text: cannabisnews.com: Pols Like Medical Marijuana Pols Like Medical Marijuana Posted by CN Staff on May 02, 2007 at 05:43:41 PT By Jim Baron, Times Staff Writer Source: Pawtucket Times Providence, RI -- Leaders of both the House and Senate say bills to extend the life of Rhode Island's medical marijuana law will likely pass this week, probably with enough votes to withstand a veto by Gov. Donald Carcieri. It could come to that, as the Carcieri administration has signaled it would veto the measure if it passes in its current form. Rhode Island became the 11th state to permit the possession of small amounts of marijuana for medical purposes by people with debilitating, chronic medical conditions such as cancer, AIDS and multiple sclerosis that have been certified by a physician when the House passed a bill over the governor's veto in the first days of 2006. The Senate had voted to override the veto several months earlier. The legislation coming up for a vote this week - the House is scheduled to vote today; the Senate on Thursday -- would eliminate a sunset clause written into the original law that would have caused it to expire on June 30. The House had originally been set to vote on the bill last week, but it was yanked from the calendar at the last minute so it could be tweaked to address the objection of some legislators who felt the language on the amounts of marijuana patients and their caregivers could possess at any one time were too vague, according to Rep. Thomas Slater of Providence. Slater is the prime House sponsor of the bill that was named for him and Edward O. Hawkins, nephew of Sen. Rhoda Perry, the prime sponsor in the Senate. After a series of negotiations with legislative leaders, the bill was amended to clarify how much of the drug certified patients and caregivers are allowed to possess. A patient, who must be certified by a physician, can designate up to two primary caregivers to assist them in procuring and using the drug. A caregiver can serve up to five patients. A patient may possess no more than 2.5 ounces of "useable marijuana" under the law, or up to 12 plants. A caregiver can possess the same amount if he or she assists one patient, but no matter how many patients he or she assists, can possess no more that five ounces or 24 plants. A caregiver must be at least 21 years of age and not have a felony drug conviction. There had been an amendment proposed to allow a person to be a caregiver if his or her felony arrest occurred more than 10 years ago, but that was eliminated to allay the concerns of some of the recalcitrant legislators. Marijuana is still illegal under federal law and the Rhode Island statute provides no way for patients or caregivers to obtain marijuana or seeds legally; it must be bought on the black market as are other illegal drugs. The way the legislation is written now, Perry said, "No felon can do anything." Perry acknowledged that, given the stance of the governor, the margin of passage will have to be veto proof. Does she think it will be? "I'm hopeful," she said. "I'm never sanguine, but I'm always helpful." Slater said he is satisfied with the legislation in its current form. "The main object of the bill is to get the sunset clause off," Slater told The Times Tuesday. "If in other years we want to tweak it, fine. But let's get the sunset clause off so those it is helping now will continue to be helped. This gives us a bill that will pass both the House and Senate and will pass without any problems." He said it would pass with enough support to override a veto. Slater noted that nearly 250 patients, and almost as many caregivers, have registered with the state Department of Health and to date only one problem has surfaced -- an Exeter man was arrested for attempting to contact young girls over the Internet using marijuana as bait. "He did carry a medical marijuana card, but his main purpose wasn't medical marijuana, his main purpose was lure young girls for sex games. He was over the limit, he should have been arrested." Senate President Joseph Montalbano said the state has had "a good experience" with the law in its first year. "We certainly support the good it can do for those people who are suffering and the entire Senate, I believe, will support it. At least we have in the past." "It's been working," said House Majority Leader Gordon Fox, one of those who have been negotiating amendments to the bill. "It has helped numerous people with debilitating diseases." Will it pass with enough votes to overcome a veto? "We'll see that vote (today)," Fox said. "But I think so." Carcieri spokesman Jeff Neal said the governor "has expressed a number of concerns about the bill that was approved last year and if those concerns are not addressed in the bill now before the General Assembly, he expects he will have to veto it." Neal said the bill "promotes the illegal drug trade" because there is no legal way for patients or caregivers to obtain the drug. There is no safety precaution as to the substance being used and there are insufficient restraints on who can grow and possess marijuana and how much. "Finally," Neal said, "the root of all these problems is that marijuana remains illegal under federal law."

Lawmakers Advance Medical Marijuana Bill Thursday, May 3, 2007 PROVIDENCE, R.I. - House lawmakers voted 49-12 on Wednesday to permanently extend a program permitting the chronically ill to possess and use marijuana for pain relief in Rhode Island. Rhode Island became the eleventh state in the country last year to decriminalize marijuana for medical purposes. The program will end on June 30 unless lawmakers pass bills making it permanent. The state Senate is planning to vote on a similar bill on Thursday. To become law, one of the bills must be adopted by both chambers. Under the program, 267 patients and 277 caregivers have received state licenses to each possess up to 12 marijuana plants and 2.5 ounces of the drug in a usable form, said Andrea Bagnall Degos, a spokesman for the Department of Health. More than half of those enrolled in the program last year said they were suffering from problems including seizures, chronic pain or severe nausea, according to an annual report issued by state health authorities. Republican Gov. Don Carcieri vetoed the legislation the first time it was passed, but the General Assembly overrode his veto. Carcieri objects to the program because it doesn't create a legal way to buy marijuana and promotes illegal drug use, said his spokesman, Jeff Neal. Selling and possessing marijuana remains illegal under federal law, but federal drug officials haven't arrested any people enrolled in the program in Rhode Island.

SES will provide a series of services for the Galileo European navigation system under a long-term agreement signed with Spaceopal — the contract is part of the Galileo Service Operator (GSOp) framework agreement between Spaceopal — a joint venture between Telespazio and DLR GfR mbH — and the European Global Navigation Satellite System Agency (GSA).
Under the agreement, SES will provide Spaceopal with services to support the maintenance and seamless operations of the Galileo Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). SES will be responsible for in-orbit measurements for the Galileo satellite constellation and provide VSAT managed services to Telespazio for the Galileo Data Dissemination Network (GDDN).
Galileo is a European Union Program, managed and developed together with the European GNSS Agency (GSA) and the European Space Agency (ESA). It is Europe's Global Navigation Satellite System which provides a highly accurate global positioning service for public, governmental and commercial use.
SES has played an important role in the early development and deployment of the Galileo system and is instrumental to the deployment and maintenance of the GDDN. Previously, SES has provided infrastructure and services for the Galileo program, as well as ground stations and in-orbit testing during the In-Orbit Validation (IOV) Phase.
Nicole Robinson, the SVP, Global Government, at SES Networks, said that the company is proud to continue to draw on the experience that SES has accumulated while working on Galileo over the years, and continue to be part of the team in ensuring the reliability of the GNSS system and accommodating its shifting demands in the next decade.
André Bauerhin, the COO of Spaceopal, said his organization is delighted to extend this partnership with SES in the framework of the Galileo Service Operator contract with the European Global Navigation Satellite Systems Agency. SES's previous success with the Galileo project in delivering and managing services for both on orbit testing and the Galileo Data Dissemination Network has made SES the clear choice for this operational contract.
Luxembourg Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of the Economy Etienne Schneider, noted that partnership, innovation and investment are key elements of Luxembourg's success in space. This agreement is an excellent example of how a Luxembourg-based company, together with industrial partners, can provide solid services and enable a global game-changing system such as the Galileo Global Navigation System.

You Are, Or Will Become, your Environment
In a series of stories, I wrote about how you are, or will become, what you read, what you listen to, and what you do.
In this story, I'm going a little deeper on the same theme.
A lot of the inspiration comes from my own experience living in completely different areas of the world in the last few years.
In the past 7 months alone, I've changed more than I've ever changed in my entire life. I have many theories on how specifically it happened, but for the most part: it boils down to my changes of environment.
If you are not in the right environment, hopefully, my story will inspire you to change it and make it work for you.
To be honest, It's not something I had given much thought until I read Benjamin P. Hardy's book: Willpower Doesn't Work. So thank you for the inspiration, Benjamin!
Toronto — Earlier than 7 Months Ago
Back then, I was living a more normal life. I had a nice 9–5 software engineering job in a rapidly growing tech startup in Toronto. I had worked there for at least one full year.
I was living in a modest apartment with my wife in the downtown area.
I was doing good, but I wasn't standing out from the crowd. I felt I had stronger ambitions, but my environment was not prone to making me what I wanted to be.
Cambodia — 7 Months Ago
My wife and I went separate ways due to her job with Doctors Without Borders.
We would not see each other for 6 months, with the exception of a week-long break in between.
I had to choose where I'd go.
I ended up going to Siem Reap, in Cambodia, helping a friend who owns a co-living/co-working space.
That was quite the change of environment!
There, I finally started working full-time on my own startup, a video game studio called Power Level Studios.
The most important part of the environment there was the people. Everyone was working hard on their own projects, which they cared deeply about. 9–5 was not a concept anymore.
I was so motivated that I was working 15 hours per day, 6–7 days per week. And it wasn't even that hard.
I become such a high achiever and came up with my 3 new skills a month framework.
But outside of work hours, I would go out for dinner with friends every night. There's no way I would do that in Toronto, that would be way too expensive! In Cambodia, I could eat a meal for $3. That was with a beer.
That environment was perfect for working hard, but also playing hard.
In the two months I was there, I had finally started working on my own dreams. I also made many new friends and became way more sociable.
I also somehow started looking like Conor McGregor haha.
Thailand — 5 Months Ago
After Cambodia, I went to travel with a friend to Thailand for about 3 weeks.
We met new people almost every day and I did things way outside my comfort zone, like rock climbing outdoors and surfing. I'm afraid of heights and of drowning. We also crashed Turkish tour groups and went to ping pong shows with them.
I was a way more fun person than I was when I was in Toronto. I had ditched the excessive video game playing or toying around with my phone. In fact, my phone is pretty much a brick now. I use it for Google Maps while traveling and that's about it. Oh wait, it's also my alarm clock and music player.
Spain — 4 Months Ago
After my vacation in Thailand, I went to Málaga, Spain, for 3 months.
When I arrived, the co-working space I wanted to join didn't have any desk left for me, so I was working from my Airbnb.
Honestly, I was pretty depressed. My productivity went down to about 10–20% of what it was back in Cambodia. The weather was nice. I had access to mountains and beaches. It was really hard to stay home. Plus the Spaniards live quite a relaxed way of life when you compare to North America. And I'm not saying it's positive or negative, just different.
Anyway, the co-working space finally had a desk ready for me after 10 days. BOOM! Productivity went back up to what it was back in Cambodia.
There, I managed to continue with my 3 new skills per month. I gained 5kg of mass in one month (while losing 2% body fat), hiked almost once a week, gave public speeches, learned good conversational Spanish, started a fitness group, earned a grant for Power Level Studios, grew the company to 8 people, started writing and became top writer in less than one month, and made a business partner out of another co-worker there.
Gone was my introversion too. I would approach everyone and have wide-ranging conversions about everything.
I had become someone so entirely different from what I was only 6 months before. I had become much closer to what I've always wanted to be.
Toronto — 1 Month Ago
My wife and I were reunited on Valentine's day.
She had a hard time adjusting to what I had become. I was so different mentality, but physically too. I had gained a lot of muscles and started looking like a Viking because I was about to launch a Viking store (it's still coming soon).
But it's been only one month, and somehow I'm starting to get back to my other habits from before.
I'm less motivated. I play more video games. I work less. The only thing I do without fail is working out. I started writing once every 2–3 days instead of every day. My environment inspires me less here for some reason.
India — The Next 3 Months
In four days, my wife and I are flying to India. We're going to be spending about 3 months in Bangalore. We found our apartment and our co-working space.
I'm excited to be in a similar routine as in Spain, but in a completely different environment. I have much to learn from India. Apart from Canada, Spain and Cambodia, it's the country I had spent the most time in before, and I absolutely loved it.
I'm excited to see how my environment there will shape me. I have a feeling India will have a very positive impact on my life.
What About You?
Take a moment to think about your current and past environments. Ask yourself the questions below:
- What environment are you in?
- Are you satisfied with it?
- Why is that?
- What could be improved?
- What could not be improved?
- What is positive about it?
- What is negative about it?
- What would be your ideal environment?
- How do you get there?
- What are the major roadblocks?
- How do you overcome them?
- How long will it take you?
I never asked myself these questions before. As a result, I "wasted" years of my life where I wasn't where I really wanted to be.
I changed my environment many times now. I can only agree with Benjamin's theory on how environments have the biggest impact on how you can change/grow.
I know it's not always easy to change your environment, but you don't have to go to extreme lengths like I did.
Baby steps.
With each small change, you'll be more motivated to change more things, until without even realizing it, you will be in the environment you always wished you were in.
You can do this!
Thanks for reading and sharing ! :)

Medics are allowed to work even if they speak as little English as many Britons speak Chinese, the chairman of the British Medical Association (BMA) suggested.
He called for tighter regulations to prevent a repeat of the death of David Gray, a pensioner who died after he was treated by a German visiting doctor working his first shift in Britain.
An inquest into the death found that the medic, Dr Daniel Ubani, gave 70-year-old Mr Gray up to 20 times the recommended dose of the drug.
Dr Ubani had previously failed an English test when applying to work in Leeds, but was still allowed to work in the NHS in Cambridgeshire.
In a speech on the opening day of the BMA's annual conference in Brighton, Dr Hamish Meldrum said that it was wrong that foreign doctors from within the European Union did not face the same scrutiny as British doctors.
He said: "We seem to be able to do little or nothing to check that doctors from overseas – especially from Europe – meet the proper standards of language and competence."
Although Britain had benefited "enormously" from foreign doctors over the years, he said that the case of Mr Gray "has shocked us all".
"It cannot be acceptable for poorly trained, badly regulated doctors whose knowledge of English is about as good as my knowledge of Chinese, to be able to practise, virtually unchallenged, in the UK," he insisted.
But he denied that GPs were to blame after a new contract in 2004 allowed them to opt out of providing out-of-hours care, which led to a surge in overseas doctors travelling to Britain to cover the shifts.
"Some allege that this situation has arisen because of the ability for GPs to opt out of out-of-hours responsibility," Dr Meldum said.
"This is rubbish.
"It has been caused by under-funding and mismanagement of out-of-hours services by too many Primary Care organisations and by poor enforcement of, admittedly, inadequate regulations."
He added: "We must ensure that the doctors who treat our patients our competent to do so, and that they have the necessary language skills and that they are subject to the same regulation as UK doctors."
Doctors from countries outside the Europe can be forced to sit language and competency tests.
But concerns over European laws insisting that doctors from inside the European Union should be treated in the same way as qualified British medics has meant they have not had to face the same scrutiny.
The Government is currently in discussion with the General Medical Council (GMC), the doctors' watchdog, about how to introduce tighter regulations.
Dr Meldrum said that he believed that the European regulations had been "over interpreted", and that there was nothing to prevent a system of universal language and competency tests for doctors from the EU, but added that nothing prevented NHS employers from carrying out there own checks.
Although health Trusts can carry out individual tests, MPs warned earlier this year that such checks were patchy.
Niall Dickson, chief executive of the GMC, has previously said that the organisation is "extremely concerned that the current arrangements do not provide patients with the protection they need".
Andrew Lansley, the Health Secretary, said: "We are working closely with the GMC to ensure that foreign healthcare professionals are not allowed to work in the NHS unless they have proven their competence and language skills, and we are currently exploring a number of options to put a stop to foreign doctors slipping through the net."

About Me
I am a business generalist, passionate about planning business growth and improvement from interdisciplinary, multidimensional and holistic perspectives. My approach stems from my broad and diverse experience as well as commitment to scientific rigour.
My work background in such industries as: plastics, furniture, banking, digital marketing and advertising, paper, insurance, publishing and retail, allows me to see an organisation as an element within a broader social, institutional and economic context, which is crucial for strategic thinking.
My background in such business functions as sales, marketing, advertising, supply chain, administration, business development, export, import, customer services and human resources have equipped me with valuable insight into internal organisational mechanics, interdependency of business units, know-how, implementation and execution.
Experience alone is not sufficient to address the complexity of today's organisations. Having studied the 'soft' dimension of business at Abertay University (BSc Hons in Sociology), Silesia University (MSc in Sociology in Social Communication) and Robert Gordon University (Postgraduate Diploma in Human Resource Management), I continue my professional development through continued learning based on the adapted curricula of postgraduate
programmes in Business Management, Marketing, Supply Chain & Procurement, and Business Strategy & Entrepreneurship, all of which constitute the 'hard' dimension of business.
My Promise
EverAst provides strategic business advice on: developing, improving and planning for growth, to ambitious and long-term oriented SMEs who:
• need a vision of what they can be and want to become,
• are not living up to their potential,
• are dissatisfied with the current condition of their business,
• do not have sufficient knowledge, information and know-how which would allow them to make sound decisions, or
• need an external, trusted and independent perspective to challenge decisions or plans and provoke discussion.
You will develop your understanding of your business as a unique organisation operating in your key markets, with your resources, competences and capabilities. This insight into your business rather than business in general will enable you to filter out fads, cliches, and myopic or silver bullet solutions to complex and multifaceted business problems. Further, the insight you develop will also protect you from resorting to the same solutions your competitors have implemented, the adoption of which would make your business similar to theirs resulting in you reducing your competitive advantage.
Being aware of your business' position will act as the foundation to build the realistic vision for your business and, working together, we'll translate this into goals, objectives, plans, processes and practices. This is the moment when you will take deliberate actions using strategy formulation and business planning. Your business will become a strategic organisation reorienting itself from being a reactive and defensive victim of market, industry and internal forces towards becoming a proactive, controlling, competitive and instrumental key business player.

Best Variation of Poker
The best variation on poker is wholly dependent on the individual. So while Texas hold'em is the undisputed worldwide favourite, many players will find it is not the best variation for them. The key difference between a good poker player and a great one is the latter's ability to recognise his or her strengths and weaknesses, and those of their competitors. Most players – save a lucky few – will find that they have greater success in one or two particular poker variations than they do in others. This is down to the player's individual strengths and weaknesses.
There are numerous differences between the variations of poker available to play, both subtle and extreme. These differences produce very different types of game playing; which variations an individual will fail or excel at is ultimately determined by their personal character traits. For example, naturally aggressive players are likely to find that their playing style is well suited to short-handed or heads-up tables. On the other hand if you are a patient player who is able to bide their time, you will likely find success in the tight, long play of full ring games. So before you play, it's worth taking some time to become reacquainted with yourself.
If you're having trouble characterising your own playing style then there are a number of experts who have kindly documented the common player types online. Once you know what category you fall into you will know what variation of poker is likely to be the best for you.
Playing a number of different variations for fun is fine, but if you plan on playing for serious stakes then the best thing to do is to focus solely on the poker variation at which you most excel.
How to win at Poker
Poker is a game that involves a fair amount of strategy. It is also a game that is played both online and in a variety of casinos. There are certain tips and tricks you can follow in order to win big. The best advice is of course to start small.
Playing free games will allow you to build your skill. When you feel that you know all there is to know about the game, only then should you consider playing for a large cash wager.
Online forums, gaming chat rooms and gaming news are all great sources of knowledge when it comes to learning the ropes.
With so many styles of internet poker available, it is a good idea to try a few prior to playing just the one. There may be a certain style that suits you much better than any of the others available. A poker player will be met with some tough decisions on many occasions. The choices available usually include the likes of check, bet, call, raise or fold.
In order to make a wise decision, the player must institute the approximate outcome of each available move. Once they have done this, they must then choose the one that has the best possible return; if of course there is that choice available. If there seems like there is no great outcome, the player will often choose to fold.
If the player feels like the odds are in his or her favour, they should place a larger bet. If they are not however, they should either choose to place a smaller bet or alternatively fold.
The body language used in the game is of great importance. The player needs to make their opposition think that they have the winning hand. If they do this successfully, their components will more than likely fold, which will in turn allow you to win the round.

Marvel Dice Masters FAQ - 5/30/2014 Q: Please explain "Draw dice" card effects. A: Basic Action Cards with "Draw Dice" effects— such as Gearing Up— can be used during either the Main Step or the Attack Step after blockers are assigned and before damage is dealt. The player would declare that they are using the action, draw two dice from their bag, roll them, and place the results in their reserve pool. Since both the Main Step and Attack Step happen after the Roll and Reroll Step, dice rolled using the Gearing Up BAC cannot be rerolled. For characters with "Draw Dice" effects— such as Gambit Ace in the Hole— are triggered when the requirement of the card effect is met. In the case of Gambit Ace in the Hole, this is when this character is fielded. In this example, since fielding Gambit would occur during the Main Step (which happens after the Roll and Reroll Step), dice rolled using the Gambit's effect cannot be rerolled. Q: Please explain "target character must attack" effects. A: "Target character must attack" effects— such as the global abilities on Mr. Fantastic, Brilliant Scientist, and Phoenix, Ms. Psyche,— can be paid with their respective energy during the Main Step of your opponent's turn to force a single target character die to attack this turn. For example, during an opponent's Main Step, a player could use Mr. Fantastic, Brilliant Scientist's global ability by paying one mask energy and choosing an opposing player's active character die. That character would be forced to attack during that player's attack step. Players can activate "target character must attack" effects during the Attack Step, but since attackers have already been assigned (during the Assign Attackers phase of the Attack Step) the opportunity for those characters to attack has already passed and the net result would be paying for an effect, choosing a target, and the effect of the Global Ability would do nothing. Q: If a character with a game effect that is triggered by taking damage is KO'ed due to damage dealt in combat, does their game effect occur? A: Yes, the character's card effect will occur. As an example, Iron Man Playboy's ability to deal 3 damage to one opposing character that is attacking or blocking each time he takes damage in the attack step would be triggered even if the damage he takes would cause him to be KO'ed PLEASE NOTE: On Page 17 of the Detailed Combat Example, there is an error in the rulebook. In the last sentence of the first paragraph, it states, "This will give Thor enough damage to knock out Iron Man before he can use his card text again." This refers to the fact that Iron Man will not be in play in future turns to continue to take advantage of his ability – he still gets to use it on the turn he is KO'ed. Q: If a character with a game effect that is triggered by taking damage is KO'ed by a game effect that KO's the character, does their game effect occur? A: No, effects that KO characters (or ones that move characters to different zones) are not considered to be damage dealt to the character. As an example, Thor, Legendary Warrior's ability to knock out characters when he deals damage to an opponent is not considered to deal damage to the character and, therefore, his ability would not trigger any game effects triggered by taking damage on the character that he knocks out with this ability. Q: Please explain game effects that occur when a character is "engaged" in combat. A: If a character has a game effect that is triggered when the character is "engaged" with another character, then that character must actively be in combat (either as attacker or blocker) with the opposing character when the game effect is supposed to occur. If that character is removed from combat before their game effect would trigger, that character's effect will not occur. As an example, Black Widow Natural has a card effect of, "At the end of the attack step, spin each character engaged with Black Widow down 1 level." If Black Widow, Natural, would be KO'ed due to damage taken in the Assign Damage step (or otherwise removed from combat before the end of the attack step), then she is no longer actively engaged with any opposing characters so her game effect would not occur. Q: Please explain "When fielded" effects. A: "When fielded" effects trigger at the time that a player moves that character into their Field Zone. In most instances, this occurs when a player pays a character's fielding cost and moves the character from their Reserve Pool to their Field Zone. As an example, Hawkeye, Longbow's ability allows him to deal his attack value to a target opposing character when he is fielded. Some game effects will allow characters to be fielded in a more non-traditional fashion—such as Gambit Le Diable Blanc. If a character would be fielded from Gambit Le Diable Blanc's ability, any "when fielded" effects on those characters would trigger. Q: Please explain "While Active" effects. A: "While active" effects are static effects that are considered to be in play as long as that character is in the Field Zone (NOTE: the Attack Zone is considered a subset of the Field Zone—so "While Active" effects are still active when a character is in the Attack Zone). These effects are not cumulative— i.e. the effects only occur one regardless of how many of that character is active in a player's Field/Attack Zone (however, NOTE: if both players have the same character active, the effects will occur once for each player). As an example, Dr. Doom, Reed Richard's Rival, modifies the Attack and Defense of all non-villain characters while he is active. This effect would only occur once regardless of how many Dr. Doom dice a player has active, but would occur twice if two players had a Doctor Doom, Reed Richards' Rival, active. Q: Please explain the interaction/timing of "When Fielded" and "While Active" effects. A: Characters are fielded when they are moved from the reserve pool to the field zone (by paying their fielding cost or through any special effect). An effect that occurs while the character is "active" is described as an effect that takes place when one or more of that card's dice are in the field. See the Tournament Rules - Active and Fielded section in the rulebook on page 19. For example, Hawkeye Longbow's effect would activate only when you pay the character's fielding cost and move the die from your reserve pool to the field. Doctor Doom Reed Richards' Rival's effect would stay in effect as long as that character die is in your field zone. For "When Fielded" effects, you ask "Was the character fielded?"— If "yes", the effect occurs immediately as they are fielded. This will happen simultaneously with any static effects already in the field (like Doctor Doom Reed Richards' Rival's -1A/-1D). So, if I field Hawkeye on his Level 1 or 2 face (with 1 Defense), if there are no other defense modifiers on the field, it would play out as: 1) Hawkeye deals his attack value (which is being modified Dr. Doom RRR by -1) to target character. 2) Dr. Doom's RRR modifies Hawkeye's Defense by -1 KO'ing Hawkeye. So, effectively, Hawkeye uses his effect just as he is KO'd. Q: Please explain "When/While attacking" and "When/While blocking" effects. A: These effects will trigger each and every time that a character die is assigned to attack/block— even if you assign multiple dice of the same character to attack/block. As an example of a "When attacking" effect, Punisher McRook allows a player to knock out one target opposing character when he is assigned to attack. If a player assigns multiple Punisher, McRooks, to attack, this effect would trigger for each Punisher assigned to attack. As an example of a "When blocking" effect, Beast Mutate #666 allows you to draw a die and place it in your prep area when he blocks. If a player has multiple Beast Mutate #666s in their Field Zone and blocks with more than one during an attack, that player will be able to draw a die for each Beast #666 that is assigned to block. Q: What happens to a captured die if the capturing die is captured, rerolled, or otherwise changed such that the power is no longer available? A: On Page 21 of the rulebook, under the Capturing, Controlling, and Copying section, "Once the capturing ends, place the die wherever it came from (the text on the capturing die's card will tell you where you captured it from)." If the capturing die is somehow changed, (through rerolling, etc), and is removed from the field, its ability is no longer in play, so the captured die would be returned to where you captured it from. Q: Is a character considered to be blocked even if the blocker is removed from combat before damage is assigned? A: Yes, once a blocker is declared in the Assign Blocker step, the attack is still considered blocked when assigning damage. As an example, if Nightcrawler, Circus Freak, is blocked by a single character and that character is KO'd by Nightcrawler's ability, Nightcrawler is still considered to have been blocked for the turn. Q: Can you use a 2 generic energy die to both field characters and purchase a die in the same turn? To field two characters who each cost 1 to field? A: Yes. In a situation where you roll Mask, 2, Sidekick, and Spiderman Lv2 (field cost 1), you can buy a 2 cost Beast (with your Mask and 1 of your 2 generic energy) and field the SpiderMan (with the remainder of your 2 generic energy). You may take no actions in between and you may not pass priority to your opponent. The same would be true if you had rolled a 2 energy face on die that has no 1 energy face. See page 7 of the rulebook under Purchasing a Die that reads, "For those dice (generic energy), any unused portion that is not immediately spent is lost. However, you can purchase multiple dice simultaneously to spend a generic die completely." Also, under Field Characters on the same page, "As with purchasing dice, you can partially spend non-generic energy dice, and you can pay several fielding costs at once to fully spend a generic energy die." Q: If a card effect is triggered multiple time by the same game effect, does the card effect happen multiple times as a result? No, just once. For example, let's look at the Force Beam BAC and Hulk Jade Giant: Suppose the following situation: Player A has a Force Beam Basic Action Die in their Reserve Pool on its double burst Action Face. Player B has a Hulk die in their Field Zone on its Level 3 face. Player A activates their Force Beam which deals 1 damage to each player and 2 damage to each character. Player A and Player B will both be dealt 1 damage and all characters in both players' Field Zone will be dealt 2 damage. As Player B will take damage and Player B's Hulk will take damage, Hulk's card effect of "While Hulk is active, when either you or Hulk takes damage, knock out one of your opponent's level 1 characters" will trigger and Hulk will be able to knock out one of Player A's level 1 characters (that were still in Field after being dealt 2 damage from the Force Beam). Hulk's effect will only trigger once regardless of how many time the requirement for his effect is met. If any other source would then deal damage to Hulk's controller or Hulk (like a second Force Beam were to be played) however, Hulk's ability would trigger again. Q: If I target a character with two separate effects that resolve simultaneously, and for opposite effect, what happens? A: The active player would choose which effect to apply first. Let's take a look at Doctor Octopus (Megalomaniac) with the ability, "When Doctor Octopus assigns to attack, target an opposing character. That character cannot block this turn." and Deadpool (Chiyonosake) with the ability, "When Deadpool attacks, you may assign an opposing character to block him. If he knocks out that character, he deals two damage to each opposing character." If the attacker chooses to have Doctor Octopus (Megalomaniac) activate first, the target character would not be able to block, Chiyonosake would need to choose a different character for his effect (or none at all, since it is a 'may' effect). If the attacker chooses to have Deadpool (Chiyonosake) activate first, the target character must block the Deadpool die. Afterward, the attacker could choose to prevent that blocker from blocking with Doctor Octopus (Megalomaniac) since it is a 'cannot' effect. © 2014 WizKids/NECA, LLC.

"Whoever says to this mountain, 'Be removed'…will have whatever he says." Mark 11:23 NKJV
Jesus said: "Whoever says to this mountain, 'Be removed and be cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them," (vv. 23-24 NKJV). Now, Jesus didn't relocate any physical mountains during His ministry, so what was He talking about here? The problems we face in life! And notice something important: He talks only once about our need for "faith"– and three times about our need to "speak" His Word. Why? Because if you don't have enough faith to move your mouth and speak God's Word, you won't have enough faith to move your mountain! The Bible says, "Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God" (Romans 10:17 NKJV).
Something wonderful happens when you verbalize God's Word. Your ears hear it, your mind is renewed, your focus is changed, and the thing God responds to–faith–rises up within you. And when you hold that position of faith, refuse to budge, and keep speaking God's Word, the mountain in your life starts to shift. As long as you keep saying what you think and feel in your natural mind, the mountain will keep standing like an immovable object. But when you stand on God's promise and declare, "I may not know how or when, but I know you're coming down in the name of Jesus," your mountain will move!

The hair dryer is a big deal, there was only one place in NYC that sold the one he wanted. The wardrobe mistress needed her own room so that James could get wardrobe in the room. The dressing room has a lot of people in it. The best place to get a drink or some food.

The Gold Coast SUNS are thrilled to confirm Gary Ablett has signed a three-year contract extension.
The deal will see Ablett continue with the SUNS until at least the end of the 2018 season.
"I'm rapt to have re-committed to the Gold Coast. For some time, I had indicated to the club and my management that I wanted to extend my contract with the SUNS," Ablett said.
"When I joined the Gold Coast SUNS, I was aware it would be a responsibility and privilege to play a role in forming a new club, in an expansion market for our great game. But I never anticipated the ride to be so fulfilling.
"The Gold Coast SUNS are a fantastic club, made up of great people who have all made such a significant contribution to both the AFL and the Gold Coast community.
"I am proud of what we have achieved so far off the field, and I know that with hard work, we are capable of achieving so much more on-field in the future, and that's why I have re-committed to the SUNS.
"We still have plenty of work ahead of us, but I strongly believe that we have the right people in place to take our club forward."

AURORA, CO—VA clinicians should exercise caution with use of sulfonylurea in some patients with co-morbid type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, according to new research.
Instead, urged a study team from the VA Eastern Colorado Healthcare System, metformin or newer diabetes medications with cardiovascular safety data might be considered as alternatives when individualizing therapy.
The recently published study raised questions about the use of sulfonylureas and increased risk of coronary artery disease in diabetic patients. It added to a significant body of research published in the last year on sulfonylureas, cardiovascular disease and mortality that suggest that one of the original medications for type 2 diabetes might do more harm than good for many patients.1
Sulfonylureas constitute one of six preferred classes of second-line treatment options recommended by the American Diabetes Association (ADA) for patients with type 2 diabetes who do not achieve target glycemic levels with lifestyle changes and metformin alone or for patients who cannot take metformin. Until recently, the ADA did not recommend one class over another in the second line.
The VA's guidelines continue to take that neutral stance. "The VA/DoD Clinical Practice Guidelines do not recommend any single class of medication as second line therapy. Independent practitioners prescribe a medication, using shared decision making taking into account the individual benefits, risks, and side effects of medications, and patient preferences," according to Leonard Pogach, MD, national program director for Endocrinology and Diabetes at the VA.
In a notable change, however, the 2018 ADA guidelines now advise physicians to select as a second-line therapy a sulfonylurea, thiazolidinedione, DPP-4 inhibitor, SGLT2 inhibitor, GLP-1 receptor agonist or basal insulin based on drug-specific effects and patient factors in consultation with the patient, except in the case of patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. For those patients, the latest guidelines recommend choosing an agent shown to reduce cardiovascular events and mortality.
"Two new classes of medications appear to have benefit particularly in patients with cardiovascular disease – GLP-1 agonists (e.g., liraglutide and exenatide) and SGLT-2 inhibitors (e.g., empagliflozin and canagliflozin)," said Sridharan Raghavan, MD, PhD, of the Rocky Mountain Regional VAMC and the University of Colorado School of Medicine and lead author of the recent study on sulfonylureas.
Recent cardiovascular outcome trials demonstrated an advantage for two SGLT2 inhibitors—canagliflozin and empagliflozin—and the GLP-1 receptor agonists liraglutide and exenatide. Studies on pioglitazone, a thiazolidinedione, indicate a potential benefit in cardiovascular disease (CVD) as well. Canagliflozin and empagliflozin also appear to benefit patients with chronic heart failure.
Conflicting Findings
Noting that studies had conflicting findings on the relative safety of metformin and sulfonylurea and that the known side effects of sulfonylureas might cause particular harm in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), the VA researchers compared the two treatments in 5,352 veterans with both CAD and type 2 diabetes who received treatment between 2005 and 2015.
In the study published in BMJ Open Diabetes Research & Care, the researchers accounted for stratification of patients by looking at veterans with well controlled diabetes, defined as having A1c of 7.5% or less at the time of catherization for CAD. Eligible patients took no oral diabetes medication (49%), a non-sulfonylurea, principally metformin (35%) or a sulfonylurea (16%).1
The researchers found that patients who took sulfonylureas had about twice the two-year mortality (11.9%) of those who took a non-sulfonylurea (5.2%) or no medication at all (6.6%). A fully adjusted survival model attenuated the difference, indicating that sulfonylureas might increase the mortality risk (HR 1.38 (95% CI 1.00 to 1.93), p=0.05).
The researchers concluded that in veterans "Sulfonylurea use was common (nearly one-third of those taking medications) and was associated with increased 2-year mortality in individuals with obstructive CAD."
Raghavan noted that while metformin is the "mainstay of first line diabetes treatment and a reasonable choice" for patients with CAD, in individuals with CAD and well-controlled diabetes, "one of our conclusions was metformin or no medications at all might be suitable alternatives to sulfonylureas in the patient population that we studied."
That does not mean that sulfonylurea has no place in treatment of these patients, however. "I tend to be very cautious about using sulfonylureas, but there remain scenarios in which they may be the most acceptable drug for diabetes," Raghavan told U.S. Medicine. In particular, patients without cardiovascular disease who cannot take metformin or strongly oppose using insulin might be appropriate candidates, he said, as would patients outside of the VA system for whom the out-of-pocket cost is a concern.
As an older drug, sulfonylureas are commonly available in generic form. "The cost of the mediations remains an important reason why sulfonylureas are on the WHO's essential medications list," he noted.
While the VA research looked at a very specific patient cohort, other recent research published in the BMJ evaluated metformin and sulfonylureas in a larger and more diverse population. That study found that adding sulfonylureas to metformin therapy or switching to sulfonylureas from metformin increased the risk of myocardial infarction, ischaemic stroke, cardiovascular death, all-cause mortality and severe hypoglycemia.
The study included 77,138 patients in the UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink who started metformin therapy for type 2 diabetes between April 1998 and March 2013. Of those, 25,699 patients added or switched to sulfonylureas during the study.
The researchers determined that adding or switching to sulfonylureas rather than remaining on metformin monotherapy increased the risk of myocardial infarction 26% and raised the risk of all-cause mortality 28%. Sulfonylureas also increased the risk of severe hypoglycemia more than seven-fold. Switching to sulfonylureas rather than adding them to metformin increased the risk of myocardial infarction 51% and the risk of all-cause mortality 23%.2
An accompanying editorial pointed out that the difference in risk between adding sulfonylureas to metformin vs. switching to sulfonylurea monotherapy "could be driven by the possibility that higher doses of sulfonylureas are needed by those who switched." Overall, though, they concluded that "continuing metformin alone and accepting higher HbA1c targets is preferable to switching to sulfonylureas when considering both macrovascular outcomes and hypoglycemia."3
Raghavan shared that cautious approach. "My interpretation of the recent studies describing the risks of sulfonylureas is that their use should come with close surveillance for hypoglycemia and constant re-assessment of whether an alternative medication (or no glycemic medications at all) might be preferable."

Thanks to a new project by the Brownwood Public Library and Brownwood Area Community Garden, residents can grow produce with no substantial investment.
Daniel Graham, community garden director, said using the seed library in conjunction with the community garden could take a large bite out of families' food expenses considering a typical resident would pay is $50 annually to rent a planter.
"It's very low cost, very low cost," Graham said. "These are raised beds. I call them deluxe raised beds that are about 20 feet long by 3 and a half feet wide. They already have group irrigation installed to lease one of those for a year is about $50. For residents of the housing authority, who we know have already passed the low income screening, it's about $25 a year."
In a seemingly symbolic gesture, the library converted the cabinet it once used for its now digitized card filing system and instead uses it to house dozens of seed varieties donated to the Brownwood Area Community Garden by Walmart. As part of the seed library program, library patrons can search through the cabinet and checkout seeds the same as they would a book or DVD.
"Traditionally, libraries have lent books," BPL Director Becky Isbell said. "Over the years, the internet came along and people said 'libraries are going to go extinct,' but libraries changed themselves to go with the times. They offered computers, printers and things like that. Libraries have always been, but especially currently, they are a place to share community resources - books, computers. And seeds are another thing."
Anyone with a Brownwood library card can pick up seeds free of charge and plant them in his or her garden or the community garden. Those interested in checking out seeds must be 18 years old and have a library card, which is free to anyone with government issued identification and a proof of residency.
Librarians ask patrons to check in the seeds once the new crop comes in, sometime in the late summer or early fall. Library and community garden officials plan to collaborate once again, but this time on classes regarding seed savings and other gardening topics.
"It is a little advanced, saving seeds," Isbell said. "It's a project the Brownwood community garden and the library talked about for a while … It's a great partnership to encourage people to garden."
As the program moves forward, Isbell said she hopes to bring in heartier, heirloom seeds that can last more than two or three generations and eventually carry varieties more suited to the area's climate.
"It's food security. We have so much fewer varieties of foods these days, fewer plants than we used to," Isbell said. "Having all of those varieties suited for each region helps us. If there is a natural catastrophe, a volcano, global warming, we don't know what the future will hold. Having those varieties suited to certain regions will help us preserve our food. That is one of the reasons people have seed libraries."

Children's Charity Funds Health Play Specialist at University College Hospital
THIS WEEK, Rays of Sunshine Children's Charity announces the appointment of its first funded Health Play Specialist, bringing the power of play to seriously ill children at University College Hospital.
As a part of Rays of Sunshine's mission to brighten the lives of seriously ill children across the UK, the Health Play Specialist will provide invaluable care and support to children and their families both in hospital and within the community. The role will include organising play activities for children being treated on the paediatric oncology ward, using play to reduce the feeling of anxiety, preparing children for hospital procedures, providing support for parents and siblings by developing a solid understanding of the needs of the children and family members, as well as visiting young people in their homes. The Health Play Specialist will also direct patients to the range of services available to them from Rays of Sunshine.
Jane Sharpe, CEO of Rays of Sunshine, said:
"Our mission is to bring joy and hope by providing support to seriously ill children both in hospital and within their community, and the appointment of our first funded Rays of Sunshine Health Play Specialist will enable us to support families throughout their whole journey. Our hope is to fund additional Health Play Specialists in other parts of the UK, enabling us to reach hundreds more seriously ill young people and their families. We can't be more thankful to the team at the University College Hospital for helping us launch this initiative."
Jenny Oliver, Acting Play and Youth Services Manager at University College Hospital, said:
"This post of Health Play Specialist, the first to be funded by Rays of Sunshine at UCLH, will be hugely valuable to patients, their siblings and families while attending hospital for ongoing oncology treatment. This post will allow patients to gain the much-needed therapeutic input they require, provide ongoing emotional and psychological support as well as providing an in-depth family-centred, holistic approach to their care. UCLH has worked closely with Rays of Sunshine for many years, supporting patients and their families at a very stressful and difficult time, and this has allowed us to collaborate on developing this post. We are excited and grateful to be receiving this funding."
Rays of Sunshine children's charity was formed in 2003 to brighten the lives of seriously ill young people and their families across the UK by granting wishes and providing ongoing support in hospital and within the community.
The charity's work creates a positive distraction, reduces isolation, improves self-esteem and creates precious memories and smiles. Every day of the year, Rays of Sunshine gives brave and deserving young people the chance to put their illness on hold and enjoy a moment of escape.
Over 6,500 wishes have been granted since the charity was formed and their work has touched the lives of more than 60,000 children and young people, not to mention their siblings and parents. Rays of Sunshine was proud to have been awarded The Queens Award for Voluntary Service 2018.

Maintenance yesterday, November 9th, went off without a hitch. This update was to increase trading capacity and improve behavior under high load. A list of changes:
- Our trading engine was upgraded to a more modern server with faster, newer CPUs. This has improved overall latency and queue depth.
- Load-shedding has been implemented. If the trading engine's queue depth grows beyond an internal threshold, new requests will be immediately refused with a
503until the queue shrinks again. Order cancellations are not subject to this restriction.
- We have quadrupled capacity on the subsystem responsible for user authorization and API keys. This is a future-proofing measure and is unlikely to be noticed by users.

Same Day Glasses at Competitive Prices
Contact lenses now come in a variety of comfortable options for a whole range of vision correction needs. If you think you can't wear contact lenses because you wear bifocals or because you have astigmatism, you should come in to Howlett Optical and let us show you some of the contact lenses now available to you. We carry many kinds of lenses, including daily wear lenses, at our Grand Falls-Windsor and Lewisporte locations. Enjoy the freedom and unimpeded peripheral vision you can have with contact lenses!
No lens is more comfortable than one that is new and completely clean. Daily wear lenses are intended to give you that comfort every single time you wear your lenses. Since daily wear lenses are simply discarded after wearing them, you don't have to worry about cleaning and storing the lenses appropriately. It is important to remember that a daily wear lens is not the same thing as a continuous wear lens – daily wear lenses are not intended to be worn while you're sleeping. While daily wear lenses do cost a little more upfront, you'll save money on cleaning solutions and there is less risk of eye infections from improperly cleaned lenses.
Are daily wear lenses for you? Many new lens wearers and younger lens wearers who are not confident of cleaning their lenses correctly find dailies more convenient. People who wear contact lenses only occasionally also find the thinner daily wear lenses easier to wear than thicker non-disposable lenses.
In addition to our in-store inventory of contact lenses, Howlett Optical offers you the convenience of online ordering for a fresh supply of contact lenses. If you already have a current prescription for contact lenses, please use the convenient order form on this page to submit your order. We carry many different brands of contact lenses such as:

Name of healthy foods for healthy and happy life.
Today,FitnessDuniya tells you through this article name of the foods that you can add in your diet for live healthy and happy life.It is advisable to change the diet in terms of season wise weather but there are some foods which keep their utility in every season.These foods are neutral by changing the weather and time and can be a part of your eating plate every season.The right information about the right and nutritious diet can save us from the potential dangers of many diseases.We often forget that the right diet is like a fuel for our body car.Therefore,proper diet and nutrition is very important for the body.
What is healthy and complete diet?
The diet in which all nutrients such as carbohydrates,proteins,fats,vitamis,minerals and fibers are in proper proportion is called a balanced nutritious complete healthy diet.It is obvious that these nutrients are not found in any one or two food items but are found in various food items.These quantities of nutrients depend on the age,physical structure and physical activity of each person.
Importance of balance diet and all other things like Fat,Carbs,Protein,Minerals,Vitamins etc.
Carbohydrates provide energy to perform daily activities but if this nutrient is consumed in excess quantity,one may become obese and in very same level,the person feels tired due to weakness.Protein repairs damaged tissues of the body and is essential element for physical development.Fat is the main source of energy.Soluble vitamin A and vitamin E are found in this and because of very small amount of fat body can not get the necessary vitamins A and E.Obesity may increase due to taking it too much.Vitamins play a major role in keeping the body healthy and avoiding many diseases.Calcium and iron have special significance in minerals.Calcium is essential for the strengthening of teeth,bones,muscles and Iron is essential for the production of hemoglobin in the blood.Sodium,potassium and chlorine are essential for the smooth operation of body muscles.Fiber is essential for keeping the stomach clean.Conclusion - we should take such a diet in which we get all the necessary elements in the appropriate amount.
Name of healthy foods
Curd is easily digested and it provides probiotics to the stomach.It is a good bacteria that helps fight against many diseases.Take a little curd with meals daily.It also keeps your stomach fine and build strong bones.
Gooseberry (Amla)
Good source of vitamin C.You can eat raw or dry and then eat it.Apart from this,it can also be used as a juice to clean the liver.
Barley (Jau)
Barley has the ability to clean all the dirt from the liver and stomach.Barley loaded with high amount of natural fibers.By consuming barley the body gets energy and the body becomes strong too.You can also eat barley flour in your bread,chapati.
Vitamin C is found in tomatoes and it is rich in lycopene,which is an effective antioxidant.Therefore, tomato juice is beneficial in making the liver healthy.
You must include fruits in your daily diet.It is very necessary that you eat all kinds of fruits because every fruit has its own properties.Like Banana loaded with potassium,vitamin C,dietary fibers,magnesium Apple loaded with carbs,fibers,calories,antioxidants Strawberry loaded with iron,phosphorus,iron and many other fruits.

The entanglement dynamics of a laser-pumped two-level quantum dot pair is investigated in the steady state. The closely spaced two-level emitters, embedded in a semiconductor substrate, interact with both the environmental vacuum modes of the electromagnetic field reservoir as well as with the lattice vibrational phonon thermostat. We have found that the entanglement among the pair's components is substantially enhanced due to the presence of the phonon subsystem. The reason is phonon-induced decay among the symmetrical and antisymmetrical two-qubit collective states and, consequently, the population of the latter one. This also means that through thermal phonon bath engineering one can access the subradiant two-particle cooperative state.

Teaching Math in this age requires a lot of technical skills when it comes to creating and implementing curriculum. Luckily there are many programs out there that can guide you on your path to teaching Math in this day and age. In this blog I will give you a quick rundown of the tools I use with my students as we go from paper and pencil to stylus and screen.
The first and most interesting website to me, which is incredibly interactive, is Desmos. Desmos is geared towards most standards from 6th grade to college calculus. It can double as a graphing calculator and the best part is that it is totally free.There are interactive activities that students can give feedback in anonymity, manipulate graphs, and even play games with. You as the teacher, can easily connect this program and activities through google classroom or many other mediums by creating a class code, copying it, and pasting it into a link in Google Classroom.
This leads me into the next program/programs that I use daily which are Gsuite, (formerly known as Google Apps For Education). The main program that I use to give access to websites and information to my students is Google Classroom. It is very easy to set up and can generate class lists for all of the programs I am mentioning in these blogs. To assess my students I use Google Forms which can allow teachers to insert answer keys into the assessments so students can get instant feedback. It also frees up time for teachers because Forms will do the grading for you. There are always new features coming out, most recently the screen lock feature which will lock the screen as seen in Smarter Balanced and MAP assessments. You can also import grades from Forms into your Google Classroom if you do chose to use Google Classroom's grading system.
This leads me into Google Sheets which can be used as grade sheets all the way to creating graphs of students' data. Students and teachers should get familiar with Sheets because it can save massive amounts of time for teachers and gives students a tool to use in their future endeavors. I mainly use it for data analysis of assessments and to post grades in Google Classroom. The students use it to collect, organize, and display data with graphs and tables. I will introduce Sheets to them once we have gone over general statistical analysis tools and how we derive them. Once they know how they work, I will show them that they can compute what would take them 20 minutes into 1 minute. This saves time for the students and allows them to get a better grasp on the story the statistics are displaying.
The beautiful part about Gsuite is that a student can create a spreadsheet and insert it into Google Docs or Google Slides with a few clicks of the mouse. The student can display data in a presentation with a pie, bar, and many other types of graphs of their choosing. The students can all work on these platforms together through sharing them with other classmates, which allows collaboration to be done anywhere, anytime, very easily. Once the students are done with their assignments or presentations all it takes is a couple clicks of the mouse to turn them in to me in Google Classroom.
In part two of my blog I will go over more online platforms that go deeper into Math and Science which can easily be posted into Google Classroom for easy access. If you start with a few of these programs mentioned above, it will not only save you, the teacher time, but it will save the students frustration by making collaboration and access to materials extremely easy.

PALO ALTO (KPIX 5) – An accountant has lost her job after berating a man in public and online for wearing a "Make America Great Again" cap at a Starbucks in Palo Alto.
The confrontation took place at the coffeehouse on California Avenue on Monday, which quickly went viral.
Since losing her job, the woman has seemed to have gone into hiding, while the man was spotted wearing the hat Wednesday.
"You know, America is still a free country right?" said Victor F., a 74-year-old supporter of the president who lives in Palo Alto.
Victor casually went about his business on California Avenue on Wednesday, still sporting the red hat that prompted the loud confrontation at the Starbucks.
"This crazy woman came over and started raving at me. She turned to the rest of Starbucks and said, 'Hey everybody, here's this racist over here. He hates brown people, he's crazy, he's a Nazi,' and so forth," Victor told KPIX 5.
The woman, Rebecca Parker Mankey, then began taking photos and posting about it on her Facebook page, saying she was going to shame him, get him fired, kicked out of clubs and march up and down his street.
Victor says she left, then came back and tried to rile the Starbucks crowd once more.

"'Hey everybody here's this racist,' and so on. And then as she wrote in her thing, she was disappointed everybody didn't come and mob me," he said.
In fact, the opposite happened. People started harassing Parker Mankey's family and her employer Gryphon Stringed Instruments, where she was an accountant.
The store owner decided to fire her after he read her Facebook posts.
"We feel that music is what brings people together. So having someone then making comments that are so divisive is not consistent with our values," said store owner Richard Johnston.
No one answered the door at Parker Mankey's home, but a female spoke through a closed window saying Rebecca doesn't live here.
"She didn't want to discuss the issues with me. She wanted just to scream about Nazi's and so on and that's what we've sunken to," Victor said.
Victor wears a yarmulke underneath his MAGA hat. He is Jewish and so to him, being called a Nazi is hurtful.
"People with an education should know better than to say stupid things like that," he said.
goos for the facist
If we see her or her husband in public we will DEMAND the locations refuse service to them due to her now famous rants that can affect all customers,
Her husband willie mankey works for the PALO ALTO SCHOOL DISTRICT and we demand he be fired also! by his guilt by association collusion and as a bad influence on all children due to his wifes insane conduct for a old man in a hat.
So people whenever we see her in a food place or other demand her removal since next she will be complaining about the food your eating
bahahahaahahaha! she should be charged with disorderly conduct and if she touched him with battery.
Racist and bigoted liberals do bigoted things.
If one limits their news source to just MSNBC, this type type of behavior can be understood.
The woman is delusional and really should consider consulting a mental health professional. She is not unlike the Klan members that my father's family had to fight a shooting war against since they would simply not stop trying to lynch his family, his relatives, and some of their neighbors. The Klan may be dead; but this is one very big reason that I will always oppose so-called sensible gun laws. The first proponents of nationwide gun control were the KKK – disarmed southerners couldn't fight back; armed Coloradans, Indianans, New Jersey residents, and Oregonians could and did fight back. Few people realize that in the 1910s – 1920s the Klan was far larger in the North than in the South, that they ruled a number of Northern states, and that sundown towns were more pervasive in the north and west than in the south well into the 1960s. Today's Klan now has a new name and is composed of ANTIFA and other "Resistance" members like this woman – and they are just as dangerous and deadly and likely to attempt to rally lynch mobs. Fortunately for her intended victim, the other patrons were not interested in joining her in a mob.
Umm, besides being a raging lunatic, she may be just a plain idiot. She wanted to get a 74 year old man fired from his job(retired), wanted to know where his kids went to school (maybe gran-kids, pretty sure his children would be grown) called a Jewish man a Nazi. She's just wrong and hateful in so may ways.
Good she had it coming!
The only thing worse than people who feel compelled to wear something in public that announces a contentious view is those who would take the bait and respond like an even bigger idiot. Yet another story that belittles purported human intelligence.
yeh well you have a mask on your stupid face
She should have gotten a raise.
Yeah, raised by a noose around her filthy pencil neck.
Liberal females are the true HOME-GROWN TERRORISTS and should be treated as such. Eliminate them at any & all costs.
There are two major political parties in the United States, the republicans and the democrats. Not the Nazi party. Sadly, when democrats lose elections, it's always because the other side is Nazi, or colluding with Russia, or something. Just imagine if people wearing "I like Ike" buttons were harassed and beaten up in public. Or JFK. We would never have gotten this far as a nation. The deranged democrats like this woman should be muzzled or put in straight jackets by their loved ones or this country will find itself in civil war.
Those are not democrats that behave like that…They are socialists. Her hubby works for the school district. Socialists.
I've been thinking about this woman. I don't think she was out of control. I think this was a planned attack designed to spark a physical response from him and then she could play the victim card. This man's wisdom and calm response destroyed her plan.

The Pacific Crest Trail, officially designated as the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail (PCT) is a long-distance hiking and equestrian trail closely aligned with the highest portion of the Cascade and Sierra Nevada mountain ranges, which lie 100 to 150 miles east of the U.S. Pacific coast. The trail's southern terminus is just south of Campo, California by the U.S. border with Mexico, and its northern terminus is on the Canada/US border on the edge of Manning Park in British Columbia; it passes through the U.S. in the states of California, Oregon, and Washington.
The Pacific Crest Trail is 2,653 mi long and ranges in elevation from just above sea level at the Oregon / Washington border to 13,153 feet at Forester Pass in the Sierra Nevada. The route passes through 25 national forests and 7 national parks. Its midpoint is near Chester, California (near Mt. Lassen), where the Sierra and Cascade mountain ranges meet.
It was designated a National Scenic Trail in 1968, although it was not officially completed until 1993. The PCT was conceived by Clinton Churchill Clarke in 1932. It received official status under the National Trails System Act of 1968.
The Pacific Crest Trail, the Appalachian Trail, and the Continental Divide Trail form what is known as the Triple Crown of Hiking in the United States. The Pacific Crest Trail is also part of the 6,875-mile Great Western Loop.
