That One Thing
"What a waste" – that's what we say when we have known someone who was bright, talented, competent, and highly skilled, but (say it slowly) one thing about that person's character got in the way. The one obstacle, after achieving great success, that one thing is the very thing that can sabotage everything he or she worked so hard to achieve.
On the national stage, people fell in love with Michael Vick's abilities on the football field. He had it all; his whole career was ruined by that one thing. It started with a well known gesture to the crowd, then it progressed into the ultimate thing that falls on many who venture on to the stage of mega success, Pride. Many times it isn't evidenced by one thing but the ultimate one thing that can fail all of us, pride. Pride exposes our true character or lack thereof.
It's a caution flag for those mustangs among us (me, for example) who would subconsciously put their own plans ahead of God's and pawn them off as God's plan, a la Peter. Jesus was putting all disciples on red alert against the dark corners of sin, pride, fear, and other unexamined or ignored character dysfunctions that could make them vulnerable to attack in the midst of their ministry. Any number of Christian leaders, yea any of us, could testify to this very dynamic of self-destruction. We all are prone to getting stuck, bound to something inside us that could easily undermine our best intentions.
He will allow you to be sifted by Satan himself or by trial or circumstance, whatever it takes to break the foothold of pride and self-sufficiency out of you. Got your attention? Remember, Satan is allowed to be wherever darkness is welcomed. And pride is like a sky-banner invitation to come to your party.
Thank you Father, for reminding me to keep my self-adulation in check.

Since the launch of the BBC Micro from Acorn in 1981, the solo programmer – often a freelancer or contractor – has become a staple of British entrepreneurial spirit and creativity.
Even today, freelance web developers, app programmers, computer security consultants, digital forensics specialists, graphic designers, software testers, and other professionals make up a significant proportion of the UK's IT industry.
Specialists for Specialists
Here at PaperRocket, we concentrate on the intricacies of accountancy for contractors and freelancers. We recognise that the nature of the freelance job makes for complicated accounting and variable income, and we can help you through the various pitfalls.
To really handle your accountancy needs you want someone who understands the complexities of your day-to-day finances and can most easily help you keep on top of taxes and other outgoings.
We can be there for you from the start onward; we offer three tiers of service providing different levels of support and aimed at different budgets which a fledgling contractor can progress upward through until they find their level, or where an established freelancer might choose the one that seems best and stick with it happily.
We'll even help you if you're looking at becoming a limited company.
Make the Best Use of your Time
If there's anything that everyone in the IT industry will agree on, it's that a job handled by a specialist will be completed faster and better than a job given to someone who just knows the basics.
Your time is valuable and can be best spent doing work for your clients at your hourly rate, rather than losing a long time to handle your accounts when we could get it done faster and better for you.
If you want us to help you, you can get in touch here, on the phone at 0800 024 8760, or by email at [email protected].

France returns after a five year absence to host the second Downhill round of the 2009 Nissan UCI Mountain Bike World Cup this weekend, with the city of La Bresse the host.
New Zealand athletes provide a strong presence at this event with several professional athletes on spectacular form.
2006 Junior World Champion Cam Cole (Maxxis) is coming off a breakthrough 6th place at the first World Cup in Pietermariztburg, RSA. Justin Leov (Trek) currently holds a World ranking of 5th and will be looking to continue his regular top ten form, being a genuine podium contender at La Bresse.
Wyn Masters (Ancillotti) also carries good form into this event, having placed 2nd at the Townhill urban downhill event in Bergamo, Italy last weekend. Master's Ancillotti teammate Brook MacDonald is competing in his first World Cup this year and is also coming off a great result, a 2nd overall at Pielle in France against world class elite level competition. MacDonald will be one of the form juniors at La Bresse and joins another blazing Hawkes Bay junior, Aari Barrett (Scott) who currently leads the Junior World Downhill Cup standings after finishing as first junior in South Africa.
Seasoned campaigner Nathan Rankin (Playbiker) is back in Europe this year at his first World Cup of the season, and together with Kieran Bennett (X-Fusion) completes the World Cup professional team kiwi roster at this event.
Two NZ privateers are also competing this weekend. 2007 Junior World Championship bronze medalist Matt Scoles is back on the World Cup circuit after an injury related absence in 2008, and Tauranga's Hayden Lee makes his World Cup debut.
Live coverage from La Bresse can be seen courtesy of www.freecaster.tv or www.mtbcut.tv just after midnight on Sunday May 10th

High Resolution Patterning with Organosilicon Block Copolymers: A Progress Report
Prof. Grant Willson received his BS and Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry from the University of California at Berkeley and an MS degree in Organic Chemistry from San Diego State University. He joined the faculties of the Departments of Chemical Engineering and Chemistry at the University of Texas at Austin in 1993. He came to the University of Texas from his position as an IBM Fellow and Manager of the Polymer Science and Technology area at the IBM Almaden Research Center in San Jose, California. He joined IBM after serving on the faculties of California State University, Long Beach and the University of California, San Diego. He has supervised the PhD degrees of more than 80 graduate students. His research can be characterized as the design and synthesis of functional organic materials with emphasis on materials for microelectronics. These include liquid crystalline materials, polymeric non-linear optical materials, novel photoresist materials, block copolymers, materials for Imprint Lithography, etc. This work is supported by grants from both government and industry.
|He is a Fellow of IBM, the ACS, SPIE, PMSE and the MRS. He is a member of the National Academy of Engineering and Associate Editor of ACS Nano. He is the co-author of more than 300 journal publications, editor and author of several books and co-inventor on more than 40 issued patents. His work has been recognized by a number of awards including the National Medal of Technology and Innovation which was presented by President Bush and the 2013 Japan Prize, which he shared with Professor Jean Fréchet.
Block polymers for DSA applications based on A-(B-random-C) architectures
Prof. Paul Nealey is a pioneer of directed self-assembly, which is becoming very important in microelectronics processing to create patterns for integrated circuits. He is one of the world's leading experts on patterning organic materials, literally creating physical patterns of structure and composition in the materials at the nanometer length scale, where the patterns affect the function of the materials.
Many of Nealey's collaborative projects with Juan de Pablo have focused on block copolymer films, which spontaneously self-assemble to form structures with dimensions that range from three to 50 nanometers. Nealey's experimental and de Pablo's computational teamwork extends even to jointly advised doctoral students. Their approach has become so powerfully productive that other institutions seek to replicate their formula for success with their own research teams.
Nealey's interest in tissue engineering of corneal prosthetic devices, pursued in collaboration with a veterinary ophthalmologist, demonstrates the versatility of his expertise in fabricating nanostructured surfaces.
|Nealey holds 14 patents and is the author of more than 180 publications. His honors include fellowship in the American Physical Society, the 2010 Nanoscale Science and Engineering Forum Award from the American Institute of Chemical Engineers, and a 2009 Inventor Recognition Award from Semiconductor Research Corporation.

A Question Regarding the 4castsSeptember 11th, 2009 by Gavok |
Let's just say, hypothetically, that I were to start getting my own segment on the 4th Letter podcast. A segment where I talk about any given subject for several minutes before returning the show to David and Esther. Anyone have any suggestions on things you'd like to hear me go on and on about? Don't overthink it. Hell, even saying something as simple as "Gambit" works.
Just no Venom, Deadpool or Jeph Loeb. They've all been covered to death.

Our last hair tutorial was dedicated to all of our stunning redhead + brunette readers, but today we're highlighting the blondes (pun intended)! As many of us know, if you have blonde hair, or even blonde highlights added to brunette or red hair, that fresh, clean bright blonde can turn brassy real fast if it's not properly maintained. Our friends over at John Frieda's Destination Blonde have worked really hard to develop a special formula called Everlasting Blonde to keep your stunning shade right where you want it from day one.
- It's important to start any hairstyle with a clean canvas. Use a generous amount of John Frieda Everlasting Blonde Shampoo. Work up a nice lather and make sure you really get into the lower/back of your head. People often make the mistake of missing this section which can lead to limp locks.
- Speaking of locks, next you'll apply John Frieda Everlasting Blonde Conditioner to lock in moisture and tone by closing that cuticle!
- Once out of the shower, towel dry and comb through.
- Blow dry and follow the tutorial above to create a long lasting, classic curl.
Whether you wear your hair curled as Lauren shows us up top using a 1 & 1/2 inch barrel curling iron and setting clips, or wear it up in this super cute fishtailed topknot (tutorial coming soon), you can finish off the look by using John Frieda Crystal Clear Hair Spray to keep that beautiful blonde protected.
Hashtag #myblondelife on Instagram so we can see just who are blonde bombshell readers are! Then check out keepupyourblonde.com — a destination for all types of blonde hair (and maybe some exclusive photos of our lovely Lauren Conrad!).(TBD is proud to have partnered with our lovely friends at John Frieda to bring you this post.)

Sprinkle yeast over warm water in small bowl. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
Beat butter in large bowl until creamy. Beat in sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs. On low speed, beat in molasses, ground ginger, half the crystallized ginger, cinnamon, salt, pepper and 2 cups bread flour. On low speed, beat in yeast mixture and 1/3 cup flour until smooth.
Stir in some of remaining flour. Continue adding flour until dough is workable with hands without sticking. Use any remaining flour to dust work surface. Knead dough until soft and elastic, about 5 minutes. Transfer to large greased bowl, turning to coat. Cover with clean towel. Let rise in warm place until doubled in volume, about 2 hours.
Coat 9-1/2 x 4-inch tube pan with nonstick cooking spray. Punch down dough. Divide dough into 3 equal pieces. Using hands, roll each piece into 22-inch-long rope. Place ropes side by side, touching. Gently press one end of each rope onto work surface. This is top of braid. Begin braiding ropes, by lifting left rope across and over middle rope. Next, take right rope and lift it across and over new middle rope. Continue alternating sides, always lifting outside rope across and over middle rope, gently tugging on ropes to stretch slightly. Gently form braid into ring; press ends of ring together, sealing with a little water. Transfer to prepared tube pan. Cover with cloth. Let rise in warm place until doubled in volume, 45 to 60 minutes.
Heat oven to 350°F. Bake risen braid in 350°F oven for about 35 minutes or until puffed and lightly browned. Remove inner section of tube pan, then remove bread to rack; you may need to run a knife around edges of pan if it sticks.
While bread cools, heat sugar and water in small saucepan over medium heat until sugar is completely dissolved. Let syrup cool slightly. Brush over top of braid. Sprinkle with remaining tablespoon chopped crystallized ginger. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Don't be too surprised if Phil "Sussudio" Collins heads into the stu-stu-studio to make a new album soon - maybe another Disney soundtrack a laTarzan
- or calls up his old Genesis mates for an encore to last year's "farewell" tour. Its 13-date North American leg skipped Houston anyway, so that would be cool - I always did like "Land of Confusion."
Collins, 57, has agreed to pay third wife Orianne Cevey £25 million - or around $46 million - in what UK Web site Digital Spy calls Britain's biggest-ever celebrity divorce settlement: "He is now estimated to be paying nearly a third of his rumored £140 million fortune ($260 million) to his former partners." The couple married in 1999 and have two children.
Genesis, "Land of Confusion" - this freaks me out every time I watch it.
Collins agreed to a £17 million ($31 million, using the current exchange rate) settlement with second wife Jill Tavelman in 1994. Rocks Off did a little digging and found some more rock-star divorce dirt after the jump.

An interactive, accessible and user-focussed website design was built for the QILT website to enable and encourage users to easily and quickly find and compare student experience data.
The Australian Government Department of Education required a revised QILT website that would provide students with the information they most value when selecting a higher education institution.
A new design was developed using a responsive/adaptive approach to provide an optimised interface that was scalable across a wide range of devices and particularly focused on:
The designs encompassed development of designs to represent complex tables, charts and a widget for comparing institutions and study areas across all Australian institutions.
The development report was derived from the following research:
User testing was also conducted for branding and design purposes to ensure the site has a clear, unique and distinct identity.

Läste ett inlägg från en lärarkollega och tillika fackligt ombud i söder med en fundering hur han som mentor för en högstadieklass skulle prioritera den för oss alla begränsade tiden och kraften. Den aktuella frågan gällde utdelande av busskort till elever, här citerad högst fritt ur minnet:
Ska jag ta halva första kemilektionen – ett av flera ämnen där antalet undervisningstimmar inte räcker till i förhållande till kunskapskrav, förmågor och centralt innehåll – till att dela ut busskorten? Eller ska jag vänta till första mentorstillfället, samtidigt som eleverna då inte får sina busskort första skolveckan?
Om det är att anse som ett problem eller ett dilemma kan diskuteras, men jag kommenterade att på skolan där jag arbetar så skulle vi sannolikt göra en variant på:
Du elev som behöver busskort kan hämta det på expeditionen på dessa tider: mån, tis, ons, kl 8-8.30, 10-11, 15-16. Vems busskort är det egentligen? Var bör ansvaret för det ligga?
Jag tänker inte bara på lärarens begränsade tid och kraft
. Jag tänker även på det för framtiden gynnsamma förhållningssätt som vi faktiskt tränar i vardagen när vi låter elever ta ansvar över sådant som de bör ha ansvar över . Självklart utifrån ålder och mognad, men min kommentar la jag utifrån att de allra flesta tioåringar skulle klara detta om det bara avkrävdes dem och tränades in direkt från start. Att expeditionen har en hel del annat att göra och inte kan vara öppen dygnet runt förstår alla och envar, därför kan det vara bra med tydliga tider att träna på.
Bara för att något kan göras av en lärare,
betyder det inte att det ska göras av en lärare.
Självklart handlar det om professionella bedömningar utifrån kontext och vad varje individ kan förväntas klara av. De få barn som inte skulle klara detta skulle jag bistå. Men långsiktigt behöver elever i allmänhet hjälp att utveckla mer gynnsamma förhållningssätt än curling-bäras-under-armarna.

text: The Whole Story—The Franken/Coleman Recount & Election Contest Letting people see the whole story can sometimes change the course of history. In 2008, Minnesota's US Senate race was decided by a several hundred votes out of more than two million cast. The recount and resulting election contest dragged on for nearly eight months. At stake: the 60th Democratic vote that could thwart a Republican filibuster. In today's hyper-partisan politics you might expect a race this close with so much at stake would be appealed to the US Supreme Court. At minimum you'd expect that the losing party would gain a lot of media attention by claiming the election had been stolen. Normally that would be true, but in this case the media didn't give those claims any credibility. Why? Because the media and the rest of the world had been able to watch every moment of the recount and election contest live. On top of that, there was an indisputable video record of every moment. All of this thanks to The UpTake which livestreamed every day of the recount and trial. "The UpTake showed the world that Minnesota is not Florida" said Senator Al Franken in praise of his state's "homegrown citizen journalism" organization. Thanks to The UpTake's strong commitment to covering the whole story, and letting people see the events as they happened without commentary, Minnesota's reputation for clean elections was not only intact, but enhanced. So how did The UpTake accomplish a task that the much better-funded TV stations were unwilling to do? You made it happen. When we were nearly out of money to cover the trial we turned to you and you came through. Small donations from hundreds of people kept our coverage going. Without them, the transparency we were providing would have ceased. And who knows what would have happened? Let's not contemplate that. Instead, send us a donation to keep shining the light of video on the whole story and the truth.

East Will Take Over the My Thai Space Next Month
The Hot Woks Cool Sushi team has the new restaurant all planned out—casual, healthy spins on sushi, ramen, and stir fry.
And lo, East (8 E. Van Buren St., 312-986-0999) will rise in the Loop. The owners of Hot Woks Cool Sushi bought the space housing My Thai, and they plan a casual, 130-seat Asian restaurant serving sushi, stir-fry, and ramen.
East will lean healthy, with touches such as toasted flaxseed in some rolls, and gluten-free options, including no-flour tempura and no-wheat soy sauce. "It's easy to cook vegetarian and it's easy to cook gluten-free. It's not easy to make it taste good," says Lois Lee, who owns the restaurant group with her husband, David.
My Thai will close at 3 p.m. today, and the Lees hope to go East in early January, after a renovation to rustic-modern decor. Sounds like they know what direction this place will take.

When Lt. Brendan Connolly a New York City Firefighter was responding to a local emergency, the dangers of being a firefighter were always in the back of his mind. Smoke, trapped locations, innocent victims needing help.
However, the roads of New York City are often so dilipadated and filled with potholes and ruts that when his fire truck hit a recurring defect in a city street of Cypress Hills, Queens his life would change forever.
As reported here in the New York Post, Lt. Connolly fractured his spine and has been rendered disabled from working because of a sinkhole that has been recurring. Neighbors report that this problem has been recurring for years. Yet, the ability to legally recover against the City of New York for this defect is fraught with many hurdles. Some nearly impossible to overcome.

EDMONTON -- They call it the transporter.
It "beams" the kids from one home to another in the blink of an eye.
The technology is pretty mundane, to be honest. The fuel source? Ah, that is as magical as anything imaginable.
The designer and builder of the transporter are, respectively, Monica McGrath and Kent Kirkland. Monica is the business manager at Ross Sheppard High School in Edmonton. Kent is the owner of Kirkland Homes Master Builder.
The two met in 1995 in Yellowknife, when Kent was hired to do some training in Monica's workplace. A year later, they were married. They moved to Edmonton in 2000. Then came Sean, now 10, and Audrey, eight.
Not quite four years ago, the marriage ended. Kent left the family home and found another a few blocks away.
Kent and Monica are nice people. Why the marriage failed is really none of our business. But Monica explains that it was largely stress. She and Kent were living in a new town. Working and raising two young kids.
"You're tired all the time," she says.
It's a common story. Put a married couple under enough stress, for enough time, and things break down. So their marriage ended. The two were forced into a new and awkward routine, familiar to thousands of single parents in Edmonton. The kids would spend one week at Kent's, the next week at Monica's.
The children's social, recreational and educational apparatus was ferried back and forth with them. Often, something critical was forgotten and another trip was required.
Monica thought there had to be a better way. So she did a rough design and took it to Kent. Long story short, that design became the home they live in today — a duplex linked by a transporter.
One of the neat things about the McGrath/Kirkland home (or homes) is that it hides its duplex-ness from the street. Monica's door faces the front, while Kent's is offset and facing one side. Both front doors share a front veranda, but from the street you'd think it was one large home. City planners needed to be convinced of this, by the way. The design did not meet civic guidelines.
The insides of the attached homes are Mars-and-Venus different. Kent's place is minimalist in decor and neutral in colour — almost stark and masculine in tone and tenor. Monica's place is much lighter, brighter and adorned with keepsakes, kitchenware and art. Monica's side has a fireplace and walk-in closet. Kent's does not. Monica's place features chic pendulum lighting; Kent's lights are more pedestrian. Monica's side is 1,830 square feet; Kent's is 1,777. Kent's granite countertop colour is Black Pearl; Monica's, Bianco Argento. Monica's cabinets are light; Kent's dark. What the two have in common is the transporter.
So imagine this: Monica and Kent each have three bedrooms on the second floor. But depending on the week, that number can rise to four or drop to two.
The kids' bedrooms are located in a hallway accessible to both homes. At each end of the hallway are locking fire doors.
If it's Kent's week with the kids, Monica closes and locks the door on her end of the hallway. If it's Monica's week, Kent locks his hall door. The kids know not to knock on or try to enter through the locked doors. If they need the other parent, they can use the phone or the front doors.
The beauty of the arrangement is that the kids have permanent bedrooms. No need to ferry stuff around. Monica and Kent need not drive and pick up kids. And parental loneliness is abated by knowing the kids are just next door.
What about dating? Both say they are past worrying about their ex-spouse being romantic with someone else. They concede there are still feelings — not all of them warm and loving — toward each other. They do some things as a family still, including a trip to Disneyland not long ago.
"It's not like we hang out together, without the kids," says Kent. But Monica adds: "I would say we are friends."
From the beginning of their troubles, they always put the children first. The transporter home allows them to live that priority 24/7.
It also allows for more flexible lives. If it's Kent's week with the kids and he has a sudden commitment, mom is right next door.
"It was a lot of work to get here," says Monica with a smile. "There were hard feelings. But now I think we look out for each other. I don't think we feel like single parents."
Most divorced parents will say that telling the kids is the toughest thing of all. Kids want to live with their mom and dad. As Monica says, it was Sean and Audrey referring afterwards to "mom's house" and "dad's house" that led her to the idea of what they call a "progressive" home. A home the children could call theirs.
Monica tells of how they were touring the home a few weeks before the possession date. Audrey was wearing sparkling, red shoes like Dorothy's in the Wizard of Oz.
"She was clicking her heels together, repeating 'Take me home, take me home'," says Monica. "When nothing happened, she said: 'Do you know why it's not working? It's because I'm already home.' "

A new UK industry Index reveals that large businesses with best-in-class processes for investing in people outperform their sector peers by more than double on key performance indicators for growth in market share, profitability and sustainability.
Notably the report on the research, Trends in Competency Management, points out that most value can be added when applied to senior managers, rather than lower-middle managers or junior staff. Senior managers are often viewed as the most difficult people to address because the so-called 'soft skills' they typically require are difficult to measure. Consequently, it was found that although developing the capability of senior managers offers the highest financial returns, investment at this level is sparse in most sectors.
The findings come from research by a consortium of experts in Competency and Capability Management (CCM), which is currently working with the Cabinet Office and local government to improve delivery of large projects. The CCM Index measures individual organizations against their sector peers and sector versus sector. The index is based on interviews with senior executives and analysis of correlations between corporate KPIs, sophistication of competency management and investment in competency management.
Andy Todd, Managing Director of Commercial Catalyst Ltd, one of the report authors, commented: "The research shows it is possible to quantify the impact of investing in staff development on a firm's competitive advantage. It's definitive proof that managing the competency and capability of staff is a critical issue that deserves attention in the boardroom as well as the HR department. Those who do it best massively outperform those who don't. Looking at the impact on growth in market share, profitability and financial sustainability, the gap between those with the best CCM and the sector average is much bigger than we expected… CCM is about mapping skills against corporate goals – something many executives admit their organizations are not good at."
Competency and Capability Management is defined as the ability to capture and quantify the competency and capability of people in an organization, map it to roles and optimise acquisition, development, retention and motivation of staff to maximise organizational performance.
Commenting on the finding that CCM can add most value to business performance when it is applied to senior operational and programme managers, rather than lower-middle management, rank and file labour, or skilled trades, Todd says: "Workers lower down the food chain are low hanging fruit and shouldn't be ignored, but the real rewards are found higher up the management structure – particularly those with operational or programme responsibility. Businesses typically find these the hardest levels to address, but top companies use cutting edge techniques, data and systems to make a genuine difference."
"A blend of economic, political and business factors means it has never been so important for firms to get the most out of the people they employ and to ensure their competencies and capabilities are aligned with corporate goals. The message for businesses is clear. It's time to review your CCM processes and learn how the best in your sector and in other sectors drive performance from their people." says Todd.
The CCM Index finds that sectors with substantial competition between firms and high risk mitigation measures, such as Aerospace and Defence, or Engineering and Heavy Construction, tend to have the best CCM performance and less variation between firms than other sectors. Conversely, Healthcare, Oil and Gas and Information Technology have high variation between firms which is starkly reflected in the relative performance of companies.

As cattle producers work to improve health and performance while minimizing the need for antibiotics, a growing body of research indicates that supplements influencing microflora in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract can improve gut health and overall immunity.
In a recent webinar, Shelby Roberts, PhD, a post-doctoral fellow with Alltech, outlined ongoing research and application of gut-health management in beef cattle.
In calves, Roberts says, about 13% of death loss occurs during the first 24 hours after birth, while about 28% of deaths occur from one to 21 days and 14% after 21 days. Scours account for about 61% of calf mortality, followed by pneumonia at 25% and other causes at 14%.
The immune system, Roberts notes, includes innate and adaptive immunity. Innate immunity is the body's first defense against infection, involving leukocytes or white blood cells, including macrophages and lymphocytes. Innate immunity provides an immediate response to infection, but is not specific to individual pathogens.
The adaptive immune system relies on antibodies such as immunoglobulins. Those antibodies are pathogen-specific, but have a delayed response to a new pathogen. Immunoglobulins, Roberts says, cannot cross the placental barrier, so colostrum provides the calf with its first source of antibodies along with fats, proteins, minerals and anti-inflammatory agents that benefit immunity. Ideally, newborn nursing calves receive the same antibodies present in the dam, and those antibodies help protect the calf while its active immune system develops.
The bovine GI tract contains the body's highest concentration of immune cells, with additional support from beneficial microbes such as Lactobacillus species. Those beneficial bacteria help prevent pathogens such as E. coli, Salmonella and others involved in calf scours from attaching to the gut wall and causing inflammation. When the immune system and beneficial microbes work together, pathogens are held at bay and the animal utilizes more energy for growth. Antibiotic use disrupts that balance, damaging beneficial bacteria and leaving the immune system as the last line of defense.
Roberts described how mannan-oligosaccharide, a component extracted from the cell walls of Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast, bids to receptors on pathogen cells, blocks their colonization, encourages beneficial microbes and enhances production of immunoglobulin antibodies. Alltech's feed additive BIO-MOS provides that protection she says, with MOS standing for mannan-oligosaccharide. She outlined several trials to illustrate the effects.
In a University of Kentucky trial involving 20 beef cows, researchers included BIO-MOS in the rations of 10 cows beginning three weeks before calving, while the others received the same diet but without BIO-MOS. They vaccinated all the cows against rotavirus four weeks before calving with a booster in another two weeks. Tests showed significantly higher levels of immunoglobulins G and M (IgG and IgM) in colostrum from treated cows and serum samples from their calves. They also found higher antibody titers for the rotavirus vaccine in colostrum and calves from the treated cows.
Roberts also described a demonstration trial in a commercial cow herd in Montana. Over the previous five years, the 160-head herd had experienced 30% morbidity and 3.5% mortality among calves. For the trial, the ranch began feeding BIO-MOS at a rate of 10 grams per head per day five days before cows began calving and continued offering it in a mineral supplement through post-calving. In this trial, calf morbidity dropped from 30% to 15% and death loss dropped from 3.5% to 0.
In cow-calf operations, Roberts recommends feeding the product beginning two months prior to calving and continuing until the youngest calf reaches 45 days of age.
Mannan-oligosaccharide also can benefit calves during the stressful weaning and receiving periods, Roberts says. In an Alberta feedlot trial with 900 newly weaned calves, researchers added BIO-MOS to the receiving ration for half of the calves at a rate of 20 grams per head per day. Through the receiving period in that trial:
- Daily gains for treated calves averaged 2.07 pounds compared with 1.54 pounds for control calves.
- Mortality rate was .44% in treated calves versus 2.66% in controls.
- Treatment rate was 18% in treated calves versus 49.4% in controls.
For the weaning and receiving period, Roberts suggests feeding the product in a transition mineral mix beginning two to three weeks prior to weaning and continuing for 14 to 42 days after shipping.
The Alltech webinar on gut-health management is available for viewing online.

Katie Paterson
Katie Paterson is a young British artist receiving a great deal of attention as a cross-medium, multidisciplinary, and conceptually driven artist who focuses on nature, ecology, geology, and cosmology in her work, using her skill and knowledge as an artist together with her limitless curiosity and tireless research to probe matters often left to science. Her devotion and hard work have been rewarded. Paterson recently held the 2010–2011 John Florent Stone Fellowship at Edinburgh College of Art and the 2010–2011 Leverhulme Artist in Residence in the Astrophysics Group at the University College London, as well as recently being named one of four "Best New Artists in Britain" by The Observer of London. In addition, in 2008 she was the recipient of the first annual Creative 30 Award. With work that literally explores the universe and presents its various phenomena, Paterson has been acknowledged and championed by fellow British artist Cornelia Parker in a 2010 article for The Guardian as, "original, engaging, and expansive. She makes us realize how inconsequential we are in relation to the universe." Described in the same article as, "a romantic . . . with the patience, curiosity, and technical persistence of a scientist," Paterson first came to public attention with a solo show at Modern Art Oxford in 2008, a year after graduating from the Slade School of Fine Art in London. She has since shown in group and solo exhibitions from London to Seoul, Korea to Venice, where in 2011 she presented the unique and fascinating project 100 Billion Suns during the Venice Biennale.
For Tuesday Evenings, Paterson shares her experiences and ideas as an artist, offering special insight into her work featured in the Modern's FOCUS: Katie Paterson, as well as what to look forward to from her growing career.

2017 was a really fascinating 12 months for the car business and the whole lot that went on each within the public light and behind the scenes. It is because these producers may think that the automobiles is not going to be provided with the right regular maintenance service that their tips require. However, when a person does these themselves, they may save 1000's of dollars of the price of the basic cars.
Modern automotive engineering can make cars safer, but on the similar time, drivers must additionally strive for enhancements. This therapy just isn't advisable on cars with customized paint jobs and should not work on all cars with lacquer primarily based paints. Which means driving safely – no rushing tickets, no traffic violations, and no accidents.
Since you are a paying customer, adjustors will have a tendency to provide quicker service than for those who had a distinct insurance coverage firm. Wanna be car sales guys and gals simply can't appear to know this. There may be not a single truth on the problems that the majority cars in authorities auto auctions are usually not in good operational situation.
People must incur huge value of preserving them effectively, but a car or any automobile can survive just for a fixed time interval and should not be additional dragged in use just for the sake of sentiments and worth connected to it. By indulging in money for junk cars, one can save those surplus expenditures and might simply plan for the futuristic bills skillfully.
The subsequent thing that car buyers have to do when paying for cars for sale overseas is to go for online banking services. It checks against your identify and deal with; publish code; your car's registration number and VIN (vehicle identification quantity). GM is continuing the pattern towards more connected cars, something we've already seen with the addition of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth all through many new automobiles.

Here is my #rickrollwrap laid out and you can see how close I am to finishing! I need that last little bit of read for the final 2 eyelet sections. I have a lead and a backup plan. Also, it is really hard to take a good picture of a parallelogram in a square frame. The yarn was a color play kit from @fibrestudio. I added in a skein of variegated yarn from them to make it all go further. I'm interested to see how much is left of everything when I finish! BTW 💗 my project bag from @baaberryfarms.

Time for another peek behind the designer's curtain! I'm in the middle of knitting a sample for a cowl I recently designed. This is a great opportunity to decide if I want to do two or three repeats of the lace/cable pattern. I'm over halfway done with my 2nd repeat and might actually be able to squeak the whole thing out in one skein if I only do two repeats. Check back with me in a few days and see what I think then. #designersofinstagram #designer #knitting #knittersofinstagram #designing #BehindTheDesignersCurtain #knittingdaddy

- Abstract
- This paper explores the dilemma that firms face with respect to knowledge sharing in strategic alliances. On the one hand, alliance success is associated with high levels of interaction and co-operation between partners. On the other hand, full and open co-operation exposes a firm's distinctive knowledge and skills and makes it vulnerable to opportunistic moves by alliance partners. Hence firms experience a fundamental paradox: to gain the greatest benefits they must exchange information and knowledge with external parties yet, at the same time, they must protect themselves against knowledge appropriation. This dilemma is particularly acute in the aerospace sector where political imperatives strongly influence partner choice and collaborators are often strong rivals in other contexts. In this paper we use data drawn from four collaborative agreements in the aerospace sector to explore the ways in which a focal firm has sought to protect its strategic knowledge and manage knowledge flows in alliance relationships. We find that existing theoretical lenses provide valuable but partial insights into the question of knowledge appropriation in alliances and offer limited guidance to managers charged with making alliances work. We suggest that some rich insights can be gained by focusing on the overlaps and interstices between existing theories and that greater exploration of the everyday working practices in alliances may offer a useful starting point for improved theorising. © 2004 Taylor & Francis Ltd.; C1

Now that the dust has cleared, the big Oscar fiasco has spawned a variety of different conversations. One of them involve that "moment" when your project's name is called. The excitement and pride that comes with the announcement of a "Best Picture" win is probably indescribable. Barry Jenkins and the producers of "Moonlight" will never know what that feels like. They were probably busy wallowing in disappointment which soon changed to happiness as news of the mistake surfaced. In hindsight, they were robbed of that moment and the emotion that comes with it.
Jenkins talked about the whole ordeal the morning after with EW and the one thing he pointed out was…his inability to say what he wanted to say to celebrate the moment. Because he was in such shock, he said a short statement but didn't get to accurately reflect his sentiments. Like everyone else who thought they might win, a speech was prepared. Due to the mix-up, it never got delivered. Jenkins said that had he been able to deliver his acceptance speech the right way, it would have probably sounded like this…
"[Moonlight playwright Tarell Alvin McCraney] and I are this kid. We are Chiron," he says, referring to his background as a child from Liberty City, Miami, whose mother once struggled with drug addiction. "And you don't think that kid grows up to be nominated for eight Academy Awards. It's not a dream he's allowed to have. I still feel that way. I didn't think this was possible. But now I look at other people looking at me and if I didn't think it was possible, how are they going to? But now it's happened. So what I think of possibility, let's take it off the table. The thing has happened."
This movie is so important and reaches across a variety of lifestyles. It is important that the message be seen and heard. Congrats to the storytellers, talent, and crew of 'Moonlight'. Thank you for making this film happen.

My husband Joel is in deacon formation and we travel once a month to Conception Abbey and Seminary, a Benedictine monastery, for theological training. Through our visits, I've developed a great admiration for the Benedictine way of life — ordered, simple, and purposeful. There's a time to work, a time to pray, a time to rest, and a time to play. During our visits, I find myself, almost spectator like, standing on the sidelines and watching monastic life unfold before me. I've bent the ears of a few monks, no doubt exhausting them with what seems to be a never-ending series of questions, which essentially boil down to this: How, if it's even possible, can I allow the domestic to become more monastic?
All monasteries have a bell and when that bell rings, the monks are to drop what they are doing and go to wherever the bell is summoning them — prayer, meals, work, study, sleep. The monastic bell helps to strengthen the monks' discipline, pushing them beyond their own agenda to God's.
Speaking of bells, the phrase "smells and bells" is a colloquial expression used within the Church that refers to various sensory experiences occurring during the liturgy — incense and bells, oil and water, bread and wine. The domestic church, at least my domestic church, has its share of smells and bells, too.
- The barking, slobbering black lab who has gone into constant guard-dog mode ever since our firstborn arrived home from the hospital;
- The eruption of tears from the toddler as a result of the barking dog;
- The constant pleas of the 4-year-old to play games, go to the park, read a book, look at her latest artistic masterpiece … simply pay attention to her;
- The pitter-patter of toddler feet coming ever closer while I'm trying to have just one moment to myself … in the bathroom;
- The full diaper pail with the worn-out seals begging to be relieved of a week's worth of "contents";
- THAT smell in the refrigerator that won't go away.
Not quite the same as the Benedictine monastery, but there is a parallel. As the Sufi poet Hafiz wrote, "This moment in time God has carved a place for you." And that place at this time is here within my domestic monastery, this humble abode we call Das Schmidt Haus. It is here where I'm finally learning that time is not mine, it's God's. When any of these domestic smells or bells cries out for my attention, just like the monastic bell does for the monks, I have to drop whatever else I am doing and attend to it. A constant reminder that my time is not my own, and it belongs to someone else.
During one of my ear-bending inquisitions of one of the monks, he actually suggested I, like many at-home moms, may have this whole monastic thing down better than most monks. Say what? His point was that the domestic bell doesn't ring at regular intervals by which you could set a watch. It comes in many forms at different times, often unexpected. The domestic "monk" must be ever-vigilant, ready to be summoned to attend to the needs of another at a moment's notice.
The domestic can be monastic. Sure, it looks nothing like the ordered simplicity of the abbey, but that's precisely the point. My call is different. I'm not meant to be a monk any more than one of them is meant to be a mom. But our vocations are complimentary. I look to the monks for inspiration in the areas of order, simplicity, and prayer. The monks, I have learned, look to us as icons of the Holy Family for inspiration in the areas of sacrifice and community.
Maybe I have precisely what I need to grow in holiness right here after all. Well, gotta run; the domestic bell is ringing. What IS that smell?!

This is one of three single-cultivar sencha teas produced by Mr. Henta, an organic tea farmer in Kirishima, a region outside of Kagoshima in the south of Japan. This particular tea is a Fukamushi, which means it is steamed for a longer time and it is not shaded prior to harvest. This tea is a mix of first and second harvests and it is grown 230 meters above sea level.
The Saemidori sencha is very sweet and rich in its umami flavor profile. The liquor is thicker and a little bit syrupy, indicating that the theanine is quite high. It is savory but still very sweet.
This package contains 100 grams of green tea.
Steep for 1 minute at 75 degrees C 167 degrees F. Can be steeped 2-3 more times for 20 seconds each
