Letter: Scores of neighbors oppose wind project
Scores of neighbors oppose wind project
Editor of the Reformer:
These comments are in response to a recent oped in the Reformer ("What kind of community will Windham Be? Aug. 20).
As a member of the Select Board in Windham, I responded to the oped at the Sept. 6 Windham Select Board meeting. I did that with the full intent that any of our residents who were unable to attend, would still be able to view/hear my comments online, as our meetings have recently begun being commercially recorded. Unfortunately, there were technical difficulties with the recording and it picked up the meeting just after I ended my remarks.
It concerns me greatly that the writer says negotiations are underway between knowledgeable Windham residents and the developer. First and foremost, no group in Windham, aside from the current Select Board has the legal authority to negotiate with the developer and we will determine if any illegal activity has taken place. That said, the Select Board's stance on negotiation has been consistently clear: The proposed site is not right for an industrial-scale turbine project, for numerous reasons, which have been detailed in public many times. Our town is not for sale; there is no amount of money that will make us agree to this project, which will harm the environment, animal habitat and most importantly human population. Somehow the writer has misconstrued this by saying that we fear negotiations will make the developer's proposal more appealing to residents.
The writer goes on to say that it's the "just say no" approach that fuels the divisiveness and hard feelings in Windham. I think she forgets that there was no divisiveness before the proposal was made. Is it possible that Iberdrola's standard operating procedure of divide and conquer, documented in every community they have touched, might have contributed to the divisiveness in Windham?
The writer talks about the town's past as a resource to be well-managed, but at the same time references it having been denuded for farming as well as mined in two quarries. Is she glorifying that? I'm sorry, but I cannot.
The writer further mentions the "people providing services for others who come here to enjoy the mountains," as if those same people don't or even cannot enjoy them, too. This surprises me, as I know many locals, Vermonters and flatlanders alike, who love living here and take pride in a community such as ours and all it has to offer, including hiking, kayaking, beautiful scenery and quietude. I don't understand how any full-time resident, whether they have been here six months or 60 years can condone activities the likes of what we'll see if this project is approved. The mountains, which took millions of years to form, will be devastated in an irreversible, ecological blink of an eye.
I say blink of an eye, but in reality, this will take years of noisy construction vehicles lumbering through town, building roads and blasting on the mountaintops. This does not fit my definition of enjoying the mountains.
The writer makes the point that even if she lived closer to the proposed site, she would still favor this project. In all sincerity I hope she never has to make that decision.
Lastly, the writer hopes that the "no" neighbors will accept the validity of others' opinions and the importance of negotiations for a fair vote. I ask that the writer and the others listen to their neighbors (scores of them) who have taken the time to individually write to the Select Board and emphatically request that no negotiations take place.

Origin Energy Achieves Security Transformation
Client:Origin Energy
- To achieve better visibility of the security environment across widespread production and operational assets
- Partner with DXC Technology to implement a security solution
- Improved crisis management response
- Minimized the likelihood and impact of security related threats
- Ensured alignment with the company's Security Transformation Program
Increasing security visibility
Origin Energy initiated a Security Transformation initiative to achieve better security visibility across its business. DXC Technology deployed a Managed Security Services capability including DXC ArcSight SIEM, McAfee® network IPS and anti-malware to help execute the expanded IT risk and security strategy.
Origin Energy is Australia's leading integrated energy company with a rich heritage in gas exploration and production, power generation and energy wholesaling and retailing. It has more than 4.2 million customers throughout Australia and New Zealand, approximately 6,000 employees.
Origin Energy is the largest owner of natural gas-fired power stations in Australia and also produces power from coal, wind, solar, pumped water storage and cogeneration plants. The company has major offices across four state capital cities, as well as regional sites.
The company's vision is to connect resources to markets while striving to create more valuable social, environmental and economic outcomes for society. This vision is supported by a philosophy that recognises the energy supply chain is being shaped by a growing global demand for energy, technological innovations and climate change concerns; all against a background of the need for greater energy efficiency.
Creating a competitive edge
Christoph Strizik, head of IT Risk and Information Security for Origin Energy, explains, "Our operation is focused on two business units. The energy markets business focuses on retail and wholesale energy, our renewable energy portfolio such as solar and wind, and also our online digital presence. The second part of our business is integrated gas which focuses on conventional and non-conventional gas exploration and production.
A challenge common to the energy industry is adopting and using information technology to enhance business operations and to help create a competitive edge. "One example would be smart metering, where customers can see real-time consumption of energy and the associated costs, enabling them to make decisions based on this information," Strizik said.
"Another example is how the industry connects to its customers, not just in the traditional way by phone and email, but by creating online and mobile channels that give customers more choice in the way they interact with us."
Security is central to all three examples. "Cyber security means different things for each of our business units and our management approach has to be holistic to make sure we protect what is important to the organisation, while enabling us to take advantage of and leverage technology in a safe manner.
"It has to be holistic because high risk environments can have a significant impact on the organisation if they are unavailable for any reason. There are a range of different health, safety and legislative requirements operating at different sites in different states, adding a degree of complexity and cost that is really quite challenging."
Origin Energy initiated a Security Transformation Programme to put a foundation in place to give them better visibility of security across the business. "We were looking for a cyber security programme where we could see security activities and events that were occurring and one that would position us for a future of increasing cloud services, more BYOD capability, plus anything else likely to introduce new classes of risk."
Global security innovation
DXC Technology has partnered with Origin Energy since 2011. "We were able to leverage a range of support services from DXC in our IT environment, and this definitely simplified the process for us," Strizik said. "HPE [now DXC] brings a great deal of innovation and investment around global cyber security to the table. It was attractive to us to be able to leverage that investment and expertise locally. I don't think organisations could afford, nor achieve a similar investment around cyber capabilities so fast. The ability to consume these services in a mature fashion is very compelling."
Another factor that made the DXC solution appealing was the ability to use and re-use existing processes. "We didn't have to reinvent change control or reengineer our service management capabilities," Strizik said. "This simplified the deployment and roll-out process."
In mid-2014, DXC deployed a Managed Security Services capability to help execute the expanded IT risk and security strategy that made up a key part of Origin Energy's cyber security programme. The programme covers DXC ArcSight based Security Incident & Event Management (SIEM); Managed Network Security Services, including Intrusion Detection (IDS) and Prevention (IPS) Systems; end point encryption and anti-malware for Operations Technology (OT); plus Cyber Security Incident Management.
"HPE [now DXC]'s ability to deliver the overall cyber security programme project on time and within the budget was an important factor," Strizik said. "Senior management recognised and appreciated the fact that DXC immediately understood Origin's environment very well, and as a result was able to handle a very challenging schedule, and still deliver on time."
The DXC solution leverages DXC security operations centres in the UK and delivery centres in Australia, Malaysia and India which monitor and operate Origin Energy's security capability. The SIEM service provides end-to-end visibility whereby security logs are centrally collected, aggregated and passed through DXC's intelligent correlation engine to detect security events of interest.
Fully integrated service
"One of the major benefits is the fact that we are now able to leverage a managed security service that is delivered to us by HPE [now DXC] via its centralised security operations centre (SOC)," Strizik said. "The SOC actively monitors the SIEM console 24x7 and has a robust process in place to triage and escalate as required. This delivers an end-to-end perspective in terms of seeing and collating events and then having the capability to analyse the information and provide an understanding of when to escalate incidents.
"These are connected to our existing HPE [now DXC] service desk and are assigned to the relevant groups within HPE [now DXC] for action. This fully integrated service is an important benefit because it gives us 24x7 coverage, while saving us time and expense." Strizik cites the improved crisis and emergency management response capability in the event of security incidents and a real-time capability to prevent hacking attempts as another critical business benefit. This is complemented by the ability to detect unauthorised access and abuse of privileged activities on key internet-facing systems. "The solution enables us to prevent unauthorised access at primary production sites which would otherwise adversely impact production and safety systems."
Strizik adds, "There is a high degree of complexity in our business and HPE [now DXC] understands Origin Energy's environment very well and was able to deliver on what was a challenging schedule."

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
Two days ago I was served with divorce papers (I am Respondent). The D is to be uncontested. What I need to know is 1. What docs must I complete and return? 2. Who are the documents to be returned to? She is not represented but had a preparer complete the docs. 3. Must she be served any docs? 4. A MSA was previously agreed upon and notarized, but was not filed with the court, is it required to be submitted?5. I am currently out of the city where the D papers were filed, how can I get docs to courthouse if I am not in town? thanks in advance.
You will have to answer the petition which is a response to the petition. You need to file a copy with the court where the case originated and you need to serve a copy on your ex.
Not to be rude but how you get the documents to the court is something you will have to figure out. You can call the court and see if they accept mail. You have 30 days to respond to the paperwork you were served.
Note this answer does not constitute legal advice, and should not be relied on. Each situation is fact specific and court specific, and it is not possible to evaluate a legal problem without a comprehensive consultation and review of all the facts and court pleadings filed in the case. This answer does not create an attorney-client relationshipAsk a similar question
Thanks for the short answer. I had multiple questions and you answered two. It appears you are too busy to help a vet by actually reading the submittal and answering the questions. Thanks.
You must file and first serve a response within 30 days of being served with a petition in California. Use of judicial council forms are mandatory in California. There is a website below that allows free use of judicial council forms. She must be served and you must a valid proof of service before the clerk will allow you to file your response. MSA's are typically attached to and incorporated into the Judgment in family law proceedings. You can submit your pleadings to the court via US mail pursuant to the CRC. Use a SASE, you can submit up to two copies to be conformed and returned. Good Luck!
The communication above is provided for informational purposes only. It is not legal advise and does not create an attorney client relationship with anyone. Please consider the information above and get competent legal advise from your trusted advisor.Ask a similar question
In response to your questions:
1. You need to file a Response within 30 days of the date you were served with the Petition to avoid having your default be taken (a lot of trouble to get it set aside and you can avoid it by filing your response on time). You should have received a blank Response with the Petition. You will need to have someone 18 years old or older mail your wife a copy of the response and sign a proof of service form, which you attach to the response before filing it with the court.
2. See answer to No. 1.
3. See answer to No. 1. In addition, you are required to serve her with your Declaration of Disclosure.
4. You and she must BOTH exchange your Declarations of Disclosure BEFORE signing a settlement agreement. Any MSA signed by you previously may be void if you didn't exchange declarations of disclosure before signing it.
5. There are many services that will file documents for you. Some allow you to fax or email the documents to them for filing. They charge a fee for these services. Consult a telephone directory or look up court messengers and couriers online.
My best advice to you: Consult with an attorney. Even if a local attorney doesn't practice in the jurisdiction where the case was filed, he or she can give you the advice you so desperately need right now. If you absolutely cannot afford even one hour of an attorney's time, you will need to consult the local Family Law Facilitator for assistance.
I do not represent the person who asked this question, and was not given enough information to provide a better answer. The limited information is enough to indicate that a consultation with an attorney in your area is necessary and advised.Ask a similar question
You do NOT have to file a Response if you two agree. You can file the form FL 130 and send the filing fee with it.
I have never heard of any court that does not allow filing by mail. You must send an SSAE and ask for a "conformed copy."
Yes the MSA must be sent with the Judgment but MANY OTHER forms must also be filed,and the MSA does not need to be notarized of both parties appear-- but the defaulting party must have a signature notarized if they are not appearing.
I strongly recommend unbundled services to have the forms and MSA reviewed.Ask a similar question
People aren't going to know what "unbundled services" means without an explanation. It's true that you don't have to file a Response if they have an agreement. However, since the agreement was reached before the parties exchanged the required declarations of disclosure (and as a result cannot as a matter of law be entered as a judgment by the Court), the prudent thing to do is to file a response, to avoid a default and having to set it aside, which may be beyond the expertise of pro per parties. The poster needs an attorney, and if not, at a minimum needs to consult with the Family Law Facilitator.
Great answers already. You really should either get an experienced form preparer or an attorney to help you. If you don't want to or don't have funds to pay for it, the court has self-help center who can guide you through.Ask a similar question

This is to guys who are 25ish. Would you date a 19 year old and take her seriously or would you stick to girls around your age?
Most Helpful Guy
Seeing as I am now older than 25, I can speak with hindsight. Basically my answer is this; It depends on the girl, and what she's like. If she is serious and grown up, I will treat her as such. If she is immature and stupid, I will treat her as such. I generally treated people they way they deserved, and it was not based on their age. When I was 25 I started dating a girl who just turned 19. We are still dating now. The year before that, I had a few relationships with younger girls, because I liked them at first. However, I lost interest, because they turned out they weren't who I thought they were.
Anyway, I guess what I'm saying is that it depends on the girl, and how she acts. Based on how you act, you might get treated the way you deserves, however, do not act a certain way just to impress the guy. Be yourself, and if it works out for you,all the better, but if he doesn't like you for who you are, then you're better off. If he can't treat you with respect, or take you seriously for being who you are, then you're better off. All in all, just take a chance. It's worth a shot.22|00|0
that's right...i m 25 but I wouldn't mind to date a 19 year girl, if she is mature enough...

President McKinley's body leaving the house and church
|Thomas A. Edison, Inc.
From a contemporary Edison film company catalog: PRESIDENT McKINLEY'S BODY LEAVING THE HOUSE AND CHURCH. In this picture we show a most perfect view of the front entrance of the McKinley home in the background. The hearse which is to bear the President's body to its last resting place drives into view. President Roosevelt's Cabinet forms in line on either side of the walk. The Admirals of the Navy and the Generals of the Army form lines in their rear. President Roosevelt takes his place at the head of the Cabinet and immediately the body emerges from the front door, borne on the shoulders of the soldiers and sailors. As it passes through the lines of Diplomats, Admirals and Generals, all heads are uncovered. The sailors and soldiers descend the steps slowly to the sidewalk and then the body is placed in the hearse. Here we secured another life size view. The hearse starts slowly away and President Roosevelt and his Cabinet walk toward their carriages. Then with the aid of our panoramic device we followed the hearse until it passed slowly out of view down Market Street. This scene dissolves into a picture of the body leaving the church at Canton borne on the shoulders of the sailors and soldiers and placed again in the hearse. From the time the casket appears at the church door it does not pass out of the view of our camera until the doors of the hearse are closed upon it. We follow it constantly with our panoramic device, and the views are perfect and life size. The hearse finally starts away for the cemetery, followed by the famous Black Horse Cavalry, Troop A, of Ohio.

China's stock market bubble has finally burst. The Communist leadership's attempt to control the economy has been shown up for what it is: the cause of chronic malinvestment. Once again, the hubris of central planners has made entire populations poorer.
The Chinese people are no strangers to suffering brought on by the economic insanity of their leaders. Chairman Mao – the worst mass murderer in human history – tyrannised the population through authoritarian central planning. His 'Great Leap Forward' ended up killing 45 million people in four years.
China's progress from a country in economic catastrophe to a global superpower in a few short decades is down to one thing: market forces. By liberalising the economy, making room for private enterprise and private investment, the Chinese government unleashed astonishing productivity growth and wealth creation.
But let's keep a sense of perspective: China is not a free country. People are still denied basic liberties and rights. The Government is still authoritarian and all-powerful – unchecked by either the people or the rule of law. The State still manipulates the economy. The idea that modern China has escaped its Communist past is a myth.
The dangerous results of the latest round of Chinese central planning are now coming to light. Huge new ghost cities – built by regional governments trying to keep up with national growth targets – that no one can afford to live in. A vast asset bubble, and an ever bigger mountain of credit. Enormous fiscal and monetary intervention by Chinese authorities failing to stop the rot. China is facing a serious economic correction ahead – and there is nothing the State can do to stop it.
Western commentators are facing a correction too. During China's boom, pundits were quick to jump on the bandwagon, telling us that big statist projects and contempt for liberal democracy were the way forward after all. They ignored the fundamental reason the West has been economically supreme for so long: free enterprise, and limits on the power of the State.
China's crash should be a wake-up call for the West: the only route to prosperity is to set the economy free.

The department of Saone-et-Loire is in the Bourgogne region, or Burgundy if you prefer. The locals and the French in general refer to this region as Bourgogne, it is only the rest of the world that translates it as Burgundy, so take your pick.
Burgundy comprises the following four departments: Cote-d'Or, Saone-et-Loire, Yonne and Nievre.
Most of the population of Saone-et-Loire department live in the east as this area is much better developed in terms of transport networks and has much more employment. it is not far for people to commute to Lyon which is one of France's biggest cities.
Saone et Loire offers some very diverse landscapes which are a delight to discover: hedged / bocage farmlands, vineyards, woodlands, lakes and ponds will probably seduce most of you. The department also boasts a great heritage in its buildings, Roman villages, vineyards and more.
Bourgogne is one of France's main wine producing areas, that is how you will know it as Burgundy I guess. It is well known for both its red and white wines, mostly made from Pinot noir and Chardonnay grape varieties, although others are used including Aligote, Pinot blanc, Gamay and Sauvignon blanc. The 'wine region' is divided into the Cote-d'Or, where the most expensive and prized Burgundies are found, Beaujolais where the first wines of the season come from on the third Thursday of November each year, Chablis, as well as the Cote Chalonnaise and Macon (try a Macon Village wine, my personal favourite).
The reputation, quality and heritage of the best wines, along with the fact that they are sometimes produced in small quantities, leads to a high demand and in turn high prices, with some Burgundies being ranking amongst the most expensive wines in the world.

Today I am revealing my FIFTH Stitch Fix box... it has been OVER a year since my last Stitch Fix! My only excuse for not doing a box is that I've been busy and I just didn't have time to sit down and schedule one. I am going to be better about it and try to schedule them more often. I want to try for every month, but I will probably skip the month of December... I just have TOO much going on next month, so I am planning to do another box in January.
And, my good blogging friend Lauren from Mom Home Guide is ALSO sharing her Stitch Fix box today! Be sure to stop by Lauren's blog to see what she got in her box!
What is Stitch Fix?
Stitch Fix is sort of like having your own personal shopper! You fill out a survey online (it includes photos of different outfits) and it helps them decide which outfits and which price range you fit into. They send you 5 pieces (tops, bottoms, accessories, jewelry, etc., etc.) and you decide which items you want to keep. After you've decided what you want to keep, you ship the rest back within 3 business days. If you buy all of the items you get a discount. There is a monthly fee of $20 that you will lose if you do not buy any of the 5 items. But, if you buy just one item they will subtract that $20 from your order.
And, if you sign up using my code, you'll help me earn $25.00 off my next Stitch Fix box! To sign up under me, click HERE.
Are you ready to see my items?
Item One
Market & Spruce - Sawyer Space Dye Dolman Sleeve Knit Top in Burgundy - $58.00
I mentioned in my notes that I really like the color burgundy right now, so that is why they sent me this knit top. It is such a beautiful color and I love it with the white puffer vest and without it. I wore my leather lined leggings and leopard flats and this outfit is comfortable and stylish at the same time. This top is also the perfect length to wear with leggings. I am going to be sending it back, though... because, I had too many favorites this time and my goal is to only keep one piece per Stitch Fix box.
Item Two and Three
Market & Spruce - Denver Cable Knit Elbow Patch Cardigan - $58.00
Mavi - Freida Skinny Jean - $98.00
These jeans may look a little dark (almost black) in some of the photos, but they are navy colored. I am definitely purchasing these jeans. They are priced at $98.00 which is A LOT for jeans, but I have a $50 credit I'll be using, which will make them a price I can afford. They fit perfectly and I have been needing a new pair of skinny jeans, so I am not sending these back. We all know how hard it is to find the perfect pair of jeans! I was looking for a pair that would be a dark wash or denim color, but I think navy will actually be a fun color for a change.
The gray cardigan is really cute, too and it has leather elbow patches. The cardi is pretty thick, but it didn't feel heavy when I wore it. It is incredibly soft and it fit nicely on me. I already have a marsala sweater that has elbow patches (the one I have layered under it!) and I can't afford to buy all of these pieces, so I won't be getting the cardigan.
Item Four
Market & Spruce - Chaplin Lined Hooded Anorak Jacket - $94.00
Ahhhh... I love this jacket, LOVE it. Since I'm not getting a Stitch Fix box in December, I am trying to tell myself to get TWO pieces this month instead of one. I really love that this jacket has a nice hood, too. I already have a military jacket, but it is a lighter one that is more of a layering piece... this one is longer and heavier. Darnit, why did Stitch Fix have to start carrying coats? They sent me this, because I asked them to send me a military vest, but they didn't have one and sent this instead. Anyway, the verdict is still out on this one.
Item Five
Gilli - Tawnya Dress - $64.00
This was the piece that I pulled out of the box and thought it would be the item I would purchase... the windowpane pattern is what sold me on it. I tried it on and it IS really cute... but, I started to think that I really do have a lot of black dresses already. I wore it with a burgundy scarf in some of the photos, but decided to show it to you without the scarf. I am going to pass on this dress, but I may tell them to send me a dress again next time. ON had a really nice b/w poncho with this same windowpane pattern on clearance last week and I purchased it, so I feel I don't need two items with the same pattern.
Well, that is it! I think they nailed it this time, since I'm having such a hard time deciding. I will probably purchase the jeans, which are the most boring item... but, they really are such a nice pair! The coat... I WILL talk myself out of... and, I'll try and force myself to purchase something more exciting than just jeans in my next Fix! lol!
If you decide to check out Stitch Fix yourself, please go here and sign up! If you sign up with that link, I get a $25.00 discount towards my next box. So, please sign up with that link so I can buy more clothes! ;)

InfoPro Worldwide urges unhappy UK workers to take control of their careersFranchisee recruitment plan enables people to be the boss and increase earning potential (August 23, 2007)
DMN Newswire--2007-8-23--InfoPro Worldwide (www.ipwfranchise.co.uk), a network of franchisee businesses, is urging people to take control of their careers following research revealing that almost a quarter (6.9 million) of UK employees are unhappy at work*. The company, which focuses on bringing IT services to the SMB (small and medium business) sector, is recruiting franchisees to drive its expansion into the UK market.
New franchisees will be given the opportunity to start up and manage their own enterprise under the 'safety net' of InfoPro Worldwide's comprehensive training, support and business structure programme. The scheme is aimed at people who, having gained skills and expertise in a professional environment, are looking for a career move that will enable them to take charge of a commercial entity - as well as increase their earning potential.
Simon Picken, UK manager at InfoPro Worldwide explains: ?The ambition of many self-motivated is to take control of their careers and 'be their own boss', but starting a business from scratch can be a daunting experience. InfoPro Worldwide aims to ease that process by providing the support and resources needed to give these people every chance of success. Operating under the InfoPro Worldwide umbrella enables franchisees to combine a strong local presence with the big consultancy 'look and feel'. They can also translate their own experience of being an SMB to ensure their clients receive a service that is tailored to meet individual needs, but is reinforced with IPW's proven technology.
InfoPro Worldwide concentrates on working in a consultative way with the expanding SMB market, in recognition that many smaller businesses can be daunted by the potentially complex world of technology. Its integrated approach to products and services include website development, SEO and web promotion, remote IT management, e-learning and training.
Picken confirms: ?Technology should drive a business forward and make working life more productive but so often it becomes a headache. This is particularly prevalent in smaller and medium size organisations, where there is often no dedicated IT resource and other staff staff do not have time to devote to it. Our teams of qualified professionals, operating via our network of franchisees, aim to ease that burden and ensure that organisations' IT systems assist them with achieving their specific business goals.
InfoProWorldwide is requesting anyone interested in becoming a franchisee to call +44 (0)1753 701803 or email [email protected] for more information.
* Results from international recruitment consultancy Badenoch and Clark's quarterly 'Happiness at Work Index', announced in May 2007.

Bottlenose Dolphin
Bottlenose Dolphin reproduction by Bella Hodgson
Bottlenose dolphin.
Dolphins live underwater. They are very similar to sharks only they go where the warmth is whilst sharks go where the cool weather is. Bottlenose dolphins can live in both open and coastal waters. Dolphins have adapted to open oceans and coastal waters they have become smaller in size in coastal and larger out at sea. They also have different characteristics and skill sets to match there habitat. Dolphins have been oposed to many threats over the past10 years. Including less fish from fishing boats, plastic rubbish thrown into the sea for the dolphins to get caught in and hunting they are wanted for their fins and meat.
To begin mating, the male will rub his sex organs on the females for several minutes. This process would be called a "standard" mammalian courtship. it is internal fertilization. The male dolphin will release thousands of gametes into a female but like humans dolphins only have one baby at a time however they are capable of having twins. Only one male gamete will fertilize one egg. Females are pregnant for 11-12 months. A bottlenose dolphin is a viviparity mother and their calves are k-selection. The eggs are fertilized internallyt, the calves are born alive, few offsprings can be produced and they have a long life expectancy.
Dolphins have sex for fun, like humans. They also have a midwife, a female and sometimes male dolphin that assists with the birth. After birth, the newborn is sometimes assisted to the surface to take its first breath. They are cross-fertilization.
The baby develops internally. Giving birth out in the open ocean can be quite hard One of the dolphin's primary enemies, the shark, will inevitably move in on a female giving birth; it can smell the blood a mile away. A pod of dolphins will form a circle around the new mother to ward off attacks until the birth is complete.
When a dolphin is first born, the first act it will try to do is feed off it's mothers milk. The sacs they are able to get the milk from is located under the belly of the mother. Baby dolphins are forced to feed as quickly as possible, so they can quickly surface and take a breath! Dolphins have had to adapt to being under those conditions and be as quick as possible, so the baby does not die. Because dolphins can't actually latch onto the mother, like human infants, female dolphins have evolved to squirt the milk directly into the baby's mouth when they go to latch on.
The mother will take care of her baby until the baby reaches the age of 2 years to up to 8 depending on if it is male or female. Females mature at the age of 7-12 years of age while males can mature at the age of 10-15 but males will leave their mothers early
dolphins are known to engage with each other sexually, and they are credited
with having strong homosocial bonds. Bottlenose dolphins have been found to trail females for weeks, until they become active again. But unsettlingly, bottlenose dolphins have also been shown to engage in "forced sex" with unwilling females.
Parental care- Mothers will stay with their babies until they mature which can vary. The mother will stay with her group and the baby will need to keep up if it has a disability the baby will be left to fend for itself.

The modern fleet manager has a range of different vehicle options to choose from, each with its own unique set of pros and cons for them to address.
One type of car will not be applicable to every job. For example, fleet managers providing for tradespeople will get little mileage out of tiny hatchbacks, but may want to consider purchasing either utes or crossover SUVs.
On top of this, those looking for green cars might also have to make compromises, as some sectors of the market are better suited to meeting these demands than others.
Here are 5 common vehicle types and the ways they can serve a fleet.
1. Sedans - The quintessential passenger vehicle
One of the oldest, and most well-established, modern designs. Typically comprised of four-doors and defined by their practicality, there's a reason automotive manufacturers have produced these vehicles for such a long time.
Because of their well-established position within the automotive landscape, most manufacturers have refined their designs over the decades, giving fleet managers a range of options to choose from.
Sedans run the full gamut of automotive options, from green cars like the Toyota Camry Hybrid to sports-oriented monsters like the latest BMW M3. Chances are there's a solution that is perfect for any fleet.
- Pros - Plenty of space and a range of versatile options.
- Cons - Not as efficient as a hatchback or as spacious as an SUV.
2. Hatchbacks - The ultimate city car
Businesses that rely on a nimble fleet to navigate city streets with agility should look no further than the current crop of modern hatchbacks. Ignoring the 'hot hatch' performance variety that's been thrilling enthusiasts on a budget since the 80s, the rest of the options synthesise practicality and sportiness.
Few people will be surprised that Toyota is dominating this market. While the Corolla has been a dependable hatch for decades, the even more compact Yaris has also made an impact in the 10 years it has been around.
According to Toyota, drivers of all shapes and sizes have been snapping them up at a rate of 54 units per day, with a number of these surely finding service in the country's fleets.
- Pros - Great combination of practicality and efficiency.
- Cons - Small size means it's not an option for every fleet.
3. Utes - Keeping Australia's tradespeople on the go
While not quite the size of the 'trucks' that dominate American roads, Australia's utes are more than large enough to handle the punishment they're likely to take on the country's construction sites.
Prioritising function over form, in many cases, utes are an exercise in creating purpose-built machinery from the world's automotive manufacturers. For tradies, there's little else that will do the job. Although an SUV might be capable of carrying the same amount of equipment or towing an equal load, few are built to sustain rugged environments.
That's not to say these cars are light on features. Many, like the Ford Ranger, still come with a range of gadgets in the cabin, and are available in dual-cab varieties so there's space for the whole family.
- Pros - Built to handle extreme conditions.
- Cons - Constructed for work rather than play.
4. Crossover SUVs - New kids on the block
These vehicles have quickly become cash cows for many automotive brands, with rabid consumer and commercial demand creating a buzz around the various models available in Australia.
SUV sales rose 20 per cent throughout the last year.
While they may draw ire from the country's petrol heads, the most recent sales figures from the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries suggest the hype is genuine.
According to the organisation, total SUV sales increased by 20.5 per cent in October in comparison to last year's numbers. Small SUVs, in particular, were the catalyst for this growth, as sales for these vehicles rose 37 per cent, dwarfing the figures for the medium and large varieties.
- Pros - Jack of all trades.
- Cons - Master of none.
5. All-electric vehicles - The odd one out
While not as rigidly defined as the types of vehicles listed above, the growing demand for green cars means these are a notable point of interest for many fleet managers.
The current entrants to the market, including the Tesla Model S and the Nissan Leaf, could provide insight into the future of fleet management in Australia. However, the vehicles are currently still in the early adoption phase, as is the case with most emerging technology.
Once these options gain traction, and the supporting infrastructure develops, they are likely to represent the future of the automotive world.
- Pros - Zero emissions, no fuel consumption.
- Cons - Relies on supporting infrastructure that is still in development.
Regardless of the type of vehicles fleet managers choose for their business, they'll need dependable telematics solutions to ensure efficient operations. Contact the team at Smarfleet to find out how this software can help.

December has been a wild and wonderful month! All the dorms enjoyed the annual Open House at the President's Home. The food was delicious and dorm students made ornaments for the tree. Several students attended the Talladega College Choir Christmas program and had their picture made with Mr. and Miss Talladega College. While some dorms cheered on our Warriors in a basketball game, others attended the city's Christmas parade. Henderson Hall and Preuitt Hall celebrated birthdays with a dinner and party in their dorm. The dorm staff enjoyed a delicious potluck lunch to celebrate the Season. We all supported the Hackney Classic basketball tournament and still found time to support "Christmas on the Square". Jemison House dined at "Top of the River". Weaver Cottage saw the Christmas lights at Noccalulu Falls. McDonald and Henderson Halls shopped at Grande River. Thornton Hall chose Buffalo Wings for their outing. It has been busy, busy, busy with homework and exams. There is always something good to do and learn from at ASD! MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Komrades of Kitamura Kou
Join Date: Jul 2004
Location: Where I can learn to be lonely.
Age: 32
Kou's talk with Akane at the start was an interesting portrayal of how he both knows so little and also so much of what really goes on inside the head of Aoba. He clearly understood so much of Aoba's frustrations at the limitations placed on her being on unequal terms with everyone else by virtue of being a woman, but also seemingly very little of what truly drives Aoba now as compared to the past.
Azuma as we would expect any person to be is almost completely out of it. He's not the machine he sometimes seems to be and it's obvious how much he is affected by inadvertedly injuring her. In a role reversal, it's Kou's turn to be the wingman and.. uh... yeah he really didn't say much. For Azuma it's a flashback of the days with his brother, and I'm expecting his play to suffer as a result.
Aoba as usual brushes it all off by being her regular pissy and demanding self. Thing is, everyone knows by now and her face just gives it away.
That proposal was so full of hilarious fail that words are not needed to describe it.
Do we have to question Akaishi's true intentions? Perhaps he still lives under the assumption that Kou still has a thing for Wakaba so much so that he's willing to go out with a look alike. Perhaps he thinks this is what Kou wants and perhaps he thinks he's doing him a favor. Perhaps Akaishi has a different agenda? No one knows for sure right now.
Best scene of the episode of course is everything between 16:00 and 18:30. Sure the flashbacks were somewhat emotionally manipulative and in-your face, but that small gesture of bringing her her glove and ball was enough to get her out of her depressive rut to make her want to improve as a training pitcher to help the team get to Koshien. Again, another proof that we need KouxAoba at some point before I am forced to rain blood and violence in the streets.

Tsukiyomi -Moon Phase-
nice episode. Aoba must have been pretty injured if she has to stay in the hospital because her leg got hurt. I think Aoba has some feelings of Azuma because she wanted Ichiyo to stop talking when she said Azuma might have feelings for Aoba. Akashi has feelings for waka and now also for Akane but he set Kou and Akane up so that he could Akane smile. I guess is if Kou doesn't end up with Akane (I hope not) than Akashi would be would Akane. It looks like Ichiyo agreed to marry Azuma's brother but under one condition. Well the only condition I can think of related to the story is if Kou and others get into Kosien. This would make Azuma's brother give tips and advice on how to get into Kosien, I don't think he can practice with them. I don't think it would make much of a difference though.
Nomo drawing song is back, now with some christmas themes. Next episode" It's his first date" I'm guessing it's Kou's first date after Waka's accident.
Aoba with Azuma's eyes. lol does that mean Azuma is always half awake?

Akaishi got pretty much all the good lines this time. Anyone else went "phew" when Akaishi set down that whole box of bottles before Akane called out to him? It'd totally suck if he dropped all of that... =P
PS. 25 numbers were called out, but the coach said "The above 26 people". Intentional "mistake"?

I thoroughly enjoyed this episode. Everything from Junpei's proposal, to Akaishi giving Akane Kabuki tickets, and to the sleeping Kou and Aoba in the hospital. It seems Kou is not as straight forward either (just like Aoba) about his feelings. It was especially nice to see Kou's visit and interaction (or lack thereof) with Aoba to cheer her up in the hospital. The Junpei scene was really funny too. It was a perfect dawn evening and moment, and then that happened...

I'm temporarily back to Mexico, so last week was pretty hectic for me and I couldn't watch the episode till now. But wow, did the episode delivered. Not only are they seamlessly integrating the female selection tryouts into the main stoyline and thus giving more and more depth to Aoba's character than what was already there in the original script, not to mention Azuma elder confession scene, of which we only got a passing mention in the original material, but everything was done perfectly to a tee. Have I mentioned how much I love the OST in this series?
As for the people getting impatient with the slow development, sit back and relax. The author knows what he is doing. I hope.
That said, there was a little joke that didn't make it to the anime that i would have lilked to see.

didn't really like the added "national team" bit because it's just SO not aoba. She could care less about baseball if it weren't for wakaba's dream she'd have quit just like she said she would. Also her reasons to play baseball are more rooted in the inequality that she has to endure even with all her raw talent, it's not about playing on large stage it's about proving to herself that she can compete with kou for wakaba's attention. It's perpetuated but with this addition it takes some of the integrity from her character.

That's not true, at all. Aoba clearly and very much openly LOVES baseball - it's not some issue with Kou over a perceived fight for Waka's attention, or anything like that.
You may be missing the picture, here.

I'm surprised with some of the filler they've fit into the show given how much ground they have to cover from here until the end of the series. So far is works out to something a little under 3.5 chapters per episode (Sometimes they change things around, like with the first volume where they spread a lot of the material around a series of episodes in flashbacks) and they have 14 episodes left to go with about 44 chapters unfinished.... so that means only 5 more chapters of the comic left? Over the next three months?
If it ends this soon I'll be seriously disappointed.

I meant baseball in the sense of competing on the female stage. In the end she doesn't proceed for selection because she doesn't want to. In the manga atleast while she's in the batting cage with Azuma there is no hints that she did want to. All her work is poured into being recognized by the male baseball world which she idolizes. I mean midori begs her countless times to challenges/play but she just doesn't see the appeal when there are pitchers like kou and batters like azuma, in a sense being "recognized" by the people who recognize them she'd would be happy.

Dr. Fultz
Dr. Fultz is an expert in his field and is well thought of by other doctors. He is kind, pleasant to talk and will to help you in any way possible. I wish my PCP was like him !

I love Dr. Fultz. In 2008 when I was T-boned in a car accident, I went to what was considered one of the top Orthopaedic Surgeons in the area. This doctor blew me off and told me nothing was wrong. When I could no longer walk this surgeon would not return my calls. I found Dr. Fultz through a friend. By the time he walked into the exam room to see me after looking at my x-ray he knew exactly what was wrong. He was wonderful through the whole process. In the hospital after talking with some of the other patients in PT, they were complaining they hadn't even seen their surgeons since surgery. I want you to know Dr. Fultz was right there. His bedside manner is totally different then how you see him in his office. He is there for you. He speaks to you before the surgery, not anyone else. He explains things clearly, and he is there everyday to see you in the hospital after surgery. I don't need a doctor that wants to visit and be nice with you at every visit. I want a doctor that is great at what he does. So, if I have to wait an hour to see him because he has to spend a little more time with someone who needs it, I am all for that. Two knee replacements and going to see him about a hip, and I am only 55. He gives your life back to you.

It All Depends
I thought Dr. Fultz was a pretty good surgeon, but a lousy doctor. When it was clear I needed surgery, I had his full attention. When I had other issues that required more time and tests, I was passed off to Brandy. Dr. Fultz never even bothered to poke his head in the room to see how I was doing. I don't have an issue with PA'S however; Brandy's attitude is terrible. The final straw came when, for a second time, I was put in a 6X8 exam room with the door closed for 2 hours...no one came in to update or check on me. I addressed this issue and Dr. Fultz's apparent lack of interest in his patient, with his secretary. I got "lip service" because it happened all over again at my next visit. In talking with patients in the waiting room, I found out that is what he does, consistently. Heathcare premiums, co-pays etc have skyrocketed. I will not pay good, hard earned money to any provider who treats his patients with so little respect, care and compassion unless, of course, surgery is indicated.

I have to disagree
I have been a patient since 2008 and have had two successful surgerys. I plan to have a third this summer. I will admit the wait times can be very long, but the follow-up visits are always much better - at least for me. Dr. Fultz will spend time with me if I have questions and I have had no problem with Brandy the PA. PAs are very capable and I even have them at my cardiologists. If you know anything about their training, you know it is not easy either. The staff has been very kind to me including the nurses and I have never had problems obtaining records. I will admit that he is a surgeon and gets to the point of the problem. Granted, I wish that he would loosen up a bit and improve the bedside manner, but his skill more than makes up for that. I have had issues witht he other major orthopedic group in town and I would recommend Dr. Fultz to anyone!

He is thorough. He will run tests to determine what type and if you need surgery. Unless it's apparent that you need surgery, don't go to him. He will remind you he is a surgeon and surgery is what he does many times. If surgery is not necessary, you're a waste of his time. He did not want to discuss any reasons what may have caused a sudden onset of debilitating pain in my back that made it almost impossible to move. Because there are no structural problems, he has no answers. He is highly recommended otherwise.First visit was 2 hours in the exam room. I was not given a reason why, and no one came to check on me during that two hours. I'm not sure if they forgot me, or if there was an emergency. Two other visits were approximately 15-20 minutes wait.The staff seemed annoyed with me. They did not want to be personable at all. I bulked at so many tests. I observed and it appears there were some "pet" patients they would smile at and converse with. Otherwise, they did their jobs well.

HORRIBLE - do NOT see this doctor!!!
Dr. Fultz is horrible. I had a knee injury. To my understanding of my symptoms, it was a meniscus tear. He took an x-ray and injected my knee with a steroid. The steroid injection did absolutely nothing, as I told him it would, and for that reason requested that he not do it, but he insisted anyway. When I went back for my followup visit and reported no improvement, he immediately suggested surgery, without even doing an MRI. When I asked for a copy of my xray summary report, to which I have a legal right, I was literally grilled over the phone if it was because I was seeking a 2nd opinion. The receptionist literally asked me if i was "the girl who wanted copies of her records so badly?" When I told them that I was not comfortable being put under general anesthesia and having surgery performed without having first had an MRI to make sure that it was in fact a meniscus tear, I was told that the physician's assistant (not even the surgeon -- they allowed a mere physician's assistant to make this call!!) that they thought I was only asking so I could take the MRI to another surgeon for a 2nd opinion and that they didn't think it was medically necessary. This office is COMPLETELY unprofessional and rude. If you want to spend no more than 5 minutes with the surgeon, have the surgeon not listen to your concerns or suggestions, and not perform obviously needed MRIs prior to surgery, then this is the place to go. However, if you want a good quality surgeon, go elsewhere. this place is horrible

Commonly used disinfectants in some health institutions in three major towns of northern Nigeria were examined for presence of bacteria contamination. For each disinfectant, stock, freshly diluted and left-over of used diluted samples were analyzed. All the stock samples were free of bacteria contaminants while 52.17% of hospital freshly diluted and the left over samples had bacteria contents ranging from 3.1x101 - 1.6x104cfu ml-1. Most commonly isolated bacterial contaminants were E. coli, Ps. aeruginosa, and Staph. aureus. Other organisms also isolated were Proteus spp. and B. subtilis. Antimicrobial susceptibility studies showed that 90% of the isolates were relatively resistant to chlorhexidine gluconate.

Research Project
Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (A)
Proteins containing nonnatural amino acids at specific sites (alloproteins) were preparaed by the extension of gentic engineering technique. The alloproteins were endowed with artificial functions by the incorporation of nonnatural amino acids carrying specialty side groups. The results are summarized as follows.(1)Extension of Amino Acids : A variety of nonnatural amino acids carrying specialty side groups were newly synthesized and tested for the adaptability to in vitro E.Coli ribosomal system. Those that carry linear aromatic groups were found to be accepted by the ribosomal system. The results opened a way for the photo-and electro-functionalization of proteins.(2)Extension of Genetic Code : Codons that may be assigned to nonnatural amino acids were searched. Some 4-base codons, such as CGGG and AGGU were found to be effective for this purpose. The 4-base codons may be used for multiple incorporation of different nonnatural amino acids into single proteins(3)Use of Monoclonal Antibodies as the Controlling Factor of Alloproteins : Monoclonal antibodies aganinst nonnatural amino acids were prepared. Those were used to photo-and electro-contorl of alloproteins that carry azobenzene groups or anthraquinonyl groups.

I'm doing a wedding cake for a friend soon and I just got stumped. (Maybe it's just too early in the morning for my brain to function correctly )
She asked for a 3-tier to feed 100 people. However, she does want to save the top tier. So... typically when I make cakes to save the top tier, I make that top tier a 6 inch round. But if I do that, the bottom two tiers will need to be at least 12-10...and with a 6 inch top, wouldn't that look goofy?? Or should I just make the top tier an 8 inch for her to save? That sounds kind of big to me for the freeze-cake. Or should I just tell her she's going to to need another tier?
Thanks for any help and other ideas!!!!
According to the Wilton chart, a 10 inch serves 38 and a 14" serves 78, so you could do 6-10-14 and it would look just right.
Oh good grief, I never even thought of a 14!!! Thank you for that!!! I only have up to 12" pans so I just never thought about it!! But this is perfect!! YAY! Cake pan shopping for me!!
Thank you!!
Measure your oven first. Especially if you have a gas oven it may not fit! You can always buy the half pans....

Uma Thurman doesn't seem the type to tackle a high fashion trend - let alone something as high maintenance as 'The Bustle' - but tackle it she did at the LACMA Art & Film Gala in LA.
The crafty design types at Lanvin probably had a wacky fashion type like Lady Gaga or Tilda Swinton in mind when they decided to single-handedly bring back Queen Victoria's skirt of choice.
'The Bustle Skirt' is a skirt plus (and here comes the science bit) a whole lot of scaffolding and framework beneath to prevent the material from dragging.
Popular with Victorians an Mary Poppins types, it's the enemy of anyone who prefers comfort over style. And sitting down to standing up.
But, now that style stalwart Uma Thurman's had a go, it's only a matter of time before the high street start churning out some styles of their own. Meaning - come January – everyone will be doing the hustle.
And 'everyone' means YOU. Scared?
Don't be. First up, it'll be worth it just to see your manfriend / best friend / cat's face when you ask *serious face* "Does my bum look in this?"
(NB The answer will always be yes).
Secondly, it'll never catch on. Or will it? Thoughts below...

As a responsible pet owner, you're naturally concerned about the types of plants your dogs or cats are exposed to outside your home. Since some trees, plants and bushes are toxic to animals, you must consider the safety of your pets when landscaping your property.
Magnolia Trees
Magnolia trees and bushes can make beautiful additions to your yard or garden. Magnolias trees are commonly used for foliage and include varieties of evergreens. Fortunately, Magnolia trees and bushes are not poisonous to dogs or cats, making them viable options for pet owners.
Non-Toxic Trees
According to the Animal Poison Control Center, magnolias are listed as non-toxic to dogs, cats and horses. This makes planting these trees a pet-friendly activity. If you're planning a garden and choosing plants, consult the list of toxic and non-toxic plants available on the ASPCA website.
Lawn Care Products
Many lawn care products can be toxic to people and their pets, depending on dosage. Dogs and cats can ingest these chemicals by licking the plants or through exposure to the skin--generally, the smaller the animal, the faster the reaction. Lawn care products are easily absorbed in liquid form, so keep your pets away from the plants until the chemical dries.
Unknown Plants
While magnolias are non-toxic, plenty of plants are toxic. If your pet has eaten a plant and appears to be having a reaction, you should immediately take your pet and a sample plants in the immediate vicinity to your veterinarian.

Without knowing where exactly you're located (geographically) I cannot say. Pomeroy is nationwide (I'm guessing) and there are others. I would run a google search on Pomeroy and see who else is parked on their results. You could ask your Pomeroy rep, but that's somewhat unethical IMHO.

The problem of keeping liquids hot or cold, while on the go, has been around since before I can remember. Perhaps the Reduce 64 oz Stainless Steel Growler will be the answer to this ongoing issue. As advertised, it was designed for beer but it could be used for other beverages like iced tea, lemonade, water, soda, whatever you can think of. I'm particularly interested in whether this container can indeed retain the carbonation in beer and soda. I especially hate it when whatever I'm drinking starts to taste like the plastic that the container is made from. The Reduce Growler does not have that problem. The vacuum insulation keeps cold liquids cold for up to an impressive 48 hours. Now that's something I really have to see. We're still in the midst of summer so keep yourself hydrated with the help of the Reduce 64oz Stainless Steel Vacuum Growler...you'll never want any other bottle or jug.
