why are my baby lemons falling off?
Baby lemons are turning yellow and falling off.
Certified GKH Gardening Expert
A lemon tree goes through three periods of fruit drop during a natural thinning process. During the first phase, 70-80% of the blossoms fall off. In the second phase, which occurs a week or so later, pea-sized fruit falls from the tree. Then, later in spring, golf ball sized fruit drops.
To maximize the number of fruit on your tree, you just need to ensure your tree is getting the care it requires (watering, fertilizing etc.) and that it is insect free. More information on lemon tree fruit drop and lemon tree care can be found here:

Jospeh is right
Reader comment on item: Europe's Stark Options
Submitted by GWK (United States), Jan 15, 2009 at 12:15
Jos -- You are right, and if you are fully westernized in your views of freedom, liberty, pluralism, and if they are equally as westernized, this is a good thing.
However, please remember that the persistent call to jihad by "British Imams", and UBL and Zawahiri, and others in dark corners of the net, aims to enlist the "ummah" to overthrow western civilization, and to replace it with an equally wealthy, arabized, semi-theocratic "democracy". These instigators know full well that many soft-muslims won't support the jihad, but to the radicals, the soft-muslims serve a purpose, too. They camo the threat that the radicals pose.

ROS-Signaling Group
Our group belongs to the Center of Excellence of Molecular Biology of Primary Producers funded by the Academy of Finland. We are part of the Plant Stress Meta-Group at the University of Helsinki.
Our work combines plant physiology with genetics and molecular biology and concentrates on finding out how plants sense and transmit stress signals at the cellular level.
The primary focus is on understanding the signalling networks involving reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as hydrogen peroxide, superoxide, singlet oxygen and hydroxyl radical. ROS are produced by plant cells in a variety of situations. An active burst of ROS production is a common link between nearly all biotic and abiotic stresses including ozone and pathogens but ROS also play important roles during development. Previously thought to be merely damaging agents, ROS are now understood for their roles as signalling molecules.
To study ROS signalling we use ozone (O3) as a tool. Unlike other stimuli and stresses, O3 can be conveniently used to produce apoplastic ROS without direct manipulation of the plant.
We had the pleasure to see (21.07.2015) the CRK story published online in PLOS Genetics journal and seeing our paper advertised nicely at PLOS Genetics homepage.

TAIPEI (Taiwan News) -- Video surfaced yesterday (March 12) on the Taiwanese Facebook group Baofei Gongshe (爆廢公社) of a foreign skateboarder recklessly grabbing onto a bus to hitch a ride in Hsinchu City, driving Taiwanese netizens into a frenzy and grabbing the attention of the police.
The Taiwanese netizen who posted the video online says that he shot the footage on Guangfu Road in front of National Tsing Hua University in northern Taiwan's Hsinchu City, reported ETtoday. In the video, a man who appears to be a foreign national, grabs onto the rear bumper of a Kuo-Kuang bus as he rides his skateboard wearing only a pair of trousers, a short-sleeve shirt and a backpack.
In response to the post, one Taiwanese netizen said, "Energy saving and carbon reduction starts with you and me." However, many netizens were less than amused:
"When it hits the brakes won't you smash into it?"
"Once the thing goes uphill it's game over."
"When you want to commit suicide, don't cause harm to the driver, OK?"
"Skateboards have no business being on the road in the first place."
"It would be funny if he loses his grip and falls under the bus."
The video also attracted the attention of the police, who said that because the video is only 7 seconds in length and the facial features of the skateboarder are not clear, they checked surveillance cameras in the area to get a better look. They then found that the man started hanging onto the bus at Guangfu Road and held on until he got to Jingcheng Road, a distance of about 1.5 kilometers.
Police said that his act was in violation of Article 81 of the "Act Governing the Punishment of Violation of Road Traffic Regulations" (道路交通管理處罰條例), which states that "climbing, mounting or jumping on moving vehicles" is punishable with a fine of NT$500 (US$17).
Police say that as the features of the man were unclear in the videos, and there was no "license plate number" (車牌號碼) visible on the skateboard, they have yet to confirm the identity of the man. Police urged the public not to defy the law by grabbing onto vehicles in this way, as it not only violates the law but it also may cause serious accidents.

Steroid eye drops are typically administered in the treatment of various eye ailments that include dry eyes and arthritis flare-ups within the eye. Steroids work in the same way that cortisol, a natural body substance, works. In a nutshell, cortisol is responsible for controlling inflammation when you have an eye disease. It also prevents scarring after surgeries or possible eye injuries.
Ophthalmic steroids are eye medications specially formulated for eye treatment containing corticosteroids or simply steroids. These steroids aid in curing inflammation and relieving symptoms of swelling, redness, pain, or irritation. They are usually used after the occurrence of an eye injury or surgery.
Examples of ophthalmic steroids include:
For those who are allergic to loteprednol or have any kind of viral, bacterial or fungal eye infection, this medicine is not recommended. Furthermore, treatment with Lotemax should be discontinued after two days if there are no signs of improvement. Consult your doctor if you experience Lotemax side effects which include vision disturbance, burning, stinging, or severe pain sensations when using the eye drops.
A Lotemax alternative is:
Prednisolone Acetate
Prednisolone ac 1 eye drop is a sterile eye medication used in the treatment of inflammatory conditions arising from infections, surgery, and injury. It is also effective in controlling swelling caused by bacterial infections.
Even though it's generally believed that steroid eye drops don't pose any serious health problems if used properly, they do, however, have side effects – both minor and major.
Minor Side Effects
Steroid eye drops can cause minor side effects or allergic reactions. Burning or stinging sensations, metallic taste, and blurred vision are all possible minor side effects. Allergic reactions may include redness, swelling or itching of the eyes. In extreme allergy cases, there could be breathing problems requiring immediate medical attention.
Here are some other important facts to know about using steroid eye drops:
1. Steroid use may lead to the formation of cataracts
Major side effects of cataract formation may be rare but not non-existent. Steroid eye drops have the potential to form sub-capsular cataracts due to long-term steroid use. Cataracts are an eye condition that lead to your eye lens becoming opaque. The result of this opacity is reduced vision. When this happens, the only way to treat or remedy the situation involves undergoing cataract surgery to remove the opaque lens and replace it with an intraocular lens.
In the U.S., cataracts affect more than 24 million people aged 40 and above. However, it is not clear just how many of these people had been using eye steroids prior to developing cataracts.
2. Steroids may lower ocular immune response leading to infection
Steroid usage tends to suppress the body's natural immune response leading to dormant fungal or viral eye infections gaining activity. Any signs of pain or vision disturbance could very well indicate an upcoming infection. Therefore, see a doctor as soon as possible if your eyes feel odd.
3. Steroids may lead to high intraocular eye pressure
Glaucoma, often described as having high intraocular eye pressure, is a serious eye ailment that often has no symptoms. For some people, steroid eye drops cause an increase in eye pressure leading to glaucoma. Glaucoma is particularly disastrous because it leads to irreparable damage of the optic nerve and, if not treated, could cause permanent loss of vision.
4. Steroid use needs to be tapered off properly
Steroid eye drops, if used for a long time, need to be tapered off properly. This means if you have been taking them regularly and consistently for a period of time, you can't just stop using them suddenly because you think you're already feeling better. Follow your doctor's advice and taper off steroid medication gradually if you don't want a recurrence of the condition you are being treated for.
5. Follow your doctor's advice concerning steroids
Make sure you follow the correct dosage instructions and keep your doctor's appointments while using this type of medication. Be well-informed of potential steroid eye drop side effects before they cause any serious eye damage. With this said, it's also important that you don't start using steroids without proper consultation with an ophthalmologist or optometrist. Just because you can purchase this medication over-the-counter doesn't mean you should just use it as you please.
Use steroids for their designated purpose for best results
Topical steroids can be very beneficial if properly prescribed for the prevention of vision conditions, inflammation, and ensuring comfort in wearing contact lenses. In order to get the best results from this medication, it is imperative that you use it as recommended.

A few passing showers couldn't dampen our spirits as the SKILLS community came together for our annual picnic on August 30.
Staff and the people we support made the trip from St. Albans, Waterville, Skowhegan, Newport and the surrounding towns to the SKILLS Memorial Park at Pittsfield Community Supports.
A couple of new friends joined us this year. Lori Lefferts, Director of HR, brought her miniature horse Fregley along for everyone to meet. And DJ Johnny spun tunes for the crowd. DJ Johnny aka John Pierce is a staff member at Ervin Community Supports. When the leadership team learned that he DJ's in his spare time, they invited him to share his talents at the picnic.
While some things change, others stay the same. Everyone enjoyed the food and the company. As usual, the dunk tank was a popular hit.
But the picnic is more than a chance to dunk the Executive Director, it's also a chance to remember those we've lost over the past year.
In a re-imagining of a tradition, our balloon release was replaced with an environmentally friendly butterfly release. Crystal Temple, Senior Finance Specialist, had been taking care of the butterflies for the last 24-hours to keep them healthy until it was time for them to fly.
Before the release, Stephanie read the popular poem "I am Always With You." She also read the names of the seven members of the SKILLS family who passed away this year:
When the butterflies were released some leapt from their box. Others lingered to land on the friends and family gathered there.
Returning to the food and fun was all the better since we knew that those who had passed away were with us in spirit.

Drive Concept In Sport Psychology
June 16, 2019
A have a look at the competing nations, sports and 'colonial legacy' of one of many world's biggest multisport occasions. As effectively, excessive players can buy components from other weapons and build themselves something utterly unique. In truth, have a look at the roster of nearly any Major League Baseball team, and you'll find many of the most gifted players coming from Latin American nations.
In an effective sports group there must be belief between staff mates, belief between the coach and gamers and individual athletes have to belief themselves and their own talents. And with the climate permitting the sport to played nearly yr round, it's no wonder that these international locations are producing so many gamers for M.L.B.
A tennis match is taking place within the open air mostly while the basketball matches happen only in sport halls. Whether or not it's the young soccer participant who decides to make a vicious tackle towards the defender whose play have been irritating him all recreation, or watching archive protection of the legendary Lawrence Taylor sacking another Quarterback.
Most athletes come across conditions where they suffer main injuries due to which they're unable to play for lengthy. The perfect groups thrive on glorious teamwork and communication, and can always be coordinated in their efforts to survive and take out the other players.
For athletes throughout an occasion, water's essential function is to interchange the water misplaced in sweat. Area hockey is performed either on grass or hard pitches, while ice hockey, the fastest of all crew games, is played on an indoor ice rink.

Give In to Win
So many addicts and alcoholics believe that if they get sober, they are giving up or failing. What addicts and alcoholics don't realize, is that they've been fighting a losing battle for a long time. No matter what a person tries to do, or thinks will be different, addiction will always win. The only way a person can beat the disease, is if they don't pick up a drink or a drug, no matter what.
It is said that you must surrender if you want to get clean and sober. Wave the white flag, stop fighting, etc. If you want to roll with these phrases, know that waving the white flag doesn't mean defeat, it means you are willing to join the winning side. Yes, getting sober is joining the winning side, but you have to know and remember that addiction will beat you every time. Only the lucky ones know and remember this. Any time a drink or a drug sounds like a good idea, if you keep in mind the absolute devastation that will follow, you may just make it.
The delusion of all addicts and alcoholics is that the next time it will be different. This is not, and never has been true. It's delusional thinking at its finest. The only way picking up a drink or a drug "this time" will be different, is that it will be worse—much worse. Luckily for you, you don't have to find this out the hard way. Take a good, honest look at yourself, and ask the question, "Am I giving in, or trying something new?" If you want your life to be different, give in and take a new path. You gave the other direction a solid try and it didn't work. It's time to try something new, and see what happens.
You don't have to struggle with addiction any longer. The Serenity Recovery Center can help you come off drugs or alcohol safely, comfortably, and as painlessly as possible. Addiction is a losing battle if you keep feeding it. Stop the madness, and give us a call. We are available 24/7 toll-free at (844-339-6964). You can recover, and your life can change.

Manitoulin Capitalizes on Trend to Homeland Cruising
by Margo Little
The port of Little Current on Manitoulin Island is benefitting from a renaissance in Great Lakes cruising. To cater to the growing demand for marine and onshore adventures, the town is planning a multi-million improvement project.
According to travel industry insiders, many Americans are turning to "homeland cruising" as an alternative to travelling to unstable ports elsewhere in the world. Promoters of the cruise ship industry in Northeastern Manitoulin and the Islands (NEMI) believe this trend will have a significant impact on the local economy.
Wayne Whymark, president of the NEMI community development corporation says, "As more visitors come to Little Current and the Northshore, word will spread about the world class natural attractions our area has to offer."
As an expression of its confidence in the booming cruise ship industry, NEMI has embarked on an $11 million marina upgrade project. The town has set aside $1.7 million in reserve for the waterfront re-development. Part of the long term plan includes a multi-use cruise ship pier budgeted at $800,000.
"This initiative touches all of Manitoulin Island," according to Bruce O'Hare, operator of Lakeshore Excursions. "The 2004 season will see a total of 20 separate visits to Little Current, making this port one of the most popular destinations on the entire Great Lakes. The visits represent in excess of 3,000 passengers."
O'Hare, a tour guide for a variety of Island attractions, says most of the ships arrive in September and October. Since the fall traditionally sees a downturn in tourism, the influx of American and European visitors is a definite boost for local merchants.
Analysts estimate that a typical passenger spends about $80 (U.S) at each destination point. "These are customers we would never get if they didn't come by cruise ship," O'Hare said. "They sample the area and if they like it, they come back."
Little Current is a member of the Great Lakes Cruise Coalition, an international organization which encourages tour operators to include Great Lakes ports on their itineraries. "The future growth of cruising on the Great Lakes looks good," said Stephen Burnett, GLCC executive director.
This year the newly launched 106 passenger Orion will make a maiden voyage to Manitoulin. In addition, the 400 passenger mv Columbus, the 90 passenger Le Levant and the 100 passenger Nantucket Clipper will return to NEMI.

Minesh and Kalika are a long distance couple and it was one of the things that I could relate to with my relationship. It was even more relatable that Minesh was from Canada and Kalika was from England. I suggested that we do an engagement shoot in England to get something different and a few months later we were in England together. Here's a quick Teaser of a couple of the images from a shoot we did at Wollaton Hall in Nottingham. This estate may look familiar to many of you as it was used as the backdrop for Wayne Manor in the Nolan Batman films.
The day we had scheduled was pouring rain but it gave us warmer tones outside and fewer people on the grounds so we could go around the estate without being interrupted. The greenhouse was absolutely beautiful. It's filled with white metal poles and 8 foot rose bushes. I wanted to capture a romantic image in here contrasting Kalika's red shoes and red dress with our whites and greens.
Many of our couples come to us and say "I want to do something you've never done before for our engagement shoot!" and when they say it, I want to say "That's what I want to do for every shoot." The thing is if you want to have something unique sometimes you have to look outside what's 10 minutes from your house, leave your comfy surroundings and hop on a plane to find something that makes you say wow. Maybe you always dreamt of cuddling in front of the Eiffel tower or taking a gondola ride in the canals of Venice. Why not go for your engagement shoot?

Predstavljajte si, da bi lahko nekdo pritisnil gumb in utišal ta glas v vaši glavi, ki vam pravi, da niste dovolj dobri ali da ne morete doseči tistega, o čemer sanjate?
Ta glas prihaja iz misli, občutkov in čustev, ki jih imamo zaklenjene v svojih možganih in ki nam preprečujejo verjeti, da imamo lahko življenje, za katero smo vedno mislili, da je mogoče.
Access barsi lahko pomagajo pri odpravljanju umskega klepeta, prevzetosti, omejujočih misli ter elektromagnetnega naboja in občutkov, ki nas zadržujejo in ohranjajo zataknjene.
Vsaka seansa je drugačna. Tisto, kar ljudje najpogosteje poročajo, je, da je prisoten občutek popolne sproščenosti, bolj umirjen um, povečana energija in kreativnost.
Ne obstaja pravi ali napačen način prejemanja Access barsov (The Bars®) in vsaka seansa je drugačna. Najboljši način, da izveste, kakšni bodo Access barsi za vas, je, da jih sami preskusite.
Dobrodošli v prostor, kjer boste obnovili svoje telo IN bitje!

When someone gets behind the wheel after he or she has consumed several alcoholic beverages, there is a possibility he or she may cause an accident. Impaired driving is the cause of many car accidents on California roads. Recently, a young man was arrested after police say he caused an accident that led to the deaths of four people and injuries to several others.
Motorcycle accidents involving high speed may be deadly
A vehicle traveling at a high rate of speed is a hazard because the driver is likely not considering the risks of his or her actions and may be unable to stop in time to avoid a collision. Motorcycle accidents involving speeding cars can be deadly to the motorcyclist, who has little protection against the impact of another vehicle. One family in California is mourning the loss of a loved one who died when a speeding car struck his motorcycle.
Victims of car accidents may collect even if hit at workplace
A wrongdoer may cause a vehicular accident but at the same time get seriously injured himself. The serious injury or death of the wrongdoer will not stop the victims from their right to recover for personal injury damages. With respect to car accidents in California, the victims may make a claim for compensation for their injuries against the tortfeasor even if he is arrested due to criminal recklessness in the accident.
Man died, $10 million awarded in medical malpractice case
The incorrect administration of drugs is known to be one of the biggest areas of medical negligence in California and elsewhere. The issues that arise in such cases bring up the same questions of negligence and causation as in other medical malpractice cases. Whether any particular claim is a valid one will generally be determined after the plaintiff gets a review of the medical records and all other surrounding circumstances.

- Virgin Australia Supercars Championship
- Craig Lowndes
Craig LowndesHolden Commodore ZB
Supercars superstar Craig Lowndes bowed out of full-time competition at the end of a 2018 in which he claimed a seventh Bathurst victory.
Lowndes announced his retirement mid-year, and the balance of the season through to the Newcastle finale was a celebration of his decorated career.
He does not leave the scene – or Triple Eight – altogether, though, and will reunite with Jamie Whincup for the PIRTEK Enduro Cup.
From Formula Ford and Formula Holden, Lowndes burst onto the touring car scene in 1994 with the Holden Racing team, doing enough on debut at Sandown as a late call-up to then also replace Swede Rickard Rydell for Bathurst.
Lowndes became a household name in that Great Race, launching an audacious pass for the lead on John Bowe in the closing stages and eventually finishing second.
He made his full-time debut in 1996, taking the clean sweep of the Supercars title followed by Sandown 500 and Bathurst 1000 victories with Greg Murphy.
Pursuing his Formula 1 dream, Lowndes headed abroad in 1997 to contest International Formula 3000 but he returned home after a tough single campaign.
Two more Supercars titles with HRT followed in 1998 and '99, before he made the massive jump from the factory Holden team to Ford, with the revamped Gibson Motorsport in 2001.
After a second season with the team, which became 00 Motorsport in 2002, Lowndes was on the move again to Ford Performance Racing.
His only victory of three seasons plagued by unreliability came early, at Phillip Island in 2003.
Lowndes joined Triple Eight in 2005 and never looked back.
A fourth title proved elusive, finishing second in the championship sixth times including the controversial finish to 2006 against Rick Kelly.
Bathurst was a happier hunting ground, including a hat-trick of victories alongside Whincup that started with the 2006 race immediately after the death of Lowndes' mentor and close friend Peter Brock.
Back in a Holden following Triple Eight's brand switch, Lowndes conquered Mount Panorama again in 2010 with former HRT team-mate Mark Skaife, and in '15 and '18 with Steven Richards.
That leaves his Great Race tally at seven victories and 14 podiums entering 2019.
While Lowndes endured a winless 2017 season, he bounced back in what was his swansong, taking two wins, seven podiums and fourth in the championship.

[3DS] Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai DX
At last! We finally get Vocaloid rhythm game in English for Nintendo 3DS! One reason less to not buy the Japanese 3DS, now I'm just down with Gyakuten Saiban and Yo-kai Watch on my list. lol
Brought to you by Sega and Crypton Future Media, apparently this is the equivalent of Project Mirai Game 2 although under a different name! With a total of 48 songs (Mostly the old school ones too! I haven't been entirely up to date with the new songs so this is good for me!) and the ability to adjust to various difficulties.
Just a week after the game have been released, here's some of my thoughts on the game!
The supposed to be pre-order AR (Augmented Reality) cards! My friend got it without preordering though and because I preordered, it came a day late from another state. orz
Printed both side...!
Here's the AR Function in action! You could also preview the PV as well but I prefer watching it in game than to have them dance on real life settings.
Playable characters
Hatsune Miku
Kagamine Rin and Len
Gumi makes appearance in some PV and as a Hint/Tip cameo character! They should include Gakupoid too... orz
As with most rhythm games, tap/hold/spin at the right timing onto the target!
Touch (Tap with the pen) Mode versus the Button Mode!
* Dress up chosen partner with the PV clothing. Minor colour customising could be done! Look out for Event / limited time only items which you could place into the room!
* Hang out with the chosen partner by feeding / playing Mikuversi / give allowance (Reminds me of a Himo... lol).
* There's also Puyo Puyo 39!, but it seems like the term Miku is used more than Vocaloid or Mirai.
* Go out and shop to your hearts content with Mirai points earned. AR for using the cards and snap away, Theater for viewing the music videos, Dance studio to create your own dance routines for each PV is also available.
* Create your own tune (Could be used as alarm set up) and share on the spot pass!
* Leave messages within the PV songs just like Nico Nico Douga! They also allow the share comment function so you could obtain messages from other players too!
* Customise your profile card and decorate it with different partner poses, backgrounds pictures and taglines. You also have the option to share your dance routines, video comments, and your tune.
* Try everything in the game and change all partners and use all rooms to get more stamps for unlocking items!
* Do check out the News when it have the exclamation mark! It normally indicate something important, such as items unlocked, sales and also limited time only stuffs!
* Buy clothing / items that are on sale to save Mirai points! As every points goes towards the clothing pool.
* Give each partner allowance. At most times they spree on food (meaning wasted) but other times when you give them enough allowance, they would order clothing at discounted prices too!
* Try to clear all hard modes to unlock background for the Profile cards!
* Try to play all songs at least once to unlock the last song Shake it!, where you will see the credits. After the credit you could start playing the song.
Compare to other Vocaloid games on other consoles, it is easier than any PS version! Nintendo always have lower difficulties due to the market! Perhaps because it was second game on DS, there was a lack of tutorial (Particularly with the Spinning for extra Mirai points!). There were minimal pointer that appears during the gameplay, but for someone who haven't played the first game prior have to learn what they are. This aspect I do appreciate sometimes (provided they're not lengthy or giving us the skip tutorial function) and I got it from Final Fantasy Curtain Call.
They sleep when you set the alarm!
I love how the room items could be shared among different Vocaloid partner you choose. XD I only wish the clothing could be shared too (Then there could be more variation such as changing the hairstyles, just like that for Nendoroid figurines!), because they could totally do it for Rin and Len! haha I wish there was more Vocaloid fan reference things... like Banana for Len, Mikan for Rin, Maguro (Tuna) for Luka... although they did have Luka Taco version!
I love how there's the lyrics for the PVs as well, although you really can't really read them during the gameplay. XD Pity they didn't include translation for non Japanese speaking players, but I note it's written all in romaji which is handy for Karaoke. XD
With the other extra functions where you could customise the dance routines, safeguards etc... I only wish there's a guide to the Dance/poses! To be honest I don't think alot of people would bother. It might be interesting for the first few changes trials, after that should just be playing on various difficulties and earn more stamps.
Apart from the rhythm game aspect, it's much like Tomodachi life where you get to hang out with the chosen partner or even go on a holiday! I'm surprised there isn't any DLC! Perhaps we'll see game 3 instead of added on contents. Definitely worth while getting particularly if you're a rhythm game fan! Bonus if you're a Vocaloid fan too! XD

Long time ago in the mists of time (early 80's) we used to polish off the plating on ordinary fuses and yes we felt it made a difference. Rediscovered this when removing the plug on amps that are going for sale soon. This fuse was polished around 1981 and has not tarnished much if any. Photo may not do justice to shine
Try it and comment, I think I used Brasso

Bridge over troubled water
this is my post for yesterday
it was a good morning, bloggin, getting things sorted and talking to ben about how to do an animation project that i wanted to to after the DMlabs is over.
Started playing with code in processing, which was fascinating and made me realise that code is lots of small bits of code that can be bolted together. i got really really excited. but then…..
nothing worked. I wanted to try out the two ideas i had had the day before, daisy world rip off and the traveling thought landscape of scale however, wix (the flash template program i was going to use for the landscape idea) would not load, so i tried to use flash and that just confused me. Then i tried to load a gaming platform so that i could try out my daisy world idea from the day before, but the Internet security would not allow me to try register the free demo, so i only managed to do that this morning only to be told that my laptop (held together with sellotape) was not powerful enough to run the program. grrr….
a very very, very frustrating day. I woke up this morning wondering if i should touch base with dave lynch and ask him if i should just make a plan of how i could do my animation (that could have a touch screen interface moving you though angles and time) for the end of week show. When i just spoke to him he just said, why not do a quick version of the animation so that you can use it again.
good idea dave. you are a bridge over troubled water and it is always worth touching base with you

Here's something many directors forget about Anton Chekhov's "Uncle Vanya."
The classic 1899 drama about Russian sad-sacks can be very funny.
"It's not a tragedy," said Roy Fluhrer, who is directing the show for the Warehouse Theatre.
"There's a lot of comedy in the play, and you'll see it," he said.
"Uncle Vanya" opens at the Warehouse on Friday, Jan. 29 for 14 performances through Feb. 20.
The play centers on a professor who returns to his countryside home with his new, younger wife. His desire to sell the old house creates an uproar among his relatives, forcing everyone to consider their former aspirations and dashed hopes.
"It's provincial Russia," Fluhrer said. "It's banal, it's boring. People don't know what to do with themselves. Their lives are falling apart.
"But Chekhov did not want the play to be performed tragically," Fluhrer added. "It was not to be played solemn-faced, with characters stumbling around with ennui."

There's an episode (possibly the last) where Quark notes how hard it is to be the one's staying behind and I wanted to capture that look on Quark's face as he thinks about his friends and family out in the middle of the war.
I am also very excited to open up the preorders for this series of Dominion War Fan Art Sketch Cards. It seems appropriate to do so on Quark's card LOL but you can now preorder the set (it's another limited run – I also just this minute realised I don't own a set of the Women in Trek cards?!?).

Do You Have What It Takes
Taking Advantage of Training
A big shout out to all the Blues who have taken advantage of opportunities to improve their skills through camps and clinics this spring. These events have included but are not exclusive to the Jack Reynolds 3 man evaluation weekend, Slow Pitch Advanced Camp and the SMSUA 3 umpire training sessions.
Slow pitch advanced camp was a great success with the following SMSUA umpires in attendance. Graig Bolton, Russ Cantonwine, Tim Coffey, Kayleen Dunson, Max Escalante, Bill Foreman (won his registration fee at last year's Banquet!), Josh Francis, Kris Mack, Lou McCaffery, Rich Schultz, Kerry Steichen, CJ Webb, and Sean Wells. Any umpires with questions on slow pitch umpiring I'm sure that any of these umpires will be happy to answer them.
Did you know that we have all kinds of training information on the website as well? You can log in then go to the training and mechanics page to view great presentations on two umpire mechanics, three umpire mechanics, angles/distances, line up management and much more. Plus! If there is something you want access to that is not on there please let us know and we will do our best to get the information to you.
Take 3 Steps!
It's a simple challenge: TAKE THREE STEPS into the infield when you are working behind the plate. PERIOD. Umpires – this isn't hard, but too many of us aren't doing it – and our customers are noticing.
The number one gripe I hear from every league is:
"The umpires NEVER move out from behind home plate."
Umpires: We need to change this. So here is your challenge: TAKE THREE STEPS. Take at least three steps INTO THE INFIELD to make calls at first, second and third base.
SLOW PITCH and JV HIGH SCHOOL UMPIRES – you are working 1-umpire mechanics. You have to make calls at ALL THE BASES. The absolute WORST place to make a call at 1st, 2nd, or 3rd base is behind home plate. It's BAD, NO GOOD, DON'T EVER STAND THERE (unless there is a runner at third coming home).
This is serious business. Getting out from behind home plate should be standard procedure for all umpires so I've developed a plan to help us all remember how to do this.
Umpires, Your UIC is full of warm fuzzy "thank yous" to give out. She's happiest when she's bragging about how absolutely wonderful you are and how she had absolutely NOTHING to do with it.
But she also cares enough about the leagues we serve and the quality of umpires we put out there to make a serious commitment to quality when it's needed. It's needed now. Please.TAKE THREE STEPS into the infield to make your calls.
Kayleen Dunson
Seattle ASA Umpire In Chief
Are You Checking Bats?
We all should be checking to make sure bats are legal before each game we do.
All bats should have the ASA approved certification mark for 2000 or 2004 and be free of burrs, dents, cracks and rattles.
Check out this handy "Quick Guide" on how to inspect bats. The ASA website is the best place to go for more resources. Here's a link to the one-page color list of bats that HAVE the 2000 or 2004 stamp but have become "Non-Approved." This is a handy reference guide you should print out and keep with you when you do your games.
Hope this helps to refresh your "bat check skills" and make it easier for all of us to check bats every game.
Get Regional Clinic Presentations
What an amazing learning experience!
Thank you to all of the fantastic clinicians who gave so much of their time and expertise to help make all of us in Region 15 better umpires.
Nearly 250 umpires gathered for a great weekend of learning, building relationships and having some great fun. The head umpires from ASA in the United States, Softball Canada, and the International Softball Federation engaged everyone with their expert knowledge and creativity.
We are especially thankful to the great contingent of umpires from up north who treated us to a rousing rendition of their National Anthem as well as sharing their thoughtful expertise and fun!
We're working on a complete Clinic update, but until then here is access to some of the presentations:

Thank you to all Clinicians, all staff who helped make this so successful and especially to ALL THE WOMEN AND MEN IN BLUE who attended.
School Ball Rules Changes Here
All high school and middle school games are governed by the National Federation of High Schools (NFHS) Rules. Although there aren't many significant changes to the rules or mechanics this year, Gerald St.Clair went through some of the more significant changes for the members at the February 6 meeting.
If you missed that meeting, or want to refresh what you learned there, check out this slideshow that includes all of Gerald's slides.
If we can help you with more or better training tools, please let us know.
Free training programs for all members
Whether you've been umpiring for 30 years or 30 minutes, SMSUA offers top-notch training. We promise to work with all of our umpires to prepare them to reach the highest level they want to work.
We have lots of umpires who are happy working the recreational and young ages. And we have some umpires who have worked the highest levels (college world series, Olympics, and International).
Whatever your umpiring goals, our training program will help you meet them.
If you are just joining the umpire family, click here to learn about our free training for new umpires.
We look forward to seeing you on the field soon!
Answers to Uniform Questions
The standard uniform for most of the games we umpire is pretty easy to remember: a powder-blue shirt, black belt, gray pants and black shoes. When you're doing a plate game you'll also need a blue or gray ball bag. If it's cold, you can wear the navy blue jacket.
Here are some common questions about uniforms:
Do I have to wear a t-shirt under my uniform? What color should it be?
You do not have to wear a t-shirt under your uniform. If you do wear a t-shirt, wear white under the powder blue shirt and navy under the navy shirt.
Can I wear the long-sleeve uniform even if my partner is wearing short sleeves?
If my partner is wearing a jacket do I have to wear a jacket?
If my partner is wearing a navy blue shirt can I wear my powder blue shirt?
No. You must be dressed in the same color uniform. Powder blue is the default uniform, so if you can't decide, go with powder.
Can I wear a white t-shirt under my navy blue shirt?
No. You must wear a navy blue t-shirt under the navy blue uniform.
Can I wear my shin guards over my pants?
No. That just looks silly.
Can I umpire in shorts?
Yes you can umpire in shorts – for SLOW PITCH only. Shorts must be navy or heather gray.
Does it matter what color ball bag I wear?
No. You can wear a navy or gray ball bag.
Will I have to buy navy pants?
The standard uniform for SMSUA is gray pants so we will not require you to buy navy. Some umpire organizations use navy pants as the standard uniform and if you travel to those organizations you may need to purchase navy pants.

Keno 707
Those that love keno are likely to be familiar with bingo as well. The game keno originated from China and is based on bingo. To win, players need to be on 15 numbers that they think will land. They place their bets and then the draw can start to happen. Those that manage to get enough numbers will find themselves raking in the cash. The only problem is deciding whether or not that win will come in before the bank roll is drained to zero!

Seminar 217, Risk Management: The coordination of centralised and distributed generation
Seminar | January 29 | 11 a.m.-12:30 p.m. | 1011 Evans Hall
Speakers: Matteo Basei, UC Berkeley
Consortium for Data Analytics in Risk
We analyse the interaction between centralised carbon-emissive technologies and distributed non-emissive technologies. A representative consumer can satisfy her electricity demand by investing in solar panels and by buying power from a centralised firm. We consider the point of view of the consumer, the firm and a social planner, formulating suitable McKean-Vlasov control problems with stochastic coefficients. First, we provide explicit formulas for the production strategies which minimise the costs. Then, we look for an equilibrium price. Joint work with René Aid and Huyen Pham.

Digital Marketing Strategy: Reaching Millennials
Oftentimes, we hear digital marketers complain about the difficulty of reaching millennials. Maybe, it's not the millennials' problem after all.
According to Danielle Brown, the vice president of marketing at Points, millennials develop brand loyalty if they feel that they are appreciated and valued. Some people say that this trait is what makes millennials entitled. But, contrary to popular belief, this is what makes most people loyal to a brand, not just millennials. But first, who are the millennials?
The Millennials
A number of sources differ from the age limit set to be called a millennial, saying that it ranges from 1980 – mid-1990s or even up to 2000s. However, the shared experiences and historical events of a generation is much more important than the exact borders for a generation's age.
But, the millennial generation, in general, has a wide scope and is very diverse. Let's say they are now aged 18 to 35. Just imagine the kind of music the older millennials listen to as compared to the younger generation. Each subgroup of this generation has a certain focus wherein another might not relate to. So when planning your online marketing strategy, it's best that you target a specific age group.
Despite the differences in experience, what characterises millennials is their generation of tech-savvy digital natives.
On average, millennials spend about 223 minutes online using mobile devices and a total of 242 minutes using desktop or tablets, daily. Another source said that an affluent millennial in the US spends about 7.5 hours.
But the question on everybody's mind is that, why are millennials so hard to reach?
For starters, millennials are more discerning when it comes to buying products. Why so? They are now aware of traditional marketing and those hard-sell advertisements. Now, they seek more information about the product so giving superficial information won't work on them. Also, there is a wide array of services to choose from which they could search using their mobile phones. Meaning, the competition of brands is quite rough out there.
In addition, 34% of millennials have a bachelor's degree or higher. As a result, millennials are more likely to question everything. So, it is not a surprise that millennials are "hard to reach" audiences.
As the baby boomers are starting to retire, the millennials are emerging as the primary workforce and spenders for the years to come, especially in 2020. So, how can you tap into this large market?
Reach Millennials by Going Digital While Staying Relevant
By default, most digital marketers say that to reach millennials, you must go online. That's true. As reflected by the number of hours spent on the internet, it's really surprising if you don't tap the online market to reach millennials.
The most used (and sometimes abused) digital marketing strategy to reach this demographic is through social media. Facebook, especially, is crawling with brands competing for attention.
With that oversaturation of advertisements, it's a good idea to start planning your digital marketing strategy on other growing social media sites such as Twitter, Pinterest, and LinkedIn, among others. However, what should be the ultimate goal of every brand's digital marketing plan is to create original content that generates engagement. Don't just be another clutter in the social media landscape. Be relevant. But how? Continue reading to find out.
How to Engage With Millennials?
It is hard relying on likes and shares to gauge brand loyalty, especially when some millennials like or share just because they felt touched or because of some discounts. It is definitely a sound strategy, but it lacks loyalty retention.
What you can do is to keep meaningful engagement with them as you send out updates regarding your product information, special offers, and other promos. Such meaningful engagement can include special offers for returning customers and giving incentives for brand advocacy. Doing this can be a way to show customer appreciation and overall care.
Inviting audience interaction is also a way to keep your customers an active and engaging commenter or sharer, especially in the age where everything interesting is shared. Take this to your advantage by telling them to comment their thoughts or send photos using your brand, for instance.
As mentioned earlier, millennials also tend to trust brands with overall pleasant customer service. Being present online means that your social media page is now the primary channel for immediate customer service and feedbacks. Maintaining a high response rate in social media and you'll see how it affects your brand's fans.
But do note that quality customer service comes hand in hand with product quality, price, and convenience.
How to Maintain Brand Loyalty
Maintaining brand loyalty can be hard, especially if there are a lot of brands competing for each customer's attention. One thing you can do is to make millennials your brand ambassador. Having an influencer that is within the same age bracket of your target audience provides an easier way to attract audiences.
What drives most millennials these days is having the ability to express themselves through brands. Some even say they are quite egoistic, especially with the boom of the "selfie" culture. But having someone or a brand influence them, especially those looking for inspiration during their coming-of-age, can increase brand loyalty.
Consider how your brand says something about the consumers themselves. How does your brand help consumers express themselves? Let that be a guiding question for your next online marketing campaign.
If you're still not convinced, you can read our article explaining how social media influencers and bloggers can help your brand grow.
How to Keep Content Relevant
After all, the core component of attracting millennials all boils down to content. We cannot deny the fact that millennials tend to ignore posts that aren't striking enough. That's why it is important to use creative and dynamic content. This ranges from texts, images, videos, GIFs, or whatever satisfies their need for information and entertainment.
Some brands tend to rely on viral postings, but be sure that your being viral is for a good cause. As much as possible, steer away from the notion that bad publicity is still publicity. Remember, your building your brand image here. It's extremely easy to go from a hundred to zero when something in social media goes wrong.
So, the key is to create an original and relatable content that provides a unique experience while giving them both entertainment and information. If you're looking for creative content creators with a niche for travel and real estate, we got you covered.
Tracking the Millennial's Actions
After planning your digital marketing strategy and actually implementing it, next comes data and performance analysis. iRiver Asia specialises in gathering, analysing, and interpreting data for the overall improvement of your page. We can even provide you with the statistics of your competitor to know how well you are doing in the competition.
For more information about this, don't hesitate to contact us.
So, are millennials hard to win over? Well, the answer is yes. With the plethora of brands in social media, you can't say that millennials can stay loyal to your brand and to your brand alone. It's hard to reach millennials, but you can elevate both brand loyalty and sales through these strategies.
To recap, you must have engaging content that satisfies the need for both entertainment and information. Second, you must have a complete package of excellent customer service as well as competitive pricing, quality, and shopping convenience. Lastly, you must have the means to measure your performance.
Now that you know the basics, we hope that you have a clearer picture of how to target millennials.

ThinkbinderPosted: March 21, 2012 Filed under: Web tools | Tags: chat, collaboration, feed, files, freetech4teachers, thinkbinder, whiteboard Leave a comment
Probably I saw this on FreeTech4Teachers, but regardless of the source, I decided to check out ThinkBinder as a tool for my school tech committee.
After signing up, I took it for a spin as much as I could sitting at my parents' computer. I really like the tools and interface. The top navigation area is general for groups, messages, etc.
Within the thinkbinder window, there are tabs for feed, files, whiteboard, and search. In the feed window, there are sort by and posting tools. The whiteboard brings up a collaborative whiteboard, and the files window allows for adding files. Binder settings and the chat pane are located to the right. It is a very clean interface that should be a fun place to organize my tech group around what we need to do for the rest of the year. I have tried out the binder button I added to the browser, and it works like a charm. It allows for comments and tags. I even played with the video chat option. Lots of power in a very simple interface.
I could do the same through any number of collaborative suites and even Google Docs, but I just felt like trying something new.
