A fumarole (Latin fumus, smoke) is an opening in Earth's (or any other astronomical body's) crust, often in the neighborhood of volcanoes, which emits steam and gases such as carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, hydrochloric acid, and hydrogen sulfide. The name solfatara, from the Italian solfo, sulfur (via the Sicilian dialect), is given to fumaroles that emit sulfurous gases.
Fumaroles may occur along tiny cracks or long fissures, in chaotic clusters or fields, and on the surfaces of lava flows and thick deposits of pyroclastic flows. A fumarole field is an area of thermal springs and gas vents where magma or hot igneous rocks at shallow depth are releasing gases or interacting with groundwater. From the perspective of groundwater, fumaroles could be described as a hot spring that boils off all its water before the water reaches the surface.
A good example of fumarole activity on Earth is the famous Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes, which was formed during the 1912 eruption of Novarupta in Alaska. Initially, there were thousands of fumaroles in the cooling ash from the eruption, but over time most of them have become extinct. Fumaroles may persist for decades or centuries if they are above a persistent heat source, or disappear within weeks to months if they occur atop a fresh volcanic deposit that quickly cools. There are also an estimated four thousand fumaroles within the boundaries of Yellowstone National Park. Around 2009, a fumarole opened up on Chair 3 at Mammoth Mountain Ski Resort in California. A mesh fence and warning sign was put around the hole to warn skiers of the danger. www.facebook.com/BRJINC

Telescopic Ultrasound Cover
General purpose ultrasound probe cover
Telescopically folded
sterile, single use
Made in the USA
- Description
- Resources
- Additional information
- Reviews (0)
Telescopic Ultrasound Cover
The telescopic ultrasound cover allows for a quick and seamless application of the cover over the ultrasound transducer. Telescopic folding suits both 1-person and 2-person setup protocols, and will help you save time before and after each procedure
It also reduces the risk of mishandling the cover or transducer: your sterile environment stays safe
This ultrasound cover will keep your equipment from being soiled by body fluids or contaminants. No soil means faster cleaning and more effective disinfection. It also represents an active barrier against cross-contamination: keep the bugs away from your transducer!
No Latex, No Problem
Besides, the telescopically-folded probe covers are available in two non-latex materials: the Soft Covers and the Clear Covers.
The Soft Covers are the best alternative to latex: they are comfortable for patients, and also emulate the properties of human tissue for high-quality scanning. As a result, it is very popular for interventional procedures: biopsy, drainage, vascular access or anesthesia. Soft covers are tear-resistant and highly stretchable
The Clear covers use medical-grade polyethylene. While resistant and reliable, they are also the most cost-effective probe covers. An alternative to the clear material is the latex-free ultrasound probe cover from EDM, in strong polyethylene.
All the telescopic covers feature a 3D end, which means that no seam or seal will ever interfere with the probe's sensors: scan as if no cover was there!
With a minimum length of 36″ (and up to 58″), we make sure our telescopic probe cover also protects the transducer's cord and lets you focus on patients.
Each procedure kit includes a Parker Aquasonic 100 sterile gel packet (20mL) and two elastic bands (Except for the 100-cover box that DOES NOT come with gel). Every procedure kit is sterilized using ethylene oxide (ETO)
Proudly made in the USA

Goooooooooooooood afternoon, fellow fur face fans! It's Friyay, which means just a few more hours before we can enjoy chill weekend afternoons sippin' on mugs of coffee and perhaps cuddling with our pet besties. So, to help tide ya over till that office clock ticks 5 o'clock, here are some of the best fur faces from last Friday.
Before we get started, though, let's lay out the ground rules:
In case you're new (in which case, welcome!): Favorites are chosen by one of the Snout Selectors (KrabbyPaddy, facw, Xyl0c41n3, Chuckles, CBG, or you!), entirely on our own whimsy. WHIMSY. However, in the interest of solidarity, we try to select one dog picture and one cat picture (minimum!) each week. Other pets will also, of course, be considered. We love all your rats, bunnies, ferrets and other furry, feathery & finny pals. WE WILL NEVER DISCRIMINATE AGAINST CUTE. As always, we're happy to dismiss any pictures if you decide you want them taken down at some point.
If you don't have a pet of your own to feature this week, I highly recommend featuring and linking to any cuties who are available for adoption and looking for a home on any shelter or rescue site. I know I'm not the only one lurking on Petfinder!
In that sharing spirit, if you don't have a pet but want to participate, drop off your best Internet find of an animal gif or meme or tweet in the comments. The more animal lovers, the merrier:) Speaking of sharing, feel free to share these posts anywhere in the Kinja-verse, because it has been scientifically documented that looking at pictures of cute animals reduces stress.
First up we have one of my fave FFF regulars, Immoral Minority's Pumpkin. She rules the roost at the IM house, which includes her, some adorkable puppers, IM and his better half, and a Vespa and a sunny yellow Sunchaser. Sounds like pretty sweet digs for a tortie, if you ask me.
And who could say no to the glittering jewel-like eyes of this gorgeous diva, Harpur?! He belongs to Bertolt Brechtiosaurus.
Sticking with the kitty theme, That Bastard Kurtis' Junpei is the master of nap time:
But you know who isn't a master of nap time? My own Enzo, who rolled himself off the bed in an unceremonious heap one morning. He was rather indignant that his belly flop made me laugh. Heh.
And farscythe's chewie is equally bad at knowing how to chair, apparently.
That sunshine in the last photo looks warm. And warm summer days mean naps, as MK7RLSG's Kaladin demonstrates.
Meanwhile, Georgia Blythe's Ellie had SO MUCH FUN at the boarding place, aka: doggy summer camp:
Doggo smiles really are the best, aren't they? I mean, just check out the sunshine on this happy face, Wagon Guy's Skye:
And finally, we have Duck Duck Grey Duck's newest rescue pupper, Bonnie, who knows the best nap time secret of them all: hoomans make the best beds!
That's it for this week, folks! Now it's time to show us what your four-legged friends are up to this week!
Ready, set, go!

Dermatitis: Inflammation of the skin, either due to an inherent skin defect, direct contact with an irritating substance, or to an allergic reaction. Symptoms of dermatitis include redness, itching, and in some cases blistering.
Eczema can be particularly severe and difficult to treat once it is established. Treatment is two-fold. People who suffer from dermatitis must identify and avoid substances that cause attacks. During attacks they may use topical treatments, such as steroid creams.

The goal of this project is to develop in parallel two distinct tools designed to help the Valaisan parliament in his process towards a parliament without paper. On one hand, an indexing and retrieval system that uses automatic speech recognition to index words pronounced by deputies during political debates. The end user will be able to query the index using a web interface and the browse a chosen deputy intervention. On the other side, an advanced automatic speech recognition transcription ystem that is able to identify spoken language and automatically transcribe French and German speech. This system will be robust to the different Valaisan and non-native speakers' accents. Furthermore, a specific language model will be built to match the grammar and terms related to political speech.

SKS Manufacturing has recently hired Deloitte & Touche as they are in a critical cash position with various internal inefficiencies in their procurement and production processes. Deloitte & Touche and SKS Manufacturing will need to work together in order to solve the issues present at SKS Manufacturing so they can be successful within the automotive parts industry.
Issues & Analysis
There are three key issues that are present at SKS Manufacturing that need to be systematically tackled in order for stabilization of the business to occur and the long-term redesigning process to be effective. The key issues facing SKS Manufacturing are: (1) cash flow shortage (2) weak alignment and integration within the value chain and (3) …show more content…
Inadequate procurement decisions are being made because of a lack of resources to provide adequate forecasting of orders. SKS Manufacturing has 3 types of customers which are as follows: 3 major customers (65%), International customers (3%) and other (32%). The 3 major customers of SKS Manufacturing account for majority of their revenues and are stable customers, thus forecasting their needs would be easily evaluated due to their yearly buying patterns. However, this information is
not being shared throughout the organization and ineffective buying decisions are being made. Additionally due to weak forecasting and poor procurement decisions, production is not synchronized adequately causing overflow of products (A3). This is increasing their inventory levels and they are being forced to utilize storage space that they should not have such as the "extra" warehouse location that is not at an optimal location, increasing further costs. Looking in to the procurement and production process is a key long-term issue that needs to be streamlined as much as possible (A2).
Prioritized Recommendation
The following recommendations need to be implemented systematically in order for SKS Manufacturing to be able to survive and grow in the future within the automotive industry.
Increase Cashflow
One of the immediate actions that SKS Manufacturing needs to take is to free up cash by reducing inventory

newbie to the group
Well I wanted to stop in and say HI...Im a single parent to a almost 7yr old son. It sure hasn't been a easy task being a parent let alone a single mom. I was on LJ before he was born and made some good friends. So Im hoping to do the same again but this time with people of similar interests.
My son has been the strength I need to go on each day. Especially lately since I was laid off...I have been real down but knowing I have a reason to get up each day has kept me going.
I dont want to bore anyone on my first visit here...just wanted to stop in. Im relearning LJ again so give me time to get my profile up and running.
Have a great night!!!

I hate to say it, but Christmas is on the way. To me that means trying to win presents! Being on a lower income is a bit depressing when my lads are writing Christmas lists, but they've written them early so I know what I want to win at least.
For D it's mainly Lego Technics, and Jen mostly wants HotWheels. Obviously if I haven't won these things by December I will buy them, using my best bargain hunting skills, but winning them would be much better! I am late posting this week as man flu kindly shared by my boys has made me feel rather rubbish.
Anyways, if you haven't been over to #WinningWeekends before it is a competitions linky. A list of blog based, open to the UK, competitions. I started this linky as I like competitions and know bloggers can get lots of new followers from competitions. As I am both a blogger and a comper I totally love anything to do with competitions and it is great fun when you win something you want.
If you are a blogger, share your competition urls here. If you are a comper just get entering and winning things.
Please note, the linky widget confuses people because it says "NAME" please pretend that says "link name" or "post title". If you can mention the prize and closing date in there it would be great.

Traveling to Europe and want to know what Visa's you'll need?
Traveling to Europe and want to know what Visa's you'll need? If you don't know, you had better do some research early as Visas can take up to three months to obtain. There are three types of authorized entry toEurope for International Vacationers:
1. Schengen Visa
2. ETIAS Visa Waiver.
3. Direct Visa application
1. Schengen Visa
The EU established one border for the whole of Europe, to reduce the number of visas needed. A Schengen visa is a short stay visa that allows the holder to enter and freely move within the Schengen area of 26 counties. These are Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland.
Who must apply?
The following nationals do not require a Schengen Visa. United States of America, United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Albania, Andorra, Antigua & Bermuda, Argentina, Bahamas, Barbados, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Brazil, Brunei, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Dominica, El Salvador, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Georgia, Grenada, Guatemala, Vatican City State, Honduras, Israel, Japan, Kiribati, Malaysia, Marshall Islands, Mauritius, Mexico, Micronesia, Moldova, Monaco, Montenegro, Nicaragua, Palau, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Samoa, San Marino, Seychelles, Serbia, Singapore, Solomon Islands, South Korea, St Kitts & Nevis, St Lucia, St Vincent & The Grenadines, Timor-Leste, Tonga, Trinidad & Tobago, Tuvalu, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, Uruguay, Vanuatu, Venezuela.
In 2021 people from these countries will need to complete an ETAIS application (see below). If your country does not appear above, then you will need a Schengen Visa.
How do I get a Schengen Visa?
You must lodge your application for a Schengen Visa at the Consulate of the country that you intend to visit. If you intend to visit more than one Schengen State, choose the country where you will spend the longest time. If you are visiting multiple counties choose the country where you intend to spend the most time. When visitng several countries for an equal time period, choose the country where you will first arrive. You can check where the consulates are in your country by looking here.
The current cost for a Schengen Visa is €60 per person, €35 for children under the age of 12 years.
The application can be lodged up to 3 months prior to travel. We recommend getting your application in well before final payment of your tour. A decision is usually made within 15 days however, in individual cases it may take up to 30 days and exceptionally 60 days.
For up to date information about the Schengen Visa please read here.
2. ETIAS Visa Waiver
The European Travel Information and Authorization System (ETIAS) Waiver Form is a digital system (similar to the USA's ESTA) that allows entry and keep track of visitors from countries who do not need a visa to the Schengen Zone. Travelers who fill out the ETIAS Waiver form authorize the EU to carry out pre-travel screening for security and migration risks of visa-exempt visitors. It was designed to save time and improve security.
Toward the end of 2021, non-Schengen visa travelers will have to complete an online application before visiting 22 of the Schengen countries which include:
Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland.
The online application takes around 10 minutes and includes passport, background and basic personal information such as drug use, terrorism, criminal history etc. The fee is €7 (approximately US$8) and is valid for three years.3
3. Applying Direct Per Country for a Visa
Some European countries are not currently operating under the Schengen agreement. These European countries are mostly in the Balkans and include Albania, Belarus, Bosnia Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Ireland, Kosovo, Macedonia, Moldova, Montenegro, Romania, Serbia, Turkey, Ukraine and the United Kingdom. There are so many vastly different nations in Europe. The individual nation requirements change regularly and are unique to each country. Therefore, it is best that you contact these countries directly to see what type of Visa requirements they have to gain entry.

Hyderabad blast: Acquitted happy to be free but jailers convinced they're guilty
Unless cases are disposed of in 6 months after chargesheet, the guilty will go scot free as witnesses may forget the turn of events, some may go absconding, says DG, State Prisons, Telangana
Published: 12th August 2017 08:54 AM | Last Updated: 12th August 2017 04:11 PM | A+A A-
- Blast case: Acquitted persons want to lead a normal life
HYDERABAD: From the time a verdict was in sight on the old task force office suicide bomb blast case of 2005, the nine accused who were serving as undertrials for over 10 years had grown in confidence, prison officials say.
They were rude and arrogant, say prison officials, and have openly admitted to having committed the crime - that of exploding a bomb inside the old task force office in Begumpet on October 12, 2005.
"They openly admitted involvement in the blast. But then, they were confident of walking out free. Even if they were sentenced by the court, they have served over 10 years as undertrials," said a senior official on Friday. They were reportedly also sure of acquittal in the wake of shoddy investigation in the case.
The same accused persons had, on 31 January 2011, allegedly assaulted prison staff when they were lodged in Cherlapally central prison, recalled a prison official.
"They were 20 terrorist accused inside the prison. They were provided with cricket kits for recreational purposes. On January 31, 2011, we got information that they were using at least five mobile phones," said KV Reddy, former superintendent of Cherlapally prison. According to him, prison staff went inside the cell to warn them on receipt of information. "We were bare-handed, but they attacked us.
One of our jailer Hanuman Prasad had a major head injury leading to 28 sutures, his hand and leg were fractured. Jailers Srinivas Reddy, Sridhar Reddy and Gopi Reddy suffered fractures. Warder Praveen lost his right hand index finger," said Reddy, adding that the government did not announce any compensation or award to them.
All of them were, however, acquitted in the case last year and later shifted to Chanchalguda central prison after the construction of new blocks.
Of the 10 acquitted persons, Md Abdul Khaleem, Shakeel Ahmed, Md Hazi, Ajmal Ali Khan, Syed Ajmath Ali, Amjed alias Khaja and Md Abdul Zaheb were released late night from Chanchalguda prison.
Md Abdul Zaheb, against whom Nampally police had booked a separate case for abusing and attempting to attack two policemen on duty in the court hall in 2016, was also granted bail on Thursday iteself. Another acquitted person Mohammed Mahmood Baroodwala was already on bail.
"Until and unless cases are disposed off in 6 months after chargesheet, guilty will go scot free. The prosecution gets impacted as some of the witnesses may forget the turn of events, some may go absconding due to multiple factors," said VK Singh, director general of Telangana state prisons. According to him, in the absence of a speedy trial, some innocent persons framed in the case also end up languishing in jail.
13 terror undertrials left at Chanchalguda central prison
Till Thursday, Chanchalguda central prison housed 20 terror undertrials including a Bangladeshi national. After acquittal and release in the old task force office suicide bomb blast case, there are 13 terror undertrials remaining there.
Of these 13, Md Hilaluddin of Bangladesh and Nafiqul Biswas of West Bengal, acquitted in suicide bomb blast case on Thursday, are being shifted to Janpur jail in Uttar Pradesh for their alleged involvement in cases there. Three persons, namely Akbar Ismail Chowdhary, Aneeq Shafeeq, Sadiq Shaikh, accused in Gokul Chat blast case of 2007 have served 2 years in Ahmedabad and Mumbai jails and three years in Chanchalguda till now.
Similarly, eight persons, namely, Abdullah Bin Ahmed Al Amoodi, Mohammed Ibrahim Yazdani, Habeeb Mohammed, Mohammed Ilyas Yazdani, Muzaffar Hussain Rizwan, Yasir Naimathullah, Mohd Ataullah Rahman and Abdul Raoof, chargesheeted by NIA in ISIS related cases have been lodged in Chanchalguda for last one year.
Undertrials, convicts and detenues in Telangana prisons:
3,798 male and 324 female undertrials in Telangana prisons.
1,842 male and 160 female convicts in Telangana prisons.
208 male and 3 female detenues in Telangana prisons.
AK Mohanty's son to take ahead the case now
HYDERABAD: Former IPS officer AK Mohanty was the one who monitored the Task Force suicide bomb case 12 years back and now his son and IPS officer Avinash Mohanty is now going to take ahead the case after the court acquitted all the arrested accused in the sensational case. AK Mohanty was the city police commissioner when the blast took place in 2005.
Being a high profile case that shook the entire state, AK Mohanty personally monitored the case. The blast took place just one month after AK Mohanty took charge as CP. After 12 years of trial, the court acquitted ten accused in the case. However, AK Mohanty's son, Avinash, who is heading the SIT, will not take ahead the case as the police department had decided to challenge the case in appealing in higher court.

Arabic children live in an unstable political and economic conditions, which reflects in their life qualities. Children who are begging is a phenomenon that exists almost in every city all over the world, and its known that the numbers of children bellow 18 years old is about 150 million children.
In our countries, most of the child-beggars they work to help their families, a phenomenon which we call partial homelessness. There are also children who don't have a shelter, as fully homeless, these kids they life in very hard life conditions. They becoming victims of violence and sexual exploitation which leads to usage of toxic substances such as benzene and drugs. There are also beggars who do it as a profession.
These days we see more homelessness of children, because of factors such as poverty, parents abuse that pushes the child to flee out their homes, and lack of basic child needs. This pushes the child outside of his family toward the streets.
If you imagine yourself without a shelter and without any care, living on the side of the society with no hope of help to get back, you realize that you were lucky to be born in a family that could help you grow up and showed you the life.

I wish to tell you that I don't love you anymore.
Yes, that is the only reason I'm writing to you. To put an end to us. And we were, we were for a very long time. For too long.
I've realised that I stopped caring long time ago, but I refused to admit it to myself.
It's incredible how desperately us women stick to our habits, how easily we succumb to our fears. We dare not call it quits. We don't seem to understand that this one life is too short to waste it on the wrong people.
You may not have been wrong from the start, but from the moment we transited from the beginning to the continuation, the magic disappeared.
Not because I didn't love you, but because you didn't love me.
But we were together for a long time, for too long. And it felt wonderful.
No, that is not true. You felt wonderful.
It's wonderful to be with me. I would gladly be in a relationship with someone like me.
It was great for you. Not so for me. I just squandered years waiting for I don't know what? For something to change? For you to change?
People never change, I'm finally aware of that. You are as you were then. One beautiful autumn day the idyll was dissipated. I just didn't realise it at the time. One fine autumn day, you were back to being the old you again, the way you were before you met me.
And me, I'm the same old me: persistant and loyal.
I wish to tell you I don't love you anymore. I stopped caring about you a long time ago, but I only recently realised that.
I wish you well. There's no reason why I shouldn't.
In fact, I wish you what you wish me.
When love is gone, when the disappointment and hatred disappear too, all that's left is Nothing.
Maybe only regret for the time lost.
And maybe not even that.

I have a confession to make. It was really stupid of me to purchase those two bags of jumbo strawberry marshmallows. In my own defense they were pink, so my guess was they were a Valentine's Day candy. That being the case I worried they would disappear from the store soon after the holiday, so if I didn't buy them when I did, I would never get to try them. Maybe they were a holiday treat and maybe not, but at Target this weekend they were still on the shelf. They are not, however, still in my closet.
That's right, the Sunday after Game Night I could resist the call no more. I tore into the bag of marshmallows and over the course of that day and the next, finished the whole bag. Wow. They were delicious!! Greenwald was right, man, they were delectable and fresh and soft and sweet… and wow, I felt like crap.
Decided not to beat myself up too much about it and move on. Not sure if you know this, but I read recently that dwelling on sad events, ruminating, can be very detrimental to your emotional health. It really is best to keep moving forward. Not to say you shouldn't learn from your mistakes, just don't dig yourself a big mire from which you cannot extricate yourself.
So I thought, no problem, I'll just open the second bag on Easter.
This past Saturday I was overwhelmed by a craving for sweets. No way was I waiting for Easter. Tearing into the second bag, I maowed half of it in one sitting then felt my belly push out and my head begin to throb. Huhn, I thought, what the F am I doing? I did the only thing I could at that point, I threw the rest of the bag into the garbage. Grabbed the other candies I'd purchased, too, opened the bags and poured them into the trash as well. No more temptation. And yes, I really did open the bags and pour the contents in the garbage. Otherwise I would have dug in there later like a raccoon in the middle of the night…
Now, why did I think I could resist keeping this mother lode in my closet? I am not sure. I used to be able to hoard and squirrel things away when Todd and I were living together. I had to, because if he knew about it, he'd eat it. But now… now I'm like he was, actually. Last night I bought a pint of Ben & Jerry's chocolate fudge brownie frozen yogurt. I thought I'd just eat some of it and put it away, but oh no, no no. It's gone. The whole pint.
Not sure precisely when this change happened in me. I do know that I've never been a big ice cream person. When they told me that one of the drugs they were giving me in my chemo cocktail would make it so I couldn't eat anything too cold, I thought, fine, no problem. A few days later all I wanted was ice cream. Psychology anyone? Right, I know… I know.
And in the interest of full disclosure, a sentence I believe I've used in here before, at Tony's Oscar Party I had not one, not two, but THREE mini chocolate eclairs and helped destroy the bag of Kettle Corn I brought (OMG, Kettle Corn is so good, it's devil corn. Even Tony was shocked by its addictive quality). Technically these sweets (and the first bout with the marshmallows) were allowed under the rules of Lent because Lent gives Sundays as a day off (otherwise it'd be 46 days instead of 40). But I have never followed those rules to T. Till now, I guess.
You can guess the outcome here. No more sweet treats for Roo till Easter. Hot chocolate is about my limit.

I have represented ratepayers as a councillor for the past eight years, first with Wallace and then with the amalgamated municipality of Wallace-Woodworth. Currently I am Deputy Reeve.
I have lived in the Hargrave area for sixteen years. My husband Brian and I run a mixed farming operation and I am postmaster for the Hargrave Post Office. I enjoy the time I spend volunteering and supporting events in the area.
I consider serving on council a privilege and find the work gratifying. I prepare for each meeting, ask the difficult questions and request relevant information necessary to make the best decision. I am proud of the way the current council has worked together since amalgamation. We have established a good foundation to build on.
But, councils do not always get it right. I believe council needs to acknowledge and take ownership of mistakes, address things that can be done better and recommend necessary changes. I believe council should conduct itself with integrity, and operate according to principles of transparency and accountability, fairly representing all ratepayers regardless of where they live in the municipality. Council needs to engage the ratepayers, to understand and be responsive to their needs.
The decisions council makes impact your lives on a day to day basis. Challenges such as development, infrastructure, public safety, recreation, agreements with neighbouring municipalities, and negotiations with the federal and provincial governments, are dealt with on a regular basis.
Decision making must incorporate various factors, particularly financial implications for both the municipality and ratepayers.
I am confident that, if elected Reeve, I can guide council through the process and into the future.

Purpose: To evaluate foveal microstructural changes and to determine its association with visual outcomes after reattachment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachments (RRDs) by scleral buckling (SB) or pars plana vitrectomy (PPV).Methods: Using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), foveal microstructure in eyes with macula-off RRD were studied 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15 months after PPV or SB and correlated with visual outcomes.Results: Forty-two eyes were included in the final analysis. Even with improved microstructural changes and normalization of retinal structures on OCT, final visual acuity was not correlated with microstructural changes in eyes undergoing PPV. In the SB group, final visual acuity was significantly correlated with an intact inner segment/outer segment (IS/OS) junction (P = 0.013). There was no significant correlation between final visual acuity and presence of subretinal fluid (SRF) in either group.Conclusion: After SB, eyes with an intact IS/OS junction had better final visual acuity. In the PPV group, there was no significant correlation between microstructural changes and visual acuity. The presence of SRF did not influence final visual acuity in both groups.

Cardiac Rehabilitation Program
The CSCE in Bourget had a busy year with the Cardiac Rehabilitation Program, which has been welcoming clients since April 2018. This program was created in collaboration with the University of Ottawa Heart Institute. Eligible clients have generally been hospitalized for one of the following heart conditions and referred by a Heart Institute physician:
The Cardiac Rehabilitation Program is a three to six-month program that includes education, a follow-up by a kinesiologist (physical activity specialist) and the services of a nurse specializing in cardiac rehabilitation.
This program was made possible thanks to the determination of François Cholette, kinesiologist, and Ariane Gratton, nurse.
Learn more about the Cardiac Rehabilitation Program
Lung Health Program
The Lung Health Program has been offered in French at the Bourget, Crysler, Embrun and Limoges locations since 2018. It is designed for people with a COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) diagnosis or who suffer from COPD symptoms to help them better manage their condition. Its goal is to improve the client's quality of life and promote self-management of the disease. The program includes an assessment, recommendations based on the Canadian Thoracic Society's guidelines, education resources, support for developing an action plan and follow-up care.
A respiratory therapist helps clients identify symptoms, use respiratory medications (inhalers or pumps) and master breathing techniques.
This program is offered through the Ottawa Community Lung Health Program of the Somerset West Community Health Centre.
Volunteer Contribution: A Precious Commodity at the CSCE
This year, in order to offer fitness groups in a greater number of communities, a health promoter from the CSCE trained volunteers to act as fitness instructors. The fitness groups target people aged 55 and over.
Volunteers are crucial to ensuring the CSCE's success. Their talents, as well as the time and energy they invest enrich the work that we do. Thank you to all the volunteers at the CSCE!
The Story of Ms. Villeneuve
Gisèle Villeneuve is a member of the Cornwall community who had lost her enthusiasm and sunny disposition. Having left a marriage that lasted over 40 years, she was going through difficult times. But Ms. Villeneuve wanted to get better.
She started seeing a psychologist at the CSCE in Cornwall who told her about a knitting group called Les joyeuses tricoteuses. The group meets weekly at the CSCE thanks to the initiative of the community health team. Ms. Villeneuve started going to the knitting club every week, and she finally started smiling and living again.
Since then, Ms. Villeneuve has continued to attend the knitting group but she also participates in several other activities, like bean bag toss games and exercise groups organized by the CSCE. She has learned to eat better, has lost weight and has rediscovered happiness.
Thanks to the CSCE, Ms. Villeneuve overcame her isolation, developed a sense of belonging to her community and improved her physical and mental health.
Ms. Villeneuve's story reflects the importance of providing appropriate services to the francophone clientele of our communities. And she's not alone! We frequently receive these kinds of testimonies, each one as touching as the next, which remind us how the CSCE can make a positive difference in people's lives.
The Story of Mrs. Shires
Louise Shires is a francophone citizen from Limoges and a client at the CSCE. Since the opening of the Carrefour santé in Limoges, she no longer has to drive to a clinic in a neighbouring municipality for health care services. She can now simply walk to the CSCE to access a full range of health services near her home.
What Mrs. Shire prefers most about the Carrefour santé are the exercise groups offered by the CSCE. Thanks to these groups, she keeps fit and feels less isolated. Every week, the CSCE's community room is filled with participants from the "Get moving, for better balance!" fitness program. This weekly activity allows her to socialize and interact with other members of her community while staying fit.

UK shoppers are feeling increasingly strained about splashing their cash because only a third feel better off than a year ago, new research has found.
The latest Lloyds Bank Spending Power Report, which surveys over 2,000 bank account holders in the UK, revealed that only 35 per cent of working consumers felt their household income had increased over the last 12 months.
It said that 36 per cent reported that they have seen no change in their household's income but over 17 per cent of consumers, who have not retired, believe they have actually seen a decrease.
Of those the hardest hit were either working in the public sector, earning up to £34,999 or above the age of 35.
Despite some respite provided by recent reports of falling inflation and an increase in year on year average earnings growth the Lloyds report found that UK households have experienced extra pressure on their spending power over the past 12 months squeezing outgoings.
It said that there was a three per cent year-on-year growth in essential spending – such as debt payments, utility bills, council tax, TV licences, food and fuel, during February with gas and electricity up by over five per cent year-on-year.
That is the seventh consecutive month of spending increase.

- Eat 17: An entrepreneurial story that started with living in a van
- High street retailers are capitalising on the growing demand for in-store experiences
Lloyds said it was "no surprise" that consumers reported feeling increasingly pessimistic. Those surveyed were found to be increasingly negative compared to last year about inflation and the country's financial situation.
"Whilst consumers will have been pleased to see the gap closing between inflation and wage growth in February, our research shows that UK households still feel they have been under real financial pressure in 2018," said Robin Bulloch, managing director of Lloyds Bank.
"Inflation remains high, and people are having to make their money go further as a result of muted household income growth. We would encourage consumers to actively manage their finances and keep an eye on their discretionary spending."
The Lloyds Bank research also showed that home owners, more so than renters, have experienced larger decreases in household income over the past 12 months.
Of those who claim their household income has deteriorated, nearly one in four homeowners believe it has reduced by more than 20 per cent, whereas only 16 per cent of renters report reductions of the same proportion.
Independent stores hailed as high street saviours amid big-name causalities
New research has revealed that there was "extraordinary growth" in the number of independent stores being launched last year throughout the UK.

Vacation Weight Loss! You could lose grams!
Want to lose weight fast? Then jump on a plane to the equator!
As our planet hurtles relentlessly through space, it rotates to give us night and day. Although Earth takes 24 hours to make just one revolution, its sheer size means a person stood on the equator has angular speed of over 1000mph!! Here in Ilkley, my home town, which is at around 54ºN, angular speed is around 600mph. A person stood on the north or south pole however has angular speed of Zero. Zilch. Nada. So what on Earth does this have to do with weight loss?
Well, you know that force you feel when you go round a bend in a car, or frolic on a roundabout in a kids' playpark? You can use that force to SHIFT EXCESS GRAMS!
Using this equation we can calculate the effect it has on your weight at 54º latitude. You just need to know the radius of the earth R, some higher GCSE trigonometry and some AS-Level mechanics (to find the radial component of the centripetal force), and you find that a 100kg man/woman/hermeaphrodite/eunuch in Ilkley is subject to a radial force of 1.2 Newtons, which translates to a whopping 120g! That's how much a fat eskimo would lose instantly by relocating to Ilkley.
So what about a posh Ilkley dweller moving to sunny Kenya? Well this time the maths is a lot simpler. You can just plug a few numbers into the above equation; no trig involved at all. The centripetal force acting on our 100kg man or woman at the equator amounts to 3.4 Newtons – that's a flabberghasting 340 grams!!
In summary then, a 100kg over-eater from Ilkley can lose 220 grams (anyone can lose 0.22% of their body mass) by upping sticks and settling down for a new life on the equator. And the good news is that even heavier people can lose even more weight! Happy holidays!!
NB: Aeroplanes are horribly unhealthy things. If you really are wanting to lose weight by going to the equator then I recommend walking there.

Following your Christmas carousing, with the passing of the soporific turkey coma, having opened, played with, and broken all your presents, suppose you were to wander down to the bookstore (while they still exist), to browse about.
If you were walking down the aisle and saw a book that is set in the town where you're living, would you stop to look at it? Don't try to lie to me, because that was a rhetorical question. And if the book had interesting elements, like theological discussions, explorations of metaphysical conundrums, or crazy hot sex scenes, would you buy it and read it? Don't try to lie to me.
I was driving home this afternoon from the north Georgia mountains, where I spent Christmas, and on the radio from a local college station, I heard a writer being interviewed about a book he had written. The book was set in the Nacoochee Valley, which is where I had basically been. I somewhat know that area (in fact I lived there for a while), so the discussion of the book caught my attention. Regarding a different book, I'm also currently reading Someone Else's Love Story by Joshilyn Jackson, who lives close to me, over in Decatur. More pertinently, the book takes place in contemporary Atlanta and Decatur, and I know all the places being talked about.
Having read half the book, I like it (so far) enormously, but my point is that the book is even more interesting because it's in a place I live and know. I'm going to posit the proposition—because I'm such an average common person—that most people feel this way. A book holds an extra interest when it's about a place we know.
Why is that? Our first response is "duh" because it seems obvious, but I'd say, rather, that while the fact of being interesting is obvious, the reason is not so clear. Because I am the master of this blog and it will do what I tell it, it proceeds with several possible explanations for this phenomenon.
1) When we read about places we know, we can see ourselves there, can actually picture ourselves doing things in those places, either by imagination or by memory. Thus we perceive a locale that we connect with as somewhat representing us, and we like to read about ourselves (unless of course we discover our arrest record on the internet, when we do not like to read about ourselves—or I don't know about you, but I hate that).
2) We take an interest in reading about topics we know about. The topic may be an abstraction such as "why does love suck so damn often?" (I'm just saying), or it may be horses or Turkish culture. In a different sense, the topic we know about may be geographic, as a place we know. And how much better if the book took place on my very street?
3) The literary presentation of a place we know seems to simultaneously add both profundity and magic to a place that is familiar. That isn't merely Ponce de Leon Avenue, which I often drive down. It's the place where Rory was jogging when he first met Carolyn, with all the consequences that followed. Ponce de Leon Avenue has turned into something new and greater, lifted above the real avenue.
4) [I reserved number 4 for you to fill in your own reason, because after all, we're talking about places you know.]
For my own reading, maybe it's helpful that I've lived and visited so many places. So many more books that I can say "hey, my car broke down there" or "boy, I managed to avoid being arrested there, so it's not on the internet". Ah, memories.

{inspired} craft rooms & offices
12 comments:
my musts areReplyDelete
1. color
2. storage
3. super modern furniture and accents
tis it! <3 hehe good luck! love the colorful one you posted!!!
Jenn @ Peas & Crayons
I love so many of those office pics!ReplyDelete
For me, my dream office would:
1. NOT also be a guest room.
2. Be a little girlier than the rest of the house.
3. Have a separate table for sewing, crafts, sketching, etc., aside from my "real work" desk.
4. Have lots of pretty storage, because I'm not a big fan of seeing all of my stuff, even if it's beautiful. I want it hidden!
But in reality, I get to settle with:
1. A little corner in the guest room/shared office for my desk, with not nearly enough surface area.
2. A bunch of Elfa shelves which are a god-send.
3. The company of my dogs and lovely husband, who brighten up any room.
Our library is also a craft storage, miscellaneous storage and Cooper's room. Which is why I haven't even started thinking about what I'm going to do with it.ReplyDelete

Hmm...I'm super grateful to have my own sewing studio. If I were being picky, I'd wish it were a bit bigger for the sake of having an even larger fabric cutting station, and would wish for more empty walls to create storage on. But I'm going to just remain thankful for the space I DO have for now. :)ReplyDelete
Oops...that was me, didn't mean to post anonymously.ReplyDelete
I'm currently trying to help my mom turn my old bedroom into a "her office/dads drum storage/work out" room. Talk about a room having lots of different purposes!ReplyDelete
But for your room, I love Premier Prints fabrics for inspiration! They have such fun, bold designs. You could pick out a great fabric for your curtains for go from there! And I know some people hate IKEA, but I'm a huge fan of their prices and great office furniture. You could get a large simple desk, or even put two together for your large work table. And I love their inspiration rooms online! (And IKEA has pretty affordable clothing storage options that would fit in well with office furniture.)
I'm sure whatever you come up with will be just beautiful! I love your taste and can't wait to see what you do in there!
I was just adding this type of project to my to do list. My must haves are organization, organization, and organization!! Although I do not have a room but rather a spare closet that I use to house all my stuff. I agree that the color pallette in the Martha Stewart room is amazing!! Can't wait to see how you work your magic :)ReplyDelete
Ooooh I love the mobile (or sparkley chandelier thingy?) in that first room - how pretty!!! Can't wait to see what you do!ReplyDelete
Oh wow! Those offices are just to die for!ReplyDelete
I'm curious to see what you do because I can't seem to make a space work for me that is a craft/sewing/office space. It seems like some things need to be done outside, some in the garage, some on the kitchen table, and some at a desk. And when an overnight guest comes, everything has to disappear into a closet that's already full of supplies. I need a whole warehouse!ReplyDelete
I love the L shaped desk against the wall in the first photo. Like you said, it really makes the best use of the space.ReplyDelete
I just finished & blogged about my little corner I made into my workspace. So happy to have access to all my stuff without hiding in boxes in the closet. What a fun process you are in! Enjoy every minute of getting it just the way you'll love. I'm from BYW class, btw. :)ReplyDelete

Win one of 15 passes!
So there is this little thing called PAX Australia taking place in Melbourne on Nov. 4 - 6, 2016. Now there also was this awesome cat who worked here named Kyle. Add these two things together and what do you get? I don't know, I suck at math. BUT MOTHER FREAKIN' KYLE IS HOOKING UP 15 PASSES FOR PAX AUSTRALIA BABY! All hail the Kyle (seriously miss your posts man). Now unless you plan on being in Australia/NZ during this time, it goes without saying that this one is for those down under. Do not bother entering and possibly wasting a slot, unless you are there already (or will be there).
Speaking of entering, how do you do so? Simply post a pic of the weirdest Australian creature you can think of (see that rooting, jelly-like frog monster above), and tell us some fun facts about it (that's a purple burrowing frog, and it's from India. Didn't want to snag a possible entry from y'all). Contest ends 10/9/16 @ 11:59 ACST. Good luck and don't forget to pack your budgie smugglers!

Cigar vixen has been doing a segment where she talks about her favorite cigars of each week. I'm assuming she smokes off camera as often if not more then she smokes on camera, therefore I think it's safe to say that you can trust her taste buds! Occasionally I take a look at her videos and just make connections between the cigars she mentions with cigars other people mention and kind of throw together a list of cigars I have to try. This video caught my attention because in both this video and in the podcast by @BovedaRob, they all mention Southern Draw, and this name has been ringing through the cigar world more and more it seems. So with that being said, I think its a sign that some of you guy and I should definitely get cracking and pick up ourselves a Southern Draw Cigar, whether it be the ever favored Quickdraw, or the Cedrus mentioned in this video!

Box score
FORT PIERCE, Fla. – The University of Scranton baseball team fell behind early and could not mount a rally in a 12-6 loss to Hood College on Sunday afternoon during the team's spring break trip.
Hood (10-0) scored three runs in the second inning and four more in the top of the third for a 7-1 lead. Scranton (2-2) fought back with three in the bottom of the third to cut the deficit to 7-4, but the Blazers took command with a four-run sixth inning.
The Royals were led by freshman left fielder Connor Harding (Vestal, N.Y./Vestal Central), who singled twice, drove in three and scored a run. Senior second baseman Patrick Mergel (Bethlehem, Pa./Bethlehem Catholic) doubled twice, drove in a run and scored a run.
Senior designated hitter Seth Bower (Newtown Square, Pa./Marple Newtown) and sophomore second baseman Kevin Haag (Ossining, N.Y./Ossining/Bridgton Academy) both singled twice and scored a run. Senior center fielder Tommy Trotter (Cranford, N.J./Cranford) singled and drove in two, and junior third baseman Ian McIntosh (Newtown, Pa./La Salle College H.S.) tripled and scored a run.
On the hill, freshman righty Matthew Yard (Wall Township, N.J./Wall) had a solid collegiate debut, allowing one run on three hits and two walks while striking out one over the final three innings.
The Royals are back in action on Monday when they face Messiah at 10 a.m. in Fort Pierce, Fla.

Half Day (3-4 hours) £195 for 2 persons including Lunch and a Glass of wine.
(suitable for complete novices and the more experienced home baker)
I can run this for up to 2 persons, so the total is £195 whether it is 1 or 2 people. This includes lots of samples to take home.
Included in the course is our very popular lunch where you create your own individual hand made Artisan Gluten Free Pizza. Make your dough, add your toppings from a range of fresh produce, top with mozzarella, sprinkle with olive, chilli or avocado oil and bake, served with salads served with a glass of wine. We can also provide vegetarian options by prior arrangement.
This workshop is perfect for anyone who's gluten-intolerant and keen to learn more about the process of Gluten Free bread making. We must stress that this course does take place in a kitchen running other bread courses, so trace amounts of gluten-containing flour may be present. That said, we'll give you the knowledge and recipes required to bake at home in an environment you can be certain is gluten-free.
Many cooks of all levels believe that successful bread making is difficult, time consuming and sometimes scientific...not necessarily true!
I am a classically trained chef who worked in many top class hotels during my early career and will be happy to share my knowledge taking the mystique out of cooking showing you some shortcuts and 'tricks of the trade'.
If you've ever wished you could make your own bread, this is a fun, hands on experience focusing on practical skills covering mixing, proofing, shaping and of course....baking!
I will guide you through this relaxed, practical half day, which is dedicated to learning every stage of the Gluten Free baking process, the easy way.
No prior baking experience is necessary; just enthusiasm and a desire to make real bread! I will cut through all the theory and just show you an easy and fun way to make some classic breads for you to take home, all free of gluten-containing ingredients, including;
Soft Sandwich Loaf
Seeded Rolls
English Crumpets
Almond and Pecan Biscuits
We run this course on weekdays and weekends, mornings and afternoons. Please email or call us to find a suitable date.

Diabetes Treatment
Get to Know Sliding Scale Insulin BetterYour doctor may prescribe insulin on a sliding scale basis to normalize your blood sugar levels. In simpler terms, your dose or doses of insulin are determined on the basis of your blood sugar results. Sliding scale is broadly defined as a set of instructions meant to adjust the dose of insulin in accordance with the results of your blood glucose levels, activity level and meals.
Here is an example to help you understand the things better. For example, you may be asked to take regular insulin as per the following scale:
* A units- if blood sugar is less than 180
* B units- if blood sugar is 181-240
* C units- if blood sugar is 241-320
* AB units if blood sugar is 321-400
* BC units if blood sugar is greater than 401
You would generally be suggested to take insulin almost half an hour before a meal. Go as per the suggestion of your doctor so that you do not commit any mistake.
Now, let's take a look at how this sliding scale works. For example, it's half an hour before your dinner time and you test your blood sugar levels. It comes out to be 200. What you need to do is just look at the ranges provided in the above scale and mark a dosage for yourself. In case of the given scale, it would be B units.
Suppose if it is lunch time and your blood sugar levels are 110. How do you determine the amount of insulin that you must take? Well, the answer is not that simple. Different test times make a difference and they are to be handled in different ways. What you will have to do is keep a correct and detailed record of the test timings, test results and the amount of insulin taken.
This record would help your doctor fine tune or improve your sliding scale as per your body's requirement. The principle of sliding scale might sound confusing to you at the first instance. If you are confused, your doctor is the best man to help you. Make sure that you carry all your records along when you go for appointments.

When we think of cosmetic surgery, we think of older women and celebrities trying to hold onto what youth they have left or in hopes of remaining relevant just a tad bit longer. What we don't think about is getting these cosmetic alterations at the dentist. But it's true – there are plenty of reasons that your dental professional is well versed at Botox and other facial fillers.
No longer are you forced to visit a cosmetic surgeon to rectify the facial issues you may see, but you now have a reason to keep your dental checkups as well. Two beauty treatments in one! Botox is the most effective remedy to diminish wrinkles from the forehead, around the eyes, and around the mouth. And Dr. Lieberman is pleased to offer Botox to smooth out forehead wrinkles, frown lines, and crow's feet.
For those that are unaware, this is how it works: Botox is simple because it is injected into muscles to reduce muscle activity, that allow for a more youthful and natural glow. Patients are also raving about facial fillers because they offer the same benefits of a face lift. It's an instant gratification but without the surgical procedure.
Dr. Lieberman agrees that Botox and facial fillers are the best options for facial rejuvenation and the procedures are completely safe so there is no need to fear. After all, this is your dental professional. They know how to look after you. So, if you are looking for a quick and easy alternative to surgery and want to restore your youthfulness, contact Dr. Lieberman about Botox and facial fillers today.
If you're interested in learning more about Botox and facial fillers, contact Dr. Larry Lieberman, DDS at 727-785-8017 to schedule a consultation today. Or visit www.dentist-lieberman.com for additional information.
Dr. Larry Lieberman proudly accepts patients from Palm Harbor and all surrounding areas.

There were times when I wasn't needed to take images of promotions, awards and decorations.
This allowed me to explore other story possibilities in and around the Hue/Phu Bie area other than just my unit and the 101st.
I was fascinated by all kinds of flying machines flown during the war.
There was one that was so quiet that when it flew without its anti colision lights on you wouldn't even know it was there. Even with the anti collision lights on, you couldn't hear it save the movement of air as it flew overhead.
Anyway, since I had all day to kill, I decided to go over to the Phu Bie airport and see if I couldn't take some images of the Air Force aircraft stationed there.
After taking a few images, I noticed a military version of a Cessna Sky Master. The Sky Master has two engines. One in the front and one in the rear. Because of this, you could be qualified as having a single engine FAA certification and fily it. The following is the O-2's specfications.
Manufacturer: Cessna
Base model: O-2
Designation: O-2
Version: A
Nickname: Skymaster
Designation System: U.S. Tri-Service
Designation Period: 1962-Present
Basic role: Observation
Length: 29' 9" 9.0 m
Height: 9' 2" 2.7 m
Wingspan: 38' 2" 11.6 m
Wingarea: 202.5 sq ft 18.8 sq m
Empty Weight: 2,705 lb 1,226 kg
Gross Weight: 4,630 lb 2,099 kg
No. of Engines: 2
Powerplant: Continental IO-360
Horsepower (each): 210
Range: 780 miles 1,256 km
Cruise Speed: 196 mph 315 km/h 170 kt
Max Speed: 206 mph 331 km/h 178 kt
Ceiling: 19,300 ft
Okay, it wasn't exactly an F-4 Phanton, but it would do .
Providing, of course, I could convince the pilot that this wasn't just a joy ride but a photo-feature in the making. Carrying bag with a nomex flight suit and gloves along with a Pentax made it much easier to convince the pilot that what I was wanting to do was the real thing and prove beneficial.
He asked me how close I had ever been to the DMZ and I told him up to Quang Tri. He laughed, "We're going to get a lot closer than that."
"The closer the better, Sir."
"You should be able to take a picture of that 30 by 50 foot flag at the border."
"I've never seen that photographed before, Sir,"
He laughed, "You're going to see more than just a flag, I primise you that."
So, I pulled over my regular clothes my nomex flight suit, took off my helmet amd replaced it with the flight helmet.
"You are still going to have to wear a flac jacket. Know how to fly?"
My heart reaced, I had always wanted to fly a twin engine. Most of my stick time was in a single engine airplace.
"Yes Sir. I have 40 hours flying time and 12 hours worth of training."
"Good to know."
Within minutes, the pilot was yelling "Clear" and the heafty baratone of the Continental engines roared into life. The pilot went through his checklist, made sure all the flight controls worked and got permission to take off.
Takeoff was smoothe as glass. We gained altitude and headed north along the shoreline. My calcuations on the flight time put us at 20 minutes away from the DMZ. We past by Hue almost instantly, then we arrived parallel to Qunag Tri in less than 15 minutes. Even when we flew low terrain flying - NAP Of The Earth -- it only took us 3 minutes to go the 11 of the 13 miles between Quang Tre and the DMZ.
I could see off the shoreline near the DMZ a Destroyer pumping in 5 inch shells into areas just below the DMZ.
"I'm not going to get any closer than this, so get your cdamera out and start shooting."
Which is exactly what I did. I only had one shot at getting that image of the 30x50 foot red flag with a gold star in the center.
Below the flag pole were the remains of at least three helicopter used by pilots who tried to make that flag theirs. Didn't quite work out for them.
Coming back, I took more pictures of the pilot and our trip back to Phu Bie. And 30 minutes later, we landed back at Phu Bie.
About a week later, the slides came back. Sure enough, there was that 30x50 foot flag. Clear and sharp. After showing my images proudly to everyone at headquarters, I put those slides into slide protectors and left them in my desk drawer.
Two days later, I opened the locked drawer and found the image of the flag missing.
I'm really not sure who got that image. My belief was our S-2 but it may as very well been our CSM. Whoever got it certainly wasn't going to let me know they did in this lifetime.
Luckily for me, I have a very good memory.

Based on the Chevrolet Camaro Convertible, the HPE600 has a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine that develops 602 hp (449 kW / 610 PS) and 605 lb-ft (819 Nm) of torque.
Hennessey Performance has unveiled a new tuning package for the Chevrolet Camaro Convertible.
Dubbed the HPE600, the car features a 6.2-liter V8 that has been equipped with a TVS2300 supercharger, high-flow fuel injectors, a cold air induction system, a recalibrated ECU, and a sport exhaust system. Thanks to these tweaks, the engine produces 602 hp (449 kW / 610 PS) and 605 lb-ft (819 Nm) of torque. This enables the convertible to accelerate from 0-60 mph in 3.9 seconds and run the quarter mile in 12.0 seconds at 118 mph (190 km/h).
On the styling front, the model is virtually identical to the Camaro SS but the cabin boasts an individually numbered plaque, special floor mats, and embroidered headrests.
The HPE600 package is priced from $15,995 (€11,470) but customers can add a variety of options including a carbon fiber body kit, an adjustable KW coilover suspension, and 20-inch alloy wheels with Michelin Pilot Super Sport or Pirelli P-Zero tires.

I've just bought a house and I've got to pay a yearly service charge. What gives?
A yearly service charge will usually relate to the maintenance of common areas. If you have bought a house in a development, it may have common grass/green areas. An apartment will have common areas such as a car park, lifts, hallways etc. These common areas are used by everyone and must be kept clean and maintained for the benefit of all residents in the development.
But I don't even use that patch of grass in front of Number 17.
It doesn't matter. If the covenants are in your deeds, the management company will make sure that everyone pays a proportional amount to cover the maintenance, insurance, and cleaning of the common areas. You may also be expected to pay a portion of the electricity, water etc.
A what company now?
Management company. Unless there is a contractual relationship with a third-party, such as Greenbelt Group Limited, there will most likely be a management company.
[At least, you should hope there is a management company. Sometimes things go awry leading to issues with the ownership of the common areas.]
You will own a share of the management company, along with everyone else in the development/apartment. Wasn't this explained to you when you signed the contract?
A management company is set up by the developer and once the final house/apartment has been sold ownership of the common areas are transferred to the company. If the company has been set up correctly each purchaser of a house/apartment will own one share in the management company. You are responsible for the yearly service charges which are calculated on a pro-rata basis to cover expenditures anticipated by the company. As a share holder you will have voting rights on how the money is spent but some things (general maintenance, cleaning etc) must to done to keep the common areas to a minimum standard. Not happy with the current state of affairs? Management company paying too much for bin collection services? Think the accountant is bilking the management company? Turn up at the AGM and create a stink about it.
Wait I'm going to be forced to participate now?
Not necessarily but if you want to change the way things are done then you must attend the AGM. Where things progress from there will be mandated by the company's articles of association and memorandum.
Great. I'm going to propose we concrete over the grass in the development and get rid of the expense.
Not so fast. Your title deeds, to which the management company is a party, probably covenant that the green common areas are necessary for planning compliance and must be maintained. There are likely covenants requiring the management company to maintain these areas and recover the costs from all the shareholders. You sure this wasn't brought up when you signed the contract?
More of these horrible covenant things. Bleugh.
Ah. So you were paying attention to your solicitor, at least part of the time. Yes, more covenants, but the idea behind them is to make sure specific regulations are complied with. Covenants also ensure a measure of fairness between all shareholders.
The covenants allow each resident in the apartment /development recourse if someone isn't maintaining their own property or isn't paying their share of the management company service charge. You individually or the management company can even take a non-payer/non-complier to court or wait until the unscrupulous party tries to sell the property and create problems for the non-payer at this later stage.
You said about turning up and voting at the AGM. What if I just don't bother and let someone else worry about it?
Well, that is your right. All that's needed to form a quorum at the AGM is two shareholders. It's in your interest to turn up to since these two shareholders can make whatever decisions are in their best interests, then pass them in the name of the management company. Didn't you wonder why the guy in apartment 2's brother was taking out the communal bins for an extortionate amount?
I didn't think about it, to be honest.
Many people don't and that's often where problems arise.
Management companies require a small commitment of time and effort on the part of the shareholders to run the company. When run correctly management companies allow multiple households to manage common areas in as frictionless a way as possible. It is therefore imperative that a purchaser thinks about the long-term implications of owning a property which has the benefit of common areas, these areas being maintained by a management company.
Come to think about it I think my management company may be bankrupt…
Oh boy…

[A] COCAINE dealer caught with a £10,300 stash at his Maryport home has been jailed for almost five years.
Police who executed a warrant at Paul Gregory Barcock's address on November 3 found scores of bags containing class A drug deals in the bedroom and kitchen.
Officers also located weighing scales, a "snorting pipe" and almost £600 cash. Carlisle Crown Court heard 56-year-old Barcock commented to officers who seized his illegal haul that he should "pack a bag ready for prison".
He initially denied selling drugs, but later pleaded guilty to possessing cocaine with intent to supply. The court heard he had admitted dealing the substance to people he knew, and had a £180-a-day habit himself.
Having been remanded in custody, Barcock, of Wood Street, Maryport, was now seeking to change his ways and was trying to steer others away from drugs through a peer mentoring scheme.
Recorder Julie Clemitson, who heard Barcock had a previous cocaine supply crime on his record, imposed a four-and-a-half-year prison sentence.
