We will be archiving our blog and moving to a our new website!
A professional association for Victorian Youth Workers
We will be archiving our blog and moving to a our new website!
25 & 26 August 2016
Now open for Registrations!
YSAS, with the Centre for Youth AOD Practice Development and YoDAA are excited to invite you to the annual Australian Youth AOD Conference.
This year the theme is "Every Experience Matters".
Practitioners supporting young people create opportunities for positive development, and understand the influence of structural conditions on the lives of their clients.
The Conference will explore these structural influences (day 1), and then provide the participants with the opportunity to develop new skills and knowledge for their work with young people (day 2).
Check out the program!
Half-price tickets!
The Conference has been subsidised by the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS Victoria), and the Centre for Youth AOD Practice Development, so ticket prices are half of last year's. There are also special student prices.
For further information do not hesitate to contact Karina Belloti or Jo Driscoll on 03 9415 8881.
We look forward to seeing you there!
The team at Australian Youth AOD Conference 2016
Self-harm is common in young people, with 17% of adolescents (10-17) and 13% of young adults (18-24) reporting that they have engaged in deliberate self-harm. This behaviour can be difficult for schools to manage and causes distress amongst staff, students and families.
This webinar is focused on how technology can be harnessed to provide best practice mental health and wellbeing care in the youth sector.
It will touch on the four areas that are offered in the Certificate in Young People's Mental Health and Technology:

BreakThrough Ice Education for Families is a program that provides free educational sessions for families of people who use ice. These sessions are scheduled across Victoria and registrations are now open for Warrnambool, Horsham, Geelong, Altona and Carnegie.
BreakThrough Ice Education for Families is supported by the State Government through itsIce Action Plan and was developed by Turning Point, The Bouverie Centre and SHARC – Self Help Addiction Resource Centre.
BreakThrough can help Victorians recognise when a family member has a problem with ice and it can also help them develop skills to support their loved one, themselves and other impacted family members. BreakThrough has had outstanding success reaching over 1,000 Victorians concerned about their loved ones' ice use.
Feedback from attendees has been overwhelmingly positive:
Participants have come from all walks of life have attended. We have had parents, siblings, aunts and uncles, grandparents and concerned friends attend. What are families saying about BreakThrough?
"I have had many years' experience of dealing with my younger brother's drug use. I found BreakThrough informative and useful. I am able to take away new tools to educate myself and my family."
"The facilitator was caring and knowledgeable and the sense of hope provided was very welcome."
Registrations are now open for the following sessions:
*The Carnegie session runs as 2 x 2 hour sessions. Participants need to attend both sessions.
To register please go to: www.turningpoint.org.au/education/breakthrough or telephone 8413 8700.
For more information on the BreakThrough program, please contact Dean Rogut email@example.com
"'The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle."
These famous words from Steve Jobs have profoundly influenced modern attitudes towards work. It is the subject our next Young Workers Centre event: a discussion on the 'Do What You Love' Lie.
Dr Miya Tokumnitsu, author of Do What You Love (and Other Lies About Success and Happiness), reckons we've got it all wrong.
Join Miya, the team from the Young Workers Centre and the John Cain Foundation as we have a drink and get to the bottom of how we combine work and love – or if we even should!
This is a joint event by the Young Workers Centre and the John Cain Foundation, with sponsorship from Slater + Gordon.
Tues May 31, 2016 at 6pm – 7:30pm
Meeting Room 1, Trades Hall
The Youth on the Agenda website is now live at www.youthontheagenda.org.au! We're still making a few minor tweaks here and there but please let me know if you find any bugs.

This two-day workshop will explore the latest evidence about Early Intervention for Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) in young people. We now know that structured clinical care and simpler treatments have been demonstrated to be almost as effective as specialized treatments for BPD and this workshop will explore some of the principles underpinning successful models.
The workshop will specifically review the HYPE program, an evidence-based early intervention service for BPD that was developed in 2000 in Australia. It is a time-limited, integrated, team-based approach that is based on Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT).

"Saying the cocaine and guns were deadly, Kevin Trapp, an assistant county prosecutor, recommended an eight-year prison term. '
Not deadly enough for the judge to give him eight years. Could this indicate that now there is a level of acceptance toward drugs and guns in the hands of felons?

Most of Youngstown will vote for Hillary and accept what she will give in return. NOTHING ! The Clintons past performance toward Youngstown speaks volumes as what can be expected to materialize.

A couple of good boys corrupted by the gun that gave them the power to kill. The compassion of the man they killed shows that you can never do enough for some people as they will always want more. Now he has no more to give as they took his life. These two killers deserve no more compassion and if justice was to be serve both need the death penalty or to be incarcerated for life with no chance of parole.

The rioters are upset that a black man has been killed by the police. They don't care about the circumstances that led to his death. The riots will be allowed to run their course. There is no easy solution for preventing riots when a death occurs.

The good news is that Shun Moreland gave up his guns. The bad news is his concurrent sentence. He'll never spend the full 41⁄2 years in prison and will be out in much less time. The old landscape will not have changed much and his old contacts will resupply him with guns and drugs to start back up where he left off.

"The black man whose killing by police touched off rioting in Milwaukee was shot by a black officer after turning toward him with a gun in his hand "
Worship the gun, show it in pride and get a predictable response from the police. The end result was death to the young man holding the gun.
Allow life to flourish by taking the guns off the streets!

Hillary is bizarre but her supporters don't care.

The young man who was killed was a victim of his own gun. Showing that gun to the policeman brought a response that cost him his life. Removing the guns from the streets would eliminate many deaths yearly.
LET'S END THE CARNAGE AND TAKE ALL OF THE GUNS OFF THE STREETS! We can all live without them.

Perception and the perception of racism. Being armed and fleeing a traffic stop is not looked upon as a crime that warrants being shot and killed for by the residents. Their perception of being shot in such a fashion is viewed as racism. Punishment for doing so was a riot. The goal of a riot is twofold. One is punishment and the other is to force enforcement to relax. With the riots fresh in memory the next traffic stop may go down differently.

The B5-Lite is here – with industry-leading price and performance
Your next low-cost, high-throughput backhaul radio kit is now available! Using our TDMA protocol and 802.11ac technology, Mimosa's new B5-Lite radio delivers a solid 750+ Mbps of throughput at a cost that's less than 40¢ per Mbps.
Designed to be powerful, affordable and easy to install, the B5-Lite's 2x2:2 radio features an integrated 20 dBi antenna, and is a great option for locations that do not require collocation, while offering the same low 2+ms latency as our higher-powered B5 and B5c radios.
While the B5 and B5c still provide the highest throughput and resiliency available on the market, the B5-Lite offers many of the same impressive features in a smaller package – Auto Everything, RF efficiencies, high throughput and an operating frequency covering the 4.9 GHz public safety band all the way up to 6200 MHz.
So, what's the difference? The B5-Lite is… well, lighter – coming in at just 1.6 lbs – and gives you two radios for a quick link right out of the box. For shorter links (typically less than 5 miles) and simple building-to-building connectivity, the B5-Lite offers amazing value for money.
Here's what one of our early adopters had to say about the B5-Lite: "I'm really impressed with the B5-Lite. It has the best service possible with amazing reliability and speed! The performance is truly mind-blowing!" - Kent Urwiller, President of Prairie Hills Wireless LLC

WASHINGTON, April 2 (UPI) -- Most U.S. consumers don't know they can report prescription drug side effects to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, a survey said.
The national poll by the Consumer Reports National Research Center found that among consumers who have ever taken a prescription drug, 16 percent had experienced a serious drug side effect at some time in their lives. A serious drug side effect is described by the FDA as a reaction that led them to visit a doctor or hospital, was life-threatening or caused a significant disability or incapacity.
However, only 35 percent of consumers polled were aware that serious side effects can be reported to the FDA. Seventy-nine percent said they would report drug side effects to their doctor, 16 percent would tell their pharmacist and 7 percent would file a report with the FDA.
"Doctors and healthcare professionals play an important role in drug safety when they report their patients' adverse reactions to the FDA," Liz Foley of Consumers Union said in a statement. "But we're aware of the demands on their time, and we think consumers should know there is a resource available at the FDA to track their severe drug reactions."

What Are Rock's Most Shocking Album Covers?
Being proudly provocative has always been part of rock 'n' roll — from the music's earliest days, when simply shaking one's hips on television was enough to send middle-aged Americans into a righteous lather, the formula for some of the best rock has been one part rhythm, one part volume, and one part shock.
This has also been true for album covers, which some of rock's most forward-thinking performers have used as a platform to shock, disturb, annoy, and generate thought-provoking conversation (although not necessarily in that order). It's a long rock 'n' roll tradition — one celebrated with a new list over at Ultimate Classic Rock.
Beastie Boys Release Remix EP for 'Don't Play No Game That I Can't Win' [AUDIO]
The Beastie Boys' new single, 'Don't Play No Game That I Can't Win,' already had a nifty, Spike Jonze-directed video to its name — but the Beasties aren't stopping there.
The venerable rap trio has just released an EP that backs the song's single edit (featuring an appearance by Santigold) with five remixes and an a cappella version that invites fans to add their own spin to the track.
Velvet Revolver Album with Corey Taylor of Slipknot Killed by Slash
They have an all-star lineup and a pair of top five albums to their credit, so what's keeping Velvet Revolver from soldiering on without departed vocalist Scott Weiland?
According to drummer Matt Sorum, the band has tried — even going so far as to record an entire album's worth of new material with Slipknot/Stone Sour singer Corey Taylor. But it hasn't panned out — so far, anyway.
Eric Clapton and Wynton Marsalis to Release Live CD/DVD
Since delving into the blues with 1994′s 'From the Cradle,' Eric Clapton has more or less divided his time between albums of original material and projects that pay tribute to his influences.
Now he's looking back to the past again — and he isn't alone.
Pablo Dylan, Bob Dylan's Teenage Grandson, Is a Rapper – Hear His First Single
If you remember when Bob Dylan's son Jakob started the Wallflowers, prepare to feel really old, because Bob's grandson Pablo has just released his musical debut — and he's a rapper.
That's right, world — say hello to 15-year-old Pablo Dylan, who lists Eminem as a major influence and calls his famous grandfather "the Jay-Z of his time." Pablo recently released his first mixtape, '10 Minutes,' and if it doesn't exactly sound like anything else in the Dylan family catalog, he expresses nothing but appreciation for its legacy.
Paul McCartney and Nancy Shevell Plan Intimate Wedding
His last marriage didn't work out so well, but give Paul McCartney credit for perseverance: he's getting ready to walk down the aisle again — and soon.
The UK's Daily Telegraph reports that McCartney's engagement to Nancy Shevell, which took place in May, will lead to a low-key London wedding in the near future, followed by a trip to New York for the newlyweds. As a friend of McCartney's tells the paper, "Paul loves Nancy very much, but does not want a big wedding."
Nearly Half of New Jersey Residents Would Vote Bruce Springsteen for Governor
Does New Jersey need a governor, or a Boss? According to a recent poll, many voters think the answer is both.
With New Jersey Governor Chris Christie's poll numbers dropping, an organization named Public Policy Polling decided to see what would happen if Bruce Springsteen ran against Christie for the office — and found that he'd enter with nearly half the popular vote.
Bob Seger Reveals Fall Tour Plans
After 50 years of rocking, Bob Seger is ready to retire from the road — but he has a few things he wants to take care of first.
That list includes a run of October shows that will take Seger and crew into New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Tampa, Orlando, Dallas, Denver, and Vancouver. Specific dates for the shows — and additional stops — will be announced later.
After Eight-Year Break, Blink-182 Premieres New Single, 'Up All Night'
After an eight-year hiatus, Blink-182 are coming back with another album — and fans will be able to get their first taste of the new music Friday.
The band will debut its new single, 'Up All Night,' on Los Angeles' KROQ at 7:30 a.m., but if you aren't within reach of the station's signal, don't fret: the track, which drummer Travis Barker has described as "heavy," will also be available on the band's website.
Sebastian Bach and Nuno Bettencourt Film 'Rock of Ages' Movie Scene
Take a bunch of nuns, a few bikers, the former lead singer of Skid Row, and Extreme's guitarist, and what do you have?
Just another day on the set of 'Rock of Ages.'
Former Queens of the Stone Age Bassist Nick Oliveri Arrested After SWAT Standoff
Bassist Nick Oliveri has been keeping busy lately — and not necessarily in a good way.
The former Queens of the Stone Age member, who recently rejoined his former bandmates in Kyuss for a reunion tour under the moniker Kyuss Lives!, found himself on the wrong end of a standoff with a Los Angeles SWAT team earlier this week, after a neighbor called the police to report a domestic disturbance.
New Chickenfoot Album Scheduled for September 27 [VIDEO]
Confirming bassist Michael Anthony's earlier report that work on the album was finished, Chickenfoot's second studio set has been scheduled for a September 27 release.
The veteran supergroup — made up of Anthony, vocalist Sammy Hagar, guitarist Joe Satriani, and drummer Chad Smith — worked with producer Mike Fraser for the sessions, which produced songs such as 'Last Temptation,' 'Something's Gone Wrong,' 'Astral Years,' and the lead single, 'Bigfoot.'

Denise Ryan: Gabrielle Bernstein wants to talk about your soul. Maybe even to save it. She wears five-inch heels, an electric-blue, strapless silk dress and one priceless accessory: a glow so radiant it is almost incandescent.
On a rainy Vancouver night, several hundred young women – and one man – have turned up to hear the New York Times bestselling author of Spirit Junkie speak about her journey from hot mess to cool guru.
A glitz-addicted, coke-snorting Manhattan club promoter in thousand-dollar shoes whose holy grail was access to the VIP room, Bernstein was physically, emotionally and spiritually gutted by the time she hit 25.

Charlie Smith: Yesterday's Occupy Vancouver demonstration differed significantly from most protests held in front of the Vancouver Art Gallery.
One of the most striking aspects was the lack of any hierarchy. The event opened with a speech outlining how people could give their consent for various activities. Later, I observed the crowd being asked if it would prefer to hear more speeches or go on a march through downtown Vancouver.
The unions, for the most part, remained at the back of the crowd, along with the Communists and groups like No One is Illegal. And tucked away on the northwest corner of the site…

I'm not sure if you are talking about a mic to record your
presentation or to enhance the sound (in which case you also need an
audio system). I use an Olympus digital recorder to record all of my
lectures along with a small Radio Shack lapel mic which costs about
$25. It just plugs into the recorder and works well. You just need
to remember to turn it off after your lecture so you don't run down
the battery. I lectured at FGS on how to record your lectures, sync
them with your slides, and sell your recordings (you can see a sample
on my website).

Question: My doctor says he will work hard to make sure my pain is well controlled, but I will still have pain. Why doesn't he just give me better pain medication?

Answer:

Some pain after surgery is expected. The goal of pain management is to make the pain manageable, or to significantly reduce your pain. This allows you to get through your day, to take care of yourself and continue with the healing process.

There are several reasons that pain medication is given with the intention of reducing pain, not eliminating pain. It is possible to give too much pain medication. It can interfere with your breathing and can cause sedation beyond what is safe. Many pain medications also cause constipation, which can become a major surgical complication, depending upon the type of surgery you have had. More pain medication can mean more severe constipation.

In some ways, pain protects you. If something hurts, you generally stop doing whatever is causing the pain and investigate. For example, if your foot suddenly hurt every time you took a step, you would stop and look at your foot, and perhaps find a splinter. If you didn't feel that pain, you would not know that there was a problem. The same is true after surgery. An increase in pain near your incision, after several days of the pain getting slowly better, would certainly raise red flags, as would pain that cannot be controlled.

Too much pain after surgery is not a good thing, and you shouldn't "gut it out." If it hurts to breathe deeply, or to cough, you may find yourself breathing shallowly, which can lead to complications like pneumonia. Patients heal faster when their pain is controlled, so don't skip your pain medication unless you truly do not need it. It is reasonable to aim for pain that is a 2-3 out of 10, with zero being no pain and ten being the worst pain you can imagine.

If you are concerned about the level of pain control you will have after surgery, speak with your surgeon before and after your surgery. You may need to provide details on your level of pain, which will help your doctor, and the nursing staff, better understand your pain needs and adjust your medication accordingly. If your pain is unexpectedly severe, you may need to see your surgeon to rule out an unexpected complication.

CyanogenMod Changes Widget Name After Receiving Cease and Desist Order
CM team announced yesterday on Google+ and Facebook that they have received a Cease & Desist concerning the widget Chronus, the name of which apparently is a registered trademark.
Black Friday 2017 Deals: Find Great Deals on Android Smartphones, TV's, Smart Speakers, Chromebooks and More.
For those who haven't heard of the widget, Chronus is CyanogenMod's popular lock screen widget that was introduced in December last year. The widget displays the clock in a Holo-esque fashion along side with configurable calendar and weather information. Chronus also has a home screen clock widget available. The following is the post that brought this issue to the public
Pitfalls of being so big
CyanogenMod is a large entity, with millions of users and a healthy amount of news coverage. Unfortunately, this occasionally has some unintended consequences.
It seems that the trademark for software applications of the name "Cronus" has been previously granted to another entity. Though our widget "Chronus" is in no way similar to this entities' software, we have been served with a Cease & Desist.
While we maintain that there is no infringement, we likewise, do not have the time or resources to fight this C&D. Therefore, we will be changing the name of the widget.
Pick our LockClock widget's new name
"Lemons into lemonade" and all that, help us pick a new name for the widget! As with previous posts of this nature, the final selection will be made by the CM team and is not subject to a popularity poll; this is not a contest.
The team claims they did not violate the trademark and that the widget and the trademarked software have no similarities (the software name is Cronus). But regardless of that, they will not pursue this C&D in court and asked for the community's help to pick the new name.
Among the posted suggestions that caught my eye were Cease&Desist and Not-Cronus. The final name has been revealed to be cLock.
After almost 4 hours from the first post, the team said they chose the community suggested name cLock for its simplicity and its descriptive nature. After a couple of minutes they posted that they have finished changing the widget's name throughout the project. The post signaling the changes is bellow.
Goodbye Chronus, it was nice knowing you
Thanks all for the suggestions, we've selected "cLock" from the list of suggestions as the new name for the widget: Simple and self-explanatory.
The name change has just been merged.

Complaint Review: 99 cent only store
99 cent only store racist unfair humiliation and a hostile working environment casa grande Arizona
*UPDATE Employee: Mad monkey on the loose!
*UPDATE Employee: Happy employee
I recently worked for this company. Upon my hire they said with my background I would be fast traked to management. But to bare with as the new store was yet to open. They sent me to another store for training. The management at that store was horrible to their employees well the non Hispanic employees. I found myself often the third wheel in conversations in Spanish. Oftern you can walk into a room where English is being spoken till your a rival. I push this to the side and thought my performance would be judged fairly. I wish I could say this happened after traing we went to our home store to help stock. The team of traveling store openers all do not speak English. They treated us horrible and made fun of the Hispanic employees who didnt speak Spanish. Management is all Hispanic, they speak spanish infront of those who dont.and treat non Hispanics like trash. Its common practice to yell at employees on the sales floor in a humiliating fashion. When I asked them to stop this they said not to mess up and it would not happen. I put my head down and did my job. Then came time to pick the head cashiers. Instead of picking from those that where promise to Hispanic stockers with no pervious experience where chosen. Not to days before I asked the manager about the position. I had been offered a higher payed job elsewhere and need some insurance that I was being premoted befor declining the offer. The manager smiled and told me how well I wws doing and how much they needed me. And to just bare with things a bit longer. After hearing the news I was not getting the position I spoke with them again. The claimed they wanted people with no experience so they coukd be shaped. And that with all the Hispanic employees they needed someone Hispanic. I quit on the spot. I felt so used and hurt. I endured their abuse watched their abuse of others. I worked hard made good on my end. Only to be humiliated. Don't work for this company are bullies.

Mad monkey on the loose!
AUTHOR: anonymous - ()
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, February 19, 2014POSTED: Wednesday, February 19, 2014
As an empolyee at the 99 cent only store, what ever that heffuh said is totally wrong. Noone was promised any specific position, when you were interviewed they specificly said here at the 99 cent only store they are many oportunities. If we see that you have potiental and have what it takes then you'll be offered whatever position thats open. Everyone is on a 90 day probation, this managers are watching each and everyone. If you do a lame job then you get lame hours. If you work you butt off then youll get reconigized. Each and everyone that are part of management earned the position. It takes hard work and dedication to improve the work. Apparently you didnt have it. Sorry you feel that way about us 99ners. But you can come back and say hi..:) Have a goodnight gotta get back to my "racist" job.. By the way Darleen is awesome, not to sure about julian..:)
#2 UPDATE Employee
Happy employee

SUBMITTED: Tuesday, February 18, 2014POSTED: Tuesday, February 18, 2014
I curently work for the 99 cents only store in Casa Grande, Arizona. And these accusations are faulse and unfair, I have been given a job and have been treated fairly since day one. The management team are just doing their job, not everyone that wants to be managment gets the opportunity either because they are not available or are not the one for the job. The management team observes everyone, to see who best fits the position, it has nothing to do with race or sex. As a matter of fact there are two maembers of management that are not hispanic and don't speak spanish, one member of management is hispanic and doesn't even speak a work of spanish. The store is a new store and is going through a lot of changes, they can't make everyone happy, this is just another employee bashing a company because they didnt get their way, Grow up and move on. As for me I see a great future with the 99Cents only companay, all else is just hear say.

Someone asked on Perlmonks if a hash could do fuzzy matches on keys - this
is the result.
If there's no exact match on the key that you pass to the hash, then the
key is treated as a regex and the first matching key is returned. You can
force it to leap straight into the regex checking by passing a qr'ed regex
into the hash like this:
my $val = $h{qr/key/};
exists and delete also do regex matching. In the case of delete all values
matching your regex key will be deleted from the hash.

Nothing is worse than coming back to your hot car and discovering your makeup melted. Salvage the lipstick with this
3. Have a go-to silk scarf on hand for a quick and stylish updo on hot summer days.
4. Avoid powdering your face to hide sweat. Instead, carry oil-blotting sheets to keep pores from clogging.

6. Eliminate sweat stains with lemon juice.
Spray lemon juice on your clothes right before washing them.
7. Use a raw potato to fix puffy tired eyes.
Let's face it, summer is known for its amazing nights. Refrigerate a raw sliced potato, and lay the cool slices on your eyes to get that fresh-faced look back after a long night.
8. Avoid the chub rub with baby powder.
It's smooth, light, and leaves your skin feeling ready for the heat. Learn how to make your own here.
9. Tame frizz with a toothbrush.
Spray a toothbrush with your favorite product, and smooth away.
10. Place pantyliners in silk shirts to hide sweat.
On hot summer days, no one can avoid sweating. To prevent sweat stains, stick panty liners in the armpits of shirts. See how to do this here.

If you suffer from oily skin, milk of magnesia might actually be your miracle worker. Put it on after your moisturizer before your daily makeup routine for shine free skin.

Tomatoes naturally cool skin down and with this sugar scrub, you will have renewed skin after a harsh day in the sun.
15. Deodorant is your key to a sweat-proof blowout.
As strange as it may sound, swiping a bit of deodorant on the back of your neck helps keep you cool and prevents sweat that can ruin straightened hair. If you have sensitive skin, try making your own natural deodorant here.

By melting down your favorite bright crayons, there are endless combinations. By adding shea butter and olive oil, you get the benefits of a moisturizing balm. Find out how to make it here.
20. Ditch your powder blush for tinted creme blush.
Creme blush works better with sweat than powder.
21. Preserve your razor blade by soaking it in olive oil.
With how much you use your razor during the summer, you want to extend its life as long as possible. Just coat it in olive oil to prevent rust and give it a few more days.
22. For cracked dry feet, use Vaseline and cotton socks for an overnight miracle.
The beach can wreak havoc on your feet and heels, so rub a thin layer of Vaseline on your feet, and slip a pair of socks on. Keep them on overnight, and by the morning you will have newly nourished feet.
23. Smooth dry lips with sugar.
Use sugar cubes or a simple honey and sugar scrub. It's easy, cheap, and edible.
24. Get the dewy look by just adding a bit of highlighter to your foundation.
Be sure to highlight your cheek bones and collarbones.
25. Beat the heat with mint lotion.

I ended up choosing these 2 resto's for my Winterlicious dining....
Sassafraz ($30 lunch): This experience was JUST okay. I know many people reallly enjoy this place so I will not write it off, but THIS experience specifically was very "meh" .
The beet carpaccio was very tiny and had an blood orange sabayon (foam) that I really did not enjoy. It didn't go well with the beet flavour at all. I wished I had ordered the baby spinach and toasted pumpkin seed salad, it looked great. The spinach was so small and cute with the perfect amount of dressing and great manchego cheese.
For our Mains we all ordered the apple Dijon crusted pork tenderloin with sweet potato puree. I could have licked the puree off the plate it was so yummy. But it was the ONLY thing that was keeping the pork moist. It was very overcooked and not very flavourful at all.
For desert the Chocolate Marquis was very rich but I enjoyed it as a splurge. My friend who I was with couldn't stomach it. The creme brulee was also said to be very good.
All and all, I wouldnt go out of my way to hit up Sassafraz again.
BITE ME ($45 Dinner): I thoroughly enjoyed my experience here. The dining room had a great rustic and calming vibe. It didn't feel too pretentious (which I was expecting for some reason - maybe all the buzz around this place right now) The appetizers were very small but good enough. I got the braised cabbage and pork belly. This was a little more bacony tasting than i was expecting, but maybe that is how pork belly is supposed to be. Either way I savoured each tiny bit and and loved the sweet potato agnolotti. My friend got the beet salad and didn't seem too enthused.
The mains were great. Most of us got the Dexter beef à l'Alsacienne and were very happy and actually very full too! Great portions on that one. The sauce was delicious and had a nice wine aftertaste. The texture of the noodles was amazing. It had similar shape to cheese curds but less squeaky. It was a nice change from a noodle or rice dish. The beef was tender and the waiter explained the dishes very accurately. The mushrooms were grilled to perfection. A very satisfying (hearty) dish.
One friend ordered the peppermint and miso glazed sea bass. She thouroughly enjoyed this and said the vegetables on the side were cooked perfectly (nice and crunchy and fresh tasting with lots of flavour) This one is a great option for a lighter/healthier dish.
Desserts were good. We had the Banana cream crêpe soufflé. Satisified my sweet tooth nicely. They didn't mention there was chocolate involved though. Which may have changed things for some people, as it was drenched in a chocolate sauce. The St. Jacobs apple gâteau was reccommended to us and was enjoyed by everyone who had it. This was had a great presentation with a dried apple slice and whipped cream.
All and all a nice experience. No complaints. The waiter was nice and explained things well. He gave us seconds of the fresh bread (nice and warm and moist) and hummus (could have been in a larger ramekin)
- This place could use some music. The seats were comfy. The waiter didnt notice that he completely missed the glass when he poured our perier water. haha. The plates and bowls were really neat looking and added to the experience (they were shaped like a one of those crispy tortilla bowls you sometimes get with a taco salad etc) The new cutlery was appreciated after each course.
Note: the poor girl sitting beside us had her shirt on inside out. Should we have told her? maybe she knew and would have been really insulted if we drew attention to it. Maybe its hottest new look =)
I heard "Lee" is amazing. I want to try it. Good? Reasonably priced? I still also need to try Jamie Kennedy's poutine.

Sochi - A PR stunt to show off Russian President Vladimir Putin's 'soft' side has backfired miserably when he was snapped cuddling up to an endangered baby cheetah cub that turned out to be a $20 stuffed toy made in China.
The Russian leader was posing for photographers at Sochi National Zoo as part of an official caring for animals publicity drive that's previously seen him ride bareback on snowy white chargers, wrestle bear-chested with Siberian sabre-toothed grizzlies and dance semi-naked the butt-poke conga with royal Brit slag Camilla Fucker-Proles.
This morning pics of Putin fondling the fluffy toy were headline news from Moscow to Bloodyvostock despite TV viewers's suspicions that the animal was a hoax.
Irate viewers even telephoned the Good Morning Russia! breakfast show to complain about a manufacturer's label sewn into the back of the toy's ear which was translated from Mandarin to read: Machine Washable At 40 Degrees.
Tomorrow's planned PR photoshoot of the Russian president arm-wrestling endangered species marsh alligators may now be put on hold.

I was wondering the other night this very question. I'm pretty clueless at what the media splitters/Filters do so I thought I'd post a question on what exactly these little apps do. How do they work? Why do we need them etc?
Do players like MPC HC, PotPlayer, SMplayer, Zoom Player have them built-in?

DirectShow pieces together all these components into a "filter graph" every time you play a video. Here's the graph for playing a VOB file:
excellent explanation jagabo...very "101"and easy to understand
what makes these seprate Filters/Splitters any better than the other?...i.e...will Haali be any better than LAV and vice versa?...do they have the same basic compenents built in or are they different?
Different reader/splitter packages may handle different file types. I've Haali for years. I'm aware of LAV but I've never used it. Microsoft often changes the A/V specifications to add features like support of interlaced video and hardware MPEG 2 and h.264 decoding. Different readers/splitters (and players) may lag in support for those features. And different software has different bugs. Basically, use what works for you.

Morning Score: S.C. debate time
From today's edition:
BACK IN S.C. – FULL SPEED AHEAD: The South Carolina Republican Party is moving forward with the debate and a presidential straw poll set for this weekend. CNN's Peter Hamby: "South Carolina GOP Chairwoman Karen Floyd held a conference call with members of the party's executive committee to brief them on the debate as well as plans for the state party convention, being held Friday and Saturday in Columbia. Each of the debate participants are being invited to speak at the Silver Elephant Banquet in Columbia on Friday night, the state party's biggest fundraiser of the year. Party officials plan to conduct a 2012 presidential straw poll at the banquet on Friday evening." http://bit.ly/mik9JW
Story Continued Below
SCENES FROM THE REELECT – "Oprah didn't scrap dated Obama scoop" – The New York Post: "After a morning of agonizing, Oprah yesterday aired her interview with President Obama — taped nearly a week ago — without mentioning the stunning news that Osama bin Laden had been killed in a daring raid ordered by the president … [T]he show aired, uncut and without an Oprah intro explaining what had happened since it was taped. The only indication was a line on the screen, 'Previously recorded,' that appeared several times during the show … Subjects ranged from Obama's release that morning of a copy of his long-form birth certificate to the secrets of a healthy marriage to his re-election campaign. But no mention was made during the hour of the war on terrorism." http://nyp.st/kCQzun
HE'S BACK, BABY – STEELE VS. THE FIELD – Former Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele pooh-poohed his party's array of 2012 contenders, saying in an appearance on ABC's "Top Line" that candidates should stop "whining" about Donald Trump. "I'd be less worried about that and more concerned about the fact no one else has stepped up to challenge him, to push back, and to stake their claim," Steele said. "Right now the Republican candidates for the nomination are not getting the traction they need to go up against the president of the United States, an incumbent president of the United States who is a formidable campaigner, who's a heck of a fundraiser, and who has the wind of the economy and now some international success in his sails." http://abcn.ws/kjZRFn

GoodSamaritan's Experiments
<< < (3/71) > >>
Gosh, if it is 5 to 6 weeks, I think I would need different animals.
I would alternate land animals with sea food.
--- Quote from: TylerDurden on July 11, 2009, 03:55:46 pm ---I would suggest a 5-6 week trial. By that stage, you should have a good idea as to whether it's a success or a failure re health.
--- End quote ---
Note Lex's comments on how long changes take.
3 months might be a fair trial, but if it does not work for you that would be evident sooner.
--- Quote from: Nicola on July 10, 2009, 07:31:01 pm ---Lex, I thought that with meat the body would be converting the protein to glucose like you said?
--- End quote ---
Yes, my experiments seem to demonstrate that about 58% (who really knows), of all the protein we eat is converted to glucose. That doesn't stop the body from converting many of its tissues to run more efficiently on fatty acids. As I understand it, tissues in the eyes and some areas of the brain require glucose to function. Most other tissue will do fine on ketones or fatty acids once they gear up for it.
Many of the body's tissues can utilize either glucose or fatty acids. Cells metabolize glucose using a fermentation process. To utilize fatty acids requires mitochondria as part of the process. Most cancer cells are short on mitochondria and therefore require glucose to grow and multiply as they can't efficiently metabolize fatty acids. Normal cells can use either glucose or fatty acids, but seem to require some time to switch enzymes or add additional mitochondria to gain maximum efficiency on one fuel or the other.
Like automobiles that have a dual fuel system (will run on either propane or unleaded gas), each fuel type has its specific requirements and trade-offs and the engine must be specifically adjusted to maximize efficiency for the most used fuel. The alternate fuel will work but power and milage will suffer unless the engine is re-tuned. Our bodies are the same. The only difference is that the body will detect the new fuel and over time will adjust itself.
--- Quote from: goodsamaritan on July 11, 2009, 08:19:54 pm ---Gosh, if it is 5 to 6 weeks, I think I would need different animals.
I would alternate land animals with sea food.
--- End quote ---
Why would you think that you would need meat from different animals if your experiment is extended beyond a couple of weeks? I've eaten beef almost exclusively for several years now and have experienced no problems whatsoever. All other meats (or eggs) make up less than 5% of my total diet. Beef makes up the other 95%.
My update, the kalamansi in water in the morning didn't work out, it just made my tummy acidic. And I had no appetite for raw beef at breakfast.
The next day I tried coconut water with the meat / fat - calmer stomach.
My next days will be coconut water with the meat / fat in the mornings, then raw beef at lunch and dinner. Still adjusting...

As people age, their immune system becomes less robust. This makes them more susceptible to serious and frequently life-threatening infections with viruses that affect the respiratory tract such as influenza A virus (IAV). Stanley Perlman and colleagues, at the University of Iowa, Iowa City, have now identified a new immune system defect in aged mice that makes them more susceptible than young mice to developing severe clinical disease upon infection with respiratory viruses such as IAV. Importantly, they were able to reverse the defect by inhibiting the immune molecule PGD2. Perlman and colleagues therefore suggest that inhibition of PGD2 could provide a way to improve clinical outcomes in older patients with severe respiratory viral infections and perhaps more importantly enhance the efficacy of flu vaccines in the elderly.
In an accompanying commentary, Thomas Braciale and Taeg Kim, at the University of Virginia, Charlottesville, discuss in more detail the clinical significance of the work of Perlman and colleagues.

Thanks to the generosity of nearly 13,000 people, neither an elderly gentleman nor his wife will ever have to work again.
Now and again, a story surfaces which?inspires faith in humanity. The following is one of those tales..
When Joel Cervantes was driving through the Little Village district of Chicago, Illinois, he happened to spot an elderly man pushing a popsicle stand up the street. The 89-year-old had stooped shoulders and an exhausted demeanor, and should so clearly be enjoying retirement instead of working, thought Joel.
For this reason, the activist decided to do what he could to improve Sanchez?s situation. First, he purchased 20 popsicles for the price of $50. Then, he snapped a?photo of the vendor and wished him well. His philanthropy didn?t end there, however. The entire car ride back to his home, Cervantes brainstormed of how he could help the man. Then, an ingenious idea hit him…
With the aid of his friend, Joe Loera, Cervantes set up a Go Fund Me campaign for the popsicle vendor with a?goal of raising $3,000 to ease his financial struggles. You can imagine Joel?s surprise when, just two days later, he learned that the campaign had raised more than $280,000 thanks to nearly 13,000 donors.
When Cervantes told Sanchez of his good fortune, the 89-year-old man was overwhelmed. He explained that times had been tough since his daughter, who had been financially supporting him and his wife, had passed away only a month prior. With bills stacking up, he had no choice but to take to the streets and do what he could to earn an income. For a while, his wife had been helping him sell popsicles, but then she fell ill and couldn?t work.
Fortunately, neither Sanchez nor his wife should ever have to work in their lifetimes again. This incredible story is proof that amazing things can happen when kind-hearted people collaborate to enact positive change.?
Cervantes wrote on the Go Fund Me page:
?The Sanchez family really appreciates all the love and support that they are receiving from people from all around the world. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you to all the people who tag me and have nice things to say. I wish I can respond to every single one of you. GOD IS GOOD!?

The Alpha Plague series is a postapocalyptic action thriller.
Vicky, Rhys, Larissa, and Flynn have avoided the horde of diseased that chased them from Summit City, but they're far from free. Although the diseased can't get to them while they remain on top of the shipping container, at some point they'll have to come down.
With a sea of enraged monsters as far as they can see, coming down means certain death. Exhausted from their escape, they may be able to rest for now, but sooner rather than later they're going to have to take action to get themselves out of their current predicament.

text: Ellicott International recently unveiled details on a new type of dredge that actually walks by itself. The dredge moves on three moving spuds or traveling carriages enabling it to remain in exact position at all times because there are always two spuds firmly anchored in the bottom. It walks with the spuds while floating on the surface. This positioning allows the cutter to move forward into the next cut without losing position. This same technology also enables the dredge to move backwards to pick up contaminated material which dredging may have missed yet still remains in the same exact position to continue the forward dredging. The new swinging ladder dredge with three traveling spud carriages using no cables. The new dredge lends itself to precise dredging and positioning especially in rivers where there are currents. Where standard dredges are at risk of losing their positioning due to currents, this one is not. There are also no cables to operate the dredge and so no cables to engage contaminated sediments causing undesirable turbidity. Even the stern spud has a power down feature that enables a firm grip into the bottom. Ellicott equips the dredge with a special underwater relief valve that prevents line plugging and allows for an exact amount of contaminated material to be pumped consistently, irrespective of the bottom sediment condition. In many cases, especially in river environments, contaminants are present not only in the sediments but also through migration in the sandy or clay original bottoms. The dredge's cutter has sufficient power to remove these contaminates in thin layers. The unit can remove sediments to a depth of 22 ft. (7 m) below the water surface. The unit has controls that tell the dredge operator exactly which layers the cutter is in. The cutter can dredge to tolerances of plus or minus one inch (25 mm) which is critical, especially for contaminated sediments. The operator controls keep re-suspension of the sediment back into the water column to an absolute minimum. All dredge functions are linked to global positioning systems. This new environmental swinging ladder dredge is the first major improvement in this type of technology in many years, and Ellicott sees uses in lakes, and narrow canals such as the thousands of miles of canals in Florida which will need dredging. Ellicott has one unit now operating in a mid-west USA location. Both functions of the ladder - swinging and raising/lowering - are controlled by hydraulic rams. Because the ram which raises and lowers the ladder can apply a downward force on the cutter, it ensures that the cutter is in full contact with the contaminated sediment at all times and not bouncing over, which would cause undesirable turbidity. The dredge is available in discharge flows of 1,500 to 6,000 gal/min. (5,700 to 22,700 l/min.). It is very compatible with contaminated sediment treatment systems because of the accurate percentage of slurry in the pipeline system on a consistent basis. The dredge is so mobile that it can make right and left turns, back up, and even parallel park itself much like parking a car.

Florence District One finalizes superintendent candidates
Fri, 14 Mar 2014 12:46:41 GMT —
Updated: It was announced on March 19 that Scott Mercer has withdrawn his name from consideration.
Florence School District One has released the names of the four candidates being considered for superintendent.
The district had the South Carolina School Boards Association conduct a nation-wide search.
The Florence One School Board has been conducting interviews with candidates during this past week.
The candidates are: Angela Bain, Ph.D., Chief Human Resources Officer of School District Five of Lexington and Richland Counties, Irmo; Scott J. Mercer, Ph.D., Superintendent of Spartanburg School District Two, Boiling Springs; Terri Mozingo, Ed.D., Assistant Superintendent, Research and Accountability, Durham Public Schools, Durham, North Carolina; and James Winbush, Ed.D., Associate Superintendent, Innovation Zone Learning Community, Charleston County School District, Charleston.
During the next phase of the process, candidates will return to Florence for interviews and a chance to meet with the public.
Each of the community meet and greet sessions will be held from 5:00 p.m. until 6:00 p.m. at the Francis Marion University Performing Arts Center (PAC), on the following dates: Monday, March 17th; Monday, March 24th; Monday, March 31st; and Monday, April 7th. Candidates will appear separately at the PAC each evening and will be afforded an opportunity to provide 10 minute remarks which will be followed by a question and answer session. Stewart said that the public is encouraged to participate in meeting the candidates.
The start date for the new superintendent is expected to be no later than July 1, 2014.

1990 Loyale
My old clock is no longer repairable and I was fortunate enough to find a replacement. The replacement has a plug connector but I can't reach or find the connector on the old one.
The replacement is from a 92 Subie. Perhaps my '90 doesn't have a plug connector ??
The only apparent access seems to be removal of the dash section that holds the clock, but I'm only seeing two screws at the top near the windshield. What other hidden screws are there ?

Photographer's Note
Those who have been to a place called Naddi at Dharamshala in India will vouch for the beauty of that place. Views can be seen at the link in the bottom.
Naddi, as such, is new as a tourist destination. And like any other such place, this one too is growing to take in the opportunity available to the early mover. The road is still not in place, but the buildings have started coming up. In the absence of regulations, what is coming up is haphazard, and such may be the condition even ten years later, when the place becomes a major tourist spot of the state of Himachal Pradesh.
Views can be had at https://www.google.co.in/search?hl=en&site=imghp&tbm=isch&source=hp&biw=1024&bih=677&q=naddi+view&oq=naddi+view&gs_l=img.3...1184.1184.0.2028.1.1.0.0.0.0.94.184.108.40.206....0...1ac.1.35.img..1.0.0.zFf2FJqWxHE

Hello Apurba,
This is a fine depiction with a nice narration how these beautiful places are being spoiled. What would have been a verdant green slope is now dotted with these ugly concrete structures.

Hunting for an answer to poverty
JANESVILLE Help is available for those struggling with poverty.
Government agencies, community organizations, church groups and others offer meals, clothing, job search assistance and more to people that have fallen on hard times.
But many people who need help don't know how to find it among a complex web of agencies and organizations, many with different hours and missions.
To help the public understand what it's like to seek services, the Homeless Intervention Task Force is hosting the first Poverty Scavenger Hunt on Friday, Sept. 28.
"You don't know where to start, so sometimes people just guess" said Jessica Schafer, client advocate at ECHO.
Here's how the simulation will work: Teams of up to five members can complete the scavenger hunt in Janesville or Beloit. Teams may rely on one member for transportation or take the bus and receive extra points. Each team will be assigned one of 14 scenarios created by organizers.
Some scenarios would require a team to take on the role of a pregnant woman with two children who is forced out of her home by domestic violence and is looking for food and shelter. Other scenarios involve a young man working a minimum-wage job struggling to pay for child support, rent and gas.
According to the event's registration flyer, teams will be sent to agencies to learn about services and barriers. While at each agency, teams will be awarded points based on whether services are available and whether the team is eligible.
Organizers hope the event will raise money and awareness.
"You don't really think about ECHO until you or a family member need it," said Fran Brien, volunteer coordinator at ECHO.
