Congratulations mommy! Now that you have filled out all the adoption applications, your child is finally ready to come home with you.
While you may have had a clear idea of how you want your family to grow, even before you brought your kid home, doubts about whether you'll be able to bond well with your child may still linger. You may still wonder what would have been if the child had been your own biological child.
Well, you aren't the only one with this doubt. In fact, almost every family that adopts children harbours the same doubt. While bonding with an adopted child may sometimes be quite natural, it may take a little more time and effort in other cases. Understanding how to make this relationship more fulfilling and loving will help both you and your child feel loved and special.
Tips On How To Bond With Adopted Child:
Did you know that adoptive children and their parents bond as well, and sometimes even better than biological children and parents.
While you may have to work to bond well with your kid, here are some tips on how to strengthen that parent child bond:
1. Give Time:
The quickness with which you bond with your child depends on many factors. One of these important factors is the age of your child.
- If you have adopted an infant, there might be times when the baby kicks up a fuss or not want you at all or even bawl continuously. Understand that this is not your fault.
- Your baby may be finding the environment strange
- The new faces may be difficult for baby to relax and hence the extra fussiness
- Under no circumstances should you force your baby to bond with you.
- Try some gentle soothing techniques like giving the baby a bedtime massage, talking softly, singing rhymes, taking baby out for a walk in a baby stroller
- If you have adopted a toddler, it could be a little tough for him to adjust. Again, this is a phase; remember that this too shall pass.
- A toddler can be very assertive and refuse to listen. Be firm yet gentle.
- Teach them about good and bad behavior. Set limits on acceptable and non acceptable behavior. Even if they are being fussy about it, don't give in and be firm, yet gentle. Remember that you are simply saying no to the unacceptable behavior and not to your toddler as a person
- Set rules and follow a simple yet encouraging practice of rewarding and appreciating

2. Make Time For Reading:
Reading can prove to be a great way of bonding with adopted child and teaching her/him about different things.
- Ensure you maintain a daily reading time , preferably before bedtime
- This together time will give you a chance to snuggle with your baby.
- This simple exercise will help improve your child's vocabulary
- Reading is an effective way of introducing your child to the concept of adoption when she/he gets a bit older.
- Reading will teach your child how to communicate effectively with you, especially if your child or baby is from a different country

3. Communicate:
Keep the channels of communication open and within reach. This simple tip will always help you bond better with your adopted child.
- Talk a lot, whether you are at home or going out
- Talk about your child's surroundings, about family members, culture, traditions, festivals, or any interesting book or event your child may take a liking to
- Your child may not respond earlier, or it may look as if your child is not interested at all. Don't let that disappoint you. Keep up the chat, even if it is one-sided initially.
- Give your child enough chances to reply or add something of his/her own to the conversation
- A good way to involve everyone in the conversation is to have family chat time at the dining table or before everyone goes to bed.

4. Make Your Child Feel Involved:
Involving your child in different matters of the family will immediately give him/her a sense of being included.
- Encourage your child to help in whatever way is age appropriate
- Do tasks together
- Take your child's opinion in simple things such as what to cook for the family dinner or what dress to wear
- If going out on a weekend day trip, give your child a few options and ask which one would be a good choice
- Let your child help you while making food
- If you have a pet at home, let your child help by accompanying you and the pet for walks. If your child is older you can give him/her other responsibilities like feeding or bathing the pet.

Most of you may have some special family traditions or fun everyday things that you can do along with your child. Try and understand what your child likes and try to play to their interests; this simple act will give you more ideas to bond.

Raiatea , is the second largest of the Society Islands, after Tahiti, in French Polynesia. The island is widely regarded as the 'center' of the eastern islands in ancient Polynesia and it is likely that the organised migrations to Hawaii, Aotearoa and other parts of East Polynesia started at Ra'iatea. A traditional name for the island is believed to be Havai'i. Raiatea, meaning "faraway heaven" and "sky with soft light", was first named Havai'i after the homeland of the ancient Polynesians and is the most sacred island in the South Pacific. It's no wonder that the tourism industry has recently begun to promote Raiatea and Tahaa as interesting vacation alternatives to these other more well known cousins of Tahiti- Nui. They are truly some of the last "undiscovered jewels" of Tahiti Polynesia. Raiatea and Taha'a are two islands enclosed in a single barrier reef. Here you can see lush green valleys, cascades, pineapple and vanilla plantations.
The most famous one is the Taputapuatea marae located in Opoa's village. It is considered as the biggest and most sacred of the territory as it was at that time the headquarters of political and religious power of French Polynesia. Raiatea is also the most important nautical base of the Society islands. The lagoon has 11 passes of which the famous Te Ava Piti that allows big boats to reach Uturoa, the island's capital. Raiatea, second economic center of Polynesia, is particularly lively when those luxury cruising boats arrive. On those occasions, the shops on the wharf, as well as the market, offer their best local products.
Finally, for scuba diving lovers, the diversity of the lagoon shared by both Raiatea and Tahaa islands will delight you: coral gardens, caves, drift divings in the passes, discovery of the Nodby's wreck, a Danish schooner of the 19th century located 30 metres deep in the sea.
Lodging on Raiatea
Raiatea's primary resort, he Raiatea Hawaiki Nui offers sunrise views and close proximity to the main town of Uturoa. Only 10 minutes from the airport, the resort features a full service restaurant and 28 bungalows to suit your every choice: lagoonside, overwater, and garden. Only 5 minutes from the airport is the Raiatea Lodge Resort. As a small country hotel it enjoys a very special position, with a beautiful garden in which to lounge, a pool for relaxing, a jetty, a surprising snorkeling spot and easy access to the motu (small island) of Miri Miri with its white-sand beach.
Selling tips
Natural features: many deep bays; a well-preserved spectacular environment (craters, waterfalls); optimum sailing conditions; a navigable river (Fa'aroa) offering novel tours, vanilla plantations. Discover one of the world's rarest plants, the unusual "Tiare Apetahi";
A special underwater world where diversity reigns: coral gardens; caves; drift diving in the many passes; exploration of the Norby shipwreck- a splendid three-master ship that sank in 1900;
Attractive private hotels, family hotels satisfy visitors eager for authentic contact with the islanders and their way of life;

Winter 2016
December 31, 2016
Fred Herbst
2016 was a good year and at the same time a very difficult year for many of us. I was reminded that great art is most often made out of this struggle. Here's to 2017 being an amazing year of artistic production and action! Professionally the fall and early winter were very good. I attended and presented at the international woodfired ceramics conference at Waubonsee Community College in Sugar Grove, Illinois. My piece, Carved Teapot, from the on-campus exhibition was purchased by the college and joins an outstanding permanent collection. My review/report from the conference was published in November by The Log Book. I also had work in two exhibitions at the Worcester Center for Crafts. New work, concepts, and materials continue to develop in my studio and I look forward to exhibiting that work during 2017.
Fall 2016
September 18, 2016
Fred Herbst
A hot, dry summer in New York has finally started to change into the best season here- fall. I have a number of things happening this fall in addition to another academic year of teaching. I have work in group exhibitions at the Krikorian Gallery at the Worcester Center for Crafts in Worcester, Massachusetts and at the Weeks Gallery at Jamestown Community College in Jamestown, New York. I will also be presenting and taking part in pre-conference activities at "Moving Forward", an international conference on woodfired ceramics being held at Waubonsee Community College in Sugar Grove, Illinois.
Domaine de Boisbuchet
May 17, 2016
Fred Herbst
Happy Spring! It's been a rainy, cold spring here in New York and I'm looking forward to summer. In July, I will be returning to France to teach a workshop at the Domaine de Boisbuchet. I will be working with designer Tomoko Azumi and the Corning Museum of Glass for a course titled "Formed by You, Refined by Fire". We will be making ceramics, firing the woodfired kiln, and blowing glass while the kiln is in operation. Full details are here.
Happy 2016
January 10, 2016
Fred Herbst
Happy 2016 everyone! As a busy 2015 closed I started planning another busy year to come. New work and ideas are brewing in the studio, trips are being planned, and a new semester of teaching ceramics, design, and art history is quickly approaching. A very exciting development from 2015 was that I was named to the Board of Directors of the Studio Potter journal. We have been hard at work building a stronger future for the organization and journal. Stay tuned for some events and ways to help this critically important venue for writing on ceramics and craft.
2016 started with a exhibition titled " Variations", showing my work along with that of Rick Love and Rob Beishline at Lane Community College in Eugene, Oregon. We were the jurors for last year's League for Innovation National art exhibition hosted by LCC. The show runs from Jan. 4th to Feb. 11th.

American Craft Magazine
November 24, 2015
Fred Herbst
I was surprised and happy to be mentioned and have work pictured in an article about the collection of Marvin Bjurlin and Christina Rausa in the December/January issue of American Craft magazine. I'm honored to have work in their outstanding collection!
The end of summer 2015
September 20, 2015
Fred Herbst
Sunset over Egg Harbor, WI August 2015
As summer 2015 comes to an end, I wanted to post an update of news, travels, and happenings since my last post. In late spring, I had work in an very popular annual Yunomi Invitational exhibition at AKAR Gallery in Iowa City, Iowa. I still have pieces available here: AKAR Gallery. I also had pieces featured in Crafting Community: SUNY Community College Ceramics Instructors at the Mildred Washington Art Gallery at Dutchess Community College in Poughkeepsie, New York. It was a great group of artists to exhibit with, and it showed the quality of the SUNY art programs across the state.
In July, I traveled with the Corning Museum of Glass to teach a workshop at the Domanie de Boisbuchet in France. This year we worked with London based designer, Philippe Malouin, and a talented group of students who collaborated on woodfired ceramics, glass, and mixed media objects.
On the way home, I got to spend an amazing afternoon and evening in Paris. Each year I go, I fall more in love with that city!
The summer was filled with travel, work, and new adventures. As the fall begins, I'm looking forward to starting a new series of wok in the studio and taking on new responsibilities. In the late spring, I was named to the Board of Directors of The Studio Potter journal. This is a huge honor since I've been reading this important ceramics journal since I started working in clay in 1994. The organization will be starting some major initiatives (including a completely new website) soon to help secure to future of the journal. Stay tuned!
Worcester Pottery Invitational
April 10, 2015
Fred Herbst
I'm excited to be included in this great show coming up at the Worcester Center of Crafts in Worcester, Massachusetts. The Worcester Center for Crafts Pottery Invitational exhibition and sale will be held from Friday Apr. 17 to Sunday Apr. 19. It's an honor to be invited to show with this great line-up of ceramic artists!
Happy 2015
January 12, 2015
Fred Herbst
It's been a cold but good start to the year in the studio. 2015 looks like it will be another busy one including travel back to France. I will also have work in the Worcester Center for Crafts Pottery Invitational and the AKAR Yunomi Invitational, so stay tuned! I hope everyone is having a warm, safe, and peaceful start to 2015.
History in the Making VIII
October 24, 2014
Fred Herbst
I was honored to be asked to jury an exhibition (titled History in the Making VIII) for the Firehouse Gallery in Rochester, New York open now through Nov. 8th. The works in the show have some element of historical reference and came from all over the US. It was great to see the work in person after jurying them from images- nothing compares to the real object! It was even better since two of the pieces were by a former student of mine, Travis Winters, who is currently an artist in residence at the Odyssey Center for Ceramic Arts in Asheville, North Carolina.
Domesticated Fire
September 14, 2014
Fred Herbst
On Sept. 5th, "Domesticated Fire" an invitational group show of wood-fired and salt-fired ceramics, opened at the Firehouse Gallery at the Genesee Center for the Arts in Rochester, New York. My work is on display along with the work of Julie Crosby (NY), Randy Carlson (IL), and Liz Lurie (NY). The show runs until Sept. 27th, 2014

This concise report keeps members well informed on the issues of the day that have the potential to impact both their professional and personal lives.

PMPA Applauds House Passage of Job Training Bill
Washington, D.C. – PMPA applauded the U.S. House of Representatives for passing on September 13, H.R. 5587, the Strengthening Career and Technical Education for the 21st Century Act. This action puts Congress on the path for the first time in more than a decade to reauthorize the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act, which provides federal support to state and local career and technical education (CTE) programs.
"In an election year full of partisan bickering, it is nice to see our lawmakers come together and pass a bill that will support thousands of manufacturing companies across the country and countless of workers," said PMPA Executive Director Bernie Nagle. "The overwhelming majority of PMPA members are facing a critical shortage of qualified workers to run manufacturing equipment that can cost millions of dollars."
The U.S. Department of Labor recently reported that manufacturing job openings hit a fifteen-year high. The August 2016 report showed the number of available positions available across the country increased to 353,000, up from 311,000 in 2015. PMPA believes passing a bill addressing the skills gap, such as CTE reauthorization, will help fill these well paying positions.
"PMPA members are now calling on the Senate to take action and pass a robust bill providing the technical training resources employees and employers need," added Mr. Nagle. "U.S. companies should not be turning away business because they can't find qualified employees; this is why we need Congress to act now."
Attention now shifts to the U.S. Senate, where the Education Committee continues to work on an approach to this bipartisan issue. PMPA hopes lawmakers can quickly reconcile their differences and send a bill to President Obama for his signature before he leaves office.
The Precision Machined Products Association (PMPA) is a national trade association representing over 440 member companies involved in the production of highly engineered, precision machined components used in advanced automotive, aerospace, electrical, construction, and medical technologies PMPA's members include metal producers, machining and manufacturing companies, machine tool builders, and producers of tooling, software and accessories, and metalworking fluids. The precision machining industry is best described by NAICS code 332721, and accounts for over 78,070 jobs with payrolls of $3.6 billion and shipments of over $13.3 billion. The mission of the PMPA is to provide the information, resources and networking opportunities to advance and sustain its members while advocating for manufacturing throughout the United States.

The Woman with a Broken Nose Trailer (2010)
01 September 2010 Drama, Romance 105 mins
The act of a woman with a broken nose, who suddenly jumps out of a taxi and throws herself off the bridge in Belgrade, connects the lives of three witnesses. The suicide attempt becomes the existential catalyst to the misanthropist taxi-driver Gavrilo who tries to avoid any kind of emotional commitment, the school teacher Anica, stubbornly rejecting the attentions of one of her students, and the wacky pharmacist Biljana, who realizes that the man she's about to marry isn't The One. Each of them bears a wound from the past, a trauma they haven't yet found the courage to face. And it's here on the bridge, linking the old city with New Belgrade, that their road to recovery begins. Interwoven story becomes gently optimistic in its philosophy, yet remains credible throughout, deeply rooted in the reality and human nature.

This article provides a quick overview of how to use PERRLA.
A (moving) picture is worth 1,000 words. If you want a quick overview of using the PERRLA software, click here to watch a short tutorial video.
Downloading the software from our website, installing the software on your computer, and the activation process are all covered in other help topics.
The user interface of PERRLA for APA and PERRLA for MLA are so similar that only one tutorial is needed. Here, we're going to show you how to create an APA formatted research paper using PERRLA for APA. Believe it or not, using the PERRLA software is so easy that you don't even need to read a user's manual! By following the text below and reviewing the screen captures, you'll learn the basics in just a few minutes.
Whenever you're ready to write an APA formatted paper, simply double-click the yellow Launch PERRLA pencil on your computer's desktop.
This launches PERRLA into your computer's memory. (Note that you must double-click on the yellow Launch PERRLA pencil to start PERRLA. If you launch Microsoft Word in the usual way - without using the yellow PERRLA pencil - the PERRLA software will not be loaded inside Microsoft Word so you won't have access to the PERRLA menu choices.)
After PERRLA finishes loading, PERRLA will present you with the Welcome tab where you choose if you want to start a new paper or open an existing one. Click the "Start a New APA 6th Edition Paper" button to begin a new paper.
If this is the first time you've used PERRLA, you may see a screen prompting you to Activate.
Now you will see the screen below with your name and institution already in the bottom two boxes. Start typing in the first box. As you type, the 2nd box will automatically fill in the correct information for the running head. You can, of course, change this if you'd like, but PERRLA is entering the information in strict APA format.
When you are done with this box, you simply click the OK button.
And... voila! Your paper is correctly formatted, your title page is filled in, and you're ready to type your paper.
Now you're ready to start typing. This is the beauty of PERRLA. Just start a paper and then start typing. When you're ready for your first citation, the real magic begins. On the screen shown below, we've typed a paragraph, and then selected the Add-Ins tab and Create Citation from the PERRLA menu.
Whether you select Create Citation or Edit References from the PERRLA menu, you'll see a box like the one below. The first tab you'll see is a list of references in this paper. Because this is a new paper, there are no references yet to be displayed. So, at this time, the important button is the one located at the bottom right which is labeled New.
When creating a new citation, the first bit of information needed is the reference type. The Select Reference Type box below makes this easy. Select the type of reference you wish to use by double-clicking it. You will notice that most of the reference types are categories with a plus sign (+) next to them which allows you to expand and open each category to select more specific reference types. For example, if you double-click "Books, Reference Books and Book Chapters", you'll see that you can select "Books", "Reference Books", or "Book Chapters". If you then select "Books", you'll find that there are five specific book reference types to handle cases where there is no author, and two additional subcategories for translated and republished books, etc.
After selecting the appropriate reference type, in this case, "Book - With Author," the PERRLA Reference Wizard will appear, as shown below. You will use this software "wizard" whenever you create a new reference or edit an existing one. The PERRLA Reference Wizard will walk you through creating a reference one step at a time. Note that you are only prompted to enter the information that is required for the specific reference type you chose.
Helpful information will be displayed on the screen for each step, detailing the information that is needed to properly format your reference and citation. When using the Next and Back buttons, you can navigate forward or backwards as needed as you answer each question.
The first thing the wizard prompts you for is the name of the author(s). When entering names of authors, you'll be using the PERRLA "Name Maker". Whether you click in the Author(s) Names field or click the Name Maker button, the PERRLA Name Maker will appear. The Name Maker is a great time saver, and a PERRLA exclusive. Rather than battle through whether the last name is first, which initials go where, and where to put the ampersand, PERRLA takes care of that for you.
Here, we've added the names of two authors. After clicking the OK button to indicate we're finished entering author names, the wizard updates the screen to show the proper APA formatting.
Clicking the Next button to continue, we're presented with the next step. The wizard asks for the Year of publication as shown in the screen below.
After we enter the date, we click the Next button to continue. The next step is to enter the title. The screen below shows the wizard prompting us for the title.
After entering the title and clicking the Next button, the wizard asks if this book is an edition. In this case, we're going to click the No button.
On the next screen, the wizard asks if we are using a printed version of the book. In this case, we're going to click the Yes button. If we had answered No, we would be presented with options related to online resources.
After clicking Yes, the wizard asks if this book is an electronic version of the book (E-Book). In this case, we're going to click the No button.
After answering the wizard questions about the book's edition information, it automatically moves to the next step, prompting us for the Place of Publication.
After entering the place of publication, we click the Next button, and the wizard prompts us to enter the Name of the Publisher. After entering the name of the publishing company and clicking the Next button, the Next button becomes "grayed out" to indicate that there are no more steps required for this reference. If we want to back up and change information entered in a previous step, we can click the Back button. Otherwise, we'll click the Finish button to finish entering this reference.
Okay, we've finished entering this reference, but there's one more thing we have to do. We have to tell the reader where in the publication the cited material can be found. To this end, PERRLA for APA prompts us for the citation location as shown in the screen below.
Here, we've chosen Page Number from the Quotation Location panel and then typed "27" to indicate that the material can be found on page 27. When we click OK, we're done!
The citation will be added to our paper at the point where the cursor is located in your document. See the screen shown below.
Very nice! But something else very interesting has happened behind the scenes; a Reference section has been added automatically as the last page of the document! If we scroll down to look at the last page of our paper, you'll see something that looks similar to this:
If we "zoom out" to see what's been created so far, you'll see that we have a paper that consists of a title page, the body of our document, and a reference page. All perfectly formatted to the APA standard!
Wasn't that easy?!
PERRLA makes it easy to re-use a reference that you've entered previously. You've always been able to cite a reference multiple times in a single paper. But a feature found in PERRLA for APA version 5.1.0 and later allows you to access references that were entered in previous papers.
You can re-use a reference you've previously cited in this paper by selecting it from the list of active references when you click the Create Citation menu choice. Each time you choose Create Citation from the menu, you will be shown all the active references for this paper. You can see the reference we added earlier in the screen below.
To cite this reference again in this paper, simply click on the reference to highlight it, and then click the Select button at the bottom of the form. You won't have to re-enter the reference information; you'll only be prompted for the citation location (page number).
By the way, when PERRLA inserts a previously cited reference into the text, it is smart enough to know the order of that citation within the paper. In APA, that's important because the first and second citations in a paragraph, and even in the whole paper, are formatted differently. PERRLA handles it correctly for you, taking all the guesswork out of formatting your paper!
If you look at the previous screen that shows references for this paper, you'll notice that there is a tab on the form labeled "My Reference Database". Starting with PERRLA for APA version 5.1.0, all references are stored in a reference database on your computer.
By clicking the My Reference Database tab, you are shown a list of all the references in your database, as shown below. To add any of these previously entered references, click on the references to highlight the ones(s) you wish to import, and then click the Select button.
After you click the Select button, the references will be placed in your current paper. The screen below shows that the references have been placed in the list of active references for this paper. Now we can select one of these new references and create a new citation without having to enter the reference again. This is a great time saver!
Note: For papers written before PERRLA for APA version 5.1.0, simply open your old papers using PERRLA, and the old references will be automatically imported into the new reference database! You will then be able to re-use these references in your new papers.
By the way, if you scroll down to the end of your document, you'll see that these imported references were automatically added to the reference section and are correctly listed in alphabetical order, as required by APA.
So, what has PERRLA done for you?

text: Well it had to happen. I've been so careful never to put my evo in a pocket with keys or change or set it face down. I bought a screen guard but took it off because it got scuffed up so easily. Also I saw a video on how hard it is to scratch the evo's glass. I felt safe and for weeks was. Until tonight. I took out my phone to surf the web a bit and there IT was. A big 2 inch scratch top to bottom so deep my fingernail would catch in it if I swiped across it. I was like WTF??! I have NO IDEA what could have caused this. As I said I am very careful. But somehow something very sharp was dragged across my phone very hard. Weird. Again, you would think I would have noticed something like that happening. Ah well, it is a mystery and my pristine phone is no more. Cry a tear with me.

This kind of green capitalism could mean long term jobs for lots of folks, but a sustainable, green economy will not be able to support CEO compensation at the levels of the Reagan-Bush era.
I can live with that.
The Depression is a Perfect Time to Retool the Economy
The predictable results of tax cuts and deregulation are upon us. I think anyone who looks back at the previous two recessions will note that we hit the bottom for employment about 12-14 months into the economic contraction. The current recession started in November or December 2007, yet in January and February 2009 the job loss rate has taken a big jump. We did not hit the bottom of this economic contraction in the 12-14 months, instead it appears that the economic contraction picked up steam at that point. Folks, I don't want to just discourage everyone, but this is an economic crisis that is significantly different from what we have faced in the Post WWII era.
Here is a graph courtesy of The Daily Loaf:
So, bad as this looks, and it does look remarkably bad, this is really good new because that crashing green employment line is a very large number of people who are willing to take a chance on dramatic change. Getting the opportunity to go back to work in a public works type job that is dedicated to the creation of a sustainable economy is not a hard sell today. As it happens, creation of sustainable economies is an absolute necessity in the face of the diminishing resources and existential crisis that has been produces by capitalist economies that are focused on profit and growth and seldom, if ever, have a thought about questions of sustainability.
Time to Stop Logging the Old Growth Forests
Picture is Worth a Thousand Words
Nuff said, I guess.
Monoculture Agriculture Creates Risks
Human beings on this planet may not have a choice about the dominant form of agriculture that feeds us. 6 billion people are difficult to feed with anything other than industrial style, monoculture agricultural processes.
But one of the weaknesses of planting acres of the same plant is that a single pathogen can wipe out large fields of crops in a very short time. The weakness of spraying with chemicals to suppress pathogens is too obvious to discuss. The natural and low cost solution is multiple crop plantings, but you don't see much of that from industrial agriculture.
We face several threats to the world's food supply. One is a push to turn a food supply into a fuel supply in the form of biofuels, another is the possibility of monoculture crop failure from new resistant forms of crop pathogens. This report from Kenya covers a resurgence of an old threat to wheat crops: stem rust. For more information on stem rust, try this site.
There is strength in diversity. This is a biological truth.
This is a Long Term Issue for Civic Planners
I guess there is some justice or karma at work with the conclusions of a recent study that indicates the melting of the Antarctic ice sheet will have unexpected impact on North America.
The solution to global warming is global. The solution is to stop thinking about growth and start thinking about sustainability.
There is an amazing opportunity right now with the collapse of unsustainable economies to promote a global recovery based on sustainable economies.

Well, you are aware of this thing or not, we don't know, but most of the Water Heaters are not energy efficient in nature. To solve this problem, came the Hybrid Water Heater, and it is doing pretty well for the users as well as the environment.
Among all the electronic systems, the water heater is one such product which consumes most of the power. So controlling the energy usage in the heaters will help out in curbing the bill expenses. We will check more on this incredible invention in our article.
What is a Hybrid Water Heater
In a Hybrid Water Heater, the system is capable of cooling or heating up the environment accordingly. This is one of the finest energy saving solutions currently available. The savings are beneficial for your future, and to the coming generation, and relief for your wallet.
Mainly, this hybrid heater is usually a combination of tank and a tankless water heater. Comparing a tank and a tankless water heater, the main difference is related to the storage utility present in the tankless whereas you can store the water in the other.
Talking about the Hybrid Water Heaters, the main feature is that it has got multiple passes in it. Also, there is one small storage space made available in this heater. Thus you won't ever go without water, because of the storage feature.
The hybrid units can be run using gas as well as an electric system. The name Hybrid is said because of the combinations of different technologies in it, and it is always changing in nature. But mainly we can say that the hybrid systems make use of both tankless and the regular water heaters.
The main advantage of installing hybrid unit is that it provides energy efficient solution. And also, it has got zero greenhouse gas emissions.
That's all we wanted to share with you guys in explaining What is a Hybrid Water Heater, and we hope that this short post cleared your doubts. For more interesting info about Water systems, follow us on Water Gadget!

Arsenal's Emmanuel Eboue was sent off at Old Trafford in 2008 for a Nani-esque challenge
In the aftermath of Nani's sending off against Real Madrid, many comparisons were made with Nigel De Jong's infamous challenge in the 2010 World Cup final.
A better example, and one Arsenal fans will remember well, comes from an FA Cup game in 2008 at Old Trafford which the Gunners lost 4-0.
Emmanuel Eboue was sent off for the Gunners, just after half-time, with an almost identical "high" challenge on Patrice Evra, in virtually the same place on the Old Trafford pitch.
In the immediate aftermath of the challenge by the former Arsenal player, Rio Ferdinand was incensed and can clearly be seen urging the referee to take action.
Nani is also one of the players that approaches the referee but before the Manchester United winger can complain, referee Alan Wiley had already flashed his red card.
Sir Alex Ferguson made no complaints at the time and the reaction from Manchester United's players five years ago, specifically Rio Ferdinand, who clapped referee Cuneyt Cakir in the face at full time last night, is rather telling.
Emmanuel Eboue's sending off for Arsenal at Manchester United in 2008 is below, followed by a video show casing Nani's sending off v Real Madrid.

James Cameron Looking at Edius 3D Toolset
- November 20th, 2011
- Posted in 3D . DI Workflow . Digital Cinema . Editing
- Write comment
Broadcast equipment manufacturer Grass Valley has introduced a new 3D toolset for its Edius multiformat nonlinear editing software.
"We see 3D production and post projects increasing around the world," said Charlie Dunn, executive vp products at Grass Valley. "Now anyone working on an Edius system can instantly add 3D post capability to their arsenal of production tools and generate new revenue by expanding their client base."
In September, James Cameron and Vince Pace's Cameron | Pace Group and Grass Valley entered into a strategic alliance aimed at expanding the use of 3D in the broadcast industry through technology development.
As part of the alliance, CPG is currently reviewing the Edius 3D toolset with an eye toward incorporating it into a live 3D workflow, according to the manufacturer.
In December, a 30-day preview of the 3D version of Edius will be available online for testing purposes.

Requiem for a Nut
- First published October 1998.
Castanea dentata. USDA-NRCS PLANTS Database / Britton, N.L., and A. Brown. 1913. An illustrated flora of the northern United States, Canada and the British Possessions. Vol. 1: 615.
"Requiem for a Nut" was first published in the October 1998 issue of "Cliff Notes."
The story of the chestnut blight is from Trees: An Introduction to Trees and Forest Ecology for the Amateur Naturalist, by Laurence C. Walker (Prentice-Hall, 1984). Special thanks as always, too, to the staff of Greenbrook Sanctuary for additional insight.
What the...?
Every now and again we get an almost frantic phone call asking if we know what on earth that plant with the "really big leaves" is. They are usually noticed along Henry Hudson Drive. "I mean," the caller will exclaim, "they're gigantic!" And indeed they are, often a good two feet long and almost as wide—something you'd expect to see a brontosaur munching on.
The culprit is invariably the Paulownia tree (P. tomentosa), a native of China which, over the past decades, has gained a solid foothold here in the Palisades (this is the same tree whose fragrant lavender flowers frost the cliffs so prettily in the Spring). In all likelihood, our Paulownias descend from someone's cliff-top estate, planted perhaps a century ago as ornamentals. They've come to thrive in our rugged environment, often displacing native vegetation. (Whether they benefit or harm the "natural" habitat here remains a subject of debate.)
The trees grow to about 60 feet tall, but the biggest leaves occur on the youngest trees (this is typical of most trees). The Paulownia, as a by-the-way, was named in 1835 to honor Anna Pavlona, daughter of Paul I of Russia, and it is sometimes referred to as "The Empress Tree." In its native Orient, its soft wood is valued as building material for crates and boxes, including caskets. Such use has yet to catch on here.
Several of our readers have brought an interesting part of the chestnut story to our attention. In a number of laboratories across the country, efforts are underway to develop a strain of C. dentata resistant to the fungus, and preliminary results are promising. At the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga and elsewhere, scientists have met some success in crossbreeding the American chestnut with a blight-resistant Chinese chestnut. Thus far, the efforts show the potential for a blight-resistant tree whose nut is, apparently, every bit as delicious as that of the original American tree, and scientists are guardedly hopeful that the trees can be reintroduced to the wild.
Researchers at the State University of New York's College of Environmental Science and Forestry in Syracuse, meanwhile, have been working in even more esoteric realms, experimenting with animal genes in the hope of producing a blight-resistant chestnut tree (the African clawed frog has so far proved most promising). They have now been able to use a gene transfer process to produce dozens of "transformed" chestnut shoots in Petri dishes, and the next obstacle is to plant the shoots and see if they can be grown into saplings. They hope to be able to accomplish this by the end of this year.
Our thanks to John Reutershan of the Bronx and Ron Keeney of Teaneck for alerting us to these developments, and to Milt Nelsen of Granville, NY, for sending along a news clipping.
Imperial "Peanuts"?
Our thanks to Fred Binder for tracking us down with a new theory for the local origins of the Asian Paulownia, or "Empress tree," now so widespread here. It seems a century ago the Paulownia's seed pods were used as packing material, much as today we use those little Styrofoam "peanuts." So rather than starting as ornamentals planted on a cliff-top estate — did they gain their toehold by way of someone's trash pile…?
"With Blue Sky Above and the majestic Hudson Below … A glorious confusion of color — yellow and orange, scarlet and crimson, intermingled with the eternal green of the hemlock and fir — and above all, a line of perpendicular gray cliffs, standing out against a deep blue sky! Thus at this season of the year appear the Palisades, robed in the glory of Autumnal foliage, while the majestic Hudson — a dreamy haze hanging over its bosom — flows silently past their base on its way to the sea…"
So wrote the New York Recorder in October, 1893. And while we may find the prose a bit overblown, the description still strikes us as quite apt of this most enchanting time of year, when our tall cliffs and their tenacious forests never seem more wildly picturesque.
It may be tempting, then, to suppose that here, at least, a piece of New Jersey's woodlands has been preserved as it has stood for centuries untold, a sliver of the Forest Primeval just as Henry Hudson came upon in 1609. Tempting — but extravagantly unrealistic. For in truth the forest world is a dynamic one, and even in those places we assume to be relatively "pristine," dramatic changes have occurred over the centuries — changes now vastly accelerated by human activity.
No tale, we feel, brings this truth closer to home than that of the American chestnut, Castanea dentata.
At the time of Hudson's visit, this cousin of the oak was in all likelihood the dominant tree of the Palisades — as it was for much of the Eastern Seaboard, thriving in acid upland soils from New England to Alabama. (In the Appalachian Mountains, it is believed that as many as one in every four trees was an American chestnut.) The chestnut was a blessing to the settlers who followed Hudson, its delicious nuts soon a dietary staple. Its bark was stripped and used for roofing. Boards hewn from its straight trunks and limbs were found to season well and take to gluing and nailing without warping or shrinking. A fast growing tree — one of the reasons it was so successful — it could be harvested with little threat of being wiped out. Hard and lightweight, it was easily worked, with the finished product taking a high polish, making it a favorite for furniture stock, while its graceful form shaded innumerable courthouse lawns. Perhaps best of all, its wood was famously resistant to rot, ideal for fence posts and, later, railroad ties. By the mid-nineteenth century, it had become one of the most important trees economically in North America. (Besides its other virtues, its bark and wood were rich in tannic acid, essential for leather-making, and the chestnut became a mainstay of the American leather industry. Wood pulp, a by-product of tannin extraction, made it a mainstay of the burgeoning paper industry as well, resulting in an often complex, interdependent relationship between the two industries.)
And none of this even hints at C. dentata's ecological importance to our native forests. In this ancient world, the fast growing, resilient tree with its nutritious fruit was no less a mainstay, in many ways defining the forests in which it grew. (The term "chestnut-oak forest" gets repeated time and again in the descriptions written by naturalists of a century ago.) To say this tree was an integral part of the forest habitat here in the East is, surely, grossly to understate matters.
No wonder, then, that around 1904 and starting here in the New York region, not even professional naturalists seemed to recognize how momentous a tragedy was underway, as the first chestnut trees began to die.
A forester named Herman W. Merkel noticed something wrong with the chestnuts on the grounds of the Bronx Zoo in that year. Cankers had formed on their trunks, encircling them. The cankers were soon to kill the trees above the point of infection. Mycologists in the New York Botanical Garden identified the culprit as a previously unknown fungus, to which they gave the name Endothia parasitica. Still, E. parasitica was at that point seen as an interesting but relatively unimportant event, a topic for specialists to discuss. Even as the blight spread into neighboring states, scientists were slow to recognize the potential enormity of the disaster, and it was not until 1911 that funds were first appropriated — $5,000 by the U.S. Congress — to combat the problem.
By then trees in Philadelphia had begun to die.
The following year Congress upped its appropriation to $80,000, and in 1913 the Pennsylvania legislature would itself weigh in with an appropriation of $240,000 and the creation of a Chestnut Tree Blight Commission. This was an impressive outlay in the dollars of the time, and a strong course of action for a state to take on behalf of a tree.
Unfortunately, it was already too late.
That same year, botanists working in China found the blight on chestnut trees "9 days by bullock cart northeast of Peking." This seemed to confirm what the Blight Commission had come already to suspect, that the disease had originated in the Orient, most likely arriving in New York Harbor with a shipment of nursery stock from China. But how had it spread so quickly? Certainly, its spores could be carried by the wind, perhaps as far as half a mile on a dry, gusty day. Yet that could hardly account for its spread across hundreds of miles in a few short years.
E. parasitica, it turned out, had two kinds of spores, the smaller of these having the more effective mode of travel. These had thin, gelatinous threads attached to them, and they stuck by the thousands to the feet of birds. (As many as seven thousand were counted on the feet of a single woodpecker.) At last the sobering magnitude of the disaster became apparent: not a single chestnut tree in North America could be considered safe.
By the end of the World War I, the North American "chestnut-oak forest" was a standing graveyard, the dead trunks, in a macabre testament to their famed tenacity, still upright, their wood to be harvested for decades to come. (Much of the wood in the structures built by the New Deal agencies during the 1930s here in the park was chestnut taken from the standing dead on the Palisades.) Fence posts and railroad ties, some cut a century or more ago, are still sought by craftsmen and builders to this day.
Here on the Palisades, a handful of adult chestnut trees still survive (a large specimen only succumbed in Greenbrook Sanctuary about five years ago). Sadly, their fruit remains infertile. Saplings sometimes spring from the stumps of former giants; almost invariably, they soon contract the blight and die.
Extinction is, as they say, as old as the hills. And if, as they also say, there are a million stories in the naked city, then there may be a million more in the leaf-clad world of the forest, where life and death and change are the endless norms. The forest habitat has always been a dynamic one — only the pace has picked up some in recent centuries. The story of the American chestnut is a particularly dramatic example of an ongoing theme in our modern world, as we bring the four corners of the globe into ever closer contact. (The "eternal green" of our hemlock groves has also begun to whither and fade in recent years, another blight brought to this continent from afar.) And as in the case of "natural" extinction, of course, new species are always ready to fill the proverbial vacuum so abhorred by nature (see related story, below).
Certainly, we don't mean to put a damper on anyone's enjoyment of fall, a time of year when we tend to notice trees more than at any other—for in the appreciation of nature may begin the road to its preservation. Nor do we offer any handy, pat solutions for the kinds of issues raised by the tale of the chestnut. But as stewards of a "natural" preserve, neither can we safely ignore such tales, as they continue to have a direct bearing on the land in our care. Certain tales of the forest, we feel — even sad ones — should be told.

Customs and Border Protection has a contingency plan in its 2016 budget request to spend up to $134.5 million "to provide the necessary support activities" in the event of a future influx of unaccompanied illegal immigrant youths.
In written testimony for a House Appropriations subcommittee hearing on the CBP budget request, CBP Commissioner R. Gil Kerlikowske highlighted last year's surge in apprehensions of unaccompanied minors and family units illegally entering the U.S.
"The surge peaked in June, with over 10,000 [unaccompanied children] encountered by the Border Patrol. By the end of FY 2014, the Border Patrol had encountered 68,631 UCs and 68,684 family units; a dramatic increase compared to FY 2013 when the Border Patrol encountered a total of 38,833 unaccompanied children and 15,056 family units nationwide," he explained in testimony.
The 2014 surge, of largely Central American migrants, strained government resources, resulted in a multi-agency response and saw more than 53,500 undocumented youths released to sponsors in the U.S.

Colm O'Rourke: Replay skirmish just the beginning of Tyrone's long war
The GAA family is remarkably resilient. Despite the competition from, and great interest in, the European Championships from a broad sporting public, the television viewing figures for Gaelic football and hurling matches have held up. Add in that the football championship has been an ongoing bore and it is amazing to consider that so many followers live in a constant state of optimism. They seem to believe that the next match will be the one to banish the dark clouds.
If the GAA was a product being sold on the supermarket shelves marketing companies would be waxing lyrical about brand loyalty. What this reflects is that the GAA has the potential to be considerably bigger as long as a properly organised fixtures schedule can be worked out.
Just think about the huge interest and indeed appetite for games there is in many of the lesser populated counties. Leitrim, or Fermanagh, or Roscommon even, are like Iceland at the Euros - the percentage of their population who support their team is much greater than for Kerry or Dublin or Mayo. Imagine if they could see their team in Croke Park and had a chance of winning something.
Yet while all of this goes on Ulster says Yes to Europe but absolutely No to any deal that might see their provincial semi-finals on television. And as for co-operating with the rest of the GAA so the Qualifiers can be run properly, well they gave an impolite two-finger salute on that score too.
Consistency in an ever-changing world. It is such a pity that they rail against the rest of the country; they are the equivalent of the Amish community without the beards. Putting at least one of this weekend's replays on live television would have been a boost to the whole championship - one that is badly needed as we all know. Whatever one thinks of the Ulster Championship, at least Donegal versus Monaghan last night and Tyrone versus Cavan this afternoon are a real test of the collective wills of the players involved. As we saw in both drawn games, this is a test they really stood up to admirably. That is what people want to see, even if there are blanket defences and loads of handpassing. At least there is competition, hard competition.

Tyrone let Cavan off the hook the first day. While we can extol the fighting spirit of Cavan, the fact remains that Tyrone had better players overall in that game, played better football, had more possession and created far more scoring chances. Cavan got goals as opposed to creating them but the real problem they had was with raising the white flag. Scoring seven in a championship match is not nearly enough, in fact double that amount would be seen as a minimum for winning big games. Strip away the goals and Cavan looked a moderate outfit.
So they are a long way off being a serious team even if they did earn a draw in the end. Their reliance on a few players like Cian Mackey, Martin Reilly and Dara McVeety only served to demonstrate how short they are of talent to compete at the very top. Killian Clarke, Gearóid McKiernan and Seánie Johnston did not feature and without big performances from them they are going nowhere. It would be surprising if Johnston even started today. Tyrone have done something of a number on him in their last two games and it won't change today either. The only other Cavan player who shaped well was David Givney but he was left isolated far too often. He needs a player or two close to him and Cavan today need to ensure that he is not left on his own with three Tyrone defenders on him.
In many respects Tyrone exposed Cavan in the drawn match. Their system of play is better and when it comes down to it they have better individual players with more big-game experience. This was most evident in the second half. Cavan, through sheer hard work, discipline and flat-out effort, papered over the cracks for a long time but as bodies tired class took over. That was in the shape of Colm Cavanagh, Tiernan McCann, Ronan O'Neill and Peter Harte.
Today will follow a similar pattern. Cavan will start at 100 miles an hour and will really get stuck in. It will throw Tyrone off their game for quite a while but Tyrone are no shrinking violets and will hang in until there is time and room. Then they will outplay Cavan as they did in the drawn game. The best chance for Cavan is to go for goals again but lightning generally does not strike twice where Tyrone are concerned.
This game will be good for Mickey Harte's team in their quest to have all avenues of attack closed off for future purposes. Cavan may play as well as the drawn game but still lose by five or six. This is part of the long war for Tyrone and today is only the beginning.
Elsewhere, the traders in Killarney must be hopping mad with the Cork players for losing their Munster football semi-final to Tipperary and denying them another bonanza. They might as well dump on the Cork players like everyone else. I feel sorry for them as there is a prestige in playing for your county; in Cork every player would keep their hand down rather than volunteer that information as it would be greeted with either mirth or disdain.
At least the traders had the Ring of Kerry cycle yesterday so the ale houses and eateries were still ticking over but Cork provided the cream on this weekend. They come early, drink a lot, eat a little and go home quietly after being beaten. How could you have better neighbours?
Tipperary have taken their place and the crowd will be well down. If it breaks 20,000 then it will not be a complete disaster from the Munster Council's point of view.
Read more: Preparing to be serious challengers
Tipperary need make no apologies for spoiling the party and if they and others could do it on a regular basis then football would be all the better. For it to happen this year was quite surprising, however, as Tipperary have had plenty of well-documented problems with injuries and the unavailability of players. In fact, it looked like a possible golden generation of young talent was going to be lost. Perhaps playing senior football for Tipperary may become popular again and progress could be made through the league next year.
Eamonn Fitzmaurice now finds himself on the horns of a dilemma. The league team are not up to it and having invested his support and confidence in Aidan O'Mahony and Marc ó Sé, he must decide to stick or twist as his selection today will tell us the pecking order for later in the year. This is not in any way insulting to Tipperary; in Munster Kerry play the long game with everyone and the reality is that until they hit the bearpit in August for the quarter-final there is a distinct lack of serious football.
The questions asked today are different for both teams. Tipperary want a performance on the day while every Kerry player is being scrutinised on the basis of how he would potentially fare in Croke Park.
At the same time Kerry will want to show their supporters that after an autumn and spring of discontent there is better to come. I would not hold my breath on that one but at least today Kerry should be able to get their ducks in a row.

How Does the Council Deal with Barking Complaints?
Due to the extensive resources needed to deal with individual barking dogs, Council's policy is to advise the dog's owner that a complaint has been received and to send them an information package which should assist in addressing the problem.
Council staff will include their street on regular dog patrols to assess the situation. The person who lodged the complaint is advised of this action and it is recommended that they contact the dog owner to discuss the matter. Other options open to the complaints include contacting; "Barking Solutions" Phone: 1902 220 221 or take civil action against the owner of the barking dog.
