Every educator deserves to teach in a safe and orderly school.
When schools are safe, teachers can focus on developing students' knowledge and skills, cultivating strong relationships with students, and building and maintaining classrooms where learning is the first priority. The influx of zero-tolerance discipline and other harsh discipline practices in schools across the country, however, has jeopardized educators' ability to do just that.
The whole premise behind zero tolerance and harsh discipline practices is to be rigid, consistent, and tough; considering a broader context is simply out of the question. Teachers – the individuals in the school building who know the students best – are provided with little to no discretion. They are required to respond to most incidents in the same way. This tells teachers that schools do not trust them to use their own judgment. It also minimizes any relationships or bonds formed between teachers and students.
Most teachers will agree that students arrive at school with different levels of social and personal skills. Some may be better prepared to function in a school environment, while others are not. If we just suspend or exclude students without tackling the root of any problems, students will continue to act out and/or misbehave, resulting in an unproductive cycle for teachers, less safe schools, and ultimately impacting their day-to-day ability to teach effectively. At a time when teachers' every move is being studied with a microscope, we need to do more to provide them with alternatives and strategies that actually teach students appropriate behavior.

I think I now have a handle on Napolean's atittude problem. And as a short person who rides the NYC subway everyday I too have moments where I want to conquer Europe. Everyday I get off the subway only to have to walk up stairs to get to the street. Everyday, someone's ass in my face.
At 5ft 1in I'm at perfect face to ass height while climbing stairs. It's very stressful. I don't know what my co-commuters have been eating, I could be erradicated at any moment. It's times like these when I just want to put on a blue army uniform, wear a big ridiculous hat, get on a white horse, and send Europe back to the stone-age. In the Stone-Age Europeans were not settling on North America. Their anscestors weren't digging subway tunnels and erecting staircases. I'm just saying. Maybe Napolean had a point.

I don't know if it's a height thing; I'm 5'8" and wind up with an ass in my face on the subway stairs pretty often too. And since that diet drug that makes you poop your pants came out, I'm extra afraid.

Korn - The Path To Totality
Korn have always tried to be different. From the beginning of their careers they have always done something on most albums that is a little different. On their first album they did a song about nursery albums which had a bag pipe opening, they brought hip-hop back to the metal table with Follow The Leader and joined in on the synth pop back during their untouchable period. So when they said they would do an album with a dubstep tone, it was not a real surprise to your blogger. It pissed a lot of people off, some people where disgusted that the band would go down this direction. However, they have always been fame whores. They are just like David Bowie - following whatever is the current trend and making it their own. With only three of the original members left due to one reason or another, is this really a Korn record or is it just a pile of shite (or both).......
Now musically this is a lot different to what has in some ways, there is more groove here (and not in a groove metal way). The beats and programming is a fascinating and of a very good quality. The producers for this album include - Skrillex, Feed Me, Kill the Noise, Noisia, Datsik, 12th Planet, Downlink, Flinch, Excision, Jim Monti and J Devil - with the whole production job being over seen by singer Jonathon Davies. Some of these tracks have such a sonic kick it is almost a positive statement for dubstep which is often looked down up. When the music sounds this good, I can see why a lot of people love it and what attracted Korn to work with these guys.
But there is a massive problem with this album - it is Jonathan Davies himself. The man has been writing the same self hating lyrics for as long as Korn have been going. Yes, he has had a shitty childhood - lots of people have been through the shit and I do hope he gets help or has gotten help - but some of his demons that he talks about are of his own making and the self pitting lyrics are just a step too far. The reason why Korn have never truly took over the world is that whilst they are ever changing, they have not grown - and this bring the whole album which could have been such a truly diverse album if they had have truly went out of their comfort zone; but instead they just made something that I view as a disappointment. I really love the music, but the lyrics are just high school awful. If they keep this direction going I hope they get some better lyrics as the performance is still really good. So frustrating, so very bloody frustrating.
2.5 out of ten - If only there was some quality control

Second Chance For Max Headroom Lyrics
Artist: Sum 41
Album: Half Hour Of Power
It's not enough you passed it for a while,
You can't afford the amass of denial.
Don't explain, you can't arcane it too.
Your lies surpassed your doubt.
Don't do something you'll regret
It's not enough you passed it for a while,
The time you take,
Your minds mistake,
Time worth throwing all away.
It's not enough attention,
Though you're too proud to mention,
I can't go on pretending,
That it's still the same

Liam Hemsworth looked in a great mood during his appearance at a Bench store at the Glorietta Mall in Manila, Philippines on Friday (March 15).
The clothing label posted photos via Instagram and wrote: "He's all smile during the press conference held this afternoon. Don't you find him cute in this photo? #LiamHemsworthLovesBENCH #Bench #globalbrand #presscon #LiamHemsworth"
Liam made it to this event but won't be attending the March 19 premiere of his film Empire State in Tampa, Florida for reasons unknown.
Things still appear shaky between him and Miley Cyrus. While in Australia – he stayed in a $1.6 million house his parents purchased in late 2012.
Meanwhile Miley has explained through Twitter why her engagement ring has been seen off her finger. When one of her back up singers – Lindsey J. Lee – tweeted on Thursday, "had to send off my engagement ring today to get fixed… one of the little diamonds fell out… I feel naked without it, so sad!"
Miley replied, "ugh that's the worst! I just had a similar situation except when it happens to me then everyone says my wedding is off."
Lee then wrote back, "@MileyCyrus OMG that sucks! people just need to mind their own business 😉 I saw first hand how happy u & Liam are"
The Can't Be Tamed singer's tweet has since been deleted.

First Nation students in North Central BC will get better opportunities closer to home thanks to over 7 million dollars from the Federal Government. Over the next decade, skilled labour will be in demand unlike ever before. The Prince George Nechako Aboriginal Employment and Training Association held a job fair and workshops at the Civic Centre to encourage employment throughout the community. They plan to launch a new skills training initiative that uses that money over the next four years to help ensure that needed positions get filled. This is part of a large-scale training initiative called "Industry Connections", and will specifically educate students in areas like trades, camp management, engineering, transportation and office technology.
The Aboriginal community is the fastest growing population in the country and offers a solution to these predicted labour shortages. Through the Industry Connections project, it is estimated that over 800 Aboriginal citizens will receive education and skill development that is not only geared to what the nation needs, but also provide these individuals with long-term employment.

This pdf is 6 pages long, 1 page front cover, 1 page editorial, leaving 4 pages of content. What do we get? Well exactly what the title suggests:
Random acts of Old West violence provide us with 100 (suitable for a d%-throw, old-school, baby!) different acts of violence to kick off encounters, adventures or even just a diversion and an organic environment. In contrast to its predecessor, this one is geared specially towards a theme, the Old West. The pdf does benefit quite a lot from this focus, making deputies drunkenly blurting out information about future robberies, beaten up saloon girls, cattle stampedes and problems with and around railroad tycoons a nice array of ideas you can scavenge.
Editing and formatting are top-notch, I didn't notice any glitches. The pdf has no bookmarks, consisting essentially of one d%-array and layout adheres to the 2-column b/w-standard we know from 4WFG. The two pieces b/w-artwork are neat. However, you should be aware that this is a system-neutral pdf containing only ideas and no stats to back them up. I enjoyed these acts of violence and their thematic focus, but on the other hand, the acts could have been a bit longer. They are better written and more versatile than in the predecessor, though. Thus my final verdict will take these improvements into account and clock in at a 4-star verdict. Nice pdf for a some Old West window-dressing.
Endzeitgeist out.
Random Acts of Old West Violence by 4 Winds Fantasy Gaming
This product is 6 pages long. It starts with a cover and credits. (2 pages)
Acts of Old West Violence (4 pages)
Here is a chart of 100 acts of random violence for the old west. You can either roll randomly a d100 or just pick some. While the acts are designed to work for a old west setting most of them could be adapted or just used as is in any setting including a fantasy one.
Closing thoughts. The art work is black and white, it is pretty good. Editing and layout is good. I didn't notice any mistakes. There is not a lot to say about the product you basically get 100 two sentence window dressing and while it says violent not all of them are. Some you come across after the fact and some could lead to violence but may not. A couple of examples is, outlaws harassing a bar keep, finding a wanted posted for a local outlaw, finding a prostitute beaten up etc. Mostly they make interesting window dressing to show the world is moving and other things happen other than what the PC's do. I like this one better than the first one in the series. Mostly because I think the acts are a little more interesting and better thought out. So what's my rating? I am going to give this one a 4 star review. If you want a chart of random acts to roll to give some window dressing to a old west setting or honestly any with a little tweaking it is worth the price.
Trust me, I'm a Succubus.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW: A system-free chart for western RPGs by 4 Winds Fantasy Gaming, this essentially amounts to 100 "if you're stumped"/random encounter charts, just roll 1d100 and go. It's 6 pages (really 4, once you get past the cover and credits) and has no names or stats attached to the encounter seeds, so you could use it for Aces and Eights, Deadlands, whatever.
WHAT WORKS: IT'S A RANDOM ENCOUNTER TABLE. If you read my reviews, you know I LOVE this crap. Roll the dice before the game and BOOM (a few encounters work better with a little set-up). For instance, #22 has a pack of coyotes wandering into camp while the PCs are sleeping. #43 has the sheriff shot after a violent criminal has been brought down. #64 involves a tornado whipping through town. Like I said...I love this stuff. And, it's system free, so it's a simple matter to use it with whatever system you like.
WHAT DOESN'T WORK: A few of the seeds make too many assumptions, or place the PCs in peril without them being able to do anything about it. Now, if you have a group that doesn't mind being shoved a bit, that's not a huge deal, especially in a system like Savage Worlds that has bennies or adventure cards that can be doled out to ease the pain. Some of these involve PCs being scarred by whips or PCs being challenged to duels for the love of a woman.
CONCLUSION: Even if you hate the idea of random rolls dictating where the events of the game go, there's still 100 ideas to run with here in case you get stuck. Many of them are fairly common western tropes, but sometimes you don't THINK of that until you have a list in front of you...and there you go. Thumbs up.

17 months and suddenly won't sleep(16 Posts)
I feel a bit daft as I have 6dc and had a few sleep issues due to 1 dc have sn but I'm so so tired and feel like I have no clue anymore. My youngest is 17 months old.
Up until recently he was a good sleeper and only woke during the night from being 6 months if teething or unwell. He was diagnosed with having toddler diarrhea 3 weeks ago after having it recurrently for 3 weeks he also had croup for the second time. Obviously he felt rubbish and there was quite a few nights where I sat up with him trying to comfort him through it all.
Currently he is having a spell of having normal nappies and the croup has all but gone with just a slight cough now and again but I'm having major problems getting him to sleep at night.
His naps vary day to day and I've put this down to his lack of sleeping at night. He will go up at bedtime happily but he wakes anytime between 11pm and 3am then is either awake until after 6am when I have to be up with my other dcs or he will fall asleep as long as he is lying next to me in my bed or sometimes him led on sofa and me sat next to him. I can't sleep with him my bed as he wriggles and kicks to much I have tried but I end up in awkward positions and end up in really bad pain in my back the next day. When ever I try to move him back to his cot he wakes up no matter how long I leave him and will scream until I put him in bed with me or I take him downstairs so he doesn't wake the others up. When he wakes up there never seems to be a reason his nappies are clean and dry he refuses a bottle and dummy and just seems to throw tantrums until he is sure he is with me and I'm not going anywhere he will sometimes then take a bottle or just fall asleep. If I then try and move him back to his cot he wakes up and screams and hits out again.
I've tried lying him back down and rubbing his back but he just gets so mad and screams louder and I have tried leaving him for up to 5 minutes and going back into him but he just doesn't work and he ends up walking the others up.
I really don't know what to do and would be grateful for any advice anyone may have.
No advice I'm afraid but handholding! Going through the exact same with my dd who is 15 months! She goes to bed fine at 7.30 but wakes numerous times from 11pm until I get fed up of her whinging and bring dd to bed with me in case she wakes the other kids. It's that bad that dp now sleeps downstairs so she can come in with me but even then she is awake for hours switching between trying to play and chatter to screaming until she eventually settles with a bottle around 4am and like you we have to be up with the others for school/work etc... soooo bloody tired. Feel your pain op!
Hoping someone comes along soon with some advice in the meantime I'm on my 3rd cup of coffee this morning x
Thank you I've just got back from school and a shop run and feel like I could just drop ds4 (the zombie maker) is wide awake and very grumpy was hoping he would fall asleep in the buggy but no such luck. He gets so bad tempered ands it's obvious he's tired but he just won't go to sleep. I don't even know how many coffees I've had I lost count at half 5 this morning .
Leap 10! Have a look at wonder weeks x
Thank you ! Just found the app on Google play and going to order the book on Kindle sonic can read it on my phone x
Oh bless you :-( dd goes down for a nap around late morning and has a good hour and half she no longer has two just the one long one. She has it on the sofa as well which is really bad as know we should put her to bed for her nap but she wouldn't go if we tried to get her to nap upstairs!
She was awful yesterday whinged all. Loopy day because she was tiered. Not been too bad so far today fingers crossed!
What's a leap emz1989? X
I've let ds4 have a nap in the buggy he fell asleep when we went to pick up dd2 from nursery too worried if I move him he will wake up in a worse mood :/
Leap 10 is a section in a book called the wonder years I've put it on my phone through the kindle app and they have an app on Google play and the iPhone app store trying to read bits of it but dd2 wants to play fairies lol
Aw bless her :-) and god yes don't move him lol, when dd falls asleep in her pushchair I sometimes wheel her round the back and leave her outside (patio door) for fear of waking her up bumping her up the door steps lol
Meant to say thank you re leaps am downloading now :-)
He doesn't mind step bumps been really lucky today in that he stayed asleep when we got back normally he wakes up as soon as we get in and screams out. Hoping if he has a decent nap it means he won't be as grumpy and it will lead to a better nights sleep.
Just wondering how your getting on? We've had a slight improvement last 2 nights! She's gone down 8pm and only had to go in at 10.30 for 15 mins and 3.30 for half hour and then back down until 6.30. Hoping something has improved for you too x
Aww that's brilliant for you and your dd. Ds4 df staying for a few nights and dealing with him during night at minute so I'm getting some sleep. His naps have gotten better and his df says he put a bottle in cot next to ds4 and after he started stirring ds grabbed bottle and went straight back to sleep so now wondering if he's getting enough fluids during day think it's going to take a few days of seeing how this goes and if it's same every night then trying to get him to drink more during day. X
Ooh fingers crossed! It would be lovely to be something so simple, I'm actually beginning to think dd issue is teething (hoping) she has been dribbling like a trooper for the last few days!
So glad your getting some extra sleep! Feels good doesn't it lol x
I can honestly say nothing has ever felt as good. It could be teething the teething granules are good but a pain to get into the mouth of a wriggly baby but the ambusol liquid it good and lasts for ages if your dad is definitely teething. X
Shall have a look into those, have been giving calpol but interested to try something alternative. Thank you :-) x
No problem dc2 was really bad with teething and ambisol was the only thing that worked and youngest 2 I could only get granules in their mouth x

The dangers of backflow – solutions for public safety
If the proper precautionary measures are not taken, backflow can pose a serious threat to public health. There are numerous documented cases of contaminants invading the public drinking water through cross connection/backflow problems, causing illness, diseases, and even death.
Mechanical backflow prevention devices and assemblies offer the best protection against cross connection hazards, and are now required by law. Standards have been established regarding the function, manufacturing, installation, testing, and maintenance of backflow prevention devices and assemblies.
Part one: definitions
Backflow is the undesirable reversal of the flow of water or a mixture of water and other liquids, gases, or other substances into the distribution pipes of the potable water supply. There are two ways for backflow to occur. The first way that backflow can occur is back siphonage. Back siphonage is the reversal of water flow due to a drop in the water pressure on the supply side. The most common cause of back siphonage is a water main break. (See illustration and observe the garden hose cross connection.) Other back siphonage conditions exist when there is a negative pressure in the supply piping, allowing downstream substances to be siphoned into the potable water supply. Undersized pipes and high withdrawal rates can create vacuums, which contribute to the occurrence of back siphonage.
The second cause of backflow is backpressure. What is backpressure? It is when the pressure in the downstream piping rises above the supply pressure of the system, allowing downstream substances to be pushed into the potable water supply. Some common causes of backpressure include thermal expansion, pump systems and elevated tanks. The type of occupancy of the premises, the design and construction of the system, and the manner in which it is used are major influences on the possible incidence of backflow. Consequently, the degree of the hazard to which persons may be exposed varies from discomfort and minor illness to fatal, if the backflow of contaminants into the potable water system is not completely prevented. Due to the many variables in systems, devices of different performance characteristics are needed, each tailored to the system and its protection needs
Understanding cross connections
Prior to listing which industries are most commonly affected by backflow or examining in detail specific legendary cases of backflow, we must first understand thoroughly the concept of what a cross connection is.
By-pass arrangements, jumper connections, removable sections, swivel or change-over devices and other temporary or permanent devices through which or because of which backflow can occur are considered to be cross connections. There is a risk to public health if there is a cross connection between your water supply and a contaminated source. Cross connections can occur in a number of situations. A few examples of cross connections where a backflow incident could occur are:
- Metal processing or chemical plants, where metals in solution or chemicals used for production can come into contact with the water supply.
- Commercial or residential gardening, where chemical injectors, irrigation systems and garden hoses are connected to the water supply.
- When a hose is left running in a planter or a container with mixed chemicals such as fertilizers or pesticides.
- Car wash facilities, where a connection between the scrubber and rinse cycle pipe allows recycled water into the public drinking water supply.
By far, the most common cross connection arrangement involves the use of a garden hose. Cross connections occur at home just as much as they do in industry. Through increased public awareness programs and education, all of us need to be more careful on how we use our garden hoses. Never submerge garden hoses in swimming pools, chemicals, and car radiators and do not connect them to aspirators.
A number of different industries pose a potential risk to public health through a cross connection. Examples of some of these industries include:
- Chemical Plants
- Insect/Pest Control Businesses
- Floral/Garden Nurseries
- Golf Courses
- RV Parks
- Metal Processing Plants
- Paint Manufacturers
- Laundromats
- Naval Bases and Shipyards
- Car Washes
- Mortuaries
- Agricultural/Fertilizer/Pesticide Facilities
- Petrochemical Plants
- Dairy and Food Processing Plants
Part two: case histories
Definite proof of the potential menace to public health caused by backflow is borne out by case histories of actual occurrences. Some of the more prevalent diseases, illnesses and outbreaks that have been caused over the years by the incidence of backflow include:
1800-1940 – Typhoid, dysentery and amoebiasis
1900 – Infectious hepatitis
1976 – Legionnaire's disease (Philadelphia)
1985 – Salmonella outbreak affecting 100,000 people in the Chicago area.
Public health officials have long been aware of the impact that cross connections and accidental backflow play as a threat to the public health. Because plumbing defects are so frequent and the opportunity for contaminants to invade the public drinking water through cross connections are so general, enteric infections caused by drinking water may occur at most any location and at any time.
The following documented cases of cross connection/backflow problems illustrate and emphasize how actual cross connections have compromised the water quality and the public health in the United States.
Case #1: burned in the shower
A resident of a small town in Alabama jumped in the shower at 5 a.m. one morning in October 1986, and when he got out his body was covered with tiny blisters. "The more I rubbed it, the worse it got", the 60-year-old resident said. "It looked like someone took a blow torch and singed me."
He and several other residents received medical treatment at the emergency room of the local hospital after the water system was contaminated with sodium hydroxide, a strong caustic solution.
Other residents claimed that, "It (the water) bubbled up and looked like Alka Seltzer. I stuck my hand under the faucet and some blisters came up". One neighbor's head was covered with blisters after she washed her hair and others complained of burned throats or mouths after drinking the water.
The incident began after an 8-inch water main that fed the town broke and was repaired. While repairing the water main, one workman suffered leg burns from a chemical in the water and required medical treatment. Measurements of the ph of the water were as high as 13 in some sections of the pipe.
Investigation into the cause of the problem led to a possible source of the contamination from a nearby chemical company that distributes chemicals such as sodium hydroxide. The sodium hydroxide is brought to the plant in liquid form in bulk tanker trucks and is transferred to a holding tank and then pumped into 55-gallon drums. When the water main broke, a truck driver was adding the water from the bottom of the tank truck instead of the top, and sodium hydroxide back-siphoned into the water main.
Case #2: human blood in the water system
Health Department officials cut off the water supply to a funeral home located in a large southern city after it was determined that human blood had contaminated the fresh water supply. The chief plumbing inspector had received a telephone call advising that blood was coming from drinking fountains within the building. Plumbing and county health department inspectors went to the scene and found evidence that the blood had been circulating in the water system within the building. They immediately ordered the building cut off from the water system at the meter. City water and plumbing officials said that they did not think that the blood contamination had spread beyond the building. However, inspectors were sent into the neighborhood to check for possible contamination.
Investigation revealed that the funeral home had been using a hydraulic aspirator to drain fluids from the bodies of human remains as part of the embalming process. The aspirator directly connected to the water supply system at a faucet outlet located on a sink in the preparation (embalming) room. Water flow through the aspirator created suction that was utilized to draw body fluids through a hose and needle attached to the suction side of the aspirator.
The contamination of the funeral home potable water supply was caused by a combination of low water pressure in conjunction with the simultaneous use of the aspirator. Instead of the body fluids flowing into the sanitary drain, they were drawn in the opposite direction into the potable water supply of the funeral home
Case #3: propane gas in the water mains
Hundreds of people were evacuated from their homes and businesses on an August afternoon in a town in Connecticut in 1982 as a result of propane entering the city water supply system. Fires were reported in two homes and the town water supply was contaminated. One five-room residence was gutted by a blaze resulting from propane gas bubbling and hissing from a bathroom toilet. In another home, a washing machine explosion blew a woman against a wall. Residents throughout the area reported hissing and bubbling noises coming from washing machines, sinks and toilets. Faucets sputtered out small streams of water mixed with gas and residents in the area were asked to evacuate their homes.
This near-disaster occurred when the gas company initiated immediate repair procedures in one, 30,000-gallon capacity liquid propane tank. To start the repair, the tank was purged of residual propane by using water from one of two private fire hydrants located on the property. Water purging is the preferred method of purging over the use of carbon dioxide since it is more positive and will float out any sludge as well as any gas vapors. The purging consisted of hooking up a hose to one of the private fire hydrants located on the property and initiating flushing procedures.
Since the vapor pressure of the propane residual in the tank was 85 to 90 psi; and the water pressure was only 65 to 70 psi, propane gas backpressure backflowed into the water main. It was estimated that the gas flowed into the water mains for about 20 minutes and that about 2,000 cubic feet of gas was involved. This was approximately enough gas to fill one mile of an 8-inch water main.
Case #4: chlordane and heptachlor at the housing authority
The services to seventy-five apartments housing approximately three hundred people were contaminated with chlordane and heptachlor in a city in Pennsylvania in December 1980. The insecticides entered the water supply system while an exterminating company was applying them as a preventative measure against termites. While the pesticide contractor was mixing the chemicals in a tank truck with water from a garden hose coming from one of the apartments, a workman was cutting into a 6-inch main line to install a gate valve. The end of the garden hose was submerged in the tank containing the pesticides, and at the same time, the water to the area was shut off and the lines were being drained prior to the installation of the gate valve. When the workman cut the 6-inch line, water started to drain out of the cut, thereby setting up a back-siphonage condition. As a result, the chemicals were siphoned out of the truck, through the garden hose, and into the system, contaminating the seventy-five apartments. Repeated efforts to clean and flush the lines were not satisfactory and it was finally decided to replace the water line and all the plumbing that was affected. There were no reports of illness, but residents of the housing authority were told not to use any tap water for any purpose and they were given water that was trucked into the area by volunteer fire department personnel. They were without their normal water supply for 27 days.
Case #5: heating system anti-freeze into potable water
Bangor Maine Water Department employees discovered poisonous anti-freeze in a homeowner's heating system and water supply in November 1981. The incident occurred when they shut off the service line to the home to make repairs. With the flow of water to the house cut off, pressure in the lines in the house dropped and the anti-freeze, placed in the heating system to prevent freeze-up of an unused hot water heating system, drained out of the heating system into house water lines, and flowed out to the street. If it had not been noticed, it would have entered the homeowner's drinking water when the water pressure was restored.
Part three: solutions
Fire protection systems must be considered as non-potable systems due to the poor quality of water often found in them. Listed below are several concerns the building owner and water purveyor should have with these systems.
- The growth of offensive microorganisms, which can create taste and odor problems.
- The leaching of metals such as zinc, cadmium, iron, copper, or lead into the water.
- The addition of corrosion inhibitors, antifreeze, or other chemicals to protect systems.
- Dry systems containing compressed air or nitrogen.
- Systems which are constructed with unapproved or non-potable water piping or materials.
- A loss of pressure on the potable water supply main, or an increase in pressure on the consumer's system, which allows water from these systems to enter the potable supply.
If backflow from these systems should occur, the hazards will vary from a low health hazard or aesthetic concern to a high health hazard.
The purveyor may require a detector meter on the system to detect any unauthorized use or leakage within the system. This is usually accomplished using a double check detector assembly, or reduced pressure detector assembly, depending on the degree of hazard determined by the purveyor. A single detector check or single check valve is not considered an approved backflow preventer.
Most fire protection systems will have a fire department pumper connection. In these cases, the pumper connection must be installed downstream of the backflow prevention assembly.
All fire protection systems that are connected to the water purveyor's potable water system, either directly or indirectly on the property side of a potable water service, should be isolated with an approved backflow prevention assembly. The level of backflow protection should be commensurate with the degree of hazard.
Degree of hazard
There are two factors to consider when determinating which method of controlling cross connections should be selected. One factor is the type of cross connection involved: i.e., a direct type or an indirect type. The other factor is the degree of hazard in other words, how serious a threat to public well-being is a particular material? Degree of hazard may be that amount of threat to the health and well-being of the public. It may be classified into three categories: lethal hazard, contaminant (high) hazard, pollutant (low) hazard.
- Lethal hazard is the highest degree we know. Substances such as radioactive material and raw untreated sewage are in this class.
- Contaminant hazard is the next highest degree. It involves an impairment of the quality of the water to an extent that creates a danger to public health through serious illness or death. Materials such as chemicals and industrial fluids, which are poisonous, fall into this category.
- Pollutant hazard is a substance that would be objectionable in a water system, but not necessarily hazardous to health. Examples of this would be edible food products, untreated steam and compressed air.
Protective methods and assemblies
Mechanical backflow prevention devices and assemblies offer the best protection against cross connection hazards, and are now required by law. Per the Illinois plumbing code:
"All premises intended for human habitation or occupancy shall be provided with a potable water supply. The potable water supply shall not be connected to non-potable water and shall be protected from backflow and back siphonage".
Approval agencies, representing many diverse geographical areas and levels of government, have established performance criteria regarding the function, manufacturing, installation, testing, and maintenance of backflow prevention devices and assemblies.
The five recognized methods/assemblies for protecting against cross connection hazards are:
- Air gap may be used as protection for either type of cross connection, direct or indirect type, and for any degree of hazard.
- Atmospheric vacuum breaker may be used as protection for indirect type cross connections only, and for any degree of hazard. This unit must be installed on the discharge side of the last control valve on a system so that it will not be subject to backpressures.
- Pressure vacuum breaker may be used as protection for indirect type cross connections only, and for any degree of hazard. This unit must be installed so that it will not be subject to backpressure, but may be installed subject to continuous supply line pressures.
- Double check valve assembly may be used as protection for either type of cross connection, but it is limited for use in pollutant hazard situations.
- Reduced pressure principle backflow prevention assembly may be used as protection for either type of cross connection and it may be used in contaminant or pollutant hazard situations.
It is beyond the scope of this article to describe the operation of each of the five types of backflow prevention devices above. Furthermore, the proper selection of the correct backflow prevention device is a complex process involving numerous variables. Of tremendous importance, however, is the need to select a qualified expert contractor, properly licensed, insured, and certified in cross connection control device inspections (CCCDI). Scrutinizing your contractor's safety performance record and checking their references are proven methods of ensuring a quality installation that will stand the test of time.
Furthermore, along with building ownership comes certain responsibilities and civic duties. Not only is it the law to have backflow prevention devices installed in your building, the law requires that these devices be tested and certified at least once per year (Illinois Environmental Protection Agency) by an approved inspector. Since most backflow prevention devices can be tested and certified for the nominal fee of just one or two hundred dollars, it makes no rational sense for a building owner to skip the annual test for economic reasons. Building owners are advised to carefully consider the costs of defending a costly negligence lawsuit in the event of a backflow prevention device failure. In this case, compliance with the law is a very small price to pay given the alternative.

Its December – that time of year when gyms start offering a special and people start thinking about getting healthier. Before you join a gym, here are a few things you should consider.
Application Fee, Monthly Fee, Additional Fees
How much will it cost to join (application fee)? Typically some gyms have application fees to process the paperwork. I have seen these range from $10-$100. Fortunately many gyms will waive the fees or greatly reduce them this month and next month. Even if they are not having a special, ask if this can be waived. Ultimately they want your money monthly.
How much is the monthly fee? The amount you have to pay per month to be a member. Is it taxed or not? Is the fee locked in for the length you are a member? Most gyms now insist from either deducting from a debit card or charging to a credit card.
Are there any additional fees? Locker fees, towel fees, yearly maintenance/service fees, classes that require extra money, tanning, massage beds, etc. The gym may have tons of options – but will you be paying for each one separately? Try to get a list of these in writing so you will know in case you join the gym.
Length of Contract
My current gym requires a 3 year contract. Many other gyms in the area are month-to-month. Find this out before signing. If you plan to stay where you are (both home and work), a 3 year contract could be worth it. If you might be moving soon (another part of town or another city), try for a month to month gym.
Distance/Travel Time From Your House & Work
How far is the gym from your house? from your office? How long (time-wise) would it take to get there at the time(s) you would normally be going? The more convenient the gym is, the more often you will go. In the past, I tried to find a gym between my house and my office so I would be going past it twice each day.
Group Fitness Classes Offered
Does the gym offer group fitness classes? Are these included in your fee or extra? Get a schedule. Mark off the ones that don't fit with your schedule. How many are left? Do they look intriguing to you? Ask how often they add more classes to the schedule. One thing I have been disappointed with in my gym is that they haven't added more group fitness classes. The gym is now 2 years old and the classes (that come with your membership) are 90% the same as when they opened.
Locker Rooms
How big are the locker rooms? Are they clean? Do they provide locks or do you bring your own? Do they have showers? Amenities? My current gym has a VIP locker room (extra) where I have my own locker with my own code and I can store things. Is that an option? If you are going to be showering at the gym and then heading to work, the locker room is a very important place for you.
Not just the locker rooms, but how clean is the gym as a whole? Newer gyms tend to be cleaner. Are there machines broken and waiting on maintenance? Do people wipe the equipment down? Before my current gym I was a member at Planet Fitness. That place was CLEAN! Everytime I went someone was cleaning something – it was constant.
How Crowded Is it
Pick a couple of days during the week when you would normally go and visit. How crowded is the parking lot (can you get a space)? How crowded are the classes? Is there plenty of equipment? Can you get a locker? Are there time limits on equipment because of overcrowding?
What is Their Target Clientele
Some gyms are more "pickup" places, some cater to heavy lifters, others to families. It is important you feel comfortable at whatever gym you join. Some even now have women-only areas. Pay close attention when getting a tour of the gym. Can you SEE yourself working out here? Does the atmosphere feel friendly and comfortable?
Daycare/Options for Kids
While I don't have kids, my gym is known for being family friendly. I have heard only raves about their childcare and kids activities. If you have kids (and might need to bring them with you to the gym), this is extremely important. Is childcare extra or included? Our members get 2 free hours per day of childcare so they can work out.
Your Budget & Schedule
Finally, make sure that any gym you join is in your budget (for the length of the contract) and works with your schedule (what are their hours). Joining a nice pretty gym won't help you if it is too far for you to drive on a regular basis. First timer joining a gym? You might try to find something month-to-month to make sure you will like the atmosphere in general. If you can find a friend to join with you – even better.Things To Consider When Joining a Gym. #FitFluential Click To Tweet

Goats Enlisted in the Effort to Prepare for Spring & Summer Fires!
Firefighters say that includes the following tips:
*People need to have defensible space around their homes *Be aware of your surroundings *Have a plan. You need to know what to do when fire strikes.
*Have a kit for three days worth of supplies
RELATED: Will the Drought Impact Water-Dropping Fire Choppers?
And, when it comes to the drought's impact on potential fires, fire behavior analyst Brendan Ripley says, "It is extremely serious mainly from the standpoint when you look at the conditions from the long-term drought."
The dry grassy conditions which bring us to what to do about cutting yard. In a typical home we all know what to do, but if you have lots of acreage like the Ronald Reagan Library in Simi Valley goats might be the ticket! 1400 young goats were brought to the Presidential Library to eat away all of the grass and brush. Operators of the goat business say it should take about a week to 10 days to gobble up 14 acres.

Now that Selection Sunday has come and gone and the first-round matchups are set, it's time to figure out how to watch the March Madness college basketball tournament.
This year, more people than ever will look to stream the 67 games online. Whether you're hoping to watch with your Apple TV at home, or stream on your smartphone at work, here are your options to catch all the action starting with the play-in games Tuesday and Wednesday and ending with the championship game April 3.
If you have cable
CBS' March Madness Live app is one of the easiest ways to watch the games. This year, games will be shown on CBS, TNT, TBS, and truTV. If you have cable, you can watch the games with your cable login on mobile devices or on streaming devices like Roku, Chromecast, Apple TV, and Amazon Fire TV.
If you don't have cable, you're able to watch a three-hour preview before you have to login with cable credentials. However, there is an exception. You can watch all 24 games broadcast on CBS for free on the app, but only on mobile devices. If you want to stream on your Roku, Apple TV, or similar devices, you're out of luck. The March Madness app will also have access to clips, bracket details, and other stats and figures.
On desktops and laptops, the March Madness website will have a "boss button" in the upper right corner. One click replaces the game with a fake screenshot of a note-taking or PowerPoint-like app.
If you don't have cable
Don't have a cable contract? No worries, there are plenty of ways to watch March Madness online without cable. Here's a quick rundown of your options for a local CBS feed as well as the Turner-owned channels.
PlayStation Vue: PlayStation Vue is a good choice because it gives you access to Dallas' CBS-TV 11, TNT, truTV, and TBS. It's one of the only streaming services available that will allow you to watch all four networks. Vue is also one of the only services that offers a DVR option, so you can record the games you might miss. It's worth noting that Vue features mobile restrictions, so it might not be the best for watching away from home. The basic package will run you $39.99 a month and is available free to try for 7 days.
CBS All Access: CBS All Access is the standalone streaming service that will allow you access to all the games on CBS, as it provides a local feed in Dallas just like PlayStation Vue. You'll be able to watch with streaming and mobile devices, and you get a free 7-day trial here, too. This is your only other live streaming CBS option. On the plus side, it's a lot cheaper than Vue if you're just looking for CBS games. All Access is available starting at $5.99 a month.
Sling TV: The best option with Sling TV is the Sling TV Blue package. It's $25 a month for 40 channels, including TNT, TBS, and truTV. It also affords you three simultaneous streams. You could opt for the Sling TV Orange package and add the Comedy Extra add-on all for the same price but that would only allow a single stream. If you're using Amazon Fire TV you can also pay an additional $5 to gain access to a DVR, which will allow you to record the games and catch up later. And like with most streaming services, Sling TV offers the first week free.
DIRECTV NOW: DIRECTV NOW is the newest streaming service on the block from Dallas' own, AT&T. It doesn't have access to CBS, and you can't watch using Roku, but otherwise your streaming options are open, and the other necessary channels are available. The "Live a Little" package is $35 a month, and includes all the channels you need beyond CBS. This package includes 60 other channels, though unlike some of the other options, there is no DVR available. You can try it free for 7 days like the others.
Those are your options for watching March Madness online, whether you have cable or not. It's simple, and cheaper than a full-blown cable package.

I've been (attempting to, and mostly successful at) sleeping polyphasicly for the past month and a half or so. As a result, I find myself awake at hours such as this one, with too much time on my hands. But that's a good thing at this time since I'm (supposed to be) studying for my exams.
Thankfully, I only have one left; as opposed to the five I had last week. And as much as I enjoyed some of it, I can't say that I'm especially sad to see those classes and their readings come to an end. In fact, I'm very glad to see the end of my having to read some of the (post?) modern fiction – CoughRaymondCarverCough – that one class in particular required.
Don't get me wrong, I can appreciate what authors of that sort are doing. But I don't have to like it, do I? Give me something like Jerome's Three Men in a Boat, or Wodehouse's Damsel in Distress, or Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest or even, in a more recent vein, Willis's To Say Nothing of the Dog.
I suppose there's some deep psychological reason why all the books I mentioned are decidedly British in nature and more specifically, in some way or another, a comedy of manners.
Perhaps I'm a pretentious bastard? But I'm not going to venture a guess at it.
I'm sure I've mentioned at least some of those books before. But, oh well. They're that great.
Also, Christmas might be coming early this year. From Relevant:
That's fantastic. If you've never seen Arrested Development, find a way to do so. Without a doubt, the funniest show on television.
And that's all for now. Cheers.

ORANGE – Requiring an overflow room, 64 people representing two dozen Orange County cities spoke out against proposed bus service changes on Monday, and it appears the transportation authority will take at least some of their comments to heart.
Heart-wrenching testimonies came from disabled individuals who said route reductions would leave them with no other way to get around. Students, educators, transit advocates and Spanish-speaking housekeepers also voiced opposition during the Orange County Transportation Authority board's public hearing at the agency's headquarters, the final chance to provide input.
After listening to more than two hours of public speeches – on top of more than 800 comments received through four community meetings and other communications – OCTA CEO Darrell Johnson told the 17-member board the input "will not go unheeded."
"We will come back and I fully anticipate we will make some series of modifications still within the fiscal constraints that we are faced with," Johnson said.
Transit authority staff are expected to consider comments from the public outreach process and come up with a final 2016 Bus Service Plan for the board to possibly adopt in February.
OCTA deems that reallocating resources from lower routes to higher-demand areas is necessary to reverse declining ridership that has dropped from 69 million boardings in 2007 to 47 million in 2015. Officials say the new routes will add 1.6 million more boardings over the next three years.
The plan beefs up service in the central core of the county that makes up about 80 percent of total average daily boardings, but eliminates or cuts back routes in outlying areas, particularly South County.
San Clemente resident Mary Thomasson, who takes routes 191 and 193 to buy food, said the proposed elimination of those buses is a life or death matter.
"There is no way I can get up that hill on my wheelchair," she said about accessing other transit options. "I don't want to die. … I don't want to starve to death."
Speaking in Spanish, Carmen Eaberra said she represented Santa Ana residents who rely on routes 82 and 83 to get to Rancho Santa Margarita, where they work cleaning houses.
"We are worried you will cut the lines, because there are people who need the service because it is how we make our livelihood," Eaberra said.
Jane Reifer, spokeswoman for Transit Advocates of Orange County, a volunteer-run nonprofit that works to improve bus, rail, biking and walking in the county, pointed out that OCTA touted 92 percent of riders would benefit from more frequent or no change in service, but that out of that figure 75 percent would be unaffected.
Reifer added the organization was founded 15 years ago as the Orange County Bus Restructuring Task Force to oppose a bus route overhaul at the time from a radial to grid system that she says has led to more transfers for riders.
"We feel we are still living the legacy of a poor restructuring," Reifer said.
Gregory Winterbottom, who has served as a public member of the board for 21 years, said he's seen OCTA go through route overhauls four times and the crowd Monday was nothing new.
"It's unfortunate that we cannot provide the service that we really need to," he said, "but it's just too expensive."

For the Love of Dolly Reviews
January 23, 2010
This movie is all over the place. Funny, cringe worthy, heart breaking, and just plain over the top. Some of it's like a train wreck...but in a good way. You just can't turn away!
½ October 5, 2008
Superfandom can truly be frightening, but the always fabulous Dolly seems incredibly tolerant of these people who take their love for her just a little too far.
September 16, 2008
Most memorable quote? "Question. Do you have feathers?"
I love Dolly Parton, but not as much as these people. The fans went from sweet, like the guy who needlepoints dolly a present each year and uses her as inspiration, to creppy, with the girls tracking down dolly's friends traded in car and licking the seatbelts. It makes you understand why she closed down the fan club in 97. The end credits with the two men singing "Dear God" will bring you to tears...of laughter.
Most memorable quote? "Question. Do you have feathers?"
½ August 24, 2008
Very insightful, fun examination of obsessed Dolly Parton fans...
June 19, 2008
Worth a look, if only to satisfy your curiosity, because who knew which celeb will inspire such devotion.
A behind the scenes look at the Uber-fans of Dolly Parton. At times wince-inducing and others touching, the one thing that remains apparent is Dolly's gracious nature with her fans.
Worth a look, if only to satisfy your curiosity, because who knew which celeb will inspire such devotion.
½ February 19, 2008
A bizarre look at just how far fans will go to get to be close to their one and only... Dolly Parton. This documentary is a must see weather or not u like Dolly Parton or not. I never knew just how far fans of a celebrity would go until I saw this film. It follows a few set of people that truly believe she is a part of their family and wouldn't have it any other way. This film might be hard to find as I saw it on the Logo channel. But def keep in eye out for this great documentary.
September 15, 2007
I love Dolly too, but really?

Formating CD's with INCD software

I have a MSI CR52-M cd burner and everytime I put a cd in the burner it has to be formated before I can use it. In doing so I get an error message saying that the CD's are not compatiable or they are scratched.

(LAS VEGAS) — Police descended upon Las Vegas' Bellagio Resort & Casino Saturday night — and guests fled in panic from the property, flooding surrounding streets — amidst false reports of an "active shooter."
"Currently investigating burglary at @bellagio," the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department tweeted at 2:13 a.m. "Initial reports indicated there was an 'active shooter' which was false. NO injuries."
Currently investigating burglary at @bellagio. Initial reports indicated there was an "active shooter" which was false. NO injuries.
— LVMPD (@LVMPD) March 25, 2017
While there was no active shooter, a high-end watch store at the property was burglarized by armed suspects, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department's Lt. Carlos Hank told ABC News.
At no point were any firearms discharged, Lt. Hank said.
The Bellagio was on lockdown after the incident for about 30 minutes.
The store was not open at the time of the incident.
The suspects wore character masks, but Lt. Hank could not confirm the specifics of the mask. One eyewitness, though — a woman named Kira, who did not want her surname used — told ABC News she saw a man wearing a pig mask (below).
Lt. Hank said early Saturday morning that some people were detained, but it is unclear if the detained individuals are burglary suspects.
Police are continuing to search for suspects.

Heat Advisory Issued for Boise – History is Made
Even though temperatures have been well above 100 degrees for the past several days, now the National Weather Service has issued a heat advisory – this is what we should prepare for.
A heat advisory is to make the public aware that precautions need to be taken. Heat advisories are used to trigger actions and regulations such as no evictions, no turning off of power, charging outdoor work requirements and more.
What's so "funny" is during the hottest week of the year (and almost on record), our building's air conditioning has been out. I'm currently sitting in a studio with three fans running, in the dark and hoping the inside temps drop from almost 90 degrees. Someone send help!
The National Weather Service has put out an advisory that temperatures are likely to soar above 100 over the next two or three days in Boise with overnight lows in the 70's. The last time we hit 103 on July 8th was 1968. If we are over that by even a degree, we will have a new record.
Oh yay, the year of breaking records. Between Snowmageddon 2017 and now the Boise Melt 2017 (yes, I just made that up), we should all just stay indoors.
There are ways to stay cool and keep your pets cool even your home doesn't have air, your work is almost 90 degrees or you just can't afford to keep that air on all day every day. We get it. Click the buttons of the resource you're looking for.

"Voters should elect me because it is time to demand more of our local government — more accountability, more responsibility and more results."
What do you think is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?
"Beginning with the development initiative along the Southwest Waterfront and H Street, moving to a chronically under-performing public school system and ending with a police department that would rather ignore criminals than catch them, the list of challenges facing Ward 6 is innumerable. However, the most urgent problem facing my community is a lack of a voice in how the city will confront these challenges. Ward 6 deserves a councilman who will ensure that development works for them, provide access to city services and is willing to guarantee a good education for their children and safety on our streets."

Art of weaving is kept alive
Generations came together two weeks ago to learn about traditional Maori weaving with master weaver Tamara Jane Rikiti.
The workshop was made possible by the Creative Communities Scheme and Tamara Jane said the involvement of the younger generation was great, because this was the way to pass on knowledge and keep the traditional arts alive.
Over the course of the two days, students were given an introduction to the art of taniko - weaving, learning how to get the fibre from flax using a mussel shell, casting on and off, and mastering the basic skills of weaving.
The success of the workshop, which attracted about 20 people at various stages, has meant it will continue each Wednesday.
The aim is to create a traditional korowai, or cloak, using traditional materials which will be coloured with dye from tree bark.

Lostprophets singer's crimes 'mega lolz'
The parents of Ian Watkins say they're utterly devastated by his sexual offending, as it's revealed the Lostprophets singer dismissed his abuse of children as ''mega lolz''.
Watkins' step-father John Davies, 53, told the Daily Mail of his and his 60-year-old wife Elaine's anger at the despicable actions of the rockstar.
The pair were too distressed to go to court to see him sentenced and have instead focused their sympathy on his victims.
"I could cheerfully spend an hour knocking him around a cell," Davies said.
"There are things I may well want to say to him.
"These offences are so horrific. They are the most heinous crimes. Every one of us is completely and utterly devastated."
He feared Watkins will be remembered as a "sort of Jimmy Savile character", saying he was being targeted in prison because of his fame.
Elaine was seriously unwell following a kidney transplant and had had her strong bond with Watkins destroyed.
It has also been revealed that Watkins phoned a friend from prison after pleading guilty last month and described his offending as "mega lolz" - a phrase used by his band the Lostprophets when something should be mocked by "laughing out loud".
He said his crimes were "not that bad", adding: "I don't know what everyone is getting so freaked out about."
He also tried to use his fame to reduce his sentence, claiming he was "bombarded with messages from fans trying to hit on him".
Watkins has now been disowned by his brother, Daniel.
"When I was in high school it was awesome. I thought all the attention was great.
"I was naive. I don't want to be known as the brother of Ian Watkins."
