Chapter Forty FiveMature
Edward hovered over Bella's thrashing body, his hands sporadically darting from her shoulder to her stomach to her thigh to her face; he'd never felt so entirely helpless in his entire existence. His heart was twisting in his chest, contorting itself every time she screamed in pain or twitched uncontrollably. His palm grazed her skin and he yanked his hand back, his skin burning where it had touched hers. Panic rose up in his throat, what was a vampire doing with burning skin?
The whisper of frantic thoughts reached James' mind like a breath of smoke. Her skin would only be burning for one reason, and if Edward was close enough to feel the heat, he was close enough to catch fire.
'Run, you fool!' was all James could offer, his consciousness exhausted with the damage to his skull starting to really develop.
Edward didn't hesitate at the order, somehow having found a strange trust for the man that remained in the crumbling building; a respect that had somehow grown deep in his subconscious. James was risking his life, was very likely about to die, for Bella's sake - that was something Edward could have nothing but respect and admiration for.
A man who shared his ideals, that was worthy of respect and trust and friendship; he didn't know when he'd realized that.
He leaped to his feet and scooped up Delia and Jasper as he fled the vicinity of Bella's igniting body. The farther he got, the more his body felt stretched and torn; the desperate desire to return to her tugged at his consciousness and his heart. He ran on, stopping only when all noise of James' mind faded. He fell to his knees facing the direction of the two he'd left behind. Delia stared out towards them beside him, her breath coming in slow, regulated inhales and exhales. Jasper remained where he was set, scooting only enough to lean back on a tree, and stared blankly in a different direction.
The flames seemed to shoot out deliberately in a single direction, seeking out Acanthus with voracious hunger and licking up his body. James heard the snapping and crackling of flame consuming oxygen and listened desperately to the last thoughts of his enemy. Acanthus' mind was filled with nothing except expletives and words like searing and flesh. The scent of burning organs filled James' nostrils and he allowed himself to feel accomplished for a mere moment. The flames would reach him shortly and he had to move, he had to get up. Get out of the demolished, and now burning, building. He urged his limbs to move, his hands to lift and move the rock that was crushing his ribs. He mentally pleaded with his telekinesis to have enough power to lift the stone, just that and he would be satisfied. He would ask no more of his gift.
But nothing lifted and despite his best efforts to move his appendages, nothing shifted. He remained pinned beneath the fragment of ceiling and felt a sick, dark warning creep into his head.
He might actually die.
And what was worse: he might actually die due to the power of the very person he sought to live for.
The tragedy was ironic.
Bella rolled over coughing, her coherent mind finally able to kick in once she'd ignited. Somehow, releasing the flames drew her away from the crushing pain in her chest and she lifted her torso from the hard ground as she coughed harder and harder, her sore throat scratching and rough with pain every time she tried to breathe. She righted herself and kneeled as she got her balance. Standing, she scanned the area to find no one in sight; she turned to the inflamed building and inhaled through her nose. Beneath the thick smell of smoke and burning flesh, she could smell something else, something deeper. She sniffed again, sorting through the smells quickly.
She could smell him. James was in the burning building.
James opened his eyes and watched the fire eat everything around him. The desperation gradually receded and became resignation; he simply could not move his body no matter how hard he tried. If Edward was smart he'd already fled, no one would be able to come after him. Bella had been entirely unconscious the last time he'd seen her; he had no way of knowing whether or not she was consciously catching fire. He didn't have enough energy to reach out to her telepathically; or perhaps it wasn't a matter of energy as much as it was a matter of ability to draw on his power. His consciousness was slipping further away every second.
The silhouette of a small, feminine figure appeared behind the wall of flame, a flickering, dancing shadow of a woman. James fought to keep his eyes open. Bella stepped through the fire that burned beneath her, the pads of her feet pressing on hot ash without feeling.
She moved swiftly, dancing through the flames with the agile grace of smoke, twisting around fallen beams and the still falling rubble. James' still form lay a few yards ahead, a pile of stones crushing his entire chest and upper legs; she couldn't hear him breathing and his eyes appeared to be rolled into the back of his head. Her breath caught in her throat and she nearly cried out as she dove for him, her knees buckling beneath her as she reached him. A sob roughly wiggling in her throat, she whimpered his name as her hand caressed his cheek. His eyelids fluttered but he didn't seem able to move his eyes. Her hand touched his hair and came back coated in his dark blood; not understanding the situation, she moved her fingers along his skull in search of the break and found it where his head met the concrete beneath him. She felt around it, murmuring soft apologies for fingering his wound, and estimated it to be dangerously large. Her finger slipped into the crack in bone and she nearly screamed.
She turned and roughly shoved the stones and broken pieces of wood off of him, moving her attention to James as soon as everything was tossed aside. The sight of his crushed body and pooling blood filled her with a disturbing sense of dread, like the blackest of shadows moving across her body she felt the terror of losing him envelop her. She pressed her hands to each side of his face and whispered his name desperately. To her surprise, his eyes shifted and she was staring into his transfixing emerald orbs with a joy that swelled so rapidly in her chest she thought she might explode. But the way he stared at her as if he couldn't see her frightened her and she couldn't help but feel that he was living his last few seconds of life.
Edward stayed a good ten feet back from James' eerily still body, feelings he couldn't come to grips with were bombarding him from all angles. Delia seemed to understand that now was not the time to be cooing at Bella's feet and instead she hung herself delicate around Edward, burying her nose into his neck and silently watching the scene before them. Bella had ripped into the flesh of her own wrist with her teeth and was pressing the wound to James' paling lips. He remained unresponsive, and a knot formed in Edward's stomach as he searched fruitlessly for the sounds of James' thoughts.
Bella sighed, the soft sound stirring the night air around them, but James didn't move. He hadn't moved, not for a while now. She'd pressed her wrist to his lips until it clotted and stopped bleeding. In the stillness, Bella could hear the quiet breathing of the three other vampires keeping their distance from Bella as she hunched over James. Soft murmurs of her voice floated on the breeze between them.
"I still sketch you; I draw the smooth lines of your face from memory. I can remember the way your eyes crinkle slightly when you would smile at me, if I think about it hard enough I can even recall the exact melody of your laugh. I know I left on my own, I know I walked out of that door without any outside encouragement; and I'll say it a thousand times: I've never made a bigger mistake in my life.
I have so much to tell you, so many things I need to say." She lifted her eyes from her twisting fingers and studied his face. "I know you've been around a long time, James; I know you're probably tired of the routine of living, I know you're probably thinking that we're not worth saving - and I'm sorry for the things I've done and I know my apology is empty and lifeless and doesn't mean anything right now in the face of what's happening, but I need to say it. Please wake up.
You've shown me everything worth living for. Everything that I think about every day, I think about because of you. Because of you, I know what it feels like to really miss someone. To long for the physical nearness of someone else so desperately that a part of you is missing. I've felt the overwhelming desolation that bombards me merely at the thought of never hearing your voice again. I know what emptiness is; I know what it feels like to be without you and I can't do that anymore. I know I've been selfish, I know I'm being selfish by wanting you to live - but you're everything to me.
I need you to know how desperately paralyzed I am when I think about not seeing you every day. I need you to know the important things I've realized since I left, I need you to be able to look in my eyes as I tell you everything that I should have been telling you before. I don't want to sit at your grave and whisper these confessions to you - I want you to hear them, I want you to hold my hand. I want you to yell at me and tell me I'm horrid for breaking your heart, I want you to be furious and I don't even care if you stop speaking to me.
You just can't die. I have to know you're out there somewhere, I have to know you're alive. I have to know these things to keep going, even if you won't be with me. I just want you to get up, I'm only asking for you to keep living. That's all I'll ever ask of you.
I've heard people say that you don't know what you have until it's gone more times than I can count but I've never understood it so well. The memory of you teases at my senses, a ghost of a past reality that I'd do anything to return to; I can remember with brilliant clarity the way your arms would wrap around my shoulders and the warm pressure of your lips on my hair." Her voice started to crack, the heaviness of her thoughts finally breaking her monologue into fragmented hiccups of air.
"But I can't remember the way your lips feel against mine, like my body is rejecting the memory in the hopes that it could move on if only I didn't have you to compare someone else to. But that's not true; I couldn't move on - with or without your memory. You're everything to me and if you go, nothing else exists. I need you to get up, James; I need to see the way your eyes light up when you see me. I can feel myself falling apart; piece by piece I'm crumbling to the floor without you. How am I supposed to go on like this?
I can't go on like this, James. I need you; please, wake up. Just shake this off, please. I don't want you to leave me, I don't want to do this without you. Things are changing, I know you know they are; I need you to get through this. I need you at my side, baby, please get up.
There's so much I need to say to you; there are so many things I would die to hear you say. I've missed you something tragic, James; please don't leave me like this, not with all of these things left unsaid.
If there's no getting you out of this, just tell me. Please, just tell me if there's no other way and then you can die. And I'll die too, I promise; I'll die too."

How to reduce your carbon footprint?
April 21, 2017
Carbon dioxide emissions are extremely harmful to everyone. And the emission of this gas is a direct contributor to global warming. Each person in today's modern world is in some way, directly or indirectly contributing to the release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. And there is this concept called a carbon footprint that refers to the amount of CO2 emitted through the activities of individuals. So if you would want to become a more socially and environmentally responsible person, you had better follow these tips on how to reduce your carbon footprint.
- Make sure that the vehicle that you are driving is energy efficient. You should consider purchasing a vehicle that has a good fuel rating if you would like to have a smaller carbon footprint. The burning of fossil fuels, such as gasoline and diesel contribute a lot to the overall global carbon gas emissions. And you should be using a car that does not produce too much carbon emissions.
- You may also want to make use of a gas detector or analyzer for your vehicle. You can use a gas analyzer to check the amount and types of gasses that are coming out of your car's exhaust. This is because the number of certain kinds of gasses, such as carbon monoxide, could be detected by the use of an analyzer. And if you see the presence of high amounts of exhaust gas, you may want to get your car checked; there could be a problem with your vehicle. And those kinds of gasses also contribute to global warming as well.
- To reduce your energy use at home, you must also try to ensure that it is energy efficient. You could install in more energy efficient light fixtures, or even invest in the use of more energy efficient smart appliances as well. The amount of energy that you use in your home could be a huge contributor to your personal carbon footprint. And you would want to reduce your energy use at home by making it more efficient.
- Heating your home also uses up a lot of energy and can also consequently cause an increase in your carbon emissions as well. So you should try to insulate your home well if you would like to use much less gas or electricity to heat or cool it. And as an added bonus of properly insulating your home, you may even get to save money as well as reduce your carbon footprint overall.
- Planes are another big contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions. You may want to avoid flying a lot if you want to reduce your personal carbon footprint. If you really have got to travel by plane, you should just purchase economy class seats to actually lessen your own carbon footprint. Another tip to reduce your carbon footprint when flying is to only fly short distances.
- The kind of food that you eat has a huge impact on your carbon footprint as well. You should only eat produce that is locally sourced. This is because the transportation of food across long distances uses up a lot of fossil fuels. And each time that you buy food that uses up a lot of fossil fuels to produce, you are indirectly contributing to global warming.
What are the benefits of owning a gas detector?
April 21, 2017
There are certain kinds of gasses that you will not be able to detect with your senses alone. You would need a device such as a gas detector if you would like to check if there is the presence of gasses such as carbon monoxide or helium in the air that you are breathing. And this kind of device is more practical than you would think. Any person that is concerned about their health and safety should get a gas detector, especially if they suspect they could be suffering from gas poisoning. There are numerous other benefits to owning a gas detect as well.
The first benefit that you can get from owning a gas detector is the fact that you will be safer from gas poisoning. And gas poisoning is a real and serious threat to your safety. A lot of harmful gasses can be undetectable to your eyes or nose, and the only way to check whether or not those gasses are present in the air that you are breathing is to use a detector. These kinds of devices should offer more than ample protection from gas poisoning. If you use the detector to check whether or not there is a high amount of dangerous gas wherever you are at, you can simply leave. So you may even save your life if you make use of a gas detector.
Second, of all, these kinds of gas detectors are pretty easy to use. You should get a portable gas detector if you would like to own a very convenient to carry one. These devices are designed to be easy to use because they perform very critical functions, especially if you are in an industry that works with a lot of dangerous gasses. You should have no trouble with using one at all if you want to get a gas detector. And they are also rather full-proof devices, and they will not need a lot of maintenance or repair work at all.
Another benefit of owning these devices is that they make a good investment. You will only need to purchase a gas detector once in your life, and you will never need to buy another one again. This is because these devices are actually very durable, some detectors are meant to be even explosion resistant. The fact that they are so durable means that you will not have to worry about breaking your gas detector if you drop it because it is actually resistant to damage from impacts.
Finally, the only really effective way to protect your health is to use a gas detector. Even breathing small amounts of harmful gasses could be bad for your health. You may develop flu-like symptoms if you breathe in too much of gasses such as carbon monoxide. If you would actually like to have better overall health then you had better closely monitored the kinds of gasses that you are breathing in the air around you. The only practical way to do that would be to get a gas detector.
Why should you buy a gas analyzer?
April 21, 2017
A gas analyzer is a type of device that allows you to find out the exact chemical and gas composition of the air around you. It will be able to detect levels of oxygen, carbon monoxide, and many other types of common gasses. You will find that information about the air that you are breathing in is extremely important. There are all sorts of toxic air pollutants or poisonous gasses in the air that you are breathing in, and you may not even know it. A gas analyzer should allow you to stay informed about whatever could be in the air around you.
Take gasses such as nitrogen or carbon monoxide for example. These kinds of gasses are both odorless and colorless, so you will never be able to tell whether or not you are breathing them in. Many kinds of dangerous gasses are invisible to the human senses. However, despite being undetectable to your senses, you will still be in a lot of danger if you inhale too much of those kinds of gasses. You may even suffer from nitrogen gas poisoning, which can be fatal. The only way that you will be able to truly detect those gasses, is to use an analyzer for them.
And gas poisoning can be extremely dangerous. If you take the example of helium or nitrogen, breathing too much of those gasses can have dire consequences. Thousands of people around the world succumb to gas poisoning, simply because they are not able to tell whether or not they are breathing in oxygen or some other type of gas. If you breathe in too much of gasses such as carbon monoxide, you may end up damaging critical parts of your brain. And since your body is not able to processes gasses such as those, you may actually suffocate from breathing in those kinds of gasses. If you would like to be as safe as possible then you had better get a gas analyzer.
These kinds of devices are actually much easier to use than you think. They are designed to be used on the go, so this makes these devices really portable. You can carry them around at home if you would like to analyze the gas composition in different rooms. And if your workplace may have a high presence of dangerous gasses, then you should be carrying a gas analyzer with you to work. You may be able to avoid a lot of incidents of gas poisoning if you have got an analyzer with you.
The only way to truly be safe from gas poisoning is to have an analyzer with you. If you are at an extremely high risk of being exposed to large amounts of gasses such as carbon monoxide or nitrogen, then you had better have a gas analyzer ready with you at all times. You will be in a much better position to be aware of whatever kind of glasses that you are actually breathing in. And in some cases, you may end up avoiding a fatal accident with gas poisoning!
What are the dangers of carbon monoxide?
April 21, 2017
Inhaling carbon monoxide gas is more dangerous than you think. And carbon monoxide can be especially to breathe in because there could be a lot of sources of this gas around your home. In fact, many everyday objects that you encounter could be a potential source of carbon monoxide. So you had better try to find every source of carbon monoxide in your home and try to minimize your risk to them. There are many health dangers that are associated with carbon monoxide inhalation
Both the short-term and long-term effects of carbon monoxide can be particularly debilitating to your health. If you breathe in enough carbon monoxide, you may actually start to feel light-headed and disoriented. And if you breathe too much of it in, it can actually cause you to faint. The long-term effects of carbon monoxide can be especially harmful to you. Without the presence of oxygen in your blood, it is replaced by carbon monoxide, you can actually suffer from brain damage. And that brain damage from carbon monoxide inhalation can impair you for your whole life. In a lot of cases, carbon monoxide inhalation can actually lead to death.
Carbon monoxide inhalation can cause death because it will replace the presence of oxygen in your blood. Your body cannot tell the difference the difference between the atoms of oxygen and carbon monoxide. However, there is a huge difference between those two kinds of gasses. And you will die from carbon monoxide poisoning if you breathe too much of it in.
Carbon monoxide poisoning is particularly dangerous because you are not able to tell whether or not you are breathing in the gas at all. Carbon monoxide is a colorless gas that has no scent. You will never know if there is the presence of carbon monoxide gas in your home or not. This is because there is no way to tell, with your own senses, whether or not there is carbon monoxide present around you. A lot of people succumb to carbon monoxide poisoning simply because they did not know that they were inhaling the gas. They just go to sleep because of the lightheadedness that they get from carbon monoxide poisoning. And they will eventually die from inhaling too much of the gas. They do not even know what is happening because they are unconscious from breathing in carbon monoxide.
Even in small doses, breathing carbon monoxide can still be a cause from many different sorts of health problems. You will experience shortness of breath if you are going to breathe in too much carbon monoxide. And a lot of people, who suffer from flu-like symptoms, may actually be suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning. This is because the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning closely mimic that of the flu.
There are all sorts of dangers from breathing air that has been contaminated with carbon monoxide. So you had better learn how to get rid of breathing in the gas and minimize the risk to yourself and your household.

Comprehensive coverage of biomarker research applied to drug discovery and development
Two key factors have emerged in the race to discover approvable new drugs faster and with fewer resources: biomarkers and in vitro/in vivo correlations (IVIVC). Predictive Approaches in Drug Discovery and Development: Biomarkers and In Vitro/In Vivo Correlations provides comprehensive coverage of how these factors are enhancing the drug pipeline and accelerating development.
An invaluable resource, the book presents essential information on the importance of biomarkers in translational medicine, the clinical applications of biomarkers, relevant regulatory perspectives, and the potential of in vivo research. With each chapter written by one or more expert authors from the global front lines of the pharmaceutical industry and regulatory agencies, the book also incorporates academic research that unites these two fields and describes their applications, from technical lab experiments to strategic management.
Covering many aspects of biomarker research as applied to drug discovery and development, the book brings together state-of-the-art appraisals of the practical utility of "-omics", biochemical, and protein biomarkers with case histories and lessons from successful and unsuccessful real-world applications. Regulatory agency perspectives and initiatives in the United States and around the world are also discussed, as are GLP validation and, safety biomarkers, and proteomic biomarkers.
Biomarkers and IVIVC present unique opportunities for identifying more robust clinical candidates and selecting leads more intelligently, making Predictive Approaches in Drug Discovery and Development a must-have for researchers and professionals in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, as well as for use in advanced graduate and undergraduate courses.
"The ability to correlate in vitro and in vivo biomarker information in the process of drug discovery and development lies at the heart of translational research. The goal is to rapidly translate basic discoveries into clinical applications. This book provides state-of-the-art information on this exciting new research approach." (Doody's, 8 February 2013)
"The text is packed with interesting, comprehensive, and pertinent information, clearly presented with salient points reinforced by inclusion in text boxes . . . This is an admirable textbook for those dealing with drug discovery and development. I enjoyed reading through it and I would recommend it to anyone who has an interest, or is developing an interest, in the field of biomarkers and their, as yet, unfulfilled potential." (ISSX International Society for the Study of Xenobiotics, 1 December 2012)

After work
Maybe I should properly introduce myself, now I'm home and can spend longer.
David Carter, 50 yrs old, divorced about 10 yrs and nobody has been brave or stupid enough to take me on full-time since. The result of my relationship with my ex-wife is three daughters, eldest is 18, and non-identical twins of 16. (We were married two years, do the maths and see if I care.)
The reason for the divorce? We had never lived together before we got married... well, apart from a few days at a stretch, on holiday, etc, and within months of marrying we found that we were both so set in our ways that living together was difficult, then impossible. Less than 6 months after the ceremony I was living 200 yards down the road, sharing responsibility for the kids, but sleeping alone most nights. (Why does everyone wonder if I snore at this point?)
I was working for the railways up there, ticket staff at Manchester Piccadilly, but paying for rent and upkeep on two houses inevitably meant that my head was barely above water most months.
Then I developed an idea with a couple of friends, an internet site where people joined to advertise house-shares, etc, but we put an adult twist on it, never actually saying that it would get you sex but subtly insinuating it.
A month after we set it up I let the others buy me out for enough money to actually buy myself a small terraced house about 10 minutes walk from the kids, and their help in setting up a genuine nudist website rather than the 'porn-u-like' nudist sites.
And, unfortunatly, it was my wifes finding out about my involvement in the 'sex' site that led almost directly to her being my ex-wife. (Funnily enough I didn't find out about her 'boyfriends' until after the divorce.)
She had no problem with the nudist site, whilst she wasn't as fervant as I was she had no problems with nudity either in private or public.
Anyway, a couple of years ago, after a few months of working twelve hour days, thirteen day fortnights, I found myself financially able to take the girls away for two weeks, and we'd hired a holiday flat just outside Sheringham, and I'd fallen in love with the area.
And I'd bought a couple of lottery tickets whilst I was there, and one of them came up.
At the end of the break I delivered the kids home, and got back on a train to lottery HQ.
The cheque was just a normal one, but the figures nearly reached the edge of it, that one I put into my account that she didn't know about (the one that had had £7 in it for ten years), and the other one I got from them gave the £800,000 over and above the millions.
That one I put into the account she did know about, and (I'm pretty sure) still kept her online eye on.
(Its only fair to point out that we still loved each other, we just couldn't live together, and hadn't had sex since well before the divorce.)
I returned to Sheringham, and on the same day bought (almost sight unseen) a nice big house about 10 minutes from the town centre,
Then up to Manchester, treating myself to first class, and straight round to the kids and their mum.
I knew that their landlord was thinking of selling, so I asked her if she wanted to own it. She asked how much I could afford, I gave her a figure and she told me about a 4 bedroom house near her parents for slightly less, so we went off to the agents and bought it.
Two houses in one day...sounds good.
Then I told her I was moving to Norfolk. She wasn't bothered, she had a boyfriend who lived seperatly (and yes, I do wonder if we'd still be together if we'd always lived apart), but the girls weren't too happy.But there's things that money can buy, and promises of laptops with webcams so we could talk each night eased the pain of seperation.
(Get real, these were teenage girls, I'd probably get more contact with them this way than if we lived in the same house...)
The next day I went into work and gave in my notice.
So I moved.
Every school holiday I'd get visited, sometimes just the girls, a few times the ex as well, and she raised suspicion that I didn't seem to be working.
So when there was talk in the local paper of Sheringham losing its ticket office I offered to take it over, doing a few hours a day free, and actually paying for anyone covering me.
Plus, as I say, I was sitting at home playing with ebay, and Amazon, and play.com all day...
Then my daughter arrived.
Not really unexpected, her mum had rung up following a blazing row between them saying I was welcome to the.... well, I'll let you guess, but she gave the impression that Cath was the most idle person on the planet and not nice either.
By the time she'd rung Cath had been missing from her home for about eight hours, and was walking along the road.
So I was able to tell her where Cath was, and said I'd open communication between them later.
Talking of Cath, I forgot the milk.
Better go get it, and then I can add more later in peace.

Trombone Shorty steals the show at Monterey Jazz Festival
There are 11 comments on the Monterey County Herald story from Sep 19, 2010, titled Trombone Shorty steals the show at Monterey Jazz Festival. In it, Monterey County Herald reports that:Troy "Trombone Shorty" Andrews cheers on guitarist Pete Murano on Saturday at the Monterey Jazz Festival.
Join the discussion below, or Read more at Monterey County Herald.

You article got it right, not only did Trombone Shorty and Olrleans Avenue, steal the show, the wrapped in up in a musical package of Supafunk memory and gave us who where there a gift we will treasure for years. Incredible. He owned the Festival
#2 Sep 19, 2010
The reason you and everyone elese loved Trombone Shorty so muc was because the Jazz Festival is BORING! He was the only performer who knows how to play what WHItE PEOLPE like. Medleys of recognizable songs played with mucho gusto. He is a showman and a crowd pleaser. The rest of the Jazz Fest acts will put you to sleep. I have a feeling the the Monterey Jazz Fest will slowly (remember, this is a "serious" music festival) go in the direction of the hugely popluar New Orleans Jazz & Hertitage festival. Big acts outside of the jazz vein will be welcomed and loved. Trombone Shorty helped set a new direction to a tired lineup.
Since: Sep 09
#3 Sep 19, 2010
Did you attend the jazz festival? Because I would have to say you're wrong. Especially that comment about what white people like. I'm white. You do NOT speak for me. Your comments are ridiculously insulting.
#4 Sep 19, 2010
Hey SunnyCali, here is a great site for you.
Hope you are not too offended.
#5 Sep 19, 2010
Thank you, Tim Jackson, for always giving us a wonderful surprise every year. Trombone Shorty and Orleans Avenue had more energy and talent than anyone I have heard in years. Saturday afternoon has traditionally been more blues and rock than the rest of the festival. Thanks for not changing that. When a 23 year old and his band can get a 56 year old woman like me getting my funky side on, it's alright with me.
#6 Sep 19, 2010
my point exactly
Since: Sep 09
#7 Sep 19, 2010
Now that's hysterical! Thank you.
"White people can do powerful things with their eyes: casting judgment, indicating scorn, and obnoxiously rolling them when someone says something they dont agree with. Yet in spite of these powers, they are not immune to the dangers of the sun. So white people must wear sunglasses. But what may surprise you is that while white people will spend upwards of three months finding a perfect pair of unique prescription glasses, they have no such requirement for sunglasses.
Right now, all white people are either wearing or coveting a pair of Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses.
These sunglasses are so popular now that you cannot swing a canvas bag at a farmers market without hitting a pair. In fact, at outdoor gatherings you should count the number of Wayfarers so you can determine exactly how white the event is. If you see no Wayfarers you are either at Country music concert or you are indoors."
#8 Sep 19, 2010
Yup! Trombone Shorty blew the doors off the Arena yesterday. Not only was his personal performance one of the best I've EVER seen and heard but his group rocked the house. Just plain FUNKY!!
Such a great talent wrapped in such a young audience friendly guy. I can't wait to get some of his tunes.
As for the MJF...I'll be happy to have the chance to volunteer again for years to come. Gotta go now...gonna see Harry!
#9 Sep 19, 2010
I saw them both...and as good as Shorty was, Delbert always steals it for me. The man has a gift.
Shorty is going to have a great career - but Delbert is still at the top of his game and his band is the best in the world.
'Course they're all friends of mine so I might be biased.=:-O

Shorty is a great horn player and singer. the music was your basic dirty dozen jazz band on steroids mixing R&B ,jazz and funk . Good dance music, but we were packed into the garden stage like sardines with people even crawling up into the trees to listen. Saturday the grounds were way too crowded.
Ahmad jamal , Septeto nacional de cuba , Chick Corea , angelique kidgo, Dianne Reeves, Sachel vasandani, Roy Hargrove and the Berkeley school band were awesome. Sorry I missed Delbert and some others.
It's all good

I love jazz and go to the Monterey Jazz Festival every year. I'm not much of a blues fan, so I just tolerate it during the Saturday afternoon Garden Stage performances. But, a year or two ago, when Ruthie Foster performed, I had a change of heart. When Trombone Shorty performed, even though he added some famiiliar R & B tunes, I loved his energy and appreciate New Orleans jazz much more now. By the way, I was there when the fellow behind me threw the condom on stage when Shorty was singing Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On", so Beth, you must have been standing/sitting right next to me. Also, Beth, my birthday is Sept 17, so, like you, I celebrate my birthday every year at the Jazz Festival too. Happy Birthday to you too!!!

This paper is devoted for presenting new neutrosophic similarity measures between neutrosophic graphs. We proposetwo ways to determine the neutrosophic distance between neutrosophic vertex graphs. The two neutrosophic distances are based on the Haussdorff distance,and a robust modified variant of the Haussdorff distance, moreover we show that they both satisfy the metric distance measure axioms. Furthermore, a similarity measure between neutrosophic edge graphs that is based on a probabilistic variant of Haussdorff distance is introduced. The aim is to use those measures for the purpose of matching neutrosophic graphs whose structure can be described in the neutrosophic domain.

I am honored to have assumed the mantle of leadership of the National Black Arts Festival (NBAF) during it 27th year of providing stellar, world-class multidisciplinary programs featuring the arts and artists of African descent.
It has been a nearly three-decade-long journey during which NBAF has transformed from a three-day to a ten-day outdoor festival and now to a three-month program season. During the journey, we have been recognized and celebrated within and outside of Atlanta as an economic and cultural driver for the city, as an engaged collaborator and strategic partner with local, national and international cultural and educational organizations, as a supporter of artists of all ages and as a resource and a source of exposure and access for our children, teens and young adults.
After 27 years of consistently offering programs and experiences that are educational, enriching and entertaining to diverse audiences of every age and cultural background, of supporting, presenting, showcasing and celebrating the incredibly rich and diverse art forms and artists of the African Diaspora, we have cause for celebration as we march toward our milestone 30th anniversary in 2018. In 2008, the United States Congress proclaimed NBAF as important to the "cultural fabric of greater Atlanta and all of America." We are uniquely positioned, and it is on this platform that we continue to build for the future.
Today our three-month program season offers our audiences more and greater opportunities for education, enrichment and entertainment. This new direction and format of spotlighting one discipline and offering an extended program season was initiated last year, and it offers NBAF more opportunities to engage world-class artistic talent, reach larger audiences and establish, deepen and extend cultural and educational partnerships within and outside of Atlanta.
The 2015 program season, which launches in mid-July with programming through mid-September, is focused on dance. We go deep into the cultural history and legacy of dance from the 18th to the 21st centuries with a symposium and a film series, world-class performances, workshops and demonstrations, discussions and conversations that shine a spotlight on dance and the dancers, choreographers and dance companies – the luminaries and trailblazers – who shaped and defined the discipline. Participation and interactivity are this season's hallmarks – to have a full and enriching experience of dance, you have to get up and dance. It's just not as much fun sitting on the sidelines!
Our 2015 program season was developed in concert with dance and film historians, scholars and practitioners within and outside of the region. As in the past, partnerships, alliances and engagement with a broad base of cultural and educational organizations has been key. Morehouse College, Duke University, the High Museum of Art, the Rialto Center for the Arts at Georgia State University, Center for Civil and Human Rights, Center Stage Theater, Georgia Tech Office of the Arts, Hammonds House Museum, Youth Speaks and many others join NBAF as partners, collaborators and venues in the 2015 season.
In 2015, and beyond, NBAF will continue to be a catalyst for and a participant in creative and strategic partnerships and alliances as we encourage and support the presentation of new work, continue to offer a lens into the rich cultural history and legacy of people of African descent and into the creative process through performances, workshops and demonstrations, to draw extraordinary artistic talent to Atlanta and to showcase and nurture local talent in all disciplines. Through programs that support artists and creative forms of expression, we will encourage and support the presentation of new work and to bring arts into our schools in ways that nurture the creativity of our children.
Thank you to our partners, sponsors and volunteers and to our corporate, government, foundation and individual supporters, among them our dedicated Board of Directors, who enable us to realize our mission and to continue our good work.
Grace C. Stanislaus
Executive Director, NBAF

"Have boots, will travel" was the headline on an interview in these pages seven years ago with Rhys Weston, once of Arsenal and Wales but, in the summer of 2007, a 26-year-old out-of-work footballer. After six years and two promotions at Cardiff City, and a brief spell in Norway, Weston had just been released by Port Vale and was wondering what the future held for him.
The headline proved prescient. Weston's next move was a short one, to Walsall, where he had three successful years, but then he began travelling – to Scotland, where he won promotion with Dundee, Iceland, then Malaysia. This summer he came home, literally so, signing for AFC Wimbledon, whose Kingsmeadow ground is less than a mile from Kingston Hospital where the defender was born.
It was time to catch up. We met in a café in East Molesey, opposite Hampton Court, and round the corner from where he grew up. Ironically, as Weston returns to Surrey, his parents have upped sticks, the former publicans moving to north Wales to start a new life running a tea room. Weston, too, is beginning a new career. The move to Wimbledon has not worked out as hoped and he is on loan to Sutton United, of the Conference South, taking the first steps towards playing part-time and working in the real world.
"League Two was a wake-up call for me," he said. "I've been playing centre-half [abroad], but I'm not the biggest in terms of central defenders – I played most of my career in England at right-back – and found it tough."
Opponents played on Weston's relative lack of height (he's six foot, so no midget, but League Two centre-forwards tend to be bigger), results suffered, and Weston lost his place before he had time to adapt. "I'm grateful for the opportunity at Wimbledon, Neil [manager Neil Ardley, a former Cardiff team-mate] has been great with me, they are a fantastic bunch and I genuinely want them to do well, but if I'm not playing it is no good to anyone.
"I've always played, I want to play, and at 33 I need to play, hence the reason I am at Sutton, looking to get some games in and moving towards the next stage of my life. I need to start laying foundations for when I hang up my boots."
At 33 most people's careers are beginning to take off. But not footballers. For the gilded few that is irrelevant, they have earned enough never to work again. But most, including Weston, have not and there are not enough coaching and punditry jobs to employ the hundreds who leave the game every year. "I should have addressed this earlier," Weston admits, "but another challenge always came up."
The subject did crop up when we met seven years ago, with Weston suggesting he would take a business management course. He looks mildly sheepish when I remind him. "I enrolled, and lasted six weeks. I just found it so tedious. I understand you have to work, and study, but I wasn't enjoying it and I couldn't commit to something I didn't enjoy. It was like when I had guitar lessons as a kid, if you don't practise what is the point?"
Fortunately, two friends who run an online company marketing golf tourism, yourgolftravel.com, have offered Weston the chance to experience life outside football's bubble. "I've considered going back to study, but I have an opportunity to work and learn at a successful company. What I cannot do is both as I still want to play football, which will be my main source of income for a while."
Weston is playing as a holding midfielder for Sutton, who are unlikely to catch the leaders Bromley, but are in line for a play-off place. Some might regard the Conference South as something of a comedown for someone who learnt his trade at Highbury's marble halls and played with Thierry Henry and Ryan Giggs, but Weston's experiences overseas have left him immune to complaints about conditions and infrastructure.
"In Malaysia the pitches were rutted, the stadia dilapidated, everyone just got on with it. We had a 35,000-capacity stadium but the floodlights were not regulation height so we had to play on Monday or Friday at 4pm. So we had gates of 400 – who would go then, in the middle of the day?
"I played for Sabah, in Borneo. We flew to all the away games. I didn't find it particularly difficult, other than the heat. It reached 42C, with 8 per cent humidity so we trained at nine in the morning. David McCreery [the ex-Manchester United player] was manager, part of my role was to bring the other lads along and raise the professionalism. I embraced that and felt I was one of the fittest in the squad." But unlike England, who play in the Amazon in June, Weston had time to acclimatise. "I went in November, the season started in January."
Iceland was much colder – but with better facilities. "It was amazing. There are only 300,000 people in Iceland with 12 teams in the top league and 10 of them have full indoor 3G facilities. They are the hubs of their communities. The team I was at had teams for basketball, handball and so on. There were always kids running about. I really enjoyed it."
Weston may go abroad again, he is working on his coaching qualifications to give him that option. Or he may become a London commuter for the first time since he was a YTS boy catching the train into London, and thence to Highbury, where he would join the likes of Ashley Cole, alongside whom he made his Arsenal debut in November 1999, and Steve Sidwell on the bus to the training ground.
Few players have touched the heights that Cole has achieved, and while Sidwell never played for Arsenal he has flourished since. But studying the names for a planned reunion of that YTS group, it is noticeable how few sustained a career in the game as long as Weston has.
Before the interview I jotted down his career stats in my notebook. He notices it and is surprised to see he has played 445 senior games. "I'm quite proud of that," he says, and so he should be. But now a new challenge dawns.
"I'm excited by the prospect of doing something different, it's daunting as well, there is trepidation, but hopefully it will work out as I picture it in my head."Reuse content

Elmer John Smith (September 21, 1892 – August 3, 1984) born in Sandusky, Ohio was an outfielder for the Cleveland Indians (1914–16, 1917 and 1919–21), Washington Senators (1916–17), Boston Red Sox (1922), New York Yankees (1922–23) and Cincinnati Reds (1925).
His World War I draft registration card shows that he was born in 1893 not 1892. But the information is not in the same handwriting as his signature. His Social Security Death Index shows a birth year of 1892.
He helped the Indians win the 1920 World Series and the Yankees win the 1922 American League Pennant and 1923 World Series. Smith's grand slam in Game 5 of the 1920 series was the first in World Series history.[1]
In 10 seasons he played in 1,012 Games and had 3,195 At Bats, 469 Runs, 881 Hits, 181 Doubles, 62 Triples, 70 Home Runs, 541 RBI, 54 Stolen Bases, 319 Walks, .276 Batting Average, .344 On-base percentage, .437 Slugging Percentage, 1,396 Total Bases and 99 Sacrifice Hits.
He died in Columbia, Kentucky at the age of 91 from emphysema.[2]

UPDATE 4-U.S. auto sales growth slows in April; Detroit gains ground
* Slowest monthly growth pace for U.S. auto sales since October
* Demand for pickup trucks, SUVs helps Detroit automakers
* Sales slightly below expectations but still strong -analyst
* GM, Chrysler's April U.S. sales rise by 11 pct
* Toyota sales slip 1.1 percent
By Bernie Woodall and Deepa Seetharaman
DETROIT, May 1 (Reuters) - U.S. April auto sales slowed to their lowest monthly pace since last autumn as foreign automakers reported lackluster results, and sales to commercial customers slid.
For the first time since last October, U.S. monthly auto sales dipped below 15 million vehicles on a seasonally adjusted annualized rate. Research firm Autodata Corp reported industrywide U.S. sales came in at a rate of 14.92 million vehicles in April.
"Sales are coming in a little bit below expectations, but still quite strong," said Alec Gutierrez, analyst with Kelley Blue Book. "As we've seen all year and the last couple of years, it looks as though the auto industry remains one of the few bright spots in the broader economy ... in addition to housing." Continued...

KB ID 0001211 Dtd 24/06/16
Note: This is not an exhaustive list, but it's what I use when securing Remote Desktop Services, (Terminal Services) servers.┬ĀSome of these settings are ONLY for Server 2012 R2 and later. If you have any settings you think are omitted, please comment below.
User Access To RDS
If you want to create a Domain security group for RDS users than please do so. BE AWARE the 'Remote Desktop Users' group you see in Active Directory Users and Computers, (in the built in OU) is for access to Domain Controllers Only! In all the examples I use below I am allowing access to 'Domain Users'.
If you log onto the RDS server itself > Windows Key+R > systm.cpl > Remote ┬Ā> Remote Desktop > Select Users > Add as appropriate.
I had a situation where everyone worked apart from one user, who got this error;
The connection was denied because the user account is not authorised for remote login.
This user was a member┬Āof domain users, and all the normal boxes were ticked, I had to add 'Domain Users' AGAIN via Group Policy before the problem went away?
GPO Location
Group Policy
Stop Group Policy Applying to Domain Administrators
Restricting users is fine but if you create a GPO and link it to your RDS servers, and┬Āenable 'loopback processing', then the policy will apply to the domain administrator, and members of the domain administrators group. To stop that happening, you need to 'Deny: Apply group policy' to the users/groups that you DON'T want the policy being applied to;
Computer Policies
Stop Server Manager Launching at Logon
(Note: to remove the Server Manager shortcut from the task bar see below)
GPO Location
Setting: Enabled
Configure Group Policy Loopback Processing
The reason you do this is, a lot of the policies you want to apply are 'user policies' and the group policy you link to your RDS servers is linked to a domain/site/OU that contains Computer objects. If you enable loopback processing you can configure user settings in the same policy and they get applied to users logging┬Āonto those computers the policy is linked to. This is perfect for Remote Desktop Services.
GPO Location
Setting: Enabled
User Policies
Prevent/Hide Access to Drives
I hide access to the drives that are on the RDS server itself, and leave the rest because most people still have mapped drives and network drives they want access to.
GPO Location
Setting: Enabled
Prevent/Hide Access to┬ĀControl Applications┬Ā
There is a policy that blocks access to applications you specify, but I prefer to block ALL applications except the ones I specify, and I only ever allow access to Devices and Printers.
GPO Location
Setting: Enabled
Setting: Microsoft.DevicesAndPrinters
Note: For a list of all applications, search for 'Canonical names for Control Panel Items'.
Remove Shut Down / Restart, Sleep and Hibernate
For obvious reasons you don't want your users to have the ability to shut down the server.

Do you have aspects of your life that aren't balanced? Too much anxiety or stress, habits that you seem to have no control over, repetitive behaviour or simply very little willpower to make things change?
You may have had your issues for a while and may have contemplated getting help - at the point where people actively seek help they will really reap the benefits of Therapy.
I am passionate about helping people through Hypnotherapy I am very much committed to my own ongoing personal change and self-development. This has accelerated more recently through actively helping people to change areas of their lives. I have lost weight myself (3 stone) and have changed many aspects of my life. I enjoy most areas of my life now and it wasn't always so.
A great deal of this is about living in the moment and hand in hand with that, you can become strong and lose your fears.
When choosing a hypnotherapist I encourage you to call them. I cannot stress this strongly enough. You may need to pluck up the courage and may feel embarrassed about calling but we are helping people all the time and there is really no need to feel embarrassed. You need good rapport with any therapist in order for it to work well. I encourage all potential clients to call me for a chat about what they are trying to achieve. Some people believe that they won't respond to hypnosis or even believe that they can't be hypnotised. I have never found anyone that couldn't be hypnotised. I have found that people can be very surprised about the levels of relaxation they can achieve. Often people who claim that they can't relax can achieve very good levels of relaxation relatively easily. Learning to relax properly is one skill that everyone should acquire.
Before I became a hypnotherapist I probably had the same misapprehensions as most people about hypnosis and hypnotherapy. I discovered that it really is a form of altered consciousness and that stage hypnotism is very misleading and is completely different from hypnotherapy. You usually remember everything that the hypnotherapist talks about and it is a bit like a lucid daydream. Sometimes my own results have been dramatic but most of all I enjoy seeing people change for themselves and to see the pure joy on their faces after successful therapy is immensely rewarding.
There have been enough personal challenges in my life to be attuned to a great many of my clients.
I encourage people to visit my website which is in a constant state of development. There are at least 30 reviews and this is growing all the time. ollin.co.uk/reviews/
Most of all call or email me to discuss how I might help you.
Diploma in Clinical Hypnosis - Dip Hyp
GHR Registered Hypnotherapist
GQHP - General qualification in Hypnotherapy Practice
I have managed teams of people and ran a volunteer group for a number of years.
My passion for hypnosis developed following mid life changes and career changes. I am a Dad - my son is now grown up (22) and lives nearby in Liverpool.
I have had life experiences that help me attune to my clients and I believe this makes me a better therapist. I have also personally experienced CBT, Person centred, and bereavement counselling.
My Web site has a lot of information written directly by me and I have published a number of articles on the Hypnotherapy Directory.
I am particularly attuned to the complexities of Mid life issues. Anxiety, Depression, Change management, grief, relationship issues and pain management.
I also combine some life coaching exercises with Hypnotherapy. I have considerable experience of training and coaching. I can also employ Non Hypnotic techniques such as NLP and EFT.
I have a son (23) and have used hypnotherapy with all ages - children and adults.
Whatever ideas you have then please call me to discuss them. If I don't think seeing me is the right course for you I will certainly tell you.
A session generally lasts about an hour with half an hour added for discussion and consultation. Please therefore allow a full hour and a half (90 minutes) I do not like to rush the session - it should be very relaxed.
Most sessions are currently £55 with concessions for pre-booking multiple sessions ( - see below) available via my web site and selected press, Facebook or other Internet offers. I do not promote very often and most customers will pay the full price - i.e £55 (One hour hypnosis and approx 30 minutes chat before and after)
Money Back Guarantee Multiple Sessions / Special offers
If you pre pay for multiple sessions and decide that you don't wish to continue then provided you don't cancel an appointment last minute, I will refund fees as follows: -
3 sessions - Paid for in Advance (£150) - Equivalent to £50 a session
1st Session - £59
2nd Session - £59
3rd Session - £32 (Must be paid for at 2nd session to get the discount

Texas cop kills man charging with knife in-hand
Officers were investigating a disturbance call when the man charged at them and was shot several times
By Julie Fancher
The Dallas Morning News
GARLAND, Texas — The man who was shot by a Garland police officer Friday afternoon has died, police said.
His name has not yet been released pending next of kin notification, but police said he is about 30 years old.
Police spokesman Mike Hatfield said officers responded to a disturbance around 4 p.m. outside the Hiep Thai Market in the 3300 block of West Walnut Street, near Jupiter Road.
Hatfield said a man armed with a knife confronted a customer outside the store. When officers arrived, Hatfield said the man charged at the officer.
The officer shot at the suspect several times, Hatfield said.
The man, who has not been identified, was taken to The Medical Center of Plano.
The officer was not injured, Hatfield said. He said the officer, who has been with the department for 10 years, will be placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation.

On a warm day last September, Julie Lawson, Director of Trash Free Maryland, sat on a boat, motoring from a dock in Annapolis. She was surrounded by guests she had invited, and as she spoke to them, a mason jar full of algae-thick water sloshed in her hand with every gesture.
Looking more closely at the jar, several small flecks of white floated at the surface, occasionally sticking to the side of the glass. They were pieces of microplastic—degraded bits of waste less than five millimeters in size. Microplastic is a potential threat to marine life, which can mistake pieces of waste for food. It can also absorb and release harmful chemicals.
"It's funny, I actually started out by caring about trash in the water, and most of the time now all I do is talk about neighborhoods," Lawson said.
The previous fall, Lawson had collected several similar samples from the Chesapeake Bay with grant support by the Chesapeake Bay Trust and with the help of Stiv Wilson, Campaign Director of The Story of Stuff Project. The result was a visual demonstration of what happens when trash on land gets washed into streams, rivers, and ultimately the Bay and the ocean.
Returning to the water after winning a grant from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, Lawson, Wilson and Dr. Chelsea Rochman, an ecotoxicologist and postdoctoral fellow with the University of California, Davis, included more sites from throughout the Bay, in order to obtain 60 samples. Half of the samples would be sent to an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) lab for scientific analysis.
The process, in a protocol developed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), uses what's called a manta trawl with a 20x60-centimeter opening and a 333-micron mesh net to skim the water surface for exactly 15 minutes at a time.
"Then I sampled wastewater that drains into the bay from from urban runoff, agricultural runoff and wastewater treatment plants to see if there was microplastic in these sources—and if the type and shape matched with what we saw in the Bay," said Rochman, who also sampled oysters last summer.
The manta trawl samples include everything from underwater grasses and fish eggs to a pair of sunglasses and a lighter. Pulling on plastic gloves that day in September, Lawson fought her nerves while handling a jellyfish that ended up in one jar. She didn't get stung.
Lawson said the research will help determine how much plastic is in the Chesapeake Bay, which would set a baseline to help determine if the level of pollution is going up or down. They also want to know the types of plastic, which would provide insight into where that plastic is coming from.
"Is it film? Is it microbeads?" Lawson said. "What kind of chemical is it contaminated with?"
Lawson expects to have lab results from the trawl later this year. The last phase of their study will examine the digestive tracts of fish species frequently caught by fishermen, in order to determine how much plastic the animals are consuming.

Declining pollution, recovering fish populations and protected lands are signs of improving health for the Potomac River, according to the Potomac Conservancy's ninth annual State of the Nation's River report.
In 2012, American Rivers listed the Potomac as the nation's most endangered river. But the river's latest grade of "B-"—up from a "C" in 2013 and a "D" in 2011—indicates slow but steady progress on the waterway's path to recovery. Nutrient and sediment pollution has decreased, fish like shad and white perch are returning to the waterway and more than a quarter of the land in the Potomac region is protected from development.
"Not all is well with our Nation's River, however," the report states. The fastest growing source of pollution into both the Potomac River and Chesapeake Bay is stormwater runoff—rainfall that picks up pollutants as it flows across roads, parking lots, lawns and golf courses and carries them into rivers and streams, threatening marine life and human health. With millions expected to move to the Potomac region in the coming decades, an increase in polluted runoff threatens to offset much of the progress made so far.
According to the Conservancy, approaches like streamside forest buffers, green infrastructure, mixed-use communities and low-impact development could help support the river on its path toward recovery.
Less than 15 years ago, an exotic green beetle was discovered in southeastern Michigan. In the years that followed, the metallic insect that is no more than half an inch long spread into 24 more states—including five in the Chesapeake Bay watershed—and now threaten millions of native ash trees that fall sick and die when the insect's larvae feed on the tissue underneath their bark.
The emerald ash borer likely arrived in the United States on wood packing material carried on airplanes or cargo ships from its native China. While the insects can fly at least half a mile from where they emerge as adults, it is the movement of larvae-laden wood that is thought to be the cause of many emerald ash borer infestations. As a result, the shipment of ash trees and logs is regulated, and transporting firewood outside of quarantined areas is illegal.
Such precautions are necessary because of the impact the emerald ash borer can have on forests. As larvae feed on the nutrient-rich inner bark of ash trees, they disrupt the trees' ability to move food and water from its roots to its leaves. Once a tree is infested with emerald ash borer larvae, one-third to one-half of its branches may die within a year. Most of its canopy may be dead within two years, with the entire tree dead in three to four.
Ash trees can be found in almost all parts of the United States. All North American ash trees are susceptible to infestation, which means countless forests are susceptible to the loss of a species that supports the ecosystem's protection of clean air, water and wildlife habitat. While native trees could fill the gaps left by dead ash, invasive plants could also spread in response to new light levels. Even the makeup of the surrounding soil may change, as ash trees are "dynamic accumulators" that gather calcium from the soil around them.
The economic impacts of the emerald ash borer are significant. First, there are costs to losing trees. The U.S. Forest Service estimates the eight billion ash trees on U.S. timberlands to be valued at $282.25 billion. Then, there are costs to mitigating the damage the insect has done. The Forest Service has predicted that an expanding infestation through 2019 will warrant the treatment, removal and replacement of more than 17 million ash trees, with an estimated price tag of $10.7 billion.
But the Forest Service has also explored an impressive number of emerald ash borer control and management methods. Experts have searched for effective predators, parasitoids and pathogens that could act as biological controls, evaluated the efficacy of insecticides injected into trunks of infested trees and explored the development of genetic hybrids that would integrate the resistance of Asian ash tree species into those native to North America. Experts have also conducted research into ridding trees of larvae by submerging infested logs under water, treating infested logs with chemicals and removing the bark of infested logs that could otherwise be sent to sawmills and manufacturing plants to be used for lumber, railroad ties and other value-added products.
In light of the extensive research that has been done in the years since the emerald ash borer was first found in the United States, the most important thing for individuals to remember is to follow regulatory guidelines for moving ash trees, logs and firewood and to report potential infestations to your local Cooperative Extension Service office. According to the Forest Service, making a large investment in understanding and controlling the spread of this invasive insect now could slow the expansion and postpone the ultimate costs of the emerald ash borer.

The official start of spring may have already passed, but one of the unofficial signs of the season arrived when the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) redeployed its final Chesapeake Bay Interpretive Buoy System (CBIBS) buoy today. All ten buoys—located along the Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail—are now collecting and transmitting real-time data about conditions in the Chesapeake Bay.
CBIBS buoys offer valuable information to sailors, kayakers and others looking for information on wind speed, currents, wave heights and local conditions before heading out on the water. In addition to water and weather conditions, the buoy data provides a snapshot into what is happening in and around the Bay, including information on water temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen.
To learn more about the buoys and the technicians that support them, watch our From the Field video:
All of the data collected by the CBIBS buoys is free to the public and can be accessed online, by phone at (877) 286-9229 and via a mobile app.

If you have the travel bug, and would like to continue your teaching career in the Far East or Middle East, then Teachanywhere has the perfect role for you.
It is no doubt a difficult task; finding opportunities, securing interviews and re-locating, but that is why we are here to help you through every step of the way! The transition to the classroom and teaching methods of another country could be that change that you were looking for.
Here are a few tips to get you on your way:
Open-mindedness & an appetite to learn about other cultures
Adapting to life abroad is the first and most important factor to consider. Getting to know about the local language, customs and behavioural norms will help you to settle in and make the most of your experience. Quite often, the students will be from a mixed background as well, so a desire to embrace other cultures and fully immerse yourself would be a solid foundation!
Naturally; living in a different country will come with a certain amount of change. A different education system and different working practices will no doubt require some flexibility! Therefore be prepared to alter your approach in order to get the most out of it! While it is not essential to speak the native language, being able to interact and communicate with fellow staff and students is essential in building your reputation at the school.
You will need to have at least a Bachelor's degree, and the relevant teaching qualifications for the roles that you apply to. Our specialist Consultants will be able to advise the exact requirements for different countries and each position that we are recruiting for. Securing your Visa is paramount as well; and our consultants are at hand to provide you the best support and advice every step of the way.
Does this sound like you? Search and apply for a role today, or contact one of our dedicated recruitment consultants for more information.

|Interesting, a tech is working on one of these wonderful washers in a tech only forum....here is his reply to the same problem on the same unit, thought might be worth posting in here.
"Followup: i tried the door and that was not the problem....turned out to be a broken push-to-start switch. I thought it was a momentary switch, but if you held it in the unit would run. The new switch was a click-click positive on/off type, pretty flimsy looking. It's hard to figure why one of these would fail in mid-cycle."

Bresnan to Smith, SIX, all the way! He's connected with this one. Was dropped short by Bresnan and Smith stayed on the back foot to launch it over midwicket
Bresnan to Smith, SIX, and another! He's cleared the ropes with a brilliant short-arm pull, was a short again from Bresnan and Smith manages to clear Stokes a deep square-leg
Swann to Hyatt, SIX, that'll help! First boundary since the powerplay. Hyatt put his left leg down the track and hammered this straight back over Swann's head, the ball landing several metres beyond the boundary
Swann to Hyatt, SIX, flighted again, but this one has disappeared over deep midwicket! Really well played by Hyatt. He got plenty of power into the slog sweep but didn't over hit it
Patel to Charles, SIX, he's hit that one! Charles collects the third six in the last ten deliveries with a good thump over long on. He hadn't hit a boundary since the fourth over before this one
