The idea behind the International Kissing Day is that many people may have forgotten the simple pleasures associated with kissing for kissing's sake, as opposed to kissing as mere social formality or prelude to other activities. International Kissing Day is not as commercialized as Valentine's Day.
Cultural connotations of kissing vary widely. A kiss may be used to express sentiments of love, passion, affection, respect, greeting, friendship and good luck, among many others. The act of kissing has become a common expression of affection among many cultures worldwide. (from: Wikipedia and www.cute-calendar.com)

SBA Overview
504 Green
Small businesses looking to grow and expand their operations through the purchase of commercial real estate and "go green" can benefit the environment and their bottom line with up to 90% fixed interest rate financing under the SBA's 504 Green Loan Program offered through Arriba Capital.
Borrowers can Finance Multiple SBA Projects Through the "504" Green.
Business owners who qualify for SBA 504 financing may be eligible for multiple SBA 2nd mortgages of up to $5.5 million per 504 green friendly project. There is no limit on the number of SBA 504 green projects allowed to each borrower under the SBA's Green Public Policy Goals, which means that business owners looking for additional 504 financing may be eligible even if they have committed or outstanding SBA loans.
Funds for this program are not limited by the SBA's usual aggregate lending limit of $5 million per borrower, which means business owners that previously reached their SBA maximum have the ability to receive additional loans.
Additionally, there is no limit on the amount of the 1st mortgage of a 504 project and therefore no maximum project size. In many cases, qualified borrowers with projects exceeding $20 million can still obtain up to 90% financing.
Benefits of the 504 Green Loan Program
- Up to 90% financing at below-market, fixed interest rates – No future interest rate fluctuations.
- Up to $5.5 million on the SBA 2nd mortgage portion per project with no limit on overall project size.
- Finance multiple SBA 504 green loan projects.
- Total projects from $750k to $20 million+.
- 10- and 20-year amortization terms available.
- Associated fees and soft costs can be financed in the loan (architectural and engineering fees, appraisals, closing costs, etc.).
Eligible Use of 504 Green Loan Proceeds
The following green initiatives are eligible for up to $5.5 million per project of SBA 504 financing provided they reduce energy consumption by at least 10% or generate at least 10% renewable energy:
- Energy Reduction – Acquisition or construction of a replacement facility or retrofit of a currently occupied or leased existing facility with energy saving technologies. Examples include improved insulation, lighting, HVAC systems and energy efficient windows. (Notes: acquisition or construction of an additional facility is not eligible. Retrofit projects must have been occupied for at least 12 months.)
- Renewable Energy – Plant, equipment and process upgrades of renewable energy sources (solar, wind, turbine, thermal) used to run a facility or renewable fuel producers, including bio-diesel and ethanol producers.
Owner Occupancy Requirements
- Existing Buildings – Business must occupy at least 51% of the project within one year of ownership.
- New Construction – Business must occupy at least 60% of project upon occupancy and 80% within 10 years.
- The borrower may form a real estate holding company that leases 100% to the operating business, which then subleases surplus space (up to 49%).

Still, after your resume, and even after your LinkedIn profile, there are other ways to say, "Look at me" when you're searching for employment; although, I mention these "other ways" very cautiously. Additional or supplemental documentation or social media profiles and pages can be useful when backing up your claim as a company's next top performer, but only when used correctly and in doing so, proving your claim as factual.
I'll start by saying what not to do. Do not put your Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat or otherwise links in, on or near your resume. These types of social media are for your friends, not your employers. Unless discussed later on during the hiring process or even after you've begun working (for instance I assist in managing Optimum's social media and therefore had to discuss my Facebook account in order to Admin on the company's page post hire), leave it out – and remember, let the employer be the one to mention any of these, if even necessary.
When employers are sifting through resumes, they are looking for reasons not to hire you. I know, that sounds strange, doesn't it? All too unfair to the job searchers out there, employers will hunt for any reason to through your resume in the trash in order to make room for their top candidates… Based solely on their resume of course. Do not give employers reasons to through your resume away – avoid adding pictures or the previously mentioned links.
Oftentimes used and extremely popular in marketing, construction, fashion, etc., etc. is the portfolio. Here's where I go into what to do. However, if you're going to do it, do it well and make it worth the onlooker's while. Remember to include dates and keep your work in chronological order. Don't let loose pages fall out or have multiple pages in multiple folders all shoved in a backpack you hastily grabbed on your way out of the house. A portfolio is meant to be a single window into your past work. A concise vision into the work you may provide in the future.
Found in Andrew O'Brien's article titled "Is this the future of the resume?:"
"… And sometimes you use Medium to create a new style of resume that incorporates gifs, internet slang and embedded Tweets and Pinterest boards. [That] is the path writer Jenn Van Grove took, publishing this 2014 version of an electronic resume, titled "Free Agent" – complete with a TL;DR version at the top."
This is where you might crash and burn if not used carefully, hence my caution. Jenn Van Grove does a wonderful job at selling herself, showing off her work and altogether leaving the employer wanting to see more.
The more of you there is out there, presented in a hirable and admirable way, the more likely companies are to become entranced at the possibility of you becoming part of their team. The resume is still the most important job tool, but it used to be just the resume. Now it is so much more.

What You Need To Know
When buying a foreclosure, be prepared for surprises, says Vancouver realtor Russ Macnab. The holder of a mortgage without this clause has only two options: either to wait until all of the payments come due or convince a court to compel a sale of some parts of the property in lieu of the past due payments. In the judicial foreclosure process, the lender files a complaint that declares its intent to take legal action against the borrower.
Since banks aren't in the business of owning real estate, they do everything they can to ensure that these homes are sold quickly. You may be able to avoid foreclosure by negotiating a new repayment plan or refinancing that works better for you. We looked at dozens of homes and she helped us all the way to finalizing our home purchase.
Your agent may recommend contingencies that will allow you to back out of the sale after the inspection and appraisal. Over the next few years, millions of homes in the United States will be foreclosed on by banks. In most situations, insurance requirements are sufficient to guarantee that the lender gets some pre-defined percentage of the loan value back, either from foreclosure auction proceeds or from PMI or a combination thereof.
Lists for the foreclosure homes in Santa Ana are provided online on different websites. Looking at the numbers of these dwellings prior to acquiring foreclosure real estate is the sole system you should use to determine the current value of the building. The auction notice is posted in the classifieds in newspapers or in a public building depending on the State and county where the foreclosure is located.
Foreclosure in the People's Republic of China takes place as a form of debt enforcement proceedings under strict judicial foreclosure, which is only allowed by law of guarantee and law of property right. Some Transfers can take place immediately or within a few days while in other States you may need to wait a month or more for the sale to be confirmed by a court.

boom Embedded IoT Monitoring
Monitor Anything Anywhere
- Integrated: Combine and harmonize monitoring parameters in machinery with your IT service management infrastructure.
- Holistic: Detect individual condition changes worldwide to identify and prevent problems in both, production and IT environments.
- Leveraged: Protect your existing investments in your IT service management infrastructure.
- Get Ready: Prepare yourself for the Industrial Internet of Things with semantic modelling and vendor-independent integration.
Merge Condition Monitoring and IT Monitoring
boom Embedded IoT Monitoring (boom EM) integrates the monitoring of condition parameters in machinery into the IT Service Management infrastructure. The connection of sensor networks, IoT edge devices and enterprise IT monitoring enables companies to monitor their production and IT environments with a holistic and flexible approach. boom EM is a complete solution for companies which are operating various plants at different locations and want to install their resources better to increase Service Level Agreements (SLA).
The boom EM agent is able to run on tiny embedded systems (e.g. Raspberry PI) which can be equipped with sensors for voltage, humidity, water level, pressure, or others. MQTT enabled devices can directly be connected to boom. The collected information is consolidated with traditional IT monitoring data for history analysis as well as it is used for threshold monitoring and alerting. boom EM enables and offers a single pane of glass for service, IT, network and production health status and monitoring. It uses all boom enterprise grade capabilities like highly optimized communication and security concepts to make IT monitoring as easy as possible.
Detect Changes and Prevent Problems
The boom EM agent can integrate the monitoring of a broad range of event sources. It combines classical end-to-end IT monitoring capabilities with the monitoring of device and machines, where it is important to determine the condition of machinery while in operation. The boom EM agent is able to monitor the country specific voltage level, detect spikes, power sag or surge. All information is available for reporting or further processing. It can even help organizations to calculate and evaluate their power consumption to reduce operating costs.
Leverage Investments in ITSM Infrastructure
boom EM enables your existing IT-Monitoring solutions (e.g. HP Operations Manager or boom) to do condition monitoring (CM). Various parameters can be monitored within the IT monitoring system in order to identify a significant change which is indicative of a developing fault. boom EM manages the desired state of a production environment or data center - defined by immediate measures and by calculated values. Fully integrated into an IT monitoring solution boom EM informs you in the message browser about the machinery status helping you to protect your investment in your infrastructure by monitoring almost any machinery.
Intelligent Agents Monitor Production Sites
The leading-edge agent technology which runs on the boom EM agent can simulate the behavior of a human operator who acts according to the IT operations manual. The agent operates intelligent and autonomous based on monitored conditions. In case of an abnormal situation, the boom EM agent can notify both, the local maintenance crew and/or the centralized control room. Superfluous delays can be avoided especially in emergency situations.
The boom EM agent is able to work autonomous. By default, embedded systems consume very little energy. A small battery is enough to ensure that the agent can work independent of line voltage. In addition, there are various alert modes which can be enabled together or separately. If the monitored condition reaches a critical level, the agent will send a notification via the default alert channel or via GSM in escalation mode. This helps companies to decrease their response time and to increase their uninterrupted operation.

In Jamaica, being gay is a death sentence. "Boom bye bye inna batty bwoy head" (gun shot to gay men) has replaced the
country's motto "Out of many, one people." Time magazine noted Jamaica is the worst place in the Americas for LGBT people and one of the most homophobic places
in the world. BATTY BWOY is a fiction bildungsroman set in Jamaica and America. The title is a reappropriation of the derogatory
Jamaican epithet used to describe gay, bisexual and effeminate men or those presumed to be gay or bisexual.
BATTY BWOY is the coming of age story of Mark Palmer, a gay, black Jamaican. The son of an overbearing, absentee
mother, he is thrust into an environment that requires a thick skin from torments and socio-economic disparities.
Suppressing his "gay tendencies" to avoid being bashed or killed, he migrates to America and breaks free from the
closet to a world where he is disenfranchised and arrested. As his life spirals from bad choices, he clings to desperate measures and finds hope.
BATTY BWOY author MAX MANTLE will read from his work and engage in conversation with the audience 6 – 7:30 pm, TUESDAY, JULY 14th at the North Portland Library, 512 N Killingsworth St.

The numbers are in… and they are staggering!
The global prevalence of rosacea is estimated to be 415 million, according to a new study.
Researchers from the University of Copenhagen reviewed 32 population-based studies that included information on the incidence of rosacea around the world, comprising 26.5 million patients. The general population estimates from the individual studies ranged from 0.09 percent to 22.41 percent, and when the studies were pooled together, the proportion was 5.46 percent. Based on an estimated global population of 7.6 billion, 5.46 percent equals 414,960,000 rosacea patients worldwide.
And this may just be the tip of the iceberg. The researchers noted that individuals with mild or moderate rosacea symptoms may not seek medical attention and as a result wouldn't be included in these already high estimates.
Rosacea symptoms include facial redness/flushing, swollen red bumps, eye problems and possibly enlarged noses (think Santa Claus). Many people mistake rosacea for acne and attempt to treat it accordingly, but these two conditions respond to different therapies. Is it rosacea? The only way to know for sure is to see a dermatologist for a proper diagnosis. Find a ZO physician near you here.
If you do have rosacea, treatment starts with:
Avoiding your rosacea triggers
Know what causes your rosacea to flare and avoid it where and when you can. This may include extreme cold or heat, sun exposure, alcohol, spicy foods, and stress. You will find that keeping a daily log can help you identify your rosacea triggers.
Taking good care of your skin
Proper skin care can also help keep rosacea flares at bay. ZO Skin Health's products that treat Rosacea related symptoms include Restoracalm Soothing Recovery Crème™ and Rozatrol™ serum which works to normalize skin by reducing excess surface oil. Consider a Hydrafacial with HydraFacial Rozatrol® Booster Serum. HydraFacial cleanses, extracts and hydrates skin, and super serums such as Rozatrol Booster Serum sweeten the pot. Powered by ZO® Skin Health, HydraFacial Rozatrol® Booster Serum is specifically designed to relieve the visible signs of red, sensitized skin and the appearance of blood vessels or telangiectasia.
Following doctors' orders
Renowned dermatologist Dr. Zein Obagi typically recommends oral medication and/or photodynamic therapy (PDT) including intense pulsed light (IPL) or laser treatments for rosacea. He also may advise the use of prescription metronidazole gel 1% to decrease the redness.

You can't manage what you can't measure is a basic business principle. Same holds true for LinkedIn. There is no guaranteed access, or entitlement, to success on LinkedIn. Please don't expect anyone to plop a pot of gold into your lap just because you filled in a few blanks on your profile. As I say in my seminars and presentations, someone has to do the dirty work.
And how do you measure results? That depends on your goals, of course. One way to track success is to watch the number of your connections grow.
Go to your "Home" page, scroll down the right sidebar and keep track of your network statistics (see image below). I tell my clients to set up an Excel spreadsheet and regularly (once a week) check the number of first level connections, how many new people have been added to your network as well as the total size of your LinkedIn network. Are the numbers increasing? Or are they shrinking?
Here are some additional measurement tools included on the home page as shown in the image below. Clockwise from upper right:
- Who's Viewed Your Updates
- What rounds are your updates making
- Another version of Who's Viewed Your Updates
- Who's Viewed Your Profile and
- How Many Times You've Appeared In Search Results
Another metric worth watching is your activity within a target group. You will get the 'Top Contributor' ranking which would increase you visibility within the group members. Of course to earn that away you need to be adding discussions and comments.
These are the present indicators provided by LinkedIn and you should monitor them to track your results.

Bair Hugger blanket lawsuits
Defective medical device attorneys helping patients whose health was compromised by warming blankets devices during surgery.
The Bair Hugger device used in knee and hip replacements or open-chest surgeries to keep patients warm, is claimed to facilitate severe infections by forcing air with bacteria on the surgery table, causing potentially life-threatening harm or injuries.
3M, manufacturer of trademark Bair Hugger, was sued over the device mostly known as a warming blanket in orthopedic joint surgeries. Some plaintiffs who got infections from hip surgery had several additional operations to fix the devastating infection, which has also been covered in the media.
It has been implicated also in cardiac infections from surgery.
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections are at the top the list of medical complications alleged by plaintiffs in some of the cases filed across the United States.
Heater-cooler devices are often used during surgeries to warm or cool patients as part of their care. They include tanks that provide temperature-controlled water to external heat exchangers or to warming/cooling blankets through closed water circuits, adjusted to temperatures best suited to the type of surgery being performed.
Airborne transmission of Mycobacterium chimaera bacteria from heater–cooler units have been researched by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC):

When young, upwardly mobile Latinos move back to their old neighborhoods, some residents are wary of the changes they bring.
This article originally appeared in Spanish on our sister site, CityLab Latino.
On the corner of Boyle Avenue and 1st street in Boyle Heights sits La Monarca Bakery, a Latino coffee shop and bakery that sells café de olla, pan dulce, and a vegetarian chorizo quiche. A few blocks away, on Cesar Chavez Avenue, sits Guisados, a taco joint that sells an 'Armando Palmer' and advertises its selection of tacos as 'gluten-free.'
These are two of the only places in Boyle Heights where you're likely to find a white person. And they're also emblematic for some community members of what's come to be known as 'gentefication': the process of change a Latino neighborhood undergoes when young, upwardly mobile, often college-educated Latinos come back from school or a stint in the suburbs and open up businesses. (It's also a play on the Spanish word for people, 'gente'). Often, these businesses have roots in Latino culture, but reflect the more American tastes of their owners, attracting a more diverse crowd than the immigrant-owned shops that surround them.
"Gentefication occurs when upwardly mobile, college-educated Latinos return to their old neighborhood and invest their time, money, and interests in [that neighborhood]," says Steven Almazan, a Boyle Heights resident who returned after graduating from USC and now teaches special education there. "I'll come out and say I consider myself a gentefier."
Almazan says that with pride. For him and for some other residents, being a gentefier means being part of a neighborhood revitalization effort that protects the area from invasion by richer (and whiter) outsiders, who they argue are more likely to displace residents. That's how Guillermo Uribe, owner of the wine bar EastSide Luv, thought about it when he coined the term several years ago. "If gentrification is happening, it might as well be from people who care about the existing culture. In the case of Boyle Heights, it would be best if the gente decide to invest in improvements because they are more likely to preserve its integrity," he told Los Angeles magazine.
But not everybody sees it that way. For Joel Garcia, the director of Self Help Graphics and Art, a community art space in Boyle Heights, gentefication is a complicated, risky process. He says that, just like gentrification, it can lead to displacement, making it very important that Latino business owners are careful about what they do.
"It's not as simple as staying in the neighborhood and opening up a store or a bar …," Garcia says. "You need to listen to the community. A lot of times people come out in a very gung-ho way and they don't stop to listen to what the community actually wants."
Garcia doesn't consider Self-Help Graphics a gentefied space—they've been in East L.A. for 40 years and he feels they're an authentic and original part of the neighborhood. But he does acknowledge that the events Self-Help puts on (like their popular Day of the Dead celebration) attract people from outside of the neighborhood, and that despite all their attempts to be careful and show respect for the community, some residents might find that troubling. "Some folks might see what we're doing [at Self-Help Graphics] as not the best approach," he says.
He's right about that. In early July, the activist organization Defend Boyle Heights disrupted a community meeting about gentrification at Self-Help Graphics, arguing the art space has been too friendly to the new art galleries making their way into the neighborhood. In their criticisms of Self-Help Graphics, the organization makes clear that people who live and work in the neighborhood can be complicit in and responsible for harm, even when they don't mean to be. Latino-owned businesses are not exempt by virtue of being Latino.
But that all raises the question: how do Latinos invest in their own neighborhoods without catalyzing a wave of demographic change that displaces residents and becomes impossible to stop?
"How do we make room for the evolution of a neighborhood without displacing people? Nobody's figured it out," says Barney Santos, the founder of Gentefy, an incubator for Latino-owned businesses in underserved neighborhoods. "First of all, we need the community to be involved in the conversation. We need to bring new businesses into the neighborhood, but at the same time invest in the the legacy businesses that are already here."
That's precisely what Gentefy aims to do, says Santos: find Latino entrepreneurs already operating in a neighborhood, and help them make their businesses more successful and popular. They aim to take people out of the informal business sector (selling tacos from their house or from a mobile cart, for example), and give them the resources and capital they need to grow into a business with broad appeal—one with a more modern aesthetic space, an interesting concept or an increased focus on customer service.
For Santos, the idea is that the entrepreneurs and their community reap the greatest benefits from these changes. That, for him, is the definition of gentefication. "You can't call yourself a gentefier and not be involved with and listen to the community. When you do that you're basically just a gentrifier with brown skin," he says.
Almazan feels the same way. For him, places like La Monarca and Guisados aren't gentefied, even though they have roots in Latino culture. They both have several locations in other neighborhoods, and he also thinks they haven't done enough to be involved in the community. "I would say other spaces also draw in a mixed crowd from outside the neighborhood, but the difference is that you see a lot more community building. Like Espacio 1839, for example… they're more than just a business here," he says. He's referring to the several events and clubs that Espacio 1839 has started in the neighborhood, including the Boyle Heights Bridge Runners.
Almazan says that a positive future for Boyle Heights, in his mind, involves more gentefiers, as he defines that word. He argues that progress doesn't always have to a bad thing for low-income Latinos. When he was little, he says, he lived in a house just down the street from a tortilla factory that eventually shut down and became a KIPP Academy charter school. For some, that might have been seen as a sign of negative change. For Almazan, it's become just the opposite.
"When I was at USC, I found out that this was the best middle school basically in all of L.A., right in the middle of Boyle Heights. And I realized we could have positive change," he says. That's part of why he chose to come back and teach special education at another KIPP school in the neighborhood, he explains.
"The benefit of being a gentefier is that you understand the struggle of what it means to live in this neighborhood," says Almazan. "And you also know we can make things better."

#Bankruptcy #auto #loans
Payday Loans in Bankruptcy
In most cases, you can discharge a payday loan in Chapter 7 bankruptcy. This is because if you owe money to a payday lender, that debt is generally treated like that of any other unsecured creditor in your bankruptcy. And if you file a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, then the payday lender will be treated and paid the same as other unsecured creditors — which usually means you'll pay only a portion of the debt (often a very small portion).
There are, however, some special issues you should consider when filing bankruptcy if you owe money for a cash advance, payday loan, or similar debt. The payday loan lender may challenge the discharge of its debt, and it might violate the law if you've written a post-dated check. Read on to learn more about these issues.
(To learn how unsecured debts are treated in Chapter 7, see Your Debts in Chapter 7. To learn how unsecured debt is paid through your Chapter 13 plan, see Unsecured Debt in Chapter 13: How Much Must You Pay?)
Creditors Might Challenge the Discharge of Recent Payday Loans
If you last took out a payday loan or other cash advance within 70 to 90 days of filing bankruptcy, then that creditor may try to object to your discharge (this means it challenges your ability to wipe out the debt). It may argue that you took out the loan without any intention of paying it back, and that you should not be allowed to discharge that debt in bankruptcy.
Indeed, there are rules that allow creditors to object to the discharge of certain debts that incurred right before filing bankruptcy. (Learn the details on rules about recent cash advances and debts in bankruptcy.)
Will the Payday Lender Win its Objection to Discharge?
Payday lenders that challenge the discharge of payday loan debt are often unsuccessful in bankruptcy court. This is because many bankruptcy courts do not look favorably upon payday lending practices and require the payday lender to prove that you acted with fraudulent intent.
Was there fraudulent intent? Many times, payday loans are not one-time loans or advances. Instead, a borrower falls into a long-term pattern of taking payday advances to pay the exorbitant finance charges and balances on prior payday advances. Because of this cycle, borrowers end up relying on the high-interest payday loans as a source of income. In this situation, courts often find that (1) there was no fraudulent intent, and (2) that the payday loan is a single debt that dates back further than the most recent payday advance.
How to Avoid Problems With Payday Lender Objections to Discharge
Nevertheless, there is a risk of losing your discharge if a payday lender can prove its case. Rather than deal with the time, money, and risk of fighting a discharge objection by a payday lender, you may be able to avoid this problem by:
waiting more than 90 days from your last payday loan advance before filing bankruptcy, or
filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy and paying the debt in through your plan.
Post-Dated Checks
If you gave the payday lender a post-dated check in exchange for the last advance prior to filing bankruptcy, the creditor may try to cash the check after you file bankruptcy. If the payday lender cashes your post-dated check when it knows you are in bankruptcy, it may be violating the automatic stay. If this happens, the court may require that the lender return the funds to your bankruptcy trustee. (To find out more about the automatic stay and what happens if a creditor violates it, see our Bankruptcy's Automatic Stay topic area.)
In addition, the payday lender may accuse you of writing a bad check and threaten to press criminal charges. If a payday lender does this to you, it may be in violation of various state and federal fair debt collection rules and other consumer laws. This is in addition to violating the automatic stay. (To learn more see, visit our Illegal Debt Collection topic area.)
Some states even prohibit or restrict payday lenders from engaging in the practice of demanding post-dated checks. For instance, Michigan's Deferred Presentment Service Transactions Act requires a payday lender to be licensed before it may use post-dated checks as security for advances and other payday loans.

There are currently 16 freshwater hatcheries (land based fish farms) operating in Tasmania, producing salmonids (salmon and trout). Most are hatcheries producing smolt (immature salmon) for marine fish farms. The growth of land based aquaculture has been closely tied to the rapid growth of marine farming. Under the Inland Fisheries Act 1995 the Inland Fisheries Service is responsible for licensing inland fish farms, and for ensuring adequate safeguards for the freshwater environment through specific licence agreements.
Under the Living Marine Resources Management Act 1995, marine farming development plans are prepared, designating areas in State waters where marine farming may occur. There are 44 licensed finfish marine farming leases in State waters, which occupy a total of 2,257 hectares in six marine farming development plan areas. Each of these areas has a different set of environmental issues and management controls. Farming takes place in southeast Tasmania, in the Huon River estuary and D'Entrecasteaux Channel; at Nubeena on the Tasman Peninsula; in Macquarie Harbour on the West Coast; and in the Tamar Estuary in the north of the State.
Salmonid species currently commercially farmed in Tasmania include Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Information on freshwater fish species in Tasmania is available at the IFS website
Impacts from freshwater hatcheries and marine farms may vary significantly, depending on factors relating to both the operation (size, style, technology) and the environment, including hydrological factors, weather and climate. Impacts to water quality resulting from inland hatcheries can occur from nutrients in feed inputs and fish metabolic waste being present in the farm discharge if treatment of effluent is inadequate, and this may cause visible impacts such as increased algal growth in surrounding waters.
Environmental impacts of marine farming include changes to the benthic habitat as a direct result of deposition of fish farm waste (ie fish food and faeces) at the lease sites. Changes to water chemistry such as lowered dissolved oxygen levels, are also a potential. These parameters are monitored by the industry and regulated by government, and a range of adaptive management controls are applied in response to the scientific modelling and regular monitoring.
The environmental licence conditions require the companies to undertake regular visual monitoring of the benthic impacts associated with farming salmon at all farm sites in the State. There are a range of controls relating to the management of lease areas and to respond to any significant visual impact at defined compliance points 35 metres away for the lease boundary.

Storm chasing is more than a hobby- for most of us, it's a way of life. We're fascinated by the mechanics and beauty of restless weather, and are always on the lookout for something new in the sky to see, hear, or experience.
But our adventures also bring their share of humorous, and even downright rediculous situations. Here's a little insight as to what goes on behind the scenes in the life of a lightning chaser, from the storm fans of the Lightning Mailing List.
You aim your camera, and hope anxiously for a very close strike, even though you know it will scare the living daylights out of you if it happens. But you don't care because, hey, it'll make one awesome shot!
You're shooting lighting at 2.00am in your back yard and the neighbours come out to watch the storm, they turn on the floodlights surrounding their house and wash out your current exposure.
Then just as your winding the film on, the mother of all strikes hits centre frame.... aaargh!
You go out and spend a fortune on a DV cam and bulk buy film for the 35mm
in april to get ready for a season...and the season never turns up : (
The first indication another storm has formed behind you is the incredibly bright flash and deafening roar of VERY close thunder....MAN I HATE THAT!!
Mike P.
Tucson, az USA
You eat Ramen noodles for 1 month because you're broke, but spend $100 in the same month on gas, film and film developing.
You've ever called in sick at work (or skipped class) so you could sleep because you stayed out all night chasing storms.
You see a storm on radar that is a little far so you drive about 40
to 50 miles to find that one, but it died and there is one right on top
of where you live.
Bill Coyle
Virginia Beach, VA
You wake up to find a storm right on top of you, you take your
air conditioned camera stuff that has been in the house out and set up - but you have to wait for it to de-frost, and you miss the good one...
Bill Coyle
Virginia Beach, VA
There used to be a flash light in the camera bag . . .
Bill Coyle
Virginia Beach, VA
How did I know I would need 2 more rolls of film.
Bill Coyle
Virginia Beach, VA
"Ok, I have to get closer to the storm" so you drive just about 1 mile
and the bottom drops out.
Bill Coyle
Virginia Beach, VA
You drive to find that great spot- and you drive - and you drive- and you
see all the shots you are missing and you finally find the spot, and the storm falls out.
Bill Coyle
Virginia Beach, VA
There is some form of 4 legged thing moving closer to you and you don't know what it is.
Bill Coyle
Virginia Beach, VA
"Is that a no trespassing sign there, I did not even see that", you
kindly tell the police.
Bill Coyle
Virginia Beach, VA
You've not had storms in a long time, and at night you look up in
the sky and you think you see lightning- but no one else sees it. (bad
Bill Coyle
Virginia Beach, VA
The weather calls for no storms for the next 2 days and you find
yourself chasing one at 1:00 am that night.
Bill Coyle
Virginia Beach, VA
You have a t-shirt, coffee mug, credit card, screen saver, computer
wallpaper, and business cards with lightning on them.
Despite the fact that you've not slept in 2 days due to chasing storms, you
still wake up at 8:00am so you can get to the photo lab and get your shots
Rain is soaking the inside of your brand-new truck because you're shooting
out the window, and you don't care because you have a good chance of
catching an awesome bolt. You spend the next week with garbage bags and
towels on the seats and driving with all the windows open to dry it out.
You clean out your car and throw away 1,000 empty film canisters.
You put more miles on your vehicle in 3 months than the average person does
in 1 year.
Your camera is stolen in December, and you go out buy a new one immediately
because you don't want to take a chance at missing a rare January storm
Every photo lab employee in town knows you by your first name
You shoot 5 rolls of film during a storm, and think you may have got 1 shot.
You put the good roll in the cup holder and the 4 bad ones on the passenger
seat. Then you go around a curve too fast, and all 5 rolls fall to the
floor. Now you don't know which one is good so you have them all developed,
and then the shot you thought you got didn't turn out.
You constantly daydream about your dream shot(s) and how you'd react if you
got it.
You've ever considered sleeping in your vehicle alongside the road because
it's 3:00am and you're 100 miles from home.
You've ever tried to 'call your shot' like Babe Ruth, pointing at a tree and
then aiming your camera at it.
For some reason you left your tripod at home and lost your cable release, so
you balance your camera on a trash can/newspaper machine/car roof/windowsill
and try to be still while you hold the shutter open.
You're out only looking at a distant storm with no lightning, and you're
trying to decide whether ot not to chase, but you set up your camera anyway and pretend to make adjustments
so it's obvious what you're doing so people won't get suspicious and bother you.
Even if you're a quiet, shy person, you celebrate like a college football
player in the end zone every time you get a shot.
Every time a broken fluorescent light fixture flashes, you think it's
lightning and stop what you're doing and start counting for the thunder. You
then stare at the ceiling for 10 minutes to see if it was really the light
fixture that did it.
There's a streetlight right in front of your house that blocks an otherwise
great lightning view. You think up possible legal, non-destructive
solutions like: 1.) petitioning the city to move the light or install a
switch on the pole for you, 2.) rigging up a complex
rope/bracket/flashlight/mirror system to trip the light's daylight sensor,
or 3.) tying a big beach towel to a long rope and using it to 'lasso' the
towel over the light.
You've ever unwittingly used the terms 'CG' or 'Anvil Crawler' in normal
conversations with your non-weather-enthusiast friends and gotten strange looks.
Somebody (doctor, parent, spouse, teacher, etc) has accused you of having
(or has diagnosed you with) ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder). (lightning is
the only thing that's short enough to hold your full attention span)
You're driving down the road during the day and slam on your brakes because
you thought you saw a great place to shoot from and you want to go check it out.
Whenever you think about your house burning down or being burglarized, the
only thing that you worry about losing is your lightning photo negatives/slides.
Ever notice that the more prepared you are, the harder you try, and the
farther you drive, the less lightning you catch?
Every time it storms and you don't catch anything, everyone asks you if you
got any photos. If you did catch something, no one asks.
A storm wakes you up at 4 am, you stay out all night- then suffer through
work the next day and you vow that you'll go to bed early to make up for
it...then you check radar, see more storms, and stay up all the next
You finally get a bolt on film, and you go crazy because there's no 1 hour
lab open at 3:30 am......meaning you actually have to WAIT to see the photo.....
You run out of film and money, and all of the ATM's are out because of the
very storm you are trying to shoot.......
You find a perfect photo spot during the day, and make a note of it.....then
when a storm comes at night, you go there to set up only to find a
streetlight right in the center of the view.....You're an honest, law abiding
citizen, but if you only had a BB gun..........
The thumb knob on your cable release falls off, and finding it in that tall
grass at night is impossible.....leaving the sharp rod exposed on the end of
your release.....as a result every time you open the shutter it's like
getting a blood test.....ouch....
You forget the can of OFF.....
The rain and wind blow in your face (and lens) no matter which way you
point, like smoke on a barbecue grill.

We feel it is crucial to lower the water table beneath the flooring and dry the subsoil, giving the homeowner a dry floor and dry air within the basement. A lot of companies neglect to dry the basement appropriately and resort to up selling a costly home dehumidifier (studies at the University of Minnesota state only having dehumidifiers can cause even more damage).
We, as an industry, can't carry on and turn a blind eye to the radon problem. I had a professor informed me that, "all waterproofing contractors are crooks!" He said, "You guys save the structure from water and kill the folks inside with radon". We don't desire to be a part of that problem! At SafeBasements Waterproofing we're responding to the issues other waterproofing companies pay no attention to. Our line of products is much more advanced than the competitors and is built to give customers more than they anticipate.

AARCS Featured Volunteer:
Jane Carter
I have loved animals, all animals my entire life! I grew up with a dog, then adopted my first fur baby once living out on my own. It's been multiple fur babies ever since!
Now that my two daughters are out living in the world, they have also adopted their own fur babies. When our family is together, it can be hectic as there are 7 canines running around the house, of various sizes! (the feline fur baby is at home at my eldest's house)
Since photography is a passion of mine, I took courses at U. of Calgary, and MRU. Once completed, I started up a home photography business. Volunteering at AARCS, as one of their photographers (and there are so many awesome ones!) was one of the first decisions I made! A few of the family fur babies were adopted through AARCS, so I knew of the great work they did, what they stood for, and their benefit and commitment to the Calgary and Area communities. I wanted to be a part of that, in whatever small way I was able.
I am honored and proud, to be a volunteer of AARCS.

"A source at Reality Jockey, the powerhouse behind the RjDj iPhone app, has told Wired.co.uk that it is working with Christopher Nolan and Hans Zimmer on a new "augmented sound project" based on the Inception soundtrack.
The software will squeeze the music through different "dreams" (filters) depending on the location, time, date and activity of the user. "There are dreams that are only played once a month on full-moon nights, or when the weather is bad, or when someone is traveling at more than 120mph…"
It sounds like an enriched version of RjDj, which remixes music on the fly, using generative harmonies and ambient sounds for samples and cues.

Venice, per Paganinum de Paganinis Brixiensem, 1501 die 25. Maii.
8vo. ff. 152 with 10 inserted blanks for annotation, (ii) 38 (i) 39-40 (i) 41-49 (i) 50-81 (i) 82-93 (i) 94-96 (i) 97-99 (i) 100-125 (i) 126-152. Gothic letter, in red and black, double column. Recto of first leaf blank except for mss, dusty, minimal marginal spotting or toning, couple of tiny worm holes to first few gatherings sometimes touching letters, some edges a bit frayed. A very good copy, disbound, in folding box. Very extensive C16 annotations, ex-libris of the Clarissan nuns of Trier to first.
Two initials blanks contain three pages of verse penned by the same contemporary hand. After an anonymous poem on a monstrous being comes one epigram, dated 1502, composed by the German humanist Theodoricus Gresemundus (Dietrich Gresemund, 1477-1512), notary and cleric in Mainz. There follow two poems: the first (also dated 1502) concerns sexual desire; the second (dated 1500) is a poem of medieval origin advising 'staying away from women', be they virgins, widows or spouses. In 1502 the same hand also wrote a tristich addressed to Jakob Wympfeling on adultery. It is impossible to say with certainty if they were penned by Gresemund as we have not been able to trace samples of his handwriting. However, he certainly addressed epigrams and dedications to Wympfeling in print and he was also known for his caustic verse.
Jakob Wympheling (or Wimpheling, 1450-1528) studied at Freiburg, Erfurt and Heidelberg and specialised in canon law and theology. He was preacher at Speyer and professor of grammar at Heidelberg; he eventually settled in Strasbourg. One of the earliest German humanists, he was in touch with intellectuals like Trithemius and tutor to numerous others including Jakob Merstetter. In addition to works on pedagogy, grammar and German history, he wrote moralising treatises on the education of clerics, under the influence of early Protestantism. He also composed 'De fide concubinarum in sacerdotes' (1501)—a satire on priests and their mistresses, a topic which caused 'humour and jest' at Heidelberg. Wympheling was professor there in 1498-1502 and Gresemund one of his students. The true target of the verse remains unidentified.
Justinian's 'Institutiones' was fundamental in legal education in the early modern period. The thorough annotator of this copy was probably a student. On the margins and blanks he supplied quotations from 'Super Institutionibus', a commentary to Justinian by the C15 jurist Nicasius de Voerda, first printed in 1541, in order to integrate the 'glossa ordinaria' of Franciscus Accursius (c.1183-1263)—the standard medieval exegesis of the Justinian code—and the 'summaria' by Hieronimus Clarius.

Manchester United are confident they can beat Chelsea in the race to secure the services of Southampton full-back Luke Shaw, according to the Daily Star.
The highly rated defender has been strongly linked with a move away from St Mary's, with the two aforementioned sides the favourites to get a deal over the line.
With United manager David Moyes failing in his attempts to sign Leighton Baines from his former side Everton, his attention has turned to England U21 international Shaw as a potential replacement Patrice Evra, who is expected to call time on his time with the Red Devils in the summer.
Southampton's owner Katharina Leibherr has assured Saints' manager Maurico Pochettino and the club's fans that none of their key players, such as Shaw, Adam Lallana and Jay Rodriguez will be moved on.
However, a bid of around £22.5m could be enough to persuade the South Coast club to consider selling.
