My wonderful husband surprised me with this beauty for my birthday this year, I was SO excited...and SO surprised!! (He tries, but usually isn't very good at surprises) But he definitely got it right this year!
This wonderful machine has been sitting in the box for a month now. For one reason or another I have been too intimidated to actually get it out and use it. But my Mother in Law stopped by the other day and made me open it and showed me how it works. So i finally buckled down, got out the manual, figured out how to thread it, and crossed my fingers that it would work the first time....and it DID!!
And i LOVE it!!!
I loved it so much that i decided to whip up this bag for the portable DVD player we got for Christmas. I used THIS tutorial for a double screen DVD player tote, and just slightly tweaked it to my liking!
It was just a fluke that i had fabric very similar to the one she used in her tutorial, but i love the way it turned out!
There are a two big pockets in it to separate the two screens so they don't get scratched. And i added a big pocket for DVD's and even made some pockets for DVD's that don't have a case. You can't really see it but there is a velcro pocket in there too for all the cords and plug ins and whatnot.
Here it is all filled up and ready to go, with Nemo and Dora in tow.
TA DA!!! I am thinking I will make a little diaper bag for Chloe to put all of her doll stuff in that she loves to carry around, using the same tutorial.
It wasn't very hard, ok it was kind of hard but only because i had a screaming toddler holding onto my leg the whole time! (she is teething) So i expect everyone to go and make one for themselves!! you can come over and use my serger if you want!! ;)

A scheme of trafficking Ugandan women to Asia has attracted the attention of activists who say Uganda's government is not doing enough to protect vulnerable girls from sexual exploitation.
A report released last week said that more than 600 Ugandan girls are currently trapped in Malaysian prostitution rings.
The human traffickers take advantage of lax immigration laws between Uganda and Malaysia, where Ugandans do not need a tourist visa. Another contributing factor is poor enforcement of a law against human trafficking passed in 2009.
"It is very serious," said Hajah Noraihan, the Uganda's honorary consul to Malaysia. "I am told every day ten girls are brought into Malaysia by unscrupulous pimps."
She said there are reports of pimps even taking children to Malaysia.
Noraihan explained there are about six hundred Ugandan women in Malaysia, including 57 who are either in detention or jail.
The Ugandan diplomat said a bilateral arrangement between Uganda and Malaysia where Ugandans do not need visas has made it very easy for the traffickers to take women to Malaysia without raising suspicion.
"But of course, after the latest scenario, the Malaysian authorities are tightening the process. They are even doing raids [to arrest the suspected culprits]," she said.
In October 2011, Malaysian police busted a sex slave ring and rescued 21 Ugandan women forced into prostitution. Initial investigations showed the women were promised jobs as maids in homes and hotels with a salary of $1,000 a month. Instead, they were forced to become "sex slaves" to pay off travel fees and other costs totaling $7,000.
Authorities say nearly all of the prostituted girls have college degrees but have failed to find jobs in Uganda, where unemployment is high.
Noraihan said the solution should start in Uganda.
"A concerted effort should be made to sensitize the public," she stressed. "Tell your brother, or sister, or anybody from your family who is going to travel for work. Check first whether it is authentic or not."
She added, "It should be stopped here, in Uganda, at the source. Because if we stop the supply, the demand will also dwindle."

[Feel free to view & download the slides here too: bit.ly/digtools_ped]
Welcome to the University at Buffalo, Singapore Institute of Management workshop on Digital Tools and Pedagogy. An hour doesn't feel like enough to dig into both technology and how we teach, but we're going to give it a go. Ideally this will be just the start of a collective, collaborative conversation about how we integrate our teaching concerns and practices with spiffy, useful, exciting digital tools. Here's what we're up to today:
- Introduction of Topic
- Goals for the Workshop
- Definitions: Pedagogy & Digital Tools
- Thinking Critically & Enthusiastically about Digital Tools
- Individual Reflection
- What makes us enthusiastic about digital tools?
- What makes us hesitant about using digital tools?
- Networking Our Knowledge
- Padlet – on the web or via the app using this QR code:
Additional Resources
Digital Tools I've Used/Can Teach/Have Heard Of
I've used Twitter for two semesters of my course and the platform is a major part of my dissertation research. I'm pretty comfortable discussing the uses and challenges of Twitter in the classroom. It's less daunting than you might think, but does take some patience and preparation.
In addition, this Teaching with Twitter online course is how I got started, but there are lots of other resources out there.
The course has a fee ($400), but there are generous discounts for students & contingent/adjunct faculty (I think I paid $150 for the 6-week course)
Padlet (online corkboard; app or web-based)
Google Slides, Forms, Docs, and Sheets
Slides has an option for students to submit questions via a link, which could be helpful for participation
I've used Forms for long surveys, quizzes, and quick questions during class
My classes used Docs for submitting assignments – I can comment and they can write back in real time if they choose
I use Sheets for grading and share student grades via a web app (courtesy of this nifty tutorial)
Keynote slides
Apple only, alas, but very attractive layouts
I supplement with Toolbox for Keynote; paid, but worth it, I think
Bit.ly (useful for tracking how many students/participants have clicked a link)
Squarespace (blogging platform)
WordPress (blogging platform; self-hosted and free versions)
Zotero (research organization program)
Zotero has a little bit of a learning curve, but is a flexible and customizable way to compile references, articles, webpages, and notes for a research project.
Zotero databases are sharable, which means users can collaborate with other researchers – definitely useful for faculty or students.
Evernote (note-taking app)
Socrative (clicker app)
Today's Meet (backchannel/forum/questions app, web-based)
Hypothes.is (web annotation, good for collective reading)
Learning/content management system
More flexible and inviting than UB Learns, I think.
Also free! Also open-source code, for any coders among us.
Data visualization tool
Sometimes called the "gateway drug" to data visualization 🙂
For Thinking Critically About Technology & Pedagogy
"There's no good app for teaching" (Laura Moorhead, 2014, TED article)
"Is it okay to be a Luddite?" (Jesse Stommel and Sean Michael Morris, 2014, Digital Pedagogy Lab)
"Are apps becoming the new worksheet?" (Lee Skallerup Bessette, 2017, Digital Pedagogy Lab)
"From Knowledgable to Knowledge-able" (Michael Wesch, 2010, TEDxKC talk)
- Wesch's YouTube videos are also worth a view: Web 2.0: The Machine is Us/ing Us, A Vision of Students Today, and The Sleeper
"The Digital Era: 50 Years of Technology" (Ben Myers and Erica Lusk, 2016, Chronicle of Higher Education, access available through UB Libraries)
Agile Learning (Blog by Derek Bruff; generally useful and inspirational stuff)
HASTAC (pronounced "hay-stack"; Humanities, Arts, Science, and Technology Alliance and Collaboratory)
Creative Uses for Digital Tools in the Classroom
Professors Assign Students to Post to BuzzFeed. You'll Never Believe What Happens Next. (Gabriel Sandoval, 2016, The Chronicle of Higher Education)
Twessays and Composition in the Digital Age (Donna M. Alexander, 2017, Digital Pedagogy Lab)
Lying About the Past (T. Mills Kelly; this prof and his students "hoaxed" Wikipedia as a class project)
The Pedagogy Project (from HASTAC)
Business Strategy Game (used and recommended by a UB-SIM instructor, Paul McAfee)
Practical Advice/Resources
Ed Tech 4 Beginners (Neil Jarrett – practical stuff like apps and tools + some ideas for assignments/activities)
Teacher Tech (Alice Keeler – especially good for Google Apps)
This Week in Web 2.0 (Larry Ferlazzo – an ongoing series of recommendations for websites, apps, and cool things on the internet)
25 Awesome Apps for Teachers, Recommended by Teachers (TED-Ed blog, 2015 tho…)

I had been divorced for a couple of months now and started missing my sex life more. I wanted someone badly to satisfy me. One day, my slut daughter Uma Jolie came home after a big day in her school.
I made her something to eat and gave her some juices. She ate it and I then started discussing about a step-mom for her as I was missing sex so much. She got turned on and started stroking my cock. I was so sure that my daughter needed some cumshot surprise teen pies. I made her lay down and fucked her so hard. It was so good fucking after a long time. I then had this skinny blonde creampie and I can't wait to fuck her again.

People have always wanted to be demigods, ruling over their very own worlds – where other people could not intrude.
This is now being done routinely – in the Computer Cloud. I even have one myself in the Amazon Cloud – where I can do anything I want, to my own world – that can be a big as I want (because space there is so cheap).
Except I have little idea what is going on there – and even less of an idea how to make this private world work part of the larger world.
This is not true, however, of the powerful new companies who reside there – who understand that world, because they helped create it. They know how to coordinate this new world with the old world – and take over large parts of it.
Much of its money, for example.

A similar thing is happening in the kids' lit scene here in Perth at present, I noticed as I sailed westwards to Rottnest for the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators third annual retreat, which I attended with folk like Norman Jorgensen and James Foley, whose Last Viking book launch I attended on Friday night, Briony Stewart, whose next book Kumiko and the Shadow Catchers is about to be launched, and Meg McKinlay, whose book No Bears was launched at Rottnest by the talent-fostering Sarah Foster from Walker Books - to name but a few. I spent most of the time cycling around the very windy island, ruminating, and having long discussions about writing, the universe and everything with my fellow housies Meg, Patricia McMahon (into whose lap in the dark a quokka leapt) and the indefatigable Dianne Wolfer, but I did notice that same indefinable energy and enthusiasm that I remembered from way back when. I also believe there was karaoke.

We now have 15 alpacas, having started with 5 pregnant females in March 2008.
While I was talking non-stop in the stable, where the girls and their cria were safely in a pen, Sue was up at the house with lots of lovely helpers, supplying our guests with hot drinks and home made cakes (even if not from our home on this occasion). They also got a chance to get their hands on some toasty warm and soft alpaca socks.
The weather was seriously wet and we appreciated every one of the 70+ visitors who came to see us and the animals. Walks in the valley had been planned but will have to wait for another time.

Spring Town Meeting set to consider 45 articles
Milton, MA- It is unlikely Town Meeting, which convenes at Milton High School May 2, will be overly controversial, as most of the articles are routine or are recommended for further study.
Town Meeting members will be asked to consider 45 articles, including a revised leash law, possible zoning changes and the $110 million budget.
This article by David Johnson, other news stories, happenings and a new page for the youngest readers all appear in the Thursday, April 28 edition of the Milton Times.

so strong and true;
Purple, red, orange,
yellow, green and blue.
Not a single sound
this miracle makes;
But with one look
your breath it takes.
Stretching over
so far and wide;
With color and beauty
from side to side.
Drink it all in
like a sweet flowing song;
Before it's too late
it will soon be gone.

NGCA is proud to announce the group show Crab Walk, curated by Ned McConnell and NGCA curator George Vasey. The exhibition travels from KARST in Plymouth, where it was presented earlier this year. While using the original show, Breakin' Up is Hard to Do, as a template, Crab Walk expands on it by introducing two new artists and further commissions as well as a brand new title. Crab Walk is a straight translation of the German phrase Krebsgang and was coined by the German writer Günter Grass to describe the urgent need to "look backwards to be able to move forwards". The exhibition formalises this term through a variety of curatorial approaches that perform a type of institutional archaeology. Documentation of previous exhibitions, archival material and memories of the building from staff and the public will be collated in a free newspaper that will be dispersed throughout the city. By creating a polyphonic history of the space, the show will counter the typical neutrality afforded white cube art galleries, excavating personal, as well as social narratives.Crab Walk will present new work in a range of media, including sculpture, audio, film and painting that elide historical and contemporary motifs to explore different temporal registers. The starting point for the project came out of a discussion about the current state of Kazimir Malevich's Black Square (1915). The painting's previously pristine surface is now covered in a filigree of tiny cracks; it is literally and metaphorically breaking up. This entropy reveals a tension between the object and the image, between the cosmetic and immanent. Malevich's refusal for figurative and symbolic content was intended as a ground zero for art and - for Modernism in general - the start of a new world order. The painting's current state of decay reveals it to be an object in motion, dramatizing the shifting conditions of cultural production and reception over the last 100 years. The selection of artists and their subsequent presentation resists the traditional idea of a group exhibition. If Black Square was intended as a type of full stop, then Crab Walk proposes it to be more like a comma. The exhibition is part of an expansive and on-going conversation, and will be accompanied by a range of events, talks and readings.

Schedorhinotermes is among a few of pest termites species. Not so usual among termites this genus has a strong pungent replusive smell which doesn't seem to affect ants and these termites are readily taken by them. I suspect the smell is for the benefit of lizards, frogs and birds, maybe even small rodents like squirrel, shrew and mice since the smell certainly is unpleasant to my nose. Of course Schedorhinotermes is not the only termite that gives off an unpleasant repellent odor. Many (but not all) Odontotermes species including Hypotermes species also give off an unpleasant smell.
Even in some Scherdorhinoterms species this pungent smell is much milder and not very obvious. Also characteristic of such species is the absence (or near absence) of a major soldier caste. In such species (probably seeded by some environmental factors and not a mutation of things going horribly wrong) a diminished encounter with predators might have contributed to from a decrease in numbers to the absence of the major soldier expression.

I've just recently come home after a trip to the US, where I visited a few National Parks. And that made me think about one of my life goals, which is to visit all the National Parks in Sweden. I haven't set a time limit for this as I don't want to just rush through them. I probbaly won't visit them all this year or next, but maybe in ten years time I've completed my goal. I hope so!
29 National Parks in Sweden
Sweden is home to 29 National Parks, from north to south. And they're all different. You can find everything from vast wilderness to leafy forests to gorgeous coastline and even an underwater trail. Amazing, isn't it? They are so diverse that you're bound to find at least one that you love.
Stenshuvud National Park
I visited Stenshuvud National Park, in Skåne, earlier this spring. I went there with a good friend, without any expectations and we had the best time. I hope to be able to go back someday, hopefully in the summer so I can experience that beach a bit better.
The park was formed in 1986, which makes it 30 years old this year! It's located in the south-eastern part of Skåne and occupies 400 hectares in total, of which 80 hectares is sea. The actual mountain is called Stenshuvud and it consists of three peaks. We visited the northern one and it's 97 metres above the sea level. That makes it the highest one.
You will find an abundant variety of flora and fauna in the park and even if you visit the same place in different seasons, the place can look very different. The park is very proud to be home to sandy heaths, rocky coastline, amazing sandy beaches and wet meadows.
5 hiking trails to choose from
There's five different trails you can choose from if you like to hike. We parked our car near the north entrance and walked to the top of the mountain first, then continued to Naturum, went to walk on the sandy beach while it started to rain and then walked through wilderness and found a cute little lighthouse! A very diverse walk and just perfect for a daytrip.
Oh, and the view from the top? It's worth the struggle!
If you want to read more about all the parks, you can find information here.

Today I got an email from Which? titled 'Affected by the eruption?'
Don't ask me why but I found this completely hilarious.
(For those of you who don't know Which? is a consumer rights and reviews magazine which I subscribe to because occasionally it is useful when trying to choose which fridge/camera/car to buy.)
Does anyone not know that all flights in the UK and across most of Europe have been grounded because of a giant cloud of volcanic ash drifting slowly through the sky from Iceland making flying conditions a bit tricky? Apparantly, yes - at least one person on our web services team had no idea what we were talking about this morning.
There are a few upsides to this situation - my editor for example is stuck on a Spanish island which only has two flights a week anyway and probably won't be back until next week now, which is a bit of a mixed blessing becasue she's stuck in a lovely sunny place but is probably very worried about the likelihood of us doing something awful to her newspaper.
Miley Cyrus can't come to the UK to launch her new film and Chris Moyles was unable to present his breakfast radio show so England actually seems a bit nicer.
I also know a number of people who have been adversley affected by said eruption.
Among them is EDF, my favourite South African Brit and part of my very small group of friends who are so close they are practically family.
She was supposed to be flying home, having spent far too long away from the bosom of her family, and was due to arrive in time to celebrate her birthday. But it was not to be.
What do you do when one of your best friends is so miserable that they have to retreat to Chiswick? You give them Falke.
For girls who like tights, Falke are a sort of secret weapon. Moderately cheaper than the other super-opaques, Wolford's Velvet Touch, Falke's cotton touch tights are difficult to beat. Impressively ladder resistant - they even survive being jumped on and clawed at and licked and chewed repeatedly by a foot obsessed puppy - and soft and as thick and black as they promise to be without feeling like you've wrapped your leg in anti-blood clot bandages. None of this namby pamby M&S pretend-we're-opaque-til-you-put-us-on-and-can-still-see-skin-before-laddering-two-minutes-later nonsense. No, these are serious tights - armour for the legs of the urban woman.
Throw in a Mac eye-liner, one too many fizzy cocktails and a cheeseboard and you have a happier friend and a nice glowy feeling in your tummy like you've done something to make the world a slightly better place... which is much better than the sloshy feeling you usually get after one too many of those vodka and chamapgne and sugary flavouring of goodness drinks, especially if you've had to go all the way to Chiswick.

Hello, my name is Mrs. Pattie Intveld, RN, MSN.
I am the school nurse at OTES.
My office is on the first floor - 2 doors down from the Main Office.
My office hours are Mon.-Fri. 8:30 am - 3:30 pm.
Telephone: 732-531-5690 ext. 2010
Fax : 732-531-3682 - Email : firstname.lastname@example.com
Nurse's Notes
Ocean Township Elementary School
I would like to offer a few reminders to aid in keeping your children healthy this year:
1. Review proper handwashing at home with your children. I also encourage the teachers to allow time to wash their hands before eating lunch and/or snack, after playtime and after toileting.
The BEST defense against germs is frequent and proper handwashing. I encourage parents to pack a small bottle of hand sanitizer, a small pack of tissues, as well as some Chap Stick that students can keep in their desks. Anything we can do to get through the cold and flu season with as little illness as possible seems well worth the effort!
2. I see many students with headaches, fatigue, weakness, dizziness and/or nosebleeds. Most of these conditions are due to lack of circulating body fluid or water. When I ask students what they have had to drink that day the answers range from nothing to a few ounces of milk, juice or water all day! PLEASE encourage and remind your children about the importance of drinking at least 4-6 glasses of water each day. Juices and milk are okay, but they don't provide the body the same benefits as just plain H20. This is a great time to get them in the habit of carrying a water bottle around with them. Our teachers understand the importance of adequate water intake and permit water bottles in the classrooms.
3. Dressing in layers is often the easiest way to plan for the many variations in temperature. We will be going outside for recess twice a day as long as it's not raining or during winter,if temperature is above 32 degrees. Additionally, students will be going outside for gym classes whenever weather permits. Students who come to school without a jacket,sweater or sweatshirt will not permitted to go outside in the cooler weather. I do have a few extra jackets, etc. that I allow students to borrow for recess, but please try to make sure your child is dressed appropriately when they leave for school in the morning.
4. Proper footwear is essential during the school day. As tempting as it may be to wear clogs , dressy smooth soled shoes, flip-flops and open-toed sandals; NONE of these are safe on the playground. I see many students every day with twisted ankles, bruised and bleeding arms, knees, and fractured limbs due to improper footwear! Please check to ensure that your child is wearing SAFE footwear to school every day. Reminder: Weather permitting; students will be going outside for recess twice daily and for gym classes. Students are strongly encouraged to wear sneakers for gym days. If a student is not wearing safe shoes he/she will not be permitted to participate in gym. Many parents simply keep an extra pair of sneakers in their child's locker for gym days.
5. If your child's temperature is 100 or higher, is vomiting or had diarrhea, they need to be stay at home, and be symptom free for 24 hrs. This means a return to a normal temperature (below 99.) for 24 hours WITHOUT the use of fever reducing medication before returning to school .
6. I see many students who have not had breakfast before school. They are usually complaining of stomach pains or headache and report that they have not eaten since dinner the night before. Please be sure your child comes to school well nourished, having breakfast, morning snack, lunch money, or a packed lunch. I know that mornings can be hectic for families. If there is not time for a healthy breakfast, at least give your child a cereal bar or piece of fruit to eat on the way to school. Please remember to provide your child with the good nutrition necessary to do their BEST during the school day!
Reminder to all incoming pre-school, kindergarten and new students: NJ State law and district policy requires that all immunizations be up to date upon entering school. New students transferring from another State/Country have a 30 day grace period from their first day of school to get their immunizations and copy of a physical examination into the health office. After the 30 days, your child can be excluded from school. If you are new to the area, do not have a physician or health insurance, The Monmouth County Regional Health Commission will work with uninsured children and families to obtain N.J. State sponsored health insurance.
Thank you for your cooperation in working to achieve our mutual goal of having a safe, successful and healthy school year at OTES!

Epping Forest is massive. The trees are giants and their roots curl up from the forest floor like pythons; it is London's largest public open space and I still get lost in it on a regular basis. I love the size of Epping Forest and the feeling that I am only a small being within it.
Today, though, my eyes were drawn to things far smaller than me. I saw tiny curls of bracken unfurling.
We walked over crispy carpets of empty beech nuts.
And I marvelled at a strange knot hole which looked just like rising yeasty dough.
There was even a tiny little dormouse, crawling through some brambles. It was smaller than my thumb, and had tiny little round ears. It ran away, looking very purposeful and busy, before I could focus my camera lens on it.
Epping Forest is both epic in its size, and in its abundance of tiny details. And of course, this is why I love it so.

Atlantis: The lost city
In search of the city lost of Atlantis:It was a land highly productive fishery, blessed by a luxuriant vegetation and by the existence of valuable mineral deposits, including those of silver and gold. His people enjoyed a high scientific and cultural level. The name of that fabulous Kingdom with its big city is Atlantis.
The only description of Atlantis that has left us the old data and is the work of the Greek philosopher Plato in 347 BC. But even Plato is a first-hand witness; the philosopher did not do more to repeat the stories written by an Athenian traveller, Solon , who in turn repeated what had nest count Egyptian priests.
The story told by Plato indicates that Atlantis was a great nation, but which entered into a period of decline; his people, then fell into abominable forms of corruption and is poorly deserved a terrible punishment. "In a day and a night," the entire island, 560 km in width, was destroyed by a disaster of magnitude incomparably greater than all known.
The island was devastated by a volcanic explosion which was followed by a tsunami; in twenty-four hours, it disappeared under the sea. Plato was that tragic moment in the history of Atlantis in a period that we can today dating in 9600 before the Christian era.
This allow it to locate the island somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean; but this theory, say geologists, is not correct, because there is no subject to have been ever Plato Island land mass in the bed of the Atlantic would mean that Plato used erroneous data?
Do or simply invented throughout history, as a moralistic fable? Everything seems to indicate that the epic narrative of Plato has solid tools in a historical reality, while its data about chronology and geography of Atlantis were erroneous. Either way, the lost island is an enigma that has intrigued people for centuries.
These are some of them: central Atlantic. Along the seabed of the North and South Atlantic, extends a vast dorsal in the form of 8, from Iceland to the island of Tristan da Cunhto. Some suggest that the highest of this mountain range, especially the around parts of the arc of the Azores, were ever above sea level, forming the land of Atlantis. North America.
Public interest in the lost Kingdom of Atlantis if it revived as soon as Cristóbal Colón returned to Europe with their story!, about the lands on the other side of the ocean. The English philosopher Francis Bacón closely related the legend and historical reality in his new Atlantis. For its part, the historian John Sevain wrote: «You can have that in America time formed part of the large region that Plato Wed Island Atlantis, and that the monarchs of that island maintained commercial relations with the peoples of Europe and Africa.»
Continental bridges. We have proposed various theories about continental bridges which, in ancient times, can have linked Africa to South America, or Europe - through the British Isles, Iceland and Orodrilandia - with North America. The Sargasso Sea. The Portuguese word sargoso designates a floating seaweed; these algae are, precisely, the Sargasso Sea. For a long time, the sailors believed that algae covered shoals; These could have been ever sunk Atlantis. But there is no shoals below you Sargasso: sea there is 456 meters average depth.
The Scilly Islands. Phoenician, Greek and Roman historians agree to refer to certain "islands of Tin", off the British coast. These islands actually exist, at the height of Cornwall, and constitute the only centers. But they don't have any kinship with the lush Island described by Plato.
Bimini. Cayce said that Atlantis was destroyed by an atomic explosion, since its inhabitants dominated the science of nuclear fission. The American Seer geographically placed Atlantis on the island of North Bimini, small Member of the Bahamas, and predicted that in 1968 or 1969 «some aspects of ancient temples could discover» of the lost civilization.
However, in 1968, a veteran zoologist and an expert diver American, Dr. j. Manson Valentine, discovered under the sea, at the height of the coast of North Bimini, a strange stone structure. The main around 600 kilometres long wall, was built of huge blocks of stone, of more than five meters square each.
Subsequent expeditions - and there were many - supported and, Alternatively, refuted the conclusions of Dr. Valentine. These conclusions, in essence, said that the stone structure was a port built by man. A new Atlantis has been discarded-»
However, the two last expeditions American to Bimini, made in 1975 and 1977, returned with findings that lead to very different conclusions. Nevertheless, the most likely place where perhaps ever ever Atlantis, among numerous sites that have been proposed, is not in the Caribbean. Currently, many archaeologists believe that Plato committed two errors in bulk, in its description of the lost island.
However, we now know that around that time the center of the island of Kalliste Minos - that is known today as Santorini and is half way between Crete and continental Greece - burst through the work of a volcanic eruption of incalculable destructive power. The crater opened in the middle of the island was immediately covered by the sea. Archaeologists excavating at present deposits of volcanic ash, 30 meters, covering what once was the fabulous island described by Plato.
The crater launched outdoor molten rock and threw up ash and pumice over the overcrowded vessels; people in boats, unable to escape, suffered one death slow, horrible, as the torrent of burning lava grew was unbreathable atmosphere. For some, the agony ended with the arrival of a gigantic wave, maybe 60 meters of height, that Sarrió island and destroyed boats.
The huge wave that travelled more than 240 kilometres per hour, soon reached Crete, heart of the Minoan Empire; the water swept all the cities and villages along the northern coast and destroyed the port that supplied the capital, Knossos. The rain of ash covered an area of more than 16,000 square kilometers. Today, when shown on maps with the name of Santorini, the island appears divided into fragments and desolate under a sterile layer of ashes; in reality, has become a group of small islands: the two main, Thesa and Therasia, is characterized by its inaccessible cliffs, 300 meters height; It is"divided by a waterway of twelve kilometers wide, in some sections is 300 meters deep.
The sea water has covered boiler, the heart of the dead volcano, formed when molten rock cooled and collapsed. They consist of black lava rocks, and of them lazy smoke columns rise: pale but threatening reminder of the cataclysm that destroyed perhaps the legendary Kingdom of Atlantis.
The Atlantis of Plato: A plain, reputed as the most beautiful and fertile of all the Plains it spread in the center of the island (Atlantis). Around the Hill, such as Medes of cano, appeared two rings of land, surrounded by three rings of sea. In the Centre of the Hill was located a sanctuary dedicated to Poseidon and Cleito; surrounding the Temple a wall of gold, which was forbidden to pass. All of this produced in abundance that; Holy Island, when he was still in the Sun.
Another temple dedicated to Poseidon, was made entirely of silver except the statues, which were gold. Two sources, a warm and one cold, provided unlimited amounts of water island; warm baths, intended for the Kings and commoners, women and horses had been built next to it.
In the outer rings of land settled shipyards and ports, surrounded by a dense wall of buildings, houses. Of this area, where he lived a very large population, there was a constant cacophony of voices and noises, during both day and overnight. Extended beyond the plains where it reached perfection these aromatic substances that also today produces the land and are now made of roots, and herbs of trees, flowers or fruits. All of this produced in abundance that; Holy Island, when he was still under the Sun. Critias and Timaeus, Plato
The resurgence of AtlantisEdgar Cayce (1877-1945) American healer and Seer prophesied in June of 1940 that Atlantis crippled soon: «Poseidia will be one of the first areas of Atlantis who moderated. He is expected to occur in 68 or 69. Not missing much.»
It came even to realize the site: in the Bahamas. By a remarkable coincidence, some fliers photographed in 1968 what appeared to be building sunk off the coast of North Bimini, in the Bahamas.
Underwater explorations have revealed the existence of rock formations similar to wide streets paved at the bottom of the sea, and also have been mentioned cyclopean walls, pyramids and stone circles. So far, there is no tangible proof of such descriptions.
By the way, is this a suitable area to find Atlantis. I have long believed that the Sargasso Sea, on the other side of the Bahamas, was the "innavegables shoals" that remained after the collapse of the Atlantis of Plato. But for centuries been also «Street» and «walls» submerged along the European Atlantic coast, as alleged evidence of the veracity of the legends about "sunken cities".
In fact, everything that looks like an artificial structure just being linked, sooner or later, with the idea of a 'sunken city'. The tremendous impact of the Atlantis of Plato has much to do in this regard.
Writer, researcher and American politician Ignatiys Donnelly (1831-1901) was, with more property than any other, who raised the interest by the their Atlantis work: the antidiluviano world, published in 188B, became the 'Bible' of all those who believed in the lost continent. The thesis of Donnelly seemed to explain mysteries such as the similarities between pre-Columbian cultures and the civilization of ancient Egypt, the mysterious migration of eels and the origins of the Basque people, Donnelly got triggered a controversy, so strong and lasting that only modern science and technology have been able to disprove many of their claims
Helena Blavatsky (1831-18911 Russian spiritualist and co-founder of the Theosophical Society, whom many consider a talkative. Her to his Court of occult Atlantis and Lemuria were well established facts.
Madame Blavatsky claimed that Atlantis was in the North Atlantic, and that its inhabitants were a very civilised race, the fourth "root race» of humanity descended from the lemurians. Current human beings would be the fifth "root race", that soon will evolve, by influence of the Americans, until sixth 1a "root race" originates. Over time the last will emerge in South America.
The American photographer Edgar Cayce (1877-1945), who became a healer, Prophet and visionary. In his frequent trances, she had dreams and visions of Atlantis and its advanced civilization.
Cayce believed that the Atlanteans had mastered nuclear power and flight, but its brilliant civilization ended up being destroyed in three nuclear catastrophes: the first 50,000 years BC and the latest, 10,000 BC, many Atlanteans who were able to warn; the catastrophe would have fled prior to Egypt and Central America.

I have only recently begun to explore the world of vloggers, a word which stems from "video bloggers." I have always been much more interested in reading blogs, and still am, but I do enjoy watching the occasional vlog.
One of the most compelling vloggers I have watched is Ze Frank. Below is an example of one of his videos…
Clicking around the vlog world, it is apparent that many people try to make it as vloggers. With so many people attempting to make successful video blogs, I began to think about what makes a vlogger successful.
Looking at Ze Frank, it is apparent that he is interesting. He has a unique voice and overall look about him. He is well spoken and there is an artistry to the way he puts words together. He also has that not-blinking quirk going for him.
If a vlogger has a series of unique characteristics that make him or her interesting, he or she is more likely to connect with an audience. That seems to be what sets successful video bloggers apart. They use their personality and interests to connect with an audience.
Video blogging can become a useful asset in independent media. Vlogging creates an illusion of having a conversation with the blogger and it creates a new type of intimacy. It is a step closer to face-to-face interaction in the internet era. As independent continues to have a goal of creating community, video blogging on news organization websites could draw even more readership.

If your kitty scratches at the floor around his food bowl or pushes something over the bowl to cover it, you might logically think he's trying to tell you something. Maybe he is, and theories abound. But as with many behaviors of the ever-fascinating feline, the truth is a mystery.
Food Caching
When Kitty's wild cousins kill prey larger than themselves, they eat what they can and bury the rest, returning to it for their next meal. But it's every cat for himself – bobcats who find a buried cache from another cat's kill will help themselves to it. Your domestic darling might instinctively make digging motions in an attempt to hide his leftover food, even though no one is going to steal it.
Covering Scent
In the wild, predator cats try to avoid attracting other predators or scavengers to their food by burying it to cover the scent. Covering the food also prevents potential prey from being tipped off that there are predators around who might be after them next. Many prey animals will avoid the scent of a dead animal because it tells them that a predator is in the area. By going through the motions of covering his food, your cat might just be acting out prudent predator behavior.
He Thinks It's Yucky
If you change your kitty's diet and he suddenly begins to try to cover it, it could be his way of telling you he's not happy with the change. Maybe he doesn't like the taste of it, or maybe you dared change the location of the food bowl. Any of these things might trigger him to cover the offending food. Cats might also cover their food when they have no appetite because of illness, so make sure you check with your vet if your cat suddenly starts this behavior for no apparent reason.
If It's a Problem
It's not unusual for cats to hide their food, but if it becomes an obsession for him, or if he's taken to dragging your delicate sofa doilies to his food bowl, Cat Behavior Associates has a few tips: give him smaller portions so he doesn't have leftovers, pick up the food bowl when he's finished eating, distract him with play when he starts scratching at the floor, or place his food in puzzle feeders so he has to hunt for it.

As 'The Good Wife' Season 5 progresses towards its finale, speculation of another major twist is buzzing round the corner. Will Gardener's shocking death is probably one of the biggest twists in television history which left fans in a state of disbelief and grief.
But show producers Robert and Michelle King assured viewers of good times ahead with a fresh approach to the existing storyline.
Entertainment website kpopstarz.com suspects a happier twist with the introduction of Alicia and Finn's romantic chemistry during the finale slated to air on May 18.
In an event organised by the show's producers, Julianna Margulies (Alicia Florrick) revealed an important spoiler: Alicia and Peter may be getting a mutual divorce.
"Can me and the Governor have a conscious uncoupling?" Margulies said during the event.
The statement made by Margulies coincides with the recent promo of episode 17 'A Material World' showing a major fight between Alicia and her husband Peter.
The Good Wife fans have always hated Alicia and Peter as a couple and were eagerly waiting for Will and Alicia's romance to take shape. But with the arrival of Finn (Matthew Goode), some feel good moments can be expected in the future.
In an interview to entertainment website Tvline.com show producers have teased Finn as the new romantic lead of The Good Wife Season 5 after Will's sad demise.
Fans must have noticed the heroic entry of Finn Polmar at the time of Will's death. Finn had even tried to cover Will but in return got bullet injuries. Will's last moments can form a romantic connection between Finn and Alicia, entertainment website kpopstarz suspects.
"He's Alicia's connection to Will's last moments, because he was there [in the courtroom]. He was with Will. And it turns out he was fairly heroic in covering Will. And Finn was hit a few times with gunfire because of that. So Alicia feels a connection there," Robert King told TVLine.
"Josh created a great jolt of male energy in the show. We wanted an equivalent jolt once we knew Josh was leaving. So no matter what way Josh was leaving the show, we knew we needed to get more male energy."
Robert also hinted at some crackling hot chemistry between Alicia and Finn in the upcoming finale. Fans can now get rid of the tissues and enjoy some fun moments with a bag of popcorns.
The Good Wife Season 5 airs every Sunday at 9pm on CBS.

High-definition television and other advanced electronics bring stunning audiovisual quality to home entertainment, but are often so complex that it's hard to describe them—much less explain how to install or use them. When Sony Electronics needed crystal-clear messaging copy that its channel and agency partners could use in their consumer-facing marketing collateral, it turned to the Content Bureau.
"We had worked with several large agencies, but struggled to find the quality copy we needed," recalls Lisa McPherron, then strategic marketing manager for Sony's Home Products Division.
"The Content Bureau delivered exactly what we were looking for—simple, easy-to-understand copy blocks for our top ten consumer electronics products."
Sony next tapped the Content Bureau to collaborate with web design firm Razorfish on transforming its HDTV Learning Center website into a well-organized comparison of Sony HDTV models. We developed the copy for the site's interactive features, FAQs, user guides, and product descriptions. Convinced of our versatility, Sony also tasked us with refining the messaging on Blu-Ray high-definition video—an innovator in high-definition video technology.

|We savoured every moment during our glorious gondola ride.
One night and two days in Venice. I left my girls behind, our faces stinging with tears as our time together in Europe ended. I waved till my arm dropped off until the girls and the platform disappeared. I actually spent the whole time on the 2 1/2 hour trip to Milano thinking about our time in Venice. It surprised me. Venice. Wow. I had some very unspectacular reviews on the place and it completely took me by surprise. I guess everyone has a different experience, but I loved it. I really didn't expect to love it. Far from it. Which is why I didn't allow myself much time in the first place - I knew I wouldn't be there for long as I had preconceived notions. I would simply go so that I could see for myself how unspectacular it really is. So I thought. I was wrong. At least for me. I was wrong.
Yes Venice was spectacular. The crowds however were horrendous. And that's my only qualm. But. Then again. The place was loaded with atmosphere. People from all walks of life, from all around the world, all walking together or into each other.
I loved walking behind my two gorgeous girls and watching the admiring glances of young menfolk, old too, and the envious casting looks of some women. Hmmm. I rather enjoyed it all! I felt quite tickled with the attention the girls were getting. I even had one man ask me were they sisters and was I the Mama. He shook my hand, said 'bella' pointing to the girls and said 'you dunna good job'. I laughed my head off. That was simply one little episode. There were heaps just like it. And we kept a sense of humour about it all and we embraced the ways of the Italians. It's who they are. Brash, arrogant, in your face, helpful and unhelpful, honest, eager and real. No facade. No pretending. It is what it is. They seemed to communicate with their physicality and their actions, which didn't always speak louder than words. They speak pretty loudly. And I loved it.
I wish I had more time in Venice. My fault. It goes to show. It doesn't pay to have preconceived notions. Or to think someone's view will be your view. I guess you really need to go and see for yourself, but for me at least it was marvellous. The chaos, hot-blooded men, the canals, the rustic walls, pizza and pasta, venetian masks, gondolas, the whole damn lot. I found myself feeling warm and open in Venice. So did the girls. We embraced it for all that it is and we felt the Venetian response. I absolutely loved it.

A week after stating that the OpenDocument standard requires some development in order to be used, Corel has reaffirmed its commitment to the OpenDocument Format, and called for its adoption.
In an interview published on BetaNews last week, Corel Corp.s Richard Carriere noted that Corel is a founding member of OASIS, the consortium responsible for the OpenDocument standard. But he stated that theres no adoption of the standard, and that some development needs to be done "to make it into a real product."
In an attempt to both clarify the companys position and put more emphasis on its commitment to ODF, Corels communication manager for WordPerfect said, "Corel is pleased to support the continued development and adoption of the OASIS OpenDocument Format, and Corel strongly endorses ODF, much as we strongly support the adoption of open standards industry-wide."
Novell Inc. has also given more prominence to its role in the ODF movement . Although the company has been active in promoting the format in the past, this is the first day that Novell has been officially listed on the membership roster of the technical committee at OASIS.
Both Novell and Corel had representatives in the discussion of ODF adoption by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The state approved a plan to transition to ODF from Microsoft Corp.s Office file formats, although there is still debate over the issue, with hearings proposed by the states senate.
Before Massachusetts issued its decision, Microsoft tried unsuccessfully to convince the state that pursuing ODF would be costly and unnecessary, given the open features of the companys current and upcoming releases.
"Weve shipped a version of Office 2003 with an open format and weve expressed more commitment to the approach in our next Office releases," said Alan Yates, Microsoft general manager. "We feel that were not being given enough of an opportunity to explain how openness is possible."
What is likely to become an issue for Microsoft is its definition of "open," said Ian Campbell, CEO and president of Nucleus Research. "Microsofts openness still has some proprietary aspects to it. Its possible that they might have to make changes to support OpenDocument, to fall in line with the rest of the industry."
Aside from whether Microsoft will actually leap onto the OpenDocument train, the emphasis on ODF by Corel and Novell bolsters Massachusetts decision, Campbell believes.
"It makes it easier for the state to justify going in that direction, and gives more weight to their argument," he said. "It may also make it easier for others to follow their lead."
The reaffirmations by Corel and Novell should also be beneficial to ODF adoption, said RedMonk analyst and co-founder Stephen OGrady.
"Corel has a strong position in vertical markets, like law firms, which makes their support of the standard important," he noted. "Novell is probably on board with this because they sell Linux desktops, and any move away from the Microsoft format is good for that effort."
As more companies catch the ODF train, it should continue to gain momentum and traction, OGrady noted.
"Each commercial entity that joins and lends their support to ODF gives it more credibility," he said.
