Apple shares are bucking the trend of the stock market. The company reported strong earnings this week, hiked its cash dividend by 16% and to ensure bullishness announced another $100 billion buyback of stock. It had repurchased some $23.5 billion of common stock this past quarter, the largest single buyback in corporate history. Exceedingly higher profit margins on its $1,000 phone and surprising growth in the service business makes the Apple phone the most profitable product in the world. And the stock sells at only 16 times earnings.
Amazon's quarterly profit rose mightily to $1.6 billion, including a stellar performance of the company's cloud computing business known as Amazon Web Services for the second consecutive quarter of a "remarkable acceleration" in growth that the market also celebrated. Revenues jumped 43% while earnings per share soared surprisingly to $3.27 a share. Make no mistake; this was a stupendous performance for one of the premier stock holdings in America. A stunning addition: revenues from Amazon Web Services rose 49% to $5.44 billion from the same period a year ago. All told, a revelation of the dynamism of Amazon's growth trajectory. Slim pickings in profits are now apparently a theme of the past.
Facebook also enjoyed a blowout quarter with net income rising by 63% to $5 billion this year. Facebook has already retraced its price per common share near the $175 marker after the scandal about personal information privacy and troubling congressional hearings. All this despite the realization Facebook will have to spend more money on compliance to protect the personal information of its 2 billion users, which could impact profit margins. Among other tech shares that have led the market, Alphabet (Google) also turned in a favorable report, which kept its shares above $1,000 a share.
Meanwhile, the general market is down 10 of the past 12 sessions as investors wonder if the earnings largesse from the giant tax cut has produced big gains as a one-time shot. As well, the two-year Treasury yield has risen to over 2.4% — its highest level since the summer of 2008. I have heard of investors selling stocks and funneling the proceeds into these safe government paper. What's more, core inflation has moved back above 2% as oil prices have spiked recently to the $70-a-barrel level.
We are waiting for the Fed to continue raising rates later this year in what can be termed evidence of quantitative tightening, the opposite of the quantitative easing that helped push equity prices higher some 10 years ago. "When the Fed pushed its balance sheet up, we saw a match between the growth of the Fed's balance sheet and that of the stock market,"says Brad McMillan, chief investment officer for Commonwealth Financial Network and a Forbes contributor. "The QT (Quantitative Tightening) program is designed to restore that balance. The question is whether the stock market will then follow the Fed balances down." I say yes; that is the number one problem for the stock market going forward.
Another worrying sign: The yield curve, the difference between the return on the two-year Treasury and the 10-year Treasury has been narrowing to about 50 basis points. Wall Street believes that when the short rate surpasses the 10-year rate, it is an ominous sign that a recession may be in the works down the road. In short, there are several warning signs in the market. A serious foreshadowing was Caterpillar's warning that its latest quarterly profits gains may well be the peak of the cycle for profits from this established market leader.

This wiki has been created to discuss about scaling methods of Agile....
In the projects some of us are involved in, we put a lot of energy into becoming agile. This is often a tough fight because the environment can be as anti agile as it can get.
While SAFe has led to several dramatic successes, challenges still remain--especially as enterprises undergo the broader organizational change necessary for digital transformation success.
With the vast diversity of organizations and their projects, a cookie-cutter approach (or prescriptive recipe for all types of projects and situations) will not work.

Women and jeans are not a match made in heaven.
We spend our entire lives trying to find jeans that fit, jeans that don't make us look fat, jeans that might actually be comfortable.
We're usually faced with one of two main style choices: low rise jeans—a style that has outlasted even my most apocalyptic predictions—or "Mom jeans", where the waist is so high you look like you have a gut even if you don't. Low-rise jeans have created a national crisis of "muffin tops". Mom jeans make anyone wearing them look four months pregnant.
It's not pretty.
Still, we keep trying on jeans and buying them...jeggings, boot cut, skinnies. Some women who've given up the battle now prefer to wear pajama bottoms in public. A Tesco market in Wales recently banned that fashion choice.
Now, in the latest sign that American fashion is going the way of the Greek economy, one product combines jeans AND pajamas: Pajama Jeans.
They take 'Mom jeans' to the next level.
"They're amazingly comfortable but let you look put together all day long," the Pajama Jeans video ad says, as you see models caress their covered thighs.
"Put your best self out there."
The jeans, which cost $39.95 (which includes a free T-shirt for "an entire outfit"), are made from cotton and spandex, with "all the detailing of your favorite jeans...they look like they were made by some European designer."
New York Daily News reporter Christina Boyle put on a pair and took them out for a walkto get public reaction. An online poll at the newspaper shows people favoring the jeans by a 2-1 margin. Boyle quotes Sandra Markus, a professor at the Fashion Institute of Technology, who says, "These days, pajamas are just casual wear, with the whole yoga influence. And jeans ... they are ubiquitous. They are totally accepted, so why not as pajamas?"
But WalletPop wonders ,"What do Pajama Jeans say about Americans?" Aaron Crowe asks, "Do we really need sweatpants that look like jeans but are really pajamas? Is America that lazy? Or stupid enough to spend $40 on them?"
I've only heard one person express interest in the product. Through emails and on TwitterI've been told:
"Why can't people just wear their pajamas to sleep in and their regular clothes out of the house? It's worked for quite sometime before now."
"Who knew the velour jumpsuit would have competition in the lazy category. Does it come with a box of bon bons?"
"Seriously? What's next? Extended wear condoms?"
"See how the jeans look and how comfortable they really are. Also where the jeans hit on your body."
"How could anyone cinch those monstrosities any higher?"
"That's just wrong on more levels than I can count. "
"Someone shoot me if I ever even mention buying these things!"
"They're one notch up the Fashion Crime ladder from slipper socks."
Joe Posnanski from Sports Illustrated may provide the best analysis. "Well, first of all, they're not really pajamas," he writes. "To be perfectly blunt, that's a tough flaw to overlook."
However, Posnanski has an excellent idea for marketing the product—target men. "Have a commercial with a regular looking guy," Posnanski writes. "He keeps hammering the snooze button on his alarm clock. And then he looks up (shock!), he's late again. Oh man, the boss will fire him for sure this time! This is the starting plotline to 42% of all movie comedies, so it should be familiar. What will he do? Well, it just so happens that this time, Jim is wearing his Pajama Jeans. So he just throws on some socks and shoes, maybe a new shirt...and rushes to the office, makes it just in time. The boss gives him a raise. The people in the office say 'Looking sharp today, Jim.' The attractive TV woman feels HIS jeans because they're so soft. Now, that's a TV product people can believe in."

I always maintain; (À chacun son propre) to each their own. I don't really care what other people do with their lives as long as they are with-in the law and their actions do not affect me or my family. BUT, that doesn't necessarily mean I agree with what they do.
Lets take the nude diners in a nude eatery. By partaking in a highly unusual activity like eating in the raw, they are not breaking the law or hurting anyone, they are just demonstrating how different they are.
When I go out to eat, I like to be in a comfortable environmental and enjoy my food and not be pestered by people. I don't want all the people staring at me to see how well I am endowed (only bragging) or my wife's booty. I don't want some dude walking over to my table to talk and have MR. JONES staring me in the kisser or his old lady standing there with her bush in the breeze.
Then the men may have the problem of dropping something hot in their lap. Instead of having a a good pair of stained pants, they wind-up with a singed pecker.
The ladies have to worry about not only being gawked at, everyone checking out their cup size. Worst yet, they have to be careful they don't splash their hooters while they are twirling their linguini. They should learn how to use the spoon, it generates less over spray.
The bright side of it all; stains are easier to get off the skin than they are clothing. There is always a plus if we look HARD enough. For me, the way I see it, there would be too many distractions for me to patronize a nude eatery.
So tell me Frederich; how are the wife and kids? Doing anything different lately? How do you like my hat. I figured I would wear it, there is a little draft in here and my head gets cold,
Let's face it, there are always weird birds in this world that will come up with anything different or extreme to make a buck. There is never a shortage of the foolish flock of followers getting in their lines. If this is the worst issue facing mankind, I guess that is a BIG plus.
BUT for all of the die hard nude eaters, there is always a solution. The ladies can carry a bib around with them to cover their boobs and the gents can put a napkin on their lap to protect their manhood.

On a sunny day in February, about a dozen brewers, writers, and beer aficionados gathered in the basement of a Patterson Park row home. There, they tapped kegs and casks of some experimental beers (like a milk stout fortified with crab shells) and each person scored the beers and wrote down their opinions on 3×5 cards.
Call it grassroots marketing, field research, or maybe the most fun focus group ever. This is part of the strategy behind Checkerspot Brewing, which is opening in South Baltimore by the end of this year. For the past 18 months, the team behind Checkerspot—Judy Neff, her husband Rob, and their partner Steve Marsh—have been hosting in-home taste tests, collaborating with established breweries, and strengthening their relationships with local farms as they prepare for the opening.
"I am taking the leap to turn my passion into a career," says Judy, who has a Ph.D in microbiology and has been home-brewing for 12 years. "We thought the smartest approach was to get to know all the brewers in Maryland—work with them, get their advice and expertise. It's one of the few industries where there really is very little competition."
Checkerspot Brewing—named after the state butterfly of Maryland—will be located at 175 W. Ostend Street, a stone's throw from M&T Bank Stadium and Horseshoe Casino. Judy says opening the brewery has been a long-time coming and they are so excited to have the expertise of Marsh, who started the cask program at Heavy Seas Beer a decade ago.
"They're one of the top producers of cask beer in American and Steve was instrumental in starting that up," she says. "But he's also been sourcing local hops and fruits from Maryland farms since it was sort of this unknown entity. Back then, a farmer growing peaches wasn't thinking they could sell it to brewers."
But that movement has certainly changed and Marsh's agricultural connections are paying off. In May, the brewery collaborated with Frederick-based Flying Dog to release Two Paws Ale, a pale ale brewed with 100-percent local malt from Chesapeake Malting and paw-paw fruits and honey.
"Not surprisingly, smaller farms produce the most flavorful ingredients," she said. "We want people to get back to understanding the circle of life from a beer perspective."
Checkerspot also wants to get a real survey of their future market, which is why the Neffs have hosted two in-home taste tests to get feedback about their beer. The first one was a range of different styles and the second one focused primarily on saisons.
"It helps remind you that you're not just brewing beer for your own palette," Judy said. "Our goal isn't to focus on just one style and try to be as open as possible to all tastes and preferences."
So far, Checkerspot's core beers include the milk stout with crab shells, which is their play on an oyster stout. They'll also have a juniper IPA in the rotation, which plays with juicy, candy-type hops and the piny notes of the juniper berry. They'll also feature at least one high ABV beer, as well as two cask options. The brewery itself is a 10,000-square-foot space with a two-floor taproom that will overlook a giant brew house with 22-foot ceilings.
"The location really can't be beat," she said. "South Baltimore really has a strong neighborhood feel where people are passionate about supporting local. We're just really hoping this will be a fun place to hang out and that we'll be known for our great beers."

Under Eye Gel - Some Key Thoughts Health Articles | July 8

The skin under the eye area is a tricky thing.? Not only does this area display the unsightly dark circles and bags, but it is also the most sensitive skin on the body.?

There are eye care products that you can use to repair and treat your eye area to prevent eye wrinkles, under eye bags, and dark circles. Eye gels can help these problems if they contain effective ingredients that will not irritate the delicate skin around the eye. Eye gels can be applied every day in the morning and at night. Make sure that the eye gel you choose does not contain ingredients that can cause irritation and is specifically designed for the area around the eye. Regular face creams may be too harsh or designed to penetrate too deeply in the skin.

The loan has no tough criteria or complicated procedures, but that doesn't mean that you can overlook the simple terms and conditions of the loan.
Eligibility Criteria
There are four main conditions for being eligible to avail a these loans. The first one is that you should be above 18 years of age. The second one is that you should be earning at least $1000 per month and working in the same job for a minimum of three months. Someone who is constantly changing jobs, that too, in less than two-three months, appears as a risky client for a lender.

The third condition is that you should have a checking account in a bank. Again, this is because the money transaction is done via wire transfer. The fourth one is that you should be a citizen of America. Am I hearing the readers belonging to foreign nationalities sighing in despair?
Coming back to my friend's case, she was denied the advance as she had no checking account in a bank. She had assumed that the lenders would send her money through a cheque, after they find that she did not hold an account. Remember, there is no flexibility in the criteria of the loan. The only flexibility that you have is in the repayment of the cash advance. You can extend the date of paying back by paying an additional fee in case of extreme circumstances when you can't pay back the loan on time.
My friend has a checking account now. She had applied for the no fax payday loan again and this time she has got the approval! Remember that even if you apply for a no faxing needed payday loan

, it would not mean that no caution is needed.

Otherwise, you could find that your application is rejected that can later damage your credit. But it is not a problem for those vying for best payday loans in Georgia. Borrowers do not have to place any of their worth assets as of loan securities. Only minimal personal information is gathered, and later after the application reviewing money is granted spontaneously.

First off, I've updated the Galarian Word List with more stuff, now that I've made it to Spikemuth. ... yes, I'm WAY behind on the game.
But now that I've made it to Spikemuth, I noticed something shocking:
It's bad enough that they added a 40th letter—?—which has only been used like TWICE IN THE ENTIRE GAME.... but now there is clearly a missing 41st letter, which has ONLY appeared in this word (which is obviously "Pokémon"). Now what I'm now curious about is... first off, why?? Why did the devs do this? To be specific, that 41st letter is similar to both ? and G in that they only appear in very VERY rare circumstance; ? has only been seen on the red "Trainer Tips" signs and in the word "PokeJob" (and now "Pokemon"), while G has only appeared in the word "Galar" (GA9A4). So there is clearly a small class of Galarian characters which exist only in rare cases and is NOT used anywhere else. In that case, for all I know there might be another one-off 42nd and 43rd character as well. I guess I'd best keep it open. But still, normal languages don't work this way; even letters like Q, J, and Z—which are literally the three least used characters in English—still appear in plenty of places, AND together—queen, jazz, quiz, equalize, jacqueries, jacuzzi, japanize, objectivize—they aren't seen in ONE or TWO words, and that's it. So I guess this is just one more mystery to unlock.
And secondly: consider how that 41st character looks like it would be an uppercase version of h, similar to how maybe e is the uppercase version of 2 or 9 is to 6. In that case, since we know that some characters are intended to be "lowercase" characters, is there an actual one-to-one connection between one certain lowercase character with a certain uppercase character? If so, then perhaps it'll help sort out if there are any missing characters based on any lack of related upper- or lower-case characters. ... That said, I personally don't think that's the case. Despite their similar shapes, there has been literally no indication that they actually ARE intended to be upper- and lower-case forms of the same character. Like, RQ38 ("Rose") has never been depicted as, say, Ro2i somewhere else... rather, every case of "Rose" in Galarian has ALWAYS been written as RQ38. But even if I don't think that's the case, Galarian continues to surprise me, so I wouldn't truly bet against that being the case.
Anyways... I'll update Thraex Sans to include that missing 41st letter; I'll probably include it as #, $, or &, as those shapes seem to be the most similar (at least of the ones I have left to use). I'll post an update about it here when it's done.
OK, the Thraex font has been updated to include the 41st character, which is attached to the number sign (#), thus: #
And now, the Galarian word for Pokémon, in all its glory:

Your Newswire has the article Truth Bomb Dropped Live On BBC By British Ambassador Goes Viral.
"Trump has just given the jihadis a thousand reasons to stage fake flag operations, seeing how successful and easy it is, with a gullible media, to provoke and lead the West into intemperate reactions.
Since the first false flag operation in 2013, I have been saying exactly what the former Ambassador has been saying about the message we send to the jihadis. What I did not know at the time and did not know until recently is that Hillary Clinton's State Department facilitated the transfer to the jihadis of the chemical weapons that we found in Libya. What did she expect them to do with these materials, and what message was she sending to them? Apparently, they have received the message loud and clear.

Social media users really don't like U.S. airlines, according to analysis from Amplicate, an online consumer research firm that tracks public opinion. At least, they really don't like some of them, Amplicate notes in a recent Social Media Observer blog post by Seamus Holland. 57 percent of all comments on U.S. airlines on social media in the last 12 months were negative, Amplicate found, with a few of the most well-known names in aviation taking most of the blame for their negativity.
"Social media users expressed intense hatred for a number of the leading lights of US aviation, including Delta, United and US Airways. But people reserved the most ire for American Airlines, the world's fourth largest airline and by far the most hated on social media. A measly 12 percent of opinions on social media about the airline were positive over the last 12 months. Social media users' complaints against American ranged from bad customer service to cancelled flights, " Amplicate says.
"Although the most hated, American Airlines didn't put its foot in it as deeply as did Delta Airlines. In June 2011, Delta ignited a firestorm of negative comment on social media after it decided to charge returning U.S. servicemen for extra baggage. Apparently, returning soldiers weren't able to fit all their equipment from service in Afghanistan into the overhead locker."
"Thanks to Delta's unfortunate decision, there were more negative comments on U.S. airlines in June than in any other month, with Delta accounting for over half of all negative opinions. But despite the faux pas, Delta still managed to avoid being hated as much as American, United, Spirit and US Airways," Amplicate says.
"But it wasn't all doom and gloom for the U.S. aviation industry. Social media users had almost nothing negative to say about Virgin America, the low-cost airline with flashing lights and Wi-Fi at 20,000 feet. 97 percent of opinions on the airline were positive over the last 12 months. The on-board Wi-Fi particularly pleased Virgin America's fans: they tweeted their happiness from mid-air, while sipping on one of the airline's alcoholic beverages."
"Virgin America was not the only airline to make its customers express their joy on social media. The vast majority of social media comments on JetBlue and SouthWest were positive. What are they doing that the others aren't? Getting their passengers to their destinations on time perhaps?" Amplicate said.

In 1967 Richard Long took the train from London out to the countryside. Somewhere out in the green he was walking a number of times back and forth until a straight line of bent grass appeared. Then he took a photo of his line and went back to London.
'A Line Made by Walking' is today a classic work of land art. Long was 22 and still a student at Saint Martins College of Art. One of his teachers was Anthony Caro, who did still his metal sculptures. Long was looking for a completely new way to do sculpture: A sculpture that did not need to remain for eternity. He made 'walking' an act of art.

I also like the sensual quality of his mud paintings: Long takes mud of rivers and makes very beautiful wall paintings directly on the walls. Again, the aspect of a work potentially without an original is important to him.
Then there are also the strictly conceptual text works: He writes in stenciled words on walls or paper either what he observed during his walks. Or what his starting concept for the walk was. These works are the most drastic contradiction to the sensual quality of the stone circles.
Long's critics say his work is beautiful, but he does the same for some 40 years now. They claim that there is no development in his work. Some say, it is nice decoration but nothing more. Other critics say that his word pieces look all to designed.
Well, I think to a certain extent they are right: Especially the argument that he is doing the same for 40 years is a good point. But he does it well and he seems to enjoy his work.
His work is very beautiful - so what?

Epson Perfection V100 in Ubuntu

I just bought an Epson Perfection V100 scanner and wanted to post about how I got it working in Ubuntu for anyone else who noticed it doesn't Just Work. The drivers are binary-only, so you have to dick around a little to get them installed — the SANE folks have said they'd integrate them if they were open source, but most hardware companies fail to provide source and doom their hardware to early obsolescence. Tangent aside, here's how to get your scanner working:

I found this article via Dr. Helen. I think it's very important for us men to seriously think about these things. It might seem trivial and many will dismiss it as such without a second thought but you really should stop for a minute and pay attention to details like "This came from every male patient".
I wish more men would heed the advice of Rasczak from Starship Troopers: "Never pass up a good thing". In life bad things are inevitable. It's the good things that you can avoid – and many men do that – but why should you? Don't live with a person who obstructs your happiness. Don't have rigid principles that will make life joyless. Have the courage to care about your own happiness.

Jul 26, 2007 Thanks, New Haven, for issuing ID's for all
Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for And no religion too Imagine all the people Living life in peace…
We all live in one world. The least governments can do is to issue every applicant a photo identification, regardless of immigration status. New Haven, Connecticut, started doing just that on July 24, 2007. Please encourage your local, county, state and federal governments to follow suit.
I grew up just twenty miles from New Haven, and previously associated it with the nation's best pizza, Toad's Place, and WPLR radio. Now, at the head of the list, I happily add identification cards for all, and a past pro-drug policy reform police chief who rejected the DARE program.
In appreciation, I plan to spend some money in New Haven next time I am nearby. Jon Katz.

Welcome to part 3 of this series on homeschool portfolios. I hope you have been finding it to be helpful as you work on your own child's portfolio. In case you missed it, part 1 in this series covered the basics of homeschool portfolios and part 2 discussed what you can use to assemble your actual portfolio.
In this post we will go over all of the stuff that you can put in your portfolio. What goes into it will depend on what your state may require as well as what you want to include and save from the past year of school work.
Things you can included:
- Table of contents
- Legal requirements for your state (attendance records, letter of intent, etc)
- Summary of curriculum, resources, and books used
- Log of field trips, activities, or co-op meetings
- Learning objectives and goals for the year
- List of books read (independently and/or aloud)
- Samples of work from various times of the year showing progress, mastery, or areas needing improvement (tests and quizzes, writing samples, worksheets, photos of projects, book reports, etc)
- Items from field trips (photos, ticket stubs, brochures, etc)
- Certificates, recognitions, awards, or other kinds of achievements
Your portfolio does not have to include all of these items, and there may be more that you want to, or need to include, but hopefully this gives you some ideas on what you can use. Each homeschool portfolio will look different, but if it shows your child's progress throughout the year, then I would consider that a success! What other items do you include in your child's homeschool portfolio?

1. Listen.The first step to answering this question is critical: listen to your employees. Employee retention starts with asking hard questions. What we do with a lot of our clients is to survey their employees. These surveys are always anonymous, benchmarkable, short, and electronic. In fact, right now I'm surveying a company that has well over 100 employees. We've created questions, including some open-ended questions, that ask, "If you could sit down with the owner of the company and he asked you how to improve the company, what would you suggest?" Other questions will be statements with the possible responses: agree, disagree, strongly agree/disagree, etc. Including benchmarkable questions allows us to compare results from multiple companies' surveys. From the results we create a summary to compare the results from previous years, to compare the results to other organizations, and to track trends. Then our client conducts an off-site management review to look at these results. I have seen many of these employee surveys over the years, and sometimes the results can be brutal. Employees typically have a lot to say about your business, their role, issues in the company, and their managers. Sometimes the truth is difficult to face, but you can't run from it. A healthy company is one that is committed to looking itself in the mirror and asking:
- "How do we treat our employees?"
- "How do our employees perceive the company?"
- "Are they happy working for us?"
- ""Are we trustworthy?"
- "Are we communicating effectively?"
- "Do we provide proper training?"

We know the challenges of unforeseen events in business and in life.
Both of us have been in corporate for 35 years. Jesse went from being a busboy to becoming the Executive Director of Casino Marketing in that time. And Lisa managed an extremely challenging and often toxic corporate world while still climbing to the top positions and increasing her income to high six figures. All while single-handedly raising three children!
It was through our own personal struggles that we had to learn how to take new steps and find new strategies to turn things around in our careers so we can have the recognition, income and fulfillment we craved. Mind you, there was no Google and YouTube in our time, so we had to learn through trial and painful error.
Since then we've spent 183,000 hours coaching others to reach their breakthrough success, so we are certain that with the right tools, systems and support – YOU CAN TOO.
It's time for you to STOP STRESSING, so that you can START LIVING again!

CChIPS 2018-2019 Research Portfolio
Child Seats with Load Legs: Understanding the Response of the ATD in Mitigating Head Injury Risk Across Crash Directions
Principal Investigator: Aditya Belwadi, PhD, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia
This study aims to quantify the response of the instrumented anthropomorphic test device (ATD) in rear-facing child seats with and without load legs in simulated frontal, oblique, and lateral impact crashes. The broad long-term objective of this line of research is to gain insight into ATD kinematics and kinetics as a function of the child seat.
Can the Startle Reflex be Manipulated to Reduce Take-over Time in Pre-crash Scenarios for Autonomous Driving?
Principal Investigator: Valentina Graci, PhD, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia
This project examines if take-over reaction time to reach and turn the steering wheel during a simulated vehicle swerving is decreased by an acoustic startling pre-stimulus, i.e., a loud sound preceding the swerving event. Using a lateral oscillating sled device, two populations (adults vs. teens) will be studied and the role of driver awareness will be quantified by examining scenarios when the driver is ready to react and when the driver is involved in a secondary task.
Sensitivity Analysis on Factors that Influence Head Responses of Hybrid III 6-Year-Old ATD
Principal Investigator: Yun Seok Kang, PhD, The Ohio State University
This study aims to provide information that will allow child restraint system and vehicle engineers to understand the influence of neck cable tightness and repeated tests on responses of the Hybrid III 6-year-old anthropomorphic test device (ATD) head and neck in frontal impact scenarios, utilizing a controlled mini-sled system.
Biomechanics in Autonomous Vehicles: A Pilot Study to Explore Responses of Pediatric Occupants in Non-traditional Seating Conditions
Student Investigator: Jalaj Maheshwari, MS, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia
Autonomous vehicle seating designs have non-traditional seating positions, which potentially give rise to new impact conditions. Using computational modeling, this study explores the implications of non-normative seating conditions on booster seat-restrained pediatric occupants in simulated high-speed rear impacts.
Effectiveness of Boosters vs. Forward-facing Five-point Harness
Principal Investigator: Julie Mansfield, MS, The Ohio State University
As the optimal time to transition a child from a forward-facing child restraint system to a booster is not currently clear, this study aims to help inform better guidelines for children during this transition. Statistical analyses will be conducted on cases in federally available databases and the mechanisms of injury in each type of seat will be analyzed to compile recommendations for industry interventions.
Effects of Adjacent Seat Positions on CRS Performance in Side Impacts
Principal Investigator: Julie Mansfield, MS, The Ohio State University
Versatility in vehicle seating positions offer consumers the ability to adapt the vehicle environment to their family's needs. However, it is currently not known how these various seat configurations and obstacles might interact with child restraint systems (CRS) in adjacent seats during side impacts. This study utilizes sled testing to define the performance outcomes of CRS in side impacts under specific seating configurations.
Understanding Child Restraint System Use on Airplanes
Principal Investigator: Aimee Palumbo, PhD, MPH, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia
This study aims to identify strengths and critical gaps in flight attendant and parents' knowledge and perceptions that lead to low child restraint system use for child airline passengers. Following surveys administered to both flight attendants and caregivers, analyses will estimate rates of CRS use and identify key themes and recommendations.
In-Depth Analysis of Crash Causation Factors Using SHRP2 (Year 1): Rear-End Striking Crashes

Utilizing data from the Strategic Highway Research Program 2 (SHRP2) Naturalistic Driving Study, this study will quantify the behavioral, environmental, and experiential factors contributing to rear-end striking crashes among teen, young adult, and older drivers. The long-term objective is to inform the development of driver-specific Advanced Driver Assistance Systems that account for the unique errors exhibited by these risky driving groups.
How Do Novel Seat Positions Impact Usability of Child Restraints?
Principal Investigator: Patrice Tremoulet, PhD, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia
Autonomous driving technology offers manufacturers the opportunity to design vehicles with different interiors than traditional automobiles. It is important to consider the safety implications when contemplating different interior design possibilities, particularly for families with young children who will need to use child restraint systems. This study explores how having seats in non-traditional orientations within a vehicle may impact parents' abilities to install, secure children in, and remove different types of child restraint systems, and how different seating orientations will impact comfort of different family members when children are restrained in different seat positions.

The Integrative Therapy Center offers movement-based expressive arts approach that integrates movement/dance, visual arts, writing (narrative/poetry), body awareness techniques and therapeutic practices. This approach supports personal, interpersonal and social/community transformation.. An embodied creative approach integrates the practices of body awareness, movement/dance, visual arts, writing and therapeutic practices. This approach supports the whole person as a dynamic and vital being. The goal of ITC is to develop partnerships with other community agencies to provide population specific groups with a body centered expressive arts approach. Thames Valley Addiction Services had their first expressive arts therapy group this past fall. This group was developed and co-facilitated by Deborah Windell (MSc. MSW. Cand). Our hope is to provide these partnerships whereby agencies can view ITC as an alternative in providing integrative therapeutic options. Methods We explore the relationship between the physical, emotional, mental/imaginary and existential levels of our experience and expression. We research the complex internal happenings of our psychic world of thought, emotions and behavioural expression and the effects of relationships, specific situations and cultural values on our emotional, physical and mental well being. On a therapeutic level we examine autobiographical material and explore this material not only verbally, as in conventional therapy, but through mediums of movement, drawing, writing and somatic practices. Beliefs about ourselves can be restrictive to our personal and relational growth. Through engaging in a embodied creative process more options are available to make changes. Our Tools The Body: We live in and through our bodies. The body contains and reveals our entire life experience. Our bodies hold our physical, emotional, mental and inspired experiences. It holds great wisdom; we must therefore allow for the body to express itself and find ways of observing and listening to have access to this knowledge. Body-Centered Therapy: Also known as somatic therapy encompasses a variety of approaches to acknowledge the importance of the body in forming our experiences in life. Feelings, sensations, thoughts, actions, body armour, images and impulses that arise from the body are an integral part of our experience. Body centered therapy helps to bring attention to inner states, observing our body's language and habits and connecting these observation to our life and emotions. The ability to experience an inner presence in the here and now, embodiment is as a fundamental tool to live and express who we truly are. Movement/Dance: Movement expresses our personality, our ingrained patterns and the possibilities for change. Movement follows the same neuropathways as our feeling so when we move we feel. Our movement takes us inwards to our internal experiences and outwards to express our experiences into the world and with other. Movement connects us to the natural flow of life and our environment allowing a sense of wellbeing Voice/Sound: Sound is breathe made visible. Sound and words that come out of our body's experience is a direct authentic expression. It is how our body speaks. Drawing: Visually creating an image allows for the externalization of the symbolic representation of our body felt experience that we can creates some permanence. Images provide concrete accounts of our imagination and unconscious symbolism. Writing: The spontaneous expression of words allows for a language that articulates our true reality at the time. We become storyteller, poets that articulate personal and collective stories. We create our own life narratives. Embodiment: The process or state of living in your body in the here and now. When we are able to observe our emotional energetic system that is located in our physicality and be present to the ebb and flow of our internal and external interactions and experiences, we feel a sense of groundedness in the essence of our being (ontology). Through the expressive arts we explore the ways in which we experience embodiment. Behind your thoughts and feelings, my brother, stands a mighty commander, an unknown sage – he is called Self. He lives in your body, he is your body.(Nietzsche, 1961 [1883], p. 62)
How we work and philosophy We work both individually and in groups. Individually the conventionally therapeutic practices are used. Each individuals needs are placed as the priority which might mean that a person feels comfortable with talk therapy. The foundation of trust, openness and acceptance of a person's process is paramount for any deeper therapeutic work to occur.
We offer workshops and classes for the public throughout the year in movement based expressive arts that explore personal life themes and body sense (embodiment creative movement classes). Learn more about our workshops and classes……

I would recommend both without hesitation if you are serious about modifications and the strengthening of BA, BF, FG. I will be running the car on street tyres to start with next week weather permitting, and then on slicks and front runners a week or so after that.Wish me luck,Spiro 1 Go to top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you're old enough to remember when Extreme's ballad More Than Words was released, you'll know how huge it was. It was played everywhere and I'm not sure if there was a single person who didn't love it – even our parents didn't demand we switch if off when it came on the radio, which says a lot. It was perfect in its simplicity: just two guys, an acoustic guitar, a great melody and a whole lotta harmonising.
A truly great song isn't really proven until it stands the test of time and this one from back in 1990 absolutely has. Even if you don't remember it the first time 'round, you would have heard it at some point in you life… and I'll bet you loved it too.
Just the other night, the judges on US series of The Voice: Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani gave More Than Words a crack and it was excellent. Even host Carson Daly got in on the action playing guitar. Kelly and John were clearly the stand-outs with their incred vocals, but it's worth watching for the delicious little smirks between Blake and Gwen alone.
Just in case this has made you nostalgic for the OG, you can watch the gorgeous Gary and Nuno from Extreme nail it below…

The American Medical Association (AMA) recently voted to oppose religious or philosophical exemptions for childhood vaccinations, in what its members hope will be a determinative blow against informed consent and a parent's right to protect the bodily integrity of their child.
Two states already deny parents and children these rights under law. Neither Mississippi nor West Virginia allow for a religious or philosophical exemption by law. These states coincidentally both rank at the very bottom in both education (43rd and 50th) and economic (50th and 45th) outcomes, but suddenly the AMA finds them "cutting-edge."
A bill in California (SB277) is being steam-rolled through the legislature in a rush to outlaw parental conscience in that state as well, which in part has fueled the AMA's decision.
"We have a bill presently in California at the state legislature to remove all non-medical exemptions. We're worried that weak AMA policy will [affect] the California state legislature," admitted California AMA delegate Mark H. Kogan, MD, according to MedPageToday.

CREDIT: This story was first seen in Tes
Politicians need to pledge an extra £1bn in 2019-20 to make a real impact on the schools budget, suggests an Institute of Fiscal Studies analysis.
Tes reports that schools would need an extra £1bn to protect them from real-terms cuts in 2019-20, a new analysis by a highly respected thinktank has found.
The Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) suggests this is the amount that political parties would need to pledge to make a tangible difference to the overall schools budget, at a time when school funding looks set to feature prominently in the general election campaign.
The research by IFS associate director Luke Sibieta shows that an extra £1bn would result in a freeze to per-pupil spending in real terms in 2019-20.
The government's current plans would result in real-terms spending cuts of about 6.5% between 2015-16 and 2019-20 – the first real-terms cut since the mid-1990s and the largest fall over a four-year period since at least the late 1970s, according to the IFS.
A note attached to today's research states: "If implemented, this would leave school spending per-pupil at about the same level in 2020 as it was in 2010, undoing the increases which were actually afforded during the 2010-15 parliament."
The briefing adds that increasing the budget by £1bn in 2019-20 to £39.7bn would "make it a bit easier to implement school funding reform as the baseline would be a real-terms freeze rather than a real-terms cut".
It adds: "But note that it would inevitably still imply a real-terms cut for relative losers from a national funding formula if this policy was pursued. Both implementing a national formula and ensuring no real-terms cut for any school would require more money than that."
The proposed national schools funding formula is needed to address growing disparities in funding levels across the country and would always create "winners and losers", says the note.
But the funding squeeze means that "schools facing the biggest losses will see a real-terms fall in funding per pupil of close to 10 per cent between 2015-16 and 2019-20". It adds: "Even the biggest winners will get only a real-terms freeze over the same time frame."
It is unclear how this would change under a Labour government, the briefing says. But shadow education secretary Angela Rayner has said that she supports the principle of a national funding formula and shadow chancellor John McDonnell told the NUT conference that he opposed the cuts and would support a teachers' strike.
