I love cold pasta salads in the summertime, this cold Parmesan cheese pasta salad is an easy salad to make and perfect for the warm summer weather.
I am finally starting to use the herbs in my garden. Fresh herbs seem to have so much more flavor than the dried ones that you buy in the store. So I have to say that I am enjoying having them in the garden this year. Hopefully I will have more posts featuring more of the herbs from our garden,
My herbs thank goodness are doing well, but not so for some of the other things in our garden. This year we have an abundant amount of rabbits hanging around the garden, so the rest of the garden is not doing so well. We have a few broccoli plants that the rabbits seem to love and there is not much left of them. Then there are the green beans, I think that they love those even more than the broccoli plants. Just the stems of the green bean plants are left and when they start to grow out a little bit the rabbits are right there to eat them off again.
The funny thing is that we have lettuce in the garden and they have not eaten any of that. I was sure if they would eat anything that they would have been all over the lettuce. Oh yeah, then there are the potted plants behind the house, they seem to like those too. My flower plants are just stubs now. I have decided that I am not a fan of rabbits.
Well back to the recipe. As I mentioned this is a simple pasta salad that comes together quickly. The Parmesan cheese along with the fresh herbs, onion, and garlic make this salad the perfect side for any dish. You can add different vegetables if you prefer to change it up a bit, but it is tasty with the onion and green pepper.
- 16 ounce box of your favorite pasta
- 20 or more cherry tomatoes cut in half
- 2 cloves of garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons red onion minced
- 1/2 medium green pepper chopped
- 1 tablespoon parsley minced
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
- Salt to taste optional
- Cook box of pasta according to the directions on the box
- While the pasta is cooking prepare the vegetable and the herbs.
- Once the pasta is cooked,cool completely add the prepared vegetables and herb and mix until well blended.
- In a container that has a tight lid add the olive oil, white wine vinegar, and Parmesan cheese, shake until blend. Add to the pasta and mix well. Add salt if desired to taste.

Rain Or Shine saddened by Tiu retirement
MANILA — Caloy Garcia said Rain or Shine was saddened by the decision of Chris Tiu to retire from professional basketball at the age of 33.
"Of course, we're sad about it," the Elasto Painters' head coach said on Thursday during the first Philippine Basketball Association Media Day at the Solaire Tent in Parañaque City.
On what they will miss from Tiu, who announced his retirement on Tuesday, Garcia replied, "Yung leadership nya (His leadership). It's the hardest quality to find. That's what he really brought to the table."
He, however, bared that Tiu actually thought about deferring early retirement after his 30-point explosion in his swan song.
"Chris already told me before his last game that he plans to retire, but after the way we played, we tried to convince him to stay. Medyo na-convince pa namin yun eh (We convinced him a little)," Garcia relayed how he and the rest of the team management wooed Tiu to play another year.
But in the end, Tiu's family and business commitments mattered in his huge decision.
"He has a family to think about. He has his business. At the end of the day, we have to look for other players to replace him. It's gonna be difficult, but at the same time, we're happy for him," Garcia added. (PNA)

Comparação entre softwares médicos
O artigo científico em anexo fez uma comparação excelente entre todos os aplicativos visualizadores de imagens médicas gratuitos disponíveis, de todos os sistemas operacionais (Linux, Windows e Mac). A conclusão final é que o OsiriX é o melhor de todos, o único que oferece todas as ferramentas pesquisadas. O artigo é muito interessante. Artigo completo disponível para assinantes.
O site http://www.idoimaging.com/ possui a lista completa desses visualizadores.
Open source software in a practical approach for post processing of radiologic images.
Valeri G1, Mazza FA, Maggi S, Aramini D, La Riccia L, Mazzoni G, Giovagnoni A.
The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the use of open source software (OSS) to process DICOM images.
We selected 23 programs for Windows and 20 programs for Mac from 150 possible OSS programs including DICOM viewers and various tools (converters, DICOM header editors, etc.). The programs selected all meet the basic requirements such as free availability, stand-alone application, presence of graphical user interface, ease of installation and advanced features beyond simple display monitor. Capabilities of data import, data export, metadata, 2D viewer, 3D viewer, support platform and usability of each selected program were evaluated on a scale ranging from 1 to 10 points.
Twelve programs received a score higher than or equal to eight. Among them, five obtained a score of 9: 3D Slicer, MedINRIA, MITK 3M3, VolView, VR Render; while OsiriX received 10.
OsiriX appears to be the only program able to perform all the operations taken into consideration, similar to a workstation equipped with proprietary software, allowing the analysis and interpretation of images in a simple and intuitive way. OsiriX is a DICOM PACS workstation for medical imaging and software for image processing for medical research, functional imaging, 3D imaging, confocal microscopy and molecular imaging. This application is also a good tool for teaching activities because it facilitates the attainment of learning objectives among students and other specialists.

Adolescent Youth Friendly Space
The Adolescent Youth Friendly Space (AYFS) is situated in Philippi. A poor community with an HIV rate of 1 in every 3 women and 1 in every 10 men, with new infections sitting predominantly with the youth. The AYFS has increased HIV testing amongst youth from 10% to 30% as well as increased knowledge and expression around these issues.
The AYFS has become a place of hope, education, learning, expression, joy and sharing of ideas. We believe that through debates and discussions on sexual reproductive health, HIV, LGBTQ support groups, dance, art and music we can make a difference to the youth struggling with poverty in Philippi.
The Adolescent Youth Friendly Space
The aim of the AYFS is to provide a safe, creative space for vulnerable youth to meet and access services in a friendly environment. There are various different programs running at the AYFS that the youth can join after school. Some of the creative programs include arts, theatre, music, dancing, and DJ lessons. There is also HIV testing, HIV knowledge sessions, counselling, family planning services, LGBTQ support and computers with WiFi for homework and research.
Amandla Development, CESVI Foundation and Sizakuyenza are in partnership to strengthen the capacity of community structures and networks to prevent HIV infection, unintended pregnancies, school dropout and other poverty-related issues youth in Philippi face.

So over the past week or so I've been playing around with a few things. I dragged out my Wacom from wherever it had been hiding on my desk and I hashed out several sketches using white on pastel colours. I'm very much used to doing things in black and white, so I thought I'd shake things up a bit; it's always good to get out of your comfort zone!
I also went to the library recently and found a book called Graphic Style Lab (2015) by Steven Heller (I'm such a fangirl for his books). I flicked through it quickly at the library and thought, "hm, cool pictures, good for inspiration". But when I got home and actually sat down to read through it, I discovered (on the front page, how embarrassing) that it said, "develop your own style with 50 hands-on exercises".
Most people will cringe at having to do 'exercises', the very word creating reminiscent visions of having to sit in their Typography 101 class and make the words like POP and CRACKLE and BANG look like they sound. But as I got more into this book (which I will happily put a Book Depository link for at the bottom of my post) I realised that these exercises sounded really exciting. For example, the first one is: "Create an album cover that parodies famous Russian avant-garde design using a photo of yourself." Amazing right?! Don't worry, it's not as difficult as it may sound. There are step by step instructions, and even encouragements that dare you to think outside the box!
I thought that instead of doing these exercises by myself, I'd do a little collaboration of sorts with my wonderful partner in crime and all other things, Jordy (the link to his website would go here, but Muse is our next collab project ;)). We will each complete the exercises, all while not looking at what the other has created until the very end. And then I'll post the results up here! Ideally we should complete at least one a week, so keep checking back for more updates!
One final thing, I am also beginning a project involving stencilled greeting cards, so perhaps that will appear on my blog at some point too.
Graphic Style Lab (2015) by Steven Heller is available for purchase here.
Wonderful news, friends!
My hair now matches my website!
But don't worry, the colour has absolutely no affect on my ability to design! If anything I think it just shows more of my personality! Well, I hope it does anyway. Old people have been giving me funny looks...
I'm also working on some quick digital drawings after not using my Wacom in what feels like an age. Will be uploading those soon!
Process and... art journaling?
I'm all about process. There's no better feeling than seeing design concepts and sketches come to life before your eyes. I spent a lot of time on my graduate project looking into the different aspects of the design process in others before I was able to turn it around on myself and notice my own processes. I believe that the process of a project is just as important as the final product; it shows a journey and a connection between an initial idea and the physical design it ends up becoming. It's a transformation and a visual representation of the ability to do none other than create. The design process is a beautiful thing, and it's always been something that I've prided myself on in my work.
Months ago I started a journal (Moleskine, obviously. Is there any other option?). It was originally intended to be a journal for personal design projects, but as the year progressed it turned into a therapeutic tool, and then finally something I had never expected it to be: an art journal.
The first project I wanted to work on was a documentation of my recovery with depression. I wanted to raise awareness of mental illness through design, and although The Project (that's what I named it, so original) never quite took off, it gave me a driving force and an ultimate purpose. I've always wanted to "change the world with one poster", so I think if I can somehow use my design skills to change the stigma surrounding mental illness one day, then I would have succeeded my life goal.
Looking back on my journal made me think a lot about process, so I thought I'd share a few photos of the progression of my journal from the beginning of the year to present, and then a few more images of my workbooks. My workbooks are always my favourite thing about my design projects. Click on the images for the caption!
Todays study: Chrysanthemums
My partner gave me a bouquet of Chrysanthemums weeks ago and lately I've been watching them slowly whither and die atop my dresser draw. In light of this brief realisation that beauty fades, I quickly took up my fineliner and began doing various sketches and doodles.
From the genus Chrysanthemum, within the family Asteraceae, these flowers are native to Asia and northeastern Europe, and are often referred to as mums or chrysanths. Upon researching them I discovered that there are so many horticultural varieties and cultivars, and for some reason am realising now that I would often mistake them for daisies when I was younger.
These sketches are also the beginning of vague concepts for a tattoo I'd like to get on the inside of my right wrist. Symbolically the tattoo will represent the first bouquet of flowers my partner bought me, and it is also the hand he holds. No need to tell me how lame it is! It's much prettier than just getting someone's name permanently etched into my body.
Welcome to my blog! This is where I post recent things I've been up to, mental health updates, and other cool things! Thanks for stopping by!

Anchors are my thang! (I even have a tattoo) So when I had a chance to make a craft project at work, I of course had to make something fun to take to the beach. So I sketched out my project and it luckily came out exactly how I expected it to. I wish I could have taken better pictures but it wasn't possible with how busy I was at work.
Items used for this project:
Tulip Soft Paints: Turquoise, Holiday Green, & Mandarin Orange
Tulip Slicks: Turquoise
Tulip Fashion Glitter: Turquoise & Glitter Bond
Tote Bag
Painters Tape
Freezer Paper
Exacto Knife
Paint Brush
I first used painters tape to make 2″ stripes across the bag and painted the stripes Mandarin Orange.
Once it's dry, I removed the tape. I used an exacto blade to cut out an anchor from freezer paper. Ironed on the freezer paper to the bag. I then mixed the Holiday Green and Turquoise Soft Paints( to match the color of the Turquoise Slick paint) to paint the anchor. Once it's dry, remove the freezer paper and outline with the Slicks 3D paint.
With the felt, I cut out a smaller anchor and covered both sides with the turquoise glitter. I then cut a small hole with the exacto blade to string to the tote bag.

How to kick troubling thoughts to the curb
Have you ever been troubled by your thoughts? Maybe you know what it is like to be burdened by chronic worry, fear, despair, or anger. Sometimes our minds can feel like a battleground. However, as a Child of God, we don't have to let negative thoughts live "rent free" in our minds. In fact, the Bible talks about taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ (see 2 Cor 10:5). In this article, we will walk through the steps to kick troubling thoughts to the curb.

Far Cry 5 from Ubisoft, the latest game in the popular shooter series, is out now - and like previous games Far Cry 3 and 4, players only start with two weapons - and a further two weapons slot can be unlocked. Unlike those games however, in Far Cry 5 you can't unlock those slots by hunting animals and crafting. In fact it's a little confusing.
So let your pals at GameWatcher help you out with our Far Cry 5 Guide on How To Get More Weapon Slots!
Check out our list of the Best Shooters on PC!
Far Cry 5 Starting Weapons
After the initial scene when the game begins proper, you'll have access to the following weapon slots:
Far Cry 5 How To Unlock More Weapons Slots
Weapon Slot 3 can be unlocked by buying the 'Additional Holster' Perk, seen above, in the Prepper type of the Perks menu. It costs a very expensive 8 Perk Points, but is certainly worth it. Check out our Perks Guide on how to get Perk Points quickly.
While it costs a lot, despite its position on the Perks page remember that Far Cry 5 doesn't have a linear unlock tree - so the moment you have 8 Perk Points you can unlock it straight away.
Weapon Slot 4 is more complicated. You'll need to have drawn out and defeated one of main villain Joseph Seed's brothers or sisters to get it. It's recommended that you head to take on John Seed first at Fall's End in Holland Valley. You'll need to scout around the area, doing side quests, liberating outposts, and building up the Resistance level, and when that's done John Seed will challenge you.
Defeat him and you still won't immediately get the 4th Weapon Slot - it'll just be unlocked in your Perks menu. The 'Weapon Collector' Perk will give you the next Weapon Slot, and it costs a further 9 Perk Points, so hopefully you have them all saved up by this point.
For more information on how to get ahead in Far Cry 5, check out our Perks and How To Get Perk Points Guide!

Some peoples feel tired after hard work in their office, so they order the food from the restaurants. Many types of companies and delivery service organizations give different ads to promote their business. Like the same the food delivery service is the easiest way for starting a new business as compared to all other food services businesses. Actually the food delivery service doesn't require any type table arrangements and also food service by waiters etc.
All the food delivery services require a small counter with telephone line. You can easily cook in your kitchen and can easily deliver desired foods of the customers. The things which you need for this home based food delivery service are a counter, telephone line, kitchen, van, and delivery person. In most of the food delivery services there are two or three employees who deliver the food.

The tips for starting this business are to choose a niche market where you can easily get those customers who requires food nearly everyday. Always try your own personal chef services and you can also make a deal with the chef to prepare food and deliver to all of his customers. This is simplest way to earn money and it does not require any type of big investment for starting this business. It is clear that in every business there is money whether you start it with less investment or with big investment.

Today I'm going to review Konad iloje Flobu eye shadow in white pearl. I really don't know how to pronounce the word 'iloje' (E-LO-J). :P
You can check out it's site here : http://ilojeflobu.com/ and there you can also watch it's never seen commercial ad.
When I first saw this eye shadow on nailsandbeauty.in online shopping site. I noticed it's packaging and small butterfly impression on it after which I made my mind to buy it.
On eye shadow there is an impression of beautiful butterfly.
Pros :
- Beautiful texture of eye shadow, it just melts on your eyelids.
- Really Long-lasting.
- Does not flake or fall. Even when I was applying it, it doesn't fall out.
- No creasing.
- Rich colors.
- 10 shades to choose.
- 3D eye makeup, its subtle pearls change according to the angle of the light.
- (There is one more thing which I really liked, I mentioned it after cons).
Cons :
- None. Yes, there is nothing. This product is available only online which can be the minus point, but I personally don't think that. :)
* When I first applied it gently on my eyes, it gives very light shade with pearly finish which was perfect for day look but when I applied more it becomes darker with more pearly effect which can definitely rock the night look.
Rating : 5/5
This is the first product I rated 5/5.
It's a great product, definitely recommend it to you girls. Do try it.
And yes, it's also available in urbontouch.com with discount (MRP:

Google's Not So Top Terms & Top US Gainers For 2006
This is another key example of what to look for in finding your key words and terms to use.
Unless you're in the porn industry, you are already filtering your own results on Google Trends.
One interesting application I've stumbled on is to find top-ranking terms in Google Trends and then plug them into Google Adwords/Keyword tool to find their own related synonyms and rank them accordingly. Vice-versa, you can see if a keyword/adword has long-term viability.
"Law of Attraction", for instance, only takes off within the last year (although it hasn't peaked yet).
In testing my own site (gothunkyourself.com), I found that because I had republished Napoleon Hill, I was associated with Rich Dad, Poor Dad and Robert Kiyosaki. But that is because someone is paying a great deal of money to hype those terms. So, caveat emptor.

When comparing Cloud and non-Cloud Storage it can be difficult to ensure that the comparison is fair. In this paper we examine the process of setting up such a comparison and the metric used. Performance comparisons on Cloud and non Cloud systems, deployed for biomedical scientists, have been conducted to identify improvements of efficiency and performance. Prior to the experiments, network latency, file size and job failures were identified as factors which degrade performance and experiments were conducted to understand their impacts. Organizational Sustainability Modeling (OSM) is used before, during and after the experiments to ensure fair comparisons are achieved. OSM defines the actual and expected execution time, risk control rates and is used to understand key outputs related to both Cloud and non-Cloud experiments. Forty experiments on both Cloud and non Cloud systems were undertaken with two case studies. The first case study was focused on transferring and backing up 10,000 files of 1 GB each and the second case study was focused on transferring and backing up 1,000 files 10 GB each. Results showed that first, the actual and expected execution time on the Cloud was lower than on the non-Cloud system. Second, there was more than 99% consistency between the actual and expected execution time on the Cloud while no comparable consistency was found on the non-Cloud system. Third, the improvement in efficiency was higher on the Cloud than the non-Cloud. OSM is the metric used to analyze the collected data and provided synthesis and insights to the data analysis and visualization of the two case studies.

Napoli President Says Club Rejected Man City's €50M Bid for Jorginho
Napoli chairman Aurelio di Laurentiis has admitted that the club have turned down a bid from Manchester City for in-demand midfielder Jorginho. The 26-year-old was reported to be on the verge of a switch to the Etihad earlier on in the week, but di Laurentiis seems to have quashed that rumor.
Pep Guardiola doesn't want too many new signings at Man City this summer, but Jorginho is believed to be one of the names at the top of his list. It was claimed that both City and Napoli had agreed upon a €50m deal including bonuses, but Aurelio has moved to deny the claims.
"I have turned down €45m plus €5m in bonuses from City for Jorginho," he said, according to Football Italia.
Ideally, de Laurentiis would like to keep hold of Jorginho this summer, but a move to the Premier League still seems likely. Though the midfielder may depart, di Laurentiis claims that the arrival of Carlo Ancelotti will be key to Napoli's improvement - and the transfer market will have a hand in that.
"Carlo is the key to the internationalization of Napoli. He wants to keep 80 per cent of the current squad, he considers it to be of a great level.
"Our targets are a goalkeeper, a fullback, a central midfielder and a winger.
"From 10-31 July Carlo will be able to assess the squad and make some decisions. Then, on 4 August we are in Dublin to play Liverpool and we will see his first Napoli team."
Napoli came close to pulling Juventus from the top of the Serie A pile last season, but eventually failed. This coming term, Ancelotti will be hoping to do one better and take the Scudetto from the Turing outfit.

The 2011 Bonga oil spill incident from an offshore field operated by Shell Nigeria Production and Exploration Company affected at least 168,000 victims in 350 communities in Delta and Bayelsa.
Howells Levi, Paramount Ruler of Olobia Community at Koluama in Southern Ijaw Local Government Area, Bayelsa, stated this in an interview on Monday in Yenagoa.
He noted that the oil spill victims were fishermen ordered by oil industry regulators to withdraw from fishing activities to avoid netting contaminated fish.
Mr. Levi said the fishermen were deprived of their income whilst the oil spill response and cleanup activities lasted and deserved to be compensated for the loss of income.
Operational error at SNEPCO in 2011 led to the discharge of 40,000 barrels of oil into the Atlantic Ocean.
The House of Representatives and National Oil Spills Detection and Response Agency had in December 2014 recommended a compensation of $3.96 billion for victims of the incident.
Mr. Levi said the just concluded verification of claims of impacted people revealed that six LGAs along the Atlantic coastline in Delta and Bayelsa were negatively affected by the oil spill incident.
"The Bonga spill incident elicited a lot of claims many of which were very frivolous; initially more than 2,000 communities inundated Shell asking for compensation," he said.
"But when we appointed Attorneys and conducted a verification exercise it was streamlined and we found out that 168,000 persons in 350 communities suffered the negative impact of the spill.
"The impacted LGAs are Ekeremo, Southern Ijaw and Brass in Brass while Warri North, Warri South and Burutu in Delta and each of the council areas produced 28,000 victims."
The monarch explained that the coastal settlements affected by the Bonga spill in Delta and Bayelsa resolved to set up a Spill Impact Verification Committee to fashion out a framework for compensation by SNEPCO.
According to him, the victims were scrutinized to ensure that only fishermen who reside along the Atlantic were verified and each person was made to made to depose to an affidavit.
"The purpose was to verify the claims before they are submitted to SNEPCO for payment because we do not want people with frivolous and unsubstantiated claims to endanger the case of genuine victims," Mr. Levi said.

How to Provide Good Customer Digital Experience in the UAE?
We live in the digital era. Millennials have grown up and even run businesses of their own. Thus, it is vital for a UAE company to be tech savvy and provide good customer digital experience. Therefore, it is very central to keep client experience in mind when you are developing your digital strategy.
One of the most common mistakes brands make is related to the fact that they think of applications first and customers second. The first rule of providing great customer digital experience runs as follows: First study the demographics and your customers' behavior, and then focus on the tools and applications.
The second thing you have to know in order to avoid failure in providing customer digital experience is that simplified customer digital experience doesn't always equal good client experience. This is not always the case as it is much more important to make this experience familiar. Customers have certain expectations concerning the process, so eliminating some steps might be confusing rather than facilitating. This means that looking for a good customer digital experience clients are not always primarily interested in the speed of the transaction. They have to feel confident about what they do.
Now we've come to the third thing that influences customer digital experience in a bad way. Surprisingly, this one is related to an online chat. If while a client is doing some research and scrolling down your website, they are constantly distracted by a request to talk to one of the managers in an online chat, they are very likely to leave. The same goes for pop-up advertisement – they increase the bounce rate. Customers are irritated by it and will probably think of your brand as of a company interested exclusively in selling rather than helping them solve a certain problem.
Therefore, in order to provide good customer digital experience you have to provide enough information to help the customer make a decision and solve the problem. The most important thing that goes for both customer digital experience and customer experience in the traditional way is being client-oriented. This is the right approach for any business in the UAE in both areas.
Before you start convincing your potential client to buy something, help them to learn more about the issue they are interested in or a problem they would like to solve. This is one of the ways to provide good customer digital experience. If customers trust you, it is much easier to involve them and give them an incentive to buy something.
Everyone has gone online nowadays, including businesses. True, it is important for clients how good your website is. They pay attention to its design and the speed of transactions. However, it is still more important how well you understand your customers' needs for a good customer digital experience. Consumers are always to looking for the same thing – they want to solve a particular problem. As long as you think of their needs first and tools and technologies second, your business will be successful. However, it is equally important to pay attention to both as technologies play a crucial role in providing good UAE customer digital experience.

Customer Handoff & Final Project Documentation
Table of Contents
Team Vision for Final Demo and Handoff
During this final phase, our team planned on using the 3D printed 3 lb robot to serve as a test platform for the code. We would also work on making a new 30 lb robot chassis with fixes for the flaws in the previous design. Unfortunately, the motors used for the 3D printed robot were too large to fit in their designated areas, so they had to be mounted externally in a less secure fashion. This resulted in the robot breaking apart when spun up for the first time. There was not enough time left in the semester to redesign and reprint a new chassis, so that plan was scrapped. The 30 lb chassis went much better; it was machined in about a week and preliminary fit tests of the components yielded positive results. The new wheel assemblies in this chassis have much less friction than before, which when coupled with the use of timing belts, the better belt drive ratio, and the slightly wider spacing of the wheels, should greatly improve our spin up performance while reducing our theoretical max speed.

Plans for Wrap-up
The plan is for Stephen to continue the project through to its completion with some assistance from Jacob as well as any other team members interested. We would like the new version of Polar Storm to be fully assembled this summer and begin testing and coding then. We hope to have the code and robot completely ready well before Motorama 2019, where we plan on competing again.
Recommendations for future work
Future work would entail a couple of things. First would be making the 30 lb bot second revision functional and ready for competition. Second, would be making the small robot work, including printing a new chassis, manufacturing motor reinforcements, assembly and finally code.
In general, future work could entail the completion of the absolute reference software, and subsequent testing related with that. Ultimately, this software would not be as beneficial in Battle Bot competitions because of the unpredictability of connection and ensuring the bot would be fail proof. At some point it might be possible to implement it, although the standard controller is currently preferred.

1980 Topps - Mike Jorgensen.
Following Pat Putnam's beating Jorgensen for the first base job in 1979, the Rangers traded for Willie Montanez from the New York Mets on August 12, 1979. The Mets were to receive the ever popular players to be named later.
That left Texas with three first basemen: Putnam, Jorgensen, and Montanez. It was not a situation that could long continue but it would last through the end of the season.
On September 18th the Rangers sent Ed Lynch to New York to partially complete the trade for Montanez. On October 23rd Mike Jorgensen got his ticket to the Big Apple as the second player the Mets received for Montanez. The trade that took three and a half months to complete was finished.

How Can We Prevent Ocean Pollution Due to Plastics?
Due to all types of plastics, our oceans have become littered with waste and it is no wonder why the water is becoming increasingly harmful to wildlife. Millions of fishes die because of plastic, they often get stuck in pieces of waste as well as ingesting pieces which can result in their death. Recently, a dead sperm whale was found in Indonesia and it was discovered that it had ingested 6kg of plastic in the form of bags, cups, straws and more. This just further displays just how much damage we have been doing to their environment. The main problem is that 90% of plastic we use on a daily basis is used only once and then we throw it away and we can begin to reduce this number by reusing items like cups and plastic bags.
Another cause of this major pollution is plastic bottles, which are used more and more daily and according to research, more than 20 million plastic bottles go into the bin every year and this can be easily avoided if we use water bottles which are made of alternative renewable materials, we could use them regularly without any need to throw them away. Another problem is often when we buy products from any shop, they wrap it in plastic which we eventually throw away. People just see it as getting rid of rubbish, but it is such a waste for something with such limited use. Ultimately, it is not needed and does not provide many benefits except carrying your goods from the shop to your home. Again, there are ways we can utilize other materials to serve the same purpose, or else we need to recycle the plastic used, which is so much easier than some people perceive
The main strategy to prevent ocean pollution is to recycle plastic. It really is that simple, but we always throw away our plastic, where it eventually ends up in places it does not belong. We can start small to change our attitudes to preventing litter, this could be done by getting a group of concerned individuals and having a clean-up of local beaches. The last and best possible way to actively stop overusing plastic is to ban them as that is the only way we can ensure that it won't be unnecessarily used for items that do not require it. This will surely help contribute to making our oceans a hospitable place again for marine wildlife.

Review Obslashin
Dungeon game with mobile limitations
Author: Kevin Vadala
Date: 27 Apr 2017, tested on Samsung GT-I9500 Galaxy S4
Great graphics, fun style, good payment model
Obslashin is a cute little dungeon crawler that has a different sense of gameplay. In the game, you move from level to level, but the levels really feel like small arenas with the enemies spawning to attack you. These enemies drop gold and some items that you can use to attack them - like a bomb, or other things like poisons that burn the enemies over time.
The combat in the game works well in terms of how it controls, but I found the combat to be repetitive and boring after a while. I just found myself tapping and tapping and tapping, so much so that my fingers started to get tired. I understand that it's hard to make a dynamic and fluid combat system on a mobile application that is both complex and fun, but this combat system felt too simple and dumbed down. It also wasn't very intuitive to have to stop fighting in order to use items. In these situations, you have to tap on items on the left side of the screen and then tap a monster to use it. This implementation of items actually broke up what was best about the combat, in that it feels relatively fast paced.
The game looks and feels pretty decent because the graphics are polished, sharp, and have a cool cartoon style. The levels also have different designs. I started off in a dungeon like level and progressed to an icy level, and then to a fiery level, which held the boss. The boss fight also proved interesting as the boss had a funny design similar to a chinchilla or something. It also had armor on the sides to protect it. While it is cool to move from environment to environment, the world you play in doesn't feel connected like a Zelda game. There's no story to speak of, so it's hard to care about your character or dynamics of the character's growth.
Oblashin is a game that works as what it is, but it might prove too repetitive and simple for many. It's a game that takes mobile platform constraints perhaps too seriously. If you are a casual gamer, you might find it up your alley..

Gameplay 7/10

There is no question that the hype around 5G technology has been off the charts. The public is very eager to see what wonders this next generation of technology could bring to them. In fact, the hype has been so enormous that it has brought out some sketch comedy responses to how much people are going wild for it.
Actor Keegan-Michael Key is the latest to throw in his two cents in comedic form when it comes to 5G technology. He has never been one to shy away from speaking on a topic that is in the news. On his show Key & Peele topics like this one are covered all the time. That is why he decided that he wanted to talk about 5G on the show.
Key was recently quizzed on what exactly 5G technology is and how it will change the world. He actually struggled to provide the answers. He made some jokes along the way during the laid back quiz.
CNet says that he asked what about 5G technology makes him excited. In typical Key form, he said that the fact that it was two degrees better than 3G and one degree better than 4G is what had him excited about it. Of course, this was all done in a tongue in cheek manner.
5G technology is something that is extremely exciting to a lot of people. It is the next great leap forward in technology and speed that we have all been waiting for. That matters to many people who have been wondering what the world will look like as we continue to add on yet another layer of speed to the work that we do.
This technology is going to make it possible to download more data and information than ever before. Keegan-Michael Key joked about deciding to download every episode of every show from his childhood. He says that he would have the ability to do exactly that if he were given the 5G technology to work with.
The fact that Keegan-Michael Key was willing to speak about this kind of technology was highly useful. It was a great way to bring some people who may not have a strong technology background into the conversation. They may not know much about 5G technology on its surface, but if they are fans of Key then they can at least learn a little bit more about it by listening to what he has to say on the subject.

The coastline stretches for about 2,000 km. It is bordered by Saudi Arabia to the north, the Red Sea to the west, the Gulf of Aden and Arabian Sea to the south, and Oman to the east and northeast. Although Yemen's constitutionally stated capital is the city of Sana'a, the city has been under rebel control since February 2015. Because of this, Yemen's capital has been temporarily relocated to the port city of Aden, on the southern coast. Yemen's territory includes more than 200 islands; the largest of these is Socotra.

A world without bees
Friday 23rd May 2014
For a while now Friends of the Earth have been campaigning to save our bees. Bumble bees aren't doing so well at the moment and they've called on the Government to draw up a Bee Action Plan. They are proposing:
- Every park to include some habitat for pollinators
- Dedicated habitat for bees on all farms
- Helping farmers to produce and protect crops using fewer pesticides
A part of their campaign has even involved sending out wildflower seeds so you can create your own bee habitats. (Click here for information on how to get yours) So why are they declining? The primary reasons are pesticides on farms, urbanisation and climate change. But lots of people are questioning why bees are so important. Wholefoods released images last year that hold a part of the answer. They show choices of foods with bees and choices without.
With Chelsea Flower Show currently in full swing, why not get your green fingers out and get involved by getting yourself some wildflower seeds?
Finally, If you see a bee on the ground that isn't moving, it's not necessarily dead, it's probably just tired from carrying lots of pollen and needs re-energizing. So if you mix a tiny bit of water with some sugar and let it drink it from a spoon it will give it the boost it needs to continue on its way.
If you've been involved with helping the bees, let us know via social media:

United Launch Alliance successfully launches final Delta II rocket with NASA's ICESat-2
A United Launch Alliance (ULA) Delta II rocket carrying NASA's Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) spacecraft lifted off from Space Launch Complex-2 on Sept. 15 at 6:02 a.m. PDT. This marks the final mission of the Delta II rocket, which first launched on Feb. 14, 1989, and launched 155 times including ICESat-2.
From its origin as the launch vehicle for the first Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites to NASA's Earth observing, science and interplanetary satellites – including Mars rovers Spirit and Opportunity – to vital commercial communication and imaging satellites, the Delta II rocket has truly earned its place in space history.
"ULA is proud that the Delta II rocket has been a significant piece of history, launching more than 50 missions for NASA," said Gary Wentz, ULA vice president of Government and Commercial Programs. "I sincerely thank the entire ULA team, NASA, U.S. Air Force, and all of our partners and suppliers who have worked diligently to launch the final Delta II rocket, as well as the dedication of the teams throughout the past 29 years of the program."
ICESat-2 will provide scientists with height measurements to create a global portrait of Earth's third dimension, gathering data that can precisely track changes of terrain including glaciers, sea ice, forests and more. Northrop Grumman built the spacecraft. In addition to ICESat-2, this mission included four CubeSats which launched from dispensers mounted to the Delta II second stage.
This mission launched aboard a Delta II 7420-10 configuration rocket, which included a 10-foot-diameter payload fairing (PLF). The booster for this mission was powered by the RS-27A engine and the second stage was powered by the AJ10-118K engine.
This is ULA's seventh launch in 2018 and the 130th successful launch since the company was formed in December 2006.
ULA's next launch is the AEHF-4 mission for the U.S. Air Force on an Atlas V rocket from Space Launch Complex-41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida.

For those down-to-earth fathers whom we don't have to get expensive gifts for but we'd love to pamper anyway, here are the top 10 products ideal for them.
On a day-to-day basis, more men use styling products on their hair than women. Most men are creatures of habit and will use the same product until forced to try another. John Allan's Matte Lightweight Styling Pomade got extremely good reviews from my husband, who is so opposed to trying anything new especially when it comes to his hair. I gave it to him when he ran out with his usual wax, and he says it's the best he has tried so far. If you're still not convinced, check out the reviews online, and you'll be running straight to the counter to get your man one.
If your man owns a locker room, what better gift than to get him GC Home Bare essentials. This "man kit" comes with a shower gel, shampoo and bar soap targeted toward active, stylish men of all ages. The kit is big enough to hold other necessities. Best of all, your man will know you support him in his extracurricular activities, and will remember you every time he opens his locker.
Does your man suffer from dry skin? ClarinsMen Exfoliating Cleanser will leave his skin nice and soft, and you won't have to worry about any irritations as it uses only natural ingredients. When I first introduced my husband to this product, he thought it was too extravagant, as he was used to washing his face only with bar soap. But now he refuses to use anything but this. The cleanser has a tingling sensation and leaves the skin feeling fresh and moisturized, but without the oiliness.
For those who have partners who suffer from nose and ear hair, this is one product that will change both your lives. Panasonic ER421 will trim nose and ear hair with precision and accuracy. It is fully immersible, made of hypoallergenic steel blades that will still leave the proper amount of hair for natural filtering. It's mistake-proof and pain-free!
For the man who goes under the sun, Kiehl's Facial Fuel SPF 15 is the product you must give. He will love you for it! It is a nongreasy moisturizer with SPF, designed to uplift dull, fatigued skin. This is also one product men won't go and buy for themselves, but we girls know the harmful effects of the sun, so give him an SPF product like this that's unlike the greasy ones they've been accustomed to.
If your man loves Acca Kappa, indulge him by giving him Acca Kappa's shaving kit. This set comes with pure badger shaving brush and Mach 3 razor with chrome-plated handles, plus a chrome metal bowl and stand. The vegetable-based White Moss Shave Soap is rich and moisturizing. The whole kit also looks good on the bathroom counter.
My husband and I love getting massaged at home. Recently, I got a gift check at Neo Day Spa and decided to use it. I was very happy with the service; I had my caviar crystal luxe snowflake treatment in a room designed for couples, with an extra bed in it. If you and your partner love getting massages, book the double room at Neo Day Spa (G/F, Net One Center Bldg., 26th cor. 3rd Ave., Bonifacio Global City; tel. 8158233 or 8156948).
The Philips Norelco 1150x/40 SensoTouch 2d Electric Shaver is for the no-fuss kind of guy. It has aquatic seal on the razor, which allows for use with or without shaving cream. Its smooth flat surface with rounded edge provides an extra-close shave without irritation, and the battery lasts for about 40 minutes, so it is also great for men on the go.
Looking for a new scent to give him? Chanel's Allure Homme Sport is the one. I normally favor unisex scents, but this one I find rather sexy—a combination of freshness, tartness, sensuality, sharpness and strength. Exactly how we would want a man to smell like.
Give the gift of good health. Get him a gym membership to keep him fit and healthy. Check out the newest gym in town, Focus Athletics, which carries the newest Kaiser machines and a lineup of professionally trained, team-based coaches. They will help put him in the best position to accomplish his fitness goals, whether they're sports-specific or merely to get in the best shape of his life.
Focus Athletics is at 2259 Pasong Tamo Extension, Makati; tel. 0920-9257893, opens June 22.

For Immediate Release
Toronto, April 3rd 2008… COPYCAMP 2008, an "unconference" for artists about the Internet and the challenges to copyright is now open for registration at www.copycamp.ca.
Organized by the Creators' Rights Alliance and held in Toronto at OISE (The Ontario Institute for Studies in Education), CopyCamp will bring 100 artists, geeks, lawmakers, and copyright activists together to explore issues surrounding new models for making art and making a living on the Internet. It continues the discussion initiated at the first CopyCamp held in September 2006.
The "uconconference" format means the event is focused squarely on conversation between participants. And the participant list is being carefully crafted to ensure a wide selection of viewpoints and perspectives.
The event kicks off on Tuesday, April 29th at 5pm with a welcome reception including a structured "World Café" conversation, to get participants talking and meeting each other. On Wednesday, April 30, the event will run all day (9-5). The day will start with a "Speed Geek" session- lightning-fast presentations on a dizzying array of related topics. The rest of the day will be spent in small self-organized sessions. Participants will collectively create the agenda for the day, and talk about the topics they are most passionate about.
Lots of great sessions are already being proposed. Thus far there are sessions proposed on Reaching an Audience (singer, songwriter Andrew Cash), on Indie labels (Tina Siegel of Fading Way music), on Net Neutrality (open source aficionado Russell McOrmond), on the Songwriters Association proposal for monetizing the Internet (Don Quarles and several others from SAC), on What's Appropriate in Appropriation (Kristian Clarke of CAR/FAC Ontario), on the art market model, CYBER@ARTS, pioneered by the Playwrights Guild of Canada, and the Association québécoise des auteurs dramatiques (AQAD) (Michel Beauchemin of AQAD), and an "Ask a Techie" demo session hosted by Julianna Yau who will help introduce technophobes to online social media. More sessions will be added up to the day of the event, and on the day itself.
Artists will be attending from Quebec and across the country. In addition the CopyCamp Team is delighted to announce that Maori artists Moana Maniapoto and Toby Mills from New Zealand will be at CopyCamp again this year.
CopyCamp will be facilitated by Misha Glouberman, host and producer of the Trampoline Hall Lectures.
