Child Custody Dropoffs: Coming Halfway When Negotiating Meeting Points
One of the most common disagreements when parents share child custody, but live in separate households, is when and where to drop-off the kids. At first glance, it seems simple: just pick a halfway point between where the parents live. However, there are often logistical and emotional issues that make drop off times and locations more difficult.
Choosing the Best Location
Ideally, the best drop off and pick up zones will be safe locations where the child (ren) can safely leave one parent's side and stay with the other parent. Many police stations offer parking spots where parents can transfer children in front of a security camera. Other good locations would be highly public and visible areas, such as a local Starbucks. The most common pickup times are afterschool. The custodial parent can pick up the child (ren) after school without seeing the other parent. Parks are often chosen because of their public accessibility and wide open spaces, but ideally the parents should pick a location where other people can intervene or report if a situation arises.
Vehicle Issues
Sometimes, one parent doesn't have access to a car. Or the parent doesn't have a license. If transportation is an issue, the parties have a few options. If public transportation is accessible, the exchange point can be at a train or bus station. Bonus points if the station is protected by security guards. Alternatively, the parents could drop off at the other parents home. This is not always an option though; one parent might have been abusive towards the other or because it would be cost prohibitive for one parent to constantly be driving to the other's residence.
Of the two, the cost prohibition would be the easiest to overcome. The other parent can pay additional child support to make up for the price of gas. Spousal or partner abuse is a bigger problem, but neither parent has to speak or interact with each other when the child(ren) leaves the car.
One last issue: if the children are young, each parent should purchase a child seat, booster or restraint for their vehicle. Even if neither parent thinks it's necessary, a judge will likely bring it up and inquire about it. Purchasing that car seat can save your child's life and save you a lot of grief from the court.
Tardiness or Abstinence
Another recurring issue might be if a parent is late or doesn't show up at all. If the pick-up parent is late or absent, this would place a bigger strain on the custodial parent as it would change the custodial parent's schedule or plans. However, it is a bigger issue if the custodial parent is late or absent.
First, always keep a calendar of such incidents. Mark down which days the other parent is late and for how long, and/or which days the other parent fails to show up. Second, if a parent fails to appear, try to call or text the parent. If the parent is excessively late (more than half an hour), you should also call or text the other parent letting them know you are leaving. You should always make an effort to communicate with the other parent before taking the child (ren) elsewhere. If the other parent is the custodial parent, you should contact the other parent immediately about where the parent and the child(ren) are. If there is no response, contact the police immediately; this situation is parental kidnapping.
Air Travel
In some cases, one of the parents moves out of state. If the children are young, be prepared to accompany them. As they become older, the parents and/or the children might wish to travel alone. Maturity will obviously be a big factor in whether that's a good idea, but courts will give more weight to a child's wishes as they grow older.
The elephant on the plane with air travel is money. Flying will be more expensive than driving around and there's no way around it. The parents can agree to split the costs of flying, alternate paying for tickets, or have the price of tickets included in one parent's child support or back pay.

With a new home in an old building in the heart of Durban's CBD, the Voices of Women Museum began a next phase of its existence as a small, niche museum featuring the narratives and artworks of ordinary women (and a few men!). Situated in a rather masculine side street with panel beaters, car upholsterers and dealerships, the first exhibition and installation of the Museum meant that 3 women, 3 men and assistance from occasional visitors, began to tell this story - a collective space of ordinary women who quietly tell their story through written text in their own language/s and embroidered interpretation. This formed an abridged version of the travelling exhibition series, Conversations We Do Not Have.
Plans are in place to upgrade this exhibition and currently, two floors have been prepared for this purpose amidst flood, crumbling celings and renovations as and when there are resources, it will soon be an agreeable space to add to your repertoire of what to do when in Durban.
Find out about the Dreams, Wishes and Expectations exhibitions at Voices of Women Museum, 2018 and then at the Castle of Good Hope, 2019 where we attempted to return to the "scene of the crime", here: https://creativefeel.co.za/2017/11/dreams-wishes-and-expectations/ and https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=gYTELJyHYRn

5 delicious typical Italian dishes and where to eat them in Milan
From the morning to the evening, Milan offers multiple choices able to satisfy every foodie. If in the midst of so much choice it is difficult to choose, follow our advice!
Discover the 5 typical Italian dishes that have made the history of Italian culture and where you can taste them in some of the best restaurants in Milan.
Keep reading and we'll make you discover the 5 typical Italian dishes that you absolutely must taste in Italy. We invite you to try both tradition and innovation with a selection of historic restaurants in Milan and modern venues.
Top best places where to eat traditional dishes in Milan
Ready to get hungry? Here it comes a full menu.
1. Sweet start
"Il buongiorno si vede dal mattino,-A good beginning makes a good ending- so start your Italian Grand Tour with sweet Italian breakfast. The basic requires: cappuccino and a brioche (also known as "cornetto" in southern Italy). Or go simple with an espresso. Just remember the golden rule: order cappuccino whenever you fancy — but NEVER with one of our typical Italian dishes.
Where to eat in Milano:
Pavé, Via Felice Casati, 27
Marchesi, via Montenapoleone, 9.
2. Tradition calls
Sure, international cuisine flourishes in Milan, but traditional milanese cooking must be tried. Step into an old school trattoria to taste typical Italian dishes cooked comeunavolta- like they used to.
The typical Italian dishes of the Milanese tradition vary between luxurious tastes and the humblest dishes. From saffron for risotto and veal meat for cotoletta to the ubiquitous polenta, minestrone, a thick vegetable soup and Cassouela, a pork and Savoy cabbage stew.
Where to eat in Milano:
Antica Trattoria della Pesa, Viale Pasubio, 10
Ratana, Via Gaetano de Castillia, 28
Manna Milano, Piazzale Governo Provvisorio, 6
3. The queen
There are other things to try, but you can't help to eat pizza while in Milan. Invented in Naples, in 2017 was proclaimed heritage of humanity and it is one of the most loved typical Italian dishes in the world.
Milan has its fair share of outstanding pizzerias, so when in doubt: choose pizza!
Where to eat in Milano:
Gino Sorbillo, Lievito Madre al Duomo – Largo Corsia dei Servi, 11
Piccola Ischia – Via Giovanni Battista Morgagni, 7
4. it's Gelato 'o clock
It's always time for Gelato, even better on a sunny day. Grab a cup or a cone and take a stroll along the Park in Porta Venezia or Navigli (the canals).
It is one of the most versatile typical Italian dishes: now even gluten free, for vegans and wheat, lactose intolerant.
Where to eat in Milano:
Viel – Corso Buenos Aires, 15
Gelateria della Musica – Via Giovanni Enrico Pestalozzi, 4
10. L'aperitivo
The aperitif, or happy hour, is Milan's specialty. Here the concept of aperitivo hour took off in the 1920s and the bitter spirit Campari, the soul of many aperitivo's drink, was born.
Between the hours of 6pm and 8pm the city is crawling with places to grab a cocktail and a bite to eat. Usually, you'll pay for a drink and free food follows, in the form of a buffet or small dishes.
Where to eat:
Fonderie Milanesi – Via Giovenale, 7
N'Ombra de Vin – Via San Marco, 2
Buon appetito!

LHA cuts to split London
13 January 2011
Government cuts to Local Housing Allowance (LHA) will increase the segregation of rich and poor areas in London, our research confirms.
The latest report commissioned by Shelter and carried out independently by the University of Cambridge shows that the neighbourhoods remaining affordable for LHA claimants by 2016 will be in clusters of four distinct, separate blocks outside inner London.
You can see the projected changes on our map of London.
These areas already have high rates of multiple deprivation and unemployment - so the reforms are likely to increase the segregation of poor and better-off households within London.
The research was featured on BBC London News on Wed 12 January and builds on our campaign revealing the the impact of housing benefit cuts across the UK.
While much of the media attention on these cuts has focused on the caps to Local Housing Allowance rates, the study finds that the change to using the bottom 30% of rents to set rates is likely to have the greater impact on the number of neighbourhoods that remain affordable.

Often the human input in the forecast process is not based on facts but on pure gut feelings. In fact our finding shows 50-75% of all adjustments to the quantitative forecast are in the wrong direction. The wrong adjustment hurt the supply chain and the financial performance. The finding is supported by research[1].
In this context it is important to measure the adjustments and extract the learnings. sophub measures the adjustments and by alerts, dashboards and meetings change the behaviour of people to be fact oriented.
In fact sophub automatically adjust the input until behaviour is changed.
Traditional forecast software do not have this feature and companies hereby lose 10%-25% improvements.
You typically see a forecast process to be based on a touch-everything approach. At sophub we turn it around and say hands-off the trivial many and fact based input on the vital few.
It means sophub analyze the port folio and find items where people normally have provided good input on the high volume items. sophub encourage people to continue add input on the vital few, and alert them when non-value adjustments.
The trivial many/vital few concept not only saves time for people but also improve the final forecast significantly.

Stress Reduction
In a world of constant go-go-go, we can all use a little stress reduction in our lives. When life gets over whelming, whether it be family, work, personal, environmental, or a mix of all four, sometimes all we can do it throw our hands up in the air and say, "That's it, I'm done."
Now this is not very conducive to life, since we cannot just take breaks from living. But what we can do is find our boundaries and hold them. A lot of stress that we feel is usually not having a direction. When we don't actually know what we want we say yes to things we don't want to do, we procrastinate, we give in to the resistance. Having a solid stress reduction plan is more than just breathing techniques, it is understand what causes us stress and the even deeper root of why. Let's walk through this maze together and make sure you come out the other side.
Frequently Asked Questions
About the Session
What is included in stress reduction sessions?
These sessions vary from person to person. Some people need to take a step back, vent, then learn healthy boundaries. While others will simply need to understand what their goals are. Sessions may include things like:
breathing and tapping techniques
clairvoyant readings
goal setting and implementation
basic understanding of how their mindset is either helping or harming
How long are these sessions?
While an initial session may take longer, most sessions will run an hour.
How are these sessions different than other stress relieving techniques?
Sessions will encompass much more than talking to someone about your problems or finding advice from friends or the internet. Instead we will tailor a program just for your needs. We will be mindful to include techniques for you to use in all different types of situations. This is our way to make sure that you can keep stress out of your life!
Is stress reduction right for me?
If you are tired of the stress and want to make it a point to find calm in your day then yes, absolutely! We will work within your comfort level and make sure to help you grow and develop into the cool and calm person you have always wanted to be.

"Being a fuel efficient driver is easy.I'm not an expert, just an ordinary, everyday driver, but through the Shell FuelSave driving challenges, I learned that making a few simple changes to my driving habits and choosing the right fuel make a difference in making your fuel last longer,"said celebrity host and published author Bianca Gonzalez who, after completing several driving challenges last year, is fast-becoming a veteran when it comes to fuel efficiency.
Gonzalez first took on the call of Pilipinas Shell to be a fuel efficient motorist during the Shell FuelSave Celebrity Driving Challenge in January 2014 where shedrove from Batangas and through the busy streets of Manila to learn about fuel efficiency from some university students who represented the countryin the first ever Shell Eco-marathon Asia to be held in the Philippines. Gonzalez was crowned Shell FuelSave Celebrity Driver of the Year,besting celebrities from Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, at the final leg of the Celebrity Driving Challenge held on the opening day of Shell Eco-marathon 2014.
Gonzalez went behind the wheel again in October to challenge everyday Filipino motorists including moms, professional drivers, and media representatives for the Shell FuelSave Good Choice Driving Challenge. The Driving Challenge tested their skills in making good choices on the road to help make their fuel last longer where Gonzalez walked away with a First Runner-up title under her belt.
It seems that nothing could stop Gonzalez in defending her crown as she teams up once again with Pilipinas Shell to take on a different kind of challenge – discovering the extraordinary lengths Filipino motorists go through to save on fuel, and putting them to the test. With Shell Eco-marathon 2015 coming up, Gonzalez enlisted the help of five students from universities forming the Philippine contingent to SEMA 2015 to join her team for the Shell FuelSave Fact or Fiction Driving Challenge on February 11.
Driving the recently-launched models of the All New Honda Jazz, All New Honda City, and All New Honda Brio Amaze, Gonzalez and the students will go head to head against select media personalities on a road trip to Clark, Pampanga.In this Driving Challenge, the participants will go through pit stopsthat will reveal interesting habits Filipino motorists practice to help them save fuel. The teams will have to distinguish between fuel efficiency fact and fiction to manage their fuel consumption, coupled with teamwork and determination, to outwit each other.
The Shell FuelSave Fact or Fiction Driving Challenge is the lead up to Shell Eco-marathon Asia 2015 as Shell brings back its largest fuel efficiency educational platform to Manila from February 26 to March 1. This will be the second year that Shell Eco-marathon Asia will be heldin the country, and Filipino student teams from the country's top universities will compete once again against fellow students from countries around Asia and the Middle East to design, build and drive the most energy efficient vehicles of tomorrow.
The Philippine teams made history last year when the De La Salle University's(DLSU) Eco-Car Team-Electric ranked second place in the UrbanConcept-Battery Electric Category with a consumption of 66.38 km/kWH, while the Technological Institute of the Philippines (TIP) also came in as a top contender when TIP Mileage bested over twelve other teams in the UrbanConcept-Diesel Category byfinishing third with a fuel consumption of 47.44 km/L.
As these students bring pride to the country once more, the Shell FuelSave Fact or Fiction Driving Challengewill serve as a platform to present them to the Filipino public.
The winner of the Shell FuelSave Fact or Fiction Driving Challenge will be determinedduring the culminating program on February 11. At the same time, Shell will also reveal highlights of the Shell FuelSave Fact or Fiction Report, a nationwidestudy conducted in December 2014 that analyses the behavior of 1,000 Filipino motoristsaged 18 to 40to understand the extraordinary lengths drivers are willing to go in order to save fuel and cut their driving costs.
"More than just being any driving competition, the Shell FuelSave Fact or Fiction Driving Challenge is our way of educating Filipino motorists how to become fuel efficient. All it takes are making a few simple changes to the way we drive and using the right fuel," explains Anthony Lawrence Yam, Pilipinas ShellVice President for Retail.
"The Driving Challenge allows our participants to experience Shell FuelSave, and the Shell FuelSave Fact or Fiction Report shows Filipino motorists what they should and shouldn't do when it comes to being more fuel efficient." Yam added.
Ultimately, Shell wants to show everyday drivers that choosing the right fuel does not have to be a tough decision, and that Shell FuelSave is a good choice that they don't have to think about.All motorists can be more fuel efficient by driving smarter and using the right fuel, such as Shell FuelSave – a regular priced fuel designed to last longer.

The Ministry of Finance has launched the Young Lawyers program, which aims to give a start to the legal profession in the ministry. The program will respond to the accelerating retirement challenge in the coming years, as retirement is the main reason for the change of ministry.
During the period from September to October, 10 auxiliary lawyers will start at the Ministry of Finance. Seven of them have been selected for the Young Lawyers program and three have been selected for other roles, such as the EU Presidency.
The Young Lawyers program aims to guide lawyers who are still in the early stages of their careers to the Council of State. The program lasts for a year, and assisting lawyers in a variety of legal issues. Assisting lawyers have been recruited for both economic and administrative policy departments, including international and law-making in the financial markets and tax departments, state budget-related tasks in the budget department, preparation of a new social reform in the .
"At the moment, the working-age population in Finland is both shrinking and graying faster than the rest of Europe. As the baby boomers retire in the coming years, the graying of the civil service will also be visible in the Ministry of Finance, "says Martti Hetemäki, Secretary of State at the Ministry of Finance .
One has to be prepared for the exit of knowledge capital by transferring knowledge through work-based learning.
"The ministry's office is changing, especially with retirement. The Master of Laws is the most common qualification title for officials of the Ministry of Finance. That is why we have a great need for skilled and motivated lawyers to become future lawyers, "Hetemäki continues.
Significant expert work in the perspective of society is of interest
The Ministry of Finance employs about 360 people. A large part of the personnel is engaged in various expert tasks. The aim is to bring together in the ministry the best expertise of people who are united by a desire to develop, the ability to create something new and the will to succeed in the challenges of the future. The high number and high level of applicants for the program show that there is an interest in meaningful expert work in society.
Attorneys Anni Salo from the Budget Department and Sara Saarela from the State Administration Development Department applied for the Young Lawyers program because they want to get more into law-making, get to know the ministry world and work in challenging but also interesting jobs.
"I feel that I can get a meaningful job at the Ministry of Finance. My personal responsibilities will be related to the multifaceted legal tasks related to the preparation of fiscal policy.

The Canadian Space Agency (CSA) (French: Agence spatiale canadienne; ASC) was established by the Canadian Space Agency Act which received Royal Assent on May 10, 1990. The president of the agency is Sylvain Laporte who reports to the Minister of Industry. He was appointed as president on February 27, 2015 effective March 9, 2015.[2]
The headquarters of the CSA is located at the John H. Chapman Space Centre in Saint-Hubert, Quebec. The agency also has offices in Ottawa, Ontario, at the David Florida Laboratory (which is mainly an engineering installation), and small liaison offices in Washington, Paris, Cape Canaveral, and Houston.
The origins of the Canadian upper atmosphere and space program may be traced back to the end of the Second World War.[3] Between 1945 and 1960, Canada undertook a number of small launcher and satellite related projects under the aegis of defence research, including the development of the Black Brant rocket as well as series of advanced studies examining both orbital rendezvous and re-entry.[4] In 1957, scientists and engineers at the Canadian Defence Research Telecommunications Establishment (DRTE) under the leadership of John H. Chapman embarked on a project initially known simply as S-27 or the Topside Sounder Project. This work would soon lead to the development of Canada's first satellite known as Alouette 1.
With the launch of Alouette 1 in September 1962 Canada became the third country to put an artificial satellite into space. At the time, Canada only possessed upper atmospheric launch capabilities (sounding rockets), therefore, Alouette 1 was sent aloft by the American National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) from Vandenberg AFB in California. The technical excellence of the satellite, which lasted for ten years instead of the expected one, prompted the further study of the ionosphere with the Canadian-designed, US-launched, international ISIS program. This undertaking was designated an International Milestone of Electrical Engineering by IEEE in 1993. The launch of Anik A-1 in 1972 made Canada the first country in the world to establish its own domestic geostationary communication satellite network.
These and other space related activities in the 1980s compelled the Canadian government to promulgate the Canadian Space Agency Act which established the Canadian Space Agency. The Act received royal assent on May 10, 1990 and came into force on December 14, 1990.[5]
In 1999 the CSA was moved from project based to 'A-base' funding and given a fixed annual budget of $300 Million.[1] The actual budget varies from year to year due to additional earmarks and special projects.
The mandate of the Canadian Space Agency is to promote the peaceful use and development of space, to advance the knowledge of space through science and to ensure that space science and technology provide social and economic benefits for Canadians. The Canadian Space Agency's mission statement says that the agency is committed to leading the development and application of space knowledge for the benefit of Canadians and humanity.
The CSA has been an "associated member" of the European Space Agency (Indian Space Research Organization.
Canada's collaboration with Europe in space activities predated both the European Space Agency and the Canadian Space Agency.[12] From 1968, Canada held observer status in the European Space Conference (ESC), a ministerial-level organization set up to determine future European space activities, and it continued in this limited role after ESA was created in 1975.[12] Since January 1, 1979, Canada has had the special status of a "Participating State" with the ESA,[13] paying for the privilege and also investing in working time and providing scientific instruments which are placed on ESA probes. Canada is allowed to participate in optional programs; it also has to contribute to the General Budget but not as much as associate membership would have entailed. This status was unique at the time and remains so today.
On 15 December 2010 the accord was renewed for a further 10 years, until 2020.[13] By virtue of this accord, Canada takes part in ESA deliberative bodies and decision-making and in ESA's programmes and activities. Canadian firms can bid for and receive contracts to work on programmes. The accord has a provision specifically ensuring a fair industrial return to Canada. The head of the Canadian delegation to ESA is the president of the Canadian Space Agency. As of February 2009, there are currently 30 Canadians that are employed as staff members at ESA. (Distributed over various ESA sites: 20 at ESTEC; 4 at ESOC; 4 at ESA HQ; 2 at ESRIN).
The Canadian Space Program is administered by the Canadian Space Agency. Canada has contributed technology, expertise and personnel to the world space effort, especially in collaboration with NASA and ESA.
There have been three recruiting campaigns for astronauts for the CSA. The first, in 1983, led to the selection of Roberta Bondar, Marc Garneau, Robert Thirsk, Ken Money, Bjarni Tryggvason and Steve MacLean. The second, in 1992, selected Chris Hadfield, Julie Payette, Dafydd Williams and Mike Mackay. On May 13, 2009, it was announced after the completion of a third selection process that two new astronauts, Jeremy Hansen of Ailsa Craig, Ontario, and David Saint-Jacques, of Quebec City, had been chosen.[14] As of December 2012 there have been 17 space flights by Canadians.
In addition to its astronauts, some of the most notable Canadian technological contributions to space exploration include the Canadarm on the Space Shuttle, as well as the Canadarm2 and the rest of the Mobile Servicing System on the International Space Station. The Canadarm and Canadarm2 employ the Advanced Space Vision System which allows more efficient use of the robotic arms. Another Canadian technology of note is the Orbiter Boom Sensor System, which is an extension of the Canadarm used to inspect the Space Shuttle's thermal Protection System for damage while in orbit.
As of 2009 funding was C$350 million per year. Revenues for the 2009–2010 FY stood at C$328 million, and for 2013-2014, C$488 million.
Additionally, there are some commercial satellites launched by the telecommunications company Telesat Canada. These are the 13 Anik satellites (3 of which are still in service), the 3 Nimiq satellites (all currently used by Bell TV), and a satellite called M-Sat 1 launched on April 20, 1996, at 22h36 UTC. Further, technology and research satellites have been developed by the University of Toronto, including the CanX series.
Nine Canadians have participated in 17 manned mission in total: 14 NASA Space Shuttle missions and 3 Roscosmos Soyuz missions:
On December 19, 2012, Canadian Astronaut Chris Hadfield launched aboard a Soyuz spacecraft to reach the International Space Station where he worked for six months as part of the crew of the ISS Expedition 34 and Expedition 35. During the second half of his mission Hadfield became the first Canadian Commander of the ISS. In addition to overseeing operations as Commander, he carried out scientific experiments, operated Canadarm2 and performed various robotics tasks.[21] This mission marked completion of NASA's "compensation" to Canada for its contribution to the Shuttle and International Space Station programs, meaning that there were no confirmed remaining space flight opportunities for Canadian astronauts.[22] In June 2015, the Canadian government announced a renewed commitment to the International Space Station, securing flights for both of Canada's remaining active astronauts (Hansen and St-Jacques). It is anticipated that one Canadian astronaut will fly by 2019, with the other to follow by 2024.[23]
Two former Canadian astronauts never flew in space; Michael McKay resigned due to medical reasons and Ken Money resigned in 1992, eight years after his selection.
A number of foreign launch facilities have been used by the CSA to launch their payload:
With the successful launching of Radarsat-2 in December 2007 and near completion of Canada's C$1.4 billion contribution to the ISS the agency in early 2008 found itself with no major follow-on projects. This fact was highlighted by Marc Garneau, Canada's first astronaut and former head of the CSA who in the fall of 2007 called upon the Canadian government to develop and institute a space policy for Canada.
A modest step has been taken to resolve this problem. In November 2008, the Agency signed a $40 million 16-month contract with MacDonald, Dettwiler and Associates of Vancouver to begin the design of the RADARSAT Constellation (3 satellite) earth observation mission.[24] In August 2010 further funding was awarded for detailed design work scheduled for completion by 2012. Launch of the three satellites is scheduled for 2018. Also in the 2009 Federal budget, the agency was awarded funding for the preliminary design of robotic Lunar/Martian rovers.[25]
However, a number of initiatives are without funding. The CSA is the lead agency for the Polar Communication and Weather mission (PCW) which involves the planned launch of two satellites in polar orbit to provide Canadian authorities with improved weather information and communications capabilities in the high arctic.[26] Launch of the two satellites is proposed to take place in 2016. Funding for further development of the mission has yet to be approved.[27]
The Canadian Space agency has no indigenous launch system capability beyond upper atmospheric sounding rockets.[24][28] Canada relies on other countries, such as the U.S., India and Russia, to launch its spacecraft into orbit, but both the Defence Department and the space agency are looking at the option of constructing a Canadian-made launcher.[28][29]
The CSA has been researching locations in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, and Fort Churchill, Manitoba, for a possible micro satellites (150 kg) launch site for the CSA,[29] and end its reliance on foreign launch providers. However, Canadian politicians seldom change funding without having at least some idea of the expected economic, social and national defense benefits that could reasonably accrue to their constituents from the program.[24][30] According to Canadian Space Agency officials, it would take 10 to 12 years for a full-scale project to design and build a small satellite launcher.[24] There is no funding for these activities yet.[31]

The CrossFit Hyannis Athlete of the Month for June is Terry Downey. Terry is just the best, and that's why she's athlete of the month. To back up that claim- below are some of the wonderful attributes of Terry.
Terry is a 5:30am'er and always comes in with a smile on her face, ready to throw down and enjoy the workout with a smile. On many days she leaves the gym then proceeds to ride her bike to work (and you know if you ride it THERE then at the end of the day you actually have to ride it BACK home too!). She recently has been hitting 100 mile weeks on her bike through her commute. All that would be well and good, but Terry also uses her fitness and positive demeanor outside of the gym to help serve her clients as a PT and her work with various organizations. She works extensively with the Spaulding Adaptive Sports Centers helping adaptive athletes pursue sport and physical activity. She coaches sled hockey teams, is a critical member of the "Sport and Spirit" weekend put together by Spaulding Adaptive Sports, and gives her time to various other endeavors that help people enjoy the world of sport and play.
Terry is a great reminder that as much fun as CrossFit is, for most of us it is ultimately a tool that allows us to do other physical activities outside of the gym and use our fitness to help and inspire others. Sometimes people can get lost in being bummed about not hitting a PR, RX'ing a workout, etc.- but in the grande scheme of things we need to remember to be grateful to have bodies that are capable of so much and use what we have to serve others.
ALSO- Terry is an incredibly gifted photographer and has used her talent to capture some pretty epic photos of our members here at CrossFit Hyannis. Most of the photos that you see on our website (at least the good ones) can be credited to Terry. So THANK YOU Terry- for the photos, for your selflessness and spirit, and for all you do to make CrossFit Hyannis and the world a better place.

Amazon's Echo Show gets an upgrade
Tech tools: Bigger screen, better speakers and a smarthome hub make a difference
Amazon has improved its Echo Show, with a bigger screen, better speakers and a smarthome hub that lets you control your automated devices around the house. Set to go on sale in October, the new version of Amazon's smart speaker has a 10 inch HD screen and a Zigbee smart hub, all controlled by voice commands. It makes it that bit easier to follow recipes step by step in the kitchen or add compatible devices by telling Alexa to find your new light bulbs, plugs and switches. The question is, why would you need the more expensive Echo Show over the Spot? Well the screen is a lot bigger, so it's handy for Skype calling, or for viewing who is outside your front door, if you have a Ring doorbell. If you do neither of those things though, the regular Echo Plus might be a better choice.

MALIBU (California) • Film-maker Jonathan Demme was looking for an actor who could hold his own against actress Meryl Streep and also play a mean lead guitar. All the music scenes in his new film, Ricki And The Flash, would be recorded live, no overdubs, so the guy had to have some chops. The call went out. Because of Streep's involvement, just about every actor who had ever noodled around on guitar came out, along with just about every guitarist with a SAG card. Several actors - about half, by Demme's estimation - ultimately confessed they couldn't actually play. A lot of the professional guitarists couldn't act. And then Rick Springfield walked in.
Yes, that Rick Springfield. If one hears that phrase a lot, it is probably because this actor-musician has taken on so many varied and unexpected gigs since breaking out in the 1980s with hits such as Jessie's Girl and Don't Talk To Strangers.
He still records and tours. But he has also played an unsavoury version of himself on the Showtime series Californication. Perhaps his best-known role was Dr Noah Drake on General Hospital, but he recently played a very different sort of caregiver, Dr Irving Pitlor, the creepy, fake-tanned psychiatrist in HBO's True Detective.
He has even written a best-selling novel about a guy who finds God's telephone number in a stolen self-help book (Magnificent Vibration) and has penned an autobiography that made Rolling Stone's list of 25 Greatest Rock Memoirs of All Time. "I got better reviews for my novel and my autobiography than I ever got for my music," he said.
He goes downstairs, plugs in, is introduced to Meryl and suddenly the sunshine comes out.
FILM-MAKER JONATHAN DEMME on Rick Springfield's audition for Ricki And The Flash
On a recent afternoon, he was in the Malibu home he shares with his wife of 30 years, Barbara, speaking about Ricki And The Flash, which opens in the United States on Friday. Lean, wiry and tall, the actor, 65, was wearing a greyish T-shirt, black sweats and black Converse sneakers.
After offering tea - black, green or nettle - Springfield was game to talk about anything, like how much fun he had taking acid for the first time and how sad he got, "teardrops falling on the postcards" sad, the first time he left home.
There is a baby grand piano in his living room and assorted electric guitars on the walls, but no sight of the Grammy he won for Jessie's Girl, which is at his mother's house in Australia, or of the multiple gold and platinum albums he received for selling 25 million records over four decades.
"I never put them on my walls," he said. "In fact, I had them out in the shed and they got rained on, so I had to throw them all out."
In the film, Streep stars as Ricki Rendazzo, a singer who ditched her husband and kids (her daughter, Julie, is played by Streep's real-life daughter Mamie Gummer) to pursue her dreams of rock 'n' roll stardom; Springfield plays Greg, her lover and lead guitarist. The couple are two-fifths of Ricki and the Flash, the house band at the Salt Well, a San Fernando Valley bar.
When Springfield went in for that first audition, he discovered that Demme just wanted to hear how the prospective Gregs got on musically with the rest of the band. No reading, just playing. The director already had his own favourites in mind for the part and admitted he had not been a big Rick Springfield fan.
"I knew the name, but I couldn't name any of his tunes," he said.
"He goes downstairs, plugs in, is introduced to Meryl and suddenly the sunshine comes out," he continued. "They start playing and he claimed the part immediately. He had the part within a minute of them being together."
It didn't hurt that Demme, a music lover whose filmography includes the Talking Heads concert film Stop Making Sense (1984) and Neil Young: Heart Of Gold (2006), had already recruited three of the industry's most prolific session musicians to stock his rhythm section: drummer Joe Vitale, keyboardist Bernie Worrell and bassist Rick Rosas (who died after filming wrapped), veterans who have played with the Eagles; Crosby, Stills & Nash; Etta James and Parliament Funkadelic, just to name a few.
The band members had two weeks to coalesce before filming. The first song they played during their first rehearsal was American Girl, the Tom Petty classic that also opens the film.
"You know within 10, 20 minutes when you start playing with new guys whether you're gonna be great or you're gonna suck," Vitale said in a phone interview from his home in North Canton, Ohio. "Within 10 minutes, we were playing great. We got along better than a lot of bands that are real bands."
Demme said: "I was literally barred from their rehearsals by Ms Streep. I really wanted to go, but she said, 'You've gotta let us get to know each other and find each other musically before you're sitting in a chair and watching us.'"
For the role, Streep had to learn how to play rhythm guitar as if she had been playing it for four decades (she had not).
"Rick was endlessly kind and patient with me and it must have been a colossal nightmare for him to hear me make the same mistake on the same chord for like a week," she said in an e-mail interview from London. "It was almost as if Jonathan cast the band as much for their compassion as for their rock cred."
After the premiere of Ricki And The Flash, Springfield is off to his native Australia to promote the movie and try to make amends. Last year, to make the film, he cancelled a homecoming tour there, his first in three decades.
"I did tweet, I hope you all understand, but honestly, if Meryl Streep and Jonathan Demme had asked me to wash their cars, I would have cancelled for that too," he said. "And I would have brought my own bucket."

The round two of the DWITE programming contest was a success. Mr.S. himself approves:
Excellent work with the new DWITE format. The website is easy to use and the contest questions are at level appropriate for high school students. Keep up the great work and looking forward to December DWITE.
A record setting 113 high school teams have taken part in the programming contest this week. We've learned a lot from the previous round, so a lot of the issues were corrected. The most noticable improvement should have been that all of the submissions were marked and returned much faster. Dan has commented on some technical details:
There seemed to be a lot less bugs in this version of the judge and things got marked a lot faster tho we did have some server lag when every one was refreshing the page over and over at the beginning. The biggest issue of this round was a cat that manged to jump on the keyboard of the computer running the judge and crashing it for a few minutes.
That's right, we forgot to catproof the code. Ops.
Lesson learned. It should be an easy fix for the future. Right now we've got to figure out how to handle the load generated by 100 student teams constantly reloading the website in the first few minutes of the contest.
For anyone interested, DWITE 2007 Round 2's questions, test cases, and results are available online. CompSci.ca trivia fact: Dan's cat's name is Tigger.

Arctic Monkeys "Arabella" (NSFW video)
Published Mar 03, 2014Arctic Monkeys are dialling into a bit of naughtiness in the biker bar-bound video for their latest AM single, "Arabella."
The black and white clip finds the UK crew kicking out the gritty blues-rock jam inside a tiny venue full of leathered-up Harley riders. While this makes for rather grounded shots of Alex Turner dramatically sermonizing about the titular character's interstellar get-up, footage of some out-of-this-world, bare-breasted foreplay is also on display. This orgy, of course, lands the clip with the NSFW tag.
You can peep the Monkeys' sexy clip down below. As previously reported, Arctic Monkeys will be back in North America this June, with a Toronto stop booked at the Molson Amphitheatre. You can see the details over here.

For patients desiring a minimal augmentation with natural looking and feeling results, a breast augmentation with fat grafting is a good option. During the procedure, Dr. Rednam uses liposuction to remove fatty tissue from other parts of the body, such as the stomach and back. This fat is purified via a centrifuge and injected to the breasts to provide supplemental volume.
Because this procedure is minimally-invasive, and leaves only small scars from liposuction, patients recover quickly and can return to normal activity as soon as a few days. Results are immediately visible, but as the body metabolizes fat, additional fat grafting augmentation may be necessary for some patients.

Our armco barrier is incredibly simple to install. Apart from holding down bolts, there are only two types of bolts you need to use, all holes are pre-stamped and positioned so components fit together like a big meccano kit and end pieces are interchangeable.
If you are installing on a concrete base you can simply drill the concrete with standard concrete drill bits at 3.2m or 1.6m centres using posts as templates for hole positions. Wind holding down bolts into place using washers under base plates to level off posts, then bolt beams to posts and bolt the overlap on the beams using the pre-stamped holes.
If the ground is softer like turf or tarmac, you may have to use a concrete-in type post option. We can advise on how to fit in this scenario and answer any questions you may have.
Alternatively, if you want an expert to come and fit your barrier contact us directly. We have installers trained and certified to operate in all areas of the UK and can fit armco to any design you might need. Contact us for an installation price directly. We can usually attend your site at short notice if required.
Our armco installations are suitable for protecting loading bays from damage, delineating drops, preventing cladding/walls from being hit, protecting walkways and machinery from errant forklifts and for use on carparks and private roadway applications.

Oregon commercial crab fishery to open Jan. 15
The commercial Dungeness crab fishery will open on most of Oregon's coast on Jan. 15. Dungeness crab will be ready to be harvested from Cape Blanco to the Columbia River and north into Washington. While the commercial season can open as early as Dec. 1, the opening can be delayed to ensure a high quality product for consumers by allowing crabs more time to fill with meat, according to the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. click here to read the story 12:42

Taoiseach leaving the majority of Irish workers behind once again – Doherty
Sinn Féin Finance Spokesperson Pearse Doherty TD has branded tax announcements made by Taoiseach Leo Varadkar this evening as 'empty promises' that write off the majority of Irish workers.
The Donegal TD said:
"Tonight saw Leo Varadkar trot out more empty tax promises to the Irish people.
"Just 3 years ago Fine Gael made more reckless promises to the Irish people, claiming they would abolish the USC.
"But figures obtained by Sinn Féin last week confirm that this latest election gambit would cost the state a massive €2.27bn.
"This pledge is not for the majority of Irish people who work every hour in the day and get nothing in return from this government.
"Over two million citizens have incomes below €35,000 a year. For them, Leo Varadkar's empty promise of over €2bn in tax cuts to buy off his voters means more hardship and more financial distress.
"It will not protect those in society struggling from rip-off rents. It will not help those who struggle to pay some of the highest costs in the world for childcare. It will not help those on rock-bottom wages and in need of social protection.
"Leo Varadkar seems to think these people should continue struggling from month to month, not so they can be cut some slack from their rent, from their mortgage or doing right by their family, but so he can afford to splash out on the richest one fifth in society.
"If Fine Gael promise five years of tax cuts for the few, what they really mean is five more years of worry for most Irish families who are barely getting by.
"It means five more years of record high living costs. It means five more years of a broken health service. It means five more years of a severe housing shortage that has forced 10,000 Irish citizens into homelessness.
"Sinn Féin are taking a stand against the politics of empty promises, and we're standing with the vast majority of Irish citizens who this government has written off and left behind."

Steel Panther To Make Halloween A Whole Lot Sexier With Their Next Virtual Concert, "The Halloweenie Ride Livescream" Bringing Back Halloween From The Dead
Trail Of Tears Bio
Ronny Thorsen- vocals Kjetil Nordhus- vocals Runar Hansen- lead guitars Terje Heiseldal- guitars Kjell Rune Hagen- bass Frank Roald Hagen- synths Jonathan Perez- drums
TRAIL OF TEARS began as NATT in 1994, but it wasn't until 1997, when the band experienced drastic line-up changes including the replacement of Ales Vik by Helena Iren Michaelsen and drummer Vidar Uleberg by Jonathan Perez, as well as addition of a permanent keyboard player Rank Roald Hagen, twin bother of bass player Kjell Rune, which prompted a change in musical style, that the name TRAIL OF TEARS was instituted. Due to these changes, the band's musical direction evolved from the straigtforward, somewhat primitive metal to what is now TRAIL OF TEARS' signature style.
When silence cries..., a 3-track demo, was recorded in March/April 1997 at the Jailhouse Studio. Shortly thereafter, lead guitarist Michael Krumins left the band and was replaced by Runar Hansen. The demo prompted a spew of contractual offers and in early 1998, the band signed a two-album deal with Dutch label DSFA Records. The band entered Jailhouse Studio once again to record their debut, Disclosure in Red, released in November 1998. Heavy touring followed including a European tour with Tristania, The Sins of Thy Beloved, Siebenbürgen and Antichrisis. However, conflicts with female vocalist Helena Iren Michaelsen ensued both on later tours and in the studio forcing the band to bid her farewell following the completion of Profoundemonium, which was licensed to NAPALM RECORDS for distribution except in the Benelux countries. TRAIL OF TEARS welcomed Helena's replacement, Cathrine Paulsen, in May 2000.
TRAIL OF TEARS continued to stay active on the touring circuit between their song writing and recording responsibilities, having rocked festival stages across Europe: Dynamo Open Air (NL), Wacken Open Air (D), Eurorock (B), Quart Festival (N), and Metal Dayz (CH) to name a few. In the summer of 2001, the band signed a 3-album deal with NAPALM RECORDS, entering Soundsuite Studio in the mid February of the following year. Supervised by producer Terje Refsnes (Tristania, Sirenia), TRAIL OF TEARS recorded nine new tracks, as well as Faith No More's Caffeine for the limited edition version of A New Dimension of Might.
2003 became a very hectic touring year for the band, including single shows throughout Europe and their first Mexican tour. The band also joined forces with Kjetil Nordhus (Green Carnation) on a permanent basis, as Kjetil had contributed on TOT's last three recordings, while parting ways with Catherine Paulsen. The band cites a general disagreement as to the musical direction and escalating touring activity. The remaining members opted to forge forth without replacing Catherine, while taking on a slightly new approach to their music.
The result of their efforts can be heard on their fourth album, Free Fall into Fear. It was recorded in Norway`s Dub Studio in November 2004. The band also completed a very successful European tour with Therion and Tristania October/November 2004, which took the band to 14 European countries. "Free Fall into Fear" will be released on Napalm Records on 28 Feb 2005. The band is looking forward to an extensive tour in support of this latest release.

Supporters of legal marijuana say four people have been arrested after smoking marijuana on the U.S. Capitol grounds.
Monday's "smoke-in" was intended as an act of civil disobedience. Those lighting up want pot to be legalized nationwide and for the federal government not to interfere with states that already have legal marijuana.
Nikolas Schiller, a co-founder of the group D.C. Marijuana Justice, says two men and two women were arrested by U.S. Capitol police shortly after they started smoking on Monday afternoon.
Those arrested included Adam Eidinger, the group's other co-founder. Eidinger also was arrested with seven others Thursday during a pot giveaway near the Capitol.
Capitol police spokeswoman Eva Malecki says the four were charged with possession, a violation of federal law.
It wasn't clear whether they had attorneys.

The Presidency has said contrary to media reports that President Yayi Boni of Benin Republic defeated President Goodluck Jonathan to emerge as African Union Chairman at the 18th AU summit in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, the President did not contest.
In a statement by the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati, he said the report was false: 'And is only the latest in a series of sensational and fictional reporting in a bid to cast the administration of President Jonathan in bad light.'
Throwing more light on what actually happened, Abati said: 'It is not true that President Yayi Boni defeated President Goodluck Jonathan in an election; there was no contest in the first place and President Jonathan was not a candidate for the AU Chairmanship position.
'It is also not true that President John Atta Mills opposed President Jonathan at any time. Ghana and Nigeria enjoy excellent relations.
'It is true, that in the last week, some newspapers have been speculating that President Jonathan may be adopted by the ECOWAS Heads of States and Governments to be the next chairman of the African Union, since it was the turn of ECOWAS to produce the AU Chairman for 2012-2013. Mr. President was indeed approached by leaders within and outside the West African sub-region to take up the challenge of leading the AU for the next one year.
'While appreciating this kind gesture, President Jonathan resolved that he needed time to focus on domestic affairs in Nigeria, and that it would be practically difficult for him to combine the three positions of President of Nigeria, Chairman of ECOWAS and Chairman of African Union. He therefore rejected the offer.
'As it turned out, the President of the Republic of Benin had indicated interest in the position, which paved the way for his unanimous adoption by the ECOWAS Heads of State as the sub-region's candidate for the AU chair. Thus, it becomes obvious that President Jonathan rather than being defeated by President Yayi Boni of Benin actually facilitated his emergence as AU Chairman.'
