Boating, swimming, BBQs or just basking in the sun make excursions to recreational waters like lakes, rivers and streams pleasurable outdoor adventures loaded with fun activities and picturesque views. But what about those dangerous microscopic waterborne pathogens that you cannot see? Those hidden pathogens like bacteria and viruses can be lurking in recreational waters. To avoid getting sick, it's critical to not accidently swallow any water or drink any unpurified water.
E. Coli Bacteria in Lakes, Rivers and Streams
Lakes, rivers and streams contaminated with animal or human feces may contain the E. Coli bacteria. This waterborne pathogen causes severe diarrhea, abdominal cramps and vomiting. And an E. Coli O157 infections can lead to kidney failure, neurological damage and sometimes death. Antibiotics are not effective for treating an E. Coli infection. For the most part, folks have to recover on their own. So, how great is the risk of E. Coli in recreational waters? According to the EPA, the acceptable risk is 3.6 percent. That means that the EPA believes that it is acceptable for one in 28 to become ill.
The Diarrheal Disease of Giardiasis
Caused by the parasite giardia, giardiasis disease can be caused in U.S. lakes, rivers and streams if animal or human feces is in the water. It's a parasite that can result in a wide array of symptoms, including diarrhea, greasy stools, dehydration, stomach cramps and gas. Who's at risk? Basically, anyone who swims in recreational waters where there is poop. Even if the contaminated waters enter through the nasal passages, you can still get this intestinal infection. Luckily, prescription drugs are effective in the treatment of giardiasis.
Other Waterborne Pathogens
Other waterborne pathogens that cause recreational water illnesses include cryptosporidium, shigella and norovirus. These recreational water illnesses result in a broad range of symptoms, but diarrhea is the most prevalent. In most cases, diarrhea is just plain uncomfortable. But, it come become severe. If you have severe abdominal pain, dehydration, dark stools, a high fever or rectal pain along with diarrhea, it's best to see a doctor. There may be medications that a doctor can prescribe to make you more comfortable.
Solutions to Reduce the Risk of Recreational Water Illnesses
While there is no magic bullet to prevent all recreational water illnesses, there are some effective ways to best prevent them. Whether you're in a lake, pool or other body of water, be sure not to swallow any water. Pack a bottle of Fit Bottle for your water trip to purify the water from harmful chemicals, viruses and bacteria. Certified lab tests have proven that Fit Bottle blocks up to 99 percent of harmful chemicals, viruses and bacteria. It's a water purifying bottle that uses nano-technology and zero adhesives for protection from harmful organisms.

Kevin Smith: Oh, George. I had an excellent chit-chat this morning with one of the security guards at the front gate. Smart guy. Seemed to have a lot on the ball.
Mr. Savitsky: Yeah?
Kevin Smith: Tall, skinny dude. Kinda looked like Ben Affleck before all the cosmetic surgery.
Greg: Kevin Smith. Wow. I can't believe I'm talking to you. This is quite a thrill for me. You've done so many movies that I love: Clerks, Chasing Amy, Mallrats.
Kevin Smith: Mallrats? Dude, now I know you're kidding. Where's the camera? I'm being Punk'd, ain't I?
Jimmy: Uh, actually. I don't think you have time for breakfast.
Greg: What are you talking about? I don't have to be there 'til 10:00.
Jimmy: Yeah, you mean Greg Warner doesn't have to be there 'til 10:00. Jimmy Hughes' shift starts at 8:30.
Greg: What?!
Jimmy: Yeah, sorry. You should, uh, probably get a move on. You've been late to work twice already this week.
Greg: You want me to work as a security guard? Why don't you just get one of the other guards to cover Jimmy's shift?
Mr. Savitsky: I could, but I'm not going to. Maybe sitting in a tiny booth breathing in car exhaust and pushing a button like an orangutan might teach you some humility. No offense, Jimmy.
Jimmy: I don't want to get fired.
Greg: Jimmy, what do you think's gonna worse for you? You getting fired, or me getting fired?
Jimmy: But I like my job.
Greg: Let me explain something to you. When the host body dies, the parasites that feed upon it go hungry.
Jimmy: Look, obviously, there's been some sort of misunderstanding, but you gotta, you know, you gotta keep your emotions in check. I'm sure there's a perfectly good explanation for, for this, and when you find out what it is, it's important that you remain calm.
Greg: What... did... you... do?
Jimmy: Okay, okay, look, Christine and I used your badges, and we went to the premiere as you and Kim.
Greg: What?! What?!
Jimmy: Look, look, I'm--look, I'm sorry--I'm--I--I just thought it was a waste not to use the tickets, and so I ended up in the bathroom talking to some guy, but I didn't know he was the director! If anything, he looked like that guy with the beard from that movie, Chasing Amy.
Jimmy: No, no. I'm serious, man. The story is stupid, the effects are totally fake, half the camera shots you can't even tell what you're looking at. I mean, did this guy go to film school, or what?
Kevin Smith: Well, he did, but, you know, he dropped out.
Jimmy: Well, it shows. This is one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I think Abe Lincoln had a better time in the theater than I had tonight.
Jenkins: Well, you should be proud. I'm tellin' ya, they're gonna give you the Oscar for this one.
Kevin Smith: I don't know, man. Oscars? I didn't make this movie to win awards, you know? It was never meant to be more than a simple character study that aspired—who am I kidding? It's the fat man's year!
Christine: Jimmy, you're eating duck pâté? Do you... know what part of the duck that comes from?
Jimmy: Well, as long as it's not feet, beak or butt, I'm okay.
Christine: Have fun at the pool party.
Kim: Thanks. What are you guys up to tonight?
Christine: Just gonna go to dinner with some friends.
Kim: Oh, yeah? Where you going?
Christine: P.F. Chang's.
Jimmy: (simultaneous) Hooters.
Christine: P.F. Chang-Hooter's. It's, um, a new hybrid restaurant.
Jimmy: Yeah, there's no MSG in the food, and there's no silicone in the waitresses.
Jimmy: Alright, now that we're going to be pretending to be Greg and Kim on Saturday night, we should probably get a little practice pretending to be them tonight.
Christine: What, like going to bed without doing it?
Greg: Hey, do we have plans this Saturday?
Kim: Uh, yeah, my friend, Tracy, is having a pool party. I was kinda hoping we could go.
Greg: Oh, yeah? Good. I wouldn't miss it for the world.
Kim: Really? I thought you hated my friend, Tracy.
Greg: I do, but so does her husband, so we have a lot of things to talk about.

For complete disclosure, I should note that dead objects in the tenured (old) and permanent generations are looked at (but only during a full GC), since the compaction phase has to figure out where the live ones can be copied to. However, since in nearly all cases, more than 90% of dead objects are in the young generation, few dead objects are examined and the cost is minimal. The "compaction" phase for the young generation (minor GC) actually consists of copying the live objects to a survivor space, which is guaranteed to be empty. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.

FX has announced that an endgame plan has been finalized for The Americans. The veteran drama was renewed today for two final seasons that will conclude the series. The long lead time until the final episode should come as welcome news to fans, as it allows the showrunners ample time to plan out exactly how the story will end.
The network has ordered 13 episodes for Season 5 of The Americans, which will air in 2017. Then in 2018, 10 last episodes will wrap up the story, ending a successful run of the critically-acclaimed 80's spy drama, which has been a flagship series for FX since its premiere in 2013.

In defiance of what most political forecasts predicted, Donald Trump has been elected as the next president of the United States. As the country — and by proxy the rest of the world — hurdles towards the unknown, our staff examines how we got here, what we saw on Election Day and the surface of what we might expect going forward.

What does it mean to say that Jesus is "worthy"?
If you're going to claim that Jesus is worthy, then, you'd better be ready for conflict. Jesus said, "Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword" (Matt 10:34). He knew what it would mean to adopt his teaching and values in the midst of a sinful world.

Giulio Toniolatti, Tyson Keats and Joshua Furno return to the Aironi squad as the Italian franchise prepare to host Connacht at Stadio Zaffanella for RaboDirect PRO12 round 13 (kick-off tomorrow, Saturday at 4:35 pm Italian time, live on Rai and TG4). Scottish referee Andrew McMenemy will officiate the game.
Toniolatti, who became a father for the first time last week, returns on the right wing with Sinoti Sinoti switching to the opposite side. Andrea Masi at fullback is joined by Roberto Quartaroli and Gabriel Pizarro in the centres, completing the back line.
In the halves, after two weeks off, Tyson Keats is back at scrum-half alongside Luciano Orquera, who has kicked 12 of the last 13 attempts.
In the pack the only change is lock Joshua Furno returning to pair up with captain Marco Bortolami.
A lot of experience is on the bench with Salvatore Perugini, Mauro Bergamasco, Quintin Geldenhuys and Tito Tebaldi all in the replacements.
Aironi look for their third win of the season, taking advantage of the home field. In this season so far at Stadio Zaffanella the Italian side has collected two wins (against Edinburgh and Treviso) and two bonus points (against Ulster and Cardiff).
A win tomorrow can also allow Aironi to leave the bottom of the table if Newport lose to the Ospreys tonight. "I don't know these stats. What I just know is that we need to win and we want to do it, even just 3-0, it doesn't matter. But if we want to beat Connacht we must play with the same anger we showed in the win against Treviso", said Aironi centre Gabriel Pizarro.
AIRONI: 15 Andrea Masi; 14 Giulio Toniolatti, 13 Roberto Quartaroli, 12 Gabriel Pizarro, 11 Sinoti Sinoti; 10 Luciano Orquera, 9 Tyson Keats; 8 Josh Sole, 7 Simone Favaro, 6 Nicola Cattina; 5 Marco Bortolami (cap), 4 Joshua Furno; 3 Fabio Staibano, 2 Roberto Santamaria, 1 Alberto De Marchi.
Replacements: 16 Tommaso D'Apice, 17 Salvatore Perugini, 18 Lorenzo Romano, 19 Quintin Geldenhuys, 20 Mauro Bergamasco, 21 Tito Tebaldi, 22 Naas Olivier, 23 Alberto Benettin. Coach: Rowland Phillips.

The Mystical Origins of will-o'-the-wisp
The will-o'-the-wisp is a flame-like phosphorescence caused by gases from decaying plants in marshy areas. In olden days, it was personified as "Will with the wisp," a sprite who carried a fleeting "wisp" of light. Foolish travelers were said to try to follow the light and were then led astray into the marsh. (An 18th-century fairy tale described Will as one "who bears the wispy fire to trail the swains among the mire.") The light was first known, and still also is, as ignis fatuus, which in Latin means "foolish fire." Eventually, the name will-o'-the-wisp was extended to any impractical or unattainable goal.

We just released a superfun 380 piece puzzle of Matte Stephens new painting Manhattan (shown above). You might have seen Matte's distinctive style before, for example, his Autumn in NY painting was hanging on the wall of Mitchell and Cameron's place in the sitcom Modern Family. You can see more of Matte's work on his website.
MAYA: Tell us about this painting.
MATTE: I love NYC. The first time I saw it I was on a train from Birmingham to Boston. Birmingham doesn't have any tall buildings, and looking at the city from the train, I was just amazed at how unbelievably dense New York was.
MAYA: Which bridges are those in the painting?
MATTE: Hmmm... maybe the Brooklyn bridge and the George Washington bridge. I take artistic license with most cities I do, like I'll put iconic buildings next to each other that are 10 miles apart in real-life.
MAYA: Have you been to all the cities you've painted?
MATTE: No, I'm afraid to fly. I've had 3 shows in Australia, and they've asked me to paint Sydney, Perth, and Melbourne. They had to send me photos.
MAYA: What city would you like to see and paint?
MATTE: Paris in the 1920's. I'm looking into a Transatlantic crossing by sea.
MAYA: Tell us about your choice of colors.
MATTE: I labor over the colors even more than the drawing. I like dirty colors, muddied up colors.
I mix all my own colors- I never use anything straight out of the tube, it would bother me too much to do that.
MAYA: You have a very distinctive style, how did you evolve that?
MATTE: It's the only way I can paint, I don't paint any other way. I use goauche, it lends itself to kind of an old look, because that's what the old designers and illlustrators used in the old days, so it
automatically has that nostalgic feel to it.
MAYA: How do you decide what to paint?
MATTE: I labor over ideas and concepts. I like the absurd, and
simplifying life down to the really basics.
We have six cats, and they all have totally different personalities,
so you see those personalities in the animals that I paint. Like our one-eyed cat Irving, I can just
see him wearing clothes out of an old movie, and well, then I paint that.
MAYA: It's been great talking to you. What can we look forward to from you next?
MATTE: I'm illustrating a children's book based on the 1960's absurdist art collective Fluxus.
MAYA: I think of Fluxus as the antecedent of flash mobs, and the epitome of art-not-taking-art-seriously. Coincidentally, this sounds like a great exhibit on Fluxus in Manhattan (til December 3).

64 Grass Street was a house on Grass Street at the Lake District.
It was the place where Nathan, Marco and June were living after moving away from Guildford. One night Bloorm Vungah Bart Slitheen, Dax Fex Fize Slitheen and Korst Gogg Thek Lutiven-Day Slitheen came to the house. They killed the family and used their bodies as a skin suit. When the Goss family had gone missing and a young friendly couple moved into the house, none of their neighbours were sad. Only Nathan was missed by them. (PROSE: The Lost Boy)

We stayed here for one night on the way to LA from SF as family of 4 with 2 teenage girls. We had pre booked 2 rooms (The Love Nest & Just Heaven) some time ago after an extensive review of their website, well before our trip. We read a number of mixed reviews on tripadvisor and we wanted to check it out, as looked very interesting. We arrived early evening after a long days drive and were warmly greeted at reception then directed to our rooms. Although we had high expectations, the rooms did not disappoint. Yes they were "Quirky" but that's what we all loved about them. The toilets were amazing - I've never had my rear end washed and blow dried before! We had a wonderful dinner in the fabulously adorned " pink " Gold Rush Steak House restaurant. Our morning breakfast in the Copper Cafe was also excellent, with well presented meals and very good service. We also visited the pool area, which was beautifully landscaped and very inviting. Our only disappointment, was that we had only booked one night, as we would have loved to experience the place more thoroughly. It's definitely a place you should experience, and if we ever head back that way again, we will be sure to book at least 2 nights.

Don't get the idea that Shondel Greenwood has never tried to do his exercises before, because he has.
"But I did more of them this time," said Greenwood, who lives in Pleasantville and adds that his favorite workout moves since he started getting serious have been pushups and jumping jacks.
Greenwood may have stuck with his exercise routine more since last fall because this time, he and other clients of The Arc of Atlantic County were part of the Get FIT program, which brought them together twice a week with students at Richard Stockton College of New Jersey.
He lost about 12 pounds by working out and working on his diet - and he hopes at least 100 more, he said, ambitiously, at a Get FIT get-together late last month on Stockton's Galloway Township campus.
His friend, Brenda Phillips, also wants to improve dramatically on the five pounds she took off with Get FIT - that FIT stands for "Fitness Integration Training" - although she mainly credits some of her new friends from Stockton with helping her get in better shape.
And LaToya Smith, of Mays Landing, adds that she learned some new tricks with food to keep her weight down - while the walking, situps and other workouts she did with the students are getting her strength up.
The Family Resource Network, which describes its mission as serving "New Jersey residents living with epilepsy, autism, developmental disabilities and chronic illness," worked with The Arc and Stockton to help about 15 people with intellectual and developmental disabilities - or IDD - live up to Get FIT's name since last fall.
The Family Resource Network's Adeola Sonaike, who's also national director of Get FIT, says weight and health are major concerns in the IDD population. By her statistics, people with those disabilities are 57 percent more likely to be obese than the standard American population - which is itself getting so overweight that many people now call obesity a national epidemic.
Sonaike said her organization's goal is to use the exercise and weight-control program to cut the IDD obesity rate by about one third across the country.
People at both Stockton and The Arc were happy with how this team effort worked out over the past two semesters - but surprised at how important the social connections were that grew up over those eight or so months between The Arc clients and the college students.
"The staff is kind of like nagging parents," as Pat Jones, The Arc's chief operating officer, said through a smile. "But (the clients) were challenging themselves to work out with the students. ... I think it was like a personal trainer - kind of a combination of a group situation and a personal trainer."
And both sides hope to start Get FIT up again in September - although they're waiting to hear about how much grant funding will be available to keep it moving. But with Stockton's spring semester ending last week and most students going home for the next few months, Arc is looking for some volunteers to step up and keep its people motivated through this summer.
Arc officials say they apparently have found one volunteer who's a certified personal trainer -and who happens to live in the same Mays Landing condo complex as one of the Arc's group homes.
So that's a perfect fit, but Jones says they aren't looking only for experts or fitness pros. They'll be happy to find people who just want to help - and she emphasizes that the time, place and activities can be very flexible, depending on a volunteer's availability, location and talents. Arc staff could drive the clients to meet the volunteer at a place that works for everyone.
"It could be something as simple as a walk in the park," she said. "They could meet in different places - or it could be a walk on a boardwalk."
There was no outside exercise for the Get FIT crowd through our long winter and cold spring. "But now is the time to start some outside walking," Jones added.
(To volunteer or get more details, email firstname.lastname@example.com or call Pat Jones at 609-485-0800, ext. 160.)
When a campus visitor asked Arc client Brenda Phillips what she liked about Get FIT, Phillips insisted on calling over a few Stockton students she calls her friends, including Amanda Ault, of Brigantine, and Emily Bilyk, of Beachwood, to credit them for helping her lose weight.
Ault, a graduate student in occupational therapy, was one of the organizers on the college end. She smiled as she said she made "lots of friends. We had a good time - there's never a dull moment in Get FIT."
Bilyk, an undergraduate biology major, was excited, too, to be in on the program - which also helped out some Stockton students with disabilities.
"I just heard about it and thought it sounded like a great idea," she said - adding that she turned out to be right. She's happy to recommend volunteering to anybody who enjoys helping people.
Mary Kientz, a Stockton professor and one of the coordinators, said the college assembled students from three disciplines for the program - physical therapy and nursing, along with her own speciality, occupational therapy.
They used about 30 undergraduate students to work, and work out, directly with the clients - which gave those students experience in dealing with a population that some may soon be seeing professionally. Eight graduate students supervised the undergrads and organized and administered the program, both valuable experiences for them.
Working together with people from a collection of other disciplines was also helpful - in part because that's how modern health-care operations are organized, she added.
But probably the key to the success was that "the relationships between the Stockton students and the Arc's clients were just amazing," as Kientz said later - adding that the students were even better than their teachers at getting the Arc gang going. "The clients were much more motivated by the students than by the faculty members."
Alysia Mastrangelo, a physical-therapy professor, is confident the benefits worked both ways. She was happily surprised to see some of her students hanging around at the final get-together even after their work was finished, and they had the OK to leave.
She and Kientz added that they see so many useful skills for their students in the partnership, they hope to turn working on Get FIT into a for-credit course - one in which the college kids will definitely earn some "sweat equity," as Kientz explained, smiling.
"The students are learning about different diseases and conditions," Mastrangelo added - and then there was the help they gave the Arc crew. "Some liked the exercises. But most of them liked the interaction with the students. ... Social and emotional well-being are also a piece of good health. It's about overall quality of life."
At the end of the evening, after most of the Arc clients and Stockton students had headed back to their homes, Ernie Simmers, a native of Dorothy, in Weymouth Township, was talking about the exercises he liked doing to work on his arm strength.
He said he liked doing the pushups, presses and other workout moves. But what really made him smile was talking about the card he just got for his 57th birthday - from one of his new Get FIT friends at Stockton.

Swept up by the winds of history, the agents of Earth will have to choose a side…
When a rogue planet threatens a new Human colony, Valerian and Laureline are sent to investigate and discover a barren, rocky surface… and a whole world beneath it!

Antares #1-6 (2011-2015)
English | CBR | 6 Issues | 372 MB
The Aldebaran saga is divided into cycles, each composed of approximately five albums, and each corresponding to a different planet. Although it is possible to read the cycles separately, the first three are chronological to form a coherent whole. Each cycle (and thus planet) introduces new secondary characters, although the central heroes of the story remain constant.
The Last Templar #1-2 (2016)
English | CBR | 2 Issues
Acre, 1291. The last Crusader city in the Holy Land is about to fall. Two Knights Templar, obeying the grandmaster's orders, manage to escape the invading Muslim army on the order's last ship. New York City, nowadays. During the unveiling of an exhibition of some of the Vatican's treasures, four men disguised as Templars attack the Metropolitan Museum and steal several artefacts, including a centuries-old decoder – a loss that horrifies the Church.
Iznogoud 1-11 (2008-2015)
English | CBR | 11 Issues
Iznogoud is the second in command (Grand Vizier) to the Caliph of Baghdad Haroun El Poussah (Haroun El Plassid in English, a pun on the historical Caliph, Harun al-Rashid; "poussah" is roughly translated as "oaf") but his sole aim in life is to overthrow the Caliph and take his place. This is frequently expressed in his famous catchphrase, "I want to become Caliph instead of the Caliph" ("je veux devenir calife ? la place du calife"), which has passed into everyday French for qualifying over-ambitious people who want to become chief. Iznogoud is always assisted in his plans by his faithful henchman, Dilat Larath (Wa'at Alahf in English).

Guest post by Jessica from Mayvn
The word 'resolution' gets tossed around like a hot-cake this time of year. Even though I love a challenge and a goal, I also want to be set up for success. Healthy reminders and practical intentions are the phrases I like to use. Jessica from Mayvn here (Note: you might remember her from this tasty recipe), with a few beauty goals that leave me feeling excited to embrace another year of growing older and (hopefully) wiser.
It is so important that we take good care of ourselves physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Confidence and feeling pretty are the expected results….But I also think it is important to model healthy habits and self-respect to our children and families. These beauty tid-bits are quick and easy to incorporate into your 2013 glam game.
1. Exfoliate twice per week: One of the most important techniques in operation glowing skin is exfoliation. Sloughing off old skin cells, makeup residue, and environmental irritants is a must for moisturizers to be absorbed better. Getting the job done doesn't have to be expensive. A baking soda or cornmeal paste made with water can do the trick, but here is one of my favorite homemade recipes:
Homemade Exfoliate Recipe:
1 tsp. almond flour or finely ground almonds.
1 tsp. rosewater
Mix into a paste and gently rub all over the face. Rinse.
2. Use a daily antioxidant: This is taking the wear-your-daily-sunscreen and giving it steroids. Wearing a vitamin C serum (in the form of L-ascorbic acid) under sunscreen strengthens the skin barrier, promotes collagen production (healthy, plump skin), and gives free-radicals the final boot in their attempt to damage skin. Another option is wearing a retinol at night for repair while sleeping. I have been religious about sunscreen since the late nineties, but using antioxidants is a fairly new practice I am loving for even healthier skin.
3. Experiment more with hair: We have pinned new 'dos, seen them in magazines, and sought advice from friends and hairdressers, but it can't stop there! Whether it is new bangs, ombré hair color, or even just a ballerina bun, a fresh hairdo can do wonders for confidence. I will definitely be putting this one into practice–I have had the same hairdo since seventh grade! Just remember: hair grows.
4. Getting dailies on the daily: During my pregnancies I did not miss a beat taking my fish oil, probiotics, and whole food supplements. The little munchkins lacked for nothing in the nutrition department. I had the kind of shiny hair even Sampson would have been jealous of. Why am I not taking such care of myself now that I am not with child? Don't get me wrong, I take them…but not with the consistency and motivation like when I was pregnant. The benefits of fish oil are endless, starting with the nice nails and lustrous hair. Probiotics help with immunity, digestion, and balance. Time for them to be dailies again.
5. Finding the perfect bold lip color: I have to admit, I love my light pink lipstick and gloss. It is comfortable. I am rarely without it. Every once in a blue moon, though, I get the itch for a bold hue on my kisser. I can't tell you how many bad reds, fuschias, and corals I have bought, but there is a graveyard of them. Finding the right bold hue for specific skin and coloring is an art. This is one I have seen women shy away from because it is a bit daring to but on a red lip color for a night out on the town for the fear of looking like a clown… or worse. It is worth the time to study if you are a warm or cool; pink undertones or olive undertones, and even visit a beauty counter to try several. Believe me, when a lip color is done right it will rock your face.
6. Tea, peace, and quiet: My mama wasn't lying when she hounded me to get my beauty sleep. The older I get, the more appreciative I am of every wink of sleep I get. Several nights per week, I am going to be more intentional of winding down before I go to sleep by unplugging, drinking some herbs, and enjoying a few quiet moments before hitting the pillow. I love all of the organic de-caff teas made by Traditional Medicinals, especially the Sleepy Time. Besides feeling more refreshed, patience throughout the day and bright eyes are awesome perks of getting 7 to 8.
7. Self Check-Out: Monthly self breast exams and skin checks are the first line of defense in detecting if something isn't quite right. I've admittedly been a slacker in my 20's on this one. Not anymore. After going through my mom having cancer twice, I am a huge believer that a woman is her best health advocate. Also, getting checked out by a dermatologist once a year is essential to finding out if any spots or moles are suspicious–skin cancer is the most common of all cancers.
8. Mastering the glow: Even though we are all globbing on the sunscreen, it doesn't mean we are destined for pale pastiness-ville. This is the age of naturally formulated bronzers and tints, and there is an appropriate shade for anyone's skin tone to achieve a healthy color without looking fake. Good rule of thumb: go one shade darker than your natural skin color. I really like mineral formulas like Jane Iredale and Bare Escentuals. A great drugstore bet is Physicians Formula Bronze Booster.
Here is to your most beautiful year yet!

New Orleans' Marching Bands Short on Funds
The 38th Jazz and Heritage Festival in New Orleans ended Sunday night. It featured 23 marching bands among a hundred or so performers. Since Hurricane Katrina, many bands have struggled, especially high-school bands.
STEVE INSKEEP, host:
Well, the annual Jazz and Heritage Festival ended last night in New Orleans, and among the many performers were no fewer than 23 marching bands.
(Soundbite of music)
INSKEEP: The sound you're hearing matters because it's been endangered. Marching bands are a big part of New Orleans' culture, but since Hurricane Katrina, many are struggling, especially high school bands.
Ashley Kahn reports from New Orleans on efforts to prevent a part of musical history from becoming history.
(Soundbite of music)
ASHLEY KAHN: The marching bands of New Orleans are one of the oldest musical traditions in America. They're heard all during Mardi Gras season and its social events throughout the year. And where else but New Orleans does a funeral traditionally end with dancing in the street?
Unidentified Man #1: Once the body is in the ground, cut the body loose, time for the spirit of joy, time to dance.
Unidentified Woman: Yeah.
Unidentified Man #1: Rebirth brass band. Take it home.
(Soundbite of crowd cheering)
(Soundbite of applause)
(Soundbite of music)
KAHN: In New Orleans, the appeal of marching band starts early. Playing a trumpet or a sousaphone in high school is often cooler than being a jock.
Mr. GREGORY DAVIS (Founder, Dirty Dozen Brass Band): I've known (unintelligible) used to, you know, have this little saying, this little joke: If you're not band material, you know, try out for the football game.
KAHN: Trumpeter Gregory Davis is a graduate of St. Augustine High School, home of the Purple Knights, one of New Orleans' leading marching bands. He also founded the Dirty Dozen brass band, and apparently books jazz and marching bands for the Jazz and Heritage Festival.
Unidentified Man #2: Hey, listen up. You all got to get in front of the band, all right?
(Soundbite of music)
Mr. DAVIS: The marching band really, really was a source of pride for the school and the community. I don't think that there is another place that exists like New Orleans where the young kids have an opportunity to go out and play, to go out into the French Quarter and go out to these funerals and (unintelligible).
(Soundbite of music)
KAHN: The history of marching bands in New Orleans started long before John Philip Sousa, and it sounds very different from halftime at college football games. Trumpeter Gregory Davis.
Mr. DAVIS: The marching bands that exist here grew out of the French military style of funerals. The difference being in a New Orleans marching band, you have a little freedom to add a little bit. You can put more of yourself into the part.
(Soundbite of music)
KAHN: One can easily hear how the sound of marching bands has influenced almost every style of New Orleans music. It's in the bouncing melodies and the whirling rhythms of many of the city's soul and funky.
(Soundbite of applause)
Unidentified Man #3: The Dirty Dozen Brass Band.
(Soundbite of music)
KAHN: And especially its modern day brass bands which found a way of mixing the marching band formula with rhythm and blues and jazz.
(Soundbite of music)
KAHN: It's no surprise that the resumes of a significant number of New Orleans' best-known musicians include some marching band experience. Wynton and Branford Marsalis, Terence Blanchard, and almost every brass band member once wore a high school uniform.
Unidentified Man #4: Hey.
Unidentified Man #5: One, two, three, play.
(Soundbite of music)
KAHN: Before Katrina, school budget cuts were already making things difficult for marching band programs in New Orleans. After the hurricane, things were brought to a halt.
(Soundbite of music)
Mr. VIRGIL TILLER (Musician): All of our uniforms were destroyed. Our percussion instruments, all our sousaphones destroyed.
KAHN: Virgil Tiller is a musician who graduated from St. Augustine and is now one of the school's band directors. St. Augustine was one of the high schools hit hardest by Katrina.
Mr. TILLER: This was a $200,000 state-of-the-art band room. We have six or seven feet of water in here. We lost about 60 to 70 percent of our music library.
KAHN: Before Katrina, St. Augustine had as many as 150 students in the band. Now only 90 are available, as students who have been scattered by the storm slowly find their way back to New Orleans. Some are living with relatives and some even on their own. Again, Virgil Tiller.
Mr. TILLER: In a way, the storm helped to introduce programs in New Orleans, because now they say that without music in the schools that the heritage and the culture is gone. So now there is like inundation of support for music in the schools that people across the country has poured out.
KAHN: Money, instruments…
Mr. TILLER: Money, instruments - Coca-Cola and McDonald's gave us instruments, uniforms, money, and it helps enormously.
(Soundbite of music)
KAHN: The sound of brass instruments is only now returning to New Orleans high schools, which might be a sign that an important source of the city's music is coming back. But when a marching band is heard, the effect is always the same, whether it's a Mardi Gras parade of St. Charles Avenue or a performance at the Jazz and Heritage Festival: Hearts grow lighter, hands start waving handkerchiefs, and life, despite hardships or hurricanes, becomes a celebration.
(Soundbite of music)
INSKEEP: Ashley Kahn is author of "The House That Trane Built: The Story Of Impulse Records," and he's also a regular contributor to MORNING EDITION from NPR News.
I'm Steve Inskeep.

If you're a civil litigator like me, you enjoy discovery disputes, extended motion practice over the location and timing of depositions, lame and meaningless efforts at striking claims and defenses, multiple attacks on the form and content of the pleadings, lengthy expert depositions filled with high drama, sj motions at nearly every stage of the case, motions directed at jurisdiction and venue, and reams of motions in limine assuming you ever get that far.
Oh yeah I forgot the rare and elusive trial, desperately coveted by litigators but usually the result of lawyers failing to get their case into a posture where both sides can find an acceptable if imperfect resolution.
Still, there are always efforts to streamline this glorious process, the latest coming from the Northern District of California which has introduced an expedited trial program:
The nuts and bolts of the program include the following:This actually seems like a decent option for certain
• The program is consensual and binding;
• A case may be tried to a judge or jury;
• To participate, the parties execute an "Agreement for Expedited Trial and Request for Approval";
• Expedited time schedules and rules of procedure begin when the court approves the Agreement;
• The goal is to try the case in six months;
• Discovery is limited to ten interrogatories, requests for production and request for admission each and 15 hours of deposition time to be used at the party's discretion;
• Experts are limited to one per side absent agreement of the parties or leave of the court;
• Pretrial motions require leave of court and may not exceed three pages;
• Neither the terms of the Agreement nor its existence may be revealed to the jury;
• Juries will consist of six jurors which may be reduced to five should a juror become unable to serve;
• The judge conducts jury voir dire and sets time limits for openings and closings;
• Each side is allowed three hours per side for presentation of its case, including cross-examination;
• Post-trial motions are limited to recovery of costs and attorney's fees;
• Grounds for new-trial motions and appeals are limited.
Does anyone think we should try something like this in our own district?

First Nations vow to protect lands and waters stating no consent means no
Port Hope -- Opponents of Enbridge's Line 9 Tar Sands and fracking pipeline
are in Port Hope at the site of testing operations of the controversial
pipeline. Enbridge is conducting newly mandated hydrostatic testing on
three segments of the 40-year-old pipeline before the company can be
permitted to pump bitumen through it. Activists maintain that this testing
in no way mitigates Line 9's impacts.
"Running water through a few spots in this aging pipeline doesn't mean it
won't break, and moveover it does nothing to address the devastation
wrought by the tar sands and fracking fields," says demonstrator Niloofar
Gol. "We are opposed to Enbridge's Line 9 project because it facilitates
tar sands and fracking expansion, which is poisoning Indigenous
communities, damaging ecosystems and contributing to catastrophic climate
*What: Food Systems, Indigenous Rights, And Aging Pipelines - Local Food
BBQ Fundraiser for Chippewas of the Thames Line 9 Legal Challenge*
*When: Sunday August 23rd, 1pm in Victoria Park* (at the back of the park
near the picnic/children's area)
fb link: https://www.facebook.com/events/1638733099735326/
Are you interested in local food systems, clean water, and a healthy,
vibrant environment? Do you want to learn more about the Grand River
watershed and the treaties that bind us as residents of this land? If so,
then come to the No Line 9 fundraiser barbeque **this Sunday, August 23,
1pm, in Victoria Park**.
The barbeque will be raising funds for the legal challenge being mounted by
Chippewas of the Thames First Nation against Enbridge's Line 9 pipeline.
Line 9 puts the Grand River watershed at risk, which means a serious threat
to local farming and drinking water sources that rely on the river. The
pipeline has already had 35 significant spills, and Enbridge's plan would
have the 36th be of tar sands dilbit, which cannot be cleaned up. Line 9
has also been rammed through the Harper government's weakened approval
process without consulting affected Indigenous nations, which given the
serious environmental impact it will have, is the basis of the Chippewas of
the Thames challenge.
Joining us on Sunday are speakers from Chippewas of the Thames and Six
Nations who will discuss the pipeline's potential impacts to Indigenous
food systems and regional watersheds, as well as relevant nation-to-nation
treaties and agreements between Indigenous peoples and Canada.
The barbeque will feature locally sourced food with both vegan and meat
options. We ask for donations to the legal fund of a suggested
$5-$20 for your meal.
For more on this event, or to get more information about the Line 9
pipeline project, visit http://noline9wr.ca on the web or @NoLine9WR on
If you have any further questions please e-mail us firstname.lastname@example.com
See you Sunday!
Ahead of the June 16th court date for the Chippewas of the Thames First Nation, Rachel Avery and Dan Kellar of the Grand River Media Collective have written an article for the Media Coop discussing the federal appeal, constitutional responsibilities, third party consultation, as well as the ongoing risks associated with the Line 9 pipeline reversal project.
