On September 4, 1991, the Basque rock band Negu Gorriak ("Red Winters") gave a surprise concert at the main young people's squat –or Gaztetxea– in Bilbao (Bizkaia). Negu Gorriak was a Basque rock band formed in Gipuzkoa, in 1990. Band members included: Fermin Muguruza, lead singer; Iñigo Muguruza, guitar; Kaki Arkarazo, guitar; Mikel Kazalis, on bass; and Mikel Abrego, on drums. They merged together rock, punk, hip hop, and reggae music. In June 1991, the band released its second album entitled Gure Jarrera ("Our Attitude"), to popular aclaim. Negu Gorriak is considered one of the most influential rock bands in the Basque Country. The band dissolved in 1996.

He asked the President's mother, Mrs. Rose Kennedy, how she managed to cope with the violent death of her two sons. She gently corrected him, "It was three sons. Joe died in the war." The interviewer was Father Patrick Peyton, C.S.C., recently declared Venerable by Pope Francis. Mrs. Kennedy continued, "The only way I could get through the loss of President Kennedy, my son Jack, as his body was lying in state, in a flag-draped coffin, in the Rotunda of the capitol, was to place my hand on the coffin and recall that our Blessed Mother too lost her Son to a violent death."
I was thinking of that interview and Mrs. Kennedy's response as the news about another senseless attack on innocent school children and teachers took place again this week this time in Parkland, Florida. There are parents, especially mothers, who are grieving at the loss of their beautiful children or of a young teacher.
What do we do? We have tried introducing legislation in the congress and in state legislatures, we have tried public debates, media campaigns, political solutions, and the problem of gun violence only seems to get worse. Certainly we have to keep trying and to look at the causes of these outbursts of violence against anonymous, innocent victims. We cannot give up.
Consider this as perhaps the gift of Divine Providence this week. Right after Jesus was baptized by John in the Jordan, he burst forth from the waters, the heavens were torn open, the Spirit descended upon him in the form of a dove, the voice of His Father boomed, "You are my Beloved; in you I am well pleased." Immediately, the Spirit drove Jesus out into the desert, and he remained in the desert for 40 days, tempted by Satan.
That happens to be this Sunday's Gospel. Is this providential. We are tempted to give up and give in to the senseless violence, to despair and feel powerless and hopeless. All are genuine responses that tempt us. In his struggle with the evil one Jesus does not back down. He confronts the Evil One at every turn.
Evil in our own day needs to be confronted and defeated, whether it comes from our own hearts, from neighbors, disturbed and sad individuals, senseless violence in our streets and schools, etc. How do we confront this epidemic of evil? We have to keep looking for solutions. However, the most powerful resource we have in our world is the God-given gift of prayer. As Jesus prayed in the desert for 40 days, he received all that he needed to overcome the powerful forces of evil.
Each Lent, we enter the school of Lent that draws us into the desert of our own lives. The Church has carefully learned from the experience of the Master in the desert and assembled for us in the school of Lent all that we need to overcome the evil within us and around us. Let's not lose this opportunity to pray, fast and reach out in charity to all in our Lenten school.
Someone has said, "Joy is sadness overcome." I believe Mrs. Kennedy's remarkable faith and prayer life brought her joy amid so much tragic loss. Our country can recover its joy beyond the present sadness, but we can't do it alone. We need each other and most of all we need to reach out in prayer to the Lord. He is waiting to hear from us and to renew our joy.

It was an unusually warm day in January (I suppose that's average for SoCal) that I found myself in the Albertson's parking lot in Tustin awaiting to meet Bob Brown (chef/owner) of the Spudrunners truck.
Upon boarding the truck, I was impressed by the careful precision, craft, and mastery that goes into the comfort food that Bob and his team prepare for the eager folks in line. Every dish oozes with pride and I watched, mouth watering, as Bob began telling me his story of a truck inspired by a single vegetable: the potato. If you follow my food adventures, you know what a fry addict I am. Fries have helped get over heart break, trauma, and many any other unfortunate events. Bob's fresh hand cut, fried to a golden crisp, fries hit my comfort zone. Paired with their amazing sauces (of which there is quite a selection), I was in fry heaven.
But the fries aren't the only star here. Hot of their grill, Spudrunners prepares a sandwich that rivals most others. What I love most about the Spudrunner sandwiches is the consistent crunch, the combination of flavors, and the juicy meat. The simple menu gives new meaning to "grilled cheese" and goes above and beyond. I opted for the Chipotle Chicken – grilled lime cilantro chicken, cheddar cheese, red onion, tomato, fire roasted green chili and chipotle ranch on sourdough. This southwest delicacy has a smoky, melt in your mouth, velvety texture. The chicken was seasoned and cooked perfectly. My only complaint was not having enough napkins; I would have happily licked my fingers if I wasn't pretending to be so lady-like but otherwise my tastebuds were dancing merrily while I sipped on fresh squeezed lemonade (not too sweet and not too sour). Perhaps, the best damn lemonade I've ever had. Pardon my French.
Rumor has it, there will be a 2nd truck soon. Very soon. If you're an active Foursquare user, Spudrunners will happily reward on your first checkin with some of their amazing fries (with purchase) and a free lemonade on your 5th checkin. While you're in line, don't forget to grab a loyalty card – 5 stamps gets you a lemonade and your 10th stamp gets you an entree. For readers, say "Suki sent me" at the window and get $1 off your next order.
Hungry yet? Track down Bob and the Spudrunners in Tustin, Cal State Fullerton, and Chapman. Follow them on Twitter and Facebook to stay updated on their latest adventures.

When it comes to rental assistance for single mothers, many are faced with huge problems. For most people, renting or buying a house is a necessity especially if you have a family, but what happens when instead of two incomes streaming into the home, there is only one? For a single mother, the problem of affordable housing is a critical one, since without the housing they have no place to nurture their children and help them grow. Finding a house and putting together a budget to keep it running can be one of the most stressful things a single mother can experience. However, the government is able to help single parents with grants so that they can rent the houses they need.
The Availability Of Section 8 Housing
Low income workers, including single mothers, have the option of getting rental assistance from the government in terms of section 8 of the US Housing Act. This Act helps these people by paying their landlords, no matter what kind of place they live in, and whether they decide to stay in one place or move around a lot, as many who are travelling salespeople might do.
In some cases, this assistance is project based, which means that a landlord will reserve a space for those who will receive assistance from the government. The tenant pays some of the rent, while the government makes up the difference. This ensures that no matter how much or how little these single parents earn, they do not end up homeless.
Sadly, not all neighborhoods have section 8 housing, and the ones that do, may not be the types of neighborhoods in which children should be raised, although there is a minimum housing standard that these properties have to meet. This form of assistance is a short term fix to a long term problem and is intended for those single parents who need a little help at a specific time, until they can help themselves.
In the case of an emergency, such as when a parent has left an abusive relationship with their children, emergency rental assistance can be applied for from certain charities, including the Salvation Army. In this case, the charity will generally help the single parent with money for a rental, or help them meet their mortgage commitments. Of course, this is a Band-Aid for an emergency situation, and is not a long term fix.
Rental Assistance For Single Mothers And Other Grants
There are many government grants available for single mothers, besides the usual housing grants. In fact, single mothers hoping to go to college, put their kids in daycare or even get support in an emergency will find that there is a lot of help available. Some of these grants include:
- Grants for housing – getting a grant for housing can mean the difference between being on the street and being comfortable for some single mothers. For many, a single income is just not enough to pay for expenses such as kids' educations, food and rent. That is why the government and many private facilities will assist single mothers with paying their rent.
- Study grants – One of the most important things a single mother can do is improve her life situation. However, to do this, a mother must become more educated and potentially earn a degree which is expensive. The government and some college foundations will provide single mothers with a way of studying and improving their life situations.
- Daycare grants – For a woman who has to go out to work, leaving kids with a friend or neighbor is sometimes not an option. That is why the government sometimes provides daycare grants, so that mothers know their children are taken care of while they are working.
The Focus Of Housing Assistance
Rental assistance for single mothers could make the difference between surviving and thriving. Because a single mother has so much to do and so little time to do it all in, having the extra concern of housing may be the straw that breaks the camel's back. However, with federal government grants and housing programs, they no longer have to worry about the state of their home.
Of course, being eligible for these programs depends on your financial situation and the state you live in, but some of the best include:
- Hope for Homeowners – Passed by Congress in 2008, this program helps single mothers get a 30 year fixed mortgage. While you may think that buying a house should not be first on the list of priorities for a single mother, it is important since they need to think long term about where their children will grow up, and the amount of money they will pay to buy versus the amount they will pay to rent.
- 211 – 211 Is a service that helps single mothers find affordable houses, and it is simple to access. To get the help, all you need to do is dial 211. The program then helps you find a home, but that's not all. 211 Also recommends addiction treatment centers for teens, help centers for elderly parents and all manner of support groups for single mothers who need support.
- The Housing Choice Voucher Program – Discussed earlier, Section 8 helps single mothers with assistance in renting or buying houses. This is essentially a part of the voucher program, and assists single mothers with subsidizing their rent payments.
- Housing Program per state – Each state will have its own requirements and grants to help single mothers, and to take advantage of these, you need to check how you fit in with your government's program. All states are given a budgetary amount for grants, and they split this according to what their voters need. As a citizen of a particular state, you need to ensure that you know what is available to help you, if you are a single mother.
- Shelter Plus Care Program – This program has been designed with single mothers who have a disability in mind. In these situations, single mothers may not be able to work or may be held back by their disability. This program provides them with houses and other forms of support so that they can continue to live. In some cases, the program also assists those struggling to deal with family problems such as mental health issues, drug addictions and even HIV/Aids.
Housing Payments Versus Rental Assistance
In some cases, a single mother may be put in the situation where she already owns a house, but cannot pay the mortgage. Whether due to disability or the need to use funds for an emergency, a single mother may be in a position where she needs to ask for financial assistance with her mortgage. If this is the case, there is a process she can follow, namely:
- The person in question needs to consult with their bank whether they should opt for a reinstatement or a repayment plan. With a repayment plan, the person who owes the overdue mortgage pays a little extra each month to cover the missed payments. A reinstatement plan allows the person who owes on their mortgage to pay the entire amount owing at a specified time agreed to by both parties.
- Single mothers can then apply to HUD or any housing assistance center. Once contacted, the housing authority will give the single mother the name and details of a housing authority workplace that they can go to for assistance. They can then discuss what they owe and the type of help that they need.
- The housing authority, using special software, will advise the single mother of which housing is available in their area, and how they can get the help they need.
Of course, getting either help with rent or with mortgages all depends on the housing currently being used, that is, either a house that is owned or rented. Rental assistance for single mothers can often come in the form of assistance with expenses other than rent, rather than with the rent itself.
When Is It Time To Ask For Help?
For any single mother, the burden of raising children and managing a house may seem excessive, but not all of them are in the same boat. Some will be able to manage their household on their sole income, and pay for any necessary expenses. Others however will struggle to make ends meet and when this happens they will need to ask for help in the form of rental assistance for single mothers. So how do you know if you qualify for a housing grant? Some of these guidelines will help you figure it out:
- Put together a budget plan. If your expenses exceed your income and you cannot possibly cut anything from your list of expenses, you may need help.
- Consider your housing situation. If you are paying very little rent but living in a bad area where you don't feel safe, you may need help moving to another area. In this case, there are certain grants you can apply for that will help you uplift your family.
- Will your situation change? If you are in danger of retrenchment, or you are in danger of having your income reduced in any way, you may need help. Similarly, if your expenses are likely to increase, such as may occur if you are expecting a baby, you may need to apply for a housing grant before this occurs.
The government is in the position of being able to provide for its citizens, especially with rental assistance for single mothers, but cannot do so for those who do not know how to take the first step. Improving the quality of your life should mostly be based on your ability to make things happen, with the aid of the government and other institutions. That is why any single mother should have an idea of how to improve her life once she has received a grant. This could include any of the following:
- Getting an additional job – if you have the time and can take on the extra responsibility, consider a second job to supplement your income. If you have time but need to be at home, consider a work from home position writing, proofreading or even using a technical skill, such as sewing or embroidery.
- Reduce your expenses wherever possible – cut the cable TV, cut out expensive snacks and reduce the number of times you eat out every week. Just making a few small changes could make a huge difference to your wallet.
- Ask your kids to help out when they reach a certain age – at 16 or 17, getting a part time job makes your child more responsible and could contribute to your household income. Though the contribution may be small, this will teach your child the value of money, while also helping, even if it is with just one bill.
Improving your life is something that everyone should aspire to, but it is easier said than done. In the modern economy where everyone is faced with retrenchments and high prices, a single mother has to face the added burden of paying for their children and for their home. A housing grant can help, either with rental assistance for single mothers, or by assisting on mortgage payments. By applying for help with housing, a single mother ensures that they are not just investing in their own future and comfort, but that of their family too. Whether they are taking care of kids or elderly parents too, with rental assistance for single mothers, an improvement in the quality of life is imminent.
If you think you are in a position where you could qualify for this type of assistance, you should apply. To do so, contact your local housing authority and have a discussion with them about your options for the present and for your future. You might find that rental assistance for single mothers is abundant and by simply asking for it, you can ensure a better life for your kids and of course, for yourself.

Adobe Plans Monday Launch Event for CS6, Creative Cloud
Adobe will launch Creative Suite 6 (CS6), the next version of its market-leading digital media software, next week in San Francisco, along with its new Web-based subscription service, Creative Cloud.
The April 23 event, to be hosted by Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen, will also be streamed over the Web beginning at 10 a.m. Pacific Time on Adobe's launch site. The presentation will be available later for replay at tv.adobe.com.
Not only will all the apps, such as Photoshop, Illustrator, Dreamweaver, and Premiere Pro be demonstrated to the public for the first time, but Adobe is staging a San Francisco scavenger hunt, with prizes of $10,000 and a free lifetime subscription to Adobe Creative Cloud.
The Creative Cloud service gets users all of the CS6 apps—Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, DreamWeaver, Premiere Pro and the rest—along with updates, starting at $49.99 per month for an individual user. The service includes all of Adobe's mobile apps, too, as well as online collaboration and project hosting capabilities.
Adobe is not allowed by law to add features to one-time purchased software, but the Creative Cloud model doesn't have this restriction, so subscribers will get new features periodically without needing a full program update. It will also include syncing of your work in the apps between multiple devices, 20GB of cloud storage, Adobe Business Catalyst site hosting, and thousands of Web-based fonts.
In addition to the product launches, Adobe will "unveil new primary research on the impact of creativity on our culture and economy, and reveal new initiatives that encourage creativity in education," according to the company.
Adobe previously released a beta of the CS6 suite's leading app, Photoshop. For an in-depth look at the new standard in image editing, read PCMag's hands on with Adobe Photoshop CS6 Beta and the slideshow below.
Last week, Adobe tipped the video professional's version of the suite, CS6 Production Premium, showing the new versions of Premiere Pro, After Effects, Audition, Encore, and Story Plus applications. Also shown were two new suite members—Prelude CS6, a new app for organizing production workflow through on-set ingest and logging; and SpeedGrade CS6, professional color grading tool.
Stay tuned on PCMag for full rated reviews of the new Creative Suite 6 apps after they become available on Monday.

Thighs Liposuction
Thighs are one of the most common areas of the body where patients, and particularly women, choose to get liposuction. Removing fat from the thighs via standard means like dieting and exercise has always been quite tricky, if not impossible, depending on genetic factors, which is why so many women turn to liposuction.
Removing fat from the outer thighs can create a more youthful, athletic appearance. Moreover, siphoning excess fat out of the inner thighs can not only improve body contouring but also a person's comfort, since it can be quite inconvenient when the fat of the inner thighs rubs together throughout the day. Apart from the look issue, taking fat off these areas can also help men and women find clothing which actually fits them; besides, it is not uncommon to wear a particular dress size for the whole body except for the area around the hips and thighs, since trying to move up a size so as to accommodate wide legs can make clothing too large elsewhere on the body.
Finally thighs liposuction is also the best option in order to achieve the much demanded Thigh Gap, the latest craze when speaking of liposuction!
Top Method for Thighs Liposuction
As with almost all cosmetic surgeries nowadays, Tumescent Liposuction (more info) with local anesthesia is the most widespread and effective option for Thighs Liposuction, reducing their circumference, tightening the skin and smoothing existing lumps while also ensuring minimal harm to surrounding tissues, negligible bruising or pain, quick recovery and permanent results. In general, Wet Liposuction derivatives seem to work exceptionally well for this body area; thusly, it is no wonder that some surgeons may also recommend the Super Wet Liposuction, which delivers similar results.
In cases where your thighs are full of cellulite you should probably opt for Cellulaze which is a technique that removes fat while at the same moment it treats cellulite!
Thighs Liposuction Reviews
The number of testimonials for this particular type of liposuction are adequate enough to conclude that it is actually an effective and trouble-free method. Most patients report significant fat removal and remarkable contouring of the treated areas, mentioning all the same that proper dieting and regular workout plays a major role in the refinement and maintenance of the results. Moreover, few reviewers have complained about severe side effects (mostly swelling, bruising or bleeding) whereas the scars left, while existing, are not be very visible. Finally, there has been no severe criticism about post-operative issues, as no special care is needed during the recovery period.
There is no indication in Realself.com for the average price of a Thighs Liposuction procedure. Still, a potential user of this surgical method should anticipate to pay an average of $4,000; however, substantial variations exist, mainly due to the uniqueness of each case, and the total expenditures can range from $2,000 to $7,000.
Before and After Photos
Our Advice
By and large, Thighs Liposuction is regarded as a secure and effectual method for dealing with accumulated fat deposits, both on inner and outer thighs, for men and women who cannot shed them otherwise. Therefore, these people are the ideal candidates for that type of operation, and especially those who have notable skin elasticity. On the contrary, patients with wrinkled thigh skin might not achieve truly satisfactory results, whereas older persons, or those who have shed a major amount of weight and maintain only a minimal amount of thigh fat, might be consulted to totally abstain from the procedure. So, if you need to undergo this operation and you are concerned about your skin elasticity, ask your surgeon if you should proceed or not. Sometimes, a thigh lift may be better than liposuction, since wrinkly thighs might end up making you look older than you really are!
What you also need to ensure for getting the maximum outcome is that your surgeon will not exaggerate with the diameter of the liposuction cannula, since large cannulas tend to bring about skin irregularities, while the type of anesthesia is also an issue; local anesthesia only can make the whole procedure easier for the surgeon, while general anesthesia poses positioning issues with the placement of the breathing tube, which can make it difficult to properly treat the patient from all angles. Finally, do remember that Thighs Liposuction has been designed for just removing the excess fat volume of the thighs, and not to treat cellulite, so it is important that you have proper and realistic expectations about this procedure from the very beginning! As we mentioned before the only liposuction technique that provides cellulite removal is Cellulaze so if this is your main issue you should consider the specific technique

Of all the numbers counted even, odd,
or dark within the scale of fractions dense
along the endless integers, the flawed
eternities of primes whose great expanse
is random-scattered, patchy, pure, across
the exponential wilderness -- I wish
I had one multiplier without loss,
nor subject to divisions poorly rich.
With such I would such mathematics yield
for you, you'd wonder what remainder stayed,
what algorithms algebra concealed
obscure that might have freer play.
While others crack their chalk in mute despair,
These nimble number symbols root my square.

One Night Only, the band from Yorkshire I had a crush on when their very famous single Just for Tonight (that's so 2007 by the way) hit radios all around the world, just released their new album called Where The Sleepless Go.
I admit I was little bit skeptical about it because it took ages to finally release. I thought it would never happen and they will say they end with music. Through the time when they were silent one former member left, Mark Hayton (guitar, vocals) so the band looks like this now: George Craig (vocals, guitar), Daniel Parkin (bass), Jack Sails (keyboards, vocals), James Craig (drums) and a new member Jonny Howe (guitar).
Started a Fire was great, One Night Only was even better so what about their third album, Where The Sleepless Go?
Not bad but not good like the previous ones.
It contains 10 songs which sound little different from their old ones but not as much as I expected. The non-difference is not my problem, somehow my ears don't like it as much as I loved Started a Fire and One Night Only.
Anyway, I still managed to find one song which I like, it's called Talk You Down and you can listen it here on Spotify like the whole album. Let your ears relax with some indie vibes and tell me what do you think about this new album Where The Sleepless Go by One Night Only.
You are original, stay original.

Surya = Sun Namaskara = Greeting or salutation. Surya means the sun and namaskara is a greeting of honor and respect to the divinity within each of us. The practice of the sun salutations is a dynamic flow of breath and movement that has many benefits. It is said that this yoga asana will awaken and tone every area of your body. Generally the sun salutations are the warm up component of a yoga practice – generating heat, rhythm and blood flow, as well as allowing the attention of the practitioner to draw inward and still on the flow of the breath.
I will be modifying the sequences of Surynamaskara A & B in these video clips in order to give you the alignment and foundation so that when we advance to the full expression of Surynamaskara A & B you will be well grounded in the biomechanics of the movements in order to fully reap the benefits of these age old salutations. To begin, we will stand in Tadasana, or mountain pose. In this pose you will begin to explore what it feels like to "awaken" your legs, to "deepen" your foundation, and to "enliven" your core. The foundation is where it all begins, and so allow yourself to really feel into your roots. Lift off the heel of your right foot, pressing down deeply into the roots of your right toes. Explore the whole ridge of those roots as you move your weight around on this new base. Then, as if you were moving in slow motion, lower your heel and as you do, lift the right kneecap up by hugging your thigh muscle around your thigh bone, drawing the energy right up the front of your leg from your foot. As you sink your heel down into the earth you will feel around the whole periphery of the heel in a new way, a deep, secure contact. This will more than likely leave you feeling very differently in your right leg as opposed to your left. Acknowledge that awareness – you are now "living" in your right leg. Repeat this procedure to the opposite side.
Once you have established your foundation you are ready to allow for the rest of your being to grow and elongate. With both legs now active, draw your attention to your pelvic floor and tilt your pubic bone back into your body, towards your navel. This will give you the sense that you are gently "tucking down" your tail. Do this without clenching your buttocks, as may be the tendency – it is much more subtle than that, and will bring awareness into an area you may have herd referred to as "moola bandha". This is the root lock, an important awareness to begin to cultivate, which we will discuss in another installment.
From here we will allow the body to expand upward toward the light, by bringing the arms up on an inhale. There is an important awareness here too, for as the arms lift it will be most people's tendency to do the lifting with the top of the shoulders – the area that on most bodies is already overworked and tight. Lets help the tight shoulders out by externally rotating the arms before they rise, by turning the palms outward. Then keeping an active inner elbow by spreading the "eye" of the elbow open, raise your arms overhead. There is no need to bring the hands together, parallel is fine.
From here you will bend forward exhaling and hinging at the hips, keeping the arms out to the side in order not to strain the lower back. It will look like a swan dive as you move through toward your legs. Come as far as you can keeping the back flat. For most, the hamstrings at the back of the legs will be the inhibitor to forward movement. When they are tight one will try to keep moving forward by letting the back round and overstretching the ligaments at the back of the body around the lower spine. This may lead to chronic lower back pain. Give your back a break and lower only as far as you can with a flat back, when you reach your limit there, bend your knees and continue.
You will find yourself in a full forward fold (utanasana) either way, with your knees bent or not. You will then extend your spine coming into front extension, fingers either on the floor or on your shins or knees, back flat. There is an inhale here, followed by exhaling and taking your hands to the floor beside your feet and taking your left leg back and then your right to upper plank position.
Keeping the body like a plank (your heels pushing back) from the heels to the top of the head you will then lower yourself down to your may. If one is unable to lower without buckling at the waist, then lower the knees down to modify. You will develop more core and arm strength this way then by doing it improperly. Once down bring the arms forward for cobra push-up. Place the arms parallel in front of you with the elbows bent and just in front of the shoulders – similar to a sphinx. Then with lots of intention but little visible movement you will pull your ribs along the floor toward your hands, and (secretly) pull your hands toward your ribs (don't actually let them move), creating a dynamic movement that will feel delicious in your core body. This movement is an inhale, but take a breath or two here and really enjoy the feeling.
From there you will bring your hands back under your shoulders and press up and back to downward dog. Of course you can refer to the previous group of videos to learn all about the technique for downward dog. After three to five breaths in downward dog you will step back up to your hands on an inhale into the extension position. On an exhale release into a forward fold, and on the next inhale press down into your roots and with active legs raise your torso back up to standing, arms out to the sides and then up overhead. On the exhale lower the arms back along side and then back into namaste position in front of your heart.
By coordinating the breath to movement you may experience the cardio aspect of the sun salutations, and the serpentine quality of these lovely movements. The sun salutes are meant to generate heat and limber the body up for standing and other asanas. That is not meant to say that you want to rush through them, but by all means allow your practice of them to be active.

Foamtec to Introduce MiraSAT(R) 100% UPW (Ultrapure Water) Pre-Saturated VOC-Free Cleanroom Wipes to Environmental, Safety & Health Professionals at the SESHA 39th Annual International High Technology ESH Symposium & Exhibition on April 18, 2017, Embassy Suites by Hilton Scottsdale Resort, Scottsdale, Arizona
OCEANSIDE, CA--(Marketwired - April 11, 2017) - How can high technology facilities reduce tons -- yes, tons -- of permitted volatile organic compound (VOC) air emissions by using VOC-Free cleanroom wipes?
Are isopropanol-free wipes feasible in improving cleaning efficacy while reducing VOC emissions?
Are pre-packaged, contamination-free, VOC-Free wipes available to the industry?
Hundreds of environmental, safety and health (ESH) professionals will gather this April in Scottsdale, Arizona to discuss emerging practices and technologies to improve environmental, safety and health performance in high technology industries at the SESHA 39th Annual International High Technology ESH Symposium & Exhibition.
"Between the flammability hazard and fugitive VOC emissions, the use of solvent wipes in clean rooms have challenged industry ESH professionals for decades," said SESHA Fellow and Past-President, Bernie Frist.
Foamtec will introduce its new, 100% UPW (Ultrapure Water) Pre-Saturated VOC-Free Cleanroom Wipe for cleaning critical surfaces… MiraSAT® to ESH professionals at SESHA 2017. MiraSAT® enables wafer fabs to use ultrapure water pre-saturated wipers to replace isopropanol-saturated wipes and eliminate the use of hazardous chemical solvents for wipe down applications, helping to minimize fugitive VOC emissions and improve fab safety by reducing open use of flammable VOC solvents.
"Wafer fabs have been struggling to meet advanced process parameters while trying to minimize VOC emissions, and we now have a new, pre-saturated solution that helps eliminate a major part of their fugitive VOC emissions from daily fab operations. Nearly a pound of fugitive VOC emissions are generated from a single package of pre-saturated isopropanol wipes, and close to two pounds of VOC emissions for every one liter bottle of isopropanol used to saturate dry wipes. A typical Wafer fab may use tens of thousands of these wipes and hundreds of gallons of isopropanol per month," said Vice President of Microelectronics for Foamtec International, Armand Barrios.
Information on the SESHA Symposium may be found at www.sesha.org or by contacting SESHA Headquarters at 703.790.1745, firstname.lastname@example.com.
About Foamtec
Foamtec's mission is to enable contamination control professionals to improve particle control in clean rooms by solving surface contamination challenges. The Wilshire Contamination Control Division of Foamtec International supplies clean room mops, foam swabs, microfiber swabs, foam wipers, microfiber wipers, UltraSOLV® ScrubPADS to address clean room cleaning and the critical cleaning of process equipment.

Actually, Time Lords get 12 regenerations (and so 13 forms or lives), and David Tennant will be Doctor number 10. The Doctors are, in order:
William Hartnell - "The original, you might say."
Patrick Troughton - No. 2
Jon Pertwee - No. 3
Tom Baker - No. 4
Peter Davison - No. 5
Colin Baker - No. 6
Sylvester McCoy - No. 7
Paul McGann - No. 8
Christoper Eccleston - No. 9
David Tennant - No. 10
EDIT: Some other actors have played Doctors, Richard Hurndall replaced William Hartnell as Doctor 1 for The Five Doctors as Hartnell had passed away in the early 70's. I think David Tennant played The Doctor in the radio play Scream of the Shalka, as well. And a jokey charity one-off, Dimensions In Time, featured such actors as Hugh Grant and Rowan Atkinson as "future incarnations" of The Doctor.
We still have a few more to go before he reaches his final end, but we could use a few more Pertwee/T. Baker-length eras, rather than one-shots like McGann and single seasons like Eccleston or we really will be facing the end of Doctor Who.

It's been one of those days. First, the CME broke for 4 hours due to what some suggested were HFT connectivity issues, then Russia announced it would send a second humanitarian convoy into Ukraine (a big risk off move the first time it was announced, now not even an algo stirred), then Germany reported that the IFO Business Confidence/Climate dropped for the fourth consecutive month to 106.3 from 108.0, below the 107.0 expected, with the IFO chief economist stating that German GDP expectations are likely to be cut to 1.5% from 2.0% later in the year, and finally the French government collapsed due to disagreement over policy between finance minister Valls and economy minister Montebourg. All in all, a typical day in Europe's slow-motion implosion. So why are Spanish and Italian bank stocks soaring and European bond yields reaching new record highs? Simple: following Draghi's speech on Friday at Jackson Hole, which at initial read was hardly as dovish as many had expected, the FT and various other media outlets promptly changed the narrative and made it seem as if the ECB head was about to unleash QE.
European QE that is, of course, assuming Draghi ever goes about revealing either the TLTRO or the ABS plan he revealed months ago. Then again, this being the ECB it is all about speculation and innuendo, with QE almost virtually assured not to happen unless European GDP (adjusted for hookers and blow or otherwise) is in freefall mode and rioting is on the street, well even more than usual.
It will be a quieter week than even usual (keep in mind volumes last week were the lowest in years) with a US holiday on the horizon (there will be nobody manning trading desks on Friday as everyone rushes to catch one last weekend on Hamptons frat boy fun) and so attention turns to US New Home Sales, the Markit Composite PMI, the Dallas Fed and tomorrow's meeting between the Ukrainian and Russian Presidents, which Merkel previewed over the weekend saying not to expect much if anything.
Bulletin headline summary from RanSquawk and Bloomberg
- EUR/USD slumps to an 11-month low as markets bet on diverging policy between the Fed and ECB, widening the US/GE 10yr yield spread to levels not seen since 1999
- US stock futures sit at all-time highs ahead of the US open as markets price-in the increasing likelihood of ECB asset purchases
- UK bank holiday keeps volumes muted, but attention turns to US New Home Sales and tomorrow's meeting between the Ukrainian and Russian Presidents
- Long Treasuries gain, curve spreads flatten led by 5/30; overnight volumes light as U.S. Labor Day weekend looms.
- With euro-area data this week likely to show the weakest inflation since 2009, Draghi pushed the ECB closer to QE by warning in his Jackson Hole speech that investor bets on prices have "exhibited significant declines"
- Jackson Hole Roundup: Yellen shift to neutral vs Draghi easing
- Germany's Ifo institute business climate index fell to 106.3 in August, more than expected and a fourth consecutive monthly decline, from 108 in July
- French President Hollande asked Prime Minister Valls to form a new government amid a cabinet dispute over the direction of the euro area's second-biggest economy
- Greece plans to reopen its 3Y & 5Y bond issues in next two weeks to top them up by up to EU1.5b; payment to be in outstanding T-bills instead of cash, Reuters reports, citing unidentified senior govt. official
- Sellers of bonds backed by mortgages and auto loans would have to give investors details including the borrowers' income and credit scores under rules the SEC is poised to consider this week, according to two people briefed on the plan
- Russia plans to send a second convoy loaded with humanitarian aid to eastern Ukraine, Foreign Minister Lavrov said, days after the first delivery sparked international condemnation by crossing its neighbor's border without authorization
- The Democratic Republic of Congo said as many as 13 people have died of Ebola in a separate outbreak from the one raging in three West African nations
- Islamic State militants seized a Syrian air base, dislodging forces loyal to Assad from the last stronghold in the northeastern Raqqa province
- An alliance of Islamist militias said it wrested control of Tripoli's international airport from a rival force after weeks of fighting that triggered an exodus of foreigners and threatened to plunge Libya deeper into chaos
- Sovereign yields decline. Asian stocks mixed, European equities gain. U.S. stock futures higher. WTI crude and copper gain; gold lower

German, Italian and Spanish 10yr yields hit all-time lows this morning after the continued dovish digestion of Draghi's comments at Jackson Hole on Friday. Draghi highlighted that the ECB will acknowledge the deterioration in inflation expectations seen over the past few months - leading to more speculation bets of QE and further easing from the ECB. The upside in Bund futures was cemented by the lower than expected IFO Business Climate survey, with the IFO chief economist stating that German GDP expectations are likely to be cut to 1.5% from 2.0% later in the year. T-notes trade higher, but underperform their European counterparts as traders highlight the policy divergence themes evident in Yellen's speech on Friday against Draghi's particularly dovish tones.
Prelim Barclays month end extension for Pan-Euro Agg at +0.03y (Prev. 0.12yrs, 12m average +0.03yrs)
Prelim Barclays month end extension for Sterling Agg Tsy at +0.08y
Prelim Barclays month end extension for US Treasuries +0.12yrs (Prev. 0.08yrs, 12m average +0.09yrs)
European equities surged from the open, led higher by Italian and Spanish banks (Banca Monte dei Paschi up over 5%) as markets eye the increasing likelihood of broad-based asset purchases from the ECB. French markets have shrugged off the resignation of the French government, after the PM Valls handed in notice of the dissolution of the parliament after economic policy hit the rails after slashing growth forecasts last week. US stock futures have struck all-time highs (E-Mini S&P all-time high now at 1997.50) on the back of ECB easing hopes, indicating a strong open on Wall Street later today.
USD-index trades at its best levels since September 2013 as policy divergence between the Fed and ECB continues to support the USD, which saw EUR/USD hit an 11-month low following Draghi's comments. Separately, USD/JPY touched a 7-month high following dovish comments from BoJ Governor Kuroda, who said that QE will continue until inflation expectations are anchored which may take "some time". Nonetheless, the pair has drifted back towards the 104.00 handle which is said to be a large option expiry worth USD 1bln.
Energy markets trade relatively unchanged, with traders looking ahead to the meeting between the Ukrainian President Poroshenko and Russian President Putin tomorrow, where the two are to discuss de-escalation in Ukraine. The Russian foreign minister this morning announced a second aid convoy is to cross over to Luhansk by the end of the week, despite the controversy over last week's violation of the Ukrainian border. Spot gold and silver trade slightly softer after the USD-index struck the best levels since Sep'13 on the continued digestion of Yellen's less-dovish speech on Friday.

They say that FASHION is about more than clothing but it symbolize empowerment and confidence to face the world. Everyday, I wear different clothes and portrays a different role. I can be fierce, sweet, dainty and energetic or sometimes, i can just be a simple mom to my two kids. Whatever clothes I wear defines who and what I am as a woman, employee, student, mother, wife, blogger and social media influencer.
"Clothes are powerful, you're selling confidence because what you wear has the ability to tell a story about who you are." These words are too powerful that can define you as a person and what you want to portray in life. They say that your personality is often a strong indicator of what you wear and because our moods differs everyday, there are tendency that your fashion will vary on your daily moods.
Professor Karen J. Pine, of the University of Hertfordshire (U.K.) writes in her very short book Mind What You Wear: The Psychology of Fashion "When we put on a piece of clothing we cannot help but adopt some of the characteristics associated with it, even if we are unaware of it."
Finding the right clothes not just boost our confidence but give us life and meaning. My clothes does not just affect my confidence level but also influences my day. I believe in FashionCare and most of all I don't forget that confidence is the best of accessory in life, so I have to grasp every moment and live each day with gratitude and happiness.
Take a peek into my life and the different clothes I wear that defines who I am as a person.
I was once an ugly duckling, I have no idea on how to dress properly, fashion is never my thing in the past until one day when I decided to become a BLOGGER and social media influencer, my life change in a drastic but good way. I need to be versatile and not just following the hottest trends in the net but I wanted to show my readers that despite our busy schedules and life, a mom like me can still be chic, fashionable and always ready to take the world at the tip of my hand. As a blogger, you need to define your style. It takes a lot of effort to balance your life as an employee, a mother and a wife and a social media influencer. I believe that there will always be crazy and lazy days but it doesn't mean that you should stop taking care of yourself and look great not just on your outside but also on the inside. So, even If you wear your high heels or boots, color your nails blue or green and put on red or orange lipsticks, wear your best self.
One is never over-dressed or underdressed with a Little Black Dress.' – Karl Lagerfeld
Live the life you wanted and do the things you enjoy doing. That is one thing I have learned in my life. Helping our environment and creating awareness on healthy living is what I believe is a part of my role, my social responsibility. I find confidence on knowing that others believe in me and follow the advocacy i chose.
"Clothes aren't going to change the world, the women who wear them will' – Anne Klein
Through FASHION and the clothes you are wearing, you are creating a big impact on promoting your advocacy.
'Don't be into trends. Don't make fashion own you, but you decide what you are, what you want to express the way you dress and the way you live.' – Gianni Versace
And the best clothes I LOVE THE MOST is being a WIFE and MOTHER. Being with my family forgets all my worries and help me realize the things I am willing to sacrifice and willing to give up for the sake of their happiness. With them, i don't need to wear my stylish dress or my stilettos but I can always wear my best PASSION, being a good mother and wife and share to my children my passion for fashion.
'Anyone can get dressed up and glamorous, but it is how people dress in their days off that are the most intriguing.' – Alexander Wang
The clothes we wear defines who we are and each day we wear a different fashion, let us all remember to be a woman of substance and beauty and most of all with purpose, having that confidence to take on every challenge that comes our way will make our life worth living. Just like Electrolux UltimateCare Washing Machines who believes that every one has it's own power and by believing in that, they were built not just to make your clothes clean but taking care of your clothes to last longer.

Here's a simple tip to boost your confidence through the way you dress 🙂
- Dress for success, be comfortable on your body, embrace all your flaws and remove all insecurities.
- Find the right color that compliments your own skin. Get the right fit and cutting. Some people start from the basic colors like, black, grey, white. But you can go with bright colors and designs if you like.
- Sunglasses, accessories are some of the things that can help boost your appearance. Get some quality pieces that goes along with your clothes.
- Dress appropriately according to occasion. It's always nice to be unique but don't forget that there are some appropriate clothes on different occasion which you needed to consider.
- Find the clothes that will suit your personality and always go out from your house with a positive mind and most of all give your best on everything you do.
- Be align with your fashion. They say that what you wear represents your personality. So, make sure you are sending your true intentions.
And now, i am ending my post by sharing you my favorite quotation from my favorite actress.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows and the beauty of a woman only grows with passing years.' – Audrey Hepburn
Be congruent, be authentic, be your true self.
lots of love 🙂 melandria

California Introduces Statewide Green Building Code
Where LEED Once Led: California Has A Conservation Rush.
California has proposed a new statewide building code aimed at improving energy efficiency and water consumption.
In what was described as the United States' first statewide "green" building rules, the California Building Standards Commission said the code would help reduce the carbon footprint of every new structure in the state.Via::Inquirer.net, Agency France Presse.
The Commission proposal is still in the public comment period, but let's assume that something resembling what was proposed will be made final in the winter of 2009. What does it mean; what's next?Goals of the new code include: 50 percent landscape water conservation reduction; energy use of new structures are 15%t better than under existing standards; and, greater use of recycled materials.
That the strict formaldehyde off-gassing limits proposed might make it hard for FEMA to respond with trailers in an emergency could be a possible drawback. (Joking)
Governor Schwarzenegger had this to say in a press release:
"By adopting this first-in-the-nation statewide green building code, California is again leading the way to fight climate change and protect the environment. This is literally a groundbreaking move to ensure that when we break ground on all new buildings in the Golden State we are promoting green building and energy efficient new technologies. Cars and buildings are two of the leading users of energy — we're already addressing cars, and these new building standards will ensure that California remains at the forefront of reducing our carbon footprint and conserving valuable natural resources while also protecting our economy. We have already committed to making our state-owned buildings more green and energy efficient and this statewide code will reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve energy efficiency and conserve water in all new buildings.Here's how things will proceed.
"With today's action, California continues to lead the nation and I commend the hard work of the Building Standards Commission to adopt the first-in-the-nation statewide green building standards."
Proposed codes made final by 2009.
Handful of other states copy it inside of a year.
You'll hear about it on NPR.
USGBC will grumble a bit, and then adapt to state and regional needs.
Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck will characterize it as "________"
In a year or two (say by mid-2010) there will be minor amendments to make the codes more effective.
Congress Critters will propose incentives for other states to do similar code revisions. Builders will lobby against that, claiming it is unconstitutional to mess with codes at the Federal level.
The US will become a patchwork of green building and zoning issues and stay that way unless by voluntary collaboration led by Governors.
The full draft of California's newly proposed building codes can be downloaded here, as pdf file.

The White House Is Lowering Expectations For Obamacare
The Department of Health and Human Services released an analysis Monday with the projections, which come in around 3 million to 4 million short of what the nonpartisan budget office estimated in April.
HHS cited a slower-than-anticipated shift away from employer-sponsored insurance and off-market individually obtained insurance as the reason for the lowered expectations. The federal and state insurance marketplaces, the department said, are not "ramping up" as fast as the CBO had projected."Recent data suggest mixed evidence about the extent to which there is a shift in ESI and off-Marketplace individual coverage into the Marketplace," HHS said in the analysis.
The department said sign-ups through the exchanges would still be on track to hit 25 million by the end of 2017, a benchmark number that is considered important to the law's success. But it said it would continue to measure accomplishments by the number of people that have become uninsured after the advent of the law.
"It is also important to view Marketplace enrollment in the broader context. One important goal of the law is reducing the number of uninsured people, and the Marketplace is just one means to that end," the department said.
"In practice, reducing the uninsured will be achieved through a combination of Marketplace retention, new Marketplace enrollment, increases in Medicaid enrollment, and continued support for a robust system of employer-sponsored insurance. Thus, we will measure our success by whether we are making continued progress in reducing the number of uninsured Americans. We will continue to work to decrease the number of uninsured Americans and expect the number to continue to decline."
HHS also said 7.1 million people were fully enrolled in insurance plans obtained through the Affordable Care Act as of Oct. 15, down from the 8 million figure it trumpeted in the spring.

Hey everybody!
I guess I've kind of been gone! After being gone for 10 days, I spent Monday doing laundry, uploading pics, and all that stuff you do after being on vacation. Yesterday I worked in my classroom and then was so exhausted I just vegged. Today worked in the classroom, took my kids to my in-laws, and then Mr. Mag and I had kid-free time! I guess it's that part of the year I get so wrapped up in getting ready for the new school year and making sure I'm prepared. I kind of have to put other things aside. Tomorrow I'm working in my classroom pretty much all day, or a least that's my plans. I need to get my pics up from our Texas Trip soon.
And yes, you still have to be logged in to comment. The spammers continue to slam me everytime I try to switch it back. ACK!

Team: Philadelphia Phillies
Position: Shortstop, short stocker
Value of card: N/A (out of stock)
Key 1994 stat: 1,254 bats put in the correct place
Kevin Stocker's train of thought upon seeing this card, 7:34 to 7:35 a.m. March 3, 1995: "You have to be kidding me. Oh, I get it. My last name is 'Stocker' so they show me stocking bats. Reeeaaalll clever. This is so amateur. They're making a mockery of my career. Hey, I'm the guy who hit .274 with two home runs last year. I don't know what other Phillies shortstop hit 11 doubles in 330 at-bats. I had at least three good plays in the field they could have shown. But, noooooo. They make a mockery of my name and my career with one photo selection. Well, maybe I should be glad my name isn't Kevin Stroker."

The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake is an odd one. Just before Rose's ninth birthday, her mom does a "practice round" with the birthday cake. That's when Rose discovers she can taste her mom's unhappiness in the cake, which makes eating it unbearable. Unfortunately for Rose, the tasting of emotions doesn't apply just to her mom's cake; it's every food and everyone. If it weren't for highly processed packaged food, Rose would have difficulty keeping herself from starving. (There's actually a funny scene where Rose has to give a presentation on something she values that her grandparents didn't have and Rose picks Doritos.) She winds up in the hospital because of an over the top reaction to her mom's food. As Rose gets older, she is better able to cope with her mysterious ability; she also discovers she's not the only one in the family. From here, the book gets even stranger as her brother, Joseph, starts disappearing (like "poof" disappearing, not the typical teenage not saying where he's going to be). While there wasn't a satisfactory explanation for any of this, Aimee Bender is an excellent writer who crafted an intriguing plot. Aiding in my reading pleasure was that mixed in with the strangeness of the family was the simple tale of Rose growing up.
