Photographs from Lincoln Center
We're excited to share with you the wonderful photographs New York photographer, dancer, DJ, and podcast host Ryan Swift took of the Mint Julep Jazz Band performing at Lincoln Center's Midsummer Night Swing! He was limited to the press area and public areas in terms of where he could take photographs and we think he did an amazing job, even with these limitations. Here are a few of our favorites below and you can see the entire set on his Flickr page.
Photos from Duck Jazz Festival
The Duck Jazz Festival is one of the best experiences we have had as a band – this community cares about jazz and puts on a thoughtful and perfectly executed event that draws jazz fans and music lovers from the outer banks of North Carolina and beyond. Thanks so much to the Town of Duck for creating such a fantastic music festival and inviting us to be a part of it!
Thanks to Alexandrea Lassiter of Dtownperspective for taking almost all of these photos and documenting our trip!
Photos from Battle Axe: Front to Back
We had such a great time last night at our Battle Axe album release party at Blue Note Grill! Here are some photos from this momentous occasion, thanks so much to everyone who came out to the show!
The Making of Battle Axe
With our new album out and not a lot of information that we're able to fit on one side of a CD sleeve, we get questions about Battle Axe logistics, so here are some behind the scenes tidbits about the conception and creation of Battle Axe, accompanied by fantastic photos from our Sunday recording session taken by our documentarian in residence, Alexandrea Thomsen (aka dtownperspective).
Conceptually, it is difficult to come up with a direction for a second album – we wanted to deliver a solid album of dance music, take some creative liberties, showcase a range of tempos, and keep everything fun. With the idea that there are many jazz albums whose cover art verges on lackluster or isn't eye-catching, we wanted to do something cool. And when I say cool, I probably mean nerdy. Would I buy this album and/or be intrigued by the title/cover art?
One of our local Triangle area dancers, Skyler Hinkel, is an avid video gamer and metal fan – death metal, pirate metal, folk metal, everything. He suggested that Mint Julep Jazz Band be a battle swing band and forge a new genre of swing music where all of our songs had something to do with battles. While the execution of a battle swing band would have been out of our reach in time for an album, the idea stuck and we decided, based on the Jimmie Lunceford tune in our book by the same name, to call the album Battle Axe and include some other conflict-oriented tunes.
With this concept in mind and prior to recording, we announced the title of the album on our Facebook wall, which garnered a great response, including one from Ryan Lemar, a swing dancer and instructor in Richmond, VA, who suggested that all of our albums should be named after weapons and rattled off a list, including a trebuchet. Our tenor player, Keenan McKenzie, who is also a whiz on the soprano sax, took this idea and ran with it, writing an original tune called "Trebuchet" that is very much in the vein of something Sidney Bechet might have scribbled down – très Bechet, even!
Keenan also wrote the original tune "The Dwindling Light by the Sea" and arranged "Say It Isn't So," "You Can't Live in Harlem," and Mussogsky's "Night on Bald Mountain" (which he initially put together for a Halloween gig in 2014). The remainder of the tunes on the album were arranged by co-bandleader and trombonist Lucian Cobb.
Going back to that cool cover art idea, once we had the Battle Axe concept, vocalist Laura Windley approached graphic designer and electronic music artist Judson Cowan (aka Tettix) about fleshing out a concept for the cover art. Judson attended East Carolina University with half of the band, and went on to do graphic design work, like designing a blimp for Conan O'Brien and print ads for the Atlanta Braves, electronic music recordings as the artist Tettix, and soundtracks for video games like Rogue Legacy. Judson was perfect for the job because of his knowledge of the nerdy, the cool, the funny, and the music. We think that his instru-weapons are the perfect visual compliment to the pun of our album title.
When we met with our recording engineer, Jason Richmond, who recorded and mastered our first album, he made two suggestions that affected the quality of the sound on the recordings and distinguished it from our first album: 1) that we record at Mitch Easter's studio, The Fidelitorium, in Kernersville because he thought the studio would be complimentary to our sound as an acoustic band and 2) that we record to analog tape, which would give our recordings that warmer tone of older recordings. At one of his jobs, Jason happened upon a closet full of unused analog tape that a university was going to throw away and gave to him, so he was excited to work with it in the recording studio and we are very pleased with the results.
We recorded Battle Axe over a weekend in April at the Fidelitorium and Alexandrea Thomsen, who did our wonderful Kickstarter video and happens to be our guitar player Ben Lassiter's wife, came out for the Sunday recording session to take photographs. At this point we had recorded most of the tracks for the album and we were doing re-takes on some songs we thought we could do better. The Fidelitorium was a great studio for us, tucked away behind the owner's home and a "guest house," which was essentially a little ranch house where the bands stay when they record there. The studio had an open lounge, dining, and kitchen area separate from the recording area and having that space to decompress and take breaks was great. The common area was also full of great artwork, oddities, knick-knacks, and interesting books. Here are some photos of the recording session for Battle Axe – enjoy!

Sesame Street Features Mint Julep Jazz Band Song!
Tune in to Sesame Street on April 18, 2013 to hear an original Mint Julep Jazz Band song in one of the non-muppet segments! We are excited to have an air date and to finally be able to make this announcement, which we've been keeping quiet about since September, when Lucian composed and we recorded the song.
How did this happen? It's all about networking (or being in the right place at the right time?) – we performed at a local wedding in August and one of the guests thought we'd be perfect for a project he was doing for Sesame Street. After a few phone calls and emails we had about a week and a half to put everything together, from Lucian composing the tune, getting everyone in the same place to record it, culling enough equipment together to have a quality recording, to lots of little logistical hurdles that occur when you are contracting out your services. Needless to say, everyone in the band was really excited to be involved in something that was going to appear on Sesame Street, and, with that motivation, we pulled it off in a very short amount of time.
If you can't tune in to the show, there may be a way to watch it online after the air date – stay tuned!
I've included a couple of photos from the recording session below.

Today I had a discussion with a friend of mine and we debated for a couple of hours about "compiler optimization".
I defended the point that sometimes, a compiler optimization might introduce bugs or at least, undesired behavior.
My friend totally disagreed, saying that "compilers are built by smart people and do smart things" and thus, can never go wrong.
He didn't convince me at all, but I have to admit I lack of real-life examples to strengthen my point.
Who is right here? If I am, do you have any real-life example where a compiler optimization produced a bug in the resulting software? If I'm mistaking, should I stop programming and learn fishing instead?

Published at Friday, January 25th, 2019 - 22:09:59 PM. Living Room. By Elyse Vogt.
Tropical Style brings in the outdoor color pallets. The lush greens and yellows of natural flora are just two of most common colors you can find in a tropical living room design idea. Choose colors that are found naturally like the color of trees, plants, flowers and fruits. Think of a tropical forest or a market full of tropical fruits to inspire your design.
Open spaces do attract clutter. The more space we have the more we try and fill it, often with things that could easily be tidied away if only some storage had been planned for them. Built-in cupboards are a solution here but if your room does not suit this style, then think carefully about some other options. Solid oak sideboards or oak cupboards work very well.

text: Last spring my family vacationed in the Raleigh, North Carolina area. Highlights of the trip included white sandy beaches, my daughter's first dip in the ocean and, of course, THE FOOD. What's not to love about sweet tea, hush puppies (fried dough) and slow-cooked, perfectly sauced meats? When it comes to barbecue in this Southern state, there's an ongoing feud over which style is best. For people that live in the western part of the state, it's ketchup-based barbecue sauce all the way. But head over to the East Coast, and suddenly it's all about the vinegar-based sauce. You can find both styles in Raleigh but our favorite restaurant serves up authentic barbecue of the vinegar variety. Recreating that vinegary-in-a-good-way flavor is ridiculously easy with a handful of pantry staples (and three pounds of pork). So for the July Wow Guide, our food editors did just that—in the slow cooker, of course. The taste takes me right back to that summer vacay. Here's how I make it my own: Swap in dark brown sugar for of light brown sugar for a little more depth of flavor. Kick up the heat with 1-2 tablespoons of Sriracha sauce stirred in at the end. (My husband approves!) Make a double batch and freeze the extras. The pork is a great recipe jump starter. Here's four delicious ways to serve it.

Christina Silk Facials Anti-Aging with true silk fibers
I find that every Christina facial has one or two aspects that are so unique and memorable, its either a technique or product from the protocol that just adds to the memorable facial experience. A recent stay a Cramim Resort and Spa, one of the newest hotels in the Isrotel Hotel group, is where you can experience a Christina Silk facial, this was my first Silk experience and it will not be my last.Christina Silk Facials Anti-Aging with true silk fibers
Christina Silk Facials Anti-Aging with true silk fibers
As I was leaving the spa the same evening on an 11 hour flight my therapist Lynn Dargie-Tavor at the spa, recommend that I experience this facial, while overlooking a stunning view from the therapy room onto the Cramim Resort & Spa vineyards, only adding to the experience. The Christina Silk facial treatment is an anti-aging treatment instantly improving wrinkles, fine lines, and skin laxity. A calculated combination of active ingredients which is always a star feature of Christina facials, the Silk treatment lifts skin and fills in wrinkles without causing irritation.
Many spa or salon treatments address wrinkles and expression lines, but leave the clients face red and irritated. The Silk treatment can be used without causing irritation on sensitive, seborric and even couperose skin. The actual gentle silk fibers and proteins that are applied to the skin before the massage, totally dissolve and sink into the skin to reinforce the natural Collagen matrix for absolutely flawless skin, this is part of the facials you just have to experience.
Christina Silk Facials Anti-Aging with true silk fibers
My facial therapist Lynn Dargie-Tavor used approximately what would be one full sheet of Silk Fiber; she broke the silk fibers into small pieces and applies them in different locations onto the skin over the Base Cream Mask. Then small drops of Silk Fiber Activator are placed onto the fibers, Lynn gently massaged the area until the fibers dissolved. It just felt wonderful you can tell when you have an experienced and well trained therapist treating your skin, Lynn is one of those therapists. After just one silk treatment, there is an 80% reduction in the appearance of fine lines; skin is so smooth and clear. These are the types of results clients want to see all over the world.Christina Silk Facials Anti-Aging with true silk fibers
The bonus for me was that these fibers also improve the skin's ability to retain hydration for younger healthier looking skin. Christina's extracted silk protein matrix also helps to retain moisture and encourage micro-circulation between cells for my up-coming 11 hour flight, just perfect.Christina Silk Facials Anti-Aging with true silk fibers at Cramim Resort & Spa
My other favorite part of Silk is the remodeling peel off mask; it's perfect for mature skin as it helps to increase elastic fibers skin which gradually helps to improve wrinkles and fine lines on the skin. The cool and calming Remodeling Mask is rich with natural antioxidants and plant enzymes. This is a form fitting mask leaves a layer of elastic fibers that remodel skin texture, providing an immediate lifting affect that is both felt and seen, a real favorite.Christina Zehavi founder of Christina – Its Just Works
Christina Silk Facials Anti-Aging with true silk fibers
For all spa facial users they totally understand that the results they see after a facial can only be maintained with home care, the Silk home care products are designed to prolong and enhance the spa/salon treatment. When used consistently, clients can see up to 35% reduction in fine lines and wrinkles within three months.
The silk anti-aging and pampering treatments, instantly improves wrinkles, fine lines, and skin laxity. Silk cocoons are infused into skin, leaving clients with tighter "lifted" feeling skin. After receiving this treatment, you will leave the spa with a smoother, younger looking skin … instantly. To experience Silk age control treatments go to the Christina web site to find your nearest global salon or spa, or book a spa treatment at Cramim Resort & Spa.

How to Calculate BMI for Children
Explore this Article Finding the Child's BMI Interpreting the Child's BMI Applying the Results Questions & Answers Related Articles References
There are 15 references cited in this article, which can be found at the bottom of the page.
The body mass index (BMI) provides an indication of whether a child is overweight or underweight, given their height, age, and biological sex. Knowing your child's BMI helps you determine what measures you should take to help the child develop a healthy and active lifestyle. Maintaining a BMI in the healthy range as a child can decrease the risk of serious health conditions in adulthood. To calculate a child's BMI, you must first measure the child's height and weight accurately. For children, the BMI is interpreted according to a growth chart that adjusts for a child's age and biological sex.[1]
Part 1
Finding the Child's BMI
1Remove shoes or bulky clothing. While a light T-shirt or shorts are fine, heavy sweaters or jeans and shoes will prevent you from accurately measuring the child's height and weight. Any hair accessories that gather the child's hair on the top of their head also interfere with the height measurement.[2]
- Bulky clothing can interfere with an accurate height measurement as well as weight. For example, if the child is wearing a hoodie they won't be able to stand straight against a wall.
- You also might want to remove braids if they add height.
- Your purpose is to get accurate measurements, not to humiliate the child or make them uncomfortable. Allow them to cover their body in a way that won't interfere with your results.
2Measure the child's height. You can get an accurate measure of the child's height at home with a flat stick, a wall, and a measuring tape. Choose a location where the child can stand straight against the wall on an uncarpeted floor.[3]
- Have the child stand straight with their head, shoulders, buttocks, and heels against the wall, looking straight ahead. The child's heels should be together, their shoulders flat. Keep in mind that depending on the child's body shape, they may not be able to touch the wall with all of those body parts.
- Get a flat stick such as a ruler and place it against the wall at a right angle. Lower it until it firmly rests on the top of the child's head.
- Make a light mark with a pencil at the spot where the bottom of your stick hits the wall. You may want to have the child duck out from under it once you have the stick in place so you can make your mark.
- Using a metal tape measure, find the child's height by measuring the distance from the floor to the mark you made.
3Weigh the child on a digital scale. To get an accurate measurement of your child's weight at home, place a digital scale on firm, even flooring such as tile or wood. Avoid scales that are spring-loaded for weighing children.[4]
- Make sure the child isn't wearing shoes, or any heavy or bulky clothing that could add weight to the result.
- Have the child stand straight up with both feet on the scale. You may want to have the child step off the scale and repeat the weighing twice more for the most accuracy, especially if the child is fidgety.
- If you weigh the child more than once, simply average the results.
4Record the child's measurements. As you measure the child, write down the results. To ensure the most accurate measurement, record the child's height to the nearest one-eighth of an inch (or 0.1 centimeter), and record the child's weight to the nearest decimal tenth.[5]
- Take measurements in the system with which you are most comfortable. Although BMI is measured using the metric system, most calculators will convert measurements recorded in pounds and inches.
5Enter the child's information into a BMI calculator. While you can calculate the child's BMI manually, it typically is much easier to find a BMI calculator online. All you have to do is provide the child's age, biological sex, and measurements.[6]
- You can find a reliable children's BMI calculator on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website here: https://nccd.cdc.gov/dnpabmi/Calculator.aspx. Many state government and health insurance agencies also have reliable calculators.
- Ideally, you want to use a calculator on the website of a government agency or health care provider you trust. Don't use a calculator if the website is asking for your name, email address, or any other such information before giving you the results.
- The calculator will provide you with the child's BMI; however, unlike an adult BMI calculation, the child's specific BMI doesn't tell you much. You have to consult a chart to determine what that number means based on the child's age and biological sex.
- the manual calculation is as follows:
- BMI = weight in pounds / [height in inches x height in inches] x 703
- BMI = weight in kilograms / [height in meters x height in meters]
Part 2
Interpreting the Child's BMI
1Find a BMI chart. To properly interpret a child's BMI, you must use a growth chart that provides a BMI index based on the age of children and teenagers. The BMI is expressed as a percentile, which measures the child's BMI relative to other children in the U.S.[7]
- The data used to create the official BMI charts was gathered through surveys conducted from 1963-1965 and 1988-94. Keep this in mind when interpreting the results.
- You can easily find a BMI chart online. Use a government website or a trusted health care provider. There are two different charts – one for boys and one for girls.
2Locate the child's percentile. To use the BMI growth chart, first find the child's age along the bottom of the chart, then find the child's BMI along the side. Use a piece of paper or other straight edge to find the point on the chart that corresponds with the child's BMI and age.[8]
- The CDC chart allows you to find the percentile for children, teenagers, and young adults from two years old to 20 years old.
- Generally, the child is considered underweight if their BMI falls below the 5th percentile.
- If the child's BMI is greater than the 5th percentile but below the 85th percentile, the child has a normal or healthy weight. You still should monitor the child's activities and eating, particularly if they fall at the upper end of that range.
- If a child has a BMI above the 85th percentile, but below the 95th percentile, they are considered overweight, and a child with a BMI above the 95th percentile is obese. If the child falls in these ranges, they are at risk for significant health problems.
3Consult a health care provider. In children, the BMI calculation is not considered a diagnostic tool. If your measurements indicate that the child is either overweight or underweight, take the child to a doctor for further testing and analysis.[9]
- Occasionally, an older child with significant muscle mass may appear overweight on a BMI calculation when they are not. The doctor can help determine if the child is overweight or not.
- Let the doctor know the results of your measurement and interpretation, and schedule an appointment. The doctor may want to take skinfold thickness measurements or others to confirm your interpretation.
- If your interpretation shows that the child is significantly over- or underweight, the doctor may want to complete additional screenings to ensure the child does not have any health conditions as a result.
- The doctor also will likely conduct a complete evaluation of the child's diet, activities, and family medical history.
Part 3
Applying the Results
1Encourage healthy eating. Whether the child is over- or underweight, a healthy, balanced diet will put the child on the right track to healthy weight management, as well as building habits the child can carry with them into adulthood.[10]
- Provided the child isn't lactose-intolerant or allergic, make sure their diet includes two to three servings of low-fat milk and dairy products each day.
- Offer your child plenty of fruits and vegetables.
- Limit foods with saturated fats.
- Serve reasonable portions — the size of the child's fist is a good "rule of thumb" to measure portion sizes generally.
- Read ingredient labels carefully, particularly on processed or packaged foods. Avoid those that contain lots of chemicals and added sugars. Most processed foods should only be eaten occasionally.
- Choose lean meats such as chicken and turkey, and limit consumption of red meat.
- Avoid sodas and fruit juice drinks with added sugar. Instead, offer water, milk and natural fruit juices.
2Remove junk food and other temptations. If you have sweets and snacks in the house, the child will eat them. Replace candies, cookies, and salty snacks like chips and crackers with plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables.[11]
- You don't have to spend a lot of money to give children healthy snacks. Buy healthy grains and nuts in bulk and mix them together to make your own trail mix. You also can buy whole vegetables and cut them yourself and divide them into snack-size portions.
- Keep individually portioned bags of healthy snacks in the front of the fridge so anyone can grab them easily.
- Keep in mind that children learn from parents and adults. Teaching the children in your home to eat healthy means the adults need to eat healthy too. The children will emulate the adults.
3Provide an underweight child with protein-rich foods. If the child's BMI indicated they were underweight for their age, foods that have healthy fats and are full of protein will help the child build strong muscles and bones and encourage the child to gain weight.[12] Talk to your child's doctor or a dietitian for specific dietary instructions for your child's needs.
- Full-fat milk is better for underweight kids than low-fat or skim milk. Hummus and bean dips also provide a good mix of protein and healthy fat.
- Whole wheat breads and pastas are good sources of carbohydrates for kids who are underweight.
- Nuts, seeds, and avocados also are good sources for healthy fats that will help an underweight child gain weight.
- To encourage an underweight child to eat, especially if they are a picky eater, make mealtime a pleasant experience. Don't rush the experience, and involve the child in meal preparation.
4Add physical activity to your daily routine. Ideally, children should engage in at least one hour of moderately intense physical activity every day. Making physical activity a part of the daily routine for the entire family means children will be more likely to get involved.[13]
- For example, you may start a daily habit of going for a walk as a family after dinner each evening.
- When you think of moderately intense activity, focus on things that will make your child breathe harder and make their heart beat faster. They shouldn't be gasping for breath.
- For example, walking the dog is an activity of moderate intensity. Running around playing tag is more of a vigorous-intensity activity.
- If you have the means to do so, adopting a dog can be a great way to ensure everyone in the family leads a more active lifestyle. Walking the dog or playing with the dog outside all are moderate-intensity activities. Taking care of a pet also teaches a child discipline and responsibility.
5Limit screen time. Between television, computers, tablets, and smartphones, many children live relatively sedentary lifestyles in which too much time is spent in front of a screen. Monitoring and rationing this time can help encourage the child to be more active.[14]
- Pediatric health experts recommend limiting children's screen time to no more than two hours each day. This may be a difficult limit to maintain, however, if the child is older or has a homework assignment that requires using the internet.
- When children are sitting for an extended period of time, whether they are working on homework or playing a video game, encourage them to stand and move around every 20 minutes or so, even if it's only to get up and do jumping jacks for five minutes.
6Enroll the child in age-appropriate activities. School and community sports and other activities keep the child active. The child also can learn important lessons about teamwork, discipline, and responsibility.[15]
- Swimming and soccer are two activities that promote full-body fitness and overall strength.
- Gymnastics or dance classes teach important life skills such as discipline and focus while also giving a child a good whole-body workout.
- Some classes and sports can be relatively expensive compared to others, so make sure the activity fits in your budget before you introduce it to the child.
Community Q&A
QuestionWhat's my child's BMI be if she is 5'4" and 189 pounds?Community AnswerRoughly 32.4, which is an obese BMI. This is not always serious, but it can be, so it is a good idea to seek advice from a health professional. Encourage your child to get more exercise and eat healthier. Also try to monitor what she eats.
QuestionIs an 11-year-old with a 16.3 B.M.I. healthy?Luna RoseTop AnswererPossibly. This is a bit below average, however, health is measured by more than averages. When considering your child's health, it's most important to look at habits: exercise, balanced diet, mental health, etc. Some children with high BMIs play sports and eat lots of fruits and vegetables, and some with low BMIs get too much screen time and don't eat a balanced diet. The BMI system has some flaws, and should not be considered a complete picture of a person's health.
QuestionWhat's the BMI of a twelve-year-old who's 5 foot 3 inches and 49 kilos?JjanelizdCommunity AnswerThe BMI for a 12-year-old who is 5' 3 and 49 kg is 19.1, which is a normal weight, according to the body mass index chart.
QuestionWhat is the BMI for a 3-year-old with a weight of 11.5 kg and height of 96 cmCommunity Answer12.84 (underweight).
QuestionWhat's the BMI of a twelve-year-old who is 5 foot 3 inches and 49 kilos?MymyCommunity AnswerThe 12-year-old has a BMI of about 19.1, which is a healthy and normal BMI.
QuestionWhat is the BMI of a 5-year-old that weighs 21.5 kg and is 106.6 inches tall?YourMentallyAdvisorCommunity AnswerThe 5-year-old has a BMI of 19.2. She/he is overweight. An appropriate BMI for your child is 14-17.
QuestionHow do I know which percentile my child's weight falls into?Community AnswerTo find your child's percentile, you must have an accurate measure of your child's height as well as their weight. Using those measures, you can find your child's BMI using an online calculator. Using the chart that corresponds to your child's biological sex, locate their BMI on the side of the chart and their age along the bottom. Use a straight-edge to draw lines at those locations. The point where those lines intersect is the percentile for your child.
QuestionWhat is the formula to convert BMI to percentiles?SubduceCommunity AnswerFor children, there is no correct formula for calculating BMI until adult years. The correct way is to search a BMI growth calculator online, and compare your child's height and weight against that.
QuestionWhat is the BMI of a child who is 5 foot tall and 83 pounds?Community AnswerAbout 16.7.

New Fair Labor Standards Act Overtime Regulations
The United States Department of Labor ("USDOL") published the much anticipated final regulations updating the salary requirements necessary to maintain the overtime exemptions for executive, administrative and professional employees. The new regulations are effective December 1, 2016, giving employers approximately seven months to make decisions about how the new rules will affect their workplace.
The standard salary level under the new regulations will increase from $455.00 per week to $913.00 per week. This is the first update to the federal salary level requirement since August 2004, and will remain in place until January 1, 2020. Thereafter, there will be automatic updates to the salary amount that will occur every three years. The USDOL will publish future increases to the salary amount at least 150 days before their effective date. Thus, for long term planning purposes, employers should note that there will be automatic increases to the salary amount in 2020 and 2023.
In addition, the new regulation allows employers for the first time to use nondiscretionary incentive payments and bonuses (which include commissions) to satisfy 10% of the standard salary level. These payments may be tied to profitability and productivity. For example, these would include: (1) production bonuses for meeting certain production goals or quotas; (2) commission payments which are based on a fixed formula; and (3) retention bonuses. The regulations require that these payments be made at least on a quarterly basis, but employers may make the payments more often if they wish. By contract, a discretionary incentive or bonus payment occurs when the employer simply awards the employee a payment at the employer's sole discretion and not in accordance with any preannounced standards or written guidelines, such as a spontaneous reward for a specific act or an unannounced bonus payment not tied into any preannounced standards.
As you may know, meeting the salary level (and the proper payment of that salary) are only one component of establishing the "white collar" exemption under the Fair Labor Standards Act; the other being the duties assigned to the individual. The new regulations do not change the existing duties test.
Employers in New York will be required to provide new Wage Theft Prevention Act notices to any employees whose status will change from exempt to non-exempt. Employers who convert employees from exempt to non-exempt status must comply with applicable recordkeeping requirements including development and maintenance of time-recording records for employees who were previously treated as exempt. Employers should also review and update as necessary impacted job descriptions, and employment policies.
If you have questions regarding compliance with the new regulations, or you are unsure how they will impact your business, please call the labor and employment attorney at Barclay Damon with whom you regularly work, or any attorney in the Labor & Employment Practice Area.

One of the most important pieces of gear for winter adventures is a good pair of boots. Regardless of what winter adventure you're doing, if your feet get cold , it could be a miserable experience and even dangerous if your out for extended periods of time in the backcountry and frostbite sets in.
Keeping your feet dry and warm in the cold winter months can be a challenge and takes some experimenting to find what works best for the type of activity and terrain you're in. You can find tons of information on the web, but it can become overwhelming at times and even a little confusing.
The best thing to do, is to spend some extended periods of time in the elements, even an overnighter, to understand the different cold weather conditions and how to control moisture. Your feet WILL sweat or the weather can warm up, creating wet snow conditions and how you manage that moisture is what will make or break an adventure.
A lot of times when I'm out snowshoeing or hiking in the winter months I wear my Gortex running shoes with some Smartwool sox and a pair of gators. If I'm only out a few hours and I'm moving that entire time, I don't have a problem with cold feet even when they get a little wet. Sometimes i'll carry an extra pair of sox to change into if needed. If i'm out on a longer excursion with some stops or if I'm doing an overnighter, I'll be sure to get into a good pair of boots or mukluks.
I've tried several pairs of boots from different manufacturers, some good and some not so good, the price of the boot won't necessarily guarantee a good fit for your activity.
As I stated before the best thing to do is get out and spend some time outdoors in different conditions and for different lengths of time. If you live in the midwest, an expensive mountaineering boot might not be the best boot for you. It's important to know what your activity is and how long you'll be spending outside in the elements.
Talk to friends who have experience and ask what type of boot they use and what works best. My friend Matt has spent weeks in the backcountry of Northern Michigan and Canada in sub-zero temperatures and has experimented with many boots until he found the best system. Matt's been a valuable resource when I'm looking for the right boot for a winter adventure.
Another good way to try different boots, is through renting. You might not find many outdoor gear retailers that rent boots, but many winter festivals or races that have gear sponsors, will have boots for trial. The gear sponsors want to sell their brand and the best way to get you to buy is let you use their gear. I've tried several pairs of boots at the Ice climbing festival in Munising Michigan. I was able to wear the boots for the entire weekend, snowshoeing and ice climbing.
I came across this article by Michael Blair from New England on a hiking blog that I follow, and thought it was worthy of posting here.
Don't let cold feet ruin YOUR winter Adventure, find the right boot and enjoy the Winter months!!

Considering dental implants?
Are you considering dental implants? Teeth need to be extracted for common problems such as periodontists, cavities and/or trauma. What's next? The idea of being toothless is horrifying for most of us and never desired. But when a tooth is hopeless, alternatives must be taken into account to recover function and esthetic.
We offer our patients all the alternatives for tooth replacements. In the last 20 years, dental implants have reached the top of the list for most cases. Why? Because it has a high (95%) success rate, it looks and feels just like natural teeth. It sounds like a dream come true!
Downsides? There is always the risk of failure of the implant. Small cons compared to all the pros of restoring a tooth without compromising the neighboring teeth or the bother of removal dentures. Dental implants have made their way to the top of list of most demanded procedures. Studies have shown that with good oral home-care, and yearly follow-ups implants may last decades, like any other dental procedure. We tell our patients that success goes hand in hand with hygiene and care; full mouth restorations, veneers, crowns, root canals, and so on. Home-care is key for longevity of treatments. We worry for every patient, part of our plan is to teach our patients for treatments to last and live up to desires. Always brush your teeth after every meal, floss and if possible use a WaterPik or WaterFloss. This system helps clean small gaps, tiny spaces that are unreachable by the toothbrush and floss.
We have placed more than 5000 successful dental implants in Prisma Dental. We care about our patients and the treatments we provide.
We would like you to know more about our dentists and also our other services.

Xplor International Honors Three Outstanding Achievers
Friday, November 22, 2002
Press release from the issuing companyTORRANCE, Calif. U.S.A. (Nov. 15, 2002) - Xplor International, the worldwide electronic document systems association, presented three prestigious awards at Xplor 2002's closing session in Anaheim, California U.S.A. Innovator of the Year Inland Paperboard and Packaging received the Innovator of the Year Award for merging the gap between document printing and digital packaging. Through innovative machine design, Inland created the first completely digital variable data non-impact press, which prints directly on rigid corrugated material, a solution called PackageGenie.com Digital Process. Accepting the award was Mary Kay Schilling, Developer of PackageGenie Digital Technology, who developed and managed this project since its inception. "Inland Paperboard and Packaging is honored to have been chosen by the Global Xplor electronic document systems industry to receive the Innovator of the Year Award. We are pleased to have our PackageGenie digital technology recognized by the true innovators of the digital, variable data industry," remarked Schilling. About the Award Xplor International's "Innovator of the Year" Award honors a company, individual, or organization that has made a significant achievement in the electronic document systems industry, providing an imaginative tool, or advancement of a current technology that improves the capabilities of the industry and helps society communicate more effectively. Xplor Chairman of the Board James Shand, EDP noted "I was very pleased to see amongst the nominations someone who has really crossed the boundaries of our traditional industry by bringing two very different technologies together-a well deserved award." About the "Innovator" Inland Paperboard and Packaging creates solutions to protect, move and display products more efficiently and effectively. Inland's global resources include design offices and service centers, containerboard mills, corrugated box plants and facilities for high-end packaging and merchandising. This array of capabilities allows Inland Paperboard and Packaging to provide seamless solutions for its customers covering all aspects of packaging, from design to the retail shelf. Xplorer of the Year Xplor's Xplorer of the Year Award recognizes and honors the individual who has made the greatest contribution over the past year to the association. This year's recipient, Scott Kelly, EDP of US Lynx was recognized for dedicating his time, expertise, and his company's resources to further the mission of Xplor International. As an active Xplor member, Kelly is a leader in the Northeast Region, and serves on the IBM Joint Technology Council. As Chairman of the EDP Commission he has made significant contributions to the EDP Program by providing strategic direction, raising the level of awareness of the program, and increasing the number of successful candidates certified each year. Kelly, a leader by example, is a champion for Xplor and the industry. "Scott has been a driving force for Xplor's EDP program, and we fully appreciate his continued support of the organization", said Chairman of the Board James Shand, EDP. Scott Kelly, EDP, has been active in the electronic document industry for over 25 years, and was a pioneer in the computer typesetting business, as a founding partner of U.S. Lithograph. Subsequently he was involved in a number of media conversion and SGML initiatives, and helped his company write software for Xerox for the Docutech launch. These days he manages the development of interactive data-driven web sites and related laser printing. Kelly is chair of Xplor's Certification Commission, chair of Xplor's IBM Joint Technology Council, and has been a speaker at a number of Global Conferences. Upon receiving the award, Kelly remarked "…I started my career in typesetting and graphic arts. Imagine how intimidating my first Xplor conference was, coming from that background. I listened as members talked of managing pages in the millions, or tens of millions…Xplor was a very impressive group and still is.

his post started as a reply to the Tag that I received from Milo. Together with Nick's post where he mentioned 'Indigo Children'- it forced me to take a stroll down memory lane. Yesterday I was watching some show on television and a married couple got me thinking of back in the day.
On TV Last Night. ( I don't remember the names of the characters so I have used Jack and Jane Smith)
Jack Smith has been married to Jane for 8 years. One morning Jane wakes up and heads for the bathroom as she has done at certain times of the month over the last 5 years. A few minutes later she lets out a yell from behind the door and Jack comes rushing in.
"Honey!! We did it"… she says, amid an explosion of tears of happiness.
Jack scrutinizes the pregnancy tester in total disbelief and starts jumping up and down, tears streaming down his happy face. "Thank you God. We have waited for sooo long!"
Jack and Jane go back to the bedroom where they call their places of work and both obtain a day off. They call both sets of parents and exclaim to them " Mom, Dad! We are pregnant!" The folks in turn call their friends and close relatives spreading the word that Jane and Jack were expecting a baby.
Some people try for years to have just one child. Some people don't have to try at all. I have two girls of my own and the question of why I don't want a boy has always annoyed me. It is disturbing that in this day and age some people just dont get it-a child is a child!
The following is a true story:
I worked in the small lazy town of Gilgil for a while in the nineties. The town was forgotten when the new Nakuru- Nairobi road by-passed it. The only real reason anyone had for going to Gilgil was passing through on the way to Nyahururu. If you know Gilgil; then a picture of a small dusty Kenyan town, populated almost entirely by military, police, youth service and their families will come to mind. Perched high on the Kariandus hills; frequent whirlwinds (aptly nicknamed ********in kikuyu- any ideas- anyone?) blow across the whole town carrying papers, plastic bags and the odd branch or two. There is not much vegetation in Gilgil and you can imagine how painful it is to be caught in one of these, especially if you happen to be unlucky enough to come across a dust devil carrying the famed 'ngoja- kidogo' branch! ( I learned sometime back that the English name for that shrub is actually- 'wait a minute bush'- google it if in doubt!)
In this town I had a close friend- he was a couple of years my senior and till today this story still amazes me. My friend Nzomo- not his real name -was a mkamba. He'd just got recently married and was blessed with twins three months after his wedding. The pretty little girls were his pride and joy. After about six months we started noticing that Susan was pregnant again and we jokingly asked Nzomo what was happening. He replied that since God had given him two beautiful girls he wanted a set of boys and he would be done. A couple of months later he informs us that his wife had delivered not twin girls this time, but triplets! All girls. We had a harambee and thought nothing more of it.
The months grind by slowly in small semi-arid towns. When the wind isn't howling, its hot and the air seems to just hang in the sky suffocating everything- even the animals in its stillness. Absolutely nothing happens in this town and every day is like the other. The swelling of dark clouds over Lake Naivasha and the escarpment bring with them a distant longing for rain or at least a small shower. As soon as they appear ready to release their moisture, they are blown away to somewhere that doesn't need the rain; and everyone is back to the slow monotonous daily routine.It was a really sad town.
But my friend Nzomo always looked on the bright side of life and as he resumed work after almost two months leave, his face was beaming. He told us that he had consulted Mzee Kioi and other wazees in his rural home of Mwingi. They had given him a powerful dawa and he was sure to father a boy this time round. We were slightly confused by this because we expected him to put a stop to his fathering after 5 children. But his need to have a son was very strong. I, for one, pitied his wife- Susan, but was impressed by her strength and love for her husband. The twins were now going on three and the triplets were nearing their second birthday. They must have been a handful.
Nzomo started buying boys clothes, toys and was always talking about his 'son'. As the days went by Susan started putting on some weight and sure enough after a few months her pregnancy manifested itself. We held our collective breaths (or so it seemed) hoping that the visit to the dawa- man in Mwingi would bear fruit. Nzomos certainty was contagious and we all started believing in Mzee Kioi. Susans belly appeared smaller than the previous time and she could be seen looking radiant in the market, one kid on her back and the others at home with the house help.
This time we all went to Nakuru Memorial Hospital. Nakuru was the complete opposite of our little town of Gilgil. It was modern- had about six streets, several 'high rise' three and four story buildings. If my memory serves me right, I think the highest had a whopping six floors! The Memorial hospital was in Milimani at the base of the Menengai hill. It was off the tree-lined Nakuru Eldoret road on a side road leading to the rear entrance of State House Nakuru. Old colonial government houses surrounded the hospital. The Jacaranda trees carpeted the grass and roads with their lilac-blue trumpet blossoms. It was truly a most beautiful part of the town
We waited with Nzomo at the hospital for some hours but like all men we became restless. We convinced him that we all deserved a drink while waiting so we headed to Stags Head Hotel on the main street of Nakuru. We decided not to go to our normal pub- Gitwamba. This is where we came for our monthly R&R. The girls there all knew our names so it wasn't the ideal place to engage in a celebration. We ordered our tusker exports and premiums (remember them?) and had us a party at Stags Head! We allowed Nzomo to go back to the hospital on condition that he would return as soon as there was news. Nzomo never came back.
We later found out that Susan had delivered a brand new set of triplets-all girls. Our man Nzomo was devastated. 8 children in five and ½ years. None of saw much of Nzomo after that. He led a solitary life and avoided associating with his friends. Susan was shipped off to Mwingi and Nzomo moved to a small flat near the NYS camp. I left the dusty, hot and windy town of Gilgil that year and never really missed it. I lost touch with almost everyone I had known there.
A few years later however, I did hear that they tried one last time for a boy and had a final set of twins.
Two girls.

Nail fungal infections are typically caused by a dermatophyte fungus. Yeasts and molds also can be responsible for nail fungal infections.
What are fungi?
Fungi are microscopic organisms that don't need sunlight to survive. Some fungi have beneficial uses. Others cause illness and infection. Fungi:
Toenails vs. fingernails
Nail fungus occurs more often in toenails than in fingernails, partly because:

It was only fitting that on the 15th anniversary of 9/11, the Washington Redskins would open their home, FedExField, to our Armed Forces for a very special ceremony.
Army Spc. Christopher Stymiest – who's one of the biggest Redskins fans there is – wanted to have his reenlistment ceremony on the very field his favorite football team is set to do battle on this coming Monday night. The Redskins were more than accommodating to Stymiest's request, as the ceremony took place on one of the sidelines, where Army Maj. John C. Gardner presided.
Gardner and Stymiest were both a little nervous, because they were in such a cavernous building, but they soldiered up and powered through the ceremony, which was watched by a big group of Stymiest's closest friends and family.
Gardner says it was an event he wouldn't have turned down for anything.
"I'm honored. I'm honored and I'm proud," Gardner said. "I've known Chris for a long time, and he's had his trials and tribulations and he's pulled through. He's an awesome person, and an awesome soldier and I'm honored to do this."
"He's dedicated, he's honorable, he's motivated and he makes a great example for other younger soldiers," Gardner said.
When it comes to serving in the military, it's a generational thing in the Stymiest family. Stymiest's father, Glenn, served as a military police officer in the U.S. Army. His two grandfathers served our country as well.
"It's just a big family thing," Stymiest said. "That's where I wanted to go with my life, and I don't regret the decision one bit and I love it."
"Without a doubt, it's one of the greatest feelings I've had in my life," Stymiest said of joining the U.S. Army. "I put a lot of work into it, and do a lot of cool things [and] I see a lot of cool places. It's something that less than one percent of the United States population does, so it's good to be part of a family like that and have that support from your brothers and sisters."
Glenn was overwhelmed when he walked into FedExField and saw his son's name and title on the high-definition screens. It was a sight Glenn will never forget, and one that made the ceremony that much more special for him.
"You wouldn't believe how proud I am," Glenn said. "I really can't even explain how I'm feeling. Walking down the steps, and seeing my son's name on the billboards, that was just the ultimate power trip for me. I'm so proud of him, [and] I'm proud of the Redskins organization for allowing us to do this. They went above and beyond the call of duty by helping out us and having him reenlist."
Speaking of emotions, they came front and center both for Gardner and Stymiest when they spoke on the anniversary of 9/11 and what it meant for them to commemorate that tragic day with the ceremony at the stadium.
"This is a very special day," Gardner said, as he fought back tears. "It's branded into every American what happened 15 years ago. Me, personally, I reenlisted after 9/11. It's a sad day in American history that something like that happened on our soil and I'll never forget it. This day is very special, and it will be for as long as I live."
"It's a humbling day," Stymiest said. "It's one of those days that America comes together and remembers all the countless innocent civilians, and police officers, and firefighters, and paramedics, and search dogs and volunteers that gave their lives to help total strangers. It's definitely a humbling day."

Why is it hard to find Attitudes of Gratitudes at work? I have heard on occasion that being "too" thankful can be seen as "brown-nosing." (First, I want to know why we call it brown-nosing but I will leave that to another blog posting.). We must monitor how often we say things like thank you, well done, what an inspiration, cool or awesome. Apparently, if we are grateful "too" often, we are not authentic and have ulterior motives. Who decided this?
We have concluded that those things that "should" be done don't warrant gratitude. In essence, if the trash needs to be taken out once a week or reconciling the budget is due and these tasks are completed, a thank you isn't warranted. It was expected that you do them, hence no need for gratitude.
I would like to offer that we create a different approach. One in which we are grateful much of the time. Everyone knows that positivity and appreciation instill positivity and appreciation. Most of us aren't expecting gratitude for the things for which we are responsible, and don't expect praise and appreciation. And yet, it is also true that none of us like to be taken for granted.
A good friend told me last week that none of us are promised to be here tomorrow. Think about how often you are grateful for those around you and the work that they do. Do you have an Attitude of Gratitude?

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 14 — The entertainment industry's labor dispute boiled over anew yesterday, with the leaders of two striking unions criticizing each other and the Walt Disney Company lambasting the tactics of a third guild.
The escalating tensions came as the stalemate continued between Hollywood writers and producers over a new contract. Negotiations broke down on Nov. 4 over payments for reruns of programming on the Internet, among other issues, and no new talks have been scheduled.
The first shot was fired by Thomas C. Short, president of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employes, an umbrella group that represents technical workers like makeup artists and casting directors. A strike by one arm of the union, which began Nov. 10, has darkened most theaters on Broadway.
But that does not seem to have fostered solidarity between Mr. Short and Patric M. Verrone, president of the Writers Guild of America West. In a letter dated Tuesday, Mr. Short told Mr. Verrone: "I have warned you and predicted the devastation that would come from your action. Those predictions have now come true."
Citing the financial and job losses mounting from the writers' strike, Mr. Short complained that his members were stuck in the middle. "It's time to put egos aside and recognize how crucial it is to get everyone back to work before there is irreversible damage from which this industry can never recover," he wrote.Continue reading the main story
Mr. Short's bile struck some writers' guild officials as incongruous, given that the strike he authorized last week has wreaked havoc on New York City's stage and tourism businesses.
Mr. Verrone's response, while less caustic, bluntly dismissed Mr. Short's assessment. "To put it simply, our fight should be your fight," he wrote, going on to note that other unions had offered support instead of criticism.
Disney, meanwhile, went after a third union, the Writers Guild of America East, accusing it of lying. The big media companies had left criticizing the unions to the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, which represents the studios at the negotiating table.
The East Coast branch of the guild, which represents some 3,000 writers and operates independently of the West Coast branch, picketed the World of Disney store on Fifth Avenue in New York yesterday. Members handed out fliers that stated: "Here's the current arrangement writers have with Disney and other companies: Disney revenue from digital: $1.5 billion. Writer's share: $0."
In a statement, Disney said, "The W.G.A. leadership is deliberately distorting the facts."
Members have been paid residuals on entertainment content downloaded through iTunes, the company noted, adding that the bulk of the $1.5 billion came from sales of travel packages and Disney merchandise online.
"Deliberately misleading the public is not the best way to resolve this issue and get Hollywood back to work," Disney said.
A spokeswoman for the Writers Guild of America East said, "We would better know the nature of Disney's and ABC's revenues from digital if they would more fully and transparently reveal them to us."
Last month, Mr. Short and Mr. Verrone clashed over whether animation writers represented by Mr. Short's organization should be able to keep working if animation writers represented by Mr. Verrone's group went on strike. The two have also fought over organizing "story editors" who work for reality-based television programs.Continue reading the main story
