Many people are asking questions about the East Mission Flats Repository near Cataldo, Idaho. In August, Mathy Stanislaus, EPA's Assistant Administrator for the Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response, visited the Bunker Hill Superfund site to consider whether a moratorium on the East Mission Flats Repository was appropriate. Mr. Stanislaus recently made his decision on development of the East Mission Flats repository, and a summary is provided below.
The East Mission Flats Superfund Repository in Cataldo, Idaho, has received the "go-ahead" for further development and construction. The final decision to allow the project to move forward was made by Mathy Stanislaus, Assistant Administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response. Mr. Stanislaus visited the Bunker Hill Superfund site on August 18 and 19 at the request of Administrator Jackson. The purpose of his visit was to meet with local stakeholders and directly assess the important Superfund cleanup work EPA is performing with other agencies and the local community.
During his visit, Mr. Stanislaus met with people who are interested in the development of the East Mission Flats Repository. He heard from local residents who strongly oppose the repository and from local residents who support the need for siting repositories, including the East Mission Flats Repository, so that residential cleanups continue as quickly as possible. Mr. Stanislaus reviewed the OIG findings, including their acceptance of EPA's corrective action plan, and heard from the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ). During the visit, Mr. Stanislaus indicated that he would carefully review the East Mission Flats Repository to determine if its development should be delayed or stopped.
The East Mission Flats Repository will cover 14 acres near Interstate 90 in Cataldo. It is being constructed by DEQ and EPA to contain contaminated soil from property cleanups in the Coeur d'Alene River Basin.
While it is appropriate for the agencies to continue developing the East Mission Flats Repository as designed, Mr. Stanislaus stated that he agreed with EPA's Office of Inspector General's (OIG) recommendation to develop an enhanced monitoring plan. "It is necessary to establish an aggressive monitoring plan," stated Mr. Stanislaus, "to verify the design and modeling conclusions."
In response to the OIG recommendation, EPA and DEQ are developing an enhanced monitoring plan that consists of collecting additional information about how groundwater moves during flood events and potential moisture conditions in the repository waste mass. As part of the plan, additional monitoring wells will be installed within the waste soil mass, and water levels and water quality will be monitored if and when the repository becomes saturated. These actions will help ensure that an early warning system is in place to identify any possible problems. If the monitoring well data indicate an increase above background in metals concentrations in groundwater, corrective action would be initiated immediately. This could include remedies such as installation of drainage or aeration systems, or water extraction systems. This also could include other remedies up to and including discontinuing all waste disposal at the East Mission Flats Repository until the source of the problem is identified. In this instance, continuation of disposal at the East Mission Flats Repository would occur only if corrective actions could be implemented to maintain protection of human health and the environment.
A summary of the EMF Repository's enhanced monitoring plan will be made available for public review and comment in October. The public review draft will be posted on the Internet and notification will be made through email and post card mailings. The agencies welcome your comments during this time and plan to host a public open house during the public comment period to answer any questions you may have about the EMF Repository. Information about the public open house will be provided soon. The data collected as part of the EMF Repository's monitoring plan will be shared with the public in a number of ways. The types of data that will be collected include water levels, pH, metals concentrations in groundwater, and moisture conditions within the repository waste mass. The water quality data will be publicly available on a quarterly basis via the EPA's water quality exchange website. The website is publicly accessible and a link to the website will be placed on the EPA EMF Repository website. Annual repository operation reports, which include data summaries, also will be posted on the EMF website when completed.
Contaminated soils will be disposed of at the EMF Repository until the end of the construction season this year, which is anticipated to be November but depends on dry weather. When fully constructed, the East Mission Flats Repository is expected to safely contain 445,000 cubic yards of waste soils from Basin property cleanups.
Developing repository sites within the Bunker Hill Superfund site remains an important priority and a way to greatly reduce health hazards in the Coeur d'Alene Basin. The need to develop additional repositories has become even more critical now that residential cleanup has been accelerated with additional American Recovery and Reinvestment Act resources. In response to comments from stakeholders during his visit and to help the Bunker Hill site address this growing need, Mr. Stanislaus authorized the Superfund National Program Manager to provide additional resources to the Bunker Hill site for the evaluation of multiple, future repository locations rather than just one at a time so that the cleanup of residential areas can continue unabated.
In addition to considering repository technical issues, EPA also is continuing to look for new ways to improve the Bunker Hill public involvement program. As a first step, EPA is renewing its investment in a Community Liaison position for the Bunker Hill site that will be based in north Idaho to improve accessibility and local communications. EPA invested in this Community Liaison position in the past but discontinued the position due to resource constraints. EPA is now making resources available to fund the position again and hopes to fill the position in the next few months.
EPA also will renew its efforts to work collaboratively with partner agencies and the public to identify ways to enhance the annual blood lead testing program at the Bunker Hill site. For example, EPA will immediately initiate conversations with partner agencies such as DEQ, the Panhandle Health District, the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare, and the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) to specifically discuss ways to increase participation in blood lead testing in the Coeur d'Alene Basin.

Proceeds from the sale will be redirected into his Rathbone Wine Group, which owns a number of well-known labels including Yering Station, Mount Langi Ghiran, Parker Estate and Xanadu.
Mr Rathbone has sold down more than $175 million worth of Nufarm stock since 2008, initially to cover personal business interests.
The sell-down later included 4.5 million shares sold to Nufarm's majority shareholder, Sumitomo, to cover the tax liability of earlier sales.
In May, Mr Rathbone flatly denied that the property was up for sale to cover debts relating to the family wine business.
Rathbone Wine Group chief Darren Rathbone (Doug's son) said the decision to sell the property now reflected a change of mind rather than a change of strategy.
"It's just not our core business to be property owners and we see this as an opportunity to keep focus on the wine business," he said. "With Nufarm coming strong and the direction it's headed there, we feel this a good next step for us."
Jones Lang LaSalle directors Lincoln Reynolds and David Butera are marketing the property with a 15-year leaseback to the group.
Set on a 2 hectare land parcel, the Lorimer Street property was purpose-built by the group four years ago and comprises 15,600 square metres of building area, including two bottling lines and four levels of office/showroom facilities.
If sold on a yield of 7.75 per cent it would bring in $30 million.
"The year to date we have satisfied over 50,000 sq m of industrial leasing demand, transacted a number of owner/occupier deals and sold industrially zoned land at rates of well over $700 per sq m, a record for Port Melbourne," Mr Reynolds said.
"The dynamics of the 262 Lorimer Street, Port Melbourne, offering will attract strong interest."

Irin Carmon, MSNBC.com's resident abortion reporter penned a misleading piece on March 18 arguing that nuns are split over the contraception mandate in ObamaCare. Carmon, who doesn't hide her support for "reproductive rights" chose to deceive her readers about a supposed divide within the Catholic Church.
Carmon began her piece by declaring that "What do nuns have to do with birth control? Plenty, if you're following the battle over the Affordable Care Act's coverage provisions and the claim that requiring employers to pay for contraceptive coverage violates their religious freedom."
The MSNBC reporter then goes on to describe a lawsuit being filed by the Little Sisters of the Poor opposing the mandate before incorrectly stating that:
Now, a separate group of nuns is taking the opposite tack, defending birth control coverage in the ACA in an online petition. The head of the National Coalition of American Nuns, Donna Quinn, told Religion Dispatches, "It isn't 'faith and freedom' when reproductive autonomy isn't extended by the Catholic Church to women. Now we have other Christian religions seeing what the bishops are doing and saying we will do likewise. It isn't freedom when a woman can be held hostage by the owner of a business."
Carmon never said who the National Coalition of American Nuns were, but had she bothered to do some actual reporting she would have realized that they are merely a liberal social change organization disguised as members of the Catholic Church. According to Reverend Debra Haffner of the Religious Institute who is helping NCAN coordinate pro-contraception efforts, "When I saw the brave stand these nuns were taking on the mandate, I started to think about what we could do to amplify their voices. So we launched a social media campaign asking people to 'Stand with the Nuns."
Haffner went on to declare the following:
We really need to counter the idea that faith is opposed to family planning," said Haffner, who's also helping to coordinate a Faith Rally at the Supreme Court on March 25, the day of the oral arguments for the mandate challenges. "All too often the media only shows a Catholic bishop to offer the faith perspective. More than 14 major religious denominations have statements supporting birth control and birth control access. People need to understand that this is not only an affront to women's moral agency but opens the door to denying a whole range of services, from other kinds of reproductive health care to services to LGBT people.
Nowhere within Carmon's article does she bother explaining how the National Coalition of American Nuns openly defies church teaching to push a liberal agenda. Instead, the article falsely claimed that there is a split among Catholic nuns regarding the contraception mandate, when in reality, actual nuns who practice the Catholic faith oppose the mandate.

uses way too much ink, paper jams constantly and it is less than a year old and needs to be replaced already..can't even make copies at this point and HP acted as they were doing me a favor by sending me a refurbished "higher end" model when.it's still under warranty!
A disaster, waste of time and money.

not like a prior all in one printer than lasted more than 10 years. I had to return it within a year, then got a replacement, now another year has passed and came to the conclusion this model is not going to work. Luckily the escalation team seem to be on-board with my dissatisfaction and offer to cooperate so I can choose another product.

Analysis of data from China suggests faster global climate change
By David Fogarty and David Stanway, Reuters Tuesday, June 12, 2012, 12:05 am TWN
SINGAPORE/BEIJING-- China's carbon emissions could be nearly 20 percent higher than previously thought, a new analysis of official Chinese data showed on Sunday, suggesting the pace of global climate change could be even faster than currently predicted.
China has already overtaken the United States as the world's top greenhouse gas polluter, producing about a quarter of mankind's carbon pollution that scientists say is heating up the planet and triggering more extreme weather.
But pinning down an accurate total for China's carbon emissions has long been a challenge because of doubts about the quality of its official energy use data.
It is that data which is used to compute how the planet's climate will change, helping plan for more extremes of drought, flood and the impact on crops.
"The sad fact is that Chinese energy and emission data as primary input to the models will add extra uncertainty in modeling simulations of predicting future climatic change," say the authors of a study in the journal Nature Climate Change. The team of scientists from China, Britain and the United States, led by Dabo Guan of the University of Leeds, studied two sets of energy data from China's National Bureau of Statistics. One set presented energy use for the nation, the other for its provinces.
They compiled the carbon dioxide (CO2) emission inventories for China and its 30 provinces for the period 1997-2010 and found a big difference between the two datasets.
'More uncertain than ever'
"The paper identifies a 1.4-billion-ton emission gap (in 2010) between the two datasets. This implies greater uncertainties than ever in Chinese energy statistics," Guan, a senior lecturer at the School of Earth and Environment at Leeds University, told Reuters in an emailed response to questions.
That is slightly more than the annual emissions of Japan, one of the world's top-five greenhouse gas polluters.
Guan added the China is not the only country with inconsistent energy data.
Scientists say the world is already racing toward a warming of 2 degrees Celsius or more in coming decades because of the rapid growth in emissions from burning fossil fuels and deforestation. Adding another billion tons into computer models would accelerate the pace of expected warming.

Although he hasn't trimmed his list of offers yet, Jay has 4 schools that he feels are recruiting him the hardest. "I am hearing a lot from Georgia Tech, Auburn, Ole Miss, and Michigan State." Jay will trim his list to 5 in the next couple of weeks.
Jay has also decided to go in a different direction as far as a decision date is concerned. "Now I plan on choosing a school some time in the middle of my season. That way I can still have a fair amount of time to make a sound decision and still enjoy my season."
Georgia Tech secondary coach Charles Kelly and Ellison continue to keep in touch with each other. "He is a cool guy and I enjoy talking with him." Ellison and Coach Kelly talk a lot about life and academics. "That is very refreshing to hear from a coach."
Ellison knows that one injury could take away his football career and Coach Kelly has let him know how much a Georgia Tech degree will mean in life. "I find that very appealing."
The depth chart at Georgia Tech is another thing that appeals to Ellison. "I know that they need players on the defensive line, especially when my class hits college." Ellison knows that if he works hard that he could see early playing time.
Jay has not decided when he'll begin taking any visits. "I am looking at my schedule and will map out which games I will attend this year." After that, Jay will decide which school is the best fit for him.

With the timing of road games and other factors, there have been seasons where the schedule hasn't been kind to Utah State.
This is not one of those examples.
The Aggies played 10 consecutive games to begin 2012. That's allowed USU to focus on Louisiana Tech for 14 straight days. The showdown that will likely decide the Western Athletic Conference title will be played on Saturday afternoon. A bye week at just the right time has USU coach Gary Andersen a happy man.
"Bottom line, this week has afforded us a little more time to formulate a game plan, and we need all the time we can get," Andersen said. "We have to figure out a way to best teach our kids how to scheme for the Bulldogs. This is one of the best football teams in the country that we're playing. They score 50 points a week."
Preparing for Louisiana Tech means adjusting to pace. The Bulldogs will run a faster offense than anyone Utah State has faced this season. It means preparing for Quinton Patton, the Bulldogs' senior wide receiver who has been the best player in the WAC this season.
It means preparing for an offense that treats football like a track meet. And lastly, it means dealing with the heat and humidity that resides in the deep South.
USU knows this won't be easy. But a win would probably mean a national ranking for the Aggies for the first time in more than 40 years and the WAC title in what's likely the final year of football for the conference.
In that sense, Andersen's happy with the timing of the bye week. The USU players practiced Monday through Wednesday of last week, and then received a three-day weekend. The team will begin firm preparation Monday morning.
Utah State is healthy for the first time in a while. Backup running back Joe Hill has recovered from a lingering ankle injury, and the little scrapes and bruises that pile up over the course of a season have subsided.
"I commend the kids for being focused and for taking each opponent one game and one week at a time," Andersen said. "We've had Louisiana Tech on our minds from a distance, but we've never gotten too far ahead of ourselves. We've taken care of business, and that's helped us into the position we have right now."
Andersen knows it will be difficult to stop the Bulldogs, even with the top defense in the league. But the Aggies plan on defending with their offense. They want long drives that end in touchdowns and take time off the clock, keeping Louisiana Tech off the field.
Accomplishing that could net Utah State one of its biggest wins in school history.

Click to Enlarge Despite all that's happening in the market right now, the yen carry trade remains a dominant force. Hedge funds continue to maintain very large short yen positions, accumulated during the past year as the new government in Tokyo actively weakened the yen to restore their economy via increased export competitiveness. And for a while, that boosted Japanese stocks in a big way.
But now, as the U.S. government succumbs to political dysfunction, the yen's traditional role as a safe-haven currency is making a comeback. As a result, the yen is threatening to push up and out of a multimonth consolidation pattern going back to April. If so, those hedge funds will be forced to scramble to close their yen carry trades, magnifying the move.
That's a negative for yen-sensitive Japanese exporters like Sony (SNE), which is collapsing out of a topping pattern going back to May as it falls below its 50-day moving average — a technical support level SNE used throughout September.

Beijing (AFP) May 10, 2007
The wife of an arrested environmental campaigner Thursday said she has filed a lawsuit aimed at censuring the eastern Chinese city where he is awaiting trial for blackmail. Xu Jiehua, wife of Wu Lihong, is seeking a court ruling that will remove Yixing in Jiangsu province from an official list of "model environmental cities," she said.
The State Environmental Protection Administration (SEPA) is named as a litigant in the case due to its role in designating such cities, she said.
Wu, 39, was arrested late last month. He is one of a few environmental activists known to have been arrested in China after waging extensive campaigns against local governments to clean up the environment.
Wu has fought for years against the pollution of Taihu lake in the centre of the Yangtze River Delta plain, a region known for its natural beauty but now littered with light industry and chemical factories.
"Wu Lihong was about to come to Beijing to sue the environmental protection agency when he was arrested, now I am carrying on his work," Xu said.
Xu filed the suit in accordance with provisions on suing the government in China's "administrative procedural law."
Chen Faqing, a colleague of Wu's and a fellow activist, is a co-plaintiff.
The two have provided 83 bottles of contaminated water samples gathered from the Yixing region next to Taihu Lake, and also gathered a series of television and news reports which document polluted rivers in the area.
"We have written letters, provided reports to local, provincial and central governments on the pollution and environmental damage being done to Yixing," Chen said.
"But to no avail, even SEPA has ignored our reports. The lawsuit is the only way left for us to address this."

Get geek chic with MakeupGeek Eyeshadows
Written by msmakeup1829, Posted in Blog
Price: $5.99
Where to Buy: makeupgeek.com
Pros: Price and Pigmentation
Cons: To many colors to choose from (not really, I just could not make up my mind) HA
Packaging: Eye shadow pans that you can stick in any pallet. Also sold in a single shadow compact.
Review: we all know who makeupgeek is right? well if you don't look her up on . youtube She is the sweetest person ever. Anyways this review is not about her (she is sooo lovely) but about the eye shadows that you are she has created. Yes folks, she is her own makeup line out now. The eye shadows that I am review are last dance and country girl. Both of these shadows are so pigmented that it puts other makeup companies to shame. Country girl is a pink based brown with shimmer and last dance is a plum tone medium brown. Both shadows bring high quality for a drugstore price. Both of the shadows are true to color.You will get sucked in to the color range.
Overall: I have found a new obsession in these shadows. Not only are they great quality but also the price is amazing. The only problem (which is not a problem really) is that there are so many colors to choose from that I have a hard time deciding which ones to get. So, eventually I will end up having the whole collection! My bank account better watch out!

The new 12th Ave Grill, part four: the floor plan
[Editor's note: This is the fourth installment of a series, following Kevin Hanney as he moves 12th Ave Grill into the former Victoria Inn space.
- Part 1: the overall plan,
- Part 2: with pictures of the Victoria Inn space as it is now
- Part 3: three ways to finance a restaurant]
Everyone knows that during the holidays, work grinds to a halt. So there hasn't been much progress on the new 12th Ave Grill/Victoria Inn space. But just because the paperwork has been put on hold doesn't mean Kevin Hanney has been idling—because holidays in the restaurant industry are anything but. The two weeks between Christmas and New Year's, when everyone else is taking vacations and dining out, are restaurants' busiest times. During the holidays, most restaurants don't allow employees to take vacation at all. So two busy restaurants, plus Hanney's cars breaking down (he had to replace both his and his wife's car), as well as his computer, and it's been a crazy holiday season for Hanney (oh, and the flu didn't help either).
But it's a new year and the new 12th Ave Grill looms. Here's the current floor plan for the new space.
Hanney hopes to preserve 12th Ave Grill's cozy feel in the bigger space (almost twice as big) by segmenting the dining area so that the main dining room will seat 46 people, about the same as 12th Ave Grill. The bar and counter area will have 22 bar stools as well as a few two-tops and four-tops. A large-party room will hold 20, a private dining room 30, and the two spaces can be combined for larger parties.

SCHOOL'S DEFINITELY OUT . . .During last week's Palo Alto school board meeting, student board member Susan Wu told those in attendance about Gunn High School's recent "Paper-Throwing Day." Apparently, graduating seniors bring all the old tests, homework, and projects they've saved over the last four years to school and engage in a massive loose-leaf cleansing by throwing the paper all over campus. "It definitely took hours to clean up," Wu said. Since Gunn was certified as a Green Business by the Bay Area Green Business Program for its efforts to reduce waste and promote energy conservation earlier this year, the seniors' papers were surely recycled.
A STAIN ON THE LAND . . . A photograph of the extent of contamination from the June 5 Romic hazardous-chemicals accident materialized on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Web site this week.

And as Sanders pointed out, there was a recent report that came out which points to the real problem with our economy and whether you can claim it's recovering or not, and that's the fact that all of the wealth is being redistributed to the top.

Occupy Wall Street is not known for the precision of its economic analysis, but new research on income distribution in the United States shows that the group's sloganeering provides a stunningly accurate picture of the economy. In 2010, according to a study published this month by University of California economist Emmanuel Saez, 93 percent of income growth went to the wealthiest 1 percent of American households, while everyone else divvied up the 7 percent that was left over. Put another way: The most fundamental characteristic of the U.S. economy today is the divide between the 1 percent and the 99 percent.

The Seven Keys were created by a concerted effort by the gods of Good and the god of Nature to repair the damage done by the Dark One, the most powerful of the gods of evil. He created seven links between his seven realms and Aerth, through which he planned to slowly leak evil into the world and eventally form portals through which his minions, and eventually he himself, could pass through. The work on the Keys was finished, and the Keys hidden, before the world of Aerth was declared complete. Now it is up to the people of Aerth to decide their eventual fate, either a world in Balance as was the gods' original agreement, or another realm of Evil.
The keys are shaped like small stars, about the size of a child's hand. They appear to be made of delicate crystal, but they are unbreakable. When sent through a portal created by one of the Dark One's links, it will close the portal and destroy the link forever.

In the front window a large LED-Wall displayed an interactive artwork where visitors' energies were tracked and visualized through the use of a thermal camera. Inside the Diesel shop-in-shop, we also created a "soul mirror" which would replace shoppers faces with their spirit animal on a large LCD panel.

Washington DC (SPX) Aug 19, 2014
Astronomers have uncovered rhythmic pulsations from a rare type of black hole 12 million light-years away by sifting through archival data from NASA's Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) satellite.
The signals have helped astronomers identify an unusual midsize black hole called M82 X-1, which is the brightest X-ray source in a galaxy known as Messier 82. Most black holes formed by dying stars are modestly-sized, measuring up to around 25 times the mass of our sun. And most large galaxies harbor monster, or supermassive, black holes that contain tens of thousands of times more mass.
"Between the two extremes of stellar and supermassive black holes, it's a real desert, with only about half a dozen objects whose inferred masses place them in the middle ground," said Tod Strohmayer, an astrophysicist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.
Astronomers from Goddard and the University of Maryland, College Park (UMCP) have suspected M82 X-1 of being midsize for at least a decade, but compelling evidence excluding it from being a stellar black hole proved elusive.
"For reasons that are very hard to understand, these objects have resisted standard measurement techniques," said Richard Mushotzky, a professor of astronomy at UMCP.
By going over past RXTE observations, the astronomers found specific changes in brightness that helped them determine M82 X-1 measures around 400 solar masses.
As gas falls toward a black hole, it heats up and emits X-rays. Variations in X-ray brightness reflect changes occurring in the gas. The most rapid fluctuations happen near the brink of the black hole's event horizon, the point beyond which nothing, not even light, can escape.
Astronomers call these rhythmic pulses quasi-periodic oscillations, or QPOs. For stellar black holes, astronomers have established that the larger the mass, the slower the QPOs, but they could not be sure what they were seeing from M82 X-1 was an extension of this pattern.
"When we study fluctuations in X-rays from many stellar-mass black holes, we see both slow and fast QPOs, but the fast ones often come in pairs with a specific 3:2 rhythmic relationship," explained Dheeraj Pasham, UMCP graduate student. For every three pulses from one member of a QPO pair, its partner pulses twice.
By analyzing six years of RXTE data, the team located X-ray variations that reliably repeat about 5.1 and 3.3 times a second, a 3:2 relationship. The combined presence of slow QPOs and a faster pair in a 3:2 rhythm sets a standard scale allowing astronomers to extend proven relationships used to determine the masses of stellar-mass black holes.
The results of the study were published online in the journal Nature.
Launched in late 1995 and decommissioned in 2012, RXTE is one of NASA's longest-serving astrophysics missions. Its legacy of unique measurements continues to provide researchers with valuable insights into the extreme environments of neutron stars and black holes.
A new NASA X-ray mission called the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) is slated for launch to the International Space Station in late 2016. Pasham has identified six potential middle-mass black holes that NICER may be able to explore for similar signals.

SLU's Coolest College Honors
5 awesome ways SLU has been recognized
By SLU Staff Writers
Here is a college search secret: The best university is the one that is the best fit for you. That's one reason college ranking lists consider everything from campus beauty to food in the dining halls.
So how does Saint Louis University stack up? SLU is ranked among the top universities in the country for undergraduate education, but it has also racked up some awards you might have missed. Check out our list of SLU's coolest college honors.
1. Most Charitable UniversitiesWhen it comes to universities committed to the greater good, SLU is hard to beat. The University has been repeatedly named to the President's Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll. We've been recently ranked by both the Carnige Foundation and Washington Monthly for our commitment to community service. SLU's Relay for Life raises among the most funds per capita of all teams nationwide. Plus, the University's Make a Difference Day shatters records each year, with more than 3,300 students, faculty and staff participating in a single day of service.
2. Greenest UniversitiesFrom locally-sourced food and compostable plates in the dining halls to amped up recycling and reuse efforts in its residence halls, SLU is all about sustainability. In March 2015, SLU earned a Silver Rating from the Sustainability Tracking, Assessment and Rating System, and the University was a charter participant in the AASHE's Sustainability Tracking Assessment and Reporting System.
3. Most Social SchoolsPlanning your future dorm room? Follow SLU on Pinterest. Looking for a beautiful urban campus? Check out what Billikens post on Instagram. In 2013, SLU was listed as a Top 100 Best and Most Collaborative U.S. College in the Huffington Post. The University's colleges and departments - and even its mascot - are on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and pretty much everywhere else, when it comes to social media, giving you an inside look at life before you ever step on campus.
4. Most Beautiful College CampusesSLU is an urban oasis in the middle of St. Louis, Missouri., with plenty of picturesque places to study, views of the iconic Gateway Arch and the gorgeous Francis Xavier College Church. SLU is even on Buzzfeed's list of "31 Insanely Beautiful Colleges You Can Get Married At."
5. Most Unique College MascotsOh, Huffington Post, Mental Floss - and even US News & World Report - when will you learn what a Billiken is? (Hint: it's a good luck charm.) Every basketball season, SLU's Billiken tops the list of unusual, quirky and downright odd mascots, which is OK with us. Who wants to be on the boring and normal list, after all? Billikens stand out!
6. High School Counselors' Favorite UniversitiesSpeaking of US News & World Report, SLU is repeatedly on its list of universities high school counselors think offer the best undergraduate education. And Colleges of Distinction - a website started by high school counselors - also likes SLU for its commitment to engaged students, great teaching, a vibrant community and successful student outcomes.

As you know, at A Frog in My Soup, we take healthy living very seriously, and we jump at any opportunity to share information with you that can help your family be healthier! When Alternavites contacted us about reviewing their new quick-melting multivitamin for kids, I was thrilled! I find that most kids vitamins today are filled with artificial flavors, colors, and often sugar! Yuck! I am trying to give my kids the essential vitamins and minerals to help them grow, not give them more junk.
When I heard that not only did Alternavites eliminate the artificial flavors and coloring, they kept the flavor, I was so excited to try them. Plus, the managed to eliminate the worst part of vitamins – the swallowing a pill part! Not only that, but the vitamins come in fun single serve pouches of powder that quickly disolves on your tongue. I had to laugh when I saw the picture above because since we started using Alternavites my kids make that exact same face when I tell them it's time for their vitamins! My daughter has been caught trying to take extra vitamins and I'm pretty sure she thinks that it is candy…
Alternavites Kids come in two really yummy flavors; Strawberry Bubble Gum and Rasberry Cotton Candy. I am partial to the Cotton Candy flavor, but my kids seriously love both. Alternavites also makes an adult version in Delcious Mixed Berry that truly is delicious! (A little warning though – I poured almost the whole pouch in my mouth at once. I then coughed. Big mistake – powder everywhere and two hysterical kids! It was actually kind of funny, but if you happen to have a cold or cough, go slow! 🙂 )
Here are some of the fabulous features of Alternavites:
· Just one packet per day
· Contains 0 grams of sugar & is free of aspartame and high fructose corn syrup
· No artificial sweeteners, colors, flavors, or preservatives
· Contains no animal products or by-products
· Contains no egg, milk, peanut, tree nuts, wheat, soy, fish or shellfish.
· Certified kosher pareve
· Endorsed by a prominent Registered Dietitian as well as a renowned Pediatric Dentist.
Hallie Rich, the founder of Alternavites has been so kind to us and has offered to give not one, but TWO, lucky readers a month's supply of vitamins! And, if you love it as much as I do, you can stock up by using the code "moms20" to get 20% off at the Alternavites store. Enter below using our rafflecopter widget. 🙂

Disclosure: At A Frog In My Soup we believe in presenting products to you that we have tried and truly love. We were given Coolibar products to test and review. As always, all opinions, views and thoughts are honest and entirely our own. You can read our full review policy here.

International Business Alliances (IBUS6004)
Collaboration to achieve competitive advantage is one of the most commonly recommended cross border strategies. However, international alliances can take many different forms, and they can serve many different purposes. Managing international alliances raises a series of different issues for the alliance partners to manage. This unit examines the issues raised and considers the reasons for success and failure of international alliances. It looks at the forms that partnerships can take, it examines the methods for choosing among potential partners, it examines the potential forms of collaboration and the level of resources each may require. Managing the partnership for maximum advantage, avoiding possible risks, and deciding how and when to end the partnership, all are further issues that managers must consider. The unit considers these questions in the framework of general theoretical approaches, and pays particular attention to discussion of individual cases.

Phil Cassidy
Phil drifts through the GTA series like the smell of his own bootlegged liquor. In Vice City circa 1984 he's working for Martinez while brewing his lethal 'boomshine' drink on the side. He can always be found at his hillbilly gun club down in Viceport - look for the 'P' symbol on the map.
Cholo Victory
It appears that evicting the Cholos from the apartment was just the first step. The Mexicans are trying to seize control of the gun trade and Phil's grip is slipping. It's time to take the power back. Drive Phil to the police station, then to the hospital. You'll see a single Cholo scarper, so chase after him and pull up alongside his vehicle. Even in his boozed-up state, Phil is a decent shot and it won't take long for the Cholo car to start smoking. You can speed things up by ramming into the car and sandwiching it against a wall. When the car ignites, the Cholo will get out and try to open fire, only to be killed immediately in the explosion. Clever boy. Take his sub-machinegun then stop by the local Pay 'n' Spray garage to get Phil's truck fixed up. Finally, drop your boss off at the gun club and claim your cash reward. After completing this mission, Phil gets in touch to tell you that his sister's husband, Marty Williams, is looking for a good guy to work with. This opens Marty's strand, but we recommend you complete Phil's missions first.
Boomshine Blowout
The Cholos aren't about to back down without a fight - they're planning to blow Phil's boomshine warehouse all the way Tennessee. Drive Phil to the depot and park around the back. A cut-scene plays in which Phil attempts to open the door and sets off an explosion. You've now got to get the crates of the highly volatile boomshine out of the building before the heat gets too intense. Jump in the forklift truck and transport four crates (marked with the green arrows) to the back of Phil's truck. It looks straightforward enough, but with each successive crate you retrieve, more of the warehouse roof collapses and blocks the most direct routes. As a result, you'll have to venture deeper into the building to reach the crates. Manoeuvring the forklift takes some getting used to, especially in tight spaces, so you may require three or four attempts to crack it. The mission is complete when you load the fourth crate.
Truck Stop
Sergeant Martinez drops by the gun club and convinces Phil to appropriate a truck travelling through Little Haiti. Get behind the wheel and pick up a couple of gun-toting crazies from the Beachcomber Hotel, then use the radar to track down the target vehicle. There are four Cholo boys riding on the back of the truck and they'll open fire as you approach. Get up close and let your passengers pepper the guards with gunfire. When they're all dead, Phil will jump into the truck and drive it down to the docks. The fun is not over however as a couple of Cholos cars will attempt to ram the truck off the road. Hit these cars hard from behind to spin them out, or if you have a sub-machinegun, pull alongside and open fire. The mission is complete when Phil successfully reaches Viceport. Before you can tackle Phil's final mission you must finish the Marty Williams' strand, so skip to that section now.
Marked Men
Having completed Marty Williams' last mission (Got Protection?), Phil's symbol will reappear on the map. Drive down to the docks and you'll be reacquainted with Martinez. The shady sergeant wants the pair of you to investigate a stash of weapons. However, when you arrive at the warehouse, you realise that Martinez actually wants the pair of you dead. A gang opens fire as soon as you arrive, threatening the ignite the boomshine on the back of Phil's truck... Tennessee, here we come. A good method is to take off on foot to draw fire away from the truck, but it's easier to hit the gas and splatter the guards beneath your tires. The truck will take some heavy hits, but you can stop off at the Pay 'n' Spray to repair and damage before returning to Viceport. This is the last of Phil's missions. Louise will now page you with some news about Marty, unlocking the D.I.V.O.R.C.E. mission.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Peanut is about 5 years old, healthy and cute as can be. She weighs about 11 pounds, gets along great with other dogs and likely with kids. She is housebroken, and cuddly. Loves to play and go for walks. Her favorite thing is getting her tummy rubbed while looking up at her human with a huge smile! She is not a barker. Peanut does well with both large and small dogs.
She is spayed, current on her shots and has been well taken care of by her little boy and his family. Meet this little girl and you will fall in love. Can you provide that loving home so we can tell her little friend the good news?
Peanut "I SMILE A LOT", a Scottsdale Chihuahua/Dachshund dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Chihuahua/Dachshund for sale in Scottsdale, or seeking a Chihuahua/Dachshund dog from a breeder in Scottsdale.

Ask Health Experts and Get Answers to Your Health Question ASAP
Hello and thank you for the question. Answers given are for informational purposes only and are not meant to replace an exam by an in-person.
I am Dr. Sohaib, a practicing Internal Medicine Specialist and i will do my best to help you today.
Your concerns are well taken.
Yes there are numerous side effects of steroids (prednisolone) and these have to be used cautiously. But let me tell you that these are wonder drugs, and life saving in most of their indications.
Moreover, the side effects (serious) are expected to occur if the steroids are taken for a long durations (months and years), and even the chances of these side effects are minimized to great extent if the treatment is monitored (and hence the dose of steroids) intelligently by the physician. Also there are number of remedies that help minimize any kind of side effects when these are used long term.
In your case the most likely reason it has been prescribed is due to bronchial hypersensitivity, which occurs due to infection and give your air ways an ongoing inflammation resulting in narrowing of the airways and resultant cough along with shortness of breath (at times).
For such a short duration, the chances of any side effect are minimal, and you can confidently use the steroids for immediate relief from the symptoms.
However, do watchfully monitor yourself for any unusual symptoms and in case if you experience any, report this to your doctor.
I prescribe steroids to many pf my patients daily for short term (few days or a week), and have rarely seen any serious side effect. In general these are very well tolerated and beneficial if prescribed appropriately.
Stay relaxed.
Good luck and get well soon.
It was a pleasure assisting you and thank you very much for visiting us.
My goal is to provide you with Excellent Service - if satisfied with the response, Please do not forget to Rate my service.
If you feel you have gotten anything less, please reply back, I am happy to address follow-up questions.
Kindest Regards.
You have indicated in your answer about prednisolone. I am talking about prednisone. I hope you make a typo in your answer.
Since I am talking about side effects can you guide me when I should stop taking instead of continuing.
Both are same (steroids).
5 days is a sufficient course, you can stop after this.

Hello! A few years ago my sister-in-law and I came to Port Costa for your open house during the holidays... now her only wish of me is to procure a glitter bird "like the ones on the Lincoln Center Tree" for her (and I'd love a few as well)... she is in Florida. When is your next open house - or - where can I buy a few of these wonderful creatures? Thank you!

The High/Low Project: Distinguishing Grades of Lucite Furniture
Kudos to Sabrina Soto and her excellent HGTV show, The High/Low Project. Sabrina demonstrates how to realistically create high end decor on a budget. For this past week's show, Sabrina recreates a $32,000 dining room for less than $5,000. One of the key features of the dining room is an acrylic waterfall console table. The high end design included a custom-sized waterfall in 2″ thick acrylic. The low end room replaced the custom table Read More »
Creating "WOW" with David Bromstad of Color Splash
David Bromstad and the HGTV Color Splash crew came to NYC recently to transform a master bedroom in a new Manhattan apartment. David had the idea to create an acrylic headboard as the centerpiece for the bedroom. David chose acrylic for its transparency so the headboard would not block the amazing views from the apartment. But, obviously, David also wanted color in the headboard. So he came here to Plexi-Craft so we could work out Read More »

The Toronto Blue Jays avoided arbitration with right-hander Carlos Villanueva, second baseman Kelly Johnson and outfielder Ben Francisco on Tuesday, signing all three to non-guaranteed one-year deals.
Johnson is scheduled to make $6.375-million in 2012 while Villanueva agreed to a deal just under $2.3-million and Francisco is slated to get $1.537-million.
Toronto has two arbitration-eligible players remaining — pitchers Casey Janssen and Brandon Morrow.
Second-year general manager Alex Anthopoulos said unless either or both players agree to a multi-year contract, the Jays and the player's representatives will indeed meet before an arbitrator, likely sometime next month.
"The one thing we both agree on is the players should get a raise and the players should make more than they made last year," he said during a conference call. "I think we're all on the same page that we like the players and want to give them a raise.
"What we can't see eye-to-eye on is how much of a raise to give them so the third party has to get involved to tell us what the right amount is. We don't have a problem with that."
Then again, the Jays were scheduled to go to arbitration last year with slugger Jose Bautista and pitcher Jason Frasor, but settled on multi-year deals with both players prior to meeting with an arbitrator. Bautista agreed to a five-year, $64-million deal with a club option for a sixth year at $14 million while Frasor reached a one-year, $3.5-million agreement with a club option for 2012 worth $3.75-million.
"We're a big believer that two things get deals done: momentum and deadlines," Anthopoulos said. "We find by having a deadline in place it forces us and the players' side to come to the table and be more aggressive and we both know we're working hard to try to avoid going to a room and try to get a deal done and we find it has worked well."
The 28-year-old Villanueva appeared in 33 games — including 13 starts — with Toronto last year. He posted a 6-4 record and 4.04 earned-run average.
The Dominican Republic native is a career 26-28 with a 4.28 ERA in 263 games — including 40 starts — with Milwaukee and Toronto.
Johnson was acquired Aug. 23 from the Arizona Diamondbacks. He posted a .270 average with three home runs and nine RBIs with Toronto.
The 29-year-old Texan has a .260 average with a .343 on-base percentage and .441 slugging percentage in 791 games with Atlanta, Arizona and Toronto.
Francisco was acquired from the Philadelphia Phillies on Dec. 12 and will make his Toronto debut this season. The Santa Ana, Calif., native hit .240 with six home runs and 34 RBIs in 2011 for the Phillies.
The 30-year-old has a .260 lifetime average with 45 home runs and 174 RBIs over five seasons.

The Strava app for iPhone supports various biometric sensors and external displays; see the information below for details about our supported devices and how to use them.
To get started using your biometric sensors, you'll first need to enable the connection to the channel on which your device communicates. In most cases, this will mean enabling Bluetooth on your iPhone 4s or newer by going to your phone's Settings page and toggling Bluetooth to ON. If you're using an ANT+ device, you'll need to plug in your ANT+ receiver - currently, our only supported model is the Wahoo ANT+ Key, only for iPhone models 4s and below.
Next, you need to tell the Strava app which devices you're using. To do this, go to the record screen and tap the 'Settings' icon (1) followed by the 'External Sensors' option.
From the Devices page (shown above right), you'll be able to enable or disable the use of your phone's Bluetooth connection or ANT+ key (if available), as well as enable or disable individual sensors. You can also see what devices are already connected, and learn more about compatible sensors and other advice and tips. Enabling a specific sensor will prompt the Strava app to search for a connection to sensors of that type.
If you want your iPhone to 'forget' a device you've already paired, you can tap the Edit button at the top-right of the Devices page (2), which will bring you to the device management page, shown below. Tap the red 'minus' button (3) next to the sensor you'd like to remove, then tap the Delete button that will appear to the right of that sensor. When you're finished, tap the Done button at the top-right of the screen. In some cases, this can help when you are having issues connecting a device.
For a list of FAQ on biometric sensors, please see here.

Frogs are thought to be the first indicator when something goes awry in the environment. If there are no frogs around, you can bet something is up. With how much we've managed to pollute the environment, it's no wonder frog populations are declining world wide.
Yosemite Falls Trail will be closed on Wed, 4/18 for trail work including blasting. Blasting is commonly used where pry bars and hand tools are not enough to cut through the hard granite of Yosemite.
You probably don't think of Yosemite and "world class angling" in the same sentence. But check out this 17.4lb fish caught just a few miles up the road from Yosemite?
In case you've been living in the deep woods or a cave in Yosemite (local joke), next year marks the 150th Anniversary of the signing of the Yosemite Grant by Abraham Lincoln.

In this week's episode, the in-laws pay a visit to Beekman 1802.
Lest you think they get special treatment, just like everyone else who pays a visit to the farm, we have a long list of chores for Josh's parents when they arrive from Wisconsin. (They have amazing stamina!)
We asked Dave and Jackie to share why they love coming to Beekman 1802.
Dave says:
The Beekman IS beautiful. Beautiful buildings, fields, the pond, the goats, everything. Beekman is a lot of work. Farmer John is a human machine: goes all the time. Brent doesn't stop from the very early moment he wakes up; he's outside working in the flower gardens, or trimming the lawn, before I even have my coffee. Josh is in the vegetable garden as the sun comes up; he seems to gain strength from the quiet of the morning.
And then there's winter. I haven't been there in winter … yet.
And Jackie writes:
Being at Beekman for a weekend is a long string of adjectives. If it is a spring/summer weekend, it is a weekend defined by nature. The usual walking around outside and planting, weeding, thinning, and raising your face to the sun …. hopefully while sitting on that wonderful porch. (That doesn't happen often.) I love the smell of the leftover ashes' "scent" of winter wood fires that are still evident in the chimneys on a humid day. In the fall/winter, a weekend is hot coffee, something baking and a chance for me to clean out the glasses cabinet and polish old wood just to smell the lemon oil. There is beauty out of every window always and peace from within.
Yep, Josh's parents are FABULOUS too!
