Brescia, October 6, 2015 – mysterious die-off of waterfowl on the coast of the Benaco Bresciano. To communicate is the provincial police of Brescia, who stressed that the cause of death of the birds remain unknown. One hypothesis is that a man may die of natural substances have been found in waters, as happened in the past. "At the invitation of the Chairman of a committee environmentalist, precise with natural substance we meana substance not fed by man but still toxic, probably Botox. Botulinum toxin is one of the most powerful natural poisons in the world and, in fact, constitutes a source of food poisoning – said the provincial police commander Charles Caromani – The good news is that a toxin should self-destruct after a few hours. The toxin is released by algae in the presence of very high temperatures and in courses where the water tends to stagnate and then poor oxygen. If the water starts to flow starts to oxygenate surpassing the coverage of algae. In this way the virus botulinum dies because not resist the presence of oxygen. The same thing happens when the temperature drops " . Last year, a similar phenomenon caused a series of rashes and irritations in different wetting.

Object Driven Image Building implies credibility building
The Unicist Standard in image building uses business objects as a part of the credibility building process. The objective is to build a catalyst to accelerate commercial processes in business.
Image building begins with the demonstration that something unique can be produced. This expectancy needs to be proven after this demonstration happened.
To use business objects when building images it is necessary that the organizers be able to separate their inside from the outside and the functional reality from the perceived reality.
This process is simple but not easy when companies are small. It requires having previously separated the role of the business from the role of the owner.
Paradoxically, this is simple and easy in large companies that already have a powerful image, and difficult in small companies where the owner and the company are one.

If there is one thing in the world I hate most, it's the fact that there are people out there that can scare the bejezus out of you when you wake up one day to find that your website has been hacked and everything that you have in it is gone. The really weird thing about all this is that there were two sites I know off this happening within the last 24 hours.
It really sucks when something like that happens, it's worse when people so much effort into building something and have it wiped clean the next day. You know what makes it worse…the fact that this was a Malaysian Merdeka Blog…and the fact it was wipped clean of everything with no backed up database. Patriots would have their thing to say about this…and frankly I have many many things in my head to say about this.
It's just that no human word can describe it.
At least the good thing is that in Dustyhawk's case, it was a grey hat hack…which means what everything was returned in good time. Still…even though it's his blog that got hacked. I still feel for it. Why? Because I just FUCKING TWEAKED HIS SITE!! That was my hard work in it too and to see it gone like that…christ…I can just imagine the fit he'd have been in when he saw what happened in the morning.
Still…this is an important lesson to us all. A serious lesson to us all, more so when you are the one in complete control of your own website. No it wasn't a WordPress problem, I would know because there aren't any exploits to be exploited. One was due to a insanely SHORT password. The other one was due to a DNS security breech. If there is anything to be learnt from this is that passwords are the weakest link between you and you system…and I have said it before, for purpose of getting it into your skulls, I shall repeat it again.
Edrei's Simple Hack Prevention Technique:
- Have a longer harder password with numbers and stuff
- See 1
- See 1 again
- See 1 until you actually do change your password to a longer harder one with numbers and stuff
Just remember, on the net, hacking isn't just a crime, it's a survival trait. Be smart, stay smart. Protect yourself at all cost. You won't lose anything to be paranoid. Don't let yourself be the victim of stupidity.

|DIY Shadow Box Delight & Dwell
This is probably one of my most prized possessions. In November 2012 (two days before my birthday) we lost my buddy to lymphoma. He was the sweetest dog and he loved me unconditionally for all of his 11 years on this earth.
Anyone who owns and loves a special dog can understand the pain of this loss. Thank God our vet was amazing through this time. They also offered a special service where they make a clay paw print keepsake for the owners. It is a cherished memento, but it took a year and a half for me to be able to look at it without crying!
I knew I eventually wanted it to be part of our gallery wall. I found a 6"x 6" shadow box at Michael's (here) that was perfect for it, but I didn't like the black velvet backing.
I cut the fabric to the size of the shadow box backing, leaving excess fabric to hot glue to the back:
The next step was important because we needed an adhesive that was strong enough to hold the clay. I was not going risk damaging the paw print since it is irreplaceable.
My husband had a tube of Construction Adhesive that would prevent it from ever moving again. Once used it is permanent! We used PL 375 Heavy Duty Construction Adhesive (here) on the back of the clay paw print and glued it to the fabric/shadow box backing.
We let it dry overnight before framing and hanging it on the wall. Here is the end result:
|Paw Print Shadow Box Delight & Dwell
I absolutely love it and I am so grateful to our vet for Chim-Po's paw print. It's such a special way to memorialize our four-legged member of the family! Now I smile every time I see it.

The excellent Fanboy.com points to a beautiful mosaic Totoro rendered in dishes of paint from Japan. My mosaic is coming along well. The beads have all been painted/stained and now I'm nailing each one in the board. Though the completed bottom six rows look slightly uneven, that and the silver nailheads give it a nice, rustic look perfectly in keeping with the subject matter.
I really, really want to hop on this vintage Ride "Porpy" 10¢ machine:

Trolley Conversion
These pages briefly cover N-Scale traction. Although there have been N-Scale trolley models for many years, it is still very much a builders gauge. Which is to say, that if you want it, you are probably going to have to build it yourself. That said, it is easier today than it was thirty years ago, and as illustrated above, there is some very fine work being done.
If you are interested in the subject, your best resource is the Yahoo N-Scale Traction Discussion group, located here. Likewise, there are a number of other resources that supply N-Scale traction items, but because this area of the hobby is small, those resources often come and go. So, the Yahoo group is the best area for you to get a current feel for N-Scale traction in North America.
In many ways, the future is more promising than it has been in the past. Japan has proven to be a major source of traction related items, which is not surprising since so much of their railroad scene is electrified. In recent years, for example, Kato has introduced Unitram, a unified street railway system that complements their Unitrack product line:
Likewise, other manufacturers such as Micro-Ace, Bandai and others have offered trolley items. So, too, Tomix offers its own track system that includes a very sharp radius curve and plastic inserts to create street trackage:
And, some are too interesting for words:
So, theres opportunity out there, and a number of very skilled modelers to make it happen. And, you just might be one. Take a look at these few pages and maybe youll get the bug.

Experts agree that conducting a job search while you're employed is the best approach, since it makes you more attractive to potential employers. But you are walking a fine line and you need to carefully balance your current work responsibilities with your future plans.
Currently Employed? How Can You Start Looking for a Job?
While you're actively employed, you're perceived as more desirable to hiring managers – and you're in a position of greater negotiating strength.
- Employers have more confidence that you'll be a good hire.
- You likewise have more confidence, as well as less pressure than you would if job hunting when unemployed. You may want a new job, you may really need a new job, but you're not desperate to have one.
As you sell yourself to future employers, continue to do the job you're being paid for to the best of your ability. Stay productive and focused. It's in your best interest to finish strong and leave on a positive note.
Keep it Quiet
It's good practice to keep your job search confidential. It's not wise to share it with anyone at work. One misstep could mean a pink slop or irreparable damage to your reputation.
- Don't job hunt on the company's dime. Schedule phone calls and interviews on off hours. Use your own phone and computer, as many companies track Internet and telephone usage. Avoid using company copiers or sending out resumes via the mailroom.
- Don't use your company email address when job hunting. Restrict your search to your personal PC and utilize a separate email account. It only takes one inopportune message to alert your manager to your plans.
- Be sure your LinkedIn profile is complete. Your profile itself does not raise suspicion. But don't indicate on LinkedIn – or any social media – that you're in the job market.
- Be careful with your resume. Explain to those you give it to that your search is confidential. Even providing your resume to be privately circulated can be risky. Keep it confidential if you post it on job boards.
- Provide references on request only. Even then, do so with the caveat that information is confidential.
Take the High Road
This is one of the most important times in your career to act like the consummate professional that you are. Put those business savvy skills to use.
- Never speak negatively about your current employer. Keep the conversation focused on the benefits of moving forward and what you bring to the table. Focus on the new company, versus the old one.
- If the boss asks, be honest. You may already be at risk, but use this as an opportunity to air your concerns and explain your position. Lying or trying to cover up the truth will only make it worse. Try an approach such as, "I'm a little unsure about my opportunities here, so I'm just considering a Plan B."

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Longtime industry leader Clyde Rutherford was recognized at Dairy Farmers of America, Inc.'s (DFA) 12th Annual Meeting as the recipient of the inaugural Tom Camerlo Leadership Award. The award was created to honor the legacy of late DFA Board Chairman Tom Camerlo, who passed away in December 2009.
"For more than 35 years, Clyde worked alongside Tom in pursuit of a better dairy industry," said Rick Smith, president and chief executive officer. "I know Tom would be immensely proud to see his longtime friend and colleague receiving such well-deserved recognition."
The Tom Camerlo Leadership Award celebrates a lifetime of leadership, vision, dedication and commitment to the dairy industry. This award is given to leaders who have demonstrated exceptional commitment to working for dairy farmers and has made a positive impact on the U.S. and global dairy industry.
In honor of Rutherford, a $5,000 contribution was made to DFA's scholarship program through the DFA Cares Foundation.
Rutherford is president and chairman of Dairylea Cooperative Inc., a position he has held since 1978. In addition, he is active with a number of industry associations on the national and regional level. Rutherford serves on DFA's Board of Directors, is on the board of the Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy and is vice chairman of the board of directors for National Milk Producers Federation.
He also is vice chairman of Dairy One, a director for the U.S. Dairy Export Council, on the board of O-AT-KA Milk Products Cooperative, Inc. and on the executive committee of Empire Livestock Marketing LLC. He serves on the board of BlueCross BlueShield of Central New York.
Outside of his industry work, Rutherford and his wife, Jeannette, enjoy spending time with their family – daughter and son-in-law Diane and David Krol and their children, Alex and John; and daughter and son-in-law Nancy and Mike Gorelick and their children, Allison and Emily.

Hormonal Contraception
Birth-control options such as the Pill use synthetic versions of your body's reproductive hormones to prevent ovulation, the release of an egg needed for a successful pregnancy. While some contain both estrogen and progestin, breastfeeding moms should choose one that only contains progestin, as estrogen can make it more difficult to produce enough breast milk. Progestin-only choices may decrease menstrual cramping and lower your risk of pelvic infection, but a few women will experience nausea, headaches, or irregular bleeding.
* Minipills, an oral contraceptive, are 94 to 96 percent effective when taken at the same time every day.
* Depo-Provera, an injection administered by a doctor or nurse, protects for three months at a time and is 99.7 percent effective. Note that the return of fertility may be delayed for three months after stopping it.
* Mirena is an intrauterine contraceptive that can be inserted right after delivery and lasts for five years. It is 99.9 percent effective and has the lowest hormonal dose available.
* Implanon, to be available in 2004, is a single, flexible, plastic implant placed under the skin. It releases a low hormone dose and is 99.9 percent effective for up to three years.
Barrier methods
These are hormone-free options that offer protection from sexually transmitted diseases. These choices are slightly less effective, but with the added protection that breastfeeding offers, they almost always prevent pregnancy if used properly.
* A diaphragm is a rubber disk used with spermicide to cover the opening of the uterus; it's 80 percent effective. It can't be fitted to a woman's cervix until about six weeks after delivery. (If you were using one before pregnancy, your doctor will need to refit you.)
* A cervical cap is a rubber thimble-like device used with spermicide that suctions onto the cervix; it has a 60 to 80 percent effectiveness. (The above fitting guidelines also apply.)
* Condoms are a convenient and inexpensive option that are 86 percent effective.

For the first time this season a total of four Blues have earned a place in AFL Media's 'Team of the Week', following Carlton's 10-point win over the Gold Coast Suns at Metricon Stadium.
As significant contributors to the Blues' fifth victory of 2017, Bryce Gibbs, Sam Docherty, Kade Simpson and Liam Jones were selected in the Round 13 squad of 22.
An outstanding 43-disposal, 10-tackle and two-goal display from midfielder Bryce Gibbs granted the 28-year-old a spot in the side as a follower, alongside West Coast's Nathan Vardy and Port Adelaide's Ollie Wines.
In Gibbs' company, backline trio Docherty, Simpson and Jones represented half of the Round 13 team's defence, with Simpson and Docherty named as half-backs alongside Richmond's Alex Rance, while Jones was named as a backman alongside Tiger David Astbury and Demon Michael Hibberd.
Docherty landed a place in this week's team after he amassed 30 disposals at 97 percent efficiency, while Simpson earned his selection with 33 disposals, 15 marks and a game-high 14 intercepts during the clash with the Suns.
In addition to the pair, Jones snapped up a position in the side after he kept Suns spearhead Tom Lynch goalless with just 10 touches. In just his second senior game in 2017, the 26-year-old also managed 12 disposals and six marks.
Following the match, senior coaches Brendon Bolton and Rodney Eade afforded votes to each of the four Blues for the 2017 Shadforth Financial Group AFLCA Champion Player of the Year Award.
While Docherty, Simpson and Jones received eight, five and three votes respectively, Gibbs was one of five players across all six matches to be honoured with the maximum 10 votes.
FEROCIOUS! @BGibbsy4 wins our Mercury Hard Cider Hardest Hit of the Week. #AFLSunsBlues #BoundByBlue pic.twitter.com/Bj8K5a0mj7— Carlton FC (@CarltonFC) June 19, 2017
The coaches also gave votes to experienced heads Marc Murphy (2) and Matthew Kreuzer (1), as well as Gold Coast midfielder Jarryd Lyons (1).
The six Blues will look to perform strongly again when Carlton goes head-to-head with Richmond on Sunday 25 June at the MCG.

CNC to make it easy for gardeners, landscapers to 'go native'
European settlers paddled up the Tittabawassee River in the 1700s into a region of forests and meadows.
By Steve Griffin
European settlers paddled up the Tittabawassee River in the 1700s into a region of forests and meadows. Almost immediately, they introduced favorite plants from elsewhere, often to the disadvantage of local flowers, grasses and other vegetation.
The time has come, some say, to welcome back some of those native plants. And hence, this weekend's first-ever Native Plant Sale at the Chippewa Nature Center.
"We want to encourage people to know the natives and use them," said Karen Breternitz, CNC horticulturalist. The sale, a fund-raiser, "fits well within our mission."
There are several reasons to consider growing native plants, said Breternitz.
Two big ones? Native plants are part of Midland's original landscape. And they're easy.
The list is long: big bluestem to bee balm, Christmas fern to yellow birch tree. Dozens of grasses, rushes, sedges, wildflowers, ferns, trees, shrubs and woody vines are available this weekend, many at a couple of dollars per two-inch pot.
Experts will offer advice, helping new native-plant gardeners tend old plants.
"The benefits of the native plants are phenomenal," said Breternitz.
For one thing, many of them have deeper roots than introduced plants. The roots of the prairie dock flower, in fact, can reach down 17 feet.
"It can break through the hard pan that we have in this area," said Breternitz, "so that the water can go down through the soil and renew the aquifer, instead of running off in ditches and rivers."
Thus, the plant resumes an important ecological job it performed before settlement crowded it out.
Because native plants "have been here for thousands of years," Barbara Sharpe, CNC's director of marketing and communications, said in an e-mail, "they are well suited for Michigan's cold winters and hot summers."
Often, they also have adapted defenses against diseases that threaten non-natives. "Natives are just easier to grow than nursery plants and cultivars," said Breternitz.
She said nearly all of the plants offered this weekend are perennials.
One annual is named "everlasting" - not a misnomer, said Breternitz, "since it will self-seed and come back. It's a great host plant for butterflies; it smells good, like maple syrup."
Many of the species were chosen for their relationship with other organisms, such as bees, butterflies and other pollinators.
"Our pollinators are more adapted to these plants," said Breternitz. "More apt to go after them saying, 'Hey, that's in my diet.'" The sale offers complete butterfly garden kits, one each for moist or dry locations, each featuring 32 plants for $60 per flat.
CNC acquired its plants for the weekend sale through Wildtype, a Lansing-area nursery specializing in native plants.
The Native Plant Sale will take place from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, and 1 to 4 p.m. Sunday. Cash, checks and credit cards will be accepted. A list of plant species that will be available can be found at www.chippewanaturecenter.org.

Investing vs. Mortgage Debt Reduction
There is a debate that rages on in the world of Canadian finance regarding what the best path is for the public to achieve their highest individual net worth possible. With assets the way they are, this seems to come down to whether to pay off mortgages, or to invest in their RRSP funds and other mortgage investment corporation outlets. The traditional mode of thinking that many people follow states the following: it's better to get out of debt and pay off what is already owed, including the mortgage, before investing in other endeavors.
However, new ways to look at finances have decreed that there are actually pros and cons to each mode of Mortgage Investment Corporation. When it comes to investing vs. mortgage debt reduction, there are a number of options to consider. Many of these factors come down to the interest rates of mortgage term vs. those of loans that you would take out to invest. If you have already drained your RRSP funds, and need to take out more money in order to invest it back either into the stock market or into the RRSP, there are different levels of interest rates that you could expect to pay.
The good thing about keeping your mortgage terms rather than paying them off is that mortgage interest rates for long term plans tend to stay pretty low. Therefore it makes sense in a way to take out other, high-interest loans, with the sole intent of investing them into other areas, and then paying them back quickly once you have started seeing returns off through your mortgage investment corporation outlet. This will depend on what you are investing in, and should not be a plan that is undertaken by those with no experience in the stock market or with other best investment procedures.
A benefit of paying off your mortgage as quickly as possible would be that you will help raise your credit rating, which can also come in handy for future best investment(s). If you are planning on purchasing a new home, for instance, it would behove you to pay off your debts and mortgage in full, in order to go into a new plan of financing without any excess financial baggage hanging over your paperwork. This can be beneficial in the long run for future homeowners or those who are still at a young age.
There is not only age to consider when weighing the pros and cons of investing vs. mortgage/debt reduction. Having a family to support will also weigh into this decision, if you are most likely going to have to start paying tuition fees for your children, or help support them with their own financial issues as they struggle down the path to financial independence. You may need to help them buy their own first home, or other issues along these lines. These are but a few of the different items to think about.
Seeking the advice of a professional financial adviser who is skilled in the world of mortgage repayments is essential before making any major decisions regarding this matter. Going to an independent financier is recommended over going to the banks, because the banks have more at stake in terms of keeping you on their own terms, in debt to them, and will of course tell you to lengthen your mortgage terms or refinance the home through them. Before visiting a professional, you should make a list of questions that you may have regarding financial terms and services, as well as list of your own assets.
It seems then that there is no clear answer to this that is suitable for every person, as is the case with most financial issues in Canada. When it comes to investing vs. mortgage and debt reduction, the best plan may actually be a combination of both. Investing some money into the RRSP account, as well as purchasing stocks and bonds, could be a good way of ensuring future capital and increasing net worth. On the other hand, reducing personal debt and paying off outstanding mortgage amounts is also clearly a worthwhile pursuit. For those who are paying attention to their finances and have budgeted extra money, it is clear that both outlets should be used.

This dress has been in my closet for a long while and I wear it quite often. It's such a nice fabric, soft & flowy. So obviously a outfit post with this dress couldn't miss on my blog!
Dress: Hell Bunny | Hairflower: Stijlvol | Shoes: Graceland | Bag: Vintage
Recently I bought this darling hairflower at a local store in Dordrecht called "Stijlvol". A store filled with retro-inspired clothing, which obviously made me very happy! I come there very often and since I like trying on my dresses before I buy them (I am 1.71 and some dresses are too short on me) I buy most of my dresses at that store. When it began selling hairflowers, other accesoires and even home decoration I was way too happy about it and immediately bought two hairflowers. One of those was this red one, isn't it adorable? I think it goes really well with this dress as it makes the red colour of the apples pop even more!
I went to the city with my boyfriend the day that I wore this dress. I really do love it, because it's perfect for summer. It's made out of a very light fabric and it flows around just perfectly! I paired it with my t-straps, because at the moment those are my favorite shoes to wear! And since it's summer I just like it better to wear lighter colours. I finished the outfit with my vintage retro handbag, which I got from my boyfriends grandparents. It was just the perfect shade of red!

Our Giandujotti artisanally made with the traditional Extrusion method
In 1964 Giuseppe Gobino, father of Guido, thanks to the experience gained since 1950 in the refining of cocoa, joined the company as a production manager. He then became the sole owner in 1980, when the company starts an in-depth process of specialization and research in the field of chocolate, giving priority to local products such as Giandujotto and the Gianduja spread cream.
The family tradition is renewed in the early 90′s, with a major restructuring of production processes, but always respecting the ancient recipes of Torino.
The typical, first, golden wrapped-giandujotto
During those years, the real business endeavour of Guido Gobino began, by constantly inventing new products while enhancing taste for the traditional chocolates.
The "Laboratorio Artigianale del Giandujotto" was born, developped to achieve maximum quality standards in Giandujotto production. Main focuses of this project were the usage of the best raw materials, together with the adoption of the most traditional production process. It was the method called "Extrusion", by which each Giandujotto is like a drop of chocolate that stands up by itself, even if made without any mould. When produced by extrusion, giandujotti are really artisanally made and they represent unique "master-pieces", as they always look different one each other.
In 1996 Guido Gobino founded the first institutional brand and logotype, made in two versions and enriched by the new "Selezione Guido Gobino" brand extension, written in black background with horizontal and round with the distinctive "G" in the center, to identify new product lines as more exclusive.
The first wrapping of our Giandujottini Tourinot
In 2003 the factory store in Via Cagliari, located above the laboratory production, was completely renovated while the awareness of Guido Gobino Chocolate Selection began to consolidate, outstanding for the high quality of its ingredients and the uniqueness of the products.
During the 2006 Winter Olympic Games, Guido Gobino was appointed "Ambassador of Turin", along with 80 other representatives of the business world and culture in Piedmont.
In 2007, Guido Gobino opened the first real "Bottega" and he chose an ancient building downtown Turin, located in Via Lagrange 1 / A, just in the most central and monumental spot of the city.
The mural by Truly Design® on the outside wall of our Factory
In 2008 he obtained the recognition as "the world's best praline" awarded by the "Academy of Chocolate" of London for the Sea Salt Cremino with Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
From 2009 until today, the company obtained important honorable mentions, from the various "Tavoletta d'Oro" awards, until the "Academy of Chocolate" awards and the every year certification for being a "Maestro del Gusto".
In 2010 Guido Gobino opened the new Bottega in Milan and in 2014 the new point of sales and tasting in the Turin Airport, developped thanks to the great Pininfarina Design.

It's been one hell of a week for the Shadow family, so they're grateful for a couple of days in which nothing too eventful happens. On Friday, Arthur and Gwen meet a couple of Rosicrucian operatives in Century Park, handing over the Head of Fludd in exchange for a briefcase full of money – enough to make life significantly easier for a while.
With Thomas off doing his own thing, the others spend Saturday preparing for the next Shadow Market in two weeks, then go out for drinks at Vic's favourite bar, the 8-Ball Haemorrhage. Arthur is approached by a man trying to sell 'unusual antiquities', who had arranged to sell them to the Rosicrucians only for them to cancel the sale – since Arthur has a growing reputation as a rival/foil for the Rosicrucians, he hopes the Shadows will help him find a buyer. Arthur is interested until he realises the man is trading in Nazi memorabilia, and sends him packing. This prompts a discussion about the Rosicrucians as a whole, whether the Shadows know enough about the group and if they really want to set themselves in opposition. The discussion continues as the Shadows eat at Hong's 24-hour Noodle House and then go back to the 8-Ball Haemorrhage for more drinks, with Charlotte interjecting whenever she finds anything interesting on the Rosicrucians' Wikipedia entry.
On Sunday, Charlotte heads to New Jerusalem University to go exploring the cloisters with Ned Chan and the Cave Clan (not noticing the tiny wisp-ghost stowing away in her backpack). It's a small group – just the two of them plus Amy (an anthropology student) and Rat (a grumpy computer science student) – and Ned takes the lead, getting them through secure doors into the old tunnels underneath the university complex. The group treks through old storage rooms and access ladders, Amy photographing 1970s graffiti for her thesis, Rat filming background scenes for a rail shooter, the wisp-ghost tumbling through shadows into the sewers below and Ned bravely claiming that he didn't mean this as a date despite clearly meaning it to be a date. Fortunately, Charlotte is observant enough to find the other two when they get lost, and fast enough to save Ned's life with a quick spell when he falls through a broken catwalk!
Ned has fallen into the University's disused generator complex, a collection of engines, boilers and machines that used to power the whole campus decades ago. It's all dusty, broken and abandoned now, but there are signs of recent activity. Amy finds chalk graffiti on a boiler saying CALL THE SHADOWS, with a severed skeletal hand still holding the chalk nearby, while Rat finds a patch of greenish blood surrounding a bullet hole on a wall.
Before they can investigate further, the old machines rattle and shake, and a cacophony of shrieks and wails rise from below, as a swarm of maddened ghosts boils up from the sewers, calling Charlotte's name! She's the only one who can see them, but everyone knows that something's wrong, and the Cavers run for the surface as the foamy mass of ghosts pursues them.
Charlotte directs the Clan as Ned opens doors and pushes away obstacles, but the ghosts are close behind and gaining on them. As they get close to the surface, Ned tries to draw the ghosts away to save Charlotte and the others. Charlotte doesn't want to be saved, and tries to stop him, but too late – the ghosts engulf Ned and draw him back down into the tunnels! Charlotte texts her family, asking them to come help, and then goes back down into the darkness to find her friend.
Back at the antiques shop, Gwen has returned from a day of investigating the child disappearance case, and Arthur from working his connections to learn more about the Rosicrucians. They get Charlotte's text and prepare to leave, but a stranger comes into the shop. He flashes a badges, identifies himself as Detective Grant Walker from the New Jerusalem police, and says he needs their help to find the missing children – before a Satanic cult sacrifices them to the Devil at midnight tonight!

Because of the sub-arctic temperatures we are all forced indoors. This means that I get a little stir crazy and sadly photography takes a turn for the "staged and strange". Lucky for me I've got a very cute subject who willingly hams it up for the camera. I thought I would share some of our "Very Merry Christmas" set.
My always-cute and FREE model (if ever there was a reason to have a baby thats the most important).
Let's not be lazy, get the Christmasy PJ's on.
Hard to believe, but this is the face of a criminal mastermind. Toothbrush in the toilet anyone?
Thanks for looking. Now if I could just get the older boy to be as willing a model, unfortunately he's a paid model now. Candy, cookies, money, everyone has their price.

Tahini sounds like a weird component of a cookie recipe but trust me, these are good. Crisp on the outside but lovely and chewy once you take a bite, I found the wholemeal spelt flour added a really nice malt flavour! There's a hint of banana flavour which adds a slight sweetness along with the honey.
These are vegan and can easily be made gluten free by using gluten free oats & baking soda.
- 150g wholemeal spelt flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 50g rolled oats
- 50g walnuts, broken up
- 50g olive oil
- 50g honey
- 1 tbsp tahini
- 1 large over ripe banana, mashed up
- golden linseeds, for decoration
Preheat a fan oven to 175° and line a large baking tray with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the spelt flour, rolled oats, baking soda and walnuts.
In a seperate bowl, mix together the olive oil, honey, tahini and banana and mix well.
Add the wet ingredients to the large mixing bowl and gently fold it in until its fully combined.
To make the cookies, take a tablespoon of the cookie dough and roll it in your hands into a golf ball sized balls.
Place them evenly dispersed out on the baking sheet. Gently press down on each of the cookie dough balls with a fork to flatten them to about 1 cm in depth.
Sprinkle the golden linseeds on top of each before placing them in the oven for 15 minutes. Half way through, flip the cookies so as not to burn the bottom!
Leave to cool completely on a wire rack to allow them crisp up nicely.

Gratitude Leaves a Priceless Imprint on Students' Lives
"Some people are the beginning of so much good," Len Froyen says. "They generously see themselves as an offering. They graciously make space for everyone, strangers and friends alike."
This quote posted on Froyen's Facebook page, meant to inspire others, drew comments such as: "That's you, Len" and "I see yourself in all of these attributes. We are grateful for you."
Anyone who knows Len agrees that he lives a life of gratitude. In fact, he wrote a book titled Gratitude: Affirming One Another Through Stories. His book is based on his experiences as a spiritual director, ordained deacon and educator.
Len graduated from the University of Northern Iowa in 1957 and joined the faculty in 1963. He taught in the Department of Education and Psychology. Although he retired in 1994, he stays connected to students through campus activities and through his position as deacon at St. Stephen the Witness Catholic Student Center in Cedar Falls.
One of the many ways Froyen and his wife, Gail '67 '87, express their gratitude is through the gift of scholarship.
The Len and Gail Froyen Scholarship supports students accepted into the UNI Teacher Education program. Over the past 42 years, they also have supported the Class of 1957 Heritage Endowed Fund, Panther Scholarship Club, Friends of Gallagher-Bluedorn Performing Arts Center, and are founding members of the Lang Society.
"When I am feeling grateful, I want to do something to help other people feel the same way," Len says.

CBS scored a technical victory over AMERICAN IDOL this past Thursday among that coveted 18-49 age demographic. However, AMERICAN IDOL did manage to capture an overall estimated 16.99 viewers compared to THE BIG BANG THEORY which drew an estimated 15,.96 million viewers. ROB was the third strongest show on Thursday with an estimated 11.58 million viewers, or nearly four times as many viewers as PARKS & RECREATION on NBC.
Rob Schneider has to be pretty pleased that he finally has a hit comedy associated with him. Usually, the word "hit", and Rob Schneider usually never appear in the same sentence. Part of the appeal of the show is the funny relationship he has with the Mexican family of his Mexican wife, giving the show some appeal among the growing segment of Latin viewers. The show is becoming far more evenly written after after a jerky pilot episode that was critically panned. CBS is already proclaiming the show to be a "hit" in advertising. Another good sign is that the show's ratings have stabilized at the 11.5 million mark. proving that the show has found an audience. Signs look good at this point for CBS to possibly renew the show beyond the probable 8 episodes they bought.
Thursday was very good for both CBS and FOX, but terrible news for NBC. ABC's reruns of WIPEOUT, GREY'S ANATOMY and PRIVATE PRACTICE also fared very poorly as well. ABC pretty conceded last Thursday to the big CBS and FOX.

Snow leopard study in the Almaty area to be an international collaboration22 мая 2014, 13:06
Most of the world's endangered snow leopards live in countries where it's difficult for Westerners to conduct wildlife research – Pakistan and Afghanistan because of political turmoil and China because of red tape.
But Kazakhstan has no such obstacles – and in fact wants more research on its snow leopards.
That eagerness had led to a new project for a couple of globe-trotting biologists, Dr. Owen Nevin of Australia's Central Queensland University and Dr. Ian Convery of Great Britain's University of Cumbria.
The two, whom I interviewed recently on a Skype conference call, will be trying to determine how many snow leopards live in the 730-square-kilometer Almaty State Nature Reserve near Kazakhstan's largest city.
They will also be trying to assess whether climate change is having an impact on the snow leopard population in the reserve's 5,000-meter-high Tian Shen Mountains.
The study's ultimate goal is to come up with ways to save the cats, of course. Between 4,500 and 7,000 snow leopards exist in the wild, 60 percent of them in China, Owen said.
The seeds for the Kazakhstan snow-leopard study were sown when Owen and Ian went to the Almaty nature reserve two years ago to study Owen's specialty: brown bears.

They set up camera traps to photograph the bears as part of an effort to determine their numbers.
And they did a habitat assessment – that is, an evaluation of whether the environment offered enough resources for the bears to thrive.
While they were doing the bear project, the reserve staff "mentioned they often saw snow leopards," Owen said. "They were particularly keen to do a snow leopard project in the park."
That desire led to a collaboration among Owen, Ian, the reserve and the Energy and Ecology Department of Kazakh National University in Almaty.
The Snow Leopard Network, an international organization that is trying to save the species, provided a $50,000 grant to fund the project.
The study will be "a very important first step in population monitoring and understanding the impacts of climate change on the snow leopard in Kazakhstan," said Dr. Charadutt Mishra, the executive director of the Seattle, Washington-based Snow Leopard Network. "So far, not a single study in Kazakhstan has undertaken a robust population estimation of the snow leopard, let alone population monitoring."
The main tool the researchers will use to determine the leopard population will be camera traps.
In July or August they will set up about 60 to 80 camera traps on ridges or trails the leopards frequent.
The cameras contain infrared sensors. When an animal passes by, a sensor detects its body heat, prompting the camera to take a picture.
Researchers get the best photo results when they place the cameras at "constriction points" – narrow places the animals pass through.
One kind of constriction point is a ridge that a snow leopard has to cross.
Another is a game trail used by both predator and prey.
"Game trails tend to overlap on each other – a lot of species use the trails," Owen noted.
The reserve staff will play a key role in deciding the camera trap locations, he said. "They know the park like the backs of their hand."
Only about 100 to 150 snow leopards are believed to be in the reserve, so "most of the animals we photograph will not be snow leopards but snow leopard prey," Ian said.
Dr. Ian Convery has studied snow leopards in Kyrgyzstan, too. Photo courtesy of Dr. Ian Convery.
The main prey are mountain goats and sheep, hares, pikas and birds. Pikas are chubby little rodents that have some features of mice and some features of rabbits.
Every individual animal in a species has distinguishing characteristics, so the camera traps will help the researchers identify how many leopards they've photographed. And that number will help them estimate the reserve's population.
"For any conservation project, knowing how many you have is of critical importance," Owen said. "You don't know whether you're succeeding if you don't know how many you have."
The reserve staff will maintain the camera traps during the 18-month study. Owen and Ian will return to the park in February or March of 2015 to check on the progress of the study and in July or August of 2015 to take a final look at the results.
They will also hold a workshop in Almaty in the spring of 2015 about their research, including the preliminary results.
The two researchers said they hope the reserve staff continues the work after the study period is over. That's the beauty of a project that "builds capacity" – that trains locals in how to use camera traps, conduct habitat assessment and obtain and evaluate other information, Ian said.
The question of whether climate change is affecting the park's snow leopards will be more difficult to determine than an estimate of the cats' numbers.
Anyone who has been to the mountains and lakes in the Almaty area can see climate change at work. Glaciers are shrinking, and the snow line is receding. And melting ice and snow are causing lakes in and below the mountains to swell.
Snow leopards do best above the tree line, or the area where vegetation grows.
"What snow leopards like is steep, rocky terrain – they don't particularly like trees," Owen said.

They've become adept at hunting prey in these no-vegetation conditions.
Climate change is raising the tree line, however.
Will the leopards be able to adapt to vegetation in their habitat, or will they suffer from the change?
Owen and Ian will try to decide that by using a scientific tool known as fuzzy logic modeling.
Fuzzy logic uses both quantitative data – the current number of leopards, for example – and qualitative data – such as assessment of habitat – to make predictions.
The modeling tool will do that by producing different scenarios of climate change, and how snow leopards are likely to fare under each.
A major climate-change threat to the leopards is whether they'll be able to catch as much prey in areas that once were rocky but now have vegetation.

Another threat is conflicts with those who raise livestock.
Climate change has led to shepherds grazing their flocks at higher elevations, encroaching on the snow leopards' range.
It's also led to herders grazing their animals longer in the mountains – later in the autumn and earlier in the spring. That's because climate change has spawned higher temperatures, delaying the onset of winter and hastening its end.
Although Owen and Ian are unaware of reports of conflicts between shepherds and snow leopards in Kazakhstan, "this is definitely happening in Kyrgyzstan," said Ian, who conducts research there.
Owen and Ian worked together at the University of Cumbria in Carlisle, England, before Owen became head of the Central Queensland University campus in Gladstone, Australia.
He has studied brown bears in British Columbia for two decades, and has also done research on black bears, grizzly bears, wolves and tigers.
Ian, who heads Cumbria's Center for Wildlife Conservation, has spent years doing research in Mozambique. One of his interests is the relationship between nature reserves and people living near them.

SLU DSP Volleyball
Well beach volleyball has pretty much taken up all of my spare time aside from work for the last few months... It has been some good training and preparing. My partner and I won 2nd place in the LIME/SLVBA tournament two weekends ago and a few of us are now preparing for the regional tournament next weekend. Exciting! I still have quite a few things to learn out on the sand, but I am really starting to love playing beach. Somehow it has pushed court volleyball further from my heart and taken over. :D Now I just need to start training harder and getting back into real shape. Time.

One of the questions most plumbers get is, How much do plumbers charge? Although this seems to be a simple, straightforward question, it isn't as easy as estimating the cost of an oil change on a car, nor as standard as the prices that are set for an annual safety and emissions check. Plumbing is unique, and we treat each job as a unique situation.
How Much Do Plumbers Charge
The three most common plumbing tasks are repairs, replacements, and new installations. Repairs are where we most often hear the " How much do plumbers charge " question because people like to compare—a reasonable request actually. However, whether the repair is a leaky faucet or a clogged drain, we want to know the details of the job before we give you an estimate so we don't overcharge you for a simple fix, and we don't hurry through a complex problem just so we can make a profit.
Some faucets that leak simply need something tightened or a quick replacement part and they are good for another ten years. Other faucets need a special part that we don't stock in our repair trucks, and we need to drive across town to a plumbing parts store before we can fix them. If we simply averaged the prices, most of the quick repairs—our bread and butter, to be honest—would be overcharged.
How about replacements and new installations? I imagine you're wondering. How much do plumbers charge for those? Like a repair, a new installation or a replacement needs to be estimated uniquely. Installing a water heater, for example, has additional possibilities in some homes that others lack. Do you have two water heaters hooked up in sequence? Do you have a water softener?
We have a lot of questions, and we want to make sure you are happy with the job and the price. So give us a call and let us give you an estimate!

Pillaton WI Report - September 2012
Childhood Internment in Shanghai
The well attended meeting began with a riot of laughter and chat as members gathered after the long summer break. Liz, our president was forced to shout at the meeting, to gain order as the tinkling of the order bell was drowned in the deluge of greeting.
The meeting proceeded with the usual business, signing of past minutes, talk of items from County News and the circulation of the menu for the next, harvest supper, meeting.
The speaker was Ann Moxley who spoke of her experiences of childhood internment in Shanghai under the Japanese from 1937-1945.
Usually experiences in our childhood stay deeply impressed within us, more vivid than more mundane experiences of the present day, so it was with our speaker. Ann was a tall, unassuming lady who spoke of her experiences at close quarters with an enemy, expanding her vivid childhood reality and placing it in the context of the historical upheaval.
A child of missionary parents and grandfather, who first went to China in 1887, where she and her siblings were born and it was obviously a country she had a great affinity for. Ann and her family seemed to have to survive the constant turbulence of warring factions, the upheaval of fleeing evacuees, flood, lightning strikes and the final internment in Linghua camp in Shanghai. Shanghai in those days was totally different, no skyscrapers, just marshy countryside!
Ann illustrated her talk with family photos, hand drawn maps of the camp, paintings and drawings done by the inmates and some official photos of the buildings the prisoners were housed in.We were told of her family's arrival at the camp on a number 22 bus, where the amalgamation of the former cavalry barracks and a school were to house 2,000 inmates. The new life was made endurable by the usual British efficiency that emerges at the most difficult of times. Ann's architect father was billeting officer, not an enviable task. Water was brackish and had to be boiled (to make it drinkable) at a special charcoal burning hut called Waterloo. Crops were grown to supplement the meagre rations, as hunger was always a problem. The prisoners became good at adapting to survive keeping chickens, pigs and goats, though the milk demanded by the Japanese guards had pee added, so they rejected it. The windowless and tin roofed buildings were very cold in the winter and, with a grossly inadequate diet, life must have been very difficult.
Education was not neglected as the camp was home to experts on all subjects who gave talks, and taught the children too. There was no paper except the inside of tinned food labels, but so excellent was the teaching that children got their school certificates and were later accepted for university.
The end of the war was marked by the Instrument of Surrender, followed by the liberation of the camp by the Americans, before finally returning to Britain on the RMS Arana, where a letter was read out from the king.
The talk was littered throughout with little anecdotes and points of note, to bring history to life. It was an indelible experience for Ann who was interned at nine and released at twelve and a half years old. Ann has retained contact with her fellow inmates, with a reunion on the HMS Belfast in 2005 and she said she would like to return to China some day.

RTL and LiveWall developed the Kroongetuige program, which can be watched weekly on RTL4. In the series facts and fiction intermingle: in a staged narrative in the Swedish town of Öregrund nine BN'ers must unlock codes, solve riddles, find a serial killer and discover who the Crown witness is among the detectives: the one who tries to sabotage the investigation.
As an extension of the program, the whole of the Netherlands can follow through the Kroongetuige App. Here you could make your own police report, collect evidence and choose your suspected Crown witness. In addition, players are given additional instructions and background information by solving puzzles and executing assignments.
Games provide engagement and entertainment to a broad target group. Through mobile app gaming, LiveWall was able to create attractive branded content that led to a great social traction. In addition, the game aspect ensures long and intensive contact with the Kroongetuige target group.
Facts and figures
According to mobile attribution company Tune, the engagement that is created with a game is many times stronger than that of music and other entertainment. In addition, gamers are happy that they are challenged and aided by the producer of the game. The use of an in-app game created new platforms and social communities, which were set up by fans themselves.
In addition to the celebrities, car brand Suzuki also had a big role in crown witness. As a sponsor of the program, Suzuki supplied three Vitaras to the brand new research team. The cars could be admired in the Swedish landscape and became fully-fledged extras to the show. Also in the app the allroaders were put in the spotlight, by involving them in various mini-games.
For the commercial and images for the program and app, LiveWall and its video branch, 15seconds, traveled to Sweden for the most beautiful images. In the app we also used 360-degree videos, all shot by LiveWall's Video Production Company 15seconds.
According to the latest figures (Dec. 2017), the Kroongetuige App had more than 80,000 users and the app received more than 182.458 votes.

I cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay at Casa Floriana. The apartment is beautifully appointed and has everything you could need for your stay. It was very clean. The location could not be better as you overlook Piazza Castello. I have nothing but good memories of this wonderful apartment in Turin. Floriana and her son Frederico were pleasure to deal with.
Excellent centrally situated appartment on the main Piazza. Very close to attractions such as the Palazzo Reale and the Via Roma with its beautiful shops under the lovely porticos. Very convenient for the station and other public transport. The appartment is very modern, very well maintained. Well equipped and tea, coffee etc supplied. Frederico was very helpful with advice on cafes, shops for provisions. Would not hesitate to recommend and would stay again.

Signs That Jaw Pain Might be TMD
Do you suffer from jaw pain? Or maybe you hear snapping, clicking or other such sounds when you yawn, talk or chew? If so, you may have a temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD).
This still not completely understood type of ailment encompasses a slew of dysfunctions and can range from mildly uncomfortable to downright agonizing. TMD affects millions of North Americans and can be either a temporary condition or one that lasts for many years. If you think you might have TMD, it's best to consult with a dentist at your local Skyview Dental Clinic in Calgary.
What are temporomandibular joints?
Temporomandibular joints are hinge-like components that connect your upper and lower jaws. They're highly specialized parts of your body that can move both up and down and from left to right, thereby allowing speech, chewing, yawning, sneezing and other facial movements.
What causes TMD?
TMDs can occur for a number of reasons. They may be the result of an injury, dislocation, bruxism, stress or other cause. Some research indicates that women are more susceptible to TMDs, possibly because of anatomical differences within the disc supporting the joint. In many cases, the cause behind the TMD remains unknown.
What are the most common symptoms of TMD?
TMD doesn't always present the same way and may be associated with somewhat different symptoms in each patient. However, the following are some of the more common indications of a TMD.
- Jaw pain or pain in the muscles surrounding the jaw
- Lockjaw or difficulty opening your mouth
- Trouble chewing or talking
- Clicking, popping or grating sounds when you move your jaw
- Frequent headaches
- Sore neck and shoulders
- Earaches and/or tinnitus
- A misaligned bite
- Swelling on the side of your face
How is TMD treated?There are many things our Calgary dentists from Skyview Ranch Dental could recommend, depending on the specifics involved in your particular case. The following are commonly prescribed treatments:
- Over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen or naproxen.
- Stronger prescription drugs like muscle relaxants or anti-anxiety medication.
- Apply heat or ice packs to the area, or some combination of the two.
- A soft food diet or a diet that prohibits hard, crunchy foods.
- Restriction of your jaw movements (yawning, yelling, singing, gum chewing or other such actions).
- Practising good posture.
- A mouth guard
- Dental work if your bite needs to be corrected.

CONTACT: Dr. Watson Scott Swail email@example.com (757) 430-2200
VIRGINIA BEACH, VA, October 16, 2007 — The Educational Policy Institute, a non-profit research center devoted to the study of educational opportunity, has released a new web-based tool to assist postsecondary institutions in assessing their ability to help students succeed.
In development since late 2005, the ISRA was developed to fulfill a need among institutions of higher education to conduct a self-audit about their ability to serve students, especially those who are historically underrepresented at the postsecondary level, including students of color and those from low-income backgrounds.
"An instrument like this has been needed for a long time," says EPI president Dr. Watson Scott Swail. "Institutions want to learn how best to serve students, but they first need to take an internal look to determine what they do to help students and what policies and practices in place may actually hinder student success."
The ISRA assists institutional teams by directing their assessment process via a series of questions regarding a variety of critical areas on campus, including financial aid, student services, academic services, recruitment and admissions, and teaching and learning. As Swail suggests, the important part is less the information and more the process. "Institutions need to know what to ask and what to do, and that's what this instrument facilitates. If nothing else, it points them in the direction towards a student retention plan."
The ISRA was developed with generous financial support from Lumina Foundation for Education. During the development of the ISRA, several institutions of higher education piloted the instrument and provided feedback for revisions. Included were the University of Winnipeg (Manitoba), the University of Colorado at Denver (Colorado), Old Dominion University (Virginia), and Augusta Technical College (Georgia). The instrument is free for use by institutions until February 28, 2008. For more information, please contact the Educational Policy Institute at firstname.lastname@example.com or (757) 430-2200. Visit the ISRA website at www.isra-online.com.
The views expressed in this project are those of the authors and do not necessarily represent those of the Lumina Foundation, its officers, or employees.
