oxygen of the air). The following reactions summarize what happens:
O2 + Pt → Pt-O2 → Pt-O (a)
H2 + Pt → Pt-H (a)
Here the (a) stands for an atomic or molecular species adsorbed on the surface. And the notation hides much interesting detail: For instance, is there a "precursor state" in which H2 molecules bond to the surface before the H–H bond is broken? Where exactly, and in what geometry, does the H atom sit on the surface—is it above a single platinum atom, or bonded to two or three platinum atoms? The same questions may be asked for O2.
We know some, only some, of the answers. At low temperatures, way below room temperature, the O2 is bonded to the surface first as a molecule, and in no less than three different ways. As one heats up the surface, the diatomic (O2) ruptures into individual oxygen atoms, which sit bonded to triangles of platinums. At ambient temperatures, it is not likely that an O2 coming onto the surface survives very long before it breaks apart. The hydrogen molecules break apart even more readily on the surface. A consensus is emerging that on the surface, the Pt-bonded oxygen atoms and hydrogen atoms cluster, or form islands of Pt-O(a) and Pt-H(a).
Recently, there appeared two beautiful papers illustrating the immense complexity of a step as seemingly simple as the breakdown of an oxygen molecule into individual oxygen atoms on a platinum surface. One paper comes from the group of Gerhard Ertl at the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society in Berlin, the other from my colleague at Cornell, Wilson Ho, and his coworkers. Figure 3 shows an image from the latter group's paper of oxygen molecules and atoms adsorbed onto a platinum surface, made at atomic resolution with a scanning tunneling microscope (STM). The molecules are the light spots, and they come in two types— "pear like" (labeled F in the figure) and "clover-leaf" (labeled B) shapes. Please don't worry that the shapes don't look like the O2 dumbbell you expect. The STM technique does not really "see," for instead of sensing the position of the nuclei, it measures the flow of electrons from the STM instrument tip into available orbitals in the oxygen atoms or molecules. The orbitals (calculating them is my stock-in-trade) describe quantum mechanically where the electrons are. A clover-leaf pattern turns out to be exactly what one would expect—it confirms that these are O2 molecules. The darker individual circles (marked o) are oxygen atoms formed by molecules falling apart on the surface. Note the clustering of adsorbed molecules and atoms into islands, oriented along privileged directions of the platinum surface underneath.
Incidentally, one could have imagined that either H2 or O2 (but not both) first bond to the surface and break up. And then water might be formed directly, the Pt-H(a) or Pt-O(a) approached by a gas phase O2 or H2 molecule, respectively, without the latter bonding to the surface. This apparently does not happen; can you think of an experiment to test such a mechanism?
The next stage still remains a mystery. The most likely scenario is that on the surface a chemisorbed hydrogen atom diffuses out of its safe island, over to at Pt-O island, and reacts, forming a surface-coordinated hydroxyl Pt-OH(a). Subsequently, that species picks up a second hydrogen, and water is released. And the catalyst, Pt, gets to work on the next molecule.
Remarkable, isn't it, how old technologies link up to contemporary science? Actually behind Döbereiner's invention was cutting-edge science of its day—it was reported in several journals in Germany, France and England within weeks. And Berzelius, in a series of influential annual reports on the progress of chemistry, writes the year after:
From any point of view the most important, and, if I may use the expression, the most brilliant discovery of last year is, without doubt, that fine platinum powder has the ability to unite oxygen and hydrogen even at low temperatures.
One hundred seventy-five years later, we are still studying the intricacies of water burning. The wonder of platinum glowing in a stream of hydrogen remains. Imagine a contemporary surface chemist coming into an antique shop in Saxony, and feeling a magical connection, yet not knowing exactly why, to that mysterious object—a Döbereiner lamp in a display case.

Do keep checking the screws on the belt clips, mine have worked loose twice.

What Age is Appropriate for a large breed to start Agility Training?
I have an 11 week old Utonagan (GS,Malamute,Husky mix )I'd love to start Agility with but wonder what age I should start her Agility Training , I was told that 2 years is a good time to start with large breeds , is this true ?
Any help or tips would help , Thank you.

Anytime after 8 weeks is fine. Make sure your dog knows basic obedience training such as sit, down, stay, heel, etc., before starting him in agility. This will make it much easier when training him to do agility because he'll know basic obedience commands they often use in agility.

Two years is the absolute soonest you want to start her doing full jumps in agility with a large breed dog. Any sooner and you run serious risk of causing permanent joint and bone issues.
Most agility classes start with basic obedience and foundation work. The dog learns how to watch you and follow your direction and you learn how to lead her in the most efficent manner thru the course. You learn how to direct your dog and how to stay out of her way, not easy!!!
From these classes you would progress to things like tunnels, chutes, table work, and other equipment which does not require jumping.
Your best bet at this time is to contact an agility club or training facility near by and find out what, if any, their starting requirements are.
In our area your dog must have attended a basic obedience class and know basic commands like sit, down, stay, etc., prior to starting actual agility training. It is more of a knowledge requirement than an age one around here.
