Welcome! We hope to have you up and running with an Eximchain node as quickly as possible. In order to do this you will need to use use your terminal and have installed Go and the Eximchain Node. These instructions were written on OS X using bash, but should be transferrable to other Unix systems. We also have easy Windows and OS X instructions available.
This guide walks you through the process of pulling our code and compiling the binaries yourself. There are also published Linux binaries on the repository's GitHub Releases page . If you want to just use those, download and skip to Running Your Node.
Getting ready with Go!
Download Go
Before you begin make sure you have Go installed on your device. Instructions on how to download and install Go can be found here:
Once you have installed Go you can continue.
Setting GOPATH & GOPATH/bin
The GOPATH environment variable specifies the location of your workspace. If no GOPATH is set, it is assumed to be $HOME/go on Unix systems and %USERPROFILE%\go on Windows. If you want to use a custom location as your workspace, you can set the GOPATH environment variable. The instructions below will be for Unix systems (Linux & Mac).
Editing your Bash Profile
GOPATH can be any directory on your system. In Unix examples, we will set it to $HOME/go (the default since Go 1.8). Note that GOPATH must not be the same path as your Go installation. Another common setup is to set GOPATH=$HOME.
1. Open your favorite Terminal app.
2. Input the following command
$ nano ~/.bash_profile
This command will open the .bash_profile document (or create it if it doesn't already exist) in the easiest to use text editor in Terminal – Nano.
3. Now you can make a simple change to the file. Paste the following lines of code shown below.
export GOPATH=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin
4. Save and exit the Nano editor. You do this by typing "ctrl+O". Hit "return" to save. Then exit Nano by typing "ctrl+X"
5. Then, source your ~/.bash_profile
$ source ~/.bash_profile
Note: changes made to a profile file may not apply until the next time you log into your computer. To apply the changes immediately, just run the shell commands directly or execute them from the profile using a command such as source $HOME/.profile.
Instructions on how to set your GOPATH on other platforms can be found here.
Installing an Eximchain Node
Exim is a fork of Geth/Quorum, their command line interfaces are very similar. A command line interface (CLI), a compiled binary, program, and client for running a full Eximchain node implemented in Go.
We will use Exim to run a fully synced Eximchain node to connect to a the main network.
Install Eximchain/go-ethereum
$ go get -d github.com/eximchain/go-ethereum
$ go install github.com/eximchain/go-ethereum/cmd/exim
This may take seconds to a couple of minutes as the files are downloaded . Go get will put the Eximchain Node code in this directory "
~/go/src/github.com/eximchain/go-ethereum". Go install will put the executable file inside of the following directory
Verify the installation
$ which exim
> /Users/ubuntu/go/bin/exim
$ exim version
> Exim
> Version: 1.8.16-*
Ensure you are running the same version in order to be able to perform a full sync of the Eximchain network.
Running and Syncing an Eximchain node
In order to run an Eximchain node you will need to first generate the genesis block, then connect to a bootnode to being syncing to the latest block. For reference the default data director for the client's chain data is stored in $HOME/Library/Exim/
Change the directory go get placed the Eximchain Node code
$ cd ~/go/src/github.com/eximchain/go-ethereum
Build the genesis block
$ exim init build/genesis.json
Select bootnode
You can see all the list of bootnodes on our Github repository here:
Copy one of the enode complete addresses starting with "enode://..." and ending with "...:21000". You are now ready to start the node.
Starting the Eximchain Node
In order for your Eximchain node to connect to the Eximchain Wallet you will need to open the rpcport. This is done through a set of command line flags we will outline below. Read more about CLI options here.
Edit the script below with the enode you selected above after the --bootnodes flag.
$ exim --networkid 1 --rpc --rpcaddr "localhost" --rpcapi admin,db,eth,debug,miner,net,shh,txpool,personal,web3,quorum --rpcport 22000 --rpccorsdomain "*" --rpcvhosts "localhost" --port 21000 --maxpeers 25 --verbosity 4 --bootnodes "enode://email@example.com:21000"
The above command will:
- start downloading the Eximchain history necessary to become a new fully valid, synced Node of the network
- the communication will happen over port 21000
- additional RPC API will launch so we can communicate with our node through consoles
A node synchronizes the blockchain by downloading the chain from the genesis block to the current head block. The length of the blockchain will determine how long the first sync takes. Be sure to have access to power and can leave this process running in the event that it takes longer than expected.
Once the blockchain is fully synced you can move forward. You can now interact with the Eximchain network in one of following ways!
Accessing your Eximchain Account
Wallet App
With the node you just setup you can automatically connect to the node by simply launching the Wallet App. Instructions on how to download the Wallet app can be found here. Instructions on how to Connect your Wallet to an Eximchain node can be found by clicking the title above.
Eximchain Node
This requires you to import your private key to the node we just setup locally. Instructions for that can be found by clicking the title above.

Happy Birthday, Lizzie Borden
On July 19, 2017, Lizzie would be 157 years old if she'd managed to outwit death somehow--her and Elvis, right?
Birthdays are important things. Some people take them more seriously than others; I personally always took the day off work and enjoyed the fact of my being on earth. Others prefer to pretend the anniversary doesn't exist, denying the onslaught of years.
It's interesting to note that the murders of the Borden parents took place a mere two weeks and two days after Lizzie's 32nd birthday.
I remember turning 30. It felt like a crisis: I hadn't accomplished any of the things I wanted to accomplish: publishing a novel (or 20), having children. I had my mid-life crisis early.
Imagine what it was like for Lizzie Borden, turning 32. In an era that only prized wifehood and motherhood for women, she had no suitors (that we knew about anyway). In a time period that freely threw around the pejorative word "spinster," she was one. As much as we feel sympathy for kids still living at home in their thirties today, imagine how it felt to live at home when you were jobless, powerless, feeling like you had no true "value" in the world other than your volunteering through the church. And with no wifi.
Lizzie volunteered sporadically, undertaking positions and then abandoning them. It has always seemed curious to me that she did not join friends at the seashore at Marion at the time of the murders merely because she needed to do a "roll call" as a volunteer leader. I can only assume a roll call means registering those who will serve on a particular committee and solidifying the responsibilities. Why did she feel that was so important, when she had preemptorily left other posts? If she had gone to the seashore, felt that healing connection to the sea, let the wind lift her hair off her neck, would some of her feelings of rage have abated?
In my novel The Murderer's Maid, I posit that she didn't go to Marion because she had her period. In those tamponless times, it would be no fun to soak cloths in a bucket--and maybe she'd be sharing a room with a friend-- and trying to hide the signs and smells (ordinarily, at home, the maid would deal with such unpleasant tasks). It is said that 1892 was one of the hottest summers on record.
Her roll call ended up having a much more deadly tally.
Well, anyway, happy birthday, Lizzie!

In astrology, 28-30 years of age is when people experience their first Saturn return, meaning that Saturn returns to the same degree and sign it was in when they were born. Saturn is the planet of responsibility - it's sometimes referred to as the celestial taskmaster - and as such that first Saturn return can be a real humdinger. I'd be curious to see an astrological chart of Lizzie's, and one for when the murders occurred.
Your theory is fascinating. Any idea if she had a condition that made periods especially painful?

I made this delicious strata for weekend brunch with dear friends visiting from Austin and New York. The Horns lost, but the strata was a winner indeed! I served it alongside fresh fruit, muffins, coffee and mimosas…my idea of a perfect Saturday morning. This recipe was adapted from the BHG cookbook and I'm sure would be delicious as vegetarian…add some fresh spinach and tomatoes; or you could use ham or proscuitto…you get the idea. Leftovers are delicious and makes for a great lunch with a side salad. Enjoy dear friends!
BREAKFAST STRATA (serves 6-8)
8 oz. chorizo, removed from casing (italian or pork sausage can be used)
1/3 cup chopped onion
1/3 cup chopped red bell pepper
1 clove garlic, minced
5 cups French or Italian bread cubes
1 1/2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend (or Monterrey Jack)
4 eggs, beaten
2 cups milk
1/4 tsp. salt
1 TBSP snipped fresh cilantro (or parsley)
Preheat oven to 325°F
In large skillet, cook sausage, onion, pepper and garlic until sausage is cooked and veggies tender. Drain off fat and set aside.
Lightly coat 2-quart baking dish with oil and add bread cubes. Spoon sausage mixture over bread cubes. Sprinkle with 1 cup of cheese.
Combine eggs, milk, salt and cilantro in bowl. Pour egg mixture over bread layers in baking dish and gently press down layers with spoon. Let stand for 15 minutes.
Bake, uncovered, at 325°F for about 45 minutes until knife inserted comes out clean. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese last 5 minutes of baking and let stand 10 minutes before serving. Salud mis amigas!
(BRUNCH TIP: You can prepare this the night before so your morning is hassle-free. Prepare as above BEFORE baking, cover and refrigerate overnight or up to 24 hrs. Bake at 325°F for 1 hour.)

I literally just finished editing all the photos from the Young Tigers Boxing Tournament that was held this last Sunday.
Here are a few photos to whet your appetite. I'll be posting the full albums tomorrow.
Just to let everyone know, and I speak for a few of the boxing photographers that cover boxing in South Africa. We do this because we love boxing and we do this for boxing. I personally don't make a single cent from boxing. I have invested in expensive equipment which is better suited to sports photography, I spend my hard earned money on fuel to and from boxing tournaments and I spend hours and hours editing and sorting through thousands of photos so that I can bring you guys photos of the boxing.
I feel incredibly privileged to be in the position to do this for boxing and I feel that I am contributing to this beautiful sport as best as I know how. If we all stand together, we can all make boxing in South Africa greater and greater.
Please understand that because boxing photography is not a source of income, and I do rely on other jobs for my income, I have to prioritise those jobs so that I can continue what I do for boxing as well as try and make a living. This means that getting through all the photos takes time. The photos will always come, as soon as I've been able to work through them all.
I look forward to continuing to cover boxing and doing my best to bring all the fans, coaches and boxers the best photos that I can possibly offer.
Please go and like my Photography page for all the boxing photos that I will be posting.

Meet Kittany
Prepare to be charmed! I'm Kittany, the klepto-kat. What do I steal? People's hearts, of course! I'm a gorgeous, gray tabby with a silky, shimmery, swirl- patterned coat. I'm all about hugs, kisses, cuddles, but most of all, LAPS. Yes, I'm a feline cling-on! I know some cats would rather sit on hot coals than sit on your lap, but not me! I'm a total cuddle bug! Do you like game shows? I'll sit with you and watch, too! My favorites are "Who Wants to be a Meowionaire", "Jeopurrdy", "Meal of Fortune", and "Meal or No Deal". Then, bonk, bonk, bonk...that's me giving head bunts, letting you know I think you are the cat's meow. I like to play with wand toys and I have a special trick...I stand on my hind legs like a meerkat while I swat at the mouse on the end of the string! Not many cats do that! When I first came here I was so afraid, I hunkered down behind my box like a bear trying to hibernate. Now I'm still a tad shy, but once I become familiar with you, it's instant BFF! I'm very well-behaved, quiet, and gentle. I came here with my brother, Beaver, so I'm used to living with other cats. I would be happiest in a quiet home without very young children. So if you are looking for a four-legged blessing who will love and adore you (and probably want to sleep on your bed), please come in and meet me soon!

The Change Library is a practical, searchable, peer-reviewed implementation library that helps change makers by sharing both the things that work and the things that don't work to improve health, wellbeing, and equity with people and communities. Similar to an academic journal, your submission is reviewed by peers and experts in the field. Unlike a traditional journal, Change Library submissions focus on implementation details. How long did it take? In what context was it used? What details do you need to use this resource?
There are three types of resources available in the Change Library: tools, stories, and bright spots.
Tools can be toolkits, guidelines/recommendations, websites, applications (apps), articles, reports, books—or any other resource.
Stories describe the journey of a person, organization, coalition, or community. They can be stories of personal transformation; stories that offer insight into the journey to health, wellbeing, and equity; or stories about a "fail forward" moment—one where a mistake or failure led to significant growth and learning.
- Bright spots are specific practices, policies, or programs that have demonstrated significant, meaningful, measurable improvement. They may be early successes related to something that has worked well in your community or organization.
Do you, your community, or organization have a resource to share with the field?
100 Million Healthier Lives is an unprecedented collaboration of change agents pursuing an unprecedented result: 100 million people living healthier lives by 2020.
Together, we are creating a community of solutions to the most intractable challenges that stand in the way of achieving health, wellbeing and equity across the globe.
Our Mission: 100 million people living healthier lives by 2020.
Our Vision: To fundamentally transform the way the world thinks and acts to improve health, wellbeing, and equity to get to breakthrough results.
This tool was adapted from the North Carolina Improvement Map (IMAPP) which was developed by Population Health Improvement Partners, Department of Health & Human Services, and the Institute for Healthcare Improvement. The redesign of IMAPP to Change Library was funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Illinois Public Health Institute, and members of 100 Million Healthier Lives.

Tip: This is because the final offset in a string is always one less than its length, when length is one or more.String Length
Console: With Console, we print some text and the character values to the terminal window.Console
Info: You can pass a char directly to Console.WriteLine because WriteLine provides an overloaded method with an appropriate signature.Overload
And: With empty strings, the Length is zero, so there are no available offsets for you to access in the string.
Here: The string.IsNullOrEmpty static method checks for strings that cannot have their characters accessed.IsNullOrEmpty, IsNullOrWhiteSpaceStatic
Tip: IsNullOrEmpty allows the enclosed block to execute only when there is one or more characters.
And: In the .NET Framework, the chars are accessed in an internal method, not in managed code.
Info: I changed an important algorithm to use the char indexer instead of 1-character substrings. The program became 75% faster.Levenshtein

There's nothing like being at "The Great American Race" in Daytona, FL! A few years ago when we lived in Florida, my sister got us tickets to sit in the stands at the Daytona 500 and each year I watch it as a tradition. Aramis was only 3 or 4 at the time and all I can remember is telling him was to "watch out for Lighting McQueen!" He absolutely LOVED watching and feeling the roar of the cars as they sped by each time. This past Sunday we actually got to see Lightning McQueen! Well sort of from the comfort of our home that is, Lighting McQueen was at the Daytona 500 with Owen Wilson!
I would have loved to have seen them both in person at such a fun event! I've never experienced another NASCAR race in person but I have to think Daytona is like no other. This years' race was out of control, not sure if you caught it but it seemed like there was wreck after wreck! Luckily no one was hurt badly, just had to end their race day sooner than expected. It made me think of the first sneak peek trailer from Cars 3. That wreck scene!!
Turns out the whole gang was there! One of my favorite female and Latina comedian and actor Cristela Alonzo aka Cruz Ramirez was at the race as well as the rest of the Cars 3 gang! And they got to meet some of the racers!! The great Richard Petty and the great Jeff Gordon, I mean I would have been fan girling! Bet you didn't know I was a fan! That's something you didn't know about me! LOL
Watch the Cars 3 "Next Generation" Extended look trailer now! Can't wait to share more Cars 3 news with you in the coming months! It's gonna be a good one! Ka-chow!

Realismo e desempenho impressionantes, imersão e precisão incríveis, tecnologia soberba, engenharia e fabricação apresentam a plataforma de movimento…
Next Level Racing® Traction Plus Motion
O Traction Plus é realmente um produto de classe mundial projetado para finalmente fechar essa lacuna entre a pista / tarmac e simulação com um produto e a experiência como nenhum outro simulador de movimento antes dele. O conceito e a tecnologia deslizantes só foram vistos antes nas equipes profissionais de mais alto nível, com orçamentos de centenas de milhares de dólares ou, em muitos casos, mais de um milhão de dólares. O Traction Plus foi projetado e desenvolvido em colaboração com uma equipe de engenharia de movimento de classe mundial para oferecer uma experiência de movimento incomparável. Para alcançar o realismo e a precisão finais, isso exigiu tecnologia e engenharia completamente exclusivas, com um produto projetado desde o início por mais de 4 anos, que inclui mais de 2000 componentes. A plataforma foi projetada e desenvolvida puramente para simulação, em vez de apenas usar atuadores comerciais e se adaptar à simulação. O Traction Plus é incrivelmente mais do que apenas um sistema de perda de tração traseira e projetado para combinar com a plataforma de movimento V3 para fornecer uma experiência inovadora em simulador de movimento.
The Traction Plus moves the whole cockpit and delivers both understeer and oversteer in the most realistic and precise way possible.
Based on feedback from professional drivers during product development the understeer component of a motion platform which is usually only found in 6DOF systems is absolutely critical in accurately and precisely simulating the vehicle. Feeling both understeer and oversteer the platform can be used effectively for driver/racer training particularly for cornering and rally, feeling what is happening with both rear and front of the vehicle. Even the differences between rear wheel drive, front wheel drive and all-wheel drive vehicles can be felt with the precise feedback delivered through the Traction Plus platform. The Motion Platform V3 and Traction Plus combine to provide accurate vehicle feedback for front wheel lock up meaning you will feel vibration as well as front of the vehicle sliding out of the corner when too much brake pressure is applied. (also applicable for rear wheel lock up depending on vehicle bias)
The Traction Plus combined with the Next Level Racing® Motion Platform V3 provides incredible levels of vehicle feedback to the driver to feel exactly what the vehicle doing by precisely delivering:
- Sway
- Surge
- Roll
- Pitch
- Understeer and front traction loss – (critical feature usually only experienced in 6DOF motion platforms)
- Oversteer and rear traction loss
- Power slides and drifting
- Partial Heave
- Vehicle and Road effects such as road surface, bumps, wheel lock/spin, gear changes and more
- Shunting effects (to feel side impact contact from opponents/wall
The Traction Plus can add further realism by allowing the pilot to feel the behavior of the aircraft more precisely.
As with the Motion Platform V3 that's had professional aviators including: airline, private, military, and flight training institutions and universities, the Traction Plus can add further realism by allowing the pilot to experience the flight characteristics of the aircraft more realistically.
The Pitch and Roll axis simulation from the Motion Platform V3 is augmented with the Traction Plus to provide the third axis of Yaw to generate an incredibly genuine sensation of flight.
The simulator also replicates the motions of landing gear operation, combat/cannon fire, ground movement, turbulence, and crosswind effects and can be paired with augmented reality/VR to create an unparalleled level or realism. Smoother rudder operation can be trained effectively with the combination of yaw and pivot.
Whether it be for fun, training, or for professional development, the Traction Plus will surely be an important instrument for any aviators journey.
The design, engineering and technology of the Traction Plus is completely ground breaking
You will expect the same level of quality and durability with this product as found with the Motion Platform V3. Designed and manufactured completely in Europe and powered by MotionSystems, the Traction Plus platform is a world class product. Also keeping the home user in mind, painstaking engineering has been performed to not only set a benchmark in performance but also make sure the Traction Plus (like the Motion Platform V3) is the quietest motion platform in its class with the smallest footprint possible.
The Traction Plus and Motion Platform V3 have been designed, engineered and manufactured to give the most realistic, immersive and accurate simulation experience and together deliver a new benchmark in motion simulation experience.
These are not just another actuator solution that have simply adapted actuators to be used for simulation. These are both products designed, engineered and manufactured from ground up purely for advanced simulation and professional applications being able to precisely deliver feedback to the driver or pilot.
As with the Motion Platform V3 The Traction Plus is a product designed for a customer to be able to assemble and setup in their very own home themselves without needing to have a technical background.

Cancer survivor Kenneth Harris says his relationship with his GP saved his life.
The 46-year-old has told his story to the South Western Sydney Primary Health Network (SWSPHN) on the eve of World Cancer Day on Monday, February 4, to highlight the importance of cancer screening and having a regular GP.
This year's theme, I Am and I Will, encourages individuals to act now to have a positive impact on the future.
Kenneth Harris said he went to his GP of 10 years for a check-up when he turned 40 and told him 'let's just check things out'. One of the tests his doctor ordered was for prostate cancer.
"He came back and he said you're going to live until you're 100 but we're just going to have a look at this," Mr Harris said.
"He'd done the blood test for prostate cancer and it came back as above four, a marker for cancer."
Kenneth said he was diagnosed with prostate cancer and his prostate was removed in August 2012.
"A week later I saw my urologist who had my pathology sheet in his hands – he shook his head and said 'mate, you're amazingly lucky'. My cancer was at stage three and they got it at the very last moment to stop it before it spread," he said.
"People say 'oh you're very young, even doctors'. People are under the misapprehension that prostate cancer is something only older men get but prostate cancer feeds on testosterone so if you have it young, you have more testosterone and it impacts more quickly."
Mr Harris, pictured below, said he'd been lucky to meet the right doctors at the right time to treat his prostate cancer but "it all started with my GP".
"I consciously made a decision to go to a family doctor when I was in my 30s because I wanted to build up a rapport," he said.
"You need to actively search out a GP, you need to be able to speak to them, relate to them, be comfortable with them, trust them.
"My GP was someone who listened – that made me feel like he was a good doctor."
The value of that long term relationship was again emphasised when Mr Harris was diagnosed with a spinal tumour in early 2013.
He said his legs seemed to stop working properly and despite a CT scan which showed nothing wrong, his GP referred him to a neurologist who ordered further tests that found the tumour which was – like the unrelated prostate cancer – successfully treated.
"I was very lucky but it all comes back to having that relationship with my GP when I wasn't sick. I got sick and he knew because of the things I'd gone to see him about when I wasn't sick. You won't have the chance to have that luck if don't have a family GP," he said.
SWSPHN chief executive officer Keith McDonald said the PHN supported the community in making informed health choices, and as Mr Harris's story showed, building a good relationship with a GP was an important part of staying healthy.
He said when in doubt always talk to your GP.
"Your GP is able to provide you with information, support and advice about what cancer screening tests you should be having because of your age, gender or other factors," he said.
"As we mark World Cancer Day on Monday, I'd encourage community members to talk to your GP about cancer screening – early detection can increase the chances of successful treatment."
Kenneth Harris agrees: "Catch it early – it may be a journey, but it's a journey you can survive,'' he says.

The personal blog of Sven Seebeck
The other day I found this fascinating and beautifully designed interactive visualization of Miles Davis's work:
Here is a look at the history of Miles Davis' career and collaborations according to his recording sessions as documented by the Jazz Discography Project. Over four hundred recording sessions are shown in a timeline across the middle of the screen. The circles above it represent the nearly six hundred people who played those sessions; larger circles indicate more sessions with Miles.
Everything is there: chronological recordings, line-ups and soundsamples to listen to. It's a little hard to explain, you may want to have a look at it yourself.

On the "Weed" project I am lucky enough to be working with some fantastic scientists and advisors including New Zealand's pre-eminent expert in seaweeds – Dr Wendy Nelson.
Wendy is Principal Scientist – Marine Biology and Programme Leader – Marine Biological Resources at NIWA. Her book NZ Seaweeds an illustrated guide (ISBN: 978-0-9876688-1-3)has become indispensable in identifying my algae discoveries.
Because I intend the first showing of this project to be part of a Kermadec exhibition in April I am am very keen to make sure I am including seaweed from that region in the project. With Wendy's help I have been able to track down the only seaweed from the Kermadecs that can be found in Wellington, Pterocladiella, and one other, Caulerpa geminata, which looks the same as another Kermadec algae (the Kermadecs is C. racemose – same genus but different species).
She has also been a great source on tips on keeping algae happy while I transport, store and photograph it. I never would have found Pterocladiella without her help.
Thanks for all your help Wendy.
Some other good seaweed reads:

If you are a certified music junkie or sound techie, you have probably attended a sound exhibition at Sonos Studio in LA. For everyone else, prepare to have your mind blow! Sonos Studio LA is an acoustically-designed gallery that explores the intersection of music, art and technology. Think of it like an art gallery designed by your hipster grandparents who founded Pandora and Instagram with a techie twist. Located at 145 North La Brea, Los Angeles, CA, we visited the Sonos Studio to check out the grand opening of their new sound exhibition "Sonic Garden" featuring Mileece, a sound and environmental installation artist.
We had no idea what to expect, and eagerly anticipated the night as we drove into LA (often an event unto itself). What we found was a true gem that stood out in a vibrant city. The Sonic Garden was one of those things your cooler friend is always posting about after the fact, an event that leaves you thinking, "So that's where all the cool kids go!" Literally, from the floors to the ceiling, every inch of space was customized to produce a total sensory experience. The walls are tuned for acoustic ambiance, and for tonight, has been filled with real life plants as part of a live demonstration.
Sonic Garden
The Sonic Garden event saw Sonos Studio transformed into an ecological sanctuary where live plants empowered an immersive sonic experience through sensors that harnessed bio-electrical signals wired to the leaves of the plants. Sonos Studio collaborated with an excellent resource, Mileece, a sound and environmental installation artist, who showcased a live performance on the opening night on how plants act as instruments to create harmonic symphonies. Mileece has exhibited works globally for the Museum of Modern Art and the Royal Botanic Gardens in England.Sonos Studio's "Sonic Garden" Exhibition by Artist Mileece
"Nature and technology have often times been pitted against each other as opposing forces. However, at Sonos Studio LA, they come to together to form a melodic alliance."
Inspired by the film, The Secret Life of Plants, Mileece transformed Sonos Studio into an ecological sanctuary where plants empower an immersive sonic experience through Sonos' smart speakers. Plants respond to all elements in their environment – even music and people. The bioelectricity emitted by each plant reacts to the human touch, creating harmonic frequencies and ambient tones streamed through the Sonos Smart Speaker System. To say we had never experienced anything like it is an understatement. We lived every single moment, and walked away feeling renewed and refreshed!
The Sonos Studio
Located smack in the middle of LA, the year-old Sonos Studio is not a big room, and its shows, listening parties and interview sessions — featuring folks like Beck, The Lonely Island and Solange — often have lines around the block. But they're worth queuing up for, as the events at the space are (a) free and (b) have free booze. And we're not talking Gordon's spirits but stuff like gourmet Screwdrivers made with Aranciata and Svedka. Th guests are an eclectic bunch, who arrive to see some of the cities most exciting acts. You will see and hear the heartbeat of LA in this still secret joint!Sonos Studio's "Sonic Garden" Exhibition by Artist Mileece
The Sonos Studio will be launching exhibits into 2015/16, so be sure to check out their website and subscribe to their social media so you don't miss these amazing events. Public events are free and offer an open bar, making them essentially the best date night suggestion we can think of! Suitable for casual outings, and even going alone, we can see Sonos Studio becoming an integral part of the arts culture in LA, and can't wait to attend again. Our thanks to Sonos for inviting us to their opening night, we wish you every success and many more memories to come!

If you have multiple operating systems installed on your computer, you will have to choose the one you want to boot to from a boot menu set up by the system every time you restarts your computer. It's not a big deal but it would be cool if I can choose where I want to boot to next time right from the desktop.
Reboot-To is one such tool that lets you pick and boot to the different operating system without going through the boot menu. For example, when I am on Windows 8 and would like to boot to Windows 7 when the system restarts, with Reboot-To, I can go to the System Tray, right-click Reboot-To's icon and choose Windows 7 from the menu. And when I am ready to restart the computer, I can just reboot and it will take me straight to Windows 7 without me going through the boot menu.
Noticed that you can also choose to boot to the Memory Diagnostics Tool as well.
You can also have a few options to set how you want the tool to work, Start with Windows, Reboot on Selection, or Auto Check Updates.
You will also have to install Reboot-To on all operating systems you have installed on your computer in order to have this boot straight from desktop feature and skip to boot menu.
Reboot-To works on Windows Vista and above, both 32-bit and 64-bit editions are supported. It was developed by Sysfunctions but you will find it's extremely difficult to download this free utility straight from their website. It's free but you will still have to go through the normal checkout process in order to download it, just like you are buying a paid product from them. However, you can use this alternative download link from this page.

10..........to N/S Yellow
E/W Red
1,5,6,9....to E/W Green
11..........to E/W Yellow

An Indiana State Police trooper has been fired after admitting to continuing a relationship with a 17-year-old girl.
A state police document said Trooper Ryan Starnes of Bloomington was accused by the teenager's parents of maintaining a relationship with the girl between July and October 2018.
The document from State Police Superintendent Doug Carter said Starnes committed conduct unbecoming of an officer when "he continued a relationship with a female" after learning she was 17.
Capt. Dave Bursten said state police were able to substantiate the allegation.
Starnes' dismissal was effective Feb. 28, and he has until March 15 to file an appeal.

Check your belts and hoses regularly to ensure they are working properly for you. To inspect a belt, you will want to look for any signs of cracking or fraying. If you are noticing these signs, it's probably time to replace those belts. Neglecting belts can cause you to end up on the side of the road waiting for the tow truck to take you to the nearest auto repair shop.
Same goes for your hoses. Make sure to check your hoses regularly as well. The best way to check coolant hoses is to visually inspect them for bulging or leakage. You will also want to squeeze the hose in various spots to check for cracking sounds, harness or soft spots. If any of those are noticed, its time for new hoses.

A cell in which spontaneous red-ox reaction generates an electric current is called?
- Electrolytic cell
- Electrochemical cell
- Voltaic and galvanic cell
- Biological cell
Correct Option:
Voltaic and galvanic cell
A galvanic cell, or voltaic cell is an electrochemical cell that derives electrical energy from spontaneous red-ox reactions taking place within the cell. It generally consists of two different metals connected by a salt bridge, or individual half-cells separated by porous membrane.
Transition Elements
Which has least melting point among given list?
- Zn
- Co
Correct Option:
Zn has least melting point. As binding energy strengthens, the melting point increases. Binding energy depends upon number of unpaired electrons and Zn has zero unpaired electron. Therefore it has least melting point amongst transition elements.
Chemical Equilibrium
2HI —> H2 + I2 is a reversible reaction. It is not affected by which of the following?
- Temperature
- Catalyst
- Volume
- Pressure
Correct Option:
Since in this reaction the number of moles of the products formed are same as the number of moles of reactants. So there will be no effect of pressure.
Change in volume would affect the equilibrium e.g. if we increase the volume of H2 only, the reaction equilibrium will move toward reactant.
Temperature and catalyst also affect the equilibrium.

United States Court of Appeals, First Circuit
July 26, 2017
JUDITH SHAULIS, Plaintiff, Appellant,v.NORDSTROM, INC., d/b/a/ NORDSTROM RACK, Defendant, Appellee.
MASSACHUSETTS [Hon. F. Dennis Saylor IV, U.S. District Judge]
James Boumil, with whom Boumil Law Offices, Konstantine W.
Kyros, and Law Offices of Konstantine W. Kyros, were on
brief, for appellant.
Craig Cardon, with whom Dylan J. Price, Sheppard Mullin

Circuit Judge.
case is about a sweater with a controversial price tag.
Appellant Judith Shaulis purchased a cardigan sweater for
$49.97 at a Nordstrom Rack outlet store in Boston,
Massachusetts. The price tag attached to that sweater listed
both the purchase price of $49.97 and a higher "Compare
At" price of $218. Shaulis claims that the listed
"Compare At" price was deceptive. The sweater was,
she alleges, never sold by Nordstrom Rack, or any other
retailer, for $218. Instead, Shaulis claims that the
"Compare At" price tags are used by Nordstrom to
mislead consumers about the quality of items. To vindicate
this position, Shaulis filed suit alleging that Nordstrom
had, in violation of Massachusetts statutory and common law,
improperly obtained money from her and other Massachusetts
consumers and requested that a court order Nordstrom to
restore this money and enjoin Nordstrom from continuing to
violate Massachusetts law. The district court, in a
well-reasoned opinion, granted Nordstrom's motion to
dismiss all of Shaulis's claims. We affirm.
facts underlying this case are taken from the second amended
complaint and are presumed true for the purpose of this
appeal. They are fully set forth in the opinion of the
district court. See Shaulis v. Nordstrom Inc., 120
F.Supp.3d 40, 43-44 (D. Mass. 2015).
Defendant Nordstrom, Inc. is a Seattle, Washington-based
corporation that operates department stores throughout the
United States and Canada, including five "Nordstrom
Rack" outlet stores in Massachusetts. Shaulis purchased
a sweater at one of these stores in Boston in 2014. The price
tag attached to the sweater, which included both the $49.97
purchase price and the "Compare At" price of $218,
identified the difference between the two numbers as
"77%" worth of savings.[1]
claims that this price tag was deceptive. According to
Shaulis, although price tags on Nordstrom Rack products
contain both a sale price and a "Compare At" price
that purports to represent a bona fide price at which
Nordstrom (or some other retailer) formerly sold those
products, Nordstrom, in reality, sells goods manufactured by
designers for exclusive sale at its Nordstrom Rack stores,
which means that such items were never sold -- or intended to
be sold -- at the "Compare At" prices advertised on
the price tags. Shaulis claims that she was wrongfully
"[e]nticed by the idea of paying significantly less than
the 'Compare At' price charged outside of Nordstrom
Rack, " and that, but for Nordstrom's deception, she
never would have purchased the sweater.
November 6, 2014, Shaulis initiated this action with a
complaint filed in the Massachusetts Superior Court. She
filed an amended complaint on December 8, 2014, and a second
amended complaint ("SAC") on December 24. The SAC
alleged claims for fraud, breach of contract, unjust
enrichment, violations of the Code of Massachusetts
Regulations and the Federal Trade Commission Act,
[2] and
violations of Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 93A ("Chapter
93A"). The SAC was brought on behalf of herself and all
those similarly situated, and proposed a class consisting of
"[a]ll individuals residing in the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts who, within the applicable statute of
limitations preceding the filing of this action . . .,
purchased Nordstrom Rack Products."
removed the case to federal court and successfully moved to
dismiss the action for failure to state a claim. The district
court held that Shaulis had failed to adequately plead a
legally cognizable injury under Chapter 93A, and further
denied her requests to certify several Chapter 93A questions
to the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court ("SJC")
and for leave to file a third amended complaint. The court
also dismissed all of Shaulis's common law claims, again
citing the failure to plead a legally cognizable injury.
appeal, Shaulis challenges dismissal of her Chapter 93A claim
and her common law claims for fraud, breach of contract, and
unjust enrichment. Our review is de novo. Carter's of
New Bedford, Inc. v. Nike, Inc., 790 F.3d 289, 291 (1st
Cir. 2015). As a federal court sitting in diversity, we apply

Chapter 93A
bulk of Shaulis's appeal involves objections to the
district court's dismissal of her Chapter 93A claim for
damages and injunctive relief.[3] Chapter 93A, commonly known as
the Massachusetts Consumer Protection Act, is a broad
consumer protection statute that provides a private cause of
action for a consumer who "has been injured, "
Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 93A § 9(1), by "unfair or
deceptive acts or practices in the conduct of any trade or
commerce, " id. § 2(a). See Rule v.
Fort Dodge Animal Health, Inc. (Rule II), 607
F.3d 250, 253 (1st Cir. 2010); see also Casavant v.
Norwegian Cruise Line Ltd., 952 N.E.2d 908, 912 (Mass.
2011) ("If any person invades a consumer's legally
protected interests, and if that invasion causes the consumer
a loss --whether that loss be economic or noneconomic -- the
consumer is entitled to redress under our consumer protection
statute." (quoting Hershenow v. Enterprise
Rent-A-Car Co., 840 N.E.2d 526, 535 (Mass. 2006))).
reviewing the relevant Massachusetts regulations,
district court determined that Nordstrom's alleged
pricing scheme "constitut[ed] an unfair or deceptive
practice under Chapter 93A." Shaulis, 120
F.Supp.3d at 48-49. The court further found that Shaulis had
adequately alleged that Nordstrom's deception
"caused" an identifiable "harm" --
namely, that Shaulis had sufficiently alleged that she was
"directly induced" to make a purchase she would not
have made, absent the unfair or deceptive practice.
Id. at 50, 52. The court held, however, that Shaulis
had failed to allege a legally cognizable injury for purposes
of Chapter 93A because Shaulis's "subjective belief
that she did not receive a good value, without more, is not
enough to establish the existence of a Chapter 93A
injury." Id. at 53.
appeal, Shaulis contends that the district court misread the
SJC's Chapter 93A jurisprudence and erroneously concluded
that she had failed to adequately allege a legally cognizable
injury based on Nordstrom's deceptive pricing scheme.
Hence, we first review the relevant case law on Chapter 93A
injuries, and then review Shaulis's claim de novo.
Injury under Chapter 93A
courts -- both state and federal -- have struggled to explain
what constitutes an injury under Chapter 93A. See Tyler
v. Michaels Stores, Inc., 984 N.E.2d 737, 745 n.15
(Mass. 2013) (discussing differing interpretations of earlier
SJC opinions); Rule v. Fort Dodge Animal Health,
Inc. (Rule I), 604 F.Supp.2d 288, 298 (D. Mass.
2009) (noting that case law "construing the Chapter 93A
. . . injury requirement has had a less than intellectually
coherent course of development"). We last explored the
parameters of Chapter 93A injuries in 2010 in Rule
II. That case involved a Chapter 93A claim by a
plaintiff who purchased heartworm medication for her dog,
Luke. 607 F.3d at 251. After administering the medication,
the plaintiff learned that the FDA had recalled the
medication because of harmful side effects. Id.
Plaintiff then brought a class action against the
manufacturer of the heartworm medication, alleging that,
although Luke was none the worse for wear, she had overpaid
for the medication. Id. at 251-52. Plaintiff's
theory of the case was that "she purchased [the
medication] because of a deception (failure to disclose the
risk), the product was 'in reality' worth less than
she paid for it (because of that undisclosed risk), "
and thus she had suffered "injury, " the measure of
her damages being "the difference between what she paid
and what she would have paid if the risk had been
disclosed." Id. at 253.
central issue in Rule II was whether a "per
se" theory of injury -- that is, a claim that the
deception itself is the requisite injury -- was sufficient to
state a claim under Chapter 93A. Or, as we put the question
in Rule II: whether "[C]hapter 93A injury
requires that a plaintiff who seeks to recover show
'real' economic damages, " or whether
"injury as a violation of some abstract 'right'
like the right not to be subject to a deceptive act that
happened to cause no economic harm" was sufficient.
Id. We noted that the plaintiff had suffered no
"economic injury in the traditional sense" because
she had "used up" the medication for its advertised
purpose without ill effect, and she thus held nothing of
reduced value nor faced any risk of harm. Id. at
255. We acknowledged, however, that if Rule had sued before
Luke consumed the medication, she may have been able to claim
injury based on her overpayment theory, because she would
have possessed medication that was not what she bargained
for. Id.
reaching this decision, we observed that "the most
recent SJC cases" had "moved away" from the
"per se" theory of injury supported by earlier
cases -- that is, a claim that an unfair or deceptive act
alone constitutes injury -- and had "returned to the
notion that injury under [C]hapter 93A means economic injury
in the traditional sense." Id. at 254-55;
see also Rule I, 604 F.Supp.2d at 298-306 (surveying
the development of the SJC's Chapter 93A jurisprudence).
Specifically, we contrasted the SJC's earlier opinions in
Leardi v. Brown, 474 N.E.2d 1094 (Mass. 1985), and
Aspinall v. Philip Morris Cos., 813 N.E.2d 476
(Mass. 2004), with more recent opinions in
Hershenow, 840 N.E.2d at 526, and Iannacchino v.
Ford Motor Co., 888 N.E.2d 879 (Mass. 2008), which had
rejected the "per se" theory of injury. See
Hershenow 840 N.E.2d at 535 ("A consumer is not . .
. entitled to redress under [Chapter 93A], where no loss has
occurred."); Iannacchino, 888 N.E.2d at 886-87
(explaining that, if properly alleged, a claim that
plaintiffs own vehicles with defective door handles, in
violation of federal safety regulations, would support a
cause of action under Chapter 93A because plaintiffs would
have paid for fully compliant vehicles, which they did not
receive). We acknowledged, however, that there may remain
certain "exceptions" to this general rule, embodied
in older SJC opinions that have not been expressly overruled,

The number one reason to wear sunglasses is to protect the eyes and the area around the eye from ultraviolet light from the sun.
Kinds of Ultraviolet (UV) Light
Ultraviolet (also known as UV light) comes in the three different types; Ultraviolet A (UVA), Ultraviolet B (UVB), Ultraviolet C (UVC). All three of these types of light come from our friend the sun. While all types of UV light are dangerous for our eye health, not all reach our eyes in the same way.
For instance most of the UVC is filtered out by the clouds and the atmosphere before it makes it from the sun to earth. Because of this UVC is not as essential to worry about over UVA and UVB, that you will certainly want protection from.
Sunglasses to Protect from UV
When the ultraviolet light hit our skin or hit our eyes, they can cause damage to the chemicals and protein that are in our body. You can see this once you are out of the sun and your skin starts to turn tan or burn from the ultraviolet light. This is the sun's rays modifying components of your skin and if done too often can cause long term skin cancer and irreversible pigmentation problems.
Just like with your skin the ultraviolet light can damage eyes by causing cataracts, macular degeneration…
Thankfully most types of sunglasses offer a protection from both of UVA and UVB light waves coming from the sun.
Some Important Uses of Sunglasses
Sunglasses have many eye related advantages.
Most of the artificial lens we use now have UV protection built into the lens implant. This is helpful because with those lens implants that filter all UV light that passes into the eye, helps to lower macular degeneration by blocking the UV light before it gets back into the retina.
Another advantage of wearing sunglasses is that it improves glare, especially Polarised sunglasses which filter out some of the light that is coming into your eye and can obstruct with your vision. For example, especially fishermen and people under the water like to wear polarised sunglasses because it helps counter off some of the reflection coming from the water.
On top of all these things, sunglasses also improve contrast sensitivity, which means when you out in bright sunlight, a lot of colors is seen washed out too bright for your eye to handle, making you see color better.
Other Sources of UV Rays
Outside, the lights in our surrounding environments continue to change, and the light can vary according to the time of the day, weather condition and also the season. Visible and also invisible rays reflect off the surfaces around us and can come from every direction.
Whatever the intensity the sun emits visible light that enables us to see our environment and also invisible rays. Some of this rays can be dangerous UV rays and blue-violet light.
Luckily the pupil, our natural diaphragm, adjusts our eyes to the amount of light needed. So when the light intensity is low the pupil dilates and vice versa. When light is too bright the eye dazzle, then it is necessary to wear sunglasses that reduce the intensity of light and relief the pupil.

When to Visit Andaman & Nicobar Island?
If you are planning to take an Andaman island tour then you can visit both in winter and summer season. However, if you wish to experience scuba diving and jungle treks here then a good time to visit would be from November to March.
Don't plan a trip in the monsoon season as Andaman experiences high tides which makes it unsuitable for water adventures and relaxing.
Best Islands to visit in Andaman & Nicobar
Here are a few islands that should definitely be a part of your Andaman island tour. Make sure that you look out for a good Andaman tour package which includes these destinations before selecting it for yourself.
Havelock Island
Known for its exotic beaches, turquoise blue waters, and fascinating coral reefs, Havelock Island is one the best islands in Andaman. If you are planning to try snorkeling or scuba diving then this should definitely be a part of your Andaman island tour.
Neil Island
Another popular Andaman island which is well-known for its beautiful and exotic beaches is the Neil Island. The paddy fields, tropical trees, and the sandy white beaches make it a popular island for relaxing and chilling.
So, if you want to spend some time in a relaxed and peaceful place then Neil Island should definitely be in your itinerary.
Ross Island
A less frequented island in Andaman which boasts of natural beauty is the Ross Island. This island was quite popular in the colonial era which is why you would come across a lot of historical ruins here.
So, if you are fascinated by nature or historical buildings then Ross Island is the place for you to go.
North Bay Island
Another gem which you should definitely see on your Andaman island tour is the North Bay Island. Here, you will get a chance to see the most stunning coral reefs and will also spot several lobsters, shellfishes, etc.
You can bask in the sun here or go for sea walking, snorkeling, scuba diving, etc. to explore the underwater world properly.
Ross and Smith Island
Finally, you cannot miss the Ross and Smith Island which are known as the twin islands and are connected with a thin sandbar which makes it quite remarkable. You get to witness the most beautiful sights around here and can also observe some really remarkable sunsets here.
This place is also good for clicking Instagram-worthy photographs if that is something which interests you.

Looking for a low current disconnect.DrkAngel wrote:I recently reviewed a video that indicated that one type of battery deterioration was directly related to time spent charging.
It seems that the graphite becomes plated with lithium during the charge cycle.
Reducing the time spent charging, increasing amps, reduces the degree of plating per Ah of charge.
So ...
I will upgrade my 25.9V 5A charger to 10A. (25.9V 25.92Ah battery)
I will upgrade my 36V 4.5A charger to 10-15A. (33.3V 31.2Ah battery)
Li-ion (Laptop LiCo) are variously recommended at .5C-.8C charge rate
Much of the charging time is the low amperage "topping charge".
This, seems to be the most unproductive-damaging portion of the charge cycle.
By charging at 4.20V but disconnecting charger at 4.02V for my Sanyo 18650 packs and at 4.12V for my Lipo packs, I hope to more quickly attain optimal charged voltage while minimizing the reputably damaging, prolonged charge cycle.
By charging once to optimal voltage,
then applying 4.20V charge,
then noting charge amps ...
I can charge at 4.20V and disconnect when charging current diminishes to the predetermined amps.
Added Volt - Amp adjustment and meter to charger ...
charges faster,
damages battery less-prolongs life
and if not disconnected at optimal time, still limits battery voltage to the "safe" oem recommended voltage!
A "switch" that disconnects charge power as current reduces to a determined amps would be ideal!
In the meantime I have begun manually disconnecting charger as amps reduce to predetermined point.


text: THE HOOK Rihanna Teams with MAC Cosmetics 2/20/2013 by Gregory DelliCarpini Jr. FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Rihanna/Instagram, MAC Cosmetics Rihanna, MAC Rihanna's set to launch MAC lines this May as she starts her tour. On the heels of her River Island fashion debut at London Fashion week, Rihanna has landed a pretty sweet deal with MAC Cosmetics. The "Stay" singer called the collaboration a "no-brainer" in an interview with WWD and has joined forces with the beauty brand on several color collections launching this year. "When you think of makeup, the brand that pops into your mind—for something legit—is MAC," Rihanna said. "Whatever color you want, it's like, 'Let's go to MAC.' I've been using MAC on tour for such a long time it was a natural fit for me. I have always loved makeup, and I always said that if I do it, I want to do it with a credible brand." Contained in pretty pink packaging, the first item to hit stores is titled RiRi Woo. It's a sultry flame-colored lipstick inspired by her favorite MAC red, Ruby Woo. And that's not all! The Bajan beauty's collection will also feature a summer line with two additional lipsticks: Lustre Drops and blush, a fall line with four lipsticks, lip gloss, eye shadows and false lashes, and lastly a holiday line of 10 cheery items including nail polish and more lipstick. "I really got to play," Rihanna explained on the process of working with the beauty brand. "There's so much to choose from, and you can mix different textures with different colors and different greens in different eye shadows. I learned so much about the detail of makeup and what makes things look different. What makes it apply different is really important. Every little detail is important." The release of the MAC and Rih's line will coincide with her "Diamonds" tour show on May 4 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. MAC will open a pop-up shop there on the first night to reveal the new line. FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME

I took the bus to work yesterday, and in the afternoon I took the #163 from work that I normally take. Just before leaving the office, an email thread was developing among friends about a group meeting for a drink. I had to get moving to catch my bus, to make it anywhere on time. So I continued my correspondence from the bus on my phone. It was decided that we'd meet at Charlie Hooper's in Brookside, which was really easy for me. As the bar is within about twenty feet of one of the stops for the bus I was riding, I was the first one there by at least a half an hour.
I was amazed by the crowds in Brookside. It was 5:15pm on Halloween afternoon, and costumed children were out in droves. I guess I should have expected the trick-or-treat crowds, but I hadn't. Two things struck me as strange about the crowds. First, the sun was still lingering in the sky. Darkness wasn't even possible with squinted eyes, and what appeared to be the bulk of the trick-or-treating appeared to be happening then. These kids looked like they'd be done with their annual candy sojourn by dinner. What happened to Halloween?
I don't have much of a memory of this, but I can only assume that at least when we were really little, we were accompanied by one of both of our parents, or a neighborly equivalent, as we giddily held pillowcases toward our eager neighbors for Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. But when I was older, but still young enough not to draw inquisitive looks for trick-or-treating, my brother, sister, and a couple neighbor kids would take the neighborhood on our own, the oldest of us being no more than ten or eleven. Many kids of this age were out and about in Brookside yesterday, and they all had adults in tow.
Maybe I just grew up in another town, but I don't think that's it. I think I just grew up in another time.
Anyway, I grabbed a seat at a comfortable low table, ordered a 90 Shilling, a bowl of chili, and a basket of waffle-cut fries. I had completed my first glass of beer, eaten my dinner, and read a chapter by the time Terra walked up. We sat and talked until Erp arrived. Matt joined us for a while, and an all-around nice time was had. I was home by 9pm.
Pumpkins lit, candy at the ready, and then I waited...and waited...aaaand waited. Nothing. No trick-or-treaters. Damn! What am I going to do with all of this candy? I decided that Halloween is my favorite holiday, but yes, I concur, WHERE IS IT?
10:30 AM, Nov 1, 2006
The waffle fries at Hooper's are awesome.
10:43 AM, Nov 1, 2006
Yeah, now there's all this crap about having to be back inside by 6pm, I think trick or treating after dark is a minor offense in some places. Ridiculous, I know.
7:09 PM, Nov 1, 2006
This is ancient history by now. I won't talk again about it until I'm shocked next year.

ST. MARYS, Pa. – The University of Pittsburgh at Bradford will introduce its new plan to offer its associate of arts degree in liberal studies in St. Marys at open houses July 17 and 26.
The open houses will take place from 5 to 8 p.m. July 17 and noon to 4 p.m. July 26 in the lobby of the Community Education Council of Elk and Cameron Counties, 4 Erie Ave., St. Marys, for those who are interested in a two-year degree or courses available in St. Marys.
Students in the program have the option to pursue either a course of general studies or include a series of criminal justice courses. The courses will be delivered either in person, online or through interactive television instruction.
All of the courses scheduled for the fall semester take place after 4 p.m., with most starting at 6 p.m., noted Bob Dilks Jr., director of transfer and nontraditional student recruitment, making them more available to students who work during the day.
The criminal justice course sequence will cover a broad range of topics that can apply to a bachelor's degree in criminal justice offered on the Bradford campus or toward another degree.
The program is designed to be completed in two years, although students with previous college experience could potentially transfer those college credits into the program.
Criminal justice topics during the two-year series will include causes of crime, drug trafficking, police use of force, terrorism, ethics, incarceration and recidivism, juvenile justice, search and seizure, racial profiling and community-based corrections.
Students who do not wish to pursue the criminal justice courses can substitute other online courses.
Courses planned on site for the fall semester are Introduction to Criminal Justice, English Composition I and Fundamentals of Mathematics. Violence and Crime and American Political Process will be delivered by interactive television.
Dilks and a member of the faculty will be available at the open house to answer questions about the program, transferability and financial aid.
For more information, contact Dilks at 1-800-872-1787 or firstname.lastname@example.com. More information is also available on the Pitt-Bradford website at www.upb.pitt.edu/stmarys.aspx.
