Aid, Pro-Poor Expenditure and Welfare
The objective is to test the hypothesis that aid can improve the welfare of the poor. Part of this effect is direct, if aid is targeted on the poor, and part is indirect, via the transmission channel of aid-financed public spending on social services - sanitation, education and health. This indirect part is represented in an index of pro-poor public expenditures (PPE). As comparative data on poverty levels are scarce, two indicators of the welfare of the poor are used, namely infant mortality and the Human Development Index (HDI). A residual generated regressor is used to obtain a coefficient on the aid variable that includes the indirect effects through public expenditure allocation induced by aid. Estimation is based on a pooled panel of 39 countries over the period 1980 to 1998. Results in support of our hypothesis that 'pro-poor' public expenditure is associated with increased levels of welfare, and evidence is found that aid is associated with improved values of the welfare indicators because aid finances pro-poor spending. In this way, aid potentially benefits the poor.

I have created a new site http://www.vlab.co.uk/beehive/index.html
The alignment etc is not complete in IE but all links work correctly
Whereas the alignment seems fine in FF but few of the links work.
Trying to use images for the centrenav
Have a deadline of tomorrow eve and going round in circles trying to work out.
Any help would be great!
Can you be specific about which links don't work?
On the right-hand side, the list of links works fine, though the top two items have the same URL.
I also can't select any text in the body of the webpage, which I think has something to do with your absolute positioning.
I think I've managed to solve it - lifted the image links in the centre (and any other links not working) using position: relative; z-index:1
Thank you

One of the most useful ideas I've been offered regarding Wedding celebration Photography is to obtain the couple to plan ahead about the shots that they would certainly like you to record on the day as well as compile a checklist so that you could examine them off. This is particularly practical in the family shots. There's nothing worse compared to obtaining the images back and understanding you didn't photo the satisfied pair with grandmother!
2. Wedding event Digital photography Family members Image Organizer
I find the household photo part of the day can be rather stressful. People are going almost everywhere, you're uninformed of the different family members dynamics at play and also people are in a 'festive spirit' (and have actually usually been consuming alcohol a couple of spirits) to the point where it can be fairly chaotic. Get the couple to choose a member of the family (or one for each side of the family) that can be the 'supervisor' of the shoot. They can round every person up, help obtain them in the shot and maintain points moving to ensure that the couple can get back to the celebration. Pittsburgh Engagement Photography
3. Hunt the Location
Go to the areas of the different locations that you'll be shooting before the special day. While I make sure most Pros do not do this– I locate it actually practical to recognize where we're going, have a suggestion of a couple of settings for shots and also to know how the light could enter into play. On a couple of wedding events I also checked out areas with the couples and took a couple of test shots (these made nice 'interaction images').
4. In Wedding celebration Photography Preparation is Secret
A lot can go wrong on the day– so you need to be well prepared. Have a backup strategy (in case of bad climate), have actually batteries billed, sd card blank, think of courses as well as time to obtain to locations and also get a schedule of the complete day so you know what's occurring following. If you can, participate in the wedding rehearsal of the ceremony where you'll gather a great deal of excellent information concerning feasible positions to shoot from, the lights, the order of the ceremony and so on
5. Establish expectations with the Couple.
Show them your work/style. Learn what they are wanting to achieve, the amount of shots they desire, what key things they intend to be taped, how the shots will be used (print etc). If you're billing them for the event, make certain you have the agreement of cost in place in advance.
6. Shut off the audio on your Cam.
Beeps throughout speeches, the kiss and also promises do not include in the occasion. Switch off sound prior to hand and keep it off.
7. Fire the small details.
Photograph rings, backs of outfits, shoes, flowers, table setups, menus etc– these assistance offer the end cd an additional dimension. Flick via a wedding event magazine in a news mean a little inspiration. Pittsburgh Engagement Photography
8. Usage Two Cameras.
Beg, borrow, employ or steal an additional cam for the day– established it up with a different lens. I aim to fire with one vast angle lens (wonderful for candid shots and also in tight spaces (especially prior to the event in the preparation phase of the day) and one longer lens (it can be helpful to have something as big as 200mm if you can get your practical one– I utilize a 70-200mm).
9. Think about a 2nd Wedding Digital photographer.
Having a second back-up photographer can be an excellent technique. It indicates much less moving around throughout event and speeches, permits one to catch the formal shots and the various other to obtain honest shots. It also takes a little stress off you being 'the one' to have to obtain every shot!
10. Be Bold but Not Noticeable.
Timidity will not obtain you 'the shot'– often you need to be bold to catch a minute. However timing is every little thing as well as planning ahead to obtain in the appropriate position for essential moments are important so as not to interfere with the occasion. In an event I attempt to walk around at least 4-5 times but attempt to time this to accompany tunes, sermons or longer readings. During the formal shots be bold, know just what you want and also ask for it from the couple and their celebration. You're owning the program at this moment of the day and need to maintain things removaling.
11. Learn ways to Utilize Diffused Light.
The ability to jump a flash or to diffuse it is key. You'll discover that in lots of churches that light is very reduced. If you're allowed to use a flash (and some churches do not allow it) think about whether jumping the flash will certainly work (bear in mind if you bounce off a colored surface it will include a tinted cast to the picture) or whether you could intend to purchase a flash diffuser to soften the light. If you can't make use of a flash you'll should either utilize a fast lens at vast apertures and/or bump up the ISO. A lens with photo stablizing may also help. Discover more regarding Utilizing Flash Diffusers as well as Reflectors.
12. Fire in RAW.
I recognize that numerous readers really feel that they don't have the moment for shooting in RAW (as a result of added processing) however a wedding celebration is one-time that it can be particularly helpful as it gives so much more adaptability to manipulate shots after taking them. Wedding celebrations could offer professional photographers with complicated lighting which result in the need to control direct exposure and also white balance after the reality– RAW will certainly help with this substantially.
13. Present Your Shots at the Reception
Among the terrific features of digital photography is the immediacy of it as a medium. One of the enjoyable things I've seen more and more professional photographers doing lately is taking a computer system to the function, posting shots taken earlier in the day as well as letting them revolve as a slide show during the evening. This adds a fun element to the night.
14. Consider Your Backgrounds
One of the challenges of weddings is that there are commonly individuals going almost everywhere– including the backgrounds of your shots. Specifically with the formal shots extent out the location where they'll be taken in advance looking for excellent histories. Ideally you'll be desiring clean areas and also shaded spots from straight sunlight where there's unlikely to be a wandering excellent aunt wander right into the back of the shot. Learn more on obtaining backgrounds right.
15. Don't Discard Your 'Blunders'.
The temptation with electronic is to examine images as you go as well as to erase those that do not function instantly. The trouble with this is that you could just be getting rid of several of the extra fascinating and also useable photos. Remember that pictures can be cropped or manipulated later on to give you some a lot more arty/abstract looking shots that can include actual rate of interest throughout cd. Pittsburgh
16. Change Your Point of view.
Get a little imaginative with your shots. While most of the photos in the long run album will most likely be relatively 'normal' or official positions– make sure you mix things up a little by taking shots from down low, up high, at large angles etc.
17. Wedding celebration Team Shots.
One thing that I've done at every wedding that I have actually photographed is effort to photograph everybody who remains in participation in the one shot. The way I've done this is to arrange for a place that I can rise high above everybody straight after the event. This might indicate obtaining tall ladder, making use of a balcony or even climbing on a roof covering. The beauty of standing up high is that you get everyone's face in it and could fit a lot of individuals in the round. The key is to be able to get everyone to the location you desire them to stand swiftly as well as to be all set to get the shot without having everyone stand around for as well lengthy. I located the best method to get every person to the place is to get the groom and bride there and also to have a couple of helpers to herd everyone in that instructions. Find out more on the best ways to take Group Photos.
18. Load Flash.
When firing outside after a ceremony or during the posed shots you'll possibly intend to maintain your flash connected to give a little fill in flash. I have the tendency to dial it back a little (a quit or more) to make sure that shots are not burnt out– but specifically in backlit or noontime shooting conditions where there can be a great deal of darkness, fill in flash is a must. Read more concerning using Fill up Flash.
19. Constant Shooting Mode.
Having the capability to fire a lot of photos fast is very convenient on a wedding day so change your cam to continuous shooting setting and also utilize it. In some cases it's the shot you take a second after the formal or posed shot when every person is relaxing that really catches the moment!
20. Expect the Unexpected.
One more item of recommendations that someone gave me on my own wedding day. 'Things will Go Wrong– However They Can be the Best Parts of the Day'. In every wedding event that I've taken part in something has the tendency to fail with the day. The best man cannot discover the ring, the rainfall puts down equally as the ceremony finishes, the bridegroom neglects to do up his fly, the blossom girl decides to sit down in the middle of the aisle or the bride cannot remember her vows … These minutes could feel a little panicky at the time– yet it's these moments that could actually make a day as well as give the bride and groom memories. Attempt to record them and also you could wind up with some fun photos that summarize the day actually well.
I still keep in mind the initial wedding celebration I photographed where the couple auto accident right into a Cable car en route to the park where we were most likely to take images. The bride remained in splits, the groom stressed out– but after we 'd all calmed down people started to see some of the amusing side of the minute and also we also took a couple of shots prior to owning on the park. They were among every person's favorites.
21. Have Fun.
Wedding events have to do with commemorating– they should be fun. The even more enjoyable you have as the photographer the extra kicked back those you are photographing will certainly be. Perhaps the most effective means to loosen up individuals up is to smile as the professional photographer (warning: I constantly get home from photographing weddings with sore jaws as well as cheeks as a result of my smiling method).

Working alone at the turn of the 20th century in Spain, Santiago Ramón y Cajal (1852-1934) ventured into science as both an artist and a pathologist, and became the first person to see a neuron. Working by gaslight, he made thin slices of brain tissue and subjected them to the same silver-nitrate chemistry he used to capture images on photographic plates.
Cajal's graceful drawings of neurons show them as separate, individual cells. He was the first to realize that the nervous system is not a network of continuous fibers, as was widely believed at the time.

It has been very hot here, hot enough for me to wear shorts and tank tops everyday, so I got my most "sophisticated" shorts and tank to create this look. I wanted to update my blog so I wore something more realistic based on the weather here.
I recently finished ready one of the best books I have ever read, Dr. Bird's Advice for Sad Poets. I feel in love with the book once I started reading it, reasons why I finish it so quickly. It was a very deep and lovely book. Sad at times and a bit funny at others. I'm looking for a new book to read something light, funny or adventurous. So any recomendations are very welcome =)
This is the hour I hide everything
behind my eyes
To see if you can see
All the trouble my brain's been brewing
Yes, I feel I am the worst and you are the best
And yet, and yet,
Nothing bad unfolds as we sit
Young and nervous,
alive and bursting,
with futures that may entwine.
Who am I?
Who am I to sabotage what may be too small
for even chaos to disassemble?- Dr. Bird's Advice for Sad Poets

My experience of toys and games these days differs from that of the other categories of kids' entertainment. I manage to keep some semblance of track of the year's output of children's books and music and movies, but with toys I'm far less clued in. So this part of my 2010 wrap will be a bit broader than the others, with entries that definitely came out last year, entries that definitely didn't, and entries I'm not even sure about. (And I'm going to get finished with last year before the end of January, I swear!)
First off is an entry that decidedly did not come out last year, but that's when we found it. Until my kids were old enough to be interested in them, I'd never quite gotten the appeal of customizable toys like Build-a-Bear and American Girl dolls. (But then, I am not a kid.) But this year, both my six-year-old and my two-year-old got robot fever, and then we stumbled over a place called RobotGalaxy. It's pretty much Build-a-Bear for machines: Kids create their own robots from various interchangeable parts, picking a head-and-torso core and various tool, shield, or weapon (yes, there are weapons, though they're expressed fairly broadly through shapes and lights) limbs. The staff helps children make their selections, gets them to give their creation a name, and then "activates" the robot in a little whistles-and-bells-laden chamber right out of Metropolis (but stripped of the sinister overtones, naturally).
The robots don't really do all that much—each arm or leg has a distinct function that's expressed via sounds and/or lights when you press its button, and each head speaks a few preprogrammed lines. There's also an online community you can connect the robot to via USB, with games and a little virtual world and such. But the price per robot (generally somewhere in the $50 to $75 range) is pretty steep for that. What I finally got about these customized-toy places, as I watched my son beam while he picked out his parts (including a female head-torso piece), is that a big part of what they're selling is the experience itself—the moments of free choice that don't present themselves too often to grade-school kids. The look on Dash's face as he went through the process was a mixture of pure delight and disbelief that this was even happening.
So while I can't really argue with anyone who says RobotGalaxy is overpriced based on the merits of the end product, I looked at the extra cost as thie price we paid for the show, as it were—a fee for Dash's glee, and our own warm feelings watching it. All those good vibes seemed to rub off on the robot herself, too—he plays with it far more than I would have expected for something with fairly limited features. (It would appear that the song-and-dance that accompanied its acquisition engaged his imagination pretty well.) Somewhat to my surprise (I can be pretty cheap), I haven't regretted the purchase, or the experience, at all.

This is an incredible piece of job from Mario Stinger, obviously the very first of an impressive series. Initially look, I believed it was merely one of those sci-fi/adventure books, offered its property revolving a mysterious underwater complex and progressed modern technology. It comes out there was much more to this tale.
The book blew up at a slow-moving beginning as the very first several chapters dealt at the same time between the discovery of the Center and the musings of the key protagonist, Steven Mitchell. By all accounts, Steven drops right into the group of an antihero: He's a black hat computer system hacker who is torn in between his self-seeking opportunistic propensities and his need to contribute to humanity and include worth to his finite presence. He's a faceless criminal, a self-exiled fugitive that was recruited along with a crowd of discontents, experts, and military workers to spearhead an exploration of a large, technologically progressed center discovered deep within the Norwegian Sea.
Like a lot of ""initial books"" that I have checked out for triumvirates, I seemed like Destined for Oblivion: As Nature Intended is a ""set up"" publication. Typically, set up books either spend way too much time in setting their story threads and wind up being an uneven secure that cannot base on its own, or it's so full that it basically removes the need for me to read through the subsequent guides in the collection.
This publication, nonetheless, is different. Regardless of the sci-fi attributes of its general story, it handles to dive in to the bowels of the human mind and deal with subjects that consist of morality, principles, faith, partiality, human piggishness, and political intrigue. The story strings are well placed and unexpectedly thought-provoking, and though some end up as cliffhangers, they leave an air of exhilaration that in fact makes me interested as to just what is going to happen in the follow up.
Needless to point out, I do want to know more regarding just what is going on, what has actually happened in the past, and just what is going to take place following. It's a spectacular means to begin a triumvirate; there's this sense of closure and yet there are so a lot of possibilities as to just what may potentially take place in the upcoming book– and I desire to follow it for as lengthy as I can.

Pop Quiz : Who were the first Islamic Terrorists? A) Al Qaeda B) The Muslim Brotherhood C) Hamas D) Hezbollah E) The PLO or F) The Assassins (Read on to find out the answer!)
Today, the scourge of Islamic terrorism is rampant. We've recently witnessed terrorist acts in Kenya, Boston, Benghazi, Pakistan, Russia, London, Iraq and the list goes on. What have we done thus far to solve this problem? Our strategies to date have centered around military action. While we've gained some victories through these methods, it's been more "Whack-a-mole" than anything else. Islamic Terrorism is not going away because these solutions are fundamentally incomplete. The reason for this is that we misunderstand the full nature of the problem. It's not solely a military problem; it's also an ideological one.
So, how do we find the right solution? If we look back through the annals of history, we find that this is not the first time Islamic Terrorism has reared its ugly head. A thorough examination of the circumstances surrounding the rise and fall of similar movements can give us some ideas about how to defeat today's menace. This article will be Part 1 of 2. In this first part, I will briefly discuss the nature of the Assassins and set the stage for part 2, where we can apply these lessons to today's Islamic Terrorists.
What we are seeing now is similar to what was happening during the time of the Crusades, when the world's first Islamic terrorists came to be known in the West as the "Assassins," (answer F, for those of you still reading!) The Assassins were part of a sect of Shi'ite Muslims called the Nizari, who gained local power and renown in parts of modern Iran and Syria. As Shi'ite Muslims, the Assassins struck fear in the hearts of the Sunni Muslim establishment with their public and often spectacular assassinations of Sunni leaders using only a dagger. The Assassins would disguise themselves as loyal followers of their target and patiently work for months to infiltrate the inner circle of the enemy leader. When an opportunity appeared, they would rush upon their victim and stab them to death. Having completed their grisly task, they would remain in place, awaiting certain death at the hands of the bodyguard. But the Sunnis were not their only victims. Christian leaders (including the King of Jerusalem, Conrad of Montferrat) and Shi'ite leaders who publicly disagreed with the Assassins often became targets for assassination.
The meaning of the term, assassin, derives from these men. Etymologically, the term, assassin, is a corruption of the Arabic term for hashish. As in, the people who knew these Nizari believed they must have been drugged or were the kind of lowlife riff raff who would do drugs in order to perpetrate such violent crimes. There seemed to be no other way to explain why someone would have such blind devotion and submit to such stunning self-destruction as these men.
However, in reality these young men were not drugged, nor were they low-life riff-raff. Much like many of today's Islamic Terrorists, they were in some cases wealthy and highly educated –particularly the leadership. Instead of drugs, what drove them was ideology. They never saw it as murder. Rather they thought they were doing a service to God by ridding the world of unrighteous rulers. Their goal was to replace the illegitimate ruler with their Imam as the caliph, or head of all Islam. From there, a "true" version of Islam could be lived and propagated throughout the Islamic Empire instead of the "false" one that was currently being promoted.
Muslims do not have a separation of Church and State. To them, the Muslim state is established and maintained by God. Its head, the caliph, is responsible for upholding Islam and enabling its citizens to be good Muslims. There is no distinction between the secular, political and religious. Thus, any dispute expresses itself in all three dimensions. Islamic tradition gives some support to justifiable revolt. When, in the opinion of the believer, the leadership strays into sinful behavior, the requirement for obedience ends. There are, however, no means of testing the righteousness of commands or peacefully objecting to the sinful order. The only real option is rebellion and the most expeditious form of rebellion is assassination. Thus, the Nizari, while out on a limb, were not completely unjustified in their actions according to their religion.
Part of the attraction of the Assassins was that they offered something for everyone. Assassin leadership provided a place where people could try to "make the world a better place", to fight for their religious convictions, to gain some dignity and meaning for their drab and bitter lives, and above all, to provide the shortcut to eternal life in the sensual Islamic Paradise.
Usually, men were brought in at a young and impressionable age, isolated from the world and carefully indoctrinated. Members saw themselves as divinely guided, in possession of secret knowledge, and capable of attaining hidden powers. The Assassin leadership expertly channeled the energy of these young men into the goal of overthrowing the established regime. Once indoctrinated, these men would not think twice about giving their life to further the Assassin cause. Death was no longer something to be avoided, but instead something sought after and welcomed.
Ultimately, the Assassins were brought down because the greater population grew tired of living in fear and massacred the Nizari in large numbers. The political and religious leadership spoke openly against them, limiting their popularity. Additionally, the Mongols swept through Iran and into parts of Syria, where they mercilessly destroyed the infrastructure the Assassins relied upon. From the South, the Mamluks rose out of Egypt and wiped out the last of the Crusaders and Assassins on their way to challenge the Mongols. Thus, the limitation of and eventual loss of their logistical base of support, destruction of their infrastructure, and their inability to sell their ideology to a wider group of people limited their expansion and ultimately led to their collapse.

Atheneum Books, 2011
$15.99, ages 3-7, 40 pages.
Owly wants butterflies so badly he can barely stand it. But nothing seems to lure them into his garden.
Then one day he meets two plump green bugs that make him forget that having friends with fancy wings was ever important to him.
Well, almost forget -- that is, until the rainy season passes and a couple of leathery pouches in his garden do the "shaky shake."
Owly, the big-eyed owl from Runton's Owly graphic novel series, makes his full-color debut in this super-sweet picture book that shows that it's not what's on the outside that counts in friendship.
As with the Owly comics, the story is told through symbols and expressions, and is virtually wordless, yet it reads as vividly as any word-based picture book thanks to clever pictographs that appear above characters' heads.
Instead of using words in speech bubbles, Rundin puts pictures of whatever Owly or another character is thinking about, whether it's butterflies or a flower, then pairs it with a punctuation mark or a well-known pictorial sign to explain how he feels about it.
The pictures might be followed by a question mark or exclamation mark, compared to something else with an equal sign or unequal sign, connected to something outside the bubble with an arrow or put inside a crossed-out circle to say it is no more.
Facial expressions, especially those of Owly's, then firm up the emotions behind each thought.
Owly's eyes look like huge billiard balls and his eyelids fit them like gloves. When he's happy his eyes open to big white circles or his pupils form slits of laughter, and when he's sad his eyelids slip to half-mast and curve down like frowns.
When readers first meet Owly, his back is to them and though they can't see his face, they know he's perplexed.
He stands behind three potted seedlings that are too young to flower, looking at a flock of monarch butterflies fly away.
On his head sits a peanut-shaped friend, Wormy, who (we soon discover) is his bunk mate and confidante, and shares his every expression.
On his head sits a peanut-shaped friend, Wormy, who (we soon discover) is his bunk mate and confidante, and shares his every expression.
Above Owly, a speech bubble shows three of the orange and black butterflies and a red arrow pointing toward the distant flock, along with a big, fat question mark. He wonders why the butterflies don't stay and longs for them to return.
For a moment but no more, Owly is chapfallen. In another speech bubble, he pictures the same three butterflies laughing at the absurdity of his flowerless plants, as readers watch Owly's eyelids slip down into mournful ovals.
But Owly is not one to dwell on what he doesn't have and he quickly comes up with a solution: by the next vignette, his eyes are bright, full circles and he's picturing Mrs. Racoon's Nursery adrift in blooming plants.
He knows just what he needs: a plant with nectar. So he carefully selects a variety with orange-red flowers clustered at its tips (which gardeners will instantly recognize as butterfly weed), then plants it in the soil below his and Wormy's tree.
The next day seems promising but the sky is still; not one butterfly drifts by his flower. And again Owly is disheartened.
Yet just as quickly as before, he snaps out of his doldrums as readers see a bright compact fluorescent light bulb turn on in his speech bubble to signify a plan popping into his head:
They will make welcome signs for the butterflies that surround them in hearts and flowers to suggest just how much they'll like it there.
Yet just as quickly as before, he snaps out of his doldrums as readers see a bright compact fluorescent light bulb turn on in his speech bubble to signify a plan popping into his head:
They will make welcome signs for the butterflies that surround them in hearts and flowers to suggest just how much they'll like it there.
So, Owly and Wormy set to work painting little wooden signs to put around the new plant, but as they tap the last sign into the ground, they notice the plant is starting to look sick. Every other leaf has a bite taken out of it.
Just then, two happy green bugs pop out of the leaves, their faces beaming hello, an exclamation mark above their speech bubbles adding to their hearty greeting, as they merrily chew up a mouthful of leaf.
At first, Owly and Wormy think the bugs are pests, but when the bugs explain that the flower = their home, and Owly and Wormy see worry in their soggy, sad eyes, they're faces soften.
Owly consults Wormy, forever on his head, about what they should do, and Wormy's once-angry brow splits into two commiserating curves.
Owly consults Wormy, forever on his head, about what they should do, and Wormy's once-angry brow splits into two commiserating curves.
Wormy looks down into Owly's eyes and in his speech bubble shows two bugs = smiley face, and Owly instantly agrees, the flower truly does = their home; the bugs must stay.
Soon Owly, Wormy and the two green bugs are the best of pals, and Owly seems to have forgotten all about wanting butterflies. But as one spring day slips into the next, dark clouds begin to crawl across the sky.
April is arriving and with it rain and a stiff wind, and though Owly and Wormy invite the bugs to take shelter in their tree, the bugs' speech bubbles show that their time has run out and they must pack their bags and go.
For friends as fine as these, Owly and Wormy agree that only a royal send-off will do, so they paint a big banner of farewell and make a card with a big red heart, and go to say goodbye.
But when Owly flies down from the tree with Wormy, the bugs are nowhere to be found -- and it hits Owly and Wormy: They've already left.
Tears pool below Owly and Wormy's eyes and as each day passes without their friends, they X out another day on the calendar. Their speech bubbles show them drifting between hope and sadness until one night Owly sits up in bed with another bright fluorescent bulb above his head.
He will paint signs to welcome the bugs back; that way, the bugs will know just how much they're wanted.
That night, instead of butterflies, Owly paints pictures of his bug friends with lots of tiny hearts, and the next morning he and Wormy head off to the flower to tap them into the ground.
But just as they're about to wrap up, Wormy gasps. An exclamation point appears in his speech bubble and sweat squirts off his brow.
He's spotted two strange pouches hanging off the undersides of the plant's leaves.
The two stare at the pouches with brows arched and Owly holds his wing tips to his beak as if to catch his breath. The pouches are moving ("Shaky Shake") and something is squeezing out of the bottoms!
A delight to the last, joyful page, this first full-color tale of Owly and Wormy is sure to be the first of many.
Not only are the graphics adorable, expressive and easy to read, but the characters, especially Owly, model a can-do attitude that's so healthy for readers to see.
Owly never dwells on what he doesn't have; he allows himself a brief moment of sadness, then jumps back into life and tries to solve whatever problem he's faced with.

Staples' Hannah DeBalsi named Hearst Connecticut Media Girls Track MVP
One sign of athletic greatness is when all activity stops so everyone in attendance can witness something unique.
Staples High School junior Hannah DeBalsi is such a talent. When DeBalsi runs in the 1,600-, 3,200-meter or two-mile events, all eyes are on her.
Her style on the track is as graceful as a deer, her strides eating up real estate effortlessly as she pulls farther and farther away from most of the runners she faces.
And because her resume of success grows and grows, DeBalsi has been named Hearst Connecticut Media's 2015 Girls Outdoor Track MVP.
"It was another year of experience. Another year of tenacity. A year where I had improved strength as a runner," DeBalsi said. "I fought through some injuries along the way. But I didn't allow any obstacle to stop me."
In outdoor track, success is measured in the postseason.
DeBalsi was the FCIAC champion in the 1600 (5:04.71) and the 3200 (10:41.11).
At the Class LL championship, DeBalsi won the 1600 (4:53.51) for the third straight year and lapped the field while capturing the 3200 (10:31.63).
At the State Open, DeBalsi was runnerup in the 1600 (4:49.67) and won the 3200 (10:28.76).
Her June trip to the New England Championships in Maine resulted in a 3200 (10:35.03) title.
DeBalsi closed out her spring by flying to Seattle and taking third place in the two-mile run (10:03.24) at the Brooks Invitational while running a 4:55 closing mile.
"I used to worry when I first began competing in big races," DeBalsi said. "But now with more than two years worth of experience in these types of races I know I can handle the environment and the challenges."
Staples girls track coach Jesse McCray has had the best view of DeBalsi's rise to national prominence.
"It's Hannah's dedication to her craft that has impressed me the most," McCray said. "Hannah doesn't take her talent for granted. Her hard work is what makes her so special. She does whatever is needed to succeed.
"Hannah doesn't have a big ego. She fits in very well with her teammates," McCray continued. "She has a great sense of humor. But she is very humble about her running accomplishments. She is a pleasure to coach."

A comprehensive estate plan is a foundation that your financial future is built upon. It should not be some cookie cutter piece of paper, but rather a carefully crafted document that is built upon sound advice from an experienced attorney. Hastily drafted plans often lead to disputes among heirs and costly litigation. Here are just a few examples:
Choosing the Wrong Trustee: Having all of your children serve as the successor trustees to avoid hurting anyone's feelings sounds like a good idea, but if decisions require unanimous consent then problems can arise, particularly if one child is living in a house owned by the trust. Sometimes choosing the oldest child to be the trustee is also a mistake.
A comprehensive estate plan starts with a revocable trust. Placing assets into a trust avoids the expense and delay of Probate. A $1,000,000 estate will cost as much as $50,000 to Probate and can take well over a year before the assets are distributed. To administer a trust with the same assets will cost as little as $2,500 to administer and assets can be distributed much sooner.
In addition to the trust it is important to have a Health Care Directive so that your final wishes are honored if a decision has to be made about continuing care and what measures you want taken if you are too ill to express your wishes to your doctors. It is also important to have a general power of attorney that becomes effective if you ever become incapacitated. This will allow your agent to sign important papers for you.
Lastly, some families need to plan to protect assets where one or both spouses have chronic debilitating conditions, such as Alzheimer's and will require expensive long term care. To qualify for assistance with such care requires spending down all non-exempt assets and can result in an expensive Medi-Cal lien against the remaining assets. Certain types of irrevocable trusts should be considered in these situations and that is where the expertise of Aaron Feldman can help.

My patient's daughter had been up all night in the ED with her mother and by now it was just after noon. She was very tired. Nonetheless, I needed to find her to ask an important question.
I got to the waiting room and found approximately 10 family members, but not the daughter. I asked where she was.
"We aren't really sure."
I thought this was a strange response. Not only was she a nurse, but the person I wanted to speak with knew the patient best out of everyone there. She just wasn't the kind of person who took off without telling anyone where she was going.
"Ok… ?" Then I just stared at them all, because sometimes that will elicit more of a response. People don't like being stared at blankly.
"The doctor told us that he took her somewhere to rest, but he said that we had to leave her alone, and he wouldn't tell us where he took her."
Hearing "we think she ran off to join the circus" would have been only slightly more surprising.
I went back to the nurse's station and related my story to some other nurses working with me that day. We were all quite puzzled and just a tiny bit amused. As it happened, the doctor in question showed up at the desk and I told him that I had something important to discuss with the patient's daughter and would he mind, please, letting me know where he stashed her?
He said he would not do that. He said she was tired and stressed by her mother's condition and needed rest.
Well, yeah, but I really needed to know if the patient had had the flu shot this season, lest I be reprimanded over not providing a complete admission record. (Not really, but I did need to know something rather important.)
He said she'd be there in a little while. About half an hour later she appeared in her mother's room.
Her family thanked me profusely for "finding her."
I bet that night shift would like to know where that secret sleeping area is!
Wow! That Doc sounds like one very caring guy! Not! Weird, Weird, Weird!
[...] – this is too funny! Gina at Code Blog recalls a tale of medicine and kidnapping in The Kidnapped Napper. Wish I had someone to kidnap me like [...]
Good writing, you! Your prose rocks! Good job! You're scaring the shit outta me (grad nurse – three months into looking for his first nursing job…)
Be well…
Oh! I better search for that secret sleeping area too(kidding)…or else kidnap the doctor…lol
Somewhat odd, yes, but I can see the need for family members to rest, esp. if they are the glue holding things together. Even more bizarre: the physician's response. What, you're three years-old and can't be trusted with sensitive information?
I agree, it sounds a little creepy to me. Who takes a kid to a secret sleepping area? LOL
I didn't realize that staring at people was an effective interrogation method. Thanks for the information
Sarah – it wasn't a kid, it was a grown woman!
You're welcome. :)
hahaha, is that really a doctor?
But a thumb -up for you.
"I didn't realize that staring at people was an effective interrogation method. Thanks for the information"
Haha, me too, I mean I guess reading it made me realize that in certain situations, that blank stare can get across the message of "Seriously? You don't know?" haha thanks.
The patient just needed a real rest.. Away from stress, stimuli, and interview..
Nice Blog..
Ok, that's a pretty odd thing to have happen. It almost boarders on creepy lol!
I am agreeing with the creepy comments. Since the daughter was a nurse, maybe they knew each other clinically. WINK! WINK!

A little bit dark + a little bit S&M + a little bit WTF make for one really enticing shoot. And at 54, I really have to say that Bruce definitely qualifies as a 'looker' right alongside that Alexander McQueen leather and sterling silver harness and THOSE Nina Ricci boots.

The first one here is probably my favourite one ~ any combination of purple and lime green will do it for me every time!!
This next purple and silver triangular one is good to go :^)
The stripey one has a channel cut around it and is waiting to be wired up. This is a bit different to most of my pieces in that it is on a transparent background ~ it's a very cool effect!!
These next two are me revisiting a previous design idea. Instead of using silver like I did last time I have used brass and then antiqued it. It's a lovely soft colour with a really nice sheen to it ~ I'm quite liking using this wire all though it is a lot harder to work with than silver or copper.. They're not quite finished yet ~ they need to be really well polished. I'm hoping to sit in the sunshine some tomorrow and get them done.
It looks it will be another early night for me ~ I can barely stay awake.
So goodnight all ~ hope you are having a great weekend!!

Immobilized lipase mediated tranesterification process for new feed stock Simarouba glauca oil for biodiesel production has been developed by utilizing the greener aspects of immobilized biocatalyst in n-hexane solvent system. The presence of solvent system helps to overcome the negative effects of methanol and glycerol, the end product. Effect of methanol to oil ratio, reaction time, methanol to hexane ratio, reaction temperature, agitation speed and immobilized lipase on final molar conversion were investigated.
A maximum yield of 91.5 % fatty acid methyl esters with a 62.23 % molar conversion with respect to methyl oleate has been achieved with oil: methanol molar ratio of 1:1, using 10 U of immobilized lipase/g of oil and with methanol to oil ratio of 1:0.6 in a reaction time of 36 h at 34 °C and 200 rpm. Immobilized lipase has been reused successfully up to 6 recycles with retaining relative activity of more than 95 %.
Lipase mediated tranesterification of new feedstock Simarouba glauca oil for biodiesel production has been successfully carried out under n-hexane solvent system. Utilization of immobilized lipase, which facilitates reuse helps considerably for the economy of the process. The introduced new feedstock with a green tinge seems to be a very promising to the biofuel sector for biodiesel production through sustainable approach.

Escalating oil prices and depletion of oil reserves necessitate better alternatives of energy from fossil fuels. With the rise in concern for pollution caused by fossil fuels such as petroleum, coal and natural gas, alternative fuels and renewable sources of energy such as biodiesel are coming in vogue [1]. Renewable fuels such as biodiesel is one of the potential contributors for solving the energy problem. Biodiesel is a biodegradable, non-toxic, and a low air pollutant emitting fuel than the petroleum diesel [2]. Biodiesel, which consists of fatty acid esters derived from oils of plant origin such as pongamia, mahwa, waste oils. Simarouba glauca (simaroubaceae) is an oil yielding tree native to South and Central American countries such as Costa Rica, El Salvador and brought to India by National Bureau of Plant Genetic Resources (NBPGR) and cultivating mainly in sub-humid climate of Orissa and semi arid, dry, saline land areas of other Indian states like Gujarat, Maharashtra, Tamilnadu, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh. The oil produced by each Simarouba tree accounts per 1–2 t oil per year grown under wide range of temperatures (10–45 °C) [3]. Owing to its 50–65 % oil content from seed part along with good amount of unsaturated fatty acid content (59–65 %, oleic acid) we have made an attempt to transesterify this Simarouba oil to biodiesel through biological green approach of immobilized lipase mediated transesterification [4]. It has a iodine value (IV) of 50–54 % and saponification value of 191 with oleic acid as a predominant fatty acid [5]. IV provides a measure of unsaturated fatty acid content and helpful in determination of viscosity and cloud point. The recent research finding indicates that the IV has no role in prediction of oxidative stability (as it does not take into account the positions of the double bonds available for oxidation) [6]. Having low IV values of Simarouba oil and that also in the range of standard specifications [EN14214 (≤120) and DIN 51606 (≤115))] corresponds for possible high cetane number, reduced NOx emissions and degradation potential of formed fatty acid methyl esters (FAME's) seems to be a better source for biodiesel through lipase mediated transesterification [7]. The usage of plant based oils clogs diesel engines due to their high viscosity. Among the existing methods (physical, chemical and biological), immobilized lipase mediated methanolysis of plant oils through transesterification has proven the most significant step towards making FAME's (biodiesel) due to the low cost of methanol, ecofriendly reaction conditions and the chemo-, regio- and enantiospecific nature of lipase [8]. Immobilized lipase mediated methanolysis involves lyses of plant oils into methyl esters and glycerol in presence of immobilized lipases [9].
Lipase-catalyzed transesterification of oils to FAME's gives a very high-purity product that can be easily separated from glycerol. The immobilized lipase can also be reused for multiple reactions and able to tolerate enzyme inhibitory effect of methanol and glycerol [10]. In particular, the glycerol can be easily removed without any complex process, while the free fatty acids contained in waste oils and fats can be completely converted to alkyl esters [11]. Transesterification variables such as methanol to oil ratio, reaction time, amount of solvent, temperature, addition of water, agitation, amount of immobilized enzyme are the critical factors affecting the FAME´s yield [12]. The role of transesterification variables such as molar ratio of alcohol, temperature, type of catalyst on the final yield of transesrification has been reported in case of different plant based oils [13]. Several researchers reported the efficacy of covalently immobilized lipases in transesterification of different plant based oils and different aspects of the processes have been tested time and again. In another instance, free and covalently bound lipases were used for the alcoholysis of salicornia oil and obtained a methyl ester yield of 45 % and 55 % after 12 h with free and immobilized lipases respectively [14]. Dossat et al., 2002 [15] have studied the enzyme catalyzed transesterification of sunflower oil using immobilized Lipozyme. The optimal yield, as determined by methyl esters was 60 % with respective to oleic acid. In another study, Du et al., 2004 [16] employed Novozyme 435 for the transesterification of crude soyabean oil and achieved a methyl ester yield of 94 % in 120 h.
Owing to its high content of oleic acid, in our present study Simarouba glauca oil have been evaluated first time for its feasibility as a biodiesel through immobilized lipase catalyzed transesterification reaction using n-hexane as a solvent. Based on the previous studies documentation towards high cost for utilization of pure lipase and its immobilization, in the present attempt a fungal lipase produced through cost effective solid state fermentation has been utilized and has been covalently immobilized on celite for its efficient utilization in the transesterification reaction.
Results and discussion
Effect of methanol to oil ratio on transesterification
Li et al., 2006 [19] also reported the negative effect of higher methanol to oil molar ratio on methyl esters conversion. They achieved 95 % yield of methyl esters of rape seed oil with methanol/oil molar ratio of 4:1 in 12 h. In another study by Royon et al., 2007 [20], a maximum yield of 97 % methyl esters was achieved in transesterification of cottonseed oil using 13.5 % methanol and 54 % oil in 24 h at 50 °C. The effect of methanol to oil ratio on the yield of methyl esters was reported by several researchers including immobilized lipase mediated methanolysis of soybean oil [21, 22], jatropha oil [23] and canola oil [24]. In case of immobilized C. antarctica lipase mediated tranesterification of vegetable oil, a maximum conversion (95 %) was achieved with a methanol/oil molar ratio of 3:1 [25].

Microorganism and chemicals
A well known lipolytic fungal strain Rhizopus oryzae 3562 was isolated from the local soil of IIT Kharagpur and maintained on PDA (Potato Dextrose Agar) medium. p-nitrophenyl pamitate (p-NPP), Methyl oleate standard were purchased from Sigma (USA). All chemicals used were of AR grade and were procured from Merck, Qualigens and Himedia, India.
Production, immobilization of lipase
Lipase was produced using wheat bran as a substrate through solid state fermentation as mentioned in our previous work [42]. Lipase immobilized on activated celite (50 U/g, data was not shown) through covalent immobilization was utilized for the present tranesterification reaction.
Lipase assay and protein determination
Lipase assay was done spectrophotometrically using p-NPP as the substrate. One unit (U) of enzyme is defined as the amount of enzyme that liberates one micromole of p-nitrophenol per minute under the assay conditions. Total protein was estimated using bovine serum albumin (BSA) as standard as described by Lowry et al. 1951 [43].
Lipase mediated synthesis FAME's
Simarouba glauca oil, methanol and solvent were taken in different ratios (oil to methanol molar ratios of 1:1–1:10 and methanol to solvent ratio's of 1:2 –1:10 v/v) in a screw-capped vial. Immobilized lipase (20–100 U) was added to the reaction mixture and incubated at different temperatures (25–45 °C) and shaking rates (100–300 rpm). The progress of reaction was monitored by withdrawing aliquots (100 μl) at various time intervals (12–96 h). Samples taken from the reaction mixture at specified times were centrifuged at 1747 g for 10 min to remove the immobilized enzyme. They were then diluted with n-hexane (10 times) and analyzed by gas chromatography.
GC analysis
Methyl esters were analyzed by using Agilent 6820 Gas Chromatograph with a flame-ionization detector (USA). The capillary column (length 30 m, internal diameter 0.25 mm) with nitrogen as the carrier gas at a constant pressure of 4 kg cm2 was used. Column oven temperature was programmed from 150 to 250 °C (at 10 °C min-1) with injector and detector temperatures at 240 and 250 °C, respectively. The % molar conversion of products was identified by comparing the peak area of standard methyl oleate at the particular retention time.
Methanolysis of Simarouba oil with lipase immobilized covalently on celite to yield FAME's (biodiesel) through transesterification has been investigated. The effect of transesterification variables such as methanol to oil ratio, reaction time, volume of solvent, reaction temperature, initial addition of water, agitation speed and quantity of immobilized lipase on molar conversion (%) was monitored. A maximum molar conversion of 62.23 % with respect to methyl oleate (with 91.5 % yield) was obtained after a reaction time of 36 h at 34 °C in the presence o 10 U immobilized lipase using methanol to oil ratio of 1:1 and solvent to oil ratio of 1:0.6. The FAME's production was not influenced by the addition of water up to 20 % (v/v). The immobilized lipase was reusable for six cycles with retaining the relative activity of more than 95 %.

Chandigarh: Congress leader Amarinder Singh on Saturday blamed Chief Minister Prakash Singh Badal for the alleged denial of reservation benefits to Jats in Punjab.
"The onus about the denial of reservation to Jats in Punjab squarely lies on Badal as he was sitting over the decision for reasons best known to him," he said.
Talking to a delegation of Jat representatives and newly appointed officials of All India Jat Maha Sabha, who had come to meet him here, Amarinder, who is president of the Sabha, agreed with them that Punjab was the only state which was withholding benefits to the poor and deserving Jat population, of both the Sikh and Hindu communities.
The leader said the decision to provide reservation to Jats was taken by the previous Congress-led UPA government and the BJP-led NDA government has also upheld it.
Stating that the state government has to write to the Centre to pass on the benefits of reservation to the people, he remarked that Badal was not prepared to do even this much.
The former chief minister also clarified that reservation is only for the poor and deserving Jats and not the rich ones.
"Let me reiterate and clarify once again that the reservation benefits are not for people like me or Badal, but the ordinary Jats who cannot make both ends meet," he said.
Stressing that unemployment was on the rise in Punjab, Amarinder asked why Badal was sitting over the decision as it could help poor Jat students get various jobs and admission to educational institutions under the OBC category.

Hello all,
I always enjoy working with Graham! We have collaborated a lot with Graham in the past... Our erotic stories have been awesome to work on but also very tiring! So after the last glamour bikini shoot we did I accepted to do to simple normal sex shoot with Graham! It was a lot of fun to shoot and it was hard to choose only a few pics to illustrate it.... but here they are! Enjoy them!

That's what he has been telling me for weeks. Even though I have figured it out, it still trips me up a bit when he says it. So cute, though.
So, Brevin has a loose tooth, and I am freaking out about it. I keep telling him to leave it alone or he wont be able to eat corn on the cob (his absolute favorite food in the world). I am so not ready for the crazy monster teeth to start appearing. Oh, come one, you all know what I am talking about. I seriously have issues with my little boys growing up. I had not idea it would be this hard...complete torment.
As I have mentioned before Brevin is WAY into spelling. I asked him to make the grocery list for me the other day and it included milc, fliflops, & jus. Now as adorable as it is, how do I go about telling him that those words aren't spelled right. Not only to I not want to crush his little ego, but how in the world to I explain when to use a k and when to use a c, when I don't even know the answer myself.--so complicated.
Garden update. If anyone has Martha's direct line I could sure use it. I am in a bit of a pickle. My little garden is completley outgrown it's container, and for anyone else noticing that it is STILL snowing in flipping April I don't think I am going to be able to plant them anytime soon. So

Science and Consciousness
The Anomaly of
The one thing we know for sure is that we are experiencing beings. Yet the one thing that science cannot explain is the fact that we are conscious. Do we need a new paradigm?
Are All Creatures
We assume that other animals are conscious (whatever scientists might say): why else would we give them anesthetics to make them unconscious? But how far down does consciousness go?
Is Reality
All in the Mind?
Real as it my seem, our sensory experience is but the brain's reconstruction of the physical world. Moreover, modern physics reveals the world "out there" is very different from our experience.
The Evolution of
Awareness itself does not change. But what we are aware has evolved. With human beings a new level of awareness has emerged—self-awareness. What lies behind this self? And what is next for the evolution of consciousness?
