10 Tips For Living A Simple Life
New Greener Family
Summer is a great time to try out living a simpler life. Things are slower, schedules are looser and you have time to reflect on the lifestyle you're living. Check out some tips for how to live a simpler life after the jump.
Over at New Greener Family they have put together 10 fantastic tips for living a simple life. Check out the first three:
I could have made a huge list of steps, because goodness knows there are a lot of ways to simplify your life. But for the sake of simplicity I purged it down to the top ten. In no particular order, here are my 10 steps to live a simple life:
- Purge things you do not need and use. If it has been sitting in a box for weeks, months, or even years get rid of it. If it sets gathering dust on a shelf, get rid of it. If it doesn't fit, get rid of it.
- Put a limit on media. That means TV, computer, and even your cellphone. The fewer electronics you use, the simpler things will be.
- Create a routine. From a cleaning routine to a work routine, setting a specific schedule and sticking to it will make things far more simple than jumping around haphazardly.
Check out the rest of the list at New Greener Family.

How idiotic and consumer-oriented to suggest something that's been in a box for *gasp* is useless to you and should be gotten rid of.
Seasonal changes alone necessitate either buying anew each year or having the foresight to realize that storage is not always wasteful. It's not green to ignore that.
Wrong josiedaisy. It's about paying attention to things that never come out of the box.
It's called doing with less, so you have to store and maintain less.
Of course you keep the seasonal stuff. No one is telling Colorado folks to ditch the featherbed in July.
Oh Josie, you took the box thing out of context, the first sentance in that point states that "you not need and use". Now if you have something in a box that you need and likely to use, keep it. If not, give it to someone who can give it the love it deserves.
I know what they are getting at with number 2, less mindless surfing on the net, chatting etc but for my own life, I respectfully differ. I use my computer daily to write which may not make my life simpler but enriches it. Is also invaluable in the workplace. Also, the synching calendars, appointments on my iphone has ended the "missed meetingitis" as the shopping list has ended the "drove all the way to town and forgot to buy amnesia". Tech is so ingrained in my life and that is positive.
I just think the emphasis on many green sites on either buying cool new green stuff or mixing up tips on de-cluttering for actual "green lifestyle" is kind of sad.
Eat everything in your pantry and stop shopping for the 'pending famine!!'
My mate is in the middle of a de-clutter, she always had the mind set that half of her (rather large) family were going to call and stay at the drop of a hat so she had food for 3 months and bed linen for about 10 beds (plus changes of linen!!!).
I hear you Josie. I think Re-Nest should have posted the entire list, not just the top three. Taken out of context, it's difficult to see how the article relates to green living. I did read the entire list on "New Greener Family" and in its entirety it focuses having less posessions including holding onto stuff and limits on buying new. Simplifying your "inventory" can mean a smaller home for some. Purging and giving something away that will just languish in your closet but that someone else may need and can reuse may reduce the recepient from buying new.
This list is the same one seen everywhere...no news here. Gee...WRONG yourself Heidi! I think that the definition of "need" would set many of us off. Do I need the collection of movie/concert stubs or is that just trash? The problem with this list is that for some of you (like peacenik or Heidi) it works. The list doesn't help me. It's that simple. It is the same list I see over and over and listening to a show about life brings up to me what it wrong with that list/advice- it hasn't evolved.
Wow. Heated. I feel this discussion would be simpler if everyone just took what they found useful from the list and disregarded what doesn't work for them. You'll be hard pressed to find any "10 Things..." list that works for everyone in its entirety.
I'll add an eleventh tip: Don't sweat the small stuff...
(Nice post, thehalfie.)

Non Exempt Staff Recruitment
Please contact the Human Resources Office - Employment at x6236 if you have any questions.
Posting a position
- Notify the HR Employment Manager as soon as any vacancy is known, whether a newly created position or as a result of a termination.
- If the vacant position is the result of a termination, HR must receive the terminating employee's letter of resignation and leave calendar prior to posting the position.
- HR will e-mail the current job description to the supervisor to review and update. HR will create the position announcement and send to the supervisor for final review.
- If an existing position changes significantly, it will require review by HR for proper pay band classification. A position may be posted with the band "pending" at the discretion of the HR Director. If some duties have been delegated to another position, then that job description should be updated as well.
- Prior to posting a position, the position's budget must be reviewed by the department and HR. Any concerns must be addressed and necessary budget requests approved in advance of posting.
- Once the position and budget are finalized, HR will post the announcement on the "Employment Opportunities" web site. HR may also fund an online ad on the Gazette (Springsjobs.com) and other advertising as approved by the HR Director.
Accepting applications and Interviewing
- All non-exempt support staff positions require a CC application to be completed online on the Human Resource website under Employment Opportunities.
- The Employment Manager will assist supervisors with the online application process.
- Supervisors should begin interviewing applicants as soon as possible. Delaying the interview process may adversely affect the availability of qualified applicants.
- It is appropriate to respond to inquiries about salary and share the minimum rate of pay however, no salary or employment offer may be made at this time.
- Nonexempt staff searches are not required to form search committees. However, the hiring supervisor may utilize other staff members in the department/division to assist with interviews provided the same process is followed consistently for every applicant.
- Develop a list of questions to be asked of every finalist and forward a copy to HR for the official recruitment file. Document each candidate's response - if not during, then immediately following the interview. Keep notes but don't write on the application itself.
Checking references
- The hiring supervisor should personally contact references for the finalists. HR recommends first contacting current or former supervisors (from the work history section of the application) and then the professional references listed on the application.
- Two thorough reference checks, using the Telephone Reference Check Form are required before requesting approval to hire. Where detailed information was not available and all attempts have been made, record the name of the person you spoke with and the information they were able to verify.
The Hiring Decision
- The hiring supervisor is to consult with his or her department/division head for review and approval of the hiring recommedation.
- Once senior level approval is obtained, the department informs HR of the desired candidate and recommends a salary and start date. All of the reference checks and other search documentation are to be returned to HR at this time.
- If the salary recommendation is above the minimum for the pay grade, the supervisor must provide information to support the requested hourly rate. The HR Director shall make the final decision regarding starting salary. If the salary to be offered exceeds the amount budgeted for the position, the department must identify available funds from within the same department and/or division. If division funds are not available, the division head may request HR approve funding from the contingency accounts in consultation with the Controller and Vice President for Business & Finance.
Making the Employment Offer
- HR will contact the candidate tooffer employment and notify the supervisor of acceptance.
- If the offer is accepted, the supervisor contacts the new employee toprovide more detailed information regarding the position expectations and work environment.
- If the candidate refuses the initial offer because of salary, the HR Director may authorize a counter offer. If the candidate ultimately declines the College's offer, the supervisor must be prepared to go back to the pool and either select a second choice candidate, begin interviewing additional applicants, or re-advertise the position.
- Once the candidate has accepted the offer, HR will mail an employment letter to the new employeeproviding details of the new job such as start date, hourly salary, pay grade, direct supervisor, and benefit eligibility date.
Beginning Employment
- The new employee must report to HR on the first day of work and complete new hire paperwork.
- An orientation session will be scheduled as soon as possible after the new employee starts at CC. The orientation covers information on benefits and the Staff Employee Handbook.
- The department is responsible for making sure the new employee receives a parking hang-tag, Gold Card, and any necessary keys from Facilities Services. The direct supervisor should also provide specific information about the department/division.
- Within the new employee's first 90 days, a Staff Performance Appraisal form is to be completed by the supervisor and returned to HR for placement in the new employee's personnel file. Please monitor the new staff member's performance during this review period and provide honest feedback on an ongoing basis. Requests to extend this evaluation period are to be made to the Director of Human Resources and require a detailed plan to address any perceived performance issues.

Car Free Day: mini-mission
Because my recent post about driving less received so much positive feedback and interest, I thought it fitting that the next mini-mission be about your car.
Park It – This mini-mission is a commitment to drive less. Choose one day during the week and don't drive. You may have to arrange your week differently to carpool, ride your bike or take public transportation.
On my first official car free day, I decided to stay home. I worked from home all day, and made an effort not to leave the house in my car. There always seems to be a reason to "run out". Today, my daughter wanted to go to the pool with friends and instead of driving her, she rode her bike. When I was making lunch, I realized I was out of my favorite veggie-burger buns and instead of running out to the store, I ate something different.
Challenge yourself to stay out of your car one day a week. The planet will thank you and so will your wallet.

Courtney, I went car-free today too! I try to work from home at least two days per week. It feels great to have the gas tank stay fuller longer.
Happy Fourth of July!
Hey Courtney, tomorrow I'm going car-free! I love your mini-missions. For some reason, I was not a subscriber to your terrific site, but I have just remedied that. I think it's because I come here often from twitter links. Regardless, it's great to be following your blog. All the best.
I've been combining errands and limiting trips out of the house for years, but I could be doing a lot more.
I try to make one tank of gas last one week (remember that I live 30 miles from the city I call home and 9 miles from anywhere plus my bookselling business requires some driving around), but my tank didn't last all week this week.
I wonder sometimes if half as many trips would make life twice as good.
Courtney – millions of people go car free every day in New York City! And we take public transport every day!
Seriously, owning a car in a big city is more trouble than not owning one. Maybe we should have Car Days where we get to drive once a month…
Well seeing as I have not owned a car in over 6-7 years…I am all set with this mission.
I started out reading this post thinking about how difficult it would be to go car-less in my city, as we have really bad public transportation options. But then I realized that I already go car-less at least once a week – either by working at home on a weekday or being a homebody on the weekend! I love that one of the benefits of staying home like that is that I also don't spend money on fast food or needless shopping (Target is my downfall!). Big win
I only fill up once a month, so its great! Most of our amenities are a ways away, so I try hard to combine trips or ask my husband to stop on his way home from work. It does make a big difference.
It really helps that I hate shopping AND I hate driving!
I am totally amazed that people in North America make such a big deal out of being car free, like it is some sacrifice. Having lived in France for a number of years, NOT having a car is no big deal. No one drives, or very rarely if they do. Now that I am back in North America, I have made a choice to remain carless.
If you want to make your carless day have more impact on your life… get out of the house and live your life. Staying at home on a car free day, to my way of thinking, is cheating. Sorry no kudos to those who chose to stay home, you missed the whole point of a car free day.
However, most Americans in small cities don't have the public transportation infrastructure that you were used to in France. Even worse, most cities here aren't built in a pedestrian-friendly manner. Suburban sprawl worsens the impact on attempting to be car-free.
I bicycled to work for a year, but the roads were full of obstacles and drivers were full of distraction! Perhaps I'll try again, though.
There are places where people live that a car is required, I live out in the country. Town is not far 1.5 miles but to shop for groceries that are priced reasionable is a 7 mile drive. Always we don't go out unless there is not another option. We group trips shoping and errands, it is called planning ahead. We typically go out on Thursdays for errands and grocerys, our Doctor is 32 miles away, in the event of the appoiintments we do our shopping in the bigger town that has a Wal-Mart. Our son has his car for school. Not that he couldn't ride the bus however he has several activitys that would require a round trip for us any way so if he drives himself I know he gets home with out a phone call, I don't have to drop and run.. So when some brag about being carless and it being no-big-deal. Location has every thing to do with it. Just don't look down on those who have cars. My college age kiddo has been in school for 5 years with out a car and one year was in Japan she too loves being Car free, however when she is up here she is glad to have wheels. When you have cars you take the best care of them to keep your gas milage high and emmisions low. Some places a car is not a no big deal but rather a very big deal. Living up here in God's country having Lake Huron to look at from the end of my drive and having the woods surround me. Is a trade off I am willing to make. A car free day is often here. We have lots to do at home and it is a life style that is what we choose.
living in rural Australia means that a car is an essential item, public transport is non-existent. However, we plan to retire to the big smoke in the next year or so. I am having a great deal of trouble convincing my other half that owning a vehicle will be quite unnecessary.

As a Software Engineer myself, I'll say that it usually isn't that the people push for faster time to market want that product to suck.
Usually the conversation goes:
CEO: "We want an impossible timeframe"
Grunts: "That's impossible, it'll suck if we do that"
CEO: "Well then I'll give you more resources, and you need to get it done faster then you want to."
Grunts: "Looks like I am screwed, but at least more people are involved."
And then you get a compromise between absolute crap and perfection.
Although this is a lot of QQ over some really minor stuff. Remember when ZA came out, and effing NOTHING worked? Jesus, at least my mods still functioned.

I've had these conversations so often that I have a standard response:
Execs: "We want an impossible time frame"
Me: "That's impossible, it'll suck if we do that"
Execs: "Well then I'll give you more resources, and you need to get it done faster then you want to."
Execs: "More resources, huh? Well, I'm sure sure when two women can give birth to one baby in 4.5 months this approach will finally be validated."

Croatia Votes to Join the EU
Last week, Croatia held a public referendum asking citizens if they wanted to join the European Union. By a nearly two-to-one margin, the answer was yes, with approximately 47% eligible voters turning out. While numbers like that wouldn't seem out of the ordinary in America, it's actually pretty low by European standards. Regardless of the low turn out, it could potentially pave the way for other countries in the Balkans who someday hope to join.

A word or set of words used to indicate danger in a covert operation
[by Stratadrake] Volunteering to manage this YKTTW; it'll solve some of the misuse issues for Something They Would Never Say.
Any memorized code word, phrase, or action dropped into a message or conversation to secretly convey a distress call without unwanted or eavesdropping parties realizing it. This is an important skill for undercover operatives (detectives and spies, say), who can't just "call for backup" if they get into trouble because it'll blow their cover (possibly with a bullet to the head). For obvious reasons a good covert distress code should be easy to remember, but it should also be easy to work into an ordinary conversation without sounding suspicious, like Spy Speak -- but it can't be something that the character might wind up saying coincidentally in ordinary conversations. For cases where the hidden distress code has been improvised on the spot -- in which even the intended recipient may fail to notice it until later -- see Out-of-Character Alert. Compare Trust Password, which is typically used to provide a sense of safety as opposed to warning about danger. See also Duress code for the Real Life term for this concept.

Great apes go through mid-life crisis
They may not take up surfing or start second careers as cupcake-makers, but chimpanzees and orangutans seem to go through a 'mid-life crisis', just like humans.
A study of 508 great apes in captivity shows that the animals' sense of well-being bottoms out in their late 20s to mid-30s, the ape equivalent of middle age, before rebounding in old age.
The finding that mid-life crises may not be uniquely human suggests that the events might have a biological, rather than a sociological, cause.
Men and women worldwide, regardless of their wealth or status, experience a dip in happiness at middle-age, generally defined as from the mid-30s to late 50s. Despite this universality, social scientists have struggled to identify the underlying cause of the dissatisfaction. Social and economic factors, such as financial hardship and the failure to realize unrealistic ambitions, are possible causes.
Alexander Weiss, a psychologist at the University of Edinburgh, UK, and his team set out to see if there might be a biological factor involved in the crises. They sought to assess the well-being of captive chimpanzees and orangutans as judged by their keepers or those who knew them well.
The apes covered all age ranges, and their 'happiness' was rated through a survey answered by their keepers. The survey covered four criteria: the animals' overall mood; how much pleasure they got out of socializing; their success in achieving goals such as obtaining food and objects they desire; and how happy the keeper would be if he or she were that animal for a week.
The survey is admittedly anthropomorphic, says Weiss, but he adds that it is easy for someone who spends a lot of time with an ape to gauge its mood. Moreover, his previous work shows that the measure of well-being is consistent when measured by different caretakers, and is based, in part, on inherited genetic factors.
Among three different groups of chimps and orangutans surveyed, the happiest tended to be the oldest and youngest, and the most dissatisfied tended to be in their 30s. The study, however, is a snapshot — it didn't follow any of the apes over time — which means there could be confounding factors such as the early death of unhappy apes. Nonetheless, Weiss believes the results offer a true picture.

Not sure if you forgot to mention it, Martin was Miami's 2nd round pick, and has been targeted a lot for his poor play on Hardknocks.
Was looking for some Dolphins notes to see if they are really down on Fasano and I found this (source bleacehrreport)
Jonathon Martin couldn't have played worse against the Panthers two weeks ago. He surrendered three sacks, committed a pair of penalties and looked like a backup-caliber player at best.
I think this is telling because it is a direct comparison of who Howard went against and how much better he fared then one of the lineman we "passed on when the FO failed to address the position."
Has RT turned into a circus for us, YES. But that doesnt mean the FO has no clue...maybe they just didnt feel anyone was talented enough to go after, is that at all possible?
Not sure if you forgot to mention it, Martin was Miami's 2nd round pick, and has been targeted a lot for his poor play on Hardknocks.
on a related note, I watched St. Louis against the 'boys last night on NFLN and Jason Smith, while he was no world-beater, did a lot better than Hunter in pass protection and looks pretty similar in run-blocking. For the same cash, he definitely looks like an upgrade.
I'm not sure we should be benchmarking ourselves against the Miami Dolphins.
The point is the people saying we should have done more with the position have VERY FEW actualy answers that would be better then where we are at this particular moment.
Would using a second round pick on mike adams or martin be better then having howard AND stephen hill?
We cant draft 5 players in the first 2 rounds, and we cant afford every FA....Tanny is not doing a bad job here and frankly Howard seems to be able to handle the load here. Lets find a TE after Fridays cuts and see how we look then.
Never liked Adams or Martin. I did think Adams was a good pick for Pittsburgh since Mike Tomlin could get in his face every day to motivate him. But even so Adams is struggling.
Osemele is the only guy that I would have considered in the 2nd round for the Jets. However he had some of the same questions people had about Ducasse - would he be a better fit at OG. So there was some risk. But according to reports Osemele is a stud OL now for Baltimore.
Martin always had that risk of being a lazy bum. Happy with Howard but we still need competent depth at OL and blocking TE

Paul Penders Hydrating Control Serum (HCS) - 20g
All skin types require adequate moisture to maintain suppleness, softness, and full radiance. This botanical skin treatment is rich in vitamins, ceramides, and liposomes—powerful antioxidants that help reverse the signs of aging and accelerate the formation of healthy new skin cells. Aids in maintaining skin moisture levels. Suitable for all skin types with dry patches. Use in addition to normal moisturiser for extra hydration or on its own.
Applying HCS before your usual moisturiser gives fantastic results!
Note from Amanda: " I have found that HCS produces excellent results if a little of the serum is put into the palm of the hand and then gently patted over the face followed by your normal moisturiser. I trialled this method for a couple of months and found it made my skin silky smooth. One of my favourites!"
Great moisturiser Review by Coffecup
I have been using this for over a year now and continue to be delighted with it. It rubs in easily, leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturised all day. It has a pleasant smell and the bonus of no 'nasties' in the ingredients! Well done, Paul Pender! (Posted on 4/9/14)
Wonderful Review by Carole
This is a little gem of a product if your skin is on the dry side, it makes it immediately feel comforted and comfortable. Some people might even be able to get away with using this on its own with no need of a moisturiser on top but I prefer to top it with my moisturiser sealing in the nutrients underneath. I use less than the size of a pea for whole face. Its rich without feeling heavy. Love it. (Posted on 11/11/11)
Gorgeous serum Review by Charlotte
I have tried numerous serums and creams over the years but this one beats them all as it can be used without a moisturiser. It is non greasy and is easily absorbed. My skin definitely feels less dry...... I may soon start to sparkle!! (Posted on 6/24/11)

What if you lost everything today?
Why do you need home inventory?
Fire, floods, tornadoes, and burglary are all disasters that happen when we least expect it. Insurance companies require a detailed list of lost or damaged items for claims purposes. This can take hours and a lot of patience. You could lose thousands of dollars trying to inventory and remember the items you owned after disaster strikes. Why not let us do it for you? As a local firefighter I've seen the aftermath of disaster. I've seen families rummaging through the remains of their homes in order to account for every item they had. This can be very emotional and dangerous. Why not plan ahead? Let Sink Home Inventory Services be a safety net for your personal property.

Time magazine names Pope Francis Man of the Year
Time magazine announced today that its prestigious Man of the Year award goes to Pope Francis, with Edward Snowden coming in second. This is actually a Time MotY pick I agree with, unlike the year when the winner was "You". You could certainly argue that Snowden had a bigger impact on 2013, single-handedly changing the dynamics of international politics and espionage with his Smaug-like trove of secret information on the NSA, but Pope Francis has in his short tenure, gone a long, long way in starting to fix the tremendous crimes of the Vatican and being a Christian leader who, unlike most, actually behaves in a Christlike manner, with the kind of visible humility and compassion one usually sees in a Dalai Lama. And this comes after a man who thought it was still the Middle Ages, when it was cool for the Pope to dress only in the finest bling and do nothing to help those who have suffered directly under the Catholic Church.
Vatican recalls thousands of commemorative coins because they misspelled "Jesus"
The Vatican had to pull over 6000 gold, silver and bronze commemorative coins after it was discovered that some troglodyte accidentally misspelled "Jesus" on the coin as "Lesus". Oh Lesus Hrist.
Pope Francis makes child sex abuse and kiddie pron illegal in the Vatican. Apparently there were no laws against it previously.
Ever since he took office, Pope Francis has showed that he's a brand new kind of pope. In a bold move that brings the Vatican into the 19th century, Francis has made child sex abuse and child pornography illegal in Vatican city-state… apparently, there were no laws against such things in the Vatican before. Go Frank.
So apparently the Vatican has an official opinion on the Batman movie franchise
The Vatican is calling it a mistake, when a story about Batman showed up on the official Vatican website and Twitter feed, but we all know Pope Francis is a big Bat-fan. I wouldn't be surprised if he issues an official papal bull later this year on who should star in the Justice League movie.
So Europe's largest gay sauna is in a building owned by the Vatican. Isn't that a surprise?
As the world's eyes are on the Vatican, waiting to hear who will be the next Pope, the Vatican has been embarrassed again when it was made known that Europe's largest gay sauna is on the bottom floor of a building that also houses priests living and working in the Holy See. Of cock. The Vatican has feigned surprise at this revelation.
Did Pope Benedict resign because of a warrant out for his arrest?
While Pope Benedict and the Vatican say that the Pope's sudden announcement of resignation came because of health concerns, another story is starting to circulate that he resigned because he's facing arrest from some unnamed European government on behalf of the International Tribunal Into Crimes Against Church and State over Benedict's long-time handling and cover-up of systemic child abuse within the Catholic Church.
Who will be the next Pope? It very well could be an African.
With Benedict retiring at the end of this month, cardinals at the Vatican will be tasked with appointing a new pontiff. Among the main contenders are two Africans, an Italian and a Canadian. With many Catholics now living in developing countries, it might finally be time to appoint a non-European Pope for the first time ever.

PORT GIBSON, MS (WLBT) – The murder trial of an Alcorn State University student is unfolding in a Claiborne County court.
Ten months ago Danielle Newsom was killed in an off campus shooting.
Tuesday a jury was seated and testimony against the accused got underway.
Twenty-two-year-old Eboni Bena White sat inside a Claiborne County courtroom during the first day of testimony accused of the fatal shooting death of Danielle Nichol Newsom.
According to prosecutors, White shot Newsom five times on the morning of November 12th of last year.
Newsom, the mother of a then three year old son Danuel, turned 22 years old just two days before her murder.
During opening arguments Claiborne County District Attorney Alexander Martin said the Alcorn university student was killed in a conflict with White over Newsom's young child.
Family members said the two women knew each other from attending high school in Port Gibson.
Newsom was shot in front of the off campus mobile home in which she lived on Highway 522.
The victim's family members said they still have not been told a motive, although they believe it involved White's encounter with Newsom's son's school bus.
"Something about she went around the school bus after the school bus had its stop sign out," said Newsom's aunt Mandy Smith.
Prosecutors presented two witnesses including a firearms expert who testified that the five bullets taken from Newsom's body matched a recovered .25 caliber pistol.
Attorney Jim Kelly is defending White.
He declined comment at this point in the case.
Newsom's relatives told WLBT that the accused has been treated too leniently and they said they are concerned about receiving a fair verdict.
"Two live are lost, but I want to make sure justice is served, not with her being able to just constantly walk around. She's never set a night in jail. She's still free," added Smith.
White was released on a $35,000 bond.
Danielle, called Nichol by her relatives, was a senior biology major, who planned to be a biology teacher.
The trial resumes Wednesday at 9 a.m.

Not even two days after its release, and already an eagle-eyed user managed to exploit a loophole in iOS 7 that allowed him to access photos, e-mails, text messages, and any social network accounts synced to his account.
Forbes first reported on the exploit, which was discovered by Jose Rodriguez, who also found a security hole in iOS 6, though it also noted that it's not easy to replicate. Apple sent a statement to AllThingsD, saying that it is aware of the security flaw and that it will roll out a fix in a future iOS update that would eliminate it.
In order to reproduce the results, which can be viewed above, you'll have to swipe up from the lockscreen to get to Control Center. Then, press the alarm clock app, then hold the power button until you get the options to power off or cancel. From there, tap cancel, and then quickly double press the home button to bring up iOS 7′s multitasking interface.
I tested out the bug on my iPhone 5, and I have been able to reproduce the problem. However, I wasn't able to reproduce it on a consistent basis.

Important Information
Regarding E-Cigarettes:
E-Cigarettes –Prohibited in ECSD
Schools are currently dealing with a new phenomenon commonly referred to as
e-cigarettes. Electronic cigarettes are battery-operated devices equipped with
cartridges filled with liquid chemicals. Although e-cigarettes are promoted as
being safe, Health Canada advises not to use e-cigarettes because they haven't
been tested and may be harmful. They also warn that e-cigarettes may cause
nicotine poisoning and addiction. Health Canada reminds people to keep the
products away from children to prevent nicotine poisoning and choking. As the
safety of all our students and staff continues to be a key priority in our
district, Edmonton Catholic Schools has banned electronic cigarettes from all
district property (Admin Reg 117).

We now know brain function should not decline with age, at least for people who stay healthy and mentally active. Of course genes and luck have a lot to do with how well one ages. Even so, gene expression is influenced by things like exercise, diet, and mental activity.
Two genes have already been identified that become expressed as new memories are formed.

As the title suggests, everything on this blog concerns violence against trans women.
The Trans Women's Anti-Violence Project is a trans feminist project addressing issues of systematic, institutional and interpersonal violence and oppression experienced by trans women (those who were coercively assigned male at birth and identify or are identified as women/female) across multiple identities (e.g., race, class, dis/ability, citizen-status, nationality, sexuality, age, HIV status, and form, status, or age of transition, etc.)
Ida Hammer is a writer and social justice communicator. She organizes the Trans Women's Anti-Violence Project. She presents workshops and trainings on cis privilege and being a trans ally. She's also involved in organizing against sexualized violence. She's a proud dyke-identified trans woman and an organizer of the New York City Dyke March.
These are graphs from "Injustice at Every Turn" showing rate of sexual assault in jail/prison. The first graph is the rates of sexual assaults for trans women by race. The rates break down as follows:
According to "Injustice at Every Turn," a report of institutionalized discrimination against trans people: "Transgender women of color were particularly vulnerable to sexual assault in jail/prison. Thirty-eight percent (38%) of Black [trans women] respondents reported being sexually assaulted by either another inmate or a staff member in jail/prison."
Multiracial, Latina, Black and American Indian trans women are twice to more then three times as likely as White trans women to be sexually assaulted in prison.
This is the only statistic in the report that simultaneously accounts for both the race and gender of participants. Taken by themselves trans women and trans people of color experience higher rates of discrimination than trans men, nonbinary and white trans people.
The second graph shows sexual assault rates in prison/jail by gender. The rates are for trans women:
For trans men:
For all trans people:
Gender nonconforming people:
Trans women in jail/prison are three to nine times as likely to be sexually assaulted by inmates, nearly twice as likely to be sexually assaulted by staff, and about three (2.5 - 3.33) times as likely to be sexually assaulted by anyone when compared to trans men and gender nonconforming people in jail/prison.
The third graph shows sexual assault rates in prison/jail by race. These break down for all trans people who went to jail/prison:
American Indian (sample size too small for reliable analysis):
Asian Pacific Islander (sample size too small for reliable analysis):
With a similar break down to that of the first graph showing race and gender, trans people of color in jail/prison are significantly more likely to be sexually assaulted when compared to White trans people in jail/prison.

If you've read our iPad Interface and Court Records post, you know that every document our office handles eventually ends up in PDF form. That post generated so much traffic to our site we went over our bandwidth limit for the month twice. We really appreciate all of the responses and encouragement. Based on the iPad court records post, I was contacted by Geoff from Aji, the developers of many great iPhone/iPod/iPad apps. One such app is iAnnotate, and I couldn't be happier with it. iAnnotate is a PDF reader/editor, better described by Aji:
iAnnotate is both an elegant PDF reader and a powerful annotation tool that finally lets you work with your PDFs. You can open documents from email, sign and send out contracts fast, enter notes for edits, sketch diagrams, copy text, and add highlights or underline with the drag of a finger!
Aji has a great overview with some "how to" material available on Youtube HERE.
I've been using iAnnotate for about a week now, and it has improved my iPad workflow. There really is no other app like it anywhere in the app store. While I'm not going to do an intensive review, I am going to show you how I've been using iAnnotate in the real world, especially when I really needed it in an important case recently.
Since iTunes now supports two way file transfers, that's the method I've been using to place most of my PDF files in the iAnnotate app. You can also import them from your DropBox, GoodReader, mail, etc…. accounts by the simple "open in" feature. I have not tried Aji's PDF reader service, so I cannot comment on its functionality, but below is a sample from my DropBox account.
Once opened in iAnnotate, you are ready to edit and mark up your PDF. You can open multiple PDF files and sort through them in convenient tabs that show up across the top of the app itself. Note the tabs at the top of the app in the screen shots below. Imported documents show up in your iAnnotate library.
Notice I was reading the "How to become a paperless master" PDF. Excellent reading if you are interested, written by Ernest Svenson, aka "Ernie the Attorney". Check Ernie out HERE and HERE. His "Paperless Master" document is HERE.
There are plenty of options present to annotate/mark up your PDF. The day after Aji sent me the app, I used it in Court in a hearing on a Capital Murder case. The Edwards case is the pictures is the actual document I used.
I opened it in iAnnotate, quickly used the highlighter option along with the bookmark option and created a concise outline of what I wanted to argue and the points I wanted to make, all organized in bookmark form. When I was finished, I emailed the PDF to myself and uploaded it to the proper case file, notes and markings intact.
The screen shots below are self explanatory for the most part, so I won't comment much on them.
Tap the note icon in the toolbar to easily add a note. Notes also transfer to your final PDF should you chose to use it off the device.
Writing and underlining is easy, and colors are easily changed in the options menu. See below.
Bookmarks are added by selecting the bookmark icon from one of the toolbars you create. Bookmarks are then organized in to an easily accessible list.
Sharing your work is easy, you can email it, upload it through iTunes, or even "open in" you PDF viewer of choice on the iPad. I could not get the annotations I made to show up when opening the PDF in GoodReader, though.
The toolbars are highly customizable, and have a lot of different options, such as location, opacity, etc….
Midway through writing this review, the good folks at Aji updated iAnnotate, and now there is an email icon on the top bar, instead of buried in the menu. Excellent update, shown in the shot below.
iAnnotate has some really useful features built in, for example, when you email a PDF file, you can choose to send a summary of your annotations with it. I found this very useful, you get a summary of your main points in the PDF, as well as the ability to copy and paste the text in a different document.
As you can see below, the annotated PDF appears perfectly when opened on your computer. I could not get the bookmarks I made in iAnnotate to show up in the bookmarks feature of Acrobat, however.
Final Thoughts:
iAnnotate is a must have app if you work with PDF files. There is no other app that comes close to it in terms of PDF productivity. I've been using it everyday. The user interface is very easy to use, the menus are intuitive and highly customizable, and it seems very stable. One feature I would like to see added is a redaction tool for easily removing information from PDF files, but other than that I have no gripes. If you are looking for a solid way to edit PDF files on your iPad, give it a try.

The Educational Technology Team are responsible for creating and maintaining a wide variety of web-based solutions. This page highlights the work the Team do supporting educational, administration and marketing activities in the College.
Echo360 has been introduced to the College to provide automated recordings of live lectures and other events (inaugural lectures, training sessions). It is capable of:
1. synchronising the presentation, audio commentary and a video recording into a combined streamable format or podcast;
2. being scheduled to record automatically and publish directly into the learning management system.
Find out more or contact firstname.lastname@example.com for more information.
The Educational Technology Team have introduced an ePortfolio system for all students on the MBChB programme. The aim is to produce a secure web-based application which provides students with the opportunity for private reflection on all aspects of their studies and self-development. Additionally, the work can be shared with colleagues and tutors and published as reports or assignments.
The College have created a suite of rooms to support facilitated clinical simulation. These rooms are equipped with a CCTV-style video recording system, called the Scotia Medical Observation & Training System (SMOTS).
SMOTS offers the following advantages to clinical simulation:
1. 24/7 recording from ceiling-mounted or mobile video/audio units
2. networked software for immediate playback, feedback and publishing
3. great opportunity for students to self-evaluate their performance during the simulation.
Patient Pathways is an innovative project involving staff from the University of Birmingham Schools of Medicine and Health Sciences, the University of Central England, and City, Kidderminster and Good Hope NHS Trusts.
Together, we are developing joint educational resources for undergraduate medical students, Radiographers, Physiotherapists, Specialist Nurses and OD practitioners. Each professional group are expected to work through the online simulations prior to their placement (example below) and subsequently meet together for a facilitated discussion on the care pathway and role of the different professional groups.
Over the past 5 years, the Team have created a course administration system to support MBChB students. Now available across other programmes, this offers over 20 applications, including:
- clinical skills passport;
- grade archive and release;
- absence recording and monitoring;
- module/course evaluation recording and reporting.
Contact firstname.lastname@example.com for more information.
The Team are committed to supporting the staff and students in the College through in-house courses and online support websites. The websites offer guidance on College systems and activities, together with information on other interesting web-style developments.
Voting systems are gaining huge popularity amongst staff and students. They are particularly attractive in large lecture settings where interaction and engagement is difficult. The systems are now routinely used in MBChB and BMedSc lectures.

Food Habits
The cushion starfish, as most starfish do, feed by inverting their stomachs to digest their food. P. tesselatus feed on a few types of sponges such as Chaonites latus, as well as hydroids, scallops and the bacteria that covers mussels (Zintheo, 1946).

Papa, Please Get the Moon for Meby Eric Carle
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
andlt;Iandgt;Papa, Please Get the Moon for Meandlt;/Iandgt; andlt;BRandgt; In this unique and delightful picture book, the story literally unfolds as pages open dramatically, extending both outward and upward. Monica wants the moon to play with, so her Papa sets out to get it for her. It isn't easy to climb all the way up to the moon, but he finally succeeds — only to find that the moon is too big to carry home! The way in which this problem is solved is a joyful surprise. andlt;BRandgt; Here is a multi-faceted story that appeals to children visually, verbally and emotionally, and which also contains a first lesson in natural history, depicting the eternal cycle of the waxing and waning of the moon. The simple text, just right for reading aloud or for the beginning reader expresses perfectly the purity of a father's love for his child. Small readers will empathize with Monica"s longing for the moon, and will be reassured by her father's willingness to try to make her wish come true. And, on a deeper level, they will recognize that Papa is not merely fulfilling Monica's whim, but is demonstrating to her that even a seemingly unreachable goal can actually be attained. andlt;Iandgt;Papa, Please Get the Moon for Meandlt;/Iandgt; is a book to be re-read many times, and to be treasured for its beauty and its positive message of love and inspiration.
Monica's father fulfills her request for the moon by taking it down after it is small enough to carry, but it continues to change in size. Some pages fold out to display particularly large pictures.
About the Author
Eric Carle is known the world over for his beautiful picture books for very young children, with their simple and entertaining yet educationally sound stories and their distinctive collage illustrations. Born in Syracuse, New York, he moved with his parents to Germany, where he studied at the Academy of Applied Arts in Stuttgart. On returning to the United States, he worked for a time as a graphic designer for The New York Times, and then for a large advertising agency. His first children's book, 1,2,3 to the Zoo (1968) was an immediate success and his second, The Very Hungry Caterpillar (1969) brought him international acclaim and has established itself as a modern classic. He and his wife now live in northern Massachusetts.
A simpler version of Papa, Please Get the Moon for Me was written by Mr. Carle a number of years ago for his daughter Cirsten, who found it both heartening and inspiring. Now he has created new illustrations for his original story, and shares its message with a wider audience.

Ashurst have had an office in India for 16 years and yet they are light years behind CC, Links and Herbies when it comes to India. None of these firms have had a presence in India but have recognised that a colonial approach will not work anymore. Their India practices are largely staffed and led by Indian lawyers. Ashurst's India strategy seems to be the complete opposite. You wonder how they will develop any credibility in the Indian market if they continue like this. Simply turning up in India every now and then and saying "we have an India practice, give us work" is not sufficient especially when the partners soliciting work do not have any Indian credentials. Indians are not stupid!

I guess it's a good time for shoe sales as not only did Michael Jordan's famed 'Flu Game' kick sell for a record price recently, but Tony Allen of the Memphis Grizzlies has decided to sell his famed shoe as well.
What shoe would that be, you ask?
Obviously the one that kicked Los Angeles Clippers point guard Chris Paul in the face – duh.
Allen (via charity) placed the shoe on eBay recently where the winning proceeds will go to Youth Villages, a nonprofit organization that provides money to children and families.
"I'm glad that the shoe will be creating something special for kids in Memphis. Everyone deserves to have a Christmas to remember. I'm glad I can be a part of their memories," Allen said.
The shoe will also be autographed by Allen and mounted in a custom Memphis Grizzlies case.
The auction, which will end on the 22nd of December, is currently at $5,300 dollars with 46 bids placed.

Next up is one of the toughest categories, that of the Best Ensemble in a Drama Series. The SAGs slipped up last year when they failed to even nominate Homeland, so would they attempt to rectify this mistake? The nominees are:
Boardwalk Empire
Breaking Bad
Downton Abbey
Mad Men
No such luck Homeland as the Actor surprisingly goes to the underdog Downton Abbey. The 22-piece acting ensemble followed the lead of Phyllis Logan (the head housekeeper) to the stage, whereby she took over the mic and, in her moment of disbelief, used the phrase, "Shut the French windows!" Our new favourite catchphrase for everyday life.

"A glowing blue tendril wriggled down through the opening, sprouting smaller appendages and scraping along the debris-littered floor. It stopped in front of Newt, tasting the air around him. Newt gaped at it, astonished. What an organism this was. Bioluminescent, working with an incredible sensory spectrum way beyond that of a human, capable of extreme plasticity of tissue but also highly robust and armored… It was a perfect organism— almost. And it was created. It was the latest version. The next one would be even better."

This is a cool video of Wiz making some comments regarding the five brand new songs he put out over the course of a week with the homies Spitta and Big Sean. These songs were pretty dope and had a real How Fly vibe to 'em and I was hoping this would turn into a mixtape that dropped a single at a time. Although, Big Sean has hinted at the fact that he is back to making mixtapes since the album dropped so these songs might end up on whatever Big Sean ends up droppin. Either way I love it and I respect all three of them for keeping in touch with their fans by releasing so much free music. This shows they haven't forgotten what got them where they are. Anyways, I don't know about you, but I'm gonna throw on some How Fly.

A fine legal point, and I agree with you. However, the larger point I was trying to make is that there is virtually zero probability that the Court will rule that you can have any kind of firearm, anywhere, at any time.
Some folks believe there should be no "infringements" on the 2A, and that just will not pass judicial muster - just like some infringements on free speech are allowed.
My personal opinion (which is worth zero, since I am not on the Court) is that the 2A applies to small arms that are of the same basic type as those used by the general infantryman of the day. When the 2A was written, there was no difference between the pistol, musket or rifle of the militiaman, and the firearms used by citizens (other than perhaps the provision for a bayonet).
Thus, an argument could be made for pistols, rifles (including full auto), shotguns, and similar "common arms." Some folks want to argue that citizens should be allowed to own anything - like heavy machine guns (which are legal in some States if you get the tax stamp, etc). Personally, I don't think the 2A covers "heavy" or "crew-served" weapons...though I know others disagree. A topic for another day...

Sir Paul McCartney learning to ski
Sir Paul McCartney has been learning to ski in the French Alps during his winter break.
Sir Paul McCartney is learning to ski.
The Beatles legend has been taking to the slopes every day with a personal instructor during his winter break in the French Alps in a bid to master the art of snowy activity.
However, while the 71-year-old singer has been making his way down the slopes, his wife Nancy Shevell, 53, has been keeping away from the icy conditions by staying in their private lodge.
The skiing trip couldn't have come at a better time for Sir Paul, who has been busy in the US for the past month making a special TV show 'The Night That Changed America: A Grammy Salute to The Beatles' to commemorate 50 years since the group first appeared on American television.
During the show, Paul and his bandmate Ringo Starr paid tribute to late Beatles, John Lennon - who was shot and killed in New York in 1980 - and George Harrison, who died of lung cancer in 2001.
Drummer Ringo 73, told the audience during the programme: ''We were in a band called The Beatles and whenever we play George and John are always with us.''
The show aired on CBS on February 9 and featured performances from the likes of Stevie Wonder, Keith Urban, Katy Perry, John Mayer and Alicia Keys.
Paul's ex-wife, Heather Mills, is a paralympic skiier but was forced to pull out of the 2014 games because of an injury she suffered to her leg, which she later blamed on the equipment she was required to use by governing body IPC.
