In Florida each year, there are between 9,000 and 10,000 children who are removed from their home because they experienced neglect or abuse at the hands of a family member. It is no longer safe to live at home, at least for awhile ... but perhaps forever.
If there are no relatives able to care for them, they are placed in a group home or with a foster family. What sets foster parents apart is their ability to love a child like one of their own, regardless of whether the child lives with them for a month or for more than a year. Foster parents have the challenging task of providing an atmosphere that helps a child heal and prepare to go back home, if possible, or on to a new permanent home. Foster parents are a vital resource for these children as they wait in limbo, between a past that was painful and a future that is uncertain.
Here are some questions to ask whether or not you're ready to be a foster parent:
Do you have enough room in your home to temporarily house a child? You must be able to provide the child with his or her own bed. A child in care may share a bedroom with your child or another child in care. However, the child may not share a bedroom with any individual over age 18. Also, adults cannot move out of their bedroom and sleep on the couch to make room for the child.
Can your home pass a safety inspection? It is important that children live in a safe and clean environment. During the homestudy process, a representative of the local health department will conduct a safety and fire inspection of your house or apartment. Your home must be free of danger and garbage. You must have working smoke detectors and a fire extinguisher. You must pass this inspection to be eligible to be a foster parent.
Are you physically and emotionally capable of caring for children? Being a foster parent can be demanding. You must be physically healthy and emotionally healthy to care for foster children. You will be interviewed by the counselor regarding your own childhood experiences and your family relations.
Do you have a history or record of abuse or neglect? When we receive your application, we will review our records. If you have been investigated by the department in the past, you may not be eligible to become a foster parent. This includes substantiated cases of abuse and neglect or if your own child had to be placed in foster care.
Do you have an adequate income to meet your own family's current needs? While you don't have to be rich to be a foster parent, you must have enough income to meet your own family's needs. During the homestudy, you will be asked to provide proof of income.
Have you been in your current relationship for more than 12 months? Foster parents can be single, married, divorced or separated. However, you must have been in your current marital status for at least 12 months to ensure stability in your relationship.
Has an adult in your home ever been convicted of a crime? If you or any adult residing in your home has been convicted of certain criminal offenses, you cannot be a foster parent. Each adult member of your household will be fingerprinted, and a juvenile records check will be done on each child in your home 12 years of age and older.
Are you ready to begin the homestudy process? You are ready to begin if your life and home are stable. "Stable" means that you are not about to move and are not having financial, marital or emotional difficulties. If you rent, you will need your landlord's approval. Also, your home must be in good repair. Overall, you must have given serious thought to the decision to become a foster parent.
Orientation Schedule for Foster/Shelter and Adoptive Parents Jan - June 2012

While Spain continues to climb the rankings of the world's tourism destinations, a number of opportunities and challenges remain along the way in the country's hyperactive hotel sector.
Spain's hotel industry is thriving.
According to World Tourism Organization, 2018 was its sixth record year in a row in terms of tourism arrivals. Last year, Spain received 82.6 million tourists, second only to France, with 90 million tourists, and ahead of the United States, with 81 million. In terms of tourism revenue, Spain was also number two globally, behind the U.S. and ahead of France. The prognosis that the World Travel and Tourism Council is making is that by 2028, international tourist arrivals in Spain could reach 121 million.
To add to this, Spain's largest feeder market, the United Kingdom, has grown by 20.8% (9.8 million room nights) in the last five years. Moreover, in the same period of time, room nights from U.S. visitors have grown by 47.2% (2 million room nights).
Regarding transactions, the activity in Spain is booming. Last year, Spain was second in Europe, after the U.K., in terms of investment volume, reaching €4.9 million ($5.5 million), thanks primarily to Blackstone's acquisition of Hispania. So, a U.S. vehicle, the world's largest real estate private equity firm, is now the second-largest hotel owner in Spain.
But of course, not everything happening in Spain reflects strict financial performance criteria. One cannot deny that the global interest rate climate is keeping the pressure on real estate assets also in Spain. Transactions like the Villamagna, Ritz Hotel, Four Seasons Madrid or YTL reflect more tax optimization strategies, country risk allocations or interconnected board moves, rather than strict hospitality criteria.
But where are the opportunities in Spain?
For starters, in excess of 650 hotel management companies operate in this market, so the environment is prone for consolidation. The space for domestic M&A activity is significant, as well as the benefits from acquiring management platforms, as KSL, Gaw Capital and Minor have experienced. Costa del Sol, the Balearic Islands and the Canary Islands are obvious targets with plenty of potential.
With 66% of total room nights coming from international markets, hotel owners in Spain are increasingly appreciating the need to incorporate brands with international reach. But, with the exception of Accor and Marriott, the international brands that are present in this territory are barely scratching the surface of this market upside. A lack of a serious commitment through a concerted effort by locally based architecture, F&B, legal, IT and franchise support teams, and the belief that development can be managed remotely from the U.K., is the primary factor that is hindering the growth of other top American brands. Meanwhile, Spanish banks, such as Caixabank or Sabadell, are going in the opposite direction and are proving that the franchise model, which no single Spanish group is adopting, is fully bankable. This is bringing a breath of fresh air into projects liquidity.
From a geographical perspective, the market to enter now is Catalonia. Hard Rock, Accor, Marriott and H10 Hotels are growing there now. The fundamentals of the region's economy should go back to normal in the medium term.
Last, but not least, at the lower end of the spectrum lies another niche. The largest Spanish groups are abandoning the 3-star resort category segment (while conversely innovative 3-star urban concepts are booming). Absolutely not a single player, domestic or international, has been able to consolidate this massive resort category of the market which accounts for 26% of the total room supply in Spain.
Portobello Capital is attempting this. They are acquiring and leasing independent properties in the holiday segment through Blue Sea Hotels, although no true product consolidation is being carried out. This is a common theme: investment vehicles are acquiring assets, but they are neither consolidating nor repositioning them.
The flipside of this opportunity, not only with 3-star properties but with all categories, has been an acute lack of capex re-investment in holiday properties that has lasted several years, as noted by ISHC in its 2018 CapEx Report. During the financial crisis, hotel owners in top resort destinations such as Spain did not generate enough excess cash-flow to re-invest in property capex. Hotel owners have been focusing during the last 10 years on sweating the assets and maximizing their returns. Luckily, this owner mentality is gradually evolving.
Thomas Cook's latest investment vehicle speaks louder than words, stressing that Spain is not a competitor to Turkey, Bulgaria, Greece or Egypt, neither in quality, nor in volume. Moreover, Spain hotel supply doubles Turkey's capacity, according to STR figures. (STR is the parent company of Hotel News Now.)
Spain's capacity is also 23% larger than the combined hotel supply of Egypt, Greece, Tunisia, Morocco and Algeria. So, it remains to be seen how much of a threat can Brexit really become for Spain, in light of the never-ending political instability in the Mediterranean alternative markets and their limited size and different quality.
Only when Spain moves from acquisition activity into consolidation and repositioning, will the market become the world's leading destination.

3D Master Sculptor
In 2015 National Geographic stumbled across a beautiful neon and red glowing sea turtle. At the time the live video was taken, the divers had no idea what species they were looking at, except that it was the first biofluorescent turtle ever found. But this stunning creature turned out to be the Hawksbill Sea Turtle. Although the species was first documented back in 1766, this was the first time scientists had ever observed it glowing.
You may be familiar with the material known as 'tortoiseshell'. Its mottled coloring was popular in combs, jewelry, handles, and guitar picks. Its popularity dates back to Ancient Egyptian times. The material came from the now critically endangered Hawksbill Turtle's shell. These days, synthetic substitutes exist for those wanting that 'tortoiseshell' look.

- Each statue comes with a certificate of authenticity.
- Limited mintage of 1,000 pieces.
- Features laser-engraved serial number and purity.

You can't walk into a shop and purchase an Android TV box pre-configured with piracy-enabling software, like those dodgy Kodi add-ons the entertainment industry is panicking over. Those tend to get shut down. So eBay and social media sites are popular ways of tracking one down. But even that's not safe for the sellers, with two eBay sellers managing to collect fines of £18,000 and £8,000 respectively.
According to the Federation Against Copyright Theft, which has been tackling the problem of Illicit Streaming Devices (ISDs, colloquially known as Kodi boxes), claims that the two sellers have agreed to pay the money to the Premier League for having facilitated piracy and selling boxes that were pre-configured to let people watch premium football matches without paying the rights holders.
Nayanesh Patel from Harrow allegedly sold the boxes on eBay and Facebook before getting caught. Because of that he's agreed to pay £18,000, disable his website, remove all advertising, and stop selling any new boxes. A second unnamed individual was caught selling premium IPTV subscriptions, which let people watch Premier League games illegally. He's agreed to pay £8,000 and stop selling access to streams.
Kevin Plumb, Premier League Director of Legal Services, said:
"This case shows there are serious consequences for sellers of pre-loaded boxes and is a warning for anyone who thinks they might get away with this type of activity.
The Premier League is currently engaged in a comprehensive copyright protection programme that includes targeting and taking action against sellers of pre-loaded devices, and any ISPs or hosts that facilitate the broadcast of pirated Premier League content."
While it's no surprise that online sellers are being targeted, given the insane popularity of illegal streaming boxes in this country, it's interesting to note that these two were seemingly targeted by FACT directly with no mention of police intervention. Why this is the case isn't clear, but it might be a more preferable option for both sides. There have been a number of high profile cases where Kodi box sellers have been prosecuted, but like all legal proceedings they proved themselves to be long drawn-out affairs.
This way sellers who know they're guilty get to skip all the problems of mounting a legal defence in court, and criminal charges, while FACT gets results faster and more easily than they might through the police. Though problems do arise if the organisation has been taking matters into its own hands, and demanding money from people in exchange for not getting the police involved. It's not clear whether that did happen, but that's copyright troll behaviour and it's not a precedent that should be set. [TorrentFreak]

The cemetery is the largest most crowded cemetery in Barbados and once a plantation is located in the north of Bridgetown on Westbury Road. Just as you leave the town centre via Cheapside, following on to Fontabelle and then Spring Gardens Highway, you turn right onto Westbury New Road and proceed the full length of this road to the T-junction with Westbury Road. The Westbury Cemetery is immediately opposite.
The oldest inhabitat of the 340 recorded (at present) is Ellen Blades (b.1861, d.1830). Families such as Austin, Blades, Boyce, Burton, Chase, Crawford, Evelyn, Hassell, Hinkson, Hutson, Lynch, Marshall, Phillips, Seale, Taylor, and Yearwood are amonst the names inturned on the site.
In 1928 Marian De-Wever was buried in the Westbury Cemetery. She emigrated to Barbados in 1925 with her wealthy Dutch husband, Vivian Arnold De-Wever, and their six children (two of whom are still living here). She is believed to be of the indigenous Lokono-Arawak tribes and sole surviving daughter of their last Chief Amorotahe Haubariria (Flying Harpy Eagle) of the Eagle Clan Lokono-Arawaks.
Westbury is one of the worlds oldest Military Cemeteries and contains five war graves of the British West Indies Regiment which are roughly grouped together. Another four war graves are scattered singly throughout the cemetery.
From the first world war Lance Corporal F. Grandison, an officer of the British West Indies Regiment (Service No. 15375) died on 13th of May 1919. Later from the second world war Captain J. D. Alleyne (Service No. 266310) of the Royal Army Medical Corps died on the 26th of December 1946.
Sad news
John wrote:- "Back in August 2007 a grave digger told me about the cows last time I was there looking for a grave … and to me, Westbury Cemetery is not exactly a fun place to visit."
Astonishingly our own will continuingly surprise us with the lack of care they can excercise. Local people often tie cows in Westbury Cemetery and their ropes/chains routinely knock over headstones and damage graves.
While the cows may keep the grass down in the Cemetery for free, it is not an official sanctioned maintenance method.
Small beginnings
The place of rest for the dearly departed is slowly becoming place of rest for the weary living. Increasingly every Christmas day at burial grounds in every parish of Barbados, relatives of some of the departed come to place flowers on their graves then sit and spend time with them.
At Westbury Cemetery in St Michael, as soon as the gates opened at 8 a.m., people are there ready to pay their respects. Soon a constant flow of young and old go to honour their relatives.
Michael Padmore, a former Sanitation Service Authority employee who worked at the Westbury Cemetery for many years and now maintains graves there as he puts it for "some of my people", watches the constant stream of people throughout the day.
It is definitely a tradition among many families to remember their departed at this time. Indeed, some families also come here to place flowers on the graves of their loved ones at Easter, Mother's Day and Father's Day, birthdays and other special anniversaries," he noted.
This was certainly the case with sisters Sonia and Juann Hewitt, from Woodstock Road, Spooner's Hill, St Michael, who went mid-morning to share a few minutes with their late sister June Redman who passed away in 2002. She was someone whom they noted loved Christmas, as they lovingly attended the flowers which they placed on the grave.
This is an activity which they repeat on Valentine's Day, Easter and the day that would have been her birthday. It is not only their sister whom they remembered, but their mother as well, whose gravesite they had earlier visited at the St Thomas Parish Church burial ground.
A little distance away was Pat Harris, for whom the visit was a hard one, but which she nevertheless undertook as a matter of duty. First she paid respects at the graveside of her late son Mark, who was killed in a vehicular accident, and then to her uncle, Kenneth Downie, who died a year ago. There she stood a few moments in quiet reflection before putting some water on the plants which covered the grave.
Another woman who came to honour her departed, simply sat in the back of the car and paid close attention as her chauffeur got out to reverently place the arrangement atop the grave before moving off to do similar duties at two other spots.
All the while, Padmore kept vigil awaiting his people, promising that he would not leave until they had all arrived. He said it did not matter whether he missed the traditional Christmas lunch; this was all about sharing and caring – of duty. [Dec 2005]
More History
John Mitchinson (1873-1881) once acted for five consecutive months, as Chaplain of the Westbury Cemetery. During that period he mentioned several abuses that he noticed – (1) disregard of punctuality; (2) the heartlessness and indifference of surviving relatives, especially in the case of infants, the little coffin taken under the arm of some indifferent person; (3) pauper funerals consisting solely of the hearse containing the black wooden shell with never a single mourner.
Michinson himself was an Oxford scholar obtaining three first Classes and was also an accomplished musician. He was consecrated in Canterbury Cathedral on the 24th of June 1873 but resigned the bishopric on 30th of June 1881 shortly before he pass on.
Of Recent Times
03/Jan/2008 – The artist-songwriter Winston Jordan was Interned in Westbury Cemetery. Known for his visual art, cartoons, costume designs and calypso songwriting he was 58 and passed away at his Collymore Rock, St Michael home Saturday 22 Dec 2007 in the morning after battling diabetes for some time. Jordan is survived by his daughter, Tricia (29), and son Winston Jr (28), who both live in the United States, his father Lionel Stuart, who lives in Canada, and his mother, Elaine Lawrence (75), and another son, Winslow (26), who both live in Barbados.
24/Jan/2007 – The bodies of ten of the 11 Senegalese men (having left the Cape Verde islands off west Africa in December 2005) who were discovered in April 2006 in a small boat off the island's east coast, were buried on 31st of January 2007 at Westbury Cemetery. The one body positively identified as 29-year-old Diao Souncar Dieme of Senegal was flown back home for a Muslim burial.
05/Jul/2006 – At least one grieving family and the friends of an 83-year-old woman had to take up shovels and cover her grave with soil to bury the loved one during a morning service after gravediggers in Barbados' largest cemetery went on a 10-hour strike to demand new boots. A total of 67 grave diggers and laborers at the Westbury Cemetery in the capital of Bridgetown picked up their shovels walked off the job early Tuesday citing a lack of rubber boots for use during the hurricane season as their main concern. Other demands of Barbados Sanitation Service members included new first-aid kits and structural repairs to facility buildings. "All the workers here are just fed up with conditions," said Anthony Eastmond, shop steward for the grave diggers' union.

"Start with Strategy" is one of our fundamental planning principles for using social media in health care. In many cases, however, stakeholders come to our team with specific tactical proposals without having done the necessary strategic thinking.
They may want a Facebook page to attract prospective patients, for example, but they haven't considered how Facebook's declining organic reach for pages will diminish its impact. So in most cases, we advise them to consider contributing content to our main Mayo Clinic Facebook page, which has more than 865,000 likes and will give their posts more reach than they'll get on a separate page.
Earlier this year I was prepared to give just such advice to Joseph Dearani, M.D., our chair of Cardiac Surgery at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, as he wanted to discuss creating another specialized Facebook page in addition to the one he maintains for Ebstein's Anomaly.
But when I heard how he was using that page, and the solid strategic thinking he had done, it was obvious we should encourage his initiative. On Tuesday I interviewed Dr. Dearani about how he and his secretary use Facebook pages. Here are some highlights:
The declining organic reach of Facebook pages doesn't concern Dr. Dearani because reach isn't his goal. He wants to provide educational videos and other resources to parents who are considering heart surgery for their children, and who have already contacted his office.
When parents call his secretary, she can easily direct them to the Ebstein's Anomaly - Mayo Clinic page on Facebook. And while he's happy to talk with them before they've explored the material, their review of the page answers many of their questions and triggers others they may not have yet considered.
The Facebook page helps them have a better, more informed conversation with Dr. Dearani, whether on the phone or when they come to Mayo Clinic for a surgical consultation. And it increases their confidence that Mayo Clinic is right for them.
Do you have similar Facebook strategy examples in your hospital's practice? We'd love to hear about them in the comments.
In our interview this week Dr. Dearani also discussed the effects of patient-led Facebook groups in cardiac surgery practice, as well as one particular case in which the Ebstein's Anomaly page facilitated discussion with an international patient's cardiologist who had been recommending against surgery. I'll share those highlights in future posts in this series.
Tags: Cardiac Surgery, Case Studies, Ebstein's Anomaly, Facebook, Joseph Dearani, M.D., Mayo Clinic, Strategy, Tactics & Best Practices
Great blogpost, @LeeAase. Looks like Dr. Dearani is essentially using Facebook as his public website – a trend that more physicians may want to follow. He makes a good point that most of his patients are there already, so access is really easy. @jkennedy93 – show this to your doctors!
What tools did you use to shoot and edit the video? Sound, lighting, and framing are just right! He's a great interview.

If you're shooting again, I would invest in a Lav mic for the ipHone. Not expensive and it will sound great.

The stand was @Margaret_Marie's elbows on the table. Mom always said you shouldn't do that during dinner, but it does help with stability. I edited with iMovie.
@Margaret_Marie has steady elbows! Thanks for the details.
great post. our nonprofit www. AMENSupport.org utilizes Facebook for most of our Social Media interaction. Lately we have been thinking that we would like to mover our clients to our website. Why? We have so many individuals and several times a mo. we have some unkind folks who make comments that are not helpful and causes riffs with other MEN folks. We do have a set of rules and people that do not follow the rules are given a warning and if the behavior continues we, unfortunately block them. HELP. Thank You Linda Hageman, RN

Why did you choose Empire State College? What do you think is the best thing about the college?
My parents encouraged me to return to school when I was home raising children. It was the best decision in my life to choose Empire State College and design my own degree program utilizing all of my previous courses and volunteer experiences. I enjoyed the online learning environment, not having to leave my home to complete the courses. I also mastered online learning environments beyond my comfort zone and continued on to an online masters of library science degree upon graduation from Empire State College.
What is your career highlight or proudest career moment to date?
Unfortunately my job situation did not change upon graduation but I have pursued a variety of volunteer experiences with more confidence.
What advice would you give to a current Empire State College student?
Enjoy the ride.
Anything else you would like to share with fellow alumni and students?
If you need to return to school its a great way to do it without giving up other areas of your life.

We've taken the kids traveling ever since they were born, pretty much. We live in Southern California and it's pretty tough to beat what our terrain has to offer. We've got hiking mountains all over. The beach is always just a few minutes away. Mammoth lakes and skiing is just a few short hours drive. Baja California/Mexico is south just a few hours too. The weather is gorgeous, although sometimes too hot, but you can't beat the clear, sunny skies. So when I say we've taken the kids traveling, I mean, we've tried to show them something different than what they're used to. For example, we're not going to Florida to Disney World when Disneyland is right here. However, going to New York is like wandering off to another planet. We've been there twice in the past few years and each time we try to visit new landmarks or places specifically known to New York. I don't' mind doing "touristy" things because many times those are the very places that make the city what it is. If you go there and don't have reservations, sometimes you can't get in, for example, the Statue of Liberty. Also, the line prices are very high. SmartDestinations.com has package deals for tourist attractions in many cities. I like that you can use their choices or customize your own tour. The savings are anywhere from 20-45%. Some attractions are hokey, but you don't have to choose those. I wish the site had explorer passes for more locations.

Near the northern tip of the island of Bali lies a stretch of
villages by the Bali Sea. Lovina Beach is the name. Lovina is really a
string of coastal villages to the west of Singaraja. Escape from the
hustle and bustle of Kuta to Lovina Beach located in north Bali, about
100 kilometers from southern tourist hotspots. It is well known as an
excellent site for sunset watching, snorkeling, and diving. Darkly
beautiful, Lovina offers quiet and calm, and is popular Asian tourists
and those avoiding the hustle and bustle of the southern beaches. A
number of coves offer tranquil, protected waters and Lovina is one of
them. Although the sand is grey, it is quiet and peaceful, and popular
among those who shun the glitzier beach resorts of the south. It is a
popular place for dolphin watching; dolphins play in the water off
Lovina. Famous for its early morning dolphin-watching boat trips, Lovina
also offers good snorkeling and diving, and trekking in the nearby
mountains. Diving off Menjangan Island, part of the Bali Barat National
Park, is generally regarded as the best in Bali. Boats are readily
available to take divers over to the island, where there are no
residents or hotels.

"Temperature dependent growth and fission rate plasticity drive seasonal and geographic changes in body size in a clonal sea anemone"
Posted on
Will H. Ryan (Feb 2018)
Fission rate plasticity allows clonal animals to track rapid changes in optimal body size through time and space
Phenotypic plasticity, or the ability of individuals to continuously refine their morphology in response to changing conditions, presents a major challenge when predicting the ecological and evolutionary effects of environmental change. The "temperature-size rule" is a commonly observed pattern in animals where individuals grow to be smaller as adults when conditions are warmer. In aquatic animals, this pattern may reflect an increasing risk of oxygen limitation as water warms, favoring smaller bodied animals with a higher surface area to volume ratio. Clonal animals may be able to change size throughout their lives by adjusting the rate at which they grow versus divide. This flexibility may allow them to track a changing optimal body size as the environment changes, but can also influence patterns of investment in asexual and sexual reproduction.
Using lab experiments and field observations, Will H. Ryan demonstrated that changes in the fission rate and average body size of the clonal sea anemone, Diadumene lineata, follow seasonal temperature changes. He grew anemones collected from across the species' US Atlantic range (Florida, Georgia, and Massachusetts) in chambers mimicking seasonal temperature patterns found at these sites. The year-long experiment showed that annual patterns of growth, size, and clonal investment are highly dependent on local temperature patterns, leading to a gradient in the degree of asexuality expressed across the species range. Northern populations stay large and divide infrequently, whereas southern sites stay small and divide all year. Intermediate sites alternate between phases of individual growth and clonal proliferation. Variation in the response among individuals from different sites suggests that natural selection may be able to shape these patterns.
For organisms with complex life cycles, like these sea anemones, environmental variation not only alters the speed of growth and development, but can also change the timing and nature of major life history events, such as fission.
The temperature-size rule (TSR) is a commonly observed pattern where adult body size is negatively correlated with developmental temperature. In part, this may occur as a consequence of allometric scaling, where changes in the ratio of surface area to mass limit oxygen diffusion as body size increases. As oxygen demand increases with temperature, a smaller body should be favored as temperature increases. For clonal animals, small changes in growth and/or fission rate can rapidly alter the average body size of clonal descendants. Here I test the hypothesis that the clonal sea anemone Diadumene lineata is able to track an optimal body size through seasonal temperature changes using fission rate plasticity. Individuals from three regions (Florida, Georgia and Massachusetts) across the species' latitudinal range were grown in a year-long reciprocal common garden experiment mimicking seasonal temperature changes at three sites. Average body size was found to be smaller and fission rates higher in warmer conditions, consistent with the TSR pattern. However, seasonal size and fission patterns reflect a complex interaction between region-specific thermal reaction norms and the local temperature regime. These details provide insight into both the range of conditions required for oxygen limitation to contribute to a negative correlation between body size and temperature and the role that fission rate plasticity can play in tracking a rapidly changing optimal phenotype.

By Johannes – 3rd Year Student
"What's your question?" is a sentence you will hear a lot at Quest. But what actually is a Question? And why do we bother with this whole thing in the first place? My name is Johannes and I am a third year at Quest. (This means that I actually do have a Question, but I won't tell you what it is quite yet. Let us explore the meaning of it first).
Quest was founded on the idea of being different and innovative. But what does that actually mean? How is one different? What does innovation look like? These are questions which were asked by our founders.
But we quickly realized that a central theme of modern universities is the declaration of a "major", meaning: the major field of study that you will focus on in your academic career. This idea holds for all levels of a university education, be that undergraduate, graduate or doctoral, and reflect a theme of focusing on a specific piece of knowledge in academia.
There are some obvious benefits to the singular focus on a specific field of knowledge. For example, the ability to delve deep into a subject, or in the words of one of our presidents, "learn more and more, about less and less" (Helfand, 2013). But at the same time, this structure can become very restraining. "But what if I like music and physics? Or politics and biology? Or all of the above?" are concerns we often hear from students, which are then forced to make a choice. Is it a major in music, physics, politics or biology? This is somewhat remedied by the introduction of a minor, but even that can feel insufficient.
So, our founders engraved a single concept into the university which is reflected even in our architecture: true interdisciplinarity.
Recognizing that any given world problem cannot be solved with one discipline alone (does the solution for climate change lie in economics or meteorology? Is poverty political science or agriculture?), and therefore must be approached with different disciplines in mind, we created the Question program.
What this means is that at some point in the latter part of your second year or the beginning part of your third year at Quest, you take a course called "Question". In this course, for about a month, it is your job to write and defend a detailed plan about what your academic future will hold. Which disciplines do you want to look at? Why do you want to look at them? How will that help you later in life? And finally, what will your Question be?
This process can be extremely eye-opening to some and very confusing to others, depending on how much you have engaged in that kind of thinking before. The value of a Question is that you do not have to decide between any discipline or subject, and it is actually encouraged to build bridges between them. We truly believe that the ultimate learning experience comes out of recognizing the different relationships that disciplines hold. How does a scientist think different about a problem, than a historian just by virtue of their field?
Oh, and by the way, the purpose of Quest and the Question program is not to answer them, but to ask ever more insightful questions (ha-ha!). Because every new question you ask holds a little more truth than the last one. No one at Quest has ever been able, or will ever be able, to answer their Question. But the questions asked by our students, just get better and better each year. So, when you come out of Quest the questions you ask about a particular subject, will demonstrate a wealth of understanding an insight into a particular subject. And that, in my opinion, is infinitely more valuable than any answer you might think you had.
And back to my Question before I forget. I am asking "How do we distribute power in a multipolar system?" focusing on international relations, economics and history. Don't worry, I can talk about this for hours. So if you are wondering what that actually means, come to Quest and find out!

Gravity has never been my friend.
I have tripped over dogs, toys and people. Fallen down stairs, over curbs and through doorways. I've broken my elbow, sprained my ankle and on one particularly memorable occasion, both broken and dislocated my knee.
I've spent more than my fair share of time in the ER. I've been escorted there by family, driven by coworkers, and, in the Case of the Broken Dislocated Knee, arrived by ambulance. I've had so many X-rays that I'm beginning to fear I might eventually suffer from radiation poisoning.
There are almost always bruises on some part of my anatomy. I bump into counters. Run smack into walls. Try to walk through large, heavy things, like cement blocks. There is nothing and nowhere that is adequately protected from my supreme gracelessness.
If klutziness were a superpower, I would be the undisputed Queen of Klutzes.
So it's never been a question of if I would fall with my daughter in my arms, but when. The answer? October 10, 2009. That's right. She made it a whole six months and one week without having her life endangered by her well-meaning mother.
You know what's even better? I fell up the stairs. That's right, up. That takes talent, people.
It was 8:30 a.m., and it'd already been a bad morning. I had already slipped on a stray piece of tulle (someday I'll learn to pick up after myself). I'd stepped squarely in a pile of cold cat vomit. Tori had spit floods of regurgitated formula right down my shirt. And to top it all off, she peed on the carpet while I was wiping her poop off the yoga mat we use to change her.
Like I said, it was a bad morning.
We were on our way up to the bathroom to clean up her latest bout of explosiveness when it happened. One minute, I was climbing up the stairs, telling Tori that I really hoped this would be her only bath of the day. The next, my toe was hooked inside the leg of my pajama pants (I told you I'm Super Talented), and I was flying toward the floor, baby held squarely in front of me.
For one terrified instant, I thought I was about to land on her, squishing the life from her fragile body. Fortunately, the powers that be lent me the ability to twist myself into a pretzel so that I landed half on my side, with Tori safely clutched to my chest.
I patted her down, making sure she was okay (she was fine. surprised, but fine). Then I leaned up against the wall and did my usual post-fall inventory. Nothing was broken, but my back hurt. As did my poor, much abused knee.
That's when I burst into tears.
Not just because I was in pain, or because I'd have to spend my birthday hopped up on pain killers, but because I knew that this might have been the first time I put my child's life in danger, but it was by no means the last.
Tori better hurry up and learn to walk. Because my arms? Are not a safe place to be.

Recent advances in drug discovery allowed access to powerful technologies that have a prominent virtual screening component. One of the chief difficulties in using these technologies is their requirement for interdisciplinary expertise in physical sciences, life sciences, statistical analyses and computer science. Therefore, the purpose of Virtual Screening is to help facilitate the employment of these new technologies in the process of drug discovery.
This volume describes a group of virtual screening methods and techniques that are used currently in modern drug discovery. The first section describes mixing pharmacophore modeling with classical quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) analysis as powerful combination to enrich bioactivity among virtual screening hits. The next part of the book tries to evaluate recent advances and future trends on the emerging promising role of graphics processing units (GPUs) as platforms for virtual screening-based drug discovery, in particular in molecular dynamics simulations. The latter parts of the book discuss several examples on the use of virtual screening methods based on combinations of pharmacophore modeling and Comparative Molecular Field Analysis (CoMFA) or Comparative Molecular Similarity Indices Analysis (CoMSIA) for the discovery of anticancer, anti-leshmanial and acetylcholineesterase inhibitory agents. In each chapter, every effort has been made to incorporate detailed procedures, including software and its use, related to these technologies.
Virtual Screening is directed to those interested in the different aspects of drug design that include academicians (pharmacists, chemists), and scientists at pharmaceutical companies.
In all, this book is designed to provide readers not only with the planned insightful overview of key topics, but also with the customary ample supply of unfailing reproducible step-by-step procedures for techniques described.

YIPPEE!! It's Thankful Thursday! I have come to LOVE this day. Remembering your blessings is great, but taking the time to put them down just makes it all seem so much more real. This week, I am thankful for...
1. Abbigail, my big girl...I still can't believe she's 7.
2. Andrew & Bethany...my little loves.
3. Warren...thank you for taking care of us and making me laugh (thanks for appreciating me, dear!)!
4. air conditioning! It was 95 here yesterday, and the first day we used our AC this year.
5. moderate temps....today is supposed to be back to a high of 82, no need for the AC!
6. my blogging buddies...I have been doing this blog for less than a month, and have already "met" a bunch of nice ladies.
7. coffee with sugar free french vanilla creamer...YUMMY!
8. Proverbs...I am reading through the Bible, and recently finished the Psalms, and am more than 1/2 way through Proverbs. My favorite verse from today's reading is Chapter 16, Vs 31, "Gray hair is a crown of splendor; it is attained by a righteous life." I've been getting a lot of gray hair lately, and as dark as my hair is, the grays REALLY stick out. I know it's a vain thing, but it's really starting to bug me. Thank you God, for showing me that gray hair is nothing to be ashamed about! (This is only partially tongue-in-cheek)...there are SO MANY wonderful Proverbs...I can't wait to get to 31 & meditate on it for a few days!
9. T-ball and Softball...it's so much fun to go watch my kiddos play, and I get time to talk to other mommies...I love this mommy-talk time! I love getting to know other mommies better!
10. generous friends and family...I posted earlier this week about a wonderful package from my mother-in-law, and the blessing of a family pool pass from a family at church. What a blessing, and I am so thankful!
11. sleep, and getting to sleep in on summer mornings!
12. that the amox....is finally starting to work on my little ones. They are still coughing, but not NEARLY as bad! Thank You, God for returning their health!!!!!!!
13. God's love, faithfulness, forgiveness, and promises fulfilled. Thank You, God for never leaving me, even when I don't follow you. Please continue to lead me as I continue to try to follow you. Please show us the answers we seek. Thank you for forgiving our "great and many sins." (My grandfather used to finish every prayer with this phrase...I miss him! He passed away in January, and this weekend there will be an auction to sell his belongings...God, please give my mom and her siblings strength they need to see his possessions being sold and separated.)
I could go on and on...so much to be thankful for, but I NEED to get going...T-ball in 30 minutes!!!!!

Honnavar: Two Muslim men were brutally assaulted for allegedly trafficking cattle on Wednesday by a group of around 150 right-wing activists in Honnavar, a port town in Uttara Kannada District in Karnataka.
A mob of over hundred 'Gau Rakshaks' forcefully stopped the vehicle of the two men and severely injured them, Mohammed Ismail, a relative of the victims said, as per a report by SahilOnline. Nurulameen Mukhtasar (40) and Ghufran Pothe (35) were returning to Bhatkal at around 11:30 pm after purchasing two buffaloes and a bull from Ankola when they were beaten up, he added.
Nurul said "We were legally transporting cattle from Ankola on Wednesday for a wedding, suddenly, some people in an SUV started chasing us. It was a coordinated attack as a mob of about 150 people was waiting for us in Honnavar. They attacked us as soon as we reached the town, later police rescued us."
The two men were not admitted to Mangaluru hospital to keep the assault hidden from media, Ismail claimed. Instead, they were taken to Karwar hospital. Nurul got a hand fractured along with other serious injuries. While Ghufran received multiple injuries on his back and stomach, he added.
Nurul and Ghufran were then shifted to Manipal KMC hospital for better treatment. While Uttara-Kannada Superintendent of Police (SP), P Vinayak Patil, said that Honnavar police have already filed a case under IPC section 307 (attempt to murder) against the assailants and have also arrested four people in this connection. The further investigation is on, Patil said.

Bicentenary Celebrations (2017-2019)
Between 2017 and 2019, Bahá'ís across Canada are celebrating significant anniversaries in the history of the Bahá'í Faith. 2017 marked the bicentenary of the birth of Bahá'u'lláh, the prophet and founder of the Bahá'í Faith. 2019 will be the bicentenary of the birth of the Báb, the prophet-herald of the Bahá'í Faith.
Born in 1817 in Tehran, Bahá'u'lláh is revered around the world as the most recent of history's Messengers from God, whose purpose has been to guide humanity towards the advancement of human civilization.
Bahá'u'lláh's teachings revolve around the oneness of humanity, and His Revelation signals a special time in history as the entire human race moves to a new stage in its collective maturity and wholeness. The challenges and tribulations of this transitional phase in the story of humanity resemble the changes encountered as a person passes through adolescence and becomes an adult. The world is on the threshold of an age in which education for all, equality of women and men, a just and equitable system of governing the earth, and upholding science and religion will be among the values and achievements of a prosperous and peaceful society.
The coming of Bahá'u'lláh was foretold by the Báb, whose name means "the Gate" in Arabic. Appearing in mid-19th century Persia, the Báb led a movement calling for spiritual and moral reformation, which paid particular attention to the position of women and the poor. He established a new religion, and his followers responded to government repression with great acts of heroism. The Báb foretold the imminent appearance of a new Messenger of God, who would guide humanity into a new era of peace and justice promised in all the world's religions: Bahá'u'lláh.
The Birth of Bahá'u'lláh and the Birth of the Báb are celebrated as twin holy days, and festivities encompass both days with events spread over a 48-hour period. The dates of Bahá'í days can be found here.
More information about this topic and others is available on Bahai.org, the official website of the worldwide Bahá'í community:

In the future, homes will have a wireless network for all products. To bridge the technology gap until then, the PLUG + PLAY wireless speaker system makes all ones music available, regardless if it is stored on cell phones, PCs or MP3 players. The transparent speakers deliver high sound quality and blend into most interiors. Audio files are transmitted from ones device to PLAY by small PLUG elements.
The plugs were to be plugged into many different mp3 players, computers, cell phones etc.. it needed to be comprehended as a part of the system. The result is a system of speakers with bluetooth receiver, and plugs with bluetooth sender.
The plugs dock into the side of the speaker for charging, and in the speaker has a transparent LCD-display in the glass, providing information about song title, equalizer, etc.

Where can I get wireless data collection software for my blackberry and Motorola. I have been trying to find something for months now. It needs to support drop down menus, gps, check boxes, maybe capture photos, and bar coding. Please help
I have been working in marketing industry for about 5 years and we found a solution that does this. We use it for wireless bar code reading and GPS tracking. The best part is we can customize the forms on-the-fly which saves us a lot of time over a customized solution. The company that makes the product is Westlake out of LA I think. There website is www.westlakesoftware.com. Their product is call AirMobility.net. They made a custom Extranet for us for our company to use but their main product site is www.airmobility.net. We found this service set up to make it pretty easy for us to migrate the information to our back office system. We use the technology and route it to 40 different servers nationally; has worked flawlessly for about three years. I am note sure if this will match your exact needs but it is what we have been using and it has been working pretty well for us.

Behind The Bib
Being a working mom is a pretty tough balance and I'd be lying if I acted like I did it all on my on. It takes a village. Not only to help create the beautiful content that I get to share with you, but to give me the ability to do what I love to do. I believe if you surround yourself with people who inspire you, support you and teach you, that's how you'll make it to the top. The juggle is real and without this brilliant circle of support I would absolutely not have the time or peace of mind to work while taking care of my daughter, nor would I have all of the creative juices to make The Black Bib come together each week!

Differences Between Dance Team, Competition Dance And Studio Dance
Traditional African dances were shaped throughout the tribes (communities) and taught to the kids in the tribe from a young age. No formal dance coaching was required and it was previous down from era to era.
In accordance with the beginning, the usual Legong dancers are two women who have not gotten her period, danced within the moonlight within the palace courtyard. Both dancers, referred to as Legong, all the time geared up with a fan as a tool. In some Legong dance there's an extra dancer, known as skew, which is not outfitted with a fan. The dance that comes from Cirebon is a dance that has existed since long ago. Its creator was the sultan of Cirebon that could be very well known, specifically Sunan Gunung Jati. This dance is normally performed by one or more lady dancers accompanied by the typical punch of the musical instrument corresponding … Read more

Random Writing Thoughts
I've been doing some research while writing my crap. And it's made me wonder.
- People say that vampires cry blood tears. So does that mean that other vampire bodly fluids will be blood too? Or are all these romance writers not thinking about the logic of vampire sex? They're not only shooting blanks, they're shooting blood. EWWWWW.
- What is it about menages featuring brothers, twins even? Shouldn't that skeeve people out? Isn't that just a little too close to incest? I like hear banjo music and shit. Note to self: NEVER have relatives jumping into bed with the heroine at the same time, if at all.
- I thought about doing Nanowrimo, then realized that I suck at deadlines and I really don't want to tell anybody that I'm writing the stuff I'm writing anyway. Too many questions, and I'm not in the mood to tell and kill.

The International Olympic Committee steps up drug tests ahead of Winter Games
- Details
- Published on 19 January 2018
- Written by slbc news
The International Olympic Committee says more than 14,000 anti-doping tests on more than 6,000 athletes have been conducted in the lead up to the Winter Games scheduled in Pyeongchang next month.
Russian athletes were particularly targeted, twice as much as those from any other country. The country was banned from the Winter Games in early December by the International Olympic Committee over state-sponsored doping, at the last Winter Olympics in Sochi in 2014. Although Russia has been banned from the Olympics, those athletes who have never failed a drug test can compete in South Korea under strict conditions. They will be allowed to compete as neutrals but will not be permitted to wear the Russian kit, use their country's flag or hear its anthem, should they win gold.
The International Olympic Committee stresses that the sporting integrity of the Games is vital, and they are committed to working to ensure that Pyeongchang 2018 provides a level playing field for all clean athletes.
