In his brief lifespan as an architect and writer A.W.N. Pugin transformed the British landscape. By the time he died, insane, at the age of forty, he had given the great cities of London and Edinburgh two defining landmarks—“Big Ben,” the clock tower of the Palace of Westminster, and the spire of the church of Tolbooth St. John’s. Pugin had set the pattern for the spires and towers of the Victorian Gothic churches that dominate so many of the smaller British towns. It was largely due to his impassioned advocacy that Gothic became the British national style for nineteenth-century church and civic buildings. He bequeathed his own name to the particular, evocative, Romantic British vistas of monastic settlements and crenellated castles we still describe as “Puginesque.”
Few critics have ever doubted his importance. But defining it precisely has been quite another thing. Difficulties with Pugin stem, first, from the astonishing variety of his work and its differences in scale, from great cathedral complexes to the most intricate detail of church furnishings. Pugin’s creative energy extended to clerical vestments, altar cloths, and jewels. There is also the problem of an often glaring contrast between theory and practice. Pugin argues forcibly for solid structures and excellence of workmanship. William Morris, however, passing Pugin’s Alton Towers in Staffordshire, decried it as “a gim-crack palace,”1 and gim-crack is what many of Pugin’s early buildings are.
Most daunting of all for those who seek to understand him has been the inordinate complexity of the mid- nineteenth-century English Catholic milieu in which Pugin, himself a Catholic convert, flourished. The ardor of the English Catholic revival powered the antiquarianism of his architecture. For the twentieth-century architecture critic Nikolaus Pevsner, from his viewpoint of doctrinaire modernism, Pugin remained (as Rosemary Hill puts it) “this curious man whose importance he sensed but could not, quite, pin down.”
In spite of the outpouring of Pugin scholarship, notably Phoebe Stanton’s from the 1950s onward, and a large-scale Pugin exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London in 1994, the breadth and idiosyncrasy of his achievement, so very much a part of his erratic personality, have caused it to remain elusive up to now. Rosemary Hill’s book is the first modern biography of Pugin, and it is a considerable feat both in its painstaking original research and the way in which Hill deals with architectural history, relating Pugin personally to his buildings, justifying brilliantly her biographical approach.
Hill unravels the influences of his upbringing. Born in 1812, Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin was the cherished only child of parents already on the verge of middle age. His father, Auguste Charles, who claimed—unconvincingly—to be le Comte de Pugin, was an émigré from Paris, a professional illustrator who romanticized his links with pre-Revolutionary aristocratic France. In London he opened a drawing school and worked closely with the architect John Nash, who relied on Pugin père’s esoteric antiquarian knowledge and his unflagging talent for producing persuasive architectural perspective views.
Pugin’s mother, Catherine, was from…

Ford Mustang has one of the most glorified pasts among the various cars in the American History. Ford Mustang has had the greatest Muscle cars of the past, but sadly the goodwill has fallen from where it was once. 2015 Ford Mustang did not do it any good when rumors started spreading up about fake engine sounds. According to the reports, 2015 Ford Mustang with EcoBoost model creates a fake sound of powerful engines through the car speakers. Mustang models have not had a lot of good things to talk about in the recent times and this will only add to the trouble.
The Chevrolet Camaro is one of the direct competitors of Ford Mustang and these models has been around the other’s neck often in the past. Interestingly, Ford Mustang does have a linage, which is presently being handled in the wrong way. The scenario is more so with the new emission rules, which has affected the engines of the Mustang to a great extent. The Muscle cars of the past were fitted with full throated V8 engines compared to the modern day turbocharged four cylinder engine.
Although we can still compare the performance delivered by the cars but this still does not feed the hunger of the roar the Muscle cars used to provide. This is where Ford has played the trick with an Active Noise Control System, designed to eradicate unwanted noise. On the other hand, the system will also amplify the sound of the engine to give the driver an experience like anything.
Now what remains is to see how do the customers take this engine sound amplification system. Most of the major car makers are also expected to keep a track of the events. | <urn:uuid:91d45e02-6bd8-4596-86ca-1be2d4f86b4d> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | http://thenextdigit.com/12460/2015-ford-mustang-fakes-engine-sound-amplification/ | 2018-06-24T22:22:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267867095.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20180624215228-20180624235228-00076.warc.gz | en | 0.975684 | 324 | [

Welcome from the Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost
Binghamton University is committed to transforming lives and changing the world.
We transform lives by offering entrée to academic excellence to students irrespective of means or family background. Almost 30% of our undergraduates are students of color, 28% are eligible for Pell grants, and international students make up 16% of our student body. We not only offer access to highly ranked academic programs and world-class faculty but to talented, curious, high achieving peers. In 2017, we had over 33,000 freshman applications, and the SAT average of the class of 2021 was among the top ten among public universities. Not surprisingly, U.S. News has ranked us among the top fifty public universities for the past 18 years, and we are always featured in the New York Times' "Colleges that Do the Most for the American Dream" (https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/05/25/sunday-review/opinion-pell-table.html)
We continue to find new ways to offer students a life-changing experience. Since 2011, we have hired over 250 tenured and tenure track faculty, growing that group far faster than our student population, decreasing our student-faculty ratio, and offering students access to a wider ranger of faculty expertise. We have also created new programs that open new avenues for Binghamton students. These include our Freshman Research Immersion (https://binghamton.edu/freshman-research-immersion/), our Summer Artists and Scholars Program (https://www.binghamton.edu/undergraduate-research-center/get-involved/funding-your-research/summer-scholars-and-artists-program/), a unique masters degree in health systems, a School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences that matriculated its first class this year (https://www.binghamton.edu/pharmacy-and-pharmaceutical-sciences/), and many more.
Our alumni are a testament to Binghamton University's ability to transform lives. Many who grew up in families of modest means found Binghamton a place that challenged them, offered them a world-class education, and launched them into successful careers. As a result, Binghamton alumni are leaders in law, medicine, technology, finance, academia, government, the arts, and the non-profit world.
Binghamton also changes the world. Alumni like Aaron Mair, president of the Sierra Club; Owen Pell, a partner at White & Case, LLC and chair of the board of the Auschwitz Institute for Peace and Reconciliation; and Yasmin Hurd, a professor at Mount Sinai Scool of Medicine and leading addiction researcher, are doing it every day, as are thousands of their peers.
Binghamton faculty also change the world through teaching and mentoring our students as well as through their path-breaking research, whether it's developing biomedical sensors or algorithms that use tweets to predict behavior, creating the next generation battery or a radioactive bandage, discovering ways to make data centers more energy efficient or to personalize drug delivery, or helping us understand how to predict and prevent mass atrocities or how gender has shaped and continues to shape our culture and politics.
Binghamton's strength in research is rooted in our willingness to be different. In an academic world too often constrained by disciplines and departments, we have long been committed to interdisciplinary experimentation. From our renowned Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies and Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities to our Center for Small Scale Systems Integration and Packaging and Developmental Exposure Alcohol Research Center, Bingahmton faculty have collaborated with colleagues from different departments and schools—as well as from other universities—to produce pathbreaking research. Building on this rich history, we recently established five Transdisciplinary Areas of Excellence (http://www.binghamton.edu/tae/) that bring faculty together from a wide variety of disciplines to explore such critical issues as energy, health science, citizenship and human rights, sustainability, and material and visual culture. This bold approach has been so successful that we are in the process of creating a sixth Transdisciplinary Area of Excellence (http://www.binghamton.edu/inside/index.php/inside/story/requests-for-proposals-for-sixth-transdisciplinary-area-of-excellence).
We haven't achieved excellence by accident. Since our inception more than 70 years ago, we have planned carefully, remained true to our plans, and linked planning and budgeting. Under the leadership of President Harvey Stenger, we developed our Road Map Strategic Plan in 2012 through a process that involved widespread participation. The Road Map has guided resource allocation, allowed us to develop innovative programs such as our new School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, and facilitated growth with quality. Through our Road Map Renewal process, a group of over 200 faculty, staff, students, and alumni identified four areas—data science, presidential diversity doctoral fellowships, expansion of our health sciences core, and new college of nursing and health sciences—as areas for investment in the coming years (https://www.binghamton.edu/president/road-map/index.html).
I invite you to explore the Academic Affairs web site. There, you will find a wealth of information on the programs and people that make Binghamton University a place that transforms lives and changes the world. | <urn:uuid:fecaf75c-6da7-4266-b542-80e2f3b5c38f> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://www.binghamton.edu/academics/provost/ | 2018-06-24T22:10:11Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267867095.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20180624215228-20180624235228-00076.warc.gz | en | 0.934645 | 1,128 | [

Battle Mountain in north central Nevada is an out of the way place halfway between Reno and Salt Lake City. Home to about 3,700 people, the city’s biggest industry is gold mining. With gold prices climbing in recent years, the town’s done well for itself between mining and legalized gambling. It also got lucky in a game of cosmic roulette on August 21, when a large fireball was observed southwest of town that turned night into day. Sonic booms were heard for miles around and the chance for finding meteorites looked good.
Using weather radar data, meteorite hunters were able to pinpoint locations to begin searching for precious space rocks. Now they’re picking up the pieces. On September 1 Moni Waiblinger and Bob Verish found the first meteorite from the fall, a stony variety weighing 19.25 grams (3/4 ounce) that showed a mixed texture of metal and stone typical of an H-chondrite, the most common type of meteorite known. H stands for “high metal”. Slice one open and numerous bits of iron-nickel give these stones a distinctive metallic shimmer when held to the light.
While the meteorite may or may not be rare – that depends on a chemical analysis – it’s a very exciting find for Bob and Moni, since it’s the first ever observed Nevada meteorite fall to be recovered. There are plenty of Nevada meteorites known, but all were found long after they fell. If someone witnessed them, we don’t have records. Some of the more poetically-named Nevada meteorite discoveries over the years include Beer Bottle Pass found in 1999, Jungo 001 in 2007 and Starvation Flat in 2002. By convention, meteorites are named after nearby towns or geographic features. With the fewest cities in the U.S., it’s no surprise geography rules when it comes to naming Nevada space rocks.
More hunters have joined or are joining the search as I write this, and more meteorites have been found. At the moment, the count stands at about 8. The biggest rock recovered to date was a 954 gram beast (2.1 lbs) acquired by ace meteorite hunter Robert Ward. He gave instructions and showed photos of meteorites to an individual who witnessed the fall. That person went out that very night with a flashlight and found the meteorite within the hour! Ward has since found a couple other specimens on his own as have several other hunters now in the area. More are there waiting to be picked up by those with good eyes, lots of patience and a good pair of hiking boots.
If you’re interested in joining the hunt and want to plan exactly where to go based on the radar data, head over to Galactic Analytics and start up a subscription. Or you could drive to Battle Mountain and hang out at the local eatery, where you’re likely to spot a bunch of overly tanned, gritty-looking folks wearing big smiles. The black rocks they carefully remove from bags and treat like celebrities are a dead giveaway you’ve run into the right crowd.
UPDATE 9/11/12: The meteorite has just been officially classified as a moderately shocked (from previous impacts) L6 chondrite. “L” stands for low-metal; L chondrites contain 20-23% iron with 1-10% of that as visible iron-nickel metal flecks. H chondrites contain 25-30% iron with 15-19% visible iron-nickel. | <urn:uuid:5bd9abf9-3630-431f-bc96-04d2fc3b3364> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | http://astrobob.areavoices.com/2012/09/10/meteorites-fall-on-battle-mountain-nevada/ | 2018-06-21T00:34:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267863980.55/warc/CC-MAIN-20180621001211-20180621021211-00436.warc.gz | en | 0.959706 | 734 | [

I have been painting quite a bit the past few days but have nothing to show for my progress. I think the problem lies in my current attention span. I am currently painting my 28mm SYW Bavarians for the Bring you own Battalion (BYB) game at the SYW convention in March. I have been painting fusiliers assembly line approach so I have 12 fusiliers with the flesh painted and basic colors blocked in but none finished. The remainder of my 28mm Crusader Bavarians arrived two days ago so now I have 48 fusiliers with command, 8 grenadiers and a 3 lb. cannon with 4 crew. Also in the order were the Governor and the Governor's Daughter miniatures from Black Scorpion. I started painting the Governor and his daughter and am now in the "what color should I paint there outfits" holding pattern, plus had a question posted on TMP about how to paint make-up. So I started working on 10mm dragoons. In 10mm my squadrons will be 6 figs per stand, so I have 3 painted up as Tradgardland inspired uniforms but have run across a strange issue with the mini, they seem to have bed rolls or sashes around their shoulders. I will try and post a picture tomorrow, I am not sure what they are or how they should be painted. So, there it is a great amount of painting with nothing to show. Oh well I will try and get some things finished and posted this weekend.
On another note, I have the Cavenderian diplomats finished and in envelopes ready to be mailed out this Saturday and Nic from Eureka sent me 6 more so I should be starting on them by next week. I have the new diplomats names and destinations but wish to wait until they are complete to post them. That is the current state of affairs here in Cavenderia, hope everyone else is enjoying painting this winter as much as me. | <urn:uuid:54e497e9-b0ac-494b-8902-448d8989115b> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | http://cavenderia.blogspot.com/2009/01/painting-painting-everywhere-and-not.html | 2018-06-21T00:21:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267863980.55/warc/CC-MAIN-20180621001211-20180621021211-00436.warc.gz | en | 0.978368 | 396 | [

Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal attacked the Narendra Modi government at the Centre for repeatedly using the office of the lieutenant governor of Delhi to put hurdles in the functioning of his elected government. Copying a dialogue from My Name is Khan, Kejriwal said, “I am the elected chief minister of Delhi and I am not a terrorist”.
The Guest Teachers’ Regularization Bill, which was subsequently passed by the house, with the intent to regularize the services of nearly 15,000 teachers who have been teaching in Delhi government schools on daily wages so far was the latest bone of contention between the Delhi government and the lieutenant General.
During the course of the discussion, Kejriwal attacked the Centre for blocking various legislative proposals of his government. His deputy, Manish Sisodia also quoted him as saying that “the country does not run through bureaucracy, it is run by democracy”.
The one-day special session of the Delhi assembly had been called to pass the Bill for regularising the services of the guest teachers. However, as in the past, the passage of this Bill too may faces hurdles as lieutenant governor Anil Baijal has already declared that it is not in accordance with the constitutional scheme of governance.
Sisodia had batted for giving the guest teachers a better deal, saying they had played a crucial role in reforming the education system. “If the guest teachers who are currently teaching in our schools were to be replaced with fresh candidates, DoE would suffer quite a setback to our education reform process and we would need to re-start the process from scratch,” he had said. | <urn:uuid:3ad44a68-0f1c-437c-821d-795fe98923e6> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | http://www.theasianconnectionsnewspaper.com/i-am-the-elected-chief-minister-of-delhi-and-i-am-not-a-terrorist/ | 2018-06-22T01:46:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267864337.41/warc/CC-MAIN-20180622010629-20180622030629-00116.warc.gz | en | 0.985036 | 332 | [

The Greenport/Southold/Mattituck high school football team has a new head coach, and it hasn’t lost its old one.
Mike Buck, a former NFL quarterback who coached Bishop McGann-Mercy last year, has taken over the Porters’ top coaching job. Meanwhile, his predecessor, Jack Martilotta, will remain on the coaching staff as an assistant. The new coaching arrangement was outlined by Greenport’s athletic director, Jim Caliendo, in a letter to parents of players.
Buck, who played for Sayville High School and the University of Maine, was drafted in the sixth round of the National Football League draft by the New Orleans Saints in 1990. He later played for the Saints as well as the Arizona Cardinals and the Miami Dolphins.
Last year, in his first and only season at McGann-Mercy, Buck coached the Monarchs into the playoffs. They lost in a Suffolk County Division IV qualifying-round game to Elwood/John Glenn and went 4-5. In May, McGann-Mercy announced that the coach Buck had replaced at the Riverhead school, Jeff Doroski, would return to his former post as head coach. Doroski had coached the Monarchs for three years, from 2011 to 2013.
In the letter to the parents, Caliendo took note of Buck’s “impressive” résumé, and indicated that Martilotta played a role in bringing Buck to Greenport.
“Coach Martilotta was instrumental in recommending Mr. Buck for this job,” Caliendo wrote. “This shows Coach Martilotta’s love and dedication to the Greenport-Southold-Mattituck football family. We are all appreciative of Jack Martilotta’s drive to have our football program succeed.”
During the five years in which he coached the Porters, Martilotta twice took them to the playoffs. Because of a shortage of players, the Porters did not play their final two scheduled regular-season games last year, finishing with a 2-6 record. The Porters went 14-28 under Martilotta.
Martilotta is being retained as one of the assistant coaches, the others being John Tramontana, Timothy McArdle and Greg Tulley.
The undated letter did not indicate the reason for the coaching change.
Caliendo, Buck and Martilotta did not immediately return phone calls. | <urn:uuid:9faef0fc-fceb-41d1-bab9-c2e394f6e38e> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://suffolktimes.timesreview.com/2015/06/59937/football-porters-get-a-new-coach-and-keep-an-old-one/ | 2018-06-22T01:49:46Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267864337.41/warc/CC-MAIN-20180622010629-20180622030629-00116.warc.gz | en | 0.977608 | 519 | [

The outline of the special lecture presented by the author at the 20th Annual Meeting of the Japan Vitamin Society, which consists of the studies on the natural occurence, physicochemical properties, metabolic functions and action mechanism of vitamin B_<12> coenzyme and its related compounds carried out by the author and his coworkers.
When weanling rats were fed for 7 days on a mild choline-deficient diet, their kidney increased in size and weight and congested. The concentration of both cephalin and lecithin has decreased in kidney of deficient animals while in liver, in contrast to lecithin which has decreased in deficient animals, cephalin has increased significantly in comparison with that in control animals. When the feeding was continued for additional one month they were recovered from deficient symptoms and the difference of phospholipids pattern between the deficient and normal rats have disappeared. On a more severe deficient diet, rats were suffered from a severe hemorrhagic degeneration in kidney even only after 5 days of feeding. Many of them lost their weight and were moribund. The renal changes were characterized grossly by an increase in size, weight and hemorrhagic discoloration. In this case cephalin and lecithin have a lower concentration in both kidney and liver than normal animals. When the red cells were tested for osmotic fragility using hypotonic saline solution, it was found that those of deficient animals were more fragile and were hemolyzed more easily than those of control animals.
The effects of vitamin B_6 on blood coagulation and fibrinolytic activity were investigated. In vivo, PAL-P prolonged whole blood clotting time and plasma recalcification time and activated fibrinolysis, while PAM-P or PIN showed no such effects, except that PAM-P slightly prolonged whole blood clotting time. Also in vitro, PAL-P prolonged plasma recalcification time and had the antithrombin activity, inhibiting the thrombin fibrinogen reaction, while PAL, PAM-P, PAM, PIN-P and PIN did not show such effects. Cocarboxylase and ATP did not prolong plasma recalcification time in vitro. PAL-P inhibited the hydrolysis of p-toluene sulfonylarginine methyl ester by thrombin and increased plasma antithrombin activity. Using thromboelastogram of citrated plasma, it was observed that PAL-P in low concentration increased the effect of ε-aminocaproic acid on the fibrinolytic system produced by streptokinase. These effects of PAL-P do not seem physiological ones of vitamin B_6,but pharmacological.
It was found that the percentage recovery of O, S-bis (ethoxycarbonyl) thiamine (DCET) was decreased by the presence of ascorbic acid (AsA) when DCET was determined by the thiochrome method after preliminary treatment with alkali. This alkali-method was also interfered by hydroquinone and other compounds susceptible to oxidation. An explanation is proposed for the interference by AsA that DCET is converted by the alkali-treatment into thiochrome reaction-positive compounds, which are successively oxidized to thiamine disulfide (TDS) by the presence of AsA. This was supported by the fact that TDS was detected in the reaction mixture when DCET was treated with alkali in the presence of AsA. DCET can be determined without any interference when cysteine is preliminarily added before the alkali treatment to the sample solution containing DCET and AsA. Other methods for the determination of DCET in the presence of AsA are discussed.
Experiments were made on the stabilities of thiamine (B_1) and six B_1-derivatives in ascorbic acid (AsA) solution (50 mg/ml) at pH 4.0,45 and 100℃ in comparison with those in acetic acid solution of the equimolar concentration to the AsA solution at the same pH. Stabilities of B_1 and O-ethoxycarbonylthiamine (OCET) in the AsA solution were similar to those in the acetate buffer. S-Ethoxycarbonylthiamine (CET) was converted into OCET and B_1 both in the acetate buffer and in the AsA solution, and the formation of B_1 was accelerated by AsA. Main product from O, S-bis (ethoxycarbonyl) thiamine (DCET) in the AsA solution was OCET. These findings suggest that CET and DCET are decomposed by AsA mainly through the cleavage of S-ethoxycarbonyl ester linkage. This was supported by the easy formation of O-butoxycarbonylthiamine from S-ethoxycarbonyl-O-butoxycarbonyl-thiamine in the presence of AsA. Thiamine disulfide (TDS) and thiamine propyldisulfide (TPD) were converted to B_1 by AsA, where TDS was less stable than TPD.
Several derivatives of 2-(3-hydroxy-5-hydroxymethyl-2-methylpyridyl-4)-tetrahydro-1,3-thiazine-4-carboxylic acid (PAL-HCySH) and 2-(3-hydroxy-2-methyl-5-phosphoryloxymethyl-pyridyl-4)-tetrahydro-1,3-thiazine-4-carboxylic acid (PAL-P-HCySH), which have potential vitamin B_6 activity, were synthesized. Alkylesters of PAL-HCySH, and PAL-P-HCySH were prepared in 12-70% yield by the reactions of pyridoxal or pyridoxal phosphate with alkyl DL-homocysteinates which were obtained from the ring-cleavage of DL-homocysteine thiolactone-HCl with sodium alcoxides in the corresponding alcohols. The acetylations of methyl 2-(3-hydroxy-5-hydroxymethyl-2-methylpyridyl-4)-tetrahydro-1,3-thiazine-4-carboxylate (PAL-HCySOMe) with acetic anhydride were also investigated. The alcoholic O-acylates (acetate, benzoate, butyrate, and nicotinate) of PAL-HCySH were prepared by the condensation of pyridoxal-5-acylates with DL-homocysteine in high yield. Further, the spectrophotometric studies of the stabilities and dissociations of PAL-HCySOMe, 2-(5-acetoxymethyl-3-hydroxy-2-methylpyridyl-4)-tetrahydro-1,3-thiazine-4-carboxylic acid (PAL-5-Ac-HCySH) and methyl 2-(5-acetoxymethyl-3-hydroxy-2-methylpyridyl-4)-tetrahydro-1,3-thiazine-4-carboxylate (PAL-5-Ac-HCySOMe) were carried out to compare with those of PAL-HCySH.
A microautoradiographic detection of the injected CoQ_7 in animals has been performed. Two to five mμc/g body weight of ^<14>C-CoQ_7 was administered intraperitoneally in a rat and six mice. The animals were sacrificed at the 24th hour after injection and all organs and tissues were excised and embedded in paraffin as usual. Sliced tissue sections were covered with Sakura NR-M2 nuclear track emulsion and after 4 weeks' exposure they were developed in D-19. Autoradiographic grains were observed mostly in the intestinal contents, and much in the liver parenchymal cells, intestinal epithelium, various exocrine organs (salivary gland and pancreas) and fat tissues. After considering those results, it may be given as a conclusion that the possible route of the absorbed CoQ_7 from the peritoneal cavity will be as follows : from circulation it first goes into the cytoplasma of the liver parenchymal cells, is secreted out with bile and most of them will be discharged with feces. However, some of them will be reabsorbed through intestinal walls into the portal system. A part of the CoQ_7 in the systemic circulations will also be secreted from many exocrine glands such as pancreas and salivary glands. It also has an affinity to bind with fat substances. There is no preferential localization in the endocrine systems such as pancreatic islets. | <urn:uuid:f29aa705-a064-44d2-bfd9-2e211dcc5a90> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/browse/vso/37/6/_contents/-char/ja | 2018-06-22T01:26:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267864337.41/warc/CC-MAIN-20180622010629-20180622030629-00116.warc.gz | en | 0.963837 | 1,912 | [

Data Compression in Cloud Hosting
The compression algorithm that we work with on the cloud hosting platform where your new cloud hosting account will be created is known as LZ4 and it is used by the revolutionary ZFS file system which powers the platform. The algorithm is greater than the ones other file systems use because its compression ratio is much higher and it processes data significantly quicker. The speed is most noticeable when content is being uncompressed since this happens faster than info can be read from a hard disk. Consequently, LZ4 improves the performance of any website located on a server which uses the algorithm. We take full advantage of LZ4 in one more way - its speed and compression ratio let us produce multiple daily backup copies of the full content of all accounts and store them for thirty days. Not only do the backup copies take less space, but their generation won't slow the servers down like it often happens with other file systems. | <urn:uuid:eff61608-a8b1-42fb-bb37-4e65d94b1a59> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://americanhostland.com/glossary/data-compression/ | 2018-06-23T00:13:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267864848.47/warc/CC-MAIN-20180623000334-20180623020334-00436.warc.gz | en | 0.965948 | 188 | [

Rabindranath Tagore (Listeni/rəˈbindrəˈnɑːt ˈtɑːɡɔːr/; Bengali pronunciation: [robind̪ro nat̪ʰ ʈʰakur]), also written Ravīndranātha Thākura (7 May 1861 – 7 August 1941), sobriquet Gurudev, was a Bengali polymath who reshaped Bengali literature and music, as well as Indian art with Contextual Modernism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Author of Gitanjali and its "profoundly sensitive, fresh and beautiful verse", he became the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913. In translation his poetry was viewed as spiritual and mercurial; however, his "elegant prose and magical poetry" remain largely unknown outside Bengal. Sometimes referred to as "the Bard of Bengal", Tagore introduced new prose and verse forms and the use of colloquial language into Bengali literature, thereby freeing it from traditional models based on classical Sanskrit. He was highly influential in introducing the best of Indian culture to the West and vice versa, and he is generally regarded as the outstanding creative artist of the modern Indian subcontinent. A Pirali Brahmin from Calcutta with ancestral gentry roots in Jessore, Tagore wrote poetry as an eight-year-old. At the age of sixteen, he released his first substantial poems under the pseudonym Bhānusiṃha ("Sun Lion"), which were seized upon by literary authorities as long-lost classics. By 1877 he graduated to his first short stories and dramas, published under his real name. As a humanist, universalist internationalist, and ardent anti-nationalist he denounced the British Raj and advocated independence from Britain. As an exponent of the Bengal Renaissance, he advanced a vast canon that comprised paintings, sketches and doodles, hundreds of texts, and some two thousand songs; his legacy endures also in the institution he founded, Visva-Bharati University. Tagore modernised Bengali art by spurning rigid classical forms and resisting linguistic strictures. His novels, stories, songs, dance-dramas, and essays spoke to topics political and personal. Gitanjali (Song Offerings), Gora (Fair-Faced) and Ghare-Baire (The Home and the World) are his best-known works, and his verse, short stories, and novels were acclaimed—or panned—for their lyricism, colloquialism, naturalism, and unnatural contemplation. His compositions were chosen by two nations as national anthems: India's Jana Gana Mana and Bangladesh's Amar Shonar Bangla. Some sources state that Sri Lanka's National Anthem was written by Tagore whilst others state it was inspired by the work of Tagore. The youngest of thirteen surviving children, Tagore (nicknamed "Rabi") was born in the Jorasanko mansion in Calcutta to parents Debendranath Tagore (1817–1905) and Sarada Devi (1830–1875).
The last two days a storm has been raging, similar to the description in my song—Jhauro jhauro borishe baridhara, a hapless, homeless man drenched from top to toe standing on the roof of his steamer [...] the last two days I have been singing this song over and over [...] as a result the pelting sound of the intense rain, the wail of the wind, the sound of the heaving Gorai [R]iver, have assumed a fresh life and found a new language and I have felt like a major actor in this new musical drama unfolding before me.
(Letter to Indira Devi)
Tagore was raised mostly by servants; his mother had died in his early childhood and his father travelled widely. Tagore family was at the forefront of the Bengal renaissance. They hosted the publication of literary magazines; theatre and recitals of Bengali and Western classical music featured there regularly. Tagore's oldest brother Dwijendranath was a philosopher and poet. Another brother, Satyendranath, was the first Indian appointed to the elite and formerly all-European Indian Civil Service. Yet another brother, Jyotirindranath, was a musician, composer, and playwright. His sister Swarnakumari became a novelist. Jyotirindranath's wife Kadambari, slightly older than Tagore, was a dear friend and powerful influence. Her abrupt suicide in 1884, soon after he married, left him for years profoundly distraught. Tagore largely avoided classroom schooling and preferred to roam the manor or nearby Bolpur and Panihati, idylls which the family visited. His brother Hemendranath tutored and physically conditioned him—by having him swim the Ganges or trek through hills, by gymnastics, and by practising judo and wrestling. He learned to draw, anatomy, geography and history, literature, mathematics, Sanskrit, and English—his least favourite subject. Tagore loathed formal education—his scholarly travails at the local Presidency College spanned a single day. Years later he held that proper teaching does not explain things; proper teaching stokes curiosity. After his upanayan (coming-of-age) rite at age eleven, Tagore and his father left Calcutta in February 1873 to tour India for several months, visiting his father's Santiniketan estate and Amritsar before reaching the Himalayan hill station of Dalhousie. There, Tagore read biographies, studied history, astronomy, modern science, and Sanskrit, and examined the classical poetry of Kālidāsa. Tagore returned to Jorosanko and completed a set of major works by 1877, one of them a long poem in the Maithili style of Vidyapati. As a joke, he claimed that these were the lost works of (what he claimed was) a newly discovered 17th century Vaiṣṇava poet Bhānusiṃha. Regional experts accepted them as the lost works of Bhānusiṃha. He debuted in the short-story genre in Bengali with "Bhikharini" ("The Beggar Woman"). Published in the same year, Sandhya Sangit (1882) includes the poem "Nirjharer Swapnabhanga" ("The Rousing of the Waterfall"). | <urn:uuid:12c1544c-efa8-4dcb-98fd-6e94394fe15d> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://awakethegeniuswithin.blogspot.com/2016/04/super-humans-rabindranath-tagore.html | 2018-06-24T01:33:57Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267865995.86/warc/CC-MAIN-20180624005242-20180624025242-00116.warc.gz | en | 0.971508 | 1,375 | [

Crawl! fanzine #5 (Monsters!) is written by Reverend Dak, Shane Clements, Sean Ellis, Jeff Rients, Jeremy Deram, Brad Littman, and Colin Chapman. Crawl! is published by Straycouches Press.
In this issue we have:
Monsters with Class
Modify your monsters by giving them class levels, similar to those enjoyed by the PCs. This article, by Reverend Dak, offers judges who care about those sorts of things an easy way to create versions of classed monsters whose class abilities roughly parallel those of the PCs. The math involved is easier than, say, Pathfinder, but I prefer to simply make those decisions on the basis of what feels right. If you want more guidance, this article is for you.
Orc: A Monstrous Class
Shane Clements offers a Dungeon Crawl Classics orc class that appears to be based of the 3rd-edition era Dungeons & Dragons orc (although the illustration is pure 1st Edition AD&D!). This class would be easily adaptable to any sort of barbaric humanoid...including human berserkers (if you ditch the infravision).
Quick Monster Stats
Originally published at People Them With Monsters, Jeremy Deram offers a quick "cheat sheet" for creating your own monster stats. Again, this article can help give the prospective judge some guidance.
Consider the Greenskins
Sean Ellis provides alternative versions of goblin-type humanoids.
Quickie Wandering Monster Tables
This article, by Jeff Rients, is exactly what it says on the tin. The charts are provided for up to five dungeon levels, effectively ranking the monsters in the Cyclopedia of Creatures roughly by power level.
Fung-eye and Stonecrawler
Two original monsters by Brad Littman, one of which is clearly inspired by Jim Henson's Labyrinth, and the other by the moving stones of Death Valley in California.
Hounds From Hell
Colin Chapman offers the blood hound and the gloom hound.
The nicest thing about the monsters offered by Brad and Colin are that, to me at least, it is immediately possible to see how they could be used in an adventure or a campaign milieu. | <urn:uuid:329cd75f-5245-4aaa-935a-c544aa48a6e4> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | http://dcctreasures.blogspot.com/2016/08/crawl-fanzine-5.html | 2018-06-24T23:59:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267867304.92/warc/CC-MAIN-20180624234721-20180625014721-00436.warc.gz | en | 0.926858 | 458 | [

Debt Doesn’t Matter
After a baseball game one night, Yogi Berra was asked into how many pieces he wanted his pizza cut. He said,”Four. I don’t think I can eat eight.” Miller and Modigliani hypothesized that the amount of debt versus equity has no relevance to the value of the firm. Simply speaking: debt doesn’t matter. No matter how you cut the capital pie, the size of the pie (i.e., firm value) does not change by making the debt piece bigger (i.e., leveraging the firm).
Although the perfect capital market assumption, which is basic to this argument, is a bit of a stumbling block, the irrelevance theory of debt has a certain charm and plausible logic. The value of the firm is determined by the market value of the free cash flows generated by the assets, and the financing shenanigans of wall street and corporate “do-gooders” just do not matter.
To the extent that leverage increases the returns to the shareholders, the increased risks associated with greater debt reduce the value of the returns to shareholders commensurately; thus, the size of the pie does not change.
Debt doesn’t matter.

Barbara Bestor fears no color. The Los Angeles–based architect and designer has reimagined dozens of homes and businesses in bright strokes. And when a client gives her free rein, her palette is particularly fearless.
Photography: Lisa Romerein1 of 7
Let Cabinets Shine
Barbara was hired to renovate this home for a family of four in L.A.’s Los Feliz neighborhood.
On the second-floor landing, Barbara Bestor turned a nondescript wooden built-in into a focal point by painting it a gleaming sunny yellow. "A shiny finish makes a piece pop out, adding character to the room," she says. To keep glossy colors from looking "candy coated," as Bestor puts it, she recommends painting by hand. "When high-gloss colors are rolled or sprayed, they can look lumpy or manufactured. You should see the human hand in it, the evidence of the bristles." (You'll need to apply several coats.)

Use Tile in Unexpected Spots
In the living room, Bestor ripped out the traditional wood paneling and lined the fireplace with a glossy blue tile. The expanse of tile looks modern and adds texture, and in combination with the teal walls, it "creates a kind of nice underwater experience" in the low-light room, says Bestor. A word to the wise: When using a strong paint color like this, you want the walls to be perfectly smooth, without visible bumps or ridges. (So hire someone if you're not sure you're up to the task.) "An irregular finish might give you a woozy feeling," she says.

Go Graphic with the Flooring
Bright Nicaraguan-tile floors have become a Bestor staple, whether she's working on a private residence or on a coffeehouse. "The tiles have the same traditional craftsmanship as Moroccan ones but are more affordable and have customizable patterns," says Bestor, who used them in two of the home's bathrooms. She also likes the timeless feel of the tiles' clean geometry. "I always think about materials, and I don't install something that someone may want to rip out later," she says.

Create Some Breathers
In the kitchen, where the family spends much of its time, Bestor used dark wood and graphite gray paint to give the eye a rest from the brighter colors in other rooms. She used this deep gray -- a nod to the house's old New England-style exterior -- on window trim throughout the house to keep the overall look cohesive.

Mix Traditional Shapes with Bold Paint
In the second-floor bathroom, Bestor had a vanity custom-made to incorporate details from the rest of the home's cabinetry, and then she modernized it with cornflower-blue paint. "In older houses, I like to use traditional details but recontextualize them," she says. Plus, "I like how this cabinet echoes the color pop from the floor."

Experiment in Small Ways
Bestor reserved the most daring colors for small spaces, such as this butler's pantry painted yellow. Because this is a transitional space, connecting the living room with the den, Bestor used it as a visual guide: The intense color peeking out from around a door frame leads the eye into the next room.

Adding a bit of color to your decor doesn't have to mean going overboard. Add subtle pops of color to neutral, low-key rooms and furniture with bright accent pieces, like throw pillows, lamps, and fun artwork. This will help liven up the room without making it too loud. | <urn:uuid:24c9b675-2284-43f1-bca0-eeff168ce227> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://www.marthastewart.com/921831/decorating-bright-colors?czone=home/kitchen-cnt/inspiration-and-projects | 2018-06-25T00:37:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267867304.92/warc/CC-MAIN-20180624234721-20180625014721-00436.warc.gz | en | 0.941551 | 833 | [

Chiefs beat the Oakland Raiders 26-15 last week, and it feels like we are getting back into the flow of things. Chiefs are still 1st in the division, but, next week, we host the Los Angeles Chargers for a 1st place showdown.
Browsing: Charcandrick West
The Chiefs didn’t go down without a fight, and there was still a chance to win with a minute left in the game. We need to put the past behind us and bounce back. The Chiefs head to Oakland Thursday night and battle against the 2-4 Raiders.
We are 5-0 WHAT?!?! Yes, it’s mind blowing watching how incredible the Chiefs are each week. We ARE the only undefeated team in the NFL right now. We beat the Houston Texans last week 42 – 34, Coming off this win, we head up east to play against the Pittsburgh Steelers, who are 3 – 2 on Sunday, October 15th at Heinz Stadium.

Now a days, Intranet Sites are available in all companies which think of implementing PLM. They already invested in intranet to share company announcement, events and so on. To reduce time to market for their product they think of implementing PLM. In many organizations which have both I have observed some gaps.
Let us talk about what is Intranet? In layman’s language, it is nothing but a website which can be accessed which organization network only or if possible outside organization network with some secured access control. Normally intranet sites are used for announcement, some sort of publishing method, sub-sites for departments, individual sites and so on. Intranet sites go more close to public websites and give similar features like searching content, publishing photos etc. If it is SharePoint site, then it may offer much more but less than a PLM tool. More or less, it is a communication or collaboration medium or content management system like Drupal or SharePoint.
Now if we think of a PLM tool, ideally we do not have similarities. But it you think deep, there are 2 common points. Those are
PLM Web Client can be used to collaborate and view information instantaneously over the browser.
Web Client as name suggest are web based and security is same as intranet, internal or secured.
Now most of the organization which have both the application. They may use single sign-on facility. But they are rarely integrated. PLM talks about collaboration. Intranet provides a platform for information sharing which is nothing but collaboration.
Now if we integrate both what can be achieved? Or what is that I expect as output of integration?
Part/Object Search: Intranet sites provide search facility, PLM Tools provide search facility. Then why not to make PLM Object Search available on intranet site?
Task Integration: All PLM Tools provide task notification through emails or their UIs. If companies are using intranet site, they normally provide outlook like facilities, so why not to provide a widget in intranet site which can show me my task related to my project in PLM. Those tasks might be of just notification or approval or any thing which is listed against my name.
Discussions: SharePoint sites or CMSs offer discussion facility. Now if give a facility to link a PLM Object and start a discussion on intranet, it can increase collaboration level to next level and decisions can be taken much faster.
Document Management in SharePoint: PLM performance can be improved by using SharePoint for document management and using URLs to document in PLM as reference or specification documents. This can reduce load on PLM file server. SharePoint provides workflows hence document approval can be done in SharePoint and even office integration works much better with SharePoint.
These are some of my thought on PLM and Intranet/CMS integration. Till date I tried to find some readily available tools but I could not find a satisfactory results. If you know anything just leave a comment to this post. if anyone is interested to develop something let me know. | <urn:uuid:8bad8753-6399-4693-af68-14bcc15df45f> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://agkulkarni.wordpress.com/2011/08/ | 2018-06-18T01:33:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267859923.59/warc/CC-MAIN-20180618012148-20180618032148-00476.warc.gz | en | 0.937244 | 640 | [

|Title||[Yonhap News] Jin-Myeong Kim[Novel]: “There is no Future for a People who have Forgotten about Revenge”|
Jin-Myeong Kim: “There is no Future for a People who have Forgotten about Revenge”
The publication of the novel, “Prediction,” which deals with the KAL007 shooting incident
Jin-Myeong Kim (Provided by Saeum)
Moon goes to meet Mikhail Gorbachev, General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, receives an apology regarding the KAL007 shooting incident, and asks Gorbachev whether he has any thoughts of proclaiming the end of Communism. Moon then goes to Pyeongyang and tells North Korea Premier Kim Il-Sung to let go of his Juche Ideology. Rev. Sun Myung Moon, the founder of the Unification Church, who met with Gorbachev and Kim Il-Sung in his lifetime, is a model of peace through strength.
“I wanted to say that we should not forget about revenge. We have been invaded by Japan 770 times. Korea is going forth as a society that distances herself far from revenge. If we only continue to avoid fighting and revenge, we will absolutely not be able to protect ourselves. Even at the slightest provocation a Cold War will start again, and if we only remain scared, there is absolutely no way we can protect our future.”
Novelist Jin-Myeong Kim (age 59) gave a grim tale. His new novel, “Prediction” (Saeum) tells of the journey of two men who exacted revenge on the Soviet Union for shooting down the KAL007 for flying through Soviet prohibited airspace in 1983. One of the men seeks revenge through arms, while the other seeks revenge through ideology.
“Every person can exact revenge through their own methods. In the end, it’s a mental problem. We must not become a people who forgets about revenge.”
The novel begins with an unidentified aircraft entering Soviet prohibited airspace caught on radar through the U.S. Air Force’s secret base. The aircraft is immediately confirmed to not be a reconnaissance aircraft, but a Korean civilian aircraft. However, the U.S. Air Force does not send any sort of warning signals to this civilian aircraft from an allied nation that is flying towards a “Level 1 Danger Zone.”
The Far Eastern Air Defense Command of the Soviet Union surely understood this aircraft to not be just an average American reconnaissance aircraft. However, there was still the suspicion that it was a reconnaissance flight done in disguise through a civilian aircraft. Pilot Genadi Osipovich was flying in line with the aircraft, but after receiving the order to shoot it down, he launched two rounds of missiles on the “enemy plane” as it suddenly increased its altitude and slowed down.
With the mystery surrounding the KAL007 aircraft that deviated from its original course and entered deep into Soviet prohibited airspace, the author criticizes the neighboring powers around Korea who used this incident as a political maneuver. Even after receiving the report of a Korean passenger plane shot down, Prime Minister of Japan, Nakasone, afraid that Japan’s monitoring of the Soviet Union would be revealed, kept his mouth shut. With the possibility of reelection unclear, this incident was favorable to U.S. President Reagan in sparking the worldwide consensus against Communism.
In Korean broadcasts, it was reported that some “third party” nation shot down the KAL007 instead of the Soviet Union. This report was presented after the news that then-President Doo-Hwan Chun cleaned a village with a broom.
“These powerful nations distorted the KAL007 Shooting Incident to their liking. This includes the Soviet Union, Japan, the USA, and what’s worse, even Korea. If we continue to believe exactly as stated on the news, we can become caught up in conspiracies and plots of powerful nations.”
For Ji-Min, who lost a younger sister to this incident, revenge towards Osipovich became his/her reason for living. After learning Russian in America and studying astrophysics, Ji-Min successfully entered Russia. However, what would come of it to kill a mere general who was just performing his duties? The author then introduces the second man, “Moon,” and reintroduces revenge as a problem pertaining to the nation and ideology, as opposed to the individual.
Moon goes to meet General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union Gorbachev, receives an apology regarding the KAL007 shooting incident, and asks Gorbachev whether he has any thoughts of proclaiming the end of Communism. Moon then goes to Pyeongyang and tells North Korea Premier Kim Il-Sung to let go of his Juche Ideology. Rev. Sun Myung Moon, the founder of the Unification Church who met with Gorbachev and Kim Il-Sung in his lifetime, is a model of revenge.
The author sees the collapse of the Soviet Union and Communism as a result of the KAL007 Shooting Incident. Moon’s prediction of the Soviet Union collapsing within seven years became a reality.
“Ji-Min and Moon sought to exact revenge through his/her harsh life and eliminating Communism, respectively. Although their methods varied, they both did not forget about the KAL007 Shooting Incident and exacted revenge. True revenge is bound to be peace that comes from mutual understanding, but until we exact revenge, we cannot just sit around and do nothing.”
Under the topics of the conflict between the USA and China surrounding the deployment of THAAD (in his novel, “THAAD”), the hidden history in Hanja (in his novel, “The War on Writing”) and the KAL007 Shooting Incident tragedy from the Cold War Era, Kim warns the Korean people to look directly at the reality the Korean Peninsula and its people are currently facing.
Kim, who is currently working on a sequel, conveyed, “Conflicts surrounding the Korean Peninsula are intensifying, and we are in a state with a high chance of military confrontation. This sequel is a work that presents solutions pertaining to these problems.” (380 pages, with a price of 14,800 Won)....

Want to see a really hip and cool website? Take a look at the Concert for America website which is promoting a remarkable event on September 25th. This event is becoming so big, and the website is so beautiful and chock-full of energy, ideas, things to buy and things to do that I don’t know where to start. So let’s start with why this event, or I should say, this phantasmagoria of events is being held at all.
Actually what this really is all about is a #ConcertAcrossAmerica to #EndGunviolence. You see, even an old guy like me is starting to write with hashtags rather than just plain, old (boring) words. Behind these tags is a remarkable, collaborative effort combining the energies and commitments of more than 100 organizations who have already organized more than 75 concerts in 40 states, with more on the way. And not only can you get to a live event by driving a couple of hours in one direction or another, if you even have to go that far, but through the miracle of social media you’ll be able to attend multiple events. In that regard, I should also put a link (it’s right here) to the concert’s Facebook page, which also contains news about all the different events.
I was going to stick around my home state, Massachusetts, and go to concerts here and there, but I’m tempted to go down to da city because the concert at the Beacon Theater, which happens to be a few blocks away from where I used to live, is going to be an unbelievable event. I mean, when was the last time that the one, the only, the magnificent Jackson Browne shared a stage with Marc Walkin’ in Memphis Cohn and, and, Roseanne Cash??? I mean, this really can’t be done.
I’m going to make a prediction. My sister Barbara and my mother actually went to Woodstock for the real deal in 1969. They went up there because my father, who managed a big dairy in New Jersey, used to buy raw milk from Max Yasgur, on whose farm the concert was held. So a couple of days before the great event Max called my father to tell him not to send up a truck to get that week’s milk supply because, as Max put it, “they’re running all over the place.” And he wasn’t talking about his cows. He was talking about the 400,000 who showed up and camped out all over his land.
Anyway, back to my prediction. If I had a nickel for everyone who, over the years, claimed to have been at Woodstock, I wouldn’t have to keep working for a living. Truly, the concert was a national, cultural event. And my prediction is that we may be looking at the same kind of situation on September 25th because everyone will either have been at one of the performances or will want everyone else to believe that they went to one of the events.
Take a quick look at the logos of the supporting organizations. It’s a who’s who of faith-based groups. anti-violence groups, environmental groups, student groups, education groups – an enormous outpouring of interest, energy and concern. And don’t forget to buy a t-shirt and contribute to the campaign. I just bought a shirt and added some more dough. You should do it too.
In addition to the music already planned, many more are taking shape, and at least 150 faith-based organizations are also planning to hold musical and devotional events. This gets us to around 300 venues where people will gather on September 25th to use music as a medium to express their determination to stop the killings, the injuries and the violence caused by guns.
Know who’s really going to take back America? The Gun Violence Prevention movement is going to take back America and the campaign gets into high gear on September 25th. Remember, if you don’t go to one of these concerts, you’ll have to tell everyone that you did. | <urn:uuid:d558356a-e2b5-462a-b2f4-5a37858e56f1> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://mikethegunguy.com/2016/08/23/get-ready-for-september-25-a-really-big-event/ | 2018-06-19T04:45:39Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267861899.65/warc/CC-MAIN-20180619041206-20180619061206-00156.warc.gz | en | 0.971889 | 859 | [

Introducing backward-incompatible change to a piece of code, especially if that code has a lot of dependants (i.e. located more upstream in the river, if we’re using the river of CPAN analogy), will cause pain. But sometimes you need or want to do it anyway.
Suppose you have this tree of dependencies:
Aa (0.01) Bb (0.01, requires Aa=0) Cc (0.01, requires Aa=0) Dd (0.01, requires Cc=0) Ee (0.01, requires Cc=0) Ff (0.01, requires Ee=0) Gg (0.01, requires Ee=0) Hh (0.01, requires Aa=0.01)
Now a backward-incompatible change is introduced in Aa, and you release Aa 0.02. Let’s say this change happens to affect Bb and Cc but not Hh.
If a system updates Aa to 0.02, suddenly Bb and Cc will break. And Dd, Ee, Ff, Gg will break too because Bb and Cc break. Aa can be updated due to a variety of causes, from manually for testing (like in a CPAN Testers machine) or because user installs something else like say Ii which needs Aa=0.02.
So you now release Bb 0.02 and Cc 0.02 to cope with the changes introduced in Aa. And these updates are not backward-incompatible so users of Bb and Cc can still specify Bb=0 or Cc=0.01. The dependency tree becomes like this:
Aa (0.02) Bb (0.02, requires Aa=0.02) Cc (0.02, requires Aa=0.02) Dd (0.01, requires Cc=0) Ee (0.01, requires Cc=0) Ff (0.01, requires Ee=0) Gg (0.01, requires Ee=0) Hh (0.01, requires Aa=0.01)
If a system happens to update just Bb or Cc, Aa will be correctly updated automatically to 0.02.
If a system just updates Aa, the same situation still happens: Bb & Cc will break, Dd, Ee, Ff, Gh will break too because Bb and Cc break.
Now suppose you add a new feature to Ff and release new version of Ff (0.02, requires Ee=0). Even though this does not have to do with backward-incompatible change of A 0.02, breakage might still happen. Let’s say a CPAN Testers machine tries to install Ff 0.02. The machine won’t automatically upgrade Bb and Cc because the specified dependency of Ff 0.02 doesn’t require it too. Now the test will fail when there is a new Aa (0.02) installed but old versions of Bb and Cc.
This is exactly what happens to me a few times, most recently in the case of Data::Sah 0.79. After I released Data::Sah 0.79, and then a couple of weeks after that release some other distributions that do not directly depend on it, some CPAN Testers machines will start reporting failure for these distributions. This is because the machines happen to have the updated Data::Sah but some older direct dependants which break under the new Data::Sah.
So back to our Aa example, to properly induce a cascade update, after we release Bb 0.02 and Cc 0.02, we also need to release Dd and Ee just to bump the prerequisite version of Cc to 0.02 even though Dd and Ee don’t exactly require Cc 0.02 (they can live with Cc 0.01). And repeat the process recursively: update Ff and Gg just to bump prerequisite version of Ee, and so on.
Thus, if a system updates Gg 0.02, Ee will automatically be upgraded to 0.02, Cc automatically upgraded to 0.02, and Aa automatically upgraded to 0.02.
To reiterate: after we introduce a backward-incompatible update to a module, we must update all the direct dependants of that module that are affected by the change, and also recursively update all their dependants just to bump the minimum prerequisite version and force pulling the module’s and direct dependants’ update.
In the case of Data::Sah, this involves hundreds of distributions because Perinci::CmdLine::Lite is a direct dependant that is affected. And Perinci::CmdLine::Lite (via Perinci::CmdLine::Any) is used by many of my App:: distributions. But fortunately, on a production system, Data::Sah typically won’t be updated without Perinci::CmdLine::Lite also being updated. | <urn:uuid:1bd3b0ca-4fab-49a0-b6b2-2e0d1a02c0ab> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://perlancar.wordpress.com/2016/06/10/cascade-bumping-of-prerequisite-version/ | 2018-06-19T04:21:21Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267861899.65/warc/CC-MAIN-20180619041206-20180619061206-00156.warc.gz | en | 0.851246 | 1,094 | [

The frequency with which I wear this vest on weekends is somewhat embarrassing. But it really is the perfect layering piece and adds just the right amount of that rugged laid-back vibe to my look (see the other ways I’ve worn it here, here, here & here). And, in my opinion, it never hurts to add some high impact jewelry – though these Capwell Co. pieces are fabulous enough to stand alone, I couldn’t resist layering them together for a serious statement.
What I’m wearing:
Simply Vera Vera Wang turtleneck (on sale here), Old Navy vest (similar), Xhilaration skinnies (here or similar here), Merona booties (here), c/o Capwell Co. necklaces (here and here), R&J handbag (here), Dockers aviators (similar), Nails: Essie Berry Naughty | <urn:uuid:fb38305a-faf2-41cf-9fb6-07153d5a5ca7> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://www.pennypincherfashion.com/casual-friday/ | 2018-06-19T04:35:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267861899.65/warc/CC-MAIN-20180619041206-20180619061206-00156.warc.gz | en | 0.859675 | 189 | [

Second, it gives the Mets an opportunity to showcase Nick Evans as trade bait. No MLB team is going to value a 24-year-old who dominates AA pitching but struggled mightily in AAA. But, Evans has been hot, and if he can club a few homers at the MLB level, maybe some team will take notice and consider Evans as a secondary piece in a deal for a journeyman pitcher. The Shane Spencer Effect.
more than likely Evans will go to AAA after the break to make room for Beltran, and Thole will go back down to make way for a reliever (my money’s on Acosta). | <urn:uuid:efb533a1-8873-4639-8fdc-352beabbbbda> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | http://www.metstoday.com/4837/player-notes/mets-demote-igarashi-promote-nick-evans/ | 2018-06-21T04:31:19Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267864022.18/warc/CC-MAIN-20180621040124-20180621060124-00156.warc.gz | en | 0.947336 | 142 | [

When you create several worksheets in Excel, all the worksheets names are not displayed on the worksheet tab. This may make navigation to a worksheet that’s not visible a little bit annoying. You will have to use keyboard shortcuts such as the Ctrl+Page Up, Ctrl+ Page Down or the navigation buttons at the bottom left of the worksheet to move around. In this Excel tutorial, I’ll show you how to navigate to any worksheet quickly in Excel 2010. It should work on previous versions of Excel too!
How to Navigate to Any Worksheet Quickly in Excel 2010
By far the easiest method of navigation involves selecting a worksheet name from the right-click menu. To display the menu:
1. Right-click the navigation buttons at the bottom left of the Excel workbook.
2. Select the worksheet name from the right-click pop-up menu.
By default, the pop-up menu displays 15 worksheet names. If you want to view more worksheet names, you have to click More Sheets and select the worksheet from the Activate dialog box.
You can also create a new Excel worksheet containing the names of all the worksheets and hyperlink the names to the worksheets. Here’s how to accomplish this:
1. Create a new Excel worksheet. Move it to the beginning of the workbook if you have created it toward the end of the workbook.
2. Name the workbook Worksheet Names or something that is indicative of its contents.
Ads by Google
3. Enter the names of all the worksheets in your workbook in the newly created worksheet.
4. Move the cursor to the worksheet name and click Ctrl+K.
5. This will display the Insert Hyperlink dialog box. Click Place in This Document, select the sheet name you want to link to and click OK.
6. Repeat this process for all worksheet names until done.
This process may take a bit of time to set up but if you frequently work with the workbook, it’s probably worth the trouble.
You can also resort to other techniques such as creating macros, but I’ll leave that for another day.
These simple tips should help you accomplish your job pretty effortlessly.

Kinser’s Senior Session Highlights
to kick off her portrait session. There were great locations everywhere and we took full advantage of the gorgeous scenery within the community. There is a covered bridge, a weathered barn, a pond with a gazebo, and of course, the stunning fairways of the Tom Fazio designed golf course. Just a spectacular neighborhood!
Kinser is also a repeat pageant head shot client of ours so she knows a thing or two about posing and what I am looking for during a session. She was knocking out the poses left and right and it shows. Her wardrobe selections were great as well, making her stand out in every scene we shot in. What a fun session!

I’ve been in London for the past week so here is my recap for the past three episodes.
Derrick: Derrick was the first one on one of the season, and he had a great showing. I liked that he made an effort to be decisive with each choice he was given. I had no idea there was even a Derrick after the first episode but he made a great first impression.
James Taylor: James is awesome. I love how genuine and sweet he is with Jojo. I loved how outgoing and grateful he seemed during their entire date. The more he is shown the more I like him. That being said, I don’t think Jojo is going to end up with him. I would love it if she did pick him, but I don’t see that happening.
Luke: Luke is someone Jojo really likes just based on body language for the first couple of episodes. When they finally sat down for their date, Luke was so open and honest with Jojo. I really like them together, and see him going very far.
Chase: Chase is also another stand up guy. I loved the mini snow date at the cocktail party and when they went on their date, I really warmed up to him.
- Jordan– OK, it’s so obvious Jojo loves this guy. She’s already pressuring him for all this validation. She needs it from him because she just loves him. Kaitlyn did it with Shawn and Andi did it with Josh. Now Jojo is doing it.
- James T.
- Robby– Robby is someone I didn’t really think about until last night’s episode where Jojo said she felt comfortable with him even though she didn’t really know him.
Chad gets his own little section on my blog because he was just that much of a character. In episode 2, I actually didn’t mind him. He was pretty hilarious with the West Side Story comment and his commentary during the rose ceremony is gold.
He was also kind of right about saying he’s not going to say he’s falling for Jojo, when he doesn’t even know her. Did he go about it in the right way? Not really, but from Jojo’s perspective, she sees this guy is is being polarizing with how honest he is and she is intrigued by it. Additionally, when he does say he had feelings for Jojo, it’s more believable.
Now in episode 3 and 4, I can’t defend him…at all. The violent threats were absolutely ridiculous. In what world is violent threats going to look good on television? His self-awareness flew out the window when he grabbed Evan’s shirt. Now I do think the constant pestering from Alex and Evan was a bit too much, but to say he’s going to beat up people is absurd. Now we wait for the epic conclusion of the Chad Saga.
- Chad’s eating habits at the cocktail party is literally me at any function.
- The Jojo song had me dying. The bromance is real in the house.
- That being said, who’s going to be the next villain? The house really bonded with their anti-Chad pact, but he’s gone now.
- Chad explaining his protein shake analogy was really great.
- I’m going to miss Chad. 😦
- Wells was adorable. I think he’s a lock for Bachelor in Paradise. James too.
- I think if Chase doesn’t win, he’d be a solid Bachelor.
- Jojo is killing it when it comes to the fashion on the show. | <urn:uuid:b9de5942-6a91-4d0f-82a4-dd6e0fa9c4ea> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://kgsblog.com/2016/06/08/the-bachelorette-chad-overload/ | 2018-06-23T04:28:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267864940.31/warc/CC-MAIN-20180623035301-20180623055301-00156.warc.gz | en | 0.985165 | 785 | [

The next round of talks on renegotiating the EU’s Emissions Trading System (ETS) kick off today in London. The ETS
The next round of talks on renegotiating the EU’s Emissions Trading System (ETS) kick off today in London. The ETS aims to regulate pollution from industry in pursuit of the EU’s ambitious climate goals of cutting emissions by 95% compared to 1990 levels by 2050.
But Brussels won’t be able to meet its target alone; international consensus is required to regulate emissions generated outside of national jurisdictions. The focus of today’s summit – the trillion-dollar global shipping industry, responsible for 3% of global CO2 – is a prime example.
The EU is aiming to broker cuts on shipping emissions through the International Maritime Organization. But the move faces resistance from oil-producers like Saudi Arabia and the UAE. Countries reliant on geographically-remote traded, particularly those in Latin America, also fear that cuts could increase the costs of long-haul trade, raising prices of imported products and reducing the competitiveness of their exports.
Discussions at the International Maritime Organization will resume in October and, if a consensus is reached, an agreement could be drafted as early as next year and implemented in 2023. But if they fail, the EU will likely incorporate ship emissions to the ETS by 2023. | <urn:uuid:81b6b303-755e-4f1a-82ee-13c1785b8e1b> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://www.foreignbrief.com/daily-news/eu-debates-reduce-ship-emissions/ | 2018-06-23T04:25:32Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267864940.31/warc/CC-MAIN-20180623035301-20180623055301-00156.warc.gz | en | 0.928599 | 279 | [

World Cup fever is at a pitch around the world. Hard-fought cricket matches over the past two weeks have yielded winners and losers, cheers and tears.

NATO forces say they are indefinitely suspending the training of Kosovo's security force for breaching its mandate.
NATO said in a statement Sunday that the alliance had called off its support for the 2,500-strong Kosovo Security Force following "the appearance of an armed, military-style KSF honor guard" at an event.
It says "this is inconsistent with (its) non-military status." Kosovo's force was set up last year with a role limited to civil emergencies as part of a plan that allowed Kosovo to secede from Serbia.
NATO is also protesting the display of its flag at the ceremony marking the 12th anniversary of the killing of the leader of the ethnic Albanian guerrilla group that fought Serbia in the 1998-1999 war. NATO says it is neutral to Kosovo's independence. | <urn:uuid:fc04be2f-2e53-45e5-9771-30407b61d66c> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | http://rasnews.blogspot.com/2010/03/nato-suspends-training-of-kosovo.html | 2018-06-24T02:56:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267866191.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20180624024705-20180624044705-00476.warc.gz | en | 0.94105 | 164 | [

Testicular cancer is cancer that develops in the testicles, a part of the male reproductive system. Symptoms may include a lump in the testicle, or swelling or pain in the scrotum. Treatment may result in infertility.
|7.4 × 5.5-cm seminoma in a radical orchiectomy specimen.|
|Symptoms||Lump in the testicle, swelling or pain in the scrotum|
|Usual onset||20 to 34 years old males|
|Types||Germ cell tumors (seminomas and nonseminomas), sex-cord stromal tumors, lymphomas|
|Risk factors||Undescended testis, family history of the disease, previous history of testicular cancer|
|Diagnostic method||Physical exam, ultrasound, blood tests, surgical removal of the testicle|
|Differential diagnosis||Spermatocele, epididymitis, inguinal hernia, appendix testis|
|Treatment||Surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, stem cell transplantation|
|Prognosis||Five-year survival rate rates ~ 95% (US)|
Risk factors include an undescended testis, family history of the disease, and previous history of testicular cancer. The most common type is germ cell tumors which are divided into seminomas and nonseminomas. Other types include sex-cord stromal tumors and lymphomas. Diagnosis is typically based on a physical exam, ultrasound, and blood tests. Surgical removal of the testicle with examination under a microscope is then done to determine the type.
Testicular cancer is highly treatable and usually curable. Treatment options may include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or stem cell transplantation. Even in cases in which cancer has spread widely, chemotherapy often offers a cure rate greater than 80%.
Globally testicular cancer affected about 686,000 people in 2015. That year it resulted in 9,400 deaths up from 7,000 deaths in 1990. Rates are lower in the developing than the developed world. Onset most commonly occurs in males 20 to 34 years old and is rare before 15 years old. Five-year survival rate rates in the United States is about 95%. Outcomes are better when the disease remains localized.
Signs and symptomsEdit
One of the first signs of testicular cancer is often a lump or swelling in the testes. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommends against routine screening for testicular cancer in asymptomatic adolescent and adults including routine testicular self-exams. However, the American Cancer Society suggests that some men should examine their testicles monthly, especially if they have a family history of cancer, and the American Urological Association recommends monthly testicular self-examinations for all young men.
Symptoms may also include one or more of the following:
- a lump in one testis which may or may not be painful
- sharp pain or a dull ache in the lower abdomen or scrotum
- a feeling often described as "heaviness" in the scrotum
- breast enlargement (gynecomastia) from hormonal effects of β-hCG
- low back pain (lumbago) due to the cancer spreading to the lymph nodes along the back
It is not very common for testicular cancer to spread to other organs, apart from the lungs. If it has, however, the following symptoms may be present:
- shortness of breath (dyspnea), cough or coughing up blood (hemoptysis) from metastatic spread to the lungs
- a lump in the neck due to metastases to the lymph nodes
A major risk factor for the development of testis cancer is cryptorchidism (undescended testicles). It is generally believed that the presence of a tumor contributes to cryptorchidism; when cryptorchidism occurs in conjunction with a tumor then the tumor tends to be large. Other risk factors include inguinal hernias, Klinefelter syndrome, and mumps orchitis. Physical activity is associated with decreased risk and sedentary lifestyle is associated with increased risk. Early onset of male characteristics is associated with increased risk. These may reflect endogenous or environmental hormones.
Most testicular germ cell tumors have too many chromosomes, and most often they are triploid to tetraploid. An isochromosome 12p (the short arm of chromosome 12 on both sides of the same centromere) is present in about 80% of the testicular cancers, and also the other cancers usually have extra material from this chromosome arm through other mechanisms of genomic amplification.

The main way testicular cancer is diagnosed is via a lump or mass inside a testis. More generally, if a young adult or adolescent has a single enlarged testicle, which may or may not be painful, this should give doctors reason to suspect testicular cancer.
Other conditions may also have symptoms similar to testicular cancer:
- Epididymitis or epididymoorchitis
- Prostate infections or inflammations (prostatitis), bladder infections or inflammations (cystitis), or kidney (renal) infections (nephritis) or inflammations which have spread to and caused swelling in the vessels of the testicles or scrotum
- Testicular torsion or a hernia
- Infection, inflammation, retro-peritonitis, or other conditions of the lymph nodes or vessels near the scrotum, testicles, pubis, anorectal area, and groin
- Benign tumors or lesions of the testicles
- Metastasis to the testicles from another, primary tumor site(s)
The nature of any palpated lump in the scrotum is often evaluated by scrotal ultrasound, which can determine exact location, size, and some characteristics of the lump, such as cystic vs solid, uniform vs heterogeneous, sharply circumscribed or poorly defined. The extent of the disease is evaluated by CT scans, which are used to locate metastases.
The differential diagnosis of testicular cancer requires examining the histology of tissue obtained from an inguinal orchiectomy - that is, surgical excision of the entire testis along with attached structures (epididymis and spermatic cord). A biopsy should not be performed, as it raises the risk of spreading cancer cells into the scrotum.
Inguinal orchiectomy is the preferred method because it lowers the risk of cancer cells escaping. This is because the lymphatic system of the scrotum, through which white blood cells (and, potentially, cancer cells) flow in and out, links to the lower extremities, while that of the testicle links to the back of the abdominal cavity (the retroperitoneum). A transscrotal biopsy or orchiectomy will potentially leave cancer cells in the scrotum and create two routes for cancer cells to spread, while in an inguinal orchiectomy only the retroperitoneal route exists.
Blood tests are also used to identify and measure tumor markers (usually proteins present in the bloodstream) that are specific to testicular cancer. Alpha-fetoprotein, human chorionic gonadotropin (the "pregnancy hormone"), and LDH-1 are the typical tumor markers used to spot testicular germ cell tumors.
A pregnancy test may be used to detect high levels of chorionic gonadotropin; however, the first sign of testicular cancer is usually a painless lump. Note that only about 25% of seminomas have elevated chorionic gonadotropin, so a pregnancy test is not very sensitive for making out testicular cancer.
After removal, the testicle is fixed with Bouin's solution because it better conserves some morphological details such as nuclear conformation. Then the testicular tumor is staged by a pathologist according to the TNM Classification of Malignant Tumors as published in the AJCC Cancer Staging Manual. Testicular cancer is categorized as being in one of three stages (which have subclassifications). The size of the tumor in the testis is irrelevant to staging. In broad terms, testicular cancer is staged as follows:
- Stage I: the cancer remains localized to the testis.
- Stage II: the cancer involves the testis and metastasis to retroperitoneal and/or paraaortic lymph nodes (lymph nodes below the diaphragm).
- Stage III: the cancer involves the testis and metastasis beyond the retroperitoneal and paraaortic lymph nodes. Stage 3 is further subdivided into non-bulky stage 3 and bulky stage 3.

Although testicular cancer can be derived from any cell type found in the testicles, more than 95% of testicular cancers are germ cell tumors (GCTs). Most of the remaining 5% are sex cord-gonadal stromal tumours derived from Leydig cells or Sertoli cells. Correct diagnosis is necessary to ensure the most effective and appropriate treatment. To some extent, this can be done via blood tests for tumor markers, but definitive diagnosis requires examination of the histology of a specimen by a pathologist.

Surgery is performed by urologists; radiation therapy is administered by radiation oncologists; and chemotherapy is the work of medical oncologists. In most patients with testicular cancer, the disease is cured readily with minimal long-term morbidity. While treatment success depends on the stage, the average survival rate after five years is around 95%, and stage 1 cancers cases, if monitored properly, have essentially a 100% survival rate.
The initial treatment for testicular cancer is surgery to remove the affected testicle (orchiectomy). While it may be possible, in some cases, to remove testicular cancer tumors from a testis while leaving the testis functional, this is almost never done, as the affected testicle usually contains pre-cancerous cells spread throughout the entire testicle. Thus removing the tumor alone without additional treatment greatly increases the risk that another cancer will form in that testicle.
Since only one testis is typically required to maintain fertility, hormone production, and other male functions, the afflicted testis is almost always removed completely in a procedure called inguinal orchiectomy. (The testicle is almost never removed through the scrotum; an incision is made beneath the belt line in the inguinal area.) In the UK, the procedure is known as a radical orchidectomy.
Retroperitoneal lymph node dissectionEdit
In the case of nonseminomas that appear to be stage I, surgery may be done on the retroperitoneal/paraaortic lymph nodes (in a separate operation) to accurately determine whether the cancer is in stage I or stage II and to reduce the risk that malignant testicular cancer cells that may have metastasized to lymph nodes in the lower abdomen. This surgery is called retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RPLND). However, this approach, while standard in many places, especially the United States, is out of favor due to costs and the high level of expertise required to perform successful surgery. Sperm banking is frequently carried out prior to the procedure (as with chemotherapy), as there is a risk that RPLND may damage the nerves involved in ejaculation, causing ejaculation to occur internally into the bladder rather than externally.
Many patients are instead choosing surveillance, where no further surgery is performed unless tests indicate that the cancer has returned. This approach maintains a high cure rate because of the growing accuracy of surveillance techniques.
Since testicular cancers can spread, patients are usually offered adjuvant treatment - in the form of chemotherapy or radiotherapy - to kill any cancerous cells that may exist outside of the affected testicle. The type of adjuvant therapy depends largely on the histology of the tumor (i.e. the size and shape of its cells under the microscope) and the stage of progression at the time of surgery (i.e. how far cells have 'escaped' from the testicle, invaded the surrounding tissue, or spread to the rest of the body). If the cancer is not particularly advanced, patients may be offered careful surveillance by periodic CT scans and blood tests, in place of adjuvant treatment.
Before 1970, survival rates from testicular cancer were low. Since the introduction of adjuvant chemotherapy, chiefly platinum-based drugs like cisplatin and carboplatin, the outlook has improved substantially. Although 7000 to 8000 new cases of testicular cancer occur in the United States yearly, only 400 men are expected to die of the disease.
In the UK, a similar trend has emerged: since improvements in treatment, survival rates have risen rapidly to cure rates of over 95%.
Radiation may be used to treat stage II seminoma cancers, or as adjuvant (preventative) therapy in the case of stage I seminomas, to minimize the likelihood that tiny, non-detectable tumors exist and will spread (in the inguinal and para-aortic lymph nodes). Radiation is ineffective against and is therefore never used as a primary therapy for nonseminoma.
Chemotherapy is the standard treatment for non-seminoma when the cancer has spread to other parts of the body (that is, stage 2B or 3). The standard chemotherapy protocol is three, or sometimes four, rounds of Bleomycin-Etoposide-Cisplatin (BEP). BEP as a first-line treatment was first reported by Professor Michael Peckham in 1983. The landmark trial published in 1987 which established BEP as the optimum treatment was conducted by Dr. Lawrence Einhorn at Indiana University. An alternative, equally effective treatment involves the use of four cycles of Etoposide-Cisplatin (EP).
Lymph node surgery may also be performed after chemotherapy to remove masses left behind (stage 2B or more advanced), particularly in the cases of large nonseminomas.
As an adjuvant treatment, use of chemotherapy as an alternative to radiation therapy in the treatment of seminoma is increasing, because radiation therapy appears to have more significant long-term side effects (for example, internal scarring, increased risks of secondary malignancies, etc.). Two doses, or occasionally a single dose of carboplatin, typically delivered three weeks apart, is proving to be a successful adjuvant treatment, with recurrence rates in the same ranges as those of radiotherapy. The concept of carboplatin as a single-dose therapy was developed by Tim Oliver, Professor of Medical Oncology at Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry. However, very long-term data on the efficacy of adjuvant carboplatin in this setting do not exist.
Since seminoma can recur decades after the primary tumor is removed, patients receiving adjuvant chemotherapy should remain vigilant and not assume they are cured 5 years after treatment.
Treatment of testicular cancer is one of the success stories of modern medicine, with sustained response to treatment in more than 90% of cases, regardless of stage. In 2011 overall cure rates of more than 95% were reported, and 80% for metastatic disease—the best response by any solid tumor, with improved survival being attributed primarily to effective chemotherapy. By 2013 more than 96 per cent of the 2,300 men diagnosed each year in the U.K. were deemed cured, a rise by almost a third since the 1970s, the improvement attributed substantially to the chemotherapy drug cisplatin. In the United States, when the disease is treated while it is still localized, more than 99% of people survive 5 years.
For many patients with stage I cancer, adjuvant (preventative) therapy following surgery may not be appropriate and patients will undergo surveillance instead. The form this surveillance takes, e.g. the type and frequency of investigations and the length time it should continue, will depend on the type of cancer (non-seminoma or seminoma), but the aim is to avoid unnecessary treatments in the many patients who are cured by their surgery, and ensure that any relapses with metastases (secondary cancers) are detected early and cured. This approach ensures that chemotherapy and or radiotherapy is only given to the patients that need it. The number of patients ultimately cured is the same using surveillance as post-operative “adjuvant” treatments, but the patients have to be prepared to follow a prolonged series of visits and tests.
For both non-seminomas and seminomas, surveillance tests generally include physical examination, blood tests for tumor markers, chest x-rays and CT scanning. However, the requirements of a surveillance program differ according to the type of disease since, for seminoma patients, relapses can occur later and blood tests are not as good at indicating relapse.
CT scans are performed on the abdomen (and sometimes the pelvis) and also the chest in some hospitals. Chest x-rays are increasingly preferred for the lungs as they give sufficient detail combined with a lower false-positive rate and significantly smaller radiation dose than CT.
The frequency of CT scans during surveillance should ensure that relapses are detected at an early stage while minimizing the radiation exposure.
For patients treated for stage I non-seminoma, a randomised trial (Medical Research Council TE08) showed that, when combined with the standard surveillance tests described above, 2 CT scans at 3 and 12 months were as good as 5 over 2 years in detecting relapse at an early stage.
For patients treated for stage I seminoma who choose surveillance rather than undergoing adjuvant therapy, there have been no randomized trials to determine the optimum frequency of scans and visits, and the schedules vary very widely across the world, and within individual countries. In the UK there is an ongoing clinical trial called TRISST. This is assessing how often scans should take place and whether magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be used instead of CT scans. MRI is being investigated because it does not expose the patient to radiation and so, if it is shown to be as good at detecting relapses, it may be preferable to CT.
For more advanced stages of testicular cancer, and for those cases in which radiation therapy or chemotherapy was administered, the extent of monitoring (tests) after treatment will vary on the basis of the circumstances, but normally should be done for five years in uncomplicated cases and for longer in those with higher risks of relapse.
A man with one remaining testis may maintain fertility. However, sperm banking may be appropriate for men who still plan to have children, since fertility may be adversely affected by chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy. A man who loses both testicles will be infertile after the procedure, though he may elect to bank viable, cancer-free sperm prior to the procedure.
Globally testicular cancer resulted in 8,300 deaths in 2013 up from 7,000 deaths in 1990. Testicular cancer has the highest prevalence in the U.S. and Europe, and is uncommon in Asia and Africa. Worldwide incidence has doubled since the 1960s, with the highest rates of prevalence in Scandinavia, Germany, and New Zealand.
Although testicular cancer is most common among men aged 15–40 years, it has three peaks: infancy through the age of four as teratomas and yolk sac tumors, ages 25–40 years as post-pubertal seminomas and nonseminomas, and from age 60 as spermatocytic seminomas.
In the United States, about 8,900 cases are diagnosed a year. The risk of testicular cancer in white men is approximately 4-5 times the risk in black men, and more than three times that of Asian American men. The risk of testicular cancer in Latinos and American Indians is between that of white and Asian men. The cause of these differences is unknown.
In the UK, approximately 2,000 people are diagnosed a year. Over a lifetime, the risk is roughly 1 in 200 (0.5%). It is the 16th most common cancer in men. It accounts for less than 1% of cancer deaths in men (around 60 men died in 2012).
Testicular tumors occur also in animals. In horses, these include interstitial cell tumors and teratomas. Typically, the former are found in older stallions (affected stallions may become extremely vicious, suggesting excessive production of androgen), and the latter are found in young horses and are large.

Prologue - 015
Turns since TBfGK: 11
The new Gobwin Knob was growing on Parson, but it hadn't lost any of its weirdness.
There were only a few basic functions of an Erfworld city. All of them were for war. But among the empty cookie-cutter buildings, this city had many oddities: structures that imitated functions it didn't really have.
There was an amphitheater, for instance. It would seat about 800. Why? There was never any reason to go there. Something like a bank or counting house stood on one corner near the garrison, its steel vault bare. There was an ice house, where blocks of burlap-covered ice would pop. When they eventually melted or sublimated, more ice blocks would pop.
And there was also a slaughterhouse and smokehouse. This struck Parson as particularly weird, because of how farms worked. As he understood it, if you had a farm, then one turn a piglet would pop on your farm. It would live there for a few turns, becoming a bigger pig each turn. Then at the start of another turn, it would depop and various pig-related foods would pop in the larder of the nearest city and/or the capital.
Gobwin Knob's slaughterhouse stood clean and empty, fresh sawdust on the bloodless floor.
But he had to go and look at it, or it wouldn't "work" as efficiently. They would get more bacon next turn because he had walked in and out of the slaughterhouse this turn. Or possibly the act looking at it would doom the pigs, cows and chickens on some farm. He wasn't really sure.
Parson usually took along someone to talk to as he made his rounds. Sometimes this was Maggie or Sizemore. Sometimes it was one or two of the Decrypted Warlords or Archons. Today, it was Jack, the Foolamancer.
They walked the back streets where other units were sparse, poking their noses into various buildings. Parson still wore his armor and jeans, but had acquired a walking staff topped with a little wooden Hamstard.
Jack wore a dark purple trench coat and a wide-brimmed white hat, and carried a thin straight cane, topped with an 8-ball. He had a birdlike habit of glancing around at things, fixing his eyes on one nearby spot after another. Parson got tired of following his gaze to see what he might be seeing, and eventually started walking a step ahead of him. Jack said very little, unless prompted.
"So what do you think, Jack?" Parson had asked him earlier. "Why have something like a treasure house if there's nothing inside it?"
"A house unkept cannot be so distressing as a life unlived," said Jack.
Jack was supposed to have his mind back together, but Parson had his doubts. He also didn't like non-answers. "You're saying you don't know."
"I am saying I don't care, my good Lord," said Jack, tilting his head. "But that is true as well."
They came to what Parson thought of as the courthouse, a small jail with holding cells. Empty, of course. They walked through the building, along the rows of iron bars. "I guess this place actually does have an Erfworld function," he mused, as they came to the exit. A set of iron keys hung on a peg, and he jingled them like a wind chime. "Taking of prisoners, etc..."
Jack glanced back at one of the tiny windows in one of the open cells. "No longer, it would seem."
He followed Parson out into the street. "Fashions change, my good Lord," said Jack. "The taking of prisoners is passe. Skulls are the new shackles." With his cane, he gestured toward a pair of Decrypted soldiers standing on the opposite corner. "But black still goes with anything."
Parson thought about it as they walked two blocks toward the lumber yard. The clacks and rings of city activities carried on the breeze. "Yeah, Wanda's scary," he said at last.
"Oh come now, good Lord," said Jack, smiling brightly. "Surely you can be just as scary!"
Parson smiled, despite himself. "Jack..." He sighed, and stopped walking. "No. I'm out of the 'scary' business. Or trying to be."
The Foolamancer looked at him wryly. "Are you? I thought you'd a talent for it."
"That's the problem."
"I see," said Jack. He turned and started walking again. Parson now followed him. "To have talent is to be in demand. I well know."
"Yeah. Right. But my talent has... I dunno, moral consequences," said Parson. "I don't think they're worth it. So I've got it so I don't have to be in demand. Happy enough with that for now."
"The talent itself supplies the demand, good Lord," said Jack. He stopped suddenly, looked up, and raised his cane. "Here, the sky."
The ten or twelve dwagons flying around up there seemed to double. As Parson looked closer, though, he saw that about half of them were in odd colors. Orange, silver, maroon, and even a candy-striped one.
Parson looked down at Jack, "You just felt like making some fake dwagons up there?"
"Indeed, my talent demanded it," said Jack, with a twinkle in his eye. "Just as yours demanded you put real ones up there."
Jack turned again and began walking away. "Do you suppose that will carry any 'moral consequences?'"

It is important to get good quality equipment that does the job for you — that much is obvious. However, it is also important to get equipment that makes observing easy and pleasant to do. If your equipment is awkward and difficult, you will most likely give up in frustration or lose interest. Variable star observing should be fun!!
I favour the Dobsonian telescope for observing variables because of its simplicity and because you can get large apertures relatively inexpensively (enabling you to see fainter stars); therefore my comments will be confined to this instrument. You do have the disadvantage of having to move the telescope every so often as the Earth rotates, but I find this not too serious (except at higher powers). Later, I’ll make specific remarks on using equatorially mounted telescopes (with setting circles) and binoculars. (Yes, Martha, binoculars are good here too.)
Whatever telescope you chose, you’ll need the following:
- Coarse finder — this is to get the telescope pointing in the right part of the sky. This can be the “gunsight” type or the more sophisticated Telrad projection system. In any case, you need a better system than sighting along the side of the Dobsonian’s box (if it has one).
- Telescopic finder — this is to “zoom in” to your pointer star. The straight-though finder (telescope) can be awkward; on the other hand, the usual diagonal (prism or mirror) attachment reverses the image (not good). The best is probably the Amici prism which does not reverse (but is expensive). In my system, the finder with an Amici prism is mounted on top of the telescope tube and the view through the finder is exactly the same orientation as when I lift my head and look up at the sky. (You have to try the usual single-reflection diagonals to really appreciate this!!) Also, the flat part of the telescope tube allows me to lay a chart flat and move my eye rapidly from chart to eyepiece while illuminating the chart with a suitably dim red flashlight.
- A telescope (Newtonian or Schmidt Cassegrain) with well collimated optics — to pin-point images. A fast focal ratio is preferred because it gives a wide angle of view, making “star hopping” easier. (However, proper collimation is then critical.) As mentioned before, an equatorial mount and setting circles are not essential.
- Eyepieces — you’ll need a good selection to go from 40 x to 400 x or more. Barlows are good. You don’t need the premium eyepieces costing $300 or more each. Orthos are good but do not give the wide apparent angle of view. Erfles and Plossls give a wider field but are more expensive.
There are two methods for finding the field of view:
- Timing the passage of a star on the celestial equator across the field of view. (Use: 15 deg/hour — 15 arc min / min)
- By calculation — diameter of field stop x plate scale (“/mm) (plate scale = 206,265 / f where f = focal length in mm)
- Red flashlight — any reliable flashlight will do — just tape the clear part with red translucent electrician’s tape.
- Observing chair — adjustable in height.
- Warm clothing — ’nuff said.
First, you’ll need naked eve finder charts to get you started in the right direction. Skalnate Pleso and Atlas 2000.0 are good for this. For each variable, photocopy the appropriate area of the sky onto stiff paper, add a title and identify north.
Next, you’ll need AAVSO charts to give you the fine-scale (telescopic) field of the variable, with the comparison stars and their magnitudes. They come in various scales: ‘b’ — 60″/mm, ‘d’ — 20″/mm, etc. I can supply you with copies to get you started; later, as you get into it, you can order your own at $0.25 each or download them from the AAVSO web site). Locate the brightest star ln each ‘b’ chart and mark it in pencil — this will be your “AAVSO pointer star”. (I use different shapes for each star I want to mark like circles, squares, triangles. Corresponding stars on different charts can then be quickly identified.)
Now go back and mark the boundaries of the AAVSO ‘b’ chart on your naked eye chart. Mark your pointer star. If this is too dim to see with your naked eye, mark a nearby bright star — this will be your “naked-eye pointer star”.
BEFORE YOU GO OUT
I highly recommended that you carefully (with a good quality drafting compass) draw appropriately sized circles on white paper and photocopy them onto sheets of mylar. (Each size will correspond to the angle of view through the finder or telescope eyepiece on the appropriate chart). Then, you’ll be able to place the transparency over the chart and know exactly what you’re looking at.
AT THE TELESCOPE
Check the alignment of the optics first to ensure pin-point images. (See the articles in Sky and Telescope, 1988 March-April for how to do this.) Then aim the telescope at a bright star (so that you can’t mistake where you’re looking), centre it in the eyepiece, and adjust both finders carefully. Check your work.
Now to find your variable! Swing your telescope around, and with the coarse pointer, aim the telescope at the naked-eye pointer star in the naked-eye finder chart.
Now look for the same star in the telescopic finder — it should stand out (since you chose the brightest one around). Move the telescope gently to put the star on the cross-hairs. Remembering to orient it correctly, take the chart (or the next one at a slightly larger scale) and compare it with what you see in the eyepiece of the finder. The various star patterns in the eyepiece (I see a lot of triangles, hockey sticks, 4-sided figures and the like) must correspond to what you see in the chart. This is where the transparencies come in — it is essential that you know what your field of view is. Take care with this step. When appropriate, I like to mark the patterns (called asterisms) in pencil for quick reference.
If things don’t seem to fit, go back, checking carefully. You may be able to wander around (lost in space?) and get the right star. However, finding the pointer star should not be a problem. (If you insist on using a diagonal which reverses from left to right, you’ll either have to do mental gymnastics — not recommended — or turn your chart face down and shine your flashlight through it. A portable light table is easier to use but still not good.)
If the naked-eye pointer star is not on your AAVSO ‘b’ chart, you’ll have to “star-hop” to the pointer star which is. Carefully and slowly (in case you go the wrong way) move the telescope and, at the same time, move the transparency on the chart. With practice, you’ll know which direction to move, and how much. When the AAVSO pointer star is centred on the cross-hairs, it is time to look in the main telescope.
Insert the longest focal length eyepiece (for the widest view). Now take the AAVSO ‘b’ chart. If, in your finder utilizing the Amici prism, north was, say, at the upper right, then, in your main telescope, SOUTH will be at the upper right. AAVSO charts at a scale of 60″%mm or finer are always printed with south at the top.) Orient the chart correctly and check the star patterns around the AAVSO pointer star — again these should correspond. (Use the mylar transparencies here too.) If things don’t agree, go back and recheck your steps.
It things agree, you are most of the way there! Now star-hop across the chart slowly until you approach your variable. (Again, go slowly because you may inadvertently pull the telescope in the wrong direction or misidentify a star.) You should now be able to see your variable or at least the field around it (if the variable is too faint). Are the stars in the vicinity too faint? Switch to a higher magnification and, if necessary, switch to a finer-scaled chart. very sure in your identification — remember, everything must correspond EXACTLY. When you are sure you are looking at the variable, it is time to start the process of estimating the magnitude.
By the way, lest you think that finding your variable is a long and complicated process, please be advised that experienced observers can usually find the variable in less time than it took you to read the previous section. It will take you a while the first few times, though.
ESTIMATING THE MAGNITUDE
Your first task is get the approximate magnitude of the variable. Find another star which is about as bright. (On AAVSO charts, the decimal points in the magnitudes are omitted to avoid confusion with a star.) Next, try to “box in” the variable — try to find a star on the chart which is a little bit brighter than the variable, and one which is a bit fainter. At first, they’ll all look the same; however, with practice, you’ll be able to pick out the differences.
Now there are various methods you can use to estimate the brightness of the variable. One method I don’t recommend is to stare at each star directly. You can’t do this for the fainter ones anyway and for the brighter ones, you run into problems with colour differences. Your fovea (that part of the retina used when you look directly at something) sees reds more brightly than does the rest of the retina. (This is called the Purkinje phenomenon.) Unfortunately, most variables are red in colour, and many comparison stars, white or nearly so. If you stare directly at the stars, you’ll get readings for the variable which are 0.2 to 0.4 mags too high.
Instead, I use one or all of the following methods. Stare midway between the stars you wish to compare and you’ll see which is glowing more brightly. For some reason, this is important: twist your head so that the line joining the stars is parallel to the line joining your eyes. Also, it is important to place the midway point at the centre of the field. Another method is to compare the brightness of the de-focussed images. Yet another method (use this when all else fails) is to glance really quickly from one to the other and back again.
To “nail down” the brightness, use the step method. If the brighter comparison is, say, 9.2, and the dimmer is 9.9, estimate the steps: brighter — var — dimmer. If the steps are about equal, then the magnitude is 9.5 or 9.6. If the variable is closer to the brighter, the magnitude is 9.3 or 9.4, and so on. Probably the error will be around 0.2-0.3 magnitudes, although experienced observers should be able to get 0.1 if the stars are not too dim.
If the variable is very dim, use lots of magnification and, of course, averted vision and proceed as above. Luckily, there are probably good comparisons nearby. For stars that are really dim, things get quite hard; you should probably avoid faint variables at the start.
If the variable is very bright, you have the opposite problem — there is probably no comparison bright enough in the same field. There are two solutions — hop around (with the telescope, of course), using your memory or the apparent brightness, or use the finder for some other telescope).
When you have the brightness estimate, record it, the time, the comparisons used, the variable name, and any other pertinent information in your notebook. You’re done!!
USING EQUATORIALLY MOUNTED TELESCOPES
These are more convenient because they track, and south is always at the top (unless you use the cursed single-reflection diagonal). You also have the advantage of using the slow motion RA or DEC controls. If the axis is properly aligned, you can use the setting circles and skip the first step with the coarse pointer when searching for the field. You will still have to do the final star-hopping, though. (The digital setting circles on CAT telescopes may enable you to move directly to your star. If you think this is worth several thousand dollars, go for it.)
I have no experience doing binocular variables, but you probably need a holder of some sort to keep the binoculars steady. You’ll be restricted to the brighter variables, but this makes the job of finding your star easier. With smaller magnifications, the rotation of the earth will not be a problem.
7 x 35 binoculars — magnitudes 2 – 8
7 x 50 ” — ” 3 – 9
6″ (150 mm) telescope — ” 6 – 12
8″ (200 mm) ” — ” 7 – 13
10″(250 mm) ” — ” 7.5 – 13.5
13″ (330 mm) ” — ” 8 – 14
Experienced observers can go about one magnitude fainter in each case. Note: I have dropped the limits for both binoculars one magnitude from what calculation predicts because you cannot increase the magnification for these devices.
While other observers may do things differently, I have tried to present my step-by-step set of instructions on how to get started in variable star observing. Years ago, I started observing variable stars for what I could learn from it. I have indeed learned much; but more than that, I have gained an enduring fascination with this subject. At the very least, it gives you something to do after you have looked at the usual show objects in the sky (and possibly dabbled in astrophotography). And, unlike with astrophotography, you will also have the satisfaction of knowing that you have made your contribution to progress in astronomy.
By the way, did you know that the bulk of the data on long period variable stars comes from amateur astronomers? It all began in 1855 when Argelander, realizing that there were far more variable stars than professional astronomers could cope with, called upon amateur astronomers to take up the task. Since then, the AAVSO (and others) have accumulated over 5.5 million observations, providing a wealth of data for professional astronomers to analyze. The need continues; there is lots of observing for everyone to do
There a lot more information on the AAVSO web site: http://www.aavso.org | <urn:uuid:ddb3520e-be65-4e2d-978d-67b3cc3960c7> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | http://pgrasc.org/resources/observing-weather/how-to-observe-variable-stars/ | 2018-06-19T06:59:33Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267861980.33/warc/CC-MAIN-20180619060647-20180619080647-00516.warc.gz | en | 0.916469 | 3,238 | [

Lose weight, stop smoking make more money, and find a new job…
Typically adult resolutions made on New Year’s right? But what about some that might help your kids?
The American Academy of Pediatrics suggests a variety of interesting and helpful New Year’s resolutions for kids that parents might want to suggest to their kids for a prosperous 2016.
There is everything from following home rules like limiting Internet time and brushing teeth to tackling chores and even suggestions/resolutions about bullying. As parents, it never hurts to make sure your kids are being the best young people they can be.
I will clean up my toys by putting them where they belong.
I will let my parents help me brush my teeth twice a day. I will wash my hands after going to the bathroom and before eating.
I will help clear the table when I am done eating.
I will be friendly to all animals. I will remember to ask the owners if I can pet their animal first.
I will be nice to other kids who need a friend or look sad or lonely.
I will talk with my parent or a trusted adult when I need help or am scared.
Kids, 5 to 12 years old
I will drink reduced-fat milk and water every day, and drink soda and fruit drinks only at special times.
I will take care of my skin by putting on sunscreen before I go outdoors on bright, sunny days. I will try to stay in the shade whenever possible and wear a hat and sunglasses, especially when I’m playing sports.
I will try to find a sport (like basketball or soccer) or an activity (like playing tag, jumping rope, dancing or riding my bike) that I like and do it at least three times a week!
I will always wear a helmet when riding a bike, scooter or skateboard.
I will wear my seat belt every time I get in a car. I’ll sit in the back seat and use a booster seat until I am tall enough to use a lap/shoulder seat belt.
I’ll be friendly to kids who may have a hard time making friends by asking them to join activities such as sports or games.
Kids, 13 years old and older
I will try to eat two servings of fruit and two servings of vegetables every day, and I will drink sodas only at special times.
I will take care of my body through physical activity and eating the right types and amounts of foods.
I will choose non-violent television shows and video games, and I will spend only one to two hours each day – at the most – on these activities. I promise to follow our household rules for videogames and Internet use.
When faced with a difficult decision, I will talk about my choices with an adult whom I can trust.
When I notice my friends are struggling, being bullied or making risky choices, I will talk with a trusted adult and attempt to find a way that I can help them.
I will be careful about whom I choose to date, and always treat the other person with respect and without forcing them to do something or using violence. I will expect to be treated the same way in return.
I will resist peer pressure to try tobacco-cigarettes, drugs or alcohol. I will also avoid the use of e-cigarettes.
I agree not to use a cellphone or text message while driving and to always use a seat belt.
Just like adults, it never hurts for kids of all ages to have their own set of New Year’s resolutions! | <urn:uuid:b470869f-7cc3-4706-9941-1a5ec6e140c4> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | http://blog.steellockersports.com/inspiration/new-years-resolutions-for-kids-you-bet/ | 2018-06-20T07:34:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267863489.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20180620065936-20180620085936-00196.warc.gz | en | 0.953663 | 733 | [

Hello my Lovelies! It’s time for a new travel tips article and this time we take you back to Thailand, more specifically to share our experimented tips on how to get to Phi Phi Islands. Enjoy!
Koh Phi Phi is a group of islands without an airport and can only be reached by ferry or speedboat from Krabi, Phuket, Ao Nang, Riley, and Ko Lanta. Ferries departing from Krabi and Phuket have connections to Phi Phi throughout the year, while the rest is only guaranteed to cover this line in high season (normally from October to May).
How to Get to Phi Phi Island
To get to Phuket or Krabi you can use the plane, both have airport that connects you to the main destinations of Thailand, or the bus, popular with low budget travelers traveling from Bangkok. Phuket has no railway connection, but Krabi has a nearby train station located in Trang.
You will have no problem hiring a trip from anywhere in Thailand to Phuket or Krabi, or even to Phi Phi with all transfers. Just go to any travel agency. Most likely your hotel or guesthouse will also be able to arrange the necessary connections to get to Koh Phi Phi.
You will also have no problem organizing your trip on your own. If you travel by bus or train to the relevant stations and buy your tickets there. The ferry ticket can also be purchased at the pier from which you travel to Koh Phi Phi. If you are traveling by plane the best option is to use a flight search engine that will help you compare prices, schedules, and airlines.
How to get to Ko Phi Phi Island from Phuket Airport (Our choice in 2015)
Many people come to Phuket for the sole purpose of taking a boat to Ko Phi Phi. This was our case as Phuket never called us too much attention and we had other priorities. Ahead we had Phi Phi, Railay, Koh Phangan and Bangkok, different places but all special.
The first thing we need to know is where the boat leaves to the Phi Phi Islands. To reach these islands you will have to go to Rasada Pier port, for which you have to cross the whole island from the airport.
How to get from Phuket Airport to Rasada Pier
Think that you are in Phuket and everything is much more expensive than in the rest of Thailand, including transportation. To get to the port, you have several options:
- 1st OPTION – Official airport bus (not so recommended by time)
For this option you will have to take a first bus that goes from the airport to Phuket Town. It takes about 1 hour and costs THB 100 (€ 2.5). You can see schedules on the official website (airportbusphuket.com). They leave every hour and a half.
Once in Phuket Town you will have to take a tuk-tuk, a taxi or another bus that takes about 20 minutes to Rasada Pier. In total the trip should be about 150THB (3’7 €)
- 2nd OPTION – Shared taxi from the airport to Rassada Pier (recommended option)
This is the best option as it takes 45 minutes and takes you straight away. We chose the 3rd OPTION…Pay the taxi and get Scam…but this is another history.
Where to buy ferry tickets to Phi Phi
To buy the tickets we recommend 100% do it online and in advance, once you arrive at the port, you have 2 or 3 companies that have the monopoly and charge a much higher price. Yes, it happened to us and we do not want it to happen to you.
If you buy it online you can find tickets for about 350 THB (9 €). If you expect to buy it in the port will pay much more. To buy them online you have several options, but we recommend PhuketFerry.com. We met people who used it and had no problems. The schedules can be consulted on the same page, there are usually about 3 or 4 ferries a day.
The ferry that takes you there takes about 2 hours to get to Tonsai Pier and it’s fine. It is not the most comfortable in the world but it takes you wherever you want. You can sit on the chairs in the interior or enjoy the exterior of the views offered by the route. It has toilets and a small cafe where to buy something for the road, that if, at a higher price than usual.
One final tip: once you enter, you will have to leave your pack on the border, where they are all stacked and not let them put them in the boat. What we did in these cases was to prepare a backpack with all the valuables we had or fragile objects (passport, wallet, mobiles, camera, etc.) and we took it with us.
How To Get To Phi Phi Island – From Krabi
The ferries from Krabi to Koh Phi Phi depart from a jetty located 4 km from the center of Krabi. In high season there are at least four ferries a day and several speedboats, while in low season they are reduced to two connections per day. The price will be around 300 baht and the journey will take an hour and a half. The agencies that sell you the ticket will also facilitate the transportation to the pier for free.
How To Get To Phi Phi Island – From Ao Nang (and Riley)
From November to May there is a boat that covers the Ao Nang – Riley – Koh Phi Phi route departing early in the morning and returning at noon. The boat leaves Ao Nang, picks up passengers at Riley and continues to Phi Phi. The trip costs 400 baht and the journey takes approximately two hours.
How To Get To Phi Phi Island – From Ko Lanta
From Ko Lanta to Koh Phi Phi there are two daily connections early in the day and noon in high season. The trip costs 450 baht and the journey takes two hours.
Note on how To Get To Phi Phi Island: Prices are indicative and may change significantly depending on the season, schedule, and type of boat you are taking. On the other hand, do not rely on the schedules and prices that you can see in the travel guides as they change often.
Usually if you take the first flights of the day to Phuket or Krabi and do not want to spend a night in these places you can organize without problems the connection to Phi Phi on your own for the same day.
Hope you guys enjoyed this post and will find it useful for your next trip to the Thai Islands! 🙂

The butterflies in the stomach, the pencils sharpened, the nervous jitters, the favorite outfit neatly ironed and ready to go, the thought “man….I can NOT wait to go homeland take a NAP.” All familiar standards for the first day of school. Trade in the pencils being sharpened, for the laptops being charged and lo and behold, you have the first day of classes and orientation for the #WestCOMSW school. Just as the likes of Billy Madison and Rodney Dangerfield before us… Back to school we went! No horrific first day of school happenings to report on: no tripping up the steps, toilet paper on the shoe, showing up to the wrong classroom, or any of the other things that students have nightmares about prior to the first day of classes. Just waves of excitement and motivation to learn. The school we are starting is just a slightly different from your normal Grad school. The #WestCOMSW is a cohort program in Glenwood Springs, which essentially means that all of us take the same classes, at the same time, so we are going to get to know each other very well! 15 folks from different places, different backgrounds, different hopes, dreams, aspirations, and goals, but many commonalities. Our program started last Friday, and already we have learned some amazing knowledge. Facts like: “Smoke more weed” (for the marijuana tax money…duh!), “don’t use the email [email protected] as an email address when trying to be a professional”, “Strive for the ‘B’”, and of course, when it comes to reading at the Masters level, “you must skim, skim, skim.” But all jest aside, we met some amazing, intellectual and remarkable people this weekend in the first classes of our two-year program. Friday was filled with picture taking, introductions, icebreakers, many meetings on “zoom”, which is the hip older sister to “skype”, and food…. lots and lots of food. In between the breakfast burritos, Jimmy John’s sandwiches, pizza, salads, and snacks, we managed to fit in a little learning.
The next ten weeks (and 2 years) hold the promise to be exciting, educational, and fun …. and probably a decent amount of watching of “TED talks” and trips to City Market. We travelled from Steamboat, Montrose, Leadville, Grand Junction and other High Rockies and Western Slope towns to learn, grow, and develop. We received the promise from every teacher to not only learn about clients, but also as importantly to learn about ourselves. To understand the people we will be helping, we have to understand ourselves….as simple as that. As we all embark on this magical, masterful journey to become Social Workers … change makers … do-gooders … we will question a lot, laugh a lot, probably cry, feel overwhelmed, and enraged, and sad, and accomplished, and joyful, and tired, and ill prepared, and a whole multitude of emotions at any given time. But these feelings will make the expedition even more fulfilling and worthwhile. As my main girl, Oprah Winfrey, put so poignantly:
“I’ve come to believe that each of us has a personal calling that’s as unique as a fingerprint – and that the best way to succeed is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others in the form of service, working hard, and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you.” – Oprah Winfrey
I think this past weekend was the beginning of our own personal calling, and the beginning of our “social work adventure”. After all, life is just one beautiful adventure after another, and I can’t wait to start on this one! | <urn:uuid:50217aa7-7d0f-4fbb-a238-4afa4a0f9365> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://westcomsw.com/2017/09/28/skim-skim-skim-a-beginners-guide-to-mastering-your-masters-program/ | 2018-06-21T06:41:21Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267864039.24/warc/CC-MAIN-20180621055646-20180621075646-00516.warc.gz | en | 0.95111 | 819 | [

Coaching Services in Perth
Coaching is a process that focuses on achieving specific goals. Our Perth coaches will help you set achievable goals and support you as you work towards them in a way that overcomes any difficulties or challenges encountered. Our coaches provide motivation and support as well as substantial psychological experience. We believe this gives clients the best chance at achieving success.
What is the difference between the types of coaching you offer?
The concept of coaching has its roots in the sporting world where players are coached to develop skills and enhance performance. However the term is now used more widely to include those wishing to develop their potential in various ways, whether that is at work or in life more generally.
Whatever the goal, the process is often the same. It involves discussing specific goals or targets, developing a plan to achieve the goals, finding solutions to the barriers encountered along the way and then achieving the goals.
Our services focus around three main areas:
- Personal development coaching
- Life coaching
- Careers coaching/executive coaching
Working with a psychologist
One of the main things that hold people back from achieving their goals is personal ‘demons’. These can include fears, worries, and past experiences. Psychologists who specialise in coaching are particularly skilled in recognising and managing this part of the process. In the sports world, this is often termed ‘the inner game’ and it is now believed to be key difference between success and failure.
Please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have about our services or to book an initial session with one of our psychologists or coaches.
Working with organisations
We can also provide coaching services to organisations and teams. Please see First Psychology Assistance for further information on this. | <urn:uuid:6dc41ebe-9258-44af-a739-f50947c33868> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://www.perthpsychology.co.uk/coaching.php | 2018-06-21T06:34:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267864039.24/warc/CC-MAIN-20180621055646-20180621075646-00516.warc.gz | en | 0.973328 | 356 | [

Comparing Font Legibility
If you're not reading the Wichita State Software Usability Research Laboratory newsletter regularly, you should be. It's an amazing source of usability experiments with actual data, hypotheses, citations, statistics, and all that other stuff that puts the science back into computer science.
A 2001 SURL experiment compared the legibility of twelve common web fonts on a then-typical 17" monitor running at a resolution of 1024x768. And before you read any further, you should first view the font samples.
Examining the mean reading time for each font type irrespective of their accuracy, we found significant differences. The reading time difference between [Corsiva and Tahoma] was 40 seconds for approximately two pages of text. This finding of a relatively small difference in reading speed between these fonts has been consistent with our previous studies.
I'm surprised that they consider a difference of 40 seconds -- that's 13 percent of the total reading time of ~310 seconds -- "relatively small". A 13 percent difference in reading time between the pseudo-calligraphic, completely inappropriate Corsiva and Tahoma isn't terribly surprising.
But here's what is: Courier -- the only monospace font in the experiment -- was the second worst font for reading time. Courier barely performed any better than the abhorrent Corsiva! Any connection between reading paragraphs in a browser and reading code in an IDE is unclear, but it certainly doesn't bode well for the use of monospace fonts in general.
In the end, the reading speed differences between the various fonts may not be large enough to be significant. At least not for the type of reading most people do on the computer:
.. the different reading speeds associated with various font types may not be of any real consequence for short online passages -- as long as the fonts are within the conventional font size and type range.
Before worrying about fonts, be sure you aren't presenting giant blocks of text to the user in the first place. Well-designed web pages avoid using large blocks of text, and so should your code. | <urn:uuid:007817b8-7a11-4515-95eb-189e70cbf235> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://blog.codinghorror.com/comparing-font-legibility/ | 2018-06-22T07:44:46Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267864364.38/warc/CC-MAIN-20180622065204-20180622085204-00196.warc.gz | en | 0.922743 | 422 | [

Greetings all. I am a dedicated amateur cook, and this is my first time posting here, although I've read many articles and posts with great interest. I'm looking for some new cookware – I recently parted with a lot of older Cuisinart MCP in a separation and a move to a new apartment. I liked the Cuisinart a lot, inexpensive and very competent, but I figure that since I can more or less start over again I'd consider alternate solutions. I just realized that even after losing the stainless cookware I still have quite a bit: Le Creuset French ovens, a Le Creuset skillet, 2 Lodge skillets, some original Corningware and several pans for baking. It occurs to me that I may not need a set at all, but possibly just some stockpots and saucepans. Anyway, I've been doing some R&D and my brain hurts. There seem to be so many possibilities, most of which seem to be at least decent. Here are the parameters I've been considering: Multi-ply vs stainless with aluminum disks: when I started looking I didn't even consider cookware with disks, but now I see that there are several highly-regarded lines (Vollrath, Bourgeat) that use disks rather than layered steel and aluminum. Not only that, but I see that where these items are reviewed at restaurant supply websites they get excellent reviews. Basically, the question here is: which is really better, or can really good stuff be constructed either way? USA vs France vs China: At this point it may be silly to worry about buying USA-made items, since basically everything is now made in China, but I do note more (not many, but more) bad reviews of Chinese-made items in the area of non-corrosion-resistant stainless steel and flaking/bubbling layers of steel in multi-ply cookware. I haven't seen anything like this for French-made products, nor for high quality American cookware e.g. All-Clad. I like quality stuff, and I lean toward the industrial rather than jewelry, although I do appreciate nice-looking equipment. I love things that are really well made, indestructible, and preferably unpretentious. I had come up with a few possibilities, and would appreciate any comments or suggestions: A set of Vollrath Optio, plus one or two additional open stock pots. Unbelievably inexpensive, and yet all the reviews I see are very positive. Disk construction, made in China. This certainly looks attractive for cost-effective and industrial, not sure how I'd like them in the long run. A self-designed collection of Vollrath Tribute stock pots and sauce pans. They look very sturdy and seem very well-regarded. Not cheap but reasonable. Multi-ply; originally they were made in USA but now seem to be made in China. I don't read of any problems WRT quality related to the change in factory location. Cuisinart's French Classic line, either a set plus a few bits of open stock, or a collection of their stockpot and their saucepans. They seem nicely made, and of possibly better quality than the MCP line. Multi-ply, reasonably priced (about half of All-Clad), but not many pieces in the collection, selection is a bit limited. Going for broke, a set of Mauviel M'Cook, either stock or the SLT version, which has a very nice brushed finish. The selection of pieces seems to be very intelligent to me: 2 saucepans, a stockpot, and a 10- and (almost) 12-inch skillet instead of the usual 8- and 10-inch skillets. (I actually wouldn't mind having the stainless skillets to complement the others I have...) Multi-ply, pretty darned expensive, and made in France. I am considering that if I get a set like this I'll probably keep it for at least 10 years, so the cost becomes less of an issue in the long run. Then, speaking of going for broke, there's All-Clad. I would consider the 3-ply stainless, certainly no fancier than that; they seem to be favorites of many, and I probably shouldn't ignore them. I don't like the handles, I find they dig into my hands and I don't feel that I have as much control over them as I'd like. But the quality certainly seems to be there, and I see very little buyers' remorse with them. Also Tramontina multi-ply, and the Saber cookware sold by Costco, but this post is already awfully long. I'm also beginning to worry that maybe I've overdone the R&D and I need to just get something, anything, and start cooking again Thanks for any comments and/or suggestions! | <urn:uuid:f27dcd35-18a0-4e9a-8019-78697f86b0c3> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://cheftalk.com/threads/yet-another-one-looking-for-new-cookware.80528/ | 2018-06-22T07:43:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267864364.38/warc/CC-MAIN-20180622065204-20180622085204-00196.warc.gz | en | 0.978748 | 1,008 | [

Swansea vulnerable with zonal marking, says Newcastle match-winner Lascelles
Newcastle United captain Jamaal Lascelles identified Swansea City's zonal marking as a weakness before heading the winner in Sunday's clash at the Liberty Stadium.
Lascelles climbed over Swans defender Alfie Mawson to nod the only goal in the 76th minute, giving the Magpies their second straight Premier League victory.
It was the second time in as many home matches that Swansea conceded from a corner, with Lascelles joining Manchester United's Eric Bailly in punishing Paul Clement's set-piece approach.
The 23-year-old admitted after the match that he was "not a fan" of zonal marking and expected to get opportunities.
"I said it before the game: they mark zonally and ideally I prefer to go against that," Lascelles told Sky Sports.
"With Matt Ritchie's delivery, it is on a plate every time. It was just down to me to put it in the back of the net and this game I did."
— Premier League (@premierleague) September 10, 2017
Newcastle's victory was achieved without manager Rafa Benitez as the Spaniard continues to recuperate from hernia surgery.
Assistant Francisco de Miguel Moreno revealed Benitez had been in regular contact throughout the match and even investigated the possibility of attending via helicopter.
"He wanted to come and wanted to do everything he could to attend but the weather conditions were not the best," Moreno told the BBC.
"He kept in touch with us throughout the game.
"After the game, Rafa rang us and congratulated all the team because they did a fantastic job. He said we are now under way." | <urn:uuid:975cb89d-4eb7-4b0d-8071-dc48a6899e1f> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://www.fourfourtwo.com/news/swansea-vulnerable-zonal-marking-says-newcastle-match-winner-lascelles | 2018-06-22T07:39:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267864364.38/warc/CC-MAIN-20180622065204-20180622085204-00196.warc.gz | en | 0.970749 | 362 | [

Good photographs should get better with time.
The further away the moment, the more meaningful the picture becomes.
Lately, the images that stand out for me are not always focused or perfectly centered.
They are the ones taken when nobody is looking.
See if you agree.
The most interesting pictures are like overheard conversations: juicy snippets giving an honest portrayal of that moment in time.
Even if you were never there.
(Blogger just about broke with me uploading so many jpgs but more are on the way, please check back later. I'm trying to put some up that have never been posted before.)

It's impossible to ignore the fact we're all going to be driving electrified vehicles in the future, and all-electric is the favorite for the long-term. However, the current impracticalities of all-electric cars and associated infrastructure inadequacies mean it's going to be a while before they are a genuine alternative to vehicles powered by internal combustion engines. And that means hybrids are going to bridge the gap between gas and all-electric in the meantime. The problem for buyers with hybrids is they generally cost a lot more than conventional versions of the same vehicle, and the savings on fuel are not great enough to make up for the difference in cost. However, that's not the case with 2018 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid Reserve. Check out all our new 2018 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid Reserve inventory near Mission Viejo, Garden Grove, and Costa Mesa, CA, has to offer today!
Trim levels are another area where Lincoln breaks from hybrid convention here. Quite a few manufacturers still only offer their hybrids as single, high-specification standalone models aside from the main lineup. But the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid is offered in the same trim levels as the rest of the lineup. That means the entry model is the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid Premiere, and then it goes upwards to the Hybrid Select, Hybrid Reserve and the top of the range Hybrid Black Label trim. Standard equipment includes: leather-trimmed seats and steering wheel, wooden dash trim, power heated front seats, automatic climate control, an 11-speaker audio system, adaptive LED headlights and LED taillights, adaptive suspension, keyless ignition and remote start, Bluetooth connectivity and steering-wheel mounted muIti-function controls. There's nothing about the exterior styling of the 2018 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid that screams hybrid. In fact, apart from any subtle badging there's nothing to give the game away at all. The exterior was impressively refreshed last year with a new front-fascia that did away with the traditional twin-wing grille, and in its place came a more traditional mesh version with the Lincoln logo in the center. The slim LED headlights wrap around slightly inwards, which adds to the somewhat sporty look delivered by the fastback shape of the rear of the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid. This is a very stylish, elegant and alluring design, which could have wider appeal than a lot of luxury rivals.
• BLIS® with Cross-Traffic Alert
• Power trunk lid
• Revel Audio System® with HD Radio™ and 14 speakers
• Voice-activated navigation system

What is a Bulldog
The Bulldog is small in stature, but wide and compact, with a thick, massive head. Its head should be broad (the broader the more prized) with cheeks that extend to the sides of the eyes. The skin on the skull and forehead should fall in dense folds. Its muzzle is short and pug, its nose, broad and black with large nostrils. Its upper lip is pendent and its lower jaw should be very undershot. Eyes are very round, far apart and very dark. The ears should be small and thin, folded back in the form of a rose. The tail is short and carries low. The coat comes in red, fawn, brindle, pale yellow or washed-out red, or white, and can combine any of these colors. Black is not acceptable. The Muzzle is sometimes dark. With its stocky legs set squarely at each corner of its compact, muscular body, the Bulldog's deliberate gain has become a waddle.
Although the English Bulldogs appearance can be somewhat intimidating, it is among the gentlest of dogs. Just the same it will see off any intruder, and few would risk a close encounter with a dog brave enough to bait a bull. It is described as a very affectionate and dependable animal, gentle with children, but known for its courage and its excellent guarding abilities. Bulldogs are very much a peoples dog seeking out human attention and loving every bit it can get!! A lot of human attention is required for the breed's happiness. Some English Bulldogs can be a bit dominating and need an owner who knows how to display strong leadership and understands alpha canine behavior. A Bulldog who understands it's *place* in the human pack, is nice to, and reliable with all people. This breed is good with family pets, but some can be scrappy with strange dogs. When Bulldogs are young, they are full of energy, but slow down as they get older. They snore very loudly, and most have drool and slobber tendencies.
Height: About 12-16 inches (31-40 cm.) (there is no prescribed height, but shorter Bulldogs are more prized when being shown)
Weight: Dogs 53-55 pounds (24-25kg.) Bitches 49-51 pounds (22-23kg.)
Breathing problems; some have small windpipes as well. Also poor eyesight, very susceptible to heat stroke in warm weather or hot rooms and cars. Very cold sensitive. Puppies often delivered by caesarian section because of their broad heads. Its digestive system is very active and may be offensive to people with sensitive noses. Susceptible to skin infections. Also hip and knee problems.
The English Bulldog is good for apartment life. They are very inactive indoors and will do okay without a yard. This breed is an indoor dog. Bulldogs do best in temperate climates as the breed can chill easily in cold weather and have trouble cooling off in very hot weather.
Some adult Bulldogs would just as soon not take any exercise, while others are full of energy. In any case all Bulldogs will stay fitter if given some regular. Fit English Bulldogs are capable of moving very quickly for short periods of time.
An average of 8 years. Some live longer while others live shorter lives.
The smooth, fine, short-haired coat is easy to groom. Comb and brush with a firm bristle brush, and bathe only when necessary. Wipe the face with a damp cloth every day to clean inside the wrinkles. This breed is an average shedder.
Today's bulldog has a very different temperament from those of his ancestors. The breed is descended from the ancient Asiatic mastiff, but its development took place completely in Great Britain. The name bulldog, which is medieval in origin, refers not only to the robust look of a little bull, which this aggressive dog has, but also to the power with which this dog attacked bulls in arena combat before that practice was prohibited by law in the nineteenth century.

Don’t let the word basic turn you off! I call it my basic recipe because its my go to recipe. Often I match it up with my Soy Chicken, but seriously if there is rice involved you can pretty much guarantee that this simple vegetable stir fry is not far away. It takes about 15-20 minutes to make, pretty much depends on how long it takes you to cut and prepare the vegetables. The best thing about it, you can add whatever vegetables you want to it! I honestly haven’t come across a vegetable that doesn’t go well with this. I am going to show you my favorite, but please experiment and see whats your favorite combination. Just one tip though, if going to use baby corn use the small ones or cut the big ones in half 🙂
What you need
1 Tablespoon Soy sauce
2 Tablespoons Teriyaki sauce
One large onion
One pepper- I am actually using 1/2 red pepper and 1/2 orange pepper
When cutting the vegetables up I like to leave them in long strips. I also don’t cut them too thin that they get mushy, but if that’s what you like then go for it.
To start you will want to add about 1 and 1/2 tablespoon to 2 tablespoons oil to a pain and heat it up on medium high. I normally set my stove at the 7 mark, but you will find the setting just right for you once you start cooking. Take this time to add your sauces together in a small bowl, that way you don’t have to try and measure anything out once you start to cook. When the oil has had a chance to heat up you can add in the onions. They will sizzle and steam up a bit, if your stove has a fan I recommend turning it on. This is a bit of a fast pace cooking, you really want to keep the food moving or it will burn. If you get some vegetables flying out don’t feel bad, it just means your getting into it 😉 I cook these on their own for about 4 minutes, you can see they get a nice color to them as they cook.
Add in your peppers and cook them for another minute or so.
Finally add in the zucchini, you will also cook this for another minute.
Now its time to add your sauce! At this point you will be happy to have them already together so you wont have to take a break from stirring to measure it out. Stir the sauce in making sure to get everything evenly coated. Cook for about another 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are to your desired tenderness.
This is amazing when served immediately over some rice, but it also heats up pretty well. I tend to cook them a little less then I find perfect, that way when I am heating up the leftovers they don’t get too mushy for my taste.
Hope you enjoy, and let me know what your favorite combination of vegetables turns out to be 🙂 | <urn:uuid:a232d404-88ea-4b29-aab0-0f9a96b3dde8> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | http://undertheskye.com/basic-vegetable-stir-fry/ | 2018-06-19T10:41:57Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267862248.4/warc/CC-MAIN-20180619095641-20180619115641-00236.warc.gz | en | 0.950885 | 619 | [

Following the Senate’s rejection in March of Gov. Christie’s last two nominees to the N. J. Supreme Court, the Star-Ledger reported Senate President Steve Sweeney said in a statement, Democrats would stand their ground until Christie offered a candidate that preserved the political balance of the court. His message: Send us a Democrat. Currently the court has two Republicans: Justices Helen Hoens and Anne Patterson, two Democrats: Chief Justice Stuart Rabner and Justice Barry Albin, and one Independent (often viewed as a Republican): Justice Jaynee Lavecchia.
Now in what Christie bills as a “compromise,” he has nominated one Republican, David Bauman, and another individual, Robert Hanna, who Christie labels an Independent.
As John Schoonejongen, Statehouse Bureau points out,“Hanna has a long association with Christie in both the U.S. Attorney’s Office and in his administration. Christie said he is the only Republican candidate to whom Hanna has contributed money.” Hanna served in the Christie administration for two years as Director of the Division of Law and Assistant Attorney General before the Governor nominated him to be President of the Board of Public Utilities. The two individuals even worked together authoring an article defending the controversial practice of deferred prosecution.
With Christie’s two new nominees, our Supreme Court would have seven members but only two Democrats – hardly balanced, nor appropriate for a blue state or a blue legislature. Appointing Hanna is no compromise. Governor Christie, nominate a Democrat. | <urn:uuid:c073a5f8-98bb-4304-9dfd-c3423fed58c6> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | http://www.bluejersey.com/2012/12/christies-nj-supreme-court-nominees-wheres-the-democrat/ | 2018-06-20T09:14:19Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267863516.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20180620085406-20180620105406-00556.warc.gz | en | 0.947568 | 321 | [

Progress on bulk fuel storage facility
As the National Petroleum Corporation of Namibia (NAMCOR) readies itself for the re-instatement of its 50% fuel import mandate, the oil and gas entity also recently provided a progress update on the construction of its 500 million litre bulk fuel storage facility.
Speaking to the Economist late last week on the sidelines of a Kudu Gas presentation was Ludwig Kapingana, Executive: Commercial Business Unit who acted as CEO since the departure of former head, Obeth Kandjoze.
Kapingana said, “a site has already been identified for the construction of the bulk fuel storage facility. We are also currently doing the final design plans as well as mapping out the route the pipeline will have to follow from bulk fuel storage facility to the tanker jetty.” Giving a brief explanation of the entire project, Kapingana said that it would comprise a tanker jetty, two berths, a pipeline and the bulk fuel storage facility.
The N$3 billion project is being constructed by the same Chinese company responsible for the construction of the expansion of the Port of Walvis Bay currently underway.
Other issues Kapingana also alluded to was the interest from Botswana and Zambia about the potential for an oil refinery.
Also speaking at the recent presentation was NAMCOR board chairman, Johannes !Gawaxab who said that NAMCOR was making pro-active investments for the possible re-instatement of the 50% fuel import mandate.
An excited !Gawaxab said, “NAMCOR has made significant strides in response to improving corporate governance and internal control. NAMCOR has achieved significant milestones which include an embedded integrated corporate governance framework and structure, an unqualified external audit statement for the year ended March 2015 [which is] a first in the history of NAMCOR, and the development of the business continuity management strategy.”
He added, “we are strengthening our capacity to create long-term value. Corporate governance is on a very sound footing as evidenced by the results of the company, [we’ve witnessed] a step change in operational performance and efficiency. Profitability programmes remain on track. | <urn:uuid:82c305ed-10ce-44c1-a430-5811e3136a6b> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://economist.com.na/13249/mining-energy/progress-on-bulk-fuel-storage-facility/ | 2018-06-20T09:14:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267863516.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20180620085406-20180620105406-00556.warc.gz | en | 0.954076 | 452 | [

Many have asked why is it coined, “Cloud Computing?”
Making use of a cloud storage space solution can make your life a great deal less complex.
This is so, specifically if you must access and alter files or documents while on the go.
Or, if you’re like Penny Pealman a CEO for a women’s shoe line who likes to work from home as well as travelling, perhaps needing to transfer a file while stuck in an airport, the cloud can provide flexibility of a work schedule and save not only one’s time, but his or her sanity when it comes to managing files.

Today cloud computing for the everyday normal guy and gal permits us to conserve documents on a remote web server, so it can be accessed from anywhere with an internet connection.
For a great deal of individuals, the experience of accessing data from anywhere resembles pulling your data from thin air, which is why we call it cloud computing.

I actually envy this person,
Not only that he get to insult the Johor and Selangor sultanates, now he got to go to Sweden because of it.
Yes, and on top of that, he was hailed as a hero.
Really lucky bastard.
I wish I can insult, especially the Johor sultanate and get to go to Sweden too.
It's a nice and beautiful country.
And the food is also good. I eat some at the Ikea's restaurant every now and then. My favorite is the meatballs.
Seriously, I don't mind spending a few years in a Nordic country, tagged as a heroic "prisoner of conscience" and when the time is right returns to Malaysia and be respected by the young ones as some sorts of "pejuang".
All that despite actually being so full of shit, ya.
Something like that basket case Hishammudin Rais.
Well, this Ali Abd Jalil is a basket case too. It's the only way I can describe him.
But of course he get to go to Sweden, while I can't.
It's because he got the money to pay for the trip to Bangkok and the flight from there to Stockholm.
I don't have that kind of money.
Yes, life sucks, sometimes.
Whatever it is, I wonder what this Ali Abd Jalil does for a living that he has that kind of money.
The reports described him as a student activist.
What kind of job is that?
Is he really a student?
And how is he going to live in Sweden?
Is he going to take up the job of student activist once more while in Sweden so that he can support himself there?
The job seems to pay well.
I wish I can apply for one.
Like Ali Abd Jalil, I am not very fond of the royalty too, especially those who are involved in excesses.
But in my case, I do not desire the demise of the institution.
The institution of Raja-Raja Melayu is part of the Malay cultural identity.
Sebahagian dari Jati Diri Melayu, so they said.
I just wish for the Malay Rulers and their families not to misbehave.
They have to be responsible and remember about their duties to the rakyat.
Being members of the kerabat diraja does not mean they are lords and masters of the rakyat and that they can do just whatever they want.
If the kerabat diraja still refuse to accept these facts about the real relations between the rakyat and themselves, then people like Ali Abd Jalil has already won.
The days of Kesultanan Melayu is indeed numbered, as more people begin to hate them for their misdeeds.
Anyway, for Ali Abd Jalil's information, Sweden has a king too.
His name is Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden
I hope Ali Abd Jalil will not go around insulting the Swedish king pulak once he got his asylum status there.
You know la these basket cases....can never tell what they are going to do next.
Well, if I'm in his shoes, I would actually rather try to seek asylum in Finland.
It is also a Nordic country but a republic.
It's a bit dumb I think for a Malay to flee from his bad Melayu king and only to run to a country with a Mat Salleh king.
Makes one very much appears like a self-hating Melayu with mentality enslaved by white men.
Ya, I definitely prefer Finland if I have to flee to one of those cool Nordic countries.
After all, Kimi Raikkonen is indeed more handsome than King Gustaf, | <urn:uuid:783095b0-ff90-416d-95f8-f4a72ff06a47> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | http://lifeofaannie.blogspot.com/2014/10/best-way-to-nordic-country.html | 2018-06-21T10:25:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267864139.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20180621094633-20180621114633-00236.warc.gz | en | 0.964606 | 797 | [

When it comes to confronting the issue of ill-gotten money (through corruption or tax evasion, for example) and its negative impact on development outcomes, we development professionals have often been guilty of tinkering at the edges of the problem, while avoiding confronting its root cause. Through recent work, we are attempting to rectify this dilemma.
In a study conducted between November 2010 and February 2011 on ill-gotten money and the economy, the Financial Integrity team looked at the experiences of Malawi and Namibia. We approached the project with an open mind and without any assumptions, finding that for Malawi, corruption and tax evasion as a percentage of GDP represent a significant drag on economic development. Corruption is estimated at 5% of GDP and tax evasion, at a whopping 8-12% of GDP. Meanwhile, we estimated that tax revenue actually collected by the Malawi Revenue Authority is only 22% of GDP. Thus, if the national tax authority had successfully collected all the taxes it was due, government revenue would increase by 50 percent. This is approximately about how much Malawi receives in foreign aid (11.7 percent of GDP). As one Malawi Revenue official stated when being interviewed during the study: “if we collected all the taxes, we will then not have to depend on foreign aid”.
The Namibian tax evasion situation is no better, as uncollected taxes are equivalent to about 9% of the GDP. This is larger than education’s share of the economy and almost as large as the mining sector—which generates most of the country’s export income. What makes things worse is that Namibia suffers from the highest income inequality in the world: The Gini co-efficient, which measures the gap between rich and poor, is estimated at 70.7. Tax evasion siphons away money that could be invested in productive resources needed to diversify the economy and address urgent social problems.
Furthermore, the revenue lost through corruption and tax evasion represents a diversion (“leakage”) of financial resources away from the national budget toward private spending. And these private expenses or expenditures have much lower “multiplier effects” than expenditures on, for example, agricultural fertilizers, education, health, and infrastructure.
There are four key things that practitioners can take away from the new World Bank study “Ill-Gotten Money and the Economy, Experiences from Malawi and Namibia”.
1. Losses caused by corruption and tax evasion are powerful examples of how criminal activities can potentially have tremendous negative effects on economic development.
2. Ill-gotten money is not spent on productive investments that can have a multiplier effect on an economy and benefit the significant majority of a population, rather than just a select few.
3. Policymakers in governments and development institutions such as the World Bank cannot afford to ignore issues that stand in the way of achieving economic progress, because it means that many people remain in poverty. So, in the case of Malawi and Namibia, addressing corruption and tax evasion should be part of a continuing dialogue with the two governments in our engagement with policymakers.
4. The study confirms the importance for developing countries to adopt, for their own benefit, customized legal regimes and institutions to go after dirty money. The regimes should reflect local political, economic and social contexts.
As practitioners, addressing these crucial issues head on – be it corruption, tax evasion or a bloated public sector—is our responsibility. No matter how contentious or uncomfortable it may be, we should avoid ignoring this “elephant in the room” and not look the other way when we know that any of these big issues are affecting a client country. We should explore initiatives that target the root of the problem—helping governments implement solutions to critical problems like tax evasion in the short-term, and exploring behavior-changing programs by educating youth on the perils of corruption in the longer term. We hope that policy makers will take our findings into account and do the same. | <urn:uuid:a5f00dfe-9e3a-4644-aca0-61185b7b4298> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | http://blogs.worldbank.org/governance/comment/220 | 2018-06-22T09:51:31Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267864387.54/warc/CC-MAIN-20180622084714-20180622104714-00556.warc.gz | en | 0.946005 | 816 | [

Clothing Object: F21 Long powder blue blazer
Another addition to my closet courtesy of my sister’s clothing collection. This is more of a weekend going out look for me. I was pleasantly surprised that my F21 sweater fits nicely under this blazer without too much bulk in the sleeves which was the reason I had avoided this blazer after originally acquiring it. Fashion definitely overcomes comfort in Toronto’s deep freeze though with ripped jeans and heeled booties. I’ve also been on the hunt for a nice orangey-red lip stain. This is cha cha tint by benefit in mango. I think I’m going to look for something with a more orange tint next time.

The US military is was looking into whether more civilians were killed in a raid on al Qaeda in Yemen on the weekend, in the first operation authorised by President Donald Trump as commander in chief.
US Navy SEAL William "Ryan" Owens was killed in the raid on a branch of al Qaeda, also known as AQAP, in al Bayda province, which the Pentagon said also killed 14 militants. However, medics at the scene said about 30 people, including 10 women and children, were killed.
US Central Command said in a statement that an investigating team had "concluded regrettably that civilian non-combatants were likely killed" during Sunday's raid. It said children may have been among the casualties.

Scientists create battery that doesn't need to be replaced2016-04-25 03:13 by Daniela
Researchers from the University of California, Irvine have accidentally discovered a way to boost battery longevity by up to 400 times.
In an attempt to find an alternative to lithium used in batteries, the researchers replaced it with nanowire-based gold material coated with electrolyte gel. They found out that by housing battery components in a gel shell they can be recharged (or cycled) hundreds of thousands of times without losing any power.
"Scientists are interested in nanowires because they allow high power to be obtained, without reducing the total amount of energy that is stored," Reginald Penner, chairman of UCI's chemistry department said.
"But nanowires are fragile," he added. "Any corrosion or dissolution of the nanowire material leads very quickly to breakage of the nanowire, and a loss of its capacity — which is bad. Our research is important because it demonstrates that a very simple modification to a battery or capacitor may allow nanowire electrode materials to last a lot longer, up to 40 times longer in our studies."
And because the price of the gold would make such batteries too expensive, the researchers suggest nickel as an adequate substitute for mass production.

Do you remember this? Please notice the perfectly decorated Christmas tree with all of the ornaments placed so carefully... That was our tree pre-children. This is our tree post-children.
Do you see it? The newest ornament on my Christmas tree? I'll give you a hint... it's most likely to be mistaken for a billboard. A giant cardboard billboard. And you know what? It's my favorite one... because it came into the house (sort of) hidden behind the back of a very excited giggling seven-year-old. Our Christmas tree has never looked better.
As a side note, please notice that Mr. Burgundy has continued his love affair with the tree.

More of these... I'm not very wordy lately. I'm going to blame that on the fact that I now say more words in the morning while getting the boys ready for school prior to work than I used to say in an entire day. So I'm running low on words. At least I still have the photos, right?

Some paintings happen so quickly that there aren't a lot of photos taken. You couldn't pry the paintbrush from my hand to give me the camera... Pacman was one of those paintings. Next Friday I'll be featuring Franky, who is Pacman's partner in crime.

Part of getting back on track for me is having a plan. Some sort of schedule... even if it is subject to change. And I don't want my "plan" in my iphone, because I have really bad technology karma. I want it on paper, where I can see it. Besides, the act of writing something down helps me remember important things- much more so than typing it.
After spending a couple of weeks walking around with things clipped to my bag & post-it notes trailing behind me, I finally bought a new planner. A bigger planner that has room to write down mama-ish things. It even has a wee bitty sketchbook in it. Not mama-ish, but artsy, which is the next best thing.
So now there is a place to write down plans. Once I figure out what they are.
Speaking of plans & getting back on track, there are 12 posts in mind for this month, 6 of which involve new art. 12 posts... at least that's the plan. I know this, because I wrote it down. In my new planner.

Over the last month I have felt more emotion than at any other point in my 38 years. Just ask anyone who has spent more than an hour with me early on in the adoption process; I developed this strange habit of randomly bursting into tears without warning... in the middle of laughter, standing in line at the post office, or on the phone with a stranger. It is an odd thing to feel so many different overly intense emotions all at the same time about the same thing. Happiness. Excitement. Nervousness. Fear. But more of each emotion than ever seemed possible. Emotion sandwich anyone?
It has been both the best & the hardest thing. We are finding our way, one day at a time... sometimes one moment at a time. Slowly but surely inching towards some sort of new normal.
On Saturday, something happened that made me feel a little more like myself. For the first time in what seemed like forever, I realized that there was some sort of peace that had fallen on our home. Everyone was okay. For the first time in two weeks I could feel that everyone was, even temporarily, feeling the first bits of acceptance about this new normal. So I sat down at the table & picked up a paint brush for the first time in a month... and then I started to feel normal too.

Hi, I'm Aunt Sherry. Your Mom & Dad are two of my best friends. So sorry that you have been around a few days & I haven't met you- I recently became a mama myself & haven't had a moment to lay eyes on you yet, but I have been thinking about you. As I mentioned in the letter to your big sister, I'm not sure how babies get matched up with parents but you have really hit the jackpot so you should definitely take credit for the choice. You didn't do too badly with your big sister either- she is amazing.
That's actually what I wanted to talk to you about... from one baby sister to another. Listen, your big sister Gemma is going to undoubtedly be great at her job. I have seen her pick up her toys & she is incredibly focused for a 21 month old. For real. She will show you around... let you know where the toys & books are located, how to get the dogs to make noises, what to do to get your Mom & Dad to do what you want- you know, the important stuff. She will eventually show you around school, maybe cheer you on while you learn to drive & give you all sorts of advice. But somewhere in the middle of all of that, she will find her special power. Her I-am-the-big-sister-and-I-was-here-first power. Don't get me wrong, she is wonderful... but there isn't a person alive who can have that sort of power & not abuse it every now & then. I mean we are all human, right? That's what my big sister would say, anyway.
Your big sister will be able to reach things you can't, eat things you can't & appear to be magic someday when she goes whizzing by on a bicycle with no training wheels. It will be infuriating. She will get dressed up one day & everyone will take photos on her first day of school & you will wonder why she got picked & you didn't. Everyone will tell you that you will get your turn & you will... but it won't be first.
So this is the important part; the part I wish someone had told me. She may get to be the first, but that means you get to be last... which carries with it a certain sweetness. You will very likely get away with things that Gemma never could. Your parents will want to rock you until your feet are touching the floor as you sit in their laps. They will be willing to carry you a little longer. They will linger longer with the camera as you go off to your first day of school... because you, dear girl will be their last first day of school. Their last first dance. Their last first day of college. Because you are their baby. And you always will be.
Just ask my big sister.
Welcome to the world Greta, I am so glad you are here!

The flash cards are the closest I have come to making art over the last couple of weeks. Oddly, I am okay with this. Not forever, but for now. Priority number one has been getting three little boys on a schedule so that they can know what to expect, which is especially important if you have been shuffled to 7 or 8 schools in your short little life. If you have lived with different families with different rules. Knowing what to expect is important, but also confusing. Yes- you read it correctly. If you are used to moving and changing and being told one thing while another thing happens, and suddenly that stops... it is confusing.
After a little while, it will become something comfortable, this knowing what to expect. It will become something to reach for. Life feels a little less "out of control" when you know that you get a bedtime story every night. You know your clothes are clean and in the drawers. You know who will wake you in the morning and how you are getting to school. You start anticipating things and appearing to be very pleased with yourself because you knew what to expect. We are having moments of this pleased-with-yourself business and I love the slow smile that comes along with it. We also have moments of not-very-pretty-angry-at-the-world mutiny, but let's not focus on that... let's just think of the smiles for now.
At the conclusion of the days of trying to follow through with absolutely every word that has come from my mouth, I am still too mentally exhausted to paint... although this won't always be the case. But for now, I'll stick to the flash cards. Because there is a six-year-old expecting them.

I realize that I have some explaining to do & I'm not really sure where to start. We have been jumping thought the proverbial hoops with the state for about 18 months & recently found out that we would get to be the lucky adoptive parents of 3 little boys. Once things started happening it was like holding on to the wing of an airplane as it goes down the runway... there has just been a crazy, happy, hard whirlwind of activity for the last few weeks. Not one day has passed that I haven't ended up in a puddle of tears over how happy & scary it all is... & I am astounded & completely humbled by the kindness & support we have received.
You might wonder why you haven't heard about this before- it's because there needed to be a space where I could come & not think about it, or be asked about it or wonder if it would actually ever happen. So I came here & talked about art & painting & other things that I love.
I'll still be talking about those things- once everything settles down. Right now I just want to be with my new family. Adoption is a crazy thing. Especially when you are willing to adopt older children & have no idea how old they will be or if they will be boys or girls... or any of the other million things parents wonder about. We made ourselves a little crazy sometimes wondering where they were, who there were & if they were in a good foster home. Was someone reading to them at night before bed? Did they feel loved? Luckily we now know that the answers were yes... at least for the last while. We have received more than kids, we have also received their foster parents who are now part of our family as well.
Sometimes I would silently say to myself "we are here...we are here..." because as much as I wondered where the children were, I couldn't help but think they might be wondering the same thing about us.
I will talk about them... eventually. It's important that you know that I will not talk about how they ended up needing parents or even their names... because how they ended up in foster care is their story to tell. Not mine. It is also not my place to tell you their names because once I put things out here on the Internet they can't be taken back... & they have had enough of their little lives discussed by adults who don't know them.
So for now, I just wanted to explain where I have been. And that I will be back. But not today- because it's almost time to pick up my kids from school.

I skipped art class this week but picked up the canvases from the Art Center & brought them home to do a little painting. The larger canvas isn't here because I wanted to focus on the Capitol painting which is getting close to being finished. I'll be back in class this week with (hopefully) lots of progress to show you next Monday.

I know, I know... Christmas ornament paintings in October... it's really too much. I get to participate in the art sale this year for the Arkansas Arts Center & thought it might be good to have something festive because the sale is the weekend before Thanksgiving. Clearly I got a little ahead of myself.

37 things to do before I’m 38
6. Ride a roller coaster
12. Leave happy notes for strangers
14. Pay off my credit cards
15. Make smores
16. List 100 items on Etsy
17. Have art night with friends
18. Update website
24. Sew a pillow
26. Befriend twitter
30. Make guacamole
31. Throw a party
33. Submit work to art magazine
34. Decorate a birdhouse
35. Paint stairs
37. Take photography class
So here’s where I stand on the list as my 37th year comes to a close; 22 items marked off my list. Some of them, although completed, will be carried over next year- such as ‘perform a random act of kindness’ & ‘try something new’. As a creature of habit, this list even inspired me to ‘do something unexpected’, like putting on superhero underpants over my nice Christmas outfit & prancing around a house. It wasn’t even my house. Let’s not discuss the fact that I was only able to finally do something unexpected when it was written on a list first. Yes, I get the irony.
Some of the things that fell by the wayside this year will make next year’s list as well… how I went an entire year without making smores is really beyond me. I’m also determined to get 100 things listed on Etsy. Third try is a charm, right? And paying off my credit cards… I have 2 cards & one is almost paid off. I don’t use them & really haven’t in a loooong time, but because I spent a couple of years running them up, it’s probably going to take a couple of years to pay them off. That’s ok, at least the balance is headed in the right direction. Leaving happy notes for strangers will also be fun.
All in all, it’s nice to look back at the list & enjoy the feeling of accomplishment & how happy some of these things made me or other people. I’m looking forward to making my ’38 things’ list for the next year. Please check back next Wednesday to see what I come up with.

My new business cards arrived from Moo & I LOVE them. They have your information on one side & a bit of your art on the other- you can actually design them any way you want & it is super easy. If you are considering new business cards for any reason you may want to check them out, especially if you are a visual artist of any sort. I ordered the glossy finish because it really captures the brightness of the colors, but I have seen the matte finish & it is also beautiful- just a bit more subtle. I'm not subtle, so why would I have subtle business cards?

The larger canvas, which is 2' x 3' has not changed much unless you look at it side by side with the photo from last week. Separate photos of each canvas can be viewed on Instagram... I am 'Meow Bark Art' if you want to follow me over there. The smaller canvas is 20" x 20" and is quickly turning into the Capitol. FYI... the Capitol building in Arkansas looks just like the one in Washington D.C. it's just much smaller.

I was recently commissioned to make some art for a nursery.
I was given a few colors to be sure to include, the canvas size & asked to make something including birds. The couple gave me some other ideas of what type of accessories they planned to purchase for the room so I could look at the websites & see the style of the nursery they wanted to create for the new baby.
It wasn't stressful at all- even though it is not my usual style, colors or medium. It was actually quite fun... probably because I had an assistant.
Photos of the finished pieces will be up next Friday.

2. Watching my nephews play football
3. Art class begins
4. Pumpkin spice latte
5. Dinner at Sushi Cafe
6. Fall T.V. shows
7. Tomato basil soup from Le Madeleine
8. Lots of new commissions
9. Being driven around Little Rock to take photos for new art
10. Daydreaming with a friend about her creative life
I don't know what it it about the weather change- each autumn as the temperature becomes manageable & the leaves start to turn & each spring as the sun starts to peek out & flowers start to bloom, it inspires me. I often face fall with a little dread because I know winter is around the corner. I'm not a fan of the cold... but this year I am welcoming it- all of it. Someone remind me of that when I'm whining in February.
There appears to be a running theme in this list... food. Sushi Cafe is a favorite all year, & they recently expanded so the wait for a table isn't as long- although it is certainly worth the wait. Soup from Le Madeleine is perfect when there is a little chill in the air- it might have been even better if I waited until October to have it. And what about pumpkin spice latte? It's basically a seasonal caffeinated dessert in drink form. My mouth is watering right this second even thinking about it. I had one a few days ago, for the first time since last year & I actually pulled out of the drive thru grinning from ear to ear.
My nephews play football, & although I don't really know all of the rules of the sport I scream like an idiot when they are on the field. I would prefer that they play something less dangerous, but that just makes me scream even louder when they are outrunning someone on the other team.
Art class... it is so inspiring to be surrounded by people who get as excited as you do about a new paint color or brush. I'm going to be looking forward to it every week.
There are all sorts of new shows on this time of year- I try not to sit in front of the TV unless there is actually something on that I know I want to see & this time of year there are plenty of those.
I'm not sure what happened, but I have had so many commissions for original art recently. I have so much gratitude that I can't even tell you... I remember the first time a "stranger" contacted me about doing a commission. I was calm until hanging up the phone, at which point I almost injured myself hopping around in excitement & crashing into things in my office. It wasn't pretty. Now most of the commissions I get are from people I don't know- friends of friends, people who have seen my website,etsy or art, or have picked up a business card along the way... & I could just pinch myself sometimes to be sure it is real. I have so much gratitude.
You will be seeing some of the photos I took around town- bits of Little Rock are going to start showing up in my art over the next few weeks & I am really excited to see how they turn out.
This month has also afforded me the opportunity to daydream & brainstorm with a good friend about a creative venture in her future- an effort to follow her dreams.
What a great month- I can't wait to see what October brings.

The top canvas is 2' x 3' & the bottom one is 20" x 20". I started using a new color- Vivid Red Orange... and I have a huge crush on it. Prepare yourself for a lot of bright orange in the near future. Please check back next Monday to see how the paintings progress.
Friday, September 21, 2012
I started painting this at a friend's house- I was meeting a group of fantastically creative people so we could hang out & paint together. My friend Eric prepared such a wonderful lunch that seeing this painting makes my mouth water because it reminds me so much of that day. I need more days like that- good food AND a room brimming with creative people? Yes please, sign me up. Prints will be available on etsy soon. | <urn:uuid:c565a14f-8608-4cd3-9473-1c41413a5d77> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | http://meowbarkart.blogspot.com/2012/ | 2018-06-24T08:47:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267866926.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20180624083011-20180624103011-00556.warc.gz | en | 0.977886 | 4,337 | [

LONDON (MarketWatch) -- Novartis said Thursday it was cutting 2,500 jobs, joining Pfizer, GlaxoSmithKline and others in the pharmaceutical industry in shedding workers as patent expirations, price pressures and copycat competition hit profits.
Novartis NVS, +1.46% the Basel, Switzerland-based drugmaker, said the elimination of 2.5% of its total workforce will help to simplify organizational structures, accelerate and decentralize decision making and provide productivity gains.
It's expecting $1.6 billion a year to be saved before tax by 2010, and will take a $450 million charge in the fourth quarter related to the costs of the job cuts.
Novartis said its plan, which it dubbed Forward, is designed to help capture opportunities, particularly in emerging markets.
In midday Swiss trading, Novartis shares were up 0.4%. They have lost 8% this year.
The job-cut plan is in addition to a program announced in October to trim 1,200 marketing and sales jobs in the U.S.
"We have taken the opportunity given the short-term, down-cycle in our pharmaceuticals business, to initiate this project," said CEO Daniel Vasella, who had told The Wall Street Journal on Monday that such a move was about to take place.
Novartis has run into problems in getting the diabetes drug Galvus approved and didn't win U.S. approval for Prexige painkiller.
"It is interesting to see that Novartis is taking part in the industry's restructuring movement at a time when it is entering a much more virtuous circle than most of its peers, thanks to approvals and launches for several products such as Exforge, Tekturna, Exelon patch, Aclasta and Tasigna," said Eric Le Berrigaud, an analyst at Raymond James Euro Equities.
He said the estimates from Novartis of a payback of 3.5 times in two years would be, if achieved, "extremely rare" in the pharmaceutical industry.
Vasella said the plan "will simplify our organization and redesign the way we operate."

Vala Rejuvenating Facial Serum – For most of my life, I didn’t care what my skin looked like. If I got the occasional blemish or wrinkle, it was fine, it didn’t bother me. But, I’m considered middle aged right now and I have more wrinkles than what I’m comfortable with. I wasn’t sure where to start to get rid of them. I tried a couple different ‘miracle’ products to no avail. My wrinkles stayed on my face and looked no different than they did months ago. Finally, I found a product that works for me.
Vala Rejuvenating Facial Serum is now my holy grail skin care product. In just a matter of weeks, it got rid of most of my fine lines and wrinkles. And, my skin started looking more and more radiant as time went on. I couldn’t believe the results. Finally, I was happy with how my middle-aged skin looked. It was a fantastic discovery. My husband started asking me what I was doing differently, and to keep it up. If you want to see similar results on yourself, click the button below to get your free trial of Vala Rejuvenating Facial Serum.
How Vala Rejuvenating Facial Serum Works
There are so many facial products out there that claim they’ll help you reverse the aging process on your face. But, not many of them actually work that well. Vala Rejuvenating Facial Serum is one of the few that does what it says it will. Here are some of the benefits my skin and I received by using it regularly:
- My discoloration and dark spots lightened up.
- Most of my wrinkles and fine lines disappeared.
- The puffiness under my eyes went away.
- My skin is now protected from outside forces.
- All signs of stress on my face are gone.
The reason that my skin was in such bad shape at my age was all the time I spent outside when I was younger. The sun is a huge proponent in your skin aging. It has harmful UVA and UVB rays that can seriously damage your skin. The sun makes your skin wrinkle faster and develop dark spots at an alarming rate. One of the only ways to prevent this is sunscreen, but I didn’t wear that every day. I’ve had some of the spots for years, but Vala Rejuvenating Facial Serum got rid of them in only a matter of weeks.
The Ingredients in Vala Rejuvenating Facial Serum
The two things that contributed the most to my healed skin were collagen molecules and peptides. I recently learned that as you get older, your skin produces less and less collagen with each year. But, you need collagen to stop your skin from appearing old. Without collagen, your skin develops wrinkles, fine lines, and it starts to look saggy. I refused to accept that. The peptides inside of Vala Facial Serum encourage your skin to produce more collagen of its own. That combined with the collagen molecules inside Vala Rejuvenating Facial Serum make your skin look way younger than it would on its own.
Your Vala Rejuvenating Facial Serum Trial Bottle
It’s obvious that I love Valla Rejuvenating Facial Serum, but I want you to love it to. It gets rid of wrinkles, fine lines, dark spots, and discoloration in just weeks. I couldn’t believe the results. And, it’s made with all-natural ingredients. When I use skin care products with fake fragrance or chemicals, my skin usually reacts badly to it. My skin has had no problems with his. If you don’t believe me, try it for yourself.

After Tuesday's death of Collier County's longtime clerk of courts, voters will decide who should succeed him.
Dwight Brock, 64, the county's clerk since 1992, died Tuesday afternoon at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, where he was awaiting a lung transplant. After winning his seventh term in 2016, he was eligible to keep the clerk's job until at least 2020.
Anyone who wants to serve the rest of his term will have until noon June 22 to qualify to get on the ballot. Multiple candidates from the same party would have to run in the Aug. 28 primary. The general election is scheduled for Nov. 6.
Typically, candidates running for public office in Florida have three ways to qualify: by paying a filing fee based on the position's salary, by petition or as a write-in candidate. But it's too late to qualify by petition to become the clerk of courts, said Dave Carpenter, qualifying officer for the Collier Supervisor of Elections.
The total fee for clerk candidates running with a party affiliation is $ 8,677.26. If a candidate decides to run without affiliation, the associated fee would be $5,784.84.
The yearly salary for clerk of courts in Collier is $144,621.
By law, if an office becomes vacant before the qualifying deadline, it is put on the ballot, Carpenter said.
"The door closes a week from Friday," he said.
Until a new clerk is elected, Gov. Rick Scott can appoint an interim clerk to serve until Nov. 13, a week after the Nov. 6 general election.
The governor's office is considering an appointment, but there is no timeline yet for when an interim clerk would be appointed, said Ashley Cook, Scott's press secretary.
To fill the position until the governor selects an interim officer, Chief Judge Michael McHugh of the 20th Judicial Circuit can appoint a temporary clerk.
"The chief judge is working on that," said Sara Miles, spokeswoman for the circuit.
In the meantime, the clerk's office continues to be "fully operational," said Crystal Kinzel, chief deputy clerk for Collier.
"Obviously, Dwight set up a great legacy," she said. "We're here working, and the office will continue operating the way Dwight wanted it."
Brock's former colleagues in the office, many of whom have known him and worked with him for many years, are in "grief mode," Kinzel said.

Tiny plastic spheres target inoperable liver tumors in conjunction with chemotherapy
HOUSTON — Radiologists from Synergy Radiology Associates (SRA), which provides the highest level of minimally invasive expertise in the Houston metropolitan area, are performing a new, advanced treatment for inoperable liver tumors. The minimally invasive treatment, Selective Internal Radiation Therapy (SIRT) or Y-90 radioembolization, can be performed along with chemotherapy.
“SIRT is an important component to the multidisciplinary approach to liver cancer, and we are excited to be able to offer it to our patients,” said SRA interventional radiologist Michael Richter, M.D. “This minimally invasive procedure has shown promising results in controlling liver cancer while maintaining a good quality of life for the patient.”
During SIRT treatment, millions of SIR-Spheres® microspheres are delivered through blood vessels directly to the tumor site.
SRA radiologists are now performing the procedure at Memorial Hermann The Woodlands Hospital and Memorial Hermann Southwest Hospital. Most patients are usually able to go home four to six hours after the procedure, and the reported side effects are few. Most patients experience flu-like symptoms for a period of one to two weeks after the procedure. SIRT can be used for primary liver cancers as well as metastatic disease in the liver, such as colorectal and breast cancer.
“We’re always looking at new treatments that provide the most benefit for referring physicians and their patients,” said SRA President Walid Adham, M.D. “Our radiologists provide the highest level of minimally invasive expertise in Houston, and we’re pleased to help make this new procedure available to Houston area residents.”
Often used for both primary and metastatic tumors in the liver, SIR-Spheres microspheres are the only fully FDA-approved microspheres for colorectal cancer that has metastasized to the liver.
For more information on SIRT and other minimally invasive procedures, visit http://synergyrad.org/our-services/vascular-and-interventional. Physician practices interested in learning more about Y-90 radioembolization should contact the Synergy Radiology interventional team at 713-897-5853.

Three years ago, Gordon Green, then 55, rejected his primary-care doctor’s suggestion that he get screened for lung cancer.
But Green’s history of smoking a pack a day for 30 years and his doctor’s insistence changed his mind. And when his low-dose CT scan (LDCT) identified an early stage tumor in his left lung, Green underwent surgery at Lahey Hospital & Medical Center, a teaching affiliate of the Tufts University School of Medicine, Burlington, Mass. He has been cancer-free since. “It wasn’t so long ago that lung cancer was a death sentence,” he said. | <urn:uuid:aeb3e0fa-6b22-45cf-986f-59d8712a9c32> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | http://synergyrad.org/news/events/ | 2018-06-18T13:19:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267860557.7/warc/CC-MAIN-20180618125242-20180618145242-00276.warc.gz | en | 0.922326 | 2,027 | [

Within the 20th century, American mathematicians started to make serious advances in a box formerly ruled by means of Europeans. Harvard's arithmetic division was once on the heart of those advancements. A heritage in Sum is an inviting account of the pioneers who trailblazed a particularly American culture of mathematics--in algebraic geometry and topology, advanced research, quantity idea, and a number of esoteric subdisciplines that experience hardly ever been written approximately outdoor of magazine articles or complex textbooks. The heady mathematical strategies that emerged, and the lads and girls who formed them, are defined the following in full of life, obtainable prose.
The tale starts in 1825, whilst a precocious sixteen-year-old freshman, Benjamin Peirce, arrived on the university. He could develop into the 1st American to provide unique mathematics--an ambition frowned upon in an period while professors mostly restricted themselves to instructing. Peirce's successors--William Fogg Osgood and Maxime Bôcher--undertook the duty of remodeling the maths division right into a world-class study middle, attracting to the school such luminaries as George David Birkhoff. Birkhoff produced a blinding physique of labor, whereas education a iteration of innovators--students like Marston Morse and Hassler Whitney, who solid novel pathways in topology and different components. Influential figures from all over the world quickly flocked to Harvard, a few overcoming nice demanding situations to pursue their elected calling.
A heritage in Sum elucidates the contributions of those amazing minds and makes transparent why the background of the Harvard arithmetic division is a necessary a part of the historical past of arithmetic in the US and beyond.
This booklet tells the story of the way arithmetic constructed at Harvard--and by way of extension within the United States--since early days. it really is choked with interesting tales approximately a few of the mythical names of recent arithmetic. either fanatics of arithmetic and readers fascinated about the heritage of Harvard will take pleasure in it. (Edward Witten, Professor of Physics, Institute for complicated Study)
A heritage in Sum is a gorgeous tribute to a stunning topic, one who illuminates arithmetic during the lens of a few of its such a lot extraordinary practitioners. The authors' love of arithmetic shines via each bankruptcy, as they use obtainable and lively language to explain a wealth of heady insights and the all-too-human tales of the minds that came upon them. there's maybe no higher e-book for immersion into the curious and compelling background of mathematical idea. (Brian Greene, Professor of arithmetic & Physics, Columbia University)
The ebook is written in a leisurely variety, the scope is remarkably vast, and the subjects lined are defined astonishingly good. as soon as i began the ebook, I easily couldn't placed it down and that i used to be ecstatic to simply comprehend very important arithmetic faraway from my very own examine pursuits. (Joel Smoller, Professor of arithmetic, collage of Michigan)
A background in Sum features a wealth of fine tales, tales that visit the center of the improvement of arithmetic during this nation. The authors achieve humanizing and enlivening what could rather be a dry remedy of the topic. (Ron Irving, Professor of arithmetic, collage of Washington)

One could go to Europe—Göttingen, Germany, was a popular destination for mathematically inclined young Americans—but this was not a realistic possibility for Peirce, mainly for financial reasons. It appears that his family could not afford the luxury of sending him to school abroad; instead, he had to start earning a living soon after graduation. He taught for two years at Round Hill School, a preparatory school in Northampton, Massachusetts, before returning to Harvard in 1831 to work as a tutor.
76 During the 1879–80 academic year, Peirce was engaged in the study of cosmology—or “cosmical physics,” as he called it. He planned to teach a course on the subject in the following year, but his health failed him. Peirce died on October 6, 1880, before he had the chance to explain the universe—its origins, formation, and evolution—to those Harvard students capable of following his often vexing style of discourse. Peirce approached death stoically, girded by his lifelong faith. He expressed no great sorrow, for instance, when his father died in 1831 at the age of fifty-three.
53 In his dedication to Linear Associative Algebra, Peirce characterized the tract as “the pleasantest mathematical effort of my life.

Boating in Albany
Albany Yacht Club is Located 146 miles north of New York City and 8 miles south of the entrance to the NYS Canal System on the east bank of the Hudson River, which is a freshwater tidal estuary at that point. Overhead bridge clearances are 135’ from NYC up to AYC, and then drop to 60’ immediately north of the club (and to 21’ nine miles further north). The recreational and sightseeing opportunities are incredible, and boaters are encouraged to make the trip not just once in a lifetime, but repeatedly so that they may attempt to take in all that the area has to offer.
The club’s docks are floating fingers. The river is tidal with a lift of to 5 feet between low and high tide, and generally a 1kt current during tide cycles.

If you do not have a boat but still want to get out on the river to check it out, there are two tour boats that pass by AYC regularly:
The Captain JP Cruise Line departs from 278 River Street in Troy (7 miles north of AYC on the east shore).
Now and then you might notice other cruise ships passing by AYC. There are two overnight cruise companies; Blount Small Ship Adventures, whose boats are sized to pass through the New York State Canal System, and American Cruise Lines whose boats can only go north as far as Troy, and then must head back.

Getting into Boating
While there’s certainly agreement among recreational mariners about boating being one of the highest quality, most rewarding, and memorable of all leisure activities, it does require resource commitment. So before taking the plunge, it makes sense to research what type of boating one might want to do (powerboating, sailing, fishing, watersports), and what level of amenities will meet one’s expectations. A new boater can get into this sport for as little as a few hundred dollars by buying a boat and trailer off of someone’s lawn – but it only goes up from there.
As mentioned before, if you do not have a boat, you can get introduced to the Hudson River in Albany by riding on a tour boat, or you could visit one the many Hudson River waterfront parks, or you could join a rowing club. What are generally not available locally, though, are boat rentals. If you want to rent a boat, you have to drive west a bit and then there are a bunch of rentals available along the canal.
Once you consider boat ownership, there are several places to shop. For new or used boats you could go to any local dealership, or shop online at boats.com or boattrader.com (nationwide boat exchanges that enable local searches). There are also want ad sites like Want Ad Digest, and, of course, Craig’s List. If it seems intimidating going to a dealership when only casually shopping, try attending a boat show. These are usually held in the winter (NYC, Syracuse, Troy, Glens Falls), but there’s also an end-of-the-season Clear ‘em Out show in Syracuse (by the way, you don’t have to wait until September for “clear ‘em out” specials – any boat left in the showroom after 4th of July is considered a leftover).
A good place to look up boat specifications is boattest.com, but we cannot stress enough the importance of talking directly to boaters. The Albany Yacht Club encourages prospective boaters to come down to the club, meet boaters, and get a good understanding of what is involved. We are not just yacht club members, but ambassadors of the sport.
One thing that often gets overlooked when considering boating is the financial benefit. If the boat you select has a small head (bathroom) and galley (kitchen) then the interest on its loan is tax deductable because the boat qualifies as a second home. Additionally, the only tax you pay on it is the sales tax when you initially purchase it. After that there are no more taxes; unlike a lakefront second home that has thousands of dollars a year in property tax liability. Another added benefit is that a boat is mobile, so you get a fresh change of scenery every time you take it out, unlike a second home. | <urn:uuid:8d991d63-1bf1-4fe8-9854-c5dbad52e650> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://www.albanyyachtclub.com/boating-albany/ | 2018-06-18T13:09:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267860557.7/warc/CC-MAIN-20180618125242-20180618145242-00276.warc.gz | en | 0.934671 | 1,332 | [

The news came out on Tuesday that the International Olympic Committee (IOC) wanted to cut wrestling from the 2020 Olympic Games. As expected, there was a lot of anger towards that decision. I think that anger was warranted.
The good news is it's not as simple as wrestling being dropped from the Olympics with no hope of it ever coming back. Here's a quote from IOC President Jacques Rogge:
The vote of yesterday is not an elimination of wrestling from the Olympic Games. Wrestling will participate in the games in Rio de Janeiro. To the athletes who train now, I say, 'Continue training for your participation in Rio. Your federation is working for the inclusion in the 2020 Games.' (CBC)
Take a deep breath. It's not completely gone. There's going to be a final decision made in September where we'll know if wrestling will still be a part of the Olympic Games.
The question is why is it even on the chopping block? Wrestling is a sport that was in the first Olympic Games in Greece in 1896. As a son of Greek parents, I can tell you how much the Olympics means to my family going back several generations.
Olympic Wrestling is a Traditional Sport
Wrestling is one of the sports that the Olympics was built on. It's a sport that defines what the Olympics are about just like track and field is. And the IOC wants to take it away? That's not right.
When you talk about amateur sports in the Olympics, usually it's a case of athletes competing in a sport either as teens, collegiate athletes or people at a young age where they are preparing for a professional career in that sport. Some of the competitors are already pros too. Pro wrestling, as usual, is a little bit different.
Pro wrestling, which is what we refer to what WWE does, isn't the same as amateur wrestling obviously. There are theatrics, they do what they can to entertain the audience and, of course, the results are predetermined. However, pro wrestling has a tie-in to amateur wrestling because there are many performers that come from the amateur field.
My issue with dumping wrestling from the Olympics is not even about whether I watch the sport. I can honestly say I don't watch it that much although in the Olympics I do.
I'm a jock. I love watching sports with the "big four" North American sports (NFL—also college football, NBA—also college basketball, MLB, NHL) at the top of my list. I watch soccer (or world football) when they have their major international tournaments and also on a casual level as well.
I also love the Olympics. Without question the track and field events are my favorite, but I try to watch as much as I can to soak in the experience as best I can.
The reason I pay attention to Olympic wrestling is because I enjoy watching athletes compete at the highest level. To see athletes busting their ass after years of training in their particular sport and trying to earn a medal for their country is inspiring.
It's fun to see how happy those athletes are when they get on a podium and are presented with their gold, silver or bronze medal around their neck. A lot of times even athletes that finish out of the medals are proud of where they finished because they got to experience competing in the Olympics.
Kurt Angle is an Olympic and Pro Wrestling Legend
When you think about pro wrestlers with ties to Olympic wrestling the first name that comes to mind is Kurt Angle. As I'm sure you've heard many times before, Angle is pro wrestling's only Olympic gold medalist.
He won the gold for the United States in the 1996 Atlanta Olympics with, to quote him from a memorable promo, "a broken freakin' neck." Angle won the gold in the 100kg (220 pounds) weight class. If you've never seen it here it is:
Kurt Angle's story is a long one, but here's the short version. After winning the gold Angle had a tough time finding a career he liked. He tried sportscasting as well as doing commercials. Nothing really stuck for him. He attended an ECW event in late 1996, but he didn't like it and spoke poorly about pro wrestling after it.
In late 1998 he signed a deal with WWE. For the next year he trained to wrestle, adapted to it very quickly, worked house shows and debuted at Survivor Series 1999, an event that I witnessed in person in Detroit. I thought it was interesting that WWE would debut him as a villain, but then I saw the brilliance behind it. He went out there, got booed because he was a cocky jerk and then he would rip on the audience for booing a guy that won a gold medal for their country.
Normally people are appreciative of athletes that win a gold for their country, but not in pro wrestling if the guy is a jerk. It worked. That night I knew he would be a star, but I didn't know how great he would become.
From there you likely know the rest of the Angle story. He had what I would consider the best rookie year in wrestling history. Within one year he went on to win multiple titles including the WWE Title as he beat The Rock at No Mercy 2000 in October. By the end of 2000 he was one of the best in-ring performers in the company.
From 2001 to 2005 to me he was the best performer in the company whether he was a villain or a hero. In 2006 he left WWE and has been the biggest name in TNA Wrestling ever since.
Angle is one of my five favorite wrestlers ever. Why? Because not only is he an outstanding in-ring performer, capable of cutting great promos and elevating others around him, but he also worked as hard as anybody I've ever seen. His intensity is off the charts.
The best part about Angle is that his competitive nature makes his matches feel "real" and isn't that what pro wrestlers should try to do? It's not like he was given a push just because he won a gold medal. He earned everything he got in pro wrestling. Does he currently tweet some silly things? Yeah, but that doesn't take away from his amazing career as a pro wrestler.
I applaud Angle's current employer TNA Wrestling for the article on its website about the issue. In the article, Angle commented on the matter:
Wrestling is one of the most competitive sports in the world today. Winning the gold for my country in one of the original Olympic sports was one of the greatest moments in my life. The wrestling community is in a state of shock with this decision – we cannot sit back and allow this to happen. I will do whatever it takes and work with my company TNA WRESTLING and the competitive wrestling community to determine what we need to do to reverse this decision.
The article also saw TNA encourage WWE to get involved in this issue to try to spread the word about how important Olympic wrestling is. I hope WWE gets involved because it's the biggest wrestling organization in the world and its reach can't be touched by anybody. As a company that has hired many of them and continually scouts amateur wrestlers, WWE knows how important they are to the success of its company.
Pro Wrestlers with Ties to Amateur Wrestling
There was also former WWE Champion The Iron Sheik, who competed for Iran in the 1968 Olympics and later became a coach for the United States. Eventually he made his way to the World Wrestling Federation where he became a legend known for making people humble.
Over the years there have been a number of outstanding collegiate wrestlers that didn’t make it to the Olympics, but they had those dreams just like Angle. Names like Brock Lesnar, Shelton Benjamin, Charlie Haas, Jack Swagger and Dolph Ziggler to name a few. When I say a "few," I mean it.
There are dozens of wrestlers past and present with ties to amateur wrestling, not only at the collegiate level but also in high school as well. (I could write a lot about MMA competitors with amateur wrestling backgrounds too, but I want to keep the focus on pro wrestling.)
In a lot of cases, if you watched pro wrestling on television you were likely drawn to amateur wrestling because there are similarities there.
What was the goal for those amateur wrestlers? The Olympics. If you take that opportunity away from athletes just because the IOC deems field hockey, modern pentathlon, taekwondo and canoe kayaking more important (those events were in the final voting), then you're not encouraging the youth to participate in sports.
Isn't that what the Olympics are supposed to be about? To teach kids to follow their dreams, reach the highest level and compete to win a model for their country? That's what it should be about.
Olympic Wrestling is a Worldwide Sport
Here's the fact about wrestling that really sticks out to me: Wrestling featured 344 athletes competing in 11 medal events in freestyle and seven in Greco-Roman at last year's London Olympic Games. They also added women's wrestling to the Olympics at the 2004 Athens Games.
There were 29 countries that won medals in wrestling events in the London Games. It's truly a worldwide sport, yet they're going to take it away? It doesn't make sense to me.
I think amateur wrestling is the kind of sport that teaches athletes how to train the right way, work hard and gain discipline from a young age. Obviously going from amateur wrestling to a pro wrestling career is not an easy transition, but I think those that could adapt learned a lot from their training. It would be nice if athletes could still have those same Olympic dreams rather than having them taken away because some old guys in charge aren't as supportive as they should be.
There Are Ways to Get Involved
It's cool to see that the Keep Wrestling in the Olympics page on Facebook has over 60,000 likes in a day. That's great. Go like it, visit it and read the posts they are making because the only way this decision is going to change is if the fans of competitive sports speak their mind on this subject. There are petitions out there too.
You can also tweet the IOC at @IOCMedia although I doubt that's going to work very well since it looks like one of those corporate accounts that merely links to news without ever talking to people.
There are two petitions I'd suggest signing. One is the WhiteHouse.org petition, which has over 17,000 signatures as of Wednesday.
There's also a Change.org petition that has over 23,000 signatures by Wednesday. I've never been a big petition guy, but for something like this I had no problem putting my name on there.
The reason I wrote this is because I love pro wrestling. As somebody that loves "this business" (Triple H's favorite phrase) I realize how important amateur wrestling is to the form of entertainment that I enjoy watching so much every week for over 25 years of my life.
If you're a fan of pro wrestling then you should do your part to have your voice heard because it has an effect on all of us. Hopefully when the final decision is made in September we'll see that wrestling remains an Olympic sport in 2020 and beyond.

Ginger Hodulik was educating at The Face & Body Spa Conference & Expo. Ginger Hodulik is a member of The Center for Nutrition Advocacy, and a volunteer with American Nutrition Association. Ginger also serves on the legislative outreach committee for the certification board for Nutrition Specialists. Ginger says that some mindful tools for stress is to practice gratitude, set intentions at meal time, start and end the day with thanks, focus on abdominal breathing, meditate, visualize outcomes, and remove the toxic. Ginger explained that stress shows up on your skin, and that food types matter. According to Ginger Fiber & Fat is good, and Protein satisfies. Ginger notes to all that Good Food = Good Skin Quality. | <urn:uuid:8e8e1301-8db5-45c8-8cc0-f004cfce9a58> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | http://progressforpoland.com/ginger-hodulik-talks-practices-for-healthy-skin-at-face-body-spa-conference-expo-midwest/ | 2018-06-20T13:19:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267863519.49/warc/CC-MAIN-20180620124346-20180620144346-00276.warc.gz | en | 0.943688 | 141 | [

Last Week: 4-3
This Week: SEA (4/24-26); at NYY (4/27-29)
So, What Happened?
The Tigers did what they needed to do in Kansas City and then scuffled at home against the buzzsaw that is the Texas Rangers.
The Royals and Rangers are two teams going in completely opposite directions, and the Tigers’ results reflected that: a sweep in KC, and a 1-3 record against the Rangers in Detroit.
The Rangers are a bunch of mashers who put more pressure on you than a pop quiz. They hit, they run, they steal, they milk pitch counts, they pitch and they field. Other than that, they’re not much of a team.
In between games of a DH on Saturday, the Tigers optioned maligned and struggling LHP Daniel Schlereth to Toledo and purchased the contract of RHP Thad Weber, who had a 0.75 ERA in 12 innings with the Mud Hens.
Schlereth needed to be put out of his (and the fans’) misery, with a 10.29 ERA this season as he pitched batting practice every time out. MMM would agree, as Schlereth was last week’s Goat.
On Sunday, Terry Foster of the Detroit News suggested that another player be put out of his misery as well. MMM will give you one guess who that is!
On Monday, a certain ace’s pitch count became an issue (more on that in a few sentences).
Hero of the Week
In what is sure to be a constant theme, MMM is going with Justin Verlander, who has already had to play the role of Tigers’ stopper—winning over the Rangers on Saturday (Game 2) in a game that felt like the “must win” variety, even though it was just April 21.
Were it not for JV, who also won on Monday in KC, the Tigers would have been swept in four games by the red-hot Rangers.
For whatever reason, Saturday’s game two felt like desperation for the Tigers, who were outclassed by Texas by an aggregate score of 20-6 in the series’ first two games.
Enter Verlander, who labored through six innings (115 pitches) of annoyingly patient and hard-working Rangers bats, allowing just one unearned run and doing what an ace does: shut down the opposition when it’s badly needed.
On Monday, Verlander pitched a complete-game, 131-pitch epic match to notch his first win of the season.
That outing sent Tigers Nation all atwitter, literally and figuratively. The phones lit up the switchboard of talk radio like a Christmas tree with folks debating whether manager Jim Leyland was either reckless or fearless in leaving JV in for all those pitches.
The final pitch, a 100 mph strike at the knees and on the black, froze Alex Gordon with the bases loaded.
MMM, for one, loved the drama and thinks all the hand-wringing is for naught.
Honorable mention: rookie LHP Drew Smyly, who had two strong outings and survived a blistering line drive right between the numbers on the back of his jersey in Kansas City.
Goat of the Week
MMM would love to give this award to Schlereth yet again, but why speak ill of the dead?
Instead, MMM’s vitriol is reserved for last week’s UtM designee, Brandon Inge.
Inge, as Foster accurately wrote, seems to be letting the fans’ treatment get to him. He has one hit this year (albeit a game-winning HR) and his at-bats continue to be laced with pop-ups and strikeouts. Even his supposedly reliable glove was suspect last week, committing errors and making poor decisions.
We could be seeing the first drumming out of town of a Tiger by fan treatment and pressure since Jason Grilli.
It’s a perfect storm: Inge’s already polarizing presence; his poor hitting; his shaky glove; and the fact that, sans Schlereth, there really isn’t another Tiger who the fans are angry with.
Under the Microscope
MMM is tired of putting Inge here, so this week’s UtM designee is Rick Porcello.
MMM is putting Ricky UtM because of MMM’s curiosity re: how Porcello will respond to his first awful outing of the year: Saturday’s one-inning, 8 ER, 10 hit debacle.
Entering Saturday, Porcello had pitched 14.2 innings and allowed just three earned runs.
His ERA jumped from below 2.00 to over 6.00 in one start.
So just when you thought Porcello might be ready to take the next step toward being a reliable starter, he craps the bed against the Rangers. Granted, Texas can mash, but MMM is worried that Saturday was more indicative of who Porcello truly is, rather than what his first two starts showed.
We’ll see come Thursday, when Porcello toes the rubber against Seattle.
Upcoming: Mariners, Yankees
Just like last week, this week features a warm up act prior to the main event.
Last week it was the Royals before the Rangers; now it’s the Mariners before the Yankees.
Seattle was the victim of a perfect game on Saturday by Chicago’s Phil Humber. The Mariners are offensively challenged, the perfect game notwithstanding, as that can happen to anyone.
But the Mariners can pitch a little bit, and last year in an early-season series in Detroit, the Ms swept the Tigers, and they took two of three in Seattle in April, too. So they’ve played the Tigers tough lately.
But the Mariners’ offense is pitiful; the leading hitter among regulars is batting .275 and many of the starters are below .250 with no power. Even 1B Justin Smoak, who has terrorized the Tigers recently, is scuffling at .203 with two homers.
Ahh, but then it’s the Yankees, in New York.
Another early season litmus test, MMM thinks.
You can’t overstate the importance of games with teams like the Yankees, who the Tigers don’t play very often. This will be their only trip to New York—in the regular season.
The Yanks are off to a fine start and that includes aging SS Derek Jeter, who’s hitting above .360. Curtis Granderson had a three-homer game last week and has six taters overall.
They famously came back from a 9-0 deficit on Saturday in Boston, scoring 14 runs in the seventh and eighth innings to win, 15-9.
The Yankees also remember all too well that their season ended on their home turf last year at the hands of the Tigers, with Alex Rodriguez swinging and missing in Game 5 of the ALDS.

We’re well aware that the Yoder Smokers Pellet Grills are incredibly versatile machines, capable of smoking, grilling and more.

So, fire up the grill and make yourself some of these Balsamic Tri-tip Steak Skewers & Grilled Veggies for a flavor packed dinner that you can feel great about!
The Boston Butt pork shoulder is a truly versatile cut of of meat. It adapts well to all sorts of cuisines and can be finished in a variety of textures. This Italian Roast Pork Shoulder is finished at slicing temperatures, making it perfect for sandwiches, but equally enjoyable over pasta or as a stand alone entree.

Chef Eric Gephart is back with another amazing recipe. This time he takes the classic BLT (bacon, lettuce, tomato) sandwich and takes it up a notch by replacing the bacon with brisket. Enjoy!
Spring is upon us, so hopefully everyone who hasn’t been grilling and smoking all winter long is dusting off the smoker and ready to kick out some killer tacos!

You’ve made the pastrami, now it’s time for the ultimate pastrami sandwich! The Pastrami Reuben. The only thing that makes a homemade Pastrami Reuben better is homemade sauerkraut. With a little patience, you’ll find yourself enjoying one of the greatest sandwiches you’ve ever tasted!
Last month Chef Tom of All Things Barbecue was invited to the Food Network & Cooking Channel’s South Beach Wine & Food Festival in Miami to cook in both the Burger Bash and Beachside BBQ events. Today we share his Bacon Jam Smash Burger recipe, which was cooked for a crowd of 4000 at the Burger Bash! It’s a simple burger with HUGE flavor, and the Bacon Jam, which is the star of the show, is not only good on burgers, but so much more! Make sure to bookmark this recipe!
We’re going big on flavor this week with these Chorizo Stuffed Pork Chops and Smoked Salsa Verde! The pork is first marinated in a scratch-made mixture of fruit juices, tequila and aromatics, then stuffed with salty chorizo and cotija cheese before getting some char on the Kamado Joe Classic Joe II. Couple that with the bright flavors and smokiness of the salsa verde, and you’ve got a winning combination!
Warning: This is not an ordinary steak sandwich. Between the char kissed, thin sliced tri-tip roast, the huge flavor of a scratch-made sweet tomato jam, the creamy cilantro cream cheese spread, quick pickled red onions and toasted bolillo bun, this is decidedly an extraordinary Tri-Tip Steak Sandwich. Proceed with warranted excitement!

Do you ever wonder why the typical prayer meeting yields so few results? I do. I grapple with it continuously. I am certain the problem cannot be with an all-knowing, all-loving, all-powerful God, so it must be with us and our prayers.
After all these years, do we still not know how to pray? I believe that as best we know how, we do pray according to God’s Word and in the Spirit both earnestly and honestly. Yet, more often than not, we see little or no results. Why is that?
Could it be that a conflict of interest is the cause of our poor success rate? Perhaps we do not correctly discern the will of God in our circumstances—be it illness, financial woes, or troubled relationships? The Word clearly says we are to count it all joy when we fall into various trials1—the trials of our faith that make us stronger Christians and shape us into the image of Christ.2
A closer look might reveal that most of our prayers are asking God to change or remove those circumstances—which are possibly the same circumstances He Himself orchestrated for our shaping. If that is the case, are those prayers not counterproductive to His plan to mature us and make us like Jesus?
Of course they are! We may simply have our eyes on the wrong goal. We want the good life—abundant and carefree—and plead with God to keep it so. Yet, God wants us to grow up spiritually and be useful to Him in reaching a lost world. Clearly, there is a conflict of interest here.
Jesus came to earth clothed in flesh to provide for God a human body in which to walk, talk, teach, and heal—thus displaying to the world the good nature of our Creator. He perfectly modeled His Father’s character of love, kindness, mercy and forgiveness. Then, sacrificing His life for the sake of others, Jesus set the example for all future believers to follow.
Therefore, every born-again Christian is called to follow in the footsteps of Jesus by yielding their own bodies as a living sacrifice for God to work through on earth.3 Our trials and troubles become the opportunities for God to do just that, making the difficulties we face today the will of God for us.4
We would all probably admit that some scriptures don’t seem to work for us. For instance, this one: “If we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of Him.”5 Perhaps we have been tempted to question the validity of this scripture based on our past experience. Yet, if a trial is God’s will for us and we pray for Him to remove it, we are asking against His will rather than according to His will.
Counterproductive prayers could very well be the reason we are not getting what we ask of God.
Once we understand this, we will still pray over our troubles and woes, but at the end of each prayer we will deliberately give God our permission to do as He sees fit.6 The prayer so perfectly modeled by our Savior, “Yet not my will, but yours be done,” will become our prayer too.7
In that place of total surrender to God’s will, we put our lives into the hands of a loving Heavenly Father and accept what He chooses to give or not to give. While it may not be what we want to hear, that is where we will find rest for our souls and more answers to our prayers. ~ Janie Kellogg
