Warrant out for teen who dodged custody due to Oberstown overcrowding
A JUDGE has ordered the arrest of a teenage boy who dodged being detained earlier this week because the Oberstown youth detention facility was full.
The 48-bed facility in Lusk in north Co. Dublin is the State's main detention facility for offenders aged under 17. Youths ran amok at the centre on Monday night and extensive damage was caused when a rooftop blaze broke out.
The 16-year-old boy has been barred from his mother's home following a domestic incident.
He is charged with criminal damage on to a chair on Aug. 25 at his north inner city Dublin home where his mother resides.
On Tuesday, he avoided being remanded in custody and was granted bail and ordered to appear again on Thursday however he did not show up. The boy's mother was present but after he was barred from residing with her and he has been staying at his grandmother's home in Dublin.
Judge O'Connor was told yesterday (thur) that gardai established that the teen left his granny's home at 9.20am. However, when the boy did not come to court the judge acceded to a request for a bench warrant to be issued to have him arrested.
On Friday, he was first granted bail with strict conditions: he had to stay away from his mother's address; reside in another part of Dublin with a grandparent and obey a 9pm – 9am curfew.
He faced objections to bail when he faced his second hearing on Tuesday. Garda Peter Redmond then told the Dublin Children's Court that at 1am on Saturday the teenager was found at Mountjoy Square in Dublin "under the influence". At the time, the teen was in possession of a petrol can and a bike but could not explain why he had them.
He also broke the curfew over the next two days. The court heard there was a difficult family situation and when the boy came to court on Tuesday he arrived "with a bag packed" and was consenting to being held in custody.
But enquiries were made and the court was told there were "no beds today" at the Oberstown detention centre. He was then allowed back out on bail.
Meanwhile an investigation is being carried out at the detention facility following chaotic incidents when one staff member was injured and a rooftop fire broke out at the facility on Monday night. Eight of the detainees managed to get onto the roof of the residential unit which was badly damaged by fire.
An eight-hour stoppage was held by staff on Monday protesting against working conditions at the campus which expanded in recent years to accommodate older youths.

I know I haven't blogged in forever.. and I'm soooooooo behind on everything. BUT I just HAD to blog about my absolutely wonderful day! I've been wanting to take a jab at birth photography :)… My awesome friend Savanha was due in a few weeks and I asked her last week if she minded if I used her as my guinea pig and tried out birth photography.. she obliged… and I am SO, SOOOOO, glad… that she did!
Today began with me arriving at the hospital at around 8ish this morning. Savanha was getting induced between 7-8 and since this was her first baby,.. or in texas, we say, her first "rodeo".. lol.. there was no telling when Riley would arrive.. it could be quick.. it could be 24 hours.. who knew! So, I figured,.. the earlier my arrival.. the better! I walked into her room.. Savanha's husband, Aaron, was sitting in a chair.. & watching Savanha. Savanha was passed out.. cold. 🙂 Aaron informed me that Savanha had been induced, they checked her and she was at a 5, so they went ahead and gave her an epidural.. and then gave her some nice stadol… 🙂 which I assumed was to help her relax while her body moved things along. First of all,.. have you ever had a child? I have had 3. They gave me stadol with my last baby.. & I KID YOU NOT.. I was higher than a kite. I actually woke up at some point during my high and saw my husband on a surfboard, surfing around my bed. TRUE STORY.. 🙂 Stadol doesn't play around.. but it doesn't last very long either.
Savanha woke up from her nap and we had a few giggles 😉 and she started feeling pressure during her contractions. The nurse came in to check her… I stepped out. Nurse left.. told me that Savanha was at a 6! WOW! Things were moving along quickly.. over the next hour.. Savanha's "feeling pressure" turned into.. feeling HORRIBLE contractions! The anesthesiologist came in.. gave her more epidural meds.. and left.. 10 minutes later.. she was still feeling pain.. Anesthesiologist came in about 30 minutes later.. gave her some sort of concoction of pain reliever that was so strong that I assumed if you were being mauled by a bear, you probably would feel like you were being tickled by a feather. if you felt anything… at all. LOL she was happy.. WE were happy that she wasn't in pain anymore.. and we let her take another nap.. about 20 minutes later, the nurse comes in to check Savanha.. I step out.. and she comes back out and says.. "She's at an 8.5!" … HOLY canoly! Savanha does NOT play around when it comes to birthing babies apparently. LOL… I knew from my birthing days (that are long over.. lol) that once you get to a 9.. they'll get you to push and BOOM you're at a 10. The nurse comes back and she's pushing in all of these tables. She's getting baby Riley's bed warm and ready for him.. she's completely redoing the entire room and getting it to look like a delivery room. Around this time.. Savanha's family and Aaron's family are waiting outside the door.. eager to know the latest.. eager to hear Riley's first cries. The nurse comes back in, I step out.. and she was in there a good few minutes.. steps back out and tells us that Savanha was at a 10! WOO! I sneak back into the room, and Savanha is ready to start pushing. Aaron and I watch on as the nurse instructs Savanha to take a deep breath and hold it, while the nurse counts to 10… 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.. The nurse repeats it with each push.. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. Saying it each time. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. Heck by this point, I'm even saying it in my head with her.. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10! FINALLY the nurse gets excited and informs Savanha & Aaron that she can see baby Riley's head.. and he's got a headfull of hair! Aaron kisses Savanha.. and with the next contraction.. .she pushes again.. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8,9, 10! Does this for about 20 more minutes.. and the nurse pages Dr. Vaughn and lets him know that Savanha is ready. At this point, I was watching Savanha, this was the last hour of her life as just being Savanha,.. daughter, sister, aunt, & wife… She was fixing to add another title to her name… Mommy! Her lip was quivering, her body was shaking, the room was freezing,.. and I was in total ADMIRATION of the amount of work she was doing to bring this tiny little person into the world. She was ready. Aaron was ready.. and allllllll of their family was ready to see him.. I was ready to see him, too 😉
Dr. Vaughn comes in and everything was like a total blur after that. Everything happened sooooooo fast. Savanha pushed more, the nurses counted to 10 and I was taking every single photo I could think to take. Savanha's face, Savanha's awesomely painted toenails from a recent pedicure, the clock on the wall.. you name it! 🙂 They instruct me to move in closer and next thing you know.. at 12:13 pm, you hear baby Riley 🙂 He had this amazing first cry. I'll admit.. the kid has an awesome set of lungs on him. 🙂 Dr. Vaughn lays him on Savanha. Aaron kisses Savanha on the forehead which was a total.. awww gushy love squeezy moment for me, and then they had everything ready for the new proud Daddy to cut the cord. After that, Aaron stayed back with his baby Momma, Savanha! *Haha! love it!* & I followed the nurses and baby Riley over to his nice, warm, heated bed.. watching the nurse get him measured and weighed. 🙂
After everyone is cleaned up and happy and ready to snuggle with each other, all of the staff leaves the room and it was just me and the brand spankin' new parents with their absolutely BEAUTIFUL baby boy, Riley. New Mommy Savanha just glowed looking at her new little dude, and from the huge cheezin grin on new Daddy Aaron's face, I could tell that both of them were never more happy than they were at that moment, in that tiny little room.. on the 2nd floor.. in Paris Regional Medical Center.. and I was right there sharing and photographing that moment with them. OMGOSH! Thank you Savanha.. sooooo much for allowing me to be with you guys on one of the most important days of your lives. It really was one of the greatest experiences of mine.. and I can't ever, ever, EVER, thank you enough for it! You two are going to be such awesome parents to Riley… & I honestly can't wait to watch this little dude grow up!

My name is Paul Reynolds and I have just finished my MSc in Habitat management and conservation at Staffordshire University, UK. My interest in wildlife conservation began in early childhood, with trips to zoos and sanctuaries, wildlife documentaries and walks in the beautiful English countryside.
This interest grew as I got older and could understand the world around me to a greater degree. I was originally aiming to train as a doctor, even though my real passion was for wildlife conservation, however, during my A-levels I began to research options for a university degree in wildlife conservation and found myself signing up for a BSc (Hons) in wildlife conservation and zoo biology. It was during my first degree that my academic knowledge of wildlife conservation grew rapidly and along with it, a greater passion to dedicate my life to helping conserve the magnificent flora and fauna of this world. I also developed an interest in wildlife photography which I continue to pursue in my spare time.
The greatest threats to wildlife and habitat conservation the world over are as a direct result of human activities, from the overexploitation of resources to anthropogenic climate change. I believe that education the world over in the principles of wildlife conservation and the physical protection of important biodiversity hotspots are essential for a future where humans remain a part of this planet.
Working with nature rather than against it is the only way that mankind can combat some of our own threats to survival, such as food security, energy production and medicinal research. One of the greatest misconceptions facing the human world is one by which humans are separate from animals and thus the natural world around us. This is simply not true, we are part of the kingdom animalia (along with all other animals on earth) and within the order of primates (along with all apes, monkeys and prosimians). Ultimately what happens in the natural world directly affects us as a species and thus we all have an obligation to work to protect this planet, not just for other wildlife, but for our species very survival. This is why I want to work to save the flora and fauna on our wonderful planet.

Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Tyson Foods stock: 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Tyson Foods posted strong third-quarter fiscal 2017 results, wherein both earnings and sales surpassed estimates. The results mainly benefitted from the strong performance of its segments, primarily Beef and Chicken. Improved availability of cattle supply and higher exports aided growth across its segments during the quarter. Shares also outperform the broader industry over the past three months. Tyson Foods has also been focusing on acquisitions to expand its portfolio. During the third quarter the company witnessed acquisition related synergies from AdvancePierre that aided enhancing volumes in the Prepared Food segment. Additionally, the company has also been putting efforts towards improving protein-packed brands through innovation. However, Tyson Foods' margins remains exposed to rising operational costs as a result of increasing investments." (8/10/2017) 2. Pivotal Research analysts commented, "We see TSN's valuation as keyed off the "growth company" view which we question. Margins across the face of the business are in decline. We don't love the AdvancePierre deal and expect it to be a disappointment while still accretive to EPS." (8/8/2017) 3. Argus analysts commented, "We are downgrading Tyson Foods Inc. (NYSE: TSN) from BUY to HOLD. Although the company posted strong fiscal 1Q17 results, we are concerned about an SEC investigation of Tyson and other poultry producers for alleged manipulation of a chicken pricing index. We also see the potential for decelerating earnings in the coming quarters and are concerned about the recent bird flu outbreak at poultry farms in Tennessee and Alabama. In addition, we believe that the company's new CEO, Tom Hayes, is likely to be cautious about acquisitions and business expansion, and believe that this is weighing on TSN shares. If the company is able to resolve its legal issues and continues to report strong earnings, we would consider returning the stock to our BUY list. For investors interested in the Consumer Staples sector, we recommend the shares of BUY-rated Clorox (CLX). Our long-term rating on TSN remains BUY, based on our expectations for benefits from the Hillshire Brands acquisition and continued stock buybacks and dividend increases."

Spent parents weekend here..they did a good job especially since they were booked. Weird smell in lobby and our room is hard to overlook. Very comfortable two bedroom suite but would have loved two baths so we weren't all sharing..even a half bath would have made more sense.

Abu Nidal Is Reportedly Placed Under House Arrest by Libyans
By YOUSSEF M. IBRAHIM, Special to The New York Times
Published: November 28, 1989
TUNIS— Abu Nidal, the Palestinian widely considered one of the world's most dangerous terrorists, has been placed under house arrest by Libya, officials of the Palestine Liberation Organization here and Arab diplomats in Paris say.
The move against Abu Nidal, who lives in a compound near Tripoli, the Libyan capital, is believed to be a result of Arab and Palestinian pressure on Libya to put an end to his terrorist activities, which were becoming an obstacle to Arab diplomacy.
P.L.O. officials here and senior Egyptian diplomats said that as part of the pressure, President Hosni Mubarak of Egypt in October asked the Libyan leader, Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi, to either extradite Abu Nidal to Egypt or prevent him from mounting any terrorist operations from Libya as an essential condition for restored relations between the two nations.
There is no indication that Colonel Qaddafi intends to turn Abu Nidal over to Egypt, the officials said. Deadly Feud With P.L.O. Officials of the P.L.O., which has been Abu Nidal's principal enemy in the Arab world since he broke with it in 1973, said the developments could signal the end of the Abu Nidal organization, or at least the beginning of a long paralysis. The faction is believed responsible for terrorist attacks that have killed or wounded 900 people in at least 20 countries since 1974, when it was formed.
Egypt's request for the move against Abu Nidal, the nom de guerre of Sabry al-Banna, came during a two-day meeting of the Egyptian and Libyan leaders on Oct. 16 and 17 in towns on the border between the two countries.
Tensions between Libya and Egypt, arising mainly from Egypt's 1979 peace with Israel, have eased in recent years as Colonel Qaddafi, apparently unnerved by an American bombing raid on his capital in 1986 and sensing deeper international isolation, has sought to project more conciliatory policies. Egypt sees a closer relationship with Colonel Qaddafi as a form of restraint on the Libyan leader, and looks to Libya as a source of badly needed income for Egyptians who go to that country to work.
Abu Nidal, who has lived in Libya since he was expelled from Syria in 1987, is wanted in Egypt for, among other things, the 1985 hijacking of an Egyptian airliner that ended with the deaths of 56 passengers in Malta during an attempted rescue.
His organization is held responsible for several of the most heinous acts of terrorism, including the killing of 21 people in the bombing of a synagogue in Istanbul in 1986. It has also claimed responsibility for the slaying of a leading Palestinian moderate, Issam Sartawi, in 1983.
Several Arab affairs experts said the Libyan action against Abu Nidal strongly suggests that his organization, the Fatah Revolutionary Council, is nearing collapse. Under pressure from several Arab governments, a growing number of its leaders and trained cadres have defected to the P.L.O.
Dissident senior leaders of the faction, Arab diplomats and P.L.O. officials had reported in early November that more than 150 members of the group, including more than 20 of its leaders, were slain this year and last year in an internecine struggle as Abu Nidal sought to assert absolute control over the group's 1,000 to 1,200 members and its considerable financial resources.
Officials said Colonel Qaddafi had ordered a search for the bodies of senior leaders of the group who were said to have been killed and buried inside the Abu Nidal compound near Tripoli.
Two senior commanders of the Abu Nidal group formed a ''temporary leadership'' and appealed to the rank and file of the faction to join them.
''The man's time is over,'' said a senior Arab diplomat and former intelligence official who is familiar with Abu Nidal's relations with Syria, Iraq, Libya and the P.L.O. ''He is becoming useless to all those who have used him.'' U.S. Calls Group 'The Most Dangerous'
The developments have again focused attention on the organization described in a State Department report last year as ''the most dangerous terrorist organization in existence.''
Documents from senior Abu Nidal lieutenants who defected from the group, as well as files from the P.L.O. and a Western intelligence agency, offer a rare glimpse of the methods of the highly secretive organization.
According to P.L.O. intelligence files, Abu Nidal has often sent cassette tape recordings to Arab kings and presidents in which he expounded on political views and demanded money. According to a Western intelligence report, he kept a private apartment in Warsaw until two years ago, and directed a major commercial company with main offices in Warsaw and East Berlin and branches in Spain, Italy, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Turkey, Cyprus and Yugoslavia. He is estimated to control $200 million.
According to a P.L.O. document, the money has been generated through a variety of methods over the last 15 years. They include the use of blackmail tactics against Arab governments; commercial transactions organized through a string of companies, and direct contributions from some supportive Arab governments, including Libya, Syria and Iraq.

|Exporting website from CWIKI
|Wed, 14 Nov 2012 02:20:37 GMT
Earlier this year the Apache Infrastructure team asked the PMC to start migrating the our website from the confluence wiki to the ASF CMS with a deadline of the end of this year. I volunteered to look into this work, and tonight I committed the first wave of changes. The rationale behind making the change can be found in the links below, but given the delays in publishing through Confluence I think we can all agree that in the end we'll be better served by using the ASF CMS. Unfortunately this project turned out to be bigger than I originally expected, and I don't think I'll be able to contain the work on my own. So I'm looking for volunteers to help edit the site, and a volunteer to lead the effort. Committers and non-committers can do this work - although the non-committers will have to submit patches. Some background: An overview of the CMS can be found here: http://www.apache.org/dev/cms The CMS faq can be found here: http://www.apache.org/dev/cmsref.html#walkthrough Instructions for building the site are here: https://svn.apache.org/repos/infra/websites/cms/conversion-utilities/cwiki/README.txt A short summary: the website has been exported from confluence and converted to markdown <http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/>. The markdown code will then be converted to HTML and published to the apache servers. What I've done so far: * Set up the path in SVN * exported the site (more or less) * spidered the website * generated markdown from the site. * borrowed and tweaked template files to generate the main look of the site. * ran the build tool to generate html from markdown. What I think needs remains to be done: * Edit the markdown files until the generated HTML looks tolerable * Work with the infrastructure team to get the site regenerated after a commit. I *think* that's it. There are 128 or so markdown files to edit, some (maybe most) are no longer needed and can be archived. I've edited a few of the pages, and I expect that they'll get easier as we go. I'll also add instructions on setting up the build environment to the site directory in SVN to save everyone else some time. Let me know if you have any questions or would like to help, -mike

Understanding Ikan kepe-kepe 02/20/2012
KEPE – KEPE (Familia : CHAETODONTIDAE)
Ikan kepe-kepe atau butterflyfish merupakan ikan yang mempunyai warna mencolok. Umumnya berukuran kecil antara 12-22cm. Ikan ini aktif disiang hari (diurnal), sedangkan pada malam hari mereka bersembunyi diantara celah karang dan memperlihatkan warna yang berbeda dibandingkan saat siang.
Berdasarkan peranannya dalam pemantauan ekosistem terumbu karang Ikan familia Chaetodontidae ini termasuk ikan indicator, karena hidupnya sangat tergantung pada terumbu karang.
Berikut adalah gambar/foto ikan Chaetodontidae yang kami jumpai dalam suatu trip di Bali
How Much Lead Do You Need? 01/30/2012
It is very important to get your weighting right. For instance, if you have a problem at depth and your are too negative you can't get up. On the other hand if you dont have enough weight you can't stay down and complete a decompression stop when you are getting low on gas.
You weighting need to be a balance between these two extremes and when you get it right you have "a balanced rig". And it can't be calculated, it has to be adjusted in the water.
Weight changes during the diveThere are two things that will change your weighting during the dive.
Number one, that affects everybody, is the weight of the gas in your bottles. As you breath it down and the pressure drops your tanks will become lighter - more buoyant or less negative depending on their weight in the first place. In the graph above you will see the weight of 32% nitrox in a 12 liter 232 bar bottle. 1 kg is about 2.2 pounds and the size of the cylinder is similar to a 80 cuft bottle.
As you can see the difference between a full bottle and an empty one is almost 3 kg, about 6 lbs. If you were wearing doubles the difference would be doubled.
The second thing affects your weighting is material that will compress at depth, for instance neoprene drysuits or neoprene wetsuits. When you go deeper the bubbles inside the neoprene will compress and the lift (positive buoyancy) from the neoprene will decrease.
The graph is calculated using a 7 mil XL full neoprene suit just as an example but actual values may vary depending on neoprene quality, thickness and size of the suit. Precruched or compressed neoprene should show only very small amounts of compression.
As you can see the difference between being at 30m/100ft or at the surface is about 5kg / 12 lbs in this case.
Two opposite extremesSince we have the weight of the gas and suit compression that affects us during the dive we need to think about two opposite situations when we consider our weighting.
One is that we are at the end of our dive with virtually no gas in our tanksand we try to hold a decompression stop close to the surface. In this situation we are the most buoyant and we need to make sure we have enough lead to just stay down.
The other situation is at the beginning of the dive when we have full tanksand have just reached the bottom. Now we are the most negative and if we have a problem, like our wing doesn't work, we need to be able to swim the negative weight up. If that is not possible we need to have droppable weight that we can get rid off in order to be able to get up. For a nightmare scenario imagine jumping of a boat with your tank valve off quickly sinking to the bottom with no gas to breath or no gas to put in your wing.
Determining the right amount of weightOur weighting consist not only of lead but also of tanks, backplate, lights etc. Basically we need to figure out how much weight we need in total and then how much of that we need to be able to dump in an emergency.
Step one is to dump the gas in your tank so you have about 10-20 bar/150-300psi. Drop down to 3m / 10ft. You should be able to stay down but just barely. If you can't get down however, you need to add more weight.
When you are down below have you buddy check the amount of gas you have in your wings. The wings should be empty and if you have a drysuit it should just hold a comfortable amount of gas.
By looking at how much gas you have in your wings while neutral you can guesstimate how much more lead you need to remove. Each 10 cm (4 inch) cube of gas equals about 1kg (2.2lbs) of lead.
Now, if you have small weights on a weight belt you can take some of until you find the amount of weight so that you can just stay down.
If you have removed all possible weight and still are too heavy you could change from a stainless steel backplate into an aluminum one. That will be almost 3kg / 6 lbs less weight. If you have done that too you need use other tanks that are less negatively buoyant. That is actually the primary reason thatsteel tanks are not recommended for wetsuit diving because often they are simply too negative and there is no way to get the weighting right.
Determining the amount of droppable weightAfter we have figured out how much total weight we need, we need to figure out how much can be permanently attached and how much we need to be able to dump in an emergency.
With full tanks drop down to the bottom. If you have a shell drysuit the depth doesn't really matter but if you have a wetsuit or neoprene drysuit you should go deep enough so that the suit compression is significant. About 20-25m or 70-80ft should probably do the trick.
Now empty your wing completely and try to swim up. If you can't, you must drop enough weight until you can. And if you have nothing to remove, you need to reconfigure your gear.
Droppable weight could be in the form of a weightbelt but also a heavy light cannister could be considered as droppable weight. Most of the latest NiMh cannisters are not that negative though.
Using weight beltsUsually most non decompression divers use some form of droppable weight, like weight belts. The problem with doing decompression diving is that an accidental loss of the weight belt means that we wont be able to complete our decompression and could end up seriously hurt or dead. So a lot of technical divers, especially those diving shell drysuits, avoid using weight belts unless it'a absolutely neccessary.
If you use a thin wetsuit or shell drysuit with a single tank, you most likely don'tneed a weight belt to be able to reach the surface in an emergency. However at the surface you might not be able to gain positive buoyancy without dropping some weight. So consider having 2-4kg / 5-9lbs of your weight detachable or be prepared to remove your gear entirally and let it sink to the bottom.
If you feel any insecurity about whether you should dive with a weight belt or not I suggest using one. But if you have a large amount of lead consider putting some of it on your tank instead.
Stages and decobottlesWhen doing your weighting test you should not have any stages or decobottles on you. Because they are detachable they are not part of your weighting system.
You should also use bottles that will be slightly negative when full and slightly positive when empty. That means aluminum tanks are the DIR choice in most cases.
If you have a problem and are too heavy you can give some of your negative bottles to you buddy. If you are too positive you can dump them because if they are that positive they are also empty. They will end up on the surface - get them another day.
ConclusionGet your weighting right and you will be in a much better position to handle emergencies, like wing failures and other problems. Also not carrying more weight than neccessary means it will be easier for you to control your bouyancy because you don't have to fill and dump as much gas from your wings during the dive.
Remember though that you need to do this all over again when you change something in your configuration like tanks, primary light or drysuit underwear.
Also keep in mind that most of the things on this site relates to DIR diving as we use specific equipment and procedures. Not all of the logic and arguments will apply if you change some parts. If you want to use fancy words you could say that DIR is a holistic approach.
Good luck!
How to Clear a Scuba Mask of Water 12/24/2011
I was kneeling on a shallow water platform during my open water course when my diving instructor floated up to me and signaled me to put a little water in my scuba mask. Forgetting the predive briefing, I glared at him in annoyance. My mask was fine. Why would I want to let water in to a perfectly sealed, water tight scuba mask?
Although it may be counterintuitive to purposefully let water into a well-sealed mask, the mask clearing skill is one of the most important skills of the open water course. Leaky masks are not fun, but every scuba diver will find water in his mask at some point in his diving career (usually sooner rather than later). He will need to be able to efficiently get the water out without surfacing and without panicking. With a little practice, mask clearing becomes easy and automatic. Here's how to clear your mask of water.
Step 1: Relax
If this is the first time you have tried to clear a mask of water, take a moment to relax, slow your breathing rate, and review the steps of mask clearing in your mind. It is normal to be nervous about clearing your mask for the first time, but if you work through the skill step by step you should have no problems. You can even do a "dry run" by practicing the steps of mask clearing without adding any water to the mask until you are confident. When you are calm and ready to begin the skill, signal to your instructor that you are "okay" and about to begin.
Step 2: Allow Water to Enter the Mask
Before you can practice clearing water from your mask, you need to let some water into it. Allow a small amount of water to trickle into the mask in a controlled manner. It is no fun to suddenly find yourself with a completely flooded mask!
The instructor in the photo demonstrates one method of controlling the flow of water as it enters the mask. She pinches the upper mask skirt, letting just a tiny amount of water to trickle in. This method of adding water to the mask works well because it exposes divers to the sensation of water flowing over or near their eyes; something that may happen on a dive.
An alternate method of putting water in the mask is to gently lift the bottom of the mask away from your face. Water will slowly enter the mask because it has to displace the air already in the mask. This method does not allow as much control of the flow of water entering the mask.
Do you wear contact lenses or have very sensitive eyes? Don't worry, it is perfectly fine to close your eyes during this skill.
Step 3: Breathe Past the Water in Your Mask
If this is your first time practicing clearing your mask, fill it to just below eye level. Take a moment to relax and get used to the sensation of water in the mask. Practice breathing in and out using your mouth only, or breathe in your mouth and out your nose. If you feel water entering your nostrils, breathe out your nose, tilt your head down, and look at the floor. This traps air bubbles in your nose and prevents water from flowing in. See, there is nothing scary about it!
Step 4: Exhale Through Your Nose
Start by holding the top of the mask frame firmly against your forehead. You can do this with one hand placed in the center of the mask frame, or a finger on each upper edge. When you are ready, look down to keep water out of your nose and take a deep breath from the regulator. Begin exhaling slowly but forcefully through your nose, then tilt your head up while continuing to exhale. If you have difficulty exhaling from your nose, it helps to imagine that you have some extra sticky, nasty boogers up your nostrils that you need to blow out. Focus on your imaginary boogers and blooooow.
Your exhalation should last at least a few seconds. As a goal, try to breathe out your nose for a minimum of five seconds. Air from your nose bubbles upwards and fills the mask, forcing the water out the bottom. It is important to maintain firm pressure on the upper frame of the mask, or the exhaled air will simply escape from the top of the mask. Remember to look upwards while exhaling, otherwise the air will just flow out the bottom and sides of the mask.
Before you finish exhaling, look back down towards the floor. By doing this any water remaining in the mask will not flow up into your nose.
Step 5: Repeat
On a first attempt, you may not be able to completely clear a mask of water with only one breath. Don't worry. If water remains in the mask, look down at the floor and take a few moments to catch your breath. Repeat the exhalation step, focusing on breathing out your nose slowly, holding the mask firmly against your forehead, and looking up. It may take a few iterations to get the last few drops of water out, and that's okay.
If you wear contacts or have sensitive eyes, you may still have your eyes closed during this stage. Once you think you have cleared the water out of the mask, open your eyes slowly. Your instructor may tap you gently to let you know the skill is finished. It is normal to feel that your face is still wet – it is! You just had water in your mask and you haven't had a chance to let it dry yet. Don't worry, any water on your face will dry in a few moments.
Step 7: Congratulations
Good job! Now you know how to clear your mask of water. Practice this skill until it becomes automatic and comfortable. Once you are an expert at mask clearing, try the exercise in a variety of positions. You can even clear your mask while maintaining a proper, horizontal swimming position.
This skill has another application. If a mask fogs up during a dive (click here to learn more about foggy masks), you can clear the fog from the mask lens using the mask clearing skill. Simply allow a small amount of water to drip into the mask, then tilt your head down so that the water flows down into the mask lens. Shake you head gently side to side so that the water contacts all parts of the mask lens, then clear the mask normally. Presto! Now you can enjoy a clear view of the underwater world during every part of the dive.

So, I've been on two dates with a guy I met...he's really nice, but I'm not really feeling a spark between us. But anyways we went on our second date today, which wasn't too bad, but he kept wanting to hold my hand (I've never been in a relationship before, and I rarely date) and because I was too awkward, I kept making excuses so he wouldn't touch my hands or put his arm around me...
I joked about kicking him in the shin with my spike studded boots, and when we ate I burped out loud and just laughed.
I already know that I'm not an affectionate person, and he says that it's ok...but I know that it won't always be OK, he's a guy, and I won't even let him hold my hand.
I'm not sure if it's because I don't feel anything towards him, or if I'm just that unromantic...
Most Helpful Guy
Feels to me like you need to get comfortable. You need time to warm up to him and interaction to do so. The more he's around you, the easier that will be. But running from it or thinking it's a problem really isn't going to help, if anything it will only make you aware that it's happening. That CAN be a good thing, as long as you aren't your own worst critic. By being aware, you will start to understand why you feel the way you feel. Once you can understand that - you will know what to do. For example, above you stated it was "too awkward" which is a clue that you were uncomfortable. Hope that wasn't confusing?
