WHAT: IU Jacobs School of Music Concert Orchestra
BLOOMINGTON: 8 p.m. Sept. 5, Musical Arts Center
INDIANAPOLIS: 7 p.m. Sept. 8, Hilbert Circle Theatre
TICKETS: The Bloomington performance is free, and no tickets are required. Purchase tickets for the Indianapolis performance at indianapolissymphony.org, the Hilbert Circle Theatre box office or 317-639-4300.
Aug. 31, 2018
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Area audiences will have two opportunities to hear the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music Concert Orchestra perform next month.
One of the school's most elite ensembles, the 90-member orchestra will kick off its season at 8 p.m. Sept. 5 at the Musical Arts Center in Bloomington before performing the same program at 7 p.m. Sept. 8 at the Hilbert Circle Theatre in Indianapolis.
Thomas Wilkins, professor and Henry A. Upper Chair of Orchestral Conducting, will lead the student orchestra featuring Norman Krieger, professor and piano soloist for Bernstein's Symphony No. 2 for piano and orchestra ("The Age of Anxiety") (1949).
"August marks the 100th anniversary of Leonard Bernstein's birth, and 'The Age of Anxiety' is one of his great masterpieces," said Krieger. "I first heard the work live in New York with the New York Philharmonic under Bernstein's baton. It was so thrilling I went out and bought the score to learn it; that was back in the 1980s. I have since performed it many times around the world."
Additional repertoire includes Rossini's Overture to "La gazza ladra" (1817) and Respighi's "Fontane di Roma" (1916).
"Playing with an orchestra is like playing chamber music on a grand scale," said Krieger. "We all need to listen to each other, breath together, communicate and adapt to the acoustics of the hall and, in my case, the piano and how it projects in the hall. I try to use the hall as part of my sound world and how I can ideally engage with the sound."
The pair of performances will mark the first collaboration between Wilkins and Krieger, recent additions to the 180-member powerhouse Jacobs faculty roster, though they have known each other for decades.
"Our students are looking forward to the opportunity to perform in the city of Indianapolis, which has such a rich orchestral history, and in a professional venue as respected as the Hilbert Circle Theatre," said Gwyn Richards, David Henry Jacobs Bicentennial Dean. "What an experience for them to perform before new audiences and in a different home. In this Bernstein Centennial year, we are pleased to perform his 'Age of Anxiety' with our Concert Orchestra, featuring Jacobs faculty Norman Krieger and Thomas Wilkins."
A native of Los Angeles, Krieger served as professor of keyboard studies at the University of Southern California's Thornton School of Music from 1997 until his 2016 appointment at Jacobs. He regularly appears with the major orchestras of North America as well as with numerous prestigious international orchestras, collaborating with many of the world's finest conductors. He is the founding artistic director of The Prince Albert Music Festival in Hawaii, and since 2008, he has served on the summer faculty at the Brevard Music Center Festival in North Carolina.
Wilkins, a native of Norfolk, Virginia, is also music director of the Omaha Symphony through the 2020-21 season, a position he has held since 2005. In addition, he is principal conductor of the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra and holds the Germeshausen Family and Youth Concert Conductor chair with the Boston Symphony. Past positions include resident conductor of the Detroit Symphony and the Florida Orchestra (Tampa Bay), and associate conductor of the Richmond (Virginia) Symphony.
Watch Krieger explain more about "The Age of Anxiety."
No tickets are required for the free Bloomington performance. Tickets for the Indianapolis performance may be purchased at indianapolissymphony.org, the Hilbert Circle Theatre box office or 317-639-4300.

Hair Fall: How to Stop & Control Hair Fall | Indulekha
Effectively Combat Hair Fall With These Hair Care Tips
Irrefutably, the most prominent features of our face are our eyes, our smile and our hair. These three features can make or break a first impression. Having a full head of hair projects a kind of confidence that you can feel radiating out of you. When our hair starts to thin and fall out, it can really affect your self-esteem. Nobody wants to wake up in the morning to hair falling out on their pillows and clogging the bathroom drain. And here's the best part, you don't have to. You are the one in control of your hair care routine, which means you have the power to curbing your hair fall by just adjusting your lifestyle and routine to be more hair-friendly and hair-healthy.
Before you start on your hair fall control journey, there are certain things you need to understand about the root cause behind your hair fall. As part of the natural hair growth and shedding cycle of our body, we lose about 100-150 strands of hair per day. It is only when your hair fall exceeds this limit that it becomes a problem.
Hair loss is caused either by genetic causes or because of one's lifestyle choices. To bring excess hair fall under control, there is a need to zero in on the root cause of the problem. Here are a few common causes behind temporary hair fall in both men and women:
- Tight hairstyles that pull on your roots
- Excessive heat styling and chemical hair treatments
- Dirt, pollution and stress
- Illnesses or side-effects of medicines taken for illness
- Dandruff and breakage
- Improper cleansing of hair & scalp
How to control hair fall
Cultivating healthy hair habits and staying away from practices that damage and weaken your hair can help you to effectively combat hair fall in just a few weeks. You might be handling your hair incorrectly in a way that leads to breakage and hair fall without even realizing it. Here's a lowdown on common hair care mistakes to avoid:
- Brushing wet hair:
A lot of people tend to brush their hair right after a shower, while it's still wet. This practice is not advisable because your hair is at its weakest and most prone to breakage when it's wet. Brushing it in this state will increase the chances of hair fall. It is best to wait until your hair is dry before combing through. If you are in a hurry, wait till your hair is damp and gently comb through with a wide-toothed comb.
- Constant heat styling:
Constantly using heat styling products on your hair makes it dry, brittle and damaged. The same goes for chemical treatments that coat your hair with product build-up, weaken the roots and cause hair fall. Pick natural treatments over chemical ones and give your hair some room to breathe.
- Over-washing your hair:
Washing your hair every day strips it of the natural oils that your scalp produces, causing it to dry out. When the roots get stripped of natural oils, they weaken and are more prone to hair fall. Washing your hair three times a week is enough to stay on top of your hair health. People with oily scalp types can wash their hair on alternate days.
- Tight hairdos:
Wearing your hair pulled back occasionally is okay but if you are styling your hair that way on an everyday basis then it will do more harm than good. Tight hairdos pull at your roots, weakening the follicles and accelerating a receding hairline. Leaving your hair open or opting for styles that don't tug at your hair will help you minimize hair fall.Weak, damaged and dry hair is synonymous with hair fall and breakage. Adding the right practices to your routine will make your hair healthy, strong and less susceptible to hair fall. Here are some steps to help control hair fall efficiently:
- Picking the right hair products:
Keeping your hair and scalp clean is the base of taking good care of your hair. You need to pick the right hair products like shampoos and conditioners according to your hair type. Dry scalps need moisturizing shampoos, oily scalps need deep cleansing shampoos. Using the wrong kind of shampoo can dry out your hair and cause hair fall. Look for a good anti-hair fall shampoo with natural, herbal ingredients.
- Regular scalp massages:
Massaging your scalp with a potent hair oil is a great, time-tested method for hair growth. It stimulates the scalp, increases the flow of healthy nutrients to the roots and eases tension. The oil also works as an excellent hydrating agent and can transform your hair from limp and dry to strong and smooth. Leave the oil in for at least two hours before washing it off.
- Watch your diet:
A lack of proteins, minerals and vitamins in your diet could very well be the reason behind your hair fall. A protein called 'Keratin' makes up a major part of your hair. It plays a vital role in keeping your hair protected and repairing damaged hair tissue. If your body doesn't get enough protein intake from your diet, your hair suffers. So make sure to include protein and vitamin-rich food in your meals.
- Do chemical hair treatments cause hair fall?
Most chemical treatments and bleach/dye jobs are bad for your hair if carried out often. Occasional usage does not have lasting effects but prolonged use of such treatments deteriorates the health of your scalp and leads to hair fall. However, this type of hair fall is not permanent. Avoiding chemical treatments for a few months will ensure that your hair growth goes back to normal.
- Which ingredients should I look for in hair oil?
Look for natural herbal ingredients that promote hair growth and strength, such as:
- Amla
- Bringharaj
- Coconut
- Almond
- Svetakutaja
- Sesame
Avoid hair oil that lists synthetic dyes, artificial fragrances or silicones among its ingredients.

"We work to validate and actively support the experience of ethnic minorities as they navigate their sexual health."
Black Fly Zine is reworking the ways in which sexual health and self-pleasure are discussed for marginalised Black and Brown people. Run by four womxn ranging between their early twenties and thirties, Bui Mushekwa, Veronica Amon, Ella Frost, and Monique Todd came together to spread educational messages of sensual support. Through their zine publications and offline/online workshops, BFZ advocates for better-informed conversations regarding the world of sex.
With their call out for the second publication of Black Fly Zine in full swing, Sassy asked Bui Mushekwa to tell us more about the motivations behind their project, and the discourse they are encouraging.
Hello BFZ. Could you tell us what inspired the creation of your collective community and zine?
Black Fly was primarily known for the publication. However, we have also carved a name for ourselves by formulating radical, original workshops that foster collaboration with forward-thinking individuals and organisations to further support our ethos and agenda. We work to validate and actively support the experience of ethnic minorities as they navigate their sexual health within the context of oppressive historical and colonial structures that often hinder the wellbeing of black and brown people across various identities.
Our bodies are home and, unfortunately, when you've lived and experience life in a Black, Brown, Queer, differently-abled, or any kind of 'othered' body, navigating sex - desires or health - comes with layers of invisibility.
In a way, BFZ exists to educate, spread knowledge, hold space for black and brown bodies. Our sexual health and wellbeing is a foundational part of being in a body. Our bodies are home and unfortunately when you've lived and experience life in a Black, Brown, Queer, differently-abled, any kind of 'othered' body, navigating sex - desires or health - comes with layers of invisibility. Whether it's society's margins, or ourselves feeling invisible. BFZ aims to illuminate all that, we aren't invisible. We want to give space to have these conversations within our communities.
As a collective, there appears to be a consistent undertone of educational, intellectual awareness within every topic you approach. What has been the process of developing Black Fly Zine's identity and voice?
Spreading knowledge is what we're here to do. We're a newly formed collective, with a different approach for 2.0. So far we're learning about the yearning for knowledge, and not just information, aligned with gracious vulnerability. We've affirmed this is the work we are here to do. We aren't really about being palatable or nice. We honour our work, we honour and stay true to the message we want to send out. Check out our manifesto!
How do you hope to inspire, teach, and engage people who may be shy to the idea of discussing sex, sexual health, and sexuality?
Some of us in the collective are former shy people who felt they had to hide certain things (a distinct memory of being surrounded by a group of friends discussing how they thought blow jobs were disgusting and needing to hide how much I enjoyed them). In workshops and in our social media interaction we reinforce that this is a no shame space. We remind people that your sexual health, and knowing parts of your body intimately, alone first, and then with others only enhances the human experience. We draw a lot from mediums like visualisation, mind mapping, meditation. Appealing to as many senses as we can, because shyness can be routed a lot in shame; we reject those ideas. We stay open, and we'd never force anyone to talk/interact if they're not comfortable- so long as they know they can keep coming back to us as a reference as they gain more questions, and feel more comfortable.
We remind people that your sexual health and knowing parts of your body intimately, alone first, and then with others, only enhances the human experience
Many of the BFZ workshops have focused on masturbation and self-pleasure. What is the motivation behind running these workshops?
We want to encourage "normalised" discourse around self-pleasure. We strongly believe that if you ~master~ masturbation, you learn what gets you off, you know what feels good. Sex is so conditioned to be about the other person when really, all of it starts in the mind, with you. It can't do any harm when practiced safely and approached as a part of wellbeing, it's a meditation of sort.
You've opened submissions for the 2nd issue of Black Fly Zine. Can you tell us about the zines brief and what you hope to be receiving?
We all know that our bodies are going through a lot. The great mother Earth is going through a tumultuous time and we're being directed to listen to her. What's the salve you're using through this metamorphosis, whats the goo that's lubricating your joints smell like? How deep do the trails of your tears go? What are the gross and brilliant parts of how you're living through a crisis?
Finally, what do you hope to change and encourage within society through all the work BFZ does?
We want people to know and reference our manifesto.
We want our communities to approach Black Fly as a noun, adjective, and verb.
We're interested in building solid, healthy roots in our communities first.
We want to show society that we can heal, look after, create, be kind to each other, and our bodies.
There's space for us all.

The Ranga Reddy District Consumer Forum on Friday ordered a multi-speciality hospital in Chandanagar to pay a compensation of Rs.5 lakh to the kin of a patient who died of medical negligence three years ago.
P. Rajashekar Reddy, son of the deceased patient P. Narasimha Reddy approached the Forum against Mythri Hospitals in 2011, holding the hospital and its doctors responsible for his father's death.
According to the complaint, Mr. Narasimha Reddy from Medak district went to the hospital on March 12, 2010 with a high fever and was admitted the next day.
Through his five-day stay in the hospital, the doctors had maintained that everything was normal.
A number of diagnostic tests were conducted on him including liver scan and endoscopy.
Mr. Reddy's condition continued to deteriorate and he began to complain of swollen stomach, uneasiness, breathlessness, and nausea.
Even then, the doctors continued to affirm that the patient was normal. It was only on March 17, that Mr. Reddy's condition was declared critical , and he was shifted to a super-speciality hospital where died on the same day.
Doctors at the super-speciality hospital attributed his death to complicated Falciparum Malaria with sepsis syndrome, followed by multi-organ dysfunction, shock, acute renal failure, and hepatitis. Supporting his case with documentary evidence, Mr. Rajashekar Reddy alleged that his father died due to gross medical negligence on part of the doctors at Mythri Hospital.
Ranga Reddy District Consumer Court president R.Gopala Krishan Murthy held the hospital along with two doctors Nagendra Prasad and Ravi Prakash responsible for the patient's death, and ordered them to pay a compensation of Rs.5 lakh to his wife.

That commitment remains as strong as ever as the lab transitions from one leader to another, with Hartwig Anzt coming in as the new director.
"ICL has always been the place where algorithms and software are developed that are used around the world—this will not change," said Anzt.
Anzt is very familiar with the ICL, having served as a postdoctoral researcher, research scientist, and consultant since coming to the lab in June 2013. Distinguished Professor Jack Dongarra—who founded the ICL and has been its sole director—officially retired at the end of June, necessitating the move.
As part of the selection, Anzt will also be the recipient of the MathWorks Professorship in Scientific Computing, which was announced in the fall of 2021 following an endowment from the company. Along with earlier contributions from the company, MathWorks has now provided $1 million.
MathWorks founder Cleve Moler was on a team with Dongarra at Argonne National Laboratory in the 1970s. Then the two later teamed up to work on various linear algebra libraries before Moler served as faculty advisor during Dongarra's doctoral work at the University of New Mexico.
Moler got the idea for what became MATLAB shortly after that, which would go on to be the idea that started MathWorks.
In fact, much of the world of modern computing can trace at least part of its lineage to the lab, thanks to its prominent role in the development of numerical linear algebra libraries, evaluating and benchmarking the performance of machines, and helping in the expansion of distributed computing.
Together, their impact can be felt across various tech-centric products, from laptops to cell phones. Part of the reason for its influence across the tech sector is that even its more high-profile projects are made available for free, including Gingko, a popular numerical linear algebra platform that Anzt served a leading role in developing.
"Software needs to be considered critical research infrastructure, similar to a beamline or a telescope," said Anzt. "Software enables science."
The lab has also served as a connection point for UT to partner with high-profile laboratories, including the national labs such as Oak Ridge, Argonne, Los Alamos, Berkeley, Sandia, and Lawrence Livermore, and premier universities like Stanford, UC Berkeley, and Georgia Tech, and key industry leaders including IBM, Dell, and NVIDIA.
ICL's reach isn't limited solely to the United States, either, as international partners like the European Centre for Research and Advanced Training in Scientific Computing, the Tokyo Institute of Technology, and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, where Hartwig Anzt received a prestigious Helmholtz Early Career Award in 2017.
Anzt earned his undergraduate degree at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in 2006, graduate degrees from the University of Ottawa in 2008 and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in 2009, and his doctorate in 2012 from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, with Dongarra serving as one of his advisors.
He is a member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Society, the Society of Industrial and Applied Mathematics, and the Association for Computing Machinery's Special Interest Group on High Performance Computing in the Regional Group of Middle Tennessee.

Triumph, BMW, & Kawasaki Sales Spares & Repairs.
Established for over 40 years and run by expert motorcyclists.
Fully authorised workshop.
Report from the 1902 Stanley Show
Motor Cycling, 26th November 1902
1904 Parts could be used by other firms to produce machines using Minerva engines.
1910 Entry into market with single model that remained as standard - reflecting quality of materials and design. First model had vertically-mounted 3.5hp engine, chain-driven magneto, sprung forks and excellent finish. Within six months from their launching, BSA"s were selling well. The machines were easily distinguishable among rival makes by their yellow and green painted tanks. A TT rear-hub, two-speed model was soon added. Until well into the 1930s, various models were added, adapted or discontinued.
1915 There was a choice between the 85x88 3.5hp model and the 85x98 4.25hp model. This latter machine was offered as being especially suitable for sidecar work. It also had the three-speed BSA gearbox with foot controlled clutch that was introduced in 1914 and a double barrel BSA carburettor. Both models could be had in chain-cum-belt version or in all chain drive with encased chains, which made the machine three pounds and five shillings more expensive.
World War I. During the war, production ceased while they pursued their traditional manufacturing, making guns, but returned quickly following the armistice.
1919 The company made their first V-twins.
Early 1920s. They acquired an engineer and designer from Daimler called Harold Briggs who designed new sporting machines for them, including their popular 493cc ohv Sloper of 1928.
1928 They made their first and only two-stroke, a 175cc unit construction bike, for only one season.
1950s Scooters were gaining popularity. Two models were announced but neither did well.
1951 The company bought Triumph.
1961 Employs 4,300 persons.
1968 Queen's Award to Industry for Export Achievement.
1971 Company reorganisation centred production at the Triumph site and together BSA and Triumph launched ranges which included many new models using common parts, such as forks and wheels. By this time the company was in deep financial trouble as, although an industrial giant, the company proved unable to compete well against the Japanese. The 1971 lineup saw major makeovers, including oil-in-frame 650cc twins. BSA was bought by Norton (owned by Manganese Bronze) and absorbed into the Norton-Villiers-Triumph group in 1971, which managed to design an uncomfortably tall A65 Lightning at Umberslade Hall before BSA collapsed.
1972 BSA had to make major cut-backs, soon to be followed by the demolition of the factory at Small Heath.
1973 The name was finally abandoned and production ended.
1979 The name of BSA survived as mopeds and small motorcycles were assembled from imported components. Many of these machines were built for third-world countries and the services.
For purists, the end of the line had come in 1972.
Note: The UK rights to the BSA name were acquired by the Canadian Aquilini family. BSA Co. was sold and a US company (Bill Colquhuon's BSA Co.) used the name for Rotax-engined military bikes and Yamaha-based Bushman machines for developing nations. In 1991, Andover Norton and BSA Co. merged to create BSA Group, which was taken over in 1994 to form BSA Regal. They announced a new Gold SR using a Yamaha SR400 engine in a Gold Star styled chassis.

After the successful run of Dragon Raja in almost a year now, Archosaur Games as the developer is still eager to produce another flagship game. In recent news (06/28), they even already announced their new title, which is called Noah's Heart!
It was explained that the MMORPG will combine a fantasy world with steampunk style and expected to be released in 2021.
Noah's Heart brings a feature where all players can freely determine their own story in the game. It's either taking adventure by defeating many monsters, undergoing love stories with other players, or to build a house to live peacefully in the world of Noah.
The world of Noah has a source of life called the Cube. This magical entity will protect all life. Maybe it is too common in MMORPGs where this source of life balance is being threatened with some sort of evil powers. Then, you as the main character will be the savior and taking a mission to bring things back to normal.
The beautiful graphic in Noah's Heart comes from the anime style that has been refined with Unreal Engine 4 technology. It is believed that Noah's Heart will have a higher graphic score than their previous title, Dragon Raja.
As we already mentioned earlier, Noah's Heart features alternative stories. The in-game missions will make players go on adventures with several options to explore. Depending on what you choose, the storyline will be different for each player based on how you want to complete the mission.
With an Open World feature, Noah's Heart will have various vehicles to choose from. It looks like you can get this vehicle at a certain level or you have to spend money to get all of the vehicles.
Unfortunately, we have to be patient until the Archosaur Games is ready to announce the release date of Noah's Heart. Hopefully, there are no obstacles in the process of developing the game given that the pandemic is still spreading throughout the world.
So, are you fans of Dragon Raja and interested to test the new title from its developer? We will be posting any news and the latest updates of the game! Stay tuned, guys!

Nixor College in Karachi is being called for animal abuse during their event Regatta. Regatta translates into a sporting event consisting of a series of boat or yacht races, as per traditional definitions. It got redefined into an event that included what some are calling animal rights violation by the students of the Nixor College in Karachi.
A video recently circulated on the internet, showing chickens that were surrounded by a group of 48 students, and people say they were manhandled during an event.
On 15th Dec 2018, Nixor College held its annual "Raft Regatta" event at Hawksbay beach, conducted by Nixor Event Management Services – NEMS.For this event, the management gathered a flock of 6 chickens at the beach. These chickens were placed at the centre and were surrounded completely by 48 students. In an absurd turn of events, the students simultaneously rushed at these chickens in an attempt to physically grab them. Naturally, the chickens frantically tried to escape. As the horde of students attacked them, the harmless chickens were manhandled, shoved, and clearly injured.Video evidence has been attached of this absurd occurrence. If you were present at the event and considered this kind of abuse "amusement", you are part of the problem.The apparent motive behind this was to simulate 'survival' for the students. I fail to understand why such kind of abuse is the only avenue they deemed fit. Whatever the motive — for a progressive educational institution to endorse such kind of animal abuse is genuinely appalling and must be called out.#EndAnimalAbusePlease leave a review on their page: Nixor College
Gepostet von Adeeluddin Siddiqui am Sonntag, 23. Dezember 2018
In an attempt to grab the chickens, the students rushed at them, shoving and attacking them. The video also apparently shows how one chicken tries to hide somewhere inside the rocks and gets injured in doing so.
This happened during Raft Regatta organized by the college's own event management team, called the Nixor Event Management Services (NEMS).
One student from Nixor College, who was part of the event said, "At Regatta, we are supposed to do everything on our own. Cooking the meal by our self is one of the tasks assigned to the teams at the event." And this apparently where the chickens came in.
Instead of giving chicken pieces to the students, the organizers thought of trying something new. The students were asked to catch the chickens and then hand them over to the organizers, who would later butcher them and give them to the team who was successful in catching it, for cooking purposes.
People on social media were understandably disturbed by the premise of the event
Following the intense backlash, the dean of Nixor College shared a written apology with the students yesterday where he took full responsibility of the horrendous event.
As the world is progressing and focusing on animal rights, we are still no where close to making our students aware of what animal rights violation really is and why is it problematic.
However, this is not the first time the college has come under criticism.
Nixor college seems to have a tradition of hosting events that promote the opposite of being socially responsible; the water carnival – House of Dreams (HoD) – that took place in July this year, got a lot of backlash for obvious reasons; water wastage.
With back to back socially irresponsible events being organized by what appears to be a reputable educational institute in the city, the conversations around 'but, what about animal rights?' and 'saving water for future' still remain blur.
What do you guys think of the whole incident? Have something to add to the story? Let us know in the comments below.

- By Emma Gomes, Staff Writer -
More often than not, students are influenced by the common misconception that studying abroad is unobtainable; the time, money, and resources needed to study abroad feel distant to many. In my experience, I thought I would never get the chance to study in another country, but despite my doubts, I gave the application process a shot and kept my optimism low. Over the span of a few months, that hope began to grow as the Office of International Programs guided me through the entire process and eventually handed me my acceptance letter. With guidance, perseverance, and support, the doubts I had once felt disappeared and I got to live out one of my dreams.
The Office of International Programs, located on the first floor of Joyner Hall, is a department dedicated to assisting students who are well on their way to study abroad as well as students who feel that their circumstances may interfere with their chances. Not only is their door open to all students, but they have made it their mission to keep students on track with deadlines regarding the application and tuition process. Finding ways to fund your trip may be frustrating, but the Office of International Programs has organized a Study Abroad Funding Workshop that is intended to help students save money more effectively. These workshops include discussions surrounding loans, fundraising methods, and insight into ways that former students have raised the money they needed to make their trip possible. The director of International Programs, Brooke Shurer, can be contacted at email@example.com or Liz Yaros, Associate Director of International Programs, can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Although the Office of International Programs is committed to supporting students along their study abroad journey, it's really up to us to take initiative. In the beginning, I was doubtful that this opportunity would come to life, but by working hard and taking advantage of the resources on campus, I was able to visit Belize over the summer of 2017. A major piece of advice I would give is to look into scholarship opportunities. Meredith College gives several study abroad scholarships away each semester as well as in the summer. If it weren't for the scholarships I received, I would have never gotten to experience the beauty of Central America in the way that I did. Don't let money be the deciding factor of whether you will get to experience this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Most importantly, be brave enough to step out of the safe bubble you've created for yourself — feeling uncomfortable is a necessary and inevitable part of growth. Studying abroad will teach you that.

If you get pulled over for a traffic violation or if police respond to a car accident you were involved in, you have certain rights that kick in. You don't have to answer questions asked by law enforcement officers and have the constitutional right to remain silent. A good attorney will advise you not to talk to law enforcement officers because anything you say can be used against you, and you can't be punished for refusing to answer a question.
But another question some people have is whether they can legally film officers if they become uncomfortable with their questions, attitude, or approach. That's a smart question, so let's explore the answers here.
Can I Legally Record the Police?
If you see police officers talking to people and you start to question whether the officer is acting inappropriately or in an unlawful manner, do you have the right to videotape what's happening? Likewise, if an officer is questioning you and starting to make you feel uncomfortable, can you videotape and document this interaction?
That's where the First Amendment comes in. Since this question first made its way through the legal system, virtually every court has ruled that the First Amendment grants you the right to record — through pictures, video, or audio recordings — the actions of police officers while they're in public and performing their duties.
In 2012, the City of Boston agreed to pay Simon Glik $170,000 in damages and legal fees to settle a civil rights lawsuit Glik filed after his 2007 arrest for videotaping police getting rough with a suspect. The First Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously ruled that Glik had a "constitutionally protected right to videotape police carrying out their duties in public," and the Boston Police Department now instructs its officers not to arrest citizens who are recording them in public.
The only exceptions are that you can't do it in a way that interferes with the officer, their actions, or their ability to do their job. Courts have ruled that officers can order citizens to stop recording if that action is interfering with or obstructing their duties — for example, if you're standing too closely to an officer trying to make an arrest, or encouraging people around the officer to become violent. Some states also prohibit audio recordings of an officer without the officer's knowledge, so it's wise not to try secretly recording the officer and instead make it clear that's exactly what you're doing.
However, the simple answer to whether you're allowed to record police is yes, even if the officers don't like it. In the smartphone age, when most people have a camera or video recording device on their cell phones, this has become a useful tool for collecting evidence. And even police are starting to use body-work video cameras to film arrests and interactions with the public.
The bigger question, though, is whether filming an officer, particularly one hostile to your actions, can be counterproductive. Let's look at the pros and cons of filming officers.
What Should You Know Before Recording Police?
Let's say you start recording police, and the officer becomes upset and orders you to stop. Now your interaction with them has become more confrontational. That can seem intimidating, and it's possible this will make a bad situation even worse. You might be nervous that the officer will try to take away your phone, maybe even damage it intentionally or accidentally.
These concerns are legitimate, and it's understandable if you decide not to record the officer as a result. It's important to use your best judgment in a situation like that. But the bottom line is you do have a legal right to continue recording the officer, and if you do, that gives you solid proof of what just happened.
Filming their actions could prompt the law enforcement officer to improve their behavior since they surely don't want to be filmed acting in an unreasonable manner. And it's important to keep in mind that people film police all the time, and those videos often end up online, on social media sites, or on television newscasts. Many officers today have come to expect situations like that.
Some smart rules to consider in these situations include:
- Know the law first
- Avoid secretly recording police, since most states make it illegal
- Respond to officers as they address you. If you get questioned about videotaping them, let them know you're asserting your First Amendment rights
- Stay on your own best behavior
Experienced and Dedicated Louisiana Car Accident Attorney
If you've been in an auto accident and get questioned at the scene by police, you do have a right to record that interaction. It's also a smart idea to record all details at the scene that can be helpful when filing a claim for damages. It's also important to seek out the help of an experienced car accident lawyer like the ones at the Law Offices of E. Orum Young. Their attorneys have experience assisting car accident victims and know that someone else's negligence has hurt you. Our team will help you receive compensation.

Have you ever wondered what your snake is thinking?
Do you think about how snakes in the wild react when they see other snakes?
If you have noticed how some animals communicate with each other or with humans and wonder how this idea applies to snakes, you might ask:
How do snakes communicate?
Snakes are solitary creatures, so their need and ability to communicate are limited. When they communicate, they use their vomeronasal system, pheromones, body language, and hissing.
If you own a snake, you might have seen some of these, but you might not be familiar with others.
Read on to learn more about how snakes communicate, whether in the wild or captivity.
Table of Contents
How Do Snakes Communicate?
Snakes prefer to be on their own, opting for a solitary life rather than a communal one many animals enjoy.
Because of this, they don't need or have the same ability to communicate that other animals have.
Many other animals, from dogs and cats to whales and birds, live with and interact with other members of their species daily, and their survival and day-to-day lives depend on it.
The way snakes communicate isn't through vocalizations, like you might find in other animals.
This doesn't mean they don't communicate at all.
Snakes use various methods to communicate with each other, their owners, and other animals in the wild.
Vomeronasal System
Snakes analyze the world around them based on chemical cues they collect through their sense of taste, smell, and the vomeronasal system.
The most important part of the vomeronasal system is the Jacobson's organ.
The snake flicks their tongue out into the air collecting tiny particles.
Then they bring their tongue back into their mouth and rub it over their Jacobson's organ to interpret collected data.
This lets them know if there is a nearby predator, but it also helps them communicate with other snakes.
They can collect and analyze chemical cues other snakes in the area are putting off.
This comes in handy, especially during mating season when a male snake does his best to find a female.
The snake's ability to put off pheromones is related to the vomeronasal system.
These are chemical cues they leave for other snakes.
Pheromones tell other snakes how old they are, whether they are male or female, and if they are ready to mate or not.
The vomeronasal system and pheromones were hand in hand to help these animals communicate with each other.
Body Language
Up until now, we have touched on ways snakes communicate more with each other, but not how they might communicate with animals or humans in the world.
Body language is one way snakes communicate with each other and with their owners and potential mates.
We communicate through our body language, from the way we stand to where we put our hands.
There are many things body language conveys, and snakes use body language to "talk" to other snakes or animals.
A twitch or jerk by a male snake and a lift or wave of a tail from a female are signals they use when deciding to mate.
These movements tell one snake the other is open and willing to mate with the other.
When males fight for territory or a lady snake, they will work to intimidate each other.
This often escalates to physical combat, but rarely death or severe injury.
When it comes to communicating with their owners, you will need to learn and acknowledge their body language to help reduce stress in the animal.
Snakes are not warm, cuddly creatures.
Their emotions circle hungry, afraid, and relaxed.
A calm snake will be happily exploring or basking in its tank, whereas a fearful snake will hide or cower if you come near it.
An agitated, fearful snake will follow movement around to make sure whatever is moving is not a predator.
Some will strike as an attempt to scare, intimidate, and bite a potential predator.
They will also move away quickly if they feel the tide turning and move away like they are attempting to flee.
Hungry snakes will have their body language, prowling around the enclosure and flicking their tongue more than usual.
Knowing your snake's body language will only help you provide better care, reduce stress, and let you know when your snake is up to interact with you.
As you get to know your snake, you will learn this body language and tell what your snake wants and needs.
Hissing is a kind of stereotypical communication device for snakes.
You often see this in film, TV, and written about in books.
But if you have researched snakes, you might know they don't have the best sense of hearing, relying more heavily on their sense of smell and the vomeronasal system.
Some snake species do communicate by making a hissing sound.
Others, like rattlesnakes, shake their "rattles" on their tails in the air to communicate.
Still, others like the king cobra make a growling sound or a lower frequency kind of hiss to communicate with other king cobras.
Snakes do have an inner ear and hear certain noises and vibrations.
Airborne sounds are hard for them to hear, but vibrations traveling through the ground are a different story.
Not only do they use this form of communication to communicate with snakes, but this is also used as a signal for humans and other animals they deem to be potential predators.
Now you know more about how snakes communicate with each other.
All animals communicate in some way, even if it isn't how we as humans communicate.
Though they would rather be alone, snakes communicate with others and those around them in various ways.
After reading this article, we hope you better understand the many ways a snake might communicate with other snakes, with their owner, and with other animals they encounter.

I currently work in the sales department of Octopus Books, the illustrated non fiction branch of Hachette UK. Graduating from my Masters in 2011, I spent about six months in various work experience placements in the publishing industry, where I could learn a bit more about different departments and publishing houses. I ended up in the Sales department of Octopus because I really enjoyed the busy nature of the department, and the interaction with clients an customers on a daily basis appealed. Being in Sales also gives me the opportunity to travel a little more, and not be completely chained to my desk. It can be a demanding role, and there are daily problem solving tasks, usually involving missing orders. I really enjoy these! It is also a very analytical role, and there is a lot of research - not quite MA standard - but I have found myself using some of the tricks and skills I learnt during my Master's year. Spreadsheets are key! I am planning to move on to a more mixed bag of titles, when the opportunity presents itself. I would love to work with fiction as well as non fiction, and academic texts as well as more mass market titles. I do miss my university life, but I know there is always the option to return to studying in the future. Certainly one of the greatest lessons I took away from the Center for the Study of the Renaissance was that you are never too old to develop new passions and interests.

Powder Toy 95.0
Powder Toy Specifications
Powder Toy Review
Last Updated: 2020-08-16 21:28:52
Games have steadily become more and more acceptable, to the point where educational games are starting to become an accepted part of school curriculum. After all, what's more likeable to a kid - formulas written on a whiteboard or an interactive game where you can physically see how different elements interact with each other. Powder Toy is the best example of this.
To install Powder Toy, simply unzip the executable from the archive and run the executable.
Let's get something out of the way - kids love blowing things up, and kids love games. Instead of discouraging that, why not just have them play something that has both those things but is educational at the same time? This game lets you create a powder of various elements and drop them into the world. This powder has many of the same properties its real life counterpart has.
When ice meets fire, it will melt into water before dousing the flames. Mercury falls faster than snow. Water will solidify manga, thunder will electrify metal, and the virus will eat through everything before turning back into the first material it ate. Finding these unique interactions is what the game is all about, and if kids get bored, they can always spawn in some C4 and blow up everything around.
Coupled with unique maps that alter how the powder flows, there's plenty to like here. Power Toy is a fantastic game that is just plain old fun to play. If any of that sounds interesting, you should give it a download.
At the time of downloading Powder Toy you accept the terms of use and privacy policy stated by Parsec Media S.L. The download will be handled by a 3rd party download manager that provides an easier and safer download and installation of Powder Toy. Additionally, the download manager offers the optional installation of several safe and trusted 3rd party applications and browser plugins which you may choose to install or not during the download process.
