The frameset is made out of dedaccia Dolmen tubing, so we can derive that this particular example of italian frame building dates from the beginning of the 90's. It is equipped with a Campagnolo Mirage group, except the front mech, which is a centaur one. The wheels are built of Campagnolo mirage hubs laced to Alesa Chaser rims. I have bought this bike from the first owner. The overall condition is very good, it looks like it left the Pinarello factory yesterday.The decals are original and still in a very good condition, which is rare for a Pinarello.

"Right now I'm looking at you, and I can't believe/You don't know, oh, oh/You don't know you're beautiful."
Blake Ephraim had belted out those lyrics to One Direction's "What Makes You Beautiful" too many times for her mother to count.
But last December, when Lisa Wilcox heard her daughter quietly sing every single word of her favorite song, it was not only reassuring, it was nothing short of a miracle.
Just a month before, Blake, an active 16-year-old junior varsity cheerleader at Olathe South High School, had suffered a stroke caused by cerebral venous sinus thrombosis.
It was a diagnosis her family never expected.
Blake's symptoms started on a Friday morning with an earache. She went to school, and she cheered at the football game that night.
The next evening, however, her earache had progressed into a pounding, debilitating headache. Blake was inconsolable. Her parents rushed her to the emergency room. Doctors there found bleeding on her brain and transferred her to the Advanced Comprehensive Stroke Center at The University of Kansas Health System. It's one of the first in the nation – and the only one in region – to receive this certification from The Joint Commission.
Here, Lisa Wilcox first heard the word "stroke" to describe what had happened to her daughter.
"My first reaction was that Blake had a cheer competition in three weeks," Lisa said. "I just couldn't process it. Stroke isn't something that happens to 16-year-old girls. It was overwhelming."
The Acute Stroke Response Team took the first steps to monitor Blake's brain pressure, control the swelling and minimize the damage to her brain. Blake's team was led by neurosurgeon Koji Ebersole, MD, and neurointensivist Kathrin Husmann, MD.
"The whole neuro ICU team – neurointensivists, specialized nurses, board-certified neurosurgeons – continuously monitor our patients," said Dr. Husmann. "We can be at the patient's bedside in moments to assess the situation and respond immediately. That makes a huge difference with stroke patients because time isn't on our side."
Because of that attention, Blake's team quickly realized that medications and moderate measures weren't doing enough to relieve the pressure on her brain.
Dr. Ebersole performed a decompressive craniectomy, a complex neurosurgical procedure in which part of the skull is removed to give the brain room to expand. With her brain pressure under control, the team worked on breaking up the clot.
A couple of days later, the doctors took her off the ventilator, and Blake said her first word, "Mom."
Blake still faced a long road to recovery. Her right side and right arm were weak, and her language skills were deficit. She spent nearly a month in a Nebraska rehabilitation facility working on physical, occupational and speech therapy. All the while she was motivated by the music of her favorite bands.
"I'd never been sick. I'd never had to ask anyone for help," Blake said. "And here I was. I couldn't figure out the words I wanted to say. I could only stand up. But quitting was never an option."
Today, Blake is back in school and recently made the varsity cheerleading team. Her recovery has been an inspiration to both her classmates and the doctors on her care team.
"In no way did I anticipate how well she would do – a large part due to her amazing spirit and supportive family," said Dr. Husmann. "It's been exciting to be part of her care."
Blake realizes she still has a lot of work to do, and she'll improve with the support of family and friends at her side.
"The one great lesson I learned?" said Lisa. "If your child is having a stroke, get them to The University of Kansas Health System. You want that stroke team helping your child from the very first second they possibly can."
We are deeply saddened to report that Blake passed away July 15, 2018. Her courage, spirit and smile spread inspiration throughout our team and far beyond. We were honored to know Blake and will never forget her.

Cast of Characters
I'm busy writing the fifth installment of "Trip Hazard - Los Angeles Private Eye who will also work for publicly quoted companies". I've not written the first four yet, maybe I never will.
I'll let you know when it's ready. It might even come out in podcast form if I can come up with a convincing american accent. Just as a taster, here is the cast:
Trip Hazard: an LA PI who nearly always does the right thing. In his own way. Cast aside by the LAPD for a crime he probably didn't commit he now wages war on the side of the angels in the city of the angels, helped by his treasured '74 open top Mustang and numerous friends and acquaintances. First seen in the pilot programme: "This Shield May Not Be for Hire"
Mycroft Strange: sometime sidekick to Trip who finds his classically trained, British Empire background a help and hindrance in equal parts. A mystic codebreaker who also worked for MI5 he joined forces with Trip in episode two; "Eat Lead for Breakfast"
Koyoto: Enigmatic Japanese beauty with brains to match. Teamed up with Trip in episode three; "Ninja Motorbike Assassins from Tokyo" when he saved her from a life of high octane crime.
Beverley Vermont: Wisconsin Cheese heiress who, due to her inadvertent involvement in a Mafia yoghurt scam, ended Trip's police career. Returns to become his full time lover in episode four; "Milk isn't the only thing that curdles".
Archibald Nemisis : a childhood friend of Trip who has since gone over to the wrong side of the tracks and lives in a disused station there. Now a boss of a huge underworld syndicate which also operates above ground. Really the cause of Trip's downfall, and nurses a non-secret passion for Beverley. Although he wouldn't kick Koyoto out of bed either. Introduced in episode one.

With Brock Osweiler officially a Houston Texan, the Broncos QB situation is extremely murky. Many media reports had Robert Griffin III pegged to land in Denver, but alas, Mark Sanchez was traded to the Broncos.
Sanchez is not really regarded as an NFL starter anymore, but that's exactly what he's eyeing in Denver. In fact, John Elways is encouraging him to believe that he's the starter. Not sure who he's competing against at this point.
"Let's go, let's compete," Sanchez said Monday at his introductory press conference at Broncos headquarters.
But for Sanchez to win that job – no matter who his competition winds up being – he'll need to prove he can be an effective game manager like he was early in his career with the New York Jets, when led the team to a pair of AFC title games, and not the turnover-prone player he was in his final seasons in New York and during his time as a backup in Philadelphia.

For the treatment of renal failure and to know about what do kidney stones look like, there are several methods, for example, extracorporeal blood purification (hemosorption, plasmosorption, etc.), which is conventionally called an "artificial kidney."
These methods allow maintaining the organism's working capacity for a relatively long time at a sufficient level due to the fact that toxic substances formed in the body are removed from the blood, which is passed through special columns filled with a sorbent (absorber). The disadvantage of this method is the need for periodic (after 1 3 days) visits to patients by a medical institution for the next blood purification procedure, which significantly reduces the patient's quality of life.

Mike Best, from Turley Planning Consultants, met the CCFC Stadium Forum as new stadium plans continue to progress...
The CCFC Stadium Forum has met a senior planning consultant working on the club's proposed new stadium.
The group of supporters, chaired by local businesswoman Sandra Garlick, includes fans of all ages. Some attend matches at Sixfields while others haven't attended a home game since the move to groundshare.
The Forum has been brought together to help supporters influence the new ground the club wants to build in the Coventry area.
At the latest meeting, supporters heard from Mike Best, of Turley Planning Consultants, who spelled out the work that had been undertaken so far and the process the club is going through to build its new ground.
Garlick said that supporters had pressed Best, who was joined by chief executive Tim Fisher, on why information was being kept confidential.
She said: "The group was really keen to find out more because there is, undoubtedly, a sense of frustration out there at the amount of information being released.
"Mike said he had been involved with a number of football clubs and that it wasn't unusual to keep information under wraps until such time as it could be released.
"He said that he was part of a wider team being employed by the club and that a great deal of work had already been done. He said that was how the club had reduced to two the number of sites they were working towards.
"Mike told us that many of the potential hurdles could be foreseen and jumped at this stage in the hope that it could speed up the planning process but said that couldn't be guaranteed.
"As football fans, the majority of us aren't expert in matters of planning, especially on this scale, so it was an interesting insight and members of the group were grateful for the update."
She added: "Tim gave an update on an economic impact assessment that has been carried out and that details how the new ground will bring positive benefits to the local area in which it is to be built.
"He also told us that earlier feedback, especially around the history of the club, was being passed onto the architects to work into their plans.
"Ultimately, we all want the club back in the Coventry area and we want the new stadium to be a home that all of the supporters can be proud of and that can provide a long-term future for Coventry City Football Club."

Breathe easy, Boise State football fans — the Broncos have done their due diligence to protect Albertsons Stadium's iconic blue turf. A contract with the Basque Soccer Friendly includes stipulations to protect the artificial surface, which is being covered in green grass for next Saturday's match between Spain's Athletic Bilbao and Mexico's Club Tijuana. Below are key elements in the contract, obtained by the Idaho Statesman through a Freedom of Information Act request.
• The Basque Soccer Friendly had to raise at least $500,000 in cash and legally binding commitments before May 31 to cover up-front costs. The event needed to raise at least $300,000 in cash before April 30.

• Event organizers had to contract with a vendor who could install sod and "guarantee that the warranty on The Blue turf will remain in place." Boise State had to approve that vendor.
• The event — and all vendors — had to obtain insurance that covers at least $1 million in damages for each incident and at least $2 million in aggregate.
• Organizers are responsible for the full cost of installing, maintaining and removing the sod field, as well as returning, "The Blue to its condition before sod installation."
• The turf must be returned to playable condition by no later than Aug. 3. Boise State starts its fall football camp Aug. 6.
• The BSF is responsible for all costs and expenses, including "staffing, security, utilities, supplies, cleaning, trash removal, parking, ticket sales and video board operations."
• Event organizers acknowledge if Boise State's blue turf is not returned to a playable condition before its first home game (vs. Washington on Sept. 4), damages "would be greater than just the value of The Blue itself, and include at a minimum: loss of ticket sales, loss of TV revenue, travel costs other game related expenses.''

Oga Gets Full Recognition As The Pso For Grappling And Pankration
Toronto, ON: Mixed martial arts fans are ready to roll, now that pankration and grappling are recognized as amateur martial arts sports in Ontario.
The Ministry of Tourism Culture and Sport awarded the Ontario Grappling Association (OGA), with full recognition as a Provincial Sport Organization earlier in November. This PSO appointment lifts a one-year ban that brought these combative sports to a standstill, benched athletes, and locked down tournaments, forcing some contenders to compete outside the province or go underground. Now that a PSO is in place, sanctioned events will no longer place competitors at risk for criminalization under section 83 of the federal criminal code.
More than your average fight club, the Ontario Grappling Association has been in operation for over 10 years. It is a not-for-profit organization, run by a board of: athletes, trainers and businessmen. As the sole sanctioning body for gi and no-gi variations of these amateur martial arts sports, the OGA is authorized by the province to oversee the development of athletes through the administration of competition. The OGA also wants to develop programs to increase awareness and accessibility in underrepresented groups such as; children, women and the aging population.
The sports of pankration and grappling, are technique-based martial arts with roots tracing back as far as ancient Greece. Blending wrestling, muay thai and Brazilian Jiu-jitsu - grappling is both a form of self defense and a combative sport. It's close cousin, pankration incorporates strikes and holds to take down an opponent in close range.
"It's been a tough road conditioning athletes for a sport where they risked criminal charges for competing. The team at Ontario Grappling Association has worked very hard to provide the documentation needed to achieve the PSO which will permit the development of athletes, trainers and officials to advance our sport to the next level" said vice president of the Ontario Grappling Association, Jesse Richardson.
The first official event as sanctioning body will be held on Saturday, December 16, 2017. For information and tickets copy this link: bit.ly/2kIZ2wl or go to www.luta.ca

The Fight Scholarship - Released By Oga
Ontario Grappling Association is delighted to introduce it's highly anticipated "The Fight Scholarship" which includes Pankration, Amateur MMA, Grappling, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Scholarships.
We've been awaiting the launch of this program for over a year and are pleased to initiate our Scholarship program just in time for the Canadian National Combat Championships 2014 to be held on August 16th in Brampton, Ontario.
The Fight Scholarship is designed to inspire competitors to be the best they can be. To encourage what should be uninhibited motivation, OGA, through this initiative, is eliminating the pressure of training costs and allowing high performance competitors to unlock their potential.
Introduction of The Fight Scholarship would not be possible without the support of several new partners that have committed to specific financial donations in order to sustain the program. It was imperative that the long-awaited program was fully funded prior to its initiation. A few noteworthy commitments to action in this project include financial assistance by our long standing Martial Arts supporters, Street Soldier, Canadian Combat Alliance, Pecker'd Promotions, and other corporate sponsors to help students pay for martial arts training and provide them with the necessary training equipment.
The Fight Scholarship also reaches out to local Training Centres and Gym Owners involved, and assists them in increasing their student participation. Furthermore, OGA has begun to provide additional resources and services for Clubs that have joined as mem

© 2016 Yan-Song Liu et al. In planning for a large-scale multicenter trial to evaluate the effect of acupuncture for the treatment of lateral elbow pain, a pilot study was conducted. This was a prospective, investigator- and patient-blinded, nonrandomized, placebo controlled trial. Subjects were evaluated at baseline, before fourth, seventh, and ninth treatment, and at a two-week posttreatment follow-up. The treatment group received unilateral acupuncture at LI 10 and LI 11 at the affected side with manual needle manipulation; the control group received sham-laser acupuncture at the same acupoints. Measures included (i) disabilities of the arm, shoulder, and hand (DASH) questionnaire, (ii) pain-free grip strength (PFGS), and (iii) a visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain. Significant differences in DASH score, PFGS, and VAS between treatment and control group were found at the ninth treatment (n = 20 for each group, P < 0.05). Only DASH showed significant differences compared to the control for all the measurement time points after treatment commenced and appears to be a sensitive and appropriate primary outcome measure for the future multisite trial. Results from this pilot study provided relevant information about treatment efficacy, credibility of control treatment, and sensitivity of different outcome measures for the planning of the future trial.

IMPAQ OSS Competence Centres
Consulting & Delivery
Multi Technology Service Provider
Today, OSS system solution moves towards completely new operations paradigm.
Hardware and software suppliers need to face the new challenges related with shortened lifecycle of the infrastructure driven by shortened lifecycle of the services. There is no more space for long-term ROI like it used to be within traditional systems (5-20 years or more in operations). All the investments are recently focused on rapid service delivery, limited number of subscribers in use and limited CAPEX/OPEX spending.
There is a need for integrating existing OSS platforms (very often legacy ones) with the brand new set ups. The new ecosystems have to be designed as fully automated systems (in form of Self Organized Networks e.g.) that include management-as-a–service logic. This helps the companies combine traditional infrastructure (e.g. telecom voice/sms/data offering in case of telecom operators) with the new offering like narrowband network services (including IoT), cloud based services, distributed infrastructure platforms (including blockchain infrastructure), etc.
IMPAQ helps its customers in setting up modern OSS ecosystems in most cost-effective way, providing wide range of IT services:
- Business & Technical Consulting
- Managed Services
- Remote R&D center (dedicated Software Factory)
- Testing Factory
- Support & Maintenance service center
- Legacy systems operations
Within dozen of expertise domains, we may emphasize our focus on:
- IBM Tivoli
- FNT software
- NETadmin
- Nokia OSS solutions
- Custom Development Solutions
- Number of other platforms

Robin Welch – 65 Years in the Making
Exhibition Preview: Wednesday 1st November, 6.00 to 8.00pm; When looking back over his 65 years as a potter, it's difficult for Robin to pinpoint the exact inspiration behind his latest series of work. He gives a very typical Robin Welch answer: "A bit of this, a bit of that". His modest response glosses over the fact that despite being one of the UK's most highly respected contemporary potters, he is still able to surprise. Robin's abstract visual style remains continually experimental and highly individual, and his enduring skill as a painter can be seen clearly in the surface texture, colour and line of pieces that reflect the intense hues of a Rothko.
The sheer physicality of the job – throwing the clay and building the slabs – has become more difficult over the last seven decades, but that has not impacted the quantity and quality of Robin's output. At 81 years old, he still walks over to his studio every morning and puts in an eight hour shift. What urges him on is the idea of the untried: the inexhaustible, yet to be explored combinations of shape, colour and texture that are possible with clay and slip. He strives to make his constantly-evolving work experimental and bold, always hoping to provoke a strong emotion in the viewer.
"This year marks my 65th year as an active artist, so it seems necessary that this exhibition should include a whole variety of my ceramic styles. I have absorbed a wide range of influences over the years, from the Australian landscape for colour and texture, to totally abstract creations relating to artists such as Rothko, Klein, Motherwell, and the Cornish painters. During my domestic ware period, I looked to the Arabia Pottery (in Finland) and the techniques of jigger and jolly . I thank the CPA for the honorary fellow membership they've awarded me, and hope all will enjoy my work"
The exhibition will include approximately 30 small pieces and 15 larger ones. Five or six very large pieces are drawn from his archive of work covering the last couple of decades, and are of a size rarely seen at Robin's exhibitions

My pilgrim's journey on the famous Camino de Santiago de Compostela pilgrimage (aka the Way of St James) began at the Spanish Meseta (plateau), starting the hike from a small village called Hornillos. It was a beautiful walk, lined with many pretty wild flowers amidst a backdrop of rolling green hills and valleys. "Buen Camino" (good way) was the greeting we call out to fellow pilgrims on this lovely hike as we journeyed on, listening to many a wonderful tale about the area, from the history of the boulders remnants along the path, to even conservation help for the path from quarters as far away as, amazingly, south africa.
But nothing beats the joy in our hearts as we approached the picturesque village of Hontanas, nestling comfortably in a beautiful valley and with the pilgrim's path going beyond up a hill yonder. The village dome building in particular seems to leap and speak to me, as with the trees on the distant hill. I knew I had to paint this scene, this feeling of jubilance. So I got my trusty camera out and took many pictures as we walked the pretty path into Hontanas, a wonderful stop for pilgrims to rest and unwind, and not forgeting to collect a stamp or two from the local tavern, before continuing on with the pilgrim's journey. Much like the journey in life, we encounter beautiful surprise highlights along the camino way, and this was a memorable one.
Title: Picturesque Arrival (O50)
Description: An exuberant piece featuring the Meseta (high plains) section of the pilgrim route of Camino de Santiago de Compostela (the Way of St James), which passes through many a picturesque local village like this one called Hontanas. Spain Camino 2010.

The Eritrean Government has called on the international community to put pressure on Ethiopia to abide by the ruling of the independent commission deciding where the border between the two countries lies.
A government spokesman told the BBC's Jonah Fisher in Asmara that Ethiopia's statement - that the commission's latest ruling was unacceptable - would have "grave consequences".
Yemane Ghebremeskel said by rejecting the commission's latest report - that awarded the disputed border village of Badme to Eritrea - Ethiopia was violating the sanctity of colonial boundaries which was a fundamental principle in Africa.
The physical demarcation of the border is expected to begin in July.
Although Ethiopian has expressed its regrets over the Badme ruling, it has not openly rejected it.
The village of Badme ignited a bloody two and a half year war between the two countries in May 1998.
Dangerous decision
"I would expect that there would be measures from the United Nations Security Council, from the OAU or the African Union to persuade Ethiopia to abide by the Commission's decisions, Mr Ghebremeskel said.
"But if Ethiopia does not do that (comply), there will be consequences. I do not want to speculate on that now but that decision will be extremely grave and a very dangerous decision."
The bitter war formally ended with the signing of the Algiers peace agreement in December 2000.
The agreement established the boundary commission to decide once and for all where the border lies, and both countries promised to abide by the decision.
But Ethiopia said that the boundary commission did not stick to its mandate as defined in Algiers, and hopes that now it will rectify its mistakes.
The BBC's correspondent in Addis Ababa Damian Zane says it is hard to see what would lead Addis Ababa into accepting that Badme is part of Eritrea.
He added that it would be a bitter pill for the government to swallow and the government has also said the people will not accept it.
The boundary commission judgement's was based on treaties, maps and historical reality.
Ethiopia had, before the war, administered the Badme but Eritrea sent its troops to the village, claiming it as part of its territory.
Thousands lost their lives and hundreds of thousands more from both sides were displaced.

Somalia on the verge of famine
From SAAD MUSE in Mogadishu, Somalia
MOGADISHU, (CAJ News) – SOME 71 000 children, aged under five, at high risk of death from severe malnutrition, are among 6 million people in need of humanitarian access in Somalia.
This is the aftermath of relentless drought that has left 363 000 children malnourished.
The starvation is deteriorating from a point of crisis to full scale emergency in the absence of adequate food, water, livestock and healthcare.
As the famine looks increasingly likely in rural areas, a rapid increase in the number of households arriving at urban centres in search of much-needed relief has been noted
The number of internally displaced persons is projected to increase to three million by June.
With the burden vastly exceed the funding available, agencies fear the worst.
"The country hangs dangerously at the cusp of a famine," said International Office of Migration Somalia head, Gerry Waite.
Waite fears a repeat of Somalia's devastating 2010 drought when 260 000 people died.
"We must do everything we can to stop the worst from happening."
United Nations office of humanitarian affairs decried reduced rural employment, widespread shortage of water and pasture and rapidly rising food prices in the East African country of 11 million.

One of our favorite places to stroll about here in Phnom Penh is the Royal University of Phnom Penh. Late afternoon gets a little bit crowded there with young people having picnics, some playing soccer, some playing badminton and some doing some brisk walking.
Photos are of Institute of Foreign Languages (IFL)..
The Royal University of Phnom Penh (RUPP) is located along the corner of Confederation de la Russie and St. 598. The area is big with lots of trees, ponds, walking paths. It's also free to get in as long as its open.
The buildings are also lovely, some built in the 1960's so the architecture is pretty interesting blend of Khmer and French influences. My daughter loves going to the ponds in the Institute of Foreign Language, lots of fishes there and you can even feed them..
Whenever we go there I can't resist taking photos of the buildings and I've collected some to share. 😀 Enjoy!

First period
The morning sprayed in through the gap beneath the oatmeal beige shades, stabbing Jim's eyes when he accidentally looked at the bright horizon. Also in the distance, his teacher's voice echoed a tired analysis of Orwell or Golding or something else you're supposed to think is deep when you're in high school. When he got sick of hearing her strained voice croak the meaning of this or that allegorical theme, he scanned around for some simpler stimulant for his half-asleep head.
First there was Beckie. Right below Beckie were Beckie's breasts. They hung there like giant raindrops caught in some lacey white gutter, bulging over the edges and only kept from spilling by the tension of her teenage skin. Beckie liked horses, he recalled. Beckie and her breasts, bouncing on horseback as her long red hair brushed around and between them. The mental image moved muscles in his groin he didn't think actually existed.
Then, there was Kendra. Her hair looked like straw, held behind her head with some backward-bowtie knot that only boyscouts are supposed to know. She fiddled with it now, her quick fingers and chewed-off nails feeling for imperfections. Her fingers led down to thin arms and narrow shoulders, where her skin faded from farmer-tan red to milky white. She dressed and acted like her whole life was gym class. Jim thought for a moment, in a sort of smiling reverie, how that would play out beneath the covers. Whether or not that could ever happen was, of course, not a question for right now.
The desk-chair combo squeaked a bit as Jim surveyed the rear of the room and pretend to stretch. In the back corner, at last, was something truly worth turning around for:
Something else.

Hayden Panetierre was sitting in the back of the room, surveying the classes to study for her next role as another cheerleader.
Jim was amazed at her body, her shirt hugging her breasts, her skirt giving him a view of her panties, and her wonderful thighs that he wish he could be right next to.
It was after class that things got weird. Hayden quickly rushed out of class as Jim followed not too far behind. Hayden hadn't noticed. Jim followed her to...

Student Health Insurance 2018 – 2019 School Year (UPDATE: 7/30/18)
ACC Student Health Insurance Plan FAQ
Student Health Insurance Eligibility Clarification
Austin Community College is pleased to partner with UnitedHealthcare to provide students access to health and dental insurance for the 2018 – 2019 school year.
The new web page is www.uhcsr.com/austincc
UnitedHealthcare is one of the leading health insurance companies in the nation. They are providing students access to the Choice Plus PPO network of doctors, hospitals, and medical services. They also offer pharmacy benefits through the United Healthcare Pharmacy network. Pharmacies include HEB, Walmart, CVS, Walgreens and over 100 total locations in the Austin area.
The group policy offers all students the same insurance premium. No health history is required. Spouse / domestic partner and dependent children up to age 26 may be enrolled on the policy when the student enrolls. For dependent children under age 19, pediatric dental and vision is included in the health insurance policy. The policy also includes an Assistance and Evacuation Benefit for international students and domestic student more than 100 miles from their home.
Eligibility for the group policy is registration for 6 hours of ACC coursework. 3 hours must be classroom. 3 hours may be distance learning. Integrated CE classes are considered equal to the credit class for insurance purposes only and count toward insurance eligibility.
The group policy meets Texas law requirements for health insurance and is compliant with the Affordable Care Act. This means preventative services are covered at 100% from network providers.
Student may purchase the coverage for a 12 month period August 22, 2018 – August 21, 2019. They may also purchase coverage for the Fall semester, Spring semester, and Summer semester. Students beginning ACC in the 12 week or second 8-week sessions in the Fall and Spring semesters have an option to enroll in the health insurance. Premium for the coverage period is due at enrollment in the insurance plan. Payment is made directly to the insurance company. Enrollment is through the online portal at www.uhcsr.com/austincc. This web page will be active August 1, 2018. Students must create an account to enroll in the insurance plan.
The network deductible for the insurance is $750 per person, per policy year. The out of pocket maximum in network is $7,150 for the student; $14,300 for the family. Out of network deductibles and out of pocket maximums are higher, the best value is to use the network providers.
Previously with a different insurance company the eligibility requirement was 3 hours. However, that insurance company chose to not offer a competitive renewal so the College sought proposals from other insurance companies. We received this one other offer.

Okay, this is the photo of today, no comb, no apply any hair care products.
Hair is not as smooth as like the result other hair mask can bring me, is like the result i just wash with hair conditioner.

An agreement to transfer ownership of a trademark (or trademarks) in return for a payment.
This five page document contains 6 clauses covering
- assignment
- further assurance
- warranties
- severance
- amendments
- governing law and jurisdiction (including service of process)
A Schedule is included, allowing parties to detail registered trade marks and trade mark applications.
You need this document if you are the owner of a trade mark, looking to sell the trade mark in return for a payment, or if you are looking to purchase a trade mark from the legal owner.
You may also find these contracts of use:
Licence Agreement for Manufacturing Overseas (A134)£47.00 Plus VAT
Who can use this manufacturing licence template? A company wanting to have its products sold overseas through a manufacturing licence. What is this manufacturing licence for? It is for use by a company that manufactures…

Design Agreement (A180)£39.00 Plus VAT
This Design Agreement is for use by an artist, illustrator or graphic designer who is commissioned by a client to prepare designs or artwork. This six page document contains 12 clauses covering definitions and interpretations…
Explanatory Notes
This agreement is used where trademarks are assigned by one party to another party. To be a valid assignment, a trade mark assignment must be in writing and signed by the assignor.
In the United Kingdom, trade mark assignments are registrable transactions under the Trade Marks Act 1994 but there is no statutory requirement to register them. In practice, the assignee will wish to ensure that the transaction is recorded, otherwise it will be ineffective against a third party acquiring a conflicting interest in the mark. Also, if the assignment is not registered within six months of the date of the transaction, the assignee has no right to damages for any infringements occurring in the period from the date of the transaction to the date of registration of the assignment.
Stamp duty is not payable on the assignment of trademarks.
The full name of the Assignor and address should be given at the beginning. If the Assignor is a company, then its full company name, its domicile, registered number and its registered office should be given. The word "Assignor" should not be altered.
The full name of the Assignee and address should be given. If the Assignee is a company, then its full company name, its domicile, registered number and its registered office should be given. The word "Assignee" should not be altered.
This section states that the Assignor is the owner of the registered trademarks listed in Part 1 of the Schedule and the owner of any applications (if there are any) as listed in Part 2 of the Schedule. If there are no applications, then the words in square brackets should be deleted. Further this section states that the Assignor will assign the trademarks upon the basis of the terms set out in the agreement.
This clause contains the provisions confirming that the Assignor will assign the trademarks for the price agreed. The price should be included in the agreement. If there are no applications, the wording in the first set of square brackets in clause 1.1 should be deleted.
Registered trade marks can be assigned as bare registrations (without goodwill) or with goodwill; if no goodwill is being transferred, then the wording in the second set of square brackets should be deleted.
Clause 1.2 confirms that the Assignor has full ownership in respect of the trademarks and that it has the right to transfer them and that the trademarks are not restricted by any charges, mortgages, or other encumbrances. If no trademark applications are being assigned, then the wording in square brackets should be deleted.
Clause 1.3 states that the assignment includes the right for the Assignee to take an action against third parties for any infringement of the trademarks even if the infringement took place before the date of the Agreement. If the assignment of trade marks is without goodwill, the optional words referring to passing-off actions should be omitted in Clause 1.3.1.
Clause 1.3.2 states that the Assignor will provide assistance in the event that the Assignee takes an action against any third parties. If the Assignee pays the Assignor for costs incurred in respect of such assistance, then the wording in square brackets should be retained.
This provision confirms that the Assignor will do any other actions required to ensure that the Assignee becomes the registered owner of the trademarks.
Warranties are given by the Assignor that the trademarks are free from any encumbrances and third party rights and that it has all relevant documentation evidencing its ownership in relation to the registered trademarks and any applications. Further the Assignor warrants that the trademarks are still valid and have not been revoked for non-use. Under current statute, if a proprietor does not use its trademarks for a period of five years, the trademarks can be revoked.
The Assignee should additionally ensure that checks are carried out on the trademarks at the relevant registries prior to acquiring such assets.
If a court states that any clause in the agreement is unenforceable, then such clause will be struck out of the agreement but the rest of the agreement will remain in force.
Any amendments to the agreement can only be made if agreed in writing by both the Assignor and the Assignee.
This clause is self-explanatory.
Clause 6.3 will only be needed if any of the parties are foreign companies. In that case a process agent, situated in England, should be appointed so that claims, writs or other forms of notice can be served within England.

Grades 6 - 10 / Ages 11 - 15.

Reviewed from Uncorrected Proofs
"It was the perfect gesture the Boston patriots made when they threw those chests of tea into the Boston harbour. The perfect gesture!" Papa had slammed his fist down on the heavy wooden table. "The King should know that we cannot, we will not, tolerate taxes on tea or any other goods. If we may not send our elected representatives to the Parliament in Great Britain that makes decisions about our lives, if we are not to be treated like proper British subjects, then, say I, we will no longer be British subjects." He had pounded so hard on the table that the dishes had bounced on the dresser across the room.In this piece of historical fiction which revolves around the American Revolution, Lunn provides a powerful picture of the effects of war on innocent civilians who are caught in the middle of the conflict. Thirteen-year-old motherless Phoebe Olcott is deeply concerned in May of 1775 when her father, Jonathan, announces his intentions to join the Patriots, especially when her beloved cousin Gideon, 17, declares that he will enlist in the Loyalist forces. After her father is killed in one of the revolution's early battles, Phoebe is taken in by Gideon's parents. In the fall of 1777, Phoebe's world is severely shaken when Gideon secretly returns to his community, only to be captured and hanged as a traitorous spy by members of the Patriots' Committee of Public Safety. A distraught Phoebe finds a message from Gideon in the hollow tree, their "mailbox" in more innocent times. While she refuses to take sides in the conflict, Phoebe, out of a sense of loving loyalty to Gideon, decides to honour his message's request that she deliver a coded message to Fort Ticonderoga, a daunting journey of 50 miles through trackless wilderness and mountains. Finally reaching the fort, Phoebe finds it deserted, but there she is befriended by a young man, Jem Morrissay, who invites her to join a group of Loyalists who are making their way to the nearest British fort some 100 miles away in Canada. Among the party, Phoebe discovers Gideon's parents and his younger sister, Anne, who bitterly accuses her of being responsible for Gideon's death. As the Loyalists make their arduous trip northward through rugged, snow covered terrain, they are robbed by soldiers from both sides and encounter measles, then a potentially fatal illness for children. Phoebe's greatest challenge comes when the band of refugees captures a young man whom they believe to be a patriot spy. Fearful that this person will suffer the same fate as her cousin, Phoebe helps him escape, knowing that her action means she will have to complete the journey alone. Despite the trials and sorrows which seem to dog Phoebe's every footstep, Lunn ultimately provides her with a happy ending, and the "Epilogue" will offer a delightful surprise to readers of Lunn's Shadow in Hawthorn Bay.
"If it be necessary," he had finished slowly and unexpectedly softly, "every American who cares for the rights of free men must perforce go to war."
Like the best of historical fiction, Lunn imbeds her plot and theme in unobtrusive historical detail while providing particulars which make the period come alive to all of the reader's senses.
Highly recommended.

Praise be Jesus Christ now and forever!
Do some of you remember all the beautiful old prayers Catholics used to say, like "Angel of God, my Guardian Dear…"? Today, some consider prayers like this to be old-fashioned; but they expressed a person's longings and deep hopes that came from the heart, not the head. They reveal the personal and emotional side of faith—the more intimate language you'd use with someone you love.
St. Paul says he shared the love of God with the Thessalonians "as a nursing mother cares for her children." Imagine—our relationship to God is one of resting peacefully on our mother's breast. Now, there is an image that the Pharisees desperately needed to imitate! They didn't live their faith by resting humbly and peacefully in God, but made a show and a burden of religion.
Jesus hated the fact that the religious leaders "preached but did not practice." We believers sometimes show attitudes towards non-believers or each other. If we show off our "church knowledge", arguments result. Maybe we stick to the letter of the law instead of offering forgiveness, or use our titles (like Father, mother, lector, Eucharistic Minister) to "shut someone up" or win an argument.
Jesus rebukes all of these temptations. "You are all students." Humility is the sign of our calling. With believers or non-believers, at all times we are to hold a spirit of peace and humble gratitude. We must return to Psalm 130: "I have calmed and quieted my soul like a weaned child with its mother…" Tiny babies seek food blindly, but weaned children return willingly to the mother for comfort and love.
May we only walk to God out of our affection and humble desire to be held and loved!
"Being a disciple means constantly ready to bring the love of Jesus to others, and this can happen unexpectedly and in any place on a street, in a city square, during work, on a journey" (Pope Francis). Have a wonderful week and may God bless you and keep you always in His Love!

Joyfully in the Lord,

The crystallization kinetics of the Bi2O3-added MgO–Al2O3–SiO2–TiO2 glass ceramics system produced from industrial waste

In this study, the influence of Bi2O3 on the crystallization kinetics of the MgO–Al2O3–SiO2–TiO2 glass ceramics system produced from industrial waste was investigated. The Bi2O3-added MgO–Al2O3–SiO2–TiO2 glass ceramics systems were prepared by melting method. The crystallization behaviour and crystallization kinetics of a sample with glass ceramic composition were examined. DTA and XRD analysis revealed the crystallization of Ca0.965Mg2Al16O27 cordierite (Mg2Al4Si5O18) and Fe2TiO5 phases. The activation energy for the crystallization of cordierite phase has been evaluated, and the crystallization mechanism has been studied by applying DTA measurements taken at various heating rates. The results indicate that the dominant crystallization mechanism for this system is bulk crystallization dominated by three-dimensional growth. At 2.5, 5 and 10% Bi2O3 addition, the crystallization activation energy was calculated to be 336 ± 4, 218 ± 1 and 170 ± 3 kJ mol−1, and the viscous flow activation energy was measured to be 377 ± 2, 403 ± 7 and 407 ± 21 kJ mol−1, respectively.

LSU will be playing Alabama this week so crack open a case o' soda because you will not be sittin' down much. This game will be good! I can't wait until the game. Oh yeah, I was walking down the hall in my school one day and I saw this guy who was losing a fight so he pulled out his phone and texted all his friends and asked for comebacks. it was hilarious! here is a conversation I had with a kid who was trying to ask a question.
Kid: What is the chemical formula of water?
Me: H2O
Kid:Why do you have to be so smart?
Me: It's fun
Kid: No it's not
Me: How would you know?
