Teenage leaders show the way
A clothing collection for the De Paul House, a beach clean-up and supporting a fundraising Gala at the Wilson Home are only three of the projects Takapuna Grammar Schools' Young Leader's Club have tackled in the past year.
The Young Leaders' Club is a committee, started by some enthusiastic students, searching for their chance to give back to the North Shore community.
"Initially, a group of us went to Ms Basse, the senior manager of our year, with the intent of finding out what sort of leadership roles we could adopt in the school. She suggested that we start a young leadership group, and it has been running ever since," says Danielle Desvaux de Marigny, one of the founding members of the committee.
This inspiring group of friends has been showing true spirit, keeping a keen eye out for those in the North Shore area who may need some extra support. In the short time they have been operating, The Young Leaders' Club has an impressive track record. Numbers are growing, with the committee already up to 14 members.
The first project they decided to tackle was a clothing collection for the De Paul house, a charity organisation in Northcote that provides housing and family support services. They work with homeless families, helping them get back on their feet and re-establish themselves in the community. The Young Leaders' Club organised and ran a clothing collection for three and a half months. Their fellow students donated any unwanted clothing, which was given to the De
Paul house.
"Collecting clothing for the De Paul House was our first project. This made it very important because it was us creating our reputation. We wanted to do well and try our best. By the time it was over I think my team members and I had made a good impression and we were happy that we were able to fulfil our goal," explains Kelsey Schutte. Over 50 bags of clothing were collected and distributed during this time, to those in need.
Next, the students decided to support the environment, getting their hands dirty with a beach clean-up and tree restoration in Long Bay. During the day the team got together with Takapuna Grammar School's Environmental club and showed their environmentally friendly side by picking up all of the litter on Long Bay's gorgeous water front. "It was great to know that we were helping to keep the environment clean," says Pip Charlett-Green. "It was a fun experience to be able to spend a day outside in the sun with my friends."
Restoring trees by weeding and cleaning up the area in Long Bay Regional Park also proved to be a satisfying day. Encouraged by the beautiful weather the devoted students restored over 70 trees, helping to return the park to its
natural glory.
The next event took place a little closer to home. The Young Leaders' Club gave their lively assistance to Takapuna Grammar School's neighbours, The Wilson Home Trust. Late last year the Wilson Home held a fundraiser to raise money for the Trust. It was a splendid day with entertainment everywhere, from the bands to the book stalls. And don't forget of course the all-important bouncy castle and slide manned by The Young Leaders' Club, which kept children entertained for hours. Committee member Sarah Han says: "It was great to see people having so much fun and helping out with the event was a great feeling!"
The Young Leaders' Club's most recent project is currently under way. They are supporting Onepoto Primary School, in Northcote. Onepoto is the only Decile 1 school on the North Shore. On hearing this, The Young Leaders contacted the school to see if they could offer any assistance. They left with a grand plan in mind, to paint the faded courts of the primary school so that the students had a fun area to play at morning tea and lunch times. Unfortunately, they soon found that their plan was a little too ambitious and would require expertise they just did not have access to. This didn't faze them. They concocted a new plan; to buy sports equipment such as skipping ropes and hoola-hoops for the children, as well as giving the school a cheque which they could use for something such as new gazebos.
They faced another obstacle, finding a way to raise the money. However, being the bright students they are, they came up with a plan. They approached the school prefects and asked if they could use the next school mufti day as an opportunity to raise the funds. Later that term, tiger and penguin 'onsies', dressing gowns and slippers were just a few of the strange outfits seen at Takapuna Grammar School. Every cent, of the over $1200 raised on the pyjama themed mufti day, will go towards purchasing the sports equipment the committee looks forward to presenting the school sometime in the next few weeks. "It was not exactly what we planned, but it's still good," says Danielle.
"Coming up with our next challenge is always the most difficult part. However, once this obstacle is over come, we tend to be right on our way to achieving something great," Kelsey says.

It's been
a little over a month about 3 months since we brought home a new addition to our family, Audrey. A one year old Australian Kelpie mix. We adopted her from the Humane Society of Broward County, the same no-kill shelter we adopted our Macy from many years ago.
Audrey came from San Juan, Puerto Rico and was only at the Humane Society for one day when we came to adopt a dog. Not too much is known about her history except that she was found as a stray and from looking at her immunization records was at the Sav-A-Sato shelter for a few months before being brought to Florida. The Broward Humane Society works with the shelter in San Juan and they get dogs from there about once a month. She is about a year old.
The older two kids had a dentist appointment in the morning and Ally stayed home with Corey. While I was waiting for the kids, I was texting with Corey and told him I was going to stop at Chik-Fil-A for lunch and surprise Ally with it. And I get a message back, why not pick out a pup and surprise her with that instead? I was a little taken aback by that since he'd been adamant about not getting another dog. The kids and I had been wanting to get one again even though I was still on the fence. Conner, Ash and I ended up going to our local PetCo which has a small adoption center from the humane society but as it happened, it was closed that day. A friend had shared pics of the cutest puppies the day before… bummer. So, off we went to another local shelter, one that I had never been to and for some reason felt a little unsure about. I had heard murmurs about the place (not good ones) but nothing concrete. When we got there, a few cars were in the parking lot and a few volunteers were walking some pooches. One of the volunteers, a nice young gentlemen, approached us and told us that the shelter was closed to the public that day. Again… bummer.
I was going to call it a day and possibly try again the next day but we were close to the Turnpike and the kids were game so we headed south to the Broward County Humane Society. Conner started searching for dogs on his phone and found Audrey right away. He had his heart set on her from then on. When we got there, I was very pleasantly surprised by how clean and welcoming the place looked. I had never been there and always think of shelters as dingy, sad places. We went through the process of picking out a dog and walked through the kennels. Conner found Audrey right away and she came right up to the glass partition. He was smitten from that moment on and didn't care to look at any of the other pups. I walked through and stopped at pretty much every kennel just to say a kind word to all of the pups waiting for their forever homes. I think for me, that was the sad part, knowing I can't take them all…
We finally settled on three dogs to look at and were told to go wait in one of the little meeting rooms. They brought Audrey out first and the rest, as they say, is history.
She's been such a great addition to the family and every time I get mad at her for doing what dogs do, I just have to remember the joy and laughter that she's brought to the house. Ally loves to play with her and the belly laughs when she does are contagious. I can't help but smile. Audrey is such a love, she loves to snuggle and be close to one of us at all times. She definitely followed me around the most in the beginning and would barely go near Corey but now loves to snuggle and play with him so much. She's come out of her shell and has blossomed since we got her 3 months ago. She's also showed her crazy, hyper side (something we are actually quite happy to see since she was so timid the first few days) and I'm grateful we have a big backyard for her to run in. She loves to chase after the squirrels and ducks and has chased a flock of Ibis into the lake before. I have a feeling she'll join us in the pool once it's warmed up a bit more. I lovingly call her Audrey the destroyer since she's gone through a few stuffed toys already. She very patiently sits and rips them apart until all the stuffing is out and spread around the house. I don't mind too much since she hasn't destroyed any shoes and such. As long as she sticks to her toys, I'm ok with it. She does occasionally run off with a pair of socks left unattended but we have so far caught her right away.
It's definitely been a bit different getting an "adult" dog and not a puppy. I have to say, I don't mind at all. She's had a few accidents and isn't 100% house-trained but all in all it's nothing like it was with a puppy in the house. She seems so grateful to be with us and I think, we all just love having her around.
Please, if you think of getting a dog – ADOPT, don't shop!
xoxo, Susi

There is much controversy over the existence and location of the best NY (Neapolitan) pizza in Northern Virginia, especially on sites like fairfaxunderground.com. After carefully considering most of the reviews of most the pizza places within a reasonable distance - and there were many of them, I chose Tony's NY Pizza in Manassas to satisfy my hankering for a crispy NY pizza.
My credentials: born near New York City with innumerable forays into the city for cultural and culinary experiences, lived in Manhattan for four years, lived in the Bronx for four years.
Context: there are heated debates as to whether a 'true' NY pizza can be found in the borough of Manhattan versus the Bronx, so how can anyone agree that such a thing exists in Virginia?
Next, define the essence of 'NY pizza': with regard to structure, it must have a thin and crispy crust, crust rim must be nicely browned and almost burnt in one or two places. The sauce and cheese basic topping must be skimpy but just thick enough to burn the roof of your mouth, if eaten too fast, too soon (additional toppings allowed). There must be slightly too much corn meal release on the underside of the crust and there must be one or more large bubbles that bulge the bottom crust up through the topping or that distort the rim crust. With regard to taste, the crust must be toasty, the sauce savory, richly tomato-y with just the right touch of oregano, the cheese both oily and milky.
Finally, onto the review of Tony's NY pizza. I tried the plain cheese Neapolitan small pizza in order to evaluate the above-mentioned points. I asked for extra crispy crust in order to encourage the best approximation of a NY pizza. The large number of behind-the counter- workers stands in stark contrast to the one or two guys behind the counter of the NY pizza joints with the best reputations. I watched as my request for crispiness fell onto deaf ears, did not get transmitted, and the bottom crust was pale and soft. I also saw no pizza dough being tossed and spun. The crust was adequately toasty but the flour was not the flour used in the Bronx. The topping was thicker and likely more acceptable to the local pizza eaters than my memories of NY toppings. The sauce was delicious; it was a nice balance between savory and slightly sweet, and the cheese was very good. The note of herb, or oregano was missing but, fortunately, there were jars of oregano and pepper flakes on the table.
I also had the delicious-looking tiramisu for dessert. It was richly chocolatey with good coffee taste suffusing the ladyfingers, good creme anglaise and good whipped cream. I give it an A-. Better tiramisu can only be found at Cin cin in Vancouver, BC, City Cafe on Greenwood in Dallas, TX, or my tiramisu, since I use the recipe developed for the available US market by the inventor of tiramisu.
Back to Tony's: pies are available as Neapolitan, thick Sicilian, or focaccia crust. Many other seafood and pasta casseroles are available, calzones are offered and several other desserts are available. They all look good but went unsampled.
Bottom line: I would take a pizza-lover here, but not if they were pointedly looking for a NY pizza. My suspicion is that no one who has eaten a Neapolitan pizza in the Bronx (Ok, ok, perhaps in Manhattan, too) will be satisfied by any pizza baked in Northern Virginia.

A TEENAGE boy has been charged with raping two girls in a city car park.
The attack on the 14-year-old girls is alleged to have taken place at around midnight on Friday in the private car park next to Southgate House in Havelock Street.
Detectives investigating the incident say it was reported at around 2am on Saturday.
The first floor level of the car park was sealed off on Saturday morning. The area has since been forensically examined.
It is understood the girls are not from Cardiff.
A 17-year-old boy from Cardiff was arrested on Saturday afternoon and charged with two counts of rape. A second man, aged 19, was later arrested on Sunday morning in connection with the incident.
Detective Sergeant Stuart Adams, at Roath CID, confirmed the 19-year-old had been charged after being questioned by officers at Rumney police station yesterday.
"He was charged with one count of unlawful sexual intercourse and a number of other offences in relation to the incident including robbery," said Det Sgt Adams.
The 19-year-old was due to appear in Cardiff Magistrates' Court today.
The 17-year-old has been bailed to appear in court on Friday.

Charter Champions: 2010
U.S. Representative Jared Polis (D-CO-2nd)
Polis introduced the bipartisan All Students Achieving through Reform Act (All-STAR), H.R. 4330, to support the expansion and replication of high-quality public charter schools that close the achievement gap. It is a key proposal and recognized as the most important piece of federal charter school legislation proposed since the original Charter Schools Program in 1994. Throughout his public service, Rep. Polis, who founded and served as superintendent of charter schools serving at-risk students, has worked hard to ensure that public charter schools are treated fairly and have equal access to education dollars.
Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal (R)
Jindal advanced legislation to remove the state cap on charter school growth, improve charter school funding equity and strengthen charter school authorizing practices. Each of these elements supports a policy environment in which charter schools can thrive. Governor Jindal is also responsible for many of the groundbreaking education reform efforts in New Orleans – where charters serve a higher percentage of public school students than anywhere else in the nation with 57 percent of public school students in charter schools.
Michigan State Senator Wayne Kuipers (R-30th)
Kuipers led an effort to lift Michigan's cap on charter schools and was instrumental in building bipartisan support of charter schools in December 2009. His support and leadership has led to countless new public education opportunities for children throughout the state.
St. Louis Mayor Francis G. Slay (D)
Slay is a vocal advocate for increasing the presence of high-quality public charter schools in St. Louis. His work to attract high-quality charter operators to St. Louis – and support them during the application development and approval process – is a national example of how mayors can work directly to improve their cities' public education offerings.

Elsa, Do you want to install a Win 10 build?Posted by kyle on February 12th, 2015 filed in Windows 10, Windows Insider Preview
(I hope that popped into your head with the tune of "Do you want to build a Snowman?")
So – you decided to install Windows 10 – you read all the previous caveats and still decided it was ok for you? Excellent – well – read on dear reader.
Last week I had my Dell XPS 13 replaced (twice as it turned out – but that is a separate issue) and I had need to therefore rebuild it as Windows 10 from the Window 8.1 that was installed. Rather than do a dump and burn of the existing OS I decided to do an inplace upgrade. In place upgrades will be the norm rather than the exception with Windows 10 so it seemed timely.
So here are the steps:
- Sign up to the Windows Insider program – this is the easy bit and has also been documented previously in another post. (here is a hint though : https://insider.windows.com/)
After signing up you will then be able to download and install the Windows 10 Technical Preview. First step is to start the setup wizard:
Read and accept the End User Licence Agreement (we all read EULA's right?)
The setup will now run a system check to make sure that you are ready to go with your setup.
As long as that goes ok – then you are good to go – and can then decide when you want to the upgrade.
If you decide to schedule the upgrade then you can go ahead and select a time and date and then click Upgrade at a scheduled time.
In my case, cialis I just wanted to get it started so clicked on Start upgrade now. Then after a couple of reboots, discount 18 Minutes and 18 Seconds later – I had my desktop back and updated to Windows 10.
So there you have it – the upgrade process – simple, troche easy and quick!
In the next post I will look at configuring Cortana to take advantage of the new functionality and also setting up OneDrive.

"I wanted something more then just strawberry jam, I saw this recipe online for jelly. So I added the vanilla to the jam I was making. This is good for toast/muffins and over ice cream. Time does not count overnight time. Cooking time counts canning time."
Strawberry Vanilla Jam
0 recipe photos
READY IN:45mins
YIELD:8 half pints
Ingredients Nutrition
- 4 cups fresh strawberries, hauled and cut in half
- 7 cups sugar
- 1 vanilla bean
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1⁄2 teaspoon butter (optional)
- 1 (3 ounce) envelope liquid fruit pectin
- Put all fresh cut strawberries and vanilla been in a plastic gallon bag with 1 cup sugar and set overnight in the fridge.
- The next day, there should now be some juices in the bag along with the strawberries. Put the sugar/strawberries/juice in pan, take out vanilla bean. Cut bean in half down the center. Scrape out seeds and put into pan with strawberries. Discard bean pod. Stir in remaining sugar, lemon zest and add butter.
- Bring to full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop bubbling when stirred) on high heat, stirring constantly.
- Take off heat. Stir in pectin. Return to full rolling boil and boil for exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim off any foam with metal spoon.
- Take potato masher and mash strawberries to the size you want in jam. Let this cool for 5/10 minutes, so that all the fruit will not rise to the top in jars.
- Ladle immediately into prepared jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of tops. Wipe rim clean.
- Apply lids, then rings and tighten rings to fingertip tightness.
- Process in boiling water bath for your altitude time.
- P.S. Tips: A. If using fresh strawberries, they can be crushed before cooking/boiling. But I like chunky jam and I have found that the strawberries melt during the boiling time if I mash them first. So I prefer to do this after boiling. This way I have more control of the final fruit size B. In summer we freeze lots of strawberries for me to make jam in fall for xmas baskets. Once they are unfrozen there is juice already, so I skip the overnight process. C: Just an FYI, If you use store bought bagged frozen strawberries, since they are cut more then half and are not fresh they break down even faster during the boiling time. D. You can also make this with low sugar pectin or no sugar recipes, just follow the fruit/sugar qty's on the pectin boxes instructions.

Went to Tutti Matti for Summerlicious lunch....I work in the area and had often passed it thinking I should try. It is usually very busy so I thought it a good sign. Given its rather dingy general location, and position right on busy Adelaide, I thought the crowds inside were all in on a secret. Unfortunately I needn't have felt I was missing out on anything.
While each of the dishes sounded lovely on paper, and while they looked beautiful on the plate, they were all flat. In contrast to the simple burst of flavour Tuscan dishes often provide, everything served to us was rather bland. The carpaccio tasted of...well....protein, but not of beef. The ragu was also just 'meat' - no garlic or basil or anything of note. The frittata was merely egg...At this point I am repeating myself, but the one thing that shone through was the strawberry compote on vanilla gelato because it tasted....of glorious strawberries!
I fully understand the tradition of allowing a few basic ingredients speak for themselves, but these ingredients didn't have anything to say.
Service was good, though detached, and our table of 3 was presented a bill with the 15% gratuity included. While I expect gratuities to be added to tables larger than 5, I certainly didn't expect it for 3 people at lunch. I found it very off-putting that I wasn't allowed to assess the quality of the food and service myself.

German and British troops played impromptu matches along the Western Front in no man's land during Christmas 1914 and the iconic moment is to be remembered this year as part of WW1 commemoration events.
Football Remembers will see every team in the Premier League and Football League, as well as all 24 England national sides, mark the centenary of the Great War.
Football clubs and more than 30,000 schools across the country are also being asked to take part in a number of events between now and December, with the first two being launched today.
The Duke of Cambridge is involved in a project to design a permanent memorial to the football played during the truce, which took place on Christmas Day 1914 in Flanders.
The winning design, to be chosen by Prince William and Walcott, will be built at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire and formally unveiled in December.
The Duke, who is president of the FA, said: "It promises to be a powerful way to engage and educate young people about such an important moment in our history.
"We all grew up with the story of soldiers from both sides putting down their arms on Christmas Day, and it remains wholly relevant today as a message of hope over adversity, even in the bleakest of times."
Research revealed earlier this year by the British Council found the Christmas truce was one of the most recognised moments of the First World War - with more than two-thirds of UK adults aware of the historic football matches.
British Council chief executive Martin Davidson said: "For a brief moment in history, the Christmas truce showed how people-to-people connections can triumph at a time of global crisis.
"This year's centenary is a valuable opportunity for a new generation to learn about that historic moment and the First World War more widely - the consequences of which continue to shape the world today, and the way in which people overseas view the UK."

Ambassador Capricia Marshall is offering up some advice on how to stay fresh-faced and looking good while jetting around the world.
The affable Chief of Protocol — known for her serious sense of style —was one of several honorees at last week's Running Start Women to Watch Awards at the National Press Club. The nonpartisan, nonprofit organization works to educate young women about politics and inspire them to run for elected office.
Before bestowing the "Trailblazer Award" on Marshall, former White House press secretary Dee Dee Myers joked of her designer label-wearing friend, "Ask anyone who knows her and I really believe the first word to describe her is 'generous.' She would give you, really give you, the shirt off her back, even if you have no use for that size 2 Oscar de la Renta."
Right off the bat, Marshall says water is her BFF in the air: "Lots of water. Water, water, water. People say that, but it's true. You really got to drink a lot of water for your skin to stay nourished and not to get all sort of dry and crackly."
While she's been known to sport Manolo Blahniks in public (which led to an embarrassing tumble captured on YouTube at a 2010 White House state dinner), Marshall admits her footwear in the skies is far less formal.
"This is going to be silly, but I'm going to say it. I wear compression socks because when you get off the plane, you know how your feet are swollen and your legs get swollen? Never with compression socks. It helps with circulation," she says.
Marshall also recommends refraining from overindulging and maintaining a balanced diet.
But her final suggestion might throw weary world travelers for a loop: "Big, big, big tip: The second I land, if I can … I work out immediately. It really helps with jet lag."
Although sweating up a storm in a faraway land after an endless flight might not appeal to everyone, Marshall claims hitting the gym is the way to go: "As soon as I land, I put on my workout clothes, and I go at it."

Meggy's mother was glad to be rid of her; her father, who sent for her, doesn't want her after all. Meggy is appalled by London,dirty and noisy, full of rogues and thieves, and difficult to get around in - not that getting around is ever easy for someone who walks with the help of two sticks.
Just as her alchemist father pursues his Great Work of transforming base metal into gold, Meggy finds herself pursuing her own transformation. Earthy and colorful, Elizabethan London has its dark side, but it also has gifts in store for Meggy Swann.

Higly recomended
This is a story about the alchemy of the human spirit. Meggy Swann makes the transformation from a hidden away defensive crippled girl, to a kind and generous, strong and confident young woman as she moves from her mother's house in the country to her father's house in the city of London.
Katherine Kellgren's voice lends itself well to that of an adolescent teenage girl, and her narration is faultless for all other character, as always.
- LCNanny
Great story, not my favorite narration
Really fun coming of age story about a girl who had to learn to "stand on her own two feet" even when they don't work quite as well as they should. Meggy learns that family doesn't equal love and safety, but that finding good friends to help you through life are a wonderful gift.
Wasn't a big fan of the narration, especially did not enjoy her representation of Meggy. But didn't "not" enjoy it enough to stop listening. I've read the book several times on my own and simply enjoy the story itself.

General Question
How do I teach someone deep-breathing?
Asked by serenityNOW (3631) January 25th, 2012 from iPhone
My new beau doesn't know the trick of breathing through his diaphragm, and not his lungs. I remember someone having me lay on the floor with a book on my belly and making the book go up and down, but that's about it. Anyone?
He's so stressed and needs some good, deep breaths

I'm still trying to catch up with the group at some point. I have
been watching and hoping to make an SCBeemers event.
In case you're interested, part of my challenge has been posted to
the group site. I've been working on replacing my clutch friction
plate, et al. I'm done with the pressure plates, friction plate,
spring, replacement...now working on putting it back together.
I will note that all parts were purchased from Woodson's. I priced
everything up online with the cheapest sources I could find, then
Woodson's matched the price...nice...

I wanted to share the story because not only did he live just a few miles from me but I believe his story to be quite inspirational. After being diagnosed with a terminal illness at 15 he could have quite easily just gave up on life but he decided to turn his illness into a fundraising campaign. His initial target was just £10,000 but he smashed this target and decided to up the target to £1,000,000. It's safe to say he smashed that target as well.

Fewer New Businesses Launched Last Year
May 30, 2002
The sluggish U.S. economy and the events of September 11 combined to reduce entrepreneurship in 2001, according to a recent study by Babson College and the Kauffman Center for Entrepreneurial Leadership.
- Just 12 percent of adults were involved in start-ups of new businesses or in a business less than four years old last year -- compared to 17 percent the previous year.
- Among those who launched their own businesses, 89.7 percent elected to quit their current job for self-employment -- while 10.3 percent said they were forced to do so after losing their job.
- Start-up financing, especially from venture capitalists, dried up last year.
- Another factor in the decline was a shift in priorities -- with would-be entrepreneurs deciding to take fewer risks and spend more time with their families.
Historically, entrepreneurship rises in recessions because people leave companies to take advantage of lower start-up costs. That is still happening, the researchers say, though at a lower rate.

AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - The Dutch government said on Thursday that 30,000 chickens had been destroyed after bird flu was identified at a free-range farm near the eastern town of Barneveld.
In a statement, the government said it was still determining the strain of the virus in question, but that it was likely a mild form and not the highly pathogenic strain that struck Dutch farms last year.
Hundreds of thousands of birds were destroyed in response to last year's outbreak, which experts estimated cost the Dutch poultry industry at least 100 million euros.
"Since a low pathogenic H7 (influenza) variant can mutate into a highly pathogenic variant, the affected farm was cleared as quickly as possible" in accordance with European rules, the government said.
The Netherlands is one of the world's largest agricultural producers and its second largest agricultural exporter, selling 79 billion euros worth of goods abroad last year.
With so many farms packed in a small area, disease can spread quickly.
The government imposed a three-week poultry transport ban in a 1 kilometer (O.6 mile) radius of the affected farm, an area that contains 17 other poultry farms.

Brazilian internet freedom activists are nervous. On Wednesday, a committee in the lower house of Congress, the Câmera dos Deputados, will vote on seven proposals ostensibly created to combat cybercrime. Critics argue the combined effect will be to substantially restrict open internet in the country by peeling back the right to anonymity, and providing law enforcement with draconian powers to censor online discourse and examine citizens' personal data without judicial oversight.
The bills are ripped straight from what has become a standard international playbook: Propose legislation to combat cybercrime; invoke child pornography, hackers, organized crime, and even terrorism; then slip in measures that also make it easier to identify critical voices online (often without judicial oversight) and either mute them or throw them in jail for defamation — direct threats to free speech.
Pakistan, Nigeria, Mexico, Kuwait, Kenya, the Philippines, Peru, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar have all seen similar proposals recently. Some were met with strong resistance and got shelved, some are still pending, and others made it into law.
"Cybercrime is one of the recurring excuses for creating overbroad legislation which place controls on internet activity," Katitza Rodriguez, international rights director at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, wrote in an email to The Intercept.

Simulate spray without Combustion
Dear everyone:
I am just newer in field of using Openfoam. Now I need to simulate the spray only without combustion.
I know that there is a solver of dieselFoam for solving the spray but there is combustion.
For me, the first way is to delete the part of combustion from the solver, the second way is through the parameter setting up to exclude the combustion.
Is possible for me to access it through the second way?
If I need to do as the first way, would you like to give me some advice?
Any words from you are valuable.
Thanks and have a nice day!
just go to the combustionProperties-file and write 'off' behind the keyword 'ignition'. In the chemistryProperties-file you can turn off the chemistry in the same way with the keyword 'chemistry'!
I think, that is what you meant with the "second way", right?!
I hope that helps!!
Hey Michal:
Thanks so much for your information. It is the answer I want and it is very helpful for me.
In fact I also have another question is my gas is only composited of air and vapor. which place I could find to set up this parameter? which function or variable in the source represent it?
Thanks agian!
I'm not sure if I'm understanding your question right...
You can define your gas composition in the '0'-directory! For an example look in the AachemBomb tutorial! There is a 'N2'-file and 'O2'-file, which defines that the initial internalField consist of 76.6% N2 and 23.3% O2. This ratio is approximately that of air!
That is the way you define your gasphase!
I hope that helps!!!
Hey Michal:
You are right! It is the answer I would like to get. I am just beginning with the solver. It is possible I will inquire much more.I think you are excellent in using OpenFoam
Thanks and best wishes!
I'm in the beginning with OpenFOAM (dieselFOAM) as well!
But I had the same problems like you...
Take a look at that website: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Contrib_dieselFoam
Maybe it can help you with some other questions!
Cheers, Michael
Hey Michael!
Thanks for your information, it is very helpful for me.
One question is if the components of the air are consisted by N2, O2, H2O, I think I need to add a file of H2O in the folder of 0, what else do I need to do?
Another question is I need to inject one kind of liquid with denity=22.1 kg/m3
particle distributes from 100nm~10mum
I think I need to change the thermoProperties of liquid in the file of thermophysicalProperties,but how to change the coefficient in it ? Is there some idea about this problem?
I think I also need to change the injectProperties, but I don't know how to show the relation between the the inject mass and time, and particle diameter distribution, and velocity.
would you like to give me some idea about it?
Hi flying and anyone who can help,
I am an OpenFOAM newbie and just getting started last week. I wonder whether you have succeeded in your problem. My problem is similar to yours. I am inject water into a room to simulate fire extinguishing system. Should I only need to change the liquidComponents from C7H16 to H2O in the thermophysicalProperties file?

Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) has been established for the treatment of coronary artery disease, especially in and after acute coronary syndromes, and after coronary interventions. Data suggest that a significant percentage of individuals treated with clopidogrel do not receive the expected therapeutic benefit because of a decreased responsiveness of their platelets, which is caused by several extrinsic and intrinsic mechanisms. The clinical consequence of clopidogrel non-responsiveness is severe cardiovascular complications. Besides genetic variability in response to antiplatelet therapy, non-genetic causes such as drug interactions (proton-pump inhibitors, statins, calcium-channel blockers, coumarine derivates, antibiotics, antimycotics) and co-morbidities (diabetes mellitus, renal failure, obesity) are responsible for this phenomenon. Large clinical trials with standardised laboratory methods and hard clinical endpoints are needed to identify these interactions with clopidogrel and predictors for its non-responsiveness.

Original paper
Budgets of nitrogen fluxes in riparian grey alder forests.
Löhmus, Krista; Kuusemets, Valdo; Ivask, Mari; Teiter, Sille; Augustin, Jürgen; Mander, Ülo
Large Rivers Vol. 13 No. 3-4 (2002), p. 321 - 332
30 references
published: Jan 1, 2002
ArtNo. ESP142014103010, Price: 29.00 €
Transects were established on two hillslopes and two study nitrogen budgets in two complex riparian buffer zones receiving different nitrogen loading. In the heavily loaded site the average total-N content decreased from 23 mg l-1 to 3.1 mg l-1 in a 40-years-old riparian grey alder forest (80 % removal). At the site with low loading the average removal of total-N was 48 %. In both transects the budget of N fluxes was established. In the older forest it was estimated as high as 321.1 kg ha-1 yr-1, being 285.3 kg ha-1 yr-1 in the younger one. Considering all inputs and outputs, the N removal efficiency in grey alder stands slows down with increase of age. In the same time, immobilization in soil is increasing. This suggests that grey alder buffer communities should be managed by regeneration cutting and tending to keep their nitrogen removal rate high.

So many albums dropping this month. All the better for us music junkies. Along with the string of local and international expectations, add Danny Brown's Atrocity Exhibition to the packages of 30th September okay? On this laid back cut, Danny flexes flow with K.Dot, Soulo and Earl Sweatshirt. This bell sprinkled and thump-packing number is definitely for the heads. At first I was here for king Kendrick's verse till I heard everyone on the track show up and show out quite well.

text: Neutrons provide a unique tool for the understanding of both surface and deep Earth processes. In the former case, which is dominated by the effects of water, the sensitivity of neutrons to hydrogen allows precise measurements to be made of the structure, synthesis and dynamics of hydrous mineral phases. In the latter case, which utilises the penetrating power of neutrons to study large volume samples coupled with the sensitivity of neutrons to light atoms, the field can be subdivided into either petrophysics, the understanding of the properties of rocks at high temperatures and pressures, or mineral physics, the detailed study of the individual constituent mineral phases. ISIS has been at the forefront in the application of neutrons to both fields with the first ever rock deformation experiments and the first in-situ studies of the ordering of cations into rock-forming minerals being made on Polaris. These early experiments have been extended into detailed studies of the texture and rheological behaviour of complex multicomponent rocks using Gem and Engin-x and studies of the changes in crystal structure of rock-forming silicates with temperature using Hrpd and Polaris, and in pressure, using Pearl.

Hire a Blogger to Promote Your Business
Bloomberg BusinessWeek Interviews CCO Jon Gelberg
Outsourcing all kinds of social media marketing—from writing a company blog to updating Twitter or Facebook is becoming a viable option for small business owners who simply don't have the time or inclination to take on the job themselves. Even some entrepreneurs who prefer to handle their own social media may designate a surrogate—in-house or outside—for when they are on vacation, in case they fall ill, or during busy season.
"There is an incredible need for [small and midsize businesses] to get up to speed on social media and social media best practices," says Jo Lilore, who consults on social media marketing and search engine optimization at WebBizStrategy.com in Pasadena, Calif. "Commerce and the Web in general have gone social, and there's no turning back. If you're not up to speed and in the game, you are not only losing potential leads and customers, you are also missing opportunities."
Jon Gelberg, chief content officer at Blue Fountain Media, a New York Web design and online marketing company, agrees. "Businesses are learning how valuable a well-written blog can be as a tool for branding a company, personalizing a company, and establishing the company or individual executive as an expert in their field," he says. But "a poorly written blog, on the other hand, can have a negative impact."

"Ego is the biggest enemy of humans. "
~ Rig Veda
"I hold three treasures close to my heart.
The first is love;
The next simplicity;
The third, overcoming ego."
~ Lao Tzu
"When I let go of what [I think] I am,
I become what I might be."
~ Lao Tzu
"The foundation of the Buddha's teachings lies in compassion, and the reason for practicing the teachings is to wipe out the persistence of ego, the number-one enemy of compassion."
~ Dalai Lama
"A spark of truth can burn up a mountain of lies. The opposite is also true. The sun of truth remains hidden behind the cloud of self-identification with the body."
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj
Q. What is ego?
A. Ego is what you think you are –
If you don't self-identify with Universal Awareness, Nature or Divinity.
And your body is your ego incarnate.
As you learn what you really are,
you'll change what you think you are –
Until without thinking what you are
or who you are,
You just ARE.

Endurance athletes who eat few carbohydrates burn twice as much fat as with conventional carbohydrate diet, for identical performance by using ketogenic diet which more effective and it will give great outcome.
Do we really eat pasta the night before a marathon? A study published in Metabolism: Clinical and Experimental, seems to go against the dogma of the regime "pasta party", starchy and other carbohydrates for endurance runners: Athletes who follow a ketogenic diet, low in carbohydrates have an oxidation rate much higher fat for equivalent performance.
A ketogenic diet is to reduce intake of carbohydrates, fats and increase sharply, with the consequences that the body draws on its fat stores: the fat is converted to ketones, which can be used by cells as an energy source or as an alternative to glucose. This diet is often accompanied by significant amounts of coconut oil. The effects of the ketogenic diet have been studied for years in the field of health, especially in diseases such as epilepsy, Alzheimer's, cancer, Parkinson …
But recently, this plan has been adopted by a growing number of sports, which therefore undermine traditional pasta, rice and other carbohydrate overload. One can wonder whether this diet does not harm performance.
To find out, a US study has involved 20 endurance runners aged 21 to 45 who were good performances in races of 50 km or more in triathlon. The athletes had similar characteristics regarding their performance, their age, their training and their maximum oxygen capacity (VO2 max). 10 of them were following a diet low in carbohydrates: 10% carbohydrates, 19% protein and 70% fat. The other 10 had a high carbohydrate diet: 59% carbohydrates, 14% protein and 25% fat.
Since it takes weeks for the body adjusts to a ketogenic diet, the average length of the ketogenic diet was 20 weeks. The tests lasted two days. The first day, the athletes ran on a treadmill to determine their maximal oxygen consumption and peak consumption of fats. On the second day, the athletes ran for three hours on a mat in an intensity equal to 64% of their maximum capacity for oxygen.
Results: The peak velocity at which the fat was burned was 1.5 g / min for runners with low carb diet(ketogenic diet), twice more than the others (0.67 g / min). But there was no difference in oxygen consumption, fatigue perceived or energy expenditure. The contribution of fat during exercise was 88% among athletes in low carb diet and 56% for others. The muscle glycogen levels remained similar.
Jeff Volek, lead author and professor at the University of Ohio State, "These low-carb athletes were spectacular fat burners. Their fat burning peak and the amount of fat burned three hours running on a treadmill were considerably higher than the athletes with a high-carbohydrate diet were able to burn. "
This new study suggests that there is a large reserve fat as possible when carbohydrates are lacking and we underestimated the amount of fats that humans can burn. The ketogenic diet and provide an alternative to carbohydrates for endurance athletes. The ketogenic diet is a bit restrictive, but it can be tasty.
The opinion of healthmagazinehouse.com: The idea that a high carbohydrate diet is necessary for good athletic performance has gained popularity in the 60s when it was shown that lack of muscle glycogen was associated with the fatigue and a high carbohydrate diet could maintain muscle glycogen levels and performance. But this model of thinking is changing rapidly.
There are 15 years the "low carb" diets, Atkins-type, have appeared in athletes, then there's ten years have seen many athletes as Novak Djokovic adopt a gluten-free diet , resulting in fact a decrease in carbohydrate intake. More recently, the paleo diet has gained popularity among athletes, a regime that does not prohibit carbohydrates but also leads to consume less.
The ketogenic diet is a new step, since in this case carbohydrates from all sources are greatly reduced. Already experienced there a decade by US Olympic teams, it pierces today. While the carbohydrate regime reigned supreme so far, one can predict that athletes will now have a wide range of dietary preparation methods, ranging from all carbohydrate ketogenic, according to the type of sport, the period of year (preparation or competition), morphotype and of course the food tolerances.
What give migraines dieticians and nutritionists who follow them! healthmagazinehouse.com was the first, for example, reported that the power mode of the All Blacks in rugby, had largely evolved in recent years to accommodate more body fat and less sugar.

Social Question
If you could invent responses to things like burps and sneezes, what would they be?
Asked by MissAusten (16127) February 2nd, 2010
We say "Excuse me" when we burp or pass gas. "Bless you" is the standard response to a sneeze. Some of the responses to this question got me thinking about socially acceptable responses to uncontrollable bodily functions. We all know how we are expected to respond to these things, but if you could change the accepted response, what would you change it to? What would you have people say after burping or sneezing? What do you wish people would say to someone who burps, sneezes, or passes gas?

A teenager in the US has achieved what to some parents would be their worst nightmare - a 440 page mobile phone bill.
13-year-old Reina Hardesty sent 14,528 text messages in the entire month of December, which averages out to be 470 messages a day, at an average of one every two minutes.
The New York Post reported her father's shock at receiving the phone bill.
"First I laughed. I thought 'That's insane, that's impossible'," Greg Hardesty told the Post.
"I thought maybe AT&T had made some mistake on the bill."
Reina and her friends are a part of a core group of "four obsessive texters", who often message each other even at the most unnecessary time. Reina has said she once texted her best friend, who was sitting right next to her at a karaoke party.
She even goes as far as texting her friends to brag about how many texts she has sent that day.
The phone bill could have reached almost $3,000, but fortunately for Reina's parents, her phone plan allows for unlimited texting for US$30 a month.
Reina parents now say she is forbidden from texting after dinner every night.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Camaro Collectibles' started by FlaJunkie, Apr 23, 2012.
How do you tell an original one from a repro?
Any hints/ideas?
I wouldn't think there's that much of a market to justify the expense of a reproduction...But I'd be interested in hearing too if they do.
I think classic industries sells a repop one. I bought one for my 79 off ebay and it was the real deal. Even had the old paper smell to it.
I found a fellow locally that has a stack of them for sale. He found them at a chevy dealer a long time ago. I'll post the link in Auctions and Online Sales.

Dietetic Technician
Do hands-on work to carry out the menu plans of Dietitians.
If you've ever watched the Kentucky Derby, you know that horses and Jockeys are only half the excitement. The other half comes courtesy of the Announcer, known as the Race Caller, whose unique brand of commentary turns a herd of running steeds into a captivating competition for glory.
As a Race Caller, you're a special type of Sportscaster who's paid to narrate races — horse races, auto races, and even running races — for fans, either on track via the PA system or over the airwaves, on radio or TV.
Like other Sportscasters, your job as a Race Caller is to verbally describe sporting events as they happen. Because races happen so quickly, however — the goal, after all, is to win by being faster than everyone else — you've got to be more than an Announcer. You've also got to be an expert, as your duties include identifying race entrants' positions during the race, acknowledging and reporting race entrants' actions and strategies, and calling the times at which race entrants' meet race milestones, such as the quarter- and half-mile marks. All of that requires a keen eye and fluency in the sport.
While the highlight of your job is calling races — you typically call up to 10 races a day — you spend a large portion of your time preparing for them, instead. In the case of a horse race, for instance, you've got to memorize the horses' and Jockeys' names, silks, and colors so that you can easily identify them on the track.
Basically, you're a sports storyteller, telling true tales about racers at racetracks!


text: Guys. Today at work i went into my people app and sent a contact card too a friend. When i done this it went to send it through messages rather than through handcent for whatever reason. either way the friend didn't get the contact card. After this i went into handcent to send a contact and nothing would send. So i tried sending a normal text message and nothing. After half an hour i rebooted phone but still nothing do i decided to turn phone off and take battery and sim card out and then turn back on. This still didnt fix it so i went into manage applications and cleared all cache and data from htc messages app. Again this didn't work but im worried what data i may have deleted now?? 3 hours later and everything was working ok or seeming too however every now and then i got the message sending failed. Ive had full signal throughout this. Whats the problem?? Also when i now recieve a message im getting 2 messag notifications come up one from handcent the other from htc messages app? On another note what cache can i clear?? Ive got astro which allows me too clear thumbnail and internal cache which i do weekly but how can i clear all my application cache at once? and should i clear caches?? Thanks

I found this board on clearance at Homegoods and had to get it. It is bigger than the old one, and I truly love adding to the board so why not increase the size. I painted it with a sample from Sherman Williams. Now this was my first time painting an object with paint. I don't like the satin feel on the wood. There is no luster. Did I do something wrong experts?

Jobs, jobs, jobs. That's the mantra from nearly every elected official these days, from President Obama to Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal. But do government policies really have an impact on job creation? And if so, what should states like Georgia be doing?
Can government create jobs? Certainly, but every dollar spent by government is a dollar taken out of the private economy, where it most likely could be put to better use.
"More focus should be on incentives for people and businesses to invest, produce and work," says Harvard economist Robert Barro. "On the tax side, we should avoid programs that throw money at people and emphasize instead reductions in marginal income-tax rates - especially where these rates are already high and fall on capital income."
In order to improve, it is important to compare yourself with the best. When it comes to job creation, Texas is the leader. The Lone Star State created more than half of all the net new jobs in the United States last year, and more jobs than all other states combined over the past 10 years.
"Did the greater prosperity in states like Texas just happen by chance?" asks the American Legislative Exchange Council. "No. Dozens of academic studies - both old and recent - have discovered nearly irrefutable statistical evidence that high state and local taxes repel jobs and businesses."
So how does Georgia compare with Texas? States have different costs of living and a varied mix of services at the state and local level, so the best comparison is to examine state and local taxes and spending as a percentage of personal income.
Total taxes in Texas take less of the average Texan's income than in Georgia. Georgia ranks 39th in the nation; Texas ranks 46th. In terms of how taxes are structured, the major difference is that Texas does not have an income tax. Georgia's top income tax rate is 6 percent, though Georgia's Tax Reform Council just recommended cutting the rate by a third.
Is the solution more than just low taxes? Some argue that solely focusing on lower taxes is a race to the bottom that sacrifices the quality of other important government services that attract businesses. Instead, they propose more government spending on education, public safety, transportation and other government services.
Texas has a thriving oil and gas industry that Georgia does not. Perhaps this gives them an unfair advantage in tax revenue. But how about spending? Georgia already outspends Texas per capita in most areas: public welfare programs, health care and hospitals, corrections and police and fire services. In K-12 education, the differences are significant. On a per-pupil basis, Texas spends $9,128. Georgia spends $10,971. That's a difference of $1,843 per student. Multiplied by Georgia's 1.6 million students, it totals $3 billion.
Texas outspends Georgia on higher education and transportation. If Georgia spent a similar amount per capita, transportation funding would be $1.9 billion per year higher. By comparison, the Transportation Special-Purpose Local Option Sales Tax legislation to be considered on the ballot next year in Georgia would raise $1.6 billion per year.
Texas certainly has its challenges, including a large budget deficit this year and a high percentage of residents without health insurance. Georgia has these same problems (despite spending more money) and an economy that is much less dynamic than the Texas economy.
The Texas economic development philosophy, according to the Texas Public Policy Foundation's Bill Peacock, is "rather than rely on government payouts to businesses, government spending or government programs to keep the economy growing, Texas tends to rely on economic freedom."
Deal's proposed Competitiveness Council provides an excellent opportunity to focus on economic freedom. Georgia should embrace the Texas model of a pro-growth tax code, regulation that is entrepreneur- and small-business-friendly, limited government and limited government spending, and a fair legal system. The council should examine how to get a better return on investment in health care, education and corrections.
Georgia must leverage its great assets - a high-quality work force, international airport, thriving ports and research universities - so companies will have Georgia on their mind.
• Kelly McCutchen is president of the Georgia Public Policy Foundation, an independent think tank that proposes market-oriented approaches to public policy issues.
