Faster Times with the Best Car Shipping Company from Washington to Oklahoma
Washington to Oklahoma car shipping routes are considered among some of the most difficult to navigate, not only because of the dense Midwest traffic and the large distance to cover, but also because of the changing climate and unexpected driving impediments often associated with both states.
As delivery times tend to vary just as much as the car shipping costs that each transport service demands, it can be difficult to find a trusted company, and many people even tend to believe that its faster and more convenient to drive all the way to Oklahoma instead of shipping their vehicles.
Is It Faster to Drive or Ship Your Car?
How much does it cost to transport a vehicle from Washington to Oklahoma with average car shipping services, and is it actually faster to just drive your car to the destination yourself? These are some of the most pressing questions that people looking for a reliable car transport solutions have been asking.
The fact is, however, that not only can a road trip be up to $400 more expensive than a vehicle transport broker or carrier service, but there are several good reasons why you might be better off with a shipping company:
- First, there is all the hassle of planning your trip and taking time off from work and family matters. If youre in the middle of moving home to Oklahoma, you may lose even more time because of your unforeseen road trip.
- There are more than 2,000 miles from Washington to Oklahoma, car shipping costs not even getting close to matching the time and money youd have to spend on proper meals, accommodation and taking care of fuel, oil changes and various expenses that you cant really plan for.
- If youre not a professional driver and you dont have experience in handling long road trips, you may find yourself lost or having to double back to avoid road blocks and other problems that are often found in Washington, Oregon and Idaho, especially in the wintertime.
A Quick and Convenient Car Shipping Process
By contacting out representatives, here at American Auto Move, you can quickly get rid of all these problems by hiring a fast and reliable vehicle transport carrier to handle your delivery.
After getting a free quote and booking your transport a couple of days in advance, you will not only benefit from the best car shipping company from Washington to Oklahoma. You can also track the progress of your vehicle and plan accordingly, organizing all your tasks with the utmost accuracy, to make the most of the time you have at your disposal for handling any other pressing matters.

Italian sex tour model Paola Saulino now plans a 'bigger and better world mission' starting in the US
The beauty has revealed she has been flooded with invites from men living all over the world
AN Italian model who launched a sex tour to thank men who voted 'no' in a referendum on constitutional reforms is now heading to America.
Paola Saulino, 27, infamously pleasured around 'politically-active' 700 men during her outrageous Pompa (Pump) Tour of her homeland.
The vote which decided the future of Italy's constitution resulted in a crushing defeat for Prime Minister Matteo Renzi's 'Yes' side, throwing the country into turmoil.
But despite being targeted by trolls for fellating hundreds of strangers in 22 cities at the start of the year she is now planning to the same in the US.
Paola told the Daily Star Online she is planning bigger and "better" Pompa Tours across the globe after being flooded with invites.
And first up will be some Trumpy Pumpy in the United States of America.
She said: "Of course I will do a third tour.
"I just need to earn some money. I want to plan another Pompa Tour better.
"I want to go to America – but people from all over the world have invited me. Chile, Turkey, Belgium, everywhere; I can't wait to travel."
There are an estimated 17.8 million Italian-Americans living in the States, around six per cent of the population.
Although many don't have dual citizenship, Paola is calling on all Italian-Americans who voted 'no' in the referendum last November to come forward and join her "movement".
If enough people contact her she vows to head out to America this summer.
She said: " Pompa Tour is a movement. No one can stop it. It's much more than a f****** blowjob."
Paolo was born in Naples, expressing her support for Napoli football team in one of many revealing photos on her Instagram page.

Direct messaging & CloudEngine 1.1.0 beta
From the CloudEngine blog.
I'm happy to say that last Wednesday (2nd February) my colleague Richard Lovelock put the new direct messaging function live on Cloudworks. It is something that Cloudworks users have requested and we have wanted for a while. Despite a quiet launch, it has already been taken up by the Cloudworks community. And, we're excited about its potential for fostering private discussions that can lead on to public Clouds and Cloudscapes.
Richard researched what Facebook, Linked in, Twitter and a variety of other spaces provide. He designed a system that allows private messaging between multiple participants. I'm sure you will find it quite easy and at the same time powerful to use. We are very pleased with the results – thank you Richard!
After you log in to Cloudworks, you will see a link labelled Messages in the main navigation menu. The message main-page or inbox page summarises your discussions and who was the last to reply to each thread.
The compose message page provides a neat way to search for recipients by their full name, and a list of suggestions appears as you type.
The direct messaging code is part of the open-source CloudEngine software that powers Cloudworks. You or a friendly developer can now download CloudEngine 1.1 Beta, and find out how to create your own social network. Full documentation for direct messaging is on the Wiki.
There are numerous enhancements and fixes in CloudEngine 1.1 Beta, including a handy new maintenance mode to ease system administration. And, we have implemented the new HTML5 form attributes for validation, initially on the registration form. This is most visible on Firefox 4 beta, and Opera 9.6 onwards. We will be improving other forms and integrating HTML5 form emulation for other browsers as time permits.
I'll be at Dev8D in London next week and happy to talk more about what we're doing with CloudEngine and Cloudworks, and how you can get involved
So there you have it. Major new functionality is available on Cloudworks, and we have a new Beta release of CloudEngine. Enjoy!

The Unique Features of Fungi
Chapter 1
Fungi are composed of microscopic, tube-like structures called hyphae (singular hypha) which grow on substrates such as leaf litter, fallen timber and herbivore dung. The hypha has the shape of a cylindrical tube of even diameter with a tapering tip that branches subapically, with each branch having a tip of its own. By iteration of this modular unit comprising of a tip and a subapical branch (Figure 1.1), a radiating system of hypha called the mycelium is formed (Carlile, 1995). At places, hyphae become interconnected by short lateral outgrowths, bringing the entire mycelium into a protoplasmic continuity. The mycelium spreads over and penetrates into the substratum, secreting digestive enzymes which decompose the polymeric constituents of the substratum and absorbing the solubilized carbon and nitrogen and the phosphorus, potassium and sulfur compounds for its growth. This mode of fungal growth is inferred from observations of fungi growing in nature and by examination of cultures grown on nutrient medium solidified with agar (Figure 1.2).
In the U.S. state of Michigan, a tree-root-infecting fungus, Armillaria bulbosa, which had colonized an extensive area of forests, was discovered (Smith et al., 1992). This fungus forms mushroom-like fruit bodies at the base of the tree trunk that are honey-colored, hence the fungus is commonly called the honey fungus. The question arose whether a wide area in the forest was infected by an individual fungus produced from a single spore but, since soil is an opaque medium, the area of spread of subterranean mycelium had to be estimated indirectly. In places, thousands of individual hyphae of this fungus aggregate and intertwine to form dark, macroscopic structures called rhizomorphs that look like shoelaces (http://helios.bto.ed.ac.uk/bto.microbes/armill.htm). The rhizomorphs have a large food base as they come out from the stump of a dead tree and are therefore able to extend through non-supportive terrain and infect roots of healthy trees (Figure 1.3). Formation of a rhizo-morph is a fungal strategy for bringing a large "starter" energy for overcoming the physical and chemical resistance of the plant host and colonizing it. Portions of rhizomorphs retrieved from the soil were placed on a nutrient agar medium to allow the mycelium to fan out. To determine if the rhizomorphs sampled from a large area of forest soil all belong to an individual fungus that developed from a single spore, an intercompatibility test was performed by pairing them in all combinations on nutrient medium in petri dishes—the rationale
Septal pore Septum Extension zone (<100 |m)

being that if the mycelial growth intermingled to form a continuous mat it would indicate that the isolates were genetically related, i.e., they belonged to an individual fungus. On the other hand, if the isolates showed a zone of aversion, i.e., an area between the paired mycelia not penetrated by hyphae (an incompatible reaction), it would indicate that they were genetically unrelated. Surprisingly, the results indicated that even though the subterranean mycelium of A. bulbosa may no longer have a continuous boundary due to the its fragmentation, the mycelial isolates belonged to an individual fungus (Figure 1.4).
The genetic relatedness of the mycelial isolates was confirmed by DNA fingerprinting method using the techniques of the restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and
random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD). Using RFLP, organisms can be differentiated from one another by analysis of patterns derived from cleavage of their DNA. If two organisms differ in the distance between sites of cleavage of a particular restriction endonuclease, the length of the resultant fragments will differ when the DNA is digested with a restriction enzyme and separated according to their size by electrophore-sis. If the pattern of DNA bands differs due to differences in their mobilities, the DNA is from different individuals. In the RAPD method, an arbitrarily designed ten-base-pair sequence is annealed to DNA isolated from the strains and a polymerase chain reaction is carried out. The product is separated on an agarose gel by electrophoresis and the pattern

of DNA fragments compared. The finding was that DNA fingerprints of fungal isolates from an extensive area were identical. It was inferred that all isolates sampled from an area approximately 15 hectares belonged to the same individual fungus.
Having ascertained the individuality of this giant fungus colony, the question arose of determining its total mass. From the average weight of the rhizomorph and their numbers in a representative area of the forest soil, it was estimated that this colony of A. bulbosa contained at least 10,000 kg of biomass. Furthermore, from the growth rate of the fungus on wooden stakes buried in the soil as well as on nutrient medium, the age of the fungal colony was estimated to be around 1500 years and this large and aged living organism may still be growing. Although less publicized, a clone of A. ostoyae discovered in Oregon has a mycelium spread over 890 hectares and is 2400 years old (http://www.anbg.gov.au/fungi/mycelium.html). Since hyphae are capable of potentially unlimited growth, fungi are regarded as immortal organisms.
1.1.3 Apical Extension and Synchronized Growth
For a fungal hypha, life is at its tip.
Early in the last century, measurements over a period of the distance between the hyphal tip and the first septum (Figure 1.1) and distances between the successive segments showed that while the former increased the latter remained constant, thereby demonstrating that the growth of hypha is confined to the tip. When 14C-labeled N-acetylglucosamine, a radioactive precursor of chitin—a structural component of the fungal cell wall—was fed to a growing mycelium and its site of incorporation in hyphae was determined by autoradiographic imaging of the whole mycelium, the incorporation of the label was observed only in the terminal region of the hypha. This observation confirmed that a very small terminal region (less than 100 ^m) is the growing region of the hypha (Wösten et al., 1991). Cell wall and even organelles in the distal region of the hypha may be broken down by controlled autolysis and the solubilized nutrients translocated to the growing tip for addition into the cell membrane and cell wall at the tip and perpetuation of its growth. The strategy of fungal growth is to keep the tip extending by the active forward movement of the protoplasm. The hallmark of hypha is its growth in one direction only, i.e., its growth is polarized. However, the mechanism by which the protoplasm is drawn toward the tip, leaving an empty tube behind, remains a mystery.
Since the directionality of growth is established at the hyphal tip, this is the likely place where clues to polarized growth of hypha could be found. A variety of approaches are being used: electron microscopy; video-enhanced microscopy of movement of green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged organelles in living hypha; fluorescence imaging of distribution of ions; micro-electrode measurement of pH along hypha; patch-clamp detection of ion channels; immunofluorescence detection of enzyme distribution; and measurement of turgor by the plasmolysis method. However, there is no understanding as yet of how the growth of hypha is polarized but some of the pertinent findings are given below.
1.1.4 Spitzenkörper
By phase contrast microscopy and vital staining of living hyphae with a membrane-selective fluorescent dye, a cluster of small vesicles with no clear boundary was observed just beneath the plasma membrane of the hyphal tip (Figure 1.5). This apical body is called

Spitzenkörper in German, and advances continuously as the hypha elongates (Figure 1.6). Video microscopy and image analysis of living hyphae showed a close correlation of Spitzenkörper trajectory and the direction of growth of the hypha (Riquelme et al., 1998). Electron microscopy of hyphal tips showed exocytosis of Golgi-derived vesicles to growing tips. From its position and behavior, the Spitzenkörper is considered to be a collection center of vesicles containing enzymes and preformed polysaccharide precursors for cell

wall synthesis, allowing their localized delivery and polarized growth of the hypha (Bartnicki-Garcia, 2002). Once the Spitzenkörper has discharged its contents, a new Spitzenkörper is reformed. The cycle of collection and discharge of vesicles is consistent with the observation that growth of fungal hypha occurs in pulses (Lopez-Franco et al., 1994). The association of the Spitzenkörper with a meshwork of microtubules and microfilaments suggests that its polarized trajectory is determined by the growing scaffolding of microtubules. Supporting this is the observation that benomyl, an inhibitor of microtubule assembly, markedly disturbed the directionality of hyphal growth of wild-type Neurospora crassa whereas a benomyl-resistant mutant was not affected.
The evidence for collection and discharge of vesicles containing membrane and cell wall precursors by the Spitzenkörper is circumstantial. However, their polarized delivery and insertion into the plasma membrane at the tip could explain the generation of hyphal shape and polarity of the hypha. The vesicle membrane and plasma membrane at the tip may have specific proteins which tether the communicating membranes very close for docking and driving their fusion as postulated in animal cells (Rothman, 1994). At the core of pairing between the fusions of vesicle with its target membranes lies an interaction between homologous vesicle and target membrane proteins called v- and t-SNARES. Using specific-antibodies, a tip-high gradient of t-SNARES in Neurospora hypha has been demonstrated (Gupta and Heath, 2002). The location of Spitzenkörper at the tip and of tip-high gradient of SNAREs may together bolster rapid apical growth of the tip.
As in the other tip-extending cells—for example, the plant root hair, pollen tube, rhizoid cell of the alga Fucus—the fungal hypha also contains a tip-high gradient of calcium ions (Levina et al., 1995). In hyphae of Saprolegnia ferax (an aquatic mold) and Neurospora crassa (a terrestrial mold), the cytosolic calcium was measured by ratio imaging emission intensities of the Ca2+-sensitive fluorescent dyes fluo-3 and fura red by confocal microscopy (Hyde and Heath, 1997; Levina et al., 1995; Silverman-Gavrila and Lew, 2000, 2001). Fluorescence emission was localized in the 10-^m region surrounding the tip of growing hyphae but not in the non-growing hyphae. Hyphal elongation was inhibited by microinjection of Ca2+
chelators, suggesting that the tip-high gradient of free calcium is required for tip growth due to an unknown mechanism.
Hyphae are generally 5 to 10 ^m in diameter. This implies that a hypha has a large surface area in relation to the total mass of protoplasm. The large surface area of hypha maximizes its contact with environment for uptake of raw materials for biosynthesis, for gas exchange and for the release of by-products of metabolism. A large surface area is advantageous in other ways, too. For example, sugars and metabolizing enzymes are stored in the space between the plasma membrane and the cell wall (intramural space), which the hypha can apparently use as the energy and carbon source during exploration of the surrounding area for nutrients. This strategy is manifest in the high respiratory rate of mycelium in the absence of exogenously supplied respiratory substrate (endogenous respiration)—a feature that undoubtedly contributes to tolerance to adverse conditions for extended periods.
The large surface area of the hypha is not without its disadvantages. Because of the single-cell thickness of the hypha, the environment has a direct effect on it, rendering the thin-walled hypha vulnerable to desiccation. Fungi, therefore, must grow either in aqueous media or in a very humid atmosphere. In adverse conditions, the tip perceives a signal and apparently produces a conidiation-inducing factor that diffuses behind it, inducing formation of double septa along the length of hypha. The cells disarticulate and function as propagules called arthroconidia (Figure 1.7). Arthroconidia are the simplest type of spores formed by hypha.

FARMERS' INSTITUTE AT PLEASANT GARDEN. The first of the three farmers' in-stitutes to be held in Guilford coun-ty was at Pleasant Garden Friday. A large number of farmers and their families were in atiendar.ee and the sessions were held in the graded The'text ot the third- Americas note on submarine warfare presented at Berlin Friday by Ambassador Ger-ard rsveals that the imperial govern-ment had been informed it is the in-tention of the United States to re-gard {as "deliberately unfriendly" any repetition by the commanders of German naval vessels of acts in con-travention of American rights. The United States announces that it will' continue to contend for the freedom of the seas, "from whatever quarter violated, without compromise and at any cost." In official and diplomatic quarters the communication was viewed as the strongest and most emphatic pro-nouncement that has come from the Washington government since the De-fining of its correspondence with the belligerents of Europe. President Wilson returned to Cornish, N. H., Friday night to await developments. On the assumption that Germany has already admitted the illegality of her practices by attempting to justify them ss retaliatory moves against Great Britain, the United States ex-presses the belief that Germany will no longer "refrain from disavowing the wanton act of its naval comman-der in sinking the Lusitania or from offering'reparation for the American lives lost, so far as reparation can be made tor a needless destruction of human life by an illegal act." ! Following is the official text of the note which was delivered to the for-eign office at Berlin by Ambassador Gerard Friday: "Department of State, "Washington, July 21, 1915. "You are instructed to deliver tex-tually the following note to the min-ister for foreign affairs: "The note of the imperial German Mi vfLie-s&Mf they deprive' neutrals, ot their ac-kaowleged rights, particularly when <Ute> violate'the right to lite itself. If a belligerent cannot retaliate against an enemy without injuring the lives of neutrals, as well as their property, humanity, as well as jiutice and a due regard for the dignity of neutral powers, should dictate thtr the prac-tice be discontinued. If persisted in it would In such circumstances con-stitute an ' unpardonable offense against the sovereignty of .the neu-tral nation affected. The govern-ment of the United States is not un-mindful ot the extraordinary condi-tions created by this war, of the-radi-cal alterations of circumstance and method of attack produced by '.ho use of instrumentalities of navalwar-fare which the nations ot the world cannot have had in view when the existing rules of International law were formulated, and It is ready to make every reasonable allowance for these novel and unexpected aspects of war at sea; but it cannot consent to abafe any essential pr fundamen-tal government' ef it* »erman na-tion impels it to press very solemn-ly upon the Imperial government the necessity tor a scrupulous observ-ance ot nentral rights in'this critical matter. Friendship itself prompts it to say to the imperial government that repetition by the commanders of German naval vessels ot acts in contravention of those rights must be regarded by the government of the United States, when they affect American citizens, as deliberately un-friendly. "LANSING." Inquiries as to Orduna. The TJnlted> States will make diplo-matic inquiries of Germany regard-ing the submarine attack on the, Cu-nard liner Orduna at a time when she was bringing a score of Ameri-cans home.

Burnsides passed away at his home on East Gsston street last nlgth at 9.45 o'clock, following an illness of several months: He was well known in the city and county, and for a long time was in the employ of the city. He drove the first fire wagon ever brought to Greensboro. He Is sur-vived by his wife and three sons, who live here. Mrs. Nancy Kirkman and Mrs. Mary Gorrell are sisters, and Banjamin Burnslded, of Greens-boro, Is a brother. Two brothers live in Texas and another In Ashe-vllle. The funeral will he held at Alamance church. He was 59 years of age. Mr. McAlister Speaks.—The negro Sunday school workers of the city met Thursday night at St. James Presbyterian church for the purpose of organising to take up the teacher training work. Mr. A. W. McAlister was the speaker, outlining the work as carried on by the white Sunday school workers of Greensboro. Upon a suggestion by him, the following committee was named on permanent organisation: Prof. J. E. Wallace, Rev. R. B. Watts, Dr. J. G. Walker, J. H. Dillard and W. N. Nelson. Weekly meetings will be held each Thursday night at 7.30 o'clock, at the St. James' church!, until the work Is weU organised ami under way. women—were of high ordor and were enjoyed and appreciated by the peo-ple of the county. * . A. L. French, prominent grain and stock farmer of Rorklngham county and a frequent contributor to agri-cultural journals, made an address filled with valuable information of the best methods of enriching soil by stock raising. Mr. French stated in his address that the soils of Piedmont North Carolina are no better than they were 15 years ago. He gave as the reason for larger end better crops of today the use of better farm implements and better crop rotation. He was emphatic in his remarks to the farmers of Guilford and Pied-mont North Carolina that there should be more stock raisers among them. Following the address by Mr. French the crowd adjourned for din-ner and the grove about the school building was dotted, with table spreads on which were piled high the best things; to eat that can be pre-pared. After the dinner hour the farmers gathered under a large tree' where material had been placed for the con-struction of a "V" shaped road drag, A road drag was made and horses road drag was made and horses hitched to it and the stretch of road in front of the school building drag-ged. The farmers expressed them-selves as being favorably Impressed with the boys' road patrol plan, and expressed a desire of having It start-ed In their community. County Commissioner Tucker was present and saw the operation of the patrol, noting the success of the work. The drag was then* turned over to a team and man making a gt£t of the Imple-ment to the farmers of Pleasant Gar-den community. The cheapness of the drag was surprising to the farm-ers wheu they were told that the to-tal cost would amount to only 42 cents. v - There was held In connection with the Institute for men- an institute for women. Mrs. W. N. Hurt addressed the institute in, the afternoon with other speakers. Rural life and eco-nomics In the home, better living, happier surroundings for women were all emphasized. Investigating Fire. ";,.. Capt. W. A. Scott, of the insur-ance department, is investigating an alleged incendiary fire in Carteret county. It Is believed that a fishing lodge was burned there because somebody in the community was not permitted to fish on the property of the lodge. \ 1916, has received the careful con-sideration of the government of *the United States, and it regrets to be Qbjjged to say that it has found It very unsatisfactory,' because'it falls' to meet the real differences between the two governments and indicates, no way in which the accepted princi-ples of law and humanity may be ap-plied in the grave matter in contro-versy, but purposes, on the contrary, arrangements for a partial suspen-sion of those principles which vir-tually set them aside. "The government of the United 8tates notes with satisfaction" that the imperial German government rec-ognizes without reservation the val-idity of the principle insisted on in the several communications which this government has addressed to the Imperial German government with regard to. its announcement of a war zone and the use of submarines against merchantmen on the high seas—the principle that the high seas are free, that the character and cargo of a merchantman must first be ascertained before she can lawful-ly be seized or destroyed, and that the .lives of non-combatants may in no'case be put in jeopardy unless the vessel resists or seeks to escape after being summoned to submit to exam-ination; for a belligerent act of re-taliation is per se an act beyond the law, and the defense of an act as re-taliatory Is an admission that it is Illegal. "The government of the United States is, however, keenly disappoint-ed to find .that the imperial German government regards itself as in large degree exempt from the obligation to observe these principles, even where neutral vessels are concern-ed, by what it believes the policy and practice of the government of Great Britain to be in the present war with regard to neutral com-merce. The imperial German gov-ernment will readily understand that the government of the United States cannot discuss the policy of the government of Great' Britain with regard to neutral trade except with that government itself, and that it must regard the conduct of other belligerent governments as ir-relevant to any discussion with the Imperial German government of what this ■government regards as grave and unjustifiable violations of the rights of American citizens by Ger-man naval commanders. IPegal and inhuamn acts, however justifiable they may be thought to be against an enemy who is believed to here acted la eontraventlon of lew sad human-ity, are mauKestly indefeasible whenrj mere alteration of'circumstance. The rights of neutrals In time of war are based upon principle, not upon ex-pediency, and the principles are im-mutable. It is the duty and obliga-tion of belligerents to find a way to adapt the new circumstances to them. "The events of the past two months have clearly indicated that it is possible and practicable to conduct such submarine operations as have characterized the activity of the im-perial German navy within the so-called war zone In substantial ac-cord with the accepted practices of regulated warfare. The whole world has looked with interest and increas-ing satisfaction at the demonstration of that possibility by 'German naval commanders. It is manifestly possi-ble, therefore, to lift the whole prac-tice, of submarine attack above the criticism which it has aroused, and remove the chief causes of offense. "In view of the admission of ille-gality made by the imperial German government when it pleaded the right of retaliation in defense of Its acts, and in view of the manifest possibil-ity of conforming to the established rules of naval warfare, the govern-ment of the United States cannot be-lieve that the imperial government will longer refrain from disavowing the wanton act of its naval comman-der in sinking the Lusitania or from offering reparation for the American lives lost so far as reparation can be made for a needless destruction of human life by an illegal act. "The government ot the United States, while not indifferent to the friendly spirit in which it is made, cannot accept the suggestion of the imperial government that certain vessels be designated and agreed up-on which shall be free on the seas now illegally prescribed. The very agreement would, by implication, subject other vessels to illegal attack and would be a curtailment, and, therefore, an abandonment of the principles for which this government contends, and which in times ofcalm-er counsels every nation would con-cede as a matter of course. "The government of the United States and the imperial German gov-ernment are contending for the same great object, have long Mood togeth-er in urging the very principles up-on which the government of the United States now so solemnly in-sists. They are both contending for the freedom of the seas. The gov-ernment of the United States will continue to contend for that free-dom, from whatever quarter violated, without compromise and at any cost. It invites the practical co-operation of the imperial German government at this time when co-op* ration may accomplish most, and this great com-mon object be most strikingly and effectively achieved. ■, of at least one American passenger that the ship was attacked without warning. All officials refused to discuss the report or its contents, but it Is known that state department offi-cials did hot feel they could address inquiries to Germany on statements made by British passengers alone. Now, in possession of statements by Americans, the United States prob-ably will ask the Berlin foreign office for its version. DR. ALEXANDER AT STATE NORMAL COLLEGE FRIDAY. Dr.'H. Q.. Alexander, president of the State Farmers' Union, spoke to the students of the State Normal and Industrial College summer school Friday, as one of the closing events. His subject was "Adult Illiteracy." He treated the subject in a very in-teresting and intelligent manner. He discussed the question of moon-light schools and declared that through them it is hoped that the il-literacy among, the adults ot the state may be eliminated. Something for the voider stopuvmuit be dene, as well as for the children, IT North Carolina hopes soon to lower the percentage ot Illiteracy. While it is fine enough to educate the children, this does not eliminate a condition that is unfortunate now, said the speaker. This percentage means that there are 50,000 voters in the state who cannot read and write, according to the figures of Dr. Alexander. To aid these the moonlight schools have been started, and he appealed to the teachers to fulfill the great call upon them as the ones who are to alle-viate the situation. He praised the work the teachers have done, and laid stress on the im-portance of the profession, which necessarily must have in it the heart of service. He lamented the poor pay of the teachers, saying that "I think the teachers of the state ought to get double what they are getting." The summer school will close to-morrow.

Netflix Stock Is Tumbling Because Disney's New Streaming Service Is Actually a Threat
- Order Reprints
- Print Article
Friday belongs to the Mouse.
Shares of Walt Disney (DIS) were recently up more than 10% to $128.80—representing a roughly $21 billion increase in its market capitalization—as investors cheered details of Disney+, the company's streaming service, which is due later this year and which was detailed in Thursday presentations that included a price tag and some subscriber guidance.
OK, so maybe a new trailer for Star Wars: Episode IX, which showed brief glimpses of—potential spoilers ahead—Billy Dee Williams and Carrie Fisher, helped a bit? It can't have hurt, as it's a reminder of the excitement Disney's content can generate.
Investors took the latest Disney dish as a sign that it isn't messing around. Meanwhile, shares of Netflix (NFLX) were recently down 4% to $353.09, representing a greater-than $6 billion loss in market cap. The move is notable ahead of Tuesday's scheduled release of Netflix's latest quarterly financial results.
Newsletter Sign-up
Netflix "earnings days" typically bring a laserlike focus on subscriber growth, and this one will too—though with a twist, since it's the first since Apple (AAPL) has begun to detail its own streaming plans and, of course, Thursday's Disney presentation.
Disney executives have said its service will be available on Roku's platform, as well as Sony's (SNE) PlayStation 4. Other platforms, including Apple's, are expected to follow.
Investors' strong reaction to details out of Disney highlight the increased scrutiny under which shares of Netflix—up about 14% over the past 12 months—now find themselves as the streaming TV marketplace grows more competitive.
Barron's has covered a range of viewpoints on the matter, some upbeat about Netflix's position and others wary.
One of the latest: "We believe multiple platforms can win share of consumers' entertainment budgets," Guggenheim analyst Michael Morris wrote Friday. (He has a Buy rating and a $420 price target on Netflix stock, above FactSet's $399 average.) "Several services are set to launch within the next 18 months...we think Netflix will continue to scale globally through its Originals and ability to enhance discovery of its vast content library."

If you are diagnosed with a mental health disorder and addiction at the same time, this is referred to as co-occurring disorders. It is also commonly called dual disorders or comorbidity.
Mental health disorders and drug and alcohol addiction have a particularly high rate of co-occurring. Dual Diagnosis is the term given when a co-occurring disorder has been detected.
Persons suffering from affective disorders (i.e. depression and bipolar disorder) or anxiety disorders (i.e. post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder and panic disorder) are often found to have issues with substance dependencies. The National Survey of Health and Wellbeing concluded that no less than 35 % of Australians suffering from affective or anxiety disorders also struggle with substance abuse.
Persons dealing with severe mental health disorders (i.e. schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder) are even more likely to slip into drug addiction.
Alcohol abuse and alcohol dependency are most commonly co-occurring in persons diagnosed with depression and/or panic disorder. Seeking to numb their pain or soothe their nerves, alcohol – the most widely used drug in Australia – can quickly become the go-to medication if professional help is not sought out.
Cocaine abuse is often co-occurring with major depressive disorder. As cocaine is known to give a boost to self-image and enhance energy levels, it can be an appealing quick fix for an individual trapped in a depressive episode. However, as the effects quickly wear off the symptoms of depression are likely to worsen, in the worst cases starting of a downward spiral of increasing cocaine use.
Schizophrenia and an addiction to ice are classic co-occurring disorders and their individual symptoms are often difficult to tell apart. Sufferers are likely to exhibit erratic behaviour (i.e. manic highs, hysterical laughter and sudden fits of rage), severe mood swings and may be developing an increasingly warped view of reality. Excessive ice use can lead to symptoms of schizophrenia; pre-existing schizophrenic episodes will worsen dramatically when paired with crystal methamphetamine abuse.
The term 'poly-drug use' refers to drug abuse spanning a range of substances, meaning the user does not have a clear preference for one particular drug. As sufferers of post-traumatic stress disorder can experience a wide range of symptoms (i.e. panic attacks, sleep disorders, hallucinations, depression and paranoia) it sadly makes sense that they might turn to a variety of substances to self-medicate depending on their circumstances. Alcohol, cannabis and opiate abuse are common co-occurring disorders.
As co-occurring disorders qualify as Dual Diagnosis, they will ideally be addressed with a Dual Treatment Plan. This holistic approach to drug and mental therapy combines the treatment of both, rather than focussing on just one aspect of a patient's battle. For long-term success it is necessary to examine the co-occurring disorders in depth and determine which one has paved the way for the other. With intensive and mindful therapy, sufferers of co-occurring disorders can achieve lasting recovery and lead happy and fulfilling lives.

Cycling in Sydney Australia
With great fanfare, the Barangaroo Headland Park was today opened by premier Baird in company with Paul Keating, former PM and prime mover for the restoration of the natural attributes of the area, and Malcolm Turnbull who tweeted that he came by Route 333 bus with his grandson (subtext: Not by helicopter, so not costing taxpayers very much).
When it was safe after the politicians left, I decided to take a ride over to the dark side in the mid-afternoon to see what there was to see. It is rather impressive and looks like it will be a very popular attraction for locals and visitors alike.
According to news bulletins, something like 75,000 native plants have been installed on the hill recreated with massive piles of sandstone blocks quarried from the site. Most plants are well advanced already but in another few years, it will appear like a natural area of bush and will match the headlands opposite on the enlightened side of the harbour.
Cyclists are catered for with parking rails and shared paths everywhere. Not that they will be travelling anywhere at speed. Like Pyrmont Bridge, the area offers pedestrians total freedom to wander aimlessly and there is no real direct through route for commuter riders anyway.
It's a motor-traffic-free area for relaxed riding and a fair proportion of the riders I saw felt safe enough to consider it a helmet-optional area.
Go and check it out!

Thanks for posting
Thanks Neil - is the entire foreshore open all the way back to King St Wharf?
Not at the moment, which is why I mentioned that there is no direct route through to anywhere (useful). It may happen in the future as the foreshore paths past the various developments are linked up, I hope. Currently you have to exit to Hickson Rd roughly opposite and below the Observatory. That's pretty much in the directly opposite direction to which the helmet-free riders pictured are riding.
I should have mentioned the ritzy portable toilets just near there, too. I've never seen such well appointed porta-potties, not that I am a connoisseur or anything. Featuring electric lights, exhaust fans, freshwater flushing and proper bathroom basins, they are so comfortable and welcoming you mightn't want to leave. When I was there the whole pod of a dozen or more were vacant. I don't know how permanent a feature these temporary toilets are but they are almost worth a visit by themselves. Especially if you NEED to go, if you get my drift.
Might be best to get off at the Quay, then around under the bridge and straight along Hickson Rd. to the north entrance to the park. Level and scenic route, me thinks.
It'd be a bit further via the Quay but you have virtually no road crossings and can ride pretty much all the way around the foreshore, which is attractive. You have to deal a bit more with road crossings and the general motor traffic cesspool if coming from Wynyard. I came down from the SHB cycleway and entered the site initially from the top via Clyne Reserve. Can't quite remember if I went back down to enter at the Towns Pl gate because there were steps otherwise or just because I felt like it.
I enjoyed it. It is nice. But small. I hope when all is done the parkland is both a useful route and a lot more park.
The corporate casino jungle seems quite dense

Who doesn't want to live more sustainably? As a pet owner, you can take several steps to live in an eco-friendly way. Here are a few tips from your vet London, ON.
Try Sustainable Products
Purchase planet-friendly pet products, like biodegradable poop bags, "green" shampoos, and eco-friendly stain removers. You can also find toys made from recycled materials. The possibilities are endless, and every small effort makes a big difference!
Feed Eco-Friendly Food
Choose pet food that's packaged in biodegradable or recycled bags. Do your research to find food companies that are committed to lowering their carbon footprint and environmental impact. You can also make your own pet treats at home to reduce waste—always check with your vet to make sure your ingredients are safe for your animal friend.
Adopt, Don't Shop!
Getting your pet from a breeder or pet store perpetuates the cycle of breeding, which isn't very sustainable for the environment. Adopting from a shelter, on the other hand, frees up food, medicine, and equipment to help other animals and ultimately helps the shelter conserve its energy and resources.
Want more tips on eco-friendly pet care? We're here to help. Contact your veterinary clinic London, ON today.

World Class Coach Peter Thompson
What is a "roll on recovery"?
My friend Peter Thompson has a site called the "New Interval Training". The information on Peter's running web site makes you think out of the box when it comes to best practice mid distance and long distance training.
I've read just about every book on endurance training theory over the years. However, you never have all the answers when it comes to best practice training. As a coach, you should always be on a quest to learn more.
What strikes me about Peter's site is the emphasis on the recovery phase between interval reps. Rather than jogging or running slow, the pace is much quicker between each rep than "normal" interval training.
According to New Interval Training theory, key physiological changes occur during the recovery phase of the workout. The recovery phase of a hard interval workout doesn't receive nearly the attention of the pace of the rep itself in most running publications.
Said another way, focusing on the recovery phase of a workout is not standard fare in the endurance coaching profession. Everything normally focuses on the pace of each rep and whether you are running in the proper training zone i.e., lactate threshold pace, Vo2 Max pace, etc. Comparatively little has been written on the "recovery pace" of each interval rep.
The new interval training is similar to a fartlek workout only it is more structured. I find value in Peter's approach to training. I've used the running paces and roll-on recovery method of the "New Interval Training" in my own coaching practice. In addition, I am fascinated with what we still don't know about this method of training.
Can the "recovery rest phase" of the New Interval Training be the next great breakthrough in endurance training? Only time and more research will tell. My gut is that this training method is underrated and there is a lot more to the story that we don't fully understand yet.
Peter's web site inspired me to conduct my own unique research on the recovery phase of a typical interval session. I've been looking into the "lactate shuffle" theories of George Brooks myself now for a few years. Peter quotes a lot of George Brooks original work on his web site.
To learn about the new interval training, visit the New Interval Training web site. Peter does a good job of explaining the value of the new interval training on his site.
Thank you, Peter, for challenging us to think outside of the training box.

Q2 2019 Intralinks Deal Flow Predictor: Peak M&A or a Pause for Breath?
Worldwide mergers and acquisitions activity stutters in 2018, faces growing headwinds in 2019
11 February 2019
Forget crystal balls and fortune tellers: Dealmakers wanting to know the future of global M&A six months ahead of everybody else should turn to the just-published Q2 2019 issue of the Intralinks Deal Flow Predictor for must-read predictions for M&A activity in H1 2019.
The big picture
On the heels of a decline in M&A announcements in H2 2018 and a slowdown in early-stage M&A activity in Q4 2018, our forecast for H1 2019 is for a 2 percent year-over-year (YOY) increase in the number of worldwide announced M&A deals.
Icebergs may be ahead
In Q4 2018, YOY growth in early-stage M&A activity in worldwide virtual data rooms slowed to 10 percent. At the same time, according to data from Refinitiv and Intralinks' own analysis, the number of worldwide M&A announcements fell by 9 percent YOY, the largest decline since Q2 2012. Overall the full year 2018 saw the number of announced M&A deals fall by 3 percent YOY, the first annual decline since 2013.
Winners and losers in H1 2019
North America is expected to show the strongest growth in M&A activity in H1 2019, with the number of deal announcements forecast to rise by 5 percent YOY. Latin America is bringing up the rear, with the number of announced M&A deals forecast to fall by 6 percent YOY. The Real Estate, Energy & Power and Materials sectors are expected to show the highest growth in M&A activity, while the Healthcare, TMT (Technology, Media & Telecoms) and Industrials sectors are forecast to lag.
Private equity will continue to make a splash
In 2018, worldwide M&A valuations reached their highest levels for 30 years and the competition for deals between private equity and strategic acquirers ran red hot. PE outbid strategics in these sectors: Consumer Products & Services, Consumer Staples, Energy & Power, Technology and Retail. With over $1 trillion in dry powder, expect PE to continue to make life difficult for strategics with inorganic growth plans in 2019.
Sailing into headwinds
While there are still reasons for the M&A market to push somewhat higher in the short term (including a wall of private equity dry powder from recent record fundraisings), we believe that the pace of the current M&A up-cycle, which began in 2014, may have peaked and that dealmakers face considerable headwinds in 2019. These include: a slowing global economy, partly driven by the trade war between the U.S. and China; rising interest rates; depressed global equity markets (which fell 10 percent in 2018); sky-high M&A valuation levels; and increasing nationalism and protectionism against cross-border M&A.
The Brexit factor – known unknowns
One concern for dealmakers remains the uncertainty and potential damage to European economic growth caused by the political chaos of the current Brexit process, with an increasing likelihood of a "hard Brexit" as Britain lurches closer to leaving the E.U. on March 29 without a negotiated exit or future trade agreement with the E.U.
According to Intralinks' recent Brexit poll of global dealmakers, the majority believe that U.K. M&A activity after Brexit will decrease as U.K. assets will become less attractive. However, a substantial minority believe the opposite: if one of the consequences of Brexit is that British companies make themselves more efficient to compete on global markets and the British government makes good on its promises to continue to make the U.K. an attractive destination for investment, perhaps by lowering taxes and streamlining regulation, then Europe's largest M&A market may continue to thrive.
Find out more in the Q2 2019 edition of the Intralinks Deal Flow Predictor report. Independently verified as a highly accurate six-month forecast of future mergers and acquisitions announcements, the Intralinks Deal Flow Predictor is compiled by tracking worldwide early-stage M&A transactions that are in preparation or have begun due diligence.
Along with our independently verified forecasts of M&A activity in H1 2019 by region and sector, this issue of the Intralinks Deal Flow Predictor includes a spotlight feature on Britain's departure from the E.U. and its potential impact on M&A activity, including the results of our recent Brexit poll of global dealmakers.

First Person Footing
I now have access to a GoPro camera and strapped it onto my wrist yesterday while taking a couple short runs just to see how it'd work. The water wasn't the best and the stretches of calm water were short due to there being several tubers in the area, but I did get a little footage.
[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-ei4K5Uobg]
First Person Footing
The videos' in HD… feel free to bump up the quality and/or make it full screen…
And in keeping with the Pearl Jam backing music in the videos, here's a video Ron Scarpa's Watersports made a while back. Great footing and a great song.
A Day at the RSWS
Here's a nice video showing the fine people at Ron Scarpa's Watersports in action as they teach some new footers how to foot and some old footers some new tricks. Mr. Paul Macdonald, among others, makes an appearance as well.
[vimeo http://vimeo.com/21825359 w=512&h288]
The hardest part I have about watching these video made by people at the barefoot schools is looking at the water. First, they are in Florida so there's Gators in the water. Up here in Wisco, all we have are some real big fish, but nothing that'll bite an arm or leg off. That bit about the Florida water scares me just a little bit. Probably not enough to keep me out if it, but it'll definitely be in the back of my mind when I'm in it.
Second, 95% of the water is butter in these videos and the rest is still really, really calm. I see water like that maybe once a year and IF I'm lucky, I'll be the only boat out there. 50% of the time, the water I foot in, most people won't. 25% of the time the water would be nice except for the 5 or 6 other boats making waves as the pull their kids tubing. 15% of the time there is good water and only one or two other boats. The other 10% of the time, the water is rough enough where even I won't try to foot.


text: Yes, it is a bit pot-luck with the low-cost CC1101 devices. I was lucky with my first purchase which was a £2 device purchased directly via an Ebay seller in China and an 868MHz device turned up. I decided to purchase my last one from a UK seller which cost £12 as I wanted one with header pins and antenna with socket to help with further testing.

My wife is out of town to visit some relatives which means it's me and my three kiddos for the weekend.
Here is the sticky part. I had to arrange an important conference call today and was totally stressing out on how I was going to pull it off with a 3 year old, 5 year old, and 21 month old running around in all their glory.
Conference Call Coordination
Since my call was with folks in the UK I decided to schedule it at 6:00 AM since my kids usually sleep to around 6:30 AM or 7:00 AM.
My 3 year old is the one I was most worried about since she is usually first to rise… and she is also the most clingy in the morning.
With this in mind, I put some counter-measures in place the night before. Here is what I did.
- I first cleaned the place up since no one likes clutter.
- Next, I got the TV channel turned to 298 (Noggin). All I had to do was click "on" and Dora the Explorer would come to my rescue. This alone could be a life saver.
- I then got her milk poured in a glass and put in the fridge for easy grabbing.
- I also laid out their cereal bowls and even had the cereal box at point of use for easy pouring.
- Lastly, I kept her up a little longer than normal hoping this would work in my benefit.
Related to Lean Six Sigma
You may wonder what this has to do with lean or six sigma. I contend a lot.
Cleaning the place up represents basic 5S. No one functions well in a mess. The other things (getting TV ready, etc.) are loosely tied to the things we try to do to reduce changeovers via SMED.
The key to reducing the downtime associated with things like changeovers is to do all we can while the machine is running. We call this converting internal tasks (things we can only do with the machine stopped) to external tasks (things we can do while machine is running).
It's really common sense if you think about it. Why wait until the machine is stopped to get all the tools and supplies needed? Collect all the tools while the machine is running so you don't waste time once the machine has stopped.
So, really, all I was doing in preparation for my kiddo possibly waking up while I was on my conference call was practicing changeover reduction!
How it all turned out
I started my call at 6:00 AM sharp. I was in my bedroom with the door closed to limit the noise through the house.
The call was going great… but I'd be lying if I didn't admit to watching the clock.
I'd rehearsed (in my mind) what to do when my little angel popped her head in my door. I'd move for the TV remote, turn on Dora, while heading for the fridge for the milk (practicing flow). I'd also work the mute button on my BlackBerry as needed.
And wouldn't you know it… my call ended at around 6:40 and 5 minutes later my 3 year old came bee bopping down the steps ready to start her day.
I was ready to. And while my counter-measures weren't needed for the conference call our morning went very, very smooth. Let's see how I do the next few days!
Have a great weekend everyone.

The SheKnows writing team does our level best to lift women up but there are times when you have to call total BS on something someone has said, for the sake of women everywhere. Thanks to Kim Zolciak, we are faced with one of those times.
Do we look stupid?
You were warned this may be a stitch on the rant side, so hopefully you have prepared yourself mentally. Kim Zolciak, the former smoking-in-the-house "star" from The Real Housewives of Atlanta, just tweeted a picture of her size 4 self nine days after giving birth to twins.
10 Celebrities who won't wreck your daughter's body image >>
Let's do the math. Zolciak is 35 years old. Her body has now delivered six children. She just gave birth to two babies at the same time (in the medical community, those are called twins). Not to go all Mensa on you but those numbers do not add up to a size 4 body nine days after giving birth.
Please step into the booth and mark the box "yes" if you think Zolciak's claims are total BS.
Double the joy: A girl and a boy for Kim Zolciak >>
BS for a different reason
OK, let's live in a fantasy world where a woman in her mid 30s gives birth to twins, making her birth brood a nice even six, and by the grace of God and a freakish gene pool, she bounces back to a size 4 nine days later. Let's just pretend for the sake of this argument that's even possible. (When you're done snickering, please keep reading.)
If by some fluke your body is able to perform such tricks, we beg you to keep it to your f***ing self. Here's why. It's hugely (and we mean, like, Sears Tower huge) irresponsible to send this message to postnatal women, particularly ones who have had twins.
If you or someone you know has had twins, you know about things like "twin skin" — skin that has stretched out to accommodate the growth of twin babies. I sat in a plastic surgeon's office with my sister (when she was considering getting her tummy tucked after the birth of her twins) and the used-to-be-a-heart-surgeon said to my sister — while pointing at her twin skin — "No amount of sit-ups is going to get rid of that." (My sister looks amazing, years later, after opting not to get plastic surgery.)
How about her daughters?
Zolciak's claims not only sets unrealistic expectations for womankind (we need another reason to beat ourselves up like we need to get kicked in the teeth by someone wearing steel-toed boots), it's sending a twisted message to her daughters about body image. Brielle, Zolciak's 16-year-old daughter tweeted, "How is my mom a size 4…it's been 9 days since she gave birth to twins."
If you don't want your daughter to turn out like celebrity train wrecks, read this >>
A size 4 is unobtainable for most women who haven't just had twins and Zolciak is trying to suggest it's possible nine days after having twins? Is Zolciak's teen daughter going to grow up thinking this is a healthy postnatal expectation?
Fess up already
Is it that far-fetched to suggest that a woman who wears wigs (fake hair) and has fake breasts may have had the plastic surgeon sneak in right after her delivery to carve on her stomach? In fact, we could name countless other celebrities who have had twins in their 30s and 40s who pretend they've bounced right back to their fighting weight shortly after giving birth.
Are all these women coincidentally blessed with the same rare gene that makes this possible, or do they have really talented plastic surgeons? If you make a living on your looks, we suppose you do what you have to do — and that's fine — but just admit it! Let other moms who have just had babies (and the men in their lives) know that you've had help, so they are not consumed with self-loathing if, nine days after delivering twins, they are still carrying around a little baby weight.
We have a lot more respect for celebrities like Jessica Simpson, Kate Middleton and Kim Kardashian who have given birth, disappeared for a while and through lots of diet and exercise emerged looking amazing (several months, not several days, later).
